Allergan's Argument Against Holding a Special Meeting ► Allergan states that the distraction and time and financial cost of holding a meeting are the reasons why a special meeting should not be held ► These costs would go away if Allergan would immediately engage with Valeant regarding the proposed transaction There are certain significant risks and costs associated with calling and holding a special meeting of which stockholders should be aware before making the decision of whether to execute and return a white Written Request card in connection with the Pershing Square/Valeant Solicitation. A special meeting and the related solicitations risk diverting significant time and resources when it is critical that Allergan's Board and management be fully focused on operations and executing the Company's strategies.
