Item 8.01 Other Events.
As reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 28, 2009, the Company has entered into a settlement agreement, subject to court approval, with the direct purchaser plaintiffs in the matter of "In re Hypodermic Products Antitrust Litigation." On May 7, 2009, certain indirect purchaser plaintiffs in that litigation, who are not parties to the settlement, filed a motion with the court seeking to enjoin the consummation of that settlement agreement on the ground that, among other things, the court had not yet ruled on the issue of which plaintiffs have direct purchaser standing. The settlement requires court approval, as we previously noted, and the settlement agreement expressly provides for the court to rule on the issue of direct purchaser standing as a precondition to approval.
