Q: ABBV is mentioned and recommended frequently in the 5I questions. I have heard that Humira is its strongest asset; is that the case? A BNN guest the other day referred to Humira coming off patent in 2023; does this affect its long term prospects? The company has a very healthy dividend, especially for a US entity; is this sustainable in the long term? Any other comments about ABBV? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I was interested in Jeff's follow-up comment on Excelon sales declining. Who sold it before Knight in Latam and Canada? Perhaps the reason the company made a deal with Knight is to improve visibility and awareness while giving Knight's sales force new avenues for it's other products.
The price tag does not appear to be a bargain (Knight paid $360M or double for $250M sales in Biotoscan). Surely Goodman sees value in this deal. If there was no effort before then potential must be factored in and I suspect Latam is the more coveted marketplace. Can you comment and provide any previous history with sales of this product. Alzheimers us unfortunately, not going anywhere soon.

Q: Just a further comment to James' question and your answer regarding the Exelon purchase. This purchase left me scratching my head. I am a healthcare provider who works in the area where Exelon would be used. I don't see much Exelon used. As you indicated, it is a mature product. However, revenues have been declining over several years, at least according to Macrotrends (available at https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/EXC/exelon/revenue) so I don't know what rabbit GUD can pull out to wring increased revenues from this medication.

Q: good morning - i want to increase my US health care exposure. At this point I could add to my ABBV which would make it more than a full position or I could trim a bit of ABBV and add the proceeds to existing cash to take a second US position. I do have WELL on the canadian side of my health investing. Is there a strong second US candidate you would suggest? Thanks
