June 22, 2020            Exhibit 10.8

Megan C. Timmins 15 Brookmawr Road

Newtown Square, PA 19073 Dear Megan:

Assertio through its subsidiary Zyla Life Sciences (the “Company”) is pleased to offer you employment on the following terms:

Position: Your initial title will be Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary reporting to Todd Smith, President & CEO. This is a full-time position. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time, “Other Commitments”) that would interfere with your full-time obligation to the Company or otherwise create a conflict of interest with the Company. By signing this letter agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have disclosed in writing to the Company all current or expected future Other Commitments, and you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company. Your principal work location will be at either the Company’s office in Wayne, Pennsylvania or at your current personal residence.

Employee Benefits: As a regular employee of the Company, you will be eligible to participate in a number of Company-sponsored benefits, currently including such benefits as healthcare insurance, twenty three (23) days of paid vacation, 11 paid holidays and, should you choose to participate, a 401(k)-retirement plan.

Management Continuity Agreement: Your offer includes a Management Continuity Agreement, a copy of which is included in your offer packet and email hereto as Exhibit A. This Offer Letter is incorporated by reference into the Management Continuity Agreement.

Employment Relationship: Employment with the Company is for no specific period of time. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this letter agreement, together with the Management Continuity Agreement. This, along with the applicable provisions of the Management Continuity Agreement, is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, reporting relationship, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time (subject to the applicable provisions of the Management Continuity Agreement), the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and the President & CEO of Assertio.

Taxes: All forms of compensation referred to in this letter agreement are subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law. You agree that the Company does not have a duty to design its compensation policies in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities, and you will not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors related to tax liabilities arising from your compensation.

Assignment: The Company may assign its rights under this letter agreement to an affiliate, and an affiliate may assign its rights under this letter agreement to another affiliate of the Company or to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company (or any successor thereto) may not assign its obligations under this letter agreement without your prior written consent, unless such assignment is in connection with the assignment of this letter agreement to the entity that actually employs you.

Interpretation, Amendment and Enforcement: This letter agreement and Exhibit A constitute the complete agreement between you and the Company, contain all of the terms of your employment with the Company and supersede any prior agreements, representations or understandings (whether written, oral or implied) between you and the Company. This letter agreement may not be amended or modified, except by an express written agreement signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. The terms of this letter agreement and the resolution of any disputes as to the meaning, effect, performance or validity of this letter agreement or arising out of, related to, or in any way connected with, this letter agreement, your employment with the Company or any other relationship between you and the Company will be governed by Delaware law, excluding laws relating to conflicts or choice of law.

Megan, I am very pleased to extend this offer to you, and, on behalf of all the Assertio employees, I look forward to having you join us. Assertio’s activities focus on developing products to improve patient lives, and your skills and experience will make you an important member of our Company. If you elect to accept this offer, please sign, date and return one copy of this letter to myself at slongoria@assertiotx.com.

This offer, if not accepted, will expire by close of business, Tuesday, June 23, 2020 If you have any questions, please call me at ###-###-####.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Sarah Longoria
