This 95.5% increase in G&A expense was primarily due to a $7.7 million litigation settlement accrual recorded in the second quarter of 2012 and increased legal fees and financing transaction costs.

For the first six months of 2012, operating expenses totaled $78.0 million, compared to $77.2 million in the first half of 2011. Total R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased $5.8 million or 10.2% compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to the termination of the insulin supply agreement partially offset by increased clinical trial related activities in the first half of 2012. G&A expenses increased by $6.5 million, or 31.7%, to $27.2 million for the first half of 2012 as compared to $20.7 million in the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily due to the $7.7 million litigation settlement accrual recorded in the second quarter of 2012 and increased legal fees and financing transaction costs, partially offset by the decrease in salary related costs as a result of the February 2011 reduction in force.
