NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 AND 2014 (UNAUDITED)

A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements of CEL-SCI Corporation (the Company) are unaudited and certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, these interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2014.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all accruals and adjustments (each of which is of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2015 and the results of its operations for the six and three months then ended. The condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2014 is derived from the September 30, 2014 audited financial statements. Significant accounting policies have been consistently applied in the interim financial statements and the annual financial statements. The results of operations for the six and three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Research and Office Equipment and Leasehold Improvements - Research and office equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of five to seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Repairs and maintenance which do not extend the life of the asset are expensed when incurred. The fixed assets are reviewed on a quarterly basis to determine if any of the assets are impaired.

Patents - Patent expenditures are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the expected useful life or the legal life of the patent (17 years). In the event changes in technology or other circumstances impair the value or life of the patent, appropriate adjustment in the asset value and period of amortization is made. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset, and from its disposition, is less than the carrying value of the asset. The amount of the impairment loss would be the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset and its carrying value.

Research and Development Costs - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes - The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating and tax loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be recognized. A full valuation allowance was recorded against the deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014.

Derivative Instruments – The Company has entered into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments that contain embedded derivative features. The Company accounts for these arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S.GAAP), derivative instruments and hybrid instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in earnings or other comprehensive income depending on the nature of the derivative or hybrid instruments. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, giving consideration to all of the rights and obligations of each instrument. The derivative liabilities are remeasured at fair value at the end of each interim period as long as they are outstanding.

Deferred Rent (Asset) –Consideration paid, including deposits, related to operating leases is recorded as a deferred rent asset and amortized as rent expense over the lease term. Interest on the deferred rent is calculated at 3% on the funds deposited on the manufacturing facility and is included in deferred rent. This interest income will be used to offset future rent.

Stock-Based Compensation – Compensation cost for all stock-based awards is measured at fair value as of the grant date in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” The fair value of stock options is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires various judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected option life. The stock-based compensation cost is recognized on the straight line allocation method as expense over the requisite service or vesting period.

Equity instruments issued to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non Employees.” Accordingly, compensation is recognized when goods or services are received and is measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Black-Scholes model requires various judgmental assumptions regarding the fair value of the equity instruments at the measurement date and the expected life of the options.

The Company has Incentive Stock Option Plans, Non-Qualified Stock Option Plans, a Stock Compensation Plan, Stock Bonus Plans and an Incentive Stock Bonus Plan. In some cases, these Plans are collectively referred to as the "Plans". All Plans have been approved by the stockholders.

The Company’s stock options are not transferable, and the actual value of the stock options that an employee may realize, if any, will depend on the excess of the market price on the date of exercise over the exercise price. The Company has based its assumption for stock price volatility on the variance of daily closing prices of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate assumption was based on the U.S. Treasury rate at date of the grant with term equal to the expected life of the option. Historical data was used to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding and has been determined based on an analysis of historical exercise behavior. If any of the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model change significantly, stock-based compensation expense for new awards may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period.

Vesting of restricted stock granted under the Incentive Stock Bonus Plan is subject to service, performance and market conditions and meets the classification of equity awards. These awards were measured at market value on the grant-dates for issuances where the attainment of performance criteria is likely and at fair value on the grant-dates, using a Monte Carlo simulation for issuances where the attainment of performance criteria is uncertain. The total compensation cost will be expensed over the estimated requisite service period.

Reclassification – Certain prior year items have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

B. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-15 which updates ASC 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern.” This accounting standard update requires that in connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s management will evaluate whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The update requires that management’s evaluation be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued. The changes in ASU 2014-15 will take effect for the annual financial statement period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of the pronouncement.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by these amendments. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on the financial statements.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

The Company reviews all outstanding warrants in accordance with the requirements of ASC 815. This topic provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The warrant agreements provide for adjustments to the exercise price for certain dilutive events. Under the provisions of ASC 815, the warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s stock because future equity offerings or sales of the Company’s stock are not an input to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed” option on equity shares, and equity classification is therefore precluded.

In accordance with ASC 815, derivative liabilities must be measured at fair value upon issuance and re-valued at the end of each reporting period through expiration. Any change in fair value between the respective reporting dates is recognized as a gain or loss.

Issuance of additional Warrants

On October 24, 2014, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 7,894,737 shares of common stock and 1,973,684 Series S warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Additionally, on October 21, 2014, the Company sold 1,320,000 shares of common stock and 330,000 Series S warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a private offering. For every four shares of common stock sold in these offerings, investors were issued one Series S warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The common stock and Series S warrants were sold at a combined per unit price of $0.76 for net proceeds of approximately $6.4 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. The Series S warrants may be exercised at a price of $1.25 and expire on October 11, 2018. The Series S warrants trade on the NYSE MKT under the symbol CVM WS.

The initial cost of the Series S warrants of $460,737 was added to the existing Series S warrant liability. As of March 31, 2015, the total Series S warrant liability was adjusted to fair value as noted in the above table.

3.	Options and shares issued to Consultants

As of March 31, 2015, 188,000 options issued to consultants as payment for services remained outstanding, of which 180,000 options were issued from the Non-Qualified Stock Option plans.

On December 15, 2014, the Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement for services to be provided through December 15, 2015. In consideration for services provided, the Company agreed to issue the consultant 100,000 restricted shares in three installments – 34,000 in December 2014, 33,000 on May 15, 2015, and 33,000 on August 15, 2015. Accordingly, during the six months ended March 31, 2015, the Company issued the consultant 34,000 shares of restricted stock at the fair market value of $0.57 per share. The aggregate fair market value of $19,380 was recorded as a prepaid expense and is being charged to general and administrative expense over the period of service. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had previously entered into a one-year consulting agreement with this consultant and issued 100,000 restricted shares for an aggregate fair market value of $108,710, which was recorded as a prepaid expense and charged to general and administrative expense over the period of service.

On October 20, 2013, the Company entered into a consulting agreement for services to be provided through October 19, 2016.

In addition, $66,143 was expensed during the six months ended March 31, 2014 for prior year consulting agreements. At March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively, $49,853 and $26,468 relating to these consulting agreements is included in prepaid expenses.

D. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

In accordance with ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements,” the Company determines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company generally applies the income approach to determine fair value. This method uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations with respect to those future amounts.

ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

●	Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

●

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets

●	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s assumptions

For disclosure purposes, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety in the fair value hierarchy level based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The table below sets forth the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by input level, in the condensed balance sheet at March 31, 2015:

	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total

Derivative instruments	$	8,296,963	$	-	$	288,846	$	8,585,809

The table below sets forth the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by input level, in the balance sheet at September 30, 2014:

	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total

Derivative instruments	$	5,197,352	$	-	$	307,894	$	5,505,246

The following sets forth the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances related to fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended September 30, 2014:

	Six Months Ended			Year Ended
	March 31, 2015			September 30, 2014
Beginning balance	$	307,894		$	433,024
Issuances		-			7,791,448
Settlements		-			(1,445,528	)
Transfers to Level 1		-			(7,321,071	)
Realized and unrealized (gains) losses		(19,048	)		850,021
Ending balance	$	288,846		$	307,894

The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments disclosed above under Level 3 are primarily derived from valuation models where significant inputs such as historical price and volatility of the Company’s stock, as well as U.S. Treasury Bill rates, are observable in active markets.

E. LOANS FROM OFFICER

Between December 2008 and June 2009, the Company’s President, and a director, Maximilian de Clara, loaned the Company $1,104,057. The loan from Mr. de Clara bears interest at 15% per year and is secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Company does not have the right to prepay the loan without Mr. de Clara’s consent. In accordance with the loan agreement, the Company issued Mr. de Clara warrants to purchase 164,824 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $4.00 per share. These warrants expired on December 24, 2014. At Mr. de Clara’s option, the loan may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares which will be issued upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the amount to be converted by $4.00. In consideration for an extension of the due date, Mr. de Clara received warrants to purchase 184,930 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $5.00 per share. These warrants expired on January 6, 2015. In consideration of Mr. de Clara’s agreement to subordinate his note to the convertible preferred shares and convertible debt as part of a prior year settlement agreement, the Company extended the maturity date of the note to July 6, 2015; however, Mr. de Clara may demand payment upon giving the Company a minimum 10 day notice. In August 2014, the loan and warrants were transferred to the de Clara Trust, of which the Company’s chief executive officer, Geert Kersten, is the trustee and a beneficiary. Mr. Kersten is the stepson of Mr. de Clara. Mr. de Clara will continue to receive the interest payments.

During the six and three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company paid $82,804 and $41,402, respectively, in interest expense to Mr. de Clara. During the six and three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company paid $96,605 and $41,402, respectively, in interest expense to Mr. de Clara.

F. OPERATIONS AND FINANCING

The Company has incurred significant costs since its inception in connection with the acquisition of certain patented and unpatented proprietary technology and know-how relating to the human immunological defense system, patent applications, research and development, administrative costs, construction of laboratory facilities, and clinical trials. The Company has funded such costs with proceeds from loans and the public and private sale of its common and preferred stock. The Company will be required to raise additional capital or find additional long-term financing in order to continue with its research efforts. To date, the Company has not generated any revenue from product sales. The ability of the Company to complete the necessary clinical trials and obtain US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the sale of its product candidates is uncertain. Ultimately, the Company must complete the development of its product candidates, obtain the appropriate regulatory approvals and obtain sufficient revenues from the sale of such product candidates, once approved, to support its cost structure.

The Company is currently running a large multi-national Phase 3 clinical trial for head and neck cancer with its partners TEVA Pharmaceuticals and Orient Europharma. This trial is currently primarily under the management of two clinical research organizations, or CROs, Aptiv Solutions, Inc., or Aptiv, and Ergomed Clinical Research Limited, or Ergomed. On March 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $2.6 million in cash on hand. During the six months ended March 31, 2015, the Company raised $6.4 million of net proceeds from several institutional investors. To finance the completion of its Phase 3 study and other clinical studies, the Company plans to raise additional capital in the form of corporate partnerships, debt and/or equity financings. On May 6, 2015, the Company announced that it has commenced an underwritten public offering of $35.0 million of its common stock. However, there is no assurance that the offering will be completed on these terms or at all, or that the Company will be successful in raising additional funds or that such funds will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or at all. If the Company does not raise the necessary amounts of money, the Company will either have to slow down or delay the Phase 3 clinical trial or even significantly curtail its operations until such time as it is able to raise the required funding.

The Company estimates that the total remaining cost of the Phase 3 trial, excluding any costs that will be paid by our partners, will be approximately $24.4 million after March 31, 2015. This is in addition to the approximately $20.2 million that we have spent on the trial as of March 31, 2015. It should be noted that this estimate is only an estimate based on the information currently available in CEL-SCI’s contracts with its partners, including the CROs responsible for managing the Phase 3 trial. This number can be affected by the speed of enrollment, foreign currency exchange rates and many other factors, some of which cannot be foreseen today. It is therefore possible that the cost of the Phase 3 trial will be higher than currently estimated.

On July 15, 2014, the Company was awarded a Phase 1 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant in the amount of $225,000 from the National Institute of Arthritis Muscoskeletal and Skin Diseases, which is part of the National Institutes of Health. The grant will fund the further development of CEL-SCI’s LEAPS technology as a potential treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease of the joints. The Company recognizes revenue as the expenses are incurred. The amount of the grant earned during the six months ended March 31, 2015 was $92,073. As of March 31, 2015, the Company collected $81,176 of this grant and recorded a receivable of $10,897. The balance of the funds is expected to be collected by June 30, 2015.

The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, but due to recurring losses from operations and future liquidity needs, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

G. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Clinical Research Agreements

In March 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Aptiv to provide certain clinical research services in accordance with a master service agreement. The Company will reimburse Aptiv for costs incurred. In May and October of 2013, the Company made advance payments totaling $600,000. The funds advanced will be credited back in $150,000 annual increments from December 2014 through December 2017. As of March 31, 2015, $150,000 of the deposits is classified as a current asset.

On April 19, 2013, October 10, 2013 and October 24, 2013, the Company entered into co-development agreements with Ergomed. These three agreements all relate to an overall agreement to work jointly on the clinical development of Multikine. Under the April 2013 agreement, Ergomed will contribute up to $10 million towards the ongoing Phase 3 study in head and neck cancer in the form of offering discounted clinical services in exchange for a single digit percentage of milestone and royalty payments, up to a specified maximum amount, from sales of Multikine. In this first agreement, Ergomed’s contribution towards the study will be a 30% reduction of the amounts billed, up to a maximum of $10 million. In the second agreement, dated October 10, 2013, Ergomed’s contribution will be a 50% reduction of the amounts billed, up to a maximum of $3 million, for the costs of the clinical trial(s) for Multikine in HIV/HPV co-infected women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, or cervical dysplasia. In the third agreement, dated October 24, 2013, Ergomed’s contribution towards the study will be a 50% reduction of the amounts billed, up to a maximum of $3 million, towards the clinical and regulatory costs for trials of Multikine in HIV/HPV co-infected men and women with anal intraepithelial neoplasia or peri-anal warts. The contributions of Ergomed towards the three clinical studies will be a combined maximum of $16 million. Ergomed will be repaid at a rate four times the aggregate amount of discounted clinical services it provides, in the form of a 5% royalty on sales of Multikine and/or 5% of certain payments from licensees of Multikine. By way of example, if Ergomed’s contribution towards the three development programs is the maximum amount of $16 million in reductions of the amounts billed for such programs, then Ergomed will have the right to receive up to $64 million in the form of a 5% royalty on sales of Multikine and/or 5% of certain payments from licensees of Multikine.

The terms of the three Ergomed agreements are the same. The Company will have the right to conduct, and, using commercially reasonable efforts, will have the sole responsibility for the clinical development of, as well as the commercialization and intellectual property maintenance for Multikine and will bear all associated costs for these activities. Ergomed will have primary responsibility for new patient enrollment in the Phase 3 clinical trial.

The terms of the agreements commence on the dates they are signed and expire on the date on which both parties have fulfilled all of their obligations contemplated by the agreements, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the agreements, or unless agreed to in writing by both parties.

The Company accounted for the co-development and revenue sharing agreements in accordance with ASC 808 “Collaborative Arrangements”. The Company determined the payments to Ergomed are within the scope of ASC 730 “Research and Development.” Therefore, the Company will record the discount on the clinical services as a credit to research and development expense on its Statements of Operations. Since the Company entered into the co-development and revenue sharing agreements with Ergomed it has incurred research and development expenses of approximately $11.4 million related to Ergomed’s services. This amount is net of Ergomed’s discount of approximately $3 million. During the six and three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded, net of Ergomed’s discount, approximately $3.2 million and $1.6 million respectively as research and development expense related to Ergomed’s services. During the six and three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded, net of Ergomed’s discount, approximately $1.9 million and $753,000 respectively as research and development expense related to Ergomed’s services.

The Company is currently involved in a pending arbitration proceeding, CEL-SCI Corporation v. inVentiv Health Clinical, LLC (f/k/a PharmaNet LLC) and PharmaNet GmbH (f/k/a PharmaNet AG) . The Company initiated the proceedings against inVentiv Health Clinical, LLC, or inVentiv, the former third-party CRO, seeking at least $50 million in damages related to inVentiv’s prior involvement in the ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial of Multikine. The arbitration claim, initiated under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association, alleges (i) breach of contract, (ii) fraud in the inducement, and (iii) common law fraud. In an amended statement of claim, the Company has also alleged professional malpractice against inVentiv. The Company seeks at least $50 million in damages. The Company filed this arbitration because, among other reasons, the number of patients enrolled and treated in the study fell below the level agreed to with the former CRO.

In connection with the pending arbitration proceedings, inVentiv has asserted counterclaims against us for (i) breach of contract, seeking at least $2 million in damages for services allegedly performed by inVentiv; (ii) breach of contract, seeking at least $1 million in damages for our alleged use of inVentiv’s name in connection with publications and promotions in violation of the parties’ contract; (iii) opportunistic breach, restitution and unjust enrichment, seeking at least $20 million in disgorgement of alleged unjust profits allegedly made by us as a result of the purported breaches referenced in subsection (ii); and (iv) defamation, seeking at least $1 million in damages for allegedly defamatory statements made about inVentiv. The Company believes inVentiv’s counterclaims are meritless and intends to vigorously defend against them. However, if such defense is unsuccessful, and inVentiv successfully asserts any of its counterclaims, such an adverse determination could have a material adverse effect on our business, results, financial condition and liquidity.

The arbitration hearing on the merits has been tentatively rescheduled for October 27, 2015 through November 17, 2015.

Although the arbitrator has allowed both parties to supplement their claims, inVentiv has moved to dismiss the Company’s additional claim for professional malpractice, which the Company is vigorously opposing.

Lease Agreements

In August 2007, the Company leased a building near Baltimore, Maryland. The building was remodeled in accordance with the Company’s specifications so that it can be used by the Company to manufacture Multikine for the Company’s Phase 3 clinical trial and sales of the drug if approved by the FDA. The lease is for a term of twenty years and requires annual base rent to escalate each year at 3%. The Company is required to pay all real and personal property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance expenses, repair costs and utilities. The lease allows the Company, at its election, to extend the lease for two ten-year periods or to purchase the building at the end of the 20-year lease.

The Company was required to deposit the equivalent of one year of base rent in accordance with the contract. When the Company meets the minimum cash balance required by the lease, the deposit will be returned to the Company. The $1,670,917 is included in non-current assets on March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014 .

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s lead investigational therapy, Multikine ® (Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection) , referred to herein as Multikine, is currently being developed as a potential neoadjuvant therapy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Regulatory authorities in 21 countries around the world, including the FDA in the United States, have allowed Multikine to be studied in a global Phase 3 clinical trial for such indication. Multikine is also being used in a Phase 1 study at the Naval Medical Center, San Diego under a CRADA with the U.S. Navy in HIV/HPV co-infected men and women with peri-anal warts.

Multikine is the trademark that the Company has registered for this investigational therapy, and this proprietary name is subject to FDA review in connection with the Company’s future anticipated regulatory submission for approval. Multikine has not been licensed or approved by the FDA or any other regulatory agency. Neither has its safety or efficacy been established for any use.

The Company also owns and is developing a pre-clinical technology called LEAPS (Ligand Epitope Antigen Presentation System).

All of the Company’s projects are under development. As a result, the Company cannot predict when it will be able to generate any revenue from the sale of any of its products.

Since inception, the Company has financed its operations through the sale of equity securities, convertible notes, loans and certain research grants. The Company’s expenses will likely continue to exceed its revenues, if any, as the Company continues the development of Multikine and its other product candidates. Until such time as the Company becomes profitable, if at all, any or all of these financing vehicles or others may be utilized to assist the Company’s capital requirements.

Capital raised by the Company has been expended primarily for patent applications, debt repayment, research and development, administrative costs, and the construction of the Company’s laboratory and manufacturing facilities. The Company does not anticipate realizing significant revenues until it enters into licensing arrangements regarding its technology and know-how or until it receives regulatory approval to sell its product candidates, the likelihood or timing of which are uncertain. As a result, the Company has been dependent primarily upon proceeds from the sale of its securities to meet all of its liquidity and capital requirements and anticipates having to do so in the future.

The Company will be required to raise additional capital or find additional long-term financing in order to continue with its research efforts. The ability of the Company to complete the necessary clinical trials and obtain FDA approval for the sale of product candidates is uncertain. Additional funds may not be available when the Company needs them on terms that are acceptable to the Company, or at all. If adequate funds are not available to the Company on a timely basis, the Company may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate preclinical studies, clinical trials or other development activities for Multikine, LEAPS, or any other product candidates or technologies that the Company develops or acquires, or delay, limit, reduce or terminate the establishment of sales and marketing capabilities or other activities that may be necessary to commercialize the Company product candidates. Ultimately, in order to become profitable, if at all, the Company must complete the development of its product candidates, obtain the appropriate regulatory approvals and obtain sufficient revenues from sales of its product candidates, if approved, to support its cost structure.

The Company estimates that the total remaining cost of the Phase 3 trial, excluding any costs that will be paid by our partners, will be approximately $24.4 million after March 31, 2015. This is in addition to the approximately $20.2 million that we have spent on the trial as of March 31, 2015. This estimate is based on information currently available under our contracts with the CROs responsible for managing the Phase 3 trial. This number may be affected by the rate of patient enrollment, foreign currency exchange rates and many other factors, some of which cannot be foreseen today. It is therefore possible that the cost of the Phase 3 trial will be higher than currently estimated.

In April 2013, the Company replaced the CRO running its Phase 3 clinical trial. This was necessary since the patient enrollment in the study dropped off substantially following a takeover of the CRO which caused most of the members of the CRO’s study team to leave the CRO. The Company hired two CROs to manage the global Phase 3 study: Aptiv and Ergomed, which are both international leaders in managing oncology trials. Ergomed is in charge of all data generation and patient accrual globally, while Aptiv is in charge of data management and data monitoring. As of April 30, 2015, the study had enrolled 437 patients. The centers where the study is being conducted include two centers in Israel where the Company’s partner Teva Pharmaceuticals has the marketing rights, and nine centers in Taiwan where the Company’s partner Orient Europhama has the marketing rights. The Company expects to see a further increase in the number of patients enrolled in the study at an accelerating pace as (i) further centers are added and (ii) treating physicians become more familiar with Multikine.

Although the Company is aiming to enroll 880 patients, the Phase 3 study requires a total of 784 evaluable patients. Ergomed’s goal is to reach full enrollment of the targeted number of 880 patients by the end of 2015; however, the Company is estimating that such enrollment will be completed in March 2016. In order to complete the targeted enrollment of 880 patients by March 2016, the Company is assuming a 4.3% increase in patients enrolled per month based on its enrolling 31 patients during April 2015, up from 29 patients in March 2015, and based on a total enrollment of 437 patients as of April 30, 2015. Following full enrollment of the study, the Company has to wait for 298 events (deaths) in the two comparator arms combined to determine if it has met the primary endpoint, which is a 10% increase in overall survival in the Multikine arm over the comparator arm. The Company estimates that the final data read-out of this Phase 3 clinical trial could occur by the second half of 2017, based on the enrollment projections and estimated survival curves provided in scientific literature.

Of the 437 patients that have been enrolled in the study, uncertainty remains as to whether up to 117 patients enrolled during our former CRO’s tenure as the global manager of the Phase 3 clinical trial will be considered to be evaluable subjects at the close of the study. The Company is currently engaged in a contract dispute alleging that the former CRO failed to comply with the protocol for the Phase 3 clinical trial and applicable regulatory requirements. The Company does not believe that it will need to replace all 117 of these patients, but assuming that all of these patients must be replaced, the Company estimates that it could take an additional two to three months to do so based on the current expectations of enrolling approximately 50 patients per month at the end of the scheduled enrollment period. However, the Phase 3 study design anticipates enrollment of a total of 880 patients, while the statistical analysis requires a total of 784 evaluable patients. Therefore, the actual number of patients enrolled by the former CRO that will need to be replaced and the time needed to do so cannot be determined at this time.

Under the co-development agreement, Ergomed will contribute up to $10 million towards the study in the form of offering discounted clinical services in exchange for a single digit percentage of milestone and royalty payments, up to a specified maximum amount, only from sales of Multikine. Ergomed, a privately-held firm headquartered in Europe with global operations, has entered into multiple similar co-development agreements, including one with Genzyme (purchased by Sanofi in 2011 for over $20 billion). Ergomed will be responsible for the majority of the new patient enrollment since it has a novel model for clinical site management to accelerate patient recruitment and retention. For example, Ergomed has almost 25 physicians who can directly call on clinical sites to aid recruitment and retention. Some of the Ergomed physicians also have the experience of being clinical investigators themselves. The Company believes that this interaction on a physician to physician level is what is needed to help increase enrollment in the Multikine study.

During the six months ended March 31, 2015, the Company’s cash decreased by approximately $5,899,000. Significant components of this decrease include net cash used to fund the Company’s regular operations, including its ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial, of approximately $12,243,000, purchases of equipment of approximately $57,000, patent expenditures of approximately $2,000 and payments on capital leases of approximately $4,000 offset by net proceeds from the sale of the Company’s securities of approximately $6,406,000. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Company’s cash increased by approximately $10,564,000. Significant components of this increase include net proceeds from the sale of the Company’s securities of approximately $19,286,000 and proceeds from the exercise of warrants of approximately $2,509,000 offset by net cash used to fund the Company’s regular operations, including its ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial, of approximately $11,174,000, purchases of equipment of approximately $28,000, capitalized patent expenditures of approximately $25,000 and payments on capital leases of approximately $4,000.

On October 21, 2014, the Company sold 1,320,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, as well as warrants to purchase an additional 330,000 shares of common stock. For every four shares sold, the Company issued to investors in the offering one warrant. The shares of common stock and warrants were sold at a combined price of $0.76 with net proceeds from the offering of approximately $941,000, net of commissions. The common stock and warrants separated immediately. The warrants were immediately exercisable, expire October 11, 2018 and have an exercise price of $1.25.

Additionally, on October 24, 2014 the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 7,894,737 shares of common stock and 1,973,684 warrants to purchase shares of common stock. For every four shares of common stock sold, investors in the offering were issued a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The common stock and warrants were sold at a combined price of $0.76, for net proceeds of approximately $5,550,000, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. The warrants were immediately exercisable, expire October 11, 2018 and have an exercise price of $1.25.

The Company incurred an additional $85,335 in offering costs related to the two offerings, which was charged to additional paid in capital and netted against the cash proceeds.

As of March 31, 2015, the Company had a net tangible book value of $35,156, or $0.00 per share of common stock, based on 91,549,131 shares of common stock outstanding as of that date.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition

During the six and three months ended March 31, 2015, grant and other income increased by approximately $154,000 and $130,000, respectively, compared to the six and three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase is primarily due to the timing of drug shipments to supply the Company’s partner in Taiwan and the grant income received through the Company’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 compared to March 31, 2014.

During the six and three months ended March 31, 2015, research and development expenses increased by approximately $1,717,000 and $882,000 compared to the six and three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company is continuing the Phase 3 clinical trial of Multikine, and research and development fluctuates based on the activity level of the clinical trial.

During the six and three months ended March 31, 2015, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $4,027,000 and $777,000, respectively, compared to the six and three months ended March 31, 2014. Major components of the increase include approximately $3,043,000 and $438,000, respectively, during the six and three months ended March 31, 2015, in employee compensation costs related to the issuance of shareholder approved shares of restricted stock during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and increased legal fees of approximately $872,000 and $382,000, respectively over the six and three month periods, primarily relating to the arbitration with the Company’s former CRO, as discussed in Note G – Commitments and Contingencies, to the Company’s financial statements.

The loss on derivative instruments of approximately $2,620,000 and $4,783,000 for the six and three months ended March 31, 2015 was the result of the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities during the period. The loss on derivative instruments of approximately $5,522,000 and $7,132,000 for the six and three months ended March 31, 2014 was the result of the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities during the period. This change was caused by fluctuations in the share price of the Company’s common stock.

Interest expense was approximately $83,000 and $42,000, respectively, for the six and three months ended March 31, 2015 and consisted primarily of interest expense on the loan from the Company’s president. Interest expense was approximately $80,000 and $38,000, respectively, for the six and three months ended March 31, 2014 and consisted primarily of interest expense on the loan from the Company’s president.

Research and Development Expenses

The Company’s research and development efforts involved Multikine and LEAPS. The table below shows the research and development expenses associated with each project.

	Six months ended March 31,				Three months ended March 31,
	2015		2014		2015		2014

MULTIKINE	$	9,648,426	$	7,986,345	$	4,889,924	$	4,063,868
LEAPS		241,939		187,194		145,620		90,130
TOTAL	$	9,890,365	$	8,173,539	$	5,035,544	$	4,153,998

Clinical and other studies necessary to obtain regulatory approval of a new drug involve significant costs and require several years to complete. The extent of the Company’s clinical trials and research programs are primarily based upon the amount of capital available to the Company and the extent to which the Company has received regulatory approvals for clinical trials. The inability of the Company to conduct clinical trials or research, whether due to a lack of capital or regulatory approval, will prevent the Company from completing the studies and research required to obtain regulatory approval for any products which the Company is developing. Without regulatory approval, the Company will be unable to sell any of its products. Since all of the Company’s projects are under development, the Company cannot predict when it will be able to generate any revenue from the sale of any of its products.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based on its unaudited condensed financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements is based on the selection of accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates, some of which require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes. The Company believes some of the more critical estimates and policies that affect its financial condition and results of operations are in the areas of operating leases and stock-based compensation. For more information regarding the Company’s critical accounting estimates and policies, see Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The application of these critical accounting policies and estimates has been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

The Company has a loan from the president that bears interest at 15%. The Company does not believe that it has any significant exposures to market risk.
