PART I



|Item 1. | Business
|------- | --------

OVERVIEW

SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat
life-threatening diseases. We are positioned to grow our two assets, a biotechnology business focused on developing late-stage products for cancer and viral infectious diseases for the United States and Europe, and SciClone China, our pharmaceutical
business which generates important cash flow to fund its growth and significantly contributes to the funding of our biotechnology business. Our strategy is to in-license late-stage clinical products and develop them for commercialization in the
United States, Europe, and the Peoples Republic of China, one of the worlds fastest growing pharmaceutical markets.

Our lead product ZADAXIN®, our brand
of thymalfasin, is approved in select international markets and is one of the largest selling imported drugs in China today, measured in revenue. For the U.S. and European markets, we are evaluating thymalfasin in a nearly completed phase 3 clinical
trial for the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and are planning the regulatory strategy and design of a phase 3 clinical trial for malignant melanoma. Our other drug development candidates are SCV-07, currently being evaluated in a proof-of-concept phase 2
HCV clinical trial, and RP101, currently being evaluated in an ongoing phase 2 pancreatic cancer clinical trial.

As part of our global
product development efforts, we are evaluating thymalfasin in a nearly completed phase 3 clinical trial targeting HCV, which we believe could become a significant component of the multi-billion dollar hepatitis C therapeutic market in the U.S. and
Europe. This phase 3 clinical trial is being conducted in Europe by our European partner Sigma-Tau and was designed as a multi-center, double blinded, randomized, controlled trial. In this trial, we are evaluating thymalfasin as an additive therapy
to pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin to treat HCV patients who have failed current therapy, also known as non-responder patients. In February 2008, we reported promising interim blinded results indicating thymalfasin may increase sustained
viral response (SVR) rates for non-responder patients and we expect to report final unblinded data in the third quarter of 2008 which may or may not confirm the interim results.

In addition to the HCV opportunity, we are evaluating thymalfasin as a therapy for malignant melanoma, which we estimate is a $200 million market
opportunity for thymalfasin worldwide. In June 2007, we reported positive results from a 488-patient phase 2 clinical trial demonstrating thymalfasin in combination with dacarbazine, the standard of care, met its primary endpoint in tumor response
and showed promise in extending survival for patients diagnosed with stage IV malignant melanoma. Together with Sigma-Tau, we are planning the design of a phase 3 melanoma trial and a regulatory strategy, including a Special Protocol Assessment
(SPA)

to be filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We plan to determine the development plans for thymalfasin in HCV and malignant melanoma after
reporting final HCV data in the third quarter of 2008 and may seek a partner agreement as part of such plan.

In addition to thymalfasin,
we are developing RP101 and SCV-07 for the treatment of life-threatening diseases. We are conducting a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled phase 2 clinical trial using RP101 in combination with gemcitabine chemotherapy in
153 patients with late-stage pancreatic cancer. We expect to complete enrollment of this trial in the first half of 2009 and report data in the first half of 2010. SCV-07, our third development-stage compound, is being evaluated in a
proof-of-concept phase 2 clinical trial to investigate the potential antiviral effects of our proprietary compound SCV-07 specifically in HCV patients. We expect to report data from this trial in the first half of 2008.

In addition to our development efforts in the United States and Europe, we are expanding SciClone
China with the goal of becoming a significant pharmaceutical company in this rapidly growing market. A key part of our strategy is to leverage our decade of experience in this market by growing SciClone China from a sales and marketing organization
into a more fully-integrated pharmaceutical company. After acquiring the Chinese marketing rights to DC BeadTMfor liver cancer, we are pursuing
regulatory approval and intend to launch this product in the second half of 2008. To continue to grow the sales and cash flow from SciClone China, we intend to broaden our product portfolio further by in-licensing or acquiring the marketing rights
to other synergistic products. We believe we are well-positioned to in-license additional therapeutics for both China and the significantly larger U.S. and European markets, in part because of our opportunity to develop and commercialize these
products in China. Also, we intend to use our clinical work in China to support and accelerate regulatory applications in the United States and Europe. SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was organized in 1990 as a California corporation and
reincorporated in Delaware in 2003. Our corporate headquarters are located in Foster City, California. For information about our revenues from external customers, measures of our profit and loss, our total assets and other financial matters, you
should read our Consolidated Financial Statements provided in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

STRATEGY

SciClones objective is to develop and commercialize select products for the large United States and European pharmaceutical markets and build a
significant pharmaceutical business in the growing Chinese pharmaceutical market. Our late-stage clinical trials in the United States and Europe are focused on the development of thymalfasin for HCV and malignant melanoma, SCV-07 for viral
infectious diseases, and RP101 for pancreatic cancer. Our objective is to achieve many significant milestones in 2008, including reporting phase 2 HCV data for SCV-07 in the first half of 2008, reporting phase 3 HCV data for thymalfasin in the third
quarter of 2008, significantly advancing the enrollment of patients in the phase 2 pancreatic cancer trial for RP101, pursuing a Clinical Trial Agreement (CTA) to conduct clinical development of SCV-07 in China, and launching DC Bead in China during
the second half of 2008. Our strategy may include partnership agreements if favorable terms can be achieved.

Over the last decade,
SciClone China has established a successful sales and marketing organization and extensive importation and distribution channels, which have resulted in strong growth in sales and substantial cash flow. Through our sales force of more than 140
Chinese medical representatives, we believe we have developed a good reputation and relationships with physicians and administrators in over 500 hospitals in the major cities in China. We are expanding into the second and third tier cities to
continue our growth. As a result of these efforts, ZADAXIN is one of the top-selling imported pharmaceutical products in China, measured in revenue, and we have a strong commercial presence in liver disease, cancer and the intensive care setting. We
continue to expand our clinical development and regulatory capabilities in China to develop and commercialize additional products, such as DC Bead and SCV-07, by working with locally established contract research organizations (CROs) to conduct good
clinical practice (GCP) and International Conference on Harmonization (ICH)-standard clinical trials and file regulatory documents with the Chinese State Food and Drug Administration (the SFDA).

A key factor in the successful execution of our strategy is the in-licensing of promising and attractive
development-stage product candidates. One source of these potential products may be small- to mid-sized research-focused biotechnology companies based in the United States and Europe seeking to advance the development of their products rapidly and
cost-effectively primarily for their home markets. We believe that one of our main competitive advantages in securing such licenses, for the U.S. or European markets in addition to the China market, is our ability to develop and commercialize novel
biopharmaceutical products in China.

DEVELOPING PRODUCTS FOR THE U.S. AND EUROPEAN MARKETS

SciClones Lead Product ZADAXIN (Thymalfasin)

ZADAXIN, scientifically referred to as thymalfasin or thymosin alpha 1, is SciClones synthetic preparation of thymalfasin, a thymic peptide which circulates in the blood naturally, and is instrumental in the immune response to certain
cancers and viral infections. Published scientific and clinical studies have shown that thymalfasin helps stimulate and direct the bodys immune response to eradicate infectious diseases like HCV and HBV, as well as certain cancers. Thymalfasin
appears to be well tolerated with few reports of significant side effects or toxicities associated with its use.

Thymalfasin elicits a
variety of immune system responses against viruses. One such response is an increase in production of certain subsets of white blood cells and their differentiation into CD-4 helper cells, specifically towards differentiation into the Th1 subset of
CD-4 helper cells (Th1 cells secrete cytokines such as interleukin-2 (IL-2) and gamma interferon that can help the immune response). Moreover, as thymalfasin increases differentiation into Th1 cells, it also results in decreased CD-4 cell
differentiation into the Th2 subset of CD-4 helper cells that produce cytokines, such as IL-4, which are associated with persistence of viral infection. In addition, thymalfasin stimulates several other components of the immune response that help
the body attack and kill virally-infected cells.

Thymalfasin Triple Therapy for HCV

In the third quarter of 2008, SciClone and our European partner Sigma-Tau expect to report final data from a nearly completed phase 3 clinical trial
evaluating thymalfasin as part of a triple therapy in treating HCV non-responder patients. We believe thymalfasin could become a significant component of the multi-billion dollar hepatitis C therapeutic market in the U.S. and Europe. The phase 3
triple therapy clinical trial was designed with a well-accepted protocol as a multi-center, double blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. In February 2008, we reported promising interim blinded results indicating thymalfasin may increase
sustained viral response (SVR) rates for HCV non-responder patients.

Triple therapy, the addition of another agent to the combination of
pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin, is now an accepted approach in the effort to develop a new therapeutic regimen that may provide HCV patients with a potentially better chance to reach an SVR. We were a pioneer in developing the triple
therapy approach, and today several drug developers are combining their drug in a triple therapy regimen for HCV clinical trials, typically after discovering that their drug alone or in combination with only pegylated interferon alpha did not
provide satisfactory results in comparison to the standard therapy of pegylated interferon and ribavirin. In 2005 and 2006, SciClone completed two phase 3 clinical trials using thymalfasin in combination with pegylated interferon without ribavirin.
Although those trials did not show statistical significance in the thymalfasin treatment arm, a positive thymalfasin-related trend was observed in SVR.

SciClone has patent protection through 2021 in the United States and Europe for the HCV treatment approach using the triple therapy of thymalfasin, pegylated interferon, and ribavirin. Sigma-Tau retains the European
rights to thymalfasin while we have retained rights in all other regions of the world, including the United States.

Phase 3 Interim Blinded ETR (48 Weeks)

The interim blinded HCV data from the phase 3 triple therapy trial show that at the end of 48 weeks of therapy, 171 out of 553 total patients achieved an
end-of-treatment response (ETR). As blinded results, the 171 patients achieving an ETR include both treatment and control group patients. A response to treatment is defined as having no detectable HCV RNA circulating in the blood at the end of 48
weeks of therapy.

Phase 3 Interim Blinded SVR (72 Weeks)

Of the 171 patients who responded after 48 weeks of therapy, 150 have completed the 24-week follow up period (72 week observation) and 54 have achieved an
SVR. Of the remaining 21 patients who responded at the end of therapy, 12 were HCV negative at week 60 (12-week follow up observation period) and 2 had yet to reach the week 60 follow-up point. All patients will complete the observation period by
the end of the second quarter 2008.

While these data include both treatment and control group patients, SciClone and Sigma-Tau believe the
trend is promising in light of other recent clinical trial results in non-responder HCV patients retreated with only pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin which demonstrated SVR rates of 3 to 8% at the 72 week observation point. Details of the
phase 3 triple therapy study design and preliminary blinded safety data were reported by Professor Rizzetto at the Thymosins in Health and Disease First International Symposium in Washington D.C. and also were published in September 2007
in a special edition of the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences.

If the final results of this nearly completed phase 3 trial are
positive, SciClone and Sigma-Tau plan to meet with the regulatory authorities in the United States and Europe to determine the most expeditious process to bring this therapy to the market.

Phase 3 Triple Therapy Trial Protocol

The nearly completed phase 3, multi-center, double-blinded, randomized study enrolled 553 predominately genotype 1 HCV patients who have not responded to previous treatment with pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin. Patients were
randomized, in a one-to-one ratio, to receive either thymalfasin or a placebo, and all patients received pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin. After completing 48 weeks of treatment, patients are monitored twice during a 24-week observation
period at week 60 and week 72.

The primary endpoint of the trial is SVR, defined as the absence of HCV RNA measured at week 72, which is
the end of the 24-week observation period. The secondary endpoints are normalization of ALT (an enzyme that when present in increased levels is an indicator of inflammation or damage of the liver) measured at the end of weeks 48 and 72, absence of
HCV RNA measured at week 48, and an improvement in liver biopsy.

Triple Therapy Pilot Study Results

The design of this nearly completed phase 3 triple therapy clinical trial is derived from the positive results from a 2005 pilot study conducted by a team
led by Jorge L. Poo, M.D., Chief Scientific Officer of CIF-Biotech at the Medica Sur hospital in Mexico City. This study evaluated the use of thymalfasin in combination with pegylated interferon alpha 2a and ribavirin to treat 40 patients who had
not responded to prior therapy with the non-pegylated form of interferon and ribavirin. Measured on an intent-to-treat basis, this small study demonstrated a 22% SVR for genotype 1 non-responder patients. By comparison, results from a separate,
unrelated clinical trial showed a 5% SVR for genotype 1 non-responder patients re-treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin.

About HCV

HCV is a blood-borne viral disease which causes inflammation of the liver. The World Health Organization
estimates that 170 million people worldwide are infected with HCV, and the Centers for Disease Control estimates



6



---

##### Table of Contents

that approximately 8 to 10 million people are infected with HCV throughout the U.S. and Europe. Of these patients, more than 5 million are
chronically infected, and the persistent liver inflammation in chronically infected patients can develop serious complications including cirrhosis of the liver, liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma or liver cancer. Each year, approximately
160,000 patients in the United States and Europe are treated for HCV, with only half of those patients achieving an SVR. We estimate that by 2013 nearly 800,000 HCV patients in the United States and Europe will have failed current therapy since it
was approved in 2003, making a major market opportunity for thymalfasin as a component of triple therapy for non-responders alone.

Thymalfasin for
Advanced-Stage Malignant Melanoma

In June 2007, we reported results from a 488-patient phase 2 clinical trial showing thymalfasin
achieved its primary endpoint of tumor response and shows promise in extending survival for patients diagnosed with stage IV malignant melanoma, the most advanced form of skin cancer. Results showed that thymalfasin in combination with dacarbazine
(DTIC) chemotherapy tripled the overall response rate and extended overall survival by nearly 3 months compared to patients treated with DTIC, the current standard of care, and interferon alpha. This phase 2 clinical trial was conducted by Sigma-Tau
in Europe and the final data were reported at the 2007 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO).

SciClone and
Sigma-Tau are planning the design of a phase 3 melanoma trial and a regulatory strategy, which could include a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) to be filed with the U.S. FDA. As thymalfasins phase 3 clinical development for HCV and melanoma
have potentially significantly different timelines, costs, market potentials, competitive products and other factors, we plan to review the final results from the phase 3 HCV clinical trial in the third quarter of 2008 before determining the optimal
development program for thymalfasin for the HCV and malignant melanoma indications. To optimize our financial resources, our strategy may include partnership agreements if favorable terms can be achieved.

Thymalfasin has been granted Orphan Drug Designation by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of stage IIb through stage IV malignant melanoma. Sigma-Tau has
the European rights to thymalfasin while we have retained rights elsewhere in the world, including the United States. The Orphan Drug designation will allow us a seven-year period of market exclusivity if and when thymalfasin is approved for this
indication in the United States. This designation is intended to provide incentives to drug and biologics suppliers to develop and supply drugs for the treatment of rare diseases, currently defined as diseases that affect fewer than 200,000
individuals.

The completed phase 2 multi-center, randomized, open-label clinical trial enrolled 488 patients with stage IV metastatic
melanoma at 64 European clinical sites. The trial was designed to evaluate different dose levels of thymalfasin in combination with DTIC chemotherapy, with and without low-dose interferon alpha, as a first-line treatment for malignant melanoma. Most
patients enrolled in the trial had liver and other metastases and the remaining patients had lung metastases and skin or lymph node metastases. Thymalfasin at all dose levels was well-tolerated in all treated patients, with no serious adverse events
attributed to the drug.

Phase 2 clinical trial results demonstrated that thymalfasin achieved its primary endpoint in overall tumor
response. In this phase 2 clinical trial, all patients in the treatment arms containing thymalfasin showed a greater overall tumor response, including complete response (CR) and partial response (PR), than those in the control arm. Patients treated
with the 3.2 mg dose of thymalfasin in combination with DTIC without interferon alpha showed an overall tumor response of 12.1%, compared to 4.1% for patients in the control group treated with DTIC and interferon alpha.

When measured for overall survival, all patients in the treatment arms containing thymalfasin reached a longer median survival than those in the control
arm. Patients treated with the 3.2 mg dose of thymalfasin in combination with DTIC without interferon alpha reached a median survival of 9.3 months, compared to 6.6 months for patients in the control group treated with DTIC and interferon alpha.
Median progression free survival was 1.87 months for the group of patients treated with the 3.2 mg dose of thymalfasin in combination

with DTIC without interferon alpha, compared to 1.81 months for the control group treated with DTIC and interferon alpha. Even though the median progression
free survival times were similar, the Hazard Ratio (HR) comparing 3.2 mg of thymalfasin together with DTIC versus patients treated with DTIC and interferon alpha was 0.74, which translate into a 26% reduction of the risk of disease progression for
patients treated with 3.2 mg of thymalfasin.

In a subset analysis excluding patients with elevated levels of the enzyme lactate
dehydrogenase (LDH), a factor associated with poor prognosis, the group of patients with normal LDH levels treated with the 3.2 mg dose of thymalfasin in combination with DTIC without interferon reached a median survival of 14.4 months, compared to
10.8 months for the control group treated with DTIC and interferon alpha. Median progression free survival was 3.65 months for the group of normal LDH patients treated with the 3.2 mg dose of thymalfasin in combination with DTIC without interferon
alpha, compared to 2.17 months for the control group treated with DTIC and interferon alpha (HR=0.62).

How Thymalfasin Works in
Melanoma

Suppression of the growth of immune-sensitive tumors such as melanoma has been shown to be dependent on a strong immune
response, including a large number of activated effectors such as tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte cells (TILs), and specific anti-melanoma cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). It is also important to increase the presentation of cancer-specific antigens to
the immune system through sustained expression of these molecules along with MHC Class I, as cancers can avoid detection by the immune system via suppression of the expression and presentation of these specific antigens.

Thymalfasins potential beneficial role in treatment of melanoma derives from its demonstrated broad activation of these various arms of the immune
system, including increases in TILs, CTLs, and expression of MHC Class I and tumor-specific antigens. Thymalfasins multiple activities arise through activation of Toll-like receptor 9 and signaling through increases in the nuclear factor NfKB
through Myd88 and IKKb. Evaluation of thymalfasins utility in melanoma animal models has confirmed effective anti-tumor activity.

About Malignant Melanoma

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. In 2008, the American
Cancer Society estimated that approximately 8,420 deaths would occur from melanoma and another 62,480 cases of melanoma were expected to be diagnosed in the United States. Melanoma is classified as stage IV, the most advanced form, once the cancer
has spread beyond the skin to a distant site. DTIC and interleukin-2 (IL-2) are the only FDA-approved therapies for the treatment of malignant melanoma. However, these other therapeutic agents including alpha interferon, used alone or in
combination, are ineffective at extending overall patient survival, which at this stage is typically only about six to nine months. Response to treatment largely depends upon the stage of melanoma, disease site and the extent to which the cancer has
spread.

RP101 for Cancer

In
January 2008, SciClone dosed its first patient in a phase 2 clinical trial using RP101 as an additive therapy to gemcitabine, the current standard of care, for the treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer. We expect to complete the enrollment of
the planned 153 patients in this phase 2 clinical trial in the first half of 2009 and report data in the first half of 2010.

We estimate
the potential U.S. market opportunity is $500 million for RP101, a nucleoside analog which may act to enhance the beneficial effect of chemotherapy. In April 2007, we acquired the exclusive rights in the United States and Canada to develop and
commercialize RP101 for the treatment of cancer from Resistys, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Avantogen Oncology, Inc. Under the terms of the agreements with Resistys, Inc. and RESprotect GmbH, we paid approximately $1,700,000 in upfront fees,
and in the first quarter of 2008 a

##### Table of Contents

$1,320,000 milestone payment upon dosage of the first patient in the phase 2 clinical trial. In addition, we may be obligated to pay post phase 3
success-based regulatory and commercial milestone payments of up to $22,000,000 as well as royalties on future sales. We believe this agreement provides an attractive opportunity to develop RP101 for a new indication with significant market
potential for small near-term payments and future success-based payments upon developing and commercializing this compound.

RP101 has been
granted Orphan Drug Designation for the adjunct treatment of pancreatic cancer by the U.S. FDA. The drug is approved in several European countries for antiviral indications. We believe that the compounds potential efficacy to combat
chemoresistance and improve chemosensitivity constitutes a new clinical use for RP101, which is protected by use patents, the exclusive rights to which we have for the United States and Canada.

Phase 2 Pancreatic Cancer Trial Protocol

This ongoing phase 2 clinical trial is randomized, placebo-controlled, and double-blind and is planned to be conducted at 55 sites throughout the United States, Europe and South America. We plan to enroll a total of
153 late-stage pancreatic cancer patients, randomized with two patients assigned to the treatment arm for each patient assigned to the control arm. Patients will receive either gemcitabine plus RP101 or gemcitabine alone for three weeks, followed by
one week of rest, for each of six cycles. The primary endpoint is overall survival, with a secondary endpoint of progression-free survival.

Phase 1 Study Data

In a previous phase 1 clinical study in 22 late-stage pancreatic cancer patients, patients
receiving RP101 in combination with gemcitabine had a median survival of 9.3 months, compared to a historical control of approximately 6 months for patients treated with gemcitabine alone. In addition, six and 12-month survival rates for treated
patients were 68% and 39%, respectively, compared to historical controls of 47% and 13% for patients treated with gemcitabine alone.

In a
separate phase 1 study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, patients treated with RP101, gemcitabine and cisplatin had a median survival of 447 days, compared to the historical control of 186 days for patients treated with gemcitabine and
cisplatin alone. Median time to progression for the treated patients group was 280 days compared to 104 days for the historical control group.

In both studies, the most common adverse events were nausea, fatigue, vomiting, neutropenia, anorexia, and fever, toxicities consistent with those expected for gemcitabine alone. Although it is difficult to draw conclusions from two
separate, unrelated trials, we believe the results from these clinical trials are encouraging.

About RP101

RP101, also known as BVdU, is a nucleoside analog which has shown the potential to prevent the induction of resistance to chemotherapy, suppressing genes
involved in development of that resistance, and enhancing sensitivity to chemotherapy. Additionally, RP101 has been shown to induce cell death, or apoptosis, in cancer cells. In several preclinical and clinical studies, RP101 has shown biological
activity in various cancer indications and has shown the potential to extend survival for pancreatic cancer patients.

About
Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most deadly forms of cancer. The American Cancer Society estimated in 2008 that
approximately 37,680 cases and 34,290 deaths would result from pancreatic cancer in the United States, making it the fourth leading cause of overall cancer death. This disease is difficult to diagnose in its early stages, and most patients have
incurable disease by the time they are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The

overall median survival of patients with pancreatic cancer is only four to six months. Patients with advanced stages of pancreatic cancer are typically
treated with chemotherapeutic agents such as gemcitabine, alone or in combination with other addictive therapeutics, with minimal increases in overall survival.

SCV-07 for Viral Infectious Diseases

In the first half of 2008, we expect to report data from a proof-of-concept
phase 2 clinical trial in the United States using SCV-07 as a sole agent to treat patients infected with HCV. The trial is designed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of SCV-07 on patients with HCV. Should these results be positive, SCV-07 could be
developed as a safe and potentially orally bioavailable HCV therapeutic which could replace or lower the dose of pegylated interferon alpha therapy.

SCV-07 has strong intellectual property protection through composition of matter patent claims and is approved already in Russia for tuberculosis. We acquired exclusive worldwide rights outside of Russia
from Verta, Ltd.

Phase 2 HCV Trial Protocol

The randomized, placebo-controlled trial is designed to enroll 30 patients infected with the genotype 1 strain of the HCV virus who previously responded to treatment with interferon alpha and ribavirin, but
subsequently relapsed. Patients are being randomized into three cohorts of escalating doses and receiving daily subcutaneous injections of SCV-07 or placebo. After completing seven days of therapy all patients are being monitored for 14 days. The
primary endpoint of the trial will be a single-log reduction in the hepatitis C viral load.

Preclinical Data

In June 2007, we reported data from an animal model study demonstrating that SCV-07 inhibits melanoma tumor growth, a cancer known to be sensitive to
immune modulation. Additional preclinical studies in mucositis, lung cancer and malignant melanoma have demonstrated positive results.



About SCV-07

Our proprietary
drug candidate SCV-07 (gamma-D-glutamyl-L-tryptophan) is a synthetic peptide with proven immune stimulating effects. SCV-07 has shown efficacy in treating bacterial infections. SCV-07 specifically stimulates the immune systems through its effects on
T-helper 1 cells, which are essential for clearance of viral infections. SCV-07 has shown safety at varied single and multi-dose levels and is orally bioavailable.

BUILDING A LEADING PHARMACEUTICAL BUSINESS IN CHINA

The Chinese Pharmaceutical Market

The demand for pharmaceutical products in China is fueled by strong economic development, a growing urban middle class, and an aging population with
related rising incidences of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. By 2010, approximately 170 million people in China are projected to be over 65 with increasing healthcare needs. Another significant change affecting medical
care in China has been the deregulation of the healthcare system. This has resulted in a shift of responsibility for healthcare decisions from the government and the hospital to the physician and the patient, and has allowed patients greater access
to healthcare services and novel therapeutic products. The increasing ability of patients to afford private pay healthcare options, such as treatments and services not reimbursable under available insurance plans, also has broadened the market for
new therapies.

##### Table of Contents

As China seeks to be a global competitor in the pharmaceutical market, the Chinese government is
increasing product requirements for marketing approval and adopting additional manufacturing and clinical trial standards similar to those in the United States and in Europe. While low cost access to important resources, such as clinical trial
development and manufacturing, is available to current and potential participants in the Chinese pharmaceutical market, ultimate success is dependent upon sales and marketing efforts and distribution capabilities.

Sales to hospitals account for approximately 80% to 85% of total pharmaceutical sales revenue in China. For sales of novel biopharmaceutical products, we
believe that share is even higher. For any pharmaceutical product to be successful, physicians must be familiar with its use, the national medical community must hold it in high regard, and the provider and manufacturer must have a good reputation
within the medical community. The detailing of products to physicians and hospital administrators by company medical representatives and sales staff, supported by product focused medical education seminars, are critical for product launches and
essential to gain and maintain market share. The acceptance rate of newly introduced pharmaceutical products is lower and longer than is typically observed in the U.S. or European markets. It is estimated that only about 12 pharmaceutical products
had sales in China in excess of $50 million in 2007.

Trusted relationships with effective distributors are also necessary for product
success. Only registered Chinese distributors, by law, can arrange for the sale of pharmaceutical products to hospitals. The distributors fulfill other key functions such as the storage and delivery of the product and receivable collection.
Distribution networks in China are tiered, which especially complicates sales outside of the major metropolitan regions. The pharmaceutical distribution business is highly regulated, and companies without established networks or relationships with
major distributors face significant marketing challenges.

SciClone Chinas Established Business

In China, we have an established business with growing product revenue and positive cash flow. We have a strong commitment to build on this base and
introduce new pharmaceutical products to meet the countrys evolving healthcare needs. After launching ZADAXIN in China in 1996, by 2007 our worldwide sales of this product reached more than $37 million, 92% of which was sales to China. Today,
ZADAXIN is one of the top selling imported pharmaceutical products in China, measured by revenue.

Over the past decade, SciClone China has
established a strong commercial presence in liver disease, cancer and the intensive care setting. We employ a team of over 140 Chinese medical representatives who are well-trained regarding ZADAXINs attributes and understand the changing
healthcare environment, the physicians role and the patients needs in this unique culture. These representatives focus their efforts on building strong relationships with physicians, pharmacists and administrators in over 500 hospitals
in the major cities in China. As we continue to grow our sales in China, we have begun to expand into second and third tier cities within this country. We are an active participant in, and sponsor of, regional and international medical conferences
related to liver disease. Although ZADAXIN is not covered by patents in China, we endeavor to position ZADAXIN as a high-quality, imported, premium-priced product rather than compete with generics based on price.

To distribute ZADAXIN in China, physician and hospital pharmacy orders for ZADAXIN are fulfilled largely through four licensed distributors. These large
and well-established distributors were selected based on their capabilities, integrity, and strength in their regional marketplace. The first distributor covers the North, centered on Beijing; the second covers the East coast, centered on Shanghai;
and the third covers the South, centered on Guang Dong. The fourth is the principal nationwide distributor to the military and most government service hospitals. Our distributors purchase their ZADAXIN supplies from our selected well-established,
government-licensed importing agents. Sales terms to the importing agents in China are on a no-return basis, except under limited terms regarding product quality, and typically are for payment in six months to accommodate the importing agents
costs of importation including duties and quality assurance testing fees and the long collection cycle associated with sales within the country.

##### Table of Contents

China accounted for approximately 92%, 92%, and 91%, respectively, of our product sales for the years
ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. ZADAXIN is approved in China for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and for use as a vaccine adjuvant. However, physicians have been using ZADAXIN increasingly in oncology and for intensive care
patients.

In 2007, Shanghai Lingyun and China National Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation accounted for 63% and 21% of our product
sales, respectively, and one other importer accounted for 8%. In 2006, Shanghai Lingyun and China National Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation accounted for 66% and 15% of our product sales, respectively, and two other importers accounted for a
combined 11%. In 2005, Guang Dong South Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Co., Ltd, Zhuhai Golden Medicine Co., Ltd and China National Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation accounted for 57%, 19%, and 15% of our product sales, respectively. No other
customers accounted for more than 10% of product sales in those periods. As of December 31, 2007, approximately $11,941,000 or 94% of our accounts receivable were attributable to two customers in China.

Broadening SciClone Chinas Product Portfolio

To build on SciClone Chinas successful sales and marketing business, we are actively seeking to in-license additional candidates for our product portfolio and drug candidate pipeline. We continue to expand our clinical, regulatory and
in-licensing capabilities in the areas of clinical development experience, established relationships with CROs, deep understanding of the regulatory process, and in-licensing expertise targeting the unique needs of the patient population in China.

We believe that our capabilities in China are an advantage in our efforts to secure the marketing rights to development-stage products for
either the U.S. or European markets in addition to the China market. Few biotechnology companies in the United States or Europe have efficient access to develop or commercialize their products for the China market. Our strategy is to provide a
significant value proposition to U.S. and European biotechnology companies as their collaborative partner for the development and commercialization of their products by offering the following advantages:



| |  |  | Time savings in obtaining regulatory approval for and launch of product into the major pharmaceutical markets and China. Our business in China offers access to
large patient populations, providing for rapid enrollment of clinical trials, creating a potential advantage of a first to market for new therapeutics in the rapidly growing Chinese pharmaceutical market.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cost savings in developing a product for the U.S. or European markets as clinical trials in China are cost-effective.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | SciClone would provide license fees, milestone payments and royalty stream to their collaborative partners for the rights to develop and commercialize their
products.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Attractive opportunity for a biotechnology company to retain the product rights for its home market or until the product reaches a more advanced, and potentially
more valuable, stage of development.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | GCP- and ICH-standard clinical trials conducted to meet the regulatory requirements of the SFDA and potentially to serve as one of the pivotal trials for FDA and
EMEA filings.

| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the first of such in-license opportunities, in June 2006 we acquired the exclusive Chinese marketing rights to DC Bead and submitted a regulatory
application to the SFDA in December 2006. DC Bead is currently approved in Europe and we are targeting approval in China for DC Bead as a treatment for liver cancer. China accounts for one-half of the worlds liver cancer cases and in China
more than 300,000 people die annually from this disease, making this an important unmet medical need.

##### Table of Contents

Currently, we are evaluating opportunities to acquire or in-license the marketing rights to other
proprietary products in China that can be effectively and efficiently marketed to physicians by our team of medical representatives. To maintain maximum efficiency in our existing operations, we plan to continue to focus on product opportunities in
the areas of oncology, infectious disease and intensive care medicine.

DC Bead for Liver Cancer

After acquiring the exclusive Chinese marketing rights to DC Bead, we filed a regulatory application with the SFDA and expect to launch this product for
the treatment of liver cancer in the second half of 2008.

We acquired the rights to DC Bead, an embolizing and chemotherapy releasing
device, from Biocompatibles International plc. (Biocompatibles) in June 2006. The DC Bead is approved in Europe for use in the treatment of malignant hypervascularized tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), or primary liver cancer. In
December 2006, we submitted a regulatory application to the SFDA for approval to market the DC Bead for the treatment of liver cancer.

About DC Bead

The DC Bead is comprised of microscopic beads, which when administered by catheter into a blood
vessel, block the supply of nutrients and blood to a tumor. While the blockage of the blood vessel itself can have an anti-tumor effect, chemotherapeutic agents can be added to the beads for a more targeted anti-tumor effect. This controlled
delivery of an anti-tumor drug concentrates the toxic effect of the drug directly on the tumor and minimizes side effects throughout the rest of the body. The DC Bead is designed to deliver doxorubicin and potentially can deliver other chemotherapy
drugs as well, such improvements which are available to us in our marketing agreement with Biocompatibles.

About Liver Cancer

HCC is the fifth most common form of cancer worldwide, but represents the third most common cause of death from cancer. Over half
of all worldwide cases of liver cancer occur in China with nearly 350,000 new cases and over 300,000 deaths each year, according to the GloboCan 2002 database published by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. The pervasiveness of liver
cancer in China is principally due to the high prevalence of the HBV in that part of the world. Left untreated, HBV, like HCV, often leads to cirrhosis of the liver and liver cancer. Liver cancer that cannot be removed through surgery is frequently
treated by transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). While TACE has shown efficacy in treating unresectable HCC, one of its drawbacks is the risk of systemic leakage of the chemotherapeutic drug throughout the body. The systemic exposure to the
chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin in particular is known to cause toxicity to the heart, including the risk of fatal congestive heart failure. DC Bead is designed to reduce this risk by delivering drugs directly to the tumor site.

International Sales and Marketing

In addition
to China, ZADAXIN is approved in over 34 countries, primarily in Asia, the Middle East and Latin America where our licensed distributors are largely responsible for the marketing and sales of the product. ZADAXINs approvals are principally for
the treatment of HBV, with additional approvals in certain countries for the treatment of HCV, as a vaccine adjuvant, or as a chemotherapy adjuvant for cancer patients with weakened immune systems. We sell ZADAXIN in various international markets
through our wholly owned subsidiary, SciClone Pharmaceuticals International Ltd. (SPIL).

SPIL is registered in the Cayman Islands and has
its principal office in Hong Kong. SPIL orders ZADAXIN from our European manufacturer and contracts with a third party for the storage of our finished goods inventory at warehousing facilities in Hong Kong. SPIL then distributes our product
worldwide from these warehousing

facilities based on purchase orders from our customers. Under our established distribution arrangements, local importers and distributors are responsible for
the importation, inventory, distribution and invoicing of ZADAXIN.

Product sales were $37,038,000, $32,433,000, and $27,842,000 for the
years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and all were derived from sales of ZADAXIN.

the above named indications. We have not been issued a patent with respect to the use of thymalfasin as a therapy for melanoma. However, thymalfasin marketing exclusivity for this indication is available to us under orphan drug designation in the
United States.

We are either a patentee or exclusive licensee of use and process patents related to the method of making and the
therapeutic uses of thymalfasin. Our process patents are directed to methods of making thymalfasin and have been issued in the United States, a majority of European countries, Japan, Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea. Although the
composition of matter patents related to thymalfasin have expired in the major pharmaceutical markets, we have several composition of matter patents and applications directed to analogues and derivatives of thymalfasin which have been granted in the
United States and in important international markets. Our commercialized product, and the product we are using in our clinical trials, is thymalfasin and not an analogue or derivative. However, we continue to seek additional proprietary rights
relating to the use of thymalfasin.

We are the exclusive licensee of issued U.S. patents covering certain methods of use of RP101 which
relate to preventing or reducing the formation of resistance in cytostatic treatment, a treatment typically used in cancer. These rights extend to approximately 2022.

We are the exclusive licensee of an issued U.S. patent relating to the composition of matter of SCV-07 and related products, as well as similar pending foreign patent applications.

Proprietary Rights

In addition to our patent protection, we intend to use other means to protect our proprietary rights. We may pursue marketing exclusivity periods that are available under regulatory provisions in certain countries
including the United States, Europe and Japan.

Orphan drug protection has been or may be sought where available if such protection also
grants additional market exclusivity. We have obtained orphan drug designation for thymosin alpha 1 for the treatment of malignant melanoma in the United States and for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma in the United States and in Europe. We
have obtained orphan drug designation for RP101 for the adjuct treatment of pancreatic cancer in the United States.

We have filed
trademark applications worldwide for ZADAXIN and other trademarks that appear on our commercial packaging and promotional literature. Copyrights for the commercial packaging may prevent counterfeit products or genuine but unauthorized products from
entering a particular country by parallel importation. Brand and trademark protection are particularly important to us in China. We have implemented anti-counterfeiting measures on commercial packaging and we are registering the packaging with
customs departments in countries where such procedures exist. We rely upon trade secrets, which we seek to protect in part by entering into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, corporate partners, suppliers and licensees.

MANUFACTURING

ZADAXIN is manufactured
for us by third parties under exclusive contract manufacturing and supply agreements. We closely monitor production runs of ZADAXIN and regularly conduct our own quality assurance audit programs. We believe the manufacturing facilities of our
contract suppliers are in compliance with the FDAs current Good Manufacturing Practices, and the Japanese or European equivalents of such standards.

The manufacture of RP101 is managed for us by RESprotect GmbH under an exclusive manufacturing and supply agreement for our phase 2 clinical trial as well as possible future commercial supplies.

In the event of the termination of an agreement with any single supplier, we believe that we would be able to enter into arrangements with other
suppliers with similar terms. We do not intend at this time to acquire or establish our own dedicated manufacturing facilities for any of our products. We believe that our current manufacturing partners have enough manufacturing capacity to supply
our clinical trials and to meet potential market demand should ZADAXIN be approved in the major pharmaceutical markets of the United States and Europe. We also believe that our current manufacturing partner for RP101 will be able to meet our phase 2
clinical trial needs.

COMPETITION

Our
competitors include biopharmaceutical companies, biotechnology firms, universities and other research institutions, both in the United States and abroad, that are actively engaged in research and development or marketing of products in the
therapeutic areas we are pursuing, particularly cancers such as malignant melanoma, pancreatic cancer and certain infectious diseases such as HCV and HBV. Currently, competitors are marketing drugs for HCV, HBV and cancer, or have products in
clinical trials. We believe that the principal competitive factors in this industry for a marketed drug include the efficacy, safety, price, therapeutic regimen, manufacturing, quality assurance and associated patents and the capabilities of its
marketer.

In addition, most of our competitors, particularly large biopharmaceutical companies, have substantially greater financial,
technical, regulatory, manufacturing, marketing and human resource capabilities than SciClone. Most of them also have extensive experience in undertaking the preclinical and clinical testing and in obtaining the regulatory approvals necessary to
market drugs. Additional mergers and acquisitions in the pharmaceutical industry may result in even more resources being concentrated with our competitors.

##### Table of Contents

For the treatment of HCV, the only products approved in the United States and Europe are interferon
alpha, in both standard and pegylated forms, and ribavirin, which is useful only in combination with interferon alpha. In addition, there are several other potential therapeutic products currently in late-stage clinical trials.

For the treatment of late-stage melanoma, approved products are limited to DTIC and interferon. In the United States, interleukin 2 (IL-2) is
approved for late-stage melanoma, however due to its toxicity, therapy typically is limited to specialized treatment centers where patients must be monitored carefully for toxic side effects. No new therapies for late-stage melanoma have been
approved within the last five years, and survival outcomes remain extremely poor for late-stage patients. For the treatment of cancer, many companies are researching, developing, or marketing other products for use alone or in combination with other
therapies. In addition, we expect continuing advancements in and increasing awareness of the use of therapeutics which boost the immune system to fight cancer and infectious diseases. These developments may create new competitors.

For the treatment of HBV, current therapies being marketed by competitors include interferon alpha, in both standard and pegylated forms, nucleoside
analogues such as lamivudine, nucleotide analogue adefovir, and nucleoside analogue, entecavir. In addition to these products, in our largest market China, ZADAXIN faces competition from other synthetic and generic biological extracts, which are
locally manufactured and significantly lower priced.

Patients with advanced stages of pancreatic cancer are typically treated with
chemotherapeutic agents such as gemcitabine, alone or in combination with other therapeutics with minimal increases in overall survival.

Future clinical trials may or may not show ZADAXIN, RP101, or SCV-07 to have advantages or clinically significant synergistic value over such existing or future competitive products.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

A major portion of our
operating expenses to date is related to research and development (R&D). R&D expenses consist of independent R&D costs and costs associated with collaborative R&D and in-licensing arrangements. A substantial portion of our
development expense is third party expense relating to the conduct of clinical trials. R&D expenses were $17,446,000, $14,088,000, and $14,406,000, for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. We intend to maintain
our strong commitment to R&D as an essential component of our product development effort. Licensed technology developed by outside parties is an additional source of potential products.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2007, we had 200
employees, 32 in the United States, 159 in the Peoples Republic of China, and 9 in other countries. From time to time, we engage the services of consultants worldwide with pharmaceutical and business backgrounds to assist in our product
development and ZADAXIN commercialization activities. We plan to leverage our key personnel by continuing to make extensive use of clinical research organizations, contract laboratories, development consultants and collaborations with pharmaceutical
companies to develop and market our products.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Regulation by governmental authorities in the United States and foreign countries is a significant factor in the manufacturing and marketing of our products, as well as in ongoing research and development activities
and in pre-clinical and clinical trials and testing related to our products. If our products are manufactured, tested or sold in the United States, they will be regulated in accordance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, commonly referred
to as the FD&C Act and the U.S. Public Health Service Act. In addition to obtaining FDA approval for each product, each manufacturing establishment must be registered with the FDA. Manufacturing

##### Table of Contents

establishments are subject to inspections by the FDA and by other federal, state and local agencies and must comply with current U.S. Good Manufacturing
Practices (cGMP). In complying with cGMP standards, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area of production and quality assurance to ensure full technical compliance.

The steps required before a new drug or biological product may be distributed commercially in the United States generally include:



| |  |  | conducting appropriate pre-clinical laboratory evaluations, including animal studies, in compliance with the FDAs Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) requirements,
to assess the potential safety and efficacy of the product, and to characterize and document the products chemistry, manufacturing controls, formulation and stability;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | submitting the results of these evaluations and tests to the FDA, along with manufacturing information, analytical data, and protocols for clinical studies, in an
Investigational New Drug Application (IND), and receiving approval from the FDA that the clinical studies proposed under the IND are allowed to proceed;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | obtaining approval of Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) to administer the product to humans in clinical studies;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | conducting adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials in compliance with the FDAs Good Clinical Practice (GCP) requirements that establish the safety
and efficacy of the product candidate for the intended use, typically in the following three sequential, or slightly overlapping pre-approval stages:
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Phase 1:The drug is initially introduced into healthy human subjects or patients and tested for safety, dose tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution
and excretion;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Phase 2:The drug is studied in a limited number of patients with the disease or medical condition for which the new investigational drug is intended to
identify possible adverse effects and safety risks, to determine dose tolerance and the optimal effective dose and to collect initial efficacy data;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Phase 3:The drug is studied in an expanded patient population at multiple clinical study sites, to confirm efficacy and safety at the optimized dose, by
measuring a primary endpoint established at the outset of the study, and comparing it to that of established therapies, if any; and when required;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Phase 4:The drug is studied in an expanded patient population in a post-approval setting for continued monitoring of safety and sometimes continued
efficacy;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | development of manufacturing processes which conform to FDA current Good Manufacturing Practices, or cGMPs, as confirmed by FDA inspection;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | submitting to the FDA the results of pre-clinical studies, clinical studies, and adequate data on chemistry, manufacturing and control information to ensure
reproducible product quality batch after batch, in a New Drug Application (NDA) or Biologics License Application (BLA); and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | obtaining FDA approval of the NDA or BLA, including inspection and approval of the product manufacturing facility as compliant with cGMP requirements, prior to any
commercial sale or shipment of the pharmaceutical agent.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When used in connection with trials and filings in other
countries, terms such as phase 1, phase 2, phase 3, phase 4, new drug application and marketing application refer to what we believe are comparable trials and filings in these
other countries.

The process of obtaining regulatory approval is lengthy, uncertain, and requires the expenditure of substantial
resources. Each NDA or BLA must be accompanied by a user fee, pursuant to the requirements of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act, or PDUFA, and its amendments. The FDA adjusts the PDUFA user fees on an



17



---

##### Table of Contents

annual basis. According to the FDAs fee schedule, effective on October 1, 2007 for the U.S. federal governments fiscal year ending
September 30, 2008, the user fee for an application requiring clinical data, such as an NDA or BLA, is $1,178,000. PDUFA also imposes an annual product fee for prescription drugs and biologics ($65,030), and an annual establishment fee
($392,700) on facilities used to manufacture prescription drugs and biologics. Fee waivers or reductions are available in certain circumstances, including a waiver of the application fee for the first application filed by a small business. However,
there are no waivers for annual product or establishment fees. Additionally, no user fees are assessed on NDAs or BLAs for products designated as orphan drugs, unless the drug also includes a non-orphan indication, and if a contract manufacturer is
used, the contract manufacturer is responsible for the establishment fee.

After FDA approval has been obtained, the FDA requires
post-marketing reporting to monitor the side effects of the drug. Further studies may be required to provide additional data on the products risks, benefits, and optimal use, and will be required to gain approval for the use of the product as
a treatment for clinical indications other than those for which the product was initially tested. Results of post-marketing programs may limit or expand the further marketing of the product. Further, if there are any modifications to the drug,
including changes in indication, labeling, or a change in the manufacturing process or manufacturing facility, an NDA or BLA supplement may be required to be submitted to the FDA.

Additionally, after the FDA has authorized a drug product to enter commercial distribution, numerous regulatory requirements apply. These include, among
others, the cGMPs, which require manufacturers to follow extensive design, testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during the manufacturing process; labeling regulations; the FDAs general prohibition against
promoting drug products for unapproved or off-label uses; and adverse event reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their drug may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury. The FDA and
other regulatory agencies have broad post-market and regulatory and enforcement powers, and significant enforcement activity has occurred as to the sales and marketing practices of pharmaceutical companies. Failure to comply with the applicable U.S.
drug regulatory requirements could result in, among other things, Warning Letters, fines, injunctions, consent decrees, civil penalties, refunds, recalls or seizures of products (which would result in the cessation or reduction of production
volume), total or partial suspension of production, withdrawals or suspensions of current product applications, and criminal prosecution. Adverse events related to a drug product in any existing or future markets could cause regulatory authorities
to withdraw market approval for such product.

The FD&C Act includes provisions intended to facilitate and expedite the development and
review of drugs and biological products intended for treatment of serious or life-threatening conditions that demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical needs for such conditions. These provisions set forth a procedure for designation of a
drug and indication as a fast track product. Concurrent with or after an IND is filed, the sponsor may request designation as a fast track product, and the FDA is required to respond within 60 days.

An advantage of fast track designation is that sponsors may submit, and the FDA may commence review of, portions of an application before the complete
application is submitted, provided that the FDA approves a schedule for submission of the completed application. The sponsor of a fast track product also may seek and obtain accelerated approval, whereby FDA approval is based upon a determination
that the product has an effect on a clinical endpoint or on a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit. A product approved on this basis is subject to rigorous postmarket compliance requirements, and the sponsor may
be required to conduct post-approval studies to validate and/or confirm the endpoint. The FDA may withdraw accelerated approval if, for example, the sponsor fails to conduct required post-approval studies or disseminates false or misleading
promotional materials. A fast track product also ordinarily would be eligible for priority review of an NDA or BLA, although fast track designation is not required to be eligible for priority review.

The Orphan Drug provisions of the FD&C Act provide incentives to drug and biologics suppliers to
develop and supply drugs for the treatment of rare diseases, currently defined as diseases that affect fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States or, for a disease that affects more than 200,000 individuals in the United States, where the
sponsor does not realistically expect the costs of research and development of the drug for the indication can be recovered by sales of the drug in the United States. Under these provisions, a supplier of a designated orphan product can seek tax
benefits, and the holder of the first FDA approval of a designated orphan product will be granted a seven year period of marketing exclusivity for that product for the orphan indication. The marketing exclusivity of an orphan drug would prevent
other sponsors from obtaining approval of the same drug for the same indication without a showing of clinical superiority. It would not prevent other types of drugs from being approved for the same use. We have pursued orphan drug designations where
applicable for ZADAXIN (thymalfasin). Thymalfasin has been granted orphan designation by the FDA for the treatments of malignant melanoma and hepatocellular carcinoma.

In the European Union, incentives for suppliers to develop medicinal products for the treatment of rare diseases are provided pursuant to the Orphan Medicinal Products Regulation (Regulation (EC) 141/2000). Orphan
medicinal products are those products designed to diagnose, treat or prevent a condition which occurs so infrequently that the cost of developing and bringing the product to the market would not be recovered by the expected sale of the product. In
the EU, the criterion for designation is a prevalence of the relevant condition in no more than 5 per 10,000 of the population or that without incentives it is unlikely that the marketing of the product in the EU would generate sufficient
return and that it will be of significant benefit to those affected by the condition. The incentives include, amongst others, a reduction in the fees payable in respect of the marketing authorization application, protocol assistance for clinical
trials in support of the application, and marketing exclusivity once the authorization is granted. In the EU, marketing exclusivity is granted to products with an orphan drug designation for a period of 10 years during which the EU will not accept
another application for a marketing authorization for the same therapeutic indication in respect of a similar medicinal product, unless the second applicant can show its product is safer, more effective or otherwise clinically superior. A similar
medicinal product is defined as a medicinal product containing a similar active substance as contained in the authorized orphan medicinal product.

Thymalfasin has been granted orphan designation throughout the EU for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, it should be noted that, as in the United States, the granting of orphan drug status in the EU does not affect the
likelihood of success of obtaining regulatory approval or marketing authorization for the relevant product in any way.

Under the Drug
Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, or DPCPTRA, a sponsor may be granted marketing exclusivity for a period of time following FDA approval of certain drug applications, regardless of patent status, if the drug is a new
chemical entity or new clinical studies were used to support the marketing application. This marketing exclusivity would prevent a third party from obtaining FDA approval for a nearly identical or identical drug through an Abbreviated New Drug
Application, or ANDA, which is the application form typically used by suppliers seeking approval of a generic drug, or 505(b)(2) application. The DPCPTRA also allows a patent owner to extend the term of the patent for a period equal to one-half the
period of time elapsed between the filing of an IND and the filing of the corresponding NDA plus the period of time between the filing of the NDA and FDA approval with the maximum patent extension term being five years. The U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office, in consultation with the FDA, reviews and approves the application for the patent term extension.

The Best Pharmaceuticals for
Children Act, or BPCA, signed into law on January 4, 2002, was reauthorized and amended by the FDA Amendments Act of 2007 or FDAAA. The reauthorization of BPCA provides an additional six months of marketing exclusivity for new or marketed drugs
for certain pediatric testing conducted at the written request of the FDA. The Pediatric Research Equity Act, or PREA, signed into law on December 3, 2003, also was reauthorized and amended by FDAAA. The reauthorization of PREA requires that
most applications for drugs and biologics include a pediatric assessment (unless waived or deferred) to ensure the



19



---

##### Table of Contents

drugs or products safety and effectiveness in children. This Act required that new NDAs, BLAs or supplements to NDAs or BLAs contain data,
gathered using appropriate formulations for each age group for which the assessment is required, that are adequate to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug or biological product for the claimed indication in all relevant pediatric
subpopulations. Dosing and administration must be supported for each pediatric subpopulation for which the drug is safe and effective. The pediatric assessments can only be deferred provided there is a timeline for the completion of such studies.
FDA may waive (partially or fully) the pediatric assessment requirement for several reasons, including if the applicant can demonstrate that reasonable attempts to produce a pediatric formulation necessary for that age group have failed.

We may seek the benefits of additional orphan, exclusivity, patent term extension, or fast track provisions, with respect to ZADAXIN (thymalfasin) but
we cannot assure that we will be able to obtain any such benefits.

Outside the United States, we are subject to foreign regulations
governing human clinical trials and pharmaceutical sales. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary widely from country to country. Whether or not FDA approval has been obtained,
approval of a product by the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries is required prior to the commencement of marketing of our products in those countries. The approval process varies from country to country and the time required for
approval may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA approval. In general, foreign countries use one of three forms of regulatory approval process. In one form, local clinical trials must be undertaken and the data must be compiled and
submitted for review and approval. In Japan, for example, the process is time consuming and costly because certain pre-clinical studies and clinical trials must be conducted in Japan. A second form of approval process requires clinical trial
submissions, but permits use of foreign clinical trials and typically also requires some form of local trial as well. This is the case in China, however, the SFDA also requires that an imported drug must also have country of origin approval for the
same indication. A third form of approval process does not require local clinical trials, but rather contemplates submission of an application including proof of approval by countries that have clinical trial review procedures. Thus, a prior
approval in one or more of the countries, such as United States, Japan, most European Union countries or Australia, among others, is often sufficient for approval in countries using this third form of approval process.

We have received regulatory approvals to market ZADAXIN in China, to have ZADAXIN manufactured in and to export the product from Italy. In order to
continue our sales to China, we need to maintain these approvals. Our license to import ZADAXIN into China needs to be renewed every five years and the next renewal is required in the first half of 2008. Although we have been successful in obtaining
a prior renewal, there is no assurance that we will receive renewals when applied for or that the renewals will not be conditioned or limited in ways that limit our ability to conduct business in China. Further, our licenses to manufacture and
export ZADAXIN from Italy are dependent upon our continuing compliance with regulations in Italy. Our business would be adversely affected if we are not able to maintain these approvals.

The FDA regulates the export of drugs or bulk pharmaceuticals from the United States. In general, a drug that has been approved for commercial sale in
the United States may be exported for commercial sale. An unapproved drug may be exported to a listed country (Australia, Canada, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Switzerland, South Africa, and countries in the European Union and the European
Economic Area) for investigational purposes without FDA authorization if exported in accordance with laws of the foreign country, and in accordance with the export requirements. Export of drugs to an unlisted country for clinical trial purposes
continues to require FDA approval. An unapproved drug can be exported to any country for commercial purposes without prior FDA approval, provided that the drug (i) complies with the laws of that country, and (ii) has valid marketing
authorization or the equivalent from the appropriate authority in a listed country. Export of drugs not approved in the United States that do not have marketing authorization in a listed country continue to require FDA export approval. We have
obtained, where necessary, FDA approval for all exports of ZADAXIN from the United States for clinical trial purposes, and will seek to obtain FDA approval, where necessary, for any future shipments from the United States to any unlisted country.

We are also subject to various federal, state and local laws, regulations and recommendations relating to
safe working conditions, clinical, laboratory and manufacturing practices, the experimental use of animals, environmental protection, fire hazard control and the use and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances, including
radioactive products and infectious disease agents, used in connection with research work and preclinical and clinical trials and testing. The extent of government regulation that might result from future legislation or administrative action in
these areas cannot be accurately predicted and could prevent or delay regulatory approval of any of our products.

The level of revenues
and profitability of pharmaceutical companies may be affected by the continuing efforts of governmental and third party payors to contain or reduce the costs of health care through various means, including the extent and availability of
reimbursement. We are unable to predict when any proposed health care reforms will be implemented, if ever, or the effect of the implemented reforms on our business. Our ability to commercialize future products will depend in part on the extent to
which coverage and reimbursement for the products will be available from government and health administration authorities, private health insurers, and other third-party payors.

THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT

Our ability to successfully commercialize our products may depend in part
on the extent to which coverage and reimbursement to patients for our products will be available from government health care programs, private health insurers and other third-party payors or organizations. Significant uncertainty exists as to the
reimbursement status of new therapeutic products, such as ZADAXIN. In most of the markets in which we are currently approved to sell ZADAXIN, reimbursement for ZADAXIN under government or private health insurance programs is not yet widely
available, and in many of these countries government resources and per capita income may be so low that our products will be prohibitively expensive. We believe that most of the sales of ZADAXIN in China are made without third party reimbursement.
In the United States, Europe and Japan, proposed health care reforms could limit the amount of governmental or third-party reimbursement available for our products should they be approved for sale in these markets. Various governments and
third-party payors are trying to contain or reduce the costs of health care through various means. We expect that there will continue to be legislative efforts and proposals to implement such government controls.

Our revenue is dependent on the sale of ZADAXIN in foreign countries, particularly China, and if we experience
difficulties in our foreign sales efforts, our operating results and financial condition will be harmed.

Our product revenue is highly
dependent on the sale of ZADAXIN in foreign countries. If we experience difficulties in our foreign sales efforts, our business will suffer and our operating results and financial condition will be harmed. For each of the years ended
December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 approximately 92%, 92% and 91%, respectively, of our ZADAXIN sales were to customers in China. Sales of ZADAXIN in China may be limited due to the low average personal income, lack of patient cost
reimbursement, poorly developed infrastructure and existing and potential competition from other products, including generics. ZADAXIN sales growth in recent years has benefited from the rapidly growing Chinese economy and growing personal
disposable income. Sales of ZADAXIN in China could be adversely affected by a slowing or downturn of the Chinese economy. In China, ZADAXIN is approved only for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and as a vaccine adjuvant. We face competition
from certain large, global pharmaceutical companies who are aggressively marketing competing products for the treatment of HBV and other indications where ZADAXIN is used on an off-label basis. In addition, several local companies are selling lower
priced locally manufactured generic thymosin, which is a competitive product and is selling in substantial and increasing quantities. While generic products outsell ZADAXIN in unit volumes, we have been able to maintain an advantage through the
reputation of our imported, branded product. We expect such competition to continue and there could be a negative impact on the price and the volume of ZADAXIN sold in China, which would harm our business. Our efforts to in-license other
pharmaceutical products for marketing in China and other markets may be unsuccessful or may not have a meaningful effect on our dependence on ZADAXIN sales in those markets.

We do not have product sales in the United States, Europe or Japan with which to offset any decrease in our revenue from ZADAXIN sales in Asia, Latin
America and the Middle East, and sales outside of China have not been substantial to date. Some countries in these regions, including China, regulate pharmaceutical prices and pharmaceutical importation. These regulations may reduce prices for
ZADAXIN to levels significantly below those that would prevail in an unregulated market, limit the volume of product which may be imported and sold or place high import duties on the product, any of which may limit the growth of our revenues or
cause them to decline. We believe that the Chinese government is increasing its efforts to reduce overall health care costs, including through pricing controls. Individual provinces in China and, in some cases, individual hospitals can and have
established pricing requirements for a product to be included on formulary lists. These prices may be lower than our distributors have been selling ZADAXIN in which case we have been removed from formulary lists, which consequently has reduced sales
to certain hospitals and could adversely affect our future sales.

We have received regulatory approvals to market ZADAXIN in China and to
manufacture ZADAXIN and export the product from Italy. In order to continue our sales to China, we need to maintain these approvals. Our license to import ZADAXIN into China needs to be renewed every five years and the next renewal is required in
the first half of 2008. Although we have been successful in obtaining a prior renewal, there is no assurance that we will receive renewals when applied for or that the renewals will not be conditioned or limited in ways that limit our ability to
conduct business in China. Further, our licenses to manufacture and export ZADAXIN from Italy are dependent upon our continuing compliance with regulations in Italy. Our business would be adversely affected if we are not able to maintain these
approvals.

Our ZADAXIN sales and operations in other parts of Asia, as well as in Latin America and the Middle East, are subject to a
number of risks, including difficulties and delays in obtaining registrations, renewals of registrations, permits, pricing approvals and reimbursement, unexpected changes in regulatory requirements and political instability.

We are also subject to the laws and regulations of other countries regarding the marketing, sale and distribution of our products in those countries
where approvals have been obtained. We experience other issues with managing foreign sales operations including long payment cycles, potential difficulties in accounts

receivable collection and, especially from significant customers, fluctuations in the timing and amount of orders. Operations in foreign countries also
expose us to risks relating to difficulties in enforcing our proprietary rights, currency fluctuations and adverse or deteriorating economic conditions. If we experience problems with obtaining registrations, complying with reimbursement rules or
compliance with foreign country or applicable U.S. laws, or if we experience difficulties in payments or intellectual property matters in foreign jurisdictions, or if significant political, economic or regulatory changes occur, our results could be
adversely affected. Moreover, many of these operations, which are carried out in various parts of the world including in particular across China and thus cover a vast geography, are potentially subject to the laws and regulations of the United
States including through the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, in addition to the laws and regulations of the local countries, and in particular China. Regulation in China of the activities in the pharmaceutical industry has recently increased and may
continue to undergo significant and unanticipated changes. If we fail to comply with regulations or to carry out controls on our Chinese or other foreign operations in a manner that satisfy all applicable laws, our business would be harmed.

We may need to obtain additional capital to support our long-term product development and commercialization programs.

We believe we need to raise additional capital in 2008 to fund our operations, including anticipated clinical trials, beyond 2008. We are exploring
various alternatives for financing in addition to sales of equity of SciClone, including a line of credit, debt financing and financing of our Chinese operations either through debt, equity or joint venture transactions, but we have not determined
the timing or structure of any transaction. However, we cannot assure you that such funds will be sufficient, or that we will attain profitable operations in future periods. In addition, we intend to develop other products and we may need additional
funds in the future to support such development and to support future growth and achieve profitability. If we need to raise additional funds in the future and such funds are not available on reasonable terms, if at all, our commercialization efforts
may be impeded, our revenues may be limited and our operating results may suffer.

Final results from our ongoing clinical trials for thymalfasin,
SCV-07, and RP101 may differ materially from interim or pre-clinical trial results. These clinical trials could be affected by the future actions of our partners, unexpected delays, unanticipated patient drop out rates or adverse side effects,
future actions by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or equivalent regulatory authorities in Europe or additional expenses.

Clinical trials are inherently risky and may reveal that our product candidates are ineffective or have unanticipated drug interactions that may significantly decrease the likelihood of regulatory approval. The results of the Mexican triple
therapy pilot trial using thymalfasin to treat HCV do not necessarily predict that the phase 3 clinical trial using thymalfasin as part of a triple therapy to treat HCV will be successful. The results of this trial may be different, or not
statistically significant. Similarly, the results of our thymalfasin phase 2 melanoma clinical trial does not necessarily predict future clinical or commercial success. SCV-07 and RP101 pre-clinical and phase 1 trial results also do not predict
clinical or commercial success.

We may face numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or
prevent commercialization of our product candidates including: our product candidate clinical trials may not prove statistical significance; negative or inconclusive clinical trial results may require us to conduct further testing or we may choose
to abandon projects that we had been expecting to complete; patient drop out rates in our clinical trial may be higher than anticipated; the FDA, its European equivalent EMEA or the Chinese State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) may not approve
our products for commercialization or may require additional clinical trial data prior to approving our products.

Commercialization of some of our
products depends on collaborations with others. If our collaborators are not successful, or if we are unable to find future collaborators, we may not be able to properly develop and commercialize our products.

We depend in part on our distributors and business partners to develop or promote our drugs, and if they are not successful in their efforts or fail to
do so, our business will suffer. For example, Sigma-Tau is responsible for

##### Table of Contents

the development and marketing of ZADAXIN (thymalfasin) in most of Europe. Biocompatibles is primarily responsible for the efforts to obtain regulatory
approval in China for the DC Bead, and RESprotect is primarily responsible for the scale-up of production for RP101. We generally do not have control over the amount and timing of resources that our business partners devote to our collaborative
efforts, and some have not always performed as or when expected. If they do not perform their obligations as we expect, particularly obligations regarding clinical trials, our development expenses would increase and the development or sale of our
products could be limited or delayed, which could hurt our business and cause our stock price to decline. In addition, our relationships with these companies may not be successful. Disputes may arise with our collaborators, including disputes over
ownership rights to intellectual property, know-how or technologies developed with our collaborators. We may not be able to negotiate similar additional arrangements in the future to develop and commercialize ZADAXIN or other products.

We rely on third parties to supply our clinical trial and commercial products. Deficiencies in their work could delay or harm one or more important areas of our
business including our sales, clinical trials or the regulatory approval process.

We rely on third parties, who are subject to
regulatory oversight, to supply our clinical and commercial products. The manufacturing of the raw material and the processing to finished product of ZADAXIN is done in few batches in any given three-month period. Manufacturing interruptions or
failure or delay of product to meet quality assurance specifications could adversely affect shipments and recognition of sales of ZADAXIN in any period and impair our relationships with customers and our competitive position. During 2006, we
experienced failures and lower yields on production runs from our sole supplier of bulk product for the manufacture of ZADAXIN for our current markets including China and our current ZADAXIN clinical trials. We have taken and are taking various
actions to ensure that our sales are not interrupted; through the end of 2007, our planned inventory levels of finished product have been met by additional production runs and our sales of ZADAXIN and supply of clinical trial product have been
unaffected. However, the production run failures and the related costs incurred in additional production runs are circumstances that have not been economical for our supplier. Our supplier is working to remedy the production problems, but has not
been able to produce our product at targeted yields and costs. Until the production problems are remedied, we may suffer production problems that may cause future interruptions in product supply that may harm our business. In addition, if sales of
ZADAXIN were to increase dramatically, our third-party suppliers may not be able to supply ZADAXIN quickly enough, which could limit our ability to satisfy increased demand or could adversely affect the ability of these suppliers to provide products
for our clinical trials. In addition, Biocompatibles is the sole supplier of the DC Bead. If unanticipated deficiencies in these suppliers occur, we could experience delays in our ability to fulfill regulatory requirements which may adversely affect
our sales or prospects for regulatory marketing approvals. We have an exclusive supplier of pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin for our European phase 3 HCV clinical trial, who also supplied all of the pegylated interferon used in our U.S.
phase 3 HCV clinical trials, and RESprotect is the exclusive supplier of RP101 for our phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of RP101. Any unanticipated deficiencies in these suppliers, recall of the manufacturing lots or similar action
regarding the pegylated interferon alpha, ribavirin or RP101 used in our clinical trials could delay the trials or detract from the integrity of the trial data and its potential use in future regulatory filings.

We rely on third parties and corporate collaborators to conduct clinical trials and these third parties may not perform satisfactorily.

We rely on third parties including Sigma Tau, as well as contract research organizations, medical institutions, clinical investigators, contract
laboratories, and collaborative partners in the conduct of clinical trials for our product candidates. If these parties, whom we do not control, do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or regulatory obligations or meet expected
deadlines or choose not to continue their relationship with us, if the third parties need to be replaced, or if the quality or accuracy of the data they obtain is compromised due to the failure to adhere to our clinical protocols or regulatory
requirements or for other reasons, our pre-clinical or clinical activities may be extended, delayed, suspended or terminated, and we may not be able



24

##### Table of Contents

to obtain regulatory approval for, or successfully commercialize our product candidates. We are in discussions with Sigma-Tau regarding the sharing of
expenditures for future thymalfasin trials and have not determined responsibilities for the various trials. The outcome of these negotiations will affect our future operating results including the timing of proceeding with such trials.

If third-party reimbursement is not available or patients cannot otherwise pay for ZADAXIN, the DC Bead or RP101, we may not be able to successfully market them.

Significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of new therapeutic products, such as ZADAXIN, the DC Bead and RP101. We
cannot assure you that third-party insurance coverage and reimbursement will be available for therapeutic products we might develop. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain or increase third-party payments for ZADAXIN or obtain
third-party payments for the DC Bead in China. The failure to obtain or maintain third-party reimbursement for our products would harm our business. Further, we cannot assure you that additional limitations will not be imposed in the future in the
United States or elsewhere on drug coverage and reimbursement due to proposed health care reforms. Our commercial rights to RP101 are limited to the United States and Canada. In many emerging markets where we have marketing rights to ZADAXIN, but
where government resources and per capita income may be so low that our products will be prohibitively expensive, we may not be able to market our products on economically favorable terms, if at all.

Efforts by governmental and third-party payers to contain or reduce health care costs or the announcement of legislative proposals or reforms to
implement government controls could cause us to reduce the prices at which we market our drugs, which would reduce our gross margins and may harm our business.

Additional clinical trials will be required for the successful U.S. and European commercialization of ZADAXIN and for the continued success of our commercialization efforts in China and other markets. If the results of clinical trials
are not favorable, we will be unable to obtain regulatory approval for the intended indications we are evaluating and our sales efforts in China and other markets where ZADAXIN is approved will be harmed.

Our ability to achieve and sustain operating profitability depends in large part on our ability to commence, execute and complete clinical programs and
obtain additional regulatory approvals for ZADAXIN and other drug candidates, particularly in the United States and Europe. We are also dependent on our ability to increase ZADAXIN sales in China and other markets. In particular, our ability to
achieve and sustain profitability will depend in large part on our ability to commercialize ZADAXIN for the treatment of HCV or malignant melanoma in the United States and Europe and RP101 in the United States and Canada.

To obtain regulatory approvals, we must, among other requirements, complete carefully controlled and well-designed clinical trials demonstrating that a
particular drug is safe and effective for the applicable disease. We cannot depend on data from prior trial results to predict or demonstrate that our potential drug products are safe and efficacious under regulatory guidelines to qualify for
commercial sale. In December 2005 and June 2006, we reported final results from our two U.S. phase 3 trials evaluating the double therapy combination of ZADAXIN and pegylated interferon alpha to treat HCV patients who had failed previous therapy.
The results from these trials did not demonstrate that ZADAXIN in combination with pegylated interferon alpha provides a statistically significant clinical benefit when compared with pegylated interferon alpha alone. Although we do not believe that
the news of these results had any significant effect on our sales to China, we cannot assure you that our results will not be harmed if final data from current clinical trials are negative. Our European partner, Sigma-Tau, is conducting a triple
therapy combination (ZADAXIN plus pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin) HCV clinical trial in Europe. We expect to report final data from this 553 patient phase 3 clinical trial in the third quarter of 2008.

The current standard of care for HCV therapy is the combination of pegylated interferon alpha with ribavirin. This combination is not approved by the FDA
or the EMEA for the treatment of non-responders,



25

##### Table of Contents

however, in clinical practice pegylated interferon alpha with ribavirin is widely used for the treatment of both treatment naïve and non-responder HCV
patients. The European HCV phase 3 clinical trial being conducted by Sigma-Tau has been designed to compare the efficacy of the triple combination of thymalfasin, pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin with the current standard of care. As with
the FDA, the EMEA generally requires two confirmatory phase 3 clinical trials to support their equivalent of a New Drug Application (NDA). Therefore, results of the current triple therapy combination trial, even if positive and statistically
significant, would by themselves likely be insufficient to support an NDA to the EMEA, and results from a second confirmatory phase 3 clinical trial would be needed. We cannot assure you that we or our European partner, Sigma-Tau, will undertake
such trial, that any clinical trial of the triple therapy combination will yield favorable results, that we will receive approval for ZADAXIN for the treatment of HCV in Europe or the United States or for the treatment of HCV in other countries, or
that we will achieve significant levels of sales. If we are unable to do so, our business will be harmed.

In June 2007, we and Sigma-Tau
announced positive survival data from a phase 2 trial in Europe evaluating ZADAXIN in combination with dacarbazine (DTIC) chemotherapy with and without low-dose interferon alpha to treat patients with stage IV, the most advanced and imminently fatal
form of, malignant melanoma. The data indicated that thymalfasin in combination with DTIC chemotherapy tripled the overall response rate, the trials primary endpoint, and extended overall survival by nearly 3 months compared to patients
treated with DTIC, the current standard of care, and interferon alpha. DTIC is the only approved therapy in the United States for the treatment of advanced melanoma.

We, in collaboration with Sigma-Tau, in October 2007, shared the melanoma clinical data and received approval from the FDA to initiate phase 3 registration trials. We also intend to approach the EMEA to discuss our
plans to initiate phase 3 registration trials. We cannot assure you that the final design of any trial that is approved will meet our expectations, that we or Sigma-Tau will receive approval for the indication or that we will achieve significant
levels of sales. Further, we have not reached agreement on expense sharing for the trial, and our future expenses and ability to proceed with the trial are dependent in part on the conclusion of such discussions. If we cannot proceed with the trial
for any reason or the trial is unsuccessful, or even if successful, if we do not achieve commercially meaningful results, our business will be harmed.

Higher than anticipated patient drop out rates in our clinical trials could adversely affect trial results and make it more difficult to obtain regulatory approval.

In December 2005 and June 2006, we announced results from our two U.S. phase 3 HCV clinical trials. These clinical trials did not demonstrate that the
combination of ZADAXIN and pegylated interferon alpha provides a statistically significant clinical benefit when compared to the use of pegylated interferon alpha alone in non-responder patients. These results made Sigma-Taus efforts to fully
recruit patients for the currently ongoing ZADAXIN phase 3 HCV triple therapy combination trial more difficult and enrollment took longer than planned. Enrollment of the 553 patients in this trial was completed in December 2006. In addition, HCV
clinical trials are lengthy. The trials require patient treatment for 48 weeks and a follow-up observation period for an additional 24 weeks. Patient dropouts are expected and each of our two phase 3 HCV clinical trials in the United States enrolled
more than the planned number of 500 patients, but even then dropouts were higher than anticipated. A patient who drops out at any point in the 72 weeks of the trial is considered a failure to respond in results of the clinical trial. In
general, the fewer patients who complete each trial, the higher the positive response rate for the group of remaining thymalfasin treated patients in such trial needs to be in order to demonstrate statistical significance. Therefore, a higher than
anticipated dropout rate lowers the chances of proving statistical significance which could adversely affect clinical trial results. Dropouts did not prevent us from completing our U.S. phase 3 HCV clinical trials. However, dropouts may affect the
final results of the European phase 3 HCV triple therapy combination trial and may affect the pancreatic cancer phase 2 clinical trial for RP101 and other trials we conduct.

We cannot predict the safety profile of the use of thymalfasin, RP101 or SCV-07 when used in combination with other
drugs.

Many of our trials involve the use of thymalfasin in combination with other drugs and our pancreatic cancer clinical trial
involves RP101 in combination with gemcitabine. SCV-07 may be developed to be used in combination with other drugs. Some of these drugs, particularly pegylated interferon alpha, ribavirin, non-pegylated interferon alpha, dacarbazine and gemcitabine
are known to cause adverse patient reactions. We cannot predict how ZADAXIN, RP101 or SCV-07 will work with other drugs, including causing possible adverse side effects not directly attributable to the other drugs that could compromise the safety
profile of thymalfasin, RP101 or SCV-07 when used in certain combination therapies.

If we do not obtain regulatory approval for thymalfasin or RP101
for the intended indications that we are evaluating, our revenues will be limited and we may never become profitable.

Our ability to
execute on our business strategy is largely dependent on our ability to obtain regulatory approval for the use of thymalfasin, particularly in the United States and Europe, and for the use of RP101 in the United States. The regulatory approval
processes in the United States and Europe are demanding and typically require 12 months or more in the United States and 18 months or more in Europe from the date of submission of an NDA. We have committed significant resources, including capital
and time, to develop these products, and intend to continue to do so, including the initiation and execution of additional clinical trials, with the goal of obtaining such approvals. If we do not obtain these approvals, we will be unable to achieve
any revenue from these products in these major markets and our thymalfasin sales in other jurisdictions could decline.

All new drugs,
including our products, which have been developed or are under development, are subject to extensive and rigorous regulation by the FDA and comparable agencies in state and local jurisdictions and in foreign countries. These regulations govern,
among other things, the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, storage, pre-market approval, importation, advertising, promotion, sale and distribution of our products. These regulations may change from time to time and new regulations may
be adopted.

Obtaining regulatory approval in developing countries also is time-consuming and expensive. In some countries where we are
contemplating marketing and selling thymalfasin, the regulatory approval process often relies on prior approvals obtained in the United States or in Europe. Without such prior approvals, our ability to obtain regulatory approvals for thymalfasin in
these countries may be delayed or prevented. In addition, to secure these regulatory approvals, we will need, among other things, to demonstrate favorable results from additional clinical trials of thymalfasin. Even if we are able to complete the
clinical trials we have sponsored or are planning in a timely or cost-effective manner, these trials may not fulfill the applicable regulatory approval criteria, in which case we will not be able to obtain regulatory approval in these countries, and
we have experienced such difficulties and have been unable to meet such regulatory filing requirements. We cannot assure you that we will ultimately obtain regulatory approvals in our targeted countries in a timely and cost-effective manner or at
all. If we fail to obtain the required regulatory approvals to develop, market and sell thymalfasin in countries where we currently do not have such rights, our revenues will be limited, and our future prospects will be dependent upon our ability to
in-license or to bring earlier stage products to market, any of which will require substantial financial expenditures.

Satisfaction of
government regulations may take several years and the time needed to satisfy them varies substantially based on the type, complexity and novelty of the pharmaceutical product. As a result, government regulation may cause us to delay the introduction
of, or prevent us from marketing, our existing or potential products for a considerable period of time and impose costly procedures upon our activities. Even if we obtain regulatory approval for our products, such approval may impose limitations on
the indicated uses for which our products may be marketed. Unsatisfactory data resulting from clinical trials may also adversely affect our ability to market and sell thymalfasin in markets where it is approved for sale.

Regulatory approval is necessary to permit us to market the DC Bead in China. If we are unable to secure regulatory
approval in China, we will be unable to market the DC Bead in China and our future sales potential in this market could be harmed.

In
June 2006, we announced our agreement with Biocompatibles International plc. (Biocompatibles) to become the exclusive distributor in China of the DC Bead, a chemotherapeutic drug delivery embolic agent designed to be used in the treatment of liver
cancer. While the DC Bead is approved in Europe for the use in the treatment of malignant hypervascularized tumors, it has not yet received regulatory approval in China. Biocompatibles is responsible, with our assistance and financial support of 50%
of all costs, for seeking and obtaining the regulatory approval for marketing the product in China. We, on behalf of Biocompatibles, filed a regulatory submission in China in December 2006; however, we cannot give assurance that such submission will
be approved by the regulatory authorities. If clinical trials in China are required as part of the regulatory process, the regulatory submission for marketing approval could be delayed for a considerable period of time, and there can be no assurance
that the results of clinical trials would support a regulatory submission or that the regulatory authorities would approve the product to be commercialized and sold in China. To the extent that additional information or clinical trials are required
by the regulatory authorities, or we do not receive regulatory approval in China, our future sales potential in China could be harmed.

If we are not
able to establish and maintain adequate manufacturing relationships, the development and sale of our products could be impaired.

To be
successful, our products must be manufactured in commercial quantities, in compliance with stringent regulatory requirements and at an acceptable cost. Typically we have at any time only one supplier for each phase of manufacturing of our product.
At present, we are in the process of negotiating a new long-term supply agreement with our sole supplier of bulk product for the manufacture of thymalfasin for our current markets including China. Failure to secure such agreement, or on favorable
terms, would harm our business. The manufacturing facilities of our suppliers are subject to inspection by regulatory authorities to ensure their compliance with regulatory requirements and standards. Manufacturing interruptions or failure to comply
with regulatory requirements could significantly delay clinical development of potential products and reduce third-party or clinical researcher interest and support of proposed trials. These interruptions or failures could also impede
commercialization of our products, including sales of thymalfasin in approved markets, and impair our competitive position. Any of these developments would harm our business.

We are in the process of registering a new supplier for thymalfasin with regulatory agencies in markets where thymalfasin is approved for sale. We have
received such registration in China. This process, quality assurance and other steps could cause delays or interruptions of supply in certain other markets. In some countries, a manufacturing change may require additional regulatory approvals that
may delay thymalfasin marketing approvals in new markets. In addition, manufacturing, supply and quality control problems may arise as we, either alone or with subcontractors, attempt to scale-up our manufacturing procedures. We may not be able to
scale-up in a timely manner or at a commercially reasonable cost, either of which could cause delays or pose a threat to the ultimate commercialization of our products and harm our business.

Our business strategy is dependent on our ability to in-license or otherwise acquire the rights to develop and commercialize products. If we fail to acquire such
rights or are unsuccessful in our efforts to develop such products and obtain regulatory approval to market and successfully commercialize them, our business will suffer.

All of our products, including thymalfasin, the only one for which we have sales revenue, have been in-licensed by us. We do not conduct product
discovery and typically have in-licensed our products from third parties who have discovered the products and conducted at least some pre-clinical research on them. The competition for attractive products to in-license is intense, and we cannot
assure you that we will be able to in-license products in the future on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, we face the risks of developing the



28



---

##### Table of Contents

in-licensed products and the risks and uncertainties of conducting clinical trials and seeking regulatory approval to market the in-licensed products, all of
which require years of effort and the commitment of significant financial resources. Our ability to grow our business requires the development and commercialization of additional products. If we are unable to in-license products on acceptable terms
and successfully develop and commercialize them, our business could be harmed.

If we lose key personnel or are unable to attract and retain additional,
highly skilled and experienced personnel required for the expansion of our activities, our business will suffer.

We are highly
dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel because of the specialized, scientific and worldwide nature of our business. There is intense competition for qualified management, scientific, clinical, regulatory, and sales and
marketing personnel in the pharmaceutical industry, and we may not be able to attract and retain the qualified personnel we need to grow and develop our business globally. In particular, our efforts to in-license or acquire, develop and
commercialize product candidates for China require the addition of clinical and regulatory personnel and the capabilities to expand our sales and marketing operation. In addition, we assign numerous key responsibilities to a limited number of
individuals, and we would experience difficulty in finding immediate replacements for any of them. If we were unable to attract and retain qualified personnel as needed or promptly replace those employees who are critical to our product development
and commercialization, the development and commercialization of our products would be adversely affected. At this time, we do not maintain key person life insurance on any of our personnel.

Because of Chinas tiered method of importing and distributing finished pharmaceutical products, our quarterly results may vary substantially from one period to
the next.

China uses a tiered method to import and distribute finished pharmaceutical products. At each port of entry, and prior to
moving the product forward to the distributors, government-licensed importing agents must process and evaluate each shipment to determine whether such shipment satisfies Chinas quality assurance requirements. In order to efficiently manage
this process, the importing agents typically place large, and therefore relatively few, orders within any six month period. Therefore, our sales to an importing agent can vary substantially from quarter to quarter depending on the size and timing of
the orders, which has in the past and may in the future cause our quarterly results to fluctuate. We rely on three to six importers, in any given quarter, to supply substantially all of our product in China. Because we use a small number of
importing agents in China, our receivables from any one importing agent are material, and if we were unable to collect receivables from any importer, our business and cash-flow would be adversely affected.

Changes in Chinas political, social and economic environment may affect our financial performance.

Our financial performance may be affected by changes in Chinas political, social and economic environment. The role of the Chinese central and
local governments in the Chinese economy is significant. Chinese policies toward economic liberalization, and laws and policies affecting foreign companies, currency exchange rates and other matters could change, resulting in greater restrictions on
our ability to do business in China. Any imposition of surcharges or any increase in Chinese tax rates could hurt our operating results. The Chinese government could revoke, terminate or suspend our license for national security and similar reasons
without compensation to us. If the government of China were to take any of these actions, we would be prevented from conducting all or part of our business. Any failure on our part to comply with governmental regulations could result in the loss of
our ability to market our products in China.

Our sales of thymalfasin may fluctuate due to seasonality of product orders and sales in any quarter may
not be indicative of future sales.

Our sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were greatly affected by the demand in China for
thymalfasin in connection with the treatment of SARS. To date, SARS has not re-emerged, like influenza, as a seasonal



29



---

##### Table of Contents

public health problem. However, if SARS or a similar epidemic were to emerge, it is not possible to predict what effect, if any, this would have on future
sales of thymalfasin. Although we do not market thymalfasin for use in treating such epidemic diseases, if thymalfasin is purchased in connection with future outbreaks of seasonal viral contagions, product sales could become more concentrated in
certain quarters of the calendar year, quarterly sales levels could fluctuate and sales in any quarter may not be indicative of sales in future periods.

If we fail to protect our products, technologies and trade secrets, we may not be able to successfully use, manufacture, market or sell our products, or we may fail to advance or maintain our competitive position, and we have limited
intellectual property protection in China.

Our success depends significantly on our ability to obtain and maintain meaningful patent
protection for our products and technologies and to preserve our trade secrets. Our pending patent applications may not result in the issuance of patents in the future. Our patents or patent applications may not have priority over others
applications. Our existing patents and additional patents that may be issued, if any, may not provide a competitive advantage to us or may be invalidated or circumvented by our competitors. Others may independently develop similar products or design
around patents issued or licensed to us. Patents issued to, or patent applications filed by, other companies could harm our ability to use, manufacture, market or sell our products or maintain our competitive position with respect to our products.
Although many of our patents relating to thymalfasin have expired, including composition of matter patents, we have rights to other patents and patent applications relating to thymalfasin and thymalfasin analogues, including method of use patents
with respect to the use of thymalfasin for certain indications. Additionally, thymosin alpha 1 (thymalfasin), the chemical composition of thymalfasin, has received Orphan Drug designation in the United States for the treatment of stage IIb through
stage IV malignant melanoma. If other parties develop generic forms of thymalfasin for other indications, including conducting clinical trials for such indications, our patents and other rights might not be sufficient to prohibit them from marketing
and selling such generic forms of thymalfasin. If other parties develop analogues or derivatives of thymalfasin, our patents and other rights might not be sufficient to prohibit them from marketing these analogues or derivatives.

Pharmaceutical products are either not patentable or have only recently become patentable in some of the countries in which we market or may market
thymalfasin. We do not have patent protection for thymalfasin in China, our largest market. Other companies market generic thymosin alpha 1 in China, sometimes in violation of our trademark or other rights which we defend by informing physicians and
hospitals of the practice as well as through the limited legal recourse. Past enforcement of intellectual property rights in many of these countries, including China in particular, has been limited or non-existent. Future enforcement of patents and
proprietary rights in many other countries will likely be problematic or unpredictable. Moreover, the issuance of a patent in one country does not assure the issuance of a similar patent in another country. Claim interpretation and infringement laws
vary by nation, so the extent of any patent protection is uncertain and may vary in different jurisdictions.

If we are involved in intellectual
property claims and litigation, the proceedings may divert our resources and subject us to significant liability for damages, substantial litigation expense and the loss of our proprietary rights.

Our commercial success depends in part on us not infringing valid, enforceable patents or proprietary rights of third parties, and not breaching any
licenses that may relate to our technologies and products. We are aware of a third-party patent that may relate to our products and may cover a method of action used by thymalfasin. We cannot assure you that our mechanism of action does not infringe
on their claim. In addition, we may not be aware of all patents or patent applications that may impact our ability to make, use or sell any of our potential products. For example, U.S. patent applications may be kept confidential for 12 or more
months while pending in the Patent and Trademark Office, and patent applications filed in foreign countries are often first published six months or more after filing. It is possible that we may unintentionally infringe these patents or other patents
or proprietary rights of third parties. We may in the future receive notices claiming infringement from third parties



30

##### Table of Contents

as well as invitations to take licenses under third-party patents. Any legal action against us or our collaborative partners claiming damages and seeking to
enjoin commercial activities relating to our products and processes affected by third-party rights may require us or our collaborative partners to obtain licenses in order to continue to manufacture or market the affected products and processes. Our
efforts to defend against any of these claims, regardless of merit, would require us to devote resources and attention that could have been directed to our operations and growth plans. In addition, these actions may subject us to potential liability
for damages. We or our collaborative partners may not prevail in a patent action and any license required under a patent may not be made available on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. Any conflicts resulting from the patent rights of others
could significantly reduce the coverage of our patents and limit our ability to obtain meaningful patent protection.

If other companies
obtain patents with conflicting claims, we may be required to obtain licenses to those patents or develop or obtain alternative technology to manufacture or market the affected products and processes. We may not be able to obtain any such licenses
on acceptable terms or at all. Any failure to obtain such licenses could delay or prevent us from pursuing the development or commercialization of our potential products. Our efforts to defend against any of these claims would require us to devote
resources and attention that could have been directed to our operations and growth plans.

We may need to initiate litigation, which could
be time-consuming and expensive, to enforce our proprietary rights or to determine the scope and validity of others rights. If litigation results, a court may find our patents or those of our licensors invalid or may find that we have
infringed on a competitors rights. If any of our competitors have filed patent applications in the United States which claim technology we also have invented, the Patent and Trademark Office may require us to participate in expensive
interference proceedings to determine who has the right to a patent for the technology. These actions may subject us to potential liability for damages. We or our collaborative partners may not prevail in a patent action and any license required
under a patent may not be made available on commercially acceptable terms, or at all.

We may not be able to successfully develop or commercialize our
products. We may consider strategic alliances with other companies in efforts to broaden our product development pipeline.

While we
have limited sales of thymalfasin in certain markets, we do not yet have regulatory approval for thymalfasin for the key markets of the United States, Europe and Japan and, in this respect, thymalfasin is still being developed. In 2006 we acquired
the rights to distribute the DC Bead in China, but we must receive regulatory approval before we can commercialize this product. Our only other potential products presently are SCV-07 and RP101, and each of them is in an earlier stage of development
than thymalfasin. We may consider and undertake various strategies to expand our portfolio of potential products, including acquiring product candidate rights through licenses or other relationships, or through other strategic relationships
including acquisitions of other companies that may have proprietary rights to other development candidates or the capability to discover new drug candidates. Such transactions could require a substantial amount of our financial resources, or, if
equity is involved, may result in substantial dilution to current stockholders. Strategic transactions also require substantial management time and effort and are subject to various risks that could adversely affect us or our financial results.

To fully develop our products, we will need to commit substantial resources to extensive research, development, pre-clinical testing,
clinical trials, manufacturing scale-up and regulatory approval prior to the potential products being ready for sale. We cannot assure that our efforts will produce commercially viable products. We face significant technological risks inherent in
developing these products. We may also abandon some or all of our proposed products before they become commercially viable. For the DC Bead, we are obligated to pay half of the costs in our efforts to obtain regulatory approval in China. For RP101,
we are obligated to make a $1,320,000 milestone payment upon dosage of the first patient in a phase 2 clinical trial, which event occurred in the first quarter of 2008, and to make additional milestone payments if a phase 3 trial is successful. If
any of our products, even if developed and approved, cannot be successfully commercialized in a timely manner, our business will be harmed and the price of our stock may decline.

We have not yet sold any product other than thymalfasin and our sales have been primarily in a single
country, China. Our future revenue growth depends to a great extent on increased market acceptance and commercialization of thymalfasin in additional countries, particularly in the United States, Europe and Japan. If we fail to successfully market
thymalfasin, or if we cannot commercialize this drug in the United States and other additional markets, our revenue and operating results will be limited. If unexpected and serious adverse events are reported, or if expected efficacy results are not
achieved, it would have a material adverse effect on our business. Our future revenue will also depend in part on our ability to develop other commercially viable and accepted products, such as the DC Bead and RP101. Market acceptance of our
products will depend on many factors, including our ability to convince prospective customers to use our products as an alternative to other treatments and therapies and to convince prospective strategic partners to market our products effectively
and to manufacture our products in sufficient quantities with acceptable quality and at an acceptable cost. In addition, doctors must opt to use treatments involving our products. If doctors elect to use a different course of treatment, demand for
our drug products would be reduced. Failure to do any of the above will lead to an unfavorable outcome on the results of our operations.

We have a
history of operating losses and an accumulated deficit. We expect to incur losses in the near term and may not be profitable in the future.

We reported net loss of $9,948,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. In addition, we have experienced significant operating losses in the past, and as of December 31, 2007, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $169
million. We expect our operating expenses to increase over the next several years as we plan to dedicate substantially all of our resources to expanding our development, testing and marketing capabilities, and these losses may increase if we cannot
increase or sustain revenue. As a result, we may not achieve profitability in the future.

We have limited sales, marketing and distribution
capabilities outside of China, which may adversely affect our ability to successfully commercialize our products.

Outside of our
current principal market of China, we have limited sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, and we anticipate that we may be relying on third-party collaborators to sell, market and distribute our products for the foreseeable future
particularly in the major pharmaceutical markets of the United States, Europe and Japan should we receive regulatory approval to market our products in those territories. If our arrangements with these third parties are not successful, or if we are
unable to enter into additional third-party arrangements, we may need to substantially expand our sales, marketing and distribution force. Our efforts to expand may not succeed, or we may lack sufficient resources to expand in a timely manner,
either of which will harm our future operating results. Moreover, if we are able to further expand our sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we will begin competing with other companies that have experienced and well-funded operations. If
we cannot successfully compete with these larger companies, our revenues may not grow and our business may suffer.

We may be subject to product
liability lawsuits, and our insurance may be inadequate to cover damages.

Clinical trials or marketing of any of our current and
potential products may expose us to liability claims from the use of these products. We currently carry product liability insurance. However, we cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain insurance on acceptable terms, if at all, for
clinical and commercial activities or that the insurance would be sufficient to cover any potential product liability claim or recall. If we fail to have sufficient coverage, our business, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely
affected.

We depend on international sales, and global conditions could negatively affect our operating results.

A large majority of our sales are in China. Heightened tensions resulting from the current geopolitical conditions in the Middle East, North Korea and
elsewhere could worsen, causing disruptions in foreign trade,

which would harm our sales. In particular, our commercial product is manufactured in Europe and distributed by us from our operations in Hong Kong. Any
disruption of our supply and distribution activities due to geopolitical conditions could decrease our sales and harm our operating results.

Any
reoccurrence of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) or the outbreak of a different contagious disease such as the Avian Flu may adversely impact our operations and some of our key customers.

The 2003 SARS outbreak was most notable in China and a small number of cases were reported in 2004. There was no significant impact to our ability to
fill customer orders. However, if there were to be another outbreak of SARS or a different contagious disease, such as Avian Flu, and if our employees contracted the disease or were restricted from performing routine sales activities, our business
could be materially harmed. Finally, if one of our key customers is required to close for an extended period, we might not be able to ship product to them, our revenue would decline and our financial performance would suffer.

If we are unable to comply with environmental and other laws and regulations, our business may be harmed.

We are subject to various federal, state and local laws, regulations and recommendations relating to the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal
of hazardous materials and waste products (including radioactive compounds and infectious disease agents), as well as safe working conditions, laboratory and manufacturing practices and the experimental use of animals. The extent of government
regulation that might result from future legislation or administrative action in these areas cannot be accurately predicted.

We do not
currently maintain hazardous materials at our facilities. While we outsource our research and development programs involving the controlled use of biohazardous materials, if in the future we conduct these programs ourselves, we might be required to
incur significant cost to comply with environmental laws and regulations. Further, in the event of an accident, we would be liable for any damages that result, and the liability could exceed our resources.

We may lose market share or otherwise fail to compete effectively in the intensely competitive biopharmaceutical industry.

Competition in the biopharmaceutical industry is intense, and we expect that competition will increase. Our success depends on our ability to compete in
this industry, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete with our competitors. Increased competitive pressure could lead to intensified price-based competition resulting in lower prices and margins, which would hurt our
operating results. We cannot assure you that we will compete successfully against our competitors or that our competitors, or potential competitors, will not develop drugs or other treatments for our targeted indications that will be superior to
ours.

Our stock price may be volatile, and an investment in our stock could suffer a decline in value.

The market price of our common stock has experienced, and may continue to experience, substantial volatility due to many factors, some of which we have
no control over, including:

In the past, following periods of large price declines in the public market price of a companys securities, securities class action litigation has
often been initiated against that company. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of our attention and resources, which would hurt our business. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject us to
significant liabilities.

Substantial sales of our stock or equity in our subsidiaries or the exercise or conversion of options or convertible
securities may impact the market price of our common stock.

Our collaborative partner Sigma-Tau and affiliates hold a substantial
amount of our stock. The stock is freely tradeable and Sigma-Tau is not under any obligation to SciClone which would prevent it from selling some or all of the stock it holds except for applicable U.S. insider trading regulations with respect to
possession of material non-public information by Sigma-Tau or its officers and directors.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our
common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Similarly, if we raise additional funds through the issuance of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock or sell equity in a subsidiary, the
percentage ownership of our present stockholders of the respective entities will be reduced and the price of our common stock may fall.

Sales of our
common stock by officers and directors could affect our stock price.

Our board of directors has approved an amendment to our trading
policy that permits officers and directors to enter into trading plans that comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Rule 10b5-1 allows corporate officers and directors to adopt written,
pre-arranged stock trading plans when they do not have material, non-public information. Using these plans, officers and directors can gradually diversify their investment portfolios, can spread stock trades out over an extended period of time to
reduce any market impact and can avoid concerns about initiating stock transactions at a time when they might be in possession of material, non-public information. As of December 31, 2007, no director or officer has such a plan however an
officer or director may do so in the future. We expect future sales by officers and directors either under 10b5-1 plans or otherwise as a result of their personal financial planning. We do not believe the volume of such sales would affect our
trading price; however, the market could react negatively to sales by our officers and directors, which could affect the trading price of our stock.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law may make an acquisition of us, which may be
beneficial to our stockholders, more difficult.

Certain anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and our charter documents as
currently in effect may make a change in control of our company more difficult, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders. Our charter documents contain certain anti-takeover provisions, including provisions in our
certificate of incorporation providing that stockholders may not cumulate votes, stockholders meetings may be called by stockholders only if they hold 25% or more of our common stock and provisions in our bylaws providing that the stockholders
may not take action by written consent. Additionally, our board of directors has the authority to issue 10 million shares of preferred stock and to determine the terms of those shares of stock without any further action by the stockholders. The
rights of holders of our common stock are subject to the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued. The issuance of preferred stock could make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting
stock. Delaware law also prohibits corporations from engaging in a business combination with any holders of 15% or more of their capital stock until the holder has held the stock for three years unless, among other possibilities, the board of
directors approves the transaction. Our board of directors may use these provisions to prevent changes in the management and control of our company. Also, on December 18, 2006, our Board of Directors declared a dividend distribution of one
Preferred Stock Purchase Right (collectively, the Rights) for each outstanding share of our Common Stock, each Right which entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Companys
Series D Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value, at a price of $25.00 pursuant to a Rights Agreement dated as of December 19, 2006, between the Company and Mellon Investor Services LLC. The Rights have certain anti-takeover effects. Under certain
circumstances the Rights could cause substantial dilution to a person or group who attempts to acquire the Company on terms not approved by our Board of Directors. Although the Rights should not interfere with an acquisition of the Company approved
by the Board, the Rights may have the effect of delaying and perhaps improving the terms of an acquisition for our stockholders, or deterring an acquisition of the Company. Also, under applicable Delaware law, our board of directors may adopt
additional anti-takeover measures in the future.

Our short term investments are subject to certain risks which could materially adversely affect our
overall financial position

We invest our cash in accordance with an established internal policy and customarily in instruments
which historically have been highly liquid and carried relatively low risk. However, with recent turmoil in the credit markets, similar types of investments have experienced losses in value or liquidity issues which differ from their historical
pattern. For example, we routinely have invested in money market funds with large financial institutions. One or more of these funds could experience losses or liquidity problems and, although to date some of the largest financial
institutions who sponsor such funds have offset similar losses, there is no assurance that our financial institutions would either not incur losses or would offset any losses were they to occur. Further, we hold auction-rate securities (ARS)
which are collateralized by student loans with most of such collateral in the aggregate being guaranteed by the U.S. government. These ARS are intended to provide liquidity via an auction process that resets the applicable
interest rate at predetermined calendar intervals, usually every month. In February and March 2008, all of our auction-rate security investments experienced failed auctions for a total of $1,800,000, and as a result, our ability to
liquidate our investments and fully recover the carrying value of our investments in the near term may be limited or not exist. An auction failure means that the parties wishing to sell securities could not. When an auction fails, the interest
rate on such securities resets to a default rate which is usually higher and would require payment by the issuer, affecting its creditworthiness and therefore potentially its ability to redeem such obligations and therefore avoid the
higher interest payments. Although we believe we will be able to liquidate our investments without significant loss within the next year and we further believe these securities are not significantly impaired, primarily due to the government
guarantee underlying the securities, it could take until the final maturity of the underlying notes to realize our investments recorded value. The final maturities of these securities range from 22 to 34 years. We have not written down any of
our investments as of December 31, 2007, nor have we reclassified any or our holdings to long-term. Should any of our short term cash



35

##### Table of Contents

investments lose value or have their liquidity impaired, it would materially and adversely affect our overall financial position by imperiling our
ability to fund our operations and forcing us to seek additional financing sooner than we would otherwise and such financing may not be available on commercially attractive terms.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial
reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to
provide reliable financial reports and to protect from fraudulent, illegal or unauthorized transactions. If we cannot provide effective controls and reliable financial reports, our business and operating results could be harmed. Moreover, as a
United States-based corporation doing business in China, these controls often need to satisfy the requirements of Chinese law as well as the requirements of United States law which frequently differ in certain aspects. We have in the past
discovered, and may in the future discover, areas of our internal controls that need improvement. Any failure to implement and maintain controls over our financial reporting, or difficulties encountered in the implementation of improvements in our
controls, could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Any failure to improve our internal controls or to address identified weaknesses in the future, if they were to occur, could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported
financial information, which could have a negative impact on the trading price of our stock.

New accounting pronouncements may impact our financial
position or results of operations.

Future changes in financial accounting standards may cause adverse, unexpected fluctuations in the
timing of the recognition of revenues or expenses and may affect our financial position or results of operations. New pronouncements and varying interpretations of pronouncements have occurred with frequency and may occur in the future and this may
lead to changes in our accounting policies in the future. One such new pronouncement issued in December 2004 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS
123R). FAS 123R requires share-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of stock options, to be recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values. We adopted FAS 123R on January 1, 2006. Accordingly, the
adoption of FAS 123R had a significant impact on our results of operations, although it has no impact on our cash or overall financial position. For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, we recognized $2,243,000 and $2,446,000,
respectively, of stock-based compensation expense in accordance with FAS 123R.

New legislation may impact our financial position or results of
operations.

Compliance with changing regulations concerning corporate governance and public disclosure has resulted in and may
continue to result in additional expenses. Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new SEC regulations and The NASDAQ Stock Market rules, are creating
uncertainty for companies such as ours and costs are increasing as a result of this uncertainty and other factors. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. As a result, we intend to invest all
reasonably necessary resources to comply with evolving standards, and this investment has and may continue to result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities
to compliance activities.

We may be subject to currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could adversely affect our financial performance.

Substantially all of our product sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. Fluctuation in the U.S. dollar exchange rate with local
currency directly affects the customers cost for our product. In particular, a stronger U.S. dollar vis-à-vis the local currency would tend to have an adverse effect on sales and potentially on collection

of accounts receivable. In July 2005, China shifted its currency policy by establishing a 2% revaluation of the renminbi and referenced the renminbi to
a basket of currencies, with a daily trading band of +/-0.3%. Depending on market conditions and the state of the Chinese economy, it is possible that China will make further adjustments, including moving to a managed float system, with
opportunistic interventions. This reserve diversification may negatively impact the United States dollar and U.S. interest rates. A trend to a stronger U.S. dollar would erode margins earned by our Chinese importers and prompt them to ask us to
lower our prices. We are subject to currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of expenses incurred by our foreign operations. In particular, one of our supply arrangements under which we purchase finished products is denominated in euros and
costs of our operations in China are paid in local currency. Consequently, changes in exchange rates could unpredictably and adversely affect our operating results and could result in exchange losses. To date, we have not hedged against the risks
associated with fluctuations in exchange rates and, therefore, exchange rate fluctuations could have a material adverse impact on our future operating results and stock price.

Our business and operations are especially subject to the risks of earthquakes and other natural catastrophic disasters.

Our corporate headquarters are located in the Silicon Valley area of Northern California, a region known for seismic activity. Although we maintain a disaster recovery policy that includes storage of important
corporate data in a different geographic region of the United States, all of our significant corporate data is stored in our headquarters facility and accordingly, a significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, could have a material adverse
impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

parts of this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. See Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview

SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat life-threatening diseases. Our strategy is to in-license products in the
areas of cancer and viral infectious diseases, and to develop them for commercialization in the major pharmaceutical markets with a particular focus on China, one of the worlds fastest growing pharmaceutical markets. ZADAXIN®, our brand of thymalfasin, is one of the largest imported drugs, as measured by revenue, in China today, and currently is in late-stage clinical development for the treatment of malignant
melanoma and hepatitis C virus (HCV). Our proprietary in-licensed compound SCV-07 entered phase 2 clinical development for viral infectious disease in June 2007. We also submitted a regulatory application to the Chinese State Food and Drug
Administration (SFDA) in December 2006 related to DC Bead, a product for the treatment of liver cancer, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), for which we obtained Chinese marketing rights in June 2006.

On April 26, 2007, we announced that we had acquired the exclusive rights in the United States and Canada to develop and commercialize RP101, a
clinical-stage compound for the treatment of cancer. Under the terms of the agreements with Resistys, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Avantogen Oncology, Inc., and with RESprotect GmbH, we paid approximately $1,700,000 in upfront fees, and in the
first quarter of 2008 a $1,320,000 milestone payment upon dosage of the first patient in a phase 2 clinical trial. In addition, we may be obligated to pay post phase 3 success-based regulatory and commercial payments up to $22,000,000, and royalties
on future sales. We intend to initially develop RP101 for the treatment of pancreatic cancer in a combination therapy with gemcitabine, the standard of care for pancreatic cancer therapy.

In addition to our current product portfolio, we believe we are well-positioned to in-license additional therapeutics for both China and the
significantly larger U.S. and European markets, in part because of our opportunity to develop and commercialize such products in China. Also, we intend to use our clinical work in China to support and accelerate regulatory applications in the United
States and Europe.

Our European partner, Sigma-Tau, is conducting a triple therapy combination (ZADAXIN plus pegylated interferon alpha
and ribavirin) hepatitis C clinical trial in Europe. In a press release dated February 11, 2008, we reported promising interim blinded results indicating thymalfasin may increase sustained viral response (SVR) rates for HCV non-responder
patients. We expect the results of the trial in the third quarter of 2008.

In June 2007, we reported positive survival data from a phase 2
trial, also conducted by Sigma-Tau, treating patients with stage IV malignant melanoma indicating that thymalfasin in combination with dacarbazine (DTIC) chemotherapy tripled the overall response rate and extended overall survival by nearly 3 months
compared to malignant melanoma patients treated with DTIC, the current standard of care, and interferon alpha. In collaboration with Sigma-Tau, in October 2007, we shared the melanoma clinical data with and received approval from, the United States
Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to initiate phase 3 registration trials. We and Sigma-Tau are planning the design of a phase 3 melanoma trial and our regulatory strategy including a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) to be filed with the
FDA. Thymalfasin phase 3 clinical development and commercialization plans for HCV and melanoma have potentially significantly different timelines, costs, and sizes of prospective addressable markets, and the markets for these two products differ in
terms of competitive products and other factors. Consequently, before proceeding with a further melanoma trial,

##### Table of Contents

we and Sigma-Tau will review the final results for the current HCV clinical trial anticipated in the third quarter of 2008 in order to determine the next
steps for an optimal thymalfasin development program for the HCV and malignant melanoma indications.

We manufacture ZADAXIN for sale and
for our clinical trials, through third party contract manufacturers, and we conduct our research and development efforts principally through arrangements with clinical research sites, contract research organizations and universities.

As of December 31, 2007, we have an accumulated deficit of approximately $169,000,000. At least over the next few years, we expect net losses due to
increased operating expenses as we expand our research and development and clinical testing efforts and our sales and marketing capabilities. Our ability to achieve and sustain operating profitability is dependent on expansion of sales of ZADAXIN
and securing regulatory approval for DC Bead in China, the execution and successful completion of ZADAXIN, SCV-07, and RP101 clinical trials and securing regulatory approvals for these products in the major pharmaceutical markets of the United
States, Europe and Japan. If regulatory approval is secured in those territories, our ability to achieve and sustain operating profitability will depend on the successful commercialization and marketing of these products. Clinical development
involves numerous risks and uncertainties and, in addition to our successes, we have experienced setbacks in clinical development in the past. In particular, in December 2005 and June 2006, we reported results from our two U.S. phase 3 trials
evaluating the double therapy combination of ZADAXIN and pegylated interferon alpha to treat HCV patients who had failed previous therapy. The results from these trials did not demonstrate that ZADAXIN in combination with pegylated interferon alpha
provides a statistically significant clinical benefit when compared with pegylated interferon alpha alone. In addition, other factors may also impact our ability to achieve and sustain operating profitability, including the pricing of ZADAXIN and
its manufacturing and marketing costs, our ability to compete in pharmaceutical markets, the cost of product development and commercialization programs including SCV-07, DC Bead, and RP101, the timing and costs of acquiring rights to additional
drugs, our ability to fund our operations and the entrance into and extension of agreements for product development and commercialization, where appropriate.

We expect net sales to increase in 2008 due to increased sales to China. Primarily due to the level of research and development activities and other operations, we expect a net loss and a reduction in cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments for 2008. We believe we will need to raise additional capital in 2008 to fund our operations, including anticipated clinical trials, beyond the first quarter of 2009. We are exploring various alternatives for
financing in addition to sales of equity of SciClone, including a line of credit, debt financing and financing of our Chinese operations either through debt, equity or joint venture transactions, but we have not determined the timing or structure of
any transaction.

Our operating results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and these fluctuations may be substantial as a result of,
among other factors, the number, timing, costs and results of pre-clinical and clinical trials of our products, market acceptance of ZADAXIN, and potentially of SCV-07, DC Bead, and RP101, and the timing of orders for ZADAXIN from international
markets, particularly China, the regulatory approval process, the timing of FDA or international regulatory approvals, and the acquisition of additional product rights and the funding, if any, provided as a result of corporate partnering
arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our
results of operations. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations where such
policies affect our reported and expected financial results. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1 in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of
this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our consolidated financial statements have



41

##### Table of Contents

been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Sates, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, we
evaluate the relevance of our estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other market specific assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from
product sales at the time of delivery. There are no significant customer acceptance requirements or post-shipment obligations on our part. Sales to importing agents or distributors are recognized at time of shipment when title to the product is
transferred to them. Importing agents or distributors do not have contractual rights of return except under limited terms regarding product quality. However, we intend to replace products that have expired or are deemed to be damaged or defective
when delivered. We exercise judgment in estimating return reserves and estimate expected returns primarily on historical patterns. Historically, we have had no product returns of damaged, defective or expired product. As such, no amount was accrued
for product returns as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 in the respective consolidated balance sheets. Payments by the importing agents and distributors are not contingent upon sale to the end user by the importing agents or distributors.

Contract revenue for research and development is recorded as earned based on the performance requirements of the contract. Nonrefundable
contract fees for which no further performance obligations exist, and for which there is no continuing involvement by us, are recognized on the earlier of when the payments are received or when collection is assured.

Revenue associated with substantive performance milestones is recognized based on the achievement of the milestones, as defined in the respective
agreements and provided that (i) the milestone event is substantive and its achievement is not reasonably assured at the inception of the agreement and (ii) there are no future performance obligations associated with the milestone payment.

Amounts invoiced relating to arrangements where revenue cannot be recognized are reflected on our balance sheet as deferred revenue and
recognized as the applicable revenue recognition criteria are satisfied.

Accounts Receivable

We are required to estimate the collectibility of our trade receivables. We maintain reserves for credit losses, and such losses have been within our
expectations. We recognize reserves for bad debts ranging from 25% to 100% of past due accounts receivable based on the length of time the receivables are past due and our collectibility experience. A considerable amount of judgment is required in
assessing the ultimate realization of these receivables including, but not limited to, an analysis of the historical payment patterns of our customers, the circumstances of each individual customer and their geographic region including a review of
the local economic environment. Our ability to collect outstanding receivables from our customers is critical to our operating performance and cash flows. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability
of our customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers or the economic environment in which they operate were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be
required which would increase our general and administrative expenses. Conversely, if actual credit losses are significantly less than expected, this would decrease our general and administrative expenses.

##### Table of Contents

Inventories

Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or realizable market value. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, we are required to make judgments as to future demand requirements and compare that
with the current inventory levels. If our current assumptions about future production or inventory levels and demand were to change or if actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, inventory write-downs may be
required which could negatively impact our gross margins and results of operations.

Impairment of Intangible Assets

At December 31, 2007, we had net intangible assets of $332,000 related to ZADAXIN product rights and have not recorded any impairment losses to-date
related to intangible assets. In assessing the recoverability of our intangible assets we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be
required to record impairment charges for these assets.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses are principally incurred for our clinical trials including cost sharing of Sigma-Taus clinical trial in Europe
using ZADAXIN as part of a novel triple therapy combination for the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV), our phase 2 clinical trials for RP101 and SCV-07 in 2007, our development plans in 2007 for a phase 3 clinical trial for malignant melanoma,
and our phase 3 clinical trials that took place in the United States, primarily in 2005 and 2004. Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Our cost accruals for clinical trials are based on estimates of the services
received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with numerous institutions that conduct the clinical trials on our behalf. The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation and vary from contract to contract and may result in
uneven payment flows. Payments under the contracts depend on factors such as the achievement of certain events, the successful enrollment of patients, and the completion of portions of the clinical trial or similar conditions. The objective of our
accrual policy is to match the recording of expenses in our financial statements to the actual services received and efforts expended. Expenses related to grants to the institutions for our U.S. HCV and SCV-07 clinical trials were accrued based on
the level of patient enrollment and activity according to the protocol. In general, for these clinical trials, these expenses are higher for the initial and final months of a patients scheduled treatment and observation. Expenses relating to
clinical research organizations or other entities managing the trials and laboratory and other direct expenses are recognized in the period they are estimated to be incurred and the services performed. We monitor active patient enrollment levels and
related activity to the extent possible and adjust our estimates accordingly; however, if management has underestimated activity levels associated with various studies at a given point in time, we could underestimate our actual research and
development expenses, requiring the recording of additional expenses and an increase in net loss in the future.

Stock Option Valuation

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, (FAS 123R). Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for share-based payments under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
25 (APB 25) and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (FAS 123). Accordingly, we did not recognize compensation expense in accounting for our employee
stock purchase plan or our stock option plans for options to employees and directors granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.



43

##### Table of Contents

We adopted FAS 123R using the modified-prospective transition method. Under this method, compensation
cost recognized for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 includes compensation cost for share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with
the provisions of FAS 123. Compensation cost also includes all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123R. Compensation cost is
calculated on the date of grant using the fair value of the option as determined using the Black Scholes option valuation model and the single option approach. The Company amortizes the compensation cost over the vesting period, which is generally
four years, using the straight line attribution method. Results for prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact of FAS 123R.

Determining the fair value of each option award under FAS 123R using the Black Scholes option valuation model requires the use of certain subjective assumptions. We determined weighted-average valuation assumptions as follows:

VolatilityWe believe the historical volatility of our stock price is indicative of expectations about expected future stock price volatility. We
estimated volatility using the historical share price performance for a time period equivalent to the expected term of the option. We also considered the implied volatility of market traded puts and calls on our common stock, however, since these
puts and calls are thinly traded, the information was not considered representative of their future estimated volatility.

Expected
termWhen establishing an estimate of the expected term of an award, we consider the vesting period for the option and our historical experience of employee stock option exercises (including forfeitures).

Risk-Free Interest rateThe risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates with similar terms to the expected term of
the option.

Dividend YieldThe expected dividend yield is 0% as we have not paid and do not expect to pay dividends in the
foreseeable future.

Expected ForfeituresWe use historical data regarding forfeitures of our options to estimate pre-vesting option
forfeitures. We record stock-based compensation only for those awards that are expected to vest.

The most significant assumptions are our
estimates of the expected volatility and the expected term of the award. In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the amount of share-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. If actual conditions, events or amounts differ
significantly from any of these estimates, stock-based compensation expense and its non-cash effect on our results of operations could be materially impacted. As of December 31, 2007, unamortized compensation expense related to unvested options
was approximately $3,251,000. The weighted average period over which compensation expense related to these options will be recognized is 3.40 years.

Results of Operations

Product sales were $37,038,000, $32,433,000, and $27,842,000 for the years ended
December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and all were derived from sales of ZADAXIN. Sales to customers in China accounted for approximately 92%, 92% and 91% of this revenue for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. Product prices have remained stable throughout this three year period.

For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and
2005, sales in each year to three or four importing agents in China accounted for approximately 92%, 92%, and 91%, respectively of our product sales. In 2007, Shanghai Lingyun and China National Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation accounted for
63% and 21% of our sales, respectively, and one other importer accounted for 8% of our sales. In 2006, Shanghai Lingyun and China National Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation accounted for 66% and 15% of our sales, respectively, and



44

##### Table of Contents

two others accounted for a combined 11%. In 2005, Guang Dong South Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Co., Ltd, Zhuhai Golden Medicine Co., Ltd and China National
Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation accounted for 57%, 19%, and 15% of our sales, respectively. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of sales in those periods. As of December 31, 2007, approximately $11,941,000 or, 94% of our
accounts receivable were attributable to two customers in China. We perform on-going credit evaluations of our customers financial condition, and generally do not require collateral from our customers.

Contract revenue was $20,000, $229,000, and $492,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. During 2007, we recognized
$20,000 in contract revenue for a partial license fee for ZADAXIN from a third party. There was no similar revenue for the years ended December 31, 2006 or 2005. Contract revenue recognized in 2006 and 2005 is in connection with the $2,685,000
payment we received from Sigma-Tau in January 2002 and a $50,000 payment we received from Sigma-Tau in December 2006. This revenue was recognized as contract revenue over the course of the ZADAXIN HCV U.S. clinical program and the period of sharing
the clinical data from this program with Sigma-Tau in accordance with the performance requirements under our contract with Sigma-Tau.

Gross margin was 82%, 79%, and 83% in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in gross margin in 2006 was primarily due to an increase of $929,000 in royalty expense recorded in December 2006 related to annual minimum royalties due
to sales of product from 1997 through 2006 according to our license agreement with Wayne State University (WSU). We expect cost of product sales and hence gross margin to vary from year to year, depending upon the level of ZADAXIN sales, the
absorption of product-related fixed costs, and any charges associated with excess or expiring finished product inventory.

Research and
development (R&D) expenses were $17,446,000, $14,088,000, and $14,406,000 and represented approximately 42%, 41%, and 45% of our total operating costs and expenses for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. The
increase in R&D expenses from 2006 to 2007 was primarily due to a $2,200,000 increase in acquisition and legal costs incurred in April 2007 related to the acquisition of the exclusive rights in the United States and Canada to develop and
commercialize RP101, an increase of approximately $1,893,000 in clinical trial expenses and an increase of $1,131,000 in drug development expenses mainly related to our phase 2 trials for RP101 and SCV-07, and in preparation of the prospective phase
3 trial for melanoma. These increases were offset partially by decreases in R&D including a decrease of $531,000 in stock-based compensation expense and a $377,000 decrease in compensation and benefits related expenses, net of consulting fees, a
decrease of $597,000 in preclinical pharmacology expenses, a decrease of $146,000 in rent expense due to lower rents at our new corporate office, and a decrease of $106,000 in computer software expense.

R&D expenses in 2006 included stock-based compensation expense of $771,000 following the adoption of FAS 123R. The overall decrease in R&D
expenses from 2005 to 2006 was primarily related to the U.S. phase 3 HCV clinical trials completed in mid-2006.

The major components of
R&D expenses consist of clinical studies performed by clinical trial institutions and contract research organizations, related materials and supplies, preclinical work, pharmaceutical development, personnel costs, including salaries and
benefits, third party research funding, and overhead allocations consisting of various support and facilities related costs. Our research and development activities are also separated into three main categories: research, clinical development and
pharmaceutical development. Research costs typically consist of business development, patent costs, preclinical and toxicology work. Clinical development costs primarily relate to clinical trials. Pharmaceutical development costs consist of product
formulation and chemical analysis. During 2007, we recorded approximately $5,320,000 of research, $10,723,000 of clinical development, and $1,403,000 of pharmaceutical development activities. During 2006, we recorded approximately $5,400,000 of
research, $6,900,000 of clinical development, and $1,800,000 of pharmaceutical development activities. This compares to expenses in 2005 of approximately $4,300,000 of research, $8,300,000 of clinical development, and $1,800,000 of
pharmaceutical development activities.

##### Table of Contents

The initiation and continuation of our current clinical development programs has had and is expected to
continue to have a significant effect on our research and development expenses. Although it is not possible to determine the total cost expected to be incurred in any particular year for each clinical trial due to the uncertain nature of the
clinical trial process, we estimate that our future costs for 2008 relating to research and development will be approximately $27,400,000, including a $1,320,000 milestone payment upon dosage of the first patient in the RP101 phase 2 clinical trial,
other RP101, ZADAXIN, and SCV-07 development costs. The actual costs incurred in future periods will vary depending in particular upon timeline and design for a ZADAXIN phase 3 melanoma clinical trial and final decisions regarding the timing and
expense sharing arrangements for the trial. If we proceed with all of the current development programs for ZADAXIN, RP101 and SCV-07, we would need to seek additional capital in 2008. An expansion or significant extension of our clinical development
programs may require us to seek additional capital resources.

Sales and marketing expenses were $13,928,000, $11,569,000, and $10,237,000
for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in sales and marketing expenses in 2007 and 2006 was partially due to $772,000 and $639,000, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense following the
adoption of FAS 123R. The remaining increases in 2007 and 2006 were primarily due to increases in sales and marketing personnel, promotional activities and operating expense related to our expanding sales and marketing efforts. We expect sales and
marketing expenses for 2008 to be approximately $2,800,000 higher than those incurred in 2007 due to increased sales efforts.

General and
administrative expenses were $10,245,000, $9,040,000, and $7,457,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses in 2007 compared to 2006, was primarily related to an
increase in compensation and benefits related expenses of $713,000 due to an increase in general and administrative personnel, an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $196,000 mainly related to our chief executive officers
employment agreement, and a $150,000 increase in office expense related to the relocation of our corporate office. The increase in general and administrative expenses in 2006, compared to 2005, was primarily related to an increase in compensation
and benefits related expenses of $410,000, increased consulting fees of $656,000, and an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $564,000 following the adoption of FAS 123R. For 2008, we expect general and administrative expenses to decrease
approximately $700,000 compared to general and administrative expenses incurred for 2007 as a result of a reduction in consulting fees.

Interest and investment income was approximately $1,629,000, $1,764,000, and $1,273,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in 2007 resulted from reduced interest earned on cash balances due
to lower cash balances, partially offset by higher interest rates in the 2007 period. The increase in interest and investment income in 2006 is primarily due to cash balances earning higher interest rates in that period. For 2008, we expect a
decrease of approximately $900,000 in interest and investment income as a result of lower cash balances.

Interest and investment expense
was $20,000, $94,000, and $345,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and the interest expense for 2006 and 2005 primarily related to interest on the Companys convertible notes payable. The Company repaid
$4,000,000 and $1,600,000 of convertible notes in December 2005 and March 2006, respectively, resulting in the decrease in interest expense for those periods.

Other income (expense), net was $40,000, $7,981,000 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in other income for the 2006 period, as compared to both 2007 and 2005,
was primarily due to a one-time payment of $8,000,000 that we received in April 2006 for the resolution of our dispute with Schering Plough KK regarding the conduct of HBV clinical trials in Japan with ZADAXIN.

Provision for income tax of $301,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 related to our foreign operations in China. There was no similar provision
for income tax recorded for the years ended December 31, 2006 or 2005.

##### Table of Contents

Net (loss) income for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 was ($9,948,000), $727,000,
and ($7,713,000), respectively. The increase in net loss in 2007 was mainly due to the 2006 income effect of the one-time payment of $8,000,000 that we received in April 2006 for the resolution of our dispute regarding the conduct of HBV clinical
trials in Japan, increased clinical trial activities related to our phase 2 clinical trials for RP101 and SCV-07 in 2007, and our development plans for a phase 3 clinical trial for melanoma. The increase in net income in 2006, as compared to 2005,
was primarily due to the one-time payment of $8,000,000 as part of a settlement regarding clinical trials in Japan. Basic and diluted net (loss) income per share for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 was ($0.22), $0.02, and
($0.17), respectively. Weighted average shares outstanding used in computing basic net (loss) income per share for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 were 46,099,641, 45,901,015, and 45,328,714, respectively. Weighted average
shares outstanding used in computing diluted net (loss) income per share for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 were 46,099,641, 46,072,027, and 45,328,714, respectively.

Income Taxes

We have not recorded any federal
or state income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. Undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries amounted to approximately $9,328,000, $6,126,000, and $6,673,000 at December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. These earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested and accordingly, no deferred U.S. income taxes have been provided thereon.

At December 31, 2007, we had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $122,000,000 which expire in the years 2008 through 2027. The difference between the cumulative losses for financial
reporting purposes and federal income tax purposes is primarily attributable to losses incurred by our foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2007, we had federal tax credit carryforwards of approximately $8,000,000 which expire in the years
2009 through 2027.

Because of the change in ownership provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, a portion of our net operating
loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods. As a result of the annual limitation, a portion of these carryforwards may expire before
ultimately becoming available to reduce future income tax liabilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Days sales outstanding in accounts receivable, using the average receivables method, were 137, 138 and 139 days in 2007, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. The majority of our sales are to customers in the Peoples Republic of China, where our accounts receivable collections have standard credit terms of 180 days. During 2007, 2006, and 2005, such receivables were collected within
these terms. Days sales outstanding decreased from 2005 to 2007, due to normal fluctuations in the timing of customer payments received.

At December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, we had $35,281,000, $42,592,000, and $42,256,000, respectively, in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. In each of these years, the principal factors affecting these balances were the
net (loss) income and cash used in financing activities. We currently estimate cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2008 will be lower than the balance at December 31, 2007. The expected decrease in this
balance is primarily attributable to cash used in operations.

The short-term investments consist primarily of highly liquid marketable
securities. Our restricted short-term investment of $72,000 as of December 31, 2007, relates to a letter of credit secured by a certificate of deposit to facilitate our value added tax filings in Europe.

Due to the recent adverse developments in the credit markets, we may experience reduced liquidity with respect to some of our short-term, student loan
related, AAA rated, adjustable rate securities. These developments could result in the reclassification of such securities to long-term investments. As of December 31, 2007, we held

$2,825,000 in adjustable rate notes reflected as short-term investments. As of February 29, 2008, we had liquidated $1,025,000 of these notes and held
the remaining $1,800,000. In February and March 2008, our remaining $1,800,000 in auction-rate securities experienced a failed auction, and as a result, our ability to liquidate our investments and fully recover the carrying value of our
investments in the near term may be limited or not exist and we may be required to hold some, or all, of these securities until stability is restored with respect to these securities. We believe that, even allowing for the reclassification of these
securities to long term and the possible requirement to hold all such securities for an indefinite period of time, our remaining cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least
the next twelve months.

Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities totaled ($7,011,000), $1,682,000, and ($8,162,000) for the
years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities of $7,011,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007, was comprised primarily of net loss of $9,948,000 which was adjusted for non-cash items
such as stock-based compensation expense of $2,243,000 and depreciation and amortization of $248,000, and $350,000 of net cash inflow related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. Such changes included an increase in our clinical trials
expense of $1,431,000 and an increase in accounts payable and other accrued expenses of $1,852,000, both increases related primarily to our phase 2 RP101 and SCV-07 clinical trials, and to the development plans for a melanoma clinical trial. These
inflows were partially offset by an increase in inventory levels of $2,262,000 as our supplier of bulk active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) product for the manufacture of ZADAXIN was able to produce higher yields on production runs, enabling us to
increase our inventory levels, compared to the lower than expected inventory levels in the prior year period, and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $1,259,000 mainly related to our phase 2 RP101 clinical trial.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $1,682,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006 was primarily due to the net income of $727,000 which
was adjusted for non-cash expense related to employee stock options of $2,446,000 due to the adoption of FAS 123R and depreciation and amortization of $233,000, and $1,686,000 of net cash outflow related to changes in operating assets and
liabilities. Such changes included an increase in accounts receivable of $3,576,000 due to fluctuations in the timing of payments received within credit terms from customers and an increase in accounts payable and other accrued expenses of
$1,137,000 primarily related to an increase in the royalty accrual. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2005 was primarily due to the net loss of $7,713,000.

Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $12,994,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to cash used in investing
activities of $577,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006, and $6,363,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Net cash provided by investing activities in 2007 of $12,994,000 was primarily due to the sale of U.S. Treasury securities
and municipal securities holdings to fund operations, partially offset by $446,000 in purchases of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities in 2006 of $577,000 was primarily due to increased holdings in U.S. Treasury securities
of $4,369,000, offset partially by a decrease in municipal securities holdings of $3,850,000, and due to purchases of property and equipment of $75,000. Net cash used in investing activities in 2005 of $6,363,000 was primarily due to the purchase of
U.S. Treasury securities in the amount of $6,034,000 in 2005 and purchases of property and equipment of $119,000.

Net cash provided by
financing activities totaled $241,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1,335,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006, and $834,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Net
cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2007 consisted of proceeds received of approximately $241,000 related to exercises of outstanding options under our employee stock option plans. Net cash used in financing
activities for the year ended December 31, 2006 consisted of the repayment of a $1,600,000 convertible note, partially offset by proceeds received of approximately $221,000 related to exercises of outstanding options under our employee stock
option plans and $44,000 from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan. Net cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2005 consisted of the repayment of a $4,000,000 convertible note

In addition to the above commitments, SciClone, as a result of its acquisition of the exclusive rights in the
United States and Canada to develop and commercialize RP101, paid a $1,320,000 milestone payment upon dosage of the first patient in its phase 2 clinical trial in January 2008, and may be obligated to pay post phase 3 success-based regulatory and
commercial milestone payments up to $22,000,000 and royalties on future sales of RP101 to Avantogen and RESprotect. We also have assumed and amended the terms of a certain agreement for clinical trials management services, for a randomized, double
blind, placebo controlled, phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of RP101, previously entered into by and between Avantogen Oncology, Inc. and Pharmaceutical Research Associates, Inc. (PRA). The estimated cost of PRAs management
services and pass-through costs per the amended Agreement is $8,000,000 and $4,000,000 respectively, of which $2,184,000 had been paid by the Company to PRA and $52,000 was payable to PRA as of December 31, 2007. The remaining amounts are
expected to be paid to PRA as incurred, through 2009. We entered into a supply agreement with RESprotect to purchase RP101 from RESprotect for clinical trials and for commercial purposes following regulatory approval. Under the terms of the supply
agreement, SciClone and RESprotect will share the scale-up costs required to manufacture RP101 prior to and after FDA approval. Our share of the scale-up costs is estimated to be 1,448,000 through June 2010, of which 455,000 was paid by
us to RESprotect through December 31, 2007.

Our existing capital resources and funds from product sales are sufficient to finance our
operations through the first quarter of 2009, but are not sufficient to complete our current plans to conduct and complete clinical trials with RP101, SCV-07 and thymalfasin, and, if we proceed with all the development efforts we are planning, we
would need to raise additional financing. The unavailability or the inopportune timing of any financing could prevent or delay our long-term product development and commercialization programs, either of which would severely hurt our business. We
cannot assure you that funds from financings will be sufficient to complete our

##### Table of Contents

current plans to conduct and complete clinical trials. The need, timing and amount of any such financing would depend upon numerous factors, including the
level of ZADAXIN sales, the timing and amount of manufacturing costs related to ZADAXIN, the availability of complementary products, technologies and businesses, the initiation and continuation of preclinical and clinical trials and testing, the
timing of regulatory approvals, developments in relationships with existing or future collaborative parties, the status of competitive products, and the condition of the capital markets and the availability of financing for SciClone in particular.
We are exploring various alternatives for financing in addition to sales of equity of SciClone, including a line of credit, debt financing and financing of our Chinese operations either through debt, equity or joint venture transactions, but we have
not determined the timing or structure of any transaction.

Related Party Transactions

There are no officers or directors that were involved in related party transactions in 2007.

We have licensed to our largest shareholder, Sigma-Tau, exclusive ZADAXIN development and marketing rights to include all countries in the European Union
as of March 2000. We have also entered into an agreement with Sigma-Tau related to the clinical development of ZADAXIN and we received $2,685,000 in the first quarter of 2002 related to this agreement. This contract revenue was recognized over the
estimated time to complete the ZADAXIN U.S. phase 3 HCV clinical trials and deliver the clinical data, the substantive performance requirements under the contract. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, we recognized contract revenue
of $229,000 and $492,000, respectively, related to this agreement. No contract revenue was recognized in 2007 related to this agreement.

We have also entered into an agreement with Sigma-Tau, whereby Sigma-Tau is conducting a multi-center phase 3 hepatitis C triple therapy clinical trial in Europe with 553 patients. The objective of the European trial is to provide data on
thymalfasins use as part of a triple therapy in treating HCV patients. We are providing Sigma-Tau approximately $2,509,000 of funding support during the course of patient enrollment and trial period of which $2,009,000 has been paid through
December 31, 2007 and the remaining $500,000 will be paid upon completion of the trial. We will also pay a $1,500,000 milestone payment upon completion of the final report. Based on the level of activity in this trial, we have recorded
approximately $507,000, $1,750,000 and $1,203,000 of research and development expense related to this trial in the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, we had accrued clinical trial
expenses of $1,620,000 and $1,599,000, respectively, due to Sigma-Tau.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There were no off-balance sheet arrangements in 2007, 2006 or 2005.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 07-1, Accounting for Collaboration Arrangements Related to the Development and Commercialization of Intellectual Property (EITF 07-1), which focuses on how the parties to
a collaborative arrangement should account for costs incurred and revenue generated on sales to third parties, how sharing payments pursuant to a collaboration agreement should be presented in the income statement and certain related disclosure
questions. EITF 07-1 is effective for all fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. We do not expect any impact from the adoption of EITF 07-1 on our results of operations and financial position.

In July 2007, FASB released EITF No. 07-3 (EITF 07-3), Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to be
used in Future Research and Development Activities. In accordance with EITF 07-3, nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services to be received in the future for use in research and development activities should be deferred and
capitalized. The capitalized amounts should be expensed as

the related goods are delivered or the services are performed. EITF 07-3 is effective for new contracts entered into during fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2007, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently assessing the impact that EITF 07-3 will have on our results of operations and financial position.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS
No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, delays the effective date of SFAS
No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). We are currently
assessing the impact that SFAS No. 157 will have on our results of operations and financial position.

In February 2007, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but
does not affect existing standards which require assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported
earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Under SFAS No. 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure eligible items at specified election dates
and report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Eligible items include, but are not limited to, accounts and loans receivable, available-for-sale and
held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts payable, guarantees, issued debt and firm commitments. If elected, SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently assessing
whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of our eligible items and cannot estimate the impact, if any, on our results of operations and financial position.



|Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we invest in money market funds,
certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasury, or U.S. government agency notes and highly-rated, highly liquid short-term municipal securities which have an auction reset feature (auction rate securities). The short-term municipal securities
are classified as available for sale and consequently are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). All of our investments mature
within one year from date of purchase except for the auction rate securities whose ultimate maturities range from 22 to 34 years. Our holdings in short-term investments, of any one issue, do not exceed 2% of our cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments. Our investments in our investment securities are subject to interest rate risk. If interest rates rise, the market value of our investments may decline, which could result in a realized loss if we are forced to sell an investment before
its scheduled maturity. To minimize the exposure due to an adverse shift in interest rates, we invest in short-term notes and maintain an average maturity of less than one year. A hypothetical 60 basis point increase in interest rates would result
in an approximate $72,000 decrease (0.6%) in fair value of our available-for-sale securities. This potential change is based on sensitivity analyses performed on our financial position at December 31, 2007. Actual results may differ materially.
We do not hold any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risks.

In February and March 2008, we began observing the
failed auctions of auction rate securities whose underlying assets are comprised of student loans, and each of our six auction-rate securities experienced a failed auction for a combined $1,800,000. As of December 31, 2007, we held
approximately $2,825,000 of auction rate



51

##### Table of Contents

securities within our available-for-sale short-term investments classified as current assets whose underlying assets were comprised of student loans,
substantially backed by the federal government. Our auction rate securities comprised approximately 8% of our total cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2007. As of February 29, 2008, we held $1,800,000 of
auction rate securities whose underlying assets were comprised of student loans. If the auction rate securities in our investment portfolio continue to experience failed auctions, our ability to liquidate our investments and fully recover the
carrying value of our investments in the near term may be limited or not exist and we may be required to hold some, or all, of these securities until stability is restored with respect to these securities. An auction failure means that the parties
wishing to sell securities could not. Although, all of our auction rate securities are currently rated AAA, the highest rating, by a rating agency, if the issuers are unable to successfully close future auctions and their credit ratings deteriorate,
we may in the future be required to record an impairment charge on these investments. We believe we will be able to liquidate our investment without significant loss within the next year, and we currently believe these securities are not
significantly impaired, primarily due to the government guarantee of the underlying securities. However, it could take until the final maturity of the underlying notes to realize our investments recorded value which range from 22 to 34 years.
Based on our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate the potential lack of liquidity on these investments will affect our ability to execute our business plan in the next 12 months.

Substantially all our sales and most of our manufacturing costs to date have been in U.S. dollars. However, our purchases from one of our contract
manufacturers are denominated in euros and costs of our marketing efforts in China are paid in local currency. In addition, we have certain cash balances denominated in euros. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency rate fluctuations, and we
do not hedge against the risk associated with such fluctuations. Consequently, changes in exchange rates could unpredictably, materially and adversely affect our operating results and stock price and could result in exchange losses, although such
losses have been insignificant to date.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of SciClone
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of
December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. Our audits also included the financial
statement schedule listed at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material
respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, as of January 1, 2006,
SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. changed its method of accounting for stock-based compensation in accordance with guidance provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), SciClone Pharmaceuticals,
Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our
report dated March 13, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

or defective when delivered. The Company estimates expected returns primarily on historical patterns. Historically, the Company has had no product returns of damaged, defective or expired product. As such, no amount was accrued for product returns
as of December 31, 2007 or 2006 in the consolidated balance sheets. Payments by the importing agents and distributors are not contingent upon sale to the end user by the importing agents or distributors.

Contract revenue for research and development is recorded as earned based on the performance requirements of the contract. Nonrefundable contract fees
for which no further performance obligations exist, and there is no continuing involvement by the Company, are recognized on the earlier of when the payments are received or when collection is assured.

Revenue associated with substantive performance milestones is recognized based on the achievement of the milestones, as defined in the respective
agreements and provided that (i) the milestone event is substantive and its achievement is not reasonably assured at the inception of the agreement, and (ii) there are no future performance obligations associated with the milestone
payment.

Amounts invoiced relating to arrangements where revenue cannot be recognized are reflected on the
Companys balance sheet as deferred revenue and recognized as the applicable revenue recognition criteria are satisfied.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents and Investments

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with
maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase.

The Company classifies its investment portfolio as available-for-sale and
held-to-maturity. The Company records the available-for-sale investments at fair value, as determined by available market information, on the balance sheet. The portfolio primarily consists of certificates of deposit, short-term municipal securities
and corporate equity securities. Unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities are included in accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheet. Realized gains or losses and declines in value judged to be other
than temporary are determined on the basis of specific identification and included in interest and investment income. The Company also held investments classified as held-to-maturity investments at December 31, 2006 which were recorded at
amortized cost.

The Company performs an assessment each reporting period to determine whether any investment is impaired. Due to the
recent adverse development in the credit markets, the Company may experience reduced liquidity with respect to some of its short-term, student loan related, AAA rated, adjustable rate securities. These developments could result in the
reclassification of such securities to long-term investments. As of December 31, 2007, the Company held $2,825,000 in adjustable rate securities reflected as short-term investments. As of February 29, 2008, the Company held $1,800,000 in
adjustable rate securities and in February and March 2008, all of these auction-rate securities had experienced a failed auction. If the issuers are unable to successfully close future auctions and their credit ratings deteriorate, the Company
may in the future be required to record an impairment charge on these investments. The Company believes it will be able to liquidate its investments without significant loss within the next year, and it currently believes these securities are not
significantly impaired, primarily due to the government guarantee of the underlying securities. However, it could take until the final maturity of the underlying notes to realize the investments recorded value. The Company believes that, even
allowing for the reclassification of these securities to long term, and the possible requirement to hold all such securities for an indefinite period of time, that based on the Companys expected operating cash flows, and its other sources of
cash, it does not anticipate the potential lack of liquidity on these investments will affect its ability to execute its current business plan over the next 12 months.

Under its European value added tax filing arrangements, the Company has a letter of credit secured by a certificate of deposit for $72,000 in restricted short-term investments on the accompanying balance sheet as of
December 31, 2007.

For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, net change in unrealized gains of approximately
$22,000, $25,000, and $15,000, on available-for-sale securities, respectively, were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). In 2007, foreign currency translation losses of $18,000 were included in accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss). For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, there were no realized gains or losses.

##### Table of Contents

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Companys cash equivalents and available-for-sale marketable securities are based on quoted market prices and the carrying
amounts are equal to their respective fair values at December 31, 2007 and 2006. The amortized cost of the held-to-maturity securities approximated their fair value at December 31, 2006.

Other financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, are carried at cost, which the Company believes
approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Inventories

Inventories consist principally of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods products. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market,
with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company periodically reviews the inventory in order to identify obsolete items. If obsolete items are observed and there are no alternate uses for the inventory, the Company will record a
write-down to net realizable value in the period that the impairment is first recognized.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets
(three to five years) on the straight-line basis. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life or lease term on the straight-line basis.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated
useful lives and are reviewed for impairment when facts or circumstances suggest that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. The Companys policy is to identify and record impairment losses, if necessary, on intangible
product rights when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. The Company to date has not
identified any impairment losses on these assets. Although the Company has a history of operating losses and negative cash flow, the Company believes that there is no impairment to the intangible assets because ZADAXIN has been approved for sale in
several countries, principally as a treatment for hepatitis B virus. Based on the Companys anticipated financial results for future ZADAXIN sales, it has been determined that the expected future cash flows exceed the carrying amount of the
assets.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company translates the assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiaries stated in local functional currencies to U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the end of the period. Revenues and expenses are translated using
rates of exchange in effect during the period. Gains and losses from the translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the statement of
stockholders equity.

The Company records foreign currency transactions at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the
transaction with resultant gains and losses being included in results of operations. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses have not been significant for any period presented.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenditures are charged to
operations as incurred. Major components of research and development expenses consist of clinical development performed on the Companys behalf by

##### Table of Contents

institutions and contract research organizations, sharing of certain costs of Sigma-Taus clinical development of ZADAXIN, personnel costs, including
salaries and benefits, preclinical work, pharmaceutical development, materials and supplies, third party research funding and overhead allocations consisting of various administrative and facilities related costs. SciClones research and
development activities are also separated into three main categories: research, clinical development and pharmaceutical development. Research costs typically consist of business development, patent costs, preclinical and toxicology work. Clinical
development costs primarily relate to clinical trials. Pharmaceutical development costs consist of product formulation and chemical analysis.

ZADAXIN and RP101 clinical trials have the largest and most significant impact on the Companys research and development expenses. Cost accruals for clinical trials are based on estimates of the services received and efforts expended
pursuant to contracts with numerous institutions that conduct the clinical trials on the Companys behalf. The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation and vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment
flows. Payments under the contracts depend on factors such as the achievement of certain events, the successful enrollment of patients and the completion of portions of the clinical trial or similar conditions. The objective of the accrual policy is
to match the recording of expenses to the actual services received and efforts expended. Expenses related to grants to institutions that conduct the clinical trials on the Companys behalf are accrued based on the level of patient enrollment
and activity according to the protocol. In general, for the Companys U.S. HCV clinical trials, these expenses were higher for the initial and final months of a patients scheduled treatments and observation. Expenses relating to the
clinical research organization and other entities managing the trials and laboratory and other direct expenses are recognized in the period they are estimated to be incurred and the services performed. The Company monitors active patient enrollment
levels and related activity to the extent possible and adjusts estimates accordingly.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Costs related to shipping and handling are included in cost of sales for all periods presented.

Advertising Expenses

The Company expenses
advertising costs as incurred and these costs are included in sales and marketing expenses for all periods presented. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 were $403,000, $221,000, and $150,000, respectively.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are
accounted for under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax basis, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets may not be realized. Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance.

Net (Loss) Income Per Share

Basic net (loss)
income per share has been computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the
weighted-average number of common equivalent shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net (loss) income per share includes any dilutive impact from stock options outstanding using the treasury stock method.

7,080,186 shares, respectively, related to convertible notes payable and outstanding options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net (loss) income per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, (FAS 123R). Prior to
January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for share-based payments under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25) and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (FAS 123). Accordingly, the Company did not recognize compensation expense in accounting for its employee stock purchase plan or its stock option plans for options to employees and
directors granted with exercise prices at fair market value.

The Company adopted FAS 123R using the modified-prospective transition
method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized during the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 includes compensation cost for share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the
grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123. Compensation cost also includes all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the
provisions of FAS 123R. Compensation cost is calculated on the date of grant using the fair value of the option as determined using the Black Scholes option valuation model and the single option approach. The Company amortizes the compensation cost
over the vesting period, which is generally four years, using the straight line attribution method. Results for the year ended December 31, 2005 have not been restated to reflect the impact of FAS 123R.

In November 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 123R-3, Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of
Share-Based Payment Awards. The Company has adopted the simplified method to calculate the beginning balance of the additional paid-in-capital (or APIC) pool of excess tax benefit, and to determine the subsequent effect on the
APIC pool and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the tax effects of stock-based compensation awards that were outstanding upon the Companys adoption of FAS 123R.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 is based on
awards ultimately expected to vest. FAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company uses historical data to estimate
pre-vesting option forfeitures. In the Companys pro forma information required under FAS 123 for the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.

##### Table of Contents

The Company has not recognized, and does not expect to recognize in the near future, any tax benefit
related to employee stock-based compensation cost.

The Companys former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) was granted a
target stock price award (see note 14, CEO Agreements) and, therefore, the grant date fair values related to each of the four vesting portions of this award have been calculated and the related expense included in the SFAS 123 pro forma expense
disclosure over their derived service periods. For the year ended December 31, 2005, approximately $232,000 is included in the SFAS 123 pro forma expense below related to this award.

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2005 had compensation expense for the
Companys stock option and employee stock purchase plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the provisions of FAS 123:

Segment Information

The Company operates in one segment (see note 17).

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Peoples Republic of China uses a tiered method to import and distribute products. The distributors make the sales in the country, but the
product is imported for them by licensed importers. For the year ended December 31, 2007, sales to three importing agents in China accounted for 92% of the Companys product sales. For the year ended December 31, 2006, sales to four
importing agents in China accounted for 92% of the Companys product sales. For the year ended December 31, 2005, sales to three importing agents in China accounted for 91% of the Companys product sales. In 2007, the two largest
customers accounted for 63% and 21% of sales, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of sales in 2007. In 2006, the two largest customers accounted for 66% and 15% of sales, respectively. No other customer accounted for more
than 10% of sales in 2006. In 2005, the three largest customers accounted for 57%, 19% and 15% of sales, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of sales in 2005. As of December 31, 2007, approximately $11,941,000, or 94% of
the Companys accounts receivable were attributable to two importing

agents in China. The Company performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers financial condition, and generally does not require collateral from
its customers. The Company maintains reserves for credit losses, and such losses have been within managements expectation. The Company recognizes reserves for bad debts ranging from 25% to 100% based on the length of time the receivables are
past contractual payment due dates and the Companys collection experience.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB released Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 07-1, Accounting for Collaboration Arrangements Related
to the Development and Commercialization of Intellectual Property (EITF 07-1), which focuses on how the parties to a collaborative arrangement should account for costs incurred and revenue generated on sales to third parties, how
sharing payments pursuant to a collaboration agreement should be presented in the income statement and certain related disclosure questions. EITF 07-1 is effective for all fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect
any impact from the adoption of EITF 07-1 on its results of operations and financial position.

In July 2007, the FASB released EITF Issue
No. 07-3 (EITF 07-3), Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to be used in Future Research and Development Activities. In accordance with EITF 07-3, nonrefundable advance payments for goods
or services to be received in the future for use in research and development activities should be deferred and capitalized. The capitalized amounts should be expensed as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed. EITF 07-3 is
effective for new contracts entered into during fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact that EITF 07-3 will have on its results of
operations and financial position.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement
No. 157, delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring
basis (at least annually). The Company is currently assessing the impact that SFAS No. 157 will have on its results of operations and financial position.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS
No. 159). SFAS No. 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards which require assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial
reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Under SFAS No. 159, a
company may elect to use fair value to measure eligible items at specified election dates and report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Eligible items
include, but are not limited to, accounts and loans receivable, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts payable, guarantees, issued debt and firm commitments. If elected, SFAS No. 159 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of its eligible items and cannot estimate the impact, if any, on its results of operations and financial
position.

securities. The short-term municipals included in available-for-sale securities are auction rate securities which have long final maturities, however, because they are highly rated, highly liquid and their interest rate is reset at auction every 30
days, they are included as available-for-sale securities.

##### Table of Contents

Because of the change in ownership provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, a portion of the
Companys net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods. As a result of the annual limitation, a portion of these
carryforwards may expire before ultimately becoming available to reduce future income tax liabilities.

Leases

In May 2007, the
Company entered into a non-cancelable operating lease agreement for its main office facility (the lease) to lease space from July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2014. The terms of the lease include base rent of approximately $42,000
with rent escalations of approximately 4% per year payable over the lease term. The Company is recognizing the rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Under the terms of the lease, the Company was provided an allowance in
the amount of approximately $206,000 towards the cost of its leasehold improvements. In accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin 88-1, Issues Relating to Accounting for Leases: Time Pattern of the Physical Use of the Property in an Operating Lease,
Lease Incentives in an Operating Lease, Applicability of Leveraged Lease Accounting to Existing Assets of the Lessor, Money-Over-Money Lease Transactions, Wrap Lease Transactions, the Company has recorded the allowance as deferred rent and is
amortizing this amount over the lease term as a reduction of rent expense. The lease requires the Company to pay insurance and taxes and its pro-rata share of operating expenses. As of December 31, 2007, the Company recorded $29,000 and
$194,000 in short-term and long-term deferred rent, respectively.

The Company also leases various office facilities abroad and equipment
under non-cancelable lease agreements. Rent expense in 2007, 2006, and 2005 was $1,408,000, $1,625,000, and $1,458,000, respectively. Minimum future rental payments under facility and equipment operating leases agreements as of December 31,
2007, amount to a total of $4,359,000 which consists of $927,000 in 2008, $718,000 in 2009, $572,000 in 2010, $595,000 in 2011, $608,000 in 2012, and $939,000 thereafter.

The Companys lease for its previous office facility expired in September 2007. There were no further obligations arising from the expiration of the lease. The Company moved to its new main office facility in
September 2007.

Purchase Obligations

License and Royalty Obligations

On
April 26, 2007, the Company announced that it had acquired the exclusive rights in the United States and Canada to develop and commercialize RP101, a clinical-stage compound for the treatment of cancer. Under the terms of the agreements with
Resistys, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Avantogen Oncology, Inc., and with RESprotect GmbH (RESprotect), the Company paid approximately $1,700,000 in upfront fees, a $1,320,000 milestone payment upon dosage of the first patient in
the phase 2 clinical trial in January 2008, and may be required to pay post phase 3 success-based regulatory and commercial milestone payments up to $22,000,000, and royalties on future sales. The $1,700,000 in upfront fees were expensed as incurred
and included in research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Company intends to initially develop RP101 for the treatment of pancreatic cancer in a combination therapy with gemcitabine, the standard of care for
pancreatic cancer therapy, and has entered into an amended agreement with Pharmaceuticals Research Associates, Inc. (PRA) to assume the terms of a certain agreement for Clinical Trials Management Services, for a randomized, double blind,
placebo controlled, phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of RP101, previously entered into by and between Avantogen Oncology, Inc. and PRA. The estimated cost of

another $52,000 was due and payable as of December 31, 2007. The Company has also entered into a supply agreement with RESprotect to purchase RP101 from RESprotect for clinical trials and for commercial purposes following regulatory approval.
Under the terms of the supply agreement, the Company and RESprotect will share the scale-up costs required to manufacture RP101 prior to and after FDA approval. The Companys share of the scale-up costs is estimated to be 1,448,000

The 2004 Stock Option Plan (the 2004 Plan) had reserved 4,800,000 shares for issuance
thereunder. The Board of Directors and stockholders also approved amendments to the 2004 Plan to expand the types of stock-based incentives authorized under the 2004 Plan and to restate the 2004 Plan as the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2005
Plan). The 2005 Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock purchase rights, stock bonuses, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units.
The options are granted at fair market value on the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. In June 2007, the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company approved an increase of 3,000,000 in the shares reserved under the
2005 Plan.

Under the 1991, 1992, 1995 and 2005 Plans, options are exercisable upon conditions determined by the Board of Directors and
expire ten years from the date of grant. Options are generally granted at fair market value on the date of grant and vest over time, generally four years. Although the 1991, 1992 and 1995 Plans have expired, the outstanding options relating to them

Grant) and annually upon their reelection to the Board of Directors at the Companys Annual Meeting of Stockholders (Annual Grant). The options are granted at fair market value on the date of grant and expire ten years from

The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model to calculate the
estimated fair values at the date of grant for 2007, 2006 and 2005 and the resulting weighted-average expected life and weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during those periods are as follows:

The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and
terminations. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Companys stock. The expected dividend assumption is based on
the Companys history and expectations of no dividend payouts.

As of December 31, 2007, unamortized compensation expense related
to unvested options was approximately $3,251,000. The weighted average period over which compensation expense related to these options will be recognized is 3.40 years.

In July 1996, the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company approved the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP) and reserved 500,000 shares for issuance thereunder. In June 2003, the Board
of Directors and stockholders of the Company approved an increase of 500,000 in the shares reserved for issuance under the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. All full-time employees are eligible to participate in the ESPP. Under the terms of the
ESPP, employees could choose to have up to 15% of their salary withheld to purchase the Companys common stock. The purchase price of the stock was 85% of the lower of the fair market value as of the first and last trading day of each quarterly
participation period. In January 2006, the Board of Directors amended the ESPP to provide that, for each Offering Period commencing after January 31, 2006, the purchase price of the stock shall be equal to 95% of the fair market value of a
share of the Companys Common Stock on the Purchase Date (or such other amount as may be established by the Board). Accordingly, no fair value calculation was performed for purchases subsequent to January 31, 2006 because the amended plan
is non-compensatory under FAS 123R. Under the ESPP, the Company sold 22,454 and 80,113 shares to employees in 2006 and 2005, respectively. No shares were sold under the ESPP by the Company in 2007.

Stockholder Rights Agreement

On December 18, 2006, the Companys Board of Directors declared a dividend distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right (collectively, the
Rights) for each outstanding share of the Companys Common Stock, each Right which entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Companys Series D Preferred Stock, $0.001 par
value, at a price of $25.00 pursuant to a Rights Agreement dated as of December 19, 2006, between the Company and Mellon Investor Services LLC (the Rights Agreement). The Rights, which will initially trade with the Common Stock,
become exercisable when a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Companys Common Stock without prior Board approval. In that event, the Rights permit the Companys stockholders, other than the acquiror, to purchase the Companys
Common Stock having a market value of twice the exercise price of the Rights, in lieu of the Preferred Stock. Alternatively, when the Rights become exercisable, the Companys Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of one share of the
Companys Common Stock in exchange for each Right that is then exercisable. In addition, in the event of certain business combinations, the Rights permit the purchase of the Common Stock of an acquiror at a 50% discount. Rights held by the
acquiror will become null and void in each case. Prior to a

person or group acquiring 15%, the Rights can be redeemed for $0.001 each by action of the Board. The Rights Agreement contains an exception to the 15%
ownership threshold for shares currently beneficially owned by Sigma-Tau Finanziaria S.p.A. The Rights expire on December 19, 2016. The Rights Agreement includes a requirement that a committee of independent directors evaluate the Rights
Agreement at least every three years (a TIDE provision).

Note 14  CEO Agreements

On June 2, 2006, Dr. Friedhelm Blobel became the Companys President and CEO and joined the Board of Directors, and Dr. Ira Lawrence
resigned as President and CEO and became a consultant to the Company. Dr. Lawrence also continues to serve as a Director of the Company and serves as a member of the Business Development Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee of the Board of Directors. In accordance with Dr. Lawrences separation agreement, his unvested stock options were cancelled. His options to purchase 200,000 shares that vested during his time of services as CEO will be
exercisable for their term provided that Dr. Lawrence continues his service as a consultant or Director of the Company.

The Company
had entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Lawrence effective June 1, 2005. The employment agreement included the award of an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Companys common stock at $2.97 per share, the closing price
on The NASDAQ Stock Market of a share of the Companys common stock on June 1, 2005. This option had a term of 10 years and shares of such second option would vest upon the Companys common stock trading after June 1, 2005 for at
least 30 consecutive calendar days at or greater than a target closing stock price, as reported on The NASDAQ Stock Market, of (a) $4.50 on or before June 1, 2008 for 100,000 shares, (b) $6.00 on or before June 1, 2009 for
100,000 shares, (c) $8.00 on or before June 1, 2010 for 100,000 shares, and (d) $10.00 on or before June 1, 2011 for 100,000 shares, each price as adjusted for stock dividends, stock splits or similar changes in the
Companys capital structure.

Under APB 25, the Company recognized non-cash expense related to the stock price performance based
option granted to Dr. Lawrence on June 1, 2005, the date he commenced his employment. The terms of this option required the application of variable accounting, and the related non-cash expense to be recognized is effected by the price
level of trading activity in the Companys stock. The Company recognized non-cash expense when the vesting of a portion of the option was determined to be probable. During the year ended December 31, 2005, the market price of the
Companys common stock price had closed above $4.50 for at least 30 consecutive calendar days thus triggering the vesting of 25% of the shares underlying the option. Therefore, the Company recognized a $423,000 non-cash expense attributable to
this vesting in 2005. For the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, no expense related to this option was recognized by the Company as the remaining unvested shares were forfeited upon Dr. Lawrences departure from the Company.

Under SFAS 123, the option is considered a target stock price award and, therefore, the grant date fair values related to each of the four
vesting portions of this award have been calculated and the related expense included in the SFAS 123 pro forma expense disclosure over the derived service periods for each of the four vesting portions of the award. The aggregate fair value of the
award was estimated to be $691,000 at the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation option pricing model with the following assumptions, risk-free interest rate of 4.097%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility factor of 74% and expected life of 10
years. The fair values of the four vesting portions of the awards of $186,000, $173,000, $166,000 and $166,000 were to be amortized over their related derived service periods of 13, 21, 28, and 36 months, respectively. For the year ended
December 31, 2005, approximately $232,000 of such expense is included in the SFAS 123 pro forma expense (see note 1, Significant Accounting Policies, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation).

Under the new CEO agreement with Dr. Blobel, effective June 2, 2006, the Board of Directors is obligated in 2008 to consider an award to
Dr. Blobel of a special cash bonus of up to $300,000, based on his achievement of the previously agreed upon performance targets over the years 2006-2008. The Company will estimate the probable amount of this long-term incentive bonus on a
quarterly basis in order to accrue the bonus over the

related performance period. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had accrued approximately $147,000 relating to the special cash bonus. All expenses
related to the agreement with Dr. Blobel will be recorded to general and administrative expenses.

The employment agreement with
Dr. Blobel also includes two option awards. The first option award is to purchase 400,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price per share equal to the closing price on The NASDAQ Stock Market of a share of the
Companys common stock on June 2, 2006. The option has a term of ten years and will vest in annual installments on each of the first four anniversaries of June 2, 2006. The Company is recognizing compensation cost for these options
based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provision of FAS 123R. The Company is amortizing the compensation cost over the vesting period, which is four years, using the straight line attribution method.

The second option award granted to Dr. Blobel is to purchase 600,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price per share equal
to the closing price on The NASDAQ Stock Market of a share of the Companys common stock on June 2, 2006. This option has a term of 10 years and shares of such option will vest upon the Companys common stock trading after
June 2, 2006 for at least 30 consecutive calendar days at or greater than a target closing stock price as reported on The NASDAQ Stock Market, of (a) $4.50 on or before June 2, 2009 for 100,000 shares, (b) $6.00 on or before
June 2, 2010 for 100,000 shares, (c) $8.00 on or before June 2, 2011 for 100,000 shares, (d) $10.00 on or before June 2, 2012 for 100,000 shares, (e) $12.00 on or before June 2, 2013 for 100,000 shares, and
(f) $14.00 on or before June 2, 2014 for 100,000 shares, each price as adjusted for stock dividends, stock splits or similar changes in the Companys capital structure.

The second option grant is considered an award with market service conditions. The market conditions are not considered performance conditions and
therefore, compensation expense is recognized for the option with market conditions as long as service requirements are met, even if the market condition is not reached. Therefore, the grant date fair values related to each of the six vesting
portions of this award have been calculated and the related compensation costs are being expensed over the service periods for each of the six vesting portions of the award. For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded
$448,000 and $265,000, respectively, of compensation expense related to this award.

Note 15  401k Plan

The Company has a pre-tax savings plan covering substantially all U.S. employees, which qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Under the plan, eligible employees may contribute a portion of their pre-tax salary, subject to certain limitations. The Company contributes and matches 50% of the employee contributions, up to 15% of an employees salary. Company
contributions, which can be terminated at the Companys discretion, were approximately $202,000, $200,000, and $170,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Note 16  Other Income

On April 3, 2006,
the Company announced the resolution of its dispute with Schering Plough KK (SPKK) concerning clinical trials conducted in Japan with ZADAXIN. Under the terms of the settlement, SPKK paid SciClone $8,000,000 on April 18, 2006 which was recorded
as other income for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Note 17  Significant Geographic Information

The Company operates in one business segment: the development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat chronic and life threatening diseases.
Through December 31, 2007, all of the Companys product revenues were generated from the sale of ZADAXIN.

Disclosure
Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, has been made known to them in a
timely fashion. Based on this evaluation, the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective in
reaching a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.

Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting; Attestation Report of the Registered
Public Accounting Firm

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors
of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All
control systems have inherent limitations so that no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues are detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the criteria set forth by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment and those criteria, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.

Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has
audited and issued an attestation report on the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, as stated in their report which is included below.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

We have audited SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc.s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the
effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal control over
financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining
an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such
other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A
companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect
the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our
opinion, SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets
of SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 of
SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and our report dated March 13, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
