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 and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

The Company maintains its operating cash accounts in one commercial bank.
Accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)

(b) Pro Forma Financial Information
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Consolidated Financial Statements
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements give effect
to the PolaRx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (PolaRx) acquisition by Cell
Therapeutics, Inc. (Cell Therapeutics) using the purchase method of accounting.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements do not purport to
represent what Cell Therapeutics' financial position or results of operations
would actually have been if the acquisition had in fact occurred on such date or
to project Cell Therapeutics' financial position or results of operations as of
any future date or for any future period.
For pro forma purposes:
- - Cell Therapeutics' consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 has
been combined with the PolaRx balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 as if
the acquisition had occurred on December 31, 1999;
- - Cell Therapeutics' statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1999 has been combined with PolaRx's statement of operations
for the year ended December 31, 1999.
The unaudited pro forma adjustments have been applied to the financial
information derived from the financial statements of Cell Therapeutics and
PolaRx to account for the acquisition as a purchase; accordingly, assets
acquired and liabilities assumed are reflected at their estimated fair values
which are subject to further refinement, including appraisals and other
analyses.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been prepared
based on the assumptions described in the notes thereto and includes assumptions
relating to the allocation of the consideration paid for the assets and
liabilities of PolaRx based on preliminary estimates of their fair value. In the
opinion of Cell Therapeutics, all adjustments necessary to present fairly such
unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information have been made based on
the proposed terms and structure of the acquisition.
As a result of the acquisition, Cell Therapeutics expects to record acquired
intangible assets for marketing, patents, and acquired goodwill. The unaudited
pro forma consolidated balance sheet reflects an allocation to marketing and
patents estimated to be $16.1 million and $6.6 million, respectively, and
acquired goodwill estimated to be $9.7 million.
The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only
and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position
that would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated on January 1,
1999 or December 31, 1999, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating
results of financial position.
These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial
statements and the related notes thereto of Cell Therapeutics and other
financial information pertaining to Cell Therapeutics, including "Cell
Therapeutics Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" incorporated by reference from its Form 8-K filed on
March 2, 2000, and its Forms 10-Q's filed on March 17, 1999, August 16, 1999,

1. Basis of Presentation
The following unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements
give effect to the acquisition of PolaRx using the purchase method of
accounting. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated balance sheet gives
effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on December 31, 1999. The PolaRx
acquisition occurred on January 7, 2000. The unaudited pro forma combined
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 gives
effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 1999. The
unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements do not purport to
represent what Cell Therapeutics' financial position or results of operations
would actually have been if the acquisition had in fact occurred on such date or
to project Cell Therapeutics' financial position or results of operations as of
any future date or for any future period.
2. Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Consolidated Financial Statements
(a) The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements reflect
the conversion of all of the outstanding shares of PolaRx capital stock
into shares of Cell Therapeutics common stock as a result of the
acquisition by Cell Therapeutics on January 7, 2000, which was accounted
for as a purchase transaction.
(b) The total consideration of $32.4 million consisted of Cell Therapeutics
common stock valued at $27.7 million, assumed net liabilities of $3.9
million and approximately $825,000 of transaction costs. The purchase
price will be allocated based on the fair value, to the marketing
intangible asset ($16.1 million), patents ($6.6 million), and excess of
purchase price over assets acquired ($9.7 million).
(c) The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated balance sheet includes the
adjustments necessary to give effect to the acquisition as if it had
occurred on December 31, 1999, and to reflect the allocation of the
proposed acquisition to the fair value of tangible and intangible assets
acquired. Also included are the transaction costs , including payments to
attorneys and other related costs. Approximate adjustments included in the
unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet are summarized as follows:
(i) Elimination of PolaRx shareholders' deficit of $3,886,921 to reflect
Cell Therapeutics assumption of net liabilities of PolaRx;
(ii) Marketing intangible asset acquired by Cell Therapeutics,
$16,100,000, three-year remaining life;
(iii) APL refractory patent acquired by Cell Therapeutics, $2,018,000,
five-year remaining life;
(iv) Multiple myeloma application patent acquired by Cell Therapeutics,
$4,594,000, five-year remaining life;
(v) Goodwill acquired by Cell Therapeutics of $9,670,000, five-year
remaining life;
(vi) 5,000,000 shares of Cell Therapeutics common stock, no par value,
valued at $27,670,000. The value of Cell Therapeutics common stock is
equal to the product of 2,000,000 shares multiplied by Cell
Therapeutics' market price per share of $6.08 at the date of the
transaction and 3,000,000 shares multiplied by the market price per
share at the date of the transaction discounted by 15% for the lack
of marketability inherent in this equity, as determined by an
independent valuation. 2,000,000 million shares were issued at
closing and 3,000,000 shares will be issued at the sooner of January
7, 2005 or approval of a New Drug Application by the FDA of PolaRx's
anti-cancer compound, Arsenic TriOxide. Issuance of 2,000,000 of the
total shares is subject to shareholder approval, and as such, the
value of such shares is currently reflected as a liability (if
issuance of the shares is not approved by the shareholders, the
Company is required to satisfy the liability via cash). Valuation of
these shares will finalized upon receipt
<PAGE>
of shareholder approval. In addition, Cell Therapeutics is required
to make contingent payments of up to $9,000,000 and future royalties
if certain milestones and target net sales specified in the merger
agreement are attained.
(vii) Transaction costs incurred, related to finders fee, legal and
accounting costs, of $825,000.
(d) The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated statement of operations
includes the adjustments necessary to give effect to the acquisition as if
it had occurred on January 1, 1999, and to reflect the amortization of the
fair value of intangible assets acquired.
(viii) To record amortization of $8,623,129 related to acquired marketing,
patents and goodwill.
3. Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Consolidated Net Loss Per Share
The pro forma combined share and net loss per common share data was prepared
assuming the issuance of 2,000,000 shares of Cell Therapeutics common stock on
January 1, 1999.
4. Conforming and Reclassification Adjustments
There were no material adjustments required to conform the accounting policies
of Cell Therapeutics and PolaRx. Certain amounts have been reclassified to
conform to Cell Therapeutics financial statement presentation. There have been
no significant intercompany transactions.
