`
`NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., and LOS ANGELES, May 21, 2009 /PRNewswire-
`FirstCall Via COMTEX News Network/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) and
`Cougar Biotechnology, Inc. (Nasdaq: CGRB), a development stage
`biopharmaceutical company with a specific focus on oncology, today announced a
`definitive agreement whereby Cougar Biotechnology will be acquired for
`approximately $1.0 billion in a cash tender offer.
`
`Cougar Biotechnology, which has compounds in development for the treatment of
`prostate cancer, as well as breast cancer and multiple myeloma, will work with
`Ortho Biotech Oncology Research & Development, a unit of Centocor Research &
`Development, Inc., a Johnson & Johnson company.
`
`Under the terms of the agreement, Johnson & Johnson will initiate a tender offer,
`through a new wholly-owned subsidiary, to purchase all outstanding shares of
`Cougar Biotechnology at $43 per share. The tender offer is conditioned on the
`tender of a majority of the outstanding shares of Cougar Biotechnology's common
`stock. The closing is conditioned on clearance under the Hart—Scott—Rodino
`Antitrust Improvements Act and other customary closing conditions. The $970
`million estimated net value of the transaction is based on Cougar Biotechnology's
`20.8 million shares outstanding, net of estimated cash on hand at closing. The
`boards of directors of both Johnson & Johnson and Cougar Biotechnology have
`approved the transaction.
`
`Cougar Biotechnology is currently conducting two Phase III trials for abiraterone
`acetate, a late stage, first-in-class compound for the treatment of prostate cancer.
`The first Phase III trial is testing abiraterone acetate in patients with metastatic,
`castration-resistant prostate cancer who have progressed after docetaxel-based
`chemotherapy has failed. The second Phase III trial is studying abiraterone acetate
