Galapagos  NV (Euronext: GLPG) announced
today  that its Board of Directors has created and offered 75,000 warrants under
a new warrant plan.

On  18 September 2013, the Board of Directors of Galapagos approved the "Warrant
Plan  2013 (B)" within  the  framework  of  the  authorized capital.  Under this
warrant  plan, 75,000 warrants were created  (subject to acceptance) and offered
to  David Smith, who joined Galapagos' Executive Committee as CEO of the service
division.

These  warrants have an exercise term of eight years as of the date of the offer
and  have an exercise price of €15.18 (the average closing price of the share on
Euronext  Brussels during  the thirty  days preceding  date of  the offer).  The
warrants are not transferable and can in principle not be exercised prior to the
end  of  the  third  calendar  year  after  the calendar year in which they were
granted.   Each warrant gives the right to subscribe to one new Galapagos share.
 Should  the warrants be exercised, Galapagos will  apply for the listing of the
resulting new shares on a regulated stock market.  The warrants as such will not
be listed on any stock market.

To  date, Galapagos' total  share capital amounts  to €160,962,030.82; the total
number  of securities conferring voting rights  is 29,755,302, which is also the
total number of voting rights (the "denominator"), and all securities conferring
voting  rights and all voting rights are of the same category.  The total number
of rights (warrants) to subscribe to not yet issued securities conferring voting
rights  is 3,636,015, which  equals the  total number  of voting rights that may
result from the exercise of these warrants.
