DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of Business Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. (also d/b/a Mateon Therapeutics, Inc.) (“Oncotelic”), was formed in the State of New York in 1988 as OXiGENE, Inc., was reincorporated in the State of Delaware in 1992, changed its name to Mateon Therapeutics, Inc. in 2016, and then Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. in November 2020. Oncotelic conducts business activities through Oncotelic and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Oncotelic, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oncotelic, Inc.”), PointR Data, Inc. (“PointR”), a Delaware corporation, and EdgePoint AI, Inc. (“Edgepoint”), a Delaware Corporation for which there are non-controlling interests, (Oncotelic, Oncotelic Inc., PointR and Edgepoint are collectively called the “Company”). In February 2020, the Company formed a subsidiary, Edgepoint. Edgepoint is a start-up company that plans to develop technologies and IP related to various unmet issues within the pharma and medical device industries. The Company may spin off Edgepoint into a separate public company. The Company is a cancer immunotherapy company dedicated to the development of first in class self-immunization protocol (“SIP™”) candidates for difficult to treat cancers. The Company’s proprietary SIP™ candidates offer advantages over other immunotherapies because they do not require extraction of the tumor or isolation of the antigens, and they have the potential for broad-spectrum applicability for multiple cancer types. The Company’s proprietary product candidates have shown promising clinical activity in phase 2 trials for the treatment of gliomas and pancreatic cancers. The Company aims to translate its unique insights, which span more than three decades of original work using RNA therapeutics, into the deployment of antisense as a RNA therapeutic for diseases which are caused by TGF-β overexpression, starting with cancer and expanding to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (“DMD”) and others. Oncotelic Inc.’s lead product candidate, OT-101, is being developed as a broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug that can also be used in combination with other standard cancer therapies to establish an effective multi-modality treatment strategy for difficult-to-treat cancers. Together, the Company plans to initiate phase 3 clinical trials for OT-101 in both high-grade glioma and pancreatic cancer, and any other indications that may evolve. The Company is evaluating the further development of its product candidates OXi4503 as a treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes and CA4P in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor for the treatment of advanced metastatic melanoma. The Company is also developing OT-101 for the various epidemics and pandemics, similar to the current corona virus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. In this connection, the Company entered into an agreement and supplemental agreement with Golden Mountain Partners (“GMP”) for a total of $1.2 million to render services and was paid for the development of OT-101. The Company recorded $0.9 and $1.2 million as revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 respectively, upon completion of all performance obligations under the agreement. No similar revenues were recorded during the same periods in 2021. Further, in June 2020, the Company secured $2 million in convertible debt financing from GMP to conduct a clinical trial evaluating OT-101 against COVID-19. The Company discontinued enrollment in its OT-101 clinical trial in patients with COVID-19 in June 2021. The trial completed randomization of 32 out of 36 patients planned, on an intent to treat basis. The discontinuance of the trial was due to the continuing rise of more severe variants in Latin America, leading to exhaustion of medical care infrastructure in Latin America. In addition, the Company is developing Artemisinin. Artemisinin, purified from a plant Artemisia annua, is able to inhibit TGF-β activity and is able to neutralize SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). The Company’s test results during an in vitro study at Utah State University showed Artemisinin having an EC50 of 0.45 ug/ml, and a Safety Index of 140. Artemisinin can target multiple viral threats including COVID-19 by suppressing both viral replication and clinical symptoms that arise from viral infection. Viral replication cannot occur without TGF-β. Artemisinin also has been reported to have antiviral activities against hepatitis B and C viruses, human herpes viruses, HIV-1, influenza virus A, and bovine viral diarrhea virus in the low micromolar range. TGF-β surge and cytokine storm cannot occur without TGF-β. Clinical consequences related to the TGF-β surge, including ARDS and cytokine storm, are suppressed by targeting TGF-β with Artemisinin. This was a global study, with India to contribute at least 120 patients upto the total potential aggregate of 3000 patients. ARTI-19 in India was conducted by Windlas Biotech Private Limited (“Windlas”), business partner in India, as part of the plan for the Company’s global effort at deploying Pulmoheal^TMacross India, Africa, and Latin America. We continue to evaluate to seek approval, and subsequently launch Pulmoheal^TM, with or without local partners, in various countries within the regions planned. Pulmoheal^TMis a combination of ARTIVeda^TM, our artificial intelligence (“AI”) cough application and our AI post marketing survey (“PMS”). In January 2021 and subsequently in February 2021, the Company announced preliminary results for ARTIVeda^™, or PulmoHeal^™, which is the Company’s lead Ayurvedic drug against COVID-19 in India and being developed by the Company in partnership with Windlas. These interim results were based on 120 randomized patients across 3 sites in India. The ARTI-19 India trial completed enrollment of 120 randomized individuals, we reported positive topline results in April 2021 and we expect final data as soon as available. Upon completion of the trial results and obtaining regulatory approval for the use in India, it is the Company’s objective to file for Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) with regulatory authorities around the world, including India, the United States, the United Kingdom, countries in Africa and Latin America; discussions regarding EUA with several of these authorities have commenced. Recent Developments Equity Purchase Agreement On May 3, 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the “EPL”) and Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P. (“Peak One”), pursuant to which the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct Peak One, to purchase up to $10.0 million (the “Maximum Commitment Amount”) in shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”) in multiple tranches. Geneva Roth Remark Notes On May 25, 2021, the Company consummated the closing of a private placement transaction whereby, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Geneva Agreement”) entered into with Geneva Roth Remark (“Geneva”), the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $203,750 (the “Note 1”). Further on June 28, 2021, the Company issued an additional convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $103,750 (“Note 2”, and collectively with Note 1, the “Notes”). The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Additional convertible promissory notes may be issued under the Geneva Agreement for up to $1.2 million in the aggregate principal amount subject to further agreement by and between the Company and Geneva. Extension of Maturity Date for J.H. Darbie Financing Notes & Issuance of Oncotelic Warrants The Company issued and sold a total of 100 units (“Units”), with each Unit consisting of (i) 25,000 shares of Edgepoint common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Edgepoint Common Stock”), for a price of $1.00 per share of Edgepoint Common Stock; (ii) one convertible promissory note issued by the Company (the “Unit Note”), convertible into up to 25,000 shares of EdgePoint Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.00 per share, or up to 138,889 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a conversion price of $0.18 per share; and (iii) 100,000 warrants, consisting of (a) 50,000 warrants to purchase an equivalent number of shares of EdgePoint Common Stock at $1.00 per share (“Edgepoint Warrant”), and (b) 50,000 warrants to purchase an equivalent number of shares of Company Common Stock at $0.20 per share (“Oncotelic Warrant”) (collectively, the “JH Darbie Financing”). In June 2021, the Company and the Investors agreed to extend the maturity date of the Notes from June 30, 2021, to March 31, 2022. In addition, the Company and JHDarbie identified an error in the Oncotelic Warrants and JH Darbie Financing documents which intended to have the investors to purchase $50,000 of shares of Common Stock or Edgepoint Common Stock. However, the Company only issued 50,000 Oncotelic Warrants, with an aggregate exercise price of $10,000. The error was corrected by the Company and the Company issued to the Investors an aggregate of 20.0 million additional Oncotelic Warrants, and 2.0 million additional Oncotelic Warrants to J.H. Darbie., as placement agent. Each Investor was entitled to receive 200,000 additional Oncotelic Warrants for each Unit purchased. The issuance of the additional warrants resulted in the Company recording an expense of $2,023,552 in the Company’s statement of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2021. No similar expense was recorded in the same period in 2020. Consent Solicitation In June 2020, the Company commenced a solicitation of various shareholder consents (the “Consent Solicitation”), pursuant to a consent solicitation statement (the “Consent Solicitation Statement”), to the holders (the “Stockholders”) of its Common Stock and Preferred Stock, to approve the following actions: (1) changing the name of the Company and changing the Company’s ticker symbol (the “Name Change”); (2) amending the Company’s Amended and Restated 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) to increase the number of shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) available for issuance from 7.25 million shares to 27.25 million shares, and increasing the maximum number of stock awards that may be issued in any fiscal year from 500,000 to 1,000,000 shares (the “Plan Amendment”); (3) increasing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock from 150,000,000 to 750,000,000 (the “Capital Increase”); and (4) amending and restating the certificate of incorporation for the Company (the “Amended and Restated Certificate”) to give effect to the Name Change, Capital Increase and forum selection provision. The Stockholders approved the Name Change, the Plan Amendment, the Capital Increase, and the Amended and Restated Certificate. In November 2020, the Company filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware changing its name from “Mateon Therapeutics, Inc.” to “Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc.” Further, in February 2021, the Company filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 150,000,000 shares to 750,000,000 shares. The Company has converted its 278,188 shares of Preferred Stock to 278,187,847 shares of Common Stock effective March 31, 2021. The Company registered an additional total of 20,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, which may be issued pursuant to the Registrant’s Amended and Restated 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) filed with the SEC along with our form S-8 on April 19, 2021. Such additional shares were approved by the Stockholders on August 10, 2020, as stated in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 14, 2020. A notice of corporate action was filed with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), requesting approval to change its name and ticker symbol. On March 29, 2021, the Company received approval from FINRA on its notice of corporate action, and effective March 30, 2021, the Company’s ticker symbol has changed from “MATN” to “OTLC”. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oncotelic, its wholly owned subsidiaries, Oncotelic Inc. and PointR, and Edgepoint our non-controlled interest entity. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission including Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Liquidity and Going Concern The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred net accumulated losses of approximately $27.7 million since inception of Oncotelic Inc., as the Company’s historical financial statements before the Merger have been replaced with the historical financial statements of Oncotelic Inc. The Company also has a negative working capital of $13.4 million at June 30, 2021 of which $2.6 million contingent liability of issuance of common shares of the Company to PointR shareholders upon achievement of certain milestones in accordance with the PointR merger agreement. The Company has negative cash flows from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $2.6 million. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of this filing. Management expects to incur additional losses in the foreseeable future and recognizes the need to raise capital to remain viable. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s long-term plans include continued development of its current pipeline of products to generate sufficient revenues, through either technology transfer or product sales, to cover its anticipated expenses. Until the Company is able to generate sufficient revenues from its current pipeline, the Company plans on funding its operations through the sale of equity and/or the issuance of debt, combined with or without warrants or other equity instruments. Between July 2020 and March 2021, the Company raised gross proceeds of $5 million, through the JH Darbie Financing. The Company incurred $0.7 million of costs associated with the raise, of which $0.65 million was paid as direct placement fees to JH Darbie. JH Darbie and the Company are parties to a placement agent agreement, dated February 25, 2020 pursuant to which JH Darbie had the right to sell a minimum of 40 Units and a maximum of 100 Units on a best-efforts basis. Concurrently with the sale of the Units, JH Darbie was granted, a warrant, exercisable over a five-year period, to purchase 10% of the number of Units sold in the JH Darbie Financing. As such, the Company granted 10 Units to JH Darbie pursuant to the JH Darbie Placement Agreement. In addition to the JH Darbie Financing, the Company raised $0.1 million from the Equity Purchase Agreement with Peak One, $0.3 million from Geneva and an additional $0.8 million from various bridge financiers, including $0.3 million from Autotelic Inc., a related party. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a total of approximately $0.9 and $1.2 million, respectively in service revenues from GMP. No similar revenues were recorded during the similar periods in 2021. There are no assurances that the Company would be able to generate revenues for services and/or out-licensing fees in the near future. Although no assurances can be given as to the Company’s ability to deliver on its revenue plans, or that unforeseen expenses may arise, management believes that the potential equity and debt financing or other potential financing will provide the necessary funding for the Company to continue as a going concern. Also, management cannot guarantee any potential debt or equity financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. As such, management does not believe the Company has sufficient cash for 12 months from the date of this report. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company will need to curtail operations, or cease operations completely.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred net accumulated losses of approximately $27.7 million since inception of Oncotelic Inc., as the Company’s historical financial statements before the Merger have been replaced with the historical financial statements of Oncotelic Inc. The Company also has a negative working capital of $13.4 million at June 30, 2021 of which $2.6 million contingent liability of issuance of common shares of the Company to PointR shareholders upon achievement of certain milestones in accordance with the PointR merger agreement.

Management expects to incur additional losses in the foreseeable future and recognizes the need to raise capital to remain viable. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
