-Revenue and profitability would be severely impacted

•Company responded by determining to defend Howard Solomon and to contest the government

However, more director changes needed to successfully navigate imminent challenges

Director Reason to Replace

Howard Solomon • Length of tenure (47 years) leads us to believe a fresh perspective will benefit the company

• OIG-HHS may exclude him from participating in federal healthcare programs

• Multiple adverse civil, regulatory and legal decisions during tenure

• Responsible for company’s poor positioning and lack of adequate succession planning

Dan Goldwasser • Length of tenure (34 years) leads us to believe a fresh perspective will benefit the company

• No other recent public board experience

• No operational experience

Kenneth Goodman • Former reporting relationship to Chairman and CEO leads us to question his objectivity and independence

• No other recent public board experience

Lester Salans • No operational experience

• No other recent public board experience

Icahn nominees will provide fresh perspective, independence, operational expertise and highly relevant board experience

Forest Board Statement Facts

“Forest’s Board has carefully reviewed and considered Mr. Icahn’s nominees, and based on that analysis, we have concluded that his

four candidates are far less qualified than our slate…”

•Forest Board has not interviewed or even contacted any of our nominees to evaluate their abilities or qualifications

“Mr. Icahn’s nominees bring no operational experience whatsoever…”

•Alex Denner and Richard Mulligan have extensive operational experience

Denner and Mulligan drove substantial change at ImClone Systems across many dimensions

Partner Relations Cost Structure Product Pipeline Culture Litigation

• Recharged partner relations with BMY as relationship had deteriorated due to prior management neglect

• ImClone cost structure had not been appropriate for company needs

• Industry had poor perception of ImClone pipeline and R&D efforts

• ImClone morale poor due to lack of strategic direction from prior management

• Settled litigation including Yeda, Abbott and Repligen

• Initiated dialogue, ultimately leading to new agreement with BMY that expanded ERBITUX develop. budget with no change to ImClone economics

• Exec. Committee reallocated costs, shifting SG&A spending by expanding sales force for tactical reasons while reducing overhead costs

• Exec. Committee conducted top-down review of pipeline

• Took steps to institute a new culture through emphasis on cash flow, investment in R&D and increased responsibility to scientists/clinicians

• Removed substantial overhang from valuation of company

• From 2005 to 2007, ERBITUX sales grew by 37% annually

• Margin expansion and capex reduction led to substantial free cash flow growth

• Significantly increased investments in promising candidates such as 1121B, A12, 11F8 and others

• Cancelled programs with poor ROI

• Increased spending on R&D and sales force funded through savings on corporate costs

• Pipeline cited as major strategic rationale for whole company acquisition
