Purpose of Amendment

This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 15, 2010 (together with the exhibits thereto and as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”) by ZymoGenetics, Inc., a Washington corporation (the “Company”), relating to the tender offer by Zeus Acquisition Corporation (“Merger Sub”), a Washington corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (“Parent”), to purchase all outstanding shares of voting common stock of the Company, without par value (the “Shares”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO initially filed by Parent and Merger Sub with the SEC on September 10, 2010 (together with the exhibits thereto and as amended and supplemented from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Schedule TO”). Unless otherwise indicated, all terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 14D-9.

Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by inserting the following sentence in place of the last sentence in the second paragraph of the section entitled “Regulatory Approvals”:

“The waiting period under the HSR Act applicable to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer expired at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on September 27, 2010, without any action having been taken by the FTC or the Antitrust Division. Accordingly, the condition to the Offer relating to the expiration or termination of the HSR Act waiting period has been satisfied.”
