    About Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
    Halozyme is a biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing
recombinant human enzymes for the drug delivery, palliative care, oncology,
and infertility markets. The company's portfolio of products is based on
intellectual property covering the family of human enzymes known as
hyaluronidases. Halozyme's recombinant human enzymes may replace current
animal slaughterhouse-derived extracts that carry potential risks of animal
pathogen transmission and immunogenicity. The company has received FDA
approval for two products: Cumulase(R), the first and only recombinant
human hyaluronidase for cumulus removal in the IVF process; and Hylenex for
use as an adjuvant to increase the absorption and dispersion of other
injected drugs. The versatility of the first enzyme, rHuPH20, enables
Halozyme to develop the product as a medical device, drug enhancement
agent, and therapeutic drug.
