11-Year Financial Summary Footnotes

We have paid no dividends. We currently intend to retain all future income for use in the operation of our business and for future stock repurchases and, therefore, do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation.

All share and per share amounts reflect two-for-one stock splits of our Common Stock that were effected in 2004, 2000 and 1999.

* Common Stock began trading July 20, 1999; prior to that date, shares were Special Common Stock. On June 30, 1999, we redeemed all of our outstanding Special Common Stock held by stockholders other than Roche (also known as the Redemption). Roche's percentage ownership of our outstanding equity increased from 65 percent to 100 percent. On July 23, 1999, October 26, 1999, and March 29, 2000, Roche completed public offerings of our Common Stock. At December 31, 2008, Roche's ownership percentage was 55.8 percent.

(1) Represents recurring recognition of deferred royalty revenue, non-recurring asset impairment charges in 2008, and non-recurring items in 2007 related to our acquisition of Tanox in 2007.

(2) Primarily reflects amortization of other intangible assets in 1999 through 2008 and goodwill amortization in 1999 through 2001 related to the Redemption and pushdown accounting, and the acquisition of Tanox in 2007.

(3) Represents employee stock-based compensation expense associated with our adoption of FAS 123R on January 1, 2006. No employee stock-based expense was recognized in GAAP-reported cost of sales in any period ending prior to January 1, 2007.

(4) Represents costs incurred by the company on behalf of the Special Committee in connection with its review of the Roche Proposal, as well as legal costs incurred in defense of the Special Committee and/or its individual members in shareholder lawsuits filed in connection with the Roche Proposal.

(5) Reflects the income tax benefit on employee stock-based compensation expense under FAS 123R, recurring charges related to the Redemption, litigation-related and similar special items, items related to our acquisition of Tanox, costs related to the Roche Proposal, and other non-GAAP reconciling items.

(6) GAAP 1999 results reflect the Redemption and push-down accounting and include the combined new basis and old basis periods presented in the 1999 Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Refer to our 2001 Form 10-K (Part II, Item 8) on file with the SEC.

(7) Includes costs related to the sale of inventory that was written up at the Redemption due to push-down accounting.

(8) Charges related to the Redemption and push-down accounting ($1,208) million and legal settlements ($230) million.

(9) Reflects the effect of the Redemption and related push-down accounting of $5,202 million of excess purchase price over net book value, net of charges and accumulated amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets.

(10) Reflects the impact of the adoption of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition," effective January 1, 2000.

(11) Reflects the effect of the adoption of FAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."

(12) The $150 million long-term debt in 2000 was reclassified to current liabilities to reflect the March 27, 2002 maturity.

(13) We adopted FAS 141, "Business Combinations" (FAS 141), and FAS 142, "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets" (FAS 142), on January 1, 2002. In accordance with FAS 141 and FAS 142, we discontinued the amortization of goodwill and our trained and assembled workforce intangible asset, which resulted in an increase in reported net income by approximately $158 million (or $0.15 per share) in 2002, as compared to the accounting prior to the adoption of FAS 141 and FAS 142.

(14) Amount includes litigation-related special charges which comprised the COH litigation judgment in the second quarter of 2002, including accrued interest and costs related to obtaining a surety bond, and certain other litigation-related matters. For further information on these charges, see the "Results of Operations" section of Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in Part II of our 2002 Form 10-K on file with the SEC.

(15) Includes approximately $788 million at December 31, 2006, $735 million at December 31, 2005, $682 million at December 31, 2004 and $630 million at each of December 31, 2003 and 2002 of restricted cash pledged to secure a bond for the COH judgment. In 2007, the restricted cash balance of $788 million was reclassified as a short-term asset. As a result of the California Supreme Court ruling in April 2008, we paid $476 million to COH in the second quarter of 2008, reflecting the amount of compensatory damages awarded plus interest thereon from the date of the original decision, June 10, 2002. The restrictions were lifted from the restricted cash and investments accounts in the third quarter of 2008, which consisted of available-for-sale investments, and the funds became available for use in our operations. For further information on the COH judgment, see Note 9, "Leases, Commitments, and Contingencies" in Part II, Item 8 of our 2008 Form 10-K on file with the SEC.

(16) Litigation-related special items in 2008 comprised the net settlement of ($300) million related to the COH trial judgment and additional costs accrued of $40 million related to the COH contract dispute based on the status of negotiations between the parties on amounts owed for periods subsequent to the original court judgment rendered in 2002, in 2007 and 2006 comprised accrued interest and bond costs related to the COH judgment, in 2005 comprised accrued interest and bond costs related to the COH judgment and net amounts paid related to other litigation settlements, in 2004 comprised accrued interest and bond costs related to the COH judgment (net of a released accrual on a separate litigation matter), and in 2003 comprised Amgen and Bayer litigation settlements (net of accrued interest and bond costs related to the COH litigation).

(17) Reflects the impact of the adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." For more information, see the "Results of Operations" section of Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in Part II of our 2003 Form 10-K on file with the SEC.

(18) Long-term debt in 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005 includes approximately $2 billion related to our debt issuance in July 2005. For further information, see Note 8, "Debt," in Part II, Item 8 of our 2008 Form 10-K on file with the SEC. Long-term debt in 2008 was reduced by a $200 million financing payment related to the construction of a manufacturing facility in Singapore. Long-term debt in 2005 was also reduced by the repayment of $425 million to extinguish the consolidated debt and noncontrolling interest related to a synthetic lease obligation. For further information, see Note 9, "Leases, Commitments, and Contingencies" in Part II, Item 8 of our 2008 Form 10-K on file with the SEC and Note 7, "Leases, Commitments, and Contingencies" in Part II, Item 8 of our 2005 Form 10-K on file with the SEC.

(19) We capitalized costs in property, plant and equipment of approximately $117 million in 2008, $203 million in 2007, $104 million in 2006 and $94 million in 2005 related to our accounting for construction projects for which we are considered to be the owner of the buildings during the construction period. These costs have been excluded from 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005 capital expenditures. We have also recognized $306 million, $399 million, $216 million and $94 million as construction financing obligations in long-term debt as of December 31, 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, related to these projects. Capital expenditures for 2008 also exclude a $200 million financing payment related to the construction of a manufacturing facility in Singapore that reduced our long-term debt balance as of December 31, 2008.
