These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules, listed in the accompanying index on page 1, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ COOPERS & LYBRAND L.L.P. ------------------------------------ Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. 4 FISONS CORPORATION THRIFT PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. PLAN DESCRIPTION The following description of the Fisons Corporation Thrift Plan ("the Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provision. Background - ---------- In October 1995, Fisons Corporation ("Fisons") was purchased by Rhone-Poulenc Rorer, Inc. (the "Company" or "RPR"). Effective October 25, 1996, the Plan was frozen with respect to future contributions and new loans. Former Fisons employees who met certain eligibility requirements were then given the opportunity to enter the Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Inc. Employee Savings Plan. In November 1996, Plan assets were transferred from Fidelity Management Trust Company (the "Former Trustee" or "Fidelity") to American Express Trust Company (the "Trustee"), who were also the recordkeepers of the Plan. General - ------- The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all former employees of Fisons, who have attained the age of 20 1/2 (completed 3 months of service) and elected to make a contribution. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and is currently administered by the RPR Employee Savings Plan Committee as appointed by the Company's Board of Directors. Contributions - ------------- Prior to October 25, 1996, participants could have contributed from 2 percent to 15 percent of pretax annual compensation, not to exceed $3,000 per participant in any plan year, as defined in the Plan. Participants could have also contributed amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or contribution plans. The total amount of this contribution, however, was subject to (1) the maximum amount allowed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in any plan year and (2) the IRS mandated discrimination tests. Prior to the cessation of contributions on October 25, 1996, Fisons or RPR matched 100% of a participant's basic contributions, not in excess of two percent (2%) of a participant's compensation. Vesting - ------- Participants are immediately vested in their employee, voluntary, rollover and employer contributions, as well as earnings on these contributions. Investment Options - ------------------ Prior to November 1996, a participant may have directed employee and employer contributions with a minimum of 10 percent and thereafter in 5 percent increments into any of the following six investment options: Mass Mutual Fixed Income Fund; Fidelity Puritan Fund; Fidelity Magellan Fund; Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio; Fidelity OTC Stock Portfolio; and the Fidelity International Growth & Income Fund. During 1996, The Mass Mutual Fixed Income Fund option was replaced by the Fidelity Managed Income Fund. In November 1996, with the transfer of Plan assets from Fidelity to American Express Trust Company, new investment options were offered to participants. Current investment options are as follows: IDS Discovery Fund, Inc.; IDS Federal Income Fund, Inc.; IDS International Fund, Inc.; IDS Managed Allocation Fund; IDS Mutual; IDS 5 New Dimensions Fund, Inc.; IDS Growth Fund, Inc.; IDS Selective Fund, Inc.; (collectively, the "IDS funds"); AIM Constellation Fund; Templeton Foreign Fund; American Express Trust Equity Index Fund I; Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Inc. Interest Accumulation Account; and Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Inc. Common Stock Account. The IDS funds are managed by American Express Financial Corporation. Participants may choose any combination of available investment vehicles in increments of one percent. On August 22, 1997 Rhone-Poulenc S.A. (RP) commenced a cash tender offer to acquire, at a purchase price of $97 per share, the remaining shares of common stock of Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Inc. (RPR) that it did not then own, including shares in the Plan. The tender was declared complete on October 1, 1997. An amount of $211,515 being the cash received by the Trustee of the tender of such shares by plan participants who exercised the tender by the due date of September 25, 1997, was transferred into the Interest Accumulation Fund as of October 9, 1997. The cash of $21,952 received by the Trustee for shares of RPR stock that were not tendered during the tender period were frozen until the cancellation of shares and was transferred into the Interest Accumulation Fund as of December 3, 1997. Participants may change their investment options on a daily basis. Allocation of Investment Performance - ------------------------------------ Investment performance (i.e., interest and dividends) within the Funds is allocated to participant accounts based on a participant's relative unit value interest in an individual fund at the earnings date. Participants' Promissory Notes - ------------------------------ Prior to October 25, 1996, participants could borrow from their fund accounts an amount not to exceed 50% of their vested account with a minimum of $1,000 and a maximum of $50,000. The participant could only be granted one loan per year and only one loan could be outstanding at anytime. New loans were not allowed after October 25, 1996. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund from (to) the Participants' Promissory Notes account. Loan terms ranged from 1 to 5 years or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the vested balance in the participant's account and bear interest at the prime rate plus 1.5% determined at the time the loan was granted. Interest rates ranged from 7.48% to 13.33% in 1996. No new loans were taken during 1997. Principal and interest is paid in substantially equal installments, not less frequently than quarterly, by payroll deduction. Payment of Benefits - ------------------- On termination of service, a participant who has an account balance of greater than $3,500 may elect to receive either a lump sum amount equal to the value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account or elect to defer payment until a later date. A participant who has an account balance under $3,500 will receive a lump sum amount equal to the value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account. Plan Expenses - ------------- Brokerage commissions in connection with the Plan's purchase or sale of securities are added to the cost of the securities or deducted from the proceeds thereof, as the case may be. All other costs and expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan (i.e., trustee and recordkeeper fees) are currently paid by the Company. Termination of the Plan - ----------------------- The Company's Board of Directors may amend or suspend the Plan from time to time and may terminate the Plan at any time (although there is no present intent to do so) provided, however, that no such action may cause the 6 participants' employee and Company contribution accounts to be used for purposes other than the exclusive benefit of the participants and their beneficiaries. If the Plan is terminated with respect to all participants or a group of participants, all such participants' accounts shall become fully vested and all accounts of participants shall be distributed as soon as administratively possible. NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting - ------------------- The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual basis of accounting. Investment Valuation and Income Recognition - ------------------------------------------- The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices, which represent the net asset value of the shares held by the Plan. The Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Inc. Interest Accumulation Account is stated at contract value (cost plus interest income earned on an accrual basis) which approximates fair value. The Rhone- Poulenc Rorer Inc. Common Stock Account is stated at the fair market value of the Company's common stock. Purchases and sales are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The statement of changes in net assets available for benefits presents the net appreciation in the fair value of Plan investments which consists of realized gains (losses) and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those investments. Risks and Uncertainties - ----------------------- The Plan provides for various investment options representing varied combinations of stocks, bonds, fixed income securities, mutual funds and other investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits. Related Party Transactions - -------------------------- Certain Plan investments were made in shares of mutual funds managed at the time by an affiliate of American Express Trust Company or Fidelity, the current or then-current trustees of the Plan. Therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest. Use of Estimates - ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 7 NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ASPECTS OF INVESTMENT OPTIONS Current investment options: IDS Discovery Fund, Inc.

(1) 1996 inter-fund transfers include new loans issued of $151,415 and repayments of $327,177. 16 NOTE 8. VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE RESOLUTION In August 1997, RPR filed with the IRS a Voluntary Compliance Resolution Program (VCR) for the approval by the IRS of a correction on behalf of the Plan of certain operational defects associated with the Plan. These operational defects occurred during the distribution of funds to former Plan participants under the previous Plan administrator. The IRS approved the correction in January 1998 and stated that if the approved corrections were made, there would be no adverse effect on the qualified status of the Plan. RPR is currently in the process of utilizing the IRS Locator Program to locate the former plan participants. RPR believes that compliance with the approved corrective program can be completed by the end of October 1998. 17 SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULES FISONS CORPORATION THRIFT PLAN LINE 27A - SCHEDULE OF ASSETS HELD FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES
