LICENSE

Section 2.1 License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Orexo hereby grants to Licensee, and Licensee hereby accepts (a) an exclusive (even as to Orexo), transferable (to the extent permitted by Section 5.1), sublicenseable (to the extent permitted by Section 2.2) license under the Licensed Intellectual Property solely to use, distribute, market, sell, offer for sale and import the Product solely in the Territory and (b) a non-exclusive, transferable (to the extent permitted by Section 5.1), sublicenseable (to the extent permitted by Section 2.2) license under the Licensed Intellectual Property to manufacture the Product in the Territory solely to use, distribute, market, sell and offer for sale such Product in the Territory.

Section 2.2 Sublicensing. Licensee may sublicense its rights under Sections 2.1(a) and 2.1(b) to any Affiliate or Third Party only if each such sublicense: (a) is in writing and is subject and subordinate to, and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (b) does not diminish, reduce or eliminate any of Licensee’s obligations under this Agreement; (c) requires the sublicensee to comply with all applicable terms of this Agreement; and (d) prohibits further sublicensing except on terms consistent with this Section 2.2. Licensee shall provide Orexo with a complete copy of each sublicense within thirty (30) days after execution thereof. Licensee shall be responsible for the performance of each sublicensee and shall ensure that each sublicensee complies with all relevant provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.3 Licensed Know-How Transfer. In addition to the transfer of any Licensed Know-How as contemplated by the Transfer Agreement, Orexo shall make available, for one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing (or such longer period as may be mutually agreed by the Parties) and in such form as the Parties shall reasonably agree, all tangible Licensed Know-How in Orexo’s possession or Control (other than any Licensed Know-How subject to the Transfer Agreement) as of the Closing that is requested by Licensee, and during such one

3

hundred and eighty (180) day period Orexo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Licensee with information or assistance reasonably requested by Licensee with respect to using such Licensed Know-How, provided that the provision of such assistance does not interfere in any material respects with Orexo’s business. Licensee shall reimburse Orexo for its reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in performing the transfer of, and the provision of information and assistance with respect to, the Licensed Know-How to Licensee under this Section 2.3.

Section 2.4 Prosecution of Licensed Patents. Orexo shall have the sole right to file, prosecute and maintain the Licensed Patents worldwide, at its cost and at its sole discretion. For each patent application and patent under the Licensed Patents, Orexo shall: (a) prepare, file and prosecute such patent application; (b) maintain such patent; (c) pay all fees and expenses associated with its activities pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above; (d) keep Licensee currently informed of the filing and progress of all material aspects of the prosecution of any such patent application, and the issuance of patents from any such patent application; (e) consult with Licensee in advance concerning any decisions which could materially and adversely affect the scope or enforcement of any issued claims or the potential abandonment of any such patent application or patent; and (f) notify Licensee promptly of any additions, deletions or changes in the status of any such patent or patent application.

Section 2.5 Enforcement of Licensed Patents.

(a) Each Party shall promptly notify, in writing, the other Party upon learning of any actual or suspected Competitive Infringement, any ANDA Certification, or of any claim of invalidity, unenforceability, or non-infringement of any Licensed Patents, and shall, along with such notice, supply the other Party with any evidence in its possession pertaining thereto. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Competitive Infringement” means, other than in connection with an ANDA Certification, any allegedly infringing activity by a Third Party with respect to a Licensed Patent in the Territory, which activity falls within the scope then in effect of the licenses granted by Orexo to Licensee as set forth in Section 2.1(a) and is reasonably expected to reduce Net Sales of the Product in the Territory, and (ii) “ANDA Certification” means any certification filed by a Third Party pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 355(j)(2)(A)(vii), or any amendment or successor statute thereto, claiming that the Licensed Patents covering the Product in the Territory are invalid or that infringement of the Licensed Patents in the Territory shall not arise from the manufacture, use or sale of a product by a Third Party, where such certification is made by such Third Party in connection with an abbreviated new drug application filed under 21 U.S.C. § 355(j) for a product where the Product is the reference listed drug.

(b) Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, Orexo shall have the sole right and the obligation to bring, within the statutory period specified in 21 U.S.C. § 355(j)(5)(B)(iii), and prosecute an infringement suit against a Third Party making an ANDA Certification (each, an “ANDA Action”), provided that if Orexo’s legal counsel advises that there does not exist a reasonable basis to bring an ANDA Action, Orexo shall not be obligated to bring such ANDA Action. Orexo shall not compromise or settle an ANDA Action without Licensee’s prior written consent if such compromise or settlement would permit the Third Party to

4

commercially market the product that is the subject of the ANDA Certification prior to the expiration of the Licensed Patents asserted in such ANDA Action, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c) Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, Orexo shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to attempt to resolve any Competitive Infringement, including by filing an infringement suit, defending against such claim or taking other similar action (each, a “Competitive Infringement Action”) and to compromise or settle such infringement or claim. If Orexo determines not to initiate a Competitive Infringement Action, Orexo shall promptly inform Licensee. If Orexo does not initiate a Competitive Infringement Action with respect to such Competitive Infringement within ninety (90) days following notice thereof, Licensee shall have the right to attempt to resolve such Competitive Infringement by providing written notice thereof to Orexo.

(d) The Parties shall allocate costs and expenses associated with an ANDA Action brought under Section 2.5(b) or any other action brought in connection with an ANDA Certification as follows: Orexo shall pay and be responsible for twelve percent (12%) of such costs and expenses, and Licensee shall be responsible for and pay eighty eight percent (88%) of such costs and expenses. The Party bringing a Competitive Infringement Action under Section 2.5(c) shall pay all costs and expenses associated with such Action, other than the costs and expenses of the other Party if the other Party elects to join such Action (except as provided in Section 2.5(g)).

(e) Any amounts recovered by the Party taking an ANDA Action pursuant to Section 2.5(b), whether by settlement or judgment, shall be allocated in the following order: (i) to reimburse the Parties for any costs and expenses incurred in proportion to the costs and expenses paid by such Party pursuant to the first sentence of Section 2.5(d), and (ii) the remaining amount of such recovery shall be allocated eighty eight percent (88%) to Licensee and twelve percent (12%) to Orexo. Any amounts recovered by the Party bringing a Competitive Infringement Action pursuant to Section 2.5(c), whether by settlement or judgment, shall be allocated in the following order: (i) to reimburse the Party taking such Competitive Infringement Action for any costs incurred, (ii) to reimburse the Party not taking such Competitive Infringement Action for its costs incurred in such Competitive Infringement Action, if it joins such Competitive Infringement Action, and (iii) the remaining amount of such recovery shall be allocated to Licensee to the extent that the amounts recovered pertain to damages awarded or obtained to compensate for the Competitive Infringement, and Orexo shall retain all remaining amounts.

(f) For clarity, in the event of any infringement of any Licensed Patent (i) outside of the Territory, (ii) with respect to any product other than the Product, whether in or outside of the Territory, or (iii) that is not solely a Competitive Infringement, in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), Orexo shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to attempt to resolve such infringement or claim and to compromise or settle such infringement or claim.

(g) The Party enforcing the Licensed Patents shall have the sole and exclusive right to select counsel for any suit initiated by it pursuant to this Section 2.5. The Party not

5

enforcing the Licensed Patents shall provide reasonable assistance to the other Party, including joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by applicable Law to pursue such action, subject to the other Party’s reimbursement of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the non-enforcing Party in providing such assistance.

Section 2.6 Defense of Licensed Patents. As between the Parties, Orexo shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to defend, at its cost and at its sole discretion, against a declaratory judgment action or other action challenging any Licensed Patents. If the scope, ownership, validity or enforceability of a Licensed Patent is challenged in any counter-claims in any enforcement action brought by Licensee pursuant to Section 2.5(c), Orexo shall control the defense of such counterclaims, and Licensee shall take all actions and make such filings as are reasonably directed by Orexo in respect of such defense. Licensee shall provide reasonable assistance to Orexo, including joining such action as a party if required by applicable Law to pursue such action, subject to Orexo’s payment or reimbursement of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Licensee in providing such assistance.

Section 2.7 Third Party Infringement Claims. Other than any obligations arising under Section 10 of the Asset Purchase Agreement, as between the parties, neither Licensor nor Licensee shall have any responsibility for asserted or threatened claims or suits alleging that the development, manufacture, use, distribution, marketing, sale, offer for sale or sale of the Product in the Territory, infringes the patents or other intellectual property rights of a Third Party.

Section 2.8 Listing of Patents; PTE. Licensee shall have the sole right to determine which of the Licensed Patents, if any, shall be listed for inclusion in the Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations pursuant to 21 U.S.C. Section 355, or any successor Laws, in the Territory. If any election for patent term restoration or extension may be made with respect to any Licensed Patent in the Territory, the Parties shall discuss and seek to reach mutual agreement whether or not to take such action. If the Parties are not able to reach mutual agreement, Orexo shall have the sole right to make the final decision whether or not to seek such patent term restoration or extension with respect to the Licensed Patents.

Section 2.9 Confidentiality. The provisions of Section 9.07 of the Asset Purchase Agreement shall apply with respect to the Licensed Intellectual Property, which shall be deemed the Confidential Information of Orexo.

Section 2.10 Reservation of Rights. Except as provided in Section 2.1 and Section 3.2(c), Orexo does not grant any license or other rights to Licensee with respect to any intellectual property or other proprietary rights, and no additional rights shall be deemed granted to Licensee by implication, estoppel or otherwise. Further, Orexo does not grant any licenses or rights hereunder with respect to any product other than the Product containing Fentanyl as its sole active ingredient. All rights not expressly granted by Orexo to Licensee hereunder are reserved.
