MOORE, Circuit Judge.
Endo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Endo) appeals from the district court’s order denying its motions for a preliminary injunction to prevent Roxane Laboratories, Inc. (Roxane), Actavis Inc., and Actavis South Atlantic LLC (Actavis) from marketing and selling their respective generic drug products during the pendency of this litigation. Because the district court erred in concluding that Roxane and Actavis (Ap-pellees) had an implied license to practice the asserted patents, and because Appel-lees do not have an express license, we vacate and remand.
