BUSINESS

A. Overview

CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. (formerly CardioVascular Genetic Engineering, Inc.), (CVBT), (Cardio) or (the Company) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing drugs to stimulate the growth of new blood vessels for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the Companys drug candidates is acidic human fibroblast growth factor-1, FGF-1141 (formerly called Cardio Vascu-GrowTM) and it facilitates the growth of new blood vessels in the heart tissues and organs with an impaired vascular system. This process is referred
to as angiogenesis in the scientific community.

CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. was established in 1998, as a Delaware corporation, to commercialize the results of the clinical research in cardiovascular disease treatment for Severe Coronary Heart Disease (formerly known as No-Option Heart Patients) that Dr. Thomas J Stegmann, co-founder of the company, performed in the mid-1990s. The Company entered into an agreement with Dr. Stegmann, dated March 11, 1998, which is superseded by an agreement dated August 16, 2004, whereby Dr. Stegmann granted the Company a non-revocable exclusive perpetual right to use, modify, add to, practice and sell the results of his clinical trials. Dr. Stegmann will
receive a one percent royalty on all sales of drugs formulated with FGF-1141 through December 31, 2013. The grant of rights is perpetual and therefore cannot be terminated by Dr. Stegmann. To date the Company has made no royalty payments under this Agreement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. has not generated revenues to date and expects to incur substantial and increasing losses for at least the next several years. The Company does not expect to generate revenues until the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves one of its drug candidates, and the Company begins marketing it. The Company expects to continue to invest significant amounts on the development of its drug candidates. The Company expects to incur significant commercialization costs when it recruits a domestic sales force. The Company also plans to continue to invest in research and development for additional
applications of FGF-1141 and to develop new drug delivery technologies. Accordingly, the Company will need to generate significant revenues to achieve and then maintain profitability.

Most of the Companys expenditures have been for research and development activities and general and administrative expenses. The Company conducts research to identify and evaluate medical indications that may benefit from its drug candidates and potential new drug candidates that can graduate from research to development. The Company classifies its research and development into two major classifications: pre-clinical and clinical. Pre-clinical activities include product analysis and development, primarily animal efficacy and animal toxicity studies. Clinical activities include FDA (or other countries equivalent regulatory agencies)
Investigational New Drug (IND) submissions, FDA-authorized trials and the FDA approval process for commercialization. Research and development expenses represent costs incurred for pre-clinical and clinical activities. The Company outsources its clinical trials and its manufacturing and development activities to third parties to maximize efficiency and minimize the Companys internal overhead. Manufacturing is outsourced to an affiliated entity. The Company expenses its research and development costs as they are incurred.

These expenses are subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with clinical trials and the FDA review and approval process. As a result, these additional expenses could exceed the Companys estimated amounts, possibly materially. The Company is uncertain as to what it expects to incur in future research and development costs for its pre-clinical activities as these amounts are subject to the outcome of current pre-clinical activities, Management is continuing its assessment of the economics of each individual research and development project and the internal competition for project funding.

General and administrative expenses have focused primarily on the activities of administrative support, marketing, intellectual property rights and corporate compliance. The Company anticipates that general and administrative expenses will increase as a result of the expected expansion of its operations, facilities and other activities associated with the planned expansion of the business, together with the additional costs associated with operating as a public company. The Company will incur sales and marketing expenses as it builds its sales force and marketing capabilities for its drug candidates, subject to receiving required regulatory
approvals. The Company expects these expenses to be material.

Market Opportunity

Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is a class of diseases that affects the cardiovascular system, the heart, arteries and veins. According to the American Heart Association Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics  2008 Update, which is the source of the information in this section unless otherwise noted (AHA 2008 Update), in the United States an estimated 80.7 million adults (1 in 3) have one or more cardiovascular diseases, of which, approximately 870,000 lives were claimed by CVD in 2004. This number represents 36.3% of all deaths, or 1 out of 2.8 deaths. Worldwide CVD claimed 17.5 million lives in 2005 according to the World
Health Organization 2007 Statistical Information System.

Over $296 billion is spent per year in hospital costs, medical professional services and drug costs to treat cardiovascular disease in the United States. Additionally, $152 billion in costs result from lost productivity, morbidity and mortality. The estimated direct and indirect cost of cardiovascular disease in the United States for 2008 is $449 billion. CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. believes that its drug candidates will offer a cost effective, safe and efficacious therapy to treat CVD in this market.

The Companys leading drug candidates target four cardiovascular diseases, coronary heart disease, peripheral arterial disease, dermal ulcers and degenerative disc disease.

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)afflicts 16 million people over the age of 20 in the United States causing approximately 451,000 deaths in 2004. It is the single leading cause of death in the United States today, killing approximately one American every minute. An additional 770,000 Americans will have a new heart

attack this year. The 2008 estimated direct and indirect cost of CHD in the United States is $156 billion. CVBT-141H has the potential to offer a catheter based therapeutic treatment to combat severe cases of CHD.

Dermal Ulcers are a class of ulcers that include diabetic ulcers, pressure ulcers, neuropathic ulcers and venous ulcers. Diabetic ulcers occur in approximately 12% of U.S. adults with diabetes or roughly 1.92 million people. Sixty percent (60%) of all lower extremity amputations occur among people with diabetes and approximately 85% of these amputations are preceded by a foot ulcer. Approximately 1.7 million pressure ulcers are treated in acute care settings each year at an annual cost of $5 to $8.5 billion. In total, the global advanced wound care segment has been estimated to be worth $4.1 billion and growing at a rate of 10% per year. The
Company believes CVBT-141B has the potential to offer an effective and more efficient way of treating dermal ulcers than many products that are currently on the market.

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)affects approximately 8 million people in the United States and is expected to increase to 23 million in seven major markets by 2014. These individuals have a 4 to 5 times increased risk of dying of a CVD event than people without PAD. Twenty five percent (25%) of these patients will progress to critical limb ischemia frequently requiring amputation with associated heightened rates of mortality. Estimates are that this market represents a $35 billion unrealized U.S. sale of therapeutics. CVBT believes that its PAD drug candidate CVBT-141C could take a share of this unmet market need.

Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) occurs in roughly 85% of all back pain reported problems. Approximately 80% of Americans experience lower back pain in their lifetime which resulted in 32 million physician visits in 2004 and 1.2 million hospital admissions. Lower back pain is the leading source of disability in the United States. Yearly prevalence of lower back pain in Europe is 25  45%, which is 2 to 5 times more prevalent than in the United States. Indirect and direct costs associated with back pain range from $80 to $100 billion dollars a year in the United States. Thirty-three percent (33%) of all back related hospital
admissions in 2004 were attributed to disc disorders. The Company believes that DDD is directly associated with a lack of perfusion in the area of the disc and thus is conducting research in disc ischemia.

The Company believes its drug candidates will provide cost effective and efficacious therapies that will address these indications. To this end, the Company is working on the following drug candidates with FGF-1141 as the API:

Clinical Development

The Company remains dedicated to moving its three FDA authorized clinical trials forward. Below is a summary of the Companys progress over the past year for each trial.

(i) Severe Coronary Heart Disease.  The Company has completed the enrollment and treatment of all patients specified in its Phase I clinical trial protocol for CVBT-141A. A total of 21 patients were treated at six participating U.S. medical centers managed by the contracted clinical research organization. A full study report for this trial will be submitted to the FDA with no significant adverse events reported attributable to the drug.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Based on a recommendation from the FDA for the Companys Phase II protocol, the Company has changed the manner in which it administers the drug from a surgical delivery to a catheter delivery system. Given this new delivery protocol, the Company has delineated this drug candidate as CVBT-141H. This new clinical trial design was reviewed and allowed by the FDA. The catheter that will be utilized in this study is the MyoStar® injection catheter manufactured by Biologics Delivery Systems, a subsidiary of Cordis Corporation. The clinical research organization, Kendle, will oversee and manage the international Phase II trial, which will be
conducted at up to 30 sites in the U.S., Canada and Western Europe. The trial will be a double-blind placebo controlled trial with approximately 120 patients receiving either one of 3 dosage amounts of CVBT-141H or a placebo dose.

The Company intends to seek approval for CVBT-141A as a surgical delivery (adjunct to bypass surgery) under a separate trial and is in the process of defining a continuation to its Phase I clinical trial that will utilize this specific delivery approach.

(ii) Wound Healing (Dermal Ulcers).  The Company has completed an FDA authorized Phase I clinical trial in which the Company tested its wound healing drug candidate CVBT-141B in eight patients with diabetic foot ulcers or venous stasis leg wounds. The patients received either a low or high dose application of the Companys wound healing drug candidate and no adverse events were observed in any of the patients receiving the drug candidate. A Phase Ib/II clinical protocol to continue development of this drug candidate is now being finalized for submission to the FDA. In this trial, both safety and efficacy of the drug
candidate will be tested.

Prior to the Companys Phase I trial, the Company completed animal studies demonstrating that CVBT-141B was safe and efficacious in healing wounds in diabetic mice. In addition, it was demonstrated that little, if any, of its wound healing drug candidate was absorbed into the blood stream after topical application to the wound surface. Similar absorption studies were conducted in patients of the Companys Phase I clinical trial.

(iii) Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).  An area of research the Company is exploring is growing new blood vessels to treat people with PAD with its drug candidate CVBT-141C. Pre-clinical research in animals has shown that CVBT-141C improves blood supply to the legs and feet to decrease pain and prevent tissue loss. Animal efficacy studies with the drug candidate in a rabbit model of PAD demonstrated that the drug candidate caused increased iliac artery blood flow and collateral vessel density and micro vascular development in the legs of the treated animals. Toxicity studies to support an IND application to the FDA were
successfully completed and a Phase I clinical study in PAD patients has been reviewed and allowed by the FDA. The Company has contracted with the Colorado Prevention Center (CPC), a clinical research organization (CRO) that specializes in PAD clinical trials to manage this trial. Six U.S. medical centers have agreed to participate in this study.

Pre-Clinical Research and Development

The Companys research and development is focused on developing new drug candidates in which FGF-1141 is the API for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases where the growth of new blood vessels can improve the outcome for patients. The Company conducts research to identify and evaluate medical indications that may benefit from its drug candidates. When the evidence and results of the Companys research are positive, a potential new drug candidate graduates from research to development. Each drug candidate follows

4

TABLE OF CONTENTS

a similar development pathway. The first step is animal studies. The Company looks for the correct biological response of drug candidates using FGF-1141 in animal models of cardiovascular disease. The Company also performs toxicity studies where it will look for any expected or unexpected side effects of its drug candidates compared to similar products on the market, if such products exist. Then the Company will initiate a clinical development program, which will commence with the submission of an IND application to the U.S. FDA. Human studies may begin once the FDA allows the IND to proceed. The Company works with the FDA on a case-by-case
basis to determine the extent of clinical testing with each protein product in development.

As of February 29, 2008, the Company had four scientist employees, eight scientists under contract through a technical support agreement with a related party, and two other individuals involved in research and development activities under contract. Their tasks included overseeing pre-clinical testing, researching other medical uses of FGF-1141, preparing, and filing various regulatory documents with the FDA. In addition, these personnel are responsible for establishing that the quality of each drug candidate used in the clinical trials meets the specifications required by the FDA.

Pre-Clinical Research and Development Projects to Date Include:

(i) Lumbar Ischemia.  As of in 2007, four patients have been dosed in the low dose group with no adverse events reported. Due to extremely slow enrollment into this trial, the Company has decided to close this study in Russia and focus on the Disc Ischemia medical indication detailed below.

(ii) Disc Ischemia.  The Company has initiated a population study in all age groups to ascertain the degree that perfusion abnormalities of the lumbar vertebral bodies and the vertebral discs are associated with lumbar degenerative disc disease connected to lower back pain. The Company has contracted with the Orthopaedic Education and Research Institute (OrthoERI) of Southern California to perform a preliminary clinical study on approximately 50 volunteers. Dr. Vance Gardner, a noted orthopedic spine surgeon and executive director of OrthoERI, has agreed to consult with CVBT regarding his scientific and market research. The
study received institutional review board (IRB) approval and to date approximately 41 volunteers have entered this proof-of-concept clinical study. The technique employed uses a unique proprietary, contrast enhanced, high field strength MRI scanning technique that identifies blocked blood vessels and/or perfusion abnormalities of the lumbar vertebral bodies and/or the vertebral discs. The goal for the study is the identification of abnormalities that can be improved with angiogenic treatment. These abnormalities may include; diminished nutrition etiology of degenerative disc disease or an ischemic mechanism of vertebral bone repair perfusion. To date, the Company is observing differences in the perfusion of vertebrae and disks in younger volunteers as compared to those in the ages that are more associated with degenerative disc disease and bone degeneration. Once an adequate population study has been completed and diagnostic criteria developed, the Company will investigate
the clinical use of drug candidate CVBT-141D, to improve a diagnosed ischemic state.

(iii) Stroke.  The Company is continuing its research with experimental animal models of both acute and chronic stroke, and the Company is examining the potential improvement in neurological deficits caused by stroke after treatment with FGF-1.

(iv) Bone Repair.  The Company has obtained data from animal experiments that FGF-1 is a strong stimulator of new bone growth (osteogenesis) when administered in mice. The Company will now carry out additional experiments in larger animals (sheep) that give responses that are more predictive of the results of similar experiments on humans. The Company will also explore the use of its drug candidate in animal fracture repair models, including spinal fusions for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD).

The Company plans to continue its research activities in relation to possible indications where the API may show therapeutic utility.

          Depends on availability of budget.Business Strategy

The Company is focused on achieving its stated goal to become a commercially viable business. The Companys business strategy is based on developing a series of products for unmet medical needs associated with cardiovascular disease. Specifically, the Companys strategy calls for specific steps that will drive the growth and profitability of its core business:



          Efficiently complete the clinical trials of the Companys top three drug candidates:

          CVBT-141H for the treatment of severe coronary heart disease with an injection catheter delivery system

          CVBT-141B for the treatment of dermal ulcers in diabetic patients

          CVBT-141C for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease

          Obtain FDA NDA (New Drug Applications) approval for the above drugs as quickly as possible.

          Secure approval for coding, coverage, and reimbursement with payers.

          Secure commercial manufacturing capacity for the Companys drug candidates.

The prevalence and cost of cardiovascular disease and stroke in the U.S. is growing. An estimated 80.7 million American adults have one or more types of cardiovascular disease. The estimate was extrapolated to the U.S. population in 2004 from NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) 1999-2004.

(a)

          Including heart diseases, coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertensive disease and heart failure.The Companys primary focus is on the growth of new blood vessels in patients with coronary heart disease. According to the AHA 2008 Update, $9.7 billion is likely to be spent on drugs that treat coronary heart disease in 2008. Existing treatments include open-heart bypass procedures, balloon angioplasty procedures to open blocked arteries, insertion of stints into blocked arteries and selected drugs including nitrates that dilate the coronary arteries. If the clinical trials continue to be successful, the Company believes that treatment with its drug candidate CVBT-141H will be able to lower the overall cost of treating coronary heart disease.
This analysis reinforces the Companys decision to make the treatment of coronary heart disease the Companys first market for development.

The Companys goal is to establish its drug candidates as an integral part of the treatment regimen for cardiovascular disease where the growth of new blood vessels can improve the outcome for patients with these diseases.

The key elements of the Companys strategy are:

Obtain Regulatory Approval of Drug Candidates

The Companys first and primary task is to obtain FDA regulatory approval for its drug candidates. The Company will continue with its clinical trials until the new drug candidates for Severe CHD, Wound Healing, PAD, DDD and other new drug candidates are approved for commercial sale. At the same time the Company files for approval in the United States to sell CVBT-141H commercially, the Company will file for approval to the European Union. The Company may be required to conduct additional clinical trials to obtain European approval.

Prior to the anticipated drug approval by the FDA, the Company intends to start the process to register its new drugs with the government and insurance companies drug registration payment system in the United States. Most drugs administered to patients in the United States are at least partially reimbursed or paid for by insurance companies or the United States government. Thus, to achieve commercial success, a drug needs to be registered in the drug payment system to be reimbursable.

Establish Marketing, Sales and Distribution

The Company believes that strategic investments in pre-launch marketing can yield significant benefits to the shareholders. The Company is developing its pre-launch marketing investment priorities for each of its future drugs by defining:



          Where the Company should target  Geographic priorities based upon market opportunity and potential

          Who the Company should target  High priority relevant customer segments that are particularly influential prior to launch

          When the Company should be communicating  when is the right time to reach high priority customer segments

          What the Company should be saying  defining messaging that is targeted at high priority customer segments

TABLE OF CONTENTS



          How the Company should be communicating  defining and leveraging marketing channels that are the most effective and efficient in reaching its targetsThe Companys geographic priorities are risk adjusted to account for local economic policies, accounting standards, business regulatory environment, regional instabilities, and the legal environment. This risk adjusted geographic analysis is the basis for the Companys business development efforts and early stage marketing investments. As such, the Company is evaluating licensing, marketing, sales and distribution opportunities in the United States, Europe, and Japan.

In defining the Companys marketing, sales and distribution opportunities, the Company weighs market opportunity against sales and distribution complexity, as well as risk and cost. This is the basis for defining the Companys approach to either outsourcing or insourcing these functions through licensing, partnership agreements, or developing internal capabilities.

As the Company approaches the launch of any one of its drug candidates, the Company will shift its marketing focus to drive revenue in key and opportunistic markets to support sales.

Marketing Strategy

The Companys current marketing efforts are focused primarily on building awareness and interest in its drug candidates to treat severe coronary heart disease (CHD). The Company is also spending time developing awareness about its clinical work to treat dermal wounds, peripheral arterial disease and intervertebral disc degeneration. Through these marketing efforts, the Company is targeting people and organizations that are important to the company at this stage of the companys lifecycle. The Company believes these potential stakeholders can be grouped into three segments: advocates, approvers, and adopters. Advocates are influential
segments and opinion leaders that can accelerate awareness of the Companys products, solutions, and company. Approvers are large institutions that control the approval, sale, pricing, and licensing of the Companys drugs, procedures, and intellectual property. Adopters are people and organizations that are gatekeepers to the adoption of the Companys drugs and the use of its drugs, diagnostics, and procedures with patients.

Across these three segments, healthcare providers (physicians, medical professionals, and hospitals/clinics), patients, caregivers (family members and friends of patients), investors, suppliers, regulators, and payers engage in different activities that influence progress and pave the way for the Companys market success. Understanding the needs of these segments and how to accommodate them, will help the Company ensure that it has advocates, approvers and adopters for its drug candidates.

Severe Coronary Heart Disease

People with Severe Coronary Heart Disease have been informed by their doctors that they have been classified as Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) angina class III or IV patients. CCS Class III means that patients have marked limitations of ordinary physical activity. They experience angina when walking one to two blocks on level ground or climbing one flight of stairs in normal conditions and at a normal pace. CCS Class IV is defined as having an inability to carry on any physical activity without discomfort. These people may experience symptoms of angina when they are resting. As a whole, these patients condition could be the result of
advanced coronary artery disease. Those patients may have already received heart bypass surgery, may be heart transplant recipients or may present other medical conditions where traditional medical treatments have produced limited results. Based on the results of Dr. Stegmanns two clinical human studies in Germany, the Company believes both potential patients and their doctors should be very interested in the Companys new drug candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease, CVBT-141H, containing FGF-1141, as treatment to grow new blood vessels for the human heart around clogged arteries.

Specific Marketing and Sales Plan for the Companys Drug Candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease.  The Company will market its drug candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease to its three market segments (Advocates, Approvers, and Adopters) through targeted marketing efforts. Most of the Companys marketing campaigns will involve raising awareness in patients, doctors and payers. The Companys marketing strategy will be based upon the premise that the three market segments have different needs. These factors influence a given stake holders desire to advocate, approve, or adopt the Companys drug
candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease (CVBT-141H) and the timing that is relevant for them. If CVBT-141H delivers the patient benefits, the Company hopes to demonstrate, the Company believes that doctors and patients in

8

TABLE OF CONTENTS

particular will exert significant demand for CVBT-141H and is associated procedure. Additionally, if the Companys drug candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease delivers the benefits it hopes to demonstrate, and if the results of the benefits of the drug include a decrease in the need for, and cost of, repeat angiograms and subsequent treatment for recurrent angina, the Company then believes the cost savings to payers may exceed the cost of the drug. Then, payers desires to save costs and/or improve profits should exert demand on hospitals and doctors to provide the Companys drug candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease and
procedure. Accordingly, the Company intends to market its product by creating advocates, approvers, and adopters from payers, patients, hospitals and doctors thus driving demand.

Specifically, the Company will (1) market economics and patient care to payers to secure approval for reimbursement agreements, (2) market to leading cardiac hospitals, the economics and patient care in an effort to have the product advocated and adopted as Standard of Care. This status will aid in marketing to other cardiac hospitals, (3) market patient care and economics to the doctors to secure adoption, and (4) market the benefits of well being to patients to encourage demand through advocates. The Company engaged consultants who have experience marketing to doctors, hospitals and patients. The Company has also attended professional
conferences across the country, marketing to doctors from across the world and has consultants working on economic models for marketing to payers.

Sales and distribution will be developed concurrently with the Companys primary marketing efforts. The Company will require a sales staff to cover the major cardiac centers, hospitals and medical groups. The Company may develop these sales capabilities itself or work with other drug distribution companies. If the Companys treatment is advocated and adopted by cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons and the hospital administration; then the workload for its sales and marketing team should be greatly reduced.

Manufacturing

Phage Biotechnology Corporation, an affiliated company (Phage), presently manufactures the Companys pharmaceutical products in its new laboratory production facility in San Diego, California, and is currently the Companys sole source of supply. Phage has developed a proprietary manufacturing process to produce protein pharmaceutical products. To date, Phage has manufactured all the clinical doses required for the Company ongoing, and soon to commence, Phase I clinical trials and has the manufacturing capacity to provide product for the Phase II and III trials as well. Additionally, the Company is investigating other outsourced
contract manufacturers as a backup to Phage should there ever be any interruption in supply or capacity issues. Phage has been certified by the State of California to manufacture biological drugs for clinical and commercial uses, which ensures that the Company is receiving GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) quality drugs for all its clinical studies.

In addition to its California State License, Phage would also have to obtain a license from the FDA in order for it to begin manufacturing commercial quantities of the Companys drug candidates for sale. The FDA inspection does not occur until after a successful Phase III trial has been completed; and there can be no assurance that Phages current or future facilities would be so certified by the FDA. The fact that Phages manufacturing facility passed a rigorous 4-day inspection by California State authorities indicates that Phage understands and is in compliance with current acceptable good manufacturing practices. As part of the
ongoing clinical trials, the FDA reviewed documentation of Phages manufacturing process and quality control systems and the clinical trial was authorized to commence.

For details about the Companys contract with Phage to develop and manufacture its drug candidates, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations  Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments, and. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Business  Patents and Proprietary Technology.

Collaboration

The Company continues to be open to and to evaluate the economic benefits of collaborations on research and development activities for individual or groups of potential new drug candidates in its product pipeline. In this regard, the Company currently is exploring obtaining commercial rights to FGF-1 mutants that may have enhanced stability or potency as a therapeutic agent.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Training

The procedure to administer the Companys drug candidate for Severe Coronary Heart Disease is a relatively simple procedure for an interventional cardiologist. The procedure to administer the drug candidate to PAD patients is a relatively simple procedure for a vascular surgeon. Based on discussions with cardiologists participating in the current clinical trial, no additional training for cardiologists who will administer the drug in the future will be needed. It should be noted that for the heart disease trial, all of the sites that will participate would have had previous experience and training with the MyoStar® injection catheter system.
The procedure for administering the drug candidate for Wound Healing is also a relatively simple procedure for healthcare providers of applying a salve to the wound. The Company believes that no additional training for administering the drug in the future will be needed.

Competition

Currently, the Company is not aware of anyone injecting a fibroblast growth factor protein into the wall of the heart to stimulate the growth of new blood vessels in Severe Coronary Heart Disease. The Company is aware of one Phase III angiogenesis trial being conducted by Cardium Therapeutics, which is testing an adenovirus vector containing FGF-4 and injecting the viral gene therapy into the coronary arteries of female no-option heart patients. It should be noted that this drug candidate failed in a previous, broader Phase II trial in which both woman and men were enrolled. The sponsor of that trial, Schering Corp., abandoned the further development
of this drug. In a second clinical trial, Mytogen, Inc. acquired from GenVec, Inc. the rights to a gene therapy agent known as Bio-bypass and is currently conducting a Phase II trial in 126 patients in Europe. Results from this trial have not yet been announced. The Company is also aware of several commercial firms active in regenerating blood flow to the heart using cell therapy. The Company believes cell therapy clinical trials involve more patient risk and to date, no cell therapy has been approved by the FDA.

In the area of PAD, the Company is aware of two companies, Sanofi-Aventis and Genzyme that have clinical programs aimed at growing new blood vessels in the legs of diabetics and are using a gene-therapy approach. No gene therapy has yet been approved by the FDA for commercial sale, and previous angiogenesis trials with gene therapies have not, in general, achieve statistically significant improvements in various clinical endpoints that were tested in these trials.

In the area of wound healing, Genentech, Inc. is performing a Phase II trial in diabetic wound healing, evaluating the protein growth factor vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF). In addition, Johnson & Johnson has a marketed growth factor product with the name Regranex. See also Risk Factors  Risks Related to the Company  Competition and technological change may make the Companys products and technology less attractive or obsolete.

Patents and Proprietary Technology

The Company entered into a joint patent agreement with Phage as of February 28, 2007 (the Joint Patent Agreement). The Company plans to develop and commercialize therapeutic methods related to the induction of angiogenesis or wound healing by administration of Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF); and, Phage plans to develop and commercialize recombinant DNA methods for producing peptides/proteins. The Company and Phage entered into a joint patent ownership and license agreement dated as of August 16, 2004, which was later amended and restated as of May 23, 2006 (the Joint Ownership Agreement), pursuant to which Phage
granted the Company a 50% ownership interest in certain patents and patents applications listed in the Joint Ownership Agreement, as well as certain future patent rights, and the parties acknowledge that the Company would have exclusive rights within a defined filed, while Phage would have exclusive rights outside that field. The Company and Phage superseded the Joint Ownership Agreement with the Joint Patent Agreement to specify those future patents and patent applications that are to be subject to joint ownership and to restate the licenses granted in the Joint Ownership Agreement. The Company and Phage acknowledge that the jointly owned and cross-licensed rights are key to the parties respective plans for development and commercialization and further clarified the parties respective rights and provide for continued access to the necessary rights in the event of insolvency. In consideration for the grant of the exclusive right to the patent rights in the field, the
Company agreed to pay a 6% royalty on the net sales price of finished product to end customer or

10

TABLE OF CONTENTS

distributor. The rights and obligations set forth in the Joint Patent Agreement end upon the later of (a) the expiration of the last to expire Jointly Owned Patent and (b) the abandonment of the last pending Joint Patent Application.

The Company entered into this joint ownership arrangement in order to protect itself from any issues arising from research that may be conducted by Phage on the Companys behalf that could have possible adverse affects on patentability of findings from this research. Under U.S. patent law, common ownership of patents and patent applications covering related developing technologies provides potential advantages related to patentability of inventions. For example, subject matter developed by Phage that qualifies as prior art only under certain provisions of the Patent Laws would not render obvious (un-patentable) a claimed invention of the
Company, where the Phage-developed subject matter and the Company claimed invention were commonly owned.

In addition, at the Companys election, it will purchase the bulk product from Phage for a price equal to 4% of the net sales price of the drug product, use another contract manufacturer or manufacture its products itself. It is the Companys expectation that it will acquire its drug products from Phage; however, the Company is able to use another contract manufacturer or manufacture its products itself. The agreement with Phage has no termination provision and expires on the last to expire of the applicable patent rights involved, currently August 15, 2021, but the agreement will automatically be extended for a period equal to the
expiration date of any newly filed patent applications. During the term of the agreement, Phage and the Company are jointly responsible for filing and maintaining all patents and applications that involve FGF-1141, including splitting related costs. Under this arrangement, the Company has an undivided half interest in four issued U.S. patents, one U.S. patent application that is pending, and all foreign patent applications related to the U.S. patents and applications.

The Company has no joint ownership agreements with any entity that is conducting research on its behalf other than the joint ownership agreement with Phage; however, the Company might consider engaging in such an arrangement again to protect intellectual property in which the Company acquires or develops an interest.

The Company requires its employees to execute confidentiality agreements in connection with their employment. The Company also requires its employees, consultants and advisors who it expects to work on its products, to agree to disclose and assign to the Company all intellectual property beneficial to the Company or conceived using its property that relates to the Companys business. Phage follows similar policies. Despite any measures taken to protect its intellectual property, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of the Companys products or to obtain and use information that the Company regards as proprietary. Finally, the
Companys competitors may independently develop similar technologies. Due to the importance of the patent portfolio to the Companys business, the Company may lose market share to its competitors if the Company fails to protect its intellectual property rights, which may entail great expense.

The biopharmaceutical industry is characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and frequent litigation based on allegations of patent infringement. As the number of entrants into the Companys market increases, the possibility of a patent infringement claim against the Company grows. While the Company makes an effort to ensure that its products do not infringe other parties patents and proprietary rights, its products and methods may be covered by United States patents held by the Companys competitors. In addition, the Companys competitors may assert that future products it may market infringe on their patents.

On March 20, 2006, the Company granted a security interest in its patents, patent applications, trade marks and trade mark applications to Promethean Asset Management LLC (Promethean), acting on behalf of HFTP Investment LLC, Gaia Offshore Master Fund, Ltd., Caerus Fund, Ltd., and Leonardo, L.P. in connection with the purchase of senior secured notes in an original aggregate principal amount of $20,000,000.

Allowance of New Patent  Injection of FGF-1141

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office allowed the Companys patent application entitled Method of Producing Biologically Active Human Acidic Fibroblast Growth Factor and its Use in Promoting Angiogenesis for the injection of Acidic Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF-1) into the human heart. This patent describes

Government Regulation

Regulation by government authorities in the United States and foreign countries is a significant factor in the development, manufacture and marketing of products such as the Companys and in the Companys ongoing research and product development activities. As noted above, the Companys drug candidates will require regulatory approval by government agencies prior to commercialization. In particular, human therapeutic products are subject to rigorous pre-clinical studies, clinical trials and other approval procedures of the FDA and similar regulatory authorities in foreign countries. Various federal and state statutes and regulations
also govern or influence testing, manufacturing, safety, labeling, storage and record keeping related to such products and their marketing. The process of obtaining these approvals and the subsequent substantial compliance with appropriate federal and state statutes and regulations require the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources.

Pre-clinical studies are generally conducted in laboratory animals to evaluate the potential safety and the efficacy of a product. Drug developers submit the results of pre-clinical studies to the FDA as a part of an investigative new drug application (IND), which must be approved before clinical trials in humans may begin. Typically, clinical evaluation involves a time consuming and costly three-phase process.

Phase I

          Clinical trials are conducted with a small number of subjects to determine the early safety profile, maximum tolerated dose and pharmacokinetics of the product in human volunteers.Phase II

          Clinical trials are conducted with groups of patients afflicted with a specific disease in order to determine preliminary efficacy, optimal dosages and expanded evidence of safety.Phase III

          Large scale, multi-center, comparative trials are conducted with patients afflicted with a target disease in order to provide enough data to demonstrate with substantial evidence the efficacy and safety required by the FDA.The FDA monitors the progress of clinical trials that are conducted in the United States and may, at its discretion, re-evaluate, alter, suspend or terminate the testing based upon the data accumulated to that point and the FDAs assessment of the risk/benefit ratio to the patient.

Once Phase III trials are completed, drug developers submit the results of pre-clinical studies and clinical trials to the FDA in the form of a new drug application (NDA) or a biologics licensing application (BLA) for approval to commence commercial sales. Currently, all current and planned drug candidates containing FGF-1are designated as biologics and will be required to file a BLA, which has, as one of its approval components, an FDA inspection of the manufacturing facility producing the biologic. Following review of the clinical data and the facility inspection, the FDA may grant marketing approval, request additional information or deny the
application if the FDA determines that the application does not meet regulatory approval criteria. Furthermore, the FDA may prevent a drug developer from marketing a product under a label for its desired

16

TABLE OF CONTENTS

indications, which may impair commercialization of the product. Similar regulatory procedures must also be complied with in countries outside the United States.

If the FDA approves an NDA or BLA, the product becomes available for physicians to prescribe in the United States. Once approval for marketing has been granted, the FDA encourages health professionals to report significant adverse events. The FDA may request additional clinical studies, known as Phase IV, to evaluate product safety effects.

In addition to studies required by the FDA after approval, a drug developer may conduct other trials and studies to explore use of the approved compound for treatment of new indications. The purpose of these trials and studies and related publications is to broaden the application and use of the drug and its acceptance in the medical community.

Approvals Outside the United States

The Company will have to complete an approval process similar to that, in the United States, in virtually every foreign target market for its products in order to commercialize the product candidates in those countries. The approval procedure and the time required for approval vary from country to country and may involve additional testing. Foreign approvals may not be granted on a timely basis, or at all. In addition, regulatory approval of prices is required in most countries other than the United States. The Company faces the risk that the resulting prices would be insufficient to generate an acceptable return.

10 Year Market Protection for Innovative Biologics in the EU

Innovative medicinal products that have been authorized in the European Union in accordance with the Community Code on Medicinal Products (Directive 2001/83/EC as amended by Directive 2004/27/EC) benefit from a period of 10 years market protection. The 10-year market protection period means that generic products or biosimilar products authorized according to the centralized procedure cannot be placed on the market until 10 years have elapsed from the initial marketing authorization of the innovative reference product. This may be extended by one year, for a total of 11 years, if, during the first eight years following authorization, the
marketing authorization holder is granted an authorization for one or more new therapeutic indications for the medicinal product which are considered to bring a significant clinical benefit in comparison with existing therapies. Where appropriate, the Company intends to take advantage of this opportunity.

Fast Track Designations

Congress enacted the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997, in part, to ensure the timely availability of safe and effective drugs, biologics and medical devices by expediting the FDA review process for new products. The Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act establishes a statutory program for the approval of so-called fast track products. The new law defines a fast track product as a new drug or biologic intended for the treatment of a serious or life-threatening condition that demonstrates the potential to address unmet medical needs for such a condition. Under the new fast track program, the sponsor of a new drug or
biologic may request the FDA to designate the drug or biologic as a fast track product at any time during clinical development of the product. Fast track designation provides an expedited review of a product, which accelerates FDA review.

Orphan Drug Designation

The FDA may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting a new drug application. After the FDA grants orphan drug designation, the generic identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are disclosed publicly by the FDA. Orphan drug designation does not convey any advantage in, or shorten the duration of, the regulatory review and approval process. If a product that has orphan drug designation subsequently receives
FDA approval for the indication for which it has orphan drug designation, the product is entitled to orphan exclusivity, which means the FDA may not approve any other applications to market the same drug for the same indication except in very limited circumstances, for seven years. Where appropriate, the Company intends to avail ourselves of this opportunity.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risks Related to the Company

The Company has a History of Losses and Expects to Incur Substantial Losses and Negative Operating Cash Flows for the Foreseeable Future, and the Company May Never Achieve or Maintain Profitability.

Since the Companys inception, it incurred significant net losses. As a result of ongoing operating losses, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $70.7 million as of December 31, 2007. The Company is not currently profitable. Even if the Company succeeds in developing and commercializing its drug candidates, the Company expects to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. The Company also expects to incur significant capital expenditures and anticipates that its expenses will increase substantially in the foreseeable future as the Company:



          seeks regulatory approvals for its new drug candidates.

          develop, formulate, manufacture and commercialize its new drug candidates.

          implement additional internal systems and infrastructure.

          hire additional clinical, scientific, administrative, sales and marketing personnel.The Company also expects to experience negative cash flow for the foreseeable future as it funds the operating losses and capital expenditures. As a result, the Company will need to generate significant revenues to achieve and maintain profitability. The Company does not expect to generate revenues unless one of its drug candidates is approved and may not be able to generate these revenues even if one is approved. The Company may never achieve profitability in the future.

At December 31, 2007, the Company has approximately $310,000 in cash and cash equivalents; and $60,000 in restricted cash. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued unsecured demand notes to investors in exchange for gross proceeds of $1,575,000 and net proceeds of $1,533,000 in cash; and another $160,000 of unsecured demand notes to principal officers. Along with the notes sold to investors, the Company also sold 1,400,000 warrants with an exercise price of $1.00 for a term of five (5) years. The Company incurred $42,000 in commission expense in connection with the sale of these demand notes.

On March 18, 2008, the Company began a Private Placement of debt in an effort to raise up to $15,000,000 in promissory notes that mature within 18 months from the date of issuance. The notes are unsecured and serve as consideration for the issuance of warrants issued in conjunction with the notes. As of April 1, 2008, the Company has received gross proceeds of $200,000.

On May 21, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 15,000,000 of common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share in connection with Private Placement to the investor and certain other subscribers pursuant to a subscription agreement. As of December 31, 2007, the Company issued 3,650,000 shares. The Company received gross proceeds in the amount of $3,650,000 and net proceeds in the amount of $3,285,000 towards completion of the Private Placement. Subsequent to December 31, 2007, the Company received an additional gross proceeds in the amount of $725,000 and $682,500 net proceeds. The agreement with the placing agent, as amended,
terminated on January 31, 2008.

On March 20, 2006, the Company completed the sale of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and related detached warrants for net proceeds of $18,447,000. The Company believes that it would be necessary to raise additional funds to maintain the current level of activity. There can be no assurance that sufficient funds, required during the next year or thereafter, will be generated from operations or that funds will be available

from external sources such as debt or equity financing or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on the business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Companys existing stockholders.

The Audit Opinion of the Companys Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm May Adversely Affect the Stock Price and/or Ability to Raise Additional Capital.

The Companys independent registered public accounting firm has expressed an opinion on the Companys financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 that contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern due to reoccurring negative cash flows from operations, significant debt and limited working capital.

If the company Continues to Incur Operating Losses for a Period Longer Than it Anticipates, the Company will be Unable to Advance Its Development Program and Complete the Clinical Trials.

Developing a new product and conducting clinical trials for multiple disease indications is expensive. The Company expects that it will fund its working capital requirements on research and development, selling, general and administrative expenses and capital expenditures with its current resources, the net proceeds of the financing the Company completed in March 2006. The Company may need to raise additional capital sooner, however, due to a number of factors, including:



          an acceleration of the number, size or complexity of the clinical trials;

          undertaking patient processing in clinical trials which are not currently considered;

          slower than expected progress in developing the drug candidates;

          higher than expected costs to obtain regulatory approvals;

          higher than expected costs to develop or protect the Companys intellectual property; and

          higher than expected costs to develop the sales and marketing capability.If a Triggering Event Should Occur that Would Require the Company to Pay Off the Convertible Notes, the Company May Need Additional Financing to Complete the Business Plan in a Timely Manner. Such Financing Might Not be Available, or if Available, the Terms Might not be Satisfactory.

On March 20, 2006, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with accredited investors for the issue of an aggregate of $20,000,000 principal amount of convertible notes with offering costs of $1,553,000 representing approximately 7.8% of the principal amount. In connection with the closing of the sale of the notes, the Company received net proceeds of $18,447,000. The convertible notes are presently convertible at the holders option into 1,666,666 shares of common stock. The common stock was based on a fixed conversion price of $12.00 per share. The conversion price of $12.00 per share was valid until the price re-set as of May
21, 2007 at $1.00 per share (the Fixed Conversion Price) subject to anti-dilution and other customary adjustments. However, the notes are convertible at 94% of the average of the preceding five days' weighted average trading price, if the result is lower than $12 per share. Conversion of the senior secured notes into the Companys common stock at other than the Fixed Conversion Price is limited to no more than 10% of the original $20,000,000 note balance per month. The notes mature in March 2009, and bear a resetting floating interest rate of three months LIBOR plus 7%. Substantially all of the Companys assets secure the notes. The Company will incur certain penalties if it fails to file, obtain and maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the Securities, such as cash payments to the note holders calculated under formulas based on the principal amount of the notes and aggregate exercise price of the warrants. The Company may also incur cash
damages if it fails to issue and deliver certificates of common stock in a timely manner upon receipt of a notice from a note holder to convert all or a portion of the note holder's note. The Company may also be required to redeem all or a portion of the principal amount of a note in the event a conversion fails. Under certain triggering events, the Company may be required to redeem all or a portion of the principal amount of a note in the sum of 120% of the principal plus applicable interest. Examples of

19

TABLE OF CONTENTS

triggering events are: (i) delisting of the Companys securities; (ii) failure of a registration statement to be filed; (iii) failure of a registration statement to become effective; and (iv) other triggering events. Other terms and conditions that are material to the Company are: (i) after a triggering event, the holder of a note has the option to require the Company to pay a redemption price at the option of a note holder, (ii) a redemption in the event of a change in control at the option of a note holder, (iii) certain events of default, and (iv) the acceleration of payment of a note upon the occurrence of an event of default.

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 705,882 shares of its common stock. On May 21, 2007, the aggregate number of shares acquirable upon exercise of such warrants increased to 5,999,997. The term of the warrants is three years and they may be exercised at any time up to March 2009. The warrant exercise price was $8.50 per share until the price re-set as of May 21, 2007 at $1.00 per share.

If the Company was unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the senior secured notes and warrants, the results could be a negative and significant impact on the Companys liquidity, as well as a potential change of control of the Company.

In the Future, the Company May not be Able to Raise Additional Necessary Capital on Favorable Terms, if at All.

The Company does not know whether additional financing will be available when needed or on terms favorable to the Company or its stockholders. The Company may raise any necessary funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or additional corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. To the extent, the Company raises additional capital by issuing equity securities stockholders will experience dilution. If the Company raises funds through debt financings, the Company may become subject to restrictive covenants. The Companys recent debt financing is secured by all of its assets. To the extent that the Company raises
additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, the Company may be required to relinquish some rights to its technologies or product candidates, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to the Company.

FGF-1141 is Currently the Only Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient in All of The Companys Drug Products. Because the Development of FGF-1141 is Subject to a Substantial Degree of Technological Uncertainty, the Company May not Succeed in Developing it.

Unlike many pharmaceutical companies that have a number of products in development and that utilize many technologies, the Company is dependent on its basic drug technology for the success of the Company. While the Companys core technology has a number of potentially beneficial uses, if that core technology is not commercially viable, the Company currently does not have others to fall back on, and the business will fail.

The Companys new drug candidates are still in research and development, and the Company does not expect them to be commercially available for the foreseeable future, if at all. Only a small number of research and development programs ultimately result in commercially successful drugs. Potential products that appear to be promising at early stages of development may not reach the market for a number of reasons. These reasons include the possibility that the potential products may:



          be found ineffective or cause harmful side effects during pre-clinical studies or clinical trials;

          fail to receive necessary regulatory approvals;

          be precluded from commercialization by proprietary rights of third parties;

          be difficult to manufacture on a large scale; or

          be uneconomical or fail to achieve market acceptance.If any of these potential problems occurs, the Company may never successfully market products.

The Company May not Receive Regulatory Approvals for Its New Drug Candidates.

Regulation by government authorities in the United States and foreign countries is a significant factor in the development, manufacture and marketing of the Companys new drug candidates and in ongoing research

20

TABLE OF CONTENTS

and product development activities. The Companys new drug candidates are still in research and development and the Company has not yet requested or received regulatory approval to commercialize any of them from the FDA or any other regulatory body. The process of obtaining these approvals and the subsequent substantial compliance with appropriate federal and state statutes and regulations require spending substantial time and financial resources. If the Company fails to obtain or encounter delays in obtaining or maintaining regulatory approvals, it could adversely affect the marketing of one or all of the Companys new drug candidates, as
well as its liquidity and capital resources.

In particular, human therapeutic products are subject to rigorous pre-clinical testing and clinical trials and other approval procedures of the FDA and similar regulatory authorities in foreign countries. Various federal and state statutes and regulations also govern or influence testing, manufacturing, safety, labeling, storage and record keeping related to these products and their marketing. Any delay in, or suspension of, the Companys clinical trials will delay the filing of its applications with the FDA to market the drug in the United States and, ultimately, the Companys ability to commercialize its new drug candidates and generate
product revenues.

In connection with the Companys clinical trials, it faces the risks that:



          the Company or the FDA may suspend the trials;

          the Company may discover that one or more of its drug candidates may cause harmful side effects;

          the results may not replicate the results of earlier, smaller trials;

          the results may not be statistically significant;

          patient recruitment may be slower than the Company expected;

          patients may drop out of the trials;

          patients may die during the trials, even though treatment with the Companys new drug candidates may not have caused those deaths; and

          the Company may not be able to produce sufficient quantities of its drug candidates to complete the trials.The Company May Encounter Delays or Difficulties in Its Clinical Trials, Which may Delay or Preclude Regulatory Approval of Its Drug Candidates.

In order to commercialize the Companys new drug candidates for coronary heart disease treatment and as a wound healing agent, the Company must obtain regulatory approvals for that use. Satisfaction of regulatory requirements typically takes many years, is expensive and involves compliance with requirements covering research and development, testing, manufacturing, quality control, labeling and promotion of drugs for human use. To obtain regulatory approvals the Company must complete, among other requirements, clinical trials demonstrating that each drug candidate is safe and effective for a particular disease treatment.

The Company has completed treatment of all patients in the Phase I clinical trials of its drug candidate CVBT-141A and the FDA has authorized a Phase II trial for this compound. The Company has also completed a Phase I study in diabetic wound healing, which began in the second half of 2006. Ongoing or future clinical trials may demonstrate that new drug candidates are neither safe nor effective.

The Company may encounter delays or rejections in the regulatory approval process because of additional government regulation (FDA or otherwise) during the period of product development, clinical trials and FDA regulatory review. Such delays or rejections may be caused by failure to comply with applicable penalties, recall or seizure of any approved products, total or partial suspension of production or injunction, as well as other regulatory action against the Companys drug candidates or the Company.

Outside the United States, the Companys ability to market a product is contingent upon receiving clearances from the appropriate regulatory authorities in the various foreign jurisdictions. These foreign regulatory approval processes each include all of the risks associated with FDA clearance described above.

Failure to Retain and Recruit Qualified Scientists will Delay the Companys Development Efforts.

As of April 2008, the Company had four scientists on staff, including its lead scientists: Chief Operations Officer and Chief Scientific Officer, John W. Jacobs, Ph.D., Vice President of Research and Development, Kenneth A. Thomas, Ph.D., and Co-President and Chief Medical Officer, Thomas J. Stegmann, M.D., PhD. The loss of any of the Companys lead scientists could impede the achievement of its development objectives.

Furthermore, recruiting and retaining qualified scientific personnel to perform research and development work in the future will also be critical to the Companys success. The Company may be unable to attract or retain qualified scientific personnel on acceptable terms given the competition among biotechnology, pharmaceutical and healthcare companies, universities and non-profit research institutions for experienced scientists.

If Any of the Companys Key Executives Discontinue Their Employment with the Company, Its Efforts to Develop the Business May be Delayed.

The Company is highly dependent on the principal members of its management team and the loss of its Chairman, Co-President and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel C. Montano, or of the Co-President and Chief Medical Officer, Thomas J. Stegmann, M.D., PhD or of the Chief Financial Officer, Mickael A. Flaa, or of the Chief Operating Officer, John W. Jacobs, could impede the achievement of the Companys development efforts and objectives.

Prior Activities of the Companys Chief Executive Officer, as Well as Certain Conflicts of Interest that he has, May Increase the Risks of an Investment in the Company.

Daniel C. Montano, the Companys Chairman of the Board, Co-President, Chief Executive Officer and the owner of 20.55% of the voting control of the Company as of December 31, 2007, was engaged in the securities, investment banking and venture capital business for approximately 30 years ending in 1998. During that time, Mr. Montano or the firms he controlled were the subject of arbitrations, fines, disciplinary actions and sanctions imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD), including a cease and desist order the SEC entered in 1992. The order required that Mr. Montano
permanently cease and desist from continuing and causing any further material misrepresentations and/or omitting to state material facts in the offer or sale of a security. All administrative action was concluded on those matters over five years ago based on events occurring several years before.

The clinical trials of the Companys product under the regulations of the FDA have not been affected by Mr. Montanos prior regulatory issues, and the Company does not expect them to be. However, to the extent, the Company seeks approval from other regulatory agencies in the future, Mr. Montanos past activities may cause closer examination by such agencies, which could affect the outcome of the approval process or the timing and expense involved. In addition, the Companys ability to establish other business relationships may be delayed or adversely affected.

In addition, as set forth in the following two risk factors, Mr. Montano has substantial potential conflicts of interest due to his position as Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer and significant stockholder of Phage, the Companys affiliate that manufactures all of its drug candidates for the Company.

There can be no assurance that Mr. Montanos past history in the investment banking industry or his potential conflicts of interest will not have a negative effect on the Company or on his ability to serve the Company.

The Companys Key Executives Devote Less Than all of Their Business Time to the Company.

The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Co-President, Daniel C. Montano, along with Chief Financial Officer and Vice President, Mickael A. Flaa, and Chief Scientific Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Vice President, John W. Jacobs, devote a sufficient amount of their business time to discharge 100% of their duties, and also devote time to an affiliated company which does business with the Company and the balance of their time on other affairs. The Company does not have employment agreements with its executive officers or key employees. See the following Risk Factor about potential conflicts of interest.

22

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Companys Relationship with Phage Biotechnology Corporation, and the Relationship of Its Key Executives to Phage, Creates Potential for Conflicts of Interest.

The Company has a number of relationships with Phage, an affiliated company, which may create conflicts of interest. Pursuant to a joint ownership and license agreement with Phage, subject to certain contractual commitments, the Company owns a one-half undivided interest in the U.S. and foreign patents and patent applications necessary to develop and commercialize the new drug candidates in which FGF-1141 is the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). The Company has entered this agreement to protect its ability to obtain patent protection on processes developed in conjunction with Phage, which processes might be useful to
Phage in other unrelated products. Pursuant to that agreement, the Company also has an exclusive license to develop and commercialize new drug candidates with FGF-1141 as the API. Phage provides technical development services to the Company and currently is the sole supplier of FGF-1141. In addition to FGF-1141, Phage is currently in the process of developing other drug products that are not expected to have any relation to the Companys proposed product or business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the agreements precludes Phage from participating in activities competitive with the Company.

Daniel C. Montano beneficially owns approximately 20.55% of the Companys outstanding voting stock. Mr. Montano also owns 18.8% of the outstanding voting stock of Phage. He is the Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Phage as well as Co-President of the Company. In addition, the Company owns 4.3% of Phages outstanding common stock.

Additionally, certain Company officers and directors (including Daniel C. Montano, Mickael Flaa, Dr. John Jacobs, Grant Gordon, Joong Ki Baik and Thomas Ingram) beneficially own or hold voting control over an aggregate of 29.3% of Phages outstanding common stock. Daniel C. Montano and Grant Gordon are among certain signatories to a Phage Controlling Stockholders Agreement that provides for an agreement to vote together.

Mr. Montano devotes as much time as necessary to the Companys affairs, and devotes time as necessary to Phages affairs and the balance to other investment interests.

John W. (Jack) Jacobs is the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Scientific Officer and serves in the same positions with Phage. He joined the Companys board of directors upon the closing of its IPO. He devotes as much time as necessary to the Companys affairs, and devotes time as necessary to Phages affairs and the balance to other investment interests.

Mickael A. Flaa is the Companys Chief Financial Officer and serves the same role with Phage and CPI. He joined the board of directors upon the closing of the Companys IPO. He devotes as much time as necessary to the Companys affairs, devotes as much time as necessary to CPIs affairs and devotes time as necessary to Phages affairs and the balance to other investment interests.

Such individuals owe a fiduciary duty of loyalty to the Company. They also owe similar fiduciary duties to Phage and CPI. However, due to their responsibilities to serve these companies, there is potential for conflicts of interest. At any particular time, the needs of Phage and/or CPI could cause one or more of these executive officers to devote such attention at the expense of devoting attention to the Company. In addition, matters may arise that place the fiduciary duties of these individuals in conflicting positions. Such conflicts will be resolved by the Companys Conflicts Resolution Committee, comprised of independent directors and
directors having no affiliation with Phage or CPI. If this occurs, matters important to the Company could be delayed. The results of such delays are not susceptible to accurate predictions but could include, among other things, delay in the production of sufficient amounts of the Companys drug candidates to complete its clinical trials on the Companys preferred timetable or to meet potential commercial demands if the clinical trials are successful and the Company receives FDA approval to sell the drug in the U.S. Such delays potentially could increase the Companys costs of development or reduce its ability to generate revenue. The Companys officers will use every effort to avoid material conflicts of interest generated by their responsibilities to Phage and CPI, but no assurance can be given that material conflicts will not arise that could be detrimental to the Companys operations and financial prospects.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Companys Chairman, Co-President and CEO is a Guarantor of its Obligation Under the Companys Senior Secured Notes and Warrants and Private Placement of Notes and Warrants.

On March 20, 2006, Daniel C. Montano, the Companys Chairman, Co-President and CEO, entered into a Guaranty Agreement whereby he guaranteed all of the Companys obligations resulting from the sale on March 20, 2006 of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and warrants. The guaranty remains in effect the first date on which the Company receives revenue from the sale of drugs in which FGF-1141 is the active pharmaceutical ingredient after the FDA approves such drugs, provided that on such date the Company is not in default of any provisions of the obligations or triggering events contained in the agreements for the senior secured
notes and warrants and such default is not continuing. However, the guaranty will terminate upon the payment in full of the notes including conversion of the notes into the Companys common stock.

After the Companys obligations contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants have been paid in full, if Daniel C. Montano was required to make any payments pursuant to this guaranty prior to the payment in full of the Companys obligations, the Company will reimburse Daniel C. Montano for any such payments plus simple interest at 7% per annum from the date of the advance by Daniel C. Montano to the date reimbursed by the Company.

On March 18, 2008, the Company began a Private Placement of debt and warrants in an effort to raise up to $15,000,000 in promissory notes that mature within 18 months from the date of issuance. The notes are unsecured and serve as consideration for the issuance of warrants issued in conjunction with the notes. As of April 1, 2008, the Company has received gross proceeds of $200,000 for which Daniel C. Montano has guarantee repayment pursuant to the terms of the note.

Daniel C. Montano owes a fiduciary duty of loyalty to the Company. However, there is potential for conflicts of interest between Daniel C. Montanos personal interests and the Companys, whether Daniel C. Montanos guaranties are called upon or not. No assurance can be given that material conflicts will not arise that could be detrimental to the Companys operations and financial prospects.

The Company has no Marketing Experience, Sales Force or Distribution Capabilities. If the Companys Products are Approved, and the Company is Unable to Recruit Key Personnel to Perform these Functions, the Company May not be Able to Commercialize them Successfully.

Although the Company does not currently have any marketable products, the Companys ability to produce revenues ultimately depends on its ability to sell the products, if and when, they are approved by the FDA. The Company currently has no experience in marketing or selling pharmaceutical products and it does not have a sales staff or distribution capabilities. If the Company fails to establish successful marketing and sales capabilities or fails to enter into successful arrangements with third parties, its ability to generate revenues will suffer.

The Company Does Not Have Manufacturing Capability. The Company Relies on only one Supplier, which is an Affiliate for the Companys Bulk Drug Product. Any Problems Experienced by Such Supplier could Negatively Affect the Companys Operations.

The Company has entered into an agreement with its affiliate, Phage, to manufacture the Companys drug candidates containing FGF-1141 and to supply it to the Company. The Company is currently exploring a back-up contract manufacturing source for its drug candidates, but to date have not concluded any supply contracts. The agreement with Phage expires August 15, 2021, unless the Company co-develops additional patents and then the agreement will expire on the date of the last patent to expire. Any significant problem that Phage or one of Phages suppliers experiences could result in a delay or interruption in the supply of
materials to the Company until that supplier cures the problem or until the Company locates an alternative supply. Any delay or interruption would likely lead to a delay or interruption in the production of the Companys drug candidates and could negatively affect the operations. In addition, as part of the drug approval process, the FDA will inspect Phage prior to approval of the drug. If the Company obtains FDA approval for drug candidates in which FGF-1141 is the API, Phage will be required to use a facility that the FDA certifies as in compliance with good manufacturing practices, or GMP, in order to manufacture the drug for use in commercial quantities. Any delay in obtaining such approval could delay the distribution of the Companys drug candidates and thus negatively affect its ability to generate revenues.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Governmental and Third Party Payers May Subject Any Products the Company Develops to Sales and Pharmaceutical Pricing Controls that Could Limit its Product Revenues and Delay Profitability.

The continuing efforts of government and third party payers to contain or reduce the costs of healthcare through various means may reduce the Companys potential revenues. These payers efforts could decrease the price that the Company receives for any products it may develop and sell in the future. In addition, third-party insurance coverage may not be available to patients for any products the Company develops. If government and third party payers do not provide adequate coverage and reimbursement levels for the Companys products, or if price controls are enacted, its ability to generate revenues will suffer.

Potential customers for the Companys drug products are based in several countries. When, and if, the Company is able to commence sales of its drug products, results of operations could be significantly affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange rate exposures are anticipated to arise from transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and from the translation of foreign currency balance sheet accounts into U.S. dollar balance sheet accounts. The Company expects to be exposed to currency exchange rate fluctuations because many of the revenues will be denominated in currencies other than
the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely affect the Companys operating results and results of operations.

The Company expects to derive its revenues from operations in many jurisdictions. Accordingly, the Company will be exposed to all of the risks of international operations, including increased governmental regulation of the pharmaceutical industry in the markets where the Company plans to operate; exchange controls or other currency restrictions; and significant political instability. The occurrence of any of these events in the markets where the Company operates could jeopardize or limit its ability to transact business in those markets and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results and prospects.

If Physicians and Patients do Not Accept Products for Which the Company Obtains Marketing Approval, the Company May Not Recover Its Investment.

If the FDA approves the Companys products for marketing, their commercial success will depend upon the medical community and patients accepting its products as being safe and effective. A number of factors could affect the market acceptance of the Companys products, including:



          the timing and receipt of marketing approvals;

          the safety and efficacy of the products;

          the emergence of equivalent or superior products;

          the cost-effectiveness of the products; and

          effective marketing.The Companys profitability will depend on the markets acceptance of its products at profitable prices, which may depend upon the agreement of third party payers to reimburse. If the medical community and patients do not ultimately accept any products developed by the Company as being safe and effective, as well as cost effective, The Company may not recover its investment, and the business may fail.

If the Company Fails to Adequately Protect Its Intellectual Property Rights, Its Competitors May be Able to Take Advantage of the Companys Research and Development Efforts to Develop Competing Drugs.

Fibroblast growth factor 1, or FGF-1141, and derivatives are powerful stimulators of new blood vessel growth. The Companys intellectual property rights cover certain methods of manufacturing and using these forms, but do not cover the primary structure of FGF-1141. Patent coverage over the structure of FGF-1141 has expired. There are other ways to manufacture FGF-1141 not covered by the Companys patents. Consequently, the Company may not prevent others from manufacturing FGF-1141by a different technology. Moreover, other uses of FGF-1141 are not covered by the
Companys existing patents.

25

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Companys commercial success will depend in part on its success in obtaining patent protection for its key products or processes. The Companys patent position, like that of other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, is highly uncertain. One uncertainty is that the United States Patent and Trademark Office, or PTO, may deny or require significant narrowing of claims made under the Companys patent applications.

The unpredictability of the biotechnological sciences, the PTO and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often required that patent claims reciting biotechnology-related inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover only the specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting their scope of protection. Further, technology that is disclosed in patent applications is ordinarily published before it is patented. As a result, if the Company is not able to get patent protection, the Company will not be able to protect that technology through trade secret protection. Thus, if the Company fails to obtain patents
having sufficient claim scope or fails to adequately protect its trade secrets, the Company may not be able to exclude competitors from using its products or processes.

Even if the PTO grants patents with commercially valuable claim scope, the Companys ability to exclude competitors will subsequently depend on its successful assertion of these patents against third party infringers and the Companys successful defense of these patents against possible validity challenges. The Companys competitors, many of which have substantial resources and have made significant investments in competing technologies, may make, use or sell the Companys proprietary products or processes despite its intellectual property. Litigation may be necessary to enforce the Companys issued patents or protect its
trade secrets. The prosecution of intellectual property lawsuits is costly and time-consuming, and the outcome of such lawsuits is uncertain. This is particularly true for the Companys patents, since the courts often consider these technologies to involve unpredictable sciences. An adverse determination in litigation could result in narrowing of the Companys scope of protection or the loss of its intellectual property, thereby allowing competitors to design around or make use of the intellectual property and sell the Companys products in some or all markets. Thus, if any of the Companys patents are invalidated or narrowed in litigation, the Company may not be able to exclude its competitors from using its technologies.

Another risk regarding the Companys ability to exclude competitors is that the Companys issued patents or pending applications could be lost or narrowed if competitors, with overlapping technologies, provoke an interference proceeding (determination of first to invent) at the PTO. The defense and prosecution of interference proceedings are costly and time-consuming to pursue and their outcomes are uncertain. Similarly, a third party may challenge the validity of one or more of the Companys issued patents by presenting evidence of prior publications to the PTO and requesting reexamination of such patent(s). Thus, even if
the Company is able to obtain patents that cover commercially significant innovations, one or more of its patents may be lost or substantially narrowed by the PTO through an interference or reexamination proceeding. Consequently, the Company may not be able to exclude its competitors from using its technologies.

The Company has entered into a Joint Patent Agreement with Phage pertaining to the intellectual property centered on the manufacturing process for the Companys drug candidates. Under that Agreement, both Phage and the Company own the patents to the intellectual property covered by it and cross-licensed to each other the rights to use those patents in certain fields. Included in the Agreement, with the advice of counsel and with the intent to safeguard intellectual property in the event of insolvency; and in the event that Phage filed for protection under U.S. bankruptcy laws or was forced into bankruptcy by creditors, the Company could be
adversely affected. The risks associated with a Phage bankruptcy include:

(1)

          Phage or its bankruptcy trustee could sell Phages or the Companys ownership interests in the patents or Phages or the Companys license to the patent rights to a third party, free and clear of the Companys interests;(2)

          Phage or its bankruptcy trustee could assume and assign its ownership interests in the patents or license to the patent rights to a third party, over the Companys objections; and(3)

          The bankruptcy court could find that Phages grant of a security interest to the Company was a preferential or fraudulent transfer, resulting in invalidation of the Companys security interest.

26

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Any of the foregoing risks would adversely affect the Companys ownership in the patents and/or right to use the patent rights covered by the Agreement, and the business plan and revenue expectations with respect to manufacture of the Companys drug candidates.

Third Party Patents, or Extensions of Third Party Patents Beyond Their Normal Expiration Dates, Could Prevent the Company from Making, Using or Selling Its Preferred Products and Processes, or Require the Company to take License(s), or Require the Company to Defend Against Claims of Patent Infringement.

The Company may have a limited opportunity to operate freely. The Companys commercial success will depend in part on its freedom to make, use and sell certain of its preferred drug products and processes. If third party patents have claims that cover any of these products or processes, then the Company will not be free to operate as described in its business plan, without invalidating or obtaining license(s) to such patents. The Company may not be successful in identifying and invalidating prior claims of invention. Similarly, a license may be unavailable or prohibitively expensive. In either case, the Company may have to redesign its products
or processes. Such redesign efforts may take significant time and money, and such redesign efforts may fail to yield scientifically, clinically or commercially feasible options. If the Company is unable to develop products or processes that lie outside the scope of the third partys patent claims, and it continues to operate, then the Company may face claims of patent infringement, wherein the third party may seek to enjoin the Company from continuing to operate within its claim scope and seek monetary compensation for commercial damages resulting from the Companys infringing activity.

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries have been characterized by extensive patent litigation, and companies have deployed intellectual property litigation to gain a competitive advantage.

The defense of patent infringement suits is costly and time-consuming and outcomes are uncertain. An adverse determination in litigation could subject the Company to significant liabilities, require the Company to obtain licenses from third parties, or restrict or prevent the Company from selling its products in certain markets. Although patent and intellectual property disputes are often settled through licensing or similar arrangements, costs associated with such arrangements may be substantial and could include ongoing royalties. Furthermore, the necessary licenses may not be available to the Company on satisfactory terms, if at all. Thus, as
discussed above, if third party patents cover any aspect of the Companys products or processes, then the Company may lack freedom to operate in accordance with its business plan. Among such patents are various patents owned by third parties that cover the manufacture, sale and use of various forms of FGF-1141.

Though the Companys patents, patent applications and intellectual property rights may give the Company a competitive advantage, such rights do not give the Company a monopoly over all types of FGF or ways to make it or use it. The Company is aware of others developing technologies to induce angiogenesis or wound healing. The Company is also aware of patents and applications of others relating to FGF. There are many companies within the biopharmaceutical industry filing patents and some companies pursue allegations of patent infringement. The Company is not aware of any patents or applications of others that the Company believes its activities
fall within. No patents have been asserted against the Company but that does not exclude the possibility in the future, with the consequential uncertainty and cost. A finding of patent infringement and an order of a court restraining aspects of the Companys activity could have a materially adverse impact on the Company.

The Company is not aware of activities of others that fall within the scope of its patents, however, if the Company were to become aware of such activities it might be necessary to expend the time and money pursuing patent litigation to stop it and preserve the Companys competitive advantage. The Company is not aware of any reason why its granted patents should be found invalid but that does not preclude others challenging them with the risk that they are revoked.

The Company has an undivided half interest with Phage in the patents and patent applications and an exclusive license from Phage of the Companys interest, pursuant to an agreement dated August 16, 2004, which was later amended and restated May 23, 2006, then superseded by a new agreement dated February 28, 2007. This position has not yet been recorded at all national patent offices. The Company is working with its international patent specialist to have national patent office registers updated to show the ownership and license arrangements and any other interests in the patents and applications that can be registered by the Company, or which it
is obliged to register on behalf of others. While this will be implemented in a timely

27

TABLE OF CONTENTS

fashion, the time it takes to record changes varies from one national patent office to another and in some cases can take a number of months. Phage will assist the Company as required in updating the patent registers and Phage has warranted and undertaken that no agreements will be entered into by Phage with third parties without putting such third parties on express notice of the Companys patent rights and interests and further, such third parties will be required by Phage to acknowledge in any agreement the Companys patent rights and interests and be subject to them.

The Company May be Subject to Claims That the Company or Its Employees have Wrongfully Used or Disclosed Alleged Trade Secrets of Former Employers.

As is commonplace in the biotechnology industry, the Company employs now, and may hire in the future, individuals who were previously employed at other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies, including competitors or potential competitors. Although there are no claims currently pending against the Company, it may be subject to claims that the Company or certain employees have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. Even if the Company is successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in
substantial costs and would be a significant distraction to management.

If Product Liability Lawsuits are Successfully Brought Against the COMPANY, the Company May Incur Substantial Damages and Demand for the Potential Products May be Eliminated or Reduced.

The testing and marketing of medical products is subject to an inherent risk of product liability claims. Regardless of their merit or eventual outcome, product liability claims may result in:



          decreased demand for the Companys products or withdrawal of its products from the market even if previously approved;

          injury to the Companys reputation and significant media attention;

          withdrawal of clinical trial volunteers;

          costs of litigation; and

          substantial monetary awards to plaintiffs.The Company currently maintains product liability insurance specifically issued for the clinical trials in progress with coverage of $3,000,000. This coverage may not be sufficient to fully protect the Company against product liability claims. The Company intends to expand its product liability insurance coverage to include the sale of commercial products if the Company obtains marketing approval for any of its product candidates. The Companys inability to obtain sufficient product liability insurance at an acceptable cost to protect against product liability claims could prevent or limit the commercialization of the Companys products and
expose it to liability in excess of the Companys coverage.

Competition and Technological Change May Make the Companys Potential Product and Technology Less Attractive or Obsolete.

The Company competes with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the diseases the Companys new drug candidates target. All potential competitors that the Company knows about are working on gene therapies. For example, GenVec, Inc. is working on a gene therapy drug that has been introduced into the hearts of patients. Boston Scientific Corporation and Corautus Genetics, Inc. are working together to develop a gene therapy to treat coronary artery disease via a catheter. No efficacy results of either of these projects have been made public, however in March 2006, the FDA placed the clinical
trial of Boston Scientific Corporation and Corautus Genetics, Inc. on hold due to reported serious adverse events and lack of efficacy. The Company also may face competition from companies that may develop internally or acquire competing technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may develop competitive positions that may prevent or limit the Companys product commercialization efforts.

Some of the Companys competitors have more resources than the Company has and are established companies with greater financial, scientific and marketing resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than the Company does, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly than the

28

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Company does or developing products that are more effective than the Companys product candidates. Research and development by others may render the Companys technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to any therapy the Company develops.

The Companys Common Stock has a Limited Trading History, and the Company Expects that the Price of Its Common Stock will Fluctuate Substantially.

The Companys common stock started trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) on March 10, 2005. Prior to then, there was no public market for shares of the Companys common stock. An active public trading market may not develop or, if developed, may not be sustained. The market prices for securities of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies historically have been highly volatile and the market, from time to time, has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. A number of factors may affect the market price of the Companys common stock
including, but not limited to the following:



          Regulatory or payer reimbursement developments in the United States or other countries;

          Product liability claims or other litigation;

          The announcement of new products or product enhancements by the Company or its competitors;

          Quarterly variations in the Company or its competitors results of operations;

          Changes in earnings estimates or comments by securities analysts;

          Developments in the Companys industry;

          The result of the Companys clinical trials;

          Developments in patent or other proprietary rights;

          General market conditions;

          Future sales of common stock by existing stockholders; and

          Public concern as to the safety of the Companys drugs.If any of the risks described in this Risk Factors section occurs, it could cause the Companys stock price to fall dramatically and may expose it to class action securities lawsuits, which, even if unsuccessful, would be costly to defend and a distraction to management.

The Company does not anticipate paying dividends for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, returns on a shareholders investment in the short to medium term will be limited to capital appreciation, if any, and the shareholders ability to realize any such returns may be limited by illiquidity in the trading market of the Companys common stock. The Companys results and financial condition are entirely dependent on its trading performance. The Companys ability to pay dividends will depend on its operations. The Company may from time to time be subject to restrictions on its ability to make distributions, as a result of
restrictive covenants contained within loan agreements, foreign exchange limitations and regulatory, fiscal and other restrictions. There can be no assurance that such restrictions will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys results or financial condition.

Conversion Into Common Stock of the Senior Secured Notes and Warrants that the Company sold in 2006 has Also Caused Substantial Dilution.

The Company completed the private placement of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes together with warrants to purchase 705,882 shares of the Companys common stock on March 20, 2006. The notes were convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at any time at $12 per share until the price re-set as of May 21, 2007 at $1.00 per share (the Fixed Conversion Price). In addition, the notes are convertible after five months from the closing date at 94% of the average of the preceding five days weighted average trading price, if the result is lower than $1.00 per share. Conversion of the senior secured notes into the
Companys common stock at other than the Fixed Conversion Price is limited to no more than 10% of the original $20,000,000 note balance per calendar month. The notes mature in March 2009. In connection with

29

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the notes, the Company also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 705,882 shares of its common stock. On May 21, 2007, the aggregate number of shares acquirable upon exercise of such warrants increased to 5,999,997 due to the price re-set. The term of the warrants is three years. The warrants may be exercised anytime up to March 2009. The warrant exercise price was $8.50 per share, until the price was re-set at $1.00 per share. The Companys stock price is subject to severe volatility. Accordingly, the conversion of the senior secured notes and the exercise of the warrants could result in substantial dilution to the existing shareholders.
As of December 31, 2007 the senior secured notes had been converted to $16,336,109 of common stock per the following table:

          The amount of $280,100 includes $239,247 interest paid for the third quarter in common stock of 497,710 during the fourth quarter.Exercise of the Warrants that the Company is Issuing in Conjunction With Its Private Placement of Promissory Notes Could also Cause Substantial Dilution.

On March 18, 2008 the Company began a Private Placement of debt and warrants in an effort to raise up to $15,000,000 in promissory notes that mature within 18 months from the date of issuance. The warrants are being issued at exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.50 per share. Each warrant grants the right to purchase a total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company, such that the aggregate exercise price of the particular warrant equals 100% to 150% of the amount invested under the note issued to that particular investor. The warrants are immediately vested and may be exercised for three to five years. As of April 1, 2008, the Company has
issued one immediately vested warrant to purchase 300,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.00 for five years. If the Private Placement reaches the full amount sought to be raised, it is possible the Company may issue warrants to purchase up to 22,500,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock over the next five years. The Companys stock price is subject to severe volatility. Accordingly, the exercise of the warrants could result in substantial dilution to the existing shareholders.

A Sale of a Substantial Number of Shares of the Companys Common Stock May Cause the Price of Its Common Stock to Decline.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of the Companys common stock in the public market could harm the market price of the Companys common stock. As of December 31, 2007, directors and officers and five percent (5%) shareholders hold 83,264,547 shares of the Companys common stock and may sell such shares at their discretion subject to certain volume limitations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Companys Principal Stockholders have Significant Voting Power and May Take Actions that May not be in the Best Interests of the Companys Other Stockholders.

The Companys officers, directors and principal stockholders together control approximately 55.5% of the Companys outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2007. These stockholders have signed an agreement to act together and will be able to control the Companys management and affairs in all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control and might adversely affect the market price of the Companys common stock. This concentration of ownership may not
be in the best interest of the Companys other stockholders.

Anti-takeover Provisions in Delaware Law Could Discourage a Takeover and May Prevent or Frustrate any Attempt by Stockholders to Change the Direction or the Companys Management.

The provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporate Law govern the Company, which may prohibit certain business combinations with stockholders owning 15% or more of its outstanding voting stock. These provisions of the Delaware law could make it more difficult for stockholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of the Company and could delay or impede a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving the Company. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction could cause the market price of the Companys common stock to decline. Such provisions also make it difficult for stockholders to change the direction or
management of the Company.

The Company has Broad Discretion in How it Uses the Net Proceeds from Public and Private Offerings of Its Securities and it May not Use These Proceeds Effectively.

Management has broad discretion as to the application of the net proceeds of the sale of its securities. The Companys stockholders may not agree with the manner in which management chooses to allocate and spend the net proceeds. Moreover, management may use the net proceeds for corporate purposes that may not increase profitability or market value.

In Selling Convertible Notes During the Period 2001 to August 2004, the Company May Have Violated the Registration Requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) Which, if it Occurred, Would give Note Holders a Right to Rescind their Purchases.

Commencing in 2001 and ending in August 2004, the Company sold three series of convertible notes, each bearing interest at a rate of 7%. The proceeds raised from the sale of all series of these notes have been used for operating costs and clinical trials. The notes were sold to investors who, with few exceptions, were not residents or citizens of the United States. The Company made these sales in reliance on the fact that the sales either occurred outside the United States and were thus not subject to the jurisdiction of the Securities Act or were made to accredited investors pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by the Securities Act.
The Companys counsel has advised the Company that the availability of those exemptions cannot be determined with legal certainty because the Company did not comply with all of the provisions of exemption safe-harbors for such sales offered by rules promulgated under the Securities Act by the SEC. Thus, it is possible that the sale of some of the series of convertible notes may have violated the registration requirements of the Securities Act. As to most of those sales, a right of rescission may exist on which the statute of limitations has not run. For those note holders which elected to convert to common stock and which have not sold that stock, the Company may have a contingent liability arising from the original purchase of the convertible notes that such note holders converted. If the sales to note holders that have converted to common stock had to be rescinded, the Companys total potential liability could be $3,617,000 plus interest. That liability would extend for up
to six years after the date of the sale of the applicable convertible note that was converted to common stock. The notes were converted at either $2.00 per share or $4.00 per share. Accordingly, the market price of the Companys common stock will likely have to remain below one of those conversion rates before a former note holder has a significant economic reason to pursue any potential rescission rights.

The Company Increased Costs as a Result of Being a Public Company.

As a public company, the Company incurred significant legal, accounting and other expenses that the Company did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as new

31

TABLE OF CONTENTS

rules the SEC subsequently implemented, have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. The Company expects these new rules and regulations to continue to increase the Companys legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, as a result of becoming a public company, the Company has added independent directors, created additional board committees and adopted policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. In addition, the Company is incurring additional costs associated with its public company reporting requirements. The Company
also expects these new rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for the Company to continue to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and the Company may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for the Company to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on the board of directors or as executive officers. The Company cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs it may incur or the timing of such costs.

If the Companys Common Stock Remains Subject to the SECs Penny Stock Rules, the Stockholders May Find it Difficult to Sell Their Stock.

The trading price of the Companys common stock is below $5.00 per share, so the Companys common stock is presently subject to the SECs penny stock rules. Before a broker-dealer can sell a penny stock, the penny stock rules require the firm to first approve the customer for the transaction and receive from the customer a written agreement to the transaction. The firm must furnish the customer a document describing the risks of investing in penny stocks. The broker-dealer must tell the customer the current market quotation, if any, for the penny stock and the compensation the firm and the broker will receive for the trade. Finally,
the firm must send monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account. These disclosure requirements tend to make it more difficult for a broker-dealer to make a market in penny stocks, and could; therefore, reduce the level of trading activity in a stock that is subject to the penny stock rules. Consequently, if the common stock remains subject to the penny stock rules, the Companys stockholders may find it difficult to sell their shares.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

The Company has no unresolved staff comments.

Item 2. Properties

In March 2006, the Company moved its headquarters and administrative offices to Las Vegas, Nevada. This facility is adequate for anticipated future needs. The Companys office space in Las Vegas comprises 7,190 square feet and for the period of sixty months with a monthly base rent of $16,897. In addition the Company has expanded space of 3,911 square feet for the period of fifty four months with a monthly rent of $9,191. The Company also had a facility in San Diego with a lab and office space. This space comprised 6,768 square feet and was equipped with wet labs, chemical hoods, and a fully functional vivarium, in which animal efficacy
experiments could be performed. The lease was for eighty-one months and the monthly rent was $15,228 per month. The Company concluded that it would be more cost effective to continue outsourcing certain research and development activities than to increase its business activities in the San Diego Laboratory facility. Accordingly, on March 14, 2008 the Company terminated its lease of the facility in San Diego in exchange for the amount of the security deposit of $57,805. There is no future liability after this date.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is involved in various routine legal proceedings incidental to the conduct of the business. The Company currently is not a party to any existing or threatening litigation or claim that could be material to its business.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 2007.

Recent Sale of Unregistered Securities

On March 18, 2008, the Company began a Private Placement of debt and warrants in an effort to raise up to $15,000,000 in promissory notes that mature within 18 months from the date of issuance. The Private Placement is being conducted pursuant to a subscription agreement with certain Accredited Investors, as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. Assisting with the Private Placement is GHL Financial Services Ltd., a related party, acting as the lead placing agent for a commission of up to 10% of the gross proceeds placed. In the subscription agreement and related documents the Company is
gathering the necessary information and certifications from the investors to demonstrate they meet the criteria for Accredited Investors. The notes are unsecured, are accompanied by the personal guarantee of Daniel C. Montano, the Companys Chairman, Co-President and CEO and serve as consideration for the issuance of warrants issued in conjunction with the notes. The warrants are being issued at exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.50 per share. Each warrant grants the right to purchase a total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company such that the aggregate exercise price of the particular warrant equals 100% to 150% of the amount invested under the note issued to that particular investor. The warrants are immediately vested and may be exercised for three to five years. The warrants are being issued in reliance on the exemptions from registration afforded under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Regulation D promulgated there under by the SEC.
As of April 1, 2008, the Company has received gross proceeds of $200,000.

On May 21, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 15,000,000 of common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share in connection with Private Placement to the investor and certain other subscribers pursuant to a subscription agreement. The securities are issued in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 (Regulation S). In the subscription agreement and related documents, the Company has gathered the necessary information and certifications from the investors to demonstrate their characteristics and representation comply with the requirements of Regulation S. As of
October 12, 2007, the Company issued 3,650,000 shares. The Company received gross proceeds in the amount of $3,650,000 and net proceeds in the amount of $3,285,000 towards completion of the Private

Placement. Theagreement, as amended, provides for commissions of 10% of the amount placed in addition to warrants to purchase 3,700,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The investor paid $3,700 for the warrants. The agreement, as amended, expired November 9, 2007.

On March 20, 2006, the Company completed the private placement of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes together with warrants to purchase 705,882 shares of its common stock. The Company will incur certain penalties if the Company fails to file and obtain and maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the securities, such as cash payments to the note holders calculated under formulas based on the principal amount of the notes and aggregate exercise price of the warrants. The notes were sold to four institutional investors pursuant to the exemptions from registration afforded under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Regulation D promulgated there under by the SEC.

The Company may also incur cash damages if it fails to issue and deliver certificates of its common stock in a timely manner upon receipt of a notice from a note holder to convert all or a portion of the note holders note. The Company may also be required to redeem all or a portion of the principal amount of a note in the event a conversion fails. Under certain triggering events, the Company may be required to redeem all or a portion of the principal amount of a note in the sum of 120% of the principal plus applicable interest. Examples of triggering events are: (i) delisting of the Companys securities; (ii) failure of a registration
statement to be filed; (iii) failure of a registration statement to become effective; and (iv) other triggering events. Other terms and conditions that are material to the Company are: (i) after a triggering event the holder of a note has the option to require the Company to pay a redemption price at the option of a note holder; (ii) a redemption in the event of a change in control at the option of a note holder, (iii) certain events of default; and (iv) the acceleration of payment of a note upon the occurrence of an event of default.

The gross proceeds of the Private Placement were $20,000,000. The Company incurred a closing fee of: (i) $200,000 to purchasers of the notes, (ii) an investment banking fee in the amount of $1,200,000 to CK Cooper & Company, a party related to one of the Companys former directors, Alexander G. Montano; and (iii) other expenses in the amount of $3,000. A total of $1,403,000 in transaction fees and expenses were paid by the Company, such that the Company realized net proceeds in the amount of $18,597,000. The Company sold the securities under the exemption from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933
(Regulation D).

On March 20, 2006, Daniel C. Montano, the Companys Chairman, Co-President and CEO, entered into a Guaranty Agreement whereby he guaranteed any and all of the Companys obligations resulting from the sale on March 20, 2006 of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and warrants. The guaranty remains in effect until the later of March 20, 2007 or the first date on which the Company receives revenue from the sale of drugs, containing FGF-1141, after such drug has been approved by the FDA, provided that on such date the Company is not in default of any provisions of the obligations or triggering events contained in the agreements for
the senior secured notes and warrants and such default is not continuing. However, the guaranty shall terminate upon the payment in full of the notes including conversion of the notes into the Companys common stock.

After the Companys obligations contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants have been paid in full, if Daniel C. Montano had been required to make any payments pursuant to this guaranty prior to the payment in full of the Companys obligations, the Company will reimburse Daniel C. Montano for any such payments plus simple interest at 7% per annum from the date of the advance by Daniel C. Montano to the date reimbursed by the Company.

The active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in drug candidates is FGF-1141 (formerly Cardio Vascu-GrowTM) and it facilitates the growth of new blood vessels in the heart tissues and organs that have an impaired vascular system. This process is referred to as angiogenesis in the scientific community.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We were established in 1998, as a Delaware corporation, to commercialize the results of the clinical research in cardiovascular disease treatment for Severe Coronary Heart Disease (formerly known as No-Option Heart Patients) that Dr. Thomas J. Stegmann, co-founder of the company, performed in the mid-1990s. We entered into an agreement with Dr. Stegmann, dated March 11, 1998, which is superseded by an agreement dated August 16, 2004, whereby Dr. Stegmann granted the Company a non-revocable exclusive perpetual right to use, modify, add to, practice and sell the results of his clinical trials. Dr. Stegmann will receive a one percent royalty on all
sales of drugs formulated with FGF-1141 through December 31, 2013. The grant of rights is perpetual and therefore cannot be terminated by Dr. Stegmann. To date we have made no royalty payments under this Agreement.

We have not generated revenues to date and expect to incur substantial and increasing losses for at least the next several years. We do not expect to generate revenues until the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves one of drug candidates, and we begin marketing it. We expect to continue to invest significant amounts on the development of drug candidates. We expect to incur significant commercialization costs when we recruit a domestic sales force. We also plan to continue to invest in research and development for additional applications of FGF-1141 and to develop new drug delivery technologies. Accordingly,
we will need to generate significant revenues to achieve and then maintain profitability.

Most of expenditures have been for research and development activities and general and administrative expenses. We conduct research to identify and evaluate medical indications that may benefit from drug candidates and potential new drug candidates that can graduate from research to development. We classify research and development into two major classifications: pre-clinical and clinical. Pre-clinical activities include product analysis and development, primarily animal efficacy and animal toxicity studies. Clinical activities include FDA (or other countries equivalent regulatory agencies) Investigational New Drug (IND)
submissions, FDA-authorized trials and the FDA approval process for commercialization. Research and development expenses represent costs incurred for pre-clinical and clinical activities. We outsource clinical trials and manufacturing and development activities to third parties to maximize efficiency and minimize internal overhead. Manufacturing is outsourced to an affiliated entity. We expense research and development costs as they are incurred.

These expenses are subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with clinical trials and the FDA review and approval process. As a result, these additional expenses could exceed estimated amounts, possibly materially. We are uncertain as to what we expect to incur in future research and development costs for pre-clinical activities as these amounts are subject to the outcome of current pre-clinical activities, Management is continuing its assessment of the economics of each individual research and development project and the internal competition for project funding.

General and administrative expenses have focused primarily on the activities of administrative support, marketing, intellectual property rights and corporate compliance. We anticipate that general and administrative expenses will increase as a result of the expected expansion of operations, facilities and other activities associated with the planned expansion of business, together with the additional costs associated with operating as a public company. We will incur sales and marketing expenses as we build sales force and marketing capabilities for drug candidates, subject to receiving required regulatory approvals. We expect these expenses to be
material.

2. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our managements discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments related to these
estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

While our significant accounting estimates are more fully described in our financial statements appearing in this Form 10-Q, we believe that the following accounting policies relating to stock-based compensation charges are most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results.

Stock Based Compensation.  We account for stock option grants to employees using the fair value method prescribed in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and FIN 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation. In March 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. It also amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 123. Since we have has historically followed the fair value method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the adoption of SFAS No. 148 has had no impact to our financial position or results of operations. However, our financial statement disclosures have been designed to conform to the new disclosure requirements that SFAS No. 148 prescribes.

We account for stock option and warrant grants issued to non-employees using the guidance of SFAS No. 123R and EITF No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, whereby the fair value of such option and warrant grants is determined using the Black-Scholes Model at the earlier of the date at which the non-employees performance is completed or a performance commitment is reached.

Valuation of Derivative Instruments.  FAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, we use the Black-Scholes Model. Derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as Adjustments to Fair Value of Derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants are valued using Black-Scholes
Models.

Research and Development Costs.  We account for research and development costs in accordance with SFAS No. 2, Accounting for Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred.

Development Stage Enterprise.  We are a development stage company as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises. We are devoting substantially all of our present efforts to its formation, fundraising, and product development and approval. Its planned principal operations of selling its pharmaceutical products have not yet commenced. For the period from March 11, 1998 (inception) through December  31, 2007 (unaudited), we have accumulated a deficit of approximately $70.7 million. There can be no assurance that we will have
sufficient funds available to complete its research and development programs or be able to commercially manufacture or market any products in the future, that future revenue will be significant, or that any sales will be profitable. We expect operating losses to increase for at least the next several six months due principally to the anticipated expenses associated with the proposed product development, clinical trials and various research and development activities.

3. Results of Operations

For the Years Ended December 31, 2006 and 2007

Our activities during the year ended December 31, 2007 consisted almost entirely of research and development and general corporate activities to support FDA clinical trials. Research and development expenses decreased 15.25% to approximately $6,191,000 from $7,135,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Our clinical trials expenses decreased to 36.66% to approximately $2,332,000 from $3,187,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The decrease in clinical trial costs are explained in the clinical trials updates below:

Clinical Development

i) Severe Coronary Heart Disease  Drug Candidate CVBT 141-A  Surgical delivery: We completed the enrollment and treatment of all patients specified in Phase I clinical trial protocol. A total of 21 patients were treated at six participating U.S. medical centers, which were managed by contract clinical research organization. A full report of this trial will be submitted to the FDA. The Company has completed collecting the final safety data on 12 month follow-up visits of patients who were treated in Phase I clinical trial. We filed a report with the FDA listing all adverse events or other safety issues observed in this
trial up to and including the 12-week follow-up visit of all patients who participated in this trial. Of note, the Data and Safety Monitoring Committee, an independent group of three external physicians, reviewed all safety data from trial and concluded that there were no serious, unexpected adverse events attributable to drug candidate in this Phase I trial, and recommended we proceed onto a Phase II clinical trial

Based on written comments received back from the U.S. FDA, a major change in the clinical Protocol for the Phase II clinical trial was recommended and now authorized by the FDA dealing with the manner in which the API, FGF-1, will be delivered to the heart by a catheter injection system described below.

ii) Severe Coronary Heart Disease  Drug Candidate CVBT 141-H  Injection catheter delivery: CVBT is now proceeding with its Phase II clinical trial in patients with severe coronary heart disease. In collaboration with Cordis Corporation, the drug candidate will be delivered to the heart using their proprietary catheter injection system, the MyoStar® injection catheter. Before and after treatment with the drug candidate, each patient's heart will be screened and ischemic regions of the heart identified utilizing Cordis Corporation's NOGA® electromagnetic mapping system, in addition to other techniques provided
for in the protocol. A placebo group has been added as an additional control group to the Phase II study. This will significantly improve the statistical analysis of efficacy results we obtain from this trial.

The Phase II trial will be an international trial conducted in an expanded patient population in both U.S. and foreign clinical trial sites. We have chosen Kendle, an international clinical research organization to oversee and manage Phase II trial. Kendle will work closely with the Cordis Corporation to identify clinical trial sites that have prior experience with the MyoStar® and NOGA® catheter systems.

iii) Wound Healing  Drug Candidate CVBT-141B: On October 2, 2007, we announced the successful completion of Phase I trial with no serious adverse events. In this trial we tested wound healing drug candidate CVBT-141B in eight patients with diabetic foot ulcers or venous stasis leg wounds. The patients received either a low or high dose application of wound healing drug candidate and no adverse events were observed in any of the patients receiving the drug candidate. A Phase Ib/II clinical protocol to continue development of this drug candidate is now being finalized for submission to the FDA. In this trial, both safety and efficacy of
the drug candidate will be tested.

Previously, we completed animal studies that demonstrated that CVBT-141B was a safe and efficacious agent in healing wounds in diabetic mice. In addition, it was demonstrated that little, if any, of wound healing drug candidate was absorbed into the blood stream after topical application to the wound surface. Similar absorption studies are being conducted in patients in Phase I clinical trial. After completion of this Phase I trial, a Phase Ib/II Clinical Protocol has been drafted where the drug candidate, will be tested over a longer period to increase wound closure rates in a similar patient population.

iv) Peripheral Arterial Disease  Drug Candidate CVBT-141C: The FDA has authorized a Phase I clinical trial for the treatment of intermittent claudication associated with PAD.We are in the process of identifying clinical trial sites. Colorado Prevention Center will be the contracted clinical research organization that will manage this trial and they have identified six U.S. medical centers that will be contracted to perform this trial.

v) Lumbar Ischemia  Drug Candidate CVBT-141E: In 2007, four patients have been dosed in the low dose group with no adverse events reported. Due to extremely slow enrollment into this trial, the company has decided to halt this study and focus on the Disc Ischemia medical indication detailed below.

vi) Disc Ischemia  We have initiated a population study in all age groups to ascertain the degree that perfusion abnormalities of the lumbar vertebral bodies are associated with lumbar degenerative disc disease connected to low back pain and/or vertebral bone repair. We have contracted with the Orthopaedic Education and Research Institute (OrthoERI) of Southern California to perform a preliminary clinical study on approximately 50 volunteers. Dr. Vance Gardner, a noted orthopaedic spine surgeon and executive director of OrthoERI, has agreed to consult with CVBT regarding his scientific and market research. The study received
institutional review board (IRB) approval and to date approximately 41 volunteers have entered this proof-of-concept clinical study. The technique employed uses a unique and proprietary, contrast enhanced, high field strength MRI scanning technique that identifies blocked blood vessels and/or perfusion abnormalities of the lumbar vertebral bodies. The goal for the study is the identification of abnormalities that can be improved with angiogenic treatment. These abnormalities may include; diminished nutrition etiology of degenerative disc disease or an ischemic mechanism of vertebral bone degeneration. To date, we are observing differences in the perfusion of vertebrae in younger volunteers as compared to those in the ages that are more associated with degenerative disc disease and bone degeneration. Once an adequate population study has been completed and diagnostic criteria developed, we will investigate the clinical use of drug candidate CVBT-141D, which contains
FGF-1141, to improve a diagnosed ischemic state.

Pre-Clinical Development

i) Bone Repair: Data from a second animal model of bone growth indicated a robust effect of FGF-1 on the growth of new bone after a local injection to skull bones. The effect was significant and substantial. On July 17, 2007, CVBT announced that it has successfully completed work on a new medical indication for, FGF-1, in an animal model of bone growth. This research project, conducted in collaboration with Tufts University Medical School, will continue with future efforts to explore larger animals of bone growth that more closely resemble bone growth in humans.

ii) Stroke: We are continuing research with experimental animal models of both acute and chronic stroke, and we are examining the potential improvement in neurological deficits caused by stroke after treatment with FGF-1. On July 12, 2007, we announced the completion of a pre-clinical research program to assess the effects of the protein-based drug candidate, CVBT-141F, in reducing brain damage due to stroke. The results from three independent animal studies demonstrated that CVBT 141F significantly reduced the stroke-affected area in the brain.

Adjustment to fair value of derivatives decreased from approximately $8,174,000 to ($8,009,000) and adjustments to the fair value of derivatives- other decreased from $10,390,000 to ($798,000) for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2007. In addition to the decrease in the outstanding balance of the Convertible Notes and the increase in the number of vested outstanding non-employee option and warrants, the primary components of the Change in Fair Value of Derivatives calculations are the changes in stock price during the reported period and the volatility in the stock prices of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model. If
stock price decreases sufficiently, we may show Other Income; conversely, if it increases we may show Other Expense. Additionally, if the volatility in the stock prices of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model increases sufficiently, we may show Other Expense, conversely, if it decreases, we may show Other Income. Since the issuance of the Convertible Notes on March 20, 2006 to the period, ended December 31, 2007 the Companys stock price has decreased from $7.15 to $0.45 and was $0.88 at December 31, 2007. For the same period, the volatility in the stock price of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model ranged from 44.56% to 84.04%. Since inception to December 31, 2007 the Company has shown $11,188,380 of adjustments to the fair value of derivatives as Other Income.

Years Ended December 31, 2006 and 2005

Our activities during the year ended December 31, 2006 consisted almost entirely of research and development and general corporate activities to support FDA clinical trials. Research and development expenses increased 131% from approximately $3,091,000 to $7,135,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

The increase of approximately $4,044,000 is part due to increased clinical costs of approximately $2,018,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in clinical costs is due to the following clinical trials updates:

a) As of December 31, 2006, we have completed the enrollment and treatment of all patients specified in Phase I clinical trial protocol (coronary heart disease). A total of 21 patients were treated at six participating U.S. medical centers that were managed by contract clinical research organization. We are currently collecting the final safety data at 12 month follow-up visits on patients who were treated in Phase I clinical trial. We filed a report with the FDA listing all adverse events or other safety issues observed in this trial up to and including the 12 week follow-up visit of all patients who participated in this trial. We have finalized the
development of a clinical protocol for Phase II study, where we will test drug candidate in an expanded patient population in both U.S. and foreign clinical trial sites. We have chosen a new clinical research organization, Kendle, to oversee and manage international Phase II trial. Given the uncertainty of drug candidate progress due to the FDAs control over the course and timing of clinical trials, we anticipate the injections into patients for Phase II and pivotal Phase III clinical trials to be completed in 2009.

b) We were authorized by the FDA to conduct clinical testing of wound healing drug candidate, CVBT-141B, with API, in patients with diabetic foot ulcers or venous stasis leg wounds. This Phase I study in which eight patients will receive either a low or high dose application of wound healing drug candidate has been initiated at two clinical sites located in the Pittsburgh, PA area. To date three patients have been dosed. Previously, we completed animal studies that demonstrated that CVBT-141B was a safe and efficacious agent in healing wounds in diabetic mice. In addition, it was demonstrated that little, if any, of wound healing drug candidate was
absorbed into the blood stream after topical application to the wound surface. Similar absorption studies are being conducted in patients in Phase I clinical trial.

c) A clinical protocol for a PAD Phase I study in diabetic patients has been prepared and was submitted to the FDA for their review in August 2006. We have received FDA authorization to initiate Phase I clinical trial in PAD patients suffering from intermittent claudication.

d) We performed animal toxicity studies to support the safety of lumbar ischemia drug candidate CVBT-141E for this proof of concept clinical trial. We have initiated a Phase I clinical trial in Russia and Serbia in 2006 to test whether lumbar ischemia drug candidate, CVBT-141E, can successfully treat chronic back pain. We have completed animal toxicity studies to support the safety of product for this proof of concept clinical trial. Clinical protocols were submitted to regulatory authorities in Russia and Serbia who have authorized the start of this clinical study in which 32 patients (four groups of 8 patients each) will receive 4 increasing doses
of CVBT-141E. The patients will be followed for a decrease in back pain, as determined by standardized back pain questionnaires, as well as increased blood perfusion into their lower back muscles as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The first patient was treated in December 2006 and enrollment of all patients is expected to be completed in 2007. If the results of the proof of concept clinical trial in Russia and Serbia are positive, we plan to then file an IND application with the FDA to allow a Phase I human trial to begin in chronic back pain patients in the U.S.

e) The increase in research and development costs was also due to salaries and benefits of employees of approximately $1,225,000 and R&D operating expenses of approximately $422,000 as we continue to add resources to this function. As of December 31, 2006, we had four scientist employees, eight scientists under contract through a technical support agreement with a related party, and two other individuals involved in research and development activities under contract. Their tasks included overseeing pre-clinical testing, researching other medical uses of FGF-1141 and preparing and filing various regulatory documents with the FDA. In
addition, these personnel are responsible for establishing that the quality of FGF-1141 used in the clinical trials meets the specifications required by the FDA.

Adjustments to fair value of derivatives increased in the period ended March 31, 2006 as we entered into a financing transaction that contained embedded derivatives in the notes and derivated features in the warrants. In addition, we recorded option and warrant derivatives for outstanding and vested non-employee warrants and options on the date of the financial transaction and revalued these same vested non-employee options and

TABLE OF CONTENTS

warrants at March 31, 2006. These derivative features are required to be re-valued at fair market value at each measurement date. The result of re-valuing these derivative features as of December 31, 2007 resulted in an expense to the statement of operations for $7,210,691.

4. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Since inception and through December 31, 2007, we have financed operations through the initial public offering of common stock, the private sale of capital stock and convertible notes and the private placement of senior secured convertible notes. Through December 31, 2007, we have received net proceeds of approximately $60,448,000 from the issuance of shares of common stock, convertible preferred stock and convertible notes payable and the private placement of senior secured convertible notes. The table below summarizes sales of equity securities and convertible notes through December 31, 2007.

(a)

          On May 21, 2007, we entered into an agreement to sell 15,000,000 of common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share in connection with Private Placement to the investor and certain other subscribers pursuant to a subscription agreement. As of October 12, 2007, we issued 3,650,000 shares. We received gross proceeds in the amount of $3,650,000 and net proceeds in the amount of $3,285,000 towards completion of the Private Placement. Theagreement, as amended, provides for commissions of 10% of the amount placed in addition to warrants to purchase 3,700,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The investor paid $3,700 for the warrants. The agreement, as amended, expired November 9, 2007. We have extended this agreement from November 9, 2007 to January 31, 2008 and, in addition, we have received an additional $725,000 subsequent to December 31, 2007.(b)

          On March 20, 2006, we completed the private placement of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes together with warrants to purchase 705,882 shares of common stock, which was increased to 5,999,997 due to price re-set from $8.50 to $1.00. We will incur certain penalties if it fails to file, obtain and maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the Securities, such as cash payments to the note holders calculated under formulas based on the principal amount of the notes and aggregate exercise price of the warrants. A total of $1,553,000 in transaction fees and expenses have been paid by us, such that we realized net proceeds in the amount of $18,447,000.On March 20, 2006, Daniel C. Montano, Chairman, Co-President and CEO, entered into a Guaranty Agreement whereby he guaranteed any and all of obligations resulting from the sale on March 20, 2006 of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and warrants. The guaranty remains in effect until the later of March 20, 2007 or the first date on which we received revenue from the sale of drugs containing FGF-1141 after such drug has been approved by the FDA, provided that on such date we are not in default of any provisions of the obligations or triggering events contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants and such default is
not continuing. However, the guaranty will terminate upon the payment in full of the notes including conversion of the notes into common stock.

After obligations contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants have been paid in full, if Daniel C. Montano was required to make any payments pursuant to this guaranty prior to the payment in full of obligations, we will reimburse Daniel C. Montano for any such payments plus simple interest at 7% per annum from the date of the advance by Daniel C. Montano to the date reimbursed by us.

5. Cash Flow

Years Ended December 31, 2006 and 2007

Cash consumed in operating activities decreased by 24% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. The decrease is due to completing the Phase I of CHD and Wound Healing clinical trials in 2007 and not starting the Phase II of these trials until 2008, as discussed in the result of operation.

Cash consumed in investing activities decreased by 106% due to the reduction in restricted cash of $112,000 and $777,000 less of capital expenditures resulting in total of $924,000 of reduced cash consumption in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The reduction of $13,254,000 in cash flows indicates a reduction in net funds raised for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006.

gross proceeds in the amount of $3,650,000 and net proceeds in the amount of $3,285,000 towards completion of the Private Placement. See (a) above for more detail.6. Funding Requirements

We do not expect to generate significant additional funds unless and until we obtain marketing approval for and begins selling, one of its new drug candidates. The Company believes that the key factors that will affect its internal and external sources of cash are:



          ability to successfully obtain marketing approval for and to commercially launch one of new drug candidates;

          the success of other pre-clinical and clinical development programs;

          the receptivity of the capital markets to financing by biotechnology companies; and

          revenues, if any, from successful development and commercialization of potential products.Based on historical as well as budgeted expenditures, we believe we will need to raise additional external funds in the future through the sale of additional equity or debt securities to continue to develop drug candidates at current rate of expenditure. The sale of additional equity securities will result in additional dilution to stockholders. Additional financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, delay or eliminate some or all of its planned research, development and commercialization activities, which could harm the
financial condition and operating results.

          We sold $20,000,000 of notes that have a floating interest rate of 3 month LIBOR plus 7%. We have the option to pay the interest with registered common stock (see Note 9). During the year ended December 31, 2006, note holders converted $1,897,514 of the convertible senior secured notes to 987,219 shares of common stock for an average share price of $1.84 (including 74,518 committed shares). During the year ended December 31, 2007, Convertible note holders elected to convert $14,222,486 of their notes receivable to 19,150,903 shares of common stock for an average price of $1.00. Should interest rates remain constant and the lenders do not convert any more debt into common stock, and if we choose to make payments in cash, we would have a liability of approximately $582,000.(b)

          In November 2005, we entered into an operating lease agreement for office space in Las Vegas, Nevada, which requires monthly payments of approximately $17,900. We have one five-year option to renew the lease. Building operating expenses are reconciled annually, and any increase over the base year is billed pro rata among the building's tenants. We occupied this property in March 2006. We entered into a second amendment on September 8, 2006, for the expansion space use of administrative offices in Las Vegas. The five-year lease obligation is approximately $1,080,625 including approximately $327,635 in base rent for the expanded space throughout the term of the lease. We entered into a Lease Agreement dated August 7, 2006 with Nancy Ridge LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability company, for the use of general office and laboratory space in San Diego, CA. The lease commences on September 1, 2006 and expires on May 13, 2013, at which time we will have
the option of extending the lease by five years on the same terms and conditions of the lease. We have paid Nancy Ridge a fully refundable security deposit in the amount of $57,804 and further agreed to pay $15,228 per month for the term of the lease for the use of 6,768 square feet of general office and laboratory space.

          This agreement was for a new manufacturing facility in San Diego, CA. The lease provided for Minimum Monthly Rent and Additional Rent for shared costs, which aggregate approximately $20,000 per month.9)

          We entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain investors to place $20,000,000 of senior secured notes together with warrants to purchase 705,882 shares of common stock. On May 21, 2007, the aggregate number of shares acquirable upon exercise of such warrants increased to 5,999,997. The notes are convertible into shares of common stock at any time at $12 per share until the price re-set as of May 21, 2007 at $1.00 per share (the Fixed Conversion Price). In addition, the notes are convertible after five months from the closing date at 94% of the average of the preceding five days weighted average trading price, if the result is lower than $12 per share. Conversion of the senior secured notes into common stock at other than the Fixed Conversion Price is limited to no more than 10% of the original $20,000,000 note balance per calendar month. The notes mature in March 2009, and bear a resetting floating interest rate of
three month LIBOR plus 7%. The warrants may be exercised anytime up to March 2009. The warrant exercise price is $8.50 per share until the price was re-set as of May 21, 2007 at $1.00 per share. Substantially all of assets secure the notes.These service fees for the obligations below were determined through a process of competitive bids and negotiation.

8. Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

At December 31, 2007, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities. These entities would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

9. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2008, the SEC released SAB No. 110, which amends SAB No. 107 which provided a simplified approach for estimating the expected term of a plain vanilla option, which is required for application of the Black-Scholes Model (and other models) for valuing share options. At the time, the Staff acknowledged that, for companies choosing not to rely on their own historical option exercise data (i.e., because such data did not provide a reasonable basis for estimating the term), information about exercise patterns with respect to plain vanilla options granted by other companies might not be available in the near term; accordingly, in SAB
No. 107, the Staff permitted use of a simplified approach for estimating the term of plain vanilla options granted on or before December 31, 2007. The information concerning exercise behavior that the Staff contemplated would be available by such date has not materialized for many companies. Thus, in SAB No. 110, the Staff continues to allow use of the simplified rule for estimating the expected term of plain vanilla options until such time as the relevant data do become widely available. The Company has adopted SAB 110.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No 141(R) which replaces FASB Statement No. 141, Business Combinations. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This Statement defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. Statement 141 did not define the acquirer,
although it included guidance on identifying the acquirer, as does this Statement. This Statement's scope is broader than that of Statement 141, which applied only to business combinations in which control was obtained by transferring consideration. By applying the same method of accounting  the acquisition method  to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses, this Statement improves the comparability of the information about business combinations provided in financial reports. The company does not believe SFAS No 141 will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No 160 which mends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Before this Statement was issued, limited guidance existed for reporting non-controlling interests. This Statement requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the
parent's owners and the interests of the non-controlling owners of a subsidiary. Those expanded disclosures include a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the equity attributable to the parent and the non-controlling owners and a schedule showing the effects of changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary on the equity attributable to the parent. This Statement therefore improves the completeness, relevance, and transparency of the information provided in the consolidated financial statements. The company does not believe SFAS No 160 will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities  Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This option is available to all entities, including not-for-profit organizations. Most of the provisions in Statement 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. Some requirements
apply differently to entities that do not report net income. The FASB's stated objective in issuing this standard is as follows: to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value option established by Statement 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. A not-for-profit organization will report unrealized gains and losses in its statement of activities or similar statement. The fair value option: (a) may be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, such
as investments otherwise accounted for by the equity method; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs); and (c) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. The Company has adopted FIN 48.

In September 2006, FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, was issued by the FASB. This new standard provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The FASB believes the standard also responds to investors' requests for expanded information about the extent to which Companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. Statement 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.

51

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Currently, over 40 accounting standards within GAAP require (or permit) entities to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. Prior to Statement 157, the methods for measuring fair value were diverse and inconsistent, especially for items that are not actively traded. The standard clarifies that for items that are not actively traded, such as certain kinds of derivatives, fair value should reflect the price in a transaction with a market participant, including an adjustment for risk, not just the company's mark-to-model value. Statement 157 also requires expanded disclosure of the effect on earnings for items measured using unobservable data.
Under Statement 157, fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. In this standard, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, Statement 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The Company is evaluating how SFAS 157 will impact its results of operations and financial position.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

The Company may have interest rate exposure to market risk with its cash and cash equivalents. Interest rates on the Companys money market accounts ranged from 4.89% to 5.29% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Company invested in high-quality financial instruments, primarily money market funds, federal agency notes, and United States treasury notes, which the Company believes are subject to limited credit risk. The Company currently does not hedge interest rate exposure. The effective duration of the Companys portfolio is less than three months, and no security has an effective duration in excess of three months. Due to the
short-term nature of the Companys investments, the Company does not believe that it has any material exposure to interest rate risk arising from its investments.

The Company sold floating rate convertible debt securities. At December 31, 2007, there was $3.88 million of floating rate debt outstanding which is subject to interest rate risk. Interest rates on the Companys convertible notes payable ranged from 12.23% to 12.36% for the year ended December 31, 2007. Each 100 basis points increase in interest rates, relative to these borrowings, will impact annual pre-tax earnings by approximately $38,800 in addition to impacting the Companys cash flow, should the Company choose to pay this interest in cash in lieu of paying in-kind.

The Company sold floating rate convertible debt securities that have several derivative features. The value of the derivative features affects the Companys Statement of Operations and Balance Sheet, but there is no effect on the Companys cash flow.

The value of these derivatives fluctuates from period to period until the notes are redeemed or converted. An increase in value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record an expense to the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations. Conversely, a decrease in the value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record income to the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

Most of the Companys transactions are conducted in United States dollars, although the Company does have some development and commercialization agreements with vendors located outside the United States. Transactions under certain of these agreements are conducted in United States dollars. If the exchange rate changed by ten percent, the Company does not believe that it would have a material impact on its results of operations or cash flows.

Derivative Securities Risk

The Company sold floating rate convertible debt securities that have several derivative features. Whereas the value of the derivative features affects the Companys Statement of Operations and Balance Sheet, there is no effect on the cash flow.

The value of these derivatives fluctuate change from period to period, until the notes are redeemed or converted. An increase in value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record an expense to

the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations. Conversely, a decrease in the value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record income to the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations. The following table summarizes the Adjustments to Fair Value of Derivatives as of December 31, 2007.

The Primary components of the Change in Fair Value of Derivatives calculations are the changes in the Companys stock price during the reported period and the volatility in the stock prices of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model. If the Companys stock price decreases sufficiently, the Company may show Other Income; conversely if it increases the Company may show Other Expense. Additionally, if the volatility in the stock prices of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model increases sufficiently, the Company may show Other Income, conversely, if it decreases, the
Company may show Other Expense. Since the issuance of the Convertible Notes to the period ended December 31, 2007, the Companys stock price has decreased from $7.15 to $0.45 and was $0.88 at December 31, 2007. For the same period, the volatility in the stock price of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model ranged from 44.56% to 84.04%. As of December 31, 2007 the Company shows $8,425,513 of adjustments to the fair value of derivatives as Other Income.

assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Management, with participation by our CEO and CFO, has designed the Companys disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives. As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), in connection with filing this Annual Report on Form 10-K, management conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of December 31, 2007, the end of the period covered by this report.

Based upon the evaluation conducted by management in connection with the audit of the Companys financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to accounting for derivatives. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected by us in a timely manner. As a result of this material weakness, our CEO and CFO concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2007 with respect to accounting for derivatives.

(b) Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. This system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control

TABLE OF CONTENTS

over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures regarding identification of derivatives and effective review of the calculations underlying entries into the books and records for identified derivatives.

Our management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based upon the framework in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting for derivatives was not effective as of December 31, 2007.

An error occurred in identifying certain financial instruments as having an impact on derivative liability in the application of certain accounting principles related to the issuance of the Companys warrants to purchase common stock during the fourth quarter of 2007 and the review procedures included in the design of the process were ineffective in identifying the error. The result of which was the understatement of the estimated fair market value of certain derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2007, all of which will amortize to zero when the remaining outstanding convertible note is paid in full. The Company relies in part on a third
party expert for this identification and review. The ineffective internal controls identified as of December 31, 2007 stemmed in large part from the procedures surrounding the use of the third party expert. The Company believes that the design of the controls and procedures should be effective if performed as designed. The Company is therefore in the process of re-evaluating the qualifications of the third party expert and processes surrounding the utilization of the third party expert to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported with the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms are effective.

In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K were fairly stated in accordance with US GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that despite our material weakness, our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has not issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting as such a report is not required for the Company.

(c) Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

We plan to refine our internal control over financial reporting for derivatives to meet the internal control reporting requirements included in Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX 404) to have effective internal controls by December 31, 2008. The effectiveness of the measures we implement in this regard will be subject to ongoing management review supported by confirmation and testing as part of our SOX 404 compliance process, as well as audit committee oversight. As a result, we expect that additional changes could be made to our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.

During 2008, we intend to take the following remediation efforts:



          Re-evaluate the qualifications of the third party expert;

          Re-evaluate the processes surrounding the utilization of the third party expert, including;o

          Identification of how the error in identification of derivatives occurred;o

          Identification of how once the error occurred that review procedures did not disclose the error.

          Re-designing the process surrounding the utilization of the third party expert based on what we learn in the re-evaluation of the processes discussed immediately above in order to provide reasonable assurance that a material error cannot go undetected by the Company.We believe these remediation efforts will contribute towards an effective internal control environment for financial reporting.

(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Control

A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Inherent limitations in all control systems result in the fact that no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include imperfect judgments in decision making and breakdowns due to error or mistake. Also, the design of a control
system is based on the occurrence of future events, and no assurance can be given that a system will succeed in achieving its stated goal under all potential future conditions.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Overview of Compensation Program

The Compensation Committee (for purposes of this analysis, the Committee) of the Board has responsibility for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with the Companys compensation philosophy, as described below. The Committee ensures that the total compensation paid to the executive management is fair, reasonable and competitive. Generally, the types of compensation and benefits provided to members of the executive management, including the named executive officers (NEOs), are similar to those provided to other executive officers.

The Committee is empowered to review and approve, or in some cases recommend for the approval of the full Board of Directors, the annual compensation and compensation procedures for the NEOs of the Company: the Chief Executive Officer, the Co-Presidents, the Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Financial Officer. Throughout this proxy statement, the individuals who served as the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer during fiscal 2007, as well as the other individuals included in the Summary Compensation Table on page 65, are referred to as the named executive officers or NEOs.

Philosophy (Objectives of Compensation Program)

The Committee evaluates both performance and compensation to ensure that the Company maintains its ability to attract and retain superior executive management in key positions and that compensation provided to executive management remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly situated executives of the Companys peer companies. The Committee believes performance incentives are an important element of compensation, thus, in the future, the Company may include both cash and stock-based compensation that reward performance as measured against established goals.

The Companys compensation program is designed with the ultimate goal of increasing stockholder value over the long term. Executive compensation impacts all employees by setting general levels of compensation and helping to create an environment of goals and expectations. Because the Company believes that the performance of every employee is important to the Companys success, it is mindful of the effect of executive compensation and incentive programs on all of its employees.

The Company believes that the compensation of the NEOs should reflect their success as a management team, rather than as individuals, in attaining key operating objectives. Such objectives include the growth of sales as the Company moves toward becoming revenue producing, growth of operating earnings and earnings per share and growth or maintenance of market share and long-term competitive advantage, with the ultimate goal of increasing the Companys stock price. In the short-term, while the Company is moving drug candidates through the FDA approval process with the goal of commercializing one or more products and becoming revenue producing,
current compensation for the NEOs is primarily in the form of salary. Incentive compensation such as stock options and warrants is considered on a case by case basis depending on progress with clinical trials. Stock based incentives encourage equity ownership, which help ensure the NEOs efforts are consistent with shareholder objectives. When the Company reaches commercialization and approaches revenues, longer term incentives will be developed.

The Company believes that the performance of the NEOs in managing the Company, considered in light of general economic and specific company, industry and competitive conditions, should be the basis for determining their overall compensation. The Company also believes that their compensation should not be based on the short-term performance of the Companys stock, whether favorable or unfavorable, but rather that the price of the Companys stock will, in the long-term, reflect its operating performance, and ultimately, the management of the Company by its executives.

What the Companys Compensation Program Is Designed to Reward

The Companys compensation program is designed to reinforce business objectives and values and align interests of executive officers with shareholders. Regarding most compensation matters, including executive and director compensation, the Companys management provides recommendations to the Committee. The Committee, however, does not delegate any of its functions to others in setting compensation. The Company does not currently engage any consultant to advise it as to executive and/or director compensation matters.

61

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Stock price performance has not been a factor in determining annual compensation because the price of the Companys common stock is subject to a variety of factors outside the Companys control. The Company does not have a formula for allocating between cash and non-cash compensation.

Elements of the Companys Compensation Plan

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, the principal components of compensation for NEOs were:



          base salary; and

          limited perquisites.Compensation Process, Factors Considered, and Determination of Compensation Amounts

Base Salary

The process for determining compensation of NEOs consists of several informal telephonic conferences of the Committee and a minimum of two formal meetings with committee members in attendance. The first formal meeting takes place at the beginning of each year. The second formal meeting generally occurs prior to the end of the second quarter. The Committee reviews the current BioWorld Executive Compensation Report. The Chairman of the Committee then briefs senior management and discusses comparisons of the BioWorld data. The Chief Executive Officer may make compensation recommendations to the Committee with respect to the NEOs who report to him. Such
executive officers are not present at the time of these deliberations. The Chairman of the Committee then makes compensation recommendations to the Committee with respect to the Chief Executive Officer, who is absent from that meeting. The Committee may accept or adjust such recommendations.

Base salaries are set for the Companys NEOs at the second meeting of the Committee and presented to the entire Board of Directors at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board. Throughout the year, the Committee considers recommendations from management for stock awards to eligible employees.

In 2007, two NEOs received Warrant grants as part of a comprehensive incentive initiative. Commensurate with the compensation philosophy, the Compensation Committee reviewed the incentive compensation profile of all staff and recommendations made by the executive officers and in conjunction with deliberation among the full Board concluded that adjustments were warranted. As part of this compensation strategy, in conjunction with the stock option grants to the rest of the Companys staff and proportionately thereto, Mickael A. Flaa received a warrant to purchase 550,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per
share and Jack Jacobs received a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

It is the Committees intention to set total executive cash compensation at a level that will attract and retain a strong and motivated leadership team.

Factors considered by the Committee in setting base compensation include:



          difficulty of achieving desired results in the coming year;

          value of the executives unique skills and capabilities to support the short-term and long-term performance of the Company;

          contribution as a member of the executive management team;

          financial reserves of the Company; and

          peer group compensation analysis of comparable companies.In setting base salaries for fiscal year 2008, the Committee reviewed the 2008 BioWorld Executive Compensation Report which examined the compensation of executives in 273 public biotech companies. In addition, the Committee considered each of the factors set forth above and the internal pay equity of its executive officers. Each NEOs current and prior compensation is considered in setting future compensation. To some extent, the Companys compensation plan is based on the market and the companies it competes against for executive management.

62

TABLE OF CONTENTS

These elements fit into the Companys overall compensation objectives by helping to secure the future potential of its operations, facilitating its entry into new markets, providing proper compliance and regulatory guidance, and helping to create a cohesive team. At such time that the Company becomes revenue producing, other compensation components such as long-term equity incentive compensation, retirement and other benefits may be considered.

Determination of the Mix of Compensation Components

The Committee considers the full range of pay components, including, but not limited to, structure of programs, desired mix of cash and equity awards, goals for distribution of awards throughout the Company, how executive pay relates to the pay of other employees, desirability of employment contracts, supplemental executive retirement plans (SERPS), deferred compensation arrangements, recent compensation history, and perks. The Company began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board on March 10, 2005, and is not expected to generate revenue until it obtains FDA approval of one of its drug candidates which can take several years. Therefore, the Committee
believes that many of the provisions commonly found in employment agreements for executives employed by companies generating income would not be appropriate to include at the present time. However, as the Company matures and/or products are developed and marketed, the Committees goal is to achieve a balanced pay-for-performance executive compensation package. The Committee has reviewed all components of the CEOs and NEOs compensation as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table.

Deductibility of Compensation Under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, adopted in 1993, imposes a $1 million cap, subject to certain exceptions, on the deductibility to a company of compensation paid to the NEOs in such companys proxy statement. The compensation paid this fiscal year subject to the Section 162(m) cap is not expected to exceed $1 million for any NEO. Therefore, the Committee believes that the Company will not be subject to any Section 162(m) limitations on the deductibility of compensation paid to the Companys NEOs for fiscal year 2007.

Compensation Comparison to Companies Reviewed in the 2008 BioWorld® Executive Compensation Report

CEO Compensation.  The average total CEO compensation in 2006, defined as base pay plus bonus, published in the BioWorld® Executive Compensation Report for 2008, was $555,000. The Companys CEO, Mr. Montano, was paid $333,000 in calendar year 2007 with an additional amount of $147,000 accrued but not paid. The Committee did not award any additional equity based compensation or bonus to Mr. Montano in 2007.

Chief Medical Officer and Co-President Compensation.  The salary reflected in the Summary Compensation Table for Dr. Stegmann, the Companys Chief Medical Officer, Co-Founder, and Co-President, is $360,000 for calendar year 2007 with an additional amount of $120,000 accrued but not paid. This position was not reported in the BioWorld Executive Compensation Report.

Research and Development Executive Compensation.  The average 2006 total compensation reported by 94 companies with titles suggesting responsibilities for research and development activities was $278,000. Dr. Jacobs, the Companys Chief Scientific Officer, was paid $166,000 in calendar year 2007 with an additional amount of $74,000 accrued but not paid.

CFO Compensation.  The average total CFO compensation in 2006 for 259 biotech companies surveyed was $259,000. Mr. Flaa was paid $180,000 in calendar year 2007 with an additional amount of $60,000 accrued but not paid. He received a warrant, as reflected in the Summary Compensation Table. His average total compensation is within acceptable standards when compared with other executives engaged in duties of the CFO and Treasurer of public companies in the industry.

The Committee believes that the Companys internal pay equity (the relative difference between the CEOs compensation and the compensation of the companys other executives) is consistent with the differences found in the biotechnology industry as disclosed in the BioWorld® Executive Compensation Report 2008.

63

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Committee, after discussion with management, concluded that although the CEO and each of the NEOs have other business interests outside the Company, either with related companies or personal investments, that each devotes such time, attention, skill and effort as is necessary to the faithful performance and discharge of his duties as required by his position as an executive of the Company.

Continuing Education Philosophy of Compensation Committee

Committee members are encouraged to avail themselves of the wealth of information regarding compensation issues provided by various organizations and made available to directors of public companies. The Committee Chair is a member of the National Association of Corporate Directors and has attended each of the Executive Compensation Conferences, co-sponsored by the NASPP since its inception either in person or via the internet broadcast or by reviewing the compensations standards.com website. In 2006, Mr. Abromovitz, Committee Chair and Mr. Vincent J. Roth, General Counsel, both attended the Executive Compensation Conference in person. The
Committee has been briefed on the SEC disclosure proposals for executive compensation and will continue to review sections of the SEC, NASDAQ, Sarbanes-Oxley rules, and ISS updates devoted to compensation matters, at each committee meeting of its members as part of its ongoing plan for director education.

2004 Stock Plan

The Companys stock option program is the primary vehicle for offering long-term incentives and rewarding its NEOs and employees. The Company also regards its stock option program as a key retention tool. This is a very important factor in the Committees determination of the type of award to grant and the number of underlying shares that are granted in connection with that award. Because of the direct relationship between the value of an option and the market price of the Companys common stock, the Company has always believed that granting stock option awards is the best method of motivating the NEOs to manage the Company in a manner
that is consistent with the interests of the Company and its stockholders. However, because of the evolution of regulatory, tax and accounting treatment of equity incentive programs and because it is important to the Company to retain its NEOs and employees, it is essential to utilize other forms of equity awards as and when the Company may deem necessary.

There were no stock options awarded to NEOs under the 2004 Stock Plan in 2007.

Bonuses

It is the Committees general philosophy that management should be rewarded for its performance. The Committee believes that this is important to aligning its NEOs and promoting teamwork among them. However, since the Company did not generate revenue in 2007 and it believes that the total compensation awarded to the NEOs met its objectives, the Company did not provide performance-based bonuses to executive officers. The Committee reserves the opportunity to award bonuses, even in the formative years of the Company before revenue is generated, if it believes it to be in the best interests of its shareholders.

Perquisites

Company perquisites are limited and not available to all employees. Mr. Montano and Dr. Jacobs are provided health insurance for themselves and family members. Dr. Jacobs is provided with a minimal automobile allowance. Mr. Montano, Dr. Stegmann, Mr. Flaa and Dr. Jacobs are provided with a personal travel benefit for spouses if travel exceeds one week and they choose to bring their spouse on the trip.

Retirement and Other Benefits

The Company offers a 401k plan to its full-time employees. The Company is not obligated to make contributions to the 401k plan. In 2007, the Company did not make any contributions to the 401k plan, though several employees participated in the 401k plan with their own contributions. The Company does not provide pension plans, supplemental executive retirement plans (SERPS), deferred compensation plans, post-retirement health coverage, change in control provisions, golden parachute arrangements, gross-up provisions, termination pay, life insurance benefits, or similar benefits for NEOs or employees. The Committee may consider offering other forms of
retirement plans, such as pensions, savings plans or other similar benefits in the future as the Company gets closer to becoming revenue producing.

Administrative Support

For the years December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 and the period from March 11, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 2007 Phage provided the Company with administrative support in Phages research facility and billed the Company for Phages actual costs incurred plus the Companys pro-rata share (based on costs incurred for the Company as compared to total Phage overhead costs) of Phages overhead costs. Payments to Phage for such support for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 and the period from March 11, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 2007 were $263,922, $144,963, $36,673, $1,197,093, respectively.

Joint Patent Agreement

Cardio has a Joint Patent Agreement with Phage. Under that agreement, Cardio and Phage, respectively, own an undivided one half interest in the U.S. and foreign patent rights, including rights to future patents and patent applications, necessary to develop and commercialize our drug candidates; and Phage agrees to provide certain technical development services to Cardio and to manufacture our drug candidates for Cardios clinical trials at cost. The parties acknowledged that Cardio would have exclusive rights within a defined field, while Phage would have exclusive rights outside that field. Any product Phage manufactures for Cardio
commercialization purposes is paid for on a percentage of sales basis as defined in the agreement. As a part of this agreement, (i) Cardio shall pay Phage a six percent (6%) royalty on the net sales price of finished product to end customer or distributor, in consideration for the grant of the exclusive right to patent rights in the defined field, and (ii) pay to Phage four percent (4%) of net sales for our drug candidates manufactured for Cardio by Phage. The agreement also provides for each party to have certain rights in the event of insolvency of the other party. This agreement expires on the last to expire of the patent rights covered, including extensions.

Currently it is the Companys intention to contract with Phage for manufacturing of its drug candidates for the ongoing FDA trials and for further commercial production. However, the Company has the right to and may choose to use a third party for manufacturing. Phage is manufacturing the drug candidates for the Company in its clinical trials, and may manufacture them for subsequent commercial production.

Furthermore, the Company paid Phage for technical development services and for manufacture of its drug candidates for clinical trials, which Phage provided to the Company at cost. For the years December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 and the period from March 11, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 2007 payments to Phage relating to such services were $578,052, $2,372,817, 1,570,963and $5,506,784, respectively.

to CPI and does not anticipate making any payments in the near future.

As of December 31, 2007 the Companys statement of operations includes a loss of $15,000, which represents the Companys equity in loss on its investment in CPI. The loss reduced the Companys investment in CPI to zero and, as a consequence, the Companys future financial

This agreement terminates on December 31, 2013. The Company has made no payments to Dr. Stegmann under this agreement.

Asia Exclusive Patent License and Distribution Agreement

On December 15, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement, which has been superseded by a new exclusive license agreement dated February 20, 2007, with Korea Biotechnology Development Co., Ltd. (KBDC) to commercialize its future products. The Company transferred to KBDC the rights to market its products for 99 years in all of the Republic of Korea, China, and Taiwan. The Company did this by exclusively licensing its patents to KBDC in Korea, China and Taiwan in the field of: any angiogenic or wound healing compositions and methods of use for which the Company has received marketing approval in the United States, Europe or Japan
(including in particular, but without limitation, all FGF species, fragments, derivatives, and analogs thereof), and methods of making the approved angiogenic or wound healing compositions, including any nucleic acid sequences encoding said compositions and any vectors and/or host cells comprising said nucleic acid sequences. The agreement further provides that any improvements, in the form of modifications to methods, processes, compositions or products within the license field, are the property of the Company, but shall be within the license granted. The parties shall inform each other in writing of any such improvements.

In exchange, KBDC arranged for the subscription for 8,750,000 of the Companys shares of Common Stock for $3,602,000 by Cardio Korea Co. Ltd. KBDC agreed to fund all of the regulatory approval process in the Republic of Korea for any of the Companys products.

In addition, KBDC agreed to pay a royalty of ten percent (10%) of net revenues to the Company. The royalties will be paid for the life of the joint Patent Ownership Agreement, then nine percent (9%) thereafter. The agreement contemplates the expiration or abandonment of the licensed rights, at which point the royalty paid by KBDC is adjusted. Either party may terminate the agreement for material breach that is uncured 30 days after receipt of written notice.

During the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 and the period from March 11, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 2007, the Company paid Dr. Wolfgang Priemer, the Companys co-founder, to assist in the development process of its products. The Company paid Dr. Priemer $55,500, $80,000, $80,000 and $361,555, respectively.

Daniel C. Montano Guaranties

On March 20, 2006, Daniel C. Montano, the Companys Chairman, Co-President and CEO, entered into a Guaranty Agreement whereby he guaranteed all of the Companys obligations resulting from the sale on March 20, 2006 of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and warrants. The guaranty remains in effect the first date on which the Company receives revenue from the sale of drugs after the FDA approves such drugs, provided that on such date the Company is not in default of any provisions of the obligations or triggering events contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants and such default is not continuing. However, the
guaranty will terminate upon the payment in full of the notes including conversion of the notes into the Companys common stock.

After the Companys obligations contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants have been paid in full, if Daniel C. Montano was required to make any payments pursuant to this guaranty prior to the payment in full of the Companys obligations, the Company will reimburse Daniel C. Montano for any such payments plus simple interest at 7% per annum from the date of the advance by Daniel C. Montano to the date reimbursed by the Company.

Daniel C. Montano owes a fiduciary duty of loyalty to the Company. However, there is potential for conflicts of interest between Daniel C. Montanos personal interests and the Companys whether Daniel C. Montanos guaranty is called upon or not. No assurance can be given that material conflicts will not arise that could be detrimental to the Companys operations and financial prospects.

On March 18, 2008, the Company began a Private Placement of debt and warrants in an effort to raise up to $15,000,000 in promissory notes that mature within 18 months from the date of issuance. The notes are unsecured, guaranteed by the Companys CEO, Daniel C. Montano and serve as consideration for the issuance of warrants issued in conjunction with the notes. As of April 1, 2008, the Company has received gross proceeds of $200,000.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and StockholdersCardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc.(formerly Cardiovascular Genetic Engineering, Inc.)(A Development Stage Company)Las Vegas, Nevada

We have audited the balance sheets of CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. (formerly Cardiovascular Genetic Engineering, Inc.) (a development stage company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations, stockholders deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, and the period from March 11, 1998 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 financial position of CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. (formerly Cardiovascular Genetic Engineering, Inc.) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, and the period from March 11, 1998 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 4 to the financial statements, the Company has adopted the provisions of Statement Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes  as Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 on January 1, 2007.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, and its total liabilities exceed its total assets. This raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We were not engaged to examine managements assertion about the effectiveness of CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 included in the accompanying Managements Report on Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

Note 2. Managements Plan   (continued)

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financing or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the Company's inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive
terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company's existing stockholders.

Note 3. Transactions and Contractual Relationships with Affiliated Entities   (continued)

During the period from 1999 through 2001, the Company entered into transactions with these entities affiliated with the Company's CEO (Proteomics, Zhittya, Qure and Sribna). These companies paid expenses on behalf of the Company aggregating $187,600. That amount was repaid without interest. These entities are all currently inactive.

In 2006, the Company became a co-sponsor of the Regenerative Medicine Organization, a non-profit educational organization that focuses on providing information and education to the healthcare community and the public about regenerative medicine.

Joint Patent Agreement

The Company entered into a joint patent agreement with Phage as of February 28, 2007 (the Joint Patent Agreement). The Company plans to develop and commercialize therapeutic methods related to the induction of angiogenesis or wound healing by administration of Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF); and, Phage plans to develop and commercialize recombinant DNA methods for producing peptides/proteins. The Company and Phage entered into a joint patent ownership and license agreement dated as of August 16, 2004, which was later amended and restated as of May 23, 2006 (the Joint Ownership Agreement) pursuant to which Phage
granted the Company a 50% ownership interest in certain patents and patents applications listed in the Joint Ownership Agreement, as well as certain future patent rights, and the parties acknowledge that the Company would have exclusive rights within a defined field, while Phage would have exclusive rights outside that field. The Company and Phage superseded the Joint Ownership Agreement with the Joint Patent Agreement to specify those future patents and patent applications that are to be subject to joint ownership and to restate the licenses granted in the Joint Ownership Agreement. The Company and Phage acknowledge that the jointly owned and cross-licensed rights are vital to the parties' respective plans for development and commercialization and further clarified the parties' respective rights and provided for continued access to the necessary rights in the event of insolvency. In consideration for the grant of the exclusive right to the patent rights in the field, the Company
agreed to pay a 6% royalty to Phage on the net sales price of finished product to the end customer or distributor. The rights and obligations set forth in the Joint Patent Agreement end upon the later of (a) the expiration of the last to expire jointly owned patent and (b) the abandonment of the last pending jointly owned patent application.

Currently it is the Company's intention to contract with Phage for manufacturing of its drug candidates for the ongoing FDA trials and for further commercial production. However, the Company has the right to and may choose to use a third party for manufacturing and is exploring additional contract manufacturers for its drug candidates.

The Company paid Phage for technical development services and for manufacture of its drug candidates for clinical trials:

Distribution Agreement

The Company and Phage have entered into a distribution agreement with CPI, a Bahamian company, to handle future distribution of the Companys drugs and any other products licensed to CPI when available for commercial distribution. CPI's territory is limited to areas other than the United States, Canada, Europe (defined as the Ural Mountains west including Iceland, excluding Turkey and Cyprus), Japan and with respect to the Company only, the Republic of Korea, the Republic of China and Taiwan. Phage and Cardio each own approximately 43% of the CPI outstanding stock and the companies have the right to each appoint 45% of the CPI board. The Company
has made no payments to CPI and does not anticipate making any payments in the near future.

As of December 31, 2003, the Company accounted for its 43% interest in Cardio Phage International (CPI) under the equity method. As of December 31, 2004, the Company's Statement of Operations includes a loss of $15,000, which represents the Company's equity in loss on its investment in CPI. The loss reduced the Company's investment in CPI to zero and, as a consequence, CPI's ongoing operations will not negatively affect the Company's future financial results. The Company has no obligation to fund future operating losses nor has any guarantees on any of CPI's obligations. There is no material difference between the Company's carrying value for CPI and
underlying equity in CPI's net assets. There is no quoted market price for CPI's net assets. There is no quoted market price for CPI's shares.

Royalty Agreement

The Company has entered into an agreement with Dr. Thomas J Stegmann, one of the Companys directors, Co-President and Chief Clinical Officer, whereby the Company will pay Dr. Stegmann a royalty of one percent of the Companys net revenue (as defined) from commercial sales of the Companys drugs in exchange for rights granted to the Company to utilize the results of Dr. Stegmanns German clinical trials. This agreement terminates on December 31, 2013. The Company has made no payments to Dr. Stegmann under this agreement.

Asia Exclusive Patent License and Distribution Agreement

On December 15, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement, which has been superseded by a new exclusive license agreement dated February 20, 2007, with Korea Biotechnology Development Co., Ltd. (KBDC) to commercialize its future products. The Company transferred to KBDC the rights to market its products for 99 years in all of the Republic of Korea, China, and Taiwan. The Company did this by exclusively licensing its patents to KBDC in Korea, China and Taiwan in the field of: any angiogenic or wound healing compositions and methods of use for which the Company has received marketing approval in the United States, Europe or Japan
(including in particular, but without limitation, all FGF species, fragments, derivatives, and analogs thereof), and methods of making the approved angiogenic or wound healing compositions, including any nucleic acid sequences encoding said compositions and any vectors and/or host cells comprising said nucleic acid sequences. The agreement further provides that any improvements, in the form of modifications to methods, processes, compositions or products within the license field, are the property of the Company, but shall be within the license granted. The parties shall inform each other in writing of any such improvements.

In exchange, KBDC arranged for the subscription for 8,750,000 of the Companys shares of Common Stock for $3,602,000 by Cardio Korea Co. Ltd. KBDC agreed to fund all of the regulatory approval process in the Republic of Korea for any of the Companys products.

In addition, KBDC agreed to pay a royalty of 10% of net revenues to the Company. The royalties will be paid for the life of the joint Patent Ownership Agreement, then 9% thereafter. The agreement contemplates the expiration or abandonment of the licensed rights, at which point the royalty paid by KBDC is adjusted. Either party may terminate the agreement for material breach that is uncured 30 days after receipt of written notice.

Daniel C. Montano, the Companys chairman, owns 17% of KBDC and is a former member of the KBDC Board of Directors. KBDC invested $200,000 in each of Sribna, Proteonics and Zhittya and invested $60,000 in CPI.

Guaranty of Rental Agreements for Phage (Now Terminated)

On May 23, 2007, Canta Rana Ranch, L.P., a California limited partnership (Canta Rana), released CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. from its obligations under the Standard Lease Guaranty, executed by the Company on March 15, 2006, in connection with the Standard Industrial Net Lease, dated March 15, 2006, between Phage Biotechnology Corporation, a Delaware Corporation and Canta Rana. The Agreement Exchanging Lease Guaranties, executed by Canta Rana and the Company, among other parties, became effective on May 23, 2007 when the terms therein were satisfied and which effectiveness thereby terminated and superseded the Guaranty, which
released the Company of any and all obligations of Phage under the Phage Lease. Also in relation to the termination of the Guaranty, the Indemnity and Reimbursement Agreement, dated March 15, 2006, between the Company and Phage that was executed in exchange for the Guaranty, automatically terminated on May 21, 2007, the effective date of the exchange of guaranties referenced in the Agreement.

The Company entered into a Standard Lease Guaranty (the Lease Guaranty) dated March 15, 2006 with Canta Rana Ranch, L.P., a California limited partnership and Phage (the Lease Agreement). Phage is an affiliated private biotechnology company that manufactures recombinant protein drugs and is the Company's supplier of drug products. Pursuant to the Lease Guaranty, the Company guarantees full performance of all of Phage's obligations under the Lease Agreement.

Terms of Rental Agreement Prior to Release on May 23, 2007

In exchange for the Company's guarantee of the Lease Agreement, Phage entered into an Indemnity and Reimbursement Agreement dated as of March 15, 2006. Phage will pay the Company certain fees payable on the first day of each calendar month that will be the sum of the following amounts (collectively, Guaranty Fees): (a) one-tenth (1/10th) of one percent (1%) of the remaining aggregate amount of the Minimum Monthly Rent due under the Lease Agreement from the period from May 1, 2006 to the expiration date of the Lease Agreement; and (b) one-tenth (1/10th) of one percent (1%) of the remaining aggregate amount of
Additional Rent due under the Lease Agreement following the payment of additional rent. Any amount of guaranty fees not paid by Phage on the first calendar day of each month shall accrue interest at the lesser of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate allowable by law until paid.

If Phage defaulted on payment of the Minimum Monthly Rent or the Additional Rent, which monthly payments aggregate approximately $20,000, the Company was obligated pursuant to the Lease Guaranty to pay to the lessor the rents in default. The Company's maximum contingent liability was approximately $1,137,000 as of May 22, 2007, but was terminated as of May 23, 2007 as set forth above.

Phage indemnified the Company for any amounts required to be paid by the Company pursuant to the Lease Guaranty in the Indemnity and Reimbursement Agreement dated as of March 15, 2006.

Note 3. Transactions and Contractual Relationships with Affiliated Entities   (continued)

The lease guarantee is irrevocably released when Phage provides to Canta Rana Ranch, L.P. a bank statement showing a balance of $5,000,000.

During August 2004, the Company guaranteed Phage's obligations under a non-cancelable operating lease for laboratory and office space at the University Of California Irvine Research Center. The lease was for 11,091 rentable square feet for the period March 1, 2004 through August 31, 2006 and provided for a monthly rent of approximately $35,500 plus shared building operating expenses. During 2004 and 2005, the Company subleased space from Phage for approximately $2,800 per month as part of the agreement for administrative services. The lease term expired September 30, 2006 without any event of default. The Company's guarantee expired along with the
expiration of the lease.

Guaranty from Daniel C. Montano

On March 20, 2006, Daniel C. Montano, the Company's Chairman, Co-President and CEO, entered into a Guaranty Agreement whereby he guaranteed any and all obligations of the Company resulting from the sale on March 20, 2006 of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and warrants. The guaranty remains in effect until the first date on which the Company receives revenue from the sale of the drugs in which FGF-1141is the active pharmaceutical ingredient after such drug has been approved by the FDA provided that on such date the Company is not in default of any provisions of the obligations or triggering events contained in the agreements for the
senior secured notes and warrants and such default is not continuing. However, the guaranty will terminate upon the payment in full of the notes including conversion of the notes into the Company's common stock.

After the Company's obligations contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants have been paid in full, if Daniel C. Montano was required to make any payments pursuant to this guaranty prior to the payment in full of obligations, the Company will reimburse Daniel C. Montano for any such payments plus simple interest at 7% per annum from the date of the advance by Daniel C. Montano to the date reimbursed by the Company.

Note 4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Development Stage Enterprise

The Company is a development stage company as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises. The Company is devoting substantially all of its present efforts to its formation, fundraising and product development and approval. Its planned principal operations of selling its pharmaceutical products have not yet commenced. For the period from March 11, 1998 (inception) through December 31, 2007, the Company has accumulated a deficit of approximately $70.7 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will; (a) have sufficient funds available to
complete its research and development programs or (b) be able to commercially manufacture or market any products in the future, (c) be successful to attain significant future revenue, (d) or that any sales will be profitable. The Company expects operating losses to increase for at least the next several years due principally to the anticipated expenses associated with the proposed product development, clinical trials and various research and development activities.

Stock Split

In February 2004, the Board of Directors approved, with the approval of the shareholders, a 100-to-1 common stock split. The accompanying financial statements and notes to the financial statements have been retrospectively restated to reflect this split.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures

of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates relate to compensation expense for options, warrants and common stock issued for services.

Cash and Cash Equivalent

For purposes of the statements of cash flow, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

The restricted cash is required as collateral for the Company's credit card facilities.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset, which management believes is 3 to 5 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, whereas major betterments and renewals are capitalized.

Deferred Rent

The Company accounts for property leases with escalation provisions and tenant improvement allowances on a straight-line basis, resulting in a consistent charge to the Statement of Operations over the life of the lease. In the early years of the lease, the Company recognizes a liability for excess straight-line amounts over the actual rent paid. This liability begins to reduce in the later years of the lease.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are
established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48) FIN 48 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of
being realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007, we did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax position.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For specific Company financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and accrued compensation, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

Valuation of Derivative Instruments

FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes Model. Derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are valued using the Black-Scholes Model.

Research and Development Costs

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with SFAS No. 2, Accounting for Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. Research and development costs consist of expenses incurred by third party consultants, contractors, clinical research organizations and suppliers in support of pre-clinical research and FDA clinical trials.

Non-Monetary Transactions

Common stock issued for goods or services is recorded at estimated market value of the common stock issued or the services performed, whichever is more readily determinable.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of convertible notes payable are capitalized as deferred financing costs. These costs primarily include commissions paid to the placement agent. Deferred financing costs relating to obtaining the convertible notes financing were capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method and as redemptions occur the Company charges off a proportional amount of the original deferred financing costs to interest expense. This combined method of amortizing debt discount approximates the effective interest method.

(a)

          The deferred financing costs during the third quarter of 2007 included $215,000 associated with the Private Placement of common stock to the investor, which was recorded in additional paid in capital and certain other subscribers pursuant to a subscription agreement. As of December 31, 2007, the Company issued 3,650,000 shares of the Companys common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share. The Company received gross proceeds in the amount of $3,650,000 and net proceeds in the amount of $3,285,000 towards completion of the Private Placement.At June 30, 2007, the Company determined that $1.2 million of deferred finance costs associated with its AIM listing (Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange) may not have future value;

however, it is managements' intent to continue its effort to list on AIM. Subsequently the Company has written off $1.2 million of deferred finance costs to general and administrative expenses.

Marketing Expense

The Company has been engaged in an advertising program consisting of corporate recognition and image development within the medical and medical reimbursement industries. These marketing costs and advertising expenses are recognized as they occur in accordance with SOP 93-7.

Loss per Share

The Company calculates loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Due to the Company incurring net losses, basic and diluted loss per share are the same.

The following potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2005, December 31, 2006, and December 31, 2007 since their effect would have been anti-dilutive:

Stock-Based Compensation

In December 2004, the FASB issued Share Based Payment SFAS 123 (R) and in March 2005 the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin SAB No. 107. The Company has applied and adopted the provisions of these documents. The Company has used the Black-Scholes Model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to employees and consultants since its inception and therefore, this method represents no significant change in the Company's accounting for options and warrant issuances.

Note 4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies   (continued)

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company's Statements of Operations. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the method as allowed under SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123).

The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. Based on the terms of its plans, the Company did not have a cumulative effect related to its plans. The Company also elected to continue to estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes Model. The Black-Scholes Model is a financial model in determining the fair value of a stock option using calculation based on a defined set of assumptions. Since the Company's policy has always been to expense the issuance of options using the fair value based method using the
Black-Scholes Model, there is no difference in the basic and diluted loss per share.

The Company determined the fair value of share based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Model, which is affected by the Company's stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company's expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards. Prior to 2006, when valuing awards, the Company used the Award's contractual term as a proxy for its expected terms. For new

grants after December 31, 2005, the Company estimated an expected term using the safe harbor provisions provided in SAB 107. The Company used historical data to estimate forfeitures, of which the Company estimated to be none.

The Company has elected to adopt the detailed method provided in SFAS 123(R) for calculating the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (APIC pool) related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and Statements of Cash Flows of the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding upon adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2008, the SEC released SAB No. 110, which amends SAB No. 107 which provided a simplified approach for estimating the expected term of a plain vanilla option, which is required for application of the Black-Scholes-Model (and other models) for valuing share options. At the time, the Staff acknowledged that, for companies choosing not to rely on their own historical option exercise data (i.e., because such data did not provide a reasonable basis for estimating the term), information about exercise patterns with respect to plain vanilla options granted by other companies might not be available in the near term; accordingly, in SAB
No. 107, the Staff permitted use of a simplified approach for estimating the term of plain vanilla options granted on or before December 31, 2007. The information concerning exercise behavior that the Staff contemplated would be available by such date has not materialized for many companies. Thus, in SAB No. 110, the Staff continues to allow use of the simplified rule for estimating the expected term of plain vanilla options until such time as the relevant data do become widely available. The Company has adopted SAB 110.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No 141(R) which replaces FASB Statement No. 141, Business Combinations. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This Statement defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. Statement 141 did not define the acquirer,
although it included guidance on identifying the acquirer, as does this Statement. This Statement's scope is broader than that of Statement 141, which applied only to business combinations in which control was obtained by transferring consideration. By applying the same method of accounting  the acquisition method  to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses, this Statement improves the comparability of the information about business combinations provided in financial reports. The company does not believe SFAS No 141 will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No 160 which mends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Before this Statement was issued, limited guidance existed for reporting non-controlling interests. This Statement requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the
parent's owners and the interests of the non-controlling owners of a subsidiary. Those expanded disclosures include a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the equity attributable to the parent and the non-controlling owners and a schedule showing the effects of changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary on the equity attributable to the parent. This Statement therefore improves the completeness, relevance, and transparency of the information provided in the consolidated financial statements. The company does not believe SFAS No 160 will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations

Note 4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies   (continued)

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities  Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This option is available to all entities, including not-for-profit organizations. Most of the provisions in Statement 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. Some requirements
apply differently to entities that do not report net income. The FASBs stated objective in issuing this standard is as follows: to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value option established by Statement 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. A not-for-profit organization will report unrealized gains and losses in its statement of activities or similar statement. The fair value option: (a) may be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions,
such as investments otherwise accounted for by the equity method; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs); and (c) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. The Company does not believe SFAS No. 159 will have an immediate significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In September 2006, FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, was issued by the FASB. This new standard provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The FASB believes the standard also responds to Investors requests for expanded information about the extent to which companys measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. Statement 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new
circumstances. Currently, over 40 accounting standards within GAAP require (or permit) entities to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. Prior to Statement 157, the methods for measuring fair value were diverse and inconsistent, especially for items that are not actively traded. The standard clarifies that for items that are not actively traded, such as certain kinds of derivatives, fair value should reflect the price in a transaction with a market participant, including an adjustment for risk, not just the companys mark-to-model value. Statement 157 also requires expanded disclosure of the effect on earnings for items measured using unobservable data. Under Statement 157, fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. In this standard, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the
assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, Statement 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The Company is evaluating how SFAS 157 will impact its results of operation and financial position.

Note 9. Demand Notes with Stock Purchase Warrants   (continued)

The warrants are for the purchase of 1,400,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share. The warrants have a term of five years and are exercisable upon issue. The Company allocated the fair value of the warrants against the amount of the Notes. The relative fair value of the warrants was determined to be approximately $507,000, which was determined using the Black-Scholes Model, was recorded as additional paid-in capital and reduced the carrying value of the notes (see (a) below). The discount on debt is being amortized to interest expense over the initial term of the notes. The Black-Scholes Model calculation incorporated the
following assumptions in the table summarized at December 31, 2007:

For the year ended December 31, 2007, debt discount of $75,302 was amortized to interest expense.

(a) The warrants associated with the notes were fair valued upon their issuance and again on December 31, 2007. The following table explains these transactions and their subsequent net increase or decrease recorded through results of operations as income (loss) to adjustment to fair value of derivatives through December 31, 2007.

The Company revalues the derivatives at the end of each quarter to determine if the values of these derivatives have changed from period to period, until the notes are redeemed or converted. An increase in value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record an expense to the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations. Conversely, a decrease in the value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record income to the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations.

In accordance with FAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, EITF 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in a Company's Own Stock, and EITF 05-04, The Effect of a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF Issue No. 00-19, the amounts allocated to the warrant represent a derivative liability that has been recorded in the accompanying balance sheet at December 31, 2007.

Note 10. Convertible Notes Payable

Convertible Senior Secured Notes

On March 20, 2006, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with accredited investors for the issue of an aggregate of $20,000,000 principal amount of convertible notes with offering costs of $1,553,000 representing approximately 7.8% of the principal amount. In connection with the closing of the sale of the notes, the Company received net proceeds of $18,447,000. The fixed conversion price of the Senior Secured Notes, the number of shares and exercise price of the warrants are subject to an adjustment according to provisions in the Securities Purchase Agreement. On May 21, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to sell
15,000,000 of the Companys common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share in connection with a Private Placement to the investor and certain other subscribers pursuant to a subscription agreement. This transaction triggered the adjustment provisions in the Securities Purchase Agreement; and thus the fixed conversion price of $12.00 in the Senior Secured Notes and the exercise price of $8.50 for the warrants (original terms) were both reset to $1.00 per share as of May 21, 2007 (re-pricing), subject to anti-dilution and other customary adjustments. All other terms of the Senior Secured Notes remain unchanged.

As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $3,880,000 principal amount outstanding of such convertible notes, which was convertible at the option of the holders into 3,880,000 shares of common stock based on the re-set Fixed Conversion Price of $1.00 per share. However, the notes are convertible at 94% of the average of the preceding five days' weighted average trading price, if the result is lower than $1 per share. Conversion of the senior secured notes into the Company's common stock at other than the Fixed Conversion Price is limited to no more than 10% of the original $20,000,000 note balance per month. The notes mature in March 2009, and bear a
resetting floating interest rate of three months LIBOR plus 7%. Substantially all of the Company's assets secure the notes.

On May 21, 2007, the Convertible Senior Secured Notes were fair valued according to the original terms of the agreement for the period starting April 1, 2007, through May 21, 2007. On May 21, 2007 the Convertible Notes were fair valued for the re-pricing. On June 30, 2007, the Senior Secured Notes were fair valued reflecting the re-pricing of the convertible notes. The following table explains these transactions and their subsequent net increase or decrease recorded through results of operations as income (loss) to adjustment to fair value of derivatives through December 31, 2007.

The Company revalues the derivatives at the end of each quarter to determine if the values of these derivatives have changed from period to period, until the notes are redeemed or converted. An increase in value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record an expense to the Adjustment to Fair

Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations. Conversely, a decrease in the value of these derivatives will result in the Company having to record income to the Adjustment to Fair Value of Derivatives on the Statement of Operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2006, and December 31, 2007 conversion by note holders of convertible notes and interest into common stock and payment of interest in cash each resulted in reclassifying the fair value of the respective derivative feature on the transaction date from liability to equity in an amount aggregating $1,813,832 and $6,620,143.

In accordance with FAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, EITF 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in a Company's Own Stock, and EITF 05-04, The Effect of a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF Issue No. 00-19, the amounts allocated to the warrant represent a derivative liability that has been recorded in the accompanying balance sheet at December 31, 2007.

The primary components of the Change in Fair Value of Derivatives calculations are the changes in the Company's stock price during the reported period as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables used in the Black-Scholes Model. If the Company's stock price decreases sufficiently, the Company may show Other Income conversely, if it increases the Company may show Other Expense. Additionally, if the volatility in the stock prices of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model increases sufficiently, the Company may show Other Income. Conversely, if it decreases
the Company may show Other Expense. Since the issuance of the convertible notes to the period ended December 31, 2007, the Company's stock price has decreased from $7.15 to $0.45 and was $0.88 at December 31, 2007. For the same period, the volatility in the stock price of comparable companies used in the Black-Scholes Model decreased from 44.56% to 84.04%. As of December 31, 2007, the Company shows $11,188,380 of adjustment to the fair value of derivatives as Other Income as of December 31, 2007.

The convertible note agreements entered into on March 20, 2006 contain variable share settlement provisions. These provisions require the Company to include the fair value of issued and vested non-employee options and warrants in derivative liability accounts on the balance sheet in accordance with EITF 00-19 Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in a Company's Own Stock. The reason for this classification is the possibility that the Company may not have enough authorized unissued common stock to meet all of its commitments in the delivery of the Company's common stock to honor
both the contracts related to the convertible notes and the issued and vested non-employee option and warrant contracts. In order to be in the situation of not having enough unissued shares to deliver to the non-employee option and warrant holders, the fair market value of the common stock of the Company would have to be lower than all of the exercise prices of all the option and warrant contracts. In such case, an option or warrant holder would have to exercise his or her options or warrants at a price that would require him or her to pay more than the fair market value of the common stock on the open market. Nonetheless, according to EITF 00-19 the fair value of these option and warrant contracts must be reclassified as a liability. In addition, the issued and vested non-employee options and warrants identified as derivative instruments require separate valuation under FAS 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities at each balance sheet date and at
the date of each exercise or grant of new non-employee options and warrants.

Daniel C. Montano Guaranty

On March 20, 2006, Daniel C. Montano, the Companys Chairman, Co-President and CEO, entered into a Guaranty Agreement whereby he guaranteed any and all obligations of the Company resulting from the sale on March 20, 2006 of $20,000,000 of senior secured notes and warrants.

The guaranty remains in effect until the later of March 20, 2007 or the first date on which the Company receives revenue from sale of drugs in which FGF-1 is the active ingredient after such drug has been approved by the FDA, provided that on such date the Company is not in default of any provisions of the obligations or triggering events contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants and such default is not continuing. However, the guaranty will terminate upon the payment in full of the notes including conversion of the notes into the Companys common stock.

After obligations contained in the agreements for the senior secured notes and warrants have been paid in full, if Daniel C. Montano was required to make any payments pursuant to this guaranty prior to the payment in full of obligations, the Company will reimburse Daniel C. Montano for any such payments plus simple interest at 7% per annum from the date of the advance by Daniel C. Montano to the date reimbursed by the Company.

The notes were convertible at the option of the holder into the Companys common stock. Interest at 7% per annum, compounded annually, was payable within 30 days of when the notes payable were due or converted into shares of the Companys common stock. The conversion price for each share equaled $4 per share, provided however, if the purchase price of shares at the completion of the initial public offering was less than $8 per

offering. The notes were convertible at the option of the holder into the Companys common stock. Interest at 7% per annum, compounded annually, was payable within 30 days of when the convertible notes payable were due or converted into shares of the Companys common stock. The conversion price for each share equaled $4 per share, provided however, if the purchase price of shares at the completion of the initial public offering was less than $8 per share, the conversion price would have been adjusted to equal 50% of the IPO price.

Components of Interest Expense

During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company issued Series II and Series IIa convertible promissory notes with an imbedded beneficial conversion feature. As such, in accordance with EITF Issue No. 98-5, Accounting for Securities with Beneficial Conversion Feature or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio, and EITF Issue No. 00-27, Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments, the difference between the conversion price and the Companys estimated fair market value of its stock price on the commitment date of the notes was calculated to be $2,050,000. The Companys estimate of fair market
value resulting in a beneficial conversion feature was based on the Letter of Intent with the underwriters. This amount will be recognized in the statement of operations as interest expense during the period from the commitment date of the notes to the maturity dates of the notes.

All options were granted from the 2004 Stock Plan (defined on the next page). The fair value was estimated using Black-Scholes Model with an expected dividend yield of zero.

(a)

          All options were issued for the past services and therefore expensed on the date of grant.(b)

          All options were issued for future services and will be expensed over the vesting life of the options.(c)

          At December 31, 2007 the unexpensed value for unvested options is approximately $303,000 with an average vesting period of 1.85 years.

During the first quarter of 2007, as a function of law, 440,000 existing fully vested employee stock options with an exercise price of $0.30 were reclassified to a non-employee. The Company estimated the fair value on the date of transfer of the options to be $435,600 using the Black-Scholes Model and has reclassified the estimated fair value from equity to option derivative liability. The Black-Scholes Model assumptions were as follows: Expected life of 10 years, volatility of 71.22%, risk free rate of interest of 4.85% and an expected dividend yield of zero.

Note 13. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returned in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48) on January 1, 2007. The Company assessed the potential liability for all uncertain tax positions as required by FIN 48 at January 1, 2007 and, December 31, 2007 and the Company concluded that it has no uncertain tax positions that might give rise to potential tax liabilities or to amend the accumulated tax losses available to carry forward for application against future taxable income in each of the Company's taxing jurisdictions.

No interest or penalty related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense is required to be recognized for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Company is in the development stage and has incurred losses since its inception. All tax years from inception are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities, respectively. There are no income tax examinations currently in process.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Note 13. Income Taxes   (continued)

The adoption of FIN 48 created a reduction of the federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $950,000 respectively. A reduction of $255,660 in the federal research and development credit carryforward was also recognized in the current year. Typically under audit by federal taxing authorities these credits are reduced by thirty percent and as such the company has reflected this likelihood. In the current year the company reduced its federal research and development credit carryforward from $852,201 to $596,541.

As the Company has significant net operating loss carryforwards, even if certain of the Companys tax positions were disallowed, it is not foreseen that the Company would have to pay any taxes in the near future. Consequently, the Company does not calculate the impact of interest or penalties on amounts that might be disallowed.

Included in the Companys net operating loss carryforward at December 31, 2007, are tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Due to the impact of deferred tax accounting, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate.

Significant components of the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006, and 2007 were as follows:

The utilization of net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to the ownership change under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions.

The net operating loss carry-forwards are the only significant deferred income tax assets of the Company. They have been offset by a valuation allowance since management does not believe the recoverability of this deferred tax assets during the next fiscal year is more likely than not. Accordingly, a deferred income tax benefit for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, has not been recognized in these financial statements.

Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

In April 2004, the Company entered into a non-cancelable operating lease agreement for office space that requires monthly payments of $5,882 which expired in October 2005. On May 2004, the Company gave a deposit of $5,900. The Company vacated this facility in October 2005 and subsequently the deposit was refunded.

During 2004 and 2005, the Company sub-leased space from Phage for approximately $2,800 per month as part of the agreement for administrative services.

In November 2005, the Company entered into a five year operating lease for its corporate headquarters commencing on March 1, 2006. The lease provides for a renewal option for an additional five years. The lease provides for increases in annual rental payments of approximately 3%. Also, the agreement requires the Company to pay its share of certain common operating costs that are to be assessed annually. On May 23, 2007, Canta Rana Ranch, L.P., a California Limited Partnership (Canta Rana), released CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. (the Company) from its obligations under the Standard Lease Guaranty, executed by the Company
on March 15, 2006 (the Guaranty), in connection with the Standard Industrial Net Lease (the Phage Lease), dated March 15, 2006, between Phage Biotechnology Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (Phage) and Canta Rana. The Agreement Exchanging Lease Guaranties (the Agreement), executed by Canta Rana and the Company, among other parties, became effective on May 23, 2007 when the terms therein were satisfied and which effectiveness thereby terminated and superseded the Guaranty, which released the Company of any and all obligations of Phage under the Phage Lease. Also in relation to the termination of the Guaranty, the Indemnity and Reimbursement Agreement, dated March 15, 2006, between the Company and Phage that was executed in exchange for the Guaranty, automatically terminated on May 21, 2007, the effective date of the exchange of guaranties referenced in the Agreement.

The Company entered into a Second Amendment dated September 8, 2006 (to be effective as of September 1, 2006) for the expansion space use of administrative offices in Las Vegas. The Second Amendment commences on August 29, 2006 and shall run coterminous with the term of that certain lease, dated November 1, 2005 for the space, consisting of 7,348 square feet of rentable space and expires on February 28, 2011. In total, including the annual base rent the Company will pay approximately $381,000 in base rent for the expansion space throughout the term of the lease.

The Company entered into a Lease Agreement dated August 7, 2006 with Nancy Ridge LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company, for the use of general office and laboratory space in San Diego, CA. The lease commences on September 1, 2006 and expires on May 13, 2013, at which time the Company will have the option of extending the lease by five years on the same terms and conditions of the lease. The Company has paid Nancy Ridge a fully refundable security deposit in the amount of $58,000, and further agrees to pay $15,000 per month for the term of the lease for the use of 6,768 square feet of general office and laboratory space. The security deposit is
refundable thirty days upon termination of the lease.

The Company concluded that it would be more cost effective to continue outsourcing certain research and development activities than to increase its business activities in the San Diego laboratory facility. Accordingly, on March 14, 2008 the Company terminated its lease of the facility in San Diego in exchange for the amount of the security deposit of $57,805. There is no future liability after this date.

Phage Lease Guaranty (Now Terminated)

On May 23, 2007, Canta Rana Ranch, L.P., a California Limited Partnership (Canta Rana), released CardioVascular BioTherapeutics, Inc. (the Company) from its obligations under the Standard Lease Guaranty, executed by the Company on March 15, 2006 (the Guaranty), in connection with the Standard Industrial Net Lease (the Phage Lease), dated March 15, 2006, between Phage Biotechnology Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (Phage) and Canta Rana. The Agreement Exchanging Lease Guaranties (the Agreement), executed by Canta Rana and the Company, among other parties, became effective on
May 23, 2007 when the terms therein were satisfied and which effectiveness thereby terminated and superseded the Guaranty, which released the Company of any and all obligations of Phage under the Phage Lease. More specifically, the Company is no longer liable for the full performance of each and every obligation of Phage under the Phage Lease.

The Company entered into a Standard Lease Guaranty (the Lease Guaranty) dated March 15, 2006 of the Standard Industrial Net Lease dated March 15, 2006, entered into by Canta Rana Ranch, L.P., a California Limited Partnership and Phage, an affiliated private biotechnology company that manufactures recombinant protein drugs for the Company (the Lease Agreement). Pursuant to the Lease Guaranty, the Company guaranteed full performance of all of Phage's obligations under the Lease Agreement. This guaranty was terminated on May 23, 2007, whereby the Company was released from these obligations.

In August 2004, the Company guaranteed Phage's obligations under a non-cancelable operating lease for laboratory and office space at University of California Irvine Research Center. The lease is for 11,091 rentable square feet for the period March 1, 2004 through August 31, 2006, and provided for a monthly rent of approximately $35,500 plus shared building operating expenses. The lease along with the Company's guarantees expired during the third quarter of 2006.

In exchange for the Company's guarantee of the Lease Agreement, Phage entered into an Indemnity and Reimbursement Agreement dated as of March 15, 2006 (the Indemnity Agreement) under which it paid the Company certain guarantee fees. This Indemnity Agreement also terminated on May 23, 2007.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, the company earned $2,757 of guaranty fees from Phage.

Securities Act Compliance

Commencing in 2001 and ending in August 2004, the Company sold two series of convertible notes to investors who, with a few exceptions, were not residents or citizens of the United States. The Company made these sales in reliance on the fact that either the sales occurred outside the United States and were thus not subject to the jurisdiction of the Securities Act or were made to accredited investors pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by the Securities Act. The Company's counsel has advised that the availability of those exemptions cannot be determined with legal certainty and that it is possible that the sale of some of the series
of convertible notes may have violated the registration requirements of the Securities Act. As to most of those sales, a right of rescission may exist on which the statute of limitation has run out as of August 2007.

For those note holders that elected to convert to common stock and who have not sold that stock, the Company may have a contingent liability arising from the original purchase of the convertible notes that such note holders converted. That liability would extend for up to six years after the date of the sale of the applicable convertible note that was converted to common stock. The notes were converted at either $2.00 per share or $4.00 per share. All of the notes have been either converted into common stock or repaid in full.

The Company is unable to accurately estimate the likelihood or amount of potential liability that, if any, may arise for this contingency.

Government Regulation

Regulation by government authorities in the United States and foreign countries is a significant factor in the development, manufacture and marketing of drug products and in ongoing research and product development activities. Drug candidates will require regulatory approval by government agencies prior to commercialization. In particular, human therapeutic products are subject to rigorous pre-clinical studies and clinical trials and other approval procedures of the FDA and similar regulatory authorities in foreign countries. Various federal and state statutes and regulations also govern or influence testing, manufacturing, safety, labeling, storage
and record keeping related to such products and their marketing. The process of obtaining these approvals and the subsequent substantial compliance with appropriate federal and state statutes and regulations require the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources.

Pre-clinical studies are generally conducted in laboratory animals to evaluate the potential safety and the efficacy of a product. Drug developers submit the results of pre-clinical studies to the FDA as a part of an

investigational new drug application, which must be approved before clinical trials in humans may begin. Typically, clinical development of a new drug candidate involves three phases of clinical trials that are costly and time consuming. These Phases include:



Phase I

          

          Clinical trials are conducted with a small number of subjects to determine the early safety profile, maximum tolerated dose and pharmacokinetics of the product in human volunteers.Phase II

          

          Clinical trials are conducted with groups of patients afflicted with a specific disease in order to determine preliminary efficacy, optimal dosages and expanded evidence of safety.Phase III

          

          Large scale, multi-center, comparative trials are conducted with patients afflicted with a target disease in order to provide enough data to demonstrate with substantial evidence the efficacy and safety the FDA requires.

The FDA closely monitors the progress of clinical trials that are conducted in the United States and may, at its discretion, reevaluate, alter, suspend or terminate the testing based upon the data accumulated to that point and the FDA's assessment of the risk/benefit ratio to the patient.

Litigation

The Company may become involved in various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is not involved in any litigation at this time that is material to its business and is unaware of any material claims that may be filed against it.
