Company Statement

GlobalMed Technologies Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on April 9th, 2002 for the purpose of

manufacturing and distributing a patented state of the art Ultraviolet Light Blood Irradiation System for the

treatment of HIV/AIDS.

After two decades of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, an estimated eight out of nine people with the detectable HIV virus

have developed resistance to at least one drug in the HIV/AIDS medicine cabinet, i.e. the “retrovirals”, and from

20 to 60% of infected patients have exhausted drugs in at least two of the three classes of HIV medicines currently

in use. (Annex # 1)

UNAIDS and CNN Special World Health, both report approximately 36,000,000 HIV afflicted people worldwide

(See Annex # 2) and although hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent

in search of a cure, no effective solution has been found. Retroviral

medications have side effects so severe that many HIV/AIDS patients

refuse to take the medication. (Annex # 3)

The HIV virus in a thirty six hour period (36 hours) can replicate itself approximately 800 million times. Of these

copies 75% will find target CD4 cells and each one will in a thirty six hour period produce 800 million more

copies. After 7 to 10 years, the person’s infected immune system will be near total collapse. Add to this the

mutations which develop during replication and we can understand why the development of a vaccine is not

possible. (Annex # 4)

The implications are dire: A virus that once seemed on the verge of

containment is beyond the reach of medications that promised to

transform HIV/AIDS into a chronic but treatable condition. In the

last 4 years nearly 12 million new cases of AIDS were reported. (See Annex # 5)

GlobalMed Technologies has developed an effective treatment modality for HIV/AIDS and other blood-

borne diseases, utilizing ultraviolet irradiation, which is safe, efficient, and has minimal side effects. In

Government Approved Clinical Trials performed in 2004 in the Dominican Republic, viral load counts

in 36 subjects were reduced by 84-99% within 90 days. CD4 cell counts remained stable and life

expectancy increased tenfold. (Annex # 6)

The current U.S. costs to treat an HIV/AIDS patient, with retroviral medication, ranges from $12,000 to $48,000

per year. Add to this the costs of opportunistic infection medications, hospitalization, diagnostic testing, laboratory

tests, infusion therapy, home care therapy, plus all the administration costs and the yearly total for a chronic carrier

is approximately $200,000 per year. (Annex # 7)

Besides the efficiency of the GMT Process there is an added benefit, we can Decrease Costs Across the Board by

75% in the first year, 80% in the second year and 90% in the third year. We can save insurance companies billions

in revenue per year and offer a viable solution to the HIV/AIDS Pandemic.

Background Orientation The father of Phototherapy is Dr. Niels Finsen from Denmark, and who treated 300 patients who

suffered from Lupus Vulgari. He obtained a 100% curative rate, and thereby was awarded the

Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1903. (See Annex # 8).

America would not enter this field of medicine until the 1920’s and 1930’s, when a

Scientist by the name of Dr. Emmet Knott, from Seattle (See Annex 9) sought to harness

the known bactericidal property of ultraviolet rays in order to treat infectious diseases

of the blood. Knott built an apparatus known as the “Knott Irradiator” that would

remove a small amount of blood from the body through an IV tube, citrate it to avoid

coagulation, expose it in a small chamber to calibrated UV irradiation, and then infuse

it back into the body through the same IV tube.

The FDA has approved only one Photopheresis machine in the united states, that of a company called

THERAKOS, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. Dr. Eldeson of THERAKOS developed a

Extracorporeal Photopheresis Blood Irradiator. They were granted preliminary certification

to performed clinical trial studies with HIV and Graft Host Diseases. (Annex # 10, 11).

Studies which were performed by Columbia University’s Photopheresis Unit in Morristown NY

demonstrated that 4 of 7 patients (57%) with HIV/AIDS became SERO NEGATIVE after 5 to

19 treatments and remained so for 14 to 16 months after the termination of the study. In an

extended trial several years later 17 of 19 patients became SERO NEGATIVE. (Annex # 12, 13)

This treatment modality with its long existence and proven record throughout the US and Europe could be a

beneficial tool in modern medicine. If applied properly, Hemoirradiation is an answer to today’s world pandemics

Dr. Fernandez GMT’s Founder, designed “THE PCI-1” Hemoirradiator,

along with the“GMT-Disposable Kit” and the GMT-Cuvette, which acts

as the irradiation chamber during treatment.

It has taken Dr. Fernandez 12 years of research, development and testing to establish the correct intensity, time of

exposure volume, flow rate, and process of irradiation. When applied within standards it

guarantees a precise dosage of UV Irradiation that only destroys the invading organisms and

leaves unharmed the surrounding tissues, blood and serous components.

Side effects are minimal and transitory. (See Annex #14)

The GMT-PCI-1; 1 Measures and displays the precise time of irradiation.

2 Measure, vary and display the intensity of the beam of light.

3 Adjust and display the precise amount of UV dosage.

4 Allow for the use and variance of a narrow or wide wave band of

light.

5 Measure and display the precise flow rate for any given Volume of

Blood.

6 Computer Interfaced with Print capabilities.

7 Proprietary Software which generates detailed reports of all data

acquired.

8 Measures the amount and flow of blood irradiated.

9 Barcode Scanneing, assures single use of GMT-Kit and Cuvette.

10 Patient Prescription Memory Chip (PPMC).

11 PPMC stores all patient treatment sessions and dosages.

12 Controls the UV energy needed for each specific blood borne virus, fungus or bacteria.

13 Internet Interfaced for downloading of clinical trials data.

The GMT-PCI-1 design will include a component that will deactivate all electronics

within the machine if tampered with in any manner whatsoever. This design and

safeguard feature will assist to prevent the GMT-PCI-1 from being reproduced or utilized

for other purposes.

To date the company has raised three million dollars in the development and patenting of its products and

process. The company requires the amount of $4 to $5 million dollars to

enable it to reach its next phase in its development, which

is, Phase Two Controlled Clinical Trials with 200

HIV/AIDS subjects. We are currently approved to perform

said trials in the country of Colombia. We have

Government, Academic Sponsorship from two universities,

Laboratories, and the Government Public Hospital La Maria to carry out the trials.

POSSIBLE SCENARIO TO GENERATE FUNDS

WHILE CLINICAL STUDY IS IN PROGRESS.

GlobalMed has established relationships with various insurance companies,

government institutes and private entities which have demonstrated an interest to

venture into an association with the company. GMT expects with the correct lobbying

and marketing strategies we can be offering our services to the different health clinics,

hospitals and institutes which treat HIV/AIDS patients. Currently in Colombia and most

of Latin American, people with HIV/AIDS have demonstrated a resistance rate to

retroviral medication between 60 to 85% This has burden the already strain economies in

these countries. If someone could offer an effective treatment and lower costs at the same

time, they would capture a niche in this hemispheres health market.

The Company anticipates in its strategies that it can commence selling GMT Kits and treatments to health

clinics and hospitals while we conduct our clinical trials. By

performing the appropriate lobbying we can convince the

insurance companies in Colombia to pay for our treatments

to patients who are resistant to the medications or those

which are intolerant, due to their side effects. The percentage of people that fall into this category is 43% for

the intolerants and 85% of those under government assistance. The total amount of HIV/AIDS cases in

Colombia range between 190,000 to 300,000. Of these approximately 85,000 are being treated with

retrovirals, of which 50% or 42.500 are either intolerant or resistant to the meds. (Annex # 15)

These people have no hope since nothing works for them, but the government according to the Law 100 of the

Health Code must provide medical attention and care. The amount of funds needed to

keep these people alive is draining the governments throughout all of Latin America.

By providing hope to a market which no pharmaceutical can get to and by lowering

cost to the insurance companies and the government, our entry is but assured. GMT

has done most of the legwork in this area and with the proper funding, lobbying and

marketing we can expect to generate the funds below.

The following table demonstrates the potential to generate income from the sales of kits in treatments

performed at various health centers while clinical trials are in progress.

25,000 100,000 $5,000,000 $60,000,000

Committing to perform the clinical trials demonstrates a good will act on our behalf and opens the door for a

profitable future. Now that Johnson and Johnson has commencement their clinical trials with irradiations in

HIV/AIDS patients, the possibilities are endless. By going to South America and other countries first we

guarantee a rapid approval. When we look at it from a business and benefit side, 99% of our market potential

is outside the US, and we don’t need to perform clinical trials in the US to be approved worldwide. (Annex # 16)

The process of approval in the US by the FDA is cumbersome and moves at a snail’s pace, something J&J has

found out the hard way. Their first clinical pilot study was performed in 1990 at Colombia University

Department of Photopheresis in Morristown New Jersey. They proved beyond a shadow of doubt that this

process works by taking 4 subjects to sero negative. (Annex # 17)

In 1992 they publish their second study results and 17 of 19 subjects reached sero negative. After these two

studies were completed nothing is done by J&J in the field of HIV and Photopheresis until 2006, when Merck

Sharpe and Dome announced that they were out of the vaccine race for HIV. They commented on the

mutability of the HIV virus and how that made it impossible to develop a vaccine that could accommodate the

genetically mutating changes of the virus and how fast it did so. (Annex # 18)

This has opened the door for GMT and its process. We would be the first company to perform Controlled

Clinical Trials in Various countries and certify a process of treatment which fights virus, bacteria’s, fungus

and parasites effectively and viably.

The next stage is Phase II Clinical Trials. During the ramp up phase and during the first six months of the

clinical trials we will be marketing and lobbying all interested parties and other academics and government

health officials to the benefits of this treatment. By the sixth month of clinical trials we should have acquired

the first 500 to 1,000 patient in various clinics. These revenues would offset the revenues needed in the

clinical trials. If we reach 5,000 patients we can literally pay for the development of not only Phase II but

most of Phase III trials. We welcome any and all inquiries and we are prepared to attend any meeting where

we may demonstrate the functionality of the PCI-1 and the GMT-Kit.
