PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
OVERVIEW
      Medical Discoveries, Inc. is a Utah corporation incorporated on November 20, 1991. Our address is 1338 S. Foothill Drive, #266, Salt Lake City, Utah 84108, our telephone number is (801) 582-9583 and our web address is www.medicaldiscoveries.com.
      We are a developmental-stage bio-pharmaceutical company engaged in the research, validation, development and ultimate commercialization of two drugs: MDI-P and SaveCream. MDI-P is an anti-infective drug that we believe will be a safe and effective treatment for bacterial infections, viral infections and fungal infections. SaveCream is a breast cancer medication that is applied topically to reduce breast cancer tumors. Both of these drugs are still in development and have not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
      Our initial target indications for MDI-P are Cystic Fibrosis and HIV. We have filed an Investigatory New Drug application (IND) with the FDA seeking permission to begin Phase I human clinical trials of MDI-P as a treatment for Cystic Fibrosis. The FDA has responded to our IND and we are hopeful that we can satisfactorily answer the FDA’s questions and satisfy the FDA’s follow-up requests for further animal testing, resulting in the FDA approving the application. If the FDA approves that IND, we will begin human trials at St. Luke’s Regional Medical Center in Boise, Idaho using a protocol designed by Dr. Henry Thompson. If our Phase I IND for Cystic Fibrosis is successful, we intend to file an IND for Phase I testing of MDI-P as a treatment for HIV at Harvard School of Medicine using a protocol designed by Dr. Bruce Dezube. We also expect to add additional indications for the use of MDI-P in the future as we further our pre-clinical development.
      We recently purchased SaveCream from a German biotechnology company. In a European Union study of SaveCream used by over 100 women diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer, a significant number of those women experienced a significant tumor reduction. This study, while preliminary, indicates that SaveCream may be substantially more effective and faster acting than similar drugs already on the market. We are in the process of developing a global commercialization strategy for SaveCream.
      To date, we have not generated significant revenues from operations or realized a profit. Through December 31, 2004, we had incurred a cumulative net loss since inception of $19,353,933.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
      Savetherapeutics Asset Acquisition. On March 16, 2005 we announced the completed acquisition of the intellectual property assets of Savetherapeutics AG, a German biotechnology company headquartered in Hamburg. The purchase price was 2,350,000 (approximately $3.1 million). Savetherapeutics (SaveT) has been developing SaveCream, a topical steroidal form of aromatase inhibitor (AI) for breast cancer.
      This promising cancer therapeutic product has been tested in the European Union under a unique German regulatory scheme that allows terminal patients to receive novel treatments. In the study, over 100 women diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer received special permission to be treated with SaveCream. A significant number of those women experienced significant tumor reduction. This study indicates substantially improved efficacy in reduction of breast tumors, in shorter time frames than the three approved AIs currently on the market. We are in the process of developing a global commercialization strategy for SaveCream.
      M.A.G. Capital, LLC (formerly Mercator Advisory Group, LLC), through its designated funds, Mercator Momentum Fund, L.P., and Mercator Momentum Fund III, L.P., provided us with $3 million for the acquisition.
      We expect to perform additional CMC (chemistry manufacturing and control) work and expand the clinical trials over 2005, and believe this will open the door to commercialization opportunities for SaveCream

by late 2006, which may be quicker than we can commercialize MDI-P. This acquisition also allows us to diversify our product base.
      Cystic Fibrosis IND. We are continuing to prosecute our IND for Cystic Fibrosis with the FDA. We have agreed with the FDA on a large animal model protocol to establish pharmacological safety with relation to cardio and central nervous system toxicity for this IND. We expect to begin that phase of testing in the very near future and to start Phase I clinical trials on Cystic Fibrosis in Q4 of 2005.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
      Our highest priorities are to:
  •  gain FDA approval of our IND for Cystic Fibrosis and commence human clinical trials;
 
  •  file an IND for HIV; and
 
  •  develop a commercialization strategy for SaveCream.
      Our secondary priorities are the completion of a longer-range strategic business plan in which we utilize the intellectual property and analysis that has been developed over the last decade and determine an appropriate direction for future development of the business over the next five years. Some of the issues we will be dealing with will include:
  •  Listing the Company’s common stock on a stock exchange or NASDAQ
 
  •  How to provide shareholders with liquidity, transparency and a return on investment
 
  •  A decision on whether or when to relocate the Company or maintain its current location
 
  •  A decision as to what staffing requirements the Company will have, when to bring additional permanent staff on board and the best route for recruiting those staff members
 
  •  Additional target indications and the formulation and development process required for those target indications
 
  •  A comprehensive intellectual property strategy
 
  •  A potential partnering strategy
 
  •  Projected long-term financing requirements
MDI-P: NOVEL ANTI-INFECTIVE TECHNOLOGY
      MDI-P is an anti-effective drug that we believe will be a safe and effective treatment for bacterial infections, viral infections and fungal infections. MDI-P appears to work by virtue of the direct virus-, bacteria- and fungus-killing effect of several of the powerful oxidants present in the MDI-P solution. The MDI-P solution contains oxidants such as various hypochlorous acid chains, ozone and dilute hydrogen peroxide. These oxidants, traditionally believed to have a very short half-life in their natural state, seem to exhibit stability of several months or longer in MDI-P.
      During the past nine years, we have conducted a variety of cell line testing at the following university and medical research institutions, among others:
  Stratton V.A. Medical Center, Albany, New York
  Albany Medical College, Albany, New York
  Indiana University School Of Medicine And Dentistry
  University of California, Los Angeles
  Baylor College of Medicine and Dentistry, Dallas, Texas
  Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts
  University of Washington Medical School

      Highlights from those tests include the following:
  •  In 1998, we initiated in vitro testing, conducted at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts, a major teaching affiliate of the Harvard Medical School. The results of this independent testing confirmed that MDI-P achieved destruction of more than 90% of the HIV virus in cell cultures, with no toxicity to the cells.
 
  •  In 2000, data and results published by Dr. Aldonna Baltch, M.D., of the Stratton V.A. Medical Center and Albany Medical College, Albany NY, indicated that MDI-P is a potent antibacterial and anti-fungal agent. Dr. Baltch’s work demonstrated that MDI-P was effective in destroying the fungi Candida albicans and Legionella pneumophillia (Legionnaire’s Disease) within 60 seconds of exposure to the fungi with no evidence of cell toxicity. This work was published in The American Journal of Infection Control in 2000 and as abstracts of the American Society of Microbiology meetings in 1997 and 1998.
 
  •  Toxicity tests completed in 2001 by WIL Research Laboratories demonstrated that various strengths of MDI-P (up to a 50% solution strength) produced no systemic toxicity in laboratory animal tests used to assess potential problems for human application. These studies were conducted following FDA guidelines and have helped establish that MDI-P is reasonably safe for human clinical trials.
 
  •  In 2004, Dr. Emil Chi, Chairman of the Department of Histopathology at the University of Washington Medical School conducted a mouse study focused on MDI-P as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of sepsis. The results reaffirmed the anti-infective strength and low toxicity profile in preclinical models of MDI-P.
 
  •  In 2004, we also commissioned a mouse study by Dr. Chi focused on MDI-P as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of the symptoms of asthma. In the study, 36 female mice were examined in a chronic asthma model, using various doses of MDI-P as a therapeutic agent as measured against a saline control. Samples of bronchial lavage lung fluid and tissue were taken from all mice, with assays performed in airway mucus build-up and eosinophil infiltration, a prime blood cell measure of asthmatic attacks. More than 70% of the MDI-P treated mice exhibited no increase in mucus secretions, comparable with saline control animals, with a marked reduction in eosinophil infiltration. Untreated asthmatic mice, in contrast, had more than a nine-fold increase in mucus build-up as compared with saline controls. Further, no toxicity was found in the MDI-P treated mice.
 
  •  On July 15, 2004, we announced our receipt from Clagett Consulting of a large mammal toxicity report for MDI-P. The study found no sign of any toxicity from MDI-P in the anatomy, behavior, clinical chemical, hematological, or histopathological measures of adverse events. The study was conducted in a rabbit species (New Zealand white rabbits) because of their acknowledged hyper-reactivity to toxicity in drugs. These results, when combined with our prior toxicological work, suggest that MDI-P should not cause toxic events in humans. Also included in the Clagett Consulting report was a further genomic analysis for toxicology of MDI-P. This genomics analysis indicated that MDI-P had no effect on any of the following: bone marrow function, hematocrit levels in peripheral blood, serum levels for alanine aminotransferase levels and aspartate aminotransferase levels, both of which provide sensitive measures of hepatic toxicity, serum protein and albumin levels, bound urinary nitrogen levels, serum calcium levels or blood glucose levels. In addition, this genomics analysis provided confirmation that various measures of impact on the hundreds of genes controlling toxicity as well as the immuno-regulatory system were neither up-or-down regulated by MDI-P.
 
  •  In 2004 Dr. Chi also studied MDI-P as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of the symptoms of Cystic Fibrosis. In this study of 48 mice, it was found that MDI-P is a useful agent to reduce primary measures of disease in Cystic Fibrosis, including bacterial infection, mucus secretion, cellular infiltration, lung edema (swelling with excess fluid), lung hemorrhage, and lung infiltration by neutrophils and eosinophils, the principal white blood cells responding to allergic and infectious pathogens. Excessive presence of neutrophils and eosinophils can lead to cell death in surrounding

  tissues, causing serious health problems from their over-expression. No overt signs of toxicity were found in the primary organs (lungs, liver, spleen, kidneys, brain) of mice treated with MDI-P.
 
  •  In 2004 we conducted a chronic toxicity study of MDI-P. The study involved the weekly injection of MDI-P into the body cavity of test mice for six-months. No statistically relevant changes in body weight, or morphometry or histopathology of vital organs were observed, when compared with mice receiving saline control injections or with untreated animals. The study resulted in no dose-dependency and no toxic effects.
Application of MDI-P to HIV:
      Overview. Our pre-clinical research has demonstrated that MDI-P is capable of rapidly killing HIV upon direct contact and preventing infection of cells in a cell culture. MDI-P has also shown it is capable of rapidly killing the HIV virus in an acutely infected cell line. Furthermore, the destruction of the HIV virus by MDI-P in a cell culture or a cell line does not require any additional combination of drugs, and appears to have a low toxicity profile in pre-clinical analysis. If these results can be replicated in human beings, under appropriate clinical protocols, this therapy may represent a significant clinical advance over existing therapies.
      Background of HIV/ AIDS. HIV is a retrovirus whose genetic information is encoded by ribonucleic acid (RNA) instead of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). It spreads through the body by invading host cells and using the human cells’ own protein synthesis process to replicate itself. As the virus replicates, it slowly destroys the immune system by infecting and killing T lymphocytes, so-called “T cells”, which are critical for the function of the human immune system.
      Existing Therapies for HIV. There are approximately 83 HIV therapies currently on the market and approved by the FDA with a market value of approximately $9.5 billion per year. The primary current therapies for HIV are anti-retroviral products falling into four categories: nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, protease inhibitors, and anti-fusion of HIV-1 with CD4 cells (Fuzeon®, or enfuvirtide). These therapies are typically taken in combination under a protocol called Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART). HAART is effective in controlling the levels of virus and in increasing the number of T cells. However, these combination therapies are also associated with significant toxicity and viral resistance. As a result, current therapy management is characterized by a set of complex issues: when to initiate therapy, what regimen to use, which drugs within each class to use, and when to change therapies. Due to limitations of chronic use of anti-retroviral drug therapies, guidelines issued by the National Institutes of Health suggest starting these therapies later in the disease. Therefore, a need exists for therapies that are useful early in the disease process, that are non-toxic, that are active against resistant strains and that do not give rise to rapid resistance. Even the new best-of-breed therapeutic, Fuzeon®, requires administration with other standard combination antiretroviral therapies, and still exhibits a number of toxicities, including: inflammation/cysts at site of injection (9%/26%), erythema (22%), proritus (4%), ecchymosis (8%), and on a less frequent basis, rashes, fever, nausea, vomiting, chills, hypotension, increased hepatic enzymes, neutropenia, thrombocytomeia, and renal failure.
      Benefits of MDI-P. MDI-P appears to have several important characteristics that could provide benefits to both patients and providers alike:
  •  MDI-P’s mechanism of action is not accomplished by enzyme or nucleic acid inhibition, but rather by direct intra-cellular effects. MDI-P is very rapid in effect and destroys viruses without destroying host cells.
 
  •  MDI-P’s broad-spectrum antiviral effects appear to make it effective against even highly resistant viral strains and not subject to rapid resistance.
 
  •  The destruction of bacterial organisms by exposure to MDI-P does not appear to produce any potential harmful effects.
 
  •  MDI-P appears to have a low toxicity profile and therefore may be better tolerated by patients.

      MDI’s HIV Protocol. The HIV virus is known to have a cell replication cycle of approximately 10 days to two weeks. For this reason, the Phase I protocol designed by Dr. Bruce Dezube planned at Harvard Medical School will use daily infusions over fourteen-day infusion cycles of MDI-P, followed by a rest period, followed by subsequent two-week infusions. The selection of the appropriate human dosing regimen will be based upon the dose curve data currently being established at the University of Washington Medical School. Since the best-of-breed therapeutics in HIV (e.g., Fuzeon®) establish an ability to bring the HIV RNA cell count below 400 copies per ml for as much as 65% of HIV patients, the Harvard Phase I studies will be examining toxicity, together with early signs of efficacy in bringing HIV RNA cell copies in blood tests down to or below this level with statistical significance.
      In order to expedite MDI’s IND for HIV, the Company may pursue an adjunct therapy program for its therapeutic, as in joint dosing with an approved HAART HIV therapeutic with MDI-P as an adjunct therapy to clinically manage the effects of fungal infections which frequently plague HIV patients. Specific pre-clinical studies in common fungi associated with HIV patients would be undertaken to support such a filing, together with the improved toxicity profile for MDI-P currently being established for the Cystic Fibrosis indication.
Application of MDI-P to Cystic Fibrosis:
      Overview. Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a recessive genetic disease that manifests itself in multiple systems of the body. Individuals who suffer from CF produce excessive amounts of thick, sticky mucus that obstructs the airways of the CF patient. If mucus is not reduced in the CF patient, then respiratory failure can occur. Due to the fact that mucus serves as a medium for the growth of bacteria, the CF patient faces a high risk of morbidity and mortality due to frequent pulmonary infection. Currently, there are no FDA approved CF therapeutics that provide a statistically significant mucus-clearing effect. The prospective ability of MDI-P to remove CF patient mucus accumulation may, in fact, provide a significant extension of life for CF patients.
      Background of Existing Therapies. With CF being a genetically-determined illness, there is presently no known “cure” for CF. Current treatment standards, which may entail 3-4 hours of treatment per day for the CF patient, include:
  •  Dietary control to lessen the build-up of fats, proteins (and to a lesser extent, carbohydrates) which can not be readily absorbed and metabolized. Typically, such dietary control is augmented with oral pancreatic enzymes to assist in fat metabolism.
 
  •  Treatment of bacterial infection with erythromycin, Tobramycin® (TOBI), and in severe infection cases, vancomycin to eradicate or control the infection. In some cases, daily use of oral antibiotics may be prescribed due to the high frequency of lung infection in CF patients and its risk of mortality.
 
  •  Frequent use of mucolytic agents such as N-acetylcysteine and bronchodilator therapy with Pulmozyme®. Clinical response may further indicate bronchial drainage through recombinant human Dnase or flutter devices to assist in mucus airway clearance, together with clapping of the chest to dislodge mucus. In extreme cases, broncho-alveolar lavage may be used, and if necessary, lung transplantation.
 
  •  Periodic corticosteroid tablets and inhaled anti-asthma medications (e.g., Advair®, Singulair®, etc.) to combat lung inflammation (frequently resulting from the presence of infection), together with high doses of ibuprofen for its anti-inflammatory effect.
 
  •  In addition, the CF patient may have insulin prescribed for CF-related diabetes, as well as medications for CF-associated liver disease, supplements of vitamins A and D, and medication to treat constipation. Oxygen therapy may also be prescribed.
      At present, current therapies tend to be more effective in controlling pulmonary infection than in clearance of mucus. However, even with the use of antibiotics, there may be as many as 45% of CF patients with drug-resistant infection that can prove life-threatening. Further, should the more common bacterial infection be complicated through a simultaneous viral infection, the odds of mortality can increase for the infected CF patient. Since CF’s build-up of mucus is genetically dependent, and the mucolytic agents and

8


Table of Contents

therapies limited in total mucus-clearing effect, the CF patient lives with a serious threat of respiratory failure from any of the various frequent pulmonary infections. This risk tends to be compounded with the increasing age of the CF patient. Even with the use of all such therapies administered through approved CF disease centers, the common prognosis for life expectancy of a CF patient is currently 31-32 years.
      Prospective Benefits of MDI-P. New anti-microbial therapies that would reduce continued mucus build-up would be beneficial to the CF patient to help prevent airway obstruction and frequent pulmonary infection. Should such new anti-microbial therapies also prove less susceptible to drug resistance, together with efficacy on viruses, their value in extending the quality of life and life span of CF patients would be substantial.
      Based upon MDI’s pre-clinical studies, MDI-P offers CF patients the following:
  •  to serve as a highly effective anti-microbial agent for CF patients with bacterial pulmonary infection, as well as viral pulmonary infection, with little or no drug resistance probability; and
 
  •  to serve as the best-of-breed mucolytic agent in clearing the continuous mucus build-up in CF, when applied by nebulization into the lungs, as an adjunct therapy to TOBI.
      The benefit of using MDI-P as an adjunct therapy to TOBI are as follows:
  •  to avoid the possibility of significant clinical risk of adverse events with CF patients that a lengthy drug-clearance period might introduce through a rebound of the degree of infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa or other bacterial pulmonary infection; and
 
  •  to lessen the likelihood of adverse events due to endotoxin reaction, due to the unparalleled efficacy of MDI-P in killing pathogens, including Pseudomanas.
      MDI-P is believed to have the potential, with CF patient compliance, of significantly improving both pulmonary function and longevity of CF patients, due to its unique and potent dual mechanism of action.
      MDI’s CF Protocols. MDI has established its planned Phase I CF trials at St. Luke’s Regional Medical Center, Boise, Idaho, under the supervision of Dr. Henry Thompson, Principal Investigator, who is Director of the Idaho CF Clinic. The Phase I trial is planned on adult CF patients in the latter term of life expectancy (age 21+). There are two arms to the study:
  •  Arm I-a: a clinical trial will be conducted on a healthy normal adult population consisting of 10-15 individuals to establish the safety of MDI-P as a prospective adjunct therapy,
 
  •  Arm I-b: a clinical trial will be conducted on a TOBI-dependent adult CF population consisting of 30 individuals, in which MDI-P is used as an adjunct therapy during TOBI’s 28-day rest period on a dose-rising regimen. Fifteen of the 30 patients will undergo each dose regimen, to determine if greater efficacy is achieved on the higher dose of MDI-P.
      Nebulization of MDI-P through Pari Research Institute’s new FDA-approved e-Flow device is planned. All patients will be hospitalized during the initial 24-hour start of nebulization, to allow monitoring for endotoxic reactions. Patients will then self-nebulize 3 times daily at home, and will come into the CF clinic for weekly physicals, blood tests, pulmonary function tests, and the like.
Other Indications for MDI-P:
      Our preclinical testing has also shown efficacy of MDI-P in treating sepsis and asthma. We have filed patent applications on those indications and may in the future pursue opportunities to commercialize MDI-P as a therapeutic for those indications.
SAVECREAM
      Overview. MDI acquired substantially all of the assets of a Hamburg, Germany-based biotech company, Savetherapeutics, AG, in March of 2005. The principal assets of Savetherapeutics are its intellectual property, pre-clinical data, and clinical trial data on SaveCream, a novel, topical steroidal form of aromatase inhibitor (AI) indicated for breast cancer. The principal value of SaveCream is its ability to deliver

substantially more therapeutic drug on the site of the breast tumor, as contrasted with systemic ingestion of competing AIs, thereby promoting faster and greater breast tumor reduction with fewer side effects.
      This promising cancer therapeutic product has been tested in the European Union under a unique German regulatory scheme that allows terminal patients to receive novel treatments. In the study, over 100 women diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer positive for the estrogen receptor received special permission to be treated with SaveCream. A significant number of those women experienced significant tumor reduction. This study indicates substantially improved efficacy in reduction of breast tumors, in shorter time frames than the three approved AIs currently on the market.
      Background on the Breast Cancer Market. Breast cancer is one of the leading cancer indications, with an annual incidence in the U.S. of 211,000 new cases per year, with annual mortality of 43,000 per year. For the one third of such breast cancers that are positive for human epidermal growth factor receptor-2, the standard treatment therapies are Herceptin®, followed by doxorubicin or epirubicin.
      For the remaining two thirds of breast cancers which are positive for the estrogen receptor (“ER”), the leading therapies over the past several years have become the aromatase inhibitors (“AIs”), recently achieving an estimated $2 billion per year in revenues in 2004. The current three approved AIs on the U.S. market are: Novartis’ Femara®, AstraZeneca’s Arimidex®, and Pfizer’s Aromatase®. All are oral in dosage. Because of significantly improved efficacy and reduced toxicity as compared with the former leading first-line ER-positive therapy, Astra Zeneca’s Tamoxifen, the AIs became the preferred first-line therapy for most breast cancers in the fall of 2004.
      Background on Aromatase Inhibitors. An aromatase inhibitor is an anti-estrogen therapy, blocking estrogen’s ability to activate cancer cells. Aromatase is the enzyme that converts other naturally occurring hormones (such as androgen) into estrogen. The way aromatase inhibitors work is to limit the production of estrogen by blocking its catalysis from other hormones. Approximately 70% of women test positive for estrogen receptors (ER) or progesterone receptors (PR) to which estrogen can dock, activating cancer cells. For this 70% ER/ PR positive patient grouping, the results of anti-estrogen therapy through AIs is strongest.
      Aromatase inhibitors represent a preferred approach to anti-estrogen therapy by lowering the amount of estrogen being produced by the body. This method contrasts with that of Tamoxifen and related therapies, which block estrogen’s ability to “turn on” cancer cells. Limiting the amount of estrogen produced means there is less estrogen available to reach cancer cells and make them grow.
      In post-menopausal women, estrogen is no longer produced by the ovaries, but is converted from androgen, another hormone. Aromatase inhibitors keep androgen from being converted to estrogen. That means less estrogen in the bloodstream, and less estrogen reaching estrogen receptors to trigger a breast tumor.
      In about 70-80% of breast cancer cases, the cancer cells have areas on their surface called receptors to which hormones such as estrogen and progesterone attach, providing fuel for the cells’ growth into a tumor. Tamoxifen® and AIs both interfere with cancer cells’ use of hormones to help them grow, but the drugs work in different ways. Tamoxifen® interferes directly with cancer cells’ ability to use estrogen for fuel. AIs block the action of a substance called aromatase, which helps the body to produce estrogen.
      Testing at the time breast cancer is diagnosed can determine whether the cancer cells are sensitive to estrogen or progesterone. Neither Tamoxifen® nor AIs are effective in treating breast cancer that is not hormone sensitive, that is, cancer that does not use hormones to help the tumor grow.
      Following reduction in tumor size by AI treatment, current treatment regimens usually proscribe surgery to remove the tumor(s), which if tumor size reduction has been substantial, may obviate the need for a mastectomy.
      Potential Benefits of SaveCream in Treating ER-Positive Breast Cancers. SaveT has formulated its AI therapeutic in a topical steroidal cream (SaveCream), applied twice daily, unlike the current AI oral formulations. By local administration on the breast, SaveCream effects a stronger down-regulation of estrogen in the local breast tissue — now believed to be key to reduction in ER-positive breast tumors — as contrasted with oral forms, which are constrained to systemic blood levels of active product under recommended dosing.

Table of Contents

      SaveCream evidenced an average 50%-80% reduction in breast tumor size within two weeks of treatment under its European Union trials, versus 24% over 3-months for the other AI competitor products.
      SaveCream appears to offer much less severe, and lower incidence of toxicities (likely due to the limited half-life of the active product). This favorable therapeutic index (efficacy/toxicity ratio) should make the therapeutic amenable to registration with a paper NDA, thereby making the product easier to license. Other AIs are still noted for musculoskeletal complaints and increased risk of osteoporosis and bone fracture, together with mastalagia. Initial clinical experience with SaveCream indicates that these common side-effects of other AIs are largely avoided with this novel AI therapeutic.
      SaveCream, because of its higher efficacy and unique mechanism of action, may also prove amenable to:
  •  pre-menopausal breast cancer patients, thereby expanding the targeted breast cancer indication substantially;
 
  •  other cancer indications, including ovarian, uterine, endometrial and skin cancers; and
 
  •  osteoporosis, effectively turning the therapeutic into a technology platform for drug development.
      MDI’s Commercialization Program for SaveCream. MDI believes that the supporting chemistry, manufacturing and control (CMC) data supporting SaveCream may need to be expanded and amplified, particularly in reference to the topical vehicle used as the carrier for its therapeutic agent. While undertaking a program to expand SaveCream’s CMC data, the Company will also undertake to expand the clinical trial program, including revised protocols. The CMC expansion is expected to require at least 3-6 months, while newly expanded clinical trials may require an additional year of testing.

12


Table of Contents

inventions. Each of those inventors has agreed and is contractually bound to assign such rights. We are currently in the process of securing the applicable assignments. However, we may need to initiate litigation against the inventors to secure such assignments.
COMPETITION
      The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are characterized by rapidly evolving technologies and intense competition. Our competitors include major pharmaceutical, and specialized biotechnology companies, many of which have financial, technical, and marketing resources significantly greater than ours. Fully integrated pharmaceutical companies, due to their expertise in research and development, manufacturing, testing, obtaining regulatory approvals, and marketing, as well as their substantially greater financial and other resources, may be our most formidable competitors. In addition, acquisitions by such pharmaceutical companies could enhance the financial and marketing resources of smaller competitors. Furthermore, colleges, universities, governmental agencies, and other public and private research organizations will continue to conduct research and possibly market competitive commercial products on their own or through joint ventures. These institutions are becoming more active in seeking patent protection and licensing arrangements to collect royalties for use of technology that they have developed. These institutions also will compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific personnel.
      If and when we obtain regulatory approval for any of the potential uses of our technology which require them, we must then compete for acceptance in the marketplace. Given that such regulatory approval, especially in the United States, may take a number of years, the timing of the introduction of our technology and other products to the market is critical. Other safe and effective drugs and treatments may be introduced into the market prior to the time that we are able to obtain approval for the commercialization of our technology. In addition, even after such regulatory approval is obtained, competition among products approved for sale may be affected by, among other things, product efficacy, safety, reliability, availability, price, and patent position. There can be no assurance that our technology will be competitive if and when introduced into the marketplace for any of its possible uses.
GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
      Overview. Our use of MDI-P and SaveCream as pharmaceuticals is subject to extensive regulation by United States and foreign governmental authorities. In particular, pharmaceutical treatments are subject to rigorous pre-clinical and clinical testing and other approval requirements by the FDA in the United States under the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and by comparable agencies in most foreign countries. Various federal, state and foreign statutes also govern or influence the manufacture, labeling, storage, record keeping, and marketing of such products. Pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities are also regulated by state, local, and other authorities. Obtaining approval from the FDA and other regulatory authorities for a new drug or treatment may take several years and involve substantial expenditures. Moreover, ongoing compliance with these requirements can require the expenditure of substantial resources. Difficulties or unanticipated costs may be encountered by us in our efforts to secure necessary governmental approvals, which could delay or preclude us from marketing MDI-P or SaveCream.
      FDA. The FDA imposes substantial requirements upon and conditions precedent to the introduction of therapeutic drug products, such as MDI-P or SaveCream, through lengthy and detailed laboratory and clinical testing procedures, sampling activities and other costly and time consuming procedures to demonstrate that such products are both safe and effective in treating the indications for which approval is sought. After testing in animals, an Investigational New Drug, or IND, application must be filed with the FDA to obtain authorization for human testing. When the clinical testing has been completed and analyzed, final manufacturing processes and procedures are in place, and certain other required information is available to the manufacturer, a manufacturer may submit a new drug application, or NDA, to the FDA. No action can be taken to market any therapeutic drug product in the United States until an NDA has been approved by the FDA.

13


Table of Contents

      The IND process in the United States is governed by regulations established by the FDA which strictly control the use and distribution of investigational drugs in the United States. The guidelines require that an application contain sufficient information to justify administering the drug to humans, that the application include relevant information on the chemistry, pharmacology and toxicology of the drug derived from chemical, laboratory and animal or in vitro testing, and that a protocol be provided for the initial study of the new drug to be conducted on humans.
      In order to conduct a clinical trial of a new drug in humans, a sponsor must prepare and submit to the FDA a comprehensive IND. The focal point of the IND is a description of the overall plan for investigating the drug product and a comprehensive protocol for each planned study. The plan is carried out in three phases: Phase I clinical trials, which involve the administration of the drug to a small number of healthy subjects to determine safety, tolerance, absorption and metabolism characteristics; Phase II clinical trials, which involve the administration of the drug to a limited number of patients for a specific disease to determine dose response, efficacy and safety; and Phase III clinical trials, which involve the study of the drug to gain confirmatory evidence of efficacy and safety from a wide base of investigators and patients.
      Phase I testing typically takes at least one year, Phase II trials typically take from 11/2 to 21/2 years, and Phase III trials generally take from 2 to 5 years to complete. Should the FDA grant “fast-track” status to MDI-P based upon its safety profile and early signs of efficacy in Phase I clinical trials, the overall timeline for completion of Phase II-III clinical trials can be compacted to as little as 2-3 years. We can give no assurance that Phase I, Phase II or Phase III testing for MDI-P or SaveCream will be completed successfully within any specified time period, if at all. While we are hopeful that “fast-track” status might be provided MDI-P, there is no assurance that such status will, in fact, be provided. Furthermore, the FDA may suspend clinical trials at any time if the patients are believed to be exposed to a significant health risk.
      An investigator’s brochure must be included in the IND and the IND must commit the sponsor to obtain initial and continual review and approval of the clinical investigation. A section describing the composition, manufacture and control of the drug substance and the drug product is included in the IND. Sufficient information is required to be submitted to assure the proper identification, quality, purity and strength of the investigational drug. A description of the drug substance, including its physical, chemical, and biological characteristics, must also be included in the IND. The general method of preparation of the drug substance must be included. A list of all components including inactive ingredients must also be submitted. There must be adequate information about pharmacological and toxicological studies of the drug involving laboratory animals and in vitro tests on the basis of which the sponsor has concluded that it is reasonably safe to conduct the proposed clinical investigation. Where there has been widespread use of the drug outside of the United States or otherwise, it is possible in some limited circumstances to use well documented clinical experience as a substitute for other pre-clinical work.
      The FDA typically takes several months to consider and act on an IND application. We can give no assurance that our IND application will be approved or, if approved following comments or subject to modifications, the length of FDA approval time.
      After the FDA approves the IND, the investigation is permitted to proceed, during which the sponsor must keep the FDA informed of new studies, including animal studies, make progress reports on the study or studies covered by the IND, and also be responsible for alerting FDA and clinical investigators immediately of unforeseen serious side effects or injuries.
      When all clinical testing has been completed and analyzed, final manufacturing processes and procedures are in place, and certain other required information is available to the manufacturer, a manufacturer may submit an NDA to the FDA. An NDA must be approved by the FDA covering the drug before its manufacturer can commence commercial distribution of the drug. The NDA contains a section describing the clinical investigations of the drug which section includes, among other things, the following: a description and analysis of each clinical pharmacology study of the drug; a description and analysis of each controlled clinical study pertinent to a proposed use of the drug; a description of each uncontrolled clinical study including a summary of the results and a brief statement explaining why the study is classified as uncontrolled; and a description and analysis of any other data or information relevant to an evaluation of the safety and

14


Table of Contents

effectiveness of the drug product obtained or otherwise received by the applicant from any source foreign or domestic. The NDA also includes an integrated summary of all available information about the safety of the drug product including pertinent animal and other laboratory data, demonstrated or potential adverse effects of the drug, including clinically significant potential adverse effects of administration of the drug contemporaneously with the administration of other drugs and other related drugs. A section is included describing the statistical controlled clinical study and the documentation and supporting statistical analysis used in evaluating the controlled clinical studies.
      Another section of the NDA describes the data concerning the action of a drug in the human body over a period of time and data concerning the extent of drug absorption in the human body or information supporting a waiver of the submission of such data. Also included in the NDA is a section describing the composition, manufacture and specification of the drug substance including the following: a full description of the drug substance, its physical and chemical characteristics; its stability; the process controls used during manufacture and packaging; and such specifications and analytical methods as are necessary to assure the identity, strength, quality and purity of the drug substance as well as the availability of the drug products made from the substance. NDAs contain lists of all components used in the manufacture of the drug product and a statement of the specifications and analytical methods for each component. Also included are studies of the toxicological actions of the drug as they relate to the drug’s intended uses.
      The data in the NDA must establish that the drug has been shown to be safe for use under its proposed labeling conditions and that there is substantial evidence that the drug is effective for its proposed use(s). Substantial evidence is defined by statute and FDA regulation to mean evidence consisting of adequate and well-controlled investigations, including clinical investigations by experts qualified by scientific training and experience, to evaluate the effectiveness of the drug involved. We can give no assurance that even if we complete clinical testing that our NDA will be approved.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
      Our research and development efforts to date have consisted primarily of pre-clinical development of and preparing applications for regulatory approvals for MDI-P for our initial target indications, HIV and Cystic Fibrosis.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF SECURITIES
      We sold the following unregistered securities in the past three years. None of the sales involved an underwriter. We believe these sales were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 because the sales did not involve a public offering.
  •  On or about March 14, 2005, we sold 30,000 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 22,877,478 shares of common stock for a total offering price of $3 million. Each share of Preferred Stock entitles the holder to convert the share of Preferred Stock into the number of shares of common stock resulting from multiplying $100 by the conversion price. The conversion price is 75% of the average of the lowest three intra-day trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, but the conversion price may not exceed $0.1967. The number of shares of common stock subject to the warrants and the exercise price are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase up to 22,877,478 shares of common stock of the Company on or before the third anniversary of the issuance date of the warrants at $0.1967 per share. The number of shares of common stock subject to the warrants and the exercise price are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. In connection with this financing, we issued to a placement agent warrants that entitle the holder to purchase up to 1,220,132 shares of common stock of the Company on or before the third anniversary of the issuance date of the warrants at $0.1967 per share.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
      The purpose of this section is to discuss and analyze our consolidated financial condition, liquidity and capital resources, and results of operations. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto at pages 27 through 43.
      This section contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding our plans, objectives, goals, strategies and financial performance. Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of factors set forth under “Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information and Factors Affecting Future Results” below and elsewhere in this report.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
      Revenues and Gross Profit. We booked no revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004 or for the prior year ended December 31, 2003. As we continue to pursue pre-clinical and clinical testing of our pharmaceuticals, we do not anticipate booking significant revenues in the near future.
      Operating Expenses and Operating Loss. We booked $550,093 in research and development expenses during the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared with $100,423 in such expenses for the same period in 2003. Our increased research and development activity reflects our success is raising capital to fund pre-clinical studies of MDI-P. We have continued to be successful in raising capital in 2005 and will likely incur substantially higher research and development expenses during 2005. Our general and administrative expenses were $3,057,429 in 2004, as compared with $1,206,484 during the year ended December 31, 2003. Of that amount, we recorded non-cash charges of $1,741,501 for stock and stock options issued for services, expenses and interest. As a result of the foregoing, we sustained an operating loss of $3,607,522 for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared with a loss of $1,306,907 for the same period of 2003.
      Other Income/ Expense and Net Loss. We recorded other income during 2004 in the amount of $1,408. During 2003, we recorded $611,558 in other income, $610,828 of which was on account of writing off certain liabilities from our balance sheet. We incurred interest expenses of $131,526 in 2004, as compared with $256,694 in such expenses in 2003. Our interest expenses have decreased as we have paid down or converted to equity relatively short-term, high-interest debt incurred in past periods in order to finance operations, research and development. We also recorded $6,165 in interest income in 2004. In sum, our net loss available to common stockholders for 2004 was $4,423,674, or a loss of approximately $0.05 per fully diluted share. In 2003, we sustained a net loss of $952,043, or a loss of approximately $0.02 per fully diluted share.
      Income Taxes. We have available net operating losses of approximately $12,830,000 which can be utilized to offset future earnings. See Note C to the Financial Statements for a further explanation of this analysis.

      Future Commitment and Expectations. We expect to operate at a loss for several more years while we continue to study, gain regulatory approval of and commercialize our technologies. We will spend more in 2005 in research and development expenses as we continue to implement our commercialization strategy. Similarly, we expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in 2005 as we assimilate the Savetherapeutics assets into our organization and commercialize SaveCream. As a result, we may sustain a greater net loss in 2005, than we have in recent years.
      Recently Issued Accounting Statements. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” which is an amendment to SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” This new standard eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using Accounting Principles Board (APB) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and requires such transactions to be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and the resulting cost recognized in the Company’s financial statements. This new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company intends to implement SFAS No. 123 in the third quarter of 2005 and it will not currently have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.
      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 153, “Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets — an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29.” This Statement amends APB Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The Statement will be effective in January 2006. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
      As of December 31, 2004, we had $1,455,397 in cash and had a working capital deficit of $1,887,136. Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through private sales of equity and the issuance of convertible and non-convertible notes. We will require significant additional funding to continue to develop, research and seek regulatory approval of our technologies. We do not currently generate any cash from operations and have no credit facilities in place or available. Currently, we are funding operations through issuances of private equity.
      We are seeking to raise substantial additional funds in private stock offerings in order to meet our mid-term funding requirements. While we are optimistic that we can raise such funds, we have not always been successful in doing so in recent years. Given that we are still in an early development stage and do not have revenues from operations, raising equity financing is difficult. In addition, any additional equity financing will have a substantial dilutive effect to our current shareholders.
      Pursuant to our commercialization strategy, we estimate we will need to expend an additional $550,000 in research and development to conduct additional pre-clinical testing and gain acceptance of our IND as a therapy for Cystic Fibrosis. (See “Description of Business — Commercialization Strategy” above.) In addition, we estimate we will need to expend an additional $300,000 to $350,000 in debt service and general and administrative costs between now and when we hope to receive acceptance of that IND in Q4 2005. Assuming that IND is accepted, we estimate we will need to expend an additional $830,000 in conducting Phase I clinical trials (including general and administrative expenses through our projected completion date of such trials in Q1 of 2006). Additionally, upon acceptance of the Cystic Fibrosis IND, we estimate we will need to expend an additional $300,000 in completing and filing our IND for HIV. Therefore, in total, in order to advance MDI-P through our immediate developmental goals, we estimate to incur expenses of $1,980,000 to $2,030,000. As of the date of this report, we nearly have adequate cash for these purposes. However, we have not yet completed our commercialization strategy for SaveCream or our projections of the associated costs. Clearly, therefore, the near-term costs of advancing MDI-P and SaveCream to the next developmental milestones and funding the remaining 1,850,000 of our SaveCream purchase price obligation, when taken together, exceed our current cash.

21


Table of Contents

      Furthermore, we estimate the cost to complete Phase II clinical trials in any one indication to be several million dollars and the cost to complete Phase III testing and obtain approval of an NDA to be in the tens of millions of dollars. While our ability to obtain financing may improve as we continue to advance our technologies, we cannot give assurances that we will have the access to the significant capital required to take a drug through regulatory approvals and to market. We may seek a partner in the global pharmaceutical industry to help us co-develop, license, or even purchase some or all of our technologies.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
      We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(c) of Regulation S-B.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
      The Company bears foreign currency exchange risk because our remaining purchase price obligation for the Savetherapeutic assets is stated in Euros.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
AND FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS
      Certain information set forth in this report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, and financing needs and other information that is not historical information. When used in this report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Additional forward-looking statements may be made by us from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral and whether made by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
      Our forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by us to have a reasonable basis, including without limitation, our examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties, but there can be no assurance that our expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved or accomplished. Our forward-looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this report. In addition to the other factors and matters discussed elsewhere in this report, the following factors are among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf should be considered in light of these factors.
      We Are A Development-Stage Company That Has Not Yet Commercialized A Product. We have not commercialized MDI-P, SaveCream or any other product and our failure to commercialize our drugs would likely cause us to cease operations. While we believe MDI-P and SaveCream may have very broad commercial applications, we do not have any other products under development, nor do we have scientific personnel on staff to develop any further technologies. While our pre-clinical studies of MDI-P and SaveCream to date have been quite favorable, there is no certainty that our drugs will be successful. The results of our pre-clinical studies may not be indicative of future clinical trials. Moreover, unacceptable side effects could occur at any time in the course of human trials or, if our drugs are approved for sales, during commercial use. Even if our drugs do prove to be safe and effective and receive regulatory approvals, we may be unable to successfully.
      We Have Incurred Substantial Losses Since Our Inception And May Continue To Operate At A Loss. We have experienced net losses in each twelve-month period since inception, with a retained deficit of

22


Table of Contents

approximately $20,753,510 as of December 31, 2004. Our losses from operations in 2004 were $3,731,475 and our cumulative losses from operations since inception through December 31, 2004 were $18,661,734. We will likely continue to experience a net operating loss until, and if, we can fully commercialize our technologies, which may not be for several years. We are presently investing all of our resources in the testing, development and commercialization of MDI-P and Save-Cream. If MDI-P and SaveCream do not generate revenues or if the revenues do not exceed the costs of research, development, testing, regulatory approval and other costs, then we may never realize a profit from operations.
      We May Not Be Able To Raise Sufficient Capital To Meet Present And Future Obligations. As of December 31, 2004, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $1,887,136 and we had cash of only $1,455,397. We need substantial additional capital to fund regulatory approvals and to fully commercialize our technologies. We do not anticipate that revenues will satisfy these capital requirements. Furthermore, we may not to be able to obtain the amount of additional capital needed or may be forced to pay an extremely high price for capital.
      The timing and amount of our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, without limitation the following:
  •  our ability to raise additional funding and the amounts raised, if any;
 
  •  the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approvals;
 
  •  the results of pre-clinical studies and clinical trials;
 
  •  the cost of manufacturing scale-up;
 
  •  competing technological and market developments;
 
  •  the costs of filing, prosecuting and enforcing patent claims; and
 
  •  the effectiveness of our commercialization activities.
      Factors affecting the availability and price of capital may include, without limitation, the following:
  •  market factors affecting the availability and cost of capital generally;
 
  •  our performance;
 
  •  the size of our capital needs;
 
  •  the market’s perception and acceptance of our technologies;
 
  •  the price, volatility and trading volume of our common shares; and
 
  •  the effect of the exercise of outstanding options and warrants exercisable into approximately 58 million shares of common stock.
      If we are unable to obtain sufficient capital or are forced to pay a high price for capital, we may be unable to complete testing, regulatory approval and commercialization of our technologies and may never achieve consistent revenues or profitability. In addition, because of their size, resources and other factors, our competitors may have better access to capital than we do and, as a result, may be able to exploit opportunities more rapidly, easily or thoroughly than we can.
      Our Independent Auditors Have Expressed Substantial Doubt As To Our Ability To Continue As A Going Concern. Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because of our recurring losses from our development-stage activities in current and prior years. We have not generated any significant revenues to date. We expect to continue to incur substantial net operating losses over the next several years. We may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to become profitable and do not expect to generate any revenues for several years. We struggle with operating and liquidity issues due to our negative cash flows from operations and we have had difficulty in the past with raising capital. As a result of these and other factors, our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to

23


Table of Contents

continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
      Our Operations Are And Will Be Subject To Extensive Regulation. Our use of MDI-P and SaveCream in the treatment of humans is subject to extensive regulation by United States and foreign governmental authorities. In particular, pharmaceutical treatments are subject to rigorous pre-clinical and clinical testing and other approval requirements by the FDA in the United States under the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and by comparable agencies in most foreign countries. Various federal, state and foreign statutes also govern or influence the manufacture, labeling, storage, record keeping, and marketing of such products. Pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities are also regulated by state, local, and other authorities. Obtaining approval from the FDA and other regulatory authorities for a new drug or treatment may take several years and involve substantial expenditures. Moreover, ongoing compliance with these requirements can require the expenditure of substantial resources. Difficulties or unanticipated costs may be encountered by us in our efforts to secure necessary governmental approvals, which could delay or preclude us from marketing our products.
      Our Products Will Be Exposed To Pricing And Reimbursement Risks. Our ability to earn revenue will depend in part on the extent to which reimbursement for the costs of the products and related treatments will be available from government health administration authorities, private health coverage and managed care organizations. Third-party payers are increasingly challenging the prices of drugs and medical services. If purchasers or users of MDI-P or SaveCream are not able to obtain adequate reimbursement, they may forego or reduce their use.
      We Face Intense Competition And Competing Products. Competition in the markets for MDI-P and SaveCream is intense and will likely further intensify. The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are characterized by rapidly evolving technologies and intense competition. Our competitors include major pharmaceutical, and specialized biotechnology companies, many of which have financial, technical, and marketing resources significantly greater than ours. Fully integrated pharmaceutical companies, due to their expertise in research and development, manufacturing, testing, obtaining regulatory approvals, and marketing, as well as their substantially greater financial and other resources, may be our most formidable competitors. In addition, acquisitions by such pharmaceutical companies could enhance the financial and marketing resources of smaller competitors. Furthermore, colleges, universities, governmental agencies, and other public and private research organizations will continue to conduct research and possibly market competitive commercial products on their own or through joint ventures. These institutions are becoming more active in seeking patent protection and licensing arrangements to collect royalties for use of technology that they have developed. These institutions also will compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific personnel.
      If and when we obtain regulatory approval for any of the potential uses of our technology which require them, we must then compete for acceptance in the marketplace. Given that such regulatory approval, especially in the United States, may take a number of years, the timing of the introduction of our technology and other products to the market is critical. Other safe and effective drugs and treatments may be introduced into the market prior to the time that we are able to obtain approval for the commercialization of our technology. In addition, even after such regulatory approval is obtained, competition among products approved for sale may be affected by, among other things, product efficacy, safety, reliability, availability, price, and patent position.
      Our Intellectual Property May Not Be Adequately Protected. We rely heavily on our patent protection to prevent others from using the human therapeutic applications of our technology. It is our policy to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technologies by, among other means, filing patent applications to protect technology that we consider important to the development of our business. We also rely on trade secrets and improvements, unpatented know-how, and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position. Despite our policy to seek patent protection wherever appropriate, we cannot be sure that our patent applications will result in further patents being issued or that, if issued, the patents will afford protection against competitors with similar technology. While we have obtained several United States patents, persons in jurisdictions outside of the United States in which no application has been filed, or which do not honor United States patents, may develop and market infringing technologies. Also, the cost of enforcing

24


Table of Contents

patents outside of North America, as well as other obstacles, may limit our ability to enforce any patents outside of the United States. Finally, our products and processes may infringe on patents of others. If relevant claims of third-party patents are upheld as valid and enforceable, we could be prevented from practicing the subject matter claimed in the claims, or be required to obtain licenses or redesign our products or processes to avoid infringement.
      We May Need to Litigate to Secure Our Rights to SaveCream And Related Assets. At the time we purchased SaveCream and the other intellectual property assets from Savethearpeutics A.G. (SaveT), SaveT had not yet obtained and filed with the appropriate patent offices assignments of the various inventors’ rights to the underlying inventions. Each of those inventors has agreed and is contractually bound to assign such rights. We are currently in the process of securing the applicable assignments. However, we may need to initiate litigation against the inventors to secure such assignments.
      We Face Significant Product Liability. We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability and other claims in the event our products results in or is alleged to result in harmful effects. We may not be able to avoid significant liability exposure. We may not have or be able to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at a reasonable cost. An inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage at a reasonable cost could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of our technology. Even if we avoid liability exposure, we could incur significant costs that hurt our financial performance. We currently do not have and have not applied for product liability insurance. We intend to purchase product liability insurance prior to commencing clinical trials.
      The Market For Our Stock Is Thin And Subject To Manipulation. Our common stock is traded on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “MLSC.” The following table sets forth the range of bid quotations for our common stock for the quarters indicated according to data provided by The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. Such quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-ups, markdowns or commissions, and may not represent actual transactions.
                 
Period   High Bid   Low Bid
         
Quarter ended December 31, 2004
  $ 0.260     $ 0.180  
Quarter ended September 30, 2004

    0.300       0.115  
Quarter ended March 31, 2004
    0.170       0.100  
      The Market Price For Our Common Stock Will Likely Be Volatile And May Change Dramatically At Any Time. The market price of our common stock, like that of the securities of other early-stage companies, may be highly volatile. Our stock price may change dramatically as the result of announcements of our quarterly results, the execution or termination of significant customer contracts, significant litigation or other factors or events that would be expected to affect our business or financial condition, results of operations and other factors specific to our business and future prospects. In addition, the market price for our common stock may be affected by various factors not directly related to our business, including the following:
  •  intentional manipulation of our stock price by existing or future stockholders;
 
  •  short selling of our common stock or related derivative securities;
 
  •  the interest, or lack of interest, of the market in our business sector, without regard to our financial condition or results of operations;
 
  •  the adoption of governmental regulations and similar developments in the United States or abroad that may affect our ability to develop our products or affect our cost structure;
 
  •  economic and other external market factors, such as poor economic indicators or investor distrust.
      Obtaining Additional Capital Though The Sale Of Common Stock Will Result In Dilution Of Stockholder Interests. We plan to raise additional funds in the future by issuing additional shares of common stock, or securities such as convertible notes, options, warrants or preferred stock that are convertible into

25


Table of Contents

common stock. Any such sale of common stock or other securities will lead to further dilution of the equity ownership of existing holders of our common stock.
      We Are Unlikely To Pay Dividends On Our Common Stock In the Foreseeable Future. We have never declared or paid dividends on our stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, and it is unlikely that investors will derive any current income from ownership of our stock. This means that your potential for economic gain from ownership of our stock depends on appreciation of our stock price and will only be realized by a sale of the stock at a price higher than your purchase price.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Medical Discoveries, Inc.
      We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Medical Discoveries, Inc. and subsidiaries (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended, and for the period from November 20, 1991 (date of inception of the development stage) through December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company from November 20, 1991 through December 31, 2003, which statements reflect total revenues and deficit accumulated during the development stage of $157,044 and $14,930,259, respectively. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report, dated February 18, 2004 (except Note K as to which the date is November 15, 2004), included an explanatory paragraph stating there was substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the consolidated financial statements for the period from November 20, 1991 through December 31, 2003, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
      We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit and the report of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
      In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Medical Discoveries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from November 20, 1991 through December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
      The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is a development stage enterprise engaged in developing bio-pharmaceutical research. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, the stockholders’ deficiency and the operating losses since inception raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Medical Discoveries, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Boise, Idaho
      We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows of Medical Discoveries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (a development stage company) for the year ended December 31, 2003, and for the period from inception (November 20, 1991) to December 31, 2003. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to report on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. The Company’s financial statements for the period from inception (November 20, 1991) through December 31, 1999 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated March 20, 2000, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. The financial statements for the period from inception (November 20, 1991) through December 31, 1999 reflect total revenues and net loss of $150,015 and $9,951,404, respectively, of the related totals. The other auditors’ report has been furnished to us, and our report, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for such prior period, is based solely on the report of such other auditors.
      We conducted our audit in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
      In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of Medical Discoveries, Inc. and Subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2003, and for the period from inception (November 20, 1991) to December 31, 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
      The accompanying 2003 consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is a development stage enterprise engaged in developing biopharmaceutical research. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, the stockholders’ deficiency and the operating losses since inception raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

MEDICAL DISCOVERIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
      Medical Discoveries, Inc. (“MDI” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on November 20, 1991. Effective as of August 6, 1992, the Company merged with and into WPI Pharmaceutical, Inc., a Utah corporation (“WPI”), pursuant to which WPI was the surviving corporation. Pursuant to the MDI-WPI merger, the name of the surviving corporation was changed to Medical Discoveries, Inc.
      On July 6, 1998, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Regenere, Inc., in the State of Nevada. On October 2, 1998, the Company incorporated another wholly owned subsidiary, MDI Healthcare Systems, Inc., in the State of Nevada. As of December 31, 2003, the Company dissolved those subsidiaries.
      On March 22, 2005, the Company formed MDI Oncology, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary to acquire and operate the assets and business associated with the Savetherapeutics transaction, discussed further in Note J.
Principles of Consolidation
      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Medical Discoveries, Inc. and subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Development Stage Company
      The Company has not generated any significant revenue and is, therefore, considered a development stage company as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7. The Company has, at the present time, not paid any dividends. Any dividends that may be paid in the future will depend upon the financial requirements of the Company. The primary purpose of the business is the research and development of pharmaceuticals.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
      For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments maturing in three months or less to be cash equivalents. At year end, the Company has cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits. The Company had an insured bank balance of $114,564 at December 31, 2004.
Income Taxes
      The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the carryforward of operating losses and tax credits and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that such tax benefits will not be realized. Research tax credits are recognized as utilized.
Research and Development
      Research and development has been the principal function of the Company. Expenses in the accompanying financial statements include certain costs which are directly associated with the Company’s research and development of the Company’s anti-infective pharmaceutical, MDI-P. These costs, which consist primarily of pre-clinical testing activities, amounted to $550,093 and $100,423 and $3,548,738 for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 and for the period November 20, 1991 (date of inception of the development stage) through December 31, 2004, respectively.

MEDICAL DISCOVERIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
      The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments, at December 31, 2004, do not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values of its financial instruments recorded in the accompanying balance sheet. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value, and accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
Estimates
      Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported revenues and expenses. Significant estimates used in preparing these financial statements include those assumed in determining the valuation of common stock and stock options. It is at least reasonably possible that the significant estimates used will change within the next year.
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share
      Basic loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares and all dilutive potentially issuable common shares outstanding during the year. Common stock equivalents, stock options and stock warrants have not been included as they are anti-dilutive.
Concentration of Credit
      The Company has no significant revenues and, therefore, no significant trade receivables or extensions of credit.
Stock Based Compensation
      The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation issued to non-employees using the fair value method in accordance with SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” Under SFAS No. 123, stock-based compensation is determined as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for these issuances is the earlier of the date at which a commitment for performance is reached or the date at which the recipient’s performance is complete.
      The Company accounts for employee stock option and award plans under the recognition method and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and the related Interpretations. Under APB Opinion No. 25, compensation related to stock options, if any, is recorded if an option’s exercise price on the measurement date is below the fair value of the Company’s common stock. The compensation is amortized to expense over the vesting period.
      These accounting policies resulted in the Company recognizing $1,675,000 and $295,000 in stock-based compensation cost during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. The effect on net loss and

net loss per common share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to employee stock-based compensation is as follows:
                 
    Fiscal Year Ended December 31,
     
    2004   2003
         
Net loss applicable to common stockholders, as reported

Basic and diluted loss per share, pro forma
  $ (0.05 )   $ (0.02 )
Recently Issued Accounting Statements
      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” which is an amendment to SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” This new standard eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using Accounting Principles Board (APB) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and requires such transactions to be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and the resulting cost recognized in the Company’s financial statements. This new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company intends to implement SFAS No. 123 in the third quarter of 2005 and it will not currently have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.
      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 153, “Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets — an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29.” This Statement amends APB Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The Statement will be effective in January 2006. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Reclassifications
      Certain 2003 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net loss.
NOTE B — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN
      As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $4,423,674 during the year ended December 31, 2004 and has incurred losses applicable to common shareholders since inception of the development stage of $19,353,933. The Company has not had significant revenues and is still in the process of testing and commercializing its technologies. The Company is hopeful, but there is no assurance, that the current product development and research will be economically viable. Those factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
      Management plans to meet its cash needs through the issuance of equity or debt securities and the potential licensure of its technologies. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
on that plan’s success. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE C — INCOME TAXES
      Income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial and tax basis income. The following is a reconciliation of the amount of benefit that would result from applying the federal statutory rate to pretax loss with the benefit from income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2004:
                 
    Years Ended December 31,
     
    2004   2003
         
Federal income tax benefit at statutory rate (34%)
  $ 1,268,000     $ 327,000  
State income tax, net of federal benefit
    224,000       38,000  
Revaluation and expiration of options
    (631,000 )     (108,000 )
Change in valuation allowance
    (861,000 )     (257,000 )
             
    $     $  
             
      The components of net deferred taxes are as follows at December 31 using a combined deferred tax rate of 40%:
         
    2004
     
Net operating loss carryforward
  $ 5,132,000  
Research and development credits
    80,000  
Stock options
    646,000  
Accrued compensation
    396,000  
Valuation allowance
    (6,254,000 )
Net deferred tax asset
  $  
       
      Inasmuch as it is not possible to determine when or if the net operating losses will be utilized, a valuation allowance has been established to offset the benefit of the utilization of the net operating losses.
      The Company has available net operating losses of approximately $12,830,000 which can be utilized to offset future earnings of the Company. The Company also has available approximately $80,000 in research and development credits which expire in 2008. The utilization of the net operating losses and research and development credits are dependent upon the tax laws in effect at the time such losses can be utilized. The losses begin to expire between the years 2007 and 2023. Should the Company experience a change of ownership the utilization of net operating losses could be reduced.
NOTE D — NOTES PAYABLE
      The Company has the following notes payable at December 31, 2004:
         
Notes payable to shareholders, which are currently due and in default. Interest is at 12%. The notes are unsecured

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
NOTE E — CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
      The Company has the following convertible notes payable at December 31, 2004:
         
Convertible notes payable to a trust, which are currently due and in default. Interest is at 12%. Each $1,000 note is convertible into 667 shares of the Company’s common stock
  $ 193,200  
NOTE F — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
      On October 18, 2004, the Company issued 12,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 4,575,495 shares of common stock for a total offering price of $1.2 million. The Company incurred $130,000 of offering costs and issued to the placement agent 350,000 shares of common stock (valued at $0.20 per share) and warrants to purchase 488,052 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.1967 per share which are exercisable for a period of three years. The Company valued these warrants at $0.19 per share using a Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free rate 2.82%, volatility of 171% and an expected life of three years.
      Each share of Preferred Stock entitles the holder to convert the share of Preferred Stock into the number of shares of common stock resulting from multiplying $100 by the conversion price. The conversion price is 85% of the average of the lowest three intra-day trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, but the conversion price may not exceed $0.1967 or be lower than $0.05 per share. The warrants are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase up to 4,575,495 shares of common stock of the Company on or before the third anniversary of the issuance date of the warrants at $0.1967 per share.
      The Company has allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants, based on their relative fair values on the date of issuance which are as follows: $1,200,000 to the Series A Convertible Preferred and $880,325 to the warrants. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes Pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 171%, risk-free interest rate of 2.82% and a term of three years. The allocation of the net proceeds resulted in $523,334 being allocated to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and $383,920 being allocated to the warrants. The Company recognized a beneficial conversion dividend of $692,199 on the date of issuance equal to the value allocated to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (before offering costs). The actual value of the beneficial conversion option was $719,177, but the dividend was limited to the amount of gross proceeds allocated to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
      The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has no dividend or voting rights. In the event of liquidation, the holders are entitled to a liquidating distribution of $100 per share. The number of shares of common stock subject to the warrants and the exercise price are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. and Mercator Advisory Group, LLC, requiring the Company to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the warrants.
Commitment Regarding Peregrine Stock
      Peregrine Properties, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Peregrine”), has entered into an agreement to provide $500,000 to the Company to fund testing and research steps necessary to continue

development of MDI-P. The studies are funded through an escrow agent. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had deposited in escrow a single certificate for 5.5 million shares of common stock for these purposes. Through December 31, 2003, Peregrine had funded $275,800 to the escrow, of which $272,700 had been disbursed and recorded as research and development expense on the financial statements of the Company. The remaining $227,300 to be expended under the agreement was recorded in equity under the caption escrow receivable. As expenditures are made from the escrow for research and development, the expenses are recorded by the Company with a corresponding reduction in the escrow receivable. Under the original agreement, upon completion of the studies, the escrow agent was to disburse the 5.5 million shares to Peregrine and to disburse the research results to the Company. On March 22, 2002, the parties entered into an agreement to partially close the escrow agreement to the extent of Peregrine’s funding to date. On that date, 3,143,800 shares were distributed to Peregrine and all research conducted to date was disbursed to the Company. As of February 20, 2004, the Company held Peregrine in breach with respect to its remaining funding obligation and terminated the Peregrine research agreement. The Company and Peregrine resolved the matter during 2004 by the Company agreeing to grant Peregrine a warrant to purchase 2,356,200 shares of restricted common stock at an exercise price of $0.09 per share, exercisable at any time within 3 years. The exchange of the escrow receivable for the warrants was considered a financing transaction, with no additional expense being recorded. The Company reversed the $227,300 escrow receivable and cancelled the remaining 2,356,200 shares held in escrow.
Common Stock and Warrants Issued for Cash
      During 2004, as part of a private placement offering, the Company issued 5,551,011 shares of common stock for $0.18 per share or $999,180. In conjunction with the private placement, the Company issued to these investors warrants to purchase 5,551,011 shares of common stock at $0.18 per share. These warrants expire three years from the date of issuance.
Conversion of Notes Payable and Convertible Notes Payable to Common Stock
      During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company converted $487,503 of principal and $162,964 of interest related to notes payable and convertible notes payable into 9,875,951 shares of common stock. The conversion prices ranged from $0.06 to $0.21 per share.
NOTE G — STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
Stock Options
      The Company has two incentive stock option plans wherein 24,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance thereunder. The Company granted 700,000 fully vested stock options during the year ended December 31, 2004 to consultants with an exercise price of $0.05. These options were valued at $98,000 using the Black Scholes pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest of 3.8%, expected dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 220% and an expected life of 7 years. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company granted 14,800,000 fully vested stock options to an officer and directors with exercise prices ranging from $0.01 to $0.05, the Company recognized stock compensation expense of $295,000 related to this issuance.

The agreement also provides Palmer with the opportunity to earn a contingent fee of 5% of the value of any out-licensing, distribution or co-marketing agreements Palmer secures for the Company and an opportunity to earn 1,500,000 shares of stock upon the successful filing of an investigational new drug application in HIV with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The Company has not recorded a liability for the contingent fees due to the uncertainty that such events will occur.

MEDICAL DISCOVERIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
NOTE J — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Formation of MDI Oncology, Inc.
      On March 22, 2005, the Company formed MDI Oncology, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary to acquire and operate the assets and business associated with the Savetherapeutics transaction.
Savetherapeutics A.G. Asset Acquisition
      On March 16, 2005, Medical Discoveries, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the purchase of the intellectual property assets (the “Assets”) of Savetherapeutics AG, a German corporation in liquidation in Hamburg, Germany (“SaveT”). The Assets consist primarily of patents, patent applications, pre-clinical study data and clinical trial data concerning SaveCream, SaveT’s developmental topical aromatase inhibitor treatment for breast cancer.
      The purchase price of the Assets is 2,350,000 (approximately $3.1 million under current exchange rates) payable as follows: 500,000 at closing, 500,000 upon conclusion of certain pending transfers of patent and patent application rights from SaveT’s inventors to the Company, and 1,350,000 upon successful commercialization of the Assets. The Company’s source of funds for the acquisition is a $3 million equity investment by Mercator Momentum Fund LP and Mercator Momentum Fund III LP, as described below. Neither SaveT nor any employee of SaveT has a material relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates, any director or officer of the Company or any associate of any such director or officer.
Issuance of Series A Preferred Stock
      On or about March 14, 2005, the Company issued 30,000 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 22,877,478 shares of common stock for a total offering price of $3 million. Each share of Preferred Stock entitles the holder to convert the share of Preferred Stock into the number of shares of common stock resulting from multiplying $100 by the conversion price. The conversion price is 75% of the average of the lowest three intra-day trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, but the conversion price may not exceed $0.1967. The number of shares of common stock subject to the warrants and the exercise price are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase up to 22,877,478 shares of common stock of the Company on or before the third anniversary of the issuance date of the warrants at $0.1967 per share.
NOTE K — CUMULATIVE NET LOSS
      The Statements of Operations was amended to correct a previously reported error in the cumulative net loss amount since inception through December 31, 2003 (not presented herein). While the Company previously reported the correct cumulative net loss on the Statements of Cash Flows through December 31, 2003 (not presented herein), the same figure as reported on the Statements of Operations through December 31, 2003 (not presented herein) was erroneous based on an apparent incorrect calculation in the 1999 annual report, which error had been carried forward. The previously reported cumulative net loss amount through December 31, 2003 (not presented herein) of $14,141,763 was corrected to $14,930,259.
ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
