MEDIA ALERT - Delivering On Our Public Health Commitment: An Update on A
(H1N1) Vaccine Supply and Safety
Sanofi-aventis CEO and Sanofi Pasteur CEO Live Via Webcast




    WHAT       Sanofi-aventis CEO Chris Viehbacher and Sanofi Pasteur
               President & CEO Wayne Pisano will discuss how the company is
               meeting the challenges of manufacturing A (H1N1) vaccine.
               David Greenberg, M.D., Senior Director, Scientific and Medical
               Affairs, Sanofi Pasteur, will provide new data from adult and
               pediatric clinical trials of the U.S. licensed Influenza A
               (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent Vaccine.

    WHY        Sanofi Pasteur, the largest company in the world devoted
               entirely to vaccines -- and the only company producing an
               inactivated influenza vaccine at a manufacturing facility
               located in the United States -- has worked closely with the
               U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and other public
               health agencies to develop and produce a safe A (H1N1) vaccine
               that provides a robust immune response. Sanofi Pasteur's U.S.
               facility has been operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week
               to produce A (H1N1) vaccine.
