FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained or incorporated by reference in this document contain information that includes or is based on “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. These statements, including estimates of future revenues, future expenses, future net income and future net income per share, contained in the section titled “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ,” which is included in this document, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed results of operations. We have tried, whenever possible, to identify such statements by words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plan,” “projected,” “forecast,” “will,” “may,” or similar expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about the growth of our business, our financial performance, and the development of our industry. Because these statements reflect our current views concerning future events, these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Investors should note that many factors, as more fully described under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A.  of this document and in  Part I, Item 1A.  of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 , as supplemented and amended by risk factors previously disclosed by us in Part II, Item 1A. under the caption “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2016, and as otherwise enumerated herein, could affect our future financial results and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this document.
We do not undertake any obligation to update our forward-looking statements after the date of this document for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future, except as may be required under applicable securities law. You are advised to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and with securities regulators in Canada on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval. Also note that, under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A.  of this document and in  Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 2015 , as supplemented and amended by the risk factors previously disclosed by us in Part II, Item 1A. under the caption “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2016, we provide a cautionary discussion of the risks, uncertainties and possibly inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business. These are factors that, individually or in the aggregate, we think could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. We note these factors for investors as permitted by Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider this to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards update (ASU) No. 2014-09,  “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 represents a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which a company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU sets forth a new five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the prior revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance that have historically existed. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date,” which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year, but permits companies to adopt one year earlier if they choose (i.e., the original effective date). As such, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and the Company currently plans to adopt it on January 1, 2018. In March and April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Consideration (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)” and ASU No. 2016-10 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” respectively , which clarifies the guidance on reporting revenue as a principal versus agent, identifying performance obligations and accounting for intellectual property licenses. In addition, in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” which amends certain narrow aspects of Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these standards on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position, including possible transition alternatives.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “ Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”  (ASU 2015-11). ASU 2015-11 states that an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. For public entities, ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively and early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2015-11 on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.

6


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “ Leases (Topic 842) ” (ASU 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 establishes the principles to report transparent and economically neutral information about the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. This guidance results in a more faithful representation of the rights and obligations arising from operating and capital leases by requiring lessees to recognize the lease assets and lease liabilities that arise from leases in the statement of financial position and to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about lease transactions, such as information about variable lease payments and options to renew and terminate leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (ASU 2016-09). ASU 2016-09 changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payments to employees including: (a) requiring all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement, rather than in additional paid in capital, when the awards vest or are settled, (b) eliminating the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before companies can recognize them, (c) requiring companies to present excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity, (d) increasing the amount an employer can withhold to cover income taxes on awards and still qualify for the exception to liability classification for shares used to satisfy the employer’s statutory income tax withholding obligation, (e) requiring an employer to classify the cash paid to a tax authority when shares are withheld to satisfy its statutory income tax withholding obligation as a financing activity on its statement of cash flows and (f) electing whether to account for forfeitures of share-based payments by (1) recognizing forfeitures of awards as they occur or (2) estimating the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjusting the estimate when it is likely to change, as is currently required. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period but all of ASU 2016-09 must be adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-09 on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.
NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND HELD FOR SALE
American Medical Systems
On February 24, 2015 , the Company’s Board of Directors (Board of Directors) approved a plan to sell the Company’s American Medical Systems Holdings, Inc. (AMS) business, which comprised the entirety of our former Devices segment. The AMS business was comprised of the Men’s Health and Prostate Health business as well as the Women’s Health business (referred to herein as Astora). On August 3, 2015, the Company sold the Men’s Health and Prostate Health business to Boston Scientific Corporation (Boston Scientific) for $1.65 billion , with $1.60 billion paid upfront in cash and $50.0 million in cash contingent on Boston Scientific achieving certain product revenue milestones in the Men’s Health and Prostate Health business in 2016.
In addition to selling the Men’s Health and Prostate Health business in 2015, as of December 31, 2015 and continuing into 2016, the Company was actively pursuing a sale of the Astora business with the Company in active negotiations with multiple potential buyers. The majority of the remaining assets and liabilities of the AMS business, which were related to the Astora business, were classified as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015 in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 29, 2016. Certain of AMS’s assets and liabilities, primarily with respect to its product liability accrual related to vaginal mesh cases, the related Qualified Settlement Funds and certain intangible and fixed assets, were not classified as held for sale based on management’s expectation that these assets and liabilities would remain with the Company.
On February 24, 2016, the Board of Directors resolved to wind down the Company’s Astora business as it did not align with the Company’s strategic direction and to reduce the additional exposure to mesh-related product liability. The Company conducted a wind down process to transition physicians to alternative products during the first quarter of 2016. The Company ceased business operations of Astora on March 31, 2016 and exited its AMS business. As a result, as of March 31, 2016 and periods thereafter, the remaining assets and liabilities of the AMS business, which were related to the Astora business, were no longer classified as held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets . In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company also reclassified the Astora assets and liabilities previously presented as held for sale as of December 31, 2015 to held and used on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets .
The operating results of the AMS business are reported as Discontinued operations, net of tax in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented.

Astora Restructuring
The Astora wind down process includes a restructuring initiative implemented during the three months ended March 31, 2016, which includes the reduction of the Astora workforce consisting of approximately 250 employees. Under this restructuring initiative, separation costs are expensed over the requisite service period, if any, while retention is being expensed ratably over the respective retention period.
As a result of the Astora restructuring initiative, the Company incurred expenses of $6.0 million and $66.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, consisting of employee separation, retention and other benefit-related costs , asset impairment charges, contract termination charges and other general restructuring costs.

NOTE 5. ACQUISITIONS
For each of the acquisitions described below, except for Auxilium, the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired are provisional as of June 30, 2016 and are based on information that is currently available to the Company. Additional information is being gathered to finalize these provisional measurements. Accordingly, the measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may change upon finalization of the Company’s valuations and completion of the purchase price allocations, all of which are expected to occur no later than one year from the respective acquisition dates.

Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
On January 29, 2015 (the Auxilium Acquisition Date), the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Auxilium, a fully integrated specialty biopharmaceutical company emerging as a leader in the men’s healthcare sector with a strategically focused product portfolio and pipeline in orthopedics, dermatology and other therapeutic areas, in a transaction valued at $2.6 billion . The Company believed that Auxilium would be highly complementary to its branded pharmaceuticals business with significant opportunities to leverage Auxilium’s leading presence in men’s health, as well as the Company’s R&D capabilities and financial resources, to accelerate the growth of Auxilium’s XIAFLEX ® and its other products.
The operating results of Auxilium are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and the operating results from the Auxilium Acquisition Date are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 .
The Company recognized no acquisition-related transaction costs associated with the Auxilium acquisition during the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The Company recognized acquisition-related transaction costs associated with the Auxilium acquisition during the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaling $23.1 million . These costs, which related primarily to bank fees, legal and accounting services, and fees for other professional services, are included in Acquisition-related and integration items in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations .
The amounts of Auxilium Revenue and Net loss attributable to Endo International plc included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations from and including January 29, 2015 to June 30, 2015 are as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

The following supplemental unaudited pro forma information presents the financial results as if the acquisition of Auxilium had occurred on January 1, 2015 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . This supplemental pro forma information has been prepared for comparative purposes and does not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition been made on January 1, 2015 , nor are they indicative of any future results.

These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Auxilium to reflect factually supportable adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Auxilium acquisition assuming the Auxilium acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015 . These adjustments mainly include adjustments to interest expense and additional intangible amortization. The adjustments to interest expense, net of tax, related to borrowings to finance the acquisition increased the expense by $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . In addition, the adjustments include additional intangible amortization, net of tax, which would have been charged assuming the Company’s estimated fair value of the intangible assets. The adjustment to the amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased the expense by $8.8 million .
Acquisition of Par Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc.
On September 25, 2015 (Par Acquisition Date), the Company acquired Par, a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops, licenses, manufactures, markets and distributes innovative and cost-effective pharmaceuticals with a focus on high-barrier-to-entry products that are difficult to formulate, for total consideration of $8.14 billion , including the assumption of Par debt. The consideration included the Company’s 18,069,899 ordinary shares valued at $1.33 billion .
The operating results of Par are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 . There are no results included in the accompanying  Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations  for the  three and six months ended  June 30, 2015 .

The estimated fair value of the Par assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional as of June 30, 2016 and are based on information that is currently available to the Company. Additional information is being gathered to finalize these provisional measurements, particularly with respect to intangible assets, accrued expenses, deferred income taxes and income taxes payable. Accordingly, the measurement of the Par assets acquired and liabilities assumed may change significantly upon finalization of the Company’s valuations and completion of the purchase price allocation, both of which are expected to occur no later than one year from the Par Acquisition Date. As a result of the measurement period adjustments recorded above, the Company recorded a reduction of $3.8 million of expense, $3.1 million  related to the amortization of intangible assets and $0.7 million related to the amortization of inventory step-up, during the six months ended June 30, 2016 . There were no adjustments of expense recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2016 .

The preliminary fair values of the developed technology and IPR&D assets were estimated using a discounted present value income approach. Under this method, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows (excess earnings) attributable solely to the intangible asset over its remaining useful life. To calculate fair value, the Company used cash flows discounted at rates ranging from 9% to 10.5% , which were considered appropriate given the inherent risks associated with each type of asset. The Company believes that the level and timing of cash flows appropriately reflect market participant assumptions.
The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to strategic and synergistic opportunities related to existing pharmaceutical businesses, the assembled workforce of Par and other factors. Approximately $34.2 million of goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are related primarily to the difference between the book basis and tax basis of identifiable intangible assets and inventory step-up.
The following supplemental unaudited pro forma information presents the financial results as if the acquisition of Par had occurred on January 1, 2015 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 . This supplemental pro forma information has been prepared for comparative purposes and does not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition been made on January 1, 2015 , nor are they indicative of any future results.

These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Par to reflect factually supportable adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Par acquisition assuming the Par acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015 . These adjustments mainly include adjustments to interest expense and additional intangible amortization. The adjustments to interest expense, net of tax, related to borrowings to finance the acquisition had no material impact for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , and increased the expense by $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . In addition, the adjustments include additional intangible amortization, net of tax, that would have been charged assuming the Company’s estimated fair value of the intangible assets. An adjustment to the amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 increased the expense by $46.2 million and $84.4 million , respectively.
Aspen Holdings
On October 1, 2015 , the Company acquired a broad portfolio of branded and generic injectable and established products focused on pain, anti-infectives, cardiovascular and other specialty therapeutic areas from a subsidiary of Aspen Holdings, a leading publicly-traded South African company that supplies branded and generic products in more than 150 countries, and from GlaxoSmithKline plc (GSK) for total consideration of approximately $135.6 million . The transaction expanded the Company’s presence in South Africa.
The fair values of the net identifiable assets acquired totaled $127.8 million , resulting in goodwill of $7.8 million , which was assigned to our International Pharmaceuticals segment. The amount of net identifiable assets acquired in connection with the Aspen Holdings acquisition includes $118.4 million of intangible assets to be amortized over an average life of approximately 19 years , and inventory of $9.4 million .
The operating results of Aspen Holdings are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 . There are no results included in the accompanying  Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations  for the  three and six months ended  June 30, 2015 .
Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of the Aspen Holdings acquisition was not material.
NOTE 6. SEGMENT RESULTS
The reportable business segments in which the Company operates are: (1)  U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals , (2) U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals and (3) International Pharmaceuticals . These segments reflect the level at which the chief operating decision maker regularly reviews financial information to assess performance and to make decisions about resources to be allocated. Each segment derives revenue from the sales or licensing of its respective products and is discussed in more detail below.
We evaluate segment performance based on each segment’s adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax , which we define as loss from continuing operations before income tax and before certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; acquisition-related and integration items, including transaction costs, earn-out payments or adjustments, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and bridge financing costs; cost reduction and integration-related initiatives such as separation benefits, retention payments, other exit costs and certain costs associated with integrating an acquired company’s operations; excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans; asset impairment charges; amortization of intangible assets; inventory step-up recorded as part of our acquisitions; certain non-cash interest expense; litigation-related and other contingent matters; gains or losses from early termination of debt activities; foreign currency gains or losses on intercompany financing arrangements; and certain other items that the Company believes do not reflect its core operating performance .
Certain of the corporate general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company are not attributable to any specific segment. Accordingly, these costs are not allocated to any of the Company’s segments and are included in the results below as “Corporate unallocated.” The Company’s consolidated adjusted income from continuing operations before income tax is equal to the combined results of each of its segments less these unallocated corporate costs.
U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals
Our U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment includes a variety of branded prescription products related to treating and managing pain as well as our urology and men’s health, endocrinology and orthopedic products. The marketed products that are included in this segment include Lidoderm ® , OPANA ® ER, Voltaren ® Gel, Percocet ® , BELBUCA™, Aveed ® , Supprelin ® LA, and XIAFLEX ® , among others.
U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals
Our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment consists of a differentiated product portfolio including high barrier-to-entry products, first-to-file or first-to-market opportunities, which are difficult to formulate, difficult to manufacture or face complex legal and regulatory challenges. The product offerings of this segment include products in the pain management, urology, central nervous system disorders, immunosuppression, oncology, women’s health and cardiovascular disease markets, among others.

14


International Pharmaceuticals
Our International Pharmaceuticals segment includes a variety of specialty pharmaceutical products for the Canadian, Mexican, South African and world markets. Paladin, based in Canada, has a portfolio of products serving growing therapeutic areas, including ADHD, pain, women’s health and oncology. Somar, based in Mexico, develops, manufactures and markets high-quality generic, branded generic and over-the-counter products across key market segments including dermatology and anti-infectives. Litha, based in South Africa, is a diversified healthcare group providing services, products and solutions to public and private hospitals, pharmacies, general and specialist practitioners, as well as government healthcare programs.

Revenues generated by our International Pharmaceuticals segment are primarily attributable to Canada, Mexico and South Africa.
In 2015 , we realigned certain costs amongst our International Pharmaceuticals segment, U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment and Corporate unallocated costs based on how our chief operating decision maker currently reviews segment performance. As a result of this realignment, certain expenses included in our consolidated adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 have been reclassified among our various segments to conform to current period presentation. The net impact of these reclassification adjustments increased U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment and Corporate unallocated costs by $0.5 million and $5.9 million , respectively, with an offsetting $6.4 million decrease to International Pharmaceuticals segment costs for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and increased U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment and Corporate unallocated costs by $1.1 million and $13.5 million respectively, with an offsetting $14.6 million decrease to International Pharmaceuticals segment costs for the six months ended June 30, 2015 .
There were no material revenues from external customers attributed to an individual country outside of the United States during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 or 2015 .

(3)
Acquisition-related and integration items include costs directly associated with previous acquisitions of $24.3 million and $47.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, compared to $46.7 million and $82.2 million for the comparable 2015 periods. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , there is also a charge for changes in fair value of contingent consideration of $23.9 million and $13.2 million , respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , acquisition-related and integration costs are net of a benefit due to changes in the fair value of contingent consideration of $2.5 million and $3.3 million , respectively.
(4)
Separation benefits and other cost reduction initiatives include charges to increase excess inventory reserves of $6.4 million and $33.3 million related to the 2016 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals restructuring initiative, employee separation costs of $8.4 million and $15.2 million and other restructuring costs of $7.1 million and $11.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively. Amounts in the comparable 2015 periods include employee separation costs of $4.8 million and $37.2 million , respectively, and a $7.9 million charge recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2015, upon the cease use date of our Auxilium subsidiary’s former corporate headquarters, representing the liability for our remaining obligations under the respective lease agreement, net of estimated sublease income.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Financial Instruments
The financial instruments recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds and time deposits), restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, equity and cost method investments, accounts payable and accrued expenses, acquisition-related contingent consideration and debt obligations. Included in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents are money market funds representing a type of mutual fund required by law to invest in low-risk securities (for example, U.S. government bonds, U.S. Treasury Bills and commercial paper). Money market funds are structured to maintain the fund’s net asset value at  $1.00  per unit, which assists in providing adequate liquidity upon demand by the holder. Money market funds pay dividends that generally reflect short-term interest rates. Thus, only the dividend yield fluctuates. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of non-restricted and restricted cash and cash equivalents (including money market funds and time deposits), accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values.
Fair value guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Marketable Securities
Equity securities consist of investments in the stock of publicly traded companies, the values of which are based on quoted market prices and thus represent Level 1 measurements within the above-defined fair value hierarchy. These securities are not held to support current operations and are therefore classified as non-current assets. Equity securities are included in Marketable securities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 .
At the time of purchase, we classify our marketable securities as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities, depending on our intent at that time. Available-for-sale and trading securities are carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses recorded within other comprehensive income or net income, respectively. The Company reviews unrealized losses associated with available-for-sale securities to determine the classification as a “temporary” or “other-than-temporary” impairment. A temporary impairment results in an unrealized loss being recorded in other comprehensive income. An impairment that is viewed as other-than-temporary is recognized in net income. The Company considers various factors in determining the classification, including the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than the Company’s cost basis, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer or investee, and the Company’s ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.
Equity and Cost Method Investments
As of June 30, 2016 , we have investments that we account for using the equity or cost method of accounting totaling $6.0 million . The Company divested a joint venture investment owned through its Litha subsidiary during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company classified this joint venture investment as Assets held for sale as of December 31, 2015 in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets .
With respect to our other equity or cost method investments, which are included in Other Assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments. We considered various factors, including the operating results of our equity method investments and the lack of an unrealized loss position on our cost method investments.
Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration
The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities is determined using unobservable inputs. These inputs include the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows, the probability of success (achievement of the contingent event) and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the probability-weighted cash flows. Subsequent to the acquisition date, at each reporting period, the contingent consideration liability is remeasured at current fair value with changes recorded in earnings. Acquisition-related contingent consideration is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs; hence these instruments represent Level 3 measurements within the above-defined fair value hierarchy. See Recurring Fair Value Measurements below for additional information on acquisition-related contingent consideration.

(1) The components of inventory shown in the table above are net of allowance for obsolescence.
Inventory that is in excess of the amount expected to be sold within one year, which relates primarily to XIAFLEX ® inventory, is classified as long-term inventory and is not included in the table above. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , $30.2 million and $24.9 million , respectively, of long-term inventory was included in Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets .
The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with certain generic products prior to regulatory approval and product launch, when it is reasonably certain, based on management’s judgment of reasonably certain future commercial use and net realizable value, that the pre-launch inventories will be saleable. The determination to capitalize is made once the Company (or its third party development partners) has filed an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) that has been acknowledged by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the FDA) as containing sufficient information to allow the FDA to conduct its review in an efficient and timely manner and management is reasonably certain that all regulatory and legal requirements will be cleared. This determination is based on the particular facts and circumstances relating to the expected FDA approval of the generic drug product being considered, and accordingly, the time frame within which the determination is made varies from product to product. The Company could be required to write down previously capitalized costs related to pre-launch inventories upon a change in such judgment, or due to a denial or delay of approval by regulatory bodies, or a delay in commercialization, or other potential factors. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company had approximately $29.9 million and $12.0 million , respectively, in inventories related to generic products that were not yet available to be sold.

Endo tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Our annual assessment is performed as of October 1st.
Goodwill
Given the significant decline in the Company’s stock price, the Company initiated an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our U.S. Branded and U.S. Generics reporting units during the second quarter of 2016. We estimated the fair value of our reporting units through an income approach using a discounted cash flow model. Our discounted cash flow models are highly reliant on various assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows (including long-term growth rates), discount rate, and expectations about variations in the amount and timing of cash flows and the probability of achieving the estimated cash flows. These assumptions are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The discount rates applied to the estimated cash flows for our interim goodwill impairment tests ranged from  8.5%  to  9.0% , depending on the overall risk associated with the particular assets and other market factors. We believe the discount rates and other inputs and assumptions are consistent with those that a market participant would use. As a result of this interim analysis, the Company determined that the estimated fair value of our U.S. Branded and U.S. Generics reporting units exceeded their estimated net book value; therefore, an impairment charge was not required for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Intangible Assets
U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals Segment
During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the Company identified certain market and regulatory conditions impacting the commercial potential of certain indefinite and definite-lived intangible assets in our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment. Accordingly, we tested these assets for impairment and determined that the carrying value of certain of these assets was no longer fully recoverable, resulting in pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charges of $29.3 million and $40.0 million during the first and second quarters of 2016, respectively. In addition, during the first quarter of 2016, the Company recognized pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charges of $100.3 million related to the 2016 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals restructuring initiative, which resulted from the discontinuation of certain commercial products and the abandonment of certain IPR&D projects. See Note 4. Restructuring for discussion of our material restructuring initiatives.
NOTE 10. LICENSE AND COLLABORATION AGREEMENTS
Our subsidiaries have entered into certain license, collaboration and discovery agreements with third parties for product development. These agreements require our subsidiaries to share in the development costs of such products and the third parties grant marketing rights to our subsidiaries for such products.

23


The Company and its subsidiaries are generally required to make upfront payments as well as other payments upon successful completion of regulatory or sales milestones. In addition, these agreements generally require our subsidiaries to pay royalties on sales of the products arising from these agreements. These agreements generally permit termination by our subsidiaries with no significant continuing obligation.
Novartis AG, Novartis Consumer Health, Inc. and Sandoz, Inc.
The Company has exclusive U.S. marketing rights to Voltaren ® Gel pursuant to a License and Supply Agreement entered into in 2008 with and among Novartis AG and Novartis Consumer Health, Inc. (Novartis) (the 2008 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement). Effective March 1, 2015, Novartis Consumer Health, Inc. assigned the 2008 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement to its affiliate, Sandoz, Inc. On December 11, 2015, the Company, Novartis AG and Sandoz entered into a new License and Supply Agreement (as amended and in effect the 2015 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement ) effectively renewing our exclusive U.S. marketing and license rights to commercialize Voltaren ® Gel (the Branded Licensed Product) and granting the Company the exclusive right to launch an authorized generic of Voltaren ® Gel (the Generic Licensed Product, and, together with the Branded Licensed Product, the Licensed Product). Pursuant to the 2015 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement , the former 2008 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement expired on June 30, 2016 in accordance with its terms. The 2015 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement became effective on July 1, 2016 and will be accounted for as a business combination as of the effective date. In connection with the new agreement, the Company will be required to make an initial cash payment to Novartis of $16.2 million . The initial term of the 2015 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement will expire on June 30, 2023 with an automatic extension of the term for one year thereafter unless a written notice of non-extension is provided at least six months in advance of termination. Voltaren ® Gel royalties incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $11.9 million and $15.0 million , respectively.
Under the 2008 Voltaren® Gel Agreement, which was effective through June 30, 2016, the Company agreed (i) to make certain guaranteed minimum annual royalty payments beginning in the fourth year of the 2008 Voltaren® Gel Agreement (2008 Guaranteed Minimum Annual Royalty Payment), (ii) to expend a minimum amount of annual advertising and promotional expenses (A&P Expenditures) on the commercialization of Voltaren® Gel and (iii) to perform a minimum number of face-to-face one-on-one discussions with physicians and other health care practitioners (Details), each subject to certain limitations set forth in the 2008 Voltaren® Gel Agreement, including the requirement that a third party generic equivalent product not be launched. Under the 2015 Voltaren ® Gel Agreement, the Company agreed to make certain guaranteed minimum annual royalty payments (2015 Guaranteed Minimum Annual Royalty Payment) subject to certain limitations set forth in the 2015 Voltaren® Gel Agreement, including the requirement that a third party generic equivalent product is not launched. In March 2016, Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC (Amneal) launched a generic equivalent of Voltaren® Gel and, therefore, the Company’s obligations to make the 2008 Guaranteed Minimum Annual Royalty Payment, to expend A&P Expenditures and to perform Details for the remainder of the term of the 2008 Voltaren® Gel Agreement terminated as of the date of the launch of the generic equivalent product by Amneal. In addition, the Company’s obligation to make the 2015 Guaranteed Minimum Annual Royalty Payment also terminated.
XIAFLEX ® Out-license Agreement
We were party to an out-licensing agreement with Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (Actelion) to develop, supply and commercialize XIAFLEX ® in Canada and Australia. On July 1, 2016, the parties mutually agreed to terminate the collaboration for Canada and agreed upon certain transition services to be provided by Actelion until approval of the transfer of the drug identification number by the regulatory authority in Canada to the Company. For Australia, the collaboration agreement remains in effect until a new agreement is finalized. In consideration for the rights returned to the Company by Actelion, Endo made a cash payment of $5.5 million in July 2016.

The total fair value of the Company’s Total long-term debt at  June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , was  $7.9 billion  and  $8.6 billion , respectively.
The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is estimated using the quoted market prices for the same or similar debt issuances. Based on this valuation methodology, we determined these debt instruments represent Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.
Credit Facility
On April 4, 2016, the Company paid down the revolving credit facility in the amount of $225.0 million . As of June 30, 2016 , we have $998.0 million of remaining credit available through the revolving credit facilities.
The Company’s credit agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company believes to be usual and customary for a senior secured credit facility. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on capital expenditures, asset sales, mergers and acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dividends, investments and transactions with the Company’s affiliates. As of June 30, 2016 , we were in compliance with all such covenants.
NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Manufacturing, Supply and Other Service Agreements
Our subsidiaries contract with various third party manufacturers, suppliers and service providers to provide raw materials used in our subsidiaries’ products and semi-finished and finished goods, as well as certain packaging, labeling services, customer service support, warehouse and distribution services. These contracts include agreements with Novartis Consumer Health, Inc., Novartis AG, and Sandoz, Inc. (collectively, Novartis), Teikoku Seiyaku Co. Ltd. (Teikoku), Noramco, Inc. (Noramco), Grünenthal GmbH (Grünenthal), Sharp Corporation, UPS Supply Chain Solutions, Inc. and Jubilant HollisterStier Laboratories LLC (JHS). If, for any reason, we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities of any of the finished goods or raw materials or components required for our products or services needed to conduct our business, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
In addition to the manufacturing and supply agreements described above, we have agreements with various companies for clinical development services. Although we have no reason to believe that the parties to these agreements will not meet their obligations, failure by any of these third parties to honor their contractual obligations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Significant changes made during the six months ended June 30, 2016 to the agreements listed above and included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 are as follows:

25


Noramco, Inc.
Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2012 agreement with Noramco, the Company made payments to Noramco during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 totaling $16.0 million and $17.0 million , respectively. These payments are recorded in Cost of revenues in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations . In July 2016, the Company sent a notice of non-renewal to Noramco which will result in the agreement being terminated as of April 2017. The Company is not subject to any penalties as a result of this termination.
Jubilant HollisterStier Laboratories LLC
During the second quarter of 2016, we entered into a new agreement with JHS (JHS Agreement). Pursuant to the JHS Agreement, JHS fills and lyophilizes the XIAFLEX ®  bulk drug substance, which is manufactured by the Company, and produces sterile diluent. The initial term of the JHS agreement is  three  years, with automatic renewal provisions thereafter for subsequent  one -year terms, unless or until either party provides notification prior to expiration of the then current term of the contract. The Company is required to purchase a specified percentage of its total forecasted volume of XIAFLEX ®  from JHS each year, unless JHS is unable to supply XIAFLEX ®  within the timeframe established under such forecasts. Amounts purchased pursuant to the JHS Agreement were not material for any of the periods presented.
Legal Proceedings
We and certain of our subsidiaries are involved in various claims, legal proceedings and governmental investigations that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, including those relating to product liability, intellectual property, regulatory compliance and commercial matters. These and other matters that are not being disclosed herein are, in the opinion of our management, immaterial both individually and in the aggregate with respect to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. If and when such matters, in the opinion of our management, become material either individually or in the aggregate, we will disclose such matters. While we cannot predict the outcome of these legal proceedings and we intend to defend vigorously our position, an adverse outcome in any of these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our current and future financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
As of June 30, 2016 , our reserve for loss contingencies totaled $1.61 billion , of which $1.56 billion relates to our product liability accrual for vaginal mesh cases. We had previously announced that we had reached master settlement agreements with several of the leading plaintiffs’ law firms to resolve claims relating to vaginal mesh products sold by our AMS subsidiary. The agreements were entered into solely by way of compromise and settlement and are not in any way an admission of liability or fault. Although we believe there is a reasonable possibility that a loss in excess of the amount recognized exists, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss in excess of the amount recognized at this time.
Product Liability
We and certain of our subsidiaries have been named as defendants in numerous lawsuits in various U.S. federal and state courts, as well as in Canada and other countries, alleging personal injury resulting from the use of certain of our products and the products of our subsidiaries. These matters are described below in more detail.
We believe that certain settlements and judgments, as well as legal defense costs, relating to certain product liability matters are or may be covered in whole or in part under our product liability insurance policies with a number of insurance carriers. In certain circumstances, insurance carriers reserve their rights to contest or deny coverage. We intend to contest vigorously any and all such disputes with our insurance carriers and to enforce our rights under the terms of our insurance policies. Accordingly, we will record receivables with respect to amounts due under these policies only when the resolution of any dispute has been reached and realization of the potential claim for recovery is considered probable. Amounts recovered under our product liability insurance policies will likely be less than the stated coverage limits and may not be adequate to cover damages and/or costs relating to claims. In addition, there is no guarantee that insurers will pay claims or that coverage will otherwise be available.
Vaginal Mesh Cases. In October 2008, the FDA issued a Public Health Notification (October 2008 Public Health Notification) regarding potential complications associated with transvaginal placement of surgical mesh to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The notification provides recommendations and encourages physicians to seek specialized training in mesh procedures, to advise their patients about the risks associated with these procedures and to be diligent in diagnosing and reporting complications.
In July 2011, the FDA issued an update to the October 2008 Public Health Notification regarding mesh to further advise the public and the medical community of the potential complications associated with transvaginal placement of surgical mesh to treat POP and SUI. In the July 2011 update, the FDA stated that adverse events are not rare. Furthermore, the FDA questioned the relative effectiveness of transvaginal mesh as a treatment for POP as compared to non-mesh surgical repair. The July 2011 notification continued to encourage physicians to seek specialized training in mesh procedures, to consider and to advise their patients about the risks associated with these procedures and to be diligent in diagnosing and reporting complications. In January 2016, the FDA issued a statement reclassifying surgical mesh for transvaginal POP repair from Class II to Class III. Surgical mesh for SUI repair remains a Class II device.

In January 2012, the FDA ordered manufacturers of transvaginal surgical mesh used for POP and of single incision mini-slings for urinary incontinence, such as our AMS subsidiary, to conduct post-market safety studies and to monitor adverse event rates relating to the use of these products. AMS received a total of 19 class-wide post-market study orders regarding its pelvic floor repair and mini-sling products; however, the FDA agreed to place 16 of these study orders on hold for a variety of reasons. AMS commenced three of these post-market study orders; however, it recently notified the FDA of its termination of these studies and is in the process of winding them down in connection with the wind down of our Astora business.
Since 2008, we and certain of our subsidiaries, including AMS and/or Astora, have been named as defendants in multiple lawsuits in the U.S. in various state courts and in a multidistrict litigation (MDL) in the Southern District of West Virginia (MDL No. 2325), in Canada, where various class action and individual complaints are pending, and in other countries alleging personal injury resulting from the use of transvaginal surgical mesh products designed to treat POP and SUI. Plaintiffs in these suits allege various personal injuries including chronic pain, incontinence and inability to control bowel function and permanent deformities, and seek compensatory and punitive damages, where available.
We and certain plaintiffs’ counsel representing mesh-related product liability claimants have entered into various Master Settlement Agreements (MSAs) and other settlement agreements regarding settling up to approximately 49,000 filed and unfiled mesh claims handled or controlled by the participating counsel. These MSAs, which were executed at various times since June 2013, were entered into solely by way of compromise and settlement and are not in any way an admission of liability or fault by us or any of our subsidiaries. All MSAs are subject to a process that includes guidelines and procedures for administering the settlements and the release of funds. In certain cases, the MSAs provide for the creation of Qualified Settlement Funds (QSFs) into which funds may be deposited pursuant to certain schedules set forth in those agreements. All MSAs have participation thresholds requiring participation by the majority of claims represented by each law firm party to the MSA. If certain participation thresholds are not met, then we will have the right to terminate the settlement with that law firm. In addition, one agreement gives us a unilateral right of approval regarding which claims may be eligible to participate under that settlement. To the extent fewer claims than are authorized under an agreement participate, the total settlement payment under that agreement will be reduced by an agreed-upon amount for each such non-participating claim. Funds deposited in QSFs are included in restricted cash and cash equivalents in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets .
Distribution of funds to any individual claimant is conditioned upon the receipt of documentation substantiating the validity of the claim, a full release and a dismissal of the entire action or claim as to all AMS parties and affiliates. Prior to receiving funds, an individual claimant shall represent and warrant that liens, assignment rights or other claims that are identified in the claims administration process have been or will be satisfied by the individual claimant. The amount of settlement awards to participating claimants, the claims evaluation process and procedures used in conjunction with award distributions, and the negotiations leading to the settlement, shall be kept confidential by all parties and their counsel.
We expect that valid claims under the MSAs will continue to be settled. However, we intend to vigorously contest pending and future claims that are invalid or in excess of the maximum claim amounts under the MSAs. We are also aware of a substantial number of additional claims or potential claims, some of which may be invalid or contested, for which we lack sufficient information to determine whether any potential liability is probable, and such claims have not been included in our estimated product liability accrual. We intend to contest these claims vigorously.
As of the date of this report, we believe that the current product liability accrual includes all known claims for which liability is probable and estimable. In order to evaluate whether a mesh claim is probable of a loss, we must obtain and evaluate certain information pertaining to each individual claim, including but not limited to the following items: the name and social security number of the plaintiff, evidence of an AMS implant, the date of implant, the date the claim was first asserted to AMS, the date that plaintiff’s counsel was retained, and most importantly, medical records establishing the injury alleged. Without access to at least this information and the opportunity to evaluate it, we are not in a position to determine whether a loss is probable for such claims. It is currently not possible to determine the validity or outcome of any additional or potential claims and such claims may result in additional losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. We will continue to monitor the situation, including with respect to any additional claims of which we may later become aware, and, if appropriate, make further adjustments to the product liability accrual based on new information.

Approximately $1.40 billion of the total liability amount shown above is classified as Current portion of legal settlement accrual, with the remainder to be paid over time in accordance with the MSA agreements and classified as Long-term legal settlement accrual, less current portion, net in the June 30, 2016 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets . Charges related to vaginal mesh product liability for all periods presented are reported in Discontinued operations, net of tax in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations .
We expect to fund the payments under all current settlement agreements over the course of 2016 and 2017, with completion by December 31, 2017. As the funds are disbursed out of the QSFs from time to time, the product liability accrual will be reduced accordingly with a corresponding reduction to restricted cash and cash equivalents. In addition, we may pay cash distributions to settle disputes separate from the QSFs, which will also decrease the product liability accrual but will not decrease restricted cash and cash equivalents.
In addition, we have been contacted regarding a civil investigation that has been initiated by a number of state attorneys general into mesh products, including transvaginal surgical mesh products designed to treat POP and SUI. In November 2013, we received a subpoena relating to this investigation from the state of California, and have subsequently received additional subpoenas from other states. We are currently cooperating with this investigation. At this time, we cannot predict or determine the outcome of this investigation or reasonably estimate the amount or range of amounts of fines or penalties, if any, that might result from a settlement or an adverse outcome from this investigation.
Testosterone Cases. We and certain of our subsidiaries, including Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. (EPI) and Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Auxilium), along with other pharmaceutical manufacturers, have been named as defendants in lawsuits alleging personal injury resulting from the use of prescription medications containing testosterone, including Fortesta ® Gel, Delatestryl ® , Testim ® , TESTOPEL ® and Striant ® . Plaintiffs in these suits allege various personal injuries, including pulmonary embolism, stroke and other vascular and/or cardiac injuries and seek compensatory and/or punitive damages, where available. In June 2014, an MDL was formed to include claims involving all testosterone replacement therapies filed against EPI, Auxilium, and other manufacturers of such products, and certain transferable cases pending in federal court were coordinated in the Northern District of Illinois as part of MDL No. 2545. In addition to the federal cases filed against EPI and Auxilium that have been transferred to the Northern District of Illinois as tag-along actions to MDL No. 2545, litigation has also been filed against EPI in the Court of Common Pleas Philadelphia County and in certain other state courts. In July 2014, a class action complaint was filed in Ontario, Canada against EPI. Litigation similar to that described above may also be brought by other plaintiffs in various jurisdictions, and cases brought in federal court will be transferred to the Northern District of Illinois as tag-along actions to MDL No. 2545. However, we cannot predict the timing or outcome of any such litigation, or whether any such additional litigation will be brought against us. We intend to contest the litigation vigorously and to explore all options as appropriate in our best interest. As of July 29, 2016 , approximately 1,084 cases are currently pending against us; some of which may have been filed on behalf of multiple plaintiffs. By order dated July 5, 2016 and with plaintiffs’ consent, a Canadian Court dismissed without prejudice the class action complaint filed in Ontario, Canada against EPI.
In November 2015, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois entered an order granting defendants’ motion to dismiss claims involving certain testosterone products that were approved pursuant to ANDAs, including TESTOPEL ® . Plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration and clarification of this order. In March 2016, the District Court granted plaintiffs’ motion in part and entered an order permitting certain claims to go forward to the extent they are based on allegations of fraudulent off-label marketing.

In November 2014, a civil class action complaint was filed in the Northern District of Illinois against EPI, Auxilium, and various other manufacturers of testosterone products on behalf of a proposed class of health insurance companies and other third party payors that had paid for certain testosterone products, alleging that the marketing efforts of EPI, Auxilium, and other defendant manufacturers with respect to certain testosterone products constituted racketeering activity in violation of 18 U.S.C. §1962(c), and other civil Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act claims. Further, the complaint alleges that EPI, Auxilium, and other defendant manufacturers violated various state consumer protection laws through their marketing of certain testosterone products and raises other state law claims. In March 2015, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint and plaintiffs responded by filing amended complaints. In February 2016, the District Court granted in part and denied in part defendants’ motion to dismiss. The District Court declined to dismiss plaintiffs’ claims for conspiracy to commit racketeering activity in violation of 18 U.S.C. §1962(d) and claims for negligent misrepresentation. In April 2016, plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint, which defendants moved to dismiss in June 2016. In August 2016, the court denied the motion as to the claims against EPI, Auxilium and certain other defendants, and directed that answers be filed by August 31, 2016. In October 2015, a similar civil class action complaint was filed against EPI and other defendant manufacturers in the Northern District of Illinois. Similar litigation may be brought by other plaintiffs. We are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss for this matter, if any, but we will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
Unapproved Drug Litigation
In September 2013, the State of Louisiana filed a Petition for Damages against certain of our subsidiaries, EPI and Generics Bidco I, LLC, and over 50 other pharmaceutical companies alleging the defendants or their subsidiaries marketed products that were not approved by the FDA. See State of Louisiana v. Abbott Laboratories, Inc., et al ., C624522 (19th Jud. Dist. La.). The State of Louisiana sought damages, fines, penalties, attorneys’ fees and costs under various causes of action. In October 2015, the court ordered judgment for Defendants on their exception for no right of action. The case is currently on appeal to the Louisiana Court of Appeals, First District.
We intend to contest the above case vigorously and to explore other options as appropriate in our best interest. Litigation similar to that described above may also be brought by other plaintiffs in various jurisdictions. However, we cannot predict the timing or outcome of any such litigation, or whether any such litigation will be brought against us. We are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss for this matter, if any.
Opioid-Related Litigations, Subpoenas and Document Requests
In June 2014, Corporation Counsel for the City of Chicago filed suit in Illinois state court against multiple defendants, including our subsidiaries, Endo Health Solutions Inc. (EHSI) and EPI, for alleged violations of city ordinances and other laws relating to defendants’ alleged opioid sales and marketing practices. In June 2014, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. In December 2014, defendants moved to dismiss the Amended Complaint and in May 2015, the District Court issued an order granting that motion in part, dismissing the case as to EHS and EPI. In August 2015, plaintiff filed its Second Amended Complaint against multiple defendants, including EPI and ESHI. In November 2015, defendants moved to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint.
In May 2014 and in June 2014, a lawsuit was filed in California Superior Court (Orange County) in the name of the People of the State of California, acting by and through County Counsel for Santa Clara County and the Orange County District Attorney, against multiple defendants, including our subsidiaries EHSI and EPI. The complaint asserts violations of California’s statutory Unfair Competition and False Advertising laws, as well as asserting a claim for public nuisance, based on alleged misrepresentations in connection with sales and marketing of opioids, including OPANA ® . Plaintiff seeks declaratory relief, restitution, civil penalties (including treble damages), abatement, an injunction, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Defendants, which include our subsidiaries, filed various motions attacking the pleadings, including one requesting that the Superior Court refrain from proceeding under the doctrines of primary jurisdiction and equitable abstention. That motion was granted in August 2015, and the case has been stayed pending further proceedings and findings by the FDA. In June 2016, plaintiffs filed a motion to lift the stay and to amend the complaint. Defendants, included EHSI and EPI, opposed that motion. Following a hearing in July 2016, the court provided plaintiffs an opportunity to seek leave to file another amended complaint.
In December 2015, a lawsuit was filed in the Chancery Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County, Mississippi by the State of Mississippi against multiple defendants, including our subsidiaries EHSI and EPI. The complaint alleges violations of Mississippi’s Consumer Protection Act and various other claims arising out of defendants’ alleged opioid sales and marketing practices. Plaintiff seeks declaratory relief, restitution, civil penalties, abatement, an injunction, and attorneys’ fees and costs. In March 2016, defendants moved to dismiss the complaint.
In September 2014, our subsidiaries EHSI and EPI received a Request for Information from the State of Tennessee Office of the Attorney General and Reporter seeking documents and information regarding the sales and marketing of opioids, including OPANA ® ER. We are currently cooperating with the State of Tennessee Office of the Attorney General and Reporter in this investigation.

In August 2015, our subsidiaries EHSI and EPI received a subpoena from the State of New Hampshire Office of the Attorney General seeking documents and information regarding the sales and marketing of opioids, including OPANA ® ER. We were cooperating with the State of New Hampshire Office of the Attorney General in its investigation until we learned that it was being assisted in the investigation by outside counsel hired on a contingent fee basis. The New Hampshire Attorney General initiated an action in the Superior Court for the State of New Hampshire to enforce the subpoena despite this contingent fee arrangement, and we (along with other companies that had received similar subpoenas) responded by filing a motion for protective order to preclude the use of contingent fee counsel. In addition, we filed a separate motion seeking declaratory relief. In March 2016, the Superior Court granted the motion for protective order on the grounds that the contingent fee agreement was invalid as ultra vires and that the office of the Attorney General had acted outside of its statutory authority in entering into the agreement with the contingent fee counsel. In April 2016, both the New Hampshire Attorney General and the companies that received subpoenas from the New Hampshire Attorney General, including EHSI and EPI, appealed, in part, the March 2016 Superior Court order to the New Hampshire Supreme Court. Those appeals are pending. In April 2016, the New Hampshire Attorney General also entered into a new agreement with outside counsel. In response, the companies that received a subpoena from the New Hampshire Attorney General, including EHSI and EPI, moved to enforce a part of the protective order issued by the Superior Court in March 2016 that is not being appealed by EHSI and EPI. That motion is pending.
In March 2016, EHSI and EPI received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the Department of Justice for the State of Oregon seeking documents and information regarding the sales and marketing of OPANA ® ER. We are currently cooperating with the State of Oregon in its investigation.
With respect to the litigations brought on behalf of the City of Chicago, the People of the State of California and the State of Mississippi, we intend to contest those matters vigorously. We are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, for these matters but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
Antitrust Litigation and Investigations
Multiple direct and indirect purchasers of Lidoderm ® have filed a number of cases against our subsidiary EPI and co-defendants Teikoku Seiyaku Co., Ltd., Teikoku Pharma USA, Inc. (collectively, Teikoku) and Actavis plc (now Allergan plc) and a number of its subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as Allergan, Actavis or Watson). Certain of these actions have been asserted on behalf of classes of direct and indirect purchasers, while others are individual cases brought by one or more alleged direct or indirect purchasers. The complaints in these cases generally allege that EPI, Teikoku and Actavis entered into an anticompetitive conspiracy to restrain trade through the settlement of patent infringement litigation concerning U.S. Patent No. 5,827,529 (the ‘529 patent) and other patents. Some of the complaints also allege that Teikoku wrongfully listed the ‘529 patent in the Orange Book as related to Lidoderm ® , that EPI and Teikoku commenced sham patent litigation against Actavis and that EPI abused the FDA citizen petition process by filing a citizen petition and amendments solely to interfere with generic companies’ efforts to obtain FDA approval of their versions of Lidoderm ® . The cases allege violations of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 1, 2) and various state antitrust and consumer protection statutes as well as common law remedies in some states. These cases generally seek damages, treble damages, disgorgement of profits, restitution, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees.
The U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1407, issued an order in April 2014 transferring these cases as In Re Lidoderm Antitrust Litigation , MDL No. 2521, to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. In June 2016, motions for class certification were filed on behalf of classes of direct and indirect purchasers. Responses to those motions are due in August 2016. Trial is currently scheduled to begin in 2017. Litigation similar to that described above may also be brought by other plaintiffs in various jurisdictions, and cases brought in federal court will be transferred to the Northern District of California as tag-along actions to In Re Lidoderm Antitrust Litigation .
Multiple direct and indirect purchasers of OPANA ® ER have filed cases against our subsidiaries EHSI and EPI, and other pharmaceutical companies, including Penwest Pharmaceuticals Co., which we subsequently acquired, and Impax Laboratories Inc. (Impax), all of which have been transferred and coordinated for pretrial proceedings in the Northern District of Illinois by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. Some of these cases have been filed on behalf of putative classes of direct and indirect purchasers, while others have been filed on behalf of individual retailers. These cases generally allege that the agreement reached by EPI and Impax to settle patent infringement litigation concerning multiple patents pertaining to OPANA ® ER and EPI’s introduction of the re-formulation of OPANA ® ER violated antitrust laws. The complaints allege violations of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 1, 2), various state antitrust and consumer protection statutes, as well as state common law. These cases generally seek damages, treble damages, disgorgement of profits, restitution, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees. In February 2016, the District Court issued orders (i) denying defendants’ motion to dismiss the claims of the direct purchasers, (ii) denying in part and granting in part defendants’ motion to dismiss the claims of the indirect purchasers, but giving them permission to file amended complaints and (iii) granting defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaints filed by certain retailers, but giving them permission to file amended complaints. In response to the District Court’s orders, the indirect purchasers filed an amended complaint to which the defendants have filed a renewed motion to dismiss certain claims and certain retailers have also filed amended complaints. We cannot predict whether or not additional cases similar to those described above will be filed by other plaintiffs or the timing or outcome of any such litigation.

In February 2014, our subsidiary, EPI received a CID (the February 2014 CID) from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the FTC). The FTC issued a second CID to EPI in March 2014 (the March 2014 CID). The February 2014 CID requested documents and information concerning EPI’s settlement agreements with Actavis and Impax settling the OPANA ® ER patent litigation, EPI’s Development and Co-Promotion Agreement with Impax, and its settlement agreement with Actavis settling the Lidoderm ® patent litigation, as well as information concerning the marketing and sales of OPANA ® ER and Lidoderm ® . The March 2014 CID requested documents and information concerning EPI’s acquisition of U.S. Patent No. 7,852,482 (the ‘482 patent), as well as additional information concerning certain litigation relating to, and the marketing and sales of OPANA ® ER. The FTC also issued subpoenas for investigational hearings (similar to depositions) to our employees and former employees. In March 2016, the FTC filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against us and our subsidiary EPI, as well as against Allergan, Impax, and Teikoku, alleging generally that the settlement agreements with Actavis and Impax, respectively, constituted, in whole or part, unfair methods of competition in violation Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a). The FTC also alleges that one provision of the agreement with Actavis violated Section 7 of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. § 18. The complaint seeks injunctive and declaratory relief and other remedies, including restitution and disgorgement. In July 2016, a motion to dismiss was filed on behalf of all defendants.
We are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss for these matters, if any, but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
In November 2014, EPI received a CID from the State of Florida Office of the Attorney General issued pursuant to the Florida Antitrust Act of 1980, Section 542.28 and seeking documents and other information concerning EPI’s settlement agreement with Actavis settling the Lidoderm ® patent litigation, as well as information concerning the marketing and sales of Lidoderm ® .
In February 2015, EHSI and EPI received a CID for Production of Documents and Information from the State of Alaska Office of Attorney General issued pursuant to Alaska’s Antitrust and Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection law seeking documents and other information concerning settlement agreements with Actavis and Impax settling the OPANA ® ER patent litigation as well as information concerning EPI’s settlement agreement with Actavis settling the Lidoderm patent litigation, as well as information concerning the marketing and sales of Lidoderm.
In February 2016, EPI received a subpoena from the State of South Carolina Office of the Attorney General seeking documents and other information concerning EPI’s settlement agreement with Actavis settling the Lidoderm ® patent litigation, as well as information concerning the marketing and sales of Lidoderm ® .
In December 2014, our subsidiary, Par, received a Subpoena to Testify Before Grand Jury from the Antitrust Division of the DOJ and issued by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The subpoena requests documents and information focused primarily on product and pricing information relating to Par’s authorized generic version of Lanoxin (digoxin) oral tablets and Par’s generic doxycycline products, and on communications with competitors and others regarding those products. Par is currently cooperating fully with the investigation.
In January 2009, the FTC filed a lawsuit against our subsidiary, Par, in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, which was subsequently transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, and which alleged violations of antitrust law arising out of Par’s settlement of certain patent litigation concerning the generic version of AndroGel ® . The FTC complaint generally seeks a finding that Par’s settlement agreement violates Section 5(a) of the Federal Trade Commission Act, and a permanent injunction against Par’s ability to engage in certain types of patent settlements in the future. Beginning in February 2009, certain private plaintiffs, including distributors and retailers, filed similar litigation. Generally, the remaining private plaintiff suits seek equitable relief, unspecified damages and costs.
In February 2010, the District Court granted a motion to dismiss the FTC’s claims and granted in part and denied in part a motion to dismiss the claims of the private plaintiffs. In April 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11 th Circuit affirmed the District Court’s decision on the motion to dismiss the FTC’s claims. In September 2012, the District Court granted a motion for summary judgment against the private plaintiffs’ claims of sham litigation. In July 2013, the Supreme Court of the U.S. reversed the Court of Appeals’ and District Court’s decisions and remanded the case to the District Court for further proceedings. In May 2016, those private plaintiffs representing the putative class of indirect purchasers voluntarily dismissed their case against Par with prejudice. Claims by the direct purchasers and the FTC are still pending. We intend to contest this litigation vigorously and to explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
In February 2015, Par received a CID from the Office of the Attorney General for the State of Alaska seeking production of certain documents and information regarding Par’s settlement of the AndroGel ® patent litigation as well as documents produced in the on-going litigation filed by the FTC.

We are currently cooperating with the DOJ, the State of Florida Office of the Attorney General, the State of Alaska Office of the Attorney General and the State of South Carolina Office of the Attorney General in their respective investigations. Investigations similar to these antitrust matters described above may be brought by others. We are unable to predict the outcome of these investigations or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss for these investigations, if any, but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
In July 2016, Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC (Fresenius) filed a complaint against Par and its subsidiary in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey alleging that Par engaged in an anticompetitive scheme to exclude competition from the market for vasopressin solution for intravenous injection in view of Par’s Vasostrict ® (vasopressin) product. The complaint alleges violations of Sections 1 and 2 of The Sherman Antitrust Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1, 2, as well as the antitrust law and common law of the state of New Jersey, alleging that Par entered into exclusive supply agreements with active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturers that prevent Fresenius from being able to obtain vasopressin API in order to file an ANDA to obtain approval for its own vasopressin product. Fresenius seeks actual, treble and punitive damages in an unspecified amount, attorney’s fees and costs and injunctive relief and demands a trial by jury. We are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, for this matter. We intend to contest the litigation vigorously and to explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
False Claims Act Litigation
The Attorneys General of Florida, Indiana and Virginia and the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (the USOPM) have issued subpoenas, and the Attorneys General of Michigan, Tennessee, Texas, and Utah have issued CIDs, to our subsidiary, Par, among other companies. The demands generally request documents and information pertaining to allegations that certain of Par’s sales and marketing practices caused pharmacies to substitute ranitidine capsules for ranitidine tablets, fluoxetine tablets for fluoxetine capsules, and two 7.5 mg buspirone tablets for one 15 mg buspirone tablet, under circumstances in which some state Medicaid programs at various times reimbursed the new dosage form at a higher rate than the dosage form being substituted. Par has provided documents in response to these subpoenas to the respective Attorneys General and the USOPM. The aforementioned subpoenas and CIDs culminated in the federal and state law qui tam action brought on behalf of the U.S. and several states by Bernard Lisitza. The complaint was unsealed in August 2011. Lisitza’s corrected second amended complaint generally seeks (i) a finding that defendants violated and be enjoined from future violations of the federal False Claims Act and state false claims acts; (ii) treble damages and maximum civil penalties for each violation of the federal False Claims Act and state false claims acts; (iii) an applicable percentage share of the proceeds; and (iv) expenses, fees, and costs. The U.S. intervened in this action and filed a separate complaint in September 2011, alleging claims for violations of the Federal False Claims Act and common law fraud. The U.S.’s second corrected complaint generally seeks (i) treble damages and civil penalties for violations under the federal False Claims Act and (ii) compensatory and punitive damages for common law fraud. The states of Michigan and Indiana have also intervened as to claims arising under their respective state false claim acts, common law fraud, and unjust enrichment. Michigan’s complaint generally seeks (i) treble damages and civil penalties and (ii) common law compensatory and punitive damages. Indiana’s amended complaint generally seeks treble damages, costs, and attorney’s fees. We intend to vigorously defend this lawsuit. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss for this matter, if any.
Pricing Matters
In March 2016, EPI received a CID from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York. The CID requests documents and information regarding contracts with Pharmacy Benefit Managers regarding Frova ® . We are currently cooperating with this investigation. We are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, for these matters but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
Beginning in January 2016, several complaints, including multiple class action complaints, have been filed in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas and in the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and the District of Rhode Island against us and certain of our subsidiaries, including Par, along with other manufacturers of certain generic pharmaceutical products, seeking compensatory and punitive or treble damages, as well as injunctive relief and alleging that certain marketing and pricing practices by the defendant companies violated state law, including consumer protection law and/or federal and state antitrust laws. The U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1407, issued an order in August 2016 transferring certain of these cases as In Re Generic Digoxin and Doxycycline Antitrust Litigation , MDL No. 2724, to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Additional similar claims may be brought by other plaintiffs in various jurisdictions.
In December 2015, EPI received Interrogatories and Subpoena Duces Tecum from the State of Connecticut Office of Attorney General requesting information regarding pricing of certain of its generic products, including Doxycycline Hyclate, Amitriptyline Hydrochloride, Doxazosin Mesylate, Methotrexate Sodium and Oxybutynin Chloride. We are currently cooperating with this investigation.

We are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, for these matters but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest.
Megace ES ® (megestrol acetate oral suspension) Cases
In September 2011, our subsidiary, Par, along with EDT Pharma Holdings Ltd. (Elan) (now known as Alkermes Pharma Ireland Limited), filed a complaint against TWi Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (TWi) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 7,101,576 because TWi filed an ANDA with a Paragraph IV certification seeking FDA approval of a generic version of Megace ®  ES. A bench trial was held in October 2013, and in February 2014, the District Court issued a decision in favor of TWi, finding all asserted claims of the 7,101,576 patent invalid for obviousness. Par appealed. In August 2014, the District Court issued a preliminary injunction enjoining TWi’s launch of its generic product pending disposition of the appeal. In December 2014, the Federal Circuit reversed the District Court’s decision, remanding for further findings of fact. In March 2015, the District Court issued another preliminary injunction enjoining TWi’s launch of its generic product pending disposition of the case on remand. In July 2015, the District Court issued a new decision in favor of TWi, finding all of the asserted claims invalid, and TWi launched its generic product.  Par appealed again, and in December 2015, the District Court’s decision in favor of TWi was affirmed without opinion. In February 2016, TWi moved the District Court to recover its lost profits, which TWi alleges in the amount of $16 million , resulting from the previous injunctions to which the District Court subjected TWi, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. Par has opposed TWi’s motion. We believe that a loss is probable and we have incorporated our best estimate of this loss into our reserve for loss contingencies. It is possible that the outcome of this matter could result in an additional loss above the amount reserved, which could be material.
In June 2013, Par, along with Alkermes Pharma Ireland Limited, filed a complaint against Breckenridge Pharmaceutical, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 6,592,903 and 7,101,576 because Breckenridge filed an ANDA with a Paragraph IV certification seeking FDA approval of a generic version of Megace ® ES. The complaint sought (i) a finding of infringement, validity, and/or enforceability; and (ii) a permanent injunction be entered, terminating at the expiration of the patents-in-suit. A stipulation to stay the proceedings was entered in July 2014. In January 2016, we terminated the case by filing a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice.
In June 2015, Par, along with Alkermes Pharma Ireland Limited, filed a complaint against Breckenridge Pharmaceutical, Inc., TWi Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and TWi Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 9,040,088 because the defendants had filed ANDAs seeking FDA approval of generic versions of Megace ® ES.  In August 2015, Par and Alkermes Pharma Ireland Limited filed an additional complaint in the same court against TWi and Breckenridge alleging infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 9,101,540 and 9,101,549, followed by a third complaint in Delaware District Court alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 9,107,827. Our complaint sought (i) a finding of infringement, validity and/or enforceability; and (ii) a permanent injunction. In January 2016, we terminated the cases by filing stipulations of dismissal with prejudice.
Securities Related Class Action Litigation
In May 2016, a putative class action entitled Craig Friedman v. Endo International plc Company, Rajiv de Silva and Suketu Upadhyay was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York by an individual shareholder on behalf of himself and all similarly situated shareholders. The lawsuit alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act based on the Company’s revision of its 2016 earnings guidance and its disclosure of a CID from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York regarding contracts with Pharmacy Benefit Managers concerning Frova ® . The revised earnings guidance and the CID were disclosed in a Form 8-K (and accompanying press release) and a Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2016 and May 6, 2016, respectively. The complaint seeks class certification, damages in an unspecified amount and attorney’s fees and costs. In July 2016, a number of shareholders filed motions to be appointed lead plaintiff and for the appointment of lead counsel. Those motions have not been decided by the court.  We are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or the ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, and at this time cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, for this matter, but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest and we intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously.

Paragraph IV Certifications on OPANA ® ER
In late 2012, two patents (U.S. Patent Nos. 8,309,122 and 8,329,216) were issued to EPI covering OPANA ® ER (oxymorphone hydrochloride extended-release tablets CII). In December 2012, EPI filed a complaint against Actavis (now Allergan) in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York for patent infringement based on its ANDA for a non-crush-resistant generic version of OPANA ® ER. In May 2013 and June 2013, EPI filed similar suits in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the following applicants for non-crush-resistant OPANA ® ER: Roxane Laboratories, Inc. (Roxane) and Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited (Ranbaxy). Those suits allege infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 7,851,482, 8,309,122, and 8,329,216. In July 2013, Actavis and Roxane were granted FDA approval to market all strengths of their respective non-crush-resistant formulations of OPANA ® ER. A trial in this case was held from March 2015 through April 2015 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. In August 2015, the District Court ruled that all defendants infringed the claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,309,122 and 8,329,216. The District Court also ruled that the defendants failed to show that U.S. Patent Nos. 8,309,122 and 8,329,216 were invalid, enjoined the defendants from launching their generic products until the expiration of those patents and directed Actavis to withdraw its generic product within 60 days . In October 2015, the District Court tolled the 60 -day period until it decided two pending post-trial motions. In April 2016, the District Court issued an order upholding its August 2015 ruling in EPI’s favor and confirming the prior injunction against the manufacture or sale of the generic version of the non-crush-resistant OPANA ® ER currently offered by Actavis, the U.S. generics business of Allergan, and the additional approved but not yet marketed generic version of the product developed by Roxane. The time for appealing the ruling has not yet expired and we expect the defendants to appeal. We intend to continue vigorously asserting our intellectual property rights and to oppose any such appeal.
We intend to defend vigorously our intellectual property rights and to pursue all available legal and regulatory avenues in defense of the non-crush-resistant formulation OPANA ® ER, including enforcement of the product’s intellectual property rights and approved labeling. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful. If we are unsuccessful, competitors that already have obtained, or are able to obtain, FDA approval of their products may be able to launch their generic versions of non-crush-resistant OPANA ® ER prior to the applicable patents’ expirations. Additionally, we cannot predict or determine the timing or outcome of related litigation but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest. In addition to the above litigation, it is possible that another generic manufacturer may also seek to launch a generic version of non-crush-resistant OPANA ® ER and challenge the applicable patents.
From September 21, 2012 through October 30, 2013 , EPI and its partner Grünenthal received Paragraph IV Notices from each of Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva), Amneal Pharmaceuticals, LLC (Amneal), ThoRx Laboratories, Inc. (ThoRx), Allergan, Impax and Ranbaxy, advising of the filing by each such company of an ANDA for a generic version of the formulation of OPANA ® ER designed to be crush-resistant. These Paragraph IV Notices refer to U.S. Patent Nos. 8,075,872, 8,114,383, 8,192,722, 8,309,060, 8,309,122 and 8,329,216, which variously cover the formulation of OPANA ® ER, a highly pure version of the active pharmaceutical ingredient and the release profile of OPANA ® ER. EPI filed lawsuits against each of these filers in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. Each lawsuit was filed within the 45 -day deadline to invoke a 30 -month stay of FDA approval pursuant to the Hatch-Waxman legislative scheme. We intend, and have been advised by Grünenthal that it too intends, to defend vigorously the intellectual property rights covering the formulation of OPANA ® ER designed to be crush-resistant and to pursue all available legal and regulatory avenues in defense of crush-resistant OPANA ® ER, including enforcement of the product’s intellectual property rights and approved labeling. A trial in this case was held from March 2015 through April 2015 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the remaining filers. In August 2015, the District Court issued an Opinion holding that all defendants infringed the claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,309,060, 8,309,122 and 8,329,216. The Opinion also held that the defendants had shown that U.S. Patent No. 8,309,060 was invalid, but that the defendants had failed to show that U.S. Patent Nos. 8,309,122 and 8,329,216 were invalid. The District Court also issued an Order enjoining the defendants from launching their generic products until the expiration of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,309,122 and 8,329,216. The time for appealing that Opinion and Order has not yet expired and we expect the defendants to appeal the decision. We intend to continue to vigorously assert our intellectual property and oppose appeals by the defendants. However, there can be no assurance that we and/or Grünenthal will be successful. If we are unsuccessful and Teva, Amneal, ThoRx, Allergan or Impax is able to obtain FDA approval of its product, generic versions of crush-resistant OPANA ® ER may be launched prior to the applicable patents’ expirations in 2023 through 2029. Additionally, we cannot predict or determine the timing or outcome of this defense but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest. In addition to the above litigation, it is possible that another generic manufacturer may also seek to launch a generic version of crush-resistant OPANA ® ER and challenge the applicable patents.
In August 2014 and October 2014, the U.S. Patent Office issued U.S. Patent Nos. 8,808,737 and 8,871,779 respectively, which cover a method of using OPANA ® ER and a highly pure version of the active pharmaceutical ingredient of OPANA ® ER. In November 2014, EPI filed lawsuits against Teva, ThoRx, Actavis, Impax, Ranbaxy, Roxane, Amneal, and Sandoz Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging infringement of these new patents, which expire in 2027 and 2029, respectively. On November 17, 2015, the District Court held the ‘737 patent invalid for claiming unpatentable subject matter. That patent has been dismissed from all suits and the suits administratively closed as to that patent, subject to appeal at the end of the case on the ‘779 patent. Beginning July 11, 2016, a three-day trial was held in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Teva and Amneal for infringement of the ‘779 patent. No decision has been issued in that case as of the date of this report.

Paragraph IV Certification on Fortesta ® Gel
In January 2013, EPI and its licensor Strakan Limited received a notice from Watson (now Allergan) advising of the filing by Watson of an ANDA for a generic version of Fortesta ® (testosterone) Gel. In February 2013, EPI filed a lawsuit against Watson in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall division. Because the suit was filed within the 45 -day period under the Hatch-Waxman Act for filing a patent infringement action, we believe that it triggered an automatic 30 -month stay of approval under the Act. A two-day trial was held on or about February 26 and 27, 2015. In August 2015, the District Court issued an Order holding that the asserted patents are not invalid and are infringed by Watson’s ANDA. As a result, the District Court ordered that that the effective date for the approval of Watson’s ANDA to be the date no sooner than the latest expiration date of the ’913 Patent and the ’865 Patent in November of 2018. Watson filed an appeal in October 2015.
We intend, and have been advised by Strakan Limited that it too intends, to defend vigorously Fortesta ® Gel and to pursue all available legal and regulatory avenues in defense of Fortesta ® Gel, including enforcement of the product’s intellectual property rights and approved labeling. However, there can be no assurance that we and/or Strakan will be successful. If we and/or Strakan are unsuccessful and Watson is able to obtain FDA approval of its product, Watson may be able to launch its generic version of Fortesta ® Gel prior to the applicable patents’ expirations in 2018. Additionally, we cannot predict or determine the timing or outcome of this litigation but will explore all options as appropriate in our best interest. In addition to the above litigation, it is possible that another generic manufacturer may also seek to launch a generic version of Fortesta ® Gel and challenge the applicable patents.
Other Legal Proceedings
In addition to the above proceedings, proceedings similar to those described above may also be brought in the future. Additionally, we are involved in, or have been involved in, arbitrations or various other legal proceedings that arise from the normal course of our business. We cannot predict the timing or outcome of these claims and other proceedings. Currently, neither we nor our subsidiaries are involved in any other legal proceedings that we expect to have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Share-Based Compensation
As discussed in Note 3. Discontinued Operations and Held for Sale , the operating results of the Company’s AMS business is reported as Discontinued operations, net of tax in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. However, as share-based compensation is not material for this business, amounts in this Note 14. Shareholders' Equity have not been adjusted to exclude the impact of this business.
The Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $14.6 million and $29.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, compared to $10.9 million and $62.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. The share-based compensation expense recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2015 includes a charge related to the acceleration of Auxilium employee equity awards at closing of $37.6 million . As of June 30, 2016 , the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to all non-vested share-based compensation awards amounted to $96.6 million . As of June 30, 2016 , the weighted average remaining requisite service period of the non-vested stock options was 2.8 years and for non-vested restricted stock units was 2.3 years.

NOTE 16. INCOME TAXES
During the three months ended June 30, 2016 , the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $555.3 million on $165.5 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax , compared to $12.7 million of tax benefit on $103.6 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax during the comparable 2015 period. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company implemented a legal entity restructuring as part of its continuing integration of our businesses that resulted in the realization of a $644.0 million discrete tax benefit arising from outside basis differences, reduced by a $196.0 million valuation allowance. The reorganization also provides operating flexibility and benefits and reduces the impact related to potential future limits that could apply to the use of tax attributes by utilizing most of the Company’s attributes to offset the gain in the intercompany sale that stepped-up the tax basis of the U.S. Generics Pharmaceutical business assets. The Company also benefited from an improved mix of jurisdictional pre-tax income and losses. The tax benefit for the comparable 2015 period was primarily related to benefits resulting from losses from continued operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016 , the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $674.0 million on $372.9 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax , compared to $179.6 million of tax benefit on $120.0 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax during the comparable 2015 period. The tax benefit for the current period is primarily related to benefits arising from losses from continued operations and the net discrete tax benefit recorded in the second quarter discussed above. The tax benefit for the comparable 2015 period was primarily related to benefits resulting from the expected realization of deferred tax assets for certain components of our AMS business that was held for sale in such period.

Basic net income (loss) per share data is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share data is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and, if there is net income from continuing operations attributable to Endo ordinary shareholders during the period, the dilutive impact of ordinary share equivalents outstanding during the period. Ordinary share equivalents are measured under the treasury stock method.
For the three months ended June 30, 2016 , stock options and stock awards of 5.9 million were excluded from the diluted share calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. All stock options and stock awards were excluded from the diluted share calculation for the three months ended June 30, 2015 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive, as the Company was in a loss position. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 , stock options and stock awards of 4.7 million were excluded from the diluted share calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , stock options and stock awards of 1.0 million were excluded from the diluted share calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Item 2.          Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations describes the principal factors affecting the results of operations, liquidity and capital resources and critical accounting estimates at Endo International plc . This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying quarterly unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2015 ( Annual Report ). Our Annual Report includes additional information about our significant accounting policies, practices and the transactions that underlie our financial results, as well as a detailed discussion of the most significant risks and uncertainties associated with our financial and operating results. Except for the historical information contained in this Report, including the following discussion, this Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See "Forward-Looking Statements" beginning on page i of this Report.
Unless otherwise indicated or required by the context, references throughout to “Endo,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to financial information and transactions of Endo International plc and its consolidated subsidiaries.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our quarterly results have fluctuated in the past, and may continue to fluctuate. These fluctuations are primarily due to (1) the timing of mergers, acquisitions and other business development activity, (2) the timing of new product launches, (3) purchasing patterns of our customers, (4) market acceptance of our products, (5) the impact of competitive products and products we recently acquired, (6) pricing of our products and (7) litigation-related charges. These fluctuations are also attributable to charges incurred for compensation related to share-based payments, amortization of intangible assets, asset impairment charges and certain upfront, milestone and other payments made or accrued pursuant to acquisition or licensing agreements.

Consolidated Results Review
Total Revenues. Total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 25% to $920.9 million and 30% to $1,884.4 million , respectively, from the comparable 2015 periods. This revenue increase was primarily attributable to revenues related to our September 2015 acquisition of Par. The increase s were partially offset by decreased revenues for certain products in our U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment, driven mainly by decrease d Voltaren ®  Gel, Lidoderm ® , OPANA ® ER and Frova ® revenues related to generic competition and decreased revenues from our legacy U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment, driven by a decrease as a result of competitive pressure on commoditized generic products .

Cost of revenues and gross margin. Cost of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 44% to $632.2 million and 60% to $1,320.9 million , respectively, from the comparable 2015 periods. These increases were primarily attributable to increased costs related to our acquisition of Par and charges to increase excess inventory reserves of approximately $59 million at our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment due to the underperformance of certain products and the planned discontinuance of several products as part of the 2016 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals restructuring initiative announced in May 2016. Gross margins for the three months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d to 31% from 40% in the comparable 2015 period and gross margins for the six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d to 30% from 43% in the comparable 2015 period. These decreases were primarily attributable to the mix of revenue being more heavily weighted toward lower margin generic pharmaceutical product sales, increased intangible asset amortization of $95.9 million and $212.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, the charges to increase excess inventory reserves mentioned above and a decline in higher margin branded pharmaceutical product sales due to generic competition on certain products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 25% to $193.1 million and 1% to $371.4 million , respectively, from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were primarily a result of incremental employee, facility and other Selling, general and administrative expenses related to the acquisition of Par. The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was partially offset by a charge during the first quarter of 2015 related to the acceleration of Auxilium employee equity awards at closing of $37.6 million and restructuring charges during the first quarter of 2015 of $26.0 million related to the Auxilium acquisition, which did not recur in 2016.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 166% to $50.6 million and 150% to $92.3 million , respectively, from the comparable 2015 periods. The increase s were primarily attributable to the acquisition of Par.
Litigation-related and other contingencies, net . Charges for Litigation-related and other contingencies, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $5.3 million and $10.5 million , respectively, compared to $6.9 million and $19.9 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. The Company’s legal proceedings and other contingent matters are described in more detail in Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies  of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q .

Asset impairment charges . Asset impairment charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $40.0 million and $169.6 million , respectively, compared to $70.2 million and $77.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 . The pre-tax, non-cash impairment charges of $40.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 resulted from certain market conditions impacting the commercial potential of certain intangible assets in our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment. These charges are in addition to the $129.6 million pre-tax, non-cash impairment charges on certain intangible assets recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016 , including pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charges of $100.3 million related to the 2016 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals restructuring initiative, which resulted from the discontinuation of certain commercial products and the abandonment of certain IPR&D projects. The pre-tax, non-cash impairment charges of $70.2 million recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2015 were related to certain intangible assets of our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment, resulting from certain market conditions impacting the commercial potential of certain intangible assets in our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment. As a result of a sustained downturn in the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market and additional competition and pricing pressure related to certain of our U.S. Generics and Canadian based products, several significant intangible assets are at risk of becoming impaired if we were to experience a decline in future market conditions below our current estimates. Specifically, the excess of undiscounted cash flows over carrying amount for our TESTOPEL, Methotrexate and Canada Base Prescription intangible assets were all less than 5 percent of carrying amount. In addition, any sustained downturns in other areas of our business could result in additional impairments of our definite and indefinite lived assets, which could be material.
Acquisition-related and integration items . Acquisition-related and integration items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 9% to $48.2 million and decrease d 23% to $60.7 million , respectively, from the comparable 2015 periods. The charges during the three months ended June 30, 2016 were primarily driven by $23.9 million of expense resulting from the change in the fair value of contingent consideration and integration costs associated with our acquisition of Par. The change in contingent consideration was due to favorable market conditions impacting the commercial potential of the underlying products. The decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was due to prior year acquisition-related and integration costs associated with our acquisition of Auxilium, which closed during the first quarter of 2015. This reduction was partially offset by integration costs associated with our acquisition of Par, which closed during the third quarter of 2015, and $13.2 million of expense recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2016 resulting from the change in the fair value of certain contingent consideration. The change in contingent consideration was due to favorable market conditions impacting the commercial potential of the underlying products.

Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 40% to $113.1 million and increase d 49% to $230.6 million , respectively, from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were primarily attributable to an increase in our average total indebtedness to $8.4 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $5.5 billion in the comparable 2015 period and to $8.5 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $5.1 billion in the comparable 2015 period. Our period-over-period average total indebtedness has increased due primarily to the financing of the Par acquisition.

Foreign currency loss (gain), net results from the remeasurement of the Company’s foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company recognized an other than temporary impairment of our Litha joint venture investment totaling  $18.9 million , reflecting the excess carrying value of this investment over its estimated fair value. The Company also incurred $14.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015 related to unused commitment fees primarily associated with financing for the Auxilium acquisition.
Income tax benefit . During the three months ended June 30, 2016 , the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $555.3 million on $165.5 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax , compared to $12.7 million of tax benefit on $103.6 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax during the comparable 2015 period. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company implemented a legal entity restructuring as part of its continuing integration of our businesses that resulted in the realization of a $644.0 million discrete tax benefit arising from outside basis differences, reduced by a $196.0 million valuation allowance. The reorganization also provides operating flexibility and benefits and reduces the impact related to potential future limits that could apply to the use of tax attributes by utilizing most of the Company’s attributes to offset the gain in the intercompany sale that stepped-up the tax basis of the U.S. Generics Pharmaceutical business assets. The Company also benefited from improved mix of jurisdictional pretax income and losses. The tax benefit for the comparable 2015 period was primarily related to benefits resulting from losses from continued operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016 , the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $674.0 million on $372.9 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax , compared to $179.6 million of tax benefit on $120.0 million of loss from continuing operations before income tax during the comparable 2015 period. The tax benefit for the current period is primarily related to benefits arising from losses from continued operations and the net discrete tax benefit recorded in the second quarter discussed above. The tax benefit for the comparable 2015 period was primarily related to benefits resulting from the expected realization of deferred tax assets for certain components of our AMS business that was held for sale in such period.
Discontinued operations, net of tax . As a result of our decision to sell our AMS business and wind down our Astora business, which comprises the entirety of our former Devices segment, the operating results of this business are reported as Discontinued operations, net of tax in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The results of our discontinued operations totaled $46.2 million and $91.3 million of loss , net of tax, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $159.6 million and $385.8 million of loss , net of tax, in the comparable 2015 periods.
The fluctuation in Discontinued operations, net of tax, during the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015 was mainly due to a decrease in charges relating to mesh litigation of $268.6 million , offset partially by a decrease in income from operations resulting from the sale of the Men’s Health and Prostate Health components in the third quarter of 2015, and certain tax benefits recorded as part of the divestiture of the Men’s Health and Prostate Health businesses in 2015 and a full valuation allowance recorded on the Company’s U.S. net deferred tax assets in 2016.
The fluctuation during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015 was mainly due to a decrease in charges relating to mesh litigation of $271.3 million and a decrease in asset impairment charges of $201.4 million , offset partially by a decrease in income from operations resulting from the sale of the Men’s Health and Prostate Health components in the third quarter of 2015, and certain tax benefits recorded as part of the divestiture of the Men’s Health and Prostate Health businesses in 2015 and a full valuation allowance recorded on the Company’s U.S. net deferred tax assets in 2016.
2016 Outlook
We estimate that our 2016 total revenues will be between $3.87 billion and $4.03 billion . This estimate is based on our expectation of growth for Company revenues from our core products and the full year impact of our 2015 acquisitions, including our acquisition of Par, which closed on September 25, 2015. We consistently apply principles of efficiency to streamline general and administrative expenses, optimize commercial spend and focus research and development efforts onto lower-risk projects and higher-return investments to Endo’s current business. The Company also intends to seek long-term, durable growth both internally and through strategic acquisitions in order to support its objective of transforming Endo into a leading global specialty pharmaceuticals company. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.
Business Segment Results Review
The three reportable business segments in which the Company operates are: (1)  U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals , (2) U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals and (3) International Pharmaceuticals . These segments reflect the level at which the chief operating decision maker regularly reviews financial information to assess performance and to make decisions about resources to be allocated. Each segment derives revenue from the sales or licensing of its respective products and is discussed in more detail below.

41

Table of Contents

We evaluate segment performance based on each segment’s adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax , a financial measure not determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which we define as loss from continuing operations before income tax and before certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; acquisition-related and integration items, including transaction costs, earn-out payments or adjustments, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and bridge financing costs; cost reduction and integration-related initiatives such as separation benefits, retention payments, other exit costs and certain costs associated with integrating an acquired company’s operations; excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans; asset impairment charges; amortization of intangible assets; inventory step-up recorded as part of our acquisitions; certain non-cash interest expense; litigation-related and other contingent matters; gains or losses from early termination of debt activities; foreign currency gains or losses on intercompany financing arrangements; and certain other items that the Company believes do not reflect its core operating performance .
Certain of the corporate general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company are not attributable to any specific segment. Accordingly, these costs are not allocated to any of the Company’s segments and are included in the results below as Corporate unallocated, including interest expense. The Company’s consolidated adjusted income from continuing operations before income tax is equal to the combined results of each of its segments less these unallocated corporate costs.
We refer to adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax in making operating decisions because we believe it provides meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance. For instance, we believe that this measure facilitates its internal comparisons to our historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ results. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to supplemental information used in our financial and operational decision-making. In addition, we have historically reported similar financial measures to our investors and believe that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in our current financial reporting. Further, we believe that adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax may be useful to investors as we are aware that certain of our significant shareholders utilize adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax to evaluate our financial performance. Finally, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax is utilized in the calculation of adjusted diluted income per share, which is used by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in assessing the performance and compensation of substantially all of our employees, including our executive officers.
There are limitations to using financial measures such as adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax . Other companies in our industry may define adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax differently than we do. As a result, it may be difficult to use adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax or similarly named adjusted financial measures that other companies may use to compare the performance of those companies to our performance. Because of these limitations, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax should not be considered as a measure of the income generated by our business or discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing reconciliations of our segment adjusted income from continuing operations before income tax to our consolidated loss from continuing operations before income tax , which is determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations .

Pain Management
Net sales of Lidoderm ® for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 10% to $27.0 million and decrease d 16% to $46.8 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These decreases were attributable to volume decreases partially offset by an increase in price. In September 2013 Actavis (now Allergan) launched a generic form of Lidoderm ® , in May 2014 the Company’s U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals launched its authorized generic of Lidoderm ® and in August 2015 Mylan launched a generic form of Lidoderm ® . To the extent additional competitors are able to launch generic versions of Lidoderm ® , our revenues could decline further.
Net sales of OPANA ® ER for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 11% to $38.6 million and decrease d 7% to $83.2 million from the comparable 2015 periods. Net sales continue to be impacted by competing generic versions of the non-crush resistant formulation of OPANA ® ER, which launched beginning in early 2013. To the extent additional competitors are able to launch generic versions of the non-crush resistant formulation OPANA ® ER, our revenues could decline further. However, in April 2016, the U.S. District Court affirmed a ruling upholding two of the Company’s patents covering OPANA ® ER. In addition, in April 2016, the U.S. District Court issued an order upholding its August 2015 ruling in the Company’s favor and confirming the prior injunction against the manufacture or sale of the generic version of non-crush resistant OPANA ® ER currently offered by Actavis, the U.S. generics business of Allergan, and the additional approved but not yet marketed generic version of the product developed by Roxane. As a result, the generic product sold by Actavis was removed from the market and other generic versions of the product will not be launched in the near term by other generic companies.
Net sales of Percocet ® for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 10% to $35.7 million and increase d 1% to $69.3 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were attributable to price increases, partially offset by volume decreases.
Net sales of Voltaren ® Gel for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 46% to $27.3 million and decrease d 35% to $63.0 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These decrease s were primarily attributable to the March 24, 2016 launch of Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC’s generic equivalent of Voltaren® Gel. Subject to FDA approval, it is possible one or more additional competing generic products could potentially enter the market during 2016, which could negatively impact future sales of Voltaren ®  Gel.
Specialty Pharmaceuticals
Net sales of Supprelin ® LA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 19% to $21.2 million and increase d 13% to $38.5 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These revenue increase s were primarily attributable to volume and price increases.
Net sales of XIAFLEX ® for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 6% to $42.4 million and increase d 27% to $86.5 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These revenue increases were primarily attributable to volume increases in addition to a full period of Auxilium revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 .

Branded Other
Net sales of Branded Other products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 5% to $96.1 million and increase d 12% to $209.9 million from the comparable 2015 periods. The decrease during the three months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily driven by decreased Frova ® revenues related to generic competition. The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of Auxilium and Par which we acquired on January 29, 2015 and September 25, 2015 , respectively.

Net sales of U.S. Generics Base for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 55% to $331.1 million and increase d 48% to $678.5 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were attributable to approximately $179 million and $359 million in revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, as a result of the acquisition of Par, partially offset by a decrease as a result of competitive pressure on commoditized generic products .
Net sales of Sterile Injectables for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d to $126.2 million and $249.9 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were attributable to the acquisition of Par. Sterile Injectables include net sales of Vasostrict ® , the first and only vasopressin injection with a New Drug Application (NDA) approved by the FDA, which were $77.2 million and $157.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively. In June 2016, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued Endo a new Vasostrict ® patent, which has an expiration date of January 30, 2035. Any ANDA applicant seeking FDA approval for a generic version of Vasostrict ® prior to expiration of the patent has to notify Par of its ANDA filing before it can obtain FDA approval. Any ANDA filer whose application was not received prior to submission of the new patent information would be subject to a 30-month stay of marketing approval by the FDA upon the initiation of Hatch-Waxman litigation by Par against the ANDA filer.
Net sales of New Launches and Alternative Dosages for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 13% to $108.0 million and decrease d 7% to $220.3 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These decrease s were primarily attributable to increased competitive pressure on patches, ophthalmics and other alternative doses, partially offset by launch products from the Par acquisition.

International Pharmaceuticals . Revenues from our International Pharmaceuticals segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 17% to $67.2 million and decrease d 10% to $138.5 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These decreases were primarily attributable to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency rates in addition to decreases in Litha revenues as a result of its recent divestiture of non-core assets.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2015 , we realigned certain costs amongst our International Pharmaceuticals segment, U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment and Corporate unallocated costs based on how our chief operating decision maker currently reviews segment performance. As a result of this realignment, certain expenses included in our consolidated adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 have been reclassified among our various segments to conform to current period presentation. The net impact of these reclassification adjustments increased U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment and Corporate unallocated costs by $0.5 million and $5.9 million , respectively, with an offsetting $6.4 million decrease to International Pharmaceuticals segment costs for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and increased U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment and Corporate unallocated costs by $1.1 million and $13.5 million respectively, with an offsetting $14.6 million decrease to International Pharmaceuticals segment costs for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . The realignment of these expenses did not impact periods prior to 2015.
U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals . Adjusted income from continuing operations before income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 decrease d 28% to $122.4 million and decrease d 11% to $291.2 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These decreases are primarily attributable to decreased Voltaren ®  Gel, Lidoderm ® , OPANA ® ER and Frova ® revenues related to generic competition.
U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals . Adjusted income from continuing operations before income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 47% to $215.0 million and increase d 29% to $426.7 million from the comparable 2015 periods. In 2016 , revenues and gross margins increase d primarily due to the Par acquisition on September 25, 2015 . These increases were partially offset by a decrease resulting from competitive pressure on commoditized generic products and charges to increase excess inventory reserves of approximately $26 million at our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment due to the underperformance of certain products.
International Pharmaceuticals . Adjusted income from continuing operations before income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 7% to $20.6 million and increase d 18% to $42.4 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were primarily attributable to an increase in gross margin resulting from the divestiture of certain lower margin products and decreased operating expenses, partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency rates.
Corporate unallocated . Corporate unallocated adjusted loss from continuing operations before income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increase d 41% to $161.7 million and increase d 39% to $314.8 million from the comparable 2015 periods. These increase s were primarily attributable to the previously discussed increase in interest expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our principal source of liquidity is cash generated from operations. Our principal liquidity requirements are for working capital for operations, licenses, milestone payments, capital expenditures, debt service payments and acquisitions. The Company’s working capital was $(288.4) million at June 30, 2016 compared to $(21.8) million at December 31, 2015 . Working capital at June 30, 2016 includes restricted cash and cash equivalents of $381.6 million held in Qualified Settlement Funds for mesh product liability settlement agreements, which is expected to be paid to qualified claimants within the next twelve months. Working capital at December 31, 2015 included restricted cash and cash equivalents of $579.0 million held in Qualified Settlement Funds for mesh product liability settlement agreements.
We have historically had broad access to financial markets that provide liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents , which primarily consisted of bank deposits, time deposits and money market accounts, totaled $667.8 million at June 30, 2016 compared to $272.3 million at December 31, 2015 .
During and beyond 2016 , we expect cash generated from operations together with our cash, cash equivalents and the revolving credit facilities to be sufficient to cover cash needs for working capital and general corporate purposes, certain contingent liabilities, payment of contractual obligations, principal and interest payments on our indebtedness, capital expenditures, ordinary share repurchases and any regulatory and/or sales milestones that may become due.
At this time, we cannot accurately predict the effect of certain developments on the rate of sales growth, such as the degree of market acceptance, patent protection and exclusivity of our products, the impact of competition, the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts and the outcome of our current efforts to develop, receive approval for and successfully launch our near-term product candidates. Additionally, we may not be successful in implementing, or may face unexpected changes or expenses in connection with our strategic direction, including the potential for opportunistic corporate development transactions. Any of the above could adversely affect our future cash flows. We may need to obtain additional funding for future transactions, to repay our outstanding indebtedness, or for our future operational needs, and we cannot be certain that funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any issuances of equity securities or convertible securities could have a dilutive effect on the ownership interest of our current shareholders and may adversely impact net income per share in future periods. An acquisition may be accretive or dilutive and, by its nature, involves numerous risks and uncertainties. As a result of our acquisition efforts we are likely to experience significant charges to earnings for merger and related expenses (whether or not our efforts are successful) that may include transaction costs, closure costs or costs of restructuring activities.
Borrowings . At June 30, 2016 , the Company’s indebtedness includes a credit agreement with combined outstanding principal borrowings of $3,769.1 million and additional availability of approximately $998.0 million under the revolving credit facilities.
The credit agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company believes to be usual and customary for a senior secured credit facility. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on capital expenditures, asset sales, mergers and acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dividends, investments and transactions with the Company’s affiliates. As of June 30, 2016 , we were in compliance with all such covenants.
At June 30, 2016 , the Company’s indebtedness includes senior notes with aggregate principal amounts totaling $4.7 billion . These notes mature between 2022 and 2025, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the respective indentures. Interest rates on these notes range from 5.375% to 7.25% . These notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company’s subsidiaries and are issued or guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, as applicable, by all of our significant subsidiaries (other than Astora Women's Health Technologies, Grupo Farmacéutico Somar, S.A. de C.V., and Litha Healthcare Group Limited) and certain of our other subsidiaries, except for the 7.25% Senior Notes due 2022, which are issued by Endo Health Solutions Inc. and guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the guarantors named in the Fifth Supplemental Indenture relating to such notes.
The indentures governing our various senior notes contain affirmative and negative covenants that the Company believes to be usual and customary for senior unsecured indentures. The negative covenants, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur certain additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, make restricted payments, sell certain assets, agree to any restrictions on the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make payments to us, create certain liens, merge, consolidate, or sell substantially all of the Company’s assets, or enter into certain transactions with affiliates. As of June 30, 2016 , we were in compliance with all covenants.
During the remainder of 2016 , we anticipate that any excess cash will be used to pay down our borrowings.
Credit ratings. The Company’s corporate credit ratings assigned by Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s are  B1 with a negative outlook and  B+  with a negative outlook, respectively.

Working capital decrease d by $266.6 million from December 31, 2015 to June 30, 2016 . Since December 31, 2015 , our current assets have decreased by $802 million . Changes in current assets impacting working capital were largely driven by a $140 million reduction in accounts receivable primarily as a result of less revenues in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the fourth quarter of 2015; a $126 million decrease in inventories resulting from continued amortization of inventory step-up related to our recent business acquisitions and excess inventory reserves recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2016 ; and a $198 million net differential between cash distributions made from the Qualified Settlement Funds to mesh-related product liability claimants and cash distributions into the Qualified Settlement Funds. The remaining changes in current assets did not have a significant impact on working capital. Since December 31, 2015 , our current liabilities have decreased by $535 million . Changes in current liabilities impacting working capital were driven largely by a decrease in accrued liabilities of approximately $122 million , primarily associated with decreased sales deductions as a result of less gross revenues in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the fourth quarter of 2015. The remaining changes in current liabilities did not have a significant impact on working capital.

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities . Net cash provided by operating activities was $554.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $77.5 million used in operating activities in the comparable 2015 period.
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities represents the cash receipts and cash disbursements from all of our activities other than investing activities and financing activities. Changes in cash from operating activities reflect, among other things, the timing of cash collections from customers, payments to suppliers, managed care organizations, government agencies, collaborative partners and employees, as well as tax payments and refunds in the ordinary course of business.
The $632.2 million fluctuation in Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the comparable 2015 period was primarily the result of a $707.3 million federal income tax refund received during the second quarter of 2016, offset partially by the timing of cash collections and cash payments related to our operations.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities . Net cash provided by investing activities was $137.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $906.3 million used in investing activities in the comparable 2015 period.

48

Table of Contents

This $1,043.3 million fluctuation in cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the comparable 2015 period relates primarily to cash used for acquisitions in 2015 of $915.9 million . In addition, $524.4 million of cash was released from the Qualified Settlement Funds (QSFs) for mesh settlements during the six months ended June 30, 2016 , which was $139.4 million more than cash released from the QSFs during the prior year. Also, we paid $326.8 million into QSFs for mesh settlements during the six months ended June 30, 2016 , which was $50.3 million less than cash paid into the QSFs during the prior year. These net increases were partially offset by the release of $40 million of cash from the escrow account associated with the acquisition of the remaining outstanding share capital of Litha during the six months ended June 30, 2015 . Cash payments into QSFs and escrow accounts result in a cash outflow for investing activities. Cash releases from QSFs and escrow accounts result in a cash inflow for investing activities and a corresponding outflow for cash provided by (used in) operating activities. Payments related to our QSFs are further described in  Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies  of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q .
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities . Net cash used in financing activities was $297.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $3,116.4 million provided by financing activities in the comparable 2015 period.
Items contributing to the $3,414.1 million fluctuation in cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the comparable 2015 period include a decrease in issuance of ordinary shares of $2,299.6 million , a decrease in proceeds from the issuance of notes of $1,200.0 million , a decrease in proceeds from draw of revolving debt of $175.0 million and an increase in repayments of revolving debt of $50.0 million , partially offset by a decrease in the repurchase of convertible notes of $247.8 million , a decrease in payments related to the issuance of ordinary shares of $67.0 million and a decrease in cash buy-outs of controlling interests of $39.6 million related to the acquisition of the remaining share capital of Litha.
Fluctuations. Our quarterly results have fluctuated in the past and may continue to fluctuate. These fluctuations may be due to the timing of new product launches, purchasing patterns of our customers, market acceptance of our products, the impact of competitive products and pricing, asset impairment charges, restructuring costs, including separation benefits, business combination transaction costs, upfront, milestone and certain other payments made or accrued pursuant to licensing agreements and changes in the fair value of financial instruments and contingent assets and liabilities recorded as part of a business combination. Further, a substantial portion of our total revenues are through three wholesale drug distributors who in turn supply our products to pharmacies, hospitals and physicians. Accordingly, we are potentially subject to a concentration of credit risk with respect to our trade receivables.
Contractual Obligations. As of June 30, 2016 , there were no material changes in our contractual obligations from those disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 2015 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on  February 29, 2016 .
Inflation. We do not believe that inflation had a material adverse effect on our financial statements for the periods presented.
Off-balance sheet arrangements. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our critical accounting estimates have not changed materially since December 31, 2015 , except as described below. For additional discussion of the Company’s critical accounting estimates, see “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 2015 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on  February 29, 2016 .
As further described in Note 9, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we initiated an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our U.S. Branded and U.S. Generics reporting units during the second quarter of 2016 as a result of the significant decline in our stock price. The fair values of our reporting units are dependent upon our estimates of future discounted cash flows and other factors. Our estimates of future cash flows include assumptions concerning future operating performance and economic conditions and may differ from actual future cash flows. Estimated future cash flows are discounted to present value using a market participant, weighted average cost of capital. The financial and credit market volatility directly impacts certain inputs and assumptions used to develop the weighted average cost of capital such as the risk-free interest rate, industry beta, debt interest rate, and our market capital structure. Therefore, changes in these assumptions may affect our fair value estimate and the result of the impairment test.
We have not made any substantial changes to our methodology used in our annual impairment test since our previous assessment. Determination of the fair value of a reporting unit is a matter of judgment and involves the use of estimates and assumptions, which are based on management’s best estimates at the time.
We use an income approach (discounted cash flow approach) for the determination of fair value of our reporting units. Our projected cash flows incorporate many assumptions, the most significant of which include variables such as future sales, growth rates, operating margin, and the discount rates applied.

49

Table of Contents

Assumptions related to revenue, growth rates and operating margin are based on management’s annual and ongoing forecasting, budgeting and planning processes and represent our best estimate of the future results of operations across the company. These estimates are subject to many assumptions, such as the economic environment across the segments in which we operate, end demand for our products and competitor actions. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease our estimated discounted future cash flows and the resulting estimated fair value of our reporting units, and could result in the fair value of a reporting unit being less than its carrying value in the first step of the impairment test. If the use of these assets, the projections of future cash flows, or weighted average cost of capital change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges, which could be material. An erosion of future business results in any of the business units or significant declines in our stock price could result in an impairment charge to goodwill or other long-lived assets, which could be material. Our analysis indicated the fair values of the U.S. Branded and U.S. Generics reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values; therefore, an impairment charge was not required for the three months ended June 30, 2016. An increase of 50 basis points to our assumed discount rates used in testing any of these reporting units would not have changed the results of our analysis. In addition, a 10% reduction of annual cash flows used in testing any of these reporting units would not have changed the results of our analysis.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
For discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q .
Item 3.          Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in the financial markets, including interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our variable rate indebtedness associated with the term loan portion and revolving credit facilities portion of our credit agreement. To the extent we utilize amounts under our term loans and revolving credit facilities, we would be exposed to additional interest rate risk. At June 30, 2016 , our term loans include principal amount of floating-rate debt of $3.8 billion . Borrowings under our Term Loan A facility bear interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin plus London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), while borrowings under our Term Loan B facility bear interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin plus LIBOR, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75% . A hypothetical 1% increase in LIBOR over the  0.75%  floor would result in $37.7 million in incremental annual interest expense.
As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , we had no other assets or liabilities with significant interest rate sensitivity.
Investment Risk
At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , we had immaterial investments in available-for-sale securities, primarily associated with equity securities of publicly traded companies. Any decline in value below our original investments will be evaluated to determine if the decline in value is considered temporary or other-than-temporary. An other-than-temporary decline in fair value would be included as a charge to earnings.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We operate and transact business in various foreign countries and are therefore subject to risks associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company manages this foreign currency risk, in part, through operational means including managing foreign currency revenues in relation to same currency costs as well as managing foreign currency assets in relation to same currency liabilities. The Company is also exposed to the potential earnings effects from intercompany foreign currency assets and liabilities that arise from normal trade receivables and payables and other intercompany loans. Additionally, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries maintain their books of record in currencies other than their respective functional currencies. These subsidiaries’ financial statements are remeasured into their respective functional currencies using current or historical exchange rates. Such remeasurement adjustments could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.
All assets and liabilities of our international subsidiaries, which maintain their financial statements in local currency, are translated to U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and short term inter-company receivables from foreign subsidiaries are included in Other expense, net .
Fluctuations in foreign currency rates resulted in a net loss of $1.6 million and a net loss of $2.6 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively. This compares to a net loss of $2.6 million and a net gain of $20.6 million in the comparable 2015 periods.
Based on the Company’s significant foreign currency denominated intercompany loans existing at June 30, 2016 , we estimate that a 10% appreciation or depreciation in the underlying currencies of our foreign currency denominated intercompany loans, relative to the U.S. Dollar, would result in approximately $5.0 million in incremental foreign currency gains or losses, respectively.

In addition, we purchase Lidoderm ® in U.S. dollars from Teikoku Seiyaku Co., Ltd., a Japanese manufacturer. As part of the purchase agreement with Teikoku, there is a price adjustment feature that prevents the cash payment in U.S. dollars from falling outside of a certain pre-defined range in Japanese yen even if the spot rate is outside of that range.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a significant impact on our revenues or operations.
Item 4.          Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of June 30, 2016 . Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2016 .
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company acquired certain entities during the year ended December 31, 2015 . Particularly as it relates to the Par acquisition, as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, management elected to exclude this acquisition from its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. The Company began to integrate the Par business into its internal control over financial reporting structure during the six months ended June 30, 2016 . As such, there have been changes during the six months ended June 30, 2016 associated with the establishment and continued integration of internal control over financial reporting with respect to Par.

ENDO INTERNATIONAL PLC
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2015 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
1.
Establishment and Purpose.
The purpose of the Endo International plc Amended and Restated 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to promote the interests of the Company and the shareholders of the Company by providing directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company with appropriate incentives and rewards to encourage them to enter into and continue in the employ or service of the Company, to acquire a proprietary interest in the long-term success of the Company and to reward the performance of individuals in fulfilling long-term corporate objectives.
2.
Administration of the Plan.
The Plan shall be administered by a Committee appointed by the Board of Directors. The Committee shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, subject to and not inconsistent with the express terms and provisions of the Plan, to administer the Plan and to exercise all the powers and authorities either specifically granted to it under the Plan or necessary or advisable in the administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, the authority to grant Awards; to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which Awards shall be granted; to determine the type and number of Awards to be granted (including whether an Option granted is an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option); to determine the number of shares of stock to which an Award may relate and the terms, conditions, restrictions and performance criteria, if any, relating to any Award; to determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled, cancelled, forfeited, exchanged or surrendered; to make adjustments in the performance goals that may be required for any award in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company (to the extent not inconsistent with Section 162(m) of the Code, if applicable), or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles; to construe and interpret the Plan and any Award; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of Agreements; and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.
The Committee may, in its absolute discretion, without amendment to the Plan, (a) accelerate the date on which any Option granted under the Plan becomes exercisable, waive or amend the operation of Plan provisions respecting exercise after termination of service or otherwise adjust any of the terms of such Option, and (b) accelerate the vesting date, or waive any condition imposed hereunder, with respect to any share of Restricted Stock, or other Award or otherwise adjust any of the terms applicable to any such Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Sections 4(d) and 4(e), neither the Board of Directors, the Committee nor their respective delegates shall have the authority, without first obtaining the approval of the Company's shareholders, to (a) re-price (or cancel and/or re-grant) any Option, Stock Appreciation Right or, if applicable, other Award at a lower exercise, base or purchase price, (b) cancel underwater Options or Stock Appreciation Rights in exchange for cash or (c) grant an Option in consideration for, or conditioned on, the delivery of Company Stock to the Company


        



in payment of the exercise price and/or the withholding taxes of an Award. For purposes of this Section 2, Options and Stock Appreciation Rights will be deemed to be "underwater" at any time when the Fair Market Value of the Company Stock is less than the exercise price of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right.
Subject to Section 162(m) of the Code and except as required by Rule 16b-3 with respect to grants of Awards to individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or as otherwise required for compliance with Rule 16b-3 or other applicable law, the Committee may delegate all or any part of its authority under the Plan to an employee, employees or committee of employees.
All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee or the Board of Directors shall be final and binding on all persons with any interest in an Award, including the Company and the Participant (or any person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any Participant). No member of the Committee or the Board of Directors shall be liable for any action taken or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other countries in which Participants are located, or in order to comply with the requirements of any foreign stock exchange, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (a) determine which Subsidiaries shall be covered by the Plan; (b) determine which Participants outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (c) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Participants outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign laws or listing requirements of any such foreign stock exchange; (d) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable (any such subplans and/or modifications shall be attached to the Plan as appendices); provided , however , that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the share limitations contained in Section 4; and (e) take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals or listing requirements of any such foreign stock exchange.

Stock Subject to the Plan.
(a)      Shares Available for Awards .
The maximum number of shares of Company Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan (all of which may be granted as Incentive Stock Options) shall be the sum of (in each case, subject to adjustment as provided herein) (i) five million (5,000,000) shares, (ii) the number of shares reserved but unissued under the Company’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan as of the date the Plan is approved by shareholders, and (iii) the number of shares becoming available for reuse following the date the Plan is approved by shareholders under the Company’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(e) hereof. Notwithstanding the forgoing, of the shares reserved for issuance pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, no more than half of such shares shall be issued as Full Value Awards. Shares reserved under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Company Stock or authorized and issued Company Stock held in the Company's treasury. The Committee may direct that any stock certificate evidencing shares issued pursuant to the Plan shall bear a legend setting forth such restrictions on transferability as may apply to such shares pursuant to the Plan.
(b)      Individual Limitation .
To the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code, the total number of shares of Company Stock subject to Awards granted to any one Participant during any tax year of the Company, shall not exceed one million five hundred thousand (1,500,000) shares (based on highest levels of performance resulting in maximum payout), subject to adjustment as provided herein.

In the event that the Committee shall determine that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Company Stock, or other property), or any other alteration to the capital structure of the Company whether by way of recapitalization, Company Stock split, reverse Company Stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or share exchange, or other similar corporate transaction or event, makes an adjustment appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants under the Plan, then the Committee shall make such equitable changes or adjustments as it deems necessary or appropriate to any or all of (1) the number and kind of shares of Company Stock which may thereafter be issued in connection with Awards, (2) the number and kind of shares of


7


Company Stock, securities or other property (including cash) issued or issuable in respect of outstanding Awards, (3) the exercise price, grant price or purchase price relating to any Award, and (4) the maximum number of shares subject to Awards which may be awarded to any employee during any tax year of the Company; provided that, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, any such adjustment shall be made in accordance with Section 424 of the Code; and provided further that, no such adjustment shall cause any Award hereunder which is or could be subject to Section 409A of the Code to fail to comply with the requirements of such section; and provided further that in no event shall the per share exercise price of an Option or subscription price per share of an Award be reduced to an amount that is lower than the par value of a share.
(e)     Reuse of Shares.
Except as set forth below, if any shares subject to an Award are forfeited, cancelled, exchanged or surrendered, or if an Award terminates or expires without a distribution of shares to the Participant, the shares of stock with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, withholding, termination or expiration, again be available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the exercise of any Award granted in tandem with any other Awards, such related Awards shall be cancelled to the extent of the number of shares of Company Stock as to which the Award is exercised and such number of shares shall no longer be available for Awards under the Plan, and upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the number of shares of Company Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the full number of shares of Company Stock with respect to which such award is being exercised. In addition, notwithstanding the forgoing, the shares of stock surrendered or withheld as payment of either the exercise price of an Option (including shares of stock otherwise underlying an Award of a Stock Appreciation Right that are retained by the Company to account for the appreciation base of such Stock Appreciation Right) and/or withholding taxes in respect of an Award shall no longer be available for Awards under the Plan.
5.

Awards Under the Plan.
(a)     Agreement.
The Committee may grant Awards in such amounts and with such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan. Each Award granted under the Plan (except an unconditional Stock Bonus) shall be evidenced by an Agreement as the Committee may in its sole discretion deem necessary or


8


desirable and unless the Committee determines otherwise, such Agreement must be signed, acknowledged and returned by the Participant to the Company. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, any failure by the Participant to sign and return the Agreement within such period of time following the granting of the Award as the Committee shall prescribe shall cause such Award to the Participant to be null and void. By accepting an Award or other benefits under the Plan (including participation in the Plan), each Participant, shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, all provisions of the Plan and the Agreement.
(b)      Stock Options.
(i)     Grant of Stock Options . The Committee may grant Options under the Plan to purchase shares of Company Stock in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall from time to time determine in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan. The exercise price of the share purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Committee, but in no event shall the exercise price be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the grant date of such Option. The date as of which the Committee adopts a resolution granting an Option shall be considered the day on which such Option is granted unless such resolution specifies a later date.
(ii)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the vesting condition for any Option (other than Options excluded from the minimum vesting requirement as set forth in Section 6(j)) relates exclusively to the passage of time and continued employment, such time period shall not be less than 36 months, with no more than thirty-three and one-third percent (33⅓%) of the Award vesting every 12 months from the date of the Award, subject to Sections 7 and 8. If the vesting condition for any Option, relates to the attainment of specified Performance Goals, such Option shall vest over a performance period of not less than one (1) year, subject to Sections 7 and 8.
(iii)      Each Option shall be clearly identified in the applicable Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option and shall state the number of shares of Company Stock to which the Option (and/or each type of Option) relates.
(c)      Special Requirements for Incentive Stock Options.
(i)    To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of Company Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year under the Plan and any other stock option plan of the Company shall exceed $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. Such Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date on which each such Incentive Stock Option is granted.


9


(ii)    No Incentive Stock Option may be granted to an individual if, at the time of the proposed grant, such individual owns (or is deemed to own under the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company unless (A) the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option is at least 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted and (B) such Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.
(d)      Stock Appreciation Rights.
(i)    The Committee may grant a related Stock Appreciation Right in connection with all or any part of an Option granted under the Plan, either at the time such Option is granted or at any time thereafter prior to the exercise, termination or cancellation of such Option, and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall from time to time determine in its sole discretion, consistent with the terms and provisions of the Plan, provided, however, that in no event shall the appreciation base of the shares of Company Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the grant date of such Stock Appreciation Right. The holder of a related Stock Appreciation Right shall, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the applicable Agreement, have the right by exercise thereof to surrender to the Company for cancellation all or a portion of such related Stock Appreciation Right, but only to the extent that the related Option is then exercisable, and to be paid therefor an amount equal to the excess (if any) of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Company Stock subject to the related Stock Appreciation Right or portion thereof surrendered (determined as of the exercise date), over (ii) the aggregate appreciation base of the shares of Company Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right or portion thereof surrendered. Upon any exercise of a related Stock Appreciation Right or any portion thereof, the number of shares of Company Stock subject to the related Option shall be reduced by the number of shares of Company Stock in respect of which such Stock Appreciation Right shall have been exercised.
(ii)    The Committee may grant unrelated Stock Appreciation Rights in such amount and subject to such terms and conditions, as the Committee shall from time to time determine in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, provided, however, that in no event shall the appreciation base of the shares of Company Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the grant date of such Stock Appreciation Right. The holder of an unrelated Stock Appreciation Right shall, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the applicable Agreement, have the right to surrender to the Company for cancellation all or a portion of such Stock Appreciation Right, but only to the extent that such Stock Appreciation Right is then exercisable, and to be paid therefor an amount equal to


10


the excess (if any) of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Company Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right or portion thereof surrendered (determined as of the exercise date), over (ii) the aggregate appreciation base of the shares of Company Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right or portion thereof surrendered.
(iii)    The grant or exercisability of any Stock Appreciation Right shall be subject to such conditions as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.
(iv)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the vesting condition for any Stock Appreciation Right (other than Stock Appreciation Rights excluded from the minimum vesting requirement as set forth in Section 6(j)) relates exclusively to the passage of time and continued employment, such time period shall not be less than 36 months, with no more than thirty-three and one-third percent (33⅓%) of the Award vesting every 12 months from the date of the Award, subject to Sections 7 and 8. If the vesting condition for any Stock Appreciation Right relates to the attainment of specified Performance Goals, such Stock Appreciation Right shall vest over a performance period of not less than one (1) year, subject to Sections 7 and 8.
(e)     Restricted Stock and Stock Bonus.
(i)      The Committee may grant Restricted Stock awards, alone or in tandem with other Awards under the Plan, subject to such restrictions, terms and conditions, as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion and as shall be evidenced by the applicable Agreements. The vesting of a Restricted Stock award granted under the Plan may be conditioned upon the completion of a specified period of service with the Company or any Subsidiary, upon the attainment of specified performance goals, and/or upon such other criteria as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.
(ii)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the vesting condition for any Full Value Award (including an Award of Restricted Stock, but other than any Full Value Awards excluded from the minimum vesting requirement as set forth in Section 6(j)) relates exclusively to the passage of time and continued employment, such time period shall not be less than 36 months, with no more than thirty-three and one-third percent (33⅓%) of the Award vesting every 12 months from the date of the Award, subject to Sections 7 and 8. If the vesting condition for any Full Value Award (including Award of Restricted Stock) relates to the attainment of specified Performance Goals, such Full Value Award shall vest over a performance period of not less than one (1) year, subject to Sections 7 and 8.
(iii)    Each Agreement with respect to a Restricted Stock award shall set forth the amount (if any) to be paid by the Participant with respect to


11


such Award and when and under what circumstances such payment is required to be made.
(iv)    The Committee may, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee determines in its sole discretion, provide that a certificate or certificates representing the shares underlying a Restricted Stock award shall be registered in the Participant's name and bear an appropriate legend specifying that such shares are not transferable and are subject to the provisions of the Plan and the restrictions, terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Agreement, or that such certificate or certificates shall be held in escrow by the Company on behalf of the Participant until such shares become vested or are forfeited. Except as provided in the applicable Agreement, no shares underlying a Restricted Stock award may be assigned, transferred, or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Participant until such shares have vested in accordance with the terms of such Award.
(v)      If and to the extent that the applicable Agreement may so provide, a Participant shall have the right to vote and receive dividends on the shares underlying a Restricted Stock award granted under the Plan. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agreement, any stock received as a dividend on or in connection with a stock split of the shares underlying a Restricted Stock award shall be subject to the same restrictions as the shares underlying such Restricted Stock award.

(f)      Performance Awards.
(i)    The Committee may grant Performance Awards, alone or in tandem with other Awards under the Plan, to acquire shares of Company Stock in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall from time to time in its sole discretion determine, subject to the terms of the Plan. To the extent necessary to satisfy the short-term deferral exception to Section 409A of the Code, unless the Committee shall determine otherwise, the Performance Awards shall provide that payment shall be made within 2½ months after the end of the year in which the Participant has a legally binding vested right to such award.
(ii)    In the event that the Committee grants a Performance Award or other Award (other than Nonqualified Stock Option or Incentive Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right) that is intended to constitute qualified performance-based compensation within the meaning Section 162(m) of the Code, the following rules shall apply (as such rules may be modified by the

(iii)    Except as provided in Section 7 hereof, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised and no ordinary shares underlying any other Award under the Plan may vest or become deliverable unless the Participant is at such time in the employ (for Participants who are employees) or service (for Participants who are Nonemployee Directors or consultants) of the Company or a Subsidiary (or a company, or a parent or subsidiary company of such company, issuing or assuming the relevant right or award in a Change in Control) and has remained continuously so employed or in service since the relevant date of grant of the Award.
(iv)    An Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable by the filing of a written notice of exercise or a notice of exercise in such other manner with the Company, on such form and in such manner as the Committee shall in its sole discretion prescribe, and by payment in accordance with Section 6(i) hereof.

(j)     Minimum Vesting Requirement . Subject to Sections 7 and 8, no Award or portion thereof shall provide for vesting prior to the first anniversary of its date of grant; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards that result in the issuance of an aggregate of up to 5% of the shares of Company Stock available pursuant to Section 4(a) may be granted under the Plan without regard to such minimum vesting provision.
7.
Termination of Service.
(a)      Unless the applicable Agreement provides otherwise or the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise, upon termination of a Participant's service to (or in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant’s employment with) the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Company or its Subsidiary for Cause (or in the case of a Nonemployee Director upon such Nonemployee Director's failure to be renominated as Nonemployee Director of the Company), the portions of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted to such Participant that are exercisable as of the date of such termination of service shall remain exercisable, and any payment or notice provided for under the terms of any other outstanding Award as respects the portion thereof that is vested as of the date of such termination of service, may be given, for a period of thirty (30) days from and including the date of termination service (and shall thereafter terminate). All portions of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights granted to such Participant which are not exercisable as of the date of such termination of service, and any other outstanding Award which is not vested as of the date of such termination of service shall terminate upon the date of such termination of service.
(b)      Unless the applicable Agreement provides otherwise or the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise, upon termination of the Participant's service to (or in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant’s employment with) the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason other than as described in subsection (a), (c), (d) or (e) hereof, the portions of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted to such Participant that are exercisable as of the date of such termination of service shall remain exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days (and shall terminate thereafter), and any payment or notice provided for under the terms of any other outstanding Award as respects the portion thereof vested as of the date of termination of service may be given, for a period of ninety (90) days from and including the date of termination of service (and shall terminate thereafter). All additional portions of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights granted to such Participant which are not exercisable as of the date of such termination of service, and any other outstanding Award which


16


is not vested as of the date of such termination of service shall terminate upon the date of such termination of service.
(c)      Unless the applicable Agreement provides otherwise or the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise, if the Participant voluntarily Retires with the consent of the Company or the Participant's service (or in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant’s employment) terminates due to Disability, all outstanding Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and all other outstanding Awards (except, in the event a Participant voluntarily Retires, with respect to Awards (other than Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) intended to qualify as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code) granted to such Participant shall continue to vest in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agreements. The Participant shall be entitled to exercise each such Option or Stock Appreciation Right and to make any payment, give any notice or to satisfy other condition under each such other Award, in each case, for a period of one (1) year from and including the later of (i) date such entire Award becomes vested or exercisable in accordance with the terms of such Award and (ii) the date of Retirement, and thereafter such Awards or parts thereof shall be canceled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its sole discretion provide for a longer or shorter period for exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or may permit a Participant to continue vesting under an Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Restricted Stock award or to make any payment, give any notice or to satisfy other condition under any other Award. The Committee may in its sole discretion, and in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, determine (i) for purposes of the Plan, whether any termination of service is a voluntary Retirement with the Company's consent or is due to Disability for purposes of the Plan, (ii) whether any leave of absence (including any short-term or long-term Disability or medical leave) constitutes a termination of service, or a failure to have remained continuously in service, for purposes of the Plan (regardless of whether such leave or status would constitute such a termination or failure for purposes of employment law), (iii) the applicable date of any such termination of service, and (iv) the impact, if any, of any of the foregoing on Awards under the Plan.
(d)      Unless the applicable Agreement provides otherwise or the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise, if the Participant's service (or in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant’s employment) terminates by reason of death, or if the Participant's service terminates under circumstances providing for continued rights under subsection (b), (c) or (e) of this Section 7 and during the period of continued rights described in subsection (b), (c) or (e) the Participant dies, all outstanding Options, Restricted Stock and Stock Appreciation Rights granted to such Participant shall vest and become fully exercisable, and any payment or notice provided for under the terms of any other outstanding Award may be immediately paid or given and any condition may be satisfied, by the person to whom such rights have passed under the Participant's will (or if applicable, pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution) for a period of one (1) year from and including the date of the Participant's death and thereafter all such Awards or parts thereof shall be canceled.
(e)      Unless the applicable Agreement provides otherwise or the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise, upon termination of a Participant's service to (or in the


17


case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant’s employment with) the Company and its Subsidiaries (i) by the Company or its Subsidiaries without Cause (including, in case of a Nonemployee Director, the failure to be elected as a Nonemployee Director) or (ii) by the Participant for “good reason” or any like term as defined under any employment agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary to which a Participant may be a party to, the portions of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted to such Participant which are exercisable as of the date of termination of service of such Participant shall remain exercisable, and any payment or notice provided for under the terms of any other outstanding Award as respects the portion thereof vested as of the date of termination of service may be given, for a period of one (1) year from and including the date of termination of service and shall terminate thereafter. Unless the applicable Agreement provides otherwise or the Committee in its sole discretion determines otherwise, any other outstanding Award shall terminate as of the date of such termination of service.
(f)      Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7 to the contrary, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised and no shares of Company Stock underlying any other Award under the Plan may vest or become deliverable past the Stated Expiration Date.
8.
Effect of Change in Control.
Unless otherwise determined in an Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control:
(a) With respect to each outstanding Award that is assumed or substituted in connection with a Change in Control, in the event of a termination of a Participant’s service to the Company without Cause during the 24-month period following such Change in Control, on the date of such termination (i) such Award shall become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable, (ii) the restrictions, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions applicable to any such Award granted shall lapse, and (iii) any performance conditions imposed with respect to Awards shall be deemed to be fully achieved at target levels.
(b)      With respect to each outstanding Award that is not assumed or substituted in connection with a Change in Control, immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, (i) such Award shall become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable, (ii) the restrictions, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions applicable to any such Award granted shall lapse, and (iii) any performance conditions imposed with respect to Awards shall be deemed to be fully achieved at target levels.
(c)      For purposes of this Section 8, an Award shall be considered assumed or substituted for if, following the Change in Control, the Award remains subject to the same terms and conditions that were applicable to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control except that, if the Award related to Shares, the Award instead confers the right to receive common stock of the acquiring entity.
(d)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, (i) in the event of a Change in Control, except as would otherwise result in adverse tax consequences under Section


18


409A of the Code, the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide that each Award shall, immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, be cancelled in exchange for a payment in cash or securities in an amount equal to (x) the excess of the consideration paid per Share in the Change in Control over the exercise or purchase price (if any) per Share subject to the Award multiplied by (y) the number of Shares granted under the Award and (ii) with respect to any Award that constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, in the event of a Change in Control that does not constitute a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code and regulations thereunder, such Award shall be settled in accordance with its original terms or at such earlier time as permitted by Section 409A of the Code.
9.
Miscellaneous.
(a)      Agreements evidencing Awards under the Plan shall contain such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, including penalties for the commission of competitive acts or other actions detrimental to the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Committee shall have the right at any time to deny or delay a Participant's exercise of Options if such Participant is reasonably believed by the Committee (i) to be engaged in material conduct adversely affecting the Company or (ii) to be contemplating such conduct, unless and until the Committee shall have received reasonable assurance that the Participant is not engaged in, and is not contemplating, such material conduct adverse to the interests of the Company.
(b)      Participants are and at all times shall remain subject to the trading window policies adopted by the Company from time to time throughout the period of time during which they may exercise Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or sell shares of Company Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan.
(c)      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, (a) the Company shall not be obliged to issue any shares pursuant to an Award unless at least the par value of such newly issued share has been fully paid in advance in accordance with applicable law (which requirement may mean the holder of an Award is obliged to make such payment) and (b) the Company shall not be obliged to issue or deliver any shares in satisfaction of Awards until all legal and regulatory requirements associated with such issue or delivery have been complied with to the satisfaction of the Committee.
(d)      Awards shall be subject to any compensation recovery policy adopted by the Company from time to time, including, without limitation, policies adopted to comply with applicable law.
10.
No Special Employment Rights; No Right to Award.
(a)      Nothing contained in the Plan or any Agreement shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to the continuation of employment or service by the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, subject to the terms of any separate


19


employment agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment or service or to increase or decrease the compensation of the Participant.
(b)      No person shall have any claim or right to receive an Award hereunder. The Committee's granting of an Award to a Participant at any time shall neither require the Committee to grant any other Award to such Participant or other person at any time or preclude the Committee from making subsequent grants to such Participant or any other person.
11.
Securities Matters.
(a)      The Company shall be under no obligation to effect the registration pursuant to the Securities Act of any interests in the Plan or any shares of Company Stock to be issued hereunder or to effect similar compliance under any state laws. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to cause to be issued or delivered any certificates evidencing shares of Company Stock pursuant to the Plan unless and until the Company is advised by its counsel that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authority and the requirements of any securities exchange on which shares of Company Stock are traded. The Committee may require, as a condition of the issuance and delivery of certificates evidencing shares of Company Stock pursuant to the terms hereof, that the recipient of such shares make such agreements and representations, and that such certificates bear such legends, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable.
(b)      The transfer of any shares of Company Stock hereunder shall be effective only at such time as counsel to the Company shall have determined that the issuance and delivery of such shares is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authority and the requirements of any securities exchange on which shares of Company Stock are traded. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, defer the effectiveness of any transfer of shares of Company Stock hereunder in order to allow the issuance of such shares to be made pursuant to registration or an exemption from registration or other methods for compliance available under federal or state securities laws. The Committee shall inform the Participant in writing of its decision to defer the effectiveness of a transfer. During the period of such deferral in connection with the exercise of an Award, the Participant may, by written notice, withdraw such exercise and obtain the refund of any amount paid with respect thereto.
12.
Withholding Taxes.
(a)      Whenever cash is to be paid pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto.
(b)      Whenever shares of Company Stock are to be delivered pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. With the approval of the Committee and subject to applicable law, a Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery


20


shares of Company Stock having a value equal to the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld or such other amount that will not cause adverse accounting consequences for the Company and is permitted under applicable withholding rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service or another applicable governmental entity. Such shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined. Fractional share amounts shall be settled in cash. Such a withholding election may be made with respect to all or any portion of the shares to be delivered pursuant to an Award.
13.
Non-Competition and Confidentiality.
By accepting Awards and as a condition to the exercise of Awards and the enjoyment of any benefits of the Plan, including participation therein, each Participant agrees to be bound by and subject to non-competition, confidentiality and invention ownership agreements acceptable to the Committee or any officer or director to whom the Committee elects to delegate such authority.
14.
Notification of Election Under Section 83(b) of the Code.
If any Participant shall, in connection with the acquisition of shares of Company Stock under the Plan, make the election permitted under Section 83(b) of the Code, such Participant shall notify the Company of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service.
15.
Amendment or Termination of the Plan.
The Board of Directors or the Committee may, at any time, suspend or terminate the Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever; provided, however, that the requisite shareholder approval shall be required if and to the extent the Board of Directors or Committee determines that such approval is appropriate or necessary for purposes of satisfying Sections 162(m) or 422 of the Code or Rule 16b-3 or other applicable law. Awards may be granted under the Plan prior to the receipt of such shareholder approval of the Plan but each such grant shall be subject in its entirety to such approval and no Award may be exercised, vested or otherwise satisfied prior to the receipt of such approval. No amendment or termination of the Plan may, without the consent of a Participant, adversely affect the Participant's rights under any outstanding Award.
16.
Transfers Upon Death; Nonassignability.
(a)      A Participant may file with the Committee a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, upon the death of a Participant, outstanding Awards granted to such Participant may be exercised only by the executor or administrator of the Participant's estate or by a person who shall have acquired the right to such exercise by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. No transfer of an Award by will or the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee shall have been furnished with written notice thereof and with a copy of the will and/or such evidence as the Committee may deem necessary to establish the validity of


21


the transfer and an agreement by the transferee to comply with all the terms and conditions of the Award that are or would have been applicable to the Participant and to be bound by the acknowledgments made by the Participant in connection with the grant of the Award.
(b)      During a Participant's lifetime, the Committee may, in its discretion, pursuant to the provisions set forth in this clause (b), permit the transfer, assignment or other encumbrance of an outstanding Option unless such Option is an Incentive Stock Option and the Committee and the Participant intends that it shall retain such status. Subject to the approval of the Committee and to any conditions that the Committee may prescribe, a Participant may, upon providing written notice to the General Counsel of the Company, elect to transfer any or all Options granted to such Participant pursuant to the Plan to members of his or her immediate family, including, but not limited to, children, grandchildren and spouse or to trusts for the benefit of such immediate family members or to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners; provided, however, that no such transfer by any Participant may be made in exchange for consideration. Any such transferee must agree, in writing, to be bound by all provisions of the Plan.
17.
Effective Date and Term of Plan.
The Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date, but the Plan shall be subject to the requisite approval of the shareholders of the Company. In the absence of such approval, such Awards shall be null and void. Unless earlier terminated by the Board of Directors, the right to grant Awards under the Plan shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Awards outstanding at Plan termination shall remain in effect according to their terms and the provisions of the Plan.
18.
Applicable Law.
Except to the extent preempted by any applicable federal law, the Plan shall be construed and administered in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to its principles of conflicts of law.
19.
Participant Rights.
(a)      No Participant shall have any claim to be granted any award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment for Participants. Except as provided specifically herein, a Participant or a transferee of an Award shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares covered by any award until the date of the issuance of a Company Stock certificate to him or her for such shares.
(b)      Determinations by the Committee under the Plan relating to the form, amount and terms and conditions of grants and Awards need not be uniform, and may be made selectively among persons who receive or are eligible to receive grants and awards under the Plan, whether or not such persons are similarly situated.
20.
Unfunded Status of Awards.


22


The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Agreement shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.
21.
No Fractional Shares.
No fractional shares of Company Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.
22.
Interpretation.
The Plan is designed and intended to the extent applicable, to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code, and to provide for grants and other transactions which are exempt under Rule 16b-3, and all provisions hereof shall be construed in a manner to so comply. Awards under the Plan are intended to comply with Code Section 409A to the extent subject thereto and the Plan and all Awards shall be interpreted in accordance with Code Section 409A and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the effective date of the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, no payment or distribution under this Plan that constitutes an item of deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and becomes payable by reason of a Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Company will be made to such Participant until such Participant’s termination of employment or service constitutes a “separation from service” (as defined in Code Section 409A). For purposes of this Plan, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Code Section 409A. If a participant is a “specified employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A), then to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes under Code Section 409A, such Participant shall not be entitled to any payments upon a termination of his or her employment or service until the earlier of: (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such Participant’s “separation from service” or (ii) the date of such Participant’s death. Upon the expiration of the applicable waiting period set forth in the preceding sentence, all payments and benefits deferred pursuant to this Section 22 (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single lump sum or in installments in the absence of such deferral) shall be paid to such Participant in a lump sum as soon as practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days, following such expired period, and any remaining payments due under this Plan will be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

Notwithstanding the above, in the event such continued coverage, by reason of change in the applicable law, may, in the Company’s reasonable view, result in tax or other penalties on the Company, this provision shall terminate and the parties shall, in good faith, negotiate for a substitute provision that provides substantially similar benefit to Executive but does not result in such tax or other penalties.

Certain Tax Treatment .

11


(a)
Golden Parachute Tax . To the extent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement and benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, Executive under any other plan or agreement of the Company or any of its affiliates (such payments or benefits are collectively referred to as the “ Payments ”) would be subject to the excise tax (the “ Excise Tax ”) imposed under Section 4999 of the Code or any successor provision thereto, or any similar tax imposed by state or local law, then Executive may, in his sole discretion, (except as provided herein below) waive the right to receive any payments or distributions (or a portion thereof) by the Company in the nature of compensation to or for Executive’s benefit if and to the extent necessary so that no Payment to be made or benefit to be provided to Executive shall be subject to the Excise Tax (such reduced amount is hereinafter referred to as the “ Limited Payment Amount ”), but only if such reduction results in a higher after-tax payment to Executive after taking into account the Excise Tax and any additional taxes (including federal, state and local income taxes, employment, social security and Medicare taxes and all other applicable taxes) Executive would pay if such Payments and benefits were not reduced. If so waived, the Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments provided under Section 8, to effect the provisions of this Section 9 based upon Section 9(b) below. The determination of the amount of Payments that would be required to be reduced to the Limited Payment Amount pursuant to this Agreement and the amount of such Limited Payment Amount shall be made, at the Company’s expense, by a reputable accounting firm selected by Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “ Accounting Firm ”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determination (the “ Determination ”), together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation to the Company and Executive within ten (10) days of the date of termination, if applicable, or such other time as specified by mutual agreement of the Company and Executive, and if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive with respect to the Payments, it shall furnish Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to any such Payments. The Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon the Company and Executive, absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 9(a), the Accounting Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and rates, and rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the Code, and other applicable legal authority. In furtherance of the above, to the extent requested by Executive, the Company shall cooperate in good faith in valuing, and the Accounting Firm shall value, services to be provided by Executive (including Executive refraining from performing services pursuant to

12


any covenant not to compete) before, on or after the date of the transaction which causes the application of Section 4999 of the Code, such that payments in respect of such services may be considered to be “reasonable compensation” within the meaning of the regulations under Section 4999 of the Code.
(b)
Ordering of Reduction . In the case of a reduction in the Payments pursuant to Section 9(a), the Payments will be reduced in the following order: (i) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) will be reduced (if necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; (iii) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last reduced first, will next be reduced; (iv) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; and (v) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses (ii) or (iv) will be next reduced pro-rata.
(c)
Section 409A . The parties intend for the payments and benefits under this Agreement to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code or, if not so exempt, to be paid or provided in a manner which complies with the requirements of such section, and intend that this Agreement shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intention. In the event the Company determines that a payment or benefit under this Agreement may not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, subject to Section 5(c) herein, the Company shall reasonably confer with Executive in order to modify or amend this Agreement to comply with Section 409A of the Code and to do so in a manner to best preserve the economic benefit of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, (i) no amounts shall be paid to Executive under Section 8 of this Agreement until Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following Executive’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6)

13


months following Executive’s separation from service (or death, if earlier), with interest for any cash payments so delayed, from the date such cash amounts would otherwise have been paid at the short-term applicable federal rate, compounded semi-annually, as determined under Section 1274 of the Code for the month in which the payment would have been made but for the delay in payment required to avoid the imposition of an additional rate of tax on Executive, (iii) each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separately identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, (iv) any payments that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise and (v) amounts reimbursable to Executive under this Agreement shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in-kind benefits provided to Executive) during any one (1) year may not effect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year.
