4.  Investment in ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals
 
On April 8, 2011, ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals completed its acquisition of SynthRx, Inc., in which the Company held a 19.1% interest. As a result of the transaction, the Company received approximately 126,000 shares of common stock of ADVENTRX, which it sold on October 11, 2011 for approximately $112,200.  The Company will be entitled to receive an additional 37,000 shares of common stock of ADVENTRX currently held in an escrow established in connection with the acquisition, except to the extent the shares are applied to satisfy potential indemnification obligations to ADVENTRX.  If all of the development milestones under the acquisition agreement were to be achieved, the Company also would be entitled to receive up to 2.9 million additional ADVENTRX shares. The Company's ADVENTRX shares are “restricted” securities within the meaning of the federal securities laws and are subject to certain transfer and voting restrictions under a Stockholders' Voting and Transfer Restriction Agreement. This investment is treated as an available for sale security.
