November 14, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 959 ORDER PRELIMINARILY APPROVING SETTLEMENT AND PROVIDING FOR NOTICE OF SETTLEMENTS granting #955 Motion for Settlement. ORDERS: 1. Preliminary approval. of the Brand Defendants Settlement, subject to further consideration at the Fairness Hearing described below. The Court has also previously preliminarily approved four settlements with the Generic Defendants ("the Generic Defendants Settlement Agreements," (ECF Nos. 284, 505, 514 ). The class in the settlement with the Generic Defendants (the "Generic Defendants Class") includes the following: as further set forth herein. The Court previously appointed Plaintiff as the class representative ("Class Representative"). The Court also previously appointed Marvin Miller and Lori Fanning of Miller Law LLC and Peter Safirstein of Safirstein Law LLC as co-lead counsel for the Classes ("Class Counsel"). The Fairness Hearing shall be held before this Court on March 13, 2023, at 10:00AM before the Honorable Colleen McMahon, in Courtroom 24A of the Daniel Patrick Moynihan U.S. Courthouse, at 500 Pearl Street, New York, NY I 0007. The Court finds that the proposed Brand Defendants Settlement, which includes a cash payment of $54,400,000 (Fifty-Four Million, Four Hundred Thousand Dollars) by Brand Defendants into an escrow account for the benefit of the Brand Defendants Class (the "Settlement Fund") in exchange for, inter alia, dismissal of the litigation between Plaintiff and the Brand Defendants Class, on one hand, and Brand Defendants, on the other, with prejudice and release and discharge of the Released Claims, as set forth in the Brand Defendants Settlement Agreement, was arrived at by arm's-length negotiations by highly experienced counsel after several formal and informal mediations, years of litigation, and within weeks of trial and falls within the range of possibly approvable settlements. The proposed Brand Defendants Settlement is therefore hereby preliminarily approved, subject to further consideration at the Fairness Hearing. The Court approves, as to form and content, the notice plan ("Notice Plan") and exhibits attached to the Declaration of Elaine Pang, and finds that the direct mailing and email distribution of the Postcard Notice and publishing of the Summary Notice substantially in the manner and form set forth therein meet the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 and due process, and constitute the best notice practicable under the circumstances and shall constitute due and sufficient notice to all entitled to be noticed. The Court further reserves the right to enter a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal that approves the Settlements and dismisses the Action (as defined in the Settlement Agreements); on the merits and with prejudice regardless of whether the Court has approved the Plan of Allocation or awarded attorneys' fees and expenses or awarded Class Representative's incentive award. The Court appoints A.B. Data, Ltd. as Notice and Claims Administrator ("Notice and Claims Administrator" or "ABD") to supervise and administer the notice procedure as well as the processing of claims as more fully set forth below: as further set forth herein. Class Members who wish to participate in the Settlement(s) shall complete and submit a Claim Form in accordance with the instructions contained therein. Unless the Court orders otherwise, all Claim Forms must be submitted electronically by, or if mailed, postmarked no later than Feb 3, 2023. The following schedule of dates shall govern the resolution of the Settlements: Deadline for Class Counsel to provide notice to Class Members by effectuating the Summary Notice and Postcard Notice as specified in the Notice Plan - Dec. 5, 2022 [or 21 days after entry of Preliminary Approval Order]. Deadline for Class Counsel to cause the Summary Notice to be published twice in nationally distributed, business-focused newswires - Dec. 5, 2022. [or 21 days after entry of Preliminary Approval Order]. Deadline for Class Counsel to file affidavit of notice of emailing, mailing, and publication - Jan. 13, 2023 [or 60 days after entry of Preliminary Approval Order]. Deadline for filing of Final Approval papers in support of (i) the Settlements, (ii) the Plan of Allocation, (iii) the application by Class Counsel for attorneys' fees and/or reimbursement of expenses - March 1, 2023 [before the Fairness Hearing]. Deadline for consumer Class Members in the Generic Defendants Class to submit/file: Proof of Claim and Release Forms Requests to be excluded from the Generic Defendants Class Objections to the Settlement, or any of the Applications - Feb. 3, 2023.

September 14, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 916 NOTICE OF APPEARANCE by Daniel Gross on behalf of Actavis, plc, Forest Laboratories, LLC..(Gross, Daniel)
September 13, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 915 ORDER: Next week's final pretrial conference is currently scheduled for September 22, 2022. The parties are advised that the final pretrial conference will begin promptly at 9:30am on September 22, 2022 in Courtroom 24A of the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse at 500 Pearl Street and will continue until 2:30 PM, with a very short break for lunch. I apologize but have just received sad news and I must unexpectedly fly out late that Thursday afternoon to attend to a personal matter. I would appreciate it if you would update the information from your final pre-trial order to reflect the witnesses you are actually going to call and the exhibits you are actually going to introduce. Our time next Thursday will be spent largely dealing with objections to those exhibits, which should be few (after about 45 minutes, the attorneys in the DPP case suddenly lost interest in all their form objections and stipulated to the admissibility of just about everything; I might suggest that you do the same). You do not need to update your discussion of the issues to be tried - I know what issues need to be tried. I would appreciate it if you would file your updated witness lists and exhibit lists (with any objections to the exhibits noted), together with hard copy of the exhibits, no later than Monday, September 19, 2022. PLEASE do not renumber your exhibits!!!!!!!! I am not trying to make work for some poor associate or paralegal. If you are eliminating a proposed exhibit - and you have all designated way too many exhibits - just pull it and we won't use that number. I need a clean set of the proposed exhibits, in binders with tabs. Final Pretrial Conference set for 9/22/2022 at 09:30 AM in Courtroom 24A, 500 Pearl Street, New York, NY 10007 before Judge Colleen McMahon.

August 2, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 886 ORDER: In working my way through the in limine motions I see that the parties (or at least Defendants) are under the impression that my decision to bifurcate the issues of liability and damages applied only in the DPP case. It does not. There is just as much reason (perhaps more) to bifurcate the issues of liability and damages at the IPP trial, and we will do so. I am not aware of having said anything specific to the contrary, but if I did, I take it back. I have reached the conclusion that there is simply no other way to try this case if it is to be tried to a jury.

July 26, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 694 ORDER: Plaintiff SBA has responded to the Court's offer to provide additional evidence relating to the injury it suffered from the hard switch by standing on its original submissions in connection with the motions for summary judgment. (Docket # 692). Specifically, SBA calls the court's attention to pages 4952 of the Expert Report of Laura Craft. But that is the very evidence which the court already considered in its summary judgment order that does not identify which of SBA's reimbursements were attributable to the hard switch. Although the data shows how many reimbursements for Namenda XR were made in each year between 2012 and 2017, the reimbursements are not broken down in a way that identifies those that were made during the hard switch period. And it is not possible to infer that every purchase of Namenda XR made during or after the hard switch period is attributable to the hard switch. Therefore, defendants' motion for summary judgment is GRANTED to the extent of dismissing the hard switch allegations. (Signed by Judge Colleen McMahon on 7/26/2021) (nb)

June 11, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 689 DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART PLAINTIFF'S AND DEFENDANTS' DAUBERT MOTIONS; AND GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART THE MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT: The motions to exclude the expert reports and testimony of Michael Davitz, Jacob Holzer, and Philip Green are denied. The motions to exclude the expert reports and testimony of Susan Marchetti, Thomas McGuire, Lona Fowdur, and Sue Robinson are granted in part and denied in part consistent with this opinion. As for the summary judgment motions, the cross-motions for summary judgment on Counts I and II the antitrust claims are denied in full. These claims will go to trial as to whether the reverse-payment settlements (including the Lexapro Amendment) were anticompetitive, and whether they caused any delay in generic competition. Defendants motions for summary judgment as to Counts III and IV are granted in part and denied in part consistent with this opinion. If we are still on centralized trial scheduling due to the COVID pandemic in late 2021, the Court will be applying for a trial date for this case during the first quarter of 2022. If I am back in control of my own trial calendar, I will be assigning a first quarter trial date as soon as I am authorized to do so. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to close Dkt. Nos. 543, 545, 547, 549, 555, 560, 564, 568, 571, 574, and 614 and to remove them from this Court's list of open motions. (As further set forth in this Order.)

March 26, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 683 ORDER GRANTING INDIRECT PURCHASER CLASS PLAINTIFFS MOTION TO APPROVE THE FORM AND MANNER OF NOTICE TO THE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR CLASS granting #677 Motion to Approve. Upon review and consideration of Indirect Purchaser Class Plaintiff's Motion to Approve the Form and Manner of Notice to The Third Party Payor Class, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, that the motion is GRANTED AS MODIFIED as follows: 1. The Court approves the manner of giving notice to the class, but directs that references to the allegations regarding the hard switch theory be changed to read as follows: The lawsuit also includes allegations directed toward a so-called "hard switch product hop" to compel purchasers to switch to Defendants' extended release version of Namenda (Namenda XR), before less expensive generic versions of Namenda IR became available; however, the Court did not certify the "hard switch" claim for class action treatment, so the Indirect Purchaser Plaintiff is pursuing that claim only for itself, not on behalf of any other indirect purchaser of Namenda. 2. A.B. Data is appointed as Notice and Claims Administrator. (Signed by Judge Colleen McMahon on 3/26/2021) (mml)

February 19, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 660 ORDER terminating #657 Letter Motion for Discovery. This Order resolves the letter motion at Dkt. 657 concerning Forests attempts to claw back certain material designated privileged and confidential. Regardless of the merits of whether or not the material is protected, Plaintiffs counsel has not offered any excuse for failing to follow Chief Judge McMahon's rules regarding clawbacks, or for ignoring Forest's clawback demands. The challenge to Forest's assertion of privilege should have been made after complying with the clawback request. Accordingly, the Court grants Forest's requested relief: Plaintiff shall destroy all copies of the Clawed- Back Documents, withdraw the portions of their Opposition that reference Forest's information over which Forest asserts privilege, and file an amended Opposition deleting all references to the information Forest asserts is privileged. That said, the Court has reviewed the material at issue and agrees with Plaintiff that not all of pages 777-789 are protected by privilege. Many of the statements are simply factual, and others are clearly primarily for business. The mere fact that the documents bear the legend Privileged and Confidential does not cloak them with privilege. Accordingly, by February 25, 2021, Forest shall file under seal a letter of no more than 3 pages explaining how and why the material at issue is privileged. Forest shall also at that time submit to Chambers email for in camera review a proposed redacted version (along with a fully unredacted version for comparison) of the document that redacts only material that is truly subject to protection. By March 1, 2021, Plaintiff may file a letter of no more than three pages responding to Forests letter. So Ordered.Copies transmitted this date to all counsel of record.

February 11, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 656 ORDER granting in part and denying in part #444 Motion to Certify Class; granting in part and denying in part #551 Motion. For the foregoing reasons, SBA's motion for class certification is granted in part and denied in part in accordance with the limits established by this opinion. The Court certifies the following class with respect to SBA's pay-for- delay theory of liability only: All Third-Party Payors who indirectly purchased, and/or paid, and/or provided reimbursement for, some or all of the purchase price for branded Namenda IR 5 or 10 mg tablets, their AB-rated generic equivalents, and/or Namenda XR capsules, other than for resale in Alabama, Arizona, California, D.C., Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island (for purchases after July 15, 2013), South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin, for consumption by themselves, or their members, employees, insureds, participants, or beneficiaries, from June 1, 2012 through December 31, 2017. Although SBA has not included the pro forma class exclusion of all judges and the chambers staff of those judges assigned to work on this case in their amended class definition, I will exclude them. Thus: Excluded from the proposed Class are: (a) Defendants and Defendants' parents, subsidiaries and affiliates; (b) fully-insured health care plans (i.e., health plans that purchased insurance from another third-party payor covering 100% of the insureds' prescription drug benefits on behalf of the Plan's members and beneficiaries); (c) all federal or state governmental entities, excluding cities, towns or municipalities with self-funded prescription drug plans; (d) Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs); and (e) all judges presiding in this case, their chambers staff, and any members of their immediate families, and all counsel of record. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to close Dkt. Nos. 444 and 551. It is so ordered. (Signed by Judge Colleen McMahon on 2/11/2021) (nb)

Defendants' letter motion to compel Plaintiff to revise its responses to the requests for admission identified in Dkt. 296 is granted for substantially the reasons set forth in Dkt. 296 and 299. The deadline for issuing RFAs is just that - a deadline; it does not limit issuing RFAs at an earlier time. The RFAs also are not duplicative of earlier discovery in direct purchaser litigation, nor could they be as Plaintiff is not a party to that case. The Court has considered all other opposing arguments by Plaintiff and finds them without merit. Plaintiff shall serve revised responses to the RFAs at issue by January 28, 2020.

December 16, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 322 ORDER terminating #316 Letter Motion to Compel. This Order addresses the parties' disagreement about the extent to which Plaintiff may pursue additional depositions. (See Dkt. 316, 320, 321.) As noted by Defendants, the stipulation and order regarding use of evidence from other actions bars deposition examination of either previously-deposed or new witnesses about topics for which there has been prior testimony in either the NYAG Action or OPP Action. (Dkt. 206 at No. 3.) That said, the stipulation and order is not as restrictive as Defendants make it out to be. Accordingly: 1. Plaintiff must identify with greater particularity the deposition topics it intends to pursue for each proposed deponent and in a way that explains why the testimony sought is non-duplicative. 2. The Court finds sufficient Plaintiff's explanation for deposing witnesses Burchard and Solomon provided in Dkt. 321. This disclosure also shows that Plaintiff can provide adequate description to Defendants without the need for in camera review at this juncture. 3. By December 23, 2019, Plaintiff shall provide Defendants with an updated disclosure. To the extent Defendants continue to object, they shall provide a written response to Plaintiff by December 30, 2019. By January 7, 2020, the parties shall then meet and confer in person. If any disputes remain, then by January 10, 2020, Plaintiff shall apprise the Court by letter. Defendants may respond by letter no later than January 14, 2020, as further set forth in this Order.

At that conference, the court will rule on any and all objections to exhibits, as well as set the final witness list. The Court will provide the parties with time limits for the presentation of their cases before October 2, 2020; they will not exceed seven trial days per side and may be shorter. The Court will hold an interim conference in this case on June 19, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. I emphasize that the trial date and all interim deadlines in this order are for real.

The terms of the Wockhardt Settlement dated June 10, 2019, and the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Settlement dated June 25, 2019 are hereby preliminarily approved. This Order incorporates the Wockhardt Settlement and the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Settlements, and terms used in this Order that are defined in those Settlements have the same meanings. The Settlements were entered into after arm's-length negotiations by experienced counsel on behalf of the EPP Class. The Court preliminarily finds that the Wockhardt Settlement and the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Settlement are fair, reasonable and adequate, and in the best interests of the FPP Class, pursuant to Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and warrants preliminary approval. 10. Bank Leumi USA is hereby approved as Escrow Agent pursuant to the Wockhardt Settlement and the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Settlement. 11.

The stay shall remain in effect until further order of this Court. 12.

In the event that either the Wockhardt Settlement or the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Settlement is terminated, not approved by the Court, or the respective Settlement does not become final pursuant to the terms of the respective Settlement, litigation against those Defendants shall resume in a reasonable manner as approved by the Court. 14. Nothing herein shall be deemed an admission by the Wockhardt Defendants or the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Defendants of any wrongdoing or any unlawful conduct, and nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Wockhardt Defendants or the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Defendants of any right to contest, should the litigation resume against the Wockhardt Defendants or the Amneal-Upsher-Smith-Sun Defendants. 15. The Court retains exclusive jurisdiction to consider all further matters arising out of or connected with the Settlement Agreement, as further set forth in this Order.

May 17, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 260 ENDORSED LETTER addressed to Counsel from Chief Judge Colleen McMahon re: I also need to find out (1) when any lawyer representing Forest first laid eyes on the Dr. Reddy's memo that occasioned its April 29 motion; (2) what actually did happen during discovery of the generics in the DPP case; (3) what challenges were mounted, if any, to the non-production of documents by the generics in the DPP case; and (4) whether privilege issues concerning these documents have been litigated before Judge Lehrburger in the IPP case. And I need to consider the arguments for and against the admissibility of the Dr. Reddy's memo in the DPP case. And then I need to decide whether fundamental fairness requires that we reopen discovery of some or all of the generics in the DPP case - not a result I am eager to reach. Unfortunately, this little grenade exploded just as I was preparing to leave on a much needed vacation. Which means the earliest I can meet with you all is June 4 - a date on which I hope you can arrange to be available - or during the week of June 10 (because I must attend the Second Circuit Judicial Conference on June 5-7). Elizabeth Brody, the law clerk on these matters, and Mariela de Jesus, my deputy clerk, will work with you and with Judge Lehrburger, whose presence is highly desirable, to arrange a conference. Prior thereto, you can feel free to send a short (no more than four single-spaced pages) letter addressing any of the topics I have raised in this memo. I will be "off the grid" for the next two weeks - this is not a working vacation - and so I will read whatever you have to say as soon as I return to the office, as further set forth in this order.

January 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 219 ORDER ON DISCOVERY OF THIRD PARTIES, REBATE DATA AND PRODUCT LISTS: This is an antitrust case involving Namenda, a drug treatment for Alzheimer's disease. This order addresses (1) Plaintiff's objections to Defendant Forest's plan for serving subpoenas on third parties, and (2) Forest's requests for disaggregated rebate information and approved drug product lists. Having considered the parties' submissions and relevant prior proceedings, the Court orders as follows: 1. Forest may proceed with third-party discovery to the extent of serving document subpoenas for eight of the third-parties Forest has targeted. No third-party depositions shall be taken prior to the scheduled mediation, as further set forth in this Order. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger on 1/23/2019) Copies Sent By Chambers.

January 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 218 ORDER ON DISCOVERY OF "OTHER" ALZHEIMER'S TREATMENTS: The Data may well turn out to be of minor consequence. But it will be for the economic experts the parties plan to use to evaluate the impact, if any, of the Data on injury/damages and class certification. This is a "high stakes" case potentially involving damages of many millions of dollars where the parties have considerable resources. Moreover, despite ample opportunity to do so, Plaintiff has not claimed, let alone shown, that producing the Data imposes any burden or substantial cost, nor disputed Forest's characterization that the data is "readily available." Taking into account all relevant factors, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(1), the Court finds that the Data should be produced, as further set forth in this Order. SO ORDERED.

September 17, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 123 LETTER addressed to Robert W. Lehrburger from Peter Safirstein dated September 17, 2018 re: conference regarding IPP non-duplicative discovery. Document filed by Sergeants Benevolent Association Health & Welfare Fund.(Safirstein, Peter)
September 10, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 122 ORDER LIFTING STAY AND REFERRING THIS CASE TO THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE FOR CERTAIN PURPOSES: This action has been stayed since September 13, 2016, when the Indirect Purchaser Plaintiffs ("IPPs") claims were severed from the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs' ("DPPs") claims. (Dkt. No. 107 at 33.) The claims were placed on the Court's suspense calendar so that the factual record could be developed and the federal claims resolved. After many months, discovery is over in the DPP case; the court has certified a class (although defendants are seeking review of that determination in the Second Circuit) and has denied a motion for summary judgment. Before setting a trial date, the DPPs and Forest have advised the Court that they are amenable to mediation; however, mediation will only work if the IPPs come back into these proceedings. I am aware that there is a pending motion to dismiss the IPP claims. (Dkt. No. 80.) The Court will turn its attention to that motion presently. However, I am referring this case to the assigned Magistrate Judge, The Hon. Robert Lehrburger, for supervision of such non-duplicative discovery as is necessary to get the parties to the IPP case up to speed, so they can participate meaningfully in a mediation that will be scheduled after the first of the year.
