OnOur ~~June 30,~~principal ~~2006~~operating subsidiary, ~~Peter~~Leiner J.Health ~~Shabecoff~~Products ~~resigned~~LLC ~~as a member of~~ (the ~~Board of Directors~~“Company”), ~~and as~~received a ~~member~~list of ~~the~~Inspection ~~Audit~~Observations ~~Committee~~on ~~and~~Form 483 (the ~~Compensation~~“Form ~~Committee~~483”) ~~of Leiner~~from ~~Health~~Food ~~Products~~and ~~Inc.~~Drug ~~(the~~Administration (“~~Company~~FDA”), ~~effective~~inspectors ~~immediately.~~on MrMarch 16, 2007. ~~Shabecoff~~The ~~had~~Form 483 nocontained ~~disagreements~~inspection ~~with~~observations ~~the~~relating ~~Company~~to onproduct ~~any~~quality ~~matters~~and ~~related~~deficiencies in to the Company’s compliance with good manufacturing practices (“GMP”) for ~~operations~~over-the-counter drug products (“OTC Products”) manufactured, ~~policies~~packaged or ~~practices~~tested at its Fort Mill, South Carolina facility.

OnThe ~~June~~Company believes that its OTC Products do not pose any safety issues. 9Nevertheless, ~~2006~~the Company has implemented several steps to address the observations described in the Form 483 and assure the integrity of its quality processes and OTC Products. On March 20, 2007, the Company’s ~~Board~~voluntarily suspended the production and distribution of ~~Directors~~all ~~appointed~~OTC ~~Prescott~~Products Hmanufactured, packaged or tested at its facilities in the United States. ~~Ashe~~The asCompany ais ~~member~~retesting, on a lot-by-lot basis, the retained samples of all unexpired OTC Products previously manufactured, packaged or tested at its US facilities to ensure that its OTC Products meet quality specifications throughout their shelf-life. If any batches do not meet such specifications, the ~~Audit~~Company ~~Committee~~intends to take all necessary action. Finally, ~~effective~~the ~~immediately~~Company is working with Lachman Consultant Services, Inc., a respected GMP consulting firm, to assure that future production of OTC Products will be manufactured and tested in accordance with appropriate GMP and product quality standards.

As we believe these actions demonstrate, the Company is committed to maintaining its core values and to working with the FDA to resolve the issues raised by the observations as quickly as possible. However, the Company is not yet able to estimate how long it will take to resolve such issues. If the observations in the Form 483 cannot be addressed in a timely manner at a reasonable cost, it may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

The Company’s vitamin, mineral and supplements products were not addressed in the Form 483 and are not included in the voluntary suspension described above.
