The Notes were issued in two series: (x)$50 million of SeriesA-1 Notes, issued to the Plan to former holders of First Lien Secured Notes Claims (as defined below) and which will be subject to an interest holiday from the Effective Date through November1, 2019 and (y)$45 million of SeriesA-2 Notes, issued to Iroko and certain of its affiliates and which are subject to the rights of set-off and recoupment and related provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The obligations of the Company under the Indenture and the Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a secured basis by the Guarantors.

Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 13% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on May1st and November1st of each year (each, a Payment Date) commencing on May1, 2019 (subject to the interest holiday referred to above with respect to the SeriesA-1 Notes). On each Payment Date, the Company will also pay an installment of principal on the Notes in an amount equal to 15% of the aggregate net sales of OXAYDO (oxycodone HCI, USP) tablets for oral use only CII, SPRIX (ketorolac tromethamine) Nasal Spray, ARYMO ER, Egalet-002, VIVLODEX, TIVORBEX, ZORVOLEXand INDOCIN (indomethacin) oral suspension and suppositories (collectively, the Products) for the two consecutive fiscal quarter period most recently ended, less the amount of interest paid on the Notes on such Payment Date.

The Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and will be equal in right of payment to all existing and future pari passu indebtedness of the Company, will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness of the Company, will have the benefit of a security interest in the Notes collateral and

will be junior in lien priority in respect of any collateral that secures any first priority lien obligations incurred from time to time in accordance with the Indenture. The stated maturity date of the Notes is January31, 2024. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, subject to certain conditions, or certain Asset Sales events (each, as defined in the Indenture), holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101.00% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part from time to time, prior to January31, 2020, at a redemption price equal to 100.00% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium computed using a discount rate equal to the treasury rate in respect of such redemption date plus 100 basis points. The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part from time to time, on or after January31, 2020, at a redemption price equal to: (i)from and including January31, 2020 to and including January30, 2021, 103.00% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii)from and including January31, 2021 and thereafter, 100.00% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. In addition, prior to January31, 2020, the Company may redeem, at its option, up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of one or more public or private equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 113.50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption in accordance with the Indenture; provided that at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after each such redemption and provided further that each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such equity offering. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes, which means that the Company is not required to periodically redeem or retire the Notes.

to the Indenture, the Company and its restricted subsidiaries must also comply with certain affirmative covenants, such as furnishing financial statements to the holders of the Notes, and negative covenants, including limitations on the following: the incurrence of debt; the issuance of preferred and/or disqualified stock; the payment of dividends, the repurchase of shares and under certain conditions making certain other restricted payments; the prepayment, redemption or repurchase of subordinated debt; the merger, amalgamation or consolidation involving the Company; engaging in certain transactions with affiliates; and the making of investments other than those permitted by the Indenture. In addition, commencing December31, 2019, the Company must maintain a minimum level of consolidated liquidity, based on unrestricted cash on hand and availability under any revolving credit facility, equal to the greater of (1)the quotient of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes divided by 9.5 and (2)$7,500,000.

The Indenture governing the Notes contains customary events of default with respect to the Notes (including the Companys failure to make any payment of principal or interest on the Notes when due and payable or the Companys failure to comply with the minimum consolidated liquidity covenant described above), and upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may (subject to the provisions of the Indenture) declare 50% of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration of acceleration, such principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as well as the then-applicable optional redemption premium under the Indenture, will be due and payable immediately. In the case of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture), the Notes will automatically become due and payable. With respect to any event of default due to the Companys non-compliance with the minimum liquidity covenant, the Company may, within ten business days, cure such default through the issuance of equity securities, subordinated debt securities or certain other capital contributions.
