Samples in accordance therewith. However, for the avoidance of doubt, the Parties hereby confirm that (i) BDSI’s manufacturing obligations under
this Section 4.4 shall only arise on receipt of Orders. 
 4.5 Within *** following Meda’s submission of the initial
application for Governmental Approval to a Competent Authority in the Territory with respect to the BEMA Fentanyl Product, Meda shall provide BDSI with a nonbinding Forecast of Meda’s requirements for the BEMA Fentanyl Product for the
*** period following receipt of the anticipated Governmental Approval. The Forecast shall be updated *** until the date on which Meda places an Order for Launch Stocks. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Forecasts made hereunder
shall, except as further described below, be nonbinding and made to assist BDSI in planning its production and Meda in planning marketing and sales. 
 4.6 All Orders for Products other than Clinical Supply Orders and Orders for Launch Stocks shall be governed by this Section 4.6. Meda shall, not less than *** before the beginning of each calendar
quarter, give BDSI (i) its Order for the BEMA Fentanyl Products to be delivered to Meda during that calendar quarter and (ii) a Forecast for the following ***. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Meda shall have no obligation to deliver
Forecasts pursuant to this Section 4.6 until it places an Order for Launch Stocks. BDSI shall not be obligated to accept any Order for a calendar quarter that exceeds by more than 20% the amounts forecast for that quarter in the previous
Forecast. However, BDSI shall make commercially reasonable efforts, but not be obligated, to also deliver such exceeding quantities. Meda may request amendment to an Order within *** after such Order is given and BDSI shall use its
commercially reasonably efforts to accept such amendment provided, however, BDSI shall not be obligated to accept such amendment if quantities specified in the Order are increased by more than ***% over the original Order, cause the Product
scheduled for delivery in a quarter to exceed by more than ***% the amounts most recently Forecast for that quarter, or are decreased by more than ***% compared to the original Order. However, BDSI shall make commercially reasonable
efforts, but not be obligated, to also deliver any quantities exceeding the aforementioned limitations. BDSI shall deliver according to the delivery schedule contained in any Order. The ESC will discuss delivery and scheduling issues as necessary.
Each Forecast shall be deemed a binding commitment of Meda to purchase in the first calendar quarter thereof (i.e. the first quarter following the quarter covered by the accompanying Order) at least *** of the quantity of Products set forth
with respect to such first calendar quarter. No terms and conditions contained in any Order, acknowledgment, invoice, bill of lading, acceptance or other preprinted form issued by either Party shall be effective to the extent they are inconsistent
with, modify or add to the terms and conditions contained herein. 
 4.7 Meda shall be entitled at its option to reject such part of any
delivery of the Products which does not comply with the Product Specifications, Packaging Specifications, or applicable regulatory requirements (including those contained in applicable Governmental Approvals and GMP), provided that Meda shall be
deemed to have accepted any delivery of the Products unless it gives BDSI notice of its rejection within *** of delivery, or in case of a latent defect, within *** after the date Meda could have reasonably discovered such latent
defect. BDSI shall, at BDSI’s option, promptly replace (without additional cost) or refund to Meda the amount actually paid by Meda to BDSI with respect to any such Products which do not comply with the Product Specifications, Packaging
Specifications, or applicable regulatory requirements (including but not limited to those contained in applicable Governmental Approvals).

 4.8 Meda shall return to BDSI, at BDSI’s cost, any Products rejected properly in accordance with
this Section 4, in which case BDSI shall, consistent with Section 4.7 above, refund the amount actually paid by Meda to BDSI for such Products or promptly replace such Products at no additional charge, and pay to Meda the actual,
reasonable, documented cost incurred by Meda in effecting the return of such Products. 
 4.9 If, with respect to any Products which have
been replaced and/or for which the amount actually paid by Meda therefore has been refunded is, following investigation, found by reasonable, independent, neutral, third party laboratory analysis pursuant to generally-accepted scientific methods, to
have complied with the Product Specifications, Packaging Specifications, and all regulatory requirements (including but not limited to those described in applicable Governmental Approvals and GMP), Meda shall: 
 (a) accept those Products as part of the next order and, if no Order will be placed before the termination of this Agreement, pay BDSI the applicable
amount therefore pursuant to this Agreement, and 
 (b) refund any additional amount paid by BDSI to Meda with respect thereto. 

4.10 If BDSI determines that it will not be able to supply Products to Meda in material satisfaction of the most recent Orders and/or Forecast, BDSI
shall promptly notify Meda in writing of such determination, which notice shall provide Meda with the details on the extent of the expected shortfall of supply, the causes of such inability to supply, and BDSI’s proposed solution to the
problem. Upon such notice of a supply problem, or in any event upon occurrence of a Back-Up Trigger (as defined below), (i) Meda and BDSI will immediately meet and work together, in good faith, to identify an appropriate resolution to the
supply problem, provided that Section 4.11 shall remain applicable with respect to the occurrence of a Back-Up Trigger in the absence of any such resolution, and (ii) BDSI shall, during any such shortfall of supply, use commercially
reasonable efforts to continue to supply to Meda an amount of Products proportionate to the quantity of Products ordered by Meda under this Agreement consistent with such Order and/or Forecast divided by the total demand during the same time period
for Products by BDSI, its Affiliates, their sublicensees (including but not limited to Meda), and any other third parties to whom BDSI is obligated to supply Products. Any agreed resolution to the supply problem will be set forth in a writing
executed by both parties. 
 4.11 In the event (i) BDSI cannot or does not properly supply on a timely basis in accordance with this
Section 4 at least ***% of the amount of Product specified in accepted Orders (other than the Initial Supply Order) properly forecasted in any *** or (ii) of the occurrence of a breach of this Agreement by BDSI that, despite
Meda’s compliance with Section 4.13 below, materially adversely affects Meda’s (or Meda’s Affiliates’) ability to develop and sell Products for a single consecutive period greater than *** (each of the foregoing, a
“Back-Up Trigger”), Meda may, upon written notice to BDSI, terminate this Agreement or render it nonexclusive, enabling Meda to manufacture Products or have them manufactured on its behalf. Such notice by Meda shall describe the applicable
Back-Up Trigger. Upon receipt of such

notice, BDSI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to Meda, at Meda’s reasonable expense, copies of all information, including technical
information, that is controlled by BDSI, that is useful or necessary in the manufacture of the Products and is reasonably necessary to enable Meda or any designated alternative supplier to manufacture such Products. Such transfer shall commence and
be completed by BDSI as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event shall be completed prior to *** after BDSI’s receipt of notice from Meda. BDSI shall provide Meda reasonable assistance, at Meda’s request and expense, with
respect to understanding such manufacturing information. 
 4.12 Contract Manufacturer(s). BDSI may, in its sole discretion, contract
with Third Parties for the manufacture or supply of Products hereunder as it may determine necessary to enable it to satisfy its obligations hereunder. For purposes of clarification but not limitation, the performance of any of BDSI’s
obligations hereunder by any such Third Parties shall be deemed to satisfy such obligations of BDSI.

acknowledges the inherent risk that a batch of bulk or finished Products may be lost in production or shipment, and agrees to maintain an inventory of Products reasonably sufficient, consistent with industry standards, to supply at least ***
worth of its requirements at all times.

shall, at Meda’s option, immediately replace (without additional cost) or refund to Meda the amount actually paid by Meda for any such Products which do not meet the foregoing warranty. Replacement or refund, as elected by BDSI in its sole
discretion, shall be Meda’s sole remedy for breach of such warranty unless such breach is the result of BDSI’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 5.2 BDSI shall, as soon as reasonably possible, provide written notice of any significant changes proposed by BDSI to the Product or method of manufacture of the Products, the Product Specifications, or Packaging
Specifications. The time for implementing such changes shall be reasonably agreed between the Parties in order to enable Meda to obtain the relevant regulatory approvals prior to such implementation, provided that in any and all events, the period
of time required for such implementation shall be no less than the length of time required by BDSI’s supplier of the Product.

 (b) In the event Meda concludes that an underpayment or overpayment was made, Meda will specify such
underpayment or overpayment in a written report, along with the information on which such conclusion is based. This report will be delivered promptly to BDSI. The reimbursement of any actual overpayment shall be due and payable to Meda by BDSI
within *** of the date of such report. In case Meda correctly concludes that it made an overpayment by more than ***, all reasonable, documented costs for the audit shall be paid by BDSI. 
 (c) If BDSI in good faith disputes the conclusion of Meda or its accounting firm under subsection (b) above that BDSI overcharged Meda in the
calendar year under review, then BDSI shall inform Meda by written notice within *** of receiving a copy of the report containing such conclusion, specifying in detail the reasons for BDSI disputing such conclusion. The parties shall promptly
thereafter meet and negotiate in good faith a resolution to such dispute. In the event that the parties are unable to resolve such dispute within *** after such notice from BDSI, Meda shall be entitled to seek resolution of such dispute
pursuant to Section 16.3. 
 (d) The Parties shall treat all information subject to review under this Section 10.2 in accordance
with the confidentiality provisions of Section 12 of this Agreement. 
 11. Technical Representatives. Each Party shall designate a suitably

approvals for Products in the Territory. 
 12. Confidential Information. 
 12.1 During the term of this Agreement and for a period of five years thereafter, each Party shall maintain all Confidential Information of the other
Party as confidential and shall not disclose any such Confidential Information to any Third Party or use any such Confidential Information for any purpose, except (a) as expressly authorized by this Agreement, (b) as required by law, rule,
regulation or court order (provided that the disclosing Party shall first notify the other Party, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain confidential treatment of any such information required to be disclosed, and shall disclose only
the minimum information required to be disclosed in order to comply, and provided further that any Confidential Information disclosed pursuant to this subsection (b) shall not include financial or marketing information), or (c) to its
Affiliates, employees, agents, consultants and other representatives to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement or, in the case of BDSI, to (i) satisfy its obligations under the CDC Agreement and Arius’ obligations under the Arius Two
Agreement and (ii) develop, market, and/or sell any BEMA-based products not competing with the Products, so long as such persons are under an obligation of confidentiality no less stringent than as set forth herein. Each Party may use such

standard of care) to ensure that its Affiliates, employees, agents, consultants and other

representatives do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of the other Party’s Confidential Information. Each Party shall promptly notify the other
Party upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information. 
 12.2 Neither Party shall
release to any Third Party or publish in any way any non-public information with respect to the terms of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the
foregoing a Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement to potential investors, lenders, investment bankers and other financial institutions of its choice solely for purposes of financing the business operations of such Party, or, in the case of
BDSI, to any prospective or actual sublicensee, licensor, manufacturer, marketing or other corporate partner, acquirer, or acquisition target; provided such Party only discloses such information under conditions of confidentiality on terms
substantially similar to those contained in this Section 12. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall prohibit either Party from filing this Agreement as required by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, national
securities exchanges (including those located in countries outside of the United States) or the Nasdaq Stock Market; provided the disclosing Party discloses only the minimum information required to be disclosed in order to comply with such
requirements, including requesting confidential treatment of this Agreement (after consultation with the other Party) and filing this Agreement in redacted form. The Parties agree to cooperate with respect to requests for confidential treatment to
be submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission or any similar foreign authority with respect to certain portions of this Agreement and any redactions thereof for such purposes. 
 13. Termination. 
 13.1 Termination by Either Party for Insolvency. Either Party may terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the term upon the occurrence of any of the cessation of operations of the other Party or the bankruptcy,

 13.3 Termination by BDSI. BDSI may, by written notice to Meda, terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of this Agreement upon the occurrence of the following: 
 (a) Upon or after the breach of any material provision of this Agreement by Meda (other than a failure to pay by Meda, which is addressed in
Section 13.3(b) below), if Meda has not cured such breach, if capable of being cured within such time period, within *** after written notice thereof by BDSI, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, BDSI shall be entitled to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.3(b) without providing the aforementioned opportunity to cure; and 
 (b) Upon the
failure by Meda to pay any amount in excess of *** under this Agreement or the License Agreement within *** from receipt of a second written notice thereof from BDSI (with respect to products supplied under this Agreement, the invoice

 treatment are being requested are denoted with “***”.

  

 
accompanying such products or otherwise provided in conjunction with their shipment shall not be deemed the first “notice” for purposes of this
paragraph), with a copy of such second notice to be provided to ***. If any payment, or portion thereof, is the subject of a good faith dispute (a “Disputed Amount”) between Meda and BDSI, BDSI shall not be entitled to terminate
this Agreement with respect to any failure by Meda to pay the Disputed Amount until such dispute has been resolved by the parties (including, if necessary, pursuant to any arbitration under Section 16.3). 
 13.4 Effect of Termination. 
 (a) In
the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.1, 13.2, or 13.3 or as a result of the termination of the License Agreement, Meda shall have no further obligation to purchase Products from BDSI, and BDSI shall have no further
obligation to supply Products to Meda, provided that Meda shall have the obligation to, if and as requested by BDSI and provided that such termination does not directly result from BDSI’s uncured material breach of this Agreement or the License
Agreement, (i) purchase any Conforming Products remaining in BDSI’s inventory at the time of such termination pursuant to the payment terms established under Sections 6.1 and 6.2, (ii) permit BDSI to complete the process of
manufacture by BDSI of Products in production or scheduled for production at the time of such termination and purchase resulting Conforming Products upon completion of such manufacture pursuant to the payment terms established under Sections 6.1 and
6.2, and/or (iii) reimburse BDSI for the total direct and indirect cost of any materials acquired or manufactured in anticipation of manufacturing Products for supply to Meda hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, however, Meda
shall remain obligated to take delivery of and pay for, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the License Agreement, any Products necessary to fulfill any Order outstanding as of the date of such termination. Neither Party shall
otherwise have any obligation to the other with respect to the supply or purchase of Product or failure to supply or purchase Product following such termination (including any obligation to pay damages for failure to supply or purchase following
termination), provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to any Product supplied to Meda by BDSI following termination in accordance with this Section 13.4(a). 
 (b) Upon a Licensor Termination, BDSI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, if and as requested by Meda, have assigned to Meda any manufacturing
or other contracts entered into by BDSI concerning the manufacture of Products, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, BDSI shall not have any obligation to pay any additional consideration to any third party or incur any additional
obligation to effect such an assignment. 
 (c) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, expiration or termination of this Agreement
shall not relieve the Parties of any obligation accruing prior to such expiration or termination (including but not limited to any obligation of Meda to pay any amounts due or owing at the time of such cancellation, expiration, or termination).
Except as set forth below or elsewhere in this Agreement, the obligations and rights of the Parties under Sections 1, 4.9, 4.11, 5.7, 6.1, 6.2, 7.3, 8.2, 10.2(b), (c), and (d), 12, 13, 14, 15.5, and 16 shall survive expiration or termination of this
Agreement.

 ***CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED*** 
 Note: The portions hereof for which confidential 
 treatment are being requested are denoted with “***”.

  

 (d) Upon termination of this Agreement (i) by Meda pursuant to Sections 2(iii). 13.1 or 13.2 or
(ii) resulting from termination of the License Agreement by Meda pursuant to Section 13.02 thereof, BDSI shall upon Meda’s request and at Meda’s expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to Meda promptly copies of
all information, including technical information, that is controlled by BDSI, that is useful or necessary in the manufacture of the Products and is reasonably necessary to enable Meda or any designated alternative supplier to manufacture such
Products. Such transfer shall commence and be completed by BDSI as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event shall be completed prior to *** after BDSI’s receipt of notice from Meda. BDSI shall provide Meda reasonable assistance,
at Meda’s request and expense, with respect to understanding such manufacturing information. 
 14. Indemnification;
Limitations of Liability. 
 14.1 Meda Indemnified by BDSI. BDSI shall indemnify and hold Meda, its Affiliates, and their
respective employees, directors and officers, harmless from and against any liabilities or obligations, damages, losses, claims, encumbrances, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (any or all of the foregoing herein referred to as
“Loss“) insofar as a Loss or actions in respect thereof occurs subsequent to the Effective Date arises out of BDSI’s negligence or intentional misconduct. BDSI’s obligations to indemnify Meda hereunder shall not apply to the
extent any such Loss arises out of or is based on any (a) inactions or actions of Meda or its Affiliates for which Meda is obligated to indemnify BDSI under Section 14.2 or (b) negligence or intentional misconduct of Meda or its
Affiliates. 
 14.2 BDSI Indemnified by Meda. Meda shall indemnify and hold BDSI, its Affiliates, and their respective employees,
directors and officers, harmless from and against any Loss insofar as such Loss or actions in respect thereof occurs subsequent to the Effective Date and arises out of or is based upon (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any of the
warranties, covenants or agreements made by Meda in this Agreement; (b) Meda’s or its Affiliates’ development, use, marketing, sale, distribution, promotion, handling, or storage of Products; or (c) any product liability claim
that is brought against BDSI by any Third Party due to the use of any Product in the Territory. Meda’s obligations to indemnify BDSI hereunder shall not apply to the extent any such Loss arises out of or is based on the negligence or
intentional misconduct of BDSI. 
 14.3 Prompt Notice Required. No claim for indemnification hereunder shall be valid unless notice of
the matter which may give rise to such claim is given in writing by the indemnitee (the “Indemnitee“) to the persons against whom indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnitor“) as soon as reasonably practicable after such
Indemnitee becomes aware of such claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability except to the extent that such failure to notify actually adversely impacts the Indemnitor’s ability
to defend such claim. Such notice shall state that the Indemnitor is required to indemnify the Indemnitee for a Loss and shall specify the amount of Loss and relevant details thereof. The Indemnitor shall notify Indemnitee no later than ***
from such notice of its intention to assume the defense of any such claim. In the event the Indemnitor fails to give such notice within that time the Indemnitor shall no longer be entitled to assume such defense.

 ***CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED*** 
 Note: The portions hereof for which confidential 
 treatment are being requested are denoted with “***”.

  

 14.4 Defense and Settlement. The Indemnitor shall at its expense, have the right, subject to
the limitations of this Section 14.4, to settle and defend, through counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, any action which may be brought in connection with all matters for which indemnification is available. In such event the
Indemnitee of the Loss in question and any successor thereto shall permit the Indemnitor full and free access to its books and records and otherwise fully cooperate with the Indemnitor in connection with such action; provided that this Indemnitee
shall have the right fully to participate in such defense at its own expense. The defense by the Indemnitor of any such actions shall not be deemed a waiver by the Indemnitor of its right to assert a claim with respect to the responsibility of the
Indemnitor with respect to the Loss in question. The Indemnitor shall not settle or compromise any claim against the Indemnitee without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No
Indemnitee shall pay or voluntarily permit the determination of any liability which is subject to any such action while the Indemnitor is negotiating the settlement thereof or contesting the matter, except with the prior written consent of the
Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnitor fails to give Indemnitee notice of its intention to defend any such action as provided herein, the Indemnitee involved shall have the right to assume the defense thereof
with counsel of its choice, at the Indemnitor’s expense, and defend, settle or otherwise dispose of such action. With respect to any such action which the Indemnitor shall fail to promptly defend, the Indemnitor shall not thereafter question
the liability of the Indemnitor hereunder to the Indemnitee for any Loss (including counsel fees and other expenses of defense). 
 14.5
EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO BREACHES OF SECTION 12 AND THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED HEREUNDER, WHICH SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING LIMITATION, THE PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS AND LOST SALES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT (EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES). EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO BREACHES OF SECTION 12 AND THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED HEREUNDER, WHICH SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING LIMITATION, THE LIABILITY OF BDSI TO MEDA FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID TO BDSI UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. 
 15. Representations and
Warranties. 
 15.1 Corporate Power. As of the Effective Date, each Party hereby represents and warrants that such Party is duly

 treatment are being requested are denoted with “***”.

  

 15.3 Binding Obligation. As of the Effective Date, each Party hereby represents and warrants
that this Agreement is a legal and valid obligation binding upon it and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except that the enforcement of the rights and remedies created hereby is subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and
similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and that the availability of the remedy of specific performance or of injunctive relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor
may be brought. As of the Effective Date, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Party does not conflict with any agreement, instrument or understanding, oral or written, to which it is a party or by which it may be bound,
nor violate any law or regulation of any court, governmental body or administrative or other agency having authority over it. 
 15.4
Legal Proceedings. As of the Effective Date, each Party hereby represents and warrants to the other Party that there is no action, suit or proceeding pending against or affecting, or, to the knowledge of either Party, threatened against or
affecting that Party, or any of its assets, before any court or arbitrator or any governmental body, agency or official that would, if decided against either Party, have a material adverse impact on the business, properties, assets, liabilities or
financial condition of that Party (that are not already reflected in that Party’s respective financial statements as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or foreign equivalent thereof) or otherwise made public or provided to the
other Party) and which would have a material adverse effect on that Party’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 15.5 Limitation on Warranties. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY BY BDSI TO MEDA THAT THE LICENSED TECHNOLOGY IS NOT INFRINGED BY ANY THIRD PARTY, OR THAT THE PRACTICE OF SUCH
RIGHTS DOES NOT INFRINGE ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY. OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE, NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, BY FACT OR LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANT OF
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY IN RESPECT OF ANY PRODUCT. 
 16. Miscellaneous

 16.1 Assignment. Except as explicitly contemplated by this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder
may be assigned or otherwise transferred by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that BDSI may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations
hereunder without Meda’s consent (a) in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the business of BDSI to which this Agreement relates to a Third Party, whether by merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or
otherwise, or (b) to any Affiliate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such assignment to an Affiliate shall not relieve BDSI of its responsibilities for performance of its obligations under this Agreement. The rights and obligations of the
Parties under this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties. Any purported assignment not in accordance with this Agreement shall be void.

 16.2 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party nor
be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement when such failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected
Party, including, but not limited to, fire, floods, embargoes, terrorism, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, acts of God or acts, omissions or
delays in acting by any governmental authority or the other Party, or for any other reason which is completely beyond the reasonable control of the Party (collectively a “Force Majeure“); provided that the Party whose performance is

 16.3 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the state laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflicts of laws principles. All disputes
arising under or in connection with this agreement shall be finally settled by binding arbitration, initiated by either Party on ten (10) days notice to the other Party, under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce
(“ICC”), applying the laws of the State of New York, without regards to its conflicts of law provisions, before three (3) independent, neutral arbitrators experienced in the international pharmaceutical industry. The place of
arbitration shall be New York, New York. Meda and BDSI shall each be entitled to select one (1) such arbitrator, with the two such arbitrators so selected selecting the third such arbitrator. In the event either Party fails to select its

be final and binding on the parties, and any decision of the arbitrators may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may seek injunctive, equitable, or similar relief from a court of competent
jurisdiction as necessary to enforce its rights hereunder without the requirement of arbitration. 
 16.4 Waiver. Except as
specifically provided for herein, the waiver from time to time by either of the parties of any of their rights or their failure to exercise any remedy shall not operate or be construed as a continuing waiver of same or of any other of such
Party’s rights or remedies provided in this Agreement. 
 16.5 Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable in part or degree will
