Annual Report

Dear Shareholder:

At  the  beginning  of  2011,  my  role  was  as  a  member  of 
XOMA’s Board of Directors, which allowed me to be involved 
in the Company, but at a distance.  When asked to increase 
my  involvement  and  become  the  Interim  Chief  Executive 
Officer,  I  accepted  the  position,  not  anticipating  that  my 
own hands-on role with XOMA, its people, and science would 
lead  me  to  join  the  Company  in  a  permanent  capacity.    I 
want to use this opportunity to share with you the reasons 
that drove me to choose to lead the XOMA team into the 
next, and probably most exciting, phase of its history.

While the first half of 2011 included some disappointments, 
we  did  see  some  significant  accomplishments.  XOMA 
attracted  a  world-class  pharmaceutical  company,  Les 
Laboratoires  Servier,  to  become  our  partner  for  what  we 
believe  is  our  most  valuable  asset,  gevokizumab.    Paul 
Rubin,  MD,  joined  us  last  June  and  led  the  Clinical  and 
Regulatory  teams  in  taking  a  fresh  look  at  our  IL-1  beta 
antibody to identify ways to increase its value for XOMA and 
its shareholders. This challenge resulted in two important 
decisions for the gevokizumab program.  

First, we designed a significantly expanded Phase 3 uveitis 
program for gevokizumab that meets Servier’s needs and 
improves our U.S. commercial opportunity.  Non-infectious 
uveitis (NIU) affecting the posterior segment of the eye is 
a broad spectrum ocular disorder, which includes Behçet’s 
uveitis, and impacts approximately 150,000 patients in the 
U.S.  We expect a Phase 3 NIU study conducted primarily 
in the U.S. and run by XOMA and a Phase 3 Behçet’s uveitis 
study  conducted  outside  the  U.S.  and  run  by  Servier  will 
form the basis of the Biologic License Application seeking 
approval for treatment of NIU patients in the U.S.  The entire 
program,  including  the  manufacturing  of  gevokizumab 
for  these  studies,  is  covered  by  special  provisions  in  our 
agreement with Servier, under which our partner pays the 
first $50 million of costs, after which we share costs 50-50.  
We anticipate our NIU study will begin in the second quarter 
of  2012  and  that  Servier  will  launch  the  Behçet’s  uveitis 
study during the year.

powered studies to determine efficacy in a short period of 
time.  We believe our multi-study approach looking at three 
independent  diseases  should  enhance  the  probability  of 
identifying the next Phase 3 opportunity for gevokizumab.  
Development of an anti-inflammatory drug candidate is best 
accomplished with this type of a thoughtful approach, and 
we  are  committed  to  performing  the  studies  that  allow 
gevokizumab  to  point  us  to  the  optimal  path.    Our  first 
POC study, designed to determine gevokizumab’s ability to 
treat the inflammatory lesions seen in moderate to severe 
inflammatory  acne  vulgaris,  is  underway  and  is  expected 
to complete in the second half of 2012.  Our second POC 
study, which we expect to initiate in the second quarter of 
2012, will determine gevokizumab’s ability to treat erosive 
osteoarthritis  of  the  hand  (EOA).  EOA  is  caused  by  the 
breakdown of the body’s natural balance between cartilage 
formation  and  degradation,  which  leads  to  the  narrowing 
of  the  space  between  the  first  and  second  joints  in  the 
fingers.  Patients experience significant pain, stiffness, and 
ultimately loss of function.  We have not selected our third 
indication but anticipate we will be ready to initiate the study 
in the third quarter of 2012.  

Since  its  inception,  XOMA  has  been  known  for  its  major 
scientific  advances,  and  2011  was  no  exception  as 
we  unveiled  our  XMet  program.  Using  our  leading-edge 
allosteric modulation approach, the XOMA discovery team 
has  been  working  to  discover  antibodies  impacting  the 
insulin receptor.  This work resulted in two newly discovered 
antibodies:  XMetA, an insulin activator, and XMetS, an insulin 
sensitizer.  By working differently than drugs currently used 
to treat diabetes, we believe XMet could have a revolutionary 
effect on how both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are treated.  
In order to develop our XMet antibodies optimally, we are 
seeking a partner with significant experience in conducting 
diabetes  studies,  yet  we  want  to  retain  significant  value 
in  these  assets.    We  will  spend  2012  talking  with  the 
companies known for their work in diabetes, and when the 
time and the terms are right, we expect to partner these 
compounds.

The second important step we took to increase the value 
of  gevokizumab  was  our  decision  to  launch  a  proof-
of-concept  (POC)  program  in  three  distinctly  different 
indications  that  have  IL-1  beta  involvement.  The  goal  is 
to find the next indication beyond NIU by conducting well-

While  we  knew  there  was  significant  value  in  expanding 
our  Phase  3  gevokizumab  study  and  launching  the  POC 
program,  as  well  as  continuing  to  develop  the  XMet 
program,  we  were  determined  to  minimize  the  impact 
these  activities  would  have  on  our  burn  rate.    When 

I  joined  the  day-to-day  operations,  the  management 
team  and  I  focused  on  identifying  activities  and  costs 
that  could  be  eliminated  from  our  internal  operations, 
particularly  recurring  fixed  costs  that  might  divert  cash 
away from value-creating opportunities. Concurrent with my 
accepting  the  position  as  CEO  in  January,  we  announced 
the  streamlining  of  XOMA’s  operations,  which  freed  funds 
that  we  will  apply  to  value-creating  activities,  specifically 
the  expansion  of  gevokizumab’s  clinical  development 
program.  The  streamlining  resulted  in  a  34  percent 
reduction  in  our  workforce.    We  decided  to  outsource 
Phase 3 and commercial-scale manufacturing, to eliminate 
internal research functions that were non-differentiating or 
obtainable  cost-effectively  through  third-party  providers, 
and to reduce G&A expenses by approximately 20 percent.  
We also decided to complete work on the $120 million in 
biodefense  contracts  we  have  been  awarded,  but  we  will 
not actively pursue future contracts. The net result of these 
changes  was  a  reduction  of  approximately  $14  million  in 
annual  fixed  internal  costs  that  will  be  applied  to  value-
increasing activities, primarily those related to gevokizumab.

With our recent achievements toward attaining our vision of 
becoming a commercial organization in the U.S. with a strong 
scientific  discovery  capability,  there  is  a  renewed  energy 
amongst the team here at XOMA.  We were gratified that 
telling the story of our actions and plans for XOMA allowed 
us to attract $39 million in capital in early 2012, reflecting 
the new interest institutional investors have in XOMA.  We 
believe this fundraising will take us into 2014, at which point 
we expect to have Phase 3 data from gevokizumab’s NIU 
study and the results from the POC program, likely with a 
second Phase 3 indication under consideration.  

To  help  us  recognize  the  true  value  from  our  scientific 
discoveries  by  retaining  certain  commercial  rights,  we 
knew  we  had  to  transition  from  a  solely  science-based 
company  to  an  organization  that  also  had  a  commercial 
capability.  This vision was articulated in 2011, and early 
in 2012, we announced we had acquired the U.S. rights to 
the perindopril franchise from our partner Servier, including 
the marketed product sold under the brand name ACEON® 
(perindopril  erbumine),  an  angiotensin  converting  enzyme 
(ACE)  inhibitor  used  to  treat  hypertension  and  stable 
coronary  artery  disease,  and  a  portfolio  of  fixed-dose 
combination (FDC) product candidates that use a proprietary 
form of perindopril combined with other active ingredients.  
This  proprietary  form  of  perindopril  has  patent  protection 
until 2023.  We chose to initiate the three-arm 816-patient 
Phase 3 PATH trial (the PATH name representing Perindopril 
Amlodipine  for  the  Treatment  of  Hypertension),  since  we 

were  able  to  negotiate  agreements  between  Servier,  our 
CRO  and  XOMA  that  make  the  study  cash-flow  neutral  to 
XOMA.  The PATH trial, which we plan to conduct, will be 
funded in part through a co-development arrangement with 
Servier with the balance provided by the profits generated 
from  U.S.  ACEON®  sales,  whenever  those  profits  come.  
Let me emphasize the critically important fact this study will 
be cash-flow neutral to XOMA.

If positive, we expect the PATH trial will be the only additional 
efficacy  trial  needed  to  complement  the  existing  clinical 
data  in  support  of  a  New  Drug  Application  submission.  
Clinical development for FDCs in hypertension follows well-
defined FDA guidelines.  We expect to complete the study 
in approximately one year, at which point Servier and we will 
determine next steps.  While XOMA will not create a primary 
care sales force to market the FDC, we believe it can have 
commercial value to a third party or under some alternate 
approach.  The perindopril franchise generated $1.2 billion 
in sales outside the U.S. for Servier during 2011, and the 
FDC  product  most  similar  to  the  one  in  our  clinical  study 
achieved approximately $150 million in sales.  

Most  importantly,  with  our  recent  capital  raise,  we  have 
secured the financing we believe is necessary to complete 
the  key  studies  of  gevokizumab  so  we  can  concentrate 
fully on executing those studies and building value for our 
shareholders.  We are transitioning away from our historic 
reliance on licensing deals and royalty revenue to become 
a  company  that  benefits  more  fully  from  our  scientific 
discoveries.  The XOMA we envision will be a self-sustaining 
commercial organization in the U.S., with partners around 
the globe supporting our products in local markets.  The 
management  team  and  I  strongly  believe  XOMA,  as  a 
business, is ready to take advantage of its long history of 
scientific successes.  

We thank you for your continued support of XOMA, and we 
look forward to a bright future together.

Sincerely,

John Varian 
Chief Executive Officer,  
Member of the Board of Directors

Overview

PART I

XOMA Corporation (“XOMA” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, discovers and develops

innovative antibody-based therapeutics. Our lead drug candidate is gevokizumab (formerly XOMA 052), a
humanized antibody that binds to the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 beta (“IL-1 beta”). In collaboration
with our partner, Les Laboratoires Servier (“Servier”), we expect gevokizumab to enter global Phase 3 clinical
development in 2012 for non-infectious uveitis (“NIU”) and Behçet’s uveitis. We anticipate Servier will enter
gevokizumab into a Phase 2 study in a cardiovascular disease indication during 2012. Separately, we have
launched a Phase 2 proof-of-concept program for gevokizumab to evaluate additional indications for further
development, including a clinical trial in moderate-to-severe inflammatory acne, which began enrolling patients
in December 2011, and a clinical trial in erosive osteoarthritis of the hand, for which we plan to initiate
enrollment in the second quarter of 2012.

We have entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Servier to jointly develop and commercialize
gevokizumab in multiple indications. Gevokizumab is designed to inhibit the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1 beta,
which is believed to be a primary trigger of pathologic inflammation in multiple diseases. Under the terms of the
agreement, Servier has worldwide rights to gevokizumab for cardiovascular disease and diabetes indications and
rights outside the U.S. and Japan to all other indications. We retain development and commercialization rights in the
U.S. and Japan to all indications except cardiovascular disease and diabetes and have an option to reacquire rights to
these indications from Servier in these territories. Should we exercise our option to reacquire rights to either or both
of the cardiovascular disease or diabetes indications in the U.S. and Japan, we will be required to pay Servier an
option fee and partially reimburse its incurred development expenses.

Our proprietary preclinical pipeline includes classes of antibodies that activate or sensitize the insulin
receptor in vivo and represent potential new therapeutic approaches to the treatment of diabetes. We have
developed these and other antibodies using some or all of our ADAPT™ antibody discovery and development
platform, our ModulX™ technologies for generating allosterically modulating antibodies, and our OptimX™
technologies for optimizing biophysical properties of antibodies, including affinity, immunogenicity, stability
and manufacturability.

In January 2012, we announced that we had acquired U.S. rights to the perindopril franchise from Servier.
The agreement includes ACEON® (perindopril erbumine), a currently marketed angiotensin converting enzyme
(“ACE”) inhibitor, and a portfolio of three fixed-dose combination product candidates where perindopril is
combined with another active ingredient(s), such as a calcium channel blocker. The longest of the patents relating
to the proprietary form of perindopril in each of the combination product candidates expires in December 2023.
We assumed commercialization activities for ACEON® in January 2012 following the transfer from Servier’s
previous licensee. In late February 2012, we initiated enrollment in a Phase 3 trial for the first fixed-dose
combination product candidate from the perindopril franchise we acquired from Servier, which combines
perindopril arginine and amlodipine besylate (“FDC1”). The trial, named PATH (Perindopril Amlodipine for the
Treatment of Hypertension), is expected to enroll approximately 816 patients with hypertension to determine the
safety and efficacy of the fixed-dose combination versus either perindopril or amlodipine alone. The primary and
secondary endpoints are reduction in sitting diastolic and systolic blood pressure, respectively, from baseline
after six weeks of treatment. Based on regulatory interaction to date, if positive, this trial is expected to be the
only additional efficacy trial needed to complement the existing clinical data in support of the submission of an
application to the FDA seeking approval for this product candidate. Partial funding for the PATH trial will be
provided by Servier; the balance of study expenses, consisting primarily of costs generated by our contract
research organization, are expected to be paid by us over time from any profits generated by our ACEON® sales.

XOMA 3AB, a biodefense anti-botulism product candidate comprised of a combination of antibodies, was
developed through funding from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (“NIAID”) of the U.S.

1

National Institutes of Health (“NIH”). Enrollment has been completed in a Phase 1 clinical trial sponsored by
NIAID. In January 2012, we announced that we will complete NIAID biodefense contracts currently in place but
will not actively pursue future contracts. Should the government choose to acquire XOMA 3AB or other biodefense
products in the future, we expect to be able to provide these antibodies through an outside manufacturer.

We also have developed antibody product candidates with premier pharmaceutical companies including
Novartis AG (“Novartis”) and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”). Two antibodies developed
with Novartis, LFA102 and HCD122 (lucatumumab), are in Phase 1 and/or 2 clinical development by Novartis
for the potential treatment of breast or prostate cancer and hematological malignancies, respectively.

In January 2012, we implemented a restructuring designed to sharpen our focus on value-creating

opportunities led by gevokizumab and our antibody discovery and development capabilities. The restructuring
plan includes a reduction of our personnel by 84 positions, or 34%, of which approximately 50 were eliminated
immediately and the remainder will be eliminated by April 6, 2012. These staff reductions result primarily from
our decisions to utilize a contract manufacturing organization for Phase 3 and commercial antibody production
and to eliminate internal research functions that are non-differentiating or that can be obtained cost-effectively by
contract service providers.

Product Development Strategy

We are advancing a pipeline of antibody product candidates using our proven expertise, technologies and

capabilities from antibody discovery through product development. We seek to expand our pipeline by
developing additional proprietary products and technologies and by entering into licensing and collaborative
arrangements with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. The principal elements of our strategy are to:

•

Focus on advancing gevokizumab, our lead product candidate. Using our proprietary antibody
technologies, capabilities and expertise, we discovered gevokizumab, an antibody that inhibits IL-1
beta. Gevokizumab has the potential to address the underlying inflammatory causes of a wide range of
unmet medical needs by targeting IL-1 beta, a cytokine that triggers inflammatory pathways in the
body.

In December 2010, we entered into an agreement with Servier to jointly develop and commercialize
gevokizumab in multiple indications, which provided for a non-refundable upfront payment of $15.0
million that we received in January 2011. In connection with this agreement, Servier is funding the first
$50.0 million of gevokizumab global clinical development and chemistry and manufacturing controls
(“CMC”) expenses and 50% of further expenses for the Behçet’s uveitis indication. Servier has agreed
to include the NIU Phase 3 trial discussed below under the terms of the collaboration agreement for
Behçet’s uveitis as long as the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) enables the results of the trial to
be included in regulatory submissions in the European Union (“EU”).
In January 2011, we received the full €15.0 million advance allowed under our loan agreement with
Servier dated December 30, 2010, converting to U.S. dollar proceeds of approximately $19.5 million at
the date of funding.

In March 2011, we announced our Phase 2b trial of gevokizumab in 421 Type 2 diabetes patients did
not achieve the primary endpoint of reduction in hemoglobin A1c (“HbA1c”) after six monthly
treatments with gevokizumab compared to placebo. However, significant decreases in C-reactive
protein (“CRP”), a biomarker for the risk of heart attack, stroke and other cardiovascular and
inflammatory diseases, were observed in all dose groups versus placebo. Results from a Phase 2a
gevokizumab trial in 74 patients with Type 2 diabetes, announced in June 2011, were consistent with
the Phase 2b results. Gevokizumab was well tolerated in these trials, with no significant differences in
adverse events between gevokizumab and placebo and no serious drug-related adverse events.

Servier and we are implementing an expanded gevokizumab clinical development plan. The plan
includes a global Phase 3 trial in active and controlled NIU involving the intermediate and/or posterior

2

segments of the eye, including Behçet’s uveitis, and a Phase 3 trial outside the U.S. in Behçet’s uveitis.
We expect these trials will be designed to meet the FDA requirement for ophthalmic indications that at
least 300 patients be treated for at least six months and 100 patients for 1 year at the to-be-marketed
dose. We anticipate we will have preliminary top-line results from the first NIU Phase 3 trial
approximately 18 to 24 months after we enroll our first patient. Based upon the timing of anticipated
regulatory interactions, we anticipate initiating the first NIU Phase 3 trial in the second quarter of 2012.

In addition, we announced a Phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical program to identify additional
conditions that may respond to treatment with gevokizumab. The program will study gevokizumab in
three separate diseases that have demonstrated IL-1 beta involvement. The first study in moderate to
severe inflammatory acne began enrolling patients in December 2011. During the second quarter of
2012, we are planning to initiate enrollment in the second clinical study in this program, which will
study gevokizumab in patients with erosive osteoarthritis of the hand. Later in 2012, we plan to
announce the final proof-of-concept indication. Based upon our discussions, we believe Servier intends
to advance gevokizumab into Phase 2 development for cardiovascular disease in 2012.

Advance our proprietary preclinical pipeline candidates and generate revenues from our proprietary
technologies. We will continue to develop our proprietary preclinical pipeline, primarily focusing on
the development of allosteric modulating monoclonal antibodies. Our first program, which targets the
insulin receptor, has generated two new classes of fully human monoclonal antibodies that activate
(XMetA) or sensitize (XMetS) the insulin receptor in vivo. XMetA and XMetS represent the potential
for distinct, new therapeutic approaches to the treatment of patients with diabetes. Separate studies of
XMetA and XMetS demonstrated they reduced fasting blood glucose levels and improved glucose
tolerance in mouse models of diabetes.

Historically, we have established technology collaborations with several companies to provide access
to multiple XOMA proprietary antibody discovery and optimization technologies. In addition, we have
licensed our BCE technology to more than 60 companies in exchange for license, milestone and other
fees, royalties and complementary technologies; a number of licensed product candidates are in clinical
development. We believe we can continue to generate significant revenue from our proprietary
technologies and programs in the future.

Complete current biodefense contracts. To date, we have been awarded four contracts, totaling up to
approximately $120 million, from NIAID to support development of XOMA 3AB and additional
product candidates for the treatment of botulism poisoning. In addition, our biodefense programs
included two subcontracts from SRI International totaling $4.3 million, funded through NIAID, for the
development of antibodies to neutralize H1N1 and H5N1 influenza viruses and the virus that causes
severe acute respiratory syndrome (“SARS”).

NIAID is conducting a Phase 1 trial of XOMA 3AB, a novel formulation of three antibodies designed
to prevent and treat botulism poisoning. This double-blind, dose-escalation study in approximately 24
healthy volunteers is designed to assess the safety and tolerability and determine the pharmacokinetic
profile, of XOMA 3AB.

In January 2012, we announced that we will complete NIAID biodefense contracts currently in place
but will not actively pursue future contracts. Should the government choose to acquire XOMA 3AB or
other biodefense products in the future, we expect to be able to provide these antibodies through an
outside manufacturer.

Commercialization Strategy

We are committed to establishing XOMA as a commercial organization in the U.S. in order to derive
appropriate value from our product discovery and development programs. In January 2012, we announced we
had acquired U.S. rights, and we assumed commercialization activities, for the branded antihypertensive product
ACEON® (perindopril erbumine), an FDA-approved ACE inhibitor, from Servier’s previous U.S. licensee. In

3

addition to ACEON®, the acquisition includes a portfolio of three fixed-dose combination product candidates
where perindopril is combined with other active ingredient(s), such as a calcium channel blocker.

ACEON® is subject to competition from multiple approved generic perindopril erbumine products, and our

commercialization activities are limited to distribution and post marketing regulatory responsibilities as the
current holder of the ACEON® New Drug Application, or NDA. We have contracted with third parties to
manufacture and distribute ACEON®.

Proprietary Products

As part of our strategy, we are focusing our technology and resources on advancing our emerging

proprietary pipeline. Below is a summary of our proprietary products:

•

•

•

Gevokizumab is a potent monoclonal antibody with the potential to improve the treatment of patients
with a wide variety of inflammatory diseases. Gevokizumab binds strongly to IL-1 beta, a
pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the development of NIU and Behçet’s uveitis,
moderate-to-severe inflammatory acne, erosive osteoarthritis of the hand, cardiovascular disease,
rheumatoid arthritis, gout and other diseases. By binding to IL-1 beta, gevokizumab inhibits the
activation of the IL-1 receptor, thereby preventing the cellular signaling events that produce
inflammation. Gevokizumab is a humanized IgG2 antibody. Based on its binding properties, specificity
for IL-1 beta and its half-life (the time it takes for the amount administered to be reduced by one-half)
in the body, gevokizumab may provide convenient dosing of once per month or less frequently.

In December 2010, we entered into an agreement with Servier to jointly develop and commercialize
gevokizumab in multiple indications.

XOMA Metabolic Activating and Sensitizing Antibodies. Insulin receptor-activating antibodies,
such as XMetA, are designed to provide long-acting insulin-like activity to diabetic patients who
cannot make sufficient insulin, potentially reducing the number of insulin injections needed to control
their blood glucose levels. Insulin receptor-sensitizing antibodies, such as XMetS, are designed to
reduce insulin resistance and could enable diabetic patients to use their own insulin more effectively to
control blood glucose levels.

Studies presented on XMetA demonstrated it reduced fasting blood glucose levels and improved
glucose tolerance in a mouse model of diabetes. After six weeks of treatment, mice treated with
XMetA had a statistically significant reduction in HbA1c levels, a standard measure of average blood
glucose levels over time, compared to the control mice. In addition, there was a statistically significant
reduction in elevated non-HDL cholesterol levels.

We studied XMetS in a mouse model of obesity-induced insulin resistance. In mice treated with
XMetS, we saw enhanced insulin sensitivity and statistically significant improvements in fasting blood
glucose levels and glucose tolerance as compared to the control mice. In addition, there was a
statistically significant reduction in elevated non-HDL cholesterol levels.

XOMA 3AB is a multi-antibody product designed to neutralize the most potent of the botulinum
toxins, Type A, which causes paralysis and is a bioterrorism threat. Our anti-botulism program also
includes additional product candidates and is the first of its kind to combine multiple human antibodies
in each product candidate to target a broad spectrum of the most toxic botulinum toxins, including the
three most toxic serotypes, Types A, B and E. The antibodies are designed to bind to each toxin and
enhance the clearance of the toxin from the body. The use of multiple antibodies increases the
likelihood of clearing the harmful toxins by providing specific protection against each toxin type. In
contrast to existing agents that treat botulism, XOMA uses advanced human monoclonal antibody
technologies in an effort to achieve superior safety, potency and efficacy, and avoid life-threatening
immune reactions associated with animal-derived products. XOMA 3AB is currently in a Phase 1 study
funded and conducted by NIAID.

Preclinical Product Pipeline: We are pursuing additional opportunities to further broaden our
preclinical product pipeline. These include internal discovery programs, product development
collaborations with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and evaluation of product
in-licensing, in-kind product trades and acquisition opportunities.

Partnership Products

Historically, we have provided research and development collaboration services for world-class
organizations, such as Novartis, Takeda, and Schering Plough Research Institute, a division of Schering
Corporation, now a subsidiary of Merck & Co. (referred to herein as “Merck/Schering-Plough”), in pursuit of
new antibody products. In more recent years, we have evolved our business focus from a service provider model
to a proprietary product development model. However, we will continue to capitalize on collaborative
partnership arrangements as opportunities arise. Below is a list of such collaborations:

•

•

•

Therapeutic Antibodies with Takeda: Since 2006, Takeda has been a collaboration partner for
therapeutic monoclonal antibody discovery and development against multiple targets selected by them.
In February 2009, we expanded our existing collaboration to provide Takeda with access to multiple
antibody technologies, including a suite of research and development technologies and integrated
information and data management systems. We may receive potential milestones and royalties on sales
of antibody products in the future.

Therapeutic Antibodies with Novartis: In November 2008, we restructured our product development
collaboration with Novartis. Under the restructured agreement, Novartis received control over the two
ongoing programs, HCD122 and LFA102, under the original product development collaboration
entered into in 2004 with Novartis (then Chiron Corporation). We may, in the future, receive
milestones and double-digit royalty rates for the programs and options to develop or receive royalties
from four additional programs.

Therapeutic Antibodies with Merck/Schering- Plough: Merck/Schering-Plough has been a
collaboration partner since 2006 for therapeutic monoclonal antibody discovery and development
against multiple targets selected by them. In January 2011, we successfully completed the services we
had agreed to perform under the collaboration agreement with Merck/Schering-Plough.

Technologies and Technology Licenses

We have a unique set of antibody discovery, optimization and development technologies, including:

•

ADAPT™ (Antibody Discovery Advanced Platform Technologies): proprietary phage display libraries
integrated with yeast and mammalian display to enable antibody discovery;

• ModulX™: technology that enables positive and negative modulation of biological pathways using a

new class of monoclonal antibodies called allosterically modulating antibodies; and

•

OptimX™: technologies used for optimizing biophysical properties of antibodies, including affinity,
immunogenicity, stability and manufacturability.

Technology Licenses

Below is a summary of certain proprietary technologies owned by us and available for licensing to other

companies:

•

Antibody discovery technologies: We use human antibody phage display libraries, integrated with
yeast and mammalian display (“ADAPT™ Integrated Display”), in our discovery of therapeutic
candidates, and we offer access to this platform, including novel phage libraries developed internally,
as part of our collaboration business. We believe access to ADAPT™ Integrated Display offers a
number of benefits to us and our collaboration partners, because it enables us to combine the diversity

5

of phage libraries with accelerated discovery due to rapid IgG reformatting and FACS-based screening
using yeast and mammalian display. This increases the probability of technical and business success in
finding rare and unique functional antibodies directed to targets of interest.

• ModulX™ technology: ModulX™ technology allows modulation of biological pathways using

monoclonal antibodies and offers insights into regulation of signaling pathways, homeostatic control,
and disease biology. Using ModulX™, XOMA is generating a new class of product candidates with
novel mechanisms of action that specifically alter the kinetics of interaction between molecular
constituents (e.g. receptor-ligand). ModulX™ technology enables expanded target and therapeutic
options, and offers a unique approach in the treatment of disease.

•

OptimX™ technologies:

Human Engineering™: HE™ is a proprietary humanization technology that allows modification
of non-human monoclonal antibodies to reduce or eliminate detectable immunogenicity and make
them suitable for medical purposes in humans. The technology uses a unique method developed
by us, based on analysis of the conserved structure-function relationships among antibodies. The
method defines which residues in a non-human variable region are candidates to be modified. The
result is a HE™ antibody with preserved antigen binding, structure and function and with
eliminated or greatly reduced immunogenicity. HE™ technology was used in development of
gevokizumab and is used in the development of certain other antibody products.

Targeted Affinity Enhancement™ (“TAE™”): TAE™ is a proprietary technology involving
the assessment and guided substitution of amino acids in antibody variable regions, enabling
efficient optimization of antibody binding affinity and selectivity modulation. TAE™ generates a
comprehensive map of the effects of amino acid mutations in the CDR region likely to impact
binding. The technology is utilized by XOMA scientists and has been licensed to a number of our
collaborators.

•

Bacterial Cell Expression: The production or expression of antibodies using bacteria is an enabling
technology for the discovery and selection, as well as the development and manufacture, of
recombinant protein pharmaceuticals, including diagnostic and therapeutic antibodies for commercial
purposes. Genetically engineered bacteria are used in the recombinant expression of target proteins for
biopharmaceutical research and development, primarily due to the relative simplicity of gene
expression in bacteria, as well as many years of experience culturing such species as E. coli in
laboratories and manufacturing facilities. Our scientists have developed bacterial expression
technologies for producing antibodies and other recombinant protein products.

We have granted more than 60 licenses to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to use our
patented and proprietary technologies relating to bacterial expression of recombinant pharmaceutical
products. Bacterial antibody expression is also a key technology used in multiple systems for high-
throughput screening of antibody domains. Expression of antibodies by phage display technology, for
example, depends upon the expression and secretion of antibody domains from bacteria as properly
folded, functional proteins.

Many licensees of our bacterial cell expression technology have developed, or are in the process of
developing, antibodies for which we may be entitled to future milestone payments and royalties on
product sales. Under the terms of our license agreement with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), signed in 2007, we
received an up-front cash payment of $30 million and from 2009 through 2011; we received milestone
payments relating to four undisclosed product candidates. We also may be eligible for additional
milestone payments aggregating up to $4.9 million relating to these four product candidates and low
single-digit royalties on future sales of all products subject to this license. In addition, we may receive
potential milestone payments aggregating up to $1.7 million for each additional qualifying product
candidate. Our right to milestone payments expires on the later of the expiration of the last-to-expire
licensed patent or the tenth anniversary of the effective date. Our right to royalties expires upon the
expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent.

Financial and Legal Arrangements of Product Collaborations, Licensing and Other Arrangements

Collaboration and Licensing Agreements

Servier — Gevokizumab

We have entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Servier to jointly develop and

commercialize gevokizumab in multiple indications, which provided a non-refundable upfront payment of $15
million, which we received in January 2011. Under the terms of the agreement, Servier has worldwide rights to
cardiovascular disease and diabetes indications and rights outside the U.S. and Japan to all other indications,
including Behçet’s uveitis and other inflammatory and oncology indications. XOMA retains development and
commercialization rights in the U.S. and Japan for all indications (including NIU, Behçet’s uveitis and other
inflammatory disease and oncology indications) except cardiovascular disease and diabetes. XOMA also has an
option to reacquire rights to cardiovascular disease and diabetes indications from Servier in these territories (the
“Cardiometabolic Indications Option”). Should we exercise the Cardiometabolic Indications Option, we will be
required to pay Servier an option fee and partially reimburse their incurred development expenses. Each party
has the right in certain circumstances to pursue development in indications not specified in the agreement, and in
such event the other party will have the option to participate in such development in certain circumstances,
including reimbursement of a portion of the developing party’s expenses.

Under this agreement, Servier will fully fund activities to advance the global clinical development and
future commercialization of gevokizumab in cardiovascular-related diseases and diabetes. Also, Servier will fund
$50 million of future gevokizumab global clinical development and CMC expenses and 50% of further expenses
for the Behçet’s uveitis indication. Servier has agreed to include the NIU Phase 3 trial under the terms of the
collaboration agreement for Behçet’s uveitis discussed above as long as the EMA enables the results of the trial
to be included in regulatory submissions in the EU.

In addition, under the agreement, we are eligible to receive a combination of Euro- and U.S. Dollar
(“USD”)-denominated, development and sales milestones for multiple indications aggregating to a potential
maximum of approximately $460 million when converted using the December 31, 2011, Euro to USD exchange
rate (the “12/31/11 Exchange Rate”), if XOMA reacquires cardiovascular and/or diabetes rights in the U.S. and

8

Japan. If XOMA does not reacquire these rights, then the milestone payments aggregate to a potential maximum
of approximately $800 million converted using the 12/31/11 Exchange Rate. Servier’s obligation to pay
development and commercialization milestones will continue for so long as Servier is developing or selling
products under the agreement.

We also are eligible to receive royalties on gevokizumab sales, which are tiered based on sales levels and

range from a mid-single digit to up to a mid-teens percentage rate. Our right to royalties with respect to a
particular product and country will continue for so long as such product is sold in such country.

The collaboration will be carried out and managed by committees mutually established by the parties. In

general, in the event of any disputes, each party will have decision-making authority over matters relating to its
areas of responsibility and territory, but neither party will have unilateral decision-making rights if the decision
would have a material adverse impact on the other party’s rights in its territory. The agreement contains
customary termination rights relating to matters such as material breach by either party, safety issues and patents.
Servier also has a unilateral right to terminate the agreement on a country-by-country basis or in its entirety on
six months’ notice.

We also have entered into a loan agreement with Servier, which provided for an advance of up to €15.0
million. The loan was fully funded in January 2011, with the proceeds converting to approximately $19.5 million
at the date of funding. The loan is secured by an interest in XOMA’s intellectual property rights to all
gevokizumab indications worldwide, excluding certain rights in the U.S. and Japan. Interest is calculated at a
floating rate based on a Euro Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) and is subject to a cap. The interest rate is
reset semi-annually in January and July of each year. The interest rate for the initial interest period was 3.22%.
The interest rate was reset to 3.83% for the six-month period from July 2011 through January 2012 and 3.54%
for the six-month period from January 2012 through July 2012. Interest is payable semi-annually; however, the
loan agreement provides for a deferral of interest payments over a period specified in the agreement. During the
deferral period, accrued interest will be added to the outstanding principal amount for the purpose of interest
calculation for the next six-month interest period. On the repayment commencement date, all unpaid and accrued
interest shall be paid to Servier, and thereafter, all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the end
of each six-month period. The loan matures in 2016; however, after a specified period prior to final maturity, the
loan is to be repaid (i) at Servier’s option, by applying up to a significant percentage of any milestone or royalty
payments owed by Servier under our collaboration agreement and (ii) using a significant percentage of any
upfront, milestone or royalty payments we receive from any third-party collaboration or development partner for
rights to gevokizumab in the U.S. and/or Japan. In addition, the loan becomes immediately due and payable upon
certain customary events of default. At December 31, 2011, the outstanding principal balance under this loan was
$19.4 million using the 12/31/11 Exchange Rate. Refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations for further information regarding our loan agreement with Servier.

Servier—U.S. Perindopril Franchise

Effective January 11, 2012, we entered into an amended and restated agreement with Servier for the U.S.

commercialization rights to ACEON® (perindopril erbumine), an ACE inhibitor, and the development and
commercialization in the U.S. of up to three product candidates combining perindopril with other cardiovascular
drugs in fixed-dose combinations, or FDCs. This agreement, together with a related trademark license agreement,
provides us with exclusive U.S. rights to ACEON® and the first FDC product candidate, which combines
perindopril arginine and amlodipine besylate, a calcium channel blocker, and options on two additional FDC
product candidates. Under the arrangement, Servier is required to provide relevant data, patent rights and
know-how to us, and we are required to use diligent efforts to (i) maintain the ACEON® marketing approval and
commercialize ACEON® in a manner intended to maintain sales for a period of three years, and (ii) develop and
commercialize the first FDC product candidate and, if our options are exercised, the additional FDC product
candidates. The arrangement also provides that Servier will supply to us, and we will purchase exclusively from
Servier, the active ingredients in ACEON® and the FDC product candidates, in some cases for a limited period.

9

In connection with this arrangement, we paid a $1.5 million license fee to Servier in the third quarter of
2010. We also are required to pay a royalty on ACEON® sales at a rate that is tiered based on sales levels and
ranges from a mid-single digit to a mid-teen percentage rate. If approved, we also will pay a royalty on sales of
the FDC product candidates in the mid-teen percentage rate. The FDC royalty rate is subject to reduction in the
event of generic competition or if other intellectual property rights are required. We may be required to pay the
following milestones: development milestones aggregating $8.5 million (assuming we exercise our options on
the additional FDCs) and sales milestones of up to an aggregate $15.1 million, in each case for all of the FDC
product candidates. We also may be required to make certain additional payments if the FDC product candidates
receive FDA approval but certain minimum sales levels are not reached. We generally will be responsible for our
development and commercialization expenses, but Servier has agreed to partially fund development of the first
FDC product candidate, FDC1.

By its terms, the arrangement, including our obligation to pay royalties and/or development and sales
milestones, will continue until the later of July 2018 or the expiration of the last-to-expire Servier patent licensed
to us under the arrangement, unless terminated earlier. The agreement contains customary termination rights
relating to matters, such as material breach by either party, insolvency of either party or safety issues. Each party
also has the right to terminate the arrangement if the first FDC product candidate does not receive FDA approval
by December 31, 2014. Servier also has the right to terminate the arrangement if certain aspects of our
commercialization strategy are not successful and Servier does not consent to an alternative strategy or, as to the
FDC product candidates, if we breach our obligations to certain of our service providers.

NIAID

In March 2005, we were awarded a $15 million competitive bid contract from NIAID to develop three anti-

botulinum neurotoxin monoclonal antibodies. Under this contract, we created production cell lines using our
proprietary antibody expression systems, built Master and Manufacturer’s Working Cell Banks, developed
production processes and produced initial quantities of the three antibodies. The contract was performed over an
18-month period and was fully funded with Federal funds from NIAID under Contract No.
HHSN266200500004C (“NIAID 1”). Final acceptance of the project was received in October 2006.

In July 2006, we were awarded a $16.3 million NIAID contract under Contract No. HHSN266200600008C/

N01-Al-60008 (“NIAID 2”) to produce monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of botulism to protect United
States citizens against the harmful effects of botulinum neurotoxins used in bioterrorism. Under this contract, we
created and produced XOMA 3AB, an innovative injectable product comprised of three anti-type A botulinum
neurotoxin monoclonal antibodies. This work was complete in the third quarter of 2010.

In September 2008, we were awarded a third NIAID contract for $65 million under Contract No.

HHSN272200800028C (“NIAID 3”) to continue development of our anti-botulinum antibody product candidates,
including XOMA 3AB and additional product candidates. As part of the contract, we have developed, evaluated
and produced the clinical supplies to support an IND filing with the FDA for XOMA 3AB and have conducted
preclinical studies required to support human clinical trials. In May 2011, NIAID informed us that it was
initiating a Phase 1 trial of XOMA 3AB.

In October 2011, we announced we had been awarded a fourth NIAID contract for up to $28.0 million over
five years under Contract No. HHSN 272201100031C (“NIAID 4”) to develop broad-spectrum antitoxins for the
treatment of human botulism poisoning.

In January 2012, we announced that we will complete NIAID biodefense contracts currently in place but

will not actively pursue future contracts. Should the government choose to acquire XOMA 3AB or other
biodefense products in the future, we expect to be able to provide these antibodies through an outside
manufacturer.

10

SRI International

In the third quarter of 2009, we began work on two biodefense subcontract awards from SRI International,

including a $2.1 million award to develop novel antibody drugs against the virus that causes SARS and a $2.2
million award to develop a novel antibody, known as F10, that has been shown to neutralize group 1 influenza A
viruses, including the H1N1 and H5N1 strains. The subcontract awards were funded through NIAID. In
September 2011, we successfully completed the contract services we had agreed to perform under the
subcontract awards from SRI International.

Takeda

In November 2006, we entered into a fully funded collaboration agreement with Takeda for therapeutic

monoclonal antibody discovery and development under which we agreed to discover and optimize therapeutic
antibodies against multiple targets selected by Takeda. Takeda agreed to make up-front, annual maintenance and
milestone payments to us, fund our research and development and manufacturing activities for preclinical and
early clinical studies and pay royalties on sales of products resulting from the collaboration. Takeda is
responsible for clinical trials and commercialization of drugs after an IND submission and is granted the right to
manufacture once a product enters into Phase 2 clinical trials. We have completed a technology transfer and do
not expect to perform any further research and development services under this program. From 2009 through
2011, we received milestone payments relating to one currently active program.

Under the terms of this agreement, we may receive milestone payments aggregating up to $19.0 million
relating to one undisclosed product candidate and low single-digit royalties on future sales of all products subject
to this license. In addition, in the event Takeda were to develop additional future qualifying product candidates
under the terms of our agreement, we would be eligible for milestone payments aggregating up to $20.75 million
for each such qualifying product candidate. Our right to milestone payments expires on the later of the receipt of
payment from Takeda of the last amount to be paid under the agreement or the cessation of all research and
development activities with respect to all program antibodies, collaboration targets and/or collaboration products.
Our right to royalties expires on the later of 13.5 years from the first commercial sale of each royalty-bearing
discovery product or the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent.

In February 2009, we expanded our existing collaboration to provide Takeda with access to multiple
antibody technologies, including a suite of research and development technologies and integrated information
and data management systems. We may receive milestones of up to $3.25 million per discovery product
candidate and low single-digit royalties on future sales of all antibody products subject to this license. Our right
to milestone payments expires on the later of the receipt of payment from Takeda of the last amount to be paid
under the agreement or the cessation of all research and development activities with respect to all program
antibodies, collaboration targets and/or collaboration products. Our right to royalties expires on the later of 10
years from the first commercial sale of such royalty-bearing discovery product, or the expiration of the
last-to-expire licensed patent.

Novartis

In November 2008, we restructured our product development collaboration with Novartis, which involved

six development programs including the HCD122 program. Novartis is recruiting patients for a Phase 1b
follicular lymphoma trial using HCD122 (lucatumumab), a fully human anti-CD40 antagonist antibody
malignancies. The antibody has a dual mechanism of action that involves inhibition of CD40-ligand mediated
growth and survival while recruiting immune effector cells to kill CD40-expressing tumor cells through a process
known as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). CD40, a member of the tumor necrosis factor, or
TNF, family of antigens, is a cell surface antigen expressed in B-cell malignancies and involved in a broad
variety of immune and inflammatory responses. Novartis has initiated a Phase 1 trial of LFA102, a HE™
antibody to prolactin receptor, in patients with metastatic breast cancer or hormone refractory prostate cancer.

11

Under the restructured agreement, Novartis made a payment to us of $6.2 million in cash; reduced our
existing debt by $7.5 million; will fully fund all future research and development expenses; may pay potential
milestones of up to $14.0 million and royalty rates ranging from 10% to 20% for two ongoing product programs,
HCD122 and LFA102; and has provided us with options to develop or receive royalties on four additional
programs. In exchange, Novartis has control over the HCD122 and LFA102 programs, as well as the right to
expand the development of these programs into additional indications outside of oncology. As part of the
agreement, Novartis paid us for all project costs incurred after July 1, 2008. Our right to milestone payments
expires at such time as no collaboration product or former collaboration product is being developed or
commercialized anywhere in the world and no royalty-style payments on these products are due. Our right to
royalty-style payments expires on the later of the expiration of any licensed patent covering each product or 20
years from the launch of each product that is produced from a cell line provided to Novartis by XOMA.

The collaboration between XOMA and Novartis (then Chiron Corporation) began in 2004 with the signing
of an exclusive, worldwide, multi-product agreement to develop and commercialize multiple antibody products
for the treatment of cancer. We shared expenses and revenue, generally on a 70-30 basis, with our share being 30
percent. Financial terms included initial payments to us in 2004 totaling $10.0 million and a note agreement,
secured by our interest in the collaboration, to fund up to 75 percent of our share of expenses beginning in 2005.
The secured note agreement with Novartis, which was executed in May 2005, is due and payable in full in June
2015. At December 31, 2011, the outstanding principal balance under this note agreement totaled $14.0 million,
and pursuant to the terms of the arrangement as restructured in November 2008, we will not make any additional
borrowings on the Novartis note. In the first quarter of 2007, the mutual obligations of XOMA and Novartis to
work together on an exclusive basis in oncology expired, except with respect to existing collaborative product
development projects.

In December 2008, we entered into a Manufacturing and Technology Transfer Agreement with Novartis,

effective July 1, 2008. Under this agreement, XOMA was engaged by Novartis to perform research and
development, process development, manufacturing and technology transfer activities with respect to the ongoing
product programs now controlled by Novartis under the restructured product development collaboration. The
work performed by XOMA under this agreement, which was fully funded by Novartis, was completed in the
third quarter of 2009.

Arana

In September 2009, we entered into an antibody discovery collaboration with Arana Therapeutics Limited

(“Arana”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cephalon, Inc., now Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., involving
multiple proprietary XOMA antibody research and development technologies, including a new antibody phage
display library and a suite of integrated information and data management systems. Arana agreed to pay us a fee
of $6.0 million, of which we received $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2009 and $2.0 million in the third
quarter of 2010. Also, we may be entitled to future milestone payments, aggregating up to $3.0 million per
product, and low single-digit royalties on product sales. Our right to milestone payments expires on the later of
the receipt of payment from Arana of the last amount to be paid under the agreement, the cessation by Arana of
the use of all research and development technologies or the cessation by Arana of the exercise of the patent rights
granted to them. Our right to royalties expires five years from the first commercial sale of each royalty-bearing
product.

Kaketsuken

In October 2009, we entered into an antibody discovery collaboration with The Chemo-Sero-Therapeutic
Research Institute, a Japanese research foundation known as Kaketsuken, involving multiple proprietary XOMA
antibody research and development technologies, including a new antibody phage display library and a suite of
integrated information and data management systems. Kaketsuken agreed to pay us a fee of $8.0 million, of
which we received $6.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 and $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. Also,

12

we may be entitled to future milestone payments, aggregating up to $0.2 million per product, and low single-digit
royalties on product sales. Our right to milestone payments expires upon the receipt of payment from Kaketsuken
of the last amount to be paid pursuant to the agreement. Our right to royalties expires 15 years from the first
commercial sale of each royalty-bearing product.

AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“AVEO”)

In April 2006, we entered into an agreement with AVEO to utilize our HE™ technology to humanize
AV-299, AVEO’s novel anti-HGF antibody, under which AVEO paid us an up-front license fee and development
milestones. In addition, we will receive royalties on sales of products resulting from the agreement. Under this
agreement we created four Human Engineered™ versions of the original AV-299, all of which met design goals
and from which AVEO selected one as its lead development candidate. In September 2006, as a result of the
successful humanization of AV-299, we entered into a second agreement with AVEO to manufacture and supply
AV-299 in support of early clinical trials. Under the agreement, we created AV-299 production cell lines,
conducted process and assay development, and performed Good Manufacturing Practices (“cGMP”)
manufacturing activities. AVEO retains all development and commercialization rights to AV-299 and may be
required to pay XOMA annual maintenance fees, additional development milestone payments aggregating up to
$6.3 million and low single-digit royalties on product sales in the future. Our right to milestone payments expires
upon full satisfaction of all financial obligations of AVEO pursuant to the agreement. Our right to royalties
expires on the later of 15 years from the first commercial sale of each royalty-bearing product or the expiration of
the last-to-expire licensed patent.

In April 2007, Merck/Schering-Plough entered into a research, development and license agreement with

AVEO concerning AV-299 and other anti-HGF molecules. In connection with the aforementioned license
agreement, AVEO assigned its entire right, title and interest in, to and under its manufacturing agreement with
XOMA to Merck/Schering-Plough. In the third quarter of 2010, AVEO regained its worldwide rights from
Merck/Schering-Plough to develop and commercialize AV-299 and other anti-HGF molecules. In June 2011,
AVEO announced that patient enrollment has been completed in its ongoing Phase 2 trial evaluating AV-299
(ficlatuzumab) in combination with gefitinib as first-line therapy for patients with wild-type and mutant
epidermal growth factor receptor non-small cell lung cancer.

Merck/Schering-Plough

In May 2006, we entered into a fully funded collaboration agreement with Merck/Schering-Plough for
therapeutic monoclonal antibody discovery and development. Under the agreement, Merck/Schering-Plough
made up-front, annual maintenance and milestone payments to us, funded our research and development
activities related to the agreement and would have paid royalties on sales of products resulting from the
collaboration. During the collaboration, we discovered therapeutic antibodies against multiple targets selected by
Merck/Schering-Plough using multiple human antibody phage display libraries, optimized antibodies through
affinity maturation or other protein engineering, used our proprietary HE™ technology to humanize antibody
candidates generated by hybridoma techniques, performed preclinical studies to support regulatory filings,
developed cell lines and production processes and produced antibodies for initial clinical trials. Merck/Schering-
Plough selected the first target at the inception of the agreement and, in December 2006, exercised its right to
initiate the additional discovery and development programs. In January 2011, we completed the services we had
agreed to perform under the collaboration agreement with Merck/Schering-Plough.

UCB

Celltech Therapeutics Ltd., now UCB Celltech, a branch of UCB, utilized our bacterial cell expression
technology under license in the development of CIMZIA® for the treatment of moderate-to-severe Crohn’s
disease in adults who have not responded to conventional therapies and for the treatment of moderate-to-severe
rheumatoid arthritis in adults. The license provides for a low-single digit royalty on sales of CIMZIA® in

13

countries where our bacterial cell expression technology is patented, which includes the U.S. and Canada, until
the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent. In August 2010, we sold our royalty interest in CIMZIA® to
OrbiMed Advisors, LLC for gross proceeds of $4.0 million. We no longer receive royalties on sales of
CIMZIA®.

Genentech

In April 1996, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Genentech, Inc., a wholly-owned member of

the Roche Group (referred to herein as “Genentech”) for the development of RAPTIVA®. In March 2003, we
entered into amended agreements which called for us to share in the development costs and called for Genentech
to finance our share of development costs via a convertible subordinated loan. Under the loan agreement, upon
FDA approval of the product, which occurred in October 2003, we elected to pay $29.6 million of the
development loan in convertible preference shares, which were convertible into approximately 0.3 million shares
of common stock at a price of $116.25 per share. In April 2011, the convertible preference shares were converted
by Genentech. The $29.6 million liquidation preference associated with the convertible preference shares was
eliminated as a result of this conversion.

In January 2005, we restructured our arrangement with Genentech on RAPTIVA® under which we were

entitled to receive mid-single digit royalties on worldwide sales of RAPTIVA® in all indications. The previous
cost and profit sharing arrangement for RAPTIVA® in the U.S. was discontinued, and Genentech was
responsible for all operating and development costs associated with the product. In the first half of 2009,
RAPTIVA® was withdrawn from the commercial drug markets and royalties ceased.

Genentech utilized our bacterial cell expression technology under license in the development of

LUCENTIS® for the treatment of neovascular wet age-related macular degeneration. LUCENTIS® was approved
by the FDA in June 2006 and in the European Union in January 2007. We were entitled to receive a low-single
digit royalty on worldwide sales of LUCENTIS®. In the third quarter of 2009, we sold our LUCENTIS® royalty
interest to Genentech for $25 million, including royalty revenue from the second quarter of 2009. We no longer
receive royalties on sales of LUCENTIS®.

Financing Agreements

Outstanding Warrants

In December of 2011, we issued warrants in connection with a debt financing, which entitle the holder to

purchase up to an aggregate of 263,158 unregistered shares of XOMA common stock at an exercise price equal
to $1.14 per share, are immediately exercisable and will expire on December 30, 2016. In February of 2010, we
issued warrants to purchase 1,260,000 shares of XOMA’s common stock in connection with an underwritten
offering, which are exercisable beginning six months and one day after issuance and have a five-year term and an
exercise price of $10.50 per share. In June of 2009, we issued warrants to certain institutional investors as part of
a registered direct offering, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up to 347,826 shares of common
stock over a five year period beginning December 11, 2009 at an exercise price of $19.50 per share. As of
December 31, 2011, all of the foregoing warrants were outstanding.

ATM Agreements

In the third quarter of 2010, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2010 ATM
Agreement”), with Wm Smith & Co. and McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (the “Agents”), under which we could
sell shares of our common stock from time to time through the Agents, as our agents for the offer and sale of the
shares, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under our registration statement on
Form S-3 (File No. 333-148342) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 26,
2007 and declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2008. The Agents could sell the shares by any method
permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933,

14

as amended (the “Securities Act”), including without limitation sales made directly on The NASDAQ Global
Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock or to or through a market maker. The Agents
also could sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to our prior approval. We paid the Agents,
collectively, a commission equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of the sales price of all shares sold through them as
sales agents under the 2010 ATM Agreement. From the inception of the 2010 ATM Agreement through May of
2011, we sold a total of 7,560,862 shares of common stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of
$34.0 million, including 821,386 shares sold in 2011 for aggregate gross proceeds of $4.4 million. Total offering
expenses incurred related to sales under the 2010 ATM Agreement from inception to May of 2011 were $1.0
million, including $0.1 million incurred in 2011. In May of 2011, the 2010 ATM Agreement expired by its terms,
and there will be no further issuances under this facility.

On February 4, 2011, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2011 ATM

Agreement”), with McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (now known as MLV & Co. LLC, “MLV”), under which we
may sell shares of our common stock from time to time through MLV, as our agent for the offer and sale of the
shares, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under our registration statement on
Form S-3 (File No. 333-172197) filed with the SEC on February 11, 2011, and amended on March 10,
2011, June 3, 2011 and January 3, 2012, which was most recently declared effective by the SEC on January 17,
2012. MLV may sell the shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as
defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made directly on The NASDAQ
Global Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock or to or through a market maker.
MLV also may sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to our prior approval. We will pay
MLV a commission equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of the sales price of all shares sold through it as sales
agent under the 2011 ATM Agreement. From the inception of the 2011 ATM Agreement through December 31,
2011, we sold a total of 5,286,952 shares of common stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of
$11.3 million. Total offering expenses incurred related to sales under the 2011 ATM Agreement from inception
to December 31, 2011, were $0.3 million. Subsequent to December 31, 2011, through March 12, 2012, 2,285,375
additional shares of common stock were sold through MLV for aggregate gross proceeds of $3.3 million. Total
offering expenses related to these sales were approximately $0.1 million.

General Electric Capital Corporation Term Loan

In December 2011, we entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with General Electric Capital
Corporation (“GECC”), under which GECC agreed to make a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $10
million (the “Term Loan”) to XOMA (US) LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and upon
execution of the Loan Agreement, GECC funded the Term Loan. The Term Loan is guaranteed by the Company
and its two other principal subsidiaries, XOMA Ireland Limited and XOMA Technology Ltd. As security for
their obligations under the Loan Agreement, the Company, XOMA (US) LLC, XOMA Ireland Limited and
XOMA Technology Ltd. each granted a security interest pursuant to a guaranty, pledge and security agreement in
substantially all of their existing and after-acquired assets, excluding their intellectual property assets (such as
those relating to our gevokizumab and anti-botulism products). The proceeds of the Term Loan, after payment of
lender fees and expenses, were approximately $8.7 million, which we anticipate will be used for working capital
and general corporate purposes.

The Term Loan accrues interest at a fixed rate of 11.71% per annum. We are required to repay the principal

amount of the Term Loan over a period of 42 consecutive equal monthly installments of principal and accrued
interest, commencing on January 4, 2012, and thereafter on the first calendar day of each succeeding month. The
Term Loan matures and is due and payable in full on June 30, 2015, and at maturity of the Term Loan, we will
make an additional payment equal to 5% of the Term Loan (“Final Payment Fee”).

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and
negative covenants, including restrictions on the ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, make investments,
dispose of assets, enter into transactions with affiliates and amend existing material agreements, in each case

15

subject to various exceptions. In addition, the Loan Agreement contains customary events of default that entitle
GECC to cause any or all of the indebtedness under the Loan Agreement to become immediately due and
payable. The events of default include any event of default under a material agreement or certain other
indebtedness. Upon an event of default, the Term Loan and other obligations under the Loan Agreement will, at
the election of GECC, bear interest from and after the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of
default at a rate equal to the lesser of 5.0% above the stated rate of interest or the maximum rate allowed by law.

We may voluntarily prepay the Term Loan in full, but not in part, and any voluntary and certain mandatory
prepayments are subject to a prepayment premium of 3% in the first year of the loan, 2% in the second year and
1% thereafter, although mandatory prepayments in connection with entering into certain exclusive licenses,
granting certain negative pledges or incurring certain collaboration-related indebtedness will not be subject to
such prepayment premium. We will also be required to pay the Final Payment Fee in connection with any
voluntary or mandatory prepayment.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses currently include costs of personnel, supplies, facilities and
equipment, consultants, third-party costs and other expenses related to preclinical and clinical testing. In 2011,
our research and development expenses were $68.1 million compared with $77.4 million in 2010 and $58.1
million in 2009.

Our research and development activities can be divided into those related to our internal projects and those

related to collaborative and contract arrangements, which are reimbursed by our customers. In 2011, research and
development expenses relating to internal projects were $24.4 million compared with $52.0 million in 2010 and
$35.1 million in 2009. In 2011, research and development expenses related to collaborative and contract
arrangements were $43.7 million compared with $25.4 million in 2010 and $23.0 million in 2009. Refer to
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Research and
Development Expenses for further information regarding our research and development expenses.

Competition

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are subject to continuous and substantial technological
change. Competition in antibody-based technologies is intense and is expected to increase as new technologies
emerge and established biotechnology firms and large chemical and pharmaceutical companies continue to
advance in the field. A number of these large pharmaceutical and chemical companies have enhanced their
capabilities by entering into arrangements with or acquiring biotechnology companies or entering into business
combinations with other large pharmaceutical companies. Many of these companies have significantly greater
financial resources, larger research and development and marketing staffs and larger production facilities than
ours. Moreover, certain of these companies have extensive experience in undertaking preclinical testing and
human clinical trials. These factors may enable other companies to develop products and processes competitive
with or superior to ours. In addition, a significant amount of research in biotechnology is being carried out in
universities and other non-profit research organizations. These entities are becoming increasingly interested in
the commercial value of their work and may become more aggressive in seeking patent protection and licensing
arrangements. Furthermore, many companies and universities tend not to announce or disclose important
discoveries or development programs until their patent position is secure or, for other reasons, later. As a result,
we may not be able to track development of competitive products, particularly at the early stages. There can be
no assurance that developments by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or uncompetitive.

The ACE inhibitor market is highly genericized with all options being available generically. The number
one product within the ACE inhibitor category is lisinopril, formerly marketed by Astra-Zeneca Pharmaceuticals
LP under the brands ZESTRIL® or Prinivil®. ACE inhibitors represent the largest category of anti-hypertensive
medications and are considered a first-line treatment option by the majority of the medical guidelines. There are

16

multiple options in the fixed-dose combination market combining ACE inhibitors with diuretics, but there are
few options combining an ACE inhibitor with a calcium channel blocker. Current options with a calcium channel
blocker are benazepril/amlodipine, formerly marketed by Novartis Pharmaceuticals as Lotrel®, and trandolapril/
verapamil, formerly marketed by Abbot Laboratories as Tarka®.

ACE inhibitors are a segment of the larger Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System, or RAAS market. This
market is comprised of ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). Both classes act on the RAAS
in different ways to control blood pressure. The most successful of the ARBs is valsartan, trade name Diovan®,
which is marketed by Novartis. This compound, along with other ARBs, has been developed in multiple fixed-
dose combination products: with a diuretic, a calcium channel blocker (amlodipine) and as a triple combining all
three. Our perindopril fixed dose combination franchise, if approved, will compete directly with fixed-dose
combinations containing an ACE inhibitor and secondarily with fixed-dose combinations containing an ARB.

Without limiting the foregoing, we are aware of the following competitors for the products and candidates

shown in the table below. This table is not intended to be representative of all existing competitors in the market:

Our products are subject to comprehensive preclinical and clinical testing requirements and to approval
processes by the FDA and by similar authorities in other countries. Our products primarily are regulated on a
product-by-product basis under the United States Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and Section 351(a) of the Public
Health Service Act. Most of our human therapeutic products are or will be classified as biological products (also
referred to as biologics), and some are classified as drugs. Approval of a biologic or drug for commercialization
requires licensure of the product and the manufacturing facilities. The review of therapeutic biological products
and drugs is carried out in the U.S. by the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.

The FDA regulatory process is carried out in several phases. Prior to beginning human clinical testing of a
proposed new biological product, an IND is filed with the FDA. This document contains scientific information
on the proposed product, including results of testing of the product in animal and laboratory models. Also
included is information on manufacturing the product and studies on toxicity in animals and a clinical protocol
outlining the initial investigation in humans.

The initial stage of clinical testing, Phase 1, ordinarily encompasses safety, pharmacokinetic and

pharmacodynamic evaluations. Phase 2 testing encompasses investigation in specific disease states designed to
provide preliminary efficacy data and additional information on safety. Phase 3 studies are designed to further

17

establish clinical safety and efficacy and to provide information allowing proper labeling of the product
following approval. Phase 3 studies are most commonly multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled trials in
which rigorous statistical methodology is applied to clinical results. Other designs also may be appropriate in
specific circumstances.

Following completion of clinical trials, a Biologics Licensing Application (“BLA”), in the case of a

biological product, or a New Drug Application (“NDA”), in the case of a drug, is submitted to the FDA to
request marketing approval. Internal FDA committees are formed to evaluate the application, including scientific
background information, animal and laboratory efficacy studies, toxicology, manufacturing facility and clinical
data. During the review process, a dialogue between the FDA and the applicant is established in which FDA
raises questions, and the applicant submits additional information. During the final stages of the approval
process, the FDA generally requests presentation of clinical or other data before an FDA advisory committee, at
which point, some or all of such data may become available. Also, during the later stages of review, the FDA
conducts an inspection of the manufacturing facility to establish that the product is made in conformity with good
manufacturing practice. If all outstanding issues are resolved satisfactorily and labeling is established, the FDA
issues a license for the product and for the manufacturing facility, thereby authorizing commercial distribution.

The FDA and other regulatory agencies have substantial discretion in both the product approval process and

the manufacturing approval process. It is not possible to predict at what point, or whether, the FDA or other
regulatory agencies will be satisfied with our submissions or whether the FDA or other regulatory agencies will
raise questions that may delay or preclude product approval or manufacturing facility approval. In light of this
discretion and the complexities of the scientific, medical and regulatory environment, our interpretation or
understanding of the FDA’s or other regulatory agencies’ requirements, guidelines or expectations may prove
incorrect, which could also further delay or increase the cost of the approval process. As additional clinical data
is accumulated, it will be submitted to the FDA and other regulatory agencies, as appropriate, and may have a
material impact on the approval process. Given that regulatory review is an interactive and continuous process,
we have adopted a policy of limiting announcements and comments upon the specific details of the ongoing
regulatory review of our products, subject to our obligations under the securities laws, until definitive action is
taken. There can be no assurance any of the products we have under development will be developed successfully,
obtain the requisite regulatory approval or be successfully manufactured or marketed.

In Europe, most of our human therapeutic products are or will be classified as biological medicinal products

which are assessed through a centralized procedure by the EMA. The EMA coordinates the evaluation and
supervision of medicinal products throughout the European Union and the European Economic Area. The
assessment of the Marketing Authorization Application (“MA”) is carried out by a Rapporteur and a
Co-Rapporteur appointed by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”), which is the
expert scientific committee of the EMA.

The Rapporteur and Co-Rapporteur are drawn from the CHMP membership representing member states of

the European Union. In addition to their responsibility for undertaking scientific assessments of an application
for a MA, the Rapporteur and the Co-Rapporteur liaise with the applicant on behalf of the CHMP in an effort to
provide answers to queries raised by the CHMP. Their assessment report(s) is circulated to and considered by the
full CHMP membership, leading to the production ultimately of a CHMP opinion, which is transmitted to the
applicant and the European Commission. The final decision on the grant of a MA is made by the European
Commission as the licensing authority of the European Community (“Community”). Under Community law, a
positive decision issued by the European Commission represents the grant of a MA. Such an authorization allows
a medicinal product to be placed on the European market. Upon the grant of an MA in the European Union,
certain member states require pricing approval before the product can be placed into commercial distribution.

Under Community law, the applicant may request grant of a MA under exceptional circumstances, if
comprehensive data on the efficacy and safety of the drug, under normal conditions of use cannot be provided
because its intended indications are encountered so rarely (such as in the case of a medicinal product intended for
treating an orphan disease) that comprehensive evidence cannot reasonably be collected, the present state of

18

scientific knowledge will not allow comprehensive information to be collected, or it would be against generally
accepted medical ethics to collect comprehensive information. The Rapporteur, Co-Rapporteur and the other
CHMP members will assess the justification/data submitted for exceptional circumstances as part of the overall
assessment of the benefit/risk of the application. It is up to the CHMP, during the review, to ultimately decide on
whether grant of a MA under exceptional circumstances is justified on the evidence before them. Approval under
exceptional circumstances is subject to a requirement for specific procedures related to safety and results of its
use and is reviewed annually to reassess the risk-benefit balance of the product. Once approval is granted, the
product can be marketed under the single European MA in all member states of the European Union and the
European Economic Area. Consistent with the single MA, the labeling for Europe is identical throughout all
member states, except that all labeling must be translated into the local language of the country of intended
importation and in relation to the content of the so called “blue box” on the outer packaging in which locally
required information may be inserted.

Orphan drugs are those intended for use in rare diseases or conditions. As a result of the high cost of

development and the low return on investment for rare diseases, governments provide regulatory and commercial
incentives for the development of drugs for small disease populations. In the U.S., the term “rare disease or
condition” means any disease or condition that affects less than 200,000 persons in the U.S. Applications for
United States orphan drug status are evaluated and granted by the Office of Orphan Products Development
(“OOPD”) of the FDA. In the U.S., orphan drugs are subject to the standard regulatory process for marketing
approval but are exempt from the payment of user fees for licensure, receive market exclusivity for a period of
seven years and some tax benefits, and are eligible for OOPD grants.

In Europe, orphan medicinal products are those intended for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of a life-

threatening or chronically debilitating condition affecting not more than five in 10,000 persons in the
Community. The EMA’s Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products (“COMP”) reviews applications seeking
orphan designation. If the European Commission agrees with a positive assessment made by COMP, then the
product will receive a positive designation through adoption of a decision by the European Commission. Orphan
medicinal products are exempt from fees for protocol assistance and scientific advice from the Scientific Advice
Working Party during development, reduction or exemption of MA and other fees, and ten-year market
exclusivity upon granting of a MA in respect of the approved clinical indication. Moreover, manufacturers may
be eligible for grants or other financial incentives from the Community and Member States programs.

Patents and Trade Secrets

Patent and trade secret protection is important to our business and our future will depend in part on our
ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights
of others. As a result of our ongoing activities, we hold and have filed applications for a number of patents in the
U.S. and internationally to protect our products and important processes. We also have obtained or have the right
to obtain exclusive licenses to certain patents and applications filed by others. However, the patent position of
biotechnology companies generally is highly uncertain and consistent policy regarding the breadth of allowed
claims has not emerged from the actions of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“Patent Office”) with respect
to biotechnology patents. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that our patents will afford protection against
competitors with similar technologies or others will not obtain patents claiming aspects similar to those covered
by our patent applications.

We have established a portfolio of patents in the U.S., Europe and certain other countries for our

gevokizumab program, the longest of which expires in 2027. U.S. Patent Nos. 7,531,166 and 7,582,742 cover
gevokizumab and other antibodies and antibody fragments with similar binding properties for IL-1 beta, as well
as nucleic acids, expression vectors and production cell lines for the manufacture of such antibodies and antibody
fragments. U.S. Patent Nos. 7,744,865, 7,744,866 and 7,943,121 relate to additional IL-1 beta binding antibodies
and binding fragments. U.S. Patent No. 7,695,718 relates to methods of treating Type 2 diabetes with high
affinity antibodies and antibody fragments that bind to IL-1 beta, including gevokizumab. U.S. Patent
No. 7,695,717 relates to methods of treating certain IL-1 related inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid

19

arthritis and osteoarthritis, with gevokizumab and other antibodies and antibody fragments with similar binding
properties for IL-1 beta. U.S. Patent No. 7,829,093 relates to methods of treating diabetes mellitus (“Type 1”)
with gevokizumab or other IL-1 beta antibodies and fragments having similar binding properties. U.S. Patent
No. 7,829,094 relates to methods of treating certain cancers with gevokizumab or other IL-1beta antibodies and
fragments having similar binding properties, with the cancer being selected from multiple myeloma, acute
myelogenous leukemia and chronic myelogenous leukemia. U.S. Patent No. 7,988,968 relates to methods of
treating certain IL-1beta related coronary conditions, including myocardial infarction, with gevokizumab or other
IL-1beta antibodies and fragments having similar binding properties, Also, patents have been granted by the
European Patent Office and certain other countries for gevokizumab, as well as nucleic acids, expression vectors
and production cell lines for the manufacture of gevokizumab.

We have exclusively in-licensed a portfolio of patents and applications covering anti-botulinum toxin
antibodies from the Regents of the University of California. These include U.S. Patent Nos. 7,700,738 and
7,999,079, covering certain XOMA 3AB antibodies, the longest of which expire in 2026.

We have exclusively in-licensed the U.S. rights to a portfolio of patents and applications related to the
perindopril franchise from Les Laboratoires Servier. These include U.S. Patent No. 6,696,481, covering an
arginine salt of perindopril and its hydrates, which expires in 2023.

We have established a portfolio of patents related to our bacterial expression technology, including claims to

novel promoter sequences, secretion signal sequences, compositions, methods for expression and secretion of
recombinant proteins from bacteria, including immunoglobulin gene products, and improved methods and cells
for expression of recombinant protein products. U.S. Patent Nos. 5,576,195 and 5,846,818 are related to DNA
encoding a pectate lyase signal sequence, recombinant vectors, host cells and methods for production and
externalization of recombinant proteins. U.S. Patent Nos. 5,595,898, 5,698,435 and 5,618,920 relate to secretable
immunoglobulin chains, DNA encoding the chains and methods for their recombinant production. U.S. Patent
Nos. 5,693,493, 5,698,417 and 6,204,023 relate to methods for recombinant production/secretion of functional
immunoglobulin molecules. U.S. Patent Nos. 7,094,579, 7,396,661, 7,972,811 and 7,977,068 relate to particular
eukaryotic signal sequences and their use in methods for prokaryotic expression of polypeptides and for
preparing polypeptide display libraries. U.S. Patent No. 6,803,210 relates to improved bacterial host cells that are
deficient in one or more of the active transport systems for an inducer of an inducible promoter, such as
arabinose for an araB promoter, and methods for the use of such cells for the production of recombinant proteins.
Most of the more important European patents in this portfolio expired in July 2008 or earlier.

We also have established a portfolio of patents related to our mammalian expression technology, including

U.S. Patent Nos. 7,192,737, 7,993,915 and 7,794,976, which relate to methods of producing recombinant proteins
using particular vectors, including expression vectors comprising multiple copies of a transcription unit encoding
a polypeptide separated by at least one selective marker gene.

We have established a portfolio of patents related to our Human Engineering™ technology, including U.S.

Patent No. 5,766,886, directed to methods of modifying antibody variable domains to reduce immunogenicity.
We believe our patented Human Engineering™ technology provides an attractive alternative to other
humanization technologies.

If certain patents issued to others are upheld or if certain patent applications filed by others issue and are

upheld, we may require certain licenses from others in order to develop and commercialize certain potential
products incorporating our technology. There can be no assurance that such licenses, if required, will be available
on acceptable terms.

Where appropriate, we also rely on trade secrets to protect aspects of our technology. However, trade secrets

are difficult to protect. We protect our proprietary technology and processes, in part, by confidentiality
agreements with our employees, consultants and collaborators. These parties may breach these agreements, and

20

we may not have adequate remedies for any breach. Our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be
independently discovered by competitors. To the extent that we or our consultants or collaborators use
intellectual property owned by others, we may have disputes with our collaborators or consultants or other third
parties as to the rights in related or resulting know-how and inventions.

International Operations

We believe, because the pharmaceutical industry is global in nature, international activities will be a
significant part of our future business activities and, when and if we are able to generate income, a substantial
portion of that income may be derived from product sales and other activities outside the U.S.

A number of risks are inherent in international operations. Foreign regulatory agencies often establish
standards different from those in the U.S. An inability to obtain foreign regulatory approvals on a timely basis
could have an adverse effect on our international business, financial condition and results of operations.
International operations may be limited or disrupted by the imposition of government controls, export license
requirements, political or economic instability, trade restrictions, changes in tariffs, restrictions on repatriating
profits, taxation or difficulties in staffing and managing international operations. In addition, our business,
financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange
rates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully operate in any foreign market.

Financial information regarding the geographic areas in which we operate is included in Note 12 to the

December 31, 2011, Financial Statements: Concentration of Risk, Segment and Geographic Information.

Concentration of Risk

In 2011, Servier and NIAID accounted for 61% and 32% of our total revenue, neither of which represents a
related party to XOMA. These key customers accounted for 57% and 43% of the accounts receivable balance at
December 31, 2011. The loss of one or more of these customers could have a material effect on our business and
financial condition.

In 2010, NIAID, UCB, and Takeda each accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue, none of which
represents a related party to XOMA. These key customers accounted for 87% of our total revenue in 2010 and
NIAID was responsible for 23% of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2010. Servier accounted for
an additional 72% of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2010. The loss of one or more of these
customers could have a material effect on our business and financial condition.

In 2009, Takeda and Genentech each accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue, none of which

represents a related party to XOMA. These key customers accounted for 65% of our total revenue in 2009, but
were not responsible for any of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2009. NIAID, Arana, and
Kaketsuken accounted for 90% of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2009.

Organization

We were incorporated in Delaware in 1981 and became a Bermuda exempted company in December 1998.

Effective December 31, 2011, we changed our jurisdiction of incorporation from Bermuda to Delaware and
changed our name to XOMA Corporation. When referring to a time or period before December 31, 1998, or
when the context so requires, the terms “Company” and “XOMA” refer to XOMA Corporation, a Delaware
corporation, and when referring to a time or period after December 31, 1998 and before December 31, 2011, such
terms refer to XOMA Ltd., a Bermuda company.

Employees

As of March 12, 2012, we employed 188 full-time employees, none of which are unionized, at our facilities,
principally in Berkeley, California. As of April 6, 2012, upon the completion of our workforce reduction, we will

21

employ 158 employees. Our employees primarily are engaged in clinical, process development, research and
product development, and in executive, business development, finance and administrative positions. We consider
our employee relations to be excellent.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factors and other information included in this annual report should be carefully
considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and
uncertainties not presently known to us also may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks
occur, our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

Because our product candidates are still being developed, we will require substantial funds to continue; we
cannot be certain that funds will be available and, if they are not available, we may have to take actions
that could adversely affect your investment and may not be able to continue operations.

We will need to commit substantial funds to continue development of our product candidates and we may

not be able to obtain sufficient funds on acceptable terms, or at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity
securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may
contain terms that are not favorable to our stockholders or us. If we raise additional funds through collaboration
and licensing arrangements with third parties, we may be required to relinquish some rights to our technologies
or our product candidates, grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us or enter into a collaboration
arrangement for a product candidate at an earlier stage of development or for a lesser amount than we might
otherwise choose.

Additional funds may not be available when we need them on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. If

adequate funds are not available on a timely basis, we may:

•

•

•

terminate or delay clinical trials for one or more of our product candidates;

further reduce our headcount and capital or operating expenditures; or

curtail our spending on protecting our intellectual property.

22

We finance our operations primarily through our multiple revenue streams resulting from discovery and
development collaborations, biodefense contracts, the licensing of our antibody technologies, and sales of our
common stock. In September 2009, we sold our royalty interest in LUCENTIS® to Genentech, Inc., a wholly-
owned member of the Roche Group (“Genentech”) for gross proceeds of $25.0 million, including royalty revenue
from the second quarter of 2009. These proceeds, along with other funds, were used to fully repay our loan from
Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Holdings, Inc. (“Goldman Sachs”). As a result, we no longer have a royalty
interest in LUCENTIS®. In August 2010, we sold our royalty interest in CIMZIA® for gross proceeds of $4.0
million, including royalty revenue from the second quarter of 2010. As a result, we no longer have a royalty
interest in CIMZIA®. We received revenue from this royalty interest of $0.5 million in 2010 and $0.5 million in
2009.

Based on our cash reserves and anticipated spending levels, revenue from collaborations including our

gevokizumab (formerly referred to as XOMA 052) collaboration agreement with Les Laboratoires Servier
(“Servier”), funding from our loan agreements with Servier and General Electric Capital Corporation (“GECC”),
our recent public offering, biodefense contracts and licensing transactions and other sources of funding that we
believe to be available, we believe that we have sufficient cash resources to meet our anticipated net cash needs
into 2014. Any significant revenue shortfalls, increases in planned spending on development programs or more
rapid progress of development programs than anticipated, as well as the unavailability of anticipated sources of
funding, could shorten this period or otherwise have a material adverse impact on our ability to finance our
continued operations. If adequate funds are not available, we will be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or
eliminate one or more of our product development programs and further reduce personnel-related costs. Progress
or setbacks by potentially competing products may also affect our ability to raise new funding on acceptable
terms. As a result, we do not know when or whether:

•

•

•

•

operations will generate meaningful funds,

additional agreements for product development funding can be reached,

strategic alliances can be negotiated, or

adequate additional financing will be available for us to finance our own development on acceptable
terms, or at all.

Cash balances and operating cash flow are influenced primarily by the timing and level of payments by
our licensees, collaboration and development partners, as well as by our operating costs.

Global credit and financial market conditions may reduce our ability to access capital and cash and could

negatively impact the value of our current portfolio of cash equivalents and our ability to meet our financing
objectives.

Traditionally, we have funded a large portion of our research and development expenditures through raising

capital in the equity markets. Recent events, including failures and bankruptcies among large commercial and
investment banks, have led to considerable declines and uncertainties in these and other capital markets and have
led to new regulatory and other restrictions that may broadly affect the nature of these markets. These
circumstances could severely restrict the raising of new capital by companies such as us in the future.

Volatility in the financial markets has also created liquidity problems in investments previously thought to

bear a minimal risk. For example, money market fund investors, including us, have in the past been unable to
retrieve the full amount of funds, even in highly-rated liquid money market accounts, upon maturity. Although as
of December 31, 2011, we have received the full amount of proceeds from money market fund investments, an
inability to retrieve funds from money market fund investments as they mature in the future could have a material
and adverse impact on our business, results of operations and cash flows.

Our cash and cash equivalents are maintained in highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of

90 days or less at the time of purchase. While as of the date of this filing, we are not aware of any downgrades,

23

material losses, or other significant deterioration in the fair value of our cash equivalents since December 31,
2011, no assurance can be given that further deterioration in conditions of the global credit and financial markets
would not negatively impact our current portfolio of cash equivalents or our ability to meet our financing
objectives.

Because all of our product candidates are still being developed, we have sustained losses in the past and we
expect to sustain losses in the future.

We have experienced significant losses and, as of December 31, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of

$886.1 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2011, we had a net loss of approximately $32.7 million or $1.04 per share
of common stock (basic and diluted). For the year ended December 31, 2010, we had a net loss of approximately
$68.8 million or $3.69 per share of common stock (basic and diluted).

Our ability to achieve profitability is dependent in large part on the success of our development programs,

obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates and entering into new agreements for product
development, manufacturing and commercialization, all of which are uncertain. Our ability to fund our ongoing
operations is dependent on the foregoing factors and on our ability to secure additional funds. Because our
product candidates are still being developed, we do not know whether we will ever achieve sustained profitability
or whether cash flow from future operations will be sufficient to meet our needs.

We have received negative results from certain of our clinical trials, and we face uncertain results of other
clinical trials of our product candidates.

In March 2011, we announced that our Phase 2b trial of gevokizumab in Type 2 diabetes in 421 patients did

not achieve the primary endpoint of reduction in hemoglobin A1c (“HbA1c”) after six monthly treatments with
gevokizumab compared to placebo. In June 2011, we announced top line trial results from our six-month Phase
2a trial of gevokizumab in Type 2 diabetes in 74 patients, and there were no differences in glycemic control
between the drug and placebo groups as measured by HbA1c levels.

Many of our product candidates, including gevokizumab and XOMA 3AB, will require significant
additional research and development, extensive preclinical studies and clinical trials and regulatory approval
prior to any commercial sales. This process is lengthy and expensive, often taking a number of years. As clinical
results are frequently susceptible to varying interpretations that may delay, limit or prevent regulatory approvals,
the length of time necessary to complete clinical trials and to submit an application for marketing approval for a
final decision by a regulatory authority varies significantly. As a result, it is uncertain whether:

•

•

•

•

•

•

our future filings will be delayed,

our preclinical and clinical studies will be successful,

we will be successful in generating viable product candidates to targets,

we will be able to provide necessary additional data,

results of future clinical trials will justify further development, or

we will ultimately achieve regulatory approval for any of these product candidates.

The timing of the commencement, continuation and completion of clinical trials may be subject to

significant delays relating to various causes, including completion of preclinical testing and earlier-stage clinical
trials in a timely manner, scheduling conflicts with participating clinicians and clinical institutions, difficulties in
identifying and enrolling patients who meet trial eligibility criteria, and shortages of available drug
supply. Patient enrollment is a function of many factors, including the size of the patient population, the

24

proximity of patients to clinical sites, the eligibility criteria for the trial, the existence of competing clinical trials
and the availability of alternative or new treatments. Regardless of the initial size or relative complexity of a
clinical trial, the costs of such trial may be higher than expected due to increases in duration or size of the trial,
changes in the protocol pursuant to which the trial is being conducted, additional or special requirements of one
or more of the healthcare centers where the trial is being conducted, changes in the regulatory requirements
applicable to the trial or in the standards or guidelines for approval of the product candidate being tested or for
other unforeseen reasons. In addition, we will conduct clinical trials in foreign countries in the future which may
subject us to further delays and expenses as a result of increased drug shipment costs, additional regulatory
requirements and the engagement of foreign clinical research organizations, as well as expose us to risks
associated with foreign currency transactions insofar as we might desire to use U.S. dollars to make contract
payments denominated in the foreign currency where the trial is being conducted.

All of our product candidates are prone to the risks of failure inherent in drug development. Preclinical

studies may not yield results that would satisfactorily support the filing of an Investigational New Drug
application (“IND”) (or a foreign equivalent) with respect to our product candidates. Even if these applications
would be or have been filed with respect to our product candidates, the results of preclinical studies do not
necessarily predict the results of clinical trials. Similarly, early-stage clinical trials in healthy volunteers do not
predict the results of later-stage clinical trials, including the safety and efficacy profiles of any particular product
candidates. In addition, there can be no assurance that the design of our clinical trials is focused on appropriate
indications, patient populations, dosing regimens or other variables which will result in obtaining the desired
efficacy data to support regulatory approval to commercialize the drug. Preclinical and clinical data can be
interpreted in different ways. Accordingly, Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) officials or officials from
foreign regulatory authorities could interpret the data in different ways than we or our collaboration or
development partners do which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval.

Administering any of our products or potential products may produce undesirable side effects, also known

as adverse effects. Toxicities and adverse effects that we have observed in preclinical studies for some
compounds in a particular research and development program may occur in preclinical studies or clinical trials of
other compounds from the same program. Such toxicities or adverse effects could delay or prevent the filing of
an IND (or a foreign equivalent) with respect to such products or potential products or cause us to cease clinical
trials with respect to any drug candidate. In clinical trials, administering any of our products or product
candidates to humans may produce adverse effects. These adverse effects could interrupt, delay or halt clinical
trials of our products and product candidates and could result in the FDA or other regulatory authorities denying
approval of our products or product candidates for any or all targeted indications. The FDA, other regulatory
authorities, our collaboration or development partners or we may suspend or terminate clinical trials at any
time. Even if one or more of our product candidates were approved for sale, the occurrence of even a limited
number of toxicities or adverse effects when used in large populations may cause the FDA to impose restrictions
on, or stop, the further marketing of such drugs. Indications of potential adverse effects or toxicities which may
occur in clinical trials and which we believe are not significant during the course of such clinical trials may later
turn out to actually constitute serious adverse effects or toxicities when a drug has been used in large populations
or for extended periods of time. Any failure or significant delay in completing preclinical studies or clinical trials
for our product candidates, or in receiving and maintaining regulatory approval for the sale of any drugs resulting
from our product candidates, may severely harm our reputation and business.

In June 2011, Novartis announced that an advisory committee of the FDA voted in favor of the overall

efficacy but not the overall safety of Ilaris® (canakinumab), a fully-human monoclonal antibody that, like
gevokizumab, targets IL-1 beta, to treat gouty arthritis attacks in patients who cannot obtain adequate relief with
non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or colchicine. Novartis also stated that in two pivotal Phase 3 studies of
canakinumab in gouty arthritis patients, a higher percentage of patients had adverse events with canakinumab
than with the standard treatment for gouty arthritis, and more serious adverse events were reported by patients
treated with canakinumab compared to patients receiving the standard treatment. In August 2011, Novartis
announced that the FDA had issued a Complete Response letter requesting additional information, including

25

clinical data to evaluate the benefit risk profile of canakinumab in refractory gouty arthritis patients. We have not
yet determined what impact, if any, these developments may have on the development of gevokizumab.

If our therapeutic product candidates do not receive regulatory approval, neither our third party
collaborators nor we will be able to manufacture and market them.

Our product candidates (including gevokizumab, perindopril arginine in combination with amlodipine
besylate (“FDC1”) and XOMA 3AB) cannot be manufactured and marketed in the United States and other
countries without required regulatory approvals. The United States government and governments of other
countries extensively regulate many aspects of our product candidates, including:

•

•

•

•

testing,

manufacturing,

promotion and marketing, and

exporting.

In the United States, the FDA regulates pharmaceutical products under the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act and other laws, including, in the case of biologics, the Public Health Service Act. At the present
time, we believe that many of our product candidates (including gevokizumab and XOMA 3AB) will be
regulated by the FDA as biologics and that some of our product candidates (including FDC1) will be regulated
by the FDA as drugs. Initiation of clinical trials requires approval by health authorities. Clinical trials involve the
administration of the investigational new drug to healthy volunteers or to patients under the supervision of a
qualified principal investigator. Clinical trials must be conducted in accordance with FDA and International
Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use
Good Clinical Practices and the European Clinical Trials Directive under protocols that detail the objectives of
the study, the parameters to be used to monitor safety and the efficacy criteria to be evaluated. Other national,
foreign and local regulations may also apply. The developer of the drug must provide information relating to the
characterization and controls of the product before administration to the patients participating in the clinical
trials. This requires developing approved assays of the product to test before administration to the patient and
during the conduct of the trial. In addition, developers of pharmaceutical products must provide periodic data
regarding clinical trials to the FDA and other health authorities, and these health authorities may issue a clinical
hold upon a trial if they do not believe, or cannot confirm, that the trial can be conducted without unreasonable
risk to the trial participants. We cannot assure you that U.S. and foreign health authorities will not issue a clinical
hold with respect to any of our clinical trials in the future.

The results of the preclinical studies and clinical testing, together with chemistry, manufacturing and

controls information, are submitted to the FDA and other health authorities in the form of a New Drug
Application (“NDA”) for a drug, and in the form of a Biologic License Application (“BLA”) for a biological
product, requesting approval to commence commercial sales. In responding to an NDA or BLA, the FDA or
foreign health authorities may grant marketing approvals, request additional information or further research, or
deny the application if it determines that the application does not satisfy its regulatory approval
criteria. Regulatory approval of an NDA, BLA, or supplement is never guaranteed, and the approval process can
take several years and is extremely expensive. The FDA and foreign health authorities have substantial discretion
in the drug and biologics approval processes. Despite the time and expense incurred, failure can occur at any
stage, and we could encounter problems that cause us to abandon clinical trials or to repeat or perform additional
preclinical, clinical or manufacturing-related studies.

Changes in the regulatory approval policy during the development period, changes in, or the enactment of
additional regulations or statutes, or changes in regulatory review for each submitted product application may
cause delays in the approval or rejection of an application. State regulations may also affect our proposed
products.

26

The FDA and other regulatory agencies have substantial discretion in both the product approval process and

manufacturing facility approval process and, as a result of this discretion and uncertainties about outcomes of
testing, we cannot predict at what point, or whether, the FDA or other regulatory agencies will be satisfied with
our or our collaborators’ submissions or whether the FDA or other regulatory agencies will raise questions which
may be material and delay or preclude product approval or manufacturing facility approval. In light of this
discretion and the complexities of the scientific, medical and regulatory environment, our interpretation or
understanding of the FDA’s or other regulatory agencies’ requirements, guidelines or expectations may prove
incorrect, which could also further delay or increase the cost of the approval process. As we accumulate
additional clinical data, we will submit it to the FDA and other regulatory agencies, as appropriate and such data
may have a material impact on the approval process.

Given that regulatory review is an interactive and continuous process, we maintain a policy of limiting
announcements and comments upon the specific details of regulatory review of our product candidates, subject to
our obligations under the securities laws, until definitive action is taken.

Even once approved, a product may be subject to additional testing or significant marketing restrictions,
its approval may be withdrawn or it may be voluntarily taken off the market.

Even if the FDA, the European Commission or another regulatory agency approves a product candidate for

marketing, the approval may impose ongoing requirements for post-approval studies, including additional
research and development and clinical trials, and the FDA, European Commission or other regulatory agency
may subsequently withdraw approval based on these additional trials. As the current holder of the ACEON®
NDA, we are required to submit annual reports to the FDA and are responsible for pharmacovigilance activities
related to the product.

Even for approved products, the FDA, European Commission or other regulatory agency may impose
significant restrictions on the indicated uses, conditions for use, labeling, advertising, promotion, marketing and/
or production of such product.

Furthermore, a marketing approval of a product may be withdrawn by the FDA, the European Commission

or another regulatory agency or such a product may be voluntarily withdrawn by the company marketing it
based, for example, on subsequently-arising safety concerns. In February 2009, the European Medicines Agency
(“EMA”) announced that it had recommended suspension of the marketing authorization of RAPTIVA® in the
European Union and that its Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”) had concluded that
the benefits of RAPTIVA® no longer outweigh its risks because of safety concerns, including the occurrence of
progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (“PML”) in patients taking the medicine. In the second quarter of
2009, Genentech announced and carried out a phased voluntary withdrawal of RAPTIVA® from the U.S. market,
based on the association of RAPTIVA® with an increased risk of PML.

The FDA, European Commission and other agencies also may impose various civil or criminal sanctions for

failure to comply with regulatory requirements, including withdrawal of product approval.

We may issue additional equity securities and thereby materially and adversely affect the price of our
common stock.

We are authorized to issue, without stockholder approval, 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which
none were issued and outstanding as of March 9, 2012, which may give other stockholders dividend, conversion,
voting, and liquidation rights, among other rights, which may be superior to the rights of holders of our common
stock. In April 2011, the 2,959 Series B convertible preference shares previously issued to Genentech were
converted by Genentech into 254,560 shares of common stock. In addition, we are authorized to issue, generally
without stockholder approval, up to 92,666,666 shares of common stock, of which 68,043,103 were issued and
outstanding as of March 12, 2012. If we issue additional equity securities, the price of our common stock may be
materially and adversely affected.

27

In the third quarter of 2009, we had entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2009 ATM
Agreement”), with Wm Smith & Co. (“Wm Smith”), under which we could sell up to 1.7 million shares of our
common stock from time to time through Wm Smith, as the agent for the offer and sale of the shares. Wm Smith
could sell these shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in
Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including but not limited to sales
made directly on The NASDAQ Global Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock or to
or through a market maker. Wm Smith could also sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to
our approval. From the inception of the 2009 ATM Agreement through October 27, 2010, we sold a total of
1,666,666 shares of common stock through Wm Smith, constituting all of the shares available for sale under the
agreement, for aggregate gross proceeds of $12.2 million.

In February 2010, we completed an underwritten offering of 2.8 million units, with each unit consisting of

one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.45 of a share of common stock, for gross proceeds of
approximately $21.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering
expenses of $1.7 million. The investors purchased the units at a price of $7.50 per unit. The warrants, which
represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up to 1.26 million shares of common stock, are exercisable
beginning six months and one day after issuance and have a five-year term and an exercise price of $10.50 per
share.

In July 2010, we entered into a common stock purchase agreement with Azimuth Opportunity, Ltd.

(“Azimuth”), pursuant to which we obtained a committed equity line of credit facility under which we could sell
up to $30.0 million of our registered shares of common stock to Azimuth over a 12-month period, subject to
certain conditions and limitations. In August 2010, we sold a total of 3,421,407 shares under this facility for
aggregate proceeds of $14.2 million, representing the maximum number of shares that could be sold under this
facility.

In October of 2010, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2010 ATM Agreement”),

with Wm Smith and McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (the “Agents”), under which we could sell shares of our
common stock from time to time through the Agents, as our agents for the offer and sale of the shares, in an
aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under our registration statement on Form S-3 (File
No. 333-148342) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 26, 2007 and
declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2008. The Agents could sell the shares by any method permitted by
law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including without
limitation sales made directly on The NASDAQ Global Market, on any other existing trading market for our
common stock or to or through a market maker. The Agents could also sell the shares in privately negotiated
transactions, subject to our prior approval. From the inception of the 2010 ATM Agreement through May of
2011, we sold a total of 7.6 million shares of common stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of
$34.0 million, including 0.8 million shares sold in 2011 for aggregate gross proceeds of $4.4 million. In May of
2011, the 2010 ATM Agreement expired by its terms, and there will be no further issuances under this facility.

On February 4, 2011, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2011 ATM

Agreement”) with McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (now known as MLV & Co. LLC, “MLV”), under which we
may sell shares of our common stock from time to time through the MLV, as our agent for the offer and sale of
the shares, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under our registration statement on
Form S-3 (File No. 333-172197) filed with the SEC on February 11, 2011 and amended on March 10,
2011, June 3, 2011 and January 3, 2012, which was most recently declared effective by the SEC on January 17,
2012. MLV may sell the shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as
defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made directly on The NASDAQ
Global Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock or to or through a market
maker. MLV may also sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to our prior approval. From the
inception of the 2011 ATM Agreement through March 12, 2012, we sold a total of 7,572,327 shares of common
stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of $14.6 million.

28

On March 9, 2012, we completed an underwritten public offering of 29,669,154 shares of our common
stock, and accompanying warrants to purchase one half of a share of common stock for each share purchased, at
a public offering price of $1.32 per share. Total gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $39.2
million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses totaling
approximately $3.0 million. The warrants, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up to 14,834,577
shares of common stock, are immediately exercisable and have a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.76
per share.

The financial terms of future collaborative or licensing arrangements could result in dilution of our share
value.

Funding from collaboration partners and others has in the past and may in the future involve issuance by us
of our shares. We cannot be certain how the purchase price of such shares, the relevant market price or premium,
if any, will be determined or when such determinations will be made. Any such issuance could result in dilution
in the value of our issued and outstanding shares.

Our share price may be volatile and there may not be an active trading market for our common stock.

There can be no assurance that the market price of our common stock will not decline below its present

market price or that there will be an active trading market for our common stock. The market prices of
biotechnology companies have been and are likely to continue to be highly volatile. Fluctuations in our operating
results and general market conditions for biotechnology stocks could have a significant impact on the volatility of
our common stock price. We have experienced significant volatility in the price of our common stock. From
January 1, 2011 through March 12, 2012, the share price of our common stock has ranged from a high of $7.71 to
a low of $1.04. Factors contributing to such volatility include, but are not limited to:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

results of preclinical studies and clinical trials,

information relating to the safety or efficacy of products or product candidates,

developments regarding regulatory filings,

announcements of new collaborations,

failure to enter into collaborations,

developments in existing collaborations,

our funding requirements and the terms of our financing arrangements,

technological innovations or new indications for our therapeutic products and product candidates,

introduction of new products or technologies by us or our competitors,

sales and estimated or forecasted sales of products for which we receive royalties, if any,

government regulations,

developments in patent or other proprietary rights,

the number of shares issued and outstanding,

the number of shares trading on an average trading day,

announcements regarding other participants in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, and

market speculation regarding any of the foregoing.

If we are unable to continue to meet the requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Global
Market, then we may be de-listed. In March 2010, we received a Staff Determination letter from The NASDAQ
Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) indicating that we had not regained compliance with the minimum $1.00 per
share requirement for continued inclusion on The NASDAQ Global Market, pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule
5450(a)(1). On August 18, 2010, we effected a reverse split of our common stock in order to regain compliance.

29

We may not be successful in commercializing our products, which could also affect our development
efforts.

We began commercializing our first product, ACEON®, in January 2012, and we have limited experience in
the sales, marketing and distribution of pharmaceutical products. There can be no assurance that we will be able
to maintain the arrangements we have with third-party suppliers, distributors and other service providers that are
necessary for us to perform these activities or that our efforts will be successful. Maintaining or expanding these
arrangements, or developing our own capabilities, may divert attention and resources from or otherwise
negatively affect our development programs.

Our rights to commercialize ACEON® are licensed from Servier, and we are obligated to develop and
commercialize the products covered by our agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of that
agreement. Our ability to satisfy some of these obligations is dependent on factors that are outside of our control,
and our agreement may be terminated if we materially breach our obligations and fail to cure such breach or for
other reasons. If our agreement is terminated, we would have no further rights to develop and commercialize
these products.

Furthermore, because we intend to use revenues generated by sales of ACEON® in part to fund development

of FDC1, lower than expected revenues from such sales could adversely affect our ability to fund the costs of
such development.

We are subject to various state and federal healthcare related laws and regulations that may impact the
commercialization of ACEON® or our product candidates and could subject us to significant fines and
penalties.

Our operations may be directly or indirectly subject to various state and federal healthcare laws, including,
without limitation, the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the federal False Claims Act and HIPAA/HITECH. These
laws may impact, among other things, the commercial operations for ACEON or any of our product candidates
that may be approved for commercial sale.

The federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits persons from knowingly and willingly soliciting, offering,
receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce either the referral of an
individual, or the furnishing or arranging for a good or service, for which payment may be made under a federal
healthcare program such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Several courts have interpreted the statute’s
intent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce
referrals of federal healthcare covered business, the statute has been violated. The Anti-Kickback Statute is broad
and prohibits many arrangements and practices that are lawful in businesses outside of the healthcare industry.
Penalties for violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute include criminal penalties and civil sanctions such as
fines, imprisonment and possible exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs.
Many states have also adopted laws similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, some of which apply to the
referral of patients for healthcare items or services reimbursed by any source, not only the Medicare and
Medicaid programs. The Physician Payments Sunshine Act also has several state equivalents, which require, and
under which the federal government will require in 2013, disclosure of payments we make to physicians for
consulting and other services.

The federal False Claims Act prohibits persons from knowingly filing, or causing to be filed, a false claim
to, or the knowing use of false statements to obtain payment from the federal government. Suits filed under the
False Claims Act, known as “qui tam” actions, can be brought by any individual on behalf of the government and
such individuals, commonly known as “whistleblowers,” may share in any amounts paid by the entity to the
government in fines or settlement. The filing of qui tam actions has caused a number of pharmaceutical, medical
device and other healthcare companies to have to defend a False Claims Act action. When an entity is determined
to have violated the False Claims Act, it may be required to pay up to three times the actual damages sustained
by the government, plus civil penalties for each separate false claim. Various states have also enacted laws
modeled after the federal False Claims Act.

30

The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created new federal
criminal statutes that prohibit executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program and making false
statements relating to healthcare matters and was amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical
Health Act, or HITECH, and its implementing regulations, which imposes certain requirements relating to the
privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. In order to comply with these
laws, we have implemented a compliance program to actively identify, prevent and mitigate risk through the
implementation of compliance policies and systems and by promoting a culture of compliance. Although we take
our obligation to maintain our compliance with these various laws and regulations seriously and our compliance
program is designed to prevent the violation of these laws and regulations, if we are found to be in violation of
any of the laws and regulations described above or other applicable state and federal healthcare fraud and abuse
laws, we may be subject to penalties, including civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines, exclusion from
government healthcare reimbursement programs and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations, all of
which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Certain of our technologies are in-licensed from third parties, so our capabilities using them are restricted
and subject to additional risks.

We license technologies from third parties. These technologies include but are not limited to phage display

technologies licensed to us in connection with our bacterial cell expression technology licensing
program. However, our use of these technologies is limited by certain contractual provisions in the licenses
relating to them and, although we have obtained numerous licenses, intellectual property rights in the area of
phage display are particularly complex. If the owners of the patent rights underlying the technologies we license
do not properly maintain or enforce those patents, our competitive position and business prospects could be
harmed. Our success will depend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our
in-licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may not successfully prosecute the patent applications to which
we have licenses, or our licensors may fail to maintain existing patents. They may determine not to pursue
litigation against other companies that are infringing these patents, or they may pursue such litigation less
aggressively than we would. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license, which could cause us to lose
the right to use the licensed intellectual property and adversely affect our ability to commercialize our
technologies, products or services.

We do not know whether there will be, or will continue to be, a viable market for the products in which we
have an ownership or royalty interest.

Even if products in which we have an interest receive approval in the future, they may not be accepted in the

marketplace. In addition, we or our collaborators or licensees may experience difficulties in launching new
products, many of which are novel and based on technologies that are unfamiliar to the healthcare
community. We have no assurance that healthcare providers and patients will accept such products, if
developed. For example, physicians and/or patients may not accept a product for a particular indication because it
has been biologically derived (and not discovered and developed by more traditional means) or if no biologically
derived products are currently in widespread use in that indication. Similarly, physicians may not accept a
product if they believe other products to be more effective or more cost-effective or are more comfortable
prescribing other products.

Safety concerns may also arise in the course of on-going clinical trials or patient treatment as a result of

adverse events or reactions. For example, in February 2009, the EMA announced that it had recommended
suspension of the marketing authorization of RAPTIVA® in the European Union and EMD Serono Inc., the
company that marketed RAPTIVA® in Canada (“EMD Serono”) announced that, in consultation with Health
Canada, the Canadian health authority (“Health Canada”), it would suspend marketing of RAPTIVA® in
Canada. In March 2009, Merck Serono Australia Pty Ltd, the company that marketed RAPTIVA® in Australia
(“Merck Serono Australia”), following a recommendation from the Therapeutic Goods Administration, the
Australian health authority (“TGA”), announced that it was withdrawing RAPTIVA® from the Australian

31

market. In the second quarter of 2009, Genentech announced and carried out a phased voluntary withdrawal of
RAPTIVA® from the U.S. market, based on the association of RAPTIVA® with an increased risk of PML. As a
result, sales of RAPTIVA® ceased in the second quarter of 2009.

Furthermore, government agencies, as well as private organizations involved in healthcare, from time to

time publish guidelines or recommendations to healthcare providers and patients. Such guidelines or
recommendations can be very influential and may adversely affect the usage of any products we may develop
directly (for example, by recommending a decreased dosage of a product in conjunction with a concomitant
therapy or a government entity withdrawing its recommendation to screen blood donations for certain viruses) or
indirectly (for example, by recommending a competitive product over our product). Consequently, we do not
know if physicians or patients will adopt or use our products for their approved indications.

Even approved and marketed products are subject to risks relating to changes in the market for such

products. Introduction or increased availability of generic versions of products can alter the market acceptance of
branded products, such as ACEON®. In addition, unforeseen safety issues may arise at any time, regardless of
the length of time a product has been on the market.

Our third party collaborators, licensees, suppliers or contractors may not have adequate manufacturing
capacity sufficient to meet market demand.

Upon approval of any of our product candidates or in the event of increased demand for marketed products,

we do not know whether the capacity of the manufacturing facilities of our existing or future third-party
collaborators, licensees, suppliers or contractors will be available or can be increased to produce sufficient
quantities of our products to meet market demand. Also, if we or our third party collaborators, licensees,
suppliers or contractors need additional manufacturing facilities to meet market demand, we cannot predict that
we will successfully obtain those facilities because we do not know whether they will be available on acceptable
terms. In addition, any manufacturing facilities acquired or used to meet market demand must meet the FDA’s
quality assurance guidelines.

Our agreements with third parties, many of which are significant to our business, expose us to numerous
risks.

Our financial resources and our marketing experience and expertise are limited. Consequently, our ability to
successfully develop products depends, to a large extent, upon securing the financial resources and/or marketing
capabilities of third parties.

•

In April 1996, we entered into an agreement with Genentech whereby we agreed to co-develop
Genentech’s humanized monoclonal antibody product RAPTIVA®. In April 1999, March 2003, and
January 2005, the companies amended the agreement. In October 2003, RAPTIVA® was approved by
the FDA for the treatment of adults with chronic moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are
candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy and, in September 2004, Merck Serono announced the
product’s approval in the European Union. In January 2005, we entered into a restructuring of our
collaboration agreement with Genentech which ended our existing cost and profit sharing arrangement
related to RAPTIVA® in the United States and entitled us to a royalty interest on worldwide net
sales. In February 2009, the EMA announced that it had recommended suspension of the marketing
authorization of RAPTIVA® in the European Union and EMD Serono announced that, in consultation
with Health Canada, it would suspend marketing of RAPTIVA® in Canada. In March 2009, Merck
Serono Australia, following a recommendation from the TGA, announced that it was withdrawing
RAPTIVA® from the Australian market. In the second quarter of 2009, Genentech announced and
carried out a phased voluntary withdrawal of RAPTIVA® from the U.S. market, based on the
association of RAPTIVA® with an increased risk of PML. As a result, sales of RAPTIVA® ceased in
the second quarter of 2009.

In March 2004, we announced we had agreed to collaborate with Chiron Corporation (now Novartis)
for the development and commercialization of antibody products for the treatment of cancer. In April
2005, we announced the initiation of clinical testing of the first product candidate out of the
collaboration, HCD122, an anti-CD40 antibody, in patients with advanced chronic lymphocytic
leukemia. In October 2005, we announced the initiation of the second clinical trial of HCD122 in
patients with multiple myeloma. In November 2008, we announced the restructuring of this product
development collaboration, which involved six development programs including the ongoing HCD122
and LFA102 programs. In exchange for cash and debt reduction on our existing loan facility with
Novartis, Novartis has control over the HCD122 and LFA102 programs and the additional ongoing
program, as well as the right to expand the development of these programs into additional indications
outside of oncology.

In March 2005, we entered into a contract with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases (“NIAID”) to produce three monoclonal antibodies designed to protect United States citizens
against the harmful effects of botulinum neurotoxin used in bioterrorism. In July 2006, we entered into
an additional contract with NIAID for the development of an appropriate formulation for human
administration of these three antibodies in a single injection. In September 2008, we announced that we
were awarded an additional contract with NIAID to support our on-going development of drug
candidates toward clinical trials in the treatment of botulism poisoning. In October 2011, we
announced we had been awarded an additional contract with NIAID to develop broad-spectrum
antitoxins for the treatment of human botulism poisoning.

In December 2010, we entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Servier, to jointly
develop and commercialize gevokizumab in multiple indications. Under the terms of the agreement,
Servier has worldwide rights to diabetes and cardiovascular disease indications and rights outside the
U.S. and Japan to Behçet’s uveitis and other inflammatory and oncology indications. We retain
development and commercialization rights for Behçet’s uveitis and other inflammatory disease and
oncology indications in the U.S. and Japan, and have an option to reacquire rights to diabetes and
cardiovascular disease indications from Servier in these territories. Should we exercise this option, we
will be required to pay Servier an option fee and partially reimburse their incurred development
expenses. The agreement contains customary termination rights relating to matters such as material
breach by either party, safety issues and patents. Servier also has a unilateral right to terminate the
agreement on a country-by-country basis or in its entirety on six months’ notice.

In December 2010, we also entered into a loan agreement with Servier, which provides for an advance
of up to €15.0 million and was fully funded in January 2011 with the proceeds converting to
approximately $19.5 million using the January 13, 2011 Euro to USD exchange rate. This loan is
secured by an interest in our intellectual property rights to all gevokizumab indications worldwide,
excluding the U.S. and Japan. The loan has a final maturity date in 2016; however, after a specified
period prior to final maturity, the loan is required to be repaid (i) at Servier’s option, by applying up to
a significant percentage of any milestone or royalty payments owed by Servier under our collaboration
agreement and (ii) using a significant percentage of any upfront, milestone or royalty payments we
receive from any third party collaboration or development partner for rights to gevokizumab in the U.S.
and/or Japan. In addition, the loan becomes immediately due and payable upon certain customary
events of default. At December 31, 2011, the €15.0 million outstanding principal balance under this
loan agreement would have equaled approximately $19.4 million using the December 31, 2011 Euro to
USD exchange rate.

In December 2011, we entered into a loan agreement with GECC, under which GECC agreed to make
a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $10 million to XOMA (US) LLC, our wholly owned
subsidiary, and upon execution of the loan agreement, GECC funded the term loan. The term loan is
guaranteed by us and our two other principal subsidiaries, XOMA Ireland Limited and XOMA
Technology Ltd. As security for our obligations under the loan agreement, we, XOMA (US) LLC,
XOMA Ireland Limited and XOMA Technology Ltd. each granted a security interest pursuant to a

33

guaranty, pledge and security agreement in substantially all of our existing and after-acquired assets,
excluding our intellectual property assets (such as those relating to our gevokizumab and anti-botulism
products). We are required to repay the principal amount of the Term Loan over a period of 42
consecutive equal monthly installments of principal and accrued interest. The term loan matures on
June 30, 2015, and at maturity, we will make an additional payment equal to 5% of the term loan
(“Final Payment Fee”). The loan agreement contains customary representations and warranties and
customary affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on the ability to incur
indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, dispose of assets, enter into transactions with affiliates
and amend existing material agreements, in each case subject to various exceptions. In addition, the
loan agreement contains customary events of default that entitle GECC to cause any or all of the
indebtedness under the loan agreement to become immediately due and payable. The events of default
include any event of default under a material agreement or certain other indebtedness. We may
voluntarily prepay the term loan in full, but not in part, and any voluntary and certain mandatory
prepayments are subject to a prepayment premium of 3% in the first year of the loan, 2% in the second
year and 1% thereafter, with certain exceptions. We will also be required to pay the Final Payment Fee
in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayment. Pursuant to the loan agreement, we issued
to GECC unregistered stock purchase warrants, which entitle GECC to purchase up to an aggregate of
263,158 unregistered shares of XOMA common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.14 per share, are
immediately exercisable and expire on December 30, 2016.

•

Effective in January 2012, we entered into an amended and restated agreement with Servier for the
U.S. commercialization rights to ACEON® and the development and commercialization in the U.S. of
up to three products combining perindopril with other cardiovascular drugs in fixed-dose combinations,
or FDCs. This agreement, together with a related trademark license agreement, provides us with
exclusive U.S. rights to ACEON® and the first FDC product, and options on two additional FDCs. The
arrangement also provides that Servier will supply to us, and we will purchase exclusively from
Servier, the active ingredients in ACEON® and the FDCs, in some cases for a limited period. The
agreement contains customary termination rights relating to matters such as material breach by either
party, insolvency of either party or safety issues. Each party also has the right to terminate the
arrangement if the first FDC product does not receive FDA approval by December 31, 2014. Servier
also has the right to terminate the arrangement if certain aspects of our commercialization strategy are
not successful and Servier does not consent to an alternative strategy or, as to the FDCs, if we breach
our obligations to certain of our service providers.

• We have licensed our bacterial cell expression technology, an enabling technology used to discover and

screen, as well as develop and manufacture, recombinant antibodies and other proteins for commercial
purposes, to over 60 companies. As of March 12, 2012, we were aware of two antibody products
manufactured using this technology that have received FDA approval, Genentech’s LUCENTIS®
(ranibizumab injection) for treatment of neovascular wet age-related macular degeneration and UCB’s
CIMZIA® (certolizumab pegol) for treatment of Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis. In the third
quarter of 2009, we sold our LUCENTIS® royalty interest to Genentech. In the third quarter of 2010,
we sold our CIMZIA® royalty interest.

Because our collaborators, licensees, suppliers and contractors are independent third parties, they may be

subject to different risks than we are and have significant discretion in, and different criteria for, determining the
efforts and resources they will apply related to their agreements with us. If these collaborators, licensees,
suppliers and contractors do not successfully perform the functions for which they are responsible, we may not
have the capabilities, resources or rights to do so on our own.

We do not know whether we, our collaborators or licensees will successfully develop and market any of the
products that are or may become the subject of any of our collaboration or licensing arrangements. In some cases
these arrangements provide for funding solely by our collaborators or licensees, and in other cases, such as our
arrangement with Servier for gevokizumab, all of the funding for certain projects and a significant portion of the

34

funding for other projects is to be provided by our collaborator or licensee. Even when we have a collaborative
relationship, other circumstances may prevent it from resulting in successful development of marketable
products. In addition, third party arrangements such as ours also increase uncertainties in the related decision-
making processes and resulting progress under the arrangements, as we and our collaborators or licensees may
reach different conclusions, or support different paths forward, based on the same information, particularly when
large amounts of technical data are involved. Furthermore, our contracts with NIAID contain numerous standard
terms and conditions provided for in the applicable federal acquisition regulations and customary in many
government contracts. Uncertainty exists as to whether we will be able to comply with these terms and conditions
in a timely manner, if at all. In addition, we are uncertain as to the extent of NIAID’s demands and the flexibility
that will be granted to us in meeting those demands.

Although we continue to evaluate additional strategic alliances and potential partnerships, we do not know

whether or when any such alliances or partnerships will be entered into.

Products and technologies of other companies may render some or all of our products and product
candidates noncompetitive or obsolete.

Developments by others may render our products, product candidates, or technologies obsolete or
uncompetitive. Technologies developed and utilized by the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are
continuously and substantially changing. Competition in antibody-based technologies is intense and expected to
increase in the future as a number of established biotechnology firms and large chemical and pharmaceutical
companies advance in these fields. Many of these competitors may be able to develop products and processes
competitive with or superior to our own for many reasons, including that they may have:

•

•

•

•

•

significantly greater financial resources,

larger research and development and marketing staffs,

larger production facilities,

entered into arrangements with, or acquired, biotechnology companies to enhance their capabilities, or

extensive experience in preclinical testing and human clinical trials.

These factors may enable others to develop products and processes competitive with or superior to our own

or those of our collaborators. In addition, a significant amount of research in biotechnology is being carried out in
universities and other non-profit research organizations. These entities are becoming increasingly interested in
the commercial value of their work and may become more aggressive in seeking patent protection and licensing
arrangements. Furthermore, many companies and universities tend not to announce or disclose important
discoveries or development programs until their patent position is secure or, for other reasons, later; as a result,
we may not be able to track development of competitive products, particularly at the early stages. Positive or
negative developments in connection with a potentially competing product may have an adverse impact on our
ability to raise additional funding on acceptable terms. For example, if another product is perceived to have a
competitive advantage, or another product’s failure is perceived to increase the likelihood that our product will
fail, then investors may choose not to invest in us on terms we would accept or at all.

The examples below pertain to competitive events in the market which we review quarterly and are not

intended to be representative of all existing competitive events.

Gevokizumab

We, in collaboration with Servier, are developing gevokizumab, a potent anti-inflammatory monoclonal

antibody targeting IL-1 beta. Other companies are developing other products based on the same or similar
therapeutic targets as gevokizumab and these products may prove more effective than gevokizumab. We are
aware that:

•

Novartis markets and is developing Ilaris® (canakinumab, ACZ885), a fully human monoclonal
antibody that selectively binds to and neutralizes IL-1 beta. Since 2009, canakinumab has been

35

approved in over 50 countries for the treatment of children and adults suffering from Cryopyrin-
Associated Periodic Syndrome (“CAPS”). Novartis has filed for regulatory approval of canakinumab in
the U.S. and Europe for the treatment acute attacks in gouty arthritis. In August 2011, Novartis
announced that the FDA had issued a Complete Response letter requesting additional information,
including clinical data to evaluate the benefit risk profile of canakinumab in refractory gouty arthritis
patients. In September 2011, Novartis announced positive results of a pivotal Phase 3 trial of
canakinumab in patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis and that it plans to seek regulatory
approval for this indication in 2012. Novartis is also pursuing other diseases in which IL-1 beta may
play a prominent role, such as systemic secondary prevention of cardiovascular events and diabetes.

Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”) is developing a monoclonal antibody to IL-1 beta in Phase 1
development for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. In June 2011, Lilly reported results from a
Phase 2 study of LY2189102 in 106 patients with Type 2 diabetes, showing a significant (p<0.05),
early reduction in C reactive protein, moderate reduction in HbA1c and anti-inflammatory effects. We
do not know whether LY2189102 remains in development.

In 2008, Swedish Orphan Biovitrum obtained from Amgen the global exclusive rights to Kineret®
(anakinra) for rheumatoid arthritis as currently indicated in its label. In November 2009, the agreement
regarding Swedish Orphan Biovitrum’s Kineret® license was expanded to include certain orphan
indications. Kineret® is an IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) which has been evaluated in multiple IL-1
mediated diseases, including indications we are considering for gevokizumab. In addition to other
on-going studies, a proof-of-concept clinical trial in the United Kingdom investigating Kineret® in
patients with a certain type of myocardial infarction, or heart attack, has been completed. In August
2010, Biovitrum announced that the FDA had granted orphan drug designation to Kineret® for the
treatment of CAPS.

In February 2008, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Regeneron”) announced it had received
marketing approval from the FDA for ARCALYST® (rilonacept) Injection for Subcutaneous Use, an
interleukin-1 blocker or IL-1 Trap, for the treatment of CAPS, including Familial Cold Auto-
inflammatory Syndrome and Muckle-Wells Syndrome in adults and children 12 and older. In
September 2009, Regeneron announced that rilonacept was approved in the European Union for
CAPS. In June 2010 and February 2011, Regeneron announced positive results of two Phase 3 clinical
trials of rilonacept in gout. In November 2011, Regeneron announced that the FDA had accepted for
review Regeneron’s supplemental BLA for ARCALYST® for the prevention and treatment of gout.

Amgen has been developing AMG 108, a fully-human monoclonal antibody that targets inhibition of
the action of IL-1. In April 2008, Amgen discussed results from a Phase 2 study in rheumatoid
arthritis. AMG 108 showed statistically significant improvement in the signs and symptoms of
rheumatoid arthritis and was well tolerated. In January 2011, MedImmune, the worldwide biologics
unit for AstraZeneca PLC, announced that Amgen granted it rights to develop AMG 108 worldwide
except in Japan.

In June 2009, Cytos Biotechnology AG announced the initiation of an ascending dose Phase 1/2a study
of CYT013-IL1bQb, a therapeutic vaccine targeting IL-1 beta, in Type 2 diabetes. In 2010, this study
was extended to include two additional groups of patients.

(mycophenalate sodium) and Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.—Sirolimus (rapamycin).

Perindopril

We are currently selling ACEON, an angiotensin converting enzyme (“ACE”) inhibitor, and developing
FDC1, a fixed-dose combination product candidate comprised of perindopril arginine and amlodipine besylate, a
calcium channel blocker.

The ACE inhibitor market is highly genericized with all options being available generically. We are aware

that:

•

•

The number one product (based on annual sales) within the ACE inhibitor category is lisinopril,
formerly marketed by Astra-Zeneca Pharmaceuticals LP under the brands ZESTRIL® or Prinivil®.

There are multiple options in the fixed-dose combination market combining ACE inhibitors with
diuretics, and some options combining an ACE inhibitor with a calcium channel blocker. Current
options with a calcium channel blocker are benazepril/amlodipine, formerly marketed by Novartis
Pharmaceuticals as Lotrel®, and trandolapril/verapamil, formerly marketed by Abbot Laboratories as
Tarka®.

ACE inhibitors are a segment of the larger Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System, or RAAS, market. This
market is comprised of ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). Both classes act on the RAAS
in different ways to control blood pressure. We are aware that:

•

The most successful of the ARBs (in terms of annual sales) is valsartan, trade name Diovan®, which is
marketed by Novartis. This compound, along with other ARBs, has been developed in multiple fixed-
dose combination products: with a diuretic, a calcium channel blocker (amlodipine) and as a triple
combining all three.

Our perindopril franchise will compete directly with fixed-dose combinations containing an ACE inhibitor

and secondarily with fixed-dose combinations containing an ARB.

XOMA 3AB

We are also developing XOMA 3AB, a combination, or cocktail, of antibodies designed to neutralize the
most potent of botulinum toxins. Other companies are developing other products targeting botulism poisoning
and these products may prove more effective than XOMA 3AB. We are aware that:

•

•

Cangene Corporation has a contract with the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, expected
to be for $423.0 million, to manufacture and supply an equine heptavalent botulism anti-toxin.

Emergent BioSolutions, Inc. is currently in development of a botulism immunoglobulin candidate that
may compete with our anti-botulinum neurotoxin monoclonal antibodies.

Manufacturing risks and inefficiencies may adversely affect our ability to manufacture products for
ourselves or others.

To the extent we continue to provide manufacturing services for our own benefit or to third parties, we are
subject to manufacturing risks. Additionally, unanticipated fluctuations in customer requirements have led and
may continue to lead to manufacturing inefficiencies, which if significant could lead to an impairment on our
long-lived assets or restructuring activities. We must utilize our manufacturing operations in compliance with
regulatory requirements, in sufficient quantities and on a timely basis, while maintaining acceptable product
quality and manufacturing costs. Additional resources and changes in our manufacturing processes may be
required for each new product, product modification or customer or to meet changing regulatory or third party
requirements, and this work may not be successfully or efficiently completed.

Manufacturing and quality problems may arise in the future to the extent we continue to perform these

manufacturing activities for our own benefit or for third parties. Consequently, our development goals or
milestones may not be achieved in a timely manner or at a commercially reasonable cost, or at all. In addition, to
the extent we continue to make investments to improve our manufacturing operations, our efforts may not yield
the improvements that we expect.

37

Failure of our products to meet current Good Manufacturing Practices standards may subject us to delays
in regulatory approval and penalties for noncompliance.

Our contract manufacturers are required to produce ACEON® and our clinical product candidates under
current Good Manufacturing Practices, or cGMP, in order to meet acceptable standards for use in our clinical
trials and for commercial sale, as applicable. If such standards change, the ability of contract manufacturers to
produce ACEON® and our product candidates on the schedule we require for our clinical trials or to meet
commercial requirements may be affected. In addition, contract manufacturers may not perform their obligations
under their agreements with us or may discontinue their business before the time required by us to successfully
produce clinical and commercial supplies of ACEON® and our product candidates. We and our contract
manufacturers are subject to pre-approval inspections and periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and
corresponding state and foreign authorities to ensure strict compliance with cGMP and other applicable
government regulations and corresponding foreign standards. We do not have control over a third-party
manufacturer’s compliance with these regulations and standards. Any difficulties or delays in our contractors’
manufacturing and supply of ACEON® and our product candidates or any failure of our contractors to maintain
compliance with the applicable regulations and standards could increase our costs, cause us to lose revenue,
make us postpone or cancel clinical trials, prevent or delay regulatory approval by the FDA and corresponding
state and foreign authorities, prevent the import and/or export of ACEON® and our product candidates, or cause
ACEON® and any of our product candidates that may be approved for commercial sale to be recalled or
withdrawn.

Because many of the companies we do business with are also in the biotechnology sector, the volatility of
that sector can affect us indirectly as well as directly.

As a biotechnology company that collaborates with other biotechnology companies, the same factors that
affect us directly can also adversely impact us indirectly by affecting the ability of our collaborators, partners and
others we do business with to meet their obligations to us and reduce our ability to realize the value of the
consideration provided to us by these other companies.

For example, in connection with our licensing transactions relating to our bacterial cell expression

technology, we have in the past and may in the future agree to accept equity securities of the licensee in payment
of license fees. The future value of these or any other shares we receive is subject both to market risks affecting
our ability to realize the value of these shares and more generally to the business and other risks to which the
issuer of these shares may be subject.

As we do more business internationally, we will be subject to additional political, economic and regulatory
uncertainties.

We may not be able to successfully operate in any foreign market. We believe that, because the

pharmaceutical industry is global in nature, international activities will be a significant part of our future business
activities and that, when and if we are able to generate income, a substantial portion of that income will be
derived from product sales and other activities outside the United States. Foreign regulatory agencies often
establish standards different from those in the United States, and an inability to obtain foreign regulatory
approvals on a timely basis could put us at a competitive disadvantage or make it uneconomical to proceed with a
product or product candidate’s development. International operations and sales may be limited or disrupted by:

•

•

•

•

•

•

imposition of government controls,

export license requirements,

political or economic instability,

trade restrictions,

changes in tariffs,

restrictions on repatriating profits,

38

•

•

•

exchange rate fluctuations,

withholding and other taxation, and

difficulties in staffing and managing international operations.

We are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risks.

We are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risks because substantially all of our revenues and

operating expenses are paid in U.S. dollars, but we pay interest and principal obligations with respect to our loan
from Servier in Euros. To the extent that the U.S. dollar declines in value against the Euro, the effective cost of
servicing our Euro-denominated debt will be higher. Changes in the exchange rate result in foreign currency
gains or losses. Although we have managed some of our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates
by entering into foreign exchange option contracts, there can be no assurance that foreign currency fluctuations
will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. In
addition, our foreign exchange option contracts are re-valued at each financial reporting period, which may also
result in gains or losses from time to time.

If we and our partners are unable to protect our intellectual property, in particular our patent protection
for our principal products, product candidates and processes, and prevent its use by third parties, our
ability to compete in the market will be harmed, and we may not realize our profit potential.

We rely on patent protection, as well as a combination of copyright, trade secret, and trademark laws to

protect our proprietary technology and prevent others from duplicating our products or product
candidates. However, these means may afford only limited protection and may not:

•

•

•

prevent our competitors from duplicating our products,

prevent our competitors from gaining access to our proprietary information and technology, or

permit us to gain or maintain a competitive advantage.

Because of the length of time and the expense associated with bringing new products to the marketplace, we
and our collaboration and development partners hold and are in the process of applying for a number of patents in
the United States and abroad to protect our product candidates and important processes and also have obtained or
have the right to obtain exclusive licenses to certain patents and applications filed by others. However, the mere
issuance of a patent is not conclusive as to its validity or its enforceability. The United States Federal Courts or
equivalent national courts or patent offices elsewhere may invalidate our patents or find them unenforceable. In
addition, the laws of foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights effectively or to the same
extent as the laws of the United States. If our intellectual property rights are not adequately protected, we may
not be able to commercialize our technologies, products, or services, and our competitors could commercialize
our technologies, which could result in a decrease in our sales and market share that would harm our business
and operating results. Specifically, the patent position of biotechnology companies generally is highly uncertain
and involves complex legal and factual questions. The legal standards governing the validity of biotechnology
patents are in transition, and current defenses as to issued biotechnology patents may not be adequate in the
future. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to:

•

•

•

whether any pending or future patent applications held by us will result in an issued patent, or that if
patents are issued to us, that such patents will provide meaningful protection against competitors or
competitive technologies,

whether competitors will be able to design around our patents or develop and obtain patent protection
for technologies, designs or methods that are more effective than those covered by our patents and
patent applications, or

the extent to which our product candidates could infringe on the intellectual property rights of others,
which may lead to costly litigation, result in the payment of substantial damages or royalties, and/or
prevent us from using technology that is essential to our business.

39

We have established a portfolio of patents, both United States and foreign, related to our bacterial cell
expression technology, including claims to novel promoter sequences, secretion signal sequences, compositions
and methods for expression and secretion of recombinant proteins from bacteria, including immunoglobulin gene
products. Most of the more important European patents in our bacterial cell expression patent portfolio expired in
July of 2008 or earlier.

If certain patents issued to others are upheld or if certain patent applications filed by others issue and are
upheld, we may require licenses from others in order to develop and commercialize certain potential products
incorporating our technology or we may become involved in litigation to determine the proprietary rights of
others. These licenses, if required, may not be available on acceptable terms, and any such litigation may be
costly and may have other adverse effects on our business, such as inhibiting our ability to compete in the
marketplace and absorbing significant management time.

Due to the uncertainties regarding biotechnology patents, we also have relied and will continue to rely upon

trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological advancement to develop and maintain our competitive
position. All of our employees have signed confidentiality agreements under which they have agreed not to use
or disclose any of our proprietary information. Research and development contracts and relationships between us
and our scientific consultants and potential customers provide access to aspects of our know-how that are
protected generally under confidentiality agreements. These confidentiality agreements may be breached or may
not be enforced by a court. To the extent proprietary information is divulged to competitors or to the public
generally, such disclosure may adversely affect our ability to develop or commercialize our products by giving
others a competitive advantage or by undermining our patent position.

Litigation regarding intellectual property can be costly and expose us to risks of counterclaims against us.

We may be required to engage in litigation or other proceedings to protect our intellectual property. The cost

to us of this litigation, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. Such litigation could also divert
management’s attention and resources. In addition, if this litigation is resolved against us, our patents may be
declared invalid, and we could be held liable for significant damages. In addition, we may be subject to a claim
that we are infringing another party’s patent. If such claim is resolved against us, we or our collaborators may be
enjoined from developing, manufacturing, selling or importing products, processes or services unless we obtain a
license from the other party.

Such license may not be available on reasonable terms, thus preventing us from using these products,

processes or services and adversely affecting our revenue.

We may be unable to effectively price our products or obtain adequate reimbursement for sales of our
products, which would prevent our products from becoming profitable.

If we or our third party collaborators or licensees succeed in bringing our product candidates to the market,
they may not be considered cost-effective, and reimbursement to the patient may not be available or may not be
sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive basis. In both the United States and elsewhere, sales of
medical products and treatments are dependent, in part, on the availability of reimbursement to the patient from
third-party payors, such as government and private insurance plans. Third-party payors are increasingly
challenging the prices charged for pharmaceutical products and services. Our business is affected by the efforts
of government and third-party payors to contain or reduce the cost of healthcare through various means. In the
United States, there have been and will continue to be a number of federal and state proposals to implement
government controls on pricing.

In addition, the emphasis on managed care in the United States has increased and will continue to increase
the pressure on the pricing of pharmaceutical products. We cannot predict whether any legislative or regulatory
proposals will be adopted or the effect these proposals or managed care efforts may have on our business.

40

Healthcare reform measures and other statutory or regulatory changes could adversely affect our
business.

In both the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions, there have been a number of legislative and
regulatory proposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could impact our business. In March 2010, the
U.S. Congress enacted and President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,
which includes a number of healthcare reform provisions. Assuming this law survives on-going calls for its
repeal, the reforms imposed by the law would significantly impact the pharmaceutical industry, most likely in the
area of pharmaceutical product pricing. While the law may increase the number of patients who have insurance
coverage for our products or product candidates, its cost containment measures could also adversely affect
reimbursement for our existing or potential products; however, the full effects of this law cannot be known until
these provisions are implemented and the relevant federal and state agencies issue applicable regulations or
guidance.

The pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are subject to extensive regulation, and from time to time

legislative bodies and governmental agencies consider changes to such regulations that could have significant
impact on industry participants. For example, in light of certain highly-publicized safety issues regarding certain
drugs that had received marketing approval, the U.S. Congress has considered various proposals regarding drug
safety, including some which would require additional safety studies and monitoring and could make drug
development more costly. We are unable to predict what additional legislation or regulation, if any, relating to
safety or other aspects of drug development may be enacted in the future or what effect such legislation or
regulation would have on our business.

The business and financial condition of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are also affected by

the efforts of governments, third-party payors and others to contain or reduce the costs of healthcare to
consumers. In the United States and various foreign jurisdictions there have been, and we expect that there will
continue to be, a number of legislative and regulatory proposals aimed at changing the healthcare system, such as
proposals relating to the reimportation of drugs into the U.S. from other countries (where they are then sold at a
lower price) and government control of prescription drug pricing. The pendency or approval of such proposals
could result in a decrease in the share price of our common stock or limit our ability to raise capital or to obtain
strategic collaborations or licenses.

We are exposed to an increased risk of product liability claims, and a series of related cases is currently
pending against us.

The testing, marketing and sales of medical products entails an inherent risk of allegations of product
liability. In the event of one or more large, unforeseen awards of damages against us, our product liability
insurance may not provide adequate coverage. A significant product liability claim for which we were not
covered by insurance or indemnified by a third party would have to be paid from cash or other assets, which
could have an adverse affect on our business and the value of our common stock. To the extent we have
sufficient insurance coverage, such a claim would result in higher subsequent insurance rates. In addition,
product liability claims can have various other ramifications including loss of future sales opportunities,
increased costs associated with replacing products, and a negative impact on our goodwill and reputation, which
could also adversely affect our business and operating results. As examples, following are summaries of certain
product liability related complaints to which we are a party.

On April 9, 2009, a complaint was filed in the Superior Court of Alameda County, California, in a lawsuit

captioned Hedrick et al. v. Genentech, Inc. et al, Case No. 09-446158. The complaint asserts claims against
Genentech, us and others for alleged strict liability for failure to warn, strict product liability, negligence, breach
of warranty, fraudulent concealment, wrongful death and other claims based on injuries alleged to have occurred
as a result of three individuals’ treatment with RAPTIVA®. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and
punitive damages. Since then, additional complaints have been filed in the same court, bringing the total number
of filed cases to seventy seven. The cases have been consolidated as a coordinated proceeding. All of the
complaints allege the same claims and seek the same types of damages based on injuries alleged to have occurred

41

as a result of the plaintiffs’ treatment with RAPTIVA®. On January 31, 2011, the parties selected ten bellwether
cases to prepare for trial. On July 15, 2011, the Court dismissed with prejudice one of the bellwether cases, White
v. Genentech, Inc., et al, Case No. RG-09-484026. On September 8, 2011, the Court granted defendants’ Motions
for Summary Judgment in two bellwether cases, Guerrero (Case No. RG-10-518396) and Harwell (Case No.
RG-09-464039), and dismissed both cases. On September 19, 2011, the Court sustained defendants’ Demurrer to
another case (Young, Case No. RG-11-569879) and dismissed the complaint. On October 19, 2011, the Court
granted defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment in another bellwether case, Krawiec v. Genentech, Inc., et
al., Case No. RG10-524963, and dismissed the case. On December 15, 2011, the Court granted defendants’
Motions for Summary Judgment and dismissed these three bellwether cases: Davidson (Case No. RG10-
538635); Hilditch (Case No. RG10-538642); and Ortiz (Case No. RG09-484075). The first trial of a bellwether
case (Johnson, Case No. RG10-494957) has been set for June 4, 2012. Even though Genentech has agreed to
indemnify us in connection with these matters, there can be no assurance that these or other products liability
lawsuits will not result in liability to us or that our insurance or contractual arrangements will provide us with
adequate protection against such liabilities.

On August 4, 2010, a petition was filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas in a case captioned

McCall v. Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 10-09544. The defendants filed a Notice of Removal to the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Texas on September 3, 2010. The removed case is captioned McCall v.
Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 3:10-cv-01747-B. The petition asserts personal injury claims against Genentech, us
and others arising out of the plaintiff’s treatment with RAPTIVA®. The petition alleges claims based on
negligence, strict liability, misrepresentation and suppression, conspiracy, and actual and constructive fraud. The
petition seeks compensatory damages and punitive damages in an unspecified amount. On June 6, 2011, the
Court dismissed plaintiff’s claims of negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and conspiracy. The Court has issued a
scheduling order setting the case for trial between July 9 and August 9, 2012. Even though Genentech has agreed
to indemnify us in connection with these matters, there can be no assurance that these or other products liability
lawsuits will not result in liability to us or that our insurance or contractual arrangements will provide us with
adequate protection against such liabilities

On January 7, 2011, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Texas in a case captioned Massa v. Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 4:11CV70. On January 11, 2011, a complaint was
filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in a case captioned Sylvia, et al. v.
Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 1:11-cv-10054-MLW. On June 13, 2011, a complaint was filed in the Supreme Court
for the State of New York, Onondaga County. Defendants removed the case to the United States District Court
for the Northern District of New York on November 3, 2011. These three complaints allege the same claims
against Genentech, us and others and seek the same types of damages as the complaints filed in the Superior
Court of Alameda County, California referenced above. Even though Genentech has agreed to indemnify us in
connection with these matters, there can be no assurance that these or other products liability lawsuits will not
result in liability to us or that our insurance or contractual arrangements will provide us with adequate protection
against such liabilities.

On April 8, 2011, four complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

Michigan. The cases are captioned: Muniz v. Genentech, et al., 5:11-cv-11489-JCO-RSW; Tifenthal v.
Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11488-DPH-LJM; Blair v. Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11463-SFC-MJH; and Marsh v.
Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11462-RHC-MKM. The complaints allege the same claims against Genentech, us and
others and seek the same types of damages as the complaints filed in the Superior Court of Alameda County,
California referenced above. All four cases were transferred to the United States District Court for the Western
District of Michigan. On October 26, 2011, the Court granted the Motions to Dismiss filed by Genentech and the
Company in all four actions. On October 31, 2011, Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal in each case in the United
States Court of Appeal for the Sixth Circuit. Even though Genentech has agreed to indemnify us in connection
with these matters, there can be no assurance that these or other products liability lawsuits will not result in
liability to us or that our insurance or contractual arrangements will provide us with adequate protection against
such liabilities.

42

The loss of key personnel, including our Chief Executive Officer, could delay or prevent achieving our
objectives.

Our research, product development and business efforts could be adversely affected by the loss of one or
more key members of our scientific or management staff, particularly our executive officers: John Varian, our
Chief Executive Officer; Patrick J. Scannon, M.D., Ph.D., our Executive Vice President and Chief Scientific
Officer; Fred Kurland, our Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer; Christopher J. Margolin, our
Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary; and Paul D. Rubin, M.D., our Vice President, Clinical
Development and Chief Medical Officer. We currently have no key person insurance on any of our employees.

Our ability to use our net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax attributes will be substantially
limited by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, generally limits the ability of a corporation
that undergoes an “ownership change” to utilize its net operating loss carry-forwards (“NOLs”) and certain other
tax attributes against any taxable income in taxable periods after the ownership change. The amount of taxable
income in each taxable year after the ownership change that may be offset by pre-change NOLs and certain other
pre-change tax attributes is generally equal to the product of (a) the fair market value of the corporation’s
outstanding shares (or, in the case of a foreign corporation, the fair market value of items treated as connected
with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States) immediately prior to the ownership change and
(b) the long-term tax exempt rate (i.e., a rate of interest established by the IRS that fluctuates from month to
month). In general, an “ownership change” occurs whenever the percentage of the shares of a corporation owned,
directly or indirectly, by “5-percent shareholders” (within the meaning of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue
Code) increases by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of the shares of such corporation
owned, directly or indirectly, by such “5-percent shareholders” at any time over the preceding three years.

Based on our initial analysis under Section 382 (which subjects the amount of pre-change NOLs and certain
other pre-change tax attributes that can be utilized to an annual limitation), we experienced an ownership change
in 2009, which would substantially limit the future use of our pre-change NOLs and certain other pre-change tax
attributes per year. We have and will continue to evaluate alternative analyses permitted under Section 382 and
IRS notices in order to determine whether or not any ownership changes have occurred and may occur (and if so,
when they occurred) that would result in limitations on our NOLs or certain other tax attributes.

We may not realize the expected benefits of our initiatives to reduce costs across our operations, and we
may incur significant charges or write-downs as part of these efforts.

We have pursued and may continue to pursue a number of initiatives to reduce costs of our operations. In

January 2012, we implemented a workforce reduction of approximately 34% in order to improve our cost
structure. As a result, we expect to reduce ongoing internal spending by approximately $14 million in 2012
compared to the 2011 level. We also anticipate taking one-time charges for restructuring and related severance
costs totaling approximately $6.0 million during 2012, of which $3.5 million are expected to result in cash
charges and $3.8 million are expected to be taken in the first quarter of 2012.

We may not realize some or all of the expected benefits of our current and future initiatives to reduce costs.
In addition to restructuring or other charges, we may experience disruptions in our operations as a result of these
initiatives.

Because we are a relatively small biopharmaceutical company with limited resources, we may not be able
to attract and retain qualified personnel.

Our success in developing marketable products and achieving a competitive position will depend, in part, on

our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific and management personnel, particularly in areas requiring
specific technical, scientific or medical expertise. We had 188 employees as of March 12, 2012. As of April 6,
2012, upon the completion of our workforce reduction, we will employ 158 employees. We may require

43

additional experienced executive, accounting, research and development, legal, administrative and other
personnel from time to time in the future. There is intense competition for the services of these personnel,
especially in California. Moreover, we expect that the high cost of living in the San Francisco Bay Area, where
our headquarters and manufacturing facilities are located, may impair our ability to attract and retain employees
in the future. If we do not succeed in attracting new personnel and retaining and motivating existing personnel,
our operations may suffer and we may be unable to implement our current initiatives or grow effectively.

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of system failures.

Despite the implementation of security measures, our internal computer systems and those of our current

and any future collaborators, licensees, suppliers, contractors and consultants are vulnerable to damage from
cyber-attacks, computer viruses, unauthorized access, natural disasters, terrorism, war and telecommunication
and electrical failures. We could experience failures in our information systems and computer servers, which
could be the result of a cyber-attack and could result in an interruption of our normal business operations and
require substantial expenditure of financial and administrative resources to remedy. System failures, accidents or
security breaches can cause interruptions in our operations and can result in a material disruption of our
development programs, commercialization activities and other business operations. The loss of clinical trial data
from completed or future clinical trials could result in delays in our regulatory approval efforts and significantly
increase our costs to recover or reproduce the data. Similarly, we rely on third parties to supply components for
and manufacture our product and product candidates, conduct clinical trials of our product candidates and
warehouse and distribute ACEON®, and similar events relating to their computer systems could also have a
material adverse effect on our business. To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result in a
loss of, or damage to, our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary
information, we could incur liability and the development of gevokizumab, FDC1 or any of our other product
candidates and the commercialization of ACEON® could be delayed or otherwise adversely affected.

Calamities, power shortages or power interruptions at our Berkeley headquarters and manufacturing
facility could disrupt our business and adversely affect our operations, and could disrupt the businesses of
our customers.

Our principal operations are located in Northern California, including our corporate headquarters and
manufacturing facility in Berkeley, California. In addition, many of our collaborators and licensees are located in
California. All of these locations are in areas of seismic activity near active earthquake faults. Any earthquake,
terrorist attack, fire, power shortage or other calamity affecting our facilities or our customers’ facilities may
disrupt our business and could have material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We have a significant stockholder, which may limit other stockholders’ ability to influence corporate
matters and may give rise to conflicts of interest.

Entities controlled by Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker beneficially own approximately 30.6% of our

outstanding common stock. Accordingly, these entities may exert significant influence over us and any action
requiring the approval of the holders of our stock, including the election of directors and approval of significant
corporate transactions. These entities have indicated that they may be interested in nominating a member of our
board of directors at some future date, but that no decision has been made on whether or not to make such a
request. Furthermore, conflicts of interest could arise in the future between us, on the one hand, and these
entities, on the other hand, concerning potential competitive business activities, business opportunities, the
issuance of additional securities and other matters.

Our shareholder rights agreement and organizational documents contain provisions that may prevent
transactions that could be beneficial to our stockholders and may insulate our management from removal.

In February 2003, we adopted a new shareholder rights agreement (to replace the shareholder rights
agreement that had expired), which could make it considerably more difficult or costly for a person or group to
acquire control of us in a transaction that our Board of Directors opposes.

44

Our charter and by-laws:

•

•

require certain procedures to be followed and time periods to be met for any stockholder to propose
matters to be considered at annual meetings of stockholders, including nominating directors for
election at those meetings; and

authorize our Board of Directors to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock without stockholder
approval and to set the rights, preferences and other designations, including voting rights, of those
shares as the Board of Directors may determine.

In addition, we are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the

“DGCL”), that may prohibit large stockholders, in particular those owning 15% or more of our outstanding
common stock, from merging or combining with us.

These provisions of our shareholder rights agreement, our organizational documents and the DGCL, alone
or in combination with each other, may discourage transactions involving actual or potential changes of control,
including transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices to
holders of common stock, could limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to
be in their best interests, and could make it considerably more difficult for a potential acquirer to replace
management.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

Item 2.

Properties

Our corporate headquarters and development and manufacturing facilities are located in Berkeley and

Emeryville, California. We currently lease five buildings, and space in a sixth building, for which we have a
sublease tenant under contract through May 2014. These buildings house our research and development
laboratories, manufacturing facilities and office space. A separate pilot scale manufacturing facility is owned by
us. Our building leases expire in the period from 2013 to 2014 and total minimum lease payments due from
January 2012 until expiration of the leases are $12.6 million. We have the option to renew our lease agreements
for periods ranging from three to ten years.

On January 15, 2009, we announced a workforce reduction of approximately 42%. As a result, in the second

quarter of 2009, we vacated one of our leased buildings and recorded a restructuring charge of $0.5 million
primarily related to the net present value of the net future minimum lease payments at the cease-use date, less the
estimated future sublease income. Effective December 2010, we entered into a sublease agreement for this
building. The remaining liability related to this lease was $0.1 million and $0.2 million at December 31, 2011
and 2010, respectively.

Item 3.

Legal Proceedings

On April 9, 2009, a complaint was filed in the Superior Court of Alameda County, California, in a lawsuit

captioned Hedrick et al. v. Genentech, Inc. et al, Case No. 09-446158. The complaint asserts claims against
Genentech, us and others for alleged strict liability for failure to warn, strict product liability, negligence, breach
of warranty, fraudulent concealment, wrongful death and other claims based on injuries alleged to have occurred
as a result of three individuals’ treatment with RAPTIVA®. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and
punitive damages. Since then, additional complaints have been filed in the same court, bringing the total number
of filed cases to seventy seven. The cases have been consolidated as a coordinated proceeding. All of the
complaints allege the same claims and seek the same types of damages based on injuries alleged to have occurred
as a result of the plaintiffs’ treatment with RAPTIVA®. On January 31, 2011, the parties selected ten bellwether

45

cases to prepare for trial. On July 15, 2011, the Court dismissed with prejudice one of the bellwether cases, White
v. Genentech, Inc., et al, Case No. RG-09-484026. On September 8, 2011, the Court granted defendants’ Motions
for Summary Judgment in two bellwether cases, Guerrero (Case No. RG-10-518396) and Harwell (Case No.
RG-09-464039), and dismissed both cases. On September 19, 2011, the Court sustained defendants’ Demurrer to
another case (Young, Case No. RG-11-569879) and dismissed the complaint. On October 19, 2011, the Court
granted defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment in another bellwether case, Krawiec v. Genentech, Inc., et
al., Case No. RG10-524963, and dismissed the case. On December 15, 2011, the Court granted defendants’
Motions for Summary Judgment and dismissed these three bellwether cases: Davidson (Case No. RG10-
538635); Hilditch (Case No. RG10-538642); and Ortiz (Case No. RG09-484075). The first trial of a bellwether
case (Johnson, Case No. RG10-494957) has been set for June 4, 2012. Our agreement with Genentech provides
for an indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees by Genentech which we believe is applicable to these
matters. We believe the claims against us to be without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously.

On August 4, 2010, a petition was filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas in a case captioned

McCall v. Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 10-09544. The defendants filed a Notice of Removal to the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Texas on September 3, 2010. The removed case is captioned McCall v.
Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 3:10-cv-01747-B. The petition asserts personal injury claims against Genentech, us
and others arising out of the plaintiff’s treatment with RAPTIVA®. The petition alleges claims based on
negligence, strict liability, misrepresentation and suppression, conspiracy, and actual and constructive fraud. The
petition seeks compensatory damages and punitive damages in an unspecified amount. On June 6, 2011, the
Court dismissed plaintiff’s claims of negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and conspiracy. Our agreement with
Genentech provides for an indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees by Genentech which we believe is
applicable to this matter. We believe the claims against us to be without merit and intend to defend against them
vigorously. The Court has issued a scheduling order setting the case for trial between July 9 and August 9, 2012.

On January 7, 2011, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Texas in a case captioned Massa v. Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 4:11CV70. On January 11, 2011, a complaint was
filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in a case captioned Sylvia, et al. v.
Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 1:11-cv-10054-MLW. On June 13, 2011, a complaint was filed in the Supreme Court
for the State of New York, Onondaga County. Defendants removed the case to the United States District Court
for the Northern District of New York on November 3, 2011. These three complaints allege the same claims
against Genentech, us and others and seek the same types of damages as the complaints filed in the Superior
Court of Alameda County, California referenced above. Our agreement with Genentech provides for an
indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees by Genentech which we believe is applicable to these matters.
We believe the claims against us to be without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously.

On April 8, 2011, four complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

Michigan. The cases are captioned: Muniz v. Genentech, et al., 5:11-cv-11489-JCO-RSW; Tifenthal v.
Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11488-DPH-LJM; Blair v. Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11463-SFC-MJH; and Marsh v.
Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11462-RHC-MKM. The complaints allege the same claims against Genentech, us and
others and seek the same types of damages as the complaints filed in the Superior Court of Alameda County,
California referenced above. All four cases were transferred to the United States District Court for the Western
District of Michigan. On October 26, 2011, the Court granted the Motions to Dismiss filed by Genentech and the
Company in all four actions. On October 31, 2011, Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal in each case in the United
States Court of Appeal for the Sixth Circuit. Our agreement with Genentech provides for an indemnity of XOMA
and payment of legal fees by Genentech which we believe is applicable to this matter. We believe the claims
against us to be without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously.

We have paid no dividends in the past five years.

(1) 2010 includes a non-recurring fee of $4.0 million related to the sale of our CIMZIA® royalty interest to an
undisclosed buyer. 2009 includes a non-recurring fee of $25 million related to the sale of our LUCENTIS®
royalty interest to Genentech, Inc., a member of the Roche Group (“Genentech”). 2008 includes a
non-recurring fee from Novartis AG (“Novartis”) of $13.7 million relating to a restructuring of the existing
collaboration agreement.

(2) 2010 includes a loss associated with the $4.5 million paid in the first quarter of 2010 to the holders of

warrants issued in June 2009, upon modification of the terms.

51

(3) 2009 includes foreign income tax expense of $5.8 million recognized in connection with the expansion of

our existing collaboration with Takeda.

(4) The balance in 2011 increased due to the execution of the €15.0 million loan from Servier, which has a

principal balance equal to approximately $19.4 million using the December 31, 2011 Euro to USD exchange
rate, and the $10.0 million Term Loan from GECC. The balance as of December 31, 2008 includes $50.4
million from our term loan with Goldman Sachs, which we repaid in 2009. In May 2008, the Company
entered into a $55 million amended term loan facility with Goldman Sachs, paying off the remaining
balance on the term loan completed in November 2006. In addition, the outstanding principal on our
Novartis note was reduced by $7.5 million due to the restructure of our collaboration with Novartis. In 2007,
we eliminated the remaining $44.5 million in convertible debt issued in 2006.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We are a leader in the discovery and development of innovative antibody-based therapeutics. Our lead drug
candidate is gevokizumab (formerly XOMA 052), a humanized antibody that binds to the inflammatory cytokine
interleukin-1 beta (“IL-1 beta”). In collaboration with our partner, Les Laboratoires Servier (“Servier”),
gevokizumab is expected to enter global Phase 3 clinical development in 2012 for non-infectious uveitis (“NIU”)
and Behçet’s uveitis. We anticipate Servier will enter gevokizumab into a Phase 2 study in a cardiovascular
disease indication during 2012. Separately we have launched a Phase 2 proof-of-concept program for
gevokizumab to evaluate additional indications for further development, including a clinical trial in
moderate-to-severe inflammatory acne, which began enrolling patients in December 2011, and a clinical trial in
erosive osteoarthritis of the hand, for which we plan to initiate enrollment in the second quarter of 2012.

We have entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Servier to jointly develop and

commercialize gevokizumab in multiple indications. Gevokizumab is designed to inhibit the pro-inflammatory
cytokine IL-1 beta, which is believed to be a primary trigger of pathologic inflammation in multiple diseases.

Our proprietary preclinical pipeline includes classes of antibodies that activate or sensitize the insulin
receptor in vivo and represent potential new therapeutic approaches to the treatment of diabetes. We have
developed these and other antibodies using some or all of our ADAPT™ antibody discovery and development
platform, our ModulX™ technologies for generating allosterically modulating antibodies, and our OptimX™
technologies for optimizing biophysical properties of antibodies, including affinity, immunogenicity, stability
and manufacturability.

In January 2012, we announced that we had acquired U.S. rights to the perindopril franchise from Servier.
The agreement includes ACEON® (perindopril erbumine), a currently marketed angiotensin converting enzyme
(“ACE”) inhibitor, and a portfolio of three fixed-dose combination product candidates where perindopril is
combined with another active ingredient(s), such as a calcium channel blocker. The proprietary form of
perindopril in each of the combination product candidates provides patent protection until December 2023. We
assumed commercialization activities for ACEON® in January 2012 following the transfer from Servier’s
previous licensee. In late February 2012, we initiated enrollment in a Phase 3 trial for perindopril arginine and
amlodipine besylate, the first fixed-dose combination product candidate from the perindopril franchise we
acquired from Servier. Partial funding for the Phase 3 trial will be provided by Servier; the balance of study
expenses, consisting primarily of costs generated by our contract research organization, are expected to be paid
by us over time from any profits generated by our ACEON® sales.

Our biodefense initiatives currently include a $65.0 million multiple-year contract funded by the National

Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (“NIAID”), a part of the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”), to
support our ongoing development of anti-botulism antibody product candidates, of which the first, XOMA 3AB,

52

is in a Phase 1 clinical trial. This contract is the third that NIAID has awarded us for the development of
botulinum antitoxins. In October 2011, we announced that we had been awarded a fourth contract for up to $28.0
million over five years to develop broad-spectrum antitoxins for the treatment of human botulism poisoning,
bringing the program’s total potential awards to approximately $120 million. In January 2012, we announced that
we will complete NIAID biodefense contracts currently in place but will not actively pursue future contracts.
Should the government choose to acquire XOMA 3AB or other biodefense products in the future, we expect to
be able to provide these antibodies through an outside manufacturer.

We also have developed antibody product candidates with premier pharmaceutical companies including
Novartis AG (“Novartis”) and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”). Two antibodies developed
with Novartis, LFA102 and HCD122 (lucatumumab), are in Phase 1 and/or 2 clinical development by Novartis
for the potential treatment of breast or prostate cancer and hematological malignancies, respectively.

In December 2010, we entered into an agreement with Servier to jointly develop and commercialize
gevokizumab in multiple indications, which provided for a non-refundable upfront payment of $15.0
million that we received in January 2011. In connection with this agreement, Servier will fully fund the
first $50.0 million of future gevokizumab global clinical development and chemistry and
manufacturing controls (“CMC”) expenses, and 50% of further expenses for the Behçet’s uveitis
indication. Servier has agreed to include the NIU Phase 3 trial discussed below under the terms of the
collaboration agreement for Behçet’s uveitis discussed above so long as the European Medicines
Agency enables the results of the trial to be included in regulatory submissions in the EU. Based upon
the timing of anticipated regulatory interactions, we anticipate initiating the NIU Phase 3 trial in the
second quarter of 2012.
In January 2011, we received the full €15.0 million advance allowed under our loan agreement with
Servier dated December 30, 2010, converting to U.S. dollar proceeds of approximately $19.5 million.

In March 2011, we announced that our Phase 2b trial of gevokizumab in Type 2 diabetes in 421
patients did not achieve the primary endpoint of reduction in hemoglobin A1c (“HbA1c”) after six
monthly treatments with gevokizumab compared to placebo. Significant decreases were observed in
C-reactive protein (“CRP”), a biomarker for the risk of heart attack, stroke and other cardiovascular
diseases, in all dose groups versus placebo. In addition, significant improvements in high-density
lipoprotein (“HDL”), or “good” cholesterol, were observed in two of four gevokizumab dose groups
versus placebo. Gevokizumab was well-tolerated in this trial, with no significant differences in adverse
events between gevokizumab and placebo and no serious drug-related adverse events.

In June 2011, we announced top line trial results from our six-month Phase 2a trial in 74 patients where
gevokizumab was shown to be well-tolerated with no significant differences in adverse events between
gevokizumab and placebo and no serious drug-related adverse events. Evidence of biological activity
was observed including a reduction in CRP. There were no differences in glycemic control between the
drug and placebo groups as measured by HbA1c levels.

In November 2011, we announced an expansion of our gevokizumab program together with our
collaboration partner Servier. The expanded plan includes a global Phase 3 trial in NIU involving the
intermediate and/or posterior segments of the eye, including Behçet’s uveitis and a Phase 3 trial outside
the U.S. in Behçet’s uveitis.

In December 2011, we initiated a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of
gevokizumab for the treatment of inflammatory lesions seen in moderate to severe inflammatory acne
vulgaris. Approximately 170 patients will be randomized to receive one or two dose levels of
gevokizumab or placebo over a three-month period. Dosing in patients began in December 2011.

XMET Activating and Sensitizing Antibodies

•

In June 2011, we announced our discovery of two new classes of fully-human monoclonal antibodies,
XMetA and XMetS, which activate or sensitize the insulin receptor in vivo, each representing a distinct
new therapeutic approach to the treatment of patients with diabetes. Studies of XMetA demonstrated
that it reduced fasting blood glucose levels and improved glucose tolerance in a mouse model of
diabetes. After six weeks of treatment, there was a statistically significant reduction in HbA1c levels, a
standard measure of average blood glucose levels over time, in mice treated with XMetA compared to
a control group, and there was a statistically significant reduction in elevated non-HDL cholesterol
levels. Studies of XMetS showed enhanced insulin sensitivity and statistically significant
improvements in fasting blood glucose levels and glucose tolerance in mice treated with XMetS as
compared to a control group, and there was a statistically significant reduction in elevated non-HDL
cholesterol levels. These data were presented at the American Diabetes Association’s 71st Scientific
Sessions.

XOMA 3AB

•

•

In May 2011, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (“NIAID”), part of the National
Institutes of Health (“NIH”), informed us that it is initiating a Phase 1 trial of XOMA 3AB, a novel
formulation of three antibodies designed to prevent and treat botulism poisoning. This double-blind,
dose-escalation study in approximately 24 healthy volunteers is designed to assess the safety and
tolerability, and determine the pharmacokinetic profile, of XOMA 3AB.

In October 2011, we announced that NIAID had awarded us a new contract under Contract No.
HHSN272201100031C for up to $28.0 million over 5 years to develop broad-spectrum antitoxins for
the treatment of human botulism poisoning.

Management Change

•

On August 31, 2011, we announced that Steven B. Engle resigned as Chief Executive Officer,
President and Chairman of the Board of the Company. On January 4, 2012, the Company’s Board of
Directors appointed John Varian, a current Board member, as Chief Executive Officer after serving as
Interim Chief Executive Officer for five months. W. Denman Van Ness will continue to serve as
Chairman of the Board.

In 2011, we sold 821,386 shares of our common stock through Wm Smith & Co. (“Wm Smith”) and
McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (now known as MLV & Co. LLC, “MLV”) under our At Market
Issuance Sales Agreement dated October 26, 2010 (the “2010 ATM Agreement”), for aggregate gross
proceeds of $4.4 million, and 5,286,952 shares of our common stock through MLV under our At
Market Issuance Sales Agreement dated February 4, 2011 (the “2011 ATM Agreement”), for aggregate
gross proceeds of $11.3 million.

In April 2011, the 2,959 Series B convertible preference shares previously issued to Genentech, Inc.
were converted by Genentech into 254,560 shares of our common stock, and the associated liquidation
preference of $29.6 million was eliminated.

In May 2011, we entered into two foreign exchange options contracts in order to manage our foreign
currency exposure relating to principal and interest payments on our €15.0 million loan from Servier.
Upfront premiums paid on these contracts totaled $1.5 million.

In December 2011, we entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with General Electric
Capital Corporation (“GECC”) under which GECC agreed to make, and made, a term loan of $10
million. This loan accrues interest at a fixed rate of 11.71% per annum and is secured by substantially

54

all of our existing and after-acquired assets, excluding our intellectual property assets. We are required
to repay the principal amount over a period of 42 consecutive equal monthly installments of principal
and accrued interest. The loan matures on June 30, 2015, at which time we will make an additional
payment equal to 5% of the loan. We also issued to GECC unregistered stock purchase warrants, which
entitle GECC to purchase up to an aggregate of 263,158 unregistered shares of XOMA common stock
at an exercise price equal to $1.14 per share. These warrants are immediately exercisable and expire on
December 30, 2016.

Other

•

Effective December 31, 2011, we changed our jurisdiction of incorporation from Bermuda to Delaware
and changed our name from XOMA Ltd. to XOMA Corporation. All outstanding common shares of
the former XOMA Ltd. automatically converted into XOMA Corporation common stock on a
one-for-one basis.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The accompanying discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based

upon our consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures, which have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements
requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various
other assumptions that we believe 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following policies to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial condition and

results of operations because they require us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments about matters that
are inherently uncertain.

Revenue Recognition

In March 2010, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605, Revenue Recognition was amended to define
a milestone and clarify that the milestone method of revenue recognition is a valid application of the proportional
performance model when applied to research or development arrangements. Accordingly, a company can make
an accounting policy election to recognize a payment that is contingent upon the achievement of a substantive
milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. This guidance was adopted effective
January 1, 2011 on a prospective basis and did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial
statements.

License and Collaborative Fees

Revenue from non-refundable license, technology access or other payments under license and collaborative
agreements where we have a continuing obligation to perform is recognized as revenue over the expected period
of the continuing performance obligation. We estimate the performance period at the inception of the
arrangement and re-evaluate it each reporting period. This re-evaluation may shorten or lengthen the period over
which the remaining revenue is recognized. Changes to these estimates are recorded on a prospective basis.

Milestone payments under collaborative and other arrangements are recognized as revenue upon completion
of the milestone event, once confirmation is received from the third party and collectability is reasonably assured.
This represents the culmination of the earnings process because we have no future performance obligations
related to the payment. Milestone payments that require a continuing performance obligation on our part are
recognized over the expected period of the continuing performance obligation. Amounts received in advance are
recorded as deferred revenue until the related milestone is completed.

55

Contract Revenue

Contract revenue for research and development involves our providing research and development and
manufacturing services to collaborative partners, biodefense contractors or others. Revenue for certain contracts
is accounted for by a proportional performance, or output-based, method where performance is based on
estimated progress toward elements defined in the contract. The amount of contract revenue and related costs
recognized in each accounting period are based on estimates of the proportional performance during the period.
Adjustments to estimates based on actual performance are recognized on a prospective basis and do not result in
reversal of revenue should the estimate to complete be extended.

In addition, revenue related to certain research and development contracts is billed based on actual costs
incurred by XOMA related to the contract, multiplied by full-time equivalent (“FTE”) rates plus a mark-up. The
FTE rates are developed based on our best estimates of labor, materials and overhead costs. For certain contracts,
such as our government contracts, the FTE rates are agreed upon at the beginning of the contract and are subject
to review or audit by the contracting party at any time. Under our contracts with NIAID, a part of the NIH, we
bill using NIH provisional rates and thus are subject to future audits at the discretion of NIAID’s contracting
office. These audits can result in an adjustment to revenue previously reported.

In 2011, the NIH conducted an audit of our actual data for period from January 1, 2007 through

December 31, 2009 and developed final billing rates for this period. As a result, we retroactively applied these
NIH rates to the invoices from this period resulting in an increase in revenue of $3.4 million from the NIH,
excluding $0.9 million billed to the NIH in 2010 resulting from our performance of a comparison of 2009
calculated costs incurred and costs billed to the government under provisional rates. Final rates will be settled
through negotiations with the NIH. This revenue has been deferred and will be recognized upon completion of
negotiations with and approval by the NIH.

Upfront fees are recognized ratably over the expected benefit period under the arrangement. Given the
uncertainties of research and development collaborations, significant judgment is required to determine the
duration of the arrangement. We have $1.1 million of deferred up-front fees related to one research and
collaboration agreement that is being amortized over one year.

Stock-based Compensation

The valuation of stock-based compensation awards is determined at the date of grant using the Black-
Scholes option pricing model (the “Black-Scholes Model”). This model requires inputs such as the expected term
of the option, expected volatility and risk-free interest rate. Further, the forfeiture rate also impacts the amount of
aggregate compensation. These inputs are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to
develop. To establish an estimate of expected term, we consider the vesting period and contractual period of the
award and our historical experience of stock option exercises, post-vesting cancellations and volatility. To
establish an estimate of forfeiture rate, we consider our historical experience of option forfeitures and
terminations. The risk-free rate is based on the yield available on United States Treasury zero-coupon issues. We
review our valuation assumptions quarterly and, as a result, it is likely we will change our valuation assumptions
used to value stock-based awards granted in future periods. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized
ratably over the requisite service period.

Income Taxes

The application of income tax law and regulations is inherently complex. Interpretations and guidance
surrounding income tax laws and regulations change over time. As such, changes in our subjective assumptions
and judgments can materially affect amounts recognized in our financial statements.

We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740,
Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such

56

assets is more likely than not. Based upon the weight of available evidence, which includes our historical
operating performance and carry-back potential, we have determined that total deferred tax assets should be fully
offset by a valuation allowance.

Warrants

We have issued warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in connection with financing activities.

We account for some of these warrants as a liability at fair value and others as equity at fair value. The fair value
of the outstanding warrants is estimated using the Black-Scholes Model. The Black-Scholes Model requires
inputs such as the expected term of the warrants, share price volatility and risk-free interest rate. These inputs are
subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. For the estimate of the expected
term, we use the full remaining contractual term of the warrant. We base our estimate of expected volatility on
our historical volatility. The assumptions associated with warrant liabilities are reviewed each reporting period
and changes in the estimated fair value of these warrant liabilities are recognized in other income (expense).

License and Collaborative Fees

License and collaborative fee revenue includes fees and milestone payments related to the out-licensing of
our products and technologies. License and collaborative fee revenue in 2011 was $18.0 million, compared with
$2.2 million in 2010 and $43.8 million in 2009. The primary components of license and collaboration fee
revenue in 2011 were $16.2 million in revenue recognized related to the collaboration and loan agreements with
Servier to jointly develop and commercialize gevokizumab in multiple indications. In addition, we recognized
two milestone payments for an aggregate amount of $1.0 million and $0.8 million in up-front fees and annual
maintenance fees relating to various out-licensing arrangements.

The primary components of license and collaboration fee revenue in 2010 were four milestone payments

recognized for an aggregate amount of $1.2 million, including one milestone from AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
(“AVEO”) for $0.8 million resulting from AVEO’s initiation of a Phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate its AV-299
antibody. In addition, we recognized $1.0 million in up-front fees and annual maintenance fees relating to
various out-licensing arrangements.

The primary components of license and collaborative fee revenue in 2009 were $28.1 million in revenue
recognized related to the expansion of our collaboration agreement with Takeda in February 2009 and $14.1
million in total revenue, including ancillary services provided, related to two antibody discovery collaboration
agreements entered into with Arana Therapeutics Limited (“Arana”) and The Chemo-Sero-Therapeutic Research
Institute, a Japanese research foundation known as Kaketsuken in September and October 2009. We also
recognized $1.6 million of license and collaborative fee revenue in 2009 related to up-front fees, annual
maintenance fees and milestone payments from various out-licensing arrangements.

57

The generation of future revenue related to license fees and collaborative arrangements is dependent on our
ability to attract new licensees to our antibody and BCE technologies and new collaboration partners. We expect
license and collaboration fee revenue to decrease in 2012 compared to 2011 levels.

Contract and Other Revenue

Contract and other revenue includes agreements where we provide contracted research and development
services to our collaboration partners, including Servier and NIAID. The following table shows the activity in

The 2011 increase in contract revenue was primarily due to gevokizumab clinical development and CMC
activity under the collaboration with Servier. Partially offsetting this increase were decreases in revenue from our
NIAID Contract No. HHSN272200800028C (“NIAID 3”) due to decreased activity under the contract, our
Takeda contracts as a result of the cessation of certain Takeda programs in 2010, and our SRI International
subcontract awards due to the successful completion of the services we had agreed to perform in 2011.

The 2010 increase in contract revenue was primarily due to increased activity under our NIAID 3 and SRI

International contracts. Partially offsetting these increases are decreases in revenue from our Schering-Plough
Research Institute, a division of Schering Corporation, now a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. (referred to herein
as “Merck/Schering-Plough”) and Takeda contracts as a result of the cessation of certain Merck/Schering-Plough
programs in 2009 and certain Takeda programs in both 2009 and 2010. Also, the decrease in revenue from our
Manufacturing and Technology Transfer Agreement with Novartis was due to the completion of the work under
this agreement in the third quarter of 2009.

Based on expected levels of revenue generating activity related to our Servier and NIAID contracts, we

expect contract and other revenue to decrease in 2012 compared to 2011 levels.

We defer revenue until all requirements under our revenue recognition policy are met. In 2011, we deferred

revenue from contracts including Servier, NIH and Takeda. In 2010, we deferred revenue from contracts
including Servier, NIH, Takeda, Merck/Schering-Plough and AVEO. In 2009, we deferred revenue from
contracts including Takeda, Merck/Schering-Plough and Novartis.

58

We expect a significant portion of the $13.2 million in deferred revenue will be recognized in 2012 with the

remainder to be earned during 2013 through 2015. Future amounts may be affected by additional consideration
received, if any, under existing or any future licensing or other collaborative arrangements as well as changes in
the estimated period of obligation or services to be provided under the arrangements.

Royalties

Revenue from royalties was $0.2 million in 2011 compared with $4.3 million in 2010 and $29.1 million in

2009. The decrease in royalties in 2011 was primarily due to the sale of our CIMZIA® royalty interest for net
proceeds of $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2010. Royalties earned from sales of CIMZIA® were $0.5 million
in 2010, compared with $0.5 million in 2009. We will not receive any further royalties on sales of CIMZIA®.

The decrease in royalties in 2010 was primarily due to the sale, during 2009, of our LUCENTIS® royalty

interest to Genentech for net proceeds of $22.3 million in September 2009. Additionally, the cessation of
royalties earned from sales of RAPTIVA® in the second quarter of 2009 further contributed to the decrease in our
revenue from royalties. Royalties earned from sales of LUCENTIS® and RAPTIVA® during 2009 were $5.1
million and $1.2 million, respectively. We will not receive any further royalties on sales of LUCENTIS® or
RAPTIVA®. Partially offsetting the decreases in revenue from royalties in 2010 was the sale of our CIMZIA®
royalty interest in the third quarter of 2010.

Research and Development Expenses

Biopharmaceutical development includes a series of steps, including in vitro and in vivo preclinical testing,
and Phase 1, 2 and 3 clinical studies in humans. Each of these steps is typically more expensive than the previous
step, but actual timing and the cost to us depends on the product being tested, the nature of the potential disease
indication and the terms of any collaborative arrangements with other companies. After successful conclusion of
all of these steps, regulatory filings for approval to market the products must be completed, including approval of
manufacturing processes and facilities for the product. Our research and development expenses currently include
costs of personnel, supplies, facilities and equipment, consultants, third party costs and other expenses related to
preclinical and clinical testing.

Research and development expenses were $68.1 million in 2011, compared with $77.4 million in 2010 and
$58.1 million in 2009. The decrease in research and development expenses of $9.3 million in 2011, as compared
to 2010, was primarily due to decreased spending on gevokizumab-related clinical trials.

The increase in research and development expenses of $19.3 million in 2010, as compared to 2009, was
primarily due to increased spending on gevokizumab related to the Phase 2 clinical program and spending on
NIAID 3 due to increased activity under the contract. Partially offsetting these increases in spending were
decreases in spending on Merck/Schering-Plough and Takeda-related contract activities due to the cessation of
certain discovery and development programs. In addition, there was decreased spending on Novartis-related
contract activities due to the completion of work under agreement in the third quarter of 2009. Research and
development expense in 2009 primarily reflects spending on development of gevokizumab, including Phase 1
and Phase 2 clinical trials, and spending on preclinical antibody discovery programs in several indications, and
on our contracts with NIAID 3, Takeda and SRI International.

Salaries and related personnel costs are a significant component of research and development expenses. We

recorded $34.3 million in research and development salaries and employee-related expenses in 2011, compared
with $29.7 million in 2010 and $26.8 million in 2009. Included in these expenses for 2011 were $27.7 million for
salaries and benefits, $2.9 million for bonus expense and $3.7 million for stock-based compensation, which is a
non-cash expense. The increase of $4.6 million in 2011, as compared to 2010, was primarily due to personnel
related costs in connection with increased gevokizumab clinical development and CMC activity under the
collaboration with Servier.

59

Included in these expenses for 2010 were $24.1 million for salaries and benefits, $3.3 million for bonus
expense and $2.3 million for stock-based compensation, which is a non-cash expense, compared with $22.2
million, $2.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively, in 2009. The $2.9 million increase in salaries and employee-
related expenses in 2010, as compared to 2009, was primarily due to higher salaries and related personnel costs
in connection with increased manufacturing activities and work related to NIAID 3.

Our research and development activities can be divided into earlier stage programs and later stage programs.

Earlier stage programs include molecular biology, process development, pilot-scale production and preclinical
testing. Also included in earlier stage programs are costs related to excess manufacturing capacity, which we
expect will decrease in 2012 due to our streamlining objectives to utilize a contract manufacturing organization.
Later stage programs include clinical testing, regulatory affairs and manufacturing clinical supplies. Certain
research and development segment reclassifications have been made to previously reported amounts to conform
to the current year’s presentation. The costs associated with these programs approximate the following (in
thousands):

In 2011, each of the two programs upon which we incurred the largest amount of expense (gevokizumab

and NIAID) accounted for more than 30% but less than 40% of our total research and development expense and
one development program (XMet) accounted for more than 10% but less than 20% of our total research and
development expense. In 2010, our largest development program (gevokizumab) accounted for more than 40%
but less than 50% of our total research and development expense and one development program (NIAID)
accounted for more than 30% but less than 40% of our total research and development expense. In 2009, one
development program (gevokizumab) accounted for more than 30% but less than 40% of our total research and
development expense and one development program (NIAID) accounted for more than 10% but less than 20% of
our total research and development expense. All remaining development programs accounted for less than 10%
of our total research and development expense in 2011, 2010, and 2009.

We expect our research and development spending in 2012 will increase primarily due to the expected
initiation of our Phase 3 clinical program for gevokizumab for NIU indication, the initiation of our Phase 2
proof-of-concept program for gevokizumab to evaluate moderate-to-severe inflammatory acne and the expected
initiation of our Phase 2 proof-of-concept program for erosive osteoarthritis of the hand, all under our license and
collaboration agreement with Servier. In addition, we plan to announce the final proof-of-concept indication later
in 2012. Also contributing to the increase is the initiation of a Phase 3 trial for perindopril arginine in
combination with amlodipine besylate.

60

Future research and development spending may also be impacted by potential new licensing or collaboration

arrangements, as well as the termination of existing agreements. Beyond this, the scope and magnitude of future
research and development expenses are difficult to predict at this time.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses include salaries and related personnel costs, facilities costs and
professional fees. In 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses were $24.0 million compared with $23.3
million in 2010 and $23.7 million in 2009. The $0.7 million increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses in 2011 as compared with 2010 was primarily due an increase in salaries and related personnel costs of
$2.8 million primarily due to a one-time accrued $1.3 million severance expense and a $0.7 million stock-based
compensation charge incurred during the third quarter of 2011 in connection with the resignation of our
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President and an increase in other stock-based compensation of $0.8
million. Partially offsetting this increase were decreases in financing fees and legal fees of $1.0 million and $0.7
million, respectively.

The $0.4 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2010 as compared with 2009

was primarily due a net decrease in financing and professional fees of $0.4 million, as well as a decrease in
salaries and related personnel costs of $0.4 million. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in other
expenses of $0.4 million, including an increase in travel-related costs.

We expect selling, general and administrative expenses in 2012 will decrease approximately 15% to 20%

compared to 2011 levels due to decreased salaries and employee-related expenses.

Restructuring Charges

In January 2012, we implemented a restructuring designed to sharpen our focus on value-creating

opportunities led by gevokizumab and our unique antibody discovery and development capabilities. The
restructuring plan includes a reduction of our personnel by 84 positions, or 34%, of which approximately 50 were
eliminated immediately and the remainder will be eliminated by April 6, 2012. See Subsequent Events below for
further discussion of our January 2012 restructuring.

In January 2009, we announced a workforce reduction of approximately 42%. As part of this workforce
reduction, we recorded charges of $3.1 million during 2009 related to severance, other termination benefits and
outplacement services, which were fully paid by the end of 2009. There were no additional employee-related
restructuring charges in connection with this workforce reduction.

As a result of the workforce reduction, in the second quarter of 2009, we vacated one of our leased buildings

and recorded a restructuring charge of $0.5 million primarily related to the net present value of the net future
minimum lease payments at the cease-use date, less the estimated future sublease income. Effective December
2010, we entered into a sublease agreement for this building. The remaining liability related to this lease was
$0.1 million and $0.2 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

$4,888

The increase of $2.1 million in interest expense in 2011 as compared to 2010 was primarily due to interest

expense related to the loan with Servier, which was funded in January 2011.

The decrease of $4.5 million in interest expense in 2010 as compared to 2009 was due to the repayment in

full of the Goldman Sachs term loan facility in September 2009.

Interest expense for 2012 is expected to increase compared to 2011 due to the December 2011 execution of

the Loan Agreement with GECC, for which the full $10.0 million was funded in December 2011.

Other income primarily consisted of gains on revaluation of warrant liabilities, unrealized and realized gains
(losses), warrant modification expense, and a loss on debt extinguishment. The following table shows the activity

Warrants

In December 2011, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we issued to GECC unregistered stock purchase
warrants, which entitle GECC to purchase up to an aggregate of 263,158 unregistered shares of XOMA common
stock at an exercise price equal to $1.14 per share. We have accounted for the warrants issued in December 2011
as equity at fair value as further discussed above in Critical Accounting Estimates: Warrants. As of
December 31, 2011 all of these warrants were outstanding.

In February 2010, we issued warrants to purchase 1,260,000 shares of XOMA’s common stock in
connection with an underwritten offering. We have accounted for the warrants issued in February 2010 as a
liability at fair value as further discussed above in Critical Accounting Estimates: Warrants. The fair value of the
warrant liability was $0.3 million at December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011 all of these warrants were
outstanding.

In June 2009, we issued warrants to certain institutional investors as part of a separate registered direct
offering. The warrants represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up to 347,826 shares of our common stock
over a five year period beginning December 11, 2009 at an exercise price of $19.50 per share. In February 2010,
the holders of these warrants agreed to amend the terms of their warrants to remove the provisions that would
have required a reduction of the warrant exercise price and an increase in the number of shares issuable on
exercise of the warrants each time the Company sold shares of its common stock at a price less than the exercise
price of such warrants (the “Eliminated Adjustment Provisions”) and we made a cash payment of $4.5 million to
these warrant holders, which was recorded in other income (expense). The exercise price of these warrants
remained unchanged at $19.50 per share. We have accounted for the warrants issued in February 2010 as a
liability at fair value as further discussed above in Critical Accounting Estimates: Warrants. The fair value of the
warrant liability was $0.1 million at December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011 all of these warrants were
outstanding.

In May 2009, we issued warrants to an institutional investor as part of a registered direct offering. The
warrants represented the right to acquire an aggregate of up to 392,157 shares of our common stock over a five
year period beginning May 15, 2009 at an exercise price of $15.30 per share. In February 2010, the holders of
these warrants agreed to amend the terms of their warrants to remove the Eliminated Adjustment Provisions and
the exercise price of these warrants was reduced from $15.30 per share to $0.015 per share. In the first quarter of
2010, the holders of these warrants exercised all warrants, acquiring 392,157 shares of our common stock for an
aggregate exercise price of $5,882.

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value of warrant liabilities for the years

ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 (in thousands):

Income Taxes

There was no material income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. We recognized

$5.7 million in income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2009. Income tax expense in 2009 is
primarily related to $5.8 million of foreign income tax expense recognized in connection with the expansion of
our existing collaboration with Takeda signed in February of 2009. We were paid a $29 million expansion fee, of
which $5.8 million was withheld for payment to the Japanese taxing authority. We also recognized $0.1 million
of income tax benefit for 2009 relating to research and development refundable credits.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) provides for the recognition of

deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Based upon the weight of available
evidence, which includes our historical operating performance and carry-back potential, we have determined that
total deferred tax assets should be fully offset by a valuation allowance.

We have recorded cumulative gross deferred tax assets of $240.1 million and $214.3 million at
December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, principally attributable to the timing of the deduction of certain
expenses associated with certain research and development expenses, net operating loss and other carry-forwards.
We also recorded corresponding valuation allowances of $240.1 million and $214.3 million at December 31,
2011 and 2010, respectively, to offset these deferred tax assets, as management cannot predict with reasonable
certainty that the deferred tax assets to which the valuation allowances relate will be realized.

As of December 31, 2011, we had federal net operating loss carry-forwards (“NOLs”) of approximately

$157.4 million and state net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $311.9 million to offset future
taxable income. We also had federal research and development tax credit carry-forwards of approximately $10.5
million and state research and development tax credit carry-forwards of approximately $16.2 million.

Based on our initial analysis under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (which subjects the amount of

pre-change NOLs and certain other pre-change tax attributes that can be utilized to an annual limitation), we
experienced an ownership change in 2009, which would substantially limit the future use of our pre-change
NOLs and certain other pre-change tax attributes per year. We have and will continue to evaluate alternative
analyses permitted under Section 382 and IRS notices in order to determine whether or not any ownership
changes have occurred and may occur (and if so, when they occurred) that would result in limitations on our
NOLs or certain other tax attributes. To the extent that we do not utilize our carry-forwards within the applicable
statutory carry-forward periods, either because of Section 382 limitations or the lack of sufficient taxable income,
the carry-forwards will expire unused.

We did not have unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2011 and do not expect this to change
significantly over the next twelve months. In accordance with ASC 740, we will recognize interest and penalties
accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2011, we
have not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

Working Capital

The increase in working capital in 2011 as compared to 2010 was primarily due to a decrease of $11.3

million in deferred revenue—current. The decrease in deferred revenue—current was primarily due to the
recognition of $14.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, related to the $15.0 million license fee
received as consideration for the collaboration with Servier. Also contributing to the increase in working capital
were reductions of $3.9 million and $1.7 million in warrant liabilities and accounts payable and accrued
liabilities, respectively.

Cash (Used in) Provided By Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $29.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared

with $52.5 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was
primarily related to the receipt of the $15.0 million license fee received as consideration for the collaboration
with Servier and a decrease in cash paid on gevokizumab-related clinical trials. Partially offsetting these
decreases in cash used in operating activities was a decrease in accounts payable and an increase in salaries and
benefits due to a higher employee headcount.

The $60.0 million change in cash provided by operations in 2009 to cash used in operations in 2010 was
primarily due to a decrease in revenue receipts for license and collaborative fees and royalties, and an increase in
spending on gevokizumab related to the Phase 2 clinical program. Comparatively, during 2009, we received
one-time cash receipts of $23.2 million related to the expansion of our existing collaboration with Takeda and
$22.3 million related to the sale of our LUCENTIS® royalty stream to Genentech. In addition, we received $10.0
million in the second half of 2009 related to our two antibody discovery collaboration agreements entered into
with Arana and Kaketsuken.

In addition, receivables and related party and other receivables increased by $13.6 million in 2010 primarily
due to the $15.0 million up-front fee in connection with the license and collaboration agreement entered into with
Servier in December 2010. These decreases in cash provided by operations were partially offset by an increase in
the accounts payable and accrued liabilities balance of $2.7 million due to increased research and development
expenses and timing of payments.

We expect net cash used in operating activities in 2012 to increase compared to 2011 levels due to increased

research and development spending.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities of $3.3 million and $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and

2010, respectively, consisted of fixed asset purchases relating to CMC activity. Net cash provided by investing
activities of $10.6 million in 2009 primarily consisted of a decrease in the restricted cash balance of $9.5 million
due to use of the funds for the repayment of our Goldman Sachs term loan in September 2009. In addition, we
received proceeds from maturities of investments of $1.3 million.

65

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities of $44.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 was

primarily related to loan proceeds of $20.1 million received from Servier, issuance of shares of our common
stock for $15.1 million under the 2010 and 2011 ATM agreements, and loan proceeds of $10.0 million received
from GECC. The loan proceeds from GECC were partially offset by debt issuance costs of $1.3 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $66.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 was
primarily related to proceeds received from the issuance of shares of our common stock of $70.8 million,
including net proceeds of $19.2 million from an underwritten offering in February 2010, $13.9 million from our
common share purchase agreement with Azimuth in August 2010, and $37.7 million under the 2009 and 2010
ATM agreements, partially offset by $4.5 million paid to the holders of warrants issued in June 2009 upon
modification of the terms.

Net cash used in financing activities of $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 was primarily
related to the repayment in full of the Goldman Sachs term loan, including a principal payment of $8.4 million in
the second quarter of 2009, repayment of the remaining outstanding balance of $42.0 million in September 2009,
accrued interest to the date of payment of $2.4 million, and payment of a prepayment premium of $2.5 million.
This cash used in financing activities was partially offset by proceeds of $49.3 million received from the issuance
of shares of our common stock in 2009, including gross proceeds of $26.4 million from an equity line of credit in
September 2009, $22 million from two registered direct offerings in May 2009 and June 2009, and $2.8 million
from our 2009 ATM Agreement.

Equity Line of Credit

In October of 2008, we entered into a common share purchase agreement (the “2008 Purchase Agreement”)

with Azimuth, pursuant to which we obtained a committed equity line of credit facility (the “2008 Facility”).
From the inception of the 2008 Facility through 2009, we sold a total of 2,815,228 shares of our common stock to
Azimuth for aggregate gross proceeds of $33.9 million. This included the sale of 2.3 million shares in two
transactions in September of 2009. Offering expenses incurred in 2009 related to sales to Azimuth were $0.4
million. At the end of the third quarter of 2009, the 2008 Facility was no longer in effect, and no additional
shares can be issued thereunder.

In July of 2010, we entered into a common share purchase agreement (the “2010 Purchase Agreement”)

with Azimuth pursuant to which we obtained a committed equity line of credit facility (the “2010 Facility”). In
August of 2010, we sold a total of 3,421,407 shares of our common stock under the 2010 Facility for aggregate
gross proceeds of $14.2 million, representing the maximum number of shares that could be sold under the 2010
Facility. As a result, the 2010 Facility is no longer in effect, and no additional shares can be issued thereunder.

Registered Direct Offerings

In May of 2009, we entered into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor to sell 784,313 units,

with each unit consisting of one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.50 of a share of our
common stock, for gross proceeds of approximately $10.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and
estimated offering expenses of $0.8 million, in a registered direct offering. In the first quarter of 2010, the
holders of these warrants exercised all warrants, acquiring 392,157 shares of our common stock for an aggregate
exercise price of $5,882.

In June of 2009, we entered into a definitive agreement with certain institutional investors to sell 695,652
units, with each unit consisting of one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.50 of a share of
our common stock, for gross proceeds of approximately $12.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees
and estimated offering expenses of $0.8 million, in a second registered direct offering. In February of 2010, the
holders of these warrants agreed to amend the terms of their warrants to remove the Eliminated Adjustment
Provisions and we made a cash payment of $4.5 million to these warrant holders, which was recorded in other
income (expense). As of December 31, 2011 all of these warrants were outstanding.

66

ATM Agreements

In the third quarter of 2009, we entered into the 2009 ATM Agreement, under which we could sell up to
1.7 million shares of our common stock from time to time through Wm Smith, as our agent for the offer and sale
of the shares. From the inception of the 2009 ATM Agreement through October of 2010, the Company sold a
total of 1.7 million shares of our common stock through Wm Smith, constituting all of the shares available for
sale under the agreement, for aggregate gross proceeds of $12.2 million, including 1.4 million shares sold in
2010 for aggregate gross proceeds of $9.3 million. Total offering expenses related to these sales were $0.4
million.

In the third quarter of 2010, we entered into the 2010 ATM Agreement, with Wm Smith and MLV (the
“Agents”), under which we could sell shares of our common stock from time to time through the Agents, as our
agents for the offer and sale of the shares, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold
under our registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-148342) filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) on December 26, 2007 and declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2008. The
Agents could sell the shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined
in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including without limitation sales
made directly on The NASDAQ Global Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock or to
or through a market maker. The Agents could also sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to
our prior approval. From the inception of the 2010 ATM Agreement through May of 2011, we sold a total of
7,560,862 shares of our common stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of $34.0 million,
including 821,386 shares sold in 2011 for aggregate gross proceeds of $4.4 million. Total offering expenses
incurred related to sales under the 2010 ATM Agreement from inception to May of 2011 were $1.0 million,
including $0.1 million incurred in 2011. In May of 2011, 2010 ATM Agreement expired by its terms, and there
will be no further issuances under this facility.

On February 4, 2011, we entered into the 2011 ATM Agreement, with MLV, under which we may sell
shares of our common stock from time to time through the MLV, as our agent for the offer and sale of the shares,
in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under our registration statement on Form S-3
(File No. 333-172197) filed with the SEC on February 11, 2011 and amended on March 10, 2011, June 3, 2011
and January 3, 2012, which was most recently declared effective by the SEC on January 17, 2012. MLV may sell
the shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of
the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made directly on The NASDAQ Global Market, on any
other existing trading market for our common stock or to or through a market maker. MLV may also sell the
shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to our prior approval. From the inception of the 2011 ATM
Agreement through December 31, 2011, we sold a total of 5,286,952 shares of our common stock under this
agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of $11.3 million. Total offering expenses incurred related to sales under
the 2011 ATM Agreement from inception to December 31, 2011, were $0.3 million. Subsequent to December 31,
2011, through March 12, 2012, 2,285,375 additional shares of our common stock were sold through MLV for
aggregate gross proceeds of $3.3 million. Total offering expenses related to these sales were approximately $0.1
million.

Underwritten Offering

In February of 2010, we completed an underwritten offering of 2.8 million units, with each unit consisting

of one shares of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.45 of a share of our common stock, for gross
proceeds of approximately $21.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
estimated offering expenses of $1.7 million. The warrants, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up
to 1.26 million shares of our common stock, are exercisable beginning six months and one day after issuance and
have a five-year term and an exercise price of $10.50 per share. As of December 31, 2011 all of these warrants
were outstanding.

Servier Loan

In December 2010, we entered into a loan agreement with Servier, which provided for an advance of up to
€15.0 million. The loan was fully funded in January 2011, with the proceeds converting to approximately $19.5
million. The loan is secured by an interest in XOMA’s intellectual property rights to all gevokizumab indications
worldwide, excluding certain rights in the U.S. and Japan. Interest is calculated at a floating rate based on a Euro
Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) and is subject to a cap. The interest rate is reset semi-annually in January
and July of each year. The interest rate for the initial interest period was 3.22%. The interest rate has been reset to
3.83% for the six-month period from July 2011 through January 2012 and 3.54% for the six-month period from
January 2012 through July 2012. Interest is payable semi-annually; however, the loan agreement provides for a
deferral of interest payments over a period specified in the agreement. During the deferral period, accrued
interest will be added to the outstanding principal amount for the purpose of interest calculation for the next
six-month interest period. On the repayment commencement date, all unpaid and accrued interest shall be paid to
Servier, and thereafter, all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the end of each six-month
period. The loan matures in 2016; however, after a specified period prior to final maturity, the loan is to be repaid
(i) at Servier’s option, by applying up to a significant percentage of any milestone or royalty payments owed by
Servier under our collaboration agreement and (ii) using a significant percentage of any upfront, milestone or
royalty payments we receive from any third-party collaboration or development partner for rights to
gevokizumab in the U.S. and/or Japan. In addition, the loan becomes immediately due and payable upon certain
customary events of default. At December 31, 2011, the outstanding principal balance under this loan was $19.4
million.

GECC Term Loan

In December 2011, we entered into the Loan Agreement with GECC under which GECC agreed to make a
term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million (the “Term Loan”) to our wholly-owned subsidiary
XOMA (US) LLC, and upon execution of the Loan Agreement, GECC funded the Term Loan. The Term Loan
accrues interest at a fixed rate of 11.71% per annum and is secured by substantially all of our existing and after-
acquired assets, excluding our intellectual property assets. We are required to repay the principal amount of the
Term Loan over a period of 42 consecutive equal monthly installments of principal and accrued interest,
commencing on January 4, 2012, and thereafter on the first calendar day of each succeeding month. The Term
Loan matures and is due and payable in full on June 30, 2015, at which time we will make an additional payment
equal to 5% of the Term Loan.

In December 2011, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we issued to GECC unregistered stock purchase
warrants, which entitle GECC to purchase up to an aggregate of 263,158 unregistered shares of XOMA common
stock at an exercise price equal to $1.14 per share. These warrants are immediately exercisable and expire on
December 30, 2016.

Proceeds from the sale of shares under the 2008 Purchase Agreement, the 2010 Purchase Agreement, the
2009 ATM Agreement, the 2010 ATM Agreement, the 2011 ATM Agreement, the Servier loan, the GECC Term
Loan, registered direct offerings and other equity offerings are being used to continue development of our
gevokizumab product candidate and for other working capital and general corporate purposes. We also used
certain of these proceeds to repay the Goldman Sachs term loan in September 2009.

We have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception.
At December 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $48.3 million. During 2012, we expect to continue
using our cash and cash equivalents to fund ongoing operations. Additional licensing, antibody discovery and
development collaboration agreements, government funding and financing arrangements may positively impact
our cash balances. Based on our cash reserves and anticipated spending levels, revenue from collaborations
including the gevokizumab license and collaboration agreement with Servier, funding from the loan agreement

with GECC, our recent public offering, biodefense contracts and licensing transactions and other sources of
funding that we believe to be available, we estimate that we have sufficient cash resources to meet our
anticipated net cash needs into 2014. Any significant revenue shortfalls, increases in planned spending on
development programs or more rapid progress of development programs than anticipated, as well as the
unavailability of anticipated sources of funding, could shorten this period. If adequate funds are not available, we
will be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our product development programs and
further reduce personnel-related costs. Progress or setbacks by potentially competing products may also affect
our ability to raise new funding on acceptable terms.

Other Arrangements to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our
debt obligation.

In addition to the above, we have committed to make potential future “milestone” payments to third parties
as part of licensing and development programs. Payments under these agreements become due and payable only
upon the achievement of certain developmental, regulatory and/or commercial milestones. Because it is uncertain
if and when these milestones will be achieved, such contingencies, aggregating up to $96 million (assuming one
product per contract meets all milestones) have not been recorded on our consolidated balance sheet. We are also
obligated to pay royalties, ranging generally from 1.5% to 14% of the selling price of the licensed component and
up to 40% of any sublicense fees to various universities and other research institutions based on future sales or
licensing of products that incorporate certain products and technologies developed by those institutions. We are
unable to determine precisely when and if our payment obligations under the agreements will become due as
these obligations are based on future events, the achievement of which is subject to a significant number of risks
and uncertainties.

Although operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a

material impact on financial results for the periods presented. We believe that we are not dependent on materials
or other resources that would be significantly impacted by inflation or changing economic conditions in the
foreseeable future.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2010, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605, Revenue Recognition was amended to define
a milestone and clarify that the milestone method of revenue recognition is a valid application of the proportional
performance model when applied to research or development arrangements. Accordingly, a company can make
an accounting policy election to recognize a payment that is contingent upon the achievement of a substantive
milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. This guidance was adopted effective
January 1, 2011 on a prospective basis and did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.

69

In May 2011, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement was amended to

develop common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value
measurements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial
Reporting Standards. The Company plans to adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2012 on a prospective basis and
does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

In June 2011, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 220, Comprehensive Income was amended to
increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. Accordingly, a company can present
all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or
in two separate but consecutive statements. The Company plans to adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2012 on a
retrospective basis and does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

2012 Restructuring

In January 2012, we implemented a restructuring designed to sharpen our focus on value-creating

opportunities led by gevokizumab and our unique antibody discovery and development capabilities. The
restructuring plan includes a reduction of our personnel by 84 positions, or 34%, of which approximately 50 were
eliminated immediately and the remainder will be eliminated by April 6, 2012. As a result, we expect to reduce
ongoing internal spending by approximately $14 million in 2012 compared to the 2011 level. We also anticipate
taking one-time charges for restructuring and related severance costs totaling approximately $6.0 million during
2012, of which $3.5 million are expected to result in cash charges and $3.8 million are expected to be taken in
the first quarter of 2012. These staff reductions result primarily from our decisions to utilize a contract
manufacturing organization for Phase 3 and commercial antibody production and to eliminate internal research
functions that are non-differentiating or that can be obtained cost-effectively by contract service providers.

Acquisition of U.S. Rights to Perindopril Franchise

On January 17, 2012, we announced that we had acquired U.S. rights to the perindopril franchise from
Servier. The agreement includes ACEON® (perindopril erbumine), a currently marketed angiotensin converting
enzyme (“ACE”) inhibitor, and a portfolio of three fixed-dose combination product candidates where perindopril
is combined with another active ingredient(s), such as a calcium channel blocker. We assumed
commercialization activities for ACEON® in January 2012 following the transfer from Servier’s previous
licensee. In late February 2012, we initiated enrollment in a Phase 3 trial for perindopril arginine and amlodipine
besylate, the first fixed-dose combination product candidate. The trial, named PATH (Perindopril Amlodipine for
the Treatment of Hypertension), is expected to enroll approximately 816 patients with hypertension to determine
the safety and efficacy of the fixed dose combination versus either perindopril or amlodipine alone. Based on
regulatory interaction to date, if positive, this trial is expected to be the only additional efficacy trial needed to
complement the existing clinical data in support of the submission of an application to the FDA seeking approval
for this product candidate. We estimate the total cost of the PATH trial will be between $8 million and $10
million. Partial funding for the PATH trial will be provided by Servier; the balance of study expenses, consisting
primarily of costs generated by Medpace, Inc., our contract research organization, are expected to be paid over
time from the profits generated by our ACEON® sales.

Underwritten Offering and Amendment to Shareholder Rights Plan

On March 9, 2012, we completed an underwritten public offering of 29,669,154 shares of our common
stock, and accompanying warrants to purchase one half of a share of common stock for each share purchased, at
a public offering price of $1.32 per share. Total gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $39.2
million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses totaling

70

approximately $3.0 million. The warrants, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up to 14,834,577
shares of common stock, are immediately exercisable and have a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.76
per share.

We have amended our shareholder rights agreement to provide that it will not apply to any person or entity
who becomes the beneficial owner of 20% or more but less than 40% of our outstanding common stock with the
prior approval of our board of directors, and our board has approved purchasers in the recent public offering
becoming beneficial owners of 20% or more but less than 40% of our outstanding common stock as a result of
their participation in the offering. As a result, such ownership by any such purchaser will not trigger the
provisions of the rights agreement that would give each holder of the rights the right to receive upon exercise that
number of common share equivalents having a market value of two times the exercise price. The board’s
approval in this regard only applies to purchasers in such offering.

Forward-Looking Information and Cautionary Factors That May Affect Future Results

Certain statements contained herein related to the anticipated size of clinical trials, the anticipated timing of
initiation of clinical trials, the expected availability of clinical trial results, the sufficiency of our cash resources,
the estimated costs of clinical trials and the amounts of certain revenues and certain costs in comparison to prior
years, or that otherwise relate to future periods, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These
statements are based on assumptions that may not prove accurate. Actual results could differ materially from
those anticipated due to certain risks inherent in the biotechnology industry and for companies engaged in the
development of new products in a regulated market. Among other things, clinical trials may not reach their
anticipated size if trials are not initiated or due to enrollment issues such as unavailability of patients, competing
product candidates or unanticipated safety issues; the timing of initiation of or availability of results of clinical
trials may be delayed or may never occur as a result of actions or inaction by regulators or our present or future
collaboration partners, complications in the design, implementation or third-party approval of clinical trials,
complications in the collection or interpretation of statistical data or unanticipated safety issues; the period for
which our cash resources are sufficient could be shortened if expenditures are made earlier or in larger amounts
than anticipated or are unanticipated, if anticipated revenue or cost sharing arrangements do not materialize, or if
funds are not otherwise available on acceptable terms; and our revenues may be lower than anticipated, and our
costs (including clinical trial costs) may be higher than expected, due to actions or inactions by regulatory
authorities or our present or future collaboration partners, unanticipated safety issues or unavailability of
additional financing, licensing or collaboration opportunities. These and other risks, including those related the
generally unstable nature of current economic and financial market conditions; the results of discovery research
and preclinical testing; the timing or results of pending and future clinical trials (including the design and
progress of clinical trials; safety and efficacy of the products being tested; action, inaction or delay by the Food
and Drug Administration, European or other regulators or their advisory bodies; and analysis or interpretation by,
or submission to, these entities or others of scientific data); changes in the status of existing collaborative or
licensing relationships; the ability of collaborators, licensees and other third parties to meet their obligations and
their discretion in decision-making; our ability to meet the demands of the United States government agency with
which we have entered our government contracts; competition; market demand for products; scale-up,
manufacturing and marketing capabilities; availability of additional licensing or collaboration opportunities;
international operations; share price volatility; our financing needs and opportunities; uncertainties regarding the
status of biotechnology patents; and uncertainties as to the costs of protecting intellectual property are described
in more detail in Item 1A: Risk Factors.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio
and our loan facilities. By policy, we make our investments in high quality debt securities, limit the amount of
credit exposure to any one issuer and limit duration by restricting the term of the instrument. We generally hold
investments to maturity, with a weighted average portfolio period of less than twelve months. However, if the
need arose to liquidate such securities before maturity, we may experience losses on liquidation.

We hold interest-bearing instruments that are classified as cash, cash equivalents and short-term

investments. Fluctuations in interest rates can affect the principal values and yields of fixed income investments.
If interest rates in the general economy were to rise rapidly in a short period of time, our fixed income
investments could lose value.

The following table presents the amounts and related weighted average interest rates of our cash and

investments at December 31, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands, except interest rate):

As of December 31, 2011, we have an outstanding principal balance on our note with Novartis of $14.0

million, which is due in 2015. The interest rate on this note is charged at a rate of USD six-month LIBOR plus
2%, which was 2.80% at December 31, 2011. No further borrowing is available under this note.

As of December 31, 2011, we have an outstanding principal balance on our loan with Servier of

€15.0 million, which converts to approximately $19.4 million at December 31, 2011. The interest rate on this
loan is charged at a floating rate based on a Euro Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) and subject to a cap.
The interest rate for the initial interest period was 3.22%. The interest rate has been reset to 3.83% for six-month
period from July 2011 through January 2012 and 3.54% for the six-month period from January 2012 through July
2012. No further borrowing is available under this loan.

As of December 31, 2011, we have an outstanding principal balance on our loan with GECC of $10.0
million, which is to be repaid over a period of 42 consecutive equal monthly installments. The loan accrues
interest at a fixed rate of 11.71% per annum. No further borrowing is available under this note.

The variable interest rate related to our long-term debt instruments is based on LIBOR for our Novartis note
and EURIBOR for our Servier loan. We estimate that a hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates could
increase or decrease our interest expense by approximately $0.3 million on an annualized basis. Our loan with
GECC is not subject to interest rate risk as it accrues interest at a fixed rate.

Foreign Currency Risk

We hold debt, may incur expenses, and may be owed milestones denominated in foreign currencies. The

amount of debt owed, expenses incurred, or milestones owed to us will be impacted by fluctuations in these
foreign currencies. When the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the U.S. dollar value of the foreign-
currency denominated debt, expense, and milestones increases, and when the U.S. dollar strengthens against
these currencies, the U.S. dollar value of the foreign-currency denominated debt, expense, and milestones
decreases. Consequently, changes in exchange rates will affect the amount we are required to repay on our

72

€15.0 million loan from Servier and may affect our results of operations. Our loan from Servier was fully funded
in January 2011, with the proceeds converting to approximately $19.5 million using the January 13, 2011 Euro to
USD exchange rate. At December 31, 2011, the €15.0 million outstanding principal balance under this loan
agreement would have equaled approximately $19.4 million using the December 31, 2011 Euro to USD
exchange rate. In May 2011, in order to manage our foreign currency exposure relating to our principal and
interest payments on our loan from Servier, we entered into two foreign exchange option contracts. Our use of
derivative financial instruments represents risk management; we do not enter into derivative financial contracts
for trading purposes.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Not applicable.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer

and our Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls
and procedures are intended to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file
or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated
and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance and
Chief Financial Officer, as the principal executive and financial officers, respectively, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President,
Finance and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
the end of the period covered by this report.

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during 2011 that have materially

affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial accounting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial
Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such
term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-159f). The Company’s internal control system was designed to
provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation
and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,

2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on our
assessment we believe that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting is effective
based on those criteria.

74

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, has been audited by

Ernst & Young, LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm who also audited the Company’s
consolidated financial statements. Ernst & Young’s attestation report on the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting follows.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President, Finance and Chief

Financial Officer, has evaluated any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the quarter ended December 31, 2011, and has concluded that there was no change during such quarter that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of XOMA Corporation:

We have audited XOMA Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011,

based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). XOMA Corporation’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, XOMA Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over

financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, 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 XOMA Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (net capital deficiency) and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, and our report dated March 14, 2012 expressed
an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of XOMA Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of XOMA Corporation as of December 31,

2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (net capital
deficiency), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of XOMA Corporation’s management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,

the financial position of XOMA Corporation at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board

(United States), XOMA Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, 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 14, 2012 expressed an unqualified
opinion thereon.

innovative antibody-based therapeutics. The Company’s products are presently in various stages of development
and most are subject to regulatory approval before they can be commercially launched.

2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned

subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates and Reclassifications

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the

United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its
estimates including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition, research and development expense,
long-lived assets, warrant liabilities, derivative instruments and stock-based compensation. The Company bases
its estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and other relevant 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. Actual results
may differ significantly from these estimates, such as the Company’s billing under government contracts. Under
the Company’s contracts with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (“NIAID”), a part of the
National Institutes of Health (“NIH”), the Company bills using NIH provisional rates and thus are subject to
future audits at the discretion of NIAID’s contracting office. These audits can result in an adjustment to revenue
previously reported.

Reverse Stock Split

All references to numbers of shares of our common stock and per-share information in the accompanying
financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the Company’s reverse stock split on August 18,
2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2010, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605, Revenue Recognition was amended to define
a milestone and clarify that the milestone method of revenue recognition is a valid application of the proportional
performance model when applied to research or development arrangements. Accordingly, a company can make
an accounting policy election to recognize a payment that is contingent upon the achievement of a substantive
milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. This guidance was adopted effective
January 1, 2011 on a prospective basis and did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.

In May 2011, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement was amended to

develop common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value
measurements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial
Reporting Standards. The Company plans to adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2012 on a prospective basis and
does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

In June 2011, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 220, Comprehensive Income was amended to
increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. Accordingly, a company can present
all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or
in two separate but consecutive statements. The Company plans to adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2012 on a
retrospective basis and does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (1) persuasive evidence

of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the fee is fixed or
determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The determination of criteria (2) is based on
management’s judgments regarding whether a continuing performance obligation exists. The determination of
criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the nature of the fee charged for products or
services delivered and the collectability of those fees. Allowances are established for estimated uncollectible
amounts, if any.

The Company recognizes revenue from its license and collaboration arrangements, contract services and

royalties. Revenue arrangements with multiple elements are divided into separate units of accounting if certain
criteria are met, including whether the delivered element has stand-alone value to the customer and whether there
is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered items. The consideration received is
allocated among the separate units based on their respective fair values and the applicable revenue recognition
criteria are applied to each of the separate units. Advance payments received in excess of amounts earned are
classified as deferred revenue until earned.

License and Collaborative Fees

Revenue from non-refundable license, technology access or other payments under license and collaborative

agreements where the Company has a continuing obligation to perform is recognized as revenue over the
expected period of the continuing performance obligation. The Company estimates the performance period at the
inception of the arrangement and reevaluates it each reporting period. This reevaluation may shorten or lengthen
the period over which the remaining revenue is recognized. Changes to these estimates are recorded on a
prospective basis.

Milestone payments under collaborative and other arrangements are recognized as revenue upon completion
of the milestone event, once confirmation is received from the third party and collectability is reasonably assured.
This represents the culmination of the earnings process when the Company has no future performance obligations
related to the payment. Milestone payments that are not substantive or that require a continuing performance
obligation on the part of the Company are recognized over the expected period of the continuing performance
obligation. Amounts received in advance are recorded as deferred revenue until the related milestone is
completed.

Contract Revenue

Contract revenue for research and development involves the Company providing research and development

and manufacturing services to collaborative partners, biodefense contractors or others. Revenue for certain
contracts is accounted for by a proportional performance, or output-based, method where performance is based
on estimated progress toward elements defined in the contract. The amount of contract revenue and related costs

F-8

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

recognized in each accounting period are based on management’s estimates of the proportional performance
during the period. Adjustments to estimates based on actual performance are recognized on a prospective basis
and do not result in reversal of revenue should the estimate to complete be extended.

Up-front fees are recognized in the same manner as the final deliverable, which is generally ratably over the

period of the continuing performance obligation. Given the uncertainties of research and development
collaborations, significant judgment is required to determine the duration of the arrangement.

Royalty Revenue

Royalty revenue and royalty receivables are generally recorded in the periods these royalties are earned, in
advance of collection. The royalty revenue and receivables in these instances is based upon communication with
collaborative partners or licensees, historical information and forecasted sales trends.

Research and Development Expenses

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development expenses
consist of direct costs such as salaries and related personnel costs and material and supply costs, and research-
related allocated overhead costs, such as facilities costs. In addition, research and development expenses include
costs related to clinical trials. Expenses resulting from clinical trials are recorded when incurred based in part on
estimates as to the status of the various trials. From time to time, research and development expenses may
include up-front fees and milestones paid to collaborative partners for the purchase of rights to in-process
research and development. Such amounts are expensed as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time

the Company acquires them to be cash equivalents.

Short-term investments include debt securities classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities

are stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, if any, reported in other comprehensive
income (loss). The estimate of fair value is based on publicly available market information. Realized gains and
losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are also included
in investment and other income. The Company reviews its instruments for other-than-temporary impairment
whenever the value of the instrument is less than the amortized cost. The cost of investments sold is based on the
specific identification method. Interest and dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are included in
investment and other income.

Property and Equipment and Long-Lived Assets

Property and equipment is stated at cost less depreciation. Equipment depreciation is calculated using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (three to seven years). Leasehold improvements,
buildings and building improvements are amortized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the
shorter of the lease terms or the useful lives (one to fifteen years).

The Company records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and
circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be
generated by those assets in the future are less than the carrying amounts of those assets.

XOMA Corporation

Warrants

The Company has issued warrants to purchase shares of its common stock in connection with financing
activities. The Company accounts for some of these warrants as a liability at fair value and others as equity at fair
value. The fair value of the outstanding warrants is estimated using the Black-Scholes Model. The Black-Scholes
Model requires inputs such as the expected term of the warrants, share price volatility and risk-free interest rate.
These inputs are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. For the estimate
of the expected term, the Company uses the full remaining contractual term of the warrant. The Company bases
its estimate of expected volatility on its historical volatility. The assumptions associated with warrant liabilities
are reviewed each reporting period and changes in the estimated fair value of these warrant liabilities are
recognized in other income (expense).

In February 2010, the holders of the May 2009 and June 2009 warrants agreed to amend the terms of their

warrants to remove the provisions that would have required a reduction of the warrant exercise price and an
increase in the number of shares issuable on exercise of the warrants each time the Company sold shares of its
common stock at a price less than the exercise price of such warrants (the “Eliminated Adjustment Provisions”).
Prior to the amendments, the Company recorded the warrants issued in May and June of 2009 as a liability at fair
value due to the Eliminated Adjustment Provisions and certain other provisions, which was estimated using the
Monte Carlo Simulation Model (“Simulation Model”).

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification

Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization
of such assets is more likely than not.

Net Income (Loss) per Share of Common Stock

Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is based on
the weighted average number of shares of common stock and other dilutive securities outstanding during the
period, provided that including these dilutive securities does not increase the net income or decrease the net loss
per share.

Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share if their inclusion is
anti-dilutive. The following table shows the total outstanding securities considered anti-dilutive and therefore
excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands):

3. Consolidated Financial Statement Detail

Cash and Cash Equivalents

At December 31, 2011, cash equivalents consisted of demand deposits of $21.1 million and money market
funds of $27.2 million with maturities of less than 90 days at the date of purchase. At December 31, 2010, cash
equivalents consisted of demand deposits of $29.5 million, money market funds of $6.4 million and repurchase
agreements of $1.4 million with maturities of less than 90 days at the date of purchase.

Foreign Exchange Options

The Company holds debt and may incur expenses denominated in foreign currencies, which exposes it to
market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Euro.
The Company is required to make principal and accrued interest payments in Euros on its €15.0 million loan
from Les Laboratoires Servier (“Servier”) (See Note 7: Long-Term Debt and Other Arrangements). In order to
manage its foreign currency exposure related to these payments, in May of 2011, the Company entered into two
foreign exchange option contracts to buy €15.0 million and €1.5 million on January 2016 and January 2014,
respectively. By having these option contracts in place, the Company’s foreign exchange rate risk is reduced if
the U.S. dollar weakens against the Euro. However, if the U.S. dollar strengthens against the Euro, the Company
is not required to exercise these options, but will not receive any refund on premiums paid.

Upfront premiums paid on these foreign exchange option contracts totaled $1.5 million. The fair values of

these option contracts are re-valued at each reporting period and are estimated based on pricing models using
readily observable inputs from actively quoted markets. The fair values of these option contracts are included in
other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and changes in fair value on these contracts are
included in other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The foreign exchange options were revalued at December 31, 2011 and had an aggregate fair value of $1.2

million, and the Company recognized a loss of $0.3 million related to the revaluation for the year ended
December 31, 2011.

4. Collaborative, Licensing and Other Arrangements

Collaborative and Other Agreements

Servier

In December 2010, the Company entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Servier, to jointly

develop and commercialize gevokizumab (formerly referred to as XOMA 052) in multiple indications, which
provided for a non-refundable upfront payment of $15.0 million that was received by the Company in January
2011. The upfront payment was recognized over the eight month period that the initial group of deliverables were
provided to Servier. The Company recognized $14.9 million in revenue relating to this upfront payment during
the year ended December 31, 2011. In addition, the Company received a loan of €15.0 million, which was fully
funded in January 2011, with the proceeds converting to $19.5 million at the date of funding. See Note 7: Long-
Term Debt and Other Arrangements. Also, the Company retains development and commercialization rights in
the U.S. and Japan for all indications except cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and an option to reacquire
rights to cardiovascular disease and diabetes indications from Servier in those territories. Servier will fully fund
activities to advance the global clinical development and future commercialization of gevokizumab in
cardiovascular related diseases and diabetes, as well as the first $50.0 million of future gevokizumab global
clinical development and chemistry and manufacturing controls expenses and 50% of further expenses for the
Behçet’s uveitis indication. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded revenue of $34.2
million under this agreement, which included the revenue relating to the upfront payment.

In November 2011, the Company announced plans for expanded gevokizumab clinical development. The
plan includes a global Phase 3 trial in non-infectious uveitis involving the intermediate and/or posterior segments
of the eye, including Behçet’s uveitis (“NIU”) and a Phase 3 trial outside the U.S. in Behçet’s uveitis. Based on
the timing of anticipated regulatory interactions, the Company anticipates initiating the NIU Phase 3 trial in the
second quarter of 2012. Servier has agreed to provide funding for the NIU Phase 3 trial under the terms of the
collaboration agreement discussed above for the Behçet’s uveitis indication so long as the European Medicines
Agency enables the results of the trial to be included in regulatory submissions in the EU. In addition, the
Company announced a proof-of-concept clinical program to identify additional conditions that may respond to
treatment with gevokizumab.

Under the agreement, the Company is eligible to receive a combination of Euro and USD-denominated,
development and sales milestones for multiple indications aggregating to a potential maximum of approximately
$460 million converted using the December 31, 2011 Euro to US Dollar (“USD”) exchange rate (the “12/31/11
Exchange Rate”) if XOMA reacquires cardiovascular and/or diabetes rights in the U.S. and Japan. If XOMA
does not reacquire these rights, then the milestone payments aggregate to a potential maximum of approximately
$800 million converted using the 12/31/11 Exchange Rate. Servier’s obligation to pay development and
commercialization milestones will continue for so long as Servier is developing or selling products under the
agreement.

F-13

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

The Company is also eligible to receive royalties on gevokizumab sales, which are tiered based on sales

levels and range from a mid-single digit to up to a mid-teens percentage rate. The Company’s right to royalties
with respect to a particular product and country will continue for so long as such product is sold in such country.

NIAID

In October 2011, the Company announced that NIAID had awarded the Company a new contract under
Contract No. HHSN272201100031C for up to $28.0 million over 5 years to develop broad-spectrum antitoxins
for the treatment of human botulism poisoning. The contract work is being performed on a cost plus fixed fee
basis over the life of the contract and the Company is recognizing revenue under the arrangement as the services
are performed on a proportional performance basis.

In September 2008, the Company announced that it had been awarded a $65 million multiple-year contract

funded with federal funds from NIAID, a part of the NIH (Contract No. HHSN272200800028C), to continue
development of anti-botulinum antibody product candidates. The contract work is being performed on a cost plus
fixed fee basis over a three-year period. The Company is recognizing revenue under the arrangement as the
services are performed on a proportional performance basis. In 2011, the NIH conducted an audit of the
Company’s actual data for period from January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2009 and developed final billing
rates for this period. As a result, the Company retroactively applied these NIH rates to the invoices from this
period resulting in an increase in revenue of $1.4 million from the NIH, excluding $0.9 million billed to the NIH
in 2010 resulting from the Company’s performance of a comparison of 2009 calculated costs incurred and costs
billed to the government under provisional rates. Final rates will be settled through negotiations with the NIH.
This revenue has been deferred and will be recognized upon completion of negotiations with and approval by the
NIH. In 2011, the Company recognized revenue of $18.6 million under this contract, compared with $21.2
million in 2010 and $5.1 million in 2009.

In July 2006, the Company was awarded a $16.3 million contract to produce monoclonal antibodies for the
treatment of botulism to protect United States citizens against the harmful effects of botulinum neurotoxins used
in bioterrorism. The contract work is being performed on a cost plus fixed fee basis. The original contract was for
a three-year period, however the contract was extended into 2010. The Company is recognizing revenue as the
services are performed on a proportional performance basis. This work was complete in the third quarter of 2010.
In 2011, the NIH conducted an audit of the Company’s actual data for period from January 1, 2007 through
December 31, 2009 and developed final billing rates for this period. As a result, the Company retroactively
applied these NIH rates to the invoices from this period resulting in an increase in revenue of $2.0 million from
the NIH. Final rates will be settled through negotiations with the NIH. This revenue has been deferred and will be
recognized upon completion of negotiations with and approval by the NIH. The Company did not recognize
revenue under this contract in 2011. In 2010, the Company recognized revenue of $0.2 million under this
contract, compared with $1.6 million in 2009.

SRI International

In the third quarter of 2009, the Company began work on two biodefense subcontract awards from SRI
International, including a $2.1 million award to develop novel antibody drugs against the virus that causes SARS
and a $2.2 million award to develop a novel antibody, known as F10, that has been shown to neutralize group 1
influenza A viruses, including the H1N1 and H5N1 strains. The subcontract awards are funded through NIAID.
In September 2011, we successfully completed the contract services we had agreed to perform under the
subcontract awards from SRI International. In 2011, the Company recognized revenue of $0.5 million related to
these subcontracts, compared with $1.6 million in 2010 and $0.3 million in 2009.

XOMA Corporation

Takeda

In November 2006, the Company entered into a fully funded collaboration agreement with Takeda for
therapeutic monoclonal antibody discovery and development. Under the agreement, Takeda will make up-front,
annual maintenance and milestone payments to the Company, fund its research and development and
manufacturing activities for preclinical and early clinical studies and pay royalties on sales of products resulting
from the collaboration. Takeda will be responsible for clinical trials and commercialization of drugs after an
Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) submission and is granted the right to manufacture once the
product enters into Phase 2 clinical trials. During the collaboration, the Company will discover therapeutic
antibodies against targets selected by Takeda. The Company will recognize revenue on the up-front and annual
payments on a straight-line basis over the expected term of each target antibody discovery, on the research and
development and manufacturing services as they are performed on a time and materials basis, on the milestones
when they are achieved and on the royalties when the underlying sales occur. In 2011, the Company recognized
revenue of $2.0 million under this agreement, compared with $3.6 million in 2010 and $7.5 million in 2009.

Under the terms of this agreement, the Company may receive milestone payments aggregating up to $19.0

million relating to one undisclosed product candidate and low single-digit royalties on future sales of all products
subject to this license. In addition, in the event Takeda were to develop additional future qualifying product
candidates under the terms of the agreement, the Company would be eligible for milestone payments aggregating
up to $20.75 million for each such qualifying product candidate. The Company’s right to milestone payments
expires on the later of the receipt of payment from Takeda of the last amount to be paid under the agreement or
the cessation of all research and development activities with respect to all program antibodies, collaboration
targets and/or collaboration products. The Company’s right to royalties expires on the later of 13.5 years from the
first commercial sale of each royalty-bearing discovery product or the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed
patent.

In February 2009, the Company expanded its existing collaboration agreement with Takeda to provide

Takeda with access to multiple antibody technologies, including a suite of research and development
technologies and integrated information and data management systems. The Company may receive milestones of
up to $3.25 million per discovery product candidate and low single-digit royalties on future sales of all antibody
products subject to this license. The Company’s right to milestone payments expires on the later of the receipt of
payment from Takeda of the last amount to be paid under the agreement or the cessation of all research and
development activities with respect to all program antibodies, collaboration targets and/or collaboration products.
The Company’s right to royalties expires on the later of 10 years from the first commercial sale of such royalty-
bearing discovery product, or the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent.

Novartis

In November 2008, the Company restructured its product development collaboration with Novartis entered
into in 2004 for the development and commercialization of antibody products for the treatment of cancer. Under
the restructured agreement, the Company received $6.2 million in cash and $7.5 million in the form of debt
reduction on its existing loan facility with Novartis. In addition, the Company may, in the future, receive
potential milestones of up to $14.0 million and royalty rates ranging from 10% to 20% for two ongoing product
programs, HCD122 and LFA 102 and options to develop or receive royalties on additional programs. In
exchange, Novartis received control over the HCD122 and LFA 102 programs, as well as the right to expand the
development of these programs into additional indications outside of oncology. The Company’s right to royalty-
style payments expires on the later of the expiration of any licensed patent covering each product or 20 years
from the launch of each product that is produced from a cell line provided to Novartis by XOMA.

XOMA Corporation

A loan facility of up to $50 million was available to the Company to fund up to 75% of its share of
development expenses incurred beginning in 2005. See Note 7: Long-Term Debt and Other Arrangements for
additional disclosure of the financing arrangement between the Company and Novartis.

In December 2008, the Company entered into a Manufacturing and Technology Transfer Agreement with
Novartis, effective July 1, 2008. Under this agreement, XOMA was engaged by Novartis to perform research and
development, process development, manufacturing and technology transfer activities with respect to certain
product programs under the original product development collaboration. The work performed under this
agreement was fully funded by Novartis and completed in the third quarter of 2009. The Company recognized
revenue related to this agreement as the research and development and other services were performed on a time
and materials basis. In 2009, the Company recognized revenue of $2.5 million related to this agreement.

Arana

In September 2009, the Company entered into an antibody discovery collaboration with Arana Therapeutics

Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cephalon, Inc. (“Arana”), involving multiple proprietary XOMA
antibody research and development technologies, including a new antibody phage display library and a suite of
integrated information and data management systems. Arana agreed to pay the Company a fee of $6.0 million, of
which $4.0 million was received in the third quarter of 2009 and the remaining $2.0 million was received in the
third quarter of 2010. The Company may be entitled to future milestone payments, aggregating up to $3.0 million
per product, and low single-digit royalties on product sales. The Company’s right to milestone payments expires
on the later of the receipt of payment from Arana of the last amount to be paid under the agreement, the cessation
by Arana of the use of all research and development technologies or the cessation by Arana of the exercise of the
patent rights granted to them. The Company’s right to royalties expires five years from the first commercial sale
of each royalty-bearing product.

Kaketsuken

In October 2009, the Company entered into an antibody discovery collaboration with The Chemo-Sero-

Therapeutic Research Institute, a Japanese research foundation known as Kaketsuken, involving multiple
proprietary XOMA antibody research and development technologies, including a new antibody phage display
library and a suite of integrated information and data management systems. Kaketsuken agreed to pay the
Company a fee of $8.0 million, of which $6.0 million was received in the fourth quarter of 2009 and the
remaining $2.0 million was received in the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company may be entitled to future
milestone payments, aggregating up to $0.2 million per product, and low single-digit royalties on product sales.
The Company’s right to milestone payments expires upon the receipt of payment from Kaketsuken of the last
amount to be paid pursuant to the agreement. The Company’s right to royalties expires 15 years from the first
commercial sale of each royalty-bearing discovery product.

AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“AVEO”)

In April 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with AVEO to utilize XOMA’s HE™ technology to

humanize AV-299 under which AVEO paid the Company an up-front license fee and development milestones.
Under this agreement the Company created four HE™ versions of the original AV-299, all of which met design
goals and from which AVEO selected one as its lead development candidate.

In September 2006, as a result of the successful humanization of AV-299, the Company entered into a
second agreement with AVEO to manufacture and supply AV-299 in support of early clinical trials. Under the
agreement, the Company created AV-299 production cell lines, conducted process and assay development and

F-16

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

performed Good Manufacturing Practices (“cGMP”) manufacturing activities. AVEO retains all development
and commercialization rights to AV-299 and may be required to pay XOMA annual maintenance fees, additional
development milestone payments aggregating up to $6.3 million and low single-digit royalties on product sales in
the future. The Company’s right to milestone payments expires upon full satisfaction of all financial obligations
of AVEO pursuant to the agreement. The Company’s right to royalties expires on the later of 15 years from the
first commercial sale of each royalty-bearing product or the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent.

In April 2007, Merck/Schering-Plough entered into a research, development and license agreement with
AVEO concerning AV-299 and other anti-HGF molecules, under which AVEO assigned its entire right, title and
interest in, to and under its manufacturing agreement with XOMA to Merck/Schering-Plough. In the third quarter
of 2010, AVEO regained its worldwide rights from Merck/Schering-Plough to develop and commercialize
AV-299 and other anti-HGF molecules. In 2011, the Company recognized revenue of $0.1 million under this
agreement, compared with $0.9 million in 2010 and $0.7 million in 2009.

Merck/Schering-Plough

In May 2006, the Company entered into a fully funded collaboration agreement with Schering-Plough
Research Institute, a division of Schering Corporation, now a subsidiary of Merck (“Merck/Schering-Plough”)
for therapeutic monoclonal antibody discovery and development. Under the agreement, Merck/Schering-Plough
made up-front, annual maintenance and milestone payments to the Company, funded its research and
development activities related to the agreement and would have paid royalties on sales of products resulting from
the collaboration. During the collaboration, the Company discovered therapeutic antibodies against multiple
targets selected by Merck/Schering-Plough using multiple human antibody phage display libraries, optimized
antibodies through affinity maturation or other protein engineering, used the Company’s proprietary HE™
technology to humanize antibody candidates generated by hybridoma techniques, performed preclinical studies
to support regulatory filings, developed cell lines and production processes and produced antibodies for initial
clinical trials. Merck/Schering-Plough selected the first target at the inception of the agreement and, in December
2006, exercised its right to initiate the additional discovery and development programs. In January 2011, the
Company completed the contract services it had agreed to perform under the collaboration agreement with
Merck/Schering-Plough.

UCB

In December 1998, the Company licensed its bacterial cell expression technology to Celltech Therapeutics
Ltd., now UCB Celltech, a branch of UCB, which utilizes this technology in the production of CIMZIA® for the
treatment of moderate-to-severe Crohn’s disease and moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis. The license
provides for a low single-digit royalty on sales of CIMZIA® in those countries where the bacterial cell expression
technology is patented, which includes the U.S. and Canada. In August 2010, the Company sold its royalty
interest in CIMZIA® to OrbiMed Advisors, LLC for gross proceeds of $4.0 million. In connection with this
transaction, XOMA CDRA LLC, a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote entity, was established to hold the rights,
title, and interests under the license agreement with UCB. As a bankruptcy-remote entity, XOMA CDRA LLC
has a corporate existence, assets, properties, and creditors separate from the Company’s. Accordingly, in
calculating the value of its own assets, the Company has not ascribed any value to the assets owned by XOMA
CDRA LLC, and the assets of XOMA CDRA LLC will not be available to pay any creditors of the Company.
The Company did not recognize revenue under this agreement in 2011. During 2010, including the sale of its
royalty interest in CIMZIA®, the Company recognized $4.2 million in revenue compared with $0.5 million in
2009. The Company no longer receives royalties on sales of CIMZIA®.

Genentech, Inc., a wholly-owned member of the Roche Group (referred to herein as “Genentech”)

In April 1996, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with Genentech for the development of

RAPTIVA®. In March 2003, it entered into amended agreements which called for the Company to share in the
development costs and to receive a 25% share of future U.S. operating profits and losses and a royalty on sales
outside the United States. The amended agreements also called for Genentech to finance the Company’s share of
development costs up until first FDA marketing approval via a convertible subordinated loan, and its share of
pre-launch marketing and sales costs via an additional commercial loan facility. Under the loan agreement, upon
FDA approval of the product, which occurred in October 2003, the Company elected to pay $29.6 million of the
development loan in convertible preference shares, which are convertible into approximately 0.3 million shares
of common stock at a price of $116.25 per share. In April 2011, the convertible preference shares were converted
by Genentech. The $29.6 million liquidation preference associated with the convertible preference shares was
eliminated as a result of this conversion.

In January 2005, the Company announced a restructuring of its arrangement with Genentech on

RAPTIVA®. Under the restructured arrangement, the Company was entitled to receive mid-single digit royalties
on worldwide sales of RAPTIVA® in all indications. The previous cost and profit sharing arrangement for
RAPTIVA® in the U.S. was discontinued and Genentech was responsible for all operating and development costs
associated with the product. In addition, the Company’s remaining obligation under the development loan was
extinguished. In the first half of 2009, RAPTIVA® was withdrawn from the commercial drug markets and
royalties ceased.

Genentech utilized the Company’s bacterial cell expression technology under license to develop

LUCENTIS® for the treatment of neovascular wet age-related macular degeneration. The Company was entitled
to receive a low single-digit royalty on worldwide sales of LUCENTIS®. In the third quarter of 2009, the
Company sold its LUCENTIS® royalty interest to Genentech for $25 million, including royalty revenue from the
second quarter of 2009. The Company no longer receives royalties on sales of LUCENTIS®.

The Company recognized royalty revenue related to its agreements with Genentech of $28.6 million in

2009.

Licensing Agreements

XOMA has granted more than 60 licenses to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to use the
Company’s patented and proprietary technologies relating to bacterial expression of recombinant pharmaceutical
products. In exchange, the Company receives license and other fees as well as access to certain of these
companies’ antibody display libraries, intellectual property and/or services that complement the Company’s
existing development capabilities and support the Company’s own antibody product development pipeline.

Certain of these agreements also provide releases of the licensee companies and their collaborators from
claims under the XOMA patents arising from past activities using the companies’ respective technologies to the
extent they also used XOMA’s antibody expression technology. Licensees are generally also allowed to use
XOMA’s technology in combination with their own technology in future collaborations.

Pfizer

In August 2007, the Company entered into a license agreement with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”) for non-exclusive,

worldwide rights for XOMA’s patented bacterial cell expression technology for research, development and
manufacturing of antibody products. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received a license fee
payment of $30 million in 2007.

F-18

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

From 2009 through 2011, the Company received milestone payments relating to four undisclosed product

candidates. The Company may also be eligible for additional milestone payments aggregating up to $4.9 million
relating to these four product candidates and low single-digit royalties on future sales of all products subject to
this license. In addition, the Company may receive potential milestone payments aggregating up to $1.7 million
for each additional qualifying product candidate. The Company’s right to milestone payments expires on the later
of the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent or the tenth anniversary of the effective date. The
Company’s right to royalties expires upon the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patent. The Company will
recognize revenue on milestones when they are achieved and on royalties when the underlying sales occur.

5. Restructuring Charges

On January 15, 2009, the Company announced a workforce reduction of approximately 42%. As part of this

workforce reduction, the Company recorded a charge of $3.1 million related to severance, other termination
benefits and outplacement services, which were fully paid in 2009. The Company does not expect to incur any
additional employee-related restructuring charges in connection with this workforce reduction.

As a result of the workforce reduction, in the second quarter of 2009, the Company vacated one of its leased

buildings and recorded a restructuring charge of $0.5 million. Effective December 2010, the Company entered
into a sublease agreement for this building. See Note 11: Commitments and Contingencies for additional
disclosure of the sublease for this building. The remaining liability related to this lease was $0.1 million and $0.2
million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

6.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based
on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be
used to measure fair value which are the following:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs.

The following tables set forth the Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets (cash equivalents
and investments) and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 are classified as

Due to the unique structure of the secured note agreement with Novartis and since there is no liquid market
for this note, there is no practical method to estimate fair value of our long-term debt with Novartis. See Note 7:
Long-Term Debt and Other Arrangements for additional disclosure of the financing arrangement between the
Company and Novartis.

The fair value of the foreign exchange options at December 31, 2011 was determined using readily
observable market inputs from actively quoted markets obtained from various third party data providers. These
inputs, such as spot rate, forward rate and volatility have been derived from readily observable market data,
meeting the criteria for Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the warrant liabilities at December 31, 2011 and 2010 was determined using the Black-

Scholes Model, which requires inputs such as the expected term of the warrants, share price volatility and risk-
free interest rate. These inputs are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop.

The fair value of the warrant liabilities was estimated using the following range of assumptions at

December 31, 2011 and 2010:

7. Long-Term Debt and Other Arrangements

Novartis Note

In May 2005, the Company executed a secured note agreement with Novartis (then Chiron Corporation),

which is due and payable in full in June 2015. Under the note agreement, the Company borrowed semi-annually
to fund up to 75% of the Company’s research and development and commercialization costs under its
collaboration arrangement with Novartis, not to exceed $50 million in aggregate principal amount. Interest on the
principal amount of the loan accrues at six-month LIBOR plus 2%, which was equal to 2.80% at December 31,
2011, and is payable semi-annually in June and December of each year. Additionally, the interest rate resets in
June and December of each year. At the Company’s election, the semi-annual interest payments can be added to
the outstanding principal amount, in lieu of a cash payment, as long as the aggregate principal amount does not
exceed $50 million. The Company has made this election for all interest payments thus far. Loans under the note
agreement are secured by the Company’s interest in its collaboration with Novartis, including any payments
owed to it thereunder.

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the outstanding principal balance under this note agreement was $14.0

million and $13.7 million. Pursuant to the terms of the arrangement as restructured in November 2008, the
Company will not make any additional borrowings under the Novartis note. Accrued interest of $0.3 million,
$0.4 million and $0.5 million was added to the principal balance of the loan for the years ended December 31,
2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Servier Loan

In December 2010, in connection with the license and collaboration agreement entered into with Servier

(see Note 7: Long-Term Debt and Other Arrangements), the Company executed a loan agreement with Servier,
which provided for an advance of up to €15.0 million. The loan was fully funded in January 2011, with the
proceeds converting to approximately $19.5 million. The loan is secured by an interest in XOMA’s intellectual
property rights to all gevokizumab indications worldwide, excluding certain rights in the U.S. and Japan. Interest
is calculated at a floating rate based on a Euro Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) and subject to a cap. The
interest rate is reset semi-annually in January and July of each year. The interest rate for the initial interest period
was 3.22%. The interest rate has been reset to 3.83% for the six-month period from July 2011 through January
2012 and 3.54% for the six-month period from January 2012 through July 2012. Interest is payable semi-
annually; however, the loan agreement provides for a deferral of interest payments over a period specified in the
agreement. During the deferral period, accrued interest will be added to the outstanding principal amount for the
purpose of interest calculation for the next six-month interest period. On the repayment commencement date, all
unpaid and accrued interest shall be paid to Servier and thereafter, all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due
and payable at the end of each six-month period. The loan matures in 2016; however, after a specified period
prior to final maturity, the loan is to be repaid (i) at Servier’s option, by applying up to a significant percentage of
any milestone or royalty payments owed by Servier under the Company’s collaboration agreement and (ii) using
a significant percentage of any upfront, milestone or royalty payments the Company receives from any third
party collaboration or development partner for rights to gevokizumab in the U.S. and/or Japan. In addition, the
loan becomes immediately due and payable upon certain customary events of default. At December 31, 2011, the
outstanding principal balance under this loan was $19.4 million using the 12/31/11 Exchange Rate. For the year
ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded an unrealized foreign exchange gain of $0.1 million related to
the re-measurement of the loan as of December 31, 2011.

The loan has a stated interest rate lower than the market rate based on comparable loans held by similar
companies, which represents additional value to the Company. The Company recorded this additional value as a
discount to the face value of the loan amount, at its fair value of $8.9 million. The fair value of this discount,

F-21

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

which was determined using a discounted cash flow model, represents the differential between the stated terms
and rates of the loan, and market rates. Based on the association of the loan with the collaboration arrangement,
the Company recorded the offset to this discount as deferred revenue.

The loan discount is amortized under the effective interest method over the expected five-year life of the

loan. The Company recorded non-cash interest expense of $1.4 million during the year ended December 31,
2011, resulting from the amortization of the loan discount. At December 31, 2011, the net carrying value of the
loan was $12.5 million. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded an unrealized foreign
exchange loss of $0.6 million related to the re-measurement of the loan discount as of December 31, 2011.

The Company believes that realization of the benefit and the associated deferred revenue is contingent on

the loan remaining outstanding over the five-year contractual term of the loan. If the Company were to stop
providing service under the collaboration arrangement and the arrangement is terminated, the maturity date of the
loan would be accelerated and a portion of measured benefit would not be realized. As the realization of the
benefit is contingent, in part, on the provision of future services, the Company is recognizing the deferred
revenue over the expected five-year life of the loan. The deferred revenue is amortized under the effective
interest method, and the Company recorded $1.4 million of related non-cash revenue during the year ended
December 31, 2011.

General Electric Capital Corporation Term Loan

In December 2011, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with General
Electric Capital Corporation (“GECC”), under which GECC agreed to make a term loan in an aggregate principal
amount of $10 million (the “Term Loan”) to XOMA (US) LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and
upon execution of the Loan Agreement, GECC funded the Term Loan. The Term Loan is guaranteed by the
Company and its two other principal subsidiaries, XOMA Ireland Limited and XOMA Technology Ltd. As
security for their obligations under the Loan Agreement, the Company, XOMA (US) LLC, XOMA Ireland
Limited and XOMA Technology Ltd. each granted a security interest pursuant to a guaranty, pledge and security
agreement in substantially all of their existing and after-acquired assets, excluding their intellectual property
assets (such as those relating to our gevokizumab and anti-botulism products). The Company incurred debt
issuance costs of approximately $1.3 million in connection with the Term Loan and will make an additional
payment equal to 5% of the Term Loan (the “Final Payment Fee”) on the maturity date, or such earlier date as the
Term Loan is paid in full. The debt issuance costs and Final Payment Fee are being amortized and accreted,
respectively, to interest expense over the term of the Term Loan using the effective interest method.

The Term Loan accrues interest at a fixed rate of 11.71% per annum. We are required to repay the principal

amount of the Term Loan over a period of 42 consecutive equal monthly installments of principal and accrued
interest, commencing on January 4, 2012, and thereafter on the first calendar day of each succeeding month. The
Term Loan matures and is due and payable in full on June 30, 2015.

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and
negative covenants, including restrictions on the ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, make investments,
dispose of assets, enter into transactions with affiliates and amend existing material agreements, in each case
subject to various exceptions. In addition, the Loan Agreement contains customary events of default that entitle
GECC to cause any or all of the indebtedness under the Loan Agreement to become immediately due and
payable. The events of default include any event of default under a material agreement or certain other
indebtedness. Upon an event of default, the Term Loan and other obligations under the Loan Agreement will, at
the election of GECC, bear interest from and after the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of
default at a rate equal to the lesser of 5.0% above the stated rate of interest or the maximum rate allowed by law.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

The Company may voluntarily prepay the Term Loan in full, but not in part, and any voluntary and certain

mandatory prepayments are subject to a prepayment premium of 3% in the first year of the loan, 2% in the
second year and 1% thereafter, although mandatory prepayments in connection with entering into certain
exclusive licenses, granting certain negative pledges or incurring certain collaboration-related indebtedness will
not be subject to such prepayment premium. The Company will also be required to pay the Final Payment Fee in
connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayment.

In December of 2011, pursuant to the loan agreement, the Company issued to GECC unregistered stock
purchase warrants, which entitle GECC to purchase up to an aggregate of 263,158 unregistered shares of XOMA
common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.14 per share. These warrants are immediately exercisable and will
expire on December 30, 2016. The Company allocated the aggregate proceeds of the GECC Term Loan between
the warrants and the debt obligation based on their relative fair values. The fair value of the warrants issued to
GECC was determined using the Black-Scholes Model. The warrants fair value of $0.2 million is recorded as a
discount to the debt obligation and is being amortized over the term of the loan using the effective interest
method. If the maturity of the debt is accelerated in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayment,
then the remaining discount amortization would be recognized immediately.

The Company had significant losses in 2011 and 2010, and as a result there was no material income tax
expense for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Income tax expense in 2009 was primarily related to
$5.8 million of foreign income tax expense recognized in connection with the expansion of the Company’s
existing collaboration with Takeda in February of 2009. The Company was paid a $29 million expansion fee, of
which $5.8 million was withheld for payment to the Japanese taxing authority. The Company also recognized
$0.1 million of income tax benefit for 2009 relating to research and development refundable credits.

The significant components of net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows (in

millions):

The net increase (decrease) in the valuation allowance was $25.8 million, $24.4 million and $(24.8) million

for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. No net operating loss carry-forward
expired in 2011, 2010 or 2009.

ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than

not. Based upon the weight of available evidence, which includes our historical operating performance and carry-
back potential, the Company has determined that total deferred tax assets should be fully offset by a valuation
allowance.

Based on an initial analysis under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (which subjects the amount of

pre-change NOLs and certain other pre-change tax attributes that can be utilized to an annual limitation), the
Company experienced an ownership change in 2009, which would substantially limit the future use of its
pre-change NOLs and certain other pre-change tax attributes per year. The Company has and will continue to
evaluate alternative analyses permitted under Section 382 and IRS notices in order to determine whether or not
any ownership changes have occurred and may occur (and if so, when they occurred) that would result in
limitations on its NOLs or certain other tax attributes. To the extent that the Company does not utilize its carry-

F-24

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

forwards within the applicable statutory carry-forward periods, either because of Section 382 limitations or the
lack of sufficient taxable income, the carry-forwards will expire unused.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, State of California and Ireland. The

Company’s federal income tax returns for tax years 2008 and beyond remain subject to examination by the
Internal Revenue Service. The Company’s 2009 federal tax return is currently under audit, and we do not expect
a material change to our federal income taxes as reported. The Company’s California and Irish income tax
returns for tax years 2007 and beyond remain subject to examination by the Franchise Tax Board and Irish
Revenue Commissioner. In addition, all of the net operating losses and research and development credit carry-
forwards that may be used in future years are still subject to adjustment.

The Company did not have unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2011 and does not expect this to

change significantly over the next twelve months. The Company will recognize interest and penalties accrued on
any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2011, the Company
has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

9. Compensation and Other Benefit Plans

The Company grants qualified and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), common
stock and other stock-based awards under various plans to directors, officers, employees and other individuals.
Stock options are granted at exercise prices of not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common
stock on the date of grant. Generally, stock options granted to employees fully vest four years from the grant date
and expire ten years from the date of the grant or three months from the date of termination of employment
(longer in case of death or certain retirements). However, certain options granted to employees vest monthly or
immediately, certain options granted to directors vest monthly over one year or three years and certain options
may fully vest upon a change of control of the Company or may accelerate based on performance-driven
measures. Additionally, the Company has an Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)
that allows employees to purchase Company shares at a purchase price equal to 95% of the closing price on the
exercise date.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In 1998, the Company’s stockholders approved the original ESPP which provides employees of the

Company the opportunity to purchase shares of common stock through payroll deductions. Up to 233,333 shares
of common stock are authorized for issuance under the ESPP. An employee may elect to have payroll deductions
made under the ESPP for the purchase of shares in an amount not to exceed 15% of the employee’s
compensation.

Effective January 1, 2005, the plan was amended to reduce future offering periods to three months and to

change the purchase price per share to 95% of the closing price of XOMA shares on the exercise date.

In 2011, 2010, and 2009, employees purchased 30,044, 5,903 and 14,735 shares of common stock,
respectively, under the ESPP. Net payroll deductions under the ESPP totaled $0.1 million, $41,000 and $0.1
million for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Deferred Savings Plan

Under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Board of Directors adopted, effective
June 1, 1987, a tax-qualified deferred compensation plan for employees of the Company. Participants may make
contributions which defer up to 50% of their eligible compensation per payroll period, up to a maximum for 2011

F-25

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

of $16,500 (or $22,000 for employees over 50 years of age). The Company may, at its sole discretion, make
contributions each plan year, in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock, in amounts which match up
to 50% of the salary deferred by the participants. The expense related to these contributions was $1.1 million,
$1.0 million and $0.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and 100%
was paid in common stock in each year.

Stock Option Plans

Historically, option grants intended as long-term incentive compensation have been made pursuant to the
Company’s 1981 Share Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) and Restricted Share Plan (the “Restricted Plan”). In
May of 2010, the Compensation Committee and the full Board adopted, and in July of 2010 the Company’s
stockholders approved, a new equity-based compensation plan, the 2010 Long Term Incentive and Share Award
Plan, which has since been amended and restated as the Amended and Restated 2010 Long Term Incentive and
Stock Award Plan (the “Long Term Incentive Plan”). The Long Term Incentive Plan is intended to consolidate
the Company’s long-term incentive compensation under a single plan, by replacing the Option Plan, the
Restricted Plan and the 1992 Directors Share Option Plan (the “Directors Plan”) going forward, and to provide a
more current set of terms pursuant to which to provide this type of compensation.

The Long Term Incentive Plan grants stock options, restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards to
eligible employees, consultants and directors. No further grants or awards will be made under the Option Plan,
the Restricted Share Plan or the Directors Plan. Shares underlying options previously issued under the Option
Plan, the Restricted Share Plan or the Directors Plan that are currently outstanding will, upon forfeiture,
cancellation, surrender or other termination, become available under the Long Term Incentive Plan. Stock-based
awards granted under the Long Term Incentive Plan may be exercised when vested and generally expire ten years
from the date of the grant or three to six months from the date of termination of employment (longer in case of
death or certain retirements). Vesting periods vary based on awards granted, however, certain stock-based awards
may vest immediately or may accelerate based on performance-driven measures.

Up to 8,679,998 shares are authorized for issuance under the stock option plans. As of December 31, 2011,

options covering 6,156,415 shares of common stock were outstanding under the stock option plans.

Stock Options

In October 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a grant under the Long Term Incentive

Plan for an aggregate of 1,097,926 stock options to certain employees of the Company. These stock options
include immediate vesting in an amount equal to each employee’s percentage of outstanding options that are
exercisable immediately prior to this grant. The remaining portion will vest monthly over two years.

On August 31, 2011, the Company announced that Steven B. Engle resigned as Chairman of the Board,
Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. In the third quarter of 2011, the Company incurred a
stock-based compensation charge of approximately $0.7 million, due to a modification to Mr. Engle’s stock
options as a result of his resignation.

In December of 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a company-wide grant of stock
options under the Long Term Incentive Plan and, in the first quarter of 2011, the options for 1,430,840 shares
became effective. 1,040,220 of these options were granted subject to stockholder approval of an increase in the
number of shares available under the Long Term Incentive Plan. On May 26, 2011, stockholder approval was
obtained at the Company’s annual general meeting of shareholders. A portion of the 2011 annual options granted
include immediate vesting terms with the remainder of the options vesting monthly over two years for employees
and one year for directors.

XOMA Corporation

In March of 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a company-wide grant of an aggregate
of 865,806 stock options. This grant included 856,006 options that were issued as part of the Company’s annual
incentive compensation review, of which 596,666 options were granted subject to stockholder approval of an
increase in the number of shares available under the Company’s existing stock option plans. On July 21, 2010
stockholder approval was obtained at the Company’s annual general meeting of shareholders. The options
granted as part of this annual incentive compensation review will vest monthly over four years.

In February of 2009, the Board of Directors approved a company-wide grant of 315,333 stock options, of
which 304,533 were issued as part of the Company’s annual incentive compensation package. These options vest
monthly over four years and include an acceleration clause based on meeting certain performance measures. In
2009 and 2010, management estimated the timing and probability of the achievement of the acceleration event,
which occurred in December of 2010. The Company recognized compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.1
million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, in connection with the accelerated
awards.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

The Company recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to the

Company’s employees, consultants and directors based on estimated fair values. The valuation of stock option
awards is determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model requires
inputs such as the expected term of the option, expected volatility and risk-free interest rate. To establish an
estimate of expected term, the Company considers the vesting period and contractual period of the award and its
historical experience of stock option exercises, post-vesting cancellations and volatility. The estimate of expected
volatility is based on the Company’s historical volatility. The risk-free rate is based on the yield available on
United States Treasury zero-coupon issues. To establish an estimate of forfeiture rate, the Company considers its
historical experience of option forfeitures and terminations.

The fair value of stock option awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following

weighted average assumptions for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:

The valuation of RSUs is determined at the date of grant using the closing stock price. The forfeiture rate

There was no capitalized stock-based compensation cost as of December 31, 2011 or 2010, and there were

December 31, 2011 or 2010.

10. Capital Stock

Series B Preference Shares

In December 2003, the Company issued 2,959 Series B preference shares to Genentech, Inc. in repayment

of $29.6 million of the outstanding balance under a convertible subordinated debt agreement. Pursuant to the
rights of the Series B preference shares, the holder of Series B preference shares was not entitled to receive any
dividends on the Series B preference shares. The Series B preference shares ranked senior with respect to rights
on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Company to all classes of common stock. Upon any voluntary
or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holder of Series B preference shares
would have been entitled to receive $10,000 per Series B preference share (or $29.6 million in the aggregate)
before any distribution was made on the common stock. The holder of the Series B preference shares had no
voting rights, except as required under Bermuda law.

The holder of Series B preference shares had the right to convert Series B preference shares into shares of
common stock at a conversion price equal to $116.25 per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

In April of 2011, the 2,959 Series B convertible preference shares were converted by Genentech into

254,560 shares of common stock. The $29.6 million liquidation preference associated with the Series B
preference shares was eliminated as a result of this conversion.

Shareholder Rights Plan

On February 26, 2003, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan

(“Rights Plan”), which was designed to extend the provisions of a similar rights plan originally adopted in
October of 1993. Under the Rights Plan, Preferred Stock Purchase Rights (“Rights”) are authorized and granted
at the rate of fifteen Rights for each outstanding share of common stock. Each Right entitles the registered holder
of common stock to buy a fraction of a share of the new series of Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) at
an exercise price of $30.00, subject to adjustment. The Rights will be exercisable and will detach from the
common stock, only if a person or group acquires 20 percent or more of the common stock, announces a tender
or exchange offer that if consummated will result in a person or group beneficially owning 20 percent or more of
the common stock or if the Board of Directors declares a person or group owning 10 percent or more of the
outstanding common stock to be an Adverse Person (as defined in the Rights Plan). Once exercisable, each Right
will entitle the holder (other than the acquiring person) to purchase units of Series A Preferred Stock (or, in
certain circumstances, common stock of the acquiring person) with a value of twice the Rights’ exercise price.
The Company will generally be entitled to redeem the Rights at $0.015 per Right at any time until the close of
business on the tenth day after the Rights become exercisable. The Rights will expire at the close of business on
December 31, 2012.

Equity Line of Credit

On October 21, 2008, the Company entered into a common share purchase agreement (the “2008 Purchase

Agreement”) with Azimuth Opportunity Ltd. (“Azimuth”), pursuant to which it obtained a committed equity line
of credit facility (the “2008 Facility”) under which the Company could sell up to $60 million of its registered
common stock to Azimuth over a 24-month period, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The 2008

F-29

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

Purchase Agreement required a minimum share price of $1.00 per share to allow the Company to issue shares to
Azimuth under the 2008 Facility. However, at its election, Azimuth could buy shares below the threshold price at
a negotiated discount. The Company was not obligated to utilize any of the $60 million 2008 Facility and
remained free to enter other financing transactions. Shares under the 2008 Facility were sold pursuant to a
prospectus which forms a part of a registration statement declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2008. At the
end of the third quarter of 2009, the 2008 Facility was no longer in effect, and no additional shares could be
issued thereunder.

From the inception of the 2008 Facility in October of 2008 through December 31, 2009, the Company sold a

total of 2,815,228 shares of its common stock to Azimuth for aggregate gross proceeds of $33.9 million. This
included the sale of 0.3 million shares under the 2008 Facility in December of 2008 and 2.3 million shares in two
transactions in September of 2009 that Azimuth agreed to purchase notwithstanding that the purchase prices were
below the minimum price of $1.00 required by the 2008 Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of the 2008
Purchase Agreement, the Company negotiated a discount rate (excluding placement agent fees) of 8.86% for the
sale in December of 2008 and 8.0% for the sales in September of 2009. Prior to the successful conclusion of
negotiations, Azimuth was not obligated to purchase these shares. Offering expenses incurred from inception of
the 2008 Facility through December 31, 2009 related to sales to Azimuth were $0.7 million.

In July of 2010, the Company entered into a common share purchase agreement (the “2010 Purchase
Agreement”) with Azimuth, pursuant to which the Company obtained a committed equity line of credit facility
(the “2010 Facility”) under which the Company could sell up to $30 million of its registered common stock to
Azimuth over a 12-month period, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The 2010 Purchase Agreement
provided that the Company could determine, in its sole discretion, the timing, dollar amount and floor price per
share of each draw down under the 2010 Facility, subject to certain conditions and limitations and that the
number and price of shares sold in each draw down were generally to be determined by a contractual formula
designed to approximate fair market value, less a discount. The 2010 Purchase Agreement also provided that
from time to time and in the Company’s sole discretion, it could grant Azimuth the right to exercise one or more
options to purchase additional shares during each draw down pricing period for the amount of shares based upon
the maximum option dollar amount and the option threshold price specified by the Company. The Company also
agreed to issue 111,111 shares of common stock to Azimuth upon execution of the agreement relating to the
2010 Facility, in consideration of Azimuth’s execution and delivery of that agreement. Shares under the 2010
Facility and the shares the Company agreed to issue to Azimuth upon execution of the agreement relating to the
2010 Facility were sold pursuant to a prospectus which forms a part of a registration statement declared effective
by the SEC on May 29, 2008. In August of 2010, the Company sold a total of 3,421,407 shares of common stock
under the 2010 Facility for aggregate gross proceeds of $14.2 million, representing the maximum number of
shares that could be sold under the 2010 Facility. As a result, the 2010 Facility is no longer in effect, and no
additional shares can be issued thereunder.

Registered Direct Offerings

In May of 2009, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor to sell
784,313 units, with each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase
0.50 of a share of common stock, for gross proceeds of approximately $10.0 million, before deducting placement
agent fees and estimated offering expenses of $0.8 million, in a registered direct offering. The investor purchased
the units at a price of $12.75 per unit. The warrants, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate of up to
392,157shares of common stock, were exercisable at any time on or after May 15, 2009 and prior to May 20,
2014 at an exercise price of $15.30 per share. In February of 2010, the holders of these warrants agreed to amend
the terms of their warrants to remove the Eliminated Adjustment Provisions and the exercise price of these

warrants was reduced from $15.30 per share to $0.015 per share. In the first quarter of 2010, the holders of these
warrants exercised all warrants, acquiring 392,157 shares of common stock for an aggregate exercise price of
$5,882.

In June of 2009, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with certain institutional investors to sell
695,652 units, with each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase
0.50 of a share of common stock, for gross proceeds of approximately $12.0 million, before deducting placement
agent fees and estimated offering expenses of $0.8 million, in a second registered direct offering. The investor
purchased the units at a price of $17.25 per unit. The warrants, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate
of up to 347,826 shares of common stock, are exercisable at any time on or prior to December 10, 2014 at an
exercise price of $19.50 per share. As of December 31, 2011 all of these warrants were outstanding.

ATM Agreements

In the third quarter of 2009, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2009

ATM Agreement”), under which the Company could sell up to 1.7 million shares of its common stock from time
to time through Wm Smith & Co. (“Wm Smith”), as the agent for the offer and sale of the shares. Wm Smith
could sell these shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in
Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, including but not limited to sales made directly on The NASDAQ Global
Market, on any other existing trading market for the Company’s common stock or to or through a market maker.
Wm Smith could also sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to the Company’s approval. The
Company paid Wm Smith a commission equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of all shares sold through it as sales
agent under the 2009 ATM Agreement but in no event less than $0.02 per share. Shares sold under the 2009
ATM Agreement were sold pursuant to a prospectus which formed a part of a registration statement declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 29, 2008. From the inception of the
2009 ATM Agreement through October of 2010, the Company sold a total of 1.7 million shares of common stock
through Wm Smith for aggregate gross proceeds of $12.2 million, including 1.4 million shares sold in 2010 for
aggregate gross proceeds of $9.3 million. Total offering expenses related to these sales from inception to October
of 2010 were $0.4 million.

In the third quarter of 2010, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2010

ATM Agreement”), with Wm Smith and McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (the “Agents”), under which the
Company could sell shares of its common stock from time to time through the Agents, as the agents for the offer
and sale of the shares, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under the Company’s
registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-148342) filed with the SEC on December 26, 2007 and
declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2008. The Agents could sell the shares by any method permitted by
law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), including without limitation sales made directly on The NASDAQ Global Market, on any
other existing trading market for the Company’s common stock or to or through a market maker. The Agents
could also sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to the Company’s prior approval. From the
inception of the 2010 ATM Agreement through May of 2011, the Company sold a total of 7,560,862 shares of its
common stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of $34.0 million, including 821,386 shares sold
in 2011 for aggregate gross proceeds of $4.4 million. Total offering expenses incurred related to sales under the
2010 ATM Agreement from inception to May of 2011 were $1.0 million, including $0.1 million incurred in
2011. In May of 2011, 2010 ATM Agreement expired by its terms, and there will be no further issuances under
this facility.

On February 4, 2011, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “2011 ATM

Agreement”), with McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (now known as MLV & Co. LLC, “MLV”), under which it

F-31

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

may sell shares of its common stock from time to time through the MLV, as the agent for the offer and sale of the
shares, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount that can be sold under the Company’s registration
statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-172197) filed with the SEC on February 11, 2011 and amended on
March 10, 2011, June 3, 2011 and January 3, 2012, which was most recently declared effective by the SEC on
January 17, 2012. MLV may sell the shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market”
offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made directly on The
NASDAQ Global Market, on any other existing trading market for the Company’s common stock or to or
through a market maker. MLV may also sell the shares in privately negotiated transactions, subject to the
Company’s prior approval. From the inception of the 2011 ATM Agreement through December 31, 2011, the
Company sold a total of 5,286,952 shares of common stock under this agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of
$11.3 million. Total offering expenses incurred related to sales under the 2011 ATM Agreement from inception
to December 31, 2011, were $0.3 million. Subsequent to December 31, 2011, through March 12, 2012, 2,285,375
additional shares of common stock were sold through MLV for aggregate gross proceeds of $3.3 million. Total
offering expenses related to these sales were approximately $0.1 million.

Underwritten Offering

In February of 2010, the Company completed an underwritten offering of 2.8 million units, with each unit
consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.45 of a share of common
stock, for gross proceeds of approximately $21 million. As of December 31, 2011 all of these warrants were
outstanding.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Collaborative Agreements, Royalties and Milestone Payments

The Company is obligated to pay royalties, ranging generally from 1.5% to 14% of the selling price of the
licensed component and up to 40% of any sublicense fees to various universities and other research institutions
based on future sales or licensing of products that incorporate certain products and technologies developed by
those institutions.

In addition, the Company has committed to make potential future “milestone” payments to third parties as

part of licensing and development programs. Payments under these agreements become due and payable only
upon the achievement of certain developmental, regulatory and/or commercial milestones. Because it is uncertain
if and when these milestones will be achieved, such contingencies, aggregating up to $96 million (assuming one
product per contract meets all milestones events) have not been recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. The
Company is unable to determine precisely when and if payment obligations under the agreements will become
due as these obligations are based on milestone events, the achievement of which is subject to a significant
number of risks and uncertainties.

Leases

As of December 31, 2011, the Company leased administrative, research facilities, and office equipment
under operating leases expiring on various dates through May 2014. These leases generally require the Company
to pay taxes, insurance, maintenance and minimum lease payments.

$12,584

Total rental expense, including other costs required under the Company’s leases, was approximately $5.1

million, $5.1 million and $5.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Rental expense based on leases allowing for escalated rent payments are recognized on a straight-line basis. The
Company is required to restore certain of its leased property to certain conditions in place at the time of lease.
The Company believes these costs will not be material to its operations.

As a result of the restructuring in the second quarter of 2009, the Company vacated one of its leased
buildings. Effective December 2010, the Company entered into a sublease agreement for this building through
May of 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized $0.1 million in sublease income
under this agreement. The Company will receive future sublease income of $0.3 million under this agreement.

Legal Proceedings

On April 9, 2009, a complaint was filed in the Superior Court of Alameda County, California, in a lawsuit

captioned Hedrick et al. v. Genentech, Inc. et al, Case No. 09-446158. The complaint asserts claims against
Genentech, the Company and others for alleged strict liability for failure to warn, strict product liability,
negligence, breach of warranty, fraudulent concealment, wrongful death and other claims based on injuries
alleged to have occurred as a result of three individuals’ treatment with RAPTIVA®. The complaint seeks
unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. Since then, additional complaints have been filed in the same
court, bringing the total number of filed cases to seventy seven. The cases have been consolidated as a
coordinated proceeding. All of the complaints allege the same claims and seek the same types of damages based
on injuries alleged to have occurred as a result of the plaintiffs’ treatment with RAPTIVA®. On January 31,
2011, the parties selected ten bellwether cases to prepare for trial. On July 15, 2011, the Court dismissed with
prejudice one of the bellwether cases, White v. Genentech, Inc., et al, Case No. RG-09-484026. On September 8,
2011, the Court granted defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment in two bellwether cases, Guerrero (Case
No. RG-10-518396) and Harwell (Case No. RG-09-464039), and dismissed both cases. On September 19, 2011,
the Court sustained defendants’ Demurrer to another case (Young, Case No. RG-11-569879) and dismissed the
complaint. On October 19, 2011, the Court granted defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment in another
bellwether case, Krawiec v. Genentech, Inc., et al., Case No. RG10-524963, and dismissed the case. On
December 15, 2011, the Court granted defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment and dismissed these three
bellwether cases: Davidson (Case No. RG10-538635); Hilditch (Case No. RG10-538642); and Ortiz (Case No.
RG09-484075). The first trial of a bellwether case (Johnson, Case No. RG10-494957) has been set for June 4,
2012. The Company’s agreement with Genentech provides for an indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees
by Genentech which the Company believes is applicable to these matters. The Company believes the claims
against it to be without merit and intends to defend against them vigorously.

On August 4, 2010, a petition was filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas in a case captioned

McCall v. Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 10-09544. The defendants filed a Notice of Removal to the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Texas on September 3, 2010. The removed case is captioned McCall v.
Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 3:10-cv-01747-B. The petition asserts personal injury claims against Genentech, the
Company, and others arising out of the plaintiff’s treatment with RAPTIVA®. The petition alleges claims based

F-33

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

XOMA Corporation

on negligence, strict liability, misrepresentation and suppression, conspiracy, and actual and constructive
fraud. The petition seeks compensatory damages and punitive damages in an unspecified amount. On June 6,
2011, the Court dismissed plaintiff’s claims of negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and conspiracy. The
Company’s agreement with Genentech provides for an indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees by
Genentech which the Company believes is applicable to this matter. The Company believes the claims against it
to be without merit and intends to defend against them vigorously. The Court has issued a scheduling order
setting the case for trial between July 9 and August 9, 2012.

On January 7, 2011, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Texas in a case captioned Massa v. Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 4:11CV70. On January 11, 2011, a complaint was
filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in a case captioned Sylvia, et al. v.
Genentech, Inc., et al., No. 1:11-cv-10054-MLW. On June 13, 2011, a complaint was filed in the Supreme Court
for the State of New York, Onondaga County. Defendants removed the case to the United States District Court
for the Northern District of New York on November 3, 2011. These three complaints allege the same claims
against Genentech, the Company and others and seek the same types of damages as the complaints filed in the
Superior Court of Alameda County, California referenced above. The Company’s agreement with Genentech
provides for an indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees by Genentech which the Company believes is
applicable to these matters. The Company believes the claims against it to be without merit and intends to defend
against them vigorously.

On April 8, 2011, four complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

Michigan. The cases are captioned: Muniz v. Genentech, et al., 5:11-cv-11489-JCO-RSW; Tifenthal v.
Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11488-DPH-LJM; Blair v. Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11463-SFC-MJH; and Marsh v.
Genentech, et al., 2:11-cv-11462-RHC-MKM. The complaints allege the same claims against Genentech, the
Company and others and seek the same types of damages as the complaints filed in the Superior Court of
Alameda County, California referenced above. All four cases were transferred to the United States District Court
for the Western District of Michigan. On October 26, 2011, the Court granted the Motions to Dismiss filed by
Genentech and the Company in all four actions. On October 31, 2011, Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal in each
case in the United States Court of Appeal for the Sixth Circuit. The Company’s agreement with Genentech
provides for an indemnity of XOMA and payment of legal fees by Genentech which the Company believes is
applicable to this matter. The Company believes the claims against it to be without merit and intends to defend
against them vigorously.

12. Concentration of Risk, Segment and Geographic Information

Concentration of Risk

Cash equivalents and receivables are financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk, as well as liquidity risk for certain cash equivalents such as money market funds.
The Company has not encountered such issues during 2011.

The Company has not experienced any significant credit losses and does not generally require collateral on

receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2011, two customers represented 61% and 32% of total revenue
and as of December 31, 2011, these two customers representing 57% and 43% of the accounts receivable
balance.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, three customers represented 64%, 13%, and 11% of total revenue

and as of December 31, 2010, there were billed receivables of $19.7 million outstanding from two customers
representing 72% and 23% of the accounts receivable balance. For the year ended December 31, 2009, two
customers represented 36% and 29% of total revenue.

13. Subsequent Events

2012 Restructuring

In January 2012, the Company implemented a restructuring designed to sharpen its focus on value-creating

opportunities led by gevokizumab and its unique antibody discovery and development capabilities. The
restructuring plan includes a reduction of XOMA’s personnel by 84 positions, or 34%, of which approximately
50 were eliminated immediately and the remainder will be eliminated by April 6, 2012. The Company anticipates
taking one-time charges for restructuring and related severance costs totaling approximately $6.0 million during
2012. These staff reductions result primarily from the Company’s decisions to utilize a contract manufacturing
organization for Phase 3 and commercial antibody production and to eliminate internal research functions that
are non-differentiating or that can be obtained cost-effectively by contract service providers.

Acquisition of U.S. Rights to Perindopril Franchise

On January 17, 2012, the Company announced that it had acquired U.S. rights to the perindopril franchise

from Servier. The agreement includes ACEON® (perindopril erbumine), a currently marketed angiotensin
converting enzyme (“ACE”) inhibitor, and a portfolio of three fixed-dose combination product candidates where
perindopril is combined with another active ingredient(s), such as a calcium channel blocker. The Company
assumed commercialization activities for ACEON® in January 2012 following the transfer from Servier’s
previous licensee. In late February 2012, the Company initiated enrollment in a Phase 3 trial for perindopril
arginine and amlodipine besylate, the first fixed-dose combination product candidate. The trial, named PATH
(Perindopril Amlodipine for the Treatment of Hypertension), is expected to enroll approximately 816 patients
with hypertension to determine the safety and efficacy of the fixed dose combination versus either perindopril or
amlodipine alone. Based on regulatory interaction to date, if positive, this trial is expected to be the only
additional efficacy trial needed to complement the existing clinical data in support of the submission of an
application to the FDA seeking approval for this product candidate. Partial funding for the PATH trial will be
provided by Servier; the balance of study expenses, consisting primarily of costs generated by the Company’s
contract research organization, are expected to be paid over time from the profits generated by our ACEON®
sales.

Underwritten Offering and Amendment to Shareholder Rights Plan

On March 9, 2012, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 29,669,154 shares of its
common stock, and accompanying warrants to purchase one half of a share of common stock for each share
purchased, at a public offering price of $1.32 per share. Total gross proceeds from the offering were
approximately $39.2 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering
expenses totaling approximately $3.0 million. The warrants, which represent the right to acquire an aggregate of
up to 14,834,577 shares of common stock, are immediately exercisable and have a five-year term and an exercise
price of $1.76 per share.

The Company has amended its shareholder rights agreement to provide that it will not apply to any person
or entity who becomes the beneficial owner of 20% or more but less than 40% of its outstanding common stock
with the prior approval of its board of directors, and its board has approved purchasers in the recent public
offering becoming beneficial owners of 20% or more but less than 40% of its outstanding common stock as a
result of their participation in the offering. As a result, such ownership by any such purchaser will not trigger the
provisions of the rights agreement that would give each holder of the rights the right to receive upon exercise that
number of common share equivalents having a market value of two times the exercise price. The board’s
approval in this regard only applies to purchasers in such offering.
