Seymour resigned

Subsequent event:

Effective January 27, 2018 the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Eugene Seymour, resigned as the Chief Executive Officer and as a Director of the Company to allow a successor with pharmaceutical experience to serve in this capacity. Subject to the entry into a Severance Agreement, Dr. Seymour will assume the role of Chief Executive Officer Emeritus. The Board of Directors commenced a search for a permanent replacement for Dr. Seymour, which is ongoing. Pending the appointment of a permanent Chief Executive Officer, the Board of Directors appointed Dr. Anil Diwan, the Company’s President, as interim Chief Executive Officer. As of the date of this report, the Company and Dr. Seymour have not yet entered into a Severance Agreement.

The Company is now actively looking for a CEO with pharmaceutical industry novel chemical entity drug development experience to lead us to our next stage, namely clinical development and, assuming success in the clinic, further commercialization of our drugs. The Company has begun the interview process for the next CEO. However, interviewing multiple candidates, due diligence, selection and offer to a candidate, and the contractual paperwork may take some time to complete.

Meanwhile, the Company’s progress is expected to continue unaffected by the loss of the previous CEO, with Dr. Diwan, who has served as the Company’s President since 2005, assuming additional duties as interim CEO. Dr. Diwan has been performing several of the CEO duties increasingly since the 2013 uplisting from the OTC Markets to our NYSE listing. Dr. Diwan was instrumental in the design, development, and financing of our modern, state of the art nanomedicines synthesis, characterization, and production facility. Further, Dr. Diwan led several of the Company’s financing efforts with Dr. Seymour including two registered direct offerings conducted in September 2013 and January 2014 respectively, that raised approximately $30 million.
