About the Combined Company

The combined company will have substantial opportunity for building value going forward, including:

        recently acquired by Mallinckrodt Inc., a subsidiary of Covidien plc,
        as a key asset in their emerging branded pain management franchise.
        The key terms of the deal are $15 million in upfront payments,
        additional development funding of up to $16 million to cover internal
        and external costs associated with Exalgo, an approval milestone of
        $30 million, which could potentially increase up to $40 million, and
        tiered royalties on Exalgo(TM) net sales after approval.
    -   Complimentary product pipelines, spanning from discovery through NDA.
    -   Experienced leadership team with substantial product development
        expertise and many drug approvals.
    -   Validated drug discovery technology as illustrated by the
        CombinatoRx-Novartis oncology collaboration which has the potential
        to generate future product opportunities and milestone payments for
        CombinatoRx.
    -   Multiple clinically-validated product assets including mid-stage
        pipeline programs such as Synavive(TM) and CRx-401, Prednisporin(TM)
        (which is licensed to Fovea), and early stage assets s
