from Chirex's earnings report, any guesses as to which products are involved?:

"Sepracor Agreements

ChiRex announced today agreements with Sepracor Inc. to produce active ingredients for three Sepracor products at
full-scale in the Annan 3 production building in Annan, Scotland. Technology transfer and scale-up has commenced
on the first two products and the third product will commence during the fourth quarter of 1999. ChiRex expects to
produce validation quantities of all three products during 2000, and expects to produce commercial quantities in 2001.
The Sepracor agreements are significant because they represent the first production volumes in management's
previously-announced strategy to utilize the Annan 3 production building. The Annan 3 production building was
opened by Glaxo in 1989 at a cost of approximately $50 million and was a strategic manufacturing location in the
Ranitidine (Zantac) supply chain. ChiRex acquired the Annan site and the underutilized Annan 3 capability from
GlaxoWellcome in 1997."
