STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in May 2004. The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on in-licensing, developing and
commercializing proprietary product candidates principally for use in the hospital setting. The Company&#146;s primary activities since incorporation have been conducting research and development activities, including clinical trials, of the product
candidates in its portfolio; organizational activities, including recruiting personnel and establishing office facilities; establishing the commercial manufacturing and sales infrastructure for
OFIRMEV<FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="1"><SUP STYLE="vertical-align:baseline; position:relative; bottom:.8ex">&#153;</SUP></FONT>(acetaminophen) injection; and raising capital to fund these activities. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In March 2006, the Company in-licensed the exclusive U.S. and Canadian rights to OFIRMEV, an intravenous formulation of
acetaminophen, from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (&#147;BMS&#148;). In May 2009, the Company submitted a New Drug Application (&#147;NDA&#148;) for OFIRMEV to the Food and Drug Administration (&#147;FDA&#148;) and on February&nbsp;10, 2010, received
a complete response letter from the FDA, which stated the NDA could not be approved due to deficiencies observed during the FDA&#146;s inspection of the facilities of the Company&#146;s third-party manufacturer. Following a meeting with FDA to
discuss the observations, the Company re-submitted the NDA for OFIRMEV on May&nbsp;4, 2010. On November 2, 2010 the FDA approved OFIRMEV for the treatment of pain and fever in adults and children. </FONT></P>

the rules&nbsp;and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;). In addition, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. In the opinion of the Company&#146;s management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim
periods presented have been included. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2009, as included in the Company&#146;s 2009
Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K filed with the SEC on March&nbsp;15, 2010. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Reclassifications

months ended September&nbsp;30, 2009 were each decreased $460,191 and sales and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2009 were each increased by a like amount. These reclassifications had no effect on net income

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company&#146;s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, restricted cash, an
option purchase right, equity securities of an unconsolidated privately-held entity, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and long-term debt. Fair value estimates of these instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market
information. These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities are generally considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The Company&#146;s option purchase right and equity securities of an unconsolidated
privately-held entity have been initially valued based upon the transaction price under the cost method of accounting. These assets are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. The
fair value of marketable securities is based upon market prices quoted on the last day of the fiscal period. </FONT></P>

and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. The valuation techniques included in the guidance are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while
unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions and are classified into the following fair value hierarchy: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) issued updated guidance on the milestone method of revenue recognition. This update provides guidance on defining a milestone and
determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. Under this guidance, to meet the definition of a substantive milestone, the consideration earned by achieving the
milestone should (1)&nbsp;be commensurate with either the level of effort required to achieve the milestone or the enhancement in the value of the item delivered, (2)&nbsp;relate solely to past performance, and (3)&nbsp;be reasonable relative to all
deliverables and payment terms in the arrangement. Further, no bifurcation of an individual milestone is allowed and there can be more than one milestone in an arrangement. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or
after June&nbsp;15, 2010. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance on July&nbsp;1, 2010, which did not have a material effect on its financial statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Net loss per share is presented as basic and diluted net loss per share. Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock
method. For purposes of this calculation, stock options, restricted stock units and warrants are considered to be common stock equivalents and are not included in the calculations of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Additionally, the restricted stock units outstanding during the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2010 and 2009, were excluded from the basic net loss calculation as these units do not include dividend rights and therefore are not
considered to be participating securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The actual net loss per share amounts for the three and nine
months ending September&nbsp;30, 2010 and 2009 were computed based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. The net loss per share for the periods presented includes the effect of the 12,039,794
common shares issued pursuant to a private placement in the first quarter of 2009. As a result of the issuance of these common shares, there is a lack of comparability in the basic and diluted net loss per share amounts for the nine month periods
presented. </FONT></P>

additional six months upon the payment of up to $5,000,000 to Incline. During the option periods, Incline will remain primarily responsible for the development of IONSYS. However, the Company and Incline have formed a joint development committee to
oversee the global development and regulatory approval for the IONSYS product candidate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company has
determined that Incline is a variable interest entity (&#147;VIE&#148;), however because it will not absorb a majority of Incline&#146;s expected losses or receive a majority of Incline&#146;s expected residual returns, the Company is not the
primary beneficiary of this entity at this time. Further, Cadence will have no oversight of the day-to-day operations of Incline, nor does it have sufficient rights or voting representation to influence the operating or financial decisions of
Incline. Additionally, the Company was not a founder of Incline and has no additional equity requirements in future financings or otherwise. Therefore, the Company is not required to consolidate Incline into its financial statements. This
consolidation status could change in the future if the option agreement is exercised, or if other changes occur in the relationship&nbsp;between the Company and Incline. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In consideration of the Company&#146;s expenditure of funds in connection with conducting due diligence on IONSYS, the
Company received $500,000 of Incline Series A preferred stock, or 500,000 shares,&nbsp;on terms generally consistent with Incline&#146;s other Series A preferred stock investors. The Company valued the transaction using the cost method, assigning
$500,000 to the preferred stock and $3,000,000 to the option. Under the cost method, the fair value of the investment is not estimated if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the
fair value of the investment. As of September&nbsp;30, 2010, the Company was not aware of any such adverse events. As a result, no fair value estimate has been prepared with respect to this investment as the costs associated with an independent
evaluation would be excessive and the available information on which to base such an assessment is both limited and highly subjective. Both assets are recorded as other long-term assets on the Company&#146;s balance sheet at September&nbsp;30, 2010.
No similar assets were recorded at December&nbsp;31, 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In March 2009, the Company announced its decision to discontinue the development of its omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate. This decision was due to the failure of the Company&#146;s Phase III
clinical trial of omiganan pentahydrochloride to meet its primary endpoint and the Company&#146;s belief that the results of this clinical trial would not support an NDA submission. In connection with the discontinuation of the development of
omiganan pentahydrochloride, the Company implemented a corporate restructuring in order to reduce, and eventually eliminate, costs associated with the omiganan pentahydrochloride program, including the termination of 11 employees. The Company
recorded impairment charges in the fourth quarter of 2008 of $2,353,162 with respect to certain omiganan pentahydrochloride manufacturing equipment, based upon management estimates of the salvage value of the equipment at the time the impairment
charge was taken. Further, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $650,786 in the first quarter of 2009 for severance-related costs and the termination of contractual obligations, based upon management estimates of the termination costs at
the time they were recorded. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company recorded adjustments to the impairment charge taken on the
manufacturing equipment in 2009, reducing the charge by an aggregate $180,926 during 2009 as actual costs incurred in disposing of the assets were less than anticipated. Additionally, adjustments totaling $64,219 were recorded to the severance
obligation during 2009 and are included in the Company&#146;s &#147;Other&#148; operating expenses on the statement of operations. As of September&nbsp;30, 2010 and December&nbsp;31, 2009, no liability remained for severance-related costs and
termination of contractual obligations. </FONT></P>

Services Inc. (formerly known as Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services Inc.) (collectively, the &#147;lenders&#148;), to secure an additional $15,000,000 loan facility. In December 2007, the Company drew down $15,000,000 under the Second
Amendment in two separate draws of $5,000,000 and $10,000,000 with fixed interest rates of 7.83% and 7.74%, respectively, net of a $45,000 loan fee (the &#147;loan fee&#148;). In addition to the principal and interest, the Company was required to
pay $375,000 at the termination of the Second Amendment (the &#147;term loan final payment&#148;). In June 2010, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the &#147;Restated Agreement&#148;) with the same lenders.
The Restated Agreement amends and restates the Company&#146;s existing Agreement and provides the Company with a new $30,000,000 growth capital loan facility, available to the Company in two advances. The first advance of $20,000,000 was made in
conjunction with securing the facility in June 2010 at a fixed interest rate of 11.33%. The second advance of $10,000,000 was made available upon approval by the FDA of OFIRMEV on November 2, 2010. The interest rate for this drawdown will equal the
greater of (i)&nbsp;11.25% or (ii)&nbsp;the sum of (a)&nbsp;the one-month U.S. London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) reported in the Wall Street Journal three (3)&nbsp;Business Days prior to the drawdown date plus (b)&nbsp;10.98%. The Company paid an
upfront fee of $300,000 (the &#147;upfront fee&#148;) and will reimburse the lenders for their expenses incurred in initiating the loan. The Company will also be required to make a growth capital final payment equal to 6% of the total of the
advances received by the Company at the termination of the Restated Agreement. Further warrants, as described below, were issued as part of the transaction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT

initial term of five years and will automatically renew for consecutive one-year terms thereafter unless either party provides at least two-years&#146; prior written notice of termination to the other party. Pursuant to the terms of the Supply
Agreement, Baxter is entitled to receive development fees from the Company upon the completion of specified development activities, which the Company expenses as these costs are being incurred. During the three and nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2010, the Company paid Baxter approximately $754,500 in development fees. No development fees were paid during 2009. As of September&nbsp;30, 2010, the Company had paid Baxter an aggregate of approximately $2,454,500 in
development fees and currently does not believe it will be required to pay Baxter any additional development fees with respect to the expansion of the initial production line for OFIRMEV. In addition, Baxter will receive a set manufacturing fee

manufacturing facility and the purchase of equipment to be used by Baxter in the manufacturing of the finished drug product. Under the terms of the Supply Agreement, the amount of the letter of credit may be reduced on a quarterly basis following

the event the Company fails to perform its obligations to fund the specified facility improvements or equipment purchases. As of September&nbsp;30, 2010, the certificate of deposit, classified as restricted cash on the Company&#146;s balance sheets,

additional changes to their unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12&nbsp;months outside of the area of Section&nbsp;382/383. Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, future changes in the Company&#146;s unrecognized tax benefits will not
impact the Company&#146;s effective tax rate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

U.S., or approved in the U.S. but with significant commercial potential for proprietary new uses or formulations. In March 2006, we in-licensed the exclusive U.S. and Canadian rights to OFIRMEV<FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="1"><SUP
STYLE="vertical-align:baseline; position:relative; bottom:.8ex">&#153;</SUP></FONT> (acetaminophen) injection, or OFIRMEV, from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, or BMS, and in May 2009 we submitted a New Drug Application, or NDA, for OFIRMEV to the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. On February&nbsp;10, 2010, we received a complete response letter from the FDA, which stated the NDA could not be approved due to deficiencies observed during the FDA&#146;s inspection of the facilities of
our third-party manufacturer. Following a meeting with the FDA to discuss the observations, we re-submitted the NDA for OFIRMEV on May&nbsp;4, 2010. On November 2, 2010, the FDA approved OFIRMEV for the management of pain and fever in adults and
children. We plan to initiate commercial sales of this product in the first quarter of 2011. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We were

pre-commercialization manufacturing development activities, the establishment of our commercial infrastructure and general and administrative expenses. We expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future as we commence the

of our common stock at $9.00&nbsp;per share and received aggregate net proceeds of $7.5&nbsp;million (after underwriting discounts). In February 2008, we completed a registered direct offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement
under which we issued and sold 9.2&nbsp;million shares of common stock at $5.34 per share and received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $49.1 million (after offering costs). In February 2009, we raised additional funds by completing a private

proceeds of $86.2 million (after offering costs). Each warrant has a five-year term and is exercisable in cash or by net exercise for one share of common stock at a price of $7.84. As of September&nbsp;30, 2010, all of the warrants remain

preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP, requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often
as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The following accounting policies involve critical accounting estimates because they are particularly dependent on estimates and assumptions made by management about
matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made. In addition, while we have used our best estimates based on facts and circumstances available to us at the time, different estimates reasonably could have been used.
Changes in the accounting estimates we use are reasonably likely to occur from time to time, which may have a material impact on the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our most critical accounting estimates include our recognition of research and development expenses, which impacts
operating expenses and accrued liabilities; stock-based compensation which impacts operating expenses; and the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, which primarily impacts operating expenses when we impair assets or accelerate
depreciation. We also have other policies that we consider to be key accounting policies, such as our policies for deferred income tax assets and liabilities and our reserves for commitments and contingencies; however, these policies either do not
meet the definition of critical accounting estimates described above or are not currently material items in our financial statements. Additionally, as we have not yet initiated commercial operations for OFIRMEV, revenue recognition and inventory
valuation are not considered critical accounting policies; however, these policies will likely become key accounting policies in subsequent periods as we begin to commercialize our OFIRMEV product. </FONT></P>

carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant negative industry or economic trends, significant changes or planned changes in our use of the assets, technological
obsolescence, or other changes in circumstances which indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. If such an event occurs, we evaluate whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows attributable to the assets in
question is less than their carrying value. If this is the case, we recognize an impairment loss to the extent that carrying value exceeds fair value. Fair value is determined based on market prices or discounted cash flow analysis, depending on the
nature of the asset and the availability of market data. Any estimate of future cash flows is inherently uncertain. The factors we take into consideration in making estimates of future cash flows include product life cycles, pricing trends, future
capital needs, cost trends, product development costs, competitive factors and technology trends as they each affect cash inflows and outflows. If an asset is written down to fair value, that value becomes the asset&#146;s new carrying value and is
depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. </FONT></P>

2009 to 38 as of September&nbsp;30, 2010 in preparation for the commercial launch of OFIRMEV. This increase in personnel has significantly increased our salaries and personnel costs, including an additional $0.5 million of stock-based compensation

million advance has a fixed interest rate of 11.33% and is recorded net of a debt discount which, along with the term loan final payment and debt issuance costs, is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan. During the three

this product and filed an NDA in May 2009. Additionally, research and development spending on our omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate decreased $1.6 million in 2010 as compared to 2009 as we discontinued our development efforts for this
product candidate in March 2009 following the results of our Phase III clinical trial for this drug. Further, other supporting costs decreased $0.7 million during the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2010 period as compared to 2009, primarily

available when needed or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to us or our stockholders. The capital markets have experienced extreme volatility in recent years and the availability of credit has been adversely affected

provide funding to borrowers. Continued turbulence in the U.S. and international markets and economies may adversely affect our ability to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If these market conditions continue, they
may limit our ability to timely replace maturing liabilities and to access the capital markets to meet liquidity needs. Having insufficient funds may require us to delay, scale-back or eliminate some or all of our development programs or renegotiate
less favorable terms than we would otherwise choose. Failure to obtain adequate financing also may adversely affect our ability to operate as a going concern. Additionally, if we raise funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing

September&nbsp;30, 2010 our money market fund holdings did not hold auction rate securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Off-Balance

statements discuss matters that are not historical facts, and include, but are not limited to, discussions regarding our business, regulatory and commercialization strategies, growth strategy, competition, industry, regulatory environment, economic
conditions, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources and results of operations. In this Quarterly Report, for example, we make forward-looking statements regarding: our ability to successfully commercialize OFIRMEV; the market potential
for OFIRMEV, and our ability to compete within the market; our ability to complete future drawdowns under our loan facility; the potential for us to ultimately acquire Incline, the anticipated strategic benefit to us of any such acquisition, and the
likelihood that Incline will successfully develop and obtain regulatory approval from the FDA for IONSYS; and all financial estimates or projections related to our company. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements preceded by,
followed by or that otherwise include the words, &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;might,&#148; &#147;can,&#148; &#147;could,&#148; &#147;will,&#148; &#147;would,&#148;, &#147;should,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;continue,&#148;

we believe that the expectations reflected in this Quarterly Report are reasonable, the inclusion of any forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation that any of our plans will be achieved. Our actual results may differ from
those anticipated in our forward looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth below under the caption &#147;Part II, Item&nbsp;1A&nbsp;&#151;&nbsp;Risk Factors&#148; and the differences may be material. These risk
factors include, but are not limited to: our dependence on the success of the commercialization of OFIRMEV, our only product candidate; the potential that we will require substantial additional funding in order to effectively commercialize OFIRMEV,
as well as to exercise our option to acquire Incline and obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize IONSYS, and the risk that we may not be able to raise sufficient capital when needed, or at all; the risk that delays in commercially launching
OFIRMEV will enable competitors to further entrench their existing products or develop and bring new products to market before OFIRMEV; our ability to ensure adequate and continued supply of OFIRMEV to successfully launch commercial sales or meet
anticipated market demand; our ability to comply with the terms of our loan agreement; the potential for an event of default under the loan agreement, and the corresponding risk of acceleration of repayment and potential foreclosure on the assets
pledged to secure the line of credit; the impact of healthcare reform legislation; and other risks detailed below under Part II &#151; Item&nbsp;1A &#151; Risk Factors and in our periodic public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

holdings consisted of investments in money market funds, debt obligations for the U.S. government and municipalities, and commercial paper. These investments were made in accordance with an investment policy approved by our board of directors which
specifies the categories, allocations, and ratings of securities we may consider for investment. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive without
significantly increasing risk. Some of the financial instruments that we invest in could be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the value of the instruments to fluctuate. For example, if we
purchase a security that was issued with a fixed interest rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the value of that security will probably decline. To minimize this risk, we intend to maintain a portfolio which may include cash, cash
equivalents and investment securities available-for-sale in a variety of securities which may include money market funds, government and non-government debt securities and commercial paper, all with various maturity dates. Based on our current
investment portfolio, we do not believe that our results of operations would be materially impacted by an immediate change of 10% in interest rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT

contain excessive risk, we cannot provide absolute assurance that in the future our investments will not be subject to adverse changes in market value. All of our investments are held at fair value. The following table shows the fair value of our
cash equivalents and investments as of September&nbsp;30, 2010 (in thousands): </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

sale of pharmaceutical products, such as federal anti-kickback and false claims statutes. For example, the federal healthcare program anti-kickback statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting or
receiving remuneration to induce or in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering or arranging for the purchase, lease or order of any healthcare item or service reimbursable under Medicare, Medicaid or other federally financed healthcare programs.
This statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on the one hand and prescribers, purchasers and formulary managers on the other. Violations of the anti-kickback statute are punishable by imprisonment,
criminal fines, civil monetary penalties and exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs. Although there are a number of statutory exemptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting certain common activities from prosecution or other
regulatory sanctions, the exemptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly, and practices that involve remuneration intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do not qualify for an exemption or safe
harbor. Our practices may not in all cases meet all of the criteria for safe harbor protection from anti-kickback liability. </FONT></P>

inflating drug prices they report to pricing services, which in turn are used by the government to set Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates, and for allegedly providing free product to customers with the expectation that the customers would
bill federal programs for the product. In addition, certain marketing practices, including off-label promotion, may also violate false claims laws. The majority of states also have statutes or regulations similar to the federal anti-kickback law and
false claims laws, which apply to items and services reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs, or, in several states, apply regardless of the payor. Sanctions under these federal and state laws may include civil monetary penalties,

Regulatory authorities do, however, restrict communications by pharmaceutical companies on the subject of off-label use. If our promotional activities fail to comply with these regulations or guidelines, we may be subject to warnings from, or

taking effect over the next several years. For example, the act seeks to expand health care coverage to the uninsured through private health insurance reforms and an expansion of Medicaid. The act will also impose substantial costs on pharmaceutical
manufacturers, such as an increase in liability for rebates paid to Medicaid, new drug discounts that must be offered to certain enrollees in the Medicare prescription drug benefit, an annual fee imposed on all manufacturers of brand prescription
drugs in the United States, and an expansion of an existing program requiring pharmaceutical discounts to certain types of hospitals and federally subsidized clinics. The act also contains cost containment measures that could reduce reimbursement
levels for health care items and services generally, including pharmaceuticals. It also will require reporting and public disclosure of payments and other transfers of value provided by pharmaceutical companies to physicians and teaching hospitals.

Compliance with California and future federal or state electronic pedigree requirements may increase our operational expenses and impose significant administrative burdens. As a result of these and other new proposals, we may determine to change our

cases, imposing restrictions on the coverage of particular drugs. Many managed care organizations negotiate the price of medical services and products and develop formularies which establish pricing and reimbursement levels. Exclusion of a product
from a formulary can lead to its sharply reduced usage in the managed care organization&#146;s patient population. The process for obtaining coverage can be lengthy and costly, and we expect that it could take several months before a particular
payor initially reviews our product and makes a decision with respect to coverage. For example, third-party payors may require cost-benefit analysis data from us in order to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of OFIRMEV or any other product we might

differ from that required to obtain FDA approval. The regulatory approval process in other countries may include all of the risks detailed above regarding FDA approval in the U.S. as well as other risks. Regulatory approval in one country does not
ensure regulatory approval in another, but a failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approval in one country may have a negative effect on the regulatory process in others. Failure to obtain regulatory approval in other countries or any delay or

FDA,&nbsp;members of Congress, the Government Accountability Office, medical professionals and the general public have raised concerns about potential drug safety issues. These events have resulted in the withdrawal of drug products, revisions to
drug labeling that further limit use of the drug products and the establishment of risk management programs that may, for example, restrict distribution of drug products after approval. The Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007, or
FDAAA, grants significant expanded authority to the FDA, much of which is aimed at improving the safety of drug products before and after approval. In particular, the new law authorizes the FDA to, among other things, require post-approval studies
and clinical trials, mandate changes to drug labeling to reflect new safety information and require risk evaluation and mitigation strategies for certain drugs, including certain currently approved drugs. It also significantly expands the federal
government&#146;s clinical trial registry and results databank, which we expect will result in significantly increased government oversight of clinical trials. Under the FDAAA, companies that violate these and other provisions of the new law are
subject to substantial civil monetary penalties, among other regulatory, civil and criminal penalties. Data from clinical trials may receive greater scrutiny, particularly with respect to safety, which may make the FDA or other regulatory
authorities more likely to require additional preclinical studies or clinical trials. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In both domestic and foreign markets, our anticipated sales of OFIRMEV or any future products will depend in part upon
the availability of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors. Such third-party payors include government health programs such as Medicare, managed care providers, private health insurers and other organizations. In particular, many U.S.
hospitals receive a fixed reimbursement amount per procedure for certain surgeries and other treatment therapies they perform. Because this amount may not be based on the actual expenses the hospital incurs, hospitals may choose to use therapies
which are less expensive when compared to our product candidates. Accordingly, OFIRMEV or any other product candidates that we may in-license or acquire, if approved, will face competition from other therapies and drugs for these limited hospital
financial resources. We may need to conduct post-marketing studies in order to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of any future products to the satisfaction of hospitals, other target customers and their third-party payors. Such studies might
require us to commit a significant amount of management time and financial and other resources. Our future products might not ultimately be considered cost-effective. Adequate third-party coverage and reimbursement might not be available to enable

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Governments continue to propose and pass legislation designed to reduce the cost of healthcare. In some foreign markets,
such as Canada, the government controls the pricing of prescription pharmaceuticals. In these countries, pricing negotiated with governmental authorities can take six to 12&nbsp;months or longer after the receipt of regulatory marketing approval for
a product. In the U.S., we expect that there will be an increase in federal and state proposals to implement pricing controls for prescription drugs, and new legislation and regulations affecting the pricing of pharmaceuticals might change before
our product candidates are approved for marketing. For example, the U.S. Congress is considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals with an objective of ultimately reducing healthcare costs. Legislative and regulatory actions under
consideration in the U.S. include health care reform initiatives that could significantly alter the market for pharmaceuticals (such as private health insurance expansion, the creation of competing public health insurance plans, a variety of
proposals that would reduce government expenditures for prescription drugs to help finance healthcare reform, or the eventual transition of the U.S. multiple payer system to a single payer system). Other actions under consideration include proposals
for government intervention in pharmaceutical pricing, changes in government reimbursement, an accelerated approval process for &#147;follow-on&#148; biologics, legalization of commercial drug importation into the U.S., and involuntary approval of
medicines for over-the-counter, or OTC, use. Such legislation could result in the exclusion of OFIRMEV and any other product candidates we may license or acquire from coverage and reimbursement programs, or lower the prices we would receive for our
product candidates. Our revenues from the sale of OFIRMEV or any other approved products could be significantly reduced as a result of these cost containment measures and reforms, which would negatively impact our profitability. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The active ingredient in&nbsp;OFIRMEV is acetaminophen. Patent protection for the acetaminophen molecule itself in the
territories licensed to us, which include the U.S. and Canada, is not available. As a result, competitors who obtain the requisite regulatory approval can offer products with the same active ingredient as&nbsp;OFIRMEV so long as the competitors do
not infringe any process or formulation patents that we have in-licensed from BMS and its licensor, SCR Pharmatop. We are aware of a number of third-party patents in the U.S.&nbsp;that claim methods of making acetaminophen. If a supplier of the API
for our&nbsp;OFIRMEV product candidate is found to infringe any of these method patents covering acetaminophen, our supply of the API could be delayed and we may be required to locate an alternative supplier. We are also aware of several
U.S.&nbsp;and Canadian patents and patent applications covering various potential injectable formulations of acetaminophen as well as methods of making and using these potential formulations. For example, Injectapap, a liquid formulation of
acetaminophen for intramuscular injection, was approved by the FDA for the reduction of fever in adults in March&nbsp;1986, although it was subsequently withdrawn from the market by McNeil Pharmaceutical in July&nbsp;1986. </FONT></P>

competitors have sought to develop and may seek to market competing formulations that may not be covered by our licensed patents and patent applications. In addition, while a notice of allowance by the Canadian Patent Office was recently issued with
respect to one of the patent applications that we have in-licensed for Canada, another is currently being examined, and may ultimately issue with claims that cover less than the corresponding in-licensed U.S.&nbsp;patents, or simply not issue at
all. The commercial opportunity for OFIRMEV could be significantly harmed if competitors are able to develop an alternative formulation of acetaminophen outside the scope of our in-licensed patents. </FONT></P>

more third parties may challenge the patents covering OFIRMEV, which could result in the invalidation or unenforceability of some or all of the relevant patent claims. For example, if a third party files an Abbreviated New Drug Application, or ANDA,
for a generic drug product containing acetaminophen and relies in whole or in part on studies conducted by or for us, the third party will be required to certify to the FDA that either: (1)&nbsp;there is no patent information listed in the
FDA&#146;s Orange Book with respect to our NDA for OFIRMEV; (2)&nbsp;the patents listed in the Orange Book have expired; (3)&nbsp;the listed patents have not expired, but will expire on a particular date and approval is sought after patent
expiration; or (4)&nbsp;the listed patents are invalid or will not be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of the third-party&#146;s generic drug product. A certification that the new product will not infringe the Orange Book-listed patents for
OFIRMEV, or that such patents are invalid, is called a paragraph IV certification. If the third party submits a paragraph IV certification to the FDA, a notice of the paragraph IV certification must also be sent to us once the third-party&#146;s
ANDA is accepted for filing by the FDA. We may then initiate a lawsuit to defend the patents identified in the notice. The filing of a patent infringement lawsuit within 45&nbsp;days of receipt of the notice automatically prevents the FDA from
approving the third-party&#146;s ANDA until the earliest of 30&nbsp;months or the date on which the patent expires, the lawsuit is settled, or the court reaches a decision in the infringement lawsuit in favor of the third party, or such shorter or
longer period as the court may order because either party to the action failed to reasonably cooperate in expediting the action. If we do not file a patent infringement lawsuit within the required 45-day period, the third-party&#146;s ANDA will not
be subject to the 30-month stay. Litigation or other proceedings to enforce or defend intellectual property rights are often very complex in nature, may be very expensive and time-consuming, may divert our management&#146;s attention from our core

third-party challenge, we may have the opportunity to defend it. For a third-party challenge to the in-licensed BMS patents relating to&nbsp;OFIRMEV, BMS has the sole right to defend such challenge. If it chooses not to defend such challenge, we may

our development expenses decreased&nbsp;in 2009&nbsp;due to the completion of our clinical development program for OFIRMEV, and the discontinuation of our development program for our omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate. However, we
incurred increased pre-commercialization expenses during 2009 as we prepared for the potential market launch of OFIRMEV, and&nbsp;we expect to incur significant sales, marketing and outsourced manufacturing expenses, as well as expenses related to
the commercialization of this product. As a result, we expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing pharmaceutical products, we are

substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, these rules and regulations
make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a

tax credits that could be utilized annually in the future to offset taxable income. Any such annual limitation may significantly reduce the utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and research tax credits before they expire. In addition,
California and certain states have suspended use of net operating loss carryforwards for certain taxable years, and other states are considering similar measures. As a result, we may incur higher state income tax expense in the future. Depending on

realization of any of the risks described in these &#147;Risk Factors&#148; could have a dramatic and material adverse impact on the market price of our common stock. In addition, class action litigation has often been instituted against companies

offering continue to hold a substantial number of shares of our common stock that they may now be able to sell in the public market. Significant portions of these shares are held by a small number of stockholders. Sales by our current stockholders
of a substantial number of shares, or the expectation that such sales may occur, could significantly reduce the market price of our common stock. Moreover, the holders of a substantial number of shares of common stock may have rights, subject to
certain conditions, to require us to file registration statements to permit the resale of their shares in the public market or to include their shares in registration statements that we may file for ourselves or other stockholders. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%" ALIGN="justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For example, in May 2009, we completed the registration of 18,059,691 shares of our common stock in connection with a
financing transaction completed in February 2009.&nbsp;As a result, all of the shares currently outstanding may generally be freely sold in the public market, subject to volume and other limitations applicable to our affiliates. Additionally, in
September 2009, we filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, a registration statement for $100.0 million of debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, debt warrants and equity warrants, which was subsequently declared
effective by the SEC. We have also registered all common stock that we may issue under our employee benefits plans. As a result, these shares can be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, subject to restrictions under the securities laws.

of significant corporate transactions. The concentration of ownership may delay, prevent or deter a change in control of our company even when such a change may be in the best interests of all stockholders, could deprive our stockholders of an

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.
The Company
Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Delaware in May 2004. The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on in-licensing, developing and
commercializing proprietary product candidates principally for use in the hospital setting. The Company's primary activities since incorporation have been conducting research and development activities, including clinical trials, of the product
candidates in its portfolio; organizational activities, including recruiting personnel and establishing office facilities; establishing the commercial manufacturing and sales infrastructure for
OFIRMEV
™
(acetaminophen) injection; and raising capital to fund these activities.
In March 2006, the Company in-licensed the exclusive U.S. and Canadian rights to OFIRMEV, an intravenous formulation of
acetaminophen, from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS"). In May 2009, the Company submitted a New Drug Application ("NDA") for OFIRMEV to the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and on February 10, 2010, received
a complete response letter from the FDA, which stated the NDA could not be approved due to deficiencies observed during the FDA's inspection of the facilities of the Company's third-party manufacturer. Following a meeting with FDA to
discuss the observations, the Company re-submitted the NDA for OFIRMEV on May 4, 2010. On November 2, 2010 the FDA approved OFIRMEV for the treatment of pain and fever in adults and children.
Since the Company has not begun principal operations of commercializing OFIRMEV, the Company is considered to be a
development stage company.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). However, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In addition, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim
periods presented have been included. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as included in the Company's 2009
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 15, 2010.
Reclassifications
Where necessary, prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period
presentation. Reclassifications made to the 2009 financial statements include adjustments to reclassify certain expenses from research and development to sales and marketing. As a result, research and development expenses for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2009 were each decreased $460,191 and sales and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 were each increased by a like amount. These reclassifications had no effect on net income
or loss or stockholders' equity as previously reported.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock option awards.
Stock options are currently valued using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model on the date of grant. This option pricing model involves a number of estimates, including the expected lives of stock options, the Company's anticipated stock volatility and interest rates. The following table summarizes the
weighted average estimates the Company used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model during the periods presented, to determine the fair value of employee and non-employee director stock options granted during each period. There were no option
grants during the three months ended September 30, 2010:

Restricted stock units.
Restricted stock units ("RSUs") are valued based on the fair market value
of the Company's stock on the date of grant.
Compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards is
recognized using the straight-line method. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of awards that is ultimately expected to vest. Hence, the gross expense is reduced for estimated
forfeitures and adjusted for the probability of achieving performance criteria. The table below summarizes the total stock-based compensation expense included in the Company's statements of operations for the periods presented:

option purchase right, equity securities of an unconsolidated privately-held entity, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and long-term debt. Fair value estimates of these instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market
information. These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities are generally considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The Company's option purchase right and equity securities of an unconsolidated
privately-held entity have been initially valued based upon the transaction price under the cost method of accounting. These assets are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. The
fair value of marketable securities is based upon market prices quoted on the last day of the fiscal period.
Current accounting guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP,
and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. The valuation techniques included in the guidance are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while
unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions and are classified into the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 Inputs
–
Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 Inputs
–
Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived
valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 Inputs
–
Valuation derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued updated guidance on the milestone method of revenue recognition. This update provides guidance on defining a milestone and
determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. Under this guidance, to meet the definition of a substantive milestone, the consideration earned by achieving the
milestone should (1) be commensurate with either the level of effort required to achieve the milestone or the enhancement in the value of the item delivered, (2) relate solely to past performance, and (3) be reasonable relative to all
deliverables and payment terms in the arrangement. Further, no bifurcation of an individual milestone is allowed and there can be more than one milestone in an arrangement. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or
after June 15, 2010. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance on July 1, 2010, which did not have a material effect on its financial statements.
4.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is presented as basic and diluted net loss per share. Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock
method. For purposes of this calculation, stock options, restricted stock units and warrants are considered to be common stock equivalents and are not included in the calculations of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Additionally, the restricted stock units outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, were excluded from the basic net loss calculation as these units do not include dividend rights and therefore are not
considered to be participating securities.
The actual net loss per share amounts for the three and nine
months ending September 30, 2010 and 2009 were computed based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. The net loss per share for the periods presented includes the effect of the 12,039,794
common shares issued pursuant to a private placement in the first quarter of 2009. As a result of the issuance of these common shares, there is a lack of comparability in the basic and diluted net loss per share amounts for the nine month periods
presented.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Components of comprehensive income (loss)
include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on the changes in fair value of investments. These components are added, net of their related tax effect, to the reported net income (loss) to arrive at comprehensive
income (loss). The components of other comprehensive loss for the periods presented were as follows:

In
the second quarter of 2010, the Company modified the design of its planned second production line for OFIRMEV, resulting in the partial cancellation of a capital equipment order for which the Company has identified an alternative supplier. As a
result of the partial cancellation, the Company incurred a charge of $1,186,050 in the second quarter of 2010 to impair the costs accumulated in construction-in-process for the equipment. In the third quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a charge
of $335,481 to accrue for termination fees related to the cancellation. No other capital impairments were recorded during 2010. See Note 9 regarding capital impairment adjustments recorded during 2009.

Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. The Company
employs a methodology that reviews specific securities in evaluating potential impairment of its investments. In the event that the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, the Company evaluates, among other factors, the Company's intent
and ability to hold the investment and extent to which the fair value is less than cost; the financial health of and business outlook for the issuer; and operational and financing cash flow factors. During the nine months ended September 30,
2009, the Company impaired the balance of the Migenix, Inc. ("Migenix") common stock acquired as partial consideration from the Company's acquisition of the development and commercialization rights to the omiganan pentahydrochloride
product candidate $45,461 as the decrease in market value of the securities were considered to be other-than-temporary. The Company's Migenix common stock holdings had no value at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009,
respectively.

Investment in Incline
On June 21, 2010, the Company entered into an option agreement (the "Option Agreement") with Incline Therapeutics, Inc., a privately held specialty pharmaceutical company
("Incline"), pursuant to which the Company obtained an exclusive, irrevocable option to acquire Incline during two option periods, and has additional rights after the expiration of the second period. Incline is developing IONSYS™
(fentanyl iontophoretic transdermal system), an investigational product candidate intended to provide patient-controlled analgesia for adult inpatients requiring opioids following surgery.

Table of Contents
CADENCE PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
(Unaudited)
In
consideration for the option, the Company paid Incline a $3,500,000 upfront option fee and will pay Incline a second $3,500,000 fee upon the commencement of the second option period if the Company has not yet exercised its option to acquire Incline.
During the first option period, the Company may acquire Incline for an amount not to exceed $135,000,000. During the second option period, the Company may acquire Incline for an amount not to exceed $228,000,000, plus payment of an additional amount
not to exceed $57,000,000 upon FDA approval of IONSYS. The first option period, which commenced on June 21, 2010, extends through the later to occur of 12 months or the date on which Incline receives the second tranche of its Series A
financing. The second option period commences on the expiration of the first option period and extends until the earliest to occur of the date on which Incline submits a supplemental NDA for IONSYS to the FDA, the filing of an initial public
offering by Incline, or 42 months. The Company has an exclusive right of first negotiation to acquire Incline for the six-month period following the expiration of the second option period and may elect to extend the second option period for up to an
additional six months upon the payment of up to $5,000,000 to Incline. During the option periods, Incline will remain primarily responsible for the development of IONSYS. However, the Company and Incline have formed a joint development committee to
oversee the global development and regulatory approval for the IONSYS product candidate.
The Company has
determined that Incline is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), however because it will not absorb a majority of Incline's expected losses or receive a majority of Incline's expected residual returns, the Company is not the
primary beneficiary of this entity at this time. Further, Cadence will have no oversight of the day-to-day operations of Incline, nor does it have sufficient rights or voting representation to influence the operating or financial decisions of
Incline. Additionally, the Company was not a founder of Incline and has no additional equity requirements in future financings or otherwise. Therefore, the Company is not required to consolidate Incline into its financial statements. This
consolidation status could change in the future if the option agreement is exercised, or if other changes occur in the relationship between the Company and Incline.
In consideration of the Company's expenditure of funds in connection with conducting due diligence on IONSYS, the
Company received $500,000 of Incline Series A preferred stock, or 500,000 shares, on terms generally consistent with Incline's other Series A preferred stock investors. The Company valued the transaction using the cost method, assigning
$500,000 to the preferred stock and $3,000,000 to the option. Under the cost method, the fair value of the investment is not estimated if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the
fair value of the investment. As of September 30, 2010, the Company was not aware of any such adverse events. As a result, no fair value estimate has been prepared with respect to this investment as the costs associated with an independent
evaluation would be excessive and the available information on which to base such an assessment is both limited and highly subjective. Both assets are recorded as other long-term assets on the Company's balance sheet at September 30, 2010.
No similar assets were recorded at December 31, 2009.
9.
Omigard Restructuring Charges
In March 2009, the Company announced its decision to discontinue the development of its omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate. This decision was due to the failure of the Company's Phase III
clinical trial of omiganan pentahydrochloride to meet its primary endpoint and the Company's belief that the results of this clinical trial would not support an NDA submission. In connection with the discontinuation of the development of
omiganan pentahydrochloride, the Company implemented a corporate restructuring in order to reduce, and eventually eliminate, costs associated with the omiganan pentahydrochloride program, including the termination of 11 employees. The Company
recorded impairment charges in the fourth quarter of 2008 of $2,353,162 with respect to certain omiganan pentahydrochloride manufacturing equipment, based upon management estimates of the salvage value of the equipment at the time the impairment
charge was taken. Further, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $650,786 in the first quarter of 2009 for severance-related costs and the termination of contractual obligations, based upon management estimates of the termination costs at
the time they were recorded.
The Company recorded adjustments to the impairment charge taken on the
manufacturing equipment in 2009, reducing the charge by an aggregate $180,926 during 2009 as actual costs incurred in disposing of the assets were less than anticipated. Additionally, adjustments totaling $64,219 were recorded to the severance
obligation during 2009 and are included in the Company's "Other" operating expenses on the statement of operations. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, no liability remained for severance-related costs and
termination of contractual obligations.

Further, on May 8, 2009, the Company notified Migenix of the termination of the license
agreement for omiganan pentahydrochloride, and informed Solvay, S.A. ("Solvay") of its intention to terminate the long-term supply agreement and a related license agreement for the active ingredient in omiganan pentahydrochloride. The
termination of the long-term supply agreement and related license agreement became effective on July 7, 2009. No charges were incurred from the termination of these agreements.

Loan and Security Agreement
In February 2006, the Company entered into a $7,000,000 Loan and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") with Silicon Valley Bank and Oxford Finance Corporation to provide growth capital to the
Company. In June 2006, the Company drew down $7,000,000 under the Agreement at a fixed interest rate of 11.47%. In August 2006, the Company began making the first of six monthly interest-only payments on the $7,000,000 balance and in February 2007
began making equal monthly principal and interest payments. The Company made the final payment to retire the obligation in July 2009.
In November 2007, the Company amended the Agreement and entered into the Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Second Amendment") with the same parties and GE Business Financial
Services Inc. (formerly known as Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services Inc.) (collectively, the "lenders"), to secure an additional $15,000,000 loan facility. In December 2007, the Company drew down $15,000,000 under the Second
Amendment in two separate draws of $5,000,000 and $10,000,000 with fixed interest rates of 7.83% and 7.74%, respectively, net of a $45,000 loan fee (the "loan fee"). In addition to the principal and interest, the Company was required to
pay $375,000 at the termination of the Second Amendment (the "term loan final payment"). In June 2010, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the "Restated Agreement") with the same lenders.
The Restated Agreement amends and restates the Company's existing Agreement and provides the Company with a new $30,000,000 growth capital loan facility, available to the Company in two advances. The first advance of $20,000,000 was made in
conjunction with securing the facility in June 2010 at a fixed interest rate of 11.33%. The second advance of $10,000,000 was made available upon approval by the FDA of OFIRMEV on November 2, 2010. The interest rate for this drawdown will equal the
greater of (i) 11.25% or (ii) the sum of (a) the one-month U.S. London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) reported in the Wall Street Journal three (3) Business Days prior to the drawdown date plus (b) 10.98%. The Company paid an
upfront fee of $300,000 (the "upfront fee") and will reimburse the lenders for their expenses incurred in initiating the loan. The Company will also be required to make a growth capital final payment equal to 6% of the total of the
advances received by the Company at the termination of the Restated Agreement. Further warrants, as described below, were issued as part of the transaction.
In connection with the establishment of the $30,000,000 facility, the outstanding balance of the $15,000,000 facility was paid in full, including accrued interest, and the $375,000 term loan final
payment. Upon the repayment of the $15,000,000 facility, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $145,000 in the second quarter of 2010 to (i) fully amortize the balance of the loan discount and related issuance costs and (ii) fully
accrue the term loan final payment. The Company will make interest-only payments on the outstanding balance of the Restated Agreement through July 1, 2011, and subsequently make principal and interest payments to fully amortize the balance over
the remaining 30 month term.

The warrants issued and the upfront fees paid in connection with the Restated Agreement, have been recognized as a
discount on the loan issuance. The legal and related expenses have been recognized as debt issuance costs on the Company's balance sheet which, together with the warrants, upfront fee, growth capital final payment and fixed interest rate, will
be amortized to interest expense throughout the life of the loan using an effective interest rate of 15.8%. The loans are collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company (excluding intellectual property). Under the terms of the
Restated Agreement, the Company may be precluded from entering into certain financing and other transactions, including disposing of certain assets and paying dividends, and is subject to certain non-financial covenants and prepayment penalties.
Upon the occurrence of an event of default, including a Material Adverse Change (as defined in the Restated Agreement), the lenders may declare all outstanding amounts due and payable under the Agreement.
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the aggregate principal balance of the loans, net of the loan
discounts, included on the Company's balance sheets was $18,570,138 and $6,442,327, respectively.
Warrants
In connection with the Second Amendment, the Company issued six fully exercisable warrants to the lenders to purchase an aggregate of 50,331 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise
price of $12.67 per share, expiring November 30, 2014. The Company determined the fair value of these warrants to be $473,876, under the Black-Scholes valuation model using the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3.64%;
dividend yield of 0.0%; expected volatility of 70.0%; and a contractual term of seven years. As of September 30, 2010, all warrants related to the Second Amendment were outstanding.
In connection with the Restated Agreement, the Company issued three fully exercisable warrants to the lenders to purchase
an aggregate of 254,793 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $7.0645 per share, expiring June 18, 2017. The Company determined the relative fair value of these warrants to be $1,237,101, using the
Black-Scholes valuation model. The value of the warrants was recorded as a discount to the note payable, and will be amortized to interest expense over the expected term of the loan agreement. The warrants were valued using the following
assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 2.7%; dividend yield of 0.0%; expected volatility of 76.5%; and a contractual term of seven years. As of September 30, 2010, all warrants related to the Restated Agreement were outstanding.
11.
Commitments and Contingencies
Leases
In May 2006, the Company entered into a
six-year operating lease for 23,494 square feet of office space. The Company received certain tenant improvement allowances and rent abatement and has an option to extend the lease for five years following the expiration of the initial term.
Monthly rental payments are adjusted on an annual basis and the lease expires in September 2012. As security for the lease, a letter of credit in the initial amount of $1,581,130 was required by the landlord. The letter of credit is collateralized
by a certificate of deposit in the same amount that is classified as restricted cash in the Company's balance sheet. The required amount subject to the letter of credit and corresponding certificate of deposit may be reduced by 22% on each of
the first four anniversaries of the commencement of the lease. As of September 30, 2010, the letter of credit had been reduced by $1,391,392 in accordance with the agreement and the related restricted cash has been adjusted by a like amount.
The value of the letter of credit and corresponding certificate of deposit, classified as restricted cash on the Company's balance sheet at September 30, 2010 was $189,738.
In January 2007, the Company entered into a sublease agreement for a portion of its unused office space. The sublease
agreement expired in September 2009 and the Company has since recaptured the space to support its growth. Rent expense, net of sublease rent income, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $214,703 and $154,272, respectively.
Rent expense, net of sublease rent income, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $644,108 and $438,764, respectively. Since May 26, 2004 (inception) through September 30, 2010, the Company has incurred total net
rent expense of $3,418,815.

Corporate Credit Card
In 2009, the Company entered into a pledge agreement pursuant to the establishment of a corporate credit card program
whereby the Company pledged $150,000 in a certificate of deposit as collateral. These funds are therefore classified as restricted cash on the Company's balance sheet at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Supply Agreement
In July 2007, the Company entered into a development and supply agreement (the "Supply Agreement") with
Baxter Healthcare Corporation ("Baxter") for the completion of pre-commercialization manufacturing development activities and the manufacture of commercial supplies of the finished drug product for OFIRMEV. The Supply Agreement has an
initial term of five years and will automatically renew for consecutive one-year terms thereafter unless either party provides at least two-years' prior written notice of termination to the other party. Pursuant to the terms of the Supply
Agreement, Baxter is entitled to receive development fees from the Company upon the completion of specified development activities, which the Company expenses as these costs are being incurred. During the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2010, the Company paid Baxter approximately $754,500 in development fees. No development fees were paid during 2009. As of September 30, 2010, the Company had paid Baxter an aggregate of approximately $2,454,500 in
development fees and currently does not believe it will be required to pay Baxter any additional development fees with respect to the expansion of the initial production line for OFIRMEV. In addition, Baxter will receive a set manufacturing fee
based on the amount of the finished OFIRMEV drug product produced, which prices may be adjusted by Baxter, subject to specified limitations. The Company is also obligated to purchase a minimum number of units each year following regulatory approval,
or pay Baxter an amount equal to the per-unit purchase price multiplied by the amount of the shortfall. Further, the Company is obligated to reimburse Baxter for all reasonable costs directly related to work performed by Baxter in support of any
change in the active pharmaceutical ingredient ("API") source or API manufacturing process.
The
Supply Agreement also requires the Company to fund specified improvements at Baxter's manufacturing facility and purchase certain equipment for use by Baxter in manufacturing OFIRMEV. As of September 30, 2010, the Company has reimbursed
Baxter approximately $5,545,300 of the facility improvements and has expensed the costs as they have been incurred. The equipment purchased for the manufacturing of OFIRMEV to which the Company retains title is being capitalized as it has
alternative future uses and will be amortized over the life of the equipment. At the time of termination, the Supply Agreement requires the Company to reimburse Baxter for all reasonable costs for the de-installation of the Company's equipment
and the restoration of Baxter's manufacturing facility to its pre-installation condition. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate the cost and the timing of these expenses at this time and therefore cannot reasonably estimate the fair
value of the retirement obligation.
In anticipation of the execution of the Supply Agreement, the Company
entered into an irrevocable standby letter of credit in favor of Baxter in January 2007. The letter of credit was for an initial amount of $3,268,000 and was based on anticipated costs to be incurred by Baxter for the improvements at Baxter's
manufacturing facility and the purchase of equipment to be used by Baxter in the manufacturing of the finished drug product. Under the terms of the Supply Agreement, the amount of the letter of credit may be reduced on a quarterly basis following
the execution of the Supply Agreement for the costs the Company has reimbursed Baxter to fund the specified facility improvements or equipment purchases. As of September 30, 2010, at the request of the Company and based upon the costs
reimbursed to Baxter by the Company, the letter of credit had been reduced by $2,268,000 to $1,000,000. The letter of credit in favor of Baxter is collateralized by a certificate of deposit which may be drawn down in part or in whole by Baxter in
the event the Company fails to perform its obligations to fund the specified facility improvements or equipment purchases. As of September 30, 2010, the certificate of deposit, classified as restricted cash on the Company's balance sheets,
had been reduced to $1,000,000 in accordance with the reduction in the letter of credit.

License Agreements and Acquired Development and Commercialization Rights
In March 2006, the Company in-licensed the technology and the exclusive development and commercialization rights to
OFIRMEV in the U.S. and Canada from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS"). BMS sublicensed these rights to the Company under a license agreement with SCR Pharmatop S.A. ("Pharmatop"). As consideration for the license, the Company
paid a $25,000,000 up-front fee, and may be required to make future milestone payments totaling up to $40,000,000 upon the achievement of various milestones related to regulatory and commercial events. These payments include a $15,000,000 payment
due in the fourth quarter of 2010 as a result of the approval of the Company's NDA for OFIRMEV and two milestone payments totaling up to $25,000,000 based on the achievement of certain levels of net sales. In addition, the Company is obligated
to pay a royalty on net sales of the licensed products and has the right to grant sublicenses to third parties. The amount of such royalty ranges from the mid-teens to the mid-twenties, depending on the aggregate amount of net sales. All payments
made to date related to the BMS agreement have been recognized as research and development expense.
As a
result of the discontinuation of the Company's omiganan pentahydrochloride development program, on May 8, 2009, the collaboration and license agreement between the Company and Migenix for this product candidate was terminated. No charges
were incurred from the termination of this agreement.
12.
Stockholder's Equity
Private Placement
In February 2009, the Company
issued 12,039,794 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $7.13 per share pursuant to a private placement. In addition to the shares of the Company's common stock, warrants to purchase up to 6,019,897 additional shares of the
Company's common stock were also issued as part of the transaction at a price of $0.125 per warrant. Each warrant is immediately exercisable and has a five-year term. The warrants may be exercised through either cash or net exercise for one
share of common stock at a price of $7.84 and have been accounted for as permanent equity. As of September 30, 2010, all warrants related to the private placement were outstanding.
The private placement raised proceeds, net of offering costs, of $86,242,720. The purchasers in the offering consisted of
new investors and existing stockholders of the Company, including six funds affiliated with three directors of the Company. In March 2009, we filed a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock acquired by the investors
in this offering, which was declared effective by the SEC in May 2009. The Company is required to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement and may be subject to liquidated damages of one percent per month of the aggregate purchase
price of the common shares then held by the investor that are registrable securities, subject to an aggregate cap of eight percent per calendar year. The Company has not recorded a liability for the potential damages associated with these liquidated
damages provisions, as it does not currently believe that the transfer of consideration is probable under the agreement.
Shelf Registration
On September 4, 2009, the
Company filed a universal shelf registration statement (the "Universal Shelf Registration Statement") to allow the Company to sell up to $100,000,000 of debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, debt warrants and equity warrants. The
Universal Shelf Registration Statement was subsequently declared effective on September 17, 2009 by the SEC. As of September 30, 2010, the Company has not sold any securities under this registration statement.
13.
Income Taxes
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. The Company's tax years for 2004 and forward are subject to examination by the Federal and California tax authorities
due to the carryforward of unutilized net operating losses and research and development credits. The Company's practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrued
interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in the Company's balance sheets at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and has recognized no interest and/or penalties in the Company's statements of operations for
the three or nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Further, as of September 30, 2010, the Company had not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits.

Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Sections 382 and 383, annual use of the Company's net operating
loss and research and development credit carryforwards may be limited in the event a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within a three-year period. The Company has not completed an IRC Section 382/383 analysis regarding the
limitation of net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards. Until this analysis has been completed, the Company has removed the deferred tax assets for net operating losses of approximately $69,631,000 and research and
development credits of approximately $5,043,000 generated through 2009 from its deferred tax asset schedule, and has recorded a corresponding decrease to its valuation allowance. When this analysis is finalized, the Company plans to update its
unrecognized tax benefits accordingly. The Company expects to begin the Section 382/383 analysis in the near future and will update the unrecognized tax benefits at the time the analysis is completed. The Company does not anticipate any
additional changes to their unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months outside of the area of Section 382/383. Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, future changes in the Company's unrecognized tax benefits will not
impact the Company's effective tax rate.
14.
Subsequent Events
On November 2, 2010, the Company received FDA approval for its OFIRMEV drug product. Pursuant to the terms of the Company's license agreement with BMS, the Company is required to make milestone
payments totaling $15,000,000 within 10 business days following the approval. As of the date of this filing, the Company had not yet paid this fee and it is not included in the financial results for the periods presented.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Introduction
This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements as a
result of many factors, including those set forth below under the caption "Risk Factors." The interim financial statements and this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, both of which are contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Overview
We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on in-licensing, developing and commercializing
proprietary product candidates principally for use in the hospital setting. We intend to build a leading franchise in the hospital setting, continuing to focus on products that are in late stages of development, currently commercialized outside the
U.S., or approved in the U.S. but with significant commercial potential for proprietary new uses or formulations. In March 2006, we in-licensed the exclusive U.S. and Canadian rights to OFIRMEV
™
(acetaminophen) injection, or OFIRMEV, from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, or BMS, and in May 2009 we submitted a New Drug Application, or NDA, for OFIRMEV to the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. On February 10, 2010, we received a complete response letter from the FDA, which stated the NDA could not be approved due to deficiencies observed during the FDA's inspection of the facilities of
our third-party manufacturer. Following a meeting with the FDA to discuss the observations, we re-submitted the NDA for OFIRMEV on May 4, 2010. On November 2, 2010, the FDA approved OFIRMEV for the management of pain and fever in adults and
children. We plan to initiate commercial sales of this product in the first quarter of 2011.
We were
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in May 2004. Our principal executive offices are located at 12481 High Bluff Drive, Suite 200, San Diego, California 92130 and our telephone number is (858) 436-1400. Information about the
company is also available on our website at www.cadencepharm.com, which includes links to reports we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, which are available free of charge. The contents of our website are not incorporated
by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We own or have rights to various
trademarks, copyrights and tradenames used in our business, including the following: Cadence
®
, OFIRMEV
™
and the OFIRMEV
™
logo. This report also contains trademarks of other companies, including IONSYS
™
a registered trademark of Incline Therapeutics, Inc., and Perfalgan
®
, a trademark of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.
Background
We were incorporated in May 2004 and
during that year we focused on hiring our management team and initial operating employees, but substantial operations did not commence until September 2004. Since that time, we have in-licensed rights to two late-stage product candidates.
OFIRMEV
™
(Acetaminophen) Injection
In March 2006, we in-licensed rights to OFIRMEV from BMS, which currently markets the product in Europe and several other markets under the brand name Perfalgan
®
. In October 2006, we initiated our Phase III clinical development program for this product for the management of
pain and reduction of fever in adults and children. In May 2009, we completed our clinical development program for OFIRMEV and submitted an NDA to the FDA, requesting marketing approval of OFIRMEV for the management of pain and reduction of fever in
adults and children. Our NDA was accepted for filing by the FDA and designated for priority review in July of that year. The FDA extended its review period for the NDA and on February 10, 2010, we received a complete response letter from the
agency, which stated that the NDA could not be approved due to deficiencies with respect to good manufacturing practices observed during an inspection of the facilities of our third-party manufacturer. We resubmitted our NDA for OFIRMEV on
May 4, 2010 and on November 2, 2010, the product was approved by the FDA. We are currently preparing to initiate sales of OFIRMEV in the first quarter of 2011.

Table of Contents
We
believe that OFIRMEV may fulfill significant unmet needs in the hospital setting. We also believe that the hospital pharmaceuticals market is both concentrated and underserved and intend to focus our sales and marketing efforts primarily on
hospital-based physicians who manage patients with mild to severe pain who cannot take oral medications.
Omiganan
Pentahydrochloride
In 2005, we completed a special protocol assessment, or SPA, for omiganan
pentahydrochloride 1% aqueous gel, and initiated Phase III clinical trials for this product candidate. In March 2009, we announced that our Phase III clinical trial of omiganan pentahydrochloride did not meet its primary endpoint and discontinued
our development efforts for this product candidate because we believed that the results of the study did not support applications for marketing approval. At the same time, we implemented cost reduction measures and restructured our operations to
make additional resources available for our OFIRMEV development program and other operating activities.
We
have not begun principal operations of commercializing OFIRMEV and are considered a development stage company. We have incurred significant net losses since our inception and as of September 30, 2010, had an accumulated deficit of
$254.9 million. These losses have resulted principally from costs incurred in connection with research and development activities, including license fees, costs of clinical trial activities associated with our product candidates,
pre-commercialization manufacturing development activities, the establishment of our commercial infrastructure and general and administrative expenses. We expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future as we commence the
commercialization of OFIRMEV and acquire or in-license additional products, technologies or businesses that are complementary to our own.
We have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities. In October 2006, we completed an initial public offering in which we sold 6.0 million shares of our common stock at
$9.00 per share and received aggregate net proceeds of $48.4 million (after underwriting discounts and offering costs). In November 2006, following exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, we sold 0.9 million shares
of our common stock at $9.00 per share and received aggregate net proceeds of $7.5 million (after underwriting discounts). In February 2008, we completed a registered direct offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement
under which we issued and sold 9.2 million shares of common stock at $5.34 per share and received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $49.1 million (after offering costs). In February 2009, we raised additional funds by completing a private
placement of approximately 12.0 million shares of common stock at a price of $7.13 per share, and warrants to purchase up to approximately 6.0 million additional shares of common stock at a price of $0.125 per warrant, for aggregate net
proceeds of $86.2 million (after offering costs). Each warrant has a five-year term and is exercisable in cash or by net exercise for one share of common stock at a price of $7.84. As of September 30, 2010, all of the warrants remain
outstanding.
Revenues
We have not generated any revenues to date, and we do not expect to generate any revenues from licensing, achievement of
milestones or product sales until we initiate sales of OFIRMEV or execute a collaboration arrangement with a third party.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and
development expenses consist primarily of license fees, salaries and related employee benefits, pre-commercialization manufacturing development activities, costs associated with clinical trials managed by our contract research organizations, or
CROs, and costs associated with non-clinical activities, such as regulatory expenses. License fees are paid to the patent holders of our product candidates that give us the exclusive licenses to the patent rights and know-how for selected
indications and territories. Manufacturing development activities include the costs to develop facilities for the commercial production of our drug products prior to approval, the production of supply and validation lots, and other manufacturing
support activities related to the requirements for submitting NDAs for our product candidates. The clinical trial expenses include payments to vendors such as CROs, investigators, clinical suppliers and related consultants.
16
Table of Contents
Our
historical research and development expenses relate predominantly to OFIRMEV and our discontinued omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate. We have expensed these charges as they have been incurred as the underlying technology associated with
these expenditures relates to our research and development efforts and has no alternative future uses. A substantial portion of these external costs are tracked on a project basis. However, our internal research and development resources are used in
several projects and may not be attributable to a specific product candidate. For example, a substantial portion of our internal costs, including personnel and facility related costs, is not tracked on a project basis. We have summarized these costs
in the following table. Costs that are not attributable to a specific product candidate, including salaries and related personnel costs, are included in the "other supporting costs" category (in thousands):

We paid an up-front license fee of $25.0 million in 2006 for OFIRMEV, which is included in the amount for the period from May 26, 2004
(inception) through September 30, 2010. We may be required to make future milestone payments totaling up to $40.0 million upon the achievement of various milestones related to regulatory and commercial events in addition to royalties on the
sales of the licensed products, including payments totaling $15.0 million due in the fourth quarter of 2010 as a result of the FDA's approval of OFIRMEV on November 2, 2010.
(

We paid an up-front license fee of $2.0 million in 2004 for omiganan pentahydrochloride, of which $1.5 million is included in the costs for the
period from May 26, 2004 (inception) through September 30, 2010. The remaining $0.5 million was allocated to the shares of Migenix, Inc., or Migenix, common stock we received as part of the transaction. As a result of the termination of
our collaboration and license agreement with Migenix on May 8, 2009, we will not be obligated to make any future milestone or royalty payments with respect to this product candidate.
(3)
During the second quarter of 2010 we modified the design of our planned second production line for OFIRMEV, resulting in the partial cancellation of
a capital equipment order for which the Company has identified an alternative supplier. As a result of the partial cancellation of the equipment, we incurred a charge of $1.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to impair the
costs accumulated in construction-in-process for the equipment and record related termination charges. During the fourth quarter of 2008, we recorded an impairment charge of $2.4 million on our omiganan pentahydrochloride manufacturing equipment due
to the discontinuance of our omiganan pentahydrochloride program and in the first quarter of 2009, recorded a restructuring charge of $0.6 million related to the discontinuation of our omiganan pentahydrochloride development program. During 2009, we
recorded adjustments to the omiganan impairment, reducing the charge by $0.2 million as actual costs incurred in disposing of the assets were less than anticipated. These charges are presented separately on our statement of operations in
"Other" operating expenses and are not included in the table above.
It is difficult to anticipate the scope and magnitude of our
future research and development expenses. For example, the FDA has required that we complete a post-approval clinical trial OFIRMEV in pediatric patients under two years of age. Further, we may look to expand the indications for OFIRMEV in the
future which could require further studies. Moreover, any product candidates we may in-license or acquire in the future would likely require significant research and development resources. Therefore, we are unable to estimate with any certainty the
costs we will incur in completing our development efforts for OFIRMEV or any other product candidate we might acquire or in-license.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Our sales and
marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related employee benefits, market research studies and pre-launch marketing activities, costs related to the establishment of our commercial infrastructure and professional fees related to
building our sales and marketing capabilities. In 2009 we began to focus significant resources on establishing our commercial infrastructure in preparation for the commercial launch of OFIRMEV and our sales and marketing staff from two at the
beginning of 2009 to 38 at September 30, 2010. Further, we are currently in the process of hiring approximately 150 sales representatives for the commercial launch of OFIRMEV to begin marketing the product to physicians, nurses, hospitals,
group purchasing organizations and other customers.
17
Table of Contents
We
anticipate our sales and marketing expenses will continue to increase as we initiate sales of OFIRMEV, including hiring our sales representatives and commencing marketing activities for this product.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related employee benefits for our
administrative, finance, human resources, legal, business development and internal systems support functions; as well as the related professional fees for these functions, insurance and facility costs. We anticipate increases in general and
administrative expenses as we continue to build our corporate infrastructure and support our commercial operations in connection with the launch of OFIRMEV.
Interest and Other Income and Expense
Our interest
income consists primarily of interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Interest expense consists of the interest we have incurred under our loan agreements and the related amortization of debt issuance costs. Other
income (expense) includes charges we have incurred to recognize other-than-temporary declines in the market value of our available-for-sale securities, gains or losses recognized on transactions denominated in foreign currencies and other
non-operating income or expenses.
Income Taxes
We assess income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of
the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. For those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, we have recorded the largest amount of tax benefit that may
potentially be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit
has been recognized in the financial statements.
As of December 31, 2009, we had federal and state net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately $171.4 million and $170.6 million, respectively. If not utilized, the net operating loss carryforwards will begin expiring in 2024 for federal purposes and 2014 for state purposes. Additionally, we
had both federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively. The federal tax credits will begin expiring in 2024 unless previously utilized and the state tax credits
carryforward indefinitely. Under Section 382/383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code, substantial changes in our ownership may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards and development tax
credit carryforwards that could be utilized annually in the future to offset taxable income. Any such annual limitation may significantly reduce the utilization of the net operating losses and tax credits before they expire. We have not completed a
Section 382/383 study at this time to determine the impact ownership changes have had on our carryforwards. In each period since our inception, we have recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of our deferred tax asset, as the
realization of the deferred tax asset is uncertain. As a result, we have not recognized any federal or state income tax benefit in our statement of operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP, requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often
as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The following accounting policies involve critical accounting estimates because they are particularly dependent on estimates and assumptions made by management about
matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made. In addition, while we have used our best estimates based on facts and circumstances available to us at the time, different estimates reasonably could have been used.
Changes in the accounting estimates we use are reasonably likely to occur from time to time, which may have a material impact on the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations.
Our most critical accounting estimates include our recognition of research and development expenses, which impacts
operating expenses and accrued liabilities; stock-based compensation which impacts operating expenses; and the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, which primarily impacts operating expenses when we impair assets or accelerate
depreciation. We also have other policies that we consider to be key accounting policies, such as our policies for deferred income tax assets and liabilities and our reserves for commitments and contingencies; however, these policies either do not
meet the definition of critical accounting estimates described above or are not currently material items in our financial statements. Additionally, as we have not yet initiated commercial operations for OFIRMEV, revenue recognition and inventory
valuation are not considered critical accounting policies; however, these policies will likely become key accounting policies in subsequent periods as we begin to commercialize our OFIRMEV product.
18
Table of Contents
We
review our estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in our accounting practices periodically and reflect the effects of revisions in the period in which they are deemed to be necessary. We believe that these estimates are reasonable; however,
actual results could differ from these estimates.
Research and Development Expenses
A substantial portion of our research and development activities is performed under agreements we enter into with
external service providers, including CROs that conduct many of our research and development activities and third-party manufacturers who develop the manufacturing facilities for the potential commercial production of our drug candidates. We accrue
for costs incurred under these contracts based on factors such as estimates of work performed, milestones achieved, patient enrollment and experience with similar contracts. As actual costs become known, we adjust our accruals. To date, our accruals
have been within management's estimates. Subsequent changes in estimates may result in a change in our accruals, which could also materially affect our results of operations.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation by calculating the fair value of the award on the date of grant and recognize the
expense over the applicable vesting period. We calculate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes pricing model, which requires a number of estimates, including the expected lives of awards, interest rates, stock volatility and other
assumptions. Restricted stock units, or RSUs, are measured based on the fair market values of the underlying stock on the dates of grant. We apply a forfeiture rate to estimate the number of grants that will ultimately vest. If the awards are
performance based, we also assess the likelihood of the vesting conditions occurring and apply an appropriate factor in recognizing the expense.
The table below summarizes the stock-based compensation expense included in our statements of operations for the periods indicated (in thousands):

As of September 30, 2010, the total future compensation expense related to the current
unvested stock options and RSUs is approximately $17.5 million.
Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate long-lived assets for impairment of their carrying value when events or circumstances indicate that the
carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant negative industry or economic trends, significant changes or planned changes in our use of the assets, technological
obsolescence, or other changes in circumstances which indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. If such an event occurs, we evaluate whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows attributable to the assets in
question is less than their carrying value. If this is the case, we recognize an impairment loss to the extent that carrying value exceeds fair value. Fair value is determined based on market prices or discounted cash flow analysis, depending on the
nature of the asset and the availability of market data. Any estimate of future cash flows is inherently uncertain. The factors we take into consideration in making estimates of future cash flows include product life cycles, pricing trends, future
capital needs, cost trends, product development costs, competitive factors and technology trends as they each affect cash inflows and outflows. If an asset is written down to fair value, that value becomes the asset's new carrying value and is
depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.

result of the discontinuation of our omiganan pentahydrochloride program, we recorded an impairment charge of $2.4 million on our omiganan pentahydrochloride manufacturing equipment during the fourth quarter of 2008. In 2009, we recorded adjustments
to this impairment charge, reducing it by $0.2 million as actual costs incurred in disposing of the assets were less than anticipated. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2010, we modified the design of our planned second production line for
our OFIRMEV product candidate resulting in the partial cancellation of a capital equipment order for which the Company has identified an alternative supplier. As a result of the partial cancellation of the equipment, we incurred a charge of $1.2
million during the second quarter of 2010 to impair the costs accumulated in construction-in-process for the equipment and $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2010 to accrue for related termination charges. No other impairment charges have been
recorded during 2009 and 2010.
Results of Operations
Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009
Operating Expenses
Research and Development Expenses.
Research and development expenses decreased $1.0 million to $3.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2010, from $4.5 million for the comparable period in 2009. This reduction was mostly due to reductions in regulatory-related spending and clinical development costs for OFIRMEV, combined with a
decrease of $0.4 million in stock-based compensation charges for the current period as the third quarter of 2009 included costs related to restricted stock units granted during that quarter which were not included in the 2010 expenses.
Sales and Marketing Expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.0 million, to $4.1 million, for the
three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $3.1 million for the comparable period in 2009. This increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel related costs as we increased our sales and marketing staff from six at June 30,
2009 to 38 as of September 30, 2010 in preparation for the commercial launch of OFIRMEV. This increase in personnel has significantly increased our salaries and personnel costs, including an additional $0.5 million of stock-based compensation
costs incurred during the current period as compared to the similar period in 2009.
General and
Administrative Expenses.
General and administrative expenses decreased $0.9 million to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2009. This decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in stock-based compensation charges of $0.6 million as the 2009 period included costs related to restricted stock units granted which were not included in the 2010 expenses. Further, lower legal costs were incurred during
the current period as compared to the similar period in 2009.
Other Income and Expense, Net
Net other expense increased $0.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2010, to
$0.6 million, compared to $0.1 million for the same period in 2009. This increase is primarily due to increased interest expense as a result of the drawdown of $20.0 million on our $30.0 million loan facility established in June 2010. The $20.0
million advance has a fixed interest rate of 11.33% and is recorded net of a debt discount which, along with the term loan final payment and debt issuance costs, is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan. During the three
months ended September 30, 2009, we incurred interest expense on our then existing $15.0 million loan facility. The balance of our debt obligations, net of the loan discounts, on our balance sheet at September 30, 2010 and
December 31, 2009 was $18.6 million and $6.4 million, respectively.
Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30,
2010 and 2009
Operating Expenses
Research and Development Expenses.
Research and development expenses decreased $4.1 million to $10.6 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, from $14.7 million for the comparable period in 2009. This reduction was primarily due to a $1.8 million decrease in spending for OFIRMEV as we completed the clinical development program for
this product and filed an NDA in May 2009. Additionally, research and development spending on our omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate decreased $1.6 million in 2010 as compared to 2009 as we discontinued our development efforts for this
product candidate in March 2009 following the results of our Phase III clinical trial for this drug. Further, other supporting costs decreased $0.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 period as compared to 2009, primarily
from a reduction in salaries and related personnel costs as result of a reduction in research and development headcount.

Sales and Marketing Expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $10.1 million, to $14.9 million, for the
nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $4.8 million for the comparable period in 2009. This increase was primarily due to the establishment of our commercial infrastructure in preparation for the commercial launch of OFIRMEV. As part
of our these efforts, we increased our sales and marketing staff from two at the beginning of 2009 to 38 as of September 30, 2010, which has significantly increased our salaries and personnel costs in 2010, including an additional $2.1 million
of stock-based compensation costs during the first nine months of 2010 as compared to the similar period in 2009. Moreover, we incurred additional outside service fees and travel-related costs as we continue our commercial readiness preparations for
the launch of OFIRMEV.
General and Administrative Expenses.
General and administrative expenses
remained constant at $9.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to 2009. Additional costs have been incurred during 2010 in establishing our information technology infrastructure and legal costs in support of the
commercialization of our OFIRMEV product, however these additional expenses have been mostly offset by reductions in our business development and investor relations functions.
Other Operating Expenses.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 we recorded a charge of $1.5
million related to the partial cancellation of an equipment order resulting from a modification in the design of our planned second production line for OFIRMEV. We have identified an alternative supplier and the charge recorded impairs the costs
that had been accumulated in construction-in-process for the equipment. Additionally, we incurred a charge of $0.3 million related to a reduction in force of six individuals during the second quarter of 2010. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, we recorded restructuring charges of $0.6 million related to the discontinuation of our omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate. Further, we reduced the impairment charge taken in the fourth quarter of 2008 on our
omiganan pentahydrochloride manufacturing equipment by $0.2 million during the 2009 period as actual costs incurred in disposing of the assets were less than anticipated.
Other Income and Expense, Net
Net other expense increased $0.4 million to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to
$0.7 million for the comparable period in 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in interest expense incurred on our loan facilities, combined with lower returns on our cash and investments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As a biopharmaceutical company focused on in-licensing, developing and commercializing proprietary pharmaceutical product candidates, we enter into license agreements to acquire the rights to develop and
commercialize product candidates. We obtained the exclusive patent rights and know-how for OFIRMEV, currently our only product candidate, for the U.S. and Canada pursuant to our license agreement with BMS. Under this agreement, we paid to BMS a
$25.0 million up-front fee and may be required to make future milestone payments totaling up to $40.0 million upon the achievement of various milestones related to regulatory and commercial events, including payments totaling $15.0 million
due in the fourth quarter of 2010 as a result of the approval of our NDA for OFIRMEV by the FDA on November 2, 2010. We are also obligated to pay royalties on any net sales of OFIRMEV. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2010 we entered into an
option agreement pursuant to which we obtained an option to acquire Incline Therapeutics, Inc. ("Incline") during two option periods. In consideration for the option we paid a $3.5 million upfront option fee and will pay an additional $3.5
million if we have not exercised our option during the first option period. During the first option period we may acquire Incline for an amount not to exceed $135.0 million. During the second option period we may acquire Incline for an amount not to
exceed $228.0 million, plus an additional payment of an amount not to exceed $57.0 million upon FDA approval of its IONSYS product candidate.
We had also previously entered into a license agreement for our former omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate under which we paid to Migenix an aggregate of $2.0 million in the form of an
up-front fee, including the purchase of 617,284 shares of Migenix common stock. In May 2009, we terminated our license agreement with Migenix, and we will not be required to make future milestone or royalty payments under this agreement.
Our future capital uses and requirements depend on numerous forward-looking factors. These factors include,
but are not limited to, the following:
•
the success of our efforts to commercialize OFIRMEV
•
the cost and timing of securing sufficient supplies of OFIRMEV from our contract manufacturers;
•
the effect of competing technological and market developments;
21
Table of Contents
•
the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights associated with our product
candidates, including any such costs we may be required to expend if our licensors are unwilling or unable to do so;
•
the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing, co-promotion or other arrangements that we may establish;
•
the potential that we may be required to file a lawsuit to defend our patent rights or regulatory exclusivities from challenges by companies seeking
to market generic versions of intravenous acetaminophen;
•
costs associated with any new product candidates we may acquire; and
•
whether we elect to exercise our right to acquire Incline and the timing of that exercise, as well as any related development expenses for the
IONSYS product candidate thereafter.
As of September 30, 2010, we had $50.4 million in
cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $25.5 million from $75.9 million at December 31, 2009. This decrease was primarily due to cash used in operations ($30.1 million), the upfront option fee paid to Incline ($3.5 million), payments on the
purchases of property and equipment ($2.3 million) and net purchases of marketable securities ($3.3 million). These decreases were offset by the proceeds we received from our debt agreements, net of fees and principal payments ($13.2 million).
The $30.1 million of cash used in operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 represents
a $0.3 million decrease from the $30.4 million of cash used in operations during the comparable 2009 period. Although we have incurred a larger operating loss during the current year of $7.7 million, a significant portion of this increase has been
from additional non-cash charges incurred during the current year, including a $1.5 million impairment charge and an additional $2.2 million of stock-based compensation recorded during the first nine months of 2010 as compared to same period in
2009. Further, we experienced a less significant net decrease in our accounts payable and accrued liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009, which favorably impacted our cash used in
operations during 2010 as compared to 2009.
The $13.2 million of net proceeds we received from our debt
agreements represent new borrowings of $20.0 million received in June 2010 under our new $30.0 million loan facility, partially offset by $0.4 million of fees and issuance costs. Further, as part of the new facility, we made principal payments of
$6.4 million and the term loan final payment of $0.4 million under our $15.0 million loan facility to extinguish the debt as of June 30, 2010. An additional $10.0 million is now available under our new $30.0 million loan facility as a result of
the FDA approval of OFIRMEV. We will make interest-only payments on the outstanding balance of the new debt agreement through July 1, 2011, and subsequently make principal and interest payments to fully amortize the balance over the subsequent
30 month term.
Our net property and equipment balance decreased $0.4 million during the nine months ended
September 30, 2010, to $7.9 million, from $8.3 million at December 31, 2009. This decrease is primarily due to an impairment we recorded related to equipment we had been constructing for our planned second manufacturing line and
depreciation of $0.5 million incurred during the first nine months of 2010, partially offset by purchases of capital equipment during the period to be used primarily for the commercial manufacturing of OFIRMEV.
Sources of Liquidity
Since inception, our operations have been financed primarily through the issuance of equity securities, in both public and private offerings. From our inception through September 30, 2010, we have
received net proceeds of approximately $271.2 million from the sale of our preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. Through September 30, 2010, the sales of shares of our preferred stock, common stock and
warrants were as follows:
•
from July 2004 to September 2010 (excluding our initial public offering, our February 2008 registered direct offering and our February 2009 private
placement), we issued and sold a total of 2,414,645 shares of common stock to our founders, employees, directors and consultants for aggregate net proceeds of $1.1 million;
•
from July 2004 to August 2004, we issued and sold a total of 8,085,108 shares of Series A-1 preferred stock for aggregate net proceeds of
$7.5 million;
•
from June 2005 to September 2005, we issued and sold a total of 17,675,347 shares of Series A-2 preferred stock for aggregate net proceeds
of $17.6 million;
22
Table of Contents
•
in March 2006, we issued and sold a total of 53,870,000 shares of Series A-3 preferred stock for aggregate net proceeds of
$53.8 million;
•
in the fourth quarter of 2006, we completed our initial public offering in which we issued and sold a total of 6,900,000 shares of our common
stock for aggregate net proceeds of $55.9 million;
•
in February 2008, we completed a registered direct offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration in which we issued and sold a total of
9,240,307 shares of our common stock for aggregate net proceeds of $49.1 million; and
•
in February 2009, we raised aggregate net proceeds of approximately $86.2 million through a private placement transaction in which we issued
12,039,794 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 6,019,897 additional shares of common stock at $7.84 per share.
Additionally, in February 2006, we entered into a $7.0 million loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and Oxford Finance Corporation to provide us with growth capital. We drew down
$7.0 million in June 2006 and in July 2009 we made the final payment to retire the $7.0 million obligation. In November 2007, we amended the $7.0 million loan and security agreement and entered into the Second Amendment to Loan and Security
Agreement with the same parties and GE Business Financial Services Inc. (formerly known as Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services, Inc.), to secure an additional $15.0 million loan facility. In December 2007, we drew down $15.0 million under the
Second Amendment. In June 2010, we replaced the $15.0 million loan facility and secured a $30.0 million loan facility, available in two separate advances, with the same loan syndicate. The first advance of $20.0 million was made in conjunction with
securing the facility in June 2010. The second advance of $10.0 million has been made available to us as a result of the FDA approval of our OFIRMEV NDA on November 2, 2010. In connection with the establishment of the $30.0 million loan facility in
June 2010, we paid the outstanding balance of the $15.0 million facility in full and retired the obligation.
In connection with each loan agreement, we issued warrants to the lenders to purchase shares of our stock. As of
September 30, 2010, 63,079 shares of common stock had been issued from the exercise of warrants. Further, warrants to purchase 50,331 common shares at $12.67 per share and 254,793 common shares at $7.0645 per share remained outstanding from our
loan agreements.
Capital Resources
Our cash, cash equivalent and short-term investment balances are our primary source of liquidity. These capital resources
and the $10.0 million now available under our existing debt agreement are the only sources currently available to us. We believe we have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations, at a minimum, through the initial launch of OFIRMEV but
anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital to fully support commercialization of the product until we are able to generate sufficient cash from operations. Currently we are reviewing financing alternatives, including the sale of
additional equity securities and debt financings. We have an effective universal shelf registration statement and may raise up to $100.0 million in a combination of equity and debt transactions under that registration statement. If additional
financing is not available at all, or on acceptable terms, we may have to postpone, scale back or eliminate some, or all, of our commercial objectives.
Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to costs associated with our efforts to:
•
effectively commercialize OFIRMEV;
•
manufacture commercial quantities of OFIRMEV at acceptable cost levels; and
•
complete the development of our commercial organization and the supporting infrastructure required to successfully market and sell OFIRMEV.

Until
we can generate significant cash from our operations, we expect to continue to fund our operations with our available financial resources, generated from the proceeds of offerings of our equity securities and our existing borrowings under our
amended and restated loan and security agreement. These financial resources may not be adequate to sustain our operations until we are able to generate significant positive cash from operations. As a result, we may be required to finance future cash
needs through the sale of additional equity securities, strategic collaboration agreements and debt financing. We may not be successful in obtaining strategic collaboration agreements, and we cannot be certain that additional financing will be
available when needed or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to us or our stockholders. The capital markets have experienced extreme volatility in recent years and the availability of credit has been adversely affected
by illiquid credit markets and wide credit spreads. Concern about the stability of the markets in general, and the strength of counterparties specifically, has led many lenders and institutional investors to reduce, and in some cases, cease to
provide funding to borrowers. Continued turbulence in the U.S. and international markets and economies may adversely affect our ability to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If these market conditions continue, they
may limit our ability to timely replace maturing liabilities and to access the capital markets to meet liquidity needs. Having insufficient funds may require us to delay, scale-back or eliminate some or all of our development programs or renegotiate
less favorable terms than we would otherwise choose. Failure to obtain adequate financing also may adversely affect our ability to operate as a going concern. Additionally, if we raise funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing
stockholders would result, and if we raise funds by incurring additional debt financing, the terms of the debt may involve significant cash payment obligations as well as covenants and specific financial ratios that may restrict our ability to
operate our business.
We have invested a substantial portion of our available cash in money market funds
placed with reputable financial institutions and debt instruments of agencies of the U.S. government, municipalities and established corporations for which credit loss is not anticipated. The capital markets have been highly volatile in recent years
and there has been a lack of liquidity for certain financial instruments, especially those with exposure to mortgage-backed securities and auction rate securities which has made it difficult to value these types of instruments. As of
September 30, 2010 our money market fund holdings did not hold auction rate securities.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2010.

Caution on Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or Quarterly Report, includes forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking
statements discuss matters that are not historical facts, and include, but are not limited to, discussions regarding our business, regulatory and commercialization strategies, growth strategy, competition, industry, regulatory environment, economic
conditions, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources and results of operations. In this Quarterly Report, for example, we make forward-looking statements regarding: our ability to successfully commercialize OFIRMEV; the market potential
for OFIRMEV, and our ability to compete within the market; our ability to complete future drawdowns under our loan facility; the potential for us to ultimately acquire Incline, the anticipated strategic benefit to us of any such acquisition, and the
likelihood that Incline will successfully develop and obtain regulatory approval from the FDA for IONSYS; and all financial estimates or projections related to our company. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements preceded by,
followed by or that otherwise include the words, "believe," "may," "might," "can," "could," "will," "would,", "should," "estimate," "continue,"
"anticipate," "intend," "seek," "plan," "project," "expect," or similar expressions.

Table of Contents
While
we believe that the expectations reflected in this Quarterly Report are reasonable, the inclusion of any forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation that any of our plans will be achieved. Our actual results may differ from
those anticipated in our forward looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth below under the caption "Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors" and the differences may be material. These risk
factors include, but are not limited to: our dependence on the success of the commercialization of OFIRMEV, our only product candidate; the potential that we will require substantial additional funding in order to effectively commercialize OFIRMEV,
as well as to exercise our option to acquire Incline and obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize IONSYS, and the risk that we may not be able to raise sufficient capital when needed, or at all; the risk that delays in commercially launching
OFIRMEV will enable competitors to further entrench their existing products or develop and bring new products to market before OFIRMEV; our ability to ensure adequate and continued supply of OFIRMEV to successfully launch commercial sales or meet
anticipated market demand; our ability to comply with the terms of our loan agreement; the potential for an event of default under the loan agreement, and the corresponding risk of acceleration of repayment and potential foreclosure on the assets
pledged to secure the line of credit; the impact of healthcare reform legislation; and other risks detailed below under Part II — Item 1A — Risk Factors and in our periodic public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement and we undertake no obligation to
revise or update such statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof. This caution is made under the safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our cash equivalents and short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale. As of September 30, 2010 our
holdings consisted of investments in money market funds, debt obligations for the U.S. government and municipalities, and commercial paper. These investments were made in accordance with an investment policy approved by our board of directors which
specifies the categories, allocations, and ratings of securities we may consider for investment. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive without
significantly increasing risk. Some of the financial instruments that we invest in could be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the value of the instruments to fluctuate. For example, if we
purchase a security that was issued with a fixed interest rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the value of that security will probably decline. To minimize this risk, we intend to maintain a portfolio which may include cash, cash
equivalents and investment securities available-for-sale in a variety of securities which may include money market funds, government and non-government debt securities and commercial paper, all with various maturity dates. Based on our current
investment portfolio, we do not believe that our results of operations would be materially impacted by an immediate change of 10% in interest rates.
We do not hold or issue derivatives, derivative commodity instruments or other financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Further, we do not believe our cash, cash equivalents and investment
securities have significant risk of default or illiquidity. We made this determination based on discussions with our investment advisors and a review of our holdings. While we believe our cash, cash equivalents and investment securities do not
contain excessive risk, we cannot provide absolute assurance that in the future our investments will not be subject to adverse changes in market value. All of our investments are held at fair value. The following table shows the fair value of our
cash equivalents and investments as of September 30, 2010 (in thousands):

Debt
The loan under our current loan and security agreement has a fixed interest rate. Consequently, we do not
have significant interest rate cash flow exposure on our debt. The aggregate balance of the loans, net of the loan discount, under the agreement at September 30, 2010 was $18.6 million, and is collateralized by substantially all of our assets
(excluding intellectual property). Under the terms of the agreement, we are precluded from entering into certain financing and other transactions, including disposing of certain assets and paying dividends, and are subject to various non-financial
covenants and prepayment penalties.

Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in
our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's
rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing
and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and
management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
As required by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly
Report. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There was no change in our internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Risk Factors
You should carefully consider the risks described below, in addition to the other information contained in this report, before making an investment decision. Our business, financial condition or
results of operations could be harmed by any of these risks. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or other factors not perceived by us to present significant risks to
our business at this time also may impair our business operations.
We have marked with an asterisk
(*) those risk factors that reflect substantive changes from the risk factors included in our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
Our success depends on our ability to successfully commercialize our only product, OFIRMEV™.*
Our success depends on our ability to effectively commercialize our only product, OFIRMEV, which was
approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, on November 2, 2010, for the management of pain and fever in adults and children.
We plan to launch OFIRMEV in the first quarter of 2011, but our ability to effectively commercialize and generate revenues from OFIRMEV will depend on our ability to:
•
hire, train, deploy and support our sales force;
•
create market demand for OFIRMEV through our own marketing and sales activities, and any other arrangements to promote this product we may later
establish;
•
obtain OFIRMEV from our third-party manufacturer in sufficient quantities and at acceptable quality and pricing levels in order to meet commercial
demand at launch and thereafter;
•
implement and maintain agreements with wholesalers, distributors and group purchasing organizations on commercially reasonable terms;
•
ensure that our entire supply chain for OFIRMEV efficiently and consistently delivers OFIRMEV to our customers; and
•
maintain and defend our patent protection and obtain regulatory exclusivity for OFIRMEV.
Any failure or significant delay in the commercialization of OFIRMEV will have a substantial adverse impact on our
results of operations.
We will require substantial additional funding in order to effectively
commercialize OFIRMEV, and may be unable to raise capital when needed, which would force us to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of our commercialization activities.*
We expect our negative cash flow from operations to continue until we are able to generate significant revenues from
sales of OFIRMEV. As a result, we will need to raise additional capital to:
•
fund our operations as we implement our marketing strategies, hire additional personnel, and complete the establishment of our commercial
infrastructure to launch OFIRMEV;
•
purchase sufficient quantities of OFIRMEV from our contract manufacturers in preparation for the launch of this product in the first quarter of
2011;
•
continue to fund the expansion of our contract manufacturer's capacity to produce OFIRMEV in order to meet future demand for this
product; and
•
complete an additional efficacy study of OFIRMEV in pediatric patients under two years of age, as required to comply with our post-commercialization
commitment to the FDA.
27
Table of Contents
Our
funding requirements related to the commercialization of OFIRMEV may exceed our current projections as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to:
•
our sales of OFIRMEV may be lower than expected;
•
the costs associated with our efforts to sell, market and distribute OFIRMEV, including costs associated with establishing our commercial
infrastructure, may be greater than anticipated;
•
we may incur unexpected costs in order to ensure a sufficient supply of OFIRMEV from our contract manufacturer in preparation for commercialization;
and
•
we may be required to file lawsuits to defend our patent rights or regulatory exclusivities from challenges by companies seeking to market generic
versions of intravenous acetaminophen, including any such costs we may be required to expend if our licensors are unwilling or unable to do so.
Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenue from sales of OFIRMEV, if ever, we expect to finance future cash
needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements, as well as through interest income earned on cash and investment balances. For example, in February 2009, we completed a private
placement of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock, raising net proceeds of approximately $86.2 million, and in June 2010, we drew an initial advance of $20.0 million under our loan and security agreement with Oxford Finance
Corporation, Silicon Valley Bank and GE Business Financial Services, Inc. A second advance of $10.0 million was made available to us on November 2, 2010, following the approval of OFIRMEV by the FDA.
We believe that we currently have sufficient funds to meet our projected operating requirements, at a minimum, through
the initial launch of OFIRMEV. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong and we could spend our available financial resources faster than we currently expect. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available
on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our commercialization efforts for OFIRMEV, which could decrease sales of this product and have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, stock price and operations.
We have no manufacturing capabilities
and depend entirely upon our contract manufacturer to produce OFIRMEV. If our contract manufacturer fails to meet our requirements for OFIRMEV, or fails to fully comply with GMP regulations, we may be unable to meet market demand, and may lose
potential revenues.*
The manufacture of pharmaceutical products requires significant expertise and
capital investment, including the development of advanced manufacturing techniques and process controls, and the use of specialized processing equipment. We have no such manufacturing capabilities, so we currently rely on Baxter Healthcare
Corporation, or Baxter, as the sole source for OFIRMEV under our long-term development and supply agreement with Baxter.
Baxter must comply with strictly enforced federal, state and foreign regulations, including GMP regulations. Any failure to comply with applicable regulations may result in fines and civil penalties,
suspension of production, suspension or delay in product approval, product seizure or recall, or withdrawal of product approval, and would limit the availability of OFIRMEV. For example, in February 2010, we received a complete response letter
from the FDA, which stated that our NDA could not be approved due to deficiencies with respect to good manufacturing practices observed during the agency's inspection of Baxter's facilities. Any manufacturing defect or error discovered
after products have been produced and distributed could result in even more significant consequences, including costly recall procedures, re-stocking costs, damage to our reputation, product liability claims and litigation.
In order to meet anticipated demand for OFIRMEV, Baxter has initiated planning activities to install additional
production lines, and we have ordered additional, specialized processing equipment to expand the manufacturing capacity for OFIRMEV. Major components of this processing equipment are currently available from single sources, and if this equipment is
not delivered on time or at all, the manufacturing capacity for OFIRMEV may not keep pace with anticipated demand. Any termination or disruption of our relationship with Baxter may materially harm our business and financial condition, and delay
our commercialization efforts with respect to OFIRMEV.

We
also currently rely upon a single source for the manufacture of the active pharmaceutical ingredient, or API, for OFIRMEV, as well as for other critical components of OFIRMEV. We have recently entered into a supply agreement for the commercial
supply of the API. The process of changing or adding a new manufacturer or critical component supplier may require additional testing and prior FDA approval and may be expensive and time-consuming. If we are unable to manage such
changes effectively, we could face supply disruptions that could result in significant costs and delays, damage to our reputation or commercial prospects and cause us to lose potential revenues.
Although we actively manage these third party relationships to ensure continuity and quality, some events beyond our
control could result in the complete or partial failure of these goods and services. Any such failure could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operations.
We have never marketed a drug before, and if we are unable to establish an effective commercial infrastructure, we
will not be able to successfully commercialize OFIRMEV.
We are building our own sales and marketing
capabilities in order to market OFIRMEV directly to physicians, nurses, hospitals, group purchasing organizations and other customers, and will continue to incur significant expenses associated with the recruitment, training and compensation of our
sales representatives. We expect that the annual sales force cost associated with each of our sales representatives will be approximately $300,000, but it could be significantly more. The development of our hospital-focused sales, marketing and
distribution infrastructure for our domestic operations will continue to be expensive and time consuming, there may be unforeseen costs and expenses or time-delays associated with such activities, and, if not completed on time, could delay the
launch of OFIRMEV or otherwise negatively impact our commercialization efforts. If we are not successful in attracting or retaining a full complement of qualified sales and marketing personnel in time for the launch of OFIRMEV, we may not achieve
our initial sales objectives. If we are unable to establish adequate sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, whether independently or with third parties, we may not be able to generate any product revenue, may experience increased expenses,
and may never become profitable.
We expect intense competition for OFIRMEV, and new products may emerge
that provide different or better therapeutic alternatives for our targeted indications.
The
biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are subject to rapid and intense technological change. We face, and will continue to face, competition in the development and marketing of OFIRMEV from academic institutions, government agencies, research
institutions and biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. There can be no assurance that developments by others will not render OFIRMEV obsolete or noncompetitive. Furthermore, new developments, including the development of other drug
technologies and methods of preventing the incidence of disease, occur in the pharmaceutical industry at a rapid pace. These developments may render OFIRMEV obsolete or noncompetitive.
OFIRMEV will compete with well-established products with similar indications. Competing products available for the
treatment of pain include opioids such as morphine, fentanyl, meperidine and hydromorphone, each of which is available generically from several manufacturers, and several of which are available as proprietary products using novel delivery systems.
Ketorolac, an injectable non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, or NSAID, is also available generically in the U.S. from several manufacturers, and Caldolor (ibuprofen for injection), an NSAID, has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of pain
and fever in adults. Competing products available for the treatment of fever in the hospital setting include acetaminophen administered orally and rectally, aspirin and NSAIDs, which may be administered orally, topically or intravenously. Additional
products may be developed for the treatment of acute pain, including new injectable NSAIDs, novel opioids, new formulations of currently available opioids and NSAIDS, long-acting local anesthetics and new chemical entities as well as
alternative delivery forms of various opioids and NSAIDs.
Competitors may seek to develop alternative
formulations of intravenous acetaminophen for our targeted indications that do not directly infringe on our in-licensed patent rights. The commercial opportunity for OFIRMEV could be significantly harmed if competitors are able to develop
alternative formulations outside the scope of our in-licensed patents. In addition, we are aware of several third-party U.S. and Canadian patents and patent applications covering various potential injectable formulations of acetaminophen, including
intravenous formulations, as well as methods of making and using these potential formulations. Compared to us, many of our potential competitors have substantially greater:
•
capital resources;
•
research development resources, including personnel and technology;
•
clinical trial experience;
•
regulatory experience;
29
Table of Contents
•
expertise in prosecution of intellectual property rights; and
•
manufacturing, distribution and sales and marketing experience.
As a result of these factors, our competitors may be able to commercialize their products more rapidly than we are able
to or may obtain patent protection or other intellectual property rights that limit our ability to commercialize OFIRMEV. Our competitors may also develop drugs that are more effective, useful and less costly than ours and may be more successful
than us in manufacturing and marketing their products. We expect to face similar competition in our efforts to identify appropriate collaborators or partners to help commercialize OFIRMEV in Canada.
If OFIRMEV does not achieve broad market acceptance, the revenues that we generate from its sales will be limited.
The commercial success of OFIRMEV will depend upon its acceptance by the medical community, our
ability to ensure that the drug is included in hospital formularies, and coverage and reimbursement for OFIRMEV by third-party payors, including government payors. The degree of market acceptance of OFIRMEV or any other product candidate we may
license or acquire will depend on a number of factors, including:
•
limitations or warnings contained in the product's FDA-approved labeling;
•
changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for our product candidates, which could reduce the marketing impact of any superiority
claims that we could make following FDA approval; and
•
potential advantages over, and availability of, alternative treatments, including, in the case of OFIRMEV, a number of products already used to
treat pain or fever in the hospital setting.
Our ability to effectively promote and sell
OFIRMEV and any other product candidates we may license or acquire in the hospital marketplace will also depend on pricing and cost effectiveness, including our ability to produce a product at a competitive price and achieve acceptance of the
product onto hospital formularies, as well as our ability to obtain sufficient third-party coverage or reimbursement. Although we expect OFIRMEV to be priced between $8 and $10 per dose, this pricing could change and we cannot be sure certain that
our pricing will lead to market acceptance. Since many hospitals are members of group purchasing organizations, which leverage the purchasing power of a group of entities to obtain discounts based on the collective buying power of the group, our
ability to attract customers in the hospital marketplace will also depend on our ability to effectively promote OFIRMEV and any other product candidate to group purchasing organizations. We will also need to demonstrate acceptable evidence of safety
and efficacy, as well as relative convenience and ease of administration. Market acceptance could be further limited depending on the prevalence and severity of any expected or unexpected adverse side effects associated with our product candidates.
If OFIRMEV, or any of our other product candidates that are approved, do not achieve an adequate level of acceptance by physicians, health care payors and patients, we may not generate sufficient revenue from these products, and we may not become or
remain profitable. In addition, our efforts to educate the medical community and third-party payors on the benefits of OFIRMEV or any other product candidates may require significant resources and may never be successful.
We will rely on third parties to perform many essential services for OFIRMEV and any other products that we
commercialize, including services related to warehousing and inventory control, distribution, customer service, accounts receivable management, cash collection and adverse event reporting, and if such third parties fail to perform as expected or to
comply with legal and regulatory requirements, our efforts to commercialize OFIRMEV or any other products may be significantly impacted and we may be subject to regulatory sanctions
.
We have retained third-party service providers to perform a variety of functions related to the sale and distribution of
OFIRMEV, key aspects of which will be out of our direct control. These service providers will provide key services related to warehousing and inventory control, distribution, customer service, accounts receivable management and cash collection, and,
as a result, most of our inventory will be stored at a single warehouse maintained by one such service provider. We will substantially rely on this provider as well as other third-party providers that perform services for us, including entrusting
our inventories of products to their care and handling. If these third-party service providers fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, fail to meet expected deadlines, or otherwise do not carry out their contractual duties to us, or
encounter physical or natural damage at their facilities, our ability to deliver product to meet commercial demand would be significantly impaired. In addition, we have engaged third parties to perform various other services for us relating to
adverse event reporting, safety database management, fulfillment of requests for medical information regarding OFIRMEV and related services. If the quality or accuracy of the data maintained by these service providers is insufficient, we could be
subject to regulatory sanctions.

Although OFIRMEV has received regulatory approval from the FDA, it will remain subject to substantial, ongoing
regulatory requirements.*
OFIRMEV will remain subject to ongoing FDA requirements with respect to the
manufacturing, labeling, packaging, storage, distribution, advertising, promotion, record-keeping and submission of safety and other post-market information on the drug. The FDA has the authority to regulate the claims we make in marketing OFIRMEV
to ensure that such claims are true, not misleading, supported by scientific evidence and consistent with the approved label for the drug. In addition, the discovery of previously unknown problems with OFIRMEV, such as adverse events of
unanticipated severity or frequency, or problems with the facility where the product is manufactured, may result in the imposition of additional restrictions, including withdrawal of the product from the market.
For example, as a condition of the approval of OFIRMEV, we are required to complete a clinical trial assessing the
efficacy of OFIRMEV in children under 2 years of age, and to submit the final results of this clinical trial to the FDA. Depending on the outcome of this study, the indications for OFIRMEV may be limited or we may be required to include specific
warnings or limitations on dosing this product, which could negatively impact our sales of OFIRMEV.
We have
implemented a comprehensive compliance program and related infrastructure, but we cannot provide absolute assurance that we are or will be in compliance with all potentially applicable laws and regulations. If our operations in relation to OFIRMEV
fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, the FDA or other regulatory agencies may:
•
issue warning letters or untitled letters;
•
impose consent decrees, which may include the imposition of various fines, reimbursements for inspection costs, required due dates for specific
actions and penalties for noncompliance;
•
impose fines other civil or criminal penalties;
•
suspend regulatory approval;
•
suspend any ongoing clinical trials;
•
refuse to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications filed by us;
•
impose restrictions on operations, including costly new manufacturing requirements;
•
exclude us from participating in U.S. federal healthcare programs, including Medicaid or Medicare; or
•
seize or detain products or require a product recall.
In addition to FDA restrictions, numerous other federal, state and local laws and regulations apply to the promotion and
sale of pharmaceutical products, such as federal anti-kickback and false claims statutes. For example, the federal healthcare program anti-kickback statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting or
receiving remuneration to induce or in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering or arranging for the purchase, lease or order of any healthcare item or service reimbursable under Medicare, Medicaid or other federally financed healthcare programs.
This statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on the one hand and prescribers, purchasers and formulary managers on the other. Violations of the anti-kickback statute are punishable by imprisonment,
criminal fines, civil monetary penalties and exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs. Although there are a number of statutory exemptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting certain common activities from prosecution or other
regulatory sanctions, the exemptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly, and practices that involve remuneration intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do not qualify for an exemption or safe
harbor. Our practices may not in all cases meet all of the criteria for safe harbor protection from anti-kickback liability.
31
Table of Contents
Federal false claims laws prohibit any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a false claim for
payment to the federal government, or knowingly making, or causing to be made, a false statement to have a false claim paid. Recently, several pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies have been prosecuted under these laws for allegedly
inflating drug prices they report to pricing services, which in turn are used by the government to set Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates, and for allegedly providing free product to customers with the expectation that the customers would
bill federal programs for the product. In addition, certain marketing practices, including off-label promotion, may also violate false claims laws. The majority of states also have statutes or regulations similar to the federal anti-kickback law and
false claims laws, which apply to items and services reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs, or, in several states, apply regardless of the payor. Sanctions under these federal and state laws may include civil monetary penalties,
exclusion of a manufacturer's products from reimbursement under government programs, criminal fines and imprisonment.
Because of the breadth of these laws and the narrowness of the safe harbors, it is possible that some of our business activities could be subject to challenge under one or more of such laws. Such a
challenge could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Regulatory approval for any approved product is limited by the FDA to those specific indications and conditions for
which clinical safety and efficacy have been demonstrated.
Any regulatory approval is limited to
those specific diseases and indications for which a product is deemed to be safe and effective by the FDA. In addition to the FDA approval required for new formulations, any new indication for an approved product also requires FDA approval. If we
are not able to obtain FDA approval for any desired future indications for our products, our ability to effectively market and sell our products may be reduced and our business may be adversely affected.
While physicians may choose to prescribe drugs for uses that are not described in the product's labeling and for
uses that differ from those tested in clinical studies and approved by the regulatory authorities, our ability to promote the products is limited to those indications that are specifically approved by the FDA. These "off-label" uses are
common across medical specialties and may constitute an appropriate treatment for some patients in varied circumstances. Regulatory authorities in the U.S. generally do not regulate the behavior of physicians in their choice of treatments.
Regulatory authorities do, however, restrict communications by pharmaceutical companies on the subject of off-label use. If our promotional activities fail to comply with these regulations or guidelines, we may be subject to warnings from, or
enforcement action by, these authorities. In addition, our failure to follow FDA rules and guidelines relating to promotion and advertising may cause the FDA to suspend or withdraw an approved product from the market, require a recall or
institute fines, or could result in disgorgement of money, operating restrictions, injunctions or criminal prosecution, any of which could harm our business.
We are subject to new legislation, regulatory proposals and healthcare payor initiatives that may increase our costs of compliance and adversely affect our ability to market our products, obtain
collaborators and raise capital.
In March 2010, the President signed the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act, which makes extensive changes to the delivery of health care in the United States. This act includes numerous provisions that affect pharmaceutical companies, some of which were effective immediately and others of which will be
taking effect over the next several years. For example, the act seeks to expand health care coverage to the uninsured through private health insurance reforms and an expansion of Medicaid. The act will also impose substantial costs on pharmaceutical
manufacturers, such as an increase in liability for rebates paid to Medicaid, new drug discounts that must be offered to certain enrollees in the Medicare prescription drug benefit, an annual fee imposed on all manufacturers of brand prescription
drugs in the United States, and an expansion of an existing program requiring pharmaceutical discounts to certain types of hospitals and federally subsidized clinics. The act also contains cost containment measures that could reduce reimbursement
levels for health care items and services generally, including pharmaceuticals. It also will require reporting and public disclosure of payments and other transfers of value provided by pharmaceutical companies to physicians and teaching hospitals.
These measures could result in decreased net revenues from our pharmaceutical products and decrease potential returns from our development efforts.
In addition, there have been a number of other legislative and regulatory proposals aimed at changing the pharmaceutical industry. In particular, California has enacted legislation that requires
development of an electronic pedigree to track and trace each prescription drug at the saleable unit level through the distribution system. California's electronic pedigree requirement is scheduled to take effect in January 2015.
Compliance with California and future federal or state electronic pedigree requirements may increase our operational expenses and impose significant administrative burdens. As a result of these and other new proposals, we may determine to change our
current manner of operation, provide additional benefits or change our contract arrangements, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Managed care organizations are increasingly challenging the prices charged for medical products and services and, in some
cases, imposing restrictions on the coverage of particular drugs. Many managed care organizations negotiate the price of medical services and products and develop formularies which establish pricing and reimbursement levels. Exclusion of a product
from a formulary can lead to its sharply reduced usage in the managed care organization's patient population. The process for obtaining coverage can be lengthy and costly, and we expect that it could take several months before a particular
payor initially reviews our product and makes a decision with respect to coverage. For example, third-party payors may require cost-benefit analysis data from us in order to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of OFIRMEV or any other product we might
bring to market. For any individual third-party payor, we may not be able to provide data sufficient to gain reimbursement on a similar or preferred basis to competitive products, or at all.
Our reporting and payment obligations under the Medicaid rebate program and other governmental purchasing and
rebate programs are complex and may involve subjective decisions, and any failure to comply with those obligations could subject us to penalties and sanctions, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business and financial
condition.
As a condition of reimbursement by various federal and state healthcare programs, we must
calculate and report certain pricing information to federal and state healthcare agencies. The regulations regarding reporting and payment obligations with respect to Medicaid reimbursement and rebates and other governmental programs are complex.
Our calculations and methodologies are subject to review and challenge by the applicable governmental agencies, and it is possible that such reviews could result in material changes. In addition, because our processes for these calculations and the
judgments involved in making these calculations involve subjective decisions and complex methodologies, these calculations are subject to the risk of errors. Any failure to comply with the government reporting and payment obligations could result in
civil and/or criminal sanctions.
We may never receive approval outside of the U.S. to commercialize
OFIRMEV or any other product candidates we may acquire.
Our rights to OFIRMEV include Canada, as well
as the U.S. In order to market OFIRMEV and any other product candidates we may acquire in Canada or other jurisdictions outside of the U.S., we must comply with numerous and varying regulatory requirements of other countries regarding non-clinical
testing, manufacturing, clinical safety and efficacy. Approval procedures vary among countries and can involve additional product testing and additional administrative review periods. The time required to obtain approval in other countries might
differ from that required to obtain FDA approval. The regulatory approval process in other countries may include all of the risks detailed above regarding FDA approval in the U.S. as well as other risks. Regulatory approval in one country does not
ensure regulatory approval in another, but a failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approval in one country may have a negative effect on the regulatory process in others. Failure to obtain regulatory approval in other countries or any delay or
setback in obtaining such approval could have the same adverse effects detailed above regarding FDA approval in the U.S. As described above, such effects include the risks that OFIRMEV and any other products may not be approved for all indications
requested, which could limit the uses of our products and have an adverse effect on product sales and potential royalties, and that any regulatory approvals we may obtain may be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for which our products may
be marketed or require us to perform costly, post-marketing follow-up studies.
Public concern regarding
the safety of drug products such as OFIRMEV could, result in new requirements from regulatory agencies to include unfavorable information in our labeling, or require us to undertake other activities that may entail additional costs.*
In light of widely publicized events concerning the safety risk of certain drug products, the
FDA, members of Congress, the Government Accountability Office, medical professionals and the general public have raised concerns about potential drug safety issues. These events have resulted in the withdrawal of drug products, revisions to
drug labeling that further limit use of the drug products and the establishment of risk management programs that may, for example, restrict distribution of drug products after approval. The Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007, or
FDAAA, grants significant expanded authority to the FDA, much of which is aimed at improving the safety of drug products before and after approval. In particular, the new law authorizes the FDA to, among other things, require post-approval studies
and clinical trials, mandate changes to drug labeling to reflect new safety information and require risk evaluation and mitigation strategies for certain drugs, including certain currently approved drugs. It also significantly expands the federal
government's clinical trial registry and results databank, which we expect will result in significantly increased government oversight of clinical trials. Under the FDAAA, companies that violate these and other provisions of the new law are
subject to substantial civil monetary penalties, among other regulatory, civil and criminal penalties. Data from clinical trials may receive greater scrutiny, particularly with respect to safety, which may make the FDA or other regulatory
authorities more likely to require additional preclinical studies or clinical trials.

If the government or third-party payors fail to provide coverage and adequate coverage and payment rates for OFIRMEV
or any future products we may license or acquire, if any, or if hospitals choose to use therapies that are less expensive, our revenue and prospects for profitability will be limited.
In both domestic and foreign markets, our anticipated sales of OFIRMEV or any future products will depend in part upon
the availability of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors. Such third-party payors include government health programs such as Medicare, managed care providers, private health insurers and other organizations. In particular, many U.S.
hospitals receive a fixed reimbursement amount per procedure for certain surgeries and other treatment therapies they perform. Because this amount may not be based on the actual expenses the hospital incurs, hospitals may choose to use therapies
which are less expensive when compared to our product candidates. Accordingly, OFIRMEV or any other product candidates that we may in-license or acquire, if approved, will face competition from other therapies and drugs for these limited hospital
financial resources. We may need to conduct post-marketing studies in order to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of any future products to the satisfaction of hospitals, other target customers and their third-party payors. Such studies might
require us to commit a significant amount of management time and financial and other resources. Our future products might not ultimately be considered cost-effective. Adequate third-party coverage and reimbursement might not be available to enable
us to maintain price levels sufficient to realize an appropriate return on investment in product development.
Governments continue to propose and pass legislation designed to reduce the cost of healthcare. In some foreign markets,
such as Canada, the government controls the pricing of prescription pharmaceuticals. In these countries, pricing negotiated with governmental authorities can take six to 12 months or longer after the receipt of regulatory marketing approval for
a product. In the U.S., we expect that there will be an increase in federal and state proposals to implement pricing controls for prescription drugs, and new legislation and regulations affecting the pricing of pharmaceuticals might change before
our product candidates are approved for marketing. For example, the U.S. Congress is considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals with an objective of ultimately reducing healthcare costs. Legislative and regulatory actions under
consideration in the U.S. include health care reform initiatives that could significantly alter the market for pharmaceuticals (such as private health insurance expansion, the creation of competing public health insurance plans, a variety of
proposals that would reduce government expenditures for prescription drugs to help finance healthcare reform, or the eventual transition of the U.S. multiple payer system to a single payer system). Other actions under consideration include proposals
for government intervention in pharmaceutical pricing, changes in government reimbursement, an accelerated approval process for "follow-on" biologics, legalization of commercial drug importation into the U.S., and involuntary approval of
medicines for over-the-counter, or OTC, use. Such legislation could result in the exclusion of OFIRMEV and any other product candidates we may license or acquire from coverage and reimbursement programs, or lower the prices we would receive for our
product candidates. Our revenues from the sale of OFIRMEV or any other approved products could be significantly reduced as a result of these cost containment measures and reforms, which would negatively impact our profitability.
If we breach any of the agreements under which we license rights to OFIRMEV from others, we could lose the ability
to continue to develop and commercialize this product candidate.
In March 2006, we entered into an
exclusive license agreement with BMS relating to OFIRMEV for the U.S. and Canada. Because we have in-licensed the rights to this product candidate from a third party, if there is any dispute between us and our licensor regarding our rights under our
license agreement, our ability to commercialize this product candidate may be adversely affected. Any uncured, material breach under our license agreement could result in our loss of exclusive rights to OFIRMEV and may lead to a complete termination
of our related commercialization efforts.
If BMS breaches the underlying agreement under which we
sublicense the rights to OFIRMEV, we could lose the ability to develop and commercialize this product candidate.
Our license for OFIRMEV is subject to the terms and conditions of a license from SCR Pharmatop to BMS, under which BMS originally licensed the intellectual property rights covering OFIRMEV. If BMS
materially breaches the terms or conditions of this underlying license from SCR Pharmatop, and neither BMS nor we adequately cure that breach, or BMS and SCR Pharmatop otherwise become involved in a dispute, the breach by BMS or disputes with SCR
Pharmatop could result in a loss of, or other material adverse impact on, our rights under our license agreement with BMS. While we would expect to exercise all reasonable rights and remedies available to us, including seeking to cure any breach by
BMS, and otherwise seek to preserve our rights under the patents licensed by SCR Pharmatop, we may not be able to do so in a timely manner, at an acceptable cost or at all. Any uncured, material breach under the license from SCR Pharmatop to BMS
could result in our loss of exclusive rights to OFIRMEV and may lead to a complete termination of our commercialization efforts for OFIRMEV.

We will need to increase the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing growth.*
As of September 30, 2010, we had 83 employees. The commercialization of OFIRMEV will require
that we substantially expand our managerial, commercial, financial and other personnel resources. Our management, personnel, systems and facilities currently in place may not be adequate to support this future growth, and we may not be
able to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, particularly for sales and marketing positions, due to competition for personnel among pharmaceutical businesses, and the failure to do so could have a significant negative impact on our
future product revenues and business results. Our need to effectively manage our operations, growth and various projects requires that we:
•
complete the hiring and training of an effective commercial organization in anticipation of the commercialization of OFIRMEV, and establish
appropriate systems, policies and infrastructure to support that organization;
•
ensure that our consultants and other service providers successfully carry out their contractual obligations, provide high quality results, and meet
expected deadlines;
•
continue to carry out our own contractual obligations to our licensors and other third parties; and
•
continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures.
We may be unable to successfully implement these tasks on a larger scale and, accordingly, may not achieve our development
and commercialization goals.
We may not be able to manage our business effectively if we are unable to
attract and retain key personnel.
We may not be able to attract or retain qualified management and
commercial, scientific and clinical personnel in the future due to the intense competition for qualified personnel among biotechnology, pharmaceutical and other businesses, particularly in the San Diego, California area. If we are not able to
attract and retain necessary personnel to accomplish our business objectives, we may experience constraints that will significantly impede the achievement of our development objectives, our ability to raise additional capital and our ability to
implement our business strategy.
Our industry has experienced a high rate of turnover of management personnel
in recent years. We are highly dependent on the product acquisition, development, regulatory and commercialization expertise of our senior management, particularly Theodore R. Schroeder, our President and Chief Executive Officer, James
B. Breitmeyer, M.D., Ph.D., our Executive Vice President, Development and Chief Medical Officer, William R. LaRue, our Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Assistant Secretary, and Scott A. Byrd, our Senior
Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. If we lose one or more of these key employees, our ability to successfully implement our business strategy could be seriously harmed. Replacing key employees may be difficult and may take an extended
period of time because of the limited number of individuals in our industry with the breadth of skills and experience required to develop, gain regulatory approval of and commercialize products successfully. Competition to hire from this limited
pool is intense, and we may be unable to hire, train, retain or motivate these additional key personnel. Although we have employment agreements with Mr. Schroeder, Dr. Breitmeyer, Mr. LaRue and Mr. Byrd, these agreements are
terminable at will at any time with or without notice and, therefore, we may not be able to retain their services as expected.
In addition, we have scientific and clinical advisors who assist us in our product development and clinical strategies. These advisors are not our employees and may have commitments to, or consulting or
advisory contracts with, other entities that may limit their availability to us, or may have arrangements with other companies to assist in the development of products that may compete with ours.

We face potential product liability exposure, and if successful claims are brought against us, we may incur
substantial liability for OFIRMEV or other product candidates we may license or acquire and may have to limit their commercialization.*
The use of OFIRMEV and any other product candidates we may license or acquire in clinical trials and the sale of any products for which we obtain marketing approval expose us to the risk of product
liability claims. Product liability claims might be brought against us by consumers, health care providers or others using, administering or selling our products. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against these claims, we will incur
substantial liabilities. Regardless of merit or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:
•
decreased demand for our product candidates;
•
loss of revenues;
•
impairment of our business reputation;
•
costs of related litigation;
•
substantial monetary awards to patients or other claimants;
•
significant distraction of our scientific and management personnel who may be involved in our efforts to defend against such claims; and
•
the inability to commercialize our product candidates.
Although we currently have product liability insurance coverage for our clinical trials and intend to have commercial
product liability coverage in place prior to the first commercial sale of OFIRMEV, insurance coverage is becoming increasingly expensive and we may be unable to obtain commercially reasonable product liability insurance coverage at a reasonable cost
or in sufficient amounts to protect us against losses due to liability. On occasion, large judgments have been awarded in class action lawsuits based on drugs that had unanticipated side effects. Any commercial product liability insurance coverage
we may obtain may not reimburse us or may not be sufficient to reimburse us for any expenses or losses we may suffer. A successful product liability claim or series of claims brought against us could cause our stock price to fall and, if judgments
exceed our insurance coverage, could decrease our cash and adversely affect our business.
Our business
and operations would suffer in the event of system failures.
Despite the implementation of security
measures, our internal computer systems are vulnerable to damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, natural disasters, terrorism, war and telecommunication and electrical failures. Any system failure, accident or security breach that causes
interruptions in our operations could result in a material disruption of our drug development programs. To the extent that any disruption or security breach results in a loss or damage to our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of
confidential or proprietary information, we may incur liability and the commercialization of OFIRMEV may be delayed.
Our future growth depends on our ability to identify and acquire or in-license products and if we do not successfully identify and acquire or in-license related product candidates or integrate them
into our operations, we may have limited growth opportunities.
An important part of our business
strategy is to continue to develop a pipeline of product candidates by acquiring or in-licensing products, businesses or technologies that we believe are a strategic fit with our focus on the hospital marketplace. For example, we recently signed an
agreement granting us an option to acquire Incline Therapeutics, Inc. As part of our efforts to acquire businesses such as Incline Therapeutics, Inc., or to in-license products, we conduct technical, business and legal due diligence with the goal of
identifying and evaluating material risks involved in such transactions, which may include:
•
exposure to unknown liabilities;
•
disruption of our business and diversion of our management's time and attention to develop acquired products or technologies;
•
difficulty or inability to secure financing to fund development activities for such acquired or in-licensed technologies in the current economic
environment;
36
Table of Contents
•
incurrence of substantial debt or dilutive issuances of securities to pay for acquisitions;
•
higher than expected acquisition and integration costs;
•
increased amortization expenses;
•
difficulty and cost in combining the operations and personnel of any acquired businesses with our operations and personnel;
•
effectiveness of the acquired business's internal controls and procedures;
•
impairment of relationships with key suppliers or customers of any acquired businesses due to changes in management and ownership; and
•
inability to retain key employees of any acquired businesses.
Additionally, in connection with any such acquisition or in-licensing transaction, we must estimate the value of the
transaction by making certain assumptions about, among other things, likelihood of regulatory approval for unapproved products and the market potential for marketed products and/or product candidates. Ultimately, our assumptions may prove to be
incorrect, which could cause us to fail to realize the anticipated benefits of a transaction. Despite our efforts, we ultimately may be unsuccessful in ascertaining or evaluating all such risks and, as a result, we might not realize the intended
advantages of the acquisition or in-licensing transaction. If we fail to realize the expected benefits from the transactions we have consummated or may consummate in the future, the results of our operations and financial condition could be
adversely affected.
It cannot be assured that, following an acquisition, we will achieve revenues, specific
net income or loss levels that justify the acquisition or that the acquisition will result in increased earnings, or reduced losses, for the combined company in any future period. Moreover, we may need to raise additional funds through public or
private debt or equity financings to acquire any businesses, which would result in dilution for stockholders or the incurrence of indebtedness. We may not be able to operate acquired businesses profitably or otherwise implement our growth strategy
successfully.
We have limited resources to identify and execute the acquisition or in-licensing of
third-party products, businesses and technologies and integrate them into our current infrastructure. In particular, we may compete with larger pharmaceutical companies and other competitors in our efforts to establish new collaborations and
in-licensing opportunities. These competitors likely will have access to greater financial resources than us and may have greater expertise in identifying and evaluating new opportunities. Moreover, we may devote resources to potential acquisitions
or in-licensing opportunities that are never completed, or we may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of such efforts.
Our business involves the use of hazardous materials and we and our third-party manufacturer must comply with environmental laws and regulations, which can be expensive and restrict how we do
business.
Our third-party manufacturer's activities and, to a lesser extent, our own activities
involve the controlled storage, use and disposal of hazardous materials, including the components of OFIRMEV and other hazardous compounds. We and our manufacturer are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the use,
manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of these hazardous materials. Although we believe that the safety procedures for handling and disposing of these materials comply with the standards prescribed by these laws and regulations, we cannot
eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials. In the event of an accident, state or federal authorities may curtail our use of these materials and interrupt our business operations.
We may not be able to exercise our recently obtained option to acquire Incline and, even if we are able to, we may
fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction.
We may not have sufficient capital to
exercise our option to acquire Incline. If we elect to exercise the option, the payment of up to $135.0 million during the first option period, or up to $228.0 million, plus up to $57.0 million upon FDA approval of IONSYS, during the second option
period, would require us to raise additional funds to finance the acquisition. Raising such additional funds or paying up to 50% of the applicable option exercise payment in the form of our common stock would result in the incurrence of additional
indebtedness or dilution for our stockholders.
37
Table of Contents
We are
relying on Incline to develop and obtain regulatory approval for IONSYS. Although Ted Schroeder, our President and CEO, serves as our representative on Incline's board of directors, and we have formed a joint development committee to oversee
the global development of, and pursuit of regulatory approval for, IONSYS, Incline will remain responsible for these activities unless and until we elect to acquire Incline. We do not control these development activities and therefore cannot be
certain that they will be accomplished in a satisfactory manner. For example, Incline may breach one of the agreements under which it has licensed the rights to IONSYS, and lose the ability to continue to develop and commercialize this product
candidate. In addition, Incline's efforts to develop improved patient safety features for IONSYS may be unsuccessful, or Incline may not develop a risk evaluation and management strategy for IONSYS that is acceptable to the FDA.
If we elect to acquire Incline, there will be a number of risks involved in the acquisition, including the potential for
our management's attention to be diverted from, or for disruptions to affect, our ongoing business, and difficulties and expenses related to integrating the acquired business and retaining all or part of its personnel. In addition, there is the
risk that our valuation assumptions for Incline may turn out to be erroneous or inappropriate due to unforeseen circumstances, which could result in our having overvalued Incline, or that the contemplated benefits of acquiring Incline do not
materialize as planned. We cannot assure you that, if we acquire Incline, the acquisition will result in increased earnings or reduced losses for the combined company in any future period. The individual or combined effects of these risks could have
a material adverse effect on our business.
Risks Related to Intellectual Property
The patent rights that we have in-licensed covering OFIRMEV are limited to a specific intravenous formulation
of acetaminophen, and our market opportunity for this product candidate may be limited by the lack of patent protection for the active ingredient itself and other formulations that may be developed by competitors.
The active ingredient in OFIRMEV is acetaminophen. Patent protection for the acetaminophen molecule itself in the
territories licensed to us, which include the U.S. and Canada, is not available. As a result, competitors who obtain the requisite regulatory approval can offer products with the same active ingredient as OFIRMEV so long as the competitors do
not infringe any process or formulation patents that we have in-licensed from BMS and its licensor, SCR Pharmatop. We are aware of a number of third-party patents in the U.S. that claim methods of making acetaminophen. If a supplier of the API
for our OFIRMEV product candidate is found to infringe any of these method patents covering acetaminophen, our supply of the API could be delayed and we may be required to locate an alternative supplier. We are also aware of several
U.S. and Canadian patents and patent applications covering various potential injectable formulations of acetaminophen as well as methods of making and using these potential formulations. For example, Injectapap, a liquid formulation of
acetaminophen for intramuscular injection, was approved by the FDA for the reduction of fever in adults in March 1986, although it was subsequently withdrawn from the market by McNeil Pharmaceutical in July 1986.
The number of patents and patent applications covering products in the same field as OFIRMEV indicates that
competitors have sought to develop and may seek to market competing formulations that may not be covered by our licensed patents and patent applications. In addition, while a notice of allowance by the Canadian Patent Office was recently issued with
respect to one of the patent applications that we have in-licensed for Canada, another is currently being examined, and may ultimately issue with claims that cover less than the corresponding in-licensed U.S. patents, or simply not issue at
all. The commercial opportunity for OFIRMEV could be significantly harmed if competitors are able to develop an alternative formulation of acetaminophen outside the scope of our in-licensed patents.
38
Table of Contents
One or
more third parties may challenge the patents covering OFIRMEV, which could result in the invalidation or unenforceability of some or all of the relevant patent claims. For example, if a third party files an Abbreviated New Drug Application, or ANDA,
for a generic drug product containing acetaminophen and relies in whole or in part on studies conducted by or for us, the third party will be required to certify to the FDA that either: (1) there is no patent information listed in the
FDA's Orange Book with respect to our NDA for OFIRMEV; (2) the patents listed in the Orange Book have expired; (3) the listed patents have not expired, but will expire on a particular date and approval is sought after patent
expiration; or (4) the listed patents are invalid or will not be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of the third-party's generic drug product. A certification that the new product will not infringe the Orange Book-listed patents for
OFIRMEV, or that such patents are invalid, is called a paragraph IV certification. If the third party submits a paragraph IV certification to the FDA, a notice of the paragraph IV certification must also be sent to us once the third-party's
ANDA is accepted for filing by the FDA. We may then initiate a lawsuit to defend the patents identified in the notice. The filing of a patent infringement lawsuit within 45 days of receipt of the notice automatically prevents the FDA from
approving the third-party's ANDA until the earliest of 30 months or the date on which the patent expires, the lawsuit is settled, or the court reaches a decision in the infringement lawsuit in favor of the third party, or such shorter or
longer period as the court may order because either party to the action failed to reasonably cooperate in expediting the action. If we do not file a patent infringement lawsuit within the required 45-day period, the third-party's ANDA will not
be subject to the 30-month stay. Litigation or other proceedings to enforce or defend intellectual property rights are often very complex in nature, may be very expensive and time-consuming, may divert our management's attention from our core
business, and may result in unfavorable results that could adversely impact our ability to prevent third parties from competing with our products.
We depend on our licensors for the maintenance and enforcement of our intellectual property and have limited control, if any, over the amount or timing of resources that our licensors devotes on our
behalf, or whether any financial difficulties experienced by our licensors could result in their unwillingness or inability to secure, maintain and enforce patents protecting our intellectual property.
We depend on our licensor, BMS, and its licensor SCR Pharmatop, to protect the proprietary rights covering OFIRMEV
and we have limited, if any, control over the amount or timing of resources that BMS or SCR Pharmatop devote on our behalf, or the priority they place on, maintaining patent rights and prosecuting patent applications to our advantage.
Either BMS or SCR Pharmatop, depending on the patent or application, is responsible for maintaining issued patents and
prosecuting patent applications. SCR Pharmatop is under a contractual obligation to BMS to diligently prosecute their patent applications and allow BMS the opportunity to consult, review and comment on patent office communications. However, we
cannot be sure that SCR Pharmatop will perform as required. Should BMS decide it no longer wants to maintain any of the patents licensed to us, BMS is required to afford us the opportunity to do so at our expense. However, we cannot be sure that BMS
will perform as required. If BMS does not perform, and if we do not assume the maintenance of the licensed patents in sufficient time to make required payments or filings with the appropriate governmental agencies, we risk losing the benefit of all
or some of those patent rights. Moreover, either BMS or SCR Pharmatop may experience serious difficulties related to their overall business or financial stability, and they may be unwilling or unable to continue to expend the financial resources
required to maintain and prosecute these patents and patent applications. While we intend to take actions reasonably necessary to enforce our patent rights, we depend, in part, on our licensors to protect a substantial portion of our proprietary
rights. BMS has the first right to prosecute a third-party infringement of the SCR Pharmatop patents, and has the sole right to prosecute third-party infringement of the BMS patents. We will have the ability to cooperate with BMS in third-party
infringement suits involving the SCR Pharmatop patents. It is possible that SCR Pharmatop or BMS could take some action or fail to take some action that could harm the SCR Pharmatop patents. In certain instances, we may be allowed to pursue the
infringement claim ourselves.
Our licensors may also be notified of alleged infringement and be sued for
infringement of third-party patents or other proprietary rights. We may have limited, if any, control or involvement over the defense of these claims, and our licensors could be subject to injunctions and temporary or permanent exclusionary orders
in the U.S. or other countries. Our licensors are not obligated to defend or assist in our defense against third-party claims of infringement. We have limited, if any, control over the amount or timing of resources, if any, that our licensors devote
on our behalf or the priority they place on defense of such third-party claims of infringement.
For a
third-party challenge to the SCR Pharmatop in-licensed patents relating to OFIRMEV, we will have some ability to participate in either SCR Pharmatop's or BMS' defense thereof. In the case that neither party elects to defend the
third-party challenge, we may have the opportunity to defend it. For a third-party challenge to the in-licensed BMS patents relating to OFIRMEV, BMS has the sole right to defend such challenge. If it chooses not to defend such challenge, we may
have the right to renegotiate or terminate the license regarding the in-licensed BMS patents.
39
Table of Contents
Because of the uncertainty inherent in any patent or other litigation involving proprietary rights, we or our licensors
may not be successful in defending claims of intellectual property infringement by third parties, which could have a material adverse affect on our results of operations. Regardless of the outcome of any litigation, defending the litigation may be
expensive, time-consuming and distracting to management.
Because it is difficult and costly to protect
our proprietary rights, we may not be able to ensure their protection.
Our commercial success will
depend in part on obtaining and maintaining patent protection and trade secret protection for OFIRMEV or any other product candidates that we may license or acquire and the methods we use to manufacture them, as well as successfully defending
these patents and trade secrets against third-party challenges. We will only be able to protect our technologies from unauthorized use by third parties to the extent that valid and enforceable patents or trade secrets cover them.
The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and
factual questions for which important legal principles remain unresolved. No consistent policy regarding the breadth of claims allowed in pharmaceutical or biotechnology patents has emerged to date in the U.S. The patent situation outside the U.S.
is even more uncertain. Changes in either the patent laws or in interpretations of patent laws in the U.S. and other countries may diminish the value of our intellectual property. Accordingly, we cannot predict the breadth of claims that may be
allowed or enforced in our patents or in third-party patents.
The degree of future protection for our
proprietary rights is uncertain, because legal means afford only limited protection and may not adequately protect our rights or permit us to gain or keep our competitive advantage. For example:
•
our licensors might not have been the first to make the inventions covered by each of our pending patent applications and issued patents;
•
our licensors might not have been the first to file patent applications for these inventions;
•
others may independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate any of our product candidates or technologies;
•
it is possible that none of the pending patent applications licensed to us will result in issued patents;
•
the issued patents covering our product candidates may not provide a basis for commercially viable active products, may not provide us with any
competitive advantages, or may be challenged by third parties;
•
we may not develop additional proprietary technologies that are patentable; or
•
patents of others may have an adverse effect on our business.
Patent applications in the U.S. are maintained in confidence for at least 18 months after their earliest effective
filing date. Consequently, we cannot be certain that our licensors were the first to invent or the first to file patent applications on our product candidates. In the event that a third party has also filed a U.S. patent application relating to
our product candidates or a similar invention, we may have to participate in interference proceedings declared by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to determine priority of invention in the U.S. The costs of these proceedings could be
substantial and it is possible that our efforts would be unsuccessful, resulting in a material adverse effect on our U.S. patent position. Furthermore, we may not have identified all U.S. and foreign patents or published applications that
affect our business either by blocking our ability to commercialize our drugs or by covering similar technologies that affect our drug market.
In addition, some countries, including many in Europe, do not grant patent claims directed to methods of treating humans, and in these countries patent protection may not be available at all to protect
our product candidates. Even if patents issue, we cannot guarantee that the claims of those patents will be valid and enforceable or provide us with any significant protection against competitive products, or otherwise be commercially valuable to
us.
We also rely on trade secrets to protect our technology, particularly where we do not believe patent
protection is appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. While we use reasonable efforts to protect our trade secrets, our licensors, employees, consultants, contractors, outside scientific collaborators and other
advisors may unintentionally or willfully disclose our information to competitors. Enforcing a claim that a third party illegally obtained and is using our trade secrets is expensive and time consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition,
courts outside the U.S. are sometimes less willing to protect trade secrets. Moreover, our competitors may independently develop equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how.
40
Table of Contents
If our
licensors or we fail to obtain or maintain patent protection or trade secret protection for OFIRMEV or any other product candidate we may license or acquire, third parties could use our proprietary information, which could impair our ability to
compete in the market and adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and achieve profitability.
If we are sued for infringing intellectual property rights of third parties, it will be costly and time consuming,
and an unfavorable outcome in any litigation would harm our business.
Our ability to develop,
manufacture, market and sell OFIRMEV or any other product candidates that we may license or acquire depends upon our ability to avoid infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. Numerous U.S. and foreign issued patents and pending patent
applications, which are owned by third parties, exist in the general fields of pain treatment and cover the use of numerous compounds and formulations in our targeted markets. Because of the uncertainty inherent in any patent or other litigation
involving proprietary rights, we and our licensors may not be successful in defending intellectual property claims by third parties, which could have a material adverse affect on our results of operations. Regardless of the outcome of any
litigation, defending the litigation may be expensive, time-consuming and distracting to management. In addition, because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be currently pending applications, unknown to us, which may later
result in issued patents that OFIRMEV may infringe. There could also be existing patents of which we are not aware that OFIRMEV may inadvertently infringe.
There is a substantial amount of litigation involving patent and other intellectual property rights in the biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries generally. If a third party claims that we
infringe on their products or technology, we could face a number of issues, including:
•
infringement and other intellectual property claims which, with or without merit, can be expensive and time consuming to litigate and can divert
management's attention from our core business;
•
substantial damages for past infringement which we may have to pay if a court decides that our product infringes on a competitor's patent;
•
a court prohibiting us from selling or licensing our product unless the patent holder licenses the patent to us, which it would not be required to
do;
•
if a license is available from a patent holder, we may have to pay substantial royalties or grant cross licenses to our patents; and
•
redesigning our processes so they do not infringe, which may not be possible or could require substantial funds and time.
We may be subject to claims that our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed
alleged trade secrets of their former employers.
As is common in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical
industry, we employ individuals who were previously employed at other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies, including our competitors or potential competitors. Although no claims against us are currently pending, we may be subject to claims
that these employees or we have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of their former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. Even if we are successful in defending
against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management.

Risks Related to
Our Finances and Capital Requirements
We have incurred significant operating losses since our
inception and anticipate that we will incur continued losses for the foreseeable future.
We are a
development stage company with a limited operating history. We have focused primarily on in-licensing and developing OFIRMEV and our former product candidate, omiganan pentahydrochloride, with the goal of supporting regulatory approval for these
product candidates. We have incurred losses in each year since our inception in May 2004, including net losses of $45.5 million, $57.1 million and $51.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. As of September 30, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of $254.9 million. These losses, among other things, have had and will continue to have an adverse effect on our stockholders' equity and working capital. For example,
our development expenses decreased in 2009 due to the completion of our clinical development program for OFIRMEV, and the discontinuation of our development program for our omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate. However, we
incurred increased pre-commercialization expenses during 2009 as we prepared for the potential market launch of OFIRMEV, and we expect to incur significant sales, marketing and outsourced manufacturing expenses, as well as expenses related to
the commercialization of this product. As a result, we expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing pharmaceutical products, we are
unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if at all.
We
currently have no source of revenue and may never be profitable.
Our ability to become profitable
depends upon our ability to generate revenue. To date, we have not generated any revenue, and we do not know when, or if, we will generate any revenue. Our ability to generate revenue depends on a number of factors, including, but not limited to,
our ability to:
•
effectively commercialize OFIRMEV;
•
obtain regulatory approval for any other product candidates that we may license or acquire;
•
manufacture commercial quantities of OFIRMEV at acceptable cost levels; and
•
complete the development of our commercial organization and the supporting infrastructure required to successfully market and sell OFIRMEV.
We anticipate incurring significant costs associated with our efforts to commercialize
OFIRMEV. We also do not anticipate that we will achieve profitability for a period of time after generating material revenues, if ever. If we are unable to generate revenues, we will not become profitable and may be unable to continue operations
without continued funding.
Our short operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and
prospects.
We were incorporated in May 2004 and have only been conducting operations with
respect to OFIRMEV since March 2006 and our discontinued omiganan pentahydrochloride product candidate since July 2004. Our operations to date have been limited to organizing and staffing our company, in-licensing and conducting product
development activities, including clinical trials and manufacturing development activities, for OFIRMEV and omiganan pentahydrochloride. Further, in 2009 we began to establish our commercial infrastructure for OFIRMEV. We have not yet demonstrated
an ability to successfully commercialize a product candidate. Consequently, any predictions about our future performance may not be as accurate as they could be if we had a history of successfully commercializing pharmaceutical products.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly.
We expect our operating results to be subject to quarterly fluctuations. Our net loss and other operating results will be
affected by numerous factors, including:
•
our ability to complete the establishment of our necessary commercial infrastructure to launch OFIRMEV without substantial delays, including hiring
sales and marketing personnel and implementing agreements with third parties for warehousing, distribution, cash collection and related commercial activities;
42
Table of Contents
•
our execution of other collaborative, licensing or similar arrangements and the timing of payments we may make or receive under these arrangements;
•
variations in the level of expenses related to our development programs for any future product candidates;
•
any product liability or intellectual property infringement lawsuits in which we may become involved;
•
regulatory developments affecting OFIRMEV or the product candidates of our competitors; and
•
the level of underlying hospital demand for OFIRMEV and wholesalers' buying patterns.
If our quarterly or annual operating results fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the price
of our common stock could decline substantially. Furthermore, any quarterly or annual fluctuations in our operating results may, in turn, cause the price of our stock to fluctuate substantially. We believe that quarterly comparisons of our financial
results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of our future performance.
Raising additional funds by issuing securities may cause dilution to existing stockholders and raising funds through lending and licensing arrangements may restrict our operations or require us to
relinquish proprietary rights.
To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity
securities, our existing stockholders' ownership will be diluted. If we raise additional funds through licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish potentially valuable rights to our potential products or proprietary technologies,
or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. Any debt financing we enter into may involve covenants that restrict our operations. These restrictive covenants may include limitations on additional borrowing and specific restrictions on
the use of our assets as well as prohibitions on our ability to create liens, pay dividends, redeem our stock or make investments. For example, in February 2006, we entered into a $7.0 million loan and security agreement with Silicon
Valley Bank and Oxford Finance Corporation, and in December 2007, we amended this agreement and secured an additional $15.0 million loan from the same parties and GE Business Financial Services Inc. In June 2010, we replaced our loan
facility with a new loan of up to $30.0 million from the same loan syndicate. We drew the first advance of $20.0 million under this loan in June, 2010, and the second advance of $10.0 million was made available to us on November 2, 2010, upon FDA
approval of OFIRMEV.
Our current loan and security agreement contains a variety of affirmative and negative
covenants, including required financial reporting, limitations on the disposition of assets other than in the ordinary course of business, limitations on the incurrence of additional debt and other requirements. To secure our performance of our
obligations under our current loan and security agreement, we pledged substantially all of our assets other than intellectual property assets, to the lenders. Our failure to comply with the covenants in the current loan and security agreement
could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all or a substantial portion of our debt and potential foreclosure on the assets pledged to secure the debt.
We will continue to incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our
management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
As a public
company, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, or NASDAQ. These rules impose various requirements on
public companies, including requiring establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and appropriate corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel have devoted and will continue to devote a
substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, these rules and regulations
make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a
result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as executive officers.
43
Table of Contents
The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal controls for financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. As a result, we are required to periodically perform an evaluation of our internal
controls over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of those controls, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Additionally, our independent auditors are required to perform a similar evaluation
and report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. These efforts to comply with Section 404 and related regulations have required, and continue to require, the commitment of significant financial and managerial
resources. While we anticipate maintaining the integrity of our internal controls over financial reporting and all other aspects of Section 404, we cannot be certain that a material weakness will not be identified when we test the effectiveness
of our control systems in the future. If a material weakness is identified, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by NASDAQ, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources,
costly litigation or a loss of public confidence in our internal controls, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of our stock.
The use of our net operating loss carryforwards and research tax credits may be limited.
Our net operating loss carryforwards and research and development tax credits may expire and not be used. As of December 31, 2009, we have generated federal and state net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $171.4 million and $170.6 million, respectively. We also have federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Our net operating loss
carryforwards will begin expiring in 2024 for federal purposes and 2014 for state purposes if we have not used them prior to that time, and our federal tax credits will begin expiring in 2024 unless previously used. Our state tax credits
carryforward indefinitely. Additionally, our ability to use any net operating loss and credit carryforwards to offset taxable income in the future will be limited under Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383 if we have a cumulative change
in ownership of more than 50% within a three-year period. We have not completed an analysis as to whether such a change of ownership has occurred, but in such an event, may be limited to the amount of net operating loss carryforwards and research
tax credits that could be utilized annually in the future to offset taxable income. Any such annual limitation may significantly reduce the utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and research tax credits before they expire. In addition,
California and certain states have suspended use of net operating loss carryforwards for certain taxable years, and other states are considering similar measures. As a result, we may incur higher state income tax expense in the future. Depending on
our future tax position, continued suspension of our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards in states in which we are subject to income tax could have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Our results of operations and liquidity needs could be materially negatively affected by market fluctuations and
economic downturn.
Our results of operations could be materially negatively affected by economic
conditions generally, both in the U.S. and elsewhere around the world. Continuing concerns over inflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, the U.S. mortgage market and a declining residential real estate
market in the U.S. have contributed to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the economy and the markets going forward. These factors, combined with volatile oil prices, declining business and consumer confidence and increased
unemployment, have precipitated an economic recession and fears of a possible depression. Domestic and international equity markets continue to experience heightened volatility and turmoil. These events and the continuing market upheavals may have
an adverse effect on us. In the event of a continuing market downturn, our results of operations could be adversely affected by those factors in many ways, including making it more difficult for us to raise funds if necessary, and our stock price
may further decline.

Risks Relating to
Securities Markets and Investment in Our Stock
There may not be a viable public market for our
common stock.
Our common stock had not been publicly traded prior to our initial public offering,
which was completed in October 2006, and an active trading market may not be sustained. We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock, and we currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to
support operations and finance the growth and development of our business and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, our current loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, Oxford
Finance Corporation and GE Business Financial Services Inc. restricts our ability to pay cash dividends. Therefore, investors will have to rely on appreciation in our stock price and a liquid trading market in order to achieve a gain on their
investment.
Our stock may be subject to substantial price and volume fluctuations due to a number of
factors, many of which are beyond our control and may prevent our stockholders from reselling our common stock at a profit.
The market prices for securities of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies have historically been highly volatile, and the market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume
fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. For example, the volatility in the overall capital markets reached unprecedented levels during 2008 and 2009, which affected most equity securities. Similar market
volatility could reduce the market price of our common stock in spite of our operating performance. Further, high stock price volatility could result in higher stock-based compensation expense.
The trading prices for our common stock during the 52 weeks ending September 30, 2010 ranged from a high of $11.76
to a low of $6.29. The market price of our common stock is likely to continue to be highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially due to many factors, including:
•
announcements concerning the progress of our efforts to commercialize OFIRMEV, including any delays in launching this product candidate;
•
market conditions in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors or the economy as a whole;
•
price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market;
•
the failure of OFIRMEV to achieve commercial success;
•
announcements of the introduction of new products by us or our competitors;
•
the filing of any ANDAs relating to OFIRMEV and any challenges to our patents and other intellectual property rights;
•
developments concerning product development results or intellectual property rights of others;
•
litigation or public concern about the safety of our potential products;
•
actual fluctuations in our quarterly operating results, and concerns by investors that such fluctuations may occur in the future;
•
deviations in our operating results from the estimates of securities analysts or other analyst comments;
•
additions or departures of key personnel;
•
health care reform legislation, including measures directed at controlling the pricing of pharmaceutical products, and third-party coverage and
reimbursement policies;
•
developments concerning current or future strategic collaborations; and
•
discussion of us or our stock price by the financial and scientific press and in online investor communities.

The
realization of any of the risks described in these "Risk Factors" could have a dramatic and material adverse impact on the market price of our common stock. In addition, class action litigation has often been instituted against companies
whose securities have experienced periods of volatility in market price. Any such litigation brought against us could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management's attention and resources, which could hurt our business,
operating results and financial condition.
Future sales of our common stock may cause our stock price
to decline.
Persons who were our stockholders prior to the sale of shares in our initial public
offering continue to hold a substantial number of shares of our common stock that they may now be able to sell in the public market. Significant portions of these shares are held by a small number of stockholders. Sales by our current stockholders
of a substantial number of shares, or the expectation that such sales may occur, could significantly reduce the market price of our common stock. Moreover, the holders of a substantial number of shares of common stock may have rights, subject to
certain conditions, to require us to file registration statements to permit the resale of their shares in the public market or to include their shares in registration statements that we may file for ourselves or other stockholders.
For example, in May 2009, we completed the registration of 18,059,691 shares of our common stock in connection with a
financing transaction completed in February 2009. As a result, all of the shares currently outstanding may generally be freely sold in the public market, subject to volume and other limitations applicable to our affiliates. Additionally, in
September 2009, we filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, a registration statement for $100.0 million of debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, debt warrants and equity warrants, which was subsequently declared
effective by the SEC. We have also registered all common stock that we may issue under our employee benefits plans. As a result, these shares can be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, subject to restrictions under the securities laws.
In addition, certain of our officers have established, and other of our directors and executive officers may
in the future establish, programmed selling plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the purpose of effecting sales of our common stock. If any of these events cause a large number of our shares to be sold
in the public market, the sales could reduce the trading price of our common stock and impede our ability to raise future capital.
Our executive officers and directors and their affiliates may exercise control over stockholder voting matters in a manner that may not be in the best interests of all of our stockholders.
As of September 30, 2010, our executive officers and directors and their affiliates together
controlled approximately 50.4% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders will collectively be able to significantly influence all matters requiring approval of our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval
of significant corporate transactions. The concentration of ownership may delay, prevent or deter a change in control of our company even when such a change may be in the best interests of all stockholders, could deprive our stockholders of an
opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company or our assets, and might affect the prevailing market price of our common stock.
Anti-takeover provisions under our charter documents and Delaware law could delay or prevent a change of control
which could limit the market price of our common stock and may prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that could delay
or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our board of directors that our stockholders might consider favorable. Some of these provisions include:
•
a board of directors divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms, such that not all members of the board will be elected at one
time;
•
a prohibition on stockholder action through written consent;
•
a requirement that special meetings of stockholders be called only by the chairman of the board of directors, the president or by a majority of the
total number of directors;
•
advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations;

Table of Contents
•
a requirement of approval of not less than 66 2 /3% of all outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote to amend any bylaws by
stockholder action, or to amend specific provisions of our certificate of incorporation; and
•
the authority of the board of directors to issue preferred stock on terms determined by the board of directors without stockholder approval.
In addition, we are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General
Corporate Law, which may prohibit certain business combinations with stockholders owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. These and other provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws
and Delaware law could make it more difficult for stockholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of our board of directors or initiate actions that are opposed by the then-current board of directors, including to delay or impede a merger,
tender offer or proxy contest involving our company. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction or changes in our board of directors could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
We have never paid dividends on our capital stock, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the
foreseeable future.
We have paid no cash dividends on any of our classes of capital stock to date and
we currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Furthermore, our current loan and security
agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, Oxford Finance Corporation and GE Business Financial Services Inc., restricts our ability to pay dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be your sole source of gain for the
foreseeable future.
We may become involved in securities class action litigation that could divert
management's attention and harm our business.
The stock markets have from time to time
experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices for the common stock of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. These broad market fluctuations may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against a company following a decline in the market price of its securities. This risk is especially relevant for us because biotechnology and biopharmaceutical companies have
experienced significant stock price volatility in recent years. We may become involved in this type of litigation in the future. Litigation often is expensive and diverts management's attention and resources, which could adversely affect our
business.
