Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 15, 2011, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. (“VPII”) (as guarantor only) and its subsidiaries, Valeant International (Barbados) SRL (“VIB”) and Valeant Pharmaceuticals North America LLC (together with VIB, “we” or the “Purchasers”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire certain assets and rights relating to the Ortho Dermatologics Division of Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Ortho”), a unit of Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Janssen”), in the United States.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, at the closing of the transaction (the “Closing”), we will pay Janssen an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $345 million, subject to certain adjustments relating to the level of inventory on hand at Closing.
Conditions
The Closing is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among others, the parties having obtained antitrust clearance in the United States. Each party’s obligation to close is also subject to the continued accuracy of the representations and warranties made (except, in most cases, as would not have a material adverse effect) and material compliance with the covenants agreed to by the other party to the Agreement. Furthermore, each party’s obligation to close is subject to the absence of certain legal restraints on the transaction.
Representations and Warranties; Covenants
The Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants including, among others, a covenant by Janssen to conduct the business of Ortho in the ordinary course until the Closing; non-competition arrangements with Janssen, whereby, Janssen shall not directly compete with the products being sold in certain respects in the dermatological field in the United States for a specified period after the Closing; and customary indemnification obligations.
Termination
The Agreement may be terminated by the Purchasers or Janssen on customary terms, including if the Closing has not occurred by December 23, 2011.
