NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Description of Business

Cytomedix is a biotechnology company that develops, sells, and licenses regenerative biological therapies, including the AutoloGel^TM System, a device for the production of platelet rich plasma (“PRP”) gel derived from the patient’s own blood. The AutoloGel^TM System is cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for use on a variety of exuding wounds. The Company is currently pursuing a multi-faceted strategy to penetrate the chronic wound market with its AutoloGel^TM System. The Company is also moving forward with the development of other product candidates in its pipeline. Most notably is its CT-112 product, an anti-inflammatory peptide that has shown promise in pre-clinical testing, and for which the Company is currently preparing an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for the FDA.

Note 2 — Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by Cytomedix without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The year-end condensed balance sheet data were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent quarter or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.

Basic and diluted net losses per common share are presented in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“SFAS 128”), for all periods presented. In accordance with SFAS 128, basic and diluted net losses per common share have been computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. During periods of net losses, shares associated with outstanding stock options, stock warrants, and convertible preferred stock are not included because the inclusion would be anti-dilutive (i.e., reduce the net loss per share). The total numbers of such shares excluded from diluted net loss per common share were 7,788,826 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, and 8,173,854 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Note 3 — Capital Stock Activity

The Company issued 708 shares of Common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2008. The following table lists the sources of and the proceeds from those issuances:

Note 4 — Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is prohibited from granting a security interest in the Company’s patents and/or future royalty streams under the terms of the Series A and B Convertible Preferred stock.

Under the Company’s plan of reorganization upon emergence from bankruptcy in July 2002, the Series A Preferred stock and the dividends accrued thereon that existed prior to emergence from bankruptcy are to be exchanged into one share of new Common stock for every five shares of Series A Preferred stock held as of the date of emergence from bankruptcy. This exchange is contingent on the Company’s attaining aggregate gross revenues for four consecutive quarters of at least $10,000,000 prior to July 2009 and would result in the issuance of approximately 325,000 shares of Common stock.

The Company is party to a registration rights agreement and a related warrant agreement with one of its former consultants. The registration rights agreement provides for liquidated damages, at the discretion of the warrant holder, in the event that the registration statement relating to the shares underlying the warrants becomes ineffective. The Company’s obligations under this agreement run through the earlier of April 1, 2012 or two years after the exercise of the related warrants. At the discretion of the warrantholder, the liquidated damages may take the form of cash or additional shares of the Company’s Common stock. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has estimated the maximum undiscounted liquidated damages at $112,500. However, the Company has determined that it is unlikely that circumstances allowing for the aforementioned liquidated damages would arise, and therefore no contingent liability has been recorded.

In conjunction with its FDA clearance, the Company agreed to conduct a post-market surveillance study to further analyze the safety profile of bovine thrombin as used in the AutoloGel^TM System. This study is estimated to cost approximately $500,000 over a period of three years, beginning in the third quarter of 2008.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 4 — Commitments and Contingencies – (continued)

In June 2008, the Company renewed its operating lease for its office space in Rockville, MD which was set to expire in July 2008. Under the terms of the renewed lease, the new expiration date is December 31, 2009 and monthly rent expense is approximately $5,600 from August 2008 through July 2009 and approximately $5,800 thereafter.

Note 5 — Income Taxes

No provision for income taxes has been recorded as there are no taxes payable due to the Company’s significant net operating loss carryforwards. Because the Company has determined that the realization of future benefit from the net operating losses is not assured, the Company has reserved for the entire remaining benefit.

The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The only periods subject to examination for the Company’s federal return are the 2003 through 2006 tax years. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.

The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. There were no such items during the periods covered in this report.

Note 6 — Termination and Consulting Agreement

On June 5, 2008, the Company and Kshitij Mohan, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), entered into a Termination and Consulting Agreement (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which Dr. Mohan agreed, among other things, to step down as the CEO and Chairman and to become a consultant to the Company effective June 30, 2008 (the “Separation Date”).

As part of the Agreement, Dr. Mohan is entitled to the following compensation:

•

$500,000 to be paid in 24 equal monthly installments, beginning in July 2008

•

$5,000 toward legal fees incurred by Dr. Mohan related to this Agreement

•

Continuation of health benefits under the Company’s health insurance plans

The Company recorded $510,000 in compensation expense in the second quarter of 2008 which represents the present value of the above outlined special termination benefits to Dr. Mohan. Additionally, the Company reversed $192,000 in accrued bonus expense for Dr. Mohan. The net expense is reflected in the Salaries and wages line on the Statements of Operations and $268,000 and $242,000, representing the short and long term components of the remaining obligation to Dr. Mohan, are reflected in the Accounts payable and accrued expenses and Other liabilities lines of the Balance Sheets, respectively.

Note 7 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), for financial assets and financial liabilities. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company does not believe that the partial adoption of SFAS 157 has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. In February 2008, the FASB issued a FASB Staff Position (“FSP”), FSP SFAS 157-2,Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, to defer the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The FSP defers the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP SFAS 157-2 to have a significant impact on the financial statements.

CYTOMEDIX, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 7 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements – (continued)

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). This Statement provides companies with an option to measure, at specified election dates, many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently measured at fair value. A company that adopts SFAS 159 will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. This Statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The adoption of SFAS 159 has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 160,Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”), which impacts the accounting for minority interest in the consolidated financial statements of filers. The statement requires the reclassification of minority interest to the equity section of the balance sheet and the results from operations attributed to minority interest to be included in net income. The related minority interest impact on earnings would then be disclosed in the summary of other comprehensive income. The statement is applicable for all fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard will require prospective treatment. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on its results of operations and financial position. However, the adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 141R,Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”), which impacts the accounting for business combinations. The statement requires changes in the measurement of assets and liabilities required in favor of a fair value method consistent with the guidance provided in SFAS 157 (see above). Additionally, the statement requires a change in accounting for certain acquisition related expenses and business adjustments which no longer are considered part of the purchase price. Adoption of this standard is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption of this standard is not permitted. The statement requires prospective application for all acquisitions after the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS 141R will have on its results of operations and financial position. However, the adoption of SFAS 141R is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on its financial statements.

Note 8 — Subsequent Events

On July 31, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved an amendment to the letter agreement by and between the Company and Martin Rosendale, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Under the terms of the amendment, in the event of the Company’s termination of Mr. Rosendale’s employment during the employment term, the Company will be required to pay a one-time severance payment in the amount equal to $50,000 payable subject to customary withholding tax and other employment taxes as may be required under applicable rules and regulations. Mr. Rosendale is not entitled to any such severance payment in the event he voluntarily terminates his agreement with the Company. The Board appointed Mr. Rosendale as Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective as of the date of the previous CEO’s departure.

Description of the Business

Overview

AutoloGel^TM System

Market

Cytomedix’s AutoloGel^TM System currently targets the chronic, non-healing wound market, which the Company estimates to be a $2.2 billion market. Chronic, non-healing wounds typically arise from one of three etiologies: diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and pressure ulcers. The following table lists the incidence of these wound types:

Incidence of Chronic Wounds in the U.S.
(Number of Wounds in Millions)

Source: Advanced Wound Management: Healing and Restoring Lives;
Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed), June 2006


	U.S.
Diabetic Foot Ulcers		1.5
Venous Leg Ulcers		2.5
Pressure Ulcers		2.0
Totals		6.0

The prevalence of chronic wounds in the U.S. is linked directly to increased aging demographics, vascular diseases, venous insufficiency, and excessive pressure and diabetic neuropathy. The prevalence of worldwide chronic wounds is estimated to be 18 million⁽¹⁾.

(1)

Growth Factors: Indications, Products, and Markets; Kalorama Publications; October 2003.

Broadly, the Company divides this market into two categories: 1) Medicare direct reimbursed, and 2) less-Medicare sensitive. The direct reimbursed category includes all treatments that could be eligible for direct reimbursement from Medicare. The less-Medicare sensitive category includes government agencies (including the Veterans Administration (“VA”), Department of Defense, Indian Health Services, and others), capitated environments (including Long-Term Acute Care hospitals (“LTAC”), health maintenance organizations, and others), state Medicaid agencies, and commercial third-party payors (e.g. Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, etc).

The Company believes that within Category 2, LTAC’s and VA’s represent an approximately $500 million market. There are over 400 LTAC facilities in the U.S. accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. There are approximately 1,300 VA facilities and it is estimated that the VA, Department of Defense, and Workers Compensation Programs represent nearly 10% of the total national healthcare expenditures. The Company’s initial focus is on these LTAC and VA facilities as discussed inSales and Marketing below.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Company believes that the wound care market is generally complex and crowded with some products struggling to verifiably demonstrate clinical efficacy. As such, the uptake of new products, including the AutoloGel^TM System, is generally slow, as most new products are met initially with a degree of skepticism. While this represents a challenge in the short-run, the Company believes the skepticism is to its benefit in the long-term, as it seeks to position the AutoloGel^TM System as a, credible wound care alternative addressing the largely unmet clinical need.

FDA Clearance

In September 2007, the Company received FDA marketing clearance for its AutoloGel^TM System. The indications for use are as follows:

“The AutoloGel^TM System is intended to be used at point-of-care for the safe and rapid preparation of platelet rich plasma (PRP) from a small sample of a patient’s own blood. Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, the PRP gel produced by the AutoloGel^TM System is suitable for exuding wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, and diabetic ulcers and for the management of mechanically or surgically debrided wounds.”

This clearance is a broad indication for use that encompasses many wound etiologies as well as debrided wounds. It is the Company’s belief that this also places Cytomedix as the only company with an FDA cleared PRP gel system specifically for use on chronic wounds.

The Company promotes the AutoloGel^TM System within the FDA’s specific marketing clearance for the gel to be used as a wound dressing for the management of these wounds. However, Company-sponsored published and unpublished studies including a prospective randomized blinded, controlled, clinical trial (published in a peer reviewed medical journal) indicate increased wound healing with the use of AutoloGel^TM as compared to published data on enhanced traditional treatments as well as competing treatments for diabetic foot ulcers, which is the Company’s initial focus within its target market. Increased healing is not specifically included in the FDA cleared indication. In the 510(k) process that was used, the claim made by the Company was that its product is substantially equivalent to other products legally on the market and therefore, the indication cleared was similar to that of other wound management products, which had not used healing as an endpoint, to which AutoloGel^TM was compared.

In conjunction with the positive clearance decision from the FDA, the Company agreed to conduct a post-market surveillance program to further analyze the safety profile of bovine thrombin as used in the AutoloGel^TM System. The Company has named this program “TAPS” (The AutoloGel^TM Post-marketing Surveillance). The TAPS program will analyze data from 300 patients over a three year period, does not contain any specific inclusion/exclusion criteria other than following the FDA cleared Instructions for Use, consists of some simple diagnostic blood tests, and is estimated to cost approximately $500,000. However, the Company expects to offset a portion of these costs through contributions from other stakeholders in the outcome of the study and through sales of the AutoloGel^TM System at a reduced price to those sites participating in the TAPS program. In addition to laboratory tests, data describing the wound repair process will be gathered and analyzed. The Company expects to leverage the data generated from this study to use as a tool in its sales and marketing efforts.

AutoloGel^TM Efficacy Studies

Cytomedix has completed several efficacy studies for AutoloGel^TM. The primary study was its prospective, randomized, blinded, controlled, multi-center clinical trial completed in 2005, designed to prove the efficacy and safety of its AutoloGel^TM System for the treatment of non-healing diabetic foot ulcers (the “RCT”). The audited results yielded 40 patients who met the trial protocol. Analysis of the size of wounds in the study showed that 35 out of the 40 patients (88%) had wounds less than or equal to 7 square centimeters in area and 2 cubic centimeters in volume (the “Majority Wound Group”). In the Majority Wound Group, the healing rate for AutoloGel^TM was 81.3% and that for the control group was 42.1%. The difference between these groups is statistically significant, with a p-value of 0.036. Within the full cohort of the 40 patients, 68.4% of the patients treated with AutoloGel^TM achieved full wound closure versus 42.9% of those patients treated in the control group. The difference between these groups is approaching statistical significance with a p-value of 0.125. Generally accepted statistical significance requires a p-value of 0.05 or less. The Company believes,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

based on publicly available data related to full closure for some other products for which such data is available, that the healing rates of AutoloGel^TM at 81.3% for the Majority Wound Group and 68.4% for all wound sizes are higher than any other wound care products cleared by the FDA or reimbursed by Medicare, although this comparison is not a definitive proof of overall clinical performance or superiority since, in order to prove that, one would have to conduct a head-to-head clinical study in which the patients would, at random, be subjected to either AutoloGel^TM or other technologies. Moreover, data on full closure of wounds from prospective, well-controlled, randomized, blinded clinical trials is not available for many wound management products on the market. In the Company’s clinical trial, the control group patients were not on placebo; rather, they were treated using a saline gel cleared by the FDA for wound management. If the control group patients healed at the originally anticipated rate of 20–30% for standard treatments for diabetic foot ulcers, the difference between the healing rates in the AutoloGel^TM group versus the control group could have been even more strongly statistically significant.

The Company has completed several other prospective and retrospective case studies, wound registries, and/or non-randomized trials. The results of these studies are consistent with the healing rates for AutoloGel^TM experienced in the RCT described above.

Cytomedix believes that the efficacy of AutoloGel^TM is directly linked to its formulation which includes specific centrifugation parameters, platelet concentrations, and reagents, all of which enjoy patent protection through at least early 2019 in the United States and several other countries.

Economic Study

In September 2007, B&D Consulting, an independent, national, advisory and advocacy firm located in Washington, DC, (“B&D”) completed a Company-commissioned cost effectiveness analysis of AutoloGel^TM as compared to certain alternative, advanced therapies for patients with diabetic foot ulcers (the “Economic Study”). Results of the Economic Study show that AutoloGel^TM “dominates” other therapies analyzed therein.

B&D developed the research methodology, model structure, assumptions, and inputs from the peer-reviewed literature, including the publication of Cytomedix’s RCT. Cytomedix paid B&D a one-time, fixed fee for its work. This fee was not dependent on the results of the Economic Study.

The estimated 5-year average direct wound care costs (exclusive of lost work, disability, etc.) when AutoloGel^TM was used to treat the most commonly sized diabetic foot ulcers was approximately $15,000. This was markedly less than similar costs ranging from approximately $24,000 to $47,000 when either standard of care or advanced therapies were simulated. Furthermore, the model suggests a measurable increase in Quality Adjusted Life Years (“QALY”) (a function of increased survival rates and fewer wound complications) when AutoloGel^TM is used. Data from published articles of alternative treatments utilized in this model included such therapies as standard of care alone, tissue engineered grafts, ultrasound, and single growth factor therapies. Therapies that did not have published, peer-reviewed studies of their use in diabetic foot ulcers, with full wound healing as the primary endpoint, were not considered in the Economic Study. The Company may submit this study for publication in the near future.

Sales and Marketing

The Company’s focus is currently on the market that is less sensitive to Medicare reimbursement (i.e. the less-Medicare sensitive market). In the first half of 2008 it initiated a deliberate strategic launch designed to refine/perfect the sales approach for the AutoloGel^TM System and provide incremental investment in the sales and marketing efforts.

Within the current target market, Cytomedix has focused most of its attention to the LTAC’s and the VA Medical Centers. Its sales in 2008 have largely been generated from these facilities. In the second half of 2008, it plans to continue to ramp up its sales efforts to this subset of its current target market, and will also initiate efforts to obtain selected commercial insurance reimbursement and expand state Medicaid coverage. Regarding commercial insurance, the Company will focus its efforts in high opportunity regions with a select group of insurers, in order to evaluate the prospects for this payment pathway. Although commercial insurers, as part of their coverage determinations, may consider the non-coverage status with Medicare (see below), they are independent organizations and Cytomedix believes the data contained in the Economic Study and

TABLE OF CONTENTS

clinical data discussed above may be attractive to these payors. Regarding Medicaid, the Company currently enjoys coverage in Illinois and Minnesota, and will seek to expand that to other states where it has adequate sales representation.

The Sales and Marketing department is currently comprised of a VP of Sales and Marketing, five regional sales representatives (increasing to six in the third quarter of 2008), and part-time support in the areas of product management and administration. The Company’s VP of Professional Services will also be devoting significant time to interfacing with existing and prospective customers on a clinician-to-clinician basis, primarily to explain the medical and clinical advantages of AutoloGel^TM as compared to other treatment modalities. The Company generally outsources graphic design and other marketing-related activities as well as reimbursement strategy consulting.

The Company has exhibited and presented at several trade shows in support of the deliberate strategic launch strategy and expects that to continue. Its sales efforts have also been supported by a focused print advertising and direct mail campaign.

While the Company saw modest growth in sales dollars comparing the second quarter of 2008 to the first quarter in the same year, it will look to future quarters as an indication of the effectiveness of its sales and marketing strategy.

Medicare Reimbursement

In March 2008, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) re-affirmed its 2003 decision of non-coverage for PRP gel, which would include AutoloGel^TM. Although the less-Medicare sensitive market is significant, the Company believes the full market potential of the AutoloGel^TM System requires Medicare reimbursement. Therefore, it plans to continue to work with CMS and ultimately seek a positive coverage decision.

The Company met with CMS in the latter part of April 2008 to determine the optimal path forward for obtaining Medicare coverage for its AutoloGel^TM System. While CMS does not provide specific commitments regarding any future decision on coverage, the Company sought and received from CMS valuable guidance on the data and information that are likely to be useful during any future reconsideration of the Company’s request for a National Coverage Determination (NCD) supporting the use of its AutoloGel^TM System on chronic wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers. Based on the discussions with CMS, and its decision memorandum in which it denied the Company’s request for coverage for the use of platelet gel in chronic wounds, Cytomedix believes a new, prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded study (the highest level of evidence) may be the best route to gather additional data to meet CMS’ requirements for a favorable coverage decision. In its decision memorandum, CMS stated that the results of the clinical trial conducted by Cytomedix, with other studies presented for review, were “suggestive” but “inadequate” to satisfy the CMS requirement that a therapy should be “reasonable and necessary” to be covered. Therefore, the Company believes that a future prospective study which yields favorable data supporting the results of the previous trial is likely to be the most efficient and cost effective means to meet CMS’ requirements. As discussed with CMS, the Company will draft a protocol for a study to gather additional data on AutoloGel^TM. This draft protocol will be submitted to CMS for review and further refinement prior to the commencement of enrollment in the study. While the full scope and size of the study is yet to be determined, Cytomedix believes that it may be less complex, less time-consuming, and less expensive than its previous RCT. The Company is making the necessary preparations to begin such a new study, but has not yet made any significant financial commitments in that regard. The Company is evaluating the optimal timing for the initiation of such a study. The Company can provide no assurance that by submitting data from a study pursuant to the most recent CMS guidance, as described above, it will be successful in its efforts to gain a favorable National Coverage Determination.

The Company is also seeking to build momentum toward a favorable decision by increasing the usage of AutoloGel^TM in the marketplace through its sales and marketing efforts, expanding coverage by state Medicaid agencies (Illinois and Minnesota currently reimburse for AutoloGel^TM), seeking reimbursement from commercial third-party payors, and will consider other avenues as deemed appropriate.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Other Opportunities

The Company is seeking to identify other markets for its AutoloGel^TM System. Process, formulation, and device improvements will extend the Company’s market reach. 510(k) submissions, later in 2008, for improvements in the AutoloGel^TM System will expand the cleared indicated uses and increase the markets accessible through promotional activities. In particular, the Company plans to seek 510(k) clearance for use of the AutoloGel^TM System to create PRP for use in orthopedic indications. This clearance would be similar to that held by several of the Company’s licensees who service the surgical market. The Company may seek strategic partnerships as the best means to address the markets outside of chronic wounds. Other markets where AutoloGel^TM may also be relevant are:

•

Hair transplantation and/or hair growth

•

Angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels)

•

Application system for biologics, synthetics

•

Delivery system for stem cells

There is no assurance that the Company will be commercially successful in any of these areas.

Anti-inflammatory Peptide

Cytomedix recently announced plans for entering the multi-billion dollar anti-inflammatory market with patent protected peptides derived from Platelet Factor 4 (PF4), a growth factor released when blood platelets are activated. The Company’s initial peptide, designated CT-112, was discovered early in the research of platelet derived growth factors.

Pre-clinical animal studies have indicated that the CT-112 peptide may be active for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Crohn’s Disease, Tissue Reperfusion Injury and other related medical conditions. The studies further indicated that CT-112 may be administered orally, unlike other anti-inflammatory drugs currently on the market which are administered via injection or infusion.

The Company is focusing on Rheumatoid Arthritis (“RA”) as the initial indication for CT-112. The RA market is in excess of $12 billion annually, with three leading biologic products: Enbrel, Humira, and Remicade. Each one of these therapies is administered via injection or infusion and each has experienced serious adverse events.

In animal models, CT-112 was shown to reduce arthritis severity. It was shown to prevent bone and cartilage erosion, preserve joint architecture, and decrease the amount of plasma IL-1. Further, CT-112 was shown to be bio-available when administered orally which indicates that it may be administered as a pill. This could significantly ease the delivery to patients and is in contrast to existing, comparable therapies, many of which are injectibles.

Toxicology studies indicate that CT-112 is not mutagenic and there was no toxicity in a number of animal studies; in fact it was well tolerated over a wide range of doses from low to high. Though it cannot provide any assurance to the contrary, the Company believes that it may not result in the type of serious side effects that have plagued other therapies in the field, including increased rates of heart attack and infection.

The Company has initiated contact with the FDA’s Office of Drug Evaluation II, is currently preparing its IND application, and plans to submit it to the FDA by the end of 2008. The Company believes that the IND approval process generally takes approximately four months. If approved, the Company intends to move into a Phase I clinical trial. The Company estimates total costs of the IND application and Phase I clinical trial to be approximately $500,000.

The discovery of CT-112 in the mid 1990s, resulted during the research of platelet derived growth factors which led to the development of the Company’s Autologel System^TM. Since then, there have been further advances in peptide manufacturing technology and the understanding of the science underpinning such compounds. In addition, there is an increasing demand for new pharmaceutical products, particularly for anti-inflammatory compounds.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Company would likely seek strategic partnerships for the further development of CT-112. Such partnerships would likely be milestone based and restricted to single indications as pre-clinical studies indicate that the compound could be appropriate for multiple conditions.

The Company’s CT-112 peptide is covered by patents through mid 2015 in the United States and mid 2014 in several European countries and Japan. Furthermore, the product meets all the criteria of the Patent Restoration Act and therefore the Company expects that the U.S. patent may be extended for an additional three to five years.

Other Patents

The Company holds patents in other areas such as angiogenic peptides and is continually assessing new opportunities to create or in-license other intellectual property assets.

Licensing

The Company has firmly established its intellectual property rights arising from its process patents regarding the use of platelet releasates to heal damaged tissue. Over several years it has reached settlement and/or licensing agreements with numerous companies infringing or seeking to avoid infringement of the Company’s patents as listed in the table below. The underlying patents expire in late November 2009.

Cytomedix has two license agreements with DePuy Spine, Inc. The original license agreement was dated March 19, 2001, subsequently amended on March 3, 2005, and provides for the use of applications under Cytomedix patents in the fields of diagnostic and therapeutic spinal, neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery. The second license agreement is dated March 4, 2005, and applies to all fields not covered in the original license agreement as amended.

(2)

Certain minimum royalties may apply to certain agreements and other royalty percentages may apply to future products covered under selected license agreements.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(3)

Some of these amounts are payable over a period of time as defined in executed notes payable to Cytomedix.

(4)

These dates reflect the expiration of the license in the U.S., which coincides with the expiration of the Knighton Patent in the U.S. In some cases, the licensing agreements applicable to territories outside the U.S. extend to the expiration of the patents in the respective foreign countries.

(5)

The Settlement and License Agreement with Biomet Biologics, Inc. (“Biomet”) called for a $2.6 million payout from Biomet to Cytomedix. This payout took the form of $1.4 million payable upon execution of the agreement and $100,000 payable at the end of each of 12 consecutive quarters beginning with the quarter ending September 2006. These payments are not tied to any performance commitments by Cytomedix and are not dependent on Biomet sales.

For DePuy, CellMedix, and Smith and Nephew, the lump sum payments represent up-front fees for the prospective period from contract execution through termination that are in addition to any ongoing royalty percentage. For all other licensees, the up-front fees represent settlements for past patent infringement.

Recent Changes in the Company’s Executive Management

On June 5, 2008, Kshitij Mohan and the Company entered into a Termination and Consulting Agreement pursuant to which Dr. Mohan agreed, among other things, to step down as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors and to become a consultant to the Company effective June 30, 2008. The terms and provisions of this agreement are discussed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 10, 2008, which discussion is incorporated by reference herein.

Effective as of July 1, 2008, following Dr. Mohan’s departure, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the appointment of Martin Rosendale as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Prior to that appointment, Mr. Rosendale served as Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer of Cytomedix. In connection with this appointment, the Company and Mr. Rosendale entered into a letter agreement setting forth the terms of his employment with the Company. Such terms and provisions of this agreement are discussed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 18, 2008, which discussion is incorporated by reference herein.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2008 and 2007

Currently, the Company’s revenues are primarily earned through its licensing agreements. These revenues, net of related royalty and contingent legal fees, represent the primary source of cash from operations for the Company. Sales of the Company’s products are modest. The Company’s revenues are generally insufficient to cover its operating expenses. Operating expenses primarily consist of employee compensation, professional fees, consulting expenses, and other general business expenses such as insurance, rent, and sales and marketing related items.

Cash generated from the Company’s licensing agreements is wholly dependent on covered sales generated by its licensees, which are entirely outside of the Company’s control. Although these revenues are entirely dependent on licensee sales and the Company cannot assure that these levels will continue, licensing revenues overall have been fairly stable in the recent past and the Company therefore believes that historical results of its licensing activities are a reasonable indicator of future performance in this area. Cash outflows from operations generally result from operating expenses. The Company does not believe that historical results are indicative of future expense levels as such future expense levels will likely change as developments warrant. For example, the Company has begun further investment in its sales and marketing efforts in conjunction with its product launch and on-going sales efforts now that FDA marketing clearance has been obtained.

In late September 2007, the Company received FDA clearance to market its AutoloGel^TM System. In the first quarter of 2008, Cytomedix initiated a deliberate strategic launch of its AutoloGel^TM System, targeting selected venues within the less-Medicare sensitive market such as Veterans Administration and Long-term Acute Care facilities. Also in the first quarter of 2008, CMS completed its National Coverage Assessment and reaffirmed its non-coverage of autologous blood derived products when used on chronic wounds. Although CMS’ confirmation of its prior non-coverage determination will not affect the Company’s current sales and marketing strategy, which targets the less-Medicare sensitive market, it will delay indefinitely the Company’s ability to access the broader market. The Company has met with CMS and is preparing a protocol for its

TABLE OF CONTENTS

review, as the Company has determined that a new study with results supporting those from its RCT would be the most effective means of obtaining a reversal of CMS’ non-coverage decisions.

Certain numbers in this section have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Revenues

Revenues fell $79,000 (16%) to $428,000 and rose $94,000 (10%) to $1,055,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, to the same periods last year. Revenues are normally generated from two sources: the sale of the Company’s products and royalties received from licensing activities.

For the three month period, the decrease was primarily due to lower royalty revenues ($98,000), partially offset by increased product sales ($18,000). The lower royalty revenue was primarily due to reduced sales by one licensee whose main customer was slow to replenish its inventory of covered products. The increased product sales reflect the Company’s investment in its sales and marketing efforts.

For the six month period, the increase was due to higher royalty revenues ($68,000) and increased product sales ($26,000). The royalties are directly dependent on sales of covered products by licensees, over which the Company exercises no control. The increased product sales reflect the Company’s investment in its sales and marketing efforts.

The Company plans to devote further resources to its efforts in the sales and marketing areas in the coming quarters.

Gross Profit

Gross profit rose $77,000 (31%) to $321,000 and $269,000 (58%) to $731,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, to the same periods last year. For the same periods, gross margins rose to 75% and 69% from 48% and 48%, respectively.

For the three month period, the increase in gross profit was primarily due to improved margins driven by reduced contingent legal fees pursuant to the Company’s agreement with its patent counsel reached on August 2, 2007 and a slight shift in revenue to the higher margin product revenue.

For the six month period, the increase in gross profit was due to the higher revenue discussed above and improved margins. The improved margins were driven by reduced contingent legal fees pursuant to the Company’s agreement with its patent counsel reached on August 2, 2007 and a slight shift in revenue to the higher margin product revenue.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses rose $697,000 (76%) to $1,616,000 and $953,000 (47%) to $2,992,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, to the same periods last year. A discussion of the various components of Operating expenses follows below.

Salaries and Wages

Salaries and wages rose $460,000 (105%) to $896,000 and $634,000 (80%) to $1,431,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, to the same periods last year.

For the three month period, the increase was primarily due to the accrual of the present value of a severance package for the former CEO ($510,000) and more employees in 2008, partially offset by the reversal of the bonus accrual for the former CEO ($192,000).

For the six month period, the increase was primarily due to the accrual of the present value of a severance package for the former CEO ($510,000), increased equity-based compensation ($122,000), and more employees in 2008, partially offset by the reversal of the bonus accrual for the former CEO ($192,000).

Consulting Expenses

Consulting expenses fell $17,000 (51%) to $16,000 and $44,000 (45%) to $53,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, to the same periods last year.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

For the three and six month periods, the decrease was primarily due to reduced fees associated with the Company’s efforts to secure FDA clearance for its AutoloGel^TM System, said clearance being obtained in September 2007, and lower fees related to the Company’s efforts related to CMS’s re-consideration of coverage for PRP gel, which concluded in March 2008.

Professional Fees

Professional fees rose $1,000 (1%) to $161,000 and $23,000 (5%) to $518,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, to the same periods last year.

For the three month period, the increase was insignificant.

For the six month period, increased legal fees ($75,000) primarily associated with the Company’s efforts to secure CMS coverage for AutoloGel^TM and ongoing patent maintenance activities, mostly offset by reduced audit fees ($53,000), resulted in this nominal change. Professional fees consist primarily of legal and accounting services.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses rose $253,000 (87%) to $543,000 and $340,000 (52%) to $990,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, to the same periods last year.

For the three month period, the increase was primarily due to increased equity-based compensation to the Board of Directors and outside service providers ($50,000), increased marketing expense ($45,000), increased travel expense related to sales, business development, and investor relations efforts ($30,000), increased personnel placement fees ($24,000), increased insurance expense ($22,000) as the Company recorded a refund in 2007, and minor increases in various other expenditures.

For the six month period, the increase was primarily due to increased equity-based compensation to the Board of Directors and outside service providers ($66,000), increased marketing expense ($62,000), increased personnel placement fees ($52,000), increased travel expense related to sales, business development, and investor relations efforts ($34,000), increased administrative support services ($26,000), and minor increases in various other expenditures.

Other Income/Expenses

Other income fell $28,000 (38%) to $45,000 and $43,000 (27%) to $113,000 comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, to the same periods last year. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to lower interest income earned on cash invested in money market accounts and notes receivable balances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The cash position of the Company at June 30, 2008 was approximately $3,937,000. The Company believes that it will have adequate cash on hand to fund operations for the next twelve months, based on the current level of licensing revenues and operating expenditures.

Additional cash may be required if operating revenues do not materialize or the cost of operations increases. Furthermore, additional cash would likely be required for the Company to pursue all elements of its strategic plan. Specifically, additional cash would likely be required to complete a Phase I study for CT-112, accelerate investment in the sales and marketing areas beyond what is currently forecasted, effect significant new product development or modifications, and pursue certain other attractive opportunities for the Company. However, the timing of such activities is at the Company’s discretion. The Company is exploring potential strategic partnerships for some of these endeavors, which could likely offset at least a portion of the capital that would be required by the Company. The Company continuously assesses the state of the capital markets and its access to capital. It weighs the cost of capital against the expected benefits of accelerating the pursuit of certain strategic objectives.

The Company has certain warrants that are callable, subject to certain requirements including a minimum per share price ranging from $4 to $6, at an aggregate exercise price of approximately $2.2 million.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures except for a commitment to purchase a minimum number of centrifuges totaling approximately $45,000. However, the Company does plan to conduct a post-market surveillance study per its understanding reached with the FDA. The Company estimates that this new study will cost approximately $500,000 over the next three years, and of that amount, approximately $200,000 will be expended in the next 12 months.

Because the Company was in bankruptcy in 2002, the Company may not be able to obtain debt financing. All working capital required to implement the Company’s business plan will be provided by funds obtained through offerings of its equity securities, and revenues generated by the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital if and when needed, and, even if needed capital is raised, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its strategic goals. To continue its operations and complete the implementation of its current business plan, the Company will likely require additional long-term financing. There are no assurances that such financing will be available, or if available, it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. Any financing may result in significant dilution.

Contractual Obligations

Prospects for the Future

Cytomedix’s near-term success is primarily dependent on the success of the AutoloGel^TM System, and the Company believes that AutoloGel^TM has a reasonable chance for success in the marketplace. First and foremost, the Company believes that, based on the results of the Company’s clinical trial and other clinical data as well as the results of a pharmaco-economic study, the AutoloGel^TM System provides substantial clinical benefit for diabetic foot ulcers and is more cost effective than most other wound treatments. Additionally, based on available clinical data and experience, the Company believes that AutoloGel^TM offers similar clinical and cost advantages when used to treat other chronic and open cutaneous wounds. The Company owns the patents on the process for utilizing platelet gel for treating damaged tissue and wound healing through 2009, which is the basis of its license agreements, and for the specific formulation of AutoloGel^TM, which it believes provides several competitive advantages, and which patents expire in 2019.

The Company believes that the FDA’s recent marketing clearance for the AutoloGel^TM System has increased the prospects for success. A key restriction on the Company’s ability to market AutoloGel^TM for its intended use has been removed and the Company has launched its product in the first quarter of 2008.

However, the recent CMS decision to continue its non-coverage of autologous blood-derived products when used on chronic wounds is a setback to the Company’s overall strategy. Although CMS’s confirmation of its prior non-coverage determination will not affect the Company’s current sales and marketing strategy which targets the less-Medicare sensitive market, it will indefinitely delay the Company’s ability to access the broader market for its products. The Company will be targeting segments of the direct reimbursed market by seeking coverage from commercial insurers as discussed previously in this report.

The deliberate strategic launch of the AutoloGel System^TM in 2008 is providing valuable feedback as the Company seeks to best position its products in the marketplace and develop the most efficient and effective sales approach. The Company does anticipate modest increases in sales, though it is not currently providing any forecasts due to its short history with the FDA cleared system. The results of the Company’s on-going sales efforts through 2008 will reflect on the potential for AutoloGel^TM’s success in the chronic wound marketplace.

The Company believes that its CT-112 anti-inflammatory peptide represents an attractive opportunity and will pursue it aggressively. Although there is no assurance that such results will be confirmed in subsequent clinical trials, the Company is encouraged by the results of the pre-clinical studies from both a safety and efficacy perspective. Such results, combined with the early indication that the compound may be suitable in pill form, the significant reductions in peptide manufacturing costs over the past decade, and the magnitude of the RA and other inflammatory disease markets are the basis on which the Company is seeking to move into human

trials. However, although early data is promising, no reasonable conclusion can yet be drawn about CT-112’s prospects in the marketplace. FDA approval of an IND is the next critical milestone toward the development of CT-112.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 160,Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”), which impacts the accounting for minority interest in the consolidated financial statements of filers. The statement requires the reclassification of minority interest to the equity section of the balance sheet and the results from operations attributed to minority interest to be included in net income. The related minority interest impact on earnings would then be disclosed in the summary of other comprehensive income. The statement is applicable for all fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard will require prospective treatment. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on its results of operations and financial position. However, the adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on its financial statements.

Forward-looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part I, Item 2, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When the words “believes,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “will likely result,” “will continue,” “projects,” “expects,” and similar expressions are used in this Form 10-Q, they are intended to identify “forward-looking statements,” and such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. The Company’s forward-looking statements generally relate to regulatory efforts, reimbursement efforts, licensing activities, intellectual property rights, product development, sales initiatives, and market acceptance of its products. Furthermore, the Company’s plans, strategies, objectives, expectations and intentions are subject to change at any time at the discretion of management and the Board. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Actual events, transactions and results may materially differ from the anticipated events, transactions or results described in such statements. Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that such expectations will materialize. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s forward looking statements.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date this report is filed. The Company cannot assure the reader that the projected results will be achieved. The Company undertakes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements contained in this report to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as may occur as part of its ongoing periodic reports filed with the SEC.

Given these uncertainties, the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company does not enter into financial instruments for speculation or trading purposes. In accordance with the Company’s investment policy, cash is to be invested in bank and institutional money market funds, or in T-Bills or short-term T-Notes. At June 30, 2008, the Company’s cash balance of approximately $3.9 million was maintained primarily in an institutional money market account, sensitive to changes in the general level of interest rates. Based on the Company’s cash balances at June 30, 2008, a 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would have an approximately $39,000 impact on the Company’s annual interest income and net loss. Actual changes in rates may differ from the hypothetical assumption used in computing this exposure.

The Company does not presently have any derivative financial instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required by the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered in this report, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures was carried out with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (“Certifying Officers”). This evaluation included the items described in management’s report on internal control over financial reporting included in Item 9A of the 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 25, 2008 (the “2007 10-K). Based on and as of the date of such evaluation and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, the Certifying Officers concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In light of the material weaknesses described below, additional analysis and other post-closing procedures were performed to ensure the Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

As determined in connection with the 2007 10-K, the Company did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy over certain financial statement note disclosures related to SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Specifically, controls over the processes and procedures related to the determination and review of the financial statement note disclosures in this area were not adequate to ensure that the financial statement notes were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This control deficiency, which continues to exist as of June 30, 2008, could result in a misstatement of the note disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the Company’s interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

Also as determined in connection with the 2007 10-K, the Company did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy over the calculation of stock-based compensation expense and the related financial statement note disclosures. Specifically, controls over the processes and procedures related to the determination of the compensation amounts and the determination and review of the financial statement note disclosures were not adequate to ensure that the compensation amount and the related financial statement notes were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This control deficiency, which continues to exist as of June 30, 2008, resulted in the restatement of the Company’s quarterly and annual reports for 2006 on Forms 10-Q/A and 10-K/A and the Company’s first two quarterly reports for 2007 on Forms 10-Q/A to correct the Company’s stock-based compensation expense. Additionally, this material weakness could result in a misstatement of the stock-based compensation expense and the related note disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the Company’s interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

The Company commenced remedial actions in 2007 to correct and strengthen the internal controls in those areas where material weaknesses were identified. These remedial actions are described in detail in the Company’s Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2007 and included (i) formation of a Disclosure Committee to improve the execution of the Company’s controls over financial disclosure, (ii) identification and implementation of a software solution to reduce the risk of error in accounting for stock-based compensation and (iii) monitoring the effectiveness of the Disclosure Committee’s performance and the software solution for stock-based compensation to ensure that they have yielded the desired effect of mitigating the identified material weaknesses in the future. The remedial efforts are now exclusively in the monitoring phase and are expected to conclude in 2008. During this period, the Company continued to monitor the effects of the remedial actions taken in 2007.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2008, there were no changes identified that would have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as set forth below, there were no material changes from the risk factors as previously disclosed on the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The Contemplated Additional Study May Not Yield Sufficient or Favorable Data for CMS to Reconsider Its Prior Non-Coverage Determination

In March 2008, CMS reaffirmed its 2003 non-coverage decision for PRP gel, which would include AutoloGel^TM. Following CMS’s decision, the Company met with CMS in April 2008 to discuss the optimal path for securing future coverage for AutoloGel^TM. Following this discussion, the Company began developing a protocol and planning a new study to gather the additional data on AutoloGel^TM necessary to satisfy to meet CMS requirements and secure Medicare coverage. There is no assurance that the additional study contemplated by the Company, if and when the Company determines to undertake it, will yield sufficient or timely data that would result in CMS’s reconsideration or reversal of its prior non-coverage decision relating to AutoloGel^TM. Further, the Company has yet to determine the scope of such study, and therefore, it cannot yet accurately estimate the associated costs, but it is probable that additional financing will be required to conduct this study. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such financing on terms acceptable to the Company or that it will be sufficient to cover the costs associated with the contemplated study.

Clinical Trials May Fail To Demonstrate The Safety Or Efficacy Of CT-112 Peptides, Which Could Prevent Or Significantly Delay Regulatory Approval And Prevent The Company From Raising Additional Financing

Based on the results of the pre-clinical animal studies done on the Company’s CT-112 peptide, the Company plans to pursue further development of this product for the treatment of certain inflammatory diseases. All of the Company’s product candidates, including CT-112 peptides, are subject to the risks of failure inherent in the development of biotherapeutic products. The results of early-stage clinical trials of the Company’s product candidates do not necessarily predict the results of later-stage clinical trials. Product candidates in later-stage clinical trials may fail to demonstrate desired safety and efficacy traits despite having successfully progressed through initial clinical testing. Even if Cytomedix believes the data collected from clinical trials of its product candidates is promising, this data may not be sufficient to support approval by the FDA or any other U.S. or foreign regulatory body. Pre-clinical and clinical data can be interpreted in different ways. Accordingly, FDA officials could reach different conclusions in assessing such data than does the Company, which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval. Any failure or delay in completing clinical trials for the Company’s product candidates, or in receiving regulatory approval for the sale of any product candidates, has the potential to materially harm its business, and may prevent it from raising necessary, additional financing that it may need in the future. There is no assurance that the Company will obtain the necessary FDA approval of an IND in connection with the peptide and therefore may never be able to proceed with human clinical trials. Finally, there is no assurance that the Company will succeed in developing CT-112 as anticipated, that development of CT-112 will proceed according to the timeline planned by the Company or that the necessary additional capital and/or strategic partnership will be available on conditions acceptable to the Company.
