This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (which, together with any amendments and supplements thereto, collectively constitute this “Schedule TO”) relating to the tender offer by Sapphire Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Allos Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Allos”), at a price of $1.82 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding taxes, plus one contingent value right to receive additional consideration of $0.11 per share in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated April 13, 2012 (the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B), which, together with any amendments or supplements, collectively constitute the “Offer.”

All of the information set forth in the Offer to Purchase is incorporated by reference herein in response to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of this Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided for in this Schedule TO.

Items 1 through 9 and 11

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, which incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby revised as follows:

(1) The first paragraph immediately following the caption titled “What is the CVR and how does it work?” in the “Summary Term Sheet” section of the Offer to Purchase is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“The CVR represents the non-transferable contingent right to receive, for each Share tendered in the Offer and accepted for payment, an additional $0.11 per Share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, if (1) the Marketing Authorisation Application (the “MAA”) for FOLOTYN^® is approved by the European Medicines Agency (the “EMA”) for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (“PTCL”) in Europe by December 31, 2012 and (2) the first reimbursable commercial sale of FOLOTYN is achieved in at least three of the specified major markets in the European Union by December 31, 2013. In January 2012, the EMA Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”) adopted an opinion recommending against approval of the MAA for FOLOTYN for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL in Europe. Allos submitted a request for re-examination of the CHMP opinion in January 2012 and, on April 19, 2012, the CHMP confirmed its position and adopted a final opinion recommending against approval of the MAA. On the same day, the CHMP forwarded a copy of its final opinion to the European Commission (the “EC”), which is the regulatory authority responsible for rendering a final decision on the MAA. Allos has informed us that it believes that there is no formal process for it to appeal the CHMP’s final opinion, and if the EC adopts a final decision refusing approval of the MAA, such decision would be final and binding. In the event the EC does not refer the MAA back to the CHMP, Allos has informed us that it expects that a final decision would likely be adopted by the EC in late May or early June of 2012.”

(2) The eighth paragraph in Section 7—“Certain Information Concerning Allos” of the Offer to Purchase is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“In December 2010, Allos’ MAA seeking approval to market FOLOTYN for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL was accepted for review by the European Medicines Agency (the “EMA”). The MAA is based on updated clinical data from Allos’ PROPEL trial described above. In January 2012, the EMA Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”) adopted an opinion recommending against approval of the MAA for FOLOTYN for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL in Europe. Allos submitted a request for re-examination of the CHMP opinion in January 2012 and, on April 19, 2012, the CHMP confirmed its position and adopted a final opinion recommending against approval of the MAA. On the same day, the CHMP forwarded a copy of its final opinion to the European Commission (the “EC”), which is the regulatory authority responsible for rendering a final decision on the MAA. Allos has informed us that it believes that there is no formal process for it to appeal the CHMP’s final opinion, and if the EC adopts a final decision refusing approval of the MAA, such decision would be final and binding. In the event the EC does not refer the MAA back to the CHMP, Allos has informed us that it expects that a final decision would likely be adopted by the EC in late May or early June of 2012. Under the

Mundipharma Collaboration Agreement, if the MAA is approved by the EMA on or before December 31, 2012, Allos would receive a milestone payment from Mundipharma of $14.5 million, and, if Mundipharma achieves the first reimbursable commercial sale of FOLOTYN in at least three major market countries in the European Union, Allos would receive an additional milestone payment from Mundipharma of $10.0 million.”

(3) The eleventh paragraph in the subsection captioned “Allos’ Further Consideration of Strategic Alternatives and the Merger Agreement” of Section 10—“Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with Allos” is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“In addition, in January 2012, the CHMP adopted an opinion recommending against approval of the MAA for FOLOTYN for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL in Europe. Allos submitted a request for re-examination of the CHMP opinion in January 2012. Allos submitted a request for re-examination of the CHMP opinion in January 2012 and, on April 19, 2012, the CHMP confirmed its position and adopted a final opinion recommending against approval of the MAA. On the same day, the CHMP forwarded a copy of its final opinion to the EC, which is the regulatory authority responsible for rendering a final decision on the MAA. Allos has informed us that it believes that there is no formal process for it to appeal the CHMP’s final opinion, and if the EC adopts a final decision refusing approval of the MAA, such decision would be final and binding. In the event the EC does not refer the MAA back to the CHMP, Allos has informed us that it expects that a final decision would likely be adopted by the EC in late May or early June of 2012.”

(4) The following paragraph is inserted as the second paragraph in the subsection captioned “Certain Litigation” in Section 16—“Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals” of the Offer to Purchase:

“On April 30, 2012, an amended class action complaint was filed in the matter captioned Radmore v. Allos Therapeutics, Inc., et al., No. 1:12-cv-00948-PAB-CBS (the “Amended Radmore Complaint”), adding allegations that the Schedule 14D-9 contains inadequate, incomplete and/or misleading disclosures in violation of the Allos directors’ fiduciary duties and section 14(e) of the Exchange Act. The foregoing description of the Amended Radmore Complaint does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Radmore Complaint, which is filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(M) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.”
