** Determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and based on the number of outstanding shares of common stock, no par value (“Common Stock”) of DepoMed, Inc. (“DepoMed”) on August 5, 2008 (as reported in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of DepoMed for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2008).  The information set forth in line items 7, 9, 11 and 13 includes 2,465,878 shares of Common Stock acquired by Biovail Laboratories International SRL (“Biovail Laboratories”) pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated May 28, 2002, 1,626,154 shares of Common Stock acquired by Biovail Laboratories pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated April 21, 2003, 150,000 shares of Common Stock acquired by Biovail Laboratories on May 2, 2006 pursuant to the partial exercise of the Warrant (as such term is defined in Amendment No. 1) and 160,476 shares of Common Stock acquired by Biovail Laboratories on April 11, 2008 pursuant to the cashless exercise of the remainder of the Warrant, less 1,195,636 shares of Common Stock sold by Biovail Laboratories between August 12, 2008 and August 27, 2008 and 841,885 shares of Common Stock sold by Biovail Laboratories between August 28, 2008 and September 12, 2008.  Biovail Laboratories is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Biovail Corporation.

 

This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment No. 4”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 25, 2002, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed on May 2, 2003, Amendment No. 2 filed on April 11, 2008 and Amendment No. 3 filed on August 28, 2008 (as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”), by Biovail Laboratories with respect to Common Stock of DepoMed.  Unless otherwise indicated herein, all items in the Schedule 13D not amended hereby remain in full force and effect.  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings heretofore ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

 

As described in Item 3 to Amendment No. 1 to this Schedule 13D, Biovail Laboratories and certain other parties have severally, but not jointly, covenanted with DepoMed to vote all shares of voting stock of DepoMed owned or controlled by each such party in favor of two persons to be nominated by certain Purchasers to serve as members of the board of directors of DepoMed, provided certain conditions are met (the “Voting Commitments”).  As of the date hereof, sufficient information is not publicly available in order to determine the number of shares of Common Stock of DepoMed beneficially owned collectively by Biovail Laboratories and all such other parties which are subject to a Voting Commitment.  As a result of the Voting Commitments, Biovail Laboratories and the other parties subject to Voting Commitments may be deemed to constitute a “group” for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.  Biovail Laboratories expressly disclaims that it is a member of a “group” with respect to such securities.  The filing of this Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that Biovail Laboratories and Biovail Corporation are, for purposes of Sections 13(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise, the beneficial owners of any securities of DepoMed other than the 2,364,987 shares of Common Stock identified above and Biovail Laboratories and/or Biovail Corporation expressly disclaim any beneficial ownership of any securities of DepoMed other than the 2,364,987 shar es of Common Stock identified above.
