GG-1 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION COMBINED SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA Genzyme General is our operating division that 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. A series of our common stock, Genzyme General Division Common Stock (which we refer to as "Genzyme General Stock") is designed to reflect the value and track the performance of this division. Genzyme General Stock is common stock of Genzyme Corporation, not of Genzyme General; Genzyme General is a division, not a company or legal entity, and therefore does not and cannot issue stock. The chief mechanisms intended to cause Genzyme General Stock to "track" the financial performance of Genzyme General 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 Genzyme General into the determination of the amount available to pay dividends on Genzyme General Stock. 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. 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 Genzyme General Stock are based on the income or losses attributable to Genzyme General, we include financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of Genzyme General to aid investors in evaluating its performance. The following combined selected financial data reflect the results of operations and financial position of the operations and assets we have allocated to Genzyme General and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Genzyme General and accompanying notes. On June 28, 1999, we created of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme, distributed Surgical Products Stock, and modified the way that we allocate income and losses to our series of stock. These combined selected financial data reflect the results and financial position of the operations and assets we have allocated to Genzyme General as if the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products had been accounted for as a separate division for all periods presented. Although the results of Genzyme General for all periods presented no longer include the results of Genzyme Surgical Products, this does not impact the historical allocation of Genzyme's earnings among its series of common stock. Through June 27, 1999, the losses of Genzyme Surgical Products were allocated to Genzyme General Stock. From June 28, 1999, the losses of Genzyme Surgical Products were no longer included in the determination of income allocated to Genzyme General Stock. 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. The greater segregation of assets, liabilities and earnings or losses resulting from the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products is a trend that we do not expect to continue. We plan to combine Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair 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 GG-2 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION COMBINED SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (CONTINUED) tracking stock or change our earnings allocation methodology. However, at the present time, we have no plans to do so. COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS DATA

GG-4 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF GENZYME GENERAL'S 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" for Genzyme General and Genzyme Corporation included in this annual report. You should consider carefully each of these risks and uncertainties in evaluating the financial condition and results of operations of Genzyme General and Genzyme. We prepare the financial statements of Genzyme General in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We present financial information and accounting policies specific to Genzyme General in the accompanying combined financial statements. We present financial information and accounting policies relevant to the corporation and its operating divisions taken as a whole in our consolidated financial statements. You should read the consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements of Genzyme General. Note A., "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our accompanying consolidated financial statements contains our accounting policies. Genzyme General Division Common Stock, which we refer to as "Genzyme General Stock," is a series of our common stock that is designed to reflect the value and track the performance of Genzyme General. The chief mechanisms intended to cause Genzyme General Stock to "track" the financial performance of Genzyme General 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 Genzyme General into the determination of the amount available to pay dividends on Genzyme General Stock. 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. 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 Genzyme General Stock are based on the income or losses attributable to Genzyme General, we include financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of Genzyme General to aid investors in evaluating its performance. While Genzyme General Stock is designed to reflect Genzyme General's performance, it is common stock of Genzyme Corporation and not Genzyme General; Genzyme General is a division, not a company or legal entity, and therefore does not and cannot issue stock. Consequently, holders of Genzyme General Stock have no specific rights to assets allocated to Genzyme General. Genzyme Corporation continues to hold title to all of the assets allocated to Genzyme General 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 Genzyme General 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 Genzyme GG-5 General Stock and other tracking stockholders would only have the rights of common stockholders in the combined assets of Genzyme. Our charter requires us to manage and account for transactions between Genzyme General and our other 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 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. In June 1999, we established Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. Genzyme General transferred $150.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, and certain other assets, to Genzyme Surgical Products in connection with the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. The business of Genzyme Surgical Products previously operated as a business unit of Genzyme General. These financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows allocated to Genzyme General as if the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products had been separately accounted for as its own division of the corporation for all periods presented. By excluding Genzyme Surgical Products' results of operations, and therefore its operating losses, from Genzyme General's results, the net income of Genzyme General has increased for all periods presented. Genzyme General's tax provision also increased because the tax benefits associated with Genzyme Surgical Products losses are not reflected in Genzyme General's tax provision. Although such benefits are allocated to Genzyme General Stock in the determination of Genzyme's earnings allocations, those benefits do not enter into the determination of Genzyme General's tax provision under generally accepted accounting principles. The impact on Genzyme General's net income of the exclusion of Genzyme Surgical Products' results of operations is as follows (in thousands):
1999 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- Genzyme Surgical Products net loss.......................... $48,037 $49,856 $29,740 Tax benefit................................................. (16,128) (17,936) (10,112) ------- ------- ------- Increase in Genzyme General's net income.................... $31,909 $31,920 $19,628 ======= ======= =======
These increases represented 22%, 24% and 26% of Genzyme General's net income for 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The greater segregation of assets, liabilities and earnings or losses resulting from the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products is a trend that we do not expect to continue. We plan to combine Genzyme Surgical Products and Genzyme Tissue Repair 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. At this time, we have no plans to create new series of tracking stock or to change our earnings allocation methodology. We present earnings per share and earnings allocation data for Genzyme General Stock in our consolidated financial statements. We present financial information and accounting policies specific to Genzyme General in the accompanying combined financial statements. We present financial information and accounting policies relevant to the corporation and its operating divisions taken as a whole in our consolidated financial statements. You should, therefore, read this discussion and analysis of Genzyme General's financial position and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes of Genzyme General, the discussion and analysis of Genzyme's financial position and results of operations, and the consolidated financial statements and related notes of Genzyme, all of which are included in this annual report. GG-6 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion summarizes the key factors our management believes are necessary for an understanding of Genzyme General's financial statements. The components of Genzyme General's combined statements of operations are described in the following table:

GG-7 The following table sets forth Genzyme General's product and service revenue on a segment basis:
99/98 98/97 INCREASE/ INCREASE/ (DECREASE) (DECREASE) 1999 1998 1997 % CHANGE % CHANGE -------- -------- -------- ---------- ---------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) Therapeutics.............................. $488,705 $413,645 $332,712 18% 24% Diagnostic Products....................... 57,971 65,683 66,288 (12)% (1)% Other: Product revenue......................... 24,855 30,399 30,092 (18)% 1% Service revenue......................... 57,223 55,445 55,835 3% (1)% -------- -------- -------- Total product and service revenue......... $628,754 $565,172 $484,927 11% 17% ======== ======== ========
THERAPEUTICS Genzyme General's increase in product revenue during both periods is largely due to increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, which was attributed to the identification of new Gaucher disease patients throughout the world and strong international sales. We have provided information regarding the growth in sales of Genzyme General's Gaucher disease therapies during both periods in the following table:
99/98 98/97 INCREASE/ INCREASE/ (DECREASE) (DECREASE) 1999 1998 1997 % CHANGE % CHANGE -------- -------- -------- ---------- ---------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) Sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme... $478,538 $411,060 $332,712 16% 24% % of total product revenue................ 84% 81% 78%
Genzyme General's results of operations are highly dependent on sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme and a reduction in revenue from sales of this product would adversely affect its 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. Genzyme General is aware of companies that have initiated efforts to develop competitive products and other companies may do so in the future. Therapeutics revenue for each period also includes sales of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone, which is an adjunctive diagnostic tool for well differentiated thyroid cancer. DIAGNOSTIC PRODUCTS The decrease in diagnostic products revenue for 1999 as compared to 1998 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 Corp. in July 1999. Diagnostic products revenue includes royalties on product sales by Techne's biotechnology group. OTHER Other revenue for each period include sales of: - lipids and peptides for drug delivery; and - genetic testing services. GG-8 INTERNATIONAL PRODUCT AND SERVICE REVENUE A substantial portion of Genzyme General's revenue was generated outside of the United States, as described in the following table. Most of these revenues were attributable to sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme.
99/98 98/97 INCREASE/ INCREASE/ (DECREASE) (DECREASE) 1999 1998 1997 % CHANGE % CHANGE -------- -------- -------- ---------- ---------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) International product and service revenue................................. $273,851 $248,363 $217,777 10% 14% % of total product and service revenue.... 44% 44% 45%
MARGINS
99/98 98/97 INCREASE/ INCREASE/ (DECREASE) (DECREASE) 1999 1998 1997 % CHANGE % CHANGE -------- -------- -------- ---------- ---------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PERCENTAGE DATA) Product margin............................ $456,406 $370,925 $282,866 23% 31% % of product revenue.................. 80% 73% 66% Service margin............................ 21,586 21,205 20,384 2% 4% % of service revenue.................. 38% 38% 37% Total gross margin........................ 477,992 392,130 303,250 22% 29% % of total product and service revenue............................. 76% 69% 63%
Genzyme General provides a broad range of healthcare products and services. As a result, Genzyme General's 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 diagnostic products. During 1998, Genzyme General recorded a $14.8 million charge to cost of products sold to write down excess inventory used to make Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme. Without the effect of this charge, Genzyme General's product margin for 1998 would have been 76% and its total gross margin during that period would have been 72%. Excluding the charge described above, the increases in product margin and total gross margin during each period are 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 each period as a result of increases in sales of DNA and cancer testing services. OPERATING EXPENSES 1999 AS COMPARED TO 1998 The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 1999 as compared to 1998 is related to: - increased staffing to support the growth in several of Genzyme General's product lines; - 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 receivables and self-pay receivables during 1999; - costs associated with the market introduction of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone in January 1999; and GG-9 - increased expenditures to support the increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. The increase in research and development expense in 1999 as compared to 1998 is 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. 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 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 expenses in 1998 as compared to 1997 was related to: - increased sales and marketing costs related to the product launch of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone; and - increased expenditures to support the increased sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme. The increase in research and development expense in 1998 as compared to 1997 was primarily attributable to $12.0 million in costs resulting from the consolidation of the results of ATIII LLC, for which there were no comparable amounts in 1997.

1999 AS COMPARED TO 1998 EQUITY IN NET LOSS OF UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES Genzyme General records in equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates its portion of the results of its joint ventures with GelTex, BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc., Pharming Group, N.V. and Diacrin, Inc. Genzyme General also records a portion of the results of Genzyme Transgenics in equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates. Genzyme General's equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates increased in 1999 as compared to 1998 as a result of: - increased losses from RenaGel LLC, our joint venture with GelTex to develop and commercialize Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules; - increased losses from our joint venture with BioMarin to develop and commercialize Aldurazyme(TM) enzyme for the treatment of mucopolysaccharidosis-I, which was formed in September 1998; - increased losses from our joint venture with Pharming to develop a therapy for Pompe disease, which was formed in October 1998; and - the reallocation of our joint venture with Diacrin from Genzyme Tissue Repair to Genzyme General in May 1999. These increases were offset in part by decreased losses from Genzyme Transgenics for both periods. GAIN ON AFFILIATE SALE OF STOCK Genzyme Transgenics Corporation ("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%. GG-11 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 Genzyme General's combined direct and indirect interest in ATIII LLC is in excess of 50%, it consolidates the results of ATIII LLC and records GTC's portion of the ATIII LLC's losses as minority interest. ATIII LLC had losses of $12.2 million in 1999, of which GTC's portion was $3.7 million. In 1998, ATIII LLC has losses of $12.0 million, of which GTC's portion was $4.3 million. GAIN ON SALE OF INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY SECURITIES Genzyme General recorded gains of $2.0 million in January 1999 and $3.4 million in December 1998 upon the sales of shares of Techne Corporation common stock that it received when it sold its research products business to Techne Corporation. GAIN ON SALE OF PRODUCT LINE In July 1999, Genzyme General recorded a gain of $0.5 million in connection with the sale of its immunochemistry product lines to an operating unit of Sybron Laboratory Products Corporation. In June 1999, Genzyme General recorded a gain of $7.5 million representing the payment of a note receivable that it received as partial consideration for the sale of Genetic Design, Inc. in 1996. Genzyme General had previously fully reserved the amount of this note because it considered the repayment of the note to be uncertain. In July 1998, Genzyme General recorded a gain of $31.2 million in connection with the sale of its research products business to Techne. CHARGE FOR IMPAIRED INVESTMENTS Genzyme General recorded a $5.7 million charge in 1999 in connection with its 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 its 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 its cost. This included continued positive progress in the issuers' scientific programs, ongoing activity in Genzyme General's collaborations with the issuer, 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 Genzyme General's purchase price was not sufficient to overcome the presumption that the current market price was the best indicator of the value of these investments. OTHER In December 1999, Genzyme General recorded a net gain of $14.4 million upon receipt of a payment associated with the termination of an agreement to acquire Cell Genesys, Inc. GG-12 INVESTMENT INCOME Investment income increased in both periods because our cash balances were higher. The increase in cash balances was attributable to the 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 Genzyme General's interest expense increased in both periods, primarily as a result of the issuance of the 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes. TAX PROVISION

Genzyme General's tax rates for all periods vary from the U.S. statutory tax rate as a result of its: - 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. GG-13 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At December 31, 1999, Genzyme General had cash, cash-equivalents, and short- and long-term investments of $513.9 million, a decrease of $42.2 million from December 31, 1998. Genzyme General generated $284.8 million in cash from its operations in 1999. Genzyme General's investing activities utilized $192.7 million in cash in 1999. Investing activities generated: - $5.0 million from the sale of Genzyme General's immunochemistry product line; - $11.1 million from the sale of Techne common stock; and - $8.4 million from the payment of a note issued in connection with the sale of Genetic Design. Investing activities used: - $93.4 million for Genzyme General's net purchases of investments; - $52.9 million to fund capital expenditures; - $36.4 million to fund Genzyme General's investments in joint ventures; - $6.5 million to fund its acquisition of Peptimmune; - $10.0 million to GelTex to make a milestone payment upon the first anniversary of FDA approval of Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules; - $6.6 million to Genzyme Transgenics for the purchase of preferred stock; - $10.0 million to Biomarin for the purchase of shares of common stock; and - $3.4 million to Genovo, Inc. for the purchase of shares of preferred stock. In 1999, $59.2 million in cash proceeds were allocated to Genzyme General from the exercise of options to purchase shares of Genzyme General Stock and shares of Genzyme General Stock issued under our employee stock plans. Genzyme General's financing activities used the following cash during 1999: - $85.0 million to repay short-term debt and capital lease obligations; and - $49.4 million paid to Genzyme Surgical Products in connection with the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. - $30.0 million paid to Genzyme Tissue Repair for the transfer of the interest in Diacrin/Genzyme LLC and a draw by Genzyme Tissue Repair under an interdivisional financing arrangement. In 1998, our board of directors made $30.0 million of Genzyme General's cash available to Genzyme Molecular Oncology. Under the terms of this interdivisional financing arrangement, Genzyme Molecular Oncology may draw down funds as needed each quarter in exchange for Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares. 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. Genzyme Molecular Oncology has not yet drawn any funds under this arrangement. In 1998, our board of directors also made $50.0 million of Genzyme General's cash available to Genzyme Tissue Repair. Under the terms of this interdivisional financing arrangement, Genzyme Tissue Repair may draw down funds as needed each quarter in exchange for Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares. Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares are shares of Tissue Repair Stock that are not issued and outstanding, but which our board of directors may issue, sell or distribute without allocating the proceeds to Genzyme Tissue Repair. In February 1999, Genzyme Tissue Repair made a $5.0 million draw under this GG-14 arrangement in exchange for 1,633,399 Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares. In May 1999, the amount available under this interdivisional financing 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. In June 1999, Genzyme General transferred $150.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments to Genzyme Surgical Products in connection with the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. In exchange for this transfer, approximately 14.8 million shares of Surgical Products Stock were issued and distributed as a dividend to holders of Genzyme General Stock. Genzyme General, together with our other operating divisions, has access to Genzyme's revolving credit facilities. At December 31, 1999, $50.0 million was available under a facility that matures in November 2000 and $77.0 million was available under a facility that matures in November 2002. We believe that Genzyme General's available cash, investments and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund its planned operations and capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Although Genzyme General currently has substantial cash resources and positive cash flow, it intends to use substantial portions of its available cash for: - product development and marketing; - expanding facilities; - working capital; and - strategic business initiatives. Genzyme General's cash reserves will be further reduced to pay principal and interest on the following debt: - $21.2 million in principal under our 5% convertible subordinated debentures due August 2003, which are convertible into Genzyme General Stock; and - $250.0 million in principal under our 5 1/4% convertible subordinated notes due June 2005, which are convertible into Genzyme General Stock. If Genzyme General uses cash to pay or redeem this debt, including the interest due on it, its cash reserves will be diminished. In addition, Genzyme General's cash resources will be reduced to the extent that the liabilities allocated to Genzyme Molecular Oncology, Genzyme Surgical Products or Genzyme Tissue Repair affect our consolidated results of operations. To satisfy these and other commitments, Genzyme may have to obtain additional financing for Genzyme General. 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, EURO, YEAR 2000 AND MARKET RISK See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Genzyme Corporation and Subsidiaries' Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in this annual report. FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS The future operating results of Genzyme General could differ materially from the results described above due to the risks and uncertainties described below and under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Genzyme Corporation and Subsidiaries' Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Factors Affecting Future Operating Results" included in this annual report. GG-15 A REDUCTION IN REVENUES FROM SALES OF PRODUCTS THAT TREAT GAUCHER DISEASE WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON GENZYME GENERAL'S BUSINESS. Genzyme General generates a majority of its product revenues from sales of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, which are products for patients with Gaucher disease. Sales of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme and Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme totaled $478.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, representing approximately 84% of Genzyme General's product revenues for that year. Because Genzyme General's business is highly dependent on Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, a reduction in revenue from sales of this product would have an adverse effect on its operations and may cause the value of Genzyme General Stock 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 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. GENZYME GENERAL MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY COMMERCIALIZE THYROGEN-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- HORMONE AND RENAGEL-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- CAPSULES. In January 1999, Genzyme General, together with Knoll Pharmaceutical Company, launched U.S. sales of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- recombinant thyroid stimulating hormone for use in the treatment of thyroid cancer. At about the same time, Genzyme General, in collaboration with GelTex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., launched Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules, a non-absorbed phosphate binder used in the treatment of end-stage renal disease. The commercial success of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone and Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules will depend on a number of factors, including: - regulation by the FDA; - the ability to obtain regulatory approvals in foreign countries; - the development and commercial success of competitive products; and - the availability of third party reimbursement. Genzyme General cannot be sure that market penetration of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone and Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules will increase. IF THE STRATEGIC COLLABORATIONS GENZYME GENERAL HAS ENTERED INTO TO DEVELOP AND COMMERCIALIZE ITS PRODUCTS ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL, GENZYME GENERAL'S RESULTS OF OPERATIONS WILL BE ADVERSELY IMPACTED. Several of Genzyme General's strategic initiatives involve collaborations with other biotechnology companies and arrangements with academic medical centers. These include: - a joint venture with GelTex for the commercialization of Renagel-Registered Trademark- capsules; - an agreement with Knoll Pharmaceutical Company for the marketing of Thyrogen-Registered Trademark- hormone in the U.S.; - an agreement with Biogen, Inc. for the marketing of AVONEX-Registered Trademark- (Interferon-beta 1a), Biogen's treatment for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis, in Japan following regulatory approval; - a joint venture with BioMarin for the development and commercialization of Aldurazyme(TM) enzyme for the treatment of the lysosomal storage known as mucopolysaccharidosis I; GG-16 - a joint venture with Genzyme Transgenics for the development and commercialization of transgenic antithrombin III, a human protein that Genzyme Transgenics produces in the milk of genetically modified animals; - a joint venture with Pharming for the development and commercialization of human alpha-glucosidase for the treatment of Pompe disease; - an agreement with Genovo for the development of gene therapy products for the treatment of lysosomal storage disorders; - a relationship with Mount Sinai Medical Center for the development of a therapy for the treatment of Niemann-Pick disease; - a joint venture with Diacrin to develop and commercialize products and processes using porcine fetal cells for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease; and - an agreement with Dyax Corp. to develop and commercialize the protein EPI-KAL2 for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. Genzyme General plans to enter into additional collaborations in the future. The success of these arrangements are largely dependent on the efforts and skills of Genzyme General's collaborators. Genzyme General cannot guarantee that: - these agreements will not be terminated; - its strategic collaborators will devote significant resources to the collaborations; or - any of these collaborations will result in the successful development or commercialization of any products. OUR OPTION TO PURCHASE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS COULD DILUTE THE RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF GENZYME GENERAL STOCK. We organized Genzyme Development Partners, L.P., a special purpose research and development entity, in 1989 and transferred to it technology and commercial rights to our hyaluronic acid-based products designed to prevent the occurrence and severity of post-operative adhesions. These products, which we refer to as the Sepra products, are now allocated to Genzyme Surgical Products. We have an option to purchase the limited partnership interests in the partnership. If this option is exercised, we may have to issue shares of Genzyme General Stock or make substantial cash payments or both. If we make payments in Genzyme General Stock, the rights of holders of Genzyme General Stock could be diluted and the market price of that stock may fall. If we make cash payments, our cash resources would diminish. SUBSEQUENT EVENT In February 2000, Genzyme General recorded a gain of $20.3 million relating to a public offering of 3.5 million common shares by our unconsolidated affiliate, 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 the additional shares by GTC, Genzyme General's ownership interest in GTC decreased from 33% to 28%.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BUSINESS Genzyme General is our operating division that 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. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The combined financial statements of Genzyme General for each period include the balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows of the businesses we allocate to Genzyme General. We also allocate a portion of our corporate operations to Genzyme General using methods described in our allocation policy below. These combined financial statements are prepared using amounts included in our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report. We have reclassified certain 1998 and 1997 data to conform with the 1999 presentation. We prepare the financial statements of Genzyme General in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We present financial information and accounting policies specific to Genzyme General in the accompanying combined financial statements. We present financial information and accounting policies relevant to the corporation and its operating divisions taken as a whole in our consolidated financial statements. You should read the consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements of Genzyme General. Note A., "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our consolidated financial statements contains our accounting policies. We incorporate that information into this note by reference. TRACKING STOCK Genzyme General Division Common Stock, which we refer to as "Genzyme General Stock," is a series of our common stock that is designed to reflect the value and track the performance of Genzyme General. The chief mechanisms intended to cause Genzyme General Stock to "track" the financial performance of Genzyme General 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 Genzyme General into the determination of the amount available to pay dividends on Genzyme General Stock. 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. Our charter 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 GG-22 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 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 Genzyme General Stock are based on the income or losses attributable to Genzyme General, we include financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of Genzyme General to aid investors in evaluating its performance. While Genzyme General Stock is designed to reflect Genzyme General's performance, it is common stock of Genzyme Corporation and not Genzyme General; Genzyme General is a division, not a company or legal entity, and therefore does not and cannot issue stock. Consequently, holders of Genzyme General Stock have no specific rights to assets allocated to Genzyme General. Genzyme Corporation continues to hold title to all of the assets allocated to Genzyme General 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 Genzyme General 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 Genzyme General Stock and other tracking stockholders would only have the rights of common stockholders in the combined assets of Genzyme. ALLOCATION POLICY Our charter requires us to manage and account for transactions between Genzyme General and our other 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 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; GG-23 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - 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 of directors also allocates long-term debt and strategic investments. Note B., "Policies Governing the Relationship of Genzyme's Operating Divisions," further describes our policies concerning interdivisional transactions and income tax allocations. We believe that the divisional allocations are reasonable and have been consistently applied. However, the division's results of operations may not be indicative of what would have been realized if the division was a stand-alone entity. PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION In June 1999, we created Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. Genzyme General transferred $150.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, and certain other assets, to Genzyme Surgical Products in connection with the creation of Genzyme Surgical Products as a separate division of Genzyme. The business of Genzyme Surgical Products previously operated as a business unit of Genzyme General. These financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows allocated to Genzyme General as if the operations of Genzyme Surgical Products had been separately accounted for as its own division of the corporation for all periods presented. We use the equity method to account for investments in entities in which Genzyme General has a substantial ownership interest (20% to 50%), or in which it participates in policy decisions. Genzyme General's consolidated net income includes its share of the earnings of these entities. We report at fair value investments in entities in which Genzyme General's ownership interest is less than 20%. TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES We translate the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries allocated to Genzyme General from local currency into U.S. dollars and include translation adjustments for these subsidiaries in division equity. Genzyme General's division equity includes cumulative foreign currency translation charges of $19.7 million at December 31, 1999 and $4.8 million at December 31, 1998. We include exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances which are long-term in nature in our division equity. Our gains and losses on all other transactions are included in our results of operations. Genzyme General recorded a net gain of $0.6 million in 1999, a net gain of $0.3 million in 1998 and a net loss of $0.1 million in 1997. REVENUE RECOGNITION Genzyme General recognizes revenue from product sales when it ships the product and title has passed, net of any applicable third party contractual allowances and rebates. Genzyme General recognizes revenue from service sales when it has finished providing the service or when it has achieved an applicable milestone. Genzyme General recognizes revenue from research and development contracts over the term GG-24 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) of the applicable contract and as it incurs costs related to that contract. Up front license fees, milestone fees and royalty revenue are recognized as revenue only if there are no remaining performance obligations and the fees are non-refundable. Genzyme General receives royalties related to the manufacture, sale or use of products or technologies under license arrangements with third parties. For those arrangements where royalties are reasonably estimable, Genzyme General recognizes revenue based on based on estimates of royalties earned during the applicable period and adjusts 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, Genzyme General recognizes revenue upon receipt of licensee royalty statements. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE Earnings per share is calculated for each series of Genzyme stock using the two-class method, as further described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. We present earnings per share data only in the consolidated financial statements of Genzyme because Genzyme Corporation is the issuer of the securities. Genzyme's divisions do not and cannot issue securities because they are not companies or legal entities. NOTE B. POLICIES GOVERNING THE RELATIONSHIP OF GENZYME'S OPERATING DIVISIONS Because each of our operating divisions is a part of a single company, our board of directors has adopted policies to address issues that may arise among divisions and to govern the management of and the relationships between each division. With some exceptions that are mentioned specifically in this note, our board of directors may modify or rescind these policies, or adopt additional policies, in its sole discretion without stockholder approval, subject only to our board of directors' fiduciary duty to stockholders. Generally accepted accounting principles require that any change in policy be preferable (in accordance with these principles) to the previous policy. INTERDIVISION ASSET TRANSFERS Our board of directors may at any time reallocate any program, product or other asset from one division to any other division. We account for interdivision asset transfers at book value. The consideration paid for an asset transfer generally must be fair value as determined by our board of directors. The difference between the consideration paid and the book value of the assets transferred is recorded in division equity. Our board of directors determines fair value using the following methodologies: a risk-adjusted discounted cash flow model or a comparable transaction model. The risk-adjusted discounted cash flow model estimates fair value by taking the discounted value of all the cash inflows and outflows related to a program or product over a specified period of time, generally the economic life of the project, adjusted for the probabilities of certain outcomes occurring or not occurring. GG-25 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE B. POLICIES GOVERNING THE RELATIONSHIP OF GENZYME'S OPERATING DIVISIONS (CONTINUED) In performing this analysis, we consider various factors that could affect the success or failure of the program including: - the duration, cost and probability of success of each phase of development; - the current and potential size of the market and barriers to entry into the market; - the maximum number of patients likely to be treated with the product and the speed with which that maximum number will be reached; - reimbursement policies and pricing limitations; - current and potential competitors; - the net proceeds received by us upon the sale of the program or product; and - the costs of manufacturing and marketing the product or program. The comparable transaction model estimates fair value through comparison to valuations established for other transactions within the biotechnology and biosurgical areas involving similar programs and products having similar terms and structure. In identifying comparable transactions, we consider, among other factors, the following: - the similarity of market opportunity; - the comparability of the medical needs addressed; - the similarity of the regulatory, reimbursement and competitive environment; - the stage of product or program development; and - the risk profile of successfully commercializing the product or program. We customarily use the comparable transaction model to corroborate valuations derived under the risk-adjusted discounted cash flow model. When determining the fair value of a program under development using either model, our board of directors also takes into account the following criteria: - the commercial potential of the program; - the phase of clinical development of the program; - the expenses associated with realizing any income from the program and the likelihood and time of the realization; and - other matters that our board of directors and its financial advisors, if any, deem relevant. One division may compensate another division for a reallocation with cash or other consideration having a value equal to the fair market value of the reallocated assets. In the case of a reallocation of assets from Genzyme General to another division, our board of directors may elect instead to account for the reallocation as an increase in the designated shares representing the division to which the assets are GG-26 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE B. POLICIES GOVERNING THE RELATIONSHIP OF GENZYME'S OPERATING DIVISIONS (CONTINUED) reallocated in accordance with the provisions of our charter. No gain or loss is recognized as a result of these transfers. Our policy regarding transfers of assets between divisions may not be changed by our board of directors without the approval of the holders of Genzyme General Stock voting as a separate class unless the policy change does not affect Genzyme General. OTHER INTERDIVISION TRANSACTIONS Our divisions may engage in transactions directly with one or more other divisions or jointly with one or more other divisions and one or more third parties. These transactions may include agreements by one division to provide products and services for use by another division, license agreements and joint ventures or other collaborative arrangements involving more than one division to develop new products and services jointly and with third parties. These transactions are subject to the following conditions: - We charge research and development (including clinical and regulatory support), distribution, sales, marketing, and general and administrative services (including allocated space) performed by one division for another division to the division for which the services are performed on a cost basis. We charge direct costs to the division for which we incur them. We allocate direct labor and indirect costs in reasonable and consistent manners based on the use by a division of relevant services. Divisions performing services for other divisions do not recognize revenue for the services they perform. - We charge the manufacturing of goods and performance of services by one division exclusively for another division to the division for which it is performed on a cost basis. We include in manufacturing costs an interest charge (based on our short-term borrowing rate at the beginning of the fiscal year) on the gross fixed assets used in the manufacturing process. We determine gross fixed assets for the facility used at the beginning of each fiscal year. We allocate direct labor and indirect costs in reasonable and consistent manners based on the benefit received by a division of related goods and services. Divisions performing services for other divisions do not recognize revenue for the services they perform. - Other than transactions involving research and development, manufacturing, distribution, sales, marketing, general and administrative services, which are addressed above, all interdivisional transactions are performed on terms and conditions obtainable in arm's length transactions with third parties. Divisions performing services for other divisions do not recognize revenue for the services they perform. - Our board must approve interdivisional transactions that are performed on terms and conditions other than as described above and are material to one or more of the participating divisions. In giving its approval, our board must determine that the transaction is fair and reasonable to each participating division and to holders of the common stock representing each participating division. - Divisions may make loans to other divisions. Any loan of $1 million or less matures within 18 months and accrues interest at the best borrowing rate available to the corporation for a loan of like type and duration. Our board of directors must approve any loan in excess of $1 million. In GG-27 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE B. POLICIES GOVERNING THE RELATIONSHIP OF GENZYME'S OPERATING DIVISIONS (CONTINUED) giving its approval, our board of directors must determine that the material terms of the loan, including the interest rate and maturity date, are fair and reasonable to each participating division and to holders of the common stock representing each such division. - All material interdivisional transactions are set forth in a written agreement that is signed by an authorized member of the management team of each division involved in the transaction. TAX ALLOCATIONS 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 provision. As of the end of any fiscal quarter, however, if a division cannot 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 the other divisions in proportion to their taxable income without any compensating payment or allocation. Tax benefits allocated to Genzyme General are recorded as a credit to division equity. ACCESS TO TECHNOLOGY AND KNOW-HOW Genzyme General has unrestricted access to all technology and know-how owned or controlled by Genzyme Corporation that may be useful in its business, subject to any obligations or limitations that apply to the corporation generally. NOTE C. OTHER GAINS AND CHARGES During the fourth quarter of 1999, Genzyme General recorded a net gain of $14.4 million upon receipt of a payment associated with the termination of an agreement to acquire Cell Genesys, Inc. Genzyme General recorded this gain as other income. During the third quarter of 1998, Genzyme General recorded a $14.8 million charge to cost of products sold to write down excess inventory used to make Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme. Genzyme General took this charge following a determination that, based on the status of efforts to convert Gaucher disease patients to a treatment regimen using Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme, the existing supply of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- enzyme was sufficient to meet estimated patient needs. Genzyme General also recorded $20.1 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 Genzyme General's melatonin, bulk pharmaceuticals and fine chemical product lines. Genzyme General took this charge after it discontinued these product lines; and - a $2.0 million charge to other expense relating to uncertainty in collecting a note receivable that was issued upon the sale of Genetic Design, Inc. GG-28 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE D. DISPOSITIONS OF ASSETS 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. In 1999, we recorded a gain of $2.0 million upon the sale of our remaining shares of Techne common stock. The $3.4 million and $2.0 million gains were recorded as gains on sale of investments in equity securities. The research products business had been allocated to Genzyme General. Note C., "Dispositions of Assets," to our consolidated financial statements contains information regarding: - the sale of Genzyme General's immunochemistry product lines to an operating unit of Sybron Laboratory Products Corp.; and - the sale of Genetic Design to Laboratory Corporation of America. We incorporate that information into this note by reference. NOTE E. PEPTIMMUNE ACQUISITION 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 technology 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. Genzyme General recorded this amount as a charge to operations. NOTE F. OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Note E., "Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments," to our consolidated financial statements contains information regarding interest rate swap contracts that are allocated to Genzyme General. We incorporate that information into this note by reference. GG-29 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE G. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Genzyme General's trade receivables primarily represent amounts due from distributors, healthcare service providers and companies and institutions engaged in research, development or production of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products. Genzyme General performs credit evaluations of its customers on an ongoing basis and generally does not require collateral. Genzyme General states accounts receivable at fair value after reflecting an allowance for doubtful accounts. This allowance was $17.6 million at December 31, 1999 and $9.9 million at December 31, 1998. The following table contains information on Genzyme General's intangible assets for the periods presented:

REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES ON MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY SECURITIES Genzyme General recorded gains of $2.0 million in 1999 and $3.4 million in 1998 upon the sale of its investment in shares of Techne common stock. Genzyme General also recorded a $5.7 million charge in 1999 in connection with its 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 its 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 its cost. This included continued positive progress in the issuers' scientific programs, ongoing activity in Genzyme General's 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 Genzyme General's purchase price was GG-32 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE J.

------------------------ (1) Designated shares are shares of our common stock that are not issued and outstanding, but which our board of directors may issue, sell or distribute without allocating the proceeds to the division corresponding to that series of stock. As of December 31, 1999, there were 1,688,237 Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares, 1,164,839 Genzyme Surgical Products designated shares and 2,238,053 Genzyme Tissue Repair designated shares. The number of Genzyme Molecular Oncology designated shares assumes 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 equity line of credit in 1998 will decrease based on a formula set forth in our charter. GG-36 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE M. DIVISION EQUITY (CONTINUED) 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 cash 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 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. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS We apply APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for our five stock-based compensation plans: the 1990 Equity Incentive Plan, the 1997 Equity Plan (both of which are stock option plans), the 1990 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and the 1998 Director Stock Option Plan. 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 division net income data for Genzyme General as if compensation expense for our stock-based compensation plans was determined in accordance with SFAS 123 based on GG-37 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE M. DIVISION EQUITY (CONTINUED) the fair value at the grant dates of the awards, and the compensation expense related to Genzyme General Stock awards would be allocated to Genzyme General in accordance with our allocation policies:

Note L., "Stockholders' Equity," to our consolidated financial statements contains information regarding the assumptions we made in calculating pro forma compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123. The effects of applying SFAS 123 are not likely to be representative of the effects on reported division net income in future years. SFAS 123 does not apply to awards granted prior to 1995, and additional awards are anticipated in future years. NOTE N. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS Genzyme General's revenue from research and development agreements with Genzyme Transgenics Corporation was:
1999 1998 1997 ---- ---- ---- $1.5 million $3.6 million $8.0 million
Note M., "Research and Development Agreements," to our consolidated financial statements contains information regarding Genzyme General's: - Relationships with Genzyme Transgenics Corporation; and - Investments in the following joint ventures: - BioMarin/Genzyme LLC; - Diacrin/Genzyme LLC; - Pharming/Genzyme LLC; and - RenaGel LLC. We incorporate that information in this note by reference. NOTE O. 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 Genzyme General's results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. GG-38 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE P.

GG-39 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE P. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) The components of net deferred tax assets are described in the following table:
DECEMBER 31, ----------------------- 1999 1998 ---------- ---------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards.................... $ 3,164 $ 2,423 Tax credits......................................... 9,413 3,714 Deferred loss....................................... -- 2,002 Intangible amortization............................. 36,496 38,271 Investments in unconsolidated subsidiary............ 3,396 3,108 Realized and unrealized capital losses.............. 10,088 8,822 Reserves, accruals and other........................ 37,055 35,798 Allocation of tax asset from Genzyme Molecular Oncology.......................................... 3,787 15,621 Allocation of tax asset from Genzyme Tissue Repair............................................ 15,510 2,648 -------- -------- Gross deferred tax asset................................ $118,909 $112,407 Valuation allowance.....................................

(878) -- Allocation of tax liability from Genzyme Surgical Products.......................................... (4,069) (2,788) -------- -------- Net deferred tax asset.............................. $ 61,039 $ 67,863 ======== ========
As a result of uncertainty surrounding our ability to realize certain tax benefits that primarily relate to capital losses from the purchase of in-process research and development, we placed valuation allowances of $17.6 million in 1999 and $15.4 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. At December 31, 1999, Genzyme General had for U.S. income tax purposes allocated net operating loss carryforwards of $9.0 million and an allocated tax credit carryforward of $9.4 million. The net operating loss carryforwards expire between 2003 and 2019 and, prior to expiration, Genzyme General's ability to use this carryforward may be limited under U.S. tax laws. Tax credits of $4.9 million will carryforward indefinitely and approximately $4.5 million of the tax credit carryforwards will expire from 2014 to 2019. Approximately $9.4 million of the tax credit carryforwards relate to exercises of non-qualified stock options and disqualifying dispositions of incentive stock options, the tax benefit of which, if realized, will be credited to additional paid-in-capital.

We present segment information in a manner consistent with the method we use to report this information to our management. Applying SFAS 131, Genzyme General has two reportable segments: - Therapeutics, which develops, manufactures and distributes human therapeutic products for significant unmet medical needs. The business derives substantially all of its revenue from sales of Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzyme; and - Diagnostic Products, which provides diagnostic products to niche markets, focusing on in vitro diagnostics.

Genzyme General operates in the healthcare industry, and manufactures and markets its products primarily in the United States and Europe. Genzyme General's principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Germany. It purchases products from our English and Swiss subsidiaries for sale to customers in the United States. Genzyme General sets transfer prices from our foreign subsidiaries to allow it to produce profit margins commensurate with its GG-43 GENZYME GENERAL A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE R. SEGMENT INFORMATION (CONTINUED) sales and marketing effort. Our Dutch subsidiary is Genzyme General's primary distributor of therapeutic products in Europe. No subsidiary in any individual foreign country has revenue form external customers in excess of 10% of our total revenue. The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area:
1999 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) Revenues: United States............................... $412,611 $371,587 $363,455 Europe...................................... 158,428 147,088 134,637 Other....................................... 64,327 50,644 1,724 -------- -------- -------- Total......................................... $635,366 $569,319 $496,368 ======== ======== ======== Long-lived assets: United States............................... $647,024 $755,023 $506,085 Other....................................... 52,541 57,247 54,198 -------- -------- -------- Total......................................... $699,565 $812,270 $560,283 ======== ======== ========
Genzyme General's results of operations are highly dependent on sales of Ceredase-Registered Trademark- and Cerezyme-Registered Trademark- enzymes. Sales of these products represented 84% of Genzyme General's product revenue in 1999, 81% of product revenue in 1998, and 78% of product revenue in 1997. Genzyme General sells 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 these products are sold to a large number of customers in a number of different industries and over a broad geographic area.

NOTE T. SUBSEQUENT EVENT In February 2000, Genzyme General 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. The public offering resulted in net proceeds to GTC of $75.2 million (after the exercise of the underwriter's overallotment option). As a result of the issuance of the additional shares by GTC, Genzyme General's ownership interest in GTC decreased from 33% to 28%. GG-44 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Genzyme Corporation: In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheets and the related combined statements of operations and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Genzyme General (as described in Note A) at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its 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. 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 combined 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 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. As more fully described in Note A to these financial statements, Genzyme General is a division of Genzyme Corporation; accordingly, the combined financial statements of Genzyme General should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Genzyme Corporation and Subsidiaries. /s/ PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Boston, Massachusetts February 23, 2000 GG-45 GENZYME GENERAL DIVISION A DIVISION OF GENZYME CORPORATION SCHEDULE II - VALUATION AND QUALIFYING ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999, 1998 AND 1997
