|   | The accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which in the opinion of management, are necessary to
present fairly the financial position of the Company at January 31, 2003, and the results of its operations for the three month and nine month periods ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 and its cash flows for the nine month periods ended January 31,
2003 and 2002. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company believes that the
disclosures in the financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and, at January 31, 2003 has an accumulated deficit of $18,365,261 and continues to sustain operating losses on a monthly
basis. Since the Company is in the pre-clinical trial stage of its products, these products must undergo considerable development and testing prior to submission to the FDA for approval to market the products.  The Companys continuation
as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing sufficient to fund the required additional development and testing and to meet its obligations on a timely basis.  These factors, among others, raise substantial
doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

|   | In April 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 145, Rescission of FAS Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FAS Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections, to update, clarify and simplify existing accounting pronouncements. FAS Statement No. 4, which required all gains and losses from debt extinguishment to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net
of related tax effect, was rescinded. Consequently, FAS Statement No. 64, which amended FAS Statement No. 4, was rescinded because it was no longer necessary.

|   | In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (SFAS 146), which
provides financial accounting and reporting guidance for costs associated with exit or disposal activities, including one-time termination benefits, contract termination costs other than for a capital lease, and costs to consolidate facilities or
relocate employees. SFAS 146 nullifies EITF Issue 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).

|        | Under SFAS 146, a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity should be recognized and measured initially at its fair value in the period in
which the liability is incurred, except for a liability for one-time termination benefits that is incurred over time. Accounting for one-time benefits depends on whether the employee will be providing future services. In addition, a liability for
costs to terminate a contract before the end of its term should be recognized and measured at its fair value at the time the entity terminates the contract in accordance with its terms. A liability for costs that will continue to be incurred under
the contract for its remaining term without economic benefit to the entity should be recognized and measured at its fair value when the entity ceases to use the right conveyed by the contract. SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities
initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company has not determined the impact the adoption of SFAS 146 will have on its financial position or results of operations.

This Statement amends SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In
addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the
method used on reporting results.  The disclosure provisions of SFAS 148 are applicable for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2002.

|        | Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  The
Companys actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this section and those
discussed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended April 30, 2002 and the filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

performance or achievements.  Moreover, neither the Company nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements.  The Company is under no obligation to update any of the
forward-looking statements after the filing of the Form 10-Q to conform such statements or actual results or to changes in expectations.

| | Significant risks and uncertainties are associated with the Companys ability to obtain the required financing to develop its products.  The Companys projected
capital requirements are based on the expectation that strategic partners will assume further development and regulatory costs for each product during Phase III clinical trials and thereafter.  If that does not happen, the amount of financing
the Company will be required to raise could increase substantially.  If the Company is unable to raise adequate financing, it may be required to delay, scale-back, or eliminate product development programs and sell the rights to certain
technologies or products.

| | The Company submitted an Investigational New Drug application (IND) to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Feb. 6, 2003, for Oxycyte, the Companys
perfluorocarbon-based blood substitute and therapeutic oxygen carrier. The IND application informs the FDA of the Companys intent to start a Phase I safety study with Oxycyte in human subjects. The FDA has 30 days to review the IND. If the

decline in interest rates on invested funds and a decline in invested balances over the same period in 2002.
