OTHER EVENTS. On October 18, 1999, Genzyme Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation, and Cell Genesys, Inc., a Delaware corporation, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which the parties will effect a business combination through a merger of Cell Genesys with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genzyme. The acquisition, which will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, is expected to close in the first quarter of 2000. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, upon consummation of the merger, each outstanding share of Cell Genesys common stock will convert into the right to receive a fraction of a share of Genzyme General Division common stock equal to the exchange ratio. The exchange ratio will equal $10.00 divided by the average of the per share closing prices of Genzyme General Division common stock for the 20 trading days ending on the fifth trading day prior to the closing, provided, that the exchange ratio will not be less than 0.1814 nor greater than 0.3175. Each outstanding share of Cell Genesys Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will convert into one share of a substantially equivalent class of Genzyme preferred stock. Consummation of the merger is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among others, the adoption of the Agreement and Plan of Merger by the Cell Genesys stockholders and the receipt of regulatory approvals. The preceding description of the Agreement and Plan of Merger is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, which is incorporated by reference herein. The Board of Directors of Genzyme has allocated to Genzyme's Molecular Oncology Division the Cell Genesys cancer programs and product candidates and $60 million in cash. In exchange for these assets, approximately 12.5 million shares of Genzyme Molecular Oncology Division common stock will be reserved as designated shares for the benefit of Genzyme's General Division.

-iv- EXHIBITS Exhibit A Form of Agreement of Joinder to be executed by Merger Sub Exhibit B Form of Affiliate Letter AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this "Agreement") dated as of October 18, 1999 is between Genzyme Corporation ("Genzyme"), a Massachusetts corporation, and Cell Genesys, Inc. ("CGI"), a Delaware corporation. The parties wish to effect a business combination through a merger (the "Merger") of CGI with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genzyme to be formed as a Massachusetts corporation ("Merger Sub") on the terms and conditions set forth herein. For United States Federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger shall qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and that this Agreement constitute a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the income tax regulations promulgated under the Code. For financial accounting purposes, it is intended that the Merger will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In consideration of the mutual representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION 1 - THE MERGER 1.1 THE MERGER. (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, and in accordance with the Business Corporation Law of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the "MBCL") and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), CGI shall be merged with and into Merger Sub. The Merger shall occur at the Effective Time (as defined herein). Following the Merger, Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving corporation (sometimes referred herein as the "Surviving Corporation") and the separate corporate existence of CGI shall cease. (b) Prior to the Effective Time, Genzyme shall cause Merger Sub to be incorporated as a Massachusetts corporation, to adopt a charter and other organizational documents as may be necessary or advisable and which shall be appropriate for effecting the purposes of this Agreement, and to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to an Agreement of Joinder substantially in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A. (c) The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be "Cell Genesys, Inc." The purpose of the Surviving Corporation is to develop, manufacture and sell human health care products and to engage generally in any business that may lawfully be carried on by a corporation formed under Chapter 156B of the General Laws of Massachusetts. 1.2 EFFECTIVE TIME. As soon as practicable after satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the Merger, the parties shall cause articles of merger (the "Articles of Merger") with respect to the Merger to be filed and recorded in accordance with Section 79 of the MBCL and a certificate of merger (the "Certificate of Merger") with respect to the Merger to be filed and recorded in accordance with the DGCL, and shall take all such further actions as may be required by law to make the Merger effective. The Merger shall be effective at such time as the Articles of Merger and the Certificate of Merger are duly filed with the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the Secretary of State of Delaware, respectively, in accordance with the MBCL and the DGCL, or at such later time as is specified in the Articles of Merger and the Certificate of Merger (the "Effective Time"). Immediately prior to the filing of the Articles of Merger and the Certificate of Merger, a closing (the "Closing") will be held at the offices of Palmer & Dodge LLP, One Beacon Street, Boston, Massachusetts (or such other place as the parties may agree) for the purpose of confirming the foregoing. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to herein as the "Closing Date." 1.3 EFFECTS OF THE MERGER. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Sections 80 and 81 of the MBCL and Sections 259, 260 and 261 of the DGCL. 1.4 ARTICLES OF ORGANIZATION AND BY-LAWS. The Articles of Organization and By-Laws of Merger Sub, in each case as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Articles of Organization and By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed as provided therein or by applicable law. 1.5 DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. The directors and officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case, until the earlier of his or her resignation or removal or otherwise ceasing to be a director or officer, as the case may be, or until his or her respective successor is duly elected and qualified. 1.6 CONVERSION OF COMMON STOCK (a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Genzyme, CGI or Merger Sub: (i) Subject to payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 1.6(a)(ii), each share of CGI common stock, $0.001 par value per share ("CGI Common Stock") outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than shares held by CGI or any CGI Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.4(a)), shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into and become the right to receive a fraction of a share of Genzyme General Division Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share ("GGD Stock") equal to the Exchange Ratio (the "Common Stock Consideration"), and a corresponding percentage of a GGD Stock Purchase Right (a "GGD Purchase Right") under Genzyme's Amended and Restated Renewed Rights Agreement ("Genzyme's Rights Plan"). The "Exchange Ratio" shall mean $10.00 divided by the GGD Share Price; provided, however, that (A) if the GGD Share Price is greater than $55.13, then the Exchange Ratio shall equal 0.1814 and (B) if the GGD Share Price is less than $31.50 then the Exchange Ratio shall equal 0.3175. The "GGD Share Price" shall mean the average (rounded to the nearest cent) of the per share closing prices of GGD Stock as reported by the Nasdaq National Market (the "Nasdaq") for the twenty trading days ending on the fifth trading day prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if within the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Closing Date, there is a change in the number of issued and outstanding shares of GGD Stock or CGI Common Stock as the result of a reclassification, subdivision, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or stock dividend, the Exchange Ratio shall be equitably adjusted to eliminate the effect of such event. 2 (ii) No fractional shares of GGD Stock shall be issued pursuant to this Agreement. In lieu of fractional shares, each stockholder who would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a share of GGD Stock hereunder (after aggregating all fractional shares to be received by such stockholder), shall receive, without interest, an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) determined by multiplying such fraction by the per share closing price of GGD Stock as reported by the Nasdaq on the trading day immediately preceding the Effective Time. (b) All shares of CGI Common Stock held at the Effective Time by CGI or by a CGI Subsidiary shall be cancelled and extinguished and no payment shall be made with respect thereto. (c) Each share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue to be outstanding following, and shall be unaffected by, the Merger. 1.7 CGI OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND PURCHASE RIGHTS (a) At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of CGI Common Stock (the "CGI Options") under CGI's 1989 Incentive Stock Option Plan or CGI's 1998 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "CGI Stock Option Plans"), whether or not then exercisable, will be assumed by Genzyme. Each CGI Option so assumed by Genzyme under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable CGI Stock Option Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights), except that (i) each CGI Option will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of shares of GGD Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of CGI Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such CGI Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of GGD Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of GGD Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed CGI Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of CGI Common Stock at which such CGI Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. After the Effective Time, Genzyme will issue to each holder of an outstanding CGI Option a notice describing the foregoing assumption of such CGI Options by Genzyme. The adjustments provided herein with respect to any CGI Options which are "incentive stock options" as defined in Section 422 of the Code shall be, and are intended to be, effected in a manner which is consistent with Section 424(a) of the Code so as to preserve the benefits of such "incentive stock options." (b) At the Effective Time, each outstanding warrant (the "CGI Warrants") to purchase shares of CGI Common Stock, whether or not then exercisable, will be assumed by Genzyme. Each CGI Warrant so assumed by Genzyme under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable CGI Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights), except that (i) each CGI Warrant will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of shares of GGD Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of CGI Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such CGI Warrant 3 immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole number of shares of GGD Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of GGD Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed CGI Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of CGI Common Stock at which such CGI Common Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole cent. After the Effective Time, Genzyme will issue to each holder of an outstanding CGI Warrant a notice describing the foregoing assumption of such CGI Warrant by Genzyme. CGI shall timely give to relevant holders of CGI Warrants any notice required under the terms of such warrants to terminate such warrants or to reduce the exercise period with respect to such warrants in connection with the Merger. (c) CGI shall amend its Amended 1992 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "CGI Purchase Plan") so that as of the Effective Time (i) the CGI Purchase Plan is terminated and (ii) rights of participants in the CGI Purchase Plan with respect to any offering period then underway under the CGI Purchase Plan shall be determined by treating the last business day prior to the Effective Time as the last day of such offering period and by making such other pro-rata adjustments as may be necessary to reflect the reduced offering period but otherwise treating such offering period as a fully effective and completed offering period for all purposes of such plan. Prior to the Effective Time, CGI shall take all actions (including, if appropriate, amending the terms of the CGI Purchase Plan) that are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.7(c). 1.8 CONVERSION OF SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK. (a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Genzyme or CGI, each outstanding share of CGI Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share ("CGI Series B Convertible Preferred Stock"), other than (x) shares held by Genzyme, CGI or any CGI Subsidiary which shall be cancelled and extinguished and no payment will be made with respect thereto and (y) shares for which the holder thereof has validly exercised redemption rights pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, shall be converted into the right to receive one share of preferred stock of Genzyme ("Genzyme Replacement Preferred Stock") having terms determined in accordance with the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, as modified as may be necessary or appropriate such that, in the reasonable judgment of Genzyme, Genzyme stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated hereby is not required under the Marketplace Rules of Nasdaq (or the rules of any exchange on which the GGD Stock is then quoted). (b) At the Effective Time, each right to purchase an additional share of CGI Series B Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated November 13, 1997 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), shall become the right to purchase a share of Genzyme Replacement Preferred Stock. 1.9 CLOSING OF CGI TRANSFER BOOKS. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of CGI shall be closed and no further registration of transfers of shares of CGI Common Stock or CGI Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall thereafter be made. On or after the Effective Time, any Certificates presented to the Exchange Agent or Genzyme for any reason shall be 4 converted into the right to receive the Common Stock Consideration with respect to the shares of CGI Common Stock formerly represented thereby and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 1.14. A "Certificate" is a stock certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of CGI Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive the Common Stock Consideration. 1.10 EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES. Genzyme shall authorize one or more persons to act as Exchange Agent hereunder (the "Exchange Agent"). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Genzyme shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail, to all former holders of record of shares of CGI Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive shares of GGD Stock pursuant to Section 1.6(a)(i), instructions for surrendering their Certificates in exchange for a certificate representing shares of GGD Stock (and the associated GGD Purchase Right) and cash in lieu of fractional shares. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss of, and title to, the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent) and other requested documents and in accordance with the instructions thereon, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (a) a certificate representing that number of whole shares of GGD Stock into which the shares of CGI Common Stock theretofore represented by the Certificates so surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (b) a check in the amount of any cash due pursuant to Section 1.6(a)(ii) or Section 1.14. No interest will be paid or will accrue on any such amounts. Until surrendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.10, each Certificate shall represent for all purposes only the right to receive Common Stock Consideration and, if applicable, amounts under Section 1.14. Shares of GGD Stock into which shares of CGI Common Stock shall be converted in the Merger at the Effective Time shall be deemed to have been issued at the Effective Time. If any certificates representing shares of GGD Stock are to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that the person requesting such exchange shall deliver to the Exchange Agent all documents necessary to evidence and effect such transfer and shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate representing shares of GGD Stock in a name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or establish to the satisfaction of he Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Beginning the date which is six months following the Closing Date, Genzyme shall act as the Exchange Agent and thereafter any holder of an unsurrendered Certificate shall look solely to Genzyme for any amounts to which such holder may be due, subject to applicable law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any portion of the Common Stock Consideration remaining unclaimed five years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any governmental entity) shall, to the extent permitted by law, become the property of Genzyme free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto. To the extent required, after the Effective Time, Genzyme will issue certificates representing shares of Genzyme Replacement Preferred Stock upon surrender for cancellation of certificates theretofore representing shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, together with other reasonably requested documentation in accordance with the provisions set forth herein. 1.11 NO LIABILITY. Neither the Surviving Corporation nor the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or 5 cash payments delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable escheat, abandoned property or similar law. 1.12 LOST CERTIFICATES. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Genzyme, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Genzyme may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, applicable certificates representing shares of GGD Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares and any amounts due pursuant to Section 1.14. 1.13 WITHHOLDING RIGHTS. Genzyme shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of CGI Common Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Genzyme, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of CGI Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. 1.14 DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO UNEXCHANGED SHARES. No dividend or other distribution declared with respect to GGD Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to holders of unsurrendered Certificates until such holders surrender such Certificates. Upon the surrender of such Certificates in accordance with Section 1.10, there shall be paid to such holders, promptly after such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions, without interest, declared with a record date after the Effective Time and not paid because of the failure to surrender such Certificates for exchange. 1.15 FURTHER ASSURANCES. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of CGI, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of CGI, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger. 1.16 ALTERNATIVE STRUCTURE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, prior to the mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus (as defined in Section 4.6(a)), CGI shall be entitled to revise the structure of the Merger as a direct merger of CGI with and into Genzyme if CGI is advised by Wilson, Sonsini, Goodrich and Rosati, Professional Corporation, that such restructuring is necessary for such firm to deliver the opinion contemplated by Section 7.2; provided that (a) the revised structure, in the opinion of Genzyme's counsel, will not subject Genzyme to adverse tax consequences, change the consideration payable by Genzyme, or otherwise adversely affect Genzyme, (b) the restructuring is not necessary due to CGI violating a covenant contained herein and (c) if Palmer & Dodge LLP is willing to provide the opinion contemplated by Section 7.2, an opinion from Palmer & Dodge LLP will satisfy the condition in that Section, and CGI shall not be entitled to revise the structure of the Merger pursuant to this Section. This Agreement and any related documents shall be appropriately amended in order to 6 reflect any such revised structure, including revisions reflecting the need for any required vote by Genzyme stockholders.

All of such contracts and other agreements and all of the contracts required to be set forth in SECTION 2.12 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule are valid, subsisting, in full force and effect, binding upon CGI or the applicable CGI Subsidiary, and, to the best knowledge of CGI, binding upon the other parties thereto in accordance with their terms, and CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries are not in default under any of them, nor does any condition exist that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default thereunder. (b) SECTION 2.12 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of the following contracts and other agreements to which CGI or any CGI Subsidiary is a party or by or to which they or their assets or properties are bound or subject: (i) any agreement (A) involving research, development or the license of Proprietary Rights (as defined in Section 2.13), (B) granting a right of first refusal, or right of first offer or comparable right with respect to Proprietary Rights, (C) relating to a joint venture, partnership or other arrangement involving a sharing of profits, losses, costs or liabilities with another person or entity, (D) providing for the payment or receipt by CGI or a CGI Subsidiary of milestone payments or royalties, or (E) that individually requires aggregate expenditures by CGI and/or any CGI Subsidiary in any one year of more than $150,000; (ii) any indenture, trust agreement, loan agreement or note that involves or evidences outstanding indebtedness, obligations or liabilities for borrowed money in excess of $150,000; (iii) any agreement of surety, guarantee or indemnification that involves potential obligations in excess of $150,000; (iv) any agreement that limits or restricts CGI, any CGI Subsidiary or any of their affiliates or successors in competing or engaging in any line of business, in any geographic area or with any person; 12 (v) any interest rate, equity or other swap or derivative instrument; or (vi) any agreement obligating CGI to register securities under the Securities Act. (c) To the best of CGI's knowledge, no executive officer or director of CGI has (whether directly or indirectly through another entity in which such person has a material interest, other than as the holder of less than 2% of a class of securities of a publicly traded company) any material interest in any property or assets of CGI (except as a stockholder) or a CGI Subsidiary, any competitor, customer, supplier or agent of CGI or a CGI Subsidiary or any person that is currently a party to any material contract or agreement with CGI or a CGI Subsidiary. 2.13 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. CGI, the CGI Subsidiaries and the CGI Joint Ventures own, or are licensed to use, or otherwise have the right to use all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, franchises, inventions, copyrights, and all other technology and intellectual property (including, without limitation, biological materials), all registrations of any of the foregoing, or applications therefor, and all grants and licenses or other rights running to or from CGI, a CGI Subsidiary or a CGI Joint Venture relating to any of the foregoing that are material to their businesses as presently conducted, including those that are related to the gene activation technology described in the CGI 10-K (collectively, the "Proprietary Rights"), subject to out licenses listed on the CGI Disclosure Schedule. A list of all copyrights, trademarks, servicemarks, tradenames, patents and patent applications held by CGI or a CGI Subsidiary has been delivered previously to Genzyme and is included in SECTION 2.13 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule. All patents, registered trademarks and copyrights set forth on the list referred to above are valid and subsisting. CGI is not aware of any basis for any claim by any third party that the businesses of CGI, the CGI Subsidiaries or the CGI Joint Ventures infringe upon the proprietary rights of others, nor has CGI, any CGI Subsidiary or, to the best knowledge of CGI, any CGI Joint Venture received any written notice or claim of infringement from any third party. CGI is not aware of any existing or threatened infringement by any third party on, or any competing claim of right to use or own any of, the Proprietary Rights. Except as disclosed in SECTION 2.13 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule, to the best of CGI's knowledge, CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries have the unencumbered right to sell their products and services (whether now offered for sale or under development) free from any royalty or other financial obligations to third parties. To the best knowledge of CGI, none of the activities of the employees of CGI or any CGI Subsidiary on behalf of such entity violates any agreement or arrangement which any such employees have with former employers. The policies and procedures of CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries designed to establish and protect the Proprietary Rights are described in SECTION 2.13 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule. To the best of CGI's knowledge, all employees and consultants who contributed to the discovery or development of any of the Proprietary Rights (other than Proprietary Rights licensed to CGI or a CGI Subsidiary by any party other than a consultant to CGI or CGI Subsidiary) did so either (a) within the scope of his or her employment such that, in accordance with applicable law, all Proprietary Rights arising therefrom became the exclusive property of CGI or the CGI Subsidiary or (b) pursuant to written agreements assigning all Proprietary Rights arising therefrom to CGI or the CGI Subsidiary. 13 2.14 INSURANCE. SECTION 2.14 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of all policies or binders of fire, liability, product liability, workmen's compensation, vehicular, directors' and officers' and other insurance held by or on behalf of CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries. Such policies and binders are in full force and effect, are reasonably believed to be adequate for the businesses engaged in by CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries and are in conformity with the requirements of all leases or other agreements to which CGI or the relevant CGI Subsidiary is a party and, to the best knowledge of CGI, are valid and enforceable in accordance with their terms. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary is in default with respect to any provision contained in such policy or binder nor has any of CGI or a CGI Subsidiary failed to give any notice or present any claim under any such policy or binder in due and timely fashion. There are no outstanding unpaid claims under any such policy or binder. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has received notice of cancellation or non-renewal of any such policy or binder. 2.15 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. (a) Except as disclosed in SECTION 2.15 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule, to the best of CGI's knowledge. all computer hardware, firmware, software, systems, databases, devices, machinery, equipment and related items (including embedded microcontrollers in non-computer equipment), embedded within their products, and/or necessary for CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries to carry on their businesses as presented conducted ("Systems") are Year 2000 Compliant. For purposes of this Agreement, "Year 2000 Compliant" means, when used with respect to Systems, that such Systems, whether used alone or in combination, will correctly differentiate between years, in different centuries, and will accurately process date/time data (including, where applicable, calculating, comparing and sequencing) from, into and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including leap year calculations and unusual date situations, without interruption. (b) Schedule 2.15 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule sets forth (i) an assessment of all Systems that could be adversely affected by a failure to be Year 2000 Compliant on a timely basis and (ii) a plan and time line for becoming Year 2000 Compliant. Based on such assessment, CGI estimates that the total cost of rendering the Systems Year 2000 Compliant (exclusive of normal system upgrades and replacements) will not be material. 2.16 COMMERCIAL RELATIONSHIPS. The relationships of CGI, the CGI Subsidiaries and the CGI Joint Ventures with their collaborators and contract manufacturers are generally good commercial working relationships. Except as set forth in SECTION 2.16 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule, no such entity has canceled or otherwise terminated its relationship with CGI, a CGI Subsidiary or a CGI Joint Venture or has, during the last twelve months, materially altered its relationship with CGI, a CGI Subsidiary or a CGI Joint Venture. Except as set forth in SECTION 2.16 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule, CGI does not know of any plan or intention of any such entity, and has not received any written threat or notice from any such entity, to terminate, cancel or otherwise materially and adversely modify its relationship with CGI, a CGI Subsidiary or a CGI Joint Venture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, under CGI's collaboration with Japan Tobacco Inc. ("JT") governed by the GVAX-TM- Agreement (the "JT Agreement") by and between JT and CGI, effective as of December 18, 1998, (a) CGI reasonably expects the Committed Funding Amount (as such term is defined in the JT Agreement) in each of 2000 and 14 2001 to be at least equal to the applicable amount set forth in the table in Section 6.1.6(a) of the JT Agreement, (b) CGI reasonably expects to receive on or about December 18, 1999 (or, if after December 20, 1999, has previously received) a payment from JT equal to $2.5 million pursuant to Section 6.2.1 of the JT Agreement and (c) JT has not terminated, has not indicated an intention to terminate and has not proposed to materially modify the JT Agreement or any part thereof. 2.17 TAX MATTERS (a) For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Tax" (and, with correlative meaning, "Taxes" and "Taxable") means all United States federal, state, and local, and all foreign, income, profits, franchise, gross receipts, payroll, transfer, sales, employment, use, property, excise, value added, ad valorem, estimated, stamp, alternative or add-on minimum, recapture, environmental, withholding and any other taxes, charges, duties, impositions or assessments, together with all interest, penalties, and additions imposed on or with respect to such amounts, including any liability for taxes of a predecessor entity. "Tax Return" means any return, declaration, report, claim for refund, or information return or statement filed or required to be filed with any taxing authority in connection with the determination, assessment, collection or imposition of any Taxes. (b) All Tax Returns required to be filed on or before the date hereof by or with respect to CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries have been filed within the time and in the manner prescribed by law. All such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects, and all Taxes owed by CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries, whether or not shown on any Tax Return, have been paid. CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries file Tax Returns in all jurisdictions where they are required to so file. (c) There are no liens or other encumbrances with respect to Taxes upon any of the assets or properties of CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries, other than with respect to Taxes not yet due and payable. (d) No audit is currently pending with respect to any Tax Return of CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries, nor is CGI or its officers or directors aware of any information which has caused or should cause them to believe that an audit by any tax authority may be forthcoming. No deficiency for any Taxes has been proposed in writing against CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries, which deficiency has not been paid in full. No issue relating to CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries or involving any Tax for which CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries might be liable has been resolved in favor of any taxing authority in any audit or examination which, by application of the same principles, could reasonably be expected to result in a deficiency for Taxes of CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries for any subsequent period, and neither CGI nor its officers or directors knows of any other basis for the assertion of such a deficiency. (e) There are no outstanding agreements, waivers or arrangements extending the statutory period of limitation applicable to any claim for, or the period for the collection or assessment of, Taxes due from or with respect to CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries for any taxable period; no power of attorney granted by or with respect to CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries relating to Taxes is currently in force; and no extension of time for filing any Tax Return required to be filed by or on behalf of CGI or any CGI Subsidiary is in force. CGI has made available to 15 Genzyme complete and correct copies of all income Tax Returns, audit reports and statements of deficiencies for each of the last three taxable years filed by or issued to or with respect to CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries. (f) No consent to the application of Section 341(f)(2) of the Code (or any predecessor provision) has been made or filed by or with respect to CGI or the CGI Subsidiary or any of their assets or properties. (g) CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries are not and have never been a party to or bound by, nor do they have or have they ever had any obligation under, any Tax sharing agreement or similar contract or arrangement. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has any liability for the Taxes of any other person under Treasury Regulation 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law), as a transferee or successor, by contract, or otherwise. (h) Except as set forth in the CGI Disclosure Schedule, there is no contract or agreement, plan or arrangement obligating CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries to make any payment that would not be deductible by reason of Section 162(m) or 280G of the Code. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has agreed to, or is required to, make any adjustments under Section 481(a) of the Code by reason of a change in accounting method or otherwise. 2.18 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. (a) SECTION 2.18 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete list of all pension, savings, profit sharing, retirement, deferred compensation, employment, welfare, fringe benefit, insurance, short and long term disability, incentive, bonus, stock, vacation pay, severance pay and similar plans, programs or arrangements (the "Plans"), including without limitation all employee benefit plans as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") maintained by CGI or the CGI Subsidiaries or to which CGI or any of the CGI Subsidiaries are parties or required to contribute. (b) CGI has delivered or made available to Genzyme current, accurate and complete copies of (i) each Plan that has been reduced to writing and all amendments thereto, (ii) a summary of the material terms of each Plan that has not been reduced to writing, including all amendments thereto, (iii) the summary plan description for each Plan subject to Title I of ERISA, and in the case of each other Plan, any similar employee summary (including but not limited to any employee handbook description), (iv) for each Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) or Section 501(c)(9) of the Code, the most recent determination letter or exemption determination issued by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), (v) for each Plan with respect to which a Form 5500 series annual report/return is required to be filed, the most recently filed such annual report/return and annual report/return for the two preceding years, together with all schedules and exhibits, (vi) all insurance contracts, administrative services contracts, trust agreements, investment management agreements or similar agreements maintained in connections with any Plan, (vii) copies of any correspondence from the IRS, Department of Labor ("DOL") or other U.S. government agency or department relating to an audit or an asserted or assessed penalty with respect to a Plan or relating to requested relief from any liability or penalty (including, but not limited to, any correspondence relating to the IRS's EPCRS, APRSC, VCR, CAP or Walk-in CAP programs or the DOL's amnesty programs for late 16 filers and non-filers), (viii) for each Plan that is a defined benefit pension plan, copies of the most recent actuarial valuation report and actuarial valuation report for the three preceding years, (ix) for each Plan that is intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a), copies of compliance testing results (nondiscrimination testing (401(a)(4), ADP, ACP, multiple use), 402(g), 415 and top-heavy tests) for the most recent plan year and three preceding plan years, and (x) copies of COBRA and HIPPA forms and notices used for each Plan that is a group health plan. No employee benefit handbook or similar employee communication relating to any Plan nor any written communication of benefits under such Plan describes the Plan in a manner materially inconsistent with the documents and summary plan descriptions relating to such Plan that have been delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence. (c) There is no entity (other than CGI or any CGI Subsidiary) that together with CGI or any CGI Subsidiary would be treated as a single-employer within the meaning of Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code or Section 4001(b) of ERISA. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has ever maintained, contributed to or incurred any liability under any "multiemployer plan" as defined in Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA or a "multiple employer plan" as defined in Section 413(c) of the Code. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has incurred any liability under Sections 4062, 4063 or 4201 of ERISA. (d) Each Plan maintained by CGI or a CGI Subsidiary which is intended to be qualified under either Section 401(a) or 501(c)(9) of the Code ("Qualified Plans") is so qualified. Each Plan has been administered in all material respects in accordance with the terms of such Plan and the provisions of any and all statutes, orders or governmental rules or regulations, including without limitation ERISA and the Code, and to the knowledge of CGI, nothing has been done or not done with respect to any Plan that could result in any liability on the part of CGI or any CGI Subsidiary under Title I of ERISA or Chapter 43 of the Code. All reports, forms and notices required to be filed with respect to each Plan, including without limitation Form 5500 series annual reports/returns and PBGC Form 1s, have been timely filed. All contributions, premiums and other amounts due to or in connection with each Plan under the terms of the Plan or applicable law have been timely made, and provision has been made on the balance sheet included in the CGI 10-Q for such contributions, premiums and other amounts that were due as of the date of the balance sheet but were attributable to service before such date. (e) No "reportable event" as defined in Section 4043 of ERISA has occurred with respect to any Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA. With respect to each Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, such Plan has no unfunded benefit liabilities and such Plan could be terminated in a "standard termination" under Section 4041(b) of ERISA on or before the Effective Time without any additional contribution from any contributing employer (but disregarding any other prerequisites for terminating such Plan). With respect to each Plan subject to Section 412 of the Code, there is no accumulated funding deficiency (whether or not waived) under such Plan. (f) All claims for benefits incurred by employees on or before the Closing Date are or will be fully covered by third-party insurance policies or programs. Except for continuation of health coverage to the extent required under Section 4980B of the Code or Section 601 et seq. of ERISA, other applicable law or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, there are no obligations under any Plan providing benefits after termination of employment. 17 (g) Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has contracted with any "leased employee" within the meaning of Section 414 of the Code or any "independent contractor". (h) Except for individual employment agreements, each Plan can be amended, modified or terminated without advanced notice to or consent by any employee, former employee or beneficiary, except as required by law. 2.19 EMPLOYEE RELATIONS. (a) CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries generally enjoy good employer-employee relations. Except as indicated in SECTION 2.19 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule, upon termination of the employment of any employees, none of CGI, the CGI Subsidiaries nor Genzyme will be liable, by reason of the Merger or anything done prior to the Effective Time, to any of such employees for severance pay or any other payments (other than accrued salary, vacation or sick pay in accordance with normal policies). True and complete information as to all current directors, officers, employees or consultants of CGI and the CGI Subsidiaries including, in each case, name, current job title and annual rate of compensation has been made available previously to Genzyme. (b) No work stoppage or labor strike against CGI or any CGI Subsidiary is pending or threatened. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary is involved in or, to the knowledge of CGI, threatened with, any labor dispute, grievance, or litigation relating to labor, safety or discrimination matters involving any employee, including without limitation charges of unfair labor practices or discrimination complaints, that, if adversely determined, would result in material liability to CGI. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has engaged in any unfair labor practices within the meaning of the National Labor Relations Act that would, directly or indirectly result in material liability to CGI. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary is presently, nor has it been in the past, a party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement or union contract with respect to employees other than as set forth in SECTION 2.19 of the CGI Disclosure Schedule and no collective bargaining agreement is being negotiated by CGI or any CGI Subsidiary. No union organizing campaign or activity with respect to non-union employees of CGI or any CGI Subsidiary is ongoing, pending or, to the best knowledge of CGI, threatened. 2.20 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS (a) Except as, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a CGI Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither CGI nor any of the CGI Subsidiaries has violated, is in violation of, or been notified that it is in violation of, any Environmental Law, (ii) except in full compliance with Environmental Laws, neither CGI nor any of the CGI Subsidiaries has generated, used, handled, transported or stored any Hazardous Materials or shipped any Hazardous Materials for treatment, storage or disposal at any other site or facility; (iii) there has been no generation, use, handling, storage or disposal of any Hazardous Materials in violation of any Environmental Law at any site owned or operated by, or premises leased by, CGI or any of the CGI Subsidiaries during the period of CGI's or such CGI Subsidiary's ownership, operation or lease or, to the best of CGI's knowledge, prior thereto, nor has there been or is there threatened any Release of any Environmental Contaminants into, on, at or from any such site or premises, including without limitation into the ambient air, groundwater, surface 18 water, soils or subsurface strata, during such period or, to the best of CGI's knowledge, prior thereto in violation of any Environmental Law or which created or will create an obligation to report or respond in any way to such Release.

No such site or premises is listed, or to CGI's knowledge, proposed for listing, on the National Priorities List or the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System, both as provided under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), or any comparable state or local governmental lists. Neither CGI nor any CGI Subsidiary has received written notification of, and CGI has no knowledge of, any potential responsibility of CGI or any CGI Subsidiary pursuant to the provisions of (i) CERCLA, (ii) any similar Federal, state, local or other Environmental Law, or (iii) any order issued pursuant to the provisions of any such Environmental Law with respect to Environmental Contaminants used, manufactured, generated, stored, or treated at, transported from, or disposed of on, any site currently or formerly owned or operated by, or premises currently or formerly leased by, CGI or any CGI Subsidiary.
