                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of directors and Stockholders
CELGENE CORPORATION:

     We have audited the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets of Celgene
Corporation  and  subsidiary  as of December 31, 1998 and 1999,  and the related
consolidated statements of operations,  stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash
flows for each of the years in the  three-year  period ended  December 31, 1999.
These consolidated  financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our  responsibility is to express an opinion on these  consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted  our audits in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance about whether the  consolidated  financial  statements are
free of material  misstatement.  An audit includes  examining,  on a test basis,
evidence  supporting the amounts and disclosures in the  consolidated  financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial  statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the consolidated  financial  statements  referred to above
present  fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of Celgene
Corporation  and subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and the results of
their  operations  and their cash flows for each of the years in the  three-year
period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with generally accepted  accounting
principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1998, AND 1999

(1)  NATURE OF BUSINESS AND LIQUIDITY

     Celgene  Corporation  and its  subsidiary  (collectively  "Celgene"  or the
     "Company")  is an  independent  biopharmaceutical  company  engaged  in the
     discovery, development and commercialization of novel human pharmaceuticals
     for the  treatment  of cancer and  immunological  diseases.  The  Company's
     primary  therapeutic  focus is on the  development of orally  administered,
     small molecule  pharmaceuticals  that regulate tumor necrosis factor alpha,
     or TNF-(alpha), and are anti-angiogenic. TNF-(alpha) has been linked to the
     cause and symptoms of many chronic inflammatory and immunological diseases.
     Anti-angiogenic  drugs  inhibit the growth of  undesirable  blood  vessels,
     including those that promote tumor growth.  Our lead product,  THALOMID(TM)
     (thalidomide),  was approved for sale in the United States by the U.S. Food
     and Drug  Administration,  ("FDA"),  on July 16, 1998. THALOMID is approved
     for the treatment of erythema nodosum  leprosum,  ("ENL"),  an inflammatory
     complication of leprosy. Our cancer and immunology  pharmaceutical pipeline
     is highlighted  by two classes of novel and  proprietary  oral  therapeutic
     agents,  IMiDs,  or  ImmunoModulatory  Drugs,  and  SelCIDs,  or  Selective
     Cytokine  Inhibitory  Drugs.  Both  classes  are  being  developed  for the
     treatment of cancer,  chronic inflammatory  diseases,  such as inflammatory
     bowel disease and  rheumatoid  arthritis,  and other diseases of the immune
     system.

     The Company  expects that its rate of spending  will increase as the result
     of increased clinical trial costs,  increased expenses  associated with the
     regulatory  approval  process  and  commercialization  of  products  now in
     development,  increased costs related to the commercialization of THALOMID,
     and increased working capital requirements. This increased spending will be
     mitigated  by  the  collection  of  receivables  resulting  from  sales  of
     THALOMID.  It is anticipated that the increasing sales of THALOMID, as well
     as existing cash resources,  will be sufficient to fund operations  through
     2000.

     The consolidated  financial  statements  include the parent Company and its
     subsidiary Celgro. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated. The
     preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to
     make  estimates  and   assumptions   that  affect   reported   amounts  and
     disclosures.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company
     is  subject to  certain  risks and  uncertainties  such as  uncertainty  of
     product  development,   uncertainties  regarding  regulatory  approval,  no
     assurance  of market  acceptance  of products,  risk of product  liability,
     uncertain scope of patent and proprietary rights, intense competition,  and
     rapid technological change.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     (A)  CASH EQUIVALENTS

          At December 31, 1998 and 1999, cash equivalents  consisted principally
          of funds invested in money market funds, and United States  government
          securities such as treasury bills and notes.

                               CELGENE CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                        DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1998 AND 1999


     (B)  MARKETABLE SECURITIES

          The Company classifies all of its marketable  securities as securities
          available for sale. Such securities are held for an indefinite  period
          of time and were  intended  to be used to meet the  ongoing  liquidity
          needs of the  Company.  Realized  gains and  losses  are  included  in
          operations  and are measured  using the specific  cost  identification
          method.

     (C)  INVENTORY

          Inventories  are priced at lower of cost or market using the first-in,
          first-out  (FIFO)  method.  Prior to FDA  approval,  the raw material,
          formulation  and  encapsulation  costs related to Thalomid  production
          were recorded as research and development expense.

     (D)  LONG-LIVED ASSETS

          Plant and  equipment  are  stated at cost.  Depreciation  of plant and
          equipment is provided using the  straight-line  method.  The estimated
          useful lives of fixed assets are as follows:

               Laboratory equipment and machinery              5-10 years
               Furniture and fixtures                          5-10 years

          Amortization  of  leasehold   improvements  is  calculated  using  the
          straight-line  method  over the  term of the  lease or the life of the
          asset,  whichever is shorter.  Maintenance  and repairs are charged to
          operations  as  incurred,   while   renewals  and   improvements   are
          capitalized.

          The Company reviews  long-lived assets for impairment  whenever events
          or changes in  business  circumstances  occur that  indicate  that the
          carrying  amount of the assets  may not be  recoverable.  The  Company
          assesses the  recoverability  of long-lived assets held and to be used
          based on undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment,  if any,
          using discounted cash flows.

     (E)  RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

          All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

     (F)  INCOME TAXES

          The Company  utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for
          income taxes.  Under this method,  deferred tax assets and liabilities
          are determined based on the difference between the financial statement
          carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted
          tax rates in effect for years in which the temporary  differences  are
          expected to reverse.

          Research and development tax credits will be recognized as a reduction
          of the provision for income taxes when realized.

     (G)  REVENUE RECOGNITION

          Revenue from the sale of products is recognized upon product shipment.
          Revenue  under  research  contracts  is recorded  as earned  under the
          contracts,  generally as services are provided.

                               CELGENE CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                        DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1998 AND 1999


          Revenue is recognized  immediately for nonrefundable license fees when
          agreement  terms require no additional  performance on the part of the
          Company.

     (H)  STOCK OPTION PLAN

          The Company  applies the  intrinsic  value-based  method of accounting
          prescribed by  Accounting  Principles  Board  ("APB")  Opinion No. 25,
          Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations,
          in accounting for its fixed plan stock options. As such,  compensation
          expense  would be  recorded  on the date of grant only if the  current
          market price of the  underlying  stock  exceeded  the exercise  price.
          Statement  of  Financial   Accounting   Standard   ("SFAS")  No.  123,
          Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation,  established  accounting and
          disclosure  requirements using a fair value-based method of accounting
          for stock-based  employee  compensation  plans. As allowed by SFAS No.
          123,  the  Company  has  elected to  continue  to apply the  intrinsic
          value-based method of accounting  described above, and has adopted the
          disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123.

     (I)  EARNINGS PER SHARE

          "Basic"  earnings  per  common  share  equals  net  income  divided by
          weighted  average  common  shares   outstanding   during  the  period.
          "Diluted"  earnings per common share equals net income  divided by the
          sum of weighted  average common shares  outstanding  during the period
          plus common stock  equivalents  if dilutive.  The Company's  basic and
          diluted per share  amounts are the same since the assumed  exercise of
          stock  options,  and  warrants,  and  the  conversion  of  convertible
          debentures and preferred  stock are all  anti-dilutive.  The amount of
          common stock equivalents  excluded from the calculation were 3,770,954
          in 1997, 3,863,535 in 1998 and 5,296,624 in 1999.

     (J)  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

          On  January 1, 1998,  the  Company  adopted  SFAS No.  130,  Reporting
          Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting
          and presentation of comprehensive  income and its components in a full
          set of financial  statements.  Comprehensive income (loss) consists of
          net  losses  and  the  change  in net  unrealized  gains  (losses)  on
          securities  and  is  presented  in  the  consolidated   statements  of
          stockholders' equity (deficit).  SFAS No. 130 requires only additional
          disclosures  in the  financial  statements;  it does  not  affect  the
          Company's financial position or results of operations.

     (K)  PRESENTATION

          In  connection   with  the   disposition   of  the  Company's   chiral
          intermediate  operation  in January  1998 (see note 10),  the 1997 and
          1998 financial  results  applicable to continuing  operations  exclude
          amounts from this discontinued operation.

     (L)  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

          The fair value, which equals carrying value, of marketable  securities
          available for sale is based on quoted market prices.  The  convertible
          notes  approximate  fair  value due to  interest  rates  approximating
          market rates. For all other financial instruments their carrying value
          approximates   fair  value  due  to  the  short   maturity   of  these
          instruments.

                        DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1998 AND 1999


          In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and
          Hedging  Activities  was issued and, as amended,  is effective for all
          fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133, standardizes
          the accounting for derivative instruments including certain derivative
          instruments  embedded  in  other  contracts  and  requires  derivative
          instruments to be recognized as assets and liabilities and be recorded
          at fair value.  The Company is currently  not party to any  derivative
          instruments.  Any future transactions involving derivative instruments
          will be evaluated based on SFAS No. 133.

     (M)  OTHER ASSETS

          Other  Assets  include  certain  patent  rights,  the cost of which is
          amortized using the straight line method over the life of the patents.
          The weighted average  remaining patent life at December 31, 1999 is 12
          years.

(6)  CONVERTIBLE DEBT

     On  September  16,  1998,  the  Company  issued  a  convertible  note to an
     institutional  investor  in the amount of  $8,750,000.  The note has a five
     year term and a coupon rate of 9.25% with interest payable on a semi-annual
     basis.  The note contains a conversion  feature that allows the note holder
     to convert  the note into common  shares at $11 per share.  The Company can
     redeem the note after three  years at 103% of the  principal  amount,  (two
     years if the Company's  stock trades at $24.75 or higher for a period of 20
     consecutive  trading days).  This note was issued at a discount of $437,500
     which is being amortized over three years.

     On January 20,  1999,  the Company  issued to an  institutional  investor a
     convertible  note in the  amount of  $15,000,000.  The note has a five year
     term and a coupon rate of 9% with interest payable on a semi-annual  basis.
     The note  contains a  conversion  feature  that  allows the note  holder to
     convert the note into common  shares  after one year at $18 per share.  The
     Company  can  redeem the note after  three  years at 103% of the  principal
     amount,  (two years under certain  conditions).  Issuance costs of $750,000
     incurred in connection with this note are being amortized over three years.

     On July 6, 1999,  the Company  issued to a third  institutional  investor a
     convertible  note in the  amount of  $15,000,000.  The note has a five year
     term and a coupon rate of 9% with interest payable on a semi-annual  basis.
     The note  contains a  conversion  feature  that  allows the note  holder to
     convert the note into common  shares  after one year at $19 per share.  The
     Company  can  redeem the note after  three  years at 103% of the  principal
     amount, (two years under certain conditions).  There was no fee or discount
     associated with this note.

     At 12/31/99,  the fair value of the Company's  convertible  notes  exceeded
     their  carrying  value,  reflecting  the  increase  to $70 per share in the
     market value of the Company's common stock at that date.

     SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

     During 1996, in a private placement,  the Company completed the sale of 503
     shares of Series A Convertible  Preferred  Stock, par value $.01 per share,
     at an issue price of $50,000  per share.  All of the shares of the Series A
     Convertible  Preferred Stock with their respective accrued  accretion,  had
     been  converted  or  redeemed  into  3,342,202  shares of  common  stock at
     December 31, 1998.

     During  1996,  the Company had issued  warrants  valued at  $138,156,  that
     entitle certain stockholders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to
     purchase 153,507 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50. The
     warrants  were issued in exchange  for the  deferral of  conversion  for 90
     days. All these warrants  either expired or were exercised for 3,418 shares
     of common  stock at  December  31,  1998.  In  connection  with the private
     placement, the Company also granted to certain executives and affiliates of
     the placement agent warrants,  valued at $60,168,  to purchase an aggregate
     of 66,853 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $20.52, subject to
     proportional  adjustment  in the event that the Company  undertakes a stock
     split,  stock dividend,  recapitalization  or similar event. These warrants
     are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance. As of
     December 31, 1999, 35,039 warrants were exercised to purchase 23,322 shares
     of common stock.

     SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

     During 1997,  in a private  placement,  the Company  completed  the sale of
     5,000  shares  of  Series B  Convertible  Preferred  Stock  (the  "Series B
     Preferred"),  par value  $.01 per  share,  at an issue  price of $1,000 per
     share.  The  Company  received  net  proceeds,   after  offering  costs  of
     $4,840,748.  Shares could be converted  at an initial  conversion  price of
     $6.50 per share.  All shares of the Series B Preferred  had been  converted
     into 788,469 shares of common stock at December 31, 1998.

     Upon request of the  purchasers  of the Series B Preferred,  the Company is
     required to issue  warrants  to acquire a number of shares of common  stock
     equal to (i)  1,500,000  divided by the  Conversion  Price in effect on the
     Issuance Date (230,769 warrants as of December 31, 1999) plus (ii) 37.5% of
     the conversion shares issuable on such issuance date upon conversion of all
     shares of Series B Preferred  issued  through the  issuance  date  (288,461
     warrants as of December 31,  1999).  All such  warrants will have a term of
     four years from the  issuance  date and an exercise  price equal to 115% of
     the conversion  price in effect on the issuance date ($6.50 at December 31,
     1999).  The fair  value of  warrants  at the  issuance  date was  $1.28 per
     warrant. As of December 31, 1999 no warrants have been exercised.

     RIGHTS PLAN

     During 1996, the Company adopted a shareholder rights plan ("Rights Plan").
     The Rights Plan involves the  distribution  of one "Right" as a dividend on
     each  outstanding  share of the  Company's  common  stock to each holder of
     record on  September  26,  1996.  Each Right  shall  entitle  the holder to
     purchase  one-tenth of a share of common stock.  The Rights trade in tandem
     with the common stock until, and are exercisable upon,  certain  triggering
     events, and the exercise price is based on the estimated long term value of
     the  Company's  common  stock.  In certain  circumstances,  the Rights Plan
     permits the holders to purchase  shares of the Company's  common stock at a
     discounted rate. The Company's Board of Directors  retains the right at all
     times  prior  to  acquisition  of 15%  of our  voting  common  stock  by an
     acquiror,  to  discontinue  the Rights Plan through the  redemption  of all
     rights or to amend the Rights Plan in any respect.

(8)  STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

     (A)  STOCK OPTIONS

          The Company has two  Incentive  Plans that provide for the granting of
          options,   restricted  stock  awards,   stock   appreciation   rights,
          performance  awards  and other  stock-based  awards to  employees  and
          officers  of the  Company to purchase  not more than an  aggregate  of
          1,400,000  shares of common  stock  under the 1992 plan and  1,500,000
          shares of common  stock  under the 1998 plan,  subject  to  adjustment
          under  certain   circumstances.   The  Management   Compensation   and
          Development  Committee  of the Board of  Directors  (the  "Committee")
          determines  the type,  amount and  terms,  including  vesting,  of any
          awards made under the Incentive Plans. The Plans terminate in 2002 and
          2008, respectively.

          With  respect  to  options  granted  under the  Incentive  Plans,  the
          exercise  price  may not be less  than  the fair  market  value of the
          common  stock on the date of grant.  In general,  each option  granted
          under the Plans  vests  evenly  over a three or four year  period  and
          expires 10 years from the date of grant, subject to earlier expiration
          in case of termination  of employment.  The vesting period for options
          and  restricted  stock  awards  granted  under the Plans is subject to
          certain acceleration  provisions if a change in control, as defined in
          the Plans, occurs.

          On June 16, 1995, the  stockholders  of the Company  approved the 1995
          Non-Employee   Directors'  Incentive  Plan,  which  provides  for  the
          granting of  non-qualified  stock  options to purchase an aggregate of
          not more than 350,000  shares of common stock  (subject to  adjustment
          under certain  circumstances)  to directors of the Company who are not
          officers or employees of the Company ("Non-Employee Directors").  Each
          new Non-Employee  Director,  upon the date of election or appointment,
          receives  an  option  to  purchase  20,000  shares  of  common  stock.
          Additionally,  upon the date of each annual  meeting of  stockholders,
          each continuing  Non-Employee  Director receives an option to purchase
          10,000  shares of  common  stock (or a pro rata  portion  thereof  for
          service less than one year).  The shares subject to each  non-employee
          director's  option  grant of 20,000  shares vest in four equal  annual
          installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
          The shares  subject to an annual  meeting option grant vest in full on
          the date of the first annual  meeting of  stockholders  held following
          the date of grant.  On June 22, 1999, the  stockholders of the Company
          approved an amendment to the 1995  Non-Employee  Directors'  Incentive
          Plan that a.)  increased  the  number of  shares  to  600,000  and b.)
          provided  for a  discretionary  grant  upon  the  date of each  annual
          meeting of an  additional  option to purchase up to 5,000  shares to a
          non-employee director who serves as a member (but not a chairman) of a
          committee  of the  Board of  Directors  and up to  10,000  shares to a
          non-employee director who serves as the chairman of a committee of the
          Board of Directors.  All options are granted at an exercise price that
          equals the fair  market  value of the  Company's  common  stock at the
          grant  date and  expire 10 years  after  the date of grant.  This plan
          terminates in 2005.

          The  weighted-average  fair value per share for stock options  granted

</TABLE>

     A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some
     portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At December
     31,  1999,  the Company had Federal net  operating  loss  carryforwards  of
     approximately  $184,000,000  and state net operating loss  carryforwards of
     approximately $121,000,000 that will expire in the years 2001 through 2019.
     State net operating  loss  carryforwards  differ from Federal net operating
     loss  carryforwards  primarily  due to  the  fact  that  the  Company  sold
     approximately  $39,000,000  of its state net operating  loss carry forwards
     during 1999 and approximately $24,000,000 has expired. The Company also has
     research  and   experimentation   credit   carryforwards  of  approximately
     $3,984,000   that  expire  in  the  years  2001  through   2019.   Ultimate
     utilization/availability  of such net  operating  losses and credits may be
     curtailed if a significant  change in ownership occurs. Of the deferred tax
     asset  related to the Federal and state net operating  loss  carryforwards,
     approximately  $12,500,000  relates to a tax  deduction  for non  qualified
     stock  options.  The  Company  will  increase  paid in  capital  when these
     benefits are realized for tax purposes.

(10) DISCONTINUED OPERATION

     On January  9, 1998,  the  Company  concluded  an  agreement  with  Cambrex
     Corporation for Cambrex to acquire Celgene's chiral  intermediate  business
     for approximately  $15 million.  The Company received $7.5 million upon the
     closing  of the  transaction,  and will  receive  future  royalties  with a
     present value not  exceeding  $7.5 million,  with certain  minimum  royalty
     payments  in the third  through  sixth year  following  the  closing of the
     transaction.  Included  in the  transaction  are the  rights  to  Celgene's
     enzymatic  technology for the production of chirally pure intermediates for
     the pharmaceutical industry,

          Township,  New Jersey.  The current lease term for the main laboratory
          and office space expires in 2002 and has one five-year renewal option.
          Annual  payments are $330,000.  The lease  provides that at the end of
          each five-year  term, the rent will be increased based upon the change

          greater than 20%.  Celgene is also required to pay additional  amounts
          for real  estate  taxes,  utilities,  and  maintenance.  Total  rental
          expense amounted to $477,000,  $486,000 and $479,000 in 1997, 1998 and

          The related  outstanding  commitment  for 2000 is  approximately  $1.3
          million.  Employment contracts provide for an increase in compensation
          reflecting annual reviews and related salary adjustments.

     (C)  CONTRACTS

          Pursuant to the terms of a research and development agreement with The
          Rockefeller  University,  the Company has purchased for cash and stock
          options the world-wide exclusive license to manufacture and market any
          drugs,  including  Thalomid,   which  may  result  from  the  research
          performed at Rockefeller and funded by the Company. The portion of the
          agreement  that  provides  for  research   services  to  be  performed
          byRockefeller  is renewable for one year terms upon  agreement of both
          parties. Under terms of the current research agreement extension,  the
          Company  is  committed  to  pay  Rockefeller   $504,000  annually  for
          research.

          The Company has an agreement with Penn  Pharmaceutical,  Ltd. of Great
          Britain  ("Penn") for the  production of Thalomid.  Penn  manufactures
          Thalomid and sells it  exclusively  to the Company.  The  agreement is
          renewable  for one year  terms  and has been  renewed  for  2000,  for
          facility payments totaling approximately $480,000.

          In October  1997,  the  Company  entered  into a contract  with Boston
          University to manage the  surveillance  registry  which is intended to
          monitor  compliance to the  requirements  of the Company's  S.T.E.P.S.
          (System for THALOMID Education and Prescribing Safety) program for all
          Thalomid  patients.  The contract has been renewed for 2000. Under the
          terms of the agreement  quarterly  payments of approximately  $395,000
          are  required.  The  contract  is  renewable  for one year  terms upon
          agreement of both parties.

          In December 1997, the Company  entered into a research  agreement with
          the  University  of Glasgow for  clinical  testing and  evaluation  of
          certain of Celgene's patented compounds. Under terms of the agreement,
          the Company agreed to pay the University approximately $200,000 in two
          annual  installments.  The term of the original  agreement was for two
          years and has been extended through 2000.

          In June 1998,  the Company  entered into a research  agreement  with a
          contract  research  organization to manage the pivotal  clinical trial
