For the avoidance of doubt, any Liabilities or Losses arising from the Third Party Claims listed on Exhibit B hereto or arising from any other Third Party Claim, in each case to the extent such Liabilities or Losses are based upon branded opioid drugs of the Retained Business that are not Products, are Excluded Liabilities under the MPA for which Teva is entitled to indemnification under Section 12.2(a)(iii) of the MPA. Teva further agrees that it will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Allergan Parties, from, against and in respect of any and all Losses imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the Allergan Parties, whether in respect of third party claims, claims between the Parties, or otherwise, directly or indirectly relating to, arising out of, resulting from, based upon the underlying facts of, with respect to or by reason of the Teva Agreed Liabilities. Teva shall have 90 days from the Effective Date to notify Allergan that it desires to defend Allergan against any of the matters listed on Exhibit A hereto in accordance with the terms of Section 12.4 of the MPA. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, (i) Allergan shall be responsible for the defense of Third Party Claims involving opioid drugs to the extent such Third Party Claims are based upon branded opioid drugs of the Retained Business that are not Products and (ii) Teva shall be responsible for the defense of Third Party Claims involving opioid drugs to the extent such Third Party Claims are based upon generic opioid drugs that are Products. In the case of Third Party Claims that involve both (i) branded opioid drugs of the Retained Business that are not Products and (ii) generic opioid drugs that are Products, the Parties shall (x) each be responsible for the defense of such Third Party Claims in accordance with the immediately prior sentence and (y) cooperate with each other to enable the proper and adequate defense of such Third Party Claim. Each Party further agrees to provide the other Party by no later than February 28, 2018 a supplemental list which includes all additional known Third Party Claims based upon opioid drugs received by such Party on or before February 25, 2018 (“Supplemental Opioid Case List”), which shall be in substantially the same format as Exhibit B; any Third Party Claims appearing on Exhibit B (or the Supplemental Opioid Case List) shall be deemed to have been notified by each Party in compliance with Section 12.4 of the MPA. On or before the first Business Day of each month beginning after March 31, 2018, each Party shall provide the other Party with a list of additional Third Party Claims based upon opioid drugs that have been filed and served upon the Party on or prior to the third to last Business Day of the prior month (“Monthly Opioid |
3
Case List”). The Monthly Opioid Case List shall be in substantially the same format as Exhibit B and the Supplemental Opioid Case List, and each Party may request a copy of a complaint listed thereon. The Parties’ respective rights and obligations pursuant to Section 12.4 of the MPA shall otherwise remain unchanged, including but not limited to the Parties’ obligations to cooperate following the date hereof to ensure the proper and adequate defense of a Third Party Claim. |

9. | Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. |
10. | Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim relating to the interpretation or construction of Sections 4 or 5 of this Agreement, or to the determination of whether a claim for indemnification made by a Party under Sections 12.2 or 12.3 of the MPA is, in fact, subject to indemnification under the MPA, shall be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”) Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration (“Rules”) as in effect on the date of the Agreement, or such other rules and procedures as the Parties may agree. The arbitration will be conducted before a panel of three arbitrators, to be selected in accordance with the screened selection process provided in the Rules.

7
actual violations of competition or antitrust Laws in the branded drug market involving products of the Retained Business that are not Products (other than any such violation of competition or antitrust Laws relating to any litigation settlement agreement between Allergan and Teva (or between their respective Affiliates)), shall be subject to a rebuttable presumption by the arbitrators that such claims are subject to indemnification by Allergan under the MPA. In the event the arbitrators determine that the rebuttable presumption is inapplicable, the arbitrators will then proceed to determine whether the claim for indemnification is subject to indemnification under the MPA. Any award issued by the arbitrators shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties hereto and shall constitute an arbitral award upon which a judgment may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The prevailing party in any arbitration conducted under this provision will be entitled to an award of all fees, costs and expenses of the arbitrators and the arbitration (including, for the avoidance of doubt, reasonable attorneys’ fees). |

Either of the Parties may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement if such Party receives a subpoena or other process or order to produce this Agreement, provided that such Party shall, prior to any disclosure to any third party, promptly notify the other Parties to this Agreement so that each Party has a reasonable opportunity to respond to such subpoena, process or order.

The Party objecting shall have the burden of defending against such subpoena, process or order. The Party receiving the subpoena, process or order shall be entitled to comply with it, except to the extent that any other Party is successful in obtaining an order modifying or quashing it. |
16. | Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the Parties with regard to the subject hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations, representations or agreements, written or oral, with respect to such subject matter; provided, however, that nothing herein shall amend, modify, or supersede the Tax Settlement and Resolution Agreement dated October 15, 2017, which the Parties intend to remain in full force and effect. |
17. | Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or contrary to public policy, such term or provision shall be modified to the extent necessary to be valid and enforceable and shall be enforced as modified; provided, however, that if no modification is possible such provision shall be deemed stricken from this Agreement. In any case, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. |
18. | No Waiver. Any waiver of any Party’s rights under this Agreement is only effective if in writing signed by the Party to be charged or its duly authorized representative, and any such waiver shall only be effective for the specific matter waived and shall not be deemed to apply to any other conduct, provision or other matter. |
19. | No Assignment. The Parties agree that they have not, and will not, sell, transfer or assign, or purport to sell, transfer or assign, any Claim or interest in any claim that is the subject of the releases in this Agreement. |
20. | Allocation of Global Purchase Price. Within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date, Allergan shall deliver to Teva the final allocation of the Global Purchase Price (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be reduced by the entire amount of the Settlement Payment) among the Acquired Assets (the “Final PPA”).
