Robbins Umeda LLP has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by members of the Board of Directors ("Board") of Martek Biosciences Corporation ("Martek" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: MATK) in connection with their efforts to sell Martek to Royal DSM N.V. ("DSM") (Euronext: DSM KON). The transaction will be accomplished through an all-cash tender offer. If the transaction is completed, Martek shareholders will receive $31.50 in cash for each share of Martek common stock they hold. The tender offer is expected to commence in January 2011 and is expected to close in February 2011.

Robbins Umeda LLP's investigation concerns whether Martek's Board undertook a fair process to obtain fair consideration for all shareholders of Martek. Specifically, our investigation concerns whether members of the Company's Board breached their fiduciary duties to Martek shareholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into the transaction with DSM.
