aggregate principal amount of 6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2003
(the "Notes") of NABI, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), originally issued

with the Prospectus dated May 3, 1996, as supplemented to date (the

amount of the Notes that are currently beneficially owned by Robertson Stephens
is $3,020,000 all of which may be sold at this time pursuant to the Prospectus
as supplemented hereby. Robertson Stephens was an initial purchaser of the Notes
in the Debt Offering, in connection with which Robertson Stephens received
customary compensation for its services. Additional information concerning the
Selling Securityholders (including Robertson Stephens) may be set forth from
time to time in additional supplements to the Prospectus. The total outstanding
