(1) This amount includes shares of common stock acquired in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 16, 2005, among Animas Corporation, Johnson & Johnson and Emerald Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson (the "Merger Agreement"), whereby under the terms thereof, each participant's outstanding right to purchase shares of common stock under Animas Corporation's Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") was terminated, and all amounts allocated for each participant's account (including executive officers) under the ESPP as of December 31, 2005 were used to purchase shares of common stock at the applicable price determined pursuant to the ESPP, using December 31, 2005 as the final purchase date for the then outstanding offering period.
(2) Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each issued and outstanding share of common stock was automatically canceled and was converted into the right to receive a per share amount equal to $24.50 in cash, without interest.
(3) This option, which provided for vesting in three installments with 30% vesting on March 31, 2006, 35% vesting on March 31, 2007 and 35% vesting on March 31, 2008, was canceled pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the $24.50 per share merger consideration over the per share exercise price of the option, multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to the option.
