Through this filing, the Company is also updating its risk factors from those described in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007 and in its subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following are the updated risk factors related to the Company’s business, capital structure and financial results and its intellectual property and other legal matters, in substantially the form included in the prospectus supplement the Company filed on June 23, 2008.

Risks Related to our Business

We have incurred net losses since inception, expect to incur increasingly large losses in the future as we expand our development activities, and may never achieve revenues or profitability. We are a development stage company and have never recognized any revenue from the sale of products or any other source. We have not completed development of any of our product candidates, and do not expect that any of our present or future product candidates will be commercially available for a number of years, if at all. We have incurred losses since inception and expect to continue to incur substantial and increasing losses for the foreseeable future as we increase our spending to finance clinical and preclinical studies of our existing product candidates, the evaluation, acquisition and development of additional product candidates, additional headcount, and the costs associated with operating as a public company. Our operating losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse impact on our working capital, total assets and stockholders’ equity. We do not know when or if we will ever generate revenue or become profitable because of the significant uncertainties with respect to our ability to generate revenue from any of our current or future product candidates.

Because we depend on financing from third parties for our operations, our business may fail if such financing becomes unavailable or is offered on commercially unreasonable terms. To date, we have financed all of our operations through borrowings and the sale of our equity securities. We will require significant additional capital to develop our existing product candidates, and to acquire and develop other product candidates. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

• the scope and results of our preclinical and clinical trials;

- 1 -

• whether we experience delays in our preclinical and clinical development programs, or slower than anticipated product development;

• whether we identify other product candidates that we wish to acquire, and the costs of acquiring and developing those product candidates;

• whether we are able to enter into collaborative partnerships with regard to any of our product candidates, and the terms of any such collaboration;

• the timing and requirements of, and the costs involved in, conducting studies required to obtain regulatory approvals for our product candidates from the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory agencies;

• the availability of third parties to perform the key development tasks on our product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical studies and manufacturing the products to be tested in those studies, and the associated costs of those services;

• the availability and cost of raw materials required to manufacture products for testing in our preclinical and clinical studies; and

• the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending the validity of, and enforcing, patent claims and other patent-related costs, including litigation costs and the results of such litigation.

We may not be able to obtain additional financing when we need it on acceptable terms or at all. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to continue developing our product candidates, acquire or develop additional product candidates or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. For these reasons, any inability to raise additional capital when we require it would seriously harm our business.

Our business strategy depends on our ability to identify and acquire additional product candidates which we may never acquire or identify for reasons that may not be in our control, or are otherwise unforeseen or unforeseeable to us. A key component of our business strategy is to diversify our product development risk by identifying, acquiring and developing additional product candidates. However, we may not be able to identify promising new technologies. In addition, the competition to acquire promising biomedical technologies is fierce, and many of our competitors are large, multinational pharmaceutical, biotechnology and

- 2 -

medical device companies with considerably more financial, development and commercialization resources and experience than we have. Thus, even if we succeed in identifying promising technologies, we may not be able to acquire rights to them on acceptable terms or at all. If we are unable to identify and acquire new technologies, we will be unable to diversify our product risk. We believe that any such failure would have a significant negative impact on our prospects because the risk of failure of any particular development program in the pharmaceutical field is high.

Because we depend on our management to oversee the execution of development plans for our existing product candidates and to identify and acquire promising new product candidates, the loss of any of our managers would harm our business. Our future success depends upon the continued services of our executive officers. We are particularly dependent on the continued services of David Hung, M.D., our president and chief executive officer and a member of our board of directors. Dr. Hung identified all of our existing product candidates for acquisition, and has primary responsibility for identifying and evaluating other potential product candidates. We believe that Dr. Hung’s services in this capacity would be difficult to replace. None of our executive officers is bound by an employment agreement for any specific term, and they may terminate their employment at any time. In addition, we do not have “key person” life insurance policies covering any of our executive officers. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers could delay the development of our existing product candidates, and delay or preclude the identification and acquisition of new product candidates, either of which events could harm our business.

Our reliance on third parties for the operation of our business may result in material delays, cost overruns and/or quality deficiencies in our development programs. We rely on outside vendors to perform key product development tasks, such as conducting preclinical and clinical studies and manufacturing the product candidates to be tested in those studies. In order to manage our business successfully, we will need to identify, engage and properly manage qualified external vendors who will perform these development activities. For example, we need to monitor the activities of our vendors closely to ensure that they are performing their tasks correctly, on time, on budget and in compliance with strictly enforced regulatory standards. Our ability to identify and retain key vendors with the requisite knowledge is critical to our business and the failure to do so could have a material adverse impact on our business. Because all of our key vendors perform services for other clients in addition to us, we also need to ensure that they are appropriately prioritizing our projects. If we fail to manage our key vendors well, we could incur material delays, cost overruns or quality deficiencies in our development programs, as well as other material disruptions to our business.

Risks Related to our Product Development Candidates

Our product candidates require extensive, time consuming and expensive preclinical and clinical testing to establish safety and efficacy. We may never attract partners for our technologies or receive marketing approval in any jurisdiction. The research and development of pharmaceuticals is an extremely risky industry. Only a small percentage of product candidates that enter the development process ever receive marketing approval. Except for Dimebon’s approval in Russia as an antihistamine, which is not a commercially attractive opportunity for us, none of our product candidates is currently approved for sale anywhere in the world, and none of them may ever receive such approval. The process of conducting the preclinical and clinical testing required to establish safety and efficacy and obtain marketing approval is expensive, uncertain and takes many years. If we are unable to complete preclinical or clinical trials of any of our current or future product candidates, or if the results of these trials are not satisfactory to convince regulatory authorities or potential partners of their safety or efficacy, we will not be able to attract partners or obtain marketing approval for any products. Furthermore, even if we or our potential partners are able to obtain marketing approvals for any of our product candidates, those approvals may be for indications that are not as broad as desired, or may contain other limitations that would adversely affect our ability to generate revenue from sales of those products. If this occurs, our business will be materially harmed and our ability to generate revenue will be severely impaired.

Positive results in any of our clinical trials, including our first pivotal clinical trial of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease, may not be predictive of future clinical trial results. Even where we achieve positive results in clinical trials, including our first pivotal clinical trial of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease conducted in Russia, we do not know whether those results will be predictive of success in subsequent clinical trials, including the Phase 3 Alzheimer’s disease clinical trial in the United States, Europe and South America that we initiated in June 2008. Product candidates in clinical trials, including Phase 3 clinical trials, often fail to show the desired safety and efficacy traits despite having progressed successfully through prior stages of preclinical and clinical testing. In addition, we do not know whether early results from any of our ongoing clinical trials, including the early results of our Phase 1-2 clinical trial of MDV3100 in hormone-refractory prostate cancer, will be predictive of final results of any such trial.

Our industry is highly regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and comparable foreign regulatory agencies. We must comply with extensive, strictly enforced regulatory requirements in order to develop and seek marketing approval for any of our product candidates. Before we or our potential partners can obtain regulatory approval for the sale of our product candidates, they must be subjected to extensive preclinical and clinical testing to demonstrate their safety and efficacy for humans. The preclinical and clinical trials of any product candidates that we develop must comply with regulation by numerous federal, state and local government authorities in the United States, principally the FDA, and by similar agencies in other countries. We will be required to obtain and maintain an effective investigational new drug application to conduct human clinical trials in the United States and must obtain and maintain regulatory approval before proceeding to successive phases of our clinical trials. Securing

- 4 -

FDA approval requires the submission of extensive preclinical and clinical data and supporting information for each therapeutic indication to establish the product candidate’s safety and efficacy for its intended use. It takes years to complete the testing of a new drug or medical device, and development delays and/or failure can occur at any stage of testing. Any of our present and future clinical trials may be delayed or halted due to any of the following:

• any preclinical test or clinical trial may fail to produce safety and efficacy results satisfactory to the FDA or foreign regulatory authorities;

• preclinical and clinical data can be interpreted in different ways, which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval;

• negative or inconclusive results from a preclinical test or clinical trial or adverse medical events during a clinical trial could cause a preclinical study or clinical trial to be repeated or a program to be terminated, even if other studies or trials relating to the program are successful;

• the FDA or foreign regulatory authorities can place a clinical hold on a trial if, among other reasons, it finds that patients enrolled in the trial are or would be exposed to an unreasonable and significant risk of illness or injury;

• the FDA might not approve the clinical processes or facilities that we utilize, or the processes or facilities of our consultants, including without limitation the vendors who will be manufacturing drug substance and drug product for us or any potential collaborators;

• any regulatory approval we or any potential collaborators ultimately obtain may be limited or subject to restrictions or post-approval commitments that render the product not commercially viable; and

• we may encounter delays or rejections based on changes in FDA policies or the policies of foreign regulatory authorities during the period in which we develop a drug or the period required for review of any new drug application.

Furthermore, as is typically the case at this stage of the regulatory review process, the FDA has not yet performed an in-depth review of Medivation’s preclinical and clinical data. Any views the FDA has expressed to Medivation thus remain subject to change, including the view that the company’s previously completed trial conducted in Russia can be used as one of the two pivotal studies required to support the approval of Dimebon to treat mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease, as long as a significant proportion of the sites in the confirmatory Phase 3 trial are located in the United States.

- 5 -

Enrollment of patients in clinical trials is often an expensive and time-consuming process, and could result in significant delays, cost overruns, or both, in our product development activities. We may encounter delays in enrolling a sufficient number of patients to complete our clinical trials. Patient enrollment depends on many factors, including the size of the patient population, the nature of the trial protocol, the proximity of patients to clinical sites and the eligibility criteria for the study. In particular, we intend to conduct “monotherapy” studies of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease patients—studies in which patients in the placebo group do not receive treatment with any approved Alzheimer’s disease drugs. Because approved Alzheimer’s disease drugs are widely available in the United States and Europe, we believe that patient accrual in Dimebon monotherapy studies, including our confirmatory pivotal Phase 3 trial of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease, may be particularly time-consuming. Delays in planned patient enrollment may result in increased costs, program delays or both, which could have a harmful effect on our ability to develop Dimebon or any other product candidates.

We have not yet partnered any of our product development candidates with third party collaborators, and we cannot control whether we will be able to do so on favorable terms or at all. Our business strategy relies in part on potentially partnering successful product development candidates with larger companies to complement our internal development and commercialization efforts. For example, because Alzheimer’s disease is a large market requiring a large primary care sales force, we are currently seeking a commercial partner for Dimebon in that indication. We also expect to seek ex-US commercial partners for our product candidates. We may also be required to enter into collaborative relationships to complement our internal efforts, whether in research and development, manufacturing or commercialization, and/or to generate necessary financing. We have not entered into any such collaborations to date. It may be difficult for us to find third parties that are willing to enter into such transactions on acceptable economic terms or at all. We also will be competing with many other companies as we seek partners for our product candidates, and we may not be able to compete successfully against those other firms. If we are not able to enter into collaboration transactions for our product development candidates, we would be required to undertake and fund further development, clinical trials, manufacturing and commercialization activities solely at our own expense and risk. If we are unable to finance and/or successfully execute those expensive activities, our business and prospects would be materially and adversely harmed for that reason.

If we enter into collaboration transactions, we will be dependent upon our partners, and we may be unable to prevent them from taking actions that may be harmful to our business or inconsistent with our business strategy. Any collaboration agreements we may enter into with respect to our product development candidates are likely to provide us with little or no control over the

- 6 -

activities of our partners. For example, future partners, if any, are likely to have the right to terminate the collaboration at their option. Our partners may decide to terminate a development program under circumstances where we might have continued such a program, or may be unable or unwilling to pursue ongoing development and commercialization activities as quickly as we would prefer. Any partner may be unwilling or unable to fulfill its obligations to us, including its development and commercialization responsibilities in respect of our product candidates. Our partners will likely have significant discretion in determining the efforts and level of resources that they dedicate to the development and commercialization of our product candidates relative to their other products and product candidates. In addition, our collaborators may develop and commercialize, either alone or with others, products and services that are similar to or directly competitive with the products that are the subject of the collaboration with us.

We expect that the financial returns to us in any collaboration agreement would depend in large part on the achievement of development and/or commercialization milestones on, and royalties, co-promotion fees or other payments based upon sales of, our product candidates. Therefore, our success, and any associated financial returns to us and our investors, will depend on the ability of any of our future collaborators to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals from the FDA and other foreign regulatory agencies and successfully commercialize our product candidates. We may also be dependent on our collaborators for the commercial scale manufacture, distribution, sales, marketing and reimbursement of our product candidates. These collaborators may not be successful. If any future collaborator terminates its collaboration with us or fails to perform or satisfy its obligations to us, the development, regulatory approval or commercialization of our product candidate would be delayed or may not occur and our business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected for that reason.

If our product candidates cannot be manufactured in a cost-effective manner and in compliance with current good manufacturing practices and other applicable regulatory standards, they will not be commercially successful. All pharmaceutical and medical device products in the U.S., Europe and other countries must be manufactured in strict compliance with current good manufacturing practices, or cGMP, and other applicable regulatory standards. Establishing a cGMP-compliant process to manufacture pharmaceutical and medical device products involves significant time, cost and uncertainty. Furthermore, in order to be commercially viable, any such process would have to yield product on a cost-effective basis, using raw materials that are commercially available on acceptable terms. We are currently refining our manufacturing process for Dimebon to avoid use of a chemical that is difficult to source and handle, thus rendering it suboptimal for large-scale manufacturing. This process development and associated scale-up work is underway, and we do not anticipate any manufacturing-related issues to delay any of our planned development milestones. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to complete this work in a timely manner or at all. Furthermore, neither Dimebon nor MDV3100 has been manufactured at commercial-scale under cGMP-compliant conditions. We thus face the risk that commercial-scale cGMP manufacture of Dimebon and/or MDV3100 would not be possible, on a cost-effective basis or at all, which would materially and adversely affect the value of these programs.

- 7 -

Any of our product development candidates that receive marketing approval will face significant competition from other approved products, including generic products and products with more convenient dosing regimens, and other products in development. The biopharmaceutical industry is intensely competitive in general. Furthermore, our business strategy is to target large unmet medical needs, and those markets are even more highly competitive. For example, there are four drugs currently marketed to treat Alzheimer’s disease. These drugs are all dosed once or twice per day, while Dimebon was dosed three times per day in our first pivotal clinical trial and also will be dosed three times per day in our confirmatory Phase 3 pivotal clinical trial. This difference in dosing regimen may make Dimebon less competitive than alternative Alzheimer’s disease drugs if Dimebon receives marketing approval based on a thrice per day dosing regimen. In addition, all four currently approved Alzheimer’s disease drugs are expected to lose patent protection prior to, or shortly after, Dimebon’s potential launch. Such loss of patent protection would likely result in the entry of generic competition for, and significant reductions in the commercial pricing of, those approved drugs. This development would put significant competitive pressure on the prices we or our potential partners could charge for Dimebon should it ever be approved. Companies marketing currently approved Alzheimer’s disease therapeutics include some of the world’s largest and most experienced pharmaceutical companies, such as Pfizer Inc., Novartis AG and Johnson & Johnson. There are also dozens of additional small molecule and recombinant protein candidates in development targeting the clinical indications we are pursuing, particularly Alzheimer’s disease and HRPC, including compounds already in Phase 3 clinical trials. One or more such compounds may be approved in each of our target indications before any of our product candidates could potentially be approved. Most, if not all, of these competing drug development programs are being conducted by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies with considerably greater financial resources, human resources and experience than ours. Any of our product candidates that receives regulatory approval will face significant competition from both approved drugs, as well as from any of the drugs currently under development that may subsequently be approved. Bases upon which our product candidates would have to compete successfully include efficacy, safety, price and cost-effectiveness. In addition, our product candidates would have to compete against these other drugs with several different categories of decision makers, including physicians, patients, government and private third-party payors, technology assessment groups and patient advocacy organizations. Even if one of our product candidates is approved, we cannot guarantee that we or any of our potential partners will be able to compete successfully on any of these bases. Any future product candidates that we may subsequently acquire will face similar competitive pressures. If we or our potential partners cannot compete successfully on any of the bases described above, our business will not succeed.

- 8 -

Any of our product candidates that is eventually approved for sale may not be commercially successful if not widely-covered and appropriately reimbursed by third-party payors. Third-party payors, including public insurers such as Medicare and Medicaid and private insurers, pay for a large share of health care products and services consumed in the United States. In Europe, Canada and other major international markets, third-party payors also pay for a significant portion of health care products and services, and many of those countries have nationalized health care systems in which the government pays for all such products and services and must approve product pricing. Even if approved by the FDA and other regulatory agencies, our product candidates are unlikely to achieve commercial success unless they are covered widely by third-party payors and reimbursed at a rate which generates an acceptable commercial return for us and any collaborative partner. It is increasingly difficult to obtain coverage and acceptable reimbursement levels from third-party payors, and we may be unable to achieve these objectives. Achieving coverage and acceptable reimbursement levels typically involves negotiating with individual payors, and is a time-consuming and costly process. In addition, we would face competition in such negotiations from other approved drugs against which we compete, and the marketers of such other drugs are likely to be significantly larger than us and therefore enjoy significantly more negotiating leverage. This competition will be particularly intense for Dimebon, if approved to treat Alzheimer’s disease, because all four currently marketed Alzheimer’s disease drugs are expected to lose patent protection prior to, or shortly following, Dimebon’s potential commercial launch, and thus are likely to be available at generic price levels. Our commercial prospects would be further weakened if payors approved coverage for our product candidates only as second- or later-line treatments, or if they placed any of our product candidates in tiers requiring unacceptably high patient co-payments. Failure to achieve acceptable coverage and reimbursement levels could materially harm our business.

We may be subject to product liability or other litigation, which could result in an inefficient allocation of our critical resources, delay the implementation of our business strategy and, if successful, materially and adversely harm our business and financial condition as a result of the costs of liabilities that may be imposed thereby. Our business exposes us to the risk of product liability claims that is inherent in the development of pharmaceuticals. If any of our product candidates harms people, or is alleged to be harmful, we may be subject to costly and damaging product liability claims brought against us by clinical trial participants, consumers, health care providers, potential corporate partners or others. We have product liability insurance covering our ongoing clinical trials, but do not have insurance for any of our other development activities. If we are unable to obtain insurance at an acceptable cost or otherwise protect against potential product liability claims, we may be exposed to significant litigation costs and liabilities, which may materially and adversely affect our business and financial position. If we are sued for injuries allegedly caused by any of our product candidates, our litigation costs and liability could exceed our total assets and our ability to pay. In addition, we may from time to time become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of our business.

- 9 -

Any litigation to which we are subject could require significant involvement of our senior management and may divert management’s attention from our business and operations. Litigation costs or an adverse result in any litigation that may arise from time to time may adversely impact our operating results or financial condition.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

Intellectual property protection for our product candidates is crucial to our business, and is subject to a significant degree of legal risk—particularly in the life sciences industry. The success of our business will depend in part on our obtaining and maintaining intellectual property protection—primarily patent protection—of our technologies and product candidates, as well as successfully defending these patents against third-party challenges. We and our potential future collaborators will only be able to protect our technologies and product candidates from unauthorized use by third parties to the extent that valid and enforceable patents or trade secrets cover them. Furthermore, the degree of future protection of our proprietary rights is uncertain because legal means afford only limited protection and may not adequately protect our rights or permit us or our potential future collaborators to gain or keep our competitive advantage.

The patent positions of life sciences companies can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions for which important legal principles remain unresolved. Further, changes in either the patent laws or in interpretations of patent laws in the United States or other countries may diminish the value of our intellectual property. Accordingly, we cannot predict the breadth of claims that may be granted or enforced in our patents or in third-party patents that we have licensed. For example:

• we or our licensors might not have been the first to make the inventions covered by each of our pending patent applications and issued patents;

• we or our licensors might not have been the first to file patent applications for these inventions;

• others may independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate any of our technologies;

• it is possible that none of our pending patent applications or the pending patent applications of our licensors will result in issued patents;

• our issued patents and future issued patents, or those of our licensors, may not provide a basis for commercially viable products, may not provide us with any competitive advantages, or may be challenged by third parties and invalidated; and

- 10 -

• we may not develop additional proprietary technologies or product candidates that are patentable.

Our existing and any future patent rights may not adequately protect any of our product candidates, which could prevent us from ever generating any revenues or profits. We cannot guarantee that any of our pending or future patent applications will mature into issued patents, or that any of our current or future issued patents will adequately protect our product candidates from competitors. For example, there is a large body of prior art, including multiple issued patents and published patent applications, disclosing molecules in the same chemical class as our MDV300 series compounds. Since our MDV300 series compounds include approximately 170 specific molecules, we expect that some members of this series may not be patentable in light of this prior art, or may infringe the claims of patents presently issued or issued in the future. Furthermore, we also cannot guarantee that any of our present or future issued patents will not be challenged by third parties, or that they will withstand any such challenge. If we are not able to obtain adequate protection for, or defend, the intellectual property position of our technologies and product candidates, then we may not be able to attract collaborators to acquire or partner our development programs. Further, even if we can obtain protection for and defend the intellectual property position of our technologies and product candidates, we or any of our potential future collaborators still may not be able to exclude competitors from developing or marketing competing drugs. Should this occur, we and our potential future collaborators may not generate any revenues or profits from our product candidates.

We could become subject to litigation or other challenges regarding intellectual property rights, which could divert management attention, cause us to incur significant costs, prevent us from selling or using the challenged technology and/or subject us to competition by lower priced generic products. In recent years, there has been significant litigation in the U.S. and elsewhere involving pharmaceutical patents and other intellectual property rights. In particular, generic pharmaceutical manufacturers have been very aggressive in attacking the validity of patents held by proprietary pharmaceutical companies, especially if these patents are commercially significant. If any of our present or future product candidates succeed, we may face challenges to our existing or future patents. For example, in the prosecution of our issued U.S. patents claiming the use of Dimebon and certain related compounds to treat neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, the prior owners missed a filing deadline with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office, or PTO, which resulted in the patent application being deemed abandoned. The prior owners petitioned the PTO to revive the patent application alleging that missing the deadline was unintentional, and the PTO approved the petition and issued the patent. However, as with any other decision the PTO makes, this decision could be challenged in subsequent litigation in an attempt to invalidate this issued U.S. patent and any other U.S. patent that may

- 11 -

issue based on the same patent application. If a generic pharmaceutical company or other third party were able to successfully invalidate any of our present or future patents, any of our product candidates that may ultimately receive marketing approval could face additional competition from lower priced generic products that would result in significant price and revenue erosion and have a material adverse impact on the commercial viability of the affected product candidate(s).

In the future, we may be a party to litigation to protect our intellectual property or as a result of an alleged infringement of others’ intellectual property. These claims and any resulting lawsuit, if successful, could subject us to significant liability for damages and invalidation, or a narrowing of the scope, of our proprietary rights. These lawsuits, regardless of their success, would likely be time-consuming and expensive to litigate and resolve and would divert management time and attention. Any potential intellectual property litigation also could force us to do one or more of the following:

• discontinue our products that use the challenged intellectual property; or

• obtain from the owner of the infringed intellectual property right a license to sell or use the relevant technology, which license may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all.

If we are forced to take any of these actions, our business may be seriously harmed. Although we carry general liability insurance, our insurance does not cover potential claims of this type.

In addition, our patents and patent applications, or those of our licensors, could face other challenges, such as interference proceedings, opposition proceedings and re-examination proceedings. Any such challenge, if successful, could result in the invalidation of, or in a narrowing of the scope of, any such patents and patent applications. Any such challenges, regardless of their success, would likely be time-consuming and expensive to defend and resolve, and would divert management time and attention.

We may in the future initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights to protect these rights or to determine the scope and validity of our proprietary rights or the proprietary rights of competitors. These claims could result in costly litigation and the diversion of our technical and management personnel, and we may not prevail in making these claims.

We may need to obtain licenses of third-party technology that may not be available to us or are available only on commercially unreasonable terms, and which may cause us to operate our business in a more costly or otherwise adverse manner that was not anticipated. From time to time we may be required to license technology from third parties to develop our existing and future product candidates. For example, in our industry there are a large number of issued patents

- 12 -

and published patent applications with claims to treating diseases generically through use of any product that produces one or more biological activities—such as inhibiting a specific biological target. We are aware of several such issued patents relating to Alzheimer’s disease, and expect to continue to encounter such patents relating to other diseases targeted by our present and future product candidates. We have not conducted experiments to analyze whether, and we have no evidence that, any of our product candidates produce the specific biological activities covered in any of the issued patents or published patent applications of which we are presently aware. We have not sought to acquire licenses to any such patents. In addition, the commercial scale manufacturing processes that we are developing for our product candidates may require licenses to third party technology. Should we be required to obtain licenses to any third-party technology, including any such patents based on biological activities or required to manufacture our product candidates, such licenses may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain any third-party license required to develop any of our product candidates could cause us to abandon any related development efforts, which could seriously harm our business and operations.

We may become involved in disputes with potential future collaborators over intellectual property ownership, and publications by our research collaborators and scientific advisors could impair our ability to obtain patent protection or protect our proprietary information, which, in either case, could have a significant impact on our business. Inventions discovered under research, material transfer or other such collaborative agreements may become jointly owned by us and the other party to such agreements in some cases, and the exclusive property of either party in other cases. Under some circumstances, it may be difficult to determine who owns a particular invention, or whether it is jointly owned, and disputes could arise regarding ownership of those inventions. These disputes could be costly and time consuming, and an unfavorable outcome could have a significant adverse effect on our business if we were not able to protect or license rights to these inventions. In addition, our research collaborators and scientific advisors generally have contractual rights to publish our data and other proprietary information, subject to our prior review. Publications by our research collaborators and scientific advisors containing such information, either with our permission or in contravention of the terms of their agreements with us, may impair our ability to obtain patent protection or protect our proprietary information, which could significantly harm our business.

Trade secrets may not provide adequate protection for our business and technology. We also rely on trade secrets to protect our technology, especially where we believe patent protection is not appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. While we use reasonable efforts to protect our trade secrets, our or our potential collaborators’ employees, consultants, contractors or scientific and other advisors may unintentionally or willfully disclose our information to competitors. If we were to enforce a claim that a third party had illegally obtained and was using our trade secrets, our enforcement

efforts would be expensive and time consuming, and the outcome would be unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States are sometimes less willing to protect trade secrets. Moreover, if our competitors independently develop equivalent knowledge, methods or know-how, it will be more difficult or impossible for us to enforce our rights and our business could be harmed.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock

Our stock price may be volatile, and our stockholders’ investment in our stock could decline in value. The market prices for our securities and those of other life sciences companies have been highly volatile and may continue to be highly volatile in the future. The following factors, in addition to other risk factors described in this Report, may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock:

• the receipt or failure to receive the additional funding necessary to conduct our business;

• the progress and success of preclinical studies and clinical trials of our product candidates conducted by us or our future collaborative partners or licensees, if any;

• selling by existing stockholders and short-sellers;

• announcements of technological innovations or new commercial products by our competitors or us;

• developments concerning proprietary rights, including patents;

• developments concerning any future collaborations;

• publicity regarding us, our product candidates or those of our competitors, including research reports published by securities analysts;

• regulatory developments in the United States and foreign countries;

• litigation;

• economic and other external factors or other disaster or crisis; and

• period-to-period fluctuations in financial results.

- 14 -

We do not intend to pay regular dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. We do not expect for the foreseeable future to pay regular dividends on our common stock. Any future determination to pay dividends on or repurchase shares of our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other factors, our success in completing sales or partnerships of our programs, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions and applicable law.

Our principal stockholders exert substantial influence over us and may exercise their control in a manner adverse to your interests. Certain stockholders and their affiliates own a substantial amount of our outstanding common stock. Please refer to Item 11: “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters” in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007 for more information. These stockholders may have the power to direct our affairs and be able to determine the outcome of certain matters submitted to stockholders for approval. Because a limited number of persons controls us, transactions could be difficult or impossible to complete without the support of those persons. Subject to applicable law, it is possible that these persons will exercise control over us in a manner adverse to your interests.

Provisions of our charter documents, our stockholder rights plan and Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if the offer may be considered beneficial by our stockholders. Provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay, deter or prevent a change in control. The anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law impose various impediments to the ability of a third party to acquire control of us, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our existing stockholders. In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless its application has been waived, provides certain default anti-takeover protections in connection with transactions between the company and an “interested stockholder” of the company. Generally, Section 203 prohibits stockholders who, alone or together with their affiliates and associates, own more than 15% of the subject company from engaging in certain business combinations for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder of such subject company without approval of the board or 66 ²/3 % of the independent stockholders. Our board of directors has also adopted a stockholder rights plan, or “poison pill,” which would significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer. Additionally, provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws could deter, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring us, even if doing so would benefit our stockholders, including without limitation, the authority of the board of directors to issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock with such terms as the board of directors may determine.

Such funds shall be held by the Company on behalf of the Investor until the Closing shall have occurred, as determined by the Company, at which time such funds will be deemed to have been delivered to the Company, and in the event the Closing does not occur by June 30, 2008, the Company shall return such funds to such Investor.

4.2 If the Investor is outside the United States, it will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers Shares or has in its possession or distributes any offering material, in all cases at its own expense.

4.3(a) The Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and (b) this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such

enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except as to the enforceability of any rights to indemnification or contribution that may be violative of the public policy underlying any law, rule or regulation (including any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation).

4.4 The Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement, the Prospectus or any other materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Shares.

4.5 Since the date on which the Company first contacted such Investor about the Offering, it has not engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities). Each Investor covenants that it will not engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including Short Sales) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed. Each Investor agrees that it will not use any of the Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement to cover any short position in the Common Stock if doing so would be in violation of applicable securities laws. For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, whether or not against the box, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sales contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

10. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
