Item 2.01   Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
     Effective at 11:59 p.m. on June 30, 2008, Bentley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the spin-off of CPEX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“CPEX”), its wholly owned subsidiary containing all of the assets and liabilities of the Company’s drug delivery business. The Company effected the spin-off of CPEX by distributing a pro-rata dividend, to its stockholders, of one share of CPEX common stock for every ten shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding at the close of business on June 20, 2008, or approximately 2.3 million shares of CPEX common stock in the aggregate. Fractional shares of CPEX common stock were not included in the distribution. Instead, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company will aggregate fractional shares into whole shares, sell the whole shares in the open market and distribute the aggregate net cash proceeds of the sales pro rata to each holder who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share in the distribution. The distribution of CPEX common stock is taxable under U.S. federal income tax regulations to stockholders of the Company.
     The unaudited pro forma financial statements of the Company and related notes thereto, derived from the historical financial statements of the Company and adjusted to give effect to the distribution of CPEX common stock to the Company’s stockholders, are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
     On July 1, 2008 the Company issued a press release announcing that at 11:59 p.m. on June 30, 2008 the Company completed the distribution to its stockholders of all of the shares of CPEX common stock. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9.01   Financial Statements and Exhibits.
