Item 5. Other Events

As reported in form 8-K filed on August 8, 2001, Cytomedix, Inc. (the "Company"), filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court of the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division (Case No. 01- 27610). The Court has named the Company as debtor in possession and the Company is authorized to continue to operate its business. The Company failed to file a 10-QSB for the second quarter of 2001. After such quarter had ended, a group of shareholders solicited support to remove the then-existing board of directors and to replace them with a new slate of directors. The new directors were recognized on October 16, 2001, by the Court and this event was reported on a form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 17, 2001. Since that time, the Company has not been able to adequately prepare a 10-QSB for the second or for the third quarter. The Company will file quarterly reports for the second and third quarters as soon as the new management can prepare accurate financials for these periods.

The Company is currently filing with the Bankruptcy Court its monthly Operating Reports. Until such time as the reports required under the Securities Exchange Act can be prepared and filed, the Company will file its Operating Reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, each under the cover of a Form 8-K.

The Company filed its Operating Report with the Bankruptcy Court for the month ending December, 2001, on February 13, 2002. This Operating Report is provided under Item 7 of this Form 8-K.

The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Operating Report. The Operating Report contains unaudited information. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor, that the Operating Report is complete. Also, the Operating Report does not contain all of the information which would be reported under the required report under the Securities Exchange Act. Furthermore, the period covered by the Operating Report is shorter than the period that which would be covered by the required report under the Securities Exchange Act.

Actual results for such periods may differ materially from the information contained in the Operating Report, and the Company undertakes no obligations to update or revise its Operating Reports.
