Item 11. Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefits Plans.
On July 19, 2004, directors and executive officers of Maxygen were provided notice that the blackout period pursuant to section 306(a)(1) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that commenced on June 16, 2004 and was to end on July 29, 2004, terminated on July 19, 2004. The blackout period ended earlier than previously announced as the new trustee for Maxygen’s Employee Savings Investment Plan (“401(k) Plan”) completed its conversion, implementation and testing requirements more quickly than anticipated.
Maxygen received notice that the blackout period had terminated from its current 401(k) trustee on July 19, 2004.
