Unsecured Notes Offering

On December 4, 2017, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it has launched and priced an offering of $1,500 million aggregate principal amount of its 9.000% unsecured senior notes due 2025 (the “notes”). The aggregate size of the offering reflects an increase of $500 million from the previously announced offering size. The offering price for the notes was 98.611%. The notes will be offered in the United States to qualified institutional investors pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The Company also issued press releases pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act relating to the offering and pricing of the notes. In accordance with Rule 135c(d) under the Securities Act, copies of the press releases are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.

The foregoing is qualified by reference to the press releases that are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

This Current Report on Form 8-K or the press releases attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, do not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. These securities will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the public by prospectus under applicable Canadian securities laws and, accordingly, any offer and sale of the securities in Canada will be made on a basis which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of such securities laws.
