Indicated for use as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for chronic weight management in adults with an initial body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 or greater (obese), or 27 kg/m2 or greater (overweight) in the presence of at least one weight-related comorbid condition. Approved with the brand name Contrave® in the United States and Mysimba® in the European Union. WARNING: SUICIDAL THOUGHTS AND BEHAVIORS Suicidality and Antidepressant Drugs CONTRAVE® is not approved for use in the treatment of major depressive disorder or other psychiatric disorders. CONTRAVE contains bupropion, the same active ingredient as some other antidepressant medications (including, but not limited to, WELLBUTRIN, WELLBUTRIN SR, WELLBUTRIN XL, and APLENZIN). Antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior in children, adolescents, and young adults in short-term trials. These trials did not show an increase in the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior with antidepressant use in subjects over age 24; there was a reduction in risk with antidepressant use in subjects aged 65 and older. In patients of all ages, monitor closely for worsening, and for the emergence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Advise families and caregivers of the need for close observation and communication with the prescriber. Not approved for use in pediatric patients.

Appendix
This presentation includes information relating to non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP operating results, which the Securities and Exchange Commission has defined as "non-GAAP financial measures." Non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP operating results have been included in this presentation because they have been adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, as well as certain one-time non-recurring accounting charges. These metrics aid Orexigen management and its board of directors in understanding and comparing the financial performance for the quarter to core operating performance and trends, and to develop short- and long-term operational plans. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP operating results have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of Orexigen’s financial results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP operating results alongside other financial performance measures, including GAAP operating expense and GAAP operating results. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures, see the non-GAAP reconciliations included at the end of this presentation. Non-GAAP Financial Measures
