A: Change Technology Partners, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Change"), is proposing to acquire all of the outstanding securities of Neurologix, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Neurologix"). The acquisition will be effected by the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change with and into Neurologix, with Neurologix surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change (the "Merger"). Upon completion of the Merger, Neurologix's corporate name will be Neurologix Research, Inc. Upon completion of the Merger and as part of the amendment to its certificate of incorporation, Change's corporate name will be "Neurologix, Inc." We sometimes refer to Change following completion of the Merger and the change of its corporate name as the "combined company." Q: HOW MANY SHARES OF CHANGE COMMON STOCK WILL BE ISSUED IN THE MERGER? A: The exact number of shares of common stock to be issued by Change will not be determined until immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. Change currently expects to issue approximately 391,275,156 shares of Change common stock in the Merger. Change will issue a press release approximately 48 hours prior to the special meeting announcing an updated estimate of the number of shares to be issued, based on the value of Change's Net Cash Assets at that time. No fractional shares will be issued. All fractional shares will be rounded to the nearest whole number for each shareholder on an aggregate basis. Q: WHAT WILL I RECEIVE IN THE MERGER? A: Change Stockholders: You will continue to hold the Change securities you currently own. Neurologix Stockholders: You will be entitled to receive a number of shares of the combined company's common stock, based upon the exchange ratio provided in the merger agreement, for each share of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock you own on the date of the closing of the Merger. If you are an option holder, you will receive replacement options based on the exchange ratio provided for in the merger agreement. Q: WILL I HAVE APPRAISAL RIGHTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER? A: Change Stockholders: Under Delaware law, Change stockholders do not have appraisal rights with respect to the Merger. Neurologix Stockholders: Yes. Under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, holders of Neurologix common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock have appraisal rights with respect to the Merger. Record holders of shares of Neurologix who follow the statutory procedures provided in Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, may have their shares appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and may be entitled to receive the "fair value" of those shares, which could be greater than, less than or the same as the value of the consideration to be received in the Merger. A copy of Section 262 is attached as Appendix E to this proxy statement and prospectus. Please also refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger -- Appraisal Rights." Q: WILL I BE ABLE TO FREELY RESELL THE SHARES OF CHANGE COMMON STOCK I RECEIVE IN THE MERGER? A: All shares of Change common stock received by Neurologix stockholders in connection with the Merger will be freely transferable under federal securities laws, except for shares received by persons who are deemed to be "affiliates" of Change or Neurologix for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), prior to the completion of the Merger. These shares may be resold only in transactions permitted by the resale provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act, or Rule 144 under the Securities Act in the case of persons who become affiliates of Neurologix, or as otherwise permitted under the Securities Act. Q: WHAT ARE THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE TRANSACTIONS TO ME? A: Change Stockholders: There will be no tax consequences to you as stockholders as a result of the Merger. Neurologix Stockholders: The Merger is structured as a tax free reorganization under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, U.S. holders of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock will not recognize 1 any taxable gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the receipt of Change common stock in the Merger. Each Neurologix stockholder's aggregate tax basis and holding period with respect to the shares of Change common stock it will receive in the Merger will be the same as that for the shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock that will be surrendered in exchange for Change common stock. Q: WHAT STOCKHOLDER APPROVALS ARE NEEDED? A: Change Stockholders: The Merger proposal and the proposal relating to the amendments to the certificate of incorporation must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Change common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock voting together as a single class. A broker non-vote or an abstention has the same effect as a vote against the Merger and charter amendment proposals. Neurologix Stockholders: The Merger has been approved by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Neurologix's capital stock voting together as a single class. Q: WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE COMBINED COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK WILL BE HELD BY EXISTING HOLDERS OF CAPITAL STOCK AFTER THE MERGER? A: It is anticipated that existing Change securityholders will hold approximately 32% of the shares of the combined company's outstanding common stock after the Merger.

Change will issue a press release approximately 48 hours prior to the special meeting announcing an updated estimate of the number of shares to be issued, based on the value of Change's Net Cash Assets at that time. Q: WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE COMBINED COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK WILL BE HELD BY FORMER NEUROLOGIX STOCKHOLDERS?

THE COMPANIES CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. 537 Steamboat Road Greenwich, Connecticut 06830 (203) 661-5233 Arinco Computer Systems Inc., the predecessor to Change, was incorporated on March 31, 1978. Arinco Computer Systems was organized principally to serve its subsidiary operations, which included the sale of telecommunications equipment and services and the retail sales of computers. From 1985 to March 2000, Arinco Computer Systems had no business operations. In March 2000, an investor group acquired control of Arinco Computer Systems for the purpose of using Arinco Computer Systems to sell business consulting services. In September 2000, Arinco Computer Systems Inc. merged with and into Change Technology Partners, Inc. (f/k/a Pangea Internet, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary. All of the stockholders of Arinco Computer Systems became stockholders of Change, and Change redomesticated from New Mexico to Delaware. Until approximately July 2001, Change provided a broad range of consulting services, including e-services and technology strategy, online branding, web architecture and design, systems integration, systems architecture and outsourcing. The Change board of directors then voted to sell or wind down its business operations, other than those conducted by its only operating subsidiary, Canned Interactive, and use its assets to invest in and develop new businesses. Canned Interactive designs and produces interactive media, primarily for the entertainment industry. On September 30, 2002, the Change board of directors announced the adoption of a plan of liquidation and dissolution but continued to review suitable business opportunities. On June 30, 2003, Change sold Canned Interactive. Currently, the assets of Change primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. NEUROLOGIX, INC.

Based on the board's recommendation, the holders of a majority of Neurologix's outstanding shares of capital stock voting together as a single class executed a written consent approving the Merger on August 13, 2003. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and 5 prospectus entitled "The Merger -- Recommendation of Neurologix's Board of Directors; Factors Considered by Neurologix's Board of Directors in Relation to the Merger." FACTORS CONSIDERED BY THE NEUROLOGIX BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Neurologix board of directors considered a number of factors in approving the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and recommending them to Neurologix stockholders, including those listed below: - the financial resources of the combined company will enhance Neurologix's ability to conduct a Phase I clinical trial of gene therapy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease; - becoming a company with publicly traded securities may enhance the ability of Neurologix to raise additional capital in the future for its research and development efforts; - the overall terms of the merger agreement and the other transaction agreements; - the time and resources that would be required to obtain comparable alternative financing, if available; and - the qualification of the Merger as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal tax purposes. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger -- Recommendation of Neurologix's Board of Directors; Factors Considered by Neurologix's Board of Directors in Relation to the Merger." THE MERGER AND RELATED MATTERS THE MERGER In the Merger, Subcorp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change, will merge with and into Neurologix, and Neurologix will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change. All of Neurologix's stockholders will be entitled to receive Change common stock in exchange for their Neurologix capital stock. Upon completion of the Merger, Change will change its corporate name to "Neurologix, Inc." and will decrease the par value of its common stock from $0.01 to $0.001 per share. The merger agreement is attached to this proxy statement and prospectus as Appendix A. Amendment No. 1 to the merger agreement is attached to this proxy statement and prospectus as Appendix B. References to the merger agreement in this proxy statement and prospectus refer to the merger agreement as amended by Amendment No. 1 unless the context otherwise requires.

Please also refer to the sections of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger" and "The Merger Agreement." RESULTS OF THE MERGER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS At the effective time of the Merger and assuming the conversion of Neurologix securities as set forth in the voting agreement, as described below, each share of Neurologix common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be converted into the right to receive a proportionate number of shares of Change common stock according to the exchange ratio in the merger agreement. No fractional shares will be issued. Fractional shares will be rounded to the nearest whole number for each shareholder on an aggregate basis. The holders of Change securities will continue to hold their Change securities. It is anticipated that, upon the closing of the Merger, the existing Change stockholders and the existing Neurologix stockholders will hold approximately 32% and 68% respectively of the combined company's outstanding common stock. The exact percentages will be determined immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.

BOARD COMPOSITION The board of directors of the combined company will consist initially of 6 directors divided into three classes of directors with the directors in each class serving staggered three-year terms. Each class will consist, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the directors constituting the entire board.

Either Change or Neurologix may terminate the merger agreement: - if any law or regulation exists that makes consummation of the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibits the Merger; - if the Merger is not consummated on or before February 15, 2004; - if at or before the completion of the closing of the Merger, Change, Subcorp or Neurologix discovers that any representation or warranty made in the merger agreement for its benefit is untrue in any material respect under certain circumstances; - if (i) at Change's special meeting the requisite vote of Change's stockholders to approve the Merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by it and the amendments to Change's certificate of incorporation have not been obtained or (ii) the Change board of directors withdraws its recommendation to its stockholders to approve the Merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement; - if the other party defaults in the performance of any material obligation under the merger agreement where the default would reasonably be expected to prevent Change or Neurologix, as applicable, from obtaining a material portion of the benefits intended by the parties to be derived by Change or Neurologix, as applicable, from the merger agreement, with limited exception; or - in the event that any of the conditions to a respective party's obligation to close the Merger have not been satisfied or waived by February 15, 2004 or in the event that any such condition cannot possibly be satisfied prior to February 15, 2004. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger Agreement -- Termination of the Merger Agreement." TERMINATION FEES Under the merger agreement, if Neurologix or Change terminates the merger agreement because, at Change's special meeting, the requisite vote of Change's stockholders to approve the Merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and the amendments to Change's certificate of incorporation is not obtained, then upon termination, Change will pay to Neurologix $225,000 in cash. However, if within 120 days after such termination, Change acquires or offers, or makes a proposal or 8 agrees to acquire in any manner, whether directly or indirectly, any business or company (including, but not limited to, the assets, capital stock or ownership interests thereof) then Neurologix shall be entitled to $1,100,000 in cash. If Neurologix or Change terminates the merger agreement in connection with Change's entry into a competing transaction, or if the Change board of directors withdraws its recommendation to its stockholders to approve the Merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, then upon such termination or withdrawal, Change will pay to Neurologix an amount equal to $1,100,000 in cash. Change may offset the payment against the unpaid principal of the $1,100,000 loan it provided to Neurologix under the merger agreement. In the event that the merger agreement is terminated such that Neurologix would be entitled to receive from Change both of the payments described in the preceding two paragraphs, Neurologix will only be entitled to the $1,100,000 payment described above. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger Agreement -- Expenses and Termination Fees." NON-SOLICITATION PROVISIONS Under the merger agreement, both Change and Neurologix are prohibited from soliciting, entering into or providing non-public information with respect to a competing acquisition proposal. However, Change may consider any unsolicited third-party competing transaction if the Change board of directors determines, after consultation with its financial advisor and legal counsel, that (i) such third party has submitted to Change a competing transaction which has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in a superior proposal and (ii) the failure to participate in such process would constitute a breach of the Change board of directors' fiduciary duties under applicable law. Additionally, the merger agreement permits Neurologix to raise up to $1.0 million from the sale of additional equity between August 13, 2003 and the date of the closing of the Merger. Neurologix currently does not intend to exercise this right to raise additional capital. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger Agreement -- Material Covenants -- Non-Solicitation of Competing Transactions." INTERIM OPERATIONS COVENANTS Change and Neurologix have agreed to limitations on their operations between the signing of the merger agreement and the effective time of the Merger. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger Agreement -- Material Covenants -- Interim Operations of Change, Subcorp and Neurologix." LOAN BY CHANGE TO NEUROLOGIX Under the merger agreement, Change agreed to loan to Neurologix the principal amount of $1,100,000, secured by all of the assets of Neurologix. On August 13, 2003, in connection with the execution of the merger agreement, Change funded a loan of $750,000 to Neurologix. On November 14, 2003, Change, Neurologix and Subcorp amended the merger agreement to, among other things, increase the principal amount of the loan from $750,000 to $1,100,000. On December 18, 2003, Change funded the additional $350,000. Interest on the unpaid principal accrues at the rate of 4% per year.

INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER The Merger is intended to be free of U.S. federal income tax to holders of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock who receive Change common stock in exchange for Neurologix common stock 9 or Series B convertible preferred stock in connection with the Merger. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger." STOCK EXCHANGE LISTING Change's common stock is traded, and will continue to be traded, on the over-the-counter market.

The combined company's common stock will be quoted on the OTC electronic bulletin board under a new symbol. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "Market Price and Dividend Policy -- Change." ANTICIPATED ACCOUNTING TREATMENT The acquisition is anticipated to be accounted for as a reverse acquisition. The assets and liabilities of Neurologix will be recorded at their historical carrying values and the assets and liabilities of Change will be recorded at their fair values, which approximate historical values. The reported financial condition and results of operations of Neurologix after the Merger will reflect these values, but will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of Change. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger -- Accounting Treatment." COMPARISON OF STOCKHOLDERS' RIGHTS The certificates of incorporation and bylaws of Neurologix and Change differ. As a result, Neurologix's stockholders will have different rights as stockholders of Change from those they have now. Change's stockholders will have substantially the same rights as they currently have, as modified by the proposed amendments to Change's certificate of incorporation. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "Comparison of the Rights of the Holders of Neurologix Common Stock or Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the Holders of Change Common Stock." 10 SUMMARY SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL DATA OF CHANGE The table below presents Change's selected historical financial data for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2003. The selected historical financial data for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999 have been derived from audited financial statements not included in this proxy statement and prospectus. The selected historical financial data for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 have been derived from audited financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement and prospectus. The audit opinion to these financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that states that Change adopted a plan of liquidation and dissolution which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty. The audit opinion also contains an explanatory paragraph that refers to changes in Change's method of accounting for goodwill and other intangibles. The selected historical financial data for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2003 have been derived from unaudited condensed financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement and prospectus. The unaudited condensed financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the unaudited interim periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. On June 30, 2003, Change sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of its Canned Interactive subsidiary. Accordingly, the operations of Canned for all periods presented have been reclassed into a one-line presentation and are included in "Income (loss) from discontinued operations."

RISK FACTORS The transactions described in this proxy statement and prospectus involve substantial risks. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "Risk Factors" immediately following this summary for a discussion of certain risks relating to the proposed transactions. 15 RISK FACTORS Change stockholders voting in favor of the Merger and the proposals related to the Merger effectively will be choosing to combine the businesses of the two companies. If the Merger is consummated, Neurologix stockholders will become investors in Change common stock. This combination and investment involve some risks. You should carefully consider the information below as well as all other information provided to you or incorporated by reference in this proxy statement and prospectus in deciding whether to adopt the merger agreement and approve the related proposals, including information in the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements." RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE COMBINED COMPANY'S BUSINESS BECAUSE NEUROLOGIX IS A COMPANY WITH A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY, IT IS DIFFICULT TO PREDICT THE COMBINED COMPANY'S FUTURE GROWTH AND OPERATING RESULTS. Neurologix's limited operating history makes predicting the combined company's future growth and operating results extremely difficult. Neurologix was incorporated in Delaware in 1999. You should consider the risks and uncertainties that a company with a limited existence will face in the rapidly evolving market for gene-based therapy technologies and products. In particular, you should consider that Neurologix has not demonstrated that it can: - discover gene therapies that will be effective in treating Parkinson's disease or any other disease; - obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to commercialize product candidates that it may develop in the future; - manufacture, or arrange for third-parties to manufacture, future product candidates in a manner that will enable the company to be profitable; - attract, retain and manage a large, diverse staff of physicians and researchers; - establish many of the business functions necessary to operate, including sales, marketing, administrative and financial functions, and establish appropriate financial controls; - develop relationships with third-party collaborators to market and exploit the technologies that Neurologix may develop; - make, use and sell future product candidates without infringing upon third party intellectual property rights; - secure intellectual property protection of the company's future product candidates; or - respond effectively to competitive pressures. In addition, if the pending Phase I clinical trial is unsuccessful, future operations and profitability will be significantly adversely affected. If the combined company cannot accomplish these goals, its business may not succeed. NEUROLOGIX'S TECHNOLOGIES ARE IN EARLY STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT AND NO REVENUES HAVE BEEN GENERATED FROM THE SALE OF ANY PRODUCT BASED ON ITS TECHNOLOGIES. Neurologix's technologies are in early stages of development and, to date, Neurologix has not generated any revenue from sales of products or developed any future product candidates. Even if the combined company obtains regulatory approval for a future product candidate, it may not be successful in engaging collaborative partners to finance and manage the sales and marketing of such a product. As a result of those and other factors, no assurance can be provided that the combined company will be able to generate revenue from sales of any future product candidates or otherwise successfully commercially exploit its technologies. THE COMBINED COMPANY PRESENTLY INTENDS TO RELY ON STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS WITH THIRD PARTIES TO DEVELOP ITS TECHNOLOGIES AND TEST AND COMMERCIALIZE ANY FUTURE PRODUCT CANDIDATE. The combined company intends to develop strategic relationships with third parties to finance research and development costs, manufacture (or assist with the manufacturing) and market any future product candidates (including wholly or partially 16 financing the costs of marketing, sales and distribution). Given the high cost of funding clinical trials, commercializing a proposed product and obtaining governmental approval, Neurologix believes that successful development and commercialization of its technologies and future product candidates will depend in large part on the establishment of one or more of these strategic relationships. There is no assurance that the combined company will be able to negotiate any agreements with such third parties on terms that are acceptable to it, or at all. In addition, the failure to raise additional capital in the future could put the combined company at a disadvantage when negotiating such agreements with other companies. Additionally, Neurologix cannot guarantee that such third parties will not also independently develop competitive technologies and products. NEUROLOGIX HAS A HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES AND THE COMBINED COMPANY MAY NEVER BE PROFITABLE. Neurologix has incurred operating losses since its inception in 1999 as it has been engaged primarily in research and development activities. Specifically, Neurologix reported a cumulative net loss of approximately $5.1 million through September 30, 2003, and a net loss of approximately $1.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002 and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. As of December 31, 2002 and September 30, 2003, Neurologix's accumulated deficit was approximately $3.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively, with working capital of $1.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Because it may take years to develop, test and obtain regulatory approval for a gene-based therapy product before it can be sold, the combined company likely will continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the combined company may never be profitable and, if it becomes profitable, it may be unable to sustain profitability. PRE-CLINICAL TESTING AND CLINICAL TRIALS REQUIRED FOR FUTURE PRODUCT CANDIDATES WILL BE EXPENSIVE AND TIME-CONSUMING AND THEIR OUTCOME IS UNCERTAIN. The industry in which the combined company will compete is subject to stringent regulation by a wide range of regulatory authorities. The combined company may not obtain regulatory approval for any future product candidates it develops. To market a pharmaceutical product in the United States rigorous preclinical testing and clinical trials of the product must be completed and an extensive regulatory approval process implemented by the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. To date, neither the FDA nor any other regulatory agency has approved a gene therapy product for sale in the United States. Satisfaction of regulatory requirements typically takes many years, is dependent upon the type, complexity and novelty of the product and requires the expenditure of substantial resources. The combined company may encounter delays or rejections in the regulatory approval process resulting from additional governmental regulation or changes in FDA policy during the period of product development, clinical trials and FDA regulatory review. Failure to comply with applicable FDA or other applicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, total or partial suspension of production or injunction, as well as other regulatory action against the combined company's future product candidates or the combined company itself. If regulatory approval of a future product candidate is granted, such approval will be limited to those disease indications for which the future product candidate has been demonstrated to be safe and effective through clinical trials. The FDA also strictly regulates the promotion and labeling of pharmaceutical products after approval. Outside the United States, the ability to market a product is also contingent upon receiving clearances from appropriate foreign regulatory authorities. The non-U.S. regulatory approval process includes all of the risks associated with FDA clearance described above. The combined company will face the risks of failure involved in developing therapies based on new technologies. The estimated aggregate cost of completing the pending Phase I clinical trial of Neurologix's initial product candidate for treating Parkinson's disease is $1 million. This trial may not be successful. The combined company will also need to conduct significant additional research and animal testing, referred to as preclinical testing, before clinical trials involving other future product candidates can be conducted. It may take many years to complete preclinical testing and clinical trials and failure could occur at any stage of testing. Acceptable results in early testing or trials may not be repeated in later tests. Whether any products in preclinical testing or early stage clinical trials will become approved products is unknown. Before applications can be filed with the FDA for product approval, it must be demonstrated that a particular future product candidate is safe and effective. The combined company's failure to adequately demonstrate the safety and efficacy of future product candidates would prevent the FDA from approving them. The combined 17 company's product development costs will increase if it experiences delays in testing or regulatory approvals or if it becomes necessary to perform more or larger clinical trials than planned. If the delays are significant, they could negatively affect the combined company's financial results and the commercial prospects for future product candidates. IF FUTURE PRODUCT CANDIDATES EMPLOYING THE COMBINED COMPANY'S TECHNOLOGIES DO NOT ACHIEVE SIGNIFICANT MARKET ACCEPTANCE, ITS BUSINESS WILL SUFFER. The combined company's future success depends upon health care administrators and providers, patients and third-party payors' (including, without limitation, health insurance companies, Medicaid and Medicare) acceptance of its products. Market acceptance will depend on numerous factors, many of which are outside the combined company's control, including: - the safety and efficacy of future product candidates, as demonstrated in clinical trials; - favorable regulatory approval and product labeling; - the frequency of product use; - the availability, safety, efficacy and ease of use of alternative therapies; - the price of future product candidates relative to alternative therapies; and - the availability of third-party reimbursement. Unanticipated side effects, patient discomfort, defects or unfavorable publicity concerning any of the combined company's future product candidates, or any other product incorporating technology similar to that used by future product candidates, could have a material adverse effect on the combined company's ability to commercialize its products or achieve market acceptance. ADVERSE EVENTS IN THE FIELD OF GENE THERAPY MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF, AND THE COMBINED COMPANY'S ABILITY TO OBTAIN REGULATORY APPROVAL FOR, FUTURE PRODUCT CANDIDATES. Patient complications that may occur in gene-based clinical trials conducted by the combined company and other companies and the resulting publicity surrounding them, as well as any other serious adverse events in the field of gene therapy that may occur in the future, may result in greater governmental regulation of future product candidates and potential regulatory delays relating to the testing or approval of them. Even with the requisite approval, the commercial success of the combined company's product candidates will depend in part on public acceptance of the use of gene therapies for the prevention or treatment of human disease. Public attitudes may be influenced by claims that gene therapy is unsafe, and gene therapy may not gain the acceptance of the public or the medical community. Negative public reaction to gene therapy could result in greater governmental regulation, stricter clinical trial oversight and commercial product labeling requirements of gene therapies and could negatively affect demand for any products the combined company may develop. NEUROLOGIX HAS NO MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES OR EXPERIENCE. Neurologix does not have any experience in manufacturing products for commercial sale and if the combined company is not successful in engaging a third-party to manufacture its products, no assurance can be provided that it will be able to: - develop and implement large-scale manufacturing processes and purchase needed equipment and machinery on favorable terms; - hire and retain skilled personnel to oversee manufacturing operations; - avoid design and manufacturing defects; or - develop and maintain a manufacturing facility in compliance with governmental regulations, including the FDA's good manufacturing practices. The combined company, or third-party manufacturers that it contracts with to manufacture any future product candidate, must receive FDA approval before producing clinical material or commercial products. The combined company's future product candidates may compete with other products for access to third-party manufacturing facilities and may be subject to delays in manufacture if third party manufacturers give priority to products other than the combined company's future product candidates. The combined company may be 18 unable to manufacture commercial-scale quantities of gene-based therapy products, or any quantities at all. Failure to successfully manufacture products in commercial-scale quantities, and on a timely basis, would prevent the combined company from achieving its business objectives. THE COMBINED COMPANY WILL BE DEPENDENT ON ITS KEY PHYSICIANS AND RESEARCHERS. The combined company's future success depends, to a significant degree, on the skills, experience and efforts of Neurologix's current key physicians and researchers, including Dr. Matthew J. During and Dr. Michael G. Kaplitt. If either Dr. During or Dr. Kaplitt were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, it is likely that the combined company's business, financial condition, operating results and future prospects would be materially adversely affected. THE COMBINED COMPANY'S SUCCESS DEPENDS ON ITS ABILITY TO PROTECT ITS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. The combined company's ability to commercialize its product candidates will depend, in large measure, on its ability to protect those products and its technology through U.S. and foreign patents. There is no assurance that any of the combined company's product candidates or technologies will be patentable, that any pending patent applications will result in issued patents, or that Neurologix's issued patents, if challenged, will be held to be valid or enforceable or will be interpreted to provide the combined company with meaningful protection. Consequently, there is no assurance that the combined company's patents will prevent other companies from developing similar or therapeutically equivalent products, or that other companies will not be issued patents that may prevent the manufacture, use or sale of its products or require it to pay significant licensing fees in order to market its products. From time to time, the combined company may need to obtain licenses to patents and other proprietary rights held by third parties in order to develop, manufacture and market product candidates. If the combined company is unable to obtain these licenses on commercially reasonable terms and in a timely manner, then its ability to commercially exploit such future product candidates will be inhibited or prevented. Neurologix also relies on a combination of trade secret and copyright laws, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, and other protective measures to protect its intellectual property rights. The combined company cannot be certain that these measures will provide meaningful protection of its trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information. The laws of foreign countries may not protect the combined company's intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. The combined company cannot assure you that it will be able to protect its intellectual property rights. OTHER COMPANIES MAY CLAIM THAT THE COMBINED COMPANY'S TECHNOLOGIES INFRINGE ON THEIR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. Because of the complex and difficult legal and factual questions that relate to patent positions in the combined company's industry, no assurance can be provided that its future product candidates or technologies will not be found to infringe upon the intellectual property or proprietary rights of others. Third parties may claim that future product candidates or the combined company's technologies infringe on their patents, copyrights, trademarks or other proprietary rights and demand that it cease development or marketing of those products or technology or pay license fees. The combined company may not be able to avoid costly patent infringement litigation, which will divert the attention of management away from the development of new products and the operation of its business. No assurance can be provided that the combined company would prevail in any such litigation. If the combined company is found to have infringed on a third party's intellectual property rights it may be liable for money damages, encounter significant delays in bringing products to market or be precluded from manufacturing particular future product candidates or using particular technology. THE COMBINED COMPANY MAY FACE PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS RELATED TO THE USE OR MISUSE OF FUTURE PRODUCT CANDIDATES EMPLOYING ITS TECHNOLOGY. Clinical trials of future product candidates, and any subsequent sales of products employing the combined company's technology, may involve injuries to persons using those products as a result of mislabeling, misuse or product failure. Product liability insurance is expensive. Although Neurologix has purchased product liability insurance to cover claims made during the expected duration of the ongoing Phase I clinical trials, there can be no assurance that this insurance will be available to the combined company in the future on satisfactory terms, if at all. A successful product liability claim or series of claims brought against 19 the combined company in excess of any insurance coverage that it may obtain in the future could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. THE COMBINED COMPANY WILL FACE INTENSE COMPETITION AND RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE. There is substantial competition to improve existing treatments and develop new treatments for Parkinson's disease and other central nervous system disorders, some of which involve gene-based therapies. For example, companies such as Cell Genesys (through its Ceregene subsidiary) and Avigen have announced research and development efforts involving gene-based therapies for Parkinson's disease. Some of the companies conducting research and development in this area are large pharmaceutical and medical device companies and other companies that have far greater financial and other resources than those available to the combined company. Further, the biotechnology industry is highly competitive and rapidly evolving, significant developments in the combined company's industry likely will continue at a rapid pace. There can be no assurance that any of the combined company's future product candidates will have advantages over alternative products and technologies that may be significant enough to cause health care providers to purchase the combined company's future product candidates or technologies. THE COMBINED COMPANY WILL REQUIRE SUBSTANTIAL ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO CONTINUE ITS BUSINESS, WHICH IT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS, OR AT ALL. The success of the combined company's business depends on a positive outcome in the pending Phase I clinical trial and its ability to develop future product candidates, put those future product candidates through rigorous and time-consuming clinical testing, and obtain regulatory approval for and manufacture those future product candidates. The combined company will require substantial additional capital in the future to execute its business plan. The exact amount of the combined company's future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, some of which are not within the combined company's control, including the progress of its research and development efforts, the costs of testing and manufacturing future product candidates, and changes in governmental regulation. Additional capital may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If the combined company is unable to raise adequate additional capital on acceptable terms, it will be forced to curtail or cease its planned product development. THE COMBINED COMPANY'S OPERATIONS WILL INVOLVE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND WILL BE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS AND REGULATIONS. The combined company's research and development processes may involve the use of hazardous materials, including chemicals and radioactive and biological materials. The risk of accidental contamination or discharge or any resultant injury from these materials cannot be completely eliminated. Federal, state and local laws and regulations govern the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of these materials. The combined company could be subject to civil damages in the event of an improper or unauthorized release of, or exposure of individuals to, such hazardous materials. In addition, claimants may sue the combined company for injury or contamination that results from its use or the use by third parties of these materials and the combined company's liability may exceed its total assets. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations may be expensive and current or future environmental regulations may impair the combined company's research, development or production efforts. RISKS RELATED TO THE MERGER CHANGE MAY NOT OBTAIN THE REQUISITE STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL NECESSARY TO CONSUMMATE THE MERGER. The Merger will not be consummated if Change fails to obtain the required approval of its stockholders. THE COMBINED COMPANY MAY BE UNABLE TO REALIZE THE BENEFITS ANTICIPATED BY CHANGE AND NEUROLOGIX. The Merger involves the integration of two companies that have previously operated independently. There can be no assurances that the benefits expected from such integration will be realized. Unforeseen liabilities in winding down Change's operations may result in a reduction in the capital available for the ongoing operations of the combined company. Incurring unexpected costs or delays in connection with such integration could have a material adverse effect on the combined company's business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, if the combined company's future product candidates and other business ventures do not provide adequate returns, Change and its stockholders may have been better off liquidating Change rather than participating in the Merger. 20 RISKS RELATED TO THE COMBINED COMPANY'S CAPITAL STRUCTURE A SMALL NUMBER OF STOCKHOLDERS WILL EXERCISE SIGNIFICANT CONTROL OVER THE COMBINED COMPANY'S AFFAIRS. Following the closing, (i) Palisade Private Partnership, L.P. is expected to beneficially own approximately 172,519,415 shares, or 30.33%, of the combined company's outstanding common stock; (ii) Auckland Technology Enabling Corporation is expected to beneficially own approximately 92,154,169 shares, or 16.20%, of the combined company's outstanding common stock; and (iii) Zenith Partners is expected to beneficially own approximately 58,452,073 shares, or 10.28%, of the combined company's common stock. These shareholders will be able to exert significant influence over matters requiring approval by the combined company's stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions. Such influence could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with the combined company. Additionally, Medtronic International, Ltd. is expected to beneficially own approximately 22,754,111 shares, or 4.00%, shares of the combined company's outstanding common stock. Pursuant to certain agreements entered into in connection with its investment in Neurologix, Medtronic (a) has a right of first refusal with respect to new issuances of Neurologix securities, subject to limited exceptions, (b) has the right to designate directors of Neurologix and (c) has a right of first refusal with respect to one patent application owned by Neurologix in the event that Neurologix intends to sell or license its rights in the patent application. Following the Merger, Medtronic's right of first refusal with respect to new issuances of Neurologix securities will terminate. SHARES OF CHANGE'S COMMON STOCK HAVE BEEN THINLY TRADED IN THE PAST. Although a trading market for Change common stock exists, the trading volume has not been significant, and an active trading market for the common stock may not continue. As a result of the thin trading market or "float" for Change's common stock, the market price for the combined company's common stock may fluctuate significantly more than the stock market as a whole. Without an active public trading market, the combined company's common stock is less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership. As a result, the trading price of the combined company's common stock may be more volatile, and an investor may be unable to liquidate his investment in the combined company. Trading of a relatively small volume of the combined company's common stock may have a greater impact on the trading price for the combined company's stock than would be the case if its trading volume were larger. Change cannot predict the prices at which the combined company's common stock will trade in the future. 21 SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Any statements in this proxy statement and prospectus about Change's, Neurologix's or the combined company's expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and are forward-looking statements.

If, for any reason, the Merger is not consummated, nether proposal 1 nor proposal 2 will be effected. RECORD DATE; QUORUM; REQUIRED VOTE; SHARES OUTSTANDING AND ENTITLED TO VOTE The Change board of directors has fixed the close of business on , 2004 as the record date for the Change special meeting. Accordingly, only holders of Change common stock or Series A convertible preferred stock on the record date will be entitled to vote at the Change special meeting and any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting. At the record date, shares of Change common stock and 645 shares of Change Series A convertible preferred stock were outstanding and entitled to vote. The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of these outstanding shares is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Change special meeting. Each share of Change common stock or Series A convertible preferred stock is entitled to one vote with respect to each matter to be voted on at the special meeting. The vote required for the adoption of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by it is the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Change common stock and Series A 23 convertible preferred stock, voting together as a single class, entitled to vote on such adoption, provided a quorum is present. FOR THIS PROPOSAL, AN ABSTENTION OR A BROKER NON-VOTE WILL HAVE THE EFFECT OF A "NO" VOTE. The vote required for the approval of the proposal to amend Change's certificate of incorporation is the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Change common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock, voting together as a single class, entitled to vote on such amendments, provided a quorum is present. FOR THIS PROPOSAL, AN ABSTENTION OR A BROKER NON-VOTE WILL HAVE THE EFFECT OF A "NO" VOTE. Both the merger proposal and the proposal to amend Change's certificate of incorporation must be approved in order for the Merger to occur and for the amendment of Change's certificate of incorporation to be given effect. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT As of the record date, the directors and executive officers of Change and their affiliates beneficially owned approximately 33.5 million of the outstanding shares of Change common stock.

Upon completion of the Merger, Change will change its corporate name to "Neurologix, Inc." For more information regarding the terms of the Merger, please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger Agreement." BACKGROUND OF THE MERGER On September 30, 2002, the Change board of directors announced the adoption of a plan of liquidation and dissolution but continued to review suitable business opportunities. In early April 2003, Michael Gleason contacted Steven Berman and Martin Berman of Palisade Private Partnership, L.P. in connection with a proposed transaction with Neurologix Inc. On April 28, 2003, Michael Gleason met with Steven Berman, Martin Berman and Mark Hoffman of Palisade Private Partnership, L.P. and Drs. Martin Kaplitt and Mathew During of Neurologix, to discuss a proposed transaction with Neurologix. Michael Gleason agreed to discuss with William Avery, the then chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors of Change, a proposed transaction with Neurologix. In May 2003, Michael Gleason and William Avery made several trips to the offices of Neurologix and participated in conference calls with representatives of Neurologix to discuss the principal business terms of the proposed transaction. On May 27, 2003, a meeting of the Neurologix board of directors was held to review the principal terms of the letter of intent for the proposed transaction with Change. Following a discussion of the proposed terms of the transaction, the board adopted and approved the letter of intent subject to due diligence and other conditions contained in the letter of intent. On June 10, 2003, Change and Neurologix entered into a letter of intent reflecting the principal business terms of the proposed transaction. During the next several weeks, both companies conducted legal and financial diligence and were afforded opportunities to discuss any issue with management and legal counsel. Change and Neurologix also began negotiations of the transaction agreements. On June 10, 2003, the members of Neurologix board of directors executed written consents approving a modification of the letter of intent. On July 30, 2003, Change engaged BNY Capital Markets, Inc. to act as the financial advisor to the board of directors of Change in connection with the proposed transaction. On August 8, 2003, a meeting of the Change board of directors was held. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. rendered to the board its oral opinion that the Merger is fair from a financial point of view to Change stockholders. On August 8, 2003, representatives of Change and Neurologix and their respective legal counsel held a conference call to finalize outstanding issues. On August 8, 2003, a meeting of the Neurologix board of directors was held to review the terms of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated therein. Following a discussion of the principal terms of the transactions, the board adopted and approved the merger agreement and the ancillary agreements and determined to recommend that the merger agreement be approved and adopted by Neurologix's stockholders. On August 11, 2003, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. rendered its written opinion that the Merger is fair from a financial point of view to Change stockholders. The Change board of directors then approved the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated therein and determined that it is advisable to, and in the best interest of, Change stockholders. On August 13, 2003, Neurologix's stockholders holding 86.1% of the outstanding shares of Neurologix common stock, 100% of the outstanding shares of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock, and 79.2% of the outstanding shares of Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock and 91.4% of the outstanding shares of Neurologix common stock, initial series of convertible preferred stock and Series B 26 convertible preferred stock voting together as a single class delivered written consents to Neurologix approving and adopting the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement.

On December 18, 2003, Change funded the additional $350,000 loan to Neurologix. RECOMMENDATION OF CHANGE'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS; FACTORS CONSIDERED BY CHANGE'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN RELATION TO THE MERGER THE CHANGE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY DETERMINED THAT THE MERGER AND THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING TO THE MERGER, INCLUDING THE PROPOSALS RELATING TO THE MERGER DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND PROSPECTUS, ARE ADVISABLE TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF, CHANGE AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF EACH OF THE PROPOSALS RELATING TO THE MERGER. In reaching the above determination, the Change board of directors gave significant consideration to a variety of factors, including those described below. In view of the wide variety of factors bearing on its decision, the Change board did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify or assign relative specific weight to the factors it considered in reaching its decision. In addition, individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. The Change board consulted with its legal and financial advisors in connection with its consideration of the Merger. The Change board does not intend the following discussion of the information and factors to be exhaustive but believes the discussion includes the material factors it considered. In making its determination, the Change board of directors considered the following potentially material factors: - Suitable Business Opportunity. On September 30, 2002, the Change board of directors announced the adoption of a plan of liquidation and dissolution. However, the board continued to review suitable business opportunities. The directors of Change believe the proposed transaction with Neurologix is a suitable business opportunity and may provide more value to the stockholders of Change than they would receive under the plan of liquidation and dissolution. - Financial Resources of the Combined Company Will Enhance Its Ability to Conduct the Phase I Clinical Trial of Gene Therapy for the Treatment of Parkinson's disease. Neurologix's scientific founders recently became the first and only team to receive FDA approval to conduct a Phase I human clinical trial of gene therapy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The Change board believes that the financial resources of the combined company will greatly enhance its ability to conduct the Phase I clinical trial. 27 - Terms of the Merger Agreement and other Transaction Agreements. The Change board evaluated the overall terms of the merger agreement and the other transaction agreements, including, but not limited to, the exchange ratio and the adjustments to the exchange ratio, the non-solicitation provisions and related fiduciary out, voting commitments, the termination fee provisions, the representations and warranties of the parties, the interim covenants, the closing conditions and the $1,100,000 secured loan provided by Change to Neurologix. - Opinion of Change's Financial Advisor. The Change board also considered the favorable opinion of BNY Capital Markets, Inc. described in this proxy statement and prospectus. - Tax Treatment. The qualification of the Merger as a tax-free reorganization for federal tax purposes. In considering the recommendation of the Change board of directors to approve and adopt the Merger proposals described in this proxy statement and prospectus, Change stockholders should be aware that some officers and directors of Change have interests in the proposed Merger that are different from and in addition to the interests of Change stockholders generally. The Change board of directors was aware of these interests and considered them in approving the merger agreement and the Merger. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger -- Interests of Certain Persons in the Merger." RECOMMENDATION OF NEUROLOGIX'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS; FACTORS CONSIDERED BY NEUROLOGIX'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN RELATION TO THE MERGER THE NEUROLOGIX BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY DETERMINED THAT THE MERGER AND THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING TO THE MERGER, AS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND PROSPECTUS, ARE ADVISABLE TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF, NEUROLOGIX AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS. BASED UPON SUCH RECOMMENDATION, THE HOLDERS OF A MAJORITY OF NEUROLOGIX'S CAPITAL STOCK ENTERED INTO THE VOTING AGREEMENT AND EXECUTED A WRITTEN CONSENT APPROVING THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THE MERGER AGREEMENT. In making the above determination, the Neurologix board of directors gave significant consideration to a variety of factors, including those described below. In view of the wide variety of factors bearing on its decision, the Neurologix board did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify or assign relative specific weight to the factors it considered in reaching its decision. In addition, individual directors may have given different weights to different factors. The Neurologix board does not intend for the following discussion of the information and factors considered by it to be exhaustive but believes such discussion includes the material factors it considered in making its determination. In making its determination, the Neurologix board of directors considered the following potentially material factors: - Financial Resources of the Combined Company Will Enhance Its Ability to Conduct the Phase I Clinical Trial of Gene Therapy for the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease. Neurologix's scientific founders recently became the first and only team to receive FDA approval to conduct a Phase I human clinical trial using gene therapy to treat Parkinson's disease. The trial began in August 2003. The Neurologix board of directors believes that the $1,100,000 secured loan provided by Change to Neurologix upon the execution of the merger agreement and the financial resources of the combined company will greatly enhance its ability to conduct its clinical trial for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. - Neurologix Will Require Additional Financing. The combined company will need significant additional financing to fund its research and development efforts. The combined company will have securities that are publicly traded. Although trading is currently only on the over-the-counter market and liquidity is not significant, the Neurologix board of directors believes that the Merger may provide it with greater access to financing to be able to satisfy its future capital needs. - Terms of the Merger Agreement and Other Transaction Agreements. The Neurologix board of directors evaluated the overall terms of the merger agreement and the other transaction agreements, including, but not limited to, the exchange ratio and the adjustments to the exchange ratio, the 28 termination fee provisions, the representations of the parties, the interim covenants, the closing conditions and the immediate availability of the $1,100,000 secured loan provided by Change to Neurologix upon the execution of the merger agreement. - Availability of Alternative Financing. The Neurologix board of directors also considered the difficulty of obtaining venture capital or other financing in the current market, the time needed to obtain alternative financing, even if available, and the terms that would likely be required if such financing could be obtained, including liquidation preferences and other protective provisions. - Tax Treatment. The qualification of the Merger as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal tax purposes. Neurologix stockholders should be aware that some officers and directors of Neurologix have interests in the proposed Merger that are different from and in addition to the interests of Neurologix stockholders generally. The Neurologix board of directors was aware of these interests and considered them in approving the merger agreement and the Merger. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "The Merger -- Interests of Certain Persons in the Merger." OPINION OF THE FINANCIAL ADVISOR TO CHANGE The Change board of directors evaluated several potential financial advisors in connection with the Merger on the basis of reputation, experience with comparable deals and cost, and selected BNY Capital Markets, Inc. to act as its exclusive financial advisor in connection with the Merger. On August 8, 2003, at a meeting of the Change board of directors held to evaluate the proposed Merger, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. rendered to the Change board an oral opinion to the effect that the Merger was fair from a financial point of view to stockholders of Change, based on and subject to the matters described in the opinion and finalizing of all relevant agreements. On August 11, 2003, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. confirmed its oral opinion by delivery of its written opinion dated the same date. In arriving at its opinion, BNY Capital Markets, Inc.: - reviewed the merger agreement, the voting agreement and the agreements relating to the loan provided by Change to Neurologix; - reviewed and analyzed certain internal financial statements, including audited historical and unaudited interim statements, and other financial and operating data concerning Change and Neurologix, as well as projections prepared by the management of Neurologix; - discussed the past and current operations and financial condition as well as the prospects of Change and Neurologix with senior executives and consultants of Change and Neurologix; - reviewed Change's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2000 through 2002, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, its Reports on Form 8-K, dated June 18, 2003, and June 30, 2003, and its certificate of incorporation; - reviewed the reported prices and trading activity of Change common stock from March 28, 2000 to August 11, 2003; - reviewed publicly available information for certain publicly-traded companies selected for comparative purposes; - considered traditional valuation methodologies, including but not limited to publicly-traded companies selected for comparative purposes, recent industry merger and acquisition transactions, recent industry venture capital transactions and discounted cash flow analyses; and - performed such other analyses and considered such other factors deemed relevant and appropriate. In rendering its opinion, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. assumed and relied, without independent verification, on the accuracy and completeness of all financial and other information and data publicly available or furnished to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with BNY Capital Markets, Inc. and relied upon the 29 assurances of management of Change and Neurologix that they were not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information inaccurate or misleading in any material respect. With respect to financial forecasts and other information and data relating to Change and Neurologix provided to or otherwise discussed with BNY Capital Markets, Inc., the management teams of Change and Neurologix advised BNY Capital Markets, Inc. that such forecasts and other information and data were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the management teams of Change and Neurologix as to the future financial performance of Change and Neurologix. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. assumed that the Merger and related transactions would be consummated in accordance with their terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary third-party approvals and consents for the Merger and related transactions, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition would be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Change or Neurologix. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. also assumed that the Merger would be treated as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. did not express an opinion as to the price or range of prices at which the shares of Change common stock may trade subsequent to the announcement of the Merger or as to the price or range of prices at which the shares of Change common stock may trade subsequent to the consummation of the Merger. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. expressed no view as to, and its opinion does not address, the underlying business decision of Change to proceed with or effect the Merger. The opinion of BNY Capital Markets, Inc. was necessarily based on information available, and financial, stock market and other conditions and circumstances existing and disclosed, to BNY Capital Markets, Inc. as of the date of its opinion. THE FULL TEXT OF THE WRITTEN OPINION OF BNY CAPITAL MARKETS, INC., DATED AUGUST 11, 2003, WHICH DESCRIBES THE ASSUMPTIONS MADE, PROCEDURES FOLLOWED, MATTERS CONSIDERED AND LIMITATIONS ON THE REVIEW UNDERTAKEN, IS ATTACHED TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND PROSPECTUS AS APPENDIX D AND IS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. THE OPINION OF BNY CAPITAL MARKETS, INC. IS ADDRESSED TO THE CHANGE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND RELATES ONLY TO THE FAIRNESS, FROM A FINANCIAL POINT OF VIEW, OF THE MERGER TO THE STOCKHOLDERS OF CHANGE AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A RECOMMENDATION TO ANY STOCKHOLDER OF CHANGE OR NEUROLOGIX WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTERS RELATING TO THE MERGER. Pursuant to a letter agreement dated July 30, 2003, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. was engaged to provide financial advisory services, including a financial opinion letter (the Opinion), in connection with the Merger. At the August 11, 2003 meeting of the Change board of directors, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. rendered its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of such date and based upon and subject to the various considerations set forth in its opinion, the valuation of Neurologix associated with the Merger was fair from a financial point of view to the holders of shares of Change common stock. The summary set forth below is not a complete description of the analyses underlying the Opinion. The preparation of a financial opinion is a complex process involving various determinations and as such is not readily susceptible to summary description. Accordingly, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on information presented in tabular format, without considering all factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying its analyses and opinion. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. considered industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters existing as of the date of its opinion, many of which are beyond the control of Change and Neurologix. No company, transaction or business used in those analyses as a comparison is identical to Change, Neurologix or the Merger, and an evaluation of those analyses is not entirely mathematical. Rather, the analyses involve complex considerations and judgments concerning financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the acquisition, public trading or other values of the companies, business segments or transactions analyzed. The estimates contained in BNY Capital Markets, Inc.'s analyses and the valuation ranges resulting from any particular analysis are not necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, 30 which may be significantly more or less favorable than those suggested by its analyses. In addition, analyses relating to the value of businesses or securities do not necessarily purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Accordingly, BNY Capital Markets, Inc.'s analyses and estimates are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty. BNY Capital Markets, Inc.'s opinion and analyses were only one of many factors considered by Change's board of directors in its evaluation of the Merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of the Change board of directors or management with respect to the Merger. The following is a summary of the material financial analyses performed by BNY Capital Markets, Inc. in connection with the rendering of its opinion dated August 11, 2003. THE FINANCIAL ANALYSES SUMMARIZED BELOW INCLUDE INFORMATION PRESENTED IN TABULAR FORMAT. IN ORDER TO FULLY UNDERSTAND BNY CAPITAL MARKETS, INC.'S FINANCIAL ANALYSES, THE TABLES MUST BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE TEXT OF EACH SUMMARY. THE TABLES ALONE DO NOT CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF THE FINANCIAL ANALYSES. CONSIDERING THE DATA BELOW WITHOUT CONSIDERING THE FULL NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF THE FINANCIAL ANALYSES, INCLUDING THE METHODOLOGIES AND ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE ANALYSES, COULD CREATE A MISLEADING OR INCOMPLETE VIEW OF BNY CAPITAL MARKETS, INC.'S FINANCIAL ANALYSES. Merger Overview. For purposes of the financial analyses, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. assumed that the Merger would result in existing Change Stockholders owning approximately 33.3% of the fully diluted shares of the pro forma company, which would imply a pre-money equity value for Neurologix of $15.0 million (assuming Net Cash Assets are at least $7.5 million). This pre-money equity value was compared against the valuation determined by the financial analyses summarized below. Selected Comparative Mergers and Acquisitions Analysis. Using publicly available information, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. reviewed the purchase prices, including net debt, and implied transaction value multiples paid or proposed to be paid in the following seven selected merger and acquisition transactions with biotechnology targets that are focused on gene therapy: DATE EFFECTIVE ACQUIROR TARGET 7/30/03 - Boston Scientific Corp. - Coratus Genetics Inc. 2/05/03 - Genstar Therapeutics Corp. - Vascular Genetics, Inc. 7/03/02 - Schering AG - Collateral Therapeutics, Inc. 4/18/02 - Qiagen NV - Xeragon, Inc. 9/05/01 - Cell Genesys, Inc. - Calydon, Inc. 1/11/01 - Cell Genesys, Inc. - Neurologic Gene Therapeutics 1/08/01 - Cell Genesys, Inc. - Gene Therapy Business (Chiron Corp.) The selected merger and acquisition transactions were not useful for comparative purposes because the target companies did not have similar products in comparable stages of development as Neurologix. Accordingly, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. did not use the merger and acquisition transaction approach to value Neurologix. Selected Comparative Venture Capital Transaction Analysis. Using publicly available information, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. reviewed the venture capital transactions completed since January 1, 2001, including the amount raised and post-money valuation, for the following eight biotechnology companies focused on gene therapy: - Athersys, Inc.; - BioForce Nanosciences, Inc.; - Copernicus Therapeutics, Inc.; - Discovery Genomics, Inc.; - Intronn LLC; 31 - Osiris Therapeutics, Inc.; - Salus Therapeutics, Inc.; and - Selective Genetics, Inc. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. did not use the comparative venture capital transaction approach because of the lack of publicly available information regarding the target companies, including: (i) the product pipeline; (ii) the overall size of the market for each product; and (iii) the estimated market penetration for each product and the risks inherent with achieving such penetration rates. Selected Comparative Companies Analysis. Using publicly available information, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. reviewed the market values and trading multiples of the following six selected publicly held biotechnology companies focused on gene therapy: - Avigen, Inc.; - Cell Genesys, Inc.; - Corautus Genetics Inc.; - Introgen Therapeutics, Inc.; - Targeted Genetics Corporation; and - Transkaryotic Therapies. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. computed enterprise values, calculated as equity value on a fully diluted basis, plus debt, less cash and marketable securities, as a multiple of revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), for each company's last twelve month reporting period. All multiples were based on closing stock prices on August 8, 2003. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. also computed the ratio of each company's closing stock price to its Net Income on a per share basis ("P/E"), for each company's last twelve month reporting period. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. did not use the comparative company approach because of the absence of any publicly-traded gene therapy company with similar products in comparable stages of development as Neurologix. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. observed that in the period since Neurologix raised $2.7 million in February 2002 at a pre-money valuation of $25.0 million to August 8, 2003, the stock prices for Avigen, Inc. and Cell Genesys, Inc. (the companies most comparable to Neurologix as they are both gene therapy companies that are currently developing treatments for Parkinson's disease in addition to other neurological disorders), had declined collectively by 43.0%. Based on this decline, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. imputed an implied equity value of $15.8 million for Neurologix, compared to the implied pre-money value in the Merger of $15.0 million. This analysis, however, does not take into consideration that during this time period, Neurologix reached an important milestone in achieving FDA approval to conduct a Phase I human clinical trial for Parkinson's disease, which suggests that taking a "biotechnology sector discount" of 43.0% is not appropriate. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. performed a discounted cash flow analysis of Neurologix in order to calculate the estimated present value of the stand-alone, unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that Neurologix could generate over fiscal years 2003 through 2015. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. utilized the projections provided by Neurologix's management, as well as a "downside case", which assumes Neurologix does not reach its estimated market penetration rates and only achieves 50.0% of its projected Net Income and EBITDA. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. calculated a range of estimated terminal values for Neurologix by applying to Neurologix's fiscal year 2015 estimated Net Income a range of terminal P/E multiples of 25.0x to 35.0x, consistent with biotechnology comparable stage industry ranges. The present value of the cash flows and terminal values were calculated using discount rates ranging from 45.0% to 55.0%, also 32 consistent with biotechnology comparable stage industry ranges. This analysis indicated the following implied equity value ranges for Neurologix: IMPLIED EQUITY VALUE RANGE ($ IN MILLIONS) MANAGEMENT PROJECTIONS DOWNSIDE CASE ---------------------- ------------- $32.2 - $106.9 $13.2 - $50.0 BNY Capital Markets, Inc. noted, however, the fact that $7.5 million of cash is not sufficient for Neurologix to become cash flow positive based on Neurologix's projections. Neurologix projects a future need to raise an additional $17.0 million to fund clinical trials prior to FDA approval. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. pointed out that the additional funding requirement would be dilutive if the funds raised in the future are in whole or in part additional equity. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. also stated that it believes such funds are likely to take the form of equity. While such financing would be expected to be at a pre-money value that is greater than $22.5 million if Neurologix continues to achieve its key milestones throughout the FDA process, any equity financing would be dilutive to existing shareholders. In order to model the effect of raising additional funds in the future, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. selected the mid-point of the discounted cash flow valuation and assumed the pre-money valuation for the next financing round would be at least equal to $22.5 million (the current post-money valuation). This valuation would result in approximately 40.0% dilution, effectively reducing existing Neurologix shareholders' to approximately 60.0%. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. calculated the implied equity values for Neurologix's existing shareholders (pro forma for the Merger), assuming an ownership stake of between 60.0% (future external funding requirements being 100.0% equity financed at $22.5 million pre-money) and 100.0% (100.0% debt financed) post dilution. This analysis indicated the following implied equity value ranges for Neurologix: COMMON EQUITY VALUE RANGE (BASED ON MID-POINT OF DCF METHODOLOGY) ($ IN MILLIONS) EXISTING NEUROLOGIX SHAREHOLDERS' ASSUMED OWNERSHIP STAKE POST DILUTION ------------------------------------------- % OF EBITDA REALIZED 60.0% 70.0% 80.0% 90.0% 100.0% -------------------- ------ ------ ------ ------ ------- 100.0%......................................... $41.7 $48.7 $55.7 $62.6 $69.6 50.0%.......................................... 19.0 22.1 25.3 28.4 31.6 Other Factors. In rendering its opinion, BNY Capital Markets, Inc. also reviewed and considered other factors, including: - A group of investors led by Medtronic (publicly-traded biotechnology company with approximately $8.0 billion in revenue) invested $2.7 million in February 2002 at a pre-money valuation of $25.0 million; and - Neurologix's largest shareholder, Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., is converting its $2.3 million Neurologix Note to Neurologix Common Stock prior to the consummation of the Merger at a price per share equal to $6.00, which implies an equity value for Neurologix of approximately $35.0 million. Miscellaneous. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. is a nationally recognized investment banking firm and is acting as exclusive financial advisor to the Board of Directors of Change and has received a fee for its services. In addition, Change has agreed to indemnify BNY Capital Markets, Inc. for certain liabilities that may arise out of the rendering of its opinion. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Company, Inc. ("BNYCo."). In the ordinary course of business, BNYCo. and its affiliates may from time to time trade in the securities of Change for the accounts of the investment funds under their management and for the accounts of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. 33 INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN THE MERGER GENERAL In considering the recommendations of the respective boards of directors of Change and Neurologix, you should be aware that members of the boards and management of each of Change and Neurologix may have interests in the Merger that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a stockholder which may result in potential conflicts of interest. The boards of each company recognized these interests and determined that these interests neither supported nor detracted from the fairness of the Merger to you. INTERESTS OF CHANGE'S DIRECTORS Some of Change's directors have interests in the Merger that are different from, or in addition to, your interests generally and that may create a potential conflict of interest. As of September 30, 2003, Michael Gleason may be deemed to beneficially own 33,489,130 shares of Change common stock, consisting of 32,000,000 shares of Change common stock owned by Culmen Technology Partners, L.P. and options to purchase an aggregate of 1,489,130 shares of Change common stock. Mr. Gleason is the President and sole director of CTP, Inc., the general partner of Culmen Technology Partners, L.P. Mr. Gleason holds options which have not vested to purchase an additional 21,870 shares of Change common stock. Under the terms of the 2000 Stock Option Plan of Change, these additional options will remain outstanding but will fully vest as a result of the closing of the Merger, which is a change of control under such plan. INTERESTS OF NEUROLOGIX'S DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND SIGNIFICANT STOCKHOLDERS Some of Neurologix's officers and directors and significant stockholders have interests in the Merger that are different from, or in addition to, your interests generally and that may create a potential conflict of interest. The merger agreement provides for the survival in the Merger of all indemnification rights of the members of Neurologix's board of directors and officers for acts and omissions occurring before the Merger, as their rights existed on August 13, 2003, in Neurologix's certificate of incorporation and bylaws. The combined company will observe all of these indemnification rights to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law for a period of not less than six years after the Merger. During this period, the merger agreement also requires the combined company to maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance covering all individuals who were directors and officers of Neurologix immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger with respect to their acts and omissions as directors and officers of Neurologix prior to the Merger. Pursuant to the voting agreement, Martin J. Kaplitt, Clark A. Johnson and Palisade Private Partnership, L.P. have agreed, immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, to exchange their interests in the Existing Neurologix Note for shares of Neurologix common stock. Messrs. Kaplitt and Johnson are members of Neurologix's board of directors, and Mark Hoffman, another member of Neurologix's board of directors, is a managing member of Palisade Private Holdings, LLC, the sole general partner of Palisade Private Partnership, L.P. The aggregate number of shares of Neurologix common stock that Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., and Messrs. Johnson and Kaplitt will receive shall not exceed 400,000 shares and will be determined by dividing (x) the sum of (a) the product of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Existing Neurologix Note as of the date of the exchange plus (b) the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Neurologix Note as of the date of the exchange by (y) $6.00. At September 30, 2003, the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Neurologix Note was $2 million and the accrued interest was $328,289, so if the Merger had occurred on that date, Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., and Messrs. Johnson and Clark would have been entitled to receive approximately 388,048 shares of Neurologix common stock in the aggregate. Neurologix has agreed to pay Palisade Capital Securities, L.L.C., an affiliate of Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., $200,000 contingent upon the closing of the Merger in exchange for investment banking services rendered by Palisade Capital Securities in connection with the Merger. 34 REGULATORY APPROVALS The Merger does not require any federal or state agency regulatory approvals. STOCK EXCHANGE LISTING The common stock of Change, including the common stock to be issued to Neurologix stockholders in connection with the Merger, will continue to be quoted on the OTC electronic bulletin board under a new symbol to be applied for following the Merger. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS CONSEQUENCES All of the shares of Change common stock received by Neurologix stockholders in the Merger will be freely transferable under the federal securities laws, except for shares received by persons who are deemed to be "affiliates" of Change or Neurologix for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act prior to the completion of the Merger. These shares may be resold only in transactions permitted by the resale provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act or Rule 144 under the Securities Act in the case of persons who become affiliates of Neurologix or as otherwise permitted under the Securities Act. Persons who may be deemed to be affiliates of Change or Neurologix generally include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, those companies and may include some of their officers and directors, as well as their principal stockholders. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE HOLDERS OF NEUROLOGIX COMMON STOCK OR SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK The Merger is structured as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a result, U.S. holders of Neurologix capital stock will not recognize any taxable gain from the receipt of Change common stock in connection with the Merger. For more information regarding the tax treatment of the Merger, please refer to the section of this proxy statement and prospectus entitled "Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger." ACCOUNTING TREATMENT The acquisition is anticipated to be accounted for as a reverse acquisition. The assets and liabilities of Neurologix will be recorded at their historical carrying values and the assets and liabilities of Change will be recorded at their fair values, which approximate their historical values. The reported financial condition and results of operations of Neurologix after the Merger will reflect these values, but will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of Change. DIVIDEND POLICY Under the merger agreement, Change and Neurologix have each agreed not to declare or pay any dividend on their equity securities until the Merger is consummated. The combined company anticipates that for the foreseeable future, its earnings, if any, will be retained for use in the operation of its business and that no cash dividends will be paid on its capital stock. The decision of the combined company's board as to whether or not to pay cash dividends in the future will depend upon a number of factors, including the combined company's future earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and the existence or absence of any contractual limitations on the payment of dividends. APPRAISAL RIGHTS If the Merger is completed, holders of Neurologix common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock who follow the procedures summarized below will be entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. 35 Under Delaware law, the holders of record of shares of Neurologix common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock who follow the procedures specified in Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law are entitled to have their shares appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and may receive the "fair value" of those shares, without taking into account any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, as determined by the court. The "fair value" could be greater than, less than or the same as the consideration to be received in the Merger. In order to exercise these rights, a Neurologix stockholder must demand and perfect the rights in accordance with Section 262. Under Section 262, where a Merger is approved without a meeting of stockholders, as in the case of the adoption of the merger agreement by Neurologix's stockholders, the corporation, before the effective date of the Merger, or the surviving corporation, within 10 days of the Merger, must notify each of its stockholders entitled to appraisal rights that such appraisal rights are available and include in this notice a copy of Section 262. This proxy statement and prospectus serves as this statutory notice. The estimated effective date of the Merger is , 2004. If this date changes, Neurologix or the surviving corporation will send a second notice, notifying stockholders of the effective date; provided, however, that if the second notice is sent more than 20 days following sending this proxy statement and prospectus, the second notice will only be sent to stockholders who have demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with the statute. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT A COMPLETE STATEMENT OF THE LAW PERTAINING TO APPRAISAL RIGHTS UNDER THE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE FULL TEXT OF SECTION 262, WHICH IS ATTACHED HERETO AS APPENDIX E. ALL REFERENCES IN SECTION 262 AND IN THIS SUMMARY TO A "STOCKHOLDER" ARE TO THE RECORD HOLDER OF THE SHARES OF NEUROLOGIX COMMON STOCK OR SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE TIME OF THE MERGER AS TO WHICH APPRAISAL RIGHTS ARE ASSERTED. A PERSON HAVING A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN SHARES OF NEUROLOGIX COMMON STOCK OR SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK HELD OF RECORD IN THE NAME OF ANOTHER PERSON, SUCH AS A BROKER OR A NOMINEE, MUST ACT PROMPTLY TO CAUSE THE RECORD HOLDER TO FOLLOW THE STEPS SUMMARIZED BELOW PROPERLY AND IN A TIMELY MANNER TO PERFECT APPRAISAL RIGHTS. NEUROLOGIX STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW SECTION 262 AS WELL AS THE INFORMATION DISCUSSED BELOW. Filing Written Demand. If a Neurologix stockholder elects to exercise the right to an appraisal under Section 262, that stockholder must do ALL of the following: - The stockholder must deliver to Neurologix a written demand for appraisal of shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock held, which demand must reasonably inform Neurologix of the identity of the stockholder and that the demanding stockholder is demanding appraisal, within 20 days after the date of mailing of the notice (i.e., the mailing date of this prospectus and proxy statement). This written demand for appraisal must be delivered to Neurologix prior to , 2004, and must be in addition to and separate from any vote against the merger agreement. Neither voting against, abstaining from voting nor failing to vote on the merger agreement will constitute a valid demand for appraisal within the meaning of Section 262. - The stockholder must not vote in favor of or consent to adopting the merger agreement. Failing to vote or to consent or abstaining from voting will satisfy this requirement, but a vote in favor of the merger agreement, by proxy or in person, or the return of a signed consent that does not specify an abstention or a vote against adoption of the merger agreement, will constitute a vote in favor of the merger agreement, a waiver of the stockholder's right of appraisal and will nullify any previously delivered written demand for appraisal. - The stockholder must continuously hold the shares of record from the date of the written demand for appraisal until the effective time of the Merger. All written demands for appraisal should be addressed to Neurologix, Inc., One Bridge Plaza, Fort Lee, New Jersey 07024, Attention: Mark Hoffman, and received before , 2004. The demand must 36 reasonably inform Neurologix of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder is demanding appraisal of his, her or its shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock. The written demand for appraisal must be executed by or for the record holder of shares of Neurologix stock, fully and correctly, as the holder's name appears on the certificate(s) for the holder's shares. If the shares of Neurologix stock are owned of record in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, execution of the demand must be made in that capacity, and if the shares are owned of record by more than one person, such as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, the demand must be executed by or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, including one of two or more joint owners, may execute the demand for appraisal for a holder of record; however, the agent must identify the record owner(s) and expressly disclose the fact that, in executing the demand, the agent is acting as agent for the record owner(s). A record holder, such as a bank broker, fiduciary, depository or other nominee, who holds shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock as a nominee for others, may exercise appraisal rights with respect to the shares held for all or less than all beneficial owners of the shares as to which the person is the record owner. In that case, the written demand must set forth the number of shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock covered by the demand. Where the number of shares is not expressly stated, the demand will be presumed to cover all shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock outstanding in the name of the record owner. Any Neurologix stockholder may withdraw its demand for appraisal and accept the Change securities to be issued in the Merger by delivering to Neurologix a written withdrawal of the demand for appraisal. However, any such attempt to withdraw made more than 60 days after the effective date of the Merger will require written approval of the surviving corporation. No appraisal proceeding in the Delaware Court of Chancery will be dismissed without the approval of the Court and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just. If the surviving corporation does not approve a request to withdraw a demand for appraisal when that approval is required, or if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not approve the dismissal of an appraisal proceeding, the Neurologix stockholder will be entitled to receive only the appraised value determined in any such appraisal proceeding, which value could be less than, equal to or more than the value of the Change securities to be issued in the Merger. Notice by Neurologix. Within 10 days after the effective time of the Merger, Neurologix will provide written notice of the date of the consummation of the Merger to each Neurologix stockholder who has not voted in favor of the Merger and who has properly demanded appraisal and satisfied the requirements of Section 262, referred to as a "dissenting stockholder." Within 120 days after the effective date of the Merger, any dissenting stockholder who has complied with the provisions of Section 262 to that point in time will be entitled to receive from the combined company, upon written request, a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger agreement and the Merger and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. The combined company must mail that statement to the dissenting stockholder within 10 days of receipt of the request or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisals under Section 262, whichever is later. Filing a Petition for Appraisal. Within 120 days after the completion of the Merger, Neurologix or any dissenting stockholder may file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the fair value of the shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock that are held by all dissenting stockholders. Neurologix is under no obligation, and has no present intention, to file such a petition. Accordingly, it is the obligation of Neurologix stockholders seeking appraisal rights to initiate all necessary actions to perfect appraisal rights within the time period prescribed by Section 262. A Neurologix stockholder timely filing a petition for appraisal with the Delaware Court of Chancery must deliver a copy to the combined company, which will then be obligated within 20 days to provide the Register in Chancery with a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all Neurologix stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by the combined company. After providing notice to those Neurologix stockholders, the Delaware Court of Chancery may conduct a hearing on the petition to determine which Neurologix stockholders have become 37 entitled to appraisal rights. The Delaware Court of Chancery may require Neurologix stockholders who have demanded an appraisal of their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the fact that appraisal proceedings are pending. If any Neurologix stockholder fails to comply with the requirement, the Delaware Court of Chancery may dismiss the proceedings as to that Neurologix stockholder. Determination of Fair Value. If a petition for appraisal is timely filed, the Delaware Court of Chancery will determine the fair value of the shares of Neurologix stock held by dissenting stockholders, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid on the amount determined to be fair value. In determining fair value, the court will take into account all relevant factors. Holders of Neurologix stock considering seeking appraisal should be aware that (i) the fair value of their shares of Neurologix stock as so determined could be more than, the same as or less than the consideration they would receive pursuant to the Merger if they did not seek appraisal of their shares of Neurologix stock and (ii) investment banking opinions as to fairness from a financial point of view are not necessarily opinions as to fair value under Section 262. The Delaware Supreme Court stated in Weinberger v. UOP, Inc., among other things, that "proof of value by any techniques or methods which are generally acceptable in the financial community and otherwise admissible in court" should be considered in an appraisal proceeding. In addition, Delaware courts have decided that the statutory appraisal remedy may or may not be, depending on the factual circumstances, a Neurologix stockholder's exclusive remedy in connection with transactions such as the Merger. If a petition for appraisal is not timely filed, then the right to an appraisal will cease. The costs of the appraisal proceeding shall be determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery and taxed against the parties as the court determines to be equitable under the circumstances. The Delaware Court of Chancery will also determine the amount of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amounts to be received by persons whose shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock have been appraised. Upon application of a Neurologix stockholder, the court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any Neurologix stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including reasonable attorneys' fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all shares of Neurologix common stock entitled to appraisal. From and after the completion of the Merger, no dissenting stockholder shall have any rights of a Neurologix stockholder with respect to that holder's shares for any purpose, except to receive payment of fair value and to receive payment of dividends or other distributions, on the holder's shares of Neurologix stock, if any, payable to Neurologix stockholders of record as of a time prior to the completion of the Merger. If a dissenting stockholder delivers to the combined company a written withdrawal of the demand for an appraisal within 60 days after the completion of the Merger or subsequently with the written approval of the combined company, or, if no petition for appraisal is filed within 120 days after the completion of the Merger, then the right of that dissenting stockholder to an appraisal will cease and the dissenting stockholder will be entitled to receive only the Merger consideration. Once a petition for appraisal is filed with the Delaware court, the appraisal proceeding may not be dismissed as to any Neurologix stockholder without the approval of the court. ANY NEUROLOGIX STOCKHOLDER WISHING TO EXERCISE APPRAISAL RIGHTS IS URGED TO CONSULT LEGAL COUNSEL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO EXERCISE APPRAISAL RIGHTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY STRICTLY WITH ALL OF THE PROCEDURES SET FORTH IN SECTION 262 MAY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF A NEUROLOGIX STOCKHOLDER'S STATUTORY APPRAISAL RIGHTS. 38 THE MERGER AGREEMENT The following summarizes the material provisions of the merger agreement. Copies of the merger agreement and amendment no. 1 to the merger agreement are attached as Appendix A and Appendix B, respectively, to this proxy statement and prospectus and are incorporated by reference. You should read the merger agreement carefully and in its entirety for a more complete understanding of its terms. The provisions of related agreements are summarized in the next section entitled "Description of Related Agreements." GENERAL The merger agreement provides that, following the receipt of the requisite approvals of Change's stockholders and the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions to the Merger, Subcorp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change, will be merged with and into Neurologix. As a result of the Merger, Neurologix will continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change. Upon completion of the Merger, Change will change its corporate name to "Neurologix, Inc." The Merger will be effective at 12:01 a.m. on the date that Change and Neurologix file a certificate of merger with the Delaware Secretary of State. This filing will occur as soon as is practicable after the closing under the merger agreement. Unless agreed otherwise, the closing will occur on a date specified by Neurologix, provided that specified conditions set forth in the merger agreement have been satisfied or waived at or prior to such date. CONVERSION OF SECURITIES As of the date of the merger agreement, Neurologix's capital stock consisted of common stock, par value $.001 per share, its initial series of convertible preferred stock, par value $.001 per share, and Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $.001 per share. As described in this proxy statement and prospectus, under the voting agreement, holders of 100% of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock and approximately 79.2% of the Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock agreed to convert their shares into shares of Neurologix common stock immediately prior to the Merger. In addition, all of the persons having an interest in the Existing Neurologix Note agreed to convert their interests into shares of Neurologix common stock. Accordingly, at the effective time of the Merger, the capital stock of Neurologix is expected to consist solely of common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock. At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Neurologix common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock, on an as-converted to Neurologix common stock basis, will be converted into that number of shares of Change common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio, as defined below. EXCHANGE RATIO IF CHANGE'S NET CASH ASSETS (AS DEFINED IN THE MERGER AGREEMENT) ARE AT LEAST $7.5 MILLION. If immediately prior to the closing, Change's Net Cash Assets are at least $7.5 million and Neurologix has not raised cash proceeds through the issuance of additional equity, then each share of Neurologix common stock and Series B convertible preferred stock, on an as-converted to Neurologix common stock basis, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, excluding shares owned by Neurologix or Change and dissenting shares, will be converted into that number of shares of Change common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio. Total CTP Existing Shares multiplied by 2 Exchange Ratio = ----------------------------------------- Total Neurologix Existing Shares Where: "Total CTP Existing Shares" means the number of shares of Change common stock (i) issued and outstanding prior to the effective time of the Merger, (ii) issuable upon conversion of all Change convertible securities including shares of Change Series A convertible preferred stock, par value $.10 per share, and (iii) issuable upon exercise of all Change options with an exercise price per share that is less 39 than or equal to $0.03, which options, provide for the purchase of 12,000,000 shares of Change common stock. "Total Neurologix Existing Shares" means the number of shares of Neurologix common stock (i) issued and outstanding prior to the effective time of the Merger, (ii) issuable upon conversion of all Neurologix convertible securities including shares of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock and Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock, (iii) issuable upon exchange of the Existing Neurologix Note as provided in the voting agreement and (iv) issuable upon exercise of all Neurologix options with an exercise price per share less than or equal to $0.25, which options provide for the purchase of 232,000 shares of Neurologix common stock, in each case, excluding all shares owned by Neurologix or Change but including all dissenting shares. EXCHANGE RATIO IF CHANGE'S NET CASH ASSETS ARE LESS THAN $7.5 MILLION. Total CTP Existing Shares multiplied by X Exchange Ratio = ----------------------------------------- Total Neurologix Existing Shares Where "X" is the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $15.0 million by (y) the lesser of (i) the amount of Change's Net Cash Assets as of the closing of the Merger or (ii) $7.5 million. In the event that Neurologix sells any additional equity, the net cash proceeds from such sale (after all expenses incurred relating thereto) shall be added to the numerator. THE NUMBER OF SHARES TO BE ISSUED BY CHANGE IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER WILL BE UNCERTAIN UNTIL IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE TIME OF THE MERGER. As described in this proxy statement and prospectus, the number of shares of Change common stock to be issued to holders of Neurologix common stock and Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock is directly related to Change's Net Cash Assets as of the closing of the Merger. Because Change's Net Cash Assets is to be determined as of the closing of the Merger, the number of shares to be issued by Change in connection with the Merger is at this time uncertain. The chart below sets forth the approximate percentages of the outstanding common stock of the combined company to be held after the Merger by the existing stockholders of Change and Neurologix based upon varying assumptions of Change's Net Cash Assets and assuming Neurologix does not raise any funds from the sale of additional equity prior to the closing. The chart assumes that Total CTP Existing Shares was equal to 194,004,564 and Total Neurologix Existing Shares was equal to 5,804,712. % OF OUTSTANDING % OF OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK OF THE COMMON STOCK OF THE COMBINED COMPANY COMBINED COMPANY HELD BY EXISTING HELD BY EXISTING CHANGE NET CASH ASSETS CHANGE STOCKHOLDERS NEUROLOGIX STOCKHOLDERS TOTAL ---------------------- ------------------- ----------------------- ------ $7,500,000 or more.................... 32.82% 67.18% 100.00% $7,000,000............................ 31.32% 68.68% 100.00% $6,500,000............................ 29.75% 70.25% 100.00% $6,000,000............................ 28.10% 71.90% 100.00% $5,500,000............................ 26.38% 73.62% 100.00% The merger agreement provides that Neurologix is not obligated to participate in the Merger if Change's Net Cash Assets are $6,500,000 or less. In connection with the signing of the merger agreement and based upon information as of July 31, 2003, Change estimated that its Net Cash Assets at closing would be approximately $7,139,995. On that date, Total 40 CTP Existing Shares was equal to 194,004,564 and Total Neurologix Existing Shares was equal to 5,804,712, resulting in the following: 194,004,564 multiplied by 2.1008 Exchange Ratio = -------------------------------- 5,804,712 Accordingly, had the Exchange Ratio been determined as of July 31, 2003 or December 31, 2003, it would have been 70.2127 resulting in approximately 32% and 68% of the common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger being held by existing Change stockholders and existing Neurologix stockholders, respectively. Change currently expects that Change's Net Cash Assets will be less than $7.5 million. Change's Net Cash Assets may be more or less than the $7.1 million of Net Cash Assets it was estimated to hold on July 31, 2003 or December 31, 2003. The estimated total number of shares of common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger excludes (per the merger agreement): - 645 shares of common stock of the combined company issuable upon conversion of Change's Series A convertible preferred stock outstanding at September 30, 2003; - 14,585,747 shares of common stock of the combined company issuable upon exercise of Change stock options outstanding at September 30, 2003, with a weighted average exercise price of $0.08 per share; - 25,856,252 shares of common stock of the combined company issuable upon exercise of Change stock warrants outstanding at September 30, 2003, with a weighted average exercise price of $0.49 per share; - an estimated 18,044,664 shares of common stock of the combined company issuable upon exercise of Neurologix stock options outstanding at September 30, 2003, which are to be exchanged in the Merger for Change stock options having a post-merger weighted average exercise price of approximately $0.01 per share; and - an additional 5,414,253 shares of common stock of the combined company reserved for future issuance under Change's 2000 Stock Option Plan. The estimated total number of shares of common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger includes: - 4,500,000 shares of Change that were received by Change as part of the sale of Canned Interactive on June 30, 2003, and subsequently canceled. CHANGE WILL ISSUE A PRESS RELEASE 48 HOURS PRIOR TO THE SPECIAL MEETING ANNOUNCING AN ESTIMATE OF THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF CHANGE COMMON STOCK TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER BASED ON THE VALUE OF CHANGE'S NET CASH ASSETS AT THAT TIME. TREATMENT OF STOCK OPTIONS The merger agreement provides that Change and Neurologix will take all actions necessary to cause each outstanding option to purchase Neurologix common stock to be converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of Change common stock equal to the number of shares of Neurologix common stock covered by the Neurologix option multiplied by the exchange ratio provided in the merger agreement. The exercise price per share of the Change common stock issuable upon exercise of an option to purchase Neurologix common stock will be the exercise price per share of Neurologix common stock under the option divided by the applicable exchange ratio. Each option held under the existing stock option plan of Change will remain outstanding but will fully vest as a result of the closing of the Merger, which is a change of control under such plan. EXCHANGE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES Exchange agent. Following the Merger, Change will cause the exchange agent to mail to each record holder of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock a letter of transmittal with instructions regarding how to exchange Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock 41 certificates for certificate(s) representing shares of Change common stock. Upon surrender of its Neurologix stock certificate to the exchange agent, each Neurologix stockholder will be entitled to receive a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Change common stock, based upon the applicable exchange ratio provided in the merger agreement, rounded to the nearest whole number. The Neurologix stock certificates will then be canceled. NEUROLOGIX STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT SEND STOCK CERTIFICATES TO EITHER NEUROLOGIX OR THE COMBINED COMPANY UNTIL THEY RECEIVE THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ACCOMPANYING INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE EXCHANGE AGENT. Fractional shares. Change will not issue any fractional shares of its common stock in the Merger. Each Neurologix stockholder will be entitled to receive that number of whole shares of Change common stock, based upon the applicable exchange ratio provided in the merger agreement, rounded to the nearest whole number in exchange for the number of shares of Neurologix common and Series B convertible preferred stock held in aggregate. Lost certificates. If a Neurologix stockholder's stock certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the stockholder will only be entitled to obtain shares of Change common stock by (i) providing appropriate evidence as to such loss, theft or destruction and as to the stockholder's ownership of such certificate, and (ii) the receipt by Change and the exchange agent of reasonably appropriate and customary indemnification in an amount sufficient to protect against claims related to the Neurologix certificates, all as explained in the letter of transmittal that will be sent to Neurologix stockholders. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES Change, Subcorp and Neurologix have made customary representations and warranties to each other in the merger agreement, relating, among other things, to: - their organization and qualification; - their authority to deliver and execute the merger agreement and its legal force and effect; - the absence of conflict between the merger agreement and their charter documents, existing agreements they have entered into or the laws applicable to them; - governmental filings and consents in relation to the merger agreement; - their capital structure; - litigation issues; - the possession of all franchises, licenses, permits and other approvals required to conduct their respective businesses and compliance with laws; - the absence of events that could result in material adverse changes; - tax matters; - their title to their respective assets; - intellectual property rights; - the absence of any undisclosed liabilities; - environmental matters; - their use of other business names; - employee benefit plans; - material contracts and debt instruments; - the absence of any funded debt; - insurance matters; 42 - absence of brokers; - absence of affiliate transactions of a nature required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and - full disclosure. Change and Subcorp have also made representations and warranties to Neurologix in the merger agreement relating to: - documents Change has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other public disclosures; - the absence of any default by Change under any existing contract; - the absence of any current operations; - Change's Net Cash Assets (as such term is defined in the merger agreement); and - payments to Change's former chief executive officer. Neurologix has also made representations and warranties to Change and Subcorp in the merger agreement relating to: - the accuracy of its financial statements; - the requisite stockholder vote to approve the Merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; and - matters relating to the regulations of the FDA. None of the representations and warranties made in the merger agreement will survive the closing of the Merger. The merger agreement does not provide either of Change, Subcorp, Neurologix or their respective stockholders with any right to seek indemnification for any breach of the merger agreement by Change, Subcorp or Neurologix. MATERIAL COVENANTS INTERIM OPERATIONS OF CHANGE, SUBCORP AND NEUROLOGIX Under the merger agreement, each of Change, Subcorp and Neurologix has agreed that, between the time the merger agreement was executed and the closing of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, each will, and will cause each of their respective subsidiaries to, subject to limited exceptions: - use reasonable commercial efforts to keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and all material rights, franchises, intellectual property rights and goodwill relating or pertaining to its businesses; - conduct its operations only in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; - maintain its books, accounts and records in accordance with past practice; - properly pay, timely file and consult with one another with respect to all tax returns required to be filed by it; - use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain all authorizations, consents, waivers, approvals or actions and to make all filings and applications necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and cause the respective conditions to the other's obligation to close the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement to be satisfied; and - promptly notify the other parties to the merger agreement in writing if, prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, to its knowledge (i) any of the representations and warranties made by it in the merger agreement cease to be materially accurate and complete or 43 (ii) it fails to comply with or satisfy any material covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under the merger agreement. In addition, each of Change, Subcorp and Neurologix agreed that, between the time the merger agreement was executed and the closing of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, each will not, and will cause each of their respective subsidiaries to not, subject to limited exceptions: - change any method or principle of accounting in a manner that is inconsistent with past practice; - take or omit to be taken any action, or permit any of its respective affiliates to take or to omit to take any action which would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect; - take any action that would likely result in any representation or warranty made by a party becoming false or inaccurate, other than those representations or warranties made as of a particular date; - consummate the acquisition of any entity; - issue, sell or pledge shares of its capital stock or other equity securities, warrants or options or incur any indebtedness to any party, other than upon stock option exercises, the conversion of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock, Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock and the Existing Neurologix Note or the issuance and sale for cash of not more than $1 million of additional equity securities by Neurologix; - other than the adoption of the amendments to Change's certificate of incorporation described elsewhere in this proxy statement and prospectus, effect any change to its certificate of incorporation or bylaws; - make, declare or pay any dividend or distribution on, or, directly or indirectly, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire, any shares of its capital stock or any securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any shares of its capital stock; - increase the compensation or fringe benefits payable or to become payable to, pay any compensation or benefits not required by any existing plan or arrangement, or grant any severance or termination pay to, or enter into any employment or severance agreement with any of its officers, directors or employees, or take any action to accelerate rights under any collective bargaining or any employee benefit plan for the benefit or welfare of any of its directors, officers or current or former employees, except in each case in accordance with past practice, or to the extent required by applicable law or any existing agreement and except for increases in connection with new hires, promotions or other bona fide changes in job status, or pursuant to existing collective bargaining agreements; - incur, assume or prepay any long-term or short-term indebtedness, other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice under existing lines of credit; - assume, guarantee, endorse or otherwise become liable or responsible for the obligations of any other party; - make any loans, advances or capital contributions to, or investments in, any other party except in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement; - make any loans to its directors, officers or shareholders; - waive, release, assign, settle or compromise any material rights, claims or litigation or pay, discharge or satisfy any material liabilities, except in connection with the disposition and/or termination of the business and operations of Change and its subsidiaries; or - propose, authorize, agree or commit to take any of the above-listed actions. 44 STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING Change agreed to take all actions necessary in accordance with applicable laws to obtain the consent and approval of its stockholders to the Merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, including its board of directors' recommending to its stockholders approval of each. CHANGE BOARD OF DIRECTORS On or prior to the closing of the Merger, Change agreed to deliver to Neurologix a written resignation from each officer and director of Change (with the exception of two directors that Change is entitled to designate to the combined company's board of directors under the merger agreement), effective as of the effective time of the Merger. Change agreed that at the effective time of the Merger, its board of directors will consist of no more than two directors designated by Change, four members of Neurologix's then current board of directors plus up to three additional members to be designated by Neurologix. Upon the closing of the Merger, Change agreed that its board of directors will be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in size as is practicable, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. At the first annual meeting of the combined company's stockholders following the closing of the Merger, the term of office of the Class I directors will expire and Class I directors will be elected for a full term of three years. At the second annual meeting of the combined company's stockholders following the closing of the Merger, the term of office of the Class II directors will expire and Class II directors will be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of the combined company's stockholders following the closing of the Merger, the term of office of the Class III directors will expire and Class III directors will be elected for a full term of three years. When the Merger becomes effective, each of Change's designated directors will be designated as Class III directors and each of the other directors will be designated by Neurologix, in its discretion, as either Class I, Class II or Class III directors as necessary to make each class of directors as nearly equal in size as possible. NON-SOLICITATION OF COMPETING TRANSACTIONS Under the merger agreement, Change agreed that it will not, and will cause its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives to not, during the term of the merger agreement, solicit, initiate, encourage or facilitate, or furnish or disclose non-public information in furtherance of, any inquiries or the making of any proposal with respect to any recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other business combination involving Change or Subcorp, or acquisition of any capital stock of Change or Subcorp or 5% or more of the assets of Change or any of its subsidiaries in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, or any acquisition by Change or Subcorp of any material assets or capital stock of any other party, or any liquidation of Change or Subcorp, or any combination of the foregoing (each a "competing transaction"). Additionally, Change agreed that it would not and will cause its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives to not, during the term of the merger agreement, enter into any agreement requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by the merger agreement. However, Change and its board of directors may ask questions of, consider and clarify a proposal from, and conduct a due diligence investigation of, any third party making an unsolicited competing transaction, solely for the purpose of evaluating such competing transaction, if the Change board of directors or any committee thereof determines, after consultation with Change's financial advisor and its legal counsel, that (i) such third party has submitted to Change a competing transaction that has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in a superior proposal (as defined in the merger agreement) and (ii) the failure to participate in such process would constitute a breach of the Change board of directors' fiduciary duties under applicable law. After notifying Neurologix of such development and negotiating in good faith with Neurologix during the subsequent two business days to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of the merger agreement such that the competing transaction is no longer a superior proposal, Change may participate in discussions or negotiations with the third party if the Change board of directors concludes after the negotiations with Neurologix that the competing transaction continues to be a superior proposal. 45 Neurologix is bound by a similar non-solicitation provision under the merger agreement. Although it is not provided a fiduciary out similar to that of Change described immediately above, a specific exception from Neurologix's agreement to not solicit a competing transaction provides that Neurologix may raise up to $1.0 million of additional equity between August 13, 2003 and the closing of the Merger.

SENIOR SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE The following summarizes the material provisions of the senior secured promissory note due April 30, 2004 issued by Neurologix in favor of Change. On August 13, 2003, in connection with execution of the merger agreement, Change loaned Neurologix $750,000 and Neurologix issued a senior secured promissory note due April 30, 2004, in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000 in favor of Change and on December 18, 2003, in connection with amendment no. 1 to the merger agreement, Change loaned Neurologix an additional $350,000, and Neurologix issued an amended and restated senior secured promissory note due June 30, 2004 in the aggregate principal amount of $1,100,000 (as amended and restated, the "New Note"). The New Note accrues interest at a rate of 4% per year from the date of issuance until repayment of the principal amount and accrued interest in full. Neurologix may prepay any portion of the principal amount and accrued interest without penalty or premium. To secure the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on the New Note, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, Neurologix granted a first priority lien and security interest in all of its assets pursuant to a security agreement between Change and Neurologix, which the Parties amended in connection with the additional loan by Change to Neurologix (as amended the "security agreement"). The security agreement is described in more detail below. To ensure that the security interest granted by Neurologix to Change is entitled to priority over all of Neurologix's existing secured indebtedness, Change, the holders of the Existing Neurologix Note (Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., Dr. Martin J. Kaplitt and Clark A. Johnson) and Neurologix entered into a subordination and intercreditor agreement, which the parties amended in connection with the additional loan to Neurologix (as amended, the "subordination agreement"). The subordination agreement is described in more detailed below. Under the New Note, Change may accelerate the note and declare the principal of and accrued interest on the New Note due and immediately payable if any of the following events of default occurs and is continuing: - Neurologix defaults in the payment of the principal or interest under the New Note; - Neurologix defaults in the observance or performance of any covenant, condition or agreement under the New Note, security agreement or subordination agreement and such default continues for 15 days; - Neurologix commences any proceeding or other action seeking an order for relief, or seeking to adjudicate it bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, composition, extension or other such relief with respect to it or its debts, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for all or any substantial part of its assets (each a "bankruptcy action"); or - Neurologix becomes the debtor named in any bankruptcy action which results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment remains undismissed or undischarged for a period of 60 days.

The security agreement terminates upon the payment in full by Neurologix to Change of all principal of and accrued interest on the New Note. 53 SUBORDINATION AND INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT The following summarizes the material provisions of the subordination agreement. Neurologix is presently indebted to Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., Dr. Martin J. Kaplitt and Clark A. Johnson pursuant to the Existing Neurologix Note which is secured by the grant of a security interest by Neurologix in some of its properties and assets. As described in this proxy statement and prospectus, concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Neurologix issued the New Note. Neurologix's obligations under the New Note are secured by all of the assets of Neurologix pursuant to the security agreement described above. To ensure that the security interest granted by Neurologix to Change under the security agreement is entitled to priority over any security interest granted to secure Neurologix's existing indebtedness, Change, Palisade Private Partnership, L.P., Dr. Martin J. Kaplitt, Clark A. Johnson and Neurologix entered into the subordination agreement. Under the subordination agreement, the repayment of the Existing Neurologix Note is expressly subordinated and made junior to the payment of the principal amount, all interest and any other amounts due on the New Note. Accordingly, the New Note must first be paid in full before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities, obligations or other property, is made in respect of the Existing Neurologix Note. In addition, so long as the New Note remains unpaid, Change may at all times and in its sole discretion, exercise any and all powers and rights, including, without limitation, the right to foreclose, upon any asset or property of Neurologix in the possession of any secured party without the necessity of obtaining the consent or approval of such secured party. Prior to the payment in full of the New Note, holders of the Existing Neurologix Note may not, without the prior written consent of Change, take any of the following actions: - amend, modify or supplement the Existing Neurologix Note or any agreement relating to the Existing Neurologix Note in any manner; - sell, transfer, pledge, assign, grant a security interest in, or otherwise dispose of or encumber its interest as a secured party or mortgagee with respect to any assets and properties of Neurologix in the possession of such secured party; or - accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Existing Neurologix Note, or take any action towards collection of all such indebtedness or enforcement of any rights, powers or remedies under the existing indebtedness or any agreement related to the existing indebtedness. The subordination agreement terminates upon the earlier of (i) the payment in full by Neurologix to Change of all principal of and accrued interest on the New Note and (ii) the conversion of the Existing Neurologix Note pursuant to the terms of the voting agreement. 54 PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO CHANGE'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER In connection with the Merger, the Change board of directors has adopted a resolution to amend selected provisions of the Change certificate of incorporation.

This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code, applicable Department of Treasury regulations, judicial authority and administrative rulings and practice, all as in effect as of the date of this proxy statement and prospectus, as well as representations, covenants and assumptions as to factual matters made by, among others, Change and Neurologix. Future legislative, judicial, or administrative changes or interpretations, which may or may not be retroactive, or the failure of any such factual representations, covenants, or assumptions to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects, may adversely affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions described in this discussion. MATERIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER The material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger will be as follows: - the Merger will be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes and Change, Subcorp and Neurologix will each be a party to that reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code; - no gain or loss will be recognized by Change, Subcorp or Neurologix as a result of the Merger, except for amounts resulting from any required change in accounting methods or any income or deferred gain recognized under the relevant consolidated return regulations; 56 - no gain or loss will be recognized by holders of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock upon their receipt of Change common stock in exchange for their Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock in the Merger; - the aggregate tax basis of the shares of Change common stock that Neurologix stockholders receive in exchange for their Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock in the Merger will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of their Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock exchanged in the Merger; - the holding period for shares of Change common stock received in exchange for shares of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock in the Merger will include the holding period of the Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock exchanged, provided such Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock was held as a capital asset at the time the Merger is completed; and - if holders of Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock exercise dissenters' rights, such stockholders generally will recognize taxable gain or loss based upon the difference between the amount of cash received by such stockholder and the tax basis of their Neurologix common stock or Series B convertible preferred stock exchanged; this gain or loss generally will constitute long-term capital gain or loss if the stock was held by such Neurologix stockholder as a capital asset for more than one year.

The last reported sale price of Change's common stock on the OTC electronic bulletin board on August 12, 2003, the day before the Merger was announced, was $0.03. The following table lists, for the fiscal quarters indicated, the range of high and low bid prices per share of Change's common stock in U.S. dollars, as reported on the OTC electronic bulletin board. HIGH LOW ----- ----- FISCAL 2001: First Quarter............................................. $2.00 $0.25 Second Quarter............................................ 0.31 0.07 Third Quarter............................................. 0.14 0.02 Fourth Quarter............................................ 0.10 0.03 FISCAL 2002: First Quarter............................................. 0.07 0.04 Second Quarter............................................ 0.07 0.03 Third Quarter............................................. 0.02 0.01 Fourth Quarter............................................ 0.03 0.02 FISCAL 2003: First Quarter............................................. 0.02 0.02 Second Quarter............................................ 0.09 0.01 Third Quarter............................................. 0.08 0.03 Fourth Quarter............................................ 0.06 0.03 As of September 30, 2003, 177,503,919 shares of Change's common stock were issued and outstanding, held by approximately 458 record holders. The last reported sale price of Change's common stock on the OTC electronic bulletin board on December 31, 2003 was $0.04. Since 1999, Change has not paid cash dividends on its common stock and does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The combined company anticipates that for the foreseeable future, its earnings, if any, will be retained for use in the operation of its business and that no cash dividends will be paid on its capital stock. Any determination to pay cash dividends after the Merger is completed will be at the discretion of the combined company's board of directors and will be dependent upon its results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by the board of directors. NEUROLOGIX No established public trading market exists for any class of Neurologix's capital stock. As of September 30, 2003, Neurologix's common stock was held by seven record holders, its initial series of convertible preferred stock was held by three record holders and its Series B convertible preferred stock was held by 12 record holders. Neurologix has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock. Neurologix currently expects to retain future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of its business and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends. The agreements governing Change's loan to Neurologix prohibit the payment of dividends by Neurologix without Change's prior approval. 58 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The merger agreement provides for Change to complete a reverse acquisition of Neurologix. Under the merger agreement, Subcorp will merge with and into Neurologix, with Neurologix being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change. Change will change its corporate name to Neurologix, Inc. Under the merger agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of Neurologix common stock and preferred stock will automatically convert into Change common stock. The actual number of shares of Change common stock to be issued in the Merger is directly related to Change's Net Cash Assets as of the closing of the Merger. As of July 31, 2003 and December 31, 2003, Change estimated that its Net Cash Assets at closing would be approximately $7.1 million. Accordingly, had the Exchange Ratio been determined as of July 31, 2003, or December 31, 2003 it would have been 70.2127 resulting in an aggregate of 391,275,156 shares of Change common stock being issued to existing Neurologix stockholders and approximately 32% and 68% of the common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger being held by existing Change stockholders and existing Neurologix stockholders, respectively. In addition, Neurologix has outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 257,000 shares of its common stock, which, in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, would automatically convert into options to purchase an aggregate of 18,044,664 shares of Change common stock based on an estimated Exchange Ratio of 70.2127. Since the stockholders of Neurologix will receive the majority of the voting shares of the combined company, and the board of directors and management of the combined company will be controlled by members of the board of directors and management of Neurologix, the Merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Neurologix will be the acquirer and Change will be the acquiree for accounting purposes. Following the Merger, none of Change's current net operating loss carryforwards will be available to the combined company due to a lack of continuity of business enterprise under Section 382 of the Code.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of Neurologix and the historical balance sheet of Change, giving effect to the Merger as if it had been consummated on September 30, 2003.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Description of transaction and basis of presentation: (1) On August 13, 2003, Change, Subcorp and Neurologix entered into the merger agreement, which provides for Change to complete a reverse acquisition of Neurologix. Under the merger agreement, Subcorp will merge with and into Neurologix, with Neurologix being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change. Under the merger agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of Neurologix common stock and preferred stock will automatically convert into Change common stock. The actual number of shares of Change common stock to be issued in the Merger is directly related to Change's Net Cash Assets as of the closing of the Merger. As of July 31, 2003 or December 31, 2003 Change estimated that its Net Cash Assets at closing would be approximately $7.1 million. Accordingly, had the Exchange Ratio been determined as of July 31, 2003 and December 31, 2003 it would have been 70.2127 resulting in an aggregate of 391,275,156 shares of Change common stock being issued to existing Neurologix stockholders and approximately 32% and 68% of the common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger being held by existing Change stockholders and existing Neurologix stockholders, respectively. In addition, Neurologix has outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 257,000 shares of its common stock, which, in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, would automatically convert into options to purchase an aggregate of 18,044,664 shares of Change's common stock based on an estimated Exchange Ratio of 70.2127. Since the stockholders of Neurologix will receive the majority of the voting shares of the combined company, and the board of directors and management of the combined company will be controlled by members of the board of directors and management of Neurologix, the Merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Neurologix will be the acquirer and Change will be the acquiree for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Neurologix will be recorded at their historical carrying values and the assets and liabilities of Change will be recorded at their fair values which approximate their historical values. The reported financial condition and results of operations of Neurologix after the Merger will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of Change. (2) Pro forma adjustments: (a) To adjust for the conversion of the Existing Neurologix Note payable into 27,128,432 shares of common stock at $0.001 par value. (b) To adjust for the conversion of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock into 154,819,004 shares of common stock at $0.001 par value. (c) To adjust for the conversion of Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock into 34,457,163 shares of common stock at $0.001 par value. (d) To reflect the issuance of 174,870,557 shares of common stock to the current holders of Neurologix's common stock at $0.001 par value. (e) To eliminate the equity of Change. (f) To reflect purchase accounting adjustments comprised of: (1) Purchase price, totaling $7,751,000 including: (a) 177,503,920 shares of common stock to be retained by Change shareholders, valued at $6,745,000; (b) 40,441,999 options and warrants to purchase Change common stock that will be retained by current holders, valued at $356,000; 63 (c) 645 shares of preferred stock to be retained by Change shareholders, valued at $0; (d) Estimated transaction costs of the acquiror, totaling $650,000. (2) Goodwill of $345,000 represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of Change net assets at September 30, 2003, which is directly attributable to the transaction. This amount has been calculated on a pro forma basis as the difference between the purchase price of $7,751,000 and the net assets of Change at September 30, 2003 of $7,406,000. Goodwill recognized upon consummation of the Merger will be based upon the fair value of the Change net assets at that date. (g) To eliminate the $750,000 loan to Neurologix by Change. 64 MANAGEMENT OF THE COMBINED COMPANY AFTER THE MERGER DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS Set forth below is information concerning each individual who will serve on the combined company's initial board of directors and each individual to be appointed as an executive officer of the combined company upon completion of the Merger: NAME AGE POSITION WITH THE COMBINED COMPANY ---- --- ---------------------------------- Martin Kaplitt, M.D....................... 64 President and Director, Class II Mark Hoffman.............................. 42 Secretary, Treasurer and Director, Class II Clark Johnson............................. 72 Director, Class I Jan Robinson Willinger.................... 64 Director, Class I Austin M.

In accordance with the policies of the educational institutions with which Dr. During is associated, Dr. During is entitled to receive a portion of the income that such institutions receive from patents for which Dr. During is listed as an inventor, which includes patents licensed to Neurologix. BENEFIT PLANS THE EXISTING CHANGE INCENTIVE PLAN Outstanding Change stock options are governed by Change's current incentive plan and option agreements between Change and the optionees, Change's 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The following description of the Plan merely summarizes certain provisions and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Plan. Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide a means through which Change and its affiliates may attract able persons to enter and remain in the employ of Change and affiliates and to provide a means whereby employees, directors and consultants of Change and its affiliates can acquire and maintain Change common stock ownership, thereby strengthening their commitment to the welfare of Change and its affiliates and promoting an identity of interest between shareholders and these directors, employees and consultants. Administration. The Plan is administered by Change's compensation committee. Eligible Participants. Any employee, director or consultant to Change or an affiliate of Change is eligible to participate in the Plan. However, Change does not presently allow holders of warrants of Change to participate in the Plan. The compensation committee has the sole and complete authority to determine the participants to whom stock options shall be granted (a "Participant" or the "Participants"). Shares of Change Common Stock Authorized under the Plan. The Plan authorizes the grant of stock options to Participants with respect to a maximum of 20,000,000 shares of Change's common stock, which awards may be made in the form of (a) non- qualified stock options and (b) stock options intended to qualify as incentive stock options ("ISOs") under Section 422 of the Code. In any calendar year, a Participant may not receive stock options for more than 3,000,000 shares of Change common stock, subject to adjustments in a manner that will not cause the stock options granted under the Plan to fail to qualify as "performance-based compensation" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code. To the extent the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the date of grant) of stock for which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of Change) exceeds $100,000, such excess incentive stock options shall be treated as non-qualified stock options. If any award granted under the Plan is forfeited, or if an award has expired, terminated or been canceled for any reason whatsoever (other than by reason of exercise or vesting), then the shares of Change common stock covered by such award may be granted to another Participant pursuant to the terms of the Plan, to the maximum extent permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code. Effective Date and Duration of the Plan. The Plan was approved by the Change board of directors on March 28, 2000 and became effective on the date of its approval by stockholders of Change. The term during which awards may be granted under the Plan expire on March 28, 2010. Stock Option Price. The exercise price per share of Change common stock for each stock option is set by Change's compensation committee at the time of grant. The compensation committee is entitled to set an 69 exercise price below the fair market value of a share of Change common stock at the date of grant solely in the event of it decides to grant non qualified stock options to a director of Change. Manner of Exercise and Form of Payment. No shares of Change common stock may be delivered pursuant to any exercise of an option until payment in full of the aggregate exercise price therefor is received by Change. Stock options which have become exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written notice of exercise to the compensation committee accompanied by payment of the stock option price. The stock option price shall be payable in cash and if the compensation committee so permits, partially or completely in shares of Change common stock valued at the fair market value at the time the stock option is exercised; provided, however, that such shares are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and have either been held by the Participant for six months, previously acquired by the Participant on the open market or meet such other requirements as the compensation committee may determine necessary in order to avoid an accounting earnings charge in respect of the stock option) or, in the discretion of the compensation committee, either (i) in other property having a fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the stock option price, or (ii) by such other method as the compensation committee may permit. Vesting, Stock Option Period and Expiration. Stock options vest and become exercisable in such manner and on such date or dates determined by the compensation committee and expire after such period, not to exceed ten years, as may be determined by the compensation committee all as set forth in an applicable stock option agreement; provided, that the compensation committee has the authority to accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding option at such time and under such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. If a stock option is exercisable in installments, such installments or portions thereof which become exercisable shall remain exercisable until the stock option expires. If an incentive stock option is granted to a Participant who owns stock representing more than ten percent of the voting power of all classes of stock of Change, the stock option period may not exceed five years from the date of grant of such option and the stock option price shall be at least 110 percent of the fair market value (on the date of grant) of the stock subject to the stock option. Change of Control or Reorganization. Except to the extent reflected in a particular stock option agreement: (a) In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), notwithstanding any vesting schedule, all stock options shall become immediately exercisable with respect to all shares subject to such stock option. (b) The obligations of Change under the Plan are binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the Merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Change, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to substantially all of the assets and business of Change. Change agreed to make appropriate provisions for the preservation of Participants' rights under the Plan in any agreement or plan which it may enter into or adopt to effect any such Merger, consolidation, reorganization or transfer of assets. Transferability. Each award and each right under any award, is exercisable only by the Participant during the Participant's lifetime or if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant's guardian or legal representative. No award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against Change or any of its affiliates; provided that the designation of a beneficiary will not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. The Plan provides for limited exceptions to the non-transferability of the awards (and the rights attached thereto) received under the Plan, such exceptions to be inserted in the relevant stock option agreement or amendment thereto. Amendment. The Change board of directors may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without shareholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement applicable to the Plan (including as necessary to prevent the 70 stock options granted under the Plan from failing to qualify as "performance-based compensation" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code); and provided further that any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination that would impair the rights of any Participant or any holder or beneficiary of any stock option theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant, holder or beneficiary. Federal Income Tax Consequences Relating to the Plan. The following summary of the federal income tax consequences of the grant and exercise of stock options, both ISOs and non qualified stock options, awarded under the Plan, and the disposition of Change common stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of such stock options, is intended to reflect the current provisions of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The summary is not intended to be a complete statement of applicable laws, it does not address state and local tax considerations nor does it address the tax consequences of options granted to individual tax payers located outside the U.S. and is not intended as tax advice to any person. Moreover the U.S. Federal income tax consequences to any particular individual may differ from those described herein by reason of the particular circumstances of such individual. No income is realized by an optionee upon grant of a non-qualified stock option. Upon exercise of a non-qualified stock option, the optionee recognizes ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the underlying stock over the option exercise price (the "Spread") at the time of exercise. The Spread is deductible by Change for federal income tax purposes subject to the possible limitations on deductibility under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code of compensation paid to executives designated in those sections. The optionee's tax basis in the underlying shares acquired by exercise of a non-qualified stock option equals the exercise price plus the amount taxable as compensation to the optionee. Upon sale of the shares received by the optionee upon exercise of the non-qualified stock option, any gain or loss is generally long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period. The optionee's holding period for shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a non-qualified stock option will begin on the date of exercise of such option. Pursuant to currently applicable rules under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, the grant of an option (and not its exercise) to a person who is subject to the reporting and short-swing profit provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (a "Section 16 Person") begins the six-month period of potential short-swing liability. The taxable event for the exercise of an option that has been outstanding at least six months ordinarily will be the date of exercise. Under current rules promulgated under Section 16(b), the six month period of potential short-swing liability may be eliminated if the option grant (i) is approved in advance by the Change board of directors (or a committee composed solely of two or more non-employee directors) or (ii) approved in advance, or subsequently ratified, by Change's shareholders no later than the next annual meeting of shareholders. If the grant satisfies either of the conditions described in clause (i) or (ii) above, the taxable event will ordinarily be the date of exercise. However, if an option is exercised by a Section 16 Person within six months after the date of grant and neither of the conditions described in clause (i) or (ii) above are satisfied, taxation will be deferred until the date which is six months after the date of grant, unless the person has filed a timely election pursuant to section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed on the date of exercise. The Code requires that, for ISO treatment, shares acquired through exercise of an ISO cannot be disposed of before two years from the date of grant of the option and one year from the date of exercise. ISO holders generally incur no federal income tax liability at the time of grant or upon exercise of such options. However, the Spread at exercise will be an "item of tax preference" which may give rise to "alternative minimum tax" liability for the taxable year in which the exercise occurs at the time of exercise. If the optionee does not dispose of the shares before two years following the date of grant and one year following the date of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon disposition of the shares will constitute long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be. Assuming both holding periods are satisfied, no deduction is permitted to be taken by Change for federal income tax purposes in connection with the grant or exercise of the option. If, within two years following the date of grant or within one year following the date of exercise, the holder of shares acquired through the exercise of an ISO disposes of such shares, the optionee will generally realize ordinary taxable compensation at the time of such disposition equal to the difference 71 between the exercise price and the lesser of the fair market value of the stock on the date of initial exercise or the amount realized on the subsequent disposition, and such amount is generally deductible by Change for federal income tax purposes, subject to the possible limitations on deductibility under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to executives designated in those sections. The payment of an optionee of the exercise price, in full or in part, with previously acquired shares will not affect the tax treatment of the exercise described above. No gain or loss generally will be recognized by the optionee upon the surrender of the previously acquired shares of Change, and shares received by the optionee, equal in number to the previously surrendered shares, have the same tax basis as the shares surrendered to Change and have a holding period that includes the holding period of the shares surrendered. The value of shares received by the optionee in excess of the number of shares surrendered to Change is taxable to the optionee. Such additional shares have a tax basis equal to the fair market value of such additional shares as of the date ordinary income is recognized and have a holding period that begins on the date ordinary income is recognized. In general, Section 162(m) of the Code denies a publicly held corporation a deduction for federal income tax purposes for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year per person to its chief executive officer and the four other officers whose compensation is disclosed in its proxy statement, subject to certain exceptions. Options will generally qualify under one of these exceptions if they are granted under a plan that states the maximum number of shares with respect to which options may be granted to any employee during a specified period, the exercise price is not less than the fair market value of the common stock at the time of grant and the plan under which the options are granted is approved by stockholders and is administered by a compensation committee comprised of outside directors. The Plan is intended to satisfy these requirements with respect to grants of options to covered employees. THE EXISTING NEUROLOGIX INCENTIVE PLAN Outstanding Neurologix stock options and restricted stock awards are governed by the Neurologix, Inc. 2001 Stock Plan (the "Stock Plan"), option agreements between Neurologix and the optionees and restricted stock award agreements between Neurologix and restricted stock grantees. Purpose. The purposes of the Stock Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility within Neurologix, to provide incentives to existing employees, directors and consultants of Neurologix and to promote the success of Neurologix's business. Administration. The Stock Plan may be administered by the Neurologix board of directors or a committee of the Neurologix board of directors (either, as applicable, the "Administrator"). Currently, the Stock Plan is administered by the entire Neurologix board of directors. Eligible Participants. Any employee, director, consultant or other independent advisor to Neurologix or an affiliate of Neurologix is eligible to participate in the Stock Plan. However, the Administrator has the sole and complete authority to determine the participants to whom stock options shall be granted (each, a "Participant"; collectively, the "Participants"). Shares of Neurologix Common Stock Authorized under the Stock Plan. The maximum aggregate number of shares of Neurologix's common stock that can be optioned and sold or granted under the Stock Plan is 1,400,000 shares. Awards may be made in the form of (a) non-qualified stock options ("NSOs"); (b) stock options intended to qualify as incentive stock options ("ISOs") under Section 422 of the Code; or (c) restricted stock awards. If a single optionee becomes eligible in any given year to exercise ISOs (under all plans of Neurologix and any parent or subsidiary of Neurologix) for shares having a fair market value (determined as of the date of grant) in excess of $100,000, those options representing the excess of fair market value over $100,000 shall be treated as NSOs. For the purpose of deciding which options apply to shares that "exceed" the $100,000 limit, ISOs shall be taken into account in the same order as granted. The shares issued under the Stock Plan may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired Neurologix common stock. If a stock option expires, becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full or is surrendered in connection with an option exchange program, the unpurchased shares that were subject to such option become available 72 for future grant or sale under the Stock Plan (unless the Stock Plan has terminated); provided, however, that shares that actually have been issued under the Stock Plan, whether upon exercise of a stock option or stock purchase right, may not be returned to the Stock Plan and may not become available for future distribution under the Stock Plan; except that if shares of restricted common stock of Neurologix are repurchased by Neurologix at their original purchase price, such shares do become available for future grant or sale under the Stock Plan. Effective Date and Duration of the Stock Plan. The Stock Plan was approved by joint resolution of the Board and stockholders of Neurologix, dated December 12, 2001, and became effective on that date. The term during which awards may be granted under the Stock Plan expires on December 11, 2011. Stock Option Price. The exercise price per share of Neurologix common stock for each stock option is set by the Administrator at the time of grant. With respect to the issuance of NSOs, the Administrator is entitled to set an exercise price below the fair market value of a share of Neurologix common stock at the date of grant. With respect to the issuance of ISOs to an employee who, at the time the ISO is granted, owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of Neurologix, Inc., the per-share exercise price may be no less than 110% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the date of grant. Manner of Exercise and Form of Payment. No shares of Neurologix common stock may be delivered pursuant to any exercise of an option until payment in full of the aggregate exercise price therefor is received by Neurologix, together with appropriate proof that the person exercising the option (if other than the optionee) has the right to effect such exercise. Stock options that have become exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written notice of exercise to the Administrator accompanied by payment of the stock option price. The Administrator is responsible for determining the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an option, including the method of payment. In the case of an ISO, the Administrator determines the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration may consist entirely of cash, check, promissory note, such other shares of Neurologix stock owned by the optionee as meet certain restrictions, consideration received by Neurologix under a cashless exercise program implemented by Neurologix in connection with the Stock Plan, a reduction in the amount of any Neurologix liability to the optionee, including any liability attributable to the optionee's participation in any Neurologix-sponsored deferred compensation program or arrangement, any combination of the foregoing methods of payment or such other consideration or methods of payment as are permitted by applicable law. Optionees are required to satisfy all applicable income and employment tax withholding requirements at the time of exercise. Vesting, Stock Option Period and Expiration. Stock options vest and become exercisable in such manner and on such date or dates as determined by the Administrator. They expire after such period, not to exceed ten years, as may be determined by the Administrator, all as set forth in an applicable stock option agreement. In the event that the applicable option agreement does not provide for a vesting schedule, an option vests and becomes exercisable as to one-third of the shares subject to the option on each of the first three anniversaries of its date of grant. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, the vesting of an optionee's options is tolled during any unpaid leave of absence of that optionee. Restricted Stock Awards: Rights and Lapse of Forfeiture Provisions. Except with respect to the ability to transfer or encumber restricted shares, the recipient of a restricted stock award receives all of the rights of a stockholder of Neurologix, with respect to the shares that are the subject of the award, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive any cash dividends. Certificates for shares of unrestricted stock are delivered to grantees only if and after the period of forfeiture with respect to such shares expires. The risk of forfeiture with respect to restricted stock awards lapses in such manner and on such date or dates as determined by the Administrator, all as set forth in an applicable restricted stock award agreement. In the event that the restricted stock award agreement does not specify when the risk of forfeiture shall expire with respect to the subject restricted shares, the Stock Plan provides that the risk of forfeiture lapses as to one-third of the shares subject to the restricted stock award agreement on the each of the first three anniversaries of the grant of the restricted stock award. 73 Changes in Capitalization; Dissolution or Liquidation; Change in Control. Except to the extent reflected in a particular stock option agreement or restricted stock award agreement: (a) Subject to any required action by the stockholders of Neurologix, the number of shares of Neurologix common stock covered by each outstanding option and restricted stock award (and the number of shares of Neurologix common stock authorized for issuance under the Stock Plan but as to which no options or restricted stock awards have been granted or that have been returned to the Stock Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an option or forfeiture of a restricted stock award), as well as the price per share of Neurologix common stock covered by each such outstanding option or restricted stock award, is to be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Neurologix common stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, or reclassification of the Neurologix common stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Neurologix common stock effected without receipt of consideration by Neurologix. (b) In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of Neurologix, the Administrator is to notify each optionee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator, in its discretion, may provide for an optionee to have the right to exercise his or her option until 10 days prior to such transaction as to all of the optioned Neurologix common stock covered thereby, including shares as to which the option otherwise would not be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any Neurologix repurchase option applicable to restricted shares shall lapse as to all such shares, provided that the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent not been previously exercised, options terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action. (c) In the event of a Merger or consolidation of Neurologix with or into another corporation or any other entity or the exchange of substantially all of the outstanding stock of Neurologix for shares of another entity or other property in which, after either transaction, the prior stockholders of Neurologix own less than 50% of the voting shares of the continuing or surviving entity, or in the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Neurologix, (either event, a "Change in Control"), the Stock Plan provides that each outstanding option shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the Administrator determines that the successor corporation or a parent or a subsidiary of the successor corporation has refused to assume or substitute an equivalent option or right for each outstanding option, the optionees shall vest fully in and have the right to exercise each outstanding option as to all of the optioned Neurologix common stock covered thereby, including shares that otherwise would not be vested or exercisable. All outstanding options are considered assumed if, following the consummation of the Change in Control, the option confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of stock subject to the option immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Neurologix common stock for each share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the option to be, for each share of optioned stock subject to the option, solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent or subsidiary equal in fair market value to the per-share consideration received by holders of common stock in the Change in Control. Transferability. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an option or restricted stock award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the optionee, only by the optionee. In a case in which the Administrator makes an option or restricted stock award transferable, the Administrator may include in that option or restricted stock such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator may deem appropriate. 74 Amendment and Termination. The Neurologix board of directors may at any time amend, alter, suspend, or terminate the Stock Plan. No amendment, alteration, suspension, or termination of the Stock Plan may impair the rights of any optionee, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the optionee and Neurologix. Termination of the Stock Plan does not affect the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it with respect to options granted under the Stock Plan prior to the date of termination. Federal Income Tax Consequences Relating to Stock Plan Options. The following summary of the federal income tax consequences of the grant and exercise of stock options, both ISOs and NSOs, awarded under the Stock Plan and the disposition of Neurologix common stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of such stock options is intended to reflect the current provisions of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The summary is not intended to be a complete statement of applicable laws, it does not address state and local tax considerations and it does not address the tax consequences of options granted to individual taxpayers located outside the U.S. It is not intended to be tax advice to any person. Moreover the U.S. federal income tax consequences to any particular individual may differ from those described herein by reason of the particular circumstances of such individual. (a) No income is recognized by an optionee upon the grant of an NSO. Upon exercise of an NSO, the optionee recognizes ordinary compensation income at the time of exercise in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the underlying stock over the option exercise price (the "Spread"). The Spread generally is deductible by Neurologix for federal income tax purposes. The optionee's tax basis in the underlying shares acquired by exercise of an NSO equals the exercise price plus the amount taxable as compensation to the optionee. Upon sale of the shares received by the optionee due to the exercise of the NSO, any gain or loss generally is long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the holding period. If the Optionee holds NSO shares for at least one year, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. The optionee's holding period for shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an NSO begins on the date of exercise of such option. (b) The Code requires that, for ISO treatment, shares acquired through exercise of an ISO cannot be disposed of before two years from the date of grant of the option and one year from the date of exercise. ISO holders generally incur no federal income tax liability at the time of grant or upon exercise of their ISOs. However, the Spread at exercise will be an "item of tax preference," which may give rise to alternative minimum tax liability for the taxable year in which the exercise occurs. If the optionee does not dispose of the shares before two years following the date of grant and one year following the date of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon disposition of the shares will constitute long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be. Assuming both holding periods are satisfied, no deduction is permitted to be taken by Neurologix for federal income tax purposes in connection with the grant or exercise of the option. If, within two years following the date of grant or within one year following the date of exercise, the holder of shares acquired through the exercise of an ISO disposes of such shares, the optionee generally will recognize ordinary compensation income at the time of such disposition. Such income will be equal to the lesser of (x) the excess of the fair market value of the stock on the date of initial exercise over the exercise price and (y) the excess of the amount realized on the subsequent disposition over the exercise price. The amount of such recognized income generally is deductible by Neurologix for federal income tax purposes. (c) The payment by an optionee of the exercise price, in full or in part, with previously acquired shares will not affect the tax treatment of the exercise described above. No gain or loss generally will be recognized by the optionee upon the surrender of the previously acquired shares of Neurologix and shares received by the optionee, equal in number to the previously surrendered shares, will have the same tax basis as the shares surrendered to Neurologix and will have a holding period that includes the holding period of the shares surrendered. The value of shares received by the optionee in excess of the number of shares surrendered to Neurologix is taxable to the optionee. Such additional shares have a tax basis equal to the fair market value of such additional shares as of the date ordinary income is recognized and have a holding period that begins on the date ordinary income is recognized. 75 Federal Income Tax Consequences Relating to Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted stock awards under the Stock Plan are transfers of property, subject to a "substantial risk of forfeiture," in exchange for services. Consequently, the federal tax consequences of the receipt of a restricted stock award are governed by section 83 of the Code. Absent an "83(b) election" by the grantee of the restricted stock award, taxable income will be measured and recognized by the grantee at the time or times on which Neurologix's repurchase option lapses. Such gain will be equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the stock as to which the repurchase option has lapsed (with fair market value measured at the time of such lapse) over the amount, if any, paid by the grantee for such stock at the time of grant. An 83(b) election may be filed by the grantee with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of the grantee's receipt of the restricted shares. The consequence of the election is that the grantee will be taxed, pursuant to section 83(b) of the Code, at the time of grant on the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the restricted shares (with fair market value measured at the time of grant) over the amount paid, if any, by the grantee for the restricted shares. A grantee who makes such an election will not recognize income at the time or times that Neurologix's repurchase option with respect to such shares lapses, notwithstanding that the fair market value of such shares may increase between the date of grant and the date or dates on which Neurologix's repurchase option lapses. Neurologix generally may take a tax deduction with respect to a restricted stock award at the time and to the extent that the grantee of such restricted stock award recognizes income. 76 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS CHANGE Members of the board and management of Change have interests in the Merger and the transactions related to it.

Certain statements contained within this discussion constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward -- Looking Statements." ACCOUNTING POLICIES The preparation of Change's financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires Change 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. Change's estimates, judgments and assumptions are continually evaluated based on available information and experience. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Prior to the divestiture of Papke-Textor, Inc. d/b/a Canned Interactive ("Canned Interactive"), Change derived its revenues from services performed under one of two pricing arrangements: time-and-materials or fixed-price. The services performed under either of these arrangements were substantially identical. Revenues were recognized for fixed-price arrangements in the period services were rendered using the percentage-of-completion method, based on the percentage of costs incurred to date to total estimated projects costs, provided Change had the ability to produce reasonably dependable estimates, collection of the resulting receivable was probable and no significant obligations remained. The cumulative impact of any revision in estimates of the cost to complete and losses on projects in process were reflected in the period in which they became known. Canned Interactive's projects were typically short term in nature, generally spanning less than 90 days. Revenues were recognized for time-and-materials based arrangements in the period when the underlying services were rendered, provided collection of the resulting receivable was probable and no significant obligations remained. Provisions for estimated project specific losses on both types of contracts were made during the period in which such losses became probable and could be estimated. To date, such losses have not been significant. Any estimation process, including that used in preparing contract accounting models, involves inherent risk. Change reduced the inherent risk relating to revenue and cost estimates in percentage-of-completion models through corporate policy, approval and monitoring processes. Risks relating to service delivery, productivity and other factors were considered in the estimation process. For all client contracts, provisions for estimated losses on individual contracts were made in the period in which the loss first became apparent. Change maintained allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make payments. If the financial condition of Change's customers deteriorated, resulting in the customers' inability to make payments, additional allowances were required. Additionally, Change assesses the need for provisions for estimated uncollectible amounts with respect to its loans receivable resulting from the inability of an issuer to make payments when they become due. Change bases this estimate on the financial condition of the issuer, trends in its results of operations or other changes in circumstances. If the financial condition of an issuer deteriorates, resulting in such issuer's inability to fulfill its obligation under the promissory note evidencing such a loan, additional allowances will be required. Change has reduced its deferred tax assets to an amount that Change believes is more likely than not to be realized, which was $0 at December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003. In so doing, Change has estimated future taxable losses in determining the valuation allowance. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or these estimates are adjusted in future periods, Change may need to modify its valuation allowance which could materially affect its financial position and results of operations. 81 OVERVIEW AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Prior to commencement of the operational divestiture described below for the year ended December 31, 2001, Change was a provider of a broad range of professional consulting services, including e-services and technology strategy, online branding, web architecture and design systems integration, system architecture and outsourcing. On December 4, 2001 Change entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Franklin Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation. On July 1, 2002 Change received a notice of termination from Franklin Capital terminating the proposed merger. Change made two investments in 2001 and one in the first quarter of 2002 in Excelsior Radio Networks, Inc. (f/k/a eCom Capital, Inc.), a subsidiary of Franklin Capital, which produces, syndicates and distributes radio programs and related services. Change purchased a promissory note and warrant for $2,250,000 from Excelsior in August 2001 and in December 2001 purchased 250,000 common shares of Excelsior from Franklin Capital for $250,000. In April 2002, Change purchased an additional promissory note from Excelsior for $4,708,000 in conjunction with the purchase by Excelsior of Dial Communication Group Inc. and Dial Communications Group LLC. The $2,250,000 promissory note was paid in full, together with related accrued interest, on October 1, 2002. The $4,708,000 note was repaid in full, together with related accrued interest, on January 21, 2003. On January 15, 2003, Change sold the Excelsior shares and the Excelsior warrant to Sunshine III, LLC for total consideration of approximately $648,000 in cash. On September 30, 2002, the Change board of directors announced the adoption of a plan of liquidation and dissolution in order to maximize stockholder value and noted that if no suitable business opportunities became available to it, subject to stockholder approval, it would commence liquidation in 2003. However, the plan permits the Change board of directors to amend, modify or abandon the plan, notwithstanding stockholder approval, if the board determines doing so would be in the best interests of Change and its stockholders. On June 17, 2003, William Avery, Change's then president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer, resigned. Mr. Avery had an employment agreement dated September 17, 2001 governing the terms and conditions of his employment. On June 17, 2003, the date of Mr. Avery's resignation, Change and Mr. Avery entered into a separation agreement and general release. Change will pay the severance he is entitled to under the separation agreement and general release, totaling $140,000, and has recorded a charge in the Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 for the value of expected payments and benefits payable to the former executive. Change announced on June 18, 2003 that it signed a letter of intent in connection with its proposed Merger with Neurologix. On August 13, 2003, Change entered into the merger agreement. The consummation of the Merger remains subject to the approval of Change's stockholders, which Change will be seeking at its next meeting of stockholders currently planned to take place in the first quarter of 2004. In the event the Merger is consummated, Change expects to abandon the plan of liquidation and dissolution. If the Merger is not consummated, Change expects to pursue the plan of liquidation and dissolution previously adopted. In connection with the Merger, Change, Subcorp, Neurologix, and certain securityholders of Neurologix entered into the voting agreement. Pursuant to the voting agreement, all holders of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock, certain holders of Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock and the holders of a promissory note issued by Neurologix agreed to convert such preferred stock and promissory note into Neurologix common stock prior to the Merger. In addition, the securityholders agreed to vote all of their Neurologix capital stock in favor of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Such securityholders, who hold a majority of Neurologix's outstanding shares of common stock, initial series of convertible preferred stock and Series B convertible preferred stock have approved the Merger. Concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Change lent to Neurologix the principal amount of $750,000. The loan is due April 30, 2004, accrues interest at a rate of 4% per annum, is secured by all of the assets of Neurologix and is senior to all existing indebtedness of Neurologix. In connection with an amendment to the Merger Agreement, on November 14, 2003, Change agreed to loan Neurologix an 82 additional $350,000 and to extend the due date to June 30, 2004. On December 18, 2003, Change funded the additional loan. On June 30, 2003, Change sold to Textor Family Limited Partnership all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Canned Interactive. As a result of the divestiture, Change has no continuing revenue generating operations. OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONS Canned Interactive was Change's sole revenue generating subsidiary from December 2001 through June 30, 2003. Canned Interactive is based in Los Angeles, California and designs and produces interactive media such as digital video discs (DVDs) and web sites, primarily for entertainment, consumer goods, sports and technology companies. Most theatrical films, including new and library releases, are now released in DVD format. Canned Interactive designed interactive content for those titles, enriching the viewer experience and creating value for Canned Interactive's clients. Canned Interactive also used its design and technology skills to create and enhance web sites with interactive and streaming content. Agreements entered into in connection with time-and-materials projects were generally terminable by the client upon 30-days' prior written notice and clients were required to pay Change for all time, materials and expenses incurred by Change through the effective date of termination. Agreements entered into in connection with fixed-price projects were generally terminable by the client upon payment for work performed and the next progress payment due. Canned Interactive's costs consisted primarily of compensation and related costs of personnel dedicated to customer assignments. Project personnel costs also included fees paid to subcontractors for work performed in connection with projects and non-reimbursed travel expenses. Change's selling, general and administrative costs consist primarily of compensation and related costs of the management and administrative functions, including finance and accounting, marketing, human resources and internal information technology, the costs of Change's facilities and other general corporate expenses. Change's equity based compensation expense is comprised of amortization of the deferred compensation associated with the grant of stock options to the Change board of directors and a former President and Chief Executive Officer whose employment was terminated by the board in July 2001. Such cost is measured as the difference between the exercise price of options granted and the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of measurement and is being recognized as expense over the vesting period of the options. Also included in equity based compensation is a charge, totaling $90,000, associated with the modification of the former Chief Executive's options upon his resignation in June 2003. Change incurred approximately $358,000 and $394,000 in equity based compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES Change evaluated acquisitions based on numerous quantitative and qualitative factors. Quantitative factors include historical and projected revenues and profitability, geographic coverage and backlog of projects under contract. Qualitative factors include strategic and cultural fit, management skills, customer relationships and technical proficiency. INSYS On November 8, 2001 Change sold a 51% voting interest in InSys, a wholly-owned subsidiary, to a member of its management team in exchange for $50,000 and concurrently forgave approximately $400,000 of advances to InSys. In addition, Change loaned InSys $100,000 evidenced by a promissory note. This note bears interest at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offer Rate plus 2%. Pursuant to the separation agreement and general release, dated as of June 17, 2003, by and between Change and William B. Avery, Change transferred the remaining 49% voting interest in InSys as well as the promissory note issued by InSys to William B. Avery effective October 1, 2003. 83 RAND INTERACTIVE CORPORATION On November 2, 2001 Change sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of RAND, a wholly-owned subsidiary, to a member of its management team in exchange for 375,039 shares of Change common stock and a warrant to purchase such amount of shares of RAND common stock that equals, at the time of exercise, 30% of the issued and outstanding shares of RAND common stock on a fully diluted basis. The warrant has an aggregate exercise price of $1.00, is exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events and expires on November 3, 2013. IGUANA In connection with the acquisition of Iguana in March 2001, 2,300,000 shares of the Change's common stock were placed in escrow. The related contingency period expired in July 2002, and the fair value of such shares was included in the aggregate purchase price. As of December 31, 2001 all employees of Iguana had been terminated and the subsidiary's operating activities had ceased. The remaining net book value of Iguana intangibles was $0. Accordingly, Change recorded additional impairment charges in July 2002 totaling $69,000 representing the fair value of such shares. CANNED INTERACTIVE On June 12, 2001, Change acquired Canned Interactive, a Los Angeles based media and entertainment interactive agency, for approximately $1,100,000 in cash, including acquisition costs, and 6,436,552 shares of Change common stock, valued at approximately $1,000,000. The business combination was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Also in connection with the acquisition of Canned Interactive, $200,000 in cash and 715,172 shares of the Change's common stock were placed in escrow. The related contingency period expired in December 2002, at which time the cash and the then fair value of the shares, totaling $214,000, was included in the aggregate purchase price. On June 30, 2003, Change sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of Canned Interactive to Textor Family Limited Partnership in exchange for 4,500,000 shares of Change's common stock owned by Textor Family Limited Partnership, with a fair market value of $170,000. In connection with such sale, all inter-company loans in excess of $300,000 were converted by Change into equity of Canned Interactive without the issuance to Change of any additional capital stock or the granting of any right to receive any additional equity in Canned Interactive. Additionally, Change received $300,000 from Canned Interactive as payment in full of the outstanding inter-company loans. BROADSTREAM AND NETPRO In May 2001, Broadstream completed a recapitalization whereby the holders of its Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock exchanged their Series A shares for shares of Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The recapitalization modified the conversion ratio, policies regarding dividends and voting rights for Series A-1 holders. No additional consideration was paid by Change or any other preferred shareholder in connection with this transaction. As a result of the recapitalization the voting interest of common shareholders was reduced from 31% to 13%. Also in May 2001, in connection with the recapitalization, Change transferred 1,191,569 shares of Broadstream's Series A-1 convertible redeemable preferred stock to Adelson Investors, LLC, another shareholder of Broadstream. This transfer is accounted for as a contribution by Change of such shares to Broadstream in exchange for no consideration. Subsequent to the recapitalization, and non-reciprocal share transfer, Change owned 6,434,596 shares of Broadstream Series A-1 convertible redeemable preferred stock, representing an approximately 43% equity interest (calculated on an as-if-converted basis) and 49% voting interest. On August 15, 2001 Change purchased a secured convertible promissory note from Broadstream in exchange for $600,000 in connection with an aggregate $1,600,000 bridge loan financing consummated by Broadstream. The aggregate bridge loan financing was secured by all of Broadstream's assets. The note also 84 contained certain conversion provisions in the event Broadstream closed a new round of financing or entered into a change of control transaction. On November 30, 2001 Change assigned its note to a newly formed entity, NetPro Holdings Inc. in exchange for 13,674,753 shares of NetPro Series A-1 convertible redeemable participating preferred stock. On November 30, 2001 as a result of the application of the equity method, the net book value of the note approximated $0. No gain or loss was recorded as a result of this exchange. Concurrent with this transaction, NetPro foreclosed on the note and elected to take possession of all of Broadstream's assets in full satisfaction of the notes. Broadstream remains in existence but is not conducting any business. On December 24, 2001, Change purchased 1,585,479 shares of NetPro Series B-1 convertible redeemable participating preferred stock in exchange for $200,000 in connection with a larger ongoing financing effort by NetPro. On January 10, 2002, Change invested an additional $100,000 in NetPro Series B-1 stock and on March 7, 2002 Change invested a final $100,000 in NetPro Series B-1 stock. On March 14, 2002, the board of directors of NetPro voted to suspend all of the company's business operations and immediately terminate substantially all of its employees due to NetPro's loss of significant clients and associated revenues. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 Revenues. In connection with the divestiture of Canned Interactive by Change, revenues are now included in discontinued operations. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists principally of costs directly incurred in the delivery of services to clients, primarily consisting of compensation of billable employees. Billable employees are full time employees and sub-contractors whose time spent working on client projects is charged to that client at agreed-upon rates. Billable employees were Change's primary source of revenue. In connection with the divestiture of Canned Interactive by Change, such costs are now included in discontinued operations. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, professional services fees, facilities costs and advertising and promotional costs. General and administrative expenses decreased from $745,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $730,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2003 and from $2,667,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to $2,275,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This decrease was primarily a result of the decreased rent expense associated with facilities abandoned in the second quarter of 2002 and a decrease in professional services fees as a result of the termination in 2002 of the proposed merger with Franklin Capital. Equity in Losses and Impairment of Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates. Equity in losses and Impairment of investments in unconsolidated affiliates was $22,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2002 and $3,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2003, and $604,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and $110,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates is a result of Change's minority ownership in Broadstream, NetPro and InSys that have been accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, Change's proportionate share, calculated on an as-if-converted basis, of the investee's operating losses and amortization of the Change's net excess investment over its equity in the investee's net assets is included in equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates. Impairment of investments in unconsolidated affiliates is a result of the cessation of NetPro's and LiveSky's operations in 2002. Change evaluated the recoverability of its investments in light of the carrying values relative to future cash flows. As a result of this analysis, in 2002 Change recorded impairment charges that reduced the remaining NetPro and Livesky investment balances to $0. Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income was $221,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2002 and $26,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2003, and $628,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and $95,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The decrease in interest and dividend income for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was attributable to a decrease 85 in Change's notes receivable as a result of repayment. Interest income in future periods may fluctuate as a result of the average cash Change maintains and changes in the market rates of Change's cash equivalents. Change expects that the average cash balance may continue to decrease as Change continues to incur operating losses. Income Taxes. Change has available estimated net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes of approximately $23,839,475 through the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, which expire on various dates from 2003 through 2023. A full valuation allowance has been established due to uncertainty whether the Company will generate sufficient taxable earnings to utilize the available net operating loss carryforwards. A portion of Change's net operating loss carryforwards may also be limited due to significant changes in ownership under Section 382 of the Code. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 Revenues. Revenues decreased from $4,596,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2002. This decrease is a result of Change's divestitures of operating businesses. In connection with the divestiture of Canned Interactive by Change, related revenues have been reclassed to discontinued operations. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists principally of costs directly incurred in the delivery of services to clients, primarily consisting of compensation of billable employees. Billable employees are full time employees and sub-contractors whose time was spent working directly on client projects. Billable employees were Change's primary source of revenue. Such costs decreased from $6,088,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001, to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in cost is a result of the divestitures of InSys and RAND, and the downsizing of Iguana's operations. In connection with the divestiture of Canned Interactive by Change, related costs have been reclassed to discontinued operations. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, professional services fees, facilities costs, and advertising and promotional costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $12,894,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 to $3,342,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of the decreased number of employees, resulting in decreased compensation, decreased professional services fees, and decreases in other costs associated with the limited scope of operations over the prior year. Impairment Losses. As a result of the aforementioned terminations and divestitures in 2001, coupled with historical and projected operating and cash flow losses, Change evaluated the recoverability of its acquired intangible assets and goodwill by comparison of the carrying values relative to related future cash flows. As a result of this analysis, Change recorded impairment charges totaling $7,263,000 and $69,000 in the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, respectively, which are included in the "Impairment Losses" in the Statement of Operations. Severance Costs. Severance costs were incurred as a result of the aforementioned terminations in 2001 and totaled $1,326,000 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Equity in Losses and Impairment of Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates. Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates results from Change's minority ownership in Broadstream, NetPro and InSys which are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, Change's proportionate share, calculated on an as-if-converted basis, of the investee's operating losses, and amortization of Change's net excess investment over its equity in the investee's net assets, is included in equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates. Impairment of investments in unconsolidated affiliates is a result of the cessation of NetPro's and LiveSky's operations in 2002. Change evaluated the recoverability of its investments in light of the carrying values relative to future cash flows. As a result of this analysis, Change recorded impairment charges that reduced the remaining investment balances to $0. Equity in losses and impairment of investments in unconsolidated affiliates was $5,546,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 and $549,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. 86 Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income was $859,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 and $743,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in interest and dividend income is attributable to a decrease in Change's invested cash balance as it has funded its ongoing operations and investments, partially offset by interest income earned on notes receivable. Interest income in future periods may fluctuate as a result of the average cash Change maintains and changes in the market rates of interest, and management expects that the average cash balance may continue to decrease as Change continues to incur operating losses. Income Taxes. Change has available estimated net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes of approximately $22,000,000 through the year ended December 31, 2002, which expire on various dates from 2002 through 2022. A valuation allowance has been established due to uncertainty as to whether Change will generate sufficient taxable earnings to utilize the available net operating loss carryforwards. A portion of Change's net operating loss carryforwards may also be limited due to significant changes in ownership under Section 382 of the Code. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 Revenues. Revenues increased from $1,370,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $4,596,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001. This increase is the result of the contribution to revenues of acquired companies' revenues streams. As a result of Change's divestitures and continued unfavorable market conditions for its professional services, revenues from historical service offerings decreased on a sequential basis during 2001. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased from $1,119,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $6,088,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001. Cost of revenues consists primarily of compensation of billable employees, travel, subcontractor costs and other costs directly incurred in the delivery of services to clients. Billable employees are full time employees and subcontractors whose time are spent servicing client projects. Also included in Cost of Revenues is the amortization of certain purchased intangible assets, representing the value of customer relationship and workforces acquired. In connection with certain acquisitions, Change recorded intangible assets representing the value ascribed to the customer lists and assembled workforces of the acquired companies. The aggregate amortization of these intangible assets totaled $50,000 and $654,000, for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001 respectively, and is included in Cost of Revenues. As a result of Change's divestitures, terminations and unfavorable market conditions, cost of revenues decreased on a sequential basis during 2001. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, professional services fees, facilities costs and advertising and promotional costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $3,305,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $12,894,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001. These increases were primarily the result of increased compensation, increased professional services fees, increased facility costs and increases in other costs associated with the growth of Change's business and operations over the prior year. Impairment Losses. As a result of the aforementioned terminations, coupled with historical, current and projected operating and cash flow losses, Change evaluated the recoverability of its acquired intangible assets and goodwill by comparison of the carrying value relative to future cash flows. As a result, Change recorded impairment charges totaling $7,263,000 which are included in the Impairment Losses section of the accompanying Statement of Operations. Severance Costs. Severance costs were $0 and $1,326,000 in the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Equity in Losses of Unconsolidated Affiliates. Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates was $1,732,000 and $5,546,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates resulting from Change's minority ownership in Broadstream, Inc., NetPro Holdings, Inc. and InSys LLC have been accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, Change's proportionate share, calculated on an as-if-converted basis, of the investee's 87 operating losses and amortization of Change's net excess investment over its equity in the investee's net assets is included in equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates. Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income was $1,469,000 and $859,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. The decrease in interest income over the prior year was attributable to a decrease in Change's invested cash balance, as it has funded its ongoing operations. Income Taxes. Change had available estimated net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $20,000,000 as of December 31, 2001, which expire on various dates from 2001 through 2021. A valuation allowance had been established due to uncertainty as to whether Change will generate sufficient taxable earnings to utilize the available net operating loss carryforwards. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historical Source of Funding. On March 28, 2000, an investor group led by Pangea Internet Advisors, LLC purchased 4,000,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock for net proceeds to Change of approximately $39,450,000 in cash. Also on March 28, 2000, certain other investors purchased warrants to purchase 41,250,000 shares of Change common stock for $100,000. Working Capital and Results of Operations. Change had $5,963,000 in cash and cash equivalents available as of September 30, 2003, invested predominantly in instruments that are highly liquid, investment grade securities that have maturities of less than 45 days. Beginning in the third quarter of 2001, in response to continued unfavorable market conditions for its services, Change embarked on a review of its operations with the goal of formulating a course of action to minimize near term losses, capital expenditures and reduce cash outflows. As of September 30, 2003, Change has no revenue generating operations, a limited number of employees and has significantly reduced fixed expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, Change used $1,523,000 to fund operations. In August 2003, Change loaned Neurologix an aggregate principal amount of $750,000. The note bears interest at 4% per year, is secured by substantially all of Neurologix's assets and matures on April 30, 2004. In connection with an amendment to the merger agreement, Change has agreed to loan Neurologix an additional $350,000, which was funded on December 18, 2003 and is due June 30, 2004. Change's future contractual obligations at September 30, 2003 were as follows: AMOUNTS DUE IN FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------------------- 2007 AND 2003 2004 2005 2006 THEREAFTER ---- ----- ----- ----- ---------- (IN THOUSANDS) Operating leases................................. $ 28 $ -- $ -- $ -- $ -- Capital Leases................................... 2 1 -- -- -- ---- ----- ----- ----- ----- $ 30 $ 1 $ -- $ -- $ -- Change intends to fund these obligations from its cash on hand at September 30, 2003. In January, 2003, Change sold its shares of Excelsior common stock and the Excelsior warrant to Sunshine III, LLC for total consideration of approximately $648,000 in cash. Also in January, 2003 the $4,708,000 note from Excelsior was repaid in full, together with related accrued interest totaling $142,000. Given Change's current level of operations, Change's capital resources are sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures relating to existing operations for at least the next 12 months. However, if the Merger is consummated, the plan of liquidation and dissolution adopted by the Change board of directors is abandoned and Change's operations require significant cash outlays to fund operations, Change may be required to seek additional sources of financing or to sell certain assets. If the plan of liquidation and dissolution adopted by the Change board of directors is pursued, Change will begin the process of negotiating settlements with respect to its remaining obligations and liabilities. In the event Change is unable to negotiate successfully the termination of these obligations, Change may have less or no cash proceeds to distribute to its stockholders. These matters raise substantial doubt about Change's ability to continue as a going concern. 88 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Change's primary objective in investing in securities and other instruments is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, Change maintains a portfolio of cash and cash equivalents and money market funds. As of December 31, 2002, Change held cash and cash equivalents with an average maturity of 45 days or less. 89 BUSINESS OF CHANGE Arinco Computer Systems Inc., the predecessor to Change, was incorporated on March 31, 1978. Arinco Computer Systems was organized principally to serve its subsidiary operations, which included the sale of telecommunications equipment and services and the retail sales of computers. From 1985 to March 2000, Arinco Computer Systems had no business operations. In March 2000, an investor group acquired control of Arinco Computer Systems for the purpose of using Arinco Computer Systems to sell business consulting services. In September 2000, Arinco Computer Systems Inc. merged with and into Change, a wholly owned subsidiary. All of the stockholders of Arinco Computer Systems became stockholders of Change and Change redomesticated from New Mexico to Delaware. Change's sole consolidated subsidiaries are Iguana Studios, Inc., which has limited continuing operating activities, and CTP/N Merger Corp., which has no operating activities. Based on Change's assessment of the opportunities in the radio business, in 2001 the Change board of directors decided to merge with Franklin Capital and jointly develop and acquire network radio programming and sales and syndication businesses. On December 4, 2001, Change entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Franklin Capital. On July 1, 2002, Change received a notice of termination from Franklin Capital terminating the proposed merger. On September 30, 2002, the Change board of directors adopted a plan of liquidation and dissolution in order to maximize stockholder value and noted that if no suitable business opportunities became available to it, subject to stockholder approval, it would commence liquidation in 2003. However, the plan permits the Change board of directors to amend, modify or abandon the plan, notwithstanding stockholder approval, if the board determines doing so would be in the best interests of Change and its stockholders. On June 17, 2003, William Avery, Change's then president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer resigned. Mr. Avery had an employment agreement dated September 17, 2001 governing the terms and conditions of his employment. On June 17, 2003, Change and Mr. Avery entered into a separation agreement and general release. Change will pay Mr. Avery the severance he is entitled to under the separation agreement and general release, totaling $140,000, and has recorded a charge in its statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 for the value of expected payments and benefits payable to the former executive. On June 18, 2003, Change signed a Letter of Intent with Neurologix in connection with the proposed Merger. On August 13, 2003, Change entered into the merger agreement. The consummation of the Merger remains subject to the approval of the Change's stockholders, which Change will be seeking at its next meeting of stockholders currently planned to take place in the first quarter of 2004. In the event the Merger is consummated, Change expects to abandon the plan of liquidation and dissolution. If the Merger is not consummated, Change expects to pursue the plan of liquidation and dissolution previously adopted. In connection with the Merger, Change, Subcorp, Neurologix, and certain securityholders of Neurologix entered into the voting agreement. Pursuant to the voting agreement, all holders of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock, certain holders of Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock and the holders of a promissory note issued by Neurologix agreed to convert such preferred stock and promissory note into Neurologix common stock prior to the Merger. In addition, the securityholders agreed to vote all of their Neurologix capital stock in favor of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Such securityholders, who hold a majority of Neurologix's outstanding shares of common stock, initial series of preferred stock and Series B convertible preferred stock have approved the Merger. Concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Change lent to Neurologix the principal amount of $750,000. The loan is due April 30, 2004, accrues interest at a rate of 4% per annum, is secured by all of the assets of Neurologix and is senior to all existing indebtedness of Neurologix. In connection with an amendment to the merger agreement, on November 14, 2003, Change agreed to loan Neurologix an additional $350,000, and to extend the due date to June 30, 2004. On December 18, 2003, Change funded the additional loan. On June 30, 2003, Change sold to Textor Family Limited Partnership all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Canned Interactive. 90 PROPERTIES As of September 30, 2003, Change leased one floor of office space at 16 West 19th Street, New York, New York. Change currently sublets this space and the lease will expire in November, 2003. EMPLOYEES As of September 30, 2003, Change did not have any employees. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Change is subject to legal claims from time to time and is involved in litigation that has arisen in the ordinary course of its business. It is the opinion of Change's management that either it has adequate legal defenses to these claims or that any liability that might be incurred due to these claims will not, in the aggregate, exceed the limits of Change's insurance policies or otherwise result in any material adverse effect on Change's operations or financial position.

(2) Neurologix has never earned revenues nor declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock. 92 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF NEUROLOGIX OVERVIEW Neurologix is a development stage company, involved in the development of proprietary gene therapies for the treatment of disorders of the brain and central nervous system. Since Neurologix's inception in 1999, Neurologix has used its resources to conduct research and development activities, primarily for gene therapy treatments for Parkinson's disease and epilepsy and, to a lesser extent, for other diseases. At September 30, 2003, Neurologix had an accumulated deficit of approximately $5.1 million. Neurologix expects to incur additional losses in the future, and these losses may exceed its current cumulative losses. At September 30, 2003, Neurologix had cash and cash equivalents of $0.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2002, Neurologix used $1.1 million of cash for operating activities. This cash usage rate will likely increase in future periods as Neurologix continues Phase I clinical trials of its NLX gene therapy technology for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and expands its research and development of additional gene therapy technologies. To continue its research and development efforts and commercialize its gene therapy technologies, Neurologix may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. Neurologix does not know whether such additional financing will be available when needed, or on terms favorable to it or its stockholders. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES USE OF ESTIMATES Neurologix's preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires its management to make estimates and assumptions that affect its reported amounts of assets and liabilities, its disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and its reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Neurologix's actual results could differ from those estimates. CARRYING VALUE OF FIXED AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Neurologix's fixed assets and certain of its patents have been recorded at cost and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of those assets. If Neurologix becomes aware of facts that indicate one or more of those assets may be impaired, Neurologix assesses whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows. If Neurologix determines that an asset is impaired, Neurologix measures the amount of such impairment by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the present value of the expected future cash flows associated with the use of the asset. Adverse changes to Neurologix's estimates of the future cash flows to be received from a particular long-lived asset could indicate that the asset is impaired, and would require Neurologix to write down the asset's carrying value at that time. FAIR VALUE OF EQUITY INSTRUMENTS Neurologix follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), which allows companies to either expense the estimated fair value of stock options or to continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), but discloses the pro forma effect on net income (loss) as if the fair value of options had been expensed. Neurologix has elected to apply APB 25 in accounting for its employee stock option incentive plan. Neurologix has used the minimum value method as permitted by SFAS 123 to estimate the fair value of options granted to employees for such pro forma disclosures. 93 In accordance with SFAS 123, all other issuances of common stock, stock options or other equity instruments issued to employees and non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by Neurologix are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more readily measurable. Such fair value is measured at an appropriate date pursuant to the guidance in the consensus reached for EITF Issue No. 96-18 (generally, the earlier of the date the other party becomes committed to provide goods or services or the date the performance by the other party is complete) and capitalized or expensed as if Neurologix had paid cash for the goods or services. For purposes of determining the pro forma and historical values of options granted to employees and non-employees during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 using the minimum value method Neurologix used the following assumptions: - risk free interest rate of 4%, - estimated life of five years, - volatility of 0%, and - dividend yield of 0%. VALUATION OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS Neurologix regularly evaluates its ability to recover the reported amount of its deferred income taxes considering several factors, including its estimate of the likelihood that it will generate sufficient taxable income in future years in which temporary differences reverse. Due to the uncertainties related to, among other things, the extent and timing of future taxable income and the potential changes in the ownership of Neurologix, which could subject its net operating loss carryforwards to substantial annual limitations, Neurologix offset its net deferred tax assets by an equivalent valuation allowance as of December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002 Revenues Neurologix did not generate revenues for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. Costs and Expenses Research, Licensing and Scientific Consulting. Research, licensing and scientific consulting expenses were $950,472 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, and $525,830 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The 81% increase in research, licensing and scientific consulting expenses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, was attributable primarily to costs associated with Phase 1 clinical trials for Parkinson's disease which commenced in August 2003 and compensation and related expenses paid to the three scientists Neurologix hired in October 2002 for its laboratory in Newark, Delaware. The remaining research, licensing and scientific consulting expenses consisted of licensing fees and royalties Neurologix paid under licensing agreements with academic and medical institutions as well as consulting fees Neurologix paid to members of its scientific advisory board. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $540,027 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, and $248,665 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The 117% increase in general and administrative expenses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, was due primarily to the rent expenses associated with Neurologix's establishment of a laboratory in Newark, Delaware, and associated office costs, increased travel and depreciation expense as well as professional service fees. 94 Interest Income and Interest Expense. Interest income was $13,055 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003. Neurologix had no interest income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The increase in interest income during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, was primarily due to the interest earned on the proceeds of the sale of Neurologix's Series B convertible preferred stock during February and March 2002. Interest expense was $95,422 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, and $88,097 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The 8% increase in interest expense during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, was attributable to the higher average outstanding balance of the Existing Neurologix Note on which interest accrued during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001 Revenues Neurologix did not generate revenues during 2002 or 2001. Costs and Expenses Research, Licensing and Scientific Consulting. Research, licensing and scientific consulting expenses were $727,086 in 2002 and $528,750 in 2001. The 38% increase in cash expenses in 2002 compared to 2001 was primarily attributable to an increase in scientific consulting fees paid to members of the scientific advisory board, as well as compensation and related expenses that Neurologix incurred in hiring the three scientists in October 2002 for its laboratory in Newark, Delaware. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $485,981 in 2002 and $246,121 in 2001. This 97% increase in general and administrative expenses in 2002 was due to the rent expenses incurred as a result of Neurologix establishing a laboratory in Delaware in October 2002, and associated office costs, increased depreciation expenses as well as approximately $84,000 of additional legal and other professional fees. Interest Income and Interest Expense. Interest income was $14,798 in 2002. Neurologix had no interest income in 2001. This difference was due to the interest earned on the proceeds of the sale of Neurologix's Series B convertible preferred stock in February and March 2002. Interest expense was $118,098 in 2002 and $95,754 in 2001. The 23% increase in interest expense during 2002 was attributable to the higher average outstanding balance of the Existing Neurologix Note on which interest accrued during 2002 compared to 2001. COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 Revenues Neurologix did not generate revenues during 2001 or 2000. Costs and Expenses Research, Licensing and Scientific Consulting. Research, licensing and scientific consulting expenses were $528,750 in 2001 and $875,690 in 2000. The 40% decrease in 2001 compared to 2000 was primarily attributable to a one-time payment of approximately $329,000 to a university to sponsor research related to Neurologix's business. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $246,121 in 2001 and $157,353 in 2000. This 86% increase in general and administrative expenses in 2001 was due to an increase in professional fees incurred by Neurologix in 2001. Interest Income and Interest Expense. Interest expense was $95,755 in 2001 and $24,438 in 2000. The 292% increase in interest expense during 2001 was attributable to the higher average outstanding balance of the existing note on which interest accrued during 2001 compared to 2000. 95 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Neurologix has incurred annual operating losses since its inception in February 1999. At September 30, 2003, Neurologix had an accumulated deficit of $5.1 million. Neurologix is in the development stage and has not generated any revenue as of September 30, 2003. As a result, Neurologix incurred net losses of approximately $5.1 million and negative cash flows from operating activities of $4.4 million during the period from February 12, 1999, date of inception, through September 30, 2003. In addition, Neurologix expects to continue to incur net losses and cash flow deficiencies through at least September 30, 2004. These matters raise substantial doubt about Neurologix's ability to continue as a going concern. To enable Neurologix to sustain its operations through at least September 30, 2004, and, ultimately complete its marketing and development program and achieve profitability, Neurologix expects to seek additional financing through the sale of debt and equity securities. In addition, on August 13, 2003 Neurologix entered into a merger agreement with Change. As of September 30, 2003, Change's assets consisted primarily of approximately $6.0 million in cash and cash equivalents. Neurologix believes that the Merger with Change will enable Neurologix to conduct the Phase I clinical trial of gene therapy that it has developed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and to continue the development of therapies for the treatment of other degenerative neurological disorders. From Neurologix's inception through September 30, 2003, Neurologix has financed its operations primarily using the proceeds from the sale of its capital stock and by borrowing $2 million from several of its shareholders. In October 1999, Neurologix raised $500,000 through the issuance of 147 shares of its initial series of convertible preferred stock. Each share of the initial series of convertible preferred stock is entitled to cumulative dividends at an annual rate equal to 10% of the liquidation preference per share, which currently is $3,401 per share. Each share of the initial series of convertible preferred stock is convertible into 15,000 shares of Neurologix's common stock. In the event that the shares of the initial series of convertible preferred stock are not converted into common stock on or prior to October 15, 2004, the holders of the shares of the initial series of convertible preferred stock shall be entitled to have Neurologix repurchase the holders' shares of the initial series of convertible preferred stock and to receive $3,401 per share (as adjusted for any share dividends, combinations or subdivisions with respect to such shares of the initial series of convertible preferred stock) plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on the repurchased shares of the initial series of convertible preferred stock. The holders of the initial series of convertible preferred stock have agreed to convert the initial series of convertible preferred stock into common stock concurrently with the closing of the Merger. In February and March 2002, Neurologix raised approximately $2.6 million through the issuance of 490,754 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock. Each share of the Series B convertible preferred stock is convertible into one share of common stock subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. Upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Neurologix, the holders of the Series B convertible preferred stock are entitled to receive $5.40 per share prior to any distribution by Neurologix of its assets to its other common and preferred stockholders. The holders of 79.2% of the outstanding shares of Series B convertible preferred stock have agreed to convert their shares of Series B convertible preferred stock into common stock immediately prior to the closing of the Merger. Those shares of Neurologix common stock and the remaining outstanding shares of Series B convertible preferred stock will be converted into Change common stock pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement. The Existing Neurologix Note evidences the loan to Neurologix of $2.0 million by several of its stockholders. The Existing Neurologix Note matures in October 2007 and is collateralized by certain intellectual property of Neurologix. The Existing Neurologix Note bears interest at 6% per year. Accrued interest on the Existing Neurologix Note at September 30, 2003, was $328,248. The persons having an interest in the Existing Neurologix Note have agreed to convert the Existing Neurologix Note into Neurologix common stock immediately prior to the closing of the Merger. Upon conversion, such persons would be entitled to receive a number of shares of Neurologix common stock determined by dividing (x) the sum of 96 (a) the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Existing Neurologix Note as of the date of the exchange plus (b) the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Neurologix Note as of the date of the exchange by (y) $6.00. On August 13, 2003, Neurologix entered into the merger agreement with Change. Concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Change loaned the Company $750,000 and the Company issued a promissory note to Change in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000 due April 30, 2004 and bearing interest at the rate of 4% per year. On November 14, 2003, the merger agreement was amended to increase the amount of the loan from $750,000 to $1,100,000 and to extend the term of the loan to June 30, 2004. Change funded the additional $350,000 amount of the loan on December 18, 2003. The note, as amended, will continue to accrue interest at 4% per year, be collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and be senior to all indebtedness of the Company. At September 30, 2003, Neurologix had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $887,000, compared with $2.0 million at September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of the use of cash to fund Neurologix's operations. For at least the next two years, Neurologix expects to focus its operations on conducting Phase I and Phase II clinical trials of its NLX gene therapy technology, researching gene therapy treatments for Parkinson's disease and epilepsy and preparing regulatory documentation including FDA submissions. Neurologix also expects to continue its research and development of additional gene therapy technologies. The majority of Neurologix's expenditures over this two-year period will most likely relate to the clinical trials of Neurologix's gene therapy treatment for Parkinson's disease and epilepsy. These activities may increase the rate at which Neurologix uses cash in the future as compared to the rates at which Neurologix used cash for operating activities during 2002 and the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Neurologix believes its existing working capital can fund its operations for the next several months. Neurologix's existing resources will not be sufficient to support the commercial introduction of any of its product candidates. Neurologix will need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or additional corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. Neurologix does not know whether additional financing will be available when needed, or on terms favorable to it or its stockholders. NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002 Net cash used in operating activities was $1.3 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, compared with $814,924 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The increase in cash usage was attributable to the higher level of operating expenses that Neurologix incurred during the nine- month period ended September 30, 2003. Net cash used in investing activities was $217,012 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, compared with $116,902 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the increase in patent-related expenses during the first nine months of 2003. Net cash used by financing activities was $741,246 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $2.8 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities was due to the issuance of $2.65 million of Series B convertible preferred stock in February and March 2002 compared to the issuance of a $750,000 promissory note to Change in August 2003. YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001 Net cash used in operating activities was $1.1 million in 2002, compared with $728,552 in 2001. The increase in cash usage was attributable to the higher level of operating expenses that Neurologix incurred in 2002. 97 Net cash used in investing activities was $171,342 in 2002, compared with $93,958 in 2001. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of equipment for $125,800 in 2002. Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.8 million in 2002, compared with $729,360 in 2001. The increase was due to the sale of $2.65 million of Series B convertible preferred stock in February and March 2002. YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 Net cash used in operating activities was $728,552 in 2001 compared with $1,023,374 in 2000. The decrease in cash usage in 2001 was attributable to the lower level of operating expenses that Neurologix incurred in 2001. Net cash used in investing activities was $93,958 in 2001, compared with $62,527 in 2000. The increase was primarily due to an increase in capitalized legal expenses regarding its patent prosecution efforts. Net cash provided by financing activities was $729,360 in 2001, compared with $1,075,600 in 2000. The decrease was due to the lower borrowings under the existing note in 2001 compared to 2000. In September 2003, Neurologix relocated its laboratory from Delaware to New York. The lease for the New York facility has a term of one year and provides for aggregate annual lease payments of $43,200. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS As of September 30, 2003, Neurologix's material future contractual obligations were as follows: PAYMENTS DUE BY PERIOD ---------------------------------------------------------- LESS THAN MORE THAN CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION TOTAL 1 YEAR 1-3 YEARS 3-5 YEARS 5 YEARS ---------------------- ---------- --------- --------- --------- --------- Capital Lease.......................... $ 31,376 $ 20,545 $ 10,831 $ $ Rental Lease........................... $ 43,200 $ 43,200 $ -- $ $ Payments under License, Research and Consulting Agreements................ $1,337,167 $546,750 $530,417 $260,000 $ RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Emerging Issues Task Force and the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants have issued certain accounting pronouncements that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, management of Neurologix does not believe that any of those pronouncements would have significantly affected Neurologix's financial accounting measurements or disclosures had they been in effect during the periods reported, and it does not believe that any of those pronouncements will have a significant impact on Neurologix's financial statements at the time they become effective. 98 BUSINESS OF NEUROLOGIX GENERAL Neurologix, Inc., is a development stage company, involved in developing treatments for disorders of the brain and central nervous system using gene therapy and other innovative therapies. These treatments are designed as alternatives to conventional surgical and pharmacological treatments. The Company's scientific founders, Dr. Matthew J. During and Dr. Michael G. Kaplitt, have collaborated for more than ten years in working with central nervous system disorders. Their research spans from animal studies (for gene therapy in Parkinson's disease) to completed Phase I human clinical trials (for Canavan's disease, a fatal degenerative disorder). Neurologix's initial development efforts are focused on gene therapy products for treating Parkinson's disease and epilepsy. Neurologix's core gene therapy technology, which it refers to as NLX, is currently being tested in a Phase I human clinical trial, sponsored by Neurologix, to treat Parkinson's disease. A Phase I clinical trial tests the safety, as opposed to efficacy, of a proposed treatment. The clinical trial is being conducted by Dr. During and Dr. Kaplitt. As part of this clinical trial, twelve patients with Parkinson's disease will undergo surgical gene therapy at The New York Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Medical College of Cornell University. The first of these surgeries was performed in August 2003 and marks the first time that gene therapy products have been used in a human to attempt to treat Parkinson's disease. A second patient underwent surgery as part of the clinical trial in September 2003. Neurologix expects the remaining ten surgeries to be conducted over the next year. With guidance during the approval process from the National Institutes of Health, or NIH, and the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, Dr. During and Dr. Kaplitt designed a clinical trial to minimize complications to patients participating in the study. Upon successful completion of the Phase I clinical trial, Neurologix expects to proceed with a Phase II human clinical trial to demonstrate the efficacy of NLX in treating Parkinson's disease. Neurologix was established in 1999. Between 1999 and 2002, Neurologix conducted its gene therapy research through sponsorship agreements with Thomas Jefferson University, The Rockefeller University and the University of Auckland. In October 2002, Neurologix opened a laboratory facility and hired a staff, with the objective of manufacturing its current gene therapy products for use in pre-clinical trials and to continue research and development of additional gene therapy products. In September 2003, Neurologix relocated this laboratory from Delaware to New York. BUSINESS STRATEGY Neurologix's objective is to develop and commercialize long-term, cost-effective treatments for disorders of the brain and central nervous system. Key elements of Neurologix's strategy are: - Focus resources on development of NLX technology. Neurologix intends to focus its research and development efforts on what it believes are achievable technologies having practical applications. Consequently, Neurologix expects to initially allocate substantially all of its resources and efforts to the development of its first-generation NLX products for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and epilepsy. - Focus on central nervous system disorders that are likely to be receptive to gene therapy treatment. To attempt to reduce the technical and commercial risks inherent in the development of new gene therapies, Neurologix intends to pursue treatments for neurological diseases for which: -- the gene function is defined; -- animal studies, including studies involving non-human primates, have indicated that gene therapy technology may be effective in treating the disease; -- partial correction of the disease is expected to be established; -- clinical testing can be conducted in a relatively small number of patients within a reasonably short time period. 99 - Design treatment strategies that are likely to receive relatively quick regulatory approvals and which minimize the risk to the patient. In this regard, Neurologix has benefited from guidance provided by the NIH and FDA in formulating Phase I of its current Parkinson's disease clinical trial. It is Neurologix's hope that successful completion of the Phase I trial will lead to more rapid approval of clinical trials for other products intended to demonstrate that gene therapy in the brain can be both safe and effective. Neurologix NLX gene therapy technology involves using adeno-associated virus, or AAV, vector to deliver genes to cells. AAV is not known to cause disease in humans. - Establish strategic relationships to facilitate research and manufacturing. Neurologix intends to seek to establish collaborative research and manufacturing relationships with universities and companies involved in the development of gene therapy and other technologies. Neurologix expects that such relationships, if established, will reduce the resources that Neurologix needs to provide to manufacture gene therapy products and conduct clinical trials involving these products, which may accelerate their commercialization. TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW DNA is organized into segments called genes with each gene representing the information necessary to make one particular protein. Occasionally, the DNA for one or more genes can be defective, resulting in the absence or improper production of a functioning protein in the cell. This improper expression can alter a cell's normal function and can frequently result in a disease. One goal of gene therapy is to treat these diseases by delivering DNA containing the corrected gene into cells. Also, gene therapy can increase or decrease the synthesis of gene products, or introduce new genes in a cell and thus provide new functions to that cell. There are several different ways of delivering genes to cells. Each of the methods of delivery uses carriers, called "vectors," to transport the genes into cells. Similar to the relationship between a delivery truck and its cargo, the vector (the "truck") provides a mode of transport and the therapeutic agent (the "cargo") provides the disease remedy. These carriers can be either man-made components or modified viruses. The use of viruses takes advantage of their natural ability to introduce DNA into cells. Gene therapy takes advantage of this property by replacing viral DNA with a specific gene. Once the vector inserts the gene into the cell, the gene acts as a blueprint directing the cell to make the therapeutic protein. For its first-generation of products, Neurologix intends to exclusively utilize the AAV vector. In 1994, Dr. Kaplitt and Dr. During demonstrated that AAV could be a safe and effective vehicle for gene therapy in the brain. Since that time, AAV has been used safely in a variety of clinical gene therapy trials, and to Neurologix's knowledge, the virus has never been associated with any human disease. Producing an AAV vector involves three steps. First, the AAV virus is modified by removing all of its viral genes and replacing them with a gene that produces the therapeutic protein. Second, a human cell line is constructed, which contains, among other things, the original AAV viral genes. Finally, the AAV viral gene is stripped of the helper virus (the virus needed to facilitate production of the additional stock of AAV) in order to eliminate contamination of the final product. Neurologix believes that the benefits of AAV vector gene therapy technology include: - Safety. AAV vectors are based on a virus that, to Neurologix's knowledge, has never been associated with a human disease. - Efficiency of Delivery. AAV vectors are effective at delivering genes to cells. Once in the cell, genes delivered by AAV vectors in animal models have produced large amounts of protein on a continuous basis, often for months or longer from a single administration. - Ability to Deliver Many Different Genes. The vast majority of genes fit into AAV vectors and have been successfully delivered to a wide range of cell types. - A Simpler and Safer Option than Surgery. Neurologix intends to administer the AAV vector-based products in a procedure that is simpler and safer than other common surgical procedures such as lesion removal. 100 - Stability. Unlike other viruses, AAV is stable under a wide range of conditions. This allows AAV vectors to be handled like normal pharmaceutical products, lending themselves to traditional shipping and storing procedures. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Neurologix's initial focus is to develop therapeutic products to meet the needs of two classes of patients: those suffering from Parkinson's disease and those suffering from epilepsy. PARKINSON'S DISEASE Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder; it arises from the gradual death of nerve cells. Parkinson's disease is a progressive and debilitating disease that affects the control of movement and is characterized by four principal symptoms: - rigidity of the limbs, - tremor of the limbs, - bradykinesia of the limbs and body evidenced by difficulty and slowness of movement, and - postural instability. Physicians and patients have long recognized that this disease, or treatment complications, can cause a wide spectrum of other symptoms, including dementia, abnormal speech, sleep disturbances, swallowing problems, sexual dysfunction, and depression. Rigidity, tremor, and bradykinesia result, primarily, from a loss of dopamine in two regions of the brain: the substantia nigra and striatum. Dopamine is a chemical, or neurotransmitter, which enhances or facilitates the flow of impulses from nerve cells (neurons) in the substantia nigra to nerve cells in the striatum. Standard therapy for Parkinson's disease often involves use of levodopa, a drug which stimulates production of dopamine. However, over extended periods of time levodopa often declines in its effectiveness. In advanced stages of Parkinson's disease, as the disease becomes more and more debilitating, it becomes necessary and advisable to accept a riskier and potentially more invasive medical procedure to treat the disease. It is at this juncture that surgical procedures (deep brain stimulators, lesion removal, etc.) are commonly advised. Neurologix believes that the glutamic acid decarboxylase, or GAD, gene can be used to selectively target gene expression and alter the neural circuitry affected in Parkinson's disease. Neurologix's technology inserts a GAD gene into the AAV based viral vector. The GAD gene is responsible for making gamma aminobutyric acid, which is released by nerve cells to inhibit or dampen activity. Neurologix's gene therapy is designed to reset the overactive brain cells to inhibit electrical activity and return brain network activity to more normal levels without destroying brain tissue and without implanting hardware. EPILEPSY Epilepsy, which involves recurring seizures, is caused by periodic episodes of repetitive, abnormal electrochemical disturbance in the central nervous system, beginning in the brain. Generalized seizures happen when massive bursts of electrical energy sweep through the whole brain at once, causing loss of consciousness, falls, convulsions or intense muscle spasms. Partial seizures happen when the disturbance occurs in only one part of the brain, affecting the physical or mental activity that area of the brain controls. Seizures may also begin as partial or focal seizures and then generalize. Neurologix believes that its technology can be applied to the treatment of epilepsy with advantages over the currently available treatments for epilepsy. Neurologix's proposed treatment includes the following: - Using gene-transfer technology to deliver genes which restore the chemical balance but only in the areas in which the disease process is occurring; and - Using vaccine technology to selectively target the epileptic regions of the brain, dampening excessive activity and preventing seizures and brain damage. 101 PATENTS AND OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS Neurologix believes that its success will depend on its ability to protect its proprietary technology. Neurologix is actively pursuing a policy of seeking patent protection for its proprietary products and technologies which Neurologix believes are patentable and where Neurologix believes its interests are best served by seeking patent protection. Neurologix has 2 issued U.S. patents, 6 pending U.S. patent applications and 6 pending foreign patent applications. Neurologix has acquired licenses to or assignments of 3 additional U.S. patents covering gene therapy technologies. Neurologix has entered into agreements with The Rockefeller University, Auckland UniServices, Ltd., Thomas Jefferson University and University Health Network to fund gene therapy research projects at these institutions. These agreements grant Neurologix a right of first refusal to obtain, upon commercially reasonable terms, exclusive license rights to any intellectual property developed in the course of the sponsored research projects. Neurologix relies on trade secrets, technical know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain its competitive position. Neurologix requires all of its employees and consultants to execute confidentiality and assignment of invention agreements. These agreements typically provide that (i) all materials and confidential information developed or made known to the individual during the course of the individual's relationship with Neurologix is to be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties except in specific circumstances and (ii) all inventions arising out of the relationship with Neurologix shall be Neurologix's exclusive property. These agreements may not provide meaningful protection for Neurologix's trade secrets in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of Neurologix's confidential information. COMPETITION Although Neurologix is not aware of any other company currently conducting clinical trials of gene therapy products in humans to treat Parkinson's disease or epilepsy, Neurologix faces intense competition from pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies, universities, governmental entities and other healthcare providers developing alternative treatments for these diseases. Alternative treatments include surgery, deep brain stimulator implants and pharmaceutical. Neurologix may face competition from companies and institutions involved in developing gene therapy and cell therapy treatments for other diseases, whose technologies may be adapted for the treatment of central nervous system disorders. Some companies, such as Avigen, Inc., Cell Genesys, Inc., and Targeted Genetics Corporation, have significant experience in developing and using AAV vectors to deliver gene therapy products. Many of Neurologix's competitors have significantly greater research and development capabilities than Neurologix, as well as substantial marketing, manufacturing, financial and managerial resources. Acquisitions of, or investments in, Neurologix's competitors by larger companies, as well as competitors' entry into collaborative relationships with large pharmaceutical companies and academic institutions, could increase Neurologix's competitors' financial, marketing, manufacturing and other resources. Developments by others may render Neurologix's products or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete. GOVERNMENT REGULATION The production and marketing of Neurologix's proposed products and research and development activities are subject to regulation for safety, efficacy and quality by numerous governmental authorities in the United States and potentially other foreign countries. In the United States, the FDA regulates, among other things, the testing, manufacturing, safety, efficacy, labeling, storage, record keeping, advertising and promotional practices and import and export of drugs and biological products. In addition, in the event that Neurologix seeks to commercialize a product embodying technology covered by a patent that was exclusively licensed to Neurologix by an educational or other non-profit institution in the United States, Neurologix may be required to manufacture such product substantially in the United States, if the technology resulted from federally funded research. 102 FACILITIES Neurologix leases approximately 2,000 square feet of laboratory space in New York, New York. This lease, which provides for an aggregate annual rental payment of $43,620 expires August 31, 2004. Neurologix's corporate offices are located at the following address: One Bridge Plaza, Fort Lee, New Jersey, 07024. Neurologix currently uses these premises on a month-to-month basis under a verbal agreement with Palisade that does not require the payment of any rent by Neurologix. EMPLOYEES At September 1, 2003, Neurologix had 3 full-time employees, including 2 research scientists with doctoral degrees. Neurologix's researchers have expertise in virology, protein chemistry and molecular biology. Neurologix uses consultants and temporary employees to complement its staffing. Neurologix's employees are not subject to any collective bargaining agreements, and it regards its relations with its employees to be good. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Neurologix is not a party to any material legal proceedings. 103 COMPARISON OF THE RIGHTS OF THE HOLDERS OF NEUROLOGIX COMMON STOCK OR SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND THE HOLDERS OF CHANGE COMMON STOCK Some significant differences exist between the rights of Neurologix stockholders and those of Change stockholders.

F-6 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA) (1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Arinco Computer Systems Inc., the predecessor of the Company and its subsidiaries, (the "Company"), was incorporated on March 31, 1978; however, the Company formally commenced implementation of its plan to provide professional consulting services on June 15, 2000. The Company provided a broad range of professional consulting services, including e-services and technology strategy, online branding, web architecture and design, systems integration, systems architecture and outsourcing. The Company has served clients throughout the United States and, as of September 30, 2003, has offices in Connecticut. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Board of Directors voted to divest the Company of a majority of its then existing operations. At September 30, 2003, the Company's sole consolidated subsidiary is: - Iguana Studios, Inc. (which has limited continuing operating activities) Based on the Company's assessment of the opportunities in the radio business, in 2001 the Board of Directors decided to merge with Franklin Capital Corporation and jointly develop and acquire network radio programming and sales and syndication businesses. On December 4, 2001 the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Franklin Capital. On July 1, 2002, the Company received a notice of termination from Franklin Capital terminating the proposed merger. On September 30, 2002, the Board of Directors announced the adoption of a plan of liquidation and dissolution in order to maximize stockholder value and noted that if no suitable business opportunities became available to it, subject to stockholder approval, it would commence liquidation in 2003. However, the plan permits the Board of Directors to amend, modify or abandon the plan, notwithstanding stockholder approval, if the Board determines doing so would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. On June 17, 2003, the individual filling the roles of President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company resigned. The former executive had an employment agreement dated September 17, 2001 governing the terms and conditions of his employment. On June 17, 2003, the Company and such former executive entered into a separation agreement and general release (the "Separation Agreement"). The Company recorded a charge in the Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 for the value of expected severance payments and benefits payable to the former executive totaling $140. In addition, the Company recorded a $90 stock compensation charge related to a modification of the former executive's options. This amount was paid in full in July, 2003. The Company announced on June 18, 2003 that it signed a Letter of Intent (the "Letter of Intent") with Neurologix, Inc. ("Neurologix") to merge a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("CTP/N Merger Corp.") with and into Neurologix, with Neurologix surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger"). On August 13, 2003, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), with Neurologix and CTP/N Merger Corp. The consummation of the Merger remains subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders, which the Company will be seeking at its next meeting of stockholders currently planned to take place in the fourth quarter of 2003. In the event the Merger is consummated, the Company expects to abandon the plan of liquidation and dissolution. If the Merger is not consummated, the Company expects to pursue the plan of liquidation and dissolution previously adopted. In connection with the Merger, the Company, CTP/N Merger Corp., Neurologix, and certain securityholders of Neurologix entered into a Voting Agreement dated as of August 13, 2003 (the "Voting F-7 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Agreement"). Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, all holders of Neurologix's initial series of convertible preferred stock, certain holders of Neurologix Series B convertible preferred stock and the holders of a promissory note issued by Neurologix agreed to convert such preferred stock and promissory note into Neurologix's common stock prior to the Merger. In addition, the securityholders agreed to vote all of their Neurologix capital stock in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Such securityholders hold a majority of Neurologix's outstanding shares of common stock, initial series of convertible preferred stock and Series B convertible preferred stock have approved the Merger. Concurrent with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company loaned Neurologix $750 (the "Neurologix Loan"). The Neurologix Loan is due April 30, 2004, accrues interest at a rate of 4% per annum and is secured by all of the assets of Neurologix. The note is senior to all existing indebtedness of Neurologix. The Neurologix Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, is presented in notes receivable in the accompanying Balance Sheet. In connection with an amendment to the Merger Agreement, on November 14, 2003, the Company agreed to loan Neurologix an additional $350 and to extend the due date of the loan to June 30, 2004. On December 18, 2003, Change funded the additional loan. On June 30, 2003, the Company sold to Textor Family Limited Partnership all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Papke-Textor, Inc. d/b/a Canned Interactive ("Canned"). Accordingly, the results of operations for Canned, including the loss on sale and goodwill impairment in 2003, are reported as discontinued operations. INTERIM RESULTS The accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2003, the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the unaudited consolidated statement of stockholders' equity as of September 30, 2003 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited financial statements and contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to interim periods. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, which are contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. As a result of the divestiture of Canned, the Company's last remaining revenue generating operation, the results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003 will not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or for any future periods. F-8 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Change Technology Partners, Inc. and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries from the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in less than majority-owned entities over which the Company has significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues are recognized for fixed price arrangements in the period services are rendered using the percentage-of-completion method, provided the Company has the ability to produce reasonably dependable estimates, collection of the resulting receivable is probable and no significant obligations remain. The cumulative impact of any revision in estimates of the cost to complete and losses on projects in process are reflected in the period in which they become known. Through September 30, 2002 the Company's revenues were recognized under the completed contract method of accounting as the Company did not have reasonably dependable estimates with respect to projects at its former subsidiary, Canned. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2002, Canned's revenues were recognized using the percentage of completion method. Canned's projects were typically short term in nature, generally spanning less than 90 days. Revenues are recognized for time-and-materials based arrangements in the period when the underlying services are rendered, provided collection of the resulting receivable is probable and no significant obligations remain. The Company enters into project specific contracts with its clients who are generally billed in the same period in which services are rendered. If services are rendered in advance of billings, the Company records and presents the related amounts as unbilled revenue. If amounts are received in advance of services being performed, the amounts are recorded and presented as deferred revenues. In connection with the divestiture of Canned by the Company, revenues are now presented in discontinued operations. COST OF REVENUES Cost of revenues consists primarily of compensation of billable employees, travel, subcontractor costs, and other costs directly incurred in the delivery of services to clients. Billable employees are full time employees and subcontractors whose time is spent servicing client projects. In connection with the divestiture of Canned by the Company, such costs are now presented in discontinued operations. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for its employee stock option plans in accordance with the provisions of the Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44. As such, compensation expense related to employee stock options is recorded only if, on the date of grant, the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. All such deferred compensation is amortized over the related vesting period on a straight-line basis. The Company adopted the disclosure-only requirements of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 for transactions with employees and provide pro forma net income F-9 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) (loss) and pro forma earnings (loss) per share disclosures for employee stock grants made as if the fair value based method of accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions. Had compensation cost for these awards been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below: THREE MONTHS ENDED NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, SEPTEMBER 30, ------------- ----------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 ----- ----- ------- ------- Net loss, as reported............................. $(795) $(791) $(4,401) $(3,063) Add back: compensation expense related to stock options, as reported............................ 88 131 358 394 Deduct: compensation expense related to stock options under fair value based method........... (98) (135) (394) (406) ----- ----- ------- ------- Pro forma net loss................................ $(805) $(795) $(4,437) $(3,075) ===== ===== ======= ======= Basic and diluted net loss per share as reported........................................ (0.00) (0.00) (0.02) (0.02) Pro forma basic income loss per share............. (0.00) (0.00) (0.02) (0.02) BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Basic net loss per common share excludes the effect of potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share adjusts for the effect of convertible securities, warrants and other potentially dilutive financial instruments only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive. The following securities were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would have had an antidilutive effect for the periods presented: SEPTEMBER 30, SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 2002 ------------------ ------------------ Stock Options....................................... 14,585,747 15,790,373 Warrants............................................ 25,856,252 25,856,252 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock................ 645 645 As a result, the basic and diluted net loss per share is equal for all periods presented. GOODWILL Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets." At January 1, 2002 the intangible assets consisted of goodwill and the subsumed workforce acquired in connection with the acquisition of the Company's former subsidiary, Canned. Management reviewed goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist. In connection with the sale of the Canned reporting unit in June 2003, goodwill totaling $1,782 was charged to loss on disposal of discontinued operations. F-10 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". SFAS No. 146, which is effective prospectively for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, applies to costs associated with an exit activity, including restructurings, 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. SFAS No. 146 requires that exit or disposal costs are recorded as an operating expense when the liability is incurred and can be measured at fair value. Commitment to an exit plan or a plan of disposal by itself will not meet the requirement for recognizing a liability and the related expense under SFAS No. 146. SFAS No. 146 grandfathers the accounting for liabilities that were previously recorded under EITF Issue 94-3. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 146 had no effect on the exit costs recorded by the Company prior to December 31, 2002. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 148"), is an amendment to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and provides alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes from the intrinsic value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation prescribed in APB No. 25 to the fair value method prescribed in SFAS 123. As permitted under SFAS 148, the Company has continued to apply the accounting provisions of APB No. 25, and to provide the annual pro forma disclosures of the effect of adopting the fair value method as required by SFAS 123. SFAS 148 also requires pro forma disclosure to be provided on a quarterly basis. The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently indicated that they will require stock-based employee compensation to be recorded as a charge to earnings beginning in 2004. The Company will continue to monitor their progress on the issuance of this standard, as well as evaluate the Company's position with respect to current guidance. (2) INVESTMENTS IN AND LOANS TO UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES The following summarizes the Company's ownership interests in unconsolidated subsidiaries accounted for under the equity method or cost method of accounting (in thousands): CARRYING VALUE ------------------------------------- SEPTEMBER 30, DECEMBER 31, COST 2003 2002 BASIS ------------- ------------ ------ Equity method investments: Broadstream.com Inc. ("Broadstream")............. $ -- $ -- $7,100 NetPro Holdings, Inc.

("Alacra").......................... 78 78 78 ----- ---- ------ Total investments.................................. $ 89 $449 $8,276 ===== ==== ====== INVESTMENTS IN BROADSTREAM AND NETPRO In June 2000, the Company purchased 7,626,165 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A") of Broadstream, Inc. (d/b/a Network Prophecy) ("Broadstream"), representing an F-11 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) approximately 30% equity interest (calculated on an as-if-converted basis) and approximately 47% voting interest, in exchange for $6,500. Broadstream is a streaming media management services company that provides software to measure, manage and monitor delivery of streaming media content and data. The investment in Broadstream is being accounted for under the equity method. Based upon the capital structure of, and the equity participation in, the equity investee, the Company has assumed conversion of Series A shares in computing its share of losses of this investee. In May 2001, Broadstream completed a recapitalization whereby all of the holders of Series A shares exchanged their Series A shares for shares of Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A-1"). The recapitalization modified the conversion ratio, policies regarding dividends and voting rights for Series A-1 holders. No additional consideration was paid by the Company or any other Series A-1 shareholder in connection with this transaction. As a result of the recapitalization the voting interest of common shareholders was reduced from 31% to 13%. Also in May 2001, in connection with the recapitalization, the Company transferred 1,191,569 Series A-1 shares to Adelson Investors, LLC ("Adelson"), another shareholder of Broadstream, as payment for certain financing-related services performed by Adelson on behalf of Broadstream. This transfer has been accounted for as a contribution by the Company of such shares to Broadstream in exchange for no consideration. Subsequent to the recapitalization and non-reciprocal share transfer, the Company owned 6,434,596 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock of Broadstream, representing an approximately 43% equity interest (calculated on an as-if-converted basis) and a 49% voting interest. On August 15, 2001 the Company purchased a secured convertible promissory note from Broadstream in exchange for $600 in connection with an aggregate $1,600 bridge loan financing consummated by Broadstream. The aggregate bridge loan financing was secured by all of Broadstream's assets. The note also contained certain conversion provisions in the event Broadstream were to close a new round of financing or enter into certain transactions. On November 30, 2001 the Company assigned its Broadstream promissory note to a newly formed entity, NetPro Holdings Inc. ("NetPro") in exchange for 13,674,753 shares of NetPro Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Participating Preferred Stock. On November 30, 2001 as a result of the application of the equity method, the net book value of the note approximated zero and no gain or loss was recorded as a result of this exchange. Concurrent with this transaction, NetPro foreclosed on the note and elected to take possession of all of Broadstream's assets in full satisfaction of the notes. On December 15, 2001, the Company purchased 1,585,479 shares of NetPro Series B-1 Convertible Redeemable Participating Preferred Stock in exchange for $200 in connection with a larger ongoing financing arrangement. As of December 31, 2001 the Company's interest in NetPro represented approximately 38% of NetPro outstanding equity, and was being accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company's proportionate share of NetPro's net losses totaled $167 from the date of investment through December 31, 2001. On January 10, 2002, the Company invested an additional $100 in NetPro Series B-1 stock, and on March 7, 2002 the Company invested a final $100 in NetPro Series B-1 stock. On March 14, 2002, the board of directors of NetPro voted to suspend all of NetPro's business operations and immediately terminate substantially all of its employees due to NetPro's loss of significant clients and associated revenues. The Company has no obligation to provide additional funding to NetPro. As a result of this action, the Company F-12 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) evaluated the recoverability of this investment by comparison of its carrying value relative to estimated future cash flows. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded an impairment charge to reduce the remaining investment balance to $0. The Company's proportionate share of net loss, and impairment charge, for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, totaling $0, is included in equity in losses and impairment of investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the accompanying statement of operations. INVESTMENT IN AND NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM EXCELSIOR RADIO NETWORKS The Company made two investments in 2001 and one in the first quarter of 2002 in Excelsior Radio Networks, Inc.

The Company purchased a promissory note and warrant for $2,250 from Excelsior in August 2001 and in December 2001 purchased 250,000 common shares of Excelsior from Franklin Capital for $250. In April 2002 the Company purchased an additional promissory note from Excelsior for $4,708 in conjunction with the purchase by Excelsior of Dial Communication Group Inc. and Dial Communications Group LLC. The $2,250 promissory note was paid in full, together with related accrued interest, on October 1, 2002. The $4,708 note was repaid in full, together with related accrued interest, on January 21, 2003.

INVESTMENT IN LIVESKY On December 21, 2000, the Company purchased 625,001 shares of Series A Convertible preferred stock, representing an approximate 2% equity interest of LiveSky Solutions, Inc. ("LiveSky") in exchange for $125. LiveSky is a developer of wireless technology, including mobile business strategy and assessment as well as mobile application design and development. This investment is being accounted for under the cost method of accounting. In June 2002, the Company received notice that the board of directors of LiveSky had voted to liquidate LiveSky in the context of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. The Company has no obligation to provide additional funding to LiveSky. As a result of this action, the Company evaluated the recoverability of this investment by comparison of its carrying value relative to future cash flows. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded an impairment charge totaling $125 in the second quarter of 2002 to reduce the remaining balance to $0. INVESTMENT IN ALACRA On January 31, 2002, the Company purchased 38,840 shares of common stock, representing less than 1% equity interest, of Alacra, Inc. ("Alacra") in exchange for $78.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) forgave approximately $400 of advances to InSys. The Company has no obligation to provide additional funding to InSys. Concurrently, the Company loaned InSys $100 evidenced by a promissory note. The note bears interest at a rate equal to the London Interbank offer rate plus 2%, until the principal amount of the note is paid in full. InSys is obligated to pay, on an annual basis, at a minimum, 50% of the excess of its annual earnings before taxes. The Company's retained equity interest and note receivable, net of the Company's pro rata share of InSys' net losses absorbed during the period from November 8, 2001 to December 31, 2001, totaled $312. The Company's pro rata share of InSys' net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 totaled $110 and $177, respectively, which is included in equity in losses and impairment of investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the accompanying statement of operations. On June 17, 2003, in connection with the resignation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, the Company entered into an agreement to transfer its interest in InSys to the former executive, contingent upon the approval of the other member of InSys. In the fourth quarter of 2003 the Company transferred its interest in InSys to the former executive and will record an additional severance expense equal to the remaining book value of this investment totaling $11. DIVESTITURE OF RAND INTERACTIVE CORPORATION On November 2, 2001 the Company sold all issued and outstanding shares of RAND Interactive Corporation ("RAND"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, to certain members of management in exchange for 375,039 shares of the Company's common stock, and a warrant to purchase such amount of shares of common stock that shall equal, at the time of exercise, 30% of the issued and outstanding shares of RAND common stock on a fully diluted basis. Such warrants have a stated exercise price of $1.00 in the aggregate, expire on November 3, 2013, and are contingently exercisable upon the occurrence of certain prospective events, as defined. ACQUISITION OF IGUANA STUDIOS, INC. In connection with the acquisition of Iguana Studios, Inc. ("Iguana"), in March 2001, 2,300,000 shares of the Company's common stock were placed in escrow. The related contingency period expired in July 2002, and the fair value of such shares was included in the aggregate purchase price at that time.

Accordingly, the Company recorded additional impairment charges in July 2002 totaling $69 representing the fair value of such shares. ACQUISITION AND DIVESTITURE OF PAPKE-TEXTOR, INC. In June 2001, the Company acquired Papke-Textor, Inc. d/b/a Canned Interactive ("Canned"), a Los Angeles-based media and entertainment interactive agency, for approximately $1,100 in cash, including acquisition costs, and 6,436,552 shares of the Company's common stock valued at approximately $1,000. The business combination was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the total consideration was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. The results of operations of Canned, and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Of the total purchase price, approximately $104 was allocated to the net tangible liabilities assumed, $2,177 was allocated to identified intangible assets, primarily F-14 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) assembled workforce, and to goodwill. The fair value of the identified intangible assets was determined using the replacement cost approach for the assembled workforce. On January 1, 2002, in connection with the Company's adoption of SFAS 142, the value ascribed to the acquired workforce was subsumed into goodwill, and amortization of these assets ceased. Also in connection with the acquisition of Canned, $200 in cash and 715,172 shares of the Company's common stock were placed in escrow. The related contingency period expired in December 2002, at which time the cash and the then fair value of the shares, totaling $214, was included in the aggregate purchase price. On June 30, 2003, the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of Canned to a limited partnership of which Canned's managing director is the general partner. Consideration paid to the Company consisted of 4,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock with a fair market value of $170. As a result of this divestiture, the Company recognized a loss of $274. Additionally, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,782, which is included in discontinued operations, to reduce the carrying amount of the Company's goodwill ascribed to its single reporting unit to zero. The results of operations for Canned, including the loss on sale and goodwill impairment in 2003, are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The accompanying consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2002 were restated to reflect such classification. Revenues included in discontinued operations were $0 and $511 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $1,547 and $1,844 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Additionally, Canned's assets and liabilities were classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, there was a remaining receivable balance of $300, which was subsequently repaid by Canned. (4) NOTES RECEIVABLE In April 2001, the Company loaned two consultants an aggregate of $500. The full recourse promissory notes, with initial principal amounts of $350 and $150, respectively, accrue interest at the rate of 7.25% per annum. Payments are due in various installments of principal plus accrued interest commencing on April 25, 2002 and continuing annually thereafter through April 25, 2006. During the second quarter of 2003, the Company received installment payments totaling $36. This amount was less than the $86 due in that period. No further payments have been received. As a result of the underpayment and management's assessment of the likelihood of future collection, the Company established a valuation allowance for the remaining principal amount of the notes totaling $473. See, also, discussion of the Neurologix Loan in note 1. (5) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In July 2001, the Board of Directors terminated the employment of the Company's then President and Chief Executive Officer.

The following are the future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable leases as of September 30, 2003: PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, OPERATING CAPITAL ------------------------- --------- ------- 2003........................................................ $28 $2 2004........................................................ -- 1 Thereafter.................................................. -- -- --- -- Total Lease Obligation...................................... $28 3 Amount Representing Interest................................ -- --- -- 3 Current Portion............................................. 3 --- -- Long Term Portion........................................... $0 === == Total minimum lease payments, above, have not been reduced for future minimum sublease rentals totaling approximately $13. As a result of the Company's divestiture of certain operations, employee terminations and terminated business combination, the Company evaluated its alternatives with respect to its contractual obligations concerning leased facilities. As of June 30, 2002, the Company determined that certain facilities had no substantive future use or benefit to the Company. The Company accrued the remaining costs relating to these leases, net of sublease income, in the second quarter of 2002. At September 30, 2003, $15 of this amount remained and is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying Balance Sheet. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operation or liquidity. (6) STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY In April, 2002 the Company cancelled 15,468,748 outstanding warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $0.85 in exchange for no consideration. In August, 2002 the Company's shareholders approved the grant to the former Chief Executive Officer of an option to purchase 6,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Under the Separation Agreement entered into in connection with such former Chief Executive Officer's resignation on June 17, 2003, such options, together with 3,000,000 previously granted, were immediately vested and may be exercised at any time on or before March 31, 2005. As a result of this modification to the terms of the options, the Company recorded a charge of $90. This amount is included in stock based compensation in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003. (7) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company incurred management and investment advisory service fees in connection with identifying, evaluating, negotiating, and managing investment opportunities for the Company. These services were provided by a firm with which the former President and F-16 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Chief Executive Officer of the Company was previously affiliated. Such former President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company resigned on June 17, 2003. Fees incurred by the Company to this firm totaled $75 in the three months ended March 31, 2002. Subsequent to that date, the Company has not utilized this firm to perform any services for the Company. Additionally, this firm occupies a portion of the Company's office space in Connecticut, for which it pays rent at an amount which approximates fair market value. Such payments to the Company totaled $220 and $134 during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Furthermore, the firm was indebted to the Company in the amount of $102 and $194 at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, for its pro rata share of certain leasehold improvements and rental payments due, which are reflected in the Related Party Receivable in the accompanying Balance Sheet. F-17 REPORT OF KPMG LLP, INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Change Technology Partners, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Change Technology Partners, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and redeemable preferred stock, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2002. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Change Technology Partners, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2002 the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted a plan of liquidation and dissolution that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's plans with regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from the outcome of this uncertainty. KPMG LLP New York, New York March 27, 2003, except for the reclassification and presentation of the discounted operations of Papke Textor, Inc., as discussed in Note 3, as to which the date is November 14, 2003.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2002 (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) (1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Arinco Computer Systems Inc., the predecessor of the Company together with its subsidiaries, (the "Company"), was incorporated on March 31, 1978; however, the Company formally commenced implementation of its plan to provide professional consulting services on June 15, 2000. The Company provided a broad range of professional consulting services, including e-services and technology strategy, online branding, web architecture and design, systems integration, systems architecture and outsourcing. The Company has served clients throughout the United States and, as of December 31, 2002, has offices in Connecticut and California. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Board of Directors voted to divest the Company of a majority of its then existing operations. At December 31, 2002, the Company's remaining consolidated subsidiaries are: - Iguana Studios, Inc. (which has limited continuing operating activities) - Papke-Textor, Inc. d/b/a Canned Interactive ("Canned") Based on the Company's assessment of the opportunities in the radio business, the Board of Directors decided to merge with Franklin Capital Corporation and jointly develop and acquire network radio programming and sales and syndication businesses. On December 4, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Franklin Capital. On July 1, 2002, the Company received a notice of termination from Franklin Capital terminating the proposed merger. On September 30, 2002, the Board of Directors adopted a plan of liquidation and dissolution. The plan remains subject to stockholder approval, which the Company intends to seek at its next annual meeting. The plan anticipates the continuation of the Company's business activities pending an orderly wind down of its operations, but permits the Board of Directors to amend, modify or abandon the plan, notwithstanding stockholder approval, if the Board determines that doing so would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Company continues to review other alternatives to liquidation. However, if no appropriate alternative can be found, the Company anticipates that it will commence liquidation in 2003. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability of assets or the amounts of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (A) 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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates embedded in the consolidated financial statements for the periods presented concern the allowances for doubtful accounts, the estimates used in the percentage of completion method, the fair value of purchased intangible assets, and the estimated useful lives of purchased intangible assets. (B) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries from the date of acquisition through the date of disposition, if applicable. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in less than F-23 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) majority-owned entities over which the Company has significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. Since the Company was the only contributor of capital to a majority-owned subsidiary, eHotHouse, Inc. ("eHotHouse"), and the minority interest holders had no obligation to provide additional capital, 100% of those losses were included in the Company's results for the period prior to the Company's acquisition of the outstanding minority interest in February, 2001. In May, 2001, eHotHouse merged with and into the Company. (C) REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues are recognized for fixed-price arrangements in the period services are rendered using the percentage-of-completion method, based on the percentage of costs incurred to date to total estimated projects costs, provided the Company has the ability to produce reasonably dependable estimates, collection of the resulting receivable is probable and no significant obligations remain. The cumulative impact of any revision in estimates of the cost to complete and losses on projects in process are reflected in the period in which they become known. Revenues are recognized for time-and-materials based arrangements in the period when the underlying services are rendered, provided collection of the resulting receivable is probable and no significant obligations remain. The Company generally enters into short-term, project specific contracts with its clients who are generally billed in the same period in which services are rendered. If services are rendered in advance of billings, the Company records and presents the related amounts as unbilled revenue. If amounts are received in advance of services being performed, the amounts are recorded and presented as deferred revenues. In November 2001, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") concluded that reimbursements for out-of-pocket-expenses incurred should be included in revenue in the income statement and subsequently issued EITF 01-14, "Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for 'Out-of-Pocket' Expenses Incurred" in January 2002. The Company adopted EITF 01-14 effective January 1, 2002 and has reclassified financial statements for prior periods to comply with the guidance in this EITF. Reimbursable expenses were de minimis for all periods presented. (D) COST OF REVENUES Cost of revenues consists primarily of compensation of billable employees, travel, subcontractor costs, and other costs directly incurred in the delivery of services to clients. Billable employees are full time employees and subcontractors who spent time servicing client projects. Also included in cost of revenues in the statement of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 is the amortization of certain purchased intangible assets, representing the value of customer relationships and workforces acquired. In connection with the adoption of SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002, acquired workforce was subsumed into goodwill and, accordingly, amortization of the remaining acquired workforce ceased. (E) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risks consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, and trade accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits, money market funds, and investments in short term "AAA" rated debt instruments. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations, generally does not require collateral, and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends, and other information. F-24 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) To date, such losses have been within management's expectations. Notes receivable are generally collateralized and bear a market rate of interest commensurate with the associated risks. Revenues from significant customers are as follows: TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, --------------------- 2002 2001 2000 ----- ----- ----- Customer A.................................................. 0% 0% 37% Customer B.................................................. 0% 0% 29% Customer C.................................................. 0% 0% 26% Customer D.................................................. 0% 0% 0% Customer E.................................................. 12% 15% 0% Customer F.................................................. 37% 47% 0% Customer G.................................................. 0% 0% 0% Customer H.................................................. 5% 0% 0% Customer I.................................................. 9% 0% 0% Accounts receivable from significant customers are as follows: DECEMBER 31, ------------------ 2002 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- Customer A.................................................. 0% 0% 13% Customer B.................................................. 0% 0% 19% Customer C.................................................. 0% 0% 15% Customer D.................................................. 0% 0% 10% Customer E.................................................. 29% 1% 0% Customer F.................................................. 12% 0% 0% Customer G.................................................. 27% 0% 0% Customer H.................................................. 13% 0% 0% Customer I.................................................. 11% 0% 0% (F) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than three months. (G) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Leasehold improvements are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the respective lease term. The Company provides for depreciation of other machinery and equipment over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method, as follows: ASSET CLASSIFICATION ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE -------------------- --------------------- Computers and equipment..................................... 3 - 5 years Furniture and fixtures...................................... 5 years Leasehold improvements...................................... 5 - 10 years (lease term) F-25 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) (H) PURCHASED INTANGIBLE ASSETS At December 31, 2001, purchased intangible assets, comprised primarily of the customer lists and the workforce acquired in connection with the acquisition of Canned, were being amortized over a period of 3 years, the estimated period of benefit considering the underlying contractual relationships, the project oriented continuing revenue stream, and analysis of the Company's retention efforts. Effective June 2001, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, "Business Combinations". Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets" and SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS 141 requires that acquisitions entered into after June 30, 2001 be accounted for using the purchase method and establishes criteria to be used in determining whether acquired intangible assets are to be separated from goodwill. At January 1, 2002 the intangible assets consisted of goodwill and the subsumed workforce acquired in connection with the acquisition of Canned. SFAS 142 sets forth the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets already recorded. Commencing January 1, 2002, goodwill is no longer being amortized into results of operations. Management conducted valuations of its reporting units in order to test goodwill for impairment by comparing the asset's fair value to the carrying value. This analysis did not indicate impairment as of January 1, 2002. The following table reflects the reconciliation of reported net loss and loss per share to amounts adjusted for the exclusion of goodwill amortization: TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, ---------------------------- 2002 2001 2000 ------- -------- ------- NET LOSS Reported loss.......................................... $(3,501) $(32,200) $(6,238) Add back: Goodwill amortization........................ ---- -- 677 $(6,238) Adjusted net loss...................................... $(3,501) $(31,523) ======= ======== ======= PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK Basic and Diluted: $ (.02) $ (0.23) $ (1.31) Reported loss........................................ Add back: Goodwill amortization...................... ---- ---- -- $ (0.23) $ (1.31) Adjusted net loss.................................... $ (.02) ======= ======== ======= (I) EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for its employee stock option plans in accordance with the provisions of the Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44. As such, compensation expense related to employee stock options is recorded only if, on the date of grant, the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. All such deferred compensation is amortized over the related vesting period on a straight-line basis. The Company adopted the disclosure-only requirements of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", which allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 for transactions with employees and provide pro forma net income (loss) and pro forma earnings (loss) per share disclosures for employee stock grants made as if the fair value based method of accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions. F-26 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Had compensation cost for these awards been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------- 2002 2001 2000 ------- -------- -------- Net loss, as reported................................. $(3,501) $(32,200) $(46,238) Add back: compensation expense related to stock options, as reported................................ 377 621 693 Deduct: compensation expense related to stock options under fair value based method.......................

(J) BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Basic net loss per common share excludes the effect of potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income or loss per share is adjusted for the effect of convertible securities, warrants and other potentially dilutive financial instruments only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive. The following securities were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would have had an antidilutive effect for the periods presented: AT DECEMBER 31, ------------------------------------ 2002 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- ---------- Stock Options.................................... 14,585,747 16,133,768 4,600,000 Warrants......................................... 25,856,252 41,250,000 41,250,000 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock............. 645 645 3,221 Series B Convertible Preferred Stock............. -- -- 3,000,000 As a result, the basic and diluted net loss per share is equal for all periods presented. F-27 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) (K) INCOME TAXES The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases and to operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets or liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that the rate change occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets for which, based on available evidence, realization is not assured. (L) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The Company accounts for comprehensive income (loss) under SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement established standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. For all periods presented, comprehensive income (loss) equals net income (loss) as reported. (M) SEGMENT REPORTING Although the Company has divested itself of certain of its operations, and is evaluating other business opportunities, it has historically offered, largely through its acquired businesses, a wide variety of professional consulting services such as e-services, technology services and systems integration. Management does not manage its operations by these product offerings, but instead views the Company as one operating segment when making business decisions, with one operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer. The Company manages its operations as a cross-disciplinary integrated solutions provider, which attempts to bring forth a coordinated service offering to its clients. (N) NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"), establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 144. Adoption of SFAS 144 has not resulted in an impairment charge. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS 146"), requires that costs associated with exit or disposal activities be measured initially at fair value, and recognized only when the liability is incurred. SFAS 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 146 effective January 1, 2003. The impact of SFAS 146 on the Company's financial statements will depend on a variety of factors, including interpretive guidance from the FASB. However, the Company does not expect that the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial position. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 148"), is an amendment to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and provides alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes from the intrinsic value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation prescribed in APB No. 25 to the fair value method prescribed in SFAS 123. As permitted under SFAS 148, the Company has continued to apply the accounting provisions of APB No 25, and to provide the annual pro forma disclosures of the effect of adopting the fair value method as required by SFAS 123. SFAS 148 also F-28 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) requires pro forma disclosure to be provided on a quarterly basis. The Company plans to adopt the quarterly disclosure requirement during the first quarter of 2003. (3) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On June 30, 2003, the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of its Canned Interactive subsidiary to a limited partnership of which Canned's managing director is the general partner. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Canned have been segregated and presented separately in the accompanying balance sheet for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. Additionally, the operations and cash flows of Canned for the years ending December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 have been reclassed into a one-line presentation and are included in Loss from Discontinued Operations and Net Cash Used by Discontinued Operations. Revenues included in discontinued operations were $2,678, $971, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Net income (loss) of Canned included in discontinued operations was $93, $(466), and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. (4) SEVERANCE AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES In 2001, in response to continued unfavorable market conditions for its services, the Company embarked on a review of all operations with the goal of formulating a course of action to minimize near-term losses and capital expenditures and reduce cash outflows. As an initial course of action, primarily during July and August 2001, the Company terminated the employment of approximately 90% of its then existing workforce. As a result, the Company incurred severance charges of $1,326, which are included in severance charges in the accompanying Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2001. Of this amount, $1,145 of the severance obligations have been paid as of December 31, 2002. (5) INVESTMENTS IN AND LOANS TO UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES The following summarizes the Company's ownership interests in, and loans to, unconsolidated subsidiaries accounted for under the equity method, and investments accounted for under the cost method of accounting: CARRYING VALUE DECEMBER 31, --------------- 2002 2001 COST BASIS ------ ------ ---------- Equity method investments: Broadstream.com Inc. ("Broadstream")........................ $ -- $ -- $7,100 NetPro Holdings, Inc.

("Excelsior")................ 250 250 250 ---- ---- ------ Total investments:.......................................... $449 $720 $8,276 ==== ==== ====== INVESTMENTS IN BROADSTREAM AND NETPRO In June 2000, the Company purchased 7,626,165 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A") of Broadstream, Inc. (d/b/a Network Prophecy) ("Broadstream"), representing an F-29 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) approximately 30% equity interest (calculated on an as-if-converted basis) and approximately 47% voting interest, in exchange for $6,500. Broadstream is a streaming media management services company that provides software to measure, manage and monitor delivery of streaming media content and data. The investment in Broadstream is being accounted for under the equity method. Based upon the capital structure of, and the equity participation in, the equity investee, the Company has assumed conversion of Series A shares in computing its share of losses of this investee. The Company's proportionate share of Broadstream's net loss was $3,177 and $1,097 in 2001 and 2000, respectively, and the amortization of the excess of cost over the Company's proportionate interest in the underlying equity was $1,175 and $635 for 2001 and 2000, respectively. These amounts are included in equity in losses of affiliate in the accompanying Statement of Operations. In May 2001, Broadstream completed a recapitalization whereby all of the holders of Series A shares exchanged their Series A shares for shares of Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A-1"). The recapitalization modified the conversion ratio, policies regarding dividends and voting rights for Series A-1 holders. No additional consideration was paid by the Company or any other Series A-1 shareholder in connection with this transaction. As a result of the recapitalization the voting interest of common shareholders was reduced from 31% to 13%. Also in May 2001, in connection with the recapitalization, the Company transferred 1,191,569 Series A-1 shares to Adelson Investors, LLC ("Adelson"), another shareholder of Broadstream, as payment for certain financing-related services performed by Adelson on behalf of Broadstream. This transfer has been accounted for as a contribution by the Company of such shares to Broadstream in exchange for no consideration. As a result of this non-reciprocal transfer of shares the Company recorded a charge of $1,016 equal to the Company's cost basis in such shares, which approximated fair value, and has been included in equity in losses of affiliate in the accompanying Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2001. Subsequent to the recapitalization and non-reciprocal share transfer, the Company owned 6,434,596 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock of Broadstream, representing an approximately 43% equity interest (calculated on an as-if-converted basis) and a 49% voting interest. On August 15, 2001 the Company purchased a secured convertible promissory note from Broadstream in exchange for $600 in connection with an aggregate $1,600 bridge loan financing consummated by Broadstream. The aggregate bridge loan financing was secured by all of Broadstream's assets. The note also contained certain conversion provisions in the event Broadstream were to close a new round of financing or enter into certain transactions. On November 30, 2001 the Company assigned its Broadstream promissory note to a newly formed entity, NetPro Holdings Inc. ("NetPro") in exchange for 13,674,753 shares of NetPro Series A-1 Convertible Redeemable Participating Preferred Stock. On November 30, 2001 as a result of the application of the equity method, the net book value of the note approximated zero and no gain or loss was recorded as a result of this exchange. Concurrent with this transaction, NetPro foreclosed on the note and elected to take possession of all of Broadstream's assets in full satisfaction of the notes. On December 15, 2001, the Company purchased 1,585,479 shares of NetPro Series B-1 Convertible Redeemable Participating Preferred Stock in exchange for $200 in connection with a larger ongoing financing arrangement. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's interest in NetPro represented approximately 38% of NetPro outstanding equity, and was being accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company's proportionate share of NetPro's net losses totaling $167 from the date of investment through December 31, 2001, is included in equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiaries in the accompanying Statement of Operations. F-30 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC.

The results of operations of InSys and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The fair value of the intangible assets was determined based upon a combination of methods, including the income approach for the customer list, and the replacement cost approach for the value of the assembled workforce.

The business combination was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the total consideration was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. The results of operations of Canned, and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Of the total purchase price, approximately $104 was allocated to the net tangible liabilities assumed, $2,177 was allocated to identified intangible assets, primarily assembled workforce, and to goodwill. The fair value of the identified intangible assets was determined using the replacement cost approach for the assembled workforce. The purchased intangible assets and goodwill were being amortized over their estimated useful lives of three years. On January 1, 2002, in connection with the Company's adoption of SFAS 142, the value ascribed to the acquired workforce was subsumed into goodwill, and amortization of these assets ceased. The remaining unamortized amount, totaling $1,568 at December 31, 2002 is included in goodwill in the accompanying balance sheet. F-36 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The Canned acquisition is summarized as follows: Fair value of tangible assets acquired...................... $ 329 Fair value of identified intangible assets acquired......... 2,177 Liabilities assumed.........................................

The related contingency period expired in December 2002, at which time the cash and the then fair value of the shares, totaling $214, was included in the aggregate purchase price. (7) NOTE RECEIVABLE In April 2001, the Company loaned two consultants an aggregate of $500. The full recourse promissory notes, with initial principal amounts of $350 and $150, respectively, accrue interest at the rate of 7.25% per annum. Payments are due in various installments of principal plus accrued interest commencing on April 25, 2002 and continuing annually thereafter through April 25, 2006. In April 2002, the Company received the first such installment, totaling $61. (8) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES OPERATING LEASES The Company leases its facilities and equipment under operating and capital lease agreements. The following are the future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2002: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, OPERATING CAPITAL ----------------------- --------- ------- 2003........................................................ $ 850 $ 114 2004........................................................ 184 31 2005........................................................ 46 4 2006........................................................ -- -- 2007........................................................ -- -- ------ ----- $1,080 $ 149 ------ ----- Total lease obligation Amount representing interest................................

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Total minimum lease payments have not been reduced for future minimum sublease rentals totaling approximately $342. As a result of the company's divestiture of certain operations, employee terminations and terminated business combination, the Company has evaluated its alternatives with respects to its contractual obligations concerning leased facilities. As of June 30, 2002, the Company determined that certain facilities have no substantive future use of benefit to the Company. The Company accrued the remaining costs, net of sublease income, relating to these leases in the second quarter. At December 31, 2002, $738 of this amount remained. Rent expense was approximately $1,183 and $963 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operation or liquidity. (9) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY On March 28, 2000, Arinco Computer Systems Inc. (the predecessor to the Company, see September 12, 2000 transaction below) was acquired by an investor group led by Pangea Internet Advisors, LLC. Prior to this transaction, neither Arinco Computer Systems Inc., a public shell, or Pangea Internet Advisors, LLC were active or had substantive business operations. Investors purchased 4,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Stock") for net proceeds to the Company of $39,450. Each share of Series B stock is convertible into 40 common shares, and the Series B Stock, collectively, represents approximately 97% of the voting interest of the Company. If by December 31, 2000 the Company's authorized common stock had not been increased to provide for the conversion of all Series B Stock, holders of 50% of the Series B stock could require the Company to redeem all such Series B Stock at $10 per share on demand. Accordingly, Series B Stock was classified as temporary equity until shareholder approval was obtained to sufficiently increase the number of authorized common shares. However, as the Series B shareholders effectively controlled the Company, shareholder approval was perfunctory and, accordingly, the full deemed dividend was recognized immediately. Also on March 28, 2000, certain other investors purchased warrants ("warrants") to purchase 41,250,000 shares of common stock for $100. Of these warrants, 20% have an exercise price of $.25 per share, 30% have an exercise price of $.50 per share, 30% have an exercise price of $.75 per share and 20% have an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable at the election of the holder for a period of five years. In April, 2002 the Company cancelled 15,468,748 of these outstanding warrants to purchase common stock, with a weighted average exercise price of $0.85, in exchange for no consideration. The difference between the price of the Series B Stock on an as converted basis of $0.25 and $4.88 (the fair value of common stock on the date of issuance of the Series B Stock), or $4.63, multiplied by the number of shares of Series B Stock on an as if converted basis, represents the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature, which totaled approximately $741,000. However, as the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is greater than the $40,000 in gross proceeds received from the Series B Stock issuance, the amount of the discount attributed to the beneficial conversion feature is limited to the $40,000 of gross proceeds received. The beneficial conversion feature was recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2000 as a non-cash preferred stock dividend because the Series B Stock is effectively convertible at the option of the preferred stockholders. The $40,000 non-cash dividend increased the Company's net loss attributable to common stockholders by the same amount. F-38 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) On March 28, 2000, 1,000,000 shares of Series B Stock were converted into 40,000,000 shares of common stock. On September 12, 2000, Arinco Computer Systems Inc. merged with and into the Company (d/b/a Pangea Internet, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary. All shareholders of Arinco Computer Systems Inc. became stockholders of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Arinco Computer Systems Inc. common stock, Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock and warrants was converted into one share of common stock, Series A preferred stock, and Series B preferred stock and warrants, respectively, of the Company. As a result of the merger, the total number of shares of stock which the Company has authority to issue was increased to 505,000,000 shares, of which 500,000,000 are common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 5,000,000 are preferred stock, par value $0.10 per share. This transaction was accounted for as a transaction between companies under common control and therefore there was no adjustment to the historical basis of the assets and liabilities of Arinco Computer Systems Inc. Additionally, as a result of this transaction and the resulting increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock, the redemption feature on the Series B preferred shares was nullified and, accordingly, the Series B Preferred Stock was reclassified to stockholders equity. In 2002, the Company purchased an aggregate of 33,588 shares of the Company's common stock from certain stockholders in exchange for an amount which approximated fair value. The Company's Series A and Series B Preferred stock are convertible to common stock on a 1 for 1 and 40 for 1 basis respectively, and have voting rights on an as if converted basis. Series A Preferred stock accumulates $0.06 per share cumulative dividends annually, payable each May 31st at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Series A Preferred stockholders are not entitled to payment of any accrued but unpaid dividends existing at the time of a voluntary conversion of such stock to common stock. (10) EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION Under the terms of the Company's incentive stock option plans, employees, directors, and consultants may be granted options to purchase the Company's common stock at no less than 100% of the market price on the date the option is granted (110% of fair market value for incentive stock options granted to holders of more than 10% of the voting stock of the Company). Options generally vest over three or four years and have a maximum term of 10 years. F-39 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC.

The Company recorded deferred compensation of approximately $2,480 in connection with the grant of these options. This amount is presented as deferred compensation within the accompanying balance sheet and is being amortized over the related vesting period, of either three or four years. In 2001, in connection with the termination of the former Chief Executive Officer, and in 2002, in connection with the voluntary departure of a member of the board of directors, the Company reversed certain of this unamortized deferred compensation related to unvested options forfeited as a result of the departures. The Company amortized $377, $615 and $693 of deferred compensation during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The F-40 CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Company will amortize the remaining deferred compensation of $268 over the remaining vesting period of 21 months. In September 2001, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, granted to the newly appointed Chief Executive Officer options to purchase 9,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.03 per share, the then fair value of the underlying common stock. Of this grant, options to purchase 6,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock were subject to shareholder approval, which was obtained in August 2002 when the fair value of the underlying stock was $0.02 per share. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors granted to certain members of the Board of Directors options to purchase an aggregate of 3,000,000 and 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.03 and $0.50 per share, respectively, the then fair value of the underlying common stock. On November 7, 2001, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors granted to a new member of the Board of Directors options to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 per share, the then fair value of the underlying common stock. However, in connection with such new member of the Board of Directors' resignation on December 31, 2002, he surrendered options to purchase 1,300,000 shares of the Company's common stock. He retained options to purchase the remaining 700,000 shares of the Company's common stock. (11) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company incurred legal fees in connection with certain transactions and other matters in the normal course of business. A portion of these services was provided by a firm of which a member of the Board of Directors of the Company is a partner. Fees incurred by this firm totaled approximately $387 and $881 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company incurred management and investment advisory service fees in connection with identifying, evaluating, negotiating, and managing investment opportunities for the Company.

Such payments to the Company totaled $230 and $283 during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Furthermore, the firm was indebted to the Company in the amount of $194 at December 31, 2002, for its pro rata share of certain leasehold improvements and rental payments due, which are reflected in the Related Party Receivable in the accompanying Balance Sheet.

F-48 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION: In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2003, its results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) through September 30, 2003, and their changes in stockholders' equity (deficiency) for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) through September 30, 2003. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements unless significant changes have taken place since the end of the most recent fiscal year. Accordingly, these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes to financial statements and the other information in the audited financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2002 and for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) through December 31, 2002 (the "Audited Financial Statements") also included in the Prospectus of this Registration Statement. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is in the development stage and has not generated any revenue as of September 30, 2003. As a result, the Company incurred cumulative net losses of approximately $5,135,000 and cumulative negative cash flows from operating activities of $4,407,000 during the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) through September 30, 2003. In addition, management believes that the Company will continue to incur net losses and cash flow deficiencies through at least September 30, 2004. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's existing resources will not be sufficient to support the commercial introduction of any of its product candidates. The Company will need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or additional corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. The Company does not know whether additional financing will be available when needed, or on terms favorable to it or its stockholders. To enable the Company to sustain its operations through at least September 30, 2004, and, ultimately complete its marketing and development program and achieve profitability, management plans to seek additional financing for the Company through the sale of debt and equity securities. As discussed in Notes 2 and 8 to the Audited Financial Statements, on August 13, 2003 the Company entered into the merger agreement with Change. As of September 30, 2003, Change's assets consisted primarily of approximately $6,000,000 in cash and cash equivalents. Management believes the merger with Change will enable the Company to conduct the Phase I clinical trial of gene therapy that it has developed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and to continue the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of other degenerative neurological disorders. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its operations as a going concern. NOTE 2 -- CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS: During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company acquired equipment with a capitalized cost of $41,130 pursuant to a capital lease obligation. The acquisition of such equipment was a noncash F-49 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) transaction and, accordingly, is not reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) to September 30, 2003. Future minimum lease payments under capital leases in each of the years subsequent to September 30, 2003 are as follows: YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, AMOUNT ------------------------- ------- 2004........................................................ $22,245 2005........................................................ 11,066 ------- Total minimum lease payments................................ 33,311 Less amount representing interest........................... 1,945 ------- Present value of net minimum lease payments................. 31,366 Less current portion........................................ 20,535 ------- Long-term portion........................................... $10,831 ======= NOTE 3 -- CONSULTING AGREEMENT: In May 2003, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement to sell 100,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $.10 per share to an individual. At the time of such agreement, the fair value per share of common stock based on a prior transaction was deemed to be $4.32 per share. The reduced purchase price was provided to the individual as an enticement for the individual to serve as the Chairman of the Company's Advisory Board. Accordingly, the fair value of the shares of approximately $431,000, based on the difference between the purchase price of $.10 per share and the fair value per share of $4.32, will be recognized as an advisory board fee over the vesting period of the shares of three years. In addition, on July 1, 2003, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with the individual to serve as the Chairman of its Advisory Board for a three year term. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the individual is to receive compensation of $25,000 annually, payable in quarterly installments. NOTE 4 -- MERGER AGREEMENT On August 13, 2003, the Company entered into the merger agreement with Change. Under the merger agreement, Subcorp will merge with and into Neurologix, with Neurologix being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change. Under the merger agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of Neurologix common stock and preferred stock will automatically convert into Change common stock. The actual number of shares of Change common stock to be issued in the Merger is directly related to Change's Net Cash Assets as of the closing of the Merger. As of July 31, 2003, Change estimated that its Net Cash Assets at closing would be approximately $7,139,995. Accordingly, had the Exchange Ratio been determined as of July 31, 2003, it would have been 70.2127 resulting in an aggregate of 391,275,156 shares of Change common stock being issued to existing Neurologix stockholders and approximately 32% and 68% of the common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger being held by existing Change stockholders and existing Neurologix stockholders, respectively. In addition, Neurologix has outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 257,000 shares of its common stock, which, in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, would automatically convert into options to purchase an aggregate of 18,044,664 shares of Change common stock based on an estimated Exchange Ratio of 70.2127. Since the stockholders of Neurologix will receive the majority of the voting shares of the combined company, and the board of directors and management of the combined company will be controlled by members of the board of F-50 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) directors and management of Neurologix, the Merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Neurologix will be the acquirer and Change will be the acquiree for accounting purposes. The voting agreement, dated as of August 13, 2003, by and among Change, Neurologix, Subcorp and certain stockholders of Neurologix, further provides for all of the outstanding shares of the initial series of convertible preferred stock of the Company and approximately 79.2% of the outstanding shares of Series B convertible preferred stock of the Company to be converted into shares of common stock of the Company prior to the Merger and for the note payable with the related party to be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at the conversion price of $6 per share. Concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Change loaned the Company $750,000 and the Company issued a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000 due April 30, 2004 in favor of Change. On November 14, 2003, the merger agreement was amended to increase the amount of the loan to $1,100,000 and to extend the term of the loan to June 30, 2004. Change funded the additional $350,000 amount of the loan on December 18, 2003. The note accrues interest at 4% per annum, is secured by all of the assets of the Company and is senior to all existing indebtedness of the Company. * * * F-51 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors Neurologix, Inc. We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A Development Stage Company) (the "Company") as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficiency and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) through December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. These 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Neurologix, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and its results of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As further discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company's operations have generated recurring losses and it had a stockholders' deficiency as of December 31, 2002. Such matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ J.H.

F-56 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF OPERATIONS: Neurologix, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Delaware in February 1999. The Company owns or licenses and is developing technologies to deliver gene therapy as a treatment for central nervous system disorders. DEVELOPMENT STAGE: The Company is in the development stage as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises." Through December 31, 2002, the Company has not generated revenues and has devoted its efforts to various start-up activities including technology development and raising capital. The Company anticipates requiring additional capital to complete its development stage activities. 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 certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The Company considers money market accounts and all highly-liquid debt instruments with maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. EQUIPMENT: Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company records depreciation using the declining balance method over the estimated useful life of five years. INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Intangible assets consist of patents and patent rights obtained under licensing agreements and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives which range from five to 15 years. The Company estimates amortization expenses related to these intangible assets to be approximately $15,000 per year for the next five years. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS: The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including intangible assets. A loss is recognized when expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. The impairment loss is the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. INCOME TAXES: The Company complies with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates F-57 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION: The Company follows SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" which allows companies to either expense the estimated fair value of stock options or to continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), and disclose the pro forma effect on net income (loss) as if the fair value of the options had been expensed. The Company has elected to apply APB 25 in accounting for its employee stock option incentive plans and make the required pro forma disclosures. The Company has used the minimum value method as permitted by SFAS 123 to estimate the fair value of options granted to employees for such pro forma disclosures. In accordance with SFAS 123, all other issuances of common stock, stock options or other equity instruments issued to employees and non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more readily measurable. Such fair value is measured at an appropriate date pursuant to the guidance in the consensus reached for EITF Issue No. 96-18 (generally, the earlier of the date the other party becomes committed to provide goods or services or the date the performance by the other party is complete) and capitalized or expensed. NOTE 2 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is in the development stage and has not generated any revenues as of December 31, 2002. As a result, the Company incurred net losses of $1,310,000, $870,000, $1,055,000 and $3,563,000 and negative cash flows from operating activities of $1,119,000, $729,000, $1,023,000 and $3,133,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2002, respectively. As a result, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $3,563,000 as of December 31, 2002. In addition, management believes that the Company will continue to incur net losses and cash flow deficiencies from operating activities through at least December 31, 2003. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. To enable the Company to sustain its operations through at least December 31, 2003 and, ultimately complete its marketing and development program and achieve profitability, management plans to seek additional financing for the Company through the sale of debt and equity securities. On August 13, 2003, the Company entered into a merger agreement (the "merger agreement") with Change Technology Partners, Inc. ("Change"), a publicly-traded company, that is expected to be accounted for as a "reverse acquisition." As of June 30, 2003, Change's assets consisted primarily of approximately $7,300,000 (unaudited) in cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that the merger with Change will enable the Company to conduct the Phase I clinical trial of gene therapy that it has developed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and to continue the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of other degenerative neurological disorders (see Note 8). Concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Change loaned the Company $750,000 and the Company issued a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000 due April 30, 2004 in favor of Change. On November 14, 2003, the merger agreement was amended to increase the amount of the loan to $1,100,000 and to extend the term of the loan to June 30, 2004. Change funded the additional $350,000 F-58 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) amount of the loan on December 18, 2003. The note accrues interest at 4% per annum, is collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and is senior to all existing indebtedness of the Company (see Note 8). The Company's existing resources will not be sufficient to support the commercial introduction of any of its product candidates. The Company will need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or additional corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. The Company does not know whether additional financing will be available when needed, or on terms favorable to it or its stockholders. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its operations as a going concern. NOTE 3 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS: At December 31, 2002, the Company has a note payable to several of its preferred stockholders pursuant to a $2,000,000 credit line agreement that expires in October 2007 and is collateralized by certain intellectual property of the Company. Interest expense of approximately $118,000, $96,000, $24,000 and $238,000 was accrued at 6% for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2002, respectively, but was not paid. Concurrent with the merger (see Note 8), the outstanding balance, including accrued interest, will be converted into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $6 per share. The Company paid its CEO/President a management fee of $24,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and $72,000 for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2002. The Company's CEO/President is also a stockholder and a noteholder of the Company. NOTE 4 -- INCOME TAXES: At December 31, 2002, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") of approximately $3,500,000, which expire through 2022. The deferred tax asset from the Company's NOLs approximated $1,400,000. The Company has a deferred tax asset from research and development credits of approximately $218,000, which expires through 2022. Due to the uncertainties related to the Company's ability to utilize its deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance for the full amount of the deferred tax assets of $1,487,000 has been established at December 31, 2002. There are no other significant permanent or temporary differences. The Company had also offset the potential benefits of $880,000, $520,000 and $100,000 from NOLs by equivalent valuation allowances as of December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. As a result of the increases in the valuation allowance of $520,000, $360,000, $420,000 and $1,487,000 during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and for the period from February 12, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2002, respectively, there are no income tax benefits reflected in the accompanying statements of operations to offset pre-tax losses. NOTE 5 -- PREFERRED STOCK: The Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, authorized 1,000,000 shares of $.001 par preferred stock that may be designated in different series at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2002, the Board of Directors has designated 147 of such shares as Convertible Preferred Stock ("Convertible Preferred Stock") and 562,500 of such shares as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"). F-59 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Pursuant to the terms of a private placement during 1999, the Company sold all of the 147 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock for aggregate consideration of $500,000 or $3,401 per share. Each share of Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of 10% of the liquidation preference per year; however, such dividend may not be paid unless corresponding dividends are paid to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. In addition, each share of Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock at the option of the holder. In the event that shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock are not converted into common stock on or prior to October 15, 2004, the holder of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to have the Company redeem the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock and to receive $3,401 per share (as adjusted for any share dividends, combinations or subdivision with respect to such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock) plus all accrued and unpaid dividends for each share of Convertible Preferred Stock redeemed by the Company. In addition, this class of stock is preferential to the common stock of the Company for distributions in liquidation and dissolution. The aggregate liquidation preference is $500,000. Holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to all voting rights of the common stockholders. In 2002, the Company executed preferred stock subscription agreements with certain investors pursuant to which the Company sold 490,754 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and received gross proceeds of $2,650,000 or $5.40 per share. In connection with this private placement, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $37,000. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of common stock, subject to certain antidilution provisions. The Series B Preferred Stock carries a liquidation preference which entitles the holder to receive an amount equal to the equity investment prior to distributions to the holders of the Company's common stock and Convertible Preferred Stock. The aggregate Series B Preferred Stock liquidation preference is approximately $2,650,000 or $5.40 per share. In addition, the Series B Preferred Stock does not have a cumulative dividend. Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to all voting rights of the common stockholders. NOTE 6 -- STOCK OPTIONS: During 2001, the Company approved a stock option plan (the "Plan") which provided for the granting of stock options and restricted stock to employees, independent contractors, consultants, directors and other individuals. A maximum of 1,400,000 shares of common stock have been approved for issuance under the Plan by the Company's Board of Directors. A summary of the status of the Company's shares subject to options as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and changes during the years then ended is presented below: 2002 2001 -------------------- -------------------- WEIGHTED WEIGHTED AVERAGE AVERAGE SHARES OR EXERCISE SHARES OR EXERCISE PRICE PRICE PRICE PRICE --------- -------- --------- -------- Outstanding, beginning of year............... 232,000 $ .24 Granted...................................... 25,000 4.32 232,000 $.24 -------- -------- Outstanding, end of year..................... 257,000 $ .64 232,000 $.24 -------- ===== -------- Options exercisable, end of year............. 208,167 167,500 -------- -------- Weighted average fair value of options granted during the year.................... $ .96 $ .04 ======== ======== F-60 NEUROLOGIX, INC.

The historical amounts reported in the accompanying statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the pro forma amounts computed as if the Company had elected to recognize costs for stock options granted to employees based on the fair value of the options at the date of grant using the minimum value method as prescribed by SFAS 123 are set forth below: 2002 2001 2000 ---------- -------- ---------- Net loss, as reported............................. $1,309,631 $870,626 $1,054,579 Deduct total stock-based compensation determined under fair value -- based method for all awards.......................................... 23,890 ---------- -------- ---------- Net loss, pro forma............................... $1,333,521 $870,626 $1,054,579 ========== ======== ========== For purposes of determining the pro forma and historical fair values of options granted to employees and non-employees during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 using the minimum value method, Neurologix uses the following assumptions: (i) risk free interest rate of 4%; (ii) estimated life of five years, (iii) volatility of 0%, and (iv) dividend yield of 0%. NOTE 7 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: LICENSE AGREEMENTS: In September 1999 and April 2001, the Company entered into two license agreements whereby a university grants to the Company the sole and exclusive right and license, under the ownership rights of the university, to certain patent rights and technical information. In conjunction with the agreements, the Company shall pay the university an annual maintenance fee of $25,000 per agreement as well as benchmark payments and royalties as defined. The licenses shall continue for the lives of the patents covered in the agreements. The Company shall have the right to terminate the agreements at any time upon 90 days written notice to the university. In December 2001, the Company entered into a license agreement with another university whereby the university granted to the Company the sole and exclusive right and license to certain patent rights and technical information for a period of three years.

In November 2002, the license agreements were modified under a new license agreement. In connection with the new agreement, the Company issued 133,583 shares of common stock to the university in exchange for cancellation of annual maintenance fees and modification of the royalty fee structure. The common stock was valued at approximately $577,000 and was initially charged to unearned compensation with an offsetting credit to additional paid-in capital. The unearned compensation will be amortized to research and licensing expense over four years, the estimated benefit period. During the year ended December 31, 2002, approximately $24,000 was amortized. In 2002, the Company entered into two license agreements with another university whereby the university granted to the Company the sole and exclusive right and license to certain patent rights and technical information. In conjunction with the agreements, the Company paid the university an initial fee of $100,000 and $50,000, respectively for each agreement. In addition, the Company is committed to pay annual maintenance fees of $100,000 and $20,000, respectively, as well as benchmark payments and royalties, as defined. The maintenance fees can be applied to royalty and benchmark fees incurred in the calendar year of payment only. The licenses shall continue for the lives of the patents covered in the agreements. The Company shall have the right to terminate the agreements at any time upon 90 days written notice to the university. In August 2002, the Company entered into a license agreement with two universities whereby the universities grant to the Company a nonexclusive license to certain patent rights and technical information. An initial fee of $20,000 was paid to each of the two universities pursuant to the agreement. In addition, the Company is committed to pay an annual maintenance fee of $5,000 per year to each of the two universities. In conjunction with the agreement, the Company shall make payments upon reaching certain milestones, as defined. The Company shall have the right to terminate the agreement at any time upon 90 days written notice to the university. CONSULTING AGREEMENTS: The Company has consulting agreements with four scientists who comprise of the Company's Scientific Advisory Board. These agreements provide that the scientists are engaged by the Company to provide advice and consulting services in scientific research on human gene therapy in the brain and central nervous system and to assist the Company in seeking financing and meeting with prospective investors. The first agreement, as amended on October 8, 2003, provides for payments of $74,000 per annum through September 2007. The second agreement, as amended on October 8, 2003, provides for payments of $124,000 per annum through 2007.

These consulting agreements are subject to confidentiality, proprietary information and invention agreements. Any discoveries and intellectual property obtained through these agreements related to the research covered under the agreements is to be assigned to the Company. OPERATING LEASE AGREEMENT: In September 2002, the Company entered into an operating lease agreement, expiring in September 2003, with a university for office space. The Company uses the space for research and development and related business development. Approximate future minimum payments are $38,000 for 2003. Rent expense under the lease was approximately $13,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. F-62 NEUROLOGIX, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 8 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: In January 2003, the Company entered into a capital lease agreement for equipment. The lease term commenced in March 2003 upon completion of the installation of the equipment. The lease term is for two years and provides for monthly payments of approximately $1,900. In addition to the monthly payments, the lease provides for the Company to pay all operating expenses, including insurance, maintenance, taxes and assessments. As described in Note 2, on August 13, 2003 the Company entered into the merger agreement with Change. Under the merger agreement, Subcorp will merge with and into Neurologix, with Neurologix being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Change. Under the merger agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of Neurologix common stock and preferred stock will automatically convert into Change common stock. The actual number of shares of Change common stock to be issued in the Merger is directly related to Change's Net Cash Assets as of the closing of the Merger. As of July 31, 2003, Change estimated that its Net Cash Assets at closing would be approximately $7,139,995. Accordingly, had the Exchange Ratio been determined as of July 31, 2003, it would have been 70.2127 resulting in an aggregate of 391,275,156 shares of Change common stock being issued to existing Neurologix stockholders and approximately 32% and 68% of the common stock of the combined company outstanding after the Merger being held by existing Change stockholders and existing Neurologix stockholders, respectively. In addition, Neurologix has outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 257,000 shares of its common stock, which, in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, would automatically convert into options to purchase an aggregate of 18,044,664 shares of Change common stock. Since the stockholders of Neurologix will receive the majority of the voting shares of the combined company, and the board of directors and management of the combined company will be controlled by members of the board of directors and management of Neurologix, the Merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Neurologix will be the acquirer and Change will be the acquiree for accounting purposes. The merger agreement further provides for all of the outstanding preferred stock of the Company to be converted into shares of common stock and for the note payable with the related party to be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at the conversion price of $6 per share. Concurrent with the execution of the merger agreement, Change loaned the Company $750,000 and the Company issued a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000 due April 30, 2004 in favor of Change. On November 14, 2003, the merger agreement was amended to increase the amount of the loan to $1,100,000 and to extend the term of the loan to June 30, 2004. Change funded the additional $350,000 amount of the loan on December 18, 2003. The note accrues interest at 4% per annum, is collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and is senior to all existing indebtedness of the Company. In addition, in August 2003, Neurologix entered into a one year lease agreement for facilities expiring on August 31, 2004 that provides for annual rent of $43,620. * * * F-63 APPENDIX A EXECUTION COPY AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER BY AND AMONG CHANGE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS, INC., CTP/N MERGER CORP., AND NEUROLOGIX, INC.

As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Subcorp shall cease and Neurologix shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Delaware. Neurologix, in its capacity as the corporation surviving the Merger, is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Surviving Corporation." 2.2 Effective Time; Closing. Upon completion of the Closing on the Closing Date, the Parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Secretary of State") a certificate of merger (the "Certificate of Merger") in such form as is required by and executed in accordance with Section 251 of the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective (the "Effective Time") at 12:01 a.m. on the date when the Certificate of Merger is filed with the Secretary of State or at such later time and date as shall be agreed upon by CTP and Neurologix and specified in the Certificate of Merger. Prior to the filing referred to in this Section 2.2, the closing of the Merger (the "Closing") shall be held at the offices of Lowenstein Sandler PC, 65 Livingston Avenue, Roseland, New Jersey 07068, or such other place as the Parties may agree, on a date specified by Neurologix (provided that such date is, absent CTP's concurrence, no more than five Business Days following the first date upon which all conditions set forth in Article VI (other than the conditions which may be satisfied solely by the delivery of documentation within the control of the Party required to deliver such documentation) have been satisfied or waived), or at such other date as CTP and Neurologix may agree, provided that the conditions set forth in Article VI have been A-5 satisfied or waived at or prior to such date. The date on which the Closing takes place is referred to herein as the "Closing Date." 2.3 Effects of the Merger. From and after the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects set forth in Sections 259 through 261 of the DGCL. 2.4 Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws. At the Effective Time, (i) the certificate of incorporation of Neurologix as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, with a new corporate name to be designated by Neurologix and (ii) the by-laws of Neurologix in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation, in each case until amended in accordance with applicable law. 2.5 Directors and Officers of Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, the individuals listed on Section 2.5 of the Neurologix Disclosure Letter shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation and the DGCL. On or prior to the Closing Date, Subcorp shall deliver to Neurologix a written resignation, in form and substance satisfactory to Neurologix, from each officer and director of Subcorp, effective as of the Effective Time. 2.6 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, and without any action on the part of any of the Parties, the securities of the constituent corporations shall be converted as follows: 2.6.1 Cancellation of Treasury Stock and CTP-Owned Stock. Each share of Neurologix Stock owned by Neurologix or by CTP that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the "Excluded Shares") shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and no shares of CTP Common Stock or other consideration shall be paid in exchange for those Excluded Shares. 2.6.2 Subcorp's Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Subcorp issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Such newly issued shares shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation, and shall be owned by CTP. 2.6.3 Neurologix Stock. If immediately prior to the Closing, (i) CTP's Net Cash Assets are at least $7.5 million, and (ii) Neurologix has not raised cash proceeds between the date hereof and the Closing through the issuance and sale of additional equity securities, then upon consummation of the Merger, (x) each share of Neurologix Common Stock, Neurologix Series A Preferred (on an as-converted to Neurologix Common Stock basis) and Neurologix Series B Preferred (on an as-converted to Neurologix Common Stock basis) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding Excluded Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into that number of shares of CTP Common Stock multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and (y) the aggregate number of shares of CTP Common Stock issuable at the Effective Time shall equal the Total CTP Stock Consideration. Total CTP Existing Shares multiplied by 2 EXCHANGE RATIO = ----------------------------------------- Total Neurologix Existing Shares TOTAL CTP STOCK CONSIDERATION = Total Neurologix Existing Shares multiplied by Exchange Ratio WHERE: "Total CTP Existing Shares" means the number of shares of CTP Common Stock (i) issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time, (ii) issuable upon conversion of all CTP convertible securities including shares of CTP Series A Preferred Stock, and (iii) issuable upon exercise of all CTP Existing Options with an exercise price per share that is less than or equal to $0.03, which options, as reflected in the CTP Disclosure Letter, provide for the purchase of 12,000,000 shares of CTP Common Stock (the "CTP In-the-Money Options"). A-6 "Total Neurologix Existing Shares" means the number of shares of Neurologix Common Stock (i) issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time, (ii) issuable upon conversion of all Neurologix convertible securities including shares of Neurologix Series A Preferred and Neurologix Series B Preferred, (iii) issuable upon exchange of the Neurologix Note as provided in the Voting Agreement and (iv) issuable upon exercise of all Neurologix Options with an exercise price per share less than or equal to $0.25, which options, as reflected in the Neurologix Disclosure Letter, provide for the purchase of 232,000 shares of Neurologix Common Stock (the "Neurologix In-the-Money Options"), in each case, excluding all Excluded Shares but including all Dissenting Shares. 2.6.3.1 At the Effective Time, all shares of Neurologix Stock that have been converted into the right to receive shares of CTP Common Stock shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and the holders thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares, other than the right to receive certificates representing shares of CTP Common Stock upon surrender of the relevant instrument in accordance with Section 2.7. 2.6.3.2 Upon consummation of the Merger, each Neurologix Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into a CTP Exchange Option pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.9. 2.6.3.3 Annexed to CTP's Disclosure Letter is a worksheet setting forth a description of the allocation of the Total CTP Stock Consideration among the Neurologix Holders (the "Allocation") that would be in effect if the Total CTP Stock Consideration was determined as of the date hereof based upon CTP's Net Cash Assets at this date (including a reasonable estimate of all costs and liabilities of all pending litigations and other claims and contingent liabilities, and an estimate of the costs required to wind down CTP's business), the number of shares of CTP Common Stock and CTP Existing Options outstanding at this date, the number of shares of Neurologix Stock and the number of Neurologix Options outstanding at this date, and the number of shares of Neurologix Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Neurologix Note (the "Worksheet"). 2.6.3.4 At least five Business Days prior to the time set for the Closing, CTP shall deliver to Neurologix CTP's good faith calculation of the Allocation (the "CTP Calculation"), which shall (a) be prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6.3 or 2.6.4, as applicable, (b) be reflected in the form of the Worksheet (the "Updated Worksheet"), (c) include CTP's good faith estimate of CTP's Net Cash Assets as of the Closing Date, and (d) set forth (i) the calculation of the Total CTP Stock Consideration, (ii) each of the calculations contemplated by Section 2.6.3 or 2.6.4, as applicable, and (iii) confirm the number of shares of CTP Common Stock outstanding and the number of shares of CTP Common Stock issuable upon the exercise and/or conversion of all CTP convertible securities including the CTP Series A Preferred Stock and CTP In-the-Money Options. At least seven Business Days prior to the time set for the Closing, Neurologix shall deliver to CTP a certificate setting forth the total number of shares of Neurologix Common Stock then outstanding and the number of shares of Neurologix Common Stock issuable upon the exercise and/or conversion of the other Neurologix Stock, the Neurologix In-the-Money Options and the Neurologix Note then outstanding, which CTP shall use in preparing the CTP Calculation. In addition, CTP shall, following the date hereof and through Closing, apprise Neurologix of (a) any pending or threatened litigations, claims and other contingent liabilities that were not reflected on the Worksheet and (b) any event or fact that occurs, or of which CTP becomes aware, after the date hereof that could reasonably affect the estimate of any litigation, claim and other contingent liability listed on the Worksheet. 2.6.3.5 Promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days after receipt of the CTP Calculation, Neurologix shall deliver to CTP a notice (the "Neurologix Reaction Notice") specifying whether Neurologix concurs with the CTP Calculation or disputes any aspect of the CTP Calculation. To enable Neurologix to evaluate the CTP Calculation, CTP and its Subsidiaries shall make available to CTP and its representatives all of the personnel, properties, contracts, books and records, and all other documents and data of CTP and its Subsidiaries that Neurologix shall A-7 reasonably request. In the event that the Neurologix Reaction Notice indicates that Neurologix concurs with the CTP Calculation, the CTP Calculation shall be determinative for purposes of determining the Allocation at Closing. With respect to any liability or obligation of CTP or its Subsidiaries for which an estimate of the amount thereof is set forth on the Worksheet, the parties hereto agree that such estimate shall be the amount of such liability or obligation for purposes of the CTP Calculation and that Neurologix shall not dispute such estimate unless (i) the actual amount of such liability or obligation becomes known after the date hereof, in which case such actual amount shall be used in the CTP Calculation (ii) any event occurs after the date of this Agreement as a result of which any party hereto no longer believes that such estimate is reasonable or (iii) any party hereto becomes aware, after the date of this Agreement, of any fact (including, without limitation, any change, modification, or clarification of any fact of which such party was aware prior to the date of this Agreement) as a result of which such party no longer believes that such estimate is reasonable. CTP and Neurologix agree that to the extent the receivable owing to CTP in connection with CTP's lease for 16 West 19th Street (the "Glaser Receivable") is not collected by CTP prior to Closing and provided that Neurologix receives a letter from the lessor reasonably satisfactory to Neurologix to the effect that the Glaser Receivable will be paid within a reasonable time after Closing, the Glaser Receivable shall be included in the calculation of CTP's Net Cash Assets less a $40,000 reserve. CTP and Neurologix agree that to the extent any other receivable set forth on the Worksheet is not collected prior to Closing, such receivable (less a reserve mutually agreed to by CTP and Neurologix) shall be included in the calculation of CTP's Net Cash Assets if, and only if, CTP can provide assurance reasonably satisfactory to Neurologix that such receivable shall be paid within a reasonable time after Closing. Subject to the preceding three sentences, in the event that the Neurologix Reaction Notice indicates that Neurologix disputes any aspect of the CTP Calculation, CTP and Neurologix shall engage an accountant mutually acceptable to CTP and Neurologix (the "Accountants") to promptly review the determination of such aspect of the CTP Calculation and resolve such dispute. In the event that such disputes cannot be resolved prior to the date set for the Closing, the date set for the Closing shall be deferred until such disputes are resolved (but in no event later than the Outside Date). In the event the dispute relates to an estimate of liability for pending or threatened litigation, or other claim or contingent liability, the parties will ask the Accountants to assist them in mediating the dispute. 2.6.4 Adjustment in Calculation of Exchange Ratio. If immediately prior to the Closing, CTP's Net Cash Assets are less than $7.5 million or if Neurologix has raised cash proceeds between the date hereof and the Closing through the issuance and sale of additional equity, then, for purposes of this Agreement, the Exchange Ratio shall be calculated as follows: Total CTP Existing Shares multiplied by X EXCHANGE RATIO = ----------------------------------------- Total Neurologix Existing Shares WHERE "X" IS THE QUOTIENT: obtained by dividing (x) $15.0 million by (y) the lesser of the (i) amount of CTP's Net Cash Assets as of the Closing Date or (ii) $7.5 million. In the event that Neurologix sells any additional equity during the period between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the net cash proceeds there from (after all expenses incurred relating thereto) shall be added to the numerator. 2.6.5 No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of CTP Common Stock shall be issued as a result of any conversion provided for in this Section 2.6. All fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole number, with .5 rounded up. If more than one certificate representing shares of Neurologix Stock shall be surrendered for the account of the same holder, the number of shares of Neurologix Common Stock for which certificates have been surrendered shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares (on an as-converted to Neurologix Common A-8 Stock basis) represented by the certificates so surrendered. No cash shall be paid in lieu of fractional shares. 2.6.6 Anti-Dilution Protection. 2.6.6.1 To the extent not already taken into account in computing the Exchange Ratio, in the event that, prior to the Effective Time, CTP shall declare a stock dividend or other distribution payable in shares of CTP Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of CTP Common Stock, or effect a stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination or any other comparable change with respect to CTP Common Stock, the shares of CTP Common Stock to be received by each Stockholder in the Merger shall be correspondingly adjusted to reflect such dividend, distribution, stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination or other comparable change. 2.6.6.2 To the extent not already taken into account in computing the Exchange Ratio, in the event that, prior to the Effective Time, Neurologix shall declare a stock dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Neurologix Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of Neurologix Common Stock, or effect a stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination or any other comparable change with respect to Neurologix Common Stock, the shares of CTP Common Stock to be received by each Stockholder in the Merger shall be correspondingly adjusted to reflect such dividend, distribution, stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination or other comparable change. 2.6.7 Dissenting Stock. Any holder of shares of Neurologix Stock shall have the right to appraisal in the manner provided in Section 262 of the DGCL, and if all necessary requirements of the DGCL are met, such shares shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL ("Dissenting Stock"); provided, however, that (i) if any holder of Dissenting Stock shall subsequently withdraw such holder's demand for appraisal of such shares within sixty days of the Effective Time, or (ii) if any holder fails to follow the procedures for establishing such holder's entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in the DGCL, the right to appraisal of such shares shall be forfeited and such shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into the right to receive and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the shares of CTP Common Stock such holder would have been entitled to receive had such holder not exercised appraisal rights. 2.6.8 Tax Consequences. It is intended that the Merger shall constitute a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall constitute a "plan of reorganization" for the purposes of the Code. 2.7 Exchange of Certificates. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the exchange of certificates pursuant to the Merger: 2.7.1 Procedures. Prior to the Closing, CTP shall enter into an exchange agency agreement with the Exchange Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Neurologix, pursuant to which the Exchange Agent shall perform the obligations of the Exchange Agent described in this Agreement. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, CTP shall mail, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail, to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates (the "Certificates") which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented issued and outstanding shares of Neurologix Stock, a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to CTP and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Neurologix and CTP may reasonably specify, including customary waivers and releases of liability and which shall contain instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing shares of CTP Common Stock). Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (and CTP shall cause the Exchange Agent to promptly deliver) a certificate representing that number of whole shares of CTP Common Stock which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.6 rounded to the nearest whole number. Any A-9 Certificate so surrendered shall be immediately canceled. No cash shall be payable in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Neurologix Stock which is not registered on the transfer records of Neurologix, a certificate representing the proper number of whole shares of CTP Common Stock may be issued to such transferee if the Certificate representing such shares of Neurologix Stock held by such transferee is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.7, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon surrender a certificate representing shares of CTP Common Stock. 2.7.2 Stock Transfer Books; Extinction of Stockholder Rights. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Neurologix shall be closed with respect to the shares of Neurologix Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. All shares of CTP Common Stock issued upon surrender of a Certificate in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to that Certificate and the shares of Neurologix Stock represented thereby, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of Neurologix of shares of Neurologix Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a Certificate is presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, it shall be canceled and exchanged for certificates representing shares of CTP Common Stock as provided in this Article II. 2.7.3 Lost Certificates. In the event that any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the Exchange Agent's receipt of appropriate evidence as to such loss, theft or destruction and as to the ownership of such Certificate by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and the receipt by CTP and the Exchange Agent of reasonably appropriate and customary indemnification, CTP shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, shares of CTP Common Stock deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 2.8 Delivery of CTP Common Stock to Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, CTP shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of each Stockholder, for exchange in accordance with this Article II, certificates representing the shares of CTP Common Stock issuable to each Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.6 upon conversion of outstanding shares of Neurologix Stock. 2.9 Treatment of Neurologix Stock Options. Prior to the Effective Time, CTP and Neurologix shall take all such actions as may be necessary such that at the Effective Time each unexpired and unexercised Neurologix Option prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action by the holder of such Neurologix Option, be automatically converted at the Effective Time into an option (an "CTP Exchange Option") to purchase that number of shares of CTP Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Neurologix Common Stock covered by such Neurologix Option multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, which number shall be correspondingly adjusted (to the extent not already taken into account in computing the Exchange Ratio) to reflect the effect of any adjustment made pursuant to Section 2.6.4. Each CTP Exchange Option shall have an exercise price equal to the exercise price which existed under the corresponding Neurologix Option divided by the Exchange Ratio but in no event less than the par value of the shares of CTP Common Stock underlying such CTP Exchange Option. With the exception of the adjustments set forth above and the fact that the CTP Exchange Options shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of CTP's board of directors or such other committee as shall be designated from time to time by such board, the terms and conditions of each CTP Exchange Option shall be identical to the terms and conditions to which the corresponding Neurologix Option was subject immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that with respect to any Neurologix Option that is an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, the foregoing conversion shall be carried out in a manner satisfying the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code. In connection with the issuance of CTP Exchange Options, CTP shall (i) reserve for issuance the number of shares of CTP Common Stock that will become subject to CTP Exchange Options pursuant to this Section 2.9 and (ii) register the shares of CTP Common Stock subject to the CTP Exchange Options on a registration statement on Form S-8 to the extent that such shares are so registerable.

Section 3.8 of the Neurologix Disclosure Letter sets forth a true and complete list of all registrations and issuances of, and applications for, any Intellectual Property owned or purported to be owned by Neurologix, setting forth the serial or registration number and name or title of each item of Intellectual Property. To the best of Neurologix's knowledge, Neurologix's operations do not infringe upon or conflict with the asserted rights of any other person under any Intellectual Property. To the best of Neurologix's knowledge, all such Intellectual Property owned, purported to be owned or licensed by Neurologix, or which Neurologix otherwise uses, reproduces, prepares derivative works based upon, distributes, performs, displays, makes, has made, sells, offers to sell and imports (collectively, "Practices"), is valid and enforceable and has not been challenged in any judicial or administrative proceeding. To the best of Neurologix's knowledge, no claim is pending or threatened against Neurologix to the effect that any such Intellectual Property owned or licensed by Neurologix, or which Neurologix otherwise Practices, is invalid or unenforceable by Neurologix. To the best of Neurologix's knowledge, no Person nor such Person's business or products has infringed, misused, misappropriated or conflicted with such Intellectual Property owned, purported to be owned or licensed by Neurologix, or which Neurologix otherwise Practices or currently is infringing, misusing, misappropriating or conflicting with such Intellectual Property owned, purported to be owned or licensed by Neurologix, or which Neurologix otherwise Practices. To the best of Neurologix's knowledge, Neurologix has made, or is diligently preparing to make, all statutorily required filings in the United States, if any, to record its interests, and taken reasonable actions to protect its rights in such Intellectual Property owned or licensed by Neurologix, or which Neurologix otherwise Practices. Except as set forth on Section 3.8 of the Neurologix Disclosure Letter, Neurologix is: (i) diligently preparing to file patent applications in the United States and all foreign jurisdictions in which Neurologix currently contemplates conducting business for all inventions which Neurologix owns or with respect to which Neurologix has the contractual right to control the filing of a patent application and which Neurologix believes are material to its business within a sufficient time period to avoid statutory disqualification of any such potential application; and (ii) diligently prosecuting all patent applications it has previously filed and which it deems to be material to its business. Except as set forth on Section 3.8 of the Neurologix Disclosure Letter, each present or past employee, officer or consultant who developed any part of any product of Neurologix or any Intellectual Property that is or will be Practiced by Neurologix has executed an invention assignment agreement with Neurologix substantially in the form provided to counsel to CTP. It is not necessary for the business of Neurologix to acquire the rights to Practice any Intellectual Property owned by any present or past director, officer, employee or consultant of Neurologix (or Persons Neurologix presently intends to hire), except for such rights which Neurologix already has acquired. To the knowledge of Neurologix, at no time during the conception or reduction to practice of any of the Intellectual Property that is or currently is intended to be Practiced by Neurologix was any developer, A-14 inventor or other contributor to such Intellectual Property operating under any grants from any Governmental Authorities or subject to any employment agreement, invention, assignment, nondisclosure agreement or other contract with any Person (other than institutions to which Neurologix is a party to research or license agreements, copies of which agreements have been delivered to CTP's counsel) that could adversely affect the rights of Neurologix to such Intellectual Property. Neurologix is a joint owner, together with Rockefeller University ("RU") and Thomas Jefferson University ("TJU"), and is an exclusive licensee of RU's and TJU's interest in, the intellectual property contained in United States provisional patent application No. 60/292,604, filed on May 22,2001, titled "Transcriptional Regulation of Target Genes" Klauber & Jackson Docket No. 2573-1-001P, and the related non-provisional patent application No. 10/151,702 (publication no. 20020087264 A1), which bears the same title (collectively, the "MDT IP") subject to an agreement between Neurologix and Medtronic Neurological, dated as of February 28, 2002. The MDT IP (i) is not necessary to the conduct of Neurologix's business as currently conducted or its current product strategy, and (ii) will not be part of Neurologix's Phase I human clinical trials of gene therapy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. 3.9 Financial Statements.

Neurologix has complied in all material respects with all federal, state or local statutes, ordinances, orders, judgments, rulings or regulations relating to protection of the environment or natural resources or to environmental regulation or control (collectively, "Environmental Laws").

If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, Neurologix or CTP shall obtain knowledge of any information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement that would require an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, the Party obtaining such knowledge will so advise the other Party in writing and both Neurologix and CTP will promptly take such action as shall be required to amend or supplement the Registration Statement and/or the Prospectus/Proxy Statement. Neurologix shall promptly furnish to CTP all information concerning it as may be required for the Prospectus/Proxy Statement and any supplements or amendments thereto, including without limitation, financial statements in conformity with all applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, as the case may be. CTP and Neurologix shall cooperate in the preparation of the Prospectus/Proxy Statement in a timely fashion and shall use all reasonable efforts to clear the Registration Statement with the Staff of the SEC. Promptly after the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, Neurologix shall use all reasonable efforts to mail at the earliest practicable date to its Stockholders the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, which shall include all information required under applicable law to be furnished to Neurologix's Stockholders in connection with the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby. Promptly after the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, CTP shall use all reasonable efforts to mail at the earliest practicable date to its stockholders the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, which shall include all information required under applicable law to be furnished to CTP's stockholders in connection with the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Amendments and the election of directors as contemplated herein by Section 5.10. 5.8.2 None of the financial or other information to be supplied by Neurologix or its representatives for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, including all amendments and supplements thereto, shall, in the case of the Registration Statement, at (i) the time the Registration Statement becomes effective, (ii) the Closing and (iii) the Effective Time, and, in the case of the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, (iv) on the date or dates the Prospectus/Proxy Statement is first mailed to CTP's Stockholders, (v) at the date or dates of the CTP Meeting, (vi) at the Closing, and (vii) at the Effective Time, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. Neurologix agrees that the financial statements of Neurologix to be included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus/Proxy Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as the case may be. 5.8.3 None of the financial or other information supplied by CTP for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, including all amendments and supplements thereto, shall, in the case of the Registration Statement, at (i) the time the Registration Statement becomes effective, (ii) the Closing and (iii) the Effective Time, and, in the case of the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, (iv) on the date or dates the Prospectus/Proxy Statement is first mailed to CTP's stockholders, (v) at the date or dates of the CTP Meeting, (vi) at the Closing, and (vii) at the Effective Time, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. CTP agrees that the Registration Statement and the Prospectus/Proxy Statement will (with respect to CTP and Subcorp) comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as the case may be. 5.9 Affiliates of Neurologix. Within ten business days of the date hereof, Neurologix shall cause each Person who may be at the Effective Time, or was on the date hereof, an "affiliate" of Neurologix for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act to execute and deliver to CTP a letter in the form and substance of the letter annexed hereto as Appendix 5.9 (the "Neurologix Affiliate's Letter"). Neurologix has provided CTP with a letter specifying all of the persons or entities who, in Neurologix's opinion, may be deemed to be "affiliates" of Neurologix under the preceding sentence. The foregoing notwithstanding, CTP shall be entitled A-29 to place legends as specified in the Neurologix Affiliate's Letter on the certificates evidencing any shares of the CTP Common Stock to be received by (i) any such "affiliate" of Neurologix specified in such letter or (ii) any Person CTP reasonably identifies (by written notice to Neurologix) as being a Person who may be deemed an "affiliate" for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act, and to issue appropriate stop transfer instructions to the transfer agent for the CTP Common Stock, consistent with the terms of the Neurologix Affiliate's Letter, regardless of whether such Person has executed the Neurologix Affiliate's Letter and regardless of whether such Person's name appears on the letter to be delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence. 5.10 Board of Directors of CTP. On or prior to the Closing Date, CTP shall deliver to Neurologix a written resignation, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Neurologix, from each officer and director of CTP (other than no more than two directors to be designated by CTP, referred to as the "CTP Directors"), effective as of the Effective Time. At the Effective Time, CTP's board of directors shall consist of the CTP Directors and the five members of Neurologix's then current board of directors (the "Existing Neurologix Directors") plus up to two additional members to be designated by Neurologix (together with the Existing Neurologix Directors, the "Neurologix Designated Directors"). Following the Effective Time, the board of directors of CTP shall be free to fix the number of directors from time to time and to nominate, or have a Nominating Committee nominate, such directors as such board or committee may choose in its sole discretion. Upon the Closing of the Merger, pursuant to an election of directors at the CTP Meeting, CTP's board of directors shall be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in size as is practicable, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. At the first annual meeting of CTP's stockholders following the dates of the Closing of the Merger, the term of office of the Class I directors shall expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the second annual meeting of CTP's stockholders following the Closing of the Merger, the term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of stockholders following the Closing of the Merger, the term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At each succeeding annual meeting of CTP's stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual meeting. At the Effective Time, each of the CTP Directors shall be designated as Class III directors and each of the Neurologix Designated Directors shall be designated by Neurologix, in its discretion, as either Class I, Class II or Class III directors as necessary to make each class of directors as nearly equal as possible. At the CTP Meeting, CTP's stockholders shall take all action required by applicable law to ensure that at the Effective Time, CTP's board of directors will consist of the persons described in this Section 5.10. 5.11 Merger Subsidiary. Prior to the Effective Time, Subcorp shall not conduct any business or make any investments other than as specifically contemplated by this Agreement and will not have any assets (other than a nominal amount of cash paid to Subcorp for the issuance of its stock to CTP) or any material liabilities. 5.12 No Solicitation. 5.12.1 CTP agrees that, during the term of this Agreement, it shall not, and it shall cause its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, encourage or facilitate, or furnish or disclose non-public information in furtherance of, any inquiries or the making of any proposal with respect to any recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other business combination involving CTP or Subcorp, or acquisition of any capital stock of CTP or Subcorp or 5% or more of the assets of CTP or any of its Subsidiaries in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, or any acquisition by CTP or Subcorp of any material assets or capital stock of any other Person, or any liquidation of CTP or Subcorp, or any combination of the foregoing (a "Competing Transaction"), or negotiate, explore or otherwise engage in discussions with any Person (other than Neurologix and its directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives) with respect to any Competing Transaction or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement. CTP will immediately cease all existing activities, discussions and negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any proposal for a Competing Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.12.1 or in any other provision of A-30 this Agreement, CTP and CTP's board of directors may ask questions of, consider and clarify a proposal from, and conduct a due diligence investigation of (but not negotiate with or provide any information to, without Neurologix's prior written consent) any third party making an unsolicited Competing Transaction (a "Potential Acquirer"), solely for the purpose of evaluating such Competing Transaction, if CTP's board of directors or any committee thereof determines, after consultation with CTP's Financial Advisor and CTP's legal counsel, that (A) such third party has submitted to CTP a Competing Transaction which has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in a Superior Proposal (as defined in Section 5.12.1.3), and (B) the failure to participate in such process will constitute a breach of CTP's board of directors' fiduciary duties under applicable law. In the event that CTP shall determine to enter into the process described above, or shall receive any Competing Transaction, it shall promptly (subject to obligations under any confidentiality agreement) inform Neurologix in writing of the identity of the Potential Acquirer and the material terms of such Competing Transaction. If CTP, after consultation with its Financial Advisor and CTP's legal counsel, determines that the Competing Transaction is a Superior Proposal, and the failure to consider such Competing Transaction would constitute a breach of CTP's board of directors' fiduciary duties under applicable law, then it shall promptly notify Neurologix of such determination, and CTP and CTP's board of directors, if CTP has complied with the provisions of this Section 5.12.1, may participate in discussions or negotiations (including, as a part thereof, making any counterproposal) with the Potential Acquirer. In the event that CTP shall determine to provide any information to such Potential Acquirer following its determination that the Competing Transaction is a Superior Proposal it shall promptly (within two (2) Business Days) inform Neurologix orally and in writing as to the fact that information is to be provided. CTP agrees that any non-public information furnished to a Potential Acquirer will be pursuant to a confidentiality agreement on terms no less favorable to CTP than the confidentiality provisions contained in this Agreement. CTP will inform Neurologix promptly of any related developments, discussions and negotiations with respect to the Competing Transaction (including the terms and conditions of the Competing Transaction and any modifications or changes thereto). 5.12.1.1 Subject to Section 5.12.1.2 below, neither CTP's board of directors nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to Neurologix, the approval or recommendation by CTP's board of directors or committee thereof of this Agreement and the Merger, (ii) approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or recommend, any Competing Transaction or (iii) cause CTP to enter into, approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or recommend, or execute, any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other agreement relating to any Competing Transaction or agree or propose to agree to do any of the foregoing, or (iv) submit any Competing Transaction at the CTP Meeting or any other stockholders meeting for purposes of voting upon approval and adoption of the Competing Transaction. 5.12.1.2 Notwithstanding Section 5.12.1.1 above, CTP's board of directors (or any committee thereof) may withdraw or modify its approval or recommendation of this Agreement or the Merger and approve or recommend a Competing Transaction, if CTP has complied with the provisions of this Section 5.12.1 and, in the event that CTP's board of directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with the Financial Advisor and CTP's legal counsel, that the Competing Transaction is a Superior Proposal, and that the failure to take such action would be a breach of CTP's board of directors' or any such committee's fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided, however, that prior to taking any such action, the Company shall (A) notify Neurologix in writing that it intends to enter into an agreement relating to a Superior Proposal (which notice shall include the most recent draft of such Superior Proposal), (B) during the two (2) Business Days following CTP's notice (or such longer period as agreed to by the parties), CTP shall negotiate in good faith with Neurologix to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of such Agreement such that the Competing Transaction is no longer a Superior Proposal, and CTP's board of directors (or committee thereof) shall have concluded, after termination of such time period, that the Competing Transaction giving rise to CTP's obligations to provide notice hereunder, continues to be a Superior Proposal, (C) pay the termination fee set forth in Section 7.2.2.2 to Neurologix in full A-31 and in immediately available funds and (D) deliver written acknowledgment from CTP and from the other Person to the Competing Transaction that CTP and such other Person have irrevocably waived any right to contest such payment. 5.12.1.3 For purposes of this Agreement, a "Superior Proposal" means any bona fide written proposal (or its most recent amended or modified terms, if amended or modified) made by a Potential Acquirer to enter into an Acquisition Proposal, the effect of which would be that (i) the Company stockholders would beneficially own less than 20% of the voting stock, common stock and participating stock of the combined or on-going entity, or (ii) the transaction would result in the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of CTP and Subcorp, taken as a whole, and which CTP determines in its good faith judgment, based on among other things, the advice of the Financial Advisor, if consummated, would result in a transaction more favorable to CTP's stockholders from a financial point of view than the Merger, taking into account all relevant factors (including whether, in the good faith judgment of CTP's board of directors, after obtaining the advice of the Financial Advisor, the Potential Acquirer is reasonably able to finance the transaction, whether such transaction is subject to any material contingency to which the other party has not demonstrated its ability to overcome and whether such transaction is reasonably capable of being completed, and any proposed changes to this Agreement that may be proposed by Neurologix in response to the Competing Transaction). 5.12.1.4 During the period from the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, CTP shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality or standstill agreement (other than any entered into in the ordinary course of business not in connection with any possible Competing Transaction) to which it or Subcorp is a party. 5.12.2 Neurologix agrees that, during the term of this Agreement, it shall not, and it shall cause its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, encourage or facilitate, or furnish or disclose non-public information in furtherance of, any inquiries or the making of any Competing Transaction involving Neurologix with respect to, or negotiate, explore or otherwise engage in discussions with any Person (other than CTP and its directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives) with respect to any such Competing Transaction or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Neurologix will immediately cease all existing activities, discussions and negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any proposal for a Competing Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Neurologix shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to raise up to $1.0 million of additional equity between the date hereof and the Closing Date. 5.13 Reorganization Treatment. This Agreement is intended to constitute a "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the income tax regulations promulgated under the Code. Each of the Parties shall use its best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a "reorganization" under Section 368(a) of the Code. No Party shall knowingly take any action inconsistent with the treatment of the Merger as a "reorganization" under Section 368(a) of the Code. 5.14 Directors' and Officers' Insurance. For a period of six years after the Closing, CTP shall maintain in effect a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance covering all individuals who were directors and officers of Neurologix immediately prior to the Closing, with coverage limits no less favorable than those currently in effect. All rights to indemnification now existing in favor of any such director or officer as provided in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Neurologix in effect on the date of this Agreement shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of not less than six years after the Closing. 5.15 Stock Option Plan. CTP may establish a new incentive stock option plan (the "New Stock Option Plan") after Closing, provided that all options under the plan, if fully exercised, would represent no more than 5% of the total number of shares of CTP Common Stock outstanding immediately after adoption. Such New Stock Option Plan shall not be amended or replaced for a period ending 18 months after the Effective Date. A-32 5.16 Neurologix Loan. On the date hereof, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, CTP shall loan to Neurologix the principal amount of $750,000 secured by all of the assets of Neurologix. Interest on the unpaid principal shall accrue at the rate of 4% per year. The outstanding principal under the Loan and the accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable on demand at any time after April 30, 2004. In the event that the Merger is consummated pursuant to this Agreement, the principal amount and accrued interest on such Loan shall be included in the calculation of CTP's Net Cash Assets. ARTICLE VI CONDITIONS 6.1 Conditions to the Obligations of Each Party. The obligations of Neurologix, CTP and Subcorp to consummate the Merger shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: 6.1.1 No Governmental Entity shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree, injunction or other order which is in effect, which would prohibit consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 6.1.2 There shall not be pending any legal proceeding by any Governmental Entity or other third party (i) challenging or seeking to restrain or prohibit the consummation of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prohibit or limit the ownership or operation by Neurologix, CTP or Subcorp of, or to compel Neurologix, CTP or Subcorp to dispose of or hold separate, any material portion of the business or assets of Neurologix, CTP or any Subsidiary of CTP, as a result of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) seeking to impose limitations on the ability of CTP to acquire or hold, or exercise full rights of ownership of, any shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation, including the right to vote such capital stock on all matters properly presented to the stockholders of the Surviving Corporation. 6.1.3 The Merger, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, the Amendments and the election of directors contemplated herein shall have been approved and adopted by CTP's stockholders in the manner required by any applicable law. 6.1.4 The SEC shall have declared the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act, and no stop order or similar restraining order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for such purpose shall be pending before or threatened by the SEC or any state securities administrator. 6.1.5 All consents, approvals and action of any Governmental Entity required to permit the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware) shall have been obtained or made. 6.2 Conditions to CTP's and Subcorp's Obligations.

7.1.2 by either CTP or Neurologix if there shall be any law or regulation that, as supported by the written opinion of legal counsel, makes consummation of the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibited, or if any judgment, injunction, order or decree of a Governmental Entity enjoining CTP or Neurologix from consummating the Merger shall have been entered and such judgment, injunction, order or decree shall have become final and nonappealable; 7.1.3 by either CTP or Neurologix if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before December 19, 2003 (the "Outside Date"); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1.3 shall not be available to any Party whose failure or whose Affiliate's failure to A-35 perform any material covenant or obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Merger to occur on or before such date;

The Noteholders agree that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Target be required or obligated to issue more than 400,000 Target Exchange Common Shares in the aggregate to the Noteholders in consideration of their exchange of the Neurologix Note.

MERCHANT BANKING GROUP 445 PARK AVENUE, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10022 August 11, 2003 Board of Directors Change Technology Partners, Inc. 537 Steamboat Road, 2nd Floor Greenwich, CT 06830 Gentlemen: We understand that Change Technology Partners, Inc. ("CTP" or the "Company") and Neurologix, Inc. ("Neurologix") are contemplating entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), whereby a wholly owned subsidiary of CTP ("Subcorp") shall be merged into and with Neurologix, with Neurologix surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Proposed Transaction"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, if, immediately prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction, CTP's net cash assets (as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement, "Net Cash Assets") are at least $7.5 million, and Neurologix has not raised any additional cash proceeds between the date hereof and the consummation of the Proposed Transaction through the issuance and sale of additional equity securities, then each issued and outstanding share of: (i) common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Neurologix ("Neurologix Common Stock"); and (ii) Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Neurologix ("Neurologix Series B Preferred Stock" and together with the Neurologix Common Stock, the "Neurologix Stock"), shall be converted into the right to receive shares of CTP's common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("CTP Common Stock") equal to the number of shares of Neurologix Stock multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, calculated as follows: CTP's total shares outstanding including CTP Common Stock, CTP Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per share (the "CTP Series A Preferred Stock") and CTP's in-the-money options ("CTP In-the-Money Options" and together with CTP Series A Preferred Stock and CTP Common Stock, "Total CTP Existing Shares") multiplied by two, all divided by the total shares of Neurologix Stock and the Neurologix shares issuable upon exercise of all in-the-money options (the "Neurologix In-the-Money Options" and together with Neurologix Stock, "Total Neurologix Existing Shares") (the "Exchange Ratio"). The Neurologix In-the-Money Options shall be converted into an option to purchase the number of shares of CTP Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Neurologix stock covered by such Neurologix In-the-Money Options multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. If, immediately prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction, CTP's Net Cash Assets are less than $7.5 million, or if Neurologix has raised additional cash proceeds between the date hereof and the consummation of the Proposed Transaction through the issuance and sale of additional equity securities, then the Exchange Ratio will be adjusted as follows: Total CTP Existing Shares multiplied by the quotient obtained by dividing $15.0 million plus the net cash proceeds (after all expenses incurred relating thereto) from the sale of additional equity by Neurologix, by the lesser of CTP's Net Cash Assets or $7.5 million, all divided by Total Neurologix Existing Shares. The terms and conditions of the Proposed Transaction are more fully set forth in the Merger Agreement. We further understand that concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement and as a condition to the willingness of CTP to enter into the Merger Agreement, certain holders of Neurologix Stock and Neurologix's 6% Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million and due October 2007 (the "Neurologix Note") have entered into a voting agreement with CTP, Subcorp and Neurologix, under which, among other things, they have agreed to: (i) convert shares of D-1 BNY CAPITAL MARKETS, INC. August 11, 2003 Page 2 Neurologix Stock into, and to exchange their interests in the Neurologix Note for, shares of Neurologix Stock prior to the consummation of the Proposed Transaction, (ii) execute an irrevocable written consent with respect to all of their shares of Neurologix in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement, (iii) irrevocably waive any and all rights to dissent from the merger and seek appraisal of their Neurologix Stock, and (iv) take other actions in furtherance of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "Voting Agreement"). In addition, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, CTP shall loan Neurologix the principal amount of $750,000 secured by a first priority perfected security interest in all of the assets of Neurologix (the "Loan"). You have asked for our opinion as to whether the Proposed Transaction is fair from a financial point of view to each of the Series A Preferred Stockholders (as defined below) and the Common Stockholders (as defined below). We have not been requested to opine as to, and our opinion does not in any manner address, the Company's underlying business decision to proceed with or effect the Proposed Transaction. For the purpose of this opinion, "Series A Preferred Stockholders" shall mean all holders of the CTP Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stockholders"), and "Common Stockholders" shall mean all holders of CTP Common Stock (the "Common Stockholders"). For purposes of the opinion set forth herein, we have: (i) reviewed the Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the Loan; (ii) reviewed and analyzed certain internal financial statements, including audited historical and unaudited interim statements, and other financial and operating data concerning CTP and Neurologix, as well as projections prepared by the management of Neurologix; (iii) discussed the past and current operations and financial condition as well as the prospects of CTP and Neurologix with senior executives and consultants of CTP and Neurologix; (iv) reviewed CTP's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2000 through 2002, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, its Reports on Form 8-K dated June 18, 2003, and June 30, 2003, and its Certificate of Incorporation; (v) reviewed the reported prices and trading activity of CTP Common Stock from March 28, 2000, to present; (vi) reviewed publicly available information for certain publicly-traded companies selected for comparative purposes; (vii) considered traditional valuation methodologies, including but not limited to publicly-traded companies selected for comparative purposes, recent industry merger and acquisition transactions, recent industry venture capital transactions and discounted cash flow analyses; and (viii) performed such other analyses and considered such other factors as we have deemed relevant and appropriate. In arriving at our opinion, we have assumed and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information used by us, without assuming any responsibility for independent verification of such information, and have further relied upon the assurances of management of CTP and Neurologix that they are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information inaccurate or misleading in any material respect. With respect to the financial projections, upon advice of the Company and Neurologix, we have assumed that such projections have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the future financial performance of CTP and Neurologix. We have assumed that the Proposed Transaction will be consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement without any limitations, restrictions, conditions, amendments or modifications, regulatory or D-2 BNY CAPITAL MARKETS, INC. August 11, 2003 Page 3 otherwise, that collectively would have a material adverse effect on CTP or Neurologix. Our opinion is necessarily based on economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. We do not express any opinion as to the price or range of prices at which the shares of CTP Common Stock may trade subsequent to the announcement of the Proposed Transaction or as to the price or range of prices at which the shares of CTP Common Stock may trade subsequent to the consummation of the Proposed Transaction. BNY Capital Markets, Inc. ("BNYCMI") is a nationally recognized investment banking firm and is acting as exclusive financial advisor to the Board of Directors of CTP to the extent set forth in the letter agreement between BNYCMI and the Company dated July 30, 2003 (the "Engagement Letter"), and will receive a fee for its services. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify BNYCMI for certain liabilities that may arise out of the rendering of this opinion. BNYMCI is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Company, Inc. ("BNYCo."). In the ordinary course of business, affiliates of BNYCo. may from time to time trade in the securities of CTP for the accounts of investment funds under their management and for the accounts of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. This letter is for the information of the Board of Directors of CTP and may be used in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Engagement Letter. This letter may not be used for any other purpose without our prior written consent. Based on and subject to the foregoing, BNYCMI is of the opinion on the date hereof that the Proposed Transaction is fair from a financial point of view to each of the Series A Preferred Stockholders and the Common Stockholders.

(b) Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation to be effected pursuant to sec. 251 (other than a merger effected pursuant to sec. 251(g) of this title), sec. 252, sec. 254, sec. 257, sec. 258, sec. 263 or sec. 264 of this title: (1) Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of stockholders to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation, were either (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders; and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation as provided in subsection (f) of sec. 251 of this title. (2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation pursuant to sec.sec. 251, 252, 254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of this title to accept for such stock anything except: a. Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such merger or consolidation, or depository receipts in respect thereof; b. Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than 2,000 holders; c. Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or E-1 d. Any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this paragraph. (3) In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation party to a merger effected under sec. 253 of this title is not owned by the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation. (c) Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision, the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d) and (e) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable. (d) Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows: (1) If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the record date for such meeting with respect to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) hereof that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the constituent corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of such stockholder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares. A proxy or vote against the merger or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective date of such merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of each constituent corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation of the date that the merger or consolidation has become effective; or (2) If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to sec. 228 or sec. 253 of this title, then either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger or consolidation or the surviving or resulting corporation within 10 days thereafter shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Such notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within 20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation, either (i) each such constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or consolidation or (ii) the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of E-2 determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given. (e) Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation or any stockholder who has complied with subsections (a) and (d) hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to withdraw such stockholder's demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger or consolidation. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting from the consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days after such stockholder's written request for such a statement is received by the surviving or resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) hereof, whichever is later. (f) Upon the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service of a copy thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which shall within 20 days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by the surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such a duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice shall also be given by 1 or more publications at least 1 week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving or resulting corporation. (g) At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the stockholders who have complied with this section and who have become entitled to appraisal rights. The Court may require the stockholders who have demanded an appraisal for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. (h) After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or consolidation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Court shall take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate of interest, the Court may consider all relevant factors, including the rate of interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay to borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the surviving or resulting corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior to the final determination of the stockholder entitled to an appraisal. Any stockholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting corporation pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has submitted such stockholder's certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery, if such is required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that such stockholder is not entitled to appraisal rights under this section. E-3 (i) The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court may direct. Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case of holders of uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of holders of shares represented by certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the certificates representing such stock. The Court's decree may be enforced as other decrees in the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving or resulting corporation be a corporation of this State or of any state. (j) The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application of a stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to an appraisal. (k) From and after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, no stockholder who has demanded appraisal rights as provided in subsection (d) of this section shall be entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to receive payment of dividends or other distributions on the stock (except dividends or other distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective date of the merger or consolidation); provided, however, that if no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time provided in subsection (e) of this section, or if such stockholder shall deliver to the surviving or resulting corporation a written withdrawal of such stockholder's demand for an appraisal and an acceptance of the merger or consolidation, either within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation as provided in subsection (e) of this section or thereafter with the written approval of the corporation, then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Court of Chancery shall be dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just. (l) The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which the shares of such objecting stockholders would have been converted had they assented to the merger or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of the surviving or resulting corporation.

PLEASE MARK, DATE AND SIGN YOUR NAME AS IT APPEARS ON THIS CARD AND RETURN IT IN THE ENCLOSED ENVELOPE. F-2 PART II INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred, including liabilities under the Securities Act, provided they act in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful, although in the case of proceedings brought by or on behalf of the corporation, such indemnification is limited to expenses and is not permitted if the individual is adjudged liable to the corporation (unless the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such proceeding was brought determines otherwise in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law). Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a corporation to limit or eliminate its directors' liability to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duties, other than for (i) breaches of the duty of loyalty, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, (iii) unlawful payments of dividends, stock purchases or redemptions, or (iv) transactions from which a director derives an improper personal benefit. The registrant's certificate of incorporation contains such a provision. The registrant's certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that it will indemnify each director and officer against all claims and expenses resulting from the fact that he or she was an officer, or director of the registrant. In addition, the registrant's board of directors may, at its option, indemnify any other employee. A claimant is eligible for indemnification if the claimant (i) acted in good faith and in a manner that, in the claimant's reasonable belief, was in or not opposed to the best interests of the registrant, or (ii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such. The registrant's certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain no specific provisions regarding such insurance. The registrant has obtained liability insurance covering its directors and officers for claims asserted against them or incurred by them in such capacity, including claims brought under the Securities Act. ITEM 21. EXHIBITS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES. The exhibit index is hereby incorporated by reference. ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS. (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that are incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request. (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective. (c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: that prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through the use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration II-1 form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other Items of the applicable form. (d) The registrant undertakes that every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (c) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. II-2 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this amendment to the registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Greenwich, State of Connecticut on January 8, 2004.
