GCS-1 GENZYME CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA We have four series of common stock--Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock--which we refer to as "tracking stock." Unlike typical common stock, each of our tracking stocks is designed to track the financial performance of a specified subset of our business operations and its allocated assets, rather than operations and assets of our entire company. Each tracking stock is a common stock of Genzyme Corporation, not of a division; each division is not a company or legal entity, and therefore does not and cannot issue stock. The chief mechanisms intended to cause each tracking stock to "track" the financial performance of each division are provisions in our charter governing dividends and distributions. Under these provisions, our charter: - factors the assets and liabilities and income or losses attributable to a division into the determination of the amount available to pay dividends on the associated tracking stock; and - requires us to exchange, redeem or distribute a dividend to the holders of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock, or Tissue Repair Stock if all or substantially all of the assets allocated to those corresponding divisions are sold to a third party. To determine earnings per share, we allocate Genzyme's earnings to each series of our common stock based on the earnings attributable to that series of stock. The earnings attributable to each series of stock is defined in our charter as the net income or loss of the corresponding division determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as adjusted for tax benefits allocated to or from the division in accordance with our management and accounting policies. Our charter also requires that all income and expenses of Genzyme be allocated among the divisions in a reasonable and consistent manner. Our board of directors, however, retains considerable discretion in determining the types, magnitudes and extent of allocations to each series of common stock without shareholder approval. Because the earnings allocated to each series of stock are based on the income or losses attributable to each corresponding division, we include financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of Genzyme Corporation and of each division to aid investors in evaluating Genzyme's performance and the performance of each of its divisions. Income (loss) allocated to Genzyme General Stock and Surgical Products Stock, and earnings per share of Genzyme General Stock, have been revised for all periods presented as described in Note A. to our consolidated financial statements under the caption "Net Income (Loss) Per Share--Revision."

GCS-4 GENZYME CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (CONTINUED) There were no cash dividends paid. ------------------------ (1) Cost of products sold for 1997 includes an $18.1 million charge in connection with the discontinuance of our melatonin, bulk pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals product lines. Cost of products sold for 1998 includes a $14.8 million charge to write-down excess Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme inventory and a $10.4 million charge to write-down our Sepra products inventory to net realizable value. (2) Charges for in-process research and development were incurred in connection with the following acquisitions: - 1995--$14.2 million from the acquisition of a minority interest in IG Laboratories, Inc. - 1996--$106.4 million from the acquisition of Neozyme II Corporation and $24.2 million from the acquisition of Deknatel Snowden Pencer, Inc. - 1997--$7.0 million from the acquisition of PharmaGenics, Inc. - 1999--$5.4 million from the acquisition of Peptimmune, Inc. (3) Gain on affiliate sale of stock in 1999 represents the gain on our investment in Genzyme Transgenics Corporation ("GTC") as a result of GTC's various issuances of additional shares of its stock. (4) Gain on sale of product line of $31.2 million in 1998 relates to the sale of our research products business assets to Techne Corporation in July 1998. Gain on sale of product line in 1999 consists of $7.5 million, representing the payment of a note receivable that we received as partial consideration for the sale of Genetic Design, Inc. to Laboratory Corporation of America in 1996. (5) Other income in 1999 includes the receipt of a $14.4 million payment associated with the termination of our agreement to acquire Cell Genesys, Inc., net of acquisition related expenses. (6) Until the distribution of Surgical Products Stock on June 28, 1999, Genzyme Surgical Products' losses were included in the determination of income allocated to Genzyme General Stock. Further, until the distribution of Molecular Oncology Stock on June 18, 1997, Genzyme Molecular Oncology's losses were included in the determination of income allocated to Genzyme General Stock. If the shares of Surgical Products Stock initially issued on June 28, 1999 were assumed to be outstanding since January 1, 1995, net income allocated to Genzyme General Stock and weighted average shares outstanding would have been as follows:

(7) To determine earnings per share, we allocate Genzyme's earnings to each series of our common stock based on the earnings attributable to that series of stock. The earnings attributable to Genzyme General Stock is defined in our charter as the net income or loss of Genzyme General determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as adjusted for tax benefits allocated to or from Genzyme General in accordance with our management and accounting policies. Earnings attributable to Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock are defined similarly and, as such, are based on the net income or loss of the corresponding division. GCS-5 GENZYME CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (CONTINUED) (8) We created Genzyme Molecular Oncology on June 18, 1997. Prior to this date, the operations of Genzyme Molecular Oncology were included in the results of Genzyme General. Net loss per share of Molecular Oncology Stock for 1997 is calculated using the net loss allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology for the period June 18, 1997 through December 31, 1997 and the weighted average shares outstanding during the same period. Loss per share data is not presented for Genzyme Molecular Oncology for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, or for the period from January 1, 1997 to June 17, 1997, as there were no shares of Molecular Oncology Stock outstanding. (9) We created Genzyme Surgical Products on June 28, 1999. Prior to this date, the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products were included in the operations allocated to Genzyme General and, therefore, in the net income allocated to Genzyme General Stock. Net loss per share of Surgical Products Stock for 1999 is calculated using the net loss allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products for the period June 28, 1999 through December 31, 1999 and the weighted average shares outstanding during the same period. Loss per share data is not presented for Genzyme Surgical Products for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998, as there were no shares of Surgical Products Stock outstanding. If the shares of Surgical Products Stock initially issued on June 28, 1999 were assumed to be outstanding since January 1, 1995, net loss allocated to Surgical Products Stock and weighted average shares outstanding would have been as follows:
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, ---------------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) Net loss allocated to Surgical Products Stock...................................... $(48,037) $(49,856) $(29,740) $(44,313) $(9,273) Weighted average shares outstanding--basic and diluted................................ 14,800 14,800 14,800 14,800 14,800
(10) The allocation of Genzyme's historical earnings has been revised to reflect an allocation of Genzyme's earnings to each series of common stock actually outstanding in periods prior to June 1999 and to each series of common stock, including Surgical Products Stock, thereafter. See Note A. to the consolidated financial statements. (11) Long-term debt and convertible debt consists primarily of $218.0 million and $118.0 million outstanding under a revolving credit facility in 1996 and 1997, respectively. Long-term debt and convertible debt in 1998 and 1999 consists primarily of $250.0 million in principal of 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes due June 2005. GCS-6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES' FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION This discussion contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements represent the expectations of our management as of the filing date of this annual report. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements due to the risks and uncertainties described under the caption "Factors Affecting Future Operating Results" below. You should consider carefully each of these risks and uncertainties in evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. We are a biotechnology company that develops innovative products and services for significant unmet medical needs. We have four operating divisions: - Genzyme General, which develops and markets: - therapeutic products, with an expanding focus on products to treat patients suffering from lysosomal storage disorders and other specialty therapeutics; - diagnostic products, with a focus on IN VITRO diagnostics; and - other products and services, such as genetic testing services and lipids and peptides for drug delivery. - Genzyme Molecular Oncology, which is developing cancer products, with a focus on therapeutic vaccines and angiogenesis inhibitors; - Genzyme Surgical Products, which develops, manufactures and markets surgical products for cardiovascular surgery and general surgery; and - Genzyme Tissue Repair, which develops and markets biological products for orthopedic injuries, such as cartilage damage, and severe burns. In June 1997, we formed Genzyme Molecular Oncology by acquiring PharmaGenics, Inc. and combining it with several of our ongoing programs in the field of oncology. In June 1999, we established Genzyme Surgical Products. The business of Genzyme Surgical Products previously operated as a business unit of Genzyme General. The discussion that follows reflects the results of operations as if Genzyme Surgical Products had existed as a separate division of Genzyme for all periods presented. The greater segregation of assets, liabilities and earnings (losses) resulting from the creation of Genzyme Molecular Oncology and Genzyme Surgical Products is a trend that we do not expect to continue. As discussed below, Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair will be combined into Genzyme Biosurgery upon the completion of the Biomatrix acquisition, reducing the segregation of assets among our divisions and reducing the series of common stock outstanding. As market or competitive conditions warrant, we may create new series of tracking stock or change our earnings allocation methodology. However, at the present time, we have no plans to do so. We prepare the financial statements of Genzyme in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We present financial information and accounting policies specific to Genzyme in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Note A., "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our accompanying consolidated financial statements contains our accounting policies. We have four series of common stock--Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock--which we refer to as "tracking stock." Unlike typical common stock, each of our tracking stocks is designed to track the financial performance of a specific subset of our GCS-7 business operations and its allocated assets, rather than operations and assets of our entire company. The chief mechanisms intended to cause each tracking stock to "track" the financial performance of each division are provisions in our charter governing dividends and distributions. Under these provisions, our charter: - factors the assets and liabilities and income or losses attributable to a division into the determination of the amount available to pay dividends on the associated tracking stock; and - requires us to exchange, redeem or distribute a dividend to the holders of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock, or Tissue Repair Stock if all or substantially all of the assets allocated to those corresponding divisions are sold to a third party (a dividend or redemption payment must equal in value the net after-tax proceeds from the sale; an exchange must be for Genzyme General Stock at a 10% premium to the exchanged stock's average market price following the announcement of the sale. To determine earnings per share, we allocate Genzyme's earnings to each series of our common stock based on the earnings attributable to that series of stock. The earnings attributable to each series of stock is defined in our charter as the net income or loss of the corresponding division determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as adjusted for tax benefits allocated to or from the division in accordance with our management and accounting policies. Our charter also requires that all income and expenses of Genzyme be allocated among the divisions in a reasonable and consistent manner. However, subject to fiduciary duties, our board of directors can, at its discretion, change the methods of allocating earnings to each series of common stock. We intend to allocate earnings using our current methods for the foreseeable future. See "Earnings Allocations" below. Because the earnings allocated to each series of stock are based on the income or losses attributable to each corresponding division, we include financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of Genzyme Corporation and of each division to aid investors in evaluating Genzyme's performance and the performance of each of its divisions. While each tracking stock is designed to reflect a division's performance, it is common stock of Genzyme Corporation and not of a division; each division is not a company or legal entity, and therefore does not and cannot issue stock. Consequently, holders of a series of tracking stock have no specific rights to assets allocated to the corresponding division. Genzyme Corporation continues to hold title to all of the assets allocated to each division and is responsible for all of its liabilities, regardless of what we deem for financial statement presentation purposes as allocated to any division. Holders of each tracking stock, as common stockholders, are therefore subject to the risks of investing in the businesses, assets and liabilities of Genzyme as a whole. For instance, the assets allocated to each division are subject to company-wide claims of creditors, product liability plaintiffs and stockholder litigation. Also, in the event of a Genzyme liquidation, insolvency or similar event, holders of each tracking stock would only have the rights of common stockholders in the combined assets of Genzyme. We provide separate financial statements for each of our divisions as well as consolidated financial statements that include the consolidated results of each of our divisions and our corporate operations taken as a whole. You should read this discussion and analysis of our financial position and results of operations in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements and related notes, which are included in this annual report. In March 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Biomatrix, Inc. Upon completion of the acquisition, we will form a new operating division, and the assets allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair will be re-allocated to that new division. See "Subsequent Event" below. GCS-8 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion summarizes the key factors our management believes are necessary for an understanding of our consolidated financial statements. The components of our consolidated statements of operations are described in the following table:

GCS-9 PRODUCT REVENUE We derive product revenue from sales by Genzyme General of therapeutic, diagnostic and other products, including Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme, and sales by Genzyme Surgical Products of cardiovascular, general surgery and other products, including Sepra Film-Registered Trademark- bioresorbable membrane.

1999 AS COMPARED TO 1998 Our increase in product revenue was largely due to: - increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, which is a therapy for the treatment of Gaucher disease; and - increased sales of Sepra Film-Registered Trademark- bioresorbable membrane and instruments for minimally invasive cardiac surgery. The increase in sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme in 1999 was attributable to our identification of new Gaucher disease patients throughout the world. We also sell Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme for the treatment of Gaucher disease, but we have successfully converted virtually all Gaucher disease patients to a treatment regimen using Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. Our operations are highly dependent on sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and a reduction in revenue from sale of this product would adversely affect our results of operations. Revenue from Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme would be impacted negatively if competitors developed alternative treatments for Gaucher disease and the alternative products gained commercial acceptance. We are aware of companies that have initiated efforts to develop competitive products and other companies may do so in the future. Information on the growth of sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme in 1999 and their relationship to our total product revenues for each year is provided in the table below:
99/98 INCREASE/(DECREASE) 1999 1998 % CHANGE -------- -------- ------------------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) Sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme.............. $478,538 $411,060 16% % of total product revenue........................... 70% 67%
Sales of Sepra Film-Registered Trademark- bioresorbable membrane, which is used to limit the incidence and severity of postoperative adhesions, increased 43% to $13.3 million in 1999 as compared to $9.3 million in 1998. Cardiovascular surgery products include chest drainage and fluid management systems, surgical closures, biomaterials, and instruments for conventional and minimally invasive cardiac surgery. The GCS-10 increase in cardiovascular surgery product revenues in 1999 was primarily attributable to increased sales of instruments for minimally invasive cardiac surgery. The increases in product revenue were partially offset by a decrease in diagnostic products revenue for 1999 as compared to 1998, which reflects the sale of the research products business to Techne Corporation in July 1998 and immunochemistry product line to an operating unit of Sybron Laboratory Products Corporation in July 1999. Diagnostic products revenue includes royalties on product sales by Techne's biotechnology group. 1998 AS COMPARED TO 1997 Our increase in product revenue primarily due to: - increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme; and - an 88% increase in sales of Sepra Film-Registered Trademark- bioresorbable membrane from $4.9 million in 1997 to $9.3 million in 1998, primarily as a result of increased market acceptance of the product. The increase in product revenue for 1998 was partially offset by decreased cardiovascular surgery product revenues as a result of a decrease in sales of fluid management products, which were $39.8 million in 1998, compared to $42.3 million in 1997. The decrease in fluid management product sales was due to the termination of a group-purchasing contract in 1997, the impact of which was realized in 1998. For both 1998 and 1997, our product revenue consisted mainly of sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme as indicated in the table below:
98/97 INCREASE/(DECREASE) 1998 1997 % CHANGE -------- -------- ------------------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) Sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme.............. $411,060 $332,712 24% % of total product revenue........................... 60% 54%
SERVICE REVENUE We derive service revenue from four principal sources: - genetic testing services performed by Genzyme General; - Genzyme Tissue Repair's Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes for the treatment of cartilage damage; - Genzyme Tissue Repair's Epicel-TM- skin grafts for the treatment of severe burns; and - genomics services using Genzyme Molecular Oncology's SAGE-TM- gene expression technology.

GCS-11 1999 AS COMPARED TO 1998 Our service revenue increased during 1999, as compared to 1998, as a result of increases in the provision of genetic testing services as well as increased sales of Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes and Epicel-TM- skin grafts. The increase in sales of Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes was a result of continued increases in the numbers of patients treated and surgeons trained as well as an increase in the number of insurance reimbursement approvals. Sales of genomics services decreased during this period as a result of a decline in the provision of genomics services using Genzyme Molecular Oncology's SAGE-TM- gene expression technology. 1998 AS COMPARED TO 1997 Our service revenue during 1998 increased from 1997 primarily as a result of increased sales of Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes and Epicel-TM- skin grafts. Service revenues for genetic testing in 1998 were level with 1997. The growth in sales of Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes is primarily attributable to increased acceptance by orthopedic surgeons and insurance companies, most notably following the issuance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of a biologics license to Genzyme Tissue Repair for Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes. The increase in sales of Epicel-TM- skin grafts was due to penetration of Epicel-TM- skin grafts into the catastrophic burn market. The increased market share resulted from increased surgeon awareness and from product improvements designed to ease the surgical procedure. INTERNATIONAL PRODUCT AND SERVICE REVENUE A substantial portion of our revenue was generated outside of the United States, as described in the following table. Most of this revenue was attributable to sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. The following table shows international product and service revenue:

MARGINS
99/98 98/97 INCREASE/(DECREASE) INCREASE/(DECREASE) 1999 1998 1997 % CHANGE % CHANGE -------- -------- -------- ------------------- ------------------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) Product margin................ $501,145 $402,609 $323,899 24% 24% % of product revenue........ 73% 66% 61% Service margin................ 30,004 26,205 19,869 14% 32% % of service revenue........ 38% 35% 30% Total gross margin............ 531,149 428,814 343,768 24% 25% % of total product and service revenues.......... 70% 62% 58%
We provide a broad range of healthcare products and services. As a result, our gross margin varies significantly based on the category of product or service. Sales of therapeutic products, including Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, result in higher margins than sales of surgical or diagnostic products. GCS-12 During 1998, we recorded a $25.2 million charge to cost of products sold. The components of this charge were: - a $14.8 million charge related to the operations of Genzyme General to write down excess inventory used to make Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme. We took this charge following our determination that, based on the status of our efforts to convert Gaucher disease patients to a treatment regimen using Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, our existing supply of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme was sufficient to meet estimated patient needs. - a $10.4 million charge related to the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products to write down our inventory of Sepra products to net realizable value. The Sepra products are our line of products and product candidates designed to limit post-operative adhesions. During the third quarter of 1998, we revised our forecasted sales of Sepra products and, in accordance with our policy, analyzed the Sepra products inventory to determine whether the carrying value exceeded the net realizable value. The revised forecast showed slower sales growth as well as higher manufacturing and sales and marketing costs than originally expected. In addition, our inventory on-hand had a relatively high cost per unit because production was significantly less than originally planned. As a result, in the third quarter of 1998, we recorded a charge to cost of products sold to write down our Sepra products inventory to net realizable value. Without the effect of this charge, our product margin for 1998 would have been 70% and our total gross margin during that period would have been 66%. During 1997, we recorded a charge of $5.5 million to cost of products sold allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products relating to the manufacture of Sepracoat-TM- coating solution. We took this charge after an advisory panel of the FDA recommended against granting market approval for this product in 1997. This product is sold outside the United States. Without the effect of this charge, our product margin for 1997 would have been 62% and our total gross margin during that period still would have been 58%. Excluding the charges described above, the increases in product margin and total gross margin during both periods were a result of increased efficiency and process improvements in manufacturing as well as increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. Our service margin also increased during both periods. These increases were attributable to: - an increase in sales of DNA and cancer testing services; - increased sales of Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes; and - a reduction in labor, materials and production costs for Carticel-Registered Trademark- chondrocytes and Epicel-TM- skin grafts. OPERATING EXPENSES 1999 AS COMPARED TO 1998 The increase in selling, general and administrative expense in 1999 as compared to 1998 was related to: - increased expenditures to support the increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme; - costs associated with the market introduction of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone in January 1999; - increased staffing to support the growth in several of Genzyme General's product lines; GCS-13 - a $3.0 million increase to the reserve for doubtful accounts in Genzyme General's genetic testing business as a result of a comprehensive review of contract receivable and self-pay receivables during 1999; and - an increase in professional service fees and higher fringe benefit expenses and costs in connection with the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense in 1999 as compared to 1998 was partially offset by the following: - reduced legal costs in 1999 associated with our prosecution and maintenance of Genzyme Molecular Oncology's intellectual property portfolio; and - a one-time charge taken in 1998 to write off costs incurred in connection with a public offering of Molecular Oncology Stock that was not completed. The increase in research and development expense in 1999 as compared to 1998 was a result of: - increased costs for the program to develop transgenic recombinant human antithrombin III, which is conducted through our consolidated joint venture, ATIII LLC, discussed in "--Minority Interest" below; - increased spending on Genzyme General's program to develop Fabrazyme-TM- enzyme for the treatment of Fabry disease; - increased spending on Genzyme General's cell and gene therapy programs; - the initiation of a clinical trial for Genzyme Molecular Oncology's melanoma tumor vaccine product; - the increase in the number of research personnel and related expenses required to support the continued development of Genzyme Molecular Oncology's cancer vaccine and angiogenesis inhibitor programs; - increased spending for Genzyme Surgical Products' cell and gene therapy programs and the initiation of several clinical trials for its products; - increased spending on the development programs for Genzyme Surgical Products' surgical instruments and devices; - a $2 million milestone payment made by Genzyme Surgical Products to a collaborator in June 1999. The increase in research and development expense in 1999 as compare to 1998 was partially offset by the following: - Genzyme Tissue Repair's termination of its TGF-beta and other research and development programs; and - a $1.7 million charge taken by Genzyme Surgical Products in the third quarter of 1998 to write off certain costs related to equipment that it used to manufacture the Sepra products. In the fourth quarter of 1998, Genzyme General began amortizing a milestone payment that it made to GelTex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. upon FDA approval of Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules. As a result, amortization of intangibles increased slightly during 1999 as compared to 1998. In 1999, we acquired Peptimmune, Inc., a privately-held company whose lead development program was a preclincal research stage program focused on a treatment for pemphigus vulgaris, a rare genetic disease. Because the technology acquired had narrow utility and no application to our ongoing programs, we considered it to have no alternative future use. As a result, we allocated $5.4 million of the purchase price to in-process technology. We recorded this amount as a one-time charge to operations in 1999. We GCS-14 will record our expenses related to the development of the acquired technology as research and development expense until the time at which it reaches technological feasibility. Given the inherent risk in developing early-stage biotechnology products, we may never demonstrate the feasibility of that technology. See "--Factors Affecting Future Operating Results" below. In addition, given the history of consolidation in the biotechnology industry, we expect that we will complete additional acquisitions in the future. Some of these acquisitions will result in a further investment by us in in-process technology. 1998 AS COMPARED TO 1997 The increase in selling, general and administrative expense in 1998 as compared to 1997 was related to: - increased sales and marketing costs related to the product launch of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone; - increased expenditures to support the increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme; - increased administrative support needed to support the growth of Genzyme Molecular Oncology; and - a one-time charge taken in the third quarter of 1998 to write off costs incurred in connection with a public offering of Molecular Oncology Stock that was not completed. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense in 1998 as compared to 1997 was partially offset by the following: - a one time charge of $1.9 million in 1997 related to the manufacture and sale of Sepracoat-TM- coating solution; and - efforts within Genzyme Tissue Repair to streamline operations. The increase in research and development expense in 1998 as compared to 1997 was attributable to the following: - $12.0 million in additional costs resulting from the consolidation of the results of ATIII LLC, for which there were no comparable amounts in 1997; - an increase in research personnel and related expenses to support Genzyme Molecular Oncology's SAGE-TM-, gene therapy and small molecule programs; - higher expenditures in Genzyme Surgical Products' cardiovascular gene and cell therapy scientific research and additional clinical trials initiated for the Sepra products; and - a $1.7 million charge taken by Genzyme Surgical Products in the third quarter of 1998 to write off certain costs related to equipment that it used to manufacture the Sepra products.

EQUITY IN NET LOSS OF UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES At December 31, 1999, we owned approximately 33% of the common stock of Genzyme Transgenics Corporation, which we refer to as GTC. We record in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates our portion of its results. We also record the results of the following joint ventures in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates:
JOINT VENTURE PARTNER(S) EFFECTIVE DATE PRODUCT/INDICATION GENZYME DIVISION ------------- ---------- -------------- ------------------ ---------------- RenaGel LLC GelTex Pharmaceuticals, June 1997 Renagel-Registered Trademark- Genzyme General Inc. capsules reduction of serum phosphorus in patients with end-stage renal disease BioMarin/ Genzyme LLC BioMarin Pharmaceutical September 1998 Aldurazyme-TM- enzyme for the Genzyme General Inc. treatment of mucopolysaccharidosis-I Pharming/ Genzyme LLC Pharming Group, N.V. October 1998 Human alpha-glucosidase for the Genzyme General treatment of Pompe disease Diacrin/Genzyme LLC Diacrin, Inc. October 1996 Products using porcine fetal cells Genzyme Tissue for the treatment of Parkinson's Repair (until May and Huntington's diseases 1999); Genzyme General (after May 1999) StressGen/ Genzyme StressGen July 1997 Stress gene therapies for the Genzyme Molecular LLC(1) Biotechnologies Corp.; treatment of cancer Oncology Canadian Medical Discoveries Fund Inc. (until October 1999)
------------------------------ (1) StressGen/Genzyme LLC was dissolved in December 1999. Our equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates increased as a result of: - increased losses from our joint ventures with GelTex, BioMarin, Pharming and Diacrin in both periods; and GCS-16 - a $1.0 million charge incurred in connection with our repurchase of one-half of the Canadian Medical Discoveries Fund's interest in StressGen/Genzyme LLC in October 1999. These increases were offset in part by decreased losses from GTC for both periods. GAIN ON AFFILIATE SALE OF STOCK GTC, an unconsolidated affiliate, periodically issues additional shares of its common stock. As described in Note A to our consolidated financial statements, it is our policy to record gains on the issuance of stock by our subsidiaries and affiliates. Accordingly, we recorded a $6.7 million gain in 1999 and a $2.4 million gain in 1998. The issuance of additional shares by GTC in 1999 reduced our ownership interest in GTC from 40% to 33%. The issuance of additional shares by GTC in 1998 reduced our ownership interest in GTC from 43% to 40%. MINORITY INTEREST In 1998, we formed ATIII LLC, a joint venture with GTC for the development and commercialization of transgenic recombinant human antithrombin III. We are funding 70% of the first $33.0 million in development costs, excluding facility costs, under this program and 50% of all development costs thereafter. We will pay 50% of all new facility costs to be incurred by ATIII LLC. All profits of ATIII LLC will be split equally; losses are allocated based on the amount of funding provided by each venturer. Because our combined direct and indirect interest in ATIII LLC is in excess of 50%, we consolidate the results of ATIII LLC and record GTC's portion of the ATIII LLC's losses as minority interest. ATIII LLC had losses of $12.2 million and $12.0 million in 1999 and 1998, respectively, of which GTC's portion was $3.7 million and $4.3 million, respectively. GAIN ON SALE OF INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY SECURITIES We recorded gains of $2.0 million in January 1999 and $3.4 million in December 1998 upon our sales of shares of Techne Corporation common stock that we received when we sold our research products business to Techne. GAIN ON SALE OF PRODUCT LINE In July 1999, we recorded a gain of $0.5 million in connection with the sale of our immunochemistry product lines to an operating unit of Sybron Laboratory Products Corporation. In June 1999, we recorded a gain of $7.5 million representing the payment of a note receivable that we received as partial consideration for the sale of Genetic Design, Inc. in 1996. We had previously fully reserved the amount of this note because we considered the repayment of the note to be uncertain. In July 1998, we recorded a gain of $31.2 million in connection with the sale of our research products business to Techne. CHARGE FOR IMPAIRED INVESTMENTS We recorded a $5.7 million charge in 1999 in connection with our investments in the common stock of Pharming Group N.V. and IntegraMed America, Inc., and a $3.4 million charge in 1998 in connection with our investment in the common stock of Celtrix Pharmaceuticals, Inc. because we considered the decline in the value of those investments to be other than temporary. In connection with these assessments, we concluded that substantial evidence existed that the value of the investments would recover to at least our cost. This included continued positive progress in the issuers' scientific programs, ongoing activity in our collaborations with the issuers, and a lack of any substantial company-specific adverse events causing the declines in value. However, given the significance and GCS-17 duration of the declines as of the end of the applicable quarter, we concluded that it was unclear over what period such price recoveries would take place and that, accordingly, the positive evidence suggesting that the investments would recover to at least our purchase price was not sufficient to overcome the presumption that the current market price was the best indicator of the value each of these investments. OTHER In December 1999, we recorded a net gain of $14.4 million upon receipt of a payment associated with the termination of our agreement to acquire Cell Genesys, Inc. INVESTMENT INCOME Our investment income for both periods increased because our cash balances were higher. The increase in cash balances was attributable to our issuance in May 1998 of $250.0 million in principal amount of 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes and increased cash generated from operations. INTEREST EXPENSE Our interest expense increased in both periods primarily as a result of the issuance of the 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes. The increase in both periods was partially offset due to Genzyme Tissue Repair completing the accretion of the conversion feature of the 6% convertible subordinated note in the second quarter of 1998. During 1998, the holder of this note converted $0.6 million of principal into shares of Tissue Repair Stock. During 1999, the holder of this note converted the remaining principal amount of $12.4 million into shares of Tissue Repair Stock. TAX PROVISION

Our tax rates for all periods vary from the U.S. statutory tax rate as a result of our: - provision for state income taxes; - use of a foreign sales corporation; - nondeductible amortization of intangibles; - use of tax credits; and - share of losses of unconsolidated affiliates. EARNINGS ALLOCATIONS Genzyme allocates its earnings to each of our series of common stock based on the earnings attributable to that series of stock. The earnings attributable to each series of stock is defined in our charter as the net income or loss of the corresponding division determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as adjusted for tax benefits allocated to or from the division in GCS-18 accordance with our management and accounting policies. The earnings allocated to each series of common stock are indicated in the table below (in thousands):
1999 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- Earnings allocated to: Genzyme General Stock..................................... $149,630 $121,053 $ 77,435 Molecular Oncology Stock.................................. (28,832) (19,107) (19,578) Surgical Products Stock................................... (20,514) -- -- Tissue Repair Stock....................................... (30,040) (40,386) (45,984)
In connection with the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division and the distribution of Surgical Products Stock on June 28, 1999, we modified the way that we allocate income and losses to our series of stock. Through June 27, 1999, the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products were included in Genzyme General, and the losses of Genzyme Surgical Products were allocated to Genzyme General Stock. Since June 28, 1999, the losses of Genzyme Surgical Products were no longer included in the determination of income allocated to Genzyme General Stock. This change in the methodology of allocating income or losses has resulted in an increase in the income allocated to Genzyme General Stock that is not due to operational changes or new business. Subsequent to the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products, pursuant to the Company's management and accounting policies, tax benefits generated by Genzyme Surgical Products continued to be allocated to Genzyme General Stock. From January 1, 1999 through June 27, 1999, the net loss of Genzyme Surgical Products of $27.5 million was allocated to Genzyme General Stock. From June 28, 1999 through December 31, 1999, the net loss of Genzyme Surgical Products of $20.5 million was allocated to Surgical Products Stock and excluded from income allocated to Genzyme General Stock. As a result of this change in allocation methodology, income allocated to Genzyme General Stock in 1999 was $20.5 million (or 16%) higher than what would have been allocated had Genzyme Surgical Products remained a part of Genzyme General. If the shares of Surgical Products Stock initially issued on June 28, 1999 were assumed to be outstanding since January 1, 1997, net income allocated to Genzyme General Stock, net loss allocated to Surgical Products Stock and weighted average shares outstanding would have been as follows:
1999 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- Genzyme General: Net income allocated to Genzyme General Stock............. $176,883 $170,909 $107,175 Weighted average shares outstanding: Basic................................................... 83,092 79,063 76,531 Diluted................................................. 93,228 85,822 78,925 Genzyme Surgical Products: Net loss allocated to Surgical Products Stock............. $(48,037) $(49,856) $(29,740) Weighted average shares outstanding--basic and diluted 14,800 14,800 14,800
As noted above, the tax benefits associated with the losses of Genzyme Surgical Products for the period from June 28, 1999 to December 31, 1999, which amounted to $6.9 million, continued to be allocated to Genzyme General Stock. Our management and accounting policies provide that, if as of the end of any fiscal quarter, a division can not use any projected annual tax benefit attributable to it to offset or reduce its current or deferred income tax expense, we may allocate the tax benefit to other divisions in proportion to their taxable income without any compensating payments or allocation to the division GCS-19 generating the benefit. Tax benefits allocated to Genzyme General, which are included in earnings attributable to Genzyme General Stock, are as follows (in thousands):
1999 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- Tax benefits allocated from: Genzyme Molecular Oncology................................ $ 7,812 $ 3,527 $ 2,755 Genzyme Surgical Products................................. 16,128 17,936 10,112 Genzyme Tissue Repair..................................... 10,866 16,394 17,666 -------- -------- -------- Total................................................... $ 34,806 $ 37,857 $ 30,533 ======== ======== ========
These tax benefits represent 23%, 31% and 39% of earnings allocated to Genzyme General Stock in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The amount of tax benefits allocated to Genzyme General fluctuate based on the results of Genzyme Molecular Oncology, Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair. If the losses of those divisions decline, as they are expected to, then the tax benefits allocated to Genzyme General will also decline. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At December 31, 1999, we had cash, cash-equivalents, and short- and long-term investments of $653.0 million, an increase of $77.3 million from December 31, 1998. We generated $204.0 million in cash from our operations in 1999. Our investing activities used $182.2 million in cash in 1999. These activities generated: - $11.1 million from the sale of Techne common stock; - $8.4 million from the payment of a note issued in connection with our sale of Genetic Design; - $5.0 million from the sale of our immunochemistry product lines; and - $0.9 million from the distribution of cash from StressGen/Genzyme LLC upon the joint venture's dissolution. These activities used: - $70.6 million for net purchases of investments; - $57.7 million to fund capital expenditures; - $40.0 million to fund our investments in joint ventures; - $6.5 million to fund our acquisition of Peptimmune; - $10.0 million to make a milestone payment to GelTex upon the first anniversary of FDA approval of Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules; - $6.6 million to purchase shares of GTC's preferred stock; - $10.0 million to purchase shares of BioMarin common stock; - $3.4 million to purchase shares of Genovo, Inc. common stock; and - $4.0 million to purchase shares of Focal Inc. common stock. In 1999, we received $60.0 million in cash from employee stock plans and borrowed $5.0 million under a bank credit facility. In 1999, we used $85.1 million in cash to repay debt and capital lease obligations. In 1999, we refinanced our $225 million revolving credit facility with a $50.0 million revolving credit facility that matures in November 2000 and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility that matures in GCS-20 November 2002. At December 31, 1999, $23.0 million was outstanding under the credit facility, of this amount, we have allocated $18.0 million to Genzyme Tissue Repair and $5.0 million to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. Amounts borrowed under this revolving credit facility bear interest at a floating rate based upon an applicable margin above either the prime rate announced by Fleet National Bank or the London InterBank Offered Rate. We must repay all borrowings under this facility no later than November 12, 2002. We believe that our available cash, investments and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund our planned operations and capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Although we currently have substantial cash resources and positive cash flow, we intend to use substantial portions of our available cash for: - product development and marketing; - expanding facilities; - working capital; and - strategic business initiatives. Our cash reserves will be further reduced to pay principal and interest on the following debt: - $250.0 million in principal under our 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes due June 2005, which are convertible into Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock and Surgical Products Stock; - $23.0 million under a revolving credit facility with a group of commercial banks due November 12, 2002. Of this amount, we have allocated $18.0 million to Genzyme Tissue Repair and $5.0 million to Genzyme Molecular Oncology; and - $21.2 million in principal under our 5% convertible subordinated debentures due August 2003, which are convertible into Genzyme General Stock. If we use cash to pay or redeem this debt, including the interest due on it, our cash reserves will be diminished. In addition, if we exercise our option to purchase the limited partnership interests in Genzyme Development Partners, L.P. and use cash to pay all or a portion of the purchase price, our cash resources will be diminished. See Note M., "Research and Development Contracts," to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We currently intend to provide approximately $6.0 million of funding to GDP for the Sepra programs through 2000, based on the 2000 budget for the programs. Future funding commitments for the Sepra development programs will be evaluated on an annual basis. In March 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Biomatrix, Inc. The consideration for the proposed acquisition consists of shares of a new series of our common stock and up to approximately $245 million in cash, allocated at the option of Biomatrix stockholders. To the extent we use cash to complete this acquisition, our cash reserves will be diminished. To satisfy these and other commitments, we may have to obtain additional financing. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain any additional financing, extend any existing financing arrangement, or obtain either on favorable terms. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2001. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that we recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on our GCS-21 balance sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. We are currently assessing the effects of adopting SFAS 133 and have not yet made a determination of the impact SFAS 133 will have on our consolidated financial statements. In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101") which summarizes the staff's view in applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. SAB 101 will be effective beginning October 1, 2000. We are currently assessing the impact of SAB 101 on our revenue recognition policy. EURO--THE NEW EUROPEAN CURRENCY On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union established fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies and the Euro and adopted the Euro as their common legal currency. The Euro trades on currency exchanges and is available for non-cash transactions. These participating countries now issue sovereign debt exclusively in Euros, and have redenominated their outstanding sovereign debt. These countries no longer control their own monetary policies by directing independent interest rates for their legacy currencies. Instead, the authority to direct monetary policy, including money supply and official interest rates for the Euro, is exercised by the new European Central Bank. The legacy currencies of these 11 countries are scheduled to remain legal tender in those countries as denominations of the Euro until January 1, 2002. Until that date, public and private parties may pay for goods and services using either the Euro or the participating country's legacy currency on a "no compulsion, no prohibition" basis. We have formed committees to address the business implications of the Euro conversion, communicate information about the conversion throughout the organization, create global coordination among functional areas and address specific accounting, treasury and tax issues relating to the Euro. Our management believes that the Euro conversion will not affect any of our outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts, or any other material commercial contracts. Similarly, our management does not foresee any increased currency exchange rate risk as a result of the Euro conversion. We are assessing whether there are any long term competitive implications of the Euro conversion. While no material risks have been identified to date, individual European governments may pressure us to have consistent European pricing, and individual customers and distributors in Europe may choose to begin purchasing products in the country where the Euro price is lowest. Because the Internal Revenue Service has not yet issued final regulations regarding the Euro, no assessment can be made as to the tax consequences of the conversion at this time. If the temporary regulations currently in place are adopted in their entirety, we believe that there will be no material tax consequences of the conversion. Because our existing accounting and finance software is currently able to use Euro-based accounts, we believe that the cost of upgrading software and other information systems for the conversion will be immaterial. YEAR 2000 Many computer systems and other equipment with embedded chips or processors experience problems handling dates beyond the year 1999. As a result, older programs may experience operating difficulties that cause date-sensitive transaction errors unless they are modified or upgraded to adequately address the problem. GCS-22 We conducted a Year 2000 compliance program intended to identify and minimize our exposure to Year 2000 problems. The compliance program was a coordinated effort conducted by each of our divisions, business units and departments using our own MIS personnel. The program involved four phases: - conducting an inventory of our Year 2000 issues; - prioritizing identified systems, programs and equipment based on materiality to our operations; - assessing Year 2000 compliance; and - resolving Year 2000 issues through upgrades, replacements or repairs. As of the date of this annual report, we have not experienced any material adverse effects on our business, results of operations or financial condition as a result of the Year 2000 issue. In 1999, we also conducted a survey of third parties that we consider critical to our business about their Year 2000 readiness. Based on the results of this survey, we believe that our critical suppliers and distributors have successfully transitioned into the year 2000 and we are not presently aware of any third party Year 2000 problems that could have a significant impact on our business. We will continue to monitor our operations and the operations of third parties critical to our operations for potential Year 2000 problems. However, we do not anticipate that we will discover any future Year 2000 issues that will have a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. As of March 23, 2000, total costs incurred in connection with our Year 2000 compliance program were approximately $1.2 million and were funded through operations. MARKET RISK We are exposed to potential loss from exposure to market risks represented principally by changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices. At December 31, 1999 we held various derivative contracts in the form of foreign exchange forwards. The derivatives contain no leverage or option features. We also held a number of other financial instruments, including investments in marketable securities, and had balances outstanding under several debt securities. INTEREST RATE RISK We are exposed to potential loss due to changes in interest rates. The principal interest rate exposure is to changes in domestic interest rates. Investments with interest rate risk include short-term deposits with financial institutions, and short-term and long-term investments in marketable securities. Debt with interest rate risk includes fixed rate convertible debt and borrowings under a credit facility. To estimate the potential loss due to changes in interest rates we performed a sensitivity analysis for a one-day horizon. In order to estimate the potential loss, we used an adverse change in interest rates of 100 basis points across the yield curve at year-end. We used the following assumptions in preparing the sensitivity analysis: - convertibles that are "in-the-money" at year end are considered equity securities and are excluded; - convertibles that are "out-of-the-money" at year end are treated as fixed rate debt securities and we assumed we will repay the principal amount in full at maturity and we ignored the exercise of embedded equity option; and - financial instruments contain no other call or leverage features material to our analysis. On this basis, we estimate the potential loss in fair value from changes in interest rates to be $3.1 million, virtually all of which is attributable to Genzyme General. GCS-23 The estimate of potential loss does not include a separate determination of potential losses due to changes in credit spreads. Our investments are investment grade securities and deposits are with investment grade financial institutions. We believe that the realization of losses due to changes in credit spreads is unlikely. The potential loss estimated above on all market risk sensitive instruments reflects a fair value loss on debt offset by a fair value loss on assets. We expect to hold our debt to maturity or conversion, whichever is sooner. Therefore, the realization of the potential loss on debt obligations is unlikely. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK As a result of our worldwide operations, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily to the Euro and its component currencies, British pounds and Japanese yen. These exposures are reflected in market risk sensitive instruments, including foreign currency receivables and payables and foreign exchange forward contracts. During 1999, our risk management strategy for foreign exchange exposure periodically included the use of forward contracts. As of December 31, 1999, we estimate the potential loss in fair value of the forward contracts due to a 10% change in exchange rates to be $2.1 million, virtually all of which is attributable to Genzyme General. EQUITY PRICE RISK We hold investments in a limited number of domestic and European equity securities, substantially all of which are allocated to Genzyme General. We estimate the potential loss in fair value due to a 10% decrease in equity prices of each security held at year-end to be $8.9 million. This estimate assumes no change in foreign exchange rates from year-end spot rates. The increase in potential equity risk is largely explained by the fact that the size of our portfolio has increased from a market value of $51 million to $96 million. FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS The future operating results of Genzyme Corporation and its subsidiaries could differ materially from the results described above due to the following risks and uncertainties, which relate to us generally and affect all of our operating divisions. A REDUCTION IN REVENUES FROM SALES OF PRODUCTS THAT TREAT GAUCHER DISEASE WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS. We generate a majority of our product revenues from sales of enzyme-replacement products for patients with Gaucher disease. We entered this market in 1991 with Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme. Because production of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme was subject to supply constraints, we developed Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, a recombinant form of the enzyme. Recombinant technology uses specially engineered cells to produce enzymes, or other substances, by inserting into the cells of one organism the genetic material of a different species. In the case of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, Chinese hamster ovary cells are engineered to produce human alpha glucocerebrosidase. We stopped producing Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme, except for small quantities, during 1998, after substantially all the patients who previously used Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme converted to Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. Sales of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme totaled $478.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, representing approximately 70% of our product revenues for that year. Because our business is highly dependent on Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, a reduction in revenue from sales of this product would have an adverse effect on our operations and may cause the value of our securities to decline substantially. Revenues from Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme would be impacted negatively if competitors develop alternative treatments for Gaucher disease and these alternative products gained commercial acceptance. Some companies have initiated efforts to develop competitive products, and other companies may do so in the future. Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme has orphan drug status, providing it with market exclusivity in the U.S. until May 2001. We also have patents protecting its manufacturing method until 2010 and its GCS-24 composition until 2013. We cannot predict the effect that the expiration of orphan drug status and market exclusivity will have on sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme after May 2001. GOVERNMENT REGULATION IMPOSES SIGNIFICANT COSTS AND RESTRICTIONS ON THE DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION OF OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Our ability to successfully satisfy regulatory requirements will significantly determine our future success. We cannot guarantee that any required regulatory approvals will be granted or that they will be granted on a timely basis. The production and sale of healthcare products and provision of health care services are highly regulated. In particular, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and comparable agencies in foreign countries must approve human therapeutic and diagnostic products before they are marketed. This approval process can involve lengthy and detailed laboratory and clinical testing, sampling activities and other costly and time-consuming procedures. This regulation may delay the time at which a product or service first can be sold, limit how a product or service may be used, or adversely impact third party reimbursement. In addition, therapies that have received, or in the future receive, regulatory approval for commercial sale may still face subsequent regulatory difficulties. The FDA and comparable foreign regulatory agencies, for example, may require postmarketing clinical trials. In addition, a marketed therapy, its manufacturer and the manufacturer's facilities are subject to continual review and periodic inspections by regulatory agencies. The discovery of previously unknown problems with a therapy, manufacturer or facility can result in restrictions on the therapy or manufacturer, including withdrawal of the therapy from the market. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory approval requirements can result in, among other things: - warning letters; - fines and other civil penalties; - suspended regulatory approvals; - refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications; - suspension of product sales in the U.S. and/or exports from the U.S.; - product recalls; and - seizure of products. LEGISLATIVE CHANGES MAY ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR BUSINESS. Some of our products, including Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, have been designated as orphan drugs under the Orphan Drug Act. The Orphan Drug Act provides incentives to manufacturers to develop and market drugs for rare diseases, generally by entitling the first developer that receives FDA marketing approval for an orphan drug to a seven-year exclusive marketing period in the U.S. for that product. Legislation periodically has been introduced in recent years to change the Orphan Drug Act to shorten the period of automatic market exclusivity and to allow marketing rights to simultaneous developers of the drug. We cannot be sure whether the Orphan Drug Act will be amended, or if amended, what effect the changes may have on us. We have also received orphan drug designation for some of our products that are still in development, including Fabrazyme-TM- enzyme for the treatment of Fabry disease. We are aware of other companies developing products for the treatment of Fabry disease. If any of those companies receive FDA approval for their Fabry disease therapy before we receive FDA approval for Fabrazyme-TM- enzyme, the Orphan Drug Act will preclude us from selling Fabrazyme-TM- enzyme in the U.S. for up to seven years. GCS-25 In addition, healthcare reform is an area of significant government focus. Any reform measures, if adopted, could adversely affect: - the pricing of therapeutic products in the U.S. or internationally; and - the amount of reimbursement available from governmental agencies or other third party payers. BECAUSE THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR PRODUCTS INVOLVES A LENGTHY AND COMPLEX PROCESS, IT IS UNCERTAIN WHETHER WE WILL BE ABLE TO COMMERCIALIZE ANY OF OUR PRODUCTS CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT. Before we can commercialize our development-stage products, we will need to: - conduct substantial research and development; - undertake preclinical and clinical testing; and - pursue regulatory approvals. This process involves a high degree of risk and takes several years. Our product development efforts may fail for many reasons, including: - the product fails in preclinical studies; - clinical trials may not support the safety or effectiveness of the product; or - we fail to obtain the required regulatory approvals. We cannot guarantee that we will successfully develop any particular product. ANY MARKETABLE PRODUCTS THAT WE DEVELOP MAY NOT BE COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL. The commercial success of any marketable product that we develop will depend on many factors, including: - regulation by the FDA and other government authorities; - market acceptance by doctors and hospital administrators; - the effectiveness of our sales force; - the effectiveness of our production and marketing capabilities; - the success of competitive products; and - the availability of third party reimbursement. We cannot guarantee that any product we successfully develop will be commercially successful. WE MAY REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHICH MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE ON FAVORABLE TERMS, IF AT ALL. As of December 31, 1999, we had approximately $653.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-and long-term investments, excluding investments in equity securities. Although we currently have substantial cash resources and positive cash flow, we intend to use substantial portions of our available cash for: - product development and marketing; - expanding facilities; - working capital; and - strategic business initiatives. GCS-26 We will further reduce available cash reserves to pay principal and interest on the following debt: - In May 1998, we issued $250.0 million in convertible notes, the entire principal amount of which is allocated to Genzyme General. These convertible notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.25% and mature on June 1, 2005. However, the holders of these notes may exchange principal on the notes for shares of Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, and Surgical Products Stock. - As of December 31, 1999, we owed approximately $23.0 million under a revolving credit facility with a group of commercial banks. Of this amount, we have allocated $18.0 million to Genzyme Tissue Repair and $5.0 million to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. Amounts borrowed under this revolving credit facility bear interest at a floating rate based upon an applicable margin above either the prime rate announced by Fleet National Bank or the London InterBank Offered Rate. We must repay all borrowings under this facility no later than November 12, 2002. - In August 1998, we issued $21.2 million in convertible debentures, the entire principal amount of which is allocated to Genzyme General. These convertible debentures bear interest at an annual rate of 5% and mature on August 29, 2003, but the holders of these convertible debentures may exchange principal, and under some circumstances interest, on the convertible debentures for shares of Genzyme General Stock. If we use cash to pay or redeem this debt, including the principal and interest due on it, our cash reserves will be diminished. In March 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Biomatrix, Inc. The consideration for the proposed acquisition consists of shares of a new series of our common stock and up to approximately $245 million in cash. To the extent we use cash to complete this acquisition, our cash reserves will be diminished. To satisfy these and other commitments, we may have to obtain additional financing. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain any additional financing, extend any existing financing arrangement, or obtain either on favorable terms. WE MAY FAIL TO PROTECT ADEQUATELY OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY, WHICH WOULD ALLOW COMPETITORS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS. Our long-term success largely depends on our ability to obtain and maintain patent and other proprietary right protection for our technology and products. If we fail to obtain or maintain these protections, we may not be able to prevent third parties from using our proprietary rights. Patents based on our currently pending or our future patent applications may not issue. In addition, our issued patents may not contain claims sufficiently broad to protect us against third parties with similar technologies or products, or provide us with any competitive advantage. Further, our patents, our collaborators' patents, and those patents for which we have license rights may be challenged, narrowed, invalidated or circumvented. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the courts have not established a consistent policy regarding the breadth of claims allowed in biotechnology patents. The allowance of broader claims may increase the incidence and cost of patent interference proceedings and the risk of infringement litigation. On the other hand, the allowance of narrower claims may limit the value of our proprietary rights. Any policies that are adopted may result in changes in or interpretations of the patent laws that adversely affect our patent position. We also rely upon trade secrets, proprietary know-how, and continuing technological innovation to remain competitive. We have taken measures to protect our trade secrets and know-how, including the use of confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and corporate collaborators. It is possible GCS-27 that these agreements may be breached and that any remedies for a breach will not make us whole. We also cannot guarantee that other parties will not independently develop our know-how or otherwise obtain access to our technology. WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO LICENSE TECHNOLOGY FROM COMPETITORS IN ORDER TO DEVELOP AND COMMERCIALIZE SOME OF OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, AND IT IS UNCERTAIN WHETHER THESE LICENSES WILL BE AVAILABLE. Third party patent rights and pending patent applications filed by third parties, if issued, may cover some of the products that we or our strategic collaborators are developing or testing. As a result, we or a strategic collaborator may be required to obtain licenses from the holders of these patents in order to use, manufacture or sell these products and services, and payments under these licenses may reduce the profitability of the products. Furthermore, we cannot be sure that these licenses would be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If these licenses are not available, our or our strategic collaborators' ability to commercialize these products and services may be impaired. WE MAY INCUR SUBSTANTIAL COSTS AS A RESULT OF LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO PATENT AND OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. If we or one of our strategic collaborators initiate litigation to enforce our patent or license rights, or are required to defend these rights in response to third party claims, it could consume a substantial portion of our resources. We cannot guarantee that we or our strategic collaborator would prevail in such litigation. If we do not prevail, we or our strategic collaborators may be required to: - pay monetary damages; - stop commercial activities relating to the affected products or services; or - obtain a license in order to continue manufacturing or marketing the affected products or services. If we are required to pay damages or if commercial activities are disrupted, our business or financial position may be negatively impacted. In addition, if we or our strategic collaborators are required to obtain a license, we cannot guarantee that one would be made available to us or made available on acceptable terms or at all. WE MAY BE LIABLE FOR PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE. Individuals who use our products or services may bring product liability claims against us. While we have taken, and continue to take, what we believe are appropriate precautions, we cannot guarantee that we will avoid significant liability exposure. We have only limited amounts of product liability insurance, and we cannot be sure that this insurance will provide sufficient coverage against any product liability claims. If we attempt to obtain additional insurance in the future, we may not be able to do so on acceptable terms, and any additional insurance we do obtain may not provide adequate coverage against any asserted claims. In addition, regardless of merit or eventual outcome, product liability claims may result in: - diversion of management time and attention; - expenditure of large amounts of cash on legal fees, expenses and payment of damages; - decreased demand for our products and services; and - injury to our reputation. OUR COMPETITORS IN THE BIOTECHNOLOGY AND PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES MAY HAVE SUPERIOR PRODUCTS, MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES OR MARKETING EXPERTISE. The human health care products and services industry is extremely competitive. Our competitors include major pharmaceutical companies and other biotechnology companies. Some of these competitors GCS-28 may have more extensive research and development, marketing and production capabilities. Some competitors also may have greater financial resources than us. Our future success will depend on our ability to develop and market effectively our products against those of our competitors. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO KEEP UP WITH RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES, OUR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES MAY BECOME OBSOLETE. The field of biotechnology is characterized by significant and rapid technological change. Although we attempt to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, research and discoveries by others may make our products or services obsolete. For example, some of our competitors may develop a product to treat Gaucher disease that is more effective or less expensive than Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. IF WE FAIL TO OBTAIN ADEQUATE LEVELS OF REIMBURSEMENT FOR OUR PRODUCTS FROM THIRD PARTY PAYERS, THE COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL OF OUR PRODUCTS WILL BE SIGNIFICANTLY LIMITED. A substantial portion of our revenue comes from payments by third party payers, including government health administration authorities and private health insurers. Third party payers may not reimburse patients for newly approved health care products. Increasingly, third party payers are attempting to contain healthcare costs by: - challenging the prices charged for healthcare products and services; - limiting both coverage and the amount of reimbursement for new therapeutic products; - denying or limiting coverage for products that are approved by the FDA, but are considered experimental or investigational by third party payers; and - refusing, in some cases, to provide coverage when an approved product is used for disease indications in a way that has not received FDA marketing approval. Government and other third party payers may not provide adequate insurance coverage or reimbursement for our products and services, which could impair our financial results. In addition, Congress occasionally has discussed implementing broad-based measures to contain healthcare costs. It is possible that Congress will enact legislation specifically designed to contain healthcare costs. We cannot predict the effect that legislation of this type would have on our business. CHANGES IN THE ECONOMIC, POLITICAL, LEGAL AND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENTS IN THE FOREIGN COUNTRIES IN WHICH WE DO BUSINESS COULD CAUSE OUR INTERNATIONAL SALES AND OPERATIONS, WHICH ACCOUNT FOR A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE OF OUR CONSOLIDATED NET SALES, TO BE LIMITED OR DISRUPTED. Our international operations accounted for 41% of our consolidated revenues in 1999 and 1998, and we expect that international sales will continue to account for a significant percentage of our revenues for the foreseeable future. In addition, we have direct investments in a number of subsidiaries outside of the U.S., primarily in Europe and Japan. Our international sales and operations could be limited or disrupted, and the value of our direct investments may be adversely affected, by any of the following: - fluctuations in currency exchange rates; - the imposition of government controls; - less favorable intellectual property or other applicable laws; - the inability to obtain any necessary foreign regulatory approvals of products in a timely manner; - import and export license requirements; - political instability; - trade restrictions; - changes in tariffs; GCS-29 - difficulties in staffing and managing international operations; and - longer payment cycles. A significant portion of our business is conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which is our reporting currency. We recognize foreign currency gains or losses arising from our operations in the period incurred. As a result, currency fluctuations among the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which we do business have caused foreign currency transaction gains and losses in the past and will likely do so in the future. We cannot predict the effects of exchange rate fluctuations upon our future operating results because of the number of currencies involved, the variability of currency exposures and the potential volatility of currency exchange rates. SEVERAL ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS MAY DEPRIVE OUR STOCKHOLDERS OF THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE A PREMIUM FOR THEIR SHARES UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL. Provisions of Massachusetts law and our charter, by-laws and shareholder rights plan could delay or prevent a change in control of Genzyme or a change in our management. Our tracking stock structure may also deprive our stockholders of the opportunity to receive a premium for their shares upon a change in control because, in order to obtain control of a particular division, an acquiror would have to obtain control of the entire corporation. In addition, our board of directors may, in their sole discretion: - exchange shares of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock or Tissue Repair Stock for Genzyme General Stock at a 30% premium over the market value of the exchanged shares; and - issue shares of undesignated preferred stock from time to time in one or more series. Either of these board actions could increase the cost of an acquisition of Genzyme and thus discourage a takeover attempt. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS GENZYME TRANSGENICS In February 2000, we recorded a gain of $20.3 million relating to a public offering of 3.5 million common shares by our unconsolidated affiliate, Genzyme Transgenics Corporation ("GTC"). The public offering resulted in net proceeds to GTC of $75.2 million (after the exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option). As a result of the issuance of additional shares by GTC, our ownership interest in GTC decreased from 33% to 28%. ACQUISITION OF BIOMATRIX, INC. AND FORMATION OF GENZYME BIOSURGERY In March 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Biomatrix, Inc. Upon the effectiveness of our Registration Statement on Form S-4 and completion of the merger, we will form a new operating division called Genzyme Biosurgery and create a new series of common stock that is intended to reflect its value and track its performance. We refer to this stock as "Biosurgery Stock." In connection with the merger, and upon Genzyme shareholder approval, the assets and liabilities allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair will be re-allocated to Genzyme Biosurgery and shares of Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock will be exchanged for Biosurgery Stock. We will account for the acquisition of Biomatrix as a purchase. Biomatrix stockholders will receive $37.00 in cash, one share of Biosurgery Stock or a combination of cash and stock for each share of Biomatrix common stock they hold. The merger agreement provides that we will pay cash for up to 28.38% of the outstanding shares of Biomatrix common stock that receive merger consideration, or up to approximately $245.0 million. GCS-30 Holders of Surgical Products Stock will receive 0.6060 share of Biosurgery Stock in exchange for each share of Surgical Products Stock they hold and holders of Tissue Repair Stock will receive 0.3352 share of Biosurgery Stock in exchange for each share of Tissue Repair Stock they hold. For more information about the merger and the merger consideration, we encourage you to carefully read our Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-34972) filed with the SEC on April 18, 2000 and as amended from time to time. The acquisition is subject to: - approval by Biomatrix's shareholders; - approval by our shareholders, including separate approvals by the holders of shares of Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock; and - other customary closing conditions. REGISTRATION STATEMENT In March 2000, we filed a prospectus with the SEC covering the offering of 3,000,000 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock (plus 450,000 shares issuable upon exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option). The proceeds of the offering were to be used by Genzyme Molecular Oncology to fund research, pre-clinical and clinical development programs, to repay existing indebtedness, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. GCS-39 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BUSINESS We are a biotechnology company that develops innovative products and services for significant unmet medical needs. We have four operating divisions: - Genzyme General, which develops and markets: - therapeutic products, with an expanding focus on products to treat patients suffering from lysosomal storage disorders and other specialty therapeutics; - diagnostic products, with a focus on IN VITRO diagnostics; and - other products and services, such as genetic testing and lipids and peptides for drug delivery. - Genzyme Molecular Oncology, which is developing cancer products, with a focus on therapeutic vaccines and angiogenesis inhibitors; - Genzyme Surgical Products, which develops, manufactures and markets surgical products for cardiovascular surgery and general surgery; and - Genzyme Tissue Repair, which develops and markets biological products for orthopedic injuries, such as cartilage damage, and severe burns. We currently have four designated series of common stock designed to reflect the value and track the performance of one of our divisions. We refer to our series of common stock as follows: - Genzyme General Division Common Stock = "Genzyme General Stock;" - Genzyme Molecular Oncology Division Common Stock = "Molecular Oncology Stock;" - Genzyme Surgical Products Division Common Stock = "Surgical Products Stock;" and - Genzyme Tissue Repair Division Common Stock = "Tissue Repair Stock." In June 1999, we created the Genzyme Surgical Products division. The business of Genzyme Surgical Products previously operated as a business unit of Genzyme General. Upon the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products, we transferred $150.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, and certain other assets, from Genzyme General to Genzyme Surgical Products. In exchange, 14.8 million shares of Surgical Products Stock were distributed as a dividend to holders of Genzyme General Stock. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Our consolidated financial statements for each period include the balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows of each of our divisions and corporate operations taken as a whole. We eliminate all significant intracompany items and transactions in consolidation. We have reclassified certain 1998 and 1997 data to conform with our 1999 presentation. TRACKING STOCKS We have four series of common stock--Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock--which we refer to as "tracking stock." Unlike typical common stock, each of our tracking stocks is designed to track the financial performance of a specific subset of our business operations and its allocated assets, rather than operations and assets of our entire company. The GCS-40 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) chief mechanisms intended to cause each tracking stock to "track" the financial performance of each division are provisions in our charter governing dividends and distributions. Under these provisions, our charter: - factors the assets and liabilities and income or losses attributable to a division into the determination of the amount available to pay dividends on the associated tracking stock; and - requires us to exchange, redeem or distribute a dividend to the holders of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock, or Tissue Repair Stock if all or substantially all of the assets allocated to those corresponding divisions are sold to a third party (a dividend or redemption payment must equal in value the net after-tax proceeds from the sale; an exchange must be for Genzyme General Stock at a 10% premium to the exchanged stock's average market price following the announcement of the sale). To determine earnings per share, we allocate Genzyme's earnings to each series of our common stock based on the earnings attributable to that series of stock. The earnings attributable to each series of stock is defined in our charter as the net income or loss of the corresponding division determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as adjusted for tax benefits allocated to or from the division in accordance with our management and accounting policies. Our charter also requires that all income and expenses of Genzyme be allocated among the divisions in a reasonable and consistent manner. However, subject to its fiduciary duties, our board of directors can, at its discretion, change the methods of allocating earnings to each series of common stock. We intend to allocate earnings using our current methods for the foreseeable future. Because the earnings allocated to each series of stock are based on the income or losses attributable to each corresponding division, we include financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of Genzyme Corporation and of each division to aid investors in evaluating Genzyme's performance and the performance of each of its divisions. While each tracking stock is designed to reflect each division's performance, it is common stock of Genzyme Corporation and not of a division; each division is not a company or legal entity, and therefore does not and cannot issue stock. Consequently, holders of each tracking stock have no specific rights to assets allocated to each division. Genzyme Corporation continues to hold title to all of the assets allocated to the corresponding division and is responsible for all of its liabilities, regardless of what it deems for financial statement presentation purposes as allocated to any division. Holders of each tracking stock, as common stockholders, are therefore subject to the risks of investing in the businesses, assets and liabilities of Genzyme as a whole. For instance, the assets allocated to each division are subject to company-wide claims of creditors, product liability plaintiffs and stockholder litigation. Also, in the event of a Genzyme liquidation, insolvency or similar event, holders of each tracking stock would only have the rights of common stockholders in the combined assets of Genzyme. ALLOCATION POLICY Our charter sets forth what operations and assets are initially allocated to each division and states that going forward the division will also include all business, products or programs, developed by or acquired for the division, as determined by our board of directors. We then manage and account for transactions between our divisions and with third parties, and any resulting re-allocations of assets and liabilities, by applying consistently across divisions a detailed set of policies established by our board of directors. We GCS-41 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) publicly disclose our divisional management and accounting policies, which appear in Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our charter requires that all assets and liabilities of Genzyme be allocated among the divisions. Our board of directors, however, retains considerable discretion in determining the types, magnitudes and extent of allocations to each series of common stock without shareholder approval. Our allocations to our divisions are based on one of the following methodologies: - Specific identification--assets that are dedicated to the production of goods of a division or which solely benefit a division are allocated to that division. Liabilities incurred as a result of the performance of services for the benefit of a division or in connection with the expenses incurred which directly benefit a division are allocated to the division. Such specifically identified assets and liabilities include cash, investments, accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred revenue. Revenues from the licensing of a division's products or services to third parties and the related costs are allocated to a division; - Actual usage--expenses are charged to the division for whose benefit such expenses are incurred. Research and development, sales and marketing and direct general and administrative services are charged to the divisions for which the service is performed on a cost basis. Such charges are generally based on direct labor hours; - Proportionate usage--costs incurred which benefit more than one division are allocated based on management's estimate of the proportionate benefit each division receives. Such costs include facilities, legal, finance, human resources, executive and investor relations; or - Board directed--programs and products, both internally developed and acquired, are allocated to divisions by the board of directors. The board also allocates long-term debt and strategic investments. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION We use the equity method to account for investments in entities in which we have a substantial ownership interest (20% to 50%), or in which we participate in policy decisions. Our consolidated net income includes our share of the earnings of these entities. We report at fair value investments in entities in which our ownership interest is less than 20%. DIVIDEND POLICY We have never paid a cash dividend on shares of our stock. We currently intend to retain our earnings to finance future growth and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our stock in the foreseeable future. USE OF ESTIMATES Under generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. Our actual results could differ from these estimates. GCS-42 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS A number of financial instruments subject us to significant credit risk, including cash and cash equivalents, current and non-current investments, and accounts receivable. We generally invest our cash in investment-grade securities to mitigate risk. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS We value our cash and cash equivalents at cost plus accrued interest, which we believe approximates their market value. Our cash equivalents consist principally of money market funds and municipal notes with initial maturities of three months or less. INVESTMENTS We classify our investments with remaining maturities of twelve months or less as short-term investments. We classify our investments with remaining maturities of greater than twelve months as long-term investments. We classify our investments in debt securities as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale based on facts and circumstances present at the time we purchase the securities. We report available-for-sale investments at fair value as of each balance sheet date and include any unrealized holding gains and losses (the adjustment to fair value) in stockholders' equity. If any adjustment to fair value reflects a decline in the value of the investment, we consider all available evidence to evaluate the extent to which the decline is "other than temporary" and mark the investment to market through a charge to our statement of operations. As of each balance sheet date presented, we classified all of our investments in debt securities as available-for-sale. We classify all of our equity investments as available-for-sale. If our investment is in a publicly traded security, we calculate fair value based on market quotations. Investments in equity securities for which fair value is not readily determinable are carried at cost. INVENTORIES We value inventories at cost or, if lower, fair value. We determine cost using the first-in, first-out method. We analyze our inventory levels quarterly and establish reserves against: - inventory that has become obsolete; - inventory that has a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value; and - inventory in excess of expected requirements. We utilize inventory reserves in accordance with the guidance contained in the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 100. Accordingly, inventory reserves that are established to write down inventory to net realizable value are released as the related inventory is sold. Reserves for excess inventory quantities are released as the related inventory is disposed of or, if there is an unanticipated increase in the demand for the product, when the inventory is sold. Inventory with a life in excess of its shelf life is disposed of and the related costs are written off. GCS-43 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT We record property, plant and equipment at cost. When we dispose of these assets, we remove the related cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization from the related accounts on our balance sheet and include any resulting gain or loss in our statement of operations. We generally compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. We compute useful lives as follows: - plant and equipment--three to ten years - furniture and fixtures--five to seven years - buildings--20 to 40 years We depreciate certain specialized manufacturing equipment and facilities allocated to Genzyme General over their remaining useful lives using the units-of-production method. We evaluate the remaining life and recoverability of this equipment periodically based on the appropriate facts and circumstances. We amortize leasehold improvements over their useful life or, if shorter, the term of the applicable lease. For products we expect to be commercialized, we capitalize, to construction-in-progress, the costs we incur in validating the manufacturing process. We begin this capitalization when we consider the product to have demonstrated technological feasibility and end this capitalization when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. These capitalized costs include incremental labor and direct material, and incremental fixed overhead and interest. We generally depreciate these costs using the units-of-production method. INTANGIBLES Our intangible assets consist of: - goodwill; - covenants not to compete; - customer lists; and - patents, trademarks, trade names and other technology rights. We amortize intangible assets using the straight-line method over useful lives of three to 40 years. We evaluate the recoverability of our intangible and other long-lived assets when the facts and circumstances suggest that these assets may be impaired. When we conduct such an evaluation we consider several factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections, strategic plans and market emphasis. Our evaluations also compare expected cumulative, undiscounted operating incomes or cash flows of these assets with the net book values of the related intangible assets. We charge unrealizable intangible and long-lived asset values to operations if our evaluations indicate that the value of these assets are impaired. GCS-44 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES We translate the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries from local currency into U.S. dollars using: - the current exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities; and - the average exchange rate prevailing during each period for revenues and expenses. We consider the local currency for all of our foreign subsidiaries to be the functional currency for that subsidiary. As a result, we included translation adjustments for these subsidiaries in stockholders' equity. We also record as a charge or credit to stockholders' equity exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances that are of a long-term investment nature. Our stockholders' equity includes cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $19.7 million at December 31, 1999 and $4.8 million at December 31, 1998. Our gains and losses on all other foreign currency transactions are included in our results of operations. We recorded a net gain of $0.1 million in 1999, a net gain of $0.3 million in 1998 and a net loss of $0.3 million in 1997. FOREIGN CURRENCY HEDGING We periodically enter into forward contracts to reduce our foreign currency exchange risk. On each balance sheet date, we revalue these contracts using the exchange rates that are then in effect. We include in net income all gains and losses resulting from these revaluations, although these amounts are not material to our financial statements. We had $6.0 million outstanding in foreign currency forward contracts at December 31, 1999. These forward contracts, which were denominated in Euros, had a fair value of $0.7 million. We allocated these contracts to Genzyme General. We had no forward contracts at December 31, 1998. INTEREST RATE HEDGE AGREEMENTS We use interest rate hedge agreements to mitigate the interest rate risks and costs that are inherent in our debt portfolio. We enter into these agreements primarily to change the fixed/variable interest rate mix of the portfolio, which reduces our exposure to movements in interest rates. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. We recognize in income any differential that we may receive or pay under contracts designated as hedges. This recognition occurs over the life of the applicable contract as an adjustment to interest expense. We estimate the fair value of interest rate hedge agreements based on the amount it would cost to terminate the agreements. REVENUE RECOGNITION We recognize revenue from product sales when we ship the product and title has passed, net of any applicable third party contractual allowances and rebates. We recognize revenue from service sales when we have finished providing the service or when we have achieved an applicable milestone. We recognize revenue from research and development contracts over the term of the applicable contract and as we incur costs related to that contract. Up-front license fees and milestone payments are recognized as revenue only if there are no remaining performance obligations and the fees are non-refundable. GCS-45 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) We receive royalties related to the manufacture, sale or use of our products or technologies under license arrangements with third parties. For those arrangements where royalties are reasonably estimable, we recognize revenue based on estimates of royalties earned during the applicable period and adjust for differences between the estimated and actual royalties in the following quarter. Historically, these adjustments have not been material. For those arrangements where royalties are not reasonably estimable, we recognize revenue upon receipt of licensee royalty statements. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT We expense research and development costs in the period incurred. We also expense the cost of purchased technology in the period of purchase if we believe that the technology has not demonstrated technological feasibility and that it does not have an alternative future use. ISSUANCE OF STOCK BY A SUBSIDIARY OR AN AFFILIATE We include gains on the issuance of stock by our subsidiaries and affiliates in net income unless that subsidiary or affiliate is a research and development, start-up or development stage company or an entity whose viability as a going concern is under consideration. In those situations, we account for the change in our equity ownership of that subsidiary or affiliate as an equity transaction. INCOME TAXES We use the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Our provision for income taxes includes income taxes currently payable and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. We file a consolidated return and allocate income taxes to each division based upon the financial statement income, taxable income, credits and other amounts properly allocable to each division under generally accepted accounting principles as if it were a separate taxpayer. We assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets at the division level. As a result, our consolidated tax provision may not equal the sum of the divisions' tax provisions. We have not provided for possible U.S. taxes on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. We do not believe it is practicable to determine the tax liability associated with the repatriation of our foreign earnings because it is our policy to indefinitely reinvest these earnings in non-U.S. operations. At December 31, 1999, these undistributed foreign earnings totaled approximately $6.0 million. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE We calculate earnings per share for each series of stock using the two-class method. To calculate basic earnings per share for each series of stock, we divide the earnings allocated to each series of stock by the weighted average number of outstanding shares of that series of stock during the applicable period. When we calculate diluted earnings per share, we also include in the denominator all potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the applicable period. We allocate Genzyme's earnings to each series of our common stock based on the earnings attributable to that series of stock. The earnings attributable to Genzyme General Stock, as defined in our charter, is equal to the net income or loss of Genzyme General determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as adjusted for tax benefits allocated to or from Genzyme General in accordance with our management and accounting policies. GCS-46 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Earnings attributable to Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock are defined similarly and, as such, are based on the net income or loss of the corresponding division as adjusted for the allocation of tax benefits. We calculate the income tax provision of each division as if such division were a separate taxpayer which includes assessing realizability of deferred tax assets at the division level. Our management and accounting policies provide that, if as of the end of any fiscal quarter, a division can not use any projected annual tax benefit attributable to it to offset or reduce its current or deferred income tax expense, we may allocate the tax benefit to other divisions in proportion to their taxable income without compensating payment or allocation to the division generating the benefit. The tax benefits allocated to Genzyme General, which are included in earnings attributable to Genzyme General Stock, were:

In future periods, Genzyme Molecular Oncology, Genzyme Surgical Products or Genzyme Tissue Repair may recognize deferred tax assets in the calculation of their respective tax provisions determined on a separate division basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. However, to the extent the benefit of those deferred tax assets has been previously allocated to Genzyme General in accordance with the management and accounting policies, such benefit will be reflected as a reduction of net income to determine net income attributable to Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock or Tissue Repair Stock. As of December 31, 1999, the total tax benefits previously allocated to Genzyme General were (in thousands): Genzyme Molecular Oncology.................................. $17,048 Genzyme Surgical Products................................... 58,106 Genzyme Tissue Repair....................................... 82,590
REVISION We had previously reported income (loss) allocated to Genzyme General Stock and Surgical Products Stock, and earnings per share of Genzyme General Stock, as adjusted to retroactively reflect the changes in earnings allocations resulting from the June 1999 creation and distribution of Surgical Products Stock. The allocation of Genzyme's historical earnings has been revised to reflect an allocation of Genzyme's earnings to each series of common stock outstanding in periods prior to June 1999 and to each series of common stock, including Surgical Products Stock, thereafter. The impact of these revisions for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 are as follows: GCS-47 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A.

MOLECULAR ONCOLOGY STOCK: We created Genzyme Molecular Oncology on June 18, 1997. Prior to this date, the operations of Genzyme Molecular Oncology were included in the results of Genzyme General. Net loss per share of Molecular Oncology Stock for 1997 is calculated using the net loss allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology for the period June 18, 1997 through December 31, 1997 and the weighted average shares outstanding during the same period. Loss per share data is not presented for Genzyme Molecular Oncology for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, or for the period from January 1, 1997 to June 17, 1997, as there were no shares of Molecular Oncology Stock outstanding. In accounting for the acquisition of PharmaGenics, Genzyme Molecular Oncology recorded a valuation allowance against a $2.9 million tax asset related to acquired net operating losses due to the application of the Company's policy of accounting for income taxes at the divisional level as if each division were a separate taxpayer. As a result, Genzyme Molecular Oncology recorded an additional $2.9 million of goodwill that was not recorded at the consolidated level. The amortization of this goodwill increases the loss of Genzyme Molecular Oncology and, therefore, the loss allocated to Molecular Oncology Stock. This additional amortization amounted to approximately $1.0 million in 1999 and 1998 and $0.5 million in 1997. For all periods presented, basic and diluted net loss per share of Molecular Oncology Stock are the same. We did not include the securities described in the following table in the computation of Molecular GCS-50 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A.

------------------------ (1) Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares are shares of Molecular Oncology Stock that are not issued and outstanding, but which our board of directors may issue, sell or distribute without allocating the proceeds to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. As of December 31, 1999, there were 1,688,237 Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares, assuming that a public offering of Molecular Oncology Stock is not completed prior to June 18, 2000. If such an offering is completed prior to that date, the number of Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares reserved for issuance in connection with a draw under an interdivisional financing arrangement in 1998 will decrease based on a formula set forth in our charter. (2) For the period from June 17, 1997 through December 31, 1997. SURGICAL PRODUCTS STOCK (REVISED): We created Genzyme Surgical Products on June 28, 1999. Prior to this date, the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products were included in the operations allocated to Genzyme General and, therefore, in the net income allocated to Genyzme General Stock. Net loss per share data of Surgical Products Stock is calculated using the net loss allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products for the period June 28, 1999 through December 31, 1999 and weighted average shares outstanding during the same period. Loss per share data is not presented for Surgical Products Stock for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 as there were no shares of Surgical Products Stock outstanding.

GCS-52 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME As of January 1, 1998, we adopted SFAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income, which consists of net income and all changes in equity from non-shareholder sources. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION As permitted under SFAS 123, we include pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share information (calculated using the fair value based method) under the heading "Compensation Expense" in Note L., "Stockholders' Equity," to these consolidated financial statements. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2001. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that we recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on our balance sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. We are currently assessing the effects of adopting SFAS 133 and have not yet made a determination of the impact SFAS 133 will have on our consolidated financial statements. In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101") which summarizes the staff's view in applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. SAB 101 will be effective beginning October 1, 2000. We are currently assessing the impact of SAB 101 on our revenue recognition policy. UNCERTAINTIES We are subject to risks and uncertainties common to companies in the biotechnology industry. These risks and uncertainties may affect our future results, and include: - our ability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development of our products and services; - our ability to manufacture sufficient amounts of our products for development and commercialization activities; - our ability to obtain timely regulatory approval of our products and services; - our ability to obtain and maintain adequate patent and other proprietary rights protection of our products and services; - the content and timing of decisions made by the FDA and other regulatory agencies regarding our products and services; - the accuracy of our estimates of the size and characteristics of the markets to be addressed by our products and services; - market acceptance of our products and services; GCS-53 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - our ability to obtain reimbursement for our products and services by third party payers; - our ability to establish and maintain licenses, strategic collaborations and distribution arrangements; - the continued funding of our joint ventures; and - the accuracy of our information regarding the products and resources of our competitors and potential competitors. NOTE B. OTHER GAINS AND CHARGES During the fourth quarter of 1999, we recorded a net gain of $14.4 million upon receipt of a payment associated with the termination of our agreement to acquire Cell Genesys, Inc. We recorded this gain as other income in our statement of operations and allocated it to Genzyme General. During the third quarter of 1998, we recorded a $25.2 million charge to cost of products sold. The components of this charge are: - a $14.8 million charge related to the operations of Genzyme General to write down excess inventory used to make Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme. We took this charge following our determination that, based on the status of our efforts to convert Gaucher disease patients to a treatment regimen using Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, our existing supply of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme was sufficient to meet estimated patient needs. - a $10.4 million charge related to the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products to write down our inventory of Sepra products to net realizable value. The Sepra products are our line of products and product candidates designed to limit post-operative adhesions. During the third quarter of 1998, we revised our forecasted sales of Sepra products and, in accordance with our policy, analyzed the Sepra products inventory to determine whether the carrying value exceeded the net realizable value. The revised forecast showed slower sales growth as well as higher manufacturing and sales and marketing costs than originally expected. In addition, our inventory on-hand had a relatively high cost per unit because production was significantly less than originally planned. As a result, in the third quarter of 1998, we recorded a charge to cost of products sold to write down our Sepra products inventory to net realizable value. We also recorded $29.1 million in other charges in the fourth quarter of 1997. The components of these charges are: - an $18.1 million charge to cost of products sold to write down excess inventory in our melatonin, bulk pharmaceuticals and fine chemical product lines. We took this charge, which was allocated to Genzyme General, after we discontinued these product lines. - a $5.5 million charge to cost of products sold and a $3.5 million charge to selling, general and administrative expense relating to the manufacture and sale of Sepracoat-TM- coating solution. We took these charges, which were allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products, after an FDA advisory panel recommended against granting marketing approval for the product. - a $2.0 million charge to other expense relating to our uncertainty in collecting a note receivable that we issued when we sold Genetic Design, Inc. This charge was allocated to Genzyme General. GCS-54 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE C. DISPOSITIONS OF ASSETS SYBRON LABORATORY PRODUCTS In July 1999, we sold the assets of our immunochemistry product line to an operating unit of Sybron Laboratory Products Corp. for $5.0 million in cash. We recorded a gain of $0.5 million in connection with the sale of this product line. The immunochemistry product line had been allocated to Genzyme General. LABORATORY CORPORATION OF AMERICA In 1996, we sold Genetic Design to Laboratory Corporation of America. A portion of the purchase price was a note for which we previously had fully reserved because of uncertainty regarding collection. In April 1999, we received an $8.4 million payment on that note and recorded a $7.5 million gain in connection with that payment. Genetic Design had been allocated to Genzyme General. TECHNE In July 1998, we sold the assets of our research products business to Techne Corporation in exchange for: - $24.8 million in cash; - approximately 987,000 shares of Techne common stock; and - royalties on product sales by Techne's biotechnology group through June 2003. We will record royalty income as it is earned. In 1998, we recorded a $31.2 million gain in connection with the sale of this business and an additional $3.4 million gain upon the sale of a portion of our investment in Techne common stock. We recorded these gains as gain on sale of equity investments. In 1999, we recorded a gain of $2.0 million upon the sale of our remaining shares of Techne common stock. The research products business had been allocated to Genzyme General. NOTE D. ACQUISITIONS PEPTIMMUNE In July 1999, we acquired Peptimmune, Inc., a privately-held company whose lead development program focuses on a treatment for pemphigus vulgaris. We allocated this acquisition to Genzyme General and accounted for it as a purchase. We allocated the aggregate purchase price of $6.5 million and assumed liabilities of $0.3 million to the tangible and intangible assets we acquired from Peptimmune based on their respective fair values (amounts in thousands): Property, plant & equipment................................. $ 128 Deferred tax asset.......................................... 1,229 In-process technology....................................... 5,436 ------ Total..................................................... $6,793 ======
The $5.4 million allocated to in-process research and development represents the value we assigned to Peptimmune's programs that were still in the development stage and for which there was no alternative future use. We recorded this amount as a charge to operations. GCS-55 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE D. ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED) PHARMAGENICS In June 1997, we acquired PharmaGenics, Inc., a company engaged in the research and development of products for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. We accounted for this acquisition, which was allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology, as a purchase. We allocated the aggregate purchase price of $27.5 million, plus acquisition costs of $2.5 million and assumed liabilities of $4.9 million, to the tangible and intangible assets we acquired from PharmaGenics based on their respective fair values (amounts in thousands): Equipment................................................... $ 208 Other assets................................................ 50 Completed technology (to be amortized over 3 years)......... 20,000 Goodwill (to be amortized over 3 years)..................... 12,293 Deferred tax asset.......................................... 2,900 Deferred tax liability (to be amortized over 3 years)....... (7,600) In-process technology....................................... 7,000 ------- Total..................................................... $34,851 =======
In 1998, we made an adjustment of $0.5 million in the amount of liabilities we assumed. The $7.0 million allocated to in-process research and development represents the value we assigned to PharmaGenics' programs that were still in the development stage and for which there was no alternative future use. We assigned values to all of PharmaGenics' programs (both complete and in-process) by selecting the maximum anticipated value of these programs and comparing them to the values of comparable technologies. In 1997, we recorded a one-time charge to operations for the amount of the purchase price allocated to in-process technology. The deferred tax liability of $7.6 million results from the temporary difference between the book and tax basis of the completed technology computed at a 38.0% incremental tax rate. NOTE E. OFF-BALANCE-SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS We periodically enter into interest rate swap contracts to reduce borrowing costs by effectively modifying the interest rate under our debt instruments. We generally enter into these contracts concurrently with the issuance of the debt they are intended to modify. The notional amount, interest payment and maturity dates of these contracts generally match the principal, interest payment and maturity dates of the related debt. As a result, any market risk or opportunity associated with a swap contract is fully offset by the opposite market impact on the related debt. We record payments that we make or receive under these contracts as interest expense. We had no outstanding interest rate hedge agreements at December 31, 1999. At December 31, 1998, we had one open interest rate hedge agreement for which the fair value was $1.3 million in favor of the bank. NOTE F. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Our trade receivables primarily represent amounts due from distributors, healthcare service providers, and companies and institutions engaged in research, development or production of pharmaceutical and GCS-56 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE F. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONTINUED) biopharmaceutical products. We perform credit evaluations of our customers on an ongoing basis and generally do not require collateral. We state accounts receivable at fair value after reflecting an allowance for doubtful accounts. This allowance was $19.3 million at December 31, 1999 and $13.9 million at December 31, 1998.

REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES ON MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND EQUITY INVESTMENTS We recorded gains of $2.0 million in 1999 and $3.4 million in 1998 upon the sale of our investment in shares of Techne common stock. We also recorded a $5.7 million charge in 1999 in connection with our investments in the common stock of Pharming Group N.V. and IntegraMed America, Inc. and a $3.4 million charge in 1998 in connection with our investment in the common stock of Celtrix Pharmaceuticals, Inc. because we considered the decline in the value of those investments to be other than temporary. In connection with these assessments, we concluded that evidence existed that the value of the investments would recover to at least our cost. This included continued positive progress in the issuers' scientific programs, ongoing activity in our collaborations with the issuers, and a lack of any substantial company-specific adverse events causing the declines in value. However, given the significance and duration of the declines as of the end of the applicable quarter, we concluded that it was unclear over what period such price recoveries would take place and that, accordingly, the positive evidence suggesting that the investments would recover to at least our purchase price was not sufficient to overcome the presumption that the current market price was the best indicator of the value of these investments.

GENZYME TRANSGENICS CORPORATION At December 31, 1999, we owned approximately 33% of the outstanding common stock of Genzyme Transgenics Corporation and record in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates our portion of its results. We refer to Genzyme Transgenics Corporation in this note as "GTC." Our portion of GTC's net losses was $7.1 million in 1999, $7.4 million in 1998, and $2.9 million in 1997. The fair market value of our investment in GTC common stock was $93.8 million on December 31, 1999 and $41.8 million on December 31, 1998. GCS-61 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE I.

AGREEMENTS WITH GTC We have a number of agreements with GTC, including the following: - services agreement under which GTC pays us for services provided by us, including treasury, data processing and laboratory support services. - sublease agreement under which we sublease a portion of one of our facilities in Framingham, Massachusetts; and - research and development agreement under which each of the parties performs research services for the other. During 1999, we received approximately $2.2 million from GTC under these agreements and we paid GTC approximately $1.2 million under the research and development agreement. At December 31, 1999, GTC owed Genzyme $0.5 million under these agreements. We have guaranteed GTC's obligations under a $17.5 million revolving credit facility and a $7.1 million term loan with a commercial bank. In exchange for this guarantee, GTC issued us a warrant to purchase up to 288,000 shares of GTC common stock at an exercise price of $4.875 per share. Of these shares, 192,000 are currently exercisable. GTC also issued us a warrant to purchase 145,000 shares of GTC common stock at an exercise price of $2.84375 per share in connection with our guarantee of GTC's obligations under a prior credit facility. All of the shares subject to this warrant are exercisable. We have also made a $6.3 million line of credit available to GTC. No amounts were outstanding under this credit line as of December 31, 1999. This credit line expires in March 2000. Upon expiration, GTC may GCS-62 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE I. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) convert any outstanding balance into a three-year term loan. The line of credit requires GTC to meet financial covenants similar to those under GTC's bank credit facility. ATIII LLC. In 1998, we formed ATIII LLC, a joint venture with GTC for the development and commercialization of transgenic recombinant human antithrombin III. We are funding 70% of the first $33.0 million in development costs, excluding facility costs, under this program and 50% of all development costs thereafter. We will pay 50% of all new facility costs to be incurred by ATIII LLC. All profits of ATIII LLC will be split equally; losses are allocated based on the amount of funding provided by each venturer. As our combined direct and indirect interest in ATIII LLC is in excess of 50%, we consolidate the results of ATIII LLC and record GTC's portion of the ATIII LLC's losses as minority interest. We allocate our ownership interest in ATIII LLC to Genzyme General. Under the agreement which established ATIII LLC joint venture in 1998, we initially owned a 3.7% interest in ATIII LLC and GTC owned a 96.3% interest. In accordance with the executed purchase agreement, GTC sold and assigned a 46.3% ownership interest in ATIII LLC to us so that we each own 50% of the venture. In connection with the purchase agreement, Genzyme has agreed to pay to GTC: - $2.5 million after the second consecutive quarter in which net sales of collaboration products for such quarter exceed $5 million; and - $10 million on the first full approval, if and when approved by the FDA of a major market country or by the European Union's European Medicines Evaluation Agency ("EMEA") of: - a biologics license application ("BLA") filed by ATIII LLC for the use of transgenic ATIII for the treatment of sepsis; or - an amendment to the BLA previously filed by ATIII LLC and approved by the FDA of a major market country or by the EMEA to add sepsis as an indication for transgenic ATIII. As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, none of the above milestone events have been achieved and no payments have been made. DYAX CORP. In March 1996, we entered into two license agreements with Dyax Corp. and Protein Engineering Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dyax, for Dyax's phage display technology. We pay annual license maintenance fees of $50,000 for this license. We will also make milestone payments and pay royalties on net sales of diagnostic and therapeutic products discovered, made or developed using the licensed technology. In September 1996, we subleased office and laboratory space in Cambridge, Massachusetts to Dyax. Current rent under this sublease is $53,943 per month. In October 1998, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Dyax to develop and commercialize one of Dyax's proprietary compounds for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. Dyax will fund the first $6.0 million in development costs, and the parties will split all subsequent development costs equally. In connection with that agreement, we made an investment of $3.0 million in the convertible preferred stock of Dyax and made a $3.0 million line of credit available to help Dyax fund its operations. To date, Dyax has not borrowed any money under the line of credit. We will make milestone payments to Dyax upon FDA approval of products that arise out of the collaboration, and we will share equally with Dyax all profits from the sale of these products.

(until October 1999)
------------------------------ (1) Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is a director of GelTex and one of our other directors is Chairman of GelTex. (2) Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is a director of Diacrin. In July 1997, together with StressGen Biotechnologies Corp. and the Canadian Medical Discoveries Fund, Inc. ("CMDF"), we established StressGen/Genzyme LLC, a joint venture to develop stress gene therapies for the treatment of cancer. Because CMDF had the right to require StressGen and Genzyme to purchase its membership interest in the joint venture, we recorded 50% of the net operating losses of the joint venture. As of December 31, 1998, our portion of the cumulative losses of StressGen/Genzyme LLC exceeded our initial capital contribution to the joint venture by $1.2 million and, as a result, we recorded the $1.2 million as a liability. For the period January through August 1999, we recorded an additional $0.8 million of losses from the joint venture increasing the liability related to the joint venture to $2.0 million. In August 1999, CMDF exercised its put right and StressGen and Genzyme were required to purchase its membership interest in the joint venture at an aggregate price of $10.0 million (Canadian) As a result, Genzyme was obligated to repurchase one-half of the CMDF's interest in the joint venture for approximately $3.9 million ($5.0 million (Canadian)). To record the exercise of the put option, we recorded: - a $1.9 million increase to our liability related to the joint venture, thus increasing the liability to $3.9 million; GCS-64 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE I. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) - a $0.9 million increase to our investment in joint venture to reflect our 50% interest in the net assets of the joint venture; and - a $1.0 million charge to equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates because, at that time, it was expected that the joint venture would be dissolved and the joint venture interest would have no value beyond the cash it held. We completed the repurchase of CMDF's interest in October 1999 by issuing to CMDF 617,200 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock at a price of $6.375 per share. The purchase price was calculated in accordance with the joint venture agreements based on the market price of Molecular Oncology Stock over a period prior to the repurchase. To record the repurchase, we increased stockholders' equity by $3.9 million to reflect the issuance of the shares of Molecular Oncology Stock and decreased our liability related to the joint venture by $3.9 million to zero. We agreed to dissolve StressGen/Genzyme LLC in December 1999 and in connection with the dissolution the joint venture received a cash distribution of $0.9 million which was equal to Genzyme's investment in the joint venture at that time. We do not present summary financial information for StressGen/Genzyme LLC because we do not consider the impact of its activities to be material to our operations for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. The following tables describe: - the amount of funding we have provided to each joint venture to date; - amounts due to us by each joint venture as of December 31, 1999 for services we provided on behalf of the joint venture, which we have recorded on our balance sheet as prepaids and other current assets; - our portion of the losses of each joint venture for the periods presented, which we have recorded as charges to equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates in our statement of operations; and - total net losses of each joint venture for the periods presented.

NOTE K. LONG-TERM DEBT AND LEASES LONG-TERM DEBT While Genzyme Corporation is responsible for repaying all long-term debt obligations, we allocate these obligations to our operating divisions for financial reporting purposes based on the intended use of the funds. GCS-67 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE K. LONG-TERM DEBT AND LEASES (CONTINUED) Our long-term debt consists of the following:
DECEMBER 31, ----------------------- 1999 1998 ---------- ---------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes................... $250,000 $250,000 Revolving credit facility maturing in November 2002..... 23,000 -- Revolving credit facility maturing in November 1999..... -- 100,000 5% convertible subordinated debentures.................. 22,622 21,559 6% convertible subordinated note........................ -- 12,579 Mortgage notes.......................................... -- 3,167 -------- -------- 295,622 387,305 -------- -------- Less current portion....................................

Over the next five years, we will be required to repay the following principal amounts on our long-term debt (excluding capital leases):
2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 AFTER 2004 ------------ ------------ ------------- ------------- ------------ -------------- $ 5.0 million..... $ -- $18.0 million $22.6 million $ -- $250.0 million
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY In November 1999, our $225 million revolving credit facility matured. We refinanced this facility with a $50.0 million revolving credit facility that matures in November 2000 and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility that matures in November 2002. When we refinanced the credit facility, $100.0 million was outstanding. Of this amount, we: - repaid the $82.0 million that was allocated to Genzyme General; and - refinanced the $18.0 million that was allocated to Genzyme Tissue Repair under the new credit facility. Loans under the new credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin pursuant to the terms and conditions defined in the credit agreement, and are collateralized by the stock of Genzyme Securities Corporation. This facility requires us to satisfy a number of financial covenants. At December 31, 1999, $23.0 million was outstanding under the facility that matures in November 2002. Of this amount, $5.0 million was allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology and $18.0 million was allocated to Genzyme Tissue Repair. The interest rate on these borrowings was approximately 6.8%. 5 1/4% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES In May 1998, we issued $250.0 million in principal of 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes due June 2005. After deducting the initial purchasers' discount and offering costs, we received $243.0 million in proceeds from this issuance. GCS-68 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE K. LONG-TERM DEBT AND LEASES (CONTINUED) We pay interest on the notes on June 1 and December 1 of each year and made the first interest payment in December 1998. The notes are convertible into one share of Genzyme General Stock, 0.10805 share of Molecular Oncology Stock and 0.17901 share of Surgical Products Stock at a price of $39.60 and contain anti-dilution adjustments. We may redeem all or part of the notes at our option after June 10, 2001 at the following prices (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount), plus accrued interest:
ON OR BEFORE 5/31/02 6/1/02--5/31/03 6/1/03--5/31/04 ON OR AFTER 6/1/04 -------------------- --------------- --------------- ------------------ 102.63%...... 101.75% 100.88% 100.00%
The fair value of these notes at December 31, 1999 was $317.5 million. 5% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTE In February 1997, we issued a 6% convertible subordinated note in a principal amount of $13.0 million. This note was convertible into shares of Tissue Repair Stock at a discount to the market value of that stock. We recorded charges to interest expense of $0.2 million in 1999, $0.5 million in 1998 and $1.1 million in 1997, to reflect the accretion to fair value of the conversion feature of this note. In 1998, the holder of this note converted $0.6 million in principal amount into 223,405 shares of Tissue Repair Stock. We paid $1.1 million in accrued interest in connection with these conversions. In 1999, the holder converted the remaining $12.4 million in principal amount into 7,257,573 shares of Tissue Repair Stock. We paid $0.5 million in accrued interest in connection with these conversions. As of December 31, 1999, there was no principal or interest remaining on this convertible note. 5% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES In August 1997, we issued $20.0 million in principal of 6% convertible subordinated debentures. These debentures were convertible into shares of Molecular Oncology Stock at a discount to the market value of that stock. We recorded charges to interest expense of $1.9 million in 1998 and $0.9 million in 1997 to reflect the accretion to fair value of the conversion feature of the 6% debentures. In accordance with the terms of these debentures, they were exchanged in August 1998 for $21.2 million in principal of 5% convertible subordinated debentures due August 2003. These debentures are convertible into shares of Genzyme General Stock. In November 1998 we reserved approximately 3.0 million Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares for issuance in connection with this exchange. In October 1999 we increased the number of Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares reserved in connection with this exchange by approximately 0.3 million. MORTGAGE NOTES In 1999, we repaid the remaining $3.1 million of principal and accrued interest of $0.1 million under our mortgage note due in December 2000. This obligation had been allocated to Genzyme General. GCS-69 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE K. LONG-TERM DEBT AND LEASES (CONTINUED) OPERATING LEASES We lease facilities and personal property under operating leases with terms in excess of one year. Our total expense under operating leases was:
1999 1998 1997 ---- ---- ---- $22.2 million....... $18.4 million $16.3 million
Over the next five years, we will be required to repay the following amounts under operating leases:
2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 AFTER 2004 -------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- -------------- $17.5 million....... $17.0 million $15.7 million $13.6 million $13.1 million $119.9 million
In June 1992, one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a 65-year land lease with an unaffiliated lessor. Our expenses under this lease were $1.5 million in 1999 and 1998 and $1.3 million in 1997. Our rent under this lease increases every five years based on the Consumer Price Index or, if higher, 3% per year. NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY COMMON STOCK We have four series of common stock--Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock--which we refer to as "tracking stock." Unlike typical common stock, each of our tracking stocks is designed to track the financial performance of a specific subset of our business operations and its related allocated assets, rather than operations and assets of our entire company. The chief mechanism intended to cause our tracking stock to "track" the financial performance of a corresponding division are special provisions in our charter governing dividends and distributions. The provisions governing dividends provide that our board of directors has discretion to decide if and when to declare dividends, subject to certain limitations. To the extent that the following amount does not exceed the funds of Genzyme Corporation that would be legally available for dividends under Massachusetts law, the dividend limit for a stock corresponding to a division is the greater of: - the amount that would be legally available for dividends under Massachusetts law if the division were a separate corporation; or - the amount by which the greater of the fair value of the division's allocated net assets, or its allocated paid-in capital plus allocated earnings, exceeds its corresponding stock's par value, preferred stock preferences and debt obligations. Within these parameters and other, general limits under our charter and Massachusetts law, the amount of any dividend payment will be at the board of directors' discretion. To date, we have never paid or declared a cash dividend on shares of any of our series of common stock, nor do we anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. Unless declared, no dividends accrue on our tracking stocks. Our charter also requires that distributions be made to holders of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock or Tissue Repair Stock if all or substantially all of the assets allocated to that stock's corresponding division are sold to a third party. This mandatory distribution can be in the form of a GCS-70 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) dividend, a redemption of the division's related tracking stock or an exchange of that tracking stock for Genzyme General Stock, as chosen by our board of directors in its discretion. The distribution, if by dividend or redemption, must equal in value the net after-tax proceeds received from the sale. If our board of directors chooses to make the distribution by issuing Genzyme General Stock in exchange for the selling division's related tracking stock, then the exchange must be effected at a 10% premium to the corresponding tracking stock's average market price following announcement of the sale. While tracking stock is designed to reflect a division's performance, it is common stock of the entire company. Therefore, a holder of tracking stock is a common stockholder subject to risks of investing in the business, assets and liabilities of Genzyme as a whole. For instance, the assets allocated to any division are nonetheless subject to company-wide claims of creditors, product liability plaintiffs and stockholder litigation. Also, in the event of a Genzyme liquidation, insolvency or similar event, a holder of tracking stock would have no direct claim against the assets allocated to the corresponding tracked division; a holder of tracking stock would only have the rights of a common stockholder in the combined assets of Genzyme, subject also to the Genzyme charter's allocation of liquidation units as discussed below under the subheading "Liquidation Units." RIGHTS OF COMMON STOCK VOTING RIGHTS Genzyme General Stock is entitled to one vote per share, which is never adjusted. However, the votes per share of our other series of common stock are adjusted every two years. Specifically, on January 1, 2001 and every second anniversary thereafter, the vote per share to which each series is entitled is recalculated based on that stock's fair market value divided by the fair market value of a share of Genzyme General Stock, with "fair market value" meaning the average closing price over the 20 consecutive trading days beginning the 30th trading day preceding the January 1st adjustment date. During the 2000 fiscal year, each series of common stock is entitled the following vote per share:
SERIES VOTE PER SHARE ------ -------------- Genzyme General Stock....................................... 1.00 Molecular Oncology Stock.................................... 0.08 Surgical Products Stock..................................... 0.61 Tissue Repair Stock......................................... 0.06
LIQUIDATION UNITS If we were to dissolve, liquidate or wind up our affairs, other than as part of a merger, business combination or sale of substantially all of our assets, our stockholders would receive any remaining assets according to the percentage of total liquidation units that they hold. Each series of our common stock is entitled to the following liquidation units:
SERIES UNITS ------ -------- Genzyme General Stock....................................... 100 Molecular Oncology Stock.................................... 25 Surgical Products Stock..................................... 61 Tissue Repair Stock......................................... 58
GCS-71 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) Although we adjust liquidation units to prevent dilution in the event of some subdivisions, combinations or distributions of common stock, we do not adjust them to reflect changes in the relative market value or performance of the tracked divisions. PREFERRED STOCK Our charter permits us to issue shares of preferred stock at any time in one or more series. Our board of directors will establish the preferences, voting powers, qualifications, and special or relative rights or privileges of any series of preferred stock before it is issued. STOCK RIGHTS Under our shareholder rights plan, each outstanding share of Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock also represents one preferred stock purchase right for that series of stock. When the stock purchase rights become exercisable, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to purchase the following: - Genzyme General stock right: 0.01 share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $300.00; - Molecular Oncology stock right: 0.01 share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $26.00; - Surgical Products stock right: 0.01 share of Series D Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $150.00; and - Tissue Repair stock right: 0.01 share of Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $26.00. A stock purchase right becomes exercisable either: - ten days after our board of directors announces that a third party has become the owner of 15% or more of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock combined, or - ten business days after a third party announces or initiates a tender or exchange offer that would result in that party owning 15% or more of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock combined. In either case, the board of directors can extend the ten-day delay. These stock purchase rights expire in March 2009. STOCK OFFERINGS In 1997, we sold 4,000,000 shares of Tissue Repair Stock for net proceeds of $29.0 million. DIRECTORS' DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN Each member of our board of directors who is not also one of our officers or employees may defer receipt of all or a portion of the cash compensation payable to him or her as a director and receive either cash or stock in the future. Under this plan, the director may defer his or her compensation until his or her services as a director cease or until another date specified by the director. GCS-72 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) Under a deferral agreement, a participant indicates the percentage of deferral to allocate to cash and stock, upon which a cash deferral account and a stock deferral account is established. The cash account bears interest at the rate paid on 90-day Treasury bills with interest payable quarterly. The stock account is for amounts invested in hypothetical shares of Genzyme General Stock, Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock or Tissue Repair Stock. Under the deferral agreement, a participant directs us how to allocate amounts among each series of stock. These amounts will be converted into shares quarterly at the average closing price of the stock for all trading days during the quarter, for each series of stock. Distributions are paid in a lump sum or in annual installments for up to five years. Payments begin the year following a director's termination of service or, subject to certain restrictions, a year elected by the participant. As of December 31, 1999, one of the six eligible directors was participating in this plan. We have reserved the following numbers of shares to cover distributions credited to stock accounts under the plan: - 50,000 shares of Genzyme General Stock; - 50,000 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock; - 50,000 shares of Surgical Products Stock; and - 100,000 shares of Tissue Repair Stock. We had not made any distributions under this plan as of December 31, 1999. EQUITY PLANS At December 31, 1999, we had reserved the following numbers of shares for issuance under our 1990 Equity Incentive Plan, 1997 Equity Incentive Plan, 1998 Director Stock Option Plan, and 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan: - 13,126,000 shares of Genzyme General Stock; - 4,011,000 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock; - 3,800,000 shares of Surgical Products Stock; and - 5,544,000 shares of Tissue Repair Stock. STOCK OPTIONS The following number of shares are currently authorized and available for grant under our 1990 Equity Incentive Plan and 1997 Equity Incentive Plan: - 24,500,000 shares of Genzyme General Stock; - 3,500,000 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock; - 3,200,000 shares of Surgical Products Stock; and - 5,300,000 shares of Tissue Repair Stock. GCS-73 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) The purpose of these two plans is to attract and retain key employees and consultants, provide an incentive for them to achieve long-range performance goals, and enable them to participate in our long-term growth. Under these two plans, we grant stock options with exercise prices not less than fair market value at date of grant. The plans provide for the grant of stock appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted stock and stock units. Each of these instruments has a maximum term of ten years and generally vest over four years. The Board-appointed compensation committee determines the terms and conditions of each award, including who is eligible to receive awards, the form of payment of the exercise price, the number of shares granted and the exercise date. No incentive stock options may be granted under the 1997 plan. After March 15, 2000, no incentive stock options may be granted under the 1990 plan. The following number of shares are currently authorized and available for grant under our 1998 Director Stock Option Plan: - 340,000 shares of Genzyme General Stock; - 140,000 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock; - 100,000 shares of Surgical Products Stock; and - 200,000 shares of Tissue Repair Stock. Options under our 1998 Director Stock Option Plan are automatically granted with an exercise price at fair market value to non-employee members of our board of directors when they are elected or re-elected as directors. These options expire ten years after the initial grant date and vest on the date of each annual board of directors meeting following the date of grant.

We do not recognize compensation expense for options granted and shares purchased under the provisions of these plans for options granted to employees with an exercise price greater than or equal to fair market value. The following table sets forth our net income (loss) data as if compensation expense for our stock-based compensation plans was determined in accordance with SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based GCS-78 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) Compensation," based on the fair value at the grant dates of the awards. The resulting compensation expense would be allocated to each division in accordance with our allocation policies:

WARRANTS In 1997, we sold warrants to purchase a total of 120,000 shares of Genzyme General Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.0 million (Canadian). All of these warrants were cancelled in August 1999 when the Canadian Medical Discoveries Fund exercised its right to require us to repurchase the fund's interest in StressGen/Genzyme LLC. In 1992 and 1995, we issued warrants which, if exercised between December 16, 1994 and July 10, 1997, would have entitled the holders to purchase two shares of Genzyme General Stock and .0675 share of Tissue Repair Stock. If the holders had exercised the warrants after July 10, 1997, they would have received two shares of Genzyme General Stock and .0975 share of Tissue Repair Stock. We granted these warrants in exchange for the receipt of options to purchase the callable common stock of Neozyme II Corporation and in connection with our acquisition of IG Laboratories, Inc.

When we acquired PharmaGenics in 1997, we assumed a warrant that expires in 2001. This warrant is exercisable into 9,563 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock at $8.04 per share. DESIGNATED SHARES Designated shares are authorized shares of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock that are not issued and outstanding, but which our board of directors may issue, sell or distribute without allocating the proceeds or benefits to the division that the series of stock tracks. Designated shares are not eligible to receive dividends and cannot be voted by Genzyme. We create designated shares when we transfer cash or other assets from Genzyme General to Genzyme Molecular Oncology, Genzyme Surgical Products or Genzyme Tissue Repair or from other interdivision transactions. Our board of directors may issue designated shares: - as a stock dividend to the holders of Genzyme General Stock; - by selling the shares in a public or private sale and allocating all of the proceeds to Genzyme General; and - when convertible securities are converted, the proceeds of which will be allocated to Genzyme General. DISTRIBUTION OF DESIGNATED SHARES We will distribute designated shares of Molecular Oncology Stock, Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock each year to holders of Genzyme General Stock if the number of designated shares of a particular series exceeds 10% of the number of shares of that series issued and outstanding as of the following dates: - November 30, 2000 for Molecular Oncology Stock; - June 30, 2000 for Surgical Products Stock; and - May 31, 2000 for Tissue Repair Stock. GCS-81 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) We will not distribute designated shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise or conversion of Genzyme General convertible securities and the number of designated shares our board of directors may reserve for sale not later than six months after these dates. Any proceeds from the sale of designated shares will be allocated to Genzyme General. Designated share activity is summarized in the following table:

------------------------ (1) Assumes that a public offering of Molecular Oncology Stock does not occur prior to June 18, 2000. If such an offering is completed prior to that date, the number of Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares reserved for issuance in connection with this transaction will decrease based on a formula set forth in our charter. In October 1999, we adjusted the number of Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares reserved in connection with the exchange in August 1998 of 6% debentures convertible into Molecular Oncology Stock into 5% debentures convertible into Genzyme General Stock. We made this adjustment based on the fair market value of Molecular Oncology Stock on October 16, 1999 in accordance with the terms of the exchange established by our board. GCS-82 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) In June 1999, we distributed Genzyme Surgical Products designated shares to holders of Genzyme General Stock. In November 1998, we distributed Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares to holders of Genzyme General Stock. Prior to our acquisition of PharmaGenics, we made a credit facility available to fund PharmaGenics' operating costs pending completion of the acquisition. When the acquisition was completed, the $2,450,000 drawn by PharmaGenics under this facility became a liability allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. In September 1998, our board of directors approved the exchange of that credit facility to Genzyme General, plus accrued interest of $246,080, for Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares based on the fair market value of the Molecular Oncology Stock. We reclassified the amount of the note and the accrued interest to division equity upon the exchange. In July 1997, we distributed Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares to holders of Genzyme General Stock and reserved approximately 394,000 Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares for issuance upon the exercise of Genzyme General Stock options and warrants outstanding on the record date. We had an option to allocate up to $30.0 million in cash from Genzyme General to Genzyme Tissue Repair, at $10.00 per Genzyme Tissue Repair designated share. In June 1997, our board of directors allocated $10.0 million in cash from Genzyme General to Genzyme Tissue Repair in exchange for 1,000,000 Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares. This option has expired. INTERDIVISIONAL FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS GENZYME MOLECULAR ONCOLOGY In 1997, our board of directors made $25.0 million of Genzyme General's cash available to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. This arrangement was subject to dollar-for dollar reduction by the proceeds of outside financing allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. When Genzyme issued $20.0 million in principal of 6% convertible subordinated debentures in August 1997 and allocated the proceeds to Genzyme Molecular Oncology, the amount available under the arrangement was reduced to $5.0 million. In September 1998, Genzyme Molecular Oncology drew the remaining $5.0 million available under this arrangement in exchange for Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares. In August 1998, our board of directors made an additional $30.0 million of Genzyme General's cash available to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. Under the terms of this arrangement, Genzyme Molecular Oncology may draw down funds as needed each quarter in exchange for Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares based on the fair market value of Molecular Oncology Stock (as defined in our charter) at the time of the draw. As of December 31, 1999, Genzyme Molecular Oncology had not yet drawn any funds from this arrangement. GENZYME TISSUE REPAIR In October 1996, our board of directors made $20.0 million of Genzyme General's cash available to Genzyme Tissue Repair in order for Genzyme Tissue Repair to fund its obligations under its joint venture with Diacrin. Under this arrangement, Genzyme Tissue Repair may draw down funds as needed each quarter in exchange for Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares based on the fair market value of Tissue GCS-83 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE L. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) Repair Stock (as defined in our charter) at the time of the draw. Genzyme Tissue Repair made a $7.0 million draw under this line in 1997. In May 1998, our board of directors increased the amount committed under this arrangement from $13.0 million to $50.0 million. Genzyme Tissue Repair made a $5.0 million draw in February 1999. In May 1999, the amount available under this arrangement was reduced by $25.0 million in connection with the reallocation of our ownership interest in Diacrin/Genzyme LLC from Genzyme Tissue Repair to Genzyme General. NOTE M. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS Our revenues from research and development agreements with related parties include the following:

We allocate all of our research and development agreements with unconsolidated affiliates to our operating divisions based on the business to which the research relates. GENZYME TRANSGENICS CORPORATION. Note I., "Investments," contains disclosure regarding our relationship with Genzyme Transgenics Corporation. JOINT VENTURES. Note I., "Investments," contains disclosure regarding the following joint ventures: - RenaGel LLC; - BioMarin/Genzyme LLC; - Pharming/Genzyme LLC; - Diacrin/Genzyme LLC; - ATIII LLC; and - StressGen/Genzyme LLC. Genzyme Development Partners, L.P. was formed in September 1989 to develop, produce and derive income from the sale of the Sepra products. We refer to Genzyme Development Partners as GDP. One of our wholly-owned subsidiaries is the general partner of GDP. In September 1989, we also formed a joint venture with GDP to manufacture and market the Sepra products in the United States and Canada for use in human clinical trials or human clinical procedures. We refer to this joint venture as GVII. We consolidate GVII for financial statement purposes and allocate it to Genzyme Surgical Products. We have the option to purchase all of the outstanding partnership interests in GDP for approximately $26.0 million in cash, Genzyme General Stock or Surgical Products Stock or a combination of cash and either series of stock, plus future royalty payments on the sale of the Sepra products. We can exercise this option during the 90-day period beginning on August 31, 2000. This option will be accelerated if at any GCS-84 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE M. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS (CONTINUED) time prior to August 31, 2000 GDP receives distributions from GVII of at least $5.5 million. While we had no obligation to fund the research and development activities of GDP, we elected to fund the following amounts:
1999 1998 1997 ------------ ------------ ------------ $ 9.0 million..... $8.4 million $7.3 million
We currently intend to provide approximately $6.0 million of funding to GDP for the Sepra programs through 2000, based on the 2000 budget for the programs. Future funding commitments for the Sepra development programs will be evaluated on an annual basis. We believe, however, that additional funds will be required to complete the development, clinical testing and commercialization of GDP's products. NOTE N. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES We periodically become subject to legal proceedings and claims arising in connection with our business. We do not believe that there were any asserted claims against us as of December 31, 1999 which, if adversely decided, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

As a result of uncertainty surrounding our ability to realize certain favorable tax attributes that primarily relate to capital losses from the purchase of in-process research and development, we placed GCS-86 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE O. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) valuation allowances of $19.0 million in 1999 and $16.7 million in 1998 against otherwise recognizable deferred tax assets. Our ability to realize the benefit of net deferred tax assets is dependent on our generating sufficient taxable income before loss carryforwards expire. While it is not assured, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize all of our net deferred tax assets. The amount we can realize, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced. For U.S. income tax purposes, we had net operating loss carryforwards of $15.9 million in 1999 and $19.6 million in 1998. Our net operating loss carryforwards expire between 2003 and 2019. Prior to expiration, our ability to use these carryforwards may be limited under U.S. tax laws, specifically Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Approximately, $10.6 million of the tax carryforwards we have available for federal income tax purposes relate to exercises of non-qualified stock options and disqualifying dispositions of incentive stock options. The tax benefits from stock exercises under these plans, if realized, will be credited to additional paid-in capital. NOTE P. BENEFIT PLANS We have a 401(k) plan that covers nearly all of our employees. We also maintain a separate 401(k) plan for the former employees of Deknatel Snowden Pencer, Inc., which we acquired in 1996. These plans permit qualifying employees to make contributions up to a specified percentage of their compensation, and we match a portion of those contributions. We contributed the following amounts to the 401(k) plans:
1999 1998 1997 ------------ ------------ ------------ Allocated to Genzyme General.......... $3.9 million $3.0 million $1.1 million Allocated to Genzyme Surgical 0.8 million Products............................ 0.8 million 0.8 million Allocated to Genzyme Tissue Repair.... 0.1 million 0.1 million 0.2 million ------------ ------------ ------------ $4.8 million $3.9 million $2.1 million ============ ============ ============
We also maintain defined-benefit pension plans for qualifying employees of a number of our foreign subsidiaries and qualifying former employees of Deknatel Snowden Pencer. We fund pension costs as they are accrued. Our expense related to these plans was:
1999 1998 1997 ------------ ------------ ------------ Allocated to Genzyme General.......... $1.3 million $0.8 million $0.8 million Allocated to Genzyme Surgical 0.5 million Products............................ 0.3 million 0.3 million ------------ ------------ ------------ $1.8 million $1.1 million $1.1 million ============ ============ ============

Our results of operations are highly dependent on sales of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- and Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzymes. Sales of these products represented 70% of product revenue in 1999, 67% of product revenue in 1998, and 63% of product revenue in 1997. We sell these products directly to physicians, hospitals and treatment centers as well as through unaffiliated distributors. Sales to one distributor represented 20% of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- and Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme revenues in 1999, 19% of these revenues in 1998, and 18% of these revenues in 1997. We believe that our credit risk associated with trade receivables is mitigated as a result of the fact that we GCS-92 GENZYME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE Q. SEGMENT INFORMATION (CONTINUED) sell these products to a large number of customers in a number of different industries and over a broad geographic area. NOTE R. QUARTERLY RESULTS (UNAUDITED)

As a result of the issuance of additional shares by GTC, our ownership interest in GTC decreased from 33% to 28%. ACQUISITION OF BIOMATRIX, INC. AND FORMATION OF GENZYME BIOSURGERY In March 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire Biomatrix, Inc. Upon the effectiveness of our Registration Statement on Form S-4 and completion of the merger, we will form a new operating division called Genzyme Biosurgery and create a new series of common stock that is intended to reflect its value and track its performance. We refer to this stock as "Biosurgery Stock." In connection with the merger, and upon Genzyme shareholder approval, the assets and liabilities allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair will be re-allocated to Genzyme Biosurgery and shares of Surgical Products Stock and Tissue Repair Stock will be exchanged for Biosurgery Stock. We will account for the acquisition of Biomatrix as a purchase. Biomatrix stockholders will receive $37.00 in cash, one share of Biosurgery Stock or a combination of cash and stock for each share of Biomatrix common stock they hold. The merger agreement provides that we will pay cash for up to 28.38% of the outstanding shares of Biomatrix common stock that receive merger consideration, or up to approximately $245.0 million. Holders of Surgical Products Stock will receive 0.6060 share of Biosurgery Stock in exchange for each share of Surgical Products Stock they hold and holders of Tissue Repair Stock will receive 0.3352 share of Biosurgery Stock in exchange for each share of Tissue Repair Stock they hold. REGISTRATION STATEMENT In March 2000, we filed a prospectus with the SEC covering the offering of 3,000,000 shares of Molecular Oncology Stock (plus 450,000 shares issuable upon exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option). The proceeds of the offering were to be used by Genzyme Molecular Oncology to fund research, pre-clinical and clinical development programs, to repay existing indebtedness, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. GCS-94 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF GENZYME CORPORATION: In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, of stockholders' equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Genzyme Corporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. The consolidated financial statements for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 have been revised, as described in Note A. /s/ PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS LLP Boston, Massachusetts February 23, 2000, except for the information in Note A, as to which the date is October 11, 2000 GCS-95 GENZYME CORPORATION SCHEDULE II - VALUATION AND QUALIFYING ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999, 1998 AND 1997
