Part I—Financial Information

WYETH

The consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by Wyeth (the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Recently Issued Accounting Standards: The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) recently issued the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company currently is assessing the impact this provision may have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. If adopted, unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company currently is assessing the impact this provision may have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the March 31, 2006 consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes to conform with the March 31, 2007 presentation.

At March 31, 2007, the reserve balance for personnel costs related primarily to committed employee severance obligations, which, in accordance with the specific productivity initiatives, are expected to be paid primarily over the next 36 months.

As other strategic decisions are made, the Company expects additional costs, such as asset impairment, accelerated depreciation, personnel costs and other exit costs, as well as certain implementation costs associated with these initiatives, to continue for several years.

Note 7. Income Taxes

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48) on January 1, 2007. As a result of the adoption, the Company recognized a $295.4 million increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties, across all jurisdictions, which were accounted for as a charge to retained earnings on January 1, 2007. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007 were $1,174.4 million. If these unrecognized tax benefits were recognized, there would be a favorable impact on the Provision for income taxes of $1,019.6 million. During the first quarter of 2007, there have been no material changes to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of Provision for income taxes. The Company had $346.6 million and $361.0 million of accrued interest and penalties as of January 1, 2007 and March 31, 2007, respectively.

The Company files tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax returns for years prior to 1998 generally are no longer subject to review as such years generally are closed. Taxing authorities in various jurisdictions are in the process of reviewing the Company’s tax returns for various post-1997 years, including the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS), which currently is examining the 1998 through 2001 tax returns of the Company. It is reasonably possible that this audit will conclude in the next 12 months. The Company will likely make a payment in the range of $120.0 million to $130.0 million for adjustments that have been currently agreed upon with the IRS; however, it is not possible to estimate the impact of any other adjustments that may result from the audit on our liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As part of this audit, the IRS is examining the pricing of the Company’s cross-border arrangements. While the Company believes that the pricing of these arrangements is appropriate and that its reserves are adequate with respect to such pricing, it is possible that the IRS will propose adjustments in excess of such reserves and that the conclusion of the audit will result in adjustments in excess of such reserves. An unfavorable resolution for open tax years could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in the period in which an adjustment is recorded and in future periods. The Company believes that an unfavorable resolution for open tax years would not be material to the financial position of the Company; however, each year the Company records significant tax benefits with respect to its cross-border arrangements, and the possibility of a resolution that is material to the financial position of the Company cannot be excluded.

Note 8. Contingencies and Commitments

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including product liability, patent, commercial, environmental and antitrust matters, of a nature considered normal to its business, the most important of which are described below and/or have been described in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed since the filing of the 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K. It is the Company’s policy to accrue for amounts related to these legal matters if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and an amount is reasonably estimable. Additionally, the Company records insurance receivable amounts from third-party insurers when recovery is probable. The following presents certain recent developments concerning the Company’s legal proceedings and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s prior reports.

Like all pharmaceutical companies in the current legal environment, the Company is involved in legal proceedings, including product liability and patent litigation, that are significant to its business, complex in nature and have outcomes that are difficult to predict. Product liability claims, regardless of their merits or their ultimate outcome, are costly, divert management attention, and may adversely affect the Company’s reputation and the demand for its products and may result in significant damages. Patent litigation, if resolved unfavorably, can injure the Company’s business by subjecting the Company’s products to earlier than expected generic competition and also can give rise to payment of significant damages or restrictions on the Company’s future ability to operate its business.

The Company intends to vigorously defend itself and its products in the litigation described below and in its prior filings and believes its legal positions are strong. However, in light of the circumstances discussed above, it is not possible to determine the ultimate outcome of the Company’s legal proceedings and, therefore, it is possible that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings could be material to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

Product Liability Litigation

Diet Drug Litigation

The litigation against the Company alleging that the Company’s former weight loss products, REDUX and/or PONDIMIN, caused certain serious conditions, including valvular heart disease and primary pulmonary hypertension, is described in detail in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Total diet drug litigation payments were $78.5 million for the 2007 first quarter, of which $29.9 million were made in connection with the nationwide settlement (including the Seventh Amendment). Payments under the national settlement may continue, if necessary, until 2018. As of March 31, 2007, $590.5 million of the Seventh Amendment security fund was included in Other current assets including deferred taxes, and $255.0 million was included in Other assets including deferred taxes. The amounts in the security funds are owned by the Company and will earn interest income for the Company while residing in the security fund. The Company has taken charges in connection with the REDUX and PONDIMIN diet drug matters which to date total $21,100.0 million. The $2,661.4 million reserve balance at March 31, 2007 represents management’s best estimate, within a range of outcomes, of the aggregate amount required to cover diet drug litigation costs. It is possible that additional reserves may be required in the future, although the Company does not believe that the amount of any such additional reserves is likely to be material.

Hormone Therapy Litigation

As of March 31, 2007, the Company was defending approximately 5,200 actions brought on behalf of approximately 7,900 women in various federal and state courts throughout the United States (including, in particular, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas and the Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia County) for personal injuries, including claims for breast cancer, stroke, ovarian cancer and heart disease, allegedly resulting from their use of PREMPRO or PREMARIN.

As described in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the New York Supreme Court, Onondaga County, had granted summary judgment in favor of the Company, dismissing the claims in Browning, et al. v. Wyeth, Inc., et al., No. 2003-0261, on the grounds, inter alia, that the labeling and warnings for PREMPRO and PREMARIN were adequate as a matter of law. On March 16, 2007 the Appellate Division, Fourth Department, of the New York Supreme Court unanimously affirmed the summary judgment and dismissal. Trials of additional hormone therapy (HT) cases are scheduled throughout 2007 and into 2008.

As the Company has not determined that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and an amount is reasonably estimable, the Company has not established any litigation accrual for its HT litigation.

PPA Litigation

With respect to the lawsuits seeking damages for alleged personal injuries from phenylpropanolamine (PPA) described in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as of March 31, 2007, the Company currently is a named defendant in approximately 55 individual PPA lawsuits on behalf of approximately 105 plaintiffs in federal and state courts throughout the United States and Canada seeking such damages.

Patent Litigation

ENBREL Litigation

On April 20, 2006, Amgen Inc. (Amgen) filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Ariad), seeking a declaratory judgment that ENBREL does not infringe one of Ariad’s patents. Wyeth was not named as a party to that suit. Ariad claims that its patent covers methods of treating disease by regulation or inhibition of NF-(kappa)B, a regulatory pathway within many cells. On April 13, 2007, Ariad amended its counterclaims against Amgen to include Wyeth as a party to the lawsuit.

EFFEXOR Litigation

As discussed in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company has filed suit against multiple generic companies that have filed Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA) seeking the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval to market generic 37.5 mg, 75 mg and 150 mg venlafaxine HCl extended release capsules. Venlafaxine HCl is the active ingredient used in EFFEXOR XR. On March 12, 2007, the Company filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against Lupin Ltd. and Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (collectively, Lupin), alleging that the filing by Lupin of an ANDA seeking FDA approval to market 37.5 mg, 75 mg and 150 mg venlafaxine HCl extended release capsules infringes the Company’s patents relating to methods of using extended release formulations of venlafaxine HCl. These patents, which expire in 2017, are the same patents that were at issue in the previously settled Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries, Ltd. (Teva) litigation (described in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Under the 30-month stay provision of the Hatch-Waxman Act, any FDA approval of the Lupin ANDA may not be made effective before July 2009 unless there is an earlier court decision holding each of the patents at issue invalid or not infringed. Because Lupin has not, to date, made any allegations as to the Company’s patent covering the compound venlafaxine itself, its ANDA cannot, in any event, be approved until the expiration of that patent, and its associated pediatric exclusivity period, on June 13, 2008.

On April 20, 2007, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina against Osmotica Pharmaceutical Corp. (Osmotica) alleging that Osmotica’s filing of an application with the FDA pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 355(b)(2), commonly known as a 505(b)(2) application, seeking approval to market 37.5 mg, 75 mg, 150 mg and 225 mg venlafaxine HCl extended release tablets infringes Wyeth’s patents relating to methods of using extended release formulations of venlafaxine HCl. These patents, which expire in 2017, are the same patents that were at issue in the previously settled Teva litigation (described in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Under the 30-month stay provision of the Hatch-Waxman Act, any FDA approval of the Osmotica application may not be made effective before September 2009 unless there is an earlier court decision holding each of the asserted patents invalid or not infringed. Because Osmotica has not, to date, made any allegations as to the Company’s patent covering the compound venlafaxine itself, Osmotica’s application cannot, in any event, be approved until the expiration of that patent, and its associated pediatric exclusivity period, on June 13, 2008.

Regulatory Proceedings

EFFEXOR Proceedings

With respect to the petition filed with the FDA by a consultant on behalf of an unnamed client seeking the FDA’s permission to submit an ANDA for venlafaxine extended release tablets utilizing the Company’s EFFEXOR XR capsules as the reference product described in the Company’s 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, it is noted that the Company has received notice of the filing of an application under 21 U.S.C. 355(b)(2) for a venlafaxine extended release tablet product (see Patent Litigation – EFFEXOR Litigation). It is not known whether this application has any relationship to the petition discussed above.

 

Note 9. Company Data by Segment

The Company has four reportable segments: Wyeth Pharmaceuticals (Pharmaceuticals), Wyeth Consumer Healthcare (Consumer Healthcare), Fort Dodge Animal Health (Animal Health) and Corporate. The Company’s Pharmaceuticals, Consumer Healthcare and Animal Health reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. The reportable segments are managed separately because they manufacture, distribute and sell distinct products and provide services that require differing technologies and marketing strategies. The Company’s Corporate segment is responsible for the treasury, tax and legal operations of the Company’s businesses and maintains and/or incurs certain assets, liabilities, income, expense, gains and losses related to the overall management of the Company that are not allocated to the other reportable segments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following commentary should be read in conjunction with the consolidated condensed financial statements and notes to consolidated condensed financial statements on pages 3 to 16 of this report. When reviewing the commentary below, you should keep in mind the substantial risks and uncertainties that characterize our business. In particular, we encourage you to review the risks and uncertainties described in “Item 1A. RISK FACTORS” in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements contained in this report or implied by past results and trends. Forward-looking statements are statements that attempt to forecast or anticipate future developments in our business; we encourage you to review the examples of our forward-looking statements under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on pages 39 to 41 of this report. These statements, like all statements in this report, speak only as of their date (unless another date is indicated), and we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements in light of future developments.

Overview

Our Business

Wyeth is one of the world’s largest research-based pharmaceutical and health care products companies and is a leader in the discovery, development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceuticals, biotechnology products, vaccines, non-prescription medicines and animal health products.

Our principal strategy for success is creation of innovative products through research and development. We strive to produce first-in-class and best-in-class therapies for significant unmet medical needs by leveraging our breadth of knowledge and our resources across three principal scientific development platforms: small molecules, biopharmaceuticals and vaccines.

We also strive to innovate commercially and change the way we approach our business in response to the challenging global health care environment. During the 2007 first quarter, we continued with our long-term global productivity initiatives, which were launched in 2005, to adapt to the changing pharmaceutical environment. These initiatives are aimed at encouraging innovation, improving processes and increasing cost efficiencies. Our ultimate goal is to move beyond specific initiatives and create a culture where we continually look for new ways to become more productive in everything we do as a company.

In April 2007, we completed the acquisition of the remaining 20% stake in Wyeth K.K., our joint venture company in Japan, held by Takeda Pharmaceuticals Company Limited, bringing our ownership in Wyeth K.K. to 100%. The purchase price for the remaining 20% was approximately $220.0 million.

2007 First Quarter Financial Highlights

  ·  

Worldwide net revenue increased 11% to $5,368.7 million;

 

  ·  

Pharmaceuticals net revenue increased 11%, reflecting the strong performance of PREVNAR, ENBREL, Nutrition products and ZOSYN, offset, in part, by lower sales of EFFEXOR, PROTONIX and the PREMARIN family of products. In addition, ZOTON and INDERAL LA sales decreased due to generic competition;

 

  ·  

Consumer Healthcare net revenue increased 10% resulting from higher sales of DIMETAPP, ROBITUSSIN and ADVIL COLD & SINUS products, which were negatively impacted in the 2006 first quarter by retailer actions and federal and state legislation related to pseudoephedrine-containing products. The 2007 first quarter results also reflected sales of ADVIL PM, which was introduced in the 2006 second quarter; and

 

  ·  

Animal Health net revenue increased 11%, reflecting higher sales of companion animal, livestock, equine and poultry products.

EFFEXOR is our novel antidepressant for treating adult patients with major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder and panic disorder. EFFEXOR remains our largest franchise and the number one selling antidepressant globally. See “Our Challenging Business Environment” beginning on page 24 for a discussion of the settlement agreement with Teva, pursuant to which Teva has launched generic versions of EFFEXOR (immediate release tablets) in the United States and EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) in Canada.

 

  ·  

PREVNAR is our vaccine for preventing invasive pneumococcal disease in infants and children. It is the first and only vaccine product ever to achieve $1 billion in annual net revenue and now is available in 76 countries worldwide and included in 16 national immunization programs (NIP). We anticipate the number of NIPs to increase as a result of the March 23, 2007 announcement by the World Health Organization recommending the inclusion of PREVNAR in NIPs.

 

  ·  

PROTONIX is our proton pump inhibitor (PPI) for gastroesophageal reflux disease. The PPI category is highly competitive, and we have continued to focus on our strategy of higher value prescriptions within the third-party managed care segment. We also are tailoring our marketing programs to capitalize on unique local market opportunities. PROTONIX continues to have the highest preferred access with health maintenance organizations among the branded PPIs and is the leader among branded PPIs on Medicare drug plan formularies.

 

  ·  

ENBREL is our treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and other conditions. We have exclusive rights to ENBREL outside the United States and Canada, and we co-promote ENBREL with Amgen in the United States and Canada. ENBREL maintains its leading U.S. market position in rheumatology and dermatology and is ranked ninth in global sales among all pharmaceutical products. ENBREL now is approved, launched and reimbursed in Japan, where, until recently, we had been operating under a routine government-required post-marketing safety program. In April 2007, this program was concluded, paving the way for broader patient access and expanded commercial opportunity for ENBREL in Japan.

 

  ·  

Alliance revenue includes our share of profits from sales of ENBREL in the United States and Canada, where we co-promote the product with Amgen; our share of profits from sales of ALTACE, which was co-promoted with King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (King) prior to 2007; and certain revenue earned related to sirolimus, the active ingredient in RAPAMUNE, which coats the CYPHER coronary stent marketed by Johnson & Johnson. In July 2006, Wyeth and King announced that the companies had entered into an Amended and Restated Co-Promotion Agreement regarding ALTACE. Effective January 1, 2007, King assumed full responsibility for the selling and marketing of ALTACE. Wyeth will receive a fee in 2007 through 2010, generally based on a percentage of ALTACE net sales and subject to annual payment limits.

ZOSYN (TAZOCIN internationally), our broad-spectrum I.V. antibiotic, is the number one selling injectable antibiotic worldwide. We continue to make significant progress introducing our new advanced formulation of ZOSYN. The new formulation was launched in the United States in the 2006 first quarter, and we anticipate that the majority of other markets will have access by mid-2007. See “Our Challenging Business Environment” beginning on page 24 for a discussion of potential generic competition for ZOSYN.

For a full description of our principal products, the preceding summary should be read in conjunction with our principal product summary in the overview section of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2006 Financial Report as incorporated in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our Product Pipeline

Our continued success depends, in large part, on the discovery and development of new and innovative pharmaceutical products and additional indications for existing products.

Our New Drug Application (NDA) filings with the FDA for PRISTIQ (desvenlafaxine succinate), a serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, for the treatment of major depressive disorder in 2005 and vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause in 2006 remain under regulatory review.

With respect to PRISTIQ for the treatment of major depressive disorder, we received an approvable letter from the FDA on January 22, 2007. According to the approvable letter, FDA approval of PRISTIQ is subject to several conditions, including: a satisfactory FDA inspection of our Guayama, Puerto Rico facility, which is where PRISTIQ will be manufactured; several post-marketing commitments, including submission of long-term relapse prevention, low-dose and pediatric studies; additional clarity around our product education plan for physicians and patients; and confirmation by the FDA of the acceptability of the proprietary name, PRISTIQ. See “Our Challenging Business Environment” beginning on page 24 for a discussion of the recent re-inspection of our Guayama, Puerto Rico facility.

We recently completed additional clinical trials of PRISTIQ in major depressive disorder, which included lower dosage levels. After completing all required analyses of the data from these clinical trials, we intend to include them in our complete response to the FDA approvable letter, which we anticipate filing with the FDA by the end of August 2007. We anticipate that the FDA will extend its review of the NDA for PRISTIQ for the treatment of major depressive disorder by six months from the date we submit our complete response, resulting in an anticipated FDA action date during the first quarter of 2008. We also plan to file a dossier in Europe for PRISTIQ for the depression indication, including the low-dose and all other available data, in the 2007 third quarter.

With respect to PRISTIQ as a non-hormonal treatment for vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, in April 2007, we submitted to the FDA data from a recently completed study of 100 mg and 150 mg doses that included a 50 mg titration step. We have been advised that the FDA will extend its review cycle for this indication by three months, to late July 2007, to include these data in its review of the NDA. We also plan to submit these data to the European regulatory authorities to support the ongoing review of our October 2006 marketing authorization application for PRISTIQ for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms in Europe.

On April 23, 2007, we received an approvable letter from the FDA with respect to our NDA for VIVIANT (bazedoxifene) for prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis, which we filed with the FDA in the second quarter of 2006. The approvable letter indicated, among other things, that before our NDA can be approved, the FDA must receive and analyze, as part of its benefit-risk assessment, final safety and efficacy data from our recently completed three-year osteoporosis treatment study and must complete an acceptable establishment evaluation for the manufacturing and testing facilities for bazedoxifene. We plan to complete our analysis of the three-year treatment data and submit it to the FDA by mid-year 2007 as part of our complete response to the approvable letter for the prevention indication. We anticipate a six-month review extension, from the date of submission of these data, resulting in a projected year-end 2007 action date from the FDA on our NDA. We also plan to include these data in our anticipated NDA filing for VIVIANT for the treatment of osteoporosis with the FDA later in 2007 and in our anticipated filing for VIVIANT in Europe later in 2007.

With respect to APRELA (bazedoxifene/conjugated estrogens), our tissue selective estrogen complex, we recently completed a Phase 3 clinical trial for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms, and we remain on track for an anticipated NDA filing for treatment of vasomotor symptoms and prevention of osteoporosis with the FDA at the end of 2007.

As part of the ongoing review of our NDA filing for TORISEL (temsirolimus) for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma, we recently submitted additional information on tumor evaluation at the request of the FDA. The FDA action date for the NDA has been extended by three months, to July 2007, to allow the agency time to complete a full review of this information. Our NDA for TORISEL for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma originally was submitted on October 5, 2006 and was granted priority review status in December 2006. A priority designation can be given to an NDA for a drug that, if approved, would be a significant improvement compared with existing treatments.

An NDA for bifeprunox for the treatment of schizophrenia, which was filed with the FDA in the 2006 third quarter in concert with our partner Solvay Pharmaceuticals (Solvay), remains under regulatory review, with an FDA action date in August 2007. Additionally, we continue to assess development options for bifeprunox in bipolar disorder, as our first study in this indication demonstrated signs of efficacy but did not show statistically significant separation from placebo on the primary efficacy endpoint. We and Solvay are analyzing these data to make a full assessment of the results and the determination of next steps for the program.

Our 2005 NDA filing with the FDA and our European Union (EU) regulatory filing for LYBREL (levonorgestrel/ethinyl estradiol), a new low-dose, non-cyclic continuous combination oral contraceptive, remain under regulatory review. In June 2006, we received an approvable letter for LYBREL from the FDA and submitted a complete response, including additional stability data regarding the LYBREL manufacturing method. We subsequently amended our LYBREL NDA to reflect a change to an improved manufacturing process. The FDA has advised us that it does not plan to convene an advisory committee meeting to review the clinical aspects of LYBREL, and we expect FDA action on our NDA in May 2007. Initial approval of LYBREL would be for contraception with the continuous regimen that has the potential to eliminate menstrual bleeding and would not include relief of cycle-related symptoms.

On March 30, 2007, our collaboration with Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. resulted in an NDA filing to the FDA for methylnaltrexone (subcutaneous formulation) for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation in patients receiving palliative care. In July 2006, we received fast track status from the FDA for the intravenous form of methylnaltrexone being investigated for the treatment of postoperative ileus, a serious impairment of gastrointestinal function that delays recovery and can prolong hospitalization. The fast track designation facilitates development and may expedite regulatory review of drugs that the FDA recognizes to potentially address an unmet medical need for serious or life-threatening conditions. An NDA submission is planned for the intravenous form of methylnaltrexone in early 2008.

With respect to TYGACIL, our innovative broad-spectrum I.V. antibiotic for serious, hospital-based infections, we currently are evaluating data received from Phase 3 clinical trials in anticipation of regulatory filings to potentially expand TYGACIL’s indications to include community-acquired pneumonia and hospital-acquired pneumonia.

In the 2007 first quarter, we enrolled the first group of adult patients in a Phase 3 clinical trial for our 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. Assuming positive results, we plan to make regulatory filings for this vaccine in infants and adults in 2009.

Certain Product Liability Litigation

Diet Drug Litigation

We continue to address the challenges of our diet drug litigation, which is described in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements, “Contingencies and Commitments,” contained in our 2006 Financial Report and in Note 8 to our consolidated condensed financial statements, “Contingencies and Commitments,” contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The $2,661.4 million reserve balance at March 31, 2007 represents our best estimate, within a range of outcomes, of the aggregate amount required to cover diet drug litigation costs. It is possible that additional reserves may be required in the future, although we do not believe that the amount of any such additional reserves is likely to be material.

Hormone Therapy Litigation

During 2006, we began the first of a number of trials in our hormone therapy litigation, which is discussed in greater detail in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements, “Contingencies and Commitments,” contained in our 2006 Financial Report and in Note 8 to our consolidated condensed financial statements, “Contingencies and Commitments,” contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As of March 31, 2007, we were defending approximately 5,200 actions brought on behalf of approximately 7,900 women in various federal and state courts throughout the United States for personal injuries, including primarily claims for breast cancer, as well as claims for (among other conditions) stroke, ovarian cancer and heart disease, allegedly resulting from their use of PREMPRO or PREMARIN. Trials of additional hormone therapy cases beyond those described in our 2006 Financial Report are scheduled throughout 2007 and into 2008. Individual trial results depend on a variety of factors, including many that are unique to the particular case, and our trial results to date, therefore, may not be predictive of future trial results. As we have not determined that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and an amount is reasonably estimable, we have not established any litigation accrual for our hormone therapy litigation.

Our Challenging Business Environment

Generally, we face the same difficult challenges that all research-based pharmaceutical companies are confronting. Pressure from government agencies, insurers, employers and consumers to lower prices through leveraged purchasing plans, use of formularies, importation, reduced reimbursement for prescription drugs and other means poses significant challenges for us. Generic products, which Wyeth no longer markets, are growing as a percentage of total prescriptions. Insurers and employers are increasingly demanding that patients start with a generic product before switching to a branded product if necessary, and our products increasingly compete with generic products. Regulatory burdens and safety concerns are increasing both the cost and time it takes to bring new drugs to market. Post-marketing regulatory and media scrutiny of product safety also is increasing.

On May 9, 2006, we received a Warning Letter from the FDA that raised several specific concerns about manufacturing at our Guayama, Puerto Rico facility. There are no patient safety concerns associated with the issues raised in the Warning Letter. In response to the Warning Letter, we have taken a number of steps to reinforce compliance at the Guayama, Puerto Rico site, including improving key standard operating procedures, hiring new personnel, undertaking additional training, expanding the senior leadership presence in Puerto Rico and engaging an independent expert consultant to supplement our oversight of Good Manufacturing Practices. In late March 2007, the FDA concluded its general re-inspection of the facility, and in April 2007 we responded in writing to the FDA’s inspectional observations. In May 2007, the FDA’s San Juan District Office informed us that the re-inspection resulted in a positive re-classification of the Guayama, Puerto Rico site. The new classification means that any issues found by the FDA have either been corrected by us or do not merit any further regulatory action.

Late in 2005, we reached agreement with Teva on a settlement of the U.S. patent litigation pertaining to Teva’s generic version of our EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) antidepressant. Under licenses granted to Teva as part of the settlement, Teva launched a generic version of EFFEXOR (immediate release tablets) in the United States in August 2006 and will be permitted to launch a generic version of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) in the United States beginning on July 1, 2010, subject to earlier launch based on specified events. Events that could trigger an earlier U.S. market entry by Teva with generic versions of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) include specific market conditions or developments regarding the applicable Wyeth patents, including the outcome of other generic challenges to the patents. Three lawsuits concerning such generic challenges currently are pending. We recently commenced a lawsuit against a fourth company that has filed an application pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 355(b)(2) challenging these same patents and seeking FDA approval to market venlafaxine HCl extended release tablets. Venlafaxine HCl is the active ingredient used in EFFEXOR XR. There can be no assurance that the outcome of these litigations, or the occurrence of specific market conditions, will not trigger generic entry, by Teva or another generic manufacturer, earlier than July 1, 2010. In connection with the licenses pursuant to the settlement, Teva will pay us specified percentages of gross profit from sales of each of the Teva generic versions, subject to adjustment or suspension based on market conditions and developments regarding the applicable patent rights. In addition, pursuant to an agreement reached with Teva with respect to a generic version of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) in Canada, Teva launched a generic version of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) in Canada in December 2006. We estimate that greater than three-fourths of EFFEXOR (immediate release tablets) prescriptions in the United States have been converted to Teva’s generic versions since the August 2006 launch. In addition, Teva’s launch of generic versions of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) in Canada in December 2006 has caused our net revenue in the Canadian market to decrease approximately 60% in the 2007 first quarter compared with the 2006 first quarter, and we anticipate that the decline likely will continue in that market. While it is possible that Teva’s introduction of a generic version of EFFEXOR (immediate release tablets) in the United States could adversely impact our U.S. sales of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules), we have not experienced an impact to date and continue to anticipate that any impact will be modest given the significant differences in product profiles.

Additionally, generic versions of EFFEXOR (immediate release tablets) and EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) have been introduced in select markets outside the United States and Canada. The impact on our 2007 first quarter results was limited, and we expect the impact on our results for the remainder of 2007 to be modest and slow to accrue over time given that these markets outside the United States and Canada represent a small portion of worldwide sales.

In December 2006, the Psychopharmacologic Drugs Advisory Committee met to discuss findings from the FDA’s meta-analysis of clinical trial data from placebo-controlled antidepressant trials submitted by pharmaceutical manufacturers of antidepressants. The purpose of the FDA’s analysis was to examine the occurrence of suicidality in the course of treating adult patients with various antidepressants. In contrast with the FDA’s prior review of pediatric antidepressant studies, the pooled analysis of the overall adult population found no treatment effect on suicidality. The FDA analyzed the pooled data across the 12 antidepressants by age and observed an elevated risk for suicidal behavior (not suicidal ideation) in adults younger than 25 years of age. Recently, the FDA has proposed labeling changes for all antidepressants reflecting this new information that we will implement as soon as practicable.

Our sales of ZOSYN could be significantly affected if the product faces generic competition in the United States and other major markets in the future. The compound patent claiming one of the active ingredients of ZOSYN expired in the United States in February 2007. Additional process and manufacturing patents extend beyond that expiration. Our new formulation of ZOSYN was approved by the FDA in 2005 and has additional patent protection extending to 2023. While our best estimate is that generic competition for ZOSYN in the United States will not occur until at least late 2007, it is possible that we will face generic competition as early as the 2007 second quarter, depending upon the FDA’s response to the petitions filed by Wyeth and third parties regarding ZOSYN, which are discussed in greater detail in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements, “Contingencies and Commitments,” in our 2006 Financial Report incorporated by reference into our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other factors. The compound patent claiming one of the active ingredients in ZOSYN will expire in most major countries outside the United States in the 2007 third quarter. Thus, we may face generic competition in these countries as early as the 2007 third quarter.

In December 2006, we received a request from the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) to change the currently authorized dosage recommendations for PREVENAR in Europe from a three-dose primary series plus one booster dose (3+1) to a two-dose primary series plus one booster dose (2+1). The 2+1 dosing schedule already is used in some EU Member States. During meetings in February 2007, we informed the scientific assessors for PREVENAR that we do not believe that the available scientific data provide an adequate basis to support such a change. Some change to the PREVENAR labeling to include an update of the data already included on the 2+1 schedule, as well as additional surveillance data, remains under consideration. Following discussions with the scientific assessors, we agreed that our formal, written response to the European Medicines Agency would be made in August 2007. The labeling outcome and its commercial impact, if any, are uncertain.

In recent months, additional analyses of the benefits and risks of hormone therapy in the treatment of menopausal symptoms have been published, including additional analyses of data from the Women’s Health Initiative. Wyeth continues to believe that hormone therapy remains a good health care choice for the appropriate woman seeking the relief of moderate to severe menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes, night sweats and vaginal atrophy, and the prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis, and that its product label appropriately reflects the product’s profile. Nevertheless, it is uncertain what impact, if any, the publicity about risks discussed in these publications will have on our net sales of PREMARIN and PREMPRO and our hormone therapy litigation.

We are in discussions with the FDA, the EMEA and other boards of health regarding the appropriate regulatory handling of certain minor process modifications introduced by our active ingredient supplier into the manufacturing process for the active ingredient of TYGACIL. These modifications do not affect the safety or efficacy of the product. At this time, we do not expect this issue to affect product supply, but there is a possibility of temporary supply shortages in some markets in the near term.

Generic versions of our product INDERAL LA, which had not been subject to generic competition for many years, entered the U.S. market in early 2007. As a result, net sales of this product in the United States, which totaled approximately $198 million for the 2006 full year, declined approximately 45% in the 2007 first quarter as compared with the 2006 first quarter.

We are planning a number of new product launches over the next few years in anticipation of which we have made and will continue to make significant investments in assets, including inventory, plant and equipment. Our ability to realize value on these investments is contingent on, among other things, regulatory approval and market acceptance of these new products. In addition, we have several products that are nearing the end of their patent terms. If we are unable to find alternative uses for the assets supporting these products or if we have excess inventory as a result of earlier than anticipated generic entry or otherwise, these assets may need to be evaluated for impairment.

Our Productivity Initiatives

We are continuing with our long-term global productivity initiatives, collectively called Project Springboard, which we launched in 2005, to adapt to the challenging pharmaceutical industry environment. Since inception of our productivity initiatives, total net pre-tax charges of $451.8 million have been recorded with respect to these initiatives. Additional costs associated with the productivity initiatives are expected to continue for several years as further strategic decisions are made; costs are projected to total approximately $750.0 million to $1,000.0 million, on a pre-tax basis. Throughout 2007 and in future years, we will continue with our long-term productivity initiatives with the objective of making Wyeth more efficient and more effective so that we may continue to thrive in this increasingly challenging industry environment.

Pharmaceuticals

Worldwide Pharmaceuticals net revenue increased 11% for the 2007 first quarter due primarily to higher sales of PREVNAR, ENBREL (outside the United States and Canada), Nutrition products and ZOSYN, offset, in part, by lower sales of EFFEXOR, PROTONIX and the PREMARIN family of products. In addition, ZOTON and INDERAL LA sales decreased due to generic competition. The increase in PREVNAR net revenue in the United States was primarily due to improvement in compliance rates in the United States and the addition of 250,000 doses to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention vaccine stockpile, as well as price increases in the United States. Internationally, PREVNAR net revenue increased 83% largely due to the positive impact of the NIPs that began in late 2006 in Germany, Mexico and the United Kingdom. ZOSYN sales increased due to the recovery from manufacturing supply limitations that impacted the 2006 first quarter. The decrease in EFFEXOR sales reflected year-over-year wholesaler inventory changes and the impact of Teva’s launch of a generic version of EFFEXOR (immediate release tablets) in the United States, as well as the introduction of Teva’s generic version of EFFEXOR XR (extended release capsules) in Canada. The PREMARIN family of products net revenue decrease was due to lower volume and lower wholesaler inventory levels in the 2007 vs. 2006 first quarter offset, in part, by price increases. Additionally, alliance revenue increased 20% to $304.0 million for the 2007 first quarter primarily as a result of higher sales of ENBREL in the United States and Canada. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange, worldwide Pharmaceuticals net revenue increased 9% for the 2007 first quarter.

Consumer Healthcare

Worldwide Consumer Healthcare net revenue increased 10% for the 2007 first quarter. The increase in the 2007 first quarter was due primarily to an increase in sales of ADVIL COLD & SINUS, DIMETAPP and ROBITUSSIN, which were negatively impacted in 2006 as a result of retailer actions and federal and state legislation related to pseudoephedrine-containing products. The 2007 first quarter also reflected sales of ADVIL PM, which was introduced in the 2006 second quarter. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange, worldwide Consumer Healthcare net revenue increased 8% for the 2007 first quarter.

Animal Health

Worldwide Animal Health net revenue increased 11% for the 2007 first quarter due primarily to higher sales of companion animal, livestock, equine and poultry products. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange, worldwide Animal Health net revenue increased 8% for the 2007 first quarter.

Sales Deductions

We deduct certain items from gross revenue, which primarily consist of provisions for product returns, cash discounts, chargebacks/rebates, customer allowances and consumer sales incentives. The provision for chargebacks/rebates relates primarily to U.S. sales of pharmaceutical products provided to wholesalers and managed care organizations under contractual agreements or to certain governmental agencies that administer benefit programs, such as Medicaid. While different programs and methods are utilized to determine the chargeback or rebate provided to the customer, we consider both to be a form of price reduction. Chargebacks/rebates are the only deductions from gross revenue that we consider significant and approximated $672.7 million for the 2007 first quarter compared with $553.7 million for the 2006 first quarter. The increase in chargebacks/rebates is primarily due to increased sales of PROTONIX to hospitals prior to the expiration of nominal pricing, as well as the overall increase in sales.

Except for chargebacks/rebates, provisions for each of the other components of sales deductions, including product returns, are individually less than 2% of gross sales.

Operating Expenses

Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of Net revenue, decreased 0.1 percentage point to 27.5% for the 2007 first quarter compared with 27.6% for the 2006 first quarter. Pharmaceuticals cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net revenue, increased 0.4 percentage point to 25.0% for the 2007 first quarter compared with 24.6% for the 2006 first quarter. The increase resulted from higher cost of sales associated with FDA-related compliance activities at our Guayama, Puerto Rico manufacturing facility and slightly higher royalty costs associated with higher ENBREL and PREVNAR sales. A less favorable product mix resulting from lower sales of higher margin EFFEXOR and higher sales of lower margin Nutrition products also negatively impacted Pharmaceuticals cost of goods sold. This increase was offset partially by an increase in alliance revenue, which has no associated cost of goods sold. In addition, offsetting the increase in Pharmaceuticals cost of goods sold was a 2.5 percentage point decrease, as a percentage of net revenue, in Consumer Healthcare cost of goods sold due to inventory adjustments and reserves recorded in the 2006 first quarter associated with pseudoephedrine-containing products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of Net revenue, decreased 2.1 percentage points for the 2007 first quarter compared with the 2006 first quarter. The 2007 first quarter decrease was primarily due to lower general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue in the Corporate and Animal Health segments as a result of lower legal and consulting expenses. Selling expenses were lower as a percentage of net revenue in the Consumer Healthcare segment primarily due to the 2006 first quarter accrual for loss on returns, which was recorded in connection with retailer actions and federal and state legislation related to pseudoephedrine-containing products and in the Pharmaceutical segment due to sales force restructuring.

Research and development expenses increased 10% for the 2007 first quarter as compared with the 2006 first quarter. The 2007 first quarter increase is primarily due to higher spending on various clinical programs, including methylnaltrexone, 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and various neuroscience new drug candidates, as well as higher compensation-related expenses.

Interest (Income) Expense and Other Income

Interest (income) expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 consisted of the following:

   (18.1 )   (14.7 )
            

Total interest (income) expense, net

   $(14.8 )   $5.5  
            

Interest income, net for the 2007 first quarter was $14.8 million as compared with Interest expense, net of $5.5 million for the 2006 first quarter. The change was due to higher interest income and higher capitalized interest offset partially by higher interest expense. Weighted average debt outstanding during the 2007 first quarter was $9,365.6 million compared with $9,198.3 million in the 2006 first quarter. The impact of higher weighted average debt outstanding on interest expense was offset by increased interest income earned on higher cash balances in the 2007 vs. 2006 first quarter. The Company’s higher average debt balance resulted from the March 27, 2007 issuance of $2,500.0 million of Notes in an offering registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The higher capitalized interest resulted from increased spending for long-term capital projects in process.

Other income, net decreased by approximately $14.9 million for the 2007 first quarter due primarily to lower miscellaneous income offset, in part, by higher payments from Teva pursuant to our settlement agreement allowing Teva to sell generic versions of EFFEXOR. Pre-tax gains primarily from the divestiture of certain Pharmaceuticals products were approximately $16.3 million for the 2007 first quarter compared with $17.6 million for the 2006 first quarter.

  (1) Income (loss) before income taxes for the 2007 and 2006 first quarters included gains from product divestitures of approximately $16.3 and $17.6, respectively, and pertained primarily to the Pharmaceuticals segment.

 

  (2) Corporate included a net charge of $42.6 for the 2007 first quarter and $35.1 for the 2006 first quarter related to the Company’s productivity initiatives. For the 2007 first quarter, the activities related to the reportable segments as follows: Pharmaceuticals – $37.3, Consumer Healthcare – $4.3 and Animal Health – $1.0. For the 2006 first quarter, productivity initiatives activities related solely to the Pharmaceuticals business.

Worldwide Pharmaceuticals income before income taxes for the 2007 first quarter increased 17% due primarily to higher net revenue and lower selling and general expenses, as a percentage of net revenue, offset by slightly lower gross margins earned on worldwide sales of Pharmaceuticals products and higher research and development expenses.

Worldwide Consumer Healthcare income before income taxes increased 74% for the 2007 first quarter due primarily to higher net revenue, higher gross profit margins earned on worldwide sales of Consumer Healthcare products, and lower selling and general expenses, as a percentage of net revenue. The 2006 first quarter net revenue was negatively impacted by retailer actions and federal and state legislation related to pseudoephedrine-containing products. Research and development expenses also were lower between periods.

Worldwide Animal Health income before income taxes for the 2007 first quarter increased approximately 17% due primarily to higher net revenue and lower selling and general expenses, as a percentage of net revenue, and lower research and development expenses. Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net revenue, was comparable between the 2007 and 2006 first quarters.

Corporate expenses, net for the 2007 first quarter increased to $50.8 million from $43.3 million for the 2006 first quarter as a result of higher productivity initiatives charges and lower other income, net offset, in part, by higher interest income, net.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 28.1% for the 2007 first quarter compared with 23.3% for the 2006 first quarter. Excluding certain items affecting comparability (as discussed below under “Consolidated Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share Results”), the effective tax rate increased to 28.2% for the 2007 first quarter compared with 23.5% for the prior year. These increases reflected the impact of higher sales of certain Pharmaceuticals products (i.e., ENBREL and PREVNAR) that are manufactured in less favorable tax jurisdictions and increased expenditures on research and development in non-U.S. locations.

Consolidated Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share Results

Net income and diluted earnings per share for the 2007 first quarter were $1,254.1 million and $0.92, respectively, compared with net income and diluted earnings per share of $1,119.6 million and $0.82, respectively, in the 2006 first quarter, both increasing 12%, respectively.

Our management uses various measures to manage and evaluate our performance and believes it is appropriate to specifically identify certain significant items included in net income and diluted earnings per share to assist investors with analyzing ongoing business performance and trends. In particular, our management believes that comparisons between 2007 and 2006 first quarter results of operations are impacted by the following items that are included in net income and diluted earnings per share:

 

  ·  

2007 first quarter net charges of $42.6 million ($29.5 million after-tax or $0.02 per share-diluted) related to our productivity initiatives.

  ·  

2006 first quarter net charges of $35.1 million ($24.2 million after-tax or $0.02 per share-diluted) related to our productivity initiatives.

The productivity initiatives charges, which include costs associated with the Global Business Operations initiative, the costs of closing certain manufacturing facilities, certain reorganization expenses and the elimination of certain positions at our facilities have been identified as significant items by our management as these charges are not considered to be indicative of continuing operating results.

Excluding the 2007 first quarter productivity initiatives charges, the increases in net income and diluted earnings per share for the 2007 first quarter were due primarily to higher net revenue and lower cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses, both as a percentage of net revenue, and higher interest income offset, in part, by higher research and development spending as well as the impact of a higher effective tax rate compared with the 2006 first quarter.

Liquidity, Financial Condition and Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash and cash equivalents increased $1,800.6 million during the 2007 first quarter. Sources of cash flows during the 2007 first quarter related primarily to the following items:

 

  ·  

Proceeds of $2,500.0 million related to the issuance of long-term debt;

  ·  

Proceeds of $333.7 million related to the sales and maturities of marketable securities;

  ·  

Proceeds of $94.6 million related to the exercise of stock options; and

  ·  

Proceeds of $20.6 million related to sales of assets.

These sources of cash were partially offset by the following items:

 

  ·  

Payments of $1,171.1 million related to purchases of marketable securities;

  ·  

Purchases of common stock for treasury totaling $527.8 million;

  ·  

Capital expenditures totaling $210.3 million; and

  ·  

Payments of $78.5 million related to our diet drug litigation.

The change in working capital, which used $332.4 million of cash as of March 31, 2007, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, is primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses resulting from payments made in connection with our performance incentive award program as well as interest payments made on long-term debt. In addition, inventory levels increased to support higher sales demands. The decrease is partially offset by an increase in accrued taxes.

Total Debt

At March 31, 2007, we had outstanding $11,738.2 million in total debt, which consisted of notes payable and other debt. Maturities of our obligations as of March 31, 2007 are set forth below.

We file tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Our tax returns for years prior to 1998 generally are no longer subject to review as such years generally are closed. Taxing authorities in various jurisdictions are in the process of reviewing our tax returns for various post-1997 years, including the IRS, which currently is examining the 1998 through 2001 tax returns. It is reasonably possible that this audit will conclude in the next 12 months. We will likely make a payment in the range of $120.0 million to $130.0 million for adjustments that have been currently agreed upon with the IRS; however, it is not possible to estimate the impact of any other adjustments that may result from the audit on our liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As part of this audit, the IRS is examining the pricing of our cross-border arrangements. While we believe that the pricing of these arrangements is appropriate and that our reserves are adequate with respect to such pricing, it is possible that the IRS will propose adjustments in excess of such reserves and that the conclusion of the audit will result in adjustments in excess of such reserves. An unfavorable resolution for open tax years could have a material effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the period in which an adjustment is recorded and in future periods. We believe that an unfavorable resolution for open tax years would not be material to the financial position; however, each year we record significant tax benefits with respect to our cross-border arrangements, and the possibility of a resolution that is material to our financial position cannot be excluded.

As more fully described in Note 8 to the consolidated condensed financial statements and in prior filings, we are involved in various legal proceedings. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves and our products in these litigations and believe our legal positions are strong. However, in light of the circumstances discussed therein, it is not possible to determine the ultimate outcome of our legal proceedings, and therefore, it is possible that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings could be material to our financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The market risk disclosures appearing on page 62 of our 2006 Financial Report as incorporated by reference in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K have not materially changed from December 31, 2006. At March 31, 2007, the fair values of our financial instruments were as follows:

Description

   Assets (Liabilities)

Value

    Fair
Value
 
       

Forward contracts(1)

Option contracts(1)

Interest rate swaps

Outstanding debt(2)

   11,760.2    11,738.2     12,038.5  

 

  (1) If the U.S. dollar were to strengthen or weaken by 10%, in relation to all hedged foreign currencies, the net payable on the forward contracts and option contracts would collectively decrease or increase by approximately $121.7.

 

  (2) If the interest rates were to increase or decrease by one percentage point, the fair value of the outstanding debt would decrease or increase by approximately $885.5.

The estimated fair values approximate amounts at which these financial instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. Therefore, fair values are based on estimates using present value and other valuation techniques that are significantly affected by the assumptions used concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates that reflect varying degrees of risk. The fair value of forward contracts, currency option contracts and interest rate swaps reflects the present value of the contracts at March 31, 2007 and the fair value of outstanding debt instruments reflects a current yield valuation based on observed market prices as of March 31, 2007.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2007, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the 2007 first quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, as part of our productivity initiatives, in the 2007 first quarter, we outsourced certain administrative support functions to Accenture LLC (Accenture) pursuant to the master services agreement that we entered into in July 2006. As part of these productivity initiatives, we expect to make additional system changes in future quarters that may be significant, including the transition of certain additional functions to Accenture and the expanded use of SAP as the primary Enterprise Resource Planning system, replacing standalone JD Edwards applications, at most of our major locations over the next several years.

WYETH

 

2005 AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

 

(Including amendments through January 25, 2007)

 

Section 1. Purpose. The purpose of the 2005 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide favorable opportunities for officers and other key employees (“Participants”) of Wyeth (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries to acquire shares of Common Stock of the Company and to benefit from the appreciation thereof. Such opportunities should provide an increased incentive for Participants to contribute to the future success and prosperity of the Company, thus enhancing the value of the stock for the benefit of the stockholders, and increase the ability of the Company to attract and retain individuals of exceptional skill upon whom, in large measure, its sustained progress, growth and profitability depend. It is the further purpose of this Plan to permit the granting of awards that will constitute performance-based compensation for certain executive officers, as described in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (“162(m) Awards”).

 

Pursuant to the Plan, options to purchase the Company’s Common Stock (“Options”) and Restricted Stock (as defined in Section 6) may be granted to Participants by the Company. Options granted under the Plan may be either incentive stock options, as defined in Section 422(b) of the Code herein referred to as “incentive stock options,” or options which do not meet the requirements of Section 422(b) of the Code, herein referred to as “non-qualified stock options.”

 

It is intended, except as otherwise provided herein, that incentive stock options may be granted under the Plan and that such incentive stock options shall conform to the requirements of Section 422 and 424 of the Code and to the provisions of this Plan and shall otherwise be as determined by the Committee (as hereinafter defined). The terms “subsidiaries” and “subsidiary corporation” shall have the meanings given to them by Section 424 of the Code. All section references to the Code in this Plan are intended to include any amendments or substitutions therefor subsequent to the adoption of the Plan.

 

Section 2. Administration. The Plan shall be administered by a Compensation and Benefits Committee (the “Committee”) consisting of two or more members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), each of whom shall meet the requirements for (i) a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (ii) an “outside director” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and (iii) an “independent director” under the New York Stock Exchange listing rules and any other required independence standards. The Committee shall have full authority to grant Options and Restricted Stock, to interpret the Plan and to make such rules and regulations and establish such procedures as it deems appropriate for the administration of the Plan, taking into consideration the recommendations of management. The decisions of the Committee shall be binding and conclusive for all purposes and upon all persons unless and except to the extent that the Board shall have previously directed that all or specified types of

 

1


decisions of the Committee shall be subject to approval by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything else in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may delegate the Committee’s authority and duties under the Plan to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, or to any other committee, in either case to the extent permitted under applicable law, under such conditions and limitations as the Board or the Committee may from time to time establish, except that only the Committee may make any determinations regarding awards to Participants who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of the Code or which by law may not be delegated.

 

Section 3. Number of Shares. The total number of shares which may be sold or awarded under the Plan shall not exceed 45 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, of which up to 6 million may be granted as Restricted Stock. The total number of shares for which Options may be granted under the Plan to any Participant during any one fiscal year of the Company shall not exceed 4.5 million. The total number of shares for which Restricted Stock awards that are intended to be 162(m) Awards may be granted under the Plan to any Participant during any one fiscal year of the Company shall not exceed 600,000, and the maximum number of shares that could be issued in respect of a 162(m) Award shall be two times that limit. The shares may be authorized and unissued or issued and reacquired shares, as the Board from time to time may determine. Shares with respect to which Options are not exercised prior to termination of the Option, or that are part of a Restricted Stock award that is forfeited before the restrictions lapse, shall again be available for Options and Restricted Stock thereafter granted under the Plan, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

Section 4. Participation. The Committee may, from time to time, grant Options and Restricted Stock to Participants and shall determine the number of shares subject to each grant.

 

Section 5. Terms and Conditions of Options. The terms and conditions of each Option shall be set forth in an agreement or agreements between the Company and the Participant. Such terms and conditions shall include the following as well as such other provisions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as may be deemed advisable by the Committee:

 

(a) Number of Shares. The number of shares subject to the Option.

 

(b) Option Price. The option price per share (the “Option Price”), shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock on the date the Option is granted. Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of any date, shall be deemed to be the closing price of the Common Stock on the Consolidated Transaction Reporting System on such date or if such date is not a trading day, on the most recent trading day prior to such date. Once granted, except as provided in Section 7, the Option Price of outstanding Options may not be reduced, whether by repricing exchange or otherwise.

 

(c) Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option shall be the date when the Committee meets and awards such Option, or such later date as the Committee shall designate.

 

2


(d) Payment. The Option Price multiplied by the number of shares to be purchased by exercise of an Option shall be paid upon the exercise thereof. Unless the terms of an Option provide to the contrary, upon exercise, the aggregate Option Price shall be payable (i) in cash equal to such aggregate Option Price, (ii) in shares of the Company’s Common Stock owned by the Participant (which, for so long as necessary to avoid adverse accounting treatment, must have been held by the Participant at least six months) having a Fair Market Value on the day immediately preceding the date of exercise at least equal to such aggregate Option Price, (iii) a combination of the above methods, or (iv) by any other means approved by the Committee, including under any approved cashless exercise mechanism. Payment of the aggregate Option Price shall be made and received by the Company prior to the delivery of the shares as to which the Option was exercised. The right to deliver, in full or partial payment of the Option Price, any consideration other than cash shall be limited to such frequency as the Committee shall determine in its absolute discretion. A Participant shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to an Option until the shares of Common Stock underlying such Option are issued to him or her. In order to be validly exercised, the aggregate Option Price and all necessary exercise documentation must be submitted to the Company or its designated agent not later than the close of trading on the date of expiration of the Option or, if such date is not a trading day, the close of trading on the last trading day prior to the date of expiration of the Option.

 

(e) Term of Options. Each Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be for the term specified in the applicable option agreement (the “Option Agreement”).

 

(f) Exercise of Option. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Option Agreement, (i) no Option granted under the Plan may be exercisable earlier than the later of (A) one year from the date of grant or (B) the date on which the Participant completes two years of continuous employment with the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries, and (ii) in the event of a Participant’s death, Retirement (as defined below) or Disability (as defined below), any Options held by such Participant shall become exercisable on his or her Retirement date, the date his or her employment terminates on account of Disability or the date of his or her death provided he or she has been in the continuous employment of the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries for at least two years at such time. No Option may be exercised after it is terminated as provided in paragraph (g) of this Section, and no Option may be exercised unless the Participant is then employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and shall have been continuously employed by the Company or one or more of such subsidiaries since the date of the grant of his or her Option, except (x) as provided in paragraph (g) of this Section, and (y) in the case of the Participant’s Retirement or Disability (in which case the Participant may exercise the Option to the extent he or she was entitled to exercise it at the time of such termination or such shorter period as may be provided in the Option Agreement) or death (in which case the Option may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or legatee or such other person designated by an appropriate court as the person entitled to exercise such Option to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise it at the time of his or her death). As used herein, “Retirement” shall mean termination of the Participant’s full-time employment on or after the earliest retirement age under any qualified retirement plan of the Company or its subsidiaries which covers

 

3


the Participant, or age 55 with 5 continuous years of such employment if there is no such plan, and “Disability” shall mean termination of the Participant’s full-time employment for reason of disability for purposes of at least one qualified retirement plan or long term disability plan maintained by the Company or its subsidiaries in which the Participant participates. Non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options may be exercised regardless of whether other Options granted to the Participant pursuant to the Plan are outstanding or whether other stock options granted to the Participant pursuant to any other plan are outstanding.

 

(g) Termination of Options. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Option Agreement, an Option, to the extent not validly exercised, shall terminate at the end of its stated term or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of the first of the following events:

 

(i) Three months after termination by the Company or one of its subsidiaries of the Participant’s employment for any reason other than in the case of death, Retirement, Disability, or deliberate gross misconduct determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, during which three month period the Option may be exercised by the Participant to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise it at the time of such termination;

 

(ii) Concurrently with the time of termination by the Company or one of its subsidiaries of the Participant’s employment for deliberate gross misconduct determined in the sole discretion of the Committee (for purposes only of this subparagraph (ii) an Option shall be deemed to be exercised when the Participant has received the stock certificate (or valid instructions in the case of delivery of uncertificated shares) representing the shares for which the Option was exercised); or

 

(iii) Concurrently with the time of a Participant’s voluntary termination of his or her employment with the Company or one of its subsidiaries for reasons other than Retirement or Disability.

 

Notwithstanding the above, no Option shall be exercisable after termination of employment unless the Participant shall have, for the entire time period during which his or her Options were exercisable, (a) refrained from becoming or serving as an officer, director, partner or employee of any individual proprietorship, partnership or corporation, or the owner of a business, or a member of a partnership which conducts a business in competition with the Company or renders a service (including without limitation, advertising agencies and business consultants) to competitors with any portion of the business of the Company, (b) made himself or herself available, if so requested by the Company, at reasonable times and upon a reasonable basis to consult with, supply information to, and otherwise cooperate with, the Company and (c) refrained from engaging in deliberate action which, as determined by the Committee, causes substantial harm to the interests of the Company or, if occurring before termination of employment, would have otherwise constituted deliberate gross misconduct for purposes of Section

 

4


5(g)(ii). If these conditions are not fulfilled, the Participant shall forfeit all rights to any unexercised Option as of the date of the breach of the condition.

 

(h) Non-transferability of Options. Options shall not be transferable by the Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and Options shall during his or her lifetime be exercisable only by the Participant; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow for transfer of Options (other than incentive stock options, unless such transferability would not adversely affect incentive stock option tax treatment) but only for estate planning purposes.

 

(i) Applicable Laws or Regulations. The Company’s obligation to sell and deliver stock under the Option is subject to such compliance as the Company deems necessary or advisable with federal and state laws, rules and regulations.

 

(j) Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Company’s Common Stock, determined at the time of grant, with respect to which incentive stock options granted under this or any other Plan of the Company are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, or such other amount as may be permitted under the Code, such excess shall be considered non-qualified stock options.

 

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, any incentive stock option granted to any Participant who, at the time of grant, is the owner, directly or indirectly, of stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any subsidiary thereof, shall (i) have a term not exceeding five years from the date of grant and (ii) shall have an Option Price of not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Company’s Common Stock on the date the incentive stock option is granted.

 

Section 6. Restricted Stock Awards. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, from time to time, make awards of shares of the Company’s Common Stock or awards of units representing shares of the Company’s Common Stock, to Participants in such quantity, and on such terms, conditions and restrictions (whether based on performance standards, periods of service or otherwise) as the Committee shall establish (“Restricted Stock”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, any award of Restricted Stock that is intended to be a 162(m) Award shall be subject to restrictions based on performance standards related to earnings, adjusted earnings or net income per share of Common Stock of the Company, price per share of Common Stock of the Company, return on equity or total shareholder return of the Company’s Common Stock, pre-tax profits, return on assets or invested capital, sales, operating income, cash flow measures, operating or profit margins, working capital measures, market share, income before taxes, net income, adjusted net income, revenue, cost reductions or any combination of the foregoing. Such performance goals may be based on the achievement of specified levels of Company performance or performance of one or more divisions of the Company or performance relative to the performance of other corporations. The terms, conditions and restrictions of any Restricted Stock award, including 162(m) Awards, made under this Plan shall be set forth in an agreement or agreements between the Company and the Participant. The Committee retains the right to increase or decrease the amount of a Restricted Stock Award based on the degree to which any

 

5


performance goals are attained; provided, however, that with respect to a 162(m) Award, the Committee may not increase the amount of such award, but may reduce the amount of such award below the maximum amount that could be paid in its discretion.

 

(a) Issuance of Restricted Stock. The Committee shall determine the manner in which Restricted Stock shall be held during the period it is subject to restrictions.

 

(b) Stockholder Rights. Beginning on the date of grant of the Restricted Stock award and subject to the execution of the applicable award agreement by a Participant and subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions of the applicable award agreement, the Committee shall determine to what extent the Participant has the rights of a stockholder of the Company including, but not limited to, whether the Participant has the right to vote the shares or to receive dividends or dividend equivalents.

 

(c) Restriction on Transferability. No Restricted Stock award may be assigned or transferred, pledged or sold prior to their delivery to a Participant or, in the case of a Participant’s death, to the Participant’s legal representative or legatee or such other person designated by an appropriate court; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow for transfer of a Restricted Stock award but only for estate planning purposes.

 

(d) Delivery of Shares. Upon the satisfaction of the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in the Restricted Stock award agreements or as otherwise determined by the Committee, the Company shall deliver, as soon as practicable, to the Participant (or permitted transferee), or in the case of his or her death to his or her legal representative or legatee or such other person designated by an appropriate court, a stock certificate (or proper crediting in uncertificated shares) for the appropriate number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, free of all such restrictions, except for any restrictions that may be imposed by law.

 

(e) Forfeiture of Restricted Stock. Subject to Section 6(f), all of the shares or units with respect to a Restricted Stock award shall be forfeited and all rights of the Participant with respect to such shares or units shall terminate unless the Participant continues to be employed by the Company or its subsidiaries until the expiration of the forfeiture period and the satisfaction of any other conditions set forth in the applicable award agreement.

 

(f) Waiver of Forfeiture Period. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive the forfeiture period and any other conditions set forth in any award agreement under certain circumstances (including the death, Disability or Retirement of the Participant or a material change in circumstances arising after the date of an award) and subject to such terms and conditions (including forfeiture of a proportionate number of the restricted shares) as the Committee shall deem appropriate; provided, however, that discretion to waive the forfeiture period shall not apply to any 162(m) Awards. With respect to 162(m) Awards, the Committee shall have the right to provide in the applicable award agreement that the Restricted Stock shall be paid in the event of death, Disability or Retirement of the Participant if the Committee

 

6


certifies that the applicable performance criteria have been satisfied, provided that in no event shall such 162(m) Award be paid prior to the date such 162(m) Award would have been paid had the Participant remained employed by the Company.

 

Section 7. Adjustment in Event of Change in Stock. Subject to Section 8, in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, cash dividend (other than a regular cash dividend), combination of shares, merger, or other relevant change in the Company’s capitalization, the Committee shall, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, appropriately adjust the number and kind of shares available for issuance under the Plan (including the number of shares that may be granted as Restricted Stock), the maximum number of shares for which Restricted Stock that are intended to be 162(m) Awards and Options may be granted to any Participant during any one fiscal year of the Company, the number, kind and Option Price of shares subject to outstanding Options and the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Restricted Stock awards; provided, however, that to the extent permitted in the case of incentive stock options by Sections 422 and 424 of the Code, in the event that the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are increased or decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of another corporation, through reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split-up, combination of shares or dividend, appropriate adjustment in the number and kind of shares as to which Options may be granted and as to which Options or portions thereof then unexercised shall be exercisable, and in the Option Price thereof, shall be made to the end that the proportionate number of shares or other securities as to which Options may be granted and the Participant’s proportionate interests under outstanding Options shall be maintained as before the occurrence of such event; provided, that any such adjustment in (i) shares subject to outstanding Options (including any adjustments in the Option Price) shall be made in such manner as not to constitute a modification as defined by subsection (h)(3) of Section 424 of the Code; and provided, further, that, in the event of an adjustment in the number or kind of shares under a Restricted Stock award pursuant to this Section 7, any new shares or units issued to the Participant in respect thereof shall be subject to the same terms, conditions and restrictions as the underlying Restricted Stock award for which the adjustment was made; provided, that any adjustments made to a Restricted Stock award that is intended to be a 162(m) Award shall be made in such a manner that the requirements of the exception to Code Section 162(m) continue to be satisfied.

 

Section 8. Effect of a Change of Control.

 

(a) For purposes of this Section 8, “Change of Control” shall, unless the Board of Directors of the Company otherwise directs by resolution adopted prior thereto or, in the case of a particular award, the applicable award agreement states otherwise, be deemed to occur if (i) any “person” (as that term is used in Sections 13 and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) other than a Permitted Holder (as defined below) is or becomes the beneficial owner (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of either the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally, (ii) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who constitute the Board of Directors of the Company at the beginning of such period cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, unless the election or the nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders of each new director was approved by a

 

 

7


vote of at least three-quarters of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of the period or (iii) the Company undergoes a liquidation or dissolution or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. No merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization in which the owners of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally prior to said combination, own 50% or more of the resulting entity’s outstanding voting securities shall, by itself, be considered a Change in Control. As used herein, “Permitted Holder” means (i) the Company, (ii) any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity controlled by the Company and (iii) any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any such controlled entity.

 

(b) Except to the extent reflected in a particular Option Agreement or award agreement, in the event of a Change of Control:

 

(i) notwithstanding any vesting schedule, or any other limitation on exercise or vesting, all outstanding Options shall immediately become 100% vested and exercisable, and the restrictions shall expire immediately with respect to 100% of all outstanding Restricted Stock awards; and

 

(ii) the Committee may, in its discretion and upon at least 10 days advance notice to the affected persons, cancel any outstanding Options or Restricted Stock awards and pay to the holders thereof, in cash, the value of such awards based upon the highest price per share of Company Common Stock received or to be received by other stockholders of the Company in connection with the Change of Control.

 

(c) Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 8 shall be administered in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code.

 

Section 9. Amendment and Discontinuance. The Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time amend or revise the terms of the Plan, or may discontinue the Plan at any time as permitted by law, provided, however, that such amendment shall not (except as provided in Section 7), without further approval of the stockholders, (i) increase the aggregate number of shares with respect to which awards may be made under the Plan; (ii) change the manner of determining the Option Price (other than determining the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock to conform with applicable provisions of the Code or regulations and interpretations thereunder); (iii) extend the term of the Plan or the maximum period during which any Option may be exercised or (iv) make any other change which, in the absence of stockholder approval, would be prohibited by the listing requirements of the national stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed and traded, or would cause awards granted under the Plan which are then outstanding, or which may be granted in the future, and which are intended to be Section 162(m) Awards, to fail to meet the exemptions provided by Section 162(m) of the Code. No amendments, revision or discontinuance of the Plan shall, without the consent of a Participant, in any manner adversely affect his or her rights under any Awards theretofore granted under the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee shall have the right to unilaterally amend, revise or discontinue the Plan, and any provision of the Plan and the Committee shall have the right to unilaterally amend, revise or discontinue any Option Agreement or award agreement, any provision of an Option Agreement

 

8


or award agreement and any Participant elections under an Option Agreement or award agreement, in each case, without the consent of any Participant, where such amendment, revision or discontinuance is necessary or desirable to comply with applicable law or to ensure that, with respect to any Option, Restricted Stock award, or the cash or shares of common stock into which they are converted, the Participant is not subject to adverse or unintended tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that, with respect to any Option, nothing in the Plan shall require any amendment or revision to the definition of Change in Control. The discontinuance of the Plan shall not result in the acceleration of issuance of shares of Wyeth common stock, to the extent that such shares constitute a deferral of compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, unless (i) all arrangements sponsored by the Company that would be aggregated with the Plan under Section 409A if the same Participant participated in all such arrangements are termination, (ii) no payments, other than payments that would be payable under the terms of such arrangements if the termination had not occurred, are made within 12 months of the termination of such arrangements, (iii) all payments are made within 24 months of the termination of the arrangements and (iv) the Company does not adopt a new arrangement that would be aggregated with the Plan under Section 409A if the same Participant participated in both arrangements, at any time within the five years following the date of Plan termination. All determinations and actions made by the Board of Directors or the Committee pursuant to this Section shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons.

 

Section 10. Effective Date and Duration. The Plan was originally adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on March 3, 2005, subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company at a meeting held in April 2005. The Plan was approved at the April 2005 annual meeting. The Plan was amended and restated on January 25, 2007, subject to the approval of the stockholders of the Company at a meeting to be held on April 26, 2007. No award of Restricted Stock that is intended to be a 162(m) Award shall become binding until the Plan (as amended and restated) is approved by a vote of the stockholders in a manner which complies with Section 162(m) of the Code at a meeting to be held on April 26, 2007. In the event that the Plan (as amended and restated) is not approved by the stockholders, the terms of the Plan as in effect prior to the amendment and restatement shall remain in full force and effect. No Option may be granted and no stock may be awarded under the Plan before March 3, 2005 nor after March 3, 2015.

Section 11. Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company or its subsidiaries, as appropriate, shall have the right to deduct from all awards under the Plan cash and/or stock, valued at Fair Market Value on the date of payment, an amount necessary to satisfy all federal, state or local taxes as required by law to be withheld with respect to such awards. In the case of awards paid in the Company’s Common Stock, the Participant or permitted transferee may be required to pay to the Company or a subsidiary thereof, as appropriate, the amount of any such taxes which the Company or subsidiary is required to withhold, if any, with respect to such stock. Subject in particular cases to the disapproval of the Committee, the Company may accept shares of the Company’s Common Stock of equivalent fair market value in payment of such withholding tax obligations if the Participant elects to make payment in such manner.

 

Section 12. Construction and Conditions. The Plan and Options and Restricted Stock granted thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and in accordance with such federal law as may be applicable.

 

Neither the existence of the Plan nor the grant of any Options or Restricted Stock pursuant to the Plan shall create in any Participant the right to continue to be employed by the Company or its subsidiaries. Employment shall be “at will” and shall be terminable “at will” by the Company or the Participant with or without cause. Any oral statements or promises to the contrary are not binding upon the Company or the Participant.

 

Section 13. Section 409A. To the extent that any payments or benefits provided hereunder are considered deferred compensation subject to 409A, the Company intends for the Plan to comply with the standards for nonqualified deferred compensation established by Section 409A (the “409A Standards”). To the extent that any terms of the Plan would subject Participants to gross income inclusion, interest or an additional tax pursuant to Section 409A, those terms are to that extent superseded by the 409A Standards.
