NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The financial statements as of September 30, 1996 and for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited. In the opinion of
management, these unaudited financial statements include all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995, as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results
for the full years.
(2) Related Party Transactions
During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company made miscellaneous
non-interest-bearing cash advances to the President and CEO totaling $7,000. In
addition, the officer repaid $31,000 of a demand promissory note during the year
ended December 31, 1995. This brought the outstanding balance of total
miscellaneous non-interest-bearing cash advances to the officer to $132,000 at
December 31, 1995. The balance due from the officer at October 31, 1996 was
$112,000. The officer has provided the Company with a demand promissory note
pursuant to which the officer is obligated to repay the debt over a twenty-four
month period ending April 30, 1997.
(3) Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding. Common Stock equivalents are not included in the computation
of average shares outstanding because they are anti-dilutive.
(4) Reclassification
Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to
current year presentation.
(5) Subsequent Events
During October 1996, the Company signed a commitment letter with a
financing company to lease laboratory and computer-related equipment and make
certain building and leasehold improvements to existing facilities for up to
$2,500,000. Several leases may be signed with an aggregate cost of not less than
$75,000 per lease. Each lease has a fair market value purchase option at the
expiration of a 42 month term. Upon the closing of the first lease commencement,
the Company is required to issue to the finance company a warrant to purchase
approximately 25,000 shares of its common stock at the market price at the time
of the commitment.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis by management is provided to identify
certain significant factors which affected the Company's financial position and
operating results during the periods included in the accompanying financial
statements.
Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
Revenues for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 were
$225,000 and $725,000, respectively. Revenues for both periods included research
and development support fees from its corporate partnership with American
Cyanamid Company in infectious disease vaccines. In addition, revenues for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 included contract research fees of $500,000
from the Company's strategic alliance with Abbott Laboratories in diagnostics.
Total operating expenses for the nine-month periods ended September 30,
1996 and September 30, 1995 were $10,219,000 and $8,438,000, respectively.
Research and development expenses for the nine-month periods ended September 30,
1996 and September 30, 1995 were $7,601,000 and $6,098,000, respectively. Such
amounts for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and September 30,
1995 represented 74% and 72%, respectively, of total operating expenses. The
increase in research and development expenses is attributable to the costs
incurred to manufacture the Company's lead product candidate, C225, as well as
increased research and development activities on other product candidates.
General and administrative expenses include administrative personnel costs,
costs incurred in connection with pursuing arrangements with corporate partners
and expenses associated with applying for patent protection for the Company's
technology and products. Such expenses for the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995 were $2,618,000 and $2,340,000,
respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses is
attributable to the costs associated with the expanded efforts in pursuing
strategic alliances.
Interest and other income was $695,000 for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1996 compared to $3,050,000 for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1995. The decrease was primarily attributable to the April 1995
sale of a portion of the Company's preferred and common stock holdings in Cadus
Pharmaceutical Corporation to an unrelated party for $3,000,000. Such decrease
was partially mitigated by increased interest income earned from higher cash
balances in the Company's investment portfolio resulting from the proceeds
received from public stock offerings which were completed in November 1995 and
February 1996. Interest and other expense was $691,000 and $698,000 for the
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995,
respectively. Interest and other expense for both periods primarily includes
interest on two outstanding Industrial Development Revenue Bonds with an
aggregate principal amount of $4,313,000, interest recorded on the liability to
Pharmacia and UpJohn, Inc. for the reacquisition of the worldwide rights to
IL-6m and the contract manufacture of clinical material, and interest accrued
and the amortization of the non-cash debt discount recorded in connection with
the Company's August 1995 financing with the Oracle Group. See "Liquidity and
Capital Resources".
The Company had net losses of $11,257,000 or $0.59 per share, and
$5,361,000 or $0.42 per share, for the nine-month periods ended September 30,
1996 and September 30, 1995, respectively. The net loss for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 1996 included a $1,267,000 or $0.07 per share
extraordinary loss on early extinguishment of debt through the issuance during
the second quarter of Company Common Stock in lieu of cash repayment of a
$2,500,000 loan due the Oracle Group and a $180,000 long-term note owed to a
Company Director. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for further discussion
of these transactions.

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
Revenues for the three-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 were
$75,000 and $575,000 respectively. Revenues for both periods included research
and development support fees from its corporate partnership with American
Cyanamid Company in infectious disease vaccines. In addition, revenues for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 included contract research fees of
$500,000 from the Company's strategic alliance with Abbott Laboratories in
diagnostics.
Total operating expenses for the three-month periods ended September 30,
1996 and September 30, 1995 were $3,714,000 and $2,823,000, respectively.
Research and development expenses for the three-month periods ended September
30, 1996 and September 30, 1995 were $2,683,000 and $2,071,000, respectively.
Such amounts for the three-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and September
30, 1995 represented 72% and 73%, respectively, of total operating expenses. The
increase in research and development expenses is attributable to the costs
incurred to manufacture the Company's lead product candidate, C225, as well as
increased research and development activities on other product candidates.
General and administrative expenses include administrative personnel costs,
costs incurred in connection with pursuing arrangements with corporate partners
and expenses associated with applying for patent protection for the Company's
technology and products. Such expenses for the three-month periods ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995 were $1,031,000 and $752,000,
respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses is
attributable to the costs associated with the expanded efforts in pursuing
corporate partnerships.
Interest and other income was $241,000 for the three-month period ended
September 30, 1996 compared to $30,000 for the three-month period ended
September 30, 1995. The increase is due to higher cash balances in the Company's
investment portfolio resulting from the proceeds received from public stock
offerings which were completed in November 1995 and February 1996. Interest and
other expense was $144,000 and $297,000 for the three-month periods ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995, respectively. Interest and other
expense for both periods primarily includes interest on two outstanding
Industrial Development Revenue Bonds with an aggregate principal amount of
$4,313,000 and interest recorded on the liability to Pharmacia and UpJohn, Inc.
for the reacquisition of the worldwide rights to IL-6m and the contract
manufacture of clinical material. The decrease in interest and other expense is
primarily attributable to the exchange of debt for Company Common Stock with the
Oracle Group. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for further discussion of
this transaction.
The Company had a net loss of $3,542,000 or $0.18 per share for the
three-month period ended September 30, 1996 compared with a net loss of
$2,515,000 or $0.19 per share for the three-month period ended September 30,
1995.
Page 6 of 11
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's cash and cash equivalents and securities available for sale
totaled $14,353,000 at November 13, 1996; on September 30, 1996 such balances
totaled $15,344,000.
The Company owned 28% of the common and preferred stock of Cadus until
December 1994 when it completed the sale of 50% of its holdings in Cadus to High
River Limited Partnership ("High River") for $3,000,000. In April, 1995, the
Company completed the sale of the remaining one-half of its shares of capital
stock of Cadus for $3,000,000 to the same party. The Company had the right to
repurchase all 3,238,184 shares of Cadus any time prior to October 27, 1996 for
$1.75 per share, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The Company
did not exercise the repurchase right. In exchange for such right, the Company
granted to High River two options to purchase shares of Common Stock. One option
is to purchase 150,000 shares at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject
to adjustment under certain circumstances, and the other option is to purchase
300,000 shares at an exercise price per share of $0.69 per share, subject to
adjustment under certain circumstances. Both options will expire on April 26,
2000.
In August 1995, the Oracle Group purchased 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock
for a purchase price of $1,500,000 and made a two-year loan to the Company in
the amount of $2,500,000 at an annual interest rate of 8%. Part or all of the
loan was subject to mandatory prepayment at the request of the investors, upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the raising of certain additional
funds. The obligations of the Company in connection with the loan were secured
by a lien on the Company's Branchburg, New Jersey manufacturing facility. The
Company recorded a non-cash debt discount of approximately $1,062,500 in
connection with this financing. The Oracle Group includes Oracle Partners, L.P.,
Quasar International Partners C.V., Oracle Institutional Partners L.P., Sam
Oracle Fund, Inc. and Warren B. Kanders. The Oracle Group also received warrants
exercisable at any time until August 10, 2000 entitling the holders thereof to
purchase an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per
share and 500,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $3.00 per share. As a
result of the Company's offerings of shares of its Common Stock in November 1995
and February 1996, the Oracle Group was entitled to require the Company to apply
20 percent of the gross proceeds of the sale of the shares of Common Stock from
the offerings to repay the loan.
In May 1996 the Company and the Oracle Group exchanged the notes evidencing
the loan for 333,333 shares of Common Stock based on a stock price of $7.50. The
market price of the Company's stock on April 15, 1996, the date on which the
Company reached agreement in principle with the Oracle Group for the exchange,
was $9.13 and the Company paid the accrued and unpaid interest through April 15,
1996 on the notes in the amount of $143,000 in cash. The Company recorded an
extraordinary loss of $1,228,000 on the extinguishment of debt. In July 1996,
the Company registered such shares of Common Stock with the Commission under a
registration statement in accordance with provisions of the 1933 Act.
In July 1995, a director loaned the Company $180,000 in exchange for a
long-term note due two years from issuance at an annual interest rate of 8%. As
part of the transaction, the director was granted 36,000 warrants to purchase
Company common stock at $1.50 per share and an additional 36,000 warrants to
purchase Company common stock at $3.00 per share. In May 1996, the Company and
the director exchanged the note for 24,000 shares of Common Stock based on a
stock price of $7.50. The market price of the Company's stock on April 15, 1996,
the date on which the Company reached agreement in principle with the director
for the exchange, was $9.13 and the Company paid the accrued and unpaid interest
on the note in the amount of $10,000 in cash. The Company recorded an
extraordinary loss of $39,000 on the extinguishment of the debt. In July 1996
the Company registered such shares of Common Stock with the Commission under a
registration statement in accordance with the provisions of the 1933 Act.
In February 1996, the Company completed a public sale of 2,200,000 shares
of Common Stock at a per share price to the public of $6.63. Net proceeds to the
Company from this sale totaled approximately $13,600,000 after deducting
expenses payable by the Company in connection with the offering and the
commission paid by the Company.

In May 1996, the Company extended its collaboration with Merck KGaA
("Merck") for the development of a therapeutic cancer vaccine, BEC-2, for use in
small-cell carcinoma and in malignant melanoma. The collaboration continues a
research and license agreement between the two companies signed in December
1990. Under the terms of the modified agreement, the Company could receive up to
$11,700,000 in license fees, research and development support and milestone
payments in addition to monies previously received in the original agreement. In
return, Merck has marketing rights to BEC-2 for all therapeutic indications
outside North America. Formerly the rights of Merck were confined to Europe,
Australia and New Zealand. Merck will also share in the development costs for
the United States and Europe and will pay all development costs in other
territories. The Company will be entitled to royalties based upon product sales
outside of North America.
During the current and next several years, the Company expects to incur
substantial additional research and development costs, including costs related
to pre-clinical and clinical trials, increased administrative expenses to
support its research and development operations and increased capital
expenditures for manufacturing capacity and various equipment needs. In June
1996, the Company and the New York Industrial Development Agency extended the
maturity of the Company's $2,113,000 repayment obligation to the NYIDA for the
1986 Industrial Revenue Bond, which was due on June 18, 1996, to December 15,
1997. In addition, the $2,200,000 Industrial Development Revenue Bond issued on
behalf of the Company in 1990 becomes due in 2004.
In July 1993, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the
worldwide rights to IL-6m, a blood cell growth factor, from Erbamont, now a
subsidiary of Pharmacia and UpJohn, Inc. ("Pharmacia"), which had been licensed
to Pharmacia pursuant to a development and licensing agreement. In consideration
of the return of rights and the transfer of certain material and information,
the Company has paid $900,000 and has further obligations to Pharmacia. Such
obligations, including those to pay for IL-6m material manufactured and supplied
by Pharmacia, totaled $2,400,000 at the end of 1994. In addition, the Company is
required to pay Pharmacia $2,700,000 in royalties on eventual sales of IL-6m, if
any. In March 1996, the Company entered into a Repayment Agreement with
Pharmacia by which it has agreed to pay the $2,400,000, including interest at
8.75%, over 24 months commencing in March 1996, with interest only payable
during the first six months. In connection with the Repayment Agreement, the
Company has signed a Confession of Judgment, which can be filed in the case of
default. Pursuant to a Security Agreement entered into with Pharmacia, the
Company has pledged its interests in patents related to its IL-6m and to
heparanase to secure its obligations under the Repayment Agreement.
The Company's future working capital and capital requirements will depend
upon numerous factors, including the progress of the Company's research and
development programs, pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, the Company's
corporate partners fulfilling their obligations to the Company, the timing and
cost of seeking regulatory approvals, the level of resources that the Company
devotes to the development of manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities,
technological advances, the status of competitors and the ability of the Company
to maintain existing and establish new collaborative arrangements with other
companies to provide funding to the Company to support these activities.
The Company's budgeted cash expenditures for the twelve month period ending
September 30, 1997 total approximately $17,400,000, which includes $1,713,000 of
the outstanding obligation to Pharmacia. The Company expects that its existing
capital resources and revenue stream will be sufficient to fund its capital
needs through mid-December 1997. In order to fund its capital needs after that
time, the Company will require significant levels of additional capital and
intends to raise the necessary capital through additional equity or debt
financing, arrangements with corporate partners or from other sources.
The Company has entered into preliminary discussions with several major
pharmaceutical companies concerning the funding of research and development for
certain of its products in research. No assurance can be given that the Company
will be successful in pursuing any such alternatives. In addition, the Company
may seek to enter into a significant strategic partnership with a pharmaceutical
company for the development of its lead product candidate, C225. Such a
strategic alliance could include an up-front equity investment and license fees
plus milestone fees and revenue sharing. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in achieving such an alliance, nor can the Company
predict the amount of funds which might be available to it if it entered into
such an alliance or the time at which such funds would be made available.

The Company has a clinical-grade manufacturing facility in Branchburg, New
Jersey. If clinical trials of its products continue to be successful, the
Company also intends to use the facility for manufacturing clinical material for
late-stage trials and, if products are approved for marketing, for commercial
material. The timing and costs of further adapting the facility for commercial
manufacturing will depend on several factors, including the progress of products
through clinical trials, and are not yet determinable.
Total capital expenditures made during the nine months ended September 30,
1996 were $450,000. $305,000 related to the refurbishment and equipping of the
Company's manufacturing facility in New Jersey while $145,000 reflected
scientific and computer-related equipment purchases for the research and
development laboratories at the Company's New York facility.
