Bayer report to Stockholders

HealthCare
Product-related litigations
Yasmin™/YAZ™: As of April 18, 2012, the number of lawsuits pending in the United States and served upon Bayer was about 11,900 involving about 14,000 plaintiffs (excluding cases already settled). Plaintiffs allege that they have suffered personal injuries, some of them fatal, from the use of Bayer’s oral contraceptive products Yasmin™ and/or YAZ™ or from the use of Ocella™ and/or Gianvi™, generic versions of Yasmin™ and YAZ™, respectively, marketed by Barr Laboratories, Inc. in the United States. As of April 19, 2012, Bayer had reached agreements, without admission of liability, to settle the claims of 651 plaintiffs in the U.S. for a total amount of about US$142 million. Bayer is only settling claims in the U.S. for venous clot injuries (deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism) after a case specific analysis of medical records on a rolling basis. The number of such injuries cannot be estimated at this time. However, less than half of the cases served to date allege such an injury. Based on the information currently available, Bayer has taken appropriate accounting measures for anticipated defense costs and for agreed and anticipated future settlements. Bayer is insured against product liability risks to the extent customary in the industry. However, going forward and depending on further developments in the litigation, it is possible that the company’s global liability insurance program may not be sufficient or fully applicable to cover all expenses and potential liability (if any) resulting from this litigation.
