IN THE MATTER OF MYLAN INC., AGILA SPECIALTIES GLOBAL PTE. LIMITED, AGILA SPECIAL PRIVATE LIMITED, AND STRIDES ARCOLAB LIMITED CONSENT ORDER, ETC. IN REGARD TO ALLEGED VIOLATION OF SEC. 7 OF THE CLAYTON ACT AND SEC. 5 OF THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ACT Docket No. C-4413; File No. 131 0112 Complaint, September 26, 2013 – Decision, December 12, 2013 This consent order addresses the $1.85 billion acquisition by Mylan Inc. (“Mylan”) of Agila Specialties Global Pte. Limited (“Agila”) from Strides Arcolab, Ltd. The complaint alleges that the acquisition would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act by substantially lessening competition in eleven product markets relating to generic injectable pharmaceutical drugs. Injectable drugs are administered intravenously, usually via a syringe or hollow needle. Generic versions of injectable drugs are usually launched after a branded product’s patents have expired. As the number of generic suppliers increases, prices for these generic drugs generally decrease. The complaint alleges that Mylan and Agila are two of a limited number of current or likely future competitors in several markets for generic injectable pharmaceutical drugs. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the acquisition would eliminate existing competition in the market for the following six generic drugs: (1) amiodarone hydrochloride injection, an anti-arrythmic heart drug used to treat patients with frequently recurring ventricular fibrillation or unstable ventricular tachycardia; (2) etomidate injection, an anesthetic; (3) fluoruracil injection, used to treat cancer; (4) labetalol hydrochloride injection, used to treat hypertension; (5) mesna injection, used to prevent urinary tract damage; and (6) methotrexate sodium, used to treat types of pediatric cancer. The complaint further alleges that the acquisition would reduce future competition by allowing the combined company to forego or delay the launch of generic products in the following four drug markets: (1) acetylcysteine, used to prevent or minimize liver damage caused by acetaminophen overdose; (2) fomepizole, which is used to treat accidental poisoning caused by ethylene glycol or methanol; (3) ganciclovir, an antiviral drug used to treat patients with weakened immune systems to slow the growth of a form of herpes that can lead to blindness; and (4) meropenem, an antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections. The complaint further alleges that the acquisition likely would reduce competition in the future market for generic mycophenolate mofetil injection, which is currently available as a branded drug. Mycophenolate mofetil is used in transplant medicine to reduce the chance of organ transplant rejection. Because Mylan and Agila would likely be among a limited number of suppliers when generic drugs enter the market, the acquisition is likely to reduce the number of generic competitors or otherwise reduce important price competition. The consent VOLUME 156 Complaint order requires Mylan to divest either Mylan or Agila products in the following markets and to the following buyers: (a) fluorouracil and methotrexate sodium preservative-free injections to Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd.; (b) Mylan’s etomidate, ganciclovir, meropenem, and mycophenolate mofetil injections, as well as Agila’s amiodarone hydrochloride and fomepizole injections to JHP Pharmaceuticals, LLC; and (c) Agila’s acetylcysteine and mesna injections to Sagent Pharmaceuticals. The order also requires Mylan to release all of its rights relating to labetalol hydrochloride injection to Gland Pharma Ltd. Finally, the order contains supply and technology provisions to ensure each acquirer can immediately and effectively compete in the marketplace. Participants For the Commission: David L. Inglefield, Amy S. Posner, and Hyun Lee Son.

For the Respondents: David Wales, Jones Day; and Matthew Hendrickson and Steven Sunshine, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP.

COMPLAINT Pursuant to the Clayton Act and the Federal Trade Commission Act, and its authority thereunder, the Federal Trade Commission (“Commission”), having reason to believe that Mylan Inc. (“Mylan”), a corporation subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission, has agreed to acquire Agila Specialties Global Pte. Limited and Agila Specialties Private Limited (collectively, “Agila”), entities subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission, from Strides Arcolab Ltd. (“Strides”) in violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45, and that such acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45, and it appearing to the Commission that a proceeding in respect thereof would be in the public interest, hereby issues its Complaint, stating its charges as follows:

I. RESPONDENTS 1. Respondent Mylan is a corporation organized, existing, and doing business under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Pennsylvania, with its corporate office and principal place of MYLAN INC. 519 Complaint business located at 1500 Corporate Drive, Canonsburg, Pennsylvania 15317.

2. Respondent Agila Specialties Global Pte. Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Strides, is a corporation organized, existing, and doing business under and by virtue of the laws of the Republic of Singapore, with its corporate office and principal place of business located at 3 Tuas South Avenue 4, Singapore 637610.

3. Respondent Agila Specialties Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Strides, is a corporation organized, existing, and doing business under and by virtue of the laws of the Republic of India, having its corporate office and principal place of business at Strides House, Bilekahalli, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore 560-076, India.

4. Respondent Strides is a corporation organized, existing, and doing business under and by virtue of the laws of India, having its corporate office and principal place of business at Strides House, Bilekahalli, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore 560- 076, India.

5. Each Respondent is, and at all times relevant herein has been, engaged in commerce, as “commerce” is defined in Section 1 of the Clayton Act as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 12, and is a corporation whose business is in or affects commerce, as “commerce” is defined in Section 4 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 44.

II. THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION 6. Under the terms of a Sale and Purchase Agreement with an effective date of February 27, 2013 (“Agreement”), Mylan proposes to acquire all of the voting securities of Agila for approximately $1.85 billion from Strides (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition is subject to Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18.

VOLUME 156 Complaint III. THE RELEVANT PRODUCT MARKETS 7. For the purposes of this Complaint, the relevant lines of commerce in which to analyze the effects of the Acquisition are the development, license, manufacture, marketing, distribution, and sale of the following generic injectable pharmaceutical products:

a. amiodarone hydrochloride injection; b. etomidate injection;

c. fluorouracil injection;

d. labetalol hydrochloride injection; e. mesna injection;

f. methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection; g. acetylcysteine injection;

h. fomepizole injection;

i. ganciclovir injection;

j. meropenem injection; and k. mycophenolate mofetil injection.

IV. THE RELEVANT GEOGRAPHIC MARKET 8. For the purposes of this Complaint, the United States is the relevant geographic market in which to assess the competitive effects of the Acquisition in each of the relevant lines of commerce.

V. THE STRUCTURE OF THE MARKETS 9. Amiodarone hydrochloride injection is an anti-arrhythmic cardiac drug of last resort used to treat patients with frequently recurring ventricular fibrillation or unstable ventricular MYLAN INC. 521 Complaint tachycardia. The market for amiodarone hydrochloride injection is highly concentrated with only three current suppliers for the drug – Mylan, Fresenius Kabi AG (“Fresenius”), and Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC. Mylan has a 60% share of the market. Agila has an approved Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and is about to enter this market, as is one other firm. Thus, the Acquisition would reduce the number of suppliers of generic amiodarone hydrochloride injection from five to four. 10. Etomidate injection is an anesthetic agent used to induce general anesthesia and sedation for surgical procedures. There are currently four significant suppliers in this highly concentrated market – Mylan, Agila (which distributes its product through Pfizer Inc. and Sagent), Hospira, Inc. (“Hospira”), and American Regent, Inc. The Acquisition would substantially increase concentration in this market and reduce the number of suppliers of generic etomidate injection from four to three. 11. Fluorouracil injection treats colon, rectal, breast, stomach, and pancreatic cancers. Four firms currently supply fluorouracil injection in this highly concentrated market – Mylan, Fresenius, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”), and Sandoz International Gmbh. (“Sandoz”). Agila is the only other company that currently holds an approved ANDA to sell generic fluorouracil in the United States. As a result, the Acquisition would reduce the number of firms capable of supplying generic fluorouracil injection from five to four. 12. Labetalol hydrochloride injection treats severe hypertension. The market for labetalol hydrochloride injection is highly concentrated. Only Mylan, Agila, Hospira, Akorn, Inc., and Apotex Inc. have approved ANDAs and manufacturing facilities currently capable of producing generic labetalol hydrochloride injection. The Acquisition would reduce the number of firms capable of supplying generic labetalol hydrochloride injection from five to four. 13. Mesna injection is a detoxifying agent used to prevent damage to the urinary tract caused by ifosfamide, a third-line chemotherapy drug used to treat germ cell testicular cancer. VOLUME 156 Complaint There are four current, significant suppliers of generic mesna injection – Mylan, Agila, Fresenius, and Baxter International Inc. The Acquisition would increase concentration in this market substantially, and reduce the number of current suppliers of generic mesna injection from four to three. 14. Methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection treats several types of pediatric cancers, as well as certain autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Five firms currently supply the market with methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection – Mylan, Agila, Fresenius, Teva, and Hospira. The Acquisition would reduce the number of current suppliers of the drug from five to four. 15. Acetylcysteine injection prevents or minimizes liver damage resulting from acetaminophen overdose. There are two generic acetylcysteine injection products currently on the market, and Mylan and Agila are two of only a limited number of firms that have generic products in development. Therefore, the Acquisition would reduce the number of likely future suppliers of generic acetylcysteine injection.

16. Injectable fomepizole treats accidental poisoning caused by ethylene glycol or methanol ingestion. Three firms currently supply the highly concentrated market for generic fomepizole injection – Mylan, X-Gen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and Sandoz. Agila is developing its own generic fomepizole injection product and likely would be the next firm to enter the market. As a result, the Acquisition would reduce the number of suppliers of generic fomepizole injection in the near future. 17. Ganciclovir injection is an antiviral medication used to treat patients with weakened immune systems, such as patients with HIV-AIDS and transplant recipients, to slow the growth of cytomegalovirus, a form of herpes virus that can lead to blindness. Currently, Roche Palo Alto, LLC (“Roche”) sells a branded product, Cytovene, and Fresenius is the only generic competitor. Mylan and Agila are two of only a limited number of firms that have this drug in development. Therefore, the Acquisition would reduce the number of likely future suppliers of generic ganciclovir injection.

MYLAN INC. 523 Complaint 18. Meropenem injection is an ultra-broad spectrum antibiotic used as a last resort to treat serious bacterial infections in an intensive care setting. There are currently four suppliers of the drug – AstraZeneca PLC, Fresenius, Hospira, and Sandoz. All four of these companies, however, obtain their supplies of meropenem from only two manufacturing facilities. Mylan and Agila are two of only a limited number of firms that have a generic meropenem injection product in development and plan to procure their meropenem supplies from different manufacturing facilities. As a result, the Acquisition would reduce the number of marketers, as well as the sources of manufacturing, of generic meropenem injection in the future.

19. Mycophenolate mofetil injection is an immunosuppressant used in transplant medicine to subdue T-cell and B-cell production, reducing the risk of transplant rejection. The market for generic mycophenolate mofetil injection does not yet exist. Roche currently sells a branded version of the product, CellCept. When generic entry occurs, Mylan and Agila would likely be among a limited number of suppliers. Thus, the Acquisition would reduce the number of likely future suppliers of generic mycophenolate mofetil injection.

VI. ENTRY CONDITIONS 20. Entry into the relevant markets described in Paragraphs 7 and 8 would not be timely, likely, or sufficient in magnitude, character, and scope to deter or counteract the anticompetitive effects of the Acquisition. De novo entry would not take place in a timely manner because the combination of drug development times and FDA approval requirements would delay entry by at least two years. Although a limited number of firms other than Respondents plan to begin competing in some relevant markets in the future, such entry would not be sufficient to prevent the competitive harm likely to result from the Acquisition. In addition, no other entry is likely to occur for a substantial amount of time that would eliminate the price increases that will occur after consummation of the Acquisition. VII. EFFECTS OF THE ACQUISITION VOLUME 156 Complaint 21. The effects of the Acquisition, if consummated, would likely be to substantially lessen competition and tend to create a monopoly in the relevant markets in violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45, in the following ways, among others:

a. by eliminating actual, direct, and substantial competition between Mylan and Agila and reducing the number of competitors in the markets for (1) amiodarone hydrochloride injection; (2) etomidate injection; (3) fluorouracil injection; (4) labetalol hydrochloride injection; (5) mesna injection; and (6) methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection, thereby: (a) increasing the likelihood that Mylan will be able to unilaterally exercise market power in these markets; (b) increasing the likelihood and degree of coordinated interaction between or among the remaining competitors; and (c) increasing the likelihood that customers would be forced to pay higher prices; and b. by eliminating future competition between Mylan and Agila and reducing the number of generic competitors in the markets for (1) acetylcysteine injection; (2) fomepizole injection; (3) ganciclovir injection; (4) meropenem injection; and (5) mycophenolate mofetil injection, thereby: (a) increasing the likelihood that the combined entity would forego or delay the launch of these products, and (b) increasing the likelihood that the combined entity would delay, eliminate, or otherwise reduce the substantial additional price competition that would have resulted from an additional supplier of these products. VIII. VIOLATIONS CHARGED 22. The Agreement described in Paragraph 6 constitutes a violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45.

MYLAN INC. 525 Complaint 23. The Acquisition described in Paragraph 6, if consummated, would constitute a violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45.

WHEREFORE, THE PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Federal Trade Commission on this twenty-sixth day of September 2013, issues its Complaint against said Respondent. By the Commission.

provided, however, that if Respondent Mylan has divested the Labetalol Divestiture Product Assets to Gland prior to the Order Date, and if, at the time the Commission determines to make this Order final and effective, the Commission notifies Respondent Mylan that the manner in which the divestiture was accomplished is not acceptable, the Commission may direct Respondent Mylan, or appoint a Divestiture Trustee, to effect such modifications to the manner of divestiture of the Labetalol Divestiture Product Assets to Gland (including, but not limited to, entering into additional agreements or arrangements) as the Commission may determine are necessary to satisfy the requirements of this Order.

E. Prior to the Closing Date, Respondents shall secure all consents and waivers from all Third Parties that are necessary to permit Respondents to divest the assets VOLUME 156 Decision and Order required to be divested pursuant to this Order to an Acquirer, and to permit the relevant Acquirer to continue the Business of the Divestiture Product(s) being acquired by that Acquirer;

provided, however, Respondents may satisfy this requirement by certifying that the relevant Acquirer for the Divestiture Product has executed all such agreements directly with each of the relevant Third Parties.

F. Respondents shall:

1. submit to each Acquirer, at Respondents’ expense, all Confidential Business Information related to the Divestiture Products being acquired by that Acquirer;

This obligation may be made contingent upon the Acquirer giving that Respondent prompt written notice of such claim and cooperating fully in the defense of such claim; provided, however, that a Respondent may reserve the right to control the defense of any such claim, including the right to settle the claim, so long as such settlement is consistent with that Respondent’s responsibilities to supply the Contract Manufacture Products in the manner required by this Order; provided further, however, that this obligation shall not require Respondents to be liable for any negligent act or omission of the Acquirer or for any representations and warranties, VOLUME 156 Decision and Order express or implied, made by the Acquirer that exceed the representations and warranties made by a Respondent to the Acquirer in an agreement to Contract Manufacture;

provided further, however, that in each instance where: (i) an agreement to divest relevant assets or Contract Manufacture is specifically referenced and attached to this Order, and (ii) such agreement becomes a Remedial Agreement for a Divestiture Product, each such agreement may contain limits on a Respondent’s aggregate liability resulting from the failure of the Contract Manufacture Products supplied to the Acquirer pursuant to such Remedial Agreement to meet cGMP;

3. give priority to supplying a Contract Manufacture Product to the relevant Acquirer over manufacturing and supplying of Products for Respondents’ own use or sale;

4. make representations and warranties to each Acquirer that Respondents shall hold harmless and indemnify the Acquirer for any liabilities or loss of profits resulting from the failure of the Contract Manufacture Products to be delivered in a timely manner as required by the Remedial Agreement(s) unless Respondents can demonstrate that the failure was beyond the control of Respondents and in no part the result of negligence or willful misconduct by Respondents;

provided, however, that in each instance where: (i) an agreement to divest relevant assets or Contract Manufacture is specifically referenced and attached to this Order and (ii) such agreement becomes a Remedial Agreement for a Divestiture Product, each such agreement may contain limits on a Respondent’s aggregate liability for such a failure; 5. during the term of any agreement to Contract Manufacture, upon written request of that Acquirer MYLAN INC. 591 Decision and Order or the Interim Monitor (if any has been appointed), make available to the Acquirer and the Interim Monitor (if any has been appointed) all records that relate to the manufacture of the relevant Contract Manufacture Products that are generated or created after the Closing Date;

6. during the term of any agreement to Contract, Respondent Mylan shall take all actions as are reasonably necessary to ensure an uninterrupted supply of the Contract Manufacture Product(s); 7. in the event Respondent Mylan becomes unable to supply or produce a Contract Manufacture Product from the facility or facilities originally contemplated under a Remedial Agreement with an Acquirer, then Respondent Mylan shall provide a therapeutically equivalent (as that term is defined by the FDA) Product from another of Respondent Mylan’s facility or facilities in those instances where such facilities are being used or have previously been used, and are able to be used, by Respondents to manufacture such Product(s); 8. provide access to all information and facilities, and make such arrangements with Third Parties, as are necessary to allow the Interim Monitor to monitor compliance with the obligations to Contract Manufacture;

9. during the term of any agreement to Contract Manufacture, provide consultation with knowledgeable employees of the Respondents and training, at the written request of the Acquirer and at a facility chosen by the Acquirer, for the purposes of enabling that Acquirer (or the Manufacturing Designee of that Acquirer) to obtain all Product Approvals to manufacture the Contract Manufacture Products acquired by that Acquirer in the same quality achieved by, or on behalf of, the relevant Respondent (as that VOLUME 156 Decision and Order Respondent is identified in the definition of the respective Divestiture Product) and in commercial quantities, and in a manner consistent with cGMP, independently of Respondent Mylan and sufficient to satisfy management of the Acquirer that its personnel (or the Manufacturing Designee’s personnel) are adequately trained in the manufacture of the Contract Manufacture Products; The foregoing provisions, II.H.1. - 9., shall remain in effect with respect to each Contract Manufacture Product until the earliest of: (i) the date the Acquirer of that Contract Manufacture Product (or the Manufacturing Designee(s) of that Acquirer), respectively, is approved by the FDA to manufacture and sell such Contract Manufacture Product in the United States and able to manufacture such Contract Manufacture Product in commercial quantities, in a manner consistent with cGMP, independently of Respondent Mylan; (ii) the date the Acquirer of a particular Contract Manufacture Product notifies the Commission and Respondent Mylan of its intention to abandon its efforts to manufacture such Contract Manufacture Product; (iii) the date of written notification from staff of the Commission that the Interim Monitor, in consultation with staff of the Commission, has determined that the Acquirer of a particular Contract Manufacture Product has abandoned its efforts to manufacture such Contract Manufacture Product, or (iv) the date five (v) years from the Closing Date.

I. Respondent Mylan shall require, as a condition of continued employment post-divestiture of the assets required to be divested pursuant to this Order, that each employee that has had responsibilities related to the marketing or sales of the Divestiture Products within the one (1) year period prior to the Closing Date and each employee that has responsibilities related to the marketing or sales of those Retained Products that are the therapeutic equivalent (as that term is defined by the FDA) of the Divestiture Products, in each case MYLAN INC. 593 Decision and Order who have or may have had access to Confidential Business Information, and the direct supervisor(s) of any such employee sign a confidentiality agreement pursuant to which that employee shall be required to maintain all Confidential Business Information related to the Divestiture Products as strictly confidential, including the nondisclosure of that information to all other employees, executives or other personnel of Respondent Mylan (other than as necessary to comply with the requirements of this Order).

J. Not later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Respondent Mylan shall provide written notification of the restrictions on the use and disclosure of the Confidential Business Information related to the Divestiture Products by Respondent Mylan’s personnel to all of their employees who (i) may be in possession of such Confidential Business Information or (ii) may have access to such Confidential Business Information. Respondent Mylan shall give the above-described notification by e mail with return receipt requested or similar transmission, and keep a file of those receipts for one (1) year after the Closing Date. Respondent Mylan shall provide a copy of the notification to the relevant Acquirer. Respondent Mylan shall maintain complete records of all such notifications at Respondent Mylan’s registered office within the United States and shall provide an officer’s certification to the Commission stating that the acknowledgment program has been implemented and is being complied with. Respondent Mylan shall provide the relevant Acquirer with copies of all certifications, notifications and reminders sent to Respondent Mylan’s personnel.

K. For each Acquirer of a Divestiture Product that is a Contract Manufacture Product, Respondent Mylan shall:

1. for a period of six (6) months from the Closing Date or until the hiring of twenty (20) Divestiture VOLUME 156 Decision and Order Product Core Employees by that Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee, whichever occurs earlier, provide that Acquirer with the opportunity to enter into employment contracts with the Divestiture Product Core Employees related to the Divestiture Products and assets acquired by that Acquirer.

2. not later than the earlier of the following dates: (i) ten (10) days after notice by staff of the Commission to Respondent Mylan to provide the Product Employee Information; or (ii) ten (10) days after written request by that Acquirer, provide that Acquirer or Proposed Acquirer(s) with the Product Employee Information related to the Divestiture Product Core Employees. Failure by Respondent Mylan to provide the Product Employee Information for any Divestiture Product Core Employee within the time provided herein shall extend the Divestiture Product Core Employee Access Period(s) with respect to that employee in an amount equal to the delay; 3. during the Divestiture Product Core Employee Access Period(s), not interfere with the hiring or employing by that Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee of the Divestiture Product Core Employees, and remove any impediments within the control of Respondent Mylan that may deter these employees from accepting employment with that Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee, including, but not limited to, any noncompete or nondisclosure provision of employment with respect to a Divestiture Product or other contracts with Respondents Mylan or Agila that would affect the ability or incentive of those individuals to be employed by that Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee. In addition, Respondents Mylan or Agila shall not make any counteroffer to such a Divestiture Product Core Employee who has MYLAN INC. 595 Decision and Order received a written offer of employment from that Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee; provided, however, that, subject to the conditions of continued employment prescribed in this Order, this Paragraph shall not prohibit Respondents from continuing to employ any Divestiture Product Core Employee under the terms of that employee’s employment with Respondents prior to the date of the written offer of employment from the Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee to that employee; 4. until the Closing Date, provide all Divestiture Product Core Employees with reasonable financial incentives to continue in their positions and to research, Develop, and manufacture the Divestiture Product consistent with past practices and/or as may be necessary to preserve the marketability, viability and competitiveness of the Divestiture Product and to ensure successful execution of the pre-Acquisition plans for that Divestiture Product. Such incentives shall include a continuation of all employee compensation and benefits offered by Respondents until the Closing Date(s) for the divestiture of the assets related to the Divestiture Product has occurred, including regularly scheduled raises, bonuses, and vesting of pension benefits (as permitted by Law);

provided, however, that this Paragraph does not require nor shall be construed to require Respondents to terminate the employment of any employee or to prevent Respondents from continuing to employ the Divestiture Product Core Employees in connection with the Acquisition; and 5. for a period of one (1) year from the Closing Date, not, directly or indirectly, solicit or otherwise attempt to induce any employee of the Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee with any amount of responsibility related to a Divestiture Product VOLUME 156 Decision and Order (“Divestiture Product Employee”) to terminate his or her employment relationship with the Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee; or hire any Divestiture Product Employee;

provided, however, Respondents may hire any former Divestiture Product Employee whose employment has been terminated by the Acquirer or its Manufacturing Designee or who independently applies for employment with a Respondent, as long as that employee was not solicited in violation of the nonsolicitation requirements contained herein;

provided further, however, that any Respondent may do the following: (i) advertise for employees in newspapers, trade publications or other media not targeted specifically at the Divestiture Product Employees; or (ii) hire a Divestiture Product Employee who contacts any Respondent on his or her own initiative without any direct or indirect solicitation or encouragement from any Respondent.

L. Until Respondents complete the divestitures required by this Order and fully provide, or cause to be provided, the Product Manufacturing Technology related to a particular Divestiture Product to the relevant Acquirer, 1. Respondents shall take actions as are necessary to: a. maintain the full economic viability and marketability of the Businesses associated with that Divestiture Product;

b. minimize any risk of loss of competitive potential for that Business;

c. prevent the destruction, removal, wasting, deterioration, or impairment of any of the assets related to that Divestiture Product; MYLAN INC. 597 Decision and Order d. ensure the assets related to each Divestiture Product are provided to the relevant Acquirer in a manner without disruption, delay, or impairment of the regulatory approval processes related to the Business associated with each Divestiture Product;

e. ensure the completeness of the transfer and delivery of the Product Manufacturing Technology; and 2. Respondents shall not sell, transfer, encumber or otherwise impair the assets required to be divested (other than in the manner prescribed in this Order) nor take any action that lessens the full economic viability, marketability, or competitiveness of the Businesses associated with that Divestiture Product.

M. Respondents shall not join, file, prosecute or maintain any suit, in law or equity, against an Acquirer or the Divestiture Product Releasee(s) of that Acquirer under the following:

1. any Patent owned by or licensed to a Respondent as of the day after the Acquisition Date that claims a method of making, using, or administering, or a composition of matter of a Product, or that claims a device relating to the use thereof;

2. any Patent that was filed or in existence on or before the Acquisition Date that is acquired by or licensed to a Respondent at any time after the Acquisition Date that claims a method of making, using, or administering, or a composition of matter of a Product, or that claims a device relating to the use thereof;

if such suit would have the potential directly to limit or interfere with that Acquirer’s freedom to practice the VOLUME 156 Decision and Order following: (i) the research, Development, or manufacture anywhere in the World of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer for the purposes of marketing, sale or offer for sale within the United States of America of such Divestiture Product(s); or (ii) the use within, import into, export from, or the supply, distribution, or sale within, the United States of America of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer. Each Respondent shall also covenant to that Acquirer that as a condition of any assignment or license from that Respondent to a Third Party of the above-described Patents, the Third Party shall agree to provide a covenant whereby the Third Party covenants not to sue that Acquirer or the related Divestiture Product Releasee(s) under such Patents, if the suit would have the potential directly to limit or interfere with that Acquirer’s freedom to practice the following: (i) the research, Development, or manufacture anywhere in the World of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer for the purposes of marketing, sale or offer for sale within the United States of America of such Divestiture Product(s); or (ii) the use within, import into, export from, or the supply, distribution, or sale or offer for sale within, the United States of America of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer. The provisions of this Paragraph do not apply to any Patent owned by, acquired by or licensed to or from a Respondent that claims inventions conceived by and reduced to practice after the Acquisition Date.

N. Upon reasonable written notice and request from an Acquirer to Respondent Mylan, Respondent Mylan shall provide, in a timely manner, at no greater than Direct Cost, assistance of knowledgeable employees of Respondent Mylan to assist that Acquirer to defend against, respond to, or otherwise participate in any litigation brought by a Third Party related to the Product Intellectual Property related to any of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer, if such litigation would have the potential to interfere with that Acquirer’s freedom to practice the following: MYLAN INC. 599 Decision and Order (i) the research, Development, or manufacture anywhere in the World of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer for the purposes of marketing, sale or offer for sale within the United States of America of such Divestiture Product(s); or (ii) the use within, import into, export from, or the supply, distribution, or sale within, the United States of America of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer.

O. For any patent infringement suit filed prior to the Closing Date in which any Respondent is alleged to have infringed a Patent of a Third Party or any potential patent infringement suit from a Third Party that any Respondent has prepared or is preparing to defend against as of the Closing Date, and where such a suit would have the potential directly to limit or interfere with the relevant Acquirer’s freedom to practice the following: (i) the research, Development, or manufacture anywhere in the World of the Divestiture Product(s) acquired by that Acquirer for the purposes of marketing, sale or offer for sale within the United States of America of such Divestiture Products; or (ii) the use within, import into, export from, or the supply, distribution, or sale or offer for sale within, the United States of America of such Divestiture Product(s), that Respondent shall: 1. cooperate with that Acquirer and provide any and all necessary technical and legal assistance, documentation and witnesses from that Respondent in connection with obtaining resolution of any pending patent litigation related to that Divestiture Product;

2. waive conflicts of interest, if any, to allow that Respondent’s outside legal counsel to represent that Acquirer in any ongoing patent litigation related to that Divestiture Product; and VOLUME 156 Decision and Order 3. permit the transfer to that Acquirer of all of the litigation files and any related attorney workproduct in the possession of that Respondent’s outside counsel related to that Divestiture Product. P. The purpose of the divestiture of the Divestiture Product Assets and the provision of the related Product Manufacturing Technology and the related obligations imposed on the Respondents by this Order is: 1. to ensure the continued use of such assets for the purposes of the Business associated with each Divestiture Product within the Geographic Territory; and 2. to create a viable and effective competitor that is independent of Respondent Mylan in the Business of each Divestiture Product within the Geographic Territory; and, 3. to remedy the lessening of competition resulting from the Acquisition as alleged in the Commission’s Complaint in a timely and sufficient manner.

III.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that:

A. At any time after the Respondents sign the Consent Agreement in this matter, the Commission may appoint a monitor (“Interim Monitor”) to assure that the Respondents expeditiously comply with all of their obligations and perform all of their responsibilities as required by this Order, the Order to Maintain Assets and the Remedial Agreements.

B. The Commission shall select the Interim Monitor, subject to the consent of Respondents, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Respondent Mylan has not opposed, in writing, including the reasons for opposing, the selection of a proposed MYLAN INC. 601 Decision and Order Interim Monitor within ten (10) days after notice by the staff of the Commission to Respondent Mylan of the identity of any proposed Interim Monitor, Respondents shall be deemed to have consented to the selection of the proposed Interim Monitor. C. Not later than ten (10) days after the appointment of the Interim Monitor, Respondent Mylan shall execute an agreement that, subject to the prior approval of the Commission, confers on the Interim Monitor all the rights and powers necessary to permit the Interim Monitor to monitor Respondents’ compliance with the relevant requirements of the Order in a manner consistent with the purposes of the Order.

b. the date the Acquirer of that Divestiture Product notifies the Commission and Respondent Mylan of its intention to abandon its efforts to manufacture that Divestiture Product; or c. the date of written notification from staff of the Commission that the Interim Monitor, in consultation with staff of the Commission, has determined that the Acquirer has abandoned its efforts to manufacture that Divestiture Product; provided, however, that, the Interim Monitor’s service shall not exceed five (5) years from the Order Date;

provided, further, that the Commission may extend or modify this period as may be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the purposes of the Orders.

E. Subject to any demonstrated legally recognized privilege, the Interim Monitor shall have full and complete access to Respondents’ personnel, books, documents, records kept in the ordinary course of business, facilities and technical information, and such other relevant information as the Interim Monitor may reasonably request, related to Respondents’ compliance with its obligations under the Orders, including, but not limited to, its obligations related to the relevant assets. Respondents shall cooperate with any reasonable request of the Interim Monitor and MYLAN INC. 603 Decision and Order shall take no action to interfere with or impede the Interim Monitor's ability to monitor Respondents’ compliance with the Orders.

F. The Interim Monitor shall serve, without bond or other security, at the expense of Respondent Mylan, on such reasonable and customary terms and conditions as the Commission may set.

H. Respondents shall report to the Interim Monitor in accordance with the requirements of this Order and as otherwise provided in any agreement approved by the Commission. The Interim Monitor shall evaluate the reports submitted to the Interim Monitor by Respondents, and any reports submitted by each Acquirer with respect to the performance of Respondents’ obligations under the Order or the Remedial Agreement(s). Within thirty (30) days from the date the Interim Monitor receives these reports, the Interim Monitor shall report in writing to the Commission concerning performance by Respondents of their obligations under the Order. provided, however, beginning ninety (90) days after Respondents VOLUME 156 Decision and Order have filed their final report pursuant to Paragraph VII.B., and ninety (90) days thereafter, the Interim Monitor shall report in writing to the Commission concerning progress by each Acquirer toward obtaining FDA approval to manufacture each Divestiture Product and obtaining the ability to manufacture each Divestiture Product in commercial quantities, in a manner consistent with cGMP, independently of Respondents.

I. Respondents may require the Interim Monitor and each of the Interim Monitor’s consultants, accountants, attorneys and other representatives and assistants to sign a customary confidentiality agreement; provided, however, that such agreement shall not restrict the Interim Monitor from providing any information to the Commission.

J. The Commission may, among other things, require the Interim Monitor and each of the Interim Monitor’s consultants, accountants, attorneys and other representatives and assistants to sign an appropriate confidentiality agreement related to Commission materials and information received in connection with the performance of the Interim Monitor’s duties. K. If the Commission determines that the Interim Monitor has ceased to act or failed to act diligently, the Commission may appoint a substitute Interim Monitor in the same manner as provided in this Paragraph. L. The Commission may on its own initiative, or at the request of the Interim Monitor, issue such additional orders or directions as may be necessary or appropriate to assure compliance with the requirements of the Order.

M. The Interim Monitor appointed pursuant to this Order may be the same Person appointed as a Divestiture Trustee pursuant to the relevant provisions of this Order.

Subject to the prior approval of the Commission, the Divestiture Trustee shall have the exclusive power and authority to assign, grant, license, divest, transfer, deliver or otherwise convey the assets that are required by this Order to be assigned, granted, licensed, divested, transferred, delivered or otherwise conveyed.

2. The Divestiture Trustee shall have one (1) year after the date the Commission approves the trust agreement described herein to accomplish the divestiture, which shall be subject to the prior approval of the Commission. If, however, at the end of the one (1) year period, the Divestiture Trustee has submitted a plan of divestiture or the Commission believes that the divestiture can be achieved within a reasonable time, the divestiture period may be extended by the Commission; provided, however, the Commission may extend the divestiture period only two (2) times. 3. Subject to any demonstrated legally recognized privilege, the Divestiture Trustee shall have full and complete access to the personnel, books, records and facilities related to the relevant assets that are required to be assigned, granted, licensed, MYLAN INC. 607 Decision and Order divested, delivered or otherwise conveyed by this Order and to any other relevant information, as the Divestiture Trustee may request. Respondent shall develop such financial or other information as the Divestiture Trustee may request and shall cooperate with the Divestiture Trustee. Respondent shall take no action to interfere with or impede the Divestiture Trustee’s accomplishment of the divestiture. Any delays in divestiture caused by Respondent shall extend the time for divestiture under this Paragraph in an amount equal to the delay, as determined by the Commission or, for a court appointed Divestiture Trustee, by the court. 4. The Divestiture Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate the most favorable price and terms available in each contract that is submitted to the Commission, subject to Respondent’s absolute and unconditional obligation to divest expeditiously and at no minimum price. The divestiture shall be made in the manner and to an Acquirer as required by this Order; provided, however, if the Divestiture Trustee receives bona fide offers from more than one acquiring Person, and if the Commission determines to approve more than one such acquiring Person, the Divestiture Trustee shall divest to the acquiring Person selected by Respondent from among those approved by the Commission; provided further, however, that Respondent shall select such Person within five (5) days after receiving notification of the Commission’s approval.

5. The Divestiture Trustee shall serve, without bond or other security, at the cost and expense of Respondents, on such reasonable and customary terms and conditions as the Commission or a court may set.

The Divestiture Trustee shall account for all monies derived from the divestiture and all expenses incurred. After approval by the Commission of the account of the Divestiture Trustee, including fees for the Divestiture Trustee’s services, all remaining monies shall be paid at the direction of Respondents, and the Divestiture Trustee’s power shall be terminated. The compensation of the Divestiture Trustee shall be based at least in significant part on a commission arrangement contingent on the divestiture of all of the relevant assets that are required to be divested by this Order.

6. Respondent shall indemnify the Divestiture Trustee and hold the Divestiture Trustee harmless against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses arising out of, or in connection with, the performance of the Divestiture Trustee’s duties, including all reasonable fees of counsel and other expenses incurred in connection with the preparation for, or defense of, any claim, whether or not resulting in any liability, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses result from gross negligence, willful or wanton acts, or bad faith by the Divestiture Trustee.

7. The Divestiture Trustee shall have no obligation or authority to operate or maintain the relevant assets required to be divested by this Order; provided, however, that the Divestiture Trustee appointed pursuant to this Paragraph may be the same Person appointed as Interim Monitor pursuant to the relevant provisions of this Order or the Order to Maintain Assets in this matter.

MYLAN INC. 609 Decision and Order 8. The Divestiture Trustee shall report in writing to Respondent and to the Commission every sixty (60) days concerning the Divestiture Trustee’s efforts to accomplish the divestiture. 9.

By the Commission.

MYLAN INC. 615 Analysis to Aid Public Comment ANALYSIS OF CONSENT ORDER TO AID PUBLIC COMMENT Introduction The Federal Trade Commission (“Commission”) has accepted, subject to final approval, an Agreement Containing Consent Orders (“Consent Agreement”) from Mylan Inc. (“Mylan”), Agila Specialties Global Pte. Limited and Agila Specialties Private Limited (collectively, “Agila”), and Strides Arcolab Limited (“Strides”) that is designed to remedy the anticompetitive effects that otherwise would have resulted in eleven generic injectable pharmaceutical markets from Mylan’s proposed acquisition of Agila. Under the terms of the proposed Consent Agreement, Mylan is required to divest either Mylan or Agila/Strides products as follows: (1) to Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (“Intas”), Mylan’s fluorouracil injection and methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection; (2) to JHP Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“JHP”), Mylan’s etomidate injection, ganciclovir injection, meropenem injection, and mycophenolate mofetil injection and Agila/Strides’ amiodarone hydrochloride injection and fomepizole injection; and (3) to Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sagent”), Agila/Strides’ acetylcysteine injection and mesna injection. In addition, Mylan is required to release all of its rights relating to labetalol hydrochloride injection to Gland Pharma Ltd. (“Gland”). The proposed Consent Agreement has been placed on the public record for thirty days for receipt of comments from interested persons. Comments received during this period will become part of the public record. After thirty days, the Commission will again evaluate the proposed Consent Agreement, along with the comments received, in order to make a final decision as to whether it should withdraw from the proposed Consent Agreement, or make final the Decision and Order (“Order”).

Mylan proposes to acquire Agila for approximately $1.85 billion pursuant to a Sale and Purchase Agreement dated February 27, 2013 (“Proposed Acquisition”). The Commission alleges in its Complaint that the Proposed Acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 VOLUME 156 Analysis to Aid Public Comment U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45, by lessening current and future competition in eleven generic injectable pharmaceutical product markets in the United States. The eleven product markets are: (1) amiodarone hydrochloride injection; (2) etomidate injection; (3) fluorouracil injection; (4) labetalol hydrochloride injection; (5) mesna injection; (6) methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection; (7) acetylcysteine injection; (8) fomepizole injection; (9) ganciclovir injection; (10) meropenem injection; and (11) mycophenolate mofetil injection. The proposed Consent Agreement will remedy the alleged violations by replacing the competition that would otherwise be eliminated by the Proposed Acquisition.

The Relevant Products and Structure of the Markets Mylan’s proposed purchase of Agila will lessen current and future competition in each of the eleven generic injectable pharmaceutical product markets, in part, because the Proposed Acquisition will reduce the number of suppliers competing for customers in each market. Injectable drugs are administered intravenously, usually via a syringe or hollow needle. Generic versions of these drugs are usually launched after a branded product’s patents expire, or a generic supplier successfully challenges such patents in court or reaches a legal settlement with the branded manufacturer. Once multiple generic suppliers enter a market, the branded drug manufacturer usually ceases to provide any competitive constraint on the prices for generic versions of the drug. Rather, the generic suppliers compete only against each other. Sometimes, however, a branded injectable drug manufacturer may choose to lower its price and compete against generic versions of the drug, in which case it would be a participant in the generic drug market. The number of suppliers in generic pharmaceutical markets is critical because prices generally decrease as the number of competing generic suppliers increases. In addition, the injectable pharmaceutical industry generally, and the generic products at issue in this investigation in particular, are highly susceptible to supply disruptions caused by the inherent difficulties of producing sterile liquid drugs. Recent manufacturing problems have made it difficult for customers to obtain sufficient quantities of, and MYLAN INC. 617 Analysis to Aid Public Comment contributed to price increases of, several of the generic injectable products impacted by this transaction. By reducing the number of competitors in these markets, the Proposed Acquisition will likely create a direct and substantial anticompetitive effect on prices for each of the relevant products, absent the remedies required by the proposed Consent Agreement.

The Proposed Acquisition will reduce current (or imminent) competition in the markets for each of the following generic injectable products: (1) amiodarone hydrochloride injection; (2) etomidate injection; (3) fluorouracil injection; (4) labetalol hydrochloride injection; (5) mesna injection; and (6) methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection. The structure of these markets is as follows:

• Amiodarone hydrochloride injection is an anti-arrhythmic cardiac drug of last resort used to treat patients with frequently recurring ventricular fibrillation or unstable ventricular tachycardia. The market for amiodarone hydrochloride injection is highly concentrated with only three current suppliers for the drug – Mylan, Fresenius Kabi AG (“Fresenius”), and Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC. Mylan has a 60% share of the market. Agila has an approved Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and is about to enter this market, as is one other firm. Thus, the Proposed Acquisition would reduce the number of suppliers of generic amiodarone hydrochloride injection from five to four.

• Etomidate injection is an anesthetic agent used to induce general anesthesia and sedation for surgical procedures. There are currently four significant suppliers in this highly concentrated market – Mylan, Agila (which distributes its product through Pfizer Inc. and Sagent), Hospira, Inc. (“Hospira”), and American Regent, Inc. Absent a remedy, the Proposed Acquisition would substantially increase concentration in this market, provide the combined firm a market share of 46%, and reduce the number of suppliers of generic etomidate injection from four to three. VOLUME 156 Analysis to Aid Public Comment • Fluorouracil injection treats colon, rectal, breast, stomach, and pancreatic cancers. In this highly concentrated market, four firms have supplied fluorouracil injection in the recent past – Mylan, Fresenius, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”), and Sandoz International Gmbh. (“Sandoz”). A number of these suppliers, however, have experienced significant manufacturing issues. Agila is the only other company that currently holds an approved ANDA to sell generic fluorouracil in the United States. The Proposed Acquisition would reduce the number of firms capable of supplying generic fluorouracil injection from five to four.

• Labetalol hydrochloride injection treats severe hypertension. The market for labetalol hydrochloride injection is highly concentrated and only five firms are capable of supplying the drug today – Mylan, Agila, Hospira, Akorn, Inc., and Apotex Inc. Currently, Hospira and Akorn make most of the sales in this market, and Mylan, Agila, and Apotex are the only other firms with approved ANDAs and manufacturing facilities currently capable of producing this product. The Proposed Acquisition would reduce the number of firms capable of supplying generic labetalol hydrochloride injection from five to four.

• Mesna injection is a detoxifying agent used to prevent damage to the urinary tract caused by ifosfamide, a thirdline chemotherapy drug used to treat germ cell testicular cancer. There are four current, significant suppliers of generic mesna injection – Mylan, Agila, Fresenius, and Baxter International Inc. The Proposed Acquisition would increase concentration in this market substantially, and reduce the number of current suppliers of generic mesna injection from four to three.

• Methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection treats several types of pediatric cancers, as well as certain autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Five firms currently supply the market for methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection – Mylan, Agila, Fresenius, Teva, and Hospira. The MYLAN INC. 619 Analysis to Aid Public Comment Proposed Acquisition would reduce the number of current suppliers of this drug from five to four. In addition, the Proposed Acquisition will significantly reduce future competition in the markets for the following generic injectable products: (1) acetylcysteine injection; (2) fomepizole injection; (3) ganciclovir injection; and (4) meropenem injection. In each of these markets, either Mylan or Agila, or both, currently do not supply an existing generic product, but will likely do so in the near future, and entry by one or both of the parties will likely increase price competition in that market significantly absent the Proposed Acquisition. The structure of each of these markets is as follows:

• Acetylcysteine injection prevents or minimizes liver damage resulting from acetaminophen overdose. There are two generic acetylcysteine injection products currently on the market, and Mylan and Agila are two of only a limited number of firms that have generic products in development. Therefore, the Proposed Acquisition would significantly reduce the number of likely future suppliers of generic acetylcysteine injection.

• Injectable fomepizole treats accidental poisoning caused by ethylene glycol or methanol ingestion. Three firms currently supply the highly concentrated market for generic fomepizole injection – Mylan, X-Gen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and Sandoz. Agila is developing its own generic fomepizole injection product and likely would be the next firm to enter the market. As a result, the Proposed Acquisition would significantly reduce the number of suppliers of generic fomepizole injection in the near future.

• Ganciclovir injection is an antiviral medication used to treat patients with weakened immune systems, such as patients with HIV-AIDS and transplant recipients, to slow the growth of cytomegalovirus, a form of herpes virus that can lead to blindness. Currently, Roche Palo Alto, LLC (“Roche”) sells a branded product, Cytovene. Fresenius sells the only generic version of this drug. Mylan and VOLUME 156 Analysis to Aid Public Comment Agila are two of only a limited number of firms that have this drug in development. Therefore, the Proposed Acquisition would result in the reduction of likely future suppliers of generic ganciclovir injection. • Meropenem injection is an ultra-broad spectrum antibiotic used as a last resort to treat serious bacterial infections in an intensive care setting. There are currently four suppliers of the drug – AstraZeneca PLC, Fresenius, Hospira, and Sandoz. All four of these companies, however, obtain their supplies of meropenem from two manufacturers. Mylan and Agila are two of only a limited number of firms that have a generic meropenem injection product in development. They are also the only likely entrants that will source their meropenem products from alternative manufacturing facilities. As a result, the Proposed Acquisition would significantly reduce the number of marketers, as well as the sources of manufacturing, of generic meropenem injection in the future.

Finally, the Proposed Acquisition will significantly reduce potential competition in one generic market that does not yet exist – the market for mycophenolate mofetil injections. This market would be highly concentrated when Mylan and Agila would likely enter it in the future. Mycophenolate mofetil injection is an immunosuppressant used in transplant medicine to subdue T-cell and B-cell production, reducing the risk of transplant rejection. Today, Roche sells its branded product, CellCept. When generic entry occurs, Mylan and Agila would likely be among a limited number of suppliers. Thus, the Proposed Acquisition would significantly reduce the number of likely future suppliers of this drug to the detriment of consumers.

Entry Entry into each of these generic injectable product markets will not be timely, likely, or sufficient in magnitude, character, and scope to deter or counteract the likely anticompetitive effects of the Proposed Acquisition. The combination of drug development times and regulatory requirements, including FDA approval, takes well in excess of two years. MYLAN INC. 621 Analysis to Aid Public Comment Competitive Effects Absent a remedy, the Proposed Acquisition would likely cause significant anticompetitive harm to consumers in the relevant generic injectable pharmaceutical markets, either by eliminating significant current or potential competition in concentrated existing markets, or by eliminating significant potential competition among a limited number of likely competitors in a future market. In each of these markets, Mylan and Agila are two of only a limited number of current or likely future suppliers of the drugs in the United States. The evidence shows that prices may continue to decrease even after a number of suppliers have entered a generic injectable drug market. Thus, although Mylan or Agila have not entered some of the markets at issue yet, both companies likely will compete in those markets in the future, and that competition is expected to reduce prices for consumers. The evidence also shows that the removal of an independent generic injectable drug supplier from the relevant markets in which Mylan and Agila currently compete would result in significantly higher prices post-acquisition. Therefore, by eliminating the significant current and future competition between the parties, the Proposed Acquisition will likely cause U.S. consumers to pay significantly higher prices for these generic injectable drugs, absent a remedy. The Consent Agreement The Consent Agreement effectively remedies the Proposed Acquisition’s anticompetitive effects in each relevant market. Under the Consent Agreement, the parties are required to divest either Mylan’s or Agila’s rights and assets related to (1) amiodarone hydrochloride injection, (2) etomidate injection, (3) fluorouracil injection, (4) mesna injection, (5) methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection, (6) acetylcysteine injection, (7) fomepizole injection, (8) ganciclovir injection, (9) meropenem injection, and (10) mycophenolate mofetil injection. In addition, Mylan is required to release all of its rights and assets related to labetalol hydrochloride injection. The parties must accomplish these divestitures and relinquish their rights no later than ten days after the acquisition.

VOLUME 156 Analysis to Aid Public Comment The proposed Consent Agreement requires Mylan to terminate its contract with Gland and to release all rights related to labetalol hydrochloride injection. Gland, a global pharmaceutical company based in India, is Mylan’s contract manufacturer for this drug. Given its experience with this drug, Gland is well positioned to replicate the competition that would otherwise have been lost as a result of the Proposed Acquisition. The proposed Consent Agreement also requires Mylan to divest assets related to fluorouracil injection and methotrexate sodium preservative-free injection to Intas and to divest assets related to etomidate injection, ganciclovir injection, meropenem injection, and mycophenolate mofetil injection to JHP. In addition, the proposed Consent Agreement requires Agila and Strides to divest assets related to acetylcysteine injection and mesna injection to Sagent and to divest assets related to amiodarone hydrochloride injection and fomepizole injection to JHP. Intas is a global pharmaceutical company based in India with approximately 79 prescription drugs approved for sale in the United States, as well as an active product development pipeline. JHP is a New Jersey based pharmaceutical company with approximately 22 approved ANDAs and an active product development pipeline. Finally, Sagent, a pharmaceutical company based in Illinois, has approximately 58 approved ANDAs and an active product development pipeline. With their experience in generic markets, Intas, JHP, and Sagent are expected to replicate fully the competition that would otherwise have been lost as a result of the Proposed Acquisition.

The Commission’s goal in evaluating possible acquirers of divested assets is to maintain the competitive environment that existed prior to the acquisition. If the Commission determines that Intas, JHP, Sagent, or Gland are not acceptable acquirers, or that the manner of the divestitures or releases is not acceptable, the parties must unwind the sale or release of rights to Intas, JHP, Sagent, or Gland and divest the products to a Commissionapproved acquirer within six months of the date the Order becomes final. In that circumstance, the Commission may appoint a trustee to divest the products if the parties fail to divest the products as required.

The proposed Consent Agreement contains several provisions to help ensure that the divestitures are successful. The Order MYLAN INC. 623 Analysis to Aid Public Comment requires Mylan, Agila, and Strides to take all action to maintain the economic viability, marketability, and competitiveness of the products to be divested until such time that they are transferred to a Commission-approved acquirer. Mylan and Agila must transfer their respective manufacturing technologies for generic amiodarone hydrochloride injection, etomidate injection, and fomepizole injection to JHP and must supply JHP with these drugs during the transition period. Further, Agila and Strides must transfer the manufacturing technology for acetylcysteine injection and mesna injection to Sagent and must supply Sagent with the two drugs during the transition period. The purpose of this analysis is to facilitate public comment on the proposed Consent Agreement, and it is not intended to constitute an official interpretation of the proposed Order or to modify its terms in any way.

LETTER ORDER APPROVING TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT Laura A. Wilkinson, Esq.

Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP Dear Ms. Wilkinson:

This letter responds to the Request for Prior Approval and to Reopen Proceedings and Modify the Decision and Order (“Request”) filed by Kinder Morgan, Inc. (“Kinder Morgan”), on August 7, 2013. The Request was placed on the public record for comments until September 13, 2013, and no comments were received. In its Order Reopening and Modifying Order, issued on October 28, 2013, the Commission has determined to reopen the Decision and Order (“Order”) in this matter and modify it as requested by Kinder Morgan.

Kinder Morgan has also requested that, pursuant to Section 2.41 of the Federal Trade Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, 16 C.F.R. § 2.41 (2013), the Commission approve the modification to the Transitions Services Agreement (“TSA Modification”) described in the Request. After consideration of the TSA Modification as set forth in the Request and supplemental documents, as well as other available information, and consistent with the Order as modified by the Order Reopening and Modifying Order, the Commission has determined to approve the TSA Modification. In according its approval, the Commission has relied upon the information submitted and representations made in connection with Kinder Morgan’s Request, and has assumed them to be accurate and complete. By direction of the Commission, Chairwoman Ramirez not participating, and Commissioner Wright abstaining. VOLUME 156 Interlocutory Orders, Etc.

ORDER REOPENING AND MODIFYING ORDER On August 7, 2013, Kinder Morgan, Inc. (“Kinder Morgan”) filed a petition pursuant to Section 5(b) of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C.§ 45(b), and Section 2.51 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice, 16 C.F.R. § 2.51, asking the Commission to reopen and modify the consent order in Docket No. C-4355 (“Order”) issued by the Commission on June 6, 2012. The Order requires Kinder Morgan, in connection with the divestiture of certain natural gas pipeline and related assets, to provide transitional assistance to the acquirer of the assets for a period not to exceed nine months. Kinder Morgan divested the required assets to Tallgrass Energy Partners LP (“Tallgrass”) on November 21, 2012, and entered into an agreement to provide transitional assistance to Tallgrass. In its petition, Kinder Morgan, for itself and Tallgrass, asks that the Commission reopen the Order and extend the time period allowed for the transitional assistance from nine to fourteen months with an option by the acquirer to extend the period for five additional one-month periods (subject to approval by the Commission). Kinder Morgan bases its petition on changed conditions of fact that it claims are sufficient to warrant reopening and modifying the Order. Kinder Morgan also claims that the proposed modification would be in the public interest. For the reasons stated below, the Commission has determined to grant the petition.

Background On October 16, 2011, Kinder Morgan entered into an agreement to acquire El Paso Corporation (“El Paso”). Both Kinder Morgan and El Paso owned natural gas pipelines in the Rocky Mountain region of Wyoming and Colorado that raised competitive concerns for the Commission. To resolve its concerns, the Commission issued the Order on June 6, 2012, requiring Kinder Morgan to divest certain natural gas pipelines and related assets.

Paragraph II.D. of the Commission’s Order also requires Kinder Morgan to provide certain transition services to the KINDER MORGAN 627 Interlocutory Orders, Etc.

acquirer of the divested assets for a period “not to exceed nine (9) months” from the date of divestiture. Transitional assistance includes administrative and technical assistance relating to the operation of natural gas pipeline systems and pipeline business. Such assistance allows time for a purchaser to transfer highly automated systems that control pipelines and is common, even necessary, when pipeline assets are sold. At the same time that Kinder Morgan completed the sale of the pipeline assets to Tallgrass, it also entered into a Transition Services Agreement (“TSA”) with Tallgrass that commenced on November 21, 2012, and terminated on August 13, 2013. Before termination of the agreement, however, at the request of Tallgrass, Kinder Morgan and Tallgrass agreed to extend the time period by five months with an option by Tallgrass to extend the time further for up to five successive one-month periods, for a potential total of a ten-month extension (subject to approval by the Commission).

The TSA obligates Kinder Morgan to provide services and software support to Tallgrass in twenty-two distinct categories, and as of the date of the petition, transitional services were no longer needed for approximately twelve of those categories. If Kinder Morgan is not allowed to extend the time period for providing the transitional assistance, Tallgrass will be unable to operate the assets and properly conduct its business. As a result, Tallgrass would be unable to effectively compete and so the requested extension would benefit consumers as well as Tallgrass. Standard to Reopen and Modify Section 5(b) of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(b) provides that the Commission shall reopen an order to consider whether it should be modified if the respondent “makes a satisfactory showing that changed conditions of law or fact” so require.1 A satisfactory showing sufficient to require reopening is made when a request to reopen identifies significant changes in circumstances and shows that the changes either eliminate the 1 See Supplementary Information, Amendment to 16 CFR 2.51(b), (“Amendment”), 65 Fed. Reg. 50636, August 21, 2000. VOLUME 156 Interlocutory Orders, Etc.

need for the order or make continued application of it inequitable or harmful to competition.2 Section 5(b) also provides that the Commission may reopen and modify an order when, although changed circumstances would not require reopening, the Commission determines that the public interest so requires. Respondents are therefore invited in petitions to reopen to show how the public interest warrants the requested modification.3 In the case of “public interest” requests, FTC Rule of Practice 2.51(b) requires an initial “satisfactory showing” of how the modification would serve the public interest before the Commission determines whether to reopen an order. A “satisfactory showing” requires, with respect to public interest requests, that the petitioner make a prima facie showing of a legitimate public interest reason or reasons justifying relief. A request to reopen and modify will not contain a “satisfactory showing” if it is merely conclusory or otherwise fails to set forth by affidavit(s) specific facts demonstrating in detail the reasons why the public interest would be served by the modification.4 This showing requires the requester to demonstrate, for example, that there is a more effective or efficient way of achieving the purposes of the order, that the order in whole or part is no longer needed, or that there is some other clear public interest that would be served if the Commission were to grant the requested relief. In addition, this showing must be supported by evidence that is credible and reliable.

If, after determining that the requester has made the required showing, the Commission decides to reopen the order, the Commission will then consider and balance all of the reasons for and against modification. In no instance does a decision to reopen 2 S. Rep. No. 96-500, 96th Cong., 2d Sess. 9 (1979) (significant changes or changes causing unfair disadvantage); Louisiana-Pacific Corp., Docket No. C-2956, Letter to John C. Hart (June 5, 1986), at 4 (unpublished) ("Hart Letter"). See also United States v. Louisiana-Pacific Corp., 967 F.2d 1372, 1376-77 (9th Cir. 1992).

an order oblige the Commission to modify it,5 and the burden remains on the requester in all cases to demonstrate why the order should be reopened and modified. The petitioner’s burden is not a light one in view of the public interest in repose and the finality of Commission orders.6 All information and material that the requester wishes the Commission to consider shall be contained in the request at the time of filing.7 The Public Interest Warrants Reopening and Modifying the Order The Commission has determined that (i) the public interest requires that the Order be reopened and (ii) the Order should be modified to extend the time period allowed for Kinder Morgan to provide transitional assistance to the acquirer of the divested assets.8 The purpose of the Order is to maintain competition in the market for transportation of natural gas in geographic markets located in Wyoming and Colorado. Without the continuing transitional assistance, Tallgrass will not be able to properly conduct the business acquired from Kinder Morgan and its ability to effectively compete in these markets will be materially diminished.

Providing an acquirer with necessary transitional assistance is an important component of the divestiture itself. In its orders, the Commission often requires respondents to provide transitional assistance to allow time for an acquirer to transfer or develop the assets necessary to operate the divested business. Because of concerns about “ongoing entanglements” among competitors, however, the Commission also seeks to limit the length of time 5 See United States v. Louisiana-Pacific Corp., 967 F.2d 1372, 1376-77 (9th Cir. 1992) (reopening and modification are independent determinations). 6 See Federated Department Stores, Inc. v. Moitie, 425 U.S. 394 (1981) (strong public interest considerations support repose and finality). 7 16 C.F.R. § 2.51(b).

8 Kinder Morgan has asserted both changed conditions of fact and public interest grounds in support of its petition. Because the Commission has determined that Kinder Morgan has demonstrated the public interest supports the modification, the Commission need not consider whether conditions of fact have indeed changed since it issued the Order. VOLUME 156 Interlocutory Orders, Etc.

that transitional assistance is provided. In this instance, the Commission does not believe that extending the time period as requested by both Kinder Morgan and Tallgrass will raise a concern about ongoing entanglements or otherwise frustrate achieving the remedial purposes of the Order. Conclusion For the reasons explained above, the Commission has determined to reopen and modify Paragraph II.D. of the Order. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that this matter be, and it hereby is, reopened; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Paragraph II.D. of the Order be revised to read:

At the request of the Acquirer, pursuant to an agreement that receives the prior approval of the Commission, Respondent shall, for a period not to exceed nineteen (19) months from the date Respondent divests the KM Pipeline Assets, or as otherwise approved by the Commission, provide Transitional Assistance to the Acquirer: . . .

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND ORDER VACATING ORDER AS TO AJM PACKAGING CORPORATION AND ISSUING NEW ORDER AS TO AJM PACKAGING CORPORATION The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC” or “Commission”) issued a Decision and Order against AJM Packaging Corporation AJM PACKAGING CORPORATION 633 Interlocutory Orders, Etc.

(“AJM”) and Abram Epstein in Docket C-3508 (“1994 Order”) on July 19, 1994.1 On September 30, 2013, the Commission filed a complaint in federal district court alleging that AJM violated the 1994 Order by making false and unsubstantiated claims regarding certain paper products.

On October 1, 2013, Judge Beryl A. Howell in the District for the District of Columbia entered a Stipulated Order for Permanent Injunction and Civil Penalty Judgment (“Stipulated Order”) resolving the 2013 action. In Section III of the Stipulated Order, AJM consented: (1) to reopening this proceeding; (2) to waiving any rights it might otherwise have under the show cause procedures set forth in Commission Rule 3.72(b), 16 C.F.R. § 3.72(b); (3) to vacating the 1994 Order as to AJM; and (4) to issuing a new FTC order as to AJM as set forth below. In view of the foregoing, the Commission has determined that it is in the public interest to reopen the proceeding in Docket No. C-3508 pursuant to Commission Rule 3.72(b), 16 C.F.R. § 3.72(b); to vacate the 1994 Order as to AJM; and to issue a new order as to AJM as set forth below. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that this matter be, and it hereby is, reopened; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, AJM having consented to vacating the 1994 Order as to it and to issuing a new order as follows, the Commission hereby vacates the 1994 Order as to AJM and issues the attached Decision and Order, which shall become final upon delivery of this Order and the Decision and Order to AJM by any means specified in Commission Rule 4.4(a), 16 C.F.R. § 4.4(a):

RESPONSES TO PETITIONS TO QUASH OR LIMIT COMPULSORY PROCESS NATIONAL PROCESSING CO. AND VANTIV, INC. FTC File No. 132 3105. Order, September 6, 2013. OPINION AND ORDER DENYING PETITION TO QUASH CIVIL INVESTIGATIVE DEMANDS By WRIGHT, Commissioner.

On August 15, 2013, Petitioners, National Processing Co. (“NPC”) and Vantiv, Inc. (collectively the “Vantiv Entities”) filed a timely Petition to Quash Commission Civil Investigative Demands (“CIDs”) dated July 24, 2013. For the reasons set forth below, the Commission denies the Petition to Quash (“Petition”) and orders the Vantiv Entities to comply with the CIDs on or before September 13, 2013.

I. BACKGROUND The Commission’s investigation of the Vantiv Entities concerns activities that are distinct from, but related to, the acts and practices that led to the Commission enforcement action, FTC v. A+ Financial Center, LLC, et al., No. 12-CV-14373-DLG (S.D. Fla. filed Oct. 23, 2012), filed under the authority of 15 U.S.C. §53(b). The A+ Financial complaint alleges that the defendants violated Section 5(a) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (“FTC Act”), 15 U.S.C. §45(a), and the Commission’s Telemarketing Sales Rule (“TSR”), 16 C.F.R. Part 310, by deceptively marketing credit card interest rate reduction services to consumers struggling with high credit card debt, illegally collecting an advance fee for their purported services, and illegally using prerecorded calls to contact consumers. Neither NPC nor Vantiv is a defendant in the A+ Financial enforcement action. Nonetheless, from December 2009 through October 2012, NPC (a credit card processor) processed the majority of the allegedly illegal advance fees that consumers paid to the A+ Financial defendants. Vantiv acquired NPC as a wholly-owned subsidiary in November 2010.

VOLUME 156 Responses to Petitions to Quash On July 24, 2013, the Commission issued a separate CID to each of the Vantiv Entities as part of its investigation into the Vantiv Entities’ role in, and knowledge of, the illegal acts and practices of the A+ Financial defendants. The documents sought in these CIDs (the “July 24, 2013 CIDs”) will help the Commission evaluate whether the Vantiv Entities violated the FTC Act or the TSR. Each CID contains 14 identical document production specifications and a single interrogatory requesting an explanation for the spoliation, if any, of responsive documents. On August 6, 2013, after it issued the CIDs, the Commission served the Vantiv Entities with subpoenas under Fed. R. Civ. P. 45. The subpoenas seek the same documents as the CIDs. Commission counsel issued these subpoenas, in part, because the presiding judge in the A+ Financial enforcement action had suggested that Commission counsel consider sharing any documents produced by the Vantiv Entities with the courtappointed receiver in that enforcement action. However, as a consequence of statutory and regulatory restrictions, Commission counsel could not readily share documents produced in response to a CID with the receiver.1 The return date on the Rule 45 subpoenas was August 19, 2013. On that date, in a letter to Commission counsel, the Vantiv Entities objected to the subpoenas without producing any documents. On August 15, 2013, the Vantiv Entities responded to the issuance of the Commission’s CIDs by filing a Petition to Quash.2 In their Petition to Quash, the Vantiv Entities argue that the Commission’s authority to issue the CIDs terminated when Commission counsel issued Rule 45 subpoenas seeking the same information in the A+ Financial enforcement action. 1 Documents produced to the Commission in response to a CID are nonpublic, and their disclosure is subject to various statutory and regulatory restrictions. 15 U.S.C. §57b-2; 16 C.F.R. §4.10. Documents produced to the Commission in response to Rule 45 subpoenas are not subject to these restrictions.

2 See 15 U.S.C. §57b-1(f) and 16 C.F.R. §2.10. This Petition stayed compliance with the CIDs’ original August 19, 2013, return date. 16 C.F.R. §2.10(b).

NATIONAL PROCESSING CO. and VANTIV INC. 643 Responses to Petitions to Quash II. ANALYSIS The Commission has broad authority under 15 U.S.C. §57b-1 to issue CIDs to further any “Commission investigation”—i.e., “any inquiry conducted by a Commission investigator for the purpose of ascertaining whether any person is or has been engaged in any unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce.” 15 U.S.C. §57b-1(a)(2). The Commission may issue CIDs at any time before it starts an “adjudicative proceeding.” 15 U.S.C. § 57b-1(j)(1).

It is settled that, until the Commission names a person as a defendant or a respondent in a complaint, the Commission is not engaged in an adjudicative proceeding with regard to that person and remains solely in an investigative posture. Genuine Parts Co. v. F.T.C., 445 F.2d 1382, 1388 (5th Cir. 1971); United States v. Anaconda Co., 445 F. Supp. 486, 496-97 (D.D.C. 1977); United States v. Associated Merch. Corp., 261 F. Supp. 553, 558 (S.D.N.Y. 1966). See also In re: Subpoena Duces Tecum Addressed to Atlantic Richfield Co., et al., No. 741-0019, 1978 WL 434436, at *6 (F.T.C. June 2, 1978) (discussing In re: Horizon Corp., No. 9017, 88 F.T.C. 208, 1976 WL 180725, at *1 (July 28, 1976), where the Commission properly issued investigative subpoenas to investigate third-party lenders who had financed the land development activities of respondents in an FTC administrative adjudicative proceeding). Because the Commission did not name either of the Vantiv Entities as a defendant in the A+ Financial enforcement action, it necessarily follows that the Commission may issue CIDs to them. The cases cited by the Petitioners (Petition at 6-7) do not suggest otherwise. Indeed, they uniformly hold that the Commission may issue CIDs to anyone at least until the Commission commences an adjudicatory proceeding against that person.3 3 The Commission may also issue CIDs to a party already in adjudication with the Commission where the Commission is investigating whether that party committed violations beyond those alleged in the pending adjudication. See Resolution Trust Corp. v. Grant Thornton, 41 F.3d 1539, 1545-46 (D.C. Cir. 1994) (“[A]n agency’s investigative powers survive the commencement of litigation where the agency seeks to uncover additional wrongdoing.” (emphasis in original)); Commission Letter to Mr. Glynn, Counsel to Dr. William V. Judy, Denying Petition to Quash, F.T.C. File No. X000069 (Sept. VOLUME 156 Responses to Petitions to Quash Nor is there any inconsistency in the contemporaneous issuance of CIDs and Rule 45 subpoenas. The Commission has good reason to pursue this dual-track effort: the CIDs are justified by the Commission’s ongoing investigation of the conduct of the Vantiv Entities for violations of the FTC Act and the TSR, and the Rule 45 subpoenas are justified by the Vantiv Entities’ business relationship with the defendants. The issuance of the Rule 45 subpoenas does not somehow void otherwise valid CIDs. The July 24, 2013 CIDs and the Rule 45 subpoenas simply constitute alternative and appropriate routes to the same overriding Commission objective: prompt production of the documents the Commission needs.4 Finally, having denied the Petition to Quash, the Commission may now commence CID enforcement proceedings, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §57b-1(e) and 16 C.F.R. §2.13(b), at any time after the new return date if the Vantiv Entities do not comply. We have full confidence that any proceedings to enforce the Rule 45 subpoenas and the July 24, 2013 CIDs will be managed in a manner that both expeditiously secures the necessary documents from the Vantiv Entities and promotes judicial economy. III. CONCLUSION For all the foregoing reasons, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the Petition of Vantiv, Inc. and National Processing Co. be, and hereby is, DENIED. 10, 2002) (“It is axiomatic that the Commission’s authority to investigate one product is not cut off by the filing of a federal lawsuit relating to another.”); see also United States v.

Supp. 614, 619-20 (S.D.N.Y. 1959). 4 On August 22, 2013, after the return date on the Rule 45 subpoenas had passed and the Vantiv Entities had produced no documents, the Commission moved to compel compliance with the subpoenas in the federal district courts for the Southern District of Ohio (as to Vantiv) and the Western District of Kentucky (as to NPC). The Vantiv Entities’ responses are due on September 16, 2013.

AEGIS MOBILE, LLC 645 Responses to Petitions to Quash IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT Petitioners Vantiv, Inc. and National Processing Co. shall comply in all respects with the July 24, 2013 CIDs on or before September 13, 2013. By the Commission.

AEGIS MOBILE LLC FTC File No. 132 3247. Order, October 24, 2013. ORDER STAYING PETITION TO QUASH PROCEEDINGS On September 24, 2013, Petitioner, Aegis Mobile, LLC (“Aegis”) filed a petition to quash a civil investigative demand (“CID”) issued by the Commission to Aegis in response to a request by the Competition Bureau Canada (“Competition Bureau”) for investigative assistance.1 The CID requested materials needed by the Competition Bureau in connection with its enforcement litigation in Canada against Bell Canada, Rogers Communications Inc., Telus Corporation, and the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (collectively, the “Canadian Companies”). In the Canadian proceeding, currently pending in Ontario Superior Court, the Competition Bureau alleges that the Canadian Companies engaged in the deceptive marketing of premium text messaging and digital content services. The FTC’s CID in aid of the Canadian proceedings sought materials from Aegis regarding the marketing of premium text messages and rich content in Canada, as well as Aegis’s work for and on behalf of the Canadian Companies. The Commission issued the CID pursuant to its authority under Section 6(j) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (“FTC 1 Pursuant to Section 2.10(5)(b) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice, 16 C.F.R. § 2.10(5)(b), the timely filing of a petition to quash a CID stays the remaining period of time permitted for compliance. VOLUME 156 Responses to Petitions to Quash Act”), which was added to the FTC Act by the U.S. SAFE WEB Act of 2006.2 Specifically, the statute authorizes the Commission to assist foreign law enforcement agencies in their investigations of, or enforcement proceedings against, “possible violations of laws prohibiting fraudulent or deceptive commercial practices, or other practices substantially similar to practices prohibited by any provision of the laws administered by the Commission.” 15 U.S.C. § 46(j). Section 6(j) gives the Commission two routes to provide such assistance. Under Section 6(j)(2)(A), the Commission may “conduct such investigation as the Commission deems necessary to collect information and evidence pertinent to the request for assistance, using all investigative powers authorized by [the FTC Act]; . . .” 15 U.S.C. § 46(j)(2)(A). Under Section 6(j)(2)(B),the Commission may also – “when the request is from an agency acting to investigate or pursue the enforcement of civil laws” – “seek and accept appointment by a United States district court of Commission attorneys to provide assistance to foreign and international tribunals and to litigants before such tribunals on behalf of a foreign law enforcement agency pursuant to section 1782 of Title 28.” 15 U.S.C. § 46(j)(2)(B).

Due to the recent interruption in U.S. government operations, considerable time has elapsed since the Commission received the request for assistance in obtaining access to materials that are highly relevant to the Competition Bureau’s pending litigation in Canada. Accordingly, the Commission finds that greater expedition is warranted and, therefore, has determined to stay the instant petition to quash proceedings while it exercises its authority under Section 6(j)(2)(B) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 46(j)(2)(B), to institute a proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 1782. In that proceeding, the Commission will seek an appointment of Commission attorneys by the United States District Court for the District of Maryland to obtain information needed by the Competition Bureau for use in the Canadian enforcement proceedings.3 In staying the instant proceedings, the Commission expresses no views on the substantive issues raised by Aegis’s petition to quash. Accordingly, 2 Pub. L. No. 109-455, 120 Stat. 3372 (2006). 3 Aegis’s obligation to comply with the Commission’s CID shall remain stayed pending disposition of the petition to quash. See supra note 1. HEALTHYLIFE SCIENCES, LLC 647 Responses to Petitions to Quash IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT consideration of the Petition of Aegis Mobile, LLC is STAYED pending the federal courts’ disposition of an application by the Commission pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1782.

HEALTHYLIFE SCIENCES, LLC FTC File No. 122 3287. Order, December20, 2013. OPINION AND ORDER DENYING PETITION TO LIMIT CIVIL INVESTIGATIVE DEMAND By WRIGHT, Commissioner.

On November 22, 2013, petitioner Healthylife Sciences, LLC (“HLS”) filed a petition to limit a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) issued by the Commission in connection with its investigation of certain HLS products and policies. For the reasons stated below, the Commission denies the petition. I. BACKGROUND Through a variety of advertising and marketing platforms, HLS claims that its “Healthe Trim” brand dietary supplements help users lose weight. In response to these claims and other marketing practices, the Commission’s Division of Advertising Practices opened an investigation to determine whether HLS may have violated Sections 5 and 12 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 45 and 52.

On October 30, 2013, as part of this investigation, the Commission issued a CID seeking materials relating to Healthe Trim products (“Specified Products”), including Healthe Trim VOLUME 156 Responses to Petitions to Quash Original Formula (“Original Formula”) and three derivative products.1 The CID seeks information and materials relating to HLS and its products, including copies of advertisements and HLS’s substantiation for its weight-loss claims. The CID also seeks copies of any documents reflecting relevant communications between HLS and regulatory authorities or consumer protection entities, including the Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Postal Service, the Better Business Bureau, and the National Advertising Division (“NAD”), which is one of four self-regulatory advertising programs administered by the Council of Better Business Bureaus. The CID directed HLS to produce the responsive materials and information by November 25, 2013.

On November 21, 2013, counsel for HLS sent a letter to FTC staff regarding Original Formula’s inclusion in the CID’s definition of “Specified Products.” HLS sought to exclude Original Formula from the scope of the CID because HLS had already produced some responsive documents to the NAD in response to that organization’s own review of HLS’s substantiation for the weight-loss claims for Original Formula. 2 HLS argued that requiring it to produce these documents to the FTC as well would impose an undue burden. FTC staff and HLS counsel were unable to resolve the dispute. The following day, HLS filed this Petition to Limit Civil Investigative Demand 1 Instruction O defines “Specified Products” as “all Healthe Trim dietary supplements promoted for weight loss, including but not limited to Healthe Trim Original Formula, Healthe Trim powered by Raspberry Ketone, Healthe Trim powered by Green Coffee Bean, and Healthe Trim powered by Garcinia Cambogia.”

2 That review had begun in July 2012, after the NAD received a letter from the Council for Responsible Nutrition challenging thirteen claims appearing in HLS’s advertising. Participation in an NAD inquiry is voluntary, and advertisers may decide whether they wish to comply with the NAD’s recommendations to discontinue advertising claims. If an advertiser refuses to participate in the NAD process (i.e., if it does not respond to the NAD’s request to produce substantiation for advertising claims), or declines to follow the recommendations of the NAD, the advertiser may be referred to the appropriate government agency (generally the FTC) for consideration of further action. See Policies and Procedures by the Advertising Self-Regulatory Council (as amended Sept. 24, 2012) ¶¶ 2.10(B) and 4.1(B), available at http://www.asrcreviews.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/NAD-CARU-NARB- Procedures-Updated-10-9-12.pdf.

HEALTHYLIFE SCIENCES, LLC 649 Responses to Petitions to Quash (“Petition”), asking the Commission to exclude Original Formula from that definition. (Pet. at 1).

II. ANALYSIS HLS principally contends that compliance with the CID would be unduly burdensome because HLS previously submitted some of the materials regarding Original Formula to the NAD in connection with NAD’s ongoing inquiry. (Pet. at 3-5). That assertion lacks merit.

As a preliminary matter, HLS has not met its evidentiary burden in seeking to limit the CID because it has not provided any affidavits or other evidence that would establish that producing these materials would unduly disrupt or seriously hinder its normal operations. See, e.g., FTC v. Invention Submission Corp., 965 F.2d 1086, 1090 (D.C. Cir. 1992); FTC v. Texaco, Inc., 555 F.2d 862, 882 (D.C. Cir. 1977). Indeed, one would expect that producing materials that HLS has already largely compiled for the NAD proceedings would involve minimal additional effort. In addition, HLS’s petition rests on a false premise: that an NAD investigation into deceptive advertising somehow obviates the need for an FTC investigation. In fact, an FTC investigation is typically broader in its substantive scope. For example, FTC staff will consider a marketer’s entire advertising campaign in multiple media channels over a long period, whereas the NAD usually examines only selected components of a marketer’s advertising. Moreover, as shown by the CID’s specifications, FTC staff is examining a wide variety of issues that NAD did not fully study, such as HLS’s continuity programs, its “free” trial offers, and its material connections with endorsers. Also, the CID seeks information and materials relating to a broader set of remedies, such as consumer redress, that FTC staff may want to consider after completing its review of HLS’s practices. In any event, even were the NAD and FTC investigations identical in scope, an advertiser’s participation in a parallel selfregulatory program cannot limit an FTC inquiry. To be sure, the NAD is an important partner in protecting American consumers from deceptive advertising. As the Commission has noted, it VOLUME 156 Responses to Petitions to Quash “will not necessarily defer, however, to a finding by a selfregulation group,” and instead must discharge its responsibilities by “mak[ing] its judgment independently, evaluating each case on its merits.” Policy Statement Regarding Advertising Substantiation (appended to Thompson Med. Co., 104 F.T.C. 648, 839 (1984), aff’d, 791 F.2d 189 (D.C. Cir. 1986), cert. denied, 479 U.S. 1086 (1987)).3 III. CONCLUSION AND ORDER For the foregoing reasons, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the Petition to Limit Civil Investigative Demand filed by Healthylife Sciences, LLC be, and it hereby is, DENIED; and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT all responses to the specifications in the Civil Investigative Demand to Healthylife Sciences, LLC, must be produced on or before January 17, 2014. By the Commission.

HLS contends that compliance with the CID, to the extent it overlaps with the NAD’s inquiry, would “significantly reduce[] the motivation and incentive for companies to participate in the NAD selfregulatory process in the first place.” (Pet. at 5). We disagree. The risk of public exposure and referral to authorities should provide ample incentive for advertisers to cooperate with the NAD.
