Our Company
 
Our company is engaged in drug discovery. Our goal is to identify and develop new types of drugs for protection of normal tissues from exposure to radiation and other stresses, such as toxic chemicals and for cancer treatment. Our initial target, and most promising opportunity, is to develop a drug to protect humans from the effects of exposure to radiation, whether as a result of military or terrorist acts or as a result of a nuclear accident. Recent acts of terrorism and the proliferation of nuclear weapons programs in rogue states have created a more immediate demand for further research and development, or R&D, in this area. Other potential applications of our drug candidates include reducing the side effects of cancer treatment, destroying tumor cells and generating adult stem cells.
 
Our development efforts are based on discoveries made in connection with the investigation of the cell-level process known as apoptosis. Apoptosis is a highly specific and tightly regulated form of cell death that can occur in response to external events such as exposure to radiation or toxic chemicals or to internal stresses. Apoptosis is a major determinant of tissue damage caused by a variety of medical conditions including cerebral stroke, heart attack or acute renal failure. Conversely, however, apoptosis also is an important protective mechanism that allows the body to shed itself of defective cells, which otherwise can cause cancerous growth.
 
Research has demonstrated that apoptosis is sometimes suppressed naturally. For example, most cancer cells develop resistance to apoptotic death caused by drugs or natural defenses of the human body. Our research is geared towards identifying the means by which apoptosis can be affected and manipulated depending on the need.
 
If the need is to protect healthy tissues against an external event such as exposure to nuclear radiation, we attempt to suppress apoptosis in those healthy tissues, thereby imitating the apoptotic-resistant tendencies displayed by cancer cells. A drug with this effect would also be useful in ameliorating the often severe side effects of anticancer drugs and radiation that cause collateral damage to healthy tissues during cancer treatment. Because the severe side effects of anticancer drugs and radiation often limit their dosage in cancer patients, an apoptosis suppressant drug may enable a more aggressive treatment regimen using anticancer drugs and radiation and thereby increase their effectiveness.
 
On the other hand, if the need is to kill cancerous cells, we focus our research efforts on restoring apoptotic mechanisms that are suppressed in tumors so that those cancerous cells will once again become vulnerable to apoptotic death. In this regard, we believe that our drug candidates could have significant potential for improving and becoming vital to the treatment of cancer patients.
 
Our Products and Technology
 
Through our R&D, and our strategic partnerships, we have established a technological foundation for the development of new pharmaceuticals and their rapid preclinical evaluation. We have acquired rights to develop and commercialize the following prospective drugs:
 
 
·
Protectans are modified proteins of microbes and tumors that protect cells from apoptosis, and which therefore have a broad spectrum of potential applications. These potential applications include both non-medical applications such as protection from exposure to radiation, whether as a result of military or terrorist action or as a result of a nuclear accident, as well as medical applications such as reducing cancer treatment toxicities.
 
 
·
Curaxins are small molecules designed to kill tumor cells by simultaneously targeting two regulators of apoptosis. Initial test results indicate that curaxins can be effective against a number of malignancies, including hormone-refractory prostate cancer, renal cell carcinoma, or RCC (a highly fatal form of kidney cancer), and soft-tissue sarcoma.
 
In the area of radiation protection, we have achieved high levels of protection in animal models. With respect to cancer treatment, the biology of cancer is such that there is no single drug that can be successfully used to treat 100% or even 50% of all cancer patients. This means that there likely will be a need for additional anticancer drugs for each type of cancer.
 
These drug candidates demonstrate the value of our scientific foundation. Based on the expedited approval process currently available for non-medical applications such as protection from exposure to radiation, our most advanced drug candidate, Protectan CBLB502, may be approved for such applications within 24 months. Another drug candidate, Curaxin CBLC102, demonstrated activity and safety in a Phase IIa clinical trial concluded in late 2008.

Our Industry
 
CBLI is a biotechnology, or biotech, company focused on developing cancer treatment, tissue protection and biodefense drugs. Historically, biotech was defined by newly discovered “genetic engineering” technology, which was first developed in universities and new startup biotech companies in the mid-1970s. Later, other technologies (based on a constant flow of discoveries in the field of biology) started playing a leading role in biotech development. Medicine, and specifically drug development, is a lucrative field for use of these technologies. Large pharmaceutical, or Pharma, companies joined the biotech arena through licensing, sponsored research, and corporate agreement relationships. Today biotech is a $296 billion industry (based on total market capitalization) and includes large companies such as Amgen, Inc. and Genentech, Inc.

The traditional biotech business model is a derivative of the long drug development process. Typical biotech companies go through the following stages:

·
During the first stage, biotech companies fund their development through equity or debt financings while conducting R&D, which culminates in phased drug trials.

·
During the second stage, when their lead drug candidates enter the drug trials, biotech companies may start licensing their drug candidates to Pharma companies in order to (1) generate revenue, (2) gain access to additional expertise, and (3) establish relations with Pharma companies in the market who can eventually take a leading role in distributing successful drugs.

·
At the most advanced stage, biotech companies generate revenues by selling drugs or other biotech products to consumers or through alliances of equals.
 
The Project BioShield Act, which was signed into law in July 2004, allocated $5.6 billion over ten years to fund the research, development and procurement of drugs, biological products or devices to treat or prevent injury from exposure to biological, chemical, radiological or nuclear agents as a result of a military, terrorist or nuclear attack. The legislation provides for a more expedited approval process by allowing for approval based on Phase I safety studies in humans and efficacy studies in two animal species (rodents and non-human primates) instead of Phase II and III human clinical trials. With the Project BioShield Act, biotech companies now have greater access to grants and contracts with the U.S. government. Several biotech companies have secured grants and contracts from the U.S. government to develop drugs and vaccines as medical countermeasures against potential terrorist attacks. For biotech companies focused on these types of drugs and vaccines, this type of funding, together with the modified Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approval process, are major departures from the traditional biotech business model. The principal provisions of this law are to:

·
Facilitate R&D efforts of biomedical countermeasures by the National Institutes of Health;

·
Provide for the procurement of needed countermeasures through a special reserve fund of $5.6 billion over ten years; and

·
Authorize, under limited circumstances, the emergency use of medical products that have not been approved by the FDA.

Series D Private Placement

In a series of closings on each of February 13, 2009, March 20, 2009, and March 27, 2009, we consummated a transaction with various accredited investors in which we agreed to sell to the investors, in a private placement, Series D Preferred originally convertible into an aggregate of 3,877,386 shares of common stock, and Series D Warrants originally exercisable for an aggregate of 3,877,386 shares of our common stock. The transaction was consummated pursuant to Securities Purchase Agreements entered into on February 13, 2009, March 20, 2009, and March 27, 2009. The current conversion price of the Series D Preferred is $1.33 per share and the current exercise price of the Series D Warrants is $1.60 per share. As discussed in more detail below, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred is subject to certain automatic adjustments that will periodically increase the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred. The aggregate purchase price paid by the investors for the Series D Preferred and the Series D Warrants was approximately $5,428,307. After related fees and expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $4,460,000. We intend to use the proceeds for working capital purposes.

Garden State Securities, Inc., or GSS, served as exclusive placement agent for the transaction. In consideration for its services, GSS and its designees (including designees of GSS’s sub-agents) received Common Stock Purchase Warrants (“Agent Warrants”) to purchase 387,736 shares of common stock. GSS and its sub-agents also received cash compensation equal to 10% of the aggregate offering amount in the transaction.

In the aggregate, the Series D Preferred, the Series D Warrants, and the Agent Warrants issued in the transaction were convertible into and exercisable for, as of the date of the final closing on March 27, 2009, 8,142,508 shares of common stock (subject to certain automatic adjustments with respect to the Series D Preferred, and certain other adjustments with respect to the Series D Preferred, the Series D Warrants, and the Agent Warrants for events such as stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications or similar events). Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(d) (formerly Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(i)(1)(D)(ii)) requires that, for the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock outstanding before the issuance, for less than the greater of book or market value of the common stock, we must obtain stockholder approval for the issuance. Accordingly, the conversion of the Series D Preferred and the exercise of the Series D Warrants and Agent Warrants into common stock by their respective holders was submitted for approval and was approved by our stockholders at our 2009 annual stockholders meeting on June 25, 2009. Our stockholders also approved an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 80,000,000, which was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on June 25, 2009.

The conversion price of the Series D Preferred is subject to automatic adjustments pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Certificate of Designation”), which provides that (i) on the six month anniversary of the original issue date (i.e., August 13, 2009, or the “Initial Adjustment Date”), the conversion price of $1.40 reduced to equal 95% of the then conversion price (i.e., $1.40 * 0.95 = $1.33), and (ii) on each three month anniversary of the Initial Adjustment Date until maturity of the Series D Preferred, the then conversion price shall be reduced by the product of (a) the initial conversion price of the Series D Preferred ($1.85) and (b) 2.5%, thus equating to a reduction of $0.05 (i.e., $1.85 * .025) on each three month anniversary of the Initial Adjustment Date. On November 13, 2009, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred will adjust from $1.33 to $1.28, and on February 13, 2010, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred will adjust from $1.28 to $1.23. The references to conversion prices of $1.40 and $1.85 in the foregoing calculations related to the fact that the conversion price of the Series D Preferred was reduced from $1.85 to $1.40 between the time of the first closing on February 13, 2009 and the time of the second closing on March 20, 2009. The reduction of the conversion price of the Series D Preferred from $1.40 to $1.33 on August 13, 2009 caused the number of shares of common stock underlying the Series D Preferred to increase from 3,877,386 to 4,081,515 as of that date. As a result of conversions of Series D Preferred that have occurred, there are, as of the date hereof, 3,648,508 shares of common stock underlying the outstanding Series D Preferred. The Series D Warrants and Agent Warrants are not subject to any similar periodic adjustments. As a result of exercises of Series D Warrants and Agent Warrants that have occurred, there are 4,041,268 shares of common stock underlying the Series D Warrants and Agent Warrants as of the date hereof.

Notwithstanding the conversion rights and exercise rights of the holders of Series D Preferred, Series D Warrants, and Agent Warrants, we may not issue any shares of common stock in conversion of the Series D Preferred or in exercise of any Series D Warrant or Agent Warrant if the conversion or exercise would cause the applicable holder to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock that exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding after giving effect to the conversion or exercise.

 In connection with obtaining stockholder approval of the foregoing issuances, on February 13, 2009, we entered into a Voting Agreement with our directors, executive officers and the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, a large stockholder, and subsequently, on March 20, 2009, we entered into a Voting Agreement with certain additional stockholders.  Each of the counterparties to the Voting Agreements agreed to vote in favor of authorizing the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying all of the Series D Preferred, the Series D Warrants, and the Agent Warrants. In the aggregate, these counterparties to the Voting Agreements held approximately 33% of all votes entitled to be cast as of the record date.

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreements, we also entered into Registration Rights Agreements with the investors, dated as of February 13, 2009, March 20, 2009, and March 27, 2009 (the “Series D Registration Rights Agreements”). Under the Series D Registration Rights Agreements, we granted the investors certain registration rights with respect to common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred and exercise of the Series D Warrants. In addition, pursuant to the Selling Agent Agreement (the “Agent Agreement”) we entered into with GSS, recipients of the Agent Warrants could request to have the shares underlying their Agent Warrants included in this registration statement (but such shares were subject to cutbacks from registration prior to the shares underlying the Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants if a reduction in the registration was required by the Securities and Exchange Commission). This registration statement is being filed to satisfy the registration rights granted under the Series D Registration Rights Agreement, and with respect thereto, covers 4,366,381 shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants.
 
The number of shares being registered on this registration statement (4,366,381) is equal to the sum of (i) 3,945,149, which is the number of shares of common stock underlying  Series D Preferred (based on the conversion price of $1.23, which will be in effect as of February 13, 2010), and (ii) 421,232, which is the number of shares of common stock underlying Series D Warrants that are being registered on this registration statement. The dollar value of these securities, as of the date hereof, is $8,660,806.04, calculated as the sum of the following:

 
·
$3,979,644.40 (calculated as the 1,349,032 shares of common stock underlying Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants issued in the February 13, 2009 closing that are being registered on this registration statement, multiplied by $2.95 (the closing price of our common stock on that date, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market));

 
·
$3,196,906.34 (calculated as the 2,385,751 shares of common stock underlying Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants issued in the March 20, 2009 closing that are being registered on this registration statement, multiplied by $1.34 (the closing price of our common stock on that date, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market)); and

 
·
$1,484,255.30 (calculated as the 631,598 shares of common stock underlying Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants issued in the March 27, 2009 closing that are being registered on this registration statement, multiplied by $2.35 (the closing price of our common stock on that date, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market)).

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans and objectives. The words “may,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “continue,” “believe,” “seek,” “project,” “estimate” and similar expressions used in this prospectus or incorporated in this prospectus by reference that do not relate to historical facts are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. By way of example, statements regarding the following subjects are forward-looking by their nature:

·
statements as to the anticipated timing of clinical tests and other business developments;

·
statements as to the development of new products and the commercialization of products;

·
expectations as to the adequacy of our cash balances to support our operations for specified periods of time and as to the nature and level of cash expenditures; and

·
expectations as to the market opportunities for our drug candidates as well as our ability to take advantage of those opportunities.
 
The forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs, plans, expectations and assumptions and on information available to us as of the time such statements were made. These beliefs, plans, expectations and assumptions can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. Neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of these statements. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this prospectus or incorporated in this prospectus by reference are not representations or guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Such risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, any risk factors set forth in our other filings with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or in any supplement to this prospectus. Many of such factors are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. As a result, our future actions, financial position and results of operations could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us. Readers are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We also do not intend to publicly update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by us or on our behalf, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
 
USE OF PROCEEDS
 
       All proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by this prospectus will be received by the selling stockholders, although we will receive proceeds from the exercise in cash of the Series D Warrants for common stock. We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of the Series D Warrants for working capital purposes.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The shares of common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Series D Preferred, and the issuance of the Series D Warrants and the Agent Warrants in connection therewith, see the section titled “Series D Private Placement” under the “Prospectus Summary” section of this prospectus. We are registering the shares of common stock to satisfy registration rights that we have granted to the selling stockholders, and in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for their ownership of the Series D Preferred or Series D Warrants, or as otherwise set forth below, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by each of the selling stockholders. The column titled “Shares of Common Stock Owned Before the Offering” lists the number of shares of common stock owned by each selling stockholder as of October 19, 2009, assuming conversion of all preferred stock and exercise of all warrants and options, including conversion of all Series D Preferred (at a conversion price of $1.23 that will be in effect as of February 13, 2010) and exercise of all Series D Warrants, without regard to any limitations on conversions or exercise. The column titled “Shares of Common Stock Being Offered” lists the shares of common stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus by the selling stockholders (i.e., the shares of common stock underlying their Series D Preferred or Series D Warrants, as applicable). Unless the footnotes to the selling stockholders table specifically provide otherwise, “Shares of Common Stock Being Offered” only includes shares of common stock underlying Series D Preferred (and not shares of common stock underlying Series D Warrants). The column titled “Shares of Common Stock Owned Upon Completion of the Offering” lists the shares of common stock owned by each selling stockholder, assuming the shares of common stock underlying the Series D Preferred or Series D Warrants that are listed under “Shares of Common Stock Being Offered” have been sold, and the column titled “Percentage of Common Stock Outstanding Upon Completion of the Offering” provides the percentage owned by each selling stockholder of all shares of common stock outstanding, assuming the same.

This prospectus covers the resale of 3,945,149 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred at the conversion price of $1.23 per share that will be in effect as of February 13, 2010, and 421,232 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of Series D Warrants.

The table below has been prepared based upon information regarding the selling stockholders as of October 19, 2009. Because the conversion price of the Series D Preferred and the exercise prices of the Series D Warrants are subject to adjustment for events such as dilutive issuances, stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications or similar events, the number of shares of common stock that will actually be issued upon conversion of the Series D Preferred or exercise of the Series D Warrants may be more or less than the number of shares being offered by this prospectus.

Under the terms of the Series D Certificate of Designation and the Series D Warrants, a selling stockholder may not convert the Series D Preferred, or exercise the Series D Warrants to the extent such conversion or exercise would cause such selling stockholder, together with its affiliates, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock that exceeds 9.99% of our then outstanding shares of common stock following such conversion or exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred that have not been converted, shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrants or the Agent Warrants that have not been exercised, and shares of common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any other securities subject to an analogous limitation on conversion or exercise. The entries in the table below do not reflect this limitation.  The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering.  See "Plan of Distribution."

The table below describes the value of payments made, or that could potentially be made, by the Company to selling stockholders, their affiliates and any persons with whom selling stockholders have a contractual relationship regarding the transaction. All of the payments made relate to compensation and expense reimbursement negotiated with the placement agent (and its designees)  in the transaction. The final category in the table below represents the maximum potential liquidated damages amount payable under certain provisions of the Registration Rights Agreements. This amount is not the only potential liquidated damages or penalty amount in connection with the Series D transaction, but is the only such amount that is currently ascertainable. A full discussion of the other potential liquidated damages and penalty amounts appears after the following table and the footnotes thereto.

1.  Unless otherwise noted, the value of the Agent Warrants is calculated based on the closing price of our common stock on March 27, 2009 (the date of issuance of the Agent Warrants), as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, of $2.35.

2.  In consideration for its services as placement agent, Garden State Securities, Inc. was entitled to receive Agent Warrants exercisable for common stock equal to 10% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock for which the Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants were convertible or exercisable in the transaction.  In addition to the Agent Warrants, Garden State Securities was entitled to cash compensation equal to 10% of the Company’s gross proceeds from the transaction. Garden State Securities was entitled to designate recipients of its Agent Warrants and to engage sub-placement agents who would receive an allocable portion of the Agent Warrants and cash compensation. As a result, after all these designations and allocations, Garden State Securities received $343,190.70 in cash payments (including $22,500 of expense reimbursement under the Agent Agreement) and Garden State and its designees received Agent Warrants exercisable for 226,207 shares of common stock (including an Agent Warrant exercisable for 10 shares of common stock that was issued on March 20, 2009, and which is thus valued at the closing price of our common stock on that date, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, of $1.34).

3.  In consideration for its services as sub-placement agent, Wunderlich Securities Inc. received $207,500.00 in cash payments and Wunderlich and its designees received Agent Warrants exercisable for 134,286 shares of common stock.

4.  In consideration for its services as sub-placement agent, Hallmark Investments received $38,400.00 in cash payments and Hallmark and its designees received Agent Warrants exercisable for 27,243 shares of common stock.

5.  The Registration Rights Agreements provide for liquidated damages in a monthly amount equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by a selling stockholder (up to a maximum of 15% of the aggregate subscription amount paid by such selling stockholder) for any unregistered shares of common stock (but not shares underlying the Series D Warrants) which are not registered by reason of any of the following events: (i) the initial registration statement is not first filed on or prior to its filing deadline, which was July 27, 2009; (ii) the Company fails to file a request for acceleration of effectiveness of a registration statement required under the Registration Rights Agreements (a "Required Registration Statement") within five trading days after the Company is advised by the SEC that the registration statement will not be reviewed or not be subject to further review; (iii) prior to effectiveness of any Required Registration Statement, the Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment or otherwise respond to comments by the SEC within 20 business days after receipt of comments from the SEC; (iv) a Required Registration Statement covering resale of the initial shares is not declared effective within 90 days of stockholder approval, which was received June 25, 2009, or 180 days of stockholder approval if the Required Registration Statement is reviewed by the SEC; (v) after the effective date of any Required Registration Statement, the Required Registration Statement ceases to be effective for more than 15 consecutive days or more than an aggregate of 30 days in any 12 month period; or (vi) the Company fails to remain in compliance with the public information requirements of Rule 144(c) of the Securities Act. The $814,246.07 presented in the table above is calculated as the aggregate subscription amounts paid by all selling stockholders ($5,428,307) multiplied by 15%.

In addition to the payments described above, we may from time to time deposit funds into a sinking fund account, which funds may be used to redeem the Series D Preferred on a pro rata basis. The Series D Certificate of Designation requires us to contribute funds to such an account if we receive any revenues from licensing certain intellectual property or if we receive awards from government agencies for certain purposes, or we can choose to voluntarily allocate funds to such account. After the later of (i) the six month anniversary of our initial contribution to the sinking fund, or (ii) the effectiveness of this registration statement, we are required to provide notice to the holders of the Series D Preferred no more than once every six months regarding the amount of cash, if any, in the sinking fund. Each holder of Series D Preferred then has the right to have us redeem the holder's shares of Series D Preferred on a pro rata basis, which redemption shall occur at 115% of the aggregated stated value of the shares of Series D Preferred prior to or on February 13, 2010, or at 120% of the aggregated stated value of the Series D Preferred thereafter.  At present time, we have not deposited any funds into the sinking fund account and have not been obligated to do so. We have the intention of making any payments from such sinking fund account in accordance with our obligation, and because these funds will be required to be set aside in the account, we have a reasonable basis to believe that we will have the financial ability to do so. Except as set forth above, we do not anticipate making any other payments to the selling stockholders or any of their affiliates in the first year following the sale of the Series D Preferred and the Series D Warrants.

Each of the Securities Purchase Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreements also contain provisions requiring the Company to pay liquidated damages to the selling stockholders if the Company fails to effectuate certain covenants within the prescribed period of time.  For example, the Securities Purchase Agreements provide that if a purchaser holds certificates for shares of common stock bearing a legend noting that such shares are subject to transfer restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended (the "Securities Act")  and such shares become subject to an effective registration statement or can be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration, the selling stockholder may request that the Company remove the legends within three trading days after the purchaser has submitted all required documentation for the conversion.  If the shares are not so delivered by the Company, liquidated damages accrue at the rate of $10 per trading day (increasing to $20 per trading after five trading days) per $1,000 in common stock submitted for each trading day after the trading day on which the shares were to be delivered.  The Securities Purchase Agreements also impose liquidated damages in the amount of 1.5% of a selling stockholder's entire subscription amount should the Company fail to be in compliance with the public information requirements of Rule 144(c) of the Securities Act which failure results in a delay or a reduction in the ability of the purchaser to sell its securities. The liquidated damages provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreements are discussed in footnote 5 to the table above.
 
The table below describes the total possible profit the selling stockholders could realize as a result of the conversion/exercise discount for the shares of common stock underlying the Series D Preferred and the Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants as of each Closing Date.

1.  The market price per share of common stock underlying the Series D Preferred and the Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants is based on the closing prices of our common stock on February 13, 2009, March 20, 2009, and March 27, 2009, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, of $2.95, $1.34, and $2.35, respectively.
 
2.  The conversion price of the Series D Preferred is subject to adjustment for events such as dilutive issuances, stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, or similar events.  This could result in an increase in the number of shares of common stock underlying the Series D Preferred.  In addition, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred is subject to automatic adjustments as explained below in footnote 4.
 
3.  The exercise price of the Series D Warrants and the Agent Warrants is subject to adjustment for events such as dilutive issuances, stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications or similar events.  In the case of stock splits or stock dividends, this could result in an increase in the number of shares of common stock underlying the Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants. In addition, the Series D Warrants and Agent Warrants may be exercised on a “cashless” basis if after the earlier of (i) the one year anniversary of the purchase date and (ii) the completion of the then applicable holding period required by Rule 144, an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock underlying the Series D Warrants and Agent Warrants is not effective.
 
4.  The total possible shares of common stock underlying Series D Preferred is based on a conversion price of $0.83, as calculated in accordance with Section 6(b) of the Series D Certificate of Designation, which provides that (i) on the six month anniversary of the original issue date (i.e., August 13, 2009, or the “Initial Adjustment Date”), the conversion price reduced to equal 95% of the then conversion price (i.e., $1.40 * 0.95 = $1.33), and (ii) on each three month anniversary of the Initial Adjustment Date until maturity of the Series D Preferred, the then conversion price shall be reduced by the product of (a) the initial conversion price of the Series D Preferred ($1.85) and (b) 2.5%, thus equating to a reduction of $0.05 (i.e., $1.85 * .025) on each three month anniversary of the Initial Adjustment Date. The Series D Preferred mature on February 13, 2012, at which time the conversion price will be $0.83, barring any adjustments other than the automatic adjustments described in the foregoing sentence.

5.  The table above reflects a conversion price of the Series D Preferred of $1.40 and an exercise price of the Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants of $1.60 as of February 13, 2009. However, the actual conversion and exercise prices of these securities, as of the February 13, 2009 closing, were $1.85 and $2.60, respectively.  The prices were adjusted to $1.40 and $1.60 after the February 13, 2009 closing pursuant to certain amendment and waiver agreements entered into by the Company and the investors.  If the February 13, 2009 entry in the table above were prepared using the original conversion price of $1.85 for the Series D Preferred and the original exercise price of $2.60 for the Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants, the combined conversion/exercise price of total possible shares underlying the Series D Preferred and Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants would be $6,953,585.20 instead of $4,815,378.40, and the total possible profit the selling stockholders could realize from the conversion/exercise discount would be $2,680,840.45 instead of $4,819,047.25. On this basis, the aggregate total possible profit the selling stockholders could realize from the conversion/exercise discount would be $3,539,482.58 instead of $5,677,689.38.

6.  The March 20, 2009 entry for “Total Possible Shares of Common Stock Underlying Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants” includes 10 shares of common stock underlying an Agent Warrant with an exercise price of $1.60 per share and a market price of $1.34 per share, yielding a total possible profit of -$2.60. The holder of this Agent Warrant is not a selling stockholder on this registration statement.

7.  The March 27, 2009 entry for “Total Possible Shares of Common Stock Underlying Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants” includes 387,726 shares of common stock underlying Agent Warrants with an exercise price of $1.60 per share and a market price of $2.35 per share, yielding a total possible profit of $290,794.50. The holders of these Agent Warrants are not selling stockholders on this registration statement.

The Company’s relationship and arrangements during the past three years with the selling stockholders, any affiliates of the selling stockholders, or any person with whom any selling stockholder has a contractual relationship are limited to (i) the Company’s entry into an Agent Agreement with GSS, pursuant to which GSS served as placement agent for the Series D transaction, and (ii) participation by certain selling stockholders in previous private placements. With regard to the latter, the following persons were participants in our sale of Series A Preferred Stock, consummated on March 15, 2005:  Robert Cohen, Bear Stearns Securities Corp. Custodian for Stuart Schapiro IRA (an affiliate of JPMCC FBO Stuart Schapiro JMPCC Master Defined Cont Money Purchase Pension Plan), F Berdon Co. LP (an affiliate of Berdon Ventures LLC), and Philip and Maxine Patt. In addition, the following persons were participants in our sale of Series B Preferred Stock, consummated on March 16, 2007:  J.S.A. Investments, LLC, TCMP3 Partners, Robert Cohen, F Berdon Co. LP (an affiliate of Berdon Ventures LLC), and Iroquois Master Fund Ltd. The tables below describe in further detail prior securities transactions between us and those selling stockholders.

3.  The shares in this column list the Series B Warrants currently held by the selling stockholders, and reflect acquisitions and dispositions of those securities by the selling stockholders after the Series B transaction.

    183.96 %

1.  The table above reflects a conversion price of the Series D Preferred of $1.40 and an exercise price of the Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants of $1.60 as of February 13, 2009. However, the actual conversion and exercise prices of these securities, as of the February 13, 2009 closing, were $1.85 and $2.60, respectively.  The prices were adjusted to $1.40 and $1.60 after the February 13, 2009 closing pursuant to certain amendment and waiver agreements entered into by the Company and the investors. If the calculation of total possible profit were prepared using the original conversion price of $1.85 for the Series D Preferred and the original exercise price of $2.60 for the Series D Warrants with respect to the February 13, 2009 closing, the aggregate total possible profit the selling stockholders could realize from the conversion/exercise discount would be $3,539,482.58 instead of $5,677,689.38. On that basis, the total possible profit to be realized from the total possible discount to market price upon conversion of Series D Preferred and exercise of Series D Warrants/Agent Warrants as a percentage of net proceeds would be 114.68% instead of 183.96%.
 
2. Averaged over the three-year term of the Series D Preferred, this percentage equals approximately 25.29% per year. Averaged over the seven-year term of the Series D Warrants, this percentage equals approximately 10.84% per year. Excluding potential other ascertainable payments from the calculation of net proceeds, and thus only including payments that have been made, this calculation would be 39.17% instead of 75.88%. On such basis, the average over the three-year term of the Series D Preferred would be 13.06% per year and the average over the seven-year term of the Series D Warrants would be 5.60% per year.
 
3.  Averaged over the three-year term of the Series D Preferred, this percentage equals approximately 61.32% per year. Averaged over the seven-year term of the Series D Warrants, this percentage equals approximately 26.28% per year. Excluding potential other ascertainable payments from the calculation of net proceeds, and thus only including payments that have been made, this calculation would be 145.56% instead of 183.96%. On such basis, the average over the three-year term of the Series D Preferred would be 48.52% per year and the average over the seven-year term of the Series D Warrants would be 20.79% per year.
 
In addition, as discussed in more detail above, the Company may be required, in certain instances, to make payments to the selling stockholders pursuant to the sinking fund provisions or the liquidated damages provisions of the Series D transaction documents.  To the extent any such payments are required of the Company, the payment amount set forth above would increase by a corresponding amount as would the payments made as a percentage of net proceeds.

In the Securities Purchase Agreements, each investor represented that it had not directly or indirectly engaged in any purchase or sale of securities of the Company, including any short sales, during the period commencing from the time that such investor first received a summary of terms (written or oral) from the Company or any other person setting forth the material terms of the Series D transaction. Each investor also agreed not to engage in such transactions prior to the filing of our report on Form 8-K describing the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreements. In the Securities Purchase Agreements, each investor also acknowledged the positions of the SEC as set forth in Item 65, Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
Each selling stockholder of the common stock and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock covered hereby on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions.  These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices.  A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
 
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
 
·
privately negotiated transactions;
 
 
·
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;
 
 
·
in transaction through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
 
·
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
 
 
·
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
 
 
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales.  Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction, not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction, a markup or markdown in compliance with NASD IM-2440.
 
In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume.  The selling stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities.  The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 
22

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales.  In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.  Each selling stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).
 
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the shares.  The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
Because selling stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder.  The selling stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the selling stockholders.
 
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this or another prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect.  The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares of common stock covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
 
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution.  In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person.  We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

INDEMNIFICATION
 
Section 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) allows a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors to a corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of a fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase or redemption in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, CBLI’s Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision eliminating the personal liability of a director to CBLI or its stockholders to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL .
 
Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify directors, officers, employees and other agents of such corporation in an action by or in the right of a corporation under the same conditions against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense and settlement of such action or suit, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the person to be indemnified has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where a present or former director or officer of the corporation is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation must indemnify such person against the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which he or she actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. CBLI’s Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions that provide for indemnification of officers and directors and each person who is or was serving at the request of CBLI as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise to the full extent permitted by the DGCL.
 
Section 174 of the DGCL provides, among other things, that a director who willfully or negligently approves of an unlawful payment of dividends or an unlawful stock purchase or redemption, may be held liable for such actions. A director who was either absent when the unlawful actions were approved or dissented at the time, may avoid liability by causing his or her dissent to such actions to be entered into the books containing the minutes of the meetings of the board of directors at the time such action occurred or immediately after such absent director receives notice of the unlawful acts.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.
 
CBLI maintains, at its expense, a policy of insurance which insures its directors and officers, subject to exclusions and deductions as are usual in these kinds of insurance policies, against specified liabilities which may be incurred in those capacities.

UNDERTAKINGS
 
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(a)        (1)        To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
 
    (i)        To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
 
   (ii)        To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in this Registration Statement;

    (iii)        To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
 
         Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii), and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the Registration Statement.
 
        (2)         That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
        (3)         To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(b)        That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(c)        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any such action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
