Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On January 14, 2014, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) issued U.S. patent number 8,629,111 (the “‘111 Patent”), which covers the specific formulation of Allergan, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Restasis^® (cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion) 0.05% product. The Company has submitted the ‘111 Patent for listing in the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) publication Approved Drug Products With Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, commonly known as the Orange Book. The ‘111 Patent will expire in August 2024.

In addition, on or about January 15, 2014, the Company plans to submit a Citizen Petition to the FDA regarding the FDA’s published draft guidance that proposes certain approaches for demonstrating bioequivalence in abbreviated new drug applications referring to the new drug application related to the Restasis^® product.

This report contains “forward-looking statements,” including the statements related to U.S. patent number 8,629,111 and the Citizen Petition. These statements are based on current expectations of future events. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from the Company’s expectations and projections. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of the action, or inaction, of the USPTO or the FDA, and risks and uncertainties associated with the timing of governmental actions and the protection of the Company’s intellectual property rights. The Company expressly disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements except as required by law. Additional information concerning these and other risks can be found in press releases issued by the Company, as well as the Company’s public filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including the discussion under the heading “Risk Factors” in Allergan’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
