Mylan Inc. Announces Move to NASDAQ Stock Market

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mylan Inc. today announced that it will move its stock exchange listing to The NASDAQ Stock Market, an exchange of The NASDAQ OMX Group Inc. , from The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) effective Dec. 29. The company will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, and its common stock will continue to trade under the "MYL" ticker symbol.

Mylan's Vice Chairman and CEO Robert J. Coury commented: "Notwithstanding the obvious financial benefits that NASDAQ offers, the decision to switch Mylan's listing was also driven by the fact that for quite some time a greater portion of our total trading volume was already crossing on NASDAQ trading facilities. This decision, we believe, will further enhance Mylan's overall needs and efficiencies."

Mylan's mandatory convertible preferred stock and 1.25% convertible notes also will move to NASDAQ with the ticker symbols "MYLNP" and "MYLNG," respectively.
