Hoffmann-La Roche, Ltd and Hoffmann-La Roche, Inc. Intravenously administered Actemra is approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Additional information about the Phase 3 subcutaneous MabThera clinical trial can be found at clinicaltrials.gov and roche-trials.com.

     This information is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Report and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section and will not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement filed by Halozyme, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless specifically identified as being incorporated therein by reference.
