This Amendment No. 3 (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 and May 18, 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 (the “Act”).
 
Items 4 and 7 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
 
ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

As previously reported, the Reporting Persons verbally agreed to vote their Shares in support of a proxy in which they were nominated as directors of the Company.

On May 20, 2009, the Company held its 2009 annual meeting of shareholders and each of the seven directors (including each of the five Reporting Persons) that were nominated by the Reporting Persons were elected as directors of the Company.    
 
On May 29, 2009, the Company filed a motion in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (the “Court”) against Ted Karkus, John Edmunds Ligums, Sr., Mark Burnett, John DeShazo, Louis Gleckel, MD and Mark Leventhal, to prevent the Reporting Persons from being sat as new members of the Board of Directors of the Company. On May 29, 2009, the Court issued a standstill order, requiring the Company to keep the status quo in place, pending a further ruling of the court. On June 1, 2009, TVS Associates, Inc., the inspector of election for the annual meeting determined that the Reporting Persons' seven director nominees received a larger number of votes than the Company's incumbent directors.

On June 12, 2009, the Court issued a Decision and Order, finding no merit to the Company’s claims to enjoin the new directors from being seated and directed that the standstill be lifted.  A copy of the Order and the Memorandum setting forth the explanation for the Court’s decision is attached as an exhibit hereto.  On June 12th, the Reporting Persons took office as directors of the Company.

As the Reporting Persons have achieved their stated objective and as there are no further agreements among them with respect to specific actions, they believe that they no longer constitute a group under the Act and are therefore no longer subject to Scheduling 13D reporting requirements.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

The following exhibits are filed with this Amendment.

Exhibit  99.1. Order and Memorandum dated June 12, 2009
