We delivered an important, innovative bone health therapy, denosumab, in the form of two novel medicines: Prolia®, Aranesp® (darbepoetin alfa) approved in Europe, the United States, and several other countries for ™ postmenopausal osteoporosis, and XGEVA , approved in the United States Enbrel® (etanercept) for the prevention of skeletal-related events in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors. We grew revenues 3 percent, adjusted earnings per EPOGEN® (Epoetin alfa) share* 6 percent, and generated nearly $6 billion in operating cash fl ow, ® despite continuing global economic turmoil and a $200 million adverse Neulasta (pegfi lgrastim) impact to revenues from U.S. healthcare reform and reimbursement NEUPOGEN® (Filgrastim) headwinds. In sum, it was a superb operational year. Nplate® (romiplostim) Developing Denosumab: Amgen at Its Best ® The story of the development of denosumab is an excellent example of Prolia (denosumab) Amgen at its best. After 15 years of extraordinary effort from molecule to Sensipar® (cinacalcet) medicine, nearly $1.5 billion of investment, millions of staff hours, and complex clinical trials with thousands of patients around the world, Amgen Vectibix® (panitumumab) delivered two medicines for patients that are seen by many as one of the biggest therapeutic opportunities in our industry.

We are excited about the potential of our pipeline in cloned the erythropoietin gene. a number of therapeutic areas, including oncology, infl ammation, bone disease, and cardiovascular disease. We also expect to achieve important regulatory goals this year. For example, we reported landmark clinical trial data for XGEVA™ in December, showing signifi cant improvement in bone-metastasis-free survival in men with prostate cancer, thereby adding to the potential of XGEVA™ to benefi t patients. 38822_Txt.indd 2 3/9/11 12:17 PM We expect to fi le for approval of a new indication in prostate cancer in Awards and Recognition the United States in the fi rst half of 2011. • Prolia® (denosumab) wins Scrip’s Innovation from Inside and Out to Drive Growth Best New Drug award, one of the We will also use our considerable fi nancial strength to acquire or license industry’s highest global accolades. innovative molecules that address important unmet medical needs.
