`DECISION AND ORDER
`
`Docket No. C-4727
`
`DECISION
`
`The Federal Trade Commission initiated an investigation of Respondent Pfizer Inc.’s
`(“Pfizer”) proposal to spin off its Upjohn division and combine it with the assets of Respondent
`Mylan N.V. Upon consummation, the combination is expected to be renamed Viatris Inc. and
`will be comprised of certain legacy Pfizer assets held by Upjohn Inc. and its subsidiaries,
`Respondent Pfizer’s Greenstone LLC business, and all of the assets of Respondent Mylan N.V.
`The Commission’s Bureau of Competition prepared and furnished to each Respondent the Draft
`Complaint, which it proposed to present to the Commission for its consideration. If issued by the
`Commission, the Draft Complaint would charge Respondents with violations of Section 7 of the
`Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act,
`as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45.
`
`
`

`

`Respondents and the Bureau of Competition executed an Agreement Containing Consent
`Orders (“Consent Agreement”) containing (1) an admission by Respondents of all the
`jurisdictional facts set forth in the Draft Complaint; (2) a statement that the signing of said
`agreement is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by Respondents
`that the law has been violated as alleged in the Draft Complaint, or that the facts as alleged in the
`Draft Complaint, other than jurisdictional facts, are true; (3) waivers and other provisions as
`required by the Commission’s Rules; and (4) a proposed Decision and Order and Order to
`Maintain Assets.
`
`The Commission considered the matter and determined that it had reason to believe that
`
`Respondents have violated the said Acts, and that a complaint should issue stating its charges in
`that respect. The Commission accepted the Consent Agreement and placed it on the public
`record for a period of 30 days for the receipt and consideration of public comments; at the same
`time, it issued and served its Complaint and Order to Maintain Assets. The Commission duly
`considered any comments received from interested persons pursuant to Commission Rule 2.34,
`16 C.F.R. § 2.34. Now, in further conformity with the procedure described in Rule 2.34, the
`Commission makes the following jurisdictional findings, and issues the following Decision and
