Safe Harbor Statement
We will make various remarks relating to our current plans, potential future events, and what we believe to be the prospects for the
Company in this presentation that constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the Safe Harbor provisions under the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Today our forward-looking statements will cover, among other things, the Company’s expected
financial performance, results and strategic priorities; marketing strategies for XIAFLEX for Dupuytren’s contracture; the potential for
XIAFLEX to change the treatment paradigm and become the standard of care for the treatment of Dupuytren’s; the size of the Dupuytren’s
market; the effect of new procedure codes on the reimbursement process and XIAFLEX growth; the effect of the identified leading
indicators on the success of the XIAFLEX launch and future net revenues; additional Phase IV clinical trials for XIAFLEX; peer to peer
dialogue programs for U.S. physicians and our U.S. patient education campaign; Pfizer’s ability to commercialize XIAPEX for Dupuytren’s
contracture in EU and Eurasian markets; Asahi Kasei Pharma's ability to develop, register for approval and commercialize XIAFLEX for
Dupuytren's contracture and Peyronie's disease in Japan; the potential for XIAFLEX to be used in multiple indications, including for the
treatment of Peyronie’s, cellulite, frozen shoulder syndrome and canine and human lipomas, the effectiveness of XIAFLEX for any such
indications, and the success of efforts to advance any such new indications; the design and methodology, and the timing to report results,
of the phase III trials for XIAFLEX for the treatment of Peyronie’s; the growth of the testosterone replacement therapy market, and the
growth opportunity for Testim; business development efforts and opportunities to build out the Company’s pipeline; our ability to maximize
the value of XIAFLEX and Testim, deliver on our current pipeline, build out our pipeline and create shareholder value.  Actual results may
differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements due to various factors, including general financial, economic,
regulatory and political conditions affecting the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and those discussed in Auxilium's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and  Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30,
2011 under the heading “Risk Factors,” which are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and may be accessed
electronically by means of the SEC’s home page on the Internet at http://www.sec.gov or by means of the Company’s home page on the
Internet at http://www.auxilium.com under the heading “For Investors - SEC Filings.”  There may be additional risks that the Company does
not presently know or that the Company currently believes are immaterial which could also cause actual results to differ from those
contained in the forward-looking statements.  Given these risks and uncertainties, any or all of these forward-looking statements may prove
to be incorrect.  Therefore, you should not rely on any such factors or forward-looking statements.  In addition, forward-looking statements
provide the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this presentation.  The Company
anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s assessments to change.  However, while the Company
may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do
so.  These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent

Excessive collagen causing reduced elasticity in fascia of hand with nodules or pits
as an early, active presentation
Rope-like cords develop in the finger and result in contractures affecting quality of
life and daily activities
Fasciectomy is an invasive treatment with high potential for complications
Results can be unpredictable and may require long recovery time of 6-8 weeks, with
intensive physical therapy
Recurrence of the disease can require additional surgeries
Surgical complication rate increases dramatically for retreated joints, primarily due to
presence of scar tissue

Peyronie’s Phase IIb Efficacy Results (2009)
Penile curvature and domains of the patient reported outcomes (PRO) survey
were measured
Three dosing cycles –
up to six injections
Penile modeling was compared to no modeling
In all subjects, penile curvature and Peyronie’s disease bother, a PRO domain,
were statistically significantly improved vs. placebo
Other domains of the PRO trended toward significance
Curvature improvement was greatest during the dosing phase
Improvement in curvature continued through 36 weeks
In the modeling arm, curvature and Peyronie’s disease bother were
statistically significantly improved vs. placebo
Mean 35% improvement in curvature vs. placebo
Mean 41% improvement in Peyronie’s disease bother vs. placebo
In the non-modeling arm, curvature and Peyronie’s disease bother were not
statistically significantly improved vs. placebo
Greater
than
expected
placebo
effect
occurred
in
the
no
modeling
arm
5 of 16 placebo patients with <12 months since diagnosis had an apparent spontaneous
resolution of disease


20
Changes to the Phase IIb Trial Design Should
Increase the Chance of Success in Phase III
4 cycles of therapy in the Phase III trial
All patients receive modeling in the Phase III trial
All patients must have greater than 12 months of disease since
diagnosis to enter the Phase III trial
Active to placebo ratio of 2:1
Mean net improvements in phase IIb penile curvature
and bother domain for modeling arm would have met
statistical significance using phase III co-primary
endpoint requirements


21
Peyronie’s Disease: Pivotal Phase III Update
Active dosing phase complete
Double-blind patients complete 52 week follow-up
phase in March 2012
Top-line results should be available in 2Q12
sBLA filing expected by end of 2012
Potential commercial launch planned in late 2013


22
Edematous Fibrosclerotic Panniculopathy
(EFP) Represents a Compelling Opportunity
There are currently no FDA-approved medical therapies
for EFP, commonly known as cellulite
Current non-surgical options haven’t shown benefit
OTC pills, creams and lotions
Unapproved mixtures of enzymes and fat dissolvers
Various devices, including lasers 
Surgical approaches have shown some benefit, but are invasive
Liposuction removes fat cells
Subscision  surgically disrupts collagen septae and underlying dermal
tissues
We believe XIAFLEX may enable physicians to enzymatically and
specifically lyse the connective septae, in a more targeted fashion than
subscision, possibly resulting in a smoother appearance to the skin surface


23
Frozen Shoulder Syndrome: An Unmet
Medical Need
Current treatment options have limited results
Non-steroidal pain relievers
Oral steroids
Corticosteroid injections
Physical therapy
Manipulation of the shoulder under anesthesia, long-term intensive physical
therapy or arthroscopic surgery can disrupt the frozen capsule 
Currently no FDA approved non-surgical therapies for Frozen Shoulder syndrome 
We believe that XIAFLEX may act by thinning the thickened collagen capsule
allowing improved range of motion of the affected shoulder
