A copy of the notification letter delivered to the Issuer is filed as Exhibit 3 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. On July 18, 2006, Ropes & Gray LLP, as counsel to and on behalf of Costa Brava, sent a letter to Mr. Daniel Glassman, President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer by facsimile.

Roark, Rearden & Hamot Capital Management, LLC 420 Boylston Street Boston, Massachusetts 02116 July 18, 2006 VIA FACSIMILE AND FEDERAL EXPRESS Bradley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. c/o Secretary 383 Route 46 West Fairfield, New Jersey 07004 Re: Notice of Shareholder's Recommendation of Nominees for Consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of Bradley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Notice of Intent to Nominate Persons for Election as Directors of Bradley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Ladies and Gentlemen: Costa Brava Partnership III L.P. ("Costa Brava") hereby submits this notice (this "Notice") pursuant to the requirements set forth in the Form 8-K filed by Bradley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company" or "Bradley") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on June 22, 2006, and the Proxy Statement filed by Bradley with the SEC on April 28, 2004. Pursuant to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 22, 2006, for a notice to be considered timely for the Company's 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (also described as the combined 2005/2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in the Proxy Statement filed by Bradley with the SEC on June 9, 2006) (the "Annual Meeting"), a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company not later than July 24, 2006. As Bradley did not file a proxy statement with the SEC or hold an Annual Meeting of Stockholders during 2005, we have provided the information requested in the Proxy Statement filed by Bradley with the SEC on April 28, 2004 in the section entitled "Procedure for Stockholder Proposals and Nomination of Directors" (the "Notice Requirements"). The Notice Requirements set forth the information required to request that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors consider a nominee for election at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or to nominate a director for election at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Costa Brava's principal address is 420 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02116. Costa Brava is the beneficial owner of 1,640,700 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). Costa Brava disclaims beneficial ownership of 33,000 of such shares that are held through separate accounts that are deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Seth W. Hamot, the President of Costa Brava's general partner Roark, Rearden & Hamot, LLC. Costa Brava holds a physical stock certificate for 950,000 shares of Common Stock. The record holder of the other 657,700 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Costa Brava is a nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). DTC's address is 55 Water Street, 49th Floor, New York, NY 10041-0099. Bradley today faces financial and regulatory challenges that are different than those which existed when the Company was much smaller. These challenges are best addressed by a Board of Directors with the experience necessary to lead in this new environment. Costa Brava hereby requests that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company's Board of Directors consider the persons listed below as nominees for director at the Annual Meeting by the holders of Common Stock. Each of these nominees brings a relevant skill set to the Bradley of today and of the future. In the event that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines not to nominate the persons listed below for election as directors, Costa Brava also represents that it intends to appear in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting to nominate the persons listed below as directors of the Company for election by the holders of Common Stock (each, a "Nominee" and together, the "Nominees"): Douglas E. Linton John S. Ross Seth W. Hamot Pursuant to Article IV of the Company's certificate of incorporation (the "Charter") and Article III, Section 1 of the Company's by-laws (the "By-laws"), in the event that there are at least three hundred twenty five thousand (325,000) shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding, the holders of Class B Common Stock shall vote as a separate class to elect a majority (consisting of the sum of one plus one-half of the total number of directors) of the directors of the Company, and the holders of Common Stock and voting Preferred Stock, if any, shall vote together as a single class to elect the remainder of the directors of the Company. As set forth in the Company's filing on Form 8-K with the SEC on June 22, 2006, the number of directors constituting the full Board of Directors (the "Board") will be set at eight (8) at the time of the Annual Meeting. Costa Brava requests that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consider the three (3) candidates whose information is attached hereto as nominees for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting by the holders of Common Stock, and hereby also provides notice that, in the event that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines not to nominate the persons listed below for election as directors, Costa Brava intends to submit these candidates as nominees for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting by the holders of Common Stock. If, for any reason, more than eight (8) directors are to be elected at the Annual Meeting, Costa Brava intends to nominate additional persons (each, an "Additional Nominee") such that Costa Brava will nominate a slate of persons sufficient to constitute the number of members of the Board that are entitled to be elected to the Board of Directors by the holders of Common Stock pursuant to the Charter and the By-laws of the Company. Additionally, if, for any reason, any Nominee or Additional Nominee is unable to stand for election at the Annual Meeting, Costa Brava, in person or by proxy intends to nominate a person in the place of such Nominee or Additional Nominee (an "Alternate Nominee"). In either event, Costa Brava at the earliest practicable time will give notice to the Company of any Additional Nominee or Alternate Nominee. If the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines not to nominate the Nominees for election as directors, and Costa Brava submits the Nominees for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting, Costa Brava hereby provides notice of its intent to submit a proposal to the Company's stockholders authorizing reimbursement of all expenses associated with Costa Brava's nomination of the Nominees and associated solicitation. Costa Brava is unable to provide an estimate of such expenses at this time, but will do so upon filing a definitive Proxy Statement with the SEC. Pursuant to the Notice Requirements, certain information about each Nominee and Costa Brava is set forth in Annex A. Annex A also includes additional information on each Nominee's qualifications and employment history. In addition, each Nominee has consented to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director of the Company, if elected. The written consent of each Nominee is attached as Annex B. The Annexes and all attachments thereto are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Notice. Accordingly, all matters disclosed in any part of this Notice, including the Annexes and all attachments thereto, should be deemed disclosed for all purposes of this Notice. Costa Brava intends to enter into an indemnification agreement with each Nominee (the "Indemnification Agreement") substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex C. The Indemnification Agreement provides that Costa Brava will indemnify each Nominee from and against any losses incurred by any Nominee arising from such Nominee's role as a Nominee, with certain exceptions. This discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Indemnification Agreement attached hereto as Annex C. Neither the delivery of this Notice in accordance with the Notice Requirements nor any delivery by Costa Brava of additional information to the Company from and after the date hereof shall be deemed to constitute an admission by Costa Brava or any of its affiliates that such delivery is required or as to the legality or enforceability of any other matter, or a waiver by Costa Brava or any of its affiliates of its right to contest or challenge, in any way, the enforceability of any other matter.
