Third party net revenues from North America were $2.86 billion for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $2.36 billion for the prior year, representing an increase of $496.1 million, or 21.0%.  The increase in third party revenues was principally due to sales of new products and to a lesser extent, incremental revenue from the acquisition of Bioniche Pharma in September 2010, which together totaled approximately $427.9 million in the current year. New product revenue in 2011 was generated through approximately 50 new products in North America during 2011. The effect of foreign currency translation was insignificant within North America.
