IN THE MATTER OF TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES LTD.

CONSENT ORDER, ETC., IN REGARD TO ALLEGED VIOLATIONS OF SEC. 7 OF THE CLAYTON ACT AND SEC. 5 OF THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ACT Docket C-4155; File No. 051 0214 Complaint, January 20, 2006--Decision, March 2, 2006 This consent order addresses the acquisition of IVAX Corporation (“IVAX”) by Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”), which would make Teva the world’s largest generic pharmaceutical supplier and would lessen competition in the U.S. markets for the manufacture and sale of certain generic pharmaceutical products. The order requires the respondents to divest rights and assets related to the relevant products to Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc. and Barr Pharmaceuticals, Inc. or to other Commission-approved acquirers. To ensure that the divestitures are successful, Teva and IVAX are required to provide transitional services to enable the acquirers to obtain all necessary approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration until the acquirers are able to manufacture and sell all formulations and dosages of the products independently. These transitional services include technology transfer assistance to manufacture the products in substantially the same manner and quality employed or achieved by Teva and IVAX. Furthermore, Teva and IVAX are required to supply the acquirers until they receive approval to manufacture the products on their own. The Commission will select an Interim Monitor to monitor respondents’ compliance with the order, and if necessary, the Commission may appoint a Divestiture Trustee to assign, grant, license, divest, transfer, deliver or otherwise convey the relevant assets. Participants For the Commission: Jeffrey W. Brennan, Sylvia M. Brooks, Richard H. Cunningham, Daniel P. Ducore, Leslie Farber, Mark Frankena, Andrew P. Konove, Stephanie A. Parks, Thomas D. Mays, Michael R. Moiseyev, Christine Naglieri, David A. von Nirschl, David Schmidt, and Kari A. Wallace.

For the Respondent: William H. Rooney and Theodore C. Whitehouse, Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP; and Brian R. Dunlap and Richard Liebeskind, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP.

IV. THE RELEVANT MARKETS 9. For the purposes of this Complaint, the relevant lines of commerce in which to analyze the effects of the Acquisition are the manufacture and sale of the following generic pharmaceutical products:

a. Amoxicillin clavulanate potassium; b. Cefaclor LA tablets;

c. Pergolide mesylate tablets;

VOLUME 141 Complaint d. Estazolam tablets;

e. Leuprolide acetate injection kits; f. Nabumetone tablets;

g. Amoxicillin;

h. Propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules; i. Nicardipine hydrochloride capsules; j. Flutamide capsules;

k. Clozapine tablets;

l. Tramadol/Acetaminophen tablets;

m. Glipizide & metformin hydrochloride tablets; n. Calcitriol injectables; and o. Cabergoline tablets.

10. For the purposes of this Complaint, the United States is the relevant geographic area in which to analyze the effects of the Acquisition in the relevant lines of commerce. V. THE STRUCTURE OF THE MARKETS 11. Amoxicillin clavulanate potassium (“amox/clav”) is a commonly-prescribed penicillin antibiotic used to treat infections. Currently, Teva, IVAX, Sandoz Inc. (“Sandoz”), and Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Ranbaxy”) are the only suppliers of various formulations of generic amox/clav in the United States. Teva and IVAX, however, are the only suppliers of the 600 mg powder formulation of generic amox/clav. The Acquisition would leave only TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES LTD. 5 Complaint Teva, Sandoz, and Ranbaxy in the generic amox/clav market, and increase Teva’s market share in all formulations to over 50 percent. The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (“HHI”) would increase by 1,360 points, resulting in a post-acquisition HHI of 4,438 points. 12. Teva dominates the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic cefaclor LA tablets, with a share of over 65 percent. Cefaclor LA tablets are cephalosporin antibiotics. The only other supplier of this product is IVAX. The Acquisition would create a monopoly in this market, and increase the HHI concentration by 4,422 points, resulting in a post-acquisition HHI of 10,000 points. 13. The market for the manufacture and sale of generic pergolide mesylate tablets is highly concentrated, with a pre-acquisition HHI of 6,568 points. Pergolide mesylate tablets are used to treat Parkinson’s disease. Only Teva and IVAX offer this product in the United States. The Acquisition would create a monopoly in this market and increase the HHI concentration by 3,432 points, resulting in a post-acquisition HHI of 10,000 points. 14. Teva is the leading supplier in the market for the manufacture and sale of generic estazolam tablets in the United States, with 52 percent of the market. Estazolam tablets are used to treat seizure disorders. IVAX and Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are the only other suppliers of this product. The Acquisition would create a duopoly, with Teva accounting for approximately 65 percent of the generic estazolam tablet market. The HHI would increase by 1,352 points to a post-acquisition HHI of 5,450 points. 15. Leuprolide acetate is an injectable drug used to treat prostate cancer. Teva is the leading supplier in the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic leuprolide acetate. IVAX and Sandoz are the only other suppliers of this product. The Acquisition would create a duopoly, with Teva accounting for over 50 percent of the market. The HHI would increase 100 points to a postacquisition HHI of 5,002 points.

VOLUME 141 Complaint 16. Teva is the leading supplier in the market for the manufacture and sale of generic nabumetone tablets, with a share of over 60 percent. Nabumetone tablets are used to treat inflammation. IVAX and Sandoz are the only other suppliers of generic nabumetone tablets in the United States. The Acquisition would create a duopoly in this market, and increase the HHI concentration by 360 points, resulting in a post-acquisition HHI of 5,338 points. 17. Teva dominates the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic amoxicillin. Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic used to treat infections. Teva, IVAX, Ranbaxy, Stada Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and Sandoz are the only suppliers of various formulations of generic amoxicillin in the United States. Teva, IVAX, and Ranbaxy, however, are the only suppliers of the 200 mg and 400 mg oral suspensions and the 875 mg tablet formulations of the drug. The Acquisition would increase Teva’s market share in the amoxicillin formulations to over 55 percent, and increase the HHI concentration by 110 points, resulting in a post-acquisition HHI of 4,094 points. 18. The market for the manufacture and sale of generic propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules in the United States is highly concentrated, with a pre-acquisition HHI of 4,696 points. Propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules are analgesics used to relieve severe pain. Currently, Teva, IVAX, Mylan Pharmaceuticals (“Mylan”), and Qualitest Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Qualitest”) are the only suppliers in this market. After the Acquisition, Mylan and Qualitest would be the only competitors to Teva in this market, and the HHI concentration would increase by 663 points to a postacquisition HHI of 5,359 points.

19. The market for the manufacture and sale of generic nicardipine hydrochloride capsules is highly concentrated. Nicardipine hydrochloride capsules are used to treat heart conditions. Teva, IVAX, Mylan, and Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc. (“Par”) are the only suppliers of this product in the United States. After the Acquisition, Mylan and Par would be the TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES LTD. 7 Complaint only competitors to Teva in this market, and the HHI would increase by 216 points to a post-acquisition HHI of 3,592 points. 20. Teva and IVAX are the two leading suppliers of generic flutamide capsules in the United States, with 26 percent and 36 percent of the market, respectively. Flutamide capsules are used to treat cancer. Currently, Sandoz and Barr Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Barr”) are the only other suppliers of this product. After the Acquisition, Teva would control over 60 percent of the generic flutamide capsule market, and Sandoz and Barr would be the only remaining competitors to Teva. The HHI would increase 1,015 points to a post-acquisition HHI of 3,702 points. 21. IVAX, Mylan, and Caraco Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (“Caraco”) are the only suppliers in the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic clozapine tablets. Clozapine tablets are used to treat psychotic and maniac disorders. Teva has FDA approval to sell this drug, and has recently begun offering it to customers. In the absence of its pending acquisition of IVAX,Teva would have offered lower prices to attract customers and ultimately caused the market price of generic clozapine tablets to decrease. The Acquisition would leave only the combined Teva/IVAX entity, Mylan, and Caraco as suppliers in this market.

22. Par, IVAX, and Caraco are currently the only suppliers in the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic tramadol/acetaminophen (“tramadol/apap”) tablets. Tramadol/apap tablets are analgesics used to treat severe pain. Caraco only recently received FDA approval to sell this drug, and has begun offering it to customers. Teva is in the process of entering this market and is the only other supplier capable of entering this market in a timely manner. The Acquisition would eliminate Teva’s planned entry into the generic tramadol/apap tablet market. 23. The market for the manufacture and sale of generic glipizide & metformin hydrochloride tablets is highly concentrated. Glipizide & metformin tablets are blood glucose regulators used to treat type II diabetes. Currently, Teva and Sandoz are the only suppliers of this VOLUME 141 Complaint product in the United States. IVAX is in the process of entering this market and is one of a limited number of suppliers capable of entering this market in a timely manner. The Acquisition would eliminate IVAX’s planned entry into the generic glipizide & metformin tablet market.

24. Calcitriol is an injectable form of vitamin D that is used in dialysis patients. Teva and American Pharmaceutical Partners, Inc. are the only suppliers in the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic calcitriol. IVAX (through a distribution agreement with Genix Therapeutics, Inc.) is in the process of entering this market as a distributor of the Genix product and is the only supplier capable of entering this market in a timely manner. The Acquisition would eliminate IVAX’s potential entry into the generic calcitriol market.

25. Cabergoline tablets are used to treat Parkinson’s disease. The patent for the branded version of the drug expired in December 2005. Teva and IVAX are in the process of entering this market and are two of a limited number of suppliers who are capable of entering the future market for generic cabergoline tablets. VI. ENTRY CONDITIONS 26. Entry into each of the relevant product markets described in Paragraph 9 would not be timely, likely, or sufficient in its magnitude, character, and scope to deter or counteract the anticompetitive effects of the Acquisition. Developing and obtaining FDA approval for the manufacture and sale of these products takes at least two years due to substantial regulatory, technological, and intellectual property barriers.

VII. EFFECTS OF THE ACQUISITION 27. The effects of the Acquisition, if consummated, may be to substantially lessen competition and to tend to create a monopoly in the relevant markets in violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES LTD. 9 Complaint 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 Teva and IVAX, and reducing the number of competitors, in the markets for the manufacture and sale of generic amox/clav, cefaclor LA tablets, pergolide mesylate tablets, estazolam tablets, leuprolide acetate injection kits, nabumetone tablets, amoxicillin, propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules, nicardipine hydrochloride capsules, flutamide capsules, and clozapine tablets thereby: (1) increasing the likelihood that Teva will be able to unilaterally exercise market power in these markets, (2) increasing the likelihood and degree of coordinated interaction between or among competitors, and (3) increasing the likelihood that customers would be forced to pay higher prices; b. by eliminating potential competition between Teva and IVAX in the markets for the manufacture and sale of generic tramadol/apap tablets, glipizide & metformin hydrochloride tablets, and calcitriol injectables, thereby: (1) increasing the likelihood that the combined entity would forego or delay the launch of Teva’s tramadol/apap product, and IVAX’s glipizide & metformin and calcitriol products, and (2) increasing the likelihood that the combined entity would delay or eliminate the significant additional price competition that would have resulted from Teva’s independent entry into the market for generic tramadol/apap, and IVAX’s independent entry into the markets for generic glipizide & metformin and generic calcitriol; and c. by eliminating potential competition between Teva and IVAX in the future market for the manufacture and sale of generic cabergoline tablets, thereby: (1) increasing the likelihood that the combined entity would forego or delay the launch of IVAX’s cabergoline product, and (2) VOLUME 141 Complaint increasing the likelihood that the combined entity would delay or eliminate the substantial additional price competition that would have resulted from IVAX’s independent entry into the future market for generic cabergoline.

VIII. VIOLATIONS CHARGED 28. The Merger Agreement described in Paragraph 8 constitutes a violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45. 29. The Acquisition described in Paragraph 8, 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 twentieth day of January, 2006, issues its Complaint against said Respondents.

By the Commission.

By the Commission.

VOLUME 141 Order to Maintain Assets APPENDIX A TO THE ORDER TO MAINTAIN ASSETS PUBLIC AGREEMENT CONTAINING CONSENT ORDER AND PROPOSED DECISION AND ORDER TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES, LTD. 107 Analysis to Aid Public Comment Analysis of Agreement Containing Consent Orders to Aid Public Comment The Federal Trade Commission (“Commission”) has accepted, subject to final approval, an Agreement Containing Consent Orders (“Consent Agreement”) from Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”) and IVAX Corporation (“IVAX”), which is designed to remedy the anticompetitive effects of the acquisition of IVAX by Teva. Under the terms of the proposed Consent Agreement, the companies would be required to: (1) assign the IVAX rights and assets necessary to market generic amoxicillin clavulanate potassium (“amox/clav”) to Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc. (“Par”); (2) divest the IVAX rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic long-acting cefaclor (“cefaclor LA”) tablets to Par; (3) divest the Teva rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic pergolide mesylate tablets to Par; (4) divest the IVAX rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic estazolam tablets to Par; (5) assign the IVAX rights and assets necessary to market generic leuprolide acetate injection kits to Par; (6) divest the IVAX rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic nabumetone tablets to Par; (7) assign the IVAX rights and assets necessary to market generic amoxicillin to Par; (8) divest the IVAX rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules to Par; (9) divest the IVAX rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic nicardipine hydrochloride capsules to Barr Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Barr”); (10) divest the Teva rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic flutamide capsules to Par; (11) divest the Teva rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic clozapine tablets to Par; (12) divest the Teva assets necessary to manufacture and market generic tramadol/acetaminophen (“tramadol/apap”) tablets to Barr; (13) divest the IVAX rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic glipizide and metformin hydrochloride tablets to Barr; (14) assign the IVAX rights and assets necessary to market generic calcitriol injectables to Par; and (15) divest the Teva rights and assets necessary to manufacture and market generic cabergoline tablets to Barr.

VOLUME 141 Analysis to Aid Public Comment The proposed Consent Agreement has been placed on the public record for thirty (30) days for receipt of comments by interested persons. Comments received during this period will become part of the public record. After thirty (30) days, the Commission will again review the proposed Consent Agreement and the comments received, and will decide whether it should withdraw from the proposed Consent Agreement, modify it, or make final the Decision and Order (“Order”).

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 25, 2005, Teva proposes to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of IVAX in a transaction valued at approximately $7.4 billion. The Commission’s Complaint alleges that the proposed acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45, by lessening competition in the U.S. markets for the manufacture and sale of the following generic pharmaceutical products: (1) amox/clav; (2) cefaclor LA tablets; (3) pergolide mesylate tablets; (4) estazolam tablets; (5) leuprolide acetate injection kits; (6) nabumetone tablets; (7) amoxicillin; (8) propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules; (9) nicardipine hydrochloride capsules; (10) flutamide capsules; (11) clozapine tablets; (12) tramadol/apap tablets; (13) glipizide and metformin hydrochloride tablets; (14) calcitriol injectables; and (15) cabergoline tablets (the “Products”). The proposed Consent Agreement will remedy the alleged violations by replacing the lost competition that would result from the acquisition in each of these markets.

The Products and Structure of the Markets The proposed acquisition of IVAX by Teva would make Teva the world’s largest generic pharmaceutical supplier. The companies overlap in a number of generic pharmaceutical markets, and if consummated, the transaction likely would lead to anticompetitive effects in fifteen of these markets.

TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES, LTD. 109 Analysis to Aid Public Comment The transaction would reduce the number of competing generic suppliers in the overlap markets. The number of generic suppliers has a direct and substantial effect on generic pricing as each additional generic supplier can have a competitive impact on the market. Because there are multiple generic equivalents for each of the products at issue here, the branded versions no longer significantly constrain the generics' pricing. In markets for generic pharmaceuticals, a customer often can prevent a price increase either by forcing the incumbent supplier to meet the lower bid of a competitor or by switching to the competitor's product. Therefore, competitors with sufficient capacity, notwithstanding a relatively small current market share, can constrain the price for the generic product and can have a significant competitive impact.

For eleven generic products, Teva and IVAX currently are two of a small number of suppliers offering the product. In each of these markets, there are a limited number of competitors, and in several, Teva and IVAX are the only generic suppliers. • Amox/clav is a penicillin antibiotic used to treat infections. Annual sales of generic amox/clav are approximately $676 million. Currently, Teva, IVAX, Sandoz Inc. (“Sandoz”), and Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Ranbaxy”) are the only suppliers of various formulations of generic amox/clav in the United States. Teva has approximately 40 percent of the market, while IVAX has 17 percent. Teva and IVAX, however, are the only suppliers of the 600 mg powder formulation of generic amox/clav. The acquisition would leave only Teva, Sandoz, and Ranbaxy in the generic amox/clav market, and increase Teva’s market share in all formulations to over 50 percent.

• In the cefaclor LA tablet and pergolide mesylate tablet markets, Teva and IVAX are the only generic suppliers of these products in the United States. The acquisition would eliminate IVAX as a competitor, create a monopoly in each VOLUME 141 Analysis to Aid Public Comment of these markets, and almost certainly result in higher prices for consumers. Cefaclor LA tablets are cephalosporin antibiotics. Annual sales of generic cefaclor LA tablets are approximately $2.4 million. Pergolide mesylate tablets are used to treat Parkinson’s disease. Annual sales of generic pergolide mesylate tablets are $19.3 million. • Estazolam tablets are used to treat seizure disorders. Annual sales of generic estazolam tablets are approximately $2.7 million. Teva, IVAX, and Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are the only suppliers of generic estazolam tablets in the United States. Teva and IVAX have 52 percent and 13 percent of the market, respectively.

• Leuprolide acetate is an injectable drug used to treat prostate cancer. Annual sales of generic leuprolide acetate are $6.2 million. Teva is the leading supplier in this market, accounting for 50 percent of the market. IVAX and Sandoz are the only other suppliers of this product. • Nabumetone tablets are used to treat inflammation. In 2004, total sales of generic nabumetone tablets were $100 million. Teva is the leading supplier of generic nabumetone tablets in the United States, accounting for over 60 percent of the market. IVAX and Sandoz are the only other suppliers of this product.

• Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic used to treat infections. Teva is the leading supplier in the $143 million market for generic amoxicillin in the United States, with a share of 55 percent. Teva, IVAX, Ranbaxy, Stada Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Stada”), and Sandoz are the only suppliers of various formulations of generic amoxicillin. Teva, IVAX, and Ranbaxy, however, are the only suppliers of the 200 mg and 400 mg oral suspensions, and the 875 mg tablet formulations of the drug.

TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES, LTD. 111 Analysis to Aid Public Comment • Propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules are analgesics used to relieve severe pain. Annual sales of generic propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules are approximately $8.3 million. Currently, Teva, IVAX, Mylan Pharmaceuticals (“Mylan”), and Qualitest Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are the only suppliers in this market in the United States.

• Nicardipine hydrochloride capsules are used to treat heart conditions. In 2004, total U.S. sales of generic nicardipine hydrochloride capsules were approximately $674,000. Teva, IVAX, Mylan, and Par are the only generic suppliers in this market.

• Flutamide capsules are used to treat cancer. In 2004, total sales for generic flutamide capsules were approximately $11 million. Teva and IVAX are the leading suppliers in this market, with 26 percent and 36 percent of the market, respectively. Sandoz and Barr are the only other suppliers of this product in the United States.

• Clozapine tablets are used to treat psychotic and maniac disorders. IVAX, Mylan, and Caraco Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (“Caraco”) are the only suppliers in the $89.6 million U.S. market for generic clozapine tablets. Teva has FDA approval to sell this drug, and has recently begun offering it to some customers. In the absence of its pending acquisition of IVAX, Teva would have offered lower prices to attract customers and ultimately caused the market price of generic clozapine tablets to decrease. The acquisition would leave only the combined Teva/IVAX entity, Mylan, and Caraco as suppliers in this market.

In four product markets, both Teva and IVAX have generic products either on the market or in development. Furthermore, there are few firms that are capable of, and interested in, entering these markets. As a result, the proposed acquisition would eliminate important future competition in these markets. VOLUME 141 Analysis to Aid Public Comment • Tramadol/apap tablets are analgesics used to treat severe pain. Annual sales of generic tramadol/apap tablets are approximately $38 million. Currently, Par, IVAX, and Caraco are the only suppliers in this market. Caraco only recently received FDA approval to sell this drug, and has begun offering it to customers. Teva is the only other supplier capable of entering this market in a timely manner. The acquisition would eliminate Teva’s planned independent entry into the generic tramadol/apap tablet market. • Teva and Sandoz currently are the only suppliers of generic glipizide and metformin hydrochloride tablets, blood glucose regulators used to treat type II diabetes. IVAX is one of a limited number of suppliers capable of entering this market in a timely manner. The acquisition would eliminate IVAX’s entry into the generic glipizide and metformin hydrochloride tablet market.

• Calcitriol is an injectable form of vitamin D that is used in dialysis patients. Annual U.S. sales of generic calcitriol total approximately $8.3 million. Teva and American Pharmaceutical Partners, Inc., are the only suppliers in the U.S. market for the manufacture and sale of generic calcitriol. IVAX (through a distribution agreement with Genix Therapeutics, Inc.) is the only supplier capable of entering this market in a timely manner. The acquisition would eliminate IVAX’s entry into the generic calcitriol market.

• Cabergoline tablets are used to treat Parkinson’s disease. The branded product, Dostinex, is manufactured and sold by Pfizer, Inc. The patent for Dostinex expired in December 2005. Teva and IVAX are two of a limited number of suppliers who are capable of entering the future market for generic cabergoline tablets.

TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES, LTD. 113 Analysis to Aid Public Comment Entry Entry into the markets for the manufacture and sale of the Products would not be timely, likely or sufficient in its magnitude, character, and scope to deter or counteract the anticompetitive effects of the acquisition. Developing and obtaining FDA approval for the manufacture and sale of the Products takes at least two (2) years due to substantial regulatory, technological, and intellectual property barriers. Furthermore, several of the markets at issue are small and declining, making it unlikely that new entry would occur even if prices were to increase by a small but significant amount. Effects The proposed acquisition would cause significant anticompetitive harm to consumers in the U.S. markets for the manufacture and sale of generic amox/clav, cefaclor LA tablets, pergolide mesylate tablets, estazolam tablets, leuprolide acetate injection kits, nabumetone tablets, amoxicillin, propoxyphene hydrochloride capsules, nicardipine hydrochloride capsules, flutamide capsules, and clozapine tablets by eliminating actual, direct, and substantial competition between Teva and IVAX, by increasing the likelihood that Teva will be able unilaterally to exercise market power, by increasing the likelihood and degree of coordinated interaction between or among competitors, and increasing the likelihood that customers will pay higher prices. In these markets, the evidence shows that consumers have obtained lower prices due to the competitive rivalry that exists between market participants. The evidence also shows that as new rivals have entered the markets, consumers have obtained lower prices. The acquisition would cause significant anticompetitive harm to consumers in the U.S. markets for generic tramadol/apap tablets, glipizide and metformin hydrochloride tablets, calcitriol injectables, and cabergoline tablets by eliminating future competition between Teva and IVAX.

VOLUME 141 Analysis to Aid Public Comment The Consent Agreement The proposed Consent Agreement effectively remedies the proposed acquisition’s anticompetitive effects in the relevant product markets. Pursuant to the Consent Agreement, Teva and IVAX are required to divest rights and assets related to the relevant products to a Commission-approved acquirer no later than ten (10) days after the acquisition. Specifically, Teva is required to divest all of the rights and assets related to its pergolide mesylate tablet, flutamide capsule, and clozapine tablet products to Par, and all of the rights and assets related to its cabergoline tablet and tramadol/apap tablet products to Barr. Teva is required to divest all of the rights and assets related to IVAX’s cefaclor LA tablet, estazolam tablet, nabumetone tablet, and propoxyphene hydrochloride capsule products to Par, and all of the rights and assets related to IVAX’s nicardipine hydrochloride capsule and glipizide and metformin hydrochloride tablet products to Barr. Furthermore, pursuant to the Consent Agreement, Teva is required to assign the rights to IVAX’s third party distribution agreements covering amoxicillin, amox/clav, leuprolide acetate injection kit, and calcitriol injectable products to Par. The acquirers of the divested assets must receive the prior approval of the Commission. The Commission’s goal in evaluating possible purchasers of divested assets is to maintain the competitive environment that existed prior to the acquisition. A proposed acquirer of divested assets must not itself present competitive problems.

Par, a reputable generic manufacturer, is particularly wellpositioned to manufacture and market its acquired products and compete effectively in those markets. Par is the fifth largest generic pharmaceutical company in the United States, with substantial experience in manufacturing, distributing, and marketing generic pharmaceutical products. Par has approximately 187 separate products representing various dosage strengths for over 90 drugs. Moreover, Par will not present competitive problems in any of the TEVA PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES, LTD. 115 Analysis to Aid Public Comment markets in which it will acquire a divested asset because it currently does not compete in those markets. With its resources, capabilities, good reputation, and experience marketing generic products, Par is well-positioned to replicate the competition that would be lost with the proposed acquisition.

Barr, a reputable generic manufacturer, is also particularly wellpositioned to manufacture and market its acquired products and compete effectively in those markets. Barr is an established U.S. pharmaceutical company that manufactures and markets over 100 different dosage forms and strengths of over 70 different generic pharmaceutical products. Barr has extensive manufacturing, marketing, and sales expertise in U.S. generic pharmaceutical markets, and significant experience transferring assets from other pharmaceutical companies. Barr will not present competitive problems in any of the markets in which it will acquire a divested asset because it currently does not compete in those markets. With its resources, capabilities, good reputation, and experience marketing generic products, Barr should be successful in restoring the competition that would be lost if the proposed Teva/IVAX transaction were to proceed unremedied. If the Commission determines that either Par or Barr is not an acceptable purchaser, or that the manner of the divestiture is not acceptable, the parties must unwind the sale and divest the Products within six (6) months of the date the Order becomes final to another Commission-approved acquirer. If the parties fail to divest within six (6) months, the Commission may appoint a trustee to divest the Product assets.

The proposed remedy contains several provisions to ensure that the divestitures are successful. The Order requires Teva and IVAX to provide transitional services to enable the Commission-approved acquirers to obtain all of the necessary approvals from the FDA until the acquirers are able to manufacture and sell all formulations and dosages of the Products independently. These transitional services include technology transfer assistance to manufacture the Products in substantially the same manner and quality employed or achieved VOLUME 141 Analysis to Aid Public Comment by Teva and IVAX. Furthermore, Teva and IVAX are required to supply the acquirers until they receive approval to manufacture the Products on their own The Commission has appointed R. Owen Richards of Quantic Regulatory Services, LLC (“Quantic”) to oversee the asset transfer and to ensure Teva and IVAX’s compliance with all of the provisions of the proposed Consent Agreement. Mr. Richards is President of Quantic and has several years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. He is a highly-qualified expert on FDA regulatory matters and currently advises Quantic clients on achieving satisfactory regulatory compliance and interfacing with the FDA. In order to ensure that the Commission remains informed about the status of the proposed divestitures and the transfers of assets, the proposed Consent Agreement requires Teva and IVAX to file reports with the Commission periodically until the divestitures and transfers are accomplished.
