AMGEN INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 1999 1. Summary of significant accounting policies Business Amgen Inc. ("Amgen" or the "Company") is a global biotechnology company that discovers, develops, manufactures and markets human therapeutics based on advances in cellular and molecular biology. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as well as affiliated companies for which the Company has a controlling financial interest and exercises control over their operations ("majority controlled affiliates"). All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in affiliated companies which are 50% or less owned and where the Company exercises significant influence over operations are accounted for using the equity method. All other equity investments are accounted for under the cost method. The caption "Loss of affiliates, net" includes Amgen's equity in the operating results of affiliated companies and the minority interest others hold in the operating results of Amgen's majority controlled affiliates. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined in a manner which approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories are shown net of applicable reserves and allowances. Inventories consist of the following (in millions): June 30, December 31, 1999 1998 ----------------- ----------------- Raw materials $ 23.5 $ 18.1 Work in process 50.7 49.1 Finished goods 47.6 43.6 ----------------- ----------------- $121.8 $110.8 ================= ================= 7
Product sales Product sales primarily consist of sales from EPOGEN(R) (Epoetin alfa) and NEUPOGEN(R) (Filgrastim). The Company has the exclusive right to sell Epoetin alfa for dialysis, diagnostics and all non-human uses in the United States. The Company sells Epoetin alfa under the brand name EPOGEN(R). Amgen has granted to Ortho Pharmaceutical Corporation (which has assigned its rights under the product license agreement to Ortho Biotech, Inc.), a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson ("Johnson & Johnson"), a license relating to Epoetin alfa for sales in the United States for all human uses except dialysis and diagnostics. Pursuant to this license, Amgen does not recognize product sales it makes into the exclusive market of Johnson & Johnson and does recognize the product sales made by Johnson & Johnson into Amgen's exclusive market. Sales in Amgen's exclusive market and adjustments thereto are derived from Company shipments and from third-party data on shipments to end users and their usage (see Note 6, "Contingencies - Johnson & Johnson arbitrations"). Sales of the Company's other products are recognized when shipped. Foreign currency transactions The Company has a program to manage foreign currency risk. As part of this program, it has purchased foreign currency option and forward contracts to hedge against possible reductions in values of certain anticipated foreign currency cash flows generally over the next 12 months, primarily resulting from its sales in Europe. At June 30, 1999, the Company had option and forward contracts to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars of $57.7 million and $13.1 million, respectively, all having maturities of six months or less. The option contracts, which have only nominal intrinsic value at the time of purchase, are designated as effective hedges of anticipated foreign currency transactions for financial reporting purposes and accordingly, the net gains on such contracts are deferred and recognized in the same period as the hedged transactions. The forward contracts do not qualify as hedges for financial reporting purposes and accordingly, are marked-to-market. Net gains on option contracts (including option contracts for hedged transactions whose occurrence are no longer probable) and changes in market values of forward contracts are reflected in "Interest and other income". The deferred premiums on option contracts and fair values of forward contracts are included in "Other current assets". The Company has additional foreign currency forward contracts to hedge exposures to foreign currency fluctuations of certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. At June 30, 1999, the Company had forward contracts to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars of $23.5 million, all having maturities of less than six months. These contracts are designated as effective hedges and accordingly, gains and losses on these forward contracts are recognized in the same period the offsetting gains and losses of hedged assets and liabilities are realized and recognized. The fair values of the forward contracts are included in the corresponding captions of the hedged assets and liabilities. Gains 8
and losses on forward contracts, to the extent they differ in amount from the hedged assets and liabilities, are included in "Interest and other income". In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The date required for adoption of this statement has been delayed until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Because of the Company's minimal use of derivatives, management anticipates that the adoption of this new statement will not have a significant effect on earnings or the financial position of the Company. Employee stock option and stock purchase plans The Company's employee stock option and stock purchase plans are accounted for under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares are outstanding options under the Company's employee stock option plans which are included under the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted earnings per share (in millions, except per share information): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 1999 1998 1999 1998 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share - net income $267.6 $216.3 $514.8 $403.6 ============== ============== ============== ============== Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted-average shares 510.5 507.9 511.2 510.2 Effect of dilutive securities - employee stock options 26.4 17.1 27.5 16.2 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Denominator for diluted earnings per share - adjusted weighted- average shares 536.9 525.0 538.7 526.4 ============== ============== ============== ============== Basic earnings per share $ 0.52 $ 0.43 $ 1.01 $ 0.79 Diluted earnings per share $ 0.50 $ 0.41 $ 0.96 $ 0.77 9
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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Basis of presentation The financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals, unless otherwise indicated) which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for these periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year. Reclassification Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 2. Debt As of June 30, 1999, the Company had $223 million of unsecured debt securities outstanding. These unsecured debt securities consisted of: 1) $100 million of debt securities that bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.5% and mature in 2007 that were issued in December 1997 under a $500 million debt shelf registration (the "Shelf"), 2) $100 million of debt securities that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8.1% and mature in 2097, and 3) $23 million of debt securities that bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.2% and mature in 2003. Under the Shelf, all of the remaining $400 million of debt securities available for issuance may be offered under the Company's medium term note program from time to time with terms to be determined by market conditions. The Company has a commercial paper program which provides for unsecured short-term borrowings up to an aggregate of $200 million. As of June 30, 1999, commercial paper with a face amount of $100 million was outstanding. These borrowings had maturities of less than three months and had effective interest rates averaging 5.1%. The Company also has an unsecured $150 million credit facility that expires on May 28, 2003. As of June 30, 1999, no amounts were outstanding under this line of credit. 10
3. Income taxes The provision for income taxes consists of the following (in millions): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 1999 1998 1999 1998 -------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- Federal (including U.S. possessions) $105.9 $86.6 $196.6 $161.5 State 8.9 6.1 16.7 11.5 -------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- $114.8 $92.7 $213.3 $173.0 ============== ============= ============== ============== The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 was 30.0% and 29.3%, respectively, compared with 30.0% for each of the same periods last year. 4. Stockholders' equity During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company repurchased 7 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $470.7 million under its common stock repurchase program. In October 1998, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $1 billion of common stock through December 31, 1999. At June 30, 1999, $329.3 million of this authorization remained. Stock repurchased under the program is retired. On May 4, 1999, the Company's stockholders approved an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock from 750,000,000 to 1,500,000,000. 5. Comprehensive income During the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, total comprehensive income was $260.7 million and $495.4 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, total comprehensive income was $208.1 million and $392.4 million, respectively. The Company's other comprehensive income/loss is comprised of unrealized gains and losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation adjustments. 6. Contingencies Johnson & Johnson arbitrations In September 1985, the Company granted Johnson & Johnson's affiliate, Ortho Pharmaceutical Corporation, a license relating to certain patented technology and know-how of the Company to sell a genetically engineered form of recombinant human erythropoietin, called Epoetin alfa, throughout the United States for all human uses except dialysis and diagnostics. A number of disputes have arisen 11
between Amgen and Johnson & Johnson as to their respective rights and obligations under the various agreements between them, including the agreement granting the license (the "License Agreement"). A dispute between Amgen and Johnson & Johnson that has been the subject of an arbitration proceeding relates to the audit methodology currently employed by the Company to account for Epoetin alfa sales. The Company and Johnson & Johnson are required to compensate each other for Epoetin alfa sales that either party makes into the other party's exclusive market, sometimes described as "spillover" sales. The Company has established and is employing an audit methodology to measure each party's spillover sales and to allocate the net profits from those sales to the appropriate party. The arbitrator in this matter (the "Arbitrator") issued an opinion adopting the Company's audit methodology with certain adjustments and, subsequently, issued his final order confirming that the Company was the successful party in the arbitration. As a result, Johnson & Johnson was ordered to pay to the Company all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that the Company incurred in the arbitration as well as one-half of the audit costs. The Company submitted a bill for such costs incurred over an eight year period in the amount of approximately $110 million. On January 20, 1999, Johnson & Johnson informed the Company that it intends to contest substantially all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that the Company incurred in the arbitration as well as one-half of the audit costs. On April 15, 1999, the Arbitrator ruled that the Company cannot recover certain of its fees and costs. Although further clarification of the Arbitrator's order will be required, and although he will determine at a later date the specific amount of the unrecoverable fees, the Company has estimated that the ruling reduces the Company's potential recovery of such fees and costs by approximately $12 million. In addition to determining that amount, the Arbitrator will determine how much of the Company's remaining claim the Company is entitled to recover from Johnson & Johnson. On October 26, 1998, Johnson & Johnson filed a petition in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois seeking to vacate or modify the Arbitrator's award to the Company of all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees and costs, that the Company incurred in the arbitration. On January 8, 1999, the Company filed a motion to dismiss Johnson & Johnson's petition. That motion remains pending. Due to remaining uncertainties the Company has not recognized any benefit from the recovery of attorneys' fees and costs or audit costs. The Company has filed a demand in the arbitration to terminate Johnson & Johnson's rights under the License Agreement and to recover damages for breach of the License Agreement based on the Company's claim that Johnson & Johnson has intentionally sold PROCRIT(R) (the brand name under which Johnson & Johnson sells Epoetin alfa) into the Company's exclusive dialysis market. Johnson & Johnson disputed the Arbitrator's jurisdiction to decide the Company's demand. On March 2, 1999, the Illinois Court of Appeals denied Johnson & Johnson's appeal of the Company's successful motion for summary judgment 12
affirming the Arbitrator has jurisdiction over this matter. Pursuant to the Arbitrator's ruling, discovery has commenced. No trial date has been set. The Company is unable to predict at this time the outcome of its demand for termination of the License Agreement or when it will be resolved. While it is not possible to predict accurately or determine the eventual outcome of the above described legal matters or various other legal proceedings (including patent disputes) involving Amgen, the Company believes that the outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on its annual financial statements. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $1,368.3 million at June 30, 1999, compared with $1,276 million at December 31, 1998. Cash provided by operating activities has been and is expected to continue to be the Company's primary source of funds. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, operations provided $565.1 million of cash compared with $501.8 million during the same period last year. Capital expenditures totaled $147 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared with $236 million for the same period a year ago. The Company anticipates spending approximately $300 million to $400 million in 1999 on capital projects and equipment to expand the Company's global operations. Thereafter, over the next few years, the Company anticipates that capital expenditures will average in excess of $300 million per year. The Company receives cash from the exercise of employee stock options. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, stock options and their related tax benefits provided $198.5 million of cash compared with $121.8 million for the same period last year. Proceeds from the exercise of stock options and their related tax benefits will vary from period to period based upon, among other factors, fluctuations in the market value of the Company's stock relative to the exercise price of such options. The Company has a stock repurchase program primarily to offset the dilutive effect of its employee stock option and stock purchase plans. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company purchased 7 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $470.7 million compared with 16.4 million shares purchased at a cost of $457 million during the same period last year. In October 1998, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $1 billion of common stock through December 31, 1999. At June 30, 1999, $329.3 million of this authorization remained. To provide for financial flexibility and increased liquidity, the Company has established several sources of debt financing. As of June 30, 1999, the Company had $223 million of unsecured debt 13
securities outstanding. These unsecured debt securities consisted of: 1) $100 million of debt securities that bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.5% and mature in 2007 that were issued in December 1997 under a $500 million debt shelf registration (the "Shelf"), 2) $100 million of debt securities that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8.1% and mature in 2097 and 3) $23 million of debt securities that bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.2% and mature in 2003. Under the Shelf, all of the remaining $400 million of debt securities available for issuance may be offered under the Company's medium-term note program. The Company's sources of debt financing also include a commercial paper program which provides for short-term borrowings up to an aggregate face amount of $200 million. As of June 30, 1999, commercial paper with a face amount of $100 million was outstanding. These borrowings had maturities of less than three months and had effective interest rates averaging 5.1%. In addition, the Company has an unsecured $150 million credit facility that expires on May 28, 2003. This credit facility supports the Company's commercial paper program. As of June 30, 1999, no amounts were outstanding under this line of credit. The primary objectives for the Company's investment portfolio are liquidity and safety of principal. Investments are made to achieve the highest rate of return to the Company, consistent with these two objectives. The Company's investment policy limits investments to certain types of instruments issued by institutions with investment grade credit ratings and places restrictions on maturities and concentration by type and issuer. The Company invests its excess cash in securities with varying maturities to meet projected cash needs. The Company believes that existing funds, cash generated from operations and existing sources of debt financing are adequate to satisfy its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future, as well as to support its stock repurchase program. However, the Company may raise additional capital from time to time. Results of Operations Product sales Product sales were $737.9 million and $1,426.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively. These amounts represent increases of $126.7 million and $248.2 million or 21% over each of the same periods last year. Quarterly product sales volume is influenced by a number of factors, including underlying demand and wholesaler inventory management practices. 14
EPOGEN(R) (Epoetin alfa) EPOGEN(R) sales were $428 million and $822.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively. These amounts represent increases of $91.5 million and $182 million or 27% and 28%, respectively, over the same periods last year. These increases were primarily due to the administration of higher doses and the continuing growth in the U.S. dialysis patient population. The administration of higher doses of EPOGEN(R) was principally due to changes in reimbursement announced in March and June 1998 by the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA"), discussed below, as well as many dialysis providers using better anemia management practices, including using hemoglobin instead of hematocrit to measure red blood cell counts. In September 1997, HCFA implemented changes (the "HCFA Policy Changes") to its reimbursement policy. Prior to the HCFA Policy Changes, fiscal intermediaries under contract with HCFA were authorized to pay reimbursement claims for patients whose hematocrits exceeded 36 percent, the top of the suggested target hematocrit range in the Company's labeling, if deemed medically justified. Under the HCFA Policy Changes, medical justification was not accepted for payment of claims of hematocrits that exceeded 36 percent and, if the current month's hematocrit was greater than 36 percent and the patient's hematocrit exceeded 36.5 percent on an historical 90-day "rolling average" basis, reimbursement for the current month would be denied in full. Beginning in the second quarter of 1997, the Company experienced a decline in the growth rate of EPOGEN(R) sales as dialysis providers attempted to lower hematocrits by lowering or withholding EPOGEN(R) doses in order to avoid or minimize claim denials under the HCFA Policy Changes. However, in March 1998, HCFA announced the easing of restrictions on reimbursement that had been instituted under the HCFA Policy Changes. In June 1998, HCFA announced further revisions. In March 1998, HCFA issued two revisions (the "March HCFA Revisions") to the HCFA Policy Changes in a program memorandum. The first revision provided that, for a month in which the three month "rolling average" hematocrit exceeds 36.5 percent, HCFA would pay the lower of 100 percent of the actual dosage billed for that month, or 80 percent of the prior month's allowable EPOGEN(R) dosage. The second revision re-established authorization to make payment for EPOGEN(R) when a patient's hematocrit exceeded 36 percent when accompanied by documentation establishing medical necessity. In June 1998, HCFA issued another program memorandum establishing additional revisions (the "June HCFA Revisions") to the reimbursement policy. The policy now states that pre-payment review of claims has been eliminated and fiscal intermediaries should conduct post-payment reviews of those dialysis providers with an atypical number of patients with hematocrit levels above a 90-day "rolling average" of 37.5 percent. Additionally, HCFA stated that it is encouraging dialysis providers to maintain a hematocrit level within the range of 33 to 36 percent as recommended by the Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative. HCFA also stated that it plans to develop a national policy for medical justification for physicians who target their patients' hematocrits greater than 36 percent. In 15
the interim, individual patient treatment will continue to be subject to the physician's discretion and documentation must satisfy the judgment of the fiscal intermediary. The June HCFA Revisions supersede the HCFA Policy Changes and the March HCFA Revisions. NEUPOGEN(R) (Filgrastim) Worldwide NEUPOGEN(R) sales were $303.5 million and $590.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. These amounts represent increases of $32.9 million and $58.7 million or 12% and 11%, respectively, over the same periods last year. These increases were primarily due to the growth in demand worldwide within the cancer chemotherapy markets and the effect of higher prices in the U.S. Cost containment pressures in the U.S. health care marketplace have limited growth in domestic NEUPOGEN(R) sales. These pressures are expected to continue to influence growth for the foreseeable future. The growth of the colony stimulating factor ("CSF") market in the European Union ("EU") in which NEUPOGEN(R) competes has remained essentially flat, principally due to EU government pressures on physician prescribing practices in response to ongoing government initiatives to reduce health care expenditures. Additionally, the Company faces competition from another granulocyte CSF product. Amgen's CSF market share in the EU has remained relatively constant over the last few years, however, the Company expects that the competitive intensity may increase in the near future. Other product sales INFERGEN(R) (Interferon alfacon-1) sales were $6.3 million and $12.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. These amounts represent increases of $2.2 million and $7.3 million or 54% and 138%, respectively, over the same periods last year. INFERGEN(R) was launched in October 1997 for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection. There are existing treatments, including a new therapy launched in 1998, for this infection against which INFERGEN(R) competes. The Company cannot predict the extent to which it will penetrate this market. Cost of sales Cost of sales as a percentage of product sales was 13.4% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively, compared with 13.7% and 13.8% for the same periods last year. Research and development During the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, research and development expenses increased $41.7 million and $77.2 million, or 27% and 25%, respectively, compared with the same periods last year. These increases were primarily due to higher staff-related costs necessary to support ongoing product development activities 16
and costs related to the collaboration with PRAECIS PHARMACEUTICALS INCORPORATED. Selling, general and administrative Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $35.2 million and $55 million, or 29% and 23%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 compared with the same periods last year. These increases were primarily due to higher staff-related costs, outside marketing expenses and information management consulting fees. Income taxes The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 was 30.0% and 29.3%, respectively, compared with 30.0% for each of the same periods last year. Foreign currency transactions The Company has a program to manage certain portions of its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates arising from international operations. The Company generally hedges the receivables and payables with foreign currency forward contracts, which typically mature within one to three months. The Company uses foreign currency option and forward contracts which generally expire within 12 months to hedge certain anticipated future sales and expenses. At June 30, 1999, outstanding foreign currency option and forward contracts totaled $57.7 million and $36.6 million, respectively. Year 2000 The Year 2000 problem (the "Year 2000 Problem") results from computer programs and devices that do not differentiate between the year 1900 and the year 2000 because they were written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year; accordingly, computer systems that have time-sensitive calculations may not properly recognize the year 2000. This could result in system failures or miscalculations causing disruptions of the Company's operations, including, without limitation, manufacturing, distribution, clinical development, research and other business activities. The Year 2000 Problem is likely to affect the Company's computer hardware, software, systems, devices, applications and manufacturing equipment, including without limitation, its non- information technology systems (such as elevators, HVAC equipment, security systems and other equipment containing embedded technology such as microcontrollers) (collectively, "Computer Systems"). Amgen is not currently year 2000 compliant. Like many corporations, the Company does not have any previous experience with an issue like the Year 2000 Problem. The Year 2000 Problem potentially affects the Company across its worldwide locations and within substantially all of its business activities. Although the Company believes it is developing an appropriate program to address the Year 2000 Problem, it cannot guarantee that its program will succeed or will be timely. The following is a discussion of the Company's year 2000 program. 17
Amgen has conducted a review of its Computer Systems to identify those areas that could be affected by the Year 2000 Problem and has established a program to address year 2000 issues. The Company has substantially completed its evaluation of its functional areas and site locations worldwide. Additionally, the Company has appointed a program manager for year 2000 compliance. The Company has identified the following three principal areas of potential Computer Systems exposure at Amgen to the Year 2000 Problem, in addition to supplier and customer issues which are discussed elsewhere: - - Process Control, Instruments and Environmental Monitoring and Control Systems: these types of systems are used in the Company's manufacturing and clinical trial processes, among other operations. These generally are systems, devices and instruments which utilize date functionality and generate, send, receive or manipulate date-stamped data and signals. These systems may be found in data acquisition/processing software, laboratory instrumentation and other equipment with embedded code, for example. These devices and instruments may be controlled by installed software, firmware or other embedded control algorithms. - - Servers, Desktops and Infrastructure: these generally are desktop computers (PCs and Macintosh) and server computer equipment (NT and UNIX), telecommunications, local area networks, wide area networks, and include system hardware, firmware, installed commercial application software, e-mail, video teleconferencing and electronic calendaring systems, for example. - - Custom Applications and Business Systems: these generally are systems which the Company either wrote or for which the Company has purchased the source code, or applications purchased from an external vendor. These systems include applications developed or purchased by a functional area on computer systems located within Amgen's corporate departments and operated by departmental personnel, such as Amgen's core business systems (including financial systems and sales operations systems), fund transfer systems and personnel management systems. For each of these areas, Amgen has planned an inventory, business risk assessment, remediation, testing and implementation phase. The Company has substantially completed the first four of these phases and expects to have substantially completed the implementation phase by September 30, 1999. Upon completion of remediation and testing, the Company plans to implement appropriate Computer Systems in their year 2000-compliant form. Since the commencement of its year 2000 efforts, the Company has in the past missed some deadlines at various stages of developing and implementing its program. However, the majority of schedule slippage has been recovered and the Company is working to recover the remainder. The Company is currently behind schedule in some projects. The Company cannot guarantee that it will meet internal or external deadlines for year 2000 compliance. The Company is using both internal and external resources to identify, correct/reprogram and test its Computer Systems for year 18
2000 compliance. However, the Company cannot guarantee that these resources will be available at a reasonable cost or at all, due, in part, to competing demands for these resources which the Company anticipates will increase as January 1, 2000 nears. Further, while the Company plans to complete modifications of its business critical Computer Systems prior to the year 2000, if modifications of such business critical Computer Systems, or Computer Systems of Suppliers (as defined below) are not completed in a timely manner, the Year 2000 Problem could have a material adverse effect on the operations and financial position of the Company. The Company has identified critical providers of information, goods and services ("Suppliers") in order to assess their year 2000 compliance/readiness. Suppliers have been prioritized based on business criticality and year 2000 surveys were distributed. The Company has substantially completed its assessment of year 2000 surveys completed and returned by its Suppliers. Although the Company cannot control Suppliers' response time, the Company hopes to have confirmed year 2000 readiness of selected Suppliers by August 31, 1999. The Company does not intend to contact entities that are not critical and cannot guarantee that such entities will be year 2000 compliant. The Company plans to visit selected Suppliers to confirm their year 2000 compliance. In some cases, the Company also plans to stock extra inventory and qualify alternate suppliers, although the Company cannot guarantee the availability of additional supplies or the year 2000 compliance of alternate suppliers. The failure of Suppliers to become year 2000 compliant on a timely basis, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company has identified its key customers and is working to understand year 2000 exposure and compliance in that area. However, the Company believes that the failure of its key customers to become year 2000 compliant on a timely basis, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company may also be affected by the failure of other third parties to be year 2000 compliant even though these third parties do not directly conduct business with Amgen. For example, the failure of state, federal and private payors or reimbursers to be year 2000 compliant and thus unable to make timely, proper or complete payments to sellers and users of the Company's products, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Government Accounting Office has stated that the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA"), the principal federal reimburser for the Company's marketed products, may not become fully year 2000 compliant on a timely basis. In developing a contingency plan for the Year 2000 Problem, the Company believes that its "most reasonably likely worst case year 2000 scenario" (the "Scenario") includes periodic, sporadic disruptions to the delivery of power, water and normal telecommunication services to the Company's worldwide locations and impaired transportation, including limited air traffic capacity, which may occur in the first few months of 2000. The Scenario also contemplates the failure of Computer Systems of third parties that use the Company's products and seek reimbursement for the cost of these products (such as hospitals, physicians and dialysis providers) 19
and of third parties who reimburse for such costs (such as HCFA). Under the Scenario, the Company's manufacturing, distribution, and research and clinical development activities, among others, could be adversely affected. Although the Company believes it has identified the major elements of its "most reasonably likely worst case year 2000 scenario," there can be no assurance that the Company has accurately or adequately anticipated the effects of the Year 2000 Problem on the Company or third parties, or that the Company will develop an adequate contingency plan based on the Scenario or otherwise. The Company anticipates finalizing its contingency plan by September 1, 1999 and implementing such plan by November 1999. As of June 30, 1999, total expenditures related to the Company's year 2000 program, including, without limitation, anticipated upgrades, remediation and new Computer Systems, are expected to range from $45 million to $55 million, approximately one-third of which is expected to be capital expenditures. However, these amounts are only estimates and are based on information currently available to the Company; the Company cannot guarantee that these amounts will be adequate to address the Company's year 2000 compliance needs. As of June 30, 1999, the Company estimates that it had incurred approximately $27 million in its year 2000 efforts, including without limitation, internal staff costs, outside consulting fees and Computer Systems upgrades. The statements set forth herein concerning the Year 2000 Problem which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. There can be no guarantee that any estimates or other forward-looking statements will be achieved and actual results could differ significantly from those planned or contemplated. The Company plans to update the status of its year 2000 program as necessary in its periodic filings and in accordance with applicable securities laws. Financial Outlook The Company expects the sales growth rate for EPOGEN(R) in 1999 to be in the mid-twenties. The Company believes that dialysis providers have increased doses primarily in response to the June HCFA Revisions and due to certain dialysis providers using hemoglobin instead of hematocrit to measure red blood cell counts (see "Results of Operations - Product sales - EPOGEN(R) (Epoetin alfa)"). The Company also believes that increases in the U.S. dialysis patient population and dose will continue to grow EPOGEN(R) sales in the near term, although the Company anticipates dose may grow at a slower rate. Patients receiving treatment for end stage renal disease are covered primarily under medical programs provided by the federal government. Therefore, EPOGEN(R) sales may also be affected by future changes in reimbursement rates or a change in the basis for reimbursement by the federal government. The Clinton administration has proposed a Medicare cost savings plan which includes a provision for cutting Medicare reimbursement of EPOGEN(R) by 10%. This proposal will be addressed during the 20
federal government's fiscal year 2000 budget process. The Company believes the proposal, if enacted, would primarily affect dialysis providers that use EPOGEN(R) and it is difficult to predict its impact on Amgen. The Company expects a high single- to low double-digit sales growth rate for NEUPOGEN(R) in 1999. Future NEUPOGEN(R) sales growth is dependent primarily upon further penetration of existing markets, the effects of competitive products and the timing and nature of additional indications for which the product may be approved. NEUPOGEN(R) usage is expected to continue to be affected by cost containment pressures on health care providers worldwide. In addition, reported NEUPOGEN(R) sales will continue to be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates, government budgets and increased competition in Europe. Generally, in the U.S. the cost of drugs and biologicals administered to Medicare-eligible patients receiving outpatient services, such as chemotherapy infusion, is reimbursed under Medicare only if those drugs and biologicals qualify for coverage under Medicare Part B. Generally, drugs and biologicals that are "usually self-administered" are not covered by Medicare. However, Medicare does pay for some drugs and biologicals that are furnished incident to a physician's services. Currently, NEUPOGEN(R) is reimbursed by HCFA under Medicare Part B. HCFA has established broad Medicare coverage policies and, in some cases, interpretations of its policies. However, the Medicare program is administered by local carriers (typically a private insurance organization that contracts with HCFA) in each state, which is overseen by a medical director under contract with HCFA. These carriers and medical directors have the authority to interpret Medicare reimbursement coverage policies. Although medical directors in a few states have preliminarily considered that NEUPOGEN(R) should not be eligible for reimbursement under Medicare Part B principally because, in their opinions, it is "usually self-administered" when delivered subcutaneously, neither HCFA nor any local carrier has adopted guidelines or coverage policies that would exclude NEUPOGEN(R) from Medicare Part B coverage. However, there can be no assurance that carriers, or HCFA itself, will not in the future adopt interpretations or guidelines under Medicare Part B or otherwise, that could exclude or limit reimbursement for NEUPOGEN(R). Any guidelines or policies that limit or eliminate reimbursement for NEUPOGEN(R) could adversely affect NEUPOGEN(R) sales. The Clinton administration has proposed a reduction in the basis upon which Medicare reimburses outpatient prescription drugs from the current 95% of average wholesale price ("AWP") to a proposed 83% of AWP. This proposal would impact reimbursement of NEUPOGEN(R). The Company believes that this new recommendation, if enacted, would primarily affect customers that use NEUPOGEN(R) and it is difficult to predict its impact on Amgen. The Company anticipates the growth rate for total product sales in 1999 to be in the high teens. For 1999, Amgen expects earnings per share will be at the high end of a range of $1.90 to $1.95, assuming that the federal government will extend the research and 21
experimentation tax credit for the second half of 1999. Estimates of future product sales, operating expenses, and earnings per share are necessarily speculative in nature and are difficult to predict with accuracy. Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed herein are by their nature forward-looking. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements or projections made by the Company, including those made in this document, are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Reference is made in particular to forward-looking statements regarding product sales, earnings per share and expenses. Amgen operates in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks, some of which are beyond the Company's control. Future operating results and the Company's stock price may be affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation: (i) the results of preclinical and clinical trials; (ii) regulatory approvals of product candidates, new indications and manufacturing facilities; (iii) reimbursement for Amgen's products by governments and private payors; (iv) health care guidelines and policies relating to Amgen's products; (v) intellectual property matters (patents) and the results of litigation; (vi) competition; (vii) fluctuations in operating results and (viii) rapid growth of the Company. These factors and others are discussed herein and in the sections appearing in "Item 1. Business - Factors That May Affect Amgen" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998 which sections are incorporated herein by reference and filed as an exhibit hereto. Legal Matters The Company is engaged in arbitration proceedings with one of its licensees. For a discussion of these matters, see Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. 22
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Legal proceedings are reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998, with material developments since that report described in the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, and below. While it is not possible to predict accurately or to determine the eventual outcome of these matters, the Company believes that the outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the annual financial statements of the Company. Transkaryotic Therapies and Hoechst litigation On June 9, 1999, Transkaryotic Therapies, Inc. and Hoechst Marion Roussel Inc. filed a motion with the court to re-open proceedings. Amgen filed a notice with the court on June 10, 1999, that Amgen joined in the motion thereby re- opening the litigation. The court has set April 2000 for the start of the trial. Genentech litigation A final claim construction order was issued May 14, 1999. The judge's ruling, among other things, essentially limited the claim term "control region" to DNA taken from a single operon and not constructed from control elements derived from various operons. It may not be constructed portion-by-portion from multiple operons. Currently the case has been stayed in light of the judge's departure from the bench. The parties are waiting for a notice of reassignment to a new judge. FoxMeyer Health Corporation On January 7, 1999, the Federal Bankruptcy Court in Texas (the "Texas Bankruptcy Court") entered an order: a) denying Avatex Corporation's ("Avatex") motion which had requested dismissal of three counts ("Counts 1-3"), in the suit filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Dallas, Texas by FoxMeyer Health Corporation without prejudice; b) denying stay pending the remand appeal sought by the Company and McKesson Corporation and the eleven other manufacturer defendants (the "Defendants") and c) granting a limited interim stay until February 8, 1999 to permit the Defendants to make an orderly request for stay from the U.S. District Court judge hearing the appeals. Avatex has cross appealed the dismissal with prejudice of Counts 1-3 by the Texas Bankruptcy Court. That issue is still under advisement in the U.S. District Court in Dallas. The U.S. District Court in Dallas affirmed the decision of the Texas Bankruptcy Court directing remand of the case to the Texas State Court. That decision affirming the remand also denied as moot the appeal of the earlier order denying a transfer venue to Delaware. Various Defendants joined in an appeal to the Fifth Circuit from the order mooting the appeal of denial of change of venue; Amgen did not join in that appeal. In the Texas State Court the parties have stipulated to extensions of time for any discovery. 23
Securities litigation In June 1999, the parties entered into a memorandum of understanding regarding settlement of the actions pending in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (the "Federal Action") and in California Superior Court for the County of Ventura (the "State Action"). The memorandum of understanding provides generally that the Company will reimburse brokerage fees, subject to a maximum of $500 per claimant, associated with the repurchase of Amgen common stock by claimants who are members of the settlement class, who purchased shares during the class period, and who later sold such shares at a loss. The plaintiffs and members of the settlement class will release Amgen and the named defendants from certain claims and will dismiss the Federal Action and State Action with prejudice. The contemplated settlement is subject to court approval. Johnson & Johnson arbitrations The Company is engaged in arbitration proceedings with one of its licensees.

However, any such stockholder may nominate one or more persons for election as directors at a meeting or propose business to be brought before a meeting, or both, only if such stockholder has given timely notice in proper written form of his intent to make such nomination or nominations or to propose such business. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received by the Secretary of the corporation not later than 90 days prior to such meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than 100 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the date on which such notice of the date of such meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. To be in proper written form, a stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth: (a) the name and address of the stockholder who intends to make the nominations or propose the business and, as the case may 4
be, of the person or persons to be nominated or of the business to be proposed; (b) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and, if applicable, intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (c) if applicable, a description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the stockholder; (d) such other information regarding each nominee or each matter of business to be proposed by such stockholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had the nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, or the matter been proposed, or intended to be proposed by the Board of Directors; and (e) if applicable, the consent of each nominee to serve as director of the corporation if so elected.

indenture pursuant to which such bond, debenture or other corporate security shall be issued, the signatures of the persons signing and attesting the corporate seal on such bond, debenture or other corporate security may be the imprinted facsimile of the signatures of such persons.

ARTICLE XI Indemnification of Directors, Officers Employees and Other Agents Section 45. Indemnification of Directors, Officers, Employees and Other ----------------------------------------------------------- Agents. - ------ (a) Directors and Officers. The corporation shall indemnify its ---------------------- directors and officers to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said Law permitted the corporation to provide prior to such amendment); provided, further, that the -------- ------- corporation shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person or any proceeding by such person against the corporation or its directors, officers, employees or other agents unless (i) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors of the corporation or (iii) such indemnification is provided by the corporation, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the corporation under the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) such indemnification is required to be made under subsection (d) of this Article XI. (b) Other Employees and Other Agents. The corporation shall have the -------------------------------- power to indemnify its other employees and other agents as set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law. (c) Expenses. The corporation shall advance to any person who was or -------- is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of any such proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of any undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Bylaw or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Bylaw, no advance shall be made by the corporation to an officer of the corporation in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigate, if a determination is reasonably 17
and promptly made (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (2) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion that, the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not reasonably believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, such person believed or had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director of another corporation, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in which event this paragraph shall not apply. (d) Enforcement. Without the necessity of entering into an express ----------- contract, all rights to indemnification and advances under this Bylaw shall be deemed to be contractual rights and be effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a contract between the corporation and the director or officer who serves in such capacity at any time while this Bylaw and other relevant provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and other applicable law, if any, are in effect. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this Bylaw to a director or officer shall be enforceable by or on behalf of the person holding such right in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request therefor. The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting his claim. In connection with any claim for indemnification, the corporation shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. In connection with any claim by an officer of the corporation (except in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise) for advances, the corporation shall be entitled to raise a defense as to any such action clear and convincing evidence that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not reasonably believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, such person believed or had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that 18
indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by a director or officer to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, the burden of proving that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article XI or otherwise shall be on the corporation. (e) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by ------------------------- this Bylaw shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office. The corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers, employees or agents respecting indemnification and advances, as provided by law. (f) Survival of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this ------------------ Bylaw shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. (g) Insurance. To the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware --------- General Corporation Law, the corporation, upon approval by the Board of Directors, may purchase insurance on behalf of any person required or permitted to be indemnified pursuant to this Bylaw. (h) Amendments. Any repeal or modification of this Bylaw shall only ---------- be prospective and shall not affect the rights under this Bylaw in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any proceeding against any agent of the corporation. (i) Savings Clause. If this Bylaw or any portion hereof shall be -------------- invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Bylaw that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other applicable law. (j) Certain Definitions. For the purposes of this Bylaw, the ------------------- following definitions shall apply: 19

(iv) References to a "director," "officer," "employee," or "agent" of the corporation shall include, without limitation, situations where such person is serving at the request of the corporation as, respectively, a director, officer, employee, trustee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. (v) References to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an 20

Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate under any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful. ARTICLE XIII Amendments Section 47. Amendments.

PURPOSE. ------- (a) The purpose of the Amended and Restated 1991 Equity Incentive Plan as amended and restated in February 1999 (the "Plan") is to provide a means by which employees or directors of and consultants to Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and its Affiliates, as defined in paragraph 1(b), directly, or indirectly through Trusts, may be given an opportunity to benefit from increases in value of the stock of the Company through the granting of (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonqualified stock options, (iii) stock bonuses, and (iv) rights to purchase restricted stock, all as defined below. For purposes of the incentive stock option rules of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Plan is a new plan. (b) The word "Affiliate" as used in the Plan means any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Code. (c) The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of persons now employed by or serving as directors or consultants to the Company, to secure and retain the services of persons capable of filling such positions, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company. (d) The Company intends that the rights issued under the Plan ("Stock Awards") shall, in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or any committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to paragraph 2(c), be either (i) stock
options granted pursuant to Sections 5 or 6 hereof, including incentive stock options as that term is used in Section 422 of the Code ("Incentive Stock Options"), or options which do not qualify as Incentive Stock Options ("Nonqualified Stock Options") (together hereinafter referred to as "Options"), or (ii) stock bonuses or rights to purchase restricted stock granted pursuant to Section 7 hereof. (e) The word "Trust" as used in the Plan shall mean a trust created for the benefit of the employee, director or consultant, his or her spouse, or members of their immediate family. The word optionee shall mean the person to whom the option is granted or the employee, director or consultant for whose benefit the option is granted to a Trust, as the context shall require. 2. ADMINISTRATION. -------------- (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board unless and until the Board delegates administration to a committee, as provided in paragraph 2(c). (b) The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan: (1) To determine from time to time which of the persons eligible under the Plan shall be granted Stock Awards; when and how Stock Awards shall be granted; whether a Stock Award will be an Incentive Stock Option, a Nonqualified Stock Option, a stock bonus, a right to purchase restricted stock, or a combination of the foregoing; the provisions of each Stock Award granted (which need not be identical), including the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase or receive stock pursuant to a Stock Award; and the number of shares with respect to which Stock Awards shall be granted to each such person. (2) To construe and interpret the Plan and Stock Awards granted under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or -2-
inconsistency in the Plan or in any Stock Award, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective. (3) To amend the Plan as provided in Section 14. (4) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company.

One or more of these members may be non-employee directors and outside directors, if required and as defined by the provisions of paragraphs 2(d) and 2(e). If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board (except amendment of Section 6 or the options granted thereunder shall only be by action taken by the Board or a committee of one or more members of the Board to which such authority has been specifically delegated by the Board), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. Notwithstanding anything else in this paragraph 2(c) to the contrary, at any time the Board or the Committee may delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board the authority to grant or amend options to all employees, directors or consultants or any portion or class thereof. (d) The term "non-employee director" shall mean a member of the Board who (i) is not currently an officer of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) or an employee of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company; (ii) does not receive compensation from the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company for services rendered in any capacity other than as a member of the Board (including a consultant) in an amount -3-
required to be disclosed to the Company's stockholders under Rule 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Rule 404"); (iii) does not possess an interest in any other transaction required to be disclosed under Rule 404; or (iv) is not engaged in a business relationship required to be disclosed under Rule 404, as all of these provisions are interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. (e) The term "outside director," as used in this Plan, shall mean an administrator of the Plan, whether a member of the Board or of any Committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to paragraph 2(c), who is considered to be an "outside director" in accordance with the rules, regulations or interpretations of Section 162(m) of the Code. (f) Any requirement that an administrator of the Plan be a "non- employee director" or "outside director" shall not apply if the Board or the Committee expressly declares that such requirement shall not apply. 3. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. -------------------------- (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, the stock that may be issued pursuant to Stock Awards granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate Ninety Six Million (96,000,000) shares of the Company's $.0001 par value common stock (the "Common Stock"). If any Stock Award granted under the Plan shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full, the Common Stock not purchased under such Stock Award shall again become available for the Plan. Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to any repurchase rights reserved by the Company pursuant to the Plan shall not be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan. (b) The Common Stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise. -4-
(c) An Incentive Stock Option may be granted to an eligible person under the Plan only if the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which incentive stock options (as defined by the Code) are exercisable for the first time by such optionee during any calendar year under all such plans of the Company and its Affiliates does not exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). If it is determined that an entire Option or any portion thereof does not qualify for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option by reason of exceeding such maximum, such Option or the applicable portion shall be considered a Nonqualified Stock Option. 4. ELIGIBILITY. ----------- (a) Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees (including officers) of the Company or its Affiliates. A director of the Company shall not be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options unless such director is also an employee of the Company or any Affiliate. Stock Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to employees (including officers) or directors of or consultants to the Company or any Affiliate or to Trusts of any such employee, director or consultant. (b) A director shall in no event be eligible for the benefits of the Plan (other than from a Director NQSO under Section 6 of the Plan) unless and until such director is expressly declared eligible to participate in the Plan by action of the Board or the Committee, and only if, at any time discretion is exercised by the Board or the Committee in the selection of a director as a person to whom Stock Awards may be granted, or in the determination of the number of shares which may be covered by Stock Awards granted to a director, the Plan complies with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as from time to time in effect. The Board shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as from time to time in -5-
effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this paragraph 4(b) shall not apply if the Board or Committee expressly declares that such restrictions shall not apply. (c) No person shall be eligible for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan if, at the time of grant, such person owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any of its Affiliates unless the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option is at least one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and the Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant. (d) Stock Awards shall be limited to a maximum of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock per person per calendar year. 5. TERMS OF DISCRETIONARY STOCK OPTIONS. ------------------------------------ An option granted pursuant to this Section 5 (a "Discretionary Stock Option") shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The provisions of separate Options need not be identical, but each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions: (a) No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it was granted. (b) The exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option and each Nonqualified Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted. (c) The purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either: (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised; or (ii) at the discretion of the -6-
Board or the Committee, either at the time of grant or exercise of the Option (A) by delivery to the Company of shares of Common Stock that have been held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings and valued at the fair market value on the date of exercise, (B) according to a deferred payment or other arrangement with the person to whom the Option is granted or to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to paragraph 5(d), or (C) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board or the Committee in their discretion; including but not limited to payment of the purchase price pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instruction to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be payable at least annually and shall be charged at not less than the minimum rate of interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the deferred payment arrangement. (d) An Option granted to a natural person shall be exercisable during the lifetime of such person only by such person, provided that such person during such person's lifetime may designate a Trust to be such person's beneficiary with respect to any Incentive Stock Options granted after February 25, 1992 and with respect to any Nonqualified Stock Options, and such beneficiary shall, after the death of the person to whom the Option was granted, have all the rights that such person has while living, including the right to exercise the Option. In the absence of such designation, after the death of the person to whom the Option is granted, the Option shall be exercisable by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such Option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. -7-
(e) The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option may, but need not, be allotted in periodic installments (which may, but need not, be equal). From time to time during each of such installment periods, the Option may become exercisable ("vest") with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to that period, and may be exercised with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to such period and/or any prior period as to which the Option was not fully exercised. During the remainder of the term of the Option (if its term extends beyond the end of the installment periods), the Option may be exercised from time to time with respect to any shares then remaining subject to the Option. The provisions of this paragraph 5(e) are subject to any Option provisions governing the minimum number of shares as to which an Option may be exercised. (f) The Company may require any optionee, or any person to whom an Option is transferred under paragraph 5(d), as a condition of exercising any such Option: (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to such person's knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative who has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, and that such person is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that such person is acquiring the Common Stock subject to the Option for such person's own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Common Stock. These requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if: (x) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise of the Option has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"); or (y) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by -8-
counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities law. (g) An Option shall terminate three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate, unless: (i) such termination is due to the optionee's permanent and total disability, within the meaning of Section 422(c)(6) of the Code, in which case the Option may, but need not, provide that it may be exercised at any time within one (1) year following such termination of employment or relationship as a consultant or director; (ii) the optionee dies while in the employ of or while serving as a consultant or director to the Company or an Affiliate, or within not more than three (3) months after termination of such employment or relationship as a consultant or director, in which case the Option may, but need not, provide that it may be exercised at any time within eighteen (18) months following the death of the optionee by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such Option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; or (iii) the Option by its term specifies either (A) that it shall terminate sooner than three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate; or (B) that it may be exercised more than three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate. This paragraph 5(g) shall not be construed to extend the term of any Option or to permit anyone to exercise the Option after expiration of its term, nor shall it be construed to increase the number of shares as to which any Option is exercisable from the amount exercisable on the date of termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director. (h) The Option may, but need not, include a provision whereby the optionee may elect at any time during the term of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or any Affiliate to exercise the -9-
Option as to any part or all of the shares subject to the Option prior to the stated vesting dates of the Option. Any shares so purchased from any unvested installment or Option may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Board or the Committee determines to be appropriate. (i) To the extent provided by the terms of an Option, each optionee may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise of such Option by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares of the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the optionee as a result of the exercise of the Option a number of shares having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the withholding tax obligation; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the withholding tax obligation. (j) Without in any way limiting the authority of the Board or Committee to make or not to make grants of Discretionary Stock Options under this Section 5, the Board or Committee shall have the authority (but not an obligation) to include as part of any Option agreement a provision entitling the optionee to a further Option (a "Re-Load Option") in the event the optionee exercises the Option evidenced by the Option agreement, in whole or in part, by surrendering other shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Plan and the terms and conditions of the Option agreement. Any such Re-Load Option (i) shall be for a number of shares equal to the number of shares surrendered as part or all of the exercise price of such Option; (ii) shall have an expiration date which is the same as the expiration date of the Option the exercise of which gave rise to such Re-Load Option; and (iii) shall have an exercise price which is equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the Re-Load Option on the date of exercise of the original Option or, in the case of a Re- -10-
Load Option which is an Incentive Stock Option and which is granted to a 10% stockholder (as defined in paragraph 4(c)), shall have an exercise price which is equal to one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the Re-Load Option on the date of exercise of the original Option. Any such Re-Load Option may be an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option, as the Board or Committee may designate at the time of the grant of the original Option, provided, however, that the designation of any Re-Load Option as an Incentive Stock Option shall be subject to the one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) annual limitation on exercisability of Incentive Stock Options described in paragraph 3(c) of the Plan and in Section 422(d) of the Code. There shall be no Re-Load Option on a Re-Load Option. Any such Re-Load Option shall be subject to the availability of sufficient shares under paragraph 3(a) and shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as the Board or Committee may determine. 6. TERMS OF NON-DISCRETIONARY OPTIONS ---------------------------------- (a) On January 27 of each year, each person who is at that time an Eligible Director of the Company, (as defined in paragraph 6(k)), shall automatically be granted under the Plan, without further action by the Company, the Board, or the Company's stockholders, a Nonqualified Stock Option (a "Director NQSO") to purchase eight thousand (8,000) shares of Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth herein. An Eligible Director may designate that such Director NQSO be granted in the name of a Trust instead of in the name of such Eligible Director. The Director NQSO shall be on the terms and conditions set forth herein and should the date of grant set forth above be a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such grant shall be made on the next business day. (b) Each person who, after January 27 of any year and prior to November 1 of any year, becomes an Eligible Director, shall, upon the date such person becomes an Eligible Director, -11-
automatically be granted under the Plan, without further action by the Company, the Board, or the Company's stockholders, a Director NQSO to purchase thirty thousand (30,000) shares of Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth herein. An Eligible Director may designate that such Director NQSO be granted in the name of a Trust instead of in the name of such Eligible Director. The Director NQSO shall be on the terms and conditions set forth herein and should the date of grant set forth above be a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such grant shall be made on the next business day. (c) Each Director NQSO granted pursuant to this Section 6 (or any Director Re-Load Option granted pursuant to paragraph 6(j)) shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The provisions of separate Director NQSO's need not be identical, but each Director NQSO shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Director NQSO or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions as set forth in paragraphs 6(d) through 6(j), inclusive. (d) The term of each Director NQSO shall be ten (10) years from the date it was granted. (e) The exercise price of each Director NQSO shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to such Director NQSO on the date such Director NQSO is granted. (f) The purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to a Director NQSO shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either (i) in cash at the time the Director NQSO is exercised; (ii) by delivery to the Company of shares of Common Stock that have been held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings and valued at their fair market value on the date of exercise; or (iii) pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company -12-
before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. (g) A Director NQSO shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Eligible Director with respect to whom it was granted only by the person to whom it was granted (whether the Eligible Director or a Trust), provided that such person during the Eligible Director's lifetime may designate a Trust to be a beneficiary with respect to the Director NQSO, and such beneficiary shall, after the death of the Eligible Director to whom the Director NQSO was granted, have all of the rights designated for such beneficiary. In the absence of such designation, after the death of the Eligible Director with respect to whom the Director NQSO was granted, if such Director NQSO was granted to the Eligible Director, the Director NQSO shall be exercisable by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. (h) A Director NQSO shall not vest with respect to an Eligible Director, or the affiliate of such Eligible Director, as the case may be, (i) unless the Eligible Director, has, at the date of grant, provided three (3) years of prior continuous service as an Eligible Director, or (ii) until the date upon which such Eligible Director has provided one year of continuous service as an Eligible Director following the date of grant of such Director NQSO, whereupon such Director NQSO shall become fully vested and exercisable in accordance with its terms. (i) The Company may require any optionee under this Section 6, or any person to whom a Director NQSO is transferred under paragraph 6(g), as a condition of exercising any such option: (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to such person's knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative who has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, and that such person is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser -13-
representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Director NQSO; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that such person is acquiring the Common Stock subject to the Director NQSO for such person's own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the stock. These requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (i) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise of the Director NQSO has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or (ii), as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. (j) Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph 6(j), each Director NQSO shall include a provision entitling the optionee to a further Nonqualified Stock Option (a "Director Re-Load Option") in the event the optionee exercises the Director NQSO evidenced by the Director NQSO grant, in whole or in part, by surrendering other shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the Director NQSO grant. Any such Director Re-Load Option (i) shall be for a number of shares equal to the number of shares surrendered as part or all of the exercise price of the original Director NQSO; (ii) shall have an expiration date which is the same as the expiration date of the original Director NQSO; and (iii) shall have an exercise price which is equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the Director Re-Load Option on the date of exercise of the original Director NQSO. Any such Director Re-Load Option shall be subject to the availability of sufficient shares under paragraph 3(a). There shall be no Director Re-Load Option on a Director Re-Load Option. Notwithstanding anything else in the Plan to the contrary, this paragraph 6(j) shall be of no force and effect from and after June 23, 1998. -14-
(k) For purposes of this Section 6, the term "Eligible Director" shall mean a member of the Board who is not an employee of the Company or any Affiliate, and the term "affiliate" shall mean a person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Eligible Director. 7. TERMS OF STOCK BONUSES AND PURCHASES OF --------------------------------------- RESTRICTED STOCK. ---------------- Each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate agreements need not be identical, but each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions as appropriate: (a) The purchase price under each stock purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board or Committee shall determine and designate in such agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee may determine that eligible participants in the Plan may be awarded stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit. (b) No rights under a stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be assignable by any participant under the Plan, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except where such assignment is required by law or expressly authorized by the terms of the applicable stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement. (c) The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to a stock purchase agreement shall be paid either: (i) in cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, according to a deferred payment or other arrangement -15-
with the person to whom the Common Stock is sold; or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board or the Committee in their discretion; including but not limited to payment of the purchase price pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instruction to pay the aggregate exercise price of the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee to which administration of the Plan has been delegated may award Common Stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit. (d) Shares of Common Stock sold or awarded under the Plan may, but need not, be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board or the Committee. (e) In the event a person ceases to be an employee of or ceases to serve as a director or consultant to the Company or an Affiliate, the Company may repurchase or otherwise reacquire any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by that person which have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement between the Company and such person. 8. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. ------------------------ (a) During the terms of the Stock Awards granted under the Plan, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock required to satisfy such Stock Awards up to the number of shares of Common Stock authorized under the Plan. (b) The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of Common Stock under the Stock Awards granted under the Plan; -16-
provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act either the Plan, any Stock Award granted under the Plan or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Stock Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until such authority is obtained. 9. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM COMMON STOCK. --------------------------------- Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Stock Awards granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company. 10. MISCELLANEOUS. ------------- (a) The Board or Committee shall have the power to accelerate the time during which a Stock Award may be exercised or the time during which a Stock Award or any part thereof will vest, notwithstanding the provisions in the Stock Award stating the time during which it may be exercised or the time during which it will vest. Each Discretionary Stock Option providing for vesting pursuant to paragraph 5(e) shall also provide that if the employee's employment or a director's or consultant's affiliation with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (within the meaning of Title II or XVI of the Social Security Act and as determined by the Social Security Administration), the vesting schedule of Discretionary Stock Options granted to such employee, director or consultant or to the Trusts of such employee, director or consultant shall be accelerated by twelve months for each full year the employee has been employed by or the director or consultant has been affiliated with the Company. Discretionary Stock Options granted under the Plan that are outstanding on February 25, -17-
1992, shall be amended to include the accelerated vesting upon death provided for in the preceding sentence of this paragraph 10(a) and Discretionary Stock Options granted under the Plan that are outstanding on June 18, 1996, shall be amended to include the accelerated vesting upon disability provided for in the preceding sentence of this paragraph 10(a). (b) Neither an optionee nor any person to whom an Option is transferred under the provisions of the Plan shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject to such Option unless and until such person has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms. (c) Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Stock Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any eligible employee, consultant, director, optionee or holder of Stock Awards under the Plan any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate or to continue acting as a consultant or director or shall affect the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the employment or consulting relationship or directorship of any eligible employee, consultant, director, optionee or holder of Stock Awards under the Plan with or without cause. In the event that a holder of Stock Awards under the Plan is permitted or otherwise entitled to take a leave of absence, the Company shall have the unilateral right to (i) determine whether such leave of absence will be treated as a termination of employment or relationship as consultant or director for purposes hereof, and (ii) suspend or otherwise delay the time or times at which exercisability or vesting would otherwise occur with respect to any outstanding Stock Awards under the Plan. 11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK. ---------------------------------------- If any change is made in the Common Stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award granted under the Plan (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, dividend in property other -18-
than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan and outstanding Stock Awards will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of shares subject to the Plan, the maximum number of shares which may be granted to a participant in a calendar year, the class(es) and number of shares and price per share of stock subject to outstanding Stock Awards, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted as provided for in paragraphs 6(a) and 6(b). Such adjustment shall be made by the Board or the Committee, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a "transaction not involving the receipt of consideration".) 12. CHANGE OF CONTROL. ----------------- (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, in the event of a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined), then, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) the time during which Stock Awards become vested shall automatically be accelerated so that the unvested portions of all Stock Awards shall be vested prior to the Change in Control and (ii) the time during which the Options may be exercised shall automatically be accelerated to prior to the Change in Control. Upon and following the acceleration of the vesting and exercise periods, at the election of the holder of the Stock Award, the Stock Award may be: (x) exercised (with respect to Options) or, if the surviving or acquiring corporation agrees to assume the Stock Awards or substitute similar stock awards, (y) assumed; or (z) replaced with substitute stock awards. Options not exercised, substituted or assumed prior to or upon the Change in Control shall be terminated. (b) For purposes of the Plan, a "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred at any of the following times: -19-
(i) upon the acquisition (other than from the Company) by any person, entity or "group," within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act (excluding, for this purpose, the Company or its affiliates, or any employee benefit plan of the Company or its affiliates which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of the Company), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of fifty percent (50%) or more of either the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; or (ii) at the time individuals who, as of April 2, 1991, constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to April 2, 1991, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the Directors of the Company, as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) shall be, for purposes of the Plan, considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (iii) immediately prior to the consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, (in each case, with respect to which persons who were the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting securities) or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or of -20-
the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) the occurrence of any other event which the Incumbent Board in its sole discretion determines constitutes a Change of Control. 13. QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS ----------------------------------- (a) Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, rights under Stock Awards may be assigned to an Alternate Payee to the extent that a QDRO so provides. (The terms "Alternate Payee" and "QDRO" are defined in paragraph 13(c) below.) The assignment of a Stock Award to an Alternate Payee pursuant to a QDRO shall not be treated as having caused a new grant. The transfer of an Incentive Stock Option to an Alternate Payee may, however, cause it to fail to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. If a Stock Award is assigned to an Alternate Payee, the Alternate Payee generally has the same rights as the grantee under the terms of the Plan; provided however, that (i) the Stock Award shall be subject to the same vesting terms and exercise period as if the Stock Award were still held by the grantee, (ii) an Alternate Payee may not transfer a Stock Award and (iii) an Alternate Payee is ineligible for Re-Load Options described at paragraph 5(j) or Director Re-Load Options described at paragraph 6(j). (b) In the event of the Plan administrator's receipt of a domestic relations order or other notice of adverse claim by an Alternate Payee of a grantee of a Stock Award, transfer of the proceeds of the exercise of such Stock Award, whether in the form of cash, stock or other property, may be suspended. Such proceeds shall thereafter be transferred pursuant to the terms of a QDRO or other agreement between the grantee and Alternate Payee. A grantee's ability to exercise a Stock Award may be barred if the Plan administrator receives a court order directing the Plan administrator not to permit exercise. (c) The word "QDRO" as used in the Plan shall mean a court order (i) that creates or recognizes the right of the -21-
spouse, former spouse or child (an "Alternate Payee") of an individual who is granted a Stock Award to an interest in such Stock Award relating to marital property rights or support obligations and (ii) that the administrator of the Plan determines would be a "qualified domestic relations order," as that term is defined in section 414(p) of the Code and section 206(d) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"), but for the fact that the Plan is not a plan described in section 3(3) of ERISA. 14.

EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN. ---------------------- The Plan shall become effective as determined by the Board. -23-
EXHIBIT 10.20 AMENDED AND RESTATED AMGEN PERFORMANCE BASED MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN I. Purpose This Amended and Restated Amgen Performance Based Management Incentive Plan (the "MIP" or the "Plan") is maintained by Amgen, Inc. (the "Company") to: A. Attract and retain persons of outstanding competence. B. Broaden the total compensation program. C. Stimulate outstanding effort to bring about exceptional operating performance and to reward the contributors to this performance by providing them with a share of the resulting benefits. The Plan is intended to supplement the Participant's base salary and result in total cash compensation for above average performance which exceeds the average compensation levels of comparable companies. The MIP consists of two plans: one plan for the payment of incentive awards that are intended to satisfy Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)'s "qualified performance- based compensation" requirements and one plan for the payment of incentive awards that are not intended to satisfy Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)'s "qualified performance-based compensation" requirements. II. Basic Concepts Since the purpose of this Management Incentive Plan is to stimulate and reward outstanding performance in the accomplishment of specific objectives, the Plan should generally be formally integrated with the objectives of the total management system. The Plan should thus support a continuing and meaningful emphasis on the effective use of goal setting and management by objectives and generally should be aligned with the goals reflected in the approved Annual Plan of the Company. Annual incentive award programs under the Plan shall be developed under the following basic concepts: A. The advance identification of the participants in the Plan and the establishment of target incentive awards, specific performance goals and the extent to which each such objective shall determine the actual award. 1
B. The establishment of a range in the actual awards available under the Plan to reflect the achievements of the respective participants as well as the achievement of the Company-wide performance goals. III. Eligibility A. Participation in the Amgen Management Incentive Plan shall be limited to all executive officers of the Company and its subsidiaries and certain other key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries nominated by the Chairman of the Board (the "Chairman") and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (each a "Participant"). B. Unless otherwise specifically authorized by the Compensation Committee, persons approved for participation in the Amgen Management Incentive Plan shall be excluded from participation in any other cash bonus or incentive program. IV. Basis of Participation A. Participants may receive incentive awards under the Management Incentive Plan on the basis of percentages established in advance -- as recommended by the Chairman and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors as part of the annual compensation plan. B. The target incentive award for a Participant shall be developed in accordance with the following: 1. In connection with the planning of their performance goals for the MIP year, the Chairman shall recommend (for approval by the Compensation Committee) the individual Participants and the target incentive award for each such Participant (expressed as a % of the base pay of the Participant). 2. The target incentive award for each Participant (expressed as a % of base pay of the Participant) shall be established in accordance with guidelines established by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee shall designate those target incentive awards intended to constitute "qualified performance based compensation" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), as "Section 162(m) Awards" (such awards are hereinafter referred to as "Section 162(m) Awards"). (a) Because of the many variables in establishing base salary structures, the Plan does not contemplate achieving any degree of uniformity in the relationship of awards to base pay. Therefore, the range of target incentive awards will be rather broad. Individual target incentive awards should be based upon consideration of: (1) Relative significance of the individual's function in directly influencing the performance of the Company. 2
(2) Relative performance rating of the individual. (3) Length of time in position and/or Plan. Generally, it should be expected that initial percentages for new Participants will be set at levels which allow for gradual increases within the established range based upon Participant's performance. (4) The relative competitive total compensation for the respective positions. C. Each Plan year, the Compensation Committee shall establish a formula for determining the amount of incentive award a Participant may receive and such formula shall specify the Participants or class of Participants to which such formula applies. Generally, a formula established by the Compensation Committee should reflect both (i) Company-wide goals ("Corporate Goals") which generally should be based on key elements of the Company's Annual Plan and (ii) specific goals relating to the performance of the respective Participant ("Individual Goals"). Corporate Goals and Individual Goals with respect to a Section 162(m) Award shall be objective and the formula with respect to a Section 162(m) Award must be objective and state the method for computing the amount that may be paid to the Participant if the performance goal or goals are attained. A formula established by the Compensation Committee may provide that if certain specified goals are not met, no incentive awards will be awarded under the Plan for the Plan year to which such formula applies. D. Subject to Sections IV.E.4., VII.C., VIII.B., VIII.C. and VIII.D., the actual incentive award to a Participant under the Plan shall be computed according to the formula determined pursuant to Section IV.C.; provided, however, that the Compensation Committee shall have the discretion to increase or decrease the amount of the award payable (except that with respect to Section 162(m) Awards, the Committee shall not have the discretion to increase the amount payable pursuant to the formula). A Participant may receive an award that is less than, equal to or greater than his or her target incentive award provided, however, that the calculation of any Section 162(m) Award (including any increase above the target incentive award but excluding any decrease in the award payable) shall not be discretionary but rather shall be pursuant to an objective formula for computing the amount of compensation payable to the Participant if the applicable performance goals are attained. E. Individual Goals shall be established as follows: 1. Individual Goals should generally be based on business criteria underlying the Corporate Goals and relate to significant and measurable areas that require special attention during the current year. The purpose is to add special emphasis to those particular activities and reward for their accomplishments. From year-to-year, it is expected that the emphasis will change both in relation to the selected Individual Goals as well as to the importance of such goals in determining the actual incentive award. 3
Individual Goals with respect to a Section 162(m) Award shall be based on one or more of the business criteria set forth in Section V.A. 2. Individual Goals should generally be precise in establishing the targets and the basis for measurement of accomplishment. Wherever there can be variations in the degree of accomplishment (such as a dollar target for total revenues or joint ventures; a target for filing IND's or PLA's; etc.), the extent to which such goal will be considered satisfied upon attainment of the levels of accomplishment should be clearly stated. Individual Goals with respect to a Section 162(m) Award shall be precise in establishing the targets and the basis for measurement of accomplishment, and if there can be variations in the degree of accomplishment of an Individual Goal with respect to a Section 162(m) Award, the extent to which such goal will be considered satisfied upon attainment of the levels of accomplishment shall be clearly stated. 3. Where Individual Goals relate to dollar objectives, they should be identified with or reconciled to amounts reflected in the Company's approved Annual Plan. 4. If operating conditions during the year make it desirable to change emphasis on established Individual Goals or to establish new Individual Goals, a revised formula should be submitted to and approved by the Compensation Committee; provided, however, that this subsection IV.E.4. shall in no event apply to Section 162(m) Awards. V. Provisions Applicable to Section 162(M) Awards A. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, Section 162(m) Awards shall be paid solely on account of the attainment of one or more objective performance goals which are (i) preestablished by the Compensation Committee, (ii) based on one or more of the business criteria listed below in subsection V.B. and (iii) state, in terms of an objective formula or standard, the method for computing the amount of compensation payable to the Participant if the goal is attained; provided, however, that Section 162(m) Awards may also be paid in accordance with Section VIII.B. B. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, performance goals with respect to which Section 162(m) Awards may be paid shall be based on one or more of the following business criteria: return on capital employed, revenue growth, profit after taxes, product development, research, sales, in-licensing, out-licensing, mergers, acquisitions, sales of assets or subsidiaries, litigation, human resources, information services, manufacturing, production, inventory, support services, site development, plant development, building development, facility development, government relations, product market share, management, Board of Directors composition, year 2000, finance, net income, pre-tax income, operating income, cash flow, earnings per share, return on equity, return on invested capital, return on assets, cost reductions or savings, funds from operations, appreciation 4
in the fair market value of common stock, total return to stockholders and earnings before any one or more of the following items: interest, taxes, depreciation or amortization. C. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the final award of any Section 162(m) Award (including any increase above the target incentive award but excluding any decrease in the award payable) shall not be discretionary but rather shall be pursuant to an objective formula for computing the amount of incentive award payable to the Participant if the applicable goals are attained. D. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, for any Plan year the Committee may establish for any Participant a target incentive award intended to constitute a Section 162(m) Award or a target incentive award not intended to constitute a Section 162(m) Award ("Non-Section 162(m) Award") or both; provided, however, that if for any Plan year, the Committee establishes for any one Participant both a target Section 162(m) Award and a target Non-Section 162(m) Award, the performance goals underlying the target Section 162(m) Award must be different from the performance goals underlying the target Non-Section 162(m) Award. Furthermore, the Section 162(m) Award must be calculated separately from and without regard to the Non- Section 162(m) Award and the Non-Section 162(m) Award must be calculated separately from and without regard to the Section 162(m) Award. E. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent necessary to comply with the qualified performance-based compensation requirements of Code Section 162(m), award formulas for any Section 162(m) Awards shall be adopted in each performance period by the Compensation Committee no later than the latest time permitted by Code Section 162(m) (generally, for performance periods of one year or more, no later than 90 days after the commencement of the performance period). No Section 162(m) Awards shall be paid to Participants unless and until the Compensation Committee makes a certification in writing with respect to the attainment of the performance goals with respect to such Section 162(m) Award as required by Code Section 162(m). Although the Compensation Committee may in its sole discretion reduce a Section 162(m) Award payable to a Participant pursuant to the applicable formula, subject to Section VIII.B. the Compensation Committee shall have no discretion to increase the amount of a Participant's Section 162(m) Award as determined under the applicable formula. VI. Administration A. The overall administration of this Management Incentive Plan shall be under the direction of the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee shall consist solely of two or more members of the Company's Board of Directors who qualify as "outside directors" for Section 162(m) purposes. 5
B. Responsibility for the operating administration of the Plan shall be under the direction of the Company's Vice President of Human Resources. VII. Determination of Awards A. Promptly following the close of the Plan year, the respective managers shall evaluate the performance of the Participants, determine the extent to which Individual Goals were achieved (in terms of % achievement, subject to a maximum percentage established annually by the Compensation Committee, which in no event shall be more than 150%) and forward for review and approval (with respect to Section 162(m) Awards, such review and approval shall be by the Compensation Committee). In all cases, the extent to which Individual Goals were achieved shall be determined only after a self-assessment has been completed. B. The final determination of the extent to which Corporate Goals were achieved (in terms of % achievement, subject to a maximum percentage established annually by the Compensation Committee, which in no event shall be more than 150%) will be made by the Compensation Committee, promptly following the availability of year-end financial and technical results. C. Subject to the limitation that the maximum amount payable under the Plan to any employee during any calendar year may not exceed $1,800,000 and subject to Sections IV.D., IV.E.4., VIII.B., VIII.C. and VIII.D., dollar awards to Participants shall be computed according to the formula established under Section IV.C., using, to the extent applicable to such formula, the percent achievement determined in accordance with subsection A. above and the percent achievement determined in accordance with subsection B. above. VIII. Payments, Termination of Employment and General Conditions A. Subject to Section VIII.C. and VIII.D., payments to Participants who have been determined to be entitled to an award will be made in cash generally not later than the fifteenth day of the third month following the close of the Company's Fiscal Year. B. If a Participant dies or a Participant's employment is terminated for any reason prior to the end of the Plan year, the payment of any award (and in the case of death, the person or persons to whom such payment shall be made) shall be determined at the sole discretion of the Committee; provided, however, that a Participant who terminates employment prior to the end of the Plan year may receive a Section 162(m) Award at the discretion of the Committee only if such termination was due to death, disability or a change of ownership or control of the Company, unless the performance goals applicable to such Section 162(m) Award were attained prior to such termination. C. While it is the intent of the Company to continue the Plan during any year for which it is established and to make awards to Participants in accordance with these policies and guidelines, the Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the Plan, any annual incentive program under the Plan or any 6
Participant's participation in the Plan at any time or on such conditions as the Compensation Committee shall deem appropriate; provided, however, that once the Compensation Committee has established the performance goals underlying a Section 162(m) Award, the Committee may not change either such performance goals or the formula for computing whether such goals were met and the Committee may not increase the amount of the targeted Section 162(m) Award (the Compensation Committee may , however, decrease the amount of a Participant's actual Section 162(m) Award). No Participant shall have any right to any award under the Plan until such award and the amount thereof has been finally approved by the Compensation Committee and communicated to such Participant after the end of the year for which the award is being made. D. No awards shall be paid under the Plan unless and until the material terms of the performance goals under which Section 162(m) Awards may be paid have been approved by the Company's stockholders as required by Section 162(m) of the Code. So long as the Plan shall not have been previously terminated by the Company, the material terms of the performance goals under which Section 162(m) Awards may be paid shall be resubmitted for approval by the Company's stockholders in the fifth year after the material terms of the performance goals under which Section 162(m) Awards may be paid shall have first been approved by the Company's stockholders and every fifth year thereafter. In addition, the material terms of the performance goals under which Section 162(m) Awards may be paid shall be resubmitted to the Company's stockholders for approval if the Plan is amended in any way which changes the employees eligible under the Plan, the business criteria listed in Section V.B. above, the maximum amount of compensation which may be paid to any Participant under the Plan in any calendar year, or for purposes of Section 162(m), otherwise changes the material terms of the performance goals under which Section 162(m) Awards may be paid. 7

EXHIBIT 99 AMGEN INC. Factors That May Affect Amgen Amgen operates in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks, some of which are beyond our control. The following discussion highlights some of these risks and others are discussed elsewhere herein. Product development We intend to continue an aggressive product development program. Successful product development in the biotechnology industry is highly uncertain, and very few research and development projects produce a commercial product. Product candidates that appear promising in the early phases of development, such as in early human clinical trials, may fail to reach the market for a number of reasons, such as: - - the product candidate was not effective in treating a specified condition or illness - - the product candidate had harmful side effects on humans - - the necessary regulatory bodies (such as the FDA) did not approve our product candidate for an indicated use - - the product candidate was not economical for us to manufacture it - - other companies or people may have proprietary rights to our product candidate (e.g. patent rights) and will not let us sell it on reasonable terms, or at all - - the product candidate is not cost effective in light of existing therapeutics - - the product candidate did not demonstrate acceptable clinical trial results even though it demonstrated positive preclinical trial results For example, in 1997, we announced the failure of BDNF (for the treatment of ALS by subcutaneous injection administration route), because the product candidate, as administered, did not produce acceptable clinical results in a specific indication after a phase 3 trial, even though BDNF had progressed through preclinical and earlier clinical trials. Of course, there may be other factors that prevent us from marketing a product. We cannot guarantee we will be able to produce commercially successful products. Further, clinical trial results are frequently susceptible to varying interpretations by scientists, medical personnel, regulatory personnel, statisticians and others which may delay, limit or prevent further clinical development or regulatory approvals of a product candidate. Also, the length of time that it takes for us to complete clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval for product marketing has in the past varied by product and by the indicated use of a product. We expect that this will likely be the case with future product candidates and we cannot predict the length of time to complete necessary clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval. See "- Regulatory matters." 1
Regulatory matters Our research, preclinical testing, clinical trials, facilities, manufacturing, pricing and sales and marketing are subject to extensive regulation by numerous state and federal governmental authorities in the U.S., such as the FDA and the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA"), as well as by foreign countries and the European Union (the "EU"). Currently, we are required in the U.S. and in foreign countries to obtain approval from those countries' regulatory authorities before we can market and sell our products in those countries. The success of our current and future products will depend in part upon obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval to market products in approved indications in the U.S. and foreign markets. In our experience, the regulatory approval process is a lengthy and complex process, both in the U.S. and in foreign countries, including countries in the EU. Even if we obtain regulatory approval, both our manufacturing processes and our marketed products are subject to continued review. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products or manufacturing processes may result in restrictions on such product or manufacturing processes, including withdrawal of the products from the market. Our failure to obtain necessary approvals, or the restriction, suspension or revocation of any approvals, or our failure to comply with regulatory requirements could prevent us from manufacturing or selling our products which could have a material adverse effect on us and our results of operations. Reimbursement; Third party payors In both domestic and foreign markets, sales of our products are dependent, in part, on the availability of reimbursement from third party payors such as state and federal governments (for example, under Medicare and Medicaid programs in the U.S.) and private insurance plans. In certain foreign markets, the pricing and profitability of our products generally are subject to government controls. In the U.S., there have been, and we expect there will continue to be, a number of state and federal proposals that limit the amount that state or federal governments will pay to reimburse the cost of drugs. In addition, we believe the increasing emphasis on managed care in the U.S. has and will continue to put pressure on the price and usage of our products, which may impact product sales. Further, when a new therapeutic is approved, the reimbursement status and rate of such a product is uncertain. In addition, current reimbursement policies for existing products may change at any time. Changes in reimbursement or our failure to obtain reimbursement for our products may reduce the demand for, or the price of, our products, which could result in lower product sales or revenues which could have a material adverse effect on us and our results of operations. For example, in the U.S. the use of EPOGEN(R) in connection with treatment for end stage renal disease is funded primarily by the U.S. federal government. Therefore, as in the past, EPOGEN(R) sales could be affected by future changes in reimbursement rates or the basis for reimbursement by the federal government. For example, in early 1997, HCFA instituted a reimbursement change for EPOGEN(R) which adversely affected the Company's EPOGEN(R) sales. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 2
Condition and Results of Operations - Results of Operations - Product sales - EPOGEN(R) (Epoetin alfa)." Guidelines Government agencies promulgate regulations and guidelines directly applicable to us and to our products. However, professional societies, practice management groups, private health/science foundations and organizations involved in various diseases may also publish, from time to time, guidelines or recommendations to the health care and patient communities. These organizations may make recommendations that affect a patient's usage of certain therapies, drugs or procedures, including our products. Recommendations of government agencies or these other groups/organizations may relate to such matters as usage, dosage, route of administration and use of concomitant therapies. Recommendations or guidelines that are followed by patients and health care providers could result in, among other things, decreased use of our products which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, the perception by the investment community or stockholders that such recommendations or guidelines will be followed could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. Intellectual property and legal matters The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and often involve complex legal, scientific and factual questions. To date, there has emerged no consistent policy regarding breadth of claims allowed in such companies' patents. Accordingly, the patents and patent applications relating to our products and technologies may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by third parties and might not protect us against competitors with similar products or technology. Patent disputes are frequent and can preclude commercialization of products. We are currently, and in the future may be, involved in patent litigation. The results of such litigation could subject us to competition and/or significant liabilities, could require us to enter into third party licenses or could cause us to cease using the technology or product in dispute. In addition, we cannot guarantee that such licenses will be available on terms acceptable to us. The Company is currently involved in arbitration proceedings with Ortho Pharmaceutical Corporation (which has assigned its rights under the Product License Agreement to Ortho Biotech, Inc.), a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson ("Johnson & Johnson"), relating to a license granted by the Company to Johnson & Johnson for sales of Epoetin alfa in the U.S. for all human uses except dialysis. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, "Contingencies - Johnson & Johnson arbitrations". Competition We operate in a highly competitive environment. Our principal competitors are pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Some of our competitors, mainly large pharmaceutical corporations, have greater clinical, research, regulatory and marketing resources than 3
we do. In addition, some of our competitors may have technical or competitive advantages over us for the development of technologies and processes and the acquisition of technology from academic institutions, government agencies and other private and public research organizations. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to produce or acquire rights to products that have commercial potential. Even if we achieve successful product commercialization, we cannot guarantee that one or more of our competitors will not achieve product commercialization earlier than we do, obtain patent protection that dominates or adversely affects our activities, or have significantly greater marketing capabilities. Fluctuations in operating results Our operating results may fluctuate from period to period for a number of reasons. In budgeting our operating expenses, some of which are fixed in the short term, we assume that revenues will continue to grow. Accordingly, even a relatively small revenue shortfall may cause a period's results to be below our expectations. A revenue shortfall could arise from any number of factors, such as: - - lower than expected demand for our products - - changes in the government's or private payor's reimbursement policies for our products - - changes in wholesaler buying patterns - - increased competition from new or existing products - - fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates - - changes in our product pricing strategies Of course, there may be other factors that affect the Company's revenues in any given period. Rapid growth We have an aggressive growth plan that includes substantial and increasing investments in research and development and facilities. Our plan has a number of risks, such as: - - the need to generate higher revenues to cover a higher level of operating expenses - - the need to manage complexities associated with a larger and faster growing organization - - the need to accurately anticipate demand for the products we manufacture and maintain adequate manufacturing capacity Of course, there may be other risks and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to successfully manage these or other risks. Stock price volatility Our stock price, like that of other biotechnology companies, is extremely volatile. Our stock price may be affected by, among other things, clinical trial results and other product-development announcements by us or our competitors, regulatory matters, announcements in the scientific and research community, intellectual property and legal matters, changes in reimbursement policies or 4
medical practices or broader industry and market trends unrelated to our performance. In addition, if our revenues or earnings in any period fail to meet the investment community's expectations, there could be an immediate adverse impact on our stock price. 5
