Explanation of Responses:
1. Due to administrative error, the Company is canceling a portion of the nonqualified stock options granted to Mr. Levin in connection with his hire as Chief Financial Officer and replacing the cancelled options with a new grant of incentive stock options under the Endo Pharmaceuticals Holdings Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan. The number of options being cancelled is less than the number of incentive stock options being granted to reflect, among other things, the increased exercise price of the new options. Following this cancellation and regrant, it is intended that Mr. Levin be in the same economic position as he would have been had incentive stock options been granted on his date of hire.
2. Both the original options and the replacement options are generally exercisable 25% on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant.
