<p>PLIVA's CEO Zeljko Covic opened the Pharmaceutical Development Center in AWD.pharma. |

The Development Center is directly integrated with the production area, which |

| 6 |
|
|
Center, which was an investment worth approximately EUR 3 million, 26 employees |
| 7 |

<p>The new Development Center in Dresden fits into the development strategy of |
| 9 |
|
|
PLIVA, a company with 65 years of successful research and development.</p> |
| 10 |
|
|
<p>The opening ceremony led by top executives of the corporation from Zagreb was |
| 11 |
|
|
an expression of the integration of AWD.pharma and the parent company.</p> |
| 12 |
|
|
<p>"AWD.pharma, additionally strengthened by the Development Center, offers new |
| 13 |
|
|
values to PLIVA's big family. This milestone will also contribute to our plans |
| 14 |
|
|
to increase our presence on the demanding German pharmaceutical market. But |
| 15 |
|
|
we will not stop there - our goal is the large European Union market. That is |
| 16 |
|
|
why every advancement of AWD.pharma at the same time strengthens PLIVA and, |
| 17 |
|
|
consequently, fosters the achievement of our objectives", stressed PLIVA's CEO |
