PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS Organization Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "Registrant", "Nu-Tech" or the "Company") was originally organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in September 1981 under the name "Applied DNA Systems, Inc.". On November 16, 1994, the Company changed its name to its present name. The Company's wholly owned operating subsidiary, Analytical Biosystems Corp. ("ABC") was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in August, 1985. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the Company include ABC. The Company maintains its principal executive and administrative offices, and clinical laboratory and research facilities at 55 Access Road, Warwick, Rhode Island 02886, and its telephone number is (401) 732-6520, fax number (401) 738-9160. The Company also maintains additional executive offices at 500 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10036, telephone number (212) 391-2424, fax number (212) 391-2864. Principal Business of the Company The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Analytical Biosystems Corporation ("ABC"), is a clinical oncology laboratory service and research company which currently performs and furnishes a patented in vitro chemosensitivity assay known as the Fluorescent Cytoprint Assay ("FCA") which aids oncologists in selecting those chemotherapeutic drugs most likely to be effective in treating a cancer patient's solid mass tumor. The FCA, which was developed by M. Boris Rotman, Ph.D., Professor of Medical Science at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, is a patented laboratory procedure that measures the effectiveness of specific chemotherapy drugs in destroying cancer cells retrieved from solid mass tumors removed from individual patients. The FCA tests cancer tissue taken from the individual's tumor against many of the chemotherapeutic agents likely to be used for that tumor type. Information provided by the test helps rule out ineffective drugs and assists the oncologists in determining appropriate chemotherapy. The Company's potential customers are surgeons, oncologists, pathologists, cancer patients, hospitals, health maintenance organizations ("HMOs"), community cancer centers, and third party insurance companies. See hereafter "Business - The Clinical Oncology Laboratory Services of the Company." 2

GENERAL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS WITHIN MOST RECENT FISCAL YEAR Completion of Private Placements On April 27, 1995, the Company, in a private transaction effected with eight investors, sold an aggregate of 120,000 shares of Common Stock and an aggregate of 45,714 Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the "Warrants") for an aggregate of $722,285.70. The Warrants are exercisable at $7.00 per share through July 31, 2001, and the Warrantholders were accorded certain piggyback registration rights. The proceeds received by the Company as a result of the aforesaid transaction were used for additional working capital purposes. On July 14, 1995, the Company, in a private transaction effected with seven investors, sold an aggregate of 93,335 shares of Common Stock and an aggregate of 35,408 Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the "Warrants") for an aggregate of $561,780.40. The Warrants are exercisable at $7.00 per share through July 31, 2001, and the Warrantholders were accorded certain piggyback registration rights. The proceeds received by the Company as a result of the aforesaid transaction were to make available to the Company additional working capital. Imaging Systems Agreement On April 20, 1995, ABC entered into an Agreement with Loats Associates, Inc. ("Loats") pursuant to which Loats was engaged for the purpose of evaluating, redesigning, configuring, assembling and installing a new and improved version of the image system currently utilized by ABC in connection with the quantitative evaluation of assays performed utilizing the Company's patented Fluorescent Cytoprint Assay ("FCA"). Loats was engaged by ABC to perform and complete the project on a work-for-hire basis. The project was completed in December, 1995. See "Business - ABC Image System" Clinical Trials Agreement On August 14, 1995, ABC entered into an agreement (the "Clinical Trials Agreement") with a research institution (the "Institution") and certain individuals (the "Principal Investigators"). The Clinical Trials Agreement relates to the conduct and performance of certain proprietary research and development activities to be performed and/or coordinated on a work for hire basis on behalf of ABC by the Institution. The protocol for which the clinical trials are to be conducted is entitled "A Randomized Trial Comparing Empiric Therapy Versus Chemotherapy Directed by In Vitro Sensitivity Testing in Patients with Carcinoma of Unknown Primary Site". The conduct of the clinical trials is under the exclusive direction and control of the Institution and the 3
10KSB4th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 4th
Principal Investigators, who will coordinate the protocol with participating physicians, manage the project, collect and correlate data and provide ABC with a final report of the study in form and content generally accepted by medical and scientific publications and journals. The Principal Investigators are to direct the study in accordance with applicable Institution policies and are in accordance with generally accepted standards of good clinical practice, and all applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations governing the performance of clinical investigations. The total approximate cost to ABC is not to exceed $568,000. ABC may terminate the Clinical Trials Agreement with the Institution at any time, in which case it is responsible for a payment to the Institution on the basis of the number of patients evaluated through the date of termination. The clinical trials being conducted are non-mandatory and are part of the Company's objective of obtaining correlated data with respect to evaluated patients with respect to whom treatment has been determined with the aid of the FCA. The cost of the funding of such clinical trials was an anticipated use of proceeds received from the Company's December 20, 1994 public offering. The clinical trials commenced in October, 1995. Pending Acquisitions; Letters of Intent On December 6, 1995, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent with Infotechnology, Inc. ("Infotech"), Advanced Corporate Services, Inc. ("Advanced"), Questech Capital, Corp. ("Questech") and American Cytogenetics, Inc. ("ACI") pursuant to which the Company, subject to the completion of a formal agreement, will acquire from Infotech, Advanced and Questech all of the Common and Preferred Shares owned by each of them in ACI representing approximately 53.9% of all of ACI's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and approximately 59.9% of all of ACI's issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company will acquire, directly from ACI, an additional number of shares of Common Stock which, when added to the shares to be acquired from Infotech, Advanced and Questech, will total approximately 80% of all of ACI's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Infotech, Questech and Advanced are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Control Shareholders", the Common Shares to be acquired from the Control Shareholders are sometimes referred to herein as the "Control Common Shares", the shares of Preferred Stock to be acquired from the Control Shareholders are sometimes referred to herein as the "Control Preferred Shares", and the Common Shares to be acquired directly from ACI are sometimes referred to herein as the "Direct Purchase Shares". The anticipated purchase price to be paid to the Control Shareholders is an aggregate of $784,200, of which $237,825 is to be paid in cash to Infotech, $59,529 is to be paid in cash to Advanced, and $486,204 is to be paid to Questech by the delivery of 51,179 restricted shares of the Company. In addition, the Company is to deliver to Questech a 5-Year Warrant to purchase 15,000 shares of 4
10KSB5th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th
the Company Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the average of the high offer and low bid price for the Company's Common Stock for the 30 days immediately succeeding the date of the Letter of Intent. The final number of shares to be delivered to Questech shall be based on 68% of the average bid and asked price for the Company's Common Stock for the 30 days following the date of the Letter of Intent. The number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased directly by the Company from ACI at the closing will be for an aggregate purchase price of $300,000. The transaction was originally anticipated to be completed on or before January 31, 1996, but is now contemplated to be completed in the second quarter of 1996 and is subject to, among other things, the approval of the transaction by the respective Boards of each of the entities, the execution of a mutually acceptable definitive agreement, and the attainment of all necessary approvals relating thereto. ACI owns and operates a licensed clinical laboratory located in North Hollywood, California and is engaged in the business of providing disease-specific laboratory testing services principally in the areas of cervical cancer and certain sexually transmitted diseases. The principal laboratory test conducted by ACI is the test commonly known as the "pap smear". It is believed that ACI processes in excess of 400,000 pap tests per year and is one of the largest laboratories of its type in the country. With the completion of the transaction, the Company will be the largest shareholder of ACI and ACI will be a majority owned subsidiary of the Company. The Clinical Oncology Laboratory Services of the Company The Company is a clinical oncology laboratory service and research company which principally performs a patented in vitro chemosensitivity assay known as the FCA. The FCA, which was developed by M. Boris Rotman, Ph.D., Professor of Medical Science at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, measures the effectiveness of specific chemotherapy drugs in destroying cancer cells retrieved from solid mass tumors removed from individual patients. The FCA tests cancer tissue taken from the individual's tumor against many of the chemotherapeutic agents likely to be used for that tumor type. Information provided by the test helps rule out ineffective drugs and assists the oncologists in determining the most appropriate chemotherapy. The Company also offers an ATP Cell Viability Assay ("ATPCVA") which is a bioluminescent assay utilized for the determination of inhibition of metabolic activity in cancer cells. It is the Company's intention to use the non-proprietary ATP-CVA in conjunction with the Company's FCA for the purpose of expanding the number of chemotherapeutic drugs which the Company can offer for in vitro response testing. The Company's FCA will be principally used for the assay of those chemotherapeutic drugs which have the effect of bursting or killing cancer cells. With respect to other 5
10KSB6th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 6th
chemotherapeutic drugs which work in a different fashion, the ATPCVA will detect the inhibition of metabolic activity. One of the latter drugs to work in this fashion is taxol, which has been approved by the Food & Drug Administration for the use in the treatment of breast, lung and ovarian cancer and will be assayed by the Company utilizing the ATP-CVA assay. In addition, the Company has added to the chemotherapeutic drugs which it is capable to assay, navelbine, which is currently used in the treatment of nonsmall cell lung cancer and whose effect is to burst or kill the cancer cells. This drug is being assayed by the Company utilizing the FCA. BACKGROUND Chemotherapy is a broad term used to describe the use of cytotoxic drugs in the treatment of cancer. In treating cancer patients with solid mass tumors, medical oncologists can currently choose from approximately 50 anticancer agents approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. Generally, medical oncologists administer chemotherapy drugs without knowing whether the individual cancer patient's tumor is sensitive to the drugs being utilized. This is primarily due to the fact that cancer is an individual disease, with each patient having a unique combination of age, sex, health, tumor characteristics and chemosensitivity. When the use of chemotherapy is indicated for a cancer patient, a choice is made by the treating physician based in part on historical data and published protocols indicating the chemotherapy drugs most likely to be effective for specific solid mass tumor types without prior testing of the drug selected on a patient's tumor. However, current forms of chemotherapy are only statistically effective (as measured by reduction of tumor size or relative extension of life expectancy) to the patient on an average of 40% of the time. Chemosensitivity testing of a patient's tumor prior to the initiation of chemotherapy has therefore been a longstanding goal of many research scientists. The Company's FCA is a laboratory testing procedure which, using a patented technique and proprietary information, tests cancer tissue taken from an individual's tumor against many of the chemotherapeutic agents likely to be used for that tumor type (in varying combinations and concentrations). The FCA provides information to help the doctor rule out ineffective drugs, and identifies for the doctor those drugs that appear to be most effective, thereby giving the patient a better chance of success with the appropriate chemotherapy. Further, a reliable, predictable assay for chemotherapy can reduce the occurrence of induced resistance of a patient's cancer to chemotherapeutic drugs. Extensive clinical data has indicated that if a patient receives the "wrong" drug initially, the chances of responding to the "right" drug are significantly reduced. A further salutary benefit of enhancing the ability to initially select a chemotherapeutic regimen having maximum efficacy 6
10KSB7th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 7th
is health care cost containment. The cost of treating a cancer patient with chemotherapy is substantial. Further costs are added to the health care system when initial chemotherapy is ineffective. These additional costs include second-line chemotherapy, radiation therapy, laboratory and radiology studies, hospitalization and supportive care. These factors, among others, have highlighted the need to measure the clinical utility of therapies relative to their costs. The National Cancer Institute has estimated overall costs for cancer at $104 billion for 1990 (the most recent published data available). The Company believes that the use of the FCA as a tool in selecting an effective course of chemotherapeutic treatment could result in a significant benefit to third-party payors (such as insurance companies and health maintenance organizations) in their efforts to contain health care costs. THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMPANY'S FCA Since the 1950's, scientists and researchers have attempted to culture tumor cells in vitro (outside of the body) and to test their response to various chemotherapeutic agents. A number of clonogenic and non-clonogenic assays using single cells derived from tumors were proposed to predict chemosensitivity in cancer patients. In a clonogenic assay only stem cells (cells that can form clones) are utilized. In a non-clonogenic assay all the different types of the cells of the tumor are utilized. Although single cell based assays are generally effective in determining whether a tumor will be resistant to a particular chemotherapy (i.e. negative predictive), they cannot predict whether a chemotherapy could be successful in treating the tumor (i.e. positive predictive). M. Boris Rotman, Ph.D., Professor of Medical Science at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, developed a micro-organ culture system which is a patented portion of the Company's FCA. The FCA, based on technology that has little in common with single-cell assays, maintains tumor fragments (microorgans) in miniaturized organ cultures while they are tested for responsiveness to therapeutic agents. This method permits assessment of tumor cultures in a manner more closely approximating the in vivo (in the body) state. Dr. Rotman, in developing the FCA, arrived at a method of preserving the architectural integrity of the tumor as well as intercellular contacts so that a representative sample of the entire tumor cell population can be tested. As a result, unlike other assays currently being marketed which are only utilized to predict a patient's resistance to particular drugs, the FCA is able to enhance the ability of the physician to assess whether a drug will be successful in treating the tumor. The Company believes that its FCA represents an advance over single cell assays. Single cell assays produce cultures of individual, single cells taken from a tumor, which do not resemble the original tissue taken from the patient. Another of the advantages of the FCA is the higher evaluability rate (i.e., the ability to perform the assay on a specimen) as compared to other 7
10KSB8th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 8th
assays. The FCA, by utilizing clusters of cells which are able to be cultured in vitro, can achieve an evaluability rate in excess of 90% of tumors tested. The Company believes the FCA evaluability rate significantly exceeds the rate for other non-clonogenic and clonogenic assays. Unlike single cell assays, which measure the ability of the chemotherapeutic agent to inhibit rapid cell division -- growth that may not be duplicated in vivo (in the body) -- the FCA measures the actual ability of a drug to destroy cancerous tissue. In addition, clonogenic assays typically take several weeks to produce results -- an obvious problem when time is critical for the patient. The FCA circumvents these shortcomings and allows results to be determined within 10 days. THE FCA TECHNOLOGY The Company's FCA is founded upon two essential concepts: (1) the use of fluorochromasia, a process which permits visual assessment of the effect of chemotherapy on cancer cells without destroying the clusters of cells; and (2) the isolation of microorgans of tumor tissue, which retain the three-dimensional architecture of cancer cells as they exist in the patient. The process of fluorochromasia was initially described in 1966 in a scientific paper co-authored by Dr. M. Boris Rotman and Dr. Benjamin W. Papermaster, who found that a chemical, fluorescein acetate, passes through the membranes of living cells. Once inside the cell, enzymes cleave the fluorescein acetate and release free fluorescein. The free fluorescein is retained in the living cell for up to two hours. When illuminated under blue light, living cells, which retain the free fluorescein, are visible, while dead cells, which do not retain the dye, are not. This technique allows for the visual assessment of cell death. Fluorochromasia, therefore, can be used to determine when living cells have been killed by a chemotherapeutic agent. In order to utilize fluorochromasia, however, it was necessary for Dr. Rotman to devise a method that would produce samples of cancerous tissue suitable for laboratory testing. The second phenomena he observed was that by shaking small pieces of human tumor, in the presence of a mild enzyme solution, clusters of malignant cells could be separated from non-cancerous connective tissue. Many of the natural adhesions between the tumor cells are not disrupted by this procedure. As a result, greater than 90% of the tumors survived and could be tested. This patented laboratory method for micro-organ preparation results in clusters of 50 to 500 cells composed almost entirely of viable tumor cells, preserving the structure and function of the original tumor. The samples of tumor, called "micro-organs," when maintained in special cultures, will maintain themselves while preserving the actual three dimensional architecture of the tumor. 8
10KSB9th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th
The high assay evaluability rate and the clinical correlation are due primarily to the fact that the tumor architecture is retained through the process. The FCA technology is applicable to all solid mass tumors. Solid mass tumors comprise between 80 and 90 percent of all new cancer cases. The remainder are hematological malignancies such as leukemia that do not form solid masses. Since 1986, the Company has performed over 4,176 assays from over 250 different hospitals and physicians. The Company has correlated data, both retrospective and prospective, from 365 case studies collected from institutions such as Roswell Park Memorial Institute, Hoag Cancer Center, and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, as well as data from other physicians using the assay to treat their patients. To date, the overall experience of the Company is that the FCA has been 92% accurate in predicting resistance and 76% accurate in predicting sensitivity (whether a drug will be effective in destroying cancer cells). See "Business - Market Information" for further information regarding future prospective clinical trials. The following table details the types of tumors assayed by the Company from 1986 through December 31, 1995: ˇ Download Table Gynecological 818 Breast 680 Gastroenterological 595 Pulmonary 372 Head and Neck 315 Sarcoma (all types) 267 Neurological 205 Melanoma 178 Genitourinary Tract 157 Lymphoma 148 Unknown Primary 151 Miscellaneous Other 290 ----- Total 4,176 ===== THE ASSAY PROCEDURE Freshly excised tumor specimens are transported to the Company's laboratory in a cold culture medium (below 10 (degree)C) and processed within 48 hours of surgery. The patient's doctor advises the Company which chemotherapeutic agents to test. A 500-mg biopsy specimen is sufficient to test 10 drugs at different levels of concentration. Partial digestion of minced viable tumor tissue in a mild enzyme solution liberates micro-organs consisting of viable malignant cells. The fluorescein monoacetate easily penetrates the lipid bi-layer of the cell membrane. Once within the cell, the fluorescent monoacetate transforms to fluorescein which, if the cell membrane is intact and the cell is viable, accumulates for a 9
10KSB10th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
short time within the cell rendering it strongly fluorescent when viewed in a light source that excites fluorescein. On the other hand, a dead or dying cell's membrane is "leaky" and permeable to fluorescein, which therefore does not accumulate. Since accumulated fluorescein does diffuse slowly (in about two hours) out of viable cells and brief exposure to fluorescein is not cytostatic or cytotoxic, cell viability testing can be repeated several times during the course of the assay in the same culture. The micro-organs are immobilized in collagen-impregnated cellulose and placed on the culture plate. The pattern ("cytoprint") of fluorescent micro-organs is recorded by computer imaging. After a 24-hour incubation, anti-cancer drugs are added to the culture, which is then incubated for an additional 48 hours. The culture medium is then replaced by a drug-free medium; after a further 96 hours of incubation, tumor kill (by inference) is assessed by repeating the fluorescent cytoprint procedure. Accordingly, results are generally available from seven-ten days after receipt of the tumor specimen. Drug induced cytotoxicity in these micro-organs is assessed by comparing computer processed images of fluorescent cytoprints taken before and after drug treatment. The disappearance of fluorescent micro-organs from the cytoprint of the drug-treated culture, as compared to the cytoprint of the initial culture, is used to assess drug toxicity. Thus, each culture acts as its own baseline. The following are the chemotherapy drugs presently available for testing: Actinomycin D Doxorubicin Mitoxantrone Bleomycin Etoposide (VP 16) Navelbine Carboplatin 5-Fluorouracil Streptozocin Carmustine FUDR ThioTEPA Cisplatin Lomustine Taxol Cyclophosphamide(Analog) Melphalan Vinblastine Mitomycin C Vincristine While there are approximately 50 anti-cancer agents for solid tumors, the above drugs constitute the predominate agents currently utilized in chemotherapy treatment for solid mass tumors. IMAGE PROCESSING AND MANAGEMENT FOR THE FCA As reported above under the heading "Recent Developments", the Company entered into an agreement with Loats Associates who was engaged for the purpose of evaluating, redesigning, configuring, assembling and installing a new and improved version of the imaging system currently utilized by ABC in connection with the quantitative evaluation of assays performed utilizing the FCA. The project was completed by Loats Associates in December, 1995. The Company's goal, which was accomplished by Loats Associates, was to implement an automated system which would provide stable, 10
10KSB11th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
reproducible evaluation of FCA fluorescent cytoprint images and generate hard copy reports of chemosensitivity results for transmission to physicians. The improved version of the imaging system also allows the transference of data to and from front office functions such as order entry, receiving and billing, and provides the Company with the capability for data-basing patient outcome results. The system's enhanced software applications provide the Company with the capability to: (i) identify and warn the technicians of possible outcome failures; (ii) normalize quantitive measures; (iii) record fluorescence changes in micro-organ images during the assay procedure and to correct such changes; and (iv) assess the percent cell kill as a measure of chemosensitivity. The new system consists of a video image acquisition system, a robotic specimen plate delivery mechanism and software to analyze and evaluate the video images of the FCA micro-organ cultures, calculate chemosensitivity results, control the specimen plate delivery robot and track and database data related to the entire FCA procedure. The proprietary software allows the Company to verify and document proper and repeatable operation of video image acquisition equipment according to required laboratory protocols relating to the verification of accuracy, linearity and repeatability. Management believes that the upgraded imaging, which allows for computerized quantification of the Company's FCA, has eliminated human judgment from the interpretation of the assay results. This substantially improves the validity of the FCA procedure and streamlines the process. PATENTS Integral to the Company's business is its FCA. The United States Patent Office has granted ABC three patents covering the FCA, the methodology of the cell culturing and related apparatus. The Company has also been granted European patents covering this technology in the designated states of France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom. In Canada, one patent has been granted on the "Methods for Separating" in the FCA. ABC also has been granted two patents, one for "Cytotoxicity Assays in Cell Culturing Devices" and one for "Cell Culturing Methods and Apparatus" in Japan. A Japanese patent application for "Methods of Separating" is still pending. The following summarizes the status of the Company's granted patents and pending patent applications: 11

The Company's success will depend in part on its ability to defend its patents, maintain trade secrets and operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others, both in the United States and in foreign countries. In addition, there can be no assurance that any patents issued to the Company will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will afford the Company protection from competitive products or processes. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will have the financial or other resources necessary to enforce or defend a patent infringement or proprietary rights violation action. The Company is not aware of any objection or challenge to its patents or of any asserted claim of patent infringement. The Company also relies on certain proprietary trade secrets and know-how, which are not patentable, and on certain ancillary technologies which are not patentable or proprietary and are therefore available to the Company's competitors. Although the Company has taken steps to protect its unpatented trade secrets and know-how, in part through the use of confidentiality agreements with substantially all of its employees, there can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that the Company would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that the Company's trade secrets will not otherwise become known or be independently developed or discovered by competitors. The ability of the Company to obtain patents and similar rights and the nature, extent and enforceability of the intellectual property rights that may be obtained as a result of the Company's research efforts involve complex legal and factual concerns. Discoveries made or developed by the Company may not qualify for patents or, if qualified, may be subject to challenge or to protracted proceedings. In addition, other public or private concerns, including universities, may hold or have filed patent applications and may have been issued patents on inventions, or otherwise possess proprietary rights to technology which may be necessary to commercially implement the Company's technology. With respect to future developments, the Company may be required to license other patents or proprietary rights, and the cost and availability of such licenses, are presently unknown. While the Company has not conducted an infringement study with respect to any of its patents or proprietary technology, the Company is not aware of the need to obtain a license from any other party in order to practice its existing technology. There can be no assurances that others may not independently develop similar technology or otherwise obtain access to the Company's know-how. GOVERNMENT REGULATION; LICENSES ABC and its principal product, the FCA, is subject to regulation by a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Care Finance Administration ("HCFA") under the Clinical Laboratories Improvement Act of 1988 ("CLIA"). These 13
10KSB14th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
regulations mandate that all clinical laboratories be certified to perform testing on human specimens and provide specific conditions for certification. These regulations also contain guidelines for the qualification, responsibilities, training, working conditions and oversight of clinical laboratory employees. In addition, specific standards are imposed for each type of test which is performed in a laboratory. CLIA and the regulations promulgated thereunder are enforced through continuous quality inspections of test methods, equipment, instrumentation, materials and supplies on a biennial and "spot" basis; the most recent of which occurred on December 21, 1994. Any change in CLIA or these regulations or in the interpretation thereof could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. To its knowledge, the Company is in compliance with the currently applicable regulations of HCFA. At the present time, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") does not regulate the FCA. ABC holds a clinical laboratory license from the State of Rhode Island and a federal laboratory registration certificate to permit the interstate shipment of tumors and billing. The Company also holds a wastewater discharge permit from the Warwick, Rhode Island Sewer Authority. PROFESSIONAL AND PRODUCT LIABILITY As a clinical laboratory performing assay services, the Company may be subject to professional and/or product claims. While no claims or actions have been asserted against or instituted to date arising out of the performance by the Company of any assay, any such actions in the future may subject the Company to liability for damages and significant costs associated with the defense of such action or claim. The Company presently maintains professional liability insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 as well as product liability insurance in the amount of $1,000,000. There can be no assurance, however, that this coverage will be adequate to protect the Company against future claims or that insurance will be available to the Company in the future on acceptable terms, if at all, or that a liability or other claim would not materially and adversely affect the business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations of the Company. The Company intends, however, if feasible, to increase the amount of such insurance coverage to such greater amount as management, in its discretion, may determine having due regard to the cost of such insurance coverage. MARKET INFORMATION The Company's potential customers are surgeons, oncologists, pathologists, cancer patients, hospitals, health maintenance organizations ("HMOs"), community cancer centers, and third party insurance companies. The Company had attempted only limited marketing of the FCA. The commercial success of the Company is 14
10KSB15th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 15th
materially dependent upon the ability of the Company to educate the medical community generally, and oncologists, surgeons, hospitals and HMOs in particular, of the benefits and applications of the Company's assay, and to distinguish the Company's technology from existing technology in the field and assays marketed by others. The process of educating the physician regarding the use and benefits of a new technology such as the FCA is, in the Company's opinion, difficult. The success of such education and marketing efforts will be materially dependent upon the ability of the Company to attract and assemble a national medical service sales force through which the Company's assay will be marketed. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to successfully recruit experienced sales personnel or successfully implement its proposed sales and marketing programs. As part of the Company's research and development and to enhance the ability of the Company to proceed with its intended sales and marketing of the FCA and related clinical laboratory services, the Company has developed protocols to conduct new randomized prospective clinical trials. While the clinical trials which the Company is in the initial stages of conducting are not required as a condition to use or market the FCA, the Company believes that the results will have a material effect upon the acceptance of the Company's assay and the ultimate success of the Company's business, in that such results would, if they demonstrate the efficacy of the FCA, be an added sales and marketing tool. In the United States, there are over 16,000 physicians who treat cancer patients. This group of physicians are broken down into the following categories: approximately 5,100 medical oncologists and 1,300 surgical oncologists who treat most general cancers; 300 gynecologic oncologists who treat advanced cases of cervical and endometrial cancer and most ovarian cancers; and 9,500 urologists who treat prostate, bladder and testicular malignancies. This does not include the over 20,000 general surgeons who treat cancer patients by removing tumors in surgery. (Sources: American Medical Association and the Society of Surgical Oncology). Currently, there are approximately 5,300 community hospitals (exclusive of federal, respiratory, psychiatric or long-term care institutions). Of this number, approximately 1,300 hospitals have cancer programs approved by the American College of Surgeons. These hospitals are one of the focuses of the Company's clinical services business. The Company's services are provided to oncologists, surgeons and hospital pathologists who submit their patients' tumor specimen to the Company for testing. According to statistical information published by the American Cancer Society, over 1.1 million new cancer patients will be diagnosed each year. Of these 1.1 million cancer patients, approximately 80% (880,000) will have solid tumors. A portion of those patients (estimated by the Company based upon published literature to be approximately 25%) will be treated with chemotherapy, and are therefore candidates for the FCA. In 15
10KSB16th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 16th
addition, over 2.2 million patients previously diagnosed with solid tumor cancers whose first line chemotherapy treatment has been ineffective or who have experienced a relapse are also candidates for the FCA. Although the Company has collected a substantial amount of clinical data which supports the efficacy of the FCA (see "Business -- The FCA Technology"), in order to enhance the ability of the Company to maximize its intended commercialization of the FCA, the Company believes that additional non-mandatory prospective clinical trials should be performed. The trials will address both issues of medical efficacy as well as cost-savings benefit. The Company plans to incorporate further cost-effective studies into its current clinical trials concerning medical efficacy. The Company cannot predict when the results of these new trials will be available, nor can there be any assurance that the results of such trials will provide data which further supports the FCA. The Company currently bills individual patients, hospitals and insurance companies for assay services. To date, collections have been largely dependent upon the eligibility of such charges for third party reimbursement. Accordingly, the Company believes that its ability to successfully market the FCA in large part will depend upon its ability to have the FCA approved for reimbursement by third-party payors. Reimbursement approval will depend in part upon acceptance of the FCA and its acceptance as a vehicle to ultimately contain health care costs by eliminating ineffective chemotherapy. Reimbursement for diagnostic tests is typically determined by reference to whether such tests are generally accepted as standard medical practice by each third party payor, how the charges for such tests compare to charges for established tests for similar indications, and whether the charges are within the range of usual and customary services. Such determinations are independently made by each third party payor. Third party payors also consider whether a test will further the general objective of health care cost containment and enhance the potential for the reduction of treatment costs. To date, approximately 330 insurance companies (including HMOs) have reimbursed for the test. Of this number, approximately 30 have routinely reimbursed for the FCA. The remainder have reimbursed on a case-by-case review basis. In addition, the FCA is currently not eligible for reimbursement by Medicare/Medicaid. Although the Company's FCA, as well as other human tumor cell in vitro chemosensitivity assays, have been accepted for reimbursement by Blue Cross/Blue Shield of the State of California, Blue Cross of Tennessee, Blue Cross of Ohio and Blue Cross of Cleveland, the Company is not aware of the acceptance for reimbursement of chemosensitivity assays by individual Blue Cross/Blue Shield organizations in other states. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain reimbursement approval on a routine basis from enough additional third party payors so as to have a significant impact on the marketing of the FCA. In the absence of third party reimbursement, the Company will be dependent upon direct patient payment. Such dependence may 16
10KSB17th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 17th
affect the amount and collectability of receivables. The Company anticipates seeking routine reimbursement for its FCA from third party payors including Medicare/Medicaid and independent Blue Cross/Blue Shield organizations. The Company is unable to predict when and if such approval will be obtained. The determination for eligibility of Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement for the independent billing of the FCA (as well as any other medical procedure or test) is made by HCFA. In April of 1991, the Company was informed by HCFA that Medicare has not provided coverage for human tumor stem cell drug sensitivity assays. The Company had been advised that this coverage decision had been made by HCFA based upon advice received by HCFA prior to April 1991 from the United States Public Health Service that human tumor drug sensitivity assays were considered experimental. The Company, in October 1994, met with representatives of HCFA and presented scientific data and information for use by HCFA in support of the Company's request to reconsider or modify its previously issued health coverage decision. No assurance may be given as to if or when HCFA will act upon the information submitted to it, or whether any further data, information or presentations will be required of the Company. The Company does not believe that it is feasible for it to make any prediction as to the time within which the entire process of review within HCFA may be completed. HMOs and Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs) are becoming strong competitors to the larger traditional insurers and are viewed by the Company as playing a central role in the Company's long term marketing plans. They are perceived to be the growth segment of the service part of the health care system. The HMOs and PPOs are having a significant effect on the health care market, due to their ability to control costs. The FCA is viewed by the Company as a valuable tool in assisting these health care organizations in containing their cancer treatment costs by eliminating ineffective expensive chemotherapy. To date, there is no agreement between the Company and any HMOs or PPOs. SALES AND MARKETING The Company is of the belief that its commercial success is materially dependent upon its ability to educate the medical community generally, and oncologists, surgeons, hospitals and HMOs in particular, of the benefits and applications of the Company's assay, and to distinguish the Company's technology from existing technology in the field and assays marketed by others. The process of convincing a physician to use a new testing service is difficult and, in the Company's view, requires a highly trained sales force to call on and educate the physician regarding the use and benefits of the new technology. In addition, management believes that physicians require actual experience with such new tests before accepting and adopting them into their practice. 17

POTENTIAL IMPACT OF PENDING HEALTH CARE REFORM Numerous proposals to amend the Medicaid/Medicare Systems are under consideration in the United States Congress, including mandated basic health care benefits, controls on health care spending, price controls, the creation of large insurance purchasing groups and fundamental changes in the health care delivery system. In addition, several states have passed and implemented, or are considering, various health care reform proposals. Although the Company believes its FCA to be cost-effective in overall chemotherapy treatment, changes in the level of support by federal and state governments of health care services, the methods by which such services may be delivered and the prices for such services may all have a materially adverse impact on the Company's ability to achieve and sustain a profit. Health care reform could also reduce the profitability of certain medical institutions and, in turn, adversely impact the fees the Company is able to charge for its laboratory services. The Company cannot predict which, if any, health care reform plan might be adopted or, if adopted, the effect on the Company's business. COMPETITION At the present time, there are several companies which commercially market chemosensitivity assays. The Company believes that it is the only company currently marketing a patented chemosensitivity assay in the United States. The Company believes that it competes based upon its patented technology, the high evaluability rate (i.e. the ability to successfully test the tumor) for most types of human solid tumors, and the positive and negative predictive accuracy of the Company's FCA assay. There can be no assurance that the Company's competitors will not succeed in developing technologies and services that are more accurate and effective than the Company's FCA or any other assay which may be developed by the Company or that would render the Company's technology and services obsolete or noncompetitive. In addition, in the event of the future development and approval of chemotherapeutic drugs which are not capable of being assayed by the FCA and such drugs become commonly used, such event may materially affect the ability of the Company to market the FCA. In addition, there are many public and private companies, including several well-known pharmaceutical companies and specialized biotechnology companies, universities and research centers, engaged in developing therapeutic and diagnostic products for the treatment of cancer. Many of the Company's competitors have substantially greater financial and technological resources than the Company, and have significantly greater experience in sales and marketing and research and development. Such companies may be more successful in developing alternate methods to predict the effectiveness or non-effectiveness of chemotherapeutic drugs on an individual cancer patient. 18

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The research, development and patenting of the FCA has been completed. The Company is currently pursuing its technical efforts mainly on non-mandatory clinical studies. Additionally, the Company continues to refine its testing process to prepare for full scale commercialization of the Company's laboratory as well as to permit use of the FCA to test any new FDA approved drugs. Research and development activities are conducted by the Company's regular full-time employees as part of their principal employment functions. It is impractical for the Company to attempt to quantify or separately segregate the amount of time and overhead attributable to research and development activities from all other activities; particularly since existing laboratory and scientific activities associated with the FCA benefit the Company from a general research and development point of view. For the year ended December 31, 1995 the Company expended approximately $77,000 for specifically identifiable research and development activities. NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT In December of 1990, the Company commenced the development of the RMCE, which utilizes technology protected by the Company's current patents. This project is intended to evaluate the effectiveness of combined chemotherapy and radiation treatment using the FCA technology in conjunction with irradiation of the tumor specimen. The research project is based on the in vivo observation that some cytotoxic drugs are potentiators (i.e. enhance effectiveness) of radiation treatment. Dr. Rotman and Brown University completed, in May 1993, a project funded by both RIPSAT and the Company, involving preliminary studies on colon tumors. If the Company successfully concludes research and development on the RMCE, the Company expects to add this process as an additional laboratory service. The Company projects that commercialization of the RMCE will not be ready for several years. Combination therapy using radiation and chemotherapy together is a new and emerging method of cancer treatment. The research and development of the RMCE project was carried out under an agreement dated December 14, 1990 between the Company and RIPSAT under which Brown University was designated as the research facility. RIPSAT has reimbursed the Company approximately $320,000 for the project costs, representing 60% of the project costs; the remaining 40% of the project costs were borne by the Company through the contribution of assets or property. The funds advanced by RIPSAT were principally paid by the Company to Brown University. The Company remains indebted to Brown University in the amount of approximately $81,000 as of March 15, 1996. As part of its agreement with RIPSAT, the Company has agreed to maintain its facilities in the State of Rhode Island. In the event that the Company relocates outside of the State of Rhode 19
10KSB20th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 20th
Island, the amount of advances by RIPSAT become due and payable in one year from such relocation, together with interest at 2% above the prevailing prime rate of interest. The Company does not have the present intention to relocate its facilities outside of the State of Rhode Island. Under and pursuant to its agreement with RIPSAT, Brown University was designated as the research facility, and Dr. Rotman was the principal investigator. Brown University was to perform the research program in connection with the RMCE project, for which it was to be reimbursed for its costs, not to exceed $375,000. As of the date hereof, the research on the RMCE project has not been completed. Although the term of Brown University's engagement to perform research services expired on May 31, 1993 and has not been further renewed, it is the intention of the Company to continue such research at its own facility or through Brown University or other alternate research facilities. The Company projects that the development of this technology will be finished with the conclusion of clinical trials, but that commercialization of the RMCE will not be ready for several years. EMPLOYEES As of March 1, 1996, the Company had 10 employees, of which 7 were full-time employees, including its one executive officer, and 3 part time employees. None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union, and the Company considers its relationship with its employees to be good. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company maintains its offices and clinical laboratory in Warwick, Rhode Island. This facility is comprised of approximately 4,064 square feet of office and laboratory space. The present facilities are occupied under a lease for a term of two years commencing November 1, 1994 and terminating October 31, 1996, renewable at the Company's option for three additional one year periods. The base rent for this facility is $26,000 per annum. In addition to the base rent, the Company pays, as additional rent, its proportionate share of increases in real estate taxes on the premises, maintenance and utility charges. While its present facilities are adequate for its present needs and are sufficient to enable the Company to process approximately 900 assays per month, the Company does not view such premises to be adequate for its anticipated future needs in the event its planned marketing efforts are successful. In such case, the Company will require additional laboratory and administrative facilities. The Company believes that adequate facilities are readily available in the greater Providence, Rhode Island area at competitive rentals. A relocation of the Company's laboratory will require a re-licensing of the new facility as a clinical laboratory under CLIA and by the State of Rhode Island. The Company does not view the prospect of re-licensing a new facility as having to result in a material adverse effect on the Company, though there 20
10KSB21st Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 21st
may be some temporary interruption in the processing of assays unless the Company overlaps in relocating from one facility to another. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is not a party to any pending material legal proceedings. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. [BALANCE OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK] 21

PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS A. Principal Market On December 20, 1994, upon the Company's Registration Statement in connection with the public offering of shares of its Common Stock being declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Common Stock of the Company resumed trading on the SmallCap Market of The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol "NTBM". For the period October 17, 1992 to December 20, 1994, the Common Stock of the Company was traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "NTBM" (November 16, 1994 December 20, 1994), and under the symbol "ADNA" (October 17, 1992 - November 16, 1994) while the Company was known by its former name of Applied DNA Systems, Inc. Prior to October 17, 1992, the Common Stock of the Company had been traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market. On August 11, 1995, the Company's Common Stock was accepted for listing on the Boston Stock Exchange under the symbol "NTB". B. Market Information The following is the range of actual high bid and low asked prices for such Common Stock for the periods indicated. The high bid and low asked prices commencing with the fourth quarter of 1994 reflect a one-for-thirty-five (1:35) reverse split effected by the Company on November 16, 1994. Such prices have, for all periods through the third quarter of 1994, been reported by the National Quotation Bureau, and for all periods subsequent to the third quarter of 1994 have been reported by the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. ˇ Download Table Year High Bid Low Asked ---- -------- --------- 1994 1st Quarter .39 .28 2nd Quarter .26 .21 3rd Quarter .22 .21 4th Quarter 8.00 8 1/4 1995 1st Quarter 8 7/8 7 3/4 2nd Quarter 9 5/8 8 5/8 3rd Quarter 12 1/2 9 1/4 4th Quarter 14 7/8 12 1/2 The above quotations, reported by Nasdaq and the National Quotation Bureau, represent prices between dealers and do not include retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions.

periods indicated above, high bid and low asked prices were not expressed in fractions. C. Dividends The Company has never paid a dividend, whether cash or property, on its shares of Common Stock and has no present expectation of doing so in the foreseeable future. D. Approximated Number of Equity Security Holders The approximate number of record holders of the Company's Common Stock as of March 15, 1996 was 1,087. Such number of record owners was determined from the Company's shareholder records, and does not include beneficial owners of the Company's Common Stock whose shares are held in the names of various security holders, dealers and clearing agencies. The Company believes that the number of beneficial owners of its Common Stock held by others as or in nominee names exceeds 1,600 in number. ITEM. 6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Year Ended December 31, 1995, Compared with Year Ended December 31, 1994 Results of Operations Total revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 were $322,778 compared to $222,584 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994. The increase in total revenues is primarily due to the receipt by the Company of approximately $159,000 of interest income during 1995, which interest income was derived from the deposit of the proceeds of the Company's December 1994 public offering as well as private sales of securities completed in April and July 1995. Assay sales, net of billing adjustments, from the processing of ABC's assay, the Fluorescent Cytoprint Assay, were $161,701 and $157,973 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The amount of billing adjustments relating to assay sales during the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were approximately $22,156 and $76,932, respectively. Other revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 were $2,100 compared to $60,780 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994. Other revenues represent revenues from various pharmaceutical and drug development organizations to test new chemotherapy compounds using the FCA. Payments received are recorded as deferred income and are recognized as other revenue according to the percent or work completed. 23
10KSB24th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 24th
General and administrative expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 increased to $1,430,354 compared to $1,072,694 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994. The increase was principally due to an increase in the Company's use of consultants which resulted in greater consultant fees and expenses related to the Company's efforts to improve reimbursement for the FCA. Laboratory expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $186,405 and $175,865, respectively. The increase is due to general increases in the supplies, repairs and maintenance costs associated with the operation of the laboratory. Research and development expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 were $77,066. These expenses were incurred in connection with the reconfiguration of ABC's image system and the implementation of a laboratory procedure designed to complement the FCA. Depreciation expenses at December 31, 1995 equalled $659,424 compared to $291,728 at December 31, 1994. This increase was primarily due to the incurrance of $535,093 related to the grant of 100,000 restricted shares granted to J. Marvin Feigenbaum on June 8, 1995. See "Employment Agreements". Interest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $33,514 and $51,370, respectively. This decrease was due to the reduction of principal outstanding for loans from the Small Business Loan Fund Corporation. In addition, 7% Promissory Notes issued in the August 9, 1994 private placement were repaid on December 28, 1994. Rent expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 was $24,972 as compared to $24,448 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994. Net loss per share of Common Stock for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 decreased to $1.33 as compared to $2.15 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994. Weighted average shares were 1,570,498 and 647,501 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company had approximately $2,538,000 in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1995. Total current assets decreased approximately $1,091,849 from December 31, 1994 due primarily to the utilization of cash during the period to support operating activities and the payment and reduction of current liabilities. 24
10KSB25th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 25th
Total current liabilities decreased approximately $40,966 from December 31, 1994 due primarily to a reduction in accrued expenses. The Company believes that its current cash resources are adequate and sufficient for the Company's anticipated needs through approximately August 1997. The Company may thereafter, if it has not achieved a positive cash flow, require additional funds to sustain operations. No assurance may be given that such additional capital, if required, will be available to the Company in the future and, if not available, may have an adverse effect on the continued operations of the Company. At December 31, 1995, the Company had approximately $14.3 million in tax net operating loss carryforwards and no tax benefits were recorded. Approximately $3,100,000 of these losses relate to a subsidiary of the Company and which losses are limited in usage. In addition, utilization of approximately $9,900,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitations pursuant to Section 382 of the Tax Code. Effects of Inflation The Company does not view the effects of inflation to have a material effect upon its business. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS See Index to Financial Statements attached hereto.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers The General Corporation Law of Delaware provides generally that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative in nature, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) and, in a proceeding not by or in the right of the corporation, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such suit or proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. Delaware law further provides that a corporation will not indemnify any person against expenses incurred in connection with an action by or in the right of the corporation if such person 29
10KSB30th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 30th
shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses which such court shall deem proper. The By-Laws of the Company provide for indemnification of officers and directors of the Company to the greatest extent permitted by Delaware law for any and all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any action or proceeding, civil or criminal, commenced or threatened, arising out of services by or on behalf of the Company, providing such officer's or director's acts were not committed in bad faith. The By-Laws also provide for advancing funds to pay for anticipated costs and authorizes the Board to enter into an indemnification agreement with each officer or director. In accordance with Delaware law, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions eliminating the personal liability of directors, except for (i) breaches of a director's fiduciary duty of loyalty to the Company or to its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, and (iii) any transaction in which a director receives an improper personal benefit. These provisions only pertain to breaches of duty by directors as such, and not in any other corporate capacity, e.g., as an officer. As a result of the inclusion of such provisions, neither the Company nor its stockholders may be able to recover monetary damages against directors for actions taken by them which are ultimately found to have constituted negligence or gross negligence, or which are ultimately found to have been in violation of their fiduciary duties, although it may be possible to obtain injunctive or equitable relief with respect to such actions. If equitable remedies are found not to be available to stockholders in any particular case, stockholders may not have an effective remedy against the challenged conduct. The Company has entered into Indemnification Agreements with each of its directors and officers (the "Indemnitees") pursuant to which it has agreed to provide for indemnification, to the fullest extent permitted by law and the Company's By-Laws, against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement arising out of any claim in connection with any event, occurrence or circumstance related to such individual serving as a director or officer of the Company. Such indemnification includes the advance of expenses to the Indemnitees (including the payment of funds in trust therefor under certain circumstances) and is subject to there not having been determined that the Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law. The rights of indemnification are in addition to any other rights which the Indemnitees may have under the Company's Certificate of 30

Provision is made for the acceleration of the vesting of the Restricted Shares upon the occurrence of (a) the approval by the stockholders of the Company of an Approved Transaction, as defined; (b) a Control Purchase, as defined; (c) a Board change; or (d) the failure by the Company to renew Mr. Feigenbaum's employment agreement on the conclusion of its term on November 30, 1997 or any subsequent or renewed term, on terms identical to those in the employment agreement then prevailing.

Mr. Street, a Class 3 Director, is Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comprehensive Care Corporation. Mr. Street serves on the Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors.

10KSB37th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 37th
board meetings. Non-Employee Directors are also eligible for an initial and annual grant of stock options under the Company's NonEmployee Director Stock Option Plan (see "Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan" below). 1994 Incentive Stock Option Plan In August, 1994, the Board of Directors adopted a 1994 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") which Plan was approved and adopted by the stockholders of the Company on November 16, 1994. The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock upon the exercise of options granted to officers, directors, full time employees and consultants rendering services to the Company. Under the terms of the Plan, options granted thereunder will be designated as options which qualify for incentive stock option treatment ("ISO's") under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or options which do not so qualify ("Non-ISO's"). Unless sooner terminated, the Plan will expire on August 1, 2004 and options may be granted at any time or from time to time through such date. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the interests of the Company and its stockholders by strengthening the ability of the Company to attract and retain officers, employees and consultants by furnishing suitable recognition of their ability to contribute to the success of the Company and to align their interests and efforts with the long term interest of the Company. The Plan succeeds the Company's 1992 Incentive Stock Option Plan, which has been terminated except for options to acquire 13,715 shares thereunder. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or by a Stock Option Committee designated by the Board of Directors (the "Plan Administrator"). The Plan Administrator has the discretion to determine the eligible employees and consultants to whom, and the times and the prices at which, options will be granted; whether such options shall be ISO's or Non-ISO's; the periods during which each option will be granted; and the number of shares subject to each option. The Plan Administrator shall have full authority to interpret the plan and to establish and amend rules and regulations relating thereto. Under the Plan, the exercise price of an option designated as an ISO shall not be less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the option is granted. However, in the event an option designated as an ISO is granted to a ten percent stockholder (as defined in the Plan) such exercise price shall be at least 110% of such fair market value. Exercise prices of Non-ISOs may not be less than 85% of such fair market value. The aggregate fair market value of shares subject to an option designated as an ISO for which any participant may be granted such an option in any calendar year, shall not exceed $100,000 plus any unused carryovers (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) from a prior year. The "fair market value" will be the closing Nasdaq bid price or, if the Company's 37
10KSB38th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 38th
Common Stock is not quoted by Nasdaq, the low bid as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or a market maker of the Company's Common Stock or, if the Common Stock is not quoted by any of the above, by the Board of Directors acting in good faith. Options may be granted under the Plan for such periods as determined by the Plan Administrator; provided however that no option designated as an ISO granted under the Plan shall be exercisable over a period in excess of ten years, or in the case of a ten percent stockholder, five years. Options may be exercised in whole at any time or in part from time to time. Options are not transferable except to the estate of an option holder; provided, however, in the case of a Non-ISO, and subject to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and prevailing interpretations thereunder by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a recipient of a Non-ISO may, with the consent of the Plan Administrator, designate a named beneficiary of the Non-ISO in the event of the death of such recipient, or assign such Non-ISO. Except as described below, the Plan Administrator may from time to time amend the Plan as it deems proper and in the best interests of the Company without further approval of the stockholders. The Board of Directors and the Plan Administrator may not amend certain features of the Plan without the approval of the Company's stockholders to the extent such approval is required for compliance with Section 422 of the Code with respect to ISO's, Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to Non-ISO's or Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to awards made to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Such amendments would include (a) increasing the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan, (b) materially modifying the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan, or (c) otherwise materially increasing the benefits accruing to participants under the Plan. Options for a total of 176,100 Shares have been granted under the Plan, including options for 150,000 shares to Mr. Feigenbaum and 25,000 shares to Dr. Blackman, at exercise prices equal to $7.00 per share. Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan In August, 1994, the Board of Directors adopted the NonEmployee Director Stock Option Plan (the "Director Plan") which Director Plan was approved and adopted by the stockholders of the Company on November 16, 1994. The Director Plan provides for issuance of a maximum of 75,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of stock options granted under the Director Plan. Options may be granted under the Director Plan until August 1, 2004 to the Company's non-employee directors (as defined). The Director Plan 38
10KSB39th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 39th
provides that each non-employee director will automatically be granted an option to purchase 5,000 shares upon joining the Board of Directors (or, for those persons who are directors on the date of approval of the Director Plan by the stockholders, on such date), and options to purchase 3,000 shares on each anniversary of the initial date of service or date of approval, as the case may be. Under the terms of the Director Plan, the sum of the number of shares to be received upon any grant multiplied by the fair market value of each share at the time of grant may not exceed $75,000. All awards shall be reduced to the extent they exceed such amount. The exercise price for options granted under the Director Plan shall be 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Until otherwise provided in the Director Plan, the exercise price of options granted under the Director Plan must be paid at the time of exercise, either in cash, by delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company or by a combination of each. The term of each option is five years from the date of grant, unless terminated sooner as provided in the Director Plan. The Director Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors composed of not fewer than two persons who are officers of the Company (the "Committee"). The Committee has no discretion to determine which non-employee director will receive options or the number of shares subject to the option, the term of the option or the exercisability of the option. However, the Committee will make all determinations of the interpretation of the Director Plan. Options granted under the Director Plan do not qualify for incentive stock option treatment. Options for a total of 34,000 shares have been granted under the Director Plan, including options for 8,000 shares to each of Dr. Charrette and Messrs. Sterling and Green and 5,000 shares to each of Mr. Street and Mr. Fagenson. [BALANCE OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK] 39

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS The Corporation's subsidiary, ABC, borrowed $150,000 on February 11, 1993 and $100,000 on February 25, 1993 from the Small Business Loan Fund Corporation ("SBLFC"). Both loans bear interest at the rate of 5.4%, are secured by the Corporation's accounts receivable, inventory and equipment and are to be repaid over a five year period ending in February 1998. In conjunction with the above loans, the Corporation issued a warrant to SBLFC for 2,857 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $15.75 per share. Additional debt financing of $250,000, $166,000 and $125,000 was received from SBLFC on April 19, 1993, October 22, 1993, and 41
10KSB42nd Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 42nd
February 14, 1994, respectively. These financings also bear interest at 5.4%, are secured by the Corporation's accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, and intangible assets (including patents) and are to be repaid over five year periods from the respective loan dates. In conjunction with the April 19, 1993 loan, the Corporation issued to SBLFC a warrant for 42,857 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $28.35 per share. The proceeds of the SBLFC loans were used for working capital. SBLFC has certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of its warrants, which rights as to a demand registration the SBLFC has agreed to defer for 24 months until December, 1996. For information concerning the Employment Agreement of J. Marvin Feigenbaum, see "Executive Compensation - Employment Agreements." Effective, July 1, 1994 the Company entered into an amended employment agreement with Dr. Kenneth Blackman pursuant to which Dr. Blackman's employment as President and Chief Operating Officers of ABC, was continued for a one year term terminating June 30, 1995. This Agreement was not renewed on its termination date. Dr. Blackman received a salary at the rate of $130,000 per annum and had been provided with the Corporation's standard health and other benefits as presently provided to him. He also received an automobile allowance of $500 per month and reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Corporation in connection with the performance of his duties. Upon the execution of his Employment Agreement, Dr. Blackman was issued, in lieu of a cash bonus for services rendered, 6,825 shares of Common Stock valued at $3.50 per share. Such shares vested on June 30, 1995. In addition, and on or before April 15, 1996, the Corporation will pay to Dr. Blackman a one time cash bonus equal to the amount of combined federal and applicable state income taxes associated with such stock grant. Dr. Blackman was granted options to purchase 25,000 shares of the Corporation's Common Stock exercisable through December 31, 2002 at an option exercise price equal to $7.00 per share. ITEM 13.

Report of Independent Auditors To the Stockholders Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. and subsidiary (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders' equity for the years then ended and for the period of February 1, 1982 (inception) to December 31, 1995. 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 generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. and subsidiary at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated results of their operations, cash flows, and stockholders' equity for the years then ended and for the period of February 1, 1982 (inception) to December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. and Subsidiary (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1995 and 1994 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. (formerly Applied DNA Systems, Inc.) (the Company) was incorporated in September 1981 and commenced operations on February 1, 1982. The Company, primarily through collaborative ventures with universities and biotechnology companies, is engaged in biomedical research and development, using biotechnological techniques or processes, which the Company will sell or license to other companies, primarily in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The Company is now primarily engaged in the commercial development of chemosensitivity assays. The Stockholders of the Company adopted a series of resolutions on November 16, 1994, authorizing the amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect (i) a reverse Common Stock split on a one-for-thirty-five basis and (ii) reducing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 12,000,000. Accordingly, all share and per share data included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restated for the effect of the reverse stock split. The consolidated financial statements for December 31, 1995 and 1994, include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Analytical Biosystems Corporation (ABC). All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Where appropriate, prior year amounts have been reclassified to permit comparison. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises" since the Company's planned principal operations have commenced, but there has been no significant revenue therefrom. Successful completion of the Company's development program and its transition to ultimately attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of sales adequate to support the Company's cost structure. 11

Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. and Subsidiary (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers money market funds to be cash equivalents. EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS Equipment and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost. Depreciation has been provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 5-7 years for financial reporting purposes. In 1995, certain equipment was acquired under capitalized lease obligations. These assets total $46,700, with related accumulated amortization of $3,200 at December 31, 1995. OTHER ASSETS In March 1995, the FASB issued Statement No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived assets that are expected to be disposed of. The Company will adopt Statement 121 in the first quarter of 1996 and, based on current circumstances, does not believe the effect of adoption will be material. 12

Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. and Subsidiary (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The Company accounts for goodwill at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. On an ongoing basis, management reviews to determine if "impairment indicators" are present. If impairment indicators are present, the Company will perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment. This review would consist of the Company reevaluating significant assumptions used in determining the original cost of the acquired business and related goodwill. These assumptions include operating results, cash flows and other indicators of value. Based upon this periodic assessment, management would determine whether there has been a permanent impairment of the value of goodwill and would adjust the carrying value accordingly. The Company would determine fair value based upon independent appraisals or cash flows discounted at a risk adjusted rate, as appropriate in the circumstances. The goodwill is a result of the acquisition of ABC (see Note 3). Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: Patent 17 years Goodwill 10 years STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company grants qualified stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. The Company accounts for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense for the stock option grants. For certain non-qualified stock options, restricted stock and warrants granted, the Company recognizes as compensation expense the excess of the deemed fair value of the common stock issuable upon exercise of such options over the aggregate exercise price of such options. The compensation is amortized over the vesting period of each option or the recipient's term of employment, if shorter. 13

Nu-Tech Bio-Med, Inc. and Subsidiary (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INCOME TAXES The liability method is used to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities as well as net operating loss carryforwards and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to reflect the uncertainty associated with their ultimate realization. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Fully-diluted earnings per share, assuming conversion of outstanding warrants and options, are not presented since the effect would be antidilutive. SALES Substantially all of the Company's assay sales are billed to third-party payors and recognized net of billing adjustments, when results of an assay are complete and sent to a physician. Payment from third-party payors is dependent upon the specific benefits included in each patient's policy. The Company provides an allowance for billing adjustments to cover estimated differences between the Company's billed charges and anticipated collection from third-party payors and patients. The amount of these billing adjustments, relating to assay sales during 1995 and 1994, were approximately $22,000 and $77,000, respectively. 3. INTANGIBLE ASSETS On February 12, 1990, the Company completed its acquisition of the remaining outstanding shares of ABC, not previously owned by the Company. As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded $750,000 of excess cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired ("goodwill") related to this transaction. Patent costs capitalized include related legal and filing fees. 14
