PART III - NARRATIVE
 
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

As previously disclosed, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. ("Valeant" or the "Company") had determined that it was necessary to restate certain of its prior financial statements.  On April 29, 2016, Valeant filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 (the "Form 10-K") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").  The Form 10-K included consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015. The audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 were restated. Valeant also restated certain unaudited quarterly results related to the three months ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended March 31, 2015, the six months ended June 30, 2015, and the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We refer you to the Form 10-K for more information related to the restatement, including, without limitation, the nature of the accounting adjustments giving rise to the restatement.
 
As a result of the concentration of resources on completing our restated financial statements included in the Form 10-K, as well as delays in completing our financial reporting for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we are not able to file, without unreasonable effort or expense, our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 (the "Form 10-Q") within the prescribed time period.  Valeant does not expect that it will be in a position to file the Form 10-Q within the 5-day extension period provided in Rule 12b-25(b).  The Company is working diligently and intends to file the Form 10-Q as promptly as reasonably practicable.
