NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. PLAN DESCRIPTION
GENERAL
The Anika Therapeutics, Inc. Employee Savings and Retirement Plan (the Plan),
established July 1, 1993 and as amended and restated effective January 1, 1998,
is a defined contribution plan under which substantially all employees who are
at least age 21 and are regularly scheduled to perform 1,000 hours of service in
a Plan year, are eligible to participate. The Plan is intended to assist Anika
Therapeutics, Inc. (the Employer) in its efforts to attract and retain competent
employees. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974.
BENEFITS PAID
Benefits under the Plan are payable upon normal (after age 65) or early (after
age 55) retirement, death, disability, severe financial hardship or termination
of service, and are based on the balance in the participant's account.
Distributions of vested account balances will be made in the form of a single
lump-sum payment or in some other optional form of payment, as defined in the
Plan.
ADMINISTRATION
The Plan is administered by the Retirement Committee, which is appointed by the
Employer's Board of Directors (the Board). Two members of the Employer's senior
management have been appointed by the Board to serve as trustees of the Plan.
Information about the Plan agreement, such as provisions for allocations to
participants' accounts, vesting, benefits and withdrawals is contained in the
Summary Plan Description. Copies of this document are available from the
Retirement Committee. Retirement Alliance, Inc. has been appointed as record
keeper of the Plan.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
All investment-related expenses for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998
were charged against Plan earnings. Substantially all other expenses were paid
by the Employer.
F-3
<PAGE>
CONTRIBUTIONS
Participants may elect to defer, subject to certain limitations, from 1 percent
to 13 percent of annual compensation as contributions to the Plan. The Employer
makes matching contributions of 100% of each contributing participant's deferred
contribution up to 5% of each participant's salary. The Plan allows for the
Board to authorize additional contributions allocated to participants based on
salary. During the year ended December 31, 1999, there were no additional
contributions authorized.
VESTING
Participants employed prior to October 1, 1996 are 100 percent vested in their
entire account balance at all times. Participants employed on or after October
1, 1996 are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus actual
earnings thereon. Vesting in the employer matching contributions and profit
sharing contributions are based on years of credited service and are subject to
the following vesting schedule:
Years of Credited Vested
Service Interest
1 20%
2 40%
3 60%
4 80%
5 100%
The nonvested portion of a participant's account at the time of termination is
used to offset future Employer contributions.
PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Employer may terminate
the Plan at any time, either wholly or partially, by notice in writing to the
participants. Upon termination, participant accounts will become 100 percent
vested. The Employer may temporarily discontinue contributions to the Plan,
either wholly or partially, without terminating the Plan.

2. USE OF ESTIMATES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of additions to and deductions from the net assets
available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan are presented on the accrual
basis of accounting.
VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
MUTUAL FUNDS - The fair value of the participation units in mutual funds is
based on the quoted redemption value on the last business day of the year.
EMPLOYER COMMON STOCK - This investment consists of the Employer's common stock,
which is valued at the last reported sale price during the year as reported on
Nasdaq.
The fair value of individual investments that represent 5 percent or more of the
Plan's net assets available for benefits as of December 31, 1999 or 1998, are
summarized as follows:
1999 1998
----------------- -----------------
Employer common stock $402,361 $370,565

individually.
INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Each participant's account shall be allocated the investment income and expenses
of each fund based on the value of each participant's accounts in each fund, in
proportion to the total value of all accounts in each fund, taking into account
any contributions to or disbursements from the participant's account. General
expenses of the Plan not attributable to any particular fund shall be allocated
among participants' accounts in proportion to the value of each account, taking
into consideration the participant's contributions and distributions.

<PAGE>
PARTICIPANT LOANS
A participant may, with the approval of the trustees, borrow from his or her
own account a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of
$50,000 or 50 percent of the participant's vested account balance.
Participants may not have more than one loan outstanding at any time. Loans,
which are repayable biweekly over periods generally up to five years, are
collateralized by notes and by a security interest in the borrower's vested
account balance. The loans bear interest at the rate of prime plus 2 percent,
determined at the time the loan is approved.
4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on July 10, 1995, in which the
Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan was in compliance with the
applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been
amended and restated since receiving the determination letter. However, the
Plan's management believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
