Incorporation of critical new legal developments, including the Supreme Court's decisions in FTC v. Actavis and FTC v. Phoebe Putney, important lower court developments, like the Seventh Circuit's ruling in Minn-Chem v. Agrium, and incorporation of the 2010 revisions to the Horizontal Merger Guidelines
