During a business presentation that followed the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 19, 2008, Management mentioned a possible joint venture with Collamatrix LLC for developing and commercializing bone repair treatments. The Corporation also explained the initiative to fund specific clinical trials through Development Agreements with Clinical Partnerships (sometimes referred to as “R&D Partnerships”). The Corporation would then advance the clinical trials, retain all intellectual property and pay a return on the invested amount through future revenues on drug products, if such products become commercialized and if the Corporation realizes cash receipts. In explaining cash difficulties the Corporation experienced in the recent past, Management indicated the Corporation's contract manufacturer, which is an affiliated company and the sole supplier of drug product, received an "eviction notice," which, more accurately, was a 3-day notice to pay or quit, which has since been paid and satisfied and that the Corporation experienced delays in payroll processing on two occasions. Of the Clinical Partnerships being formed which have agreed to contract with the Corporation in Development Agreements, Management noted one initiative is headed up by Philip Frey, Jr. who has executed a sponsorship agreement, one by Karen Wenk-Jordan who is in negotiations with the Corporation, both long-time investors in the Corporation, and one by Dr. H. Christopher Moore who has also executed a sponsorship agreement. In addition to the Clinical Partnerships, Management noted another possible joint venture opportunity in the area of dementia. Management stated the belief that the cash difficulties referred to above will be positively impacted by the Development Agreements.
