Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

As part of the Registrant’s ongoing product portfolio assessment, on December 7, 2016, the Registrant’s wholly-owned subsidiary terminated its January 5, 2012 worldwide license and development agreement with BioDelivery Sciences International, Inc. (“BDSI”) for BELBUCA™ (buprenorphine HCl) Buccal Film (the “Termination”). BELBUCA™ is a transmucosal form of buprenorphine, a partial mu-opiate receptor agonist, which incorporates a bioerodible mucoadhesive (BEMA®) technology. As a result of the Termination, the Registrant expects to record a non-cash intangible asset impairment charge of approximately $40 million associated with BELBUCA™ during the fourth quarter of 2016.

In addition, the Registrant is restructuring its U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment sales organization in connection with the Termination and the product portfolio assessment. This restructuring is comprised of certain cost savings initiatives, including the elimination of an approximate 375-member U.S. Branded pain field salesforce. This salesforce consists of full-time employees, contract sales representatives and internal support to the Registrant’s promoted pain business.

In addition to the $40 million non-cash impairment charge described above, the Registrant expects to incur cash charges of approximately $22 million consisting of approximately $18 million of employee separation and other benefit-related costs and $4 million of early contract termination fees. Substantially all of these cash payments are anticipated to be made by the end of 2017. The Registrant expects to incur total pre-tax charges related to the restructuring of approximately $62 million. The Registrant anticipates these actions will be completed by December 31, 2016 and expects to record the foregoing costs during the fourth quarter of 2016.

A copy of the Registrant’s December 8, 2016 press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
