We are a biopharmaceutical company that develops and intends to commercialize antibody therapeutic products for the treatment of a variety of disease conditions, including cancer, inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, transplant-related diseases, cardiovascular disease and infectious diseases. We have proprietary technologies that facilitate rapid generation of highly specific, antibody therapeutic product candidates that contain fully human protein sequences and that bind to disease targets appropriate for antibody therapy. We refer to these candidates as fully human antibody therapeutic candidates. We developed our XenoMouse® technology, a technology using genetically modified mice to generate fully human antibodies. We also own a technology that enables the rapid identification of antibodies with desired function and characteristics, referred to as SLAM™ technology. In our XenoMax™ technology, we use SLAM technology to select and isolate antibodies with particular function and characteristics from antibody-producing cells generated by XenoMouse animals. We believe XenoMax technology enhances our capabilities in product development and flexibility in manufacturing. We intend to use our technologies to build a large and diversified product portfolio that we expect to develop and commercialize through licensing arrangements with pharmaceutical companies and others, through joint development and through internal product development programs. We have entered into a variety of contractual arrangements with multiple pharmaceutical, biotechnology and genomics companies involving our XenoMouse technology. Two of our customers, Pfizer and Amgen, have initiated clinical trials with fully human antibodies generated from XenoMouse animals. In addition, as of March 31, 2002, we had four proprietary antibody product candidates in clinical trials, one of which we had agreed to co-develop and commercialize with Immunex Corporation and one of which we had agreed to co-develop and commercialize with SangStat Medical Corporation.

Confluent is a private medical device company founded in August 1998, that is pioneering the development of In-situ-polymerized Biomaterials. These materials have almost universal applications across minimally invasive surgery, because they allow the safe, simple, and rapid, formation of customized implants at the site of disease. This process can take place rapidly when two aqueous solutions of molecularly designed synthetic polymers mix together. Confluent's vision is to address unmet needs in surgery and interventional procedures using its technology platform of in situ polymerization.
