MNTA Major Shareholders

[Updated for Form 13G filings today from BlackRock
and Visium. The former is a new 5% owner; the latter
reduced its holding by approximately 1/3.]



The table below shows all shareholders with a 5% stake
on an SEC reporting basis and all insiders with a 1% stake.
Insider holdings are accurate as of today and include restricted
stock and options, whether or not vested. Non-insider holdings
other than Novartis are as of 12/31/09 unless otherwise indicated
in the table footnotes. (Novartis’ holding is accurate as of today
because NVS is a 10% holder on an SEC reporting basis and
it has the same reporting requirements as an insider.)

The percentages shown below are based on 49.1M diluted
shares for valuation purposes (#msg-42163809), and hence
they differ from the percentages reported in SEC filings.

Novartis 4,708,679 9.6%

‡As of 10/31/09 (from 13G filing 11/10/09).
