Part I

Item 1. Business.

Corporate History and Structure

We were incorporated in Delaware in September 1997 for the purpose of acquiring Generex Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Canadian corporation formed in November 1995 to engage in pharmaceutical and biotechnological research and development and other activities. Our acquisition of Generex Pharmaceuticals was completed in October 1997 in a transaction in which the holders of all outstanding shares of Generex Pharmaceuticals exchanged their shares for shares of our common stock.

In January 1998, we participated in a "reverse acquisition" with Green Mt. P. S., Inc., an inactive Idaho corporation formed in 1983. As a result of this transaction, our shareholders (the former shareholders of Generex Pharmaceuticals) acquired a majority (approximately 90%) of the outstanding capital stock of Green Mt., we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Mt., Green Mt. changed its corporate name to Generex Biotechnology Corporation ("Generex Idaho"), and we changed our corporate name to GB Delaware, Inc. Because the reverse acquisition resulted in our shareholders becoming the majority holders of Generex Idaho, we were treated as the acquiring corporation in the transaction for accounting purposes. Thus, our historical financial statements, which essentially represented the historical financial statements of Generex Pharmaceuticals, were deemed to be the historical financial statements of Generex Idaho.

In April 1999, we completed a reorganization in which we merged with Generex Idaho. In this transaction, all outstanding shares of Generex Idaho were converted into our shares, Generex Idaho ceased to exist as a separate entity, and we changed our corporate name back to "Generex Biotechnology Corporation." This reorganization did not result in any material change in our historical financial statements or current financial reporting.

Subsidiaries

Following our reorganization in 1999, Generex Pharmaceuticals Inc., which is incorporated in Ontario, Canada, remained as our wholly-owned subsidiary. All of our Canadian operations are performed by Generex Pharmaceuticals. Generex Pharmaceuticals is the 100% owner of 1097346 Ontario Inc., which is also incorporated in Ontario, Canada. In August 2003, we acquired Antigen Express, Inc., a Delaware incorporated company. Antigen is engaged in the research and development of technologies and immunomedicines for the treatment of malignant, infectious, autoimmune and allergic diseases. Antigen also does business under the names Generex Oncology and Generex Infectious Diseases.

We formed Generex (Bermuda), Inc., which is organized in Bermuda, in January 2001 in connection with a joint venture with Elan International Services, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Elan Corporation, plc, to pursue the application of certain of our and Elan's drug delivery technologies, including our platform technology for the buccal delivery of pharmaceutical products. In December 2004, we and Elan agreed to terminate the joint venture. Under the termination agreement, we retained all of our intellectual property rights and obtained full ownership of Generex (Bermuda). Generex (Bermuda) does not currently conduct any business activities. We have additional subsidiaries incorporated in the U.S. and Canada which are dormant and do not carry on any business activities.

Overview of Business

We are engaged primarily in the research and development of drug delivery systems and technologies. Our primary focus at the present time is our proprietary technology for the administration of formulations of large molecule drugs to the oral (buccal) cavity using a hand-held aerosol applicator. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Antigen, we have expanded our focus to include immunomedicines incorporating proprietary vaccine formulations.

We believe that our buccal delivery technology is a platform technology that has application to many large molecule drugs and provides a convenient, non-invasive, accurate and cost-effective way to administer such drugs. We have identified several large molecule drugs as possible candidates for development, including estrogen, heparin, monoclonal antibodies, human growth hormone and fertility hormones, but to date have focused our development efforts primarily on one pharmaceutical product, Generex Oral-lyn™, an insulin formulation administered as a fine spray into the oral cavity using our proprietary hand-held aerosol spray applicator known as RapidMist™.

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Antigen, concentrates on developing proprietary vaccine formulations that work by stimulating the immune system to either attack offending agents (i.e., cancer cells, bacteria, and viruses) or to stop attacking benign elements (i.e., self proteins and allergens). Our immunomedicine products are based on two platform technologies and are in the early stages of development. We continue clinical development of Antigen’s synthetic peptide vaccines designed to stimulate a potent and specific immune response against tumors expressing the HER-2/neu oncogene for patients with HER-2/neu positive breast cancer in a Phase II clinical trial and patients with prostate cancer and against avian influenza in two Phase I clinical trials. We recently initiated an additional Phase I clinical trial in patients with either breast or ovarian cancer.  The synthetic vaccine technology has certain advantages for pandemic or potentially pandemic viruses, such as the H5N1 avian and H1N1 swine flu.  In addition to developing vaccines for pandemic influenza viruses, we have vaccine development efforts underway for seasonal influenza virus, HIV, HPV, melanoma, ovarian cancer, allergy and Type I diabetes mellitus. We have established collaborations with clinical investigators at academic centers to advance these technologies.

To date, we have received regulatory approval in Ecuador, India (subject to regulatory approval of a 2012 in-country study), Lebanon and Algeria for the commercial marketing and sale of Generex Oral-lyn™. We have previously submitted regulatory dossiers for Generex Oral-lyn™ in a number of other countries, including Bangladesh, Kenya, Jordan and Armenia. While we believe these countries will ultimately approve our product for commercial sale, we do not anticipate recognizing revenues in any of these jurisdictions in the next twelve months. No dossier related activities or product shipments have taken place during fiscal 2012 or 2013, nor are any expected to these countries during the remainder of 2013.

In March 2008, we initiated Phase III clinical trials for this product in the U.S. with the first patient screening for such trials at a clinical study site in Texas in April 2008. Approximately 450 patients have been enrolled to date at approximately 70 clinical sites around the world, including sites in the United States, Canada, Bulgaria, Poland, Romania, Russia, Ukraine and Ecuador. The final subjects completed the trial in August 2011. After appropriate validation, the data from approximately 450 patients was tabulated, reviewed and analyzed. Those results from the Phase III trial along with a comprehensive review and supplemental analyses of approximately 40 prior Oral-lyn clinical studies were compiled and submitted to the FDA in late December 2011 in a comprehensive package including a composite metanalysis of all safety data. We are currently in ongoing discussions with the FDA with respect to the pathway for regulatory approval, including any additional clinical or pharmacological studies that might be required to support regulatory approval or enhance marketing success. We do not currently plan to expend significant resources on additional clinical trials of Oral-lyn™ until after such time that we secure additional financing.

In November 2008 we, together with our marketing partner Shreya Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., officially launched Generex Oral-lyn™ in India under marketing name of Oral Recosulin™. Each package of Oral Recosulin™ contains two canisters of our product along with one actuator. The product received regulatory price approval in India in January 2009. Per the requirements of the regulatory approval in India, an in-country clinical study must be completed in India with Oral Recosulin™ before commercial sales can commence. The field portion of the study was completed in the third calendar quarter of 2012.  Shreya has advised Generex that the dossier was submitted in December of 2012 to the Drugs Controller General (India) (DCGI), Central Drugs Standard Control Organization, Director General of Health Services, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. Generex has also been advised that Shreya anticipates receiving government approval for the marketing and commercial distribution of the product in 2013. We have not recognized any revenues from the sale of Generex Oral-lyn™ in India through the end of the 2013 fiscal year.

In December 2008, we, together with our marketing partner Benta S.A., received an approval to market Generex Oral-lyn™ in Lebanon. The official product launch in Lebanon took place in May 2009. In May 2009, the Algerian health authorities granted us permission to import and sell Generex Oral-lyn™ for the treatment of diabetes in Algeria. The official product launch in Algeria took place in October 2009. To date, we have not recognized any revenue from the sales of Generex Oral-lyn™ in Algeria and very minimal revenues in Lebanon. We do not anticipate significant revenues (if any) to be recognized from these jurisdictions in the next twelve months.

In October 2008, we announced the enrollment of subjects in our bioequivalence clinical trial of MetControl™, our proprietary Metformin medicinal chewing gum product, conducted in the United States. The protocol for the study is an open-label, two-treatment, two-period, randomized, crossover study comparing MetControl™ and immediate release Metformin™ tablets in healthy volunteers. The study results that we received and analyzed in December 2008 demonstrated bioequivalence. We have, however, determined that the economics of proceeding with this product do not warrant the expenditure of further resources. We have not expended resources to further develop this product during the current fiscal year, nor in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2012 and 2011 and do not currently plan to expend any further resources on this product.

We face competition from other providers of alternate forms of insulin. Some of our most significant competitors, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, and Novo Nordisk, have announced that they will discontinue development and/or sale of their inhalable forms of insulin. Generex Oral-lyn™ is not an inhaled insulin; rather, it is a buccally absorbed formulation with no residual pulmonary deposition. We believe that our buccal delivery technology offers several advantages, including the ease of use, portability, avoidance of pulmonary inhalation and safety profile. Furthermore, insulin administered through the Generex Oral-lyn™ RapidMist™ technology is absorbed directly into the blood stream and not only acts rapidly, but returns to baseline quickly, thereby minimizing the chance of developing hypoglycemia.

Large pharmaceutical companies, such as Merck & Co., Inc., GlaxoSmithKline PLC, Novartis, Inc., MedImmune Inc. (a subsidiary of Astra-Zeneca, Inc.) and others, also compete against us in the oncology, immunomedicine and vaccine markets. These companies have competing experience and expertise in securing government contracts and grants to support research and development efforts, conducting testing and clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals to market products, as well as manufacturing and marketing approved products. As such, they are also considered significant competitors in these fields of pharmaceutical products and therapies. There are also many smaller companies which are pursuing similar technologies in these fields who are considered to be competitors of Generex.

We are a development stage company with a limited history of operations, and do not expect sufficient revenues to support our operation in the immediately foreseeable future. To date, we have not been profitable and our accumulated net loss available to shareholders was $367,888,576 at July 31, 2013. As of July 31, 2013, our current cash position is not sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next twelve months. To continue operations, we will require additional funds to support our working capital requirements and any development activities, or will need to suspend operations. Management is seeking various alternatives to ensure that we can meet some of our operating cash flow requirements through financing activities, such as private placement of our common stock, preferred stock offerings and offerings of debt and convertible debt instruments as well as through merger or acquisition opportunities. In addition, management is actively seeking strategic alternatives, including strategic investments and divestitures. Management has sold its non-essential real estate assets which are classified as Assets Held for Investment to augment its cash position. We cannot provide any assurance that we will obtain the required funding. Our inability to obtain required funding in the near future or our inability to obtain funding on favorable terms will have a material adverse effect on our operations and our strategic development plan for future growth. If we cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement our strategic development plan, our liquidity, financial condition and business prospects will be materially and adversely affected and we may have to cease operations.

We operate in only one segment: the research and development of drug delivery systems and technologies for metabolic and immunological diseases.

Our Business Strategy

Our business model focuses on the research and development of diabetes, oncology and infectious diseases drugs.  This business model leverages the expertise of our management team, scientific advisory board and the history of our company. Our goal is to develop next generation drugs for diabetes, oncology and infectious disease by leveraging our buccal delivery technology to administer large and small molecule drugs, including insulin, and proprietary vaccine formulations based upon two Antigen platform technologies to provide innovative biopharmaceutical products that offer the potential for superior efficacy and safety over existing products.  To achieve these goals, the key elements of our strategy include:

Buccal Delivery Technology and Products

Our buccal delivery technology involves the preparation of proprietary formulations in which an active pharmaceutical agent is placed in a solution with a combination of absorption enhancers and other excipients classified “generally recognized as safe” ("GRAS") by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") when used in accordance with specified quantities and other limitations. The resulting formulations are aerosolized with a pharmaceutical grade chemical propellant and are administered to patients using our proprietary RapidMist™ brand metered dose inhaler. The device is a small, lightweight, hand-held, easy-to-use aerosol applicator comprised of a container for the formulation, a metered dose valve, an actuator and dust cap. Using the device, patients self-administer the formulations by spraying them into the mouth. The device contains multiple applications, the number being dependent, among other things, on the concentration of the formulation. Absorption of the pharmaceutical agent occurs in the buccal cavity, principally through the inner cheek walls. In clinical studies of our flagship oral insulin product Generex Oral-lyn™, insulin absorption in the buccal cavity has been shown to be efficacious and safe.

Buccal Insulin Product – Generex Oral-Lyn™

Insulin is a hormone that is naturally secreted by the pancreas to regulate the level of glucose, a type of sugar, in the bloodstream. The term “diabetes” refers to a group of disorders that are characterized by the inability of the body to properly regulate blood glucose levels. When glucose is abundant, it is converted into fat and stored for use when food is not available. When glucose is not available from food, these fats are broken down into free fatty acids that stimulate glucose production. Insulin acts by stimulating the use of glucose as fuel and by inhibiting the production of glucose. In a healthy individual, a balance is maintained between insulin secretion and glucose metabolism.

There are two major types of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes (juvenile onset diabetes or insulin dependent diabetes) refers to the condition where the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Type 1 diabetes accounts for 5-10 percent of diabetes cases. It often occurs in children and young adults. Type 1 diabetics must take daily insulin injections, typically three to five times per day, to regulate blood glucose levels. Generex Oral-lyn™ provides a needle-free means of delivering insulin for these patients.

In Type 2 diabetes (adult onset or non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus), the body does not produce enough insulin, or cannot properly use the insulin produced. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of the disease and accounts for 90-95 percent of diabetes cases. In addition to insulin therapy, Type 2 diabetics may take oral drugs that stimulate the production of insulin by the pancreas or that help the body to more effectively use insulin. Generex Oral-lyn™ provides a simple means of delivering needed insulin to this major cohort of individuals.

Current studies in diabetes have identified a new condition closely related to diabetes, called impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). People with IGT do not usually meet the criteria for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. They have normal fasting glucose levels but two hours after a meal their blood glucose level is far above normal. With the increase use of glucose tolerance tests the number of people diagnosed with this pre-diabetic condition is expanding exponentially. Per the 2012 Diabetes Atlas Update, published by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), approximately 26 million people in the United States and 280 million people world-wide suffer from IGT. Generex Oral-lyn™ is an ideal solution to providing meal-time insulin to the millions of IGT sufferers. This therapeutic area is currently being investigated.

If not treated, diabetes can lead to blindness, kidney disease, nerve disease, amputations, heart disease and stroke. Each year, between 12,000 and 24,000 people suffer vision impairment or complete blindness because of diabetes. Diabetes is also the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (kidney failure), accounting for about 40 percent of new cases.

In addition, about 60-70 percent of people with diabetes have mild to severe forms of diabetic nerve damage, which, in severe forms, can lead to lower limb amputations. Diabetics are also two to four times more likely to have heart disease, which is present in 75 percent of diabetes-related deaths, and are two to four times more likely to suffer a stroke.

There is no known cure for diabetes. The IDF estimates that there are currently approximately 371 million diabetics worldwide per their 2012 Diabetes Atlas Update and is expected to affect over 552 million people by the year 2030. There are estimated to be over 37 million people suffering from diabetes in North America alone and diabetes is the second largest cause of death by disease in North America.

A substantial number of large molecule drugs (i.e., drugs composed of molecules with a high molecular weight and fairly complex and large spatial orientation) have been approved for sale in the United States or are presently undergoing clinical trials as part of the process to obtain such approval, including various proteins, peptides, monoclonal antibodies, hormones and vaccines. Unlike small molecule drugs, which generally can be administered by various methods, large molecule drugs historically have been administered predominately by injection. The principal reasons for this have been the vulnerability of large molecule drugs to digestion and the relatively large size of the molecule itself, which makes absorption into the blood stream through the skin inefficient or ineffective. The RapidMist technology provides a recognized and proved drug delivery system for the delivery of large molecules directly into the blood stream with the attendant advantages.

In May 2005, we received approval from the Ecuadorian Ministry of Public Health for the commercial marketing and sale of Generex Oral-lyn™ for treatment of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. We have successfully completed the delivery and installation of a turnkey Generex Oral-lyn™ production operation at the facilities of PharmaBrand in Quito, Ecuador. The first commercial production run of Generex Oral-lyn™ in Ecuador was completed in May, 2006. While Ecuador production capability may be sufficient to meet the needs of South America, it is believed to be insufficient for worldwide production for future commercial sales and clinical trials.

On the basis of the test results in Ecuador and other pre-clinical data, we made an IND submission to Health Canada (Canada's equivalent to the FDA) in July 1998, and received permission from the Canadian regulators to proceed with clinical trials in September 1998. We filed an Investigational New Drug application with the FDA in October 1998, and received FDA approval to proceed with human trials in November 1998. Annual reports have been filed with the FDA each year since that time.

We began our clinical trial programs in Canada and the United States in January 1999. Between January 1999 and September 2000, we conducted clinical trials of our insulin formulation involving approximately 200 subjects with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and healthy volunteers. The study protocols in most trials involved administration of two different doses of our insulin formulation following either a liquid Sustacal meal or a standard meal challenge. The objective of these studies was to evaluate our insulin formulation's efficacy in controlling post-prandial (meal related) glucose levels. These trials demonstrated that our insulin formulation controlled post-prandial hyperglycemia in a manner comparable to injected insulin. In April 2003, a Phase II-B clinical trial protocol was approved in Canada. In September 2006, a Clinical Trial Application relating to our Generex Oral-lyn™ protocol for late-stage trials was approved by Health Canada. The FDA’s review period for the protocol lapsed without objection in July 2007.

In late April 2008, we initiated Phase III clinical trials in North America for Generex Oral-lyn™ with the first subject screening in Texas. Other clinical sites participating in the study are located in the United States (Texas, Maryland, Minnesota and California), Canada (Alberta), European Union (Romania, Poland and Bulgaria), Eastern Europe (Russia and Ukraine),) and Ecuador. At present, approximately 450 subjects have been enrolled in the program at approximately 70 clinical sites around the world. The Phase III protocol called for a six-month trial with a six-month follow-up with the primary objective to compare the efficacy of Generex Oral-lyn™ and the RapidMist™ Diabetes Management System with that of standard regular injectable human insulin therapy as measured by HbA1c, in patients with Type-1 diabetes mellitus. The final subjects completed the trial in August 2011. After appropriate validation, the data from approximately 450 patients was tabulated, reviewed and analyzed. Those results from the Phase III trial along with a comprehensive review and supplemental analyses of approximately 40 prior Oral-lyn clinical studies were compiled and submitted to the FDA in late December 2011 in a comprehensive package including a composite metanalysis of all safety data. We are currently in ongoing discussions with the FDA with respect to the pathway for regulatory approval, including any additional clinical or pharmacological studies that might be required to support regulatory approval or enhance marketing success. We do not currently plan to expend significant resources on additional clinical trials of Oral-lyn™ until after such time that we secure additional financing.

We engaged a global clinical research organization to provide many study related site services, including initiation, communication with sites, project management and documentation; a global central lab service company to arrange for the logistics of kits and blood samples shipment and testing; an Internet-based clinical electronic data management company to assist us with global data entry, project management and data storage/processing of the Phase III clinical trial and regulatory processes. We contracted with our third-party manufacturers to produce sufficient quantities of the RapidMist™ components, the insulin, and the raw material excipients required for the production of clinical trial batches of Generex Oral-lyn™.

As described above, we have obtained regulatory approval for the commercial marketing and sale of Generex Oral-lyn™ in Ecuador, India (subject to regulatory approval of a 2012 in-country study), Lebanon and Algeria.

Other Potential Buccal Products

We have had past discussions regarding possible research collaborations with various pharmaceutical companies concerning use of our large molecule drug delivery technology with other compounds, including monoclonal antibodies, human growth hormone, fertility hormone, estrogen and heparin, and a number of vaccines. We have not expended resources to further develop any of these products during the fiscal years ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 and do not currently have any plans to expend further resources on these products.

Immunomedicine Technology and Products

Our wholly-owned subsidiary Antigen Express is developing proprietary vaccine formulations based upon two platform technologies that were discovered by its founder, the Ii-Key hybrid peptides and Ii-Suppression. These technologies are applicable for either antigen-specific immune stimulation or suppression, depending upon the dosing and formulation of its products. Using active stimulation, we are focusing on major diseases such as breast, prostate and ovarian cancer, melanoma, influenza (including H5N1 avian and H1N1 swine flu) and HIV. Autoimmune diseases such as diabetes and multiple sclerosis are the focus of our antigen-specific immune suppression work.

Antigen’s immunotherapeutic vaccine AE37 is currently in Phase II clinical trials for patients with HER-2/neu positive breast cancer. The trial is being conducted with the United States Military Cancer Institute's (USMCI) Clinical Trials Group and will examine the rate of relapse in patients with node-positive or high-risk node-negative breast cancer after two years. The study is randomized and will compare patients treated with AE37 plus the adjuvant GM-CSF versus GM-CSF alone. The Phase II trial follows a Phase I trial that demonstrated safety, tolerability, and immune stimulation of the AE37 vaccine in breast cancer patients.

Based on positive results in trials of the AE37 vaccine in breast cancer patients, we entered into an agreement in August 2006 with the Euroclinic, a private center in Athens, Greece, to commence clinical trials with the same compound as an immunotherapeutic vaccine for prostate cancer. A Phase I trial involving 29 patients was completed in August 2009, which similarly showed safety, tolerability and induction of a specific immune response. Agreements, as well as a protocol, are in place for initiation of a Phase II clinical trial once additional funding is available.

The same technology used to enhance immunogenicity is being applied in the development of a synthetic peptide vaccine for H5N1 avian influenza and the 2009 H1N1 swine flu. In April 2007, a Phase I clinical trial of Antigen’s proprietary peptides derived from the hemagglutinin protein of the H5N1 avian influenza virus was initiated in healthy volunteers in the Lebanese-Canadian Hospital in Beirut, Lebanon. We have completed the first portion of the Phase I trial. Modified peptide vaccines for avian influenza offer several advantages over traditional egg-based or cell-culture based vaccines. Modified peptide vaccines can be manufactured by an entirely synthetic process which reduces cost and increases both the speed and quantity of vaccine relative to egg- or cell-culture based vaccines. Another advantage is that the peptides are derived from regions of the virus that are similar enough in all H5N1 and H1N1 virus strains such that they would not have to be newly designed for the specific strain to emerge in a pandemic.

A Physician’s Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application for the Phase I and Phase II trials in patients with stage II HER-2/neu positive breast cancer has been filed with the FDA. The Phase I trial was completed at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., and the Phase II trial is taking place at 13 sites, including 11 in the U.S., one in Germany and one in Greece. A Physician’s Investigational New Drug application for a Phase I trial in patients with breast or ovarian cancer also has been filed with the FDA and this Phase I trial is being conducted in Dallas, Texas at the Mary Crowley Cancer Center. Applications were filed and approvals obtained for a Phase I prostate cancer trial using AE37 in Athens, Greece from the Hellenic Organization of Drugs, and this Phase I trial was completed in August 2009. The Ministry of Health in Lebanon gave approval for Phase I trial of our experimental H5N1 prophylactic vaccine in Beirut, Lebanon following submission of an application. All other immunomedicine products are in the pre-clinical stage of development.

Government Regulation

Our research and development activities and the manufacturing and marketing of our pharmaceutical products are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA in the United States, Health Canada in Canada and comparable designated regulatory authorities in other countries. Among other things, extensive regulations require us to satisfy numerous conditions before we can bring products to market. While these regulations apply to all competitors in our industry, having a technology that is unique and novel extends the requisite review period by the various divisions within the FDA and other regulators. Also, other companies in our industry are not limited primarily to products which still need to be approved by government regulators, as we are now.

If requisite regulatory approvals are not obtained and maintained, our business will be substantially harmed. In many cases, we expect that extant and prospective development partners will participate in the regulatory approval process. The following discussion summarizes the principal features of food and drug regulation in the United States and other countries as they affect our business.

United States

All aspects of our research, development and foreseeable commercial activities relating to pharmaceutical products are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the United States. United States federal and state statutes and regulations govern, among other things, the testing, manufacturing, safety, efficacy, labeling, storage, record keeping, approval, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. The regulatory approval process, including clinical trials, usually takes several years and requires the expenditure of substantial resources. If regulatory approval of a product is granted, the approval may include significant limitations on the uses for which the product may be marketed.

The steps required before a pharmaceutical product may be marketed in the United States include:

• Conducting appropriate pre-clinical laboratory evaluations, including animal studies, in compliance with the FDA’s Good Laboratory Practice (“GLP”) requirements, to assess the potential safety and efficacy of the product, and to characterize and document the product’s chemistry, manufacturing controls, formulation and stability;

• Submitting the results of these evaluations and tests to the FDA, along with manufacturing information, analytical data, and protocols for clinical studies, in an IND Application, and receiving approval from the FDA that the clinical studies proposed under the IND are allowed to proceed;

• Obtaining approval of Institutional Review Boards (“IRBs”) to administer the product to humans in clinical studies; conducting adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials in compliance with the FDA’s Good Clinical Practice (“GCP”) requirements that establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for the intended use;

• Developing manufacturing processes which conform to the FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practices, or cGMPs, as confirmed by FDA inspection;

• Submitting to the FDA the results of pre-clinical studies, clinical studies, and adequate data on chemistry, manufacturing and control information to ensure reproducible product quality batch after batch, in an NDA or Biologics License Application (“BLA”); and

• Obtaining FDA approval of the NDA, including inspection and approval of the product manufacturing facility as compliant with cGMP requirements, prior to any commercial sale or shipment of the pharmaceutical agent.

Quality and pre-clinical tests and studies include: laboratory evaluation of Drug Substance and Drug Product chemistry, formulation/manufacturing, and stability profiling, as well as a large number of animal studies to assess the potential safety and efficacy of each product. Typically, the pre-clinical studies consist of the following:

Pharmacology

· Primary and Secondary Pharmacodynamics

· Safety Pharmacology

· Other Pharmacodynamics

Pharmacokinetics (“PK”)

· Single and Multiple Dose Kinetics

· Tissue Distribution

· Metabolism

· PK Drug Interactions

· Other PK studies

Toxicology

· Single and Multiple Dose Toxicity

· Genotoxicity

· Carcinogenicity

· Reproduction Toxicity

· Other Toxicity

The results of the quality and pre-clinical tests/studies, in addition to any non-clinical pharmacology, are submitted to the FDA along with the initial clinical study protocol (see descriptive of process below) as part of the initial IND and are reviewed by the FDA before the commencement of human clinical trials. Unless the FDA objects to it, the IND becomes effective 30 days following its receipt by the FDA. The FDA reviews all protocols, protocol amendments, adverse event reports, study reports, and annual reports in connection with a new pharmacological product.

The IND for our oral insulin formulation became effective in November 1998. Amendments are also subsequently filed as new Clinical Studies and their corresponding Study Protocols are proposed. In July 2007, we received a no objection clearance to initiate our Phase III study protocol for our oral insulin product. The Physician’s Investigational New Drug Application for the Phase 1 and Phase II trial of AE37, Antigen’s synthetic peptide vaccine designed to stimulate a potent and specific immune response against tumors expressing the HER-2/neu oncogene, in patients with stage II HER-2/neu positive breast cancer became effective in March 2006. 

Clinical trials involve the administration of a new drug to humans under the supervision of qualified investigators. The protocols for the trials must be submitted to the FDA as part of the IND. Also, each clinical trial must be approved and conducted under the auspices of an IRB, which considers, among other things, ethical factors, the safety of human subjects, and the possible liability of the institution conducting the clinical trials.

Clinical trials are typically conducted in three sequential phases (Phase I, Phase II, and Phase III), but the phases may overlap. Phase I clinical trials test the drug on healthy human subjects for safety and other aspects, but usually not effectiveness. Phase II clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the drug for specific purposes, to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosages, and to identify possible adverse effects and safety risks. When a compound has shown evidence of efficacy and acceptable safety in Phase II evaluations, Phase III clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate and confirm clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population at clinical trial sites in different geographical locations.  The FDA and other regulatory authorities require that the safety and efficacy of therapeutic product candidates be supported through at least two adequate and well-controlled Phase III clinical trials (known as “Pivotal Trials”).  The successful completion of Phase III clinical trials is a mandatory step in the approval process for the manufacturing, marketing, and sale of products.

In the United States, the results of quality, pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, if successful, are submitted to the FDA in an NDA to seek approval to market and commercialize the drug product for a specified use. The NDA is far more specific than the IND and must also include proposed labeling and detailed technical sections based on the data collected. The FDA is governed by the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (“PDUFA”) regarding response time to the application, which is generally 12 months (and shorter for a priority application). It may deny a NDA if it believes that applicable regulatory criteria are not satisfied. The FDA also may require additional clarifications on the existing application or even additional testing for safety and efficacy of the drug. We cannot be sure that any of our proposed products will receive FDA approval. The multi-tiered approval process means that our products could fail to advance to subsequent steps without the requisite data, studies, and FDA approval along the way. Even if approved by the FDA, our products and the facilities used to manufacture our products will remain subject to review and periodic inspection by the FDA.

To supply drug products for use in the United States, foreign and domestic manufacturing facilities must be registered with, and approved by, the FDA. Manufacturing facilities must also comply with the FDA's cGMPs, and such facilities are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA. Products manufactured outside the United States are inspected by regulatory authorities in those countries under agreements with the FDA.  To comply with cGMPs, manufacturers must expend substantial funds, time and effort in the area of production and quality control.  The FDA stringently applies its regulatory standards for manufacturing. Discovery of previously unknown problems with respect to a product, manufacturer or facility may result in consequences with commercial significance. These include restrictions on the product, manufacturer or facility, suspensions of regulatory approvals, operating restrictions, delays in obtaining new product approvals, withdrawals of the product from the market, product recalls, fines, injunctions and criminal prosecution.

One final hurdle that is closely associated with the cGMP inspections is the pre-approval inspection that the FDA carries out prior to the issuance of a marketing license. FDA inspectors combine cGMP compliance with a review of research and development documents that were used in the formal NDA. A close inspection of historic data is reviewed to confirm data and to demonstrate that a company has carried out the activities as presented in the NDA. This is generally a long inspection and requires a team of individuals from the company to “host” the FDA inspector(s).

Foreign Countries

Before we are permitted to market any of our products outside of the United States, those products will be subject to regulatory approval by foreign government agencies similar to the FDA.  These requirements vary widely from country to country. Generally, however, no action can be taken to market any drug product in a country until an appropriate application has been submitted by a sponsor and approved by the regulatory authorities in that country. Again, similar to the FDA, each country will mandate a specific financial consideration for the Marketing Application dossiers being submitted. Although an important consideration, FDA approval does not assure approval by other regulatory authorities. The current approval process varies from country to country, and the time spent in gaining approval varies from that required for FDA approval. The Canadian regulatory process is substantially similar to that of the United States. To date, we have received the following foreign regulatory approval for our product candidates:

Marketing and Distribution

We market our products through collaborative arrangements with companies that have well-established pharmaceutical marketing and distribution capabilities, including expertise in the regulatory approval processes in their respective jurisdictions.

We have entered into licensing and distribution agreements with a number of multinational distributors to assist us with the process of gaining regulatory approval for the registration, marketing, distribution, and sale of Generex Oral-lyn™ in countries throughout the world, including:

Under these licensing and distribution agreements excluding the one with Dong Sung Pharm Co., we will not receive an upfront license fee, but the distributor will bear any and all costs associated with the procurement of governmental approvals for the sale of Generex Oral-Lyn™, including any clinical and regulatory costs. We possess the worldwide marketing rights to our oral insulin product. We do not currently plan to expend significant resources on additional clinical trials or to further the commercialization of Generex Oral-lyn™ until after such time that we secure additional financing.

Manufacturing

In December 2000, we completed a pilot manufacturing facility for Generex Oral-lyn™ in Toronto, Canada in the same commercial complex in which our laboratories were located. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, we initiated a scale-up commercial production run of several thousand canisters of Generex Oral-lyn™ at this facility. We have sold the property which housed the manufacturing and laboratory facility in July 2012 and expect to engage contract manufacturers in order to manufacture any product in significant quantities for any future commercial sales and clinical trials.

In March 2006, we successfully completed the delivery and installation of a turnkey Generex Oral-lyn™ filling operation at the facilities of PharmaBrand, in Quito, Ecuador for the purposes of commercial supply and sales in Ecuador and other countries that can procure registrations and import licenses. We do not currently have a manufacturing agreement with PharmaBrand and are not currently manufacturing product at this facility.

In anticipation of undertaking late-stage clinical trials of Generex Oral-lyn™ in Canada, we entered into an agreement with Cardinal Health PTS, LLC, now known as Catalent Pharma Solutions (Catalent), in June 2006, pursuant to which Catalent manufactured clinical trial batches of Generex Oral-lyn™. Pursuant to pre-extant supply arrangements, our third-party suppliers had been manufacturing the quantities of the RapidMist™ brand metered dose inhaler components (valves, canisters, actuators, and dust caps), the insulin, and the formulary excipients that were required for the Catalent production. In addition, our Regulatory Affairs, Quality Control and R&D personnel have worked with Catalent to prepare and validate the Catalent production processes. We are not currently manufacturing product under this agreement and we expect that any agreements regarding the manufacturing of Generex Oral-lyn™ for any future trials or commercial sales will need to be renegotiated at such time.

Our subsidiary Antigen leases office and laboratory space in Worcester, Massachusetts, which is sufficient for its present needs. The laboratory has permission to store and use biohazardous (including recombinant DNA materials) and flammable chemicals.

Raw Material Supplies

The excipients used in our formulation are available from numerous sources in sufficient quantities for clinical purposes, and we believe that they will be available in sufficient quantities for commercial purposes when required, although we have not yet attempted to secure a guaranteed commercial supply of any such products. Components suitable for our RapidMist™ brand metered dose inhaler are available from a limited number of potential suppliers, as is the chemical propellant used in the device. The components which now comprise the device are expected to be used in the commercial version of our insulin product in Ecuador, India, Lebanon and Algeria. We have secured supply arrangements with manufacturers for each of the components and the propellant that we presently use in our RapidMist™ brand metered dose inhaler for commercial quantities of such components. All such suppliers are prominent, reputable and reliable suppliers to the pharmaceutical industry. Because we now have a single supplier for many of these, however, we are more vulnerable to supply interruptions than would be the case if we had multiple suppliers for each component. We do not believe that the risk of supply for proprietary raw materials or device components is unusual in the pharmaceutical industry.

Insulin is available worldwide from only a few sources. However, alternative supplies of insulin are under development. On December 7, 2009, we entered into a long-term agreement with sanofi-aventis Deutschland GmbH (“sanofi-aventis”).  Under this agreement, sanofi-aventis will manufacture and supply recombinant human insulin to us in the territories specified in the agreement.  Through this agreement, we will procure recombinant human insulin crystals for use in the production of Generex Oral-lyn™.  The terms of the supply agreement required us to make certain minimum purchases of insulin from sanofi-aventis through the period ending December 31, 2011. As we did not meet the minimum purchase requirements by December 31, 2011, sanofi-aventis may terminate the agreement. Upon termination, we would be obligated to pay sanofi-aventis for all materials and components that it has acquired or ordered to manufacture insulin based on our forecasts or minimum purchase commitments, all related work-in-progress (at cost) and all finished insulin in inventory. We did not provide any forecasts to sanofi-aventis and have not included any accruals related to the purchase commitments in our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, nor has sanofi-aventis terminated the agreement.

Intellectual Property

We hold a number of patents in the United States and foreign countries covering our buccal and other delivery technologies. We also have developed brand names and trademarks for products in appropriate areas. We consider the overall protection of our patent, trademark and other intellectual property rights to be of material value and acts to protect these rights from infringement.

Patents are a key determinant of market exclusivity for most branded pharmaceutical products. Protection for individual products or technologies extends for varying periods, in accordance with the expiration dates of patents in the various countries. The protection afforded, which may also vary from country to country, depends upon the type of patent, its scope of coverage and the availability of meaningful legal remedies in the country.

We currently have nineteen issued U.S. patents and one pending U.S. patent applications pertaining to various aspects of drug delivery technology, including oral administration of macromolecular formulations (such as insulin) as well as pain relief medications such as morphine and fentanyl. We currently hold eight issued Canadian patents and one pending Canadian patent applications also relating to various aspects of drug delivery technology. We also hold thirty-nine issued patents and seven pending patent applications covering our drug delivery technology in jurisdictions other than the U.S. and Canada, including Brazil, Argentina, Israel, Australia and several European countries.

The expiration dates of the U.S. issued patents range from 2016 to 2022. The expiration dates of the patents issued in Canada range from 2015 to 2021. The expiration dates of the patents issued in other jurisdictions range from 2015 to 2028.

We had an indirect interest in eighteen drug delivery patents held by another company, Centrum Biotechnologies, Inc. The expiration dates of these patents ranged from 2014 to 2016 and as it was unlikely that we could make commercial use of the patents prior to their expiration dates, we have let these patents lapse.

In addition to patents, we hold intellectual property in the form of trademark applications or registrations for GENEREX BIOTECHNOLOGY (Design), GENEREX BIOTECHNOLOGY (Logo), GENEREX ORAL-LYN, ORAL LYN, ORAL-LYN and RAPIDMIST in various jurisdictions in the world. Trademarks have no effect on market exclusivity for a product, but are considered to have marketing value if products bearing the trademark are to be sold commercially. Trademark protection continues in some countries as long as used; in other countries, as long as registered. Registration is for fixed terms and can be renewed indefinitely.

Our subsidiary Antigen Express currently holds ten issued U.S. patents and twenty-eight other foreign patents. There are also seventeen pending patent applications worldwide concerning technology for modulating the immune system via activation of antigen-specific helper T lymphocytes, including seven in the U.S. and ten in other countries. Some of these patents are held under exclusive licenses from the University of Massachusetts. Dr. Robert Humphreys, a retired officer of Antigen, is the listed inventor or co-inventor on many of these patents and patent applications, including those licensed from the University of Massachusetts.

The expiration dates of the Antigen U.S. issued patents range from 2013 to 2028. The expiration dates of the patents issued in other jurisdictions range from 2014 to 2023.

We possess the worldwide manufacturing and marketing rights to our oral insulin product.

Our long-term success will substantially depend upon our ability to obtain patent protection for our technology and our ability to protect our technology from infringement, misappropriation, discovery and duplication. We cannot be sure that any of our pending patent applications will be granted, or that any patents which we own or obtain in the future will fully protect our position. Our patent rights and the patent rights of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies in general, are highly uncertain and include complex legal and factual issues. We believe that our existing technology and the patents which we hold or for which we have applied do not infringe anyone else's patent rights. We believe our patent rights will provide meaningful protection against others duplicating our proprietary technologies. We cannot be sure of this, however, because of the complexity of the legal and scientific issues that could arise in litigation over these issues. See the discussion under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the heading “Legal Proceedings” in this prospectus.

We also rely on trade secrets and other unpatented proprietary information. We seek to protect this information, in part, by confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators.

Competition

We expect that products based upon our buccal delivery technology and any other products that we may develop will compete directly with products developed by other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, universities, government agencies and public and private research organizations.

Products developed by our competitors may use a different active pharmaceutical agent or treatment to treat the same medical condition or indication as our product or may provide for the delivery of substantially the same active pharmaceutical ingredient as our products using different methods of administration. For example, a number of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are engaged in various stages of research, development and testing of alternatives to insulin therapy for the treatment of diabetes, as well as new methods of delivering insulin. These methods, including nasal, transdermal, needle-free (high pressure) injection and pulmonary, may ultimately successfully deliver insulin to diabetic patients. Some biotechnology companies also have developed different technologies to enhance the presentation of peptide antigens. Some of our competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater scientific research and product development capabilities, as well as financial, marketing and human resources, than we do.

Where the same or substantially the same active ingredient is available using alternative delivery means or the same or substantially the same result is achievable with a different treatment or technology, we expect that competition among products will be based, among other things, on product safety, efficacy, ease of use, availability, price, marketing and distribution. When different active pharmaceutical ingredients are involved, these same competitive factors will apply to both the active agent and the delivery method.

We consider other drug delivery and biotechnology companies to be direct competitors for the cooperation and support of major drug and biotechnology companies that own or market proprietary pharmaceutical compounds and technologies, as well as for the ultimate patient market. Of primary concern to us are the competitor companies that are known to be developing delivery systems for insulin and other pharmaceutical agents that we have identified as product candidates and technologies to enhance the presentation of peptide antigens.

Large pharmaceutical companies, such as Merck & Co., Inc., GlaxoSmithKline PLC, Novartis, Inc., MedImmune Inc. (a subsidiary of Astra-Zeneca, Inc.) and others, also compete in the oncology, immunomedicine and vaccine markets. These companies have greater experience and expertise in securing government contracts and grants to support research and development efforts, conducting testing and clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals to market products, as well as manufacturing and marketing approved products. As such, they are also considered significant competitors in these fields of pharmaceutical products and therapies. There are also many smaller companies which are pursuing similar technologies in these fields and are considered to be competitors of Generex.

The following descriptions of our competitors and their products were obtained from their filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, information available on their web sites and industry research reports.

Buccal Insulin Product

There are also a number of companies developing alternative means of delivering insulin in the form of oral pills, transdermal patches, and intranasal methods, which are at early stages of development. In addition to other delivery systems for insulin, there are numerous products, such as sulfonylureas (Amaryl®and Glynase®), biguanides (branded and generic metformin products), thiazolidinediones (Avandia®and Actos®), glucagon-like peptide 1 (Byetta®and Victoza®), and dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors (Januvia® and Onglyza™), which have been approved for use in the treatment of Type 2 diabetics in substitution of, or in addition to, insulin therapy. These products may also be considered to compete with insulin products.

Immunomedicine Technology and Products

In addition to the companies listed above, there are a number of companies which are pursuing cancer treatments using immunotherapy technologies which have products in various clinical trial stages. Some of these companies are Argos Therapeutics Inc., Celldex Therapeutics Inc., Northwest Therapeutics Inc., Immatics Biotechnology GmbH, Immunocellular Therapeutics Ltd., TVAX Biomedical Inc. and Newlink Genetics Corporation. These companies can also be considered to be competitors.

Environmental Compliance

Our manufacturing, research and development activities involve the controlled use of hazardous materials and chemicals. We believe that our procedures for handling and disposing of these materials comply with all applicable government regulations. However, we cannot eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials. If an accident occurred, we could be held liable for damages, and these damages could severely impact our financial condition. We are also subject to many environmental, health and workplace safety laws and regulations, particularly those governing laboratory procedures, exposure to blood-borne pathogens, and the handling of hazardous biological materials. Violations and the cost of compliance with these laws and regulations could adversely affect us. However, we do not believe that compliance with the United States, Canadian or other environmental laws will have a material effect on us in the foreseeable future.

Research and Development Expenditures

A substantial portion of our activities to date have been in research and development. In the period from inception to July 31, 2013, our expenditures on research and development were $134,168,688. This included $2,192,724 in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, $4,987,236 in the year ended July 31, 2012 and $10,250,397 in the year ended July 31, 2011. Research and development activities in 2013 and 2012 decreased from 2011, as we neared completion of the global Phase III clinical trial of our oral insulin product. Additionally, we did not enter in to any new clinical trials due to lack of available funding.

Financial Information About Geographic Areas

The regions in which we had identifiable assets and revenues and the amounts of such identifiable assets and revenues for each of the last three fiscal years are presented in Note 16 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this annual report. Identifiable assets are those that can be directly associated with a geographic area.

Employees

At September 30, 2013, we had nine full-time employees, including our employees at Antigen. Six of our employees are executive and administrative, two are scientific and technical personnel who engage primarily in development activities and in preparing formulations for testing and clinical trials, and one is engaged in corporate and product promotion. We believe our employee relations are good. None of our employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

We will continue to need qualified scientific personnel and personnel with experience in clinical testing, government regulation and manufacturing. We may have difficulty in obtaining qualified scientific and technical personnel as there is strong competition for such personnel from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, as well as universities and research institutions. Our business could be materially harmed if we are unable to recruit and retain qualified scientific, administrative and executive personnel to support our expanding activities, or if one or more members of our limited scientific and management staff were unable or unwilling to continue their association with us. We have fixed-term agreements with only certain members of our key management and scientific staff, Mark Fletcher, President, President and CEO, Eric von Hofe, President of Antigen, and Nikoletta Kallinteris, Senior Research Associate of Antigen.

We use non-employee consultants to assist us in formulating research and development strategy, in preparing regulatory submissions, in developing protocols for clinical trials, and in designing, equipping and staffing our manufacturing facilities. We also use non-employee consultants to assist us in business development. These consultants and advisors usually have the right to terminate their relationship with us on short notice. Loss of some of these key advisors could interrupt or delay development of one or more of our products or otherwise adversely affect our business plans.

Available Information

We were incorporated in the State of Delaware in 1997. Our principal executive offices are located at 555 Richmond Street West, Suite 604, Toronto, Canada, and our telephone number at that address is (416) 364-2551.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business and results of operations are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and other factors that you should be aware of, some of which are described below. The risks, uncertainties and other factors described below are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks, uncertainties and other factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations.

Any of the risks, uncertainties and other factors could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations and could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline substantially.

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition

We will require additional financing to continue our operations.

As of July 31, 2013, our current cash position is not sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next twelve months based on the pace of our planned activities. To continue operations, we will require additional funds to support our working capital requirements and any expansion or other activities, or will need to significantly reduce our clinical trials and other planned activities or suspend operations. Management is seeking various alternatives to ensure that we can meet some of our operating cash flow requirements through financing activities, such as private placement of our common stock, preferred stock offerings and offerings of debt and convertible debt instruments as well as through merger or acquisition opportunities. The securities purchase agreements that we entered into on January 31, 2012, August 8, 2012, December 10, 2012 and June 17, 2013 with certain investors limits the financing activities that we may undertake in the near future as it prohibits us from (i) issuing additional equity securities until 60 days after the effective date of a registration statement covering the resale of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and conversion of the preferred stock sold in each transaction and (ii) issuing additional debt or equity securities with a variable conversion or exercise price until February 1, 2013, August 10, 2013, December 10, 2013 and June 17, 2014, respectively. In addition, management is actively seeking strategic alternatives, including strategic investments and divestitures. Management has sold, and is also seeking further sales of, non-essential real estate assets which are classified as Assets Held for Investment to augment its cash position.

We cannot provide any assurance that we will obtain the required funding. Our inability to obtain required funding in the near future or our inability to obtain funding on favorable terms will have a material adverse effect on our operations and our strategic development plan for future growth. If we cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement our strategic development plan, our liquidity, financial condition and business prospects will be materially and adversely affected and we may have to cease operations.

We have a history of losses and will incur additional losses.

We are a development stage company with a limited history of operations, and do not expect sufficient revenues to support our operation in the immediately foreseeable future. We do not expect to receive significant revenues in Ecuador, Algeria and Lebanon where we have been approved for commercial sale in the next twelve months. While we have entered into a licensing and distribution agreement with a leading Indian-based pharmaceutical company and insulin distributor, we do not anticipate recognizing revenue from sales of Generex Oral-lyn™ in India in fiscal 2013, as our partner has to finalize the results of an in-country clinical study and receive approval from the Indian regulatory authority before the product can be offered for commercial sale in India.

To date, we have not been profitable and our accumulated net loss available to shareholders was $367,888,576 at July 31, 2013. Our losses have resulted principally from costs incurred in research and development, including clinical trials, and from general and administrative costs associated with our operations. While we seek to attain profitability, we cannot be sure that we will ever achieve product and other revenue sufficient for us to attain this objective.

With the exception of Generex Oral-lyn™, which has received regulatory approval in Ecuador, India (subject to regulatory approval of a 2012 in-country study), Lebanon and Algeria, our product candidates are in research or early stages of pre-clinical and clinical development. We will need to conduct substantial additional research, development and clinical trials. We will also need to receive necessary regulatory clearances both in the United States and foreign countries and obtain meaningful patent protection for and establish freedom to commercialize each of our product candidates. We must also complete further clinical trials and seek regulatory approvals for Generex Oral-lyn™ in countries outside of Ecuador, India, Lebanon and Algeria. We cannot be sure that we will obtain required regulatory approvals, or successfully research, develop, commercialize, manufacture and market any other product candidates. We expect that these activities, together with future general and administrative activities, will result in significant expenses for the foreseeable future.

Our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of July 31, 2013.

To date, we have not been profitable and our accumulated net loss available to shareholders was $367,888,576 at July 31, 2013, and our consolidated balance sheet reflected a stockholders’ deficiency of $10,141,332 at that date. We received a report from our independent auditors for the year ended July 31, 2013 that includes an explanatory paragraph describing an uncertainty as to Generex’s ability to continue as a going concern. We must secure financing to continue our operations.

Due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, our internal controls were determined not to be effective for the prior fiscal year ended July 31, 2012. Our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective in future periods as a result of existing or newly identified material weaknesses in internal controls.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reasonable assurance with respect to our financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reasonable assurance with respect to our financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results could be harmed. Pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we are required to furnish a report by management on internal control over financial reporting, including management’s assessment of the effectiveness of such control. Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud. Therefore, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, including any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or if we experience difficulties in their implementation, our business and operating results could be adversely impacted, we could fail to meet our reporting obligations, and our business and stock price could be adversely affected.

At July 31, 2012, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and concluded that, subject to the inherent limitations identified in Item 9A of Part II of the Form 10-K filed on October 15, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the existence of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting because of inadequate segregation of duties over authorization, review and recording of transactions, as well as the financial reporting of such transactions. Our independent auditors issued an adverse attestation report regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting at July 31, 2012.

We believe we have taken appropriate and reasonable steps to make the necessary improvements to remediate these deficiencies, however we cannot be certain that our remediation efforts will ensure that our management designs, implements and maintains adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future or that the changes made will be sufficient to address and eliminate the material weaknesses previously identified. Our inability to remedy any additional deficiencies or material weaknesses that may be identified in the future could, among other things, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as impair our ability to meet our quarterly, annual and other reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in a timely manner, and require us to incur additional costs or to divert management resources.

Our research and development and commercialization efforts may depend on entering into agreements with corporate collaborators.

Because we have limited resources, we have sought to enter into collaboration agreements with other pharmaceutical companies that will assist us in developing, testing, obtaining governmental approval for and commercializing products using our buccal delivery and immunomedicine technologies. We may be unable to achieve commercialization of any of our products until we obtain a large pharmaceutical partner to assist us in such commercialization efforts. To date, we have not entered into any such collaborative arrangements. Any collaborator with whom we may enter into such collaboration agreements may not support fully our research and commercial interests since our program may compete for time, attention and resources with such collaborator's internal programs. Therefore, these collaborators may not commit sufficient resources to our program to move it forward effectively, or that the program will advance as rapidly as it might if we had retained complete control of all research, development, regulatory and commercialization decisions.

Risks Related to Our Technologies

With the exception of Generex Oral-lyn™, our technologies and products are at an early stage of development and we cannot expect significant revenues in respect thereof in the foreseeable future.

We have no products approved for commercial sale at the present time with the exception of Generex Oral-lyn™ in Ecuador, Lebanon, Algeria and India (subject to regulatory approval of a 2012 in-country study). To be profitable, we must not only successfully research, develop and obtain regulatory approval for our products under development, but also manufacture, introduce, market and distribute them once development is completed or find a partner that can perform these activities on our behalf. We have yet to manufacture, market and distribute these products on a large-scale commercial basis, and we do not expect to receive significant revenues from product sales in fiscal year 2014. We may not be successful in one or more of these stages of the development or commercialization of our products, and/or any of the products we develop may not be commercially viable. Until we can establish that they are commercially viable products, we will not receive significant revenues from ongoing operations.

Until we receive regulatory approval to sell our pharmaceutical products in additional countries, our ability to generate revenues from operations may be limited and those revenues may be insufficient to sustain operations. Many factors impact our ability to obtain approvals for commercially viable products.

Our only pharmaceutical product that has been approved for commercial sale by drug regulatory authorities is our oral insulin spray formulation, and that approval was obtained in Ecuador, Lebanon, Algeria and India (subject to regulatory approval of a 2012 in-country study). We have begun the regulatory approval process for our oral insulin, buccal morphine and fentanyl products in other countries, and we have initiated late stage clinical trials of Generex Oral-lyn™ at clinical trial sites in North America and other countries according to the initial Phase III clinical plan. The final subjects completed the trial in August 2011. After appropriate validation, the data from approximately 450 patients was tabulated, reviewed and analyzed. Those results from the Phase III trial along with a comprehensive review and supplemental analyses of approximately 40 prior Oral-lyn clinical studies were compiled and submitted to the FDA in late December 2011 in a comprehensive package including a composite metanalysis of all safety data. We are currently in ongoing discussions with the FDA with respect to the pathway for regulatory approval, including any additional clinical or pharmacological studies that might be required to support regulatory approval or enhance marketing success. We do not currently plan to expend significant resources on additional clinical trials of Oral-lyn™ until after such time that we secure additional financing.

Our immunomedicine products are in the pre-clinical stage of development, with the exception of a Phase II trial in human patients with stage II HER-2/neu positive breast cancer (U.S.), a Phase I trial in human patients with prostate cancer (Athens, Greece) completed in August 2009, a Phase I trial in human patients with breast or ovarian cancer (U.S.) and a Phase I trial in human volunteers of a peptide vaccine for use against the H5N1 avian influenza virus (Beirut, Lebanon). Preliminary results from the Phase II breast cancer trial suggest a 46% reduction in breast cancer recurrence in low HER2 expressing tumors, together with an excellent safety profile. We expect to complete the trial and finalize results in the fourth quarter of the 2013 calendar year and while preliminary results are promising, they are not statistically significant and final results could deviate.

Pre-clinical and clinical trials of our products, and the manufacturing and marketing of our technologies, are subject to extensive, costly and rigorous regulation by governmental authorities in the United States, Canada and other countries. The process of obtaining required regulatory approvals from the FDA and other regulatory authorities often takes many years, is expensive and can vary significantly based on the type, complexity and novelty of the product candidates. For these reasons, it is possible we will not receive regulatory approval for any prescription pharmaceutical product candidate in any countries other than Ecuador, Lebanon, Algeria and India.

In addition, we cannot be sure when or if we will be permitted by regulatory agencies to undertake additional clinical trials or to commence any particular phase of clinical trials. Because of this, statements in this Annual report or our reports filed with the SEC regarding the expected timing of clinical trials cannot be regarded as actual predictions of when we will obtain regulatory approval for any "phase" of clinical trials.

Delays in obtaining United States or other foreign approvals for our oral insulin product could result in substantial additional costs to us, and, therefore, could adversely affect our ability to continue operations. If regulatory approval is ultimately granted in any countries other than Ecuador, Lebanon, Algeria and India, the approval may place limitations on the intended use of the product we wish to commercialize, and may restrict the way in which we are permitted to market the product.

Due to legal and factual uncertainties regarding the scope and protection afforded by patents and other proprietary rights, we may not have meaningful protection from competition.

Our long-term success will substantially depend upon our ability to protect our proprietary technologies from infringement, misappropriation, discovery and duplication and avoid infringing the proprietary rights of others. Our patent rights and the patent rights of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies in general, are highly uncertain and include complex legal and factual issues. Because of this, our pending patent applications may not be granted. These uncertainties also mean that any patents that we own or will obtain in the future could be subject to challenge, and even if not challenged, may not provide us with meaningful protection from competition. Due to our financial uncertainties, we may not possess the financial resources necessary to enforce our patents. Patents already issued to us or our pending applications may become subject to dispute, and any dispute could be resolved against us.

Because a substantial number of patents have been issued in the field of alternative drug delivery and because patent positions can be highly uncertain and frequently involve complex legal and factual questions, the breadth of claims obtained in any application or the enforceability of our patents cannot be predicted. Consequently, we do not know whether any of our pending or future patent applications will result in the issuance of patents or, to the extent patents have been issued or will be issued, whether these patents will be subject to further proceedings limiting their scope, will provide significant proprietary protection or competitive advantage, or will be circumvented, invalidated or expire.

Also because of these legal and factual uncertainties, and because pending patent applications are held in secrecy for varying periods in the United States and other countries, even after reasonable investigation we may not know with certainty whether any products that we (or a licensee) may develop will infringe upon any patent or other intellectual property right of a third party. For example, we are aware of certain patents owned by third parties that such parties could attempt to use in the future in efforts to affect our freedom to practice some of the patents that we own or have applied for. Based upon the science and scope of these third-party patents, we believe that the patents that we own or have applied for do not infringe any such third-party patents; however, we cannot know for certain whether we could successfully defend our position, if challenged. We may incur substantial costs if we are required to defend our intellectual property in patent suits brought by third parties. These legal actions could seek damages and seek to enjoin testing, manufacturing and marketing of the accused product or process. In addition to potential liability for significant damages, we could be required to obtain a license to continue to manufacture or market the accused product or process.

Risks Related to Marketing of Our Potential Products

We may not become, or stay, profitable even if our pharmaceutical products are approved for sale.

Even if we obtain regulatory approval to market our oral insulin product outside of Ecuador, India, Lebanon and Algeria or to market any other prescription pharmaceutical product candidate, many factors may prevent the product from ever being sold in commercial quantities. Some of these factors are beyond our control, such as:

We will not receive significant revenues from Generex Oral-lyn™ or any of our other pharmaceuticals products that may receive regulatory approval until we can successfully manufacture, market and distribute them in the relevant markets.

We have to depend upon others for marketing and distribution of our products, and we may be forced to enter into contracts limiting the benefits we may receive and the control we have over our products. We intend to rely on collaborative arrangements with one or more other companies that possess strong marketing and distribution resources to perform these functions for us. We may not be able to enter into beneficial contracts, and we may be forced to enter into contracts for the marketing and distribution of our products that substantially limit the potential benefits to us from commercializing these products. In addition, we will not have the same control over marketing and distribution that we would have if we conducted these functions ourselves.

We may not be able to compete with treatments now being marketed and developed, or which may be developed and marketed in the future by other companies.

Our products will compete with existing and new therapies and treatments. We are aware of a number of companies currently seeking to develop alternative means of delivering insulin, as well as new drugs intended to replace insulin therapy at least in part. We are also aware of a number of companies currently seeking to develop alternative means of enhancing and suppressing peptides. In the longer term, we also face competition from companies that seek to develop cures for diabetes and other malignant, infectious, autoimmune and allergic diseases through techniques for correcting the genetic deficiencies that underlie some of these diseases.

Numerous pharmaceutical, biotechnology and drug delivery companies, hospitals, research organizations, individual scientists and nonprofit organizations are engaged in the development of alternatives to our technologies. Some of these companies have greater research and development capabilities, experience, manufacturing, marketing, financial and managerial resources than we do. Collaborations or mergers between large pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies with competing drug delivery technologies could enhance our competitors’ financial, marketing and other resources. Developments by other drug delivery companies could make our products or technologies uncompetitive or obsolete. Accordingly, our competitors may succeed in developing competing technologies, obtaining FDA approval for products or gaining market acceptance more rapidly than we can.

Some of our most significant competitors, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, and Novo Nordisk, have discontinued development and/or sale of their inhalable forms of insulin. Unlike inhaled insulin formulations, Generex Oral-lyn™ is a buccally absorbed formulation with no residual pulmonary deposition.

If government programs and insurance companies do not agree to pay for or reimburse patients for our pharmaceutical products, our success will be impacted.

Sales of our oral insulin formulation in Ecuador, Lebanon, Algeria and India and our other potential pharmaceutical products in other markets will depend in part on the availability of reimbursement by third-party payers such as government health administration authorities, private health insurers and other organizations. Third-party payers often challenge the price and cost-effectiveness of medical products and services. Governmental approval of health care products does not guarantee that these third-party payers will pay for the products. Even if third-party payers do accept our product, the amounts they pay may not be adequate to enable us to realize a profit. Legislation and regulations affecting the pricing of pharmaceuticals may change before our products are approved for marketing and any such changes could further limit reimbursement.

Risks Related to Potential Liabilities

We face significant product liability risks, which may have a negative effect on our financial condition.

The administration of drugs or treatments to humans, whether in clinical trials or commercially, can result in product liability claims whether or not the drugs or treatments are actually at fault for causing an injury. Furthermore, our pharmaceutical products may cause, or may appear to have caused, serious adverse side effects (including death) or potentially dangerous drug interactions that we may not learn about or understand fully until the drug or treatment has been administered to patients for some time. Product liability claims can be expensive to defend and may result in large judgments or settlements against us, which could have a severe negative effect on our financial condition. We maintain product liability insurance in amounts we believe to be commercially reasonable for our current level of activity and exposure, but claims could exceed our coverage limits. Furthermore, due to factors in the insurance market generally and our own experience, we may not always be able to purchase sufficient insurance at an affordable price. Even if a product liability claim is not successful, the adverse publicity and time and expense of defending such a claim may interfere with our business.

Risks Related to the Market for Our Common Stock

Our stock price is below $5.00 per share and is treated as a “penny stock”, which places restrictions on broker-dealers recommending the stock for purchase.

Our common stock is defined as “penny stock” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to as the Exchange Act, and the rules promulgated thereunder. The SEC has adopted regulations that define “penny stock” to include common stock that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules include the following requirements:

Additional sales practice requirements are imposed on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. If our common stock remains subject to these penny stock rules these disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our stock, which could affect a shareholder’s ability to sell their shares.

The price of our common stock may be affected by a limited trading volume, may fluctuate significantly and may not reflect the actual value of our business.

There may be a limited public market for our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board market, and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will continue. An absence of an active trading market could adversely affect our stockholders’ ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations that could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors, such as our sale of securities in connection with capital raising activities, could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. Thus, the price at which shares of our common stock may trade from time to time may not reflect the actual value of our business or the actual value of our common stock.

From time to time, we may hire companies to assist us in pursuing investor relations strategies to generate increased volumes of investment in our common stock. Such activities may result, among other things, in causing the price of our common stock to increase on a short-term basis.

Furthermore, the stock market generally and the market for stocks of companies with lower market capitalizations and small biopharmaceutical companies, like us, have from time to time experienced, and likely will again experience significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of a particular company.  During the third calendar quarter of 2008 and continuing to date, we, like many other publicly traded companies, have experienced a sharp decline in the price of our stock attributable to concerns about the current global recession.  

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

If an exemption under state securities laws is not available for resales of shares of common stock, state securities regulators have the authority to seek rescission of such resales and, in some instances, may seek restitution or disgorgement of amounts received on such resales.

Because the shares of common stock registered under our registration statements have not been registered or qualified for resale under the securities laws of any state, an exemption from registration or qualification under state law is necessary for compliance with state securities laws. Generex has taken no steps to register or qualify, nor seek an exemption for, the resale of the shares of common stock under the securities laws of any state. The availability of exemptions will depend on the laws of the particular state in which a holder of the shares resides and the circumstances under which such holder seeks to sell the shares. If an exemption is not available but a resale of the shares is effected, state securities laws give state securities regulators authority to seek rescission (or cancellation) of transactions involving sales of securities that are not registered, qualified or exempted and, in some instances, authority to require restitution or disgorgement of profits from the sales of such securities and to impose statutory interest or penalties on disgorged amounts. While we are not aware of any state securities regulator taking action with respect to the resales of shares of our common stock, we cannot provide any assurance that regulators will refrain from taking such action in the future.

Provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation could delay or prevent the acquisition or sale of our business.

Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation permits our Board of Directors to designate new series of preferred stock and issue those shares without any vote or action by our stockholders. Such newly authorized and issued shares of preferred stock could contain terms that grant special voting rights to the holders of such shares that make it more difficult to obtain stockholder approval for an acquisition of our business or increase the cost of any such acquisition.

Provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law may prohibit us from making required payments with respect to our Series E 9% convertible preferred stock, which default may constitute a violation of our certificate of incorporation or a breach of our contractual obligations to the holders of our preferred stock.

We are incorporated in the State of Delaware and are subject to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Section 170 of the DGCL provides, among other things, that a Delaware corporation may declare and pay dividends upon shares of its capital stock out of its surplus, as defined in and computed in accordance with Sections 154 and 244 of the DGCL.  As of the date hereof, we have 1,225 shares of our Series E 9% convertible preferred stock outstanding. As of the date hereof, we have sufficient surplus to make dividend payments with respect to our outstanding Series E 9% convertible preferred stock, as well as sufficient surplus to make the make-whole payments that may be due to the holders of our Series E 9% convertible preferred stock, should such make-whole payments be deemed a dividend under the DGCL.  However, our surplus will decrease as we spend our capital on operational activities, unless our spending is offset by capital-raising transactions. If our surplus is less than then-due dividend payments, including make-whole payments if they are deemed a dividend under the DGCL, we will be prohibited by the DGCL from making the dividend or make-whole payment, which may constitute a violation of our certificate of incorporation or a breach of our contractual obligations to the holders of our Series E 9% convertible preferred stock. 

Our recent equity financings have and will dilute current stockholders and could prevent the acquisition or sale of our business.

The equity financing transactions into which we have recently entered have and will dilute current stockholders. At July 31, 2013, there were 238,229,939 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants that we issued in a private placement in March 2008, in the registered direct offerings conducted in June, August and September 2009, in connection with the sales to Seaside 88, LP in April, May and June 2010 and in the registered direct offerings in July 2011, February 2012, August 2012, December 2012 and June 2013. In addition, in connection with the private placement that closed on June 17, 2013, an additional 31,000,002 shares of common stock are issuable upon conversion of the remaining Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock. Together the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the above-mentioned warrants and preferred stock represent approximately 46% of the shares of common stock currently outstanding.   Assuming the holders of the warrants convert and exercise all of the warrants into shares of common stock, the number of shares of issued and outstanding common stock will increase significantly, and current stockholders will own a smaller percentage of the outstanding common stock of Generex. The issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to the warrants will also have a dilutive effect on earnings per share and may adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

In addition, the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants issued in the March 2008 private placement, the registered direct offerings in June, August and September 2009 and in connection with the sales to Seaside in April, May and June 2010, the registered direct offering in July 2011 and the private placements in February 2012, August 2012, December 2012 and June 2013, could have an anti-takeover effect because such issuance will make it more difficult for, or discourage an attempt by, a party to obtain control of Generex by tender offer or other means. The issuance of common stock upon the exercise of the warrants or conversion of convertible preferred stock will increase the number of shares entitled to vote, increase the number of votes required to approve a change of control of the company, and dilute the interest of a party attempting to obtain control of the company.

If we raise funds through one or more additional equity financings in the future, it will have a further dilutive effect on existing holders of our shares by reducing their percentage ownership. The shares may be sold at a time when the market price is low because we are in need of the funds. This will dilute existing holders more than if our stock price was higher. In addition, equity financings normally involve shares sold at a discount to the current market price. Most of our outstanding warrants have price protection provisions, which decrease the exercise price of the warrant and increase the number of shares which may be purchased upon exercise of the warrants, if we sell additional equity at an effective price per common share less than the current exercise price of the warrant. Therefore, equity financings at a low price per share will result in even more dilution to existing shareholders.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

None.

Item 2.    Properties.

Our executive and principal administrative offices occupy approximately 2,300 square feet of office space in in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada which we rent at an annual rent of approximately $80,000 under a lease that runs to September 2014.

We owned facilities in Toronto that were leased to third parties. These units are reflected in Assets Held for Investments on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. These units were sold on August 14, 2013.

We have a mortgage on our Toronto rental properties totaling $617,665 at July 31, 2013. This mortgage requires the payment of interest only prior to the due date. This mortgage currently requires approximately $6,771 in monthly debt service payments and matures on November 30, 2013. This mortgage was discharged upon the sale of the properties on August 14, 2013.

We lease approximately 4,336 square feet of office and laboratory space in Worcester, Massachusetts which we rent under a lease agreement which runs to June 30, 2015, that Antigen uses for its research and development activities at an annual rent of approximately $192,000. This space is sufficient for Antigen’s present activities.

We do not expect to need manufacturing capabilities in Canada related to our insulin product, as it is likely that we will contract out the manufacturing of product requirements for any future clinical trials and commercial sales.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Subash Chandarana et al. v. Generex Biotechnology Corporation. In February 2001, a former business associate of Pankaj Modi ("Modi") (a former officer of Generex) and an entity called Centrum Technologies Inc. ("CTI") commenced an action in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice against us and Modi seeking, among other things, damages for alleged breaches of contract and tortious acts related to a business relationship between this former associate and Modi that ceased in July 1996. The plaintiffs’ statement of claim also seeks to enjoin the use, if any, by us of three patents allegedly owned by CTI. The three patents are entitled Liquid Formulations for Proteinic Pharmaceuticals, Vaccine Delivery System for Immunization, Using Biodegradable Polymer Microspheres, and Controlled Releases of Drugs or Hormones in Biodegradable Polymer Microspheres. It is our position that the buccal drug delivery technologies which are the subject matter of our research, development, and commercialization efforts, including Generex Oral-lyn™ and the RapidMist™ Diabetes Management System, do not make use of, are not derivative of, do not infringe upon, and are entirely different from the intellectual property identified in the plaintiffs’ statement of claim. On July 20, 2001, we filed a preliminary motion to dismiss the action of CTI as a nonexistent entity or, alternatively, to stay such action on the grounds of want of authority of such entity to commence the action. The plaintiffs brought a cross motion to amend the statement of claim to substitute Centrum Biotechnologies, Inc. ("CBI") for CTI. CBI is a corporation of which 50 percent of the shares are owned by the former business associate and the remaining 50 percent are owned by us. Consequently, the shareholders of CBI are in a deadlock. The court granted our motion to dismiss the action of CTI and denied the plaintiffs’ cross motion without prejudice to the former business associate to seek leave to bring a derivative action in the name of or on behalf of CBI. The former business associate subsequently filed an application with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for an order granting him leave to file an action in the name of and on behalf of CBI against Modi and us. We opposed the application. In September 2003, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granted the request and issued an order giving the former business associate leave to file an action in the name of and on behalf of CBI against Modi and us. A statement of claim was served in July 2004. Since that time, the plaintiffs have not taken any steps in furtherance of the proceeding. We are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding.

In December 2011, a vendor commenced an action against Generex Biotechnology Corporation and its subsidiary, Generex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice claiming damages for unpaid invoices including interest in the amount of $429,000, in addition to costs and further interest. We have responded to this statement of claim and intend to defend this action vigorously. We have also asserted a counterclaim in the proceeding for $200,000 arising from the vendor’s breach of contract and detinue, together with interest and costs. On November 16, 2012, the parties agreed to settle this action and we have agreed to pay the plaintiff $125,000, following the spinout of its subsidiary Antigen, from the proceeds of any public or private financing related to Antigen subsequent to such spinout.  Each party agreed to execute mutual releases to the claim and counterclaim to be held in trust by each parties counsel until payment of the settlement amount.  Following payment to the plaintiff, the parties agree that a Consent Dismissal Order without costs will be filed with the court.  If we fail to make the payment following completion of any post-spinout financing related to Antigen or any other subsidiaries, the Plaintiffs may take out a judgment in the amount of the claim plus interest of 3% per annum and costs fixed at $25,000.

Disputes with Former Officer

In May 2011, Rose C. Perri, our former Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, commenced two proceedings against us. On May 11, 2011, Ms. Perri filed a notice of application in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, Commercial List, against Generex, two of our affiliates (1097346 Ontario, Inc. and Generex Pharmaceuticals Inc.), three of our independent directors (John P. Barratt, Nola Masterson and Brian T. McGee), our President and Chief Executive Officer (Mark A. Fletcher), our Chief Operating Officer (David Brusegard) and our Chief Financial Officer (Stephen Fellows). The application has since been abandoned.

On May 20, 2011, Ms. Perri filed a statement of claim (subsequently amended) in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, naming the following as defendants: Generex, Mr. Barratt, Ms. Masterson, Mr. McGee, and Mr. Fletcher. In this action, Ms. Perri has alleged that the defendants engaged in discrimination, harassment, bad faith and infliction of mental distress in connection with the termination of her employment with Generex. Ms. Perri is seeking damages in this action in excess of $7,000,000 for, among other things, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, violations of the Ontario Human Rights Code and aggravated and punitive damages. On September 20, 2011, the defendants filed a statement of defense and counterclaim, also naming Time Release Corp., Khazak Group Consulting Corp., and David Khazak, C.A. as defendants by counterclaim, and seeking damages of approximately $2.3 million in funds that the defendants allege Ms. Perri wrongly caused Generex to pay to third parties in varying amounts over several years and an accounting of certain third-party payments, plus interests and costs. The factual basis for the counterclaim involves payments made by Generex to third parties believed to be related to Ms. Perri. For a discussion of certain of these related party transactions, see the disclosures under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the heading “Certain Related Party Transactions” in this prospectus. We intend to defend this action and pursue our counterclaim vigorously. We are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding.

On June 1, 2011, Golden Bull Estates Ltd. filed a claim in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, naming Generex, 1097346 Ontario, Inc. and Generex Pharmaceuticals Inc. as defendants. The plaintiff, Golden Bull Estates, is controlled by Ms. Perri. The plaintiff alleges damages in the amount of $550,000 for breach of contract and $50,000 for punitive damages, plus interest and costs. The plaintiff’s claims relate to an alleged contract between the plaintiff and Generex for property management services for certain Ontario properties owned by Generex. Generex terminated the plaintiff’s property management services in April 2011. Following the close of pleadings, we served a motion for summary judgment. The plaintiff responded by amending its statement of claim to include a claim to our interest in certain of our real estate holdings. The plaintiff moved for leave to issue and register a Certificate of Pending Litigation in respect of this real estate. The motion was not successful in respect of any current real estate holdings of Generex. We are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding.

In August 2011, the estate of Antonio Perri, the late father of Ms. Perri, commenced an action against Generex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the law firm of Brans, Lehun, Baldwin LLP and William Lehun in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, claiming that the estate is entitled to the proceeds of sale (approximately $1,730,000) received by Generex on its sale of two properties to Golden Bull Estates, a company controlled by Ms. Perri. The suit alleges that no consideration was received when Generex purchased the two properties from Antonio Perri in 1998. We have responded to this statement of claim and intend to defend this action vigorously. We are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding.

We are involved in certain other legal proceedings in addition to those specifically described herein. Subject to the uncertainty inherent in all litigation, we do not believe at the present time that the resolution of any of these legal proceedings is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operations or cash flows.

With respect to all litigation matters, as additional information concerning the estimates used by us becomes known, we reassess each matter’s position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.

Overview of Business

We are engaged primarily in the research and development of drug delivery systems and technologies. Our primary focus at the present time is our proprietary technology for the administration of formulations of large molecule drugs to the oral (buccal) cavity using a hand-held aerosol applicator. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Antigen, we have expanded our focus to include immunomedicines incorporating proprietary vaccine formulations.

We believe that our buccal delivery technology is a platform technology that has application to many large molecule drugs and provides a convenient, non-invasive, accurate and cost-effective way to administer such drugs. We have identified several large molecule drugs as possible candidates for development, including estrogen, heparin, monoclonal antibodies, human growth hormone and fertility hormones, but to date have focused our development efforts primarily on one pharmaceutical product, Generex Oral-lyn™, an insulin formulation administered as a fine spray into the oral cavity using our proprietary hand-held aerosol spray applicator known as RapidMist™.

Our subsidiary, Antigen Express, concentrates on developing proprietary vaccine formulations that work by stimulating the immune system to either attack offending agents (i.e., cancer cells, bacteria, and viruses) or to stop attacking benign elements (i.e. self proteins and allergens). Our immunomedicine products are based on two platform technologies and are in the early stages of development. We continue clinical development of Antigen’s synthetic peptide vaccines designed to stimulate a potent and specific immune response against tumors expressing the HER-2/neu oncogene for patients with HER-2/neu positive breast cancer in a Phase II clinical trial and patients with prostate cancer and against avian influenza in two Phase I clinical trials. We recently initiated an additional Phase I clinical trial in patients with either breast or ovarian cancer.  The synthetic vaccine technology has certain advantages for pandemic or potentially pandemic viruses, such as the H5N1 avian and H1N1 swine flu.  In addition to developing vaccines for pandemic influenza viruses, we have vaccine development efforts underway for seasonal influenza virus, HIV, HPV, melanoma, ovarian cancer, allergy and Type I diabetes mellitus. We have established collaborations with clinical investigators at academic centers to advance these technologies.

To date, we have received regulatory approval in Ecuador, India (subject to further study), Lebanon and Algeria for the commercial marketing and sale of Generex Oral-lyn™. We have previously submitted regulatory dossiers for Generex Oral-lyn™ in a number of other countries, including Bangladesh, Kenya, Jordan and Armenia. While we believe these countries will ultimately approve our product for commercial sale, we do not anticipate recognizing revenues in any of these jurisdictions in the next twelve months. No dossier related activities or product shipments have taken place during 2013, nor are any expected to these countries during the remainder of 2013.

In March 2008, we initiated Phase III clinical trials for this product in the U.S. with the first patient screening for such trials at a clinical study site in Texas in April 2008. Approximately 450 patients have been enrolled to date at approximately 70 clinical sites around the world, including sites in the United States, Canada, Bulgaria, Poland, Romania, Russia, Ukraine and Ecuador. The final subjects completed the trial in August 2011. After appropriate validation, the data from approximately 450 patients was tabulated, reviewed and analyzed. Those results from the Phase III trial along with a comprehensive review and supplemental analyses of approximately 40 prior Oral-lyn clinical studies were compiled and submitted to the FDA in late December 2011 in a comprehensive package including a composite metanalysis of all safety data. Following notification of the completion of their review, we will schedule a meeting with the FDA to arrive at a consensus for the pathway for regulatory approval, including any additional clinical or pharmacological studies that might be required to support regulatory approval or enhance marketing success.

We are a development stage company. From inception through July 31, 2012, we have received only limited revenues from operations. We did not generate any revenue in fiscal 2013. In the fiscal years ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, we generated $28,651 and $291,628 in revenue, respectively. The revenue in each of these fiscal years pertained primarily to the sale of our consumer/over-the-counter products. These numbers do not reflect deferred sales to customers during the respective periods with the right of return.

As of July 31, 2013, our current cash position is not sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next twelve months. To continue operations, we will require additional funds to support our working capital requirements and any development activities, or will need to suspend operations. To continue operations, we will require additional funds to support our working capital requirements and any development activities, or will need to suspend operations. We are seeking various alternatives to ensure that we can meet some of our operating cash flow requirements through financing activities, such as private placement of our common stock, preferred stock offerings and offerings of debt and convertible debt instruments as well as through merger or acquisition opportunities. In addition, we are actively seeking strategic alternatives, including strategic investments and divestitures. We have sold, and are also seeking further sales of, non-essential real estate assets which are classified as Assets Held for Investment to augment its cash position. We cannot provide any assurance that we will obtain the required funding. Our inability to obtain required funding in the near future or our inability to obtain funding on favorable terms will have a material adverse effect on our operations and our strategic development plan for future growth. If we cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement our strategic development plan, our liquidity, financial condition and business prospects will be materially and adversely affected and we may have to cease operations.

We operate in only one segment: the research and development of drug delivery systems and technologies for metabolic and immunological diseases.

Accounting for Research and Development Projects

Our major research and development projects are the refinement of our platform buccal delivery technology, our buccal insulin project (Generex Oral-lyn™) and Antigen’s peptide immunotherapeutic vaccines.

During the fiscal years ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, we expended resources on the clinical testing of our buccal insulin product, Generex Oral-lyn™. The completion of late-stage trials in Canada and the United States may require significantly greater funds than we currently have on hand.

During the fiscal years ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, we expended resources on research and development relating to Antigen’s peptide immunotherapeutic vaccines and related technologies. One Antigen vaccine is currently in Phase II clinical trials in the United States involving patients with HER-2/neu positive breast cancer, and we have completed a Phase I clinical trial for an Antigen vaccine for H5N1 avian influenza which was conducted at the Lebanese-Canadian Hospital in Beirut. Antigen’s prostate cancer vaccine based on AE37 has been tested in a completed (August 2009) Phase I clinical trial in Greece.

Because of various uncertainties, we cannot predict the timing of completion and commercialization of our buccal insulin or Antigen’s peptide immunotherapeutic vaccines or related technologies. These uncertainties include the success of current studies, our ability to obtain the required financing and the time required to obtain regulatory approval even if our research and development efforts are completed and successful, our ability to enter into collaborative marketing and distribution agreements with third-parties, and the success of such marketing and distribution arrangements. For the same reasons, we cannot predict when any products may begin to produce net cash inflows.

Most of our buccal delivery research and development activities to date have involved developing our platform technology for use with insulin. As a result, we have not made significant distinctions in the accounting for research and development expenses among products, as a significant portion of all research has involved improvements to the platform technology in connection with insulin, which may benefit all of our potential buccal products. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, approximately 24% of our $2,192,724 in research and development expenses was attributable to insulin and platform technology development.  During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, approximately 61% of our $4,987,236 in research expenses was attributable to insulin and platform technology development, and we did not have any research expenses related to other buccal projects. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011, approximately 75% or $7,669,139 of our $10,250,397 in research expenses was attributable to insulin and platform technology development, and we did not have any research expenses related to other buccal projects.

During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, approximately 76%, or $1,658,731 of our research and development expenses was attributable to Antigen's immunomedicine products. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, approximately 39% or $1,941,774 in research expenses was attributable to Antigen's immunomedicine products. Approximately 25% or $2,581,258 of our research and development expenses for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011 was related to Antigen's immunomedicine products. Because these products are in initial phases of clinical trials or early, pre-clinical stage of development (with the exception of the Phase II clinical trials of Antigen HER-2/neu positive breast cancer vaccine that are underway), all of the expenses were accounted for as basic research and no distinctions were made as to particular products. Due to the early stage of development, we cannot predict the timing of completion of any products arising from this technology, or when products from this technology might begin producing revenues.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. It requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

We consider certain accounting policies related to impairment of long-lived assets, intangible assets and accrued liabilities to be critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations:

Going Concern.  As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we have not been profitable and have reported recurring losses from operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue to operate in the normal course of business.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Revenue Recognition. Net sales of our over-the-counter consumer products are generally recognized in the period in which the products are delivered. Delivery of the products generally completes the criteria for revenue recognition for us. In the event where the customers have the right of return, sales are deferred until the right of return lapses, the product is sold to a third party or a provision for returns can be reasonably estimated based on historical experience.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Management reviews for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of property and equipment may not be recoverable under the provisions of accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets. If it is determined that an impairment loss has occurred based upon expected future cash flows, the loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of July 31, 2013, there were no indications of any impairment of our long-lived assets.

Intangible Assets. We have intangible assets related to patents. The determination of the related estimated useful lives and whether or not these assets are impaired involves significant judgments. In assessing the recoverability of these intangible assets, we use an estimate of undiscounted operating income and related cash flows over the remaining useful life, market conditions and other factors to determine the recoverability of the asset. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges against these assets. In the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, we recorded a write down of $440,780 on certain patents. There were no patent write downs or disposals in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2013 or 2011.

Estimating accrued liabilities, specifically litigation accruals. Management's current estimated range of liabilities related to pending litigation is based on management's best estimate of future costs. While the final resolution of the litigation could result in amounts different than current accruals, and therefore have an impact on our consolidated financial results in a future reporting period, management believes the ultimate outcome will not have a significant effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Share-based compensation. Management determines value of stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Management determines value of stock-based compensation to non-employees and consultants in accordance with and ASC 505, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.

Derivative warrant liability.  FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires all derivatives to be recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  As a result, certain derivative warrant liabilities (namely those with a price protection feature) are now separately valued as of August 1, 2009 and accounted for on our balance sheet, with any changes in fair value recorded in earnings.  On our consolidated balance sheets as of July 31, 2013, July 31, 2012 and July 31, 2011, we used the binomial lattice model to estimate the fair value of these warrants. Key assumptions of the binomial lattice option-pricing model include the market price of our stock, the exercise price of the warrants, applicable volatility rates, risk-free interest rates, expected dividends and the instrument’s remaining term.  These assumptions require significant management judgment.  In addition, changes in any of these variables during a period can result in material changes in the fair value (and resultant gains or losses) of this derivative instrument.

Results of Operations

Year Ended July 31, 2013 Compared to Year Ended July 31, 2012

Our net loss available to shareholders for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013 (fiscal 2013) was $10,276,796 versus $9,867,024 in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012 (fiscal 2012). The increase in net loss in fiscal 2013 versus fiscal 2012 is primarily due a larger loss on the revaluation of derivatives, a larger preferred stock dividend and a smaller gain on sale of assets, offset by a decrease in operating expenses by approximately $3.9 million in fiscal 2013. Our operating loss for fiscal 2012 decreased to $6,129,359 compared to $10,024,048 in fiscal 2012. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in research and development expenses to $2,192,724 from $4,987,236, a decrease in selling expense to zero from $165,175 and a decrease in general and administrative expenses to $3,936,635 from $4,889,179. Revenue decreased to zero from $28,651 from. The decrease in revenue is attributable to the discontinuation of sales of our consumer/over-the-counter products in early fiscal 2012.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily related to a decrease in legal and audit expenses of approximately $214,000 in fiscal 2013 versus 2012 due to cost cutting measures, as well as a decrease of approximately $401,000 in payroll related costs due to a reduction in the number of employees which also caused a reduction in travel and office expenses of approximately $84,000 and $151,000, respectively versus fiscal 2012.  The decrease in selling expenses to zero from $165,175 for fiscal 2013 versus fiscal 2012 is associated with the elimination in advertising and promotion related to the discontinuation of our consumer/over-the-counter product line. Research and development expenses decreased by almost $2.8 million in fiscal 2013 from fiscal 2012, as we did not have any expenditures relating to the Phase III trials for our Generex Oral-lyn™ product in fiscal 2013.

Our interest expense in fiscal 2013 decreased to $530,222, compared to interest expense of $592,525 in fiscal 2012, due to lower mortgage balances in fiscal 2013 because of the discharge and partial discharge of mortgages upon sale of properties, as well as lower interest penalties related to the discharge of mortgages upon the sale of certain of our properties versus fiscal 2012.  We received lower income from assets held for investment (net of expense) in fiscal 2013 of $1,245,165 (which included a $1,081,807 gain on sale of properties) versus $2,206,216 (which included a $1,957,089 gain on sale of properties) in fiscal 2012. In fiscal 2013, we had a larger loss on the revaluation of derivatives of $3,140,259 versus a loss of $1,081,440 in fiscal 2012.

Our net loss available to shareholders was increased by $1,722,474 in fiscal 2013 versus $376,746 in fiscal 2012 relating to preferred stock dividends as a result of the accounting treatment of our convertible preferred stock financings in June 2013, August 2012 and February 2012, respectively. This amount represents a deemed dividend to the investors as a result of these financings, as further described in Note 9 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Year Ended July 31, 2012 Compared to Year Ended July 31, 2011

Our net loss available to shareholders for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012 (fiscal 2012) was $9,867,024 versus $22,442,284 in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011 (fiscal 2011). The decrease in net loss in fiscal 2012 versus fiscal 2011 is primarily due to the decrease in operating expenses by approximately $14.6 million in fiscal 2012, offset by a loss due to the revaluation of the derivative liabilities in fiscal 2012 of $1,081,440 versus a gain of $2,220,916 in fiscal 2011. Our operating loss for fiscal 2012 decreased to $10,024,048 compared to $24,533,082 in fiscal 2011. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in research and development expenses to $4,987,236 from $10,250,397, a decrease in selling expense to $165,175 from $1,025,774 and a decrease in general and administrative expenses to $4,889,179 from $13,392,920. Revenue decreased to $28,651 from $291,628, while gross profits decreased to $17,542 from $136,009. The decrease in revenue and gross profit is attributable to the discontinuation of sales of our consumer/over-the-counter products.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily related to a decrease in professional expenses including legal, audit, consulting and financial services of over $6.1 million in fiscal 2012 versus 2011 due to cost cutting measures, as well as a decrease of over $1.0 million in payroll related costs due to a reduction in the number of employees which also caused a reduction in travel expenses of over $450,000 versus fiscal 2011.  The decrease in selling expenses of over $860,000 for fiscal 2012 versus fiscal 2011 is associated with a reduction in advertising and promotion related to the discontinuation of our consumer/over-the-counter products, as well as the closure of our MENA sales office in Dubai. Research and development expenses decreased by almost $5.3 million in fiscal 2012 from fiscal 2011, as expenditures relating to the Phase III trials for our Generex Oral-lyn™ product decreased significantly in fiscal 2012 versus fiscal 2011.

Our interest expense in fiscal 2012 increased to $592,525, compared to interest expense of $208,906 in fiscal 2011, due to the refinancing of properties, as well as interest penalties related to the discharge of mortgages upon the sale of certain of our properties.  Our interest income decreased to $1,519 in fiscal 2012 from $6,455 in fiscal 2011 due to lower average cash balances. We received higher income from assets held for investment (net of expense) of $2,206,216 which included $1,957,089 gain on sale of properties, as well as income from rental operations (net of expense) of $249,127 versus $349,458 in income from rental operations (net of expense) in fiscal 2011.

Our net loss available to shareholders was increased by $376,746 in fiscal 2012 versus $766,417 in fiscal 2011 relating to preferred stock dividends as a result of the accounting treatment of our convertible preferred stock financings in February 2012 and July 2011, respectively. This amount represents a deemed dividend to the investors as a result of these financings, as further described in Note 9 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Resources

Sources of Liquidity

To date we have financed our development stage activities primarily through private placements of our common stock and securities convertible into our common stock.

As of July 31, 2013, our current cash position is not sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next twelve months. Therefore, we will require additional funds to support our working capital requirements and any development or other activities, or will need to curtail our clinical trials and other planned activities or suspend operations. To continue operations, we will require additional funds to support our working capital requirements and any development activities, or will need to suspend operations. We are seeking various alternatives to ensure that we can meet some of our operating cash flow requirements through financing activities, such as private placement of our common stock, preferred stock offerings and offerings of debt and convertible debt instruments as well as through merger or acquisition opportunities. In addition, we are actively seeking strategic alternatives, including strategic investments and divestitures. We have sold, and are also seeking further sales of, non-essential real estate assets which are classified as Assets Held for Investment to augment its cash position. We cannot provide any assurance that we will obtain the required funding. Our inability to obtain required funding in the near future or our inability to obtain funding on favorable terms will have a material adverse effect on our operations and our strategic development plan for future growth. If we cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement our strategic development plan, our liquidity, financial condition and business prospects will be materially and adversely affected and we may have to cease operations.

While we have financed our development stage activities to date primarily through private placements of our common stock and securities convertible into our common stock and raised approximately $4.0 million during fiscal 2012 (including the net proceeds from mortgage financings in January and February 2012) and approximately $5.3 million during fiscal 2013 to date (including the proceeds from our mortgage financing in November 2012 and proceeds from warrant exercises), our cash balances have been extremely low throughout fiscal 2013.

On March 30, 2011, our realigned management team announced its strategic development plan for Generex’s future growth. The plan included the spin-out of Antigen Express, a reverse stock split for Generex and a rights offering to Generex stockholders. As proposed, we would spin out Antigen Express as a separate DTC-eligible company, register its shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and seek to list its shares on a national securities exchange. Management believes that the spin-out would increase value for stockholders and provide Antigen Express with ready access to capital markets to finance its on-going clinical and regulatory initiatives. Management further believes that the spin-out would benefit Generex, by allowing Generex to hold a controlling interest in a publicly-traded company while continuing to focus on maximizing opportunities for its buccal drug delivery platform. The spin-out would be accomplished by the issuance of one or more dividends of Antigen Express stock to Generex stockholders. No determination has been made as to the timing of the proposed spin-out. This prospectus does not constitute an offer of any securities for sale or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities related to these planned transactions.

Although stockholders approved a reverse stock split proposal at the June 8, 2011 annual meeting of stockholders, the reverse stock split could only be implemented in conjunction with an effort to list our common stock on a national stock exchange. The stockholder approval expired on December 7, 2012. Our stockholders approved a new reverse split proposal at our annual general meeting held on March 28, 2013, which approval allows the Board to implement a reverse split in its discretion and is not contingent upon listing our common stock on a national stock exchange. The terms of the securities purchase agreements that we entered into on January 31, 2012, August 8, 2012, December 10, 2012 and June 17, 2013 also prohibit us from undertaking a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification of our common stock except for a reverse stock split made in conjunction with a listing of the common stock on a national securities exchange.

Management may seek to meet all or some of our operating cash flow requirements through financing activities, such as private placement of our common stock, preferred stock offerings and offerings of debt and convertible debt instruments as well as through merger or acquisition opportunities. The securities purchase agreements that we entered into on December 10, 2012 and June 17, 2013 with certain investors prohibits us from (i) issuing additional equity securities until 60 days after the effective date of a registration statement covering the resale of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and conversion of the preferred stock sold in that transaction and (ii) issuing additional debt or equity securities with a variable conversion or exercise price until December 10, 2013 and June 17, 2014, respectively.

Through the shelf registration statement (File No. 333-164591) that we filed on January 29, 2010 and which was declared effective on February 9, 2010, we raised an aggregate of $4,056,000 in gross proceeds between January and April 2011 and raised an additional $2,575,000 in gross proceeds in July 2011 pursuant to a convertible preferred stock purchase agreement with takedowns from the shelf registration statement as described below. Upon the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K on October 14, 2011, we were no longer eligible to use the shelf registration statement as the aggregate market value of our outstanding voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates is less than $75 million. As we were required under the registration rights agreement that we entered into on June 17, 2013 with certain investors to register shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of the securities purchased by the investors, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 because we were not eligible to use Form S-3. The registration statement was declared effective on July 24, 2013. We incurred additional legal and accounting fees in connection with the preparation of this Form S-1 registration statement.

In addition, management is actively pursuing financial and strategic alternatives, including strategic investments and divestitures, industry collaboration activities, and potential strategic partners. Management has sold, and is also seeking further sales of, non-essential real estate assets which are classified as Assets Held for Investment to augment its cash position.

We believe that the successful commercial launch of Oral-lyn™ in countries where we have approval would enhance our ability to access additional sources of funding.  We will continue to require substantial funds to continue research and development, including preclinical studies and clinical trials of our product candidates, further clinical trials for Oral-lyn™ and to commence sales and marketing efforts if the FDA or other regulatory approvals are obtained.  

Unforeseen problems with the conduct or results of Phase III clinical trials for Oral-lyn™ or further negative developments in general economic conditions could interfere with our ability to raise additional capital as needed, or materially adversely affect the terms upon which such capital is available.  We cannot provide any assurance that we will obtain the required funding. Our inability to obtain required funding in the near future or our inability to obtain funding on favorable terms will have a material adverse effect on our operations and our strategic development plan for future growth. If we cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement our strategic development plan, our liquidity, financial condition and business prospects will be materially and adversely affected and we may have to cease operations.

Equity Financings

Following is a summary of the equity financing activities that we completed in fiscal 2013 to date in August 2012, December 2012 and June 2013.

Financing – August 2012

Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants

On August 8, 2012, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 750 shares of our newly designated non-voting Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 100% of the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock. The purchase closed on August 10, 2012. We sold the convertible preferred stock and warrants in units, with each unit consisting of one share of convertible preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 100% of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of such share of convertible preferred stock. Each unit was sold at a negotiated price of $1,000, for an aggregate purchase price of $750,000. An aggregate of 18,750,000 shares of our common stock are issuable upon conversion of, or exercise of, the convertible preferred stock and warrants (which total was adjusted to 49,999,998 shares on December 10, 2012 in conjunction with our Series D convertible preferred stock financing). We received net proceeds of approximately $725,000 from this transaction, which was reflected in the financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2012. We entered into this securities purchase agreement pursuant to the investors’ additional investment rights existing under the securities purchase agreement dated July 8 2011.

Subject to certain ownership limitations, the Series C convertible preferred stock will be convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of our common stock at an effective conversion price of $0.08 (adjusted to $0.03 per share on December 10, 2012) per share, and will accrue a 9% dividend until August 10, 2015 and, beginning on August 10, 2015 and on each one year anniversary thereafter, such dividend rate will increase by an additional 3%. The dividend will be payable quarterly on September 30, December 31, March 31 and June 30, beginning on the first such date after the original issue date and on each conversion date in cash, or at our option, in shares of common stock. In the event that the convertible preferred stock is converted prior to August 10, 2015, we will pay the holder of the converted preferred stock an amount equal to $270 per $1,000 of stated value of the convertible preferred stock, less the amount of all prior quarterly dividends paid on such converted preferred stock before the relevant conversion date. Such “make-whole payment” may be made in cash or, at our option, in shares of our common stock. In addition, beginning August 10, 2015, we will pay dividends on shares of preferred stock equal to (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) and in the same form as dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) actually paid on shares of the common stock when, as and if such dividends are paid. We will incur a late fee of 18% per annum on unpaid dividends.

The conversion price of the Series C convertible preferred stock will be subject to adjustment in the case of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. The conversion price will also be adjusted if we sell or grant any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then conversion price, except in the event of certain exempt issuances. In addition, the holders of convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by us pro rata to the holders of our common stock to the same extent as if such holders had converted all of their shares of convertible preferred stock. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations, the holders of convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive, upon conversion of their shares, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of our common stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction.

We may become obligated to redeem the Series C convertible preferred stock in cash upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, including, material breach of certain contractual obligations to the holders of the convertible preferred stock, the occurrence of a change in control of Generex, the occurrence of certain insolvency events relating to Generex, or the failure of our common stock to continue to be listed or quoted for trading on one or more specified United States securities exchanges or regulated quotation service. Upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, each holder of convertible preferred stock will have the option to redeem such holder’s shares of convertible preferred stock for a redemption price payable in shares of common stock or receive an increased dividend rate of 18% on all of such holder’s outstanding convertible preferred stock. Late fees will apply on all redemption amounts not paid within five trading days of the payment date.

Subject to certain ownership limitations, the warrants will be exercisable at any time after their date of issuance and on or before the fifth-year anniversary thereafter at an exercise price of $0.08 (adjusted to $0.03 per share on December 10, 2012) per share of common stock. The exercise price of the warrants and, in some cases, the number of shares issuable upon exercise, are subject to adjustment in the case of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise will also be adjusted if we sell or grant any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then exercise price, except in the event of certain exempt issuances. In addition, the warrant holders will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by us pro rata to the holders of our common stock to the same extent as if such holders had exercised all of their warrants. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations, the warrant holders will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of their warrants, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of common stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction.

The securities purchase agreement and the certificate of designation authorizing the Series C convertible preferred stock include certain agreements and covenants for the benefit of the holders of the convertible preferred stock, including restrictions on our ability to amend the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, pay cash dividends or distributions with respect to our common stock or other junior securities, repurchase more than a de minimis number of shares of our common stock or other junior securities.

With very limited exceptions, the investors will have a pro rata right of first refusal in respect of participation in any private debt or equity financings undertaken by us during the 12 months following the closing of the transaction.

We offered these securities privately pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. We entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the public resale of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock, issuable as dividends on the preferred stock, issuable upon exercise of the warrants and issued as a finders’ fee. We agreed to file the registration statement by September 22 and to use our best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 120 days after closing. If these deadlines were not met, we would have been liable for liquidated damages up to 6% of the purchase price under the securities purchase agreement. The registration statement was declared effective on November 8, 2012.

In addition, if, during the nine-month period after the issuance of the warrants and continuing until such time that all of the securities may be sold without our meeting the current public information requirement under Securities Act rule 144(c)(1), we fail to meet such requirement, we will pay liquidate damages equal to 2.0% of the purchase price paid by each investor, payable in cash every 30 days until current public information for Generex is available or is no longer required for the investors to rely on Rule 144 to transfer the securities (including underlying securities) acquired under the securities purchase agreement.

As of September 30, 2013, all of the issued Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted to common stock. There were 22,916,665 shares of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Series C convertible preferred stock and 6,664,863 shares of common stock issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions. As of September 30, 2013, 16,389,512 warrants issued in connection with this transaction were outstanding as follows:

*Upon issuance of securities at a price per share of common stock less than the then applicable exercise price, the warrants are subject to anti-dilution adjustment of the exercise price and to the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each warrant such that the aggregate exercise price payable upon exercise of the warrant will be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. Due to the anti-dilution adjustment provision of these warrants, they have been reclassified on Generex’s balance sheet as a liability under the caption “Derivative Warrant Liability” with any changes in fair value at each reporting period recorded in earnings in accordance with ASC 815. On December 10, 2012, in connection with the financing below, the exercise price was adjusted from $0.08 to $0.03 per share and the number of warrants increased from 9,375,000 to 24,999,999.

Proceeds from Warrant Exercises

We may receive additional proceeds from the exercise of warrants issued in the registered direct offerings conducted in June, August and September 2009, the sales to Seaside 88, LP in April, May and June 2010 and the warrants issued in July 2011, February 2012, August 2012 and December 2012 in connection with the issuance of the Series A 9% Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B 9% Convertible Preferred Stock, Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock, Series D 9% Convertible Preferred Stock and Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock, although some of the warrants include a cashless exercise feature.

*Upon issuance of securities at a price per share of common stock less than the then applicable exercise price, the warrants are subject to anti-dilution adjustment of the exercise price and to the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each warrant such that the aggregate exercise price payable upon exercise of the warrant will be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. Due to the anti-dilution adjustment provision of these warrants, they have been reclassified on Generex’s balance sheet as a liability under the caption “Derivative Warrant Liability” with any changes in fair value at each reporting period recorded in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

In addition, we may receive additional proceeds from the exercise of warrants issued in connection with the securities purchase agreement and related documents that we entered into on March 31, 2008 with existing institutional investors relating to a private placement of 8% secured convertible notes (the “Notes”) and warrants (the “Series Warrants”) for aggregate gross proceeds to us of $20,650,000.  As of June 1, 2009, the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest on the Notes were satisfied in full.

The Series Warrants issued in connection with the March 2008 securities purchase agreement included:

The initial exercise price of each Series Warrant was $1.21.  The Series Warrants include a cashless exercise feature. The exercise price of the Series Warrants was subsequently reduced initially to $0.50, then to $0.33, to $0.25, to $0.15, to $0.08 and currently to $0.03 as a result of a price protection provision triggered by our offering of stock in private placements in May 2009, January and July 2011 and February, August 2012 and December 2012.  This price protection feature allows for the reduction in the exercise price of the Series Warrants in the event we subsequently issue common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, such as options and warrants, at a price per share less than the Series Warrant exercise price then in effect. In addition, with any reduction to the Series Warrant exercise price, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each Series Warrant will be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Series Warrant exercise price payable for the adjusted number of shares issuable upon exercise will be the same as the aggregate Series Warrant exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. We account for these warrants with price protection in accordance with ASC 815 as described in Note 10 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

As of September 30, 2013, outstanding Series Warrants were as follows (after adjustment for anti-dilution provisions and subsequent exercises):

*Upon issuance of securities at a price per share of common stock less than the then applicable exercise price, the warrants are subject to anti-dilution adjustment of the exercise price and to the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each warrant such that the aggregate exercise price payable upon exercise of the warrant will be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. Due to the anti-dilution adjustment provision of these warrants, they have been reclassified on Generex’s balance sheet as a liability under the caption “Derivative Warrant Liability” with any changes in fair value at each reporting period recorded in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

Cash Flows for the Year Ended July 31, 2013

For the fiscal 2013 year, we used $3,661,234 in cash to fund our operating activities. The use for operating activities included a net loss of $8,554,322. Cash used in operating activities decreased due to a decrease in deferred revenue of $38,282, offset by an increase of $123,556 related to accounts payable and accrued expenses and a $124,197 decrease in other current assets.

The use of cash related to operating assets and liabilities above was offset by increases related to a non-cash loss of $3,140,259 related to the revaluation of the derivative warrants and additional investment rights, $463,718 related to depreciation and amortization, $837,754 in stock-based compensation, amortization of options and option modifications related to employees, executives and directors, $392,421 in stock-based compensation for services rendered and $886,950 relating to interest which was paid by issuances of common stock. These non-cash increase adjustments to reconcile the net loss to net cash used were offset by a non-cash gain of $1,037,485 related to gains on disposals of properties (including Assets Held for Investment) and equipment.

We had net cash flows from investing activities of $1,685,060 in fiscal 2013, primarily consisting of proceeds from the sale of properties (including Assets Held for Investment) and equipment of $1,764,008, offset by costs incurred for patents of $78,948.

We had net cash flows from financing activities of $3,461,158 in fiscal 2013. We received net proceeds of $2,615,000 from issuances of convertible preferred stock in our August 2012 and June 2013 registered direct offerings.  We received $829,038 in net proceeds from issuance of long-term debt related to mortgages on our properties, which was offset by monthly mortgage principal payments combined with repayments of mortgages upon the sales of certain of the properties of $1,833,265. We received $5,181 in cash proceeds from exercises of stock options and $1,845,204 from the exercise of warrants.

Our net working capital deficiency at July 31, 2013 decreased to a deficiency of $6,696,473 from a deficiency of $8,054,662 at July 31, 2012, which was attributed largely to our fiscal 2013 investing and financing activities, offset by our net cash outflows from our operating activities.

Conversion of Outstanding Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock

All outstanding shares of our Series A 9% Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into shares of our common stock prior to the end of our previous fiscal year ended July 31, 2012. A total of 17,166,666 shares of common stock have been issued upon the conversion of 2,575 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock. Upon conversion, we paid the holders of the Series A convertible preferred stock a “make whole” payment equal to $270 per $1,000 of stated value of the Series A convertible preferred stock, less the amount of all prior quarterly dividends paid on such converted preferred stock before the relevant conversion date. We issued 6,129,666 additional shares of common stock on such conversions of the Series A convertible preferred stock. Dividends paid on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were $12,383 during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012.

As of July 31, 2013, all of the 2,000 shares of our Series B 9% Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of our common stock. We issued 38,520,832 shares of common stock upon the conversion of the Series B convertible preferred stock and an additional 14,819,679 shares of common stock were issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions.

As of July 31, 2013, all of the 750 shares of our Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of our common stock. We issued 22,916,665 shares of common stock upon the conversion of the Series C convertible preferred stock and an additional 6,664,863 shares of common stock were issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions.

As of July 31, 2013, all of the 750 shares of our Series D 9% Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of our common stock. We issued 24,999,999 shares of common stock upon the conversion of the Series D convertible preferred stock and an additional 7,825,191 shares of common stock were issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions.

As of July 31, 2013, 295 shares of our Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of our common stock. We issued 9,833,334 shares of common stock upon the conversion of the Series E convertible preferred stock and an additional 2,654,999 shares of common stock were issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions.

Funding Requirements

We expect to devote substantial resources to obtaining regulatory approval of Generex Oral-lyn™ in the U.S., Canada and Europe.  We may also devote resources to obtaining approval for the importation, marketing and commercialization of Generex Oral-lyn™ in other countries where we have licensed distributors, including countries where we currently have approval or have submitted regulatory dossiers for approval.

Under the long-term agreement that we signed with sanofi-aventis in December 2009, sanofi-aventis will manufacture and supply recombinant human insulin to us in the territories specified in the agreement. Through this agreement, we will procure recombinant human insulin crystals for use in the production of Generex Oral-lyn™. The terms of the supply agreement required us to make certain minimum purchases of insulin from sanofi-aventis through the period ended December 31, 2011, which minimum purchases we did not satisfy. Sanofi-aventis will be our exclusive supplier in certain countries and a non-exclusive supplier in some other countries. Sanofi-aventis may delete any territory from the agreement in which Generex Oral-lyn™ has not been approved for commercial sale by December 31, 2011. The prices under the supply agreement are subject to adjustment beginning after December 31, 2012. As we did not meet the minimum purchase requirements by December 31, 2011, sanofi-aventis may terminate the agreement. Upon termination, we would be obligated to pay sanofi-aventis for all materials and components that it has acquired or ordered to manufacture insulin based on our forecasts or minimum purchase commitments, all related work-in-progress (at cost) and all finished insulin in inventory. We did not provide any forecasts to sanofi-aventis and have not included any accruals related to the purchase commitments in our consolidated financial statements for fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, nor has sanofi-aventis terminated the agreement.

In addition to the resources that we will dedicate to regulatory approval and commercialization of Generex Oral-lyn™, we will expend resources on further clinical development of our immunotherapeutic vaccines.

Our future funding requirements and our ability to raise additional capital will depend on factors that include:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors, and we do not have any non-consolidated special purpose entities.

Contractual Obligations

The following table of contractual obligations as of July 31, 2013 includes interest obligations.

* Although there are no minimum purchase requirements for any of the remaining contract years under Generex’s supply agreement with sanofi-aventis entered into on December 7, 2009, Generex has not fully satisfied the minimum purchase requirements for the contract years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011. To the extent that Generex has any continuing long-term obligations to purchase insulin under this agreement, such obligations are not included in the table above because the quantities and prices relating to Generex’s obligations are subject to confidential treatment.

Certain Related Party Transactions

On December 9, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the grant to Ms. Perri of a right of first refusal in respect of any sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition of either or both real properties municipally known as 1740 Sismet Road, Mississauga, Ontario and 98 Stafford Drive, Brampton, Ontario (collectively, the “Properties”). We granted Ms. Perri this right in recognition of the fair market value transfer to us during the fiscal year ended July 31, 1998 by Ms. Perri (or parties related to her) of the Properties. In June 2011, we listed these real properties for sale and received third party offers for such properties which we accepted conditionally based on Ms. Perri’s existing right of first refusal. Ms. Perri exercised her right of first refusal and the sale of these real properties to Ms. Perri closed on August 26, 2011 on the same terms as the original third party offer.

Through April 20, 2011, we used a management company to manage all of our real properties. The property management company is owned by Rose Perri, Anna Gluskin and the estate of Mark Perri.  Ms. Perri and Ms. Gluskin are former executive officers of Generex.  In the nine-month period ended April 30, 2011 and the fiscal years ended July 31, 2010 and July 31, 2009, we paid the management company $40,778, $55,691 and $47,981, respectively, in management fees. We believe that the amounts paid to the management company approximate the rates that would be charged by a non-affiliated property management company.  On April 20, 2011, we formally terminated the relationship, and no further property management fees will be paid to this company.

During the period from June 2005 to November 2010, Generex paid Time Release Corp. an aggregate amount of approximately $1,030,000.  During the period from 2006 to 2008, Time Release, at the direction of Ms. Perri, made payments of at least $285,000 of the funds received from Generex to Angara Investments Limited and directed certain additional payments to Golden Bull Estates Ltd.  Angara Investments is believed to be owned and controlled by Ms. Perri and Ms. Gluskin, former executive officers and directors of Generex.  Golden Bull Estates is controlled by Ms. Perri.  The payments to Time Release were discovered following the termination of Ms. Perri and were not approved by the Board of Directors of Generex, or any committee thereof, at any time.

During the period from September 2006 through February 2010, Generex made payments in excess of $700,000 to an Ecuadorian corporation, MediExpress S.A., at the direction of Ms. Perri.  Generex also paid approximately $385,000 to the principal of MediExpress during the period from August 2004 to December 2010 at the direction of Ms. Perri.  We are aware that Ms. Perri had other business relationships with Medi-Express’ principal, and we have not been able to determine what business purpose of Generex was served by these payments

The Special Committee of independent members of the Board of Directors retained outside counsel to investigate the foregoing payments. Based on the foregoing payments and other actions of Ms. Perri discovered following her termination, Generex has filed a counterclaim to litigation commenced by Ms. Perri against Generex. See the discussion under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the heading “Legal Proceedings” and the subheading “Dispute with Former Officer” in this Annual Report.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued further guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures which requires the categorization by level for items that are only required to be disclosed at fair value and information about transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. In addition, the update provides guidance on measuring the fair value of financial instruments managed within a portfolio and the application of premiums and discounts on fair value measurements. The guidance requires additional disclosure for Level 3 measurements regarding the sensitivity of fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and any interrelationships between those inputs. The guidance was effective for our interim period ended April 30, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance regarding the presentation of Comprehensive Income within financial statements. The guidance was effective for our annual fiscal period ended July 31, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Item. 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the exchange rates between U.S. and Canadian currencies and with changes in the interest rates related to our fixed rate debt. We do not believe that any of these risks will have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

At the present time, we maintain our cash in short-term government or government guaranteed instruments, short-term commercial paper, and interest bearing bank deposits or demand bank deposits which do not earn interest. A substantial majority of these instruments and deposits are denominated in U.S. dollars, with the exception of funds denominated in Canadian dollars on deposit in Canadian banks to meet short-term operating needs in Canada. We do not presently employ any hedging or similar strategy intended to mitigate against losses that could be incurred as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates between U.S. and Canadian currencies.

As of July 31, 2013, we had fixed rate debt totaling $617,665. This amount consists of the following:

This debt instrument matures on November 30, 2013. As our fixed rate debt instruments mature, we will likely refinance such debt at the existing market interest rates which may be more or less than interest rates on the maturing debt. Since this debt is fixed rate debt, if interest rates were to increase 100 basis points prior to maturity, there would be no impact on earnings or cash flows.

We have neither issued nor own any long-term debt instruments, or any other financial instruments, for trading purposes to which we would be subject to material market risks.

We have warrants outstanding with price protection provisions that allow for the reduction in the exercise price of the warrants in the event we subsequently issue common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, such as options and warrants, at a price per share less than the warrant exercise price then in effect. In addition, with any reduction to the warrant exercise price, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each warrant will be increased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate warrant exercise price payable for the adjusted number of shares issuable upon exercise will be the same as the aggregate warrant exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. We account for the warrants with price protection in accordance with FASB ASC 815. We recognize the warrants with price protection in our consolidated balance sheet as liabilities. The warrant liability is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized currently in the consolidated statements of operations under the caption Change in fair value of derivative warrant liability. While the change in fair value of the derivative warrant liability has no effect on our cash flows, the gains or losses can have a significant impact on non-operating income and expenses and thus the net income or loss. As of July 31, 2013, there were 220,687,537 warrants outstanding subject to price protection provisions with an estimated fair value of $5,234,293 or $0.024 per warrant. If the estimated fair value of the warrants increases, there will be a corresponding non-operating expense equal to the change in the value of the liability. Likewise, if the estimated fair value of the warrants decreases, there will be a corresponding non-operating gain equal to the change in the value of the liability. There is a directly proportional relationship between the fair value of the warrants and the market price of the stock; therefore increases or decreases in the market price will lead to corresponding increases or decreases in the value of the warrant liability and result in losses or gains, respectively, on our consolidated statements of operations.

GENEREX BIOTECHNOLOGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board or Directors and Shareholders of Generex Biotechnology Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Generex Biotechnology Corp. (a Development Stage Company) and subsidiaries as of July 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficiency)/equity and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period November 2, 1995 (date of inception) to July 31, 2013. Our audit also includes the financial statement schedule listed in the index under Item 15. Generex Biotechnology Corp.’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements and the financial statement schedule listed in the index under Item 15. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements as of July 31, 2012 and for the cumulative period from November 2, 1995 (Date of Inception) through July 31, 2012 were audited by other auditors who expressed an opinion without reservation on those statements in their audit report dated October 15, 2012. Our opinion, in so far as it relates to the period from November 2, 1995 (Date of Inception) through July 31, 2012, is based solely on the report of 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. Generex Biotechnology Corp. is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Generex Biotechnology Corp.’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Generex Biotechnology Corp. as of July 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended and accumulated for the period from November 2, 1995 (Date of Inception) to July 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company’s experience of negative cash flows from operations since inception and its dependency upon future financing, which is uncertain due to the limitations imposed by previous financings on future financings, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Generex Biotechnology Corporation and Subsidiaries

(A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Generex Biotechnology Corporation (a Development Stage Company) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of July 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficiency)/equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended July 31, 2012, and for the period November 2, 1995 (date of inception) to July 31, 2012. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index under Item 15. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Generex Biotechnology Corporation and subsidiaries as of July 31, 2012 and 2011 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended July 31, 2012, and for the period November 2, 1995 (date of inception) to July 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company’s experience of negative cash flows from operations since inception and its dependency upon future financing, which is uncertain due to the limitations imposed by previous financings on future financings, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) and our report dated October 15, 2012 expressed an adverse opinion thereon.
