About Acorda Therapeutics

Forward-Looking Statement
This press release includes forward-looking statements. All
statements, other than statements of historical facts, regarding
management's expectations, beliefs, goals, plans or prospects
should be considered forward-looking. These statements are subject
to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially, including: we may not be able to successfully
market Inbrija or any other products under development; risks
associated with complex, regulated manufacturing processes for
pharmaceuticals, which could affect whether we have sufficient
commercial supply of Inbrija to meet market demand; third party
payers (including governmental agencies) may not reimburse for the
use of Inbrija or our other products at acceptable rates or at all
and may impose restrictive prior authorization requirements that
limit or block prescriptions; competition for Inbrija, Ampyra and
other products we may develop and market in the future, including
increasing competition and accompanying loss of revenues in the
U.S. from generic versions of Ampyra (dalfampridine) following our
loss of patent exclusivity; the ability to realize the benefits
anticipated from acquisitions, among other reasons because acquired
development programs are generally subject to all the risks
inherent in the drug development process and our knowledge of the
risks specifically relevant to acquired programs generally improves
over time; we may need to raise additional funds to finance our
operations and may not be able to do so on acceptable terms; the
risk of unfavorable results from future studies of Inbrija
(levodopa inhalation powder) or from our other research and
development programs, or any other acquired or in-licensed programs
; the occurrence of adverse safety events with our products; the
outcome (by judgment or settlement) and costs of legal,
administrative or regulatory proceedings, investigations or
inspections, including, without limitation, collective,
representative or class action litigation; failure to protect our
intellectual property, to defend against the intellectual property
claims of others or to obtain third party intellectual property
licenses needed for the commercialization of our products; and
failure to comply with regulatory requirements could result in
adverse action by regulatory agencies.
These and other risks are described in greater detail in our
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We may not
actually achieve the goals or plans described in our
forward-looking statements, and investors should not place undue
reliance on these statements. Forward-looking statements made in
this press release are made only as of the date hereof, and we
disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking
statements as a result of developments occurring after the date of
this press release.
