CELLCEUTIX CORPORATION
(A Development Stage Enterprise)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2014
(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Cellceutix Corporation have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and regulations and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2013, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013.

In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the three month periods have been made. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year. When used in these notes, the terms "Company", "we", "us" or "our" mean Cellceutix Corporation. 

Cellceutix Corporation, formerly known as EconoShare, Inc., (“Cellceutix” or the “Company”) was incorporated on August 1, 2005. On December 6, 2007, the Company acquired Cellceutix Pharma, Inc. which was incorporated in the State of Delaware on June 20, 2007, in exchange for newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the exchange, Cellceutix Pharma, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company and has no customers, products or revenues to date. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to development-stage companies as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 915 (“FASB ASC 915”). A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.

The Company’s Common Stock is quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB), symbol “CTIX”.

All amounts, where it is designated in these notes to the financial statements as an approximate amount, are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.
 
Nature of Operations

Overview

We are in the business of developing innovative small molecule therapies to treat diseases with significant medical need, particularly in the areas of cancer and inflammatory disease. Our strategy is to use our business and scientific expertise to maximize the value of our pipeline. We will do this by focusing on our lead compounds, Kevetrin, Prurisol and Brilacidin, and advancing them as quickly as possible along the regulatory pathway. We will develop the highest quality data and broadest intellectual property to support our compounds.

We currently own all development and marketing rights to our products. In order to successfully develop and market our products, we may have to partner with other companies. Prospective partners may require that we grant them significant development and/or commercialization rights in return for agreeing to share the risk of development and/or commercialization.

2. Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. For the period since June 20, 2007 (date of inception) through March 31, 2014, the Company has had a cumulative net loss attributable to common stockholders of approximately $26.6 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $4.0 million at March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has not emerged from the development stage. In view of these matters, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate additional financing. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally from the use of equity securities, debt issuance and loans from an officer to pay for its operations. The Company intends on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs largely from the issuance of debt and the sale of equity securities, until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. On October 25, 2013, we terminated a previous agreement with Aspire Capital Fund, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“Aspire Capital”), and entered into a new stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Aspire Capital.
 
The Purchase Agreement provides that upon meeting the terms of the agreement, Aspire Capital is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $20,000,000 of our shares of Class A Common Stock over the approximately 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement. In consideration for entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Aspire Capital 210,523 shares of its Class A Common Stock as a commitment fee. The commitment fee will be amortized as the funding is received. The unamortized portion is carried on the balance sheet as deferred offering costs. Concurrently with entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to file one or more registration statements as permissible and necessary under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock that have been and may be issued to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement. On November 4, 2013, the Company filed a Form S-3 registration statement and the registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on November 15, 2013.
 
These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of the recorded assets or the classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
3. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. There were no cash equivalents at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013.
 
Property, plant and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures that extend the life, increase the capacity, or improve the efficiency of property and equipment are capitalized, while expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method over the following approximate useful lives:

Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method over the following approximate useful lives:
 
Machinery and equipment 5 Years
 
Intangible Assets – Patents
 
Costs incurred to file patent applications and acquired intangibles are capitalized when the Company believes that there is a high likelihood that the patent will be issued and there will be future economic benefit associated with the patent. These costs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a 12 - 17 years life from the date of patent filing. All costs associated with abandoned patent applications are expensed. In addition, the Company will review the carrying value of patents for indicators of impairment on a periodic basis and if it determines that the carrying value is impaired, it values the patent at fair value. Costs incurred to file patent applications and acquire intangibles are expensed when the patents have failed to develop products which have gained market acceptance. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has charged to operations $107,000 and $0, respectively, for these patent application costs. For the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and from inception to March 31, 2014, the Company has charged to operations approximately $107,000, $29,000, and $305,000, respectively, for these patent application costs.

 
13

 
 
In accordance with the provisions of the applicable authoritative guidance, the Company’s long-lived assets and amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of such assets by determining whether their carrying value can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows, including its estimates of revenue driven by assumed market segment share and estimated costs. If impairment is indicated, the Company measures the amount of such impairment by comparing the fair value to the carrying value. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, no impairment expense was recorded.
 
Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair value, due to the short-term nature of these items.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.
 
Significant Estimates

These accompanying consolidated financial statements include some amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to valuation of stock grants and stock options, valuation of purchased intangibles and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. It is reasonably possible that these above-mentioned estimates and others may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant in future reporting periods.

Certain Risks and Uncertainties

Product Development

We devote significant resources to research and development programs in an effort to discover and develop potential future product candidates. The product candidates in our pipeline are at various stages of preclinical and clinical development. The path to regulatory approval includes three phases of clinical trials in which we collect data to support an application to regulatory authorities to allow us to market a product for treatment of a specified disease. There are many difficulties and uncertainties inherent in research and development of new products, resulting in a high rate of failure. To bring a drug from the discovery phase to regulatory approval, and ultimately to market, takes many years and significant cost. Failure can occur at any point in the process, including after the product is approved, based on post-market factors. New product candidates that appear promising in development may fail to reach the market or may have only limited commercial success because of efficacy or safety concerns, inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals, limited scope of approved uses, reimbursement challenges, difficulty or excessive costs of manufacture, alternative therapies or infringement of the patents or intellectual property rights of others. Uncertainties in the FDA approval process and the approval processes in other countries can result in delays in product launches and lost market opportunities. Consequently, it is very difficult to predict which products will ultimately be submitted for approval, which have the highest likelihood of obtaining approval and which will be commercially viable and generate profits. Successful results in preclinical or clinical studies may not be an accurate predictor of the ultimate safety or effectiveness of a drug or product candidate.

Expenditures for research, development, and engineering of products are expensed as incurred. In November 2010, the Company was awarded three separate U.S. government grants under the Qualifying Therapeutic Discovery Project (QTDP) program. For the period from inception to March 31, 2014, the Company has reflected approximately $733,000 of grants as a one time reduction of research and development expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred approximately $1,831,000 and $543,000 of research and development costs, net of grants respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the period from inception to March 31, 2014, the Company incurred approximately $3,417,000, $1,010,000, and $9,291,000 of research and development costs, net of grants, respectively.

 
14

 
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
All cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States. Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk.

Income Taxes
 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arise from temporary differences associated with differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as measured by the enacted tax rates, which are expected to be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current, depending upon the classification of the asset or liabilities to which they relate. Deferred tax assets and liabilities not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
The Company has generated net losses since inception and accordingly has not recorded a provision for income taxes. The deferred tax assets were primarily comprised of federal and state tax net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards. Due to uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income to realize these tax assets, a full valuation allowance has been established to offset the deferred tax assets. Additionally, the future utilization of the NOL carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership changes that could occur in the future. If necessary, the deferred tax assets will be reduced by any carryforwards that expire prior to utilization as a result of such limitations, with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance.
 
The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 "Uncertainty in Income Taxes" (ASC 740-10). The Company has not recognized a liability as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits has not been provided since there is no unrecognized benefit since the date of adoption. The Company has not recognized interest expense or penalties as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
 
The Company has identified its U.S. Federal income tax return and its State return in Massachusetts as its major tax jurisdictions. The fiscal 2011 and forward years are still open for a tax examination.
 
Basic Earnings (Loss) per Share
 
Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents consist of stock options, warrants and convertible notes payable. Common share equivalents of approximately 47.1 million and 50 million were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and have been excluded from the per share computations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, because their effect is anti-dilutive.
 
Accounting for Stock Based Compensation

The stock-based compensation expense incurred by Cellceutix for employees and directors in connection with its stock option plan is based on the employee model of ASC 718, and the fair market value of the options is measured at the grant date. Under ASC 718 employee is defined as “An individual over whom the grantor of a share-based compensation award exercises or has the right to exercise sufficient control to establish an employer-employee relationship based on common law as illustrated in case law and currently under U.S.“tax regulations”. Our consultants do not meet the employer-employee relationship as defined by the IRS and therefore are accounted for under ASC 505-50.

 
15

 
 
ASC 505-50-30-11 (previously EITF 96-18) further provides that an issuer shall measure the fair value of the equity instruments in these transactions using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of the following dates, referred to as the measurement date:

i. 
The date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached (a performance commitment); and

ii. 
The date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options on the dates of grant. Restricted stock units are measured based on the fair market values of the underlying stock on the dates of grant. We recognize stock-based compensation using the straight-line method.

The components of stock based compensation recognized in the Company’s Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and since inception are as follows(rounded to nearest thousand):

Total stock-based compensation and stock issued for financing costs and charitable contributions totaled approximately $7.7 million from inception to March 31, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update No (ASU 2014-08), “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”. ASU 2014-08 on Discontinued Operations changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modified related disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as: (i) a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale that represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results or (ii) an acquired business or nonprofit activity that is classified as held for sale on the date of acquisition. The standard states that a strategic shift could include a disposal of (i) a major geographical area of operations, (ii) a major line of business, (iii) a major equity method investment, or (iv) other major parts of an entity. Under the current US GAAP, an entity is prohibited from reporting a discontinued operation if it has certain continuing cash flows or involvement component after the disposal. The new guidance eliminates these criteria.

The Company does not expect the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.

4. Polymedix Inc. Asset Acquisition –Patent Rights and Equipment

On September 4, 2013, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets (“Purchased Assets”) of Polymedix Inc, and Polymedix Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Seller”) from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court.

The aggregate purchase price for the sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets was $2.1 million in cash, plus 1.4 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Registrable Securities”), for a total aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.8 million. These common shares were valued at $1.93 per share, based on the September 4, 2013 opening stock price as quoted on the OTB Bulletin Board, resulting in approximately $2.7 million of stock issued to acquire the Purchased Assets. The Purchased Assets Agreement also provides the Seller with the right to require the Company to redeem the Common Stock held by such Seller (the “Put Option”) at any time between one day after the closing and three hundred and sixty-five days after the closing, the seller or any holder of the registrable securities may make written demand upon the purchase for the purchase to repurchase the registrable securities for $1 per share.

Because the Company is required to repurchase these issued common shares if the Seller exercises the above Put Option, this redemption feature meets the definition under the ASC 480-10-25-8, “Obligations to Repurchase Issuer’s Equity Shares by Transferring Assets”. Per ASC 480-10-25-8, the obligation to repurchase an issuer’s own shares by transferring assets should be recognized as a liability at inception date. Therefore, the number of potential shares needed to repurchase the Common Stock under this Put Option was 1,400,000 shares as of December 31, 2013. This obligation was recorded as a current liability of $1.4 million of Redeemable Common Stock liability in the accompanying balance sheet.

ASC 805, Business Combinations, provides guidance on determining whether an acquired set of assets meets the definition of a business for accounting purposes. Under the framework, the acquired set of activities and assets have to be capable of being operated as a business, from the viewpoint of a market participant as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements. Two essential elements required for an integrated set of activities are inputs and outputs. The Company evaluated the Asset Purchase Agreement and in accordance with the guidance, determined it did not meet the definition of a business acquisition as the acquisition consisted solely of the two primary compounds, Brilacidin and related compounds, and Delparantag and related compounds, and certain other tangible assets. The Company did not acquire the right to any employees previously involved with the technology, or research processes previously in place at Seller. The Company has therefore accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition.

The purchase price was allocated to the identified tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their relative fair values, which were derived from their individual estimated fair values of $96,000 and $4,706,000, respectively.

The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation for the assets acquired:

Intangible assets – patents rights – Brilacidin, Delparantag and other related compounds
  $ 4,706,000  
Tangible assets - Laboratory equipment and computer systems
  $ 96,000

Office Lease
 
Dr. Menon, the Company’s principal shareholder, President, and Director, also serves as the Chief Operating Officer and Director of Kard Scientific (“KARD”). On December 7, 2007, the Company began renting office space from KARD, on a month to month basis for $900 per month. This continued through August 2013 and since September 1, 2013, the Company no longer leases space from Kard. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and the period June 20, 2007 (date of inception) through March 31, 2014, the Company has included approximately $0, $2,700, $1,800, $8,100 and $62,100 of rent expense paid to KARD in general and administrative expenses, respectively. At March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, rent payables to KARD of approximately $56,000 and $60,000, respectively, were included in accrued expenses.

In September 2013, Cellceutix Corporation signed a lease extension agreement with Cummings Properties for the company’s offices and laboratories at 100 Cummings Center, Suite 151-B Beverly, MA 01915. The lease is for a term of five years from October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2018 and requires monthly payments of approximately $16,000. Cellceutix had taken over the space occupied by KARD. In addition, Innovative Medical Research Inc., (“Innovative Medical”) a company owned by Leo Ehrlich and Dr. Krishna Menon, officers of Cellecutix has co-signed the lease and will rent approximately 200 square feet of office space, the space previously used by Cellceutix and will pay Cellceutix $900 per month, the same amount Cellceutix previously paid KARD. Innovative Medical paid total rent of $6,300 to Cellceutix from October 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014 and the rental payment was offset with the accrued rent owed to KARD.

Clinical Studies
 
As of September 28, 2007 the Company engaged KARD to conduct specified pre-clinical studies. The Company did not have an exclusive arrangement with KARD. All work performed by KARD needed prior approval by the executive officers of the Company, and the Company retained all intellectual property resulting from the services by KARD. The Company has now developed its own research study capabilities and no longer uses KARD. At March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the accrued research and development expenses to KARD of approximately $1,686,000 were included in accounts payable.

11. Note Payable – Related Party
 
During the year ended June 30, 2010, Mr. Ehrlich loaned the Company a total of approximately $973,000. A condition for this note was that the Ehrlich Promissory Note A and Ehrlich Promissory Note B be replaced with a new note, Ehrlich Promissory Note C. The Ehrlich Promissory Note C is an unsecured demand note that bears 9% simple interest per annum and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at $0.50 per share. The note requires that the interest rate on the amounts due on Ehrlich Promissory Notes A and B be changed retroactively, beginning October 1, 2009, to 9%. On April 1, 2011, the Company amended the Ehrlich Promissory Note C and agreed to retroactively convert accrued interest of approximately $97,000 through December 31, 2010 into additional principal. During the year ended June 30, 2011, Mr. Ehrlich loaned the Company an additional approximately $997,000 which brought the total balance of the demand note to approximately $2,002,000. During the year ended June 30, 2012, Mr. Ehrlich loaned the Company an additional $20,000 which brought the balance of the demand note to approximately $2,022,000.

On May 8, 2012, the Company did not have the ability to repay the Ehrlich Promissory Note C loan and agreed to change the interest rate on the outstanding balance of principle and interest of approximately $2,248,000, as of March 31, 2012, from 9% simple interest to 10% simple interest, and the Company issued 2,000,000 Equity Incentive Options exercisable at $0.51 per share equal to 110% of the closing bid price of $0.46 per share on May 7, 2012.

Extension of the expiration date of an aggregate of 2,223,000 Series B, Series C, and Series D common share purchase warrants

On December 1, 2013, 2,223,000 Series B, Series C, and Series D common share purchase warrants issued by the Company were modified to extend their maturity date to December 31, 2015. As the Company is in an accumulated deficit position, the deemed dividend was charged against additional paid-in-capital for common shares, there being no retained earnings from which to declare a dividend. The net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders reflects both the net income (loss) and the deemed dividend.

The deemed dividend of $1,880,000 was computed as the incremental value of the modified warrants over the unmodified warrants on the modification date using a per share price of the range from $0.50 to $1.50 per share which were the contemporaneous private placement offering price. Assumptions used in the Black Scholes option-pricing model for these warrants were as follows:

$20 million Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Aspire Capital Fund, LLC

On October 25, 2013, we terminated a previous agreement with Aspire Capital Fund, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (Aspire Capital), and entered into a new Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Aspire Capital, which provides that upon meeting the terms of the agreement, Aspire Capital is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $20,000,000 of our shares of Class A Common Stock over the approximately 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement. In consideration for entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Aspire Capital 210,523 shares of our Class A Common Stock as a commitment fee. The commitment fee of $373,000 will be amortized as the funding is received. The amortized amount of $30,000 was debited to additional paid-in capital. The unamortized portion is carried on the balance sheet as deferred offering costs and was $343,000 at March 31, 2014.

Concurrently with entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to file one or more registration statements as permissible and necessary under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock that have been and may be issued to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement. On November 4, 2013, the Company filed a Form S-3 registration statement and the registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on November 15, 2013.
 
Under the Purchase Agreement, on any trading day selected by Cellceutix which the closing sale price of our Class A Common Stock exceeds $0.25 per share, we may direct Aspire Capital to purchase up to 200,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock per trading day. The Purchase Price of such shares is equal to the lesser of a) the lowest sale price of our Class A Common Stock on the purchase date; or b) the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing sale prices for our Class A Common Stock during the twelve consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the purchase date.
 
In addition, on any date on which we submit a Purchase Notice to Aspire Capital for purchase of at least 100,000 Purchase Shares and the closing sale price of our stock is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share, we also have the right to direct Aspire Capital to purchase an amount of stock equal to up to 30% of the aggregate shares of the our Class A Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board on the next trading day, subject to the VWAP Purchase Share Volume Maximum and the VWAP Minimum Price Threshold, which is equal to the greater of (a) 90% of the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on the business day immediately preceding the VWAP Purchase Date or (b) such higher price as set forth by the Company in the VWAP Purchase Notice. The VWAP Purchase Price of such shares is the lower of (a) the Closing Sale Price on the VWAP Purchase Date; or 95% of the volume-weighted average price for our Class A Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board; and (b)on the VWAP Purchase Date, if the aggregate shares to be purchased on that date have not exceeded the VWAP Purchase Share Volume Maximum or during that portion of the VWAP Purchase Date until such time as the sooner to occur of (i) the time at which the aggregate shares traded on the OTC Bulletin Board exceed the VWAP Purchase Share Volume Maximum or (ii) the time at which the sale price of our Class A Common Stock falls below the VWAP Minimum Price Threshold.

The purchase price will be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the trading day(s) used to compute the purchase price. We may deliver multiple Purchase Notices and VWAP Purchase Notices to Aspire Capital from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement, so long as the most recent purchase has been completed.
 
Under the Purchase Agreement, we and Aspire Capital may not affect any sales of shares of our Class A Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement on any trading day that the closing sale price of our Class A Common Stock is less than $0.25 per share.

The Company is never under any obligation to sell shares to Aspire Capital Fund. Aspire Capital Fund has no rights to require the Company to sell shares.

Management’s Plan of Operation
 
Research and Development Activities
 
We acquire exclusive rights to pharmaceutical compound candidates that are designed for treatment of diseases which may be either existing or diseases identified in the future. The Company spends most of its efforts and resources on its anti-cancer compound Kevetrin, for the treatment of certain cancers, Prurisol, for the treatment of psoriasis, and Brilacidin for the treatments of skin infections and oral mucositis. Based on the studies to date, the Company has decided to advance these drugs along the regulatory and clinical pathway. We anticipate using our expertise to manage and perform what we believe are the most critical aspects of the product development process which include: (i) the design and oversight of clinical trials; (ii) the development and execution of strategies for the protection and maintenance of intellectual property rights; and (iii) the interaction with regulatory authorities internationally. We expect to concentrate on product development and engage in a limited way in product discovery, avoiding the significant investment of time and financial resources that is generally required before a compound is identified and brought into clinical trials. At this time the Company is focusing its research and development efforts on Kevetrin, Prurisol, Brilacidin, and to a lesser amount on our other anti-infectives and anti-fungal compounds.
 
We are a clinical stage company. We have no product sales to date and we will not receive any product revenue until we receive approval from the FDA or equivalent foreign regulatory bodies to begin selling our pharmaceutical candidates. Developing pharmaceutical products, however, is a lengthy and very expensive process. Assuming we do not encounter any unforeseen safety issues during the course of developing our product candidates, we do not expect to complete the development of a product candidate for several years, if ever.

Intellectual Property, Patents and Licenses Acquired

See below list of material intellectual property, patents, licenses acquired and their expiration dates.
 
Brilacidin

The intravenous formulation of Polymedix’s lead product candidate, brilacidin, is an antibiotic which has the potential to treat a variety of indications, including ACUTE BACTERIAL SKIN AND SKIN STRUCTURE INFECTIONS (“ABSSSI”) caused by either drug-sensitive or drug-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.
 
Acute Bacterial Skin And Skin Structure Infections (“ABSSSI”)
 
In April 2012, Polymedix completed and announced positive results from a Phase 2 clinical trial with brilacidin. This randomized, blinded, active-controlled, multinational Phase 2 clinical trial was conducted at multiple sites in Canada, Russia and Ukraine. The study objectives were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of brilacidin as treatment for ABSSSI caused by Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The study objectives were met, with all evaluated doses of brilacidin demonstrating similar clinical response rates to those of the active control, daptomycin. The study was conducted in accordance with FDA’s most recent ABSSSI guidelines and is intended to support regulatory approval in the United States.

In late 2012, prior to the dissolution of PolyMedix, an extensive PK-PD analysis of all brilacidin efficacy and safety data was conducted and discussed at a meeting with the FDA. It was determined that commonly observed adverse events, including hypertension and numbness/tingling, were related to total administered dose, and that adverse events could be significantly reduced by simply lowering the total dose. Given that brilacidin kills bacteria in a concentration-dependent manner, there is a unique opportunity to reduce adverse events and maintain high clinical efficacy by contracting the dosing regimen to 1-3 days, thereby gaining the additional benefits of higher patient compliance and reduced health care costs. The FDA therefore supported the use of brilacidin in a U.S.-based phase 2b clinical trial comparing three short-course regimens (two single-dose regimens and one 3-day regimen) to an active comparator, daptomycin. Similar to the previous trial, the current study is to enroll approximately 200 patients (50 patients per arm).

This phase 2b trial received IRB-approval in early January 2014 and enrolled its first patient in February 2014. At this time patient enrollment is expected to be completed in August/September 2014.

Brilacidin for Eye and Ear Indications

Cellceutix is formulating and conducting preclinical experiments using outside vendors on brilacidin for ophthalmic infections, including keratitis and conjunctivitis, and for ear-related infections, such as otitis media. Upon a successful formulation the Company plans to advance these drugs into the clinic. The Company believes that this work is challenging and will not be completed in 2014.

Oral Mucositis
 
In animal models of oral mucositis, an oral rinse containing brilacidin was shown to reduce the occurrence of severe ulcerative oral mucositis by more than 90% compared to placebo. Brilacidin and related compounds have shown antibacterial, anti-biofilm and anti-inflammatory properties in various pre-clinical studies. Polymedix believed that the combination of these attributes contribute to the efficacy of brilacidin in these animal models. In December 2014, the Company filed an application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requesting Orphan Drug designation for brilacidin as a drug candidate for the prevention oral mucositis in head and neck cancer. FDA has now advised the company that the data would indicate the brilacidin-OM could treat not only patients that have radiation induced OM but as well as patients with chemotherapy-induced OM. Therefore the target population would exceed the number of patients that would qualified for orphan drug designation. The company still believes that brilacidin-OM meets the potential to capture significant market share with the introduction of a new therapy for OM. The Company is now completing the preclinical development necessary for filing an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA.

Delparantag
 
Delparantag (formerly PMX-60056) is a synthetic, small-molecule intended to reverse the effects of the commonly used anticoagulants unfractionated heparin (UFH), and its derivatives, low molecular weight heparins (LMWH), to help manage the balance of antithrombosis and anticoagulation and reduce the incidence of bleeding in certain interventional cardiology procedures, such as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) and Coronary Arterial Bypass Grafting (CABG), and other situations where UFH and LMWH are used and bleeding may occur.
 
In May 2012, Polymedix announced that they had stopped enrollment in two clinical trials for delparantag: a Phase 2 clinical trial for reversing the anticoagulant activity of UFH in patients undergoing PCI procedures, and a Phase 1B/2 clinical trial for reversing the anticoagulant activity of the LMWH enoxaparin in healthy volunteers. While delparantag showed activity in neutralizing both UFH and the LMWH enoxaparin in these clinical trials, Polymedix decided to stop enrollment in both trials due to observations of reductions in blood pressure in some patients. Presently we are looking into reformulating the compound, as a means by which blood pressure reactions could be reduced or eliminated. At the present time this project has a lower priority than our anti-biotic compounds due to limited resources of staff and funding and as of the date of this filing the Company has engaged in limited work on this compound.

Candida

Extensive screening of the compounds acquired has identified five promising drug candidates for fungal infections, including PMX1502 and PMX1408 as stand-outs for anti-Candida fungal activity to be used for both oral and disseminated candidiasis. We are now actively engaged in further research on these compounds.

Other Candidates

Other product candidates acquired by us include, without limitation, compounds active against gram-negative bacteria, fungal infections, malaria, tuberculosis, bio warfare pathogens, and PolyCide® antimicrobial biomaterials.

We are currently evaluating all these programs. We believe it is still too soon in our acquisition process to develop a comprehensive plan or budget for the development costs of these newly acquired Polymedix Assets.

Our Other Compounds
 
Kevetrin
 
On June 21, 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approved the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for Kevetrin, Cellceutix's novel anti-cancer compound. The Phase 1 trial being conducted at Harvard Cancer Center's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and partner Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center was activated in October of 2012. The open-label, dose-escalation clinical trial is evaluating Kevetrin, administered intravenously in patients with a variety of different solid tumor cancer types in patients with advanced-stage cancers. Primary endpoints for the study will be to determine the pharmacokinetics / pharmacodynamics, safety, dose limiting toxicities (DLT), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and to establish the dose for future clinical trials.

In June of 2013, the Phase 1 trial with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and partners Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Massachusetts General Hospital was presented at the American Association for Clinical Oncology in Chicago. The poster summarized the status of the trial, at which time, 10 patients had been enrolled in 3 cohorts with no DLTs observed.

As of April 2014, we are in the 7th cohort of patients. The dose escalation continues to progress as we have not yet observed any DLTs or the MTD. We anticipate this endpoint will be reached in the second half of 2014.
 
The trial is registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov: http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01664000?term=Kevetrin&rank=1

In 2012, we entered into an agreement with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School, on an innovative research project with Kevetrin. The Medical Center wishes to exploit the nuclear and/or mitochondrial pro-apoptotic function of p53 in melanoma and renal cell carcinoma, two types of cancer that are particularly resistant to therapy. BIDMC initiated combination studies with multikinase inhibitors which activate pro-apoptotic activity by translocation of p53 in mitochondria thereby inducing apoptosis. Apoptosis is enhanced by MDM2 inhibitors by stabilizing p53. As presented at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) meeting in 2012, Kevetrin phosphorylates MDM2 which activates and stabilizes p53 by monoubiquitination inducing apoptosis. Prior data from the BIDMC laboratory showed that agents of this class can augment the pro-apoptotic and antitumor effects of MDM2 antagonists and is expected to have a synergistic effect with Kevetrin. BIDMC tested the effects of Kevetrin alone and in combination with FDA-approved VEGFR antagonists in the renal cell carcinoma and melanoma studies. In vitro study endpoints include apoptosis by measuring caspase activation and PARP cleavage. In vivo endpoints include efficacy in a xenograft model, tumor vascularity, p53 levels, p21 expression and apoptosis. This study provided vital insight to exploit the nuclear and/or mitochondrial pro-apoptotic function by Kevetrin in combination with other multikinase inhibitors in treatment of these difficult to treat malignancies. The results received from BIDMC in April 2013, showed apoptosis induction (TUNEL assay) in renal cancer (786-O).

Results of these preclinical tests provided to date to the Company are encouraging and BIDMC and Cellceutix wish to move the study further. Cellceutix has provided the requested information from BIDMC that will be used to investigate a Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE) grant for a Phase 2 clinical study of renal cancer upon completion of the successful Phase 1 clinical study presently in progress.

In 2012, we formed an agreement with The University of Bologna in Italy (the “University”) and The Italian Cooperative Study Group on Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (ICSG on CML) and Acute Leukemia (GIMEMA Group) to test Kevetrin against Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML). We have been advised that the study, a Phase 1b trial, will be titled “A Multi-Center, Open-Label, Phase 1b Study of Escalating Doses of Kevetrin (Thioureidobutyronitrile) Administered Intravenously, with Cytarabine Administered A) Subcutaneously, or B) Intravenously, in Patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML).” The trial’s principal investigator will begin this Phase 1b trial once the MTD is achieved at the Dana Farber trial. The University of Bologna will source the funding for this trial. 

On May 20, 2009, the Company filed a U.S. patent application covering pharmaceutical formulations of Kevetrin and many novel compounds having similar structures to Kevetrin that may have potential as drug development candidates. The patent will expire May 19, 2029.
 
Prurisol

Prurisol is our anti-psoriasis drug candidate. It is a small molecule with a molecular weight of less than 500 MW. It is synthesized through a multi-step process using commercially available starting materials. Prurisol acts through immune modulation and PRINS reduction.

In June 2012, we participated in a pre IND meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") pertaining to Prurisol our compound targeting psoriasis. Cellceutix had requested the meeting for guidance on its initiatives to seek a section 505(b)(2) designation for Prurisol, which would allow us to forgo early-stage trials and advance Prurisol into later-stage clinical trials. Cellceutix was advised by the FDA that a 505(b)(2) application would be an acceptable approach for Prurisol.

In January 2014, the Company received approval from the Institutional Review Board ("IRB") responsible for the planned clinical study of the Company's psoriasis drug Prurisol at Phase One Solutions, a Florida phase 1 unit. The Bioequivalence trial is a short crossover study being conducted at the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") with the purpose of demonstrating that Prurisol, an ester of abacavir, converts into abacavir in humans, just as it did in animal models.

After receiving IRB approval, Cellceutix filed an Investigational New Drug application with the FDA in February of 2014. Upon the advice of the FDA, In April 2014, we initiated a Bioequivalence study At Phase One Solutions in Florida, entitled: “A Randomized, Open-Label, Single-Dose, 2 Period Crossover Pharmacokinetic and Bioequivalence Study, with a Lead-In Dose Period, Evaluating Oral Abacavir Acetate (Prurisol) and Oral Abacavir Sulfate (Ziagen®) in Healthy Volunteers”. The Primary Objective is to determine the average bioequivalence of abacavir derived from Prurisol in comparison with abacavir derived from the commercially available tablet formulation of Ziagen (abacavir sulfate). The Secondary Objectives are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Prurisol when administered in single doses to HLA-B*5701- negative healthy volunteers and to describe the pharmacokinetics of three escalating single doses of Prurisol with reference to doses of Ziagen and the maximum dose of Prurisol administered.

 
30

 
 
The trial, activated in April of 2014, is expected to complete dosing in June 2014. Additional time will be necessary for laboratory analysis. Only upon a successful study completion, the Company will move forward with the initiation of a larger Phase 2 trial under the guidance from the FDA that a 505(b)(2) designation is an appropriate developmental pathway for Prurisol.

Prurisol was manufactured and formulated for Cellceutix by Dr. Reddy's Laboratories and was completed in August 2013.
 
The trial is registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov:
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02101216?term=cellceutix&rank=1
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of March 31, 2014 the Company had a cash balance of approximately $5.1 million.

Aspire Capital Agreement

On October 25, 2013, we terminated a previous agreement with Aspire Capital Fund, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (Aspire Capital), and entered into a new stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Aspire Capital.

The new Purchase Agreement provides that upon meeting the terms of the agreement, Aspire Capital is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $20,000,000 of our shares of Class A Common Stock over the approximately 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement. In consideration for entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Aspire Capital 210,523 shares of our Class A Common Stock as a commitment fee. The commitment fee will be amortized as the funding is received. The unamortized portion is carried on the balance sheet as deferred offering costs. Concurrently with entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to file one or more registration statements as permissible and necessary under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock that have been and may be issued to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement. On November 4, 2013, the Company filed a Form S-3 registration statement and the registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on November 15, 2013.
 
Under the Purchase Agreement, on any trading day selected by Cellceutix which the closing sale price of our Class A Common Stock exceeds $0.25 per share, we may direct Aspire Capital to purchase up to 200,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock per trading day.

The Purchase Price of such shares is equal to the lesser of (a) the lowest sale price of our Class A Common Stock on the purchase date; or (b) the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing sale prices for our Class A Common Stock during the twelve consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the purchase date.
 
In addition, on any date on which we submit a Purchase Notice to Aspire Capital for purchase of at least 100,000 Purchase Shares and the closing sale price of our stock is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share, we also have the right to direct Aspire Capital to purchase an amount of stock equal to up to 30% of the aggregate shares of the our Class A Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board on the next trading day, subject to the VWAP Purchase Share Volume Maximum and the VWAP Minimum Price Threshold, which is equal to the greater of (a) 90% of the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on the business day immediately preceding the VWAP Purchase Date or (b) such higher price as set forth by the Company in the VWAP Purchase Notice. The VWAP Purchase Price of such shares is the lower of (a) the Closing Sale Price on the VWAP Purchase Date; or 95% of the volume-weighted average price for our Class A Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board; and (b)on the VWAP Purchase Date, if the aggregate shares to be purchased on that date have not exceeded the VWAP Purchase Share Volume Maximum or during that portion of the VWAP Purchase Date until such time as the sooner to occur of (i) the time at which the aggregate shares traded on the OTC Bulletin Board exceed the VWAP Purchase Share Volume Maximum or (ii) the time at which the sale price of our Class A Common Stock falls below the VWAP Minimum Price Threshold.

 
31

 
 
The purchase price will be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the trading day(s) used to compute the purchase price. We may deliver multiple Purchase Notices and VWAP Purchase Notices to Aspire Capital from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement, so long as the most recent purchase has been completed.
 
Under the Purchase Agreement, we and Aspire Capital may not affect any sales of shares of our Class A Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement on any trading day that the closing sale price of our Class A Common Stock is less than $0.25 per share.

The Company is never under any obligation to sell shares to Aspire Capital Fund. Aspire Capital Fund has no rights to require the Company to sell shares.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had completed sales to Aspire totaling 900,000 shares of common stock generating gross proceeds of approximately $1.6 million. As of March 31, 2014, a balance of $18.4 million remains and is available under the financing arrangement. From April 1, 2014 to May 8, 2014, the Company has generated additional proceeds of approximately $1,402,000 under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Aspire on the sale 900,000 shares of its common stock.
 
The Company expects to incur losses from its operations for the next few years. We expect to incur increasing research and development expenses, including expenses related to additional clinical trials. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we expand our business development, add employees, consultants, infrastructure and incur additional costs related to being a public company, including incremental audit fees for compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, investor relations programs and increased professional services. Based upon our expected rate of expenditures, we currently do not have sufficient cash reserves to meet all of our anticipated obligations through our fiscal year end of June 30, 2015. 
 
Requirement for Additional Working Capital

Research and Development Costs. We intend to use the net proceeds from the above Aspire transaction to fund our product development programs and for general corporate purposes, and therefore anticipate having sufficient funds to meet our planned drug development for the next twelve (12) months. We plan to incur the following expenses of approximately $16,780,000 over the next twelve (12) months: 

1. Research and Development- $1,500,000 in preclinical development costs including testing Kevetrin on additional tumors, and advancement of our anti- infective and anti-fungal compounds towards clinical trials.
 
2. Clinical trials - $11,700,000. We have budgeted $1,200,000 for our Phase 1 Kevetrin trials; $3,000,000 for the Prurisol phase 1 crossover study and phase 2/3 trials; $4,500,000 for the Brilicidin ABSSSI Phase 2b trials and the start of Phase 3 trials; and $3,000,000 for the planned Brilicidin Oral Mucositis Phase 2 trials.
 
3. Corporate overhead of $3,500,000: Budgeted office salaries, legal, accounting and other costs expected to be incurred.
 
4. Capital costs of $80,000: Estimated cost for equipment and laboratory improvements.
 
The Company will be unable to proceed with its full planned drug development programs, meet its administrative expense requirements, capital costs, or staffing costs without accessing approximately $12 million (as per current management’s budgets) of our remaining financing available with Aspire Capital. This does not include any budgeted amounts for further development of the Polymedix assets.
 
Management intends to use capital and debt financing, as required, to fund the Company's operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the additional capital resources on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company to fund its anticipated obligations for the next twelve (12) months.

Subsequent Events

From April 1, 2014 to May 8, 2014, the Company has generated additional proceeds of approximately $1,402,000 under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Aspire on the sale 900,000 shares of its common stock.

On April 1, 2014 the Board of Directors approved the stock option grant to purchase 40,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1.64 per share to one consultant. The option was vested on April 1, 2014 and the option life is 5 years and will expire on March 31, 2019. In addition, the Company will pay $20,000 per month for the six month period from January 7, 2014 to July 6, 2014.

On April 30, 2014, the Company received an exercise notice from a warrant holder for exercise of 200,000 warrants and the Company received the $200,000 on May 2, 2014.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 304(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
We did not have any market risk sensitive instruments outstanding during this period.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2014 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
 
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has determined that material weaknesses exist due to:
 
 
  
The Company lacks the necessary corporate accounting resources to maintain adequate segregation of duties. Reliance on these limited resources impairs Company’s ability to provide for proper segregation of duties and the ability to ensure consistently complete and accurate financial reporting, as well as disclosure controls and procedures.

 
●  
Lack of sufficient accounting expertise to appropriately apply GAAP for complex or non-recurring equity transactions.
 
The Company believes that the two deficiencies set forth above did not have an effect on the financial statements.
 
 
33

 
 
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
 
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we plan to initiate the following series of measures when we have the financial resources to do so:
 
We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function.
 
Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside Directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, would remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
Formatech is a former vendor of ours which had received 184,375 shares of Cellceutix Class A Common Stock (“Cellceutix Stock”) for services that were not completed. Formatech had gone bankrupt while still in possession of the Cellceutix Stock. In July 2012, the US Bankruptcy Court allowed the trustee of the Formatech estate to sell the Cellceutix Stock. We have been advised that the stock had been sold in 2013 and the funds released to the secured creditors of Formatech. Cellceutix presently is in the unsecured creditors class and does not expect to receive any proceeds, but the court case as of this date still remains open.
 
From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business. The Company is not currently aware of any other legal proceedings or claims that they believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or operating results.
 
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
Investing in the Company's common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included or referred to in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, before purchasing shares of the Company's common stock. There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent the Company from achieving its goals. The risks described below are not the only ones the Company will face. If any of these risks actually occur, the Company's business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of the Company's common stock could decline and investors in the Company's common stock could lose all or part of their investment.
 
Risks Specific to Us
 
We need to raise substantial additional capital in the future to fund our operations and we may be unable to raise such funds when needed and on acceptable terms, which could prevent us from fully implementing our business, operating and development plans.
 
We currently have an approximate $5.1 million cash balance in the bank but that is insufficient to complete the development and commercialization of any of our proposed products. We expect to incur costs of approximately $16.8 million in the upcoming twelve (12) months to operate our business in accordance with our business plans and budgets.

On October 25, 2013 we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Aspire Capital which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, Aspire Capital is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $20 million of our shares of Class A Common Stock over the approximately 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement. The extent to which we utilize the Purchase Agreement as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors, including the prevailing market price of our Class A Common Stock, the volume of trading in our Class A Common Stock and the extent to which we are able to secure funds from other sources. The number of shares that we may sell to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement on any given day and during the term of the Purchase Agreement is limited. See the Section entitled “Selling Stockholders - The Aspire Transaction” of this prospectus for additional information. Additionally, we and Aspire Capital may not affect any sales of shares of our Class A Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement during the continuance of an event of default or on any trading day that the closing price of our stock falls below $0.25 per share. Even if we are able to access the full $20,000,000 under the Purchase Agreement, we will still need additional capital to fully implement our business, operating and development plans.

Previously on December 6, 2012, we entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Aspire Capital pursuant to which Aspire Capital committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $10 million of our shares of Class A Common Stock over three years. On October 23, 2013, Aspire Capital completed its purchase of the full $10 million available under that agreement. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to access the full $20 million available under the new Purchase Agreement in the same manner given the limitations and conditions described above.
 
If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms, such as liquidation and other preferences, which are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected and we may be unable to continue our operations.
 
We may be unable to secure this amount of financing on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company. In the event that we cannot obtain acceptable financing, we would be unable to complete preclinical development projects, and clinical trials for Kevetrin, Prurisol, and Brilacidin. This will delay:
 
 
research and development programs;
 
 
preclinical studies and clinical trials; material characterization studies, regulatory processes;
 
 
establishment of our own laboratory or a search for third party marketing partners to market our products for us.
 
The amount of capital we may require will depend on many factors, including the:
 
 
progress, timing and scope of our research and development programs;
 
 
progress, timing and scope of our preclinical studies and clinical trials;
 
 
time and cost necessary to obtain regulatory approvals;
 
 
time and cost necessary to establish our own marketing capabilities or to seek marketing partners;
 
 
time and cost necessary to respond to technological and market developments;
 
 
35

 
 
 
changes made or new developments in our existing collaborative, licensing and
 
 
other commercial relationships; and
 
 
new collaborative, licensing and other commercial relationships that we may establish.

Our fixed expenses, such as rent and other contractual commitments, may increase in the future, as we may:
 
 
enter into leases for new facilities and capital equipment;
 
 
enter into additional licenses and collaborative agreements; and
 
 
incur additional expenses associated with being a public company.
 
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to remediate these material weaknesses and maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, which could adversely affect our operating results, our ability to operate our business and investors’ and customers’ views of us.
 
As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013, filed with the SEC on September 30, 2013, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. In connection with our fiscal 2013 audit, we concluded that we did not have sufficient personnel in place for an adequate amount of time or effective operating internal control procedures to ensure timely and accurate reviews necessary to provide reasonable assurance that financial statements and related disclosures could be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Although we have added personnel to help with internal controls and procedures, we concluded that we had not yet fully remediated the weakness previously identified. For a discussion of the material weakness and our remediation efforts during 2013 as well as ongoing remediation efforts, see Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K. We cannot assure you that our efforts to fully remediate these internal control weaknesses will be successful or that similar material weaknesses will not recur.
 
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm includes a going concern opinion, and we may not be profitable in the future, if ever. 
 
As of March 31, 2014, we had approximately $5.1 million of cash available to support operations or our business plan. Our operating cash needs, cash consumption, and doubt as to whether we will ever become profitable, are factors which raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Consequently, our independent registered public accounting firm has included a going concern paragraph in its audit report which is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. It is uncertain at this time how the going concern language by our independent registered public accounting firm will affect our ability to raise capital. If we are unable to achieve revenues or obtain financing on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company, then we may not be able to commence revenue-generating operations or continue as an on-going concern. 
 
The sale of our Class A Common Stock to Aspire Capital may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and the sale of the shares of Class A Common Stock acquired by Aspire Capital could cause the price of our Class A Common Stock to decline, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
We have registered for sale the Commitment Shares that we have issued to Aspire Capital, and an additional 13,789,477 shares of Class A Common stock that we may sell to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement. It is anticipated that shares registered in this offering will be sold over a period of up to approximately 36 months from October 25, 2013, the date of the signing of the Purchase Agreement. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by Aspire Capital under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares we elect to sell to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement. Depending upon market liquidity at the time, sales of shares of our Class A Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement may cause the trading price of our Class A Common Stock to decline.

 
36

 
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had completed sales to Aspire totaling 900,000 shares of common stock generating gross proceeds of approximately $1.6 million. As of March 31, 2014, a balance of $18.4 million remains and is available under the financing arrangement. From April 1, 2014 to May 8, 2014, the Company has generated additional proceeds of approximately $1,402,000 under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Aspire on the sale 900,000 shares of its common stock.
 
Aspire Capital may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the Class A Common Stock that, together with the Commitment Shares, is the subject of this prospectus. Aspire Capital may sell all, some or none of our shares that it holds or comes to hold under the Purchase Agreement. Sales by Aspire Capital of shares acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement under the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, may result in dilution to the interests of other holders of our Class A Common Stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock by Aspire Capital in this offering, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of sales of our shares to Aspire Capital, and the Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any penalty or cost to us.
 
All of our Polymedix drug product candidates are licensed from or based upon licenses from the University of Pennsylvania. Upon our purchase of the Polymedix Assets we assumed all contractual rights and obligations of the licenses. If any of these license agreements are terminated, our ability to advance our Polymedix product candidates or develop new product candidates will be materially adversely affected which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
We now depend, and will continue to depend, on our Polymedix licenses and potentially on other licensing arrangements and/or strategic relationships with third parties for the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of our Polymedix product candidates. If any of our licenses or relationships are terminated or breached, we may:
 
 
lose our rights to develop and market our Polymedix product candidates;
 
lose patent and/or trade secret protection for our Polymedix product candidates;
 
experience significant delays in the development or commercialization of our Polymedix product candidates;
 
not be able to obtain any other licenses on acceptable terms, if at all; and/or
 
incur liability for damages.
 
If we experience any of the foregoing, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business and could force us to cease operations which could cause you to lose all of your investment.
 
We are a development stage company and have no products approved for commercial sale, have never generated any revenues, and may never achieve revenues or profitability.
 
We are a development stage biopharmaceutical company. Currently, we have no products approved for commercial sale and, to date, we have not generated any revenues. Our ability to generate revenue depends heavily on:
 
 
successful demonstration in clinical trials that our drug candidates, Kevetrin, Prurisol, and Brilacidin are safe and effective;
 
our ability to seek and obtain regulatory approvals, including with respect to the indications we are seeking;
 
the successful commercialization of our product candidates; and
 
market acceptance of our products.
 
 
37

 
 
If we do not successfully develop and commercialize at least one of our compounds, we will not achieve revenues or profitability in the foreseeable future, if at all. If we are unable to generate revenues or achieve profitability, we may be unable to continue our operations. 
 
We are a development stage company with a limited operating history, making it difficult for you to evaluate our business and your investment, and we may never generate any revenue which could cause us to cease operations.
 
We are in the development stage and our operations and the development of our proposed products are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including but not limited to: 
 
 
the absence of an operating history; 
 
 
the lack of commercialized products; 
 
 
insufficient capital;
 
 
expected substantial and continual losses for the foreseeable future; 
 
 
limited experience in dealing with regulatory issues; 
 
 
the lack of manufacturing experience and limited marketing experience;
 
 
possible reliance on third parties for the development and commercialization of our proposed products;
 
 
a competitive environment characterized by numerous, well-established and well capitalized competitors; and 
 
 
reliance on key personnel. 
 
Because we are subject to these risks, you may have a difficult time evaluating our business and your investment in our Company. Our ability to become profitable depends primarily on the following factors:
 
 
our ability to develop drugs, obtain approval for such drugs, and if approved, to successfully commercialize our drugs;
 
 
our R&D efforts, including the timing and cost of clinical trials; and
 
 
our ability to enter into favorable alliances with third-parties who can provide substantial capabilities in clinical development, regulatory affairs, sales, marketing and distribution. 

Even if we successfully develop and market our drug candidates, we may not generate sufficient or sustainable revenue to achieve or sustain profitability, which could cause us to cease operations.
 
 
38

 
 
We have limited experience in drug development and may not be able to successfully develop any drugs. 
 
We have limited experience in drug development and may not be able to successfully develop any drugs. Our ability to achieve revenues and profitability in our business will depend, among other things, on our ability to:
 
 
develop products internally or obtain rights to them from others on favorable terms; 
 
 
 
complete laboratory testing and human studies; 
 
 
 
obtain and maintain necessary intellectual property rights to our products; 
 
 
 
successfully complete regulatory review to obtain requisite governmental agency approvals 
 
 
 
enter into arrangements with third parties to manufacture our products on our behalf; and 
 
 
 
enter into arrangements with third parties to provide sales and marketing functions. 
 
If we are unable to achieve revenues and profitability, then we will be forced to cease operations which could cause you to lose all of your investment.
 
Development of pharmaceutical products is a time-consuming process, subject to a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Consequently, we can provide no assurance of the successful and timely development of new drugs, and the failure to do so could cause us to cease operations.
 
Our drug candidates are in developmental and phase 1 and 2 clinical stages but have not yet reached the most important clinical phase 3 stage. Further development and extensive testing will be required to determine their technical feasibility and commercial viability. Our success will depend on our ability to achieve scientific and technological advances and to translate such advances into reliable, commercially competitive drugs on a timely basis. Drugs that we may develop are not likely to be commercially available for several years, if ever. The proposed development schedules for our drug candidates may be affected by a variety of factors, including technological difficulties, proprietary technology of others, and changes in government regulation, many of which will not be within our control. Any delay in the development, introduction or marketing of our drug candidates could result either in such drugs being marketed at a time when their cost and performance characteristics would not be competitive in the marketplace or in the shortening of their commercial lives. In light of the long-term nature of our projects, the unproven technology involved and the other factors described elsewhere in “Risk Factors”, we may not be able to complete successfully the development or marketing of any of our drug candidates. 
 
We may fail to successfully develop and commercialize our drug candidates because they:
 
 
are found to be unsafe or ineffective in clinical trials; 
 
 
 
do not receive necessary approval from the FDA or foreign regulatory agencies; 
 
 
 
fail to conform to a changing standard of care for the diseases they seek to treat; or 
 
 
 
are less effective or more expensive than current or alternative treatment methods.

 
39

 
 
Drug development failure can occur at any stage of clinical trials and as a result of many factors and there can be no assurance that we will reach our anticipated clinical targets. Even if we complete our clinical trials, we do not know what the long-term effects of exposure to our drug candidates will be. Furthermore, our drug candidates may be used in combination with other treatments and there can be no assurance that such use will not lead to unique safety issues. Failure to complete clinical trials or to prove that our drug candidates are safe and effective would have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate revenue and could require us to reduce the scope of or discontinue our operations, which could cause you to lose all of your investment.
 
We must comply with significant and complex government regulations, compliance with which may delay or prevent the commercialization of our drug candidates which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
The R&D, manufacture and marketing of drug candidates are subject to regulation, primarily by the FDA in the United States, and by comparable authorities in other countries. These national agencies and other federal, state, local and foreign entities regulate, among other things, R&D activities (including testing in animals and in humans) and the testing, manufacturing, handling, labeling, storage, record keeping, approval, advertising and promotion of the products that we are developing. Noncompliance with applicable requirements can result in various adverse consequences, including approval delays or refusals to approve drug licenses or other applications, suspension or termination of clinical investigations, revocation of approvals previously granted, fines, criminal prosecution, recalls or seizures of products, injunctions against shipping drugs and total or partial suspension of production and/or refusal to allow a company to enter into governmental supply contracts. 
 
The process of obtaining FDA approval for a drug has historically been costly and time consuming. Current FDA requirements for a new human drug or biological product to be marketed in the United States include: (i) the successful conclusion of pre-clinical laboratory and animal tests, if appropriate, to gain preliminary information on the product's safety; (ii) filing with the FDA of an IND application to conduct human clinical trials for drugs or biologics; (iii) the successful completion of adequate and well-controlled human clinical investigations to establish the safety and efficacy of the product for its recommended use; and (iv) filing by a company and acceptance and approval by the FDA of a New Drug Application (“NDA”), for a drug product or a biological license application (“BLA”), for a biological product to allow commercial distribution of the drug or biologic. A delay in one or more of the procedural steps outlined above could be harmful to the Company in terms of getting our drug candidates through clinical testing and to market. 
 
The FDA reviews the results of the clinical trials and may order the temporary or permanent discontinuation of clinical trials at any time if it believes the drug candidate exposes clinical subjects to an unacceptable health risk. Investigational drugs used in clinical studies must be produced in compliance with current good manufacturing practice (“cGMP”) rules pursuant to FDA regulations. 
 
Sales outside the United States of products that we develop will also be subject to additional regulatory requirements governing human clinical trials and marketing for drugs and biological products and devices. The requirements vary widely from country to country, but typically the registration and approval process takes several years and requires significant resources.
 
We also are subject to the following risks and obligations, related to the approval of our products:
 
 
●  
The FDA or foreign regulators may interpret data from pre-clinical testing and clinical trials in different ways than we interpret them. 
 
●  
If regulatory approval of a product is granted, the approval may be limited to specific indications or limited with respect to its distribution. In addition, many foreign countries control pricing and coverage under their respective national social security systems. 
 
The FDA or foreign regulators may not approve our manufacturing processes or manufacturing facilities.
 
The FDA or foreign regulators may change their approval policies or adopt new regulations. 
 
Even if regulatory approval for any of our product is obtained, the corresponding marketing license will be subject to continual review, and newly discovered or developed safety or effectiveness data may result in suspension or revocation of the marketing license.
 
If regulatory approval of the product candidate is granted, the marketing of that product would be subject to adverse event reporting requirements and a general prohibition against promoting products for unapproved uses. 
 
In some foreign countries, we may be subject to official release requirements that require each batch of the product we produce to be officially released by regulatory authorities prior to its distribution by us. 
 
We will be subject to continual regulatory review and periodic inspection and approval of manufacturing modifications, including compliance with cGMP regulations. 

 
40

 
 
If we do not have the requisite resources to comply with all applicable regulations, then we could be forced to cease operations which could cause you to lose all of your investment.
 
Even if we were to successfully develop approvable drugs, we will not be able to sell these drugs if we or our third party manufacturers fail to comply with manufacturing regulations
 
If we were to successfully develop approvable drugs, before we can begin selling these drugs, we must obtain regulatory approval of our cGMP manufacturing facility and process or the cGMP manufacturing facility and process of the third party or parties with whom we may outsource our manufacturing activities. The cGMP regulations govern quality control and documentation policies and procedures. Our manufacturing facilities, if any in the future, and the manufacturing facilities of our third party manufacturers will be continually subject to inspection by the FDA and other state, local and foreign regulatory authorities, before and after product approval. We cannot guarantee that we, or any potential third party manufacturer of our products, will be able to comply with the cGMP regulations or other applicable manufacturing regulations, and any failure to comply could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
We can provide no assurance that our drug candidates will obtain regulatory approval or that the results of clinical studies will be favorable, and if we fail to obtain such approval or if clinical studies are not favorable, we could be forced to cease operations.
 
Presently, we are in a Phase 1 clinical trial for Kevetrin, our anti-cancer drug; a Phase 1 study for Prurisol (anti-psoriasis); and a Phase 2b for Brilacidin (ABSSSI). The work-plan we have developed for the next twelve (12) months should enable us to advance Kevetrin’s clinical trial to Phase 2; commence Phase 2 clinical trials for Prurisol; commence Phase 3 clinical trials for Brilacidin (ABSSSI); and commence Phase 2 for Brilacidin-OM (oral mucositis).
 
The testing, marketing and manufacturing of any product for use in the United States will require approval from the FDA. We cannot predict with any certainty the amount of time necessary to obtain such FDA approval and whether any such approval will ultimately be granted. Preclinical and clinical trials may reveal that one or more products are ineffective or unsafe, in which event further development of such products could be seriously delayed or terminated. Moreover, obtaining approval for certain products may require testing on human subjects of substances whose effects on humans are not fully understood or documented. Delays in obtaining FDA or any other necessary regulatory approvals of any proposed drugs, and failure to receive such approvals, would have an adverse effect on the drug's potential commercial success and on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, it is possible that a proposed drug may be found to be ineffective or unsafe due to conditions or facts that arise after development has been completed and regulatory approvals have been obtained. In this event, we may be required to withdraw such proposed drug from the market. To the extent that our success will depend on any regulatory approvals from government authorities outside of the United States that perform roles similar to that of the FDA, uncertainties similar to those stated above will also exist.
 
Even if our product candidate Prurisol receives regulatory approval, commercialization may be adversely affected by regulatory actions requiring a boxed warning, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
Even if we receive regulatory approval for our psoriasis product candidate Prurisol, we expect an approval to include a boxed warning regarding possible severe health risks and side effects. Products with boxed warnings are subject to more restrictive regulations than products without such warnings. Boxed restrictions would make it more difficult to market Prurisol, and the added regulation could require us to expend resources that we may not have which could delay or prevent commercialization of that product which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
 
41

 
 
Even if we obtain regulatory approvals, our marketed drug candidates will be subject to ongoing regulatory review. If we fail to comply with continuing U.S. and foreign regulations, we could lose our approvals to market these drugs and our business would be seriously harmed.
 
Following any initial regulatory approval of any drugs we may develop, we will also be subject to continuing regulatory review, including the review of adverse experiences and clinical results that are reported after our drug candidates are made commercially available. This would include results from any post-marketing tests or vigilance required as a condition of approval. The manufacturer and manufacturing facilities we contract with to make any of our drug candidates will also be subject to periodic review and inspection by the FDA. The discovery of any previously unknown problems with the drug, manufacturer or facility may result in restrictions on the drug or manufacturer or facility, including withdrawal of the drug from the market. We do not have, and currently do not intend to develop, the ability to manufacture material for our clinical trials or on a commercial scale. Reliance on third-party manufacturers entails risks to which we would not be subject if we manufactured drugs ourselves, including reliance on the third-party manufacturer for regulatory compliance. Our drug promotion and advertising is also subject to regulatory requirements and continuing FDA review. If we are required to withdraw all or more of our drugs from the market as a result of actions or inactions on the part of the Company or a third party, we may be unable to continue revenue generating operations which could cause you to lose all of your investment.

We have limited experience in conducting or supervising clinical trials and must outsource all clinical trials, which expose us to risks which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
We have acquired limited experience in conducting and supervising clinical trials that must be performed to obtain data to submit in concert with applications for approval by the FDA. The regulatory process to obtain approval for drugs for commercial sale involves numerous steps. Drugs are subjected to clinical trials that allow development of case studies to examine safety, efficacy, and other issues to ensure that sale of drugs meets the requirements set forth by various governmental agencies, including the FDA. In the event that our protocols do not meet standards set forth by the FDA, or that our data is not sufficient to allow such trials to validate our drugs in the face of such examination, we might not be able to meet the requirements that allow our drugs to be approved for sale, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
Because we have limited experience in conducting or supervising clinical trials, we outsource a significant amount of the work relating to our clinical trials to third parties. We have no control over their compliance with procedures and protocols used to complete clinical trials in accordance with standards required by the agencies that approve drugs for sale. If these subcontractors fail to meet these standards, the validation of our drugs would be adversely affected, causing a delay in our ability to engage in revenue-generating operations which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
We are subject to risks inherent in conducting clinical trials. The risk of non compliance with FDA-approved good clinical practices by clinical investigators, clinical sites, or data management services could delay or prevent us from developing or ever commercializing our drug candidates, which could cause us to cease operations.
 
Agreements with clinical investigators and medical institutions for clinical testing and with other third parties for data management services place substantial responsibilities on these parties, which could result in delays in, or termination of, our clinical trials if these parties fail to perform as expected. For example, if any of our clinical trial sites fail to comply with FDA-approved good clinical practices, we may be unable to use the data gathered at those sites. If these clinical investigators, medical institutions or other third parties do not carry out their contractual duties or obligations or fail to meet expected deadlines, or if the quality or accuracy of the clinical data they obtain is compromised due to their failure to adhere to our clinical protocols or for other reasons, our clinical trials may be extended, delayed or terminated, and we may be unable to obtain regulatory approval for or successfully commercialize our drug candidates. 
 
We or regulators may suspend or terminate our clinical trials for a number of reasons. We may voluntarily suspend or terminate our clinical trials if at any time we believe that they present an unacceptable risk to the patients enrolled in our clinical trials. In addition, regulatory agencies may order the temporary or permanent discontinuation of our clinical trials at any time if they believe that the clinical trials are not being conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements or that they present an unacceptable safety risk to the patients enrolled in our clinical trials. In addition, clinical trials may have independent monitoring boards composed of experts in the field. These boards may also have the authority to suspend or terminate clinical trials. 
 
Our clinical trial operations will be subject to regulatory inspections at any time. If regulatory inspectors conclude that we or our clinical trial sites are not in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements for conducting clinical trials, we may receive reports of observations or warning letters detailing deficiencies, and we will be required to implement corrective actions. If regulatory agencies deem our responses to be inadequate, or are dissatisfied with the corrective actions that we or our clinical trial sites have implemented, our clinical trials may be temporarily or permanently discontinued, we may be fined, we or our investigators may be precluded from conducting any ongoing or any future clinical trials, the government may refuse to approve our marketing applications or allow us to manufacture or market our drug candidates or we may be criminally prosecuted. If we are unable to complete clinical trials and have our products approved due to our failure to comply with regulatory requirements, we will be unable to commence revenue generating operations which could force us to cease operations.

The Company is exposed to product liability, clinical and preclinical liability risks which could place a substantial financial burden upon the Company should it be sued. 
 
The Company could be exposed to potential product liability and other liability risks that are inherent in the testing, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical products. In addition, the use in the Company's clinical trials of pharmaceutical products that it may develop and the subsequent sale of these products by the Company or its potential collaborators may cause the Company to bear a portion of or all product liability risks. A successful liability claim or series of claims brought against the Company could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
The Company has $5,000,000 in liability insurance for our clinical trials. The Company cannot assure that such insurance will provide adequate coverage against the Company's potential liabilities. Claims or losses in excess of any product liability insurance coverage that may be obtained by the Company could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Confidentiality agreements with employees and others may not adequately prevent disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information. Disclosure of our trade secrets or proprietary information could compromise any competitive advantage that we have, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
We depend upon confidentiality agreements with our officers, employees, consultants, and subcontractors to maintain the proprietary nature of the technology. These measures may not afford us sufficient or complete protection, and may not afford an adequate remedy in the event of an unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. In addition, others may independently develop technology similar to ours, otherwise avoiding the confidentiality agreements, or produce patents that would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.
 
We may be unable to obtain or protect intellectual property rights relating to our products, and we may be liable for infringing upon the intellectual property rights of others, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 
Our ability to compete effectively will depend on our ability to maintain the proprietary nature of our compounds and the proprietary compounds of others with which we have entered into licensing agreements. We have filed two patent applications and expect to file a number of additional patent applications in the coming years. There can be no assurance that any of these patent applications will ultimately result in the issuance of a patent with respect to the proprietary compounds owned by us or licensed to us. The patent position of pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies, including ours, is generally uncertain and involves complex legal and factual considerations. The standards that the United States Patent and Trademark Office use to grant patents are not always applied predictably or uniformly and can change. There is also no uniform, worldwide policy regarding the subject matter and scope of claims granted or allowable in pharmaceutical or biotechnology patents. Accordingly, we do not know the degree of future protection for our proprietary rights or the breadth of claims that will be allowed in any patents issued to us or to others. Further, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, know-how, technology and nondisclosure, and other contractual agreements and technical measures to protect our rights in the proprietary compounds. If any trade secret, know-how or other proprietary information and/or compounds not protected by a patent were to be disclosed to or independently developed by a competitor, our business and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
 
We do not believe that any of the drug candidates we are currently developing infringe upon the rights of any third parties nor are they infringed upon by third parties; however, there can be no assurance that our proprietary compounds will not be found in the future to infringe upon the rights of others or be infringed upon by others. In such a case, others may assert infringement claims against us, and should we be found to infringe upon their patents, or otherwise impermissibly utilize their intellectual property, we might be forced to pay damages, potentially including treble damages, if we are found to have willfully infringed on such parties' patent rights. In addition to any damages we might have to pay, we may be required to obtain licenses from the holders of this intellectual property, enter into royalty agreements, or redesign our drug candidates so as not to utilize this intellectual property, each of which may prove to be uneconomical or otherwise impossible. Conversely, we may not always be able to successfully pursue our claims against others that infringe upon our proprietary compounds. Thus, the proprietary nature of our technology or technology licensed by us may not provide adequate protection against competitors. 
 
Moreover, the cost to us of any litigation or other proceeding relating to our patents and other intellectual property rights, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial, and the litigation would divert our management's efforts. Uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of any litigation could limit our ability to continue our operations.
 
 
43

 
 
Our potential collaborative relationships with third parties could cause us to expend significant resources and incur substantial business risk with no assurance of financial return, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business. 
 
We may have to rely substantially upon strategic collaborations for marketing and the commercialization of our drug candidates, and we may rely even more on strategic collaborations for R&D of our other drug candidates. Our business will depend on our ability to sell drugs to both government agencies and to the general pharmaceutical market. We may have to sell our drugs through strategic partnerships with pharmaceutical companies. If we are unable to establish or manage such strategic collaborations on terms favorable to us in the future, our revenue and drug development may be limited. To date, we have not entered into any strategic collaboration with third parties capable of providing these services. In addition, we have not yet marketed or sold any of our drug candidates or entered into successful collaborations for these services in order to ultimately commercialize our drug candidates. 
 
If we determine to enter into R&D collaborations during the early phases of drug development, our success will in part depend on the performance of our research collaborators. We will not directly control the amount or timing of resources devoted by our research collaborators to activities related to our drug candidates. Our research collaborators may not commit sufficient resources to our programs. If any research collaborator fails to commit sufficient resources, our preclinical or clinical development programs related to this collaboration could be delayed or terminated. Also, our collaborators may pursue existing or other development-stage products or alternative technologies in preference to those being developed in collaboration with us. Finally, if we fail to make required milestone or royalty payments to our collaborators, or to observe other obligations in our agreements with them, our collaborators may have the right to terminate those agreements. 
 
Management of our relationships with our collaborators will require:
 
 
significant time and effort from our management team; 
 
 
 
coordination of our marketing and R&D programs with the marketing and R&D priorities of our collaborators; and 
 
 
 
effective allocation of our resources to multiple projects. 
 
Establishing strategic collaborations is difficult and time-consuming. Our discussion with potential collaborators may not lead to the establishment of collaborations on favorable terms, if at all. Potential collaborators may reject collaborations based upon their assessment of our financial, regulatory or intellectual property position. Even if we successfully establish new collaborations, these relationships may never result in the successful development or commercialization of our drug candidates or the generation of sales revenue. To the extent that we enter into collaborative arrangements, our drug revenues are likely to be lower than if we directly marketed and sold any drugs that we may develop. 
 
We may not be able to attract and retain highly skilled personnel or consultants, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business. 
 
Our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel or consultants is critical to our operations and expansion. We face competition for these types of personnel from other pharmaceutical companies and more established organizations, many of which have significantly larger operations and greater financial, technical, human and other resources than us. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel or consultants on a timely basis, on competitive terms, or at all. If we are not successful in attracting and retaining these personnel or consultants, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.
 
We depend upon our senior management and their loss or unavailability could put us at a competitive disadvantage. 
 
We currently depend upon the efforts and abilities of our management team. On December 29, 2010, the Company entered into employment agreements with its two executive officers, Leo Ehrlich, the Company’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer, and Krishna Menon, Chief Scientific Officer for a period of three years ending on December 31, 2013. On January 1, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the extension of the Employment Agreements with Leo Ehrlich and Krishna Menon for a one year period with a 10% increase in salary from the previous annual salary of $423,500 each, to an annual salary of $465,850.

There are conflicts of interest among our officers, directors and stockholders. 
 
Certain of our executive officers and directors and their affiliates are engaged in other activities and have interests in other entities on their own behalf or on behalf of other persons. Neither we nor any of our stockholders will have any rights in these ventures or their income or profits. In particular:
 
 
Our executive officers or directors or their affiliates may have an economic interest in, or other business relationship with, partner companies that invest in us or are engaged in competing drug development; and
 
 
 
Previously, Kard Scientific, a company controlled by Dr. Krishna Menon, President and Director, provided preclinical and manufacturing services to the Company and leased space to the Company. 
 
In either of these cases:
 
 
Our executive officers or directors may have a conflict between our current interests and their personal financial and other interests in another business venture; and
 
 
 
Our executive officers or directors may have conflicting fiduciary duties to us and the other entity. 
 
While the Company is not aware of any conflict that has arisen to date, the Company does not have any policy in place to deal with such should such a conflict arise.
 
The biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries are characterized by rapid technological developments and a high degree of competition. We may be unable to compete with enterprises equipped with more substantial resources than us, which could cause us to cease operations.
 
The biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries are characterized by rapid technological developments and a high degree of competition based primarily on scientific and technological factors. These factors include the availability of patent and other protection for technology and products, the ability to commercialize technological developments and the ability to obtain government approval for testing, manufacturing and marketing.
 
We compete with biopharmaceutical firms in the United States, Europe and elsewhere, as well as a growing number of large pharmaceutical companies that are applying biotechnology to their operations. Many biopharmaceutical companies have focused their development efforts in the human therapeutics area, including cancer. Many major pharmaceutical companies have developed or acquired internal biotechnology capabilities or made commercial arrangements with other biopharmaceutical companies. These companies, as well as academic institutions, government agencies and private research organizations, also compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific personnel and consultants. Our ability to compete successfully with other companies in the pharmaceutical field will also depend to a considerable degree on the continuing availability of capital on terms and conditions acceptable to us. 
 
We are aware of numerous products under development or manufactured by competitors that are used for the prevention or treatment of certain diseases we have targeted for drug development. Various companies are developing biopharmaceutical products that potentially directly compete with our drug candidates even though their approach to such treatment is different.
 
For example, with respect to Kevetrin, our lead compound for cancer, there are many drugs approved to treat various cancers and many more in the publicly disclosed pipeline. Our success depends on our ability to identify tumor types where Kevetrin has an advantage over existing therapies and those in the publicly disclosed pipeline. The same is true for our compounds Prurisol and Brilacidin. Numerous drugs are already FDA approved for the treatment of psoriasis and ABSSSI.
 
Our competition will be determined in part by the potential indications for which drugs are developed and ultimately approved by regulatory authorities. Additionally, the timing of the market introduction of some of our potential drugs or of competitors' products may be an important competitive factor. Accordingly, the relative speed with which we can develop drugs, complete pre-clinical testing, clinical trials, approval processes and supply commercial quantities to market are important competitive factors. We expect that competition among drugs approved for sale will be based on various factors, including product efficacy, safety, reliability, availability, price and patent protection.

The successful development of biopharmaceuticals is highly uncertain. A variety of factors including, pre-clinical study results or regulatory approvals, could cause us to abandon development of our drug candidates, which could also cause us to cease operations and you may lose your entire investment.
 
Successful development of biopharmaceuticals is highly uncertain and is dependent on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control.
 
Products that appear promising in the early phases of development may fail to reach the market for several reasons including:
 
 
pre-clinical study results that may show the product to be less effective than desired (e.g., the study failed to meet its primary objectives) or to have harmful or problematic side effects;
 
 
 
failure to receive the necessary regulatory approvals or a delay in receiving such approvals. Among other things, such delays may be caused by slow enrollment in clinical studies, length of time to achieve study endpoints, additional time requirements for data analysis or a IND and later NDA, preparation, discussions with the FDA, an FDA request for additional pre-clinical or clinical data or unexpected safety or manufacturing issues; 
 
 
 
manufacturing costs, pricing or reimbursement issues, or other factors that make the product not economical; and 
 
 
 
the proprietary rights of others and their competing products and technologies that may prevent the product from being commercialized. 
 
Success in pre-clinical and early clinical studies does not ensure that large-scale clinical studies will be successful. Clinical results are frequently susceptible to varying interpretations that may delay, limit or prevent regulatory approvals. The length of time necessary to complete clinical studies and to submit an application for marketing approval for a final decision by a regulatory authority varies significantly from one product to the next, and may be difficult to predict or control.
 
Risks Related to the Securities Markets and Investments in Our Class A Common Stock
 
Because our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board your ability to sell your shares in the secondary trading market may be limited. 
 
Our Class A Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. Consequently, the liquidity of our Class A Common Stock is impaired, not only in the number of shares that are bought and sold, but also through delays in the timing of transactions, and coverage by security analysts and the news media, if any, of our Company. As a result, prices for shares of our Class A Common Stock may be lower than might otherwise prevail if our Class A Common Stock was quoted and traded on NASDAQ or a national securities exchange. 
 
Because our Class A Common Stock is considered "penny stock" you may have difficulty selling them in the secondary trading market. 
 
Federal regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) regulate the trading of so-called "penny stocks," which are generally defined as any security not listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ, priced at less than $5.00 per share and offered by an issuer with limited net tangible assets and revenues. Since our Class A Common Stock currently is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board at less than $5.00 per share, our shares are "penny stocks" and may not be traded unless a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith is delivered to a potential purchaser prior to any trade. 

 
46

 
 
In addition, because our Class A Common Stock is not listed on NASDAQ or any national securities exchange and currently is quoted at and trades at less than $5.00 per share, trading in our Class A Common Stock is subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, broker-dealers must take certain steps prior to selling a "penny stock," which steps include:
 
 
obtaining financial and investment information from the investor; 
 
 
 
obtaining a written suitability questionnaire and purchase agreement signed by the investor; and 
 
 
 
providing the investor a written identification of the shares being offered and the quantity of the shares. 
 
If these penny stock rules are not followed by the broker-dealer, the investor has no obligation to purchase the shares. The application of these comprehensive rules will make it more difficult for broker-dealers to sell our Class A Common Stock and our stockholders, therefore, may have difficulty in selling their shares in the secondary trading market. 
 
Our stock price may be volatile and your investment in our Class A Common Stock could suffer a decline in value.
 
As of March 31, 2014, the closing price of our Class A Common Stock, as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, was $1.64. The price may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:
 
 
progress of our products through the regulatory process; 
 
 
 
results of preclinical studies and clinical trials;
 
 
 
announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors; 
 
 
 
government regulatory action affecting our products or our competitors' products in both the United States and foreign countries; 
 
 
 
developments or disputes concerning patent or proprietary rights; 
 
 
 
general market conditions for emerging growth and pharmaceutical companies; 
 
 
 
economic conditions in the United States or abroad; 
 
 
 
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results; 
 
 
 
broad market fluctuations; and 
 
 
 
changes in financial estimates by securities analysts. 
 
 
47

 
 
Our directors and executive officers own or control a sufficient number of shares of our Class A Common Stock to control our Company, which could discourage or prevent a takeover, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders.
 
At March 31, 2014, our directors and executive officers own or control approximately 38% of our outstanding voting power of Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, these stockholders, individually and as a group, may be able to influence the outcome of stockholder votes, involving votes concerning the election of directors, the adoption or amendment of provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws and the approval of certain mergers or other similar transactions, such as sales of substantially all of our assets. Such control by existing stockholders could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company.
 
The dual class structure of our common stock can have the effect of concentrating voting control with Dr. Menon and/ or Mr. Ehrlich, which will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters.
 
Our Class B common stock entitles holders to ten (10) votes per share on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders and our Class A Common Stock entitles holders to one (1) vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Dr. Menon and Mr. Ehrlich each have vested options that they can exercise and convert into 18,000,000 shares of Class B common stock. That alone could result in the equivalent of 360,000,000 votes of Class A Common Stock. As of March 31, 2014 we had 107,112,129 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of Class B common stock outstanding. Because of the ten-to-one voting ratio between our Class B common stock and Class A Common Stock, upon exercise and conversion of such options into shares of Class B common stock, the Class B common stock holders can collectively control a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock (i.e., approximately 77.1%) and therefore be able to control all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval. This concentrated control will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters for the foreseeable future.
 
We do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and, therefore, any return on your investment in our Class A Common Stock must come from increases in the fair market value and trading price of the Class A Common Stock. 
 
We have not paid any cash dividends on our Class A Common Stock and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our Class A Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for reinvestment in the development and expansion of our business. Any credit agreements, which we may enter into with institutional lenders, may restrict our ability to pay dividends. Whether we pay cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and any other factors that the board of directors decides is relevant. Therefore, any return on your investment in our Class A Common Stock must come from increases in the fair market value and trading price of the Class A Common Stock. 
 
We may issue additional equity shares to fund the Company's operational requirements which would dilute your share ownership. 
 
The Company's continued viability depends on its ability to raise capital. Changes in economic, regulatory or competitive conditions may lead to cost increases. Management may also determine that it is in the best interest of the Company to develop new services or products. In any such case additional financing is required for the Company to meet its operational requirements. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain such financing on terms acceptable to the Company and at times required by the Company, if at all. In such event, the Company may be required to materially alter its business plan or curtail all or a part of its operational plans.

 
48

 
 
Large amounts of our Class A Common Stock will be eligible for resale under Rule 144.
 
As of March 31, 2014, 47,400,200 of the 107,112,129 issued and outstanding shares of our Class A Common Stock are restricted securities as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act and under certain circumstances may be resold without registration pursuant to Rule 144.
 
4,964,602 shares of our restricted shares of Class A Common Stock are held by non-affiliates who may avail themselves of the public information requirements and sell their shares in accordance with Rule 144. As a result, some or all of these shares may be sold in accordance with Rule 144 potentially causing the price of the Company's shares to decline.
 
In general, under Rule 144, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a six-month holding period may, under certain circumstances, sell within any three-month period a number of securities which does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock or the average weekly trading volume of the class during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale. Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of securities, without any limitation, by a person who is not an Affiliate, as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1), of the Company and who has satisfied a one-year holding period. Any substantial sale of the Company's Class A Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144 may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Class A Common Stock.
