NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2005 (Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
On May 9, 2002, GeneMax Corp. (“GMC” or the “company”), a Nevada corporation entered into a letter of intent to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of GeneMax Pharmaceuticals Inc. (a development stage company) (“GPI”), in exchange for a total of 11,431,965 restricted shares of common stock of GMC. During July and August, 2002 the company completed the transaction pursuant to a definitive Share Exchange Agreement and issued 11,231,965 restricted shares of common stock to the GPI stockholders and 200,000 shares of common stock as a finder’s fee. This acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger. GPI is a private Delaware company incorporated July 27, 1999 which has a wholly-owned subsidiary, GeneMax Pharmaceuticals Canada Inc. (“GPC”), a private British Columbia company incorporated May 12, 2000. GPI is a development stage company which was formed for the purpose of building a biotechnology business specializing in the discovery and development of immunotherapeutics aimed at the treatment and eradication of cancer, and therapies for infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders and transplant tissue rejection.
During 2000 GPI and the University of British Columbia (“UBC”) entered into a world-wide license agreement providing GPI the exclusive license rights to certain patented and unpatented technologies originally invented and developed by UBC. Also during 2000 GPI and UBC entered into a Collaborative Research Agreement (“CRA”) appointing UBC to carry out further development of the licensed technology and providing GPI the option to acquire the rights to commercialize any additional technologies developed within the CRA in consideration for certain funding commitments. The lead product resulting from these licenses is a cancer immunotherapy vaccine, on which the company has been completing pre-clinical work in anticipation of clinical trials. Specifically the company has advanced the technology through issuance of U.S. patents, tested various viral vectors needed to deliver the gene that forms the basis for the vaccine, licensed a preferred viral vector and contracted out production of a clinical grade vaccine. The company plans to continue development of the lead product vaccine (Transporters of Antigen Processing (“TAP”)) through clinical trials. The other technologies licensed include assays, which the company plans to use for generation of a pipeline of immune-modulation products. The assay technology acquired has received U.S. patent protection.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As at June 30, 2005, the company has a working capital deficiency of $1,720,293, a capital deficiency of $1,700,717 and has incurred significant losses since inception and further losses are anticipated in the development of its products raising substantial doubt as to the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital to fund ongoing research and development and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. Costs relating to future clinical trials of the company’s cancer immunotherapy vaccine are a part of normal product development and advancement. Since internally generated cash flow will not fund development and commercialization of the company’s products, the company will require significant additional financial resources and will be dependant on future financings to fund its ongoing research and development as well as other working capital requirements. The company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors including the rate and extent of scientific progress in its research and development programs, the timing, cost and scope involved in its clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals and pursuing further patent protections and the timing and costs of its commercialization activities. The company’s operations and financing requirements are expected to expand upon entering clinical trials with its TAP cancer vaccine.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and conforms with the instructions to Form 10-QSB of Regulation S-B. They may not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been presented in United States dollars and prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of the company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries GPI and GPC as described in Note 1. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the company’s financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring management’s estimates and assumptions are determining the fair value of stock-based compensation, the fair value of the components of the convertible notes payable and the useful life of furniture and equipment.
Furniture and Equipment
Furniture and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed at the following rates over the estimated useful lives of the assets: Office furniture and equipment — 36 months straight-line; Laboratory equipment — 60 months straight-line
Deferred Finance Fees
The company defers direct costs incurred in connection with the sale of common shares which are offset against the proceeds of the financing upon completion. Costs incurred in connection with Convertible loans payable are deferred and amortized as a financing cost over the term of the convertible loans. Upon conversion of the loan, any unamortized amount of deferred financing costs will be charged to stockholders’ equity as a cost of financing.
Research and Development Costs
The company has acquired exclusive development and marketing rights to certain technologies through various License Agreements and Research Agreements as described in Note 3. The rights and license acquired are considered rights to unproven technology which may not have alternate future uses and therefore, have been expensed as incurred as research and development costs. Also, ongoing costs incurred in connection with the Collaborative Research Agreement are considered costs incurred in the development of unproven technology which may not have alternate future uses and therefore, have been expensed as incurred as research and development costs.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, the company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The fair value of financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities including cash, accounts payable and amounts due to related parties approximate carrying values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The convertible notes payable have been recorded at estimated fair value (refer to Note 5).
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated into their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Income Taxes
The company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. At March 31, 2005 a full deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided and no deferred tax asset benefit has been recorded.
Net Loss per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings (loss) per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the company. The accompanying presentation is only of basic loss per share as the potentially dilutive factors are anti-dilutive to basic loss per share.
Stock-Based Compensation
In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Financial Accounting Standard No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS No. 148”), an amendment of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”). The purpose of SFAS No. 148 is to: (1) provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, (2) amend the disclosure provisions to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation, and (3) to require disclosure of those effects in interim financial information. The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 were effective for the company for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the required disclosures have been made below.
The company has elected to continue to account for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, (“APB No. 25”) and comply with the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 as amended by SFAS No. 148 as described above. In addition, in accordance with SFAS No. 123 the company applies the fair value method using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model in accounting for options granted to consultants. Under APB No. 25, compensation expense for employees is recognized based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant between the estimated fair value of the company’s stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense is recognized immediately for past services and pro-rata for future services over the option-vesting period.
In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the company applies the fair value method using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model in accounting for options granted to consultants.
The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as if the company had accounted for its for stock-based employee compensation using the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 using the assumptions as described in Note 7:

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
The company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) in Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”). Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.
The company has also adopted the provisions of the FASB No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation – An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 (“FIN 44”), which provides guidance as to certain applications of APB 25. FIN 44 is generally effective July 1, 2000 with the exception of certain events occurring after December 15, 1998.
NOTE 3 – RESEARCH AGREEMENTS
 
University of British Columbia (“UBC”)
Effective September 14, 1999 GPI entered into an Option Agreement (“Option”) whereby UBC granted GPI an option to obtain a world-wide license from UBC providing GPI the exclusive license rights to certain patented and unpatented cancer immuno-therapy technologies originally invented and developed by UBC. The Option was for a term of 180 days and prior to being eligible to exercise the Option, GPI was to make a reasonable commercial effort to raise equity funding in an amount not less than CAN$1,000,000 to fund ongoing research and issue 500,000 founders’ common shares to UBC and an additional 3,600,000 founders’ common shares to certain principals involved in the UBC research. Having satisfied all of the conditions on or before March 6, 2000, GPI exercised the Option and obtained from UBC, the exclusive license rights as described above for meeting the specific terms of the Option plus a further payment of $78,743. The License will terminate after 15 years or upon the expiration of the last patent obtained relating to the licensed technology. The cost of obtaining any patents will be the responsibility of GPI. The technology remains the property of UBC, however, it may be utilized and improved by GPI. Concurrent with the execution of the license the head researcher at UBC became a director of GPI.

NOTE 5 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
 
During the quarter ended June 30, 2004 the company issued two unsecured convertible promissory notes in the principal amount of $500,000, that bear interest at 8% per annum and are due twelve months from the date of issue. The unpaid amount of principal and interest may be converted at any time at the holder’s option into shares of the company’s common stock at a price of $0.60 per share. In addition, the holders of the notes were granted common stock purchase warrants entitling the holder to purchase an additional 416,667 shares of the company’s common stock at a price of $0.66 per share for a period of 2 years and the company granted a further 125,000 common stock purchase warrants with an estimated fair value of $15,000 as a finder’s fee entitling the holder to purchase an additional 83,333 shares of the company’s common stock at a price of $0.60 per share for a period of 2 years and 41,667 shares of the company’s common stock at a price of $0.66 per share for a period of 2 years.
The company also incurred $74,100 of costs in connection with this financing resulting in a total of $89,100 being recorded as deferred finance fees. These costs will be expensed over the term of the convertible promissory notes or the remaining unamortized amount will be charged to stockholders’ equity if the notes are converted. As of June 30, 2005 $89,100 (December 31, 2004 - $48,300) of the deferred finance fees have been expensed. As at June 30, 2005 $12,645 (December 31 2004 — $21,667) of accrued and unpaid interest is included in accounts payable.
The fair value of the convertible promissory notes at issuance was estimated to be $450,000 based on an estimated fair value interest rate on debt with comparable risk profiles of 20% per annum. As a result, the fair value of the equity component of this instrument (comprised of the common stock purchase warrants and the debt conversion feature) was estimated to be the remaining $50,000. The equity component was attributed entirely to the common stock purchase warrants and recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as the conversion feature did not have a beneficial intrinsic value and its fair value was otherwise determined not to be material. The company will record a further interest expense over the term of the notes of $50,000 resulting from the difference between the stated and fair value interest rates such that the carrying value of the notes will be increased to the face value of $500,000 at maturity. To January 31, 2005 a further interest expense of $4,150 was accrued resulting in a carrying value of the notes of $481,250 (December 31, 2004 — $477,100).
Effective January 31, 2005 the company amended the terms of the convertible notes payable to extend the maturity to April 28, 2006, reduce the conversion price from $0.60 to $0.30 and to reduce the warrant exercise price from $0.66 to $0.30 for the period to December 31, 2005 and to $0.50 for the remainder of the original warrant term. In addition the term of the warrants will be extended for a period of greater than the original two years up to a maximum of ten years dependent on the company obtaining specified listing status of the company’s common stock as per the amending agreement. As at the date of this modification, the company estimated the fair value of the modified convertible promissory notes to be $435,000 based on an estimated fair value interest rate on debt with comparable risk profiles of 20%. As a result, the fair value of the equity component of this modified instrument (being the amended common stock purchase warrants) was estimated to be $46,250. The company will record a further interest expense over the amended term of the notes of $65,000 resulting from the difference between the stated and fair value interest rates such that the carrying value of the notes will be increased to the face value of $500,000 at maturity. To June 30, 2005 a further interest expense of $21,667 has been accrued resulting in a carrying value of the notes of $456,667.

During 2004 the company entered into an agreement with the company’s new Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”).

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
 
There were no temporary differences between the company’s tax and financial bases that result in deferred tax assets, except for the company’s net operating loss carry forwards amounting to approximately $9,200,000 (December 31, 2004 — $8,900,000) which may be available to reduce future year’s taxable income. These carryforwards will expire, if not utilized, commencing in 2008. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these deferred tax assets appears uncertain due to the company’s limited operating history and continuing losses. Accordingly a full, deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided and no deferred tax asset benefit has been recorded.
NOTE 9 – LEGAL SETTLEMENT
 
The company requested that its former transfer agent, X-Clearing Corp. (“X-Clearing”), deliver company documents to a new transfer agent. X-Clearing claimed a security lien on company documents. Following filing of a complaint by the company, a preliminary court hearing was held in Denver CO on September 22, 2004, following which both sides agreed to attempt a voluntary mediation process. A resolution was not achieved in the mediation process and the company reinstituted court action to retrieve its records. The preliminary hearing court determination indicated that by providing proper notice of termination and posting of a bond in the amount of $250,000, it would likely cause X-Clearing to transfer the records of the company to a new transfer agent. The company has settled its lawsuit against X-Clearing as set forth at a hearing held March 18, 2005. As part of the settlement, the company agreed to pay X-Clearing a total of $200,000 which was accrued as at December 31, 2004. The amount is payable in two equal installments the first of which is due upon the ability of the new transfer agent to act for the company and the second of which is payable upon X-Clearing meeting certain conditions as outlined in the settlement. As at March 31, 2005, the company had posted the $250,000 bond which was been recorded as prepaid expenses and deposits. During the second quarter of 2005, the $200,000 was paid to X-Clearing and the remaining $50,000 was returned to the company net of certain legal costs incurred.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
We are focused on developing innovative therapeutics to treat serious disorders, primarily for cancer and infectious diseases. Since our inception, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to research and development activities, primarily with early stage research in the field of gene therapy. We are currently conducting preclinical studies using our TAP gene technology with the aim of completing our preclinical trials and filing an Investigational Drug Application for cancer in approximately 12 months. We are also pursuing vaccine developments for infectious diseases using our TAP gene technology and an in-licensed Modified Vaccinia Ankora virus with the aim of establishing licensing and partnering relationships to generate revenue and advance our in- house projects closer to commercial products.
We are a development stage company and have primarily supported the financial needs of our research and development activities since our inception through public offerings and private placements of our equity securities. We have not received any revenue from the sale of our products in development, and we do not anticipate generating revenue from the sale of products in the foreseeable future. In order to carry out our corporate operational plan and to support the anticipated future needs of our research and development activities, we expect that we will have cash requirements of approximately $6,000,000 over the next twenty-four months, which we expect to attempt to obtain through additional private placements of securities. The funding that we need would, if obtained, be used to support our activities pursuant to the Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of British Columbia, clinical grade production of our lead TAP vaccine product, commencement of human clinical studies, advance the development of our prophylactic vaccine campaign and proceed with potential acquisitions or in-licensing of new technologies or products. In the event that we are able to secure funding through the sale of the company’s securities, it is expected that we will expand the company’s management team to include a Director of Corporate Development and a Director of Regulatory Affairs. It is also anticipated that if we are able to advance our product development in oncology and prophylactic vaccines, we would incrementally increase the number of scientists employed under the Collaborative Research Agreement to approximately six from the current three.
If we are able to generate revenues in the next few years, we expect that the source of such revenue would most likely consist of payments under collaborative arrangements with third parties, government grants, and license fees. We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses over the next several years due to our lack of any substantial source of revenue and the continuation of our ongoing and planned research and development efforts, including preclinical studies and clinical trials. There can be no assurance that we will successfully acquire, develop, commercialize, manufacture, or market our product candidates or ever achieve or sustain product revenues or profitability.
We conduct our research and development at the University of British Columbia under the Collaborative Research Agreement, and contract out clinical grade production of our TAP based vaccines. In addition, we in-license one of our adeno and MVA vectors.
In August 2004, the Collaborative Research Agreement expired and could not be continued because the company lacked the financial resources. However, the University did not terminate the research activities and research and development continued at the University of British Columbia through December 2004 on the understanding that the expenses incurred would be paid once the company received further financing or would be incorporated into the terms of a new agreement. As of June 30, 2005, outstanding debt of GeneMax to the University incurred pursuant to this arrangement was approximately CAN$468,954.
The parties to the Collaborative Research Agreement have agreed to the principal terms of a renegotiated agreement which will provide for an estimated annual budget of CAN$295,000 (in quarterly installments of CAN$73,750) to allow for funding for one Ph.D. scientist and two support technicians. In addition, the University will continue to provide GeneMax with access to university laboratories and equipment at the University.
We have a Production Services Agreement with Molecular Medicine for the production of a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) grade TAP adeno based vaccine for pre-clinical toxicology analysis. However, in August 2004, we ceased production of one of our AdenoTAP vaccine candidates due to technical difficulties. The company has resolved technical issues for one of its AdenoTAP vaccine candidates and is currently in the process of assessing its productivity. Despite the technical difficulties we anticipate a clinical grade TAP based vaccine to be produced utilizing the adeno vector with the greatest productivity and to allow the company to meet its milestones for completing toxicology analysis by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006. We anticipate commencing clinical grade production of our oncology vaccine in October 2005.
The company was in breach of its contractual obligations with Molecular Medicine in respect of payments of $15,000 for Phase I of the project. The parties have agreed that advance payments that had been made for subsequent phases could be

allocated to the Phase I deficiency so that all payments that were due under the PSA have now been paid in full and the company has a credit of approximately $78,000 with Molecular Medicine to be applied towards future vaccine production.
We have a Research License and Option Agreement with Crucell (Netherlands) for the use of the PER C6 cell line for our in-house development programs.
As of the date of this report, approximately $245,000 was owing to Crucell. Pursuant to the Research License and Option Agreement, if a party defaults in the performance of or fails to be in compliance with any material condition of this agreement, the Research License and Option Agreement may be terminated if the default or noncompliance is not remedied or steps initiated to remedy are not taken within 3 months after notice in writing to the defaulting party. Crucell gave GeneMax notice of default on July 6, 2005. Genemax has until 3 months from the date of notice to remedy this issue.
We also have a License Agreement with the National Institute of Health (USA) for the use of the Modified Vaccinia Ankora (MVA) virus for the development of vaccines. We will continue to license this technology for the development of prophylactic vaccines against infectious diseases.
Plan of Operation and Funding
Over the next 12 months the company will focus its efforts to complete development and clinical grade production of its AdhTAP vaccine for oncology and develop its candidate vaccine for infectious disease. The company’s 12 month operational focus is to manage the lead vaccine candidates for both human cancer and for infectious disease through preclinical and toxicology studies and to advance these products for clinical trials in humans. The company’s current cash position should allow it to continue to operate until September of 2005. Management believes that an estimated $1,300,000 will be required over the next twelve months and a further $5,000,000 is required over the next two years for expenses associated with the balance of pre-clinical development and completion of Phase I clinical trials for the TAP Cancer Vaccine and for various operating expenses. If funding were available, the company plans to increase its research and development activities through outsourcing and collaborations with contract research organizations, industry partners and academic institutions. Over the next 12 months, the company does not plan to invest in the purchase of equipment and other associated infrastructural costs.
The company has not generated any cash flow to fund its operations and activities due primarily to the nature of lengthy product development cycles that are normal to the biotech industry. Therefore, the company must raise additional funds in the future to continue operations. Management believes that the company’s future viability is dependent on the company’s ability to raise additional capital through further private offerings of its stock or loans from private investors. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to conduct our proposed business operations successfully, which could significantly and materially restrict or delay the company’s overall business operations.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The company grants stock options to compensate certain employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the company. As the company is currently in the development stage, these stock options form a significant portion of the overall compensation provided by the company. As a result, the company’s accounting policy with respect to these grants of stock options is critical to the company’s overall financial statement presentation, financial position, and results of operations.
The company accounts for stock based compensation in connection with these stock option grants in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 and 148, Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44. For further details, refer to the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to the company’s consolidated financial statements contained herein.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. A key provision of this statement is the requirement of a public entity to measure the cost of employee

- 15 -


Table of Contents

services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments (including stock options) based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (i.e., the requisite service period or vesting period). This standard becomes effective for the company for its first annual or interim period ended on or after December 15, 2005. The company will adopt SFAS 123R no later than October 1, 2005. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS 123R will have on the company’s financial position and results of operations.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions (“SFAS 153”). SFAS 153 requires that exchanges of non-monetary assets are to be measured based on fair value and eliminates the exception for exchanges of non-monetary, similar productive assets, and adds an exemption for non-monetary exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Management does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the company’s financial position or results of operations.
Risk Factors
An investment in GeneMax entails certain risks that should be carefully considered. In addition, these risk factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected include the following:
We have a history of operating losses and need to raise funds immediately.
We continue to incur losses and are likely to require additional financing. We have incurred operating losses and negative cash flow from operations for most of our history. Losses incurred since our inception have aggregated $12,919,397 and there can be no assurance that we will be able to generate positive cash flows to fund our operations in the future or to pursue our strategic objectives. We believe that we will have sufficient cash to satisfy our needs until approximately the end of July 2005. If we are not able to operate profitably and generate positive cash flows, we will undoubtedly need to raise additional capital, most likely via the sale of equity securities, to fund our operations. If we do in fact need additional financing to meet our requirements, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all. Alternatively, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to existing stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may include restrictive covenants. If adequate funds are not available, we might be required to limit our research and development activities or our selling, marketing and administrative activities any of which could cause the company to cease operations.
We do not have any products that generate revenue and expect our operating losses to increase significantly as we commence clinical trials. We do not expect to earn significant revenue for several years, and may never do so.
The independent auditor’s report accompanying our December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements were prepared “assuming that the company will continue as a going concern,” which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital to fund ongoing research and development and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient additional capital or eventually positive cash flow from operations to address all of our cash flow needs.
We depend upon collaborative relationships and third parties for product development and commercialization, and are in breach of many of the agreements with these parties.
We have historically entered into research and development agreements with collaborative partners. Pursuant to these agreements, our collaborative partners provide us with the intellectual property and licenses of the intellectual property necessary to develop and commercialize our product candidates. We will continue to rely on future collaborative partners for the development of products and technologies. There can be no assurance that we will be able to negotiate such collaborative arrangements on acceptable terms, if at all, or that current or future collaborative arrangements will be successful. To the extent that we are not able to establish such arrangements, we could be forced to undertake such activities at our own expense. The amount and timing of resources that any of these partners devotes to these activities will generally be based on progress by us in our product development efforts. Some of our collaborative arrangements may be terminated by the partner upon prior notice without cause and there can be no assurance that any of these partners will perform its contractual obligations or that it will not terminate its agreement.

The Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of British Columbia expired on August 31, 2004. The parties to the Collaborative Research Agreement have agreed on the principle terms of a renegotiated agreement which will provide for an estimated annual budget of CAN$295,000 (in quarterly installments of CAN$73,750) to allow for funding for one Ph.D. scientist and two support technicians. In addition, the University will continue to provide GeneMax with access to university laboratories and equipment at the University. As at the date of this quarterly report, approximately CAN$468,954 is due to University of British Columbia. To the date of this filing, the University has continued the research activities associated with the Collaborative Research Agreement, however, they are not obliged to continue to do so.
To December 31, 2003, we have made payments total payment of $115,490 to Crucell Holland B.V. pursuant to the terms of the Research License and Option Agreement. However, a further $60,864 was due and payable on February 7, 2004, a further $60,103 (€ 50,000) was due and payable on August 7, 2004 and a further $64,300 was due and payable February 7, 2005, leaving $185,267 owing as of June 30, 2005 under the terms of the agreement. To date, the company had not these amounts. Pursuant to the Research License and Option Agreement, if a party defaults in the performance of or fails to be in compliance with any material condition of this agreement, the Research License and Option Agreement may be terminated if the default or noncompliance is not remedied or steps initiated to remedy within three months after notice in writing to the defaulting party. On July 6, 2005, GeneMax received notice of default from Crucell Holland.
The company was in breach of its license obligations with Crucell in respect of payments due under the license agreement. The parties are currently in discussions in order to remedy the company’s license obligations.
Pursuant to the Biological Materials Transfer Agreement with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, payments of $2,876 are now overdue, although the Public Health Service (PHS) has not issued a notice of default. PHS may terminate this Agreement if the company is in default in the performance of any material obligation under this Agreement, and if the default has not been remedied within ninety days after the date of written notice by PHS of such default.
Preclinical testing and future clinical trials may take longer than anticipated, and we may be unable to complete them at all.
While management believes that the Phase I human clinical trials of the TAP Cancer Vaccine in oncology will commence during the second or third quarter of fiscal year 2006 there can be no assurances that they will occur on this time frame, if at all. We may not commence or complete the pivotal clinical trials of the TAP Cancer Vaccine or commence or complete clinical trials involving any other product candidates or may not conduct them successfully. Further, our development costs will increase if we experience any future delays in the preclinical trials or clinical trials for the TAP Cancer Vaccine or other potential products or if we are required to perform additional or larger clinical trials than currently planned. Any substantial delay of or the failure to complete the clinical trials would have a material adverse effect upon our business.
If testing of a particular product candidate does not yield successful results, then we will be unable to commercialize that product. We must demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the TAP Cancer Vaccine and its other potential products in humans through extensive preclinical and clinical testing. We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, the testing process that could delay or prevent commercialization of our product candidates. Further, clinical testing is very expensive, the process takes many years, and the outcome is uncertain. Unsuccessful results from preclinical and clinical testing will have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our products and activities are subject to regulation by various governments and government agencies.
The testing of our products is subject to regulation by numerous governmental authorities, principally the United States Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and certain foreign regulatory agencies. Pursuant to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and the regulations promulgated there under, the FDA regulates the preclinical and clinical testing, development, and commercialization of our potential products. Noncompliance with applicable requirements can result in, among other consequences, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, repair, replacement or refund of the cost of products, total or partial suspension of production, failure of the government to grant pre-market clearance or pre-market approval for devices, withdrawal of marketing clearances or approvals, and criminal prosecution.
Government regulation imposes significant costs and restrictions on the development and commercialization of our products and services. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to satisfy regulatory requirements. We may not receive required regulatory approvals on a timely basis, if at all. Government agencies heavily regulate the production and sale of healthcare products and the provision of healthcare services. In particular, the FDA and comparable agencies in foreign countries must approve human therapeutic and diagnostic products before they are marketed, as well as the facilities in which they are made. This approval process can involve lengthy and detailed laboratory and clinical testing, sampling activities and other costly and

- 17 -


Table of Contents

time-consuming procedures. Our failure to comply with applicable regulatory approval requirements may lead regulatory authorities to take action against us, which may delay or cease the development and commercialization of our product candidates.
Therapies that have received regulatory approval for commercial sale may continue to face regulatory difficulties. The FDA and comparable foreign regulatory agencies, may require post-marketing clinical trials or patient outcome studies. In addition, regulatory agencies subject a marketed therapy, its manufacturer and the manufacturer’s facilities to continual review and periodic inspections. The discovery of previously unknown problems with a therapy, the therapy’s manufacturer or the facility used to produce the therapy could prompt a regulatory authority to impose restrictions on the therapy, manufacturer or facility, including withdrawal of the therapy from the market.
Competition in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry is, and is expected to remain, significant, and we may never obtain market acceptance of our product candidates.
Competition in the cancer therapeutics and infectious disease vaccine fields is intense and is accentuated by the rapid pace of technological development. Our competitors are domestic and international biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. Many of these companies have financial, technical, marketing, sales, manufacturing, distribution and other resources significantly greater than ours. In addition, many of these companies have name recognition, established positions in the market and long standing relationships with customers and distributors. Moreover, the industry has recently experienced a period of consolidation, during which many of the large domestic and international pharmaceutical companies have been acquiring mid-sized diagnostics companies, further increasing the concentration of resources. Our future success will depend on our ability to effectively develop and market our product candidates against those of our competitors. If our product candidates receive marketing approval, but cannot compete effectively in the marketplace, our business and financial position would suffer greatly. There can be no assurance that technologies will not be introduced that could be directly competitive with or superior to our technologies.
Market acceptance of the TAP Cancer Vaccine and our other product candidates is uncertain. Even if the TAP Cancer Vaccine and other potential products are approved and sold, physicians may not ultimately use them or may use them only in applications more restricted than we expect. Physicians will only prescribe a product if they determine, based on experience, clinical data, side effect profiles and other factors, that it is beneficial and preferable to other products and treatments then in use. Many other factors influence the adoption of new products, including marketing and distribution restrictions, course of treatment, adverse publicity, product pricing, the views of thought leaders in the medical community, and reimbursement by third-party payers. Failure to obtain market acceptance of our product candidates will have a material adverse effect upon our business.
We depend on key employees.
Due to the specialized nature of our business, our success will be highly dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific and executive personnel. Our success depends to a significant extent upon our key management, including Konstantine Sarafis, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Dr. Wilfred Jefferies, our Chief Scientific Officer. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting and retaining the personnel we require to develop and market our product candidates and to conduct our operations successfully. Failure to retain Mr. Sarafis or Dr. Jefferies would have a material adverse effect upon our business and our shareholders.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and license patent rights, to maintain trade secret protection and to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others.
Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection for the technology underlying our product candidates, both in the United States and in other countries. We cannot assure you that any of our current or future patent applications will result in issued patents, or that any patents issued to us or licensed by us will not be challenged, invalidated or held unenforceable. Further, we cannot guarantee that any patents issued to us will provide us with a significant competitive advantage. If we fail to successfully enforce our proprietary technology or otherwise maintain the proprietary nature of our intellectual property with respect to our significant current and proposed products, it would have a material adverse effect upon our business. We could incur substantial costs in defending the company or our licensees in litigation brought by others who claim that we are infringing on their intellectual property rights. The potential for reduced sales and increased legal expenses would have a negative impact on our cash flow and thus our overall business could be adversely affected.

The testing, manufacturing and marketing of therapeutic medical technology entails an inherent risk of product liability claims.
To date, we have experienced no product liability claims, but any such claims arising in the future could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Potential product liability claims may exceed the amount of our insurance coverage or may be excluded from coverage under the terms of our policy or limited by other claims under our umbrella insurance policy. Additionally, there can be no assurance that our existing insurance can be renewed by us at a cost and level of coverage comparable to that presently in effect, if at all. In the event that we are held liable for a claim against which we are not insured or for damages exceeding the limits of our insurance coverage, such claim could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow and thus potentially have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We use hazardous materials in some of our research and development activities.
Our research activities sometimes involve the controlled use of various hazardous materials. Although we believe that our safety procedures for handling and disposing of such materials comply with the standards prescribed by state and federal regulations, the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials cannot be completely eliminated. We could be held liable for any damages that might result from any such accident involving such hazardous materials. Any such liability could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
There has, to date, been no active public market for our common stock, and there can be no assurance that an active public market will develop or be sustained; Lack of Dividends.
Our common stock has been traded on the OTC Bulletin Board since prior to the acquisition of GeneMax Pharmaceuticals. Both before and since the acquisition, trading in our common stock has been sporadic with insignificant volume. Moreover, the over-the-counter markets for securities of very small companies historically have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These broad market fluctuations and other factors, such as new product developments, trends in our industry, the investment markets, economic conditions generally, and variation in our results of operations, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In addition, our common stock is subject to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulating broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Such rules require the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and all associated risks and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain investors. For these types of transactions the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in securities subject to the penny stock rules. We do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Significant fluctuations in out stock price may have a material adverse effect upon our shareholders.
We are controlled by management.
As of June 30, 2005, our officers and directors owned of record approximately 2,770,465 or 9.50% of the outstanding shares of common stock. If they exercise all of the options that they currently hold, they would own 5,820,465, shares of our common stock or 18.06% of the outstanding shares of common stock. Due to their stock ownership, the officers and directors may be in a position to elect the Board of Directors and to control our business and affairs, including certain significant corporate actions such as acquisitions, the sale or purchase of assets and the issuance and sale of the company’s securities. The interest of our officers and directors may differ from the interests of other shareholders.
As of June 30, 2005, we had reserved 10,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance upon exercise of options which have been or may be granted pursuant to our stock option plans, of which options to purchase 4,680,000 shares were outstanding as of June 30, 2005. Additionally, as of June 30, 2005, there were 6,923,868 warrants outstanding to purchase our common stock. Sales of common stock underlying these stock options and warrants would have a significant dilutive effect upon our current shareholders and may adversely affect the price of the common stock.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
     Statements made in this Form 10-QSB that are not historical or current facts are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. The company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for such

- 19 -


Table of Contents

statements. The company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond the control of the company that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. The company disclaims any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
The company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) are communicated, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. At the end of the company’s second quarter of 2005, as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date. No changes in internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with its evaluation (as required by Rules 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the second quarter of 2005 that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting other than the addition of additional accounting staff.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On September 8, 2004 the company filed suit in the District Court, City and County of Denver, Colorado, against X-Clearing Corporation, its transfer agent, referred to herein as X-Clearing. We alleged that X-Clearing was in breach of our October 2, 2001 transfer agent agreement (as amended September 21, 2004) with X-Clearing and asked for a declaratory judgment and to have certain records and documents returned to us so that we could pursue a transfer agency relationship with another transfer agent. Securing a new transfer agent is an important step in obtaining a listing of our shares on the TSX Venture Exchange.
At a hearing held on September 22, 2004 X-Clearing argued that the transfer agency agreement had not been properly terminated, and the court made a preliminary determination consistent with X-Clearing’s position. Subsequent to the September 22, 2004 hearing the company actively sought a settlement with X-Clearing, however it was unable to do so.
In March 2005 both X-Clearing and the company filed additional court documentation in respect of the matter and a hearing was set for March 18, 2005. Immediately prior to the hearing a settlement was negotiated whereby the company agreed to pay $200,000 to X-Clearing in exchange for all of its corporate records. The parties also exchanged various indemnity agreements. As at the date of this filing, the parties entered into a settlement agreement and completed a settlement.
