On August 9, 2012, ABC, a prescription drug wholesaler, disclosed that it had received subpoenas from the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey and the Drug Enforcement Agency ("DEA") involving the Company's processes for handling controlled substances.  The subpoenas are connected to a grand jury proceeding seeking documents about ABC's program for controlling and monitoring the diversion of controlled substances into illegitimate channels.  Furthermore, in June 2012, the West Virginia Attorney General filed a lawsuit against the Company alleging that ABC failed to provide effective controls and procedures to guard against the diversion of controlled substances for illegal purposes in West Virginia.
