              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Operations and Basis of Presentation

    LeukoSite, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on May 1, 1992. The Company
    is a biotechnology company developing proprietary monoclonal antibody and
    small molecule drugs to treat patients with cancer and inflammatory,
    autoimmune and viral diseases.

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
    been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
    Securities and Exchange Commission and include, in the opinion of
    management, all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments,
    necessary for a fair presentation of interim period results. Certain
    information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
    statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
    regulations. The Company believes, however, that its disclosures are
    adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results for
    the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to
    be expected for the full fiscal year. These condensed consolidated
    financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
    consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto included in
    the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
    December 31, 1998 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

    (b) Net Loss per Common Share

     Basic net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of
    common shares outstanding. For the three and six month periods ended
    September 30, 1998 and 1999 diluted net loss per common share is the same as
    basic net loss per common share as the inclusion of 340,699, 1,010,483,
    386,943, and 715,197 weighted average shares of common stock issuable upon
    exercise of stock options and warrants would be antidilutive for the three
    months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 and nine months ended September
    30, 1998 and 1999 respectively.

3.  ILEX Joint Venture

    In May 1997 the Company and ILEX Oncology, Inc. (ILEX) entered into a joint
    venture agreement that established L&I Partners, LP ("L&I") for the purpose
    of developing CAMPATH(R). Under the terms of the partnership, the Company is
    required to fund 50% of the partnership's working capital requirements. The
    joint venture expires in 2017. Should either party fail to fulfill its
    funding obligations, control of the joint venture may change.

    The Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture under the
    equity method of accounting and records its share of the income or loss in
    other income (expense). The Company is reimbursed by the joint venture for
    certain costs incurred on behalf of the joint venture and has included such
    reimbursements in revenues. The joint venture has sublicensed the rights to
    CAMPATH(R) from the Company. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999
    the joint venture's recorded loss was $7,799,726. For the nine months ended
    September 30, 1999 the Company's share of the joint venture's recorded loss
    was $3,899,863 and the Company's obligation to fund the joint venture as of
    September 30, 1999 was $826,702. The Company charged the joint venture
    $2,661,606 for costs incurred on its behalf for the nine months ended
    September 30, 1999.

4.  Acquisitions

     (a) CytoMed, Inc.

     In February 11, 1999 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
     capital stock of CytoMed, Inc. ("CytoMed") through the issuance of 935,625
     shares of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value
     $.01 per share, to CytoMed shareholders. The Series A Convertible Preferred
     Stock automatically converted into common stock on a one-for-one basis upon
     the required approval by the Company's shareholders at the annual meeting
     held May 25, 1999. The Company may issue another 631,313 common shares to
     CytoMed shareholders upon receipt of a $6,000,000 payment to CytoMed from
     UCB Pharma. In addition, CytoMed shareholders may receive up to
     $23,000,000 in cash and up to an additional 84,000 shares of the Company's
     common shares upon the achievement of milestones related to certain
     CytoMed product candidates.

     The merger was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with the
     requirements of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No.16, Business
     Combinations, and accordingly CytoMed's results of operations are included
     in those of the Company beginning on the date of the acquisition. The total
     purchase price, including transaction costs, was approximately $16,100,000.
     The total purchase price was allocated to the fair value of the assets
     acquired and liabilities assumed including an allocation to in-process
     research and development of $1,588,612. The nature of the efforts to
     develop the purchased in-process technologies into commercially viable
     products principally relate to the completion of all development, testing,
     and high-volume

                                       8

<PAGE>

      manufacturing activities that are necessary to establish that the
      products can be produced to meet its design specifications and are
      proven to be safe and effective for their respective indications. As of
      the acquisition date, technological feasibility of the compounds in
      development had not been established and the technologies have no
      alternative future uses. If these projects are not successfully
      developed, the Company will not realize the value assigned to the
      in-process research and development, therefore the value of the
      in-process research and development was charged to operations in the
      current period.

     Total consideration allocated to the fair market value of assets acquired
     and liabilities assumed on the purchase date is as follows:

       The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of
       operations information has been prepared to give effect to the merger as
       if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the periods
       presented. In October 1998 CytoMed sold to UCB Pharma assets relating to
       certain research programs. CytoMed's historical results of operations
       included in the following pro forma information have been adjusted to
       reflect the revenues and expenses related to the remaining research
       programs acquired by the Company. The historical results of operations
       have been adjusted to reflect (i) elimination of the one-time charge to
       operations for the purchase of acquired in-process research and
       development and (ii) reduction of interest income resulting from use of
       $480,000 for transaction costs at an annual interest rate of 5.47%.

        (b) ProScript, Inc.

        On July 19, 1999 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
        capital stock of ProScript, Inc. ("ProScript") by payment of $411,719 in
        cash to ProScript shareholders and through the issuance of 187,970

        additional cash payments upon the achievement of certain milestones and
        royalties related to certain ProScript compounds and related to a
        ProScript research collaboration with Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc.

        The merger was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with the
        requirements of APB Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations, and
        accordingly ProScript's results of operations have been included in
        those of the Company beginning on the date of the acquisition. The total
        purchase price was approximately $2,800,000. The total purchase price

5.  Private Placement

    On July 20, 1999 the Company completed a private placement of 1,487,548
    shares of its common stock for total net proceeds of $14.2 million after
    expenses of the offering. LeukoSite will register these shares and use its
    best efforts to keep the registration statement effective for two years, or
    until all shares are sold under the registration statement, whichever
    comes first.


6.  Schering AG Agreement

    In August 1999 the Company and ILEX, through L&I, and Schering AG entered
    into a distribution and development agreement which grants Schering AG
    exclusive marketing and distribution rights to CAMPATH(R) in the U.S.,
    Europe and rest of the world except Japan and East Asia, where the Company
    and ILEX have retained rights.

    In the United States, Berlex Laboratories, Inc., Schering's U.S. affiliate,
    the Company and ILEX will share in the profits from the sale of CAMPATH(R).
    On sales made in the rest of the territory, Schering AG will pay royalties
    equivalent to the rate of profit sharing expected in the U.S. Under



                                       10
<PAGE>

    the terms of the agreement, Schering will make payments of up to $30 million
    for rights to CAMPATH(R) upon the achievement of certain regulatory
    milestones. The Company and ILEX currently intend to use these funds to pay
    for ongoing development activity.

    As of September 30, 1999 L&I has received $5 million in funding and this
    amount is included in the joint venture's total liabilities.

7.  Subsequent Events

    the Company announced the signing of a merger agreement pursuant to
    which Millennium would acquire the Company in a stock for stock
    exchange. If this transaction closes, the Company expects that
    Millennium will issue approximately 6,577,110 shares of common
    stock to the Company's stockholders, and options, rights and warrants to
    purchase approximately 1,023,068 shares of Millennium common
    stock to the holders of the Company's options, rights and warrants.
    The transaction is subject to, among other things, the approval of the
    Company's stockholders as well as antitrust clearance under the
    Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act.

OVERVIEW

LeukoSite, Inc. is a biotechnology company developing proprietary monoclonal
antibody and small molecule drugs to treat patients with cancer and
inflammatory, autoimmune and viral diseases. The Company has been funded to date
primarily through proceeds from the sale of equity securities and funding from
collaboration agreements. To date, the Company has not received any revenue from
the sale of products. The Company has experienced operating losses since its
inception and expects that the activities required to develop and commercialize
its products will result in further operating losses for the next several years.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $68.6 million.

In October 1999 the Company and Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. signed a
definitive merger agreement for Millennium to acquire the Company in a
stock-for-stock exchange. If this transaction closes, the Company's
shareholders will receive 0.4296 shares of newly issued Millennium common
stock in exchange for each share of Company common stock.

In 1994, 1995 and 1996, the Company signed agreements with Warner-Lambert for
the discovery and development of drugs that are intended to antagonize the
MCP-1, IL-8 and CCR5 and CXCR4 receptors found on certain classes of leukocytes.
In December 1998 the Company and Warner-Lambert signed an agreement related to
the (ALPHA)4(BETA)7 and (ALPHA)E(BETA)7 integrin targets implicated in asthma
and inflammatory bowel disease. In July 1996 the Company signed an agreement
with Roche Bioscience for the discovery and development of monoclonal antibodies
and small molecule antagonists to the CCR3 receptor found on a certain class of
leukocytes. In April 1997 the Company signed an agreement with Kyowa for the
discovery and development of small molecule antagonists to the CXCR3 and CCR1
receptors found on certain classes of leukocytes. In May 1997 the Company
entered into a joint venture with ILEX for the development of CAMPATH(R) for the
treatment of chronic lymphocyctic leukemia. In August 1999 L&I entered into a
distribution and development agreement which grants Schering AG exclusive
marketing and distribution rights to CAMPATH(R) in the U.S., Europe and rest of
the world except Japan and East Asia, where the Company and ILEX have retained
rights. In October 1997 the Company, Warner-Lambert and Kyowa agreed to jointly
pursue research and development of antagonists that target MCP-1, IL-8, CCR1 and
CXCR3. In December 1997 the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with
Genentech for the development of a monoclonal antibody intended as therapy for
inflammatory bowel disease. In August 1998 the Company entered into a
collaboration agreement with MorphoSys AG for the discovery of therapeutic
monoclonal antibodies for inflammatory and autoimmune disorders.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since its inception, the Company's operations have been funded primarily through
proceeds from the sale of equity securities, which have raised approximately
$78.8 million, and to a lesser extent license fees and sponsored research, which
have generated approximately $27.6 million, and capital lease obligations, which
have generated approximately $5.4 million. The Company has used cash to fund
operating losses of approximately $68 million, the investment of approximately
$4.5 million in equipment and leasehold improvements and the repayment of
approximately $4.3 million of capital lease obligations. The Company had no
significant commitments as of September 30, 1999 for capital expenditures. At
September 30, 1999 the Company had on hand cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities of approximately $27 million.

As of September 30, 1999 other current assets were approximately $6.9 million.
Included in other current assets is a current receivable of $6 million due to
CytoMed from UCB Pharma which is expected to be paid in November 1999.

The Company has entered into sponsored research and consulting agreements with
certain hospitals, academic institutions and consultants, requiring periodic
payments by the Company. Aggregate minimum funding obligations under these
agreements, which include certain cancellation provisions, total approximately
$1.5 million, of which approximately $1.1 million will be paid in 1999. The
Company also has a remaining total commitment to the Therapeutic Antibody Centre
at the University of Oxford in England to provide funding of $250,000 in
semi-annual installments through the year 1999.

In May 1997 the Company and ILEX entered into a joint venture whereby the
parties formed a limited partnership to develop CAMPATH(R) for the treatment
of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and other diseases. The Company and ILEX are
required to make contributions each time the joint venture requires working
capital. In August 1999 the Company and ILEX, through their joint venture L&I
Partners, LP, and Schering AG entered into a distribution and development
agreement which grants Schering AG exclusive marketing and distribution
rights to CAMPATH(R) in the U.S., Europe and the rest of the world except
Japan and East Asia, where the Company and ILEX have retained rights. In the
United States, the Company, Berlex, and ILEX will share equally in the
profits from the sales of CAMPATH(R). On sales made in the rest of the
territory, Schering AG will pay royalties expected to be equivalent to the
rate of profit sharing expected in the U.S. Schering will make payments of up
to $30 million for rights to CAMPATH(R) and for the achievement of certain
regulatory milestones in CLL.

On February 11, 1999 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of CytoMed. The total purchase price was approximately $16.1
million and the net assets acquired were approximately $14.5 million of which
approximately $8.5 million was cash and $6 million was a receivable from UCB
Pharma expected to be paid in November 1999.

On July 19, 1999 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of ProScript for approximately $2.8 million in cash and stock.

On July 20, 1999 the Company complete a private placement of 1,487,548 shares of
its common stock for total net proceeds of approximately $14.2 million after
expenses of the offering.

The Company believes that its existing capital resources, interest income and
revenue from the collaboration agreements will be sufficient to fund its planned
operating expenses and capital requirements into 2001. However, there can be no
assurance that such funds will be sufficient to meet the Company's operating
expenses and capital requirements during such period. The Company's actual cash
requirements may vary materially from those now planned and will depend upon




                                       15
<PAGE>

numerous factors, including the results of the Company's research and
development and collaboration programs, the timing and results of preclinical
and clinical trials, the timing and costs of obtaining regulatory approvals, the
progress of the milestone and royalty producing activities of the Company's
collaborative partners, the level of resources that the Company commits to the
development of manufacturing, marketing, and sales capabilities, the cost of
filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and other
intellectual property rights, the ability of the Company to maintain existing
and establish new collaboration agreements with other companies, the
technological advances and activities of competitors and other factors.

The Company expects to incur substantial additional expenses, including expenses
related to ongoing research and development activities, expenditures for
preclinical and clinical trials, commercialization of CAMPATH(R), and the
expansion of its laboratory and administrative activities. Therefore, the
Company will need to raise substantial additional capital. The Company intends
to seek such additional funding through public or private financing or
collaboration or other arrangements with collaborative partners. There can be no
assurance, however, that additional financing will be available from any sources
or, if available, will be available on acceptable terms.

In October 1999 the Company and Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. signed a
definitive merger agreement for Millennium to acquire the Company in a
stock-for-stock exchange. If this transaction closes, the Company's
shareholders will receive 0.4296 shares of newly issued Millennium common
stock in exchange for each share of Company common stock.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

The Company is reviewing its information systems to assess what steps are
required to achieve full Year 2000 compliance. The Company relies upon
microprocessor-based personal computers and commercially available applications
software. The Company is currently discussing Year 2000 readiness with its
supply and service vendors. The Company intends to continue to assess its
exposure to Year 2000 noncompliance on the part of any of its vendors and there
can be no assurance that their systems will be Year 2000 compliant. The Company
does not anticipate that it will incur material expenses to make its internal
computer software and operating systems Year 2000 compliant. The Company
believes that the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant problems for the
Company's systems. The Company currently does not have any contingency plan in
the event Year 2000 compliance cannot be achieved in a timely manner.

ITEM 3.           QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.


The Company owns financial instruments that are sensitive to market risks as
part of its investment portfolio. The investment portfolio is used to preserve
the Company's capital until it is required to fund operations, including the
Company's research and development activities. All of these market-risk
sensitive instruments are classified as held-to-maturity and are not held for
trading purposes. The Company does not own derivative financial instruments in
its investment portfolio. The investment portfolio contains instruments that are
subject to the risk of a decline in interest rates.

Interest Rate Risk-The Company's investment portfolio includes investment grade
debt instruments. These bonds are subject to interest rate risk, and could
decline in value if interest rates fluctuate. Due to the short duration and
conservative nature of these instruments, the Company does not believe that it
has a material exposure to interest rate risk.
