FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. You can identify such forward-looking statements by the words “expects”, “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely,” “goal,” “assume” and similar expressions. In the normal course of business, eXegenics Inc. (“eXegenics” or the “Company”), in an effort to help keep its stockholders and the public informed about the Company’s operations may, from time to time, issue such forward-looking statements, either orally or in writing. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of such plans or strategies, or projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings or other aspects of operating results. eXegenics bases the forward-looking statements on its current expectations, estimates and projections. eXegenics cautions you that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that eXegenics cannot predict. In addition, eXegenics has based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. Therefore, the actual results of the future events described in such forward-looking statements in this Annual Report, or elsewhere, could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed in this Annual Report, including, without limitation, factors discussed in Item 1, “Business” and Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” including the factors discussed under the caption “Factors That May Affect Financial Condition and Future Results,” beginning on Page 5.

PART I

Item 1. Business

General
 
eXegenics Inc., formerly known as Cytoclonal Pharmaceutics Inc. (the “Company”), was previously involved in the research, creation, and development of drugs for the treatment and/or prevention of cancer and infectious diseases. We have historically operated as a drug discovery company, exploiting new enabling technologies to advance and shorten the new drug development cycle. We completed the termination of all research activities. All scientific staff and administrative positions were eliminated and all of our research and development activities were terminated.
 
Our Board and management are focused on redeploying the remaining residual assets of the Company. The Board has established a committee to study strategic direction and identify potential business opportunities and the Company’s objective continues to be to redeploy its assets and actively pursue new business opportunities.
 
On June 29, 2005 the Company and David E. Riggs mutually agreed that Mr. Riggs would relinquish his duties as President, Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Chairman of the Board, John A. Paganelli, assumed the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer. On July 1, 2005 David Hostelley was named Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
 
Patents, Licenses and Proprietary Rights

Prior to the termination of all of our research and development programs, our policy was to protect technology that we consider important in the development of our business by, among other things, filing patent applications for such technology. As we have terminated all drug discovery operations we have not incurred expenses in maintaining any of our prior patents. Thus any of our patents may be subject to challenge and we may lose our rights to such.

License Agreements

During 2004 and 2005 we did not receive any revenues from the Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement with NLC Pharma, Inc. The Company did not earn any revenue under this agreement during 2005, nor does it anticipate receiving any revenues from this agreement in future years.

Competition
 
As we have terminated all research and development programs we do not anticipate developing any potential products.
 
3

Insurance

  We have indemnification agreements with our former directors, in addition to the rights to indemnification afforded such individuals in our bylaws. The indemnification agreements require us to maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance covering at the then current levels of coverage for these individuals for a period from the date of such agreements until six years after the last date on which the individual ceases to be a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain, maintain or increase our insurance coverage in the future on acceptable terms or that any claims against us will not exceed the amount of such coverage.
 
Employees
 
On June 29, 2005 the Company and David E. Riggs mutually agreed that Mr. Riggs would relinquish his duties as President, Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Chairman of the Board, John A. Paganelli, assumed the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer. On July 1, 2005 David Hostelley was named Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
 
We engage independent contractors and temporary employees to perform certain administrative tasks. Although we believe that we have been successful to date in attracting skilled, highly qualified personnel, competition for personnel is intense and we cannot assure that we will be able to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. We do not expect any future employees to be governed by any collective bargaining agreement.
 
Factors That May Affect Financial Condition and Future Results

We completed the wind down of our drug discovery operations. We continue to be focused on redeploying the remaining residual assets of the Company. The following cautionary statements discuss important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the projected results contained in the forward-looking statements in this report.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At December 31, 2005 we had cash, cash equivalents and investments of approximately $8,901,000. Our future capital needs are uncertain. The Company may or may not need additional financing in the future to fund any potential transaction the Company may enter into, a determination to be made when the Company implements its new business strategy. We do not know whether additional financing will be available when needed, or that, if available, we will obtain financing on terms favorable to our stockholders.
 
Our Stock
 
The market price of our stock may be negatively affected by market volatility. The following factors, in addition to other risk factors described in this section, may have a significant impact on the market price of our securities:

- announcements we make concerning new business development activities;

- announcements we make concerning our use of cash to maintain our dormant operations;

- regulatory developments in the United States and foreign countries;

- our common stock being quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board;

- current and new litigation requiring further use of our cash; or

- economic and other external factors or other disasters or crises.

 
4

Research and Development Activities
 
As we have terminated all research and development activities we did not incur any research and development expenses during fiscal 2005 and 2004 respectively.
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors

The risks described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results or financial condition could be materially harmed. Investors should also refer to the other information set forth in this Form 10-K, including the financial statements and the notes thereto.
 
We May in the Future make Acquisitions, which Involve Numerous Risks      
 
Our objective continues to be to redeploy our assets and actively pursue new business opportunities. As such, we will be subject to numerous risks, including the following:
 
 
 
The benefits of any potential business opportunity not materializing as planned or not materializing within the time periods or to the extent anticipated;
 
 
 
The possibility that the Company will pay more than the value it derives from any potential business opportunity;
 
 
 
The assumption of certain known and unknown liabilities of any potential business opportunity;
 
 
 
Risks of entering markets in which the Company has no or limited direct prior experience; and
 
Any business opportunity we pursue will involve a high degree of business and financial risk, which can result in substantial losses for us. There is generally going to be no publicly available information about the companies which we intend to pursue, and we rely significantly on the diligence of our employees and agents to obtain information. If we are unable to identify all material information about these companies, among other factors, we may fail to receive the value we had expected. In addition, these businesses may have short operating histories, narrow product lines, small market shares and less experienced management than their competition and may be more vulnerable to customer preferences, market conditions, loss of key personnel, or economic downturns. Depending upon the ultimate structure of any such transaction, we may be subject to the risk that such a company may make a business decision that does not prove to be profitable for the Company.
 
Our search for new business opportunities also may be affected by current and future market conditions. In addition, significant changes in the capital markets could have an effect on the valuations of companies and on the potential for liquidity events involving such companies.
 
5

The Business Opportunity We Pursue Could Materially and Adversely Affect Our Results of Operations and Our Stock Price. 
 
Even if we locate a business opportunity, the closing of any such transaction will be subject to certain conditions, including us obtaining shareholder approval. We cannot provide assurance that the necessary approvals will be obtained, or that we will be able to successfully consummate such transaction.
 
If we do not successfully locate a suitable business opportunity:

 
 
the market price of our common stock may decline;
 
 
we will continue to incur costs, including legal, accounting, financial advisory and other costs relating to us being a public company and our ongoing search for a suitable business opportunity; and
 
 
we may experience a negative reaction if we do not locate a suitable business opportunity, or if the Board of Directors does recommend a proposal to our shareholders which is not approved, or if such transaction is approved by our shareholders and does not produce anticipated results.
 
 
The occurrence of any of these events individually or in combination could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and our stock price.
 
Any Business Opportunity We Pursue May Result in a Change of Control and Our Current Management May not Have Any Power to Influence Us After the Closing of any such Transaction
 
Any transaction that we engage may result in the owners and management of such company having actual or effective operating control of us. The owners and management of such company will have the right to appoint their own officers and directors, and our current management will have no ability to influence future business decisions.
 
Currently, There is No Agreement for Any Potential Transaction and No Minimum Guidelines Have Been Established

The Company has no current arrangement, agreement or understanding with respect to engaging in a transaction with any specific entity. We cannot guarantee that the Company will be successful in identifying and evaluating any suitable business opportunities or in concluding a transaction. We have not selected any particular industry or specific business within an industry as a potential target company. The Company has not established any criteria, including a specific length of operating history or a specified level of earnings, assets, and/or net worth, which it will require a company to have achieved, or without which the Company would not consider a transaction with such business entity. Accordingly, the Company may enter into a transaction with a business entity having no significant operating history, losses, limited or no potential for immediate earnings, limited assets, negative net worth or other negative characteristics. We cannot guarantee you that the Company will be able to negotiate a transaction on terms favorable to the Company.
 
Any Business Opportunity We Pursue Will Possibly Dilute the Value of the Company’s Securities.
 
Any transaction we pursue will involve the issuance of a significant number of additional shares of the Company's common stock. Depending upon the value of the business, the per share value of the Company's common stock may increase or decrease, perhaps significantly. Any transaction involving the issuance of the Company's common stock may result in shareholders of a target company obtaining a controlling interest in the Company.

6

Any Transaction We Pursue May Result in Unfavorable Taxation to the Company

Federal and state tax consequences will, in all likelihood, be major considerations in any business opportunity we may pursue. Currently, such transactions may be structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies, pursuant to various federal and state tax provisions. The Company intends to structure any transaction so as to minimize the federal and state tax consequences to the Company. However, there can be no assurance that such business opportunity will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization could result in the imposition of both federal and state taxes which may have an adverse effect on both parties to the transaction and their shareholders.
    
Certain of the Company’s Charter Provisions and Delaware Law May Prevent or Deter Potential Business Opportunities
 
The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), Bylaws (“Bylaws”) Shareholders Rights Agreement, and certain provisions of Delaware law contain certain provisions that may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing us from pursuing a potential business opportunity proposal that a stockholder might consider favorable. The anti-takeover effect of these provisions may also have an adverse effect on the public trading price of the Company’s common stock.

Section 404 and Other Recently Enacted Regulatory Changes Have Caused, and Will Continue to Cause the Company to Incur Increased Costs and Operating Expenses and May Make it More Difficult for the Company to Successfully Pursue New Business Opportunities

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and recently enacted rules of the SEC have caused the Company to incur significant increased costs as it implements and responds to new requirements. In particular, the rules governing the standards that must be met for management to assess its internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404 are new and complex, and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation. This ongoing process of reviewing, documenting and testing the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting has resulted in, and will likely continue to result in, a significant strain on the Company’s management, information systems and resources. Furthermore, achieving and maintaining compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and other new rules and regulations has required the Company to hire additional personnel and has and will continue to require it to use additional outside legal, accounting and advisory services.
 
Any new business opportunity pursued by the Company will also put a significant strain on its management, information systems and resources, which will require implementation of any changes necessary to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting.
 
Changes in, or Interpretations of, Accounting Rules and Regulations Could Result in Unfavorable Accounting Charges
 
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles are subject to interpretation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and various bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting policies. A change in these policies can have a significant effect on the Company’s reported results and may even retroactively affect previously reported transactions.
 
7

Our Common Stock Price May be Volatile, Which Could Result in Substantial Losses for Stockholders
 
The market price of shares of the Company’s common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and may be significantly affected by factors such as the following:
 
 
 
Actual or anticipated fluctuations in its operating results;
 
 
 
Changes in the economic and political conditions in the United States and abroad;
 
 
 
Terrorist attacks, war or the threat of terrorist attacks and war;
 
 
 
Developments in ongoing litigation;
 
 
 
Failure to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
   
 
 
Price and volume fluctuations in the stock market;

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

       Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties

Our corporate offices are located at 1250 Pittsford-Victor Road, Building 200, Suite 280, Pittsford, New York 14534. The Company leases this office space from RFG Associates, an entity in which John A. Paganelli, chairman of the Board of Directors, and Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company, is an equity owner. Monthly rent is $625 and is cancelable by either party upon thirty (30) days notice. We incurred rent expense and of approximately $10,000 in 2005 and $20,000 in 2004, respectively.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

Labidi Proceeding. On October 5, 2005, in the matter brought by Abdel Hakim Labidi (one of our former employees) against the Company, a jury ruled in favor of Dr. Labidi determining that the Company converted certain biological research materials owned by Dr. Labidi, and the Company committed theft of biological materials owned by Dr. Labidi. The jury awarded Dr. Labidi a total of $600,000. Dr. Labidi has moved the Court to award attorney fees and interest on the jury’s award. We await a decision from the Court on this motion. The Company is reviewing this matter to determine the validity of appealing the decision of the jury. The final amount due by the Company to Dr. Labidi under such judgment is likely to be between $250,000 and $750,000, however the Company has provided for a reserve of $250,000 in the financial statements.
 
Weiss Litigation. On April 12, 2005 the judge, in a ruling from the bench, dismissed the lawsuit filed by The M& B Weiss Family Limited Partnership of 1996 with prejudice.   

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
 
During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year represented by this report, the Company did not present any matters to be voted upon by its shareholders.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In this section, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and “ours” refer to eXegenics Inc.
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in this report. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this report the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and similar expressions as they relate to our management or us are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Historical operating results are not necessarily indicative of the trends in operating results for any future period.
 
Our Board is focused on redeploying the remaining residual assets of the Company. The Board and management have established a committee to study strategic direction and identify potential business opportunities. The lawsuit filed by The M&B Weiss Family Limited Partnership of 1996 was dismissed on April 12, 2005. The Company faces potential liability of at least $600,000 (exclusive of interest and legal fees, which have been requested by Dr. Labidi, but not yet determined by the Court) in connection with the judgment rendered against the Company in the lawsuit filed by Dr. Labidi. On June 29, 2005 the Company and David E. Riggs mutually agreed that Mr. Riggs would relinquish his duties as President, Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Chairman of the Board John A. Paganelli, assumed the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer. On July 1, 2005 Dave Hostelley was named Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Our objective in 2006 is to redeploy our assets and actively pursue new business opportunities. After taking into account the interest earned on our investments ($25,000 to $30,000 per month) we expect to use between $40,000 and $55,000 per month in 2006 in furtherance of these objectives. This calculation includes $250,000 in the potential liability faced by the Company in the judgment rendered against the Company in the suit filed by Dr. Labidi.
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to investments, intangible assets, income taxes, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
 
The Company considers all non-restrictive, highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Investments consist of equity securities and are classified as available for sale and reported at their fair values. The realized gains and losses from these investments are reported in current earnings. Unrealized gains and losses from these securities are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and excluded from current earnings.
 
The Company has elected to continue to account for its stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB No. 25”) and provide pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock option grants as if the fair-value based method defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” had been applied. Under the provisions of APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.
 
Revenue from research support agreements is recognized ratably over the length of the agreements. Revenue resulting from contracts or agreements with milestones is recognized when the milestone is achieved. Amounts received in advance of services to be performed, or the achievement of milestones, are recorded as deferred revenue. Payments to third parties in connection with nonrefundable license fees are being recognized over the period of performance of related research and development activities.
 
The Company periodically evaluates the collectability of the subscription receivable and adjusts an allowance sufficient to ensure that the net balance is equal to the value of the underlying collateral.
 
We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the net deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the net deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At December 31, 2005 we had cash, cash equivalents and investments of approximately $8,901,000. During 2005, we used approximately $1,000,000 to fund our operating activities. Restricted cash was pledged as collateral in support of leases of laboratory equipment. In connection with the termination of our drug discovery research programs, we repurchased equipment subject to a capital lease agreement. In August 2005, in conjunction with the return of remaining lease obligations, the lessor of this equipment released $175,000 of the held collateral. In addition, in 2005 the Company received proceeds of approximately $1,064,000 from the sale of Javelin Pharmaceuticals, Inc shares of common stock.
 
The Company faces potential liability of at least $600,000 (exclusive of interest and legal fees, which have been requested by Dr. Labidi, but not yet determined by the Court) in 2006 in connection with the judgment rendered against the Company in the lawsuit filed by Dr. Labidi. In connection with this potential liability the Company has recorded a reserve for $250,000.
 
After taking into account the interest earned on our investments ($25,000 to $30,000 per month) we expect to use between $40,000 and $55,000 per month in 2006 in furtherance of these objectives. This calculation includes $250,000 in the potential liability faced by the Company in the judgment rendered against the Company in the suit filed by Dr. Labidi. Our future capital needs are uncertain. The Company may or may not need additional financing in the future to fund operations, a determination to be made when the Company adopts its new business strategy. We do not know whether additional financing will be available when needed, or that, if available, we will obtain financing on terms favorable to our stockholders. 
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncement

We believe that the adoption of the following accounting standard will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
16

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-based Payment.” SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”, and supersedes APB 25. Among other items, SFAS 123R eliminates the use of APB 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting, and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant date fair value of those awards, in the financial statements. The effective date of SFAS 123R is January 1, 2006, for calendar year companies.
 
SFAS 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a “modified prospective” method, or a “modified retrospective” method. Under the “modified prospective” method, compensation cost recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R. Under the “modified retrospective” method, the requirements are the same as under the “modified prospective” method, but also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on proforma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS 123.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
The Company has no off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our exposure to financial market risk, including changes in interest rates, relates primarily to our marketable security investments. We generally place our marketable security investments in high credit quality instruments, primarily U.S. government obligations and corporate obligations with contractual maturities of less than one year. We do not believe that a 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would significantly impact our business. We do not have any derivative instruments. We operate only in the United States and all our transactions have been made in U.S. dollars. We do not have any material exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The options are non-qualified stock options, granted pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Option Plan. Options to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock, at an average exercise price of $0.40 per share, vest immediately on the grant date that ranges from January 1, 2005 through October 1, 2005. These options were granted to Mr. Paganelli as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company.

(2)
In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we show in these columns the potential realizable value over the term of the option (the period from the grant date to the expiration date). We calculate this assuming that the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant appreciates at the indicated annual rate, 5% and 10% compounded annually, for the entire term of the option and that the option is exercised and sold on the last day of its term for the appreciated stock price. These amounts are based on assumed rates of appreciation and do not represent an estimate of our future stock price. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will depend on the future performance of our common stock, the option holder’s continued employment with us through the option exercise period, and the date on which the option is exercised.

Aggregated Option Exercises in Last Fiscal Year and Fiscal Year-End Option Values
 
The following table shows information regarding exercises of options to purchase our common stock by each former executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The table also shows the aggregate value of options held by each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table as of December 31, 2005. The value of the unexercised in-the-money options at fiscal year end is based on a value of $0.41 per share, the closing price of our stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on December 30, 2005 (the last trading day prior to the fiscal year end), less the per share exercise price.

Amounts shown in this column do not necessarily represent actual value realized from the sale of the shares acquired upon exercise of the option because in many cases the shares are not sold on exercise but continue to be held by the executive officer exercising the option. The amounts shown represent the difference between the option exercise price and the market price on the date of exercise, which is the amount that would have been realized if the shares had been sold immediately upon exercise.

Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements

David E. Riggs entered into an employment agreement with us on March 10, 2003 to serve as our Vice President, Chief Business Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary until March 9, 2006, to be automatically renewed for additional one-year periods, unless sooner terminated. The employment agreement provides for the payment to Mr. Riggs of a base salary of $235,000 per year with an annual bonus payment of up to 30% of Mr. Riggs’s base salary, at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The employment agreement provides that in the event Mr. Riggs’s employment is terminated by us without cause or by Mr. Riggs for good reason, Mr. Riggs shall receive severance payments of equal monthly installments at the then current base rate until either (i) the expiration of 12 months following the date of termination, if such date is prior to March 10, 2004, (ii) the expiration of nine months following the date of termination, if such date is before March 10, 2005, (iii) the expiration of six months following the date of termination, if such date is before March 9, 2006, or (iv) the expiration of six months following the date of termination, if such date is during a renewal period. The employment agreement contains a one-year post-termination non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disclosure agreement. On or about March 2004 we amended Mr. Riggs employment agreement (the “Amendment”) to reflect his title of President and Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to the Amendment Mr. Riggs was granted an option to purchase 75,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. This Option granted vests in three equal installments: The first immediately upon the grant date, the second on the first anniversary of that date and the final upon the second anniversary of that date. Effective June 30, 2005 the Company and David E. Riggs mutually agreed that Mr. Riggs would relinquish his duties as President, Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, and the Company entered into a Separation Agreement with Mr. Riggs. Chairman of the Board, John A. Paganelli, assumed the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer. On July 1, 2005 David Hostelley was named Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The Company’s agreement with Mr. Hostelley calls for him to receive $2,500 per month, and is terminable by either side upon 30 days written notice.

PERFORMANCE TABLE

our Interim Chief Executive Officer and our single highly compensated executive officers who earned more than $100,000 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 referred to below as our named executive officer; and,

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders
eXegenics Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of eXegenics Inc. as of December 31, 2005, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of eXegenics Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


Board of Directors and Stockholders
eXegenics Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of eXegenics Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of eXegenics Inc. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note A — The Company

eXegenics Inc., formerly known as Cytoclonal Pharmaceutics Inc. (“eXegenics” or the “Company”), was previously involved in the research, creation, and development of drugs for the treatment and/or prevention of cancer and infectious diseases. During 2004, the Company completed the termination all research activities. All scientific staff and administrative positions were eliminated and all of the Company’s research activities were terminated. Our objective continues to be to redeploy our assets and actively pursue new business opportunities.

Note B — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash equivalents, restricted cash

The Company considers all non-restrictive, highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents, which amount to $8,901,000 and $8,734,000 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, consist principally of interest bearing cash deposits. Restricted cash, amounted to $0 at December 31, 2005, and $175,000 at December 31, 2004, consisted of certificates of deposits that are used as collateral for equipment leases.
 
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents at several financial institutions which periodically may exceed federally insured amounts. The Company has not experienced any loss in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk on cash and cash equivalents.

Marketable Securities 

The Company accounts for marketable securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS 115”). SFAS 115 establishes the accounting and reporting requirements for all debt securities and for investments in equity securities that have readily determinable fair values. All marketable securities must be classified as one of the following: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading. The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for sale and, as such, carries the investments at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in stockholders’ equity as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The cost of securities sold is determined based on the specific identification method. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other than temporary, are included in investment income.
 
In 2001, the Company entered into a planned merger agreement that was subsequently terminated as a part of a negotiated settlement, it received a convertible subordinated promissory note in the amount of $500,000. In September 2003, this note was converted to 339,736 shares of Innovative Drug Delivery System (“IDDS”) series C preferred stock and as of December 31, 2003, the Company had placed a full valuation allowance on the value of these securities. In late December 2004, the Company was informed that Intrac, Inc. acquired IDDS and all of the Company’s shares in IDDS were to be converted to 345,991 shares of Intrac, Inc. common stock. As of December 31, 2004 the fair value of the Company’s investment in these securities was equal to approximately $1,124,000 and a corresponding unrealized gain is included as a component of other comprehensive income.
 
During 2005, the Company sold all of its marketable securities, realizing a gain on sale of approximately $1,064,000. These securities consisted of equity securities (common stock) in Javelin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (formally known as Intrac, Inc.) and were classified as available for sale and reported at their fair values. Realized gains and losses from the sale of investments are reported in current earnings. Unrealized gains and losses from these securities are reported as a separate component of stockholders equity and excluded from current earnings. As of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the fair value of the Company’s investments was equal to approximately $0 and $1,124,000 with corresponding unrealized gains in 2004 included as a component of other comprehensive income.

Equipment
 
Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 5 years. Repairs and maintenance that do not increase the economic useful life of the asset are charged to expense as incurred.
 
The Company reviews its capital assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In performing the review, the Company uses the undiscounted cash flow method.
 
F-7

Revenue recognition
 
Revenue from research support agreements is recognized ratably over the length of the agreements. Revenue resulting from contracts or agreements with milestones is recognized when the milestone is achieved. Amounts received in advance of services to be performed or the achievement of milestones are recorded as deferred revenue.

Research and development

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Loss per common share
 
Basic and diluted loss per common share is based on the net loss increased by dividends on preferred stock divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. No effect has been given to outstanding options, warrants or convertible preferred stock in the diluted computation, as their effects would be anti-dilutive. The number of potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share was approximately 2,148,000, 2,325,000 and 3,739,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for stock- based compensation according to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and the related interpretations under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation." The Company adopted the required disclosure provisions under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 and continues to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation.

Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components within the financial statements. Other comprehensive income is comprised of charges to stockholders' equity, other than contributions from or distributions to stockholders, excluded from the determination of net income. The Company's other
comprehensive income is comprised of unrealized gains on available for sale marketable securities.

Income Taxes

The Company has applied the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the consequences of temporary differences between amounts reported for financial reporting and income tax purposes, including net operating loss carryforwards. SFAS No. 109 requires recognition of a future tax benefit of net operating loss carryforwards and certain other temporary differences to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely than not; otherwise, a valuation allowance is applied.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying value of cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates their fair value due to the short period to maturity of these instruments.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Statement Accounting Standards No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections-a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3” (“SFAS 154”). This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is impractical to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company believes that adoption of the provisions of SFAS 154 will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-based Payment.” SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”, and supersedes APB 25. Among other items, SFAS 123R eliminates the use of APB 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting, and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant date fair value of those awards, in the financial statements. The effective date of SFAS 123R is January 1, 2006, for calendar year companies.
 
SFAS 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a “modified prospective” method, or a “modified retrospective” method. Under the “modified prospective” method, compensation cost recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R. Under the “modified retrospective” method, the requirements are the same as under the “modified prospective” method, but also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on proforma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS 123.
 
The Company currently utilizes a standard option pricing model (i.e., Black -Scholes) to measure the fair value of stock options granted to employees. While SFAS 123R permits entities to continue to use such a model, the standard also permits the use of a “lattice” model. The Company has not yet determined which model it will use to measure the fair value of employee stock options upon the adoption of SFAS 123R.
 
SFAS 123R also requires that the benefits associated with the tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after the effective date. These future amounts cannot be estimated because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options.

Note C — License Agreements

On September 8, 2004 the Company entered into an Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement to license the Company’s QCT drug discovery technology to NLC Pharma, Inc. (a Delaware corporation based in Israel). Pursuant to the Agreement the Company will receive monies from royalties, licenses or the sale of QCT technology to third parties that are generated by NLC Pharma Inc. The Company did not earn any revenue under this agreement during 2005, nor does it anticipate receiving any revenues from this agreement in future years.

Note G — Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred stock

On January 6, 1992, the Board of Directors designated 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A convertible preferred stock. The holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to (i) convert on a one-for-one basis to common stock subject to adjustment, as defined, (ii) voting rights equivalent to voting rights of common stockholders, (iii) receive dividends equal to $.25 per share payable on or about January 15 each year in cash or newly-issued shares of Series A preferred or a combination thereof (iv) liquidation preferences of $2.50 per preferred share. The Company, at its option, has the right to redeem all or any portion of the Series A convertible preferred stock at $2.50 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends.
 
During January 2003, the Company elected to pay the required yearly dividend on its Series A convertible preferred stock by issuing additional shares of Series A convertible preferred stock. The Company issued 82,834 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock to satisfy the 10% dividend. In addition, during 2003, 20,293 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock were converted into 20,293 shares of common stock.
 
During January 2004, the Company elected to pay the required yearly dividend by issuing additional shares of Series A convertible preferred. The Company issued 89,020 shares to satisfy the 10% dividend. In addition, during 2004, 44,252 shares of Series A convertible preferred were converted into 44,252 shares of common stock
 
During January 2005, the Company elected to pay the required yearly dividend by issuing additional shares of Series A convertible preferred. The Company issued 93,502 shares to satisfy the 10% dividend. In addition, during 2005, 75,995 shares of Series A convertible preferred were converted into 75,995 shares of common stock.

Common Stock
 
During the second quarter 2004, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution providing for the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock and the granting of stock options as part of compensation paid to directors for their service to the Company. Upon joining the Board, directors are issued 25,000 shares of common stock. The chairman of the Board receives an additional 25,000 shares at the time he assumes this role. Members of the Board of Directors are granted an option to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on the first day of each calendar quarter, with an exercise price equal to the closing trading price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. In the second quarter 2004, the Chairman of the Board was issued 50,000 shares of common stock, Directors were issued 25,000 shares. In the aggregate, 150,000 shares of common stock were issued and recorded at their fair value on the date of grant. No common stock was issued to the Board of Directors in 2005.

Stockholder Rights Plan

On June 9, 2003, the then current Board of Directors adopted a shareholders rights plan. Under the plan, each holder of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on June 9, 2003 received, as a non-taxable dividend, one right for each share of common stock held. Each right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $4.50, subject to adjustment. If a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 15 percent or more of the Company’s common stock, each right will entitle its holder (other than the acquiring person or members of the acquiring group) to purchase, at the right's then current exercise price (initially $4.50), a number of the Company’s shares of common stock having a market value of twice such price (initially $9.00).
 
In addition, if the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction after a person has acquired beneficial ownership of 15 percent or more of its common stock, each right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the rights' then current exercise price (initially $4.50), a number of the acquiring company's shares of common stock having a market value of twice such price (initially $9.00). Following the acquisition by a person or group of beneficial ownership of 15 percent of the Company’s common stock and prior to an acquisition of beneficial ownership of 50 percent or more of its common stock the Board of Directors may exchange the rights (other than rights owned by such acquiring person or group, which will have become null and void and nontransferable), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock (or one-thousandth of a share of Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock) per right. The Company may redeem the rights at a price of $.001 per right at any time prior to the time a person has become the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The rights will expire on June 9, 2013, unless earlier exchanged or redeemed.

Subscriptions receivable

In May 2001, we sold 100,000 shares of common stock to our former President and Chief Executive Officer, Ronald L. Goode, Ph.D., for a purchase price of $3.25 per share, the fair market value at the time of the transaction. Dr. Goode paid the purchase price of $325,000 with $25,000 in cash and issued a $300,000 five-year promissory note to us bearing interest at a rate of 4.71% per annum, with interest payable semi-annually. The 100,000 shares sold to Dr. Goode, serve as collateral to secure the note. The note provides that in the event of a default on the note, as defined in the agreement, Dr. Goode’s obligation to the Company is limited to $65,000 and proceeds from the public sale of the collateralizing stock. Through December 31, 2004, Dr. Goode has made $86,000 in interest payments. A stock certificate for these shares was not issued to Dr. Goode until September 2003. In February 2004, Dr. Goode resigned, thereby terminating his employment agreement with the Company and in 2005 he has failed to make $14,000 in interest payments. In the second quarter 2005, the Company recorded a reserve against the subscription receivable balance so that the net balance is approximately equal to Dr. Goode’s obligation under the note.

In connection with this exchange, the Company recorded a charge of $91,000 to operations during 2002 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
 
In March 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with Petkevich & Partners, LLC whereby the Company issued warrants to purchase 40,000 shares of common stock at $0.58 per share expiring on March 5, 2008. These warrants vested during 2003; the Company determined the fair value based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model of these warrants to be approximately $5,000, which was charged to operations during 2003.
 
The Company did not incur any warrant related expenses in 2004 and 2005.

Stock options

During 1996, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company approved the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the “1996 Plan”) that provides for the granting of incentive and nonstatutory options for up to 750,000 shares of common stock to officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company. During 1998, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Plan to allow for the granting of an additional 750,000 options. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, 980,000 and 922,000, respectively, options were available for future grant under the 1996 Plan.
 
During 2000, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company approved the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the “2000 Plan”), which provides for the granting of incentive and nonstatutory options for up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock to officers, employees, directors, independent contractors, advisors and consultants of the Company. The Company subsequently amended the 2000 plan to increase the options available for future grants by 1,250,000 shares and to change the vesting period. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, 2,365,000 and 1,820,000, respectively, options are available for grant under the 2000 Plan.
 
Options granted under the Plans are exercisable for a period of up to 10 years from date of grant at an exercise price which is not less than the fair value of the common stock on date of grant, except that the exercise period of options granted to a stockholder owning more than 10% of the outstanding capital stock may not exceed five years and their exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair value of the common stock at date of grant. For the 1996 Plan, options generally vest 40% after six months of employment and thereafter 20% annually on the anniversary date of the grant. For the 2000 Plan, as a result of an amendment approved by the stockholders in 2001, the vesting period changed from 50% annually on the anniversary date of the grant, to 33 1/3% annually on the anniversary date of the grant. Under the 2000 plan, the Board of Directors has authority to modify the vesting period. Non-employee director options are immediately exercisable on the date of grant.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair market value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair market value estimates, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair market value of our stock options.

Note H — Income Taxes

At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had approximately $53,080,000 and $51,041,000 of net operating loss carry forwards and $491,000 and $521,000 of research and development credit carry forwards, respectively, for federal income tax purposes that expire in years 2006 through 2022.
 
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had a deferred tax asset of approximately $18,541,000 and $19,521,000 respectively, representing the benefits of its net operating loss and research and development credit carry forwards and certain expenses not currently deductible for tax purposes, principally related to the granting of stock options and warrants, and non-cash reorganization and merger expenses. The Company’s deferred tax asset has been fully reserved by a valuation allowance since realization of its benefit is uncertain. The difference between the statutory tax rate of 34% and the Company’s effective tax rate is principally due to the increase (decrease) in the valuation allowance of ($980,000) (2005), $644,000 (2004), and $1,902,000 (2003). The Company’s ability to utilize its carry forwards may be subject to an annual limitation in future periods pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Note I — Commitments and Other Matters

Leases

F-13

Labidi Proceeding.
 
On October 5, 2005, in the matter brought by Abdel Hakim Labidi (one of our former employees) against the Company, a jury ruled in favor of Dr. Labidi determining that the Company converted certain biological research materials owned by Dr. Labidi, and the Company committed theft of biological materials owned by Dr. Labidi. The jury awarded Dr. Labidi a total of $600,000. The Company is reviewing this matter to determine the validity of appealing the decision of the jury. The final amount due by the Company to Dr. Labidi under such judgment is likely to be between $250,000 and $750,000, however the Company has recorded a provision of $250,000 in the financial statements.
 
2110 Research Row, Ltd. Proceeding.
 
On December 31, 2003, the termination date of our lease agreement, we vacated 19,300 square feet of office and laboratory space that we occupied at 2110 Research Row, Dallas, Texas. 2110 Research Row, Ltd. (the “Landlord”) acquired this property in April 2002. The Landlord contends he is owed payments that we believe to be outside the terms of the lease agreement or waived by the previous landlord. In October 2003, we filed suit against the Landlord and 9000 Harry Hines, Inc., in a Dallas County District Court. The Company, as tenant, and the Landlord were parties to a lease agreement (“Lease Agreement”) dated October 1, 1991, as amended.  On March 19, 2004, we entered into a settlement agreement with the Landlord, whereby we made a $33,000 payment to the Landlord, dismissed the suit with prejudice and entered into a mutual release of any and all claims by all parties. On April 9, 2004, the Landlord and the Company filed an Agreed Order Of Dismissal With Prejudice in The District Court, 134th Judicial District, Dallas County Texas.

(a)
Per common share amounts for the quarters and full year have been calculated separately. Accordingly, quarterly amounts may not add to the annual amount because of differences in the weighted average common shares outstanding during each period due to the effect of the Company’s issuing shares of its common stock during the year.
