Reference is hereby made to the arrangement agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Arrangement Agreement”), between Patheon Inc. (the “Company”), a corporation existing under the laws of Canada, and JLL/Delta Patheon Holdings, L.P. (the “Purchaser”), an exempt limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Arrangement Agreement.
| 1. | Guarantee |
For value received, and to induce the Company to enter into the Arrangement Agreement, JLL Partners Fund VI, L.P. (the “Guarantor”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Company, as solidary co-debtor with the Purchaser and as primary obligor and not merely as surety, but only up to the JLL Cap (as defined below), the due and punctual payment when due or required of the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the monetary obligations of the Purchaser solely (a) under Section 8.2(4) [Purchaser Fee] of the Arrangement Agreement, and (b) if (I) the Arrangement Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2(1)(a), 7.2(1)(b)(ii) or 7.2(1)(b)(iii) of the Arrangement Agreement, then (II) under Section 2.4(6) [Indemnification for Purchaser Misrepresentation in Circular], Section 2.8(1) [Amendment to Plan of Arrangement], Section 4.6(2) [Financing] and Section 4.10(5) [Expense Reimbursement and Indemnification for Pre-Acquisition Reorganization] of the Arrangement Agreement (such guaranteed obligations being collectively referred to herein as the “Obligations”); provided that in no event shall the Guarantor’s aggregate liability hereunder exceed (i) (U.S.) $25,120 million or (ii) solely in circumstances where the Purchaser Fee is payable as a result of the condition in Section 6.2(3)(v) of the Arrangement Agreement not having been satisfied or waived by the Purchaser, (U.S. $12,587 million (such amount, as applicable, the “JLL Cap”).
The foregoing guarantee of payment of the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations (the “Guarantee”) is an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing guarantee up to the JLL Cap, and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the Company first attempt to collect the Obligations from the Purchaser or the Other Guarantor (as defined below) or resort to any security or other means of collecting payment. If the Purchaser has not made payment of any Obligations, which may be due and owing under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder (as limited by the JLL Cap) shall become immediately due and payable to the Company.
The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) concurrently with the delivery hereof the Company is entering into that certain Guarantee Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by DSM (the “Other Guarantor” and, together with the Guarantor, the “Guarantors”) in favor of the Company (the “Other Guarantee”), pursuant to which the Other Guarantor has, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, guaranteed payment by the Purchaser of the Other Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion (as defined in the Other Guarantee) of the Obligations, (b) the Guarantor and the Other Guarantor have each, severally and not jointly and severally, guaranteed,
on the terms and conditions of this Guarantee, the Other Guarantee (as applicable) and the Arrangement Agreement, its respective Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations, (c) the Guarantor shall in no event be required to pay an amount greater than the JLL Cap under this Guarantee and shall have no obligation or liability to any Person relating to, arising out of or in connection with the Other Guarantee, and subject to Section 7 neither the Guarantor nor any Affiliate of the Guarantor shall have any obligation or liability to any Person relating to, in respect of, arising out of or in connection with, this Guarantee and the Obligations, other than as expressly set forth herein, and (d) the Guarantor shall only be required to pay its Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations, subject to the JLL Cap. The Guarantor’s “Pro Rata Portion” of the Obligations shall be determined by multiplying the amount of such Obligations by fifty-one percent (51%).
The failure by the Other Guarantor to satisfy, or the satisfaction by the Other Guarantor of, its obligations under the Other Guarantee shall not relieve the Guarantor of its obligations hereunder. The Company may at any time and from time to time, without notice to or further consent of either the Guarantor or the Other Guarantor, extend the time of payment of any Obligation, and may also make any agreement with the Purchaser or one or both Guarantors for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement between the Company, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, or any other Person without in any way impairing or affecting this Guarantee.
All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds. Subject to the JLL Cap, the Guarantor promises and undertakes to make all payments hereunder free and clear of any deduction, offset, defense, claim or counterclaim of any kind (other than defenses to the payment of the Obligations that are available to the Purchaser under the Arrangement Agreement).
The Guarantor hereby waives (a) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance of this Guarantee and notice of its obligations hereunder and waives presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of dishonour, non-performance, default or non-payment of the Obligations, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate the Obligations and any other notice to the Guarantor, and the Company shall not be obligated to file any suit or take any action, or provide any notice to, the Purchaser, the Guarantors, or others, except as expressly provided in the Arrangement Agreement or in this Guarantee, including without limitation, in the event that the Purchaser becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar Proceeding, and the failure of the Company to so file shall not affect the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder; and (b) all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of the Purchaser, a Guarantor or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, and all suretyship defenses generally, other than defenses that are available to the Purchaser under the Arrangement Agreement. The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits and after the advice of counsel.
The Obligations, and each of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Purchaser and the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor agrees that the obligation of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure or delay of the Company to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Purchaser or the Other Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the Obligations or the transactions contemplated in the Arrangement Agreement; (ii) the addition, substitution or release of the Other Guarantor or any other Person; (iii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or any
extensions or renewals of, the Obligations; (iv) any amendments, compromises, rescissions, waivers, supplements or modifications of the Arrangement Agreement, including, for greater certainty, any schedule thereto, or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Obligations; (v) the adequacy of any other means available to the Company to obtain payment of the Obligations; (vi) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which the Guarantor, the Other Guarantor or the Purchaser may have at any time against the Purchaser, the Other Guarantor, the Company or any other Person, whether in connection with any Obligation or otherwise; (vii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar Proceeding affecting the Purchaser, a Guarantor, the Company or any other Person; (viii) any change in the existence, structure or ownership of the Purchaser, a Guarantor, the Company or any other Person; (ix) any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any Law which would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Company; (x) any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of the Purchaser’s capacity or ability to enter into or perform its obligations under the Arrangement Agreement, or the enforceability of the Obligations or the Arrangement Agreement against the Purchaser; or (xi) any other act or omission that might in any way or to any extent vary the risk of a Guarantor or otherwise operate as a release or discharge or suretyship defense of a Guarantor, all of which actions or omissions may be done without notice to the Guarantor. Notwithstanding anything in this Guarantee to the contrary, the Company hereby agrees that (i) to the extent the Purchaser is relieved of any of its obligations under the Arrangement Agreement that are guaranteed by the Guarantor as part of the Obligations, the Guarantor shall be similarly relieved of its related Obligations under this Guarantee and (ii) the Guarantor shall have all defenses to the payment of its obligations under this Guarantee (which in any event shall be subject to the JLL Cap) that would be available to the Purchaser under the Arrangement Agreement with respect to the Obligations, as well as any defenses in respect of any fraud or willful misconduct of the Company hereunder or any breach by the Company of any of the terms or provisions hereof.
| 2. | Limitations and Exclusive Remedies |
The obligation of the Guarantor hereunder is limited and shall in no way require the payment by the Guarantor of an amount in excess of the JLL Cap and the Guarantor shall not have any obligation or liability to any Person relating to, arising out of or in connection with this Guarantee other than as expressly set forth herein. The Company acknowledges that, subject to Sections 4 and 5 hereof, payment in full by the Guarantor to the Company of an amount equal to the JLL Cap shall constitute satisfaction in full of the Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Obligations. Subject to Sections 4 and 5 hereof, upon payment in full of the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations owing to the Company, the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Company against the Purchaser in respect of such payment. However, the Guarantor may not exercise any right of subrogation as to the Purchaser or seek any recovery from the Other Guarantor in respect of payments made hereunder until the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations have been satisfied in full. In addition, the Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Purchaser that arise from the existence, payment, performance, or enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under or in respect of this Guarantee, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Company against the Purchaser, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Purchaser, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, and the Guarantor shall not exercise any such rights unless and until all amounts payable by the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall have been paid in full in immediately available funds. If any amount is paid to the Guarantor in violation of either of the immediately preceding two sentences at any time prior to the payment in full to the Company in cash of the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations, such amount shall be received and held for the benefit of the Company, shall be segregated from other property and funds of the Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to
the Company in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, whether matured or unmatured, or to be held as collateral for any Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guarantee thereafter existing.
Subject to Section 7, the Company’s remedies against the Guarantor hereunder shall be, and are intended to be, the sole and exclusive direct or indirect remedies available to the Company against the Guarantor and any of its former, current or future direct or indirect equityholders, controlling Persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates (other than the Purchaser), members, managers, general or limited partners or any former, current or future direct or indirect equityholders, controlling Persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates (other than the Purchaser), members, managers, general or limited partners of the foregoing Persons (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Parties”) in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, related to or in connection with, the Arrangement Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, including in the event the Purchaser breaches its obligations under the Arrangement Agreement.
| 3. | Representations, Warranties and Covenants |
As of the date hereof, the Guarantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as set forth below and acknowledges and agrees that the Company is relying upon such representations, warranties and covenants in connection with the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement:

| (c) | the Guarantor has sufficient undrawn commitments from its partners to pay and perform its obligations under this Guarantee in full, and all such commitments necessary for the Guarantor to fulfill its obligations under this Guarantee in full shall continue to be available to the Guarantor for so long as this Guarantee shall remain in effect in accordance with Section 4 hereof; |

The Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations that has been received by or for the account of the Company is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guarantee shall terminate and the Guarantor shall have no further obligation under this Guarantee as of the earliest of (a) the occurrence of the Effective Time; (b) the six-month anniversary of the date of termination of the Arrangement Agreement, unless a claim hereunder has been made prior to such date; or (c) satisfaction in full by the Guarantor of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company, directly or indirectly, or any of its Subsidiaries asserts in any Proceeding that the provisions of Section 5 hereof or this Section 4 are illegal, invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, then (i) the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall terminate ab initio and be null and void, (ii) if Guarantor has previously made any payments under this Guarantee, it shall be entitled to recover such payments and (iii) neither the Guarantor nor any of its affiliates shall have any liability to the Company with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement or under this Guarantee.

Non-Recourse Party) under and to the extent provided in this Guarantee or from the Other Guarantor under and to the extent provided in the Other Guarantee, for claims against the Guarantor with respect to the right of the Company to enforce the rights of the Purchaser under the Equity Commitment Letter solely to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter and Section 8.4 of the Arrangement Agreement and rights against the Purchaser under the Arrangement Agreement. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to institute, any Proceeding or bring any other claim arising under, or in connection with, the Arrangement Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or otherwise relating thereto, against the Guarantor or any Non-Recourse Party except claims to recover the Guarantor’s Pro Rata Portion of the Obligations against the Guarantor under this Guarantee (subject to the limitations described herein), claims to recover its Pro Rata Portion (as defined in the Other Guarantee) of the Obligations from the Other Guarantor under the Other Guarantee (subject to the limitations described therein), claims with respect to the right of the Company to enforce the rights of JLL Holdco (as defined in the Equity Commitment Letter) and/or the Guarantor under the Equity Commitment Letter (unless the Guarantor has paid the Company an amount equal to the JLL Cap pursuant to this Guarantee) solely to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter and Section 8.4 of the Arrangement Agreement and claims against the Purchaser under the Arrangement Agreement.

Any term or provision of this Guarantee that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or
the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction, provided, however, that this Guarantee may not be enforced without giving effect to the limit on the liability of the Guarantor described in the first paragraph of Section 1 hereof.
