Immunotherapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") is a development stage company which was organized to engage in research, development and commercialization of immunopharmaceutical agents for the treatment of cancer through macrophage activation. The Company has developed two principal products, known as ImmTher(R) and Theramide(TM), which are or have been undergoing clinical trials on human patients. ImmTher(R) has been under research and development by the Company since October 1985 and Theramide(TM) has been under development since April 1990. The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company's principal executive office is located at 3233 Fifteenth Street South, Fargo, North Dakota 58104 and its telephone number is (701) 232-9575. MACROPHAGE ACTIVATION The body's own immune response to malignancy involves a complex of multiple mechanisms by which the body is able to recognize and destroy a malignant cell. The recognition of a malignant cell involves the identification of one or more new or unique characteristics on the tumor cell surface. A number of mechanisms exist for the recognition and destruction of the malignant cell. One major mechanism of the destruction of tumor cells involves the recognition and destruction of malignant cells by cells found in the blood and tissues. These cells are referred to as monocytes, if found in the blood, or macrophages, if found in tissues. Such cells normally recognize and bind in a reversible and nontoxic manner to a large number of different malignant cells. A monocyte or macrophage under the influence of drugs or lymphokines (substances produced by certain lymphocytes which influence other cells) become more active in the destruction of malignant cells and are referred to as "activated macrophages." Such activated macrophages bind strongly and irreversibly to malignant cells and secrete locally substances which kill the malignant cell. A number of drugs and biologicals are capable of activating macrophages. Two very potent biologicals which activate macrophages are types of mycobacterial organisms related to tuberculosis and substances, known as endotoxins or lipopolysaccharides, produced by a number of bacteria. Certain 2 portions of the mycobacteria, specifically the outer cell wall, are potent agents for activating macrophages. A specific portion of the mycobacterial cell wall, known as muramyl dipeptide, has been shown to represent the minimum chemical structure required for macrophage activation. This material has been of limited clinical use however because of its toxicity and short duration of action. For efficient macrophage activation, it is helpful to have an agent which is easily incorporated into the macrophage and persists for a prolonged period of time. One approach which has been used is to entrap the agents in oil droplets. More recently the use of liposome vesicals has been shown to be an effective method for delivery of such agents to the macrophage. Liposome vesicles are composed of natural or synthetic lipids which are integral components of the cell membrane surrounding every cell of living organisms. Liposomes are man-made membrane like spheres composed of these lipids which can be engineered to entrap drugs and biologicals within them or between layers of the sphere. Depending on their composition, they can be engineered to improve delivery of immunotherapeutic agents to the monocyte/macrophage. IMMTHER(R) The Company is engaged in research and development into disaccharide peptide based compounds. The compounds, intended for use in immunopharmaceutical agents, activate macrophages and are believed by management to be potentially efficacious in treating cancer. On March 16, 1988, the Company filed an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) with the FDA relating to one proposed product, referred to by the Company as ImmTher(R), and thereafter conducted a Phase I clinical study intended primarily to establish the safety of ImmTher(R) by determining toxicity and dosage levels which study was substantially completed in August 1989. In the Phase I study, twelve patients were treated with the drug at four different dosage levels. On the basis of these studies, the Company has developed protocols for use of the drug in Phase II studies intended to determine the efficacy of the drug. In the Phase I study, although not intended for this purpose, three patients demonstrated improvement. The Phase II studies are intended to obtain additional data to determine the efficacy of the drug. Individual Phase II studies are conducted in select groups of patients using the drug at a given dose level and schedule. Each such Phase II study is expected to include up to 30 patients and is undertaken by independent sites and investigators under the Company's supervision. On the basis of its Phase I results and using a weekly dose schedule, the Company recently completed at the 3 University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, a Phase II trial of ImmTher(R) given to previously untreated patients with surgically resected colorectal cancer which has spread to the liver. The Company believes treatment with ImmTher(R) is more beneficial given prior to any chemotherapy which frequently results in a suppression of the immune system. The results of the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center phase II trial, while demonstrating laboratory evidence of macrophage activation and arresting the disease for a period of time in three of the thirteen patients, did not provide sufficient evidence of efficacy to proceed to a phase III trial of the drug as a single agent for the treatment of overt disease. During the past year the Company completed a study in eight patients with metastatic colorectal cancer using an intensified twice weekly dosing schedule. Results of that trial demonstrated that the drug could be safely given on a twice weekly dosing schedule. One of eight patients with metastatic colorectal cancer showed clinical stability. These results are consistent with the prior experience of an approximately 20% response rate in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Based on data obtained from these trials, the Company believes that ImmTher(R) would be beneficial as part of an adjuvant therapy program for patients with resected colon cancer who have a high probability of recurrence. To further develop ImmTher(R) for this indication, the Company is seeking a collaboration with a cooperative clinical group which would have the large number of patients required for a phase III randomized study. Additionally, for such a trial the Company must establish the manufacturing capability required, the appropriate FDA review process for a trial for drug approval and the data management and monitoring capabilities for such a trial. It is likely one or more of these activities may need to be contracted to an outside provider. Over the past year, the Company has, based on preliminary data, completed a phase II clinical trial in patients with metastatic malignant melanoma and metastatic prostate cancer. Neither of these trials provided sufficient evidence of efficacy to warrant further investigation. The Company's currently available cash resources are not sufficient to fully fund the studies required for FDA approval of ImmTher(R) in any of the diseases currently under study. Accordingly, the Company will require additional capital to complete the drug approval process of ImmTher(R) for any of the currently targeted diseases which by virtue of a successful phase II trial the Company would be able to proceed to a phase III trial for drug approval. 4 The Company's procedures for producing its product involve substantial expenditures of both time and money. Several months are required in the manufacturing process. In addition, certain of the materials used in producing the product, including in particular a compound used in the liposome formulation, are currently available only in limited quantities from a single supplier. This limited availability may adversely affect the Company; however, the Company is currently seeking additional suppliers. THERAMIDE(TM) The Company is engaged in research and development activities into a second disaccharide peptide-based compound for macrophage activation in treating cancer named "Theramide(TM)." An IND for this proposed product was filed with the FDA in September 1993 and a Phase I clinical trial was begun in February 1994. Theramide(TM), due to its stability, is a longer acting drug which can be administered without the necessity of a liposome carrier. Based on initial studies by the Company, Theramide(TM) appears to be superior, in comparison to ImmTher(R), for vaccine formulations and for the potential treatment of infectious diseases. The Company is currently conducting further exploratory studies of Theramide(TM) in animal models for the potential treatment of infectious diseases and for use in vaccines. The Company's currently available cash resources will not be sufficient to support to any substantial degree the development of Theramide(TM). Based on the results obtained, the Company will need to raise additional capital or enter into cooperative agreements to further the development of Theramide(TM). GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS The manufacture and sale of pharmaceutical and biological products are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA in the United States and by comparable regulatory agencies in certain foreign countries. The FDA has established guidelines and safety standards which are applicable to the preclinical evaluation and clinical investigation of therapeutic products and stringent regulations which govern the manufacture and sale of such products. ImmTher(R) is regulated by the FDA's Center for Biologic Evaluation and Research which exercises regulatory authority over the manufacture, marketing, and distribution of the product. In order to obtain regulatory approval from the FDA, the Company must establish that its product is safe and effective through clinical trials and that the Company or another manufacturer of the product 5 is capable of producing it according to established standards of purity and potency. The process of obtaining FDA approval for a new therapeutic product may take several years from the commencement of clinical investigations and often involves the expenditure of substantial resources. The steps typically required before such a product can be produced and marketed for human use include preclinical evaluation in vitro and in animal models and the filing of a Claimed Exemption for an Investigational New Drug ("IND"). Preclinical studies are conducted in vitro and in animal models in order to gain preliminary information on the safety and efficacy of a drug. The results of such preclinical studies are submitted to the FDA as part of the IND application. After the sponsor files an IND, the sponsor may commence investigating the drug in humans within 30 days unless otherwise notified by the FDA. Clinical trials are conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practices under protocols that detail the objectives of the study, the parameters to be used to monitor safety and the efficacy criteria to be evaluated. Each protocol must be submitted to the FDA as part of the IND. Further, each clinical study must be conducted under the auspices of an independent Institutional Review Board ("IRB") at the institution at which the study will be conducted. The IRB will consider, among other things, ethical factors, the safety of human subjects and the possible liability of the institution. The human clinical testing program for a drug involves three phases. Phase I investigations are conducted on volunteers or, in the case of certain anti-tumor agents, on patients with a malignant disease, to determine the maximum tolerated doses and any side effects of the product. Phase II studies are conducted on patients with the disease or condition to be studied, in order to determine whether the product demonstrates effectiveness against the disease and to determine the most effective doses and schedule of administration. Phase III studies involve controlled investigations on patients who have the disease or condition for the purpose of determining whether the drug is effective in a randomized trial compared to standard treatment. With respect to ImmTher(R), which is regulated by the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, data from Phase I, Phase II, and Phase III trials are submitted to the FDA in a Product License Application ("PLA"). The PLA involves considerable data collection, verification and analysis, as well as the preparation of summaries of the manufacturing and testing processes, preclinical studies, and clinical trials. The FDA's Center for Biologic Evaluation and Research must approve a PLA for a drug before the drug may be 6 marketed in the United States. At the same time as the PLA is submitted, the Company or another manufacturer of the product must apply for an establishment license by demonstrating an ability to produce the product in accordance with established standards of potency and purity and otherwise to comply with applicable good manufacturing practices. Theramide(TM) is regulated by the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER). Following Phase I, II, and III studies, as noted above, the Company must submit to the FDA CDER a New Drug Application (NDA) containing information related to the chemistry, manufacturing, nonclinical pharmacology and toxicology, human pharmacokinetics and bioavailability, and human clinical data. The Company's research and development activities are at an early stage. The Company has completed a Phase I trial of ImmTher(R) involving twelve patients where toxicity was studied. Three patients demonstrated some responsiveness to the drug. The Company has engaged in limited Phase II trials and subsequent to August 1992 conducted a Phase II clinical trial of ImmTher(R). Further Phase II and Phase III trials will be necessary. The Company has initiated Phase I trials of its second proposed product Theramide(TM). The Company will be required to raise additional funds to complete these trials for drug approval. The Company may be required to enter into joint development, licensing or similar collaborative arrangements with one or more large pharmaceutical companies which will assume the costs and responsibility for further clinical testing and obtaining FDA approval for the Company's proposed products. To the extent that the Company is unable to enter into such arrangements, it will not have the resources to complete the regulatory approval process with respect to its proposed product. See Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations. At such time, if ever, that the Company begins marketing its product for commercial sale in the United States, any manufacturing operations which may be established within or outside the United States will be subject to rigorous regulation, including the need to comply with Federal Good Manufacturing Practice Regulations. See "Manufacturing and Marketing." The Company may also be subject to regulation under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Environmental Protection Act, the Toxic Substance Control Act, Export Control Act and other present and future laws of general application. 7 PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS The Company owns two United States patents and has pending one patent application relating to disaccharide compounds in the United States and foreign countries. There can be no assurance that the claims in the pending patent applications will issue as patents, that any issued patent will provide the Company with significant competitive advantages, or that challenges will not be instituted against the validity or enforceability of any patent owned by the Company or, if instituted, that such challenges will not be successful. The cost of litigation to uphold the validity and prevent infringement would be substantial. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similar technologies or duplicate the Company's technology or design around the patented aspects of the Company's technology. There is no assurance the Company's proposed technology will not infringe patents or other rights owned by others, licenses to which may not be available to the Company. In some cases, the Company may rely on trade secrets to protect its innovations. There can be no assurance that trade secrets will be established, or that secrecy obligations will be honored, or that others will not independently develop similar or superior technology. To the extent that consultants, key employees or other third parties apply technological information independently developed by them or by others to Company projects, disputes may arise as to the proprietary rights to such information which may not be resolved in favor of the Company. In fiscal 1987, the Company was awarded two Phase I Small Business Innovation and Research (SBIR) contracts. The United States government has the right to use the products developed with such funding for its internal use only. The Company did not develop any final products with this funding. PRODUCT LIABILITY The testing, marketing and sale of pharmaceutical products entails a risk of product liability claims by patients and others. The Company has obtained liability insurance with limits of liability of $1,000,000 for each claim and $1,000,000 in the aggregate. There can be no assurance that these coverage limits will be adequate to protect the Company from liability or that it will be able to continue such insurance in effect for premiums acceptable to the Company. In the event of a successful suit against the Company, lack or insufficiency of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Further, certain distributors of pharmaceutical products require minimum 8 product liability insurance coverage as a condition precedent to purchasing or accepting products for distribution. Failure to satisfy such insurance requirements could impede the ability of the Company to distribute any products which the Company may successfully develop, which would have a material adverse effect upon the business and financial condition of the Company. The Company has not determined whether higher liability limits will be required, however it believes it can obtain insurance with higher liability limits if necessary. MANUFACTURING AND MARKETING The Company's activities are directed to the development of products for the treatment of human cancer, including primarily products intended for use with patients with lung cancer, colo-rectal cancer metastatic to the liver, and metastatic breast cancer. In addition, it is the intention of the Company, depending on the efficacy of its proposed products, to evaluate their utility as adjuvant therapy in patients currently free of disease but with a high probability of relapse. The Company does not now have and probably will not have in the foreseeable future, the resources to manufacture or directly market on a large commercial scale any products which it may develop. In connection with the Company's research and development activities, it will seek to enter into collaborative arrangements with pharmaceutical companies to assist in funding development costs, including the costs of clinical testing necessary to obtain regulatory approvals. It is expected that these entities will also be responsible for commercial scale manufacturing which must be in compliance with applicable FDA regulations. The Company anticipates that such arrangements may involve the grant by the Company of the exclusive or semi-exclusive right to sell specific products to specified market segments in particular geographic territories in exchange for a royalty, joint venture, future co-marketing or other financial interest. The Company believes that these arrangements will be more effective in promoting and distributing therapeutic products in the United States in view of the Company's limited resources and the extensive marketing networks and large advertising budgets of large pharmaceutical companies. To date, the Company has not entered into any collaborative agreements or distributorship arrangements for any of its proposed products and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into any such arrangements on favorable terms or at all. The Company may ultimately determine to establish its own manufacturing and/or marketing capability, at least for certain products, in which case it will require substantial additional funds and personnel. 9 COMPETITION The pharmaceutical industry is characterized by rapidly evolving technology and intense competition. Many companies of all sizes, including major pharmaceutical companies and specialized biotechnology companies, are engaged in activities similar to those of the Company. Many of the Company's competitors have substantially greater financial and other resources, larger research and development staffs and, unlike the Company, have significant experience in pre-clinical testing, human clinical trials and other regulatory approval procedures. In addition, colleges, universities, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations will continue to conduct research and are becoming more active in seeking patent protection and licensing arrangements to collect royalties for use of technology that they have developed, some of which may be directly competitive with that of the Company. In addition, these institutions compete with companies such as the Company in recruiting highly qualified scientific personnel. The Company does not have the resources and does not intend to compete with major pharmaceutical companies in the areas of clinical testing, regulatory approvals, manufacturing and marketing. See "Manufacturing and Marketing" and "Government Regulation." EMPLOYEES The Company currently has six full time and two part-time employees. Dr. Vosika serves in both an executive and research capacity. Three full time research and development personnel are currently employed in drug development and quality control. The two part-time employees include an animal caretaker and accountant. ITEM 2. FACILITIES The Company leases an approximately 7,500 square foot executive office, research, development and production facility. The lease, which commenced on July 1, 1993, provides for an initial annual rental of $31,872 plus the Company's proportionate share of increases in taxes and operating expenses. The lease is for a term of three years expiring June 30, 1996 with an option to renew for up to three additional three year terms with increases in rent of up to 10%. In conjunction with leasing these facilities, the Company expended $410,000 for leasehold improvements and approximately $232,000 for research equipment. 10 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There are no pending material legal proceedings to which the Company is a party. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS. (A) PLAN OF OPERATION The Company is a development stage enterprise and expects no significant revenue from the sale of products for the current fiscal year. On August 20, 1992, the Company completed a public offering of securities and realized net proceeds of approximately $6,750,000, before deducting expenses related to the offering of approximately $500,000. At January 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,022,120 and it had working capital of $1,008,943. At January 31, 1995 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,236,156 and working capital of $2,205,557. In November 1995, the Company purchased from Primedex Health Systems, Inc., 1,150,001 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $.125 per share, or an aggregate of $143,750. On March 1, 1996, the Company agreed to sell 5,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for a price of $.065 per share, or an aggregate of $325,000. The purchaser has the right to designate one person to the Company's Board of Directors. The proceeds from the sale of the shares are intended to be used for general corporate purposes. The Company's current level of research and development activities requires the expenditure of approximately $120,000 per month. Additional expenses will be incurred in outside expanded clinical trials to accomplish the necessary data collection and clinical trials required by the FDA for the commercial production, marketing and distribution of the Company's proposed products. Management of the Company believes that its current cash resources will be sufficient to support its operations for at least through July, 1997. The Company's cash resources will not be sufficient to permit the Company to complete the clinical trials of its initial proposed product necessary to obtain any FDA approvals. Accordingly, the Company may be required to collaborate with one or more large pharmaceutical companies which will provide the necessary financing and expertise to obtain regulatory approvals, complete clinical development, manufacture and market such product. Alternatively, the Company will be required to seek additional funds from other sources not now identified. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into the collaborative arrangements or raise additional capital necessary to complete its clinical trials, obtain necessary regulatory approvals, or fully develop or commercialize its proposed product on acceptable terms. In such event, if the Company was unable to 13 obtain from alternative sources the substantial financing necessary on acceptable terms, it would be unable to complete the development or commercialize any products. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Pursuant to Rule 12b-23, the financial statements set forth on pages F-1 et seq attached hereto are incorporated hereunder by reference. ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. Since February 1, 1994, there has been no change in the Company's independent public accountants and therefore no response to this Item is required. 14 PART III ITEM 9.

See Notes to Financial Statements. F-8 IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, INC. [A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE] NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1] OPERATIONS BASIS OF PRESENTATION - ImmunoTherapeutics, Inc. [the "Company"] was incorporated in January 1987 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Biological Therapeutics, Inc. ["BTI"]. BTI was incorporated on December 19, 1984 and commenced operations on February 15, 1985 [inception date]. On March 30, 1987 BTI was merged into the Company. The financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its predecessor, BTI, for all periods presented. NATURE OF BUSINESS - The Company is engaged in research and development of pharmaceutical agents for the treatment and prevention of human malignancy and other diseases. The Company operates out of a single research facility in Fargo, North Dakota. [2] SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. OFFICE AND LAB EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS - Office and lab equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the three-year term of the lease. Depreciation expense was $188,644 and $187,790 for the years ended January 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS - Expenditures for research and development activities are charged to operations as incurred. PATENT ISSUANCE COSTS - The cost of patents is accumulated during the approval process. Patents granted are amortized on a straight-line basis over 17 years or the estimated remaining economic life. When a patent is not granted or the process is terminated the accumulated cost is charged to operations. NET [LOSS] PER SHARE - The net [loss] per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted are excluded from the computation since the effect on the net loss per common share would be anti-dilutive. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk is limited to cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. At January 31, 1996, the Company has approximately $950,000 in financial institutions that is subject to normal credit risk beyond the insured amounts. [3] USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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. [4] FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS At January 31, 1996, the Company's financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents and trade payables. At January 31, 1996, the fair value of these financial instruments approximated carrying value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. F-9 IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, SHEET #2 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [5] DEVELOPMENT STAGE ACTIVITIES, OPERATIONS AND BUSINESS COMBINATION For the period from its incorporation to date, the Company has been a "development stage enterprise" and the Company's operations have consisted primarily of financial planning, raising capital, and research and development activities. The Company has not produced any revenues from product sales since its inception and incurred a net loss of $1,187,985 for the year ended January 31, 1996 and accumulated losses since inception of $8,256,803. The Company raised additional capital in public equity offerings in fiscal 1988, 1990 and 1993 and in a private placement in fiscal 1991 to finance continued research and development activities. On December 4, 1991, the Company issued 4,454,224 shares of common stock to Primedex Health Systems, Inc. The shares issued represented 90 percent of the outstanding stock, warrants and options of the Company. In exchange, the Company received $150,000 and a $295,422, non-interest bearing note due on December 31, 2014. Through sales of the Company's common stock Primedex Health Systems, Inc. had reduced its ownership to 21.8 percent at January 31, 1995, and had repaid the full face value of the note. On November 27, 1995, the Company repurchased the remaining 1,150,001 of its shares owned by Primedex Health Systems, Inc. for $143,750. [6] REVENUE RECOGNITION In fiscal 1987, the Company was awarded two Phase I Small Business Innovation and Research ["SBIR"] contracts amounting to $50,000 each. Revenue related to such contracts has been recorded in the period in which the contract revenue was earned based upon the terms of the contracts. The U.S. Government has the right to use the products developed with the above funding for its internal use only. Expenses directly related to performing research under the SBIR contracts have been included in SBIR contract research and development expense in the accompanying statements of operations. [7] STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY In October 1990, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement to sell up to 166,666 shares to six investors in consideration for $100,000. In addition, the holders of these shares have the right to require the Company to register these shares for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In accordance with the agreement, the Company issued 85,416 shares of common stock for $51,250 from November 1990 through January 1991. Of the shares sold, 25,000 were sold to the President of the Company. During the period from February 1, 1991 through April 15, 1991, an additional 41,583 shares were sold under this agreement for $24,950 of which 9,500 shares were sold to the President of the Company. On May 14, 1991, the Company changed the par value of its stock from $.01 per share to $.001 per share and increased the authorized shares of its common stock from 120,000,000 to 500,000,000. On November 15, 1991, the Company issued 230,000 shares of common stock valued at $23,000 in exchange for $5,000 and financial services valued at $18,000. On December 4, 1991, the Company issued 4,454,224 shares of common stock to Primedex Health Systems, Inc. The shares issued represented 90 percent of the outstanding stock, warrants and options of the Company. In exchange, the Company received $150,000 and a $295,422 non-interest bearing note due on December 31, 2014. The note was discounted at 8 percent to a principal amount of $50,315. This note has been paid. On January 31, 1992, the stockholders approved a 1 for 100 share reverse stock split. The stock split has been retroactively reflected in all share and per share data in these financial statements. On the same date, the Company changed the par value of its post split shares from .10 to .001 and increased the authorized shares of its post split common stock from 5,000,000 to 500,000,000. These changes do not affect the reduction in option exercise price approved on October 31, 1991. On August 24, 1992, the Company completed a secondary public offering of 1,000,000 units consisting of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 common stock purchase warrants. The net proceeds of the offering was $6,231,051. F-10 IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, SHEET #3 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [7] STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY [CONTINUED] On June 29, 1993, the stockholders approved a decrease in the number of authorized common shares from 500,000,000 to 50,000,000 and an increase in the number of common shares reserved under the incentive stock option plan from 750 to 250,000. On September 23, 1994, the Board of Directors authorized the designation of 100,000 shares of the Company's authorized preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock. This preferred stock is intended to be issued in connection with a Stockholders Rights Plan. Under the Stockholders' Rights Plan each outstanding share of the Company's common stock has attached to it one stock purchase right. These rights will continue to be represented by and trade with the Company's common stock certificates unless and until certain takeover-related events occur. Following such events, each right will become exercisable to purchase one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $.05, at an exercise price of $15 per one one-hundredth share subject to adjustment. In the event any person acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the outstanding common shares, each right will be exercisable, for a sixty-day period following the announcement of such acquisition, to purchase the Company's common stock or common stock equivalent having a market value equal to two times the exercise price. The Stockholders' Rights Plan further provides that if, after the occurrence of such an acquisition, the Company is merged into any other corporation or 50% or more of the Company's assets are sold, each right will be exercisable to purchase common shares of the acquiring corporation having a market value equal to two times the exercise price. The rights expire on September 23, 2001, and are subject to redemption by the Company's Board of Directors at $.001 per right at any time prior to the first date upon which they become exercisable to purchase common shares. NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS - The Company periodically grants non-qualified stock options to officers and certain key employees which in some cases have exercise prices below the market value of the common stock at the date the options were granted. Accordingly, compensation expense, equal to the difference between the exercise price of the options and the fair value of the stock at the date of grant is being recognized ratably over the period during which the grantee performs services and becomes vested in the options granted. The Company recognized compensation expense of $12,121 and $49,348 in fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively, related to these options. The shares granted originally had an exercise price of between $.001 and $35.00, have individually defined exercise periods, and expire at various times through September 1999. On October 31, 1991, the Board of Directors extended the expiration date of all options expiring in March 1992 to March 1997. The Board also reduced the exercise price to $.001 for all outstanding non-qualified options. NON-EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS - The Company periodically grants non-qualified stock options to non-employee consultants. Stock options to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of common stock may be granted under the plan. Members of the Company's Board of Scientific Advisors each receive options to purchase 2,000 shares of common stock at the end of each year of their three-year contracts plus 2,000 additional shares for attendance at each meeting. At January 31, 1996, 300,000 shares are reserved for issuance under the plan. Options are granted at exercise prices equal to the fair value of the stock on the grant date. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS - The Company maintains incentive stock option plans which provide that stock options to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of common stock may be granted to officers and key employees. Options granted are at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant, except for owners of more than 10 percent of the Company, for which the exercise price is equal to 110 percent of the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. F-11 IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, SHEET #4 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [7] STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY [CONTINUED] The plan also provides that options granted under the plan will expire not later than ten years from the date of grant except for owners of more than 10 percent of the Company for which options granted will expire not later than five years from the date of grant. Options granted under the plan may be immediately exercisable. Information with respect to these options is summarized as follows: Number of Range of Price Shares Per Share OUTSTANDING AT JANUARY 31, 1994 178,270 $ .001 - 35.00 Granted -- -- Expired -- -- Cancelled 6,731 .01 Exercised -- -- ------------- ----------------- OUTSTANDING AT JANUARY 31, 1995 171,539 35.00 Granted 510,000 .07 Expired -- -- Cancelled (30,786) 1.80 - 2.00 Exercised -- -- ------------- ----------------- OUTSTANDING AT JANUARY 31, 1996 650,753 $ .001 - 35.00 ------------------------------- ============= ================= EXERCISABLE AT JANUARY 31, 1996 188,753 $ .001 - 35.00 ------------------------------- ============= ================= WARRANTS - On June 17, 1991, the Company issued an aggregate 35,180 five-year common stock purchase warrants. The warrants are exercisable at $.60 per share and expire June 16, 1996. In connection with the Company's secondary public offering on August 13, 1992, the Company issued 1,000,000 five-year common stock purchase warrants at an exercise price of $7.50. 412,943 of these warrants were acquired and retired by the Company in connection with its acquisition of treasury stock. The warrants are redeemable by the Company at $.005 per warrant subject to certain conditions relating to the market price of the Company's common stock. [8] INCOME TAXES At January 31, 1996, the Company had a useable net operating loss carryforward of approximately $3,600,000 after limitations based on changes in ownership. If not utilized to offset future taxable income, this carryforward will expire at a rate of approximately $480,000 in 2006, $90,000 in 2007, $980,000 in 2008, $910,000 in 2009 and $1,140,000 in 2010. In addition, the Company has research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $207,000 which expire to the extent of $66,000 in 2003, $39,000 in 2004, $15,000 in 2005, $36,000 in 2008 and $51,000 in 2009. Pursuant to the adoption by the Company of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 on February 1, 1992, the Company has a deferred tax asset of $1,500,000 arising from net operating loss carryforwards of $1,200,000, tax credit carryforwards of $207,000 and excess financial reporting depreciation of $93,000. However, due to the uncertainty that the Company will generate income in the future sufficient to fully or partially utilize these carryovers, an allowance of $1,500,000 has been established to offset this asset. This represents an increase of $480,000 over the valuation allowance at January 31, 1995 [See Note 10]. F-12 IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, SHEET #5 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [9] LEASES The Company leases its office and laboratory facilities under an operating lease expiring July 31, 1996. The lease provides for minimum annual rentals and provides for additional rent based on increases in operating costs and real estate taxes. The lease also provides for three renewals for a period of three years each at an annual rental of $39,375 plus a Consumer Price Index adjustment to a maximum of 10 percent. Future minimum lease payments are $19,688 for the year ended January 31, 1997. Rent expense was $39,375 and $35,250 for the years ended January 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. [10] SUBSEQUENT EVENT On March 1, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to issue 5,000,000 shares of its common stock to Dominion Resources, Inc. ["Dominion"] for $325,000. The sale of common stock will take place in three successive closings. The first closing for 1,666,666 shares will take place on March 18, 1996, the second closing for 1,666,666 shares will take place on April 15, 1996 and the third closing for 1,666,668 shares will take place on May 15, 1996. Upon consummation of the third closing, Dominion will hold a 54.8 percent ownership interest in the Company. As a consequence of this transaction, the Company will lose the future benefit of substantially all of its net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. [11] NEW AUTHORITATIVE ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board ["FASB"] issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ["SFAS"] No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," in March of 1995. SFAS No. 121 established accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. SFAS No. 121 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. Adoption of SFAS No. 121 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. The FASB has also issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," in October 1995. SFAS No. 123 uses a fair value based method of accounting for stock options and similar equity instruments as contrasted to the intrinsic valued based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ["APB"] Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Company has not decided if it will adopt SFAS No. 123 or continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25 for financial reporting purposes. SFAS No. 123 will have to be adopted for financial note disclosure purposes in any event. The accounting requirements of SFAS No. 123 are effective for transactions entered into in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 1995; the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 are effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. [12] SUBSEQUENT EVENT [UNAUDITED] The closings on the sale of common stock discussed in Note 10 took place on March 18, 1996 and April 15, 1996. On March 22, 1996, the President of the Company, was granted a ten-year option to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $.065 per share. . . . . . . . . .

The Company shall not declare or pay any dividends on, or make any other distribution with respect to, its capital stock, whether now or hereafter outstanding, other than dividends payable in shares of such stock, or purchase, acquire, redeem or retire any shares of its capital stock, without the consent of Dominion's representative on the Company's Board of Directors, provided, however, the foregoing shall not prohibit the Company from repurchasing any shares of its Common Stock from any present or former officer, Director or employee of the Company. 16 8.16.

Restrictive Agreement. The Company covenants and agrees that subsequent to the First Closing, neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries will be a party to any agreement or instrument which by its terms would restrict the Company's performance of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. 9. Registration of Common Stock. 9.1. Demand Registration. Upon the written request of one or more registered holders of Securities, which request will state the intended method of disposition by such holders and will request that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Common Stock (as defined in Section 10.5 hereof) of such holders, the Company will, within ten (10) days after the receipt of such request give written notice of such requested registration to all registered holders of Securities and thereupon (except as expressly provided herein) will use reasonable efforts to effect the registration ("Demand Registration") under the Securities Act of (x) the shares of Registrable Common Stock included in the initial request for registration (for disposition in accordance with the intended method of disposition stated in such request) and (y) all other shares of Registrable Common Stock the holders of which have made written request to the Company for registration thereof within 15 days after the receipt of such written notice from the Company, provided that: 17 (a) the Company shall be required to effect only two Demand Registrations hereunder, each of which shall have been initially requested by holders of at least 60% of the Securities outstanding at the time of such request, except that, upon request of any holder of Securities (regardless of the number of Securities held by such holder), the Company shall be required to effect an unlimited number of registrations on Form S-3, or a similar short form registration statement, which registrations (hereinafter referred to as "Short Form Registrations") shall not be included for purposes of this Section 9.1(a) in the total of two Demand Registrations which the Company is required to effect; (b) if a Demand Registration is in connection with an underwritten public offering, the underwriters will be selected by holders of a majority of Registrable Common Stock being included in such offering, subject to the approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and each holder of Securities agrees by acquisition of such Securities not to effect any public sale or distribution of such Securities or Registrable Common Stock (other than as part of such underwritten public offering) during the period commencing seven days prior to, and expiring ninety (90) days after, such underwritten public offering has become effective; (c) the Company shall not include and shall not permit third parties to include additional securities in any Demand Registration without the consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of Registrable Common Stock sought to be included in such Demand Registration; (d) if a Demand Registration is in connection with an underwritten public offering, and if the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the amount of Registrable Common Stock requested to be included in such registration exceeds the amount of such Registrable Common Stock which can be sold in such offering, the Company will nevertheless include such Registrable Common Stock in such registration prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Common Stock (notwithstanding any consent obtained in accordance with Section 9.1(c) hereof) pro rata among the holders of Registrable Common Stock requesting inclusion on the basis of the number of shares of Registrable Common Stock of such holders; and (e) registrations under this Section 9.1 will be on a form permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission selected by the underwriters if the Demand Registration is in connection with an underwritten public offering or otherwise by the Company. 18 9.2. Incidental Registrations. (a) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Section 9.1) whether of its own accord or at the demand of any holder of such securities pursuant to an agreement with respect to the registration thereof, and if the form of registration statement proposed to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Common Stock, the Company will give notice to all holders of Securities not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the filing of such registration statement of its intention to proceed with the proposed registration (the "Incidental Registration"), and, upon the written request of any such holder made within ten (10) days after the receipt of any such notice (which request will specify the Registrable Common Stock intended to be disposed of by such holder and state the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company will use reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Common Stock as to which registration has been requested to be registered under the Securities Act, provided that if such registration is in connection with an underwritten public offering, such holder's Securities to be included in such registration shall be offered upon the same terms and conditions as apply to any other securities included in such registration. (b) If an Incidental Registration is a primary registration on behalf of the Company and is in connection with an underwritten public offering, and if the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the amount of securities requested to be included in such registration (whether by the Company, the holders of Securities pursuant to Section 9.2(a) or other holders of its securities pursuant to any other rights granted by the Company to demand inclusion of any such securities in such registration) exceeds the amount of such securities which can be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration the amount of securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold, in the following order (i) first, all of the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, subject to the terms of any other agreement to which the Company is a party, all of the Registrable Common Stock requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders thereof on the basis of the number of shares of Registrable Common Stock then owned by such holders, and (iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders thereof on the basis of the amount of such securities then owned by such holders. (c) If an Incidental Registration is a secondary registration on behalf of holders of securities of the Company and is in connection with an underwritten public offering, and if the 19 managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the amount of securities requested to be included in such registration (whether by such holders, by holders of Securities pursuant to Section 9.2(a) or by holders of its securities pursuant to any other rights granted by the Company to demand inclusion of securities in such registration) exceeds the amount of such securities which can be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration, the amount of securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold, in the following order (i) first, all of the securities requested to be included by holders demanding or requesting such registration, (ii) second, subject to the terms of any other agreement to which the Company is a party, all of the Registrable Common Stock requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders thereof on the basis of the number of shares of Registrable Common Stock then owned by such holders; and (iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders thereof on the basis of the amount of such securities then owned by such holders. 9.3. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required to use reasonable efforts to effect or cause the registration of any Registrable Common Stock under the Securities Act as provided in this Section 9, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible: (a) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Common Stock and use reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; (b) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of not less than nine (9) months or such shorter period in which the disposition of all securities in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement shall be completed, and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act (to the extent applicable to the Company) with respect to such dispositions; (c) furnish to each seller of such Registrable Common Stock such number of copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities 20 Act, and such other documents, as such seller may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Common Stock owned by such seller; (d) use its reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Common Stock covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any seller reasonably requests, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Common Stock owned by such seller, except that (i) the Company will not be required to register or qualify such Registrable Common Stock in any jurisdiction in which the officers or Directors of the Company would be required by the relevant securities commission or its equivalent in such jurisdiction to enter into an agreement restricting their rights to transfer their shares of Common Stock, and (ii) the Company will not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it would not, but for the requirements of this Section 9.3(d) be obligated to be qualified, to subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; (e) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Common Stock covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement; (f) notify each seller of such Registrable Common Stock at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such seller, the Company will prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Common Stock, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (g) cause all such Registrable Common Stock to be listed on each securities exchange or automated over-the-counter trading system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; 21 (h) enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other actions as reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Common Stock; and (i) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Common Stock, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller and/or representative of such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporation documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement, provided, however, nothing herein shall require the Company to provide Dominion with copies of or access to its scientific data. 9.4. Registration and Selling Expenses. (a) All expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Company's performance of or compliance with this Section 9, including, without limitation (i) all registration and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.), (ii) blue sky fees and expenses, (iii) all necessary printing and duplicating expenses and (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants for the Company (including the expenses of any audit of financial statements), retained by the Company (all such expenses being herein called "Registration Expenses"), will be paid by the Company except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 9.4. (b) The Company will, in any event, in connection with any registration statement, pay its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal, accounting or other duties in connection therewith and expenses of audits of year-end financial statements), the expense of liability insurance and the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on one or more securities exchanges or automated over-the-counter trading systems on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. (c) The Company shall bear the Registration Expenses of the first Demand Registration (which is not a Short Form Registration) and of each Short Form Registration hereunder. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent any holder or holders from retaining such counsel as they shall choose, the expenses of which shall be borne by such holder or holders. 22 (d) The holders of Registrable Common Stock covered by the second Demand Registration (which is not a Short Form Registration) shall pay or reimburse the Company for the Registration Expenses in connection therewith, provided that they shall not be liable for expenses which would otherwise have been incurred by the Company in the ordinary course of business or in excess of an aggregate of $60,000; and provided further that to the extent securities of the Company or third parties are included in such registration, the Registration Expenses of such registration shall be borne pro rata by the Company and selling security holders in proportion to the dollar value of the securities being sold by each such person. (e) The holders of Registrable Common Stock covered by any Incidental Registration shall pay or reimburse the Company for any incremental Registration Expenses incurred by reason of the inclusion of such Registrable Common Stock in such registration. (f) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to sales of Registrable Common Stock in connection with any Demand Registration or Incidental Registration shall be borne by all persons who are selling Registrable Common Stock pursuant to such Registration Statement in proportion to the dollar value of the securities being sold by each such person, or in such other proportion as they may agree. (g) All fees and expenses required to be paid by the holders of Registrable Common Stock in connection with any Demand Registration or Incidental Registration hereunder shall be borne by said holders in proportion to the dollar value of the securities of such holder covered by such Demand Registration or Incidental Registration. 9.5. Other Public Sales and Registrations. The Company agrees that if it has previously filed a registration statement with respect to Registrable Common Stock in connection with a Demand Registration or Incidental Registration hereunder, and if such previous registration has not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company will not file or cause to become effective any other registration of any of its securities under the Securities Act or otherwise effect a public sale or distribution of its securities (except pursuant to registration on Form S-8 or any successor form relating to a special offering to the employees or security holders of the Company or any Subsidiary), whether on its own behalf or at the request of any holder of such securities, until at least ninety (90) days have elapsed after the effective date of such previous registration. 23 9.6. Transferees of Securities. Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 9, no person to whom Securities are transferred shall have any rights under this Section 9 as a holder of such Securities unless such person agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 9.7. Indemnification. (a) The Company hereby agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Common Stock, its officers and directors, if any, and each person, if any, who controls such holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (under the Securities Act or common law or otherwise) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus (and as amended or supplemented if the Company has furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, which registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus shall be prepared in connection with a Demand Registration or Incidental Registration, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement contained in or by any omission or alleged omission from information furnished to the Company by such holder in connection with a Demand Registration or Incidental Registration, provided the Company will not be liable pursuant to this Section 9.7 if such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses have been caused by any selling security holder's failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, after the Company has furnished such holder with a sufficient amount of copies of the same. (b) In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Common Stock is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information as is reasonably requested by the Company for use in any such registration statement or prospectus and shall indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated in the registration statement or prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent such losses, claims, 24 damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement contained in or by an omission or alleged omission from information so furnished by such holder in connection with the Demand Registration or Incidental Registration. If the offering pursuant to any such registration is made through underwriters, each such holder agrees to enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with such underwriters and to indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors, if any, and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act to the same extent as hereinabove provided with respect to indemnification by such holder of the Company. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 9.7(a) or Section 9.7(b) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is made against the indemnifying party under such Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such Section. In case any such action or proceeding is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel approved by such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under such Section for any legal or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless incurred at the written request of the indemnifying party. Notwithstanding the above, the indemnified party will have the right to employ counsel of its own choice in any such action or proceeding if the indemnified party has reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those of the indemnifying party, or counsel to the indemnified party is of the opinion that it would not be desirable for the same counsel to represent both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party because such representation might result in a conflict of interest (in either of which cases the indemnifying party will not have the right to assume the defense of any such action or proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties and such legal and other expenses will be borne by the indemnifying party). An indemnifying party will not be liable to any indemnified party for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected without the consent of such indemnifying party. 25 (d) If the indemnification provided for in Section 9.7(a) or Section 9.7(b) is unavailable under applicable law to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the holders of Registrable Common Stock on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the holders of Registrable Common Stock on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the holders of Registrable Common Stock and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.7(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. (e) Promptly after receipt by the Company or any holder of Securities of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding, such party will, if a claim for contribution in respect thereof is to be made against another party (the "contributing party"), notify the contributing party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the contributing party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any other party other than for contribution hereunder. In case any such action, suit, or proceeding is brought against any party, and such party notifies a contributing party of the commencement thereof, the contributing party will be entitled to participate therein with the notifying party and any other contributing party similarly notified. 10.
