Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a list of Genentech's executive officers and

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 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."
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.
Under the terms of an Acceleration Agreement between Genentech and IDEC dated
May 9, 1996 (the "Acceleration Agreement"), a copy of which was attached as
Exhibit B to the Amended Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on May 21, 1996, Genentech purchased 100,000 shares of IDEC's Series
A-6 Preferred Stock at $75.00 per share of Series A-6 Preferred Stock. The total
purchase price of $7,500,000 for the Series A-6 Preferred Stock was paid from
Genentech's working capital. Each share of Series A-6 Preferred Stock became
convertible into 2.15653 shares of IDEC Common Stock on December 24, 1997, the
4
CUSIP No. 449370 10 5 Page 4 of 11
date that was 20 trading days following the date of marketing approval of IDEC's
C2B8 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
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 of Preferences (the "Certificate") 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 upon transfer of ownership to a third party unaffiliated with
Genentech. Under the 1995 Registration Rights Agreement between IDEC and
Genentech, 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 of 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
April 4, 1995, August 22, 1995, March 15, 1996 and May 9, 1996 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 public 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.

any third party or person controlled by, under common control with, controlling,

Subject to the contractual restrictions described above, Genentech may from time

broker-dealers may engage in short sales of Common Stock of IDEC in the course

Stock to a broker-dealer. Genentech has recently entered into the following
hedging transactions:
On December 11, 1997, in privately negotiated transactions, Genentech sold call
options covering an aggregate of 170,000 shares of IDEC Common Stock. The strike
price of the call option was $41.60 per share. The call options can only be

call option multiplied by (b) the positive amount, if any, determined by
subtracting the call option strike price from the market price per share of the
Common Stock on the expiration date (the "Market Price"). No payment would be

be made under the put options if the Market Price is greater than the put option
strike price on the expiration date.
