Unless otherwise indicated, references to sections in this Amendment No. 2 are references to sections of the Offer to Purchase.  The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including Schedule I thereto, is hereby incorporated by reference with respect to Item 11 of this Amendment No. 2, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided herein.  Except as otherwise indicated, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged.  All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 2 without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO or the Offer to Purchase.

ITEM 11.  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
 
Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
 
Section 15 ("Certain Legal Matters") of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
 
The following paragraph is added after the last paragraph in the section entitled "Litigation" in Section 15:
 
"On February 18, 2009, the plaintiffs in the foregoing matters filed amended complaints, motions to expedite discovery and motions to consolidate. Both amended complaints added a claim that the Schedule 14D-9 filed by PharmaNet with the SEC on February 12, 2009 failed to provide PharmaNet's shareholders with material information and/or provided them with materially misleading information.  In addition, Kancler's amended complaint added a claim for aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty against Parent and Purchaser."
