This excerpt taken from the OSUR 10-Q filed May 7, 2009. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
On April 22, 2008, a complaint was filed against us in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey by Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc., Inverness Medical Switzerland GmbH and Church & Dwight Co., Inc., alleging that we infringed U.S. Patent No. 6,485,982. The complaint specifically refers to our OraQuick ADVANCE® Rapid HIV-1/2 Antibody Test. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, damages and an award of attorneys fees. We have filed our Answer responding to the allegations in the Complaint and asserting various defenses and counterclaims. On October 10, 2008, the plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment of infringement in this case, pursuant to a schedule previously established by the Court. On May 1, 2009, the Court issued an order denying the plaintiffs motion without prejudice, and granting the plaintiffs leave to reinstate the motion following completion of the Courts Markman hearing. The Markman process is the part of this patent infringement lawsuit where the Court determines the construction of various claim terms in the patent being asserted. A Markham hearing in this case has been scheduled for August 12, 2009. We continue to believe that none of our products, including the OraQuick ADVANCE® HIV test, infringes the patent asserted in this lawsuit or any other partys intellectual property rights. We also believe that the patent asserted in this matter is invalid or unenforceable, and we intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously. We are unable at this time to determine the impact, if any, that this lawsuit may have on our business, prospects or results of operations.

On July 23, 2004, we filed a lawsuit against Schering-Plough Healthcare Products, Inc. for infringement of several of our patents relating to technology for the cryosurgical removal (i.e., freezing) of warts and other benign skin lesions. The suit was commenced in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and alleges that Schering-Ploughs manufacture and sale of its Dr. Scholls® Freeze Away cryosurgical wart removal product in the United States over-the-counter market infringes the following United States patents: Nos. 5,738,682; 6,092,527 and 4,865,028. We are requesting permanent injunctive relief and the payment of damages. Schering-Plough has asserted various defenses in this matter, including that its Dr. Scholls® Freeze Away product does not infringe our patents and that one or more of our patents are invalid or unenforceable.
On November 2, 2005, a pretrial conference was held on this matter, at which the Court heard oral argument on motions for summary judgment filed by the parties. We expect the Court to rule on these and other motions and to set a new trial schedule in the near future.
