`
`Acts Giving Rise to This Suit
`
`23.
`
`Pursuant to Section 505 of the FFDCA, Par filed ANDA No. 205403 ((cid:147)Par(cid:146)s
`
`ANDA(cid:148)) seeking approval to engage in the commercial use, manufacture, sale, offer for sale or
`
`importation of 500 mg/mL sodium oxybate oral solution ((cid:147)Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product(cid:148)), before the
`
`patents-in-suit expire.
`
`24.
`
`On information and belief, in connection with the filing of its ANDA as described
`
`in the preceding paragraph, Par has provided a written certification to the FDA, as called for by
`
`Section 505 of the FFDCA, 21 U.S.C. § 355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) ((cid:147)Par(cid:146)s Paragraph IV
`
`Certification(cid:148)), alleging that the claims of the (cid:146)889, (cid:146)219, (cid:146)506, (cid:146)650, (cid:146)275, (cid:146)730, (cid:146)106, (cid:146)107,

`(cid:146)059, and (cid:146)988 patents are invalid, unenforceable, and/or will not be infringed by the activities
`
`described in Par(cid:146)s ANDA.
`
`25.
`
`No earlier than November 20, 2013, Jazz Pharmaceuticals received written notice
`
`of Par(cid:146)s Paragraph IV Certification ((cid:147)Par(cid:146)s Notice Letter(cid:148)) pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 355(j)(2)(B).
`
`Par(cid:146)s Notice Letter alleged that the claims of the (cid:146)889, (cid:146)219, (cid:146)506, (cid:146)650, (cid:146)275, (cid:146)730, (cid:146)106, (cid:146)107,
`
`(cid:146)059, and (cid:146)988 patents are invalid, unenforceable, and/or will not be infringed by the activities
`
`described in Par(cid:146)s ANDA. Par(cid:146)s Notice Letter also informed Jazz Pharmaceuticals that Par seeks
`
`approval to market Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product before the patents-in-suit expire.

`
`Count I: Infringement of the ’431 Patent
`
`26.
`
`Plaintiff repeats and realleges the allegations of paragraphs 1-25 as though fully
`
`set forth herein.
`
`27.
`
`Par, through its submission of its Paragraph IV Certification as part of its ANDA
`
`to the FDA, has indicated that it seeks approval to engage in the commercial use, manufacture,
`
`sale, offer for sale, or importation of sodium oxybate oral solution, prior to the expiration of the
`
`(cid:146)431 patent. Par(cid:146)s actions with respect to its ANDA show that there is a substantial controversy,
`
`between the parties, of sufficient immediacy and reality to warrant the issuance of a declaratory
`
`judgment.
`
`28.
`
`Par(cid:146)s submission of its ANDA to obtain approval to engage in the commercial
`
`use, manufacture, sale, offer for sale, or importation of sodium oxybate oral solution, prior to the
`
`expiration of the (cid:146)431 patent, constitutes infringement of one or more of the claims of that patent
`
`under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2)(A).
`
`29.
`
`There is a justiciable controversy between the parties hereto as to the infringement
`
`of the (cid:146)431 patent.
`
`30.
`
`Unless enjoined by this Court, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will
`
`infringe the (cid:146)431 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) by making, using, offering to sell, importing,
`
`and/or selling Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product in the United States.
`
`31.
`
`Unless enjoined by this Court, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will
`
`induce infringement of the (cid:146)431 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b) by making, using, offering to
`
`sell, importing, and/or selling Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product in the United States. On information and
`
`belief, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will intentionally encourage acts of direct
`
`infringement with knowledge of the (cid:146)431 patent and knowledge that its acts are encouraging
`
`infringement.

`
`
`
`32.
`
`Unless enjoined by this Court, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will
`
`contributorily infringe the (cid:146)431 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c) by making, using, offering to
`
`sell, importing, and/or selling Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product in the United States. On information and
`
`belief, Par has had and continues to have knowledge that Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product is especially
`
`adapted for a use that infringes the (cid:146)431 patent and that there is no substantial non-infringing use
`
`for Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product.
`
`33.
`
`Jazz Pharmaceuticals will be substantially and irreparably damaged and harmed if
`
`Par(cid:146)s infringement of the (cid:146)431 patent is not enjoined.
`
`34.
`
`35.
`
`Jazz Pharmaceuticals does not have an adequate remedy at law.
`
`This case is an exceptional one, and Jazz Pharmaceuticals is entitled to an award
`
`of its reasonable attorneys(cid:146) fees under 35 U.S.C. § 285.
`
`Count II: Infringement of the ’889 Patent
`
`36.
`
`Plaintiff repeats and realleges the allegations of paragraphs 1-35 as though fully
`
`set forth herein.
`
`37.
`
`Par(cid:146)s submission of its ANDA to obtain approval to engage in the commercial
`
`use, manufacture, sale, offer for sale, or importation of sodium oxybate oral solution, prior to the
`
`expiration of the (cid:146)889 patent, constitutes infringement of one or more of the claims of that patent
`
`under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2)(A).

`
`of the (cid:146)889 patent.
`

`
`Unless enjoined by this Court, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will
`
`infringe the (cid:146)889 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) by making, using, offering to sell, importing,
`
`and/or selling Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product in the United States.

`
`Unless enjoined by this Court, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will
`
`induce infringement of the (cid:146)889 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b) by making, using, offering to
`

`
`infringement with knowledge of the (cid:146)889 patent and knowledge that its acts are encouraging
`
`infringement.
`
`41.
`
`Unless enjoined by this Court, upon FDA approval of Par(cid:146)s ANDA, Par will
`
`contributorily infringe the (cid:146)889 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c) by making, using, offering to
`
`sell, importing, and/or selling Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product in the United States. On information and
`
`belief, Par has had and continues to have knowledge that Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product is especially
`
`adapted for a use that infringes the (cid:146)889 patent and that there is no substantial non-infringing use
`
`for Par(cid:146)s Proposed Product.
`
`42.
`
`Jazz Pharmaceuticals will be substantially and irreparably damaged and harmed if
`
`Par(cid:146)s infringement of the (cid:146)889 patent is not enjoined.
`
`43.
`
`44.
`
`Jazz Pharmaceuticals does not have an adequate remedy at law.
`
`This case is an exceptional one, and Jazz Pharmaceuticals is entitled to an award
`
`of its reasonable attorneys(cid:146) fees under 35 U.S.C. § 285.
`
`Count III: Infringement of the ’219 Patent
`
`45.
`
`Plaintiff repeats and realleges the allegations of paragraphs 1-44 as though fully
`
`set forth herein.
`
`46.
`
`Par(cid:146)s submission of its ANDA to obtain approval to engage in the commercial
`
`use, manufacture, sale, offer for sale, or importation of sodium oxybate oral solution, prior to the
