ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

     At the close of business on March 4, 2002, the Company changed its name from “Nabi” to “Nabi Biopharmaceuticals.” The name change was effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Ownership and Merger with the Secretary of State of Delaware resolving to merge a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company into the Company for the sole purpose of changing our name.

     The Company’s common stock still trades under the ticker symbol “NABI” on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
