They do have an encapsulation patent: #8,298,554. It seems to be a "Catch-22". The capsule is patented and is made up from certain chemical compounds. It could consist of a few percentage points of inactive ingredients.

The Catch-22:

The generics capsule would infringe if its makeup is identical.
On the other hand, if its makeup was different then it the product would not meet the definition of "Generic"
