Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 13, 2012, Santarus, Inc. (“Santarus”) entered into a second amendment to its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Comerica Bank (“Comerica”), dated July 11, 2008 (the “Second Amendment”).

Among other things, the Second Amendment (1) increases the size of the credit facility under the loan agreement from $25,000,000 to $35,000,000, (2) extends the maturity date of the revolving line of credit from July 11, 2013 to February 13, 2015, (3) reduces the interest rate on the credit facility and (4) reduces and simplifies certain financial covenants related to a minimum liquidity ratio and minimum EBITDA requirements.

Pursuant to the Second Amendment, borrowings under the credit facility bear interest, as selected by Santarus, at either the (1) variable rate of interest, per annum, most recently announced by Comerica as its “prime rate” or (2) the LIBOR rate plus two and one quarter percent (2.25%), each as computed in the Second Amended and Restated LIBOR Addendum to the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Second Amended and Restated LIBOR Addendum”).

In conjunction with the execution of the Second Amendment a one time commitment fee of $175,000 was paid by Santarus. However, pursuant to the Second Amendment, there is no longer an unused commitment fee on the credit facility and Santarus is no longer required to maintain a $4,000,000 cash balance with Comerica. Santarus has drawn $10,000,000 on the credit facility to date.

The Second Amendment, and the associated Second Amended and Restated LIBOR Addendum, are being filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Second Amendment, and the associated Second Amended and Restated LIBOR Addendum, is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibits.
