         This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement
on Schedule 14D-1 filed by PharmaInvest, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability
company (the "Purchaser"), on behalf of Pharmaceutical Royalties, L.L.C., a
Delaware limited liability company, and Pharmaceutical Royalty Investments Ltd.,
a Bermuda company (collectively the "Funds"), and on behalf of Pharmaceutical
Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company and the sole member of
Purchaser, relating to the offer by Purchaser to purchase outstanding
contractual contingent payment rights arising from the purchase of Class A
Interests of Amgen Clinical Partners, L.P. (the "CCPRs"), at $220,000 per CCPR,
net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon, on the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 29, 1999 (the
"Offer to Purchase"), and in the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which
are attached hereto as Exhibits (a)(1) and (a)(2), respectively (which, together
with any amendments or supplements hereto or thereto, collectively constitute
the "Offer").

         As of 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on Monday, October 18, 1999, no
CCPRs had been tendered in the Offer.

         The paragraph entitled "Opportunity for liquidity" under the section
"Risk Factors" in the Offer is hereby amended by inserting the following
sentences after the last sentence of the current paragraph: "Upon tendering your
CCPRs, your own broker, custodian, IRA trustee or other owner of record for the
CCPRs may charge you a fee or commission, which will not be reimbursed by
Purchaser. Purchaser is not able to determine what those fees or commissions, if
any, will be. Investors are strongly advised to consult their own broker,
custodian, IRA trustee or other owner of record for the CCPRs with respect to
the amount and nature of any fees or commissions that may be charged in
connection with the tender of CCPRs to Purchaser."
