                                 GENE LOGIC INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  JUNE 30, 2000
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

         The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Gene Logic Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (the "Company"). The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2000, consolidated statements
of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 and the
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999 are unaudited, but include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of
the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods
presented. Although the Company believes that the disclosures in these financial
statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading,
certain information and footnote information normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

         Results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
results for any future interim period or for the entire year. The accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Comprehensive Loss

         Total comprehensive loss was $5.06 million and $10.04 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, and $4.42 million and
$9.39 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively.

Marketable Securities Available-for-Sale

         All marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with accumulated
unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Realized gains and
losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary for
available-for-sale securities are included in other income.

Goodwill

         Goodwill, from the acquisition of Oncormed, Inc. ("Oncormed") in
September 1998, represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair market
value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is being amortized over five years at
a rate of approximately $1.5 million per year. Amortization expense was $0.4
million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively. Accumulated amortization of goodwill was $2.7 million and
$1.9 million as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

         Technology and database access fees are recognized evenly over the term
of the Company's collaboration agreements. Revenues from research and
development support are recognized when they are earned, which is ordinarily
when the work is performed or costs are incurred. Milestone payments are
recognized as revenue in accordance with the applicable performance requirements
and contractual terms. Subscription fees to the GeneExpress(TM) Suite of
databases ("GeneExpress Suite") are recognized evenly over the term of the
subscription. Revenues for such amounts are deferred until earned.

         Nonrefundable upfront payments received for the value of data
purchased, transferred technology or other contractual rights that are not
contingent upon future performance under the terms of the collaboration
agreements are recognized as revenue when earned. Under collaboration agreements
in which the Company creates a research database in exchange for a fixed fee,
revenues from such collaborations are recognized on the percentage-of-completion
method.

         In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB
101"). SAB 101 is based upon existing accounting rules and provides guidance on
how those rules should be applied. SAB 101 specifically addresses revenue
recognition for nonrefundable upfront fees in the biotechnology industry. Should
a change in accounting policy be necessary, the change would be reported as a
cumulative effect adjustment with resulting deferred revenue being recognized in
future periods over the remaining terms of the applicable agreements. The
Company will adopt SAB 101 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 and is
currently evaluating the effect the implementation of SAB 101 will have on its
results of operations and financial position.

NOTE 2.  LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS

         Since April 2000, the Company has held an interest in NeuralStem
Biopharmaceuticals, Ltd. ("NeuralStem"), a company commercializing proprietary,
patented central nervous system stem cell technology as new therapeutics and
research tools for drug discovery. The carrying value of the investment in
NeuralStem is approximately $8.0 million and consists of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock. The Company's voting stock interest in NeuralStem constituted
26.7% of the outstanding voting securities at the time of the investment. The
Company accounts for this investment under the equity method of accounting. The
Company holds no common stock interest in NeuralStem. Therefore, in accordance
with APB Opinion No. 18, no portion of the earnings or losses of NeuralStem are
reflected in the Company's statements of operations.

NOTE 3.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         On February 1, 2000, the Company completed a public offering of its
common stock at $56.00 per share. The Company sold 4,680,000 shares, including
the underwriters' over-allotment option. Net proceeds to the Company, after
deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were
approximately $247.5 million.

NOTE 4.  LITIGATION

         On October 19, 1999, a lawsuit was filed in the Circuit Court of Cook
County, Illinois against Oncormed, Inc. and Gene Logic Inc. alleging that
Oncormed was negligent in determining and reporting laboratory test results of a
genetic test conducted by Oncormed. Oncormed sold its testing business to a
third-party company prior to the Company's acquisition of Oncormed. The Company
is not engaged in any type of genetic testing, nor does the Company have plans
to enter such markets. The Company maintains insurance coverage against such
claims, and does not believe this action will have a material adverse impact
on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.



                                       7

         In December 1999, Incyte Genomics, Inc., formerly Incyte
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., ("Incyte") filed an action against the Company in the
United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Case No.
C99-5180 MJJ. In the action, Incyte asserts claims against the Company for
infringement of certain patent rights held by Incyte. The alleged infringement
involves the Company's use of a process that Affymetrix, Inc. recommends be used
in the preparation of samples for use with the Affymetrix GeneChip(R) platform.
The Company intends to defend its position vigorously. There can be no guarantee
that such defense will be successful and neither the ultimate outcome nor the
range of any losses resulting from this action can be made at this time. This
action will continue to require significant management time and expense for the
foreseeable future.

NOTE 5.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

         At December 31, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information". SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for reporting
information about operating segments in annual and interim financial statements
and related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and major
customers. The Company's operations are treated as one operating segment.

         The following is a breakdown of revenue by major collaborators
exceeding ten percent (10%) of such revenues and by geographic areas:

OVERVIEW

         We were incorporated in September 1994 and have devoted substantially
all of our resources to the development of our genomics technologies,
bioinformatics systems and database products for use in pharmaceutical,
diagnostic and agricultural product research and development.

         Since 1997, we have developed custom gene expression databases designed
for each of our customers' internal programs and needs and targeted to specific
therapeutic areas of interest, including heart failure, kidney disease,
osteoporosis, psychiatric disorders and other major illnesses. Building on this
know-how, in March 1999, we began developing the GeneExpress Suite, our
large-scale reference database of gene expression information. The GeneExpress
Suite contains information from a broad range of normal and diseased human
tissues, tissues from experimental animals, human and animal cell lines and
tissues that have been treated with many different drugs. We completed
development of the first commercial version of the GeneExpress Suite in November
1999. We currently market the GeneExpress Suite through nonexclusive
subscriptions to customers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and diagnostic
industries, and are developing versions of the database suite to market to the
academic and government life science research community and to physicians and
patients. We sold our first subscription to the GeneExpress Suite in
December 1999.

         Customers for our custom database and related software products can
provide us with various combinations of recurring technology and database access
fees, research fees, certain additional payments upon the attainment of research
and product development milestones, royalty payments based on sales of any
products resulting from their use of our products, and nonrefundable upfront
payments all of which are recognized as revenue in accordance with relevant
generally accepted accounting principles. Subscribers to our GeneExpress Suite
pay us varying database subscription fees depending upon the level and type of
information they obtain.

         Technology and database access fees are recognized evenly over the term
of each customer agreement. We recognize revenues from research and development
support when they are earned, which is ordinarily when the work is performed or
costs are incurred. Milestone payments and royalties are



                                       9
<PAGE>   10

recognized when they are earned in accordance with the applicable performance
requirements and contractual terms. Subscription fees to the GeneExpress Suite
are recognized evenly over the term of the subscription. Revenues for such
amounts are deferred until earned. Nonrefundable upfront payments received for
the value of data purchased, transferred technology or other contractual rights
that are not contingent upon future performance under the terms of the
agreements are recognized as revenue when earned. Under collaboration agreements
in which we create research databases in exchange for fixed fees, revenues from
such collaborations are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method.

         Our future profitability will depend in part on the successful
establishment of agreements with additional customers which include various
combinations of genomic databases, bioinformatics software and genomics
technology and the successful commercialization of the GeneExpress Suite.
Payments for access to custom databases and the GeneExpress Suite are expected
to be our primary source of revenue for the foreseeable future. We have not
received, and do not expect to receive, significant royalty or other revenues
from development and commercialization of products by our customers using our
databases and other technology for several years, if at all. Revenues from our
customers may be subject to significant fluctuation in both timing and amount,
and, therefore, our results of operations for any period may not be comparable
to the results of operations for any other period.

         We have incurred operating losses in each year since our inception. At
June 30, 2000, we had accumulated operating losses of approximately $88.2
million. Our losses have resulted principally from costs incurred in the
development of our gene expression databases, a $35.2 million non-recurring
charge incurred in connection with our acquisition of Oncormed and general and
administrative costs associated with our operations. These costs have exceeded
our revenues which, to date, have been generated principally from agreements for
our custom database and related software products. We expect to incur additional
operating losses in future years.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

         Revenues increased $1.3 million or 26% to $6.5 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 from $5.2 million for the same period in 1999.
Revenues increased $2.3 million or 24% to $11.5 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 from $9.3 million for the same period in 1999. The increase in
revenues resulted primarily from additional subscribers to the GeneExpress
Suite, as well as additional custom database revenues relating to milestone
payments received from certain customers. Due to the conclusion of the Aventis
CropScience collaboration in June 2000 and the uncertain timing of milestone
payments, revenues for the third quarter of 2000 are expected to decrease as
compared to revenues during the second quarter of 2000. Payments from each of
Aventis CropScience, Japan Tobacco and Procter & Gamble accounted for 10% or
more of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, and payments
from each of Aventis CropScience, Japan Tobacco, Organon and Procter & Gamble
accounted for 10% or more of revenues for the same periods in 1999.

         Research and development expenses increased to $10.6 million and $19.1
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, from
$7.5 million and $14.5 million for the same periods in 1999. The increase in
research and development expenses for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 2000 was primarily attributable to increased usage of sample tissues and
Affymetrix GeneChips to expand and enhance the content of the GeneExpress Suite.
We expect research and development expenses to increase as we expand the content
of the GeneExpress Suite, further develop the Flow-thru Chip and pursue our
recent collaboration with Life Technologies, Inc.

         During the second quarter of 2000, we entered into an agreement with
Life Technologies, Inc. whereby the two companies will collaborate to provide
customers with full-length sequences and clones. We began recording expenses
related to this agreement in the second quarter of 2000 and expect such expenses
to increase. Revenues from this collaboration are not expected to begin until
the middle of 2001.



                                       10
<PAGE>   11

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $4.5 million
and $7.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively,
from $2.0 million and $3.8 million for the same periods in 1999. These costs
include the costs of corporate operations, finance and accounting, human
resources, sales and marketing and other general operations. For the three and
six month periods, approximately $1.5 million and $2.5 million, respectively, of
the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was attributable to
increases in personnel expenses, recruiting and relocation costs and employee
travel related to the expansion of our sales and marketing efforts and general
business operations. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected
to increase as we expand our product offerings and sales and marketing efforts.

         Amortization of goodwill was $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as a result of the
acquisition of Oncormed in September 1998.

         Net interest income increased to $3.8 million and $6.1 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, from $0.2 million and
$0.5 million for the same periods in 1999 primarily due to investment of the
proceeds of our public offering of common stock in February 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         From inception through June 30, 2000, we have financed our operations
through the sale of equity securities, payments from customers, and equipment
and tenant improvement financing. In February 2000, we completed a public
offering of 4,680,000 shares of our common stock (including exercise of the
underwriters' over-allotment option), generating net proceeds of approximately
$247.5 million. As of June 30, 2000, we have also obtained $0.5 million of
capital lease financing and $6.3 million under equipment and tenant improvement
loans. As of June 30, 2000, we had approximately $242.8 million in cash and
marketable securities, compared to $12.4 million as of December 31, 1999.

         Net cash used in operating activities was $5.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $8.1 million for the same period in 1999.
During the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, we primarily used cash to
fund our operating losses.

         The Company's investing activities, other than sales, maturities and
purchases of available-for-sale securities, consisted of capital expenditures,
an $8.0 million equity investment in NeuralStem and capitalized software costs.
The increase in capital expenditures, which totaled $4.8 million and $1.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, was
primarily due to increased efforts in expanding the content in the GeneExpress
Suite. The increase in capitalized software costs of $1.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was due to ongoing efforts to enhance the software
interface of the GeneExpress Suite, specifically GeneExpress 2000. Capitalized
software costs are expected to increase as a result of continuing efforts to
further enhance the GeneExpress Suite. Capital expenditures are expected to
increase at the end of 2000 and early 2001 as we meet our expanding facility
requirements.

         Our financing activities, other than the repayment of capital lease
obligations and equipment loans, consisted of the issuance of common stock
primarily through our public offering in February 2000 and the exercise of stock
options.

         We believe that existing cash and marketable securities and anticipated
cash flow from operations will be sufficient to support our operations for the
foreseeable future. These estimates are forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties. Our actual future capital requirements and the adequacy
of our available funds will depend on many factors, including those discussed in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the
following:

  - progress of our discovery programs;

  - the number and breadth of these programs;

  - our ability to establish and maintain additional arrangements with
    customers, including additional subscriptions to the GeneExpress Suite;

  - the commercial success of the in-process technologies we acquired in our
    acquisition of Oncormed;

  - the progress of the development and commercialization efforts of our
    customers;

  - the level of our activities relating to our independent discovery programs
    and to the development and commercialization rights we retain in our
    arrangements with customers;

  - competing technological and market developments;

  - the costs associated with obtaining access to tissue samples and related
    information; and

  - the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and
    enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights.

         We could require additional financing in the future, which we may seek
to raise through public or private equity or debt offerings. To the extent that
we raise additional capital by issuing equity or convertible debt securities,
ownership dilution to stockholders will result. If adequate financing is not
available when needed, we may be required to:

    - curtail significantly one or more of our research and development
      programs;

    - obtain funds through arrangements with customers that may require us to
      relinquish rights to certain of our technologies, discoveries or
      potential products; or

    - grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.


NEW PRONOUNCEMENT

           In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB
101"). SAB 101 is based upon existing accounting rules and provides guidance on
how those rules should be applied. SAB 101 specifically addresses revenue
recognition for nonrefundable upfront fees in the biotechnology industry. Should
a change in accounting policy be necessary, the change would be reported as a
cumulative effect adjustment with resulting deferred revenue being recognized in
future periods over the remaining terms of the agreements. We will adopt SAB 101
for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. We are currently evaluating the effect
the implementation of SAB 101 will have on its results of operations and
financial position.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

         We do not hold any financial instruments subject to significant market
risk.

PART II          OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         On October 19, 1999, a lawsuit was filed in the Circuit Court of Cook
County, Illinois against Oncormed, Inc. and Gene Logic Inc. alleging that
Oncormed was negligent in determining and reporting laboratory test results of a
genetic test conducted by Oncormed. Oncormed sold its testing business to a
third-party company prior to our acquisition of Oncormed. We are not engaged in
any type of genetic testing, nor do we have plans to enter such markets. We
maintain insurance coverage against such claims, and do not believe this action
will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or
results of operations.

         In December 1999, Incyte Genomics, Inc., formerly Incyte
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., filed an action against us in the United States District
Court for the Northern District of California, Case No. C99-5180 MJJ. In the
action, Incyte asserts claims against us for infringement of certain patents
held by Incyte. The alleged infringement involves our use of a process that
Affymetrix recommends be used in the preparation of samples for use with the
Affymetrix GeneChip platform. We intend to defend our position vigorously. There
can be no guarantee that our defense will be successful and neither the ultimate
outcome nor the range of any losses resulting from this action can be predicted
at this time. We expect this action will continue to require significant
management time and expense for the foreseeable future.
