ROYALTY RIGHT AGREEMENT

 

Dated as of January 18, 2017

 

To the Purchaser named on the signature page hereto

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Egalet Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), hereby covenants and agrees with you as follows:

 

ARTICLE I
 RULES OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEFINED TERMS

 

Section 1.1                                    Rules of Construction and Defined Terms.  The rules of construction set forth in Annex A shall apply to this Royalty Right Agreement and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Royalty Right Agreement as if set forth fully in this Royalty Right Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Royalty Right Agreement shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in Annex A, which is hereby incorporated by reference into this Royalty Right Agreement as if set forth fully in this Royalty Right Agreement.

 

ARTICLE II
 ROYALTY RIGHT

 

Section 2.1                                    Sale of Royalty Right.  The Seller hereby sells to the purchaser named on the signature page hereto (together with any Person to whom the Royalty Right is Transferred pursuant to the terms hereof, the “Purchaser”) the Royalty Right in consideration for the consideration set forth in Section 2.7(b). The Royalty Right shall only be evidenced by this Royalty Right Agreement and shall not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.

 

Section 2.2                                    Payment Procedures.  (a) On or prior to each Royalty Right Payment Date, the Seller shall (i) pay, by wire transfer in immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the Purchaser Account, the Royalty Right Payment Amount with respect to the corresponding Royalty Right Period and (ii) deliver to the Purchaser a report (a “Report”) setting forth (A) such Royalty Right Payment Amount and (B) the Net Sales of the Product for such Royalty Right Period, calculated in reasonable detail. Each Report and the contents thereof shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

 

(b)                                 The Seller shall be entitled to withhold taxes from any payments under the Royalty Right as required under applicable Law unless, and solely to the extent, the Purchaser provides an IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is a U.S. person or an appropriate IRS Form W-8 claiming the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty pursuant to which the Purchaser is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. federal income tax in respect of royalty income and “other income” (each, a “Tax Exemption Form”). In the event any Tax Exemption Form delivered to the Seller by the Purchaser expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, the Purchaser shall promptly provide an updated Tax Exemption Form or notify the Seller in

 

1











 

writing of the Purchaser’s legal inability to do so (in which case the Seller shall be entitled to withhold from payments made to the Purchaser).

 

Section 2.3                                    Notice of First Sale Date.  Within fifteen (15) days following the occurrence of the First Sale Date, the Seller shall provide notice in writing to the Purchaser of the date on which the First Sale Date occurred (the “First Sale Notice”).

 

Section 2.4                                    Information Rights.  Upon the Purchaser’s prior written request, the Seller shall meet at reasonable times during normal business hours with the Purchaser up to two times per calendar year to discuss the content of any Report or First Sale Notice (or reasons for the lack of any Report or First Sale Notice). The Seller shall promptly furnish to the Purchaser all relevant information and documentation in connection with this Royalty Right Agreement that the Purchaser may reasonably request in connection with the determination of whether or when the First Sale Date occurred and whether the calculation of Net Sales of the Product or a Royalty Right Payment Amount is in error. The Seller agrees to maintain books and records relevant to the calculation of Net Sales of the Product and Royalty Right Payment Amounts. Any information or documentation provided or made available by the Seller pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

 

Section 2.5                                    Audit Rights.  Subject to reasonable advance written notice from the Purchaser within six (6) months of each Royalty Right Payment Date, the Seller shall permit the Purchaser and an independent accounting firm of national reputation chosen by the Purchaser to have access during normal business hours to the books and records of the Seller as may be reasonably necessary to audit the calculation of Net Sales and Royalty Right Payment Amounts (or reasons for the lack of any calculation therefor) for the applicable Royalty Right Period pertaining to such Royalty Right Payment Date. Any such audit shall be at the expense of the Purchaser; provided, however, that if any such audit reveals a discrepancy of at least 5% of a Royalty Right Payment Amount, then the cost of such audit shall instead be borne by the Seller. In the event that any audit reveals an underpayment of any Royalty Right Payment Amount, then the underpayment amount shall be paid within thirty (30) days after Purchaser makes a demand therefor, plus interest thereon if such amount is in excess of five percent (5%) of the amount that actually should have been paid. Such interest shall be calculated from the date such amount was due until the date such amount is actually paid, at the rate of one-half percent (0.5%) over the prime rate of interest as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date such amount was due. The independent accounting firm conducting any audit pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall agree to be bound by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement or shall otherwise agree to confidentiality provisions acceptable to the Seller. Any books and records, information or other documentation provided or made available by the Seller pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

 

Section 2.6                                    Transferability of Royalty Right.  Subject to final sentence of this Section 2.6, at the option of the Purchaser, the Royalty Right may be Transferred, in whole but not in part, but only in compliance with applicable Laws and upon three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Seller. Any request to Transfer the Royalty Right must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of Transfer and any other documentation reasonably requested by the Seller (including a Confidentiality Agreement executed by the transferee and any new information in respect of the Purchaser Account contemplated by the

 

2











 

definition thereof) in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Seller. Upon receipt of such written request and other instruments and documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, the Seller shall recognize the requested Transfer, and Seller’s recognition of any such Transfer shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Any duly Transferred Royalty Right shall be the valid obligation of the Seller, evidencing the same right and entitling the transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Royalty Right Agreement as those previously held by the transferor. Any Transfer of the Royalty Right shall be without charge (other than the cost of any transfer tax, which shall be the responsibility of the transferor). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the consent of the Seller shall be required with respect to, and the Seller shall have the right to decline to consent to and recognize, any Transfer that is proposed to be made to any Person that the Seller reasonably determines is a competitor of the Seller.

 

Section 2.7                                    Allocation of Purchase Price.  The Seller and the Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that the Notes issued to the Purchaser (or its Affiliate) and the Royalty Right sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on the date hereof constitute an “investment unit” for purposes of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code. In accordance with Section 1273(b)(2) of the Code and Section 1273(c)(2)(A) of the Code, the issue price of the investment unit is 100% of the principal amount of such Notes. Allocating that issue price between such Notes and such Royalty Right based on their relative fair market values, as required by Section 1273(c)(2)(B) of the Code and U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h)(1), results in (a) such Notes having an issue price of 83.24% of the principal amount of such Notes and (b) such Royalty Right having a purchase price of 16.76% of the principal amount of such Notes. The Seller and the Purchaser agree to prepare their respective U.S. federal income tax returns, statements and reports, as the case may be, in a manner consistent with the foregoing agreement.

 

Section 2.8                                    No Partnership or Joint Venture.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Royalty Right shall not represent any equity or ownership interest in the Seller or have any voting, management or dividend rights. The Seller and the Purchaser are not partners, associates or joint venturers with each other, and nothing herein shall be construed to impose any liability as such on either of them or make them a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity or legal form.

 

ARTICLE III
 MERGERS

 

Section 3.1                                    Mergers.

3











 

satisfactory to the Purchaser, (c) no default by the Seller of its obligations under this Royalty Right Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing and (d) the Seller shall have delivered to the Purchaser an Officer’s Certificate stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, winding up, conversion, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition and such documents or instruments (if any) comply with this Royalty Right Agreement. The Successor Company (if other than the Seller) shall succeed to, and be substituted for, the Seller under this Royalty Right Agreement, and in such event the Seller will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Royalty Right Agreement.

Except as required by applicable Law or judicial or administrative proceedings (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigation demand or similar process) or the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or trading system or any Governmental Authority or pursuant to requests from regulatory agencies having oversight over the Seller, neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall disclose to any Person, or use or include in any public announcement or any public filing, the identity of any shareholders, members, directors or Affiliates of the Purchaser, without the prior written consent of such shareholder, member, director or Affiliate.

 TABLE OF CONTENTS AND HEADINGS

 

Section 12.1                             Table of Contents and Headings.  The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Royalty Right Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

ARTICLE XIII
 TAX MATTERS; TAX DISCLOSURE

 

Section 13.1                             Tax Matters.  The Seller and the Purchaser intend that the Royalty Right be treated for U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes as a contractual right to receive the Royalty Right Payment Amounts, if any. The Seller and the Purchaser do not intend that the Royalty Right be treated as an equity or ownership interest in the Seller or that any amount allocated to the Royalty Right pursuant to Section 2.7 be treated as a contribution to capital, and neither the Seller nor the Purchaser shall take any action inconsistent with such treatment. The Purchaser shall treat the Royalty Right Payment Amounts, if any, as ordinary income for U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes, and neither the Seller nor the Purchaser shall take any action inconsistent with such treatment. So long as the Purchaser shall have delivered to the Seller a properly completed IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (in any case, specifying that the Purchaser is entitled to the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty and is entitled to a zero rate of withholding under the “Royalty” and “Other Income” articles of such treaty) or IRS Form W-8ECI and certifying, to the extent required, that the Purchaser is not subject to the withholding tax imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the regulations thereunder, the Seller shall not withhold U.S. federal income tax on any Royalty Right Payment Amount. After the end of each calendar year, but not later than the latest date permitted by applicable Law, the Seller shall timely prepare and timely file, deliver and furnish, as the case may be, IRS Forms 1042 and IRS Forms 1099, as applicable, with respect to any payments of the Royalty Right Payment Amounts.

 

Section 13.2                             Tax Disclosure.  Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied to the contrary herein, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, and its respective employees, representatives and agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and the tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Royalty Right Agreement and the agreements and instruments referred to herein and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such Person relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided, however, that neither such Person nor any employee, representative or other agent thereof shall disclose any other information that is not relevant to understanding the tax treatment and tax structure of such transactions (including the identity of any party and any information that could lead another to determine the identity of any party) or any other information to the extent that such disclosure could reasonably result in a violation of any Law relating to federal or state securities matters. For these purposes, the tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Royalty Right Agreement and the agreements and instruments referred to herein means the purported or claimed U.S. federal or state tax treatment of such transactions. Moreover, the tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Royalty Right Agreement and the agreements and instruments referred to herein includes

 

7











 

any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. federal or state tax treatment of such transactions.

 

ARTICLE XIV
 AMENDMENT TO EXISTING ROYALTY RIGHT AGREEMENT

 

Section 14.1                             Amendment to Existing Royalty Right Agreement.  The definition of “Royalty Right Percentage” in Annex A to the Royalty Right Agreement dated as of August 31, 2016 between the Seller and the Purchaser is hereby amended by deleting the words “the product of (a) 0.015 multiplied by (b)” therefrom.
