Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2012

(1)  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Celldex Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Celldex”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflect the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 8, 2012.  In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented.  The year-end consolidated balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any future interim period or the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

At June 30, 2012, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $78.7 million; working capital of $67.8 million; and a Term Loan balance of $13.9 million. The Company incurred a loss of $27.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Net cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $25.5 million. The Company believes that the cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at June 30, 2012 will be sufficient to meet estimated working capital requirements and fund planned operations for at least the next twelve months.

The Company raised net proceeds of $51.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 from the sale of its common stock.  During the next twelve months, the Company may take further steps to raise additional capital to meet its long-term liquidity needs.  These capital raising activities may include, but may not be limited to, one or more of the following: the licensing of technology programs with existing or new collaborative partners, possible business combinations, issuance of debt, or the issuance of common stock or other securities via private placements or public offerings. While the Company continues to seek capital through a number of means, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, and the Company’s negotiating position in capital-raising efforts may worsen as existing resources are used. There is also no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into further collaborative relationships. Additional equity financing may be dilutive to the Company’s stockholders; debt financing, if available, may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to operate as a business; and licensing or strategic collaborations may result in royalties or other terms which reduce the Company’s economic potential from products under development. If the Company is unable to raise the funds necessary to meet its long-term liquidity needs, it may have to delay or discontinue the development of one or more programs, discontinue or delay on-going or anticipated clinical trials, license out programs earlier than expected, raise funds at significant discount or on other unfavorable terms, if at all, or sell all or a part of the Company.

(2)  Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2012 are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, except for the adoption of new accounting standards during the first six months of 2012 as discussed below.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In January 2012, the Company adopted a new U.S. GAAP accounting standard which amended the guidance on the annual testing of goodwill for impairment. The amended guidance allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required

Table of Contents

under U.S. GAAP.  The Company’s adoption of this new standard did not have a material effect on its operating results or financial position.

In January 2012, the Company adopted a new U.S. GAAP accounting standard which clarifies the application of certain existing fair value measurement guidance and expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs.  The Company’s adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its operating results or financial position.

(3)  Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per common share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding restricted stock that has been issued but is not yet vested. Diluted net loss per common share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus additional weighted-average potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. The potentially dilutive common shares that have not been included in the net loss per common share calculations because the effect would have been anti-dilutive are as follows:

(4)  Fair Value Measurements

The following tables set forth the Company’s financial assets subject to fair value measurements:

There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities between the fair value measurement classifications. The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, short-term accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt obligations. The Company values its marketable securities utilizing independent pricing services which normally derive security prices from recently reported trades for identical or similar securities, making adjustments based on significant observable transactions. At each balance sheet date, observable market inputs may include trade information, broker or dealer quotes, bids, offers or a combination of these data sources. Short-term accounts receivable and accounts payable are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.  Our Term Loan is valued based on level 2 inputs.  Based on these calculations, the fair value approximates the carrying value of the Term Loan and note payable at June 30, 2012.

(5)  Marketable Securities

A summary of marketable securities is shown below:

The marketable securities held by the Company were high investment grade and there were no marketable securities that the Company considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2012.

(6)  Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, and goodwill are as follows:

(7) Term Loan

In December 2010, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with MidCap Financial, LLC (MidCap) pursuant to which the Company borrowed $10 million (the “Term Loan”) from MidCap. In March 2011, as the Company had anticipated, the Company amended the Loan Agreement and borrowed an additional $5 million from General Electric Capital Corporation (GECC) (collectively with MidCap, the “Lenders”) to increase the amount owed under the Term Loan to $15 million. No additional advances are available under the Loan Agreement. The Term Loan accrues interest at a fixed annual interest rate equal to the greater of (i) the sum of (A) the LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus (B) 6.25%; or (ii) a minimum rate of 9.50%. In September 2011, the Company exercised an option to extend the interest-only period by 6 months from October 1, 2011 to April 1, 2012. In March 2012, the Company amended the Loan Agreement to extend the maturity date from

Table of Contents

December 2013 to December 2014 in return for an upfront fee of $25,000 and an additional fee of $37,500 (the “Final Payment Fee”) due upon repayment of the Term Loan in full. The Company is accreting the $37,500 ratably over the amended term of the Term Loan to interest expense.

Interest on the Term Loan is payable monthly and principal is due, as amended, in 34 equal consecutive monthly installments commencing on April 1, 2012. All unpaid principal and accrued interest with respect to the Term Loan is due and payable on the earlier of (A) December 30, 2014 or (B) the date that the Term Loan otherwise becomes due and payable under the terms of the Loan Agreement. The Company may prepay all, but not less than all, of the Term Loan subject to a prepayment premium of 1% in year three and 2% in year two of the original principal amount of the Term Loan. There is no prepayment premium if the loan is paid off early in year four. The Company is also obligated to make a payment fee of $0.5 million (the “Payment Fee”) upon the earlier of (A) December 30, 2013 or (B) upon repayment of the Term Loan in full prior to December 30, 2013. The Company is accreting the Payment Fee ratably over the original term of the Term Loan to interest expense.

The obligations of the Company under the Loan Agreement are secured by a first priority lien upon and security interest in substantially all of the Company’s existing and after-acquired assets, excluding its intellectual property assets. Under the Loan Agreement, the Company is subject to specified affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type. The Loan Agreement provides that, upon the occurrence of certain specified events of default customary for financings of this type, the Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement may be automatically accelerated, whereupon the Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement shall be immediately due and payable. At June 30, 2012, the Company believes it is in compliance with the Loan Agreement.

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in capitalized deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the Term Loan and is amortizing these costs over the amended term of the Term Loan to interest expense. Interest expense on the Term Loan including the accretion of the Payment Fee and Final Payment Fee and amortization of the deferred financing costs was $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

(8) Other Long-Term Liabilities

Other long-term liabilities include the following:

In January 2012 and 2011, the Company received approval from the New Jersey Economic Development Authority and agreed to sell New Jersey tax benefits worth $0.8 million and $0.6 million to an independent third party for $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively.  Under the agreement, the Company must maintain a base of operations in NJ for five years or the tax benefits must be paid back on a pro-rata basis based on the number of years completed.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $0.1 million to other income related to the sale of these tax benefits.

(9) Stockholders’ Equity

In January 2011, the Company entered into a controlled equity offering sales agreement (the “Cantor Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (Cantor) pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell up to 5,000,000 shares of its common stock from time to time through Cantor, acting as agent. The Company agreed to pay Cantor a commission of up to 5% of the gross proceeds from each sale and to reimburse Cantor for certain expenses incurred in connection with entering into the Cantor Agreement. The Cantor Agreement terminates upon the sale of all 5,000,000 shares or upon ten day notice by either Cantor or the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company sold 575,000 shares of common stock under the Cantor Agreement and raised $2.2 million in net proceeds, after deducting commission and offering expenses. In January 2012, the Company sold 2,450,000 shares of common stock under the Cantor Agreement and raised $8.5 million in net proceeds.  At June 30, 2012, the Company had 1,975,000

shares available to be sold under the Cantor Agreement of which the Company sold 538,500 shares of stock during July 2012 and raised $2.8 million in net proceeds.

During February and March 2012, the Company issued a total of 12,075,000 shares of its common stock in an underwritten public offering, including the underwriter’s exercise of their full over-allotment option to purchase an additional 1,575,000 shares of common stock. The net proceeds to the Company were $43.4 million, after deducting underwriting fees and offering expenses.

(10)  Stock-Based Compensation

At June 30, 2012, the 2008 Stock Option and Incentive Plan allowed for a maximum of 7,400,000 shares of common stock to be issued for grants of Stock Options and other Awards made prior to March 7, 2018 and grants of Incentive Stock Options made prior to October 20, 2017.

A summary of stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is as follows:

The weighted average grant-date fair value of stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $2.49.

A summary of restricted stock activity under the 2008 Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is as follows:

Stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was recorded as follows:

The fair values of employee stock options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

(11)  Income Taxes

Massachusetts, New Jersey and Connecticut are the three states in which the Company primarily operates or has operated and has income tax nexus. The Company is not currently under examination by any jurisdictions for any tax year.

The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its net deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of net operating loss carryforwards, capitalized R&D expenditures and R&D tax credit carryforwards. The Company has determined that it is more likely than not that it will not recognize the benefits of federal and state deferred tax assets and, as a result, a full valuation allowance was maintained at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 against the Company’s net deferred tax assets.

OVERVIEW

We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of several immunotherapy technologies for the treatment of cancer and other difficult-to-treat diseases. Our lead drug candidates include rindopepimut (CDX-110), an immunotherapeutic vaccine in a pivotal Phase 3 study for the treatment of front-line glioblastoma and a Phase 2 study for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma, CDX-011, an antibody-drug conjugate in a randomized Phase 2b study for the treatment of advanced breast cancer and CDX-1127, a therapeutic human antibody in a Phase 1 study for cancer indications. We have additional clinical and preclinical programs, including CDX-1401, an APC Targeting Technology™ program, CDX-301, an immune cell mobilizing agent and dendritic cell growth factor and CDX-1135, a molecule that inhibits a part of the immune system called the complement system.

Generally our strategy is to develop and demonstrate proof-of-concept for our drug candidates before leveraging their value through partnerships or, in appropriate situations, continuing late stage development through commercialization ourselves. Demonstrating proof-of-concept for a drug candidate generally involves bringing it through Phase 1 clinical trials and one or more Phase 2 clinical trials so that we are able to demonstrate, based on human trials, good safety data for the drug candidate and some data indicating its effectiveness. We thus leverage the value of our technology portfolio through corporate, governmental and non-governmental partnerships. This approach allows us to maximize the overall value of our technology and product portfolio while best ensuring the expeditious development of each individual product. Our current collaborations include the commercialization of an oral human rotavirus vaccine. We are exploring potential development and commercialization collaborations for certain drug candidates such as CDX-011 and CDX-1127. Furthermore, while we plan to retain the rights to develop and commercialize rindopepimut in North America, we are exploring potential partnership opportunities to commercialize rindopepimut outside of North America. Our drug candidates address market opportunities for which we believe current therapies are inadequate or non-existent.

Our products are derived from a broad set of complementary technologies which have the ability to utilize the human immune system and enable the creation of therapeutic agents. We are using these technologies to develop targeted immunotherapeutics comprised of antibodies, adjuvants and monotherapies and antibody-drug conjugates that prevent or treat cancer and other diseases that modify undesirable activity by the body’s own proteins or cells. A number of our immunotherapeutic and antibody-drug conjugate drug candidates are in various stages of clinical trials. We expect that a large percentage of our research and development expenses will be incurred in support of our current and future clinical trial programs.

The following table includes the programs that we currently believe are material to our business:

13

Table of Contents

The expenditures that will be necessary to execute our business plan are subject to numerous uncertainties. Completion of clinical trials may take several years or more, and the length of time generally varies substantially according to the type, complexity, novelty and intended use of a product candidate. It is not unusual for the clinical development of these types of product candidates to each take five years or more, and for total development costs to exceed $100 million for each product candidate. Our estimates that clinical trials of the type we generally conduct are typically completed over the following timelines:

The duration and the cost of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project as a result of differences arising during the clinical trial protocol, including, among others, the following:

·                  the number of patients that ultimately participate in the trial;

·                  the duration of patient follow-up that seems appropriate in view of results;

·                  the number of clinical sites included in the trials;

·                  the length of time required to enroll suitable patient subjects; and

·                  the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.

We test potential product candidates in numerous preclinical studies for safety, toxicology and immunogenicity. We may then conduct multiple clinical trials for each product candidate. As we obtain results from trials, we may elect to discontinue or delay clinical trials for certain product candidates in order to focus our resources on more promising product candidates.

An element of our business strategy is to pursue the research and development of a broad portfolio of product candidates. This is intended to allow us to diversify the risks associated with our research and development expenditures. As a result, we believe our future capital requirements and our future financial success are not substantially dependent on any one product candidate. To the extent we are unable to maintain a broad range of product candidates, our dependence on the success of one or a few product candidates increases.

Regulatory approval is required before we can market our product candidates as therapeutic or vaccine products. In order to proceed to subsequent clinical trial stages and to ultimately achieve regulatory approval, the regulatory agency must conclude that our clinical data is safe and effective. Historically, the results from preclinical testing and early clinical trials (through Phase 2) have often not been predictive of results obtained in later clinical trials. A number of new drugs, biologics and vaccines have shown promising results in early clinical trials, but subsequently failed to establish sufficient safety and efficacy data to obtain necessary regulatory approvals.

Furthermore, our business strategy includes the option of entering into collaborative arrangements with third parties to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidates. In the event that third parties take over the clinical trial process for one of our product candidates, the estimated completion date would largely be under control of that third party rather than us. We cannot forecast with any degree of certainty which proprietary products, if any, will be subject to future collaborative arrangements, in whole or in part, and how such arrangements would affect our development plan or capital requirements. Our programs may also benefit from subsidies, grants, contracts or government or agency-sponsored studies that could reduce our development costs.

As a result of the uncertainties discussed above, among others, we are unable to estimate the duration and completion costs of our research and development projects or when, if ever, and to what extent it will receive cash inflows from the commercialization and sale of a product. Our inability to complete our research and development projects in a timely manner or our failure to enter into collaborative agreements, when appropriate, could significantly increase our capital requirements and could adversely impact our liquidity. These uncertainties could force us to seek additional, external sources of financing from time to time in order to continue with our business strategy. Our inability to raise additional capital, or to do so on terms reasonably acceptable to us, would jeopardize the future success of our business.

During the past five years through December 31, 2011, we incurred an aggregate of $118.8 million in research and development expenses. The following table indicates the amount incurred for each of our significant research programs and for other identified research and development activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The amounts disclosed in the following table reflect direct research and development costs, license fees associated with the underlying technology and an allocation of indirect research and development costs to each program.

Clinical Development Programs

Rindopepimut (CDX-110)

Our lead clinical development program, rindopepimut, is an immunotherapeutic vaccine that targets the tumor-specific molecule, epidermal growth factor receptor variant III (EGFRvIII).  EGFRvIII is a mutated form of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) that is only expressed in cancer cells and not in normal tissue and can directly contribute to cancer cell growth. EGFRvIII has been shown by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis to be expressed in approximately 31% of glioblastoma (GB) tumors, also referred to as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most common and aggressive form of brain cancer.  The rindopepimut vaccine is composed of the EGFRvIII peptide linked to a carrier protein called Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) and administered together with the adjuvant GM-CSF. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) have both granted orphan drug designation for rindopepimut for the treatment of EGFRvIII expressing GB and the FDA has also granted Fast Track designation.

In April 2008, we and Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer) entered into a License and Development Agreement under which Pfizer was granted an exclusive worldwide license to rindopepimut. This agreement provided for reimbursement by Pfizer of all costs incurred by us in connection with the collaboration since the effective date. In November 2010, the agreement was terminated and all rights to rindopepimut were returned to us. Pfizer did not provide a reason for termination.  Since the termination of this agreement, Pfizer is no longer funding the development of rindopepimut.

The Phase 1 (VICTORI) and Phase 2a (ACTIVATE) studies of EGFRvIII immunotherapy were led by collaborating investigators at the Brain Center at Duke Comprehensive Cancer Center in Durham, North Carolina and at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas and enrolled 14 and 18 evaluable GB patients, respectively. An extension of the Phase 2a study (ACT II) at the same two institutions evaluated 22 additional GB patients treated in combination with maintenance temozolomide (TMZ) (the current standard of care).

We initiated a Phase 2b/3 randomized study (ACT III) of rindopepimut combined with standard of care, TMZ, versus standard of care alone in patients with GB in over 30 sites throughout the United States. In December 2008, we announced an amendment to convert the ACT III study to a single-arm Phase 2 clinical trial in which all patients were to receive rindopepimut in combination with temozolomide. The decision, which followed the recommendation of the Independent Data Monitoring Committee, was based on the observation that the majority of patients randomized to the control (standard of care) arm withdrew from this open-label study after being randomized to the control arm. Patients participating in the control arm of the study were offered the option to receive treatment with rindopepimut. Under this amendment, the ACT III study provided for a multi-center, non-randomized dataset for rindopepimut in patients with newly diagnosed GB.

In November 2010, we announced complete data for the primary endpoint of the 65 patients enrolled to receive rindopepimut in combination with maintenance TMZ in the ACT III study. The data showed that 43 of 65 patients (66%) were progression-free at 5.5 months after entry into the study. Taking into account the 3 to 3.5 months required to complete pre-study chemoradiation and enter into the study, the 5.5 month time point in ACT III corresponds to approximately 8.5 months after diagnosis.

ACT II trials, which were conducted in two leading centers, reported progression-free rates at 8.5 months after diagnosis of 70% and 80%, respectively, and similar results were seen in the ACT III trial, which enrolled patients in over 25 centers in the United States.

The following table summarizes the progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates from clinical trials of rindopepimut as compared to matched historical controls and the standard of care (SOC).

Historical controls were treated at M.D. Anderson and matched for eligibility (EGFRvIII-positive, karnofsky performance status (KPS) greater-than or equal to 80%, complete resection, radiation/temozolomide (TMZ) and without progression through approximately 3 months post-diagnosis).

Importantly, rindopepimut showed a similar benefit in patients whether or not they expressed an active DNA repair gene (MGMT) that has been shown to limit the benefit from TMZ treatment. In ACT III, the number of patients who were expected to be resistant to the TMZ chemotherapy appeared to do better with vaccination than the numbers observed in the historical data. Patients who have an active DNA repair gene, MGMT (unmethylated), generally have a worse outcome, presumably because they do not gain much benefit from TMZ as reported in the literature. Patients with a methylated MGMT promoter in their tumor do not express MGMT and have a more favorable outcome to TMZ treatment. Patients with methylated tumors (n=25) that were treated with the rindopepimut regimen experienced a median PFS of 17.5 months, which compares favorably with the published data from the SOC of radiation plus TMZ (R+TMZ) of 10.3 months. Those with unmethylated tumors (n=40) treated with the rindopepimut regimen experienced a PFS of 11.2 months, which compared favorably to the PFS with SOC of 5.3 months in this patient population. Thus, rindopepimut would appear to benefit both methylated and unmethylated MGMT patients.  We expect to present updated overall survival data from the ACT III study in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In December 2011, we initiated ACT IV, a pivotal, randomized, double-blind, controlled Phase 3 study of rindopepimut in patients with surgically resected, EGFRvIII-positive GB. Patients will be randomized after the completion of surgery and standard chemoradiation. The treatment regime includes a vaccine priming phase post-radiation followed by an adjuvant temozolomide phase and a vaccine maintenance therapy phase. Patients will be treated until disease progression or intolerance to therapy. The primary objective of the study is to determine whether rindopepimut plus adjuvant GM-CSF improves the overall survival of patients with newly diagnosed EGFRvIII-positive GB after Gross Total Resection (GTR) when compared to treatment with TMZ and a control injection of KLH. KLH is a component of rindopepimut and was selected due to its ability to generate a similar injection site reaction to that observed with the rindopepimut vaccine. ACT IV will enroll up to 440 patients at over 150 centers worldwide to recruit approximately 374 patients with GTR to be included in the primary analysis. Our targeted patient accrual is 24 months and another 18 to 24 months of follow-up. We expect it will cost over $50 million to complete this Phase 3 study.

In December 2011, we also initiated ReACT, a Phase 2 study of rindopepimut in combination with Avastin® in patients with recurrent EGFRvIII-positive GB. ReACT will enroll approximately 95 patients in a first or second relapse of GB following receipt of standard therapy and will be conducted at approximately 20 sites across the United States. Approximately 70 patients who have yet to receive Avastin will be randomized to receive either rindopepimut and Avastin or a control injection of KLH and Avastin in a blinded fashion. Another 25 patients who are refractory to Avastin having received Avastin in either the frontline or recurrent setting with subsequent progression will receive rindopepimut plus Avastin in a single treatment arm. We expect preliminary data from this study to be available in mid-2013.

In addition, researchers at Stanford University are conducting a pilot trial of rindopepimut in pediatric patients with pontine glioma in an investigator sponsored trial. Patient screening is ongoing for this trial.

Glembatumumab Vedotin (CDX-011)

CDX-011 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that consists of a fully-human monoclonal antibody, CR011, linked to a potent cell-killing drug, monomethyl-auristatin E (MMAE). The CR011 antibody specifically targets glycoprotein NMB (GPNMB) that is expressed in a variety of human cancers including breast cancer and melanoma. The ADC technology, comprised of MMAE and a stable linker system for attaching it to CR011, was licensed from Seattle Genetics, Inc. The ADC is designed to be stable in the bloodstream. Following intravenous administration, CDX-011 targets and binds to GPNMB and upon internalization into the targeted cell, CDX-011 is designed to release MMAE from CR011 to produce a cell-killing effect. The FDA has granted Fast Track designation to CDX-011 for the treatment of advanced, refractory/resistant GPNMB-expressing breast cancer.

Treatment of Breast Cancer:  In June 2008, an open-label, multi-center Phase 1/2 study was initiated of CDX-011 administered intravenously once every three weeks to patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who had received prior therapy (median of seven prior regimens). The study began with a bridging phase to confirm the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and then expanded into a Phase 2 open-label, multi-center study.

The study confirmed the safety of CDX-011 at the pre-defined maximum dose level (1.88 mg/kg) in 6 patients. An additional 28 patients were enrolled as an expanded Phase 2 cohort (for a total of 34 treated patients at 1.88 mg/kg, the Phase 2 dose) to evaluate the PFS rate at 12 weeks. As previously seen in melanoma patients, the 1.88 mg/kg dose was well tolerated in this patient population with the most common adverse events of rash, alopecia, and fatigue. The primary activity endpoint, which called for at least 5 of 25 (20%) patients in the Phase 2 study portion to be progression-free at 12 weeks, was met as 9 of 26 (35%) evaluable patients were progression-free at 12 weeks.

For all patients treated at the maximum dose level, tumor shrinkage was seen in 62% (16/26) and median PFS was 9.1 weeks. A subset of 10 patients had “triple negative disease,” a more aggressive breast cancer subtype that carries a high risk of relapse and reduced survival as well as limited therapeutic options due to lack of over-expression of HER2/neu, estrogen and progesterone receptors. In these patients, 78% (7/9) had some tumor shrinkage, 12-week PFS rate was 70% (7/10), and median PFS was 17.9 weeks. Tumor samples from a subset of patients across all dose groups were analyzed for GPNMB expression. The tumor samples from most patients showed evidence of stromal and/or tumor cell expression of GPNMB. The most common treatment-related toxicities were fatigue, rash, nausea, alopecia (hair loss), neutropenia and vomiting.

In December 2011, we completed enrollment of EMERGE, a randomized, multi-center Phase 2b study of CDX-011 in patients with heavily pre-treated, advanced, GPNMB-positive breast cancer. Patients were randomized (2:1) to receive either CDX-011 or single-agent “Investigator’s Choice” chemotherapy. Patients randomized to receive Investigator’s Choice were allowed to cross over to CDX-011 following disease progression. Activity endpoints include response rate (RR) and PFS.

In May 2012, we announced preliminary results from the EMERGE study which suggested that CDX-011 induces significant response rates compared to currently available therapies in patient subsets with advanced, refractory breast cancers with high GPNMB expression (expression in >25% of tumor cells) and in patients with triple negative breast cancer.  In the high GPNMB expressing patient population (n=25), treatment with CDX-011 resulted in a 32% overall response rate (ORR; includes confirmed and unconfirmed responses), whereas treatment with Investigator’s Choice (IC) single-agent chemotherapy (n=8) resulted in a 13% ORR.  In patients with triple negative breast cancer across all levels of GPNMB expression where treatment options are extremely limited, CDX-011 resulted in ORR of 21% (n=24) whereas treatment with IC resulted in ORR of 0% (n=9).  In patients with triple negative breast cancer who also highly express GPNMB, CDX-011 resulted in ORR of 36% (n=11) whereas treatment with IC resulted in IC ORR of 0% (n=3).  In patients with high GPNMB in the CDX-011 arm, a trend of improvement in PFS was observed.  In patients with both triple negative breast cancer and high GPNMB expression, a statistically significant PFS benefit was observed (p=0.0032).  Mature data from the EMERGE study is expected to be presented in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In 2009, Formatech, Inc., a third party contract manufacturer was engaged by us for the aseptic filling of one lot of our CDX-011 product candidate being used in our ongoing Phase 2b study. The CDX-011 lot from Formatech has passed all of the sterility testing performed during drug release and in subsequent stability studies. At the end of January 2012, we were notified by the FDA that because significant Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) violations were uncovered during inspection of Formatech, our Phase 2b study for CDX-011 was being placed on partial clinical hold. The FDA uncovered these findings during their inspections of the Formatech facility between August to October 2010 and July to August 2011. These inspections began approximately one year after the CDX-011 drug product was filled at Formatech. Specifically, the FDA requested that no new patients be treated with CDX-011. However, patients already undergoing treatment with CDX-011 could continue treatment using vials of CDX-011 from the lot filled by Formatech, after such patients were informed of the potential risk and reconsented to continued participation in the study. The FDA have also agreed that patients in the IC arm of the study who may become eligible to receive CDX-011 at the time of progression, may receive an older lot of CDX-011 until such time that the material is exhausted or expired.  As such, this partial clinical hold is not

expected to significantly impact the conduct or analysis of the Phase 2b study for purposes of determining next steps in our future development of CDX-011.

In addition, the FDA has agreed in concept that we could reprocess the remaining available vials of CDX-011 manufactured at Formatech at another cGMP contract manufacturer. The FDA’s final decision regarding the acceptability of this reprocessing will be made upon review of data concerning the stability and sterility of the reprocessed vials of CDX-011. If we are unsuccessful at reprocessing the available drug product or if FDA does not approve the use of these reprocessed vials, we will need to manufacture new drug product for subsequent clinical studies for CDX-011, which may cause a delay in the initiation of a subsequent trial with CDX-011.

Treatment of Metastatic Melanoma:  In 2009, we completed enrollment of 117 patients in a Phase 1/2 open-label, multi-center, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of CDX-011 for patients with un-resectable Stage III or Stage IV melanoma who had failed no more than one prior line of cytotoxic therapy. The MTD was determined to be 1.88 mg/kg administered intravenously (IV) once every three weeks. The study achieved its primary activity objective with an ORR in the Phase 2 cohort of 15% (5/34). Median PFS was 3.9 months. CDX-011 was generally well tolerated, with the most frequent treatment-related adverse events being rash, fatigue, alopecia (hair loss), pruritus, diarrhea and neuropathy. In the subset of patients with tumor biopsies, high levels of tumor expression of GPNMB appeared to correlate with favorable outcome. In the seven patients whose tumors were found to express high amounts of GPNMB, and who were treated at the maximum tolerated doses across all dosing schedules, median PFS was 4.9 months. The development of rash, which may be associated with the presence of GPNMB in the skin also seemed to correlate with greater PFS.

We intend to initially focus our resources on advancing CDX-011 in breast cancer while pursuing further development of CDX-011 in melanoma through collaborations and investigator sponsored studies.

CDX-1127

CDX-1127 is a human monoclonal antibody that targets CD27, a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily. We have entered into license agreements with the University of Southampton, UK for intellectual property related to uses of anti-CD27 antibodies and with Medarex for access to the UltiMab technology to develop and commercialize human antibodies to CD27. CD27 acts downstream from CD40 and may provide a novel way to regulate the immune responses. CD27 is a co-stimulatory molecule on T cells and is over-expressed in certain lymphomas and leukemias. CDX-1127 is an agonist antibody designed to have two potential therapeutic mechanisms. CDX-1127 has been shown to activate immune cells that can target and eliminate cancerous cells in tumor bearing mice and to directly kill or inhibit the growth of CD27 expressing lymphomas and leukemias in vitro and in vivo. Both mechanisms have been seen even at low doses in appropriate preclinical models.

In November 2011, we initiated an open label, dose-escalating Phase 1 study of CDX-1127 in patients with selected malignant solid tumors or hematologic cancers at multiple clinical sites in the United States. The Phase 1 study is designed to test five escalating doses of CDX-1127 to determine a Phase 2 dose for further development based on safety, tolerability, potential activity and immunogenicity. The study will accrue approximately 30 patients in each of the two arms, either selected refractory/relapsed solid tumors or lymphomas/leukemias known to express CD27. Patients will have received all appropriate prior therapies for their specific disease. The trial design incorporates both single dosing and multiple dosing regimens at each dose level. We expect to complete enrollment of the solid tumor arm of this study by the end of 2012.

CDX-1401

CDX-1401, developed from our APC Targeting Technology, is a fusion protein consisting of a fully human monoclonal antibody with specificity for the dendritic cell receptor, DEC-205, linked to the NY-ESO-1 tumor antigen. In humans, NY-ESO-1 has been detected in 20 — 30% of all melanoma, lung, esophageal, liver, gastric, prostate, ovarian and bladder cancers, thus representing a broad opportunity. This product is intended to selectively deliver the NY-ESO-1 antigen to dendritic cells for generating robust immune responses against cancer cells expressing NY-ESO-1. We are developing CDX-1401 for the treatment of malignant melanoma and a variety of solid tumors which express the proprietary cancer antigen NY-ESO-1, which we licensed from the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research in 2006. Preclinical studies have shown that CDX-1401 is effective for activation of human T cell responses against NY-ESO-1.

In September 2009, we initiated enrollment in a dose-escalating, multi-center, Phase 1 study aimed at determining the optimal dose for further development based on the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the CDX-1401 vaccine. The trial will evaluate three different doses of the vaccine in combination with TLR agonists poly-ICLC or Hiltonol™ and/or R848 or resiquimod.

In October 2010, we announced interim data for the first 20 patients enrolled in the study, 35% of whom had confirmed NY-ESO-1 expression. The interim data showed that six patients maintained stable disease and were eligible for multiple cycles of the treatment regimen, including 4 patients who have received 3 or more cycles (6 weeks of treatment followed by a 6 week rest), with stable disease of up to 11.5+ months. The treatment was well tolerated and there were no dose-limiting toxicities. Robust anti-NY-ESO-1 immunity was induced with the majority of the patients developing anti-NY-ESO-1 antibody responses and 39% of the patients having increases in NY-ESO-1 specific T cell responses, including both CD4 and CD8 responses. Importantly, the T cell responses were directed against multiple regions of the NY-ESO-1 antigen.

In February 2012, we completed enrollment in the trial and we expect to present results from the study in the fourth quarter of 2012.

CDX-301

CDX-301 is a FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt3L) stem cell mobilizer and dendritic cell growth factor. We licensed CDX-301 from Amgen in March 2009. CDX-301 is a potent hematopoietic cytokine that stimulates the expansion and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells. CDX-301 has demonstrated a unique capacity to increase the number of circulating dendritic cells in both laboratory and clinical studies. In addition, CDX-301 has shown impressive results in models of cancer, infectious diseases and inflammatory/autoimmune diseases. We believe CDX-301 may hold significant opportunity for synergistic development in combination with other proprietary molecules in our portfolio.

In January 2012, we initiated a dose-escalating Phase 1 study of CDX-301 in approximately 30 healthy subjects in collaboration with Rockefeller University. The Phase 1 study will evaluate seven different dosing regimens of CDX-301 to determine the appropriate dose for further development based on safety, tolerability, and biological activity.  We expect to complete accrual in the Phase 1 study in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Preclinical Programs

CDX-1135

CDX-1135 is a molecule that inhibits a part of the human immune system called the complement system. The complement system is a series of proteins that are important initiators of the body’s acute inflammatory response against disease, infection and injury. Excessive complement activation also plays a role in some persistent inflammatory conditions. CDX-1135 is a soluble form of naturally occurring Complement Receptor 1 that has been shown to inhibit the activation of the complement cascade in animal models and in human clinical trials. In preclinical studies, CDX-1135 has been shown to inhibit both the classical and alternative pathways of complement activation.

Dense Deposit Disease (DDD) is a rare and devastating disease that is caused by uncontrolled activation of the alternative pathway of complement and leads to progressive kidney damage in children. There is currently no treatment for patients with DDD and about half progress to end-stage renal disease within 10 years. Because DDD recurs in virtually all patients who receive a kidney transplant, transplantation is not a viable option for these patients. In animal models of DDD, CDX-1135 treatment showed evidence of reversal of kidney damage. We believe that regulating the complement system could have therapeutic and prophylactic applications in DDD and several other acute and chronic conditions, including organ transplantation, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS), Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemaglobinuria (PNH), and myasthenia gravis.

CDX-1135 is currently being studied in DDD under an investigator sponsored IND and initial experience indicates that CDX-1135 limits complement abnormalities. In 2011, we completed process development activities and in 2011 and 2012 we manufactured multiple runs of GMP clinical drug product at our Fall River manufacturing facility in preparation for our Phase 2 pilot study.  Based on discussion to date with the FDA, we are currently planning to initiate a Phase 2 pilot study of CDX-1135 in a small number of DDD patients to determine the appropriate dose and regimen for further clinical development based on safety, tolerability and biological activity in the second half of 2012.

CDX-014

CDX-014 is a fully-human monoclonal ADC that targets TIM-1, a molecule that is highly expressed on renal and ovarian cancers with minimal expression in normal tissues. The antibody, CDX-014, is linked to a potent chemotherapeutic, monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), using Seattle Genetics’ proprietary technology. The ADC is designed to be stable in the bloodstream, but to release MMAE upon internalization into TIM-1-expressing tumor cells, resulting in a targeted cell-killing effect. CDX-014 has shown potent activity in preclinical models of ovarian and renal cancer.

Marketed Products

Rotavirus is a major cause of diarrhea and vomiting in infants and children. In 1997, we licensed our oral rotavirus strain to GlaxoSmithKline plc (Glaxo) and Glaxo assumed responsibility for all subsequent clinical trials and all other development activities. Glaxo gained approval for its rotavirus vaccine, Rotarix, in Mexico in July 2004, which represented the first in a series of worldwide approvals and commercial launches for the product leading up to the approval in Europe in 2006 and in the U.S. in 2008. We licensed-in our rotavirus strain in 1995 and owe a license fee of 30% to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (CCH) on net royalties received from Glaxo. We are obligated to maintain a license with CCH with respect to the Glaxo agreement. The term of the Glaxo agreement is through the expiration of the last of the relevant patents covered by the agreement, although Glaxo may terminate the agreement upon 90 days prior written notice. The last relevant patent is scheduled to expire in December 2012. No additional milestone payments are due from Glaxo under the agreement.

In May 2005, we entered into an agreement whereby an affiliate of Paul Royalty Fund II, L.P. (PRF) purchased a 70% interest in the milestone payments and net royalties that we will receive on the development and worldwide sales of Rotarix. We have received a total of $60 million in milestone payments under the PRF agreement. No additional milestone payments are due from PRF under the agreement. The PRF agreement terminates in December 2012, unless otherwise extended. We would retain approximately 65% of the royalties on worldwide sales of Rotarix if PRF receives 2.45 times the aggregate cash payments of $60 million it made to us prior to December 2012. We do not expect this to occur.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our critical accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and there have been no material changes to such critical accounting policies.  We believe our most critical accounting policies include accounting for business combinations, revenue recognition, impairment of long-lived assets, research and development expenses and stock-based compensation expense.
