Item 8.01    Other Events.
     On July 3, 2008 Bentley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the final per-share purchase price the Company’s stockholders will receive in exchange for their Company common stock if the merger with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”) is approved by the Company’s stockholders and the other closing conditions are satisfied or waived in accordance with the Merger Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2008, by and among the Company, Teva and Beryllium Merger Corporation. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The decrease in the final purchase price to approximately $14.82 per share reflects the purchase price adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement, as follows: (i) an aggregate reduction, in the amount of $252,168 (approximately $0.01 per share) to compensate Teva for tax liabilities that Bentley incurred from the distribution of the common stock of CPEX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“CPEX”) to the Company’s stockholders in the spin-off on June 30, 2008, as calculated based upon specified thresholds set forth in the Merger Agreement, and (ii) a reduction of the purchase price, to account for the equitable adjustment to the exercise price and number of Company options and restricted stock units that was made in connection with the spin-off of CPEX.
