About Emisphere Technologies, Inc.
Emisphere Technologies, Inc. is a specialty pharmaceutical company that has been transformed from a delivery systems development company into a broader commercial-stage entity. Assuming the Company is successful in securing necessary funding, of which there can be no assurance, it plans to commence its launch efforts for its first commercial product, oral Eligen® B12 Rx, during the remainder of 2014. Oral Eligen® B12 Rx meets significant unmet patient and medical needs by combining B12 with our proprietary delivery system technology. All key oral Eligen® B12 Rx launch initiatives are in progress and on schedule introduce the Eligen® B12 in the United States during the first quarter 2015. Additionally, the Company is currently engaged in multiple late-stage ex-US oral Eligen® B12 Rx licensing discussions. By building on the oral Eligen® B12 Rx product, the Company intends to establish a sound product portfolio platform on which to expand its B12 therapeutic franchise as well as expand internal new product development with new therapeutic agents. The Company will also continue to develop its existing drug delivery carrier partnerships and expand its carrier business by seeking out and engaging in new global licensing opportunities. The Company's strategy is to reemphasize the commercialization of oral Eligen® B12 Rx, build new high-value partnerships, evaluate new commercial opportunities, and promote new uses for the Eligen® Technology.
