Part I
Item 1. Business
IGI, Inc. ("IGI" or the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware in
1977. Its executive offices are at 105 Lincoln Avenue, Buena, New Jersey.
The Company is engaged in the production and marketing of cosmetics and skin
care products.
In December 1995, IGI distributed its ownership of its majority-owned
subsidiary, Novavax, Inc. ("Novavax"), in the form of a tax-free stock
dividend, to IGI stockholders. Novavax had comprised the biotechnology
business segment of IGI. In connection with the distribution, the Company
paid Novavax $5,000,000 in return for a ten-year license (the "IGI License
Agreement") entitling it to the exclusive use of the Novasome(R) lipid
vesicle encapsulation and certain other technologies ("Microencapsulation
Technologies" or collectively the "Technologies") in the fields of (i)
animal pharmaceuticals, biologicals and other animal health products; (ii)
foods, food applications, nutrients and flavorings; (iii) cosmetics,
consumer products and dermatological over-the-counter and prescription
products (excluding certain topically delivered hormones); (iv) fragrances;
and (v) chemicals, including herbicides, insecticides, pesticides, paints
and coatings, photographic chemicals and other specialty chemicals, and the
processes for making the same (collectively, the "IGI Field"). IGI has the
option, exercisable within the last year of the ten-year term, to extend the
exclusive license for an additional ten-year period for $1,000,000. Novavax
has retained the right to use the Technologies for applications outside the
IGI Field, mainly human vaccines and pharmaceuticals.
Consumer Products Business
IGI's Consumer Products business is primarily focused on the continued
commercialization of the Microencapsulation Technologies for skin care
applications. These efforts have been directed toward the development of
high quality skin care products that the Company markets through
collaborative arrangements with major cosmetic and consumer products
companies. IGI plans to continue to work with cosmetics, food, personal care
products and over-the-counter ("OTC") pharmaceutical companies for
commercial applications of the Microencapsulation Technologies. Because of
their ability to encapsulate skin protective agents, oils, moisturizers,
shampoos, conditioners, skin cleansers and fragrances and to provide both a
controlled and a sustained release of the encapsulated materials,
Novasome(R) lipid vesicles are well-suited to cosmetics and consumer product
applications. For example, Novasome(R) lipid vesicles may be used to deliver
moisturizers and other active ingredients to the deeper layers of the skin
or hair follicles for a prolonged period; to deliver or preserve ingredients
which impart favorable cosmetic characteristics described in the cosmetics
industry as "feel," "substantivity," "texture" or "fragrance" and to deliver
normally incompatible ingredients in the same preparation, with one
ingredient being shielded or protected from the other by encapsulation
within the Novasome(R) vesicle.
The Company produces Novasome(R) vesicles for various skin care
products, including those marketed by Estee Lauder such as "All You Need,"
"Re-Nutriv," "Virtual Skin," "100% Time Release Moisturizer," "Resilience,"
"Surface Optimizing," "Vibrant" and others. Sales to Estee Lauder accounted
for $1,812,000 or 51% of 2003 revenues, $2,629,000 or 60% of 2002 revenues
and $2,725,000 or 63% of 2001 revenues. Also, the Company received $28,000
of royalty income in 2003 from Estee Lauder pursuant to the Company's
agreement with Estee Lauder for various Novasome(R) vesicles skin care
products produced by Estee Lauder.
In February 2001, the Company signed a new manufacturing and supply
agreement and an assignment of trademark agreement for the WellSkinTM line
of skin care products with Genesis Pharmaceutical, Inc. The manufacturing
and supply agreement expires on December 13, 2005 and contains two ten-year
renewal options. The Company received a lump sum payment of $525,000 for the
assignment of the trademark, which is being recognized ratably over the term
of the arrangement. The Company recognized $105,000 of income related to
this agreement in each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001.
The Company entered into a sublicense agreement with Johnson & Johnson
Consumer Products, Inc. ("J&J") in 1995. The agreement provided J&J with a
sublicense to produce and sell Novasome(R) microencapsulated retinoid
products and provides for the payment of royalties on net sales of such
products. J&J began selling such products and making royalty payments in the
first quarter of 1998. The Company recognized $488,000, $714,000 and
$856,000 of royalty income related to this agreement for the years ended
December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. As noted above, royalties
are calculated on net sales of microencapsulated retinoid products. The
future sales trends of these products are not known by the Company.
In August 1998, the Company granted Johnson & Johnson Medical ("JJM"),
a division of Ethicon, Inc., worldwide sublicense rights for the use of the
Novasome(R) technology for certain products and distribution channels. The
agreement provided for JJM to pay the Company $300,000, as well as future
royalty payments based on JJM's sales of sublicensed products. The Company
recognized $35,000, $32,000 and $105,000 of royalty income in 2003, 2002 and
2001, respectively, related to the agreement. In March of 2002, the
agreement between the Company and JJM was amended stating that JJM is no
longer required to make minimum payments and the sublicense has been
converted to a non-exclusive worldwide sublicense with the exception of
Japan, which will remain exclusive. If the amount of royalties paid by JJM
equals or exceeds $200,000 in any year, the following calendar year will
become an exclusive worldwide agreement and will remain so until royalties
fall below that amount.
In July 2001, the Company entered into a Research, Development and
Manufacturing Agreement with Apollo Pharmaceutical (Canada), Inc.
("Apollo"), previously known as Prime Pharmaceutical Corporation. The
purpose of the agreement was to develop a facial lotion, a facial creme and
scalp application for the treatment of psoriasis. The project has been
completed in stages with amounts being paid to the Company with the
successful completion of each stage. In addition, the Company has agreed to
rebate $3.60 per kilogram for the first 12,500 kilograms of product
manufactured for and sold to Apollo. The Company recognized $40,000 of
product sales related to this project in 2001.
2
In November 2002, the Company entered into a Manufacturing Service
Agreement with Desert Whale Jojoba Company, Inc. The purpose of this
agreement is to develop and manufacture jojobasomes to be used as a personal
care product. This project was in a developmental stage through 2002. The
Company recognized $7,000 of product sales related to this project in 2003.
Other Novasome(R) Lipid Vesicles Developments
On July 23, 2003, Dr. Michael F. Holick, a professor of Medicine,
Dermatology, Physiology and Biophysics at the Boston University School of
Medicine, was appointed to head IGI's newly formed Scientific Advisory
Board. Dr. Holick's many accomplishments, including the discovery of the
active form of Vitamin D, and his extensive research in dermatology,
combined with IGI's exclusive use of the patented Novasome(R) technologies
in its delivery systems, should enable the Company to further advance IGI's
position in the topical dermatologics market.
On August 11, 2003, researchers at Boston University Medical Center,
led by Dr. Holick, reported the first successful development of a topical
peptide drug for the treatment of psoriasis. The parathyroid hormone analog
PTH (1-34) was successfully encapsulated in Novasome(R) A cream, which
enhanced the absorption of this peptide drug into human skin. This study
appeared in the August 2003 issue of the British Journal of Dermatology. The
study conducted a randomized, self-controlled double-blinded trial of 15
adult patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. Each patient applied to one
lesion Novasome(R) A cream and a comparable lesion with Novasome(R) A cream
that contained PTH (1-34). The psoriatic lesions treated with PTH (1-34)
showed marked improvement in scaling, erythema and in duration. There was a
67.3% improvement in the global severity score for the lesion treated with
Novasome(R) A cream containing PTH (1-34) compared to the placebo-treated
lesion, which only showed a 17.8% improvement. In an open trial, ten
patients topically applied PTH (1-34) in Novasome(R) A cream on all of their
lesions in a step wise manner. A Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score
analysis of all patients revealed an improvement of 42.6% (p < 0.02). None
of the patients experienced hypercalcemia or hypercalciuria or developed any
side effects with the medication. The study concluded that patients who were
resistant to at least one standard therapy for psoriasis had an improvement
in their psoriasis when they applied PTH (1-34) in Novasome(R) A cream to
their lesion. No untoward toxicity was observed in any of the subjects. This
pilot study suggests that topical PTH (1-34) encapsulated in Novasome(R) A
cream is a safe and effective novel therapy for psoriasis.
This was the first demonstration for the successful encapsulation of a
peptide drug for the treatment of a skin disease. These observations pave
the way for the application of the Novasome(R) technology for peptide drugs
for the treatment of other skin diseases.
On August 26, 2003, Dr. Holick and his team of scientists at Boston
University Medical Center reported that in animal studies a parathyroid
hormone related peptide antagonist [PTH (7-34)] stimulated epidermal
proliferation and hair growth in mice. The biologic action of parathyroid
hormone (PTH) related peptide (PTHrP) in normal skin was investigated in
cultured human keratinocytes and in SKH-1 hairless mice. The results
indicated that the PTHrP receptor antagonist PTH (7-34) stimulated epidermal
DNA synthesis in SKH-1 hairless mice by 144%. In addition, these hairless
mice had marked increase in the number (146%) and length (80%) of hair
shafts, respectively. They also found that the PTHrP receptor agonist [PTH
(1-34)] was effective in inhibiting DNA synthesis in the epidermis (Holick,
M.F., Ray, S., Chen, T.C., Tian, X., and Persons, K.S., A Parathyroid
Hormone Antagonist Stimulates Epidermal Proliferation and Hair Growth in
Mice, Proc. Nat'l. Acad. Sci, Vol. 91, 8014-8016 (1994)). These results
provide evidence that PTHrP may be an important regulator in normal skin
physiology and that its receptor agonists and antagonists have potentially
wide therapeutic applications in the treatment of hyperproliferative skin
disorders and aging skin and could also be effective in stimulating and
maintaining hair growth.
Chemotherapy-induced alopecia is one of the fundamental unsolved
problems of clinical oncology, which is driven in part by abnormalities
induced by the chemotherapy on the hair follicle cycle. Dr. Holick and his
team have explored the therapeutic potential of PTHrP receptor agonists and
antagonists in a mouse model of chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide) induced
alopecia. Mice that received PTH (7-34) significantly mitigated the hair
follicular response to cyclophosphamide. Furthermore, there was more rapid
hair regrowth of more robust hair follicles, compared to the animals that
received placebo and chemotherapy (Peters, Eva, M.J., Foitzik, K., Paus, R.,
Ray, S., and Holick, M.F., A New Strategy for Modulating Chemotherapy-
Induced Alopecia, Using PTH/PTHrP Receptor Agonist and Antagonist, J.
Invest. Dermatol. 117:173-178; 2001).
This study in an established animal model for chemotherapy-induced
alopecia, which closely mimics human chemotherapy induced alopecia, suggests
the possibility that PTHrP receptor agonists and antagonists can be
developed as novel therapeutic agents in chemotherapy-induced alopecia.
Based on these findings, a study is planned to determine whether topical PTH
(7-34) formulated in Novasome(R) cream will be effective in mitigating
chemotherapy induced alopecia in breast cancer patients and help accelerate
more robust hair regrowth.
On September 26, 2003, the Company entered into an employment
agreement with Dr. Holick where he will serve as the Company's Vice
President of Research and Development and Chief Scientific Officer for a
term of three years.
On December 24, 2003, the Company entered into a License Agreement
with Dr. Holick and A&D Bioscience, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation wholly
owned by Dr. Holick (collectively referred to as "Holick"), whereby Holick
granted an exclusive license to the Company to all his rights to the
parathyroid hormone related peptide technologies and the Glycoside
technologies (referred to as "PTH Technologies" and "Glycoside
Technologies", respectively) that he developed for various clinical usages
including treatment of psoriasis, hair loss and other skin disorders. In
consideration for entering into the License Agreement, Holick received up-
front a $50,000 non-refundable payment from the Company. He will also
receive a grant of 300,000 stock options under the Company's authorized
stock option plans. In addition, Holick shall receive a single milestone
payment contingent on the execution of a sublicense agreement between the
Company and a third-party for the licensed technologies. Certain subsequent
royalty payments received by the Company under a sublicense agreement will
be shared with Holick after the Company has recovered any payments
previously made to Holick under the License Agreement and an amount equal to
the value of the options received by Holick under the License Agreement. The
Company is responsible for any and all costs, fees and expenses for the
prosecution and oversight of any intellectual property rights related to the
licensed technologies. Subject to Holick's early termination rights as
provided below, the term of the License Agreement is the longer of twenty
(20) years or the life of each of the patents thereunder. However, if within
180 days from the effective date of the License Agreement, the Company has
not entered into a sublicense agreement for the PTH Technologies or raised
sufficient capital to fund Phase 1 of the New Drug Study Human Clinical
Trial for Alopecia, Holick has the right to terminate the License Agreement
as to the PTH Technologies only, provided Holick returns any and all
consideration he received from or paid by the Company under the License
Agreement prior thereto, excluding the up-front payment. Further, if within
90 days from the effective date of the License Agreement, the Company has
not entered into a sublicense agreement for the Glycoside Technologies,
Holick has the right to terminate the License Agreement as to the Glycoside
Technologies only. The Company is currently negotiating a sublicense
agreement with a third party entity for the PTH (1-34) technology. The
Company is likewise engaged in discussions with the same third party entity
for a similar sublicense for the PTH (7-34) technology. The $50,000 payment
was expensed because the PTH and Glycoside Technologies are in a preliminary
development phase and do not have any readily determinable alternative
future use. The stock options will be valued as of the earlier of the
passage of the 180 days or the signing of a sublicense agreement for the
PTH Technologies. Such value, as well as any amounts advanced for the
prosecution and oversight of any intellectual property rights related to the
licensed technologies, will be expensed once the 180-day provision is
rendered inoperative.

Discontinued Operations
On September 15, 2000, the shareholders of the Company approved, and
the Company consummated, the sale of the assets and transfer of the
liabilities of the Vineland division, which produced and marketed poultry
vaccines and related products. The Company's results reflect a $283,000 gain
on the sale of the Vineland division for the year ended December 31, 2001.
On May 31, 2002, the shareholders of the Company approved, and the
Company consummated, the sale of the assets and transfer of the liabilities
of the Companion Pet Products division, which marketed companion pet care
related products. The buyer assumed liabilities of approximately $986,000,
and paid the Company cash in the amount of $16,254,000. The Company's
results reflect a $12,433,000 gain on the sale of the Companion Pet Products
division for the year ended December 31, 2002. The gain is net of direct
costs incurred by the Company in connection with the sale and the reduction
in the purchase price resulting from post-closing adjustments. For the year
ended December 31, 2003, the Company had a gain on the disposal of
discontinued operations of $435,000, which primarily consisted of a net gain
of $169,000 for an insurance settlement, net of legal costs, for damages
incurred by the Company as a result of a heating oil leak at the Companion
Pet Products manufacturing site and a net gain of $288,000 on the sale of
the former Companion Pet Products manufacturing site land and building on
December 18, 2003. The Companion Pet Products division incurred losses of
$523,000 and $720,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. The results for the year ended December 31, 2002 included an
impairment charge of $630,000 related to the Companion Pet Products
warehouse. Upon the sale of the Companion Pet Products division, the Company
paid all of its debt and interest owed to Fleet Capital Corporation
("Fleet") and American Capital Strategies, Ltd. ("ACS"). As a result, the
Company incurred a $2,654,000 loss from early extinguishment of debt in
connection with the prepayment fees paid to Fleet and ACS and the write-off
of the ACS debt discount.
During 2001, the Company recorded non-recurring charges related to the
cessation and shutdown of the manufacturing operations at the Companion Pet
Products facility of $991,000 offset by a grant from the State of New Jersey
for $81,000, for a net charge of $910,000. The Company applied to the New
Jersey Economic Development Authority and the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection for a grant and loan to provide partial funding for
the costs of investigation and remediation of the environmental
contamination discovered at the Companion Pet Products facility. On June 26,
2001, the Company was awarded an $81,000 grant and a $246,000 loan. The
$81,000 grant was received in the third quarter of 2001. The loan, which
required monthly principal payments, had a term of ten years at a rate of
interest of 5%. The Company received funding of $45,000 and $182,000 from
the loan during 2003 and 2002, respectively. On December 18, 2003, the loan
was paid in full upon the sale of the former Companion Pet Products
facility, which had served as collateral for the loan.
Manufacturing
The Company's manufacturing operations include bulk manufacturing and
testing of cosmetics, dermatologics, emulsions and shampoos. The raw
materials included in these products are available from several suppliers.
The Company produces quantities of Novasome(R) lipid vesicles adequate to
meet its current and foreseeable needs.
Research and Development
The Company's consumer products development efforts are directed
toward Novasome(R) encapsulation to improve performance and efficacy of
pesticides, specialty and other chemicals, biocides, cosmetics, consumer
products, flavors and dermatologic products. Total product development and
research expenses were $762,000, $549,000 and $536,000 in 2003, 2002 and
2001, respectively.
Patents
All of the names of the Company's major products are registered in the
United States and all significant markets in which the Company sells its
products. The Company maintains patents in various countries covering
certain of its products. Under the terms of the 1995 IGI License Agreement,
the Company has an exclusive ten-year license to use the Technologies
licensed from Novavax in the IGI Field. Novavax holds 44 U.S. patents and a
number of foreign patents covering the Technologies licensed to IGI.

Government Regulation and Regulatory Proceedings
Government Regulations
In the United States, pharmaceuticals are subject to rigorous FDA
regulation including pre-clinical and clinical testing. The process of
completing clinical trials and obtaining FDA approvals for a new drug is
likely to take a number of years, requires the expenditure of substantial
resources and is often subject to unanticipated delays. There can be no
assurance that any product will receive such approval on a timely basis, if
at all.
In addition to product approval, the Company may be required to obtain
a satisfactory inspection by the FDA covering its manufacturing facilities
before a product can be marketed in the United States. The FDA will review
the manufacturing procedures and inspect the facilities and equipment for
compliance with applicable rules and regulations. Any material change by the
Company in the manufacturing process, equipment or location would
necessitate additional review and approval.
Whether or not FDA approval has been obtained, approval of a
pharmaceutical product by comparable governmental authorities in foreign
countries must be obtained prior to the commencement of clinical trials and
subsequent marketing of such product in such countries. The approval
procedure varies from country to country, and the time required may be
longer or shorter than that for FDA approval. Although there are some
procedures for unified filing for certain European countries, in general,
each country has its own procedures and requirements.
In addition to regulations enforced by the FDA, the Company also is
subject to regulation under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the
Toxic Substances Control Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and
other present and potential future federal, state or local regulations. The
Company's product development and research involves the controlled use of
hazardous materials and chemicals. Although the Company believes that its
safety procedures for handling and disposing of such materials comply with
the standards prescribed by state and federal regulations, the risk of
accidental contamination or injury from these materials cannot be completely
eliminated. In the event of such an accident, the Company could be held
liable for any damages that result and any such liability could exceed the
resources of the Company.
Employees
At February 20, 2004, the Company had 20 full-time employees, of whom
three were in marketing, sales, distribution and customer support, five in
manufacturing, eight in research and development, and four in executive,
finance and administrative functions. The Company has no collective
bargaining agreement with its employees, and believes that its employee
relations are good.
Item 2. Properties
The Company's executive administrative offices are located in Buena in
a 25,000 square foot facility built in 1995. This facility is also used for
production, product development, marketing and warehousing for the Company's
cosmetic, dermatologic and personal care products. On December 18, 2003, the
Company sold a vacant facility, also located in Buena, New Jersey, which was
used for warehousing and distribution of veterinary pharmaceuticals prior to
the sale of the Companion Pet Products business. The Company's former
corporate office building in Buena, New Jersey was sold in the first quarter
of 2002.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Gallo Matter
As previously reported by the Company in its historical filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including without limitation
its Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1999, for most of 1997 and
1998 the Company was subject to intensive government regulatory scrutiny by
the U.S. Departments of Justice, Treasury and Agriculture. In June 1997, the
Company was advised by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
("APHIS") of the United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") that the
Company had shipped quantities of some of its poultry vaccine products
without complying with certain regulatory and record keeping requirements.
The USDA subsequently issued an order that the Company stop shipment of
certain of its products. Shortly thereafter, in July 1997, the Company was
advised that the USDA's Office of Inspector General had commenced an
investigation into possible violations of the Virus Serum Toxin Act of 1914
and alleged false statements made to APHIS. In April 1998, the SEC advised
the Company that it was conducting an informal inquiry and requested
information and documents from the Company, which the Company voluntarily
provided to the SEC.
Based upon these events, the Board of Directors caused an immediate
and thorough investigation of the facts and circumstances of the alleged
violations to be undertaken by independent counsel. The Company continued to
refine and strengthen its regulatory programs with the adoption of a series
of compliance and enforcement policies, the addition of new managers of
Production and Quality Control and a new Senior Vice President and General
Counsel. At the instruction of the Board of Directors, the Company's General
Counsel established and oversaw a comprehensive employee training program,
designated in writing a Regulatory Compliance Officer, and established a
fraud detection program, as well as an employee "hotline." The Company
continued to cooperate with the USDA and SEC in all aspects of their
investigation and regulatory activities. On March 13, 2002, the Company
reached a settlement with the staff of the SEC to resolve matters arising
with respect to the investigation of the Company. Under the settlement, the
Company neither admitted nor denied that the Company violated the financial
reporting and record-keeping requirements of Section 13 of the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the three years ended December 31,
1997. Further, the Company agreed to the entry of an order to cease and
desist from any such violation in the future. No monetary penalty was
assessed.
5
As a result of its internal investigation, in November 1997, the
Company terminated the employment of John P. Gallo as President and Chief
Operating Officer for willful misconduct. On April 21, 1998, the Company
instituted a lawsuit against Mr. Gallo in the New Jersey Superior Court. The
lawsuit alleged willful misconduct and malfeasance in office, as well as
embezzlement and related claims (referred to as "the IGI Action"). On April
28, 1998, Mr. Gallo instituted a separate action against the Company and two
of its Directors, Edward Hager, M.D. and Constantine Hampers, M.D., alleging
that he had been wrongfully terminated from employment and further alleging
wrongdoings by the two Directors (referred to as the "Gallo Action"). The
Court subsequently ordered the consolidation of the IGI Action and the Gallo
Action (collectively referred to as the "Consolidated Action").
In response to these allegations, the Company instituted an
investigation of the two Directors by an independent committee ("Independent
Committee") of the Board assisted by the Company's General Counsel. The
investigation included a series of interviews of the Directors, both of whom
cooperated with the Company, and a review of certain records and documents.
The Company also requested an interview with Mr. Gallo who, through his
counsel, declined to cooperate. In September 1998, the Independent Committee
reported to the Board that it had found no credible evidence to support Mr.
Gallo's claims and allegations and recommended no further action. The Board
adopted the recommendation.
The Company denied all allegations plead in the Gallo Action and
asserted all claims in the Gallo Action to be without merit. The Company did
not reserve any amount relating to such claims. The Company tendered the
claim to its insurance carriers, but was denied insurance coverage for both
defense and indemnity of the Gallo Action.
In July 1998, the Company sought to depose Mr. Gallo in connection
with the Consolidated Action. Through his counsel, Mr. Gallo asserted his
Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination and advised that he
would not participate in the discovery process until such time as a federal
grand jury investigation, in which he was a target, was concluded. In
January 1999, at the suggestion of the Court, the Company and Mr. Gallo
agreed to a voluntary dismissal without prejudice of the Consolidated
Action, with the understanding that the statute of limitations was tolled
for all parties and all claims, and that the Company and Mr. Gallo were free
to reinstate their suits against each other at a later date, with each party
reserving all of their rights and remedies against the other.
As of the date hereof, neither the Company nor Mr. Gallo have filed
suit against each other in the Superior Court of New Jersey or any other
court of competent jurisdiction to reinstitute the claims, in whole or part,
previously at issue in the Consolidated Action, and pursuant to the previous
order of dismissal entered in the Consolidated Action, the statute of
limitation on all claims and defenses continues to be tolled as to both
parties. However, the Company did receive a letter dated November 21, 2003
from Mr. Gallo's attorneys seeking to reach a settlement of the claims
asserted against IGI in the Gallo Action without further resort to the
courts. The letter provides a general description of Mr. Gallo's claims and
a calculation of damages allegedly sustained by Mr. Gallo relative thereto.
The letter states that Mr. Gallo's damages are calculated to be in the range
of $3,400,000 to $5,100,000. The Company denies liability for the claims and
damages alleged in the letter from Mr. Gallo's counsel dated November 21,
2003, and as such, the Company did not make any formal response thereto. Mr.
Gallo has contacted the Company's Chief Executive Officer & Chairman, Frank
Gerardi, in a continued effort to initiate settlement discussions. As of the
present date, the Company continues to deny any merit and/or liability for
the claims alleged by Mr. Gallo and has not engaged in any formal settlement
discussions with either Mr. Gallo or his attorneys.
On December 8, 2003, Mr. Gallo filed suit against Novavax, Inc. in the
Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Atlantic County, docket no. ATL-
L-3388-03, asserting claims under seven counts for damages allegedly
sustained as a result of the cancellation of certain Novavax stock options
held by Mr. Gallo due to his termination from IGI in November 1997 for
willful misconduct (referred to as the "Novavax Action").
On March 5, 2004, Novavax filed an Answer denying the allegations
asserted by Mr. Gallo in his First Amended Complaint. In addition, while
denying any liability under the First Amended Complaint, Novavax also filed
a Third Party Complaint in the Novavax Action against the Company for
contribution and indemnification, alleging that if liability for Mr. Gallo's
claims is found, the Company has primary liability for any and all such
damages sustained.
IGI has tendered to its insurers the Third Party Complaint for defense
and indemnification and is waiting to receive a response thereto. The
Company will proceed with its defense of the Third Party Complaint in the
Novavax Action in accordance with the rules of Court pursuant to advice of
counsel.
Mr. Gallo has not specified the amount of damages sought to be
recovered in the Novavax Action, and hence, the amount in controversy in the
Novavax Action is currently unknown.
Other Matters
On April 6, 2000, officials of the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection inspected the Company's storage site in Buena, New
Jersey and issued Notices of Violation relating to the storage of waste
materials in a number of trailers at the site. The Company established a
disposal and cleanup schedule and completed the removal of materials from
the site. The Company continues to discuss with the authorities a resolution
of any potential assessment under the NOV's and has accrued the estimated
penalties related to such NOV's.
6
On March 2, 2001, the Company discovered the presence of environmental
contamination resulting from an unknown heating oil leak at its Companion
Pet Products manufacturing site. The Company immediately notified the New
Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and the local authorities, and
hired a certified environmental contractor to assess the exposure and
required clean up. Based on the initial information from the contractor, the
Company originally estimated the cost for the cleanup and remediation to be
$310,000. In September 2001, the contractor updated the estimated total cost
for the cleanup and remediation to be $550,000. A further update was
performed in December 2002 and the final estimated cost was increased to
$620,000, of which $102,000 remains accrued as of December 31, 2003. The
remediation was completed by September 30, 2003. There will be periodic
testing and removal performed, which is projected to span over the next five
years. The estimated cost of the monitoring is included in the accrual.

Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder
Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Company has never paid cash dividends on its Common Stock. (See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources.")
The principal market for the Company's Common Stock ($.01 par value)
(the "Common Stock") is the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") (symbol: "IG").
On June 12, 2002, AMEX notified the Company that it had accepted the
Company's plan of compliance and had granted the Company an extension of
time to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by December
31, 2002. In February 2003, the Company contacted AMEX after release of the
Company's 2002 year-end results. On April 14, 2003, the Company received
formal notification from AMEX that the Company was deemed to be in
compliance with all AMEX requirements for continued listing on AMEX. This
determination is subject to the Company's favorable progress in satisfying
the AMEX guidelines for continued listing and to AMEX's routine periodic
reviews of the Company's SEC filings. Based on the Company's 2003 year-end
results, the Company is not in compliance with the AMEX requirement for
reporting income from continuing operations and net income for the year
ended December 31, 2003. As of the date of the filing of the Form 10-K, the
Company has not been contacted by AMEX concerning the Company's non-
compliance with the AMEX requirements. While as of this date, the Company
has not received any notification of non-compliance from AMEX, the Company
has no knowledge of nor can it predict whether AMEX shall at any time
hereafter issue formal notification to the Company of its non-compliance
with the requirements for continued listing on AMEX, which could result in
the Company's delisting from AMEX or otherwise adversely affect the Company.
The following table shows the range of high and low sale prices on the
AMEX for the periods indicated:

Overview
The past year has proved to be a pivotal time for the Company. In the
second quarter of 2003, the Company saw a change in management with full
support of the Board of Directors. In June, Frank Gerardi was appointed as
Chairman, which was followed shortly by his appointment by the Board to
serve as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. After a transition period
into the Office of Chairman, a course was set for the Company to achieve
three primary goals - (1) reduction in general and administrative overhead,
(2) expansion in research and development, and (3) lay the foundation for
revenue growth.
The course set in motion during the second half of 2003 resulted in
the reduction of general and administrative expenses and the identification
of opportunities to capitalize on IGI's proprietary Novasome(R) delivery
technology. As a additional cost saving measure,the Company authorized a
reduction in the size of its Board of Directors to four members. In
furtherance of this purpose, Dr. Constantine Hampers and Earl Lewis,
respectively, voluntarily tendered their resignations from the Board
effective January 4, 2004, after many years of dedicated and valuable
service to IGI.
9
In the last half of the year, the Company sold non-performing assets
that grossed over $400,000 of proceeds to the Company and also provided the
funds to pay down the Company's remaining long term debt. At year-end the
Company was debt free with over $1,600,000 in cash and marketable
securities.
On July 23, 2003, Dr. Michael F. Holick, professor of Medicine,
Dermatology, Physiology and Biophysics, Boston University School of
Medicine, was appointed to head IGI's newly formed Scientific Advisory
Board. Shortly thereafter, on September 26, 2003, Dr. Holick formally joined
the ranks of IGI by entering into an employment agreement with the Company
to serve as its Vice President of Research and Development and Chief
Scientific Officer for a term of three years. In late December 2003, IGI
acquired the exclusive license rights to certain intellectual property
invented by Dr. Holick, among which includes U.S. and foreign patents for
the clinical uses of PTH (1-34) for the treatment of psoriasis and other
skin disorders and the clinical uses of PTH (7-34) for the treatment of
alopecia. IGI is hopeful that the acquired license rights will enhance its
advances in the dermatologic market, as well as generating a stream of
sublicensing revenues, but there is no guarantee that this will occur.
IGI is currently negotiating a sublicense agreement with a third party
entity for the PTH (1-34) technology under which the third party will be
obligated at its sole cost and expense to develop and bring the PTH (1-34)
technology to market as timely and efficiently as possible, which includes
its sole responsibility for the cost of preclinical and clinical
development, research and development, manufacturing, laboratory and
clinical testing and trials and marketing of products. In addition, the
sublicense agreement will call for various payments to IGI throughout the
term. It is currently anticipated that IGI will be paid a lump sum
sublicense fee at the time of signing, from which amount IGI shall pay the
sum of $236,000 to Dr. Holick in accordance with the terms of his License
Agreement with the Company. Such amount will be expensed when paid, because
the technologies are in a preliminary development stage and do not have any
readily determinable alternative future use. Further, over the course of the
sublicense, milestone payments will be made to IGI as certain stages of
development are reached, as well as royalty payments to IGI on sales of all
sublicensed products that go to market. Certain subsequent royalty payments
received by the Company under a sublicense agreement will be shared with Dr.
Holick after the Company has recovered any payments previously made to Dr.
Holick under the License Agreement and an amount equal to the value of the
options received by Dr. Holick under the License Agreement. The Company is
also negotiating with the same third party for the potential sublicensing of
the PTH (7-34) technology under a similar term structure.
In 2003, product and developmental expenses increased. Through such
product development efforts, the Company gained two new customers for
Novasome(R) encapsulated products. Our existing customers are beginning to
incorporate Novasomes(R) into additional product lines. Genesis
Pharmaceutical, Inc., a division of Pierre-Fabre, has engaged the Company in
dialogue for the development of new products utilizing the patented
Novasome(R) delivery system. Chattem, Inc., makers of Gold Bond and Icy Hot,
is launching a new Novasome(R) based product with an advertising campaign
that will be sold in mass markets and other outlets.
Because of declining revenues with Estee Lauder, the Company is
changing the way it will do business with them starting July 1, 2004. It is
anticipated that Estee Lauder will be purchasing a Novasome(R) mixing
machine from the Company and will pay the Company a royalty per kilo on all
Novasome(R) products manufactured by Estee Lauder in-house. In 2003, Estee
Lauder accounted for $1,812,000, or 51%, of total revenues. Of this amount,
$767,000 was received by the Company for its contract manufacturing services
for Estee Lauder non-Novasome(R) products. The Company's contract
manufacturing of Estee Lauder non-Novasome(R) products is scheduled to
terminate on June 30, 2004, without any future royalties or other payments
to be received by the Company on any non-Novasome(R) products manufactured
by Estee Lauder. In addition, during the six month period from January
through June 2004, the Company shall provide Estee Lauder's contract
manufacturing services at a reduced price from $3.03 to $2.00 per kilo. It
is anticipated that the Company's revenue will decrease in the second half
of 2004, and possibly into 2005, due to the reduction in revenues from Estee
Lauder. The Company is hopeful that this new business arrangement will allow
Estee Lauder to introduce IGI's Novasome(R) technology into additional
products. In consideration of the foregoing, Estee Lauder agreed to release
the Company from its contractual exclusivity restrictions, which will now
enable the Company to sell its products in department and specialty stores.
Although it is the Company's belief that this will increase business and
revenue in the future, there is no guarantee that it will occur.
IGI has instituted a program to realize the value of certain assets.
IGI is investigating opportunities to either license or sell such assets, in
order to generate financial resources to allow the Company to pursue new
avenues of growth without the need for additional financing or dilution. The
path chosen by IGI is to identify new opportunities in dermatologics,
cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and nutrients for topical delivery. The Company
will also seek to expand the use of its Novasome(R) encapsulation technology
for flavors and fragrances, as well as fuel additives. The Company has
recently entered into a Joint Development Agreement with Pure Energy
Corporation ("PEC"), under which each party's financial commitment is
limited to an initial sum of $10,000. The goal of the Joint Development
Agreement is to develop a new class of cleaner burning alternative fuel
formulations based on PEC's proprietary fuel formulations and IGI's
microencapsulation technology or a new class of high performance fuel
additives based on PEC's proprietary fuel additives and IGI's
microencapsulation technology. Stephen J. Morris, a Director and a major
shareholder of the Company, is the sole shareholder of PEC and a member of
the PEC Board of Directors.
In February 2004, the Company signed a license agreement with
Universal Chemical Technologies, Inc. ("UCT") to utilize their patented
technology for an electroless nickel boride metal finishing process. This
will be a new venture for the Company and will require an initial capital
expenditures of approximately $500,000 in order to set up the operations and
commits the Company to purchase a minimum of $25,000 of raw materials from
UCT in the first year of the license, $75,000 during the second year and
$150,000 during the third and subsequent years. The Company will also be
required to hire at least one new employee to oversee the facility
operations at a estimated cost of $60,000 per year. The Company has an
exclusive license within a 150 mile radius of its facility for commercial
and military applications. Frank Gerardi, the Company's Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, as well as a major IGI shareholder, has personally
invested $250,000 in UCT, which represents less than a 1% ownership interest
by Mr. Gerardi in UCT. The Company believes there is the possibility of
revenue and profit growth using this application, but there is no guarantee
that it will materialize.
10
In March 2004, the Company was notified by J&J that they had made an
error in the calculation of the royalty due to the Company for 2003. The
royalty is based on the sale of products that J&J makes using the Company's
Novasome(R) technology. J&J incorrectly included sales during the first
three quarters of 2003 which were not made with the Novasome(R) technology.
The 2003 quarterly results have been restated for the impact of the
adjustment.
In April 2004, the Company's Vice President of Business Development
will be leaving the Company. The Company does not plan on filling this
position or hiring an internal sales force. Subsequent to April 2004, the
Company plans to use independent brokers or agents to seek out new potential
customers solely on commission payment basis.
Results of Operations
2003 Compared to 2002
The Company had a net loss of $322,000 or $(.03) per share, in 2003
compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $8,647,000, or
$.76 per share, in 2002. The majority of the change from 2002 to 2003 is the
result of the gain on the sale of the Companion Pet Products division in
2002.
Total revenues for 2003 were $3,557,000, which represented a decrease
of $807,000, or 18%, from revenues of $4,364,000 in 2002. The decreased
revenues were due mainly to lower product sales. Licensing and royalty
income of $656,000 in 2003 decreased by $195,000 compared to 2002, primarily
as a result of decreased licensing revenues from Johnson & Johnson offset by
royalty revenue from Estee Lauder. Licensing revenues from Johnson & Johnson
are based on their sales. A significant portion of the Company's product
sales are attributable to a single customer. In addition, licensing and
royalty income is primarily generated from arrangements with two customers.
Product sales of $2,901,000 in 2003 decreased $612,000, or 17%,
compared to 2002 due mainly to lower product sales to Estee Lauder, the
Company's major customer, but were partially offset by higher sales to
Genesis, Vetoquinol USA and new customers. Vetoquinol became a new customer
for the Company in 2002 as a result of the sale of the Companion Pet
Products division. The Company continues to manufacture several of the pet
care shampoos and lotions for Vetoquinol.
Cost of sales decreased by $33,000, or 2%, in 2003 as compared to
2002. As a percentage of product sales, cost of sales increased from 39% in
2002 to 46% in 2003. The decrease in gross profit from 61% in 2002 to 54% in
2003 was the result of the change in mix to lower gross profit products sold
and underabsorbed fixed costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $64,000, or
3%, from $2,358,000 in 2002 to $2,422,000 in 2003. These expenses were 54%
of revenues for 2002 compared to 68% in 2003. The increase is primarily due
to a $202,000 charge in the second quarter of 2003 for the cost of benefits
provided by the Company under a severance package to one of the Company's
executives, offset by a decline in salary expense due to staff reductions
after the sale of the Companion Pet Products division.
Product development and research expenses increased by $213,000 in
2003, or 39%, compared to 2002. The increase is a result of additional
projects that are being worked on for existing and potential new customers
and the $50,000 payment made to Dr. Holick related to the licensing of the
PTH and Glycoside Technologies.
Interest income (expense), net went from interest expense, net of
$283,000 in 2002 to interest income, net of $7,000 in 2003. The change is
due to lower interest rates and the pay down of the Company's debt on May
31, 2002 using the proceeds from the sale of the Companion Pet Products
division.
The loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $2,654,000 in 2002
related to the write off of the deferred financing costs and the unamortized
debt discount under the Subordinated Debt Agreement in connection with the
repayment of the Senior Debt and the Subordinated Debt.
The tax benefit of $208,000 in 2003 was a result of the sale of a
portion of the Company's state operating loss carryforwards in exchange for
proceeds of $224,000, offset by the current year's state tax expense of
$16,000. Tax expense in 2002 was a result of a New Jersey change in the tax
law in July 2002 that was retroactive to January 1, 2002. The change
suspended the use of net operating losses for a two year period. Therefore,
the gain from the sale of the Companion Pet Products division could not be
offset against prior net operating losses, resulting in tax expense for
2002. The effect of this change was required to be reflected as a component
of continuing operations. The Company sold some of its state operating loss
carryforwards in exchange for proceeds of $249,000 in 2002. The 2002
proceeds partially offset the effect of the tax law change.
The $435,000 of income from discontinued operations in 2003 consisted
of a $169,000 insurance settlement, net of legal costs, received for damages
incurred by the Company as a result of the heating oil leak at the Company's
Companion Pet Products site and a $288,000 gain on the sale of the Company's
Companion Pet Products facility offset by $15,000 of regulatory expenses and
$7,000 of other expenses. In 2002, discontinued operations consisted of the
gain on the sale of the Companion Pet Products division and the loss from
operations of that division.
11
2002 Compared to 2001
The Company had net income attributable to common stockholders of
$8,647,000, or $.76 per share, in 2002 compared to a net loss attributable
to common stockholders of $1,693,000, or $(.15) per share, in 2001. The
majority of the change from 2002 to 2001 was the result of the gain on the
sale of the Companion Pet Products division net of the loss from the early
extinguishment of debt.
Total revenues for 2002 were $4,364,000, which represented an increase
of $70,000, or 2%, from revenues of $4,294,000 in 2001. The increased
revenues were due to product sales to a new customer, Vetoquinol USA,
offset by lower licensing revenues. Licensing and royalty income of $851,000
in 2002 decreased by $215,000 compared to 2001, primarily as a result of
decreased licensing revenues from Johnson & Johnson. Licensing revenues from
Johnson & Johnson are based on their sales. A significant portion of the
Company's product sales are attributable to a single customer. In addition,
licensing and royalty income is primarily generated from arrangements with
two customers.
Product sales of $3,513,000 in 2002 increased $285,000, or 9%,
compared to 2001 as a result of sales of our pet care products to
Vetoquinol USA. Vetoquinol became a new customer for the Company as a
result of the sale of the Companion Pet Products division. The Company
continues to manufacture several of the pet care shampoos and lotions for
Vetoquinol.
Cost of sales increased by $266,000, or 24%, in 2002 as compared to
2001. As a percentage of product sales, cost of sales increased from 34% in
2001 to 39% in 2002. The decrease in gross profit from 66% in 2001 to 61% in
2002 was the result of fixed costs being allocated solely to the Consumer
Products division since the sale of the Companion Pet Products division and
the change in the mix of the products sold.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $435,000, or
16%, from $2,793,000 in 2001 to $2,358,000 in 2002. These expenses were 65%
of revenues for 2001 compared to 54% in 2002. Overall, expenses decreased
due to staff reductions after the sale of the Companion Pet Products
division, reductions in accounting fees and bank charges and from the
forgiveness of penalties from a New Jersey Sales Tax Assessment, which was
waived due to an amnesty program.
Product development and research expenses increased by $13,000 in
2002, or 2%, compared to 2001. The increase was principally for an
additional research staff to work on new and existing projects.
Net interest expense decreased $539,000, or 66%, from $822,000 in 2001
to $283,000 in 2002. The decrease was a result of the Senior Debt and
Subordinated Debt Agreements being paid off with proceeds from the sale of
the Companion Pet Products division.
The loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $2,654,000 in 2002
related to the write off of the deferred financing costs and the unamortized
debt discount under the Subordinated Debt Agreement in connection with the
repayment of the Senior Debt and the Subordinated Debt.
Tax expense in 2002 was a result of a New Jersey change in the tax law
in July 2002 that was retroactive to January 1, 2002. The change suspended
the use of net operating losses for a two year period. Therefore, the gain
from the sale of the Companion Pet Products division could not be offset
against prior net operating losses, resulting in tax expense for 2002. The
effect of this change was required to be reflected as a component of
continuing operations. The Company sold some of its state operating loss
carryforwards in exchange for proceeds of $249,000 and $289,000 in 2002 and
2001, respectively. The 2002 proceeds partially offset the effect of the tax
law change.
Discontinued operations for 2002 consisted of the gain on the sale of
the Companion Pet Products division and the loss from operations of that
division. In 2001, discontinued operations consisted of the remaining gain
from the sale of the Vineland division and the loss from operations from the
Companion Pet Products division.

The Company's operating activities used $468,000 of cash during 2003,
compared to $724,000 used in 2002. In addition to the loss from operations
offset by the gain on the sale of the Companion Pet Products facility,
payments for environmental remediation costs were the other major use of
cash in 2003. In 2002, proceeds from the sale of the Companion Pet Products
division were utilized to pay down accounts payable and accrued expenses.
The Company used $452,000 of cash in 2003 for investing activities
compared to $15,925,000 provided in 2002. The majority of the 2003 investing
activities were for the purchase of marketable securities, computers, and
machinery and equipment, offset by proceeds from the sale of the Companion
Pet Products facility. In 2002, the activity primarily was cash generated
from the sale of the Companion Pet Products division and a former corporate
office building.
The Company's financing activities utilized $258,000 of cash in 2003
compared to $13,212,000 used in 2002. The cash utilized in 2003 was
primarily for the purchase of Company stock as part of a stock buy-back
program, which was authorized in December 2002, and the pay off of the EDA
loan upon the sale of the Companion Pet Products facility. In 2002, cash was
utilized to payoff the Fleet Capital Corporation and American Capital
Strategies debt, using the proceeds from the sale of the Companion Pet
Products division, and the purchase of treasury shares.
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from
operations, cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. Management
believes that existing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and
cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's
foreseeable cash needs for at least the next year. In addition, two
shareholders of the Company have agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000
each, if necessary, to fund the Company's deficit through March 31, 2005.
There may be acquisition and other growth opportunities, however, that
require additional external financing. Management may, from time to time,
seek to obtain additional funds from the public or private issuances of
equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that such additional
financings will be available or available on terms acceptable to the Company.

The total committed contracts that will affect cash over the next five
years and beyond are as follows:

Based upon the License Agreement that the Company entered into with
Dr. Holick on December 24, 2003, the Company paid him a non-refundable
advance fee of $50,000 and certain development and oversight expenses. Upon
the execution of a sublicense agreement, the Company will pay Dr. Holick
$236,000. In addition, the Company is obligated to issue 300,000 options to
Dr. Holick, provided that he has not terminated the License Agreement
pursuant to the 180 day provision within the License Agreement. Certain
subsequent royalty payments received by the Company under a sublicense
agreement will be shared with Dr. Holick after the Company has recovered any
payments previously made to Dr. Holick under the License Agreement and an
amount equal to the value of the options received by Dr. Holick under his
License Agreement. The $50,000 payment was expensed because the PTH and
Glycoside Technologies are in a preliminary development phase and do not
have any readily determinable alternative future use. The $236,000 cash
payment called for by the License Agreement will be expensed upon the
signing of a sublicense agreement. The other consideration called for under
the License Agreement (i.e., amounts advanced for the prosecution and
oversight of any intellectual property rights related to the licensed
technologies and the value ascribed to the stock options) will be expensed
once the 180-day provision is rendered inoperative.
In February 2004, the Company signed a license agreement with UCT to
utilize their patented technology for an electroless nickel boride metal
finishing process. This will be a new venture for the Company and will
require an initial capital expenditures of approximately $500,000 in order
to set up the operations and commits the Company to purchase a minimum of
$25,000 of raw materials from UCT in the first year of the license, $75,000
during the second year and $150,000 during the third and subsequent years.
The Company has an option, which is exercisable in 2005, to extend its
exclusive license for the use of the Technologies in the IGI Field for an
additional ten-year term in exchange for a $1,000,000 cash payment.
Factors Which May Affect Future Results
The industry segments in which the Company competes are subject to
intense competitive pressures. The following sets forth some of the risks
which the Company faces.
Intense Competition in Consumer Products Business
- -------------------------------------------------
The Company's Consumer Products business competes with large, well-
financed cosmetics and consumer products companies with development and
marketing groups that are experienced in the industry and possess far
greater resources than those available to the Company. There is no assurance
that the Company's consumer products can compete successfully against its
competitors or that it can develop and market new products that will be
favorably received in the marketplace. In addition, certain of the Company's
customers that use the Company's Novasome(R) lipid vesicles in their
products may decide to reduce their purchases from the Company or shift
their business to other suppliers.
Effect of Rapidly Changing Technologies
- ---------------------------------------
The Company expects to sublicense its technologies to third parties,
which would manufacture and market products incorporating the technologies.
However, if its competitors develop new and improved technologies that are
superior to the Company's technologies, its technologies could be less
acceptable in the marketplace and therefore the Company's planned technology
sublicensing could be materially adversely affected.
Revision of Current Contract with Estee Lauder
- ----------------------------------------------
Currently, the Company manufactures Novasome(R) products and contract
manufacturing products for Estee Lauder using the raw materials supplied by
Estee Lauder. The Company is currently renegotiating its agreement with
Estee Lauder. The Company anticipates that the revised agreement will end
all contract manufacturing. The Company also anticipates that it will sell a
Novasome(R) mixing machine to Estee Lauder who will produce Novasome(R)
products in house and will pay the Company a royalty on the volume produced.
In addition, Estee Lauder will remove the exclusivity clause which will
allow the Company to sell its products in department and specialty stores.
Although it is the Company's belief that this will increase business and
revenue in the future, there is no guarantee that it will occur.
13
Licensing Agreement with Universal Chemical Technologies, Inc.
- --------------------------------------------------------------
In February 2004, the Company signed a license agreement with UCT to
utilize their patented technology for an electroless nickel boride metal
finishing process. This will be a new venture for the Company and will
require significant capital expenditures in the Company's existing
manufacturing facility to set up the operations. The Company is also
obligated to purchase a minimum level of raw materials from UCT during the
license term. The Company has an exclusive license within a 150 mile radius
of its facility for commercial and military applications. The Company
believes there is the possibility of major revenue and profit growth using
this application, but there is no guarantee that it will materialize.
American Stock Exchange (AMEX) Continuing Listing Standards
- -----------------------------------------------------------
On March 28, 2002, the Company was notified by AMEX that it was below
certain of the Exchange's continuing listing standards. Specifically, the
Company was required to reflect income from continuing operations and net
income for 2002 and a minimum of $4,000,000 in stockholders' equity by
December 31, 2002 in order to remain listed.
On April 25, 2002, the Company submitted a plan of compliance to AMEX.
On June 12, 2002, AMEX notified the Company that it had accepted the
Company's plan of compliance and had granted the Company an extension of
time to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by December
31, 2002. The Company was subject to periodic review by the AMEX staff
during the extension period. Based on the Company's reported results for
2002, the Company was not in compliance with the AMEX listing standards for
income from continuing operations. On April 14, 2003, the Company received
formal notification from AMEX that the Company was deemed to be in
compliance with all AMEX requirements for continued listing on AMEX. This
determination is subject to the Company's favorable progress in satisfying
the AMEX guidelines for continued listing and to AMEX's routine periodic
reviews of the Company's SEC filings. Based on the Company's 2003 year-end
results, the Company is not in compliance with the AMEX requirement for
reporting income from continuing operations and net income for the year
ended December 31, 2003. As of the date of the filing of the Form 10-K, the
Company has not been contacted by AMEX concerning the Company's non-
compliance with the AMEX requirements. While as of this date, the Company
has not received any notification of non-compliance from AMEX, the Company
has no knowledge of nor can it predict whether AMEX shall at any time
hereafter issue formal notification to the Company of its non-compliance
with the requirements for continued listing on AMEX, which could result in
the Company's delisting from AMEX or otherwise adversely affect the Company.
Recent Pronouncements
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 145,
"Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement
No. 13 and Technical Corrections," which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after May 15, 2002 for provisions related to SFAS No. 4, effective
for all transactions occurring after May 15, 2002 for provisions related to
SFAS No. 13 and effective for all financial statements issued on or after
May 15, 2002 for all other provisions of this Statement. The Company's loss
from early extinguishment of debt realized in the second quarter of 2002 has
been presented within continuing operations, rather than presented as an
extraordinary item, in accordance with SFAS No. 145.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This Statement addresses the
financial accounting and reporting of expenses related to restructurings
initiated after 2002, and applies to costs associated with an exit activity
(including a restructuring) or with a disposal of long-lived assets. Those
activities can include eliminating or reducing product lines, terminating
employees and contracts, and relocating plant facilities or personnel. Under
SFAS No. 146, a company will record a liability for a cost associated with
an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred and can be
measured at fair value. The provisions of this Statement are effective
prospectively for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31,
2002, and did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of
transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the
disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in
both annual and interim financial statements. Certain of the disclosure
modifications are required for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002,
and are presented herein.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement
133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which amends and
clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and
for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 149 is effective for
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging
relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149,
effective July 1, 2003, did not have an impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial position.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," which
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.
SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified
after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first
interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company's adoption of the
initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of SFAS No. 150,
effective June 1, 2003, did not have an impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial position.

Critical Accounting Policies
In December 2001, the SEC issued disclosure guidance for "critical
accounting policies." The SEC defines "critical accounting policies" as
those that require application of management's most difficult, subjective or
complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the
effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent
periods.
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Not all of these significant
accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or
complex judgements or estimates. However, the following policies could be
deemed to be critical within the SEC definition.
Environmental Remediation Liability
- -----------------------------------
On March 2, 2001, the Company became aware of environmental
contamination resulting from an unknown heating oil leak at its Companion
Pet Products manufacturing facility. The Company immediately notified the
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and the local authorities,
and hired a contractor to assess the exposure and required clean up. Based
on the initial information from the contractor, the Company originally
estimated the cost for the cleanup and remediation to be $310,000. In
September 2001, the contractor updated the estimated total cost for the
cleanup and remediation to be $550,000. In December 2002, a further update
was performed and the final estimated costs were increased to $620,000, of
which $102,000 remains accrued as of December 31, 2003. Based on information
provided to the Company from its environmental consultant and what is known
to date, the Company believes the reserve is sufficient for the future clean
up and remediation of the environmental contamination. There is a
possibility, however, that the future cleanup and remediation costs may
exceed the Company's estimates.
Long-Lived Assets
- -----------------
The Company's long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the
asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and
used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to
future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.
Based on available information, management believes that the carrying value
of its long-lived assets are currently recoverable from future net
undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from such assets. There is
a possibility, however, that changes could occur in the future (e.g., the
loss of a significant customer) which would negatively impact the Company's
ability to recover the carrying amount of its long-lived assets. The
occurrence of such an event might result in the Company having to record an
impairment charge.
Deferred Tax Valuation Allowance
- --------------------------------
Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences in the bases of
assets and liabilities and from net operating losses and credit
carryforwards. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits
to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in the Company's
statement of operations become deductible expenses under applicable income
tax laws or loss or credit carryforwards are utilized. Accordingly,
realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income
against which these deductions, losses and credits can be utilized. In
assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized. Management considers historical operating
losses, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future
taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a
result, the Company concluded that it was more likely than not that it will
be unable to realize the gross deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future
and established a valuation reserve for all such deferred tax assets.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact the financial
position, results of operations, or cash flow of the Company due to adverse
changes in market prices and interest rates. The Company is exposed to
market risk because of changes in interest rates and changes in the fair
market value of its marketable securities portfolio.
The Company does not use derivative instruments in its marketable
securities portfolio. The Company classifies its investments in its
marketable securities portfolio as available-for-sale and records them at
fair value. The securities unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded
from income and are recorded directly to stockholders' equity in accumulated
other comprehensive income. Changes in interest rates are not expected to
have an adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto listed in the
accompanying index to financial statements (Item 15) are filed as part of
this Annual Report and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9a. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of certain members of
the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, the Company completed an evaluation of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based on this evaluation, the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that
the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the
period covered by this report with respect to timely communicating to them
and other members of management responsible for preparing periodic reports
all material information required to be disclosed in this report as it
relates to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
15
The Company's management does not expect that its disclosure controls
and procedures or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent
all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the
objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control
system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the
benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of
the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be
faulty, and breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
person or by collusion of two or more people. The design of any system of
controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood
of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed
in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over
time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Accordingly, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed
to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of its
disclosure control system are met and, as set forth above, the Company's
management has concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the
period, that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were
sufficiently effective to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives
of the disclosure control system were met.
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial
reporting during the Company's last fiscal quarter that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
IGI, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IGI, Inc.
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity
(deficit) for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
2003. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial
statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule for the
three years ended December 31, 2003. These consolidated financial statements
and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. 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
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IGI,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-
year period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our
opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in
relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections, relating to the classification
of losses from the extinguishment of debt in 2003.

IGI, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of the Business
IGI, Inc. ("IGI" or the "Company") is engaged in the production and
marketing of cosmetics and skin care products. During 2000, the Company sold
its Vineland division, which produced and marketed poultry vaccines and
related products. During 2002, the Company sold its Companion Pet Products
division, which manufactured and sold companion pet care products.
IGI's Consumer Products business is primarily focused on the continued
commercial use of the Novasome(R) microencapsulation technologies for skin
care applications. These efforts have been directed toward the development
of high quality skin care products marketed by the Company or through
collaborative arrangements with cosmetic and consumer products companies.
Estee Lauder, a significant customer, accounted for $1,812,000 or 51%
of 2003 revenues, $2,629,000 or 60% of 2002 revenues and $2,725,000 or 63%
of 2001 revenues. It is anticipated that Estee Lauder will be purchasing a
Novasome(R) mixing machine from the Company in 2004 and will pay the Company
a royalty per kilo on all Novasome(R) products manufactured by Estee Lauder
in-house. The Company's contract manufacturing of Estee Lauder non-
Novasome(R) products, which accounted for $767,000 of the above revenues in
2003, is scheduled to terminate on June 30, 2004, without any future
royalties or other payments to be received by the Company on any non-
Novasome(R) products manufactured by Estee Lauder. In addition, during the
six month period from January through June 2004, the Company will provide
Estee Lauder's contract manufacturing services at a reduced price of $2.00
per kilo, as compared to the prior rate of $3.03 per kilo. Johnson &
Johnson, a significant customer, accounted for $488,000 or 14% of 2003
revenues, $714,000 or 16% of 2002 revenues and $856,000 or 20% of 2001
revenues.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IGI,
Inc. and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of short-term investments which have
maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk are cash, cash equivalents and accounts
receivable. The Company limits credit risk associated with cash and cash
equivalents by placing its cash and cash equivalents with one high credit
quality financial institution. The Company records an allowance for doubtful
accounts, reducing its accounts receivable balance to an amount the Company
estimates is collectible from its customers.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, using the first-in,
first-out ("FIFO") method, or market.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided for under
the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives as follows:
Useful Lives
------------
Buildings and improvements 10 - 30 years
Machinery and equipment 3 - 10 years
Repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred
while major improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or
disposed, the cost and accumulated depreciation thereon are removed from the
accounts and any gains or losses are included in operating results.
Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets," the Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of the assets may not be recoverable. In performing such review for
recoverability, the Company compares expected future cash flows of assets to
the carrying value of the long-lived assets and related identifiable
intangibles. If the expected future cash flows (undiscounted) are less than
the carrying amount of such assets, the Company recognizes an impairment
loss for the difference between the carrying value of the assets and their
estimated fair value, with fair values being determined using projected
discounted cash flows at the lowest level of cash flows identifiable in
relation to the assets being reviewed.
25
Accounting for Environmental Costs
Accruals for environmental remediation are recorded when it is
probable a liability has been incurred and costs are reasonably estimable.
The estimated liabilities are recorded at undiscounted amounts.
Environmental insurance recoveries are included in the statement of
operations in the year in which the issue is resolved through settlement or
other appropriate legal process.
Income Taxes
The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method
of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method,
deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary
differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future
years to operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing
assets and liabilities. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date. A valuation allowance is recorded based on a determination of the
ultimate realizability of future deferred tax assets.
Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents,
marketable securities, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The
carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts
receivable and accounts payable approximates their fair value based on their
short duration.
Revenue Recognition
Sales, net of appropriate cash discounts, product returns and sales
reserves, are recorded upon shipment of products. Revenues earned under
research contracts or sublicensing and supply agreements are either
recognized when the related contract provisions are met, or, if under such
contracts or agreements the Company has continuing obligations, the revenue
is initially deferred and then recognized over the life of the agreement.
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation costs attributable to stock option and similar plans are
recognized based on the difference, if any, between the quoted market price
of the stock on the date of grant over the amount the employee is required
to pay to acquire the stock (the intrinsic value method). No stock-based
employee compensation cost is reflected in net income (loss) for options
that have been granted, as all options granted under the plans had an
exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on
the date of grant. Since the Company uses the intrinsic value method, it
makes pro forma disclosures of net income (loss) and net income (loss) per
share as if the fair-value based method of accounting had been applied.
If compensation cost for all grants under the Company's stock option
plans had been determined based on the fair value at the grant date
consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," the Company's net income (loss) attributable to common
stockholders and net income (loss) per share would have changed to the pro
forma amounts indicated below:
2003 2002 2001
---- ---- ----
(in thousands, except per share information)
Net income (loss) attributable to common
stockholders - as reported $(322) $8,647 $(1,693)

Basic and diluted $(.03) $ .76 $ (.15)
===== ====== =======
Income (loss) per share - pro forma
Basic and diluted $(.04) $ .71 $ (.20)
===== ====== =======
26
The pro forma information has been determined as if the Company had
accounted for its employee and director stock options under the fair value
method. The fair value for these options was estimated at the grant date
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions
for 2003, 2002 and 2001:
Assumptions 2003 2002 2001
----------- ---- ---- ----
Dividend yield 0% 0% 0%
Risk free interest rate 2.89% - 3.62% 3.53% - 4.97% 4.45% - 5.30%
Estimated volatility factor 176% 176% 217%
Expected life 7 years 7 years 7 years
Product Development and Research
The Company's research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed based on
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed
using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potential
dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential
dilutive common stock equivalents include shares issuable upon the exercise
of options and warrants. Due to the Company's net loss from continuing
operations for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, the effect
of the Company's potential dilutive common stock equivalents was anti-
dilutive for each year; as a result, the basic and diluted weighted average
number of common shares outstanding and net income (loss) per common share
are the same. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents which were
excluded from the net income (loss) per share calculations due to their
anti-dilutive effect amounted to 2,550,000 for 2003, 2,852,000 for 2002 and
4,880,543 for 2001.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income," which establishes standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined to
include all changes in stockholders' equity during a period except those
resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Since
inception, the Company has not had transactions that are required to be
reported in other comprehensive income. Comprehensive income (loss) for each
period presented is equal to the net income (loss) for each period as
presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
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. Significant estimates
include allowances for excess and obsolete inventories, allowances for
doubtful accounts, provisions for income taxes and related deferred tax
asset valuation allowances, and accruals for environmental cleanup and
remediation costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform
with the current year presentation.
Recent Pronouncements
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64,
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13 and Technical Corrections," which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 for provisions
related to SFAS No. 4, effective for all transactions occurring after May
15, 2002 for provisions related to SFAS No. 13 and effective for all
financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002 for all other
provisions of this Statement. The Company's loss from early extinguishment
of debt realized in the second quarter of 2002 has been presented within
continuing operations, rather than presented as an extraordinary item, in
accordance with SFAS No. 145.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This Statement addresses the
financial accounting and reporting of expenses related to restructurings
initiated after 2002, and applies to costs associated with an exit activity
(including a restructuring) or with a disposal of long-lived assets. Those
activities can include eliminating or reducing product lines, terminating
employees and contracts, and relocating plant facilities or personnel. Under
SFAS No. 146, a company will record a liability for a cost associated with
an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred and can be
measured at fair value. The provisions of this Statement are effective
prospectively for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31,
2002, and did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, " Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No.
123, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to
the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.
In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.
27
123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial
statements. Certain of the disclosure modifications are required for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 2002, and are presented herein.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement
133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which amends and
clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and
for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 149 is effective for
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging
relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149,
effective July 1, 2003, did not have an impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial position.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," which
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.
SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified
after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first
interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company's adoption of the
initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of SFAS No. 150,
effective June 1, 2003, did not have an impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial position.
2. Liquidity
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities of approximately $1,621,000 and cash
from operations. Management believes that existing cash, cash equivalents,
marketable securities and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to
meet the Company's foreseeable cash needs for at least the next year. In
addition, two shareholders of the Company have agreed to loan the Company up
to $500,000 each, if necessary, to fund the Company's deficit through March
31, 2005. There may be acquisition and other growth opportunities, however,
that require additional external financing. Management may, from time to
time, seek to obtain additional funds from public or private issuances of
equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that such additional
financings will be available or available on terms acceptable to the
Company.
3. Marketable Securities
Marketable securities at December 31, 2003 consist of an investment in
a short term bond mutual fund. The Company currently classifies all
marketable securities as available-for-sale. Securities classified as
available-for-sale are required to be reported at fair value with unrealized
gains and losses, net of taxes, excluded from operations and shown
separately as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within
stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses on the sale of available-
for-sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method.
The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses and fair value
of the available-for-sale marketable securities as of December 31, 2003 are
as follows (amounts in thousands):
Gross Gross
Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair
Cost Gains Losses Value
--------- ---------- ---------- -----
Mutual funds $800 $ - $ - $800
There were $0 and $58,000 of sales of available-for-sale marketable
securities during the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
4. Discontinued Operations
On September 15, 2000, the shareholders of the Company approved, and
the Company consummated, the sale of the assets and transfer of the
liabilities of the Vineland division, which produced and marketed poultry
vaccines and related products. The Company's results reflect a $283,000 gain
on the sale of the Vineland division for the year ended December 31, 2001.
On May 31, 2002, the shareholders of the Company approved, and the
Company consummated, the sale of the assets and transfer of the liabilities
of the Companion Pet Products division, which marketed companion pet care
related products. The buyer assumed liabilities of approximately $986,000,
and paid the Company cash in the amount of $16,254,000. The Company's
results reflect a $12,433,000 gain on the sale of the Companion Pet Products
division for the year ended December 31, 2002. The gain is net of direct
costs incurred by the Company in connection with the sale and the reduction
in the purchase price resulting from post-closing adjustments. For the year
ended December 31, 2003, the Company had a gain on the disposal of
discontinued operations of $435,000 which primarily consisted of a net gain
of $169,000 for an insurance settlement, net of legal costs, for damages
incurred by the Company as a result of a heating oil leak at the Companion
Pet Products manufacturing site and a net gain of $288,000 on the sale of
the former Companion Pet Products manufacturing site land and building on
December 18, 2003. The Companion Pet Products division incurred losses of
$523,000 and $720,000 in the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. The results for the year ended December 31, 2002 included an
impairment charge of $630,000 related to the Companion Pet Products
warehouse. Upon the sale of the Companion Pet Products division, the Company
paid all of its debt and interest owed to Fleet Capital Corporation
("Fleet") and American Capital Strategies, Ltd. ("ACS"). As a result, the
Company incurred a $2,654,000 loss from early extinguishment of debt in
connection with the prepayment fees paid to Fleet and ACS and the write-off
of the ACS debt discount.
During 2001, the Company recorded non-recurring charges related to the
cessation and shutdown of the manufacturing operations at the Companion Pet
Products facility of $991,000 offset by a grant from the State of New Jersey
for $81,000, for a net charge of $910,000. The Company applied to the New
Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) and the New Jersey Department
of Environmental Protection for a grant and loan to provide partial funding
for the costs of investigation and remediation of the environmental
contamination discovered at the Companion Pet Products facility. On June 26,
2001, the Company was awarded an $81,000 grant and a $246,000 loan. The
$81,000 grant was received in the third quarter of 2001. The loan, which
required monthly principal payments, had a term of ten years at a rate of
interest of 5%. The Company received funding of $45,000 and $182,000 from
the loan during 2003 and 2002, respectively. On December 18, 2003, the loan
was paid in full upon the sale of the Companion Pet Products facility, which
had served as the collateral for the loan.

Environmental cleanup costs $329 $(227) $102
==== ===== ====
5. Non-recurring Charges
During September 2001, the Company committed to a plan of sale for its
corporate office building. An impairment charge of $605,000 was recorded in
the third quarter of 2001 to reflect the difference between the selling
price, less related selling costs, and the net book value of the building.
The Company sold the building during February 2002.
6. Supply and Sublicensing Agreements
In February 2001, the Company signed a new manufacturing and supply
agreement and an assignment of trademark agreement for the WellSkinTM line
of skin care products with Genesis Pharmaceutical, Inc. The manufacturing
and supply agreement expires on December 13, 2005 and contains two ten-year
renewal options. The Company received a lump sum payment of $525,000 for the
assignment of the trademark, which is being recognized ratably over the term
of the arrangement. The Company recognized $105,000 of income related to
this agreement in each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001.
The Company entered into a sublicense agreement with Johnson & Johnson
Consumer Products, Inc. ("J&J") in 1995. The agreement provided J&J with a
sublicense to produce and sell Novasome(R) microencapsulated retinoid
products and provides for the payment of royalties on net sales of such
products. J&J began selling such products and making royalty payments in the
first quarter of 1998. The Company recognized $488,000, $714,000 and
$856,000 of royalty income related to this agreement for the years ended
December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
In August 1998, the Company granted Johnson & Johnson Medical ("JJM"),
a division of Ethicon, Inc., worldwide rights for the use of the Novasome(R)
technology for certain products and distribution channels. The agreement
provided for JJM to pay the Company $300,000 as well as future royalty
payments based on JJM's sales of sublicensed products. The Company
recognized $35,000, $32,000 and $105,000 of royalty income in 2003, 2002 and
2001, respectively, related to the agreement. In March of 2002, the
agreement between the Company and JJM was amended stating that JJM is no
longer required to make minimum payments and the license has been converted
to a non-exclusive worldwide license with the exception of Japan, which will
remain exclusive. If the amount of royalties paid by JJM equals or exceeds
$200,000 in any year, the following calendar year will become an exclusive
worldwide agreement and will remain so until royalties fall below that
amount.
In July 2001, the Company entered into a Research, Development and
Manufacturing Agreement with Apollo Pharmaceutical (Canada), Inc.
("Apollo"), previously known as Prime Pharmaceutical Corporation. The
purpose of the agreement was to develop a facial lotion, a facial creme and
scalp application for the treatment of psoriasis. The project has been
completed in stages with amounts being paid to the Company with the
successful completion of each stage. In addition, the Company has agreed to
rebate $3.60 per kilogram for the first 12,500 kilograms of product
manufactured for and sold to Apollo. The Company recognized $40,000 of
product sales related to this project in 2001.
In November 2002, the Company entered into a Manufacturing Service
Agreement with Desert Whale Jojoba Company, Inc. The purpose of this
agreement is to develop and manufacture jojobasomes to be used as a personal
care product. This project was in a developmental stage through 2002. The
Company recognized $7,000 of product sales related to this project in 2003.
In 2003, the Company received $28,000 of royalty income from Estee
Lauder pursuant to the Company's agreement with Estee Lauder for various

On October 29, 1999, the Company entered into a $22,000,000 senior
bank credit agreement ("Senior Debt Agreement") with Fleet and a $7,000,000
subordinated debt agreement ("Subordinated Debt Agreement") with ACS. To
secure all of its obligations under these agreements, the Company granted
the lenders a security interest in all of the assets and properties of the
Company and its subsidiaries. In connection with the Subordinated Debt
Agreement, ACS received warrants to purchase 1,907,543 shares of IGI common
stock at an exercise price of $.01 per share.
On May 31, 2002, the shareholders of the Company approved, and the
Company consummated, the sale of the assets and transfer of the liabilities
of the Companion Pet Products division. Upon the sale, the Company paid all
of its debt and interest owed to Fleet and ACS. As a result, the Company
incurred a $2,654,000 loss from early extinguishment of debt in connection
with the prepayment fees paid to Fleet and ACS and the write-off of the ACS
debt discount.
30
The Company received a $246,000 loan to provide partial funding for
the costs of investigating and remediating the environmental contamination
discovered at the Companion Pet Products facility. The loan required monthly
principal payments over a term of ten years at a rate of interest of 5%. The
Company received funding of $45,000 and $182,000 under the loan during 2003
and 2002, respectively. On December 18, 2003, the loan was paid in full upon
the sale of the former Companion Pet Products facility, which served as
collateral for the loan.
11. Stock Warrants
In connection with the $7,000,000 Subordinated Debt Agreement, the
Company issued warrants to purchase 1,907,543 shares of IGI common stock at
an exercise price of $.01 per share to ACS.
The warrants issued to ACS were valued at issuance date utilizing the
Black-Scholes model and initially recorded as a liability, due to the
presence of a put right which required the Company to repurchase the
warrants or underlying common stock under certain circumstances. A
corresponding debt discount of $2,842,000 was recorded at issuance. The
liability was marked-to-market, based on changes in the value of the
underlying common stock, with the change in market value recognized as a
component of interest expense in the period of change.
On April 12, 2000, ACS amended its Subordinated Debt Agreement with
the Company whereby the put provision associated with the original warrants
was replaced by a make-whole feature. The make-whole feature required the
Company to compensate ACS, in either common stock or cash, at the option of
the Company, in the event that ACS ultimately realized proceeds from the
sale of the common stock obtained upon exercise of its warrants that were
less than the fair value of the common stock upon exercise of such warrants.
Fair value of the common stock upon exercise was defined as the 30-day
average value prior to notice of intent to sell. ACS was required to
exercise reasonable effort to sell or place its shares in the marketplace
over a 180-day period, beginning with the date of notice by ACS, before it
could invoke the make-whole provision. As a result of the April 12, 2000
amendment, the recorded liability at April 12, 2000 of $3,338,000 was
reclassified to equity.
As noted above, the make-whole feature required the Company to
compensate ACS for any decrease in value between the date that ACS notified
the Company that they intended to sell some or all of the stock and the date
that ACS ultimately disposed of the underlying stock, assuming that such
disposition occurred in an orderly fashion over a period of not more than
180 days. The shortfall could be paid using either cash or shares of the
Company's common stock, at the option of the Company.
On June 26, 2002, the Company received notice from ACS that it was
exercising the warrant. ACS opted to satisfy payment of the exercise price
through the use of the cashless exercise provisions of the warrant. The
Company issued 1,878,640 fully paid up shares of common stock to ACS on July
7, 2002. Based on the provisions of the make-whole feature, the fair value
of the common stock was $.67 per share as of the notification date. On July
19, 2002, the Company's Board of Directors approved the purchase of the
1,878,640 shares from ACS for $.70 per share. The Company completed the
purchase on July 29, 2002 for $1,315,000 and classified the shares as
treasury shares.
In February 1999, the Company granted 270,000 warrants with an
exercise price of $2.00. The warrants expired on January 31, 2004.
12. Stock Options and Common Stock
Under the 1989 and 1991 Stock Option Plans, options have been granted
to key employees, directors and consultants to purchase a maximum of 500,000
and 2,600,000 shares of common stock, respectively. Options, having a
maximum term of ten years, have been granted at 100% of the fair market
value of the Company's stock at the time of grant. Both incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options have been granted under the 1989
Plan and the 1991 Plan. Incentive stock options are generally exercisable in
cumulative increments over four years commencing one year from the date of
grant. Non-qualified options are generally exercisable in full beginning six
months after the date of grant.
In October 1998, the Company adopted the 1998 Directors Stock Plan.
Under this plan, 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock are reserved
for issuance to non-employee directors, in lieu of payment of directors'
fees in cash. In 2002 and 2001, 70,011 and 129,989 shares of common stock
were issued as consideration for directors' fees, respectively. In 2003 and
2002, the Company issued 79,318 and 311 shares of common stock as
consideration for directors' fees under the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan ("1999
Plan"). The Company recognized $55,000, $48,000 and $79,000 of expense
related to shares issued to directors during the years ended December 31,
2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
In December 1998, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the 1999
Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). An aggregate of 300,000 shares of
common stock may be issued pursuant to the ESPP. All employees of the
Company and its subsidiaries, including officers or directors who are also
an employee, are eligible to participate in the ESPP. Shares under this plan
are available for purchase at 85% of the fair market value of the Company's
stock on the first or last day of the offering period, whichever is lower.
The Company issued 9,253, 30,975 and 65,033 shares in 2003, 2002 and 2001,
respectively, under the ESPP.
In March 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 1999
Plan. The 1999 Plan replaced all previously authorized stock option plans,
and no additional options may be granted under those plans. Under the 1999
Plan, options or stock awards may be granted to all of the Company's
employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors to purchase a
maximum of 1,200,000 shares of common stock. In May 2002, the Company's
shareholders approved an increase in the maximum amount of shares to be
granted by 800,000, for a total of 2,000,000 shares available for grant. A
total of 927,250 options (net of cancellations), having a maximum term of
ten years, have been granted at 100% of the fair market value of the
Company's stock at the time of grant. Options outstanding under the 1999
Plan are generally exercisable in cumulative increments over four years
commencing one year from date of grant. In addition, as noted above,
79,629 stock awards have been granted under the 1999 Plan.
31
In September 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 1999
Director Stock Option Plan. The 1999 Director Stock Option Plan provides for
the grant of stock options to non-employee directors of the Company at an
exercise price equal to the fair market value per share on the date of the
grant. An aggregate of 675,000 shares have been approved and authorized for
issuance pursuant to this plan. In May 2001, an additional 800,000 shares
were approved for issuance under this plan, bringing the total to 1,475,000
available for issue under this plan. A total of 935,000 options have been
granted to non-employee directors through December 31, 2003. The options
granted under the 1999 Director Stock Option Plan vest in full one year
after their respective grant dates and have a maximum term of ten years.
Stock option transactions in each of the past three years under the
aforementioned plans in total were:

15. Legal and U.S. Regulatory Proceedings
Gallo Matter
As previously reported by the Company in its historical filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including without limitation
its Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1999, for most of 1997 and
1998 the Company was subject to intensive government regulatory scrutiny by
the U.S. Departments of Justice, Treasury and Agriculture. In June 1997, the
Company was advised by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
("APHIS") of the United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") that the
Company had shipped quantities of some of its poultry vaccine products
without complying with certain regulatory and record keeping requirements.
The USDA subsequently issued an order that the Company stop shipment of
certain of its products. Shortly thereafter, in July 1997, the Company was
advised that the USDA's Office of Inspector General had commenced an
investigation into possible violations of the Virus Serum Toxin Act of 1914
and alleged false statements made to APHIS. In April 1998, the SEC advised
the Company that it was conducting an informal inquiry and requested
information and documents from the Company, which the Company voluntarily
provided to the SEC.
Based upon these events, the Board of Directors caused an immediate
and thorough investigation of the facts and circumstances of the alleged
violations to be undertaken by independent counsel. The Company continued to
refine and strengthen its regulatory programs with the adoption of a series
of compliance and enforcement policies, the addition of new managers of
Production and Quality Control and a new Senior Vice President and General
Counsel. At the instruction of the Board of Directors, the Company's General
Counsel established and oversaw a comprehensive employee training program,
designated in writing a Regulatory Compliance Officer, and established a
fraud detection program, as well as an employee "hotline." The Company
continued to cooperate with the USDA and SEC in all aspects of their
investigation and regulatory activities. On March 13, 2002, the Company
reached a settlement with the staff of the SEC to resolve matters arising
with respect to the investigation of the Company. Under the settlement, the
Company neither admitted nor denied that the Company violated the financial
reporting and record-keeping requirements of Section 13 of the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the three years ended December 31,
1997. Further, the Company agreed to the entry of an order to cease and
desist from any such violation in the future. No monetary penalty was
assessed.
As a result of its internal investigation, in November 1997, the
Company terminated the employment of John P. Gallo as President and Chief
Operating Officer for willful misconduct. On April 21, 1998, the Company
instituted a lawsuit against Mr. Gallo in the New Jersey Superior Court. The
lawsuit alleged willful misconduct and malfeasance in office, as well as
embezzlement and related claims (referred to as "the IGI Action"). On April
28, 1998, Mr. Gallo instituted a separate action against the Company and two
of its Directors, Edward Hager, M.D. and Constantine Hampers, M.D., alleging
that he had been wrongfully terminated from employment and further alleging
wrongdoings by the two Directors (referred to as the "Gallo Action"). The
Court subsequently ordered the consolidation of the IGI Action and the Gallo
Action (collectively referred to as the "Consolidated Action").
In response to these allegations, the Company instituted an
investigation of the two Directors by an independent committee ("Independent
Committee") of the Board assisted by the Company's General Counsel. The
investigation included a series of interviews of the Directors, both of whom
cooperated with the Company, and a review of certain records and documents.
The Company also requested an interview with Mr. Gallo who, through his
counsel, declined to cooperate. In September 1998, the Independent Committee
reported to the Board that it had found no credible evidence to support Mr.
Gallo's claims and allegations and recommended no further action. The Board
adopted the recommendation.
34
The Company denied all allegations plead in the Gallo Action and
asserted all claims in the Gallo Action to be without merit. The Company did
not reserve any amount relating to such claims. The Company tendered the
claim to its insurance carriers, but was denied insurance coverage for both
defense and indemnity of the Gallo Action.
In July 1998, the Company sought to depose Mr. Gallo in connection
with the Consolidated Action. Through his counsel, Mr. Gallo asserted his
Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination and advised that he
would not participate in the discovery process until such time as a federal
grand jury investigation, in which he was a target, was concluded. In
January 1999, at the suggestion of the Court, the Company and Mr. Gallo
agreed to a voluntary dismissal without prejudice of the Consolidated
Action, with the understanding that the statute of limitations was tolled
for all parties and all claims, and that the Company and Mr. Gallo were free
to reinstate their suits against each other at a later date, with each party
reserving all of their rights and remedies against the other.
As of the date hereof, neither the Company nor Mr. Gallo have filed
suit against each other in the Superior Court of New Jersey or any other
court of competent jurisdiction to reinstitute the claims, in whole or part,
previously at issue in the Consolidated Action, and pursuant to the previous
order of dismissal entered in the Consolidated Action, the statute of
limitation on all claims and defenses continues to be tolled as to both
parties. However, the Company did receive a letter dated November 21, 2003
from Mr. Gallo's attorneys seeking to reach a settlement of the claims
asserted against IGI in the Gallo Action without further resort to the
courts. The letter provides a general description of Mr. Gallo's claims and
a calculation of damages allegedly sustained by Mr. Gallo relative thereto.
The letter states that Mr. Gallo's damages are calculated to be in the range
of $3,400,000 to $5,100,000. The Company denies liability for the claims and
damages alleged in the letter from Mr. Gallo's counsel dated November 21,
2003, and as such, the Company did not make any formal response thereto. Mr.
Gallo has contacted the Company's Chief Executive Officer & Chairman, Frank
Gerardi, in a continued effort to initiate settlement discussions. As of the
present date, the Company continues to deny any merit and/or liability for
the claims alleged by Mr. Gallo and has not engaged in any formal settlement
discussions with either Mr. Gallo or his attorneys.
On December 8, 2003, Mr. Gallo filed suit against Novavax, Inc. in the
Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Atlantic County, docket no. ATL-
L-3388-03, asserting claims under seven counts for damages allegedly
sustained as a result of the cancellation of certain Novavax stock options
held by Mr. Gallo due to his termination from IGI in November 1997 for
willful misconduct (referred to as the "Novavax Action").
On March 5, 2004, Novavax filed an Answer denying the allegations
asserted by Mr. Gallo in his First Amended Complaint. In addition, while
denying any liability under the First Amended Complaint, Novavax also filed
a Third Party Complaint in the Novavax Action against the Company for
contribution and indemnification, alleging that if liability for Mr. Gallo's
claims is found, the Company has primary liability for any and all such
damages sustained.
IGI has tendered to its insurers the Third Party Complaint for defense
and indemnification and is waiting to receive a response thereto. The
Company will proceed with its defense of the Third Party Complaint in the
Novavax Action in accordance with the rules of Court pursuant to advice of
counsel.
Mr. Gallo has not specified the amount of damages sought to be
recovered in the Novavax Action, and hence, the amount in controversy in the
Novavax Action is currently unknown.
Other Matters
On April 6, 2000, officials of the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection inspected the Company's storage site in Buena, New
Jersey and issued Notices of Violation relating to the storage of waste
materials in a number of trailers at the site. The Company established a
disposal and cleanup schedule and completed the removal of materials from
the site. The Company continues to discuss with the authorities a resolution
of any potential assessment under the NOV's and has accrued the estimated
penalties related to such NOV's.
On March 2, 2001, the Company discovered the presence of environmental
contamination resulting from an unknown heating oil leak at its Companion
Pet Products manufacturing site. The Company immediately notified the New
Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and the local authorities, and
hired a certified environmental contractor to assess the exposure and
required clean up. Based on the initial information from the contractor, the
Company originally estimated the cost for the cleanup and remediation to be
$310,000. In September 2001, the contractor updated the estimated total cost
for the cleanup and remediation to be $550,000. A further update was
performed in December 2002 and the final estimated cost was increased to
$620,000, of which $102,000 remains accrued as of December 31, 2003. The
remediation was completed by September 30, 2003. There will be periodic
testing and removal performed, which is projected to span over the next five
years. The estimated cost of the monitoring is included in the accrual.
The Company's common stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange
("AMEX"). Based on the Company's 2003 results, the Company is not in
compliance with the AMEX requirement for reporting income from continuing
operations and net income for the year ended December 31, 2003, which could
subject it to potentially being delisted from AMEX. As of April 7, 2004, the
Company has not been contacted by AMEX concerning the Company's non-
compliance with the AMEX requirements.

16. Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions
In 2000, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer chose to defer
payment of 2000 and 1999 travel expenses amounting to $129,000 until the
Company's cash flow stabilized. On February 14, 2001, the Company agreed to
pay the Company's obligation using shares of common stock. Total payments
through December 31, 2001 resulted in the issuance of 125,625 shares valued
at $129,000.
17. Employee Benefits
The Company has a 401(k) contribution plan, pursuant to which
employees who have completed six months of employment with the Company or
its subsidiaries as of specified dates, may elect to contribute to the plan,
in whole percentages, up to 18% of compensation. Employees' contributions
are subject to a minimum contribution by participants of 1% of compensation
and a maximum contribution of $12,000 for 2003. The Company matches 25% of
the first 5% of compensation contributed by participants and contributes, on
behalf of each participant, $4 per week of employment during the year. The
Company contribution is in the form of either common stock or cash, which is
vested immediately. The Company has recorded charges to expense related to
this plan of approximately $15,000, $23,000 and $31,000 in 2003, 2002 and
2001, respectively.
18. License Agreement with Dr. Michael Holick
On December 24, 2003, the Company entered into a License Agreement
with Dr. Holick and A&D Bioscience, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation wholly
owned by Dr. Holick (collectively referred to as "Holick"), whereby Holick
granted an exclusive license to the Company to all his rights to the
parathyroid hormone related peptide technologies and the Glycoside
technologies (referred to as "PTH Technologies" and "Glycoside
Technologies", respectively) that he developed for various clinical usages
including treatment of psoriasis, hair loss and other skin disorders. In
consideration for entering into the License Agreement, Holick received up-
front a $50,000 non-refundable payment from the Company. He will also
receive a grant of 300,000 stock options under the Company's authorized
stock option plans. In addition, Holick shall receive a single milestone
payment of $236,000 contingent on the execution of a sublicense agreement
between the Company and a third-party for the licensed technologies. Certain
subsequent royalty payments received by the Company under a sublicense
agreement will be shared with Holick after the Company has recovered any
payments previously made to Holick under the License Agreement and an amount
equal to the value of the options received by Holick under the License
Agreement. The Company is responsible for any and all costs, fees and
expenses for the prosecution and oversight of any intellectual property
rights related to the licensed technologies. Subject to Holick's early
termination rights as provided below, the term of the License Agreement is
the longer of twenty (20) years or the life of each of the patents
thereunder. However, if within 180 days from the effective date of the
License Agreement, the Company has not entered into a sublicense agreement
for the PTH Technologies or raised sufficient capital to fund Phase 1 of the
New Drug Study Human Clinical Trial for Alopecia, Holick has the right to
terminate the License Agreement as to the PTH Technologies only, provided
Holick returns any and all consideration he received from or paid by the
Company under the License Agreement prior thereto, excluding the up-front
payment. Further, if within 90 days from the effective date of the License
Agreement, the Company has not entered into a sublicense agreement for the
Glycoside Technologies, Holick has the right to terminate the License
Agreement as to the Glycoside Technologies only. The Company is currently
negotiating a sublicense agreement with a third party entity for the PTH (1-
34) technology. The Company is likewise engaged in discussions with the same
third party entity for a similar sublicense for the PTH (7-34) technology.
The $50,000 payment was expensed because the PTH and Glycoside
Technologies are in a preliminary development phase and do not have any
readily determinable alternative future use. The $236,000 cash payment
called for by the License Agreement will be expensed upon the signing of a
sublicense agreement. The other consideration called for under the License
Agreement (i.e., amounts advanced for the prosecution and oversight of any
intellectual property rights related to the licensed technologies and the
value ascribed to the stock options) will be expensed once the 180-day
provision is rendered inoperative.

The second and third quarters of 2003 have been restated from the
amounts previously disclosed by the Company due to two items. The first item
related to the $50,000 non-refundable payment made to Dr. Holick in
connection with the License Agreement (see Note 18). Such amount, which was
paid in the third quarter, has been expensed since the PTH and Glycoside
Technologies are in a preliminary development phase and do not have any
readily determinable alternative future use. The second adjustment related
to an error made by J&J in the calculation of the royalties due to the
Company. The correction of the error resulted in a reduction of revenues,
with a corresponding impact on net loss, of $42,000 in the second quarter of
2003 and $51,000 in the third quarter of 2003. The impact of the J&J error
on the first quarter of 2003 was immaterial, and has been included in the
second quarter adjustment amount.
The fourth quarter of 2003 includes $224,000 of tax benefit from the
sale of New Jersey state net operating loss carryforwards. During the fourth
quarter of 2002, the Company reduced income tax expense by approximately
$600,000 based on the finalization of its year end tax provision
calculation.
