This Amendment No. 2 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amendment”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 26, 2011, amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed on August 3, 2011, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on August 19, 2011 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule TO”) and relates to a tender offer by Eclipse Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pfizer”), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Icagen, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Icagen”), at a purchase price of $6.00 per Share, paid to the seller in cash, without interest thereon, less any applicable withholding and transfer taxes, and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated August 3, 2011 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal” which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be amended and supplemented from time to time, constitute the “Offer”). This Amendment is being filed on behalf of the Purchaser and Pfizer.

Except as otherwise set forth below, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference as relevant to the items in this Amendment.

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The following paragraph is inserted as a new final paragraph under the subheader entitled “Acquisition Discussions” under the header entitled “Contacts and Transactions with Icagen; Background of the Offer” of Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase:

“On August 26, 2011, Pfizer sent a letter to the Board stating that Pfizer’s best and final offer price is $6.00 per share and that “Pfizer will not pay more”.”

The following paragraph is inserted as a new final paragraph under the header entitled “Shareholder Litigation” of Section 15 of the Offer to Purchase:

“In accordance with the court’s scheduling order, on August 22, 2011, the plaintiffs filed a brief in support of their motion seeking to preliminarily enjoin the Merger, asserting, among other things, the claims described above. On August 23, 2011, the parties to the Stockholder Actions, without the defendants admitting any wrongdoing or liability of any kind, reached an agreement in principle, providing for the withdrawal of the plaintiffs’ pending motion for a preliminary injunction and to resolve claims asserted in the Stockholder Actions. The agreement in principle contemplates, among other things, that Icagen would disclose the additional information included in Item 4 under (A) of Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 14D-9. The agreement in principle, which was embodied in a Memorandum of Understanding executed on August 25, 2011, is subject to the parties reaching agreement on the terms of a mutually acceptable definitive settlement agreement. Thereafter, the settlement agreement will be subject to approval by the court.”
