(1) This represents vesting of restricted stock units granted to Mr. Spengler on March 12, 2009. Upon each vesting date, each vested restricted stock unit automatically converts into one (1) share of common stock of Endo Pharmaceuticals Holdings Inc. On December 15, 2009, Mr. Spengler elected to defer receipt of these shares pursuant to the Endo Pharmaceuticals Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.
(2) This number represents (i) 8,970 restricted stock units (including the 2,834 restricted stock units reported in Table II), 3,068 of which are fully vested and (ii) 1,540 shares of common stock, receipt of which has been deferred under the Endo Pharmaceuticals Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. Mr. Spengler's beneficial ownership disclosed in this table excludes all shares held by Mr. Spengler indirectly, including shares underlying stock options.
(3) Upon each vesting date, each vested restricted stock unit automatically converts into one (1) share of common stock of Endo Pharmaceuticals Holdings Inc. unless the director has elected to defer receipt of the vested shares under the Endo Pharmaceuticals Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.

Upon vesting, we consider the underlying RSUs to be expired. The 2,009 shown here is the amount that vested on March 12, 2010. However, on December 15, 2009, Mr. Spengler elected to defer receipt of these shares pursuant to the Endo Pharmaceuticals Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.
(5) These restricted stock units (RSUs) generally vest 50% per year on each of March 12, 2011 and March 12, 2012. Upon vesting, we consider the underlying RSUs to be expired. Pursuant to the Endo Pharmaceuticals Directors Deferred Compensation Plan, on December 15, 2009, Mr. Spengler elected to defer receipt of these RSUs.
(6) These securities were granted to Mr. Spengler in consideration of his services on the Endo Pharmaceutical Holdings Inc. Board of Directors.
