**Introductory Note**

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed in connection with the closing on November 10, 2025 (the "Redemption Date"), at 12:01 a.m. (Eastern Time in the United States) (the "Effective Time") of the previously announced allocation by Mallinckrodt plc, a public limited company incorporated in Ireland (and that is in the process of changing its name to Keenova Therapeutics plc) ("Mallinckrodt" or the "Company"), of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Par Health Common Stock"), of Par Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Par Health"), to Mallinckrodt shareholders (the "Spin-off"). The Spin-off was implemented by way of a redemption (the "Redemption") of all of Mallinckrodt's issued and outstanding 2025 Preferred Shares, par value $0.001 per share (the "Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares"), comprising 1,796,196,578,472 Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares, upon which the Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares were automatically cancelled and as such are no longer outstanding. In connection with the Redemption and pursuant to Irish law, Mallinckrodt allocated the right to receive 39,421,398 shares of Par Health Common Stock, being one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding shares of Par Health Common Stock as of the Redemption Date, to certain holders of record of Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares as of 5:30 p.m. (Eastern Time in the United States) on October 27, 2025 (the "Record Date"), as further described herein.

At the time of the Spin-off, Par Health held Mallinckrodt's generic pharmaceuticals (including active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs)) and sterile injectables businesses. As a result of the Spin-off, Par Health is now an independent, private company and is not listed on a securities exchange. Also as a result of the Spin-off, none of Mallinckrodt or its subsidiaries continue to be borrowers or guarantors of the indebtedness under the credit agreement, dated as of July 31, 2025, by and among ST 2020, Inc., as parent, MEH, Inc., as borrower, the lenders party thereto from time to time, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and OPY Credit Corp., as trading agent, a summary of which is included in the Amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 31, 2025, which summary is incorporated herein by reference. All borrowers and guarantors in respect of such indebtedness are subsidiaries of Par Health.

On November 7, 2025, Mallinckrodt issued the Redemption Notice of 2025 Preferred Shares of the Company to all holders of the Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares notifying them that the Redemption has been effected on the terms set out in the Redemption Notice.

On the Redemption Date, the Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares were redeemed in exchange for the following, subject to compliance with the Certification Procedures (as defined below) and the terms of the Redemption (the "Redemption Consideration"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the "Base Proceeds," being (i) in the case of Qualified
Shareholders (as defined below) only, the right to receive 0.0000219471513 shares of Par Health Common Stock for each Mallinckrodt Preferred
Share, rounded down to the nearest whole number; and (ii) in the case of Non-Qualified Shareholders (as defined below) only, the
right to receive $0.000424786467775745 in cash for each Mallinckrodt Preferred Share (the "Per Share Cash Amount"), which
the board of directors of Mallinckrodt (the "Board") determined is equal in value to the Par Health Common Stock allocated
to Qualified Shareholders for each Mallinckrodt Preferred Share; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the "Excess Proceeds," being (i) in the case of Qualified
Shareholders only, the right to receive the number of shares of Par Health Common Stock equal to the number of Mallinckrodt Preferred
Shares held of record or beneficially, as applicable, by the relevant Qualified Shareholder as of the Record Date and certified on the
Certification Form (as defined below) *multiplied by* the Per Share Excess Stock Amount (as defined below), rounded down
to the nearest whole number; and (ii) in the case of Non-Qualified Shareholders only, the right to receive a cash amount equal to
the number of Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares held of record or beneficially, as applicable, by the relevant Non-Qualified Shareholder as
of the Record Date and certified on the Certification Form *multiplied by* the Per Share Excess Cash Amount (as defined below).

Entitlements to cash payments in respect of Base Proceeds and Excess Proceeds with entitlements to fractions of a cent will be rounded up or down to the nearest cent.

Eligible Mallinckrodt shareholders were required to, among other things, properly and timely complete the following documents (the "Certification Procedures") no later than 5:30 p.m. (Eastern Time in the United States) on the business day (by reference to business days in the United States) before the Redemption Date (the "Pre-Redemption Notification Deadline"), being November 7, 2025, to receive the Base Proceeds to which they are entitled at or promptly following the Effective Time:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· *Certification Form*: A certification form (a "Certification Form")
to be made available by the Redemption Agent (as defined below) that requires each Record Holder (as defined below) (and/or Street Name
Holder (as defined below), where applicable) to certify, among other things, whether such person is a Qualified Shareholder or a Non-Qualified
Shareholder; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· *Tax Form*: Such other documents as may reasonably be required by the
Company, on the one hand, or Computershare, Inc. or Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the Company's certification and redemption
agent (the "Redemption Agent"), on the other hand, including a validly executed appropriate Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
Form W-8 or IRS Form W-9, as applicable, and any other documentation and attachments as may be required to establish that any
payment made to such Qualified Shareholder or Non-Qualified Shareholder (and any Record Holder that is a bank, brokerage firm or similar
organization receiving such payment for the benefit of such Qualified Shareholder or Non-Qualified Shareholder, if applicable) is not
subject to U.S. backup withholding tax.

On November 7, 2025, the Board determined that Mallinckrodt had received sufficient valid Certification Forms from Qualified Shareholders to proceed with the Spin-off and set the Redemption Date. At the Effective Time, shares of Par Health Common Stock were allocated to Qualified Shareholders who had also complied with all other applicable Certification Procedures prior to the Pre-Redemption Notification Deadline and all other shares of Par Health Common Stock were deposited in the Escrow Account (as defined below). Non-Qualified Shareholders who had also complied with all other applicable Certification Procedures prior to the Pre-Redemption Notification Deadline are allocated cash payments; in the aggregate, the cash amounts are estimated to be less than $5 million.

Qualified Shareholders and Non-Qualified Shareholders who comply with and satisfy the applicable Certification Procedures (including, where applicable, the satisfaction of the applicable Certification Procedures by any Record Holder that is a broker, bank or similar organization receiving Base Proceeds for the benefit of a Qualified Shareholder or Non-Qualified Shareholder) during the period of time beginning immediately after the Effective Time and ending at 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time in the United States) on November 10, 2026, being the twelve-month anniversary of the Redemption Date (the "Escrow Period"), will be entitled to receive the Base Proceeds. **THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE THE BASE PROCEEDS AND/OR EXCESS PROCEEDS, OR ANY OTHER CONSIDERATION, WILL IRREVOCABLY EXPIRE AND LAPSE IN THE CASE OF RECORD HOLDERS (AND/OR STREET NAME HOLDERS IDENTIFIED BY SUCH RECORD HOLDERS) THAT HAVE NOT COMPLIED WITH OR SATISFIED THE APPLICABLE CERTIFICATION PROCEDURES BEFORE THE EXPIRATION OF THE ESCROW PERIOD**. Par Health will not be permitted to distribute cash or non-cash dividends until the expiration of the Escrow Period.

Promptly after the expiration of the Escrow Period:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the Redemption Agent will allocate any shares
of Excess Par Health Common Stock (as defined below) remaining in the Escrow Account among Qualified Shareholders as of immediately before
the expiration of the Escrow Period in accordance with their entitlement to receive the Excess Proceeds (as defined below) (to the extent
not previously so allocated in accordance with the Board's right to make certain interim distributions of Excess Proceeds during
the Escrow Period); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the Redemption Agent will promptly make a cash
payment to all Non-Qualified Shareholders as of immediately before the expiration of the Escrow Period in accordance with their entitlement
to receive the Excess Proceeds (to the extent not previously so paid in accordance with the Board's right to make certain interim
distributions of Excess Proceeds during the Escrow Period), and Mallinckrodt will deliver cash to the Redemption Agent to enable the Redemption
Agent to make such cash payment.

Mallinckrodt will re-open the Mallinckrodt Register of Members with effect from 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time in the United States) on November 11, 2025. The Mallinckrodt Register of Members was previously closed in accordance with section 174 of the Companies Act 2014 (as amended) of Ireland with effect from 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time in the United States) on October 23, 2025. Transfers of shares in the capital of the Company will not be registered while the Mallinckrodt Register of Members remains closed.

For the purposes of the foregoing:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The "Escrow Account" is the escrow account established by Mallinckrodt
with the Redemption Agent to receive any shares of Par Health Common Stock that have not been allocated to Qualified Shareholders at the
Effective Time, and any such replacement account as may be approved by Mallinckrodt for such purposes from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The "Excess Par Health Common Stock"
is the Par Health Common Stock in the Escrow Account not allocated to Qualified Shareholders before the expiration of the Escrow Period,
being the Par Health Common Stock as of the Redemption Date that (a) would otherwise have been allocated to Non-Qualified Shareholders
had they been Qualified Shareholders; or (b) would otherwise have been allocated to other Record Holders that have not satisfied
the applicable Certification Procedures as Qualified Shareholders before the expiration of the Escrow Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A "Non-Qualified Shareholder" is a Record Holder or Street Name
Holder as of the Record Date that has complied with the Certification Procedures and that has returned a Certification Form, duly, truthfully
and accurately completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, certifying (among other things) that such Record
Holder or Street Name Holder (as the case may be) is not a Qualified Shareholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The "Par Health Value" is $763 million, the value ascribed by
the Board to Par Health before the Effective Time for the purposes of determining the Per Share Cash Amount and the Per Share Excess Cash
Amount (if any) to which Non-Qualified Shareholders are entitled pursuant to the Redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The "Per Share Excess Cash Amount"
is an amount in cash that the Board determined was equal to the value of the Per Share Excess Stock Amount as of the Redemption Date,
being (a) (i) the Par Health Value *divided by* (ii) the total number of Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares on the Record
Date held by Qualified Shareholders that have satisfied the applicable Certification Procedures before the expiration of the Escrow Period *less* (b) the Per Share Cash Amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The "Per Share Excess Stock Amount" is the number ("A")
of shares of Par Health Common Stock derived from the following formula:

A = B/C

where:

"B" is the total number of shares of Excess Par Health Common Stock; and

"C" is the total number of Mallinckrodt Preferred Shares on the Record Date held by Qualified Shareholders that have satisfied the applicable Certification Procedures before the expiration of the Escrow Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A "Qualified Shareholder" is a holder of Mallinckrodt Preferred
Shares as of the Record Date, as reflected in the Mallinckrodt register of members (each, a "Record Holder") (and/or beneficial
holders identified by a Record Holder that is a broker, bank or similar organization as the beneficial holders of Mallinckrodt Preferred
Shares held by such Record Holder in such capacity on the Record Date (each, a "Street Name Holder")) that has complied with
the Certification Procedures and that has returned a Certification Form, duly, truthfully and accurately completed and validly executed
in accordance with the instructions thereto, certifying (among other things) that such Record Holder or Street Name Holder (as the case
may be) is a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), an institutional accredited investor (an "accredited investor" as defined in clauses (1), (2), (3), (7), (8),
(9), (12) and (13) of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act) or a director or officer of the Company or Par Health as of the
Redemption Date who is also an accredited investor (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such SpinCo Assets or SpinCo Liabilities shall continue to constitute SpinCo Assets and SpinCo Liabilities for all other purposes of this Agreement.

In addition, the member of the Parent Group retaining such Delayed SpinCo Asset or such Delayed SpinCo Liability shall, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability in the ordinary course of business in accordance with SpinCo Group past practice and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the member of the SpinCo Group to whom such Delayed SpinCo Asset is to be contributed, transferred, conveyed or assigned, or which will assume such Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, in order to place such member of the SpinCo Group in a substantially similar position as if such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability had been so contributed transferred, conveyed, assigned or assumed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, including use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, and all costs and expenses related thereto, shall inure from and after the Effective Time to the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Transfer of Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities*. If and when the Approvals or Notifications, the absence of which caused the deferral of the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of any Delayed SpinCo Asset or the deferral of assumption of any Delayed SpinCo Liability, are obtained or made, and, if and when any other legal impediments to the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of any Delayed SpinCo Asset or the assumption of any Delayed SpinCo Liability have been removed, the transfer or assignment of the applicable Delayed SpinCo Asset or the assumption of the applicable Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Costs for Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities*. Any member of the Parent Group retaining a Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability due to the deferral of the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of such Delayed SpinCo Asset or the deferral of the assumption of such Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall not be obligated, in connection with the foregoing, to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced (or otherwise made available) by SpinCo or the member of the SpinCo Group entitled to the Delayed SpinCo Asset or obligated with respect to the Delayed SpinCo Liability, other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys' fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by SpinCo or the member of the SpinCo Group entitled to such Delayed SpinCo Asset or obligated with respect to such Delayed SpinCo Liability (but the SpinCo Group shall not be required to advance such funds prior to payment by the Parent Group); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Parent Group shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide the SpinCo Group with prior notice of any known or anticipated potential loss or diminution of value of any Delayed SpinCo Asset and to afford the SpinCo Group a commercially reasonable opportunity to take action to prevent such loss or diminution in value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Approvals and Notifications for Parent Assets*. To the extent that the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of any Parent Asset, the assumption of any Parent Liability, the Separation or the Redemption requires any Approvals or Notifications, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications as soon as reasonably practicable; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or as otherwise agreed between Parent and SpinCo, neither Parent, SpinCo nor any member of their respective Groups shall be obligated to contribute capital or pay any consideration in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person in order to obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in <u>Section 2.1</u> or in any Ancillary Agreement, if and to the extent that the valid, complete and perfected contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment to the Parent Group of any Parent Asset or assumption by the Parent Group of any Parent Liability in connection with the Separation or the Redemption would be a violation of applicable Law or require any Approval or Notification that has not been obtained or made at or prior to the Effective Time then, unless the Parties shall otherwise mutually determine, the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment to the Parent Group of such Parent Assets or the assumption by the Parent Group of such Parent Liabilities, as the case may be, shall be automatically deemed deferred and any such purported contribution, transfer, conveyance, assignment or assumption shall be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are removed or such Approval or Notification has been obtained or made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Parent Assets or Parent Liabilities shall continue to constitute Parent Assets and Parent Liabilities for all other purposes of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) *Treatment of Delayed Parent Assets and Delayed Parent Liabilities*. If any contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of any Parent Asset (or a portion thereof) or any assumption of any Parent Liability (or a portion thereof) intended to be contributed, transferred, conveyed, assigned or assumed hereunder, as the case may be, is not consummated at or prior to the Effective Time whether as a result of the provisions of <u>Section 2.4(g)</u> or for any other reason (any such Parent Asset (or a portion thereof), a "<u>Delayed Parent Asset</u>" and any such Parent Liability (or a portion thereof), a "<u>Delayed Parent Liability</u>"), then, insofar as reasonably possible and subject to applicable Law, the member of the SpinCo Group retaining such Delayed Parent Asset or such Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, shall thereafter hold such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, for the use and benefit (or the performance and obligation, in the case of a Liability) of the member of the Parent Group entitled thereto or obligated therefor (at the expense of the member of the Parent Group entitled thereto or obligated therefor). In addition, the member of the SpinCo Group retaining such Delayed Parent Asset or such Delayed Parent Liability shall, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability in the ordinary course of business in accordance with Parent Group past practice and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the member of the Parent Group to which such Delayed Parent Asset is to be contributed, transferred, conveyed or assigned, or which will assume such Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, in order to place such member of the Parent Group in a substantially similar position as if such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability had been so contributed, transferred, conveyed, assigned or assumed and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, including use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, and all costs and expenses related thereto, shall inure from and after the Effective Time to the Parent Group. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, determined by Parent in its reasonable discretion, or required pursuant to a Final Determination, each of Parent and SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, (i) treat for all Tax purposes (x) any Delayed Parent Asset as an Asset owned by the Party entitled to such Delayed Parent Asset, and (y) any Delayed Parent Liability as a Liability of the Party intended to be responsible for such Delayed Parent Liability, in each case not later than the Effective Time, and (ii) neither report nor take any Tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) inconsistent with such treatment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) *Transfer of Delayed Parent Assets and Delayed Parent Liabilities*. If and when the Approvals or Notifications, the absence of which caused the deferral of the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of any Delayed Parent Asset or the deferral of assumption of any Delayed Parent Liability, are obtained or made, and, if and when any other legal impediments to the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of any Delayed Parent Asset or the assumption of any Delayed Parent Liability have been removed, the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of the applicable Delayed Parent Asset or the assumption of the applicable Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) *Costs for Delayed Parent Assets and Delayed Parent Liabilities*. Any member of the SpinCo Group retaining a Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability due to the deferral of the contribution, transfer, conveyance or assignment of such Delayed Parent Asset or the deferral of the assumption of such Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, shall not be obligated, in connection with the foregoing, to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced (or otherwise made available) by Parent or the member of the Parent Group entitled to the Delayed Parent Asset or obligated with respect to the Delayed Parent Liability, other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys' fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by Parent or the member of the Parent Group entitled to such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability (but the Parent Group shall not be required to advance such funds prior to payment by the SpinCo Group); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the SpinCo Group shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Parent Group with prior notice of any known or anticipated potential diminution of value of any Delayed Parent Asset and to afford the Parent Group a commercially reasonable opportunity to take action to prevent such loss or diminution in value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.5 <u>Novation of Liabilities</u>.

If and when any such consent, substitution, approval, amendment or release shall be obtained or the Unreleased SpinCo Liabilities shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, the applicable member of the Parent Group shall promptly assign, or cause to be assigned, and SpinCo or the applicable SpinCo Group member shall assume, such Unreleased SpinCo Liabilities without exchange of further consideration.

To the extent such substitution contemplated by the first sentence of this <u>Section 2.5(b)(i)</u> has been effected, the members of the SpinCo Group shall, from and after the Effective Time, cease to have any obligation whatsoever arising from or in connection with such Parent Liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If Parent or SpinCo is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required consent, substitution, approval, amendment or release and the applicable member of the SpinCo Group continues to be bound by such agreement, lease, license or other obligation or Liability (each, an "<u>Unreleased Parent Liability</u>"), Parent shall, to the extent not prohibited by Law, (A) use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such consent, substitution, approval, amendment or release as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, but in any event within six (6) months thereof, and (B) as indemnitor, guarantor, agent or subcontractor for such member of the SpinCo Group, as the case may be, (x) pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such member of the SpinCo Group that constitute Unreleased Parent Liabilities from and after the Effective Time and (y) use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such payment, performance or discharge prior to any demand for such payment, performance or discharge is permitted to be made by the obligee thereunder on any member of the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) At any time following the Pre-Redemption Notification Deadline (including prior to the Effective Time) but prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period, Parent may make a determination (by reference to the Qualified Shareholders and Non-Qualified Shareholders (and, where applicable, Record Holders that are brokers, banks or similar organizations receiving Interim Excess Proceeds for the benefit of Qualified Shareholders or Non-Qualified Shareholders) that have complied with and satisfied the Certification Procedures prior to the time of such determination) that a specified amount of Excess Proceeds has been established with certainty that will be due as part (or full) discharge of the entitlements under <u>Section 3.4(f)</u>, notwithstanding that the Escrow Period has not expired, and in such circumstances Parent may direct an interim discharge of part or all (as the case may be) of the Excess Proceeds in the amount specified in its determination (the "<u>Interim Excess Proceeds</u>" and the "<u>Interim Excess Determination</u>", respectively) and where such a determination is made, <u>Section 3.4(k)</u> shall apply to the allocation and payment of the Interim Excess Proceeds as if references in <u>Section 3.4(k)</u> to Excess Proceeds were to Interim Excess Proceeds and as if the time for allocation or payment is the time as set out in the Interim Excess Determination or as otherwise agreed by the Parent and the Redemption Agent. The decision as to whether to issue any (or no) Interim Excess Determinations shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of Parent. Parent may elect to issue more than one Interim Excess Determination. The Parent may issue an Interim Excess Determination to coincide with the allocation of the relevant Interim Excess Proceeds at the Effective Time (by reference to the Qualified Shareholders and Non-Qualified Shareholders (and, where applicable, Record Holders that are brokers, banks or similar organizations receiving Interim Excess Proceeds for the benefit of Qualified Shareholders or Non-Qualified Shareholders) that have complied with and satisfied the Certification Procedures prior to the Pre-Redemption Notification Deadline), in which case such Interim Excess Proceeds shall be allocated and/or paid to the relevant Qualified Shareholders and Non-Qualified Shareholders at the same time as the Base Proceeds are allocated and/or paid under <u>Section 3.4(h)</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, any allocation or payment of Interim Excess Proceeds constitutes a discharge of the obligations to allocate/pay Excess Proceeds to the extent of the Interim Excess Proceeds so allocated or paid, and no amount shall be double counted in any entitlement to Excess Proceeds where discharged in whole or in part by Interim Excess Proceeds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Whether or not the Certification Procedures have been complied with and satisfied, whether in a specified case or as a general principle, shall be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Parent. Where the Parent or the Redemption Agent is not satisfied for any reason as to the completeness, accuracy or veracity of a Certification Form or that a completed Certification Form has not accurately, sufficiently or fully served to verify the status of the applicable Record Holder or Street Name Holder, such as to determine whether or not the Record Holder is a Qualified Shareholder or a Non-Qualified Shareholder (as the case may be), or where the Parent or the Redemption Agent is not (in its absolute discretion) satisfied as to the completeness, accuracy or veracity of any certification, representation, warranty or statement made in a Certification Form (including in respect of whether or not any relevant person is a Qualified Institutional Buyer, an Institutional Accredited Investor or a director or officer of Parent or SpinCo as of the Redemption Date who is also an accredited investor (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act)), the Certification Form may (i) be rejected or queried by the Parent or the Redemption Agent, and the Certification Procedures shall not be deemed to have been satisfied in respect of such Certification Form notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or (ii) be modified by Parent or the Redemption Agent (in its absolute discretion).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Parent may amend the Certification Procedures at any time, including after the Effective Time, but no such amendment shall affect the validity of any allocation of SpinCo Shares or cash payments prior to such amendment to Qualified Shareholders or Non-Qualified Shareholders satisfying the Certification Procedures at the time of allocation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Parent shall have no liability to any person for the value of SpinCo differing in any respect from the SpinCo Value (or the Valuation Advice), whether at any time before, on or subsequent to the SpinCo Value (or Valuation Advice) being established, and (ii) any entitlements to cash payments of Non-Qualified Shareholders shall not be subject to adjustment or fluctuation by reason of the value of SpinCo at any time (whether before, on or subsequent to the SpinCo Value (or the Valuation Advice) being established) being greater or lesser than the SpinCo Value (or the Valuation Advice), and neither Parent or SpinCo, nor any of their respective affiliates or Representatives, shall have any liability for any such difference, adjustment or fluctuation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) The Redemption Consideration is not assignable, and no Record Holder may assign its rights to the Redemption Consideration without the express prior written consent of Parent or as expressly permitted pursuant to the Certification Procedures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no fractional SpinCo Shares will be allocated or credited to book-entry accounts in connection with the Redemption, nor will any cash payments be made in lieu of any such fractional share interests, and any such fractional share interests to which a Qualified Shareholder would otherwise be entitled pursuant to <u>Section 3.4(b)</u> to <u>Section 3.4(f)</u> shall not entitle such Record Holder to vote or to any other rights as a stockholder of SpinCo. If there are Excess SpinCo Shares in the Escrow Account representing fractional interests that cannot be allocated after the expiration of the Escrow Period pursuant to the Final Stock Allocation, then SpinCo shall take such action as it deems necessary to cancel such Excess SpinCo Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) SpinCo shall not distribute cash or non-cash dividends until the expiration of the Escrow Period, and any breach of this <u>Section 3.4.(r)</u> shall not create any additional or further liability for Parent or SpinCo in respect of the Redemption Consideration (including in respect of the Base Proceeds or Excess Proceeds (as applicable)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) Until the SpinCo Shares are duly allocated in accordance with this <u>Section 3.4</u> and applicable Law, from and after the Effective Time, SpinCo will regard the Qualified Shareholders that have (and, where applicable, Record Holders receiving Base Proceeds and, if applicable, Excess Proceeds for the benefit of such Qualified Shareholders have) satisfied the Certification Procedures entitled to receive such SpinCo Shares as Record Holders of SpinCo Shares in accordance with the terms of the Redemption without requiring any action on the part of such Persons. SpinCo agrees that, subject to <u>Section 3.4(h)</u> and any transfers of such shares, from and after the Effective Time (i) each such holder will be entitled to receive all dividends, if any, payable on, and exercise voting rights and all other rights and privileges with respect to, the SpinCo Shares then held by such holder, and (ii) each such holder will be entitled, without any action on the part of such holder, to receive evidence of ownership of the SpinCo Shares then held by such holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent, the Redemption Agent and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold with respect to any consideration payable pursuant to the Redemption such amounts as it is required to deduct or withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable Tax Law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement and the Redemption as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Nothing contained in <u>Section 4.1(a)</u> or <u>4.1(b)</u> shall release any Person from:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Liability provided in or resulting from any agreement among any members of the Parent Group or any members of the SpinCo Group that is specified in <u>Section 2.7(b)</u> as not to terminate as of the Effective Time, or any other Liability specified in <u>Section 2.7(b)</u> as not to terminate as of the Effective Time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Liability for the sale, lease, construction or receipt of goods, property or services purchased, obtained or used in the ordinary course of business by a member of one Group from a member of the other Group prior to the Effective Time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Liability provided in or resulting from any other contract or agreement that is entered into after the Effective Time between one Party (or a member of such Party's Group), on the one hand, and the other Party (or a member of such Party's Group), on the other hand;

In addition, nothing contained in <u>Section 4.1(a)</u> shall release any member of the Parent Group from honoring its existing obligations to indemnify any director, officer or employee of SpinCo who was a director, officer or employee of any member of the Parent Group at or prior to the Effective Time, to the extent such director, officer or employee is or becomes a named defendant in any Action with respect to which such director, officer or employee was entitled to such indemnification pursuant to such existing obligations; it being understood that, if any portion of the underlying obligation giving rise to such Action is a SpinCo Liability, SpinCo shall indemnify, or procure from a Subsidiary the effective indemnification of, Parent for such portion of such Liability (including Parent's costs to indemnify the director, officer or employee) in accordance with the provisions set forth in this <u>Article IV</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *No Claims.* SpinCo shall not make, and shall not permit any other member of the SpinCo Group to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or indemnification, against Parent or any other member of the Parent Group, or any other Person released pursuant to <u>Section 4.1(a)</u>, with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to <u>Section 4.1(a)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) except to the extent it relates to a SpinCo Liability, any guarantee, indemnification or contribution obligation, surety bond or other credit support agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding for the benefit of any member of the Parent Group by any member of the SpinCo Group that survives following the Redemption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to statements made explicitly in Parent's name in the Information Statement (as amended or supplemented if SpinCo shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any other Disclosure Document; it being agreed that the statements set forth on <u>Schedule 4.3(e)</u> shall be the only statements made explicitly in Parent's name in the Information Statement or any other Disclosure Document, and all other information contained in the Information Statement or any other Disclosure Document shall be deemed to be information supplied by SpinCo.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.4 <u>Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties intend that any Liability subject to indemnification, contribution or reimbursement pursuant to this <u>Article IV</u> or <u>Article II</u> or <u>Article V</u> will be net of Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in, or Taxes imposed with respect to, the collection thereof) from any Person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of any indemnifiable Liability. Accordingly, the amount which either Party (an "<u>Indemnifying Party</u>") is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder (an "<u>Indemnitee</u>") will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in, or Taxes imposed with respect to, the collection thereof) from any Person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Liability. If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an "<u>Indemnity Payment</u>") required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or any other amounts in respect of such Liability, then within ten (10) days of receipt of such Insurance Proceeds, the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or such other amounts (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in, or Taxes imposed with respect to, the collection thereof) had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Parties agree that an insurer that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of any provision contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being understood that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a "windfall" (<u>i.e.</u>, a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification and contribution provisions hereof. Each Party shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the probability of success on the merits and the cost of expending such efforts, including attorneys' fees and expenses) to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds that may be collectible or recoverable respecting the Liabilities for which indemnification or contribution may be available under this <u>Article IV</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party may not delay making any indemnification payment required under the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise satisfying any indemnification obligation, pending the outcome of any Action to collect or recover Insurance Proceeds, and an Indemnitee need not attempt to collect any Insurance Proceeds prior to making a claim for indemnification or contribution or receiving any Indemnity Payment otherwise owed to it under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Parties intend that (i) any Liability subject to indemnification, contribution or reimbursement pursuant to <u>Article II</u>, this <u>Article IV</u> or <u>Article V</u> shall be increased to take into account any Taxes imposed on the Indemnitee (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to the receipt or accrual of an Indemnity Payment in respect of such Liability pursuant to and in accordance with Section 13.02 of the Tax Matters Agreement and (ii) Section 6.01 of the Tax Matters Agreement shall apply with respect to any Tax Benefit Actually Realized by an Indemnitee (or any of its Affiliates) as a result of incurring a Liability subject to indemnification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.5 <u>Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Notice of Claims.* If, at or following the Effective Time, an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a member of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a "<u>Third-Party Claim</u>") with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to <u>Section 4.2</u> or <u>Section 4.3</u>, or any other Section of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days (or sooner if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires) after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, including the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim for indemnification, and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of an Indemnitee to provide notice in accordance with this <u>Section 4.5(a)</u> shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent to which the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the Indemnitee's failure to provide notice in accordance with this <u>Section 4.5(a)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Control of Defense.* An Indemnifying Party may elect to defend (and seek to settle or compromise), at its own expense and with its own counsel, any Third-Party Claim; <u>provided</u> that, prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming and controlling the defense of such Third-Party Claim, it shall first confirm to the Indemnitee in writing that, assuming the facts presented to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnitee are true in all material respects, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnitee for any such damages to the extent resulting from, or arising out of, such Third-Party-Claim; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall have the right to assume control of any such Third-Party Claim: (i) relating to any actual or potential criminal matter or indictment; (ii) seeking an admission, finding or determination of wrongdoing or violation of Law by a Parent Indemnitee; (iii) initiated by a Governmental Authority; (iv) where a Parent Indemnitee has been advised by external counsel in writing that a conflict exists under applicable standards of professional conduct between a Parent Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim such that the Indemnifying Party cannot adequately represent the interests of a Parent Indemnitee; (v) where an adverse determination with respect to, or the Indemnifying Party's conduct of the defense of, such Third-Party Claim is reasonably likely to be materially adverse to a Parent Indemnitee's reputation or continuing business interests; (vi) where the Parent Indemnitee reasonably believes that a Parent Indemnitee will not be indemnified hereunder with respect to such Third-Party Claim or (vii) relating to the matters described in Item 3 of <u>Schedule 2.3(a)(vii)</u> for which indemnification may be sought by a Parent Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense and, in the course of defending such Third-Party Claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party discovers that the facts presented at the time the Indemnifying Party acknowledged its indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim were not true in any or all material respects and (ii) such untruth provides a reasonable basis for asserting that the Indemnifying Party does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim, then (A) the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by such acknowledgment, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall promptly thereafter provide the Indemnitee written notice of its assertion that it does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim and (C) the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with <u>Section 4.5(a)</u> (or sooner, if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnitee indicating whether the Indemnifying Party shall assume responsibility for defending the Third-Party Claim and specifying any reservations or exceptions to its defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from an Indemnitee as provided in <u>Section 4.5(a)</u>, then the Indemnitee that is the subject of such Third-Party Claim shall be entitled to continue to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim. If an Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim in accordance with this <u>Section 4.5(b)</u>, it shall not be a defense to any obligation to pay any amount in respect of such Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party was not consulted in the defense thereof, that such Indemnifying Party's views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, that such Indemnifying Party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or that such Third-Party Claim was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Allocation of Defense Costs*. If an Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then such Indemnifying Party shall be solely liable for all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall not be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the Indemnitee for any such fees or expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party during the course of the defense of such Third-Party Claim by such Indemnifying Party, regardless of any subsequent decision by the Indemnifying Party to reject or otherwise abandon its assumption of such defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee as provided in <u>Section 4.5(a)</u>, and the Indemnitee conducts and controls the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party has an indemnification obligation with respect to such Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Right to Monitor and Participate.* An Indemnitee that does not conduct and control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, or an Indemnifying Party that does not elect to defend any Third-Party Claim as contemplated hereby, nevertheless shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as necessary) of its own choosing to monitor and participate in (but not control) the defense of any Third-Party Claim for which it is a potential Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, and the provisions of <u>Section 4.5(c)</u> shall not apply to such fees and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to <u>Sections 6.7</u> and <u>6.8</u>, such Party shall cooperate with the Party entitled to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim in such defense and make available to the controlling Party, at the non-controlling Party's expense, all witnesses, information and materials in such Party's possession or under such Party's control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the controlling Party. In addition to the foregoing, and without limiting the rights of the Parent Indemnitee pursuant to the first sentence of <u>Section 4.5(b)</u>, if outside legal counsel to the Indemnitee reasonably determines in good faith that such Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party have actual or potential differing defenses or conflicts of interest between them that make joint representation inappropriate, then the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as necessary) and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, and in such case the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel for all Indemnitees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *No Settlement.* Neither Party may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which either Party may seek to be indemnified hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement or compromise is solely for monetary damages that are fully payable by the settling or compromising Party, does not involve any admission, finding or determination of wrongdoing or violation of Law by the other Party and provides for a full, unconditional and irrevocable release of the other Party from all Liability in connection with the Third-Party Claim; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, neither SpinCo nor any of its Affiliates may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim that is related to the matters described in Item 3 of <u>Schedule 2.3(a)(vii)</u> for which indemnification is being sought by a Parent Indemnitee without the prior written consent of Parent. The Parties hereby agree that if a Party delivers the other Party a written notice containing a proposal to settle or compromise a Third-Party Claim for which either Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder and the Party receiving such proposal does not respond in any manner to the Party presenting such proposal within thirty (30) days (or within any such shorter time period that may be required by applicable Law or court order) of receipt of such proposal, then the Party receiving such proposal shall be deemed to have consented to the terms of such proposal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Tax Matters Agreement Governs.* The above provisions of this <u>Section 4.5</u> and the provisions of <u>Section 4.6</u> do not apply to Taxes (it being understood and agreed that Taxes and Tax matters, including the control of Tax-related proceedings, shall be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the case of any conflict between this Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement in relation to any matters addressed by the Tax Matters Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement shall prevail.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.6 <u>Additional Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Timing of Payments.* Indemnification or contribution payments in respect of any Liabilities for which an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this <u>Article IV</u> shall be paid reasonably promptly (but in any event within forty-five (45) days of the final determination of the amount that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this <u>Article IV</u>) by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee as such Liabilities are incurred upon demand by the Indemnitee, including reasonably satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for the amount of such indemnification or contribution payment, including documentation with respect to calculations made and consideration of any Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of such Liabilities. The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this <u>Article IV</u> shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee and (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Notice of Direct Claims.* Any claim for indemnification or contribution under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the applicable Indemnifying Party; provided that the failure by an Indemnitee to so assert any such claim shall not prejudice the ability of the Indemnitee to do so at a later time, except to the extent (if any) that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced thereby. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30)-day period, such specified claim shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnifying Party under this <u>Section 4.6(b)</u> or, in the case of any written notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of the claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30)-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall, subject to the provisions of <u>Article VII</u>, be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such party as contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, without prejudice to its continuing rights to pursue indemnification or contribution hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Pursuit of Claims Against Third Parties.* If (i) a Party incurs any Liability arising out of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; (ii) an adequate legal or equitable remedy is not available for any reason against the other Party to satisfy the Liability incurred by the incurring Party; and (iii) a legal or equitable remedy may be available to the other Party against a Third Party for such Liability, then the other Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the incurring Party, at the incurring Party's expense, to permit the incurring Party to obtain the benefits of such legal or equitable remedy against the Third Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Subrogation.* In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Substitution.* In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to manage the Action as set forth in <u>Section 4.5</u> and this <u>Section 4.6</u>, and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all reasonable costs of defending the Action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys' fees, experts fees and all other external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.7 <u>Right of Contribution</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Contribution.* If any right of indemnification contained in <u>Section 4.2</u> or <u>Section 4.3</u> is held unenforceable or is unavailable for any reason, or is insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee in respect of any Liability for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by the Indemnitees as a result of such Liability (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the members of its Group, on the one hand, and the Indemnitees entitled to contribution, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Allocation of Relative Fault.* Solely for purposes of determining relative fault pursuant to this <u>Section 4.7</u>: (i) any fault associated with the business conducted with the Delayed SpinCo Assets or Delayed SpinCo Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a member of the Parent Group) or with the ownership, operation or activities of the SpinCo Business prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of Parent or any other member of the Parent Group; (ii) any fault associated with the business conducted with Delayed Parent Assets or Delayed Parent Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a member of the SpinCo Group) shall be deemed to be the fault of Parent and the other members of the Parent Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group; and (iii) any fault associated with the ownership, operation or activities of the Parent Business prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to be the fault of Parent and the other members of the Parent Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.8 <u>Covenant Not to Sue</u>. Each Party hereby covenants and agrees that none of it, the members of such Party's Group or any Person claiming through it shall bring suit or otherwise assert any claim against any Indemnitee, or assert a defense against any claim asserted by any Indemnitee, before any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative agency anywhere in the world, alleging that: (a) the assumption of any SpinCo Liabilities by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements is void or unenforceable for any reason; (b) the retention of any Parent Liabilities by Parent or a member of the Parent Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements is void or unenforceable for any reason or (c) the provisions of this <u>Article IV</u> are void or unenforceable for any reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.9 <u>Remedies Cumulative</u>. The remedies provided in this <u>Article IV</u> shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Article VII, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.10 <u>Survival of Indemnities</u>. The rights and obligations of each of Parent and SpinCo and their respective Indemnitees under this <u>Article IV</u> shall survive (a) the sale or other transfer by either Party or any member of its Group of any assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities; or (b) any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of all or substantially all of its Assets, restructuring, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction involving either Party or any of the members of its Group.

Article V<br> CERTAIN OTHER MATTERS

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1 <u>Insurance Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Cooperation*. Parent and SpinCo agree to cooperate in good faith to provide for an orderly transition of insurance coverage. Other than in respect of any breach by Parent of <u>Section 5.1(d)</u>, in no event shall Parent, any other member of the Parent Group or any Parent Indemnitee have any liability or obligation whatsoever to any member of the SpinCo Group in the event that any insurance policy or other contract or policy of insurance shall be terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason, shall be unavailable or inadequate to cover any Liability of any member of the SpinCo Group for any reason whatsoever or shall not be renewed or extended beyond the current expiration date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Ownership of Policies*. From and after the Effective Time, Parent or one (1) or more members of the Parent Group shall own all Parent Policies. From and after the Effective Time, SpinCo or one (1) or more members of the SpinCo Group shall own all SpinCo Policies. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to be an attempted assignment of or a change to any part of the ownership of the Parent Policies or shall be construed to waive any right or remedy of any member of the Parent Group in respect thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to be an attempted assignment of or a change to any part of the ownership of the SpinCo Policies or shall be construed to waive any right or remedy of any member of the SpinCo Group in respect thereof. No provision of this Agreement is intended to relieve any insurer of any Liability under any Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Shared Policies*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) From and after the Effective Time, with respect to any Liability incurred prior to the Effective Time by any member of the SpinCo Group that constitutes a SpinCo Liability, Parent will provide SpinCo with access to, and SpinCo may make claims under (and be entitled to applicable Insurance Proceeds resulting from or arising out of any such claims), the Parent Shared Policies, but solely to the extent that such policies provided coverage for members of the SpinCo Group or the SpinCo Business prior to the Effective Time; <u>provided</u> that such access to, and the right to make claims under, such insurance policies, shall be subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions of such insurance policies, including but not limited to any limits on coverage or scope, any deductibles, self-insured retentions and other fees and expenses, and shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) SpinCo shall notify Parent, as promptly as practicable, of any claim made by SpinCo pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)(i)</u>;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) SpinCo and the members of the SpinCo Group shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse Parent and the other members of the Parent Group for any deductibles, self-insured retention, fees, indemnity payments, settlements, judgments, legal fees, allocated claims expenses and claim handling fees, and other expenses incurred by Parent or any members of the Parent Group to the extent resulting from any access to, or any claims made by SpinCo or any other members of the SpinCo Group under, any insurance provided pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)(i)</u>, whether such claims are made by SpinCo, its employees or third Persons; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) SpinCo shall exclusively bear (and neither Parent nor any members of the Parent Group shall have any obligation to repay or reimburse SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group for) and shall be liable for all excluded, uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts of all such claims made by SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group under the policies as provided for in this <u>Section 5.1(c)(i)</u>. In the event an insurance policy aggregate is exhausted, or believed likely to be exhausted, due to noticed claims, the SpinCo Group, on the one hand, and the Parent Group, on the other hand, shall be responsible for their *pro rata* portion of the reinstatement premium, if any, based upon the losses of such Group submitted to Parent's insurance carrier(s) (including any submissions prior to the Effective Time). To the extent that the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group is allocated more than its *pro rata* portion of such premium due to the timing of losses submitted to Parent's insurance carrier(s), the other party shall promptly pay the first party an amount so that each Group has been properly allocated its *pro rata* portion of the reinstatement premium. Subject to the following sentence, a Party may elect not to reinstate the policy aggregate. In the event that a Party elects not to reinstate the policy aggregate, it shall provide prompt written notice to the other Party. A Party which elects to reinstate the policy aggregate shall be responsible for all reinstatement premiums and other costs associated with such reinstatement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) In the event that any member of the Parent Group incurs any Liability prior to or in respect of the period prior to the Effective Time for which such member of the Parent Group is entitled to coverage under the SpinCo Shared Policies, the same process pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)(i)</u> shall apply, substituting "Parent" for "SpinCo" and "SpinCo" for "Parent", including for purposes of the first sentence of <u>Section 5.1(c)(iv)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Except as provided in <u>Section 5.1(c)(i)</u>, from and after the Effective Time, neither SpinCo nor any member of the SpinCo Group shall have any rights to or under any of the Policies of Parent or any other member of the Parent Group. At the Effective Time, SpinCo shall have in effect all insurance programs required to comply with SpinCo's contractual obligations and such other Policies required by Law or as reasonably necessary or appropriate for companies operating a business similar to the SpinCo Business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Neither SpinCo nor any member of the SpinCo Group, in connection with making a claim under any Policies of Parent or any member of the Parent Group pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)</u>, shall take any action that would be reasonably likely to (i) have a material and adverse impact on the then-current relationship between Parent or any member of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and the applicable insurance company, on the other hand; (ii) result in the applicable insurance company terminating or materially reducing coverage, or materially increasing the amount of any premium owed by Parent or any member of the Parent Group under the applicable Policies; or (iii) otherwise compromise, jeopardize or interfere in any material respect with the rights of Parent or any member of the Parent Group under the applicable Policies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) All payments and reimbursements by SpinCo pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)</u> will be made within forty-five (45) days after SpinCo's receipt of an invoice therefor from Parent. Parent shall retain the exclusive right to control its Policies and insurance programs, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its Policies and insurance programs and to amend, modify or waive any rights under any such Policies and insurance programs, notwithstanding whether any such Policies or insurance programs apply to any SpinCo Liabilities or claims SpinCo has made or could make in the future, and no member of the SpinCo Group shall erode, exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with Parent's insurers with respect to any of the Parent Policies and insurance programs, or amend, modify or waive any rights under any such Parent Policies and insurance programs. SpinCo shall cooperate with Parent and share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit Parent to manage and conduct its insurance matters as Parent deems appropriate. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party and any member of its applicable Group has the sole right to settle or otherwise resolve third-party claims made against it or any member of its applicable Group covered under an applicable Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) SpinCo does hereby, for itself and each other member of the SpinCo Group, agree that no member of the Parent Group shall have any Liability whatsoever as a result of the Policies and insurance practices of Parent and the other members of the Parent Group as in effect at any time, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any Policy, or the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim or otherwise.

Article VI<br> EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1 <u>Agreement for Exchange of Information</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Parent and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer the SpinCo Books and Records and the Parent Books and Records, as applicable, to the other Party or another member of its Group prior to or at the Effective Time. To the extent any SpinCo Books and Records or Parent Books and Records are not so transferred at the Effective Time, the Transition Committee shall work in good faith to determine procedures for the delivery of such SpinCo Books and Records or Parent Books and Records, as applicable (the "<u>Agreed Procedures</u>"); provided that, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, the Parties will only be required to provide the SpinCo Books and Records and Parent Books and Records, as applicable, (i) in electronic form (unless such records only exist in non-electronic form, it being understood that neither Party shall be obligated to create electronic copies of any such records) and (ii) in the form, condition and format in which they then exist, and will not be required to perform any improvement, modification, conversion, updating or reformatting of any SpinCo Books and Records or Parent Books and Records. Following the Effective Time, the Parties shall, and shall cause the members of their respective Groups to, deliver the SpinCo Books and Records and the Parent Books and Records, as applicable, in accordance with the Agreed Procedures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to <u>Section 6.9</u> and any other applicable confidentiality obligations, each of Parent and SpinCo, on behalf of itself and each member of its Group, agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or make available, or cause to be provided or made available, to the other Party and the members of such other Party's Group, at any time before, at or after the Effective Time, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, any information (or a copy thereof) in the possession or under the control of such Party or its Group which the requesting Party or its Group requests to the extent that (i) such information relates to the SpinCo Business, or any SpinCo Asset or SpinCo Liability, if SpinCo is the requesting Party, or to the Parent Business, or any Parent Asset or Parent Liability, if Parent is the requesting Party; (ii) such information is required by the requesting Party to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; or (iii) such information is required by the requesting Party to comply with any obligation imposed by any Governmental Authority; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, in the event that the Party to whom the request has been made determines that any such provision of information could be detrimental to the Party providing the information, violate any Law or agreement, or waive any privilege available under applicable Law, including any attorney-client privilege, then the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit compliance with such obligations to the extent and in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. The Party providing information pursuant to this <u>Section 6.1</u> shall only be obligated to provide such information in the form, condition and format in which it then exists, and in no event shall such Party be required to perform any improvement, modification, conversion, updating or reformatting of any such information, and nothing in this <u>Section 6.1</u> shall expand the obligations of either Party under <u>Section 6.4</u>. Further, if either Party desires to make a Bulk Request, the requesting Party shall submit a written request to the other Party specifying in detail the information being requested and, following receipt of such written Bulk Request, the requested Party shall prepare and deliver a written response to the requesting Party within ten (10) business days of such receipt of such written Bulk Request, which response shall include the time period that the requested Party needs for delivery of the information included in such Bulk Request. "<u>Bulk Request</u>" shall mean a request (or series of related requests) (x) during the ninety (90) days immediately following the Closing, for more than one hundred (100) documents in a week and (y) thereafter, for more than one hundred (100) documents in a month.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, until the end of the SpinCo fiscal year during which the Redemption Date occurs (and for a reasonable period of time afterwards as required for each Party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year during which the Redemption Date occurs), each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other Party's information requests to enable, as applicable, (i) the other Party to meet its timetable for dissemination of its earnings releases, financial statements and management's assessment of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Items 307 and 308, respectively, of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act, or other applicable reporting obligations; and (ii) the other Party's accountants to timely complete their review of the quarterly financial statements and audit of the annual financial statements, including, to the extent applicable to such Party, its auditor's audit of its internal control over financial reporting and management's assessment thereof in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the SEC's and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board's rules and auditing standards thereunder and any other applicable Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2 <u>Ownership of Information</u>. The provision of any information pursuant to <u>Section 6.1</u> or <u>Section 6.7</u> shall not affect the ownership of such information (which shall be determined solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements) or constitute a grant of rights in or to any such information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3 <u>Compensation for Providing Information</u>. The Party requesting information agrees to reimburse the other Party for the reasonable costs, if any, of creating, gathering, copying, transporting and otherwise complying with the request with respect to such information (including any reasonable costs and expenses incurred in any review of information for purposes of protecting the Privileged Information of the providing Party or in connection with the restoration of backup media for purposes of providing the requested information). Except as may be otherwise specifically provided elsewhere in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties, such costs shall be computed in accordance with the providing Party's standard methodology and procedures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4 <u>Record Retention</u>. To facilitate the possible exchange of information pursuant to this <u>Article VI</u> and other provisions of this Agreement after the Effective Time, the Parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts, which shall be no less rigorous than those used for retention of such Party's own information, to retain all information of the other Party in their respective possession or control at the Effective Time (including all information stored in applicable servers, databases and physical archival locations) in substantial accordance with the policies of Parent as in effect at the Effective Time, including any legal hold or other document preservation obligation or such other policies as may be adopted by Parent after the Effective Time (provided that Parent notifies SpinCo in writing of any such change that is material, and such policies do not intentionally materially adversely discriminate against information of SpinCo as compared to information of Parent). No Party will destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any information which the other Party may have the right to obtain pursuant to this Agreement prior to the end of the retention period set forth in such policies without first notifying the other Party of the proposed destruction and giving the other Party the opportunity to take possession of such information prior to such destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Tax Matters Agreement will exclusively govern the retention of Tax-related records and the exchange of Tax-related information, and the Employee Matters Agreement will exclusively govern the retention of employment and benefits related records.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.5 <u>Limitations of Liability</u>. Neither Party shall have any Liability to the other Party in the event that any information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement is found to be inaccurate in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct by the Party providing such information. Neither Party shall have any Liability to any other Party if any information is destroyed after commercially reasonable efforts by such Party to comply with the provisions of <u>Section 6.4</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.6 <u>Other Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The rights and obligations granted under this <u>Article VI</u> are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange, retention or confidential treatment of information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any party that receives, pursuant to a request for information in accordance with this <u>Article VI</u>, Tangible Information that is not relevant to its request shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) return it to the providing Party or, at the providing Party's request, destroy such Tangible Information; and (ii) thereafter, deliver to the providing Party written confirmation that such Tangible Information was returned or destroyed, as the case may be, which confirmation shall be signed by an authorized representative of the requesting Party.

The requesting Party shall bear all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If an Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or to seek to compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim, the other Party shall make available to such Indemnifying Party, upon written request, the former, current and future directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the members of its respective Group as witnesses or to provide information and any books, records or other documents within its control or which it otherwise has the ability to make available without undue burden, to the extent that any such person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with such defense, settlement or compromise, or such prosecution, evaluation or pursuit, as the case may be, and shall otherwise cooperate in such defense, settlement or compromise, or such prosecution, evaluation or pursuit, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties shall cooperate and consult to the extent reasonably necessary with respect to any Actions described in clauses (a) or (b) of this <u>Section 6.7</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The obligation of the Parties to provide witnesses and information pursuant to this <u>Section 6.7</u> is intended to be interpreted in a manner so as to facilitate cooperation and shall include the obligation to provide directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents as witnesses or to provide information without regard to whether such person or the employer of such person could assert a possible business conflict (subject to the exception set forth in the first sentence of <u>Section 6.7(a)</u>).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.8 <u>Privileged Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Effective Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group, and that each of the members of the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such services for the purposes of asserting all privileges which may be asserted under applicable Law in connection therewith. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services will be provided following the Effective Time, which services will be rendered solely for the benefit of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group, as the case may be. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party shall authorize the delivery to and/or retention by the other Party of materials existing as of the Effective Time that are necessary for such other Party to perform or receive such services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Parties agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Parent shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to the Parent Business and not to the SpinCo Business, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the Parent Group or any member of the SpinCo Group. Parent shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to any Parent Liabilities resulting from any Actions that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the Parent Group or any member of the SpinCo Group;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) SpinCo shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to the SpinCo Business and not to the Parent Business, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or any member of the Parent Group. SpinCo shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to any SpinCo Liabilities resulting from any Actions that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or any member of the Parent Group; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If the Parties do not agree as to whether certain information is Privileged Information, then such information shall be treated as Privileged Information, and the Party that believes that such information is Privileged Information shall be entitled to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any such information unless the Parties otherwise agree. The Parties shall use the procedures set forth in <u>Article VII</u> to resolve any disputes as to whether any information relates solely to the Parent Business, solely to the SpinCo Business, or to both the Parent Business and the SpinCo Business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Subject to the remaining provisions of this <u>Section 6.8</u>, the Parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege or immunity with respect to all privileges and immunities not allocated pursuant to <u>Section 6.8(b)</u> and all privileges and immunities relating to any Actions or other matters that involve both Parties (or one (1) or more members of their respective Groups) and in respect of which both Parties have Liabilities under this Agreement, and that no such shared privilege or immunity may be waived by either Party without the consent of the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any Dispute arises between the Parties or any members of their respective Groups regarding whether a privilege or immunity should be waived to protect or advance the interests of either Party and/or any member of their respective Groups, each Party agrees that it shall (i) negotiate with the other Party in good faith; (ii) endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Party; and (iii) not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other Party. Further, each Party specifically agrees that it shall not withhold its consent to the waiver of a privilege or immunity for any purpose except in good faith to protect its own legitimate interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In the event of any Dispute between Parent and SpinCo, or any members of their respective Groups, either Party may waive a privilege in which the other Party or member of such other Party's Group has a shared privilege, without obtaining consent pursuant to <u>Section 6.8(c)</u>; <u>provided</u> that the Parties intend such waiver of a shared privilege to be effective only as to the use of information with respect to the Action between the Parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and is not intended to operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to any Third Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Upon receipt by either Party, or by any member of its respective Group, of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of Privileged Information subject to a shared privilege or immunity or as to which another Party has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege or immunity, or if either Party obtains knowledge that any of its, or any member of its respective Group's, current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request (which notice shall be delivered to such other Party no later than five (5) business days following the receipt of any such subpoena, discovery or other request) and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the Privileged Information and to assert any rights it or they may have under this <u>Section 6.8</u> or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Any furnishing of, or access or transfer of, any information pursuant to this Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of Parent and SpinCo set forth in this <u>Section 6.8</u> and in <u>Section 6.9</u> to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain all applicable privileges and immunities. The Parties agree that their respective rights to any access to information, witnesses and other Persons, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement, and the transfer of Privileged Information between the Parties and members of their respective Groups as needed pursuant to this Agreement, shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) In connection with any matter contemplated by <u>Section 6.7</u> or this <u>Section 6.8</u>, the Parties agree to, and to cause the applicable members of their Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain their respective separate and joint privileges and immunities, including by executing joint defense and/or common interest agreements where necessary or useful for this purpose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Confidentiality.* Subject to <u>Section 6.10</u>, and without prejudice to any longer period or separate provisions that may be provided for in any of the Ancillary Agreements, from and after the Effective Time until the three (3)-year anniversary of the Effective Time, each of Parent and SpinCo, on behalf of itself and each member of its respective Group, agrees to hold, and to cause its respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to Parent's confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Effective Time, all confidential and proprietary information concerning the other Party or any member of the other Party's Group or their respective businesses that is either in its possession (including confidential and proprietary information in its possession prior to the Redemption Date) or furnished by any such other Party or any member of such Party's Group or their respective Representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or otherwise, and shall not use any such confidential and proprietary information other than for such purposes as may be expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder, except, in each case, to the extent that such confidential and proprietary information has been (i) in the public domain or generally available to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Party or any member of such Party's Group or any of their respective Representatives in violation of this Agreement, (ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by such Party (or any member of such Party's Group) which sources are not themselves known by such Party (or any member of such Party's Group) to be bound by a confidentiality obligation or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality with respect to such confidential and proprietary information, or (iii) independently developed or generated without reference to or use of any proprietary or confidential information of the other Party or any member of such Party's Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing three (3)-year period, Parent's and SpinCo's obligations with respect to confidential and proprietary information that constitutes Trade Secrets shall survive and continue for so long as such confidential and proprietary information retains its status as a Trade Secret. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, if any confidential and proprietary information of one Party or any member of its Group is disclosed to the other Party or any member of such other Party's Group in connection with providing services to such first Party or any member of such first Party's Group under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, then such disclosed confidential and proprietary information shall be used only as required to perform such services. Each Party shall be liable for any failure by its respective Representatives to comply with the restrictions on use and disclosure of confidential information contained in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *No Release; Return or Destruction.* Each Party agrees not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any information addressed in <u>Section 6.9(a)</u> to any other Person, except its Representatives who need to know such information in their capacities as such (who shall be advised of their obligations hereunder with respect to such information), and except in compliance with <u>Section 6.10</u>. Without limiting the foregoing, when any such information is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, and is no longer subject to any legal hold or other document preservation obligation, each Party will promptly after request of the other Party either return to the other Party all such information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or notify the other Party in writing that it has destroyed such information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon); <u>provided</u>, that the Parties may retain electronic back-up versions of such information maintained on routine computer system backup tapes, disks or other backup storage devices or physical archival back-up versions of such information maintained in storage locations; <u>provided further</u>, that any such information so retained shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Third-Party Information; Privacy or Data Protection Laws.* Each Party acknowledges that it and members of its Group may presently have and, following the Effective Time, may gain access to or possession of confidential or proprietary information of, or legally-protected personal information (including personal health information) relating to, Third Parties (i) that was received under privacy policies or notices and/or confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements entered into between such Third Parties, on the one hand, and the other Party or members of such other Party's Group, on the other hand, prior to the Effective Time; or (ii) that, as between the two Parties, was originally collected by the other Party or members of such other Party's Group and that may be subject to and protected by privacy policies or notices, as well as applicable data privacy Laws or other applicable Laws. Each Party agrees that it shall hold, protect and use, and shall cause the members of its Group and its and their respective Representatives to hold, protect and use, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary information of, or legally-protected personal information (including personal health information) relating to, Third Parties in accordance with the applicable privacy policies or notices and applicable data privacy Laws or other applicable Laws and the terms of any agreements that were either entered into before the Effective Time or affirmative commitments or representations that were made before the Effective Time by, between or among the other Party or members of the other Party's Group, on the one hand, and such Third Parties, on the other hand.

In the event that such other Party fails to receive such appropriate protective order in a timely manner and the Party receiving the request or demand reasonably determines that its failure to disclose or provide such information shall actually prejudice the Party receiving the request or demand, then the Party that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by its counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority, and the disclosing Party shall promptly provide the other Party with a copy of the information so disclosed, in the same form and format so disclosed, together with a list of all Persons to whom such information was disclosed, in each case to the extent legally permitted.

SpinCo covenants and agrees that, from the Effective Time until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Redemption Date, it will not, and will cause each other member of the SpinCo Group not to, directly or indirectly, own, invest in, operate, manage, control, participate or engage in any Prohibited Business without the prior written consent of Parent; <u>provided</u>, that nothing in this <u>Section 8.3(a)</u> will prohibit (i) the ownership by SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group of debt, equity or any other class of securities of any Person that owns, invests in, operates, manages, controls, participates or engages directly or indirectly in a Prohibited Business, provided ownership of such securities (either directly, indirectly or upon conversion) is less than 5% of such class of securities of such Person, (ii) SpinCo from engaging in a Prohibited Business to the extent that SpinCo's revenues in respect of the Prohibited Business represent no more than 1% of SpinCo's consolidated revenues or (iii) any member of the SpinCo Group from exercising its rights or performing or complying with its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Remedies; Enforcement</u>. SpinCo acknowledges and agrees that (i) injury to Parent from any breach of the obligations of SpinCo set forth in this <u>Section 8.3</u> would be irreparable and impossible to measure and (ii) the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach of this <u>Section 8.3</u>, including monetary damages, would therefore be inadequate compensation for any loss and Parent shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief in accordance with Section 10.13, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. SpinCo understands and acknowledges that the restrictive covenants and other agreements contained in this <u>Section 8.3</u> are an essential part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. It is the intent of the Parties that the provisions of this <u>Section 8.3</u> shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under applicable Law applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provision or portion of this <u>Section 8.3</u> shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision or portion thereof shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to render such provision or portion valid and enforceable, such amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of such provision or portion thereof in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made. Any such adjudication of invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision or portion thereof in any other jurisdiction where it remains lawful and enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The term "<u>Prohibited Business</u>" shall mean, for purposes of this <u>Section 8.3</u>, the research, commercialization, development, manufacture, use, marketing or distribution of Acthar® Gel or Xiaflex®, including any product containing corticotropin or collagenase as an active ingredient, and any analog, reformulation, improvement, enhancement, combination, refinement, recombinant form, fragment, or modified form of any of the foregoing, or any product that is a generic or biosimilar, generically equivalent or functionally or therapeutically equivalent or similar to, or intended for the same or any similar therapeutic indication, use or patient population as either such product.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.4 <u>Patent Covenant Not to Sue</u>. It is the current understanding of the Parties that neither the conduct of the SpinCo Business as of the Effective Time practices any Patents included in the Parent Assets nor the conduct of the Parent Business as of the Effective Time practices any Patents included in the SpinCo Assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party hereby covenants and agrees, effective as of the Effective Time, that neither it nor its Group shall bring any Action against the other Party or its Group or their direct customers or suppliers alleging that (i) (where such Action is brought against any member of the SpinCo Group or its direct customers or suppliers) the conduct of the businesses of any member of the SpinCo Group that is substantially the same as the conduct of the SpinCo Business as of the Effective Time infringes a Covered Parent Patent or (ii) (where such Action is brought against any member of the Parent Group or its direct customers or suppliers) the conduct of the businesses of the Parent Group that is substantially the same as the conduct of the Parent Business as of the Effective Time infringes any Covered SpinCo Patent. A "<u>Covered Parent Patent</u>" means a Patent included in the Parent Assets that was practiced, or absent a right thereto would have been infringed, by the conduct of the SpinCo Business as of the Effective Time. A "<u>Covered SpinCo Patent</u>" means a Patent included in the SpinCo Assets that was practiced, or absent a right thereto would have been infringed, by the conduct of the Parent Business as of the Effective Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Effective as of the Effective Time, SpinCo, on behalf of itself and the SpinCo Group, hereby grants to each member of the Parent Group a worldwide, irrevocable, non-terminable, non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, non-transferable (except as provided pursuant to <u>Section 8.5(g)</u>), non-sublicensable (except as provided pursuant to <u>Section 8.5(e)</u>) license under all Intellectual Property Rights (other than Patents, Marks, Internet Properties and Registered IP) included in the SpinCo Assets that are owned by the SpinCo Group and that are used or held for use in and related to the Parent Business to use, reproduce, distribute, disclose, make, modify, improve, display, perform, create derivative works of and otherwise exploit the Technology included in the Parent Assets, in each case, solely with respect to the Parent Business and natural evolutions thereof; it being understood that the foregoing license does not require the delivery or disclosure to the Parent Group of any assets know-how or Technology.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>License Term</u>. Each license granted under <u>Section 8.5(a)</u> and <u>Section 8.5(b)</u>, respectively, will continue until the final expiration, abandonment, or entering into the public domain of all Intellectual Property Rights licensed under such license.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Transfer of Licenses by Licensors</u>. Nothing set forth herein shall restrict the Parent Group or SpinCo Group, as the case may be (each, in their capacities as licensors under this <u>Section 8.5</u>, the "<u>Licensors</u>"), from transferring, abandoning, assigning, pledging or licensing any Intellectual Property Rights owned by them and licensed hereunder to the SpinCo Group or Parent Group, respectively (each, in their capacities as licensees under this <u>Section 8.5</u>, the "<u>Licensees</u>"); <u>provided</u> that any transfer, assignment, pledge or license of such Intellectual Property Rights shall be subject to the licenses granted in this <u>Section 8.5</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Sublicensing</u>. No Licensee may sublicense the license granted to them under this <u>Section 8.5</u> to a third party except (i) as provided pursuant to <u>Section 8.5(f)</u>, or (ii) in connection with the operation of their business in the ordinary course and on terms that are no less protective and restrictive than the terms under which Licensee licenses its own like Intellectual Property Rights. Without limiting the foregoing, any sublicense, distribution, display, performance or other disclosure to a third party by any Licensee of any Trade Secrets or confidential information licensed to them under this <u>Section 8.5</u> shall be subject to the following: (A) each Licensee shall, and shall require its sublicensees or other third parties to whom it provides or discloses the Trade Secrets and confidential information licensed to the Licensee under this <u>Section 8.5</u>, to treat such Trade Secrets and confidential information with at least the same degree of care as such Licensee treats their own similar Trade Secrets and confidential information, but in no event with less than reasonable care; and (B) shall not disclose any Trade Secrets or confidential information licensed to Licensee under this <u>Section 8.5</u> to a third party, except in connection with the disclosure of such Licensee's own confidential information or Trade Secrets of at least comparable importance and value; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Rights of Subsidiaries</u>. Any licenses granted pursuant to this <u>Section 8.5</u> extend to each entity that is Parent or SpinCo's Subsidiary, as applicable, but only for so long as such entity is a Subsidiary of Parent or SpinCo, respectively, and, accordingly, except as provided in this <u>Section 8.5(f)</u>, the license to such entity shall terminate upon such entity ceasing to be a Subsidiary of such Party. If a Party divests a Subsidiary, or business unit, actively engaged in a business (including in a sale to a third party or in a public offering) such that such entity is no longer a Subsidiary of, or such business unit is no longer owned by, such Party, upon providing written notice of such divestiture to the other Party, such Party may grant the divested entity or new owner of such business unit a sublicense under the licenses granted to such Party pursuant to this <u>Section 8.5</u>, provided that such sublicense shall only extend to the products, services and other business operations of such divested entity or business unit at the time it ceased to be a Subsidiary or business unit of such Party, and natural evolutions thereof that are of the same general type, and not to the products, services or other business operations of any third party. Such sublicense granted to the divested entity or new owner of such business unit in accordance with the foregoing shall not affect or limit the licenses granted to the Licensees or the obligations and duties of the Licensees hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Transfer of Licenses by Licensees</u>. Except as expressly set forth herein, no Licensee may assign, transfer, or permit the assumption of the licenses nor any of the rights or benefits granted to them pursuant to this <u>Section 8.5</u> directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of, in the case of assignment or transfer by the Parent Group Licensees, SpinCo or, in the case of the assignment or transfer by the SpinCo Group Licensees, Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Licensee Party may assign such licenses to a third party, or permit a third party to assume such licenses, in whole or in relevant part, in connection with, or as a result of, the acquisition of such Licensee Party (whether by equity or asset sale or merger or otherwise) by, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of such Licensee Party to which the license relates to, such third party; <u>provided</u> that such third party assumes all of the applicable obligations of such Licensee Party by operation of law or by express assignment, as the case may be. Any purported assignment or transfer of such licenses, rights or benefits in violation of this <u>Section 8.5(g)</u> shall be null and void *ab initio*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Rights in Bankruptcy</u>. All rights and licenses granted to a Licensee Party as licensee under this <u>Section 8.5</u> are, for purposes of section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "<u>Bankruptcy Code</u>"), licenses of intellectual property within the scope of section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Licensor acknowledges that each Licensee, as a licensee of such rights and licenses hereunder, will retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code. Each Licensor Party irrevocably waives all arguments and defenses arising under 11 U.S.C. § 365(c)(1) or successor provisions to the effect that applicable Law excuses such Party from accepting performance from or rendering performance to an entity other than the debtor or debtor-in-possession as a basis for opposing assumption of this Agreement in a case under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code to the extent that such consent is required under 11 U.S.C. § 365(c)(1) or any successor statute.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Except for the rights and licenses to Intellectual Property Rights expressly set forth in <u>Section 8.2</u>, <u>Section 8.4</u> or this <u>Section 8.5</u> (which rights and licenses are, for the avoidance of doubt, non-exclusive), no rights or licenses to Intellectual Property Rights are granted hereunder by a Party or Licensor to the other Party or Licensee by implication, estoppel or otherwise. None of the rights or licenses to Intellectual Property Rights granted to the SpinCo Group under <u>Section 8.4</u> or this <u>Section 8.5</u> shall extend to the research, development, manufacture, commercialization, use, marketing or distribution of Acthar® Gel or Xiaflex®, including any product containing corticotropin or collagenase as an active ingredient, and any analog, reformulation, improvement, enhancement, combination, refinement, recombinant form, fragment, or modified form of any of the foregoing, or any product that is a generic or biosimilar, generically equivalent or functionally or therapeutically equivalent or similar to either such product.

Article IX<br> TERMINATION

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1 <u>Termination</u>. This Agreement and all Ancillary Agreements may be terminated and the Redemption may be amended, modified or abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time by Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, without the approval or consent of any other Person, including SpinCo. After the Effective Time, this Agreement may not be terminated except by an agreement in writing signed by a duly authorized officer of each of the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2 <u>Effect of Termination</u>. In the event of any termination of this Agreement prior to the Effective Time, no Party (nor any of its directors, officers or employees) shall have any Liability or further obligation to the other Party by reason of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 <u>Counterparts; Entire Agreement; Corporate Power</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement may be executed in one (1) or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one (1) or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) each such Person has the requisite corporate or other power and authority and has taken all corporate or other action necessary in order to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party have been duly executed and delivered by it and constitute valid and binding agreements of it enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Party acknowledges that it and each other Party may execute this Agreement and certain of the Ancillary Agreements by facsimile, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature, and that delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (whether executed by manual, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature) by facsimile or by e-mail in portable document format (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of such executed counterpart of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement. Each Party expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature (regardless of whether delivered in person, by mail, by courier, by facsimile or by e-mail in portable document format (PDF)) made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature delivered in person, agrees that it will not assert that any such signature or delivery is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were signed manually and delivered in person and agrees that, at the reasonable request of the other Party at any time, it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof) and delivered in person, by mail or by courier.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 <u>Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement and, unless expressly provided therein, each Ancillary Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related hereto or thereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or to the inducement of any party to enter herein and therein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of Delaware including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Party hereto irrevocably agrees that any litigation relating to any Dispute with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other Party hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, solely in the case that the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) (the "<u>Chosen Courts</u>"). Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Dispute for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Chosen Courts. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Dispute with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any claim that (A) the Dispute in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Dispute is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3 <u>Assignability</u>. Except as set forth in any Ancillary Agreement, this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and the parties thereto, respectively, and their respective successors and permitted assigns; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that neither Party nor any such party thereto may assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement without the express prior written consent of the other Party hereto or other parties thereto, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such consent shall be required for the assignment of a Party's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (except as may be otherwise provided in any such Ancillary Agreement) in whole (i.e., the assignment of a Party's rights and obligations under this Agreement and all Ancillary Agreements at the same time) in connection with a change of control of a Party so long as the resulting, surviving or transferee Person assumes all the obligations of the relevant party thereto by operation of Law or pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4 <u>Third-Party Beneficiaries</u>. Except for the indemnification rights under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement of any Parent Indemnitee or SpinCo Indemnitee in their respective capacities as such, (a) the provisions of this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties and are not intended to confer upon any Person except the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder, and (b) there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement and neither this Agreement nor any Ancillary Agreement shall provide any Third Party with any remedy, claim, Liability, reimbursement, claim of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.5 <u>Notices</u>. All notices, requests, claims, demands or other communications under this Agreement and, to the extent applicable and unless otherwise provided therein, under each of the Ancillary Agreements, shall be in writing and shall be given or made (and except as provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made upon receipt) by delivery in person, by overnight courier service, by certified mail, return receipt requested, by electronic mail ("<u>e-mail</u>"), so long as confirmation of receipt of such e-mail is requested and received, to the respective Parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this <u>Section 10.5</u>):

A Party may, by notice to the other Party, change the address to which such notices are to be given or made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.6 <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof or thereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.7 <u>Force Majeure</u>. No Party shall be deemed in default of this Agreement or, unless otherwise expressly provided therein, any Ancillary Agreement for any delay or failure to fulfill any obligation (other than a payment obligation) hereunder or thereunder so long as and to the extent to which any delay or failure in the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure. In the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance of such obligations (other than a payment obligation) shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such event, (a) provide written notice to the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.8 <u>No Set-Off</u>. Except as expressly set forth in any Ancillary Agreement or as otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties, neither Party nor any member of such Party's Group shall have any right of set-off or other similar rights with respect to (a) any amounts received pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; or (b) any other amounts claimed to be owed to the other Party or any member of its Group arising out of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.9 <u>Expenses</u>. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties, all fees, costs and expenses incurred on or prior to the Effective Time in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and implementation of this Agreement, including the Separation and the Redemption, and any Ancillary Agreement, the Separation, the Information Statement, the Separation Step Plan and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will be borne by the Party or its applicable Subsidiary incurring such fees, costs or expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.10 <u>Headings</u>. The article, section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement and in the Ancillary Agreements are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.11 <u>Survival</u>. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the covenants, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement, and Liability for the breach of any obligations contained herein, shall survive the Separation and the Redemption and shall remain in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.12 <u>Waivers of Default</u>. Waiver by a Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Party. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.13 <u>Specific Performance</u>. Subject to the provisions of <u>Article VII</u>, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the Party or Parties who are, or are to be, thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief in respect of its or their rights under this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The Parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.14 <u>Amendments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Commencing as of the Effective Time, Provider agrees to provide, or to cause one (1) or more of its Subsidiaries to provide, to Recipient, or any Subsidiary of Recipient, the applicable services (the "<u>Services</u>") set forth on the Schedules hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If, after the date of this Agreement, Recipient identifies a service that Provider provided to Recipient within twelve (12) months prior to the Redemption Date that Recipient reasonably needs in order for the SpinCo Business or the Parent Business, as applicable, to continue to operate in substantially the same manner in which the SpinCo Business or the Parent Business, as applicable, operated prior to the Redemption Date, and such service was not included on the Schedules hereto (other than an Excluded Service) and Recipient provides written notice to Provider within seventy-five (75) days after the Redemption Date requesting such additional services, then Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide such requested additional services (such requested additional services, the "<u>Additional Services</u>"); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that Provider shall not be obligated to provide any Additional Service (A) if Provider does not, in its commercially reasonable judgment, have adequate resources to provide such Additional Service (taking into consideration any offer by Recipient to pay for such additional resources, subject to the limitations set forth in <u>Section 2.09</u>), (B) if the provision of such Additional Service would significantly disrupt the operation of Provider's or its Subsidiaries' businesses, (C) if the Parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, are unable to reach agreement on the terms thereof (including with respect to Charges therefor), (D) if Recipient is reasonably in a position to provide such Additional Services to itself or obtain such Additional Services from a Third Party on the same time frame as such services would be available from Provider, or (E) if the Parties, despite the use of commercially reasonable efforts, are unable to obtain a required Third-Party consent, license or approval for such Additional Service or the performance of such Additional Service by Provider would constitute a violation of any applicable Law. In connection with any request for Additional Services in accordance with this <u>Section 2.01(b)</u>, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith the terms of a supplement to the applicable Schedule, which terms shall be consistent with the terms of, and the pricing methodology used for, similar Services provided under this Agreement, if applicable. Upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties, the supplement to the applicable Schedule shall describe in reasonable detail the nature, scope, Service Period(s), termination provisions and other terms applicable to such Additional Services in a manner similar to that in which the Services are described in the existing Schedules. Each supplement to the applicable Schedule, as agreed to in writing by the Parties, shall be deemed part of this Agreement as of the date of such agreement and the Additional Services set forth therein shall be deemed "Services" provided under this Agreement, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 2.02. <u>Performance of Services</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to <u>Section 2.05</u>, Provider shall perform, or cause to be performed (directly, through one or more of its Subsidiaries, or through a Third-Party service provider in accordance herewith) all Services in a manner that is based on its past practice and that is substantially similar in nature, quality and timeliness to analogous services provided by or on behalf of Provider prior to the Effective Time, if applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Nothing in this Agreement shall require Provider to perform or cause to be performed any Service to the extent that the manner of such performance would constitute a violation of any applicable Law or any existing contract or agreement with a Third Party. If Provider is or becomes aware of the potential for any such violation, Provider shall promptly advise Recipient of such potential violation, and the Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to mutually seek an alternative that addresses such potential violation. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary Third-Party consents, licenses or approvals required under any existing contract or agreement with a Third Party to allow Provider to perform, or cause to be performed, all Services to be provided hereunder in accordance with the standards set forth in this <u>Section 2.02</u>. Recipient shall reimburse Provider for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (if any) incurred by Provider or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with obtaining any such Third-Party consent, license or approval that is required to allow Provider to perform or cause to be performed such Services. If, with respect to a Service, the Parties, despite the use of such commercially reasonable efforts, are unable to obtain a required Third-Party consent, license or approval or the performance of such Service by Provider would constitute a violation of any applicable Law, Provider shall have no obligation whatsoever to perform or cause to be performed such Service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Unless otherwise provided with respect to a specific Service on the Schedules hereto, Provider shall not be obligated to perform or cause to be performed any Service in a manner that is materially more burdensome (with respect to service quality, quantity or timeliness) than analogous services provided by Provider or its applicable functional group or Subsidiary (collectively referred to as the "<u>Level of Service</u>") during the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, RECIPIENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS- IS" BASIS, THAT RECIPIENT ASSUMES ALL RISK AND LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ITS USE OF AND RELIANCE UPON THE SERVICES, AND THAT PROVIDER, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY OTHER PERSON ON THEIR BEHALF MAKE NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS, STATEMENTS OR COVENANTS, OR GRANT ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES. PROVIDER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR THE NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Party shall be responsible for its own compliance with any and all Laws applicable to its performance under this Agreement. No Party shall knowingly take any action in violation of any such applicable Law that results in Liability being imposed on the other Party.

Section 2.03. <u>Charges for Services</u>. Unless otherwise provided with respect to a specific Service on the Schedules hereto, Recipient shall or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to pay Provider (or its applicable Subsidiary, as directed by Provider) a fee (either one (1)-time or recurring) for such Services (or category of Services, as applicable) (each fee, constituting a "<u>Charge</u>" and, collectively, "<u>Charges</u>"), which Charges shall (i) be set forth on the applicable Schedules hereto, or if not so set forth, then, unless otherwise provided with respect to a specific Service on the Schedule hereto, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a Charge which shall be consistent with the pricing methodology used for similar Services provided under this Agreement, if applicable and (ii) also include any reasonable and documented costs incurred by Provider to the extent not otherwise included in clause (i) above. During the term of this Agreement, the amount of a Charge for any Service may be modified in good faith to the extent of (a) any adjustments mutually agreed to by the Parties, (b) any adjustments due to a change in Level of Service requested by Recipient and agreed upon by Provider, (c) any adjustment in the rates or charges imposed by any Third-Party provider that is providing, or is related to the provision of, Services and (d) any adjustments due to error(s) in determining the amount of a Charge, as determined by Provider acting in good faith; <u>provided</u> that Provider will notify Recipient in writing of any such change in rates at least forty-five (45) days prior to the effective date of such rate change, unless the Service Period for such Service is less than forty-five (45) days, in which case the forty-five (45) day notification period shall be reduced to the number of days of the respective Service Period for such Service minus 15 days. Together with any invoice for Charges, Provider shall provide Recipient with reasonable documentation, including any additional documentation reasonably requested by Recipient to the extent that such documentation is in Provider's or its Subsidiaries' possession or control, to support the calculation of such Charges. If Recipient disputes any such change, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 7.16. Charges shown as charges for a specific period of time, e.g., monthly, quarterly, yearly, etc., shall be prorated for any period of less than such specific period of time as may be permitted hereunder.

Section 2.04. <u>Reimbursement for Out-of-Pocket Costs and Expenses</u>. Recipient shall reimburse Provider for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Provider or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing the Services (including reasonable travel-related expenses) to the extent that such costs and expenses are not reflected in the Charges for such Services; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any such cost or expense in excess of one thousand dollars ($1,000) individually, or ten thousand dollars ($10,000) in the aggregate, shall be submitted to Recipient in writing at least five (5) business days in advance of the incurrence of such cost or expense, and Recipient shall have forty-eight (48) hours upon receipt to reject the incurrence of such cost or expense in writing; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that if Recipient rejects the incurrence of such cost or expense and the incurrence of such cost or expense is reasonably necessary for Provider to provide such Service in accordance with the standards set forth in this Agreement, Provider shall not be required to perform such Service. Any authorized travel-related expenses incurred in performing the Services shall be charged to Recipient in accordance with Provider's then-applicable business travel policies.

Section 2.05. <u>Changes in the Performance of Services</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the performance standards for Services set forth in <u>Sections 2.02(a)</u>, <u>2.02(b)</u> and <u>2.02(c)</u>, Provider may from time to time, in its good faith determination, modify, change or enhance the manner, nature, quality and/or standard of care of any Service provided to Recipient to the extent Provider is making similar changes in performing analogous services for itself or its Affiliates or to the extent that such change is in connection with the relocation of Provider's employees and if Provider furnishes to Recipient reasonable prior written notice (in content and timing) of such changes; <u>provided</u> that if such change shall materially and adversely affect the timeliness or quality of, or the Charges for, the applicable Service, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to agree on modifications to such Services as are commercially reasonable in consideration of the circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the provision of the Services is subject to any upgrades, changes and modifications that Provider may implement to its information technology services in the ordinary course or otherwise in connection with the relocation of its employees (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such upgrades, changes and modifications pursuant to the requirements of a Third Party). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if as a result of requirements of applicable Law (including any changes under the requirements of applicable Law) or guidance by any Governmental Authority, Provider must, in its good-faith determination, modify, change or enhance the manner, nature, quality and/or standard of care of any Service provided to Recipient, Provider shall provide reasonably prompt notice to such Recipient and shall have the right to make such modifications, changes or enhancements, in each case solely to the extent necessary to comply with such applicable Law or guidance and, to the extent legally permissible, provide the Recipient with advance notice, as promptly as practicable, setting forth in reasonable detail the modifications contemplated and the reasons therefor. Any incremental cost or expense incurred by Provider (for the avoidance of doubt, in excess of any cost or expense that would be incurred in the absence of the performance of the Services hereunder) in making any such good-faith modification, change or enhancement to the Services performed hereunder or in providing such Services on an ongoing basis shall be paid by Recipient to the Provider in accordance with <u>Article III</u> in addition to the charges for the Services included on the applicable Schedule.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to the limitations on Additional Services set forth in <u>Section 2.01(b)</u>, Recipient may request a change to a Service by submitting a request in writing to Provider describing the proposed change in reasonable detail. Provider shall respond to the request as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within ten (10) days and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree to such request, unless the change requested would adversely impact the liability or risk associated with providing or receiving the applicable Service, or cause any other disruption or adverse impact on the business or operations of Provider or its Affiliates. Each agreed upon change shall be documented by an amendment in writing to the applicable Schedule.

Section 2.06. <u>Transitional Nature of Services</u>. The Parties acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services and that Recipient shall be responsible with respect to transitioning off of the provision of Services. Provider agrees to reasonably cooperate with Recipient, upon Recipient's written request, in the transition of the Services from Provider to Recipient (or its designee). Recipient agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate its and its Affiliates' dependency on each Service to the extent and as soon as is reasonably practicable. Recipient shall transition responsibility for the performance of Services from Provider to Recipient in a manner that minimizes, to the extent reasonably possible, disruption to the Parent Business or the SpinCo Business, as applicable, and the continuing operations of Provider and its relevant Affiliates. Provider shall have no obligation to perform any Services following the Term. The Parties acknowledge and agree that time is of the essence with respect to the foregoing in this <u>Section 2.06</u>.

Section 2.07. <u>Subcontracting</u>. Provider may hire or engage one (1) or more Third Parties to perform any or all of its obligations under this Agreement; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that (a) Provider shall use the same degree of care (but at least reasonable care) in selecting each such Third Party as it would if such Third Party was being retained to provide similar services to Provider, (b) Provider shall in all cases remain responsible (as primary obligor) for all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the scope of the Services, the performance standard for Services set forth in <u>Sections 2.02(a)</u>, <u>2.02(b)</u> and <u>2.02(c)</u> and the content of the Services provided to Recipient and (c) if the Charge for a Service provided by a Third Party is less than the Charge contemplated by this Agreement, Recipient shall be responsible, for such Service, only for such lesser charge. Provider shall be liable for any breach of its obligations under this Agreement by any Third-Party service provider engaged by Provider, unless such Third Party service provider was required to be used by the Recipient, in which case, the Recipient shall be liable for breach of the obligations of such Third Party service provider. Subject to the confidentiality provisions set forth in <u>Article V</u> and any bona fide confidentiality obligations owed by Provider to a Third Party, Provider shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide, upon fifteen (15) business days' prior written notice, any Information within Provider's or its Affiliates' control that Recipient reasonably requests in connection with any Services being provided to Recipient by a Third Party, including any applicable invoices, agreements documenting the arrangements between such Third Party and Provider and other supporting documentation; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that Recipient shall make no more than one (1) such request per Third Party during any calendar quarter.

Section 2.08. <u>TSA Committee; TSA Committee Members</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties shall establish a committee, consisting of two (2) persons appointed by Parent and two (2) persons appointed by SpinCo, to oversee the management and coordination of the provision and receipt of Services pursuant to this Agreement (the "<u>TSA Committee</u>") (it being understood that the TSA Committee shall be established solely for the purpose of serving as a forum for interaction between the Parties and their Subsidiaries, and not as an independent entity with authority to act on its own).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The individuals designated to serve on the TSA Committee (each such person, a "<u>TSA Committee Member</u>") shall act as the primary point of contact for the administration and operation of this Agreement and shall have overall responsibility for coordinating all activities undertaken by their respective Party hereunder (including, but not limited, to billing matters, consideration of any proposed Service change or Service Extension), for acting as a day-to-day contact for any communication with the respective other Party, and for making available to the respective other Party the Information, data, facilities, resources and other support services required for the performance of the Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The initial TSA Committee Members for the Parties are set forth on <u>Schedule 2.08(b)</u>. The Parties may change their respective TSA Committee Members (or their designees with respect to specific Services) from time to time upon notice to the other Party in accordance herewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For each Service, the TSA Committee Members of a Party shall be permitted to delegate the day-to-day communication and provision of Information, facilities, resources and other support services with respect to such Service to other employees of the applicable Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The TSA Committee shall meet as often as reasonably necessary and at least monthly in an effort to resolve disputes without the necessity of any formal proceeding relating thereto. If the Parties' respective TSA Committee Members do not resolve a dispute within fifteen (15) days following a TSA Committee Member's receipt of a written notice from any of the other Party's TSA Committee Members indicating a dispute, and the period is not extended by mutual written consent, the Parties shall promptly escalate such dispute to the Chief Executive Officer of each Party to attempt to resolve such dispute through good faith discussions. Only if the Chief Executive Officers fail to promptly resolve such dispute within twenty (20) business days of such escalation may a Party initiate a formal proceeding as permitted by this Agreement in accordance with <u>Section 7.16</u> of this Agreement. The foregoing requirements and limitations shall not, however, prevent a party from: (i) seeking any and all remedies available at law, including injunctive relief in circumstances permitted by this Agreement, or (ii) terminating this Agreement (in whole or in part) in accordance with <u>Article IV</u>.

Section 2.09. <u>Service Limitations</u>. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Provider shall not be obligated to provide and shall not be deemed to be providing any advisory services (including advice with respect to legal, financial, accounting, insurance, regulatory or tax matters) to Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries as part of or in connection with the Services or otherwise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Provider shall have no obligation to prepare or deliver any notification or report to any Governmental Authority or other Person on behalf of Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries except as specifically set forth on the <u>Schedules</u> hereto; <u>provided</u> that Provider shall not deliver any such notification or report without Recipient's prior written consent; in no event shall Provider or its Subsidiaries have any obligation to favor Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries' operation of its businesses over its own business operations or those of its Subsidiaries; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Provider shall not be required to bear or pay any costs related to the conversion of the Recipient's Information at Recipient's request (other than any costs mutually agreed by Provider and Recipient, it being understood that, in agreeing to any such costs, the Parties shall take into account the time, effort and complexity of any action of Provider).

Section 2.10. <u>Use of Services</u>. Neither Provider nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide or to cause to be provided any of the Services to any Person other than Recipient and its Subsidiaries. Recipient shall not, and shall not permit its or any of its Subsidiaries' Representatives to, resell any Services to any Third Party or permit the use of any Services by any Third Party.

Article III<br> BILLING; TAXES

Section 3.01. <u>Procedure</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Charges for the Services shall be charged to and payable by Recipient. Amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by wire transfer or Automated Clearing House payment (or such other method of payment as may be agreed between the Parties from time to time) to Provider (as directed by Provider). All amounts due and payable hereunder shall be paid in U.S. dollars. If Recipient disputes any Charge for Services, Recipient shall nonetheless promptly pay the full amount of such Charge and any such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 7.16.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At the beginning of each month during the Term, beginning with December, 2025, Provider shall provide to Recipient an invoice (the "<u>Monthly Invoice</u>") for the full amount of any Charges anticipated to be payable for such month (and any other costs, fees, expenses, taxes and reimbursements payable by Recipient pursuant to this Agreement, except for any Taxes accounted directly to the applicable Taxing Authority by the Recipient pursuant to <u>Section 3.03</u>). The Monthly Invoice shall also reflect any discrepancies from the Charges invoiced in the prior Monthly Invoice to the Charges and other amounts payable for the recently elapsed month, as applicable, due to any modifications to Charges pursuant to <u>Section 2.03</u> or otherwise and such discrepancy shall be reconciled in the Monthly Invoice with the amount of any Charges anticipated to be payable for the upcoming month. The amount stated in the Monthly Invoice shall be paid by Recipient within forty-five (45) days of Recipient's receipt of the Monthly Invoice, including reasonable documentation pursuant to <u>Section 2.03</u>.

Section 3.02. <u>Late Payments</u>. Charges not paid when due pursuant to this Agreement and which are not disputed in good faith (and any amounts billed or otherwise invoiced or demanded and properly payable that are not paid within ten (10) days of the receipt of such bill, invoice or other demand) shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate set forth in *The Wall Street Journal* in effect on the date such payment was required to be made plus two percent (2%) (the "<u>Interest Payment</u>"). Failure to pay such Charges due hereunder within ten (10) days from receipt of a non-payment notice from Provider pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall constitute Recipient's failure to perform a material obligation under <u>Section 4.02(b)</u> and Provider may terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Service for which such payment failure applies under <u>Section 4.02(b)</u> (after the applicable cure period set forth therein).

Section 3.03. <u>Taxes</u>. Without limiting any provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any Charges, reimbursements or other amounts otherwise payable by Recipient hereunder, Recipient shall bear any and all Taxes and other similar charges (and any related interest and penalties) imposed on, or payable with respect to, any Services provided to Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to, and any fees, payments, reimbursements or charges, including any Charges, payable by Recipient pursuant to this Agreement, including all sales, use, excise, value-added, goods and services, consumption and similar Taxes, but excluding, any and all income Taxes, Taxes imposed in lieu of an income Tax, franchise Taxes, branch profits Taxes and any and all other Taxes imposed on or measured by the Provider's (or any of its Subsidiaries') net income (however denominated) ("<u>Sales and Services Taxes</u>"). Provider shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Recipient (or its applicable Subsidiary) a valid invoice reflecting any Sales and Services Taxes to the extent such invoice is required by applicable law. Any and all payments hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes; <u>provided</u>, that if Recipient (or its applicable Subsidiary) is required by applicable Law to deduct or withhold any amounts in respect of Taxes from any payments otherwise required to be made to Provider (or its applicable Subsidiary) pursuant to this Agreement, then (a) Recipient (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall make such deductions or withholdings as are required by applicable Law, (b) Recipient (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall timely pay such deducted or withheld amounts to the applicable Taxing Authority, and (c) to the extent such withholding or deduction is made on account of Sales and Services Taxes, the amount payable by Recipient (or its applicable Subsidiary) to Provider (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions and withholdings with respect to Sales and Service Taxes have been made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable hereunder) Provider (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings with respect to Sales and Service Taxes been made. Each Party agrees to, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate in good faith to reduce or eliminate any applicable Sales and Services Taxes and any withholding applicable to amounts payable hereunder and to comply with all laws applicable to the collection, withholding and payment of Taxes hereunder and to provide (or cause to be provided) the other with any relevant Tax forms or other information necessary for the furtherance thereof.

Section 3.04. <u>No Set-Off</u>. Except as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties, no Party nor any of its Affiliates shall have any right of set-off or other similar rights with respect to (a) any amounts received pursuant to this Agreement or (b) any other amounts claimed to be owed to the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of this Agreement.

Article IV<br> TERM AND TERMINATION

Section 4.01. <u>Term</u>. This Agreement shall commence at the Effective Time and shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a) the last date on which Provider is obligated to provide any Service to Recipient in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (b) the mutual written agreement of the Parties to terminate this Agreement in its entirety; and (c) the date that is the twenty-four (24) month anniversary of the Redemption Date (the "<u>Term</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) for any reason or no reason, upon the giving of at least forty-five (45) days' prior written notice (or such other number of days specified in the Schedules hereto) to Provider, unless prohibited by the applicable Schedule hereto; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any such termination (x) may not be effective prior to the end of the Minimum Service Period, (y) may only be effective as of the last day of a calendar month or such other period as may be set forth on the applicable Schedule and (z) shall be subject to the obligation to pay any applicable Termination Charges pursuant to <u>Section 4.05</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that if after the giving of prior written notice by Recipient pursuant to the foregoing, Recipient gives written notice to Provider that it no longer desires to terminate any such Service (a "<u>Reversion Notice</u>"), Provider must use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to perform such Services, in which case the Service Period for such Service shall be such Service Period as was in effect immediately prior to the giving of the Reversion Notice and the performance standards for Services set forth in <u>Sections 2.02(a)</u>, <u>2.02(b)</u> and <u>2.02(c)</u> shall thereafter be adjusted to reflect the level of performance able to be performed by Provider in its commercially reasonable efforts upon the receipt of a Reversion Notice (for the avoidance of doubt any Termination Charges incurred in connection with the continued performance of such Service shall be borne by Recipient); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if Provider has failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Service, and such failure to perform materially and adversely affects the provision of such Service or Recipient or an Affiliate thereof or the SpinCo Business or the Parent Business, as applicable, and such failure shall continue to be uncured by Provider for a period of at least thirty (30) days after receipt by Provider of written notice of such failure from Recipient; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that Recipient shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Service if, as of the end of such period, there remains a good-faith Dispute between the Parties (undertaken in accordance with the terms of <u>Section 7.16</u>) as to whether Provider has cured the applicable breach.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Provider may terminate this Agreement with respect to the entirety or portion of any Service at any time upon prior written notice to Recipient if Recipient has failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Service, including making payment of Charges, which are not disputed in good faith, for such Service when due, and such failure shall continue to be uncured by Recipient for a period of at least thirty (30) days after receipt by Recipient of a written notice of such failure from Provider; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that Provider shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Service if, as of the end of such period, there remains a good-faith Dispute between the Parties (undertaken in accordance with the terms of <u>Section 7.16</u>) as to whether Recipient has cured the applicable breach.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Schedules hereto shall be updated to reflect any terminated Service.

Section 4.03. <u>Extension of Services</u>. Upon written notice by Recipient to Provider at least (i) thirty (30) days prior to the end of any Service Period lasting less than or equal to three (3) months for any Service and (ii) forty five (45) days prior to the end of any other Service Period for any other Service (unless the Schedules hereto specify that such Service is not eligible for extension), Recipient shall have the right to extend the Service Period of any Service so that such Service ends on the earlier of (a) a number of days equal to the initial Service Period (not to exceed ninety (90) days) following the last date on which Service Provider is obligated to provide such Service in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (b) the Term (each such extension, a "<u>Service Extension</u>"). In the event of a Service Extension, (i) the Parties shall in good faith negotiate the terms of an amendment to the Schedules hereto and (ii) the Charge for such Service during the Service Extension period shall be at least equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Charge for such Service for the first Service Extension and one hundred fifty percent (150%) for any second Service Extension *plus* all costs, fees and expenses unless otherwise specified with respect to a particular Service on the Schedules hereto, or in the other Ancillary Agreements, payable by Provider or its Subsidiaries to a Third Party to the extent resulting from such Service Extension (to the extent not already included in such Charge); <u>provided</u> that, if such Service Extension is the result of Provider's failure to provide the Service during the applicable Service Period (the amount of time that Provider so failed to provide such Service, the "<u>Service Suspension Period</u>"), then the Charge for such Service during the Service Extension period shall be equal to (x) one hundred percent (100%) of the Charge for such Service, for a number of days equal to the Service Suspension Period and (y) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Charge for such Service (during a first Service Extension) or one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Charge for such Service (during any second Service Extension) *plus* all costs, fees and expenses unless otherwise specified with respect to a particular Service on the Schedules hereto, or in the other Ancillary Agreements, payable by Provider to a Third Party to the extent resulting from such Service Extension (to the extent not already included in such Charge), for the remaining days of the Service Extension period, if any. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Service Period of any particular Service (1) may not be extended more than once without Provider's consent (in Provider's sole discretion) and (2) may not be extended later than the Term. Each amendment of the Schedules hereto, as agreed to in writing by the Parties, shall be deemed part of this Agreement as of the date of such agreement and any Services provided pursuant to such Service Extensions shall be deemed "Services" provided under this Agreement, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 4.04. <u>Interdependencies</u>. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) there may be interdependencies among the Services being provided under this Agreement; (b) upon the request of either Party, the Parties shall cooperate and act in good faith to determine whether (i) any such interdependencies exist with respect to the particular Service that Recipient is seeking to terminate pursuant to <u>Section 4.02</u>, and (ii) in the case of such termination, Provider's ability to provide a particular Service in accordance with this Agreement would be materially and adversely affected by such termination of another Service; and (c) in the event that the Parties have determined that such interdependencies exist and such termination would materially and adversely affect Provider's ability to provide a particular Service in accordance with this Agreement, the Parties shall (i) negotiate in good faith to amend the Schedules hereto with respect to such impacted Service prior to such termination, which amendment shall be consistent with the terms of comparable Services, and (ii) if after such negotiation, the Parties are unable to agree on such amendment, Provider's obligation to provide such Service shall terminate automatically with such termination.

Section 4.05. <u>Effect of Termination</u>. Upon the termination of any Service pursuant to this Agreement, Provider shall have no further obligation to provide the terminated Service, and Recipient shall have no obligation to pay any future Charges relating to such Service; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that Recipient shall remain obligated to Provider for (a) the Charges owed and payable in respect of Services provided prior to the effective date of termination for such Service and (b) any applicable Termination Charges (which, in the case of clause (b), shall not be payable in the event that Recipient terminates any Service pursuant to <u>Section 4.02(a)(ii)</u>). In connection with the termination of any Service, the provisions of this Agreement not relating solely to such terminated Service shall survive any such termination, and in connection with a termination of this Agreement, <u>Article I</u> (*Definitions*), this <u>Article IV</u> (*Term and Termination*), <u>Article VI</u> (*Limited Liability and Indemnification*) and <u>Article VII</u> (*Miscellaneous*), all confidentiality obligations under this Agreement and Liability for all due and unpaid Charges and Termination Charges shall continue to survive indefinitely.

Section 4.07. <u>Information Transmission</u>. Provider, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or make available, or cause to be provided or made available, to Recipient, in accordance with Section 6.1 of the Separation Agreement, any Information received or computed by Provider for the benefit of Recipient concerning the relevant Service during the Service Period; provided, however, that, except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, (a) Provider shall not have any obligation to provide, or cause to be provided, Information in any nonstandard format, (b) Provider and its Subsidiaries shall be reimbursed for their reasonable costs in accordance with Section 6.3 of the Separation Agreement for creating, gathering, copying, transporting and otherwise providing such Information, (c) Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain any such Information in accordance with Section 6.4 of the Separation Agreement and (d) Provider shall not have any obligation to provide, or cause to be provided, Information which may not be provided pursuant to bona fide Third Party confidentiality restrictions.

If any Confidential Information of a Party or any of its Subsidiaries is disclosed to the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing the Services to such Party or its Subsidiaries, then such disclosed Confidential Information shall be used by such other Party and its Subsidiaries only as required to perform such Services. Each Party shall be liable for its failure and any failure by its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to comply with the restrictions on use and disclosure of Confidential Information contained in this Agreement.

Section 5.02. <u>No Release; Return or Destruction</u>. Each Party agrees (a) not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any Confidential Information addressed in <u>Section 5.01</u> to any other Person, except its Representatives, Subsidiaries or Third Parties hired or engaged pursuant to <u>Section 2.07</u>, in each case, who need to know such Confidential Information in their capacities as providers or recipients of Services hereunder (who shall be advised of and required to comply with their obligations hereunder with respect to such Confidential Information) and except in compliance with <u>Section 5.04</u>, and (b) to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such Confidential Information in accordance with Section 6.4 of the Separation Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, when any such Confidential Information is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreements (which, for such Confidential Information, shall be deemed to be no later than the end of the Term), and is no longer subject to any legal hold or other document preservation obligation, each Party will promptly after request of the other Party either return to the other Party all such Confidential Information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or notify the other Party in writing that it has destroyed such information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon); <u>provided</u> that the Parties may retain electronic back-up versions of such Confidential Information maintained on routine computer system back-up tapes, disks or other back-up storage devices; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that any such information so retained shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

Section 5.03. <u>Privacy and Data Protection Laws</u>. Each Party shall comply with all applicable state, federal and foreign privacy and data protection Laws that are or that may in the future be applicable to the provision or receipt of the Services under this Agreement including, as applicable, the EU GDPR, the UK GDPR, the FADP (as each defined in the DPA) and the CCPA ("<u>Privacy and Security Rules</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Party represents and warrants that it shall: (i) maintain adequate physical, electronic and administrative security, at least to the level of industry standards, to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of any Information provided or made available to such Party by or on behalf of the other Party hereunder that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household (such Information, "<u>Personal Information</u>"); (ii) comply with all Privacy and Security Rules; and (iii) notify the other Party promptly, but in every instance in less than forty-eight (48) hours, of any known or reasonably suspected Information Security Incident, as defined below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The specific business purpose for Provider's processing of Personal Information hereunder is to facilitate the provision of the applicable Services involving the processing of such Personal Information. Provider shall not process for marketing purposes, sell, aggregate, analyze or anonymize, or otherwise use, any Personal Information unless (and solely to the extent) necessary for the provision of the Services or as otherwise approved by the providing Party in writing. Provider shall not knowingly perform the Services in a manner that causes Recipient to violate any Privacy and Security Rules. Where Provider believes that compliance with any instruction from Recipient infringes any Privacy and Security Rules, Provider shall immediately notify Recipient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Provider shall: (i) not retain, use, or disclose Personal Information for any purpose other than for its provision of the Services hereunder; (ii) not "sell" or "share" Personal Information, as such terms are defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time ("<u>CCPA</u>"); (iii) not retain, use, or disclose Personal Information outside of the direct business relationship between the Parties; (iv) permit Recipient to take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that Provider uses the Personal Information in a manner consistent with Provider's obligations under the CCPA; (v) notify Recipient promptly after Provider makes a determination it can no longer meet its obligations under the CCPA; (vi) permit Recipient to, upon notice, take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate Provider's unauthorized use of Personal Information; (vi) enable Recipient to comply with consumer requests made pursuant to the CCPA with respect to Personal Information; (vii) combine Personal Information with personal information received from other persons (or from its own interactions with consumers); and (viii) not use Personal Information for another business or person unless necessary to detect information security incidents, or protect against fraudulent or illegal activity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) To the extent Provider processes aggregated and anonymized, or otherwise deidentified, Personal Information, Provider shall (i) not attempt to re-identify such Personal Information (except solely to determine if its identification processes comply with Privacy and Security Rules), and (ii) take reasonable measures to prohibit re-identification of such Personal Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Promptly after Provider no longer needs to process Personal Information to perform the Services or its other obligations hereunder (which shall be deemed to be no later than the end of the Term), Provider shall return to Recipient, or (at Recipient's discretion) securely dispose of, all originals and copies of such Personal Information and provide a written statement to Recipient certifying that it has complied with the requirements in this <u>Section 5.03(e)</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Provider shall not be required to return, destroy, or erase any Personal Information to the extent prohibited by applicable law or (to the extent not inconsistent with Privacy and Security Rules) material commercial impracticability, in which case Provider shall retain, in its then current state, all such Personal Information within its control or possession in accordance with this Agreement and perform its obligations under this Agreement as soon as such law or commercial impracticability no longer prevents it from doing so, <u>provided</u> that for as long as Personal Information is stored by Provider, Provider shall be subject to the obligations concerning such Personal Information set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In the event a Party or its Subsidiaries will have access to the other Party's or its Subsidiaries' Information Technology in connection with this Agreement, each Party shall access (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to access) such other Party's and its Subsidiaries' Information Technology solely for the purpose of receiving or providing the Services, as applicable, and shall only provide access to its Recipient or Provider personnel and other resources, as applicable, with a legitimate business need in order to receive or provide such Services, as applicable, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Party shall periodically review its access controls to confirm that its access hereunder to the other Party's Information Technology is limited to its authorized Recipient or Provider personnel and resources, as applicable. Each Party shall maintain the confidentiality of its access credentials to the other Party's Information Technology made available to it hereunder, and promptly notify the other Party of any potential loss, disclosure, or unauthorized access of or to such access credentials. Neither Party shall knowingly introduce into the other Party's Information Technology any malware or any other code that is designed to disrupt, disable, erase, alter, harm or otherwise impair such Information Technology.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Information Security Incident; Outages</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) In the event of any actual or reasonably suspected: (A) loss, theft of or unauthorized use, disclosure, destruction, loss, alteration, acquisition or processing of, or access to, Personal Information or Confidential Information of a Party received by the other Party hereunder; or (B) unauthorized access to or use of, inability to access, or malicious infection of a Party's Information Technology that compromises or could reasonably be expected to compromise the privacy or confidentiality of Personal Information or Confidential Information of a Party received by the other Party hereunder (an "<u>Information Security Incident</u>"), such other Party shall as soon as reasonably practicable notify the Party which had provided such Personal Information or Confidential Information and appoint a primary contact of reasonable seniority to assist the providing Party in resolving issues associated with the Information Security Incident and send the providing Party the primary contact's name and contact information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Party shall keep a reasonable record of any Information Security Incidents, sufficient to meet the other Party's obligations under Privacy and Security Rules, and provide such record to the other Party upon request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Each Party shall promptly take, in reasonable cooperation with the other Party, reasonable steps to investigate, remedy and prevent the recurrence of any Information Security Incident affecting Personal Information or Confidential Information provided to such Party by the other Party, including properly documenting responsive actions taken.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Except as may be strictly required by any Privacy and Security Rules or applicable Law, no Party will inform any third party of any Information Security Incident to the extent affecting Personal Information or Confidential Information provided or made available to such Party by or on behalf of the other Party without first obtaining the other Party's prior written consent. If any Privacy and Security Rules require a Party to independently notify a third party of an Information Security Incident to the extent affecting Personal Information or Confidential Information provided or made available to such Party by or on behalf of the other Party, and do not permit such Party to delegate such duty to the other Party, such Party will inform the other Party in writing of such obligation prior to notifying the third party. Each Party will fully cooperate with the other Party in connection with issuing any notice related to the Information Security Incident to the extent affecting Personal Information or Confidential Information provided or made available to such Party by or on behalf of the other Party. To the extent affecting its Personal Information or Confidential Information, each Party will have the sole right to determine: (A) whether notice of the Information Security Incident is to be made; (B) the contents of such notice; (C) whether any type of remediation may be offered to affected persons; and (D) the nature and extent of any such remediation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Each Party shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party in any litigation or other formal action by or against third parties arising from an Information Security Incident.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Recipient reasonably in advance of any planned outages of Provider's Information Technology where such outages are expected to affect the provision of the Services hereunder. In the event of an unplanned outage of Provider's Information Technology that causes a material adverse effect to the provision of the Services hereunder, Provider shall notify Recipient as soon as reasonably practicable of such outage and shall keep Recipient reasonably apprised of the status of the outage and Provider's efforts to resolve the outage.

Section 5.04. <u>Protective Arrangements</u>. In the event that a Party or any of its Subsidiaries either determines on the advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any Confidential Information or Personal Information of the other Party pursuant to applicable Law or receives any request or demand under lawful process or from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide such Information of the other Party (or any of its Subsidiaries) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party shall notify the other Party (to the extent legally permitted) as promptly as practicable under the circumstances prior to disclosing or providing such information and shall cooperate, at the expense of the other Party, in seeking any appropriate protective order requested by the other Party. In the event that such other Party fails to receive such appropriate protective order in a timely manner and the Party receiving the request or demand reasonably determines that its failure to disclose or provide such Information shall actually prejudice the Party receiving the request or demand, then the Party that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by its counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority and will exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Information, and the disclosing Party shall promptly provide the other Party with a copy of the information so disclosed, in the same form and format so disclosed, together with a list of all Persons to whom such Information was disclosed, in each case to the extent legally permitted.

The obligations in this <u>Article V</u> shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement until the three (3) year anniversary of the date of the Effective Time; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, with respect to Information constituting a Trade Secret, such obligations shall survive and continue for so long as such Information retains its status as a Trade Secret.

Section 7.11. <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

Section 7.12. <u>Force Majeure</u>. No Party shall be deemed in default of this Agreement for any delay or failure to fulfill any obligation hereunder (other than a payment obligation) so long as and to the extent to which any delay or failure in the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure. Without limiting the termination rights contained in this Agreement, in the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance of such obligation (other than a payment obligation) shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such event, (a) provide written notice to the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable (and in no event later than the date that the affected Party resumes analogous performance under any other agreement for itself, its Affiliates or any Third Party), unless this Agreement has previously been terminated under <u>Article IV</u> or this <u>Section 7.12</u>.

If a Company or one of its Affiliates pays over any amount pursuant to the preceding sentence and such Tax Benefit is subsequently disallowed or adjusted, the Parties shall promptly make appropriate payments (including in respect of any interest paid or imposed by any Tax Authority) to reflect such disallowance or adjustment.

Section 5.02 *Indemnification Payments*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If a Company (the "**Indemnitee**") is required pursuant to <u>Section 5.01</u> (or otherwise under applicable Tax Law) to pay a Tax Authority a Tax for which the other Company (the "**Indemnitor**") is liable, in whole or in part, under this Agreement (including for the avoidance of doubt, any administrative or judicial deposit required to be paid by the Indemnitee to a Tax Authority to pursue any Tax Contest, to the extent the Indemnitor would be liable under this Agreement for any Tax resulting from such Tax Contest), then the Indemnitor shall reimburse the Indemnitee within twenty (20) business days of the delivery by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor of a written notice and demand for payment of such amount, accompanied by a statement detailing the Taxes paid and the calculation of the amount payable by the Indemnitor and describing in reasonable detail the particulars relating thereto and evidence of payment of such amounts by the Indemnitee to the relevant Tax Authority, <u>provided</u> that, in the case of any indemnification payment in respect of any Tax to be paid to a Tax Authority, no such payment shall be required to be made any earlier than five (5) business days prior to the date the relevant Tax is required to be paid to the applicable Tax Authority, taking into account any automatic or validly elected extensions, deferrals or postponements. All indemnification payments shall be treated in the manner described in <u>Section 13.01</u>.

**Article 6. Tax Benefits.**

Section 6.01 *Tax Benefits*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, (i) Parent shall be entitled to any Refund (and any interest thereon received from the applicable Tax Authority) of Taxes for which Parent is liable hereunder and SpinCo shall be entitled to any Refund (and any interest thereon received from the applicable Tax Authority) of Taxes for which SpinCo is liable hereunder. The Company receiving a Refund to which the other Company is entitled hereunder, in whole or in part, shall pay over the amount of such Refund (or portion thereof), and any interest on such amount received from the applicable Tax Authority but net of any costs and expenses (including professional fees) incurred by the Company (or a member of its Group) receiving such Refund in connection with obtaining or securing such Refund, to such other Company within thirty (30) business days after the receipt of such Refund or application of such Refund against Taxes otherwise payable. To the extent that any Refund (or portion thereof) in respect of which any amounts were paid over pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is subsequently disallowed by the applicable Tax Authority, the Company that received such amounts shall promptly repay such amounts (together with any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Tax Authority) to the other Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If (i) a member of the SpinCo Group Actually Realizes any Tax Benefit (A) as a result of the utilization of any Parent Tax Asset or (B) as a result of any liability, obligation, loss or payment (each, a "**Loss**") for which a member of the Parent Group is required to indemnify any member of the SpinCo Group pursuant to the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement (in each case, without duplication of any amounts payable or taken into account under the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement) or (ii) a member of the Parent Group Actually Realizes any Tax Benefit (A) as a result of the utilization of any SpinCo Tax Asset or (B) as a result of any Loss for which a member of the SpinCo Group is required to indemnify any member of the Parent Group pursuant to the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement (in each case, without duplication of any amounts payable or taken into account under the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement), and (iii) the aggregate Tax Benefit realized or realizable by the relevant member of the SpinCo Group (in the case of clause (i)) or the relevant member of the Parent Group (in the case of clause (ii)) as a result of such utilization or Loss would reasonably be expected to exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), then SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, shall make a payment to the other Company in an amount equal to the amount of such Actually Realized Tax Benefit (including any Tax Benefit Actually Realized as a result of the payment) in cash within thirty (30) business days of Actually Realizing such Tax Benefit. To the extent that any Tax Benefit (or portion thereof) in respect of which any amounts were paid over pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 6.01(b)</u> is subsequently disallowed by the applicable Tax Authority, the Company that received such amounts shall promptly repay such amounts (together with any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Tax Authority) to the other Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Company shall be obligated to make a payment otherwise required pursuant to <u>Section 6.01(a)</u> or <u>Section 6.01(b)</u> to the extent making such payment would place such Company (or any member of its Group) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Company (or such member) would have been in if the relevant Tax Benefit had not been realized.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) No later than twenty (20) business days after a Tax Benefit described in <u>Section 6.01(b)</u> is Actually Realized by a member of the Parent Group or a member of the SpinCo Group, Parent (if a member of the Parent Group Actually Realizes such Tax Benefit) or SpinCo (if a member of the SpinCo Group Actually Realizes such Tax Benefit), as the case may be, shall provide the other Company with a written statement detailing the amount payable to the other Company pursuant to <u>Section 6.01(b)</u> and describing in reasonable detail the particulars relating thereto. In the event that Parent or SpinCo, as the case may be, disagrees with the written statement described in this <u>Section 6.01(d)</u> (or any calculation or component thereof), Parent or SpinCo shall so notify the other Company in writing within fifteen (15) business days of receiving such written statement. Parent and SpinCo shall endeavor in good faith to resolve such disagreement, and, failing that, the amount payable under this <u>Article 6</u> shall be determined in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of <u>Article 14</u> as promptly as practicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) SpinCo shall be entitled to any Refund Actually Realized by a member of the Parent Group that is attributable to, and would not have arisen but for, a SpinCo Carryback that is required under applicable Tax Law and is not effected in violation of <u>Section 4.07</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that SpinCo shall indemnify and hold the members of the Parent Group harmless from and against any and all collateral Tax consequences resulting from, attributable to or caused by any such SpinCo Carryback, including (but not limited to) the loss or postponement of any benefit from the use of any Parent Tax Asset if (x) such Parent Tax Asset expires unutilized, but would have been utilized but for such SpinCo Carryback, or (y) the use of such Parent Tax Asset is postponed to a later Tax Period than the Tax Period in which such Parent Tax Asset would have been utilized but for such SpinCo Carryback. Any such payment of such Refund made by any member of the Parent Group to SpinCo pursuant to this <u>Section 6.01(e)(i)</u> shall be recalculated as appropriate in light of any Final Determination (or any other facts that may arise or come to light after such payment is made, such as a carryback of a Tax Asset of the Parent Group to a Tax Period in respect of which such Refund is received) that would affect the amount to which SpinCo is entitled, and an appropriate adjusting payment shall be made by SpinCo to Parent or by Parent to SpinCo, as applicable, such that the aggregate amount paid pursuant to this <u>Section 6.01(e)(i)</u> equals such recalculated amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Parent shall be entitled to any Refund Actually Realized by a member of the SpinCo Group that is attributable to, and would not have arisen but for, a Parent Carryback that is required under applicable Tax Law and is not effected in violation of <u>Section 4.07</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that Parent shall indemnify and hold the members of the SpinCo Group harmless from and against any and all collateral Tax consequences resulting from, attributable to or caused by any such Parent Carryback, including (but not limited to) the loss or postponement of any benefit from the use of any SpinCo Tax Asset if (x) such SpinCo Tax Asset expires unutilized, but would have been utilized but for such Parent Carryback, or (y) the use of such SpinCo Tax Asset is postponed to a later Tax Period than the Tax Period in which such SpinCo Tax Asset would have been utilized but for such Parent Carryback. Any such payment of such Refund made by any member of the SpinCo Group to Parent pursuant to this <u>Section 6.01(e)(ii)</u> shall be recalculated as appropriate in light of any Final Determination (or any other facts that may arise or come to light after such payment is made, such as a carryback of a Tax Asset of the SpinCo Group to a Tax Period in respect of which such Refund is received) that would affect the amount to which Parent is entitled, and an appropriate adjusting payment shall be made by Parent to SpinCo or by SpinCo to Parent, as applicable, such that the aggregate amount paid pursuant to this <u>Section 6.01(e)(ii)</u> equals such recalculated amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any determinations with respect to any Refund or other Tax Benefit to which a Group may be entitled pursuant to any of the foregoing provisions of <u>Section 6.01</u> shall be made without duplication of any Refund, Tax Benefit or Tax Item to the extent already taken into account (i) in determining any entitlement of such Group to any amounts pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement (including any other provision of this <u>Section 6.01</u>) or (ii) to reduce any Liability for Taxes of such Group pursuant to <u>Article 2</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) For purposes of this Agreement, the amount of any Refund required to be paid to another Company shall be reduced by the net amount of any Taxes imposed on, related to, or attributable to, the receipt or accrual of such Refund.

Tax reporting and withholding with respect to Compensatory Equity Interests shall be governed by Section 4.02(c) of the Employee Matters Agreement. Certain Tax reporting and withholding matters with respect to SpinCo Group Employees for the Tax Period that includes the Redemption are addressed in, and shall be governed by, Section 3.01(g) of the Employee Matters Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Employee Matters Agreement with respect to Tax withholding and reporting obligations relating to compensation or compensatory matters, the Employee Matters Agreement shall control.

Section 6.03 *Group Relief*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Parent and SpinCo shall procure that after the Redemption, no claim, election, surrender, transfer, allocation, notice or consent is made in respect of any Group Relief Surrender by a member of a Parent Group to a member of a SpinCo Group (or vice versa) other than pursuant to this <u>Section 6.03</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With respect to each Tax Period, to the extent that a member of the Parent Group or SpinCo Group has a Relievable Loss for such Tax Period in excess of the amount such member is able to use for such Tax Period (such member, the "**Surrendering Member**", and such excess Relievable Loss, an "**Excess Relievable Loss**"), then Parent or SpinCo, as applicable (the "**Surrendering Member Parent**") may cause such Surrendering Member to make a Group Relief Surrender to any other member of the same Group that is able to use some or all of such Excess Relievable Loss for that Tax Period pursuant to applicable Law (such member, a "**Post-Redemption Claimant Member**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent that, for any Excess Relievable Loss, (x) there is no applicable Post-Redemption Claimant Member or (y) the Surrendering Member Parent elects not to cause the Surrendering Member to make a Group Relief Surrender of such Excess Relievable Loss to any applicable Post-Redemption Claimant Member, then the Surrendering Member Parent shall notify the other Company (such other Company, the "**Other Claimant Member Parent**") in writing of the availability of such remaining Excess Relievable Loss, and if there exists a member of the Group of such Other Claimant Member Parent that is able to use some or all of such Excess Relievable Loss pursuant to applicable Law in the Tax Period described in <u>Section 6.03(b)</u> (such member, a "**Other Claimant Member**"), then (i) upon the Other Claimant Member Parent's written request, the Surrendering Member Parent shall as soon as reasonably practicable cause the Surrendering Member to make a Group Relief Surrender of the requested amount of such Excess Relievable Loss to the applicable Other Claimant Member and (ii) the Other Claimant Member Parent shall pay an amount equal to the Tax Benefit Actually Realized by it or any member of its Group as a result of such Excess Relievable Loss to the Surrendering Member Parent as soon as reasonably practicable after such Tax Benefit is Actually Realized.

In addition, in the event that either Company determines that the provision of access to any information, documents or procedures to the other Company or its Affiliates could be commercially detrimental, violate any Law or agreement or waive any Privilege, the Companies shall use reasonable best efforts to permit compliance with their obligations under this <u>Article 8</u> or <u>Article 9</u> in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

Section 8.02 *Tax Return Information*. SpinCo and Parent acknowledge that time is of the essence in relation to any request for information, assistance or cooperation made by Parent or SpinCo pursuant to <u>Section 8.01</u> or this <u>Section 8.02</u>.

After the Retention Date, each Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice to the other Company. If, prior to the Retention Date, a Company reasonably determines that any Tax Records which it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this <u>Article 9</u> are no longer material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and the other Company agrees, then such first Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon ninety (90) days' prior notice to the other Company.

**Article 10. Tax Contests.**

Section 10.01 *Notice*. Each of the Companies shall provide prompt notice to the other Company of any written communication from a Tax Authority regarding any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment or proceeding or other Tax Contest relating to Taxes or Refunds or Tax Benefits for which it may be entitled to indemnification or payment by the other Company hereunder or for which it may be required to indemnify or pay the other Company hereunder. Such notice shall include copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Tax Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Tax Authority in respect of such matters. The failure of one Company to notify the other of such communication in accordance with the immediately preceding sentences shall not relieve such other Company of any liability or obligation to pay such Tax, pay over such Tax Benefits or make indemnification payments under this Agreement, except to the extent that the failure to timely provide such notification actually prejudices the ability of such other Company to contest such Tax liability (or contest any determination in respect of any Refund or Tax Benefit) or increases the amount of such Tax liability (or reduces the amount of such Refund or Tax Benefit).

Section 10.02 *Control of Tax Contests*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *General Rule*.

**Article 11. Effective Date; Termination of Prior Intercompany Tax Allocation Agreements*.*** This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time. As of the Effective Time, (a) all prior intercompany Tax allocation agreements or arrangements solely between or among any member(s) of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and any member(s) of the SpinCo Group, on the other hand, shall be terminated, and (b) amounts due under such agreements or arrangements as of the Redemption Date shall be settled as determined by Parent in its good faith discretion. Upon such termination and settlement, no further payments by or to any members of the Parent Group, or by or to any members of the SpinCo Group, with respect to such agreements or arrangements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements or arrangements between the Companies and their Affiliates shall cease at such time. Any payments pursuant to such agreements or arrangements shall be disregarded for purposes of computing amounts due under this Agreement.

**Article 12. Survival of Obligations.** The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and liability for the breach of any obligations contained herein shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time.

**Article 13. Treatment of Payments; Tax Gross-Up.**

Section 13.01 *Treatment of Indemnity Payments*. In the absence of any change in Tax treatment under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and except as otherwise agreed between the Companies or as otherwise required by applicable Law, for Tax purposes, the Companies agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat, (a) any indemnity payment required by this Agreement or by the Separation Agreement (other than any payment of interest or State Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority) as, as applicable, (i) a contribution by Parent to SpinCo (if such payment is made by Parent to SpinCo) or a distribution by SpinCo to Parent (if such payment is made by SpinCo to Parent), as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Redemption (but only to the extent the payment does not relate to a Tax allocated to the Indemnitor in accordance with Section 1552 of the Code or the Treasury Regulations thereunder or Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-33(d) (or under corresponding principles of other applicable Tax Laws)), (ii) an adjustment to the purchase price, or (iii) as payments of an assumed or retained liability, as determined by Parent in its good faith discretion; and (b) any payment of interest or State Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the Company entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment. The Companies shall cooperate in good faith (including, where relevant, by using commercially reasonable efforts to establish local payment arrangements between each Company's Subsidiaries) to minimize or eliminate, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, any Tax that would otherwise be imposed with respect to any payment required by this Agreement or by the Separation Agreement (or maximize the ability to obtain a credit for, or refund of, any such Tax).

Section 13.02 *Tax Gross-Up*. If, notwithstanding the manner in which payments described in <u>Section 13.01(a)</u> were reported, there is a Tax liability or an adjustment to a Tax liability of a Company or a member of its Group as a result of its receipt of an indemnity payment pursuant to this Agreement or the Separation Agreement, such payment shall be appropriately adjusted so that the amount of such payment, reduced by the amount of all Income Taxes payable with respect to the receipt thereof (but taking into account all correlative Tax Benefits resulting from the payment of such Income Taxes) and irrecoverable VAT, shall equal the amount of the payment which the Company receiving such payment would otherwise be entitled to receive.

Section 13.03 *Interest*. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent the Indemnitor makes a payment of interest to the Indemnitee under this Agreement with respect to the period from the date that the Indemnitor was required to make a payment to the Indemnitee to the date that the Indemnitor reimbursed the Indemnitee for such Tax payment, the interest payment shall be treated as interest expense to the Indemnitor (deductible to the extent provided by Law) and as interest income by the Indemnitee (includible in income to the extent provided by Law). The amount of the payment shall not be adjusted to take into account any associated Tax Benefit to the Indemnitor or increase in Tax to the Indemnitee.

**Article 14. Dispute Resolution.** The Companies desire that collaboration will continue between them. Accordingly, they will endeavor, and they will cause their respective Group members to endeavor, to resolve in good faith all Disputes or disagreements regarding their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any such Dispute or disagreement (other than a Non-Tax Dispute) between Parent and SpinCo as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the application or performance of any rights or obligations hereunder (a "**Tax Dispute**"), the Tax departments of the Companies shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such Tax Dispute. If such good faith negotiations do not resolve such Tax Dispute, then the matter will be referred to a Tax Advisor mutually acceptable to each of Parent and SpinCo. The Tax Advisor may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third-party appraiser, accounting firm or consultant that the Tax Advisor deems necessary to assist it in resolving such Dispute or disagreement. The Tax Advisor shall resolve the Tax Dispute according to such procedures as the Tax Advisor deems advisable and shall furnish written notice to Parent and SpinCo of its resolution of any such Tax Dispute as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than forty-five (45) days after its acceptance of the matter for resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Advisor shall be consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and if so consistent, shall be conclusive and binding on the Companies. Following receipt of the Tax Advisor's written notice to the Companies of its resolution of the Tax Dispute, the Companies shall each take or cause to be taken any action necessary to implement such resolution of the Tax Advisor. In accordance with <u>Article 15</u> (and except as provided in the immediately following sentence), each Company shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of its representatives) incurred in connection with the referral of the matter to the Tax Advisor. All fees and expenses of the Tax Advisor in connection with such referral shall be shared equally by the Companies. In the case of a Tax Dispute, the procedures of this <u>Article 14</u> shall apply in lieu of the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Separation Agreement (other than those procedures set forth in Section 7.5 or Section 7.6 of the Separation Agreement); <u>provided</u>, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Companies may commence mediation pursuant to Section 7.4 of the Separation Agreement with respect to a Tax Dispute if there is a Dispute or disagreement about whether any resolution by the Tax Advisor is consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Any Non-Tax Dispute shall be resolved pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Separation Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, each of Parent and SpinCo is the only member of its respective Group entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, and each of Parent and SpinCo will cause its respective Group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such Company as provided in this <u>Article 14</u>.

**Article 15. Expenses.** Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, each Company and its Affiliates shall bear their own expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns, Tax Contests, and other matters related to Taxes under the provisions of this Agreement.

**Article 16. Late Payments.** Any amount owed by one Company to another Company under this Agreement which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the Prime Rate *plus* two percent (2%), compounded annually, from the due date of the payment to the date paid. To the extent interest required to be paid under this <u>Article 16</u> duplicates interest required to be paid under any other provision of this Agreement, interest shall be computed at the higher of the interest rate provided under this <u>Article 16</u> or the interest rate provided under such other provision.

**Article 17. General Provisions.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) this Agreement, the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitute valid and binding agreements of it enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Company acknowledges that it and each other Party may execute this Agreement, the Separation Agreement and certain of the other Ancillary Agreements by facsimile, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature, and that delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement (whether executed by manual, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature) by facsimile or by e-mail in portable document format (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of such executed counterpart of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or such other Ancillary Agreement. Each Company expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature (regardless of whether delivered in person, by mail, by courier, by facsimile or by e-mail in portable document format (PDF)) made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature delivered in person, agrees that it will not assert that any such signature or delivery is not adequate to bind such Company to the same extent as if it were signed manually and delivered in person and agrees that, at the reasonable request of the other Company at any time, it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof) and delivered in person, by mail or by courier.

Section 17.02 *Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related hereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby or to the inducement of any party to enter herein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of Delaware including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each of Parent and SpinCo, on behalf of itself and the members of its Group, hereby irrevocably agrees that any litigation with respect to any Dispute with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgement in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other Company (or any member of such Company's respective Group) hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Chosen Courts. Each of the Companies hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Dispute for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Chosen Courts. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Dispute with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any claim that (A) the Dispute in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Dispute is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such consent shall be required for the assignment of a Company's rights and obligations under this Agreement in whole (i.e., the assignment of a Company's rights and obligations under this Agreement, the other Ancillary Agreements and the Separation Agreement at the same time) in connection with a change of control of a Company so long as the resulting, surviving or transferee Person assumes all the obligations of the relevant party thereto by operation of Law or pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the other Company.

Any Company may, by notice to the other Company, change the address to which any such notices are to be given or made.

Section 17.06 *Severability*. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Companies shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Companies.

Section 17.07 *Force Majeure*. No Company shall be deemed in default of this Agreement for any delay or failure to fulfill any obligation (other than a payment obligation) hereunder so long as and to the extent to which any delay or failure in the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure. In the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance of such obligations (other than a payment obligation) shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. A Company claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such Force Majeure, (a) provide written notice to the other Company of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable.

Section 17.10 *Waivers of Default*. Waiver by any Company of any default by the other Company of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Company of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Company. No failure or delay by any Company in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 17.11 *Specific Performance*. Subject to the provisions of <u>Article 14</u>, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the Company or Companies who are, or are to be, thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief in respect of its or their rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the Companies.

Section 17.12 *Amendments*.

Section 17.16 *No Set-Off*. Except as mutually agreed to in writing by the Companies, neither Company nor any member of such Company's Group shall have any right of set-off or other similar rights with respect to (a) any amounts received pursuant to this Agreement; or (b) any other amounts claimed to be owed to the other Company or any member of its Group arising out of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Non-U.S. Employees*. SpinCo Group Employees who are residents outside of the United States or otherwise are subject to non-U.S. Law and their related benefits and Liabilities shall be treated in the same manner as the SpinCo Group Employees, respectively, who are residents of the United States and are not subject to non-U.S. Law.

Section 2.03. <u>Adoption and Transfer and Assumption of Benefit Plans</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Adoption by SpinCo of Benefit Plans.* As of no later than the Effective Time (or such other time as is set forth herein), SpinCo shall, or shall cause the members of the SpinCo Group to, adopt or assume Benefit Plans (and related trusts), to the extent applicable, as contemplated and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Retention by SpinCo of SpinCo Plans*. From and after the Effective Time, SpinCo shall retain all of the SpinCo Benefits Plans, including all related Liabilities and Assets, and any related trusts and other funding vehicles and insurance contracts of any of such plans other than as specifically provided in this Agreement; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that SpinCo may make such changes, modifications or amendments to the SpinCo Benefit Plans as may be required by applicable Law or to reflect the Separation Agreement, including limiting participation in any such SpinCo Benefit Plan to SpinCo Group Employees who participated in the corresponding Parent Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. Without limiting the requirements of <u>Section 2.02</u>, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude SpinCo, at any time after the Effective Time, from amending, merging, modifying, terminating, eliminating, reducing, or otherwise altering in any respect any SpinCo Benefit Plan, any benefit under any SpinCo Benefit Plan or any trust, insurance policy or funding vehicle related to any SpinCo Benefit Plan, or any employment or other service arrangement with SpinCo Group Employees, independent contractors or vendors (to the extent permitted by law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Plans Not Required to Be Adopted*. With respect to any Benefit Plan not addressed in this Agreement, the Parties shall agree in good faith on the treatment of such plan taking into account the handling of any comparable plan under this Agreement and, notwithstanding that SpinCo shall not have an obligation to continue to maintain any such plan with respect to the provision of future benefits from and after the Effective Time, SpinCo shall remain obligated to pay or provide any previously accrued or incurred benefits to the SpinCo Group Employees consistent with <u>Section 2.01(a)</u> of this Agreement.

Each Party shall, upon reasonable request, use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other Party and the other Party's respective Affiliates, agents, and vendors all information reasonably necessary to the other Party's operation or administration of its Benefit Plans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *No Duplication or Acceleration of Benefits.* Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, no participant in any Benefit Plan shall receive service credit or benefits to the extent that receipt of such service credit or benefits would result in duplication of benefits provided to such participant by the corresponding Benefit Plan or any other plan, program or arrangement sponsored or maintained by a member of the Group that sponsors the corresponding Benefit Plan. Furthermore, unless expressly provided for in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement or required by applicable Law, no provision in this Agreement shall be construed to create any right to accelerate vesting distributions or entitlements under any Benefit Plan sponsored or maintained by a member of the Parent Group or member of the SpinCo Group on the part of any Employee or Former Employee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Transition Services*.

Each of the Parties agrees to execute, and to seek to have the applicable Employees execute, such documentation, if any, as may be necessary to reflect such assignment and/or transfer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Certain Inactive Employees*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Not a Change in Control.* The Parties acknowledge and agree that neither the consummation of the Separation, the Redemption nor any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement shall be deemed a "change in control," "change of control" or term of similar import for purposes of any Benefit Plan sponsored or maintained by any member of the Parent Group or member of the SpinCo Group and except as provided in this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable law or Individual Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to accelerate any vesting or create a right or entitlement to any compensation or benefits on the part of any Employee.

The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to cause each SpinCo Delayed Transfer Employee to commence employment with a member of the SpinCo Group as soon as reasonably practicable following the Redemption Date as permitted by applicable Law in such a manner that, to the maximum extent practical, does not trigger the right of such SpinCo Group Employee to redundancy, severance, termination or similar pay and is otherwise consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and applicable Law or Labor Agreement. In respect of the SpinCo Delayed Transfer Employees, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise implies, references to "Effective Time" and "Redemption Date" shall be treated as references to the first date and time at which the applicable SpinCo Delayed Transfer Employee's employment commences with or transfers to a member of the SpinCo Group.

 delivery of all required API to the Facility (including any costs, taxes, duties, or other
 expenses incurred in connection therewith);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Buyer shall ensure that, at the
 time of delivery to Supplier, all API provided to Supplier hereunder shall have no less than
 the Required Dating Months. To the extent that API does not have Required Dating Months,
 then Supplier and Buyer may meet to discuss and consider, in good faith, if, in the particular
 circumstances, such API is capable of being utilized in the Manufacture of the Finished Product,
 provided however, that Supplier shall not be obliged in any circumstance to accept such API
 if it falls below the Required Dating Months;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Supplier shall inspect all API
 shipments within five (5) business days of receipt for visible damage upon inspection
 of API, and shall promptly inform Buyer of any such visible defects in or damage to the API
 or other visible non-conformity to the applicable Specifications discoverable upon visual
 inspection made with reasonable care. Buyer shall use its reasonable efforts to have all
 damaged or defective API shipments replaced or corrected as soon as practicable, and Supplier
 shall provide assistance in the investigation of any damaged shipment. In the case of an
 alleged latent defect or any alleged defect to API shipment that is not obvious and could
 not be readily discovered upon visual inspection made with reasonable care, Supplier shall
 deliver written notice to Buyer within thirty (30) days after the date on which Supplier
 discovers such latent defect. If Buyer does not agree with Manufacturer that any lot of API
 fails to meet applicable Specifications, Buyer shall inform Supplier of such belief within
 ten (10) days of Supplier's notice of such alleged failure, and the Parties will
 arrange for the lot in question to be tested by a mutually acceptable independent laboratory
 for non-conformity with the applicable agreed specifications in respect of such API. The
 determination by such laboratory will be final and binding upon the Parties, absent manifest
 error. The cost of any such testing by the mutually agreed independent laboratory shall be
 borne by the Party whose judgment in respect of the relevant API non- conformity was incorrect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Supplier shall store and handle
 all API received, in respect of any Product hereunder, in accordance with Applicable Law,
 GMP and the Technical Requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Title to all API supplied to
 Supplier under this Agreement and each purchase order for API shall at all times remain with
 Buyer. Supplier shall not at any time sell or offer for sale, assign, mortgage, pledge or
 allow any lien to be created upon any API provided by Buyer, excluding any liens given by
 Buyer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Minimum API Yield for the
 Xiaflex Product is included on Schedule 1, Part 1 of this Agreement and, in respect
 of any other Product for which Buyer supplies the API, the applicable PSS will include a
 Minimum API Yield. Supplier shall perform a monthly reconciliation exercise in respect of
 any such API to report (i) the amount of API delivered to Supplier pursuant to this
 Agreement during the relevant calendar month, (ii) the amount of API used by Supplier
 in Manufacturing the Finished Products hereunder during the relevant calendar month, (iii) the
 then current on hand amount of API delivered to Supplier pursuant to this Agreement, (iv) the
 then current on hand amount of work in progress and, to the extent applicable, Finished Products
 at the Facility for the relevant calendar month, (v) calculation of the actual API yield
 for the relevant calendar month, and (vi) any shortfall in such actual yield as compared
 to the Minimum API Yield, as such calculations may be more specifically described in an applicable
 PSS, and Supplier shall compensate to Buyer for shortfall in yield, as compared to the applicable
 Minimum API Yield, based on the API Cost, as a credit on its next invoice or as otherwise
 provided in an applicable PSS; provided, however, that in respect of any particular calendar
 month, such credit shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total API Cost of the amount
 of API used by Supplier pursuant to this Agreement during such calendar month; or, on a calendar
 year basis, a maximum of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($150,000), and any such
 credits shall be included, on a calendar year basis, in any calculation of Maximum Cap Amount
 applicable to such calendar year;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Supplier shall be responsible,
 at its cost, for procuring and managing the Materials necessary to Manufacture the Products
 hereunder. Supplier will purchase and inspect all Materials as required by the Technical
 Requirements and hold in inventory sufficient Materials to meet Firm Purchase Commitments
 (as defined below in Annex A). Buyer shall have no liability to Supplier whatsoever for Materials
 purchased by Supplier in excess of the foregoing. No changes shall be made to the Materials
 unless mutually agreed by Buyer and Supplier, including, without limitation, any such changes
 that may require Buyer to provide notification to Regulatory Authorities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) To the extent that any PSS is
 executed hereunder between the Parties in respect of a particular Finished Product, any additional
 terms of such PSS as they relate to API, shall also be applicable for such Finished Product,
 and in the event of any inconsistency between a PSS for a particular Finished Product and
 this Agreement in so far as such inconsistency relates to API, then the terms of the applicable
 PSS shall control as to such relevant Finished Product.

**4.** **MANUFACTURE, SUPPLY AND SALE** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1. For the Term of this Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Supplier shall Manufacture, supply
 and sell (and Buyer shall purchase from Supplier) each Finished Product to Buyer for sale
 in the Territory in accordance with the applicable purchase order (and to the extent relevant,
 PSS), Specifications, Technical Dossier, GMP and the terms of this Agreement and the Quality
 Agreement (the "**Technical Requirements** ");

 store each of the Finished Products in accordance with Applicable Laws, and in a manner consistent
 with the Technical Requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent applicable, Supplier
 shall be responsible for all sales, use or analogous taxes imposed or assessed as a result
 of the sale of each Product to Buyer or its Affiliates. It is, however, acknowledged and
 agreed that in respect of the Xiaflex Product, such Finished Product version of Xiaflex Product
 is intended and expected to be exempt from sales and use tax; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Supplier shall, during the Term
 of this Agreement, hold and maintain all necessary manufacturing and regulatory licenses
 required under Applicable Law in the Territory to Manufacture and supply each Finished Product
 hereunder.

The Parties agree that, in the case of Xiaflex Product, the Xiaflex Manufacturing Services shall be undertaken in respect of the Manufacture of Xiaflex Product hereunder, but such agreed upon Xiaflex Manufacturing Services are based upon drug product production and Diluent manufacturing of the Xiaflex Product by Supplier, being carried out using Supplier's production line 10 and 9 (respectively) at the Facility (the "**Existing Par Production Lines**"). If and to the extent that, during the Term of this Agreement, any of the Xiaflex Manufacturing Services are not capable of being continued to be provided on any of the Existing Par Production Lines, by reason of compliance or regulatory requirements (a "**Line Issue**"), then the Parties shall co-operate, in good faith, to try to reach resolution with respect to such Line Issue in order to enable and facilitate the continued provision of such Xiaflex Manufacturing Services hereunder, including, any potential mitigation strategies that may be considered between the Parties, taking into account the relevant circumstances as exist as at such time, including, but not limited to, any then-available inventory on hand as at such time, any alternative supply options or a bridging supply strategy. To the extent, despite attempts to resolve such Line Issue, it is ultimately required that such the relevant Xiaflex Manufacturing Services are required to be transferred from an Existing Par Production Line to another production line (a "**Line Transfer**"), then the Parties shall negotiate, in good faith, to execute a definitive agreement with respect to such Line Transfer, including the scope of work and timing required in order to effect such Line Transfer. It is agreed that the allocation of costs of any such Line Transfer shall be negotiated between the Parties, in good faith, as at such time.

During the Manufacture of the Finished Product hereunder, Buyer shall be permitted to request to Supplier to have, at no additional cost, one employee, representative or agent of Buyer located at the Facility (i.e., a "person-in-plant"), , which Supplier shall reasonably consider and whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such person-in-plant shall have the function of providing quality and operational oversight with respect to Manufacture of the Finished Product, which may include, but not be limited to, observing, reporting on, and consulting as to such Manufacturing efforts in respect of relevant Finished Product. Such person-in-plant shall be subject to substantively equivalent confidentiality obligations with Buyer as Buyer is subject to hereunder. Supplier shall reasonably co-operate with Buyer in order to enable such person- in-plant to carry out their responsibilities It is further acknowledged that Supplier shall not be under any obligation to change scheduling or intending planning or timings of production and/or Manufacturing by virtue of a person-in-plant desiring to be present at Facility.

**5.** **PURCHASE PRICE, PAYMENT TERMS AND FORECASTS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1. The purchase price
 per Sellable Unit of each Finished Product hereunder shall be the commercial purchase price
 of the relevant Finished Product as set out in Schedule 1, Part 1 to this Agreement
 (the "**Purchase Price** ").Commencing on 1 January 2026 (the "**Reference Date**") and on each anniversary of the Reference Date thereafter, the Purchase Price
 for each particular Finished Product and/or Manufacturing Services and any additional services
 set forth in Schedule 1 Part 1 may be increased, in respect of the following calendar
 year and consistently with this Section 5.1, by Supplier by way of written notification
 from Supplier to Buyer, and, for clarity, the first increase of the Purchase Price shall
 not be effective until January 1, 2027. Any changes to the Purchase Price will be based
 upon the percentage change in the Producer Price Index Industry, Pharmaceutical preparations manufacturing currently available at
 http://data.bls.gov/PDQ/outside.jsp?survey=pc, industry code 325412, product code 325412325412,
 as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics; provided that any
 such price increase shall not, in a given year, exceed four percent (4%) of the previous
 year's Purchase Price (the "**Annual Increase** "). For the purposes
 of determining the amount of an Annual Increase, the index value for the preceding August of
 a relevant year in question shall be used. Additionally, Supplier may, in addition to the
 Annual Increase described above, increase the pricing for a particular Finished Product if
 Supplier experiences a significant increase in direct manufacturing costs (being a verifiable
 increase) due to a change in the Technical Requirements or Applicable Laws or due to any
 other change required by or on behalf of Buyer, according to a process described in Section 10.5
 or 10.6. (each of the foregoing, an "**Additional Increase** "). Supplier will
 notify Buyer in writing of the requirement for such Additional Increase, and, subject to
 the requirements of any confidentiality obligations that Supplier has, in relation to any
 third parties, provide suitable justification and verification data for any such increase
 prior to the implementation of such Additional Increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2. Supplier shall submit invoices to Buyer for the Purchase Price
 of a Finished Product upon delivery of the Finished Product in accordance with Section 8.
 Buyer shall pay the applicable Purchase Price for the relevant Finished Product within sixty
 (60) days after receipt of such invoice for the relevant Finished Product from Supplier.
 All payments required to be paid hereunder shall be in US Dollars and shall be made by wire
 transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Supplier.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3. Within the first five (5) business days of each calendar month
 during the Term of this Agreement, Buyer shall submit a good faith rolling forecast of estimated
 quantities of each Finished Product for the lesser of twenty four (24) months and the number
 of months remaining in the Term (each, a "**Forecast** "), the first six months
 of such Forecast (the "**Firm Zone**") will represent a firm commitment to
 purchase the quantities of the Finished Product set forth in such Forecast (a "**Firm Purchase Commitment**") and the remaining months of such Forecast will be non- binding
 estimates of future demand.

**6.** **PURCHASE ORDERS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1. Buyer shall place purchase orders with Supplier setting forth the
 quantity of the Finished Product required in Sellable Units, requested delivery dates and
 shipping instructions with respect to each shipment of relevant Finished Product for delivery.
 Each firm order submitted by Buyer to Supplier shall include delivery dates that provide
 Supplier with a lead time of not less than the Required Lead Time (as defined below in Annex
 A) in respect of such relevant Product (i.e. from the date on which the applicable purchase
 order is submitted by Buyer to Supplier). Supplier shall confirm its acceptance or rejection
 of such purchase order within ten (10) business days of its receipt of that purchase
 order; provided that any such acceptance or rejection must be consistent with this Section 6.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2. So long as submitted purchase orders are consistent with any applicable
 Firm Zone and Required Lead Times, Supplier shall accept such purchase orders and Manufacture
 and deliver to Buyer (in accordance with Section 8.2), by the requested delivery date,
 the amount of relevant Finished Product(s) that Buyer has ordered pursuant to such purchase
 orders. To the extent that Buyer wishes to order any quantities of a relevant Finished Product,
 in excess of the amount of such Finished Product that were forecasted for the Firm Zone of
 the most recent Forecast, then Supplier will use its commercially reasonable efforts to co-operate
 in good faith with Buyer to discuss possible options for supply of such excess amounts (or
 a portion thereof), but Supplier shall be under no obligation to reach agreement on supplying
 such excess amounts so (and for avoidance of doubt, any failure to reach any such agreement
 shall not be deemed as a breach of this Agreement).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3. Once a purchase order is accepted, purchase orders may be amended
 only by mutual written agreement of the Parties; provided, that Supplier shall exercise its
 commercially reasonable efforts to comply with proposed amendments to purchase orders that
 Buyer may request after sending a purchase order to Supplier; provided, further, that Supplier
 shall not be liable in any way for its inability to do so. If it is agreed that Buyer may
 modify an accepted purchase order under this Agreement, then Buyer shall be required to reimburse
 Supplier for any non- cancellable and documented costs incurred by Supplier in respect of
 the relevant order as accrued up to the time of notice to Supplier of the modification and
 any non-modifiable costs (including, but not limited to any reasonable non-cancellable costs
 of up to six (6) months' of Materials (relating to such relevant Finished Product)
 provided however that such Materials cannot be repurposed elsewhere in Supplier's business).
 Any costs to be reimbursed by Buyer to Supplier shall be verified by written evidence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4. Buyer's purchase orders shall be submitted pursuant to its
 customary purchase order form, except that ANY TERMS OR CONDITIONS INCLUDED BY BUYER OR SUPPLIER
 IN ANY PURCHASE ORDER, ACKNOWLEDGMENT OR SIMILAR STANDARDIZED FORM GIVEN OR RECEIVED
 THAT ARE ADDITIONAL TO OR INCONSISTENT WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL HAVE NO EFFECT AND SUCH
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED, unless each Party agrees in writing that such terms
 are intended to modify this Agreement.

**7.** **INABILITY TO SUPPLY** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1. Supplier shall maintain sufficient capacity to Manufacture, Package,
 Label and serialize Buyer's projected requirements for each Finished Product hereunder,
 based on any Firm Purchase Commitment submitted pursuant to Section 5.4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2. Supplier shall notify Buyer as promptly as possible in the event
 that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Supplier foresees that it will
 be unable to timely (as determined consistently with Section 8.1) deliver to Buyer the
 quantity of relevant Finished Product that Buyer has ordered pursuant to relevant accepted
 purchase orders for any reason (an "**Inability to Supply** "); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) upon Supplier becoming aware
 of a Force Majeure Event,

Such notice shall include the expected duration of such Inability to Supply or Force Majeure Event (as the case may be), and Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate, cure or overcome such Inability to Supply or resolve such Force Majeure Event and to resume performance of its obligations hereunder as soon as reasonably possible.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3. If, despite Supplier's commercially reasonable efforts, an
 Inability to Supply or Force Majeure Event, will continue, or is likely to continue for a
 period more than 6 (six) months (a "**Supply Event** "), then Supplier shall
 be promptly required to notify Buyer of such Supply Event. Following such notification (or
 occurrence of a Supply Event, if Supplier fails to provide such notice), then Buyer and Supplier
 agree that they will cooperate to establish and mutually agree, in good faith, the terms
 upon which Supplier will effect a transfer of the know-how and technical information that
 is used in or relates to the then-current process for the Manufacture of the relevant Product
 that is impacted by such Supply Event, transferred to a new third party contract manufacturer,
 to be identified and selected by Buyer (a "**Manufacturing Tech Transfer** ").
 The Parties shall mutually agree in good faith and document their agreement for such Manufacturing
 Tech Transfer in writing, which shall include terms for Supplier's commercially reasonable
 knowledge transfer support and co-operation that may be required to be provided by Supplier
 to Buyer in order to effect such Manufacturing Tech Transfer, with such agreement setting
 out, *inter alios,* commercially reasonable provisions with respect to scope of such
 supports, timing and duration of such required support and any cost allocation in connection
 with same.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4. In the event Supplier fails to ship the quantities of relevant
 Finished Product(s) ordered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (or any purchase order
 hereunder) or the Finished Product(s) shipped does not meet the Specifications, then
 in addition to other remedies available to Buyer as a result of any such failure, the Parties
 shall meet within five (5) business days of the first such occurrence to establish a
 commercially reasonable recovery plan designed to resolve the situation as quickly as reasonably
 possible.

**8.** **DELIVERY** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.1. All Finished Product delivered hereunder by Supplier shall be accompanied
 by appropriate certificates of analysis (COAs), certificates of conformity (COCs) and batch
 records demonstrating compliance with this Agreement and the Quality Agreement. Supplier
 shall keep Buyer reasonably updated with respect to progress of delivery of a purchase order
 of Finished Product hereunder and use shall commercially reasonable efforts to provide at
 least forty-five (45) days advance notice to Buyer of the date on which Finished Product
 ordered pursuant to a particular purchase order will be delivered, provided however, that
 the Parties acknowledge that there may be particular circumstances where a 45 day prior notice
 period shall not, be possible, based on those particular circumstances, and in such scenario,
 Supplier will provide prior notice to Buyer of such circumstances and the intended date of
 delivery of relevant order of Finished Product as soon as is reasonably practicable. The
 Parties acknowledge and agree that a delivery date that is within plus or minus fourteen
 (14) days of the agreed upon delivery date in the purchase order shall constitute compliance
 with Supplier's delivery obligations hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2. All Finished Product shall be delivered by Supplier Ex-Works (Incoterms®
 2020). Title to and risk of loss and/or damage to the Finished Product shall pass to Buyer
 when Finished Product is loaded onto Buyer designated carrier, which is preceded by Buyer's
 written authorization to ship. The relevant Finished Product shall have, as of the date of
 delivery in accordance with this Section 8, at least the Required Finished Product Shelf
 Life (as defined below in Annex A) in respect of such relevant Finished Product.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3. Buyer may test, or cause to be tested, the relevant Finished Product
 in accordance with the applicable Technical Requirements within thirty (30) days (or such
 other period as may be set out in the Quality Agreement) of receipt of a particular shipment
 of Finished Product at Buyer's or its Affiliates' facilities. During such thirty
 (30) day period (or other specified period), Buyer shall store and handle (or cause the storage
 and handling of) the relevant Finished Product in accordance with the requirements contained
 in the Technical Requirements. Buyer or its designee shall have the right to, within that
 thirty (30) day period (or other specified period), reject any shipment of relevant Finished
 Product made to it under this Agreement that does not conform to the applicable Technical
 Requirements then in effect when received by it (any such Product, a "**Defective Product** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.4. Buyer may also reject Defective Product delivered to Buyer hereunder
 if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the case of alleged defects
 that are readily discoverable upon a physical inspection of a relevant Finished Product shipment,
 by Buyer providing written notice thereof to Supplier not later than thirty (30) days after
 Buyer's receipt of a given shipment; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of an alleged latent
 defect or any alleged defect that was not obvious and could not be readily discovered upon
 a physical inspection of a shipment, by Buyer delivering written notice thereof to Supplier
 within thirty (30) days after the date on which Buyer discovers such defect,

in each such case, such notice specifying the delivery, purchase order number and the nature of the failure of such shipment to conform, along with reasonable evidence of such non-conformity. Finished Product not timely rejected pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4 shall be deemed to have been accepted, and Buyer shall have no further right to reject such Finished Product as Defective Product; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit, eliminate or otherwise modify Buyer's rights or Supplier's obligations under Section 12.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.5. If Supplier confirms such non-conformity, and provided that such
 non-conformity is not due to a Buyer API Responsibility, then Supplier shall promptly, replace
 such shipment for Buyer by Manufacturing a replacement batch of applicable Finished Product,
 using API supplied by Buyer, but at no other cost to Buyer, and shall issue a credit to Buyer
 of an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the total API Cost of the API used in Manufacturing
 such defective batch; provided that the total amount of any such credits, on a calendar year
 basis, shall in no case exceed a maximum of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($150,000).
 If, after its own analysis, Supplier does not confirm such non-conformity, the Parties shall
 agree to re-test, as soon practicable, the shipment or otherwise in good faith attempt to
 agree upon a settlement of the issue. In the event that the Parties cannot resolve the issue,
 the Parties shall submit the samples of the disputed Finished Product to an independent testing
 laboratory, to be agreed upon by the Parties within a reasonable period of time, for testing
 in accordance with the Specifications; provided, however, that during the pendency of such
 testing, upon Buyer's request, Supplier shall promptly replace such shipment, subject
 to payment therefor by Buyer (which shall be credited toward any subsequent purchases in
 the event such shipment is determined by such testing to not meet the Specifications then
 in effect). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the findings
 of such laboratory shall be binding on the Parties, absent manifest error. Expenses of such
 testing shall be for the account of Buyer, save that, if and to the extent that (a) the
 findings confirm non-conformity to the Specifications, and provided that such non-conformity
 did not result from a Buyer API Responsibility, then Supplier shall reimburse Buyer for the
 cost of such testing; or (b) the findings are inconclusive, then the costs of such testing
 shall be split equally between the Parties. In the event that any such shipment of relevant
 Finished Product hereunder, or samples thereof, is ultimately agreed or found not to meet
 the Specifications, Buyer shall, as instructed by Supplier, return to Supplier or destroy
 any such rejected shipment. Supplier shall pay for such return or destruction costs unless
 the non-conformity resulted from a Buyer API Responsibility. If the findings are inconclusive,
 the return or destruction costs shall be split evenly between the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.6. Buyer shall not be required to pay for any Finished Product (including
 samples thereof) that fails to meet the Specifications (or otherwise comply with any applicable
 Technical Requirements), but Buyer shall be obligated to pay in full for any rejected shipment
 of Finished Product that is subsequently determined or found to conform to the Specifications,
 according to the process described in Section 8.5. Any refund or credit for shipment
 deemed non-conforming in accordance with Section 8.5 shall be applied against the relevant
 Purchase Price or future purchase orders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1. Buyer (or any designee of Buyer) shall have the right, during normal
 business hours and upon not less than thirty (30) days' prior notice to Supplier, to
 inspect the Facility at which the Products are Processed or Manufactured or Labeled to confirm
 compliance with the terms of this Agreement, but no more than once in any year of the Term
 of this Agreement, unless a prior inspection(s) or an event(s) identified outside
 the course of external or regulatory inspections reveals discrepancies relating to compliance
 with Applicable Laws or Technical Requirement, in which case, such once-a-year restriction
 shall not apply. Such inspections shall be on mutually agreed upon dates (within the 30-day
 notice period); there shall be no more than two (2) individuals performing such inspections;
 and such inspections shall be limited to a maximum of three (3) business days per inspection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2. Supplier shall permit representatives of any Regulatory Authority
 with jurisdiction over the manufacture and sale of an applicable Product to gain access to
 the Facility at which such Product is Manufactured and Processed, and any books and records
 related thereto, as may be necessary or required. Supplier shall promptly notify Buyer of
 any proposed inspection, including general inspections (or if prior notice is not commercially
 reasonable, shall notify Buyer within 48 hours after such inspection) and provide Buyer with
 copies of any correspondence and reports with or from any Regulatory Authority directly relating
 to any Product or Finished Product or any proposed or actual inspection directly relating
 to any Product/Finished Product. Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to the
 extent practicable to do so, to provide a draft of any proposed response to any Regulatory
 Authority in respect of any matters specifically related to such matters prior to submitting
 such response to the Regulatory Authority and shall give consideration to any comments or
 suggestions Buyer may provide in respect of any such response. At Buyer's request and
 subject to Supplier's consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), Supplier
 shall permit Buyer (or a designee reasonably acceptable to Supplier) to observe any such
 inspection.

**10.** **FURTHER REGULATORY MATTERS AND FURTHER SERVICES** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1. Supplier shall maintain and operate the Facility and equipment
 used in the Processing and Manufacture of the Product into Finished Product, and shall perform
 all of Supplier's other obligations under this Agreement, in compliance with Applicable
 Laws in the Territory.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2. Supplier shall notify Buyer of Product or process related incidents
 pertaining to the Processing and/or Manufacture and/or Packaging and/or Labeling of any of
 the Products into Finished Products hereunder that would or reasonably may require notification
 to the FDA and/or any other Regulatory Authority promptly after the occurrence of such incident
 (but in no event later than five (5) business days thereafter), and shall promptly provide
 Buyer with a copy of any FDA Form 483 or similar warning, citation, form or report provided
 by an analogous Regulatory Authority received that relates to the Facility in which the relevant
 Product is Manufactured, Packaged, Labeled or tested, subject to any appropriate redactions
 necessary to protect the confidentiality of the contents thereof but only to the extent not
 relating to the relevant Product.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3. The Parties shall execute and deliver a quality agreement related
 to the manufacture, storage, and testing of each of the APIs, Materials, and Products/Finished
 Products (the "**Quality Agreement**") within a reasonable time following
 execution of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Quality
 Agreement, the Quality Agreement shall prevail for matters of quality and this Agreement
 shall control for all other matters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4. The Parties shall further execute and deliver a pharmacovigilance
 agreement in relation to the Finished Products hereunder within a reasonable time following
 execution of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.5. The Parties acknowledge that it is possible that changes in Applicable
 Laws or actions of a Regulatory Authority may require changes to be made in the Specifications
 for a Finished Product. Should this occur, then upon becoming aware of its occurrence, each
 Party will immediately notify the other Party in writing of the nature of and reason for
 any such Specification changes, and subject to Buyer (i) paying an increased Purchase
 Price for the applicable Finished Product in respect of increased costs resulting therefrom,
 and (ii) reimbursing Supplier for the costs of any Materials procured by Supplier for
 the applicable Finished Product that are rendered obsolete as a result of such Specification
 change and any associated destruction costs, and (iii) agreeing to any scheduling changes
 or other adjustments, of which Buyer is notified in writing and in advance by Supplier, that
 may be necessitated by such Specification changes, any will be implemented by Supplier, but
 strictly only to the extent that it is both commercially and operationally reasonable to
 do (but not earlier than required). Supplier shall not be required to implement such changes
 where it is unreasonable from a commercial and operational perspective to do so; provided,
 however, that in such circumstance, a Supply Event shall be deemed to have occurred and,
 upon Buyer's request, the Supplier shall cooperate with Buyer to effect a Manufacturing
 Tech Transfer upon mutually agreeable terms and in good faith, as described in Section 7.3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.6. To the extent that Buyer requests to Supplier to perform additional
 services (i.e. other than those required to Manufacture and supply Product/Finished Product
 or otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, and other than pursuant to Section 10.5
 above) for Buyer on a Product-by-Product basis, then the Supplier shall consider such request,
 subject to Supplier's then committed present and future capacity constraints affecting
 equipment, personnel, and other resources, and subject to Supplier's then business
 objectives. To the extent that the Parties agree to proceed with the provision of such additional
 services, then the Parties shall either (A) negotiate and execute a mutually agreed
 upon amendment to this Agreement; or (B) negotiate and execute a PSS, that sets forth
 the scope and costs of such additional services, as well as other additional terms and any
 usual and customary terms and conditions which shall apply to such additional services, including
 the relevant fee schedule and timelines for such additional services. For avoidance of doubt,
 any request for changes to the volumes, batch sizes, strengths, dosages or Specifications
 in respect of any Finished Product hereunder, other than Specification changes described
 in Section 10.5, shall be treated as an "additional service" and subject
 to the terms of this Section 10.6.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.7. Buyer shall have the right to designate, a maximum of one time
 in any contract year of the Term of this Agreement, one or more representatives of Buyer
 to be present at the Facility in order to observe the Manufacturing of any Finished Product
 under this Agreement and observe Supplier's performance of any services provided under
 this Agreement. While at the Facility, such representative(s) of Buyer shall (a) have
 access to provide any guidance to Supplier in connection with the Manufacturing of the relevant
 Product and performance of such services, and (b) be restricted to such areas as are
 directly relevant to the manufacture of the relevant Product and such other areas as may
 be otherwise authorized by Supplier, and shall comply with all applicable written policies
 and procedures provided in advance by Supplier to Buyer, and may, at Supplier's option,
 be escorted by Supplier personnel. Such representative shall be bound by the confidentiality
 provisions in this Agreement as well as site safety and security protocols. Buyer shall be
 required to provide Supplier with at least 30 days' prior written notice of its intention
 to designate any representative of Buyer to be present at the Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.8. The Parties acknowledge that Buyer intends to fulfill its obligation
 to supply API for the Xiaflex Product with API produced at Buyer's facility located
 in Horsham, Pennsylvania (the "**Horsham Facility**") and that, as of the
 Effective Date, Supplier is supporting scale-up operations for the production of API at the
 Horsham Facility, which will include qualification thereof by the applicable Regulatory Authorities.
 The Parties agree that shortly following the execution of this Agreement and in any event
 within 150 days of the Effective Date (or such other date as may be agreed mutually between
 the Parties hereto), the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to enter into an agreement
 or PSS with respect to such support that may be required by Buyer from Supplier in respect
 of such scale-up, with such agreement including terms with respect to scope of support, timing
 and duration of such support and prices to be paid by Buyer to Supplier in respect of such
 support.

**11.** **PACKAGING AND LABELLING** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.1. Supplier shall supply each Finished Product hereunder to Buyer
 or one of its Affiliates. Supplier shall Label and Package and serialize each Product hereunder
 in accordance with the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), GMP and Specifications which
 are provided by Buyer to Supplier.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.2. Buyer shall be responsible for the regulatory compliance of all
 package Labels, Product inserts and Packaging used in connection with each of the Finished
 Products.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.3. Buyer or its Affiliates shall be primarily responsible for adverse
 event reporting ()"**ADER**") to the FDA and/or any other applicable Regulatory
 Authorities and investigation and analysis of end-user complaints with respect to each of
 the Finished Products. Buyer or its Affiliates shall maintain ADER and other product performance
 monitoring systems for the Finished Products. Buyer shall have primary responsibility for
 communicating with the end-users to support the complaint handling process with respect to
 the Finished Products. Supplier shall co-operate with Buyer or its Affiliates in connection
 with Buyer's or its Affiliates' obligations under this Section 11.3 and
 provide to Buyer or its Affiliates, on a timely basis to permit Buyer or its Affiliates to
 fulfill its regulatory obligations, as reasonably requested by Buyer, including by providing
 reports relating to complaints and product performance issues relating to the Products and
 notifying Buyer within three (3) business days of Supplier's receipt of any adverse
 events and/or product complaints regarding the Finished Products.

**12.** **PRODUCT RECALLS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.1. In the event that any recall, end-user notice, restriction, corrective
 action or market action or a product change of a Finished Product hereunder shall be required
 by Regulatory Authorities, or Buyer voluntarily determines to recall a Finished Product hereunder
 or take any other market withdrawal action with respect to any Finished Product, Buyer shall
 conduct the recall or market withdrawal and be responsible for the overall management of
 such recall or market withdrawal, including dealing with Governmental Authorities and Regulatory
 Authorities with respect thereto. Buyer shall be responsible for all recall or market withdrawal
 expenses, except to the extent such recall, market withdrawal or other required action directly
 and/or primarily results, from such Finished Product being a Defective Product (other than
 due to a Buyer API Responsibility), or from any other breach of this Agreement by Supplier
 (a "**Supplier Recall Responsibility** "), in which case such costs and expenses
 shall be shared according to each Party's contribution to the problem. Said determination
 may be made by the Regulatory Authority involved, or by mutual agreement of the Parties following
 examination and review of all records pertinent to the manufacture of the Finished Product
 subject to such recall. Supplier shall reasonably co-operate with Buyer in effecting any
 recall of a Product pursuant to this Section 12.1, including communications with any
 end-users or to the public. In respect of any recall due in whole or material part, to a
 Supplier Recall Responsibility, Supplier shall reimburse the Buyer for an amount equal to
 the lesser of (i) ten percent (10%) of the total API Cost of the amount of API consumed
 in the recalled Product or (ii) on a calendar year basis, a maximum of one hundred and
 fifty thousand dollars ($150,000). Supplier's maximum liability in connection with
 any recall hereunder, including in respect of any obligation to reimburse Buyer for API Costs
 as provided above, shall be limited, on a calendar year basis, to the Maximum Cap Amount
 (and for avoidance of doubt, any amounts paid by Supplier in connection with a recall hereunder
 shall be included in any determination on whether Maximum Cap Amount has been reached.

**13.** **DISTRIBUTION AND MARKETING** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.1. Buyer shall have the sole and exclusive right to make determinations
 regarding the commercialization of the Products (including Finished Products) in the Territory,
 including the responsibility for all import, promotion, marketing, sales and distribution
 of the Finished Products in the Territory.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.2. The Finished Products shall be marketed and sold under the Buyer
 name and trademark (or, to the extent applicable, under a third party customer's private
 label); provided that Supplier shall be identified as the manufacturer thereof to the extent
 required by Applicable Laws.

**14.** **CONFIDENTIALITY AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE AND DATA PROTECTION** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1. A Receiving Party
 shall retain in strict confidence, and not disclose, divulge or otherwise communicate to
 any other Person, any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, whether received
 prior to or after the Effective Date, and shall not use any such Confidential Information
 for any purpose, except pursuant to the terms of, and as required to carry out such Receiving
 Party's obligations under, this Agreement, except that each Receiving Party may disclose
 Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the officers, directors, employees, agents,
 accountants, attorneys, consultants, sub-contractors or other representatives of the Receiving
 Party or its Affiliates (the "**Representatives**") who, in each case, (i) need
 to know such Confidential Information for the limited purposes of the implementation and
 performance by the Receiving Party of this Agreement, (ii) will use the Confidential
 Information only for such limited purposes, and (iii) are bound by confidentiality obligations
 no less protective than those set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2. A Receiving Party shall use at least the same standard of care
 in complying with its confidentiality obligations hereunder as it uses to protect its own
 Confidential Information of comparable sensitivity and to prevent and restrain the unauthorized
 disclosure of such Confidential Information by any of its Representatives, but in no event
 less than a reasonable standard of care. The Receiving Party shall be liable for any breach
 by any of its Representatives of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.3. Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing, the Parties
 shall not make any disclosure of Confidential Information that would be reasonably likely
 to preclude the Disclosing Party from obtaining U.S. or foreign patents on any patentable
 invention or discovery described or otherwise embodied in such Party's Confidential
 Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.4.** **Release from Restrictions.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A Receiving Party may disclose
 Confidential Information to the extent that such Confidential Information disclosure is made
 in response to a valid order or subpoena of a court of competent jurisdiction in the Territory
 or other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction or otherwise required by law, in
 the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Receiving Party; provided, however, that, to the
 extent practicable, the Receiving Party shall first, to the extent lawfully permissible to
 do so, provide written notice to the Disclosing Party reasonably in advance under the circumstances
 in order to give the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to quash such order or subpoena
 or to obtain a protective order requiring that the Confidential Information or documents
 that are the subject of such order or subpoena to be held in confidence by such court or
 Governmental Authority or, if disclosed, be used only for the purposes for which such order
 or subpoena was issued; and provided further that whether a disclosure order or subpoena
 is quashed or a protective order is obtained, any Confidential Information that may be disclosed
 in response to such court or Governmental Authority order or subpoena shall be limited to
 information that, in the opinion of counsel to the Receiving Party, is legally required to
 be disclosed in such response to such order or subpoena.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Receiving Party may also disclose
 Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is made to (i) a Governmental
 Authority as required in connection with any filing, application or request for Regulatory
 Approval with respect to the applicable Product or under the reporting requirements of any
 securities exchange on which the securities of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates are
 traded, or (ii) a Third Party to which a Receiving Party has a contractual obligation
 related to the applicable Product, but only to the extent such information is required by
 such contractual obligation, provided that in each case (clauses (i) and (ii)), reasonable
 measures are taken to ensure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A Receiving Party may disclose
 this Agreement to a Third Party in connection with or in conjunction with (i) a proposed
 merger, consolidation, sale of assets that includes those related to this Agreement, (ii) a
 permitted assignment of this Agreement, or (iii) loan financing, raising of capital,
 or sale of securities; provided, however, that the disclosing Party obtains an agreement
 for confidential treatment thereof on terms no less protective than those contained herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any Confidential Information
 disclosed pursuant to this Section 14.4 shall maintain its confidentiality protection
 and non-use restrictions for all purposes other than such disclosure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.5. **No Implied Rights.** Except as otherwise expressly set forth
 in this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed as granting any Receiving Party any
 right, title, interest in or ownership of the Confidential Information, proprietary information
 or Intellectual Property of the Disclosing Party. For the avoidance of doubt, specific information
 disclosed as part of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain
 or in the prior possession of the Receiving Party merely because it is embraced by more general
 information in the public domain or by more general information in the prior possession of
 the Receiving Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.6. **Survival of Confidentiality Obligations.** The confidentiality
 obligations of the Parties contained in this Section 14 shall remain binding on both
 Parties during the Term and for a period of five (5) years after the expiration of the
 Term or the termination of this Agreement, regardless of the cause of such expiration or
 termination; provided that the confidentiality obligations of a Receiving Party shall extend
 indefinitely with respect to any Confidential Information reasonably designated by a Disclosing
 Party as a trade secret prior to the end of such five (5) year period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.7.** **Disclosure of Terms and Use of Party's Name.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) No press release, public announcement,
 confirmation or other communication to the public or Third Parties regarding the terms of
 this Agreement or related matters shall be made by either Party without the prior written
 consent of the other Party, including with respect to the form, content and timing of such
 press release, public announcement, confirmation or other communication to the public or
 Third Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except as required by Applicable
 Laws or as to Labeling activities, no right, express or implied, is granted by this Agreement
 to either Party to use in any manner the name of the other Party or any other trade name
 or trademark of such other Party in connection with the performance of this Agreement. For
 clarity, it is understood that nothing herein shall prohibit either Party from using the
 name of the other Party (i) in certain of such Party's disclosure documents, including
 those filed or disclosed in order to comply with its obligations under Applicable Laws or
 the listing standards or agreements of any national or international securities exchange,
 The New York Stock Exchange, The NASDAQ Stock Market or other similar laws of a Governmental
 Authority, (ii) to respond to an inquiry of a Governmental Authority, or (iii) in
 a judicial, administrative or arbitration Proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.8.** **Data Protection.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties agree to the terms
 of Schedule 2 of this Agreement with respect to any Protected Personal Information relating
 to an individual natural person in the European Union. The Parties shall use good-faith efforts
 to agree upon and implement any security protocols and information-handling guidelines that
 their respective legal advisors recommend in connection with the Parties' compliance
 with Data Protection Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If either Party discovers any
 accidental, unauthorized or unlawful access to, acquisition of, loss of, alteration to, disclosure
 of or other processing of Protected Personal Information ()"**Security Incident** "),
 the discovering Party shall, at its own cost and expense, (i) investigate the Security
 Incident and promptly remediate or mitigate the effects of the Security Incident; (ii) timely
 provide any legally-required notifications to Governmental Authorities or individuals affected
 by the Security Incident, and (iii) notify the other Party of the Security Incident
 within twenty-four (24) hours, including a reasonably-detailed summary of the Security Incident
 and the corrective action taken or to be taken to remediate the Security Incident.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon termination of the Agreement,
 each Party will return or destroy (i.e., render it unreadable, unusable and indecipherable)
 all Protected Personal Information received from the other Party except as required for legal
 or regulatory purposes. All Protected Personal Information retained for legal or regulatory
 purposes after the expiration or any earlier termination of this Agreement, shall be protected
 pursuant to the terms of this Agreement until such time as the Protected Personal Information
 is no longer needed for such legal or regulatory purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Parties agree that any breach
 of this Section 14.8 is a material breach incapable of cure, for which either Party
 may terminate this Agreement upon delivery of written notice to the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Party acknowledges and agrees
 that (i) it will be too speculative to measure the damages that would be suffered by
 the other Party if such Party fails to comply with the obligations set forth in this Section
 14.8 and that, in the event of any such failure, such other Party will be irreparably harmed
 and will not have an adequate remedy at law, and (b) such other Party shall, therefore,
 be entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies, to seek to obtain specific performance
 of such Party's obligations and to seek to obtain immediate injunctive relief without
 having to post a bond.

**15.** **INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.1. **Buyer Intellectual Property**. All right, title and interest
 in Buyer Intellectual Property, including all Product Intellectual Property, shall continue
 to be owned by Buyer, subject only to the license granted under Section 1.2 above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.2. **Supplier Intellectual Property.** Supplier will continue
 to own the Supplier Intellectual Property, subject only to the license granted under Section 1.3
 above. In addition, to the extent that any Manufacturing Tech Transfer is agreed to be effected
 (as set out in Section 7.3), Supplier (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) shall,
 as at such time, and based on the particular circumstances that exist as at such time, agree
 to grant to Buyer a non-exclusive, license under any Supplier Intellectual Property that
 is strictly required to be transferred pursuant to the Manufacturing Tech Transfer or that
 would be infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated, absent a license thereto, by the
 use or practice of the applicable Manufacturing process(es) that are the subject of such
 Manufacturing Tech Transfer to manufacture, use or commercialize such Product(s), for any
 and all purposes, including in connection with the Manufacture of the applicable Product(s),
 the terms of which license shall be mutually agreed between the Parties in good faith as
 at such time as the Manufacturing Tech Transfer is executed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3. **Supplier Improvements.** Supplier hereby assigns and agrees
 to assign to Buyer (or Buyer's designee), and to procure assignments from its Affiliates
 and any sub- contractors, its and their entire right, title and interest in and to any and
 all Supplier Improvements and to execute such documents and provide such assistance as Buyer
 may reasonably request to enable Buyer or its designee to effect, perfect, enforce and maintain
 its ownership of any such Supplier Improvements.

 to claim indemnification under this Section 17.3, it shall promptly notify the other
 Party (the "**Indemnitor**") in writing of any such alleged Liabilities. The
 failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement
 of any claim or action shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any obligation to the Indemnitee
 under this Section 17.3 except to the extent the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced
 by such delay.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.3. In the event that
 the Indemnitor does not, after having been provided the written notice required by Section 17.3,
 assume and pursue in a timely and diligent manner the defense of any Third Party claim (but
 in no event later than thirty (30) days, or such shorter period as required under Applicable
 Laws), then the Indemnitor shall be deemed to have ceded control of such claim and the Indemnitee
 shall be entitled to appoint counsel of its own choice for such defense, at the cost and
 expense of the Indemnitor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.4. In the event that the Indemnitor
 assumes such defense, the Indemnitor shall have the right to control the defense thereof
 with counsel of its choice, provided that such counsel is reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee;
 and provided further that any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel at
 its own expense, or if representation of the Indemnitee by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor
 would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts or differing interests between
 such Indemnitee and such Indemnitor, at the Indemnitor's expense. The Indemnitee, its
 employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives
 in the investigation of any Liabilities covered by this Section 17.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.5. The obligations of this Section 17
 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding
 if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor (unless the Indemnitor
 is deemed to have ceded control of the applicable Third Party claim under this Section 17).
 Only Supplier or Buyer may claim indemnity under this Section 17 (on its own behalf
 or on behalf of its Indemnitees), and other Persons may not directly claim indemnity hereunder.
 For the avoidance of doubt, a permitted assignee under this Agreement is eligible to claim
 indemnity hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.6. The rights of the Buyer Indemnitees
 and the Supplier Indemnitees under this Section 17 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy
 of the Buyer Indemnitees and the Supplier Indemnitees, respectively, with respect to Third
 Party claims covered hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.7. **Limitation of Liability.** EXCEPT FOR THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 17 AND VIOLATIONS
 OF ARTICLE 14, AND UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT
 WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
 EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES TO THE OTHER PARTY, HOWEVER CAUSED, IN CONNECTION WITH
 THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF THE PARTY HAS NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR
 THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 17, VIOLATIONS OF ARTICLE 14,
 OR TO THE EXTENT RESULTING FROM SUPPLIER'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT,
 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT,
 THE TOTAL LIABILITY, IN THE AGGREGATE, OF SUPPLIER , FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LOSSES,
 COSTS OR DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ATTORNEYS' FEES AND COSTS AND
 EXPERT-WITNESS OR THIRD PARTY FEES AND COSTS OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER OR EXPENSES RESULTING
 FROM OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT FROM ANY CAUSE OR CAUSES IN RESPECT OF CLAIMS
 MADE IN ANY CALENDAR YEAR DURING THE TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED: (A) 75%
 OF THE AGGREGATE PAYMENTS RECEIVED BY SUPPLIER FROM BUYER DURING THE SIX (6) CALENDAR
 MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SUCH RELEVANT CALENDAR YEAR; and (B) 75% OF THE AGGREGATE
 PAYMENTS PROJECTED TO BE RECEIVED BY SUPPLIER FROM BUYER (AS FORECASTED) IN THE RESPECT OF
 THE FIRST SIX (6) CALENDAR MONTH PERIOD OF SUCH YEAR ; (the "**MAXIMUM CAP AMOUNT** ");
 PROVIDED THAT, IN RESPECT OF CLAIMS MADE IN THE FIRST YEAR OF THIS AGREEMENT, BEING
 THE PERIOD COMMENCING ON THE EFFECTIVE DATE AND ENDING ON DECEMBER 31, 2026 ()"**Year 1** "), THE APPLICABLE MAXIMUM CAP AMOUNT SHALL BE INITIALLY DETERMINED BASED ON AGGREGATE
 PAYMENTS PROJECTED TO BE RECEIVED BY SUPPLIER FROM BUYER IN RESPECT OF YEAR 1, TO BE RECONCILED
 AND CONFIRMED FOLLOWING THE END OF YEAR 1. In respect of any other calendar year of the Term
 of this Agreement, being any calendar year commencing following the end of Year 1, the applicable
 Maximum Cap Amount shall be initially determined based on (a) the total aggregate payments
 actually received by Supplier in the immediately preceding six month period prior to such
 applicable calendar year; and (b) any the aggregate payments projected to be received
 by Supplier from Buyer (as forecasted) in respect of the first six months of such relevant
 calendar year, to be reconciled and confirmed following the end of such six (6) month
 period. Any liability of Supplier in respect of any such claim or claims shall be dealt with
 by issuance of a credit note for the applicable amount, taking into consideration the applicable
 Maximum Cap Amount, and, in respect of any such liability in respect of such relevant calendar
 year, such credit note shall be trued up against the actual payments received by Supplier
 from Buyer during the relevant period. Each credit note shall be applied against the next
 invoice(s) issued to Buyer, until fully exhausted, and, upon any termination or expiration
 of this Agreement, if or to the extent any credit note has not been fully applied against
 invoices as of the date of such termination or expiration, Supplier shall remit to Buyer
 an amount equal to such unapplied credit note within thirty (30) days of the date of such
 termination or expiration. To the extent that the terms of this Agreement shall be applied
 to any Product/Finished Product (other than those envisaged as on the Effective Date, being
 the Xiaflex Product and/or Diluent), then an applicable limit on liability shall be mutually
 agreed in a relevant PSS to be agreed and entered into in respect of such Product/Finished
 Product.

**18.** **TERM AND TERMINATION** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1. **Term.** Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 18
 or provided otherwise with respect to a particular Finished Product, as set out in the applicable
 PSS, the initial term of this Agreement shall continue in force from the Effective Date until
 the date that is five (5) years from the Effective Date (the "**Initial Term** ");
 thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall automatically renew for additional twenty four
 (24) month periods (each, a "**Renewal Term**" and, together with the Initial
 Term, the "**Term** "), unless (a) terminated sooner in accordance with
 the terms of this Section 18, or (b) either Party provides the other Party with
 at least twelve (12) months' written notice of non-renewal prior to the expiration
 date of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term, and any such notice of non- renewal
 shall state whether for all Products or an individual PSS as applied only to the applicable
 Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any accepted purchase order or PSS extends beyond
 the expiration or termination of this Agreement, at Buyer's request, the Term shall
 be extended until delivery of the relevant Finished Product under that purchase order or
 PSS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2. **Termination for Breach.** Either Party may terminate or suspend
 performance under this Agreement (or an individual PSS) upon written notice to the other
 Party at any time during the Term, if the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement
 (or a PSS), as the case may be, and such other Party has not cured such material breach within
 forty-five (45) days after notice requesting cure of such breach, which notice sets forth
 the alleged breach in detail and states whether such Party is proposing to terminate or suspend
 performance and whether under this Agreement generally, as applied to all Products, or an
 individual PSS as applied only to the applicable Product; provided, however, that if such
 breach is not capable of cure within forty-five (45) days, but is capable of cure, and the
 breaching Party has promptly commenced, and is and continues diligently pursuing in good
 faith the remedy of any such breach, then such cure period shall be extended for such period
 as may be reasonably required to effectuate such cure; provided further, however, that if
 such breach is not capable of cure, the non- breaching Party may terminate this Agreement
 (or relevant PSS), or suspend performance under this Agreement (or relevant PSS), immediately
 by delivery of written notice thereof to such breaching Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3. **Termination for Insolvency.** Either Party may terminate
 this Agreement in the event that the other Party suffers an Insolvency Event, by delivery
 of written notice thereof by the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.4.** **Termination for Change in Conditions.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Finished Product Withdrawal.</u> Either Party may terminate the applicability of this Agreement to a particular Finished Product
 (or a particular PSS relating to a particular Finished Product), effective immediately upon
 notice to the other Party, if the Finished Product or Product is withdrawn as a result of
 FDA (or other Regulatory Authority with jurisdiction) actions or voluntarily withdrawn by
 Buyer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>At Will Termination.</u> This
 Agreement (or any PSS) may be terminated at any time for any reason by either Party with
 two (2) years prior written notice to the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Changes Required by Applicable Law.</u> If Supplier is required to change the Specifications in order to comply with Applicable
 Law or Governmental Agency, Supplier will promptly notify Buyer of such changes and the cost
 of such changes. If either Party is unable or unwilling to make such changes, either Party
 will have the option of terminating this Agreement (or PSS to the extent relevant) with twelve
 (12) months' notice to the other Party, and any such termination shall be deemed to
 be termination for a Supplier Event for purposes of Section 18.5(c).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.5. **Effect of Expiration or Termination; Manufacturing Technology Transfer**.:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If this Agreement is terminated
 or expires as to a particular Product, as provided above, it shall remain in force until
 the expiration of the Term (or earlier termination) with respect to all other Products then
 subject to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Expiration of the Term or termination
 of this Agreement for any reason shall be without prejudice to Supplier's right to
 receive all payments due and payable from Buyer as of the effective date of such termination,
 if any, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any PSS and any other legal, equitable,
 or administrative remedies as to which a Party is or may become entitled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon expiration or termination
 of this Agreement by reason of a Supplier Event and it is agreed that a Manufacturing Tech
 Transfer shall be undertaken, then the provisions of Section 7.3 shall apply and the
 Parties shall co-operate to negotiate and enter into in good faith an agreement in order
 to effect such Manufacturing Tech Transfer. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement
 for any other reason, then upon Buyer's request, the Parties will cooperate in good
 faith to establish terms for a Manufacturing Tech Transfer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.6. **Survival.** In addition to specific indications throughout
 this Agreement that Articles and Sections of this Agreement shall survive expiration and
 termination of this Agreement, Annex A, Section 14, Section 15, Section 16,
 Section 17, Section 18.5 and Section 18.6, Section 19, Section 20,
 Section 22 and any other provisions necessary and proper to give effect to the intention
 of the Parties as to the effect of the Agreement after termination shall survive any expiration
 or termination of this Agreement or any PSS. In addition, unless otherwise expressly set
 forth herein, no expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement (or PSS) shall have
 any effect on any payment, obligation accruing or arising prior to such expiration or termination
 or relieve any Party from obligations that are expressly indicated to survive termination
 or expiration of this Agreement.

**19.** **INSURANCE** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19.1. Insurance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Party shall, at its own
 cost and expense, obtain and maintain in full force and effect at all times during the Term,

 any material change in the terms or coverage of such insurance policies or their lapse, cancellation

 self-insurance or captive insurance maintained by the other party to the extent of such Party's
 indemnification obligations hereunder; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing,

 limit a Party's liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this
 Agreement.

 among others, may result in the imposition of sanctions on the other Party or its Affiliates
 in the event that, directly or indirectly, products are exported to or imported from, or
 payments are sent to or received from various countries or regions, including without limitation
 Iran, North Korea, Syria, Sudan, the Crimea region of Ukraine, or any country embargoed by
 Executive Order or otherwise, or to or from certain individuals designated or identified
 as sanctioned by the U.S. government, including persons in Russia and Ukraine. Each Party
 warrants that it has searched OFAC's Consolidated Sanctions List, available at https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/
 in order to ensure compliance with all applicable sanctions regulations.

 learns of any violation of Data Protection Laws, Applicable Laws, Export Control Laws or
 Anti- Corruption Laws by an employee or sub-contractor that performs any function under this

 responsible for and shall guarantee such performance by its Affiliates and shall cause its
 Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance
 as if it were a party hereto. Each Party hereby expressly waives any requirement that the
 other Party exhaust any right, power or remedy, or proceed against an Affiliate for any obligation
 or performance hereunder prior to proceeding directly against such Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.4. **Waiver.** The waiver by either Party of a breach of any term
 or provision contained herein shall be in writing and shall in no way be construed as a waiver
 of any succeeding breach of such term or provision or the waiver of such term or provision
 itself.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.5. **Assignment.** This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
 to the benefit of each of the Parties and their respective successors and approved assigns;
 provided, however, that neither Party may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.10. **Governing Law and Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution.** This
 Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
 New York without reference to the choice of law principles that would result in the application
 of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The Parties irrevocably waives any and all right to
 trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. In the
 event of a dispute between the Parties relating to this Agreement, the Parties agree that

 dispute resolution; provided that if either Party believes in good faith that it will suffer
 material prejudice by submitting to such informal dispute resolution with regard to a breach
 of an obligation of confidentiality, an infringement or misappropriation of a Party's
 intellectual property, or a claim for which the principal remedy sought is an equitable remedy,
 such Party need not submit to such informal dispute resolution and may proceed directly to
 formal dispute resolution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.11. **Force Majeure.** A Party shall not be liable for nonperformance
 or delay in performance of its obligations hereunder to the extent that and solely for so
 long as such nonperformance or delay in performance is caused by any event reasonably beyond
 the control of such Party, including wars, hostilities, revolutions, riots, civil commotion,
 national emergency, epidemics, pandemics, fire, flood, earthquake, force of nature, explosion,
 terrorist act, embargo, or any other Act of God, or any law, proclamation, regulation, ordinance,
 or other act or order of any court or Governmental Authority (each a "**Force Majeure Event** "). In the event of any such Force Majeure Event, the delayed Party may defer
 its performance for the duration of such Force Majeure Event, provided that the delayed Party
 gives the other Party, written notice thereof promptly and, in any event, within two (2) business
 days of discovery thereof, and uses its good faith efforts to cure the excused breach. If
 either Party is unable to perform its obligations hereunder as a result of a Force Majeure
 Event for a period of ninety (90) days or longer, then the other Party shall have the right,
 upon issuance of written notice to the other Party, to terminate this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.12. **Entire Agreement.** This Agreement (together with the Schedules,
 annexures and exhibits hereto), any Quality Agreement and pharmacovigilance agreement entered
 into hereunder constitute the entire agreement between Buyer and Supplier with respect to
 the Products and supersedes all prior representations, understandings and agreements with
 respect to the Products. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any Schedule
 attached hereto, this Agreement shall prevail over any such Schedule.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.13. **Counterparts.** This Agreement may be executed in one or
 more counterparts, including in multiple original, PDF, DocuSign and/or similar electronic
 signature technology counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes are deemed to be
 an original and all of which shall constitute an instrument. Each executed signature page to
 this Agreement and to each agreement and certificate delivered by a Party pursuant to this
 Agreement may be delivered by any of the methods described in Section 22.9, including
 via e-mail, provided that such delivery is effected in accordance with the notice information
 provided for in Section 22.9. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any
 agreement or certificate delivered pursuant hereto, or any amendment thereof, is delivered
 by electronic delivery (i.e. by e-mail delivery of a ".pdf" format data file
 or by DocuSign or similar electronic signature technology), such signature shall create a
 valid and binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
 executed) with the same force and effect as if such ".pdf" signature page or
 DocuSign or similar electronic signature technology were an original thereof. No Party shall
 raise the use of e-mail delivery of a ".pdf" format data file or DocuSign or
 similar electronic signature technology to deliver any such signature page or the fact
 that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of e-mail delivery of
 a ".pdf" format data file or DocuSign or similar electronic signature technology
 as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each Party forever waives
 any such defense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.14. **Third Party Beneficiaries.** Except as provided in Section 17.1
 and Section 17.2, (a) no term or provision of this Agreement is intended to be,
 or shall be, for the benefit of any Person that is not a party hereto, and (b) no such
 other Person shall have any right or cause of action hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*22.15.* **Cumulative Rights.** The rights and remedies of each of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Term may be extended by Tenant for up to three (3) renewal terms (each, a "***Renewal Term***") of one (1) year each if: (i) at least three (3), but not more than six (6) months prior to the end of the then current Term, Tenant delivers to Landlord a "***Renewal Notice***" that Tenant desires to exercise its right to extend this Lease for such Renewal Term; and (ii) no Event of Default by Tenant shall have occurred and be continuing on the date Landlord receives such Renewal Notice or on the last day of the then current Term. During any such Renewal Term, except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, all of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) It is the purpose and intent of Landlord and Tenant that the Rent hereunder shall be a gross amount of all expenses, costs fees, Impositions and taxes incurred for the Premises, unless Tenant requests extra services

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Tenant hereby acknowledges that any non-payment by Tenant of Rent could cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated hereunder, the exact amount of which is presently anticipated to be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if any Rent is not paid when due, then Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand a late charge equal to three percent (3%) of the delinquent amount. The parties agree that the late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. The parties further agree that such late charge does not constitute a lender or borrower/creditor relationship between Landlord and Tenant. The payment of such late charge shall not constitute waiver of, nor excuse or cure, any default under this Lease, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights and remedies available to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate amount of late charges shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by law; and Tenant has no obligation to pay a late charge unless Landlord has given Tenant at least five (5) days written notice of the delinquent payment (which may be given at any time during the delinquency) and Tenant fails to cure the outstanding payment within that time period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Impositions</u>. During the Term, Landlord shall timely pay all taxes (including, without limitation, all ad valorem property taxes against the Campus, and, sales and use, occupancy, single business, gross receipts, transaction privilege, rent or similar taxes as the same relate to or are imposed upon Landlord or the Campus), assessments (including, without limitation, all assessments for public improvements or benefit, whether or not commenced or completed prior to the Commencement Date and whether or not to be completed within the Term), water, sewer or other rents and charges, excises, tax inspection, authorization and similar fees and all other governmental charges, in each case whether general or special, ordinary or extraordinary, or foreseen or unforeseen, of every character in respect of the Campus (collectively, "***Impositions***"). Landlord shall pay all such Impositions as the same become due and payable and before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added for non-payment (and shall pay all such fines, penalties, interest and costs), such payments to be made directly to the taxing or other authorities where feasible. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay before delinquent all municipal, county, federal or state taxes coming due during the Term against Tenant's interest in the Retained Personal Property or against any other personal property owned by Tenant and placed in, upon or about the Premises by Tenant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Use of Premises</u>. Tenant may occupy and use the Premises for any lawful purpose consistent with its past practice and use immediately prior to the Commencement Date of this Lease. Tenant shall have access to the Premises twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week, three hundred sixty-five (365) days per year, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease. Tenant shall comply with all laws, regulations and ordinances from time to time concerning the Premises or the use thereof. Tenant shall not do, bring, or keep anything in or about the Premises that may reasonably be expected to cause a cancellation of or increase in premium for any insurance covering the Premises. Tenant shall be obligated to comply with any law with respect to its use of the Premises and shall not use the Premises in any manner that would reasonably be expected to constitute waste or nuisance or in a manner inconsistent with past use that would reduce the saleable value of the Premises. Landlord shall be solely responsible for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, and any similar state or local requirements (collectively, the "ADA") with respect to all portions of the Campus outside of the Premises, including all Common Areas; and Tenant shall be responsible for compliance with the ADA with respect to the Premises. As used in this Lease, the word "***law***" shall mean any judicial decision, statute, constitution, ordinance, resolution, regulation, rule, administrative order, or other requirement of any municipal, county, state, federal, or other governmental agency or authority having jurisdiction over the parties or the Campus in effect either as of the Effective Date of this Lease or at any time during the Term, including, without limitation, any regulation or order of a quasi-official entity or body (e.g., the board of fire examiners or public utilities).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Condition of the Premises</u>. Tenant acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Premises. Tenant has examined and otherwise has knowledge of the condition of the Premises and has found the same to be satisfactory for its purposes hereunder. Except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant agrees to take the Premises in its present condition "as is", "where is" and "with all faults", and acknowledges and agrees that Landlord has not made, is not making and will not make any warranty or representation of any kind, express or implied, in law or by contract, including any warranties regarding design, condition or fitness for use or otherwise, with respect to the use, state of title, liens or encumbrances, nature, physical or environmental condition, suitability for use or any other matter of the Premises or any portion thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Maintenance and Repairs</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain the Campus (except as expressly provided in Section 7(b) below) in a good and clean condition consistent with past practice and in substantially the same condition as of the Effective Date. Landlord shall promptly make all repairs, maintenance and replacements necessary to so maintain the Campus, including without limitation the Common Areas, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems and all other mechanical, electrical, and plumbing facilities and equipment serving the Buildings and Campus, exterior walls, roof, foundation, plumbing and wiring in the Buildings, all structure of the Buildings, windows, lobbies and entrances, drive lanes, sidewalks, landscaping, parking areas and all other parts of the Campus and the Buildings other than the Premises. All maintenance and repairs shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner to a standard not less than the condition of the Premises as of the Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except for systems that service other parts of Building 10, Building 20 or the Campus, as applicable, and except for all components and portions of the Building 10, Building 20 and the Campus that Landlord is required to maintain, repair or replace pursuant to this Lease, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain the Premises consistent with past practice and in substantially the same condition as of the Effective Date, and make all repairs and replacements necessary to so maintain the Premises, reasonable wear and tear and casualty excepted (the "***Maintenance and Repair Standard***"). If Tenant fails to commence necessary maintenance or repairs to the Premises within ten (10) days' written notice from Landlord and prosecute their completion in a diligent manner, then Landlord may enter the Premises and perform such repair and maintenance on behalf of Tenant. Upon completion thereof, Tenant shall pay Landlord's costs for making such repairs plus ten percent (10%) for overhead, upon presentation of an invoice therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In the event of a dispute under this Section 7, such dispute shall be settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant in St. Louis, Missouri in accordance with the then-existing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. If the parties fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the parties shall request the International Chamber of Commerce to make the appointment. The arbitrator shall be a lawyer admitted to the practice of law in the State of Missouri. All other terms of and performance under this Lease shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Alterations</u>. Tenant shall not make any alterations to the Premises that either (i) are structural in nature, or (ii) exceed a cost of $100,000, in either case, without prior written consent of Landlord, such consent to not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Tenant shall have the right without prior written consent of Landlord, to perform nonstructural alterations to the exterior of Building 20 and the interior of the Premises, consistent with past use and practice that do not exceed a cost of $100,000. Tenant shall make any such alterations approved by Landlord, or such alterations that do not require the consent of Landlord, in a lien-free and good and workmanlike manner in compliance with all applicable laws and shall pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such alterations. All alterations, additions, substitutions and leasehold improvements (other than those Tenant notifies Landlord shall be treated as Retained Personal Property, it being agreed that any and all alterations after the Effective Date hereof comprising of fixtures will not be removed at the end of Term) made and installed for Tenant pursuant to this Section, shall become Landlord's property at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to remove from the Premises prior to the expiration of the Term any movable trade fixtures and furniture as long as (i) Tenant is not then in an Event of Default hereunder and (ii) the removal will not cause any damage to the Premises or as long as Tenant repairs any damage caused by such removal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Liens</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Tenant shall pay all costs for construction, work or services done by it or caused to be done by it on the Premises, and Tenant shall keep the Premises free and clear of all liens and encumbrances resulting from or purported to be due for, any labor, services, materials, supplies, or equipment furnished to or for Tenant in, upon or about the Premises. Tenant agrees, subject to Tenant's right to contest the correctness or the validity of any such lien or encumbrance as set forth in Section 9(b) below, to discharge of record (either by payment or by bonding over or otherwise) any mechanics', materialmen's, or other lien against the Premises and/or Landlord's interest therein, which liens may arise out of any payment due for, or purported to be due for, any labor, services, materials, supplies, or equipment furnished to or for Tenant in, upon or about the Premises. If Tenant shall fail to cause such lien to be discharged or bonded within sixty (60) days after being notified of the filing thereof, and Tenant is not contesting such liens as set forth in Section 9(b) below, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may bond over the same, and the amount so paid by Landlord to do so, including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord either in defending against such lien or in procuring the bonding of such lien, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may contest the validity of any liens so long as (i) Tenant notifies Landlord in writing that it intends to contest such liens, (ii) Tenant provides Landlord with an indemnity, bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord assuring the discharge of Tenant's obligations for such liens, including interest and penalties, in an amount no greater than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the contested amount, and (iii) Tenant is diligently contesting the same by appropriate legal proceedings in good faith and at its own expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Utilities and Services</u>. Landlord shall be solely responsible for obtaining, maintaining and furnishing to the Common Areas and the Premises gas, electricity, water and sewer, trash collection and any other utilities or services used at the Premises during the Term and consistent with its past practice and use immediately prior to the Effective Date of this Lease (the "***Utilities***"). In addition to the Utilities, Landlord will furnish the following services, which, unless specific provision is made therefor, shall be of the manner and at levels customary for similarly-situated buildings: (a) elevator service, hot and cold water for lavatory and drinking purposes (at all points of supply for drinking, pantry, kitchen and lavatory purposes), and electricity, (b) janitorial and cleaning services on weekdays after Normal Building Hours (defined below) (excluding the Holidays defined below), (c) building security for the Premises on a 24/7 basis, with after-hours access via card reader, and (d) heating, ventilation and air conditioning ("***HVAC***") as necessary for the comfortable use and occupancy of the Premises between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday and between 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Saturday ("***Normal Building Hours***"), except on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, the day after Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day ("***Holidays***"). Tenant may request from time to time, and Landlord shall furnish, HVAC service on days and at times other than Normal Building Hours. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for the actual cost of this after-hours service within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice for the same from Landlord. Tenant is responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for its data and telephone services. If Tenant wishes to install a separate security system or additional security equipment for the Premises, then such system or equipment must be compatible with the access control systems for the Building, and Tenant will be solely responsible for any costs incurred in the installation of such system or equipment. Landlord shall keep and maintain the Common Areas in good working order and good condition and repair at all times. If any Utilities are suspended or curtailed due to accident, emergency, mechanical breakdown or any other cause, Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to restore the services with reasonable dispatch, but Landlord will not have liability for the curtailment or suspension of services that are outside of Landlord's reasonable control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) any service to be furnished under this Lease is interrupted because of the acts of Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors; (ii) such interruption is not caused by a fire or other casualty governed by Section 13 hereof; and (iii) as a result of such interruption, all or a material portion of the Premises is rendered untenantable (meaning that Tenant is unable to use all or a portion of the Premises in the normal course of its business), then Tenant's sole remedy for such interruption shall be as follows: on the third (3rd) consecutive business day following the date the Premises (or material portion thereof) becomes untenantable, the Rent payable hereunder shall be abated on a per diem basis for each day after such three (3) business day period based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered untenantable, and such abatement shall continue until the date the Premises become tenantable again.

Landlord hereby releases Tenant, and its employees, agents and representatives, from any claims for damage to any person or to the Campus and to the fixtures, personal property, improvements, and alterations in or on the Campus that are caused by or result from risks insured against under any insurance policies carried by Landlord and in force at the time of any such damage (or is required to be insured against under the terms of this Lease). Tenant hereby releases Landlord, and its employees, agents and representatives, from any claims for damage to any person or to the Premises and to the fixtures, personal property, improvements, and alterations in or on the Premises that are caused by or result from risks insured against under any insurance policies carried by Tenant and in force at the time of any such damage (or is required to be insured against under the terms of this Lease). Where permitted by law Landlord and Tenant shall cause each insurance carrier to waive all right of recovery by way of subrogation against the other in connection with any damage covered by any policy. In no event shall Landlord or Tenant be liable to the other for any damage, liability or injury caused by fire or any of the risks insured against under any insurance policy required by this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Damage or Destruction</u>. If, during the Term, a portion of Building 10, Building 20 or the Premises is damaged or destroyed or rendered totally or substantially inaccessible or unusable by fire, casualty or any other cause, which would reasonably require less than ninety (90) days to restore, then Landlord shall restore the damaged portion of the Building and Premises to substantially the same or better condition as it was in before the damage or destruction. Such damage or destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If, during the Term, all or a portion of Building 10, Building 20 or the Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty, or any other cause rendering Building 10, Building 20 or the Premises totally or substantially inaccessible or unusable, or is subject to damage or destruction which would reasonably require more than ninety (90) days to restore, then Landlord and Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease. If neither party exercises such termination right, then Landlord shall restore or replace the damaged or destroyed portions of Building 10, Building 20, the Premises and/or the Campus within one hundred and eighty (180) days following the date of the damage or destruction or as soon as commercially reasonable; Tenant shall thereafter restore or replace the improvements to the Premises required to be insured by Tenant hereunder within a commercially reasonable time period; and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. Rent shall be abated for the portion of the Premises damaged or destroyed or rendered totally or substantially inaccessible or unusable until Landlord completes the repairs and restoration, or, if this Lease is terminated, until the effective date of such termination. If either party elects to terminate this Lease as provided in this Section, then this Lease shall terminate on the date which is thirty (30) days following the date of the notice of termination as if the Term had been scheduled to expire on such date, and, except for obligations which are expressly stated herein to survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, neither party shall have any liability to the other party as a result of such termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Condemnation</u>. If Building 10, Building 20 or all of the Campus is taken by condemnation or agreement in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate on the date the condemning authority has the right to possession of the property being condemned. If less than all, but a substantial part, of the Premises or Campus shall be taken by condemnation or agreement in lieu thereof, each of the Landlord and Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective on the date the condemning authority has the right to possession of the property being condemned, by providing written notice to the other party at least 60 days prior to the effective date of the proposed taking. In the event of a taking of a substantial part of the Premises or Campus, and neither party has exercised its right to terminate, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect, provided that Rent shall be proportionately reduced. The entire award for any taking shall belong to the Landlord, except for any award that is specifically allocated to Tenant's Retained Personal Property or moving expenses (if any), which may be claimed by Tenant. For purposes hereof, a portion of the Premises will be deemed "substantial" if the taking of such portion of the Premises renders the remaining Premises unsuitable for its primary intended use.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. <u>Assignment</u>. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 15, Tenant shall not assign, sublet, mortgage, encumber or otherwise transfer or dispose of any portion of its interest in this Lease. Tenant shall have the right, with Landlord's prior written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, to assign its interest in this Lease (subject to the terms of this Lease) to any third party that agrees to assume the obligations of Tenant under this Lease. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant has the right to assign its interest in this Lease to any corporation, partnership or other entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control (direct or indirect), directly or indirectly, with Tenant without Landlord's prior written consent (subject to the terms of this Lease). Tenant shall not be permitted to assign this Lease, in whole or in part, for security purposes, to any lender providing financing to Tenant or any of Tenant's affiliates. Any assignment (whether requiring and obtaining or not requiring Landlord's consent) shall not release Tenant from its obligations under this Lease as primary obligor. <u>A change of control in Tenant shall not be deemed an assignment under this Lease</u>. Landlord shall have the right without consent of Tenant to sell its fee interest in the Premises and its rights under this Lease to any third party in Landlord's sole discretion, subject to Tenant's rights under the terms of this Lease and the purchaser's assumption thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. <u>Tenant's Default</u>. The occurrence of either of the following shall constitute an "***Event of Default***" by Tenant:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) failure to pay Rent or any other monetary obligation when due, if the failure continues for five (5) days after notice has been given to Tenant; provided, however, Tenant shall only have three (3) opportunities to cure any such monetary obligation under this Section 16(a) during any consecutive twelve (12) month period, and any subsequent monetary default within such twelve (12) month period shall constitute an Event of Default, without the five (5) day grace period;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any violation of Section 15 hereof by Tenant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) failure to perform any other provision of this Lease if the failure to perform is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice has been given to Tenant. If the default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, an Event of Default shall not exist under this Lease if Tenant commences to cure the default within the thirty (30) day period and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the default; provided however the period within which such default may be cured shall not exceed one hundred fifty (150) days in the aggregate. Notices given under this Section shall specify in reasonable detail the alleged default; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Except to the extent the same are directed or consented to by Landlord or its direct or indirect parent entities:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i. Tenant shall be adjudged an involuntary bankrupt, or a decree or order approving, as properly filed, a petition or answer filed against Tenant seeking the reorganization of Tenant under the Federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter amended, or under the laws of any state, shall be entered, and any such decree or judgment or order shall not have been vacated or set aside within ninety (90) days from the date of the entry or granting thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii. Tenant shall file any petition in bankruptcy or any petition pursuant to the Federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter amended, or Tenant shall institute any proceeding or shall give its consent to the institution of any proceedings for any relief of Tenant under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws or any laws relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment or indebtedness, reorganization, arrangements, composition or extension;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; iii. Tenant shall make any assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

Pursuit of the any remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any other remedies herein provided or any other remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent or other money obligation due to Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the covenants and provisions herein contained. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an Event of Default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such Event of Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. <u>Signage</u>. Landlord, at its cost and expense, shall provide Tenant with a listing on the main Building 10 directory in the lobby, if any. Any changes requested by Tenant to the initial directory shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and expense and shall be subject to Landlord's approval. Landlord agrees that Tenant has the right to install Building standard (i) suite identification signage on the second floor of Building 10 at the entry to the Suite 201 Premises and the Suite 202 Premises, (ii) directional signage in the elevator lobby on the second floor of Building 10 and (iii) signage at the entrance to Building 20, all in a location and with the size, color, and other aesthetics determined reasonably approved by Landlord. Such signage shall be at Tenant's cost and expense. Landlord may install such other signs, advertisements, notices or tenant identification information on the Building 10 directory, tenant access doors or other areas of Building 10, as it shall deem necessary or proper. Tenant shall not place any exterior signs on the Premises or any other signs in the Premises (that are visible from outside the Premises) or Building 10 without the prior written consent of Landlord. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord may immediately remove any sign(s) placed by Tenant in violation of this Section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. <u>Notice</u>. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, or communication that either party desires or is required to give to the other party or any other person shall be in writing, shall be addressed to the other party at the address set forth by the signatures on this Lease, and shall be either served personally or sent by overnight courier (e.g., FedEx or UPS). Either party may change its address by notifying the other party of the change of address at least thirty (30) days in advance. Notice shall be deemed effective as of the time of delivery (or upon refusal of delivery) if sent as provided in this Section, provided that a copy thereof is also sent by email to the email addresses set forth on the signature page of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. <u>Surrender of Premises; Holding Over</u>. Upon expiration or termination of the Term, the following provisions of this Section 20 shall apply. Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the Premises and all Tenant's improvements and alterations in broom clean condition and at the Maintenance and Repair Standard (except in respect of destruction to the Premises covered by Section 13 hereof), except for alterations that Tenant has the right, or is obligated, to remove. Except for the Retained Personal Property that Tenant removes from the Premises at the end of the Term, all furniture, fixtures and equipment and other items of personal property shall become the property of Landlord at the end of the Term. Tenant shall remove all its Retained Personal Property prior to or upon expiration of the Term, except as indicated to the contrary on <u>Exhibit D</u>. If there is any unrestored damage or destruction to the improvements within the Premises for which Tenant is responsible for insuring and repairing under this Lease, then Tenant shall remain liable for all such restoration obligation after the termination of this Lease. Tenant shall perform all restoration made necessary by the removal of any alterations, if any, or Tenant's personal property within the time period stated in this Section in accordance with the Maintenance and Repairs Standard. Landlord can elect to retain or dispose of in any manner any alterations or Retained Personal Property that Tenant does not remove from the Premises on expiration or termination of the Term. Title to any such alterations or Retained Personal Property or Tenant's other personal property it does not remove from the Premises at the end of the Term that Landlord elects to retain or dispose of on expiration of the Term shall vest in Landlord. If Tenant, with Landlord's prior written consent, remains in possession of the Premises after expiration or termination of the Term, or after the date in any notice given by Landlord to Tenant terminating this Lease, such possession by Tenant shall be deemed to be a month-to-month tenancy at a rental equal to $231,666.91 per month, payable to Landlord. During any such month-to-month tenancy, Tenant shall pay such Rent required by this Lease. All provisions of this Lease shall apply to the month-to-month tenancy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. <u>Environmental Liability</u>. Except to the extent caused by any act or omission in breach of this Lease after the Effective Date by Tenant or its affiliates, agents, contractors, employees, suppliers, licensees or invitees, members, lenders, or successors or assigns, liability for environmental, structural and any other matter related to the conditions of and on the Premises that exist as of the Effective Date shall be the responsibility of Landlord.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22. <u>Parking</u>. Tenant shall be entitled to the non-exclusive use of the parking area at the Campus, provided that (i) Tenant shall not use more than a total of 100 parking spaces at the Campus and (ii) of such total parking spaces, Tenant shall have the right to use one (1) double/tandem reserved parking space (i.e., two spaces) in the underground parking garage located under Building 10, which double/tandem parking space shall be in a location designated by Landlord (such space, the "***Tenant Reserved Space***"). Except with respect to the Tenant Reserved Space, Tenant's parking rights shall be provided on an unreserved, "first-come, first served" basis. Tenant agrees not to exceed Tenant's parking space allocation herein and agrees to cooperate with Landlord and other tenants in the use of the parking facilities. Landlord reserves the right to adopt, modify and enforce reasonable rules and regulations governing the use of the parking areas from time to time including designation of assigned parking spaces, requiring use of any pass, key- card, sticker, or other identification or entrance systems and charging a fee for replacement of any such pass, key-card, sticker, or other item used in connection with any such system and hours of operations or charging fees for the use of electric vehicle charging stations based upon electricity consumption. If Landlord institutes a parking access control system, then Landlord shall provide passes, key-cards, stickers, or other access control devices, as applicable, to Tenant to be distributed to Tenant's employees at the Premises, provided that in no event shall the total number of access control devices issued to Tenant's employees at any given time exceed the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant. Tenant's use of the parking area shall comply with such rules and regulations and with all laws. Landlord may refuse to permit any person who violates such rules and regulations to park at the Campus, and any violation of the rules and regulations shall subject the car to removal. Landlord reserves the right to validate visitor parking by such method or methods as Landlord may reasonably approve, if such validation becomes necessary in Landlord's reasonable discretion. Landlord reserves the right in its absolute discretion, however, to allocate parking spaces between Tenant and other occupants and tenants, provided that the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant shall not be decreased. No vehicle may be repaired or serviced at the Campus and any vehicle brought into the Campus by Tenant and deemed abandoned by Landlord will be towed and all costs thereof shall be borne by Tenant. All driveways, ingress and egress, and all parking spaces are for the joint use of all tenants of the Campus. There shall be no parking permitted on any of the streets or roadways located on the Campus. In addition, Tenant agrees that its employees will not park in the spaces designated for visitor parking. All motor vehicles (including all contents thereof) shall be parked at the Campus at the sole risk of Tenant, it being expressly understood Landlord has no duty to insure any of said motor vehicles (including the contents thereof), and Landlord is not responsible for the protection and security of such vehicles. **NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS WHICH MIGHT OCCUR ON IN THE PARKING AREAS OR AS A RESULT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PARKING OF MOTOR VEHICLES.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23. <u>Common Amenities</u>. So long as a fitness center is offered by Landlord at the Campus (the "***Fitness Center***"), Tenant's employees shall have access to such Fitness Center. Tenant's use of the Fitness Center shall be subject to availability and governed by Landlord's rules and regulations that are then in effect. Tenant's use of the Fitness Center is voluntary and shall be undertaken by Tenant at its sole risk. Tenant understands that a condition to an employee's use of the Fitness Center is that each person using the Fitness Center must execute a release on Landlord's standard form prior to such employee's use thereof. During the Term, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to operate the cafeteria located on the first floor of Building 10 (the "***Building 10 Cafeteria***") at least four days a week during Normal Building Hours in a manner consistent with past practice before the Effective Date. If the number of Tenant employees regularly utilizing the Building 10 Cafeteria on a weekly basis is insufficient in Landlord's reasonable opinion to justify such continued operation of the Building 10 Cafeteria, then Landlord and Tenant shall meet and discuss a mutual plan for the future operation of the Building 10 Cafeteria, both parties being reasonable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24. <u>Time of Essence</u>. Time is of the
 essence of each provision of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;25. <u>Successors</u>. This Lease shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;26. <u>Real Estate Brokers</u>. Each party represents that it has not had any dealings with any real estate broker, finder, or other person with respect to this Lease in any manner. Each party shall hold harmless the other party from all damages resulting from any claims that may be asserted against the other party by any broker, finder, or other person with whom the other party has or purportedly has dealt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27. <u>Exhibit</u>. Any exhibit referred to
 is attached to this Lease and incorporated by reference.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28. <u>Governing Law</u>. This Lease shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29. <u>Severability</u>. Any term or provision of this Lease that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Lease in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Lease is so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;30. <u>Estoppel</u>. Upon ten (10) business days following a request by a party, the other party shall provide to the requesting party and any designee of requesting party, an estoppel certificate stating the Rent, Term and whether Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, has defaulted in the performance of any of its obligations under the terms of this Lease, and if so, specifying each such default, and such other information as may be reasonably requested by the requesting Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;31. <u>Quiet Enjoyment</u>. Landlord represents and warrants that it will provide to Tenant quiet enjoyment of the Premises throughout the Term free of any claim or other action by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to all liens and encumbrances affecting the Premises on or after the Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32. <u>Exculpation</u>. Tenant agrees that it shall look solely to Landlord's interest in the Campus and the sale, property insurance, and condemnation proceeds thereof for recovery in the event of any default in the performance or observance of any of the terms or conditions of this Lease and nothing in this Lease shall impose any personal liability upon Landlord or any entity or person who at any time may, in whole or in part, comprise Landlord or any successor thereto or any other person having or acquiring any right, title or interest in the Premises and, in the event of default under this Lease, no deficiency or any other money judgment shall be rendered or entered against Landlord personally or any such other entity or person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33. <u>Subordination</u>. This Lease and Tenant's interests hereunder shall at all times be subject and subordinate to the lien and security title of any ground or underlying leases (if any) and to all mortgages or deeds of trust or deeds to secure debt and related loan documents (collectively, "***Security Instruments***") and to any and all advances to be made thereunder and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, substitutions and extensions thereof and to all of the terms and conditions of the other documents evidencing and securing the loan secured by any Security Instrument. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument which may be required to evidence such subordination to any Security Instrument or other loan documents and to the holder thereof. In the event of Tenant's failure to deliver such subordination, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies for breach of covenant hereunder, execute, acknowledge and deliver the instrument as the agent or attorney-in-fact of Tenant, and Tenant hereby irrevocably constitutes Landlord its attorney-in-fact for such purpose, Tenant acknowledging that the appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Tenant hereby waives and releases any claim it might have against Landlord or any other party for any actions lawfully taken by the holder of any Security Instrument or other loan document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34. <u>Attorneys' Fees</u>. In any proceeding (including any arbitration proceeding pursuant to Section 7) between the parties arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the non-prevailing party shall pay to the prevailing party any out-of-pocket costs and reasonable attorneys' fees which may be incurred by the prevailing party in such action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35. <u>Counterparts; Electronic Signature</u>. This Lease may be executed in counterparts. All executed counterparts shall constitute one agreement, and each counterpart shall be deemed an original. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that electronic signatures, facsimile signatures or signatures transmitted by electronic mail in so-called "pdf" format shall be legal and binding and shall have the same full force and effect as if an original of this Lease had been delivered.

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Mallinckrodt Completes Spin-Off of Par Health, Introduces Keenova Therapeutics**

*Keenova Focused on Advancing Therapies to Address Unmet Patient Needs*

*Company Intends to Pursue Public Equity Listing in 2026*

DUBLIN, Nov. 10, 2025 -- Mallinckrodt plc ("Mallinckrodt") today announced the completion of the planned spin-off of its Par Health generic pharmaceuticals and sterile injectables businesses. Moving ahead, Mallinckrodt will be known as Keenova Therapeutics ("Keenova" or the "Company") and will focus on developing, manufacturing, and commercializing branded therapeutics that help patients with rare or unaddressed conditions live happier and healthier lives.

"We are proud to introduce Keenova Therapeutics as a new company with a new identity and a new future," said Siggi Olafsson, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The name 'Keenova' reflects two complementary attributes of our Company – a keen focus on helping patients receive the care they deserve and the innovation required to develop our therapeutics. Our tagline – 'Keen to Solve, Keen to Serve' – underscores our commitment to solving the challenges our patients face and serving them with integrity."

Keenova currently intends to pursue a listing of its ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange in 2026, subject to approval by Keenova's Board of Directors and other considerations and conditions. The Company expects to conduct a public offering of its ordinary shares to facilitate the listing at that time.

Mr. Olafsson added, "On behalf of our Board and leadership team, I thank our team members for the extraordinary effort required to make Keenova a reality. We are excited about the tremendous opportunities we see ahead to support patients and providers and to create value for our shareholders, employees, customers, and other stakeholders."

**Portfolio Positioned for Growth**

Keenova consists of the branded businesses of Mallinckrodt and Endo, Inc., which completed their merger in July 2025. The Company had 2024 pro-forma combined revenue of $1.7 billion and employs more than 1,600 team members. Keenova is globally headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, with a U.S.-focused commercial and manufacturing footprint.

Keenova's leading therapeutics include Acthar<sup>®</sup> Gel, a corticotropin treatment for people living with certain chronic or acute inflammatory or autoimmune conditions, and XIAFLEX<sup>®</sup>, a nonsurgical injectable biologic that selectively targets collagen in adults with Dupuytren's contracture and Peyronie's disease.

Moving forward, Keenova's strategic focus is on building on its strong foundation by pursuing opportunities to grow its pipeline and expand its diversified brands portfolio across a wide range of therapeutic areas of significant unmet need, including rheumatology, ophthalmology, nephrology, pulmonology, neurology, urology, and orthopedics. This strategy is supported by strong commercial capabilities, a robust quality and compliance culture, financial flexibility and an experienced leadership team.

**Advisors**

Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz served as the Company's lead counsel, and Arthur Cox served as Irish counsel. Hogan Lovells also served as counsel to the Company.

the Company's tax treatment by the Internal Revenue Service under Section 7874 and Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; future changes to applicable tax laws or the impact of disputes with governmental tax authorities; the impact of Irish laws; the comparability of the Company's post-emergence financial results and the projections filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware and the lack of comparability of the Company's historical financial statements and information contained in its financial statements after the adoption of fresh-start accounting following emergence from Mallinckrodt's and Endo's respective bankruptcy proceedings.

The "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2024, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 28, 2025, its Quarterly Report for the quarterly period ended June 27, 2025, and its Quarterly Report for the quarterly period ended September 26, 2025 to be filed with the SEC, its Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, filed with the SEC, and other filings with the SEC, all of which are on file with the SEC and available from the SEC's website (www.sec.gov) and the Company's website (www.keenova.com), identify and describe in more detail the risks and uncertainties to which the Company's businesses are subject. There may be other risks and uncertainties that we are unable to predict at this time or that we currently do not expect to have a material adverse effect on our business.

**UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION**

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information ("Pro Forma Financial Information") is derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Mallinckrodt plc ("Mallinckrodt" or the "Company"), Endo, Inc. ("Endo"), and Endo International Plc ("Endo's Predecessor"). The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is informational and presented to illustrate the pro forma effects of the separation of Mallinckrodt's Specialty Generics business and Endo's Generic Pharmaceuticals and Sterile Injectables businesses as an independent entity named Par Health (the "Spin-off"), which was completed on November 10, 2025 and certain other transactions (as described in Note 1 and Note 3). The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is not necessarily indicative of the financial results that would have occurred if the transactions described below occurred on the dates indicated, nor is such unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations in future periods.

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the Pro Forma Financial Information, and the historical financial statements and accompanying notes of Mallinckrodt, Endo, and Endo's Predecessor as described in Note 2.

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. After the date of the Spin-off, the historical financial results of Mallinckrodt's Specialty Generics business and Endo's Generic Pharmaceuticals and Sterile Injectables businesses will be reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for all periods. The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been presented to reflect Mallinckrodt's Specialty Generics business and Endo's Generic Pharmaceuticals and Sterile Injectables businesses as discontinued operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 205-20, *Discontinued Operations* ("ASC 205-20"), for all relevant periods presented.

The merger between Mallinckrodt and Endo (the "Business Combination"), which was completed on July 31, 2025, is reflected in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information using the acquisition method of accounting under ASC Topic 805, *Business Combinations* ("ASC 805"), which requires that one of the two companies in the Business Combination be designated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. Mallinckrodt is the acquirer in the Business Combination for accounting purposes. The assets and liabilities of Endo have been measured based on various preliminary estimates, using assumptions that Mallinckrodt believes are reasonable based on information that is currently available. As of the date of this filing, the valuation of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed remains ongoing and material adjustments may be made. The allocation of the merger consideration is preliminary, pending finalization of various estimates and analyses. Since the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared based on preliminary fair values, the final amounts recorded for the acquisition date fair values, including goodwill, may differ materially from the information presented.

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information does not reflect future events that may occur after the Spin-off, including potential impacts of any cost or growth synergies or dis-synergies related to the Business Combination or the Spin-off, any cost savings that the combined company may achieve as a result of the Business Combination, or the costs required to integrate the operations of Mallinckrodt and Endo or to achieve these cost or growth synergies. As such, the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information should not be used to project Mallinckrodt's financial performance for any future period. A number of factors may affect the results.

*(unaudited; dollars in millions)*

**1.** **Description of Transactions** 

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information primarily reflects the pro forma effects of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Spin-off of Par Health*** – On November 10, 2025, Mallinckrodt completed the previously announced separation of its
Specialty Generics business and Endo's Generic Pharmaceuticals and Sterile Injectables businesses as an independent entity named
Par Health. In October 2025, prior to the Spin-off, Mallinckrodt issued 45,564 preferred shares for each outstanding Mallinckrodt ordinary
share to shareholders of record as of October 8, 2025. The preferred shares carried no voting rights, dividend entitlement, or enforceable
redemption rights.

Mallinckrodt preferred shares held by certain qualified shareholders (including qualified institutional buyers) were redeemed in exchange for 0.0000219471513 shares of Par Health common stock per Mallinckrodt preferred share, and Mallinckrodt preferred shares held by non-qualified shareholders were redeemed for $0.000424786467775745 in cash per Mallinckrodt preferred share (or $19.35497062 per Mallinckrodt ordinary share). Therefore, none of the Mallinckrodt preferred shares remain issued and outstanding.

The Company concluded that the Spin-off was a pro rata distribution of economic value among shareholders, whereby the value of the shares received by qualified shareholders was commensurate with the cash amount received by non-qualified shareholders. As a result, the Company accounted for the Spin-off at the carrying amount of the net assets distributed. The Company reduced its equity by the carrying amount of Par Health's assets and liabilities after taking into account any potential impairment, with no gain or loss recognized (the "Redemption").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Other Spin-off Related Transactions*** – The impact of a Tax Matters Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement, Transition
Services Agreement, and Amended and Restated Multi-Tenant Agreement that the Company entered into with Par Health and its subsidiaries
("SpinCo Group") in connection with the Spin-off ("Other Spin-off Related Transactions").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Other Transactions*** – The Mallinckrodt and Endo Business Combination, the Financing and Prepayment of Historical
Mallinckrodt Indebtedness and makewhole premium, Mallinckrodt's Therakos Divestiture, Endo's International Pharmaceuticals
Business Divestiture, and Endo's Reorganization and Fresh-Start Accounting, as further described in Note 3 (collectively referred
to as the "Other Transactions"). Refer to Note 3 for the pro forma effect of the Other Transactions.

**2.** **Basis of Presentation** 

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is presented in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and has been compiled from historical consolidated financial statements of Mallinckrodt, Endo, and Endo's Predecessor, each prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

Mallinckrodt reports its results based on a "52-53 week" year ending on the last Friday of December. For 2024, the fiscal year represented the period from December 30, 2023 to December 27, 2024 (Successor). For 2023, the fiscal year comprised the period from November 15, 2023 through December 29, 2023 (Successor) and the period from December 31, 2022 through November 14, 2023 (Predecessor). For 2022, the fiscal year comprised the period from June 17, 2022 through December 30, 2022 (Predecessor) and the period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor). The six months ended June 27, 2025 refers to the twenty-six week period ended from December 28, 2024 to June 27, 2025. Endo reported its results on a calendar year basis, with the most recent year ending on December 31, 2024, and the most recent quarter ending on June 30, 2025. The interim statement of operations information for the six months ended June 27, 2025 and the annual statement of operations information for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2024 is combined within the Pro Forma Financial Information, given the difference in the fiscal year end of Mallinckrodt and Endo is less than one quarter.

as if it had been completed as of January 1, 2024, the beginning of Endo's most recently completed fiscal year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the period from November 15, 2023 through December 29, 2023
(Successor), for the period from December 31, 2022 through November 14, 2023 (Predecessor), for the period from June 17, 2022 through
December 30, 2022 (Predecessor), and for the period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) gives effect to the Spin-off,
which reflects the presentation of Mallinckrodt's Specialty Generics business as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC
205-20.

The financial information of Mallinckrodt's Specialty Generics business and Endo's Generic Pharmaceuticals and Sterile Injectables businesses reflected in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information in the "Discontinued Operations" columns was derived from:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Mallinckrodt's consolidated financial information and related accounting books and records as of and for the six months ended
June 27, 2025 (Successor), for the year ended December 27, 2024 (Successor), for the period from November 15, 2023 through December 29,
2023 (Successor), for the period from December 31, 2022 through November 14, 2023 (Predecessor), for the period from June 17, 2022 through
December 30, 2022 (Predecessor), and for the period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor), and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Endo's consolidated financial information and related accounting books and records as of and for the six months ended June 27,
2025 (Successor), for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Successor), and for the period from January 1, 2024 through April 23, 2024 (Predecessor).

The information in the "Discontinued Operations" columns in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information does not include any allocation of general corporate overhead expense or interest expense of Mallinckrodt and was adjusted to include certain assets and liabilities that will be transferred to Par Health pursuant to the Separation Agreement, and exclude certain liabilities related to Par Health that will be retained by Mallinckrodt in connection with the Spin-off. Discontinued Operations does not reflect what Par Health's results of operations would have been on a stand-alone basis and are not necessarily indicative of future results of operations. Beginning with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending in December 2025, Mallinckrodt's Specialty Generics business and Endo's Generic Pharmaceuticals and Sterile Injectables businesses' historical financial results for periods prior to the Spin-off will be reflected in Mallinckrodt's consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations, with prior periods retrospectively revised, in accordance with ASC 205-20.

The Business Combination is reflected in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805. U.S. GAAP requires that one of the two companies in the Business Combination be designated as the acquirer for accounting purposes based on the evidence available. Mallinckrodt is the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. In identifying the Company as the acquiring entity for accounting purposes, management considered the voting rights of all equity instruments, the composition of the corporate governing body and senior management, the size of each of the companies, and the terms of the exchange of equity interests.

The acquisition method of accounting uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures* ("ASC 820"). Fair value is defined in ASC 820 as "the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date." Fair value measurements can be highly subjective and it is possible the application of reasonable judgment could develop different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances. The allocation of the merger consideration is preliminary, pending finalization of various estimates and analyses. Since the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared based on preliminary fair values, the final amounts recorded for the acquisition date fair values, including goodwill, may differ materially from the information presented.

The initial allocation of the preliminary consideration in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is based upon an estimated preliminary consideration of approximately $1.9 billion. This amount is based on approximately 19.7 million ordinary shares that Mallinckrodt issued to holders of Endo common stock in connection with the Business Combination, based on the number of shares of Endo common stock outstanding as of July 31, 2025, the number of Endo equity awards subject to acceleration upon change in control, the number of Endo equity awards settled in cash, and the Endo exchange ratio that resulted in 49.9% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Mallinckrodt as of immediately following the Business Combination being owned by former Endo shareholders.

Mallinckrodt is not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the automated quotation system of a national securities association, and as such, used a fair value per ordinary share equal to $90.50 per share as of July 31, 2025 in accordance with U.S. Internal Revenue Service Section 409A ("Section 409A") to determine preliminary fair value of consideration transferred. The preliminary consideration also includes the $100.0 million cash payment to former Endo shareholders and estimated fair value of replaced Endo equity awards relating to pre-acquisition vesting of the equity holders' requisite service periods. A 10% change in fair value per ordinary share would change the purchase price by approximately $177.8 million.

On August 28, 2023, the Company voluntarily initiated Chapter 11 proceedings ("2023 Chapter 11 Cases") under chapter 11 of title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the United States Code ("Bankruptcy Code") in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware ("Bankruptcy Court"). On September 20, 2023, the directors of the Company initiated examinership proceedings with respect to Mallinckrodt plc by presenting a petition to the High Court of Ireland pursuant to Section 510(1)(b) of the Companies Act 2014 seeking the appointment of an examiner to Mallinckrodt plc. On November 14, 2023 ("2023 Effective Date"), the Company emerged from the 2023 Chapter 11 Cases and the Irish examinership proceedings (together, the "2023 Bankruptcy Proceedings").

On October 12, 2020, the Company voluntarily initiated Chapter 11 proceedings ("2020 Chapter 11 Cases"). On March 2, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming a plan of reorganization ("2020 Plan"). On June 16, 2022 ("2020 Effective Date"), the Company emerged from the 2020 Chapter 11 Cases and the Irish examinership proceedings (together, the "2020 Bankruptcy Proceedings").

Upon emergence from both the 2020 Bankruptcy Proceedings on June 16, 2022 and the 2023 Bankruptcy Proceedings on November 14, 2023, the Company adopted fresh-start accounting in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 852, *Reorganizations* ("ASC 852"), and became a new entity for financial reporting purposes as of each of the 2020 Effective Date and the 2023 Effective Date. References to "Successor" in the pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the period from November 15, 2023 through December 29, 2023 relate to the results of operations of the reorganized Company subsequent to November 14, 2023, while references to "Predecessor" relate to the results of operations of the Company for the period from December 31, 2022 through November 14, 2023, the period from June 17, 2022 through December 30, 2022, and for the period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022.

The pro forma adjustments reflected in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information were based on available information and assumptions that Mallinckrodt believes are reasonable and supportable that reflect the effects of the transactions described in Note 1 and Note 3. The pro forma adjustments do not reflect future events that may occur after the Spin-off, including potential selling, general and administrative dis-synergies and the expected charges, the expected realization of any cost savings and other synergies, or the usage of the expected cash distribution to be received from Par Health in connection with the Spin-off. Further, the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information does not reflect restructuring or integration activities that have yet to be determined or other costs following the Business Combination that may be incurred to achieve cost or growth synergies of the combined company, including severance and retention bonus costs. As no assurance can be made that the costs will be incurred or the cost or growth synergies will be achieved, no adjustments have been made.

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information and underlying pro forma adjustments are based upon currently available information and include certain estimates and assumptions made by management; accordingly, actual results could differ materially from the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

**3.** **Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information of Mallinckrodt Reflecting the Other Transactions** 

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information of Mallinckrodt also give effect to the following Other Transactions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Mallinckrodt and Endo Business Combination*** *-* On July 31, 2025, the Company completed the Business Combination,
whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Endo in exchange for a combination of cash and
the Company's ordinary shares in accordance with the merger agreement entered into to effectuate a combination of the respective
companies (the "Merger Agreement"). Outstanding shares of common stock of Endo were cancelled and converted into the right
to receive 0.2575 of a Mallinckrodt ordinary share and approximately $1.31 in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding.

The Company acquired Endo by means of the merger of Salvare Merger Sub LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mallinckrodt, with and into Endo, with Endo continuing as the surviving entity in the merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mallinckrodt. On July 31, 2025, prior to the completion of the Business Combination, the memorandum and articles of association of the Company were amended by means of a scheme of arrangement (the "Scheme") under the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland (as amended) and certain other amendments that had been previously approved by the Company's shareholders (the "constitution amendment").

Mallinckrodt is the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. The Company accounted for the Business Combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805. This method requires the recording of acquired assets, including separately identifiable intangible assets at their fair value on the acquisition date. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

The determination of the estimated fair value of assets acquired requires management's judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, asset lives and market multiples, among other items. Fair values were determined by management, using a variety of methodologies and resources, including external independent valuation experts. The valuation methods consisted of physical appraisals, discounted cash flow analyses, excess earnings, relief from royalty, and other appropriate valuation techniques to determine the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As of the date of this filing, the valuation of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed remains ongoing and material adjustments may be made. The allocation of the merger consideration is preliminary, pending finalization of various estimates and analyses. Since the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared based on preliminary fair values, the final amounts recorded for the acquisition date fair values, including goodwill, may differ materially from the information presented.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Financing and Prepayment of Historical Mallinckrodt Indebtedness and Makewhole Premium*** - On July 31, 2025, in connection
with the consummation of the Business Combination, ST 2020, Inc. ("ST 2020"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mallinckrodt, and
MEH, Inc. (the "Borrower"), a wholly owned subsidiary of ST 2020, entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement")
with the lenders named therein, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and OPY Credit Corp.,
as trading agent, providing for $1,350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured credit facilities, comprising (i) a $1,200.0
million senior secured term loan facility ("Term Facility") and (ii) a $150.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility
("Revolving Facility" and together with the Term Facility, the "Facilities" or the "Financing"). MEH,
Inc. borrowed $1,200.0 million under the Term Facility on August 1, 2025. No amounts were drawn on the Revolving Facility. The Facilities
mature on July 31, 2030, unless extended pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.

The Term Facility will amortize in quarterly installments as follows: (i) commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025 through (and including) the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2026, 0.625% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Term Facility, (ii) from the last day of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2026 through (and including) the last day of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2027, 1.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Term Facility, (iii) from the last day of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2027 through (and including) the last day of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2028, 1.875% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Term Facility and (iv) from the last day of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2028 through the maturity date of the Term Facility, 2.50% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Term Facility, with the balance payable on the maturity date of the Term Facility.

The Company capitalized $28.3 million of certain third-party debt issuance costs in connection with executing the Credit Agreement. Approximately $26.8 million of the capitalized costs was attributed to the Term Facility and was recorded as a direct reduction of long-term debt on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. Approximately $1.5 million was attributed to the Revolving Facility and recorded within other assets on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. These capitalized costs will be amortized into interest expense over the five-year term of the Credit Agreement.

ST 2020, the Borrower and certain of their subsidiaries, all of which shall be members of the SpinCo Group, will remain liable for the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement upon the separation of Par Health from Mallinckrodt. Following separation of Par Health from Mallinckrodt, none of Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries shall be liable for the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement. Such indebtedness is given effect to in Note 3 and Note 4 of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 27, 2025 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 27, 2025 and the year ended December 27, 2024 to reflect the financing impact and subsequent impact of the separation for this financing to the Company.

On August 1, 2025, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries prepaid in full approximately $385.5 million in outstanding aggregate principal amount of the senior secured first lien "second-out" term loans (the "Second-Out Takeback Term Loans"), constituting all of the remaining indebtedness outstanding under the existing Mallinckrodt credit agreement, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as well as a payment of approximately $10.6 million in required makewhole premium and all amounts outstanding under Mallinckrodt's receivables financing facility due December 2027 (the "Existing ABL Facility") were repaid.

Also in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, on August 1, 2025, Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries redeemed in full approximately $477.2 million in outstanding principal amount of "second-out" 14.75% senior secured first lien notes due 2028 (the "Takeback Notes"), constituting all of the Takeback Notes outstanding under the existing Mallinckrodt indenture, for a redemption price equal to such outstanding principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and approximately $13.7 million in required makewhole premium. The prepayment of Mallinckrodt's historical debt instruments (the "Mallinckrodt Prepayment") is reflected in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information. The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information reflects a makewhole premium of $24.3 million as further discussed in Note 3(c).

As a result of such prepayment, redemption and repayment, the existing Mallinckrodt credit agreement and the existing ABL facility were terminated, the existing Mallinckrodt indenture was discharged and all guarantees of, and liens securing, the obligations thereunder were released.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Therakos Divestiture*** - On November 29, 2024, Mallinckrodt completed the divestiture of its Therakos business for total
cash consideration of $887.6 million, net of preliminary purchase price adjustments ("Initial Net Proceeds"). During
the fiscal year ended December 27, 2024, Mallinckrodt recorded a gain on sale of $754.4 million, comprised of the $887.6 million
of Initial Net Proceeds less the elimination of $125.5 million of net assets divested and $7.7 million in success-based professional
fees. Mallinckrodt recorded a loss on the divestiture and paid $6.2 million for the final working capital settlement during the six
months ended June 27, 2025. As a result, the total cash consideration was $881.4 million, net of the final working capital settlement.
Mallinckrodt was required to use the proceeds to make a $775.5 million mandatory prepayment on certain portions of its debt and $63.7
million in required makewhole premium. Refer to Note 3(d) for further information regarding Mallinckrodt's Therakos divestiture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***International Pharmaceuticals Business Divestiture*** - Prior to the Business Combination, on March 10, 2025, Endo
entered into a definitive agreement to divest its International Pharmaceuticals business to Knight Therapeutics Inc. The sale closed on
June 17, 2025 and Endo received net cash consideration of approximately $78.6 million, consisting of $89.9 million upfront,
less approximately $11.3 million related to certain permitted hold backs. As of September 26, 2025, Endo remains eligible to receive
up to an additional $9.4 million related to certain permitted hold backs and up to $15.0 million in potential future payments
contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Reorganization and Fresh-Start Accounting*** - On April 23, 2024, Endo's Predecessor's Plan of Reorganization
(the "Plan") became effective (the "Effective Date"). In accordance with the Plan on the Effective Date, Endo
acquired substantially all of the assets, as well as certain equity interests of and assumed certain liabilities of Endo's Predecessor.
In accordance with ASC 852, the provisions of fresh-start accounting were applied on the Effective Date and Endo became the Successor
entity for financial reporting purposes.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 27, 2025 and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 27, 2025 and for the year ended December 27, 2024 present reclassification adjustments to conform the financial statement presentation of historical balances of Mallinckrodt and Endo and the pro forma effects of the Business Combination, the Financing, and the Mallinckrodt Prepayment:

**3(a5)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, Endo presented $8.8 million of income tax receivables as its own line item. This balance is presented within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and offsets the previously noted reductions.

**3(a6)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, Mallinckrodt presented $5.5 million of finance lease assets within other assets. This balance is presented within plant, property, and equipment, net on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

In addition to the reclassifications shown above, Endo had $2.5 million in accounts payable related to sales and purchases of Amitiza that were generated by transactions with Mallinckrodt further discussed in Note 3(a2). These transactions are considered intercompany and eliminated for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

**3(a10)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, Endo presented $1.8 million of current portion of legal settlement as its own financial statement caption. This balance is presented within accrued and other current liabilities on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

This balance is presented within accrued and other current liabilities on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

**3(a13)** Accrued and other current liabilities on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet increased to $308.3 million. This is a result of the reclassifications of accrued and other current liabilities of $305.3 million further described in Note 3(a9), $1.8 million of current portion of legal settlement further described in Note 3(a10), and $11.7 million of income taxes payable further described in Note 3(a12), offset by $10.5 million of current operating lease liabilities further described in Note 3(a11).

This balance is presented within its own financial statement caption on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

**3(a16)** Other liabilities on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet decreased $35.5 million. This is a result of the net impact of the reclassifications of $42.1 million of non-current operating lease liabilities further described in Note 3(a15) and $6.6 million of long-term legal settlement accrual further described in Note 3(a14).

***Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 27, 2025***

On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, Endo presented $54.3 million of combination, integration and other related expense within SG&A. This activity is presented within combination, integration, and other related expenses on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a20)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, Endo presented $1.6 million in acquired in-process research and development, as separate financial statement captions. This activity is presented within research and development expenses on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a21)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, Endo presented $1.0 million in Asset impairment charges, as separate financial statement captions. This activity is presented within Non-restructuring impairment charges on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

***Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the year ended December 27, 2024***

The following conforming reclassification adjustments were made to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for analogous historical financial statement captions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On its historical consolidated statement of operations, Endo and Endo's Predecessor presented its net sales within a line item
"revenue, net". This activity is conformed as net sales on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On its historical consolidated statement of operations, Endo and Endo's Predecessor presented its cost of sales within a line
item "cost of revenues". This activity is conformed as cost of sales on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement
of operations.

The following reclassification adjustments were made to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations:

**3(a23)** On their historical consolidated statement of operations, Mallinckrodt and Endo reported activity that for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information are considered intercompany transactions. The elimination of these transactions related to sales and purchases of Amitiza resulted in a $2.9 million reduction to Mallinckrodt net sales and Endo's cost of sales.

**3(a24)** SG&A on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations increased by $10.6 million. On their historical consolidated statement of operations, Mallinckrodt and Endo reported activity that for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information are considered intercompany transactions. The elimination of these transactions resulted in a reduction of $9.4 million of Mallinckrodt SG&A. The reduction in SG&A represents a $6.4 million reversal of previously recognized customer bad debt expense. Mallinckrodt reversed the bad debt expense in the year ended December 27, 2024 as a result of the effectiveness of Endo's Predecessor's Plan. The remaining $3.0 million reduction to SG&A for Mallinckrodt relates to the sale of fixed assets to Endo, which are appropriately recorded within property, plant and equipment, net on Endo's historical consolidated balance sheet.

Additionally, on its historical consolidated statement of operations, Endo and Endo's Predecessor presented a combined $0.4 million and $0.8 million of litigation-related and other contingencies, net, and acquisition-related and integration items, net, respectively, as separate financial statement captions. This activity is presented within SG&A on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a25)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, Endo presented $2.6 million in acquired in-process research and development, as separate financial statement captions. This activity is presented within research and development expenses on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a26)** On its historical consolidated statement of operations, Endo and Endo's Predecessor presented a combined $245.7 million of asset impairment charges as its own financial statement caption. This activity is presented within non-restructuring impairment charges on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a27)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, Endo presented $2.7 million of interest income within interest expense, net. This activity is presented within interest income on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a28)** On its historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, Endo presented $27.6 million of a gain on sale of divestitures within other income, net. This activity is presented within gain on divestiture on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

**3(a29)** This adjustment represents the estimated income tax effects of $9.4 million of the intercompany eliminations described in Note 3(a24), calculated using a blended statutory rate. The blended statutory rate was calculated based on the statutory rates by jurisdiction in which the pro forma adjustment is expected to be recognized.

**3(b) Business Combination Preliminary Consideration**

The preliminary consideration is calculated as follows (amounts in millions except exchange ratio and share price):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Endo common stock outstanding as of July 31, 2025 | 76313462 |
| Endo common stock exchange ratio | 0.2575 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Mallinckrodt ordinary shares issued in exchange** | **19650663** |
| Mallinckrodt closing stock price <sup>(1)</sup> | $90.50 |
| Preliminary estimated fair value of Mallinckrodt ordinary shares issued | $1778.4 |
| Other cash consideration <sup>(2)</sup> | 0.0 |
| Payment to Endo shareholders | 100.0 |
| Other merger consideration attributable to Endo stock-based awards | 1.9 |
| Obligation to cash settle shares underlying certain Endo stock-based awards | 4.2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total estimated preliminary consideration (in millions)** | $**1884.5** |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Mallinckrodt is not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the automated quotation system of a national securities association, and as such, used a preliminary fair value per ordinary share as of July 31, 2025 in accordance with Section 409A to determine preliminary fair value of consideration transferred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Other cash consideration represents less than $0.1 million of aggregate cash payments to Endo stockholders in lieu of any fractional shares.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the fair value of the equity securities comprising the consideration were measured on July 31, 2025 upon completion of the Business Combination in accordance with Section 409A. An increase or decrease of 10% in the estimated fair value of Mallinckrodt ordinary shares assumed in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information would change the value of the preliminary consideration by approximately $177.8 million, which would be reflected as a corresponding increase or decrease to goodwill, respectively.

The table below reflects the Company's preliminary estimates of fair value of Endo's tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of June 27, 2025 (amounts in millions).

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Preliminary estimated fair value** |
| **Total estimated preliminary consideration** | $**1884.5** |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $363.2 |
| Restricted cash and cash equivalents | 93.1 |
| Accounts receivable, net | 411.2 |
| Inventories | 886.1 |
| Prepaid expenses and other current assets | 100.7 |
| Property, plant and equipment, net | 405.8 |
| Inventories, long-term | 501.9 |
| Operating lease assets | 37.2 |
| Intangible assets, net | 2215.0 |
| Deferred income taxes | 151.0 |
| Other assets | 18.1 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total Assets** | $**5183.3** |
| Current maturities of long-term debt | 15.0 |
| Accounts payable | 64.7 |
| Accrued payroll and payroll-related costs | 72.0 |
| Current portion of operating lease liabilities | 4.1 |
| Accrued interest | 18.2 |
| Accrued and other current liabilities | 311.6 |
| Long-term debt | 2545.0 |
| Operating lease liabilities | 33.7 |
| Other income tax liabilities | 145.5 |
| Other liabilities | 99.2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Net Assets** | $**1874.3** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Goodwill** | $**10.2** |

---

The Company's preliminary estimates of fair value are based on information currently available to the Company and remain subject to change. Since these pro forma financial statements have been prepared based on preliminary fair values, the final amounts recorded for the acquisition date fair values, including goodwill, may differ materially from the information presented.

**3(c) Business Combination, Financing, and Mallinckrodt Prepayment Pro Forma Adjustments**

***Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of June 27, 2025***

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 27, 2025 reflects the following adjustments:

**3(c1)** The pro forma adjustments to the cash balance are summarized as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Sources of Cash** | |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Proceeds from the Financing (Note 3(c8)) | $1200.0 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total sources of cash | $1200.0 |
| **Uses of Cash** |  |
| Prepayment of historical Mallinckrodt long-term debt (Note 3(c8)) | $863.6 |
| Makewhole premium due on paydown of historical Mallinckrodt long-term debt (Note 3(c8)) | 24.3 |
| Payment of debt issuance costs for the Financing (Note 3(c16)) | 39.6 |
| Payment of historical Mallinckrodt accrued interest | 15.2 |
| Payment to Endo shareholders (Note 3(b)) | 100.0 |
| Other cash consideration (Note 3(b)) | 0.0 |
| Payment of success fee for Mallinckrodt upon consummation of the Business Combination (Note 3(c22)) | 29.9 |
| Payment of success fee for Endo upon consummation of the Business Combination (Note 3(c22)) | 25.3 |
| Payment of other professional fees (Note 3(c22)) | 67.7 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total uses of cash | $1165.6 |
| **Total pro forma adjustments to cash** | $**34.4** |

---

The cash balance does not include working capital activity between June 27, 2025 and July 31, 2025.

**3(c2)** This adjustment represents the preliminary fair value adjustments of $446.4 million and $373.8 million to current and non-current inventory, respectively, which considers replacement cost for materials and net realizable value for work-in-process and finished goods. Mallinckrodt will recognize the increased value of inventory in cost of sales as the inventory is sold. For purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, it is assumed that the increased value of current inventory will be recognized in cost of sales the first year after the Business Combination, while the long-term inventory will be recognized in cost of sales within four years after the Business Combination.

**3(c3)** This adjustment represents the adjustment to property, plant and equipment, net to reflect the preliminary fair value and the corresponding depreciation expense. The amounts assigned to property, plant and equipment, the estimated useful lives, and the estimated depreciation expense related to the property, plant and equipment acquired are as follows (in millions):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Preliminary Fair<br> Value** | **Estimated<br> Weighted<br> Average Life<br> (Years)** | **Depreciation<br> Expense for the<br> year ended<br> December 27,<br> 2024** | **Depreciation<br> Expense for the<br> six months ended<br> June 27, 2025** |
| Land | $16.3 |  | $— | $— |
| Land Improvements | 12.1 | 10 | 1.2 | 0.6 |
| Buildings and improvements | 93.7 | 15 | 6.2 | 3.2 |
| Machinery and equipment | 90.5 | 5 | 18.1 | 9 |
| Computer equipment and software | 9.8 | 3 | 3.3 | 1.8 |
| Leasehold improvements | 18.1 | 10 | 1.8 | 1 |
| Furniture and Fixtures | 9.8 | 5 | 2 | 1 |
| Construction in process | 152.1 |  |  |  |
| Total Property, plant and equipment and depreciation expense at pro forma fair value | $402.3 |  | $32.6 | $16.6 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Endo historical Property, plant and equipment, net and pro forma depreciation expense (excluding finance lease right-of-use assets of $3.5 million) | $(536.3) |  | $(63.2) | $(27.2) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total pro forma adjustments to property, plant and equipment, net** | $**(134.0)** |  | $**(30.6)** | $**(10.6)** |

---

The depreciation expense was calculated using a weighted average useful life by category that represents the midpoint of the life range per the Company's policy. If the weighted average useful life were to change by one year, this would impact annual depreciation expense by approximately $4.7 million.

**3(c4)** This adjustment represents the preliminary fair value and resulting adjustment to intangible assets. The preliminary amounts assigned to the identifiable intangible assets, the estimated weighted average useful lives, and the estimated amortization expense related to these identifiable intangible assets are as follows (in millions):

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Preliminary Fair<br> Value** | **Estimated<br> Weighted<br> Average Life<br> (Years)** | **Amortization<br> Method** | **Amortization<br> Expense for the<br> year ended<br> December 27,<br> 2024** | **Amortization<br> Expense for the<br> six months ended<br> June 27, 2025** |
| Developed technology - Branded | $2113.0 | 12.0 | Straight Line | $176.1 | $88.0 |
| Developed Technology - Generics | 51.0 | 3.2 | Straight Line | 15.9 | 7.9 |
| Licenses – Generics | 34.0 | 3.0 | Straight Line | 11.3 | 5.6 |
| In-process research and development - Generics | 17.0 |  |  |  |  |
| Total pro forma intangible assets and amortization expense | $2215.0 |  |  | $203.3 | $101.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Endo historical Intangible assets, net and pro forma amortization expense | $(1646.7) |  |  | $(247.0) | $(124.4) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total pro forma adjustments to intangible assets, net and amortization expense** | $**568.3** |  |  | $**(43.7)** | $**(22.9)** |

---

The pro forma financial statements reflect the use of the straight-line method for amortizing acquired intangible assets; however, actual results may differ if management determines that an alternative method better reflects the pattern of economic benefit, which could materially affect amortization expense and net income. If the estimated weighted average useful lives changed by one year, this would impact annual amortization expense by approximately $20.2 million.

**3(c5)** The adjustment represents the preliminary goodwill as a result of the Business Combination. The preliminary pro forma adjustment to goodwill is calculated as follows (in millions):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Preliminary purchase price (Note 3(b)) | $1884.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Fair value of net assets to be acquired (Note 3(b)) | 1874.3 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total pro forma adjustment to goodwill** | $**10.2** |

---

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as described in Note 3(b). The goodwill will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment at least annually or whenever events or circumstances have occurred that may indicate a possible impairment exists. In the event Management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, Mallinckrodt will incur a non-cash impairment charge during the period in which the determination is made. The goodwill is attributable to the expected synergies of the combined business operations. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

**3(c6)** These adjustments represent estimated impacts to deferred income tax balances as shown below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Estimated impact of purchase price adjustments to deferred tax assets <sup>(1)</sup> | $(116.4) |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) This adjustment is included within deferred income tax asset on the unaudited pro forma balance sheet.

An evaluation of additional income tax adjustments will continue through the completion of acquisition accounting, which may result in material income tax adjustments.

**3(c7)** As described in Note 3(c8), the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information reflects certain adjustments to the fair value of Endo's existing debt instruments, which results in the elimination of Endo's existing debt issuance costs and debt discounts. This adjustment reflects the elimination of approximately $4.4 million of Endo's historical debt issuance costs that were recorded to other assets, offset by newly capitalized deferred financing fees of approximately $1.5 million attributed to the Revolving Facility.

**3(c8)** On July 31, 2025, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, ST 2020, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mallinckrodt, and MEH, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of ST 2020, entered into the Credit Agreement, providing for $1,350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured credit facilities, comprising (i) a $1,200.0 million Term Facility and (ii) a $150.0 million Revolving Facility. MEH, Inc borrowed $1,200.0 million under the Term Facility on August 1, 2025. No amounts were drawn on the Revolving Facility. The Facilities mature on July 31, 2030, unless extended pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.

On August 1, 2025, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries prepaid in full approximately $385.5 million in outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Second-Out Takeback Term Loans, constituting all of the remaining indebtedness outstanding under the existing Mallinckrodt credit agreement, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as well as a payment of approximately $10.6 million in required makewhole premium and all amounts outstanding under the Existing ABL Facility were repaid.

Also in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, on August 1, 2025, Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries redeemed in full approximately $477.2 million in outstanding principal amount of Takeback Notes, constituting all of the existing Mallinckrodt notes outstanding under the existing Mallinckrodt indenture, for a redemption price equal to such outstanding principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and approximately $13.7 million in required makewhole premium.

As a result of such prepayment, redemption and repayment, the existing Mallinckrodt credit agreement and the existing ABL facility were terminated, the existing Mallinckrodt indenture was discharged and all guarantees of, and liens securing, the obligations thereunder were released.

The prepayment amounts shown in the table below illustrate the prepayment of the balances as shown on Mallinckrodt's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 27, 2025. As a result of the prepayment of Mallinckrodt's historical debt, the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information also eliminates all of Mallinckrodt existing debt premiums. The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information also reflects the adjustments to fair value of Endo's existing debt instruments, which results in the elimination of Endo's existing debt issuance costs and debt discounts.

The pro forma adjustments to debt are summarized as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Current maturities of long-term debt** |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;New debt financing | $22.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prepayment of historical Mallinckrodt term loan | (3.9) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Net pro forma adjustment to current maturities of long-term debt** | $**18.6** |
| **Long-term debt** |  |
| New debt financing | $1177.5 |
| Prepayment of historical Mallinckrodt term loan | (382.5) |
| Prepayment of historical Mallinckrodt notes | (477.2) |
| Write off of historical Mallinckrodt term loan unamortized debt premium | (19.0) |
| Write off of historical Mallinckrodt notes unamortized debt premium | (24.5) |
| Write off of historical Mallinckrodt receivables securitization facility deferred financing fee | 1.8 |
| New debt issuance costs classified as reduction to liability | (26.8) |
| Fair value adjustment of Endo historical debt from purchase price allocation | 126.2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Net adjustment to long-term debt** | $**375.5** |
| **Total pro forma adjustments to debt** | $**394.1** |

---

**3(c9)** Accrued payroll and payroll-related costs increased $117.7 million. This adjustment also includes an $8.8 million increase to Endo's retention program that became payable upon consummation of the transaction. Additionally, this adjustment represents $108.9 million of compensation expenses related to Mallinckrodt's Transaction Incentive Plan ("TrIP"), which became payable upon consummation of the Business Combination and the acceleration of the service period component of the TrIP earned from Mallinckrodt's sale of its Therakos business. Since the consummation of the Business Combination is a significant qualifying event as defined by the TrIP, the deferred component of the TrIP earned for the Therakos transaction became payable upon consummation of the Business Combination. Mallinckrodt accrued $6.1 million within accrued payroll and payroll-related costs in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 27, 2025.

**3(c10)** This adjustment represents a $13.7 million net impact on the historical accrued interest expense related to the Financing as described in Note 3(c8).

**3(c11)** Accrued and other current liabilities on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet increased $3.8 million. This adjustment also includes $24.0 million of accrued professional fees due after close of the transaction. This adjustment also includes $4.2 million of cash due to Endo non-employee directors in accordance with the Merger Agreement and $9.1 million related to a Medicare Part D inflation rebate liability, offset by $16.3 million of previously accrued professional fees for Endo and $17.2 million of previously accrued professional fees for Mallinckrodt that were settled in cash upon consummation of the transaction.

**3(c12)** These adjustments represent estimated impacts to deferred income tax balances as shown below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Estimated impact of purchase price adjustments to deferred tax liabilities <sup>(1)</sup> | $106.9 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) This adjustment is included within other income tax liabilities on the unaudited pro forma balance sheet.

An evaluation of additional income tax adjustments will continue through the completion of acquisition accounting, which may result in material income tax adjustments.

**3(c13)** This adjustment represents a $19.9 million increase in value of acquired contingent consideration liabilities and legal liabilities. In 2015, Endo acquired Auxilium, which was a party to an agreement pursuant to which it was obligated to make certain contingent cash consideration payments, related primarily to sales-based royalties on Edex. The agreement calls for sales-based royalty payments to continue indefinitely until pre-determined market conditions are met. As a result of the Business Combination, the Company assumed the obligation. The acquisition date fair value was estimated based on a discounted cash flow model (income approach) and resulted in a $17.1 million increase in value. The remaining adjustment of $1.8 million relates to a fair value adjustment to an assumed legal liability.

**3(c14)** This adjustment represents the elimination of Endo's historical equity-related balances, the issuance of approximately 19.7 million of Mallinckrodt ordinary shares, $7.3 million of incremental share-based compensation expense, net of tax, related to the accelerated vesting of share-based awards of three departing non-employee directors of Mallinckrodt upon consummation of the Business Combination, and a $100.0 million cash payment (premium) to Endo's shareholders. Refer to Note 3(b) for additional information.

The unaudited pro forma adjustment to Mallinckrodt's ordinary shares is calculated as follows (in millions):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Ordinary shares issued in the Business Combination (Note 3(b)) | $0.2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Endo's historical common stock | (0.1) |
| **Total pro forma adjustment to ordinary shares** | $**0.1** |

---

The unaudited pro forma adjustment to Additional Paid-in-Capital is calculated as follows (in millions):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Additional paid in capital from the Business Combination | $1782.8 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Endo's historical additional paid in capital | (1990.3) |
| **Total pro forma adjustment to additional paid in capital** | $**(207.5)** |

---

The unaudited pro forma adjustment to retained earnings represents the remaining impact of the adjustments described in Notes 3(c1) through 3(c14).

***Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 27, 2025***

**3(c15)** Cost of sales decreased $88.9 million. This is the result of decreases in inventory step up amortization expense of $55.4 million further described in Note 3(c2), intangible asset amortization expense of $22.9 million further described in Note 3(c4), and depreciation expense of $10.6 million further described in Note 3(c3). With respect to intangible asset amortization and depreciation expense, the decreases are driven by lower fair value estimates of the corresponding assets compared to previously recorded book values.

**3(c16)** This adjustment represents $1.3 million of incremental non-cash share-based compensation expense, net of tax, related to Endo share-based awards that were replaced by the Company's awards in connection with the Business Combination.

**3(c17)** This adjustment represents the net increase in interest expense of $13.1 million. This adjustment is comprised of $66.8 million in estimated coupon interest expense together with approximately $2.8 million related to the amortization of deferred financing fees related to the Financing and $4.8 million of amortization of the fair value premium on the legacy Endo notes and term loans, partially offset by a reduction of $56.9 million in Mallinckrodt's historical interest expense and a $4.4 million reduction in Endo's historical interest expense related to amortization of deferred financing fees. The interest expense calculated for the Financing was calculated assuming $1,200.0 million of principal balance as described in Note 3(c8).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the $1,200.0 million of new term loans under the Term Facility, the interest rate is SOFR + 7.00%, which was approximately 11.47%
for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information. For every 0.125% difference in interest rate, this would impact interest
expense for the six months ended June 27, 2025 by approximately $0.8 million for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the undrawn Revolving Credit Facility, a commitment fee was calculated at a rate of approximately 0.25% as required per the Credit
Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financing fees related to the Financing were estimated to be approximately $39.6 million, of which $26.8 million are treated as a
reduction to the outstanding debt principal balance. The prepayment of Mallinckrodt's historical debt and incurrence of the Financing
is being accounted for as an extinguishment based on information known at the time of this filing. The interest expense in the pro forma
statement of operations reflects the deferred fees being amortized over the respective instrument maturities of five years, utilizing
the effective interest rate method. The remaining $12.8 million of financing fees were recorded within gain on debt extinguishment in
the unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 27, 2024.

**3(c18)** This adjustment represents the estimated income tax effects of the Business Combination, the Financing and the Mallinckrodt Prepayment, and purchase price allocation impacts as described in Notes 3(c15) through 3(c17), calculated using a blended statutory rate. The blended statutory rate was calculated based on the statutory rates by jurisdiction in which the respective pro forma adjustment is expected to be recognized and was impacted by valuation allowances and statutory limitations on tax deductibility for certain adjustments.

**3(c19)** The following tables summarize pro forma ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

Mallinckrodt ordinary shares outstanding – basic 19,736,759 <br> Endo pro forma converted common shares outstanding – basic   <u>19,650,663</u> <br> Mallinckrodt pro forma ordinary shares outstanding – basic   <u>39,387,422</u>

A net loss cannot be diluted. When a company is in a net loss position, basic and diluted loss per share are the same. The computation of pro forma diluted weighted-average shares outstanding excluded approximately 1.7 million shares of contingent value rights held by the Opioid Master Disbursement Trust II ("Opioid CVRs") and outstanding equity awards because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. If Mallinckrodt records net income in the future, the denominator of a diluted earnings per share calculation will include both the weighted average number of shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents, if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive.

***Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the year ended December 27, 2024***

**3(c20)** Cost of sales decreased $158.0 million. This is the result decreases in intangible asset amortization expense of $43.7 million further described in Note 3(c4), inventory step up amortization expense of $83.7 million further described in Note 3(c2), and fixed asset depreciation expense of $30.6 million further described in Note 3(c3). With respect to intangible asset amortization and depreciation expense, the decreases are driven by lower fair value estimates of the corresponding assets compared to previously recorded book values.

**3(c21)** This adjustment represents $143.9 million of compensation expenses related to the Business Combination. $108.9 million is related to Mallinckrodt's TrIP, which became payable upon consummation of the Business Combination and the acceleration of the service period component of the TrIP earned from Mallinckrodt's sale of its Therakos business. Since the consummation of the Business Combination is a significant qualifying event as defined by the TrIP, the deferred component of the TrIP earned for the Therakos transaction accelerated as it became payable upon consummation of the Business Combination.

Additionally, this represents $32.4 million of expense, net of tax, related to estimated cash payments to Endo employees for retention and incremental non-cash share-based compensation expense related to Endo share-based awards that were replaced by the Company's awards in connection with the Business Combination. This also includes $2.6 million of expense, net of tax, related to the accelerated vesting of share-based awards of departing non-employee directors of Mallinckrodt upon consummation of the Business Combination. The compensation expenses related to Mallinckrodt's TrIP, and retention are non-recurring and not expected to have a continuing impact on Mallinckrodt's operating results in future periods.

**3(c22)** This adjustment represents $113.4 million of professional fees related to the Business Combination. $55.2 million are success-based professional fees that were incremental direct costs payable by Mallinckrodt and Endo upon completion of the Business Combination. The success-based professional fees are shown as a use of cash in the pro forma balance sheet and reflected as a non-recurring expense in the pro forma statement of operations. This adjustment also includes $58.2 million of incremental professional fees that were incurred separately by Mallinckrodt and Endo prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination. The unpaid portion of these costs are accrued in the pro forma balance sheet and reflected within combination and other related expenses on the pro forma statement of operations, further described in Note 3(c11). These professional fees are non-recurring and not expected to have a continuing impact on Mallinckrodt's operating results in future periods.

**3(c23)** This adjustment represents the net decrease in interest expense of $58.9 million, related to the prepayment of historical Mallinckrodt indebtedness and incurrence of the Financing as illustrated in Note 3(c1), as if the prepayment occurred on December 30, 2023. The net adjustment is comprised of a reduction of $210.2 million in Mallinckrodt's historical interest expense and $10.2 million in Endo's historical interest expense related to deferred financing fee amortization, partially offset by $146.6 million in estimated coupon interest expense under the Financing, $5.1 million related to amortization of deferred financing fees related to the Financing and $9.8 million of amortization of the premium on legacy Endo's term loans and notes. The interest expense calculated for the Financing was calculated assuming $1,200.0 million as described in Note 3(c8).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the $1,200.0 million of new term loans under the Term Facility, the interest rate is SOFR + 7.00%, which was approximately 12.34%
for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information. For every 0.125% difference in interest rate, this would impact annual
interest expense by approximately $1.5 million. for purposes of the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the undrawn Revolving Facility, a commitment fee was calculated at a rate of approximately 0.25% as required per the Credit Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financing fees related to the Financing were estimated to be approximately $39.6 million, of which $26.8 million are treated as a
reduction to the outstanding debt principal balance. The prepayment of Mallinckrodt's historical debt and incurrence of the Financing
accounted for as an extinguishment based on information known at the time of this filing. The interest expense in the pro forma statement
of operations reflects the deferred fees being amortized over the respective instrument maturities of five years, utilizing the effective
interest rate method. The remaining $12.8 million of financing fees were recorded to gain on debt extinguishment in the unaudited pro
forma statement of operations.

**3(c24)** This adjustment represents a $14.4 million gain on extinguishment of debt, comprised of an approximately $50.0 million gain to write-off certain unamortized premiums related to Mallinckrodt's historical indebtedness, partially offset by an approximately $24.3 million payment of the makewhole premium and $12.8 million of financing fees that did not qualify as debt issuance costs. The gain on extinguishment of debt is non-recurring and not expected to have a continuing impact on Mallinckrodt's operating results in future periods.

**3(c25)** This adjustment represents the estimated income tax effects of the Business Combination, the Financing and the Mallinckrodt Prepayment, and purchase price allocation impacts as described in Notes 3(c20) through 3(c24), calculated using a blended statutory rate. The blended statutory rate was calculated based on the statutory rates by jurisdiction in which the respective pro forma adjustment is expected to be recognized and was impacted by valuation allowances and statutory limitations on tax deductibility for certain adjustments.

**3(c26)** The following tables summarize pro forma ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

Mallinckrodt ordinary shares outstanding - basic 19,736,759 <br> Endo pro forma converted common shares outstanding - basic   <u>19,650,663</u> <br> Mallinckrodt pro forma ordinary shares outstanding - basic   <u>39,387,422</u>

A net loss cannot be diluted. When a company is in a net loss position, basic and diluted loss per share are the same. The computation of pro forma diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the year ended December 27, 2024 excluded approximately 1.7 million shares of Opioid CVRs and equity awards because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. If Mallinckrodt records net income in the future, the denominator of a diluted earnings per share calculation will include both the weighted average number of shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents, if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive.

**3(d) Therakos Divestiture**

On August 3, 2024, Mallinckrodt entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement for Mallinckrodt's Therakos business for a base purchase price of $925.0 million. On November 29, 2024, Mallinckrodt completed the divestiture of its Therakos business for total cash consideration of $887.6 million, net of preliminary purchase price adjustments. During the year ended December 27, 2024, Mallinckrodt recorded a non-recurring gain on sale of $754.4 million, comprised of the $887.6 million of Initial Net Proceeds less the elimination of $125.5 million of net assets divested and $7.7 million in non-recurring success-based professional fees. Mallinckrodt recorded a loss on the divestiture and paid $6.2 million for the final working capital settlement during the six months ended June 27, 2025. As a result, the total cash consideration was $881.4 million, net of the final working capital settlement. Mallinckrodt was required to use the proceeds to make a mandatory prepayment on certain portions of its debt.

On December 6, 2024, Mallinckrodt (i) mandatorily prepaid a portion of its historical term loans in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $474.1 million (of which approximately $227.1 million consisted of its senior secured first lien "first-out" term loans ("First-Out Takeback Term Loans") and approximately $247.0 million consisted of its Second-Out Takeback Term Loans) together with a payment of approximately $36.4 million in required makewhole premium (of which approximately $15.2 million was in respect of its First-Out Takeback Term Loans and approximately $21.2 million was in respect of its Second-Out Takeback Term Loans) and (ii) mandatorily redeemed $301.4 million in aggregate principal amount of its Takeback Notes together with a payment of approximately $27.3 million in required makewhole premium.

As a result of the mandatory prepayment, Mallinckrodt recorded $19.7 million as a net loss on extinguishment of debt, comprised of the $63.7 million payment of the makewhole premium, offset by a $44.0 million gain to write-off certain unamortized premiums.

The Therakos divestiture is reflected in the historical financial information of Mallinckrodt, but adjustments are required to eliminate the results of the Therakos business from the historical Mallinckrodt amounts, as shown in the following table:

***Mallinckrodt plc Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statement of Operations for the year ended December 27, 2024***

The unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations for the year ended December 27, 2024 reflect the following adjustments:

**3(d1)** This adjustment represents the elimination of the revenues, and direct operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense, associated with the Therakos divestiture.

**3(d2)** This adjustment represents the removal of interest expense of $91.0 million, as if the pay down of debt occurred on December 30, 2023.

**3(d3)** This adjustment primarily represents $8.2 million of income related to Mallinckrodt's transition services agreement ("TSA"), as if the TSA commenced on December 30, 2023. The TSA was effective upon closing of the Therakos divestiture to provide certain business support services for up to 18 months after the closing date. These services include, but are not limited to, information technology, procurement, distribution, logistics and order to delivery, compliance, accounting, finance, and administrative activities. The remaining activity reflects the elimination of non-operating expenses associated with the Therakos divestiture.

**3(d4)** This adjustment represents the estimated income tax effects of the Therakos divestiture described in Note 3(d1), calculated using a blended statutory rate. The blended statutory rate was calculated based on the statutory rates by jurisdiction in which the respective pro forma adjustment is expected to be recognized and was impacted by valuation allowances and statutory limitations on tax deductibility for certain adjustments.

**3(e) Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements of Endo and Endo's Predecessor**

The unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements of Endo and Endo's Predecessor give effect to the following transactions:

***International Pharmaceuticals Divestiture***

On March 11, 2025, Endo announced it had entered into a definitive agreement to divest its International Pharmaceuticals business, primarily operated through Canada-based specialty pharmaceutical company Paladin Pharma Inc., to Knight Therapeutics Inc. The sale closed on June 17, 2025 and Endo received net cash consideration of approximately $78.6 million, consisting of $89.9 million upfront, less approximately $11.3 million related to certain permitted hold backs. As of September 26, 2025, Endo remains eligible to receive up to an additional $9.4 million related to certain permitted hold backs and up to $15.0 million in potential future payments contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones.

The results of the International Pharmaceuticals business are reflected in the historical financial information of Endo and Endo's Predecessor, but as it was not acquired by Mallinckrodt as part of the Business Combination, an adjustment is required to eliminate the results of the International Pharmaceutical business from the historical Endo amounts.

***Endo Chapter 11 Restructuring***

Prior to the Effective Date, Endo's business was operated by Endo's Predecessor. On August 16, 2022 (the "Petition Date"), Endo International plc, together with certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (the "Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States ("U.S.") Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). The Debtors received approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") to jointly administer their chapter 11 cases (the "Chapter 11 Cases") for administrative purposes only pursuant to Rule 1015(b) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure under the caption *In re: Endo International plc, et al*.

On December 19, 2023, the Debtors filed the Plan and related disclosure statement with the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan on March 19, 2024, and the Debtors satisfied all conditions required for the Plan effectiveness on the Effective Date.

***Adoption of Fresh-Start Accounting***

Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, Endo, Inc. purchased substantially all of the assets, as well as certain equity interests of the Debtors and non-debtor affiliates and assumed certain liabilities of Endo's Predecessor. In accordance with ASC 852, fresh-start accounting was applied on the Effective Date because (i) the holders of existing Endo International plc voting shares received less than 50% of the voting shares of Endo, Inc., and (ii) the reorganization value of assets, which approximated $5.0 billion, immediately prior to the confirmation of the Plan was less than the corresponding total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims, which approximated $11.8 billion. Applying fresh-start accounting resulted in a new reporting entity with no beginning retained earnings or accumulated deficit. Accordingly, Endo's financial statements are not comparable to the financial statements of Endo's Predecessor prior to the Effective Date.

Fresh-start accounting required that the reorganization value be assigned to Endo, Inc.'s identified tangible and intangible assets based on their respective fair values, as determined in conformity with ASC 805, with any excess recorded as goodwill, if applicable; post-petition liabilities have generally been assumed by Endo, Inc. at their historical carrying values; Exit Financing Debt liabilities are measured and recorded by Endo, Inc. at their fair values; The amount of deferred taxes was determined in accordance with ASC Topic 740, *Income Taxes* ("ASC 740") and ASC 852, and historical accumulated deficit and accumulated other comprehensive loss of Endo International plc was reset to zero by Endo, Inc. As applicable, Endo International plc's liabilities subject to compromise and certain other liabilities were satisfied in accordance with the Plan's terms. The Effective Date fair values of Endo's assets and liabilities differed materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historic balance sheets of Endo's Predecessor.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 reflect the following adjustments:

**3(e2)** This adjustment represents the elimination of the revenues, direct operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense, and other non-operating income, associated with the International Pharmaceuticals business divestiture, offset by the inclusion of the pre-tax gain of approximately $20.4 million further described in Note 3(e1), as if the divestiture occurred at the beginning of 2024.

**3(e3)** This adjustment represents the income tax effects of the International Pharmaceuticals business divestiture, described in Note 3(e), including a $7.7 million tax benefit reversal associated with Endo's Canadian affiliate and a $3.6 million adjustment associated with Endo's Irish affiliate's pre-tax income. The blended statutory rate was calculated based on the statutory rates by jurisdiction in which the pro forma adjustment is expected to be recognized.

***Endo, Inc. Unaudited Successor and Predecessor Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024***

The unaudited Successor and Predecessor pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 reflect the following adjustments:

**3(e4)** The adjustment to cost of sales reflects the change in inventory step-up amortization, fixed asset depreciation, and intangible amortization expense based on new asset values as a result of adopting fresh-start accounting, as if the fresh-start accounting was applied on January 1, 2024. The adjustment to SG&A is specific to incremental fixed asset depreciation based on new asset value as a result of adopting fresh-start accounting, as if fresh-start accounting was applied as of January 1, 2024.

**3(e5)** This adjustment reflects the interest expense for Endo's Exit Financing as if the financing transactions occurred on January 1, 2024.

**3(e6)** This adjustment represents the elimination of reorganization items that were directly attributable to Endo's Predecessor's bankruptcy, which is assumed to have applied fresh-start accounting as of January 1, 2024. Endo's Successor entity did not adopt ASC 852, and therefore is assumed to have not recognized reorganization items in 2024. Endo's Predecessor's reorganization items, net were comprised of the following:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Predecessor** |
|  | **Period From January 1, 2024<br> through April 23, 2024** |
| Professional Fees | $68.1 |
| Debt valuation adjustments<sup>(1)</sup> | 192.3 |
| Reorganization Adjustments | (5996.0) |
| Fresh-Start Adjustments | (389.5) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total reorganization items, net** | $**(6125.1)** |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(1)** For the period January 1, 2024 through April 23, 2024, adequate protection payments were $192.3 million and recognized as a reduction to the carrying amount of the respective Predecessor First Lien Debt Instruments. Concurrently, as a result of adjusting to the estimated allowed claim amount for the corresponding debt instruments, a charge was recognized within Reorganization items, net. For the year ended December 31, 2023, adequate protection payments were $592.8 million. In December 2023, the Plan and related disclosure statement were filed with the Bankruptcy Court, which included for the first time, among other things, the estimated allowed claims with respect to outstanding debt obligations.
