The Company estimates that it will record, in accordance with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (SFAS No. 146), total charges of approximately $ 22.0 to $ 27.0 million in connection with the consolidation of its manufacturing and packaging operations, consisting of:

• asset relocation and related costs of approximately $ 5.0 to $ 6.0 million, • severance, relocation and other employee related costs of approximately $ 9.0 to $ 11.0 million, and • facility consolidation and other contractual costs of approximately $ 8.0 to $ 10.0 million.

The Company estimates that all of the above charges will be incurred as future cash expenditures. In addition, the Company expects to spend $4.0 to $5.0 million on leasehold improvements to accommodate equipment movement which will be capitalized during fiscal year 2008. Also, the Company will record a non-cash expense related to the write down of certain assets in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year 2007 as a result of certain events leading up to the OTC manufacturing interruption referenced herein. This non-cash write-down expense will be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company believes that the alignment of capacity and cost structure with the Company’s expected product mix and revenue stream is in the best interests of its constituents. These changes to the Company’s OTC business are intended to enable the Company to emerge as a quality, highly competitive OTC supplier.

A copy of the Company’s press release, dated June 7, 2007, announcing the consolidation plan is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
