EXPLANATORY NOTE



This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A ("Amendment
No. 1") amends our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 that was filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on June 29, 2011 (the "Original Filing"). We are filing this Amendment No. 1 solely
for the purpose of attaching as Exhibit 10.71 an unredacted copy of the June 23, 2011 Manufacturing & Supply Agreement between
Elite Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) and ThePharmaNetwork, LLC.



As required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Item 15 of Part IV of the Original Filing has been amended to contain currently dated certifications
from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The currently dated certifications are attached hereto as Exhibits
31.1 and 31.2. Because no financial statements of Elite Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are contained in this Amendment No. 1, we are not
including certifications pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 1350.



No other changes, other than described above,
are made to the Original Filing other than to update the cover page of the Original Filing. Unless expressly stated, this Amendment
No. 1 does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing, nor does it modify or update in any way the disclosures
contained in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with our Original Filing and
our other filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.
