Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On October 21, 2010, we issued a press release announcing our results of operations for the quarter and nine–month period ended September 30, 2010, including, among other things, an income statement for those periods. In addition, on the same day we held a teleconference for analysts and media to discuss those results. The teleconference was web cast on our web site. The press release and related financial statements are attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.
For the third quarter and first nine months of 2010, the press release attached as Exhibit 99 includes a non-GAAP presentation of our results. We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share, that differ from financial statements reported in conformity to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In today’s press release, we used non-GAAP financial measures in comparing the financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 with the same periods of 2009. Those measures include operating income, income before taxes, income taxes, effective tax rate, net income, and earnings per share adjusted to exclude the effect of the following items (described in more detail in the press release attached as Exhibit 99):
    In-process research and development charges in the first quarter of 2010 associated with an in-licensing transaction with Acrux Ltd.
 
    Restructuring charges in the first, second, and third quarters of 2010 primarily related to severance costs from previously-announced strategic actions that the company is taking to reduce its cost structure and global workforce.
 
    Charges in the second and third quarters of 2009 related to settlements with the attorneys general of several states of claims related to Zyprexa.
 
    Asset impairments and restructuring charges in the third quarter of 2009 primarily related to the sale of our Tippecanoe, Indiana site.
In addition, we quantified the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates in the third quarter of 2010 compared with the same period of 2009, as well as the impact of U.S. health care reform on our third quarter 2010 results.
In today’s press release, we provided financial expectations for 2010. In addition to providing earnings per share expectations on a GAAP basis, we provided earnings per share expectations on a non-GAAP basis. In order to provide additional insight into the earnings-per-share growth comparison between 2009 results and expected 2010 results, we adjusted earnings per share for the items described above in the first three quarters of 2010 and the second and third quarters 2009, as well as for the items described below for the fourth quarter of 2009.
    Asset impairments and restructuring charges primarily related to severance costs from previously-announced strategic actions that the company is taking to reduce its cost structure and global workforce.
 
    In-process research and development charge associated with a licensing agreement with Incyte Corporation.
We also quantified the expected impact of U.S. health care reform on our full year 2010 results.
The items that we exclude when we provide non-GAAP results or non-GAAP expectations are typically highly variable, difficult to predict, and of a size that could have a substantial impact on our reported operations for a period. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors. Among other things, they may help investors evaluate our

2


 

ongoing operations. They can assist in making meaningful period-over-period comparisons and in identifying operating trends that would otherwise be masked or distorted by the items subject to the adjustments. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources and to evaluate results relative to incentive compensation targets.
Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. For the reasons described above for use of non-GAAP measures, our prospective earnings guidance is subject to adjustment for certain future matters, similar to those identified above, as to which prospective quantification generally is not feasible.
The information in this Item 2.02 and the press release attached as Exhibit 99 are considered furnished to the Commission and are not deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; change in Fiscal Year
Effective October 18, 2010, the Company amended its Bylaws. The following is a summary of the amendments:

    Establish the earliest date for a shareholder’s notice of intent to propose items of business at the annual shareholder meeting as 180 calendar days in advance of the date of the Company’s proxy statement released to shareholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting (Section 1.8(b)).
 
    Establish additional disclosure requirements upon the proposing shareholder, including disclosures of (i) derivative positions or other agreements or arrangements of the proposing shareholder with respect to the Company’s stock; (ii) any agreements, arrangements, or understandings between or among the proposing shareholder and any other person or entity with respect to the business being proposed; (iii) any information about such persons that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with the solicitation of proxies by any such person regarding the proposed business; and (iv) whether the proposing shareholder intends to deliver a proxy statement or proxies to the holders of at least the number of the company’s shares required to pass the proposal (Section 1.8(c)).
 
    Establish a new requirement that the proposing shareholder update all disclosures in the notice for material changes (i) at the record date for the meeting and (ii) as of 10 business days prior to the meeting (Section 1.8(d)).
 
    Clarify that the requirements do not apply to shareholder proposals properly submitted under Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Section 1.8(f)).

3


 

Section 1.9. Notice of Shareholder Nominees.
    Establish the earliest date for a shareholder’s notice of intent to nominate one or more directors at the annual shareholder meeting as 180 calendar days in advance of the date of the Company’s proxy statement released to shareholders in connection with the previous year’s annual shareholder meeting (Section 1.9(b)).
 
    Establish additional disclosure requirements upon the nominating shareholder, including disclosures of (i) derivative positions or other agreements or arrangements of the nominating shareholder and the proposed nominee(s) with respect to the Company’s stock and (ii) any material agreements, arrangements, or understandings between or among the nominating shareholder, the proposed nominee(s), and their associates and affiliates (Section 1.9(c)).
 
    Establish a requirement that the nominating shareholder update all disclosures in the notice for material changes (i) at the record date and (ii) as of 10 business days prior to the meeting (Section 1.9(d)).
 
    Establish a requirement that a proposed nominee must submit a completed questionnaire on a prescribed form relating to the nominee’s background and qualifications (Section 1.9(e)).
 
    Establish a requirement that a proposed nominee must submit a written representation and agreement to the effect that (i) the proposed nominee will not become a party to any agreement or understanding with respect to how such person, if elected director, would vote on any issue that has not been disclosed to the Company or that would interfere with such person’s ability to comply with applicable fiduciary duties as a director; (ii) will not become party to any agreement with any person other than the Company with respect to compensation or indemnification for service as a director that has not been disclosed to the Company; and (iii) if elected, would comply with all publicly disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality, and stock ownership and trading policies and guidelines of the Company (Section 1.9(e)).
Article VI. Indemnification
    Clarify the circumstances under which indemnification may be available for expenses relating to proceedings brought by an eligible person against the Company (Section 6.0(b)).
 
    Establish the priority of indemnity payments for expenses relating to proceedings arising from an eligible person’s service as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity at the request of the Company (Section 6.0(c)).
 
    Provide that advancement of expenses is permissive but not mandatory in the following circumstances (prior Bylaws required mandatory advancement of expenses in these circumstances): (i) expenses incurred after the eligible person’s conviction or plea to a crime arising from the circumstances giving rise to the proceeding (Section 6.3(b)), and (ii) for expenses incurred prior to a Change in Control by the eligible person in a proceeding against the Company to enforce indemnification rights (Section 6.3(c)).
 
    For purposes of the indemnification provisions, revise the definition of “Change in Control” in two respects: (i) increase the beneficial ownership threshold from 15 to 20

4


 

      percent of the voting stock of the Company; and (ii) provide that a change in control shall occur when less than one-half of the total membership of the Company’s board of directors shall be Continuing Directors as defined in Article 13(f) of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (prior Bylaws established a threshold of less than two-thirds of the total membership of the board of directors)(Section 6.5(a)).
The foregoing summary is qualified by reference to the amended Bylaws, which are filed with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.

BYLAWS

ELI LILLY AND COMPANY

(An Indiana Corporation)
ARTICLE I
The Shareholders
     SECTION 1.0. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation for the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as properly may come before the meeting shall be held on the third Monday in April in each year; provided, however, that for a particular year the Board of Directors may designate another date not later than June 30 of that year by resolution adopted by not less than a majority of the directors then in office. Failure to hold an annual meeting of the shareholders at such designated time shall not affect otherwise valid corporate acts or work a forfeiture or dissolution of the Corporation.
     SECTION 1.1. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders may be called at any time by the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
     SECTION 1.2. Time, Place, and Conduct of Meetings. Each meeting of the shareholders shall be held at such time of day and place, either within or without the State of Indiana, as shall be determined by the Board of Directors. Each adjourned meeting of the shareholders shall be held at such time and place as may be provided in the motion for adjournment. The chairman of each meeting shall have sole authority to decide questions relating to the conduct of that meeting.
     SECTION 1.3. Notice of Meetings. The Secretary shall cause a written or printed notice of the place, day and hour and the purpose or purposes of each meeting of the shareholders to be delivered or mailed (which may include by facsimile or other form of electronic communication) at least ten (10) but not more than sixty (60) days prior to the meeting, to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting, at the shareholder’s address as the same appears on the records maintained by the Corporation. Notice of any such shareholders meeting may be waived by any shareholder by delivering a written waiver to the Secretary before or after such meeting. Attendance at any meeting in person or by proxy when the instrument of proxy sets forth in reasonable detail the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall constitute a waiver of notice thereof. Notice of any adjourned meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation shall not be required to be given unless otherwise required by statute.
     SECTION 1.4. Quorum. At any meeting of the shareholders a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on a matter at such meeting, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for action on that matter. In the absence of a quorum, the chairman of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote present in

 


 

person or by proxy, or, if no shareholder entitled to vote is present in person or by proxy, any officer entitled to preside at or act as Secretary of such meeting, may adjourn such meeting from time to time, until a quorum shall be present. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum may be present any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.
     SECTION 1.5. Voting. Except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Articles of Incorporation, at each meeting of the shareholders each holder of shares entitled to vote shall have the right to one vote for each share standing in the shareholder’s name on the books of the Corporation on the record date fixed for the meeting under Section 1.7. Each shareholder entitled to vote shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy executed in writing (which shall include facsimile) or transmitted by electronic submission by the shareholder or a duly authorized attorney in fact. The vote of shareholders approving any matter to which the provisions of Article 9(c) or 9(d) or Article 13 of the Articles of Incorporation or of a statute are applicable shall require the percentage of affirmative vote therein specified. All other matters, except the election of directors, shall require that the votes cast in favor of the matter exceed the votes cast opposing the matter at a meeting at which a quorum is present. In the event that more than one group of shares is entitled to vote as a separate voting group, the vote of each group shall be considered and decided separately.
     SECTION 1.6. Voting Lists. The Secretary shall make or cause to be made, after a record date for a meeting of shareholders has been fixed under Section 1.7 and at least five (5) days before such meeting, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of each such shareholder and the number of shares so entitled to vote held by each which list shall be on file at the principal office of the Corporation and subject to inspection by any shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting. Such list shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and subject to the inspection of any such shareholder during the holding of such meeting or any adjournment. Except as otherwise required by law, such list shall be the only evidence as to who are the shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders. In the event that more than one group of shares is entitled to vote as a separate voting group at the meeting, there shall be a separate listing of the shareholders of each group.
     SECTION 1.7. Fixing of Record Date. For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of shareholders for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors shall fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, not more than seventy (70) days prior to the date on which the particular action requiring this determination of shareholders is to be taken. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, the determination shall, to the extent permitted by law, apply to any adjournment thereof.

     SECTION 1.8. Notice of Shareholder Business.
     (a) At an annual meeting of the shareholders, the only items of business that shall be conducted are those which are proper subjects for action by the shareholders under Indiana law and which have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder. Except for proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (as so amended and inclusive of such rules and regulations, the “Exchange Act”), and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the foregoing clause (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a shareholder to propose business to be brought before the meeting. For any item of business (other than nomination of a person for election as a director which is subject to Section 1.9) to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder proposing the item of business (a “proposing shareholder”) must (A) have beneficial ownership of the Corporation’s common stock both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Section 1.8 and at the time of the meeting, (B) be entitled to vote at the meeting, (C) have the legal right and authority to make the proposal for consideration at the meeting, (D) have given a notice which is timely as required by subsection (b) and in proper form as required by subsection (c), and (E) appear at the meeting in person or by a designated representative to present the item of business.
     (b) To be timely, a proposing shareholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) calendar days in advance of the date of the Corporation’s proxy statement released to shareholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date contemplated at the time of the previous year’s proxy statement, notice by the proposing shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the later of one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in advance of such annual meeting or ten (10) calendar days following the date on which public disclosure of the date of the meeting is first made. For purposes of this Section 1.8 and Section 1.9, “public disclosure” means disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. No adjournment of an annual meeting or announcement thereof shall commence a new time period for the giving of a timely notice as described above.
     (c) To be in proper form, a proposing shareholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth (i) the name and record address of the proposing shareholder(s); (ii) the class and number of the Corporation’s shares which are beneficially owned by the proposing shareholder(s); (iii) a brief description of any derivative instrument (as defined in IND. CODE §23-1-20-6.5 as in effect on October 18, 2010) or other agreement, arrangement, or understanding (including any swaps, warrants, short positions, profits, interests, options, hedging transactions, or borrowed or loaned shares) with respect to the Corporation’s shares, engaged in, directly or indirectly by the

- 3 -


 

proposing shareholder(s), where the purpose or effect of such instrument, agreement, arrangement or understanding is to increase or decrease such shareholders’ ability to share in the profits derived from any increase in the value of the Corporation’s shares, mitigate economic exposure to changes in value of the shares, and/or increase or decrease the voting power of such shareholder(s); and (iv) as to each item of business being proposed (A) a brief description of the business to be brought before the annual meeting; (B) the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting; (C) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration); (D) any material interest of the proposing shareholder(s) in such business; (E) a brief description of all agreements, arrangements or understandings between or among the proposing shareholder(s) or between or among any proposing shareholder and any other person or entity in connection with such business; (F) a representation whether the proposing shareholder intends to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s outstanding shares required to approve the proposal and/or otherwise to solicit proxies from shareholders in support of the proposal; and (G) any other information relating to each such person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with the solicitation of proxies by each such person with respect to the proposed business to be brought by each such person before the annual meeting pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 1.8 and Section 1.9, the term “beneficial ownership” shall have the meaning specified in IND. CODE §23-1-20-3.5 as in effect on October 18, 2010;
     (d) A proposing shareholder shall further update and supplement such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in the notice shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects (i) as of the record date for the meeting and (ii) as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment thereof. Such updates shall be delivered to or mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (A) in the case of the update required under subsection (i), not later than five (5) business days after the record date, and (B) in the case of the update required under subsection (ii), not later than seven (7) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment thereof.
     (e) No business shall be conducted at any annual meeting of shareholders except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.8. The chairman of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.8, and if the chairman should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies may have been solicited in respect of such business.
     (f) The requirements of this Section 1.8 shall apply to any item of business to be brought before an annual meeting of shareholders (other than the election of directors and any proposal properly made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act) regardless of whether the business is presented to shareholders directly at the meeting or by means of an independently financed proxy solicitation. The requirements of this Section 1.8 are included to provide the Corporation notice of a shareholder’s intention to bring business before an annual meeting and shall not be

- 4 -


 

construed as imposing upon any shareholder the requirement to seek approval from the Corporation as a condition precedent to bringing any such business before an annual meeting.
     (g) At any special meeting of the shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
     SECTION 1.9. Notice of Shareholder Nominees.
     (a) Only persons who are nominated by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or by shareholders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.9 shall be eligible for election as Directors.

ARTICLE II
Board of Directors
     SECTION 2.0. General Powers. The property, affairs and business of the Corporation shall be managed under the direction of the Board of Directors.
     SECTION 2.1. Number and Qualifications. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be sixteen (16), which number may be either increased or diminished by resolution adopted by not less than a majority of the directors then in office; provided that the number may not be diminished below nine (9) and no reduction in number shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director. In the event that the holders of shares of preferred stock become entitled to elect two directors, the number of directors and the minimum number of directors shall be increased by two. Neither ownership of stock of the Corporation nor residence in the State of Indiana shall be required as a qualification for a director.
     SECTION 2.2. Classes of Directors and Terms. The directors shall be divided into three classes as nearly equal in number as possible. Except as provided in Article 9 of the Articles of Incorporation fixing one, two, and three year terms for the initial classified board, each class of directors shall be elected for a term of three (3) years. In the event of vacancy, either by death, resignation, or removal of a director, or by reason of an increase in the number of directors, each replacement or new director shall serve for the balance of the term of the class of the director he or she succeeds or, in the event of an increase in the number of directors, of the class to which he or she is assigned. All directors elected for a term shall continue in office until the election and qualification of their respective successors, their death, their resignation in accordance with Section 2.6, their removal in accordance with Section 2.7, or if there has been a reduction in the number of directors and no successor is to be elected, until the end of the term.

     SECTION 2.3. Election of Directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of preferred stock to elect any directors voting separately as a class or series, at each annual meeting of shareholders, the directors to be elected at the meeting shall be chosen by the majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election at the meeting, provided a quorum is present; provided, however, that if the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected, then directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote, provided a quorum is present. For purposes of this Section 2.3, a “majority of votes cast” shall mean that the number of votes cast “for” a director’s election exceeds the number of votes cast “against” that director’s election. If a nominee fails to receive the required vote and is an incumbent director, the director shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors, subject to acceptance by the Board of Directors. The Directors and Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board of Directors will act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Directors and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose (by a press release, a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or other broadly disseminated means of communication) its decision regarding the tendered resignation and the rationale behind the decision within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results. The Directors and Corporate Governance Committee in making its recommendation and the Board of Directors in making its decision may each consider any factors or other information that they consider appropriate and relevant. The director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the recommendation of the Directors and Corporate Governance Committee or the decision of the Board of Directors with respect to his or her resignation. If an incumbent director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such director shall continue to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal. If a director’s resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors, or if a nominee fails to receive the required vote and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors may fill the resulting vacancy pursuant to the provisions of Article 9 of the Amended Articles of Incorporation or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of Article 9 of the Amended Articles of Incorporation and Section 2.2.
     The election of directors by the shareholders shall be by written ballot if directed by the chairman of the meeting or if the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected.
     Any vacancy on the Board of Directors shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors.
     If the holders of preferred stock are entitled to elect any directors voting separately as a class or series, those directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares of preferred stock entitled to vote in the election at the meeting, provided a quorum of the holders of shares of preferred stock is present.

- 17 -


 

certifying the number of shares owned by the shareholder in the Corporation. The signatures of such officers, the signature of the transfer agent and registrar, and the Seal of the Corporation may be facsimiles. In case any officer or employee who shall have signed, or whose facsimile signature or signatures shall have been used on, any certificate shall cease to be an officer or employee of the Corporation before the certificate shall have been issued and delivered by the Corporation, the certificate may nevertheless be adopted by the Corporation and be issued and delivered as though the person or persons who signed the certificate or whose facsimile signature or signatures shall have been used thereon had not ceased to be such officer or employee of the Corporation; and the issuance and delivery by the Corporation of any such certificate shall constitute an adoption thereof. Every certificate shall state on its face (or in the case of book-entry shares, the statements evidencing ownership of such shares shall state) the name of the Corporation and that it is organized under the laws of the State of Indiana, the name of the person to whom it is issued, and the number and class of shares and the designation of the series, if any, the certificate represents, and shall state conspicuously on its front or back that the Corporation will furnish the shareholder, upon written request and without charge, a summary of the designations, relative rights, preferences and limitations applicable to each class and the variations in rights, preferences and limitations determined for each series (and the authority of the Board of Directors to determine variations for future series). Every certificate (or book-entry statement) shall state whether such shares have been fully paid and are non-assessable. If any such shares are not fully paid, the certificate (or book-entry statement) shall be legibly stamped to indicate the percentum which has been paid up, and as further payments are made thereon, the certificate shall be stamped (or book-entry statement updated) accordingly. Subject to the foregoing provisions, certificates representing shares in the Corporation shall be in such form as shall be approved by the Board of Directors. There shall be entered upon the stock books of the Corporation at the time of the issuance or transfer of each share the number of the certificates representing such share (if any), the name of the person owning the shares represented thereby, the class of such share and the date of the issuance or transfer thereof.
     SECTION 5.1. Transfer of Shares. Transfer of shares of the Corporation shall be made on the books of the Corporation by the holder of record thereof, or by the shareholder’s attorney thereunto duly authorized in writing and filed with the Secretary of the Corporation or any of its transfer agents, and on surrender of the certificate or certificates (if any) representing such shares. The Corporation and its transfer agents and registrars, shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or shares the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and accordingly shall not be bound to recognize any legal, equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person whether or not it or they shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise expressly provided by the statutes of the State of Indiana. Shareholders shall notify the Corporation in writing of any changes in their addresses from time to time.
     SECTION 5.2. Regulations. Subject to the provisions of this Article V, the Board of Directors may make such rules and regulations as it may deem expedient concerning the issuance, transfer and regulation of certificates for shares or book-entry shares of the Corporation.

The holders of any shares of the Corporation shall immediately notify the Corporation or one of its transfer agents and registrars of any loss or destruction of the certificate representing the same. The Corporation may issue a new certificate in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it alleged to have been lost or destroyed upon such terms and under such regulations as may be adopted by the Board of Directors or the Secretary, and the Board of Directors or Secretary may require the owner of the lost or destroyed certificate or the owner’s legal representatives to give the Corporation a bond in such form and for such amount as the Board of Directors or Secretary may direct, and with such surety or sureties as may be satisfactory to the Board of Directors or the Secretary to indemnify the Corporation and its transfer agents and registrars against any claim that may be made against it or any such transfer agent or registrar on account of the alleged loss or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate.

Any redemption pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be made at the fair value of the control shares and pursuant to such procedures for the redemption as may be set forth in these Bylaws or adopted by resolution of the Board of Directors.
     As used in this Section 5.5, the terms “control shares,” “control share acquisition,” “acquiring person statement” and “acquiring person” shall have the meanings ascribed to them in IND. CODE §23-1-42.

ARTICLE VI
Indemnification
     SECTION 6.0. Right to Indemnification.
     (a) The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, indemnify any person who is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation (“Eligible Person”) and who is or was involved in any manner (including, without limitation, as a party or a witness) or is threatened to be made so involved in any threatened, pending or completed investigation, claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor) (a “Proceeding”) by reason of the fact that such Eligible Person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, member, manager, trustee, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan) (a “Covered Entity”), against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines or penalties against (including excise taxes assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan) and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Eligible Person in connection with such Proceeding.
     (b) Notwithstanding Section 6.0(a), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify an Eligible Person with respect to a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Eligible Person, except with respect to (i) a judicial adjudication or arbitration commenced by the Eligible Person under Section 6.4(e) or (f), as to which the rights to indemnification are provided pursuant Section 6.4(h), or (ii) a Proceeding (or part thereof) that was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
     (c) In the event a Proceeding arises out of an Eligible Person’s service to a Covered Entity, the indemnification provided by the Corporation under this Article shall be secondary to and not pari passu with any indemnification provided by the Covered Entity. However, the Corporation may provide indemnification to the Eligible Person in the first instance, in which case the Corporation shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights of the Eligible Person with respect to the indemnification provided by the Covered Entity and any insurance coverage maintained by the Covered Entity on behalf of the Eligible Person.
     (d) Any right of an Eligible Person to indemnification shall be a contract right and shall include the right to receive, prior to the conclusion of any Proceeding, advancement of any expenses incurred by the Eligible Person in connection with such Proceeding in accordance with Section 6.3.
     SECTION 6.1. Insurance, Contracts and Funding. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance to protect itself and any Eligible Person against any expense, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement as specified in Section 6.0 or incurred by any Eligible Person in connection with any Proceeding referred to in such section, to the fullest extent

permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. The Corporation may enter into agreements with any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or any director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of any Covered Entity supplemental to or in furtherance of the provisions of this Article and may create a trust fund or use other means (including, without limitation, a letter of credit) to ensure the payment of such amounts as may be necessary to effect indemnification and advancement of expenses as provided in this Article.
     SECTION 6.2. Non-Exclusive Rights; Applicability to Certain Proceedings. The rights provided in this Article shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which any Eligible Person may otherwise be entitled, and the provisions of this Article shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of any Eligible Person and shall be applicable to Proceedings commenced or continuing after the adoption of this Article, whether arising from acts or omissions occurring before or after such adoption.
     SECTION 6.3. Advancement of Expenses.
     (a) Except as provided under Sections 6.3(b) and (c) below, all reasonable expenses incurred by or on behalf of an Eligible Person in connection with any Proceeding shall be advanced to the Eligible Person by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements from the Eligible Person complying with this section and Section 6.4 requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding, unless a determination has been made pursuant to Section 6.4 that such Eligible Person is not entitled to indemnification. Any such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the expenses incurred by the Eligible Person and shall include (i) a written representation that, in connection with the matters giving rise to the Proceeding, the Eligible Person was acting in good faith and in what he or she believed to be the best interests of the Corporation or at least not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and (ii) a written affirmation or undertaking to repay advances if it is ultimately determined that the Eligible Person is not entitled to indemnification under this Article.
     (b) Notwithstanding Section 6.3(a), advancement of expenses shall not be mandatory, but shall be permissive at the discretion of the Corporation, for expenses incurred after the Eligible Person’s conviction by a trial court of competent jurisdiction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere or its equivalent to, a crime arising from the circumstances giving rise to the Proceeding.
     (c) Notwithstanding Section 6.3(a), advancement of expenses shall not be mandatory, but shall be permissive at the discretion of the Corporation, for expenses incurred by or on behalf of Eligible Persons for judicial adjudications or arbitrations under Section 6.4(e) or (f), except that advancement of such expenses shall be mandatory for judicial adjudications or arbitrations brought after a Change in Control in connection with expenses relating to underlying Proceedings arising from actions or failures to act prior to the Change in Control, provided the Eligible Person complies with the requirements of Section 6.3(a).

     SECTION 6.4. Procedures; Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings; Remedies. In furtherance, but not in limitation, of the foregoing provisions, the following procedures, presumptions and remedies shall apply with respect to and the right to indemnification and advancement of expenses under this Article.
     (a) To obtain indemnification under this Article, an Eligible Person shall submit to the Secretary of the Corporation a written request, including such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the Eligible Person and reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the Eligible Person is entitled to indemnification (the “Supporting Documentation”). The determination of the Eligible Person’s entitlement to indemnification shall be made not later than sixty (60) days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request together with the Supporting Documentation. The Secretary of the Corporation shall, promptly upon receipt of such request, advise the Board in writing of the Eligible Person’s request.
     (b) An Eligible Person’s entitlement to indemnification under this Article shall be determined in one of the following methods, such method to be selected by the Board of Directors, regardless of whether there are any Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined): (i) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, if they constitute a quorum of the Board; (ii) by a written opinion of Special Counsel (as hereinafter defined) if (A) a Change in Control shall have occurred and the Eligible Person so requests or (B) a quorum of the Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, a majority of such Disinterested Directors so directs; (iii) by the shareholders of the Corporation (but only if a majority of the Disinterested Directors, if they constitute a quorum of the Board, presents the issue of entitlement to the shareholders for their determination); or (iv) as provided in subsection (d).
     (c) In the event the determination of entitlement is to be made by Special Counsel, a majority of the Disinterested Directors shall select the Special Counsel, but only Special Counsel to which the Eligible Person does not reasonably object; provided, however, that if a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Eligible Person shall select such Special Counsel, but only Special Counsel to which a majority of the Disinterested Directors does not reasonably object.
     (d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Article, if a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Eligible Person shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification (with respect to actions or failures to act occurring prior to such Change in Control) upon submission of a request for indemnification together with the Supporting Documentation in accordance with subsection (a), and thereafter the Corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in reaching a contrary determination. In any event, if the person or persons empowered under subsection (c) to determine entitlement shall not have been appointed or shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Corporation of the request therefor together with the Supporting Documentation, the Eligible Person shall be deemed to be, and shall be, entitled to indemnification and advancement of expenses unless (i) the Eligible Person misrepresented or failed to disclose a material fact in making the request for indemnification or in the Supporting Documentation or (ii) such indemnification is prohibited by law. The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, adversely affect the right of an Eligible Person to indemnification or create a presumption that the Eligible Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the Eligible Person

- 22 -


 

reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that the Eligible Person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
     (e) In the event that a determination is made that the Eligible Person is not entitled to indemnification (i) the Eligible Person shall be entitled to seek an adjudication of his or her entitlement to such indemnification either, at the Eligible Person’s sole option, in (A) an appropriate court of the state of Indiana or any other court of competent jurisdiction or (B) an arbitration to be conducted in Indianapolis, Indiana, by a single arbitrator pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association; (ii) in any such judicial proceeding or arbitration the Eligible Person shall not be prejudiced by reason of the prior determination pursuant to this Section 6.4; and (iii) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, in any such judicial proceeding or arbitration the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the Eligible Person is not entitled to indemnification but only with respect to actions or failures to act occurring prior to such Change in Control.
     (f) If a determination shall have been made or deemed to have been made that the Eligible Person is entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be obligated to pay the amounts incurred by the Eligible Person within ten (10) days after such determination has been made or deemed to have been made and shall be conclusively bound by such determination unless (i) the Eligible Person misrepresented or failed to disclose a material fact in making the request for indemnification or in the Supporting Documentation or (ii) such indemnification is prohibited by law. In the event that (A) any advancement of expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 6.3 or (B) payment of indemnification is not made within ten (10) days after a determination of entitlement to indemnification has been made, the Eligible Person shall be entitled to seek judicial enforcement of the Corporation’s obligation, to pay to the Eligible Person such advancement of expenses or indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may bring an action, in an appropriate court in the State of Indiana or any other court of competent jurisdiction, contesting the right of the Eligible Person to receive indemnification hereunder due to the occurrence of an event described in clause (i) or (ii) of this subsection (f) (a “Disqualifying Event”); provided, however, that in any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving the occurrence of such Disqualifying Event.
     (g) The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 6.4 that the procedures and presumptions of this Article are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Corporation is bound by the provisions of this Article.
     (h) In the event that the Eligible Person seeks a judicial adjudication of or an award in arbitration to enforce his or her rights under, or to recover damages for breach of this Article, the Eligible Person shall be entitled to recover from the Corporation, and shall be indemnified by the Corporation, against, any expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Eligible Person in connection with such adjudication or arbitration if the Eligible Person prevails in such adjudication or arbitration. If it shall be determined in such judicial adjudication or arbitration that the Eligible Person is entitled to receive part but not all of the indemnification or advancement of expenses sought, the expenses incurred by the Eligible Person in connection with such judicial adjudication or arbitration shall be prorated accordingly.

“Lilly delivered solid financial results in the third quarter, highlighted by international revenue growth and the impact of ongoing cost containment initiatives,” said John C. Lechleiter Ph.D., Lilly’s chairman and chief executive officer. “Japan performed particularly well in the quarter, growing revenue by 27 percent, driven by recent product launches. Strong performance was also seen in key emerging market countries, including China. Based upon our strong worldwide year-to-date results and lower estimates of the impact of U.S. health care reform, we have once again raised our earnings guidance for the year.”
Lechleiter continued, “Although we are disappointed by recent pipeline setbacks, we remain committed to our strategy of accelerating the flow of innovative new medicines that provide improved outcomes for individual patients. We believe that this strategy, while not without risk, will provide the greatest value to our shareholders and the patients we serve.”
Key Events Over the Last Three Months
    The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a complete response letter regarding the New Drug Application (NDA) for BydureonTM. In the complete response letter, the FDA requested a thorough QT (tQT) study with exposures of exenatide higher than typical therapeutic levels of Bydureon. Additionally, the FDA has now requested the results of the DURATION-5 study to evaluate the efficacy, and the labeling of the safety and effectiveness, of the commercial formulation of Bydureon. The company, along with its partners Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Alkermes, Inc., have set a goal to submit their reply to the complete response letter by the end of 2011, pending discussions with the FDA. Based on the requirements for additional data, this will likely be considered a Class 2 resubmission requiring a six-month review.
 
    The company and its partner, MacroGenics, Inc., announced that an independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) completed a planned analysis of one-year safety and efficacy data of the Protégé Phase 3 clinical trial of teplizumab, an investigational biologic under development for the treatment of individuals with recent-onset type 1 diabetes. The DMC concluded that the primary efficacy endpoint of the study, a composite of a patient’s total daily insulin usage and HbA1c level at 12 months, was not met. The DMC, noting that all administration of experimental drug had been completed, commented that appropriate safety monitoring is warranted. No unanticipated safety issues were identified in the DMC’s review. The companies have decided to suspend further enrollment and dosing of

      patients in two other ongoing clinical trials of teplizumab in type 1 diabetes and are currently evaluating the next steps for teplizumab.
    The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a prior ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan that the method-of-use patent for Gemzar® is invalid. The company has asked for reconsideration of this decision by the Federal Circuit court. The court’s decision did not allow for the immediate entry of generic gemcitabine in the U.S. market. Supported by the compound patent, the company expects to maintain U.S. market exclusivity for Gemzar until November 15, 2010.
 
    The U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey ruled that the method-of-use patent for Strattera® is invalid. The patent had been set to expire in May of 2017. The company is currently appealing this decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, with a hearing scheduled on December 9, 2010. The Appeals Court has granted an injunction that prevents the launch of generic atomoxetine until a ruling is rendered.
 
    The company halted development of semagacestat, a gamma secretase inhibitor being studied as a potential treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, because preliminary results from two ongoing long-term Phase III studies showed the compound did not slow disease progression and was associated with worsening of clinical measures of cognition and the ability to perform activities of daily living.
 
    The FDA Anesthetic and Life Support Drugs Advisory Committee voted 8-6 in favor of expanding the pain indications for Cymbalta® to a broader population that will be further defined by the FDA, if approved.
 
    The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a prior ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana that the company’s method-of-use patents for Evista® are valid. These patents provide protection for Evista in the U.S. through March of 2014.
 
    The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit agreed with the company’s position that a class should not have been certified in a pending third-party payor suit, in which unions and insurers who act as third-party payors alleged that they overpaid for Zyprexa® prescriptions. The court also agreed with the company that plaintiffs’ overpricing claims should not go forward.

In the third quarter of 2010, worldwide total revenue was $5.655 billion, an increase of 2 percent compared with the third quarter of 2009. This 2 percent revenue growth was comprised of an increase of 3 percent due to higher prices, offset by a 1 percent decrease due to the impact of foreign exchange rates, while volume was essentially flat. Total revenue in the U.S. was essentially flat at $3.150 billion, due to higher prices, offset by decreased volume due primarily to wholesaler buying patterns. Total revenue outside the U.S. increased 4 percent to $2.504 billion due to increased demand, partially offset by the negative impact of foreign exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, lower prices. Third-quarter 2010 total revenue would have been reduced by approximately $65 million due to the impact of U.S. health care reform, but was only reduced by approximately $25 million, due primarily to the issuance of guidelines that clarified the implementation of certain aspects of health care reform legislation, resulting in a reduction of a prior accrual.
Gross margin increased 3 percent in the third quarter of 2010. Gross margin as a percent of total revenue was 82.5 percent, reflecting an increase of 1.4 percentage points compared with the third quarter of 2009, driven primarily by manufacturing productivity improvements and increased prices.
Marketing, selling and administrative expenses were essentially flat at $1.695 billion. Higher marketing and selling expenses outside the U.S. were offset by lower administrative expenses and company-wide cost containment efforts. Research and development expenses were $1.220 billion, or 22 percent of total revenue. Compared with the third quarter of 2009, research and development expenses grew 9 percent due primarily to a charge of approximately $80 million related to the termination of the development of semagacestat, and increased costs of late-stage clinical trials. Total operating expense, defined as the sum of research and development, marketing, selling and administrative expenses, increased 3 percent compared with the third quarter of 2009.
In the third quarter of 2010, the company recognized a charge of $59.5 million for restructuring primarily related to severance and other related costs from previously announced strategic actions that the company is taking to reduce its cost structure and global workforce. In the third quarter of 2009, the company recognized asset impairments, restructuring and other special charges of $549.8 million, primarily related to the sale of the Tippecanoe manufacturing site to Evonik Industries, and a special pretax charge related to Zyprexa litigation.

Operating income in the third quarter of 2010 increased 49 percent to $1.693 billion, compared to the third quarter of 2009, due primarily to lower asset impairments, restructuring and other special charges.
Other income (expense) improved $45.2 million, to a net expense of $21.7 million, primarily due to an insurance recovery in the third quarter of 2010 associated with the theft of product at the company’s Enfield distribution center in March 2010, as well as lower net interest expense.
The effective tax rate was 22 percent in the third quarter of 2010, compared with an effective tax rate of 11.9 percent in the third quarter of 2009. The effective tax rate for 2010 reflects the expiration of the R&D tax credit in the U.S. The 2009 effective tax rate benefitted primarily from the deductibility of the asset impairment and restructuring charges in the third quarter of 2009 associated with the sale of the Tippecanoe site.
Net income and earnings per share increased to $1.303 billion and $1.18, respectively, compared with third-quarter 2009 net income of $941.8 million and earnings per share of $.86.
Third-Quarter non-GAAP Results
Operating income increased 4 percent to $1.753 billion, due to increased gross margin, partially offset by increased research and development expenses. The effective tax rate was 22.5 percent, up from 19.0 percent in the third quarter of 2009. The effective tax rate for 2010 reflects the expiration of the R&D tax credit in the U.S. The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2009 reflected a benefit for a cumulative adjustment in the forecasted effective tax rate for the year. Net income increased 2 percent to $1.341 billion, while earnings per share increased 1 percent to $1.21. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, operating income and earnings per share would have increased approximately 7 percent and 5 percent, respectively.
For purposes of non-GAAP reporting, items totaling $.03 and $.34 per share for the third quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively, have been excluded. For further detail, see the reconciliation below as well as the footnotes to the non-GAAP income statement later in this press release.

The company now expects volume-driven revenue growth in the mid-single digits, driven primarily by Alimta, Cymbalta, Humalog, Cialis and Effient. For 2010, the company now expects that U.S. health care reform will reduce revenue by approximately $225 million to $275 million.

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses are still projected to grow in the low-single digits while research and development expenses are still projected to grow in the low-double digits.
Other income is now expected to be a net expense of between $0 and $50.0 million. The tax rate is still expected to be approximately 23 percent, assuming extension of the R&D tax credit in the U.S. retroactive to January 1, 2010.
