Oooh. So close. That is the rule for other compound adjectives (if it comes at the end of a sentence, no need for hyphen); however, the "ly" rule is true no matter where the compound appears in the sentence.
Really, people; how much is it to ask that you read the Chicago Manual of Stlye chapters on punctuation from cover to cover and memorize them?
