AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D (FINAL AMENDMENT)

Reference is hereby made to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer on July 25, 2013 (the "Schedule 13D".) Terms defined in the Schedule 13D are used herein as so defined.

The following paragraphs of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) The information requested by this paragraph is incorporated herein by reference to the cover pages to this Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D.

(c) Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 1, 2017 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and between the Issuer, MAK LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Parent"), MEH Acquisition Co., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"), and for limited purposes, Mallinckrodt plc, an Irish public limited company and the ultimate parent entity of Parent and Purchaser ("Mallinckrodt"), Purchaser was merged with and into the Issuer on December 11, 2017, with the Issuer surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all shares Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger were canceled and converted automatically into the right to receive (i) $1.52 per share in cash, plus (ii) one non-transferable contingent value right per Share (each, a "CVR"), which represents the contractual right under a contingent value rights agreement, by and among Parent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, and for limited purposes, Mallinckrodt, entered into on December 7, 2017, to receive one or more payments in cash currently estimated to be up to $2.58 per share, contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones, in each case, less any required withholding taxes. At the effective time of the Merger, each warrant that was outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, with an exercise price less than $1.52, was cancelled and converted into the right of the holder of such warrant to receive, for each share of Common Stock underlying such warrant, (i) an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of $1.52 over the applicable exercise price for such share, and (ii) one CVR.

The Merger Agreement is Exhibit E to the Schedule 13D, and any description thereof is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

(e) The Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Common Stock on December 11, 2017.

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
