Financial Statements and Exhibits SIGNATURES INDEX TO EXHIBITS EXHIBIT 99.4 EXHIBIT 99.5 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS EXPLANATORY NOTE On March 30, 2006, Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (formerly Xcyte Therapies, Inc.) (the "Company"), filed a Form 8-K to report, among other matters, the completion of the Stock Purchase Agreement with Cyclacel Group plc, a company registered in England and Wales ("Cyclacel Group") on March 27, 2006, whereby the Company acquired from Cyclacel Group all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Cyclacel Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. In response to parts (a) and (b) of Item 9.01 of such Form 8-K, the Company stated that it would file the required financial information by amendment, as permitted by Item 9.01(a)(4) and Item 9.01(b)(2) of Form 8-K. This Form 8-K/A Amendment No.1 is being filed to provide such required financial information. ITEM 9.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS. (a) Financial statements of businesses acquired The required audited financial information for Cyclacel Limited as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, for the nine months ended December 31, 2003 and the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and the period from August 13, 1996 (inception) to December 31, 2005 is included as Exhibit 99.4 and is hereby incorporated by reference. Because the former Cyclacel Group shareholders held 79.7% of the Company's common stock immediately following the Stock Purchase, Cyclacel Group's designees to the Company's board of directors represent a majority of the Company's directors and Cyclacel Limited's senior management represented a majority of the senior management of the combined company immediately following the Stock Purchase, Cyclacel is deemed to be the acquiring company for accounting purposes. The financial statements of the Company were also previously filed on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 16, 2006 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2006. (b) Pro forma financial information The required unaudited pro forma financial information for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and the three months ended March 31, 2006 is included as Exhibit 99.5 and is hereby incorporated by reference.
