CANADA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
As a high-tech industrial
society in the trillion-dollar class, Canada resembles the US in its
market-oriented economic system, pattern of production, and high living
standards. Since World War II, the impressive growth of the manufacturing,
mining, and service sectors has transformed the nation from a largely rural
economy into one primarily industrial and urban. The 1989 US-Canada Free Trade
Agreement (FTA) and the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) (which
includes Mexico) touched off a dramatic increase in trade and economic
integration with the US, its principal trading partner. Canada enjoys a
substantial trade surplus with the US, which absorbs about three-fourths of
Canadian merchandise exports each year. Canada is the US's largest foreign
supplier of energy, including oil, gas, uranium, and electric power. Given its
abundant natural resources, highly skilled labor force, and modern capital
plant, Canada enjoyed solid economic growth from 1993 through 2007. Buffeted by
the global economic crisis, the economy dropped into a sharp recession in the
final months of 2008, and Ottawa posted its first fiscal deficit in 2009 after
12 years of surplus. Canada's major banks, however, emerged from the financial
crisis of 2008-09 among the strongest in the world, owing to the financial
sector's tradition of conservative lending practices and strong capitalization.
Canada achieved marginal growth in 2010-13 and plans to balance the budget by
2015. In addition, the country's petroleum sector is rapidly expanding, because
Alberta's oil sands significantly boosted Canada's proven oil reserves. Canada
now ranks third in the world in proved oil reserves behind Saudi Arabia and Venezuela

Legal filings & complaints:
As of today date, there are several legal filing pending with various
Courts, involving the Company as plaintiff or defendant.
July 23, 2014
Mylan Inc. announced that the U.S. District Court for the District of
New Jersey granted its motion for a temporary restraining order against Apotex
Inc. and Apotex Corporation in litigation relating to Paroxetine CR, the
authorized generic of GlaxoSmithKline's Paxil(R) CR. The District Court ordered
Apotex to immediately discontinue all sales and supply of Paroxetine CR. Mylan
previously obtained an order enjoining GlaxoSmithKline from supplying
Paroxetine CR to Apotex. In addition, the District Court ordered Apotex to
immediately recall all product from its direct customers that was shipped since
the injunction was entered on July 16, 2014.
Mylan has an exclusive license to an Orange Book patent pertaining to
Paxil CR which expires in July 2016, with pediatric exclusivity extending until
January 19, 2017.
March 12, 2014
Pfizer Inc. confirmed that the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia granted summary judgment invalidating the reissue
patent (U.S. Patent No. RE44,048), covering methods of treating osteoarthritis
and other approved conditions with celecoxib, the active ingredient in Celebrex(R).
Pfizer disagrees with the ruling and will pursue all available remedies,
including an immediate appeal of the court's decision.
A trial was scheduled to begin on March 19, 2014, for infringement of
the reissue patent in the action brought by Pfizer against the generic
companies Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc., Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc., Watson
Laboratories, Inc., Lupin Pharmaceuticals, USA, Inc., Apotex Corp., and Apotex,
Inc. Each of these generic companies previously filed an abbreviated new drug
application with the United States Food and Drug Administration seeking
approval to market a generic form of celecoxib in the United States beginning
on May 30, 2014, when Pfizer's basic Celebrex(R) compound patent (including the
six-month pediatric exclusivity period) expires.
This is eighteen months prior to the December 2, 2015 expiration
(including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period) of the reissue patent.
