Spectrum Pharmaceuticals (SPPI)

We are exposed to certain market risks associated with interest rate fluctuations and credit risk on our cash equivalents and marketable securities, which investments are entered into for purposes other than trading. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal, while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. We do not utilize hedging contracts or similar instruments.

Our primary exposures relate to (1) interest rate risk on our investment portfolio, and (2) credit risk of the companies’ bonds in which we invest. We manage interest rate risk on our investment portfolio by matching scheduled investment maturities with our cash requirements.

Our investments as of September 30, 2006 are primarily in floating rate securities, short-term government securities and money market accounts. Because of our ability to redeem these investments at par with short notice, changes in interest rates would have an immaterial effect on the fair value of these investments. If a 10% change in interest rates were to have occurred on September 30, 2006, any decline in the fair value of our investments would not be material. In addition, we are exposed to certain market risks associated with credit ratings of corporations whose corporate bonds we may purchase from time to time. If these companies were to experience a significant detrimental change in their credit ratings, the fair market value of such corporate bonds may significantly decrease. If these companies were to default on these corporate bonds, we may lose part or all of our principal. We believe that we effectively manage this market risk by diversifying our investments, and selecting securities that generally have third party insurance coverage in the event of default by the issuer.

In addition, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations relating to payments we make to vendors and suppliers using foreign currencies. In particular, we have foreign expenses associated with our ongoing clinical studies in Europe, where some of our obligations are incurred in Euros. We mitigate such risk by maintaining a limited portion of our cash in Euros. Although fluctuations in exchange rates have an effect on our payment obligations, such fluctuations have not had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations as of or for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006.
