Operator

Welcome to the Emergent BioSolutions Incorporated second quarter 2009 financial results conference call. (Operator Instructions) I would now like to turn the call over to Mr. Robert Burrows.

Robert Burrows

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. My name is Robert Burrows, Vice President of Investor Relations for Emergent. Thank you for joining us today as we discuss Emergent BioSolutions financial results for the second quarter and first six months of 2009. As is customary, our call today is open to all participants. In addition, the call is being recorded and is copyrighted by Emergent BioSolutions.

ROCKVILLE, Md.-(Business Wire)-April 16, 2009 – Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (NYSE:EBS) announced today that late on April 15^th, HHS requested that each bidder in the competitive range for the rPA contract submit its product development plans to FDA for review in advance of an award. Emergent had already requested and is presently scheduling a meeting with the FDA as part of its pre-award activity. The Company intends to incorporate any FDA comments into its rPA development plan. Emergent will continue to move its rPA program forward to position the company to execute on the anticipated contract, once awarded.

“We strongly support this step by HHS, which potentially reduces development risk for our rPA vaccine candidate. We remain confident that we are well-positioned and competitive to receive any award granted by HHS for the development and procurement of the rPA vaccine. We look forward to continuing our long-standing relationship with the US Government as the proven and preeminent supplier of medical countermeasures to protect our nation,” said Fuad El-Hibri, chairman and chief executive officer of Emergent BioSolutions.

As with any government solicitation of this size and scope, there are no assurances that HHS will not impose additional requirements, which may further extend contract negotiations.

This action has no impact on the company’s existing contracts with HHS to supply BioThrax®, the only FDA licensed anthrax vaccine, for the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). This year Emergent is completing the delivery of 18.75 million doses of BioThrax for inclusion in the SNS. Also this year, following the completion of that delivery, Emergent will begin to supply HHS with an additional 14.5 million doses of BioThrax under a follow-on contract. The total value of these two procurement contracts with HHS for BioThrax exceeds $800 million.

ROCKVILLE, MD, October 19, 2007— Fuad El-Hibri, chairman and chief executive officer of  Emergent BioSolutions, issued the following statement on the passing of Admiral William Crowe, Jr., who served on the company’s Board of Directors from 1998-2005.

“I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of my dear friend and former colleague, the honorable Admiral William J. Crowe Jr. My thoughts are with his family during this difficult time,” said Fuad El-Hibri, chairman and chief executive officer of Emergent BioSolutions.

“A benevolent and courageous public servant, Admiral Crowe committed his life to serving the nation. He was a candid man who led with nobility and grace, and never wavered in his commitment to the protection of our country. His compassion and boundless love for his family and friends were matched only by his steadfast integrity and tenacious commitment to the United States military and the field of education.  Admiral Crowe’s countless contributions to the American people will not be forgotten, and our nation is fortunate to have known such a dignitary.  The Admiral was an invaluable asset to our company, and I will always remember the great strategic insight and disarming humor he brought to every situation. Emergent BioSolutions is a stronger company as a result of his vision and leadership, and I am particularly grateful for his many years of friendship,” he concluded.
