net to the seller in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated as of October 19, 2000 (the "Offer to

         "On December 27, 2000, SmithKline Beecham plc ("SmithKline Beecham")
         became a wholly-owned subsidiary of GlaxoSmithKline plc, a public
         limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales ("GSK"),
         upon the effectiveness of the merger of SmithKline Beecham and Glaxo
         Wellcome plc pursuant to a scheme of arrangement approved by the
         English High Court. Thereafter, on January 11, 2001, SmithKline Beecham
         assigned all its rights and obligations as a party to the Agreement and
         Plan of Merger among SmithKline Beecham, Purchaser and the Company,
         dated October 7, 2000, to SBHC. SmithKline Beecham also transferred to
         SBHC 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the
         Purchaser. SBHC is now the sole shareholder of the Purchaser.

         On January 11, 2001, GSK and the Company received final regulatory
         clearance from the European Commission to complete the Offer and the
         Merger.

         Reference is hereby made to the press release issued by GSK and the
         Company on January 11, 2001, a copy of which is attached hereto as
         Exhibit (a)(1)(J) and incorporated herein by reference."
