This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment”) relates to the Schedule 13D filed by Ted Karkus, Mark Burnett, John DeShazo, Louis Gleckel, MD, and Mark Leventhal (together, the “Reporting Persons”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2009 and amended on April 29, 2009 (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”), relating to shares of common stock, par value $0.0005 per share, of The Quigley Corporation (the “Company”).
 
Neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be deemed an admission by the Reporting Persons that they constitute a “group” as such term is used in Section 13(d)(1)(k) of the rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
Items 4 and 7 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

On April 23, 2009, The Quigley Corporation filed an action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Ted Karkus, John Edmunds Ligums, Sr. (“Ligums”), Mark Burnett, John DeShazo, Louis Gleckel, MD and Mark Leventhal (collectively, the “Defendants”), asserting claims for violations of Sections 13(d), 14(a) and 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On May 15, 2009, Judge Pratter of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania filed an Order denying the Company’s request for a preliminary injunction with respect to the Company’s claim that Ligums was an undisclosed member of the Reporting Persons' Schedule 13D group. The Company had previously voluntarily withdrawn other claims it made concerning the Darius/Innerlight/Gary Quigley transaction and alleged undisclosed plans for the Company as a basis for preliminary injunctive relief.
 
A copy of Judge Pratter’s Order and Memorandum setting forth the explanation for the decision is attached as an exhibit hereto.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

The following exhibits are filed with this Amendment.

Exhibit  99.1.      Order and Memorandum dated May 15, 2009
