(b) If the Colombia Closing has not occurred on or before the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parties shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, negotiate in good faith alternative arrangements to effectuate the intent of this Agreement.”

34. Addition of Section 6.22. Article 6 of the Stock Purchase Agreement is hereby amended to add a new Section 6.22 after the new Section 6.21 to read as follows:

“6.22 Transferred Subsidiaries and Indirect Subsidiaries Corporate Name. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall cause the Transferred Subsidiaries and Indirect Subsidiaries to change their respective current corporate names in order to remove from said corporate names any reference to the Seller Names. Upon request of the Share Sellers after the 90-day period mentioned above, the Buyer shall provide the Share Sellers with any document evidencing such change and the filing of such change with the relevant Governmental Authorities.”

35. Addition of Section 6.23. Article 6 of the Stock Purchase Agreement is hereby amended to add a new Section 6.23 after the new Section 6.22 to read as follows:

“6.23 Receivables.

(a) To the extent that Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, or the Share Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, receive payment of an account, trade or note receivable or other payment from a customer or any other obligor as to which the other Party is entitled, the Party receiving such payment agrees to promptly (and in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of such payment) remit such payment to the designated bank account of the owner of such receivable or payment, without any further payment by the Party entitled to such receivable or payment.

(b) Following the Closing, Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to collect the accounts receivable set forth on Schedule 6.23(b). Upon receipt of payment of such accounts receivable, Buyer agrees to promptly (and in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such payment) remit such payment to the bank account designated by the applicable Share Seller, without any further payment by the Share Sellers.”

 

12


36. Addition of Section 6.24. Article 6 of the Stock Purchase Agreement is hereby amended to add a new Section 6.24 after the new Section 6.23 to read as follows:

“6.24 MNK-010 Termination. At the Closing, the Share Sellers agree to pay to the Buyer US$ 225,000, an amount equal to the amount that Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals Ireland Limited would have owed Mallinckrodt Medical-Imaging Ireland if (a) the 2015 MNK-010 Amendment was executed and in full force and effect and (b) Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals Ireland Limited terminated the MNK-010 Agreement, as amended by the 2015 MNK-010 Amendment, the day after the Closing Date in accordance with Section 16 by providing three (3) months prior written notice.”

“7.2 Consents and Approvals. All Competition Filings required hereunder shall have been made with all appropriate Governmental Authorities and any necessary authorizations, consents or approvals required from such Governmental Authorities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or the Ancillary Agreements (other than the Colombia Approval) shall have been obtained and shall be in full force and effect, including the expiration of the waiting period in connection with the HSR Filing.”

38. Amendment of Section 7.7(b).

42. Amendment of Section 8.4. Section 8.4 of the Stock Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 8.4(b) in its entirety and, consequently, by relettering all subsequent section references and corresponding schedule references within Section 7.7 (with respect to this deleted section).

ARTICLE 2

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

2.1 No Further Amendment. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Stock Purchase Agreement is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions, and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This Amendment is limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed to be an amendment to any other term or condition of the Stock Purchase Agreement or any other document referred to therein. This Amendment shall be deemed to be in full force and effect from and after the execution of this Amendment by the Parties hereto, and the Parties thereto and hereto shall be bound hereby.

2.2 Disclosure Schedules. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the Share Sellers have no obligation to update the information contained in any Disclosure Schedule, and that any amendment of any Disclosure Schedule contained in this Amendment is provided solely for informational purposes. The fact that the Share Sellers provide an update to one or more Disclosure Schedules shall not imply that any Share Seller has any obligation to update the information set forth on any other Disclosure Schedule, and no Party shall use, in any dispute or controversy, the fact that such an update was provided as evidence of any obligation of any Share Seller to update the information set forth on any other Disclosure Schedule.

2.3 Entire Agreement. This Amendment, the Stock Purchase Agreement, and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto embody the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, whether written or oral or express or implied, relative to such subject matter. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Amendment and any Ancillary Agreement, the former shall prevail in every case.

 

14


2.4 Severability. If any provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction or as a result of future legislative action, such holding or action shall be strictly construed and shall not affect the validity or effect of any other provision hereof, as long as the remaining provisions, taken together, are sufficient to carry out the overall intentions of the Parties as evidenced hereby.

2.5 Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed simultaneously in multiple counterparts, and in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

2.6 Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, applicable to contracts to be carried out wholly within such State, without reference to its conflict of laws principles that might apply the law of another jurisdiction.
