`

`ECLARATION __________________________ , ,
`
`We. Thomas Machnig, MD. and Hanno Waldhauser. declare:
`
`1. We are both permanent and full-time employees of CSL Behring.
`
`a.
`
`I. Thomas Machnig, am a trained physician for internal medicine
`
`and hold the position of Director Medical Afl'airs at CSL Behring
`
`since Sept. 2010.
`
`b. I. Hanno Waldhauser, am a trained commercial clerk and
`
`marketing / communication specialist and hold currently the
`
`position of Director Marketing at CSL Behring and was acting as
`
`Senior Global Product Manager in March 2012 at time of the 2012
`
`AAAAI Annual Meeting (March 2—6, 2012).
`
`2. We both attended the 2012 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma &
`
`Immunology (AAAAI) annual meeting that was held from March 2 to March 6 in
`
`Orlando, Florida. The meeting was attended by nearly 5,000 delegates from over
`
`60 countries and featured 960 abstracts, 370 educational sessions, and 144
`
`exhibitors.
`
`See meeting summary provided at http://enewsaaaai.org/april-
`
`2012/news-briefs/thousands-assemble-in-orlando-for-the-2012-annual-meeting.
`
`Attendees
`
`included an international audience of primarily physicians and
`
`specialists in the area of allergy and immunology. as well as academics and
`
`Page 2 of 6
`
`

`

`
`
`industry representatives of companies who operate in the same field, most of them
`
`having exhibitor booths during the conference.
`
`3.
`
`The attached Exhibit A is a true and accurate reproduction (scanned
`
`copy) of a hardcopy handout of a poster titled “Safety, Pharmacokinetics (PK), and
`
`Pharmacodynamics (PD) of Subcutaneous (SC) CINRYZE® (C1 Esterase Inhibitor
`
`[Human]) with Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase (rHuPH20) in Subjects with
`
`Hereditary Angioedema (HAE)” by J. Schranz et al. that was displayed during the
`
`2012 AAAAI annual meeting (“Schranz poster”). The METHODS section of the
`
`poster (enlarged as Exhibit B) includes “Figure 1. Study Design,” which provides
`
`a simple graphical representation of a “Prior 200 Study” and a “Current 204
`
`Study.” The Figure discloses that CINRYZE® was subcutaneously administered to
`
`participants in the “Prior 200 Study” at concentrations of 333.3U/mL (1,000U in 2
`
`separate injections of 1.5mL or 2,000U in 4 separate injections of 1.5mL).
`
`4.
`
`The Schranz poster was displayed as a late breaker abstract on
`
`Tuesday, March 6th, at 9:45AM ET) in the poster viewing area / hall close to the
`
`industry exhibition area of the conference and accessible to all registered delegates
`
`and exhibitors of the conference. As discussed in paragraph 2, there were
`
`approximately 5,000 people in attendance at the conference, all of whom were
`
`permitted to view the poster. In our recollection, the poster was presented by one
`
`of the authors on-site (as mandated by the conference) and discussed with relevant
`
`2
`
`
`Page 3 of 6
`
`

`

`
`
`physicians who are actively treating patients with Hereditary Angioedema as well
`
`as other industry representatives of other manufacturers of HAE therapies
`
`(including CSL Behring) while it was on display.
`
`5.
`
`Presenting authors as well as representatives of ViroPharma (at that
`
`time ViroPharma was sponsoring the research of the study which results were
`
`presented in the Schranz poster) were present on-site i.e. near the poster and
`
`provided answers to viewers. Handouts of the poster were freely available and
`
`picked-up by us as well as by other poster viewers.1 The abstract of the poster was
`
`published as L21 in the abstracts section of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical
`
`Immunology, Vol.129, Issue 2, AB369, Feb. 2012 (see attached Exhibit C). In
`
`addition, ViroPharma and Halozyme issued a press release through the PR
`
`Newswire service on March 6, 2012 titled “ViroPharma and Halozyme Announce
`
`Positive Data of Subcutaneous Cinryze® (C1 esterase inhibitor [human]) with
`
`Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase (rHuPH20)” (see attached Exhibit D)
`
`confirming the presentation of a poster by Jennifer Schranz entitled “Safety,
`
`Phrmacokinetics (PK), and Pharmacodynamics (PD) of Subctuaneous (SC)
`
`Cinryze® (C1 inhibitor (C1 INH) with Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase
`
`(rHuPH20) in Subjects with Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) at the 2012 annual
`
`1 While we do not know how many copies of the Schranz poster were taken by
`viewers during the meeting, we note that we have typically distributed between 50-
`100 copies of the posters we have presented at similar conferences.

`AAAAI meeting held March 2-6 in Orlando, Florida. Finally, a Biotechnology –
`
`Company Report of ViroPharma Incorporated by JMP Securities (attached as
`
`Exhibit E) mentions on the day thereafter that the presentation of the Schranz
`
`poster took place at the 2012 AAAAI Annual Meeting, and discloses a summary of
`
`the poster together with a Figure of the mean plasma C1-INH Functional
`
`Concentration (Figure 2 of the Schranz poster).
