EXPLANATORY NOTE
 

 
Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to deregister certain shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), that were originally registered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 16, 2002, File No. 333-92424 (the “Registration Statement”).
 
In connection with the merger of AMS Acquisition Inc. (“AMS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with Immunex Corporation (the “Merger”), the Company registered 40,099,696 shares of its Common Stock (“Shares”) for issuance under several plans that the Company assumed or continued in connection with the Merger and listed on the Registration Statement (the “Plans”). Conversion ratios established in connection with the Merger were used to estimate the numbers of Shares that, as of the closing of the Merger, were subject to outstanding awards or rights that were assumed or were available for future issuance by the Company under the Plans. The Company subsequently determined that such estimates, as reflected in the Registration Statement, overstated the number of Shares registered as issuable under the Amgen Inc. Amended and Restated 1993 Equity Incentive Plan (the “1993 Plan”) and the Amgen Inc. Amended and Restated 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the “1999 Plan”) by 17,366 shares and 550 shares, respectively. Accordingly, this Post-Effective Amendment is being filed to deregister 17,916 Shares previously registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, consisting of 17,366 Shares registered for issuance under the 1993 Plan and 550 Shares registered for issuance under the 1999 Plan. This Post-Effective Amendment shall not affect the remaining Shares registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, and the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as to the 40,081,780 Shares issuable under the Plans shall continue unaffected by this Post-Effective Amendment.
 
This Post-Effective Amendment also is being filed to attach as exhibits copies of the 1993 Plan, the 1999 Plan and the Amgen Inc. Amended and Restated 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan that include updated provisions setting forth the numbers of Shares available for issuance under such plans. Such numbers, as reflected in the forms of such plans originally attached as exhibits to the Registration Statement, reflected estimates prepared for purposes of filing the Registration Statement.
 
The Registration Statement remains in effect in all other respects.

EX-10.1 3 dex101.txt AMENDED & RESTATED 1993 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN EXHIBIT 10.1 AMGEN INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 1993 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN Amgen Inc. has adopted this Amended and Restated 1993 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), effective as of July 15, 2002 (the "Restatement Date"). This Plan amends and restates in its entirety the Immunex Corporation 1993 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the "Original Plan"). ARTICLE I. PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO OPTIONS GRANTED PRIOR TO RESTATEMENT DATE The following provisions of this Article I shall govern awards granted under the Plan prior to the Restatement Date: SECTION 1. PURPOSE. ------- The purpose of Article I of the Plan is to provide a means whereby selected employees, directors and officers of Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), or of any parent or subsidiary (as defined in Article I, subsection 5.8 and referred to hereinafter as "related corporations") thereof, may be granted incentive stock options and/or nonqualified stock options to purchase the Common Stock (as defined in Article I, Section 3) of the Company, in order to attract and retain the services or advice of such employees, directors and officers and to provide added incentive to such persons by encouraging stock ownership in the Company. SECTION 2. ADMINISTRATION. -------------- This Plan shall be administered by a committee (the "Committee" or "Plan Administrator") appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") consisting of two or more members of the Board. If and so long as the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time (the "Exchange Act"), the Board shall consider in selecting the Plan Administrator and the membership of any committee acting as Plan Administrator of the Plan with respect to any persons subject or likely to become subject to Section 16 under the Exchange Act the provisions regarding (a) "outside directors" as contemplated by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (b) "nonemployee directors" as contemplated by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. The Board may delegate the responsibility for administering the Plan with respect to designated classes of eligible Participants to different committees, subject to such limitations as the Board deems appropriate. Committee members shall serve for such term as the Board may determine, subject to removal by the Board at any time. To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Board may authorize one or more senior executive officers of the Company to grant options to specified eligible persons, within the limits specifically prescribed by the Board. 2.1 Procedures. ---------- The Board shall designate one of the members of the Plan Administrator as chairman. The Plan Administrator may hold meetings at such times and places as it shall determine. The acts of a majority of the members of the Plan Administrator present at meetings at which a quorum exists, or acts reduced to or approved in writing by all Plan Administrator members, shall be valid acts of the Plan Administrator. 2.2 Responsibilities. ---------------- Except for the terms and conditions explicitly set forth in this Plan, the Plan Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion, to determine all matters relating to the options to be granted under this Plan, including selection of the individuals to be granted options, the number of shares to be subject to each option, the exercise price, and all other terms and conditions of the options. Grants under this Plan need not be identical in any respect, even when made simultaneously. The interpretation and construction by the Plan Administrator of any terms or provisions of this Plan or any option issued hereunder, or of any rule or regulation promulgated in connection herewith, shall be conclusive and binding on all interested parties, so long as such interpretation and construction with respect to incentive stock options correspond to the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, the regulations thereunder and any amendments thereto. 2 2.3 Section 16(b) Compliance and Bifurcation of Plan. ------------------------------------------------ Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Board, in its absolute discretion, may bifurcate this Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the use of any provision of this Plan to participants who are officers and directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without so restricting, limiting or conditioning this Plan with respect to other participants. SECTION 3. STOCK SUBJECT TO THIS PLAN. -------------------------- The stock subject to this Plan shall be the Company's Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), presently authorized but unissued. SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY. ----------- An incentive stock option may be granted only to an individual who, at the time the option is granted, is an employee of the Company or any related corporation. A nonqualified stock option may be granted to any employee, director or officer of the Company or any related corporation, whether an individual or an entity. Any party to whom an option is granted under Article I of this Plan shall be referred to hereinafter as an "Optionee." SECTION 5. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. ------------------------------- Options granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by written agreements which shall contain such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Plan Administrator shall deem advisable and which are not inconsistent with this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, options shall include or incorporate by reference the following terms and conditions: 5.1 Number of Shares and Price. -------------------------- The maximum number of shares that may be purchased pursuant to the exercise of each option and the price per share at which such option is exercisable (the "exercise price") shall be as established by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that the Plan Administrator shall act in good faith to establish the exercise price which shall be not less than the fair market value per share of the Common Stock at the time the option is granted with respect to incentive stock options and not less than the par value per share of the Common Stock at the time the option is 3 granted with respect to nonqualified stock options and also provided that, with respect to incentive stock options granted to greater than 10% stockholders, the exercise price shall be as required by Article I, subsection 6.1. 5.2 Term and Maturity. ----------------- Subject to the restrictions contained in Article I, Section 6 with respect to granting incentive stock options to greater than 10% stockholders, the term of each incentive stock option shall be as established by the Plan Administrator and, if not so established, shall be 10 years from the date it is granted but in no event shall it exceed 10 years. The term of each nonqualified stock option shall be as established by the Plan Administrator and, if not so established, shall be 10 years. To ensure that the Company or related corporation will achieve the purpose and receive the benefits contemplated in this Plan, any option granted to any Optionee hereunder shall, unless the condition of this sentence is waived or modified in the agreement evidencing the option or by resolution adopted at any time by the Plan Administrator, be exercisable according to the following schedule: Period of Optionee's Continuous Relationship Portion of Total Option With the Company or Related Corporation Which Is Exercisable From the Date the Option Is Granted -------------------- ------------------------- after one year 20% after two years 40% after three years 60% after four years 80% after five years 100% Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any option granted under Article I of the Plan, the option shall become 100% vested and exercisable on the date of termination of an Optionee's employment or service relationship with the Company or a related corporation on account of the Optionee's death, provided that the Optionee has been in the continuous employment of or service to the Company or a related corporation for at least two years at the date of such Optionee's death. 4 5.3 Exercise. -------- Subject to the vesting schedule described in Article I, subsection 5.2, each option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time; provided, however, that no fewer than 20% of the shares purchasable under the option (or the remaining shares then purchasable under the option, if less than 20%) may be purchased upon any exercise of option rights hereunder and that only whole shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any option and that the exercise price shall not be less than the par value per share of the Common Stock at the time the option is exercised. During an Optionee's lifetime, any options granted under Article I of this Plan are personal to him or her and are exercisable solely by such Optionee. Options shall be exercised by delivery to the Company of notice of the number of shares with respect to which the option is exercised, together with payment of the exercise price. 5.4 Payment of Exercise Price. ------------------------- Payment of the option exercise price shall be made in full at the time the notice of exercise of the option is delivered to the Company and shall be in cash, bank certified or cashier's check or personal check (unless at the time of exercise the Plan Administrator in a particular case determines not to accept a personal check) for the Common Stock being purchased. The Plan Administrator can determine at any time before exercise that additional forms of payment will be permitted. To the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations (including, but not limited to, federal tax and securities laws and regulations and state corporate law), and unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise, an option also may be exercised, either singly or in combination with one or more of the alternative forms of payment authorized by this Article I, Section 5.4 by: (a) tendering (either actually or by attestation) shares of stock of the Company held by an Optionee having a fair market value equal to the exercise price, such fair market value to be determined in good faith by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that payment in stock held by an Optionee shall not be made unless the stock shall have been owned by the Optionee for a period of at least six months (or any shorter period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for financial accounting purposes); or 5 (b) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the exercise price and any federal, state or local withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise. In addition, the exercise price for shares purchased under an option may be paid, either singly or in combination with one or more of the alternative forms of payment authorized by this Article I, Section 5.4, by (y) delivery of a full-recourse promissory note executed by the Optionee; provided that (i) such note delivered in connection with an incentive stock option shall, and such note delivered in connection with a nonqualified stock option may, in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator, bear interest at a rate specified by the Plan Administrator but in no case less than the rate required to avoid imputation of interest (taking into account any exceptions to the imputed interest rules) for federal income tax purposes, (ii) the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion shall specify the term and other provisions of such note at the time an incentive stock option is granted or at any time prior to exercise of a nonqualified stock option, (iii) the Plan Administrator may require that the Optionee pledge to the Company for the purpose of securing the payment of such note the shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Optionee upon exercise of the option and may require that the certificate representing such shares be held in escrow in order to perfect the Company's security interest, and (iv) the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion may at any time restrict or rescind this right upon notification to the Optionee; or (z) such other consideration as the Plan Administrator may permit. 5.5 Withholding Tax Requirement. --------------------------- The Company or any related corporation shall have the right to retain and withhold from any payment of cash or Common Stock under this Plan the amount of taxes required by any government to be withheld or otherwise deducted and paid with respect to such payment. At its discretion, the Company may require an Optionee receiving shares of Common Stock to reimburse the Company for any such taxes required to be withheld by the Company and withhold any distribution in whole or in part until the Company is so reimbursed. In lieu thereof, the Company shall have the right to withhold from any other cash amounts due or to become due from the Company to the Optionee an amount equal to such taxes. The Company may also retain and withhold or the Optionee may elect, subject to approval by the Company at 6 its sole discretion, to have the Company retain and withhold a number of shares having a market value not less than the amount of such taxes required to be withheld by the Company to reimburse the Company for any such taxes and cancel (in whole or in part) any such shares so withheld. 5.6 Holding Periods. --------------- 5.6.1 Securities Exchange Act Section 16. If an individual subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act sells shares of Common Stock obtained upon the exercise of a stock option within six months after the date the option was granted, such sale may result in short-swing profit recovery under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. 5.6.2 Taxation of Stock Options. The Plan Administrator may require an Optionee to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired by the exercise of an incentive stock option prior to the expiration of two years after the date of grant of the option and one year from the date of exercise. 5.7 Nontransferability of Options. ----------------------------- Options granted under Article I of this Plan and the rights and privileges conferred hereby may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner (whether by operation of law or otherwise), other than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any option under Article I of this Plan or of any right or privilege conferred hereby, contrary to the Code or to the provisions of this Plan, or the sale or levy or any attachment or similar process upon the rights and privileges conferred hereby shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company permits, an Optionee may, during the Optionee's lifetime, designate a person who may exercise the option after the Optionee's death by giving written notice of such designation to the Plan Administrator. Such designation may be changed from time to time by the Optionee by giving 7 written notice to the Plan Administrator revoking any earlier designation and making a new designation. 5.8 Termination of Relationship. --------------------------- If the Optionee's relationship with the Company or any related corporation ceases for any reason other than termination for cause, death or total disability, and unless by its terms the option sooner terminates or expires, then the portion of the option which is not exercisable at the time of such cessation shall terminate immediately upon such cessation, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise, and the Optionee may exercise, for a three-month period, that portion of the option which is exercisable at the time of such cessation, and shall terminate at the end of such period following such cessation as to all shares for which it has not theretofore been exercised, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. The Plan Administrator shall have sole discretion in a particular circumstance to extend the exercise period following such cessation to any date up to the termination or expiration of the option. If, however, in the case of an incentive stock option, the Optionee does not exercise the Optionee's option within three months after cessation of employment, the option will no longer qualify as an incentive stock option under the Code. If an Optionee is terminated for cause, any option granted hereunder shall automatically terminate as of the first discovery by the Company of any reason for termination for cause, and such Optionee shall thereupon have no right to purchase any shares pursuant to such option. "Termination for cause" shall mean dismissal for dishonesty, conviction or confession of a crime punishable by law (except minor violations), fraud, misconduct or disclosure of confidential information. If an Optionee's relationship with the Company or any related corporation is suspended pending an investigation of whether or not the Optionee shall be terminated for cause, all the Optionee's rights under any option granted hereunder likewise shall be suspended during the period of investigation. If an Optionee's relationship with the Company or any related corporation ceases because of a total disability, the portion of the Optionee's option that is exercisable at the time of such cessation shall not terminate or, in the case of an incentive stock option, cease to be treated as an incentive stock option until the end of the 12-month period following such 8 cessation (unless by its terms it sooner terminates and expires). As used in this Plan, the term "total disability" refers to a mental or physical impairment of the Optionee which is expected to result in death or which has lasted or is expected to last for a continuous period of 12 months or more and which causes the Optionee to be unable, in the opinion of the Company and two independent physicians, to perform his or her duties for the Company and to be engaged in any substantial gainful activity. Total disability shall be deemed to have occurred on the first day after the Company and the two independent physicians have furnished their opinion of total disability to the Plan Administrator. Options granted under Article I of this Plan shall not be affected by any change of relationship with the Company so long as the Optionee continues to be an employee, director, officer, agent, consultant, advisor or independent contractor of the Company or of a related corporation. The Plan Administrator, in its absolute discretion, may determine all questions of whether particular leaves of absence constitute a termination of services; provided, however, that with respect to incentive stock options, such determination shall be subject to any requirements contained in the Code. The foregoing notwithstanding, with respect to incentive stock options, employment shall not be deemed to continue beyond the first 90 days of such leave, unless the Optionee's reemployment rights are guaranteed by statute or by contract. As used herein, the term "related corporation," when referring to a subsidiary corporation, shall mean any corporation (other than the Company) in, at the time of the granting of the option, an unbroken chain of corporations ending with the Company, if stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of each of the corporations other than the Company is owned by one of the other corporations in such chain. When referring to a parent corporation, the term "related corporation" shall mean any corporation in an unbroken chain of corporations ending with the Company if, at the time of the granting of the option, each of the corporations other than the Company owns stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. 5.9 Death of Optionee. ----------------- If an Optionee dies while he or she has a relationship with the Company or any related corporation or within the three-month period (or 12-month period in the case of totally disabled Optionees) following cessation of such relationship, any option held by such Optionee to the 9 extent that the Optionee would have been entitled to exercise such option, may be exercised within one year after his or her death by the personal representative of his or her estate or by the person or persons to whom the Optionee's rights under the option shall pass by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution. 5.10 No Status As Stockholder. ------------------------ Neither the Optionee nor any party to which the Optionee's rights and privileges under the option may pass shall be, or have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the shares issuable upon the exercise of any option granted under this Plan unless and until such option has been exercised. 5.11 Continuation of Relationship. ---------------------------- Nothing in this Plan or in any option granted pursuant to this Plan shall confer upon any Optionee any right to continue in the employ or other relationship of the Company or of a related corporation, or to interfere in any way with the right of the Company or of any such related corporation to terminate his or her employment or other relationship with the Company at any time. 5.12 Modification and Amendment of Option. ------------------------------------ Subject to the requirements of Section 422 of the Code with respect to incentive stock options and to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of this Plan, the Plan Administrator may modify or amend outstanding options granted under Article I of this Plan. The modification or amendment of an outstanding option shall not, without the consent of the Optionee, impair or diminish any of his or her rights or any of the obligations of the Company under such option. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, no outstanding option shall be terminated without the consent of the Optionee. Unless the Optionee agrees otherwise, any changes or adjustments made to outstanding incentive stock options granted under this Plan shall be made in such a manner so as not to constitute a "modification" as defined in Section 424(h) of the Code and so as not to cause any incentive stock option issued hereunder to fail to continue to qualify as an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422(b) of the Code. 10 5.13 Limitation on Value for Incentive Stock Options. As to all incentive stock options granted under the terms of this Plan, to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of the stock (determined at the time the incentive stock option is granted) with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under this Plan and all other incentive stock option plans of the Company, a related corporation or a predecessor corporation) exceeds $100,000, such options shall be treated as nonqualified stock options. The previous sentence shall not apply if the Internal Revenue Service issues a statutory change, public rule, issues a private ruling to the Company, any Optionee or any legatee, personal representative or distributee of an Optionee or issues regulations changing or eliminating such annual limit. SECTION 6. GREATER THAN 10% STOCKHOLDERS. 6.1 Exercise Price and Term of Incentive Stock Options. If incentive stock options are granted under this Plan to employees who own more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any related corporation, the term of such incentive stock options shall not exceed five years and the exercise price shall be not less than 110% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time the incentive stock option is granted. This provision shall control notwithstanding any contrary terms contained in an option agreement or any other document. 6.2 Attribution Rule. For purposes of Article I, subsection 6.1, in determining stock ownership, an employee shall be deemed to own the stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for his or her brothers, sisters, spouse, ancestors and lineal descendants. Stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for a corporation, partnership, estate or trust shall be deemed to be owned proportionately by or for its stockholders, partners or beneficiaries. If an employee or a person related to the employee owns an unexercised option or warrant to purchase stock of the Company, the stock subject to that portion of the option or warrant which is unexercised shall not be counted in determining stock ownership. For purposes of this Article I, Section 6, stock owned by an employee shall include all stock actually issued and outstanding immediately before the grant of the incentive stock option to the employee. 11 SECTION 7. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION. The aggregate number and class of shares for which options may be granted under this Plan, the number and class of shares covered by each outstanding option and the exercise price per share thereof (but not the total price), shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a split-up or consolidation of shares or any like capital adjustment, or the payment of any stock dividend. 7.1 Effect of Liquidation or Reorganization. 7.1.1 Cash, Stock or Other Property for Stock. Except as provided in Article I, subsection 7.1.2, upon a merger (other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of Common Stock in the surviving corporation immediately after the merger), consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization (other than a mere reincorporation or the creation of a holding company) or liquidation of the Company, as a result of which the stockholders of the Company receive cash, stock or other property in exchange for or in connection with their shares of Common Stock, any option granted hereunder shall terminate, but the Optionee shall have the right immediately prior to any such merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization to exercise such Optionee's option in whole or in part whether or not the vesting requirements set forth in the option agreement have been satisfied. 7.1.2 Conversion of Options on Stock for Stock Exchange. If the stockholders of the Company receive capital stock of another corporation ("Exchange Stock") in exchange for their shares of Common Stock in any transaction involving a merger (other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of Common Stock in the surviving corporation immediately after the merger), consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization (other than a mere reincorporation or the creation of a holding company), the Company and the corporation issuing the Exchange Stock, in their sole discretion, may determine that all options granted hereunder shall be converted into options to 12 purchase shares of Exchange Stock instead of terminating in accordance with the provisions of Article I, subsection 7.1.1. The amount and price of converted options shall be determined by adjusting the amount and price of the options granted hereunder in the same proportion as used for determining the number of shares of Exchange Stock the holders of the Common Stock receive in such merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization. Unless accelerated by the Board, the vesting schedule set forth in the option agreement shall continue to apply to the options granted for the Exchange Stock. The aggregate number and kind of shares for which options may be granted under this Plan shall be proportionately adjusted in the event of such merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization. 7.2 Fractional Shares. In the event of any adjustment in the number of shares covered by any option, any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be disregarded and each such option shall cover only the number of full shares resulting from such adjustment. 7.3 Determination of Board to Be Final. All Article I, Section 7 adjustments shall be made by the Plan Administrator, and its determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final, binding and conclusive. Unless an Optionee agrees otherwise, any change or adjustment to an incentive stock option shall be made in such a manner so as not to constitute a "modification" as defined in Section 424(h) of the Code and so as not to cause his or her incentive stock option issued hereunder to fail to continue to qualify as an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422(b) of the Code. SECTION 8. SECURITIES REGULATION. Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option granted under this Plan unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, any applicable state securities laws, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the 13 Company with respect to such compliance, including the availability, if applicable of an exemption from registration for the issuance and sale of any shares hereunder. SECTION 9. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. 9.1 Board Action. The Board may at any time suspend, amend or terminate this Plan, provided that except as set forth in Article I, Section 7, and to the extent required for compliance with Section 422 of the Code or Section 162(m) of the Code or by any applicable law or requirement, the Company's stockholders must approve within 12 months of the adoption by the Board any amendment which will: (a) increase the total number of shares that may be issued under this Plan; (b) modify the class of participants eligible for participation in this Plan; or (c) otherwise require stockholder approval under any applicable law or regulation. Any amendment made to this Plan since its original adoption which would constitute a "modification" to incentive stock options outstanding on the date of such amendment, shall not be applicable to such outstanding incentive stock options, but shall have prospective effect only, unless the Optionee agrees otherwise. 9.2 Automatic Termination. Unless sooner terminated by the Board, this Plan shall terminate ten years from the earlier of (a) the date on which this Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors of Immunex Corporation ("Immunex") or (b) the date on which this Plan was approved by the stockholders of Immunex. No option may be granted after such termination or during any suspension of this Plan. The amendment or termination of this Plan shall not, without the consent of the Optionee, impair or diminish any rights or obligations under any option theretofore granted under this Plan. 14 SECTION 10. EFFECTIVENESS OF THIS PLAN. The Original Plan became effective upon adoption by the Board of Directors of Immunex, and was approved by a majority of stock represented by stockholders voting either in person or by proxy at a duly held stockholders' meeting any time within 12 months before or after the adoption of the Original Plan. Section 11. ADDENDUM TO ARTICLE I OF THE PLAN. Notwithstanding anything in Article I of the Plan to the contrary, effective as of the Effective Time (as defined in the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between the Company, AMS Acquisition Inc. and Immunex dated as of December 16, 2001, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 15, 2002 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement")), the following provisions shall constitute an addendum (the "Addendum") to Article I of the Plan: 11.1. At the Effective Time, each option granted pursuant Article I of the Plan shall be treated in accordance with the applicable terms of the Merger Agreement. 11.2. In the event that an optionee's employment with Immunex or the Company is terminated by the optionee for Good Reason or by Immunex or the Company without Cause during the fifteen (15) months following the Effective Time, each option held by such optionee for Common Stock that was granted pursuant to the Merger Agreement with respect to (a) a Cancelled Company Option (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or (b) an option for common stock of Immunex that was granted after December 16, 2001, shall immediately vest in full and shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the optionee's termination of employment or (y) the end of the term of such option. 11.3. For purposes of this Addendum only, "Good Reason" shall mean the occurrence on or after the Effective Time and without the optionee's consent of, (a) a reduction in the optionee's annual base salary or wages, other than as part of a general reduction applicable to substantially all employees of Immunex or the Company employed in the United States or (ii) the relocation of the optionee's principal place of employment to a location more than fifty (50) miles from the optionee's principal place of employment prior to the Effective Time. 15 11.4. For purposes of this Addendum only, "Cause" shall mean (a) the willful and continued failure by the optionee to substantially perform the optionee's duties with Immunex or the Company (other than such failure resulting form the optionee's incapacity due to physical or mental illness) or (b) the willful engaging by the optionee in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to Immunex or the Company, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the optionee's part shall be deemed willful unless done, or omitted to be done, by the optionee not in good faith or without reasonable belief that the optionee's act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of Immunex or the Company. ARTICLE II. PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO OPTIONS GRANTED ON OR AFTER RESTATEMENT DATE The following provisions of this Article II shall govern awards granted under the Plan on or after the Restatement Date: SECTION 1. PURPOSE. (a) The purpose of Article II of the Plan is to provide a means by which employees or directors of and consultants to Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and its Affiliates, as defined in Article II, paragraph 1(b), directly, or indirectly through Trusts, may be given an opportunity to benefit from increases in value of the stock of the Company through the granting of (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonqualified stock options, (iii) stock bonuses, and (iv) rights to purchase restricted stock, all as defined below. (b) The word "Affiliate" as used in Article II of the Plan means any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). (c) The Company, by means of Article II of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of persons now employed by or serving as directors or consultants to the Company, to secure and retain the services of persons capable of filling such positions, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company. 16 (d) The Company intends that the rights issued under Article II of the Plan ("Stock Awards") shall, in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or any committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to Article II, paragraph 2(c), be either (i) stock options granted pursuant to Article II, Sections 5 or 6 hereof, including incentive stock options as that term is used in Section 422 of the Code ("Incentive Stock Options"), or options which do not qualify as Incentive Stock Options ("Nonqualified Stock Options") (together hereinafter referred to as "Options"), or (ii) stock bonuses or rights to purchase restricted stock granted pursuant to Article II, Section 7 hereof. (e) The word "Trust" as used in Article II of the Plan shall mean a trust created for the benefit of the employee, director or consultant, his or her spouse, or members of their immediate family. The word optionee shall mean the person to whom the option is granted or the employee, director or consultant for whose benefit the option is granted to a Trust, as the context shall require. SECTION 2. ADMINISTRATION. (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board unless and until the Board delegates administration to a committee, as provided in Article II, paragraph 2(c). (b) The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan: (1) To determine from time to time which of the persons eligible under the Plan shall be granted Stock Awards; when and how Stock Awards shall be granted; whether a Stock Award will be an Incentive Stock Option, a Nonqualified Stock Option, a stock bonus, a right to purchase restricted stock, or a combination of the foregoing; the provisions of each Stock Award granted (which need not be identical), including the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase or receive stock pursuant to a Stock Award; and the number of shares with respect to which Stock Awards shall be granted to each such person. (2) To construe and interpret the Plan and Stock Awards granted under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or in any 17 Stock Award, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective. (3) To amend the Plan as provided in Article II, Section 14. (4) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company. (c) The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a committee composed of not fewer than two (2) members of the Board (the "Committee"). One or more of these members may be non-employee directors and outside directors, if required and as defined by the provisions of Article II, paragraphs 2(e) and 2(f). If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board (except amendment of any program adopted pursuant to Article II, Section 6 or any Non-Discretionary Director Awards granted thereunder shall only be by action taken by the Board or a committee of one or more members of the Board to which such authority has been specifically delegated by the Board), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of Article II of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. Notwithstanding anything else in this Article II, paragraph 2(c) to the contrary, at any time the Board or the Committee may delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board the authority to grant or amend options to all employees, directors or consultants or any portion or class thereof. (d) Notwithstanding anything else in the Plan to the contrary, at any time the Board or the Committee may authorize by duly adopted resolution one or more Officers (as defined below) (each a "Delegated Officer") to take the actions described in Article II, paragraph 2(b)(1) of the Plan with respect to Options only, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of Article II of the Plan; provided, however, that a Delegated Officer shall not have the power to (1) grant any Options to himself, any non-employee director, consultant, Trust, other Delegated Officer or Officer, (2) determine the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase stock pursuant to the exercise of an Option (i.e., vesting), (3) determine the exercise price of an Option, or (4) grant any Option to a parent corporation of the Company, as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code. The resolution authorizing a Delegated Officer to act as such shall specify the total number of shares of Common Stock that a Delegated Officer may grant with respect to Options. The exercise price (including any 18 formula by which such price or prices may be determined) and the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase stock pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall, however, be set by the Board or the Committee and not by a Delegated Officer to the extent required by Delaware General Corporation Law Section 157 or any other applicable law. The term "Officer" shall include any natural person who is elected as a corporate officer of the Company by the Board. (e) The term "non-employee director" shall mean a member of the Board who (i) is not currently an officer of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) or an employee of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company; (ii) does not receive compensation from the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company for services rendered in any capacity other than as a member of the Board (including a consultant) in an amount required to be disclosed to the Company's stockholders under Rule 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Rule 404"); (iii) does not possess an interest in any other transaction required to be disclosed under Rule 404; or (iv) is not engaged in a business relationship required to be disclosed under Rule 404, as all of these provisions are interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. (f) The term "outside director," as used in Article II of this Plan, shall mean an administrator of the Plan, whether a member of the Board or of any Committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to Article II, paragraph 2(c), who is considered to be an "outside director" in accordance with the rules, regulations or interpretations of Section 162(m) of the Code. (g) Any requirement that an administrator of the Plan be a "non-employee director" or "outside director" shall not apply if the Board or the Committee expressly declares that such requirement shall not apply. SECTION 3. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. (a) Subject to the provisions of Article II, Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, the stock that may be issued pursuant to Stock Awards granted under the Plan 19 shall not exceed in the aggregate 18,512,588 shares of the Company's $.0001 par value common stock (the "Common Stock"). If any Stock Award granted under the Plan shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full, the Common Stock not purchased under such Stock Award shall again become available for the Plan. Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to any repurchase rights reserved by the Company pursuant to the Plan shall not be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan. (b) The Common Stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise. (c) An Incentive Stock Option may be granted to an eligible person under the Plan only if the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which incentive stock options (as defined by the Code) are exercisable for the first time by such optionee during any calendar year under all such plans of the Company and its Affiliates does not exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). If it is determined that an entire Option or any portion thereof does not qualify for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option by reason of exceeding such maximum, such Option or the applicable portion shall be considered a Nonqualified Stock Option. SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY. (a) Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees (including officers) of the Company or its Affiliates. A director of the Company shall not be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options unless such director is also an employee of the Company or any Affiliate. Stock Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to employees (including officers) or directors of or consultants to the Company or any Affiliate or to Trusts of any such employee, director or consultant. (b) A director shall in no event be eligible for the benefits of the Plan (other than Non-Discretionary Director Awards, as defined in Article II, Section 6) unless and until such director is expressly declared eligible to participate in the Plan by action of the Board or the Committee, and only if, at any time discretion is exercised by the Board or the Committee in the selection of a director as a person to whom Stock Awards may be granted, or in the determination of the number of shares which may be covered by Stock Awards granted to a director, the Plan complies with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as from 20 time to time in effect. The Board shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as from time to time in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this Article II, paragraph 4(b) shall not apply if the Board or Committee expressly declares that such restrictions shall not apply. (c) No person shall be eligible for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan if, at the time of grant, such person owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any of its Affiliates unless the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option is at least one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and the Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant. (d) Stock Awards shall be limited to a maximum of 1,298,911 shares of Common Stock per person per calendar year. SECTION 5. TERMS OF DISCRETIONARY STOCK OPTIONS. An option granted pursuant to this Article II, Section 5 (a "Discretionary Stock Option") shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The provisions of separate Options need not be identical, but each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions: (a) No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it was granted. (b) The exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option and each Nonqualified Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted. (c) The purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either: (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised; or (ii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, either at the time of grant or exercise of the Option (A) by delivery to the Company of shares of Common Stock 21 that have been held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings and valued at the fair market value on the date of exercise, (B) according to a deferred payment or other arrangement with the person to whom the Option is granted or to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to Article II, paragraph 5(d), or (C) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board or the Committee in their discretion; including but not limited to payment of the purchase price pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instruction to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be payable at least annually and shall be charged at not less than the minimum rate of interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the deferred payment arrangement. (d) An Option granted to a natural person shall be exercisable during the lifetime of such person only by such person, provided that such person during such person's lifetime may designate a Trust to be such person's beneficiary with respect to any Incentive Stock Options and with respect to any Nonqualified Stock Options, and such beneficiary shall, after the death of the person to whom the Option was granted, have all the rights that such person has while living, including the right to exercise the Option. In the absence of such designation, after the death of the person to whom the Option is granted, the Option shall be exercisable by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such Option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. (e) The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option may, but need not, be allotted in periodic installments (which may, but need not, be equal). From time to time during each of such installment periods, the Option may become exercisable ("vest") with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to that period, and may be exercised with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to such period and/or any prior period as to which the Option was not fully exercised. During the remainder of the term of the Option (if its term extends beyond the end of the installment periods), the Option may be exercised from time to time with respect to any shares then remaining subject to the Option. The provisions of this Article II, paragraph 5(e) are subject to any Option provisions governing the minimum number of shares 22 as to which an Option may be exercised. (f) The Company may require any optionee, or any person to whom an Option is transferred under Article II, paragraph 5(d), as a condition of exercising any such Option: (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to such person's knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative who has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, and that such person is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that such person is acquiring the Common Stock subject to the Option for such person's own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Common Stock. These requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if: (x) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise of the Option has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"); or (y) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities law. (g) An Option shall terminate three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate, unless: (i) such termination is due to the optionee's permanent and total disability, within the meaning of Section 422(c)(6) of the Code and with such permanent and total disability being certified by the Social Security Administration prior to such termination, in which case the Option may, but need not, provide that it may be exercised at any time within one (1) year following such termination of employment or relationship as a consultant or director; (ii) the optionee dies while in the employ of or while serving as a consultant or director to the Company or an Affiliate, or within not more than three (3) months after termination of such employment or relationship as a consultant or director, in which case the Option may, but need not, provide that it may be exercised at any time within eighteen (18) months following the death of the optionee by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such Option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; or (iii) the Option by its term specifies either (A) that it shall terminate sooner than three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate; or (B) that it may be exercised more than three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate. This Article II, 23 paragraph 5(g) shall not be construed to extend the term of any Option or to permit anyone to exercise the Option after expiration of its term, nor shall it be construed to increase the number of shares as to which any Option is exercisable from the amount exercisable on the date of termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director. (h) The Option may, but need not, include a provision whereby the optionee may elect at any time during the term of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or any Affiliate to exercise the Option as to any part or all of the shares subject to the Option prior to the stated vesting dates of the Option. Any shares so purchased from any unvested installment or Option may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Board or the Committee determines to be appropriate. (i) To the extent provided by the terms of an Option, each optionee may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise of such Option by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares of the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the optionee as a result of the exercise of the Option a number of shares having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding. SECTION 6. NON-DISCRETIONARY DIRECTOR AWARDS. The Board may from time to time adopt award programs under the Plan providing for the grant of formula or non-discretionary Stock Awards to directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or any Affiliate ("Non-Discretionary Director Awards"). The terms and conditions of any such program shall be established by the Board in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. SECTION 7. TERMS OF STOCK BONUSES AND PURCHASES OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be in such form and shall 24 contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate agreements need not be identical, but each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions as appropriate: (a) The purchase price under each stock purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board or Committee shall determine and designate in such agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee may determine that eligible participants in the Plan may be awarded stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit. (b) No rights under a stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be assignable by any participant under the Plan, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except where such assignment is required by law or expressly authorized by the terms of the applicable stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement. (c) The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to a stock purchase agreement shall be paid either: (i) in cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, according to a deferred payment or other arrangement with the person to whom the Common Stock is sold; or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board or the Committee in their discretion; including but not limited to payment of the purchase price pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instruction to pay the aggregate exercise price of the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee to which administration of the Plan has been delegated may award Common Stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit. (d) Shares of Common Stock sold or awarded under the Plan may, but need not, be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board or the Committee. 25 (e) In the event a person ceases to be an employee of or ceases to serve as a director or consultant to the Company or an Affiliate, the Company may repurchase or otherwise reacquire any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by that person which have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement between the Company and such person. (f) To the extent provided by the terms of a stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement, a participant may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the lapsing of a repurchase option in favor of the Company or vesting of a stock bonus or a restricted stock award by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares of the Common Stock otherwise deliverable to a participant as a result of the lapsing of a repurchase option in favor of the Company or the vesting of a stock bonus or a restricted stock award a number of shares having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding. SECTION 8. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. (a) During the terms of the Stock Awards granted under the Plan, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock required to satisfy such Stock Awards up to the number of shares of Common Stock authorized under the Plan. (b) The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of Common Stock under the Stock Awards granted under the Plan; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act either the Plan, any Stock Award granted under the Plan or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Stock Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until such authority is obtained. 26 SECTION 9. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM COMMON STOCK. Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Stock Awards granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company. SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) The Board or Committee shall have the power to accelerate the time during which a Stock Award may be exercised or the time during which a Stock Award or any part thereof will vest, notwithstanding the provisions in the Stock Award stating the time during which it may be exercised or the time during which it will vest. Each Discretionary Stock Option providing for vesting pursuant to Article II, paragraph 5(e) shall also provide that if the employee's employment or a director's or consultant's affiliation with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (within the meaning of Title II or XVI of the Social Security Act or comparable statute applicable to an Affiliate and with such permanent and total disability certified by (i) the Social Security Administration, (ii) the comparable governmental authority applicable to an Affiliate, (iii) such other body having the relevant decision- making power applicable to an Affiliate or (iv) an independent medical advisor appointed by the Company, as applicable, prior to such termination), then the vesting schedule of Discretionary Stock Options granted to such employee, director or consultant or to the Trusts of such employee, director or consultant shall be accelerated by twelve months for each full year the employee has been employed by or the director or consultant has been affiliated with the Company and/or an Affiliate of the Company. (b) Neither an optionee nor any person to whom an Option is transferred under the provisions of the Plan shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject to such Option unless and until such person has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms. (c) Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Stock Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any eligible employee, consultant, director, optionee or holder of Stock Awards under the Plan any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate or to continue acting as a consultant or director or shall affect the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the employment or consulting relationship or directorship of any eligible employee, consultant, director, optionee or holder of Stock Awards under the Plan with 27 or without cause. In the event that a holder of Stock Awards under the Plan is permitted or otherwise entitled to take a leave of absence, the Company shall have the unilateral right to (i) determine whether such leave of absence will be treated as a termination of employment or relationship as consultant or director for purposes hereof, and (ii) suspend or otherwise delay the time or times at which exercisability or vesting would otherwise occur with respect to any outstanding Stock Awards under the Plan. SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK. If any change is made in the Common Stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award granted under the Plan (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan and outstanding Stock Awards will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of shares subject to the Plan, the maximum number of shares which may be granted to a participant in a calendar year, the class(es) and number of shares and price per share of stock subject to outstanding Stock Awards, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted as Non-Discretionary Director Awards, if any. Such adjustment shall be made by the Board or the Committee, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a "transaction not involving the receipt of consideration".) SECTION 12. CHANGE OF CONTROL. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, in the event of a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined), then, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) the time during which Stock Awards become vested shall automatically be accelerated so that the unvested portions of all Stock Awards shall be vested prior to the Change in Control and (ii) the time during which the Options may be exercised shall automatically be accelerated to prior to the Change in Control. Upon and following the acceleration of the vesting and exercise periods, at the election of the holder of the Stock Award, the Stock Award may be: (x) exercised (with respect to Options) or, if the surviving or acquiring corporation agrees to assume the Stock Awards or substitute similar stock awards, (y) assumed; or (z) replaced with substitute stock awards. Options not exercised, substituted or assumed prior to or upon the 28 Change in Control shall be terminated. (b) For purposes of Article II of the Plan, a "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred at any of the following times: (i) upon the acquisition (other than from the Company) by any person, entity or "group," within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act (excluding, for this purpose, the Company or its affiliates, or any employee benefit plan of the Company or its affiliates which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of the Company), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of fifty percent (50%) or more of either the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; or (ii) at the time individuals who, as of July 15, 2002, constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to July 15, 2002, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the Directors of the Company, as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) shall be, for purposes of Article II of the Plan, considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (iii) immediately prior to the consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, (in each case, with respect to which persons who were the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting securities) or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) the occurrence of any other event which the Incumbent Board in its sole 29 discretion determines constitutes a Change of Control. SECTION 13. QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS (a) Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, rights under Stock Awards may be assigned to an Alternate Payee to the extent that a QDRO so provides. (The terms "Alternate Payee" and "QDRO" are defined in Article II, paragraph 13(c) below.) The assignment of a Stock Award to an Alternate Payee pursuant to a QDRO shall not be treated as having caused a new grant. The transfer of an Incentive Stock Option to an Alternate Payee may, however, cause it to fail to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. If a Stock Award is assigned to an Alternate Payee, the Alternate Payee generally has the same rights as the grantee under the terms of the Plan; provided however, that (i) the Stock Award shall be subject to the same vesting terms and exercise period as if the Stock Award were still held by the grantee and (ii) an Alternate Payee may not transfer a Stock Award. (b) In the event of the Plan administrator's receipt of a domestic relations order or other notice of adverse claim by an Alternate Payee of a grantee of a Stock Award, transfer of the proceeds of the exercise of such Stock Award, whether in the form of cash, stock or other property, may be suspended. Such proceeds shall thereafter be transferred pursuant to the terms of a QDRO or other agreement between the grantee and Alternate Payee. A grantee's ability to exercise a Stock Award may be barred if the Plan administrator receives a court order directing the Plan administrator not to permit exercise. (c) The word "QDRO" as used in Article II of the Plan shall mean a court order (i) that creates or recognizes the right of the spouse, former spouse or child (an "Alternate Payee") of an individual who is granted a Stock Award to an interest in such Stock Award relating to marital property rights or support obligations and (ii) that the administrator of the Plan determines would be a "qualified domestic relations order," as that term is defined in section 414(p) of the Code and section 206(d) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"), but for the fact that the Plan is not a plan described in section 3(3) of ERISA. SECTION 14. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. (a) The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Article II, Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in the 30 Common Stock, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the adoption of the amendment, where the amendment will: (i) increase the number of shares reserved for Stock Awards under the Plan; (ii) modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan (to the extent such modification requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 422(b) of the Code); or (iii) modify the Plan in any other way if such modification requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 422(b) of the Code. (b) The Board may in its sole discretion submit any other amendment to the Plan for stockholder approval, including, but not limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder regarding the exclusion of performance- based compensation from the limit on corporate deductibility of compensation to certain executive officers. (c) It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide optionees with the maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to employee Incentive Stock Options and/or to bring the Plan and/or Options granted under it into compliance therewith. (d) Rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan, unless: (i) the Company requests the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted; and (ii) such person consents in writing. SECTION 15. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN. (a) The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated. No 31 Incentive Stock Options may be granted under the Plan after March 10, 2003. (b) Rights and obligations under any Stock Awards granted while the Plan is in effect shall not be impaired by suspension or termination of the Plan, except with the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted. (c) Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the Plan shall automatically terminate on March 11, 2003 (which is the tenth anniversary of the date on which the Board of Directors of Immunex Corporation first adopted the Original Plan). No Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan after such termination. 32 EX-10.2 4 dex102.txt AMENDED & RESTATED 1999 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN Exhibit 10.2 AMGEN INC.

In the event that a written agreement pursuant to which the Acquisition Transaction is completed is approved by the Board and said agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the 5 substitution for or assumption of outstanding options of the Acquired Entity, said terms and conditions shall be deemed to be the action of the Plan Administrator without any further action by the Plan Administrator, except as may be required for compliance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, and the persons holding such awards shall be deemed to be Optionees. SECTION 7. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. 7.1 Grant of Options. The Plan Administrator is authorized under the Plan, in its sole discretion, to issue Options as Incentive Stock Options or as Nonqualified Stock Options, which shall be appropriately designated. 7.2 Option Exercise Price. The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be as determined by the Plan Administrator, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date with respect to Incentive Stock Options and not less than 85% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date with respect to Nonqualified Stock Options. For Incentive Stock Options granted to a more than 10% stockholder, the Option exercise price shall be as specified in Article I, Section 8.2. 7.3 Term of Options. The term of each Option (the "Option Term") shall be as established by the Plan Administrator or, if not so established, shall be 10 years from the Grant Date. For Incentive Stock Options, the maximum Option Term shall be as specified in Article I, Sections 8.2 and 8.4. 7.4 Exercise of Options. The Plan Administrator shall establish and set forth in each instrument that evidences an Option the time at which, or the installments in which, the Option shall vest and become exercisable, which provisions may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time. If not so established in the instrument evidencing the Option, the Option shall vest and 6 become exercisable according to the following schedule, which may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time: Period of Optionee's Continuous Employment Portion of Total Option or Service With the Company or Its Related That Is Vested and Exercisable Corporations From the Option Grant Date After one year 20% After two years 40% After three years 60% After four years 80% After five years 100% Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option granted under Article I of the Plan shall become 100% vested and exercisable on the date of termination of an Optionee's employment or service relationship with the Company or a Related Corporation on account of the Optionee's death, provided that the Optionee has been in the continuous employment of or service to the Company or a Related Corporation for at least two years at the date of such Optionee's death. The Plan Administrator may adjust the vesting schedule of an Option held by an Optionee who works less than "full-time" as that term is defined by the Plan Administrator. To the extent that the right to purchase shares has accrued thereunder, an Option may be exercised from time to time by delivery to the Company of a stock option exercise agreement or notice, in a form and in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, setting forth the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, the restrictions imposed on the shares purchased under such exercise agreement, if any, and such representations and agreements as may be required by the Company, accompanied by payment in full as described in Article I, Section 7.5. An Option may not be exercised as to less than a reasonable number of shares at any one time, as determined by the Plan Administrator. 7.5 Payment of Exercise Price. The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be paid in full to the Company by delivery of consideration equal to the product of the Option exercise price and the 7 number of shares purchased. Such consideration must be paid in cash or by check or, unless the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion determines otherwise, either at the time the Option is granted or at any time before it is exercised, in any combination of (a) cash or check; (b) tendering (either actually or, if and so long as the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, by attestation) shares of Common Stock already owned by the Optionee for at least six months (or any shorter period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for financial reporting purposes) having a Fair Market Value on the day prior to the exercise date equal to the aggregate Option exercise price; (c) if and so long as the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, delivery of an exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions, to a brokerage firm designated by the Company to deliver promptly to the Company the aggregate amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise and the Company to deliver the certificates for such purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board; or (d) such other consideration as the Plan Administrator may permit. In addition, to assist an Optionee (including an Optionee who is an officer or a director of the Company) in acquiring shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Option granted under the Plan, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may authorize, either at the Grant Date or at any time before the acquisition of Common Stock pursuant to the Option, (i) the payment by the Optionee of a full-recourse promissory note, (ii) the payment by the Optionee of the purchase price, if any, of the Common Stock in installments, or (iii) the guarantee by the Company of a loan obtained by the Optionee from a third party. Subject to the foregoing, the Plan Administrator shall in its sole discretion specify the terms of any loans, installment payments or loan guarantees, including the interest rate and terms of and security for repayment. 7.6 Post-Termination Exercises. The Plan Administrator shall establish and set forth in each instrument that evidences an Option whether the Option shall continue to be exercisable, and the terms and conditions of 8 such exercise, if an Optionee ceases to be employed by, or to provide services to, the Company or its Related Corporations, which provisions may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time. If not so established in the instrument evidencing the Option, the Option shall be exercisable according to the following terms and conditions, which may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time: (a) Any portion of an Option that is not vested and exercisable on the date of termination of the Optionee's employment or service relationship (the "Termination Date") shall expire on such date, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. (b) Any portion of an Option that is vested and exercisable on the Termination Date shall expire upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the last day of the Option Term; (ii) if the Optionee's Termination Date occurs for reasons other than Cause, Disability, death or Retirement, the three-month anniversary of such Termination Date; and (iii) if the Optionee's Termination Date occurs by reason of Disability, death or Retirement, the one-year anniversary of such Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Optionee dies after the Termination Date while the Option is otherwise exercisable, the Option shall expire upon the earlier to occur of (y) the last day of the Option Term and (z) the first anniversary of the date of death. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, in case of termination of the Optionee's employment or service relationship for Cause, the Option shall automatically expire upon first notification to the Optionee of such termination, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. If an Optionee's employment or service relationship with the Company is suspended pending an investigation of whether the Optionee shall be terminated for Cause, all the Optionee's rights under any Option likewise shall be suspended during the period of investigation. An Optionee's transfer of employment or service relationship between or among the Company and its Related Corporations, or a change in status from an employee to a consultant that is evidenced by a written agreement between an Optionee and the Company or a Related 9 Corporation, shall not be considered a termination of employment or service relationship for purposes of this Article I, Section 7. Employment or service relationship shall be deemed to continue while the Optionee is on a bona fide leave of absence, if such leave was approved by the Company or a Related Corporation in writing and if continued crediting of service for purposes of this Article I, Section 7 is expressly required by the terms of such leave or by applicable law (as determined by the Company). The effect of a Company-approved leave of absence on the terms and conditions of an Option shall be determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion. SECTION 8. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION LIMITATIONS. To the extent required by Section 422 of the Code, Incentive Stock Options shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions: 8.1 Dollar Limitation. To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the Grant Date) of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other stock option plans of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such portion in excess of $100,000 shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option. In the event the Optionee holds two or more such Options that become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, such limitation shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such Options are granted. 8.2 More Than 10% Stockholders. If an individual owns more than 10% of the total voting power of all classes of the Company's stock, then the exercise price per share of an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date and the Option Term shall not exceed five years. The determination of more than 10% ownership shall be made in accordance with Section 422 of the Code. 8.3 Eligible Employees. Individuals who are not employees of the Company or one of its parent corporations or subsidiary corporations may not be granted Incentive Stock Options. For purposes of this 10 Article I, Section 8.3, "parent corporation" and "subsidiary corporation" shall have the meanings attributed to those terms for purposes of Section 422 of the Code. 8.4 Term. Except as provided in Article I, Section 8.2, the Option Term shall not exceed 10 years. 8.5 Exercisability. An Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent it is exercised (if permitted by the terms of the Option) (a) more than three months after the Termination Date for reasons other than death or Disability, (b) more than one year after the Termination Date by reason of Disability, or (c) after the Optionee has been on leave of absence for more than 90 days, unless the Optionee's reemployment rights are guaranteed by statute or contract. For purposes of this Article I, Section 8.5, Disability shall mean "disability" as that term is defined for purposes of Section 422 of the Code. 8.6 Taxation of Incentive Stock Options. In order to obtain certain tax benefits afforded to Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Code, the Optionee must hold the shares issued upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option for two years after the Grant Date and one year from the date of exercise. An Optionee may be subject to the alternative minimum tax at the time of exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. The Optionee shall give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares acquired by the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option prior to the expiration of such holding periods. 8.7 Promissory Notes. The amount of any promissory note delivered pursuant to Article I, Section 7.5 in connection with an Incentive Stock Option shall bear interest at a rate specified by the Plan Administrator, but in no case less than the rate required to avoid imputation of interest (taking into account any exceptions to the imputed interest rules) for federal income tax purposes. 11 SECTION 9. WITHHOLDING. The Company may require the Optionee to pay to the Company the amount of any withholding taxes that the Company is required to withhold with respect to the grant, vesting or exercise of any Option. Subject to the Plan and applicable law, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit the Optionee to satisfy withholding obligations, in whole or in part, by paying cash, by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock or by transferring shares of Common Stock to the Company, in such amounts as are equivalent to the Fair Market Value of the withholding obligation. The Company shall have the right to withhold from any Option or any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Option or from any cash amounts otherwise due or to become due from the Company to the Optionee an amount equal to such taxes. The Company may also deduct from any Option any other amounts due from the Optionee to the Company or a Related Corporation. SECTION 10. ASSIGNABILITY. Options granted under Article I of the Plan and any interest therein may not be assigned, pledged or transferred by the Optionee and may not be made subject to attachment or similar proceedings otherwise than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution, and, during the Optionee's lifetime, such Options may be exercised only by the Optionee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by Section 422 of the Code, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit such assignment, transfer and exercisability and may permit an Optionee to designate a beneficiary who may exercise the Option or receive compensation under the Option after the Optionee's death; provided, however, that any Option so assigned or transferred shall be subject to all the same terms and conditions contained in the instrument evidencing the Option. SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION. 11.1 Adjustment of Shares. The aggregate number and class of shares for which Options may be granted under the Plan, the number and class of shares covered by each outstanding Option and the exercise price per share thereof (but not the total price), shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a split-up or consolidation of shares or any like capital adjustment, or the payment of any stock dividend 12 (not including the stock dividend approved by the Board of Directors of Immunex on February 23, 1999). 11.2 Cash, Stock or Other Property for Stock. Except as provided in Article I, Section 11.3, upon a merger (other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of Common Stock in the surviving corporation immediately after the merger), consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization (other than a mere reincorporation or the creation of a holding company) or liquidation of the Company, as a result of which the stockholders of the Company receive cash, stock or other property in exchange for or in connection with their shares of Common Stock, any Option granted hereunder shall terminate, but the Optionee shall have the right immediately prior to any such merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization to exercise such Option in whole or in part whether or not the vesting requirements set forth in the Option agreement have been satisfied. 11.3 Conversion of Options on Stock for Stock Exchange. If the stockholders of the Company receive capital stock of another corporation ("Exchange Stock") in exchange for their shares of Common Stock in any transaction involving a merger (other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of Common Stock in the surviving corporation immediately after the merger), consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization (other than a mere reincorporation or the creation of a holding company), the Company and the corporation issuing the Exchange Stock, in their sole discretion, may determine that all Options granted hereunder shall be converted into options to purchase shares of Exchange Stock instead of terminating in accordance with the provisions of Article I, Section 11.2. The amount and price of converted options shall be determined by adjusting the amount and price of the Options granted hereunder in the same proportion as used for determining the number of shares of Exchange Stock the holders of the Common Stock receive in such merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization. Unless accelerated by the Board, the vesting schedule set forth in the Option agreement shall continue to apply to the options granted for the Exchange Stock. The aggregate number and kind of shares for which options may be granted under this Plan shall be 13 proportionately adjusted in the event of such merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or reorganization. 11.4 Fractional Shares. In the event of any adjustment in the number of shares covered by any Option, any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be disregarded and each such Option shall cover only the number of full shares resulting from such adjustment. 11.5 Determination of Board to Be Final. All Article I, Section 11 adjustments shall be made by the Plan Administrator, and its determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final, binding and conclusive. Unless an Optionee agrees otherwise, any change or adjustment to an Incentive Stock Option shall be made in such a manner so as not to constitute a "modification" as defined in Section 424(h) of the Code and so as not to cause his or her Incentive Stock Option issued hereunder to fail to continue to qualify as an "incentive stock option" as defined in Section 422(b) of the Code. 11.6 Limitations. The grant of Options shall in no way affect the Company's right to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. SECTION 12. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN. 12.1 Amendment of Plan. The Plan may be amended only by the Board in such respects as it shall deem advisable; provided, however, that to the extent required for compliance with Section 422 of the Code or any applicable law or regulation, stockholder approval shall be required for any amendment that would (a) increase the total number of shares available for issuance under the Plan, (b) modify the class of persons eligible to receive Options, or (c) otherwise require stockholder approval under any applicable law or regulation. Any amendment made to the Plan that would constitute a "modification" to Incentive Stock Options outstanding on the date of such amendment shall 14 not, without the consent of the Optionee, be applicable to such outstanding Incentive Stock Options but shall have prospective effect only. 12.2 Termination of Plan. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. The Plan shall have no fixed expiration date; provided, however, that no Incentive Stock Options may be granted more than 10 years after the later of (a) the Plan's adoption by the Board of Directors of Immunex and (b) the adoption by the Board of Directors of Immunex of any amendment to the Plan that constitutes the adoption of a new plan for purposes of Section 422 of the Code. 12.3 Consent of Optionee. The amendment or termination of the Plan or the amendment of an outstanding Option shall not, without the Optionee's consent, impair or diminish any rights or obligations under any Option theretofore granted to the Optionee under the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no outstanding Option shall be terminated without the consent of the Optionee. Any change or adjustment to an outstanding Incentive Stock Option shall not, without the consent of the Optionee, be made in a manner so as to constitute a "modification" that would cause such Incentive Stock Option to fail to continue to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. SECTION 13. GENERAL. 13.1 Evidence of Options. Options granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written instrument that shall contain such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Plan Administrator shall deem advisable and that are not inconsistent with the Plan. 13.2 No Individual Rights. Nothing in the Plan or any Option granted under the Plan shall be deemed to constitute an employment contract or confer or be deemed to confer on any Optionee any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Related Corporation or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Related Corporation of the 15 Company to terminate an Optionee's employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 13.3 Registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan or make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless such issuance, delivery or distribution would comply with all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the requirements of the Securities Act), and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity. The Company shall be under no obligation to any Optionee to register for offering or resale or to qualify for exemption under the Securities Act, or to register or qualify under state securities laws, any shares of Common Stock, security or interest in a security paid or issued under, or created by, the Plan, or to continue in effect any such registrations or qualifications if made. The Company may issue certificates for shares with such legends and subject to such restrictions on transfer and stop-transfer instructions as counsel for the Company deems necessary or desirable for compliance by the Company with federal and state securities laws. To the extent that the Plan or any instrument evidencing an Option provides for issuance of stock certificates to reflect the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the issuance may be effected on a noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of any stock exchange. 13.4 No Rights as a Stockholder. No Option shall entitle the Optionee to any cash dividend, voting or other right of a stockholder unless and until the date of issuance under the Plan of the shares that are the subject of such Option. 13.5 Compliance With Laws and Regulations. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the use of any provision of the Plan to Optionees who are officers or directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Optionees. 16 Additionally, in interpreting and applying the provisions of the Plan, any Option granted as an Incentive Stock Option pursuant to the Plan shall, to the extent permitted by law, be construed as an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. 13.6 Optionees in Foreign Countries. The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to adopt such modifications, procedures and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of foreign countries in which the Company or its Related Corporations may operate to assure the viability of the benefits from Options granted to Optionees employed in such countries and to meet the objectives of the Plan. 13.7 No Trust or Fund. The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan. Nothing contained herein shall require the Company to segregate any monies or other property, or shares of Common Stock, or to create any trusts, or to make any special deposits for any immediate or deferred amounts payable to any Optionee, and no Optionee shall have any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. 13.8 Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Option is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person, or would disqualify the Plan or any Option under any law deemed applicable by the Plan Administrator, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or, if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the Plan Administrator's determination, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Option, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Option, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Option shall remain in full force and effect. 13.9 Choice of Law. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Washington without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws. 17 SECTION 14. EFFECTIVE DATE. The Effective Date of the Original Plan was the date on which it was adopted by the Board of Directors of Immunex, provided that it was approved by Immunex's stockholders at any time within 12 months of such adoption. SECTION 15. ADDENDUM TO ARTICLE I OF THE PLAN. Notwithstanding anything in Article I of the Plan or any program adopted under the Original Plan to the contrary, effective as of the Effective Time (as defined in the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between the Company, AMS Acquisition Inc. and Immunex dated as of December 16, 2001, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 15, 2002 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement")), the following provisions shall constitute an addendum (the "Addendum") to Article I of the Plan: 15.1. At the Effective Time, each option granted pursuant Article I of the Plan shall be treated in accordance with the applicable terms of the Merger Agreement. 15.2. In the event that an optionee's employment with Immunex or the Company is terminated by the optionee for Good Reason or by Immunex or the Company without Cause during the fifteen (15) months following the Effective Time, each option held by such optionee for Common Stock that was granted pursuant to the Merger Agreement with respect to (a) a Cancelled Company Option (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or (b) an option for common stock of Immunex that was granted after December 16, 2001, shall immediately vest in full and shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the optionee's termination of employment or (y) the end of the term of such option. 15.3. In the event that an optionee who is a nonemployee director of Immunex immediately prior to the Effective Time ceases to be a director of Immunex or the Company for any reason immediately prior to, at, or during the fifteen (15) months following the Effective Time, each option held by such optionee for Common Stock shall immediately vest in full and shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the date such optionee ceases to be a director of Immunex or the Company or (y) the end of the term of such option. 18 15.4. For purposes of this Addendum only, "Good Reason" shall mean the occurrence on or after the Effective Time and without the optionee's consent of, (a) a reduction in the optionee's annual base salary or wages, other than as part of a general reduction applicable to substantially all employees of Immunex or the Company employed in the United States or (ii) the relocation of the optionee's principal place of employment to a location more than fifty (50) miles from the optionee's principal place of employment prior to the Effective Time. 15.5. For purposes of this Addendum only, "Cause" shall mean (a) the willful and continued failure by the optionee to substantially perform the optionee's duties with Immunex or the Company (other than such failure resulting form the optionee's incapacity due to physical or mental illness) or (b) the willful engaging by the optionee in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to Immunex or the Company, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the optionee's part shall be deemed willful unless done, or omitted to be done, by the optionee not in good faith or without reasonable belief that the optionee's act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of Immunex or the Company. ARTICLE II. PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO OPTIONS GRANTED ON OR AFTER RESTATEMENT DATE The following provisions of this Article II shall govern awards granted under the Plan on or after the Restatement Date: SECTION 1. PURPOSE. (a) The purpose of Article II of the Plan is to provide a means by which employees or directors of and consultants to Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and its Affiliates, as defined in Article II, paragraph 1(b), directly, or indirectly through Trusts, may be given an opportunity to benefit from increases in value of the stock of the Company through the granting of (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonqualified stock options, (iii) stock bonuses, and (iv) rights to purchase restricted stock, all as defined below. (b) The word "Affiliate" as used in Article II of the Plan means any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 19 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). (c) The Company, by means of Article II of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of persons now employed by or serving as directors or consultants to the Company, to secure and retain the services of persons capable of filling such positions, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company. (d) The Company intends that the rights issued under Article II of the Plan ("Stock Awards") shall, in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or any committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to Article II, paragraph 2(c), be either (i) stock options granted pursuant to Article II, Sections 5 or 6 hereof, including incentive stock options as that term is used in Section 422 of the Code ("Incentive Stock Options"), or options which do not qualify as Incentive Stock Options ("Nonqualified Stock Options") (together hereinafter referred to as "Options"), or (ii) stock bonuses or rights to purchase restricted stock granted pursuant to Article II, Section 7 hereof. (e) The word "Trust" as used in Article II of the Plan shall mean a trust created for the benefit of the employee, director or consultant, his or her spouse, or members of their immediate family. The word optionee shall mean the person to whom the option is granted or the employee, director or consultant for whose benefit the option is granted to a Trust, as the context shall require. SECTION 2. ADMINISTRATION. (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board unless and until the Board delegates administration to a committee, as provided in Article II, paragraph 2(c). (b) The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan: (1) To determine from time to time which of the persons eligible under the Plan shall be granted Stock Awards; when and how Stock Awards shall be granted; whether a Stock Award will be an Incentive Stock Option, a Nonqualified Stock Option, a stock bonus, a right to purchase restricted stock, or a combination of the foregoing; the provisions of each Stock Award granted (which need not be identical), including the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase or receive stock pursuant to a Stock Award; and the number of 20 shares with respect to which Stock Awards shall be granted to each such person. (2) To construe and interpret the Plan and Stock Awards granted under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or in any Stock Award, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective. (3) To amend the Plan as provided in Article II, Section 14. (4) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company. (c) The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a committee composed of not fewer than two (2) members of the Board (the "Committee"). One or more of these members may be non-employee directors and outside directors, if required and as defined by the provisions of Article II, paragraphs 2(e) and 2(f). If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board (except amendment of any program adopted pursuant to Article II, Section 6 or any Non-Discretionary Director Awards granted thereunder shall only be by action taken by the Board or a committee of one or more members of the Board to which such authority has been specifically delegated by the Board), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of Article II of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. Notwithstanding anything else in this Article II, paragraph 2(c) to the contrary, at any time the Board or the Committee may delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board the authority to grant or amend options to all employees, directors or consultants or any portion or class thereof. (d) Notwithstanding anything else in the Plan to the contrary, at any time the Board or the Committee may authorize by duly adopted resolution one or more Officers (as defined below) (each a "Delegated Officer") to take the actions described in Article II, paragraph 2(b)(1) of the Plan with respect to Options only, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of Article II of the Plan; provided, however, that a Delegated Officer shall not have the power to (1) grant any Options to himself, any non-employee director, consultant, Trust, other Delegated Officer or Officer, (2) determine the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase stock pursuant to the exercise of an Option (i.e., vesting), (3) 21 determine the exercise price of an Option, or (4) grant any Option to a parent corporation of the Company, as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code. The resolution authorizing a Delegated Officer to act as such shall specify the total number of shares of Common Stock that a Delegated Officer may grant with respect to Options. The exercise price (including any formula by which such price or prices may be determined) and the time or times when a person shall be permitted to purchase stock pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall, however, be set by the Board or the Committee and not by a Delegated Officer to the extent required by Delaware General Corporation Law Section 157 or any other applicable law. The term "Officer" shall include any natural person who is elected as a corporate officer of the Company by the Board. (e) The term "non-employee director" shall mean a member of the Board who (i) is not currently an officer of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) or an employee of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company; (ii) does not receive compensation from the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company for services rendered in any capacity other than as a member of the Board (including a consultant) in an amount required to be disclosed to the Company's stockholders under Rule 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Rule 404"); (iii) does not possess an interest in any other transaction required to be disclosed under Rule 404; or (iv) is not engaged in a business relationship required to be disclosed under Rule 404, as all of these provisions are interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. (f) The term "outside director," as used in Article II of this Plan, shall mean an administrator of the Plan, whether a member of the Board or of any Committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to Article II, paragraph 2(c), who is considered to be an "outside director" in accordance with the rules, regulations or interpretations of Section 162(m) of the Code. (g) Any requirement that an administrator of the Plan be a "non-employee director" or "outside director" shall not apply if the Board or the Committee expressly declares that such requirement shall not apply. SECTION 3. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. 22 (a) Subject to the provisions of Article II, Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, the stock that may be issued pursuant to Stock Awards granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate 19,273,852 shares of the Company's $.0001 par value common stock (the "Common Stock"). If any Stock Award granted under the Plan shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full, the Common Stock not purchased under such Stock Award shall again become available for the Plan. Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to any repurchase rights reserved by the Company pursuant to the Plan shall not be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan. (b) The Common Stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise. (c) An Incentive Stock Option may be granted to an eligible person under the Plan only if the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which incentive stock options (as defined by the Code) are exercisable for the first time by such optionee during any calendar year under all such plans of the Company and its Affiliates does not exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). If it is determined that an entire Option or any portion thereof does not qualify for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option by reason of exceeding such maximum, such Option or the applicable portion shall be considered a Nonqualified Stock Option. SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY. (a) Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees (including officers) of the Company or its Affiliates. A director of the Company shall not be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options unless such director is also an employee of the Company or any Affiliate. Stock Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to employees (including officers) or directors of or consultants to the Company or any Affiliate or to Trusts of any such employee, director or consultant. (b) A director shall in no event be eligible for the benefits of the Plan (other than Non-Discretionary Director Awards, as defined in Article II, Section 6) unless and until such director is expressly declared eligible to participate in the Plan by action of the Board or the Committee, and only if, at any time discretion is exercised by the Board or the Committee in the selection of a director as a person to whom Stock Awards may be granted, or in the 23 determination of the number of shares which may be covered by Stock Awards granted to a director, the Plan complies with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as from time to time in effect. The Board shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as from time to time in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this Article II, paragraph 4(b) shall not apply if the Board or Committee expressly declares that such restrictions shall not apply. (c) No person shall be eligible for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan if, at the time of grant, such person owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any of its Affiliates unless the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option is at least one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and the Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant. (d) Stock Awards shall be limited to a maximum of 649,455 shares of Common Stock per person per calendar year. SECTION 5. TERMS OF DISCRETIONARY STOCK OPTIONS. An option granted pursuant to this Article II, Section 5 (a "Discretionary Stock Option") shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The provisions of separate Options need not be identical, but each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions: (a) No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it was granted. (b) The exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option and each Nonqualified Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted. (c) The purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either: (i) in cash at the time 24 the Option is exercised; or (ii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, either at the time of grant or exercise of the Option (A) by delivery to the Company of shares of Common Stock that have been held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings and valued at the fair market value on the date of exercise, (B) according to a deferred payment or other arrangement with the person to whom the Option is granted or to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to Article II, paragraph 5(d), or (C) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board or the Committee in their discretion; including but not limited to payment of the purchase price pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instruction to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be payable at least annually and shall be charged at not less than the minimum rate of interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the deferred payment arrangement. (d) An Option granted to a natural person shall be exercisable during the lifetime of such person only by such person, provided that such person during such person's lifetime may designate a Trust to be such person's beneficiary with respect to any Incentive Stock Options and with respect to any Nonqualified Stock Options, and such beneficiary shall, after the death of the person to whom the Option was granted, have all the rights that such person has while living, including the right to exercise the Option. In the absence of such designation, after the death of the person to whom the Option is granted, the Option shall be exercisable by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such Option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. (e) The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option may, but need not, be allotted in periodic installments (which may, but need not, be equal). From time to time during each of such installment periods, the Option may become exercisable ("vest") with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to that period, and may be exercised with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to such period and/or any prior period as to which the Option was not fully exercised. During the remainder of the term of the Option (if its term extends beyond the end of the installment periods), the Option may be exercised from time to time with respect to any shares then remaining subject to the Option. The provisions of this Article II, 25 paragraph 5(e) are subject to any Option provisions governing the minimum number of shares as to which an Option may be exercised. (f) The Company may require any optionee, or any person to whom an Option is transferred under Article II, paragraph 5(d), as a condition of exercising any such Option: (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to such person's knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative who has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, and that such person is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that such person is acquiring the Common Stock subject to the Option for such person's own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Common Stock. These requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if: (x) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise of the Option has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"); or (y) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities law. (g) An Option shall terminate three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate, unless: (i) such termination is due to the optionee's permanent and total disability, within the meaning of Section 422(c)(6) of the Code and with such permanent and total disability being certified by the Social Security Administration prior to such termination, in which case the Option may, but need not, provide that it may be exercised at any time within one (1) year following such termination of employment or relationship as a consultant or director; (ii) the optionee dies while in the employ of or while serving as a consultant or director to the Company or an Affiliate, or within not more than three (3) months after termination of such employment or relationship as a consultant or director, in which case the Option may, but need not, provide that it may be exercised at any time within eighteen (18) months following the death of the optionee by the person or persons to whom the optionee's rights under such Option pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; or (iii) the Option by its term specifies either (A) that it shall terminate sooner than three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate; or (B) that it may be exercised more than three (3) months after termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or an Affiliate. This Article II, 26 paragraph 5(g) shall not be construed to extend the term of any Option or to permit anyone to exercise the Option after expiration of its term, nor shall it be construed to increase the number of shares as to which any Option is exercisable from the amount exercisable on the date of termination of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director. (h) The Option may, but need not, include a provision whereby the optionee may elect at any time during the term of the optionee's employment or relationship as a consultant or director with the Company or any Affiliate to exercise the Option as to any part or all of the shares subject to the Option prior to the stated vesting dates of the Option. Any shares so purchased from any unvested installment or Option may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Board or the Committee determines to be appropriate. (i) To the extent provided by the terms of an Option, each optionee may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise of such Option by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares of the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the optionee as a result of the exercise of the Option a number of shares having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding. SECTION 6. NON-DISCRETIONARY DIRECTOR AWARDS. The Board may from time to time adopt award programs under the Plan providing for the grant of formula or non-discretionary Stock Awards to directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or any Affiliate ("Non-Discretionary Director Awards"). The terms and conditions of any such program shall be established by the Board in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. SECTION 7. TERMS OF STOCK BONUSES AND PURCHASES OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem appropriate. The 27 terms and conditions of stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate agreements need not be identical, but each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions as appropriate: (a) The purchase price under each stock purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board or Committee shall determine and designate in such agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee may determine that eligible participants in the Plan may be awarded stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit. (b) No rights under a stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be assignable by any participant under the Plan, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except where such assignment is required by law or expressly authorized by the terms of the applicable stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement. (c) The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to a stock purchase agreement shall be paid either: (i) in cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, according to a deferred payment or other arrangement with the person to whom the Common Stock is sold; or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board or the Committee in their discretion; including but not limited to payment of the purchase price pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instruction to pay the aggregate exercise price of the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee to which administration of the Plan has been delegated may award Common Stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit. (d) Shares of Common Stock sold or awarded under the Plan may, but need not, be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board or the Committee. (e) In the event a person ceases to be an employee of or ceases to serve as a director or consultant to the Company or an Affiliate, the Company may repurchase or otherwise 28 reacquire any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by that person which have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement between the Company and such person. (f) To the extent provided by the terms of a stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement, a participant may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the lapsing of a repurchase option in favor of the Company or vesting of a stock bonus or a restricted stock award by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares of the Common Stock otherwise deliverable to a participant as a result of the lapsing of a repurchase option in favor of the Company or the vesting of a stock bonus or a restricted stock award a number of shares having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock having a fair market value less than or equal to the amount of the Company's required minimum statutory withholding. SECTION 8. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. (a) During the terms of the Stock Awards granted under the Plan, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock required to satisfy such Stock Awards up to the number of shares of Common Stock authorized under the Plan. (b) The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of Common Stock under the Stock Awards granted under the Plan; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act either the Plan, any Stock Award granted under the Plan or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Stock Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until such authority is obtained. SECTION 9. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM COMMON STOCK. Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Stock Awards granted under the 29 Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company. SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) The Board or Committee shall have the power to accelerate the time during which a Stock Award may be exercised or the time during which a Stock Award or any part thereof will vest, notwithstanding the provisions in the Stock Award stating the time during which it may be exercised or the time during which it will vest. Each Discretionary Stock Option providing for vesting pursuant to Article II, paragraph 5(e) shall also provide that if the employee's employment or a director's or consultant's affiliation with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (within the meaning of Title II or XVI of the Social Security Act or comparable statute applicable to an Affiliate and with such permanent and total disability certified by (i) the Social Security Administration, (ii) the comparable governmental authority applicable to an Affiliate, (iii) such other body having the relevant decision-making power applicable to an Affiliate or (iv) an independent medical advisor appointed by the Company, as applicable, prior to such termination), then the vesting schedule of Discretionary Stock Options granted to such employee, director or consultant or to the Trusts of such employee, director or consultant shall be accelerated by twelve months for each full year the employee has been employed by or the director or consultant has been affiliated with the Company and/or an Affiliate of the Company. (b) Neither an optionee nor any person to whom an Option is transferred under the provisions of the Plan shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject to such Option unless and until such person has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms. (c) Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Stock Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any eligible employee, consultant, director, optionee or holder of Stock Awards under the Plan any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate or to continue acting as a consultant or director or shall affect the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the employment or consulting relationship or directorship of any eligible employee, consultant, director, optionee or holder of Stock Awards under the Plan with or without cause. In the event that a holder of Stock Awards under the Plan is permitted or otherwise entitled to take a leave of absence, the Company shall have the unilateral right to (i) determine whether such leave of absence will be treated as a termination of employment or relationship as consultant or director for purposes hereof, and (ii) suspend or otherwise delay 30 the time or times at which exercisability or vesting would otherwise occur with respect to any outstanding Stock Awards under the Plan. SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK. If any change is made in the Common Stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award granted under the Plan (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan and outstanding Stock Awards will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of shares subject to the Plan, the maximum number of shares which may be granted to a participant in a calendar year, the class(es) and number of shares and price per share of stock subject to outstanding Stock Awards, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted as Non-Discretionary Director Awards, if any. Such adjustment shall be made by the Board or the Committee, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a "transaction not involving the receipt of consideration".) SECTION 12. CHANGE OF CONTROL. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, in the event of a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined), then, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) the time during which Stock Awards become vested shall automatically be accelerated so that the unvested portions of all Stock Awards shall be vested prior to the Change in Control and (ii) the time during which the Options may be exercised shall automatically be accelerated to prior to the Change in Control. Upon and following the acceleration of the vesting and exercise periods, at the election of the holder of the Stock Award, the Stock Award may be: (x) exercised (with respect to Options) or, if the surviving or acquiring corporation agrees to assume the Stock Awards or substitute similar stock awards, (y) assumed; or (z) replaced with substitute stock awards. Options not exercised, substituted or assumed prior to or upon the Change in Control shall be terminated. (b) For purposes of Article II of the Plan, a "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred at any of the following times: 31 (i) upon the acquisition (other than from the Company) by any person, entity or "group," within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act (excluding, for this purpose, the Company or its affiliates, or any employee benefit plan of the Company or its affiliates which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of the Company), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of fifty percent (50%) or more of either the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; or (ii) at the time individuals who, as of July 15, 2002, constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to July 15, 2002, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the Directors of the Company, as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) shall be, for purposes of Article II of the Plan, considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (iii)immediately prior to the consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, (in each case, with respect to which persons who were the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting securities) or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) the occurrence of any other event which the Incumbent Board in its sole discretion determines constitutes a Change of Control. SECTION 13. QUALIFIED DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS (a) Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, rights under Stock Awards may be assigned to an Alternate Payee to the extent that a QDRO so provides. (The terms 32 "Alternate Payee" and "QDRO" are defined in Article II, paragraph 13(c) below.) The assignment of a Stock Award to an Alternate Payee pursuant to a QDRO shall not be treated as having caused a new grant. The transfer of an Incentive Stock Option to an Alternate Payee may, however, cause it to fail to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. If a Stock Award is assigned to an Alternate Payee, the Alternate Payee generally has the same rights as the grantee under the terms of the Plan; provided however, that (i) the Stock Award shall be subject to the same vesting terms and exercise period as if the Stock Award were still held by the grantee and (ii) an Alternate Payee may not transfer a Stock Award. (b) In the event of the Plan administrator's receipt of a domestic relations order or other notice of adverse claim by an Alternate Payee of a grantee of a Stock Award, transfer of the proceeds of the exercise of such Stock Award, whether in the form of cash, stock or other property, may be suspended. Such proceeds shall thereafter be transferred pursuant to the terms of a QDRO or other agreement between the grantee and Alternate Payee. A grantee's ability to exercise a Stock Award may be barred if the Plan administrator receives a court order directing the Plan administrator not to permit exercise. (c) The word "QDRO" as used in Article II of the Plan shall mean a court order (i) that creates or recognizes the right of the spouse, former spouse or child (an "Alternate Payee") of an individual who is granted a Stock Award to an interest in such Stock Award relating to marital property rights or support obligations and (ii) that the administrator of the Plan determines would be a "qualified domestic relations order," as that term is defined in section 414(p) of the Code and section 206(d) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"), but for the fact that the Plan is not a plan described in section 3(3) of ERISA. SECTION 14. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. (a) The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Article II, Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in the Common Stock, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the adoption of the amendment, where the amendment will: (i) increase the number of shares reserved for Stock Awards under the Plan; (ii) modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan (to 33 the extent such modification requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 422(b) of the Code); or (iii) modify the Plan in any other way if such modification requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 422(b) of the Code. (b) The Board may in its sole discretion submit any other amendment to the Plan for stockholder approval, including, but not limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder regarding the exclusion of performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate deductibility of compensation to certain executive officers. (c) It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide optionees with the maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to employee Incentive Stock Options and/or to bring the Plan and/or Options granted under it into compliance therewith. (d) Rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan, unless: (i) the Company requests the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted; and (ii) such person consents in writing. SECTION 15. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN. (a) The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated. No Incentive Stock Options may be granted under the Plan after February 22, 2009. (b) Rights and obligations under any Stock Awards granted while the Plan is in effect shall not be impaired by suspension or termination of the Plan, except with the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted. 34 STOCK OPTION GRANT PROGRAM FOR NONEMPLOYEE DIRECTORS UNDER THE IMMUNEX CORPORATION AMENDED AND RESTATED 1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN The following provisions set forth the terms of the stock option grant program (the "Program") for nonemployee directors of Immunex Corporation (the "Company") under the Company's Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The following terms are intended to supplement, not alter or change, the provisions of the Plan, and in the event of any inconsistency between the terms contained herein and in the Plan, the Plan shall govern. All capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall be as defined in the Plan. 1. Administration The Board shall be the Plan Administrator of the Program. Subject to the terms of the Program, the Plan Administrator shall have the power to construe the provisions of the Program, to determine all questions arising hereunder and to adopt and amend such rules and regulations for the administration of the Program as it may deem desirable. 2. Eligibility Each member of the Board elected or appointed who is not otherwise an employee of the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary, or a director appointed by American Cyanamid Company or American Home Products Corporation pursuant to the Amended and Restated Governance Agreement among American Cyanamid Company, Lederle Oncology Corporation and Immunex Corporation dated as of December 15, 1992 (an "Eligible Director") shall be eligible to receive Initial Grants and Annual Grants under the Program. 3.

Annual Grants Subject to Sections 9 and 12 hereof, each Eligible Director continuing service as an Eligible Director immediately following an annual meeting of shareholders shall automatically receive an Option to purchase 20,000 shares immediately following each year's annual meeting of shareholders as an annual grant (an "Annual Grant"); provided, however, that an Eligible 1 Director who received an Initial Grant on such date shall not receive an Annual Grant until the next annual meeting. 5. Option Exercise Price The exercise price of an Option shall be the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the effective date of an Initial or Annual Grant. 6. Vesting and Exercisability Each Option granted to an Eligible Director shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with the following vesting schedule:
Period of Eligible Director's Continuous Service as a Portion of Total Option Which Is Vested Director With the Company From the Grant Date and Exercisable ----------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- Less than twelve months 0% Twelve months 20% Twenty-four months 40% Thirty-six months 60% Forty-eight months 80% Sixty months or greater 100%
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option granted under the Program shall become 100% vested and exercisable on the date of termination of an Eligible Director's service as a member of the Board on account of the Eligible Director's death, provided that the Eligible Director has served as a member of the Board for at least two years at the date of such Eligible Director's death. 7. Manner of Option Exercise An Option shall be exercised by giving the required notice to the Company, stating the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised, accompanied by payment in full for such Common Stock, which payment may be in any combination of (a) cash or check, (b) tendering (either actually or, if and so long as the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, by attestation) shares of Common Stock already owned by the Eligible Director for at least six months (or any minimum period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for financial reporting purposes) having a Fair Market Value on the day prior to the exercise date equal to the aggregate Option exercise price; or (c) if and so long as the Common Stock is registered under the Exchange Act, by delivery of a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker, to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the 2 Option exercise price and the Company to deliver the certificates for such purchased shares directly to such broker, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board. 8. Term of Options Each Option shall expire ten years from the Grant Date thereof, but shall be subject to earlier termination as follows: (a) In the event that an Eligible Director ceases to be a director of the Company for any reason other than the death of the Eligible Director, the unvested portion of any Option granted to such Eligible Director shall terminate immediately and the vested portion of the Option may be exercised by the Eligible Director only within three months after the date he or she ceases to be a director of the Company or prior to the date on which the Option expires by its terms, whichever is earlier. (b) In the event of the termination of an Eligible Director's service as a member of the Board on account of the Eligible Director's death, the vested portion of any Option granted to such Eligible Director may be exercised within one year after the date of death of the Eligible Director or prior to the date on which the Option expires by its terms, whichever is earlier, by the personal representative of the Eligible Director's estate, the person(s) to whom the Eligible Director's rights under the Option have passed by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution or the beneficiary designated pursuant to the Plan. (c) In the event of the death of an Eligible Director subsequent to the termination of an Eligible Director's services, but prior to the expiration of the three-month exercise period referred to in Section 8(a) above, the vested portion of the Option at the time of the termination of the Eligible Directors services may be exercised within one year after the date of the termination of the Eligible Director's services or prior to the date on which the Option expires by its terms, whichever is earlier, by the personal representative of the Eligible Director's estate, the person(s) to whom the Eligible Director's rights under the Option have passed by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution or the beneficiary designated pursuant to the Plan. 9. Adjustments The number and class of shares covered by each outstanding Option and the exercise price per share thereof (but not the total price) shall all be proportionately adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations, combinations or exchanges of shares, split-ups, split-offs, spinoffs, or other similar changes in capitalization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an automatic grant occurs within ninety days following any such change in capitalization, the aggregate number and class of shares subject to such automatic grant shall be proportionately adjusted to be the same number and class of shares that would be subject to the automatic grant had it been outstanding immediately prior to the date of such change in capitalization. Upon the effective date of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or of a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more corporations that results in more than 70% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company being owned by one or more affiliated corporations or other affiliated entities, or of a transfer of all or substantially all the assets or more than 70% of the then outstanding shares of the Company to another corporation or other entity, the Program 3 and all Options granted hereunder shall terminate. In the event of such dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, merger, consolidation, transfer of assets or transfer of stock, each Eligible Director shall be entitled, for a period of twenty days prior to the effective date of such transaction, to purchase the full number of shares under his or her Option which he or she otherwise would have been entitled to purchase during the remaining term of such Option. Adjustments under this Section 9 shall be made by the Plan Administrator, whose determination shall be final. In the event of any adjustment in the number of shares covered by any Option, any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be disregarded and each such Option shall cover only the number of full shares resulting from such adjustment. 10. Compliance with Rule 16b-3 It is the intention of the Company that the Program comply in all respects with the requirements for a "formula plan" within the meaning attributed to that term for purposes of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Therefore, if any provision is later found not to be in compliance with such requirements, that provision shall be deemed null and void, and in all events the Program shall be construed in favor of its meeeting such requirements. 11. Amendment, Suspension or Termination The Board may amend the provisions contained in the Program in such respects as it deems advisable. The Board may also suspend or terminate the Program. Any such amendment, suspension or termination shall not, without the consent of the Eligible Director, impair or diminish any rights of an Eligible Director under an Option. Provisions of the Plan (including any amendments) that were not discussed above, to the extent applicable to Eligible Directors, shall continue to govern the terms and conditions of Options granted to Eligible Directors. 12. Effective Date The Program shall become effective on the day the Board approves the adoption of the Program. Adopted by the Board on February 8, 2001. 4

Except as provided in Section 7.2, an employee who becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after an Offering has commenced shall not be eligible to participate in such Offering but may participate in any subsequent Offering, provided that such employee is still an Eligible Employee as of the commencement of any such subsequent Offering. Eligible Employees may not participate in more than one Offering at a time. 7.2 Alternative Initial Participation Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the Board or the Committee may provide for any future Offering that any employee of Immunex or any Designated Subsidiary who first meets the requirements of subparagraphs (a) through (c) of the paragraph "Eligible Employee" in Section 2 during the course of an Offering shall, on a date or dates specified in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person first meets such requirements or occurs on a specified date thereafter, receive an Option under that Offering which Option shall thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such Option shall have the same characteristics as any Options originally granted under that Offering, except that: (i) the date on which such Option is granted shall be the "Offering Date" of such Option for all purposes, including determining the Purchase Price of such Option; provided, however, that if the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date on which such Option is granted is less than the fair market value of Common Stock on the first day of the Offering, then, solely for the purpose of determining the Purchase Price of such Option, the first day of the Offering shall be the "Offering Date" for such Option; (ii) the Purchase Period(s) for such Option shall begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the remaining Purchase Date(s) for such Offering; and (c) the Board or the Committee may provide that if such person first meets such requirements within a specified period of time before the end of a Purchase Period for such Offering, he or she will not receive any Option for that Purchase Period. 7.3 Continued Participation A Participant shall automatically participate in the next Offering until such time as such Participant withdraws from the Plan pursuant to Section 11.1 or 11.2 or terminates employment as provided in Section 12. 6 SECTION 8. LIMITATIONS ON RIGHT TO PURCHASE SHARES 8.1 Number of Shares Purchased Subject to Section 8.3, the maximum number of shares of stock that may be offered to a Participant on any Offering Date shall be equal to $15,000 divided by the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the applicable Offering Date. Further, no Participant shall be entitled to purchase Common Stock under the Plan (or any other employee stock purchase plan that is intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 423 sponsored by the Company, Immunex, a Parent Corporation or a Subsidiary Corporation) with a fair market value exceeding $15,000, determined as of the Offering Date for each Offering (or such other limit as may be imposed by the Code), in any calendar year in which a Participant participates in the Plan (or other employee stock purchase plan described in this Section 8.1). For any future Offering, the Board or the Committee may specify a maximum number of shares which may be purchased by any Participant as well as a maximum aggregate number of shares which may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering. In addition, for any future Offering with more than one Purchase Date, the Board or the Committee may specify a maximum aggregate number of shares which may be purchased by all Participants on any given Purchase Date under the Offering. 8.2 Pro Rata Allocation In the event the number of shares of Common Stock that might be purchased by all Participants in the Plan exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock available in the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares of Common Stock in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as the Plan Administrator shall determine to be equitable. Fractional shares may not be issued under the Plan unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise for any future Offering. 8.3 Purchase Period Ending on October 31, 2002 Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 8.1, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be offered to any Participant with respect to the Purchase Period commencing on May 1, 2002 and ending on October 31, 2002 shall be equal to $15,000, divided by the following quotient: (a) the closing price on May 1, 2002 of a share of Immunex Common Stock as reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market, divided by (b) the ESPP Conversion Ratio. SECTION 9. PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE 9.1 General Rules Subject to Section 9.12, Common Stock that is acquired pursuant to the exercise of all or any portion of an Option may be paid for only by means of payroll deductions from the Participant's Eligible Compensation. Except as set forth in this Section 9, the amount of compensation to be withheld from a Participant's Eligible Compensation during each pay period shall be determined by the Participant's Subscription. 9.2 Changes in Withholding Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator for any future Offering, a Participant may not elect to increase or decrease the amount to be withheld from his or 7 her Eligible Compensation for an Offering; provided, however, that if such elections are permitted for any future Offering, notice of such elections must be delivered to the Plan Administrator in such form and in accordance with such terms as the Plan Administrator may establish for the Offering. 9.3 Percent Withheld The amount of payroll withholding for each Participant for purchases pursuant to the Plan during any pay period shall be at least 1% but shall not exceed 15% of the Participant's Eligible Compensation for such pay period, but in no event shall exceed $15,000 per calendar year. Amounts shall be withheld in whole percentages only. 9.4 Payroll Deductions Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payday following the Offering Date and shall continue through the last payday of the Offering unless sooner altered or terminated as provided in the Plan. 9.5 Memorandum Accounts Individual accounts shall be maintained for each Participant for memorandum purposes only. All payroll deductions from a Participant's compensation shall be credited to such account but shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. All payroll deductions received or held by Immunex or the Company may be used by Immunex or the Company for any corporate purpose. 9.6 No Interest No interest shall be paid on payroll deductions received or held by Immunex or the Company. 9.7 Acquisition of Common Stock On each Purchase Date of an Offering, each Participant shall automatically acquire, pursuant to the exercise of the Participant's Option, the number of shares of Common Stock arrived at by dividing the total amount of the Participant's accumulated payroll deductions for the Purchase Period by the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Participant shall not exceed the number of whole shares of Common Stock so determined, unless the Plan Administrator has determined for any future Offering that fractional shares may be issued under the Plan; and provided, further, that the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Participant shall not exceed the number of shares for which Options have been granted to the Participant pursuant to Section 8.1. 9.8 Refund of Excess Amounts Any cash balance remaining in the Participant's account at the termination of each Purchase Period shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practical after the Purchase Date without the payment of any interest; provided, however, that if the Participant participates in the next Purchase Period, any cash balance remaining in the Participant's account shall be applied to the purchase of Common Stock in the new Purchase Period, provided such purchase complies with Section 8.1. 8 9.9 Withholding Obligations At the time the Option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Common Stock is disposed of, the Participant shall make adequate provision for federal and state withholding obligations of Immunex or the Company, if any, that arise upon exercise of the Option or upon disposition of the Common Stock. Immunex or the Company may withhold from the Participant's compensation the amount necessary to meet such withholding obligations. 9.10 Termination of Participation No Common Stock shall be purchased on behalf of a Participant on a Purchase Date if his or her participation in the Offering or the Plan has terminated on or before such Purchase Date. 9.11 Procedural Matters The Company may, from time to time, establish (a) limitations on the frequency and/or number of any permitted changes in the amount withheld during an Offering, as set forth in Section 9.2, (b) an exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, (c) payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company's processing of properly completed withholding elections and (d) such other limitations or procedures as deemed advisable by the Company in the Company's sole discretion that are consistent with the Plan and in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 423. 9.12 Leaves of Absence During leaves of absence approved by the Company (or by Immunex previous to the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) and meeting the requirements of the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, a Participant may elect to continue participation in the Plan by delivering cash payments to the Plan Administrator on the Participant's normal paydays equal to the amount of his or her payroll deduction under the Plan had the Participant not taken a leave of absence. Currently, the Treasury Regulations provide that a Participant may continue participation in the Plan only during the first 90 days of a leave of absence unless the Participant's reemployment rights are guaranteed by statute or contract. SECTION 10. COMMON STOCK PURCHASED UNDER THE PLAN 10.1 ESPP Broker If the Plan Administrator designates or approves a stock brokerage or other financial services firm (the "ESPP Broker") to hold shares purchased under the Plan for the accounts of Participants, the following procedures shall apply. Promptly following each Purchase Date, the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by each Participant shall be deposited into an account established in the Participant's name with the ESPP Broker. Each Participant shall be the beneficial owner of the Common Stock purchased under the Plan and shall have all rights of beneficial ownership in such Common Stock. A Participant shall be free to undertake a disposition of the shares of Common Stock in his or her account at any time, but, in the absence of such a 9 disposition, the shares of Common Stock must remain in the Participant's account at the ESPP Broker until the holding period set forth in Code Section 423 has been satisfied. With respect to shares of Common Stock for which the holding period set forth above has been satisfied, the Participant may move those shares of Common Stock to another brokerage account of the Participant's choosing or request that a stock certificate be issued and delivered to him or her. Dividends paid in the form of shares of Common Stock with respect to Common Stock in a Participant's account shall be credited to such account. A Participant who is not subject to payment of U.S. income taxes may move his or her shares of Common Stock to another brokerage account of his or her choosing or request that a stock certificate be delivered to him or her at any time, without regard to the Code Section 423 holding period. 10.2 Notice of Disposition By entering the Plan, each Participant agrees to promptly give the Company notice of any Common Stock disposed of within the later of one year from the Purchase Date and two years from the Offering Date for such Common Stock, showing the number of such shares disposed of and the Purchase Date and Offering Date for such Common Stock. This notice shall not be required if and so long as the Company has a designated ESPP Broker. SECTION 11. VOLUNTARY WITHDRAWAL 11.1 Withdrawal From an Offering A Participant may withdraw from an Offering by signing and delivering to the Plan Administrator a written notice of withdrawal on a form provided by the Plan Administrator for such purpose. Such withdrawal must be elected at least 10 days prior to the end of the Purchase Period for which such withdrawal is to be effective or by any other date specified by the Plan Administrator for any future Offering. If a Participant withdraws after the Purchase Date for a Purchase Period of an Offering, the withdrawal shall not affect Common Stock acquired by the Participant in any earlier Purchase Periods. Unless otherwise indicated, withdrawal from an Offering shall not result in a withdrawal from the Plan or any succeeding Offering therein. A Participant is prohibited from again participating in the same Offering at any time upon withdrawal from such Offering. The Company may, from time to time, impose a requirement that the notice of withdrawal be on file with the Plan Administrator for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness of the Participant's withdrawal. 11.2 Withdrawal From the Plan A Participant may withdraw from the Plan by signing a written notice of withdrawal on a form provided by the Plan Administrator for such purpose and delivering such notice to the Plan Administrator. Such notice must be delivered at least 10 days prior to the end of the Purchase Period for which such withdrawal is to be effective or by any other date specified by the Plan Administrator for any future Offering. In the event a Participant voluntarily elects to withdraw from the Plan, the Participant may not resume participation in the Plan during the same Offering, but may participate in any subsequent Offering under the Plan by again satisfying the definition of Eligible Employee. The Company may impose, from time to time, a requirement that the notice of withdrawal be 10 on file with the Plan Administrator for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness of the Participant's withdrawal. 11.3 Return of Payroll Deductions Upon withdrawal from an Offering pursuant to Section 11.1 or from the Plan pursuant to Section 11.2, the withdrawing Participant's accumulated payroll deductions that have not been applied to the purchase of Common Stock shall be returned as soon as practical after the withdrawal, without the payment of any interest, to the Participant and the Participant's interest in the Offering shall terminate. Such accumulated payroll deductions may not be applied to any other Offering under the Plan. SECTION 12. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT Termination of a Participant's employment with Immunex or a Designated Subsidiary or the Company for any reason, including retirement, death or any other failure of a Participant to remain an employee of Immunex or a Designated Subsidiary or the Company, shall immediately terminate the Participant's participation in the Plan. The payroll deductions credited to the Participant's account since the last Purchase Date shall, as soon as practical, be returned to the Participant or, in the case of a Participant's death, to the Participant's legal representative or designated beneficiary as provided in Section 13.2, and all of the Participant's rights under the Plan shall terminate. Interest shall not be paid on sums returned to a Participant pursuant to this Section 12. SECTION 13. RESTRICTIONS ON ASSIGNMENT 13.1 Transferability An Option granted under the Plan shall not be transferable and such Option shall be exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by the Participant. The Company will not recognize, and shall be under no duty to recognize, any assignment or purported assignment by a Participant of the Participant's interest in the Plan, of his or her Option or of any rights under his or her Option. 13.2 Beneficiary Designation The Plan Administrator may permit a Participant to designate a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the Participant's account under the Plan in the event the Participant dies after the Purchase Date for an Offering but prior to delivery to such Participant of such shares and cash. In addition, the Plan Administrator may permit a Participant to designate a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant's account under the Plan in the event that the Participant dies before the Purchase Date for an Offering. Such designation may be changed by the Participant at any time by written notice to the Plan Administrator. SECTION 14. NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER UNTIL SHARES ISSUED With respect to shares of Common Stock subject to an Option, a Participant shall not be deemed to be a stockholder of the Company, and he or she shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder. A Participant shall have the rights and privileges of a stockholder of the Company when, but not until, a certificate or its equivalent has been issued to the Participant for the shares following exercise of the Participant's Option. 11 SECTION 15. LIMITATIONS ON SALE OF COMMON STOCK PURCHASED UNDER THE PLAN The Plan is intended to provide Common Stock for investment and not for resale. The Company does not, however, intend to restrict or influence any Participant in the conduct of his or her own affairs. A Participant, therefore, may sell Common Stock purchased under the Plan at any time he or she chooses, subject to compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws. A Participant assumes the risk of any market fluctuations in the price of the Common Stock. SECTION 16. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN The Board may amend the Plan in such respects as it shall deem advisable; provided, however, that, to the extent required for compliance with Code Section 423 or any applicable law or regulation, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment that will (a) increase the total number of shares as to which Options may be granted under the Plan, (b) modify the class of employees eligible to receive Options, or (c) otherwise require stockholder approval under any applicable law or regulation. SECTION 17. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN The Plan shall have no fixed termination date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. During any period of suspension or upon termination of the Plan, no Options shall be granted; provided, however, that suspension or termination of the Plan shall have no effect on Options granted prior thereto. SECTION 18. NO RIGHTS AS AN EMPLOYEE Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give any person (including any Eligible Employee or Participant) the right to remain in the employ of Immunex or any of its affiliates or to affect the right of Immunex or any of its affiliates to terminate the employment of any person (including any Eligible Employee or Participant) at any time with or without cause. SECTION 19. EFFECT UPON OTHER PLANS The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for Immunex or any of its affiliates. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to limit the right of Immunex or any of its affiliates to (a) establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for employees of Immunex or any of its affiliates or (b) grant or assume options otherwise than under this Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose, including, but not by way of limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition, by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business, stock or assets of any corporation, firm or association. SECTION 20. ADJUSTMENTS 20.1 Adjustment of Shares In the event that, at any time or from time to time, a stock dividend, stock split (but not including the stock dividend approved by the board of directors of Immunex on February 23, 1999), spin-off, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, 12 merger, consolidation, distribution to stockholders other than a normal cash dividend, or other change in the Company's corporate or capital structure results in (a) the outstanding shares, or any securities exchanged therefor or received in their place, being exchanged for a different number or kind of securities of the Company or of any other corporation or (b) new, different or additional securities of the Company or of any other corporation being received by the holders of shares of Common Stock, then (subject to any required action by the Company's stockholders), the Board or the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall make such equitable adjustments as it shall deem appropriate in the circumstances in (i) the maximum number and kind of shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan as set forth in Section 4 and (ii) the number and kind of securities that are subject to any outstanding Option and the per share price of such securities. The determination by the Board or the Committee as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be conclusive and binding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a dissolution, liquidation, merger or asset sale of the Company shall not be governed by this Section 20.1 but shall be governed by Sections 20.2 and 20.3, respectively. 20.2 Merger or Asset Sale of Immunex or the Company In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Immunex or the Company, or the merger of Immunex or the Company with or into another corporation (but not including any internal corporate restructuring or reorganization involving Immunex and the Company), each outstanding Option shall be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary corporation of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Option, the Offering then in progress shall be shortened by setting a new Purchase Date. The new Purchase Date shall be a specified date before the date of the proposed sale or merger of Immunex or the Company. The Board shall notify each Participant in writing, at least 10 business days prior to the new Purchase Date, that the Purchase Date for the Participant's Option has been changed to the new Purchase Date and that the Participant's Option shall be exercised automatically on the new Purchase Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering or the Plan as provided in Section 11 hereof. 20.3 Dissolution or Liquidation of Immunex or the Company In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of Immunex or the Company (but not including any internal corporate restructuring or reorganization involving Immunex and the Company), the Offering then in progress shall be shortened by setting a new Purchase Date and shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Board. The new Purchase Date shall be a specified date before the date of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of Immunex or the Company. The Board shall notify each Participant in writing, at least 10 business days prior to the new Purchase Date, that the Purchase Date for the Participant's Option has been changed to the new Purchase Date and that the Participant's Option shall be exercised automatically on the new Purchase Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering or the Plan as provided in Section 11 hereof. 13 20.4 Limitations The grant of Options will in no way affect the Company's right to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. SECTION 21. REGISTRATION; CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES The Company shall be under no obligation to any Participant to register for offering or resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or register or qualify under state securities laws, any shares of Common Stock. The Company may issue certificates for shares with such legends and subject to such restrictions on transfer and stop-transfer instructions as counsel for the Company deems necessary or desirable for compliance by the Company with federal and state securities laws. SECTION 22. EFFECTIVE DATE The Plan's effective date is the date on which it was approved by Immunex's shareholders, which was April 29, 1999. The Plan was amended and restated by the board of directors of Immunex on April 25, 2000 and was amended and restated by the Board on July 15, 2002. 14
