EXPLANATORY NOTE
 

 
Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to deregister certain shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), that were originally registered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 16, 2002, File No. 333-92424 (the “Registration Statement”).
 
In connection with the merger of AMS Acquisition Inc. (“AMS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with Immunex Corporation (the “Merger”), the Company registered 40,099,696 shares of its Common Stock (“Shares”) for issuance under several plans that the Company assumed or continued in connection with the Merger and listed on the Registration Statement (the “Plans”). Conversion ratios established in connection with the Merger were used to estimate the numbers of Shares that, as of the closing of the Merger, were subject to outstanding awards or rights that were assumed or were available for future issuance by the Company under the Plans. The Company subsequently determined that such estimates, as reflected in the Registration Statement, overstated the number of Shares registered as issuable under the Amgen Inc. Amended and Restated 1993 Equity Incentive Plan (the “1993 Plan”) and the Amgen Inc. Amended and Restated 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the “1999 Plan”) by 17,366 shares and 550 shares, respectively. Accordingly, this Post-Effective Amendment is being filed to deregister 17,916 Shares previously registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, consisting of 17,366 Shares registered for issuance under the 1993 Plan and 550 Shares registered for issuance under the 1999 Plan. This Post-Effective Amendment shall not affect the remaining Shares registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, and the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as to the 40,081,780 Shares issuable under the Plans shall continue unaffected by this Post-Effective Amendment.
 
This Post-Effective Amendment also is being filed to attach as exhibits copies of the 1993 Plan, the 1999 Plan and the Amgen Inc. Amended and Restated 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan that include updated provisions setting forth the numbers of Shares available for issuance under such plans. Such numbers, as reflected in the forms of such plans originally attached as exhibits to the Registration Statement, reflected estimates prepared for purposes of filing the Registration Statement.
 
The Registration Statement remains in effect in all other respects.
