percent (100%). Immediately upon the effectiveness of any State-Subdivision Agreement, 
Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed by Section V.D.3 (or upon 
the effectiveness of an amendment to any State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, 
Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed by Section V.D.3) that addresses allocation 
from the Subdivision Fund, whether before or after the Initial Participation Date, Exhibit G will 
automatically be amended to reflect the allocation from the Subdivision Fund pursuant to the State-
Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed 
by Section V.D.3. The Subdivision Allocation Percentages contained in Exhibit G may not change 
once notice is distributed pursuant to Section VII.A, except upon the effectiveness of any State-
Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed 
by Section V.D.3 (or upon the effectiveness of an amendment to any State-Subdivision Agreement, 
Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed by Section V.D.3) that

II. 
Participation by Eligible States and Condition to Preliminary Agreement  
A. 
Notice to Eligible States. On May 26, 2025, this Agreement shall be distributed to 
all Eligible States. The Attorneys General of the Eligible States shall then have until June 25, 2025, 
to decide whether to become Settling States and notify Amneal of that decision. Eligible States 
that determine to become Settling States shall so notify Amneal and shall further commit to 
obtaining any necessary additional state releases prior to the Reference Date. This notice period 
may be extended by written agreement of Amneal and the Enforcement Committee.   
B. 
Condition to Preliminary Agreement. Following the notice period set forth in 
Section II.A, Amneal shall have fourteen (14) calendar days to determine whether, in its sole 
discretion (based on any criteria or factors deemed relevant to Amneal), enough Eligible States 
have agreed to become Settling States to proceed with notice to Subdivisions as set forth in Section

15 
 
 
 
VII. This period may be extended by written agreement of Amneal and the Enforcement 
Committee. If Amneal determines that this condition has been satisfied, and that notice to the 
Subdivisions should proceed, it will so notify the Settling States by providing notice to the 
Enforcement Committee. The date of such notice shall be the Preliminary Agreement Date. If 
Amneal determines that this condition has not been satisfied, this Agreement will have no further 
effect and all releases and other commitments or obligations contained herein will be void. 
C. 
Later Joinder by Eligible States. After the Preliminary Agreement Date, an Eligible 
State may only become a Settling State with the consent of Amneal and the Enforcement 
Committee, provided that the Enforcement Committee may not withhold consent to an Eligible 
State’s later joinder if the Eligible State agrees to join pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and 
the allocation set forth on Exhibit F. If an Eligible State becomes a Settling State more than  thirty 
(30) calendar days after the Preliminary Agreement Date, but on or before the Reference Date, the 
Subdivisions in that Eligible State that become Participating Subdivisions within ninety (90) 
calendar days of the Eligible State becoming a Settling State shall be considered Initial 
Participating Subdivisions. An Eligible State may not become a Settling State after the Reference 
Date.  
D. 
Litigation Activity. Following the Preliminary Agreement Date, Eligible States that 
determine to become Settling States shall make reasonable efforts to cease litigation activity 
against Amneal, including by jointly seeking stays or, where appropriate, severance of claim 
against Amneal, where feasible, and otherwise to minimize such activity by means of agreed 
deadline extensions and agreed postponement of depositions, document productions, and motion 
practice if a motion to stay or sever is not feasible or is denied. 
III. 
 Injunctive Relief 
A. 
Injunctive Relief. As part of the Consent Judgment, the Parties agree to the entry of 
the injunctive relief terms attached in Exhibit P. 
 
IV. 
Settlement Payments 
A. 
Settlement Fund. All payments under this Section IV shall be made into the 
Settlement Fund, except that, where specified, they shall be made into the Settlement Fund Escrow. 
The Settlement Fund shall be allocated and used only as specified in Section V. 
B. 
Annual Remediation Payments  
1. 
Amneal shall make ten (10) Annual Remediation Payments, each comprised of 
Base Payments and Incentive Payments as provided in this Section IV and as determined by 
the Settlement Fund Administrator as set forth in this Agreement, provided that the Annual 
Remediation Payment in Payment Year 1 shall consist solely of Base Payments.  The payment 
schedule for the Annual Remediation Payments is attached hereto as Exhibit M-2.

16 
 
 
 
2. 
In no instance shall Amneal’s Annual Remediation Payment obligation exceed the 
Annual Remediation Maximum, reduced for Non-Settling States, except as specified in the 
definition of “Annual Remediation Maximum” for Payment Years 3, 4, and 10. In no instance 
shall the sum of Amneal’s Annual Remediation Payment obligations for Payment Years 1-10 
exceed the sum of Amneal’s Annual Remediation Maximums for Payment Years 1-10, 
reduced for Non-Settling States. 
C. 
Settlement Fund Payment Process  
1. 
To determine each Annual Remediation Payment for Payment Year 2 and forward, 
the Settlement Fund Administrator shall use the data as of sixty (60) days prior to the Payment 
Date for each payment, unless another provision of the Agreement specifies a different date. 
Prior to the Effective Date, the Parties will include Exhibit L, which sets forth in detail the 
process for the Settlement Fund Administrator to obtain relevant data and for distributing 
funds to the Settling States and their Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G consistent 
with the terms of this Agreement as quickly as practical.   
2. 
The Settlement Fund Administrator shall determine the Annual Remediation 
Payment and the Statewide Payment Amount for each Settling State, consistent with the 
provisions in Exhibit L, by: 
a. 
Determining, for each Settling State, the Base Payment amount and 
Incentive Payment amount to which the Settling State is entitled by applying the 
criteria under Section IV.F, Section IV.G, and Section IV.H; 
b. 
applying any offsets as specified under Section XII 
c. 
determining the total amount owed by Amneal to all Settling States 
and the Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G; and 
d. 
the Settlement Fund Administrator shall then allocate, after 
subtracting the portion of any Settlement Fund Administrator costs and fees owed 
out of funds from the Settlement Fund pursuant to Section V.C.5, the Annual 
Remediation Payment pursuant to Section V among the Settling States, among the 
separate types of funds for each Settling State (if applicable), and among the 
Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G. 
3. 
If, no later than fifty (50) days prior to the Payment Date, Amneal and the 
Enforcement Committee inform the Settlement Fund Administrator that they agree on the 
amount of the Annual Remediation Payment and the Statewide Payment Amount for each 
Settling State, Amneal shall pay the agreed-upon Annual Remediation Payment amount on 
the Payment Date and the Settlement Fund Administrator shall treat those amounts as the 
determination described in Section IV.C.2. If the Settlement Fund Administrator is not so 
informed, it shall give notice to Amneal, the Settling States, and the Enforcement Committee 
of the amount of the Annual Remediation Payment, and the Statewide Payment Amount for

17 
 
 
 
each Settling State, following the determination described in Section IV.C.2, and the 
following timeline shall apply: 
a. 
Within twenty-one (21) calendar days of the notice provided by the 
Settlement Fund Administrator, Amneal, any Settling State or the Enforcement 
Committee may dispute, in writing, the calculation of the Annual Remediation 
Payment or the Statewide Payment Amount for a Settling State. Such disputing 
party must provide a written notice of dispute to the Settlement Fund Administrator, 
the Enforcement Committee, any affected Settling State, and Amneal identifying 
the nature of the dispute, the amount of money that is disputed, and the Settling 
State(s) affected. 
b. 
Within twenty-one (21) calendar days of the sending of a written 
notice of dispute, any affected party may submit a response, in writing, to the 
Settlement Fund Administrator, the Enforcement Committee, any affected Settling 
State, and Amneal identifying the basis for disagreement with the notice of dispute. 
c. 
If no response is filed, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall 
adjust the amount calculated consistent with the written notice of dispute, and 
Amneal shall pay the adjusted amount, collectively totaling that Payment Year's 
Annual Remediation Payment, on the Payment Date. If a written response to the 
written notice of dispute is timely sent to the Settlement Fund Administrator, the 
Settlement Fund Administrator shall notify Amneal of the preliminary amount to 
be paid, which shall be the greater of the amount originally calculated by the  
Settlement Fund Administrator or the amount that would be consistent with the 
notice of dispute, provided, however, that in no circumstances shall the preliminary 
amount to be paid be higher than the Annual Remediation Maximum.  For the 
avoidance of doubt, a transfer of payments from the Settlement Fund Escrow for 
other Payment Years does not count toward determining whether the amount to be 
paid is higher than the Annual Remediation Maximum or other relevant maximum 
payment. 
d. 
The Settlement Fund Administrator shall place any disputed amount 
of the preliminary amount paid by Amneal into the Settlement Fund Escrow and 
shall disburse any undisputed amount to each Settling State and its Participating 
Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G pursuant to Section IV.C.4. 
4. 
If a Settling State informs the Settlement Fund Administrator that it and its 
Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G have agreed on the amount of its Statewide 
Payment Amount, determined pursuant to Section IV.C.2 or Section IV.C.3, to be distributed 
to the Settling State, among its separate types of funds (if applicable), and among its 
Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall 
disburse the Statewide Payment Amount pursuant to the consensus distribution amounts 
provided by the Settling State as quickly as practical. For a Settling State that does not so 
notify the Settlement Fund Administrator, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall allocate

18 
 
 
 
the Settling State’s Statewide Payment Amount, pursuant to Section V, among the separate 
types of funds for the Settling State (if applicable), and among its Participating Subdivisions 
listed on Exhibit G using the following procedures: 
a. 
As soon as possible for each payment and following the 
determination described in Section IV.C.2 or Section IV.C.3, the Settlement Fund 
Administrator shall give notice to the relevant Settling States and their Participating 
Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G of the amount to be received by each Settling State, 
the amount to be received by the separate types of funds for each Settling State (if 
applicable), and the amount to be received by each Participating Subdivision listed 
on Exhibit G for each Settling State. 
b. 
Within twenty-one (21) days of the notice provided by the 
Settlement Fund Administrator, any Settling State or Participating Subdivision 
listed on Exhibit G may dispute, in writing, the calculation of the amount to be 
received by the relevant Settling State and/or its Participating Subdivision listed on 
Exhibit G. A dispute will be deemed invalid and disregarded if it challenges the 
allocations adopted by a State-Subdivision Agreement approved pursuant to the 
provisions of Exhibit O or by statute. Such disputing party must provide a written 
notice of dispute to the Settlement Fund Administrator, any affected Settling State, 
and any affected Participating Subdivision identifying the nature of the dispute, the 
amount of money that is disputed, and the Settling State(s) affected. 
c. 
Within twenty-one (21) days of the sending of a written notice of 
dispute, any affected Settling State or any affected Participating Subdivision may 
submit a response, in writing, to the Settlement Fund Administrator, any affected 
Settling State and any affected Participating Subdivision identifying the basis for 
disagreement with the notice of dispute. 
d. 
If no response is filed, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall 
adjust the amount calculated consistent with the written notice of dispute.  
e. 
The Settlement Fund Administrator shall place any disputed amount 
into the Settlement Fund Escrow and shall disburse any undisputed amount to the 
Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions eligible for payment. 
5. 
Disputes described in this subsection shall be resolved in accordance with the terms 
of Section VI.F. 
6. 
The Settlement Fund Administrator may combine the disbursements of Annual 
Remediation Payments with disbursement of funds under other comparable opioid 
settlements. In determining when disbursements for each Annual Remediation Payment will 
be made, the Settlement Fund Administrator may take into account the timeline for the 
availability of disbursements under other comparable opioid settlements.

19 
 
 
 
7. 
For the avoidance of doubt, a Subdivision not listed on Exhibit G shall not receive 
an allocation from the Subdivision Fund and no provision of this Agreement shall be 
interpreted to create such an entitlement. 
D. 
Procedure for Annual Remediation Payment and Annual Fees Payment in Payment 
Year 1. The process described in Section IV.C shall not apply to Payment Year 1. The procedure 
in lieu of Section IV.C for Payment Year 1 is as set forth below: 
1. 
The Payment Date for Payment Year 1 is 30 days after every Eligible State has 
notified Amneal of its intent to become Settling States. Amneal shall deposit into a segregated 
interest-bearing bank account it establishes the “Adjusted Maximum Base Payment” for 
Payment Year 1 as specified in Exhibit M-2. This amount shall be calculated by multiplying 
the aggregate State Allocation Percentage attributable to Eligible States that have agreed to 
become Settling States by the Preliminary Agreement Date by the “Maximum Base Payment” 
amount specified in Exhibit M-2 for Payment Year 1. Amneal shall also deposit into two (2) 
separate segregated interest-bearing bank accounts it establishes: (a) the “Maximum Exhibit 
R Attorney Fee and Cost Funds” for Payment Year 1 as specified in Exhibit M-3; and (b) the 
sum of the “Maximum State AG Fees” and the “Maximum Additional Remediation Amount” 
for Payment Year 1 as specified in Exhibit M-3. Amneal shall separately account for the 
interest earned on each of the three (3) accounts. 
2. 
Amneal shall provide proof to the Enforcement Committee of the deposits required 
by Section IV.D.1 by July 25, 2025. Amneal shall not remove any money from the segregated 
bank accounts, except as provided by Sections IV.D.3-5. 
3. 
In the event that, in accordance with the terms of Section VIII.B, Amneal 
determines not to proceed with the Settlement, or the Settlement does not become effective 
for any other reason, the funds held in the segregated bank accounts shall immediately revert 
to Amneal.  
4. 
If the condition set forth in Section VIII.B is met, Amneal shall transfer into the 
Settlement Fund, no later than five (5) business days after the Reference Date (unless the 
Enforcement Committee specifies a later date), the amount in the segregated account holding 
the “Adjusted Maximum Base Payment” for Payment Year 1 (including all interest accrued 
on that account) plus the total amount of the Base Payment owed in Payment Year 1 for the 
Eligible States that newly agreed to become a Settling State between the Preliminary 
Agreement Date and the Reference Date, which shall be calculated by multiplying those 
Settling States’ State Allocation Percentage by the amount specified in Exhibit M-2 for 
Payment Year 1. If the condition set forth in Section VIII.B is met, Amneal also shall transfer 
into the relevant funds as directed by the Enforcement Committee, no later than five (5) 
business days after the Reference Date (unless the Enforcement Committee specifies a later 
date), the amount in the segregated account holding the “Maximum Exhibit R Attorney Fee 
and Cost Funds” for Payment Year 1 (including all interest accrued on that account), and the 
amount in the segregated account holding the Maximum State AG Fees and “Maximum

20 
 
 
 
Additional Remediation Amount” for Payment Year 1 (including all interest accrued on that 
account), except that any reductions provided by Section IX.B and Exhibits R and S shall 
revert to Amneal. Amneal shall provide an accounting to the Enforcement Committee of the 
transfers, including Statewide Payment Amount for Payment Year 1 for each Eligible State 
that newly agreed to become a Settling State between the Preliminary Agreement Date and 
the Reference Date. 
5. 
The interest earned from the deposit account holding the Adjusted Maximum Base 
Payment for Payment Year 1 shall be used, first, to pay for the Implementation Administrator, 
then to pay for the Implementation Administrator in the Alvogen, Apotex, Hikma, Indivior, 
Mylan, Sun, and Zydus Settlement Agreements, and finally to be transferred to the Settlement 
Fund to be used to pay for the Settlement Fund Administrator pursuant to Section V.C.5. 
6. 
The Annual Remediation Payment for Payment Year 1 transferred by Amneal into 
the Settlement Fund pursuant to Section IV.D.4 shall be disbursed by the Settlement Fund 
Administrator after the Effective Date to each Settling State and to its Initial Participating 
Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G pursuant to Section IV.C.4 through Section IV.C.7; provided, 
however, that for any Settling State where the Consent Judgment has not been entered as of 
the Effective Date, the funds allocable to that Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions 
listed on Exhibit G shall not be disbursed until ten (10) calendar days after the entry of the 
Consent Judgment in that Settling State. 
E. 
Payment Date for Payment Years 2 through 10. The Payment Date for Payment 
Year 2 is March 1, 2026. The Payment Date for Payment Years 3 through 10 shall be each 
successive March 1. The Annual Remediation Payments for those Payment Years shall be made 
pursuant to the process set forth in Section IV.C.    
F. 
Offsets to Annual Remediation Payments to the Settlement Fund for Non-Settling 
States. An offset equal to $71,751,010 times the State Allocation Percentage assigned to each Non-
Settling State in Exhibit F shall be deducted from the total amount to be paid by Amneal to the 
Settlement Fund. For the avoidance of doubt, the Adjusted Maximum Remediation Payment is 
calculated in a way that reflects this offset. The Base Payments and Incentive Payments are also 
subject to offset as provided in Section XII. 
G. 
Base Payments.  
1. 
Subject to the offset provisions set forth in Section XII, Amneal shall make Base 
Payments into the Settlement Fund in an amount equal to forty percent (40%) of the Adjusted 
Maximum Remediation Payment. The maximum total for Base Payments is $28,700,404. The 
Base Payments shall be due in installments consistent with Exhibit M-2 over the ten (10) 
Payment Years.

21 
 
 
 
2. 
The Base Payment for any Settling State in each Payment Year shall be the Base 
Payment for that Payment Year specified in Exhibit M-2 times the Settling State’s State 
Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F. 
H. 
Incentive Payments.  
1. 
Subject to the offset provisions set forth in Section XII, Amneal shall make 
potential additional incentive payments totaling up to a maximum of sixty percent (60%) of 
the Adjusted Maximum Remediation Payment, with the Incentive Payment amount depending 
on whether and the extent to which the criteria set forth below are met in each Settling State. 
The maximum total for Incentive Payments is $43,050,606.   
2. 
A Settling State qualifies to receive Incentive Payments in addition to Base 
Payments if it meets the incentive eligibility requirements specified below. The maximum 
total Incentive Payment for any Settling State shall be no more than the maximum total for 
Incentive Payments listed in Section IV.H.1 times the Settling State’s State Allocation 
Percentage specified in Exhibit F. Incentive Payments are state-specific, with the actual 
amount depending on whether and the extent to which the criteria set forth below are met in 
such Settling State.   
3. 
The incentive payments shall be divided among three (3) categories, referred to as 
Incentive Payments A, BC, and D. Incentive Payments A and BC will be due in installments 
over the nine (9) Payment Years beginning with Payment Year 2, while Incentive D will be 
due in installments over six (6) Payment Years beginning with Payment Year 5, as shown on 
Exhibit M-2. The total amount of incentive payments in an Annual Remediation Payment 
shall be the sum of the incentive payments for which the individual Settling States are eligible 
for that Payment Year under the criteria set forth below. The incentive payments shall be 
made with respect to a specific Settling State based on its eligibility for that Payment Year 
under the criteria set forth below. For the avoidance of doubt, eligibility for Incentive 
Payments A, BC, and D shall be determined on a Settling State-by-Settling State basis. 
4. 
Incentive Payment A.  
a. 
Incentive Payment A is mutually exclusive with Incentive Payments 
BC and D; if a Settling State receives Incentive Payment A in an Annual 
Remediation Payment, such Settling State is not eligible for Incentive Payment BC 
or D in that Annual Remediation Payment. 
b. 
Incentive Payment A shall be equal to sixty percent (60%) of the 
Adjusted Maximum Remediation Payment, provided all Settling States satisfy the 
requirements of Incentive Payment A. Incentive Payment A will be due to a Settling 
State as part of the Annual Remediation Payment over nine (9) Payment Years, 
starting in Payment Year 2, and shall equal a total potential maximum of 
$43,050,606 if all Eligible States qualify for Incentive Payment A. Each Settling

22 
 
 
 
State’s share of Incentive Payment A in a given year, provided that Settling State 
qualifies, shall equal the total maximum amount available for Incentive Payment A 
for that year as reflected in Exhibit M-2 times the Settling State’s State Allocation 
Percentage.  
c. 
Qualification for Incentive Payment A is as follows: A Settling State 
qualifies for Incentive Payment A if, as of two (2) years of the Effective Date: (i) 
there is a Bar in that Settling State in full force and effect, (ii) the Released Claims 
of all of the following entities are released through the execution of Subdivision 
Settlement Participation Forms, or there is a Case-Specific Resolution against such 
entities: all Primary Subdivisions, Litigating Subdivisions, School Districts with a 
K-12 student enrollment of at least 25,000 or .10% of a Settling State’s population, 
whichever is greater, Hospital Districts that have at least one hundred twenty-five 
(125) hospital beds in one or more hospitals rendering services in that district, and 
Primary Fire Districts; or (iii) a combination of the actions in clauses (i) and (ii) has 
achieved the same level of resolution of Claims by Subdivisions (e.g., a Bar against 
future litigation combined with full joinder by Litigating Subdivisions). For the 
avoidance of doubt, subsection (iii) cannot be satisfied unless all Litigating 
Subdivisions are Participating Subdivisions or there is a Case-Specific Resolution 
against any such Subdivisions that are not Participating Subdivisions. Amneal and 
the Enforcement Committee shall meet and confer in order to agree on data sources 
for purposes of this Section prior to the Initial Participation Date. 
d. 
A Settling State that does not qualify for Incentive Payment A as of 
two (2) years after the Effective Date shall not be eligible for Incentive Payment A 
for that Payment Year or any subsequent Payment Years.   
e. 
To the extent a Settling State asserts that existing legislation 
qualifies as a Bar, the Settling State shall provide notice to Amneal no later than 30 
days before the Initial Participation Date. Amneal shall indicate before the Initial 
Participation Date whether existing legislation in a Settling State is sufficient to 
qualify as a Bar.   
f. 
If a Settling State does not qualify for Incentive Payment A as of the 
Payment Date for Payment Year 2 and becomes eligible for Incentive Payment A 
as of Payment Date for Payment Year 3, it shall receive the payment that it would 
have received for Incentive Payment A for Payment Year 2 (the “Incentive Payment 
A Catch-up Payment”) on the Payment Date for Payment Year 3. If a Settling State 
is not eligible for Incentive Payment A as of the Payment Date for Payment Year 3 
and becomes eligible for Incentive Payment A as of two (2) years after the Effective 
Date, it shall receive the payment that it would have received for Incentive Payment 
A for Payment Years 2 and 3 (also an “Incentive Payment A Catch-up Payment”) 
on the Payment Date for Payment Year 4. The Incentive Payment A Catch-up 
Payment shall be reduced by any amounts paid to the Settling State under Incentive 
Payment BC prior to the Settling State’s eligibility for Incentive Payment A.

23 
 
 
 
g. 
If Amneal made a payment under Incentive Payment A solely on the 
basis of a Bar in a Settling State and that Bar is subsequently removed, revoked, 
rescinded, reversed, overruled, interpreted in a manner to limit the scope of the 
release, or otherwise deprived of force or effect in any material respect, that Settling 
State shall not be eligible for Incentive Payment A thereafter, unless the Settling 
State requalifies for Incentive Payment A through any method pursuant to Section 
IV.H.4.c, in which case the Settling State shall be eligible for Incentive Payment A 
less any litigation fees and costs incurred by Amneal in the interim, except that, if 
the re-imposition occurs after the completion of opening statements in a trial 
involving a Released Claim, the Settling State shall not be eligible for Incentive 
Payment A (unless this exception is waived by Amneal). 
5. 
Incentive Payment BC.   
a. 
Incentive Payment BC shall be available to Settling States that do 
not qualify for Incentive Payment A.   
b. 
Incentive Payment BC shall be up to a maximum of fifty-seven 
percent (57%) of the Settling State’s State Allocation.  Incentive Payment BC will 
be due to a Settling State as part of the Annual Remediation Payment over nine (9) 
Payment Years, starting in Annual Remediation Payment 2. Subject to Section 
IV.F, Incentive Payment BC shall equal a total potential maximum of $40,898,076 
if all Eligible States qualify for Incentive Payment BC (and do not qualify for 
Incentive Payment A).  
c. 
A Settling State may earn Incentive Payment BC in Annual 
Remediation Payments 2 through 10 and may receive, when combined with the 
Settling State’s Base Payment, up to ninety-seven percent (97%) of the Settling 
State’s State Allocation. The maximum Incentive Payment BC for any Settling 
State in a given Payment Year shall be the maximum potential Incentive Payment 
BC for that Payment Year specified in Exhibit M-2 times the Settling State’s State 
Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F, provided such Settling State becomes 
eligible for Incentive Payment BC by sixty (60) days before the Payment Date for 
Payment Year 6. 
d. 
The amount of Incentive Payment BC for which a Settling State is 
eligible shall be determined based on the aggregate population of the Settling 
State’s Incentive BC Subdivisions that are Participating Subdivisions or have had 
their claims resolved through a Case-Specific Resolution, divided by the aggregate 
population of all the Settling State’s Incentive BC Subdivisions. The Settling 
State’s Incentive BC Subdivisions are (i) all Litigating Subdivisions (including 
School Districts and Special Districts) and (ii) all Primary Subdivisions that have 
not sued Amneal as of the Initial Participation Date (collectively, “Incentive BC 
Subdivisions”).

24 
 
 
 
e. 
The percentage of the Settling State’s maximum Incentive Payment 
BC for the Payment Year provided by Section IV.H.5.c to which the Settling State 
is entitled shall be determined according to the table of Incentive BC payment levels 
below:

5 The “Participation Percentage of Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision Population” shall be determined by the aggregate 
population of the Settling State’s Incentive BC Subdivisions that are Participating Subdivisions or have had their 
claims resolved through a Case-Specific Resolution, divided by the aggregate population of the Settling State’s 
Incentive BC Subdivisions. In calculating the Settling State’s population that resides in Incentive BC Subdivisions, 
the population of the Settling State’s Incentive BC Subdivisions shall be the sum of the population of all Incentive BC 
Subdivisions in the Settling State, notwithstanding that persons may be included within the population of more than 
one Incentive BC Subdivision. An individual Subdivision shall not be included more than once in the numerator, and 
shall not be included more than once in the denominator, of the calculation regardless if it (or any of its officials) is 
named as multiple plaintiffs in the same lawsuit; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, no Subdivision 
will be excluded from the numerator or denominator under this sentence unless a Subdivision otherwise counted in 
the denominator has the authority to release the Claims (consistent with Section X) of the Subdivision to be excluded.

f. 
For Payment Years 2-5, the percentage of the available Incentive 
Payment BC amount for which a Settling State is eligible will be based on the 
Participation Percentage of Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision Population as of 
sixty (60) days before the Payment Date. For Payment Years 6-10, the percentage 
of the available Incentive Payment BC amount for which a Settling State is eligible 
will be based on the Participation Percentage of Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision 
Population as of sixty (60) days before the Payment Date for Payment Year 6. If 
Incentive BC Eligible Subdivisions that have become Participating Subdivisions, 
or achieved Case-Specific Resolution status, collectively represent less than eighty-
five percent (85%) of a Settling State’s Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision 
population by sixty (60) days before the Payment Date for Payment Year 6, the 
Settling State shall not receive any Incentive Payment BC. 
g. 
If there are no Incentive BC Eligible Subdivisions in a Settling State, 
and that Settling State is otherwise eligible for Incentive Payment BC because it is 
not eligible for Incentive Payment A, that Settling State will receive its maximum 
Incentive Payment BC for that Annual Remediation Payment provided by Section 
IV.H.5.c. 
6. 
Incentive Payment D. 
a. 
Incentive Payment D shall be available to Settling States that do not 
qualify for Incentive Payment A. 
b. 
Incentive Payment D shall be equal to up to a maximum of ten 
percent (10%) of the Adjusted Maximum Remediation Payment, with the actual 
amount depending whether and the extent to which the criteria set forth below are 
met in each Settling State. The maximum total for Incentive Payment D is 
$7,175,101.6   
                                                     
 
6 The Incentive Payment BC table specified in Section IV.H.5.e and Incentive Payment D table specified in Section 
IV.H.6.f operate so that the combined amount of Incentive Payment BC and Incentive Payment D cannot exceed

26 
 
 
 
c. 
Incentive Payment D shall be paid starting at Payment Year 5 and 
the amount of Incentive Payment D in Payment Years 5-10 will depend on (i) the 
Settling State meeting the qualifications set out in Section IV.H.6.d and (ii) the 
Participation Percentage of Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision Population achieved 
by the Settling State as of sixty (60) days prior to the Payment Date for Payment 
Year 5. 
d. 
A Settling State qualifies for Incentive Payment D if no Later 
Litigating Subdivision (for purposes of Incentive Payment D, Later Litigating 
Subdivisions are limited to (i) a Primary Subdivision; (ii) a school district with a 
K-12 student enrollment of at least 25,000 or 0.10% of the Settling State’s 
population, whichever is greater; (iii) a health district or hospital district that has at 
least one hundred twenty-five (125) hospital beds in one or more hospitals 
rendering services in that district; and (iv) Primary Fire Districts) in that Settling 
State has a lawsuit against a Released Entity survive more than six (6) months after 
denial in whole or in part of a Threshold Motion.  
e. 
A Settling State’s qualification for Incentive Payment D shall be 
determined as of sixty (60) calendar days prior to the Payment Date (“Incentive 
Payment D Look-Back Date”). If a Later Litigating Subdivision’s lawsuit in that 
Settling State survives more than six (6) months after denial in whole or in part a 
Threshold Motion after that date, that Settling State shall not be eligible for 
Incentive Payment D for the Payment Year in which that occurs and any subsequent 
Payment Year. 
f. 
The Incentive Payment D for any Settling State qualifying for 
Incentive Payment D in Payment Years 5-10 shall be equal to between three percent 
(3%) and ten percent (10%) of the of the State Remediation Payment times the 
Settling State’s Overall Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F. The 
applicable percentage shall be determined based on the Participation Percentage of 
Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision Population achieved by the Incentive Payment 
D Look-Back Date for Payment Year 5 as shown in the table below: 
 
Participation Percentage of Incentive 
BC Eligible Subdivision Population as

sixtypercent (60%) of the Adjusted Maximum Remediation Payment over the term of the Agreement. Amneal will 
have no obligation to pay more than $43,050,606 for the combined amounts of Incentive Payment BC and Incentive 
Payment D minus any offsets for Non-Settling States specified in Section IV.F.

g. 
Incentive Payment D shall be paid in six installments. The Incentive 
Payment D for any Settling State in a given Payment Year shall be the Maximum 
Incentive Payment D for that Payment Year specified in Exhibit M-2 times the 
Settling State’s State Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F times the ratio 
between the applicable percentage determined by Section IV.H.6.f and ten percent 
(10%).7 Prior to making the Annual Remediation Payment for Payment Years 5-
10, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall determine a Settling State’s 
qualification for Incentive Payment D as of the Incentive Payment D Look-Back 
Date for that Payment Year. Prior to the Incentive Payment D Look-Back Date for 
each Payment Year, Amneal may provide the Settlement Fund Administrator and 
the Enforcement Committee with notice identifying any Settling State(s) it believes 
do not qualify for Incentive Payment D and information supporting its belief. 
h. 
Notwithstanding Section IV.H.6.d and Section IV.H.6.e, a Settling 
State can become re-eligible for Incentive Payment D if the lawsuit that survived a 
Threshold Motion is dismissed pursuant to a later motion on grounds included in 
the Threshold Motion, in which case the Settling State shall be eligible for Incentive 
Payment D less any litigation fees and costs incurred by Amneal in the interim, 
except that if the dismissal motion occurs after the completion of opening 
statements in such action, the Settling State shall not be eligible for Incentive 
Payment D. 
 
7. 
In no event shall any Settling State receive Base Payments and Incentive Payments 
A, BC, and D totaling more than one hundred percent (100%) of its respective Overall State 
Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F times the Maximum Remediation Payment. 
 
V. 
Allocation and Use of Settlement Payments 
A. 
Components of Settlement Fund. The Settlement Fund shall be funded by the 
Annual Remediation Payments and comprised of a Remediation Accounts Fund, a State Fund, and 
a Subdivision Fund for each Settling State. The payments made under Section IV into the 
                                                     
 
7 For example, for a Settling State with a Participation Percentage of Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision Population as 
of 60 days prior to the Payment Date for Payment Year 5 of 100%, the Incentive Payment D for any given Payment 
Year shall be the Maximum Incentive Payment D for that Payment Year specified in Exhibit M-2 times the Settling 
State’s State Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F times 0.3. For a Settling State with a Participation Percentage 
of Incentive BC Eligible Subdivision Population as of 60 days prior to the Payment Date for Payment Year 5 of less 
than 95%, the Incentive Payment D for any given Payment Year shall be the Maximum Incentive Payment D for that 
Payment Year specified in Exhibit M-2 times the Settling State’s State Allocation Percentage specified in Exhibit F 
times .1.

28 
 
 
 
Settlement Fund shall be initially allocated among those three (3) sub-funds and distributed and 
used as provided below. Payments placed into the Settlement Fund do not revert back to Amneal. 
B. 
Use of Settlement Payments. 
1. 
It is the intent of the Parties that the payments disbursed from the Settlement Fund 
to Settling States and Participating Subdivisions be for Opioid Remediation, subject to 
exceptions that must be documented in accordance with Section V.B.2. In no event may less 
than ninety-five percent (95%) of Amneal’s maximum amount of payments pursuant to 
Section IV as set forth on Exhibit M-2 over the entirety of all Payments Years (but not any 
single Payment Year) be spent on Opioid Remediation.  
2. 
While disfavored by the Parties, a Settling State or a Participating Subdivision set 
forth on Exhibit G may use monies from the Settlement Fund (that have not been restricted 
by this Agreement solely to future Opioid Remediation) for purposes that do not qualify as 
Opioid Remediation. If, at any time, a Settling State or a Participating Subdivision set forth 
on Exhibit G uses any monies from the Settlement Fund for a purpose that does not qualify 
as Opioid Remediation, such Settling State or Participating Subdivision set forth on Exhibit 
G shall identify such amounts and report to the Settlement Fund Administrator and Amneal 
how such funds were used, including if used to pay attorneys' fees, investigation costs, 
litigation costs, or costs related to the operation and enforcement of this Agreement, 
respectively. It is the intent of the Parties that the reporting under this Section V.B.2 shall be 
available to the public. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) any amounts not identified under this 
Section V.B.2 as used to pay attorneys' fees, investigation costs, or litigation costs shall be 
included in the Compensatory Restitution Amount for purposes of Section V.F and (b) 
Participating Subdivisions not listed on Exhibit G may only use monies from the Settlement 
Fund for purposes that qualify as Opioid Remediation. 
C. 
Allocation of Settlement Fund.  The allocation of the Settlement Fund allows for 
different approaches to be taken in different states, such as through a State-Subdivision Agreement. 
Given the uniqueness of Settling States and their Subdivisions, Settling States and their 
Subdivisions are encouraged to enter into State-Subdivision Agreements in order to direct the 
allocation of their portion of the Settlement Fund. As set out below, the Settlement Fund 
Administrator will make an initial allocation to three (3) state-level sub-funds. The Settlement 
Fund Administrator will then, for each Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions, apply the 
terms of this Agreement and any relevant State-Subdivision Agreement, Statutory Trust, 
Allocation Statute, or voluntary redistribution of funds as set out below before disbursing the 
funds. 
1. 
Base Payments. The Settlement Fund Administrator will allocate Base Payments 
under Section IV.G among the Settling States pursuant to Section IV.G.2. Base payments for 
each Settling State will then be allocated fifteen percent (15%) to its State Fund, seventy 
percent (70%) to its Remediation Accounts Fund, and fifteen percent (15%) to its Subdivision 
Fund.  Amounts may be reallocated and will be distributed as provided in Section V.D.

29 
 
 
 
2. 
Incentive Payments. The Settlement Fund Administrator will treat Incentive 
Payments under Section IV.H on a state-specific basis. Incentive Payments for which a 
Settling State is eligible will be allocated fifteen percent (15%) to its State Fund, seventy 
percent (70%) to its Remediation Accounts Fund, and fifteen percent (15%) to its Subdivision 
Fund. Amounts may be reallocated and will be distributed as provided in Section V.D. 
3. 
Application of Adjustments. If an offset under Section XII applies with respect to 
a Settling State, the offset shall be applied proportionally to all amounts that would otherwise 
be apportioned and distributed to the State Fund, the Remediation Accounts Fund, and the 
Subdivision Fund for that Settling State. 
4. 
Settlement Fund Administrator. Prior to the Effective Date, Amneal and the 
Enforcement Committee will agree to a detailed mechanism consistent with the foregoing for 
the Settlement Fund Administrator to follow in allocating, apportioning, and distributing 
payments, which shall then be appended hereto as Exhibit L. 
5. 
Settlement Fund Administrator Costs. Any costs and fees associated with or arising 
out of the duties of the Settlement Fund Administrator as described in Exhibit L shall be paid 
from the interest accrued in the Settlement Fund Escrow and the Settlement Fund; provided, 
however, that if such accrued interest is insufficient to pay the entirety of any such costs and 
fees, the additional amount shall be paid out of the Settlement Fund. For the avoidance of 
doubt, nothing in this provision shall require Amneal to pay any costs, fees or other amounts 
in excess of the Global Settlement Amount. 
D. 
Settlement Fund Reallocation and Distribution.  As set forth below, within a 
particular Settling State's account, amounts contained in the Settlement Fund sub-funds may be 
reallocated and distributed per a State-Subdivision Agreement or other means. If the 
apportionment of amounts is not addressed and controlled under Section V.D.1 and Section V.D.2, 
then the default provisions of Section V.D.4 apply. It is not necessary that a State-Subdivision 
Agreement or other means of allocating funds pursuant to Section V.D.1 and Section V.D.2 
address all of the Settlement Fund sub-funds. For example, a Statutory Trust might only address 
disbursements from a Settling State’s Remediation Accounts Fund. 
1. 
Distribution by State-Subdivision Agreement. If a Settling State has a State- 
Subdivision Agreement, amounts apportioned to that Settling State’s State Fund, Remediation 
Accounts Fund, and Subdivision Fund under Section V.C shall be reallocated and distributed 
as provided by that agreement. Any State-Subdivision Agreement entered into after the 
Preliminary Agreement Date shall be applied only if it requires: (a) that all amounts be used 
for Opioid Remediation, except as allowed by Section V.B.2, and (b) that at least seventy 
percent (70%) of amounts be used solely for future Opioid Remediation. 8 For a State-
                                                     
 
8 Future Opioid Remediation includes amounts paid to satisfy any future demand by another governmental entity to 
make a required reimbursement in connection with the past care and treatment of a person related to the Alleged 
Harms

30 
 
 
 
Subdivision Agreement to be applied to the relevant portion of an Annual Payment, notice 
must be provided to Amneal and the Settlement Fund Administrator at least sixty (60) 
calendar days prior to the Payment Date. 
2. 
Distribution by Allocation Statute. If a Settling State has an Allocation Statute 
and/or a Statutory Trust that addresses allocation or distribution of amounts apportioned to 
such Settling State’s State Fund, Remediation Accounts Fund, and/or Subdivision Fund and 
that, to the extent any or all such sub-funds are addressed, requires (1) all amounts to be used 
for Opioid Remediation, except as allowed by Section V.B.2, and (2) at least seventy percent 
(70%) of all amounts to be used solely for future Opioid Remediation then, to the extent 
allocation or distribution is addressed, the amounts apportioned to that Settling State’s State 
Fund, Remediation Accounts Fund, and Subdivision Fund under Section V.C shall be 
allocated and distributed as addressed and provided by the applicable Allocation Statute or 
Statutory Trust. For the avoidance of doubt, an Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust need not 
address all three (3) sub-funds that comprise the Settlement Fund, and if the applicable 
Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust does not address distribution of all or some of these three 
(3) sub-funds, the applicable Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust does not replace the default 
provisions described in Section V of any such unaddressed fund. For example, if an Allocation 
Statute or Statutory Trust that meets the requirements of this Section V.D.2 only addresses 
funds restricted to remediation, then the default provisions of this Agreement concerning 
allocation among the three (3) sub-funds comprising the Settlement Fund and the distribution 
of the State Fund and Subdivision Fund for that Settling State would still apply, while the 
distribution of the applicable State’s Remediation Accounts Fund would be governed by the 
qualifying Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust. 
3. 
Voluntary Redistribution. A Settling State may choose to reallocate all or a portion 
of its State Fund to its Remediation Accounts Fund. A Participating Subdivision included on 
Exhibit G may choose to reallocate all or a portion of its allocation from the Subdivision Fund 
to the Settling State’s Remediation Accounts Fund or to another Participating Subdivision. 
The Settlement Fund Administrator is not required to honor a voluntary redistribution for 
which notice is provided to it less than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the applicable Payment 
Date. 
4. 
Distribution in the Absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, 
or Statutory Trust.  If Section V.D.1 and Section V.D.2 do not apply, amounts apportioned to 
that Settling State’s State Fund, Remediation Accounts Fund, and Subdivision Fund under 
Section V.C shall be distributed as follows: 
a. 
Amounts apportioned to that Settling State’s State Fund shall be 
distributed to that Settling State. 
b. 
Amounts apportioned to that Settling State’s Remediation Accounts 
Fund shall be distributed consistent with Section V.E. Each Settling State shall 
submit to the Settlement Fund Administrator a designation of a lead state agency 
or other entity to serve as the single point of contact for that Settling State’s funding

31 
 
 
 
requests from the Remediation Accounts Fund and other communications with the 
Settlement Fund Administrator. The designation of an individual entity is for 
administrative purposes only and such designation shall not limit funding to such 
entity or even require that such entity receive funds from this Agreement. The 
designated entity shall be the only entity authorized to request funds from the 
Settlement Fund Administrator to be disbursed from that Settling State’s 
Remediation Accounts Fund. If a Settling State has established a Statutory Trust 
then that Settling State’s single point of contact may direct the Settlement Fund 
Administrator to release the Settling State’s Remediation Accounts Fund to the 
Statutory Trust. 
c. 
Amounts apportioned to that Settling State’s Subdivision Fund shall 
be distributed to Participating Subdivisions in that Settling State included on 
Exhibit G per the Subdivision Allocation Percentage listed in Exhibit G. Section 
VII.H shall govern amounts that would otherwise be distributed to Non-
Participating Subdivisions listed in Exhibit G. For the avoidance of doubt and 
notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no Non-Participating 
Subdivision will directly receive any amount from the Settlement Fund, regardless 
of whether such Subdivision is included on Exhibit G.  
d. 
Special Districts shall not be allocated funds from the Subdivision 
Fund, except through a voluntary redistribution allowed by Section V.D.3 to 
Special Districts that are Participating Subdivisions. A Settling State may allocate 
funds from its State Fund or Remediation Accounts Fund for Special Districts that 
are Participating Subdivisions. 
5. 
Restrictions on Distribution. No amounts may be distributed from the Subdivision 
Fund contrary to Section VII, i.e., no amounts may be distributed directly to Non-Participating 
Subdivisions or to Later Participating Subdivisions to the extent such a distribution would 
violate Section VII.E through Section VII.H. Amounts allocated to the Subdivision Fund that 
cannot be distributed by virtue of the preceding sentence shall be distributed into the sub-
account in the Remediation Accounts Fund for the Settling State in which the Subdivision is 
located, unless those payments are redirected elsewhere by a State-Subdivision Agreement 
described in Section V.D.1 or by an Allocation Statute or a Statutory Trust described in 
Section V.D.2. 
E. 
Provisions Regarding the Remediation Accounts Fund. 
1. 
State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, and Statutory Trust Fund 
Provisions. A State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust may 
govern the operation and use of amounts in that Settling State’s Remediation Accounts Fund 
so long as it complies with the requirements of Section V.D.1 or Section V.D.2, as applicable, 
and all direct payments to Subdivisions comply with Section VII.E through Section VII.H.

32 
 
 
 
2. 
Absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust. 
In the absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust that 
addresses distribution, the Remediation Accounts Fund will be used solely for future Opioid 
Remediation and the following shall apply with respect to a Settling State: 
a. 
Regional Remediation. 
(i) 
At least fifty percent (50%) of distributions for remediation 
from a Settling State’s Remediation Accounts Fund shall be annually 
allocated and tracked to the regional level. A Settling State may allow the 
Advisory Committee established pursuant to Section V.E.2.d to define its 
regions and assign regional allocations percentages. Otherwise, the Settling 
State shall (A) define its initial regions, which shall consist of one (1) or 
more General Purpose Subdivisions and which shall be designated by the 
state agency with primary responsibility for substance abuse disorder 
services employing, to the maximum extent practical, existing regions 
established in that Settling State for opioid abuse treatment or other public 
health purposes; (B) assign initial regional allocation percentages to the 
regions based on the Subdivision Allocation Percentages in Exhibit G and 
an assumption that all Subdivisions included on Exhibit G will become 
Participating Subdivisions. 
(ii) 
This minimum regional expenditure percentage is calculated 
on the Settling State’s initial Remediation Accounts Fund allocation and 
does not include any additional amounts a Settling State has directed to its 
Remediation Accounts Fund from its State Fund, or any other amounts 
directed to the fund. A Settling State may dedicate more than fifty percent 
(50%) of its Remediation Accounts Fund to the regional expenditure and 
may annually adjust the percentage of its Remediation Accounts Fund 
dedicated to regional expenditures as long as the percentage remains above 
the minimum amount. 
(iii) 
The Settling State (A) has the authority to adjust the 
definition of the regions, and (B) may annually revise the percentages 
allocated to each region to reflect the number of General Purpose 
Subdivisions in each region that are Non-Participating Subdivisions. 
b. 
Subdivision Block Grants. Certain Subdivisions shall be eligible to 
receive regional allocation funds in the form of a block grant for future Opioid 
Remediation. A Participating Subdivision eligible for block grants is a county or 
parish (or in the case of Settling States that do not have counties or parishes that 
function as political subdivisions, a city) that (1) does not contain a Litigating 
Subdivision or a Later Litigating Subdivision for which it has the authority to end 
the litigation through a release, bar or other action; (2) either (i)  has a population 
of 400,000 or more or (ii) in the case of California has a population of 750,000 or 
more; and (3) has funded or otherwise managed an established health care or

33 
 
 
 
treatment infrastructure (e.g., health department or similar agency). Each 
Subdivision eligible to receive block grants shall be assigned its own region. 
c. 
Small Settling States. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 
V.E.2.a, Settling States with populations under four (4) million that do not have 
existing regions described in Section V.E.2.a shall not be required to establish 
regions. However, such a Settling State that contains one (1) or more Subdivisions 
eligible for block grants under Section V.E.2.b shall be divided regionally so that 
each block-grant eligible Subdivision is a region, and the remainder of the state is 
a region. 
d. 
Advisory Committee. The Settling State shall designate an Opioid 
Settlement Remediation Advisory Committee (the “Advisory Committee”) to 
provide input and recommendations regarding remediation spending from that 
Settling State’s Remediation Accounts Fund. A Settling State may elect to use an 
existing advisory committee or similar entity (created outside of a State-
Subdivision Agreement or Allocation Statute); provided, however, the Advisory 
Committee or similar entity shall meet the following requirements: 
(i) 
Written guidelines that establish the formation and 
composition of the Advisory Committee, terms of service for members, 
contingency for removal or resignation of members, a schedule of meetings, 
and any other administrative details; 
(ii) 
Composition that includes at least an equal number of local 
representatives as state representatives; 
(iii) 
A process for receiving input from Subdivisions and other 
communities regarding how the opioid crisis is affecting their communities, 
their remediation needs, and proposals for remediation strategies and 
responses; and 
(iv) 
A process by which Advisory Committee recommendations 
for expenditures for Opioid Remediation will be made to and considered by 
the appropriate state agencies. 
3. 
Remediation Accounts Fund Reporting. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall 
track and assist in the report of remediation disbursements as agreed to between Amneal and 
the Enforcement Committee 
 
F. 
Nature of Payment.  Amneal, the Settling States, and the Participating Subdivisions 
each acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, 
including, but not limited to, the scope of the Released Claims:

34 
 
 
 
1. 
They have entered into this Agreement to avoid the delay, expense, inconvenience, 
and uncertainty of further litigation; 
2. 
(a) The Settling States and Participating Subdivisions sought compensatory 
payments   (within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A) and 26 C.F.R. § 1.162-21(e)(4)(i)) 
as damages for the Alleged Harms allegedly suffered by the Settling States and Participating 
Subdivisions; (b) the Compensatory Restitution Amount is less than or equal to the amount, 
in the aggregate, of the Alleged Harms allegedly suffered by the Settling States and 
Participating Subdivisions; and (c) the portion of the Compensatory Restitution Amount 
received by each Settling State or Participating Subdivision is less than or equal to the amount 
of the Alleged Harms allegedly suffered by such Settling State or Participating Subdivision; 
3. 
The payment of the Compensatory Restitution Amount by Amneal constitutes 
payment   (within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A) and 26 C.F.R. § 1.162-21(e)(4)(i), 
(ii)) for alleged damage or harm   allegedly caused by Amneal  in order to restore, in whole 
or in part, the Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and persons to the same position or 
condition that they would be in had the Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and persons 
not suffered the Alleged Harms, and constitutes compensatory restitution and remediation for 
alleged damage or harm allegedly caused by the potential violation of a law; and 
4. 
For the avoidance of doubt:  (a) the entire Compensatory Restitution Amount is 
properly characterized as described in Section V.F, (b) no portion of the Compensatory 
Restitution Amount represents reimbursement to any Settling State or Participating 
Subdivision or other person or entity for the fees or costs of any investigation or litigation, 
including without limitation attorneys’ fees, (c) no portion of the Global Settlement Amount 
constitutes the disgorgement of any allegedly ill-gotten gains, and (d) no portion of the Global 
Settlement Amount is paid for, is in place of, or is properly characterized as the payment of 
any fine, penalty, punitive damages, or other punitive assessments. 
VI. 
Enforcement 
A. 
Enforceability. This Agreement is enforceable only by the Settling States and 
Amneal; provided, however, that Released Entities may enforce Section X and Participating 
Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G have the enforcement rights described later in this paragraph and 
in Section VI.D. Except to the extent allowed by the Injunctive Relief Terms, Settling States and 
Participating Subdivisions shall not have enforcement rights against Amneal with respect to either 
the terms of this Agreement that apply only to or in other Settling States or any Consent Judgment 
entered into by another Settling State. Participating Subdivisions shall not have enforcement rights 
against Amneal with respect to this Agreement or any Consent Judgment except that Participating 
Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G shall have enforcement rights as set forth herein as to payments 
that would be allocated to the Participating Subdivisions or the Remediation Accounts Fund in 
such Settling State; provided, however, that each Settling State shall allow Participating 
Subdivisions in such Settling State to notify it of any perceived violations of this Agreement or the 
applicable Consent Judgment.

35 
 
 
 
B. 
Jurisdiction. Amneal consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which each Settling 
State files its Consent Judgment, limited to resolution of disputes identified in Section VI.F.2 for 
resolution in that court. 
C. 
Specific Terms Dispute Resolution. 
1. 
Any dispute that is addressed by the provisions set forth in the Injunctive Relief 
Terms shall be resolved as provided therein. 
2. 
In the event that Amneal believes that the ninety-five percent (95%) threshold 
established in Section V.B.1 is not being satisfied, any Party may request that Amneal and the 
Enforcement Committee meet and confer regarding the use of funds to implement Section 
V.B.1. The completion of such meet-and-confer process is a precondition to further action 
regarding any such dispute. Further action concerning Section V.B.1 shall: (i) be limited to 
Amneal seeking to reduce its Annual Remediation Payments by no more than five percent 
(5%) of the difference between the actual amount of Opioid Remediation and the ninety-five 
percent (95%) threshold established in Section V.B.1; (ii) only reduce Annual Remediation 
Payments to those Settling States and their Participating Subdivision(s) that are below the 
ninety-five percent (95%) threshold established in Section V.B.1; and (iii) not reduce Annual 
Remediation Payments restricted to future Opioid Remediation. 
D. 
State-Subdivision Enforcement. 
1. 
A Subdivision shall not have enforcement rights against a Settling State in which it 
is located with respect to this Agreement or any Consent Judgment except that a Participating 
Subdivision listed on Exhibit G shall have enforcement rights (a) as provided for in a State-
Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust with respect to intrastate 
allocation or (b) in the absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or 
Statutory Trust, to allegations that (i) the Settling State’s use of Remediation Accounts Fund 
monies were not used for uses similar to or in the nature of those uses contained in Exhibit E; 
or (ii) a Settling State failed to pay funds directly from the Remediation Accounts Fund to a 
Participating Subdivision eligible to receive a block grant pursuant to Section V.E.2.b. 
2. 
A Settling State shall have enforcement rights against a Participating Subdivision 
located in its territory (a) as provided for in a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation 
Statute, or Statutory Trust; or (b) in the absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation 
Statute, or Statutory Trust, to allegations that the Participating Subdivisions’ uses of 
Remediation Accounts Fund monies were not used for purposes similar to or in the nature of 
those uses contained in Exhibit E. 
3. 
As between the Settling States and Participating Subdivisions, the above rights are 
contractual in nature and nothing herein is intended to limit, restrict, change or alter any other 
existing rights under law.

36 
 
 
 
E. 
Subdivision Amneal Payment Enforcement. A Participating Subdivision listed on 
Exhibit G shall have the same right as a Settling State to seek resolution regarding the failure by 
Amneal to make its Annual Remediation Payment in a Payment Year. 
F. 
Other Terms Regarding Dispute Resolution. 
1. 
The parties to a dispute shall promptly meet and confer in good faith to resolve any 
dispute. If the parties cannot resolve the dispute informally, and unless otherwise agreed in 
writing, they shall follow the remaining provisions in this section to resolve the dispute.  
2. 
Except to the extent provided by Section VI.C or Section VI.F.3, all disputes not 
resolved informally shall be resolved in either the court that entered the relevant Consent 
Judgment or, if no such Consent Judgment was entered, a state or territorial court with 
jurisdiction located wherever the seat of the relevant state government is located.  
a. 
State court proceedings shall be governed by the rules and 
procedures of the relevant forum.  
b. 
For the avoidance of doubt, disputes to be resolved in state court 
include, but are not limited to, the following: 
(i) 
disputes concerning whether expenditures qualify as Opioid 
Remediation; 
(ii) 
disputes between a Settling State and its Participating 
Subdivisions as provided by Section VI.D, except to the extent the State-
Subdivision Agreement provides for other dispute resolution mechanisms. 
For the avoidance of doubt, disputes between a Settling State and any 
Participating Subdivision shall not be considered National Disputes; 
(iii) 
whether this Agreement and relevant Consent Judgment are 
binding under state law;  
(iv) 
the extent of the Attorney General’s or other participating 
entity’s authority under state law, including the extent of the authority to 
release claims; and 
(v) 
whether the definition of a Bar, a Case-Specific Resolution, 
Final Order, lead state agency as described in Section V.D.4.b, Later 
Litigating Subdivision, Litigating Subdivision, or Threshold Motion have 
been met; and  
(vi) 
all other disputes not specifically identified in Section VI.C 
or Section VI.F.3.

37 
 
 
 
c. 
Any Party may request that the National Arbitration Panel provide 
an interpretation of any provision of the settlement that is relevant to the state court 
determination, and the National Arbitration Panel shall make reasonable best 
efforts to supply such interpretation within the earlier of thirty (30) calendar days 
or the time period required by the state court proceedings. Any Party may submit 
that interpretation to the state court to the extent permitted by, and for such weight 
provided by, the state court’s rules and procedures. If requested by a Party, the 
National Arbitration Panel shall request that its interpretation be accepted in the 
form of an amicus curiae brief, and any attorneys’ fees and costs for preparing any 
such filing shall be paid for by the requesting Party. 
3. 
National Disputes involving a Settling State, a Participating Subdivision that has 
enforcement rights pursuant to Section VI.A, and/or Amneal shall be resolved by the National 
Arbitration Panel. 
a. 
National Disputes are disputes that are not addressed by Section 
VI.C, and which are exceptions to Section VI.F.2’s presumption of resolution in 
state courts because they involve issues of interpretation of terms contained in this 
Agreement applicable to all Settling States without reference to a particular state’s 
law. Disputes between a Settling State and any Participating Subdivision shall not 
be considered National Disputes. National Disputes are limited to the following: 
(i) 
the amount of offset and/or credit attributable to Non-
Settling States; 
(ii) 
issues involving the scope and definition of Product; 
(iii) 
interpretation and application of the terms “Covered 
Conduct,” “Released Entities,” and “Released Claims;” 
(iv) 
the failure by Amneal to pay the Annual Remediation 
Payment or the Additional Remediation Amount in a Payment Year, but for 
the avoidance of doubt, disputes between Amneal and a Settling State over 
the amounts owed only to that state that do not affect any other Settling 
State shall not be considered National Disputes; 
(v) 
questions regarding the performance and/or removal of the 
Settlement Fund Administrator; 
(vi) 
disputes involving liability of successor entities; 
(vii) 
disputes that require a determination of the sufficiency of 
participation in order to qualify for Incentive Payments A, BC, or D; 
(viii) disputes involving a Releasor’s compliance with, and the 
appropriate remedy under, Section X.B.4;

38 
 
 
 
(ix) 
disputes requiring the interpretation of Agreement terms that 
are national in scope or impact, which shall mean disputes requiring the 
interpretation of Agreement terms that (i) concretely affect four (4) or more 
Settling States; and (ii) do not turn on unique definitions and interpretations 
under state law; and 
(x) 
any dispute subject to resolution under Section VI.F.2 but 
for which all parties to the dispute agree to arbitration before the National 
Arbitration Panel under the provisions of this Section VI.F.3.  
b. 
The National Arbitration Panel shall be comprised of three (3) 
arbitrators. One (1) arbitrator shall be chosen by Amneal, one (1) arbitrator shall be 
chosen by the Enforcement Committee with due input from Participating 
Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G, and the third arbitrator shall be agreed upon by 
the first two (2) arbitrators. The membership of the National Arbitration Panel is 
intended to remain constant throughout the term of this Agreement, but in the event 
that replacements are required, the retiring arbitrator shall be replaced by the party 
that selected him/her. 
c. 
The National Arbitration Panel shall make reasonable best efforts to 
decide all matters within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days of filing, and in 
no event shall it take longer than one (1) year. 
d. 
The National Arbitration Panel shall conduct all proceedings in a 
reasonably streamlined process consistent with an opportunity for the parties to be 
heard. Issues shall be resolved without the need for live witnesses where feasible 
and with a presumption in favor of remote participation to minimize the burdens on 
the parties. 
e. 
To the extent allowed under state law, a Settling State, a 
Participating Subdivision that has enforcement rights pursuant to Section VI.A, and 
(at any party’s request) the National Arbitration Panel may certify to an appropriate 
state court any question of state law. The National Arbitration Panel shall be bound 
by a final state court determination of such a certified question. The time period for 
the arbitration shall be tolled during the course of the certification process. 
f. 
The arbitrators will give due deference to any authoritative 
interpretation of state law, including any declaratory judgment or similar relief 
obtained by a Settling State, a Participating Subdivision that has enforcement rights 
pursuant to Section VI.A, or Amneal on a state law issue. 
g. 
The decisions of the National Arbitration Panel shall be binding on 
Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, Amneal, and the Settlement Fund 
Administrator. In any proceeding before the National Arbitration Panel involving a 
dispute between a Settling State and Amneal whose resolution could prejudice the

39 
 
 
 
rights of a Participating Subdivision(s) in that Settling State, such Participating 
Subdivision(s) shall be allowed to file a statement of view in the proceeding. 
h. 
Nothing herein shall be construed so as to limit or otherwise restrict 
a Settling State from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in state court to 
protect the health, safety, or welfare of its citizens. 
i. 
Each party shall bear its own costs in any arbitration or court 
proceeding arising under this Section VI. The costs for the arbitrators on the 
National Arbitration Panel shall be divided and paid equally by the disputing sides 
for each individual dispute, e.g., a dispute between Amneal and Settling 
States/Participating Subdivisions shall be split fifty percent (50%) by Amneal and 
fifty percent (50%) by the Settling States/Participating Subdivisions that are parties 
to the dispute; a dispute between a Settling State and a Participating Subdivision 
shall be split fifty percent (50%) by the Settling State that is party to the dispute 
and fifty percent (50%) by any Participating Subdivisions that are parties to the 
dispute. For the avoidance of doubt, Amneal shall not be responsible for the 
National Arbitration Panel costs in disputes that do not concern Amneal. 
4. 
Prior to initiating an action to enforce pursuant to this Section VI.F, the complaining 
party must: 
a. 
Provide written notice to the Enforcement Committee and/or 
Amneal of its complaint, including the provision of the Consent Judgment and/or 
Agreement that the practice appears to violate, as well as the basis for its 
interpretation of the disputed provision. The Enforcement Committee shall 
establish a reasonable process and timeline for obtaining additional information 
from the involved parties; provided, however, that the date the Enforcement 
Committee establishes for obtaining additional information from the parties shall 
not be more than forty-five (45) calendar days following the notice. The 
Enforcement Committee may advise the involved parties of its views on the 
complaint and/or seek to resolve the complaint informally. 
b. 
Wait to commence any enforcement action until thirty (30) calendar 
days after the date that the Enforcement Committee establishes for obtaining 
additional information from the involved parties. 
5. 
If the parties to a dispute cannot agree on the proper forum for resolution of the 
dispute under the provisions of Section VI.F.2 or Section VI.F.3, a committee comprising the 
Enforcement Committee and sufficient representatives of Amneal such that the members of 
the Enforcement Committee have a majority of one (1) member will determine the forum 
where the dispute will be initiated within twenty-eight (28) calendar days of receiving 
notification of the dispute relating to the proper forum. The forum identified by such 
committee shall be the sole forum for litigating the issue of which forum will hear the

40 
 
 
 
substantive dispute, and the committee’s identification of such forum in the first instance shall 
not be entitled to deference by the forum selected. 
G. 
Lien or Encumbrance. To the extent allowed by applicable law, this Settlement 
Agreement shall not be deemed to create a lien or encumbrance against any real property owned 
by Amneal or its affiliates, unless in the event of a default or breach of the payment provisions by 
Amneal. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to limit any remedy of any Settling State or 
Participating Subdivision in the event of a default or breach of this Agreement by Amneal. 
H. 
No Effect. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted to limit the Settling 
States’ Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) or investigative subpoena authority, to the extent such 
authority exists under applicable state law and the CID or investigative subpoena is issued pursuant 
to such authority, and Amneal reserves all of its rights in connection with a CID or investigative 
subpoena issued pursuant to such authority. 
VII. 
Participation by Subdivisions 
A. 
Notice. No later than fifteen (15) calendar days after the Preliminary Agreement 
Date, the Implementation Administrator shall send individual written notice (which may be 
delivered via e-mail or other electronic means and may be combined with distribution of the 
Subdivision Settlement Participation Form) of the opportunity to participate in this Agreement and 
the requirements of participation to all Subdivisions in the Settling States that are (1) Litigating 
Subdivisions or (2) Non-Litigating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G. To the extent a Special 
District is entitled to an allocation for a direct payment through its inclusion in Exhibit G pursuant 
to a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution, 
the Implementation Administrator, with the cooperation of the Settling States shall also send 
individual written notice (which may be delivered via e-mail or other electronic means) of the 
opportunity to participate in this Agreement and the requirements of participation to such Special 
Districts. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the version of Exhibit G used for notice shall be 
the one in place as of the Preliminary Agreement Date. Notice (which may be delivered via e-mail 
or other electronic means) shall also be provided simultaneously to counsel of record for Litigating 
Subdivisions and known counsel for Non-Litigating Subdivisions and Special Districts listed on 
Exhibit G. The costs of the Implementation Administrator shall be paid for by the interest earned 
from the deposit accounts holding the Adjusted Maximum Base Payment for Payment Year 1 for 
Amneal and nothing in this provision shall require Amneal to pay any costs, fees or other amounts 
in excess of the Global Settlement Amount. The Settling States, with the cooperation of Amneal, 
may also provide general notice reasonably calculated to alert Non-Litigating Subdivisions in the 
Settling States to this Agreement, the opportunity to participate in it, and the requirements for 
participation. Such notice may include publication and other standard forms of notification, as well 
as notice to state and county organizations such as the National Association of Counties and the 
National League of Cities. The notice will include that the deadline for becoming an Initial 
Participating Subdivision is the Initial Participation Date. Nothing contained herein shall preclude 
a Settling State from providing further notice to or otherwise contacting any of its Subdivisions 
about becoming a Participating Subdivision, including beginning any of the activities described in 
this paragraph prior to the Preliminary Agreement Date.

41 
 
 
 
B. 
Requirements for Becoming a Participating Subdivision—Non-Litigating 
Subdivisions. A Non-Litigating Subdivision in a Settling State may become a Participating 
Subdivision by returning an executed Subdivision Settlement Participation Form to the 
Implementation Administrator or Settlement Fund Administrator (which may be executed and 
returned by electronic means established by the Implementation Administrator or Settlement Fund 
Administrator) specifying (1) that the Subdivision agrees to the terms of this Agreement pertaining 
to Subdivisions, (2) that the Subdivision releases all Released Claims against all Released Entities, 
(3) that the Subdivision agrees to use monies it receives, if any, from the Settlement Fund pursuant 
to the applicable requirements of Section V; provided, however, that Non-Litigating Subdivisions 
may only use monies originating from the Settlement Fund for purposes that qualify as Opioid 
Remediation, and (4) that the Subdivision submits to the jurisdiction of the court where the 
applicable Consent Judgment is filed for purposes limited to that court's role under this Agreement. 
The required Subdivision Settlement Participation Form is attached as Exhibit K. 
C. 
Requirements 
for 
Becoming 
a 
Participating 
Subdivision—Litigating 
Subdivisions/Later Litigating Subdivisions. A Litigating Subdivision or Later Litigating 
Subdivision in a Settling State may become a Participating Subdivision by returning an executed 
Subdivision Settlement Participation Form to the Implementation Administrator or Settlement 
Fund Administrator (which may be executed and returned by electronic means established by the 
Implementation Administrator or Settlement Fund Administrator) and upon prompt dismissal with 
prejudice of its lawsuit following the Reference Date or the date on which the conditions for 
effectiveness in Section VIII.B have been met, whichever is later. A Settling State may require 
each Litigating Subdivision in that Settling State to specify on the Subdivision Settlement 
Participation Form whether its counsel has waived any contingency fee contract with that 
Participating Subdivision and whether, if eligible, it intends to seek fees pursuant to Exhibit R. 
The Settlement Fund Administrator shall provide reports of this information to the parties upon 
request. A Litigating Subdivision or Later Litigating Subdivision may not become a Participating 
Subdivision after the completion of opening statements in a trial of the lawsuit it brought that 
includes a Released Claim against a Released Entity. 
D. 
Initial Participating Subdivisions. A Subdivision qualifies as an Initial Participating 
Subdivision if it meets the applicable requirements for becoming a Participating Subdivision set 
forth in Section VII.B or Section VII.C by the Initial Participation Date. All Subdivision Settlement 
Participation Forms shall be held in escrow by the Implementation Administrator until the 
Reference Date. If, for any reason, the Agreement does not become effective, all obligations 
created by such forms and releases in them shall be void ab initio and/ all Subdivision Participation 
Agreements shall be returned to Counsel for Litigating Subdivisions or to the Subdivisions not 
represented by counsel or destroyed to the extent that such destruction is not prohibited by then 
existing document preservation obligations. 
E. 
Later Participating Subdivisions. A Subdivision that is not an Initial Participating 
Subdivision may become a Later Participating Subdivision by meeting the applicable requirements 
for becoming a Participating Subdivision set forth in Section VII.B or Section VII.C after the Initial 
Participation Date and by agreeing to be subject to the terms of a State-Subdivision Agreement (if 
any) or any other structure adopted or applicable pursuant to Section V.D or Section V.E. Unless

42 
 
 
 
waived by Amneal, the following provisions govern what a Later Participating Subdivision can 
receive (but do not apply to Initial Participating Subdivisions): 
1. 
A Later Participating Subdivision shall not receive any share of any Annual 
Remediation Payment due before it became a Participating Subdivision. 
2. 
A Later Participating Subdivision that becomes a Participating Subdivision after 
December 15, 2026, shall receive seventy-five percent (75%) of the share of future Base 
Payments or Incentive Payments that it would have received had it become a Later 
Participating Subdivision prior to that date (unless the Later Participating Subdivision is 
subject to Section VII.E.3 or Section VII.E.4). 
3. 
A Later Participating Subdivision that, after the Initial Participation Date, maintains 
a lawsuit for a Released Claim(s) against a Released Entity and has judgment entered against 
it on every such Claim before it became a Participating Subdivision (other than a consensual 
dismissal with prejudice) shall receive fifty percent (50%) of the share of future Base 
Payments or Incentive Payments that it would have received had it become a Later 
Participating Subdivision prior to such judgment; provided, however, that if the Subdivision 
appeals the judgment and the judgment is affirmed with finality before the Subdivision 
becomes a Participating Subdivision, the Subdivision shall not receive any share of any Base 
Payment or Incentive Payments. 
4. 
A Later Participating Subdivision that becomes a Participating Subdivision while a 
Bar or Case-Specific Resolution involving a different Subdivision exists in its state shall 
receive twenty-five percent (25%) of the share of future Base Payments or Incentive Payments 
that it would have received had it become a Later Participating Subdivision without such Bar 
or Case-Specific Resolution. 
F. 
No Increase in Payments. Amounts to be received by Later Participating 
Subdivisions shall not increase the payments due from Amneal. 
G. 
Non-Participating Subdivisions. Non-Participating Subdivisions shall not directly 
receive any portion of any Annual Remediation Payment, including from the State Fund and direct 
distributions from the Remediation Accounts Fund; however, a Settling State may choose to fund 
future Opioid Remediation that indirectly benefits Non-Participating Subdivisions. 
H. 
Unpaid Allocations to Later Participating Subdivisions and Non-Participating 
Subdivisions. Any Base Payment and Incentive Payments allocated pursuant to Section V.D to a 
Later Participating Subdivision or Non-Participating Subdivision that cannot be paid pursuant to 
this Section VII, including the amounts that remain unpaid after the reductions required by Section 
VII.E.2 through Section VII.E.4, will be allocated to the Remediation Accounts Fund for the 
Settling State in which the Subdivision is located, unless those payments are redirected elsewhere 
by a State-Subdivision Agreement or by a Statutory Trust.

43 
 
 
 
VIII. 
Condition to Effectiveness of Agreement and Filing of Consent Judgment 
A. 
Determination to Proceed with Settlement—Settling States.  Following the Initial 
Subdivision Participation Date,   the Enforcement Committee shall determine whether to proceed 
with the Agreement on behalf of the Settling States, and the Settling States shall be bound by the 
determination of the Enforcement Committee. No later than fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the 
Reference Date, the Enforcement Committee  shall provide notice to Amneal   of its decision. If 
the Enforcement Committee elects not to proceed, this Agreement will have no further effect, and 
all releases (including those contained in Subdivision Participation Agreements) and other 
commitments or obligations contained herein or in Subdivision Settlement Participation Forms 
will be void. Within seven (7) calendar days of informing Amneal that there is sufficient 
participation to proceed, the Enforcement Committee will deliver all signatures and releases 
required by the Agreement to be provided by the Settling States to Amneal. 
B. 
Determination to Proceed with Settlement—Amneal.  If the Settling States elect to 
proceed, Amneal will then determine on or before the Reference Date whether there is sufficient 
Eligible State participation, sufficient Subdivision participation, and sufficient resolution of the 
Claims of the Litigating Subdivisions in the Settling States (through participation under Section 
VII, Case-Specific Resolution(s) and Bar(s)) to proceed with this Agreement. The determination 
shall be in the sole discretion of Amneal and may be based on any criteria or factors deemed 
relevant by Amneal. 
C. 
Notice by Amneal. On or before the Reference Date, Amneal shall inform the 
Settling States of its determination pursuant to Section VIII.B. If Amneal determines to proceed, 
the Parties will proceed to file the Consent Judgments and the obligations in the Subdivision 
Settlement Participation Forms will be effective and binding as of the Reference Date. If Amneal 
determines not to proceed, this Agreement will have no further effect, any amounts deposited for 
Payment Year 1, including funds referenced in Section IV.D.1 and Exhibit M, shall revert to 
Amneal, and all releases (including those contained in Subdivision Settlement Participation 
Forms) and other commitments or obligations contained herein or in Subdivision Settlement 
Participation Forms will be void. 
IX. 
Participating Subdivision Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and Additional 
Remediation Amount 
A. 
The Agreement on Subdivision Attorneys’ Fees, Expenses and Costs is set forth in 
Exhibit R and incorporated herein by reference. Agreed terms concerning the State AG Fees are 
set forth in Exhibit S and are incorporated herein by reference. 
B. 
Additional Remediation Amount.   
1. 
Subject to and without exceeding the maximum payment amounts set forth in the 
“Additional Remediation Amount” column of Exhibit M-3 and subject to the reduction 
specified in Section IX.B.2, Amneal shall pay an Additional Remediation Amount to the 
Settling States listed in Exhibit N. Such funds shall be paid, on the schedule set forth in Exhibit 
M-3, as allocated by the Settlement Fund Administrator pursuant to Exhibit N.

44 
 
 
 
2. 
Reduction of Additional Remediation Amount. The amounts owed by Amneal 
pursuant to this Section IX.B shall be reduced by the allocations set forth on Exhibit N for 
Non-Settling States. 
3. 
For the avoidance of doubt, (1) a Settling State that retained outside counsel in 
connection with the investigation of Amneal that receives an Additional Remediation Amount 
may choose to have the Additional Remediation Amount designated to pay the Settling State’s 
outside counsel, and may instruct the Settlement Fund Administrator to pay those funds 
directly to the Settling State’s outside counsel, and (2) Additional Remediation Amount funds, 
including funds designated by a Settling State to pay its outside counsel under this paragraph, 
shall not be subject to allocation as provided in Section V.C through Section V.E. 
C. 
All payments addressed by this Section IX will be made no later than the Payment 
Date for the Payment Year in which they are due, pursuant to Exhibit M-3. 
X. 
Release 
A. 
Scope. As of the Effective Date, the Released Entities are hereby released and 
forever discharged from all of the Releasors’ Released Claims. Each Settling State (for itself and 
its Releasors) and Participating Subdivisions (for itself and its Releasors) hereby absolutely, 
unconditionally, and irrevocably covenants not to bring, file, or claim, or to cause, assist in 
bringing or permit to be brought, filed, or claimed, or to otherwise seek to establish liability for 
any Released Claims against any Released Entity in any forum whatsoever. The releases provided 
for in this Agreement are intended by the Parties to be broad and shall be interpreted so as to give 
the Released Entities the broadest possible bar against any liability relating in any way to Released 
Claims and extend to the full extent of the power of each Settling State and its Attorney General 
to release claims. This Agreement shall be a complete bar to any Released Claim. 
B. 
Claim-Over and Non-Party Settlement. 
1. 
It is the intent of the Parties that: 
a. 
Released Entities should not seek contribution or indemnification 
(other than pursuant to an insurance contract), from other parties for their payment 
obligations under this Agreement; 
b. 
the payments made under this Agreement shall be the sole payments 
made by the Released Entities to the Releasors involving, arising out of, or related 
to Covered Conduct (or conduct that would be Covered Conduct if engaged in by 
a Released Entity); 
c. 
Claims by Releasors against non-Parties should not result in 
additional payments by Released Entities, whether through contribution, 
indemnification or any other means; and

45 
 
 
 
d. 
the Agreement meets the requirements of the Uniform Contribution 
Among Joint Tortfeasors Act and any similar state law or doctrine that reduces or 
discharges a released party's liability to any other parties. 
2. 
The provisions of this Section X.B are intended to be implemented consistent with 
these principles. This Agreement and the releases and dismissals provided for herein are made 
in good faith. 
3. 
No Released Entity shall seek to recover for amounts paid under this Agreement 
based on indemnification, contribution, or any other theory from a manufacturer, pharmacy, 
hospital, pharmacy benefit manager, health insurer, third-party vendor, trade association, 
distributor, or health care practitioner; provided that a Released Entity shall be relieved of this 
prohibition with respect to any entity that asserts a Claim-Over against it. For the avoidance 
of doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit a Released Entity from recovering amounts owed 
pursuant to insurance contracts. 
4. 
To the extent that, on or after the Reference Date, any Releasor enters into a Non-
Party Settlement, including in any bankruptcy case or through any plan of reorganization, the 
Releasor will include (or in the case of a Non-Party Settlement made in connection with a 
bankruptcy case, will cause the debtor to include), unless prohibited from doing so under 
applicable law, in the Non-Party Settlement a prohibition on contribution or indemnity of any 
kind substantially equivalent to that required from Amneal in Section X.B.3, or a release from 
such Non-Released Entity in favor of the Released Entities (in a form equivalent to the 
releases contained in this Agreement) of any Claim-Over. The obligation to obtain the 
prohibition and/or release required by this subsection is a material term of this Agreement. 
5. 
In the event that any Releasor obtains a judgment with respect to Non-Party 
Covered Conduct against a Non-Released Entity that does not contain a prohibition like that 
described in Section X.B.3 or any Releasor files a Non-Party Covered Conduct Claim against 
a Non-Released Entity in bankruptcy or a Releasor is prevented for any reason from obtaining 
a prohibition/release in a Non-Party Settlement as provided in Section X.B.3, and such Non-
Released Entity asserts a Claim-Over against a Released Entity, the Released Entity shall be 
relieved of the prohibition in Section X.B.3 with respect to that Non-Released Entity and that 
Releasor and Amneal shall take the following actions to ensure that the Released Entities do 
not pay more with respect to Covered Conduct to the Releasor or to Non-Released Entities 
than the amounts owed under this Settlement Agreement by Amneal: 
a. 
Amneal shall notify that Releasor of the Claim-Over within sixty 
(60) calendar days of the assertion of the Claim-Over or sixty (60) calendar days of 
the Effective Date of this Settlement Agreement, whichever is later; 
b. 
Amneal and that Releasor shall meet and confer concerning the 
means to hold Released Entities harmless and ensure that they are not required to

46 
 
 
 
pay more with respect to Covered Conduct than the amounts owed by Amneal to 
the Releasor under this Agreement; 
c. 
That Releasor and Amneal shall take steps sufficient and 
permissible under the law of the state of the Releasor to hold Released Entities 
harmless from the Claim-Over and ensure Released Entities are not required to pay 
more with respect to Covered Conduct than the amounts owed by Amneal under 
this Agreement. Such steps may include, where permissible: 
(i) 
Filing of motions to dismiss or such other appropriate 
motion by Amneal or Released Entities, and supported by Releasor, in 
response to any claim filed in litigation or arbitration; 
(ii) 
Reduction of that Releasor’s Claim and any judgment it has 
obtained or may obtain against such Non-Released Entity by whatever 
amount or percentage is necessary to extinguish such Claim-Over under 
applicable law, up to the amount the Releasor has obtained, may obtain, or 
has authority to control from such Non-Released Entity; 
(iii) 
Placement into escrow of funds paid by the Non-Released 
Entities such that those funds are available to satisfy the Claim-Over; 
(iv) 
Return of monies paid by Amneal to the Releasor under this 
Settlement Agreement to permit satisfaction of a judgment against or 
settlement with the Non-Released Entity to satisfy the Claim-Over; 
(v) 
Payment of monies to Amneal by the Releasor to ensure it is 
held harmless from such Claim-Over, up to the amount that Releasor has 
obtained, may obtain, or has authority to control from such Non-Released 
Entity; 
(vi) 
Credit to Amneal under this Agreement to reduce the overall 
amounts to be paid under the Agreement such that it is held harmless from 
the Claim-Over; and 
(vii) 
Such other actions as that Releasor and Amneal may devise 
to hold Amneal harmless from the Claim-Over. 
d. 
The actions of that Releasor and Amneal taken pursuant to 
paragraph (c) must, in combination, ensure Amneal is not required to pay more with 
respect to Covered Conduct than the amounts owed by Amneal to the Releasor 
under this Agreement. 
e. 
In the event of any dispute over the sufficiency of the actions taken 
pursuant to paragraph (c), the Releasor and Amneal may seek review by the 
National Arbitration Panel, provided that, if the parties agree, such dispute may be

47 
 
 
 
heard by the state court where the relevant Consent Judgment was filed. The 
National Arbitration Panel shall have authority to require Releasor to implement a 
remedy that includes one or more of the actions specified in paragraph (c) sufficient 
to hold Released Entities fully harmless. In the event that the Panel’s actions do not 
result in Released Entities being held fully harmless, Amneal shall have a claim for 
breach of this Agreement by Releasor, with the remedy being payment of sufficient 
funds to hold Amneal harmless from the Claim-Over up to the amount the Releasor 
has obtained, may obtain, or has authority to control from such Non-Released 
Entity. For the avoidance of doubt, the prior sentence does not limit or eliminate 
any other remedy that Amneal may have. 
6. 
To the extent that the Claim-Over is based on a contractual indemnity, the 
obligations under Section X.B.4 shall extend solely to a Non-Party Covered Conduct Claim 
against a pharmacy, clinic, hospital or other purchaser, distributor or dispenser of Products, a 
manufacturer that sold Products, a consultant, and/or a pharmacy benefit manager or other 
third-party payor. Amneal shall notify the Settling States, to the extent permitted by applicable 
law, in the event that any of these types of Non-Released Entities asserts a Claim-Over arising 
out of contractual indemnity against it. 
C. 
Indemnification and Contribution Prohibited. No Released Entity shall seek to 
recover for amounts paid under this Agreement based on indemnification, contribution, or any 
other theory, from a manufacturer, pharmacy, hospital, pharmacy benefit manager, health insurer, 
third-party vendor, trade association, distributor, or health care practitioner. For the avoidance of 
doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit a Released Entity from recovering amounts owed pursuant to 
insurance contracts.  
D. 
General Release. In connection with the releases provided for in this Agreement, 
each Settling State (for itself and its Releasors) and Participating Subdivision expressly waives, 
releases, and forever discharges any and all provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law 
of any state or territory of the United States or other jurisdiction, or principle of common law, 
which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to § 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads: 
General Release; extent. A general release does not extend to 
claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect 
to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and 
that if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or 
her settlement with the debtor or released party. 
A Releasor may hereafter discover facts other than or different from those which it knows, 
believes, or assumes to be true with respect to the Released Claims, but each Settling State (for 
itself and its Releasors) and Participating Subdivision (for itself and its Releasors) hereby expressly 
waives and fully, finally, and forever settles, releases and discharges, upon the Effective Date, any 
and all Released Claims that may exist as of such date but which Releasors do not know or suspect 
to exist, whether through ignorance, oversight, error, negligence or through no fault whatsoever,

48 
 
 
 
and which, if known, would materially affect the Settling States’ decision to enter into this 
Agreement or the Participating Subdivisions’ decision to participate in this Agreement. 
E. 
Assigned Interest Waiver. To the extent that any Settling State has any direct or 
indirect interest in any rights of a third-party that is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code as a result 
of a claim arising out of Covered Conduct by way of assignment or otherwise, including as a result 
of being the beneficiary of a trust or other distribution entity, to assert claims against Amneal 
(whether derivatively or otherwise), under any legal or equitable theory, including for 
indemnification, contribution, or subrogation, the Settling State waives the right to assert any such 
claim, or to receive a distribution or any benefit on account of such claim and such claim, 
distribution, or benefit shall be deemed assigned to Amneal. 
F. 
Res Judicata. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to reduce the scope of 
the res judicata or claim preclusive effect that the settlement memorialized in this Agreement, 
and/or any Consent Judgment or other judgment entered on this Agreement, gives rise to under 
applicable law. 
G. 
Representation and Warranty.  The signatories hereto on behalf of their respective 
Settling States and its Participating Subdivisions expressly represent and warrant that they will 
obtain on or before the Effective Date (or have obtained) the authority to settle and release, to the 
maximum extent of the State’s power, all Released Claims of (1) their respective Settling States; 
(2) any of the respective Settling State’s past and present executive departments, state agencies, 
divisions, boards, commissions and instrumentalities with the regulatory authority to enforce state 
and federal controlled substances acts; (3) any of their respective Settling State’s past and present 
executive departments, agencies, divisions, boards, commissions and instrumentalities that have 
the authority to bring Claims related to Covered Conduct seeking money (including abatement 
and/or remediation) or revocation of a pharmaceutical distribution license; and (4) any 
Participating Subdivisions.  For the purposes of clause (3) above, executive departments, agencies, 
divisions, boards, commission, and instrumentalities are those that are under the executive 
authority or direct control of the State’s Governor.  Also, for the purposes of clause (3), a release 
from a State’s Governor as set forth in Exhibit X is sufficient to demonstrate that the appropriate 
releases have been obtained.  
H. 
Effectiveness. The releases set forth in this Agreement shall not be impacted in any 
way by any dispute that exists, has existed, or may later exist between or among the Releasors. 
Nor shall such releases be impacted in any way by any current or future law, regulation, ordinance, 
or court or agency order limiting, seizing, or controlling the distribution or use of the Settlement 
Fund or any portion thereof, or by the enactment of future laws, or by any seizure of the Settlement 
Fund or any portion thereof. 
I. 
Cooperation. Releasors (1) will not encourage any person or entity to bring or 
maintain any Released Claim against any Released Entity and (2) will reasonably cooperate with 
and not oppose any effort by a Released Entity to secure the prompt dismissal of any and all 
Released Claims, including suits brought by non-Releasors based on Released Claims. Releasors 
will meet and confer and make reasonable efforts to resolve any action that is filed by a Subdivision 
against Amneal on or after the date the Preliminary Agreement Date.  This provision shall not

49 
 
 
 
require a Settling State to make any monetary payment or adjustment to allocation or incur other 
obligation. 
J. 
Non-Released Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the definition 
of Released Claims, the Agreement does not waive, release or limit any criminal liability, Claims 
for any outstanding liability under any tax or securities law, Claims against parties who are not 
Released Entities, Claims by private individuals, Claims for Medicaid rebates, Claims asserted, or 
that could be asserted, by any State or Subdivision, related to the causes of action in In re: Generic 
Pharmaceuticals Pricing Antitrust Litigation, in the United States District court for the District of 
Pennsylvania, MDL No. 2724; Connecticut et al v. Aurobindo Pharma USA, Inc. et al., in the 
United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, Case No. 3:16-cv-2056-NPS; 
Connecticut et al. v. Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc., in the United States District Court for the 
District of Connecticut, Case No. 3:19-cv-710-NPS; Connecticut et al v. Sandoz, Inc. et al., in the 
United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, Case No. 3:20-cv-802-NPS; and any 
related action (such excluded claims include, but are not limited to, all antitrust claims and any 
claims related to any non-opioid generic drugs), and any claims arising under the Agreement for 
enforcement of the Agreement  
XI. 
Later Litigating Subdivisions 
A. 
Released Claims against Released Entities. If a Later Litigating Subdivision in a 
Settling State maintains a lawsuit for a Released Claim against a Released Entity after the 
Reference Date, the following shall apply subject to Section XI.B: 
1. 
The Released Entity shall take ordinary and reasonable measures to defend the 
action, including filing a Threshold Motion with respect to the Released Claim. The Released 
Entity shall further notify the Settling State and Settlement Fund Administrator immediately 
upon notice of a Later Litigating Subdivision bringing a lawsuit for a Released Claim and 
shall not oppose a Settling State’s submission in support of the Threshold Motion. Amneal 
shall give the relevant Settling State a reasonable opportunity to extinguish the Released 
Claims without any payment or any other obligations being imposed upon any Released 
Entities (apart from the Global Settlement Amount payable by Amneal under the Agreement 
or the Injunctive Relief Terms incurred by it). The relevant Settling State and Amneal shall 
confer and use reasonable efforts to promptly resolve the lawsuit so that it is dismissed with 
prejudice. Nothing in this subsection creates an obligation for a Settling State to make a 
monetary payment or incur any other obligation to an entity filing a lawsuit. 
2. 
If the lawsuit asserting a Released Claim is resolved with finality on terms requiring 
payment by the Released Entity, Amneal shall receive a dollar-for-dollar offset against 
Incentive Payment D for the amount paid. The offset shall be applied against the relevant 
portion of the Annual Remediation Payments starting in Payment Year 10 and working 
backwards.

50 
 
 
 
3. 
For the avoidance of doubt, any offset pursuant to this Section XI in a Settling State 
that at the time is not eligible for Incentive Payment A shall continue to apply even if the 
Settling State at issue subsequently becomes eligible for Incentive Payment A. 
4. 
“Terms requiring payment” shall mean (i) a final monetary judgment or (ii) a 
settlement; provided that the Released Entity sought the applicable State Attorney General's 
consent to the settlement and such consent was either obtained or unreasonably withheld. 
Should the judgment or settlement resolve claims that are not Released Claims, the offset shall 
be for the Released Claims portion only, which shall be distinguishable in the judgment or 
settlement. 
B. 
Exceptions 
1. 
Section XI.A shall not apply where the Settling State at issue meets the eligibility 
criteria for and is entitled to Incentive Payment A for the Payment Year at issue, except as 
expressly provided therein. 
2. 
Section XI.A shall not apply where the Later Litigating Subdivision seeks less than 
$10 million, or so long as its total claim is reduced to less than $10 million, in the lawsuit for 
a Released Claim at issue. 
C. 
No Effect on Other Provisions. An offset under Section XI.A shall not affect the 
Injunctive Relief Terms or the Consent Judgment. 
D. 
No Effect on Other States. An offset under Section XI.A applicable to one State 
shall not affect the allocation or payment of the Annual Remediation Payment to other Settling 
States. 
E. 
Litigating Subdivisions in Non-Eligible States.  The Settling States will not 
encourage, facilitate, or assist in any manner whatsoever claims for Covered Conduct against 
Amneal in any Settling, Non-Settling, or Non-Eligible State, regardless of whether those claims 
were filed against Amneal prior to, on, or after the Effective Date. 
XII. 
Offset 
A. 
Revoked Bar or Case-Specific Resolution. If Amneal made any Annual 
Remediation Payments that included any incentive payments earned as a result of the existence of 
a Bar or Case-Specific Resolution in a Settling State, and there is subsequently a Revocation Event 
with respect to that Bar or Case-Specific Resolution after the determination of the amount of such 
Annual Remediation Payment, Amneal shall receive a dollar-for-dollar offset against the portion 
of remaining Annual Remediation Payments that would be allocated to that Settling State and its 
Participating Subdivisions. This offset will be calculated as the dollar amount difference between 
(1) the total amount of incentive payments paid by Amneal by virtue of the Bar or Case-Specific 
Resolution subject to the Revocation Event and (2) the total amount of incentive payments that 
would have been due from Amneal during that time had the Bar or Case-Specific Resolution

51 
 
 
 
subject to the Revocation Event not been in effect. The amount of incentive payments that would 
have been due, referenced in clause (2) above, will be calculated one hundred eighty (180) calendar 
days after the Revocation Event; for purposes of calculating the amount of incentive payments that 
would have been due, any relevant Subdivision shall be included as a Participating Subdivision if: 
(1) its Released Claims are extinguished by any subsequent Bar or Case-Specific Resolution in 
effect as of the date of such calculation, or (2) it becomes a Participating Subdivision (in addition 
to all other Participating Subdivisions) prior to the date of such calculation. 
XIII. 
Miscellaneous 
A. 
Population of General Purpose Governments. The population figures for General 
Purpose Governments shall be the published U.S. Census Bureau's population estimates for July 
1, 2019, released May 2020. These population figures shall remain unchanged during the term of 
this Agreement. 
B. 
Population of Special Districts. For any purpose in this Agreement in which the 
population of a Special District is used other than Section IV.H.4.c: (a) School Districts’ population 
will be measured by the number of students enrolled who are eligible under the Individuals with 
Disabilities Education Act (“IDEA”) or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; (b) Health 
Districts’ and Hospital Districts’ population will be measured at twenty-five percent (25%) of 
discharges; and (c) all other Special Districts’ (including Fire Districts’ and Library Districts’) 
population will be measured at ten percent (10%) of the population served.9 For the avoidance of 
doubt, this means that California healthcare districts will be measured at ten percent (10%) of their 
membership. Amneal and the Enforcement Committee shall meet and confer in order to agree on 
data sources for purposes of this Section prior to the Preliminary Agreement Date. 
C. 
Population Associated with Sheriffs. For any purpose in this Agreement in which 
the population associated with a lawsuit by a sheriff is used, the population will be measured at 
twenty percent (20%) of the capacity of the jail(s) operated by the sheriff. 
D. 
No Admission. Amneal does not admit liability or wrongdoing. Neither this 
Agreement nor the Consent Judgments shall be considered, construed or represented to be (1) an 
admission, concession or evidence of liability or wrongdoing or (2) a waiver or any limitation of 
any defense otherwise available to Amneal. 
E. 
Tax Cooperation and Reporting. 
1. 
Upon request by Amneal, the Settling States and Participating Subdivisions agree 
to perform such further acts and to execute and deliver such further documents as may be 
reasonably necessary for Amneal to establish the statements set forth in Section V.F to the 
satisfaction of their tax advisors, their independent financial auditors, the Internal Revenue 
                                                     
 
9 The estimates for counties and parishes were accessed at https://www.census.gov/data/datasets/time-
series/demo/popest/2010s-counties-total.html. The estimates for cities and towns can currently be found at 
https://www.census.gov/data/datasets/time-series/demo/popest/2010s-total-cities-and-towns.html.

52 
 
 
 
Service, or any other governmental authority, including as contemplated by 26 C.F.R § 1.162-
21(b)(3)(ii) and any subsequently proposed or finalized relevant regulations or administrative 
guidance. 
2. 
Without limiting the generality of Section XIII.E.1, each Settling State and 
Participating Subdivision shall cooperate in good faith with Amneal with respect to any tax 
claim, dispute, investigation, audit, examination, contest, litigation, or other proceeding 
relating to this Agreement. 
3. 
Pursuant to 26 C.F.R. § 1.6050X-1(a) and (b), the Designated State, on behalf of 
all Settling States and Participating Subdivisions, shall designate one of its officers or 
employees to act as the “appropriate official” within the meaning of 26 C.F.R. § 1.6050X-
1(f)(1)(ii)(B) (the “Appropriate Official”). The Designated State shall direct and ensure that 
the Appropriate Official timely (a) files (i) at the time this Agreement becomes binding on the 
Parties, an IRS Form 1098-F in the form attached as Exhibit U with respect to Amneal and 
(ii) any legally required forms, returns or amended returns with any applicable governmental 
authority, or any returns requested by Amneal, and (b) provides to Amneal a copy of (i) the 
IRS Form 1098-F filed with respect to Amneal and (ii) any legally required written statement 
pursuant to any applicable law and any other document referred to in clause (a)(ii) above. Any 
such forms, returns, or statements shall be prepared and filed in a manner fully consistent with 
Section V.F. and as set forth in Section XIII.E.4.   
4. 
Any form, return, amended return, or written statement filed or provided pursuant 
to Section XIII.E.3, and any similar document, shall be prepared and filed in a manner 
consistent with reporting the Global Settlement Amount as the “Total amount to be paid” 
pursuant to this Agreement in Box 1 of IRS Form 1098-F and the Compensatory Restitution 
Amount as “Restitution/remediation amount” in Box 3 of IRS Form 1098-F, as reflected in 
the attached Exhibit U. If the Designated State or Appropriate Official shall be required to file 
any form, return, amended return, or written statement contemplated by this Section XIII.E 
other than an IRS Form 1098-F in the form attached as Exhibit U, the Designated State shall 
direct and ensure that the Appropriate Official provides to Amneal a draft of such form, return, 
amended return, or written statement no later than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the due 
date thereof, and shall accept any reasonable revisions from Amneal on the return, amended 
return, or written statement. 
5. 
For the avoidance of doubt, neither Amneal nor the Settling States and Participating 
Subdivisions make any warranty or representation to any Settling State, Participating 
Subdivision, or Releasor as to the tax consequences of the payment of the Compensatory 
Restitution Amount (or any portion thereof). 
F. 
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no 
portion of this Agreement shall provide any rights to, or be enforceable by, any person or entity 
that is not the Settling State or Released Entity. Settling States may not assign or otherwise convey 
any right to enforce any provision of this Agreement.

53 
 
 
 
G. 
Calculation. Any figure or percentage referred to in this Agreement shall be carried 
to seven decimal places. 
H. 
Construction. None of the Parties and no Participating Subdivision shall be 
considered to be the drafter of this Agreement or of any of its provisions for the purpose of any 
statute, case law, or rule of interpretation or construction that would or might cause any provision 
to be construed against the drafter of this Agreement. The headings of the provisions of this 
Agreement are not binding and are for reference only and do not limit, expand, or otherwise affect 
the contents or meaning of this Agreement. 
I. 
Cooperation. Each Party and each Participating Subdivision agrees to use its best 
efforts and to cooperate with the other Parties and Participating Subdivisions to cause this Agreement 
and the Consent Judgments to become effective, to obtain all necessary approvals, consents and 
authorizations, if any, and to execute all documents and to take such other action as may be 
appropriate in connection herewith. Consistent with the foregoing, each Party and each Participating 
Subdivision agrees that it will not directly or indirectly assist or encourage any challenge to this 
Agreement or any Consent Judgment by any other person and will support the integrity and 
enforcement of the terms of this Agreement and the Consent Judgments. 
J. 
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including its exhibits and any other 
attachments, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between and among the Parties and 
Participating Subdivisions relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes (1) all prior 
agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter, whether written or oral and (2) all 
purportedly contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter. 
K. 
Execution. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by different 
signatories on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which 
shall together be one and the same Agreement. One or more counterparts of this Agreement may 
be delivered by facsimile or electronic transmission with the intent that it or they shall constitute 
an original counterpart hereof. One or more counterparts of this Agreement may be signed by 
electronic signature. 
L. 
Good Faith and Voluntary Entry. Each Party warrants and represents that it 
negotiated the terms of this Agreement in good faith. Each of the Parties and Participating 
Subdivisions warrants and represents that it freely and voluntarily entered into this Agreement 
without any degree of duress or compulsion. The Parties and Participating Subdivisions state that 
no promise of any kind or nature whatsoever (other than the written terms of this Agreement) was 
made to them to induce them to enter into this Agreement. 
M. 
Legal Obligations. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as relieving 
Amneal of the obligation to comply with all state and federal laws, regulations or rules, nor shall 
any of the provisions herein be deemed to be permission to engage in any acts or practices 
prohibited by such laws, regulations, or rules.   
N. 
No Prevailing Party. The Parties and Participating Subdivisions each agree that 
they are not the prevailing party in this action, for purposes of any claim for fees, costs, or expenses

54 
 
 
 
as prevailing parties arising under common law or under the terms of any statute, because the 
Parties and Participating Subdivisions have reached a good faith settlement. 
O. 
Waive Challenge. The Parties and Participating Subdivisions each further waive 
any right to challenge or contest the validity of this Agreement on any ground, including, without 
limitation, that any term is unconstitutional or is preempted by, or in conflict with, any current or 
future law. Nothing in the previous sentence shall modify, or be construed to conflict with, Section 
XIII.M. 
P. 
Non-Admissibility. The settlement negotiations resulting in this Agreement have 
been undertaken by the Parties and by certain representatives of the Participating Subdivisions in 
good faith and for settlement purposes only, and no evidence of negotiations or discussions 
underlying this Agreement shall be offered or received in evidence in any action or proceeding for 
any purpose. This Agreement shall not be offered or received in evidence in any action or 
proceeding for any purpose other than in an action or proceeding arising under or relating to this 
Agreement relating to this Agreement or in any litigation or arbitration concerning Amneal’s right 
to coverage under an insurance contract.

construed as a waiver by any other Party. 
S. 
Preservation of Privilege. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any Consent 
Judgment, and no act required to be performed pursuant to this Agreement or any Consent 
Judgment, is intended to constitute, cause, or effect any waiver (in whole or in part) of any 
attorney-client privilege, work product protection, or common interest/joint defense privilege, and 
each Party and Participating Subdivision agrees that it shall not make or cause to be made in any 
forum any assertion to the contrary. 
T. 
Successors.

56 
 
 
 
1. 
This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Amneal and its 
respective successors and assigns. 
2. 
Amneal shall not, in one (1) transaction or a series of related transactions, sell or 
transfer U.S. assets having a fair market value equal to twenty-five percent (25%) or more of 
the consolidated assets of Amneal (other than sales or transfers of inventories, or sales or 
transfers to an entity owned directly or indirectly by Amneal) where the sale or transfer is 
announced after the Reference Date, is not for fair consideration, and would foreseeably and 
unreasonably jeopardize Amneal’s ability to make the payments under this Agreement or its 
obligations regarding Settlement Product under Section XIV following the close of a sale or 
transfer transaction, unless Amneal obtains the acquiror’s agreement that it will be either a 
guarantor of or successor to the percentage of Amneal’s remaining payment obligations under 
this Agreement equal to the percentage of Amneal’s consolidated assets being sold or 
transferred in such transaction; provided, that liens and security interests granted by Amneal 
to its lenders and/or noteholders, and any agent and/or trustee for any lenders and/or 
noteholders, shall not constitute a transfer or sale for purposes of this Section. Percentages 
under this section shall be determined in accordance with United States generally accepted 
accounting principles and as of the date of Amneal most recent publicly filed consolidated 
balance sheet prior to the date of entry into the sale or transfer agreement at issue. This Section 
XIII.U shall be enforceable solely by the Settling States, and any objection under this Section 
XIII.U not raised within sixty (60) calendar days of the announcement of the relevant 
transaction is waived. 
U. 
Modification, Amendment, Alteration. In the event the Plaintiffs’ Executive 
Committee, the Executive Committee of the State Attorneys General, or Amneal concludes prior 
to the Reference Date that technical corrections are required to this Agreement, the Plaintiffs’ 
Executive Committee, the Executive Committee of the State Attorneys General, and Amneal shall 
meet and confer and make such amendments as they agree are appropriate. After the Reference 
Date, any modification, amendment, or alteration of this Agreement by the Parties shall be binding 
only if evidenced in writing signed by Amneal, along with the signature of at least two-thirds of 
those then serving as Attorneys General of the Settling States along with a representation from 
each Attorney General that either: (1) the advisory committee or similar entity established or 
recognized by that Settling State (either pursuant to Section V.E.2.d, by a State-Subdivision 
Agreement, or by statute) voted in favor of the modification, amendment or alteration of this 
Agreement including at least one member appointed by the Participating Subdivisions listed on 
Exhibit G; or (2) in Settling States without any advisory committee, that 50.1% (by population) of 
the Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G expressed approval of the modification, 
amendment, or alteration of this Agreement in a writing. 
V. 
Termination. 
1. 
Unless otherwise agreed to by each of Amneal and the Settling States, this 
Agreement and all of its terms (except Section XIII.P and any other non-admissibility 
provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect) shall be canceled and terminated with 
respect to the Settling State, and the Agreement and all orders issued by the courts in the

57 
 
 
 
Settling State pursuant to the Agreement shall become null and void and of no effect if one or 
more of the following conditions applies: 
a. 
a 
Consent 
Judgment 
approving 
this 
Agreement 
without 
modification of any of the Agreement’s terms has not been entered as to a Settling 
State by a court of competent jurisdiction on or before one hundred eighty (180) 
calendar days after the Effective Date; 
b. 
this Agreement or the Consent Judgment as to that Settling State has 
been disapproved by a court of competent jurisdiction to which it was presented for 
approval and/or entry (or, in the event of an appeal from or review of a decision of 
such a court to approve this Agreement and the Consent Judgment, by the court 
hearing such appeal or conducting such review), and the time to appeal from such 
disapproval has expired, or, in the event of an appeal from such disapproval, the 
appeal has been dismissed or the disapproval has been affirmed by the court of last 
resort to which such appeal has been taken and such dismissal or disapproval has 
become no longer subject to further appeal (including, without limitation, review 
by the United States Supreme Court); or 
2. 
If this Agreement is terminated with respect to a Settling State for whatever reason 
pursuant to Section XIII.V.1, then: 
a. 
an applicable statute of limitation or any similar time requirement 
(excluding any statute of repose) shall be tolled from the date the Settling State 
signed this Agreement until the later of the time permitted by applicable law or for 
one year from the date of such termination, with the effect that Amneal and the 
Settling State shall be in the same position with respect to the statute of limitation 
as they were at the time the Settling State filed its action; and 
b. 
Amneal and the Settling State shall jointly move the relevant court 
of competent jurisdiction for an order reinstating the actions and claims dismissed 
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement governing dismissal, with the effect that 
Amneal and the Settling State shall be in the same position with respect to those 
actions and claims as they were at the time the action or claim was stayed or 
dismissed. 
3. 
Unless Amneal and the Enforcement Committee agree otherwise, this Agreement, 
with the exception of the Injunctive Relief Terms that have their own provisions on duration, 
shall terminate as of the Payment Date for Payment Year 10, provided that Amneal has 
performed its payment and Settlement Product obligations under the Agreement as of that 
date.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section XIII.V.3 or in this Agreement, all 
releases under this Agreement will remain effective despite any termination under this Section 
XIII.W.3.

58 
 
 
 
W. 
Governing Law. Except as (1) otherwise provided in this Agreement or (2) as 
necessary, in the sole judgment of the National Arbitration Panel, to promote uniformity of 
interpretation for matters within the scope of the National Arbitration Panel’s authority, this 
Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the respective laws of the 
Settling State, without regard to the conflict of law rules of such Settling State, that is seeking to 
enforce the Agreement against Amneal or against which Amneal is seeking enforcement. 
Notwithstanding any other provision in this subsection on governing law, any disputes relating to 
the Settlement Fund Escrow shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the law of 
the state where the escrow agent has its primary place of business. 
X. 
Bankruptcy. The following provisions shall apply if Amneal enters bankruptcy and 
(i) the Amneal bankruptcy estate recovers, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 550, any payments made under 
this Agreement, or (ii) this Agreement is deemed executory and is rejected by Amneal pursuant to 
11 U.S.C. § 365: 
1. 
In the event that the both a number of Settling States equal to at least seventy-five 
percent (75%) of the total number of Settling States and Settling States having aggregate State 
Allocation Percentages as set forth on Exhibit F equal to at least seventy-five percent (75%) 
of the total aggregate State Allocation Percentages assigned to all Settling States deem (by 
written notice to Amneal) that the financial obligations of this Agreement have been 
terminated and rendered null and void (except as provided in Section XIII.X.1.a) due to a 
material breach by Amneal, whereupon: 
a. 
all agreements, all concessions, all reductions of Releasing Parties' 
Claims, and all releases and covenants not to sue, contained in this Agreement shall 
immediately and automatically be deemed null and void as to Amneal; the Settling 
States shall be deemed immediately and automatically restored to the same position 
they were in immediately prior to their entry into this Settlement Agreement in 
respect to Amneal and the Settling States shall have the right to assert any and all 
claims against Amneal in the bankruptcy or otherwise without regard to any limits 
or agreements as to the amount of the settlement otherwise provided in this 
Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, (i) all 
reductions of Releasing Parties’ Claims, and all releases and covenants not to sue, 
contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to all persons 
or entities other than Amneal itself; and (ii) in the event the Settling State asserts 
any Released Claim against Amneal after the rejection and/or termination of this 
Agreement as described in this Section XIII.X.1.a and receives a judgment, 
settlement or distribution arising from such Released Claim, then the amount of any 
payments the Settling State has previously received from Amneal under this 
Agreement shall be applied to reduce the amount of any such judgment, settlement 
or distribution (provided that no credit shall be given against any such judgment, 
settlement or distribution for any payment that the Settling State is required to 
disgorge or repay to Amneal’s bankruptcy estate); and

59 
 
 
 
b. 
the Settling States may exercise all rights provided under the federal 
Bankruptcy Code (or other applicable bankruptcy or non-bankruptcy law) with 
respect to their Claims against Amneal subject to all defenses and rights of the 
Amneal. 
Y. 
Waiver. Amneal, for good and valuable consideration the receipt of which is 
acknowledged, hereby (a) waives, foregoes and relinquishes all rights to utilize and/or seek relief 
under any of the following laws of the State of Texas for the restructuring of its debts or liabilities 
related to Released Claims, Claims that would have been Released Claims if they had been brought 
by a Releasor against a Released Entity before the Effective Date, or this Agreement: Tex. Bus. 
Orgs. Code § 10.003 (Contents of Plan of Merger: More Than One Successor) or any other statute 
of Subchapter A of Chapter 10 of Tex. Bus. Orgs. Code to the extent such statute relates to multi-
successor mergers (and/or any other similar laws or statutes in any other state or territory); Tex. 
Bus. Orgs. Code §§ 11.01–11.414 (Winding Up and Termination of Domestic Entity); or Tex. Bus. 
& Com. Code §§ 23.01–23.33 (Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors) (collectively, the “Texas 
Statutes”), and (b) agrees, warrants and represents that it will not file, request or petition for relief 
under the Texas Statutes related to its debts or liabilities related to Released Claims, Claims that 
would have been Released Claims if they had been brought by a Releasor against a Released Entity 
before the Effective Date, or this Agreement, in each case until such time as all of Amneal’s 
payment obligations incurred hereunder are satisfied in full. The foregoing waiver and 
relinquishment includes, without limitation, until such time as all of Amneal’s payment obligations 
incurred hereunder are satisfied in full, Amneal’s rights to execute a divisional merger or 
equivalent transaction or restructuring related to its debts or liabilities related to Released Claims, 
Claims that would have been Released Claims if they had been brought by a Releasor against a 
Released Entity before the Effective Date, or this Agreement that in each case has the intent or 
foreseeable effect of (i) separating material assets from material liabilities and (ii) assigning or 
allocating all or a substantial portion of those liabilities to any subsidiary or affiliate that files for 
relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, or pursuant to which such subsidiary or affiliate 
that files for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code would be assuming or retaining all or 
a substantial portion of those liabilities. 
XIV. 
Settlement Product 
A. The Settlement Product is Naloxone Hydrochloride Nasal Spray (generic Narcan®), a 
medication that counteracts the life-threatening effects of opioid overdose and significantly 
reduces opioid-overdose mortality. 
 
B. For the purposes of this agreement, Amneal has agreed to provide the Settling States 
Settlement Product valued at $177,400,000, which equals 1,419,200 kits of Settlement 
Product, valued at a fixed Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC) of  $125 per kit, allocated 
in accordance with the allocation percentage as reflected in Exhibit F. For the avoidance 
of doubt, if a Settling State does not elect to participate in the settlement, that State’s 
Settlement Product Allocation will not be the responsibility of Amneal and will not be 
transferred to the allocation of other Settling States. Amneal shall cover the cost of the 
Settlement Product distribution set forth in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt,

60 
 
 
 
Participating Subdivisions and Special Districts are not eligible to make a Settlement 
Product election pursuant to this Agreement. 
  
C. Consistent with the Settlement Product Election Form contained in Exhibit D, each Settling 
State shall have the discretion to convert any portion of the Settlement Product allocated 
to the Settling State into a cash value equaling twenty-five percent (25%) of the WAC 
value of the Settling State’s allocated Settlement Product for each Payment Year 7-10. 
Such decision must be made prior to the Settlement Product Election Date; Settling States 
will have no ability to convert any portion of the Settlement Product to Settlement Product 
Cash Conversion Amount following the Settlement Product Election Date. Unless cash 
conversion amounts are specifically addressed in a State-Subdivision Agreement or 
Allocation Statute, a Settling State’s Settlement Product Cash Conversion Amount shall be 
disbursed to the Settling State in the same manner as its Remediation Accounts Fund 
payments are made pursuant to Section V. This cash conversion payment is due on the 
Payment Date of each Payment Year 7-10.. If a Settling State does not elect to receive all 
of its allocation in its initial notice, such Settling State may submit a new or updated 
Settlement Product Election Form in lieu of converting the outstanding portion of 
Settlement Product to cash value and Amneal and the Settling States agree to work in good 
faith to maximize the availability of Settlement Product. 
 
D. A Settling State that has submitted a Settlement Product Election Form may place periodic 
orders for Settlement Product consistent with this Section XIV and Exhibit D. A Settling 
State may request up to twenty-five percent (25%) of its full Settlement Product allocation 
for each Payment Year 7-10. 
 
E. Within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date, each Settling State shall notify Amneal and 
the Settlement Fund Administrator of its Settlement Product election by submitting the 
Settlement Product Election Form reflected in Exhibit D. 
 
F. Settling States that do not make a Settlement Product Election within 30 days of the 
Effective Date shall be deemed to have elected to full Settlement Product and to have 
elected not to convert any portion of the Settlement Product into Settlement Product Cash 
Conversion Amount. If a Settling State elects to receive a partial allocation of Settlement 
Product, the elected portion shall decrease Amneal’s payment in earliest years to later 
years. For example, if a Settling  State has a total allocation of $4,000,000 in settlement 
product (and cash conversion of $1,000,000), and elects to receive $1,500,000 in settlement 
product (and cash conversion deduction of $375,000), Amneal shall make payments to the 
Settling State in the following amounts: (1) Year 7: $0; (2) Year 8: $125,000; (3) Year 9: 
$250,000 and (4) Year 10:  $250,000 for a total amount of $625,000 to the State. 
 
G. In addition to offering Naloxone HCl nasal spray 4mg per this Section and Exhibit D, 
Amneal, at its sole discretion, may also offer Settling States different versions or greater 
amounts of Settlement Product or different products that can be accepted by the Settling 
State in lieu of its full allotment of the Settlement Product or Settlement Product Cash 
Conversion Amount. Distribution and other terms related to such substitute product shall

61 
 
 
 
be set out in Amneal’s offer. Nothing in this subsection changes the terms of this 
Agreement regarding the provision of Settlement Product or the calculation or availability 
of the Settlement Product Cash Conversion Amount.  
 
H. In the event of a Force Majeure Event, Amneal shall promptly provide written notice to the 
Settling States. Amneal and the States shall meet and confer within seven (7) days of such 
written notice to establish a commercially reasonable plan to resolve any inability to supply 
as quickly as reasonably possible, it being understood that, unless otherwise agreed to by 
the Parties, it is Amneal’s obligation to use reasonable efforts which are consistent with 
accepted industry practices to resume performance as soon as practicable under the 
circumstances. 
 
I. Settling States shall not be permitted to return to Amneal any Settlement Product under 
any circumstances other than a recall of the Settlement Product initiated by Amneal or 
FDA, in which case Amneal’s sole obligation shall be to supply the same number of 
Settlement Product units to replace the recalled product. 
 
J. The Parties understand that the provision of Settlement Product constitutes compensatory 
restitution within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A) and that the receipt of Settlement 
Product must be reported on IRS Form 1098-F consistent with subsection XIII.E.
