TRIMERIS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Trimeris, Inc.
(Trimeris or the Company) is a biopharmaceutical company primarily engaged in the commercialization of a new class of antiviral drug treatments called fusion inhibitors. Fusion inhibitors prevent viral fusion, a complex
process by which viruses attach to, penetrate and infect host cells. If a virus cannot enter a host cell, the virus cannot replicate. By inhibiting the fusion process of particular types of viruses, like the Human Immunodeficiency Virus
(HIV), our first commercial product, T-20, and our development-stage compound, TRI-1144, offer a novel mechanism of action to treat and potentially prevent the transmission of HIV.

Trimeris has a worldwide agreement (the Development and License Agreement) with F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., (Roche) to develop and
market T-20, marketed as FUZEON, whose generic name is enfuvirtide. FUZEON is manufactured and distributed by Roche through Roches sales and distribution network throughout the world in countries where regulatory approval has been received.
The Company shares gross profits equally from the sale of FUZEON in the United States and Canada with Roche, and receives a royalty based on net sales of FUZEON outside the United States and Canada.

The Development and License Agreement with Roche accounted for 100% of the Companys royalty revenue for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008. The Development and License Agreement also provides substantially all of the Companys collaboration and milestone revenue. Substantially all of the accounts receivable at June 30, 2009 and December 31,
2008 is comprised of receivables from Roche owing under the Development and License Agreement.

The accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) regulations for interim financial information. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations have been made. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results that may be expected for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations sections and the 2008 financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the SEC on March 13, 2009.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME PER SHARE

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (SFAS No. 128), basic net income per common share is calculated by
dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share reflects the maximum dilutive effect of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options, restricted stock, stock
warrants and purchases under the Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Employee Stock Purchase Plan). The dilutive effect of outstanding options, restricted stock, stock warrants and purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase
Plan is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method, which includes consideration of stock-based compensation required by SFAS No. 123 (R), Share-Based Payment. The following table sets forth
the computation of basic and diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The calculation of diluted net income per share excludes all anti-dilutive shares. For the three
and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the number of anti-dilutive shares issuable upon exercise of options that were excluded, as calculated based on the weighted average closing price of the Companys common stock for these
periods, amounted to approximately 2.1 million and 2.7 million, respectively. Also excluded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were 362,000 warrants to purchase common stock, due to their anti-dilutive effect.

At June 30, 2009, there were 2,100,000 options to purchase common stock, 30,000 shares of restricted stock that vest in August 2011,
and 362,000 warrants to purchase common stock outstanding. At June 30, 2008, there were 2,700,000 options to purchase common stock, 85,000 shares of restricted stock/restricted stock units that vested in March 2009 and 362,000 warrants to
purchase common stock outstanding.

3. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, approximately $128,000 and $189,000, respectively, was charged to interest expense for the accretion of the liability resulting from the Companys share of
estimated selling and marketing expenses. The Company recorded a liability of $15.6 million during 2004, as part of collaboration loss, which represented the net present value of the Companys estimated share of these expenses, based on the
expected timing and terms of payment under the Development and License Agreement. No cash was paid for interest during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

4. ROCHE COLLABORATION

The Development and License Agreement

In July 1999, the Company entered into a Development and License Agreement with Roche to develop and commercialize T-20, currently marketed as FUZEON,
whose generic name is enfuvirtide, and T-1249, or a replacement compound. The Development and License Agreement has been amended several times; most recently in March 2007, the agreement was amended to cover only the development and
commercialization of FUZEON. The Development and License Agreement will effectively terminate upon the expiration of the last relevant patent covering FUZEON. Our present understanding is that this expiration date will occur in 2021.

The Development and License Agreement, as amended, grants Roche an exclusive, worldwide license for FUZEON. Under this agreement, a joint management
committee consisting of members from Trimeris and Roche oversees the strategy for the collaboration. Roche may terminate its license for a particular country in its sole discretion with advance notice. In addition, the Development and License
Agreement gives Roche significant control over important aspects of the commercialization of FUZEON, including but not limited to pricing, sales force activities and promotional activities. Under the Development and License Agreement, Roche cannot
adopt a budget for the marketing of FUZEON above certain limits without the agreement of the Company.

As mentioned above, in March 2007,
the Company entered into an agreement with Roche that amended the terms of both the Development and License Agreement and the Research Agreement (defined below). This amendment provided that all intellectual property that was formerly shared between
the companies, other than intellectual property related to FUZEON, would now belong solely to Trimeris. The returned intellectual property covers both research and development stage molecules, including T-1249. Currently, there are no patients being
treated with T-1249. Following the March 2007 amendment, Roche is responsible for only one remaining $5.0 million milestone under the Development and License Agreement payable upon the achievement of a certain cumulative twelve-month sales threshold
for FUZEON in the United States and Canada.

Collaboration Income

Product sales of FUZEON began in the United States in March 2003 and are recorded by Roche. Under the Development and License Agreement with Roche, the
Company shares gross profit from the sale of FUZEON in the United States and Canada equally

with Roche. Collaboration income is calculated as follows: Total gross sales of FUZEON in the United States and Canada is reduced by any discounts, returns
or rebates resulting in total net sales. Net sales are reduced by costs of goods sold resulting in gross profit. Gross profit is reduced by certain selling, marketing, and other expenses and post-marketing commitments related to the sale of FUZEON
resulting in operating income or loss. The Companys share of the operating income or loss is reported as collaboration income or loss as a component of revenue. Total net sales of FUZEON in the United States and Canada were $9.7 million and
$16.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Total net sales of FUZEON in the United States and Canada were $19.7 million and $33.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the gross profit from the sale of FUZEON exceeded the sales, marketing and other expenses resulting in the Companys share of operating profit from the sale of FUZEON in
the United States of $1.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the gross profit from the sale of FUZEON exceeded the sales, marketing and other expenses resulting in the Companys
share of operating profit from the sale of FUZEON in the United States of $3.9 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Revenue is recognized when Roche ships the drug and title and risk of loss passes to wholesalers. FUZEON is widely available
through retail pharmacies and wholesalers across North America.

Roche is responsible for the manufacture, sales, marketing and
distribution of FUZEON. Roche manufactures bulk quantities of FUZEON drug substance in its Boulder, Colorado facility and produces finished drug product from bulk drug substance at another Roche facility. The finished drug product is then shipped to
a Roche facility for distribution. Roches sales force is responsible for selling FUZEON. Under the Development and License Agreement with Roche, the Company does not have the ability or rights to co-market this drug or field its own FUZEON
sales force. All third party contracts for manufacturing, distribution, sale, and reimbursement are between Roche and the third party. The Company is not a party to any of the material contracts in these areas. Roche provides the Company with
information on manufacturing, sales and distribution of FUZEON. Roche is responsible for estimating reductions to gross sales for expected returns of expired products, government rebate programs, such as Medicaid reimbursements, and customer
incentives, such as cash discounts for prompt payment. The Company reviews these items for accuracy and reasonableness.

Roche prepares
estimates for sales returns and allowances, discounts and rebates based primarily on its historical experience with FUZEON and other anti-HIV drugs and their estimates of the payor mix for FUZEON, updated for changes in facts and circumstances on a
quarterly basis. If actual results differ from these estimates, these estimates will be adjusted, which could have an effect on results of operations in the period of adjustment.

Accrued Marketing Costs

The Company
and Roche agreed to limit the Companys actual cash contribution to the FUZEON selling and marketing expenses in 2004 to approximately $11.2 million, even though Roche spent significantly more on these expenses. If certain cumulative levels of
sales for FUZEON in the United States and Canada are achieved, the Companys share of the additional expenses incurred by Roche during 2004 will be payable to Roche beginning at a future date over several years from that future date. During the
fourth quarter of 2008, we revised our estimate of the date that payments will begin from 2017 to 2022. During 2004, the Company recorded $15.6 million as part of collaboration loss, which represented the net present value of the Companys
estimated share of the expenses that were in excess of approximately $11.2 million. This amount was determined by taking into account the expected timing and terms of payment under the Development and License Agreement, discounted at a risk free
interest rate. The Company is increasing the liability over time to the expected payment amount. For the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company increased the recorded liability by $64,000 and $95,000, respectively, for accretion
of interest. For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company increased the recorded liability by $128,000 and $189,000, respectively, for accretion of interest. The total liability of $18.4 and $18.3 million at June 30, 2009
and December 31, 2008 is reflected on our balance sheets under the caption Accrued marketing costs.

The accrued marketing
costs apply only to the 2004 FUZEON marketing costs; with respect to both 2009 and 2008, there are no accrued marketing costs.

Advanced
PaymentRoche

In September 2005, the Company entered into a Letter of Amendment (the Manufacturing Amendment) with
Roche, which amended the Development and License Agreement and set forth certain rights and responsibilities that the parties previously agreed to with respect to the manufacture and sale of FUZEON. The Company was obligated to pay Roche for the
Companys share of the capital invested in Roches manufacturing facility over a seven-year period. As a result, Roche no longer include the depreciation related to the manufacturing facility in cost of goods sold.

Under the terms of the Manufacturing Amendment, the Companys contribution to the capital improvements made at Roches manufacturing facility
is to be reviewed on an annual basis. Following such review, the Companys contribution will be adjusted, when necessary, to reflect changes to the relative geographic distribution of FUZEON sales. During the first quarter of 2008, the Company
and Roche reviewed certain FUZEON sales data which resulted in a change in the amount of the Companys contribution to the capital investment. Following this 2008 review, the Company expected to contribute approximately $12.1 million towards
the

capital investment as compared to its previous expectation of approximately $12.8 million. As of June 30, 2009, the Company has paid the total $12.1
million contribution.

These payments, net of the portion allocated to cost of goods sold, were recorded as an asset presented as
Advanced payment  Roche. This asset is amortized based on an estimate of the units of FUZEON sold during the collaboration period in order to properly allocate the capital investment to cost of goods sold as the related inventory
is sold in future periods. Assuming sales of FUZEON continue, the Company estimates that this asset has a remaining useful life of approximately 12 years. The carrying value of this asset will be evaluated for impairment if an event occurs that
triggers an impairment review.

Under the Manufacturing Amendment, if the Roche-owned facilities in Boulder, Colorado used for the
manufacture of FUZEON, are used to produce other products for Roche, a credit to the collaboration will result. The Companys share of this credit was approximately $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. These credits have
been recorded on the Companys balance sheets as a reduction to the Advanced payment  Roche. These credits offset variances that would otherwise have been allocated to FUZEON if the facilities had remained underutilized and
will be recognized when the related FUZEON produced during these periods is sold.

Royalty Revenue

The Company receives royalties on sales of FUZEON in countries outside of the United States and Canada. Roche is responsible for all activities related to
FUZEON outside of the United States and Canada, including regulatory, manufacturing, sales and distribution. These royalties are recognized as revenue when the sales are made by Roche. To calculate the royalty revenue, an 8% distribution charge is
deducted from Roches reported net sales, from which the Company receives a 12% royalty. Royalties of $2.1 million and $2.5 million were recognized as revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Royalties of
$4.1 million and $5.3 million were recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Development Expenses

Under the Development and License Agreement, development costs for FUZEON are shared equally.
Development typically includes certain clinical and pre-clinical studies performed on a clinical candidate compound, as well as post-marketing commitments related to approved drugs. Currently only Roche incurs development costs for FUZEON.
Quarterly, the companies reconcile the amounts expended and one party pays the other party on a 50/50 basis. Roche holds the Investigational New Drug (IND) and the New Drug Application (NDA) for FUZEON and is responsible for
all regulatory issues, maintenance activities and communications with the FDA. On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue Number 07-1
Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements. As a result, all development expenses generated at Roche related to FUZEON are included in the Companys collaboration income. Prior to January 1, 2009, such amounts were presented in
research and development expenses. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation.

5. COMPREHENSIVE
INCOME

SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive
income or loss and its components. Comprehensive income includes all non-owner changes in equity during a period and is divided into two broad classifications: net income and other comprehensive income (OCI). OCI includes revenue,
expenses, gains, and losses that are excluded from earnings under generally accepted accounting principles. For the Company, OCI consists of unrealized gains or losses on securities available-for-sale, and actuarial gains and losses and prior
service costs for the post-retirement health insurance plan that have not been recognized as components of net periodic post-retirement benefit costs.

The table below presents the Companys OCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (in thousands):

6. INVESTMENT SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE

Investment securities, which consist of corporate bonds, Euro-dollar bonds, and medium and short-term notes, are classified as available-for-sale, and are
reported at fair value based on quoted market prices and other observable inputs. The cost of securities sold is determined using the specific identification method when computing realized gains and losses. Unrealized gains and losses are included
as a component of stockholders equity until realized.

In accordance with its investment policy, the Company limits the amount of
credit exposure with any one issuer and the investments are generally not collateralized.

Investment securities include an investment of
approximately $2.2 million at June 30, 2009 in Bank of America Corporations Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio (the Fund). In December 2007, Columbia Management Group, LLC, the Funds manager, determined that the
assets of the Fund had declined in fair value and the Fund would no longer seek to maintain a net asset value (NAV) of one dollar per share. As a result, the Funds NAV began to fluctuate based on changes in the market values of the
assets owned by the Fund. The Fund ceased accepting orders for new shares and began an orderly liquidation of Fund assets for distribution to its shareholders. At June 30, 2009, the Funds NAV was $0.8717 per share. For the quarter ended
June 30, 2009, we recorded an increase of $101,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income and a realized gain of $22,000 related to this investment.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, (SFAS
No. 157) effective January 1, 2008 for financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis. SFAS No. 157 applies to all financial assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis.
There was no impact to the financial statements upon the adoption of SFAS No. 157. SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The statement requires fair value
measurements be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

|-------- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Level 1: |  | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets and liabilities.           
|         | 
|Level 2: |  | Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
|         | 
|Level 3: |  | Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.                                   

A financial instruments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level
of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Companys assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring
basis are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The types of instruments valued based on quoted market prices in active markets include most money market securities, corporate and euro dollar bonds, and medium
and short-term notes. Such instruments are generally classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The types of instruments
valued based on quoted prices in less active markets, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency, include the Bank of America Corporations Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio.

The following table sets forth, by level, within the fair value hierarchy, financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value under SFAS

The carrying value of other financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts
payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

7. INCOME TAXES

We recognized income tax expense of $1,779,000 and $63,000 for the six months ending June 30, 2009 and 2008. For 2009, the Company believes, based on
current estimates, that the effective annual blended tax rate is approximately 34.2%.

At December 31, 2008, the Company has net
operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) for federal tax purposes of approximately $302.4 million, which expire in varying amounts between 2018 and 2025. We determined that an ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (IRC), as amended, occurred during 2008. The effect of this ownership change was the imposition of a $457,000 annual limitation on the use of NOL carryforwards attributable to periods before the change.

##### Table of Contents

This annual limitation will result in the expiration of NOL carryforwards before they become available for utilization. Based on the $457,000 annual
limitation, the Company anticipates that a total of approximately $7.8 million of NOL carryforwards will be available for utilization prior to 2025.

In the fourth quarter of 2008, we recognized a deferred tax benefit of $506,000 related to the anticipated future use of some of our federal net operating loss carryovers. In the future, we may reduce the valuation
allowance over our federal net operating loss carryovers and recognize an additional deferred tax benefit. Management assesses this potential based upon all available evidence, including the last eleven quarters of profitability and forecasts. At
the end of the second quarter, management determined that it was not appropriate to reduce the valuation allowance to recognize additional benefit.

The Company continues to carry a full valuation allowance on its other deferred tax assets, the majority of which represent net operating loss carry forwards and tax credit carryovers which we generated prior to achieving profitability.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Under the
Development and License Agreement, Trimeris and Roche are obligated to share equally the future development expenses for FUZEON for the United States and Canada.

In 2004, the Company entered into a sublease agreement for its office and laboratory space in Morrisville, North Carolina. The sublease called for the payment of a security deposit for which the Company has paid
$126,000 as of September 30, 2008. On May 18, 2009, Trimeris entered into an agreement releasing the Company from these future lease obligations. The total consideration paid by the Company for the release of these future lease obligations
was $1.8 million, of which $1.3 million was expensed in prior periods and $496,000, related to real estate commissions, was expensed in the second quarter of 2009.

On November 20, 2007, the Company was informed that Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc. (Novartis) had filed suit against Hoffman-La Roche Inc., Roche Laboratories Inc., Roche Colorado Corp., and
F. Hoffman- La Roche Ltd. (collectively the Roche Entities) and Trimeris alleging infringement of Novartis U.S. Patent No. 7,285,271 B1, entitled Antigenic Composition Comprising an HIV gag or env Polypeptide (the
271 Patent) related to the manufacture, sale and offer for sale of FUZEON. The lawsuit was filed in the Eastern District of Texas (Marshal Division).

The 271 Patent that is the subject of the infringement suit was granted to Novartis on October 23, 2007. On March 7, 2008, the Company received formal service of the complaint in this case and on
May 29, 2008, Roche and Trimeris filed an answer and counterclaim requesting relief on several grounds including non-infringement, patent invalidity, unenforceability and double-patenting. Also on May 29, 2008, Roche and Trimeris filed a
motion to transfer venue to the Eastern District of North Carolina or, in the alternative, dismiss Trimeris pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. On July 30, 2008, Novartis filed an answer to the Roche-Trimeris counterclaims. On
August 1, 2008, Roche and Trimeris filed a reply in support of Trimeris motion to transfer. On September 3, 2008, the Court dismissed the Roche-Trimeris motion for transfer of venue without prejudice. On October 10, 2008, Roche
and Trimeris filed a renewed motion to transfer. On February 3, 2009, the Court denied the renewed Roche and Trimeris requests for transfer. On March 3, 2009, Trimeris and Roche filed invalidity contentions with the court. On May 18,
2009, Roche and Trimeris filed motions for summary judgment. On June 12, 2009, Roche and Trimeris filed a motion for reconsideration of the order denying transfer. On August 3, 2009, the Court issued an order denying the Roche and Trimeris
motion for reconsideration of the order denying transfer. No trial date has been scheduled and the outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. In connection with its suit, Novartis is seeking unspecified money damages, attorneys
fees and injunctive relief which, if successful, would prevent Roche and Trimeris from manufacturing and selling FUZEON.

9. REDUCTION IN WORKFORCE

During November 2006, the Company announced a shift in strategic emphasis and reorganization to focus on FUZEON profitability and research
and early stage development. With this shift in strategic emphasis, the Company reduced its workforce by approximately 25% and recognized expense of $3.2 million for severance and other costs in the fourth quarter of 2006.

During March 2007, as a continued part of the shift in strategic emphasis, the Company again reduced its workforce by approximately 25% and recognized
expense of $4.3 million for severance and other costs in the first quarter of 2007. Of this $4.3 million, $870,000 was related to the acceleration of vesting of restricted stock and is excluded from the table below.

During April 2007, as a continued part of the shift in strategic emphasis, the Company reduced its workforce by approximately 7% and recognized expense
of $77,000 for severance and other costs in the second quarter of 2007.

During December 2007, the Company implemented a reduction in force
in connection with a 2008 strategic plan to maximize cash flows from FUZEON, while also advancing TRI-1144 to a value creating milestone. In connection with the strategic plan and as

a result of the reduction in force, the Company will no longer staff any research and development functions. The Company recognized expense of $1.7 million
for severance and other costs during the fourth quarter of 2007 related to this 2008 strategic plan.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 10, 2009, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Trimeris, Inc. approved the dismissal of KPMG LLP (KPMG) as Trimeris principal Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On July 10, 2009, KPMG was dismissed.

The audit reports of KPMG on the financial statements of Trimeris as of and for the years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

The audit reports of KPMG on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 did not contain an
adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During Trimeris fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the subsequent interim period through July 10, 2009, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to KPMGs satisfaction would have caused KPMG to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports on
Trimeris consolidated financial statements for such years.

There were no reportable events, as defined in
Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K during Trimeris fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the interim period through July 10, 2009.

Trimeris has provided KPMG with a copy of the above disclosures prior to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on July 16, 2009, and requested KPMG
to furnish Trimeris with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not KPMG agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter received from KPMG in response to such request, which is dated July 16, 2009, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to
the Current Report on Form 8-K. On July 14, 2009, the Audit

Committee of the Board of Directors of Trimeris engaged Ernst & Young LLP (EY) as Trimeris principal Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.

During Trimeris fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and
2007 and the subsequent interim period through July 14, 2009, neither Trimeris nor anyone on its behalf engaged EY regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type
of audit opinion that might be rendered on Trimeris financial statements or (ii) any matter subject to a disagreement or a reportable event, and no written report or oral advice of EY was provided to Trimeris that EY concluded was an
important factor considered by Trimeris in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues; or any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable event as defined in Regulation S-K,
Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v), respectively.

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the time of filing this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. We are not aware of any significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material
impact on our Financial Statements.

Executive Summary

Trimeris is a biopharmaceutical company primarily engaged in the commercialization
of a class of antiviral drug treatments called fusion inhibitors. Fusion inhibitors prevent viral fusion, a complex process by which viruses attach to, penetrate and infect host cells. If a virus cannot enter a host cell, the virus cannot replicate.
By inhibiting the fusion process of particular types of viruses, like the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), our first commercial product, T-20, and our development-stage compound, TRI-1144, offer a novel mechanism of action to treat
and potentially prevent the transmission of HIV.

Trimeris has a worldwide agreement (the Development and License Agreement)
with F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., or Roche, to develop and market T-20, marketed as FUZEON, whose generic name is enfuvirtide. FUZEON is manufactured and distributed by Roche through Roches sales and distribution network throughout
the world in countries where regulatory approval has been received. The Company shares gross profits equally from the sale of FUZEON in the United States and Canada with Roche, and receives a royalty based on net sales of FUZEON outside the United
States and Canada.

For the second quarter of 2009, the Company recorded net income of $1.3 million, or $0.06 per share, compared to
$590,000, or $0.03 per share, in the second quarter of 2008. This increase was primarily driven by decreased operating expenses offset, in part, by decreased FUZEON® sales and an increase in tax expense.

2009 will continue to be a year of transition for Trimeris:



| |  |  | Strategic Alternatives  We will continue to evaluate strategic alternatives to enhance shareholder value.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Profitability  We will focus our efforts on maintaining profitability based on FUZEON sales.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Competition  The market introduction of three new oral agents in late 2007 early 2008 significantly impacted FUZEON sales in 2008 and into 2009. We have
noticed that weekly prescription trends (a leading indicator for FUZEON sales) for FUZEON have begun to stabilize. Future FUZEON prescription trends will depend on the further refinement of the optimal regimen for treatment experienced patients and
the role of FUZEON in these regimens.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | FUZEON Sales and Marketing  We believe that our selling and marketing expense in 2009 will be lower than 2008, as we have exercised again our right under our
Development and License Agreement with Roche that prevents Roche from adopting a budget for the marketing of FUZEON above a certain limit without our consent.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Novartis Litigation  We, along with our partner Roche, are working with outside counsel to come to the most expedient and satisfactory resolution of the
patent infringement suit brought by Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cost of Goods Sold  We have exercised our rights under the Development and License Agreement and entered into negotiations with Roche related to excess
capacity charges and cost of goods sold variances for 2008 and overall cost of goods sold for 2009. Accordingly, we cannot accurately determine if cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales will increase, decrease or remain the same in the
future. Although active discussions are on-going, we cannot be certain when a final resolution will be reached. Depending upon the resolution of our negotiations with Roche, cost of goods sold may increase or decrease in future periods.

On May 18, 2009, we entered into an agreement releasing us from $8.3 million in future lease obligations relating
to our former corporate office and research facility. The total consideration paid by the Company for release of the future lease obligations was $1.8 million of which $1.3 million was expensed in periods prior to the second quarter of 2009. The
remaining consideration, or $496,000, related to real estate commissions was expensed in the second quarter of 2009.

Royalty revenue: Royalty revenue represents the royalty payments earned from Roche
based on total net sales of FUZEON outside the United States and Canada and will continue until all patents covering FUZEON, licensed to Roche, on a country by country basis have expired. Sales of FUZEON outside the United States and Canada began in
June 2003. To calculate the royalty revenue, an 8% distribution charge is deducted from Roches reported net sales, from which the Company receives a 12% royalty. Royalty revenue decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008 as a result of decreased net sales of FUZEON outside the U.S. and Canada. Net sales of FUZEON outside the U.S. and Canada for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, were $19.4
million and $22.2 million, respectively.

Collaboration income:The table below presents our collaboration income (United States and
Canada) for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008. Collaboration income is reported on our Statements of Operations as a component of revenue. Under our Development and License Agreement with
Roche, we share gross profit equally from the sale of FUZEON in the United States and Canada. The sharing of expenses is according to contractual arrangements and is not equal in all cases. FUZEON was launched commercially in March 2003. FUZEON
sales have been significantly impacted by the market introduction of three new oral HIV agents in late 2007 and early 2008.

|* | We have exercised our right under our Development and License Agreement with Roche that prevents Roche from adopting a budget for the marketing of FUZEON above a certain limit
without our consent. As a result, the Companys and Roches share of the collaboration income was not equal in the second quarter of 2009 or 2008. Depending on the level of marketing expenses for 2009, our share of the collaboration profit
may continue to be greater than that of Roche.

Gross FUZEON sales by Roche: Revenue is recognized when Roche ships drug and title and risk of
loss passes to wholesalers.

The table below presents the number of kits shipped to wholesalers in the U.S. and Canada during 2009 and
2008.

|             |  |       |  |       

Sales adjustments:Sales adjustments are recorded by Roche based on their experience with
selling FUZEON. Based on discussions with Roche, we expect sales adjustments for 2009 to fall within a range of 16% to 18% of gross sales for 2009.

Cost of goods sold:We have exercised our rights under the Development and License Agreement and entered into negotiations with Roche related to excess capacity charges and cost of goods sold variances for 2008 and overall cost of
goods sold for 2009. Accordingly, we cannot accurately determine if cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales will increase, decrease or remain the same in the future. Although active discussions are on-going, we cannot be certain when a final
resolution will be reached. Depending upon the resolution of our negotiations with Roche, cost of goods sold may increase or decrease in future periods.

During 2008, we recorded a reserve for 2008 excess capacity charges in the amount of $4.1 million to be shared equally between Roche and Trimeris. In the first quarter of 2009, Roche informed us that actual excess
capacity charges for 2008 were $1.9 million. The difference of $2.2 million has been recorded as a credit to cost of goods sold for the first quarter of 2009. Trimeris share of this credit was $1.1 million. We are disputing with Roche the remainder
of the excess capacity charges for 2008. The resolution of this dispute may result in an additional credit to cost of goods sold for the collaboration in future periods.

Selling and marketing expenses: We have exercised our right under our Development and License Agreement with Roche that prevents Roche from adopting a budget for the marketing of FUZEON above a certain limit
without our consent. As a result, the Companys and Roches share of the collaboration income was not equal in the second quarter of 2009 or 2008. Depending on the level of marketing expenses for 2009, our share of the collaboration profit
may continue to be greater than that of Roche.

Roche development expenses: On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue Number 07-1 Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements. As a result, all development expenses generated at Roche related to FUZEON are included in the
Companys collaboration income. Prior to January 1, 2009, such amounts were presented in research and development expenses. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation.

Under the Development and License Agreement, development costs for FUZEON are shared equally with Roche. Development typically includes certain clinical
and pre-clinical studies performed on a clinical candidate compound, as well as post-marketing commitments related to approved drugs. Currently only Roche incurs development costs for FUZEON. Roche holds the Investigational New Drug
(IND) and the New Drug Application (NDA) for FUZEON and is responsible for all regulatory issues, maintenance activities and communications with the FDA.

Other costs:Other costs for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 include general and administrative costs and distribution charges.
The Company is responsible for 50% of these costs under the Development and License Agreement.

Costs exclusive to the Company:Costs exclusive to the Company includes license fees, based on net sales of FUZEON, for certain technology paid to a third party.

Research and Development Expenses

The table below presents our research and development expenses for the three
months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008.

On January 1, 2009, we adopted EITF 07-1 Accounting for Collaborative
Arrangements. As a result, we reclassified $221,000 from research and development expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2008 to collaboration income (see discussion above Collaboration Income).

Total research and development expenses for 2008 primarily related to the preclinical development of the next generation HIV fusion inhibitor peptide
TRI-1144 for which the Company has subsequently discontinued research and development. The Company no longer incurs any research and development expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

The table below presents our general and administrative
expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Total general and administrative expenses: Total general and administrative expenses decreased for
the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, primarily as a result of the following:



| |  |  | In May 2009, we entered into an agreement releasing us from $8.3 million in future lease obligations relating our former corporate office and research facility. The
total consideration paid by the Company for release of the future lease obligations was $1.8 million of which $1.3 million was expensed in prior periods. The remaining consideration, or $496,000, related to real estate commissions was expensed in
the second quarter of 2009.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In the second quarter of 2008, we shut-down our corporate offices and research facility and relocated to smaller office space. Under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, in the second quarter of 2008, we recorded a liability and non-cash expense of $939,000 based on the remaining rental payments reduced by
estimated sublease rental income.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Decreased employee costs and other expenses as a result of reduced headcount and general business activities.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease in 2009, when compared to 2008, as a result of the 2008 strategic plan which eliminated most
general and administrative personnel at Trimeris after June 30, 2008 and reduced operating lease expenses.

Loss on disposal of
equipment:The table below presents the loss on the disposal of equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

The loss on disposal of equipment for 2008 is due to the Company writing off its property,
furniture and equipment due to the Company relocating its corporate office and shutting down the previous laboratory and office space.

Interest income decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2009 primarily due to lower
cash balances as a result of the special dividends paid in 2008.

There was a realized gain on investments for the three months ended
June 30, 2009 as a result of our redemptions of our investment in Bank of America Corporations Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio (the Fund). In December 2007, Columbia Management Group, LLC, the Funds manager,
determined that the assets of the Fund had declined in fair value and the Fund would no longer seek to maintain a net asset value (NAV) of one dollar per share. As a result, the Funds NAV began to fluctuate based on changes in the
market values of the assets owned by the Fund. The Fund ceased accepting orders for new shares and began an orderly liquidation of Fund assets for distribution to its shareholders. At June 30, 2009, the Funds NAV was $0.8717 per share.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we recorded an increase of $101,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income and a realized gain of $22,000 related to this investment.

Interest expense relates to the accretion of the excess marketing expenses recorded on the balance sheets as Accrued marketing costs. The
Company and Roche agreed to limit the Companys actual cash contribution to the FUZEON selling and marketing expenses in 2004 to approximately $11.2 million, even though Roche spent significantly more on these expenses. If certain cumulative
levels of sales for FUZEON in the United States and Canada are achieved, the Companys share of the additional expenses incurred by Roche during 2004 will be payable to Roche beginning at a future date over several years from that future date.
During the fourth quarter of 2008, we revised our estimate of the date that payments will begin from 2017 to 2022. During 2004, the Company recorded $15.6 million as part of collaboration loss, which represented the net present value of the
Companys estimated share of the expenses that were in excess of approximately $11.2 million. This amount was determined by taking into account the expected timing and terms of payment under the Development and License Agreement, discounted at
a risk free interest rate. The Company is increasing the liability over time to the expected payment amount. For the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company increased the recorded liability by $64,000 and $95,000, respectively,
for accretion of interest. The total liability of $18.4 and $18.3 million at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 is reflected on our balance sheets.

Income Tax Provision

We recognized income tax expense of $735,000 in the second
quarter of 2009 compared to an income tax provision of $194,000 in the second quarter of 2008. For 2009, the Company believes, based on current estimates, that the effective annual blended tax rate is approximately 34.2%.

At December 31, 2008, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) for federal tax purposes of approximately $302.4 million,
which expire in varying amounts between 2018 and 2025. We determined that an ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC), as amended, occurred during 2008. The effect of this ownership change was
the imposition of a $457,000 annual limitation on the use of NOL carryforwards attributable to periods before the change. This annual limitation will result in the expiration of NOL carryforwards before they become available for utilization. Based
on the $457,000 annual limitation, the Company anticipates that a total of approximately $7.8 million of NOL carryforwards will be available for utilization prior to 2025.

In the fourth quarter of 2008, we recognized a deferred tax benefit of $506,000 related to the anticipated future use of some of our federal net
operating loss carryovers. In the future, we may reduce the valuation allowance over our federal net operating loss carryovers and recognize an additional deferred tax benefit. Management assesses this potential based upon all available evidence,
including the last eleven quarters of profitability and forecasts. At the end of the first quarter, management determined that it was not appropriate to reduce the valuation allowance to recognize additional benefit.

The company continues to carry a full valuation allowance on its other deferred tax assets, the majority
of which represent net operating loss carry forwards and tax credit carryovers which we generated prior to achieving profitability.

Royalty revenue: Royalty revenue represents the royalty payments earned from Roche based on
total net sales of FUZEON outside the United States and Canada and will continue until all patents covering FUZEON, licensed to Roche, on a country by country basis have expired. Sales of FUZEON outside the United States and Canada began in June
2003. To calculate the royalty revenue, an 8% distribution charge is deducted from Roches reported net sales, from which the Company receives a 12% royalty. Royalty revenue decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to
the six months ended June 30 2008, as a result of decreased net sales of FUZEON outside the U.S. and Canada. Net sales of FUZEON outside the U.S. and Canada for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, were $37.2 million and $47.9
million, respectively.

Collaboration income:The table below presents our collaboration income (United States and Canada) for the
six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. Collaboration income is reported on our Statements of Operations as a component of revenue. Under our Development and License Agreement with Roche, we share
gross profits equally from the sale of FUZEON in the United States and Canada. The sharing of expenses is according to contractual arrangements and is not equal in all cases. FUZEON was launched commercially in March 2003. FUZEON sales have been
significantly impacted by the market introduction of three new oral HIV agents in late 2007 and early 2008.

|* | We have exercised our right under our Development and License Agreement with Roche that prevents Roche from adopting a budget for the marketing of FUZEON above a certain limit
without our consent. As a result, the Companys and Roches share of the collaboration income was not equal in the first half of 2009 or 2008. Depending on the level of marketing expenses for 2009 our share of the collaboration profit may
continue to be greater than that of Roche.

Gross FUZEON sales by Roche: Revenue is recognized when Roche ships drug
and title and risk of loss passes to wholesalers.

The table below presents the number of kits shipped to wholesalers in the U.S. and
Canada during 2009 and 2008.

Sales adjustments:Sales adjustments are recorded by Roche based on their experience with
selling FUZEON. Based on discussions with Roche, we expect sales adjustments for 2009 to fall within a range of 16% to 18% of gross sales for 2009.

Cost of goods sold:We have exercised our rights under the Development and License Agreement and entered into negotiations with Roche related to excess capacity charges and cost of goods sold variances for 2008 and overall cost of
goods sold for 2009. Accordingly, we cannot accurately determine if cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales will increase, decrease or remain the same in the future. Although active discussions are on-going, we cannot be certain when a final
resolution will be reached. Depending upon the resolution of our negotiations with Roche, cost of goods sold may increase or decrease in future periods.

During 2008, we recorded a reserve for 2008 excess capacity charges in the amount of $4.1 million to be shared equally between Roche and Trimeris. In the first quarter of 2009, Roche informed us that actual excess
capacity charges for 2008 were $1.9 million. The difference of $2.2 million has been recorded as a credit to cost of goods sold for the first quarter of 2009. Trimeris share of this credit was $1.1 million. We are disputing with Roche the remainder
of the excess capacity charges for 2008. The resolution of this dispute may result in an additional credit to cost of goods sold for the collaboration in future periods.

Selling and marketing expenses: We have exercised our right under our Development and License
Agreement with Roche that prevents Roche from adopting a budget for the marketing of FUZEON above a certain limit without our consent. As a result, the Companys and Roches share of the collaboration income was not equal in the first half
of 2009 or 2008. Depending on the level of marketing expenses for 2009, our share of the collaboration profit may continue to be greater than that of Roche.

Roche development expenses: On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue Number 07-1 Accounting for
Collaborative Arrangements. As a result all development expenses, generated at Roche, related to FUZEON are included in the Companys collaboration income. Prior to January 1, 2009, such amounts were presented in research and
development expenses. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation.

Under the
Development and License Agreement, development costs for FUZEON are shared equally with Roche. Development typically includes certain clinical and pre-clinical studies performed on a clinical candidate compound, as well as post-marketing commitments
related to approved drugs. Currently only Roche incurs development costs for FUZEON. Roche holds the Investigational New Drug (IND) and the New Drug Application (NDA) for FUZEON and is responsible for all regulatory issues,
maintenance activities and communications with the FDA.

Other costs: Other costs for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008 include general and administrative costs and distribution charges. The Company is responsible for 50% of these costs under the Development and License Agreement.

Costs exclusive to the Company:Costs exclusive to the Company includes license fees, based on net sales of FUZEON, for certain technology paid to a third party.

Research and Development Expenses

The table

On January 1, 2009, we adopted EITF 07-1 Accounting for Collaborative
Arrangements. As a result, we reclassified $511,000 from research and development expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to collaboration income (see discussion above Collaboration Income).

Total general and administrative expenses: Total general and administrative expenses decreased for
the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, primarily for the reasons discussed under Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008  General and Administrative
Expenses.

Interest income decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2009 primarily due to the lower
cash balances as a result of the special dividends paid in 2008.

There was a realized gain on investments for the six months ended
June 30, 2009 as a result of our redemptions of our investment in Bank of America Corporations Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio (the Fund), which is discussed in more detail above. At June 30, 2009, the Funds NAV
was $0.8717 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded an increase of $133,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income and a realized gain of $59,000 related to this investment. At June 30, 2008, the NAV was $0.9705
which had decreased from $0.9874 at December 31, 2007. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded a loss in the amount of $688,000.

##### Table of Contents

Operating Activities. Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through private
placements and public offerings of common stock, equipment lease financing and payments under our Development and License Agreement with Roche.

For the six months ended June 30, 2009, cash provided by operating activities decreased primarily as a result of the following:



| |  |  | decreased payments from Roche as a result of decreased FUZEON sales offset, in part, by lower selling and marketing expenses;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | decreased operating expenses offset, in part, by increased income tax expense and a $1.8 million payment for the release of future lease obligations for our prior
office and research facility.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During the remainder of 2009, cash provided by operating activities will depend on several
factors, primarily the sales, cost of sales and commercialization expenses and post-marketing commitments related to the sale of FUZEON (profitability of the collaboration with Roche), and expenses related to the patent infringement suit brought by
Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc.

Investing Activities. The amount provided by investing activities for the six months ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008 primarily relates to the net maturities/purchases of investment securities available-for-sale. The purchase and maturity of investment securities available-for-sale was due to the normal maturities of investments.

During the remainder of 2009, cash provided by investing activities will depend primarily on the net purchases/maturities of investments.
We do not expect to purchase any property and equipment in 2009. We expect patent costs in 2009 to be less than 2008.

Financing
Activities. The amount used by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was related to the special dividend paid on June 6, 2008.

On May 8, 2008, the Companys Board of Directors declared a one-time special cash dividend of $1.50 per share of common stock to stockholders of record on May 22, 2008. The aggregate dividend payment
totaled approximately $33.3 million and was paid on June 6, 2008.

Total Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investment Securities
Available-for-Sale. As of June 30, 2009, we had $34.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and investment securities available-for-sale, compared to $31.6 million as of December 31, 2008.

Future Capital Requirements.We have expended, and expect to continue to expend in the future, substantial funds in the following areas:



| |  |  | expenditures for marketing activities related to FUZEON; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | legal costs to defend the patent infringement suit brought by Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Based on expected sales levels of FUZEON, expenses related to the sale of FUZEON, the costs involved in preparing, filing, processing, maintaining,
protecting and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights, and litigation expenses, we expect that our existing capital resources, together with the interest earned thereon, will be adequate to fund our operating expenses for the
foreseeable future.

Contractual Obligations.The following table summarizes our material contractual commitments at June 30,
2009 for the remainder of 2009 and subsequent years (in thousands):

|* | Our cash contribution to the selling and marketing expenses for FUZEON in 2004 was limited to approximately $11.2 million, even though Roche spent significantly
more on these expenses. If certain cumulative levels of sales for FUZEON in the United States and Canada are achieved, our share of these additional expenses incurred by Roche during 2004 will be payable to Roche beginning at a future date over
several years from that future date. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company revised the estimated date that payments will begin from 2017 to 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2004, we reached the $11.2 million limitation for the
year. We recorded a liability of approximately $15.6 million as part of collaboration loss during the year ended December 31, 2004. This represented the net present value of our estimated share of the additional expenses, discounted at a
risk-free interest rate from the expected payment date based on achievement of the sales milestones in the

| | agreement. We are increasing the liability over time to the expected payment amount. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we increased this
liability by $128,000. The total liability of $18.4 million at June 30, 2009, is reflected on our balance sheet under the caption Accrued marketing costs. The amount reflected in the above table represents the undiscounted value of
the obligation.
| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company also has contractual obligations to the New York Blood Center pursuant to a license agreement
that requires the Company to make payments based on a contracted term.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements other than an operating lease. On May 18, 2009, Trimeris entered into an agreement releasing the
Company from payment of rent obligations for its prior office and laboratory space. The total consideration paid by the Company for the release of these future lease obligations was $1.8 million.

Accounting and Other Matters

In November 2007, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force approved Issue No. 07-1 Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements The objective of this Issue is to define collaborative arrangements and to
establish reporting requirements for transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement and between participants in the arrangement and third parties. This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We
adopted this Issue as of January 1, 2009 and as a result, reclassified $221,000 and $511,000 from research and development expense into collaboration income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. During the three and six months
ended June 30, 2009, $240,000 and $532,000 was recorded in collaboration income.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 141(R), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141 (R)). SFAS No. 141 (R) replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141), and establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, recognizes and measures the
goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase, and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS
No. 141 (R) is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. The
Company will apply the provisions of SFAS No. 141(R) to the extent that it enters into business combinations in the future.

In
February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP No. 157-2), which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and
liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company elected the deferral option
permitted by FSP No. 157-2 for its non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value which principally relates to the measurement of impairment of patent costs. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 with
respect to impairment measurements as of January 1, 2009 which did not impact the financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB decided to issue three related Staff Positions to clarify the guidance in SFAS No. 157 for fair-value measurements in inactive markets, modify the recognition and measurement of
other-than-temporary impairments of debt securities, and require companies to disclose the fair values of financial instruments in interim periods. These Staff Positions will be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15,
2009. The Company determined that these Staff Positions have no significant impact on our financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (SFAS No. 165). SFAS No. 165 establishes authoritative accounting and disclosure guidance for recognized and non-recognized subsequent events that occur after the balance
sheet date but before financial statements are issued. SFAS No. 165 also requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. SFAS No. 165 was effective for our Company
beginning with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, and will be applied prospectively. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 had no impact on our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) as the single source of
authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP to be launched on July 1, 2009. The Codification does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature
related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification will be considered nonauthoritative. The Codification is effective for
interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Codification is effective for the Company during our interim period ending September 30, 2009 and will not

have an impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial reporting process of providing
Codification references in our public filings.

Net Operating Loss Carryforwards

As of December 31, 2008, we had a net operating loss carryforward for federal tax purposes of approximately $302.4 million. During the fourth quarter
of 2008, we determined that an ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, occurred during 2008. The effect of this ownership change was the imposition of a $457,000 annual limitation on the use of net
operating loss carry forwards, credit carryovers, and built-in loss items attributable to periods before the change. We have recognized a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax assets in excess of an amount representing multiple years of
Section 382 limitation.

Critical Accounting Policies

Reference is made to Critical Accounting Policies included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2009. As of the date of the
filing of this Quarterly Report, the Company has not identified any significant changes to the critical accounting policies discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and any attachments may contain forward-looking information about the Companys financial results and business prospects that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These statements can be
identified by the fact that they use words such as expect, project, intend, plan, believe and other words and terms of similar meaning. Among the factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially are the following: there is uncertainty regarding the success of research and development activities, regulatory authorizations and product commercializations; we are dependent on third parties for the sale, marketing and
distribution of FUZEON; the market for HIV therapeutics is very competitive with regular new product entries that could affect the sale of our products; the results of our previous clinical trials are not necessarily indicative of any future
clinical trials the Company may undertake; and our drug candidates are based upon novel technology, are difficult and expensive to manufacture and may cause unexpected side effects. For a detailed description of these factors, see the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2009 and its subsequent periodic reports filed with the SEC.

Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which are current only as of the date of this report. We disclaim any current intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements
or any of the factors that may affect actual results. See Risk Factors, in Part II -Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 for further
discussion regarding some of the reasons that actual results may be materially different from those that we anticipate.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Our exposure to market risk is primarily in our investment portfolio. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Substantially all of our contracts are denominated in U.S.
dollars; therefore, we have no material foreign currency risk. We have an investment policy that sets minimum credit quality standards for our investments. The policy also limits the amount of money we can invest in any one issue, issuer or type of
instrument.

Fair value is based on actively quoted market prices and other observable inputs. Our investments are generally most
vulnerable to changes in short-term interest rates in the United States. We believe that the risk of material loss of principal due to changes in interest rates is minimal.

Investment securities, which consist of corporate bonds, Euro-dollar bonds, and medium and short-term notes, are classified as available-for-sale, and
are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices and other observable inputs. The cost of securities sold is determined using the specific identification method when computing realized gains and losses. Unrealized gains and losses are
included as a component of stockholders equity until realized.

In accordance with its investment policy, the Company limits the
amount of credit exposure with any one issuer and the investments are generally not collateralized.

Our exposure to credit risk relates
primarily to a component of investment securities involving an investment of approximately $2.2 million and $8.0 million at June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, in Bank of America Corporations Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio (the
Fund). In December 2007, Columbia Management Group, LLC, the Funds manager, determined that the assets of the Fund had declined in fair value and the Fund would no longer seek to maintain a net asset value (NAV) of
one dollar per share. As a



26

##### Table of Contents

result, the Funds NAV began to fluctuate based on changes in the market values of the assets owned by the Fund. The Fund ceased accepting orders for
new shares and began an orderly liquidation of Fund assets for distribution to its shareholders. At June 30, 2009, the Funds NAV was $0.8717 per share. For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we recorded an increase of $101,000 in
accumulated other comprehensive income and a realized gain of $22,000 related to this investment. If the current credit environment continues to deteriorate, our investment in the Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio could suffer losses, which would
adversely impact our financial results.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------

Our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, with the participation of the Companys management, as of June 30, 2009. The term disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the
companys management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of
our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance
level.

No change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the
Exchange Act), occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

On
November 20, 2007, the Company was informed that Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc. (Novartis) had filed suit against Hoffman-La Roche Inc., Roche Laboratories Inc., Roche Colorado Corp., and F. Hoffman- La Roche LTD.
(collectively the Roche Entities) and Trimeris alleging infringement of Novartis U.S. Patent No. 7,285,271 B1, entitled Antigenic Composition Comprising an HIV gag or env Polypeptide (the 271
Patent) related to the manufacture, sale and offer for sale of FUZEON. The lawsuit was filed in the Eastern District of Texas (Marshal Division).

The 271 Patent that is the subject of the infringement suit was granted to Novartis on October 23, 2007. On March 7, 2008, the Company received formal service of the complaint in this case and on
May 29, 2008, Roche and Trimeris filed an answer and counterclaim requesting relief on several grounds including non-infringement, patent invalidity, unenforceability and double-patenting. Also on May 29, 2008, Roche and Trimeris filed a
motion to transfer venue to the Eastern District of North Carolina or, in the alternative, dismiss Trimeris pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. On July 30, 2008, Novartis filed an answer to the Roche-Trimeris counterclaims. On
August 1, 2008, Roche and Trimeris filed a reply in support of Trimeris motion to transfer. On September 3, 2008, the Court dismissed the Roche-Trimeris motion for transfer of venue without prejudice. On October 10, 2008, Roche
and Trimeris filed a renewed motion to transfer. On February 3, 2009, the Court denied the renewed Roche and Trimeris requests for transfer. On March 3, 2009, Trimeris and the Roche filed invalidity contentions with the court. On
May 18, 2009, Roche and Trimeris filed motions for summary judgment. On June 12, 2009, Roche and Trimeris filed a motion for reconsideration of the order denying transfer. On August 3, 2009, the Court issued an order denying the Roche
and Trimeris motion for reconsideration of the order denying transfer. No trial date has been scheduled and the outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. In connection with its suit, Novartis is seeking unspecified money damages,
attorneys fees and injunctive relief which, if successful, would prevent Roche and Trimeris from manufacturing and selling FUZEON.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

Other than as discussed
below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors since the filing of our most recent 10-K. Our business activities involve various elements of risk. We consider the following issues to be some of the critical risks that should be
considered in evaluating our Company and our business:



| |  |  | We face intense competition in our efforts to increase sales of FUZEON as a commercially successful drug. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business
will suffer.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If FUZEON does not maintain or increase its market acceptance, our business will be materially harmed.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We do not control the manufacturing and production schedule at Roches Boulder facility where FUZEON is manufactured and we cannot ensure that significant
costs associated with scheduling decisions will not be incurred.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have been named as defendants in a lawsuit in which Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc. has alleged infringement of a patent in connection with the
manufacture and sale of FUZEON. If we cannot resolve this lawsuit on favorable terms and at a reasonable expense, our business may be materially harmed.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In order to remain profitable we will need to maintain arrangements with third parties for the sale, marketing and distribution of FUZEON or expend significant
resources to develop these capabilities.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If sufficient amounts of FUZEON, cannot be manufactured on a cost-effective basis, our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and
adversely affected.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | HIV is likely to develop resistance to FUZEON and our future drug candidate, which could adversely affect demand for FUZEON or our drug candidate TRI-1144 and harm
our competitive position.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our business is based on a novel technology called fusion inhibition, and unexpected side effects or other characteristics of this technology may delay or otherwise
adversely affect the development, regulatory approval and/or commercialization of our drug candidate TRI-1144.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



28



---

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | In order to move forward with the development and commercialization of TRI-1144 we would need to partner with a company that has the requisite expertise and
capabilities related to the development, sale, marketing and distribution of drugs.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If we cannot maintain commercial manufacturing arrangements with third parties on acceptable terms, or if these third parties do not perform as agreed, the
commercial development of FUZEON or our drug candidate TRI-1144 could be delayed or otherwise materially and adversely affected.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If Roche does not maintain good manufacturing practices, it could negatively impact our ability to maintain necessary regulatory approvals and profitably
commercialize FUZEON.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We depend on patents and proprietary rights, which may offer only limited exclusive protection and do not protect against infringement. If we are unable to protect
our patents and proprietary rights, our assets and business could be materially harmed.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The intellectual property of our competitors or other third parties may prevent us from developing or commercializing our drug candidate TRI-1144.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Uncertainties relating to third-party reimbursement and health care reform measures could limit the amount we will be able to charge for our drugs and adversely
affect our results of operations.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If the testing or use of FUZEON or our drug candidate TRI-1144 harms people, we could face costly and damaging product liability claims far in excess of our
liability and indemnification coverage.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our quarterly operating results are subject to fluctuations. If our operating results for a particular period deviate from the levels expected by securities
analysts and investors, it could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If we are unable to meet or maintain the standards for maintaining internal control over financial reporting as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our
stock price could be materially harmed.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We rely on our collaborative partner Roche to timely deliver important financial information relating to FUZEON sales and expenses. In the event that this
information is inaccurate, incomplete or not timely we will not be able to meet our financial reporting obligations as required by the SEC.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our charter requires us to indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law, which obligates us to make substantial payments and to incur
significant insurance-related expenses.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Any additional financing we obtain may result in dilution to our stockholders, restrictions on our operating flexibility or the transfer of particular rights to
technologies or drug candidates.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Company received a letter dated December 18, 2008 from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department indicating that the Company is not in compliance with
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350 with respect to audit committee composition requirements as a result of a director resignation. Consistent with Marketplace Rule 4350(d)(4), Nasdaq has provided the Company with a cure period, which runs until the
earlier of December 15, 2009 or the Companys next annual meeting of stockholders, to regain compliance. If the Company is not able to comply with this requirement by the end of the cure period, NASDAQ may delist our common stock. If our
common stock is delisted by Nasdaq, the trading market for our common stock would likely be adversely affected.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The risk
factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 (See Item 1A-Risk Factors in the Form 10-K filed by Trimeris on March 13, 2009) have materially changed as follows:

Changes in the method of calculation of FUZEON cost of goods sold under our collaboration agreement with Roche could reduce our revenue and adversely
affect our results of operations.

Recently, we have entered into discussions with Roche regarding Roches proposed method of
calculating cost of goods sold, or COGS, for purposes of our collaboration agreement. Roche has proposed a method of calculating COGS that has not been agreed to by the Company at this time. It is uncertain whether FUZEON COGS will increase,
decrease or remain the same following these discussions. A higher cost of goods sold would result in reduced collaboration income and Company revenue.
