The statement on Schedule 13D filed by Amgen Inc. (“Amgen”) on June 5, 2003 (the “Initial Statement”) relating to the common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Tularik Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), as amended by an Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on July 1, 2003 and as amended by an Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on July 9, 2003 (the Initial Statement as previously amended, the “Current Statement”), is hereby amended by this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D.

 

Unless otherwise indicated herein, each capitalized term used but not defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Current Statement.

 

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Current Statement is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:

 

On November 6, 2003, Amgen submitted to the representatives of the underwriters in connection with a proposed public offering by the Issuer of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock pursuant to a prospectus supplement to the Issuer’s currently effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-67366) (the “Offering”) an oral, non-binding order to purchase up to the percentage of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock being offered in the Offering (including any over-allotment) that is equal to the percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by Amgen immediately prior to the Offering.

 

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 of the Current Statement is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:

 

On November 4, 2003, Amgen entered into a letter agreement (the “Lock-up Agreement”) with Goldman, Sachs & Co., SG Cowen Securities Corporation, UBS Securities LLC and Sun Trust Capital Markets, Inc., as representatives of the underwriters, in connection with the Offering. The Lock-up Agreement provides that, subject to limited exceptions, Amgen will not dispose of or hedge any of its shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, or publicly announce an intention to effect such a transaction, during the period from the date of the Lock-up Agreement through the date that is 90 days after the date of the final prospectus related to the Offering (the “Lock-up Period”), without the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co. Under the Lock-up Agreement, Amgen also waived its rights to require registration of its shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock in connection with the Offering and agreed, during the Lock-up Period, not to exercise its registration rights under the Amgen Registration Rights Agreement with respect to its shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock. Goldman, Sachs & Co., in its sole discretion, may release any of the securities subject to the Lock-up Agreement at any time. A copy of the Lock-up Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 7 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

On November 10, 2003, Amgen and the Issuer entered into an Agreement Related to Stock Purchase (the “Agreement Related to Stock Purchase”) pursuant to which the Issuer granted Amgen a waiver of the restrictions on stock purchase contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and Standstill, as amended, with respect to the potential acquisition of Common Stock by Amgen in the Offering. The Issuer also agreed to amend, and has amended, the Issuer Rights Agreement to provide that Amgen and its affiliates

will not become an Acquiring Person (as such term is defined in the Issuer Rights Agreement) as a result of the purchase of Common Stock by Amgen in the Offering. Amgen agreed not to acquire in the Offering more than the percentage of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock being offered in the Offering (including any over-allotment) that is equal to the percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by Amgen immediately prior to the Offering. A copy of the Agreement Related to Stock Purchase is attached hereto as Exhibit 8 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

On November 10, 2003, Amgen and the Issuer entered into an Amendment No. 1 to Registration Rights Agreement (the “Amendment No. 1”) pursuant to which the Issuer and Amgen agreed that any shares of Common Stock acquired by Amgen in the Offering will be considered “Registrable Securities” for purposes of the Amgen Registration Rights Agreement. A copy of the Amendment No. 1 is attached hereto as Exhibit 9 and is incorporated by reference herein.
