INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

Allergan’s offer for the LYONs is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated November 18, 2002 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal,” which, with respect to the LYONs, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together with the Offer to Purchase, constitute the “Offer”), copies of which are filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively. The Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on December, 16, 2002, unless extended or earlier terminated. The Schedule TO, as amended, is intended to satisfy the reporting requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

     The section of the Offer to Purchase entitled “Documents Incorporated by Reference” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

     
      In the first paragraph of that section, the list of documents incorporated by reference into the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended and supplemented to include the Allergan’s Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on November 18, 2002.
     
       The first sentence of the second paragraph of that section is amended and supplemented in its entirety as follows:
          
  “Allergan will file an amendment to the Schedule TO to incorporate by reference into the Offer to Purchase all documents filed by Allergan pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date hereof and prior to the Expiration Time.”

     The section of the Offer to Purchase entitled “Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

          
       “Statements made in this Offer to Purchase and the information incorporated by reference into this Offer to Purchase that are not historical factual statements are “forward-looking statements.” The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of Allergan and its officers and can be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “should” and other comparable terms or the negative thereof. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking oral and written public statements concerning our expected future operations and other developments. You are cautioned that, while forward-looking statements reflect our good faith belief and best judgment based upon current information, they are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations, and we disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Any forward-looking statements, whether made in this Offer to Purchase or elsewhere, should be considered in context with the risk factors discussed or incorporated by reference in this Offer to Purchase and the various disclosures made by us about our businesses in our various public reports incorporated herein by reference.”
