Item 5:   Other Events

     Pharmacia & Upjohn has recently filed a new drug application
with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its
Nicotrol(TM) Nicotine Inhalation System.  The Nicotrol(TM) product
is intended as an aid to smoking cessation and is based on
technology originally developed by Advanced Tobacco Products, Inc.,
d/b/a Advanced Therapeutic Products, Inc. (the "Registrant").  The
Registrant sold the technology to Pharmacia-Leo (now Pharmacia &
Upjohn) in 1987 in exchange for product royalties generally
consisting of three percent (3%) of Net Sales (defined generally as
sales to wholesale distributors).  Subject to approval by the FDA,
the Nicotrol(TM) Inhalation System will be marketed in the United
States by McNeil Consumer Products Company of Johnson & Johnson.

     In Europe, Pharmacia & Upjohn has recently received approvals
for the product from regulatory agencies in Italy and Denmark for
over-the-counter sale.  The product will be marketed in Europe
under the Nicorette(TM) brand by Pharmacia & Upjohn and its related
marketing companies.  Pharmacia & Upjohn also expect approvals in
other European countries by the end of 1996.
