(d) Maxipime and Azactam asset impairment
 
The Maxipime and Azactam asset impairment charge of $52.2 million was related to the launch of a generic formulation of Maxipime in June 2007 and the anticipated approval of a generic form of Azactam. As a direct result, we revised the projected future cumulative undiscounted cash flows. The revised projected cumulative undiscounted cash flows were lower than the intangible assets’ carrying value thus indicating the intangible assets were not recoverable. Consequently, the impairment charge was calculated as the excess of the carrying value over the discounted net present value. The remaining net intangible assets’ carrying value was amortized, on a straight-line basis, through December 31, 2007.
