Should the FTC or DOJ, as the case may be, object to any such modification, the Parties agree to continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to modify, as many times as necessary, the Settlement Documents as required above in this Section 4.

(b) For purposes of the Settlement Documents, “commercially reasonable efforts” shall mean such reasonable, diligent, and good-faith efforts as a Party would normally use to accomplish a similar objective under similar circumstances.

Teva retains all rights set forth in Section 10 of the License Agreement.

(b) Neos for itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably releases and discharges Teva and its Affiliates, predecessors, successors, assigns, directors, officers, employees, agents, suppliers, distributors, importers, manufacturers, and customers from all causes of action, demands, claims, damages, and liabilities of any nature, whether known or unknown, arising between Neos and/or its Affiliates and Teva and/or its Affiliates from or in connection with the Action, the Teva ANDA, the generic products described by the Teva ANDA, and/or Neos’s COTEMPLA XR-ODT™ brand methylphenidate extended-release orally disintegrating tablet products and accruing or occurring prior to the Execution Date, including, without limitation, all claims that Neos and/or its Affiliates have asserted or could have asserted in the Action or in any other proceeding that any of the Licensed Patents, as defined in the License Agreement, is infringed by the Teva ANDA and/or the sale of the generic products described by the Teva ANDA in the Territory (all of the above collectively, the “Neos Released Claims”).

Neos retains all rights set forth in Section 10 of the License Agreement.

(c) this Agreement shall constitute a final settlement between the Parties in the Territory in connection with the Action and the Teva ANDA, and neither Teva nor its Affiliates shall institute any new challenge or litigation against Neos and/or its Affiliates with respect to any of the Licensed Patents, as defined in the License Agreement, and ANDA 210924, or actively assist or cooperate with any other party in any such challenge or litigation unless so ordered by the Court or compelled by law. Notwithstanding this Section 5, Teva may (1) re-certify and/or maintain a “Paragraph IV Certification” in the Teva ANDA (as defined in the

License Agreement) with respect to the Licensed Patents or amend the Teva ANDA to contain a “Paragraph IV Certification” with respect to any patent listed in the Orange Book for COTEMPLA XR-ODT™ brand methylphenidate extended-release orally disintegrating tablets (and send corresponding notice of such certification); (2) challenge the infringement, validity, enforceability or patentability of any claim of the Licensed Patents in any litigation or proceeding in any court with respect to any product other than the Licensed Products (as defined in the License Agreement) or any ANDA other than the Teva ANDA; or (3) file a petition with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office requesting reexamination, inter partes review, or other post grant review of any claims of any Licensed Patents for which Neos or its Affiliates initiates a district court litigation against Teva with a claim of infringement with respect to any product other than the Licensed Products, as defined by the License Agreement, or any ANDA other than the Teva ANDA. Further, notwithstanding this Section 5, the Neos Released Claims do not preclude Neos from asserting infringement of any of the Licensed Patents, as defined in the License Agreement, in any action or proceeding against Teva and/or any of its Affiliates involving any Teva product other than the Licensed Products, as defined in the License Agreement.

(d) Neither Party shall release any agent or consultant retained by the Party in connection with the Action or any attorney who represented such Party in the Action from maintaining the confidentiality of non-public information to which such agent, consultant or attorney had access in connection with the Action or grant any waivers with respect to such maintenance, unless so ordered by the Court or compelled by law; and

(e) to the extent necessary, each Party shall cooperate with the other to enforce the obligations of such agents, consultants, or attorneys referred to under Section 5(d) herein.

STIPULATION AND ORDER

The Court, upon the consent and request of Plaintiffs Neos Therapeutics, Inc. and Neos Therapeutics, LP (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) and Defendant Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (“Teva”), hereby acknowledges the following Stipulation and issues the following Order.

STIPULATION

1. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over the above-captioned patent infringement action (the “Action”) and personal jurisdiction over Plaintiffs and Teva for purposes of this Action only. Venue is proper in this Court as to Plaintiffs and Teva for purposes of this Action only.

2. In the Action, Plaintiffs have asserted claims against Teva for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,840,924 (“the ‘924 patent”), 9,072,680 (“the ‘680 patent”); and 9,089,496 (“the ‘496 patent”), in connection with Teva’s submission of Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) No. 210924 directed to generic extended-release orally

disintegrating tablets containing 8.6 mg, 17.3 mg, or 25.9 mg of methylphenidate to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”).

3. In response to Plaintiffs’ charges of patent infringement, Teva has denied Plaintiffs’ claims and alleged certain defenses and counterclaims, including that the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent are invalid and/or not infringed by the generic extended-release orally disintegrating tablet products that are the subject of ANDA No. 210924. To date, no decision has been obtained in the Action regarding Plaintiffs’ claims of infringement, the validity of the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent, and/or whether any commercial making, using, selling, or offering to sell within the United States, or importing into the United States, of the generic products described by ANDA No. 210924 would infringe those patents.

4. For purposes of resolving the Action, Teva admits that the submission of ANDA No. 210924 to the FDA for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approval to engage in the commercial manufacture, use, and/or sale of the generic methylphenidate products described therein within the United States before the expiration the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent was a technical act of infringement of each of those patents under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2)(A). This admission is without prejudice to any claim, defense, or counterclaim in any possible future action or proceeding between Teva and Plaintiffs regarding the ‘924 patent, the ‘680 patent, and/or the ‘496 patent and a product other than the generic products described by ANDA No. 210924.

5. Both parties agree that all other claims, defenses, and counterclaims set forth in the pleadings in the Action, including the allegations and averments contained therein, should be dismissed, without prejudice.

ORDER

Accordingly, pursuant to the above Stipulation, and upon the consent and request of Plaintiffs and Teva, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:

1. The filing of ANDA No. 210924 was a technical act of infringement of the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2)(A). No decision in the Action has been obtained by either party regarding the validity of the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent and/or whether any commercial making, using, selling, or offering to sell within the United States, or importing into the United States, of the generic products described by ANDA No. 210924 would infringe those patents.

2. All other claims, defenses, and counterclaims set forth in the pleadings in the Action, including the allegations and averments contained therein, are hereby dismissed, without prejudice.

3. Teva, its officers, agents, servants, employees, and attorneys, and all other persons in active concert or participation with any of them who receive actual notice of this Order by personal service or otherwise, are hereby enjoined from commercially manufacturing, using, offering to sell, or selling within the United States, or importing into the United States, the generic extended-release orally disintegrating tablet products described by ANDA No. 210924

during the life of the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent, including any extensions and pediatric exclusivities, absent a license agreement or other authorization by Plaintiffs.

4. Plaintiffs and Teva each expressly waive any right to appeal or otherwise move for relief from this Stipulation And Order.

5. Each party is to bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs.

6. This Court retains jurisdiction over Plaintiffs and Teva for purposes of enforcing this Stipulation And Order.

7. This Stipulation And Order shall finally resolve the Action.

8. This Stipulation And Order is without prejudice to any claim, defense, or counterclaim in any possible future action or proceeding between Teva and Plaintiffs regarding the ‘924 patent, ‘680 patent, and the ‘496 patent and a product other than the generic extended-release orally disintegrating tablet products described by ANDA No. 210924.

9. Nothing herein prohibits or is intended to prohibit: (a) Teva from maintaining any “Paragraph IV Certification” pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) or pursuant to 21 C.F.R. § 314.94(a)(12) with respect to ANDA No. 210924; or (b) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration from granting final approval of Teva’s ANDA No. 210924 at any time.

10. The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter this Stipulation And Order forthwith.

SO ORDERED:

(a) a non-exclusive, fully paid up, royalty-free license and sublicense, as applicable, under the Licensed Patents to Manufacture, have Manufactured, and Market the Licensed Products in or for the Territory; and

(b) a waiver of any regulatory, statutory, or other exclusivities necessary to effectuate the license and sublicense provided in Section 2.1(a) with respect to the Licensed Products.

In addition, during the period of one hundred eighty (180) consecutive calendar days prior to the Launch Date, Neos grants to Teva a non-exclusive license and sublicense, as applicable, to Manufacture or have Manufactured Licensed Products in or for the Territory solely to the extent reasonably necessary to enable Teva to launch such Licensed Products in the Territory on or after the Launch Date. Teva may Manufacture Licensed Products earlier to the extent necessary and related to FDA approval. The licenses and sublicenses granted under this Section 2.1 are referred to herein as the “Teva License.” Teva shall not have any right to sublicense, transfer, or assign any of its rights under the Teva License, except to the extent expressly permitted under Section 13.2 of this License Agreement.

2.2 Pre-Booking Activities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this License Agreement, prior to the Launch Date, Teva may engage in the following pre-booking activities:

2.3 Regulatory Delay. No provision of this License Agreement shall be affected by any delay in the approval of the Teva ANDA by the FDA, or the failure of Teva to obtain FDA approval of the Teva ANDA, except to the extent that such provision is affected by the delay of the Launch Date.

2.4 No Interference; No Discontinuation. Subject to Teva’s compliance with the terms of this License Agreement and the Settlement Agreement — and except for good faith reasons of safety and/or efficacy based on legitimate, objective evidence or pursuant to an FDA request or court order — Neos and/or its Affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly, seek to interfere with Teva’s efforts to: (a) obtain FDA approval of the Licensed Products; or (b) Market the Licensed Products as of the date and under the terms provided by this License Agreement. Subject to Teva’s compliance, neither shall Neos nor any of its Affiliates Officially Discontinue the products described in the Neos NDA prior to the expiration of the Licensed Patents, unless required, requested, or recommended to do so by the FDA or other governmental authority or applicable law.

2.5 Confirmation of Regulatory Waiver. During the Term, within ten (10) business days of receiving a written request from Teva delivered in accordance with Section 13 of this License Agreement, Neos shall submit to the FDA, and/or shall cause its Affiliates to submit to the FDA, appropriate and reasonable documentation (in a form acceptable to FDA and all subject to review by Teva prior to submission) evidencing the licenses, covenants not to sue and waivers set forth in this agreement, including but not limited to a letter in the form provided in Exhibit C to the Settlement Agreement. If requested in writing by Teva or the FDA, Neos shall further authenticate any true and correct copy of the Settlement Documents provided to the FDA by Teva. Should the FDA request additional confirmation or documentation of the licenses, covenants not to sue and waivers set forth in this agreement, the Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement with respect to providing any such requested additional confirmation or documentation.

2.6 No Consent For FDA Approval. Nothing in this License Agreement or any of the other Settlement Documents shall be interpreted as Neos or its Affiliates consenting to the accuracy or sufficiency of any scientific, medical, bioequivalence, regulatory, or other information contained in the Teva ANDA and/or consenting to the FDA approving the Teva ANDA on the basis of any such information.

3. No Unauthorized Manufacturing or Marketing. Except to the extent expressly permitted by Section 2.1, Section 2.2, Section 5, or Section 6 of this License Agreement, unless this License Agreement is earlier terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, neither Teva, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any of its API Affiliates, nor any of its Wholesaler Affiliates shall under any circumstances commercially Manufacture or Market any Licensed Product in the Territory prior to the expiration of all of the Licensed Patents, including any extensions and pediatric exclusivities.

In the event that there is a Market Erosion, as defined in Section 5.3(a) of this License Agreement, and there is no extenuating Force Majeure Event, as defined in Section 5.3(b) of this License Agreement, then the Launch Date in this License Agreement shall automatically be amended as defined in Section 5.3(c) of this License Agreement.

Confirmatory Letter To FDA

Dear [FDA],

Pursuant to 21 C.F.R. § 314.94(a)(12)(v), Neos Therapeutics, Inc. and Neos Therapeutics, LP (collectively, “Neos”) hereby state that:

1. Neos is the owner of New Drug Application No. 205489 and U.S. Patent Nos. 8,840,924; 9,072,680; and 9,089,496; and

2. Neos and Teva Pharmaceutical USA, Inc. (“Teva”) have reached a settlement of the following litigation pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware concerning ANDA No. 210924: Neos Therapeutics, Inc. et al. v. Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc., Civil Action No. 17-1793-CFC (D. Del.); and

3. Under the confidential terms of the settlement agreed to by Neos and Teva, and using the exact language of 21 C.F.R. § 314.94(a)(12)(v), Neos “has a licensing agreement” with Teva that permits Teva to sell the generic product defined by ANDA No. 210924 as of July 1, 2026 under license from Neos. Given this licensing agreement, and under the terms and conditions set forth therein, Neos “consents to approval of ANDA No. 210924” as soon as it is otherwise eligible for FDA approval. Given the licensing agreement referenced above, there are no patent disputes preventing effective approval of ANDA No. 210924 as soon as it is otherwise eligible for FDA approval.
