Item 8. Additional Information.

Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and restated by deleting the sentence under the heading “ Legal Proceedings ” on page 50 of the Schedule 14D-9 and replacing it with the following paragraph:

“On September 7, 2016, a complaint captioned Klein v. Medivation, Inc., et al ., Case No. 3:16-cv-05154, was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Medivation and each member of Medivation’s board of directors. The action was brought by David Klein, who claims to be a stockholder of Medivation, on his own behalf, and seeks certification as a class action on behalf of all of Medivation’s stockholders. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the process leading up to the proposed acquisition was inadequate and that this Schedule 14D-9 omits certain material information, which the complaint alleges renders the information disclosed materially misleading. The complaint seeks to enjoin the proposed transaction, or in the event the proposed transaction is consummated, to recover money damages.”

Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and restated by deleting the second and third sentences of the second paragraph under the heading “ Antitrust Compliance ” on page 50 of the Schedule 14D-9 and replacing them with the following sentences:

“On September 7, 2016, each of Parent and Medivation filed its respective Premerger Notification and Report Form with the FTC and the Antitrust Division in connection with the Offer. Accordingly, the 15 calendar day waiting period is set to expire in the ordinary course at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time on September 22, 2016.”

After due inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
