PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our common stock. You should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the section entitled “Risk Factors” and our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus, before making an investment decision. References in this prospectus to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws refer to the certificate of incorporation and bylaws as the same shall be in effect upon the completion of this offering. Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, references in this prospectus to “we,” “our” and“us” refer to Millenia Hope Bio-Pharma.

HOW WE ARE ORGANIZED AND OUR OPERATIONS
We were incorporated in Canada on January 13, 2000 under the Canada Business Corporations Act, or CBCA. Our authorized capital is unlimited and upon a unanimous decision of the Board of Directors, we limited the authorized capital to 280,000,000 common shares and 50,000,000 preferred shares, both we a par value of $.0001 per share. Millenia Hope Biopharma (MH-B) is a Montreal-based biotechnology company focused on exploiting major advancements in accessing a source of biologically active compounds, plants, to discover, develop and produce new products for human health and well being. We commenced our commercial activity on February 14, 2006. We are a majority owned subsidiary of Millenia Hope, Inc. , a 1934 Exchange Act company quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “MLHP.”
We have developed patented proprietary enabling Phytomics Technologies that allow access to the potential of the plant kingdom’s untapped diversity of chemicals, found therein. To exploit its unique chemical capabilities, we have developed a distinctive Plant Product Discovery Platform combining today’s biological target-based discovery processes and Phytomics to efficiently discover novel products for the health industry.
With the scarcity of structurally diverse small molecules being explicitly linked to the health industry’s dearth of new product approvals, MH-B’s ability to continuously generate a large number of structurally diverse and biologically active phytomolecules addresses one of the major causes of the industry’s current malaise.
MH-B is leveraging its Phytomics and Plant Product Discovery Platforms to build a high-value proprietary and partnered pipeline of important plant-derived products for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries and to develop proprietary Phytomics-based bioprocesses for the industrial scale production of complex phytoproducts of commercial relevance. To date, and since its commercialization, we have had only insignificant sales.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND US
Our corporate offices are located at 500, Cartier boulevard West, 4th Floor, Laval, Quebec, Canada H7V 5B7. Our telephone number is (514) 288-8822 and our facsimile number is (514) 935-9758.
OFFERING
We are not offering any securities for sale. All shares are being registered for our selling shareholders.
An investment in our common stock involves a substantial risk of loss. You should consider carefully the following risks and other information contained in this prospectus before you decide whether to purchase our common stock. If any of these risks should actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer significantly. As a result, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should not invest in our common stock unless you can afford to lose your entire investment and you are not dependent on the funds you are investing.
WE EXPECT TO INCUR LOSSES FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE AND MAY NEVER BECOME PROFITABLE
We currently estimate that we will require between $1.5 million and $2.0 million in operating capital over the next twelve months before any planned capital expenditures. If additional funds have to be raised through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of our current shareholders will be reduced and such equity securities may have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock.
Although we believe our existing capital resources, interest income derived therefrom, revenues from commercial activities, debt financing and reimbursable research tax credits should be sufficient to fund its anticipated level of operations through November 2008, there can be no assurance that our business or operations will not change in a manner that would consume available resources more rapidly than anticipated. Our capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including:
|
|
|
| • | Changes in our existing collaborative relationships; |
|
|
|
| • | The need to increase research and development spending as a result of projects advancing at a faster pace and/or the discovery of a greater than anticipated number of compounds of therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical interest or to be on the same plane as our competitors; |
|
|
|
| • | The cost of filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights; and |
|
|
|
| • | The purchase of additional capital equipment necessary to ensure that its operations keep up with the pace of development. |
We anticipate that we will be required to raise additional capital over a period of years in order to continue to expand our operations and to improve our technologies. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on terms favorable to us or our shareholders, if at all. Moreover, our cash requirements may vary materially due to production yield problems, research and development results, product testing results, changing relationships with our corporate partners, changes in the focus and direction of our research and development programs, competitive and technological advances, litigation and other factors. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail operations significantly or to obtain funds through entering into collaboration agreements on unattractive terms that may require us to relinquish certain technology or product rights, including patent and other intellectual property rights. Our inability to raise capital would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
7
We expect to incur substantial costs for the foreseeable future, as a result of increasing expenditures in our research and development budget, including costs associated with conducting preclinical testing and clinical trials, and regulatory compliance activities.
Our chances for achieving profitability will depend on numerous factors, including success in:
|
|
|
| - | developing and testing product candidates; |
|
|
|
| - | achieving milestones under our collaboration agreements; |
|
|
|
| - | receiving regulatory approvals |
|
|
|
| - | commercializing our product and/or process; agreements; |
|
|
|
| - | establishing our competitive position; |
Many of these factors will depend on circumstances beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will ever become profitable.
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in the immediate short-term future as we prepare for the full implementation of our business plan. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues in the future to offset or exceed additional costs to implement our full business plan. Failure to generate sufficient revenues will seriously impair our ability to continue operations.
THE COMPANY IS AT AN EARLY STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT AND HAS NOT BEEN PROFITABLE FOR ANY SERIOUS LENGTH OF TIME
We are -at an early stage of development and have not yet shown that we have the ability to be profitable for any substantial period of time from its inception. Our planned expansion of our operations will result in significant expenses over the next few years that may not be offset completely by revenues. We expect that a majority of our revenues for the short and medium term will be dependent upon our ability to advance both our partnered and internal product discovery and production programs. To date, the majority of funding received by us has been from equity financings of our parent company. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve sustained profitability. Due to our limited operating history, it is difficult to predict when, if ever, we will be substantially profitable. If our revenues don’t materialize or if our operating expenses exceed our expectations and revenue streams, our business will be adversely affected.
THE COMPANY’S TECHNOLOGIES ARE NEW AND HAVE NOT RESULTED IN ANY SUCCESSFUL COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS
Our technologies are novel and represent a new approach to the discovery of plant-derived products of commercial relevance. There can be no assurance that our technologies will enable us to discover and develop commercially viable therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical products. Further, even if our technologies enable us to discover therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical products, the time necessary to develop and achieve market success for any individual product may be long and uncertain. Therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical products that appear to be promising at early stages of development may not reach the market for a number of reasons. Such products may: (i) be found to be ineffective or cause harmful side effects during laboratory or human testing; (ii) fail to receive necessary regulatory approval; (iii) be difficult to manufacture on a large scale; (iv) be uneconomical; (v) fail to achieve market acceptance; or (vi) be precluded from commercialization by proprietary rights of third parties. If we do not discover and develop commercially successful therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical products, our business will be highly adversely affected
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO DEVELOP AND SUCCESSFULLY COMMERCIALIZE OUR PRODUCTS, WE MAY NEVER ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY
We have just started commercializing our phytomics process and generated our first revenues from the sale of our technology. We expect that we must incur significant additional research and development expenses before we will be able commercializing one or more of our candidate products, we may never generate sufficient or sustainable revenue to enable us to be profitable.
8
We intend to enter into strategic relationships with other companies to apply our technology, fund development, commercialize future products and assist in obtaining regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that we will find any willing partners, not that any of our present or future corporate partners will perform their obligations as expected or devote sufficient resources to the development, testing or marketing of our potential products developed under such arrangements. Any parallel development of alternative technologies or products, preclusion of us from entering into competitive arrangements, failure to obtain timely regulatory approvals, premature termination of an agreement, or failure by a strategic partner to devote sufficient resources to the development and commercialization of our products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our primary strategy for the development, regulatory approval, production and commercialization of certain of our products is to enter into collaborations with various corporate partners, licensors, licensees and others. There can be no assurance that we will be able to negotiate these collaborative arrangements in the future on acceptable terms, if at all, or that such collaborative arrangements will be beneficial to us. To the extent that we are not able to establish such arrangements, we would face increased capital requirements to undertake such activities at our own expense and might encounter significant delays in introducing our products into certain markets or find that the development, manufacture or sale of our products in such markets is adversely affected.
IF WE CANNOT ENTER INTO LICENSING ARRANGEMENTS, OUR ABILITY TO DEVELOP A DIVERSE PRODUCT PORTFOLIO COULD BE LIMITED
A component of our business strategy is in-licensing drug compounds developed by other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies or academic research laboratories that may be marketed and developed or improved upon using our novel technologies. Competition for promising compounds can be intense and currently we have not entered into any arrangement to license any drugs from other companies. If we are not able to identify licensing opportunities or enter into licensing arrangements on acceptable terms, we will be unable to develop a diverse portfolio of products.
The full implementation of our strategy includes the dependence on the activities of others, over which we have no control.
An important element of our business strategy involves collaborations and licensing agreements with partners, principally pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical and biotechnology companies and government institutions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to establish additional collaborative or licensing agreements with other parties, or that any such agreements or licenses will be on terms favorable to us, or once entered into, will be successful. Any failure to maintain existing collaborations or to enter into additional collaborative agreements on favorable terms would adversely affect our business.
There can be no assurance that current or future collaborative partners will not pursue alternative technologies or develop alternative products either on their own or in collaboration with others, including our competitors.
We also intend to engage third party research, development and service organizations to carry out a variety of tasks. There can be no assurance that such third party organizations will perform their tasks satisfactorily. The failure to perform such tasks satisfactorily could delay or prevent the development of our technologies and products and could adversely affect our business.
LACK OF A BROAD BASE OF CUSTOMERS
We have concluded two agreements. One with cosmetic company, France based l’Oréal and the other, a large French Biopharma, Pierre Fabre. Our failure to gain additional customers would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition and produce a negative result in our operations.
THE COMPANY’S LACK OF PRODUCTION EXPERIENCE AND CAPACITY COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS
The production of plant-derived products for human consumption at commercial scale requires significant expertise and capital investment. We have practically no experience in manufacturing pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical products and have a very limited manufacturing capacity. As a result, we will have to develop industrial scale production facilities and/or may have to rely on third party contract manufacturers to supply product. There is no assurance that we will be successful in our own efforts in finding suitable outside contractors. Also, production of our products may require raw materials for which the sources and amount of supply are limited and, therefore, an inability to obtain adequate supplies of such raw materials, or other manufacturing problems, could significantly delay the development of our products.
9
OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND OTHER KEY PERSONNEL ARE CRITICAL TO OUR BUSINESS AND OUR FUTURE SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO RETAIN THEM.
We are highly dependent on the principal members of our scientific and management teams, including Leonard Stella, our chief executive officer, Jean Archambault, our president, and Bahige Baroudy, our chief scientific officer. In order to pursue our product development, marketing and commercialization plans, we will need to hire additional personnel with experience in clinical testing, government regulation, manufacturing, marketing and business development. We may not be able to attract and retain personnel on acceptable terms given the intense competition for such personnel among biotechnology, pharmaceutical and healthcare companies, universities and non-profit research institutions. We are not aware of any present intention of any of our key personnel to leave our company or to retire. However, although we have employment agreements with our executive officers, these employees may terminate their services upon 90 days’ advance notice. There is intense competition for qualified personnel and the loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We will need to develop further expertise and add skilled employees or retain consultants in such areas as research and development, clinical testing, government approvals, manufacturing and marketing in the future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain the qualified personnel or develop the expertise needed in these areas. We currently have a small research and development and management group with limited operating experience. The loss of the services of one or more members of the research and development or management group or the inability to hire additional personnel and develop expertise as needed would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and relationships with our corporate partners.
WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IN THE FUTURE. IF ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IS NOT AVAILABLE, WE MAY BE FORCED TO DELAY OR CURTAIL THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR PRODUCT CANDIDATES
We anticipate that our existing capital resources will enable us to maintain our current operations for at least the next 24 months. Our requirements for additional capital may be substantial and will depend on many other factors, including:
|
|
|
| • | successful commercialization of our phytomics process; |
|
|
|
| • | payments received under present or future collaborative partner agreements; |
|
|
|
| • | continued progress of research and development of our cell culture library; |
|
|
|
| • | costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights; |
|
|
|
| • | development of marketing and sales capabilities; and |
|
|
|
| • | market acceptance of our products. |
We have no significant committed sources of additional capital. To the extent that our capital resources turn out to be insufficient to meet future capital requirements, we will have to raise additional funds to continue the development of our product candidates. We cannot assure you that funds will be available on favorable terms, if at all. To the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail significantly our development and commercialization activities.
WE COULD BE FORCED TO PAY SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE AWARDS IF LIABILITY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE BROUGHT AGAINST US ARE SUCCESSFUL
The use of any of our phytomics process, and the sale of any approved technology, may expose us to liability claims and financial losses resulting from the use or sale of our products. We are in the process of obtaining liability insurance coverage for our technology, which we believe will be adequate to cover our present activities. However, such insurance may not be adequate to cover all potential claims made against us. In addition, we may not be able to maintain insurance coverage at a reasonable cost or in sufficient amounts or scope to protect us against potential claims.
We face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims alleging that the use of our technology or products resulted in adverse effects. Our business exposes us to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the testing, production, marketing and sale of pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical intermediates and final products. The use of products in human testing and the subsequent sale of these products by us and/or current or our future collaborators may cause usto bear all or a portion of the product liability risks. There can be no assurance that we will be able to avoid significant product liability exposure. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain or maintain adequate product liability insurance on acceptable terms, if at all, or that
10
such insurance will provide adequate coverage against potential liabilities. The failure to obtain adequate product liability insurance could adversely affect our business.
IF WE FAIL TO ESTABLISH MARKETING, SALES AND DISTRIBUTION CAPABILITIES, OR FAIL TO ENTER INTO ARRANGEMENTS WITH THIRD PARTIES, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COMMERCIALIZE OUR TECHNOLOGY
We have entered into two minor contracts, being our only sales. We do not have adequate marketing or distribution capabilities. In order to commercialize our technology, we must either acquire or develop an internal marketing and sales force with technical expertise and with supporting distribution capabilities or make arrangements with third parties to perform these services for us. In order to market any of our technology, we must either acquire or develop a sales and distribution infrastructure. The acquisition or development of a sales and distribution infrastructure would require substantial resources, which may divert the attention of our management and key personnel, and defer our product development efforts. To the extent that we enter into marketing and sales arrangements with other companies, our revenues will depend on the efforts of others. These efforts may not be successful. If we fail to develop substantial sales, marketing and distribution channels, or enter into arrangements with third parties, we will experience delays in product sales and incur increased costs.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH
To date, we have been engaged almost exclusively in research and development activities. We are in the process of transitioning toward becoming a full-scale commercial producer of our products. These changes in our business have placed and will continue to place significant demands on our management, working capital and financial and management control systems. Failure to upgrade our operating, management and financial control systems or difficulties encountered during such upgrades could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we believe that our systems and controls are adequate to address our current needs, there can be no assurance that such systems will be adequate to address future expansion of our business. Our results of operations will be adversely affected if revenues do not increase sufficiently to compensate for the increase in operating expenses resulting from any expansion and there can be no assurance that any expansion will be profitable or that it will not adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, the success of any future expansion plans will depend in part upon our ability to continue to improve and expand our management and financial control systems, to attract, retain and motivate key personnel, and to raise additional required capital. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in these efforts.
RISKS RELATED TO THE INDUSTRY
ANY INABILITY TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COULD HARM OUR COMPETITIVE POSITION
Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of other intellectual property for our technologies and products in the U.S., Canada and other countries. If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies and erode or negate our competitive advantage. Further, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. and Canada, and we may encounter significant problems in protecting our proprietary rights in these foreign countries.
The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, including our patent positions, involve complex legal and factual questions and, therefore, validity and enforceability cannot be predicted with certainty. Patents may be challenged, deemed unenforceable, invalidated or circumvented. We will be able to protect our proprietary rights from unauthorized use by third parties only to the extent that we cover our proprietary technologies with valid and enforceable patents or we effectively maintain such proprietary technologies as trade secrets. We will apply for patents covering both our technologies and product candidates, as we deem appropriate. However, we may fail to apply for patents on important technologies or products in a timely fashion, or at all,
11
and in any event, the applications we do file may be challenged and may not result in issued patents. Any future patents we obtain may not be sufficiently broad to prevent others from utilizing our technologies and from developing competing products. Furthermore, others may independently develop similar or alternative technologies or design around our patented technologies. In addition, if challenged, our patents may be declared invalid. Even if valid, our patents may fail to provide us with any competitive advantages.
We rely upon trade secrets protection for our confidential and proprietary information. We have taken measures to protect our proprietary information; however, these measures may not provide adequate protection. We seek to protect our proprietary information by entering into confidentiality agreements with employees, collaborators and consultants. Nevertheless, employees, collaborators or consultants may still disclose our proprietary information, and we may not be able to meaningfully protect our trade secrets. In addition, others may independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets.
The patent positions of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, including our Company, are generally uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions. There can be no assurance that any of the Company’s pending patent applications will result in issued patents, that the Company will develop additional proprietary technologies that are patentable, that any patents issued to the Company or its corporate partners will provide a basis for commercially viable products or will provide the Company with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties, or that the patents of others will not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to do business. In addition, patent law relating to the scope of claims in the technology fields in which the Company operates is still evolving. The degree of future protection for the Company’s proprietary rights, therefore, is uncertain. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similar or alternative technologies, duplicate any of the Company’s technologies, or, if patents are issued to the Company, design around the patented technologies developed by the Company. In addition, the Company could incur substantial costs in litigation if it is required to defend itself in patent suits brought by third parties or if it initiates such suits.
The Company’s future prospects also depend in part on the Company neither infringing patents or proprietary rights of third parties nor breaching any licenses that may relate to the Company’s technologies and products. There can be no assurance that the Company will not infringe the patents, licenses or other proprietary rights of third parties. In addition, the Company may in the future receive notices claiming infringement from third parties as well as invitations to take licenses under third party patents. Any legal action against the Company or its collaborative partners claiming damages and seeking to enjoin commercial activities relating to the affected products and processes could, in addition to subjecting the Company to potential liability for damages, require the Company or its corporate partners to obtain a license in order to continue to manufacture or market the affected products and processes. There can be no assurance that the Company or its corporate partners would prevail in any such action or that any license (including licenses proposed by third parties) required under any such patent would be made available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. There may be a significant number of United States and foreign patents and patent applications in the Company’s area of interest, and the Company believes that there may be significant litigation in the industry regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. If the Company becomes involved in such litigation, it could consume a substantial portion of the Company’s managerial and financial resources, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and relationships with its corporate partners.
While the disclosure and use of the Company’s proprietary technology, know-how and trade secrets are generally controlled under agreements with the parties involved, there can be no assurance that all confidentiality agreements will be honored, that others will not independently develop similar or superior technology, that disputes will not arise concerning the ownership of intellectual property, or that dissemination of the Company’s proprietary technology, know-how and trade secrets will not occur.
THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS WOULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF IT WERE NOT ABLE TO MAINTAIN A STRONG INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY POSITION
The Company currently holds one issued U.S. patent (patent number 6,069,009) with foreign counterparts covering an original method for increasing the growth of plant cell cultures.
While the Company’s practice is to file, where prudent, patent applications with respect to technology, inventions and improvements that are important to its business, the Company primarily relies upon trade secrets, unpatented know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain the competitive position of its Phytomics Technologies and Plant Product Discovery Platform. For example, as a result of the disclosure requirements inherent in patent applications, the Company has decided to rely on trade secrets to protect its Phytomics Technologies and Plant Product Discovery Platform. There can be no assurance that the Company can meaningfully protect its proprietary position through these means or that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary technology.
12
The Company intends to continue filing international patent applications, where applicable, on products discovered through the screening of its chemically diverse library of compounds for use in particular therapeutic, cosmetic and nutraceutical areas and/or against specified molecular targets and cellular assays. There can be no assurance, however, that any United States or foreign patent application will result in an issued patent or that any such patent, if issued will adequately protect the Company’s products
The Company’s success will depend in large part on its ability to maintain trade secret protection and on its ability to obtain patents for its therapeutic, cosmetic and nutraceutical products, both in the United States and in foreign countries. The Company’s success also depends upon its ability to defend patents once obtained.
The biotechnology, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries place considerable importance on obtaining and maintaining patent and trade secret protection for new products, technologies and processes. Patent positions, however, can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual issues and there can be no assurance that the Company’s future patent applications will result in the issuance of patents. There can also be no assurance: (i) that the Company will develop proprietary and patentable technologies or products; (ii) that any patents issued to the Company will provide the company with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties; (iii) that any third party patents will not hinder the Company’s ability to do business or that third parties will be unable to circumvent the Company’s patents; or (iv) that third parties will not independently develop similar or identical products.
IF WE DO NOT COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION OF OUR TECHNOLOGY AND KEEP PACE WITH RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, WE WILL BE UNABLE TO CAPTURE AND SUSTAIN A MEANINGFUL MARKET POSITION
The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are highly competitive and subject to significant and rapid technological change. Many of these competitors, either alone or together with their collaborative partners, have substantially greater financial resources and larger research and development staffs than we do. In addition, many of these competitors, either alone or together with their collaborative partners, have significantly greater experience than we do in:
|
|
| Developing products; |
|
|
| obtaining approvals of products from regulatory agencies; and |
|
|
| manufacturing and marketing products. |
Developments by others may render our product candidates or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive. We face and will continue to face intense competition from other companies for collaborative arrangements with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, for establishing relationships with academic and research institutions, and for licenses of products or technology. These competitors, either alone or with their collaborative partners, may succeed in developing technologies or products that are more effective than ours.
However, the existence of technology of which MH-B is not aware, or technology that may be developed in the future, may adversely affect the technical and competitive advantages that MH-B currently believes it holds. MH-B’s competitive position will also depend on its ability to attract and retain qualified scientific and other personnel, develop effective proprietary products, successfully perform its collaboration agreements with its corporate partners, implement research and development and production plans, obtain patent protection and secure adequate capital sources.
THE COMPANY’S INDUSTRY IS EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE AND THE COMPANY MAY ULTIMATELY PROVE UNSUCCESSFUL
Many organizations are actively attempting to develop technologies that improve the effectiveness and efficiencies of the product discovery process. The Company competes with the research departments of pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical companies, biotechnology companies, natural product-based discovery companies, chemistry companies, research and academic institutions and other therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical product discovery and development companies.
For example, with regard to the Company’s Phytomics Technologies and Plant Product Discovery Platform, although the Company believes that it is a world leader in accessing chemical diversity from plant cell culture, several competitors have developed natural product libraries and have marketed them to pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical and biotechnology companies. Additionally, some large pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical companies have internal natural product-based discovery groups. Many of
13
the Company’s competitors have greater financial and human resources and more research experience. As a result, they may be able to adapt more readily than the Company to technological advances or to devote greater resources than the Company to the discovery and development of therapeutic, cosmetic and/or nutraceutical products. The Company may face increased competition in the future as new companies enter the market and advanced technologies become available.
THE MANUFACTURE AND STORAGE OF PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS IS SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AND RISK
Because of the chemical ingredients of pharmaceutical products and the nature of their manufacturing process, the pharmaceutical industry is subject to extensive environmental regulation and the risk of incurring liability for damages or the costs of remedying environmental problems. We use limited quantities of hazardous materials and chemicals as the Company carries out its activities. If we fail to comply with environmental regulations to use, discharge or dispose of hazardous materials appropriately or otherwise to comply with the conditions attached to our operating licenses, the licenses could be revoked and we could be subject to criminal sanctions and/or substantial liability or could be required to suspend or modify our operations. The risk of accidental injury or contamination from these materials cannot be completely eliminated. In the event of such an accident, the Company could be held liable for any damages that result and any such liability could exceed the resources of the Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be required to incur significant costs to comply with environmental laws and regulations in the future. Any of these events could adversely affect the Company’s business.
Environmental laws and regulations can require us to undertake or pay for investigation, clean-up and monitoring of environmental contamination identified at properties that we currently own or operate or that we formerly owned or operated. Further, they can require us to undertake or pay for such actions at offsite locations where we may have sent hazardous substances for disposal. These obligations are often imposed without regard to fault. In the event we are found to have violated environmental laws or regulations, our reputation will be harmed and we may incur substantial monetary liabilities. We currently have insurance coverage that we believe is adequate to cover our present activities. However, this insurance may not be available or adequate to cover any losses arising from contamination or injury resulting from our use of hazardous substances.
FAILURE OF THE COMPANY TO COMPLY WITH REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON ITS BUSINESS
The manufacture and sale of plant-derived products for human consumption in Canada, the U.S. and in other jurisdictions are governed by an assortment of statutes and regulations that require: (i) approval of manufacturing facilities; (ii) controlled research and human testing of products; and (iii) government review and approval of a submission containing all relevant scientific, human testing and manufacturing data establishing the safety and efficacy of the product for each use sought. The Canadian TPD, the U.S. FDA and other regulatory authorities must confirm that human testing, as well as manufacturing, are all carried out under good laboratory, testing and manufacturing practices. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals can be expensive and time-consuming and there can be no assurance that products will be successfully developed and receive regulatory approvals. As a result, the Company cannot be certain if or when any approval will be granted for any products resulting from its technologies.
THE EFFORTS OF THE GOVERNMENT AND OTHERS TO REDUCE THE COST OF HEALTH CARE MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE COMPANY’S COLLABORATORS AND ITS BUSINESS
The Company expects that a portion of its medium- and long-term revenues will be derived from products provided to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Accordingly, the Company’s success is directly dependent upon the success of the companies within those industries and their continued demand for the Company’s products. The levels of revenues and profitability of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies may be affected by the continuing efforts of governmental and third party payors to contain or reduce the costs of health care, including the costs and reimbursement rates for therapeutic products, through various means. To the extent that any such means have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition and profitability of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, the Company’s business may also be adversely affected.
RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING
FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK, OR THE PERCEPTION OF THESE SALES MAY OCCUR, COULD DEPRESS THE STOCK PRICE
14
Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception in the public markets that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. This could also impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities. Upon completion of this offering, we will have 40,000,000 shares of our common stock outstanding. In addition to the adverse effect a price decline could have on holders of our common stock, such a decline could impede our ability to raise capital or to make acquisitions through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock or other equity securities.
THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE VOLATILE
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest will lead to the development of an active and liquid trading market in our common stock. The initial public offering price for the shares will be determined by us and may not be indicative of the market price of the common stock that will prevail in the trading market. The market price of the common stock may decline below the initial public offering price. Some companies that have had volatile market prices for their securities have been subject to securities class action suits filed against them. If a suit were to be filed against us, regardless of the outcome, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition
15
OUR ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED SHARES AND OUR ABILITY TO ISSUE ADDITIONAL PREFERRED SHARES COULD MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR A THIRD PARTY TO ACQUIRE AN INTEREST IN MANAGEMENT, TO THE POSSIBLE DETRIMENT OF HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK.
We have the ability to issue and have available the ability to issue preferred shares which, if issued, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, to the detriment of holders of shares of our common stock. Our Board of Directors may authorize and issue our authorized but yet unissued preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. In addition, the potential future issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control, may discourage bids for our common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
OUR CHARTER PROVIDES FOR LIMITED LIABILITY FOR OUR DIRECTORS
Our articles of incorporation (by-laws) limit and indemnify against the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty of care as a director, subject to certain exceptions, to the fullest extent allowed by Canadian law. Accordingly, except in limited circumstances, our directors may not be liable to us or our stockholders, for breach of this duty.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR PUBLIC SALE IN THE FUTURE COULD DECREASE THE PRICE OF OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND REDUCE OUR FUTURE ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL
Sales of substantial amounts of shares of our common stock in the public market could decrease the prevailing market price of our common stock. If this is the case, investors in our shares of common stock may be forced to sell such shares at prices below the price they paid for their shares. In addition, a decreased market price may result in potential future investors losing confidence in us and failing to provide needed funding. This will have a negative effect on our ability to raise equity capital in the future.
16
MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDERS MATTERS
Currently there is no public market for our shares. After our Registration Statement is declared effective, we will apply for a public listing for the shares of our common stock. We have approximately 2000 shareholders owning 40,000,000 common shares, all of which are subject to the resale restrictions of Rule 144.

DIVIDENDS
We have never paid a cash dividend on our common stock. It is our present policy to retain earnings, if any, to finance the development and growth of our business. Accordingly, we do not anticipate that cash dividends will be paid until our earnings and financial condition justify such dividends. There can be no assurance that we can achieve such earnings.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Millenia Hope Biopharma (MH-B) is the world’s leading bioresearch firms in Phytomics Technologies, commercializing plant cell-based bioprocesses for the discovery, development and production of natural and novel plant-derived products for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries. MH-B (formerly Avance Pharma) has spent over $30 million in developing its unique Phytomics Technologies, including the world’s largest library of highly purified phytochemical fractions to be utilized by the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industry. MH-B is the midst of the commercializing several projects with leading multi-national corporations.
MH-B is a global leader in Phyromics Technology and is ideally suited through it expertise, infrastructure and world-class library of purified phytochemical fractions to deliver natural products discovery and development. In May 2006, MH-B forged a relationship with Institut Armand-Frappier, INRS, a world leader in biotechnology R & D and a member of the international network of Pasteur Instiutes, a leading non-profit research organization.
The health industry at large, inclusive of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical as well as food additives, is facing critical issues to ensure future development. In order to meet investor expectations and to achieve annual growth rates of 10%, a major pharmaceutical company must launch on average four New Chemical Entities (NCEs) per year, with average annual sales of US $350M. From 1996 to 2001, however, the pharmaceutical industry only launched, on average, less than one NCE per year per company and only one quarter of those new products had achieved sales of US $350M by 2001. During this period, pharmaceutical R&D spending in the US increased by approximately 40%, whereas new drug approvals declined by nearly 50%. In 2001, for example, the top sixteen pharmaceutical companies only launched a total of ten new products.
One of the reasons for this dearth of approved NCEs is that chemical diversity, or the lack thereof, has become a major obstacle for the drug discovery and development process. Natural products have traditionally been a consistent source of NCEs. In the period between 1981 and 2002, 61% of the 877 new small molecule drugs approved were either natural products or were derived from natural products, more than 50% of which came from plants.
MH-B’s highly purified natural and novel phytochemical fractions, obtained from cleaner cell culture extracts have a significant competitive advantage, over our competitors, in solving the technological challenges of plant extracts in the drug discovery environment.
MH-B’s primary business activities will focus on business development targeting the markets of cosmetic, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industrial products. More specifically, companies in these markets are either searching for innovative new products of plant origin using modern product discovery technologies and/or struggling to produce efficiently complex plant products. However, they are experiencing serious problems in accessing and producing plant compounds, and currently facing important market gaps and significant unmet needs that MH-B can satisfy efficiently, using its unique technologies.
MH-B’s business development activities will be driven by
|
|
|
|
| 1. | Needs and requests of prospective customers for plant-based discovery projects and/or production projects | |
|
|
| |
| 2. | Innovative product concepts identified through market intelligence | |
|
| ||
Typically these projects would be structured as follows. | |||
|
| ||
| 1. | The partner pays | |
|
|
|
|
| • | Licensing fees to access MH-B’s technologies and phytochemical library, | |
|
|
|
|
| • | R&D costs, | |
|
|
|
|
| • | Pre-negotiated milestones and royalty (at commercialization) payments. | |
|
|
|
|
| 2. | The partner obtains | |
|
|
|
|
| • | Co-ownership of product IP, and | |
|
|
|
|
| • | Full commercialization rights with performance clauses. |
18
|
|
|
|
| 3. | MH-B’s retains | |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Co-ownership of product IP, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Cull ownership of production technologies and IP and exclusive industrial scale production rights for complex plant products (2nd commercial activity) |
In Summary, MH-B’s objectives are to generate US $16.5Million/yr and US $2.6Million/yr of profitable product discovery and R&D production projects, respectively, in the targeted markets with the next three years to 2008, excluding milestone and royalty payments. In addition, MH-B expects that the latter projects will translate into US $59Million/yr profitable production contracts within the next 3-5 years depending on the availability of suitable production facilities.

6 months ending May 31, 2006 and 2005
The six months to May 2006 we received initial revenue payment from L’Oréal and Pierre Fabre for contracts we signed with them, totaling $ 231 785. We had no activity in 2005.
We paid our scientists and administrators $165 902 of salary and made rent payments of $139 928 and had Research and Development Costs of $55 080 to May 31, 2006 (we commenced activity on February 14, 2006) and had no activity, at all, in 2005.
As a result we had a net loss of $319 495for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and we were inactive during the same period of 2005.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At May 31, 2006, we had working capital of $13,560. Additional capital and/or borrowings will be necessary. Management anticipates generating revenue through developing and producing new plant-derived products during the next fiscal year. Our officers and directors have indicated their commitment to fund the operations of the organization during the next fiscal year, if necessary, until the organization can generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet current operating expenses and overhead. We anticipate our net cash needs at $1,500,000 for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2006.
Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
SFAS 156 – ‘Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140’
This Statement, issued in March 2006, amends FASB Statement No. 140,Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement:
|
|
|
| 1. | Requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations. |
20
|
|
|
| 2. | Requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. |
|
|
|
| 3. | Permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. |
|
|
|
| 4. | At its initial adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under Statement 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity’s exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value. |
|
|
|
| 5. | Requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. |
Adoption of this Statement is required as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
SFAS 155 – ‘Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140’
This Statement, issued in February 2006, amends FASB Statements No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 140,Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This Statement resolves issues addressed in Statement 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.”
This Statement:
|
|
|
| a. | Permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation |
|
|
|
| b. | Clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of Statement 133 |
|
|
|

BUSINESS – OUR COMPANY
A SUMMARY OF WHAT WE DO
OVERVIEW
We were incorporated in Canada on January 13, 2000 under the Canada Business Corporations Act, or CBCA. Our authorized capital in virtue of said charter is unlimited and upon a unanimous decision of the Board of Directors, we limited the authorized capital to 280,000,000 common shares and 50,000,000 preferred shares. Millenia Hope Biopharma (MH-B) is a Montreal-based biotechnology company focused on exploiting major advancements in accessing one of the most productive sources of biologically active compounds, plants, to discover, develop and produce new products for human health and well being. We commenced our commercial activity on February 14, 2006.
FOCUS
MH-B’s is a biotechnology company focusing on the discovery, development and production of new plant-derived pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical products Company, both internally and in partnership, using Phytomics Technologies and Plant-based Product Discovery Platform.
22
MH-B intends to expand its portfolio of important proprietary and partnered health products as well as proprietary Phytomics-based bioprocesses for the industrial scale production of complex plant-based products of commercial relevance.
THE BUINESS
Millenia Hope Biopharma (MH-B) is a Montreal-based biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing and producing new plant-derived products for human health and well being. MH-B is building a portfolio of important health products for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries based on major advancements in accessing one of the most productive sources of natural products: plants. MH-B’s approach to product discovery combines the immense potential of the plant kingdom’s untapped chemodiversity with validated biological targets.
Over the past 15-20 years, the pharmaceutical industry has developed high throughput systems using cellular assays and molecular targets to screen large number of synthetic chemicals in order to discover new drugs. This major undertaking yielded limited success in view, in good part, of the limited chemodiversity offered by synthetic chemistry. More recently, the cosmetic and nutraceutical industries have been implementing similar approaches to speed-up their discovery activities focusing, for the most part, on natural product screening. However, it has been conclusively shown that traditional natural extracts are not compatible with modern high throughput discovery processes.
On the other hand, small molecules from plants (phytochemicals) have attributes that are essential in today’s discovery processes: structural complexity, broad chemical and stereochemical diversity, as well as effective biological activity. However,significant technological challenges in obtaining, isolating, synthesizing and producing required quantities of plant compounds have kept this tremendous source of chemodiversity out of the mainstream of product discovery.
MH-B has developed proprietary and patented enabling Phytomics Technologies that allow unprecedented access and supply of natural and novel, chemodiverse phytochemicals compatible with biological target-based discovery processes. With the scarcity of structurally diverse small molecules being explicitly linked to the health industry’s dearth of new product approvals, MH-B’s ability to continuously generate a large number of novel, structurally diverse and biologically active small molecules addresses one of the major causes of the industry’s current malaise. Phytomics do not risk becoming redundant and cannot be easily copied.
The Company has built a powerful Phytomics infrastructure that has produced an exclusive, reproducible and expandable library of phytochemicals for product discovery and development. To exploit its distinctive chemical capabilities, the Company has also developed a uniquePlant Product Discovery Platform combining biological target-based discovery processes and Phytomics to efficiently discover and develop novel plant-derived products for the health industry. The Phytomics Technologies are being leveraged to develop a unique, high-value revenue generating pipeline of new plant-based health products. Since 2004, proof-of-concept of these technology platforms has been established in 1) infectious disease, with two high value patent applications in the area of HIV, and 2) increasing interest from the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries.
The goal of MH-B is to leverage its Phytomics and Plant Product Discovery Platforms in order to develop, in partnership, new plant-derived products for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries.
PHYTOMICS, THE TECHNOLOGY
Plants have contributed enormous chemodiversity to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries, without having been explored in a systematic manner. In fact, more than 120 plant-derived drugs have been used in western medicine while less than 8% of ~ 300,000 plant species have been studied, often incompletely, for their therapeutic value. Our Phytomics Technologies has the potential to systematically access the plant kingdom’s chemodiversity and to uncover a vast wealth of much needed natural and novel small molecules for health product discovery.
MH-B’s state-of-the-art Phytomics Technologies, the subject of one issued US patent, with foreign counterparts, along with extensive trade secrets, are actually an evolving integrated suite of proprietary technologies, novel approaches, expertise and unique know-how in plant biotechnology and phytochemistry. These breakthroughs have allowed the Company to overcome the access, reproducibility, purification and supply issues that have always been major technological barriers to phytochemical drug discovery. MH-B’s research team has transformed into a science the relatively underdeveloped field ofin vitro plant cell culture and has created a bioprocess by which an unprecedented number of compounds can be biosynthesized reproducibly and where access and supply are no longer limiting factors.
In building its Phytomics Technologies, we have developed:
23
|
|
|
| 1. | The expertise to generate productive cell lines from most plant species; |
|
|
|
| 2. | A collection of productive cell lines from over 2,200 plant species in culture, obtained from 240 of 634 known plant families; |
|
|
|
| 3. | Continuously improving, novel biotechnologies, expertise and know-how to control and accelerate the metabolism of cultured plant cells for high rate biosynthesis of natural and novel small molecules; |
|
|
|
| 4. | Approaches in mutagenesis and genetic engineering of cultured plant cells for reproducible biosynthesis at high yields of specific complex phytochemicals of industrial interest; |
|
|
|
| 5. | A unique, computer-monitored and -controlled bioreactor system, successfully scaled-up to pilot size (50 L completed; 300 L in development), for the efficient culturing of plant cells; |
|
|
|
| 6. | A proprietary quasi-expert system for controlling plant cell culture processes; |
|
|
|
| 7. | Integrated extraction, separation and purification procedures for processing complex culture extracts into highly purified fractions and compounds; and |
|
|
|
| 8. | Fully equipped laboratory facilities. |
A key feature of our proprietary Phytomics Technologies is its ability to develop efficient and scalable plant cell-based bioprocesses to produce at industrial level complex phytochemicals of commercial relevance. If a complex plant product cannot be synthesized economically at industrial scale, this gives MH-B a major competitive advantage
PLANT DISCOVERY PLATFORM
Traditional plant extracts have been found incompatible with high speed and highly specific discovery technologies with respect to the inherent complexity of natural product mixtures (typically, an extract contains 1000s of compounds at different yields). Furthermore, the short cycle times of discovery processes, from screening to supply and identification of the purified compounds responsible for the activity, amplify this incompatibility.
MH-B has developed a unique, highly efficient Plant Product Discovery Platform that encompasses
|
|
|
|
|
| 1. | New bioprocesses based on the Phytomics Technologies that allow | ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| a. | The continuous generation of a wide range natural and novel phytochemicals for testing, and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| b. | The rapid and reproducible supply and identification of active compounds, |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. | High throughput extraction, separation and purification (HTESP) technologies making plant compounds compatible with today’s discovery technologies, and | ||
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. | The expertise and modern high throughput screening (HTS) technologies for effective testing of plant compounds. |
Using the HTESP technologies, plant cell culture extracts are extensively purified prior to biological testing. The resulting fractions contain, on average, 7 compounds, which means that final purification of an active compound is much simpler and faster than the long and costly process of activity-guided fractionation. Only a limited number of purification steps are necessary, after identification of an active fraction in a primary assay, for confirmation and identification of the active compound.
This Phytomics bioprocess, integrating efficient HTESP technologies, allowed MH-B to generate a library of over 160,000 highly purified phytochemical fractions, representing approximately 1,000,000 compounds obtained from cell cultures of over 560 different plant species within 32 months. Although it may include some redundancy, this is the world’s largest library of its kind. This library is exclusive to MH-B and can be easily scaled-up.
A major competitive advantage of MH-B in plant product discovery is that Phytomics bioprocesses efficiently solve all the technological challenges associated with exploiting plant-derived compounds using today’s product discovery technologies (Table below). It is well known that natural products offer a much widerchemodiversity than synthetic chemistry. The Phytomics bioprocesses allow access to natural and also novel phytochemodiversity that may not be expressed in nature.

Plants produce a large variety of complex plant chemicals (secondary metabolites) for various purposes, including storage of key nutrients (carbon, oxygen and nitrogen) at low osmotic pressure, chemical defence against predators and pathogens and to attract insects for pollen dispersion. Some of these compounds are endogenously biosynthesized while others only in response to external stimuli.
MH-B has developed new technologies that allow efficient and reproducible expression of a wide range of endogenous and inducible metabolites both to increase the yield of specific compounds and to generate natural and novel chemodiversity.
MH-B’S TEAM HAS DEVELOPED A SERIES OF INDUCTION PROTOCOLS
The Phytomics bioprocesses are rapid, thus meeting more efficiently than all competitive approaches in the area of plant compound testing, the challenge of today’s product discovery cycle times. It takes MH-B’s research team only 1 to 6 weeks, depending on culture yield, to identify an active compound. MH-B’s purified phytochemical fractions are fully compatible with biological testing, including molecular targets and cell-based assays and with HTS technologies.
A critical issue of natural product discovery is reproducibility of activity from primary screening and identification of active compounds, where traditional natural product extracts have shown a success rate of under 60%. Likely, the high variability of natural plant extracts, which composition depends on a variety of environmental factors as well as the harvesting time, represents an important contributor to this low reproducibility. This significant technological challenge in product discovery has yet to be resolved.
25
MH-B’s research team, through extensive testing of its phytochemical fraction library using a variety of cellular assays and molecular targets, has been able to re-confirm primary biological activity and supply, purify and identify active compounds in more than 90% of cases. Furthermore, the Phytomics bioprocesses allow reproducible production of culture extracts and specific compounds continuously, thus ensuring efficient access and supply of active compounds.
MH-B IS THE ONLY COMPANY WORLDWIDE THAT CAN GUARANTEE SECURED AND REPRODUCIBLE SUPPLY OF BIO-ACTIVE NATURAL AND NOVEL PHYTOCHEMICALS IDENTIFIED THROUGH PRODUCT DISCOVERY ACTIVITIES
MH-B’s Phytomics bioprocesses thus permit the efficient screening of plant-based compounds in a modern product discovery environment. This unique platform can be efficiently exploited for the discovery of new plant-based pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical products.
The Company has built in-house product discovery expertise and HTS technologies initially focused on infectious disease and GPCRs under the leadership of Dr. Bahige Baroudy recognized as one of Scientific American’s 50 Research Leaders of the Year for 2003 (Medical Treatment Category). Dr. Baroudy, formerly Group Director, Antiviral and Antimicrobial Therapy at the Schering-Plough Research Institute (Kenilworth, New Jersey), brought to the Company 25 years of industry and academic experience in basic research, infectious disease drug discovery and virology. While at the Schering-Plough Research Institute, he spearheaded the successful development of CCR5 antagonists that are currently in human clinical trials as HIV entry inhibitors. Dr. Baroudy participated in the development of new anti-HCV drugs. With his colleagues, he identified several HCV targets for inhibiting HCV replication. Among these targets were the NS3 Protease and Helicase, the NS5B polymerase and the IRES element. Dr. Baroudy and his team were successful in developing an HCV protease inhibitor (orally bioavailable) that is currently in Phase I clinical trial.
MH-B’s HTS technology platform includes expertise in screening enzymatic and receptors (GPCR) targets as well as cellular assays. This platform also includes additional assays to characterize biologically (e.g., toxicity) and chemically (e.g., solubility, stability) bioactive compounds.
MH-B’S PROOF OF CONCEPT
MH-B extensively screened 10,000 fractions from its library using nine anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-cancer targets as well as the Endothelin receptor A, a well-known GPCR, with several collaborators. Results from this work revealed that MH-B’s phytochemicals could inhibit all targets tested. It was shown that this library contains drug-like chemicals that can be modified through SAR into Lead compounds. Further screening of this library showed an average success rate in finding active fractions for a given target of approximately 0.3% indicating its selectivity.
PRODUCT HISTORY
MARKET DEMAND
The health industry at large, inclusive of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical as well as food additives, is facing critical issues to ensure future development. The challenges are numerous, of scientific and economic nature, but also increasingly at the socio-political level
NATURAL/PLANT PRODUCTS IN THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY
The pharmaceutical industry is currently facing major marketing and technology challenges. Intense product competition, patent expiration of many of the top-selling drugs (between 2000 and 2004, products representing sales of US $43B have come off patent, reduced periods of exclusivity, as well as price constraints are putting pressure on pharmaceutical companies to lower costs, increase R&D productivity and accelerate product development. Consolidation of the industry has increased the size and revenues of the top firms, but it has also made double-digit revenue growth an even more daunting task. In order to meet investor expectations and to achieve annual growth rates of 10%, a major pharmaceutical company must launch on average fourNewChemicalEntities (NCEs) per year, with average annual sales of US $350M. From 1996 to 2001, however, the pharmaceutical industry has launched on average less than one NCE per year per company. Of all the NCEs launched in 1996, only one quarter had achieved sales of US$ 350M by 2001. During this period, pharmaceutical R&D spending in the US has increased by approximately 40%, whereas new drug approvals declined by nearly 50%. In 2001, for example, the top sixteen pharmaceutical companies only launched a total of ten new products.
26
One of the reasons for this dearth of approved NCEs is that chemical diversity, or the lack thereof, has become a rate-limiting step for the drug discovery and development process. This limitation can be addressed by designing or gaining access to compound libraries that contain novel chemodiversity and more drug-like structures, which will in turn improve the quality of the compounds that enter development.
Natural products have traditionally been a consistent source of NCEs by providing unmatched structural variety, complexity and biological potency. As shown in Figure 4, in the period between 1981 and 2002, 61% of the 877 new small molecule drugs approved were either natural products or were derived from natural products, more than 50% of which came from plants.
Most natural products come from bacteria, fungi, animals or plants. Plants have been utilized in traditional medicine for thousands of years and over 120 plant-derived drugs have been used in Western medicine and have produced pharmaceutical products in all major therapeutic areas (In table below). While close to three-quarters of these drugs were discovered as a result of the study of plants used in traditional medicine, there has never been a systematic approach to drug discovery from plants.

In the last 15-20 years, the pharmaceutical industry has embraced newer drug discovery technologies and focused on shortening discovery timelines in order to meet the intended goal of generating several more NCEs per year. As such, many pharmaceutical companies have discontinued their time- and resource-consuming traditional natural product programs. Instead, they have concentrated on the more high-throughput-friendly area of synthetic chemistry and combinatorial synthesis, and, in a sense, have given up on the unrivalled structural diversity available from nature.
The move away from conventional natural products can be understood if viewed from the traditional pharmaceutical perspective of screening natural products as extracts. This approach,especially for plant products, has several serious drawbacks.
|
|
|
| 1. | The large number of compounds and impurities in extracts can give rise to numerous false positives and negatives and can cause interference in assay results. In fact, natural extracts are not compatible with many sensitive and specific molecular and cell-based HTS assays. |
|
|
|
| 2. | The requirements for several iterative rounds of activity-guided fractionation on natural product extracts in order to identify the active constituent makes the whole process incompatible with the rapid screening cycle times that are so important in today’s high-throughput discovery model. |
|
|
|
| 3. | Reproducibility of activity in screening natural product extracts is low (under 60%). |
|
|
|
| 4. | Consistent and reproducible access to the active compound, once isolated, can be problematic. |
This last drawback can be a major problem when the active compound is too complex to be easily synthesized, as often the case with natural products. With the current emphasis on developing highly efficient discovery processes and on significantly reducing discovery timelines, it is understandable, if somewhat shortsighted, to see why many pharmaceutical companies are discontinuing their in-house natural product programs. Some pharmaceutical companies, however, still maintain efforts in this area, mostly using compounds of microbial origin.
Yet despite this seeming trend away from natural products, there were, in 2001, 143 compounds of natural origin in clinical trials or that had been recently launched. Of these, natural products from plants were by far the dominant source of bioactive compounds (In table below).

MH-B, being one of the only companies that can provide the widest access to natural and novel phytochemodiversity as well as guaranteed, secured and reproducible supply at all scale of bio-active phytochemicals. This is being recognized by the fact that several large pharmaceutical companies have solicited MH-B.
The Case of the Cosmetic Industry
The cosmetic industry is currently facing significant challenges, the most important of which include the following.
1- Increasing demand for natural(plant)-based safer cosmetic products
A number of cosmetic products contain synthetic ingredients that can be harmful to health. For example, alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) found in moisturizers, toners, cleansers, masks, and age-spot removers were shown to increase the skin’s sensitivity to the sun by as much as 50 percent, thereby exposing consumers to accelerated skin aging and the possibility of skin cancer. Propylene glycol used in suntan lotions, lipsticks and other cosmetics and toiletries, was linked to liver abnormalities and kidney damage and is known to be as a skin and eye irritant. Talc found in makeup and body powders was linked to ovarian cancer and was found to induce cancer in rodents. Methyl methacrylate found in nail products, primarily in application of acrylic nails, was linked to fungal
28
infections, nail deformities, and other problems. Prolonged exposure can lead to eye, skin and lung irritation, abnormal liver or kidney function, nervous system damage or reproductive problems.
With increasing awareness of harmful synthetic chemicals in cosmetics, consumers are demanding products containing safer natural ingredients. In fact, 35% of cosmetic products are plant-based, and this market segment is growing at a rate of 10% per year. For example, most products from Yves Rocher (annual sales: €2B), Pierre Fabre (cosmetics approximately €0.8B) and Clarins (€0.2B), are of plant origin. On the other hand, as one of the pioneers of chemical-based cosmetics, L’Oreal’s market position (€15B) could be considerably affected by this trend.
2- Increasing product regulation
Regulatory agencies are pressing all suppliers to better characterize biologically and chemically the active ingredients, whether of synthetic or natural origin, contained in consumer products and to ensure high levels of reproducibility. These issues remain highly problematic for plant-based products that can only be resolved with great difficulties using traditional production technologies.
3- Increasing marketing demand for new products
The average life cycle of a cosmetic product is 3-5 years, which means that the demand for new products is enormous, with development times, from discovery to commercialization, reduced to less than 12-18 months. For example, L’Oréal markets 5,000 products and, consequently, its R&D team needs to discover and develop 1,000 to 3,000 new products per year.
4- Speeding up the rate of product discovery and development
In an effort to better meet market demand and speed up the rate of product discovery, large cosmetic companies (L’Oréal, Estée Lauder, Shiseido etc.) have adopted, in recent years, modern and faster approaches to speed-up their R&D activities similar to those used in the pharmaceutical industry, for the discovery of new cosmetic ingredients. These involve molecular targets and cellular assays and HTS systems to screen natural product extracts and for extensive toxicity testing prior to human trials. Apparently, this undertaking has not meet with expected success (L’Oréal, personal communications) for the same reasons discussed in section 3.1.1 that led the pharmaceutical industry to shy away from natural product drug discovery using traditional extracts during the last 15-20 years. Therefore, there is an urgent need for companies that have adopted modern discovery technologies to access expertise and plant compound libraries that are compatible with HTS systems such as MH-B’s Phytomics bioprocesses, phytochemical library and Plant Product Discovery Platform (L’Oréal, personal communication).
5- High demand for innovation
An aging population with high levels of disposable income is an important business opportunity for the cosmetic industry. Its is always eagerly seeking novel ingredients both for current product lines and for important unmet market needs such as new anti-aging, natural coloring, skin whitening and natural conservative agents. These innovative ingredients can be crude extracts, partly purified natural products or pure compounds obtained from natural sources.
These trends underline the dynamics of discovery and commercialization in the cosmetic industry. Although the market for individual products may be limited, their large number, high turnover and the insatiable appetite for novelty as well as the demand by regulatory authorities to develop and market safer and better-characterized products represent a tremendous business opportunity. The continuous, reproducible, secured and scalable supply of natural and novel phytochemodiversity compatible with today’s product discovery technologies is a strategic issue for the cosmetic industry. In this context, MH-B is uniquely positioned and has significant competitive advantages to meet this significant and strategic demand of the cosmetic industry.
The Case of the Nutraceutical Industry
The Dietary Supplement Health & Education Act adopted in 1994 in the US has created a regulatory environment that remains difficult to enforce, especially with regards to claims of specific health benefits and prevention. Nutraceuticals and functional foods of natural origin are in great demand, especially from plants. However, discovery, development and production of new products involve mostly conventional approaches in the context of the conservative food market. For example, the flavour industry screens only limited number of compounds annually and focuses mainly on combinations and modifications of known ingredients.
Few companies, however, are developing more systematic and efficient approaches in this area. For example, Senomyx (San Diego, CA) has identified and patented (72 issued patents and 212 pending patent applications) many of the chemokine (GPCR) receptors and ion channels present on the human tongue that detect yumami (savory), sweet, bitter, salt, fat and sour tastes as well as cold and olfactory sensing. This company is a world leader in the exploitation of molecular targets, cellular assays and HTS systems, similar to those used in the pharmaceutical industry, for the discovery and development of novel nutraceuticals. Furthermore, Senomyx has developed a cost effective and efficient process for acceptance of its products by regulatory agencies that yields full approval within 12-24 months from discovery. Senomyx is currently collaborating with Cadbury-Schweppes, Campbell’s Soup Co., Coca-Cola, Kraft and Nestlé.
29
To date, Senomyx has screened 200,000 compounds, mostly synthetic chemicals, using its HTS systems. Following market trends and requests by its collaborators, Senomyx has undertaken limited natural product screening with little success mostly because of reproducibility and supply issues similar to those experienced by the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries (sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.4).
MARKET SUPPLY FROM THE PHYTOCHEMICAL LIBRARIES
Four types of phytochemical library are commercialized for the discovery and development of new products:
|
|
|
| 1. | Traditional plant extracts containing 1000’s of phytochemicals (and undesirable impurities) of different polarities, from water soluble to highly lipophilic compounds, present at different concentrations; |
|
|
|
| 2. | Purified natural phytochemical fractions, obtained from natural extracts, of different polarities, each containing usually 2 to 50 compounds at different concentrations; |
|
|
|
| 3. | Purified natural phytochemicals (and semi-synthetic derivatives) obtained from separation and purification of higher yield compounds of natural extracts; and |
|
|
|
| 4. | MH-B’s highly purified natural and novel phytochemical fractions, obtained from cleaner cell culture extracts, of different but more focused polarities, each containing usually 2 to 30 compounds at different concentrations. |
Obviously, all plant compound libraries obtained from natural sources suffer from serious drawbacks, including lack of reproducibility and problematic access of active compounds, especially those of lowest yields. The Phytomics bioprocesses offer MH-B a significant competitive advantage in this area by successfully solving all these technological challenges.
Historically, libraries of crude plant extracts have had limited success, for obvious reasons, in drug discovery environments. Consequently, the value of traditional plant extract libraries has been relatively low. Since purified plant products are not readily available in large numbers, it is difficult to gauge the value that such a library would command, especially when coupled to the breakthrough technologies developed by MH-B. Recently, however, Amgen entered into a three-year, non-exclusive collaboration with Infinity Pharmaceuticals for access to the latter’s “natural product-like” synthetic libraries. The groundbreaking synthetic chemistry-based technologies developed by Infinity Pharmaceuticals mirrors MH-B’s pioneering technological contributions in developing actual plant product biosynthetic libraries for drug discovery. Although most of the deal’s terms were not disclosed, Amgen did make a $25 million equity investment in Infinity.
PATENTS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Company holds one granted US patent ( 6,069,009) with foreign counterpart (Europe, Japan, Australia, Canada and Mexico) on Phytomics Technologies. The process has since been fully integrated into the Phytomics Technologies, to accelerate the growth phase of plant cell cultures and significantly improve the yield of secondary metabolites as well as the economics and reproducibility of the overall production process.
In order to better serve its interest, the Company’s IP strategy will primarily involve aggressively pursuing the filing of patent applications resulting from its product discovery activities including
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Proper patent coverage for new plant-based products, that represent the key valuation basis of the Phytomics Technologies and of the Company, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Proper process patent coverage for Phytomics bioprocesses used for the production of specific patented plant-based products. |
COMPETITION IN PLANT-BASED PRODUCT DISCOVERY
MH-B’s competitors in plant product discovery include the following.
30
1- Chemistry companies
Companies producing specialty chemicals and those specializing in combinatorial chemistry generally provide large synthetic chemical libraries for discovery programs, that are not as complex as most plant secondary metabolites. Consequently, chemistry companies are not direct competitors of MH-B. On the other hand, MH-B may sub-contract to chemistry companies industrial scale synthesis of promising simple compounds and/or semi-synthesis of promising complex phytochemicals identified through its discovery activities. Consequently, chemistry companies may become valuable partners of MH-B in optimization chemistry and/or bulk synthesis of promising compounds.
2- Companies supplying phytochemical libraries
Currently, few organizations are commercializing phytochemical libraries (In table below). These libraries are composed of crude plant extracts, purified fractions, or pure phytochemicals, with the former being incompatible with modern HTS technologies, are obtained from natural biomass. Therefore, these suppliers cannot guarantee reproducibility, fast supply and large-scale production of active complex compounds. These production issues remain key unresolved difficulties in exploiting plant compound in product discovery projects.

COMPETITION IN PLANT COMPOUND PRODUCTION
The competitive landscape in the area of reproducible industrial scale production of specialized complex plant products include the following players.
1- Contract manufacturing organizations (CMO)
Except for DFB Pharmaceuticals/Phytonbiotech (discussed below), all CMO are specializing in either microbial fermentation or mammalian/insect cell cultures, the latter for recombinant protein production. None of them have expertise in plant cell culture bioengineering
31
2- Plant pharming organizations
The number of players in plant pharming is impressive and competition is fierce. Asian, African and South American suppliers offer low cost raw material to American and European extraction companies, which then supply the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries with purified plant products. This traditional supply route (i.e., agriculture, harvesting & extraction) has numerous major limitations that can be overcome by industrial scale plant cell culture technologies, which include
|
|
|
| 1. | Secure and reproducible supply of natural biomass in sufficient quantity on a long term basis; |
|
|
|
| 2. | Increasing cost of the raw material; |
|
|
|
| 3. | Proper handling at harvesting of the natural biomass for retained yield, reproducibility and efficient processing; |
|
|
|
| 4. | Low product yield at processing; |
|
|
|
| 5. | Efficiency and cost of downstream processing operations to obtain the targeted compound at the desired purity level and in sufficient quantity to meet market demand in a timely fashion. |
This situation is further complicated if the biomass is harvested in the wild and/or when the desired compounds are extracted from plant species that are threatened, grow slowly, are only available in politically unstable areas, are not compatible with greenhouse or large scale culturing, or if harvesting results in the destruction of the plant species.
For cosmetic and nutraceutical products, purification requirements range from partly purified fractions to purified compounds, whilst for pharmaceuticals and specialty chemicals, pure compounds are required. Regulatory agencies, however, are pressuring the nutraceutical and cosmetic industries to increase the level of purification and characterization of commercial plant-based products.
3- Companies involved in industrial scale plant cell culture bioprocessing
Four companies are known to use (or to have used) industrial scale plant cell culture bioprocesses: PhytonBiotech, Inc., Mitsui Chemical, Inc., Samyang Corporation and Protalix Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
PhytonBiotech is the most advanced company in industrial plant cell culture bioprocesses. This company was founded in 1990 to produce Paclitaxel for Brystol-Myers-Squibb, its strategic partner. It succeeded in this undertaking in the late 90’s and its German subsidiary, Phyton GmbH, currently operates the world’s largest commercialcGMP manufacturing facility for the production of extracts containing Paclitaxel and other valuabletaxanes. In 2003, Phyton was acquired by DFB Pharmaceuticals, a CMO, but most of its expert personnel have left the organization.
In the mid 80’s, the Japanese giant Mitsui invested in the development of a first industrial scale plant cell-based bioprocess for the production of shikonin, an anti-inflammatory and coloring agent. This process was successfully scaled up in a 750 L bioreactor and shikonin was produced at high yields. This project, however, was discontinued for marketing reasons. In the late 80’s, Mitsui developed a second plant cell-based bioprocess for the production of ginseng extracts. The production plant was inaugurated in the early 90’s and 1995 sales of the ginseng extract reached US$ 3M. Ginseng extracts were subsequently removed from the market due to severe toxic side effects. Mitsui appears not to have pursued this business.
In the mid 90’s, the Korean company Samyang bought a taxane production technology based on cultured plant cells developed by the American company EsCagenetics. Samyang completed the development of this technology and scaled it up to industrial level for the production of Genexol™, a Paclitaxel-based product currently on the market. This company seems not to have expanded its efforts in this area.
Finally, the Israel start-up company Protalix Biopharmaceutics Ltd (formerly Metabogal, founded in 1994) is now positioning itself as a CMO for the production of recombinant proteins using plant cells cultured in a rudimentary disposable bioreactor system made of 10 L chambers with minimal monitoring and process control.
It appears from our review of the patents published by these companies as well as from personal communications with some of their key executives, that all of them use traditional approaches to plant cell cultures and bioengineering for the production of secondary metabolites. In this context, MH-B is in a good market position and significant competitive advantages in exploiting its highly efficient Phytomics bioprocesses for these business opportunities.
32
BUSINESS MODEL AND STRATEGY
MH-B’s primary business activities will focus on business development (BD). Consequently, the Company will put in place the tools and means to reach out to targeted market stakeholders. Our single most important goal is to identify profitable plant-based product opportunities to develop, as well as to connect with the best companies to partner with, for development.
To carry out its extensive BD activities, MH-B will hire an experienced BD/industrial marketing Vice-President and will develop a network of international BD consultant specialists in the three industries targeted and strategically located, mostly in US and Europe, to complement its business opportunity scouting activities. The latter will actively participate in the identification of clients/partners likely to be interested by the Company’s technologies, expertise, products and services. These consultants work on a back-loaded fee to be paid upon completion of successful transactions.
To support BD activities and identify market opportunities, the Company will create an efficient Data Mining Unit (DMU), under the direction of the VP-BD, that will identify business opportunities and provide the information to drive the Company rationale in elaborating the best-suited and most rewarding strategy for the development of our business activities. Practically, it will be based on a collection of software and procedures to monitor and mine public databases, so as to connect the Company’s technological strengths with stakeholders’ needs.
Market intelligence and public communications will generate a list of prospective partners and clients for the Company. We will adopt a pro-active approach with the market to meet as soon as possible with prospective clients/partners. Recent experience has shown this method to be very productive. Our objective is to establish profitable and value generating commercial partnerships with selected high profile companies in targeted industries.
MH-B istargeting the markets of cosmetic, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industrial products. More specifically, companies in these markets are either searching for innovative new products of plant origin using modern product discovery technologies and/or struggling to produce efficiently complex plant products. However, they are experiencing serious problems in accessing and producing plant compounds, and currently facing important market gaps and significant unmet needs that MH-B can satisfy efficiently using its unique technologies.
MH-B’s business development activities will be driven by
|
|
|
| 1. | Needs and requests of prospective customers for plant-based discovery projects and/or production projects targeting promising complex plant products in development and/or already commercialized; and; |
|
|
|
| 2. | Innovative product concepts identified through market intelligence and DMU research to be developed internally and/or in partnerships |
COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES
MH-B will focus on two commercial activities.
1- Discovery and development of new plant-based products
The Company exploits the natural and novel chemodiversity, that it can generate using its Phytomics Technologies. This offers the cosmetic, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries a new paradigm for the discovery and development of novel products of plant origin, based on its current library of > 160,000 purified phytochemical fractions fully compatible with HTS technologies, and unique expertise and Plant Product Discovery Platform. The strength of this library was shown by partial screening using 11 molecular targets and cellular assays to yield 173 biologically active molecules, of which 59 were new chemical entities. MH-B has the expertise and technologies to expand its purified phytochemical library, including for plant species of interest to partners. Chemical characterization of bioactive compounds can also be conducted in house.
Typicalpartnered product discovery and development projects will usually involve
|
|
|
| 1. | Selection by the partner of generic or proprietary molecular targets, cellular assays and/or of fraction library to be screened; the latter may be MH-B’s current library or specialized libraries developed by MH-B according to the partner’s requirements; |
|
|
|
| 2. | Screening by MH-B or the partner fractions using selected targets and assays; |
33
|
|
|
| 3. | Identification and short term supply of active compounds by MH-B; and |
|
|
|
| 4. | If the promising plant products are complex, production of pilot (for product development) and commercial quantities of products for the partner and/or final commercializing company. |
These projects will be structured as follows.
|
|
|
|
| 1. | The partner pays | |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Licensing fees to access MH-B’s technologies and phytochemical library, |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | R&D costs based on a full FTE (Full Time Equivalent) basis that includes profits, or reduced FTE cost (with profits) in exchange for increased milestone and royalty payments to be negotiated, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Pre-negotiated milestones (when attained) and royalty (at commercialization) payments. |
|
|
|
|
| 2. | The partner obtains | |
|
|
| |
|
| • | Co-ownership of product IP, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Full commercialization rights with performance clauses. |
|
|
|
|
| 3. | MH-B’s retains | |
|
|
| |
|
| • | Co-ownership of product IP, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Full ownership of production technologies and IP and exclusive industrial scale production rights for complex plant products (2nd commercial activity). |
for which it will retain full product and production IP ownership. Thereafter, MH-B Additionally, MH-B intends to pursue its owninternal product discovery projects will out-license to high profile partners these products for co-development and co-commercialization, which will include license fees, development revenues, milestone and royalty payments as well as exclusive production rights for complex plant products (2nd commercial activity).
In the Pharmaceutical domain, MH-B will actively seek partnered drug discovery projects. In addition, the company has unique expertise in infectious disease and has internally developed promising programs that it will pursue to appropriate levels for subsequent high value partnering with major pharmaceutical companies.
In the cosmetic and nutraceutical domains, the company has already identified a certain number of potential product discovery partnerships (section 4.4.1), one of which has already been signed, that it will pursue actively. MH-B will actively seek new opportunities in these areas. Furthermore, MH-B has identified significant new product opportunities in the cosmetic industry that it intends to pursue internally and/or in partnership.
2- Industrial-scale production of complex plant products of commercial relevance using Phytomics-based bioprocesses
The second commercial activity targets partners that are either selling, intend to conduct or are already conducting product development activities (also with MH-B), including clinical trials on complex plant products that can be obtained using traditional approaches only with great difficulties and at high costs. These products include
|
|
|
| A. | Partly purified extracts or highly purified phytochemical fractions poorly characterized chemically, whose compounds, or composition cannot be reproduced synthetically, whose supply, using traditional approaches, is problematic, or which contain undesirable components (color, odor, nuisance impurities etc.) difficult to remove at reasonable costs (for example the J&J project discussed in section 4.4.2); and |
|
|
|
| B. | Purified complex phytochemicals, that cannot be synthesized at industrial scale or produced in sufficient quantities through natural biomass extraction and purification processes, at reasonable costs (Ex.: Taxol™ & Taxotere™). |
Generally, secured, consistent and reproducible supply, in sufficient quantities, of these complex plant products, using traditional approaches, is highly problematic. Uncontrollable uncertainties of supply include political and social issues, poor agricultural and harvesting practices, rare, exotic, endangered, protected and/or slow growing plant species etc. These represent critical issues in conducting reliable product development activities and for subsequent commercialization that remain very difficult to resolve for non-specialist companies.
In the Pharmaceutical domain, MH-B will actively seek production projects. The company has finalized a contact with Pierre Fabre, a French pharmaceutical company, on April 11th 2006.
34
In the cosmetic and nutraceutical domains, the company has already identified a certain number of potential production projects, one of which is being discussed with a cosmetic and consumer multinational. MH-B will actively seek new opportunities in these areas.
A key issue in any cell-based industrial scale production remains the economics of the bioprocess. Traditional approaches to plant cell culture bioengineering have yielded limited industrial success, as underlined in Appendix A (section A.1), in focusing on single products. Still, PhytonBiotech is successful in producing taxane derivatives at industrial scale using a plant-cell based bioprocess. The Phytomics Technologies, which represent significant advances in this field, are solving the limitations previously encountered in plant-cell based bioprocessing. MH-B’s strategy in this area focuses on producing multiple plant products for various customers in the three industries targetedall using the same basic production technologies, including downstream processing operations. This offers important economies of scale in R&D and production and the opportunity for full utilization of planned production facilities that will translate into higher profit margins as well as significant risk reduction. Furthermore, MH-B’s offering of pilot and industrial scale facilities for secured and reproducible production of complex plant products represents an important marketing tool in attracting partners for high value plant product discovery projects.
Typicalproduction projects will usually three phases.Phase I. Feasibility Study involves the development of productive plant cell lines and appropriate culture and downstream processing (extraction, separation & purification) protocols for the production, at high yield and at the target quality level, of the desired product(s). A technico-economical model of this process is also developed to assess the economics of the industrial scale bioprocess. At the end of this work, the partner decides if he wants to undertake further bioprocess development depending on the expected market and production costs of the desired product(s).
DuringPhase II. Pilot Scale Production, the optimized production bioprocess, including downstream processing operations, is developed at pilot level (50 L to 300 L bioreactors; 100 g to kg of product(s)) to validate experimental results obtained at small scale, confirm bioprocess economics and define main scale up parameters. This work also involves production, by MH-B, of pilot quantities (100 g to kg) of desired product(s) at target quality level for partner’s product development activities.
Finally,Phase III. Industrial Scale Production involves the development, by MH-B, of the industrial scale bioprocess for commercial production of desired product(s) and Industrial scale production by MH-B (or subsidiary) of desired product(s) for commercialization.
These projects will be carried out in partnerships and internally, for prospective high potential products. Partnered projects and will be structured as follows.
|
|
|
|
| 1. | The partner pays | |
|
|
| |
|
| • | Licensing fees to access MH-B’s Phytomics Technologies, |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | R&D costs on areduced FTE basis (over US$190,000/FTE) that includes profits, |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Pre-negotiated milestone payments depending on production levels attained and forecasted production costs at Phase I and II of the project, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Pilot scale quantities of desired product(s) for development purposes. |
|
|
|
|
| 2. | MH-B’s retains | |
|
|
| |
|
| • | Full ownership of production technologies and IP and exclusive industrial scale production rights, |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Co-ownership of IP generated from new products discovered during MH-B’s bioprocess development work in the partner’s specific application field, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Full ownership of IP generatde from new products discovered during MH-B’s bioprocess development work in application fields other that of the partner’s. |
|
|
|
|
| 3. | MH-B obtains | |
|
|
| |
|
| • | Royalty payment on final sales of original product(s), |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Exclusive, long term commercial production contract for original product(s) at minimum annual production level and specified and indexed selling price, |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Milestone and royalty payments for new products discovered from MH-B’s bioprocess development work in the partner’s specific application field, |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Exclusive, long term commercial production contract for new products, discovered from MH-B’s bioprocess development work in the partner’s specific application field, at minimum annual production level and specified and indexed selling price, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| • | New products discovered from MH-B’s bioprocess development work in application fields other that of the partner’s. |
35
PURSUING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PHYTOMICS AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES
In order to maintain its state-of-the art expertise and increase its competitive advantages in industrial plant biotechnology and phytochemistry, MH-B will pursue the development of its Phytomics Technologies. Within the next 3 years and as illustrated in section 4.6, Phytomics R&D activities will be focused on
|
|
|
| 1. | Maintaining MH-B’s extensive collection of over 2,200 plant species in culture, which represent an immense source of natural and novel phytochemodiversity immediately available for discovery and production projects as well as a powerful tool in marketing MH-B Phytomics bioprocesses to prospective partners; |
|
|
|
| 2. | Developing and implementing suitable cryo-preservation protocols and systems for long term, secured conservation of MH-B’s extensive collection of plant species in culture, especially with respect to patent requirements and industrial scale production of high value plant products; |
|
|
|
| 3. | Pursuing the development of the basic plant cell culture bioprocess, using novel bioengineering and genetic engineering approaches applied to model and commercial biosystems in development, in order to maximize yields and productivity of targeted products; |
|
|
|
| 4. | Developing and optimizing downstream operations at pilot scale (10-100 g), including those directly interfacing the cell culture process, in order to improve net production yields of purified targeted products; |
|
|
|
| 5. | Scaling up the Phytomics Technologies from the current 50 L bioreactor to industrial size bioreactors of much larger quantities, including associated downstream processing operations, for the production of purified plant products; this investment project will be undertaken with respect to current and anticipated market demand for discovery and production projects. |
|
|
|
| 6. | Replenishing and expanding the company’s purified phytochemical library with respect to current and anticipated demand for discovery projects since this expensive undertaking involves long lead times. |
MH-B will also develop a generic technico-economic model that can be applied to a variety of production projects to evaluate their main economic parameters and financial viability.
Co-currently, MH-B also intends to develop cGMP extraction, formulation, encapsulation and packaging facilities that will initially be used for natural source MMH™ products being commercialized by its parent company, Millenia Hope Inc.
These activities will be financed internally and through contribution from product discovery and production projects. In due course, MH-B intends to develop its own industrial scale production facilities to meet market increasing demands.

Committees
We have no standing audit, nominating and compensating committees of the Board of Directors or committees performing similar functions. Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, each public company is required to have an audit committee consisting solely of independent directors and to explain whether or not any independent director is a financial expert. In the event the public company does not have an audit committee, the Board of Directors becomes charged with the duties of the audit committee. We intend to adopt such a committee upon the acceptance of the present Registration by the Securities Exchange Commission. In the event we are successful in the future in obtaining independent directors to serve on the Board of Directors and on a newly formed audit committee, of which there can be no assurances given, the Board of Directors would first adopt a written charter. Such charter would be expected to include, among other things:
- annually reviewing and reassessing the adequacy of the committees formal charter;
- reviewing the annual audited financial statements with the adequacy of its internal accounting controls;
- reviewing analyses prepared by our management and independent auditors concerning significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of its financial statements;
- being directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the independent auditor, which shall report directly to the Audit Committee, including resolution of disagreements between management and the auditors regarding financial reporting for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;
- reviewing the independence of the independent auditors;
- reviewing our auditing and accounting principles and practices with the independent auditors and reviewing major changes to our auditing and accounting principles and practices as suggested by the independent auditor or its management;
- reviewing all related party transactions on an ongoing basis for potential conflict of interest situations; and
- all responsibilities given to the Audit Committee by virtue of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
42
Code of Ethics
Effective March 3, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission requires registrants like us to either adopt a code of ethics that applies to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer or explain why we have not adopted such a code of ethics. For purposes of item 406 of Regulations S-K, the term “code of ethics” means written standards that are reasonably designed to deter wrong doing and to promote:
- Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships:
- Full, flair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the company files with, or submits to, the Securities & Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;
- Compliance with applicable governmental law, rules and regulations;
- The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and
- Accountability for adherence to the code.
Upon acceptance of the present Registration, we will adopt the aforementioned Code of Ethics.

The holders of our common stock are entitled to dividends as our board of directors may declare from time to time from legally available funds subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any shares of our preferred stock that we may issue in the future.
Our certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in connection with the election of directors. Accordingly, directors will be elected by a plurality of the shares voting once a quorum is present. No holder of our common stock will have any preemptive right to subscribe for any shares of capital stock issued in the future.
Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share, on a pro rata basis, all assets remaining after payment to creditors and subject to prior distribution rights of any shares of preferred stock that we may issue in the future. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, so the holders of more than 50% of the combined shares voting for the election of directors may elect all of the directors if they choose to do so, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any members to the Board of Directors.
Preferred Stock
We are presently authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.0001 par value. As of September 5, 2006, there were 829,554 shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
The characteristics of our Preferred Stock have not been determined by our Board of Directors.
All of the stock owned by the selling security holders will be registered by the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The selling security holders may sell some or all of their shares immediately after they are registered. The selling security holders shares may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling stockholders or by pledgees, donees or transferees of, or successors in interest to, the selling stockholders, directly to one or more purchasers (including pledgees) or through brokers, dealers or underwriters who may act solely as agents or may acquire shares as principals, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The distribution of the shares may be effected in one or more of the following methods:
|
|
|
| * | ordinary brokers transactions, which may include long or short sales, |
77
|
|
|
| * | transactions involving cross or block trades on any securities exchange or market where our common stock is trading, |
| ||
| * | Purchases by brokers, dealers or underwriters as principal and resale by such purchasers for their own accounts pursuant to this prospectus, “at the market” to or through market makers or into an existing market for the common stock, |
| ||
| * | in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents, |
|
|
|
| * | through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives (whether exchange listed or otherwise), or |
|
|
|
| * | any combination of the foregoing, or by any other legally available means. |
In addition, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers who may engage in short sales, if short sales were permitted, of shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that require the delivery by such broker-dealers of the shares, which shares may be resold thereafter pursuant to this prospectus.
Brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the shares may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary commissions). The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers acting in connection with the sale of the shares hereunder may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, and any commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on the resale of shares as principals may be deemed underwriting compensation under the Securities Act of 1933. Neither the selling stockholders nor we can presently estimate the amount of such compensation. We know of no existing arrangements between the selling stockholders and any other stockholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of the selling security holders pursuant to this prospectus. We have agreed to bear the expenses of the registration of the shares, including legal and accounting fees, and such expenses are estimated to be approximately $25,000.
We have informed the selling stockholders that certain anti-manipulative rules contained in Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may apply to their sales in the market and have furnished the selling stockholders with a copy of such rules and have informed them of the need for delivery of copies of this prospectus. The selling stockholders may also use Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 to sell the shares if they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of such rule.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Millenia Hope Inc, majority shareholder of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, undertook to issue a 6% stock dividend, to all Millenia Hope Shareholders of record July 3, 2006, constituting in aggregate 2,400,000 common shares of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals Inc. to its shareholders, numbering an excess of 2,000.
Other than as noted above, none of the directors, executive officers or any member of the immediate family of any director or executive officer has been indebted to us since its inception. We have not and do not intend to enter into any additional transactions with our management or any nominees for such positions. We have not and do not intend to enter into any transactions with our beneficial owners, with the exception of our parent company, Millenia Hope Inc.

ITEM 24. | INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS. |
Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws provide that we shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by Canadian law any person whom we may indemnify thereunder, including our directors, officers, employees and agents. Such indemnification (other than as ordered by a court) shall be made by us only upon a determination that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the individual met the applicable standard of conduct i.e., such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interest. Advances for such indemnification may be made pending such determination. Such determination shall be made by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of disinterested directors, or by independent legal counsel or by the stockholders. In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation provides for the elimination, to the extent permitted by Canada, of personal liability of our directors and our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as directors.
We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 26. | RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. |
On September 1, 2000 the Company entered into a subscription agreement and issued 10,000 common shares to Millenia Hope Inc., at its par value of $0.0001.
On February 14, 2002 the Company entered into a subscription agreement and issued 39,990,000 common shares to Millenia Hope Inc., as its par value of $0.0001.
82
All of the above issuances of shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance of such shares by us did not involve a public offering. Each of these shareholders was a sophisticated investor and had access to information regarding us. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received a share certificate bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act. These restrictions ensure that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for the above transactions.

ITEM 28. | UNDERTAKINGS. |
|
|
(A) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: | |
|
|
|
(1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to: |
|
|
|
(i) |
| Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
|
| |
(ii) |
| Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
|
|
|
(iii) |
| Include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
|
|
(2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
(3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
(B) Undertaking Required by Regulation S-B, Item 512(e).
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel that the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(C) Undertaking Required by Regulation S-B, Item 512(f)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholder
Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of November 30, 2004, and the related statements of operations, stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the year ended November 30, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial statements show the Company has no revenues and relies upon its parent Company to fund its operations. This factor raises 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.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of November 30, 2004, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholder
Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of November 30, 2005, and the related statements of operations, stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial statements show the Company has no revenues and relies upon its parent Company to fund its operations. This factor raises 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.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of November 30, 2005, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2005 and 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

|
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
|
|
| Use of Estimates |
|
|
| The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain amounts included in the financial statements are estimated based on currently available information and management’s judgement as to the outcome of future conditions and circumstances. |
|
|
| Changes in the status of certain facts or circumstances could result in material changes to the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions. |
|
|
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
|
|
| Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of November 30, 2005. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for financial instruments because they are short term in nature, their carrying amounts approximate fair values, and they are payable on demand. |
|
|
| Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|
|
| The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of ninety days or less and bank indebtedness to be cash and cash equivalents. |
|
|
| Revenue Recognition |
|
|
| The Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. |

| Earnings (Loss) Per Share | ||
|
|
|
|
| The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During the periods presented common stock equivalents were not considered, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. | ||
|
|
|
|
| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ||
|
|
|
|
| In March 2006, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140,” with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement: | ||
|
|
|
|
|
| 1. | Requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. | Requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. | Permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 4. | At its initial adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under SFAS No. 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity’s exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. | Requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
| Adoption of this Statement is required as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. | ||
|
|
|
|
| In February 2006, the FASB issues SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140.” This amends SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” and No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” This Statement resolves issues addressed in SFAS No. 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.” |

|
|
|
|
| This Statement: | ||
|
|
|
|
|
| a. | Permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation |
|
|
|
|
|
| b. | Clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS No. 133 |
|
|
|
|
|
| c. | Establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation |
|
|
|
|
|
| d. | Clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives |
|
|
|
|
|
| e. | Amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. |
|
|
|
|
| This Statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. | ||
|
|
|
|
| The fair value election provided for in paragraph 4(c) of this Statement may also be applied upon adoption of this Statement for hybrid financial instruments that had been bifurcated under paragraph 12 of SFAS No. 133 prior to the adoption of this Statement. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of our fiscal year, provided we have not yet issued financial statements, including financial statements for any interim period, for that fiscal year. Provisions of this Statement may be applied to instruments that we hold at the date of adoption on an instrument-by-instrument basis. | ||
|
|
|
|
| The Company is currently reviewing the effects of adoption of this statement but it is not expected to have a material impact on its financial statements. | ||
|
|
|
|
| In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections--a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements,” and changes the requirements for the accounting for, and reporting of, a change in accounting principle. This Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. When a pronouncement includes specific transition provisions, those provisions should be followed. | ||
|
|
|
|
| SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. It will only affect the financial statements of the Company if there is a change any accounting principle. At this time, no such changes are contemplated or anticipated. | ||
|
|
|
|
| In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments.” SFAS No. 123 (R) requires all entities to recognize compensation expense in an amount equal to the fair value of share-based payments such as stock options granted to employees. SFAS No. 123 (R) is effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of FAS 123 (R) did not have a material impact on the financial statements. | ||

3. | Income Taxes |
|
|

Deferred tax assets and liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the currently enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. |

MILLENIA HOPE PHARMACEUTICALS INC.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MAY 31, 2006
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Canada on January 13, 2000 under the Canada Business Corporations Act, or CBCA. The Company does business as Millenia Hope Biopharma (MH-B) and is a Montreal-based biotechnology company focused on exploiting major advancements in accessing a source of biologically active compounds, plants, to discover, develop and produce new products for human health and well being. The Company commenced commercial activity on February 14, 2006, upon completion of the acquisition of assets from a third party. The Company is a majority owned subsidiary of Millenia Hope Inc.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Millenia Hope Pharmaceuticals Inc. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes thereto of the Company as of November 30, 2005.
NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain amounts included in the financial statements are estimated based on currently available information and management’s judgment as to the outcome of future conditions and circumstances. Changes in the status of certain facts or circumstances could result in material changes to the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During the periods presented common stock equivalents were not considered, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, generally 3-5 years.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred and expenditures for significant improvements are capitalized. The cost of property and equipment retired or sold, together with the related accumulated depreciation, are removed from the appropriate asset and depreciation accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in operations.
NOTE 4. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
During the quarter ended May 31, 2006, the Company issued 829,554 shares of 6% Cumulative Preferred Stock at $1.00 per share, in payment of advances from shareholder of $829,554.
NOTE 5. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
On February 14, 2006, the Company purchased intellectual property and research equipment from Avance Pharma, an unrelated party, for $526,270 in cash. During the quarter ended May 31, 2006, the Company recorded depreciation expense of $26,313.
NOTE 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On June 5, 2006, the Board of Directors of the parent company authorized the payment of a dividend to all shareholders of the parent company of record on July 3, 2006. The dividend consists of 6% of the issued shares, or a total of 2,400,000 shares, of the shares held by the parent. The effect of this transaction is to decrease the ownership by the parent company by 2,400,000 shares and increase the number of shareholders to approximately 2,000.
