v. Section 4.1(c) shall be deleted in its entirety.

“For clarity, Grünenthal acknowledges and agrees that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration quota to purchase the active ingredient Sufentanil Citrate potion of the Product ends on 31 March of each year of this Agreement for the following Calendar Year and as a result any increases to the rolling forecast after 31 March that would result in additional requests to the increase the APQ for such Calendar Year may not be obtained from the DEA. Accordingly, any shortage of Product or interruption of supply resulting from a change in the rolling forecast from Grünenthal that results in a shortage of APQ due to failure to obtain the additional quota necessary to meet a revised rolling forecast requirement under this Agreement will not represent a failure to use commercially reasonable efforts or a breach of this Agreement or the License Agreement.”
x. Section 5.1(b) shall be amended and replaced in its entirety to read as follows:

If the shortage of Product described in this Section 5.1(b) affects Drug or Device portions of the Product unequally, or affects only the Drug or only the Device, then the proportional allocation of Product described herein shall instead be a separate, proportional allocation of each of the Drug and/or Device portions of the Product, based on the total quantity of each available and the total quantity of each sold by Grünenthal in the [*] preceding the supply shortage.”
y. Section 5.3(b) Request for Back-up manufacturer shall be extended by a further new paragraph as follows:
