Roche to nominate slate of independent directors for election at Illumina, Inc.’s 2012 annual meeting
 
Election of director nominees and approval of other proposals would result in Roche-nominated directors comprising majority of the Board
 
 
Roche (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY) announced today that it has provided notice to Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ: ILMN) that it will nominate a slate of highly qualified, independent candidates for election to Illumina’s Board of Directors and propose certain other matters for the consideration of Illumina’s shareholders at Illumina’s 2012 annual meeting, which, if adopted, would result in Roche-nominated directors comprising a majority of the Illumina board. Roche also named five alternate nominees for election to Illumina’s board.

In addition to the nomination of independent directors to fill the seats of the four directors whose terms of office are scheduled to expire at Illumina’s 2012 annual meeting, Roche will also propose increasing the size of Illumina’s board from nine directors to eleven directors with the resulting vacancies on the board to be filled by candidates nominated by Roche. This approach allows shareholders to elect Roche-nominated directors comprising a majority of Illumina’s board.

Severin Schwan, CEO of Roche Group, said, “Our proposed slate of directors is composed of well-qualified and distinguished executives who we believe, if elected, will act in the best interest of Illumina’s shareholders. We believe that the proposed directors will carefully review the value represented by Roche’s offer and ensure that Illumina acts in the best interests of its shareholders.”

Schwan continued, “Although we are taking this step, our strong preference remains to engage in a constructive dialogue with Illumina to jointly develop an optimal strategy for maximizing value for Illumina shareholders and our combined business. Despite our repeated attempts, Illumina has been unwilling to participate in substantive discussions regarding a negotiated transaction.”

On January 27, 2012, Roche commenced a tender offer to acquire all of Illumina’s common stock for $44.50 per share in cash, or an aggregate of approximately $5.7 billion on a fully diluted basis. This offer represents a premium of 64% over Illumina’s closing stock price on December 21, 2011 – the day before market rumors about a potential transaction between Roche and Illumina drove Illumina’s stock price significantly higher – and a 61% premium over the one-month historical average and a 43% premium over the three-month historical average of Illumina’s share price, both as of December 21.
