UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements
combine the historical balance sheets and statements of operations of VITEX and
Pentose giving effect to the merger using the purchase method of accounting for
a business combination and also reflects the transfer by Pentose of its
Papirine technology by Pentose to Pentose Development Corporation in June 1999.
Pentose Development Corporation is not a party to the merger agreement between
VITEX and Pentose.

     This information was derived from the audited financial statements of VITEX
for the year ended January 2, 1999 and the unaudited financial statements as of
and for the three quarters ended October 2, 1999 and from the audited financial
statements of Pentose for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the unaudited
financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
The information is only a summary and you should read it in conjunction with our
historical financial statements and related notes contained in the annual
reports and other information that we have filed with the SEC.

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the
fiscal year ended January 2, 1999 and the three quarters ended October 2, 1999
assume the merger was effected on January 1, 1998.  The unaudited pro forma
condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the merger as if it had
occurred on October 2, 1999.

     The estimated charge of $32.2 million resulting from purchased in-process
research and development costs has been reflected as a reduction of
stockholders' equity in the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of
October 2, 1999. This same charge has been excluded from the pro forma condensed
combined statement of operations for the year ended January 2, 1999 since the
charge is non-recurring and directly related to the acquisition.

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for
illustrative purposes only. The companies may have performed differently had
they always been combined. You should not rely on the pro forma condensed
combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results
that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the
future results that the combined company will experience after the merger.

                                  (Unaudited)

                   (In thousands, except per share amounts)

(A) Estimated transaction expenses of $1,385 of VITEX associated with
    acquisition of Pentose including $815 in prepaid expenses and other current
    assets in VITEX's Balance sheet as of October 2, 1999.

(B) Reflects acquisition of Pentose in exchange for an estimated 6,444 shares of
    VITEX with a fair value of $6.14 per share based on the average of the
    closing price of VITEX's common stock before and after the announcement of
    the merger agreement with Pentose, less a discount of approximately $6,300
    to reflect restrictions on the sale of 4,435 VITEX common shares issued. The
    estimated acquisition costs and preliminary purchase price allocation are
    summarized as follows assuming the acquisition had occurred on September 30,
    1999:

      Fair value of VITEX shares issued in exchange for all outstanding
       shares of Pentose...............................................  $33,279
      Fair value of VITEX stock options issued in exchange for all
       outstanding stock options of Pentose............................    2,314
      Estimated transaction expenses...................................    1,385
      Pentose liabilities assumed......................................    1,400
                                                                         -------
      Estimated acquisition costs......................................  $38,378
                                                                         =======

    The estimated acquisition costs have been allocated as follows:

      Fair value of in-process research and development costs..........  $32,227
      Fair value of intangible assets--core developed
       technology and assembled work force.............................    4,151
      Fair value of other Pentose assets...............................    2,000
                                                                         -------
                                                                         $38,378
                                                                         =======

(C) Represents the elimination of Pentose's stockholders' equity accounts and
    the recording of the issuance of 6,444 shares of VITEX common stock and
    stock options with total estimated fair value of $35,593.

(D) Includes charge of $32,227 for acquired in-process research and development
    costs. The value of the purchased in-process research and development from
    the acquisition was determined by estimating the projected net cash flows
    related to products under development, based upon the future revenues to be
    earned upon commercialization of such products. The percentage of the cash
    flow allocated to purchased in-process research and development was based
    upon the estimated percentage complete for each of the projects. These cash
    flows were discounted back to their net present value. The resulting
    projected net cash flows from such projects were based on management's
    estimates of revenues and operating profits related to such projects. No tax
    benefit has been reflected in connection with this charge in recognition of
    the uncertainty that any such tax benefits will be realized by VITEX based
    on its history of operating losses since inception.

(E) Elimination of license fees paid by VITEX to Pentose totaling $250 in both
    the year ended January 2, 1999 and the three quarters ended October 2, 1999.

(F) Elimination of research and development costs associated with Pentose's
    Papirine technology that was spun off from Pentose to Pentose Development
    Corporation in June 1999 prior to the proposed merger with VITEX.

(G) Represents the amortization of intangible assets acquired on a straight-line
    basis computed as follows:

     * Core/developed technology, totaling $3,622, amortized over 15 years.

     * Assembled work force, totaling $529, amortized over five years.



                                       5



<PAGE>

(H) The pro forma weighted average number of shares outstanding is based on the
    weighted average shares outstanding of VITEX during the period adjusted to
    give effect to 6,444 shares assumed to be issued had the merger taken place
    as of January 1, 1998.

                         PENTOSE PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization

Pentose Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the Company or Pentose), a Delaware corporation,
was incorporated on June 8, 1995. The Company is a development-stage enterprise
engaged in the development and commercialization of novel small-molecule drugs
for treatment of human vital disease and for the inactivation of viruses in
blood-derived and biological products.

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the industry including,
but not limited to, development by the Company or its competitors of new
technological innovations, uncertainty of product development and
commercialization, lack of marketing and sales history, dependence on key
personnel, protection of proprietary technology, the ability to raise additional
financing and compliance with the Food and Drug Administration government
regulations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying balance sheet as of September 30, 1999, the statements of
operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998
and for the period from inception (June 8, 1995) to September 30, 1999 are
unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. For further
information, refer to the Pentose financial statements and footnotes thereto
included on pages F-28 and F-42 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus included
in V.I. Technologies, Inc.'s (VITEX) registration statement on Form S-4 (333-
87443).

Net Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss
by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Basic and
diluted net loss per share are the same, as common stock issuable upon the
exercise of outstanding common stock options and warrants and the conversion of
redeemable convertible preferred stock would be antidilutive, since the Company
has recorded a net loss for the periods presented.

3. Pentose Development Corporation

In April 1999, Pentose Development Corporation (PDC) was incorporated as a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In June 1999, the Company transferred
its existing technology and know-how related to its Paperine program to PDC.
Subsequent to this transfer, the Company distributed the stock of PDC to its
shareholders based on their respective ownership interests. There was no
accounting related to these transfers and the carrying value of the assets
transferred was zero.

In addition, the Company and PDC have entered into a services agreement whereby
the Company will perform research and other services on behalf of PDC for a fee.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company billed PDC
approximately $275,000 for these services and has a receivable from PDC for this
amount as of September 30, 1999.
