Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) has decided not to declare the quarterly cash dividend on the Preferred Stock with respect to the third quarter of 2010 that would have otherwise been payable on November 1, 2010. 

Item 5.07 Submission of Matter to a Vote of Security Holders.

The previously adjourned special meeting of the holders of the Company’s 6% Exchangeable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) was held on November 1, 2010, at 1:00 p.m. The special meeting originally noticed for October 4, 2010, had been adjourned to November 1, 2010, due to a lack of quorum at the October 4th meeting, as disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 6, 2010. A quorum was not reached at the November 1, 2010 meeting either, with 505,773 shares of Preferred Stock present in person and by proxy at the meeting, representing only 41.69% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock. The meeting was not further adjourned.
