Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other
- ------  -----------------------------------
        Consideration:
        -------------

     The securities of the Company described herein were acquired as a result of
the initial public offering of the Company pursuant to a registration statement
on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, filed with the
Commission on April 8, 1998. Pursuant to the understanding between the Reporting
Entities discussed below in Item 4, the Reporting Entities may be deemed to have
acquired beneficial ownership of each of the other Reporting Entities shares of
Common Stock under Rule 13d-5(b) of the Exchange Act.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction:
- ------  ----------------------

     On September 30, 1994, the Reporting Entities entered into a Voting Trust
Agreement (the "Voting Trust Agreement") pursuant to which the Reporting
Entities granted Martin Sperber, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, the authority to vote all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially
held by the Reporting Entities. On March 1, 2000 the Voting Trust Agreement
expired pursuant to its terms and, consequently, as of the date of this filing,
the Reporting Entities possess full power and authority to vote the shares of
Common Stock beneficially held by each of them as disclosed herein.

     On January 25, 2000, the Company issued a press release announcing the
retention of certain financial advisors to explore strategic alternatives for
the Company, including the possible sale


                              Page 18 of 27 Pages

<PAGE>


of the Company. The Company noted that it had been exploring opportunities to
enhance the value of its businesses over the previous several months.

     The Reporting Entities note the Company's efforts as reflected in the
January 25, 2000 press release and currently have no plans or proposals which
would result in frustrating or impeding the Company's actions in connection with
the exploration of strategic alternatives. The Reporting Entities fully endorse
the pursuit of a strategic transaction that will lead to the sale of the
Company.

     Notwithstanding the above, in order to reserve their rights under Section
14 of the Exchange Act (and the rules promulgated thereunder), on March 13,
2000, pursuant to requirements under the Company's By-laws, the Reporting
Entities sent a Notice of Nominations of Persons for Election to the Board of
Directors of Schein Pharmaceutical, Inc. and Amendments to the By-Laws of Schein
Pharmaceutical, Inc. (the "Notice") to the Secretary of Company proposing that
the Company's Notice of Annual Meeting for the Company's 2000 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders include the nominations of Marvin H. Schein and Irving Shafran as
directors of the Company with terms expiring in 2003, the presentation of
certain amendments to the Company's By-laws and the nominations of Leslie J.
Levine and Robert D. Villency to fill the new directorships that would be
created by such amendments to the By-laws, if adopted.

     In addition, the Notice indicates that the Reporting Entities have entered
into an understanding to vote all the shares


                              Page 19 of 27 Pages

<PAGE>


over which any of them has voting control in favor of all of the proposals and
for the election of all the nominees set forth in the Notice.

     On March 28, 2000 the Reporting Entities sent an Amendment to Notice of
Nominations of Persons for Election to the Board of Directors of Schein
Pharmaceutical, Inc. and Amendments to the By-Laws of Schein Pharmaceutical,
Inc. (the "Amended Notice") to the Secretary of Company to correct the number of
shares of Common Stock over which the Reporting Entities have voting control.

     The descriptions of the Notice and the Amended Notice in this Item 4 are
qualified in their entirety by reference to the Notice and the Amended Notice,
which are attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and Exhibit 3, respectively, and are
incorporated by reference herein.

     Except as set forth above, the Reporting Entities do not have any plans or
proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person
of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the
Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management
of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material


                              Page 20 of 27 Pages

<PAGE>


change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (f) any
other material change in the Company's business or corporate structure; (g)
changes in the Company's charter, By-laws or instruments corresponding thereto
or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by
any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from
a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or
