Reconciliation of 2008 GAAP and Non-GAAP EPS Estimates
Our 2008 non-GAAP EPS estimate excludes the effects of: (i) recurring amortization charges related to the 1999 redemption of our common stock by Roche Holdings, Inc. and our acquisition of Tanox, Inc., which the company forecasts to be approximately $172 million on a pretax basis in 2008, (ii) litigation-related and similar special items for accrued interest and associated bond costs on the City of Hope judgment which the company forecasts to be in the range of $15 million to $20 million on a pretax basis in 2008, (iii) recognition of deferred royalty revenue associated with the accounting for our acquisition of Tanox, Inc., which the company forecasts to be approximately $15 million on a pretax basis in 2008, (iv) income tax effect on recurring charges related to the redemption of our common stock and our acquisition of Tanox, Inc., litigation-related and similar special items, and recognition of deferred royalty revenue, which the company forecasts to be approximately $67 million to $69 million in 2008, and (v) employee stock-based compensation expense, which the company forecasts to be in the range of $0.25 to $0.27 per share for 2008 on an after-tax basis. Our 2008 GAAP EPS would include the items listed above as well as any other potential special charges related to existing or future litigation or its resolution, or changes in or adoption of accounting principles, all of which may be significant.

The statements regarding the amounts relating to the 1999 Roche redemption of our common stock, amortization of intangible assets and recognition of deferred royalty revenue associated with the acquisition of Tanox, Inc., litigation-related and similar special items and employee stock-based compensation expense are forward-looking and such statements are predictions and involve risks and uncertainties such that actual results may differ materially. The amounts identified above could be affected by a number of factors, including a re-valuation of certain intangible assets, greater than expected litigation-related and similar costs, changes in or adoption of accounting principles, the number of options granted to employees, our stock price and certain valuation assumptions concerning our stock. We disclaim, and do not undertake, any obligation to update or revise any of these forward-looking statements.
