NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2017

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Emmaus”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s unaudited consolidated interim financial statements contain adjustments, including normal recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows.

Due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to meet its current operating and capital expenses, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, as the continuation and expansion of its business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, successful and sufficient market acceptance of its products, and finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. The consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2017 (the “Annual Report”). Interim results for the periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Annual Report for a summary of significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2017. Below are disclosures of certain interim balances, transactions, and significant assumptions used in computing fair value as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and comparative amounts from the prior fiscal periods:

Investment capital reserve — An investment capital reserve occurs when securities are purchased but not yet received because of a settlement period. Accordingly, $31.8 million has been reflected as an investment capital reserve on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 for the Company’s investment in Telcon Inc. (“Telcon”) shares.

Inventories — All of the raw material purchased during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016 was from one vendor. The below table presents inventory by category:

Inventory by category	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Work-in-process	$	139,943	$	34,462
Finished goods	130,868		131,747
	$	270,811	$	166,209

Advertising cost — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $8,807 and $11,500, respectively. Advertising costs for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $17,198 and $15,439, respectively.

Marketable securities — The Company’s marketable securities consist of three securities; (a) 39,250 shares of capital stock of CellSeed, Inc. (“CellSeed”) which are part of 147,100 shares acquired in January 2009 for ¥100,028,000 Japanese Yen (JPY) (equivalent to $1,109,819 USD), at ¥680 JPY per share; (b) 849,744 shares of capital stock of KPM Tech Co., Ltd. (“KPM”) which were acquired in October 2016 for ₩14,318,186,400 South Korean Won (KRW) (equivalent to $13 million USD) at ₩16,850 KRW per share; and (c) 271,950 shares of capital stock of Hanil Vacuum Co., Ltd. (“Hanil”) which were acquired in October 2016 for ₩1,101,397,500 KRW (equivalent to $1 million USD) at ₩4,050 KRW per share. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the closing price per share for CellSeed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange was ¥532 JPY ($4.73 USD) and ¥536 JPY ($4.58 USD), respectively, the closing price per share for KPM on the KOSDAQ was ₩2,625 KRW ($2.30 USD) after 1-for-5 reverse stock split effective June 28, 2017 and ₩14,600 KRW ($12.08 USD), respectively, the closing price per share for Hanil on the KOSDAQ was ₩2,985 KRW ($2.62 USD) and ₩2,895 KRW ($2.40 USD), respectively.

As of June 30, 2017, the shares of CellSeed common stock were pledged to secure a $300,000 convertible note of the Company issued to Mitsubishi UFJ Capital III Limited Partnership that is due on demand and were classified as current assets, as marketable securities, pledged to creditor.

Table of Contents

Prepaid expenses and other current assets — Prepaid expenses and other current assets consisted of the following at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Prepaid insurance	$	126,750	$	100,060
Other prepaid expenses and current assets	169,889		29,144
	$	296,639	$	129,204

Other Current Liabilities — Included in the balance of other current liabilities as of June 30, 2017 is the $31.8 million received from Telcon related to an API supply agreement, disclosed in more detail at Note 7, and the upfront payment of $5 million received from Telcon for the distribution agreement.

Fair value measurements — The following table presents the activity for those items measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016:

	Period ended
Warrant Derivative Liabilities—Stock Purchase Warrants	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Balance, beginning of period	$	10,600,000	$	7,863,000
Change in fair value included in consolidated statements of comprehensive loss	5,662,000		2,737,000
Balance, end of period	$	16,262,000	$	10,600,000

The value of the liability classified warrants, the value of warrant derivative liabilities and the change in fair value of the liability classified warrants and warrant derivative liabilities were determined using a Binomial Monte-Carlo Cliquet (aka “Ratchet”) Option Pricing Model. The model is similar to traditional Black-Scholes-type option pricing models, except that the exercise price resets at certain dates in the future. The values as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the initial value as of September 11, 2013 were calculated based on the following assumptions:

	June 30, 2017			December 31, 2016			Initial Value
Stock price	$	8.20		$	6.00		$	3.60
Risk-free interest rate	1.27		%	1.09		%	1.72		%
Expected volatility (peer group)	59.20		%	68.30		%	72.40		%
Expected life (in years)	1.20			1.70			5.00
Number outstanding	3,320,501			3,320,501			3,320,501
Balance, end of period:
Liability classified warrants	$	—		$	—		$	7,541,000
Warrant derivative liabilities	$	16,262,000		$	10,600,000		$	—

Debt and related party debt — The following table presents the effective interest rates on loans originated and refinanced in the respective periods that either had a beneficial conversion feature or an attached warrant:

		Stated		Original			Beneficial		Warrants			Warrant		Effective
		Annual		Loan			Conversion		Issued			FMV		Interest Rate

2017 convertible notes payable	Due on demand - 2 years	10	%	6,476,026		$3.50- $7.60	5,392,922		—	$	—	—		10% - 99%
Total				$	17,342,317		$	8,589,466	75,000			$	161,658

Related party notes are disclosed as separate line items in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Net loss per share — As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, potentially dilutive securities exercisable or convertible into 15,568,835 and 14,410,498 shares of Company common stock were outstanding. No potentially dilutive securities were included in the calculation of diluted loss per share since their effect would be anti-dilutive for all periods presented.

Recent accounting pronouncements— In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments applicable to the Company in this Update (1) supersede the guidance to classify equity securities, except equity method securities, with readily determinable fair values into trading or available-for-sale categories and require equity securities to be

Table of Contents

measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income, (2) allow equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values to be remeasured at fair value either upon the occurrence of an observable price change or upon identification of an impairment, (3) require assessment for impairment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values qualitatively at each reporting period, (4) eliminate the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used in calculating the fair value of financial instruments required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (5) require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, (6) require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements, (7) clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The amendments should be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values (including disclosure requirements) should be applied prospectively to equity investments that exist as of the date of adoption of the Update. The impact of the adoption of the amendments in this Update will depend on the amount of equity securities and financial instruments subject to the amendments in this Update held by the Company at the time of adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The amendments in this Update require a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. For leases less than twelve months, an entity is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the amendments in this Update on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations; however, adoption of the amendments in this Update are expected to be material for most entities who have a material lease with a term of greater than twelve months.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for share-based payment award transactions including: income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. This Update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”). The amendments in ASU 2016-10 clarify identification of performance obligations and licensing implementation. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606: For public companies, this Update is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2016-10 will have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 provides guidance on the following eight specific cash flow classification issues: (1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; (2) settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; (3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) distributions received from equity method investees; (7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and (8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. Current GAAP does not include specific guidance on these eight cash flow classification issues. The amendments of this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have on its financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). ASU 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist companies and other reporting organizations with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. For public companies, the ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017,

including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of this new Update will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting (“ASU 2017-09”). ASU 2017-09 provides clarity and reduce both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The weighted-average stated interest rate of notes payable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 10%. The weighted-average effective interest rate of notes payable for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 was 31% and 27%, respectively, after giving effect to discounts relating to beneficial conversion features and the fair value of warrants issued in connection with these notes. The notes payable and convertible notes payable do not have restrictive financial covenants or acceleration clauses associated with a material adverse change event. The holders of the convertible notes have the option to convert their notes into Company common stock at the stated conversion price during the term of their convertible notes. Conversion prices on these convertible notes payable range from $3.05 to $3.60 per share. Certain notes with a $4.50 or a $7.00 stated conversion price in the second year of their two-year term are subject to automatic conversion into shares of Company common stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the initial public offering price at the time of a qualified public offering. All notes due on demand are treated as current liabilities.

Contractual principal payments due on notes payable are as follows:

Year Ending	June 30, 2017
2017	$	17,987,243
2018	$	1,405,762
2019	$	555,591
Total	$	19,948,596

The Company estimated the total fair value of any beneficial conversion feature and accompanying warrants in allocating the note proceeds. The proceeds allocated to the beneficial conversion feature were determined by taking the estimated fair value of shares issuable under the convertible notes less the fair value of the number of shares that would be issued if the conversion rate equaled the fair value of Company common stock as of the date of issuance (see Note 2). The fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with notes was determined using the Black Scholes Merton Option Pricing Model with the following inputs for the periods ended December 31, 2016. The Company did not issue any warrants in conjunction with notes in the six months ended June 30, 2017.

	December 31, 2016
Stock price	$	5.00
Exercise price	$	4.50 - 4.70
Term	5 years
Risk-free interest rate	1.01 - 1.28%
Expected dividend yield	—
Expected volatility	65.4 - 69.6%

In situations where the notes included both a beneficial conversion feature and a warrant, the proceeds were allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion feature based on their respective pro rata fair values.

NOTE 6 — STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Private placement — On September 11, 2013, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,020,501 units at a price of $2.50 per unit (the “Private Placement”). Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one common stock warrant for the purchase of an additional share of common stock. The aggregate purchase price for the units was $7,551,253. In addition, 300,000 warrants for the purchase of a share of common stock were issued to a broker under the same terms as the warrants issued in the Private Placement (the “Broker Warrants”).

The warrants issued in the Private Placement and the Broker Warrants entitle the holders thereof to purchase, at any time on or prior to September 11, 2018, shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $3.50 per share. The warrants contain non-standard anti-dilution protection and, consequently, are being accounted for as liabilities, were originally recorded at fair value, and are adjusted to fair market value each reporting period. Because the shares of common stock underlying the Private Placement warrants and Broker Warrants were not effectively registered for resale by September 11, 2014, the warrant holders have an option to exercise the warrants using a cashless exercise feature. The shares have not been registered for resale as of June 30, 2017. The availability to warrant holders of the cashless exercise feature as of September 11, 2014 caused the then-outstanding 2,225,036 Private Placement warrants and Broker Warrants with fair value of $7,068,000 to be reclassified from liability classified warrants to warrant derivative liabilities and to continue to be remeasured at fair value each reporting period. On June 10, 2014, certain warrant holders exercised 1,095,465 warrants issued in the Private Placement for the exercise price of $3.50 per share, resulting in the Company receiving aggregate exercise proceeds of $3.8 million and issuing 1,095,465 shares of common stock. Prior to exercise, these Private Placement warrants were accounted for at fair value as liability classified warrants. As of June 10, 2014, immediately prior to exercise, the carrying value of these Private Placement warrants was reduced to their fair value immediately prior to exercise of

$1.8 million, representing their intrinsic value, with this adjusted carrying value of $1.8 million being transferred to additional paid-in capital. Also on June 10, 2014, based on an offer made to holders of Private Placement warrants in connection with such exercises, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,095,465 replacement warrants to holders exercising Private Placement warrants, which replacement warrants have terms that are generally the same as the exercised warrants, including an expiration date of September 11, 2018 and an exercise price of $3.50 per share.

The replacement warrants are treated for accounting purposes as liability classified warrants, and their issuance gave rise to a $3.5 million warrant exercise inducement expense based on their fair value as of issuance as determined using a Binomial Monte-Carlo Cliquet (aka Ratchet) Option Pricing Model. Because the shares of common stock underlying the replacement warrants were not effectively registered for resale by June 10, 2015, the warrant holders have an option to exercise the warrants using a cashless exercise feature. The shares have not been registered for resale as of June 30, 2017. The availability to warrant holders of the cashless exercise feature as of June 10, 2015 caused the then-outstanding 1,095,465 replacement warrants with fair value of $2,545,000 to be reclassified from liability classified warrants to warrant derivative liabilities and to continue to be remeasured at fair value each reporting period.

As of June 30, 2017, the aggregate fair value of the Private Placement warrants, replacement warrants and the Broker Warrants was $16,262,000 (see Note 2). For further details regarding registration rights associated with the Private Placement warrants, replacement warrants and Broker Warrants, see the Registration Rights section below in this footnote.

Stock options — During the six months ended June 30, 2017, no options were granted by the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company granted 2,596,200 options to its officers, directors and employees. Of these options, 300,000 granted to directors of the Company will vest in equal one-third installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, have an exercise price of $4.70 per share and are exercisable through 2026. The remaining 2,296,200 options will vest one-third on the first anniversary of the grant date and two-thirds in 24 approximately equal monthly installments thereafter. These options have an exercise price of $5.00 per share and are exercisable through 2026. As of June 30, 2017, there were 6,755,200 options outstanding under the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $2.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense arising from stock options. As of June 30, 2017, there was $5.4 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. That expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining period of 1.7 years.

Registration rights — Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements relating to the Private Placement and certain warrants, as well as the replacement warrants issued on June 10, 2014, the Company agreed to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to have on file with the SEC, by September 11, 2014 and at the Company’s sole expense, a registration statement to permit the public resale of 4,115,966 shares of Company common stock and 3,320,501 shares of common stock underlying warrants (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”). In the event such registration statement includes securities to be offered and sold by the Company in a fully underwritten primary public offering pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Company is advised in good faith by any managing underwriter of securities being offered pursuant to such registration statement that the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such offering is greater than the number of such securities which can be included in such offering without materially adversely affecting such offering, the Company will include in such registration the following securities in the following order of priority: (i) any securities the Company proposes to sell, and (ii) the Registrable Securities, with any reductions in the number of Registrable Securities actually included in such registration to be allocated on a pro rata basis among the holders thereof. The registration rights described above apply until all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or may be sold without registration in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities Act without limitation as to volume and without the requirement of any notice filing. If the shares of common stock underlying these warrants to purchase 3,320,501 shares are not registered for resale at the time of exercise, and the registration rights described above then apply with respect to the holder of such warrants, such holder may exercise such warrants on a cashless basis. In such a cashless exercise of all the shares covered by the warrant, the warrant holder would receive a number of shares equal to the quotient of (i) the difference between the fair market value of the common stock, as defined, and the $3.50 exercise price, as adjusted, multiplied by the number of shares exercisable under the warrant, divided by (ii) the fair market value of the common stock, as defined. As of June 30, 2017, based on a fair market value of a share of Company common stock of $8.20 and 3,320,501 warrants issued and outstanding and eligible for cashless exercise, the maximum number of shares the Company would be required to issue, if the warrant holders elected to exercise the cashless exercise feature with respect to all then eligible warrants, is 1,903,214 shares. If the fair market value of a share of Company common stock were to increase by $1.00 from $8.20 to $9.20, the maximum number of shares the Company would be required to issue, if the warrant holders elected to exercise the cashless exercise feature with respect to all then eligible warrants, would increase to 2,057,267 shares as of June 30, 2017.

Management Control Acquisition Agreement — On June 12, 2017, the Company entered into a Management Control Acquisition Agreement (the “MCAA”) with Telcon Holdings Corporation (“Telcon Holdings”), a Korean corporation, and Telcon, a Korean-based public company whose shares are listed on KOSDAQ, a trading board of Korea Exchange in South Korea. In accordance with the MCAA, the Company invested ₩36.0 billion KRW (approximately $31.8 million USD) to purchase 6,643,559 shares of Telcon’s common stock shares at a purchase price of ₩5,419 KRW (approximately $4.79 USD) per share. Upon consummation of the MCAA, the Company became Telcon’s largest shareholder owning approximately 10.3% of Telcon’s outstanding common stock shares.

Subsequent to entering into the MCAA, the Company has been having ongoing discussions with Telcon Holdings to re-negotiate and clarify certain of the terms in the MCAA. (see Note 10)

API Supply Agreement — The Company had previously reported in its Form 8-K filed on June 19, 2017, that on June 12, 2017, the Company entered into an API Supply Agreement (the “API Agreement”) with Telcon pursuant to which Telcon paid the Company approximately ₩36 billion KRW (approximately $31.8 million USD) in consideration of the right to supply 25% of the Company’s requirements for bulk containers of pharmaceutical grade L-glutamine for a fifteen-year term. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Company and Telcon held new discussions to re-negotiate certain terms of the API Agreement. The Company and Telcon made significant changes to critical terms of the API Agreement, which resulted in the Company and Telcon signing a Raw Material Supply Agreement (“Revised API Agreement”) on July 12, 2017. The Revised API Agreement is effective for a term of five years with 10 one-year renewal periods for a maximum of 15 years and the agreement will automatically renew unless terminated by either party in writing. The Revised API Agreement does not include yearly purchase commitments or margin guarantees, but revises the API Agreement such that a unit price is established for 940,000 kilograms of pharmaceutical grade L-glutamine at $50 USD per kilogram for a total of $47 million over the 15 years. The Revised API Supply Agreement is silent on yearly purchase commitments and margin guarantees on purchases of $5M and $2.5M, respectively, and the requirement for Emmaus' security interests in KPM of 4,248,720 and newly acquired Telcon to be pledged, which are included in the API Supply Agreement. The MCAA has not been amended to date to reflect changes made in the Revised API Supply Agreement, but the Company is in ongoing discussions to do so.

Company Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of innovative treatments and therapies primarily for rare and orphan diseases. We are currently focusing on SCD, a genetic disorder and a significant unmet medical need. Our lead product Endari™ is an oral pharmaceutical grade L-glutamine treatment that demonstrated positive clinical results in our completed Phase 3 clinical trial for sickle cell anemia and sickle ß0-thalassemia, two of the most common forms of SCD.

In the Phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center clinical trial which enrolled a total of 230 adult and pediatric patients as young as five years of age, at 31 sites in the United States, Endari™ was administered up to 30 grams per day and demonstrated a 25% decrease in the median frequency of sickle cell crises and 33% decrease in the median number of hospitalizations, as compared to placebo. Based on an analysis, utilizing pre-specified statistical methods, the difference between groups was statistically significant; p=0.0052 and p=0.0045, respectively. Other clinically relevant endpoints showed similar results such as a 66% lower incidence of acute chest syndrome (p=0.0028), 41% less cumulative days in hospital (p=0.022) and 56% delay in onset of the first sickle cell crisis (p=0.0152). The safety data collected demonstrated a safety profile similar to that of placebo.

Based on the results of the Phase 3 clinical trial and other supportive studies, EndariTM was approved for marketing by the FDA on July 7, 2017. EndariTM represents the first treatment for pediatric patients with SCD, and the first new treatment in nearly 20 years for adult patients.

Endari™ has received Orphan Drug designation from both the FDA and the European Commission (“EC”). We intend to market Endari™ in the U.S. either by strategic partnership or by building our own targeted sales force or some combination thereof, and to utilize strategic partnerships to market Endari™ in any foreign jurisdictions in which we are able to obtain marketing approval.

We have extensive experience in the field of SCD, including the development, outsourced manufacturing and conduct of clinical trials of EndariTM. Our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Yutaka Niihara, M.D., M.P.H., is a leading hematologist in the field of SCD. Dr. Niihara is licensed to practice medicine in both the United States and Japan and has

Table of Contents

been actively engaged in SCD research and the care of patients with SCD for over 20 years, primarily at the University of California Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center (“LA BioMed”), a nonprofit biomedical research institute.

To a lesser extent, we are also engaged in the sale of NutreStore, L-glutamine powder for oral solution, which has received FDA approval as a treatment for short bowel syndrome (“SBS”) in patients receiving specialized nutritional support when used in conjunction with a recombinant human growth hormone that is approved for this indication. Our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Newfield Nutrition, sells L-glutamine as a nutritional supplement under the brand name AminoPure through retail stores in multiple states in the United States and via importers and distributors in Japan, Taiwan and South Korea. Since inception, we have generated minimal revenues from the sale and promotion of NutreStore and AminoPure.

In May 2006, we formed Newfield Nutrition, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Emmaus Medical, that distributes L-glutamine as a nutritional supplement under the brand name AminoPure.

In October 2010, we formed EM Japan, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Emmaus Medical, that markets and sells AminoPure in Japan and other countries in Asia. EM Japan also manages our distributors in Japan and may also import other medical products and drugs in the future.

In November 2011, we formed EM Europe, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Emmaus Medical, whose primary focus is expanding our business in Europe.

In December 2016, we formed Emmaus Life Sciences Korea (“ELSK”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Emmaus Medical, whose primary focus is expanding our business in Korea.

Our corporate structure is illustrated below:

Emmaus Medical, LLC was organized on December 20, 2000. In October 2003, Emmaus Medical, LLC undertook a reorganization and merged with Emmaus Medical, which was originally incorporated in September 2003.

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 21, 2011, which we refer to as the Merger Agreement, by and among us, AFH Merger Sub, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, which we refer to as AFH Merger Sub, AFH Advisory and Emmaus Medical, Emmaus Medical merged with and into AFH Merger Sub on May 3, 2011 with Emmaus Medical continuing as the surviving entity, which we refer to as the Merger. Upon the closing of the Merger, we changed our name from “AFH Acquisition IV, Inc.” to “Emmaus Holdings, Inc.” Subsequently, on September 14, 2011, we changed our name from “Emmaus Holdings, Inc.” to “Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc.”

Table of Contents

Our future capital requirements are substantial and may increase beyond our current expectations depending on many factors, including, but not limited to: our success in commercializing EndariTM in the U.S. or elsewhere; the duration and results of the clinical trials for our other product candidates; unexpected delays or developments when seeking regulatory approvals; the time and cost in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and enforcing patent claims; current and future unexpected developments encountered in implementing our business development and commercialization strategies; the outcome of any future litigation; and further arrangements, if any, with collaborators.

Until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue, future cash requirements are expected to be financed through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. As of June 30, 2017, our accumulated deficit was $125.0 million and we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.1 million. Since inception we have had minimal revenues and have been required to rely on funding from sales of equity securities and debt financings and loans, including loans from related parties.

We also own a minority interest of less than 1% in CellSeed, a Japanese company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which is engaged in research and development of regenerative medicine products and the manufacture and sale of temperature-responsive cell culture equipment. In collaboration with CellSeed, we are engaged in research and development of cell sheet engineering regenerative medicine products.

On September 12, 2016, we entered into a Letter of Agreement with KPM and Hanil. In the Letter of Agreement, the parties agreed that KPM and Hanil would purchase $17 million and $3 million, respectively, of shares of our common stock at a price of $4.50 per share by September 30, 2016. In exchange, we agreed to invest $13 million and $1 million in future capital increases by KPM and Hanil, respectively, at prices based upon the trading prices of KPM and Hanil shares on KOSDAQ. The purchases of Emmaus shares by KPM and Hanil were completed in 2016.

Subsequent to the receipt of investments from KPM and Hanil, we completed the cross-investments with KPM and Hanil in which we purchased for an aggregate of $14 million a minority interest of 8.2% in KPM and of 0.8% in Hanil. KPM is principally engaged in the manufacture and distribution of surface treatment chemicals. Hanil is principally engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of vacuum coating systems. Both KPM and Hanil plan to expand their biopharma business.

On June 12, 2017, we entered into the MCAA with Telcon Holdings and Telcon. In accordance with the MCAA, the Company invested ₩36.0 billion KRW (approximately $31.8 million USD) to purchase 6,643,559 shares of Telcon’s common stock at a purchase price of ₩5,419 KRW (approximately $4.79 USD) per share. Upon consummation of the MCAA, the Company became Telcon’s largest shareholder owning approximately 10.3% of Telcon’s outstanding common shares.

On May 16, 2017, we terminated the Letter of Intent dated January 16, 2017, as amended (the “LOI”), between Emmaus and Generex Biotechnology Corporation (“Generex”).

The LOI provided for Generex’s acquisition of a controlling interest of the outstanding capital of the Company for a total consideration of $225,000,000, consisting of $10,000,000 in cash and $215,000,000 worth of shares of Generex common stock, in accordance with the terms and conditions therein.

The termination of the LOI was based on Generex’s failure to file an amendment to its restated certificate of incorporation effecting an increase in its authorized capital by May 1, 2017 and the parties’ inability to agree on a resolution of certain key financial accounting issues regarding the financial consolidation of Emmaus and Generex resulting from the transactions contemplated in the LOI, which prevented further negotiation and agreement on key material terms of the formal purchase agreement provided for in the LOI.

The LOI provided that if we terminate the LOI, we are required to refund all deposits paid by Generex to us within sixty days after the date of termination. Generex has paid us $4,000,000 in deposits under the LOI. We refunded $600,000 of the deposits in June and the remaining $3,400,000 in July 2017.

Other Possible Transactions

From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company engages in informal or formal discussions, and may enter into non-binding or binding letters of intent, with prospective investors and other companies regarding possible investments in the Company such as the mutual co-investments between the Company and KPM and Hanil completed in the fourth quarter of 2016. The Company currently is engaged in discussions, and has entered into non-binding letters of intent, with other companies regarding possible co-investments by us and the companies.

Table of Contents

Such discussions and letters of intent are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, and may not lead to definitive agreements regarding possible transactions. There also can be no assurance whether any such transaction will be undertaken or completed or, if undertaken and completed, on what terms.

Financial Overview

Revenue

Since our inception in 2000, we have had limited revenue from the sale of NutreStore, an FDA-approved prescription drug to treat SBS and AminoPure, a nutritional supplement. We have funded operations principally through the private placement of equity securities and debt financings. Our operations to date have been primarily limited to staffing, licensing and promoting products for SBS, outsourcing distribution and sales activities, developing and sponsoring clinical trials of Endari™ for SCD, manufacturing products and maintaining and improving our patent portfolio.

Currently, we generate revenue through the sale of NutreStore, L-glutamine powder for oral solution, as a treatment for SBS as well as AminoPure, a nutritional supplement. Pursuant to the exclusive sublicense agreement for US Patent No. 5,288,703 (“SBS Patent”), we were required to pay an annual royalty equal to 10% of adjusted gross sales of NutreStore to CATO Holding Company (“CATO”) through 2016. Management expects that any revenues generated from the sale of NutreStore and AminoPure will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the timing of orders and the amount of products sold.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold includes the raw materials, packaging, shipping and distribution costs of NutreStore and AminoPure.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development costs consist of expenditures for new products and technologies, which primarily involve fees paid to the contract research organization (“CRO”) that conducts the clinical trials of our product candidates, payroll-related expenses, study site payments, consultant fees, and activities related to regulatory filings, manufacturing development costs and other related supplies. The costs of later-stage clinical studies, such as Phase 2 and 3 trials, are generally higher than those of earlier stages of development, such as preclinical studies and Phase 1 trials. This is primarily due to the increased size, expanded scope, patient related healthcare and regulatory compliance costs, and generally longer duration of later-stage clinical studies.

The most significant clinical trial expenditures in prior years have been related to the CRO costs and the payments to study sites. The contract with the CRO is based on time and material expended, whereas the study site agreements are based on per patient costs as well as other pass-through costs, including, but not limited to, start-up costs and institutional review board fees. The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation and vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows. Payments under some of these contracts depend on factors such as the successful enrollment of patients and the completion of clinical trial milestones.

Future research and development expenses will depend on any new product candidates or technologies that we may introduce into our research and development pipeline. In addition, we cannot forecast with any degree of certainty which product candidates may be subject to future collaborations, when such arrangements will be secured, if at all, and to what degree, if any, such arrangements would affect our development plans and capital requirements.

At this time, due to the inherently unpredictable nature of the process for developing drugs, biologics and cell-based therapies and the interpretation of the regulatory requirements, we are unable to estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of costs which will be incurred in obtaining regulatory approval of Endari™ outside the U.S. and the continued development of our other preclinical and clinical programs. Clinical development timelines, the probability of success and development costs can differ materially from expectations and can vary widely. These and other risks and uncertainties relating to product development are described in the Annual Report under the headings “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Development of our Product Candidates,” “Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Reliance on Third Parties,” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Regulatory Approval of our Product Candidates and Other Legal Compliance Matters.”

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist principally of salaries and related costs, including share-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance, business development, information technology, marketing and legal functions. Other general and

Table of Contents

administrative expenses include facility costs, patent filing costs and professional fees and expenses for legal, consulting, auditing and tax services. Inflation has not had a material impact on our general and administrative expenses over the past two years.

Environmental Expenses

The cost of compliance with environmental laws has not been material over the past two years and any such costs are included in general and administrative costs.

Inventories

Inventories consist of finished goods and work-in-process and are valued on a first-in, first-out basis and at the lower of cost or market value. All of the raw material purchased during three months and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was from one vendor.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

Net Losses. Net losses increased by $8.6 million, or 275%, to $11.7 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in losses is primarily a result of increased other expenses and operating expenses, in each case as discussed below. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses and be unprofitable for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance that we will ever operate at a profit.

Revenues, Net. Net revenues decreased by $54,000, or 31%, to $119,000 from $173,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Combined revenues from our AminoPure, L-glutamine nutritional supplement product, and our NutreStore, L-glutamine powder for oral solution for treatment of SBS, decreased due to lower demands during these periods.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $38,000, or 45%, to $45,000 from $83,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Cost of goods sold includes costs for raw material, packaging, testing, shipping and costs related to scrapped inventory. All of the raw material purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was from one vendor. Cost of goods sold decreased due to decreased sales of AminoPure in Taiwan.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $0.6 million, or 105%, to $1.2 million from $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the regulatory consulting expenses incurred in preparation for the meeting with the FDA Advisory Committee on May 24, 2017. We expect continued research and development costs in 2017 to support work on marketing approvals outside the U.S.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses increased slightly by $5,000, or 5%, to $90,000 from $85,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Selling expenses include the costs for distribution and freight for NutreStore, as well as advertisement, travel and salaries and wages for AminoPure. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the salaries and wages of our sales force for AminoPure.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $1.2 million, or 56%, to $3.5 million from $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. General and administrative expenses include share-based compensation expenses, professional fees, office rent and payroll expenses. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $1.3 million in share-based compensation expense due to issuance of stock options.

Other Income and Expense. Total other expense increased by $6.7 million, or 2,197%, to $7.0 million expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $0.3 million in other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in amortization of discount of convertible notes and a negative change in the fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities of $5.2 million.

We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase for, among others, the following reasons:

· to build a sales and marketing team to commercialize Endari™ in the U.S.;

· as a result of increased payroll, expanded infrastructure and higher consulting, legal, accounting and investor relations costs, and director and officer insurance premiums associated with being a public company; and

Table of Contents

· to support research and development activities, which we expect to expand as we undertake to obtain marketing approval for Endari™ outside the U.S. and as development of our product candidates continues.

Six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

Net Losses. Net losses increased by $10.7 million, or 140%, to $18.3 million from $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in losses is primarily a result of increased other expenses and operating expenses, in each case as discussed below. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses and be unprofitable for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance that we will ever operate at a profit.

Revenues, Net. Net revenues decreased by $26,000, or 10%, to $226,000 from $252,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Combined revenues from our AminoPure, L-glutamine nutritional supplement product, and our NutreStore, L-glutamine powder for oral solution for treatment of SBS, decreased slightly during these periods.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $18,000, or 16%, to $93,000 from $111,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Cost of goods sold includes costs for raw material, packaging, testing, shipping and costs related to scrapped inventory. All of the raw material purchased during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was from one vendor. Cost of goods sold decreased due to decreased sales associated with AminoPure.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $0.9 million, or 80%, to $2.0 million from $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the regulatory consulting expenses incurred in preparation for the meeting with the FDA Advisory Committee on May 24, 2017. We expect continued research and development costs in 2017 to support work on marketing approvals outside the U.S.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses increased slightly by $13,000, or 7%, to $191,000 from $178,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Selling expenses include the costs for distribution and freight for NutreStore, as well as advertisement, travel and salaries and wages for AminoPure. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the salaries and wages of our sales force for AminoPure.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 39%, to $6.3 million from $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. General and administrative expenses include share-based compensation expenses, professional fees, office rent and payroll expenses. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $1.8 million in share-based compensation expense due to issuance of stock options.

Other Income and Expense. Total other expense increased by $8.0 million, or 416%, to $9.9 million expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $1.9 million in other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was primarily due to a $2.4 million increase in amortized discount of convertible notes and a negative change in the fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities of $5.6 million.

We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase for, among others, the following reasons:

· to build a sales and marketing team to commercialize Endari™ in the U.S.;

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Based on our losses to date, anticipated future revenue and operating expenses, debt repayment obligations and cash and cash equivalents balance of $5.1 million as of June 30, 2017, we do not have sufficient operating capital for our business without raising additional capital. We incurred a net loss of $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and had an accumulated deficit at June 30, 2017 of $125.0 million. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future as we incur expenses for the commercialization of Endari™ in the U.S., NDA submission activities for Endari™ outside the U.S., research costs for the corneal cell sheets using Cultured Autologous Oral Mucosal Epithelial Cell Sheet (“CAOMECS”) technology and the expansion of

corporate infrastructure, including costs associated with being a public reporting company and additional expenses that may be associated with pursuing a possible initial public offering. We have previously relied on unregistered equity offerings, debt financings and loans, including loans from related parties. As part of this effort, we have received various loans from officers, stockholders and other investors as discussed below. As of June 30, 2017, we had outstanding notes payable in an aggregate principal amount of $19.9 million, consisting of $5.9 million of non-convertible promissory notes and $14.0 million of convertible notes. Of the $19.9 million aggregate principal amount of notes outstanding as of June 30, 2017, approximately $19.3 million is either due on demand or will become due and payable within the next twelve months. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategies, including the commercialization of Endari™ and the development in the United States of CAOMECS-based cell sheet technology.

We have had recurring operating losses, have a significant amount of notes payable and other obligations due within the next years and projected operating losses including the expected costs relating to the commercialization of Endari™ that exceed both the existing cash balances and cash expected to be generated from operations for at least the next year. In order to meet our expected obligations, management intends to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings. In addition, we may seek to raise additional funds through collaborations with other companies and financing from other sources and a possible initial public offering. Additional funding may not be available in amounts or on terms which are acceptable to us, if at all. Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our cash burn rate for the first six months ended June 30, 2017 was approximately $0.4 million per month.

Our cash flow from operations is not adequate and our future capital requirements will be substantial and may increase beyond our current expectations depending on many factors including, but not limited to: our success in commercializing Endari™ in the U.S.; the number, duration and results of the clinical trials for our other product candidates; unexpected delays or developments in seeking regulatory approvals; the time and cost in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and enforcing patent claims; other unexpected developments encountered in implementing our business and commercialization strategies; the outcome of any future litigation; and further arrangements, if any, with collaborators. We will rely, in part, on sales of AminoPure and NutreStore. Revenues from both products are currently not significant and we are unsure whether sales of these products will increase. Until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue, future cash needs are expected to be financed through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, loans, including loans from related parties, or other sources, such as strategic partnership agreements and corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. Until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue, there can be no assurance of the availability of such capital on terms acceptable to us or at all.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and during the year ended December 31, 2016, we borrowed $1.3 million and $7.4 million, respectively, pursuant to convertible notes and non-convertible promissory notes, of which $12,000 and $2.2 million, respectively, have been issued to related parties. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the aggregate principal amounts outstanding under convertible notes and non-convertible promissory notes totaled $19.9 million and $18.3 million, respectively. The convertible notes and non-convertible promissory notes bear interest at rates ranging from 8% to 11% and, except for the 2011 convertible note listed below in the principal amount of $0.3 million, are unsecured. The net proceeds of the loans were used for working capital purposes.

Cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016

Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased by $7.0 million, or 157%, to positive net cash flow of $2.6 million from negative net cash flow of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This increase was primarily due to a $7.9 million increase of working capital and a $9.7 million increase in the non-cash adjustments to net loss, partially offset by a $10.7 million increase in net loss. The increase in non-cash adjustments to net loss was primarily attributable to: $5.6 million for the change in the fair value of warrant derivative liabilities, a $2.5 million increase in amortization of discount of convertible notes and a $1.8 million increase in share-based compensation.

Net cash used in investing activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities increased to $0.1 million from $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities included purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash from financing activities

Net cash flows from financing activities decreased by $3.0 million, or 70%, to $1.3 million from $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as a result of a $1.5 million decrease in proceeds of issuance of common stock and a $2.6 million decrease in proceeds from issuance of non-convertible promissory notes, partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in repayment of convertible and non-convertible promissory notes and a $0.5 million increase in proceeds from convertible notes payable issued.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. Due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to meet its current operating and capital expenses, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, as the continuation and expansion of its business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, successful and sufficient market acceptance of its products, and finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments, including those described below. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the present circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Refer to “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the Annual Report for our critical accounting policies. There have been no material changes in any of our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not required for a smaller reporting company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (“DCP”) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. DCP include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Table of Contents

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our DCP (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation and due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 described below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s DCP are not effective. Our management is working at remediating the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. However, we have not yet completed a full annual accounting cycle since December 31, 2016 to fully validate the remediation of the material weaknesses in our internal controls and the effectiveness of the Company’s DCP.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the Company entered into several material agreements which management had determined, at the time, were definitive. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Company entered into new discussions to re-negotiate certain terms in these agreements. The re-negotiation process led to the discovery that conditions exist where certain individuals at the senior management level were not communicating key details of significant amendments to certain material agreements to accounting and finance personnel in a timely manner for a comprehensive evaluation to ensure that the appropriate level of financial reporting and related disclosures on such amendments was performed. The untimely communication necessitated additional procedures to ensure the completeness of arrangements, including discussions with senior management regarding the status of any revisions to any arrangements in which the Company has entered and detailed checklists related to all existing arrangements with Telcon. Upon verbal confirmation with senior management that all outstanding arrangements were identified, accounting and finance personnel were able to appropriately evaluate and report on the accounting considerations for such amendments and arrangements. Other than this matter, there have been no significant changes in process controls during the quarter ended June 30, 2017. We will continue to assess our internal controls relating to our business and financial processes. We believe that we are continuing to take the necessary steps to monitor and maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting.

Material Weakness and Plan of Remediation

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Material weaknesses would permit information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits to not be recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

We conducted an evaluation pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our DCP as of December 31, 2016. This evaluation was conducted under the supervision (and with the participation) of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have identified the following control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2017, the first of which they have also determined to exist as of December 31, 2015 and 2016:

· We did not design and maintain effective controls over our DCP. Specifically, because of the continuance of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, initially identified in our evaluations of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, we did not design and maintain effective controls related to the application of GAAP on certain complex transactions, nor did we maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy of financial reporting for complex or unusual transactions and internal communication of significant transactions.

· We did not design and maintain effective controls over the identification and evaluation of accounting matters that may result from the Company entering into material agreements. Specifically, the internal communication process among members of management was determined to be insufficient to ensure that all agreements and significant terms and conditions are being properly communicated in a timely manner.

Our management and Board of Directors are committed to the remediation of the material weakness, as well as the continued improvement of our overall system of DCP. We are in the process of implementing measures to remediate the underlying causes of the control deficiencies that gave rise to the material weaknesses, which primarily include engaging additional and supplemental internal and external resources with the technical expertise in GAAP, as well as to implement new policies and procedures to provide more effective controls to track, process, analyze, and consolidate the financial data and reports.

We believe these measures, once implemented, will remediate the control deficiencies that gave rise to the material weaknesses. As we continue to evaluate and work to remediate these control deficiencies, we may determine that additional remedial measures are required.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On April 2, 2017, the Company refinanced a convertible note payable to a third party in the original principal amount of $462,993 with a new convertible note in the principal amount of $555,591 which bears interest at 10% per annum. The note has a two-year term. The principal amount plus any unpaid accrued interest due under the convertible note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.60 per share at any time during the term of the note upon the election of the holder.

On April 3, 2017, the Company refinanced a convertible note payable to a third party in the original principal amount of $272,640 with a new convertible note in the principal amount of $327,168 which bears interest at 10% per annum. The note is due on demand up to two years from the date of issuance. The principal amount plus any unpaid accrued interest due under the convertible note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.50 per share at any time during the term of the note upon the election of the holder.

On April 14, 2017, the Company refinanced a convertible note payable to a third party in the original principal amount of $3,579,447 with a new convertible note in the principal amount of $3,758,419 which bears interest at 10% per annum. The note has a six-month term with an option on the part of the holder to renew for up to eighteen months. The principal amount plus any unpaid accrued interest due under the convertible note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.50 per share at any time during the term of the note upon the election of the holder.

On May 30, 2017, the Company issued a convertible note to a third party in the principal amount of $1,000,000 which bears interest at 10% per annum. The note is due on demand up to one year from the date of issuance. If the Company completes a qualified public offering, the principal amount of the note will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the initial public offering price in the qualified public offering. The principal amount plus any unpaid accrued interest due under the convertible note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $7.60 per share at any time during the term of the note upon the election of the holder.

All such securities noted above were issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or Regulation D under the Securities Act or, in the case of refinancings and conversions, upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D because the issuances did not involve a “public offering.” The issuances were not a public offering based upon the following factors: (i) a limited number of securities were issued to a limited number of investors; (ii) there was no public solicitation; (iii) each investor was an “accredited investor” as such term is defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act; and (iv) the investment intent of the investors. No broker-dealers were used in connection with such sales of unregistered securities.
