NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position of Pro-Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2010 and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the cumulative period from inception (July 10, 2000) through March 31, 2010, the statement of changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, and for the cumulative period from inception (July 10, 2000) to March 31, 2010. All adjustments made to the interim financial statements include all those of a normal and recurring nature. The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date these financial statements are available to be issued. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred net losses of approximately $50.8 million for the cumulative period from inception (July 10, 2000) through March 31, 2010. The Company’s net losses have resulted principally from costs associated with (i) research and development expenses, including clinical trial costs, (ii) general and administrative activities and (iii) the Company’s financing transactions including interest and the costs related to fair value accounting for the Company’s convertible debt instrument and warrant liabilities. As a result of planned expenditures for future research, discovery, development and commercialization activities and potential legal cost to protect its intellectual property, the Company expects to incur additional losses and use additional cash in its operations for the foreseeable future. From inception (July 10, 2000) through March 31, 2010, the Company has raised a net total of approximately $44.0 million in capital through sale and issuance of common stock, common stock purchase warrants, convertible preferred stock, redeemable convertible preferred stock and debt securities in public and private offerings. From inception (July 10, 2000) through March 31, 2010, the Company has used approximately $43.0 million of cash in its operations.

The Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 12, 2010, contained an audit opinion that expresses doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $120,000 of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents available to fund future operations. On April 30, 2010 and May 10, 2010, the Company completed closings for gross proceeds of $310,000 and $570,000, respectively, (total net cash proceeds of $833,000) of Series B-2 redeemable convertible preferred stock (“Series B-2”) for a total of 440,000 shares of Series B-2 and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Subsequent to March 31, 2010, the Company received $689,000 from holders of warrants for 1,377,508 shares of common stock who exercised their warrants. The Company believes that with the funds from the subsequent closings of the Series B-2, cash received from the exercise of warrants and the cash on hand at March 31, 2010, there is sufficient cash to fund operations into October 2010. The Company is actively seeking to raise additional capital and has significantly reduced its administrative and clinical spending. If the Company is unsuccessful in raising additional capital before the end of October 2010, the Company may be required to cease operations or seek bankruptcy protection. In light of the Company’s current financial position and the uncertainty of raising sufficient capital to achieve its business plan, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result if such circumstances arise.

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other development-stage companies, including dependence on key individuals, uncertainty of product development and generation of revenues, dependence on outside sources of capital, risks associated with clinical trials of products, dependence on third-party collaborators for research operations, need for regulatory approval of products, risks associated with protection of intellectual property, and competition with larger, better-capitalized companies. Successful completion of the Company’s development program and, ultimately, the attainment of profitable operations is dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities and achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, or at all, or successfully market its products.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Agreement with PROCAPS S.A.

On March 25, 2010, the Company granted PROCAPS S.A. (“PROCAPS”) exclusive rights to market and sell DAVANAT^® to treat cancer in Colombia, South America. PROCAPS is a large, international, privately held pharmaceutical company based in Barranquilla, Colombia. Under terms of the agreement, PROCAPS is responsible for obtaining regulatory and pricing approval in Colombia, South America. PROCAPS also will be responsible for the vial filling, packaging, marketing and distribution of DAVANAT^® in the region.

Once approved for sale by regulators, the Company will receive a transfer payment for each dose of DAVANAT^® shipped to PROCAPS, in addition to a royalty above a minimum annual sales threshold. PROCAPS will purchase an initial minimum order of DAVANAT^® from the Company to qualify their vial-filling process and to replicate the Company’s stability study. The Company retains all intellectual property rights and is the owner of the regulatory approval of DAVANAT^® in the region. PROCAPS has first negotiation rights to other countries in South and Central America and the Caribbean. Based on approval in Colombia, PROCAPS may then obtain the marketing authorization in more than 10 countries in Latin America.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This Update requires new disclosures for transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 and activity in Level 3. This Update also clarifies existing disclosures for level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques. The new disclosures are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the Level 3 disclosures, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those years. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and is not expected to have a significant impact on the reporting of the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

2. Stock-Based Compensation

Employee stock-based compensation expense totaled $253,000 and $208,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, the Company granted options during the three months ended March 31, 2010, of which $365,000 was included in accrued expenses at December 31, 2009.

The following table summarizes the stock option activity in the Company’s equity incentive plans from December 31, 2009 through March 31, 2010:


	Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding, December 31, 2009	10,260,250		$	1.20
Granted	2,180,000			0.30
Exercised	—			0.00
Options forfeited/cancelled	(57,000	)		2.70

Outstanding, March 31, 2010	12,383,250		$	1.03

As of March 31, 2010 there was $647,000 of unrecognized compensation related to 3,003,488 unvested options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted–average period of approximately 1.0 years. The weighted-average grant date fair value for options granted during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $0.26 and $0.17, respectively.

The fair value of the options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted average assumptions were used:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Cumulative Period from Inception (July 10, 2000) to March 31,
	2010		2009		2010
Risk-free interest rate	2.38	%	1.91	%	2.44	%
Expected life of the options	5 years		5 years		5 years
Expected volatility of the underlying stock	126	%	122	%	112	%

(1)

The exercise price of the warrants has been adjusted from $3.35 per share to $0.50 per share and an additional 2,548,430 shares of the Company’s common stock are issuable upon exercise of the warrants due to subsequent issuance of equity related instruments. The warrants were classified as equity at December 31, 2008 but have been reclassified as warrant liabilities as a result of the adoption of new accounting provisions on January 1, 2009 that require warrants with certain features to be accounted for as a liability.

(2)	The exercise price of the warrants has been adjusted from $3.35 per share to $0.50 per share and an additional 5,946,354 shares of the Company’s common stock are issuable upon exercise of the warrants due to subsequent issuance of equity related instruments.

(3)	The exercise price of the warrants has been adjusted from $3.35 per share to $0.50 per share and an additional 849,477 shares of the Company’s common stock are issuable upon exercise of the warrants due to subsequent issuance of equity related instruments.

Consultant Warrants

In April 2009, the Company entered into agreements with consultants that provided for the grant of warrants for the purchase of 330,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. Of the 330,000 warrants, 80,000 vested immediately and 250,000 will vest upon the achievement of certain milestones. The initial 80,000 warrants were valued at $32,000 on issuance based on the following assumptions: an expected life of 4 years, volatility of 134%, risk free interest rate of 1.76% and zero dividends and the expense recognized upon issuance. The Company will value and account for the additional 250,000 milestone warrants when it is determined that it is probable the milestones will be achieved. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, 50,000 warrants vested (valued at $17,000 on the vesting date) when a milestone was achieved and it became probable that the remaining 200,000 warrants (valued at $68,000 at March 31, 2010) would vest by the end of 2010. The Company valued the warrants as of the milestone vesting date and at March 31, 2010 using the following assumptions: expected life of 3.02 to 3.04 years, volatility of 140%, risk free interest rates of 1.60% to 1.69% and zero dividends. The Company recognized $33,000 related to these milestone warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

In May 2009, the Company entered into agreements with consultants that provided for the grant of warrants to purchase 575,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The warrants were valued at $232,000 on issuance based on the following assumptions: an expected life of 5 years, volatility of 124%, risk free interest rate of 2.16% and zero dividends. The warrants vest through April 2011 and the Company recognized expense related to these warrants of $16,000 and $0 during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The following assumptions were used to value the warrants on March 31, 2010: an expected life of 4.09 years, volatility of 139%, risk free interest rate of 2.08% and zero dividends. The agreements also provide for the issuance of additional warrants to purchase up to 150,000 shares of common stock based on the achievement of certain milestones. The Company will value and account for these potential warrants when it is determined that it is probable the milestones will be achieved. As of March 31, 2010, 385,600 of these warrants are vested.

In July 2009, the Company entered into agreements with a consultant that provided for the grant of warrants for the purchase of 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The warrants were valued at $37,000 on issuance based on the following assumptions: an expected life of 4 years, volatility of 136%, risk free interest rate of 2.08% and zero dividends. The warrants vested immediately.

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable, such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs utilize unobservable data points for the asset or liability. A majority of the Company’s financial liabilities have been classified as Level 2. These Level 2 liabilities consist of warrant liabilities and have been valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The fair values of our money markets (cash equivalents), are readily determinable and have therefore been classified as Level 1 assets.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate fair value of its warrant liabilities. Key assumptions used to apply these models are as follows:


	Warrants
	March 31, 2010			December 31, 2009
Risk free interest rate		0.41	%		1.14	%
Expected life		1.37 years			1.62 years
Expected volatility of common share price		158	%		156	%
Common share price	$	0.44		$	0.28

Below is a summary of our fair value measurements at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:


	Value at March 31, 2010		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
	(in thousands)
March 31, 2010:
Warrant liabilities	$	2,739	$	—	$	2,739	$	—
Money markets (cash and cash equivalents)		99		99		—		—
December 31, 2009:
Warrant liabilities	$	1,633	$	—	$	1,633	$	—
Money markets (cash and cash equivalents)		229		229		—		—

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

The terms of the Series B are as follows:

Dividends. Holders of the Series B will be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate of 12% per share per annum (compounding monthly) payable quarterly which may, at the Company’s option, be paid in cash or common stock. As amended, all shares of Company common stock paid as dividends on the Preferred Stock shall be valued at $0.50 per share regardless of the actual market price of the common stock on the applicable dividend payment date. If the Company does not pay any dividend on the Series B, dividends will accrue at the rate of 15% per annum (compounding monthly).

Conversion Rights. Each share of Series B is convertible into four shares of common stock at the conversion price of $0.50 per share (subject to customary anti-dilution protection adjustments) at the option of (i) the holder, at any time and (ii) the Company, at any time after February 12, 2010 (and upon 10 days notice) if the common stock is quoted at or above $1.50 for 15 consecutive trading days and an effective registration statement regarding the underlying shares of common stock is in effect (subject to certain monthly volume limits).

Redemption Rights. Upon notice of not less than 30 trading days, a holder of Series B may require the Company to redeem, in whole or in part, (i) the Series B-1 at any time on or after December 25, 2010 and (ii) the Series B-2 at any time on or after two years from the date of issuance of such shares of Series B-2. The redemption price will be equal to the sum of the stated value of the Series B, plus all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, as of the redemption date. If the Company fails for any reason to pay the redemption price in cash on the redemption date, then the holders of the Series B requesting redemption may, at their sole option, automatically convert their shares of Series B into a promissory note bearing interest at the rate of 15% per year and secured by a lien on all of the Company’s assets. So long as any shares of the Series B remain outstanding, the Company is also subject to restrictions limiting, among other things, amendments to the Company’s organizational documents; the purchase or redemption of the Company’s capital stock; mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; sales of assets; dividends and other restricted payments; investments and acquisitions; joint ventures, licensing agreements, exclusive marketing and other distribution agreements; issuances of securities; incurrence of indebtedness; incurrence of liens and other encumbrances and issuances of any common stock equivalents.

Warrants. Each Class A-1 warrant, Class A-2 warrant and Class B warrant is exercisable at $0.50 per share of common stock (subject to customary anti-dilution protection adjustments) at any time on or after the date of issuance until the fifth anniversary of the respective issue date. The Company may, upon 30 days notice and so long as an effective registration statement regarding the underlying shares of common stock is in effect, issue a termination notice with respect to (i) each Class A-1 warrant on any trading day on which the market value of the common stock for each of the 15 previous trading days exceeded $1.25 per share (subject to customary anti-dilution protection adjustments) and (ii) each Class A-2 warrant on any trading day on which the market value of the common stock for each of the 15 previous trading days exceeded $1.75 per share (subject to customary anti-dilution protection adjustments).

The fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the Series B-1 was $1,296,000 at the date of issuance based on the following assumptions: an expected life of 5 years, volatility of 118%, risk free interest rate of 1.79% and zero dividends. The Company allocated the gross proceeds based on the relative fair value of the Series B-1 and the related warrants, resulting in $1,105,000 of the proceeds being allocated to additional paid-in capital. The Company analyzed the Series B-1, post-allocation of the gross proceeds, and determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature at the date of issuance. The issuance costs of the Series B-1 were recorded as a reduction to the carrying value of the Series B-1 when issued, and are accreted to the redemption value of the Series B-1 through the earliest redemption date (December 25, 2010). Due to the redemption feature, the Company has presented the Series B-1 outside of permanent equity, in the mezzanine of the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2010.

The fair value of the warrants issued through March 31, 2010 in connection with the Series B-2 was $6,479,000 at the dates of issuance based on the following assumptions: an expected life of 5 years, volatility of 124% to 127%, risk free interest rates of 1.98% to 2.70% and zero dividends. The Company allocated the gross proceeds based on the relative fair value of the Series B-2 and the related warrants, resulting in $2,156,000 of the proceeds being allocated to additional paid-in capital. The issuance costs of the Series B-2 were recorded as a reduction to the carrying value of the Series B-2 when issued, and are accreted to the redemption value of the Series B-2 through the earliest redemption dates. Due to the redemption feature, the Company has presented the Series B-2 outside of permanent equity, in the mezzanine of the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2010.

The Company analyzed the Series B-2, post-allocation of the gross proceeds, and determined that there was a beneficial conversion feature at the dates of issuance. Because the closing price of the common stock on the closing date was greater than the effective conversion price, $788,000 of the proceeds (limited to the allocation of the proceeds) were allocated to an embedded beneficial conversion feature of the Series B-2. The amount allocated to the beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a discount to the Series B-2 is being accreted, with such accretion being charged through the earliest redemption dates.

7. Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is based on basic shares as determined above plus the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not assume the issuance of common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, all stock options, warrants and potential shares related to conversion of the Series A Preferred and the Series B Preferred were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share. Dilutive shares which could exist pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock instruments and which were not included in the calculation because their affect would have been anti-dilutive are as follows:


	March 31, 2010 (Shares)	March 31, 2009 (Shares)
Warrants to purchase shares of common stock	54,597,255	36,150,311
Options to purchase shares of common stock	12,383,250	8,138,000
Restricted shares subject to vesting	1,250,000	2,500,000
Shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of preferred stock	11,857,500	5,342,500

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Separation Agreement – Former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors

In February 2009, in connection with the resignation of David Platt, Ph.D., the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement with Dr. Platt. The Separation Agreement provides that the Company shall continue to pay Dr. Platt his current salary at a monthly rate of $21,667 for 24 months and that the Company may defer payment of a portion of such salary amounts greater than $10,000 per month (so long as Dr. Platt does not receive payments of less than the salary payments being made to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer). However, all deferred amounts will continue to accrue and will be payable on the earlier of (i) the Company receiving a minimum of $4.0 million of funding after February 12, 2009, or (ii) February 12, 2011. The Company also agreed to continue to (i) provide health and dental insurance benefits to Dr. Platt, until the first to occur of February 12, 2011 or the date Dr. Platt and his family become eligible to receive health and dental insurance benefits under the plans of a subsequent employer and (ii) make the current monthly lease payments on his automobile until February 12, 2011. The Company recognized the full amount of the obligation related to the salary, health insurance and automobile during the first quarter of 2009. The remaining liability related to this severance is reflected in accrued expenses ($395,000) on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2010.

The Separation Agreement provides for the deferral of a $1.0 million severance payment due to Dr. Platt under his employment agreement until the occurrence of any of the following milestone events: (i) the approval by the Food and Drug Administration for a new drug application (“NDA”) for any drug candidate or drug delivery candidate based on the DAVANAT^® technology (whether or not such technology is patented); (ii) consummation of a transaction with a pharmaceutical company expected to result in at least $10.0 million of equity investment or $50 million of royalty revenue to the Company; or (iii) the renewed listing of the Company’s securities on a national securities exchange. Payment upon the events (i) and (iii) may be deferred up to nine months, and if the Company has insufficient cash at the time of any of such events, it may issue Dr. Platt a secured promissory note for such amount. If the Company files a voluntary or involuntary petition for bankruptcy, whether or not a milestone event has occurred, such event shall trigger the Company’s obligation to pay the $1.0 million with the result that Dr. Platt may assert a claim for such obligation against the bankruptcy estate. Due to the uncertainties regarding the achievement of any of the milestone events as described, the Company has not accrued for the $1.0 million severance as of March 31, 2010. When it is deemed probable that one of the milestone events will be achieved, the Company will recognize the $1.0 million severance at that time.

The Separation Agreement also provides that upon (i) the consummation of a transaction with a pharmaceutical company expected to result in at least $10.0 million of equity investment or $50.0 million of royalty revenue, the Company will grant Dr. Platt fully vested cashless-exercise stock options exercisable to purchase at least 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for ten (10) years at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock determined as of the date of the grant (“Cashless Stock Options”) and (ii) approval by the FDA of the first NDA for any of the Company’s drug or drug delivery candidates based on DAVANAT^® technology (whether or not such technology is patented), the Company will grant Dr. Platt fully vested Cashless Stock Options to purchase at least 500,000 shares of common stock. Due to the uncertainties regarding the achievement of any of the milestones as described, the Company has not recognized the value of the unissued stock options as of March 31, 2010. When it is deemed probable that one of the milestones will be achieved, the Company will recognize the expense related to the issuance of the stock options at that time based on the then current fair value.

Legal Proceedings

The Company records accruals for such contingencies to the extent that the Company concludes that their occurrence is probable and the related damages are estimable. Other than claims and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business which are not material there has been no change in the matters reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In addition to historical information, the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements as defined under federal securities laws and is subject to the safe harbor created therein for forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning our anticipated operating results, research and development, clinical trials, regulatory proceedings, legal proceedings, and financial resources, and can be identified by use of words such as, for example, “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and “would,” “should,” “could” or “may.” Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which Pro-Pharmaceuticals operates, and management’s beliefs and assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks and uncertainties are related to, without limitation, our early stage of development, our dependence on outside capital, uncertainties of our technology and clinical trials, uncertainties of regulatory approval requirements for our products, competition and stock price volatility in the biotechnology industry, limited trading volume for our stock, concentration of ownership of our stock, and other risks detailed herein and from time to time in our SEC reports. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Pro-Pharmaceuticals appearing elsewhere herein.

Overview

We are a development-stage company engaged in the discovery and development of therapeutics that target Galectin receptors that we believe enhance existing cancer treatments. We believe our therapeutics could also be used in the treatment of liver, microbial and inflammatory diseases. All of our products are presently in development, including pre-clinical and clinical trials.

Since our inception on July 10, 2000, our primary focus has been the development of a new generation of anti-cancer treatments using polysaccharide polymers which are designed to increase survival and improve the quality of life for cancer patients. Our lead product candidate, DAVANAT^®, is a patented, new chemical entity that we believe, when administered in combination with chemotherapy or biologics, increases efficacy while reducing adverse side effects of the chemotherapy. We hold the patent on DAVANAT^®, which was invented by company founders David Platt, Ph.D., our former Chief Executive Officer, and Anatole Klyosov, Ph.D., our Chief Scientist.

On April 30 and May 10, 2010 we completed closings for gross proceeds of $310,000 and $570,000, respectively, (total net cash proceeds of $833,000) on our offering of Series B-2 for a total of 440,000 shares of Series B-2 and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Subsequent to March 31, 2010, we received $689,000 from holders of warrants for 1,377,508 shares of our common stock who exercised their warrants. We believe that with the funds from the subsequent closings of the Series B-2, the cash received from the exercise of warrants and the cash on hand at March 31, 2010, there is sufficient cash to fund operations into October 2010. We will require more cash to fund our operations and believe we will be able to obtain additional financing. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such new financing or, if available, that such financing will be on terms favorable to us.

Development of DAVANAT^® Technology

In 2002, the FDA granted an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application for us to administer DAVANAT^® in combination with 5-FU to treat late-stage cancer patients with solid tumors. 5-FU is FDA-approved, and one of the most widely used chemotherapies for treatment of various types of cancer, including colorectal, breast and gastrointestinal. We believe that using DAVANAT^® in combination with 5-FU enables greater absorption of the chemotherapy in cancer cells while reducing its toxic side effects.

The FDA also has granted us an IND for DAVANAT^® to be administered with Avastin^®, 5-FU and leucovorin in a combination therapy to treat early-stage colorectal cancer patients and an IND for DAVANAT^® to be administered with 5-FU to treat early stage bile duct cancer patients. In addition, the FDA also has granted us, on a case-by-case basis, the ability to treat patients with breast cancer in response to physicians’ requests for so-called “compassionate use”.

To date, DAVANAT^® has been administered to approximately 100 cancer patients. Data from a Phase II trial for end-stage colorectal cancer patients showed that DAVANAT^® in combination with 5-FU extended median survival to 6.7 months with significantly reduced side effects, as compared to 4.6 months for best standard of care as determined by the patients’ physicians. These clinical trials also showed that patients experienced fewer adverse side effects of the chemotherapy and required less hospitalization.

Our pre-clinical and clinical trial data also show that DAVANAT^® is well tolerated, safe and non-toxic.

We believe, based on the outcome of our clinical trials to date, that DAVANAT^® when co-administered with 5-FU or biological drugs is superior to the current standard of care. We also plan to file NDAs for DAVANAT^® in combination with other chemotherapies and biologics. Biologics are therapeutic products based on materials derived from living materials.

According to its published guidance, the FDA initially determines whether a New Drug Application (“NDA”) filing is complete for purposes of allowing a review, and, if allowed, then determines whether to approve the NDA, a process that takes six or ten months. Upon approval, an applicant may commence commercial marketing and distribution of the approved products. We have retained Camargo Pharmaceutical Services, LLC for regulatory support of our submission with the FDA. Camargo’s expertise in regulatory affairs and submissions includes the preparation and submission of NDAs.

In May 2008, we submitted a Drug Master File (“DMF”) for DAVANAT^® to the FDA. This is an important step toward the filing of our DAVANAT^® NDA because a DMF contains confidential detailed information in support of the NDA about facilities, processes or articles used in the chemistry, manufacturing, controls, processing, packaging, and storing or stability of drugs. We believe the DMF represents a significant milestone in our eventual commercialization of DAVANAT^® because it demonstrates our ability to produce commercial quantities of pharmaceutical-grade DAVANAT^® under current Good Manufacturing Process (“cGMP”) standards. A DMF can be cross-referenced by potential partners to use in combination with other therapies to expedite clinical studies and submission of NDAs.

In September 2008, we submitted a clinical and pre-clinical package to the FDA in support of our DAVANAT^® NDA. The FDA reported to us in its minutes for the December 2008 meeting that we will be required to conduct a Phase III trial to demonstrate superiority to the best standard of care for late stage colorectal cancer patients. As part of the Phase III trial, we plan to open the study to conduct a pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis of approximately 60 patients, which may allow us to file an NDA for DAVANAT^® as an adjuvant when administered with 5-FU. The Company expects to enroll approximately 300 patients in the Phase III trial. Adjuvants are pharmacological or immunological agents that modify the effect of other agents, such as drugs or vaccines.

Agreement with PROCAPS S.A.

On March 25, 2010, we granted PROCAPS S.A. (“PROCAPS”) exclusive rights to market and sell DAVANAT^® to treat cancer in Colombia, South America. PROCAPS is a large, international, privately held pharmaceutical company based in Barranquilla, Colombia. Under terms of the agreement, PROCAPS is responsible for obtaining regulatory and pricing approval in Colombia, South America. PROCAPS also will be responsible for the vial filling, packaging, marketing and distribution of DAVANAT^® in the region.

Once approved for sale by regulators, we will receive a transfer payment for each dose of DAVANAT^® shipped to PROCAPS, in addition to a royalty above a minimum annual sales threshold. PROCAPS will purchase an initial minimum order of DAVANAT^® from Pro-Pharmaceuticals to qualify their vial-filling process and to replicate Pro-Pharmaceuticals’ stability study. We retain all intellectual property rights and we are the owner of the regulatory approval of DAVANAT^® in the region. PROCAPS has first negotiation rights to other countries in South and Central America and the Caribbean. Based on approval in Colombia, PROCAPS may then obtain the marketing authorization in more than 10 countries in Latin America.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

Research and Development Expense. During the three-months ended March 31, 2010, research and development expenses decreased $24,000, or 16%, to $129,000, as compared to $153,000 incurred during the same period in 2009. We generally categorize research and development expenses as either direct external expenses, comprised of amounts paid to third party vendors for services, or all other research and development expenses, comprised of employee payroll, stock-based compensation and general overhead allocable to research and development. We subdivide external expenses between clinical programs and pre-clinical activities. We consider a clinical program to have begun upon acceptance by the FDA, or similar agency outside of the United States, to commence a clinical trial in humans, at which time we begin tracking expenditures by the product candidate. We have one product candidate – DAVANAT^® – in clinical trials at this time. Clinical program expenses comprise payments to vendors related to preparation for, and conduct of, all phases of the clinical trial, including costs for drug manufacture, patient dosing and monitoring, data collection and management, oversight of the trials and reports of results. Pre-clinical expenses comprise all research and development amounts incurred before human trials begin, including payments to vendors for services related to product experiments and discovery, toxicology, pharmacology, metabolism and efficacy studies, as well as manufacturing process development for a drug candidate.

Our research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009, were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010		2009
	(in thousands)
Direct external expenses:
Clinical programs	$	8	$	5
Pre-clinical activities		11		35
All other research and development expenses		110		113

	$	129	$	153

Clinical program and pre-clinical expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010, decreased compared to the same period in 2009, due primarily to overall lower activity, specifically, decreased pre-clinical activities. We plan to initiate a Phase III trial as soon as we are able to raise sufficient additional funds which will serve to increase our research and development expense.

Both the time required and costs we may incur in order to commercialize a drug candidate that would result in material net cash inflow are subject to numerous variables, and therefore we are unable at this stage of our development to forecast useful estimates. Variables that make estimates difficult include the number of clinical trials we may undertake, the number of patients needed to participate in the clinical trial, patient recruitment uncertainties, trial results as to the safety and efficacy of our product, and uncertainties as to the regulatory agency response to our trial data prior to receipt of marketing approval. Moreover, the FDA or other regulatory agencies may suspend clinical trials if we or an agency believes patients in the trial are subject to unacceptable risks, or find deficiencies in the conduct of the clinical trial. Delays or rejections may also occur if governmental regulation or policy changes during our clinical trials or in the course of review of our clinical data. Due to these uncertainties, accurate and meaningful estimates of the ultimate cost to bring a product to market, the timing of costs and completion of our program and the period during which material net cash inflows will commence are unavailable at this time.

General and Administrative Expense. During the three-months ended March 31, 2010, general and administrative expenses decreased $678,000, or 43%, to $903,000, as compared to $1,581,000 incurred during the same period in 2009. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries including stock based compensation, legal and accounting fees, insurance, investor relations, business development and other office related expenses. The primary reason for the decrease for the three-months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 is due to decreased payroll ($545,000) as the result of the recognition of severance obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2009 related to the departure of our former chief executive officer and decreased legal and accounting costs ($398,000) primarily due to trade secrets litigation in 2009, offset by increased business development expenses ($159,000) as we increased our marketing efforts in South America.

Other Income and Expense. Other income and expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was a loss of $1,106,000 and $862,000, respectively related primarily to the change in fair value of warrant liabilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As described above in the Overview and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are in the development stage and have not generated any revenues. Since our inception on July 10, 2000, we have financed our operations from proceeds of public and private offerings of debt and equity. As of March 31, 2010, we raised a net total of $44.0 million from these offerings. At March 31, 2010, we had $120,000 of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents available to fund future operations.

Subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2010, on April 30 and May 10, 2010, we completed closings for gross proceeds of $310,000 and $570,000, respectively, (total net cash proceeds of $833,000) on our offering of Series B-2 for a total of 440,000 shares of Series B-2 and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Subsequent to March 31, 2010, we received $689,000 from holders of warrants for 1,377,508 shares of our common stock who exercised their warrants. We believe that with the funds from the subsequent closings of the Series B-2, the cash received from the exercise of warrants and the cash on hand at March 31, 2010, there is sufficient cash to fund operations into October 2010. We will require more cash to fund our operations and believe we will be able to obtain additional financing. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such new financing or, if available, that such financing will be on terms favorable to us. We are actively seeking to raise additional capital and have significantly reduced our administrative and clinical spending. If we are unsuccessful in raising additional capital before the end of October 2010, we may be required to cease operations or seek bankruptcy protection. Our Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 12, 2010, contained an audit opinion that expresses doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. In light of our current financial position and the uncertainty of raising sufficient capital to achieve our business plan, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Net cash used in operations decreased by $44,000 to $761,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $805,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Cash operating expenses decreased principally due to decreased research and development activities and cost containment measures during the period which required overall lower cash expenditures.

No cash was provided by or used in investing activities during the three-months ended March 31, 2010, unchanged from the same period in 2009.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $630,000 during the three-months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $1,348,000 during the three-months ended March 31, 2009, due primarily to the transactions described below.

On January 29, 2010, we issued and sold, pursuant to the 10X Agreement: (i) 162,500 shares of Series B-2 convertible into 650,000 shares of common stock; (ii) Class A-1 warrants exercisable to purchase 325,000 shares of common stock; (iii) Class A-2 warrants exercisable to purchase 325,000 shares of common stock; and (iv) Class B warrants exercisable to purchase 1,300,000 shares of common stock. Net proceeds from the closing were $308,000.

On March 8, 2010, we issued and sold, pursuant to the 10X Agreement: (i) 167,500 shares of Series B-2 convertible into 670,000 shares of common stock; (ii) Class A-1 warrants exercisable to purchase 335,000 shares of common stock; (iii) Class A-2 warrants exercisable to purchase 335,000 shares of common stock; and (iv) Class B warrants exercisable to purchase 1,340,000 shares of common stock. Net proceeds from the closing were $322,000.

On February 12, 2009, the initial closing date under the purchase agreement with 10X Fund LP, we issued and sold: (i) 900,000 shares of Series B-1 convertible preferred stock (“Series B-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock” or “Series B-1”) convertible into 3,600,000 shares of common stock; (ii) Class A-1 warrants exercisable to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock; (iii) Class A-2 warrants exercisable to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock; and (iv) Class B warrants exercisable to purchase 7,200,000 shares of common stock. Net cash proceeds from the closing of this offering was $1,548,000. Concurrent with the closing of the Series B-1 transaction, we repaid an investor $200,000 of advances received in 2008.

Payments Due Under Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes the payments due under our contractual obligations at March 31, 2010, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on liquidity and cash flow in future periods:


	Payments due by period (in thousands)
Contractual Obligations	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years
Operating leases	$	368	$	269	$	99	$	—	$	—
Separation agreement		395		395		—		—		—

Total payments due under contractual obligations	$	763	$	664	$	99	$	—	$	—

Operating leases. On May 1, 2006, we entered into an operating lease for office space. The lease commenced on August 11, 2006, and extends for five years and terminates on September 30, 2011. The lease provides for annual base rental payments of $235,000 in the first year, increasing in each subsequent lease year to $244,000, $253,000, $263,000 and $273,000, respectively. In addition to base rental payments included in the contractual obligations table above, we are responsible for our pro-rata share of increases in the operating expenses for the building after calendar year 2006 and taxes for the building after fiscal year 2007. We have the option to extend the term of the lease for an additional five year period at the prevailing market rate at the time of exercise. In connection with this lease, a commercial bank has issued a letter of credit collateralized by cash we have on deposit with the bank of $59,000. Additionally, we have a non-cancellable lease for a car, for our former chief executive officer, which expires in January 2011 and which is included in the severance agreement line of the contractual obligations table.

Separation agreement. In February 2009, we entered into a Separation Agreement in connection with the resignation of David Platt, Ph.D., our former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Separation Agreement provides that we shall continue to pay Dr. Platt his current salary at a monthly rate of $21,667 for 24 months and that we may defer payment of a portion of such salary amounts greater than $10,000 per month (so long as Dr. Platt does not receive payments of less than the salary payments being made to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer). However, all deferred amounts will continue to accrue and will be payable on the earlier of (i) the Company receiving a minimum of $4.0 million of funding after February 12, 2009, or (ii) February 12, 2011. We also agreed to continue to (i) provide health and dental insurance benefits to Dr. Platt, until the first to occur of February 12, 2011 or the date Dr. Platt and his family become eligible to receive health and dental insurance benefits under the plans of a subsequent employer and (ii) make the current monthly lease payments on his automobile until February 12, 2011. We recognized the full amount of the salary, health insurance and automobile during the first quarter of 2009. The remaining liability related to this severance is reflected in accrued expenses ($395,000) at March 31, 2010.

The Separation Agreement provides for the deferral of a $1.0 million severance payment due to Dr. Platt under his employment agreement until the occurrence of any of the following milestone events: (i) the approval by the Food and Drug Administration for a new drug application (“NDA”) for any drug candidate or drug delivery candidate based on the DAVANAT^® technology (whether or not such technology is patented); (ii) consummation of a transaction with a pharmaceutical company expected to result in at least $10.0 million of equity investment or $50 million of royalty revenue to the Company; or (iii) the renewed listing of our securities on a national securities exchange. Payment upon the events (i) and (iii) may be deferred up to nine months, and if we have insufficient cash at the time of any of such events, we may issue Dr. Platt a secured promissory note for such amount. If we file a voluntary or involuntary petition for bankruptcy, whether or not a milestone event has occurred, such event shall trigger our obligation to pay the $1.0 million with the result that Dr. Platt may assert a claim for such obligation against the bankruptcy estate. Due to the uncertainties regarding the achievement of any of the milestones as described, we have not accrued for the $1.0 million severance as of March 31, 2010. When it is deemed probable that one of the milestone events will be achieved, we will then recognize the $1.0 million severance at that time.

The Separation Agreement also provides that upon (i) the consummation of a transaction with a pharmaceutical company expected to result in at least $10.0 million of equity investment or $50.0 million of royalty revenue, we will grant Dr. Platt fully vested cashless-exercise stock options exercisable to purchase at least 300,000 shares of our common stock for ten (10) years at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock determined as of the date of the grant and (ii) approval by the FDA of the first NDA for any of our drug or drug delivery candidates based on DAVANAT^® technology (whether or not such technology is patented), we will grant Dr. Platt fully vested cashless stock option with identical terms to purchase at least 500,000 shares of common stock. Due to the uncertainties regarding the achievement of any of the milestones as described, we have not recognized the value of the unissued stock options as of March 31, 2010. When it is deemed probable that one of the milestone events will be achieved, we will then recognize the expense related to the issuance of the stock options at that time based on the then current fair value.

Other. We have engaged outside vendors for certain services associated with our clinical trials. These services are generally available from several providers and, accordingly, our arrangements are typically cancellable on 30 days notice.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not created, and are not party to, any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating parts of our business that are not consolidated into our financial statements. We do not have any arrangements or relationships with entities that are not consolidated into our financial statements that are reasonably likely to materially affect our liquidity or the availability of capital resources.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to intangible assets, accrued expenses, stock-based compensation, convertible debt instrument and warrant liabilities, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observance of trends in the industry, information available from other outside sources and on various other factors that we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical accounting policies are those policies that affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We believe our critical accounting policies include our policies regarding stock-based compensation, accrued expenses, income taxes and convertible debt instrument and warrant liabilities. For a more detailed discussion of our critical accounting policies, please refer to our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This Update requires new disclosures for transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 and activity in Level 3. This Update also clarifies existing disclosures for level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques. The new disclosures are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the Level 3 disclosures, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those years. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements and is not expected to have a significant impact on the reporting of our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, operating results or cash flows due to changes in the U.S. interest rates. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve cash until it is required to fund operations. To minimize risk, we maintain our portfolio of cash and cash equivalents in operating bank accounts and money market funds. Since our investments are short-term in duration, we believe that we are not subject to any material market risk exposure. As of March 31, 2010, we had $2,739,000 of outstanding warrant liabilities. We account for the warrant liabilities on a fair value basis, and changes in share price and market interest rates will affect our earnings but will not affect our cash flows.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the SEC rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and concluded that, as of March 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, no change in our internal control over financial reporting has materially affected, or is likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

Other than claims and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business which are not material there has been no change in the matters reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

The risks we face, as set forth Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, have not changed materially during the three months ended March 31, 2010, except as follows:

Performance milestones may not occur as contemplated by the agreement with PROCAPS S.A.

As our arrangement with PROCAPS is a collaboration, and because collaborations take place over time, milestone and performance risks are inherent and so performance milestones may not occur as contemplated by our agreement.

Item 2.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Between April 29, 2010 and the date of this report we issued and sold an aggregate of 1,377,508 shares of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants we sold in an exempt transaction in February 2006. The shares of common stock were issued in a transaction exempt from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
