Note 8: Related Party Transactions

Prior to June 29, 2002, the Company entered into several agreements with Allergan in connection with, among other things, transitional services, employee matters, manufacturing and tax sharing. These agreements generally required the Company to indefinitely indemnify Allergan from liabilities related to the business contributed to AMO.

The transitional services agreement set forth charges generally intended to allow Allergan to fully recover the allocated costs of providing certain services, plus all out-of-pocket expenses, except that AMO paid to Allergan a commission related to AMO products that were sold by Allergan during the transition period. The Company recovered costs from Allergan in a similar manner for services provided by AMO. All transitional services under the transitional services agreement have terminated.

Under the manufacturing agreement, which ended on June 29, 2005, Allergan manufactured certain eye care products and VITRAX viscoelastics from the date of the June 29, 2002 spin-off. The Company purchased these products from Allergan at a price equal to Allergan’s fully allocated costs plus 10%. During 2005 and 2004, the Company purchased $41.9 million and $89.3 million, respectively, of product from Allergan. On an annual basis, a pricing “true up” calculation was performed during the first calendar quarter. This “true up” calculation was based upon the actual volume of products shipped by Allergan to AMO during the preceding year versus the forecasted volume submitted by AMO that was used to calculate the invoiced prices. During the year, the Company periodically reviewed the volume of purchases and accrued for estimated shortfalls, if any. The Company received $0.8 million from Allergan in October 2005 as the final “true-up” amount for the six months ended June 29, 2005.

Note 7: Related Party Transactions

 

Prior to June 29, 2002, the Company participated in various Allergan administered functions including shared services surrounding selling, general and administrative expenses, retirement and other post retirement benefit plans, income taxes and cash management. The allocated portion of the expenses for these shared services of $23.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 (through June 28, 2002), are included in “Selling, general and administrative” expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The basis for the amounts allocated to AMO included: headcount for human resources and facilities related costs, sales units for finance and information systems related costs, and net sales for general and administrative related costs. Allergan management believed that the methods used to allocate the expenses of these shared services were reasonable.

 

Prior to June 29, 2002, the Company entered into several agreements with Allergan in connection with, among other things, transitional services, employee matters, manufacturing and tax sharing. These agreements generally require the Company to indefinitely indemnify Allergan from liabilities related to the business contributed to AMO.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

The transitional services agreement set forth charges generally intended to allow Allergan to fully recover the allocated costs of providing certain services, plus all out-of-pocket expenses, except that AMO paid to Allergan a commission related to AMO products that were sold by Allergan during the transition period. The Company recovered costs from Allergan in a similar manner for services provided by AMO. All transitional services under the transitional services agreement have terminated.

 

Under the manufacturing agreement, Allergan manufactures certain eye care products and VITRAX viscoelastics for a period of up to three years from the date of the spin-off. The Company purchases these products from Allergan at a price equal to Allergan’s fully allocated costs plus 10%. During 2004, 2003 and 2002 (subsequent to the spin-off), the Company purchased $89.3 million, $77.0 million and $31.8 million respectively, of product from Allergan. On an annual basis, a pricing “true up” calculation is to be performed during the first calendar quarter. This “true up” calculation is based upon the actual volume of products shipped by Allergan to AMO during the preceding year versus the forecasted volume submitted by AMO that was used to calculate the invoiced prices. During the year, the Company periodically reviews the volume of purchases and accrues for estimated shortfalls, if any.

 

The following table summarizes the charges from Allergan for the above-mentioned transitional services for 2004, 2003 and the six months ended December 31, 2002 (in thousands):

The tax sharing agreement governs Allergan’s and the Company’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes for any tax period ending before, on or after the spin-off. Generally, Allergan is liable for all pre-spin-off taxes except that the Company will indemnify Allergan for all pre-spin-off taxes attributable to its business for 2002. In addition, the tax sharing agreement provides that Allergan is liable for taxes that are incurred as a result of restructuring activities undertaken to effectuate the spin-off. A deemed dividend to Allergan of $45.3 million resulted from the spin-off transaction in Japan. The related withholding tax of $4.5 million was not withheld at the time of the dividend distribution. Allergan remitted the withholding tax plus the related interest and penalties aggregating $5.1 million to AMO Japan, which subsequently remitted such amount to the Japanese taxing authorities as full and agreed-upon settlement of all related tax liabilities.

 

The Company and Allergan have made representations to each other and to the Internal Revenue Service in connection with the private letter ruling that Allergan has received regarding the tax-free nature of the spin-off of the Company’s common stock by Allergan to its stockholders. If either the Company or Allergan breach their representations to each other or to the Internal Revenue Service, or if the Company or Allergan take or fail to take, as the case may be, actions that result in the spin-off failing to meet the requirements of a tax-free spin-off pursuant to Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code, the party in breach will indemnify the other party for any and all resulting taxes. As two years have passed since the spin-off, the likelihood that the Company will be liable for any taxes resulting from a determination by the Internal Revenue Service that the spin-off was not of a tax-free nature is considered remote. However, in the unlikely event the Company is found to have breached its representations to Allergan or to the Internal Revenue Service in connection with the private letter ruling, the Company may be liable for the resulting taxes. The Company does not believe such amount will exceed $200.0 million.

 

As of December 31, 2004, an interest-free relocation loan of $0.5 million, collateralized by real property, was due from the chief executive officer. This relocation loan is evidenced by a promissory note dated July 3, 2002, prior to the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
