For the record...
SAN DIEGO, May 6 /PRNewswire/ -- The Board of
Directors of Mycogen Corporation (Nasdaq: MYCO) has
appointed a committee of independent board members to
respond to a request by Dow AgroSciences LLC, wholly
owned subsidiary of The Dow Chemical Company, to
amend an agreement between Dow AgroSciences and
Mycogen. The amendment has been requested by Dow
AgroSciences to allow it to begin discussions regarding the
acquisition of the shares of common stock of Mycogen
which it does not already own. Dow AgroSciences
currently owns approximately 69 percent of Mycogen's
common stock.

The committee is retaining legal counsel and an investment
banking firm to assist it in performing its duties. The
committee will consider Dow AgroSciences' request and
respond as appropriate. The process may take several
weeks.
