DEAR SHAREHOLDERS...

Welcome to the continuing evolution and development of CytoDyn. We have as a
company a unique and once in a lifetime opportunity to possibly impact the
HIV/AIDS problem facing the world.

Before we look to the future we have to acknowledge our past. The evolution of a
small biotech/pharma company is never easy. Evolution presents many challenges
and potential conflicts between shareholders, management, and the development of
its science. Some shareholders want immediate results, which are not usually
realistic. The easy way would have been to raise money and dilute the initial
and existing shareholders that believed in the science and the potential of our
one-of-a-kind drug, Cytolin. A path CytoDyn did not take.

We owe gratitude to Al Allen, our Chairman and founder, and his relentless
effort to protect and minimize the dilution of existing shareholders. CytoDyn
only has approximately 21 million shares outstanding, and it is our intention to
only increase outstanding shares as and when necessary. Shareholder value is and
will continue to be a very important part of our future.

As CytoDyn moves our primary drug Cytolin through the continuing process of
development and FDA approval, there will be challenges, but with challenges
there are also opportunities.

In the evolving future, CytoDyn will be adding key management and staff,
engaging additional experienced legal counsel, evaluating investment banking
relationships, updating our website, and constantly evaluating our potential
relationships with big pharma. As we move forward we will also be increasing the
exposure of our current drug Cytolin, with new public and institutional
awareness.

For shareholders looking to the future, you will also see additions to our board
of directors and the formation of a new scientific advisory board.

My focus as CytoDyn's new President and CEO is to constantly improve CytoDyn's
operating position, science, and to continue to improve and build shareholder
value.

We as a company will diligently pursue the business opportunities as presented
that will eventually benefit both shareholders and the world.

Thank you in advance for your participation in the future of CytoDyn.

Regards

/s/ Kenneth J Van Ness
