ITEM 3:  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS

Pursuant to the terms of a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement between Genentech
and IDEC dated March 16, 1995 (the "Purchase Agreement"), a copy of which was
attached as Exhibit B to the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on March 27, 1995 (the "Original Schedule 13D"), Genentech agreed to
purchase up to six subseries of IDEC's Series A Preferred Stock. The six
subseries of Series A Preferred Stock issuable pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the "Convertible Preferred Stock."

On May 9, 1996 Genentech and IDEC entered into the Acceleration Agreement which
is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the Acceleration Agreement). Among other
things, under the terms of the Acceleration Agreement, Genentech purchased
100,000 shares of IDEC's Series A-6 Preferred Stock at $75.00 per share of
Series A-6 Preferred Stock. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Genentech
was originally scheduled to purchase the Series A-6 shares upon the public
presentation of complete Phase III clinical results for IDEC's C2B8 product. As
described in IDEC's Certificate of Determination of Preferences, each share of
Series A-6 Preferred Stock will be convertible into a number of shares of IDEC
Common Stock based upon a weighted average trading price of IDEC's Common Stock
for the 20 trading days following the earlier to occur of (i) marketing approval
of IDEC's C2B8 by the U.S. FDA, or (ii) September 16, 1999. The total purchase
price of $7,500,000 for the Series A-6 Preferred Stock was paid from Genentech's
working capital.

Under the terms of the Acceleration Agreement, IDEC and Genentech amended the
terms of the Option Agreement between Genentech and IDEC dated as of March 16,
1995 (the "Option Agreement"), a copy of which was attached to the Original
Schedule 13D as Exhibit C, to provide that under certain circumstances IDEC
would only cause Genentech to issue a $10,000,000 promissory note which may be
repaid by IDEC or, upon the occurrence of future events, be convertible into
shares of IDEC's Common Stock at market prices prevailing at the time of
conversion. If issued, the note will accrue interest at the prime rate plus two
percent. IDEC formerly had an option under the Option Agreement to cause
Genentech to purchase shares of IDEC's Series A-7 Preferred Stock.

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, on April 4, 1995, Genentech purchased
100,000 shares of IDEC's Series A-1 Preferred Stock (initially convertible into
1,000,000 shares of IDEC Common Stock) for $50.00 per share of Series A-1
Preferred Stock. The total purchase

price of $5,000,000 for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock was paid from Genentech's
working capital. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, on August 22, 1995,
Genentech purchased 37,521 shares of IDEC's Series A-2 Preferred Stock
(initially convertible into 375,210 shares of IDEC Common Stock) for $66.63 per
share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock. The total purchase price of $2,500,000 for
the Series A-2 Preferred Stock was paid from Genentech's working capital. Under
the terms of the Purchase Agreement, on March 15, 1996, Genentech purchased
22,993 shares of IDEC's Series A-3 Preferred Stock (initially convertible into
229,930 shares of IDEC Common Stock) for $217.46 per share of Series A-3
Preferred Stock. The total purchase price of $5,000,000 for the Series A-3
Preferred Stock was paid from Genentech's working capital.

Each share of Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of
Genentech, into shares of IDEC's Common Stock at predetermined rates described
in IDEC's Certificate of Determination and will not have voting rights until
converted into shares of IDEC Common Stock. Each share of Convertible Preferred
Stock also will automatically convert into shares of IDEC's Common Stock at
predetermined rates described in the Certificate of Determination upon transfer
of ownership to a third party unaffiliated with Genentech. Under the 1995
Registration Rights Agreement, IDEC, at Genentech's request, will file resale
registration statements covering certain of the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

Genentech and IDEC also entered into a Collaboration Agreement dated as of March
16, 1995, as amended, and an Expression Technology License dated as of March 16,
1995. Under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, Genentech and IDEC will
collaborate in the development of C2B8 for the treatment in humans of
non-Hodgkins B Cell Lymphoma in the United States and Canada. The two companies
will co-promote C2B8 for the treatment in humans of non-Hodgkins B Cell Lymphoma
in the United States and Canada, and share profits from its commercialization.
IDEC also granted Genentech exclusive marketing rights to all other markets
outside the United States and Canada, and IDEC will receive a royalty on sales
in such markets. Genentech has sublicensed its marketing rights in Japan to an
unrelated third party and has agreed to sublicense its marketing rights other
than in the United States and Japan to a related third party. Under the terms of
the Collaboration Agreement, IDEC has elected a representative of Genentech to
its Board of Directors. IDEC's obligation regarding the board seat shall
continue until certain events occur, including termination of the Collaboration
Agreement or Genentech holding less than the number of shares representing the
Common Stock equivalent of the shares of Series A-1 and Series A-2 Preferred
Stock, i.e., the equivalent of 1,375,210 shares of Common Stock. Under the terms
of the Expression Technology License, IDEC licensed its proprietary vector
technology for high expression of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells in
consideration for an up-front licensing fee and royalties on sales of Genentech
products manufactured using the technology.

ITEM 4:  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

         The purpose of the purchases of the shares of Convertible Preferred
Stock on May 9, 1996, March 15, 1996, August 22, 1995 and April 4, 1995 is
investment. Depending on its evaluation of IDEC's business, prospects, financial
condition, the market for IDEC securities, other opportunities available to
Genentech, general economic conditions, general market conditions, other future
developments and the contractual restrictions described in Items 3 and 6,
Genentech may decide to sell some or all of its investment in the capital stock
of IDEC through open market sales or in negotiated transactions, to or through
one or more broker dealers, or in underwritten offerings, block trades, agency
placements, brokerage transactions or otherwise. Depending on the same factors,
Genentech may in the future purchase additional capital stock of IDEC or enter
into hedging or similar transactions as described in Item 6.

         Except as described in Items 3 and 6 and the foregoing paragraph,
Genentech does not have any plan or proposal relating to, or which would result
in, any event described in (a) - (j) of the instructions to this Item 4.

         d.       Receipt of dividends, etc.:  Not applicable

         e.       Ownership below 5%:  Not applicable

ITEM 6: CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIP WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

To the best knowledge of the undersigned, except as described below and in Item
3, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal
or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any
person with respect to any securities of IDEC, including but not limited to
transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan
or option agreements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits
or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

Under the Standstill Agreement between the parties dated as of March 16, 1995
(the "Standstill Agreement"), a copy of which was attached to the Original
Schedule 13D as Exhibit D, Genentech and IDEC have agreed as follows:

                  1 .      Prior to March 16, 2001, Genentech will not acquire
any IDEC equity securities without the written consent of IDEC, except as
described in Item 3; and

                  2.       Prior to March 16, 2001, Genentech will not, without
the written consent of IDEC, make, directly or indirectly, any solicitation of
proxies from stockholders to vote (i) in any contest regarding the election of
directors of IDEC except to the extent necessary to maintain the election of one
director representing Genentech; or (ii) in any contest or on any proposition
regarding any business combination, restructuring, liquidation, sale of assets,
extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary transaction which (A) was
initiated by Genentech or any affiliate of Genentech, or (B) involves IDEC and
any third party or person controlled by, under common control with, controlling,
or otherwise affiliated with Genentech. The foregoing obligations terminate
earlier upon the occurrence of certain events described in the Standstill
Agreement.

(1)      On a Common Stock equivalent basis. As described in Item 3 above, this
figure does not include Common Stock equivalent shares relating to the 100,000
shares of Series A-6 Preferred Stock since the conversion rate is not
determinable at this time.

Subject to the contractual restrictions described above, Genentech may from time
to time enter into hedging transactions, including short sales and buying puts
and selling calls, for its own account or with broker-dealers and the
broker-dealers may engage in short sales of Common Stock of IDEC in the course
of hedging the positions they assume with Genentech. In connection with such
transactions, Genentech may also loan or pledge shares of Convertible Preferred
Stock to a broker-dealer. As described in Item 3 above, shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock automatically convert into shares of Common Stock upon transfer
of ownership to a third party unaffiliated with Genentech.

                              ACCELERATION AGREEMENT

         This Acceleration Agreement (the Agreement) is made and entered into
as of this 9th day of May, 1996 (the Effective Date) between IDEC
Pharmaceuticals Corporation, a California corporation (the Company) and
Genentech, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Buyer).

         WHEREAS, the Company and Buyer have entered into a Collaboration
Agreement (the Collaboration Agreement), a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement
(the Purchase Agreement) and an Option Agreement (the Option), each dated as of
March 16, 1995.

         WHEREAS, the Company and Buyer both desire to have Buyer accelerate the
acquisition of 100,000 shares of the Company's Series A-6 Preferred Stock (the
Third Purchase Shares) pursuant to Section 2(f) of the Purchase Agreement.

         WHEREAS, in consideration of Buyer's acceleration of the Third
Purchase, the Company is willing to agree to exercise its rights under the
Option, if at all, in the form of a subordinated note rather than as shares of
Series A-7 Preferred Stock and to make certain other agreements, all as
described below.

         NOW, THEREFORE, THE COMPANY AND BUYER AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

         1.       All Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the
meaning given them in the Collaboration Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, as
applicable.

         2.       The Company and Buyer agree that Buyer shall not be required
to purchase the Further Delayed Second Purchase Shares as described in Section
2(e) of the Purchase Agreement. The Company further agrees that it shall not
cancel, repurchase or redeem any shares of preferred stock or common stock owned
by Buyer or its affiliates under Section B.6 of the Certificate of Determination
of Preferences of Preferred Shares of the Company filed with the California
Secretary of State on March 28, 1995.

         3.       The Purchase Agreement shall be and hereby is amended to
provide that, in lieu of the Third Purchase as specified in Section 2(f) of the
Purchase Agreement, Buyer shall instead purchase the Third Purchase Shares (at
$75.00 per share) on May 9, 1996 (the Closing Date). On the Closing Date, the
Company will deliver to Buyer, stock certificates representing the Third
Purchase Shares against payment of $7,500,000 by wire transfer of immediately
available United States Dollars to such account of the Company as the Company
may specify in writing to Buyer not less than three (3) Business Days prior to
the Closing Date.

         4.       The Option shall be and hereby is amended as follows:

         a.       Sections 2 and 3 of the Option shall be amended to read as
                  follows:

2.       Investment. At any time after the Product License Application Filing
Event but before the FDA Review Event, the Company shall have the right (the Put
Right) to require Buyer to purchase for cash in the amount of Ten Million
Dollars ($10,000,000) (the Purchase Price) a subordinated note, in
substantially the form of Exhibit I hereto (the Note). The term Securities as
used herein shall refer to the Note.

3.       Closing.

         3.1      The closing of the purchase and sale of the Securities (the
Closing) shall take place, and payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, on
the thirtieth (30th) day following notice given in the manner provided in
Section 6 hereof by the Company of its intent to exercise the Put Right (the
Closing Date). The Closing shall take place at 10:00 A.M. Pacific Time on the
Closing Date at the offices of Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison at Two Embarcadero
Place, 2200 Geng Road, Palo Alto, California or at such other time or place as
the Company and Buyer may agree in writing.
