Ackman, a citizen of the United States (together with Pershing Square and PS Management, the “Reporting Persons”) relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Allergan, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at: 2525 Dupont Drive, Irvine, California, 92612.

Capitalized terms not defined in this Amendment No. 9 shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

On July 11, Pershing Square and certain other Reporting Persons filed definitive solicitation materials with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the calling of a special meeting of shareholders of the Issuer and began actively soliciting support for calling such a meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock held for the account of any party subject to such solicitation.

On July 16, 2014, William A. Ackman sent a letter to the board of directors of the Issuer which addressed the Issuer’s response to Valeant’s acquisition proposal. The letter is attached as Exhibit 99.13 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

(a), (b) Based upon the Issuer’s Preliminary Revocation Solicitation Statement on Schedule 14A, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2014, there were 296,910,449 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2014.

Based on the foregoing, the Subject Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, including the Valeant Shares, represent approximately 9.7% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

Pershing Square, as the investment adviser to PS Fund 1, may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares, except with respect to the Valeant Shares. As the general partner of Pershing Square, PS Management may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or to direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares, except with respect to the Valeant Shares. By virtue of William A. Ackman’s position as the Chief Executive Officer of Pershing Square and managing member of PS Management, William A Ackman may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares, except with respect to the Valeant Shares, and, therefore, William A. Ackman may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the Subject Shares.

The Reporting Persons are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the information concerning the Reporting Persons contained herein, but are not responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the information concerning Valeant contained herein.

As of the date hereof, none of the Reporting Persons own any shares of Common Stock other than the Subject Shares covered in this Statement.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

The form of agreement with respect to the call options entered into between PS Fund 1 and Nomura International plc, and amendment thereto, (together, the “Share Call Option Master Confirmation”), are filed as Exhibit 99.14, and are incorporated herein by reference. The form of agreement with respect to the forward purchase contracts between PS Fund 1 and Nomura International plc (the “Share Forward Master Confirmation”), is filed as Exhibit 99.15 and is incorporated herein by reference. The key financial and economic terms of each call option and forward purchase contract, to the extent not reflected in such form agreements, are described in this Item 6 and in the trading data included in Exhibit 99.2.

On July 15, 2014, Pershing Square and Valeant entered into an indemnification letter agreement relating to Valeant’s previously announced exchange offer. The letter agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.16 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 6 as if restated in full.
