NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2011
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2011
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1. The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The amounts in the notes are shown in thousands of EURO rounded to the nearest thousand except
for share and per share amounts.
The accompanying interim period consolidated financial statements of Mymetics Corporation (the
Company) set forth herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote
disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
SEC rules and regulations. The interim period consolidated financial statements should be read
together with the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Companys
latest annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
The accompanying financial statements of the Company are unaudited. However, in the opinion of
the Company, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein contain all
adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented.
All adjustments made during the three-month period ending March 31, 2011 were of a normal and
recurring nature.
The Company was created for the purpose of engaging in vaccine research and development. Its
main research efforts have been concentrated in the prevention and treatment of the AIDS virus
until it acquired an ongoing malaria vaccine project from one of its close scientific partners. On
April 1, 2009 the Company successfully closed its acquisition of Bestewil Holding BV and Mymetics
BV (previously Virosome Biologicals BV) and, as a result, has further increased the pipeline of
vaccines under development to include (i) Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) for elderly which is at
the end of pre-clinical stage (ii) Herpes Simplex which is at the pre-clinical stage, and
(iii)influenza for elderly which is at clinical trial Phase II and is being developed in
collaboration with Solvay Pharmaceuticals (now Abbott Laboratories). The Company has established a
network of partners and sub-contractors to further develop its vaccines, including education
centers, research centers, pharmaceutical laboratories and biotechnology companies.
These financial statements have been prepared treating the Company as a development stage
company. As of March 31, 2011, the Company is in the initial stages of clinical testing and a
commercially viable product is not expected for several more years. As such, the Company has not
generated significant revenues. For the purpose of these financial statements, the development
stage started May 2, 1990.
These financial statements have also been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a
going concern. The Company has experienced significant losses since inception resulting in a
deficit accumulated during the development stage of E55,218 at March 31, 2011. Deficits in
operating cash flows since inception have been financed through debt and equity funding sources. In
order to remain a going concern and continue the Companys research and development activities,
management intends to seek additional funding. Management is seeking additional financing but there
can be no assurance that management will be successful in any of those efforts.
Table of Contents
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The Company translates non-Euro assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries at the rate of
exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of
exchange throughout the year. Unrealized gains or losses from these translations are reported as a
separate component of comprehensive income. Transaction gains or losses are included in general and
administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The translation adjustments
do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company expects to reinvest the amounts
indefinitely in operations. The Companys reporting currency is the Euro because substantially all
of the Companys activities are conducted in Europe.
CASH
Cash deposits are occasionally in excess of insured amounts. No interest was paid for the
three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue related to the sale of products is recognized when all of the following conditions are
met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or
determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Grant revenue is recognized when the associated costs are incurred.
RECEIVABLES
Receivables are stated at their outstanding principal balances. Management reviews the
collectability of receivables on a periodic basis and determines the appropriate amount of any
allowance. Based on this review procedure, management has determined that the allowance at March
31, 2011 and at December 31, 2010 are sufficient. The Company charges off receivables to the
allowance when management determines that a receivable is not collectible. The Company may retain a
security interest in the products sold.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated over its estimated useful life
on straight-line basis from the date placed in service. Estimated useful lives are usually taken as
three years.
LICENSE CONTRACT
The license contract was acquired as part of the acquisition of Bestewil. It is amortized over
14 years on a straight-line basis.
IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
In-process research and development (referred to as IPR&D) represents the estimated fair value
assigned to research and development projects acquired in a purchased business combination that
have not been completed at the date of acquisition and which have no alternative future use. IPR&D
assets acquired in a business combination are capitalized as indefinite-lived intangible assets.
These assets remain indefinite-lived until the completion or abandonment of the associated research
and development efforts. During the periods prior to completion or abandonment, those acquired
indefinite-lived assets are
Table of Contents
not amortized but are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, and the license contract, are
assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of
the asset may not be recoverable. The impairment testing involves comparing the carrying amount to
the forecasted undiscounted future cash flows generated by that asset. In the event the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows generated by that asset and the
carrying value is not considered recoverable, impairment exists. An impairment loss is measured as
the excess of the assets carrying value over its fair value, calculated using a discounted future
cash flow method. An impairment loss would be recognized in net income in the period that the
impairment occurs.
GOODWILL
Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets
acquired, is carried at cost. Goodwill is not amortized; rather, it is subject to a periodic
assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. Goodwill is assessed for impairment
on an annual basis as of April 1st of each year or more frequently if events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment model prescribes a
two-step method for determining goodwill impairment. In the first step, the Company determines the
fair value of its reporting unit using an enterprise value analysis. If the net book value of its
reporting unit exceeds the fair value, then the second step of the impairment test is performed
which requires allocation of the Companys reporting units fair value to all of its assets and
liabilities using the acquisition method prescribed under authoritative guidance for business
combinations with any residual fair value being allocated to goodwill. An impairment charge will be
recognized only when the implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill is less than its
carrying amount.
CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION
The Company accounts for contingent consideration in a purchase business combination in
accordance with applicable guidance provided within the business combination rules. As part of the
consideration for the Bestewil acquisition, the Company is contractually obligated to pay
additional purchase price consideration upon achievement of certain commercial milestones.
Therefore, the Company is required to update the assumptions at each reporting period, based on new
developments, and record such amounts at fair value until such consideration is satisfied.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
TAXES ON INCOME
The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events
that have been recognized in the Companys financial statements or tax returns. In estimating
future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than
enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates.
The Company reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from
uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated
interest and penalties, if any, are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense,
respectively.
Table of Contents
The Company has not recorded any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or any related
interest and penalties at March 31, 2011 or at December 31, 2010. The Companys United States tax
returns are open to audit for the years ended December 31, 2007 to 2010. The returns for the
Luxembourg subsidiary LUXEMBOURG 6543 S.A., are open to audit for the year ended December 31, 2010.
The returns for the Swiss subsidiary, Mymetics S.A., are open to audit for the years ended December
31, 2007 to 2010. The returns for the Netherlands subsidiaries, Bestewil B.V. and Mymetics B.V.,
are open to audit for the year ended December 31, 2010.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the common period. The weighted
average number of shares (including shares issuable) was 213,963,166 and 196,161,408 for the three
months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Diluted earnings per share takes into
consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially
dilutive securities. Options, warrants and convertible debt were not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive due to net losses incurred.
For the period ended March 31, 2011, the total potential number of shares issuable of 140,082,223
includes potential issuable shares related to warrants, options, and convertible loans. For the
quarter ended March 31, 2010, the total potential number of shares issuable of 103,067,923 includes
83,406,973 potential issuable shares related to convertible loans, 19,218,450 potential issuable
shares related to warrants, and 442,500 potential issuable shares related to outstanding options
granted to employees.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Company has authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock that may be issued in several
series with varying dividend, conversion and voting rights. No preferred shares are issued or
outstanding at March 31, 2011.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Compensation cost for all share-based payments is based on the estimated grant-date fair
value. The Company amortizes stock compensation cost ratably over the requisite service period.
The issuance of common shares for services is recorded at the quoted price of the shares on
the date the shares are issued. No shares were issued in the three months ended March 31, 2011.
200,000 shares were issued to individuals as fee for services rendered in the three months ended
March 31, 2010.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted
accounting principles 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.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the
inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
Level
1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level
2 Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or
indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted
prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or
Table of Contents
can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the assets or liabilities.
Level
3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company generally has the following financial instruments: cash, employee receivables,
other receivables, accounts payable, taxes and social costs payable, acquisition-related contingent
consideration and notes payable. The carrying value of cash, employee receivables, other
receivables, accounts payable, and taxes and social costs payable approximate their fair value
based on the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying value of
acquisition-related contingent consideration is equal to fair value since this liability is
required to be reported at fair value. Due to the unique nature of the notes payable, management
believes it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of these instruments.
CONCENTRATIONS
The Company enters into scientific collaboration agreements with selected partners such as
Pevion Biotech Ltd., a Swiss company that granted Mymetics exclusive licenses to use their virosome
vaccine delivery technology in conjunction with the Companys AIDS and malaria preventive vaccines
under development. Under this agreement, Pevion Biotech is committed to supply the actual Virosomes
and perform their integration with the Companys antigens, which requires proprietary know-how, at
Pevions premises. The agreement includes specific mechanisms to mitigate the risk of losing a key
component of Mymetics vaccines should Pevion become unable to meet its commitment.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Companys general counsel is a member of the Board of Directors. The Company incurred
professional fees to the counsels law firm during the three months ended March 31, 2011, totaling

Note 3. Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration
On April 1, 2009, Mymetics and NIL closed the acquisition of Bestewil Holding B.V.
(Bestewil) from its parent, NIL, under a Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Mymetics
agreed to purchase all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock (the Bestewil Shares) of
Bestewil from its parent, NIL, and all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Virosome
Biologicals B.V. which were held by Bestewil.
Remaining contingent consideration to be paid under the Share Purchase Agreement includes:
| A payment of up to E2,800 in cash in the event of a license agreement being signed by April 1, 2011 with a third party to access Bestewil intellectual property and know-how in the field of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV License); | ||
| A payment of up to E3,000 in cash should a third party commence a Phase III clinical trial by April 1, 2013 for Mymetics Intranasal Influenza Vaccine licensed from Bestewil; | ||
| A payment of 50% of Mymetics net royalties received from a Respiratory Syncytial Virus license (RSV license), payable in cash, maximum amount unlimited; and | ||
| A payment in cash, maximum amount unlimited, of 25% of any net amounts received by Mymetics from a third party Herpes Simplex Virus license (HSV license) based upon Bestewil intellectual property. |
The fair value of the contractual obligations to pay the contingent consideration is
determined based on a risk-adjusted, discounted cash flow approach. This fair value measurement is
based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement
within the fair value hierarchy. The resultant cash flows are discounted using a discount rate of
25%, which the Company believes is appropriate and is representative of a market participant
assumption.
As of March 31, 2011, the Company held a liability for acquisition-related contingent
consideration that is required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following table presents changes to the Companys acquisition-related contingent

contingent consideration did not change.
Note 4. Debt Financing
The Company is focusing its efforts on funding its on-going expenses through high net worth
individuals located in Europe. To date, investors in Switzerland have purchased restricted common
shares at prices which are at a premium to the market price of Mymetics shares, and have introduced
management to other high net worth individuals who have a similar interest in the Companys science
and mission.
In addition to purchasing shares, certain principal shareholders have granted the Company
secured convertible notes (in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code in the State of
Delaware), which have a total carrying value of E28,161 including interest due to date. Interest
incurred on these notes since inception has been added to the principal amounts.

The warrant is valid from July 1, 2010 until June 30, 2013. This warrant has been accounted for by taking its proportional fair value, which was calculated by the Black Scholes methodology using a hundred forty percent historical volatility, a three year expected term, a zero percent dividend yield and a three percent risk free rate. This proportional fair value was accounted for as a debt discount on the E2,200 loan issued on the same date and amortizing that discount over 12 months as interest expense. |
Note 5. Equity Financing
The Company relied on its existing high net worth shareholders until the end of 2010. Collaboration
is ongoing with a reputable private financial organization in order to create further equity
investment by private placement to meet the Companys expenses during the next nine months and
beyond.
On February 4, 2010, Mymetics engaged a US based investment bank to lead the effort of raising
approximately 35 million in a private placement to meet Mymetics capital requirements for
continued development of its vaccine pipeline.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of
Mymetics Corporation for the periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 should be read in conjunction
with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010
and related notes and the description of the Companys business and properties included elsewhere
herein.
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The
statements contained in this report are not purely historical, but are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These forward looking statements concern matters
that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those projected in the forward-looking statements. Words such as may, will, should, could,
expect, plan, anticipate, believe, estimate, predict, potential, continue,
probably or similar words are intended to identify forward looking statements, although not all
forward looking statements contain these words.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity performance or achievements.
Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness
of the forward-looking statements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking
statements after the date hereof to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our
expectations.
Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us which
attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect our business, including without
limitation disclosures made under the captions Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, Risk Factors, Consolidated Financial Statements and
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2010 and, to the extent included therein, our quarterly reports on Form
10-Q filed during fiscal year 2010.
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010
Revenue was E39 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, of which E37 relates to licensing
agreements, and E39 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, of which E38 relates to licensing
agreements. This revenue has been earned by Mymetics BV (the acquired company Bestewil
Holding/Virosome Biological).
Costs and expenses decreased to E1,735 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from E2,078
(-16.5%) for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Research and development expenses decreased to E440 in the current period from E538 (-18.2%)
in the comparative period of 2010. The decrease of R&D is mainly related to no cost for the malaria
vaccine.
General and administrative expenses decreased to E416 in the three months ended March 31, 2011
from E693 (40.0%) in the comparative period of 2010. This was mainly due to a reduction in legal
and investor relation costs incurred in the period ended March 31, 2010 related to the issuance of
3rd party contracts and start up costs for a fund raising program, respectively.
Interest expense increased to E819 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from E591 for the
three months ended March 31, 2010. This was mainly related to the E300
Table of Contents
amortization charge of the debt discount related to the warrant that was issued in conjunction with
a note payable on July 1, 2010, while direct interest charges on notes payable was lower due to the
conversion of a short term note payable into shares of common stock in September 2010.
No adjustment of fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration was required
during the three months ended March 31, 2011.
The Company reported a net loss of E1,700, or E0.01 per share, for the three months ended
March 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of E2,039, or E0.01 per share, for the three months ended
March 31, 2010.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We had cash of E725 at March 31, 2011 compared to E1,811 at December 31, 2010.
We have not generated any material revenues since we commenced our vaccine research and
development business in 2001, and we do not anticipate generating any material revenues on a
sustained basis unless and until a licensing agreement or other commercial arrangement is entered
into with respect to our technology.
As of March 31, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately E55 million, and we
incurred losses of E1,700 in the three month period ending on that date. These losses are
principally associated with the research and development of our vaccine technologies. We expect to
continue to incur expenses in the future for research, development and activities related to the
future licensing of our technologies.
Net cash used in operating activities was (E1,595) for the three month period ended March 31,
2011, compared to (E2,381) for the period ended March 31, 2010.
Investing activities provided cash of E4 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 due to
proceeds from the sale of equipment, as compared to E5 during the three months ended March 31,
2010.
Financing activities provided cash of E510 and E591 for the periods ended March 31, 2011 and
2010, respectively.
Salaries and related payroll costs represent gross salaries for our four directors and five
employees. Under Executive Employment Agreements with our CFO and CSO, and a consulting contract
with our CEO, we pay our executive officers a combined amount of E57 per month. This is exclusive
of our contracts for the consulting services of Professor Marc Girard and Mr. Christian Rochet who
is currently employed by the Company as Senior Advisor to the President.
Mr. Jacques-François Martin is President and Chief Executive Officer of Mymetics Corporation
and Mr. Ronald Kempers is Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. In addition, our
Swiss subsidiary, Mymetics S.A., has on its payroll two assistants to our CFO and CSO,
respectively, as well as one employee performing various administrative services on our behalf.
Mymetics BV has one full time director (CSO) plus two full-time assistants. As of March 31, 2011,
our Luxembourg affiliate had no employees.
The ten member Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) created in 2009, is made up of emminent
intellectuals from around the world with expertise related to the Companys products as follows:-
Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board Dr. Stanley Plotkin, Emeritus Professor Wistar
Institute, University of Pennsylvania, consultant to Sanofi Pasteur, developed the rubella vaccine
in 1960s; worked extensively on the development and application of other vaccines including polio,
rabies, varicella, rotavirus and cytomegalovirus as well as

senior roles at the Epidemic Intelligence Service, U.S. Public Health Service; Aventis Pasteur
(medical and scientific director); and Sanofi Pasteur (executive advisor).
Vice Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board Dr. Marc Girard, has over 20 years of
experience in the HIV-1 research field, past Director of the Mérieux Foundation and a consultant to
the WHO and former Chairman of EuroVac (European Consortium for HIV vaccine).

Monthly fixed and recurring expenses for Property leases of E18 represent the monthly lease
and maintenance payments to unaffiliated third parties for our offices, of which E10 is related to
our executive office located at Route de la Corniche 4, 1066 Epalinges in Switzerland (400 square
meters), and E4 related to Bestewil Holding B.V. and its subsidiary Mymetics B.V operating from a
similar biotechnology campus near Leiden in the Netherlands, where they occupy 100 square meters.
The lease related to the office located at 14, rue de la Colombiere in Nyon (Switzerland) (100
square meters) has been cancelled as of end of February 2011.
Included in professional fees are legal fees paid to outside corporate counsel and audit and
review fees paid to our independent accountants, and fees paid for investor relations.
Cumulative interest expense of E4,475 has been incurred on all of the Companys outstanding
notes and advances (see detailed table in note 4).
We intend to continue to incur additional expenditures during the next 12 months for
additional research and development of our HIV, Respiratory Syncytial Virus and Herpes Simplex
vaccines, while also further developing the R&D at Mymetics BV (Leiden) and Mymetics Corporation
(Epalinges). Additional funding requirements during the next 12 months will arise as we continue to
develop the pipeline of vaccines and move forward in our clinical trials. We expect that funding
for the cost of any clinical trials will be available either from debt or equity financings, donors
and/or potential pharmaceutical partners before we commence the human trials.
In the past we have financed our research and development activities primarily through debt
and equity financings from various parties.
We anticipate our operations will require approximately E6 million until December 31, 2011. To
allow the Company to achieve our business plan, we have engaged Gilford Securities to raise on a
best efforts basis through its selling group up to US$60,000,000 through the sale of convertible
Series A Preferred Stock which has to be authorized by our shareholders through an amendment to our
certificate of incorporation. Under the terms of the letter of engagement with Gilford Securities
dated February 4, 2010, we will (i) pay a cash fee of 8% of the purchase price of the Series A
Preferred Stock sold by Gilford Securities, not including up to US$15,000,000 that we are allowed
to sell to investors which are not introduced by Gilford Securities, (ii) register the shares of
our common stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock within three months of selling a minimum
of US$40,000,000 of Series A Preferred Stock. The proposed Series A Preferred Stock is nonvoting,
convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of US$.50 per share, preferred as to
liquidation only and will not pay any dividend. We will continue to seek to raise the required
capital from donors and/or potential partnerships with major international pharmaceutical and
biotechnology firms. However, there can be no
Table of Contents
assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital on terms satisfactory to us, or at all,
to finance our operations. In the event that we are not able to obtain such additional capital, we
would be required to further restrict or even halt our operations.
RECENT FINANCING ACTIVITIES
To date we have generated no material revenues from our business operations. We are unable to
predict when or if we will be able to generate revenues from licensing our technology or the
amounts expected from such activities. These revenue streams may be generated by us or in
conjunction with collaborative partners or third party licensing arrangements, and may include
provisions for one-time, lump sum payments in addition to ongoing royalty payments or other revenue
sharing arrangements. However, we presently have no commitments for any such payments.
We anticipate using our current funds and those we receive in the future both to meet our
working capital needs and for funding the ongoing research costs associated with our gp41 testing.
Provided we can obtain sufficient financing resources, we expect to continue the development for
our HIV and RSV vaccine in 2011. In accordance with our past strategy, we intend to subcontract
such work to best of class research teams unless institutions such as the US National Institutes
of Health (NIH) decide to conduct such trials at their own expense, which they presently do.
In September 2010 we received an official confirmation from the National Institutes of Health
(NIH) that will provide a supplemental grant directly to the University of California in Davis, to
conduct a newly designed study with our HIV vaccine candidate on non-human primates.
We do not anticipate that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund our cash
requirements through the next twelve months. We do not have enough cash presently on hand, based
upon our current levels of expenditures and anticipated needs during this period, and we will need
additional proceeds from additional equity investments such as private placements under Regulation
D and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. We are working closely with Gilford
Securities, as stated above, to assist us in an effort to generate further equity investments
within the next twelve months. The extent and timing of our future capital requirements will depend
primarily upon the rate of our progress in the research and development of our technologies, our
ability to enter into one or more licensing or partnership agreements with major pharmaceutical
companies, and the results of future clinical trials.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates which could affect our financial
condition and results of operations. We have not entered into derivative contracts for our own
account to hedge against such risk.
INTEREST RATE RISK
Fluctuations in interest rates may affect the fair value of financial instruments. An increase
in market interest rates may increase interest payments and a decrease in market interest rates may
decrease interest payments of such financial instruments. We have no debt obligations which are
sensitive to interest rate fluctuations as all our notes payable have fixed interest rates, as
specified on the individual loan notes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation and supervision of
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and
determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
REMEDIATION OF MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
To address the findings of the Companys subsequent analysis of Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended September 30, 2010, which led to the determination of the existence of a material weakness in
the Companys internal control over financial reporting related to a reduction in the conversion
price of shareholder debt and adjustments to the terms of a stock option, that should have been
recorded as expenses, the Company agreed to rely on a professional and qualified consultant during
the fiscal year 2011 for complex transactions. While management believes that this corrective
action, taken during the first quarter of fiscal 2011, has mitigated the material weakness
described above as of the end of the period covered by this report, testing of the effectiveness
has not yet been completed.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During the period ended March 31, 2011, the new CFO in place has implemented a process to
remediate the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting by engaging a
qualified consultant to aid the Company in the preparation, analysis, documentation and review of
its complex transactions. While management believes that this action taken during the period of
this report, corrected the material weakness in the Companys internal control over financial
reporting as described herein, testing of the effectiveness has not yet been completed.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, do not expect that our disclosure controls or our
internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control
system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. The design of a control system must
reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be
considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control
systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error
or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the
company have been detected.
These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be
faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be
circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by
management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on
certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any
design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.
Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the
degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Neither we, nor our wholly owned subsidiaries 6543 Luxembourg S.A., Mymetics S.A., Bestewil
Holding B.V. nor its subsidiary Mymetics B.V. are presently involved in any litigation incident to
our business except as follows:
Pursuant to our indemnification obligations under Delaware law, our charter and the consulting
agreements with Christian Rochet and Ernst Luebke, respectively, we have paid a judgment for
173,000 entered against these two former officers and directors entered in November 2010 in a case
styled Luebke Rochet / Serres ref. 120494. The lawsuit was brought in the Tribunal de Commerce
in Lyon, France, by our former CEO, Dr. Pierre-Francois Serres, who sued Messrs. Rochet and Luebke
for an alleged breach of a shareholders agreement in 1998. Mr. Serres brought this case against
Messrs. Rochet and Luebke following the dismissal of the case he filed against us for an alleged
unlawful termination of Mr. Serres by Messrs. Rochet and Luebke in 2003. We are appealing the
decision.
