On November 15, 2016, Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Alexion)
received a notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market (NASDAQ) stating

effect on the listing of Alexions common stock on the NASDAQ
Global Select Market.

2017 to either file the Quarterly Report or submit a plan of

days from the due date of the Quarterly Report. If Alexion is
unable to file the Quarterly Report by January 17, 2017, it
intends to submit a plan of compliance on or prior to that date.
Alexion intends to take all necessary steps to achieve compliance
with NASDAQ continued listing requirements.
