Heading: Mylan's Count V

Text: 39 Count V alleged that the Saydah Agreement created a separate requirement that Cyanamid purchase a minimum quantity of Maxzide-25 in addition to Cyanamid's existing obligation to purchase a minimum quantity of Maxzide. Mylan argues that the series of correspondence leading up to the letter signed by both parties should be considered part of the Saydah Agreement. It claims that that correspondence taken as a whole shows that the parties intended to create a separate minimum quantity requirement for Maxzide-25. The district court held that the prior correspondence was at most a series of offers and counteroffers, was not part of the contract, and was therefore inadmissible parol evidence. It concluded that the Saydah Agreement did not create a separate minimum purchase requirement for Maxzide-25. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment on this count on the reasoning of the district court. Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. American Cyanamid Co., Civ. No. 90-0121-C(S) (N.D.W. Va. July 27, 1993).
