Date:7/7/2009

BRISTOL, Tenn., July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE: KG) today announced additional information regarding the resubmission plan for the REMOXY(R) New Drug Application (NDA).

The Company continues to anticipate the resubmission could occur mid-year 2010.
