                    BIOTRANSPLANT INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY
                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.   OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    BioTransplant Incorporated (the "Company") was incorporated on March 20,
1990. The Company is developing pharmaceutical products and systems to enable
the body's immune system to better tolerate the transplantation of foreign
cells, tissues and organs. Based on BioTransplant's proprietary technology, both
alone and in collaboration with others, BioTransplant is seeking to develop a
portfolio of products designed to improve therapies associated with organ and
bone marrow transplantation as well as to improve the treatment of cancer,
autoimmune disease and blood disorders.

    The Company is in the development stage and is devoting substantially all of
its efforts toward product research and development and raising capital. The
Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other development
stage companies, including risks related to: its dependence on key individuals
and collaborative research partners, competition from substitute products and
larger companies, its ability to develop and market commercially usable products
and obtain regulatory approval for its products under development, and its
ability to obtain the substantial additional financing necessary to adequately
fund the development of its products.

    The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $11.7 million and $2.3
million for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the quarter ended March 31,
2001, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $71.1
million as of March 31, 2001. The Company has funded these losses principally
through equity financing. Additionally, the Company has entered into an
agreement to purchase Eligix, Inc. (See Note 9). In June 2001, the Company
sold 3,022,457 shares of common stock for $6.30 per share resulting in net
proceeds to the Company of approximately $17.9 million. Management believes
that these proceeds, along with existing resources, are sufficient to fund
operations through the second quarter of 2002.

    The interim financial statements herein have been prepared by the Company,
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and include, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
representation of interim period results. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. The results for the interim periods
presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
fiscal year or any future period. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, as filed with the SEC.

2.   CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS

    Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with original
maturities of ninety days or less from the date of purchase. Short-term
investments consist primarily of corporate notes and securities issued by the
United States Treasury or other United States government agencies with original
maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than
one year. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", the
Company's investments are classified as held-to-maturity and are stated at
amortized cost, which approximates fair market value.

    The Company held the following cash equivalents and short-term investments
at December 31, 2000 and March 31, 2001:




                                                                        December 31,            March 31,
                                                                            2000                  2001
                                                                        ------------           -----------

                                                                        -----------            -----------
           Short-term Investments:
             Corporate Bonds (average maturity of 2
               months at December 31, 2000)                               1,897,640                     --
             Commercial Paper (average maturity
               of 1 month at December 31, 2000)                           1,493,928                     --
                                                                        -----------            -----------
           Total cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments   $14,872,865            $10,273,230
                                                                        ===========            ===========


    In order to provide its consent to the Eligix acquisition (see Note 9), a
bank has required the Company to secure the outstanding balance on a term
note (see Note 6) with cash funds until the earlier of the date the loan is
paid off or the Company raises additional funds. The Company transferred
$550,000 into a restricted cash account during April 2001 in order to meet
this requirement.

3.   NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

    Net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the periods presented, in accordance with SFAS No.
128, "Earnings Per Share". Diluted net loss per common share is the same as
basic net loss per common share as the inclusion of common stock issuable
pursuant to options and warrants would be antidilutive. Antidilutive securities
not included consist of 381,364 common shares issuable pursuant to common stock
options and 204,097 common shares issuable pursuant to common stock warrants.

4.   IMMERGE BIOTHERAPEUTICS, INC.

    In September 2000, the Company and Novartis entered into an agreement to
combine their respective expertise in the field of xenotransplantation into a
newly-formed, independently-run company named Immerge BioTherapeutics AG
("Immerge"). Immerge began operations in January 2001. In return for
contributing its technology and an aggregate of $30 million in funding over
three years beginning January 1, 2001, Novartis obtained a 67% ownership
share of Immerge and the exclusive worldwide, royalty-bearing rights to the
development and commercialization of any xenotransplantation products
resulting from Immerge's research. In return for contributing its technology,
BioTransplant obtained a 33% share of Immerge and will receive royalty
payments from Novartis sales of xenotransplantation products, if any.

                    BIOTRANSPLANT INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY
                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

         NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
                                   (UNAUDITED)

   In December 2000, Immerge formed a wholly-owned Delaware operating
subsidiary, Immerge BioTherapeutics, Inc. Effective January 1, 2001,
BioTransplant entered into a contract research agreement with the Delaware
subsidiary, under which BioTransplant has committed approximately 20 full-time
employees to perform specified research activities exclusively for Immerge and
has agreed to provide administrative services and support at agreed upon rates.
Amounts due BioTransplant under this agreement are being recorded as offsets to
the relevant BioTransplant expenses incurred. For the three months ended March
31, 2001, BioTransplant has recorded offsets to its expenses of approximately
$1.5 million for research and development services and approximately $244,000
for general and administrative services and support provided under the
agreement. Of this amount, approximately $150,000 is included as accounts
receivable from Immerge at March 31, 2001.

5.   REVENUE RECOGNITION

    Substantially all of the Company's license and research and development
revenues were derived from three collaborative research arrangements. Annual
research and development payments were recognized on a straight-line basis over
the period of the contract, which approximates when work is performed and costs
are incurred. License fee revenue represents technology transfer fees received
for rights to certain technology of the Company. Prior to the adoption of SEC
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 101") during 2000,
the Company recorded license fees as revenue when all obligations as defined in
the individual arrangements are fulfilled by the Company and there is no risk of
refund. Research and development expenses in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations include funded and unfunded expenses.

    SAB 101 requires companies to recognize certain upfront non-refundable fees
and milestone payments over the life of the related alliance when such fees are
received in conjunction with alliances which have multiple elements. The Company
adopted this new accounting principle through a cumulative charge to the
statement of operations, in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion
(APB) No. 20, "Accounting Changes", no later than the fourth quarter of 2000,
effective January 1, 2000. The adoption of this statement, consisting of the
cumulative effect of the accounting change and the current year effect, did not
have a material impact on the Company's financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2000 or the quarter ended March 31, 2001.

6.   TERM NOTE

    In September 1997, the Company entered into a term note with a bank,
whereby the Company could borrow up to $500,000 for certain equipment and
fixtures during a specified drawdown period, after which time the outstanding
balance will become payable in 36 equal monthly principal installments plus
interest. During 1999, the Company amended the term note to extend the
drawdown period and increase its availability to $1.0 million under the same
conditions of the original term note. Borrowings under the term note bear
annual floating interest at the bank's Prime Rate (8% at March 31, 2001)
during the drawdown period with an option to convert during the repayment
period to an annual fixed rate at the three-month London Interbank Offered
Rate ("LIBOR") (5.06% at March 31, 2001) plus 2.25%. Borrowings under the
term note are secured by equipment and fixtures purchased using the proceeds
of the note. There were $428,000 in borrowings outstanding under this term
note at March 31, 2001. The Company is required to maintain certain financial
covenants under the agreement. As of March 31, 2001, the Company is in
compliance with these covenants. In order to provide its consent to the
Eligix acquisition (see Note 9), the bank has required the Company to secure
the outstanding balance on the note as well as an amount equal to the total
credit available to the Company through corporate credit cards, with cash
funds until the loan is paid off or the Company raises additional funds. The
Company transferred $550,000 into a restricted cash account during April 2001
in order to meet this requirement.

7.   SEGMENT REPORTING

    The Company applies SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131") which establishes standards for
reporting information about operating segments. In accordance with SFAS 131, the
Company believes that it operates in one operating segment.

8.   COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

    SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" establishes standards for
reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss and its components
(revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. The Company's comprehensive loss equals its net loss for
all periods presented.

9.  PENDING ACQUISITION

    On December 8, 2000, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire Eligix, Inc. through a reverse triangular merger. Upon consummation of
the merger, Eligix will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Under
the terms of the merger, the Company will issue up to 5,610,000 shares of common
stock in exchange for the fully diluted common stock of Eligix and 990,000
shares of common stock to members of Eligix management over a one-year period.
The Company will account for the merger as a purchase of Eligix. The merger was
approved by both company's Boards of Directors and shareholders and is expected
to close in the second quarter of 2001. Based upon the Company's average trading
price for the period from two days before to two days after the date the merger
was announced, December 11, 2000, of $8.3565, the transaction is valued at
approximately $55,000,000. Additionally, the Company anticipates the closing
costs of the merger to total approximately $3.7 million.

      If the merger agreement is terminated by either party as a result of the
other party's failure to perform or comply in all material respects with the
agreements and covenants under the merger agreement, the nonterminating party
will pay the terminating party $2.0 million.

    Additionally, the Company has entered into a promissory note with Eligix
whereby Eligix may borrow up to $2.0 million to fund operations through the
closing date of the merger. The loan bears interest at the prime rate. Upon
consummation of the merger, the loan will be forgiven, provided that if the
merger does not close on or before June 30, 2001, the note will become
immediately due and payable in full. As of March 31, 2001, Eligix has borrowed
the full $2.0 million available under this promissory note.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

    On June 8, 2001, the Company sold 3,022,457 shares of common stock at
$6.30 per share resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately
$17.9 million.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements.
For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of
historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without
limiting the foregoing, the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans,"
"expects," "intends," and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors that
could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those
indicated by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, without
limitation, those set forth below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q and in the Section titled "Business - Risk Factors That May Affect
Results" in Amendment No. 2 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for
the year ended December 31, 2000, as filed with the SEC, which Section is
incorporated herein by reference.

OVERVIEW

    Since commencement of operations in 1990, BioTransplant has been engaged
primarily in the research and development of pharmaceutical products and systems
to enable the body's immune system to better tolerate the transplantation of
foreign cells, tissues and organs. The major sources of BioTransplant's working
capital have been the proceeds from sales of equity securities, sponsored
research funding and license fees, capital lease financings and borrowings under
a term loan. BioTransplant has not generated any revenues from the sale of
products to date, and does not expect to receive any product revenues for
several years, if ever. BioTransplant will be required to conduct significant
additional research, development, testing and regulatory compliance activities
that, together with general and administrative expenses, are expected to result
in significant and increasing operating losses for at least the next several
years.

    From 1993 through October 2000, BioTransplant was a party to two
collaboration agreements with Novartis to research, develop and commercialize
xenotransplantation products. During the collaboration, BioTransplant received
an aggregate of $33.5 million in research funding and $16.5 million in license
fees and milestone payments from Novartis. In September 2000, BioTransplant
entered into an arrangement with Novartis to combine their respective expertise
in the field of xenotransplantation into a newly-formed, independently-run Swiss
company, Immerge BioTherapeutics AG, which began operations in January 2001, and
terminated their prior collaborations in xenotransplantation.

    Novartis has committed to provide an aggregate of $30.0 million in research
funding over three years to the joint venture. Both BioTransplant and Novartis
have exclusively licensed to the joint venture patent rights and technology in
the field of xenotransplantation. The joint venture has granted to Novartis an
exclusive, worldwide royalty-bearing license to develop and commercialize any
xenotransplantation products resulting from the joint venture's research.
BioTransplant will receive royalties from the sale of xenotransplantation
products by Novartis, if any.

    In December 2000, Immerge BioTherapeutics AG formed a wholly-owned Delaware
subsidiary, Immerge BioTherapeutics, Inc. BioTransplant has entered into a
contract research agreement with the Delaware subsidiary, under which
BioTransplant will commit approximately 20 full-time employees to perform
research and will provide administrative services, at rates specified in the
agreement.

    Novartis holds 67% of the shares of the joint venture and BioTransplant
holds the remaining 33%. All income, gain, profit or loss of the joint venture
will be allocated to BioTransplant and Novartis pro rata based upon their
respective equity ownership of the joint venture in effect in the period in
which these items accrue. Initially, the board of directors of Immerge
BioTherapeutics, Inc. will consist of four directors: one selected by
BioTransplant, one selected by Novartis and two additional directors, one each
designated by BioTransplant and Novartis, who are experts in the field of
xenotransplantation. Immerge BioTherapeutics AG has agreed not to undertake, or
permit its subsidiaries to undertake, specified fundamental corporate actions
without the consent of both shareholders.

    In October 1995, BioTransplant and MedImmune entered into a collaborative
research agreement for the development of products to treat and prevent organ
rejection. MedImmune paid BioTransplant a $2.0 million license fee at the time
of execution of the agreement, and agreed to fund and assume responsibility for
clinical testing and commercialization of the BTI-322 monoclonal antibody and
other related products. MedImmune has provided $2.0 million of non-refundable
research support and has agreed to make milestone payments which could total up
to an additional $11.0 million. Any milestone payments which are received are
repayable from royalties on the BTI-322 monoclonal antibody and other related
products.

    On December 8, 2000, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire Eligix, Inc. through a reverse triangular merger. Upon consummation of
the merger, Eligix will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Under
the terms of the merger, the Company will issue up to 5,610,000 shares of common
stock in exchange for the fully diluted common stock of Eligix and 990,000
shares of common stock to members of Eligix management over a one-year period.
The Company will account for the merger as a purchase of Eligix. The merger was
approved by both company's Boards of Directors and shareholders and is expected
to close in the second quarter of 2001.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND 2000

    There were no revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to
$1.5 million of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This
decrease in revenue was due to the termination of the Novartis collaborative
research agreement which provided $1.5 million in funding for the three months
ended March 31, 2000. As discussed more fully in Note 4 of the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, reimbursements from and charges to
Immerge BioTherapeutics, Inc. are being recorded as offsets to the relevant
BioTransplant expense category beginning in the first quarter of 2001.

    Research and development expenses decreased to $2.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 from $3.7 million for the three months ended March
31, 2000. This decrease was due to the reimbursement of personnel and related
support costs for approximately 20 research employees dedicated to Immerge and
decreased levels of external research support in 2001.

    General and administrative expenses decreased to $482,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 compared to $611,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2000. This decrease was due to the reimbursement of general and
administrative services and support provided to Immerge in 2001.

    Interest income decreased to $170,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2001 from $329,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease was
due primarily to lower cash balances available for investment purposes in 2001.

    As a result of the above factors, the Company generated a net loss for the
three months ended March 31, 2001 of $2.3 million, or $0.19 per share, compared
to a net loss of $2.5 million, or $0.23 per share for the three months ended
March 31, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Since its inception, the Company's operations have been funded principally
through the net proceeds of an aggregate of $81.9 million from sales of equity
securities. The Company has also received $50.0 million from research and
development and collaboration agreements with Novartis, $4.0 million from an
alliance agreement with MedImmune and $2.9 million in equipment financing. The
proceeds of the sales of equity securities, equipment financing, and cash
generated from the corporate collaborations with Novartis and MedImmune have
been used to fund operating losses of approximately $71.1 million and the
investment of approximately $5.4 million in equipment and leasehold improvements
through March 31, 2001. During 1999, the Company extended and increased its term
note with a bank from $500,000 to $1.0 million for certain equipment and
fixtures borrowing. There were $428,000 in borrowings outstanding under this
term note at March 31, 2001. In order to provide its consent to the Eligix
acquisition, the bank has required the Company to secure the outstanding balance
on the note, as well as an amount equal to the total credit available to the
Company through corporate credit cards,


                                       11



with cash funds until the loan is paid off or the Company raises additional
funds. The Company transferred $550,000 into a restricted cash account during
April 2001 in order to meet this requirement. The Company had no significant
commitments as of March 31, 2001 for capital expenditures.

    The Company has entered into a promissory note with Eligix whereby Eligix
may borrow up to $2.0 million to fund operations through the closing date of the
merger. The loan bears interest at the prime rate. Upon consummation of the
merger, the loan will be forgiven, provided that if the merger does not close on
or before June 30, 2001, the note will become immediately due and payable in
full. As of March 31, 2001, Eligix has borrowed the full $2.0 million available
under this promissory note.


    On June 8, 2001, the Company issued and sold to a group of investors an
aggregate of 3,022,457 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of
$6.30 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $17.9 million.


    The Company has entered into sponsored research and consulting agreements
with certain hospitals, academic institutions and consultants, requiring
periodic payments by the Company. Aggregate minimum funding obligations under
these agreements, which include certain cancellation provisions, total
approximately $4.9 million, which includes approximately $3.4 million in 2001.

    The Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of
$10.3 million as of March 31, 2001 as compared to $14.9 million as of December
31, 2000.

    BioTransplant anticipates that its existing cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments and the $17.9 million of funds it received in the June
2001 private equity financing will be sufficient to fund its operating and
capital requirements as currently planned through the second quarter of 2002.
BioTransplant will need to raise substantial additional funds in the near
term, and may seek to raise these funds through additional financings,
including public or private equity offerings, collaborative arrangements with
corporate partners or a combination of any of the foregoing. There can be no
assurance that funds will be available on terms acceptable to BioTransplant,
if at all. If adequate funds are not available, BioTransplant may be required
to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its product development
programs or to license to others the right to commercialize products or
technologies that BioTransplant would otherwise seek to develop and
commercialize itself, any of which would have a material and adverse effect
on BioTransplant.




    BioTransplant's cash requirements may vary materially from those now
planned. Factors that may affect this variability include, without limitation:

    -   the progress of BioTransplant's research and development programs;

    -   the scope and results of preclinical and clinical testing;

    -   changes in existing and potential relationships with corporate
        collaborators;

    -   the time and cost in obtaining regulatory approvals;

    -   the costs involved in obtaining and enforcing patents, proprietary
        rights and any necessary licenses;

    -   the ability of BioTransplant to establish development and
        commercialization capacities or relationships; and

    -   the costs of manufacturing.

    BioTransplant expects to incur substantial additional costs, including costs
related to research and development activities, preclinical studies, clinical
trials, obtaining regulatory approvals, manufacturing and the expansion of its
facilities.
