Valeant won't pay whatever it takes for Allergan: CEO

(Reuters) - Valeant Pharmaceuticals Inc won't pay whatever it takes to acquire rival Allergan Inc, and it will not turn its bid into an all-cash deal, Valeant Chief Executive Michael Pearson said on Tuesday in New York. Valeant and activist investor Bill Ackman made an unsolicited $47 billion bid to buy Botox maker Allergan as it seeks to become one of the world's five biggest drug companies.
