Item 8.01.    Other Events.

On September 7, 2010, Allergan, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with the several underwriters named therein, for whom Banc of America Securities LLC, Goldman, Sachs & Co., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated have acted as the representatives, for the issuance and sale by the Company of $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.375% Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”). A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company issued and sold $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The offering of the Notes was registered under an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-157613). The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of September 14, 2010 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a supplemental indenture, dated as of September 14, 2010 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. Copies of the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture (including the form of the Notes) are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes in this report are summaries and are qualified in their entirety by the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes.

The net proceeds from the offering of approximately $642 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, working capital, capital expenditures, repayment of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock under its evergreen stock repurchase program, and other business initiatives, including acquisitions and licensing activities.

The Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.375% per year, which shall be payable semiannually in arrears on each March 15 and September 15, respectively, beginning on March 15, 2011. The Notes will mature on September 15, 2020. The Company may redeem all or part of the Notes at any time prior to maturity at the redemption price set forth in the Supplemental Indenture.

The Notes will be the Company’s general unsecured senior obligations and will rank equally in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future unsubordinated debt. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt the Company incurs to the extent of collateral securing such indebtedness, and will be structurally subordinated to all future and existing obligations of the Company’s subsidiaries.
