forward-looking statements are based on Human Genome Sciences' current
intent, belief and expectations. These statements are not guarantees of

the uncertainty of regulation of products, the impact of future alliances
or transactions and other risks described in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the Company will continue
to face risks related to animal and human testing, to the manufacture of
ABthrax and to FDA concurrence that ABthrax meets the requirements of the
