Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws. Statements other than statements of historical facts including, without limitation, statements regarding our future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs and plans, future industry growth and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “believe” or “continue” or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Certain of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or “cautionary statements,” include, but are not limited to, those discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 2 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report, as well as elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We caution you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and we do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements.

1. Governing Statutes, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

On May 4, 2011, Axcan Intermediate Holdings Inc. announced that it has changed its name to Aptalis Pharma Inc., The entity is a corporation incorporated on November 28, 2007, under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The corporation and its subsidiaries (together the “Company”), commenced active operations with the purchase, through a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary on February 25, 2008, of all of the outstanding common shares of Axcan Pharma Inc. at a price of $23.35 per share (“the Acquisition”), a company incorporated under the Canada Business Corporation Act. The Company provides innovative, effective therapies for unmet medical needs including cystic fibrosis and gastrointestinal disorders. The Company has manufacturing and commercial operations in the United States, the European Union and Canada. The Company also formulates and clinically develops, enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products for itself and others using its proprietary technology platforms including bioavailability enhancement of poorly soluble drugs, custom release profiles, and taste-masking/orally disintegration tablet (ODT) formulations.

On February 11, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of Eurand N.V. (“Eurand”) through a wholly owned indirect subsidiary pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated November 30, 2010 (as amended) resulting in Eurand becoming an indirect subsidiary of the Company. Eurand is a specialty pharmaceutical company that is engaged in the development, manufacturing and commercialization of enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products based on its proprietary pharmaceutical technologies.

As described in Note 4, the Eurand transaction has been accounted for in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Eurand from the date of acquisition.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the reporting currency, and prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial statements and with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. When necessary, the financial statements include amounts based on informed estimates and best judgment of management. The results of operations for the interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. In Management’s opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments (including those that are normal and recurring) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operation for the periods shown. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following policies are interim updates to those discussed in Note 2 to the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the product is shipped to the Company’s customers, provided the Company has not retained any significant risks of ownership or future obligations with respect to the product shipped. Provisions for sales discounts and estimates for chargebacks, managed care and Medicaid rebates, product returns and distribution service agreement fees are recorded as a reduction of product sales revenues at the time such revenues are recognized. These revenue reductions are established by the Company at the time of sale, based on historical experience adjusted to reflect known changes in the factors that impact such reserves. In certain circumstances, returns of products are allowed under the Company’s policy and provisions are maintained accordingly. These revenue reductions are generally reflected as an addition to accrued liabilities. Amounts received from customers as prepayments for products to be shipped in the future are reported as deferred revenue.

The Company presents, on a net basis, taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities; that is, they are excluded from revenues.

~~APTALIS~~ULTRASE ~~PHARMA~~and ~~INC.~~VIOKASE, the Company’s pancreatic enzyme products (“PEPs”) have historically ~~Notes~~accounted for approximately 19% of the Company’s net sales in the three years ended September 30, 2009.

In 1995, the FDA issued a final rule requiring that these PEPs be marketed by prescription only, and, in ~~thousands~~April 2004, the FDA mandated that all manufacturers of Uexocrine pancreatic insufficiency drug products file an NDA and receive approval for their products by April 2008 or be subject to regulatory action.S. ~~dollars~~In October 2007, ~~except~~the ~~share~~FDA ~~related~~published ~~data~~a notice in the Federal Register extending the deadline within which to obtain marketing approval for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency drug products to April 28, 2010, for those companies that were (a) marketing unapproved pancreatic enzyme products as at April 28, 2004; (~~unaudited~~b) submitted NDAs on or before April 28, 2009; and (c) that continue diligent pursuit of regulatory approval. The FDA has required all manufacturers with unapproved NDAs to cease distribution of unapproved products after April 28, 2010, until such time that NDA approval is granted. After this date, the unapproved products were still available on pharmacy shelves for a short time until stock is depleted. The FDA has stated that it will continue to review NDAs that have been submitted by manufacturers of unapproved PEPs, and will approve additional PEPs even after the April 28, 2010 deadline has passed, if they meet the required safety, effectiveness and product quality standards. The Company completed the submission for ULTRASE MT in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008. The submission of the Company’s rolling NDA for VIOKASE was completed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.

ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE did not receive NDA approval by the April 28, 2010 deadline and the Company has ceased distributing the two products after that date, in compliance with the FDA guideline. The Company recorded an additional $23,453,000 sales deductions reserve in its fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. This reserve is for product returns and other sales deductions as an estimate of Company’s liability for ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE that may be returned by the original purchaser under the Company DSAs or applicable return policies. The cease distribution order issued by the FDA was not considered as a product recall. As at March 31, 2011, the remaining reserve was $5,293,000 and was based on management estimates of ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE inventory in the distribution channel, assumptions on related expiration dates of this inventory as well as estimated erosion of ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE demand, based on competition from approved PEPs and the resulting estimated sell-through of ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE, actual return activity and other factors. In future periods, the Company will monitor and review the estimates and will prospectively record changes to the reserve.

On November 28, 2010, the FDA issued complete response letters regarding the NDAs for ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE. The letters require that unresolved deficiencies raised with respect to the manufacturing and control processes at the manufacturer of the active ingredient for both ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE be addressed before approval can be granted. The letters also require that deficiencies identified in an FDA inspection of such manufacturer must be resolved before the NDAs can be approved. The Company is in ongoing discussions with the FDA and continues to work with the manufacturer of the active pharmaceutical ingredient to address the remaining open issues identified by the FDA, as soon as possible.

3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In ~~December~~June ~~2010~~2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ~~amended~~issued new guidance on ~~disclosure~~the presentation of ~~supplementary~~comprehensive ~~pro~~income. ~~forma~~The ~~information for~~new ~~business~~guidance ~~combinations~~allows ~~and~~an ~~clarifies~~entity ~~that~~two ~~when~~options ~~presenting~~to ~~comparative~~present ~~financial~~the components ~~statements,~~of ~~a public~~net ~~entity~~income ~~should~~and ~~disclose~~other ~~revenue~~comprehensive ~~and~~income; ~~earnings~~(1) in ofa ~~the~~single ~~combined~~continuous ~~entity~~financial statement, asstatement ~~though~~of ~~the~~comprehensive ~~current period~~income ~~business~~or ~~combinations~~(2) in ~~had~~two ~~occurred~~separate asbut ofconsecutive ~~the~~financial statements, ~~beginning~~consisting of ~~the~~an ~~comparable~~income ~~prior~~statement ~~annual reporting~~followed ~~period~~by ~~only~~a separate statement of other comprehensive income.

This new guidance requires retrospective application and is effective ~~prospectively~~ for fiscal ~~business~~years, ~~combinations~~and ~~entered~~interim ~~into~~periods inwithin ~~fiscal~~those years , beginning ~~on or~~ after December 15, ~~2010,~~2011. ~~with early~~ Early adoption is permitted. The ~~Company~~adoption ~~will~~of ~~apply~~ this guidance ~~for~~is ~~future~~not ~~acquisitions~~expected to have a material impact on the ~~its~~Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued new guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Additional disclosure requirements include: (1) for Level 3 fair value measurements, quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used by the entity, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs; (2) for an entity’s use of a nonfinancial asset that is different from the asset’s highest and best use, the reason for the difference; (3) for financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, the fair value hierarchy level in which the fair value measurements were determined; and (4) the disclosure of all transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. This new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued guidance that modifies the Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued guidance that clarified the recognition and classification of annual fees mandated by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act in the income statements of pharmaceutical manufacturers. The guidance requires that the liability for the fee should be estimated and recorded in full upon the first qualifying sale with a corresponding deferred cost that is amortized to expense using a straight-line method of allocation unless another method better allocates the fee over the calendar year that it is payable. The annual fee shall be presented as an operating expense. This guidance is effective for calendar years beginning after December 31, 2010, when the fee initially becomes effective. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2010, the FASB issued guidance related to revenue recognition that applies to arrangements with milestones relating to research or development deliverables. This guidance provides criteria that must be met to recognize consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. The guidance provides a definition of substantive milestone and should be applied regardless of whether the arrangement includes single or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. This guidance is effective prospectively to milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2010, the FASB amended the existing guidance on stock compensation to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB amended the existing guidance on revenue recognition related to accounting for multiple-element arrangements. This amendment addresses how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting, and how the arrangement consideration should be allocated among the separate units of accounting. This guidance is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued guidance that amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. The intent of this guidance is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset determined in accordance with the guidance on intangible assets and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset determined in accordance with the amended guidance for business combinations and other authoritative guidance. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance related to collaborative arrangements. The guidance defines collaborative arrangements and establishes reporting requirements for transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement and between participants in the arrangement and third parties. The guidance also establishes the appropriate income statement presentation and classification for joint operating activities and payments between participants, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures related to these arrangements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2008, and shall be retrospectively to all prior periods presented for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. Acquisition of Eurand N.V. (“Eurand”)

Description of the transaction

On February 11, 2011 or the Acquisition Date, Axcan Holdings Inc., which subsequently changed its name to Aptalis Holdings Inc. (“~~Axcan~~Aptalis Holdings”), the Company’s indirect parent, and Axcan Pharma Holding B.V. (“Axcan AcquisitionCo”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated November 30, 2010 (as amended) acquired ~~95.6%~~ ~~(99.1% after giving effect to~~ the ~~additional shares that are guaranteed to be delivered under a notice of guaranteed delivery) of the~~ outstanding ~~shares~~equity of Eurand N.V. (“Eurand”) for ~~a purchase price of $12.00 per share in cash resulting in~~ total consideration of approximately $589,555,000 ~~for~~ ~~100% of such shares~~equity. ~~The Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Eurand by March 31, 2011.~~ As a result of the acquisition, Eurand has become an indirect subsidiary. ~~In addition, Axcan~~ AcquisitionCo and other direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company acquired from Eurand substantially all of Eurand’s assets, including the capital stock of Eurand’s direct and indirect U.S. and foreign subsidiaries, and transferred the capital stock of former Eurand U.S. subsidiaries to the Company.

Prior to the transaction, Eurand was a specialty pharmaceutical company that developed, manufactured and commercialized enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products based on its proprietary pharmaceutical technologies. Eurand has had six products approved by the FDA since 2001 and had a pipeline of product candidates in development for itself and its collaboration partners. Its technology platforms include bioavailability enhancement of poorly soluble drugs, custom release profiles and taste-masking/orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) formulations. Eurand was a global company with facilities in the U.S. and Europe.

Prior to the transaction, Eurand was a specialty pharmaceutical company that developed, manufactured and commercialized enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products based on its proprietary pharmaceutical technologies. Eurand has had six products approved by the FDA since 2001 and had a pipeline of product candidates in development for itself and its collaboration partners. Its technology platforms include bioavailability enhancement of poorly soluble drugs, custom release profiles and taste-masking/orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) formulations. Eurand was a global company with facilities in the U.S. and Europe. The acquisition of Eurand enables the Company to leverage the combination of two leading specialty pharmaceutical players, expand its gastroenterology product portfolio and provide the Company with a proprietary R&D growth engine and technology platforms supported by an extensive patent portfolio to meaningfully diversify its business and expand its geographic and manufacturing footprint.

Fair value of consideration transferred

The table below details the consideration transferred to acquire Eurand:

	Conversion				Form of
	Calculation		Fair Value		Consideration
			$	$
Eurand common stock outstanding as of acquisition date		48,359,433		580,313	Cash
Mutiplied by cash consideration per common share outstanding		12.00
Multiplied by cash consideration per common share outstanding		12.00
Eurand stock options canceled for a cash payment(a)				9,242	Cash
Total fair value of consideration transferred				589,555


^(a)		Each Eurand stock option, whether or not vested and exercisable on the acquisition date, was canceled for a cash payment equal to the excess of the per share value of the acquisition consideration over the per share exercise price of the Eurand stock option.

The aggregate equity purchase price of $589,555,000 plus acquisition costs (including related fees and expenses) were funded by cash equity contributions amounting to $140,000,000 from affiliates of TPG Capital L.P. and certain co-investors made through Aptalis Holdings ~~Inc.~~, the proceeds from the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility (as defined below) under the Company’s amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements and cash on hand from the Company and Eurand.

The amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements is composed of (i) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $147,000,000 (the “Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility”) and (ii) a $750,000,000 senior secured term loan facility (the “Senior Secured Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, collectively, the “Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of $115,000,000 of existing revolving credit commitments that were extended or issued on February 11, 2011, (the “ Extended Commitments “) and $32,000,000 of existing revolving credit commitments that were not extended (the “ Unextended Commitments”) pursuant to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility.

The Company borrowed $500,000,000 of the amount available under the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility at the closing of the acquisition. The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility remained undrawn at the closing of the acquisition. A portion of the proceeds of the equity and debt financings, together with cash on hand of the Company and Eurand, were also used to repay the outstanding term loan portion amounting to $125,660,000 of the Company’s ~~existing~~prior senior secured credit facilities and to pay related fees and expenses. The remaining amount of $250,000,000 of the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility was used on March 15, 2011 to redeem 100% of the Company’s existing 9.25% senior secured notes due 2015.

Basis of presentation

The transaction has been accounted for in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under existing U.S. ~~generally accepted accounting principles (“~~GAAP”). The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date including acquired in-process research and development assets.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed

A preliminary purchase price allocation has been made and the recorded amounts are subject to change. The following recognized amounts are provisional and subject to change:

• Amounts and useful lives for identifiable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, pending the finalization of valuation; ~~efforts~~• Amounts for income tax assets and liabilities, pending finalization of estimates and assumptions in respect of certain tax aspects of the transaction, revision to fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, and the filing of Eurand’s pre-acquisition tax returns; and • The allocation of goodwill among reporting units.

• Amounts for income tax assets and liabilities, pending finalization of estimates and assumptions in respect of certain tax aspects of the transaction, revision to fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, and the filing of Eurand’s pre-acquisition tax returns; and

• The allocation of goodwill among reporting units.

The Company will finalize the purchase price allocation as it obtains the information necessary to complete the measurement process. Any changes resulting from facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date may result in retrospective adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation no later than one year from the acquisition date.

^(a)		As of acquisition date, the fair value of accounts receivable acquired approximated book value. The gross contractual amount receivable was $23,118,000 of which $456,000 was not expected to be collected.

^(b)		Reflects the adjustment to step-up the carrying value of inventory acquired by $18,727,000 to estimated fair value as of February 11, 2011. The stepped-up value is recorded as a charge to cost of goods sold as acquired inventory is sold.

^(c)		Includes prepaid assets and income tax receivable.

^(d)		The amounts recorded for the major components of acquired identifiable intangible assets are as follows:


	Amounts		Weighted
	recognized as of		average useful
	acquisition date		lives (years)

Trademarks, trademark licenses, manufacturing rights and other intangible assets with a finite life		413,929		17.04

Total identifiable intangible assets		413,929		17.04


		In addition, the estimated aggregate amortization expense for the five succeeding years will be $25,599,000 annually.

^(e)		Includes accounts payable, accrued liabilities and income taxes payable.

^(f)		Comprises of current deferred tax assets $823,000, non current deferred tax assets $15,703,000, current deferred tax liabilities $3,000 and non current deferred tax liabilities $77,772,000.

^(g)		The excess of purchase price over the fair value amounts assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill amount resulting from the acquisition. The goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition is largely attributable to synergies expected to result from combining the operations of Eurand and the Company and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Company does not expect any portion of this goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes. The allocation of goodwill among reporting units is not complete, pending finalization of the Company’s internal reporting structure and composition of its post-acquisition operating segments and reporting units.

^(h)		The Company had entered into an exclusive development license and supply agreement with Eurand. No gain or loss was recognized in conjunction with the effective settlement of the contractual relationship between the Company and Eurand as a result of this acquisition.

Transaction related costs

During the ~~six-month~~three ~~period~~and nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, the Company ~~has~~ expensed $473,000 and $11,~~292~~765,000 respectively (an additional $1,070,000 was expensed in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010) of costs relating to legal, financial, valuation and accounting advisory services performed in connection with effecting the transaction with Eurand, which are included in transaction, restructuring and ~~restructuring~~integration costs in the accompanying ~~Statement of~~ Condensed ~~Interim~~ Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Actual and proforma information

The revenues derived from the Eurand entities for the period from the Acquisition Date to ~~March~~June 3130, 2011 were $2569,~~752~~654,000 and ~~loss~~earnings before income taxes was $~~670~~652,000, excluding the effects of the non-recurring acquisition accounting adjustments described above.

The pro forma consolidated results of operations were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and are based on the historical financial information of the Company and Eurand. The pro forma information does not reflect any synergies and other benefits that the Company may achieve as a result of the acquisition, or the costs necessary to achieve these synergies. In addition, the pro forma information does not reflect the costs to integrate the operations of the Company and Eurand.

The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s consolidated results of operations actually would have been had the transaction been completed on October 1, 2009. In addition, the pro forma information does not purport to project the future results of operations of the Company. The pro forma information reflects primarily the following pro forma adjustments:

• elimination of product sales and royalties between Eurand and the Company, an elimination of the Company’s cost of sales for Eurand-sourced inventories, and the elimination of certain PEP-related charges stemming from intercompany transactions; • elimination of Eurand’s historical intangible asset amortization expense; • additional amortization expense related to the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired; • additional depreciation expense related to the fair value adjustment to property, plant and equipment acquired; • elimination of interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs related to the Company’s term loan under the legacy senior secured credit facilities and 9.25% senior secured notes due 2015 that were repaid as part of the acquisition transaction; • additional interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs associated with financing obtained under the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities obtained by the Company in connection with the acquisition transaction; • reduction of interest income associated with cash and cash equivalents that were used to partially fund the acquisition; • elimination of acquisition-related costs and acquisition-related restructuring charges; • elimination of $413,~~382~~050,000 for the three months and $17,432,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 of the acquisition accounting adjustment on Eurand’s inventory that was sold subsequent to the ~~Aquisition~~Acquisition Date, which will not have a continuing impact on the Company’s operations.

The pro forma effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate due to the relatively large impact of actual permanent differences on relatively small pro forma income before tax, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, and the expected impact of foreign withholding taxes upon repatriation of foreign earnings.

5. Restructuring and Integration

Acquisition related cost-rationalization and integration initiatives

The Company has initiated restructuring measures in conjunction with the integration of the operations of Eurand. These measures are intended to capture synergies and generate cost savings across the Company.

Restructuring actions taken thus far include workforce reductions across the Company and other organizational changes. These reductions primarily come from the elimination of redundancies and consolidation of staff in the sales and marketing, manufacturing, research and development, and general and administrative functions, as well as from the planned closure of Eurand’s manufacturing facility in Nogent-Oise, France.

~~During~~The ~~the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the~~ Company recorded a restructuring expense in the amount of $53,~~025~~655,000 during the three months and $8,680,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2011 related to planned employee termination costs included in Transaction, restructuring and integration on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of operations. Employee termination costs are generally recorded when the actions are probable and estimable and include accrued severance benefits and health insurance continuation, many of which may be paid out during periods after termination.

The following table summarizes restructuring liability activity related to the Eurand acquisition ~~during~~through ~~the quarter ended March~~June 3130, 2011:

	Liability					Balance
						Foreign
	Established		Payments			March 31,2011
						Currency		Balance

	Charges		Payments			Translation		June 30,2011
Severance and related benefits		5,025		(132	)		4,893
		$		$			$		$
Severance and related benefits		8,680		(6,093	)		123		2,710

The Company estimates to incur additional restructuring costs of between $1713,~~172~~000,000 and $2117,~~346~~000,000 inprimarily ~~connection with~~consisting ~~planned~~of ~~employee~~severance ~~termination~~ costs. The restructuring actions taken thus far are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2012.

Through ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, the Company has incurred integration costs of $514,~~980~~523,000 representing certain external, incremental costs directly related to integrating the ~~acquired~~Eurand business and primarily include expenditures for consulting and systems integration. ~~Restucturing~~Restructuring and ~~integration~~ integration costs are included in transaction, restructuring and ~~restructuring~~integration costs in the accompanying ~~Statement of~~ Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

6. ~~Disposal~~Acquisitions, ofResearch ~~the~~Collaborations ~~PHOTOFRIN/PHOTOBARR~~and ~~Product~~License ~~Line~~Agreements

As at March 31, 2011, the Company had accrued $1,237,000 ($1,075,000 as at September 30, 2010) for interest relating to income tax matters. There were no amounts recorded for penalties as at March 31, 2011.

The Company and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states, local and foreign jurisdictions including Canada and France. In many cases, the Company’s uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by relevant tax authorities. The Company is subject to federal and state income tax examination by U.S. tax authorities for fiscal years 2005 through 2010. The Company is subject to Canadian and provincial income tax examination for fiscal years 2005 through 2010. There are numerous other income jurisdictions for which tax returns are not yet settled, none of which is individually significant. The Company is currently being audited by Canada Revenue Agency for fiscal year 2005 to fiscal year 2008.

16. Stock Incentive Plans

Management equity incentive plan

In April 2008, the Company’s indirect parent company adopted a Management Equity Incentive Plan (the “MEIP Plan”), pursuant to which the indirect parent company grants options to selected employees and directors of the Company. The MEIP Plan provides that a maximum of 3,833,307 shares of common stock of the indirect parent company are issuable pursuant to the exercise of options. The per share purchase price cannot be less than the fair value of the share of common stock of the indirect parent company at the grant date and the option expires no later than ten years from the date of grant. Vesting of these stock options is split into 3 categories: 1) time-based options: 50% of option grants generally vest ratably over 5 years and feature a fixed exercise price equal to the fair value of common stock of the indirect parent company on grant date; 2) premium options: 25% of stock option grants with an exercise price initially equal to the fair value of common stock on grant date that will increase by 10% each year and generally vesting ratably over 5 years; and 3) performance-based options: 25% of stock option grants with a fixed exercise price equal to the fair value of common stock on grant date which vest upon the occurrence of a liquidity event (as defined under the terms of the MEIP Plan) based on the achievement of return targets calculated based on the return received by majority shareholders from the liquidity event. While the time-based options and the premium options are expensed over the requisite service period, the performance-based options will not be expensed until the occurrence of the liquidity event. The MEIP Plan was amended and restated effective February 11, 2011 primarily to reflect an increase to a maximum of 5,033,507 shares of common stock of the indirect parent company issuable pursuant to the exercise of options and to change the required return targets that need to be achieved for vesting performance based options for options issued under the amended and restated plan.

Special equity grant

In April 2008, the indirect parent company approved the Restricted Stock Unit grant agreement and the penny option grant agreement (collectively “Equity Grant Agreements”) pursuant to which a one-time grant of equity-based awards of either restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or options to purchase shares of common stock of the indirect parent company for a penny (“Penny Options”) was made to certain employees of the Company. A maximum of 1,343,348 shares of common stock of the indirect parent company are issuable with respect to the special grants. As a result of the option to allow the recipients to elect to have an amount withheld that is in excess of the required minimum withholding under the current tax law, the special grants will be accounted for as liability awards. As a liability award, the fair value on which the expense is based is remeasured each period based on the estimated fair value and the final expense will be based on the fair value of the shares on the date the award is settled. The RSUs and Penny Options expire no later than four years and ten years respectively from the date of grant. One third of the granted RSUs and Penny Options vested immediately on date of grant; one third vested on August 25, 2009, and the remainder vested on August 25, 2010.

The carrying value of an RSU or Penny Option is always equal to the estimated fair value of one common share of the indirect parent company. The RSUs and Penny Options entitle the holders to receive common shares of the indirect parent company at the end of a vesting period. The total number of RSUs and Penny Options granted were 1,343,348 with an initial fair value of $10, equal to the share price at the date of grant. AsAt ~~at March~~June 3130, 2011, there were 1956,~~086,247~~587 outstanding RSUs ~~and~~ and Penny Options (1,172,396 as at September 30, 2010) of which 1953,~~082,913~~253 (1,167,396 as at September 30, 2010) were vested.

Annual grant

In June 2008, the Company’s indirect parent company adopted a Long Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”), pursuant to which the indirect parent company is expected to grant annual awards to certain employees of the Company (the “participants”). The value of an award is initially based on the participant’s pay grade and base salary and is subsequently adjusted based on the outcome of certain performance conditions relating to the fiscal year. Each award that vests is ultimately settleable, at the option of the participant, in cash or in parent company common stock of equivalent value. The awards vest (i) upon the occurrence of a liquidity event (as defined under the terms of the LTIP) and (ii) in varying percentages based on the level of return realized by majority shareholders as a result of the liquidity event.

The awards granted under this LTIP are classified as liabilities in accordance with the FASB issued guidance on distinguishing liabilities from equity, since the award is for a fixed amount of value that can be settled, at the option of the participant, in (i) cash, or (ii) a variable number of parent company common stock of equivalent value.

The Company will not recognize any compensation expense until such time as the occurrence of a liquidity event generating sufficient return to the majority shareholders (in order for the award to vest) is probable. If such an event was probable as of ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, the value of the awards to to be expensed by the Company would range between $65,~~000~~300,000 and $76,~~200~~400,000 depending on the level of of return expected to be realized by the majority shareholders.

15. Financial Instruments

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable interest bearing term loans. The term loans bear interest based on British Banker Association LIBOR. As further disclosed in Note 1618, the Company may enter into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate changes and reduce its overall cost of borrowing. ~~As described in the subsequent events (Note 19),~~ ~~the Company entered into two separate pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps on April 4, 2011.~~

Currency risk

The Company is exposed to financial risk arising from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of the rates. The Company has used derivative instruments historically to reduce its exposure to foreign currencies risk. AsAt ~~at March~~June 3130, 2011, no foreign exchange contracts were outstanding. AsAt ~~at March~~June 3130, 2011, the financial assets totaling $~~163~~195,~~272~~871,000 ($194,005,000 as at September 30, 2010) include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable for CAN$7,~~472~~090,000, 25 24,~~888~~366,000 Euros and 1,~~403~~089,000 Swiss francs respectively (CAN$4,073,000, 18,658,000 Euros and 1,820,000 Swiss francs as at September 30, 2010). AsAt ~~at March~~June 3130, 2011, the financial liabilities totaling $1,~~112~~132,~~850~~421,000 ($689,148,000 as at September 30, 2010) include accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt of CAN$87,~~328~~353,000, 2128,~~359~~927,000 Euros ~~and 29,000 Swiss francs~~ respectively (CAN$10,234,000 and 8,158,000 Euros as at September 30, 2010).

The following methods and assumptions were used to calculate the estimated fair value of the financial instruments on the balance sheet.

a) Financial instruments for which fair value is deemed equivalent to carrying amount

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments shown on the consolidated balance sheet is equivalent to their carrying amount. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts receivable from the parent company, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

b) Long-term debt

The fair value of the long-term debt bearing interest at fixed rates has been established according to market prices obtained from a large U.S. financial institution. The fair value of the variable interest bearing term loan has been established based on broker-dealer quotes.

1618. Derivates and Hedging Activities

Risk management objective of using derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain ~~risk~~risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, conditions and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments, if any, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash flow hedges of interest rate risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During the three~~-month~~ ~~and~~months ~~six-month periods~~ ended ~~March 31~~June 30, ~~2010~~2011, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with a portion of the existing variable-rate debt.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.

~~Amounts~~On ~~reported~~April 4, in2011, ~~Accumulated~~the ~~Other~~Company ~~Comprehensive~~entered ~~Income~~into ~~related~~two toseparate ~~derivatives~~pay-fixed, ~~will~~receive-floating beinterest rate ~~reclassified~~swap agreements with an effective date of June 30, 2011 effectively converting a portion of the variable rate debt under its Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities to ~~interest~~fixed ~~expense~~rate debt. The first swap has a notional amount of $331,000,000 amortizing to $84,000,000 by its maturity in December 2015. The second swap has a notional amount of $219,000,000 and matures in December 2016. These swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of interest ~~payments~~rate ~~are~~risk. ~~made~~The oninterest rate swaps will effectively fix the Company’s ~~variable-rate~~interest payments on the hedged debt at 2.386% for the first swap and 3.18% for the second swap, respectively, inclusive of a LIBOR floor of 1.5%, plus the appropriate margin on each debt interest period which is currently 4%. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had two interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $550,000,000 that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. The weighted average fixed interest rate on these swaps is 2.7%.

In March 2009, the Company had entered into a pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap of a notional amount of $52,000,000 amortizing to $13,000,000 through February 2010. The Company’s two interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $63,000,000 that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk matured during the quarter ended March 31, 2010~~, and the Company has not entered into new derivative agreements~~.

~~Page~~Amounts 24reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. The Company estimates that $6,715,000 presently classified in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income will be reclassed as an increase to interest expense during the next twelve months.

17. Fair Value Measurements

Effective October 1, 2008, the Company adopted the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 — Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

~~APTALIS PHARMA INC~~19. ~~Notes~~ toFair ~~Condensed~~Value ~~Consolidated Financial Statements~~Measurements ~~(amounts in the tables are stated in thousands of U.S .dollars, except share related data) (unaudited)~~

19Effective October 1, 2008, the Company adopted the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements. ~~Subsequent~~Fair ~~Events~~value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

~~Agreements~~Level ~~with~~1 ~~Mpex~~- ~~Pharmaceuticals~~Quoted ~~Inc.~~prices ~~for~~in ~~the~~active ~~acquisition~~markets ~~and~~for ~~development~~identical ofassets ~~Aeroquin™~~or liabilities.

OnLevel ~~April 11,~~2 ~~2011,~~- ~~Axcan~~Observable ~~Holdings~~inputs ~~Inc.,~~other anthan ~~indirect~~Level ~~parent~~1 ~~company of the Company~~prices, ~~entered~~such ~~into~~as ~~a series~~quoted ofprices ~~agreements with Mpex Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Under these agreements, Axcan Holdings has an option to acquire all of Mpex’s assets ~~related to Aeroquin™ in a merger, with continued development of Aeroquin™ by Mpex under the~~or ~~terms~~liabilities; ofor aother ~~Development~~inputs ~~Agreement between the parties. Prior to the merger Mpex will transfer all of its assets~~ that are ~~not~~observable ~~related~~or tocan ~~Aeroquin™ to a newly formed company that will~~ be ~~owned~~corroborated ~~primarily~~ by ~~current~~observable ~~Mpex~~market ~~stockholders. As a result of the Aeroquin Transaction, the Company made an initial~~data ~~non-contingent~~for ~~payment~~substantially ~~of $12,000,000 on April 21, 2011. Additional remaining time-based, non-contingent payments in relation with~~ the ~~Aeroquin~~full ~~Transaction~~term ~~amounting to $50,500,000 will be paid in a number~~ of ~~additional installments, of which~~ the ~~final~~assets ~~installment~~or ~~is due on November 1, 2013~~liabilities.

~~Risk~~During ~~management~~the ~~measures~~nine ~~undertaken~~months toended ~~reduce~~June 30, ~~exposure~~2010, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $91,400,000 and an intangible assets impairment charge of $15,758,000 related to ~~interest~~the ~~rate~~PEPs ~~fluctuations~~event. The fair value measurement method used in the Company’s impairment analysis utilized a discounted cash flow model and market approach that incorporates significant unobservable inputs or Level 3 assumptions. These assumptions include, among others, projections of the Company’s future operating results, the implied fair value using an income approach by preparing a discounted cash flow analysis and other subjective assumptions.

~~On April 4, 2011, the Company entered into two separate pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps~~20. ~~The~~Related ~~first~~Party ~~swap has a notional amount of $331,000,000 amortizing to $84,000,000 by its~~Transactions maturity in December 2015. The second swap has a notional amount of $219,000,000 and matures in December 2016. The interest rate swaps will effectively fix the Company’s interest payments on the hedged debt at 2.386% for the first swap and 3.18% for the second swap, respectively, inclusive of a labor floor of 1.5%, plus the appropriate margin on each debt interest period. These swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

At June 30, 2011, the Company had a note receivable from its parent company amounting to $78,154,000 ($133,154,000 at September 30, 2010).

The related interest receivable from the parent company amounting to $35,052,000 at June 30, 2011, ($27,130,000 at September 30, 2010) has been recorded in the shareholders’ equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. This amount was subject to a full provision which was also recorded in the statement of shareholders’ equity. At June 30, 2011, the Company has also an account receivable from the parent company amounting to $603,000 ($487,000 at September 30, 2010).

The Company recorded charges pursuant to the terms of a management fee arrangement with a controlling shareholding company of $891,000 and $2,460,000 during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011 respectively ($703,000 and $2,558,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30 2010).

At June 30, 2011, the Company accrued fees payable to a controlling shareholding company amounting to $942,000 ($1,574,000 at September 30, 2010).

The Company paid a dividend to its parent company of $415,000 and $440,000 during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011 respectively ($128,000 for three and nine months ended June 30, 2010) to allow for the payment of certain group expenses.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On May 4, 2011, Axcan Intermediate Holdings Inc. announced that it has changed its name to Aptalis Pharma Inc.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the Interim Condensed Consolidated ~~Interim~~ Financial Statements and the related notes that appear in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. The results of operations for the three~~-month~~ and ~~six-month~~nine ~~periods~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, and ~~March 31~~June 30, 2010, reflect the results of operations for Aptalis Pharma Inc. previously known as Axcan ~~Intermediate~~ Intermediate Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Unless the context otherwise requires, in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, the terms “Axcan”, “Aptalis”, “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Aptalis Pharma Inc. ~~previously known as Axcan Intermediate Holdings Inc. and its~~ ~~consolidated subsidiaries.~~

This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those described in Part 2, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report and “Item 1A Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Our Business

Aptalis Pharma Inc. is a privately held, leading specialty pharmaceutical company providing innovative, effective therapies for unmet medical needs including cystic fibrosis and gastrointestinal disorders. Aptalis has manufacturing and commercial operations in the United States, the European Union and Canada, and its products include ZENPEP®, CANASA®, CARAFATE®, ~~PYLERA®,~~ LACTEOL®, DELURSAN®, and SALOFALK®. Our vision is to become the reference specialty ~~pharma~~ pharma company providing innovative, effective therapies for unmet medical needs, including cystic fibrosis and gastrointestinal disorders, and we hope to achieve this through our mission: to improve health and quality of care by providing specialty therapies for patients around the world. The Company will strive to improve patient quality of care thanks to a broad range of products in cystic fibrosis and gastrointestinal disorders, a robust pipeline, technology platform, manufacturing capabilities and a skilled team of professionals with deep understanding of our customers’ needs.

In addition to our marketing activities, the Company also formulates and clinically develops enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products for itself and others using its proprietary pharmaceutical technology platforms including bioavailability enhancement of poorly soluble drugs, custom release profiles, and taste-masking/orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) formulations.

We intend to enhance our position as the leading specialty pharmaceutical company concentrating in the field of cystic fibrosis and gastroenterology by pursuing the following strategic initiatives: 1) growing sales of existing products; 2) launching new products; 3) selectively acquiring or in-licensing complementary late stage or in-market products from third parties; 4) pursuing growth opportunities through development pipeline and through our pharmaceutical technologies business; and 5) expanding internationally.

Business Environment

While the ultimate end users of our products are the individual patients to whom our products are prescribed by physicians, our direct customers include a number of large pharmaceutical wholesale distributors and large pharmacy chains. The pharmaceutical wholesale distributors that comprise a significant portion of our customer base sell our products primarily to retail pharmacies, which ultimately dispense our products to the end consumers.

Increasingly, in North America, third-party payors, such as private insurance companies and drug plan benefit managers, aim to rationalize the use of pharmaceutical products and medical treatments, in order to ensure that prescribed products are necessary for the patients’ disorders. Moreover, large drug store chains now account for an increasing portion of retail sales of prescription medicines. The pharmacists and managers of such retail outlets are under pressure to reduce the number of items in inventory in order to reduce costs.

We use a “pull-through” marketing approach that is typical of pharmaceutical companies. Under this approach, our sales representatives actively promote our portfolio products by demonstrating the features and benefits of our products to physicians and, in particular, gastroenterologists and cystic fibrosis centers who may prescribe our products for their patients. The patients, in turn, take the prescriptions to pharmacies to be filled. The pharmacies then place orders, directly or through buying groups, with the wholesalers, to whom we sell our products.

Our expenses are comprised primarily of selling and administrative expenses (including marketing expenses), cost of goods sold (including royalty payments to those companies from which we license some of our commercialized products), research and development expenses, financial expenses as well as depreciation and amortization.

In March 2010, the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 was enacted in the U.S. This healthcare reform legislation contains several provisions that impact our business, which include expanding rebate coverage to managed Medicaid and an increase to the rate of rebates for all our drugs dispensed to Medicaid beneficiaries; expanding the 340(B) drug pricing program requiring drug manufacturers to provide discounted product to reduce the Medicare Part D coverage gap; and assessing a new fee on manufacturers and importers of branded prescription drugs paid for pursuant to coverage provided under specified government programs. The impact of these changes is further discussed below under the “Affordable Care Act” subsection.

On April 29, 2010, we announced that we had taken steps to cease the distribution of ULTRASEMT and VIOKASE, effective April 28, 2010, in response to FDA guidance related to the distribution of unapproved pancreatic enzyme products, or PEPs. The effects of ceasing to distribute these product lines on our financial statements are summarized in the section “Unapproved pancreatic enzyme products (“PEPs”) event” below.

Acquisition of Eurand N.V. (“Eurand Acquisition”)

On February 11, 2011 or Acquisition Date, Axcan Holdings Inc., which subsequently changed its name to Aptalis Holdings Inc. (“~~Axcan~~Aptalis Holdings”), the Company’s indirect parent, and Axcan Pharma Holding B.V. (“Axcan AcquisitionCo”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated November 30, 2010 (as amended) acquired ~~95.6%~~ ~~(99.1% after giving effect to~~ the ~~additional shares that are guaranteed to be delivered under a notice of guaranteed delivery) of the~~ outstanding ~~shares~~equity of Eurand N.V. (“Eurand”) for ~~a purchase price of $12.00 per share in cash resulting in~~ total consideration of approximately $589.6 million ~~for~~ ~~100% of such shares~~equity. ~~We acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Eurand by March 31, 2011.~~ As a result of the acquisition, Eurand has become an indirect subsidiary. ~~In addition, Axcan~~ AcquisitionCo and other direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company acquired from Eurand substantially all of Eurand’s assets, including the capital stock of Eurand’s direct and indirect U.S. and foreign subsidiaries, and transferred the capital stock of former Eurand U.S. subsidiaries to the Company.

Prior to the transaction, Eurand was a specialty pharmaceutical company that developed, manufactured and commercialized enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products based on its proprietary pharmaceutical technologies. Eurand has had six products approved by the FDA since 2001 and has a pipeline of product candidates in development for itself and its collaboration partners. Its technology platforms include bioavailability enhancement of poorly soluble drugs, custom release profiles and taste-masking/orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) formulations. Eurand was a global company with facilities in the U.S. and Europe. The acquisition of Eurand ~~will~~enables ~~enable~~ us to leverage the combination of two leading specialty pharmaceutical players, expand our gastroenterology product portfolio and provide us with a proprietary R&D growth engine and technology platforms supported by an extensive patent portfolio to meaningfully diversify its business and expand its geographic and manufacturing footprint.

(ab) Each Eurand stock option, whether or not vested and exercisable on the acquisition date, was canceled for a cash payment equal to the excess of the per share value of the acquisition consideration over the per share exercise price of the Eurand stock option.

The aggregate equity purchase price of $589.6 million plus acquisition costs (including related fees and expenses) were funded by cash equity contributions, made through Aptalis Holdings Inc., amounting to $140.0 million from affiliates of TPG Capital L.P. and certain co-investors, the proceeds from the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility (as defined below) under the Company’s amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements and cash on hand from Aptalis and Eurand.

The amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements is composed of (i) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $147.0 million (the “Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility”) and (ii) a $750.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Senior Secured Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, collectively, the “Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of $115.0 million of existing revolving credit commitments that were extended or issued on February 11, 2011 (the “ Extended Commitments”) and $32.0 million of existing revolving credit commitments that were not extended (the “ Unextended Commitments”) pursuant to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility.

Basis of presentation

The transaction has been accounted for in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under existing U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date including acquired in-process research and development assets.

Page 37

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed

A preliminary purchase price allocation has been made and the recorded amounts are subject to change. The following recognized amounts are provisional and subject to change:

• Amounts and useful lives for identifiable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, pending the finalization of valuation ~~efforts~~; • Amounts for income tax assets and liabilities, pending finalization of estimates and assumptions in respect of certain tax aspects of the transaction, revision to fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, and the filing of Eurand’s pre-acquisition tax returns; and • The allocation of goodwill among reporting units.

We will finalize the purchase price allocation as we obtain the information necessary to complete the measurement process. Any changes resulting from facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date may result in retrospective adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Resulting from the preliminary purchase price allocation, the following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.

							Amounts

(ai) As of acquisition date, the fair value of accounts receivable acquired approximated book value. The gross contractual amount receivable was $23.2 million, of which $0.5 million was not expected to be collected. (bj) Reflects the adjustment to step-up the carrying value of inventory acquired by $18.7 million to estimated fair value as of February 11, 2011. The stepped-up value is recorded as a charge to cost of goods sold as acquired inventory is sold. (ck) Includes prepaid assets and income tax receivable. (dl) The amounts recorded for the major components of acquired identifiable intangible assets are as follows:


	Amounts		Weighted

(go) The excess of purchase price over the fair value amounts assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill amount resulting from the acquisition. The goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition is largely attributable to synergies expected to result from combining the operations of Eurand and the Company and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Company does not expect any portion of this goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes. The allocation of goodwill among reporting units is not complete, pending finalization of the Company’s internal reporting structure and composition of its post-acquisition operating segments and reporting units. (p) The Company had entered into an exclusive development license and supply agreement with Eurand. No gain or loss was recognized in conjunction with the effective settlement of the contractual relationship between the Company and Eurand as a result of this acquisition.

(h) The Company had entered into an exclusive development license and supply agreement with Eurand. No gain or loss was recognized in conjunction with the effective settlement of the contractual relationship between the Company and Eurand as a result of this acquisition.

Transaction related costs

During the ~~six-month~~three ~~period~~and nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, we have expensed $110.35 million and $11.8 million respectively (an additional $1.1 million was expensed in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010) of costs relating to legal, financial, valuation and accounting advisory services performed in connection with effecting the ~~transaction~~ ~~with~~acquisition of Eurand, which are included in Transaction, ~~acquisition~~restructuring and ~~restructuring~~integration costs in the accompanying Statement of Condensed ~~Interim~~ Consolidated Operations.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 11, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”) among Aptalis Holdings, Merger Sub, Mpex and certain stockholders of Mpex who will serve as representatives of the Mpex security holders under the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Mpex, with Mpex surviving (the “Surviving Company”) as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Aptalis Holdings and a direct wholly-owned unrestricted subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate merger consideration that the Mpex security holders will receive, subject to the consummation of the Merger, consists of (i) the non-contingent payments mentioned above; (ii) contingent payments of up to $195 million if certain regulatory and commercial milestones are met related to Aeroquin™, and (iii) earn-out payments based on net sales of Aeroquin™. Indemnity obligations of the Mpex security holders will be satisfied by set-off against a portion of the foregoing merger consideration payments.

The Merger is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2011.The further development of Aeroquin™ will be conducted pursuant to the terms of the Development Agreement dated April 11, 2011 among Aptalis Holdings, Merger Sub, and Mpex. Upon completion of the divestiture of assets and liabilities unrelated to Aeroquin™ (the “Divestiture”) to a newly formed company (“Spinco”), Spinco will assume all of Mpex’s obligations under the Development Agreement. Under the Development Agreement, Mpex (and after the Divestiture, Spinco) will be paid for the actual development costs of Aeroquin™ and will have primary responsibility for conducting day-to-day development activities. Aptalis Holdings will be required to pay in advance development costs estimated for the next three months based on a rolling three month forecast. Aptalis Holdings and Merger Sub will have input regarding development strategy. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, on April 12, 2011 Mpex was paid $8.7 million for development expenses incurred by Mpex since November 15, 2010, which has been expensed as acquired in-process research and an additional $9.9 million for estimated development costs to be incurred during the first three months of the Development Agreement, of which $8.5 million has been expensed as research and development. All payments under the Development Agreement, Option Agreement and Merger Agreement to Mpex or Mpex security holders, as applicable, will be made by or on behalf of Merger Sub (or after the consummation of the Merger, the Surviving Company).

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company expensed $50.2 million as acquired in-process research and development reflecting the initial non-contingent payment of $12.0 million, the discounted value of future time-based non-contingent payments payable under the Option agreement of $29.5 million (with a corresponding liability) and the payment towards certain pre-agreement incurred development expenses of $8.7 million. As of June 30, 2011, $8.7 million reflecting forecasted development costs for the next three months is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Equity investment in Aptalis Holdings

Simultaneous with the execution of the Mpex agreements, Aptalis Holdings received the proceeds of a $55.0 million equity investment from funds managed by Investor Growth Capital Limited. Aptalis Holdings contributed the proceeds of the equity investment to its subsidiaries to fund a portion of the cost of the Mpex transactions and a partial repayment on the Company’s $133.2 million note receivable from its parent company.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW FOR THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011

This discussion and analysis is based on our unaudited condensed interim financial statements as of June 30, 2011 and our audited annual consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto reported under U.S. GAAP. The results of Eurand’s business have been included in our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows only for the period subsequent to the completion of the Acquisition Date. For a description of our products prior to the Eurand acquisition, see the section entitled “Business Products” in Item 1, Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, total revenue was $131.2 million ($80.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010), operating loss was $62.5 million ($0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010) and net loss was $80.8 million ($9.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010). For the nine months ended June 30, 2011, total revenue was $328.5 million ($285.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010), operating loss was $60.7 million ($106.8 million for the corresponding period of fiscal year 2010) and net loss was $151.0 million ($164.2 million for the corresponding period of fiscal year 2010).

Total revenue in the United States was $91.8 million (70.0% of total revenue) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $56.3 million (69.9% of total revenue) for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. In the European Union, total revenue was $30.2 million (23.0% of total revenue) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $16.0 million (19.9% of total revenue) for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. In Canada, total revenue was $9.2 million (7.0% of total revenue) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $8.2 million (10.2% of total revenue) for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. Total revenue in the United States was $232.4 million (70.8% of total revenue) for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $211.1 million (74.1% of total revenue) for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. In the European Union, total revenue was $68.4 million (20.8% of total revenue) for the nine months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $49.0 million (17.2% of total revenue) for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. In Canada, total revenue was $27.7 million (8.4% of total revenue) for the nine months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $24.9 million (8.7% of total revenue) for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year.

Unapproved pancreatic enzyme products (“PEPs”) event

As previously disclosed, we ceased distributing our ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE product lines in the U.S. effective April 28, 2010. ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE had accounted for approximately 19% of our total net sales in the last three fiscal years ended September 30, 2009.

This action was taken as we did not receive FDA approval for ULTRASE MT or VIOKASE by April 28, 2010, the date mandated by the FDA to obtain approval for pancreatic enzyme products. We also interrupted shipments of product from the United States to Canada and export markets to allow time for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to review our request confirming that applicable export requirements were being met as the FDA does not currently allow any shipment of this product within the U.S. As of ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, this interruption of shipments was still in place.

We ~~completed~~are ~~the initial submission of our NDA for ULTRASE MT and,~~ in ~~the~~ongoing ~~fourth~~discussions ~~quarter~~with ~~of fiscal 2008, received a first complete response letter from~~ the FDA. ~~Further~~and tocontinue ~~the filing of our response~~ to ~~this~~work ~~letter, we received a second complete response letter from the FDA in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. On May 5, 2010 the FDA issued an additional complete response~~ with ~~respect to our NDA for ULTRASE MT. As was~~ the ~~case with prior letters, the FDA requires that deficiencies raised with respect to the manufacturing and control processes at the~~ manufacturer of the active pharmaceutical ingredient ~~of ULTRASE~~to MTaddress bethe ~~addressed~~remaining ~~before~~open ~~approval~~issues ~~can~~identified beby ~~granted. We have submitted our response to this letter to~~ the FDA. ~~that confirmed a November 28~~However, ~~2010~~we do ~~Prescription~~not ~~Drug~~believe ~~User~~those ~~Fee~~remaining ~~Act,~~issues orrequire ~~PDUFA,~~us ~~date for~~to ~~our~~conduct ~~ULTRASE~~additional MTclinical ~~NDA~~studies.

The submission of our rolling NDA for VIOKASE was completed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010. At the time we completed this submission, we requested a priority review and the FDA advised us in the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 that it would not grant a priority review for this NDA. The initial PDUFA date for VIOKASE was August 30, 2010. In August 2010, we received feedback from the FDA regarding the timeline to review the VIOKASE NDA. At that time, the FDA indicated that the review was progressing but postponed the PDUFA date to November 30, 2010, to allow more time to complete their review.

On November 28, 2010, the FDA issued complete response letters regarding the NDAs for ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE. The letters require that unresolved deficiencies raised with respect to the manufacturing and control processes at the manufacturer of the active ingredient for both ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE be addressed before approval can be granted. The letters also require that deficiencies identified in an FDA inspection of such manufacturer must be resolved before the NDAs can be approved. Based on information available to the Company, on or about January 20, 2010, the manufacturer of the active pharmaceutical ingredient to ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE received a warning letter from the FDA noting that certain deficiencies previously identified by the FDA in an inspection of such manufacturer have not yet been resolved. Failure by the manufacturer to promptly correct these violations may result in further regulatory action against the manufacturer.

We are in ongoing discussions with the FDA and continue to work with the manufacturer of the active pharmaceutical ingredient to address the remaining open issues identified by the FDA. However, those remaining issues do not require additional clinical studies.

As a result of taking steps to cease distribution of ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE and in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we recorded an additional $23.4 million sales deduction reserve for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. This additional reserve was an estimate of our liability for ULTRASEMT and VIOKASE that may be returned by the original purchaser under our DSAs or applicable return policies as well as other incremental sales deductions that may be incurred in addition to those previously recorded for ULTRASEMT and VIOKASEprior to the PEPs event. The cease distribution order issued by the FDA was not considered as a product recall. This reserve was based on management estimates of ULTRASEMT and VIOKASEinventory in the distribution channel, assumptions on related expiration dates of this inventory as well as estimated erosion of ULTRASEMT and VIOKASEdemand, based on competition from approved PEPs and the resulting estimated sell-through of ULTRASEMT and VIOKASE, actual return activity and other factors.

Page 40

The reserves that we have taken as a result of having ceased distribution of our PEPs reflect many subjective estimates that were required to be made by management. These estimates include:

a)		The quantity and expiration dates of PEPs inventory in the distribution channel;

b)		Short-term prescription demand during the period of time during which the products continued to be available at the pharmacy level;

c)		Other factors.

The reserve related to the PEPs event, was $5.3.2 million as at ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, ($11.0 million as at September 30, 2010). This reserve ~~includes~~was affected by a reversal of $3.7 million in the ~~quarter-ended~~nine ~~March~~months 31ended June 30, 2011 to reflect the estimated sales value of the remaining inventory in the ~~distribution~~ distribution channel as atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011. In future periods, we will continue to monitor and review the assumptions and estimates and will prospectively record changes to the PEPs reserve.

The stepped-up value is recorded as charge to cost of goods sold as acquired inventory is sold, until acquired inventory will be sold off. h) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are both non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and are presented in this report because our management considers them important supplemental measures of our performance and believes that they are frequently used by interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry. EBITDA, as we use it, is net income before financial expenses, interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe that EBITDA is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. The term EBITDA is not defined under U.S. GAAP, and EBITDA is not a measure of net income, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations. Adjusted EBITDA, as we use it, is EBITDA adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges, unusual or non-recurring items and other adjustments set forth below. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated in the same manner as “EBITDA” and “Consolidated EBITDA” as those terms are defined under the indentures governing our notes and Credit Facility further described in the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources-Long-term Debt and New Senior Secured Credit Facility”, except that in calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we do not include certain additional adjustments under the indenture and the Credit Facility that permit us to increase “EBITDA” and “Consolidated EBITDA” by including projected cost savings and synergies calculated on a pro forma basis that we expect to realize in future periods related to actions already taken or expected to be taken within twelve months of the end of the applicable period, including the Eurand Acquisition and related initiatives. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments applied to EBITDA in presenting Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and unusual or non-recurring items that we do not expect to continue in the future and to provide additional information with respect to our ability to meet our future debt service and to comply with various covenants in our indentures and Credit Facility. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and they should not be considered in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:portion

ⁱ⁾		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are both non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and are presented in this report because our management considers them important supplemental measures of our performance and believes that they are frequently used by interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry. EBITDA, as we use it, is net income before financial expenses, interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe that EBITDA is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. The term EBITDA is not defined under U.S. GAAP, and EBITDA is not a measure of net income, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations. Adjusted EBITDA, as we use it, is EBITDA adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges, unusual or non-recurring items and other adjustments set forth above. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated in the same manner as “EBITDA” and “Consolidated EBITDA” as those terms are defined under the indentures governing our notes and Credit Facility further described in the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources-Long-term Debt and New Senior Secured Credit Facility”, except that in calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we do not include certain additional adjustments under the indenture and the Credit Facility that permit us to increase “EBITDA” and “Consolidated EBITDA” by including projected cost savings and synergies calculated on a pro forma basis that we expect to realize in future periods related to actions already taken or expected to be taken within twelve months of the end of the applicable period, including the Eurand Acquisition and related initiatives. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments applied to EBITDA in presenting Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and unusual or non-recurring items that we do not expect to continue in the future and to provide additional information with respect to our ability to meet our future debt service and to comply with various covenants in our indentures and Credit Facility. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and they should not be considered in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

	•		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect all cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments;

	•		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs;

	•		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;

	•		Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

	•		Adjusted EBITDA reflects additional adjustments as provided in the indentures governing our secured and unsecured notes and new senior secured credit facilities; and

	•		Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in our business. Our management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on the U.S. GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental information.

Net product sales

Net product sales in the U.S. amounted to $8087.9 million for the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, compared to $6956.63 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year, an increase of $1131.36 million (1656.21%) and $~~139~~227.21 million for the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, compared to $~~154~~211.81 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year, aan ~~decrease~~increase of $1516.6 0 million (107.16%). For the three-month period, the increase in sales in U.S. is mainly due to the inclusion of post-acquisition sales of legacy Eurand products ~~($19.1 million),~~amounting ~~higher sales volume of Carafate products ($6.6 million) and the favourable impact of the sales returns reserve related~~ to ~~the PEPs event (~~$1427.10 million~~), partially offset by the absence of Ultrase and Viokase product sales ($29~~.~~3 million).~~ For the ~~six~~ nine-month period, the ~~decrease~~increase in net products sales is mainly due to the inclusion of ~~absence~~post-acquisition sales of ~~Ultrase~~legacy ~~and~~Eurand ~~Viokase~~products ~~product~~amounting ~~sales~~to ($5946.90 million) ~~partially~~and ~~offset by~~ the favourable impact of the sales returns provision related to the PEPs event ~~(additional provision~~ amounting to $1019.4 7 million. ~~during~~The increase ~~the~~is ~~three-month~~partially ~~period~~offset ~~ended~~by ~~March 31,~~the ~~2010~~absence ~~and reversal~~ of ~~$3.7 million~~Ultrase ~~during~~and ~~the three-month~~Viokase ~~period~~product ~~ended March 31, 2011), higher~~ sales ~~volume~~amounting ofto ~~Carafate products (~~$1049.~~8 million)~~6 ~~and~~million byin the ~~increase~~nine ~~related~~months toended ~~the~~June 30, ~~inclusion of post-acquisition sales of legacy Eurand products ($19~~2010.~~1 million).~~

Net product sales in the European Union increased 22$13.6 million (85.0%), to $2029.6 million for the ~~three-month~~ ~~period~~three months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, compared to $16.80 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year and increased 16$18.6 million (38.0%) ~~from~~to $3267.6 million for the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~ months ended ~~March 31~~June 30, ~~2010~~2011, tofrom $3849.0 million for the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, ~~2011~~2010. The increase is mostly due to the inclusion of post-acquisition sales of legacy Eurand products amounting to $512.14 million and $17.6 million for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2011.

Net product sales in Canada increased 512.12%, to $89.32 million for the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March 31~~June 30, 2011, compared to $78.92 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year and increased 1011.82% ~~from~~to $1627.7 million for the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, ~~2010~~2011, tofrom $1824.59 million ~~for~~ for the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, ~~2011~~2010. The increase in sales resulted primarily from higher ~~sales~~ sales volume of SALOFALK combined with the positive impact of currency fluctuations compared to the preceding year, as the value of the Canadian dollar improved against the U.S. dollar by 7.4% for the three months and by 5.4% for the nine months ended June 30, 2011.

The decrease in total deductions as a percentage of gross product sales was mainly due to the PEPs event (additional provision amounting to $23.4 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2010 partially offset by a reversal of the provision amounting to $3.7 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2011).

Affordable Care Act

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, known together as the Affordable Care Act, enacted in the U.S in March 2010 contain several provisions that could impact our business.

Although many provisions of the new legislation do not take effect immediately, several provisions became effective during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. These include (1) an increase in the minimum Medicaid rebate to States participating in the Medicaid program on our branded prescription drugs; (2) the extension of the Medicaid rebate to Managed Care Organizations that dispense drugs to Medicaid beneficiaries; and (3) the expansion of the 340(B) Public Health Service Act drug pricing program, which provides outpatient drugs at reduced rates, to include certain children’s hospitals, free standing cancer hospitals, critical access hospitals, and rural referral centers.

In addition, beginning in 2011, the new law requires drug manufacturers to provide a 50% discount to Medicare beneficiaries for any covered prescription drugs purchased during a Medicare Part D coverage gap (i.e. the “donut hole”). Also, beginning in 2011, new fees will be assessed on all branded prescription drug manufacturers and importers. This fee will be calculated based upon each organization’s percentage share of total branded prescription drug sales to U.S. government programs (such as Medicare Parts B and D, Medicaid, Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense programs and TRICARE retail pharmacy program) made during the previous fiscal year. The aggregated industry wide fee is expected to total $28 billion through 2019, ranging from $2.5 billion to $4.1 billion annually. The Internal Revenue Service, or “IRS”, has issued guidance for calculating preliminary fees, but there is still uncertainty as to final implementation, since the IRS has requested public comment and may make changes in response. The new law also imposes a 2.3% excise tax on sales of certain taxable medical devices that are made after December 31, 2012, including our FLUTTER mucus clearance device. Further, effective March 31, 2013, the law requires pharmaceutical, medical device, biological, and medical supply manufacturers to begin reporting to the federal government the payments they make to physicians and teaching hospitals, and physician ownership interests in those entities. The law also provides for the creation of an abbreviated regulatory pathway for FDA approval of biosimilars and interchangeable biosimilar products. While creation of the biosimilars program is authorized as of passage of the legislation in 2010, the process of creating the regulatory pathway for approval of biosimilars will likely be lengthy, and the FDA is in the process of soliciting public input.

While certain aspects of the new legislation implemented in 2010 are expected to reduce our revenues in future years, other provisions of this legislation may offset, at some level, any reduction in revenues when these provisions become effective. In future years, based on our understanding, these other provisions are expected to result in higher revenues due to an increase in the total number of patients covered by health insurance and an expectation that existing insurance coverage will provide more comprehensive consumer protections. This would include a federal subsidy for a portion of a beneficiary’s out-of-pocket cost under Medicare Part D. However, these higher revenues will be negatively impacted by the branded prescription drug manufacturers’ fee.

The impact in terms of additional reserves recorded has been $0.56 million for the three~~-month period~~ months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011 and $2.28 million for the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011 compared to $0.8 3 million inand ~~the~~$1.1 million ~~three-month~~for ~~and~~ the ~~six-month~~same periods of last year.

Development fees

For the three~~-month~~ and ~~six~~nine ~~month~~months ~~periods~~ ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, development fees amounted to $01.64 million and $2.0 million respectively. These fees resulted from the inclusion of Eurand’s business in the post-acquisition period. Development of a new pharmaceutical formulation generally includes the following stages:

• feasibility and prototype development; • formulation optimization and preparation of pilot clinical samples; • scale-up, validation and preparation of clinical samples for regulatory and commercial purposes; • clinical trials; and • preparation of documents and regulatory filings.

• formulation optimization and preparation of pilot clinical samples;

• scale-up, validation and preparation of clinical samples for regulatory and commercial purposes;

• clinical trials; and

• preparation of documents and regulatory filings.

The Company applies its proprietary pharmaceutical technologies in one of two ways — either to develop products on behalf of our collaborators or as internal programs. In both situations, the Company is involved in all stages of the formulation development process and performs largely the same types of work although, in general, the Company only performs clinical trials for the products we develop internally. Clinical trials for co-developed products are typically performed by our collaboration partners. For internal projects, we fund all of the development costs with a view either to out-license the product once it is fully developed and has obtained the applicable regulatory approvals, or to market it directly.

In our typical co-development contract, we generally receive development fees and milestones payments from our collaborators. Most of our current co-development agreements provide for us to ~~perform~~ perform development activities based on an hourly service fee. Our current co-development agreements also typically include provisions for the receipt of milestone payments upon the achievement of certain development and/or regulatory milestones including, by way of example, successful completion of development phases, successful demonstration of bioequivalence, and acceptance and approval by the applicable regulatory agencies. Milestone payments are usually structured as lump sum payments, which are due if and when we reach certain mutually agreed-upon development milestones as set forth in the agreements. In many cases, achievement of such milestone payments is based on factors that are out of our control, including, among other things, regulatory approval of the product. In addition, in many cases, decisions directly affecting the receipt of these payments are made at the sole discretion of our collaborator. Due to the structure of our co-development agreements and the inherent difficulty in predicting progress on development plans, our development fees may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. In addition, development fees will fluctuate depending on the number of co-development agreements we enter into in a given year or quarter.

Royalties

For the three~~-month~~ and ~~six~~nine ~~month~~months ~~periods~~ ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, royalties amounted to $13.01 million and $4.1 million respectively and resulted from the inclusion of legacy Eurand’s business in the post-acquisition period. The Company earns royalty revenues from its collaborators equal to a percentage of their ~~product~~ sales of products which we assisted in the development of.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold consists principally of the cost of raw materials, royalties and manufacturing. For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, cost of goods sold ~~decreased~~increased $3627.37 million (53133.2%) to to $3148.95 million from $6820.28 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. As a percentage of net product sales, cost of goods sold for the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, increased ~~decreased~~ compared to the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year to 2938.13% from 72 25.28% mostly due to the ~~unapproved~~expense ~~PEPs~~associated ~~event. For the six-month period ended March 31, 2011, cost of goods sold decreased $45.5 million (48.0%)~~ to ~~$49.3 million from $94.8 for~~ the ~~corresponding period~~inventory ~~ended~~stepped ~~March 31,~~up ~~2010. As a percentage of net product sales, cost of goods sold for the six-month period ended March 31, 2011 decreased compared~~ to ~~the~~fair ~~corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year to 25~~value.~~2% from 46.4% primarily due to provisions taken as a result of the~~ ~~unapproved PEPs event.~~

~~Excluding~~For the ~~unapproved~~nine ~~PEPs~~months ~~during the three-month period~~ ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, cost of goods sold asdecreased $17.8 million (15.4% ) to $97.8 million from $115.6 for the corresponding period ended June 30, 2010. As a percentage of net product sales, ~~would~~cost ~~have~~of ~~been~~goods sold for the nine months ended June 30~~.1%~~, 2011 decreased compared to ~~32.3% for~~ the ~~three-month~~corresponding period ~~ended~~of ~~March 31,~~the ~~2010~~preceding ~~and~~fiscal 25year to 30.83% ~~compared~~from ~~to 26~~40.16% ~~for~~primarily due to the unfavourable ~~six-month~~impact ~~period~~from ~~ended~~the provisions taken as a result of the unapproved PEPs event in the nine ~~March~~months ended June 3130, 2010 amounting to $44.9 million. The ~~decreases~~decrease related to the unapproved PEPs event was partially offset by the additional expense associated with the inventory stepped up to fair value as a result of the Eurand transaction. As part of the purchase price allocation for the Eurand Acquisition, the book value of the inventory acquired was stepped up to fair value by $18.7 million as at Acquisition Date. The stepped- up value is recorded as charge to cost of goods sold as acquired inventory is sold, until the acquired inventory ~~will~~is be sold off. An amount of $413.1 million and $17.4 million was expensed during the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~and nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011 respectively.

Excluding the impact of the unapproved PEPs, the charge related to the inventory stepped-up value and the integration of Eurand business, cost of goods sold as a percentage of net product sales would have been 21.1% compared to 20.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 25.2% compared to 22.9% for the nine months ended June 30, 2010.

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses, on an ongoing basis, consist principally of salaries and other costs associated with our sales force and marketing activities. For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~ June 3130, 2011, selling and administrative expenses increased $1011.59 million (3643.94%) to $3839.9 3 million from $2827.4 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~ ~~period~~nine ~~ended~~months ~~March~~ended June 3130, 2011, selling and administrative expenses increased $315.54 million (517.85% ) to $64103.1 4 million from $6088.60 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. The increases are ~~mainly~~ resulting from the inclusion of legacy Eurand’s business in the post-acquisition period amounting to $1115.10 million for the three months and an$21.8 million ~~increase~~for inthe ~~non-cash~~nine ~~stock-based~~months ended June ~~compensation~~30, ~~expense~~2011. The increases were partially offset by a reduction of ULTRASE ~~AND~~and VIOKASE ~~products~~ products marketing expenses and patient programs.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company completed the rationalization of its sales force as part of its cost reduction initiatives. Separation costs associated with sales force reductions are reflected in transaction, restructuring and integration costs as discussed below. The associated synergies will be realized to a greater extent in future quarters

Management fees

Management fees consist of fees and other charges associated with the Management Services Agreement with TPG. For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, management fees ~~decreased~~increased $0.23 million (2050.0%) ) to $0.89 million from $1.0.6 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, and June 30, 2010, management fees ~~decreased~~amounted ~~$0.3 million (15.8%)~~ to $12.65 million ~~from $1~~.~~9 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year.~~

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses refer to internal research and development expense and consist principally of fees paid to outside parties that we use to conduct clinical studies and to submit governmental approval applications on our behalf, as well as the salaries and benefits paid to personnel involved in research and development projects. For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, research and development expenses increased $311.20 million (41127.69% ) to $1019.96 million, from $78.76 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended June ~~March 31~~30, 2011, research and development expenses increased $112.8 million (1151.28% ) to $1737.95 million, ~~from~~ from $1624.17 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. The increase in ~~research~~ research and development expenses is mainly due to (i) the inclusion of expenses associated with Eurand activities in the post-acquisition period amounting to $24.1 million for the three months and $6.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 and (ii) expenses of $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 incurred under the Mpex Development Agreement as described in the Aeroquin transaction section above. ~~The~~This increase was partially offset by the reduction in expenses related to the development work on PEPs for the ~~six-month period~~nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011.

The Company incurs research and development expense on a number of external projects with third parties that generate development fee revenues and consist principally of personnel cost. For the three-month and six month periods ended March 31, 2011, research and development expenses attributable to development fees amounted to $0.9 million and resulting from the inclusion of expenses associated with Eurand activities in the post-acquisition period.

Other research and development expenses attributable to development fees

The Company incurs research and development expense on a number of external projects with third parties that generate development fee revenues and consist principally of personnel cost. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011, research and development expenses attributable to development fees amounted to $1.5 million and $2.4 million respectively and resulted from the inclusion of expenses associated with Eurand activities in the post-acquisition period.

Acquired in-process research

Acquired in-process research represents incomplete research and development projects acquired in a business combination or an asset acquisition which, at the time of acquisition are determined to have no future alternative use. The fair value of in-process research acquired in a business combination is capitalized as indefinite-lived intangible asset subject to impairment testing until completion or abandonment of the project. The fair value of in-process research acquired as part of an asset acquisition is expensed on acquisition.

On April 11, 2011, Aptalis Holdings, an indirect parent company of the Company, entered into a series of agreements with Mpex Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Mpex”) for the acquisition and development of Aeroquin™ (the “Aeroquin Transaction”), a proprietary aerosol formulation of levofloxacin, which is currently in Phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of pulmonary infections in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Under these agreements, Aptalis Holdings has an option to acquire all of Mpex’s assets related to Aeroquin™ in a merger, with continued development of Aeroquin™ by Mpex under the terms of a Development Agreement between the parties. As a result of the Aeroquin Transaction, the Company made an initial non-contingent payment of $12.0 million on April 21, 2011.

The further development of Aeroquin™ will be conducted pursuant to the terms of the Development Agreement dated April 11, 2011 among Aptalis Holdings, Merger Sub, and Mpex. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, on April 12, 2011 Mpex was paid $8.7 million for development expenses incurred by Mpex since November 15, 2010 and $9.9 million for estimated development costs to be incurred during the first three months of the Development Agreement.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we expensed $50.2 million as acquired in-process research and development reflecting the initial non-contingent payment of $12.0 million, the discounted value of future time-based non-contingent payments payable under the Option agreement of $29.5 million (with a corresponding liability) and the payment towards certain pre-agreement incurred development expenses of $8.7 million

During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, we entered into an asset purchase and license agreement to acquire rights in and to the intellectual property, assigned contracts, permits and inventories related to a compound to be used in the development of an undisclosed product in the field of gastroenterology. Certain other rights were licensed under the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, we made an upfront payment of $8.0 million on closing and additional payments of up to $86.0 million based on the achievement of certain development, regulatory and commercialization milestones. In addition, we will pay royalties on the basis of net sales. We completed the asset acquisition in April 2010 and recorded an expense of $8.0 million for the payment of acquired in-process research in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010.

Loss on disposal of product line

On March 28, 2011, we entered into a definitive agreement with Pinnacle Biologics, Inc., which acquired all global assets and rights related to PHOTOFRIN/PHOTOBARR, including inventory, for non-contingent payments amounting to $4.2 million. In addition to the non-contingent payments, additional payments ~~shall~~will be made to us after the achievement of certain milestones events. In addition, the Company will be paid royalties on annual net sales of PHOTOFRIN/PHOTOBARR.

During the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, we recorded a loss of $7.4 million as a result of the disposal of the PHOTOFRIN/PHOTOBARR product line. Consideration for additional contingent payments to be made to the Company shall be recorded as a gain in the period in which they are received.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization consists principally of the amortization of intangible assets with a finite life. Intangible assets include trademarks, trademark licenses and manufacturing rights. For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, depreciation and amortization increased $45.49 million (3139.41%) ) to $1821.40 million from $1415.01 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, depreciation and amortization increased $17.3 2 million (415.27%) ) to $3253.0 million from 30$45.78 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. These increases are mainly due to additional depreciation and amortization of intangible assets recognized on the acquisition of Eurand.

Transaction, restructuring and integration costs

During the ~~six-month~~three ~~period~~and nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, we have expensed $110.35 million and $11.8 million respectively (an additional $1.1 million was expensed in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010) of costs relating to legal, financial, valuation and accounting advisory services performed in connection with effecting the transaction with Eurand, which are included in Transaction, ~~acquisition~~restructuring and ~~restructuring~~integration costs in the accompanying Statement of Condensed Consolidated Operations.

We have initiated restructuring measures in conjunction with the integration of the operations of Eurand. These measures are intended to capture synergies and generate cost savings across the Company.

During the ~~quarter~~three and nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, we recorded a restructuring expense ~~in the amount~~ of $53.07 million and $8.7 million respectively related to planned employee termination costs. Employee termination costs are generally recorded when the actions are probable and estimable and include accrued severance benefits and health insurance continuation, many of which may be paid out during periods after termination.

~~The~~We ~~Company~~estimate ~~estimates~~we towill incur additional restructuring costs of between $1713.20 million and $2117.3 0 million, ~~in connection~~primarily ~~with~~consisting ~~planned~~of ~~employee~~severance ~~termination~~ costs. The restructuring actions taken thus far are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2012.

Through ~~March~~the nine months ended June 3130, 2011, ~~the~~we ~~Company~~have ~~has~~ incurred integration costs of $614.05 million ~~representing~~ representing certain external, incremental costs directly related to integrating the ~~acquired~~ Eurand business and primarily include expenditures for consulting and systems integration.

Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill

The value of goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life are subject to an annual impairment test unless events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable. The intangible assets with a finite life and property, plant and equipment are subject to an impairment test whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable. As a result of the unapproved PEPs event, we compared the carrying value of the intangible assets with a finite life affected by the unapproved PEPs event to estimated future undiscounted cash flows. The change in circumstances associated with the unapproved PEPs event also caused us to review the carrying value of our long lived intangible assets including goodwill. Based on this review, aan ~~preliminary~~ impairment charge of $107.2 million was recorded ~~for~~during the ~~three-month~~nine ~~and~~months ~~six-month periods~~ ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2010, reflecting charges of $91.4 million for the goodwill allocated to our U.S. reporting unit and of $15.8 million related to finite life intangible assets.

Financial expenses

Financial expenses consist principally of interest and fees paid in connection with funds borrowed primarily for ~~acquisitions~~the Eurand acquisition and for the acquisition of the Company by TPG Capital in February 2008. For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, financial expenses increased $134.94 million (8527.30%) to $3020.27 million from $16.3 million for the corresponding period of the preceding ~~fiscal~~ fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, financial expenses increased $1318.9 3 million (4237.85%) to $4667.41 million from $3248.58 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~three-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, financial expenses included certain one-time fees related to bridge financing and the renegotiation of our credit agreement. On February 11, 2011, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements in connection with the Eurand Acquisition as described in the Long-term ~~debt~~ Debt and Credit Facility section below.

Page 49

Loss on extinguishment of debt

In conjunction with the Eurand Acquisition, the proceeds of the debt and equity financing were used to repay the outstanding term loan amounting to $125.7 million of our then existing senior secured credit facilities. Subsequent to the Eurand Acquisition, we redeemed our existing 9.25% senior secured notes of $228.0 million due 2015 at a ~~premium~~price ofequal to 106.938% of the outstanding principal amount of the notes. The difference between the net carrying value and the repayment price of the outstanding term loan and 9.25% senior secured notes was recognized as a loss on extinguishment of debt. For the ~~three-month~~nine ~~and~~months ~~six-month periods~~ ended ~~March~~ June 3130, 2011, ~~loss~~Loss on ~~Extinguishment~~extinguishment of ~~Debt~~debt amounted to $28.3 million and comprised of the write-off of the unamortized deferred financing fees, the original issuance discount and the redemption premium.

Interest income

For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, total interest income decreased to $0.1 million from $0.2 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month period~~nine months ended ~~March 31~~June 30, 2011, ~~and~~total ~~the~~interest ~~six-month~~income ~~period~~decreased ~~ended~~to ~~March~~$0.4 ~~31,~~million ~~2010,~~from ~~total interest income amounted~~ $0.35 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year.

Other income

In June 2007, we initiated a lawsuit under the U.S. Lanham Act against a number of defendants alleging they falsely advertised their products to be similar or equivalent to ULTRASE® MT. During the ~~three-month~~nine ~~and~~months ~~six-month periods~~ ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2010, an amount of $7.7 million was paid to us pursuant to settlement arrangements entered into with the defendants in these matters.

Income taxes

For the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, income tax benefit amounted to $42.40 million compared to income tax ~~expense~~benefit of $215.84 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, income tax benefit amounted to $35.3 million compared to income tax expense of $2116.62 million for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. The effective tax rate was 52.95%, for the three~~-month~~ ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, compared to ~~minus 15~~35.45% for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. For the ~~six-month~~ ~~period~~nine months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, the effective tax rate was 43.54% compared to ~~minus 16~~minus10.39% for the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. The effective tax rate for the three~~-month~~ and ~~six-month~~nine ~~periods~~months ended ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, is affected by a number of elements, the most important being the non-deductibility of certain expenses and the establishment of a valuation allowance of $2945.57 million during the ~~six-month~~nine ~~period~~months ended ~~March~~ June 3130, 2011 mainly against our net deferred tax assets ~~mostly~~generated ~~attributable~~in to the U.S. ~~reporting~~ ~~unit.~~ If, in future periods, the deferred tax assets are determined by management to be more likely than not to be realized, the tax benefits relating to the reversal of the valuation allowance will be recorded.

The difference between our effective tax rate and the statutory income tax rate is summarized as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash requirements

As atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, working capital was approximately $97108.86 million and $115.4 million as atof September 30, 2010. Cash generated from operations, is used to fund working capital, capital expenditures, milestone payments, debt service and business development activities. We regularly review product and other acquisition opportunities and may therefore require additional debt or equity financing. We cannot be certain that such additional financing, if required, will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

OnThe ~~February 11,~~aggregate ~~2011~~equity orpurchase ~~Acquisition~~price ~~Date, Axcan Holdings Inc. (“Axcan Holdings”), our indirect parent, and Axcan Pharma Holding B.V.

The aggregate equity purchase price of $589.6 million plus acquisition costs (including related fees and expenses) were funded by cash equity contributions amounting to $140.0 million from affiliates of TPG Capital L.P. and certain co-investors, the proceeds from the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility (as defined below) under the Company’s amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements and cash on hand from Aptalis and Eurand.

The amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements is composed of (i) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $147.0 million (the “Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility”) and (ii) a $750.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Senior Secured Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, collectively, the “Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The Company borrowed $500.0 million of the amount available under the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility at the closing of the acquisition. The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility remained undrawn at the closing of the acquisition.

A portion of the proceeds of the equity and debt financings, together with cash on hand of Aptalis and Eurand, were also used to repay the outstanding term loan portion amounting to $125.7 million of the Company’s existing senior secured credit facilities and to pay related fees and expenses. The remaining amount of $250.0 million of the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility was used on March 15, 2011 to redeem 100% of the Company’s existing 9.25% senior secured notes due 2015.

There are currently two rating agencies (Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s) rating ~~AIH’s~~our debt. These ratings are revised from time to time.

Contractual obligations and other commitments

The following table summarizes our significant contractual obligations as atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, and ~~the~~ the effect such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future years. ~~This~~ This table excludes the payment of amounts already recorded on the balance sheet as current ~~liabilities~~ liabilities as atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, and certain other purchase obligations as discussed below:

Purchase orders for raw materials, finished goods and other goods and services are not included in the above table. Management is not able to accurately determine the aggregate amount of such purchase orders that represent contractual obligations, as purchase orders may represent authorizations to purchase rather than binding agreements. For the purpose of this table, contractual obligations for the purchase of goods or services are only included in other commitments where there exist agreements that are legally binding and enforceable on us and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Our purchase orders are based on current needs and are fulfilled by our vendors within relatively short timetables. We do not have significant agreements for the purchase of raw materials or finished goods specifying minimum quantities or set prices that exceed our short-term expected requirements. We also enter into contracts for outsourced services; however, the obligations under these contracts are not significant and the contracts generally contain clauses allowing for cancellation without significant penalty. As milestone payments are primarily contingent upon successfully achieving clinical milestones or on receiving regulatory approval for products under development, they do not have defined maturities and therefore are not included in the above table.

Page 5253

The expected timing of payment of the obligations discussed above is estimated based on current information. The timing of payments and actual amounts paid may differ depending on the timing of receipt of goods or services, or, for some obligations, changes to agreed-upon amounts.

As atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, we had unrecognized tax benefits of $1112.70 million ($11.3 million as atof September 30, 2010). Due to the nature and timing of the ultimate outcome of these uncertain tax positions, we cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the amount and period of related future payments. Therefore, our unrecognized tax benefits with respect to our uncertain tax positions has been excluded from the above contractual obligations table.

Long-term debt and Credit Facility

On February 11, 2011, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement and related security and other agreements in connection with the Eurand Acquisition.

We borrowed $500.0 million of the amount available under the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility at the closing of the acquisition. The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility remained undrawn at the closing of the acquisition. A portion of the proceeds of the equity and debt financings, together with cash on hand of Aptalis and Eurand, were used to repay the outstanding term loan portion amounting to $125.7 million of our existing senior secured credit facilities and to pay related fees and expenses. Following the repayment, all unamortized deferred financing fees of $2.7 million and original issuance discount of $3.2 million related to the term loan were written off and are included in ~~loss~~Loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying Statement of Condensed Interim Consolidated Operations. The remaining amount of $250.0 million of the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility was drawn on March 15, 2011 to redeem our existing 9.25% senior secured notes due 2015.

On February 25, 2008, the Company issued $228.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 9.25% senior secured notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”) due March 1, 2015. The Senior Secured Notes were priced at $0.98737 with a 10% yield to March 1, 2015. On March 15, 2011, $250.0 million of the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility was used to redeem 100% of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of 106.938%. The aggregate redemption amount consisted of $228.0 million in aggregate principal amount, $0.8 million accrued interest and $15.8 million of redemption premium which is included in ~~loss~~Loss on extinguishment orof debt in the accompanying Statement of Condensed Interim Consolidated Operations. Following the redemption all unamortized deferred financing fees of $5.0 million and original issuance discount of $1.7 million related to these notes were written off and are included in ~~loss~~Loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying Statement of Condensed Interim Consolidated Operations.

The Company’s Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities totaling $897.0 million is composed of a Senior Secured Term Loan Facility amounting to $750.0 million and a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility totaling $147.0 million. The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of $115.0 million of existing revolving credit commitments that were extended or issued on February 11, 2011 (the “ Extended Commitments”) and $32.0 million of existing revolving credit commitments that were not extended (the “ Unextended Commitments”) pursuant to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. The Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities bear interest at a variable rate composed of either (i) the highest of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, Bank of America, N.A.’s “prime rate”, or the one month British Banker Association LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, or (ii) the British Banker Association LIBOR rate (subject to a floor) of 1.50% with respect to borrowings under the Senior Secured ~~Revolving~~Term Loan Facility at the option of the Company, plus an applicable rate established by the credit agreement governing the Amended and Restated Secnior Secured Credit Facilities (including, with respect to borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, step-downs based on the company’s consolidated total leverage ratio). The principal amount of the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the original principal amount with payments beginning in ~~fiscal year~~ March 2011. The principal amount outstanding of the loans under the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility will be due and payable on February 11, 2017. The principal amount of outstanding loans under the Senior Secured Revolving Facility will be due and payable on February 11, 2016 with respect to Extended Commitments and on February 25, 2014 with respect to Unextended Commitments.

As atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, $750.0 million of term loans had been issued and no amounts are currently drawn against the ~~revolving~~Senior ~~credit~~Secured ~~facility~~Revolving Credit Facility.

The credit agreement governing the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants, beginning the quarter ending June 30, 2011. The maintenance of these financial covenants is solely with respect to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. These covenants were met as of June 30, 2011. The credit agreement governing the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facility requires the Company to prepay outstanding term loans contingent upon the occurrence of events, subject to

certain exceptions, with: (1) 100% of the net cash proceeds of any incurrence of debt other than debt permitted under the credit agreement governing the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, (2) commencing with the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, 50% (which percentage will be reduced if the senior secured leverage ratio is less than a specified ratio) of the annual excess cash flow (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility) and (3) 100% of the net cash proceeds of all non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property (including casualty events) by the Company or by its subsidiaries, subject to reinvestments rights and certain other exceptions.

Pursuant to the annual excess cash flow requirements of our credit agreement in effect prior to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Company was required to prepay $13.2 million of outstanding term loans in the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 ($17.6 million for the fiscal year 2009 which was paid in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010).

On May 6, 2008, the Company issued $235.0 million of 12.75% senior unsecured notes due March 1, 2016, (the “Senior Unsecured Notes”). The Senior Unsecured Notes were priced at $0.9884 with a yield to maturity of 13.16%. The Senior Unsecured Notes are subordinated to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Significant accounting policies

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, applied on a consistent basis. Some of our critical accounting policies require the use of judgment in their application or require estimates of inherently uncertain matters. Therefore, a change in the facts and circumstances of an underlying transaction could significantly change the application of our accounting policies to that transaction, which could have an effect on our financial statements. The policies that management believes are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application are discussed below.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and also affect the recognized amounts of revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. Estimates are used when accounting for amounts recorded in connection with acquisitions, including fair value determinations of assets and liabilities. Other significant estimates and assumptions made by management include those related to the charges to be recorded in conjunction with ceasing of distributing ~~PEPs~~ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE, allowances for accounts receivable, inventories, reserves for product returns, rebates, chargebacks and DSA fees, the classification of intangible assets between finite life and indefinite life, the useful lives of long-lived assets, the expected cash flows used in evaluating long-lived assets, goodwill and investments for impairment, stock based compensation costs, pending legal settlements and the establishment of provisions for income taxes including the realizability of deferred tax assets. The estimates are made using the historical information and various other relevant factors available to management. We review all significant estimates affecting the financial statements on a recurring basis and record the effect of any adjustments when necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates based upon future events, which could include, among other risks, changes in regulations governing the manner in which we sell our products, changes in the healthcare environment, foreign exchange and managed care consumption patterns.

The charges that we have recorded as a result of having ceased distribution of ~~our~~ULTRASE ~~PEPs~~MT ~~also~~and VIOKASE also reflect many subjective estimates that were required to be made by management. These ~~estimates~~ estimates include:

a) The quantity and expiration dates of ~~PEPs~~ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE inventory in the distribution channel;

b) Assumptions regarding market share growth after an eventual re-launch of our ~~PEPs~~ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE; and

c) Other factors.

In future periods, management will monitor and review the assumptions and estimates and will prospectively record changes to provisions reflected in the current fiscal year.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the product is delivered to our customers, provided we have not retained any significant risks of ownership or future obligations with respect to the product delivered. Provisions for sales discounts and estimates for chargebacks, managed care and Medicaid rebates, product returns and DSA fees are established as a reduction of product sales revenues at the time such revenues are recognized. These revenue reductions are established by us at the time of sale, based on historical experience adjusted to reflect known changes in the factors that impact such reserves. In certain circumstances, product returns are allowed under our policy and provisions are maintained accordingly. These revenue reductions are generally reflected as an addition to accrued liabilities. Amounts received from customers as prepayments for products to be delivered in the future are reported as deferred revenue.

The following table summarizes the activity in the accounts related to revenue reductions:

Product returns

We do not provide any form of price protection to our wholesale customers and we generally permit product returns only if the product is returned in the six months prior to and twelve months following its expiration date. Under our policy, credit for returns is issued to the original purchaser at current wholesale acquisition cost less 10%.

We estimate the proportion of recorded revenue that will result in a return by considering relevant factors, including:

• past product returns activity; • the duration of time taken for products to be returned; • the estimated level of inventory in the distribution channel; • product recalls and discontinuances; • the shelf life of products; • the launch of new drugs or new formulations; and • the loss of patent protection or new competition.

• the duration of time taken for products to be returned;

• the estimated level of inventory in the distribution channel;

• product recalls and discontinuances;

• the shelf life of products;

• the launch of new drugs or new formulations; and

• The loss of patent protection or new competition.

Our estimate of the level of inventory in the distribution channel is based on inventory data provided by wholesalers, third-party prescription data and, for some product return provisions, estimated retail pharmacy information.

Returns for new products are more difficult to estimate than for established products. For shipments made to support the commercial launch of a new product under standard terms, our estimate of sales return accruals are primarily based on the historical sales returns experience of similar products. Once sufficient historical data on actual returns of the product are available, the returns provision is based on this data and any other relevant factors as noted above.

The accrual estimation process for product returns involves in each case a number of interrelating assumptions, which vary for each combination of product and customer. Accordingly, it would not be meaningful to quantify the sensitivity to change for any individual assumption or uncertainty. However, we do not believe that the effect of uncertainties, as a whole, significantly impacts our financial condition or results of operations.

The accrued liabilities include reserves of $2223.34 million as atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, ($13.4 million as at of September 30, 2010) for estimated product returns, excluding the additional provision related to the unapproved PEPs event. The increase is due to the integration of legacy Eurand products ($75.47 million) ~~and additional reserve for URSO product ($2~~.~~4 million).~~

As atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, the product returns reserve related to the unapproved PEPs event amounted to $5.3.2 million which represents primarily management’s current estimate of the balance of ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE inventory in the distribution channel. Due to the subjectivity of this estimate, we prepared various sensitivity analyses to ensure our final estimate is within a reasonable range. A change in assumptions that resulted in a 10% change in the quantity of ULTRASE MT and VIOKASE inventory in the distribution channel would have resulted in a change in the return reserve of approximately $0.53 million.

Rebates, chargebacks and other sales deduction

In the U.S., we establish and maintain reserves for amounts payable to managed care organizations, state Medicaid and other government programs for the reimbursement of portions of the retail price of prescriptions filled that are covered by these programs. We also establish and maintain reserves for amounts payable to wholesale distributors for the difference between their regular sale price and the contract price for the products sold to our contract customers.

The amounts are recognized as revenue reductions at the time of sale based on our best estimate of the product’s utilization by these managed care and state Medicaid patients and sales to our contract customers, using historical experience, the timing of payments, the level of reimbursement claims, changes in prices (both normal selling prices and statutory or negotiated prices), changes in prescription demand patterns, and the levels of inventory in the distribution channel.

Amounts payable to managed care organizations and state Medicaid programs are based on statutory or negotiated discounts to the selling price. Medicaid rebates generally increase as a percentage of the selling price over the life of the product. As it can take up to six months for information to reach the Company on actual usage of the Company’s products in managed care and Medicaid programs and on the total discounts to be reimbursed, the Company maintains reserves for amounts payable under these programs relating to sold products. We estimate the level of inventory in the distribution channels based on inventory data provided by wholesalers and third-party prescription data.

Revisions or clarification of guidelines related to state Medicaid and other government program reimbursement practices which are meant to apply to prior periods, or retrospectively, can result in changes to management’s estimates of the rebates reported in prior periods. However, since the prices of the Company’s products are fixed at the time of sale and the quantum of rebates is therefore reasonably determinable at the outset of each transaction; these factors would not impact the recording of revenues in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Page 5758

The accrual estimation process for managed care organizations, state Medicaid and other government programs rebates involves in each case a number of interrelating assumptions, which vary for each combination of products and programs. Accordingly, it would not be meaningful to quantify the sensitivity to change for any individual assumption or uncertainty. However, we do not believe that the effect of uncertainties, as a whole, significantly impacts the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Accrued liabilities include reserves of $1421.30 million and $1312.89 million as atof ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, ($6.1 million and $8.1 million as atof September 30, 2010) for estimated contract rebates and chargebacks. The increase is mainly due to the integration of legacy Eurand products ($1014.74 million) and additional reserves related to the Affordable Care Act ($2.28 million) ~~and TRICARE ($1~~.~~6 million).~~

If the levels of chargebacks, fees pursuant to DSAs, managed care, Medicaid and other government rebates, product returns and discounts fluctuate significantly and/or if our estimates do not adequately reserve for these reductions of net product revenues, our reported revenue could be negatively affected.

Intangible assets and goodwill

Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized over their estimated useful lives according to the straight-line method over periods varying from 6 months to 20 years. The straight-line method of amortization is used because it reflects, in the opinion of management, the pattern in which the intangible assets with a finite life are used. In determining the useful life of intangible assets, we consider many factors including the intention of management to support the asset on a long-term basis by maintaining the level of expenditure necessary to support the asset, the use of the asset, the existence and expiration date of a patent, the existence of a generic version of, or competitor to, the product and any legal or regulatory provisions that could limit the use of the asset.

The following table summarizes the changes to the carrying value of the intangible assets and goodwill from September 30, 2010, to ~~March~~June 3130, 2011:

	Intangible
	assets			Goodwill
	$	$		$	$
Balance as at September 30, 2010		348.0			73.5

Foreign exchange translation adjustments		8.8			2.6
Balance as of June 30, 2011		716.7			182.6

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses are charged to operations in the period they are incurred. The costs of intangibles that are purchased from others for a particular research and development project that have no alternative future use are expensed at the time of acquisition.

Income taxes

Income taxes are calculated using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized to account for the estimated taxes that will result from the recovery or settlement of assets and liabilities recorded at their financial statement carrying amounts. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured based on enacted tax rates and laws at the date of the financial statements for the fiscal years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided for the portion of deferred tax assets that is more likely than not to remain unrealized. Adjustments to the deferred income tax asset and liability balances are recognized in net income as they occur.

We conduct business in various countries throughout the world and are subject to tax in numerous jurisdictions. As a result of our business activities, we file a significant number of tax returns that are subject to examination by various federal, state, and local tax authorities. Tax examinations are often complex as tax authorities may disagree with the treatment of items reported by us and this may require several years to resolve.

Changes in accounting standards

See Note 3 to our Condensed ~~Interim~~ Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part 1 for a ~~description~~ description of recently issued accounting standards, including our expected adoption dates and ~~estimated~~ estimated effects, if any, on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Subsequent Events

Agreements with Mpex Pharmaceuticals Inc. for the acquisition and development of Aeroquin™

On April 11, 2011, Aptalis Holdings Inc. (“Aptalis Holdings”), an indirect parent company of Aptalis Holdings Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a series of agreements with Mpex Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Mpex”) for the acquisition and development of Aeroquin™ (the “Aeroquin Transaction”), a proprietary aerosol formulation of levofloxacin, which is currently in Phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of pulmonary infections in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Under these agreements, Aptalis Holdings has an option to not acquire all of Mpex’s assets related to Aeroquin™ in a merger, with continued development of Aeroquin™ by Mpex under the terms of a Development Agreement between the parties. Prior to the merger Mpex will transfer all of its assets that are not related to Aeroquin™ to a newly formed company that will be owned primarily by current Mpex stockholders. As a result of the Aeroquin Transaction, the Company made an initial non-contingent payment of $12.0 million on April 21, 2011. Additional remaining time-based, non-contingent payments in relation with the Aeroquin Transaction amounting to $50.5 million will be paid in a number of additional installments, of which the final installment is due on November 1, 2013.

Under the terms of the Option Agreement dated April 11, 2011 among Aptalis Holdings, Mpex, and Axcan Lone Star Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Aptalis Holdings and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Aptalis Holdings has an option to terminate the Merger Agreement described below. This option may be exercised during a certain period of time, which period in no event will end later than August 1, 2011.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 11, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”) among Aptalis Holdings, Merger Sub, Mpex and certain stockholders of Mpex who will serve as representatives of the Mpex security holders under the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Mpex, with Mpex surviving (the “Surviving Company”) as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Aptalis Holdings and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate merger consideration that the Mpex security holders will receive, subject to the consummation of the Merger, consists of (i) the non-contingent payments above, (ii) contingent payments of up to $195 million if certain regulatory and commercial milestones are met related to Aeroquin™, and (iii) earn-out payments based on net sales of Aeroquin™. Indemnity obligations of the Mpex security holders will be satisfied by set-off against a portion of the foregoing merger consideration payments.

Unless terminated pursuant to the Option Agreement described above, the Merger is expected to close during the third quarter of 2011. The further development of Aeroquin™ will be conducted pursuant to the terms of the Development Agreement dated April 11, 2011 among Aptalis Holdings, Merger Sub, and Mpex. Upon completion of the divestiture of assets and liabilities unrelated to Aeroquin™ (the “Divestiture”) to a newly formed company (“Spinco”), Spinco will assume all of Mpex’s obligations under the Development Agreement. Under the Development Agreement, Mpex (and after the Divestiture, Spinco) will be paid for its actual development costs of Aeroquin™ and will have primary responsibility for conducting day-to-day development activities. Aptalis Holdings and Merger Sub will have input regarding development strategy. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, on April 12, 2011 Mpex was paid $9.2 million for development expenses incurred by Mpex since November 15, 2010 and $9.4 million for estimated development costs to be incurred during the first three months of the Development Agreement. All payments under the Development Agreement, Option Agreement and Merger Agreement to Mpex or Mpex security holders, as applicable, will be made by or on behalf of Merger Sub (or after the consummation of the Merger, the Surviving Company).

Equity investment in Aptalis Holdings

Simultaneous with the execution of the Mpex agreements, Aptalis Holdings received the proceeds of a $55.0 million equity investment from funds managed by Investor Growth Capital Limited. Axcan Holdings will contribute the proceeds of the equity investment to its subsidiaries to fund a portion of the Mpex transactions and a partial repayment on the Company’s $133.2 million note receivable from its parent company.

Risk management measures undertaken to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations

On April 4, 2011, the Company entered into two separate pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps. The first swap has a notional amount of $331.0 million amortizing to $84.0 million by its maturity in December 2015. The first swap has a notional amount of $219.0 million and matures in December 2016. The interest rate swaps will effectively fix the Company’s interest payments on the hedged debt at 2.386% for the first swap and 3.18% (including 150 bps LIBOR floor) for the second swap, respectively, plus the appropriate margin on each debt interest period. These swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting us, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, which is incorporated herein by reference. As of June ~~March 31~~30, 2011, our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since September 30, 2010.

Item 4T 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of ~~March~~June 3130, 2011, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon ~~this~~ this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

In the ordinary course of business, we routinely enhance our information systems by either upgrading our current systems or implementing new systems. During the period covered by the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, no change occurred in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

As previously disclosed, in October 2008, Eurand N.V. (“Eurand”) and Cephalon, Inc. (“Cephalon) received Paragraph IV certification letters relating to ANDAs submitted to the FDA by Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Mylan”) and Barr Laboratories, Inc. (“Barr”), each requesting approval to market and sell a generic version of the 15 mg and 30 mg strengths of AMRIX. In November 2008, Eurand received a similar certification letter from Impax Laboratories, Inc. (“Impax”). In May 2009, Eurand received a similar certification letter from Anchen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Anchen”).

Mylan, Impax, and Anchen alleged that U.S. Patent Number 7,387,793 (the “‘793 Patent”), entitled “Modified Release Dosage Forms of Skeletal Muscle Relaxants,” issued to Eurand, will not be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of the product described in the applicable ANDA and reserved the right to challenge the validity and/or enforceability of the ‘793 Patent. Barr alleged that the ‘793 Patent is invalid, unenforceable and/or will not be infringed by its manufacture, use or sale of the product described in its ANDA.

In late November 2008, Eurand filed a lawsuit with Cephalon, in the U.S. District Court in Delaware against Mylan (and its parent) and Barr (and its parent) for infringement of the ‘793 Patent. In January 2009, Eurand filed a lawsuit with Cephalon in the U.S. District Court in Delaware against Impax for infringement of the ‘793 Patent. In July 2009, Eurand filed a lawsuit with Cephalon in the U.S. District Court in Delaware against Anchen (and its parent) for infringement of the ‘793 Patent. Subsequently, in response to additional Paragraph IV certification letters regarding U.S. Patent Number 7,544,372, (the “‘372 Patent”) entitled “Modified Release Dosage Forms of Skeletal Muscle Relaxants” Eurand and Cephalon also filed lawsuits against Mylan, Barr, and Anchen for the infringement of the ‘372 Patent. All cases were consolidated in one action in the U.S. District Court in Delaware, and were tried in a bench trial in September-October, 2010.

The district court ruled that Eurand’s patents were infringed but invalid, and Mylan launched its generic product “at risk” in May. Cephalon has appealed the district court’s invalidity ruling to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Stating that Cephalon’s “success on appeal is just as likely as not,” the district court judge later enjoined Mylan from selling its product during the pendency of the appeal and to recall its previously sold product from the marketplace. Recently, the appellate court stayed the injunction requiring Mylan to recall its previously sold product, but maintained the injunction against further sales.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2010.

Item 5. Other Information

Information regarding the restructuring initiatives we have undertaken as a result of our acquisition of Eurand under Note 5 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is incorporated by reference herein.
