(b) Investigation of Non-Conforming BC Parenteral Meloxicam and Finished Meloxicam. Alkermes shall cooperate with Recro, in accordance with the Quality Agreement, in investigating any potential non-conforming Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, provided to Recro in connection with the Clinical Requirements and/or the Requirements. If Alkermes and Recro disagree as to whether any such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, meets the applicable Specifications, the matter shall be submitted to an independent testing laboratory, acceptable to both Parties, to determine whether the Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, conformed or did not conform to the applicable Specifications and the test results obtained from such laboratory shall be final and binding upon both Parties. Alkermes shall promptly send a portion of its retained sample of any alleged non-conforming Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, to both (i) Recro for its internal testing and review purposes; and (ii) the independent testing laboratory solely for use in accordance with this Section 6.4(b). In all events, Alkermes may reduce the portions of the retained samples to be sent to Recro and the independent testing laboratory in accordance with the previous sentence as necessary for Alkermes to retain a sufficient amount of each such retained sample for Alkermes to conduct its own testing. In testing the quality control sample, the independent testing laboratory shall use the Approved Methods , which methods shall have been transferred from Alkermes to such independent testing laboratory at Recro’s cost in accordance with a transfer protocol agreed upon by the Parties. The fees and expenses of such testing shall be borne by the Party whose judgment of whether the Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, met the applicable Specifications differs from that of the independent testing laboratory. Alkermes agrees to keep, true, accurate and complete records of all retained samples of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, and the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, in accordance with its record retention policies; copies of such records shall be promptly provided to Recro and its representatives upon request.

(c) Latent Defects. If, within [***] after Recro’s acceptance of a Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, for the Clinical Requirements and/or the Requirements, Recro discovers a Latent Defect that existed in such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, on or before Recro’s acceptance of such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, Recro shall notify Alkermes immediately of such discovery, and Recro shall have the right to reject such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, by giving written notice to Alkermes specifying the deviation of such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, from the applicable Specifications; provided, however, that if Alkermes disagrees with Recro’s determination that a Latent Defect exists or that the Latent Defect existed in such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, on or before Recro’s acceptance of the same, then Alkermes shall so notify Recro within [***] after receiving Recro’s notification about the Latent Defect, and in such case, a portion of Alkermes’ retained samples of such Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, will be submitted for

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***]

testing to an independent testing laboratory, acceptable to both Parties, whose determination of compliance or non-compliance of the Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, with the applicable Specifications, and the cause thereof, if non-compliant, shall be binding upon the Parties. In all events, Alkermes may reduce the portions of the retained samples to be sent to the independent testing laboratory in accordance with the previous sentence as necessary for Alkermes to retain a sufficient amount of each such retained sample for Alkermes to conduct its own testing. In testing the samples of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, the independent testing laboratory shall use the Approved Methods, which methods shall have been transferred from Recro, at Recro’s cost, to such independent testing laboratory in accordance with a transfer protocol agreed upon by the Parties. Recro shall bear the fees and expenses of such testing, unless the independent testing laboratory determines that the non-compliance is due solely to the negligence or willful misconduct of Alkermes in which case Alkermes shall bear such fees and expenses. Alkermes agrees to keep, true, accurate and complete records of all retained samples of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, and Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, in accordance with its record retention policies; copies of such records shall be promptly provided to Recro and its representatives upon request.

(d) Replacement of BC Parenteral Meloxicam and Finished Meloxicam. Regardless of whether Alkermes agrees or disagrees with Recro’s determination that any Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, does not meet the applicable Specifications, Alkermes shall, at Recro’s request, use commercially reasonable efforts to Manufacture replacement BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or Finished Meloxicam, as applicable, in substitution for the potentially non-conforming BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or Finished Meloxicam. Such replacement of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or Finished Meloxicam, shall be sold by Alkermes and purchased by Recro in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, as Recro may direct, as soon as reasonably possible. In the event that any Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, does not meet the applicable Specifications, including in the case of a Latent Defect determined by the Parties and in the case of the independent testing laboratory determines that the original Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, did not comply with the applicable Specifications, then Alkermes shall render a credit to Recro for such original Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, [***] (but only if Recro has already paid for the original Batch). In the case of a Latent Defect, if the Parties determine or the independent testing laboratory determines that the original Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or the Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom, did comply with the applicable Specifications at the time of shipment or that any non-compliance was discoverable upon testing permitted by Section 6.4(a), then Recro will pay [***], if it has not done so already. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement in the contrary, (i) this Section 6.4(d) sets forth Recro’s sole remedies in the event that any Batch of BC Parenteral Meloxicam, or Finished Meloxicam, as applicable, does not meet the applicable Specifications and (ii) failure of BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished Meloxicam to meet the applicable Specifications shall not be grounds for termination pursuant to Section 10.3(a).

Alkermes hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Recro, its Sublicensees, and their respective employees, directors, agents and contractors, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns and representatives (the “Recro Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all Losses to the extent arising out of or resulting from any material breach of this Agreement by Alkermes. Third Party claims, suits, actions and demands subject to this Section 11.1(b) shall not include any claims, suits, actions or demands asserted by any Affiliate or Sublicensee of Recro.

(c) Procedure. If any Person (each, an “Indemnitee”) intends to claim indemnification under this Section 11.1, the Indemnitee shall notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing promptly upon becoming aware of any demand, claim, action or proceeding that may result in Losses (each, a “Claim”) (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnitee to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice). The Indemnitor shall be entitled, by delivery of written notice to the Indemnitee within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of a Claim, to assume and control the defense of such Claim at its own expense with counsel selected by the Indemnitor and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided that the Indemnitor shall only be entitled to undertake, conduct and control such settlement or defense if it acknowledges, in writing, to the Indemnitee, its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to the terms and subject to the limitations of this Article 11.

If the Indemnitor does not assume the defense and control of any Claim pursuant to this Section 11.1(c), the Indemnitee shall be entitled to assume and control such defense through counsel of its own choice, and the reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with such defense shall be considered Losses hereunder with respect to the subject matter of such claim, indemnifiable to the extent provided in this Article 11. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11.1(c) to the contrary, no Indemnitee shall be required to waive a conflict of interest under any applicable rules of professional ethics or responsibility if such waiver would be required for a single law firm to defend both the Indemnitor and one or more Indemnitees. In such case, the Indemnitor shall provide a defense of the affected Indemnitees through a separate law firm reasonably acceptable to the affected Indemnitees at the Indemnitor’s expense. The Indemnitee shall not settle or compromise any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitor shall not settle or compromise any Claim in any manner which would have an adverse effect on the Indemnitee’s interests, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor at the Indemnitor’s expense and shall make available to the Indemnitor all pertinent information under the control of the Indemnitee, which information shall be the Confidential Information of the Indemnitee.

(a) The Parties shall refrain from, either alone or in conjunction with any other Person, or directly or indirectly through their Affiliates or Representatives, disclosing to any other Person, or using in any manner, any confidential, proprietary or secret information (“Confidential Information”) of any other Party or such Party’s Affiliates; provided that the foregoing obligations of confidentiality and non-use will not apply to any Confidential Information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain and other than through any act or omission of the foregoing Persons or their Affiliates in breach of this Agreement, the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Intellectual Property Transfer and License Agreement or the IP License Agreement, (ii) is disclosed after the date hereof to the foregoing Persons or their Affiliates or Representatives on a non-confidential basis by a Third Party that is not subject to an obligation of confidentiality with respect to such Confidential Information, and (iii) is independently discovered or developed by the foregoing Persons or their Affiliates without the aid, application, or use of such Confidential Information. For clarity, the Parties agrees that the terms of this Agreement shall be treated as Confidential Information of both Parties, and thus may be disclosed only as permitted by Sections 12.1(b) and 12.1(c) below.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 12.1(a), a Party may disclose the Confidential Information of the other Party in order to comply with (i) applicable non-patent Law (including any securities law or regulation or the rules of a securities exchange); (ii) a request or requirement by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigation demand or similar process or a formal request from a regulatory examiner, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel, such disclosure is necessary for such compliance (an “External Demand”); and (iii) to its Affiliates, and potential and actual acquirers, merger partners, investors, investment bankers or lenders and their respective counsels and advisors; provided that, (A) with regard to disclosure under clause (ii), prior to making such disclosure, the Party subject to such demand or request shall (x) immediately notify the other Party of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such External Demand, (y) consult with the other Party on the availability of taking legally available steps to resist or narrow such request or disclosure, and (z) assist the other Party, at the other Party’s expense, in seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy to the extent available under the circumstances and (B) with regard to disclosure under clause (iii), prior to making such disclosure, such entities are bound by commercially reasonable obligations of confidentiality with respect to the use and disclosure of such Confidential Information.

(c) The Parties acknowledge that either or both Parties may be obligated to make filings (including, but not limited to, the filing of a copy of this Agreement) with the SEC or other Governmental Entity. Each Party shall be entitled to make such required filings, provided that it requests confidential treatment of at least the financial terms and sensitive technical terms of this Agreement to the extent such confidential treatment is reasonably available to such Party. In the event of any such filing of this Agreement, the Party making such filing shall provide notice to the other Party with a copy of such disclosure and, if

applicable, a copy of this Agreement marked to show provisions for which such Party intends to seek confidential treatment not less than five (5) Business Days prior to such filing (and any revisions to such portions of the proposed filing a reasonable time prior to the filing thereof), and shall give good faith consideration to the other Party’s comments thereon to the extent consistent with the legal requirements. No such notice shall be required under this Section 12.1(c) if the substance of the description of or reference to this Agreement contained in the proposed filing has been included in any previous filing made by either Party or otherwise approved by the other Party

(d) The Parties acknowledge that the obligations of confidentiality set forth in this Section 12.1 shall be in addition to, and shall not amend, modify or otherwise limit, any obligations of confidentiality or non-disclosure as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

13.5 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by a Party, by operation of law or otherwise, without the express written consent of the other Party (which consent may not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld); provided, however, that (a) a Party may assign, mortgage, charge or dispose of any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party in the event of a merger, sale or similar transaction involving all or substantially all of its assets, provided that doing so does not add any obligations hereunder and (b) either Party may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate.

13.6 Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person not a party to this Agreement (and their successors and assigns) any rights or remedies hereunder.

13.7 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought. Each Party may, only by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by the other Party with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such other Party to be performed or complied with. The waiver by a Party of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

13.8 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, may occur in the event that Alkermes does not perform any provision of this Agreement with respect to supply of Clinical Requirements in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches by Alkemres of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***]

HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE

COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

Agreement with respet to the supply of Clinical Requirements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement with respect thereto, Recro shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Alkermes with respect to the supply of Clinical Requirements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof with respect thereto, in addition to any other remedy to which Recro is entitled in law or in equity; but, in each case, only for so long as is necessary for the Parties to transfer the supply of Clinical Requirements to a Third Party that is reasonably satisfactory to Recro in accordance with Section 10.4(b). Alkermes shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief sought by Recro in accordance with this Section 13.8 on the basis that Recro has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.

13.9 Interpretation; Absence of Presumption. For the purposes of this Agreement, (i) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa, and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the context requires; (ii) references to the terms Article, Section, and Exhibit are references to the Articles, Sections and Exhibits to this Agreement unless otherwise specified; (iii) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto; (iv) references to “$” or cash shall mean U.S. dollars; (v) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean “including without limitation,” unless otherwise specified; (vi) the word “or” shall not be exclusive; (vii) references to “written” or “in writing” include in electronic form; (viii) provisions shall apply, when appropriate, to successive events and transactions; (ix) each Party has participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and if an ambiguity or question of interpretation should arise, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening a Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions in this Agreement; (x) a reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns; (xi) any reference to “days” shall mean calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified; and (xii) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end at the close of business on the next succeeding Business Day.

13.10 Headings; Definitions. The Section and Article headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

13.11 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement (or portions thereof) shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to a Party. If any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) shall be held to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable. Upon a determination that any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is invalid, void or unenforceable, the Parties shall

COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

13.12 Force Majeure.

(a) Alkermes shall notify Recro of any circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Alkermes including, but not limited to, war, insurrection, riot, civil commotion, acts of terrorism, act of God, market closure (which is not in the ordinary course of business), fire, water damage, explosion, mechanical breakdown, any law, decree, regulation or order of any government or governmental body (including any court or tribunal), any material interruption in telecommunications, Internet or utilities services that prevents, hinder or delays Alkermes from performing its obligations under this Agreement (a “Force Majeure Event”).

(b) In the event that Alkermes is prevented, hindered or delayed from performing its obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, due to a Force Majeure Event, then (i) the affected provisions and/or other requirements of this Agreement shall be suspended to the extent necessary during the period of such disability, and (ii) Alkermes shall have no liability to Recro or any other party in connection with such suspension. Alkermes shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to resume full performance of this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable following the conclusion of the Force Majeure Event. From the commencement and during the continuance of a Force Majeure Event, Recro may replace, at its sole expense, any affected Service by providing such Service internally or engaging a Third Party to provide such Service and Alkermes shall reasonably cooperate with such efforts.

13.13 Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to do and perform all such further acts and things and will execute and deliver such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents necessary, or that the other Party may deem advisable, in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and to evidence, perfect or otherwise confirm its rights hereunder.

13.14 Relationship of the Parties. Each Party is an independent contractor under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein is intended or is to be construed so as to constitute the Parties as partners, agents or joint venturers. Neither Party will have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any contract, agreement or undertaking with any Third Party. There are no express or implied Third Party beneficiaries hereunder (except for purposes of Section 11.1, the Alkermes Indemnitees and the Recro Indemnitees).

13.15 Performance by Affiliates and Subcontractors. Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any right hereunder through any of its Affiliates, provided that notice is given to the other Party in advance. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any

obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate. In addition, Alkermes reserves the right to employ subcontractors from time-to-time to undertake certain activities related to the Services as approved by Recro, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Recro hereby acknowledges and agrees that Patheon Italy is an approved subcontractor. All subcontractors will be qualified by Alkermes in a manner consistent with the Quality Agreement. All subcontractors will be held under obligations of confidentiality consistent with those set forth in Article 12.
