Amgen - now why would they do that?

Amgen, the world's largest biotech drug maker, said late Tuesday its board voted unanimously to end the company's "poison pill" plan early.

The shareholder rights plan designed to thwart a hostile takeover will now expire on July 31.

The plan was originally set to expire on Dec. 12, 2010.
