Company and to protect the Company and its shareholders against coercive takeover tactics. The plan was not adopted as a result of any existing or proposed potential takeover threat. Under the terms of the plan, Axonyx distributed one purchase right for each share of common stock outstanding to shareholders at the close of business on May 27, 2005. Axonyx will not issue a separate certificate for the rights unless and until they become exercisable. Each right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of a new series of participating preferred stock at an initial purchase price of $15. The rights will become exercisable and will detach from the common stock for a specified period after any person or group, without the approval of the Company’s board of directors, has become the beneficial owner of, or commences a tender offer or exchange offer for, 15% or more of the then outstanding shares of Axonyx common stock (subject to certain exceptions).
