7. The Governmental Entity has the right to enforce the Distributor Settlement as provided therein.
8. The Governmental Entity, as a Participating Subdivision, hereby becomes a Releasor for all purposes in the Distributor Settlement, including, but not limited to, all provisions of Part XI, and along with all departments, agencies, divisions, boards, commissions, districts, instrumentalities of any kind and attorneys, and any person in their official capacity elected or appointed to serve any of the foregoing and any agency, person, or other entity claiming by or through any of the foregoing, and any other entity identified in the definition of Releasor, provides for a release to the fullest extent of its authority. As a Releasor, the Governmental Entity hereby absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably covenants not to bring, file, or claim, or to cause, assist or permit to be brought, filed, or claimed, or to otherwise seek to establish liability for any Released Claims against any Released Entity in any forum whatsoever. The releases provided for in the Distributor Settlement are intended by the Parties to be broad and shall be interpreted so as to give the Released Entities the broadest possible bar against any liability relating in any way to Released Claims and extend to the full extent of the power of the Governmental Entity to release claims. The Distributor Settlement shall be a complete bar to any Released Claim.
9. The Governmental Entity hereby takes on all rights and obligations of a Participating Subdivision as set forth in the Distributor Settlement.
10. In connection with the releases provided for in the Distributor Settlement, each Governmental Entity expressly waives, releases, and forever discharges any and all provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United States or other jurisdiction, or principle of common law, which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to § 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads:
General Release; extent. A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, and that if known by him or her would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
A Releasor may hereafter discover facts other than or different from those which it knows, believes, or assumes to be true with respect to the Released Claims, but each Governmental Entity hereby expressly waives and fully, finally, and forever settles, releases and discharges, upon the Effective Date, any and all Released Claims that may exist as of such date but which Releasors do not know or suspect to exist, whether through ignorance, oversight, error, negligence or through no fault whatsoever, and which, if known, would materially affect the Governmental Entities’ decision to participate in the Distributor Settlement.

A State-Subdivision Agreement shall be applied if it meets the requirements of Section V and is approved by the State and by the State’s Subdivisions as follows:
1. Requirements for Approval. A State-Subdivision Agreement shall be agreed when it has been approved by the State and either (a) Subdivisions whose aggregate “Population Percentages,” determined as set forth below, total more than sixty percent (60%), or (b) Subdivisions whose aggregate Population Percentages total more than fifty percent (50%) provided that these Subdivisions also represent fifteen percent (15%) or more of the State’s counties or parishes (or, in the case of Settling States whose counties and parishes that do not function as local governments, fifteen percent (15%) of or more of the Settling State’s General Purpose Governments that qualify as Subdivisions), by number.
2. Approval Authority. Approval by the State shall be by the Attorney General. Approval by a Subdivision shall be by the appropriate official or legislative body pursuant to the required procedures for that Subdivision to agree to a legally binding settlement.
3. Population Percentage Calculation. For purposes of this Exhibit O only, Population Percentages shall be determined as follows: For States with functional counties or parishes17, the Population Percentage of each county or parish shall be deemed to be equal to (a) (1) two hundred percent (200%) of the population of such county or parish, minus (2) the aggregate population of all Primary Incorporated Municipalities located in such county or parish, divided by (b) two hundred percent (200%) of the State’s population. A “Primary Incorporated Municipality” means a city, town, village or other municipality incorporated under applicable state law with a population of at least 25,000 that is not located within another incorporated municipality. The Population Percentage of each Primary Incorporated Municipality shall be equal to its population (including the population of any incorporated or unincorporated municipality located therein) divided by two hundred percent (200%) of the State’s population; provided that the Population Percentage of a Primary Incorporated Municipality that is not located within a county shall be equal to two hundred percent (200%) of its population (including the population of any incorporated or unincorporated municipality located therein) divided by two hundred percent (200%) of the State’s population. For all States that do not have functional counties or parishes, the Population Percentage of each General Purpose Government (including any incorporated or unincorporated municipality located therein), shall be equal to its population divided by the State’s population.
4. Preexisting Agreements and Statutory Provisions. A State may include with the notice to its Subdivisions an existing agreement, a proposed agreement, or statutory provisions regarding the distribution and use of settlement funds and have the acceptance of such an agreement or statutory provision be part of the requirements to be an Initial Participating Subdivision. 17 Certain states do not have counties or parishes that have functional governments, including: Alaska, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

Section VIII unless and until the Monitor proposes a revised metric in connection with Section XVIII.H.
D. For purposes of the Injunctive Relief Terms, “ Red Flags” are defined as follows:
1. Ordering ratio of Highly Diverted Controlled Substances to non- Controlled Substances: Analyze the ratio of the order volume of all Highly Diverted Controlled Substances to the order volume of all non- Controlled Substances to identify Customers with significant rates of ordering Highly Diverted Controlled Substances.
2. Ordering ratio of Highly Diverted Controlled Substance base codes or drug families to non-Controlled Substances: Analyze the ratio of the order volume of each Highly Diverted Controlled Substance base code or drug family to the total order volume of all non-Controlled Substances to identify Customers with significant rates of ordering each Highly Diverted Controlled Substance base code or drug family.
3. Excessive ordering growth of Controlled Substances: Analyze significant increases in the ordering volume of Controlled Substances using criteria to identify customers that exhibit percentage growth of Controlled Substances substantially in excess of the percentage growth of non-Controlled Substances.
4. Unusual formulation ordering: Analyze ordering of Highly Diverted Controlled Substances to identify customers with significant ordering of high-risk formulations. High-risk formulations include, but are not limited to, 10mg hydrocodone, 8mg hydromorphone, 2mg alprazolam, single- ingredient buprenorphine (i.e.
, buprenorphine without naloxone), and
highly-abused formulations of oxycodone. On an annual basis (or as otherwise necessary), high-risk formulations of Highly Diverted Controlled Substances may be added, removed, or revised based on the Injunctive Relief Distributors’ assessment and regulatory guidance.
5. Out-of-area patients: Analyze Pharmacy Customer Data or Dispensing Data to assess volume of prescriptions for Highly Diverted Controlled Substances for out-of-area patients (based on number of miles traveled between a patient’s zip code and the pharmacy location, depending on the geographic area of interest) taking into consideration the percentage of out-of-area patients for non-Controlled Substances.
6. Cash prescriptions: Analyze Pharmacy Customer Data or Dispensing Data to assess percentage of cash payments for purchases of Controlled Substances taking into consideration the percentage of cash payments for purchases of non-Controlled Substances.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-11
7. Prescriber activity of Customers: Analyze Pharmacy Customer Data or Dispensing Data to identify Customers that are dispensing Highly Diverted Controlled Substance prescriptions for Top Prescribers as follows:
a) Top Prescribers representing a significant volume of dispensing where the prescriber’s practice location is in excess of 50 miles from the pharmacy (“out-of-area”), relative to the percentage of out-of-area prescriptions for non-Controlled Substances. b) Top Prescribers representing prescriptions for the same Highly Diverted Controlled Substances in the same quantities and dosage forms indicative of pattern prescribing (e.g., a prescriber providing many patients with the same high-dose, high-quantity supply of 30mg oxycodone HCL prescription without attention to the varying medical needs of the prescriber’s patient population). c) Top Prescribers where the top five (5) or fewer prescribers represent more than fifty percent (50%) of total prescriptions for Highly Diverted Controlled Substances during a specified period.
8. Public regulatory actions against Customers: Review information retrieved from companies that provide licensing and disciplinary history records (e.g., LexisNexis), and/or other public sources, including governmental entities, showing that the Customer, pharmacists working for that Customer, or the Customer’s Top Prescribers have been subject, in the last five (5) years, to professional disciplinary sanctions regarding the dispensing or handling of Controlled Substances or law enforcement action related to Controlled Substances diversion. Continued licensing by a relevant state agency may be considered, but shall not be dispositive, in resolving the Red Flag. For Chain Customer locations, representations from each Chain Customer that it reviews its pharmacists’ licensing statuses annually and for the regulatory actions described in this paragraph has either (i) taken appropriate employment action, or (ii) disclosed the regulatory action to the Injunctive Relief Distributor, may be considered in resolving the Red Flag.
9. Customer termination data: Review information from the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s due diligence files and, when operable, from the Clearinghouse, subject to Section VIII.F, regarding Customers that have been terminated from ordering Controlled Substances by another distributor due to concerns regarding Controlled Substances.
E. For any Red Flag evaluation in Section VIII.D that may be performed using Pharmacy Customer Data or Dispensing Data, an Injunctive Relief Distributor will analyze the Red Flag using Pharmacy Customer Data, to the extent feasible based on the functionality of a Customer’s pharmacy management system, until DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-12
Dispensing Data is collected and analyzed by the Clearinghouse as described in Section XVII. Until Dispensing Data is collected and analyzed by the Clearinghouse, an Injunctive Relief Distributor may satisfy the Red Flag evaluations in Sections VIII.D.5 through VIII.D.7 by engaging in considerations of out-of-area patients, cash payments for prescriptions and Top Prescribers without satisfying the specific requirements of Sections VIII.D.5 through VIII.D.7. In the event that the Clearinghouse is not collecting and analyzing Dispensing Data within two years of the Effective Date, the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee shall meet and confer to consider alternatives for the performance of the analysis required by Sections VIII.D.5 through VIII.D.7 using Pharmacy Customer Data.
F. As provided for in Section XVII.C.4, the foregoing Red Flag evaluations may be performed by the Clearinghouse and reported to the relevant Injunctive Relief Distributors.
G. The Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee shall work in good faith to identify additional potential Red Flags that can be derived from the data analytics to be performed by the Clearinghouse.
IX. ONBOARDING
A. For each Injunctive Relief Distributor, prior to initiating the sale of Controlled Substances to a potential Customer, a member of the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP department (or a qualified third-party compliance consultant trained on the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP) shall perform the following due diligence:
1. Interview the pharmacist-in-charge, either over the telephone, via videoconference, or in person. The interview shall include questions regarding the manner in which the potential Customer maintains effective controls against the potential diversion of Controlled Substances.
2. Obtain a “Pharmacy Questionnaire” completed by the owner and/or pharmacist-in-charge of the potential Customer. The Pharmacy Questionnaire shall require going-concern potential Customers to list their top ten (10) prescribers for Highly Diverted Controlled Substances combined, along with the prescriber’s specialty, unless the Injunctive Relief Distributor is able to obtain this data otherwise. The Pharmacy Questionnaire shall also require disclosure of the identity of all other distributors that serve the potential Customer, and whether the potential Customer has been terminated or suspended from ordering Controlled Substances by another distributor and the reason for any termination or suspension. The Pharmacy Questionnaire shall request information that would allow the Injunctive Relief Distributor to identify Red Flags, including questions regarding the manner in which the potential Customer maintains effective controls against the potential diversion of Controlled DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-13
Substances. A potential Customer’s responses to the Pharmacy Questionnaire shall be verified, to the extent applicable and practicable, against external sources (for example, the Clearinghouse, once operational, and Automation of Reports and Consolidated Orders System (“ARCOS”) data made available to the Injunctive Relief Distributor by the DEA). The Pharmacy Questionnaire shall be maintained by the Injunctive Relief Distributor in a database accessible to its CSMP personnel.
3. Complete a written onboarding report to be maintained in a database accessible to the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP personnel reflecting the findings of the interview and any site visit, the findings regarding the identification of and, if applicable, conclusion concerning any Red Flag associated with the pharmacy, as well as an analysis of the Pharmacy Questionnaire referenced in the preceding paragraph.
4. For going-concern potential Customers, review Pharmacy Customer Data to assist with the identification of any Red Flags.
5. Document whether the potential Customer or the pharmacist-in-charge has been subject to any professional disciplinary sanctions or law enforcement activity related to Controlled Substances dispensing, and, if so, the basis for that action. For Chain Customers, this provision shall apply to the potential specific pharmacies in question.
B. For Chain Customers, each Injunctive Relief Distributor may obtain the information in Section IX.A from a corporate representative of the Chain Customer.
C. In the event that an Injunctive Relief Distributor identifies one or more unresolved Red Flags or other information indicative of potential diversion of Controlled Substances through the onboarding process or otherwise, the Injunctive Relief Distributor shall refrain from selling Controlled Substances to the potential Customer pending additional due diligence. If following additional due diligence, the Injunctive Relief Distributor is unable to resolve the Red Flags or other information indicative of diversion, the Injunctive Relief Distributor shall not initiate the sale of Controlled Substances to the potential Customer and shall report the potential Customer consistent with Section XIV. If the Injunctive Relief Distributor determines that the potential Customer may be onboarded for the sale of Controlled Substances, the Injunctive Relief Distributor shall document the decision and the bases for its decision. Such a good faith determination, if documented, shall not serve, without more, as the basis of a future claim of non- compliance with the Injunctive Relief Terms. For Chain Customers, these provisions shall apply to the potential specific pharmacies in question.

B. Each Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP department shall be responsible for the oversight of the process for establishing and modifying Thresholds. The sales departments of the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall not have the authority to establish or adjust Thresholds for any Customer or participate in any decisions regarding establishment or adjustment of Thresholds.
C. Injunctive Relief Distributors shall not provide Customers specific information about their Thresholds or how their Thresholds are calculated.
1. Threshold Setting
a) Injunctive Relief Distributors shall primarily use model-based thresholds. For certain circumstances, Injunctive Relief Distributors may apply a non-model threshold based on
documented customer diligence and analysis.
b) Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall include in its Annual Threshold Analysis and Assessment Report (as required by Section XVIII.F.3.c) to the Monitor summary statistics regarding the use of non-model thresholds and such information shall be considered by the Monitor as part of its Threshold Setting Process Review in the annual Audit Report.
c) For the purposes of establishing and maintaining Thresholds, each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall take into account the Controlled Substances diversion risk of each drug base code. The diversion risk of each base code should be defined and reassessed annually by the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP Committee and reviewed by the Monitor.
d) Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall establish Thresholds for new Customers prior to supplying those Customers with
Controlled Substances and shall continue to have Thresholds in DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

(3) For the purposes of establishing and maintaining
Thresholds, Injunctive Relief Distributors shall take into account a Customer’s ordering and/or dispensing history for a specified period of time.
(4) For the purposes of establishing and maintaining
Thresholds, Injunctive Relief Distributors shall take into account the ordering history of Customers within similar geographic regions, or, where appropriate for Chain
Customers, ordering history within the chain.
(5) If appropriate, Thresholds may take into account the characteristics of Customers with similar business models. (a) A Customer’s statement that it employs a particular business model must be verified, to the extent
practicable, before that business model is taken into
account in establishing and maintaining a
Customer’s Threshold.

a) An Injunctive Relief Distributor may increase or decrease a Customer Threshold as set forth in its CSMP policies and procedures, subject to Sections XII.C.3.b through XII.C.3.e. b) Prior to approving any Threshold change request by a Customer, each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall conduct due diligence to determine whether an increase to the Threshold is warranted. This due diligence shall include obtaining from the Customer the basis for the Threshold change request, obtaining and reviewing Dispensing Data and/or Pharmacy Customer Data for the previous three (3) months for due diligence purposes, and, as needed, conducting an on-site visit to the Customer. This Threshold change request diligence shall be conducted by the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP personnel.
c) No Injunctive Relief Distributor shall proactively contact a Customer to suggest that the Customer request an increase to any of its Thresholds, to inform the Customer that its Orders-to-date are approaching its Thresholds or to recommend to the Customer the amount of a requested Threshold increase. It shall not be a violation of this paragraph to provide Chain Customer
headquarters reporting on one or more individual Chain Customer pharmacy location(s) to support the anti-diversion efforts of the Chain Customer’s headquarters staff, and it shall not be a violation of this paragraph for the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP personnel to contact Customers to seek to understand a Customer’s ordering patterns.
d) An Injunctive Relief Distributor’s Chief Diversion Control Officer may approve criteria for potential adjustments to Customer Thresholds to account for circumstances where the Thresholds produced by the ordinary operation of the statistical models require modification. Such circumstances include adjustments to account for seasonal ordering of certain Controlled Substances that are DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

based on documented diligence and analysis, adjustments made to permit ordering of certain Controlled Substances during a declared national or state emergency (e.g., COVID-19 pandemic), IT errors, and data anomalies causing results that are inconsistent with the design of the statistical models. Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall include in its Annual Threshold Analysis and Assessment Report (as required by Section XVIII.F.3.c) to the Monitor information regarding the use of this paragraph and such information shall be considered by the Monitor as part of its Threshold Setting Process Review in the annual Audit Report. e) Any decision to raise a Customer’s Threshold in response to a request by a Customer to adjust its Threshold must be documented in a writing and state the reason(s) for the change. The decision must be consistent with the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP and documented appropriately.
XIII. SUSPICIOUS ORDER REPORTING AND NON-SHIPMENT
A. Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall report Suspicious Orders to the Settling States (“Suspicious Order Reports” or “SORs”), including those Settling States that do not currently require such SORs, at the election of the Settling State.
B. For the SORs required by the Injunctive Relief Terms, each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall report Orders that exceed a Threshold for Controlled Substances set pursuant to the processes in Section XII that are blocked and not shipped.
C. No Injunctive Relief Distributor shall ship any Order that it (i) reports pursuant to Sections XIII.A or XIII.B, or (ii) would have been required to report pursuant to Sections XIII.A or XIII.B had the Settling State elected to receive SORs.
D. In reporting Suspicious Orders to the Settling States, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall file SORs in a standardized electronic format that is uniform among the Settling States and contains the following information fields:
1. Customer name;
2. Customer address;
3. DEA registration number;
4. State pharmacy license number;
5. Date of order;
6. NDC number;
7. Quantity;
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

P-20
8. Explanation for why the order is suspicious (up to 250 characters): Details that are order-specific regarding why an order was flagged as a Suspicious Order, including specific criteria used by an Injunctive Relief Distributor’s Threshold system (except phrases such as “order is of unusual size” without any additional detail are not acceptable); and
9. Name and contact information for a knowledgeable designee within the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP department to be a point of contact for the SORs.
E. On a quarterly basis, each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall provide a summary report to the Settling States that elect to receive it that provides the following information for the relevant quarter with respect to the top ten (10) Customers by volume for each Highly Diverted Controlled Substance base code that have placed a Suspicious Order for that base code, in that quarter (for Chain Customers, only individual pharmacies in the chain will considered for evaluation as a top ten (10) Customer):
1. The number of SORs submitted for that Customer by base code;
2. The Customer’s order volume by base code for the quarter for all Highly Diverted Controlled Substances;
3. The Customer’s order frequency by base code for the quarter for all Highly Diverted Controlled Substances;
4. For each Highly Diverted Controlled Substance base code, the ratio of the Customer’s order volume for that base code to the volume of all pharmaceutical orders for the quarter; and
5. The ratio of the Customer’s order volume of all Controlled Substances to the volume of all pharmaceutical orders for the quarter.
F. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall only be required to file a single, uniform, electronic form of SOR with any Settling State that receives SORs pursuant to these Injunctive Relief Terms. A Settling State retains the authority pursuant to applicable state law or relevant state agency authority to request additional information about a particular SOR.
G. It is the objective of the Settling States and the Injunctive Relief Distributors for the Injunctive Relief Distributors to provide SORs to Settling States that identify the same Suspicious Orders as reported to the DEA pursuant to the definition and requirements of the federal Controlled Substances Act and its regulations, although the fields of the SORs submitted to the Settling States as required by Section XIII may differ from the content required by the DEA. To the extent federal definitions and requirements materially change during the term of the Injunctive Relief Terms, the Injunctive Relief Distributors may be required to adjust the format and content of the SORs to meet these federal requirements. The DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-21
Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee will engage in good faith discussions regarding such adjustments.
H. It shall not be a violation of the Injunctive Relief Terms if an Injunctive Relief Distributor ships a Suspicious Order or fails to submit or transmit a SOR if:
1. The shipment of the Suspicious Order or failed SOR transmission was due to a computer error (data entry mistakes, coding errors, computer logic issues, software malfunctions, and other computer errors or IT failures); and
2. The Injunctive Relief Distributor reports the error, including a description of measures that will be taken to prevent recurrence of the error, to any affected Settling State, the State Compliance Review Committee, and the Monitor within five (5) business days of its discovery.
XIV. TERMINATED CUSTOMERS
A. Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall report to the Clearinghouse, once operational, within five (5) business days (or as otherwise required by state statute or regulation), Customers it has terminated from eligibility to receive Controlled Substances or refused to onboard for the sale of Controlled Substances due to concerns regarding the Customer’s ability to provide effective controls against the potential diversion of Controlled Substances following the Effective Date.
B. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall report to the relevant Settling State(s), within five (5) business days (or as otherwise required by state statute or regulation) Customers located in such Settling States that it has terminated from eligibility to receive Controlled Substances or refused to onboard for the sale of Controlled Substances due to concerns regarding the Customer’s ability to provide effective controls against the potential diversion of Controlled Substances following the Effective Date. Such reports will be made in a uniform format. The Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee shall use best efforts to agree on such uniform format for inclusion prior to the requirement taking effect.
C. In determining whether a Customer should be terminated from eligibility to receive Controlled Substances, Injunctive Relief Distributors shall apply factors set out in their CSMP policies and procedures, which shall include the following conduct by a Customer:
1. Has generated an excessive number of Suspicious Orders, which cannot otherwise be explained;
2. Has routinely demonstrated unresolved Red Flag activity; DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-22
3. Has continued to fill prescriptions for Highly Diverted Controlled Substances that raise Red Flags following an Injunctive Relief Distributor’s warning or communication about such practices;
4. Has failed to provide Pharmacy Customer Data or Dispensing Data in response to a request from an Injunctive Relief Distributor or otherwise refuses to cooperate with the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s CSMP after providing the Customer with a reasonable amount of time to respond to the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s requests;
5. Has been found to have made material omissions or false statements on a Pharmacy Questionnaire (the requirements for the contents of a Pharmacy Questionnaire are described in Section IX); or
6. Has been the subject of discipline by a State Board of Pharmacy within the past three (3) years or has had its owner(s) or pharmacist-in-charge subject to license probation or termination within the past five (5) years by a State Board of Pharmacy for matters related to Controlled Substances dispensing or a federal or state felony conviction.
D. Once the Clearinghouse has made Customer termination data available to each Injunctive Relief Distributor, each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall consider terminating Customers that have been terminated from eligibility to receive Controlled Substances by another distributor as a result of suspected diversion of Controlled Substances if the Customer is ordering only Controlled Substances from the Injunctive Relief Distributor. If the Injunctive Relief Distributor determines not to terminate Customers to which this paragraph applies, the Injunctive Relief Distributor shall document its decision-making. A good-faith decision to continue shipping Controlled Substances to Customers to which this paragraph applies, shall not serve, without more, as the basis of a future claim of non-compliance with the Injunctive Relief Terms.
E. For Chain Customers, the provisions in Section XIV.A-D shall apply to the specific pharmacies in question.
XV. EMERGENCIES
A. In the circumstances of declared national or state emergencies in which the healthcare community relies on the Injunctive Relief Distributors for critical medicines, medical supplies, products, and services, the Injunctive Relief Distributors may be required to temporarily modify their respective CSMP processes to meet the critical needs of the supply chain. These modifications may conflict with the requirements of the Injunctive Relief Terms.
B. In the case of a declared national or state emergency, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall be required to give notice to the State Compliance Review Committee of any temporary material changes to their CSMP processes which DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-23
may conflict with the requirements of the Injunctive Relief Terms and specify the sections of the Injunctive Relief Terms which will be affected by the temporary change.
C. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall document all temporary changes to their CSMP processes and appropriately document all customer-specific actions taken as a result of the declared national or state emergency.
D. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall provide notice to the State Compliance Review Committee at the conclusion of the declared national or state emergency, or sooner, stating that the temporary CSMP processes put into place have been suspended.
E. Provided the Injunctive Relief Distributors comply with the provisions of Sections XV.A through XV.D, the Injunctive Relief Distributors will not face liability for any deviations from the requirements of the Injunctive Relief Terms taken in good faith to meet the critical needs of the supply chain in response to the declared national or state emergency. Nothing herein shall limit Settling States from pursuing claims against the Injunctive Relief Distributors based on deviations from the requirements of the Injunctive Relief Terms not taken in good faith to meet the critical needs of the supply chain in response to a declared national or state emergency.
XVI. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND RECORDKEEPING
A. The Injunctive Relief Distributors acknowledge and agree that they must comply with applicable state and federal laws governing the distribution of Controlled Substances.
B. Good faith compliance with the Injunctive Relief Terms creates a presumption that the Injunctive Relief Distributors are acting reasonably and in the public interest with respect to Settling States’ existing laws requiring effective controls against diversion of Controlled Substances and with respect to the identification, reporting, and blocking of Suspicious Orders of Controlled Substances.
C. The requirements of the Injunctive Relief Terms are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other requirements of state or federal law applicable to Controlled Substances distribution. Except as provided in Section XVI.D, nothing in the Injunctive Relief Terms shall be construed as relieving Injunctive Relief Distributors of the obligation to comply with such laws, regulations, or rules. No provision of the Injunctive Relief Terms shall be deemed as permission for Injunctive Relief Distributors to engage in any acts or practices prohibited by such laws, regulations, or rules.
D. In the event of a conflict between the requirements of the Injunctive Relief Terms and any other law, regulation, or requirement such that an Injunctive Relief Distributor cannot comply with the law without violating the Injunctive Relief DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-24
Terms or being subject to adverse action, including fines and penalties, the Injunctive Relief Distributor shall document such conflicts and notify the State Compliance Review Committee and any affected Settling State the extent to which it will comply with the Injunctive Relief Terms in order to eliminate the conflict within thirty (30) days of the Injunctive Relief Distributor’s discovery of the conflict. The Injunctive Relief Distributor shall comply with the Injunctive Relief Terms to the fullest extent possible without violating the law.
E. In the event of a change or modification of federal or state law governing the distribution of Controlled Substances that creates an actual or potential conflict with the Injunctive Relief Terms, any Injunctive Relief Distributor, any affected Settling State, or the State Compliance Review Committee may request that the Injunctive Relief Distributors, State Compliance Review Committee, and any affected Settling State meet and confer regarding the law change. During the meet and confer, the Injunctive Relief Distributors, the State Compliance Review Committee, and any affected Settling State will address whether the change or modification in federal or state law requires an amendment to the Injunctive Relief Terms. In the event the Injunctive Relief Distributors, the State Compliance Review Committee, and any affected Settling State cannot agree on a resolution, and the dispute relates to whether the generally applicable Injunctive Relief Terms herein should be changed, an Injunctive Relief Distributor, the State Compliance Review Committee, or any affected Settling State may submit the question to the National Arbitration Panel. If the dispute relates to whether a change in an individual State’s law requires a modification of the Injunctive Relief Terms only with respect to that State, an Injunctive Relief Distributor, the State Compliance Review Committee, or any affected Settling State may seek resolution of the dispute pursuant to Section XIX. Maintenance of competition in the industry and the potential burden of inconsistent obligations by Injunctive Relief Distributors shall be a relevant consideration in such resolution.
F. Recordkeeping: Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall retain records it is required to create pursuant to its obligations hereunder in an electronic or otherwise readily accessible format. The Settling States shall have the right to review records provided to the Monitor pursuant to Section XVIII. Nothing in the Injunctive Relief Terms prohibits a Settling State from issuing a lawful subpoena for records pursuant to an applicable law.
XVII. CLEARINGHOUSE
A. Creation of the Clearinghouse
1. The Clearinghouse functions shall be undertaken by a third-party vendor or vendors.
2. The vendor(s) will be chosen through a process developed and jointly agreed upon by the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-25
3. Consistent with the process developed by the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee, within two (2) months of the Effective Date, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall issue a Request for Proposal to develop the systems and capabilities for a Clearinghouse to perform the services of a data aggregator.
4. Within five (5) months of the Effective Date, the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall select one or more entities to develop the systems for the Clearinghouse and perform data aggregator services. The Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall select a vendor or vendors that employ or retain personnel who have adequate expertise and experience related to the pharmaceutical industry, the distribution of Controlled Substances, and the applicable requirements of the Controlled Substances Act and the DEA’s implementing regulations.
5. Within sixty (60) days of the selection of a vendor(s) to serve as the Clearinghouse, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall negotiate and finalize a contract with the vendor(s). The date that the contract is signed by the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the vendor(s) shall be referred to as the “Clearinghouse Retention Date.”
6. The development of the Clearinghouse shall proceed on a phased approach as discussed in Sections XVII.C and XVII.D.
B. Governance and Staffing of the Clearinghouse
1. Capabilities. The selected vendor or vendors shall staff the Clearinghouse in a manner that ensures the development of robust data collection, analytics and reporting capabilities for the Settling States and Injunctive Relief Distributors. To the extent additional expertise is required for the engagement, the vendor(s) may retain the services of third-party consultants.
2. Independence.
While performing services for the Clearinghouse, all
vendors and consultants, and their staff working on the Clearinghouse, shall be independent (i.e., not perform services of any kind, including as a consultant or an employee on behalf of any Injunctive Relief Distributor outside of the ordinary business operations of the Clearinghouse).
Independence may be achieved by implementing appropriate ethical walls with employees who are currently performing or who have previously performed work for an Injunctive Relief Distributor within two years of the Clearinghouse Retention Date.
3. Liability. The Injunctive Relief Distributors are entitled to rely upon information or data received from the Clearinghouse, whether in oral, written, or other form. No Injunctive Relief Distributor, and no individual serving on the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel, shall have any liability DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-26
(whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to any Party for or in connection with any action taken or not taken by the Clearinghouse.
In addition, no Injunctive Relief Distributor, and no individual serving on the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel, shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to any Party for or in connection with any action taken or not taken by an Injunctive Relief Distributor based on incorrect, inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise erroneous information or data provided by the Clearinghouse, unless the information or data was incorrect, inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise erroneous because the Injunctive Relief Distributor itself provided incorrect, inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise erroneous data or information to the Clearinghouse. For any legal requirements that are assumed by the Clearinghouse during Phase 2-B pursuant to Section XVII.D.3, liability shall be addressed pursuant to Section XVII.D.3.c.
4. Clearinghouse Advisory Panel. The State Compliance Review Committee and Injunctive Relief Distributors shall create a Clearinghouse Advisory Panel no later than sixty (60) days after the Effective Date to oversee the Clearinghouse.
a) The Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall have an equal number of members chosen by the State Compliance Review Committee on the one hand, and the Injunctive Relief Distributors on the other.
The size of the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel will be decided by the State Compliance Review Committee and the Injunctive Relief Distributors, and the State Compliance Review Committee and the Injunctive Relief Distributors may select as members third-party experts, but no more than one half of each side’s representatives may be such third-party experts. At least one member chosen by the State Compliance Review Committee will be based on
consultation with the National Association of State Controlled Substances Authorities.
b) During the first two years of the operation of the Clearinghouse, the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall meet (in-person or remotely) at least once per month. After the first two years of operation, the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall meet at least quarterly. The Monitor may attend Clearinghouse Advisory Panel meetings and may provide recommendations to the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel.
c) The Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall establish a subcommittee to advise on issues related to privacy, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), and data security and a subcommittee to advise on issues related to Dispensing Data. It may establish additional subcommittees.
Subcommittees may include individuals who are not members of DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-27
the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel. The Clearinghouse Advisory Panel may invite one or more prescribers, dispensers, and representatives from state Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs (“PDMP”) to serve on the Dispensing Data subcommittee. Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall have a representative on each subcommittee created by the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel. d) The Clearinghouse Advisory Panel may delegate tasks assigned to it by the Injunctive Relief Terms to the Executive Director.
5. Executive Director. One employee of the vendor, or one representative from the vendor group in the event that there are multiple vendors, shall be an Executive Director who shall manage day-to-day operations and report periodically to the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel.
C. Phase 1 of the Clearinghouse: Data Collection, Initial Analytics and Reporting
1. System Development
a) Within one (1) year of the Clearinghouse Retention Date, the Clearinghouse shall develop systems to receive and analyze data obtained from the Injunctive Relief Distributors pursuant to electronic transmission formats to be agreed upon by the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel.
b) In developing such systems, the Clearinghouse shall ensure that:
(1) The systems provide robust reporting and analytic
capabilities.
(2) Data obtained from Injunctive Relief Distributors shall be automatically pulled from the existing order management data platforms (e.g., SAP).
(3) The systems shall be designed to receive data from sources other than the Injunctive Relief Distributors, including pharmacies, non-Injunctive Relief Distributors, the DEA, State Boards of Pharmacy, and other relevant sources,
pursuant to standardized electronic transmission formats. (4) The systems shall be designed to protect personally identifiable information (“PII”) and protected health
information (“PHI”) from disclosure and shall comply with HIPAA and any federal and state laws relating to the
protection of PII and PHI.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-28
(5) The Clearinghouse will establish a HIPAA-compliant
database that can be accessed by state authorities, the Injunctive Relief Distributors, and any entities that
subsequently participate in the Clearinghouse. The database that will be made available to the Injunctive Relief
Distributors and any non-governmental entities that
subsequently participate in the Clearinghouse will also blind commercially sensitive information.
(6) State authorities shall have access to the HIPAA-compliant database via web-based tools and no additional or
specialized equipment or software shall be required. This access shall allow state authorities to query the HIPAA- compliant database without limitation.
(7) The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall be permitted to use data obtained from the Clearinghouse for anti-diversion purposes, including the uses expressly contemplated by the Injunctive Relief Terms. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall not sell (or obtain license fees for) data obtained from Clearinghouse to any third-parties. Nothing in the
Injunctive Relief Terms shall prohibit an Injunctive Relief Distributor from using its own data, including data
provided to the Injunctive Relief Distributor by third- parties other than the Clearinghouse, for any commercial purposes, including selling or licensing its data to third- parties.
2. Aggregation of Data
a) It is the goal of the Settling States and the Injunctive Relief Distributors for the Clearinghouse to obtain comprehensive data from all distributors, pharmacies, and other relevant data sources to provide maximum permissible transparency into the distribution and dispensing of Controlled Substances. During Phase 1, the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall develop recommendations for ways to achieve this goal.
b) In Phase 1, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall provide and/or facilitate the collection of, and the Clearinghouse shall collect and maintain, the following:
(1) Injunctive Relief Distributor transaction data for Controlled Substances and non-Controlled Substances, specified at the NDC, date, quantity, and customer level.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-29
(2) Injunctive Relief Distributor information on Customers that have been terminated and/or declined onboarding due to
concerns regarding Controlled Substance dispensing
following the Effective Date.
c) The Clearinghouse shall make available to the Injunctive Relief Distributors, in a format to be determined by the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel, blinded data for their CSMP due diligence functions. The data will include all Controlled Substances and non- Controlled Substances and be refreshed on a regular basis. The Clearinghouse will also seek to provide non-identifying information regarding whether a single distributor is associated with multiple warehouses with unique DEA registrations (e.g., multiple distribution centers operated by a single distributor), in the data it makes available.
d) During Phase 1, the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel (with input from its Dispensing Data subcommittee) will develop an
operational plan to obtain Dispensing Data directly from pharmacies, unless the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel determines it is inadvisable to do so. The operational plan developed by the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall address compliance with HIPAA and shall include recommendations to facilitate the collection of Dispensing Data in compliance with HIPAA and relevant state privacy laws. To the extent possible, the Clearinghouse will begin collecting Dispensing Data during Phase 1.
e) Nothing in the Injunctive Relief Terms shall require the Injunctive Relief Distributors to indemnify or otherwise be responsible to pharmacy customers for any claims resulting from the provision of Dispensing Data to the Clearinghouse, including, but not limited to, claims related to any data breaches occurring with the data transmitted to or maintained by the Clearinghouse.
3. State and Federal Reporting Requirements
a) The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall comply with state and federal transactional and Suspicious Order reporting requirements related to Controlled Substances as follows:
(1) Until such time as the Clearinghouse is able to provide transactional and Suspicious Order regulatory reporting to the states on behalf of the Injunctive Relief Distributors, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall continue to file all required reports under state law and those reports required by these Injunctive Relief Terms.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-30
(2) Once the Clearinghouse is able to process and submit such reports, the Clearinghouse may process and submit those reports on behalf of each Injunctive Relief Distributor to the states. At all times during Phase 1, each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall remain responsible for the
identification of Suspicious Orders and will remain liable for a failure to submit transactional data or Suspicious Order reports required under state law or these Injunctive Relief Terms.
(3) An Injunctive Relief Distributor may elect to fulfill its reporting obligations directly, rather than have the
Clearinghouse assume the responsibility for the
transmission of the various reports.
4. Additional Reports and Analytics
a) In consultation with the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel, the Clearinghouse shall work to develop additional reports and analyses to assist the Settling States and the Injunctive Relief Distributors in addressing Controlled Substance diversion, including, but not limited to, identifying Red Flags consistent with Section VIII.
b) The Clearinghouse will generate analyses and reports to be used by the Settling States and the Injunctive Relief Distributors based on format and content recommended by the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel. In order to refine the format and reach final
recommendations, the Clearinghouse shall prepare sample analytical reports for a sample geographic region to review with the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel. The sample reports will also be shared with the DEA in an effort to receive additional feedback. c) After the content and format of the sample reports have been approved by the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel, the Clearinghouse will begin producing reports on a periodic basis.
d) The Clearinghouse will develop capabilities to provide Settling States customized reports upon reasonable request to assist in their efforts to combat the diversion of Controlled Substances and for other public health and regulatory purposes.
e) After the Clearinghouse has obtained sufficient Dispensing Data from Customers, the Clearinghouse shall commence providing standard reports to the Settling States and Injunctive Relief Distributors that will include summaries and analysis of Dispensing Data. The reports and analytics of Dispensing Data DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-31
shall be developed in consultation with the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel (including its Dispensing Data subcommittee) and shall include, but not be limited to:
(1) Identification of Customers whose dispensing may indicate Red Flags consistent with Section VIII, as determined by the Clearinghouse from aggregate data; and
(2) Identification of Customers whose aggregate dispensing volumes for Highly Diverted Controlled Substances are
disproportionately high relative to the population of the relevant geographic area.
f) The Clearinghouse shall also prepare reports and analyses for the Settling States and Injunctive Relief Distributors identifying prescribers whose prescribing behavior suggests they may not be engaged in the legitimate practice of medicine. Such reports and analysis shall be developed in consultation with the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel (including its Dispensing Data subcommittee) and shall seek to identify and evaluate:
(1) Prescribers who routinely prescribe large volumes of Highly Diverted Controlled Substances relative to other prescribers with similar specialties, including health care professionals who prescribe a large number of prescriptions for high dosage amounts of Highly Diverted Controlled
Substances;
(2) Prescribers whose prescriptions for Highly Diverted Controlled Substances are routinely and disproportionately filled in a geographic area that is unusual based on the prescriber’s location; and
(3) Prescribers who routinely prescribe out-of-specialty or out- of-practice area without legitimate reason.
g) Reports or analysis generated by the Clearinghouse may not be based on complete data due to a lack of participation by non- Injunctive Relief Distributors and pharmacies. As such, Injunctive Relief Distributors shall not be held responsible for actions or inactions related to reports and analysis prepared by the Clearinghouse which may be based on incomplete data due to a lack of participation by non-Injunctive Relief Distributors and pharmacies.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-32
D. Phase 2 of the Clearinghouse: Additional Data Collection and Analytics and Assumption of CSMP Functions
Within one (1) year of Phase 1 of the Clearinghouse being operational, the Clearinghouse and the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall develop a detailed strategic and implementation plan for Phase 2 of the Clearinghouse (“Phase 2 Planning Report”). Phase 2 will consist of two parts. Phase 2-A will focus on increasing data collection from non-Injunctive Relief Distributors, pharmacies and other data sources and developing enhanced analytics based on the experiences gained from Phase 1. Phase 2-A will also include recommendations for the development of uniform federal and state reporting. Phase 2-B will involve the potential assumption of various CSMP activities, including Threshold setting and order management by the Clearinghouse. The Phase 2 Planning Report will address both Phase 2-A and Phase 2-B. After the completion of the Phase 2 Planning Report, individual Injunctive Relief Distributors, in their sole discretion, may elect not to proceed with Phase 2-B as provided by Section XVII.E. If one or more Injunctive Relief Distributors elect to proceed with Phase 2-B, the goal will be to have Phase 2-B fully operational within two (2) years of the Clearinghouse Retention Date and no later than three (3) years of the Clearinghouse Retention Date.
1. Phase 2-A: Additional Data Collection and Analytics
a) During Phase 2-A, the Clearinghouse will continue the functions defined in Phase 1 and work to expand the scope of its data collection and enhance its analytics and reporting capabilities including the following:
(1) Integration of data from additional sources, including:
(a) Transaction data from other distributors, including manufacturers that distribute directly to retail
pharmacies and pharmacies that self-warehouse;
and
(b) Where possible, state PDMP data and other data,
including, but not limited to, State Board of
Medicine and Board of Pharmacy sanctions, and
agreed-upon industry data. If state PDMP data is
effectively duplicative of Dispensing Data already
obtained in Phase 1, it will not be necessary for the
Clearinghouse to obtain state PDMP data.
(2) Development of additional metrics analyzing the data available from the additional data sources (PDMP, other pharmacy data, sanction authorities, and third-party volume projections).
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-33
(3) Development of real-time or near real-time access to distribution data, dispensing data and other data sources. (4) Refinement of methodologies for analyzing Dispensing Data to identify suspicious prescribers.
(5) Development of additional capabilities to provide Settling States, the Injunctive Relief Distributors and potentially the DEA customized reporting from the Clearinghouse upon
reasonable request.
2. Phase 2-A: Uniform Required Reporting
a) The Clearinghouse and the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall develop uniform reporting recommendations for potential implementation by state regulators in order to allow the Injunctive Relief Distributors to satisfy their obligations under the Injunctive Relief Terms and state and federal laws in a uniform and consistent manner.
b) It is a goal of the Settling States and the Injunctive Relief Distributors to:
(1) Streamline and simplify required reporting which will benefit the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the Settling States, as well as the DEA;
(2) Develop uniform transactional and Suspicious Order
reporting requirements; and
(3) Provide for the submission of uniform Suspicious Order reports.
3. Phase 2-B: Clearinghouse Assumption of CSMP Functions a) With respect to Phase 2-B, the Phase 2 Planning Report shall address:
(1) Engagement with stakeholders, including the DEA, to develop the system of Threshold setting and Suspicious
Order reporting to potentially be provided by the
Clearinghouse;
(2) Development of technology and rules, including any
proposed changes to federal law or regulations;
(3) Development of models for the identification of Suspicious Orders and setting universal Thresholds in a manner
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-34
consistent with Section XII. These models shall include active order management and order fulfillment protocols to ensure that orders are compared to relevant Thresholds by the Clearinghouse before shipment instructions are
provided by the Clearinghouse to the Injunctive Relief
Distributors. The models shall also include the
identification of Suspicious Orders when they are placed by Customers, which will be held before shipment or blocked based on instructions provided by the Clearinghouse to the Injunctive Relief Distributors.
(4) Development of criteria governing distribution to
Customers that have placed one or more Orders that exceed a Threshold;
(5) Development of rules for allocating Orders placed by Customers that have more than one Distributor if one or more Orders exceed a Threshold;
(6) Development of a pilot project for a sample geographic region to perform data analysis to test the models for
Threshold setting and the identification of Suspicious
Orders.
b) Following implementation of Phase 2-B, the Injunctive Relief Distributors participating in Phase 2-B and the State Compliance Review Committee shall meet and confer with respect to whether to expand the scope of the Clearinghouse to cover additional anti- diversion functions, such as the performance of due diligence. c) CSMP functions that have been assumed by the Clearinghouse during Phase 2-B will no longer be performed by participating Injunctive Relief Distributors individually through their CSMPs.
CSMP functions performed by the Clearinghouse will assist participating Injunctive Relief Distributors to satisfy the applicable legal obligations of those Injunctive Relief Distributors. The Clearinghouse’s performance of CSMP functions will not relieve participating Injunctive Relief Distributors from their legal obligations unless (i) the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee jointly enter into a written agreement for the Clearinghouse to assume legal requirements during Phase 2-B; and (ii) all vendors and consultants working on the Clearinghouse agree in writing to assume such obligations.
Nothing in this paragraph shall apply to any Injunctive Relief Distributor that does not participate in Phase 2-B pursuant to Section XVII.E.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-35
E. Option to Opt Out of Phase 2-B
1. Each Injunctive Relief Distributor shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to elect not to participate in Phase 2-B at any point. In the event that an Injunctive Relief Distributor elects not to participate in Phase 2-B, that Injunctive Relief Distributor shall cease to have any obligation to fund future costs directly related to Phase 2-B of the Clearinghouse or to implement the Clearinghouse’s determinations as to identification of Suspicious Orders and Suspicious Order reporting. If an Injunctive Relief Distributor elects not to participate in Phase 2-B, that Injunctive Relief Distributor shall remain responsible for the requirements specified for Phase 1 and Phase 2-A of the Clearinghouse and shall be responsible for contributing to the costs associated with Phase 1 and Phase 2-A.
2. In the event that an Injunctive Relief Distributor elects not to participate in Phase 2-B, the Clearinghouse Advisory Panel shall discuss and make recommendations for any necessary adjustments to the Phase 2-B capabilities described in Section XVII.D.3.

This may include consideration of a user fee or other model by which non-Injunctive Relief Distributors that use the Clearinghouse will contribute to funding the Clearinghouse.
7. In the event that ten (10) or more Settling States reach agreements with any national retail chain pharmacies to resolve claims related to the distribution of Controlled Substances, the Settling States’ Attorneys’ General agree to make participation in the Clearinghouse, including providing data to the Clearinghouse and contribution to the cost of the operation of the Clearinghouse, a condition of any settlement. The Settling States’ Attorneys’ General agree to make best efforts to ensure that any other settling distributors and/or pharmacies participate in the Clearinghouse. To the extent that the Attorneys General are able to secure participation by additional distributors and/or pharmacies, it is anticipated that, to the extent practicable based on the financial and relative size of the settling distributor and/or pharmacy, those entities will contribute to the cost of the operation of the Clearinghouse.

XVIII. MONITOR
A. Monitor Selection and Engagement
1. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall engage a Monitor to perform the reviews described in Section XVIII.F. The Monitor shall employ or retain personnel who have appropriate qualifications related to the pharmaceutical industry and the laws governing the distribution of pharmaceuticals, the distribution of Controlled Substances, and the applicable requirements of federal and state law. The Monitor may also employ or retain personnel who have appropriate qualifications in the audit and review of sample documents in order to conduct the reviews described in Section XVIII.F. To the extent additional expertise is required for the engagement, the Monitor may retain the services of third-party consultants.
2. The Monitor must perform each review described in Section XVIII.F in a professionally independent and objective fashion, as defined in the most recent Government Auditing Standards issued by the United States Government Accountability Office. A Monitor shall not be engaged in active litigation involving one or more of the Injunctive Relief Distributors or Settling States or present a potential conflict of interest involving matters concerning an Injunctive Relief Distributor, except by agreement of the affected parties. If the Monitor is employed by an entity that performed work for any Injunctive Relief Distributor or any of the Settling States prior to the Effective Date, the Monitor will cause to be implemented appropriate ethical walls between the Monitor team and the employees of the firm who have previously performed work for an Injunctive Relief Distributor or any of the Settling States.
3. The process for selecting the Monitor shall be as follows:
a) Within sixty (60) calendar days of the Effective Date, the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee shall exchange pools of recommended candidates to serve as the Monitor. The pools shall each contain the names of three (3) individuals, groups of individuals, or firms. b) After receiving the pools of Monitor candidates, the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee shall have the right to meet with the candidates and conduct appropriate interviews of the personnel who are expected to work on the project. The Injunctive Relief Distributors (individually or in combination) and the State Compliance Review Committee may veto any of the candidates, and must do so in writing within thirty (30) days of receiving the pool of candidates. If all three (3) candidates within a pool are rejected by either the Injunctive Relief DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-39
Distributors or the State Compliance Review Committee, the party who rejected the three (3) candidates may direct the other party to provide up to three (3) additional qualified candidates within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of said notice.
c) If the Injunctive Relief Distributors or the State Compliance Review Committee do not object to a proposed candidate, the Injunctive Relief Distributors or the State Compliance Review Committee shall so notify the other in writing within thirty (30) days of receiving the pool of candidates. If more than one candidate remains, the State Compliance Review Committee shall select the Monitor from the remaining candidates. Within thirty (30) calendar days of the selection of the Monitor, the Injunctive Relief Distributors shall retain the Monitor, and finalize all terms of engagement, supplying a copy of an engagement letter to the State Compliance Review Committee. The terms of engagement shall include a process by which Injunctive Relief Distributors may challenge Monitor costs as excessive, duplicative or unnecessary, which process must be approved by the State Compliance Review Committee.
4. The Injunctive Relief Distributors shall be responsible for the Monitor’s fees and costs directly related to its performance of the work specified by the Injunctive Relief Terms up to a limit of $1,000,000 per year per Injunctive Relief Distributor (i.e.
, a total of $3,000,000 per year).
5. Prior to each year, the Monitor shall submit a combined annual budget to the Injunctive Relief Distributors and State Compliance Review Committee that shall not exceed a total of $3,000,000. The Monitor shall submit quarterly reports to the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee tracking actual spend to the annual budget.
6. In the event that any of the Injunctive Relief Distributors or State Compliance Review Committee believe that the Monitor is not performing its duties and responsibilities under the Injunctive Relief Terms in a reasonably cost effective manner, an Injunctive Relief Distributor or the State Compliance Review Committee shall recommend in writing changes to the Monitor’s practices to reduce cost. The Monitor, Injunctive Relief Distributors, and the State Compliance Review Committee shall meet and confer in good faith in response to such a recommendation.
7. In the event that the Injunctive Relief Distributor and the State Compliance Review Committee cannot agree on whether the recommended cost reductions are warranted, either the State Compliance Review Committee or the Injunctive Relief Distributors may submit the question to the National Arbitration Panel, who shall determine whether DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-40
the Monitor is performing its duties and responsibilities under the Injunctive Relief Terms in a reasonably cost effective manner, and, if not, the necessary changes to the Monitor’s practices to reduce cost.
8. If the National Arbitration Panel determines that the Monitor cannot complete the reviews described in Section XVIII.F within the combined annual budget of $3,000,000, the National Arbitration Panel shall require the Monitor to provide the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee with a written report explaining why it is not possible to complete the reviews within budget and all steps the Monitor has taken to perform its duties and responsibilities under the Injunctive Relief Terms in a reasonably cost effective manner. After receiving the Monitor’s report, the Injunctive Relief Distributors, and the State Compliance Review Committee shall meet and confer in good faith to determine whether an increase in the combined budget is appropriate. If the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee cannot reach an agreement on the amount of the reasonable costs in excess of $3,000,000 for the relevant year, the issue will be submitted to the National Arbitration Panel for resolution. The National Arbitration Panel may award additional costs up to total cap of $5,000,000 for the relevant year ($3,000,000 plus an additional $2,000,000).
9. Unless the Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee agree otherwise as part of the meet and confer process in the prior paragraph (such as by agreeing to limit the Monitor’s duties and responsibilities for the remainder of the year), the amount above $3,000,000 and up to the total cap of $5,000,000 in a given year necessary for the Monitor to complete the reviews described in Section XVIII.F shall be divided evenly among the Injunctive Relief Distributors without reducing any other amounts that are the responsibility of the Injunctive Relief Distributors.
B. Early Termination of the Monitor
1. In the event any of the Injunctive Relief Distributors or State Compliance Review Committee believe that the Monitor is not performing its duties and responsibilities under the Injunctive Relief Terms in a reasonably professional, competent and independent manner, an Injunctive Relief Distributor or the State Compliance Review Committee shall recommend replacement of the Monitor in writing. The Injunctive Relief Distributors and the State Compliance Review Committee shall meet and confer in good faith in response to a recommendation to replace the Monitor. If the State Compliance Review Committee and the Injunctive Relief Distributors agree that the Monitor should be replaced, a replacement Monitor will be selected in the manner set forth in Section XVIII.A.3.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-41
2. In the event the Injunctive Relief Distributor and the State Compliance Review Committee cannot agree on whether the Monitor should be replaced, either the State Compliance Review Committee or the Injunctive Relief Distributors may submit the question of the Monitor’s dismissal to the National Arbitration Panel, and the Monitor shall only be dismissed if that panel finds that there is Good Cause for dismissal. Good Cause for dismissal shall mean (a) a material and substantial breach of the terms of the Monitor’s obligations under the Injunctive Relief Terms; (b) any act of dishonesty, misappropriation, embezzlement, intentional fraud, or similar conduct by the Monitor; (c) any clear pattern of bias or prejudice in favor or against any party by the Monitor; (d) conduct by the Monitor that demonstrates unfitness to fulfill the functions of the Monitor reasonably and competently; or (e) conflicts of interest described in Section XVIII.A.2. If the panel finds that the Monitor should be dismissed, a replacement Monitor will be selected in the manner set forth in Section XVIII.A.3.
3. In addition, if the Monitor resigns for any reason, a replacement Monitor will be selected in the manner set forth in Section XVIII.A.3.
C. Term and Reporting Periods
1. The term of the Monitor will be five (5) years from the date the Monitor is appointed, divided into one-year periods for purposes of the reviews and reporting described in Section XVIII (“Reporting Periods”).
D. Monitor Access to Information
1. In connection with its reviews set forth in Section XVIII.F, the Monitor may request to interview employees with appropriate authority and responsibilities as necessary. In the event that an Injunctive Relief Distributor believes that the Monitor is requesting an unreasonable number of interviews or requesting interviews of employees who do not have relevant information to the reviews required by Section XVIII.F, the Injunctive Relief Distributor and State Compliance Review Committee shall meet and confer in good faith to resolve this issue.
2. The Chief Diversion Control Officer of each Injunctive Relief Distributor or a direct report of the Chief Diversion Control Officer shall serve as the primary point of contact for the Monitor to facilitate the Monitor’s access to documents, materials, or staff necessary to conduct the reviews specified in Section XVIII.F. The Monitor shall communicate any request for documents, materials, or access to staff to the Chief Diversion Control Officers or their designees.
3. If at any time the Monitor believes there is undue delay, resistance, interference, limitation, or denial of access to any records or to any DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
P-42
employee or former employee deemed necessary by the Monitor to conduct the reviews specified in Section XVIII.F, the Monitor shall notify the Chief Diversion Control Officer of the Injunctive Relief Distributor and they shall meet and confer to resolve such issue. If the Monitor believes that the matter was not resolved, the Monitor shall immediately report the issue to the State Compliance Review Committee.
4. To the extent any of the documents requested by the Monitor contain material protected from disclosure by any legal privilege, including the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product protections, an Injunctive Relief Distributor may redact such material before providing the documents to the Monitor, but must provide the Monitor with a privilege log describing the redacted information and identifying the basis for redaction.
5. Notwithstanding any other information referenced and produced pursuant to Section XVIII, the Monitor shall have access to, and each Injunctive Relief Distributor’s Chief Diversion Control Officer shall produce to the Monitor, any settlement agreements with government entities entered into after the Effective Date specifically concerning the requirements contained in the Injunctive Relief Terms and an Injunctive Relief Distributor’s distribution of Controlled Substances (as opposed to distribution of pharmaceutical products in general).

Absent agreement between the State Compliance Review Committee and Injunctive Relief Distributors, all provisions set forth in Section XIX involving the Monitor are excused after the Monitor’s term has ended.
4. Should an Injunctive Relief Distributor allege in good faith that a Settling State or the Monitor has impaired the ability of the Injunctive Relief Distributor to meet the Injunctive Relief Terms, the Injunctive Relief Distributor may request the State Compliance Review Committee to mediate any dispute in an effort to avoid the time and expense of litigation regarding interpretation and enforcement of the Injunctive Relief Terms.

5. Conference for Parties re Notice of Potential Violation. The parties to the Notice shall meet or otherwise confer regarding the Potential Violation.
The parties and the Monitor shall make themselves available for such a meeting (which may at any party’s election be a virtual or technology- based meeting), provided, however, that the meeting is not required to take place sooner than fifteen (15) days after a written response to the Notice of Potential Violation.
6. Process for Previously-Submitted Notices of Potential Violation. At the request of the parties to a Notice, the Monitor shall determine whether the Notice implicates the same or similar issues as a previously submitted Notice or is a matter previously identified by the Monitor in an Audit Report involving the same party alleged to have engaged in a Potential Violation, and make an initial determination as to whether the issues needs to be addressed anew.

3. Awards of fees from the Contingency Fee Fund shall be available to Attorneys with Qualifying Representations of Participating Litigating Subdivisions eligible to receive an allocation under the Distributor Agreement, as set forth in Exhibit G to the Distributor Agreement, and shall be made applying the Mathematical Model attached as Exhibit A to this Fee Agreement (“Mathematical Model”). The collection of the data and calculations for the Mathematical Model has been a cooperative effort among private counsel for a large number of Litigating Subdivisions. The analysis has been spearheaded by Joseph Tann and Andrew Arnold. The Fee Panel is encouraged to continue working with those counsel in application of the Model. The Fee Panel shall oversee the application of the Model and resolve any questions or disputes concerning the eligibility of an Attorney to participate as required in Section II.G. The Panel is empowered to hear disputes concerning and ensure the accuracy of the mathematical calculation.
4. As to awards from the Contingency Fee Fund, there shall be no right of appeal.

2. The Common Benefit Fund shall be available to compensate Attorneys engaged in Qualifying Representations of Participating Litigating Subdivisions who:
a. have performed work for the common benefit of all subdivisions pursuant to the guidelines established by Judge Polster set forth in MDL 2804 and the Order dated June 19, 2018, under docket number 636, which is included herein by reference; and
b. satisfy the eligibility criteria set forth in Section II.G.
For purposes of Common Benefit Fund distribution, notwithstanding Section II.A.4 above, Attorneys representing Tribal Nations litigating against the Settling Distributors that have reached a settlement for Released Claims with Settling Distributors and/or Released Entities and meet the eligibility criteria in Section II.G shall be eligible.
3. The Common Benefit Fund shall be overseen by the Fee Panel, which shall determine the allocation of funds to eligible Attorneys consistent with this Fee Agreement and the June 19, 2018 Order.
4. In assessing the benefits that an Attorney has conferred to Participating Subdivisions (including non-Litigating Subdivisions) and/or Tribal Nations for purposes of any compensation decision, the Fee Panel shall give significant weight to the extent to which (i) the Attorney and his or her clients have contributed to increasing (or reducing) the Initial Participation Tier achieved through participation in the Distributor Agreement; (ii) the Attorney and his or her clients have contributed to increasing (or reducing) the amounts achieved under Incentive Payments A-D through participation in the Distributor Agreement; and (iii) the Attorney and his or her clients have contributed to the potential triggering of any suspension, reduction, or offset of Payment amounts under the Distributor Agreement. The Fee Panel may also consider additional fee recoveries the Attorney may potentially obtain, including, but not limited to, from State Back-Stop Agreements, representations of States or Tribal Nations, representations of other clients in opioids-related matters, or through the representation of Subdivision clients, whether they participated in the Distributor Agreement or not. It is the intent of this provision to recognize that the goal of the Distributor Agreement is to provide for maximum participation by the Subdivisions, maximum abatement funding for all Subdivisions nationally, and the maximum peace for Released Entities. Therefore, representing a Non- Participating Subdivision does not further the goal of the Distributor Agreement and should not be considered Common Benefit because it does not increase funds available to Participating Subdivisions’ abatement programs. Representing Later Litigating Subdivisions is antithetical to the Distributor Agreement, detracts from Common Benefit, and is addressed by the ethics opinion discussed in Section II.I.4. The Fee Panel shall consider this concept of “common detriment” set forth in this Section II.C.4 in all of its decisionmaking with respect to the allocation of the Attorney Fee Fund among Attorneys, as well as, in its discretion, any offsets provided to Settling Distributors as set forth in Section II.C.6. The Fee Panel shall consider the totality of the Attorney’s Participating Litigating Subdivisions as compared to the Attorney’s Non-Participating Litigating DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
R-6
Subdivisions; the Parties recognize that, although the goal is for 100% participation, Attorneys with a higher number of clients have a higher probability of having one or more Non-Participating Litigating Subdivision client. As used in this Section II.C.4, “client” or “representing” a Subdivision shall include any Litigating Subdivision as to which the Attorney has a Fee Entitlement.
5. As set forth in Section II.C.6, the Fee Panel must consider the factors described in Section II.C.4 to determine how and whether to reduce the amounts to be paid by Settling Distributors under this Fee Agreement and to determine how to allocate funds among Attorneys. They may also, at their discretion, consider other factors. Any reduction in payment obligation or credit to be given a Settling Distributor in this Fee Agreement shall be applied against Payment Year 7 and working backwards. Any reduction to an Attorney not credited to Settling Distributors shall be allocated to attorneys whose Litigating Subdivision clients participated in the settlement by the Initial Participation Date.
6. The amounts to be provided as a credit or offset to Settling Distributors from the Common Benefit Fund shall depend on the relevant Participation Tier achieved, set forth in Exhibit H of the Distributor Agreement, as follows:
a. At Participation Tier 1 or below, the Common Benefit Fund payments to be paid by Settling Distributors shall be reduced as follows:
(i) With respect to any Attorney seeking payment from the Common Benefit Fund, the Fee Panel shall compare the aggregate allocation that Participating Litigating Subdivisions with which the Attorney has a Fee Entitlement would receive using the negotiating class allocation metrics with the aggregate amount that all Litigating Subdivisions (Participating and Non-Participating) with which the Attorney has a Fee Entitlement would receive using the negotiating class allocation metrics, provided that only Litigating Subdivisions in Settling States shall be considered for this ratio. The Fee Panel will multiply the amount to be paid to that Attorney from the Common Benefit Fund by that ratio, reduce the Attorney’s award by a maximum reduction of 15%, and the dollar amount of such reduction shall be deducted, dollar-for- dollar, from the amount owed by Settling Distributors to the Common Benefit Fund of the Attorney Fee Fund.
(ii) In the event that any Non-Participating Subdivision that is (a) under the jurisdiction of the MDL Court or (b) represented by an Attorney that is obligated to pay into the MDL Common Benefit Fund pursuant to a Participation Agreement, an order of the MDL Court, or any other arrangement settles with or wins a judgment against a Released Entity separate from the Distributor Agreement, and such settlement or judgment results in a common benefit fee assessment or fee payment into the MDL Common Benefit Fund during the time of Settling Distributors’ obligation to pay fees under this Fee Agreement, Settling Distributors’ DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
R-7
obligation to pay into the Common Benefit Fund shall be reduced dollar- for-dollar for any amount of such fee assessments or payments (in the aggregate based on all reductions in this Section II.C.6.a.ii that exceed the reductions in Section II.C.6.a.i).
(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, in Tier 1 for each settlement or judgment with the Settling Distributors that results in an assessment or payment to the MDL Common Benefit Fund, that payment shall result in an offset for the Settling Distributors, unless the assessment or payment occurs after the Payment Date for Year 7.
b. At Participation Tier 2, the Common Benefit Fund payments to be made by Settling Distributors shall be reduced only as follows:
(i) Reduction by the Fee Panel. With respect to all Attorneys making an application that seeks payment from the Common Benefit Fund, the Fee Panel shall, following a determination that an Attorney is eligible under Section II.G, apply the criteria specified in Section II.C.4 in determining whether the lack of participation by Subdivisions with which an Attorney has a Fee Entitlement has resulted in a reduction in the Participation Tier achieved, reduction in benefit to Participating Subdivisions as a result of reductions in Incentive Payments A-D, and/or potential triggering of a suspension, reduction or offset under the Distributor Agreement. If the Fee Panel concludes that such a reduction has occurred, it must consider (1) the relative size of the Non- Participating Subdivision, as adjusted by the severity measures reflected in Exhibit H (governing the Participation Tiers) of the Distributor Agreement, and the impact of its non-participation on the Distributor Agreement as a whole (including amounts of Incentive Payments and triggering of suspensions, reductions or offsets); (2) whether and by how much the payment to the Attorney from the Common Benefit Fund should be reduced as a result of the impact of such non-participation on Participating Subdivisions; and (3) whether some or all of said reduction should revert to Settling Distributors due to the reduction in peace obtained from the Distributor Agreement. Consideration of the factors discussed in this Section II.C.6.b.i and Section II.C.4 is mandatory. The decision whether to (and by how much to) reduce payments by Settling Distributors or to reduce the payment to any Attorney based on the factors in Section II.C.4 shall be in the sole discretion of the Fee Panel. (ii) Offsets.
(1) In the event that any Non-Participating
Subdivision that is (a) under the jurisdiction of the MDL Court or (b) represented by an Attorney that is obligated to pay into the MDL Common Benefit Fund pursuant to a Participation
Agreement, an order of the MDL Court, or any other arrangement DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

R-8
settles with or wins a judgment against a Released Entity separate from the Distributor Agreement, and such settlement or judgment results in a common benefit fee assessment or fee payment into the MDL Common Benefit Fund during the time of Settling Distributors’ obligation to pay Common Benefit Fees under this Fee Agreement, Settling Distributors’ obligation to pay into the Common Benefit Fund shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar up to the amount of the fee assessment or payment, except that such amount shall be capped at 7.5% of the amount of the settlement or judgment. Such reduction shall be taken first from Payment Year 7 of Settling Distributors’ payments to the Common Benefit Fund of the Attorney Fee Fund up to the full amount of Settling Distributors’ payment obligation in Payment Year 7, then from Payment Year 6, and so on.
(2) For the avoidance of doubt, for each settlement or
judgment with the Settling Distributors that results in an assessment or payment to the MDL Common Benefit Fund, that payment shall result in an offset for the Settling Distributors, unless the assessment or payment occurs after the Payment Date for Payment Year 7.
c. At Participation Tier 3, the reductions to the Attorney Fee Fund shall be the same as set forth in Section II.C.6.b, except that the cap on each offset shall be 5% of the amount of such settlement or judgment. d. At Participation Tier 4, there shall be no reductions to the Settling Distributors’ obligations to make payment into the Common Benefit Fund, but the principles set forth in Section II.C.4 shall continue to apply.
D. Contingency Fee Fund. (40% of the Attorney Fee Fund.)
1. Funds from the Attorney Fee Fund shall be allocated to the Contingency Fee Fund on the following yearly schedule, subject to the adjustments set forth below:
Payment Year 1 $54,417,751.48

3. The Contingency Fee Fund shall be available to Attorneys who:
a. represent Litigating Subdivisions that are Participating Subdivisions, whether their actions are filed in state or federal court; and b. meet the eligibility criteria of Section II.G.
c. Participation in the Contingency Fee Fund by counsel that have a case that is not subject to the jurisdiction of the MDL Court shall not create, provide, or waive jurisdiction of the MDL Court over that Litigating Subdivision, that case or Attorneys, other than to oversee the fairness of the distribution process, and enforcement of this Fee Agreement.
4. The amounts owed by Settling Distributors to the Contingency Fee Fund shall depend on the relevant Participation Tier set forth in Exhibit H of the Distributor Agreement as follows:
a. At Participation Tiers 1, 2 and 3, the Contingency Fee Fund payments shall be reduced as follows:
(i) For Non-Settling States, the Contingency Fee Fund
payments shall first be reduced by the amounts identified by the Fee Panel, pursuant to Section II.H.6, that would have been owed to counsel for Litigating Subdivisions in Non-Settling States, had those States and those Litigating Subdivisions been Settling States and Participating Subdivisions.
(ii) Following the calculation in Section II.D.4.a.i, the Contingency Fee Fund payments shall be reduced to reflect the non- joinder of Litigating Subdivisions in Settling States by subtracting the amounts identified by the Fee Panel, pursuant to Section II.H.6, that would have been owed to counsel for Non-Participating Litigating Subdivisions in Settling States had such Litigating Subdivisions been Participating Subdivisions.
b. At Participation Tier 4, there shall be no reductions in the Contingency Fee Fund.
c. In the event that the Settling Distributors, prior to the Effective Date of the Distributor Agreement, settle with any Litigating Subdivision and, under such settlement agreement pay attorneys’ fees, the Fee Panel shall treat those Litigating Subdivisions as Participating Litigating Subdivisions and, applying the same criteria applicable to all Attorneys for Participating Litigating DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

Subdivisions, determine what amount they would have been paid from the Contingency Fee Fund if they had become Participating Subdivisions under the Distributor Agreement without such prior settlement. That sum, rather than being paid to the Attorney for the previously settled Litigating Subdivision, shall be credited and/or returned to the Settling Defendants as if determined under Section II.D.4.a.ii above, except that such credit shall not be greater than the amount to the Attorneys paid under the Litigating Subdivision’s prior settlement agreement.
E. Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund.
1. The Settling Distributors shall pay $120,000,000 into the Subdivision Cost Fund, according to the schedule set forth below:
Payment Year 1 $40,000,000
Payment Year 2 $40,000,000
Payment Year 3 $40,000,000
2. The Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund shall be available to compensate Attorneys for costs and expenses arising out of representation of Participating Litigating Subdivisions or to compensate Participating Litigating Subdivisions for direct in-house costs for expenditures related to their litigation against the Settling Distributors, including the cost of in-house employees. No funds in the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund may be used to compensate the costs incurred by Non-Participating Subdivisions or Non- Litigating Subdivisions or costs and expenses arising out of representation of any such Subdivision. In allocating the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund, the Administrator shall not allocate any funds for costs incurred after July 21, 2021.
3. During the period between July 21, 2021, and the Effective Date, the MDL PEC, as well as Litigating Subdivisions eligible to claim costs from the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund shall make best efforts to cease litigation activity against Settling Distributors, including by jointly seeking stays or severance of claims against the Settling Distributors, where feasible, or postponements if a motion to stay or sever is not feasible or is denied, so long as such actions are not otherwise detrimental to the Litigating Subdivision.
4. In the event that the Settling Distributors, prior to the Effective Date of the Distributor Agreement, settle with any Litigating Subdivision and, under such settlement agreement pay costs to the Litigating Subdivision or its Attorney, the MDL Cost and Expense Fund Administrator shall treat those Litigating Subdivisions as Participating Litigating Subdivisions and, using the same criteria applicable to all applicants to the Subdivision Cost Fund, determine what amount in costs the Litigating Subdivision or its Attorney would have been paid from the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund if it had settled under the Distributor Agreement. That sum, rather than being paid to the Attorney or the previously settling Litigating Subdivision, shall be credited and/or returned to the Settling Defendants, except that such sum shall not be greater than the amount paid under the previously settled Litigating Subdivision’s settlement agreement.

5. The MDL Court shall appoint a Cost and Expense Fund Administrator, who shall develop a process and criteria, with input from participating counsel, by which to (a) determine the distribution of amounts from the MDL Expense Fund in pursuit of the claims against Settling Distributors; and (b) receive and evaluate applications from Participating Litigating Subdivisions, whether filed in Federal Court or State Court, to seek reimbursement from the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund for eligible costs under Section II.E.2 in pursuit of the claims against the Settling Distributors. The Cost and Expense Fund Administrator shall require transparency from all applicants as to any other sources for compensating Attorneys for Litigating Subdivisions for costs incurred. The Cost and Expense Fund Administrator shall be compensated from the Fund.
6. In the event that the total amount of reimbursements from the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund approved as reasonable by the Cost and Expense Administrator is less than the $120,000,000, any remaining funds shall revert to the Settling Distributors.
F. MDL Expense Fund.
1. In Payment Year 1 of the Distributor Agreement, the Settling Distributors shall pay the following amount into the MDL Expense Fund:
MDL Expense Fund $40,384,615
2. The MDL Expense Fund shall be released following the Effective Date of this Fee Agreement without any delay to reimburse the MDL Counsel for an agreed-to portion of the expenses incurred, as approved by the Cost and Expense Fund Administrator. The MDL Expense Fund will be paid directly to the MDL Cost Account, set up by MDL Order and will be administered under the ongoing jurisdiction of the MDL Court, as provided below. No funds may be used to compensate the costs incurred by Non-Participating Subdivisions or to compensate any Attorney for costs incurred in representing one or more Non-Participating Subdivisions.
3. In allocating the MDL Expense Fund, the Administrator shall not allocate any funds for costs incurred after July 21, 2021, unless the Administrator determines that there are sufficient funds to cover all subdivision costs incurred prior to July 21, 2021 and that special circumstances exist to justify costs incurred following the public announcement of the Distributor Agreement.
G. Eligibility.
1. It is the intention of all parties participating in the Fee Panel process that there should be total transparency to the Fee Panel and to all fund participants. In connection with the process to be developed by the Fee Panel, any and all monies in attorney’s fees, including referral fees, expenses paid, promises for payment, or any other Fee Entitlement, to any applicant in any opioid litigation shall be disclosed to the Fee Panel as a condition of participating in the Attorney Fee Fund and prior to an award from the Fee Panel. Any payment, expectation of payment or perceived entitlement to participate in a State Back-Stop Agreement or any other agreement reached with a DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
R-12
Settling State or any Subdivision or any other source regarding payment of fees must be disclosed to the Fee Panel. Similarly, any right to payment from any other fund, for example a fund for payment to lawyers representing Settling States or Tribal Nations or Subdivisions shall be disclosed to the Fee Panel. Because it is anticipated that there will be multiple firms listed on contingent fee agreements with Litigating Subdivisions, the Fee Panel shall establish procedures, with input from Attorneys for Participating Litigating Subdivisions, for who should petition for fees from such groups and to whom the fee shall be paid and thereafter distributed to co-counsel in accordance with applicable agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, all Attorneys that are part of such groups must meet the eligibility criteria in Section II.G, must be subject to the criteria set forth in Section II.C.4, and must be disclosed to the Fee Panel.
2. An Attorney may apply for and recover attorneys’ fees from the Common Benefit Fund, the Contingency Fee Fund, and the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund and any fund created by a past or future State Back-Stop Agreement, provided the Attorney satisfies the requirements relevant to each such fund and requirements for disclosure to the Fee Panel.
3. An Attorney may not receive any payment from the Attorney Fee Fund (which includes both the Contingency Fee Fund and the Common Benefit Fund) unless the following eligibility criteria are met and annually certified by the Attorney:
a. The Attorney must expressly waive the enforcement against the Litigating Subdivision client of all Fee Entitlements (other than under State Back- Stop Agreements) arising out of or related to any or all Qualifying Representations of any Participating Litigating Subdivision prior to applying for attorneys’ fees from the Attorney Fee Fund or costs from the Cost Funds. All applications for attorneys’ fees or costs under this Fee Agreement shall include an affirmation by the Attorney of such waiver and notice to the client(s) of such waiver. Such waiver shall not preclude the Attorney from submitting such Fee Entitlements to the Fee Panel as a factor for consideration in allocating payments from the Attorney Fee Fund or in connection with a State Back-Stop Agreement.
For the avoidance of doubt, no Attorney may recover fees under this Fee Agreement unless the Attorney expressly agrees not to enforce Fee Entitlements as to each and every Participating Litigating Subdivision represented by that Attorney, but such Attorneys may participate in and receive funds from a State Back-Stop Agreement.
b. The Attorney must represent that s/he has no present intent to represent or participate in the representation of any Later Litigating Subdivision or any Releasor with respect to Released Claims against Released Entities. c. The Attorney must represent that s/he has not and will not engage in any advertising or solicitation related to Released Claims against Released Entities where such advertising or solicitation relates to a representation that the Attorney could not undertake consistent with the ethics opinion referenced in Section II.I.4.
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
R-13
d. The Attorney must represent s/he will not charge or accept any referral fees for any Released Claims brought against Released Entities by Later Litigating Subdivisions. For the avoidance of doubt, this representation shall not prohibit Attorneys from receiving allocated shares of any future common benefit assessments arising out of settlements or judgments with Later Litigating Subdivisions represented by other Attorneys that are the result of the MDL Court’s Common Benefit order.
e. The Attorney may not have and must represent that s/he does not have a Fee Entitlement related to a Later Litigating Subdivision. f. The Attorney must certify that s/he has reviewed the ethics opinion referenced in Section II.I.4 and will act in conformity with such opinion. g. The Attorney must fully disclose the participation, or the anticipation of participation, in any agreement with a Settling State or Participating Subdivision concerning fees arising out of or related to the Distributor Agreement, including any fees paid or anticipated to be paid or any State Back-Stop Agreement.
h. The Attorney must identify for the Fee Panel whether s/he utilized state litigation work product or MDL work product, including but not limited to ARCOS data, document repositories, experts developed in the MDL, and deposition transcripts. The Attorney must identify whether s/he signed the MDL Participation Agreement, and for which case(s) it was signed. i. Any Attorney who applies for fees from one or both Funds must represent that, having exercised his/her independent judgment, s/he believes the Distributor Agreement to be fair and will make or has made best efforts to recommend the Distributor Agreement to his or her Subdivision clients in Settling States. For the avoidance of doubt, each Attorney is expected to exercise his or her independent judgment in the best interest of each client individually before determining whether to recommend joining the settlement. All applications for attorneys’ fees or costs under this Section II shall include an affirmation by the Attorney in compliance with this Section II.G.
4. No Attorney receiving fees under this Fee Agreement may apply for or recover from the Attorney Fee Fund fees arising from representing a Non-Settling State or a Non-Participating Subdivision. All applications for attorneys’ fees under this Section II shall include an affirmation by the Attorney of compliance with this Section II.
5. An Attorney who has filed an application under this Section II and received an award of attorneys’ fees shall provide a certification of compliance this Fee Agreement annually during the years upon which they are still entitled to receive attorneys’ fee payments.

6. If, at any time, the Attorney is unable to make the representations set forth in this Section II.G.3, such representations become untrue, or the Attorney falsely represents compliance with the eligibility criteria, the Attorney shall cease to be eligible to receive funds from the Attorney Fee Fund until further review by the Fee Panel of the Attorney’s eligibility under and compliance with this Section II.
7. If an Attorney has a Fee Entitlement from a Later Litigating Subdivision or otherwise becomes unable to reaffirm compliance with the eligibility criteria set forth above, the Attorney shall notify Settling Distributors and the Fee Panel. For the avoidance of doubt, any Attorney who undertakes any new representation of, or has a Fee Entitlement to, a Later Litigating Subdivision shall be prohibited from receiving any future funds from the Attorney Fee Fund. If an Attorney fails to notify Settling Distributors and the Fee Panel of such Fee Entitlement to a Later Litigating Subdivision, the Attorney shall be required to refund amounts previously paid.
8. In the event that an Attorney is deemed ineligible by the Fee Panel (whether based on its initial application or subsequent recertification), the Fee Panel shall provide notice to the Attorney and give the Attorney 30 days to provide additional information such that the Fee Panel could reconsider the Attorney’s eligibility.
9. To the extent that an Attorney has a Fee Entitlement with a Participating Subdivision and is authorized to bring Released Claims against Released Entities, but such authorization is, in scope, less broad than the category of Released Claims set forth in the Distributor Agreement, such Attorney may participate fully in both the Contingency Fee Fund and the Common Benefit Fund, without any reduction imposed by the Fee Panel due to the scope of the authorization, so long as the Participating Subdivision fully releases all Released Claims against Released Entities.
10. Attorneys applying to the Attorney Fee Fund knowingly and expressly agree to be bound by the decisions of the Fee Panel, subject to the limited appeal rights set forth in this Fee Agreement, and waive the ability to assert the lack of enforceability of the allocation reached through the arbitration procedures outlined herein.
H. Calculation of Amounts Due.
1. The Fee Panel shall be solely responsible for determining the amount of fees to be paid to each Attorney and each Participating Subdivision that applies under this Section II. None of the Released Entities shall have any responsibility, obligation, or liability of any kind whatsoever with respect to how attorneys’ fees are calculated under this Section II, except that the Fee Panel may receive information from the Settling Distributors (a) as to the identity of Participating, Non-Participating, Litigating, Later Litigating, and Non-Litigating Subdivisions; (b) the impact of non-participation by a Litigating Subdivision as is relevant to the Fee Panel’s determination in Section II.C.4; and (c) such other information as Settling Distributors may voluntarily elect to provide.
2. The Fee Panel shall establish procedures for the arbitration process consistent with this Fee Agreement and orders of the MDL Court. Such procedures may DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

include submission of documentary and/or other evidence, interviews with applicants and/or other counsel (including counsel for Settling Distributors) that the Fee Panel deems appropriate, and/or other means of creating a record upon which fee awards will be based.
3. In making determinations under this Fee Agreement, the Fee Panel must apply the eligibility criteria set forth in Section II.G of this Fee Agreement and the criteria set forth in Section II. In addition, the Fee Panel will give consideration in regard to Common Benefit awards to the Johnson factors, as well as the following factors (which factors may be applied and given relative weight in the Fee Panel’s discretion):
a. The Attorney’s contemporaneously recorded time and labor dedicated to Qualifying Representations along with the Attorney’s financial commitment to such Qualifying Representations. Claimed “time” will not be automatically accepted by the Fee Panel but will be critically reviewed and given substantially more weight and consideration if such time was subject to the audit process described in any Pretrial Order(s) governing the collection of common benefit time;
b. The novelty, time, and complexity of the Qualifying
Representations;
c. The skill requisite to perform legal services properly and undesirability of the case;
d. The preclusion of other employment by the Attorney due to time dedicated to Qualifying Representations;
e. The “ common benefit,” if any alleged to have been conferred by the Attorney and whether such common benefit work product by that Attorney was used by others in parallel litigations against Released Entities whether within or outside the MDL, provided that for any Attorney claiming that s/he substantially benefited cases other than those in which s/he entered an appearance as counsel must substantiate such claims by proffering factual support, such as proper supporting affidavits or other documents as determined by the Fee Panel with input from Attorneys for Participating Litigating Subdivisions; f. Any “ common detriment,” as set forth in Section II.C.4. g. Any contingent fee agreements or other Fee Entitlement with Participating Subdivisions, enforcement of which, except for State Back-Stop Agreements, are waived in conjunction with the application, the nature and extent of any work for those Participating Subdivisions, whether such Participating Subdivisions actively litigated and, if so, the nature and procedural history of such case(s);
h. The experience, reputation, and ability of the Attorney; DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

R-16
i. Whether the Attorney’s clients brought Released Claims against Released Entities;
j. The status of discovery in cases primarily handled by the Attorney;
k. The nature of any work by the Attorney on “ bellwether” cases or cases that were similarly active in litigation;
l. Any pressure points successfully asserted by the Attorney in cases against Settling Distributors or any risk for Settling Distributors created by the Attorney in cases against them;
m. Any risk for defendants created by applicants in cases against the Setting Distributors;
n. Successful and unsuccessful motion practice in cases worked on by the Attorney;
o. The date of filing of any cases filed by the Attorney; p. Obtaining consolidation of the litigation in the Attorney’s jurisdiction;
q. The number and population of entities represented by the Attorney and the fees that would have been awarded under extinguished contingent fee arrangements;
r. Whether the Attorney’s clients brought claims against the Settling Distributors;
s. Whether the Attorney has had a leadership role in the litigation, whether in state or federal court;
t. Whether the Attorney has had a leadership role in any negotiations aimed at resolving the litigation;
u. Whether the Attorney’s cases have survived motions to dismiss; v. The extent to which the Attorney contributed to the work product user for the common benefits of opioids litigants, including, without limitation, work on ARCOS data, Prescription Data Monitoring Programs, IQVIA data, depositions, document production and analysis experts, motions, briefs and pleadings, trial preparations, and trials;

litigation both being of less value and potentially resulting a common detriment to the settlement process; and
x. Any other factors that the Fee Panel finds to be appropriate to consider after input from applicants to the Attorney Fee Fund.
4. The Fee Panel shall develop procedures for receiving a single application, which may be updated or amended based on new information (such as participation by additional Litigating Subdivisions) from each Attorney seeking compensation from the Attorney Fee Fund, procedures shall not be inconsistent with this Fee Agreement. Any request for attorneys’ fees not included on the single application or through the updating/amendment process designed by the Fee Panel shall be deemed waived. For purposes of transparency and to permit the Fee Panel to conduct its work, the application from each Attorney shall, at a minimum, require each Attorney to:
a. Identify all Litigating Subdivisions for which s/he is seeking payment from the Attorney Fee Fund;
b. Identify all Subdivisions in both Settling and Non-Settling States with respect to which s/he has a Fee Entitlement with respect to Relevant Claims against Released Entities, and identify all co-counsel in such cases; c. Identify which of those Subdivisions are Participating Subdivisions and which are not;
d. Specify the specific fund or funds within the Attorney Fee Fund from which the Attorney is seeking compensation;
e. Demonstrate his or her eligibility for compensation from the relevant sub funds within the Attorney Fee Fund pursuant to the criteria set forth for the relevant sub fund; and
f. Identify any and all Fee Entitlements from representations of States, Tribal Nations, or other plaintiffs related to Released Claims against Released Entities or in opioids-related matters.
Notwithstanding Sections II.H.4.a-f above, the Panel may consider a supplemental application if the Attorney shows good cause why circumstances exist that will lead to consideration for additional Common Benefit award. Examples would include, but are not limited to, an Attorney having Non-Participating Litigating Subdivision clients that subsequently become Participating Subdivisions, a Bar Date passes that increases participation or the Participation Tier or an Allocation Agreement is reached.
5. With respect to the Common Benefit Fund, the Fee Panel shall (subject to any applicable MDL Court Order):
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
R-18
a. Review the applications of all Attorneys seeking compensation from the Common Benefit Fund, including determining eligibility for each Attorney as set forth in Section II.G.
b. Reduce, on an annual basis, the Distributor’s payment obligations, as set forth in Section II.C.6. The Panel shall inform the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC of all such amounts and adjust the Settling Distributors’ payment obligations accordingly.
c. Using criteria set forth in Sections II.C and II.G, allocate amounts from the Common Benefit Fund to eligible Attorneys, including payment amounts for each Payment Year. In making such allocations (regardless of the Participation Tier achieved), the Panel shall apply the principles set forth in Section II.C.4 and shall allocate any reduction in the payments of Settling Distributors specified in Section II.C.6 to the amounts paid to Attorneys with a Fee Entitlement to Litigating Subdivisions that are not Participating Subdivisions.
6. With respect to the Contingency Fee Fund, the Fee Panel shall:
a. Review the applications of all Attorneys seeking compensation from the Litigating Subdivision Fee Fund, including determining eligibility for each Attorney as set forth in Section II.G.
b. Apply the Mathematical Model in Exhibit A.
c. Use such allocations to reduce payments, on an annual basis, the payment obligations of the Settling Distributors to the Attorney Fee Fund as set forth in Section II.D.4, and distributions therefrom, and inform the Settling Distributors and MDL PEC of all such adjustments.
7. To the extent that there is a dispute about the calculations of the Fee Panel related to the amounts that Settling Distributors are required to pay (including application of any reductions or offsets under this Fee Agreement), such disputes shall be presented to the Fee Panel and any disputed funds be paid into/held in escrow. The Fee Panel shall resolve such disputes expeditiously, with either Party having the right to seek review from the MDL Court.
8. For purposes of determination of fee or cost awards, allocations, reductions and possible reversions under this Fee Agreement, unless specified otherwise a Subdivision will be considered a Non-Participating Subdivision if it is not a Participating Subdivision as of the deadline for the application for the fee or cost award at issue (or, if the determination does not involve a specific application, the date on which the record for such determination closes).
9. In the event that the Fee Panel, through the use of the Mathematical Model set forth in Exhibit A, allocates funds from the Contingency Fee Fund for an Attorney based on a Qualifying Representation of a Participating Litigating Subdivision or allocates cost to such Participating Litigating Subdivision and that Subdivision is in a DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

I. Miscellaneous.
1. The costs associated with the Fee Panel prior to the Effective Date of this Fee Agreement shall be funded by Settling Distributors. The Fee Panel shall charge an hourly rate that has been previously approved by a federal or state court and shall provide a budget and a cap for such work prior to the Effective Date, which shall be approved by Settling Distributors and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Settling Distributors shall receive a refund for any such payment of pre-Effective Date costs from interest that accrues on the monies in the Attorney Fee Fund (including interest that accrues during such time as the Attorney Fee Fund monies are in escrow prior to the Effective Date of the Distributor Agreement), up to the amount of such costs. Post- Effective Date, the cost of the Fee Panel shall be charged against the applicable Fee Fund based on allocation by the Fee Panel and shall not be otherwise funded by Settling Distributors. The costs associated with the Cost and Expense Fund Administrator shall be paid from funds in the MDL Expense Fund and the Litigating Subdivision Cost Fund and shall not be otherwise funded by Settling Distributors.
2. The MDL PEC will seek, and the Attorneys General for Settling States and the Settling Distributors will not oppose, a Common Benefit Fee Order requiring an assessment of 7.5% on the gross recovery (by judgment or settlement) of any Non- Participating Subdivision that is subject to the federal court jurisdiction, represented by a MDL PEC firm, represented by any Attorney receiving fees from the Common Benefit Fund, represented by any Attorney that signed a Participation Agreement or paid in a case otherwise under the jurisdiction of the MDL Court.
3. The MDL PEC shall provide to Settling Distributors information they have that identifies Attorneys who represent Litigating Subdivisions who are not Participating Subdivisions and who have an obligation to pay a common benefit assessment, either due to the MDL Court’s orders or to having signed a Participation Agreement.
4. The MDL PEC shall retain ethics counsel of its choice to provide an opinion that addresses the compliance of its ethical obligations, as it relates to the Distributor Agreement. Such opinion shall address the issue of the potential conflict of interest for an Attorney that had represented a Participating Subdivision also representing a Later Litigating Subdivision as defined in the Distributor Agreement. This Section II.I shall be enforceable to the extent permitted by the equivalent to Rules 1.16 and 5.6 of the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct in the relevant jurisdictions. The opinion shall be provided to the Settling Distributors as soon as it is completed and, in any event, prior to July 31, 2021 and shall be disseminated to counsel eligible to apply to the Attorney Fee Fund within 30 days of the announcement of the Distributor Agreement.
The MDL PEC represents that it will comply with this opinion until the Reference Date and thereafter if the Distributor Agreement proceeds. The cost of such expert work done DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21

prior to the Effective Date of the Distributor Agreement shall be funded by Settling Distributors.
5. Participating Subdivisions agree to instruct their counsel to treat information, work product and expert materials as secret under Rule 1.6 of the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct. Accordingly, an Attorney shall not share information or work product with, or experts or materials to, non-participants (other than the Attorney’s own current clients or their lawyers, consultants, experts or other representatives or agents). However, nothing herein shall prevent MDL Leadership or PEC Counsel from fulfilling their obligations in any MDL and the MDL Court Order.
III. Miscellaneous.
A. Termination. If the Distributor Agreement does not proceed past the Reference Date, whether because the Settling Distributors do not determine to proceed or for any other reason, this Fee Agreement shall be null and void, Settling Distributors shall have no obligation to make any payments under this Fee Agreement, and the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC shall take such steps as are necessary to restore the status quo ante.
B. MDL Court Consideration. This Fee Agreement shall be attached as an exhibit to the Distributor Agreement. This Fee Agreement shall also be submitted jointly by the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC to the MDL Court for approval pursuant to the motion that shall be attached, prior to the Preliminary Agreement Date of the Distributor Agreement, to this Fee Agreement as Exhibit B.
1. In the event that the MDL Court, through an order, makes any change to the amounts potentially to be paid by Settling Distributors under this Fee Agreement, makes any change to the Fee Panel’s consideration of the factors set forth in Section II.C.4, or any other material change to the draft Order attached as part of Exhibit B or the terms of this Fee Agreement, the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC shall meet and confer concerning such changes.
2. If the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC are unable to reach agreement and revisions to this Fee Agreement in the event discussed in Section III.B.1, this Fee Agreement shall be null and void, Settling Distributors shall have no obligation to make any payments under this Fee Agreement, and the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC shall take such steps as are necessary to restore the status quo ante.
C. Amendment. Once the MDL Court has entered an order implementing this Fee Agreement, this Fee Agreement can only be amended by (1) written agreement of the Settling Distributors and the MDL PEC and (2) approval by the MDL Court.
D. Jurisdiction and Enforcement. The MDL Court shall have exclusive and ongoing jurisdiction over the enforcement and implementation of this Fee Agreement as set forth herein.

Description of Mathematical Model for the Allocation of the Contingency Fee Funds Distributor Settlement Agreement and Janssen Settlement Agreement This document describes the Mathematical Model for allocation of the Contingency Fee Fund described in Exhibit R (Agreement of Attorney’s Fees, Expenses and Costs) to the Distributor Settlement Agreement and the Janssen Settlement Agreement, respectively.18 Awards of fees from the Contingency Fee Funds shall be available to Attorneys with Qualifying Representations of Participating Litigating Subdivisions eligible to receive an allocation under the corresponding agreements.19 A Fee Panel shall oversee the application of the Model and resolve any questions or disputes concerning the eligibility of a counsel to participate. The Panel is empowered to hear disputes concerning and ensure the accuracy of the mathematical calculations.
In general terms, allocation of the Contingency Fee Fund shall be made by (1) determining the amount of the Settlement Fund that is attributable to each Litigating Subdivision; (2) making certain adjustments to these amounts based on when the Subdivision filed suit and the terms of the applicable fee contract; and (3) dividing the Contingency Fee Fund proportionately among counsel for each Participating Litigating Subdivision based on the amounts calculated in subpart 2.
Each Settling Defendant is responsible only for its own share of payments. 20 In other words, to collect a fee award from the Contingency Fee Fund against a Settling Defendant, the Participating Litigating Subdivision must have named the Settling Defendant in its lawsuit. The total amount of the Contingency Fee Fund in the Distributor Settlement Agreement is $516,923,077. 21 Amerisource’s share is $160,246,153.97 (31.0%), Cardinal’s share is $159,729,230.89 (30.9%), and McKesson’s share is $196,947,692.46 (38.1%). The total amount of the Contingency Fee Fund in the Janssen Settlement Agreement is $123,076,923.22 More specifically, allocation of each Settling Defendant’s share of the corresponding Contingency Fee Fund shall be made according to the following steps. These steps must be performed separately for each Settlement Agreement, and each Defendant is responsible for paying only its share of the Contingency Fee Fund. These calculations are made only for purpose of determining the percentage share of the Contingency Fee Fund that Attorneys for each Participating Litigating Subdivision should receive, not for determining the dollar amount each Subdivision will receive. 18 See Distributor Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.B.3; Janssen Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.B.3. 19 Distributor Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.B.3; Janssen Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.B.3 20 Distributor Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.A.5. 21 Distributor Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.D.1. 22 Janssen Settlement Agreement, Exhibit R § II.D.1.

(1) For each Settling State, attribute 50% of the settlement funds for that State to its Subdivisions according to the Subdivision Allocation Percentage in Exhibit G to the Distributor Settlement Agreement or Janssen Settlement Agreement, as appropriate.
Illustrative example for the Distributor Agreement:
Assume that State A is allocated 1.00000% of the $18,554,013,691.11 Restitution/Abatement amount [see Exhibit M of the Agreement]. 50% of the 1% share allocated to State A is $92,770,068.46. Assume that, per Exhibit G of the Agreement, the Subdivision Allocation Percentage for City B in State A is 1.00000000%. For purposes of determining its counsel’s share of the Contingency Fee Fund, City B is attributed 1.00000000% of $92,770,068.46, or $927,700.68.
(2) Adjust the amounts in paragraph 1 as follows:
a. Upward Adjustment for Early Filers. Increase the amount calculated in paragraph 1 above by 10% for any Litigating Subdivision that named the defendant(s) in a suit before December 5, 2017, the date the National Prescription Opiate Litigation MDL was formed. This adjustment must be done individually for each defendant.
If the Litigating Subdivision did not name a Settling Defendant in a suit before January 1, 2021, then fees from the Contingency Fee Fund for that defendant will not be awarded to Attorneys with otherwise Qualifying Representations of that Participating Litigating Subdivision.
Illustrative Example:
Assume City C is attributed $1,000,000 under paragraph 1 above.
If City C named the defendant(s) before 12/5/2017, the attributed amount would be adjusted to $1,100,000.
b. Determine Amount Due under Contingency Fee Contract . Determine the amount that would be due to Attorneys with Qualifying Representations of each Participating Litigating Subdivision under the terms of the applicable fee contract if the Participating Litigating Subdivision were to receive the amount calculated in paragraph 2.a. This amount can be referred to as the Contingency Fee Assumption.
Illustrative Example:
Continuing the example given in paragraph 2.a, if Attorneys have a 20% contingency fee contract with City C for the relevant litigation, the amount calculated in this step would be 20% of $1,100,000, or $220,000.

In the next step, the Contingency Fee Assumption is used to determine the percentage share of the Contingency Fee Fund due to Attorneys for each Participating Litigating Subdivision.
(3) Divide the Contingency Fee Fund proportionately among Attorneys for each Participating Litigating Subdivision in two ways:
a. National Fee Pool Calculation. Determine each Litigating Subdivision’s percentage share of all amounts due under contingency fee contracts nationwide by dividing the Contingency Fee Assumption calculated for each Subdivision in paragraph 2.b by the sum of all Contingency Fee Assumptions. Then multiply that percentage by the Contingency Fee Fund to figure each Subdivision’s dollar share of the Contingency Fee Fund (but only for Settling Defendants the Subdivision timely named in a lawsuit).23
Illustrative example for Distributor Settlement Agreement:
$220,000 [from para. 2.b] ÷ $1,800,000,000 [total amount owed under contingency fee contracts nationwide] = 0.012222%24 0.012222% * $516,923,077.32 [Contingency Fee Fund] =
$63,179.49
b. Separate State Fee Pools Calculation. Determine each Litigating Subdivision’s percentage share of all amounts due under contingency fee contracts statewide by dividing the Contingency Fee Assumption calculated for each Subdivision in paragraph 2.b by the sum of all Contingency Fee Assumptions in the same State.
Then multiply that percentage by the portion of the Contingency Fee Fund that corresponds to that State’s Overall Allocation Percentage, shown in Exhibit F of the relevant Settlement Agreement, to figure each Subdivision’s dollar share of the Contingency Fee Fund (but only for Settling Defendants the Subdivision timely named in a lawsuit).
Illustrative example for Distributor Settlement Agreement:
1% * $516,923,077.32 = $5,169,230.77 [amount of the
Contingency Fee Fund corresponding to State A]
23 Because a few Litigating Subdivisions named only one or two of the Distributors in a lawsuit before January 1, 2021, each Subdivision’s share of the Contingency Fee Fund is slightly different for each distributor. Therefore, under the Distributor Settlement Agreement, the calculations described in this step need to be made separately for each Settling Defendant. It is shown in a single calculation here for ease of illustration only. 24 In this example, $1.8 billion is the amount theoretically owed under all contingency fee contracts for litigation against distributors as calculated in paragraph 2.b. This amount is illustrative only; the actual amount will not be known until all litigating subdivisions are identified and the terms of all of their contingency fee contracts are collected.

R-25
Assume a total of $17,600,000 is owed under contingency fee contracts for State A.
$220,000 [from para. 2.b] ÷ $17,600,000 = 1.25%
1.25% * $5,169,230.77 = $64,615.38
The award of fees to Attorneys with Qualifying Representations of Participating Litigating Subdivisions will be the average of the final amounts calculated in paragraphs 3.a and 3.b above.25
Paragraph 3.a represents allocation based on a proportional share of a National Fee Pool, while paragraph 3.b represents allocation based on a proportional share of the Separate State Fee Pools. In other words, for the National Fee Pool described above in paragraph
3.a, the contingency fee contract rate is compared to all other contingency fee contract rates in the nation. For the Separate State Fee Pools described above in paragraph 3.b, the contingency fee contract terms are compared to the other contingency fee contract terms in that same State. The National Fee Pool and the Separate State Fee Pools are given equal weighting. This is illustrated below.
Using the first methodology, Attorneys for two Subdivisions in different States with the same amount calculated under paragraph 2.b would be assigned the same amount under paragraph 3.a. Using the second methodology, Attorneys for the same two Subdivisions would be assigned different amounts under paragraph 3.b because they are in different States. Specifically, the Subdivision in the State with a smaller proportion of Participating 25 The model also enforces a maximum fee award of 20% of the amount calculated in 2.b. This rule is designed to prevent windfalls by addressing over-allocation in a small number of states with relatively few Litigating Subdivisions. An estimated 97% of Qualifying Representations are not impacted this rule. The description in this document of the Mathematical Model is by necessity an abstraction; the precise contours of the calculations are defined in the model itself.

Agreement on the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund
1. Creation of a State Outside Counsel Fee Fund. The Settling Distributors and the Settling States agree to the creation of a state outside counsel fee fund to pay reasonable attorneys’ fees of Settling States which have retained outside counsel in connection with litigation against the Settling Distributors (such fund, the “State Outside Counsel Fee Fund”).
2. State Outside Counsel Fee Fund Administration. The State Outside Counsel Fee Fund shall be administered separately from the Common Benefit Fund, the Contingency Fee Fund, the State Cost Fund, and the MDL Expense Fund. A committee of Attorneys General shall oversee the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund (the “Fee Fund Committee”). The Fee Fund Committee shall initially consist of the following States: (a) Delaware; (b) Florida; (c) Georgia; (d) Indiana; (e) Michigan; (f) Ohio; and (g) Rhode Island. The Fee Fund Committee shall select a settlement fund administrator, who may or may not be different from the Settlement Fund Administrator (the “Fee Fund Administrator”) and who shall administer the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund according to the guidelines and directives of the Fee Fund Committee.
3. State Outside Counsel Fee Eligibility. To receive any amount from the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund, an outside counsel to a Settling State must have filed and maintained an action in the name of a Settling State or its Attorney General against a Settling Distributor in a state or federal court as of June 1, 2021. No Settling State shall receive funds from both the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund and the Additional Restitution Amount as set forth in Section IX.
4. State Outside Counsel Fee Fund Amount. The Settling Distributors shall pay funds into the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund according to the schedule set forth below, subject to any suspensions, offsets, reductions, or adjustments provided for in the Agreement or described below:
Payment Year 1 Payment Date $136,044,379
Payment Year 2 Payment Date $129,230,769
Payment Year 3 Payment Date $17,417,160
5. State Outside Counsel Fee Fund Availability and Calculation of Amount. a. The State Outside Counsel Fee Fund shall be available to compensate private outside counsel for Settling State Attorneys General for approved fees arising out of representation of the Settling State pursuant to the schedule developed by the Fee Fund Committee and provided to the Settling Distributors. b. Fees shall be calculated by adding two components: (a) a fixed amount consisting of fifty percent (50%) of the amount allocated to a Settling State pursuant to Exhibit F multiplied by 4.5%; and (b) a proportional percentage of the remaining fee due under that Settling State’s contract assuming that fifty DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
S-2
percent (50%) of the Settling State’s recovery is allocable to a Settling State (rather than allocable to the Settling State’s Participating Subdivisions) so that the fees of all Settling States (minus the fixed amount that would have been allocated to any Non-Settling States had they become Settling States) exhausts the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund. The proportional share percentage will be the same for each Settling State included in the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund. All amounts paid will be less any costs or fees of the Fee Fund Administrator.
6. Payment by the Fee Fund Administrator.
a. If a Settling State’s outside counsel agrees that the amount calculated in Paragraph 5 above either satisfies in full or exceeds the amounts owed to all such Settling State’s outside counsel, then upon written notice waiving all entitlement to any additional fee, the Fee Fund Administrator shall pay that Settling State’s outside counsel the amount that satisfies the Settling State’s obligation in full and, in no event more than (i) such obligation or (ii) the amount pursuant to the calculation and any schedule created by the Fee Fund Committee.
b. If a Settling State’s outside counsel does not agree that the amount calculated in Paragraph 5 above either satisfies in full or exceeds the amounts owed by the Settling State, then the Settling State’s share shall be placed in an interest- bearing escrow account (less reasonable expenses of the Fee Fund Administrator) and held unless and until the Settling State and its outside counsel agree in a signed writing to a resolution of the amount outstanding or there is a final judgment entered that is no longer appealable. c. Upon being provided a signed, written agreement or the final non-appealable judgment, the Fee Fund Administrator shall release monies from the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund in either the amount held by the Fee Fund Administrator, if the amount of the agreement or judgment is equal to or more than the amount held, or the amount indicated in the agreement or in the final judgment, if the amount in the agreement or judgment is less than the amount held.
d. Nothing herein, including the amounts listed in paragraph 5 above, shall prevent a Settling State from arguing in any proceeding with its outside counsel that (i) its recovery was less than fifty percent (50%) of the recovery in the Settlement Agreement down to and including fifteen percent (15%) of the total recovery; (ii) any payment should be discounted by an appropriate discount rate commensurate to the risk of the Settlement Agreement and the timeline that the Settling State is receiving its payments; (iii) the settlement amount should be lower because the amount a Settling State receives was reduced because such Settling State’s outside counsel failed to obtain joinder from a Settling State’s Subdivision(s) that the outside counsel also DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
S-3
represented; or (iv) any limitation placed by the Settling Distributors bars payment of a higher fee to outside counsel.
e. In the event the amount due to the Settling State’s outside counsel from an escrow account is less than the total amount of funds escrowed on the account of the Settling State, the balance shall be paid to the Settling State. In no event, other than a State becoming a Non-Settling State, shall funds revert to a Settling Distributor.
f. Amounts owed by Settling Distributors to the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund shall be reduced and/or credited to Settling Distributors by amounts allocated on the above-mentioned schedule for outside counsel in Non-Settling States.
7. Reversion or Reduction of Amounts owed to Non-Settling States. Amounts owed by Settling Distributors to the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund shall be reduced proportionally across payments owed by the Settling Distributors by amounts allocated to the fixed amount on the below schedule for outside counsel in the event that a listed State becomes a Non-Settling State. In the event the Fee Fund Administrator receives part or all of the fixed amount due to a Non-Settling State from a Settling Distributor, the Fee Fund Administrator shall return the amount allocable to that Non-Settling State’s fixed amount to the Settling Distributor.

Agreement on the State Cost Fund Administration
1. Creation of a State Cost Fund. The Settling Distributors and the Settling States agree to the creation of a state cost fund to pay litigation costs and expenses associated with litigation and investigation related to the opioid litigation (such fund, the “State Cost Fund”).
The State Cost Fund shall be administered separately from the Common Benefit Fund, the Contingency Fee Fund, the State Counsel Fee Fund, and the MDL Expense Fund.
2. State Cost Fund Amount and to Whom Owed. On the Payment Date of Payment Year 1, the Settling Distributors shall pay into the State Cost Fund $56,538,461.00 (the “State Cost Fund Amount”). No funds may be released from the State Cost Fund to Non-Settling States.
3. State Cost Fund Committee. A committee of Attorneys General or their designated representatives (such committee, the “State Cost Fund Committee”) shall oversee the State Cost Fund. The committee shall initially consist of the following States: (a) Delaware; (b) Florida; (c) Georgia; (d) New York; (e) North Carolina; (f) Ohio; (g) Tennessee; and (h) Texas.
The Attorneys General may by majority vote add or change the composition of the State Cost Fund Committee, including replacing any above State, if that State is not a Settling State.
4. State Cost Fund Administrator. The State Cost Fund Committee shall select an administrator (the “State Cost Fund Administrator”). The State Cost Fund Administrator may or may not be different from the Settlement Fund Administrator. The State Cost Fund Administrator shall administer the State Cost Fund and direct payments to Settling States.
5. State Cost Fund Guidelines. Monies in the State Cost Fund shall be released without any delay to reimburse Settling States for documented costs incurred or paid in connection with litigation and investigation related to the opioid litigation. In allocating the State Cost Fund, no funds shall be allocated for costs incurred after July 21, 2021. The State Cost Fund Committee shall establish guidelines for the submission and approval of expenses eligible for reimbursement from the State Cost Fund. The State Cost Fund Administrator shall, in accordance with such guidelines, receive from Settling States records sufficient to demonstrate the incurrence and payment of each expense attributable to litigation or investigation related to the opioid litigation, including any outstanding National Association of Attorneys General grant.
6. State Cost Fund Payment Priorities and Residual. To the extent the aggregate eligible submissions of costs and expenses from Settling States exceed the State Cost Fund Amount, payments to Settling States shall be paid in the order described in this section until the State Cost Fund is exhausted. If the State Cost Fund is unable to fully pay costs at any of the following levels, then Settling States with costs at that level shall be paid on a proportional basis.
All expenses with a lesser priority from the level where the State Cost Fund is exhausted will not be reimbursed from the State Cost Fund. Costs shall be paid in the following order of priority:
DISTRIBUTORS’ 10.22.21
EXHIBIT UPDATES
T-2
(a) the reasonable costs of the State Cost Fund Administrator, if any; (b) repayment of the National Association of Attorneys General grants connected to opioid litigation; (c) costs incurred or paid by outside counsel for a Settling State litigating against the Settling Distributors apart from any fee owed; (d) litigation-related costs attributable to the Settling Distributors incurred or paid by a Settling State litigating against the Settling Distributors; and (e) pre-suit investigation-related costs attributable to the Settling Distributors incurred or paid by either a Settling State outside counsel (not including any amount of fees or any costs which have already been reimbursed pursuant to clause (c), above) or a Settling State investigating the Settling Distributors. If the State Cost Fund has additional monies after payment of the State Cost Fund Administrator’s and all Settling States’ submitted costs, then the remaining funds will be provided to the National Association of Attorneys General to be placed in the Financial Services Fund for the purpose of funding grants for consumer protection- or healthcare-related enforcement or training activities. In determining what costs are attributable to the Settling Distributors, the State Fund Committee shall develop a guideline that ensures that all Settling States are treated equitably.

JANSSEN SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
This settlement agreement dated as of July 21, 2021 (the “Agreement”) sets forth the terms of settlement between and among the Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and Janssen (as those terms are defined below). Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections II and VIII, this Agreement will be binding on the Settling States, Janssen, and Participating Subdivisions. This Agreement will then be filed as part of Consent Judgments in the respective courts of each of the Settling States, pursuant to the terms set forth in Section VIII.
I. Definitions
Unless otherwise specified, the following definitions apply:
1. “Abatement Accounts Fund” means a component of the Settlement Fund described in subsection VI.E.
2. “Additional Restitution Amount” means the amount available to Settling States listed in Exhibit N of $67,307,692.
3. “Agreement” means this agreement as set forth above, inclusive of all exhibits.
4. “Alleged Harms” means the alleged past, present, and future financial, societal, and related expenditures arising out of the alleged misuse and abuse of opioid products, non-exclusive examples of which are described in the documents listed on Exhibit A, that have allegedly arisen as a result of the physical and bodily injuries sustained by individuals suffering from opioid-related addiction, abuse, death, and other related diseases and disorders, and that have allegedly been caused by Janssen.
5. “Allocation Statute” means a state law that governs allocation, distribution, and/or use of some or all of the Settlement Fund amounts allocated to that State and/or its Subdivisions. In addition to modifying the allocation, as set forth in subsection VI.D.2, an Allocation Statute may, without limitation, contain a Statutory Trust, further restrict expenditure of funds, form an advisory committee, establish oversight and reporting requirements, or address other default provisions and other matters related to the funds. An Allocation Statute is not required to address all three (3) types of funds comprising the Settlement Fund or all default provisions.
6. “Annual Payment” means the total amount payable to the Settlement Fund by Janssen on the Payment Date each year in 2023 and onward, as calculated by the Settlement Fund Administrator pursuant to Section V. For the avoidance of doubt, this term does not include the Additional Restitution Amount or amounts paid pursuant to Section XI.
7. “Appropriate Official” means the official defined in subsection XIII.E. 2 revised July 30, 2021
8. “Attorney Fee Fund” means an account consisting of funds allocated to pay attorneys’ fees and costs pursuant to the agreement on attorneys’ fees and costs attached as Exhibit R.
9. “Bar” means either (1) a ruling by the highest court of the State or the intermediate court of appeals when not subject to further review by the highest court of the State in a State with a single intermediate court of appeals setting forth the general principle that no Subdivisions or Special Districts in the State may maintain Released Claims against Released Entities, whether on the ground of the Agreement (or the release in it) or otherwise; (2) a law barring Subdivisions and Special Districts in the State from maintaining or asserting Released Claims against Released Entities (either through a direct bar or through a grant of authority to release claims and that authority is exercised in full); or (3) a Settlement Class Resolution in the State with full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, a law or ruling that is conditioned or predicated upon payment by a Released Entity (apart from payments by Janssen incurred under the Agreement) shall not constitute a Bar.

If applicable state law requires that opt-out rights be afforded to members of the class, a class action resolution otherwise meeting the foregoing requirements shall qualify as a Settlement Class Resolution unless Subdivisions collectively representing more than 1% of the total population of all of that State’s Subdivisions listed in Exhibit G opt out. In seeking certification of any Settlement Class, the applicable State and Participating Subdivisions shall make clear that certification is sought solely for settlement purposes and shall have no applicability beyond approval of the settlement for which certification is sought.

Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed by subsection VI.D.3 (or upon the effectiveness of an amendment to any State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, Statutory Trust, or voluntary redistribution allowed by subsection VI.D.3) that addresses allocation from the Subdivision Fund.

Following the notice period set forth in subsection II.A above, Janssen shall determine on or before the Preliminary Agreement Date whether, in its sole discretion, enough States have agreed to become Settling States to proceed with notice to Subdivisions as set forth in Section VII below. If Janssen determines that this condition has been satisfied, and that notice to the Litigating Subdivisions should proceed, it will so notify the Settling States by providing notice to the Enforcement Committee and Settlement Fund Administrator on the Preliminary Agreement Date. If Janssen determines that this condition has not been satisfied, it will so 14 revised July 30, 2021
notify the Settling States by providing notice to the Enforcement Committee and Settlement Fund Administrator, and this Agreement will have no further effect and all releases and other commitments or obligations contained herein will be void.

The releases provided for in the Agreement are intended by the Parties to be broad and shall be interpreted so as to give the Released Entities the broadest possible bar against any liability relating in any way to Released Claims and extend to the full extent of the power of each Settling State and its Attorney General to release claims. The Release shall be a complete bar to any Released Claim.
B. Claim Over and Non-Party Settlement.
1. Statement of Intent. It is the intent of the Parties that:

2. Contribution/Indemnity Prohibited. No Released Entity shall seek to recover for amounts paid under this Agreement based on indemnification, contribution, or any other theory from a manufacturer, pharmacy, hospital, pharmacy benefit manager, health insurer, third-party vendor, trade association, distributor, or health care practitioner, provided that a Released Entity shall be relieved of this prohibition with respect to any entity that asserts a Claim-Over against it. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit a Released Entity from recovering amounts owed pursuant to insurance contracts.
3. Non-Party Settlement. To the extent that, on or after the Reference Date, any Releasor enters into a Non-Party Settlement, including in any bankruptcy case or through any plan of reorganization (whether individually or as a class of creditors), the Releasor will include (or in the case of a Non-Party Settlement made in connection with a bankruptcy case, will cause the debtor to include), unless prohibited from doing so under applicable law, in the Non-Party Settlement a prohibition on contribution or indemnity of any kind substantially equivalent to that required from Janssen in subsection IV.B.2, or a release from such Non- Released Entity in favor of the Released Entities (in a form equivalent to the releases contained in this Agreement) of any Claim-Over. The obligation to obtain the prohibition and/or release required by this subsection is a material term of this Agreement.
4. Claim-Over. In the event that any Releasor obtains a judgment with respect to Non-Party Covered Conduct against a Non-Released Entity that does not contain a prohibition like that in subsection IV.B.3, or any Releasor files a Non-Party Covered Conduct Claim against a non-Released Entity in bankruptcy or a Releasor is prevented for any reason from obtaining a prohibition/release in a Non-Party Settlement as provided in subsection IV.B.3, and such Non-Released Entity asserts a Claim-Over against a Released Entity, that Releasor and Janssen shall take the following actions to ensure that the Released Entities do not pay more with respect to Covered Conduct to Releasors or to Non-Released Entities than the amounts owed under this Settlement Agreement by Janssen:
a. Janssen shall notify that Releasor of the Claim-Over within sixty (60) days of the assertion of the Claim-Over or sixty (60) days of the Effective Date of this Settlement Agreement, whichever is later;
b. Janssen and that Releasor shall meet and confer concerning the means to hold Released Entities harmless and ensure that it is not required to pay 16 revised July 30, 2021
more with respect to Covered Conduct than the amounts owed by Janssen under this Settlement Agreement;
c. That Releasor and Janssen shall take steps sufficient and permissible under the law of the State of the Releasor to hold Released Entities harmless from the Claim-Over and ensure Released Entities are not required to pay more with respect to Covered Conduct than the amounts owed by Janssen under this Settlement Agreement. Such steps may include, where permissible:
(1) Filing of motions to dismiss or such other appropriate motion by Janssen or Released Entities, and supported by Releasors, in response to any claim filed in litigation or arbitration; (2) Reduction of that Releasor’s Claim and any judgment it has obtained or may obtain against such Non-Released Entity by whatever amount or percentage is necessary to extinguish such Claim-Over under applicable law, up to the amount that Releasor has obtained, may obtain, or has authority to control from such Non-Released Entity;
(3) Placement into escrow of funds paid by the Non-Released Entities such that those funds are available to satisfy the Claim-Over; (4) Return of monies paid by Janssen to that Releasor under this Settlement Agreement to permit satisfaction of a judgment against or settlement with the Non-Released Entity to satisfy the Claim- Over;
(5) Payment of monies to Janssen by that Releasor to ensure it is held harmless from such Claim-Over, up to the amount that Releasor has obtained, may obtain, or has authority to control from such Non-Released Entity;
(6) Credit to Janssen under this Settlement Agreement to reduce the overall amounts to be paid under the Settlement Agreement such that it is held harmless from the Claim-Over; and
(7) Such other actions as that Releasor and Janssen may devise to hold Janssen harmless from the Claim Over.
d. The actions of that Releasor and Janssen taken pursuant to paragraph (c) must, in combination, ensure Janssen is not required to pay more with respect to Covered Conduct than the amounts owed by Janssen under this Settlement Agreement.
e. In the event of any dispute over the sufficiency of the actions taken pursuant to paragraph (c), that Releasor and Janssen may seek review by 17 revised July 30, 2021
the National Arbitration Panel, provided that, if the parties agree, such dispute may be heard by the state court where the relevant Consent Judgment was filed. The National Arbitration Panel shall have authority to require Releasors to implement a remedy that includes one or more of the actions specified in paragraph (c) sufficient to hold Released Entities fully harmless. In the event that the panel’s actions do not result in Released Entities being held fully harmless, Janssen shall have a claim for breach of this Settlement Agreement by Releasors, with the remedy being payment of sufficient funds to hold Janssen harmless from the Claim-Over. For the avoidance of doubt, the prior sentence does not limit or eliminate any other remedy that Janssen may have.
5. To the extent that the Claim-Over is based on a contractual indemnity, the obligations under subsection IV.B.4 shall extend solely to a Non-Party Covered Conduct Claim against a pharmacy, clinic, hospital or other purchaser or dispenser of Products, a manufacturer that sold Products, a consultant, and/or a pharmacy benefit manager or other third-party payor. Janssen shall notify the Settling States, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event that any of these types of Non-Released Entities asserts a Claim-Over arising out of contractual indemnity against it.
C. General Release. In connection with the releases provided for in the Agreement, each Settling State (for itself and its Releasors) and Participating Subdivision expressly waives, releases, and forever discharges any and all provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United States or other jurisdiction, or principle of common law, which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to § 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads:
General Release; extent. A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
A Releasor may thereafter discover facts other than or different from those which it knows, believes, or assumes to be true with respect to the Released Claims, but each Settling State (for itself and its Releasors) and Participating Subdivision hereby expressly waives and fully, finally, and forever settles, releases, and discharges, upon the Effective Date, any and all Released Claims that may exist as of such date but which Releasors do not know or suspect to exist, whether through ignorance, oversight, error, negligence or through no fault whatsoever, and which, if known, would materially affect the Settling States’ decision to enter into the Agreement or the Participating Subdivisions’ decision to participate in the Agreement.
D. Res Judicata. Nothing in the Agreement shall be deemed to reduce the scope of the res judicata or claim preclusive effect that the settlement memorialized in the Agreement, 18 revised July 30, 2021
and/or any Consent Judgment or other judgment entered on the Agreement, gives rise to under applicable law.
E. Representation and Warranty. The signatories hereto on behalf of their respective Settling States and its Participating Subdivisions expressly represent and warrant that they will obtain on or before the Effective Date (or have obtained) the authority to settle and release, to the maximum extent of the State’s power, all Released Claims of (1) their respective Settling States; (2) all past and present executive departments, state agencies, divisions, boards, commissions and instrumentalities with the regulatory authority to enforce state and federal controlled substances acts; (3) any of their respective Settling State’s past and present executive departments, agencies, divisions, boards, commissions and instrumentalities that have the authority to bring Claims related to Covered Conduct seeking money (including abatement and/or remediation) or revocation of a pharmaceutical distribution license; and (4) any Participating Subdivisions. For the purposes of clause (3) above, executive departments, agencies, divisions, boards, commissions, and instrumentalities are those that are under the executive authority or direct control of the State’s Governor. Also, for the purposes of clause (3), a release from a State’s Governor is sufficient to demonstrate that the appropriate releases have been obtained.
F. Effectiveness. The releases set forth in the Agreement shall not be impacted in any way by any dispute that exists, has existed, or may later exist between or among the Releasors.
Nor shall such releases be impacted in any way by any current or future law, regulation, ordinance, or court or agency order limiting, seizing, or controlling the distribution or use of the Settlement Fund or any portion thereof, or by the enactment of future laws, or by any seizure of the Settlement Fund or any portion thereof.
G. Cooperation. Releasors (i) will not encourage any person or entity to bring or maintain any Released Claim against any Released Entity and (ii) will reasonably cooperate with and not oppose any effort by a Released Entity to secure the prompt dismissal of any and all Released Claims.
H. Non-Released Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the definition of Released Claims, the Agreement does not waive, release or limit any criminal liability, Claims for any outstanding liability under any tax or securities law, Claims against parties who are not Released Entities, Claims by private individuals and any claims arising under the Agreement for enforcement of the Agreement.
V. Monetary Relief and Payments
A. Structure of Payments
1. All payments under this Section V shall be made into the Settlement Fund, except that where specified, they shall be made into the Settlement Fund Escrow. The Settlement Fund shall be allocated and used only as specified in Section VI.
2. Janssen shall pay into the Settlement Fund the sum of Four Billion, Five Hundred Thirty-Four Million, Six Hundred Fifteen Thousand, Three Hundred Eighty-Five 19 revised July 30, 2021
Dollars ($4,534,615,385) minus (1) the offsets and credits specified in subsection V.C below, (2) any unearned incentive payments under subsection V.E below, and (3) any adjustments under Section IX below.
3. The payments to the Settlement Fund shall be divided into base and incentive payments as provided in subsections V.D and V.E below.
B. Payment Process
1. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Janssen shall make two Initial Year Payments and nine (9) Annual Payments. The Initial Year Payments will consist of base payments. The first Annual Payment shall consist of incentive payments and subsequent Annual Payments shall each consist of base and incentive payments. The amount of all Initial Year Payments and Annual Payments shall be determined by the Settlement Fund Administrator applying Section V and Exhibit M. The Payment Date for the first Initial Year Payment shall be no later than ninety (90) days after the Effective Date. The Payment Date for the second Initial Year Payment shall be no later than July 15, 2022. The Payment Date for the first Annual Payment shall be no later than one year and sixty days following the Effective Date; the Payment Date for the second Annual Payment shall be no later than two years and sixty days following the Effective Date, and so forth, until all Annual Payments are made.
2. All data relevant to the determination of each such payment shall be submitted to the Settlement Fund Administrator sixty (60) days prior to the Payment Date for each payment. Prior to the Initial Participation Date, the Parties will include an exhibit to the Agreement setting forth in detail the process for submitting such data to the Settlement Fund Administrator prior to each Payment Date. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall then determine the Initial Year Payment or Annual Payment and the amount to be paid to each Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions, consistent with the provisions in Exhibit L, by:
a. determining, for each Settling State, the amount of base and incentive payments to which the State is entitled by applying the criteria in this Section;
b. applying any reductions, suspensions, or offsets required by Sections V and IX; and
c. determining the total amount owed by Janssen to all Settling States and Participating Subdivisions.
3. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall then allocate the Initial Year Payment or Annual Payment pursuant to Section VI among the Settling States, among the separate types of funds for each Settling State (if applicable), and among the Participating Subdivisions.
20 revised July 30, 2021
4. As soon as possible, but no later than fifty (50) days prior to the Payment Date for each payment and following the determination described in subsection V.B.2, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall give notice to Janssen, the Settling States, and the Enforcement Committee of the amount of the Initial Year Payment or Annual Payment, the amount to be received by each Settling State, the amount to be received by the separate types of funds for each Settling State (if applicable), and the amount to be received by each Settling State’s Participating Subdivisions.
5. Within twenty-one (21) days of the notice provided by the Settlement Fund Administrator, any party may dispute, in writing, the calculation of the Initial Year Payment or Annual Payment, or the amount to be received by a Settling State and/or its Participating Subdivisions. Such disputing party must provide a written notice of dispute to the Settlement Fund Administrator, the Enforcement Committee, any affected Settling State, and Janssen identifying the nature of the dispute, the amount of money that is disputed, and the Settling State(s) affected.
6. Within twenty-one (21) days of the sending of a written notice of dispute, any affected party may submit a response, in writing, to the Settlement Fund Administrator, the Enforcement Committee, any affected Settling State, and Janssen identifying the basis for disagreement with the notice of dispute.
7. If no response is filed, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall adjust the amount calculated consistent with the written notice of dispute, and Janssen shall pay the adjusted amount as the Initial Year Payment or Annual Payment on the Payment Date. If a written response to the written notice of dispute is timely sent to the Settlement Fund Administrator, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall notify Janssen of the preliminary amount to be paid, which shall be the greater of the amount originally calculated by the Settlement Fund Administrator or the amount that would be consistent with the notice of dispute, provided, however that in no circumstances shall the preliminary amount to be paid be higher than the maximum amount of base and incentive payments for that payment as set forth in Exhibit M. For the avoidance of doubt, a transfer of suspended payments from the Settlement Fund Escrow does not count toward determining whether the amount to be paid is higher than the maximum amount of base and incentive payments for that payment as set forth in Exhibit M.
8. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall place any disputed amount of the preliminary amount paid by Janssen into the Settlement Fund Escrow and shall disburse any undisputed amount to each Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions receiving direct allocations within fifteen (15) days of the Payment Date or at such later time as directed by each Settling State.
9. Disputes described in this subsection (other than those for which no response is filed under subsection V.B.6) shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of Section XII.
21 revised July 30, 2021
10. The process described in this subsection V.B shall also apply to accelerated payments made pursuant to Incentive A under subsection V.E.4.
11. For the avoidance of doubt, Subdivisions not listed on Exhibit G shall not receive an allocation from the Subdivision Fund.
C. Offsets for Non-Settling States and Credits
1. An offset equal to Four Billion, Five Hundred Thirty-Four Million, Six Hundred Fifteen Thousand, Three Hundred Eighty-Five Dollars ($4,534,615,385) times the percentage allocation assigned to each Non-Settling State in Exhibit F shall be deducted from the total amount to be paid by Janssen to the Settlement Fund under subsection V.A.2 above.
2. In addition to the offset, a credit of Two Hundred and Seventy Million Dollars ($270,000,000) shall be deducted from the maximum Settlement Fund amount to be paid by Janssen under subsection V.A.2 above and applied to the payment amounts as specified by Exhibit M. For the avoidance of doubt, the base payments and maximum incentive payment amounts shown on Exhibit M already reflect the deduction of the offset.
3. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement, in the event that: (1) Janssen enters into an agreement with any Settling State that resolves with finality such Settling State’s Claims consistent with Section IV of this Agreement and such agreement has an effective date prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement (such agreement, a “State-Specific Agreement”) and (2) pursuant to the terms of the State-Specific Agreement, any payments, or any portion thereof, made by Janssen thereunder are made in lieu of any payments (for the avoidance of doubt, including the Additional Restitution Amount), or any portion thereof, to be made under this Agreement and Janssen makes such a payment pursuant to the State-Specific Agreement, then Janssen will reduce any payments allocable to such Settling State (whether made to the Settlement Fund Escrow or the Settlement Fund) made pursuant to this Agreement to the extent such amount was already paid pursuant to the terms of the State-Specific Agreement. This provision includes but is not limited to any corresponding amounts already paid to the Qualified Settlement Fund established under the Agreement between Janssen and the State of New York dated June 25, 2021.
4. Non-Settling States shall not be eligible for any payments or have any rights in connection with this Agreement. Accordingly, the stated maximum dollar amounts of the payments specified in Exhibit M are reduced by the aggregate Overall Allocation Percentage of Non-Settling States as set forth in Exhibit F.
D. Base Payments
1. Janssen shall make base payments into the Settlement Fund totaling One Billion, Nine Hundred Forty-Two Million, Three Hundred Forty-Six Thousand, One Hundred Fifty-Five Dollars ($1,942,346,155) minus the offsets and credits 22 revised July 30, 2021
specified in subsection V.C above. The base payments will be paid in accordance with the payment schedule specified by Exhibit M, subject to potential acceleration and potential deductions as provided herein.
2. The base payments will be allocated by Settling State proportionate to each Settling State’s assigned percentages in Exhibit F, adjusted for any Non-Settling States.
3. If a State qualifies for Incentive A (described below), Janssen will accelerate the base payment schedule so that the State receives its Payment Year 1-4 base payment allocations and full Payment Year 1-4 Incentive A payment amounts within ninety (90) days of notice, on or after the Effective Date, of the Bar’s implementation. Payment Year 5-10 payments are made annually and cannot be accelerated.
4. The exemplar payment schedule in Exhibit M does not account for deductions for offsets or unearned incentives, which will be separately calculated for each payment.
E. Incentive Payments
1. Janssen shall make incentive payments into the Settlement Fund potentially totaling up to Two Billion, Three Hundred Twenty-Two Million, Two Hundred Sixty-Nine Thousand, Two Hundred Thirty Dollars ($2,322,269,230), consisting of $2,109,038,461 for Incentive A (or, alternatively up to $2,109,038,461 for combined Incentives B and C if Incentive A is not achieved) and $213,230,769 for Incentive D, prior to being adjusted for credits if every State is a Settling State and were to satisfy the requirements specified below to earn its maximum incentive amount. The incentive payments will be paid in accordance with the payment schedule in Exhibit M, subject to potential acceleration and potential deductions as provided herein.
2. The maximum incentive amount for any Settling State shall be $2,322,269,230 times the percentage allocation assigned that Settling State in Exhibit F.
3. A Settling State may qualify to receive incentive payments in addition to base payments if, as of the Incentive Payment Final Eligibility Date, it meets the incentive eligibility requirements specified below. Settling States may qualify for incentive payments in four ways. If a Settling State qualifies for “Incentive A,” it will become entitled to receive the maximum Incentive A payment allocable to the State as stated in subsection V.E.1. If a Settling State does not qualify for Incentive A, it can alternatively qualify for “Incentive B” and/or “Incentive C.” A Settling State can qualify for “Incentive D” regardless of whether it qualifies for another incentive payment. The Incentive Payment Final Eligibility Date is not relevant to Incentive D.
23 revised July 30, 2021
4. Incentive A: Accelerated Incentive Payment for Full Participation. a. A Settling State shall receive an accelerated Incentive A payment allocable to the State for full participation as described in subsection V.E.4.b.
b. A State qualifies for Incentive A by: (1) complete participation in the form of releases consistent with Section IV above from all Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts, Non-Litigating Subdivisions with population over 10,000, and Non-Litigating Covered Special Districts (as defined in subsection V.E.7.e); (2) a Bar; or (3) a combination of approaches in clauses (1)-(2) that achieves the same level of resolution of Subdivision and Special District claims (e.g., a law barring future litigation combined with full joinder by Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts). For purposes of Incentive A, a Subdivision or Special District is considered a “Litigating Subdivision” or “Litigating Special District” if it has brought Released Claims against Released Entities on or before the Reference Date; all other Subdivisions and Special Districts are considered “Non-Litigating.” For purposes of Incentive A, Non-Litigating Special Districts shall not include a Special District with any of the following words or phrases in its name: mosquito, pest, insect, spray, vector, animal, air quality, air pollution, clean air, coastal water, tuberculosis, and sanitary.
c. Qualification for Incentive A entitles the qualifying Settling State to expedited payment of base payments and incentive payments for Payment Years 1-4, which Janssen shall pay into the Settlement Fund within ninety (90) days after receiving notice from the Settlement Fund Administrator that a State has qualified for Incentive A, but in no event less than ninety (90) days from the Effective Date. Base and incentive payments for Payment Years 5-10 will not be expedited.
d. If a Settling State qualifies for Incentive A after receiving an incentive payment under Incentives B or C, described below, the Settling State’s payments under Incentive A will equal the remainder of its total Incentive A payments less any payments previously received under Incentives B or C. A Settling State that receives all of its maximum incentive allocation under Incentive A shall not receive additional incentive payments under Incentives B or C.
e. A Settling State that is not eligible for Incentive A as of the Incentive Payment Final Eligibility Date shall not be eligible for Incentive A for that Payment Year or any subsequent Payment Years.
24 revised July 30, 2021
5. Incentive B: Early Participation or Released Claims by Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts.
a. If a Settling State does not qualify for Incentive A, it may still qualify to receive up to 60% of its total potential Incentive A payment allocation under Incentive B.
b. A Settling State can qualify for an Incentive B payment if Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts collectively representing at least 75% of the Settling State’s litigating population are either Participating Subdivisions or have their claims resolved through Case- Specific Resolutions.
(1) A Settling State’s litigating population is the sum of the population of all Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts. A Settling State’s litigating population shall include all Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts whose populations overlap in whole or in part with other Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts, for instance in the case of a Litigating Special District, city, or township contained within a county. (2) For example, if a Litigating Special District and a city that is a Litigating Subdivision are located within a county that is a Litigating Subdivision, then each of their individual populations would be added together to determine the total litigating population. Special District populations shall be counted in the manner set forth in subsection XIII.B. If each qualifies as a Litigating Subdivision or Litigating Special District and the county has a population of 10, the City has a population of 8, and the Special District has a population of 1, the total litigating population would be 19.
c. The following time periods apply to Incentive B payments:
(1) Period 1: Zero to two hundred ten (210) days after the Effective Date.
(2) Period 2: Two hundred eleven (211) days to one year after the Effective Date.
(3) Period 3: One year and one day to two years after the Effective Date.
d. Within Period 1: If Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts collectively representing at least 75% of a Settling State’s litigating population are Participating Subdivisions or have their claims resolved through Case-Specific Resolutions during Period 1, a sliding scale will determine the share of the funds available under Incentive B, with a 25 revised July 30, 2021
maximum of 60% of the Settling State’s total potential incentive payment allocation available. Under that sliding scale, if Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts collectively representing 75% of a Settling State’s litigating population become Participating Subdivisions or achieve Case-Specific Resolution status by the end of Period 1, a Settling State will receive 50% of the total amount available to it under Incentive B. If more Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts become Participating Subdivisions or achieve Case-Specific Resolution status, the Settling State shall receive an increased percentage of the total amount available to it under Incentive B as shown in the table below.
Participation or Case-Specific
Resolution Levels
(As percentage of litigating
population)
Incentive B Award
(As percentage of total
amount available to State
under Incentive B)
75% 50%
76% 52%
77% 54%
78% 56%
79% 58%
80% 60%
85% 70%
90% 80%
95% 90%
100% 100%
e. Within Period 2: If a Settling State did not qualify for an Incentive B payment in Period 1, but Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts collectively representing at least 75% of the Settling State’s litigating population become Participating Subdivisions or achieve Case- Specific Resolution status by the end of Period 2, then the Settling State qualifies for 75% of the Incentive B payment it would have qualified for in Period 1.
f. Within Period 3: If a Settling State did not qualify for an Incentive B payment in Periods 1 or 2, but Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts collectively representing at least 75% of the Settling State’s litigating population become Participating Subdivisions or achieve Case-Specific Resolution status by the end of Period 3, then the Settling State qualifies for 50% of the Incentive B payment it would have qualified for in Period 1.
g. A Settling State that receives the Incentive B payment for Periods 1 and/or 2 can receive additional payments if it secures participation from additional Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts (or Case-Specific Resolutions of their claims) during Periods 2 and/or 3. 26 revised July 30, 2021
Those additional payments would equal 75% (for additional participation or Case-Specific Resolutions during Period 2) and 50% (for additional participation or Case-Specific Resolutions during Period 3) of the amount by which the increased litigating population levels would have increased the Settling State’s Incentive B payment if they had been achieved in Period 1.
h. If Litigating Subdivisions and Litigating Special Districts that have become Participating Subdivisions or achieved Case-Specific Resolution status collectively represent less than 75% of a Settling State’s litigating population by the end of Period 3, the Settling State shall not receive any Incentive B payment.
i. If there are no Litigating Subdivisions or Litigating Special Districts in a Settling State, and that Settling State is otherwise eligible for Incentive B, that Settling State will receive its full allocable share of Incentive B. j. Incentives earned under Incentive B shall accrue after each of Periods 1, 2, and 3. After each period, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall conduct a look-back to assess which Settling States vested an Incentive B payment in the preceding period. Based on the look-back, the Settlement Fund Administrator will calculate the incentives accrued under Incentive B for the period; provided that the percentage of Incentive B for which a Settling State is eligible as of the Incentive Payment Final Eligibility Date shall cap its eligibility for that Payment Year and all subsequent Payment Years.
6. Incentive C: Early Participation of Subdivisions
a. If a Settling State does not qualify for Incentive A, it may still qualify to receive up to 40% of its total potential Incentive A payment allocation under Incentive C, which has two parts.
(1) Part 1: Under Incentive C, Part 1, a Settling State can receive up to 75% of its Incentive C allocation. A Settling State can qualify for a payment under Incentive C, Part 1 only if Primary Subdivisions (whether Litigating Primary Subdivisions or Non-Litigating Primary Subdivisions as of the Reference Date) representing at least 60% of the Settling State’s Primary Subdivision population become Participating Subdivisions or achieve Case-Specific Resolution status.
(2) A Settling State’s Primary Subdivision population is the sum of the population of all Primary Subdivisions (whether Litigating Primary Subdivisions or Non-Litigating Primary Subdivisions as of the Reference Date). Because Subdivisions include Subdivisions whose populations overlap in whole or in part with other 27 revised July 30, 2021
Subdivisions, for instance in the case of a city or township contained within a county, the Settling State’s Primary Subdivision population is greater than Settling State’s total population. (Special Districts are not relevant for purposes of Incentive C calculations.) (3) A sliding scale will determine the share of the funds available under Incentive C, Part 1 to Settling States meeting the minimum 60% threshold. Under that sliding scale, if a Settling State secures participation or Case-Specific Resolutions from Primary Subdivisions representing 60% of its total Primary Subdivision population, it will receive 40% of the total amount potentially available to it under Incentive C, Part 1. If a Settling State secures participation or Case-Specific Resolutions from Primary Subdivisions representing more than 60% of its Primary
Subdivision population, the Settling State shall be entitled to receive a higher percentage of the total amount potentially available to it under Incentive C, Part 1, on the scale shown in the table below. If there are no Primary Subdivisions, and that Settling State is otherwise eligible for Incentive C, that Settling State will receive its full allocable share of Incentive C, Part 1.
Participation or Case-Specific
Resolution Levels
(As percentage of total Primary
Subdivision population)
Incentive C Award
(As percentage of total
amount available to State
under Incentive C, Part 1)
60% 40%
70% 45%
80% 50%
85% 55%
90% 60%
91% 65%
92% 70%
93% 80%
94% 90%
95% 100%
b. Part 2: If a Settling State qualifies to receive an incentive under Incentive C, Part 1, the State can also qualify to receive an additional incentive amount equal to 25% of its total potential Incentive C allocation by securing 100% participation of the ten (10) largest Subdivisions by population in the Settling State. (Special Districts are not relevant for purposes of this calculation.) If a Settling State does not qualify for any amount under Incentive C, Part 1, it cannot qualify for Incentive C, Part 2. c. Incentives earned under Incentive C shall accrue on an annual basis up to three years after the Effective Date. At one, two, and three years after the 28 revised July 30, 2021
Effective Date, the Settlement Fund Administrator will conduct a look- back to assess which Subdivisions had agreed to participate or had their claim resolved through a Case-Specific Resolution that year. Based on the look-back, the Settlement Fund Administrator will calculate the incentives accrued under Incentive C for the year; provided that the percentage of Incentive C for which a Settling State is eligible as of the Incentive Payment Final Eligibility Date shall cap its eligibility for that Payment Year and all subsequent Payment Years.
7. Incentive D: Release of Payments if No Qualifying Special District Litigation. a. $213,230,769 shall be available for potential Incentive D payments according to the terms specified in this subsection V.E.7. b. If, within five years of the Reference Date, a Covered Special District files litigation against any Released Entity, Janssen shall, within thirty (30) days of Janssen being served, provide notice of the litigation to the Settling State in which the Covered Special District sits, which shall file a motion to intervene in the litigation and use its best efforts to obtain either dismissal of the litigation in cooperation with Janssen, or a release consistent with Section IV of the Special District’s Claims. c. A Settling State shall receive its allocation of the Incentive D payment if, within five years after the Effective Date (the “look-back date”), no Covered Special District within the Settling State has filed litigation which has survived a Threshold Motion and remains pending as of the look-back date, unless the dismissal after the litigation survived the Threshold Motion is conditioned or predicated upon payment by a Released Entity (apart from payments by Janssen incurred under the Agreement or injunctive relief obligations incurred by it).
d. Prior to the look-back date, a Released Entity shall not enter into a settlement with a Covered Special District unless the State in which the Covered Special District sits consents to such a settlement or unreasonably withholds consent of such a settlement.
e. “Covered Special Districts” are school districts, healthcare/hospital districts, and fire districts, subject to the following population thresholds:
(1) For school districts, the K-12 student enrollment must be 25,000 or
0.12% of a State’s population, whichever is greater;
(2) For fire districts, the district must cover a population of 25,000, or
0.20% of a State’s population if a State’s population is greater than 18 million. If not easily calculable from state data sources and agreed to between the State and Janssen, a fire district’s population is calculated by dividing the population of the county or counties a 29 revised July 30, 2021
fire district serves by the number of fire districts in the county or counties.
(3) For healthcare/hospital districts, the district must have at least 125 hospital beds in one or more hospitals rendering services in that district.
VI. Allocation and Use of Settlement Funds
A. Components of Settlement Fund. The Settlement Fund shall be comprised of an Abatement Accounts Fund, a State Fund, and a Subdivision Fund for each Settling State. The payments under Section V into the Settlement Fund shall be initially allocated among those three (3) sub-funds and distributed and used as provided below or as provided for by a State-Subdivision Agreement (or other State-specific allocation of funds). Unless otherwise specified herein, payments placed into the Settlement Fund do not revert back to Janssen.
B. Use of Settlement Payments.
1. It is the intent of the Parties that the payments disbursed from the Settlement Fund to Settling States and Participating Subdivisions listed in Exhibit G be for Opioid Remediation, subject to limited exceptions that must be documented in accordance with subsection VI.B.2. In no event may less than 86.5% of Janssen’s maximum amount of payments pursuant to Sections V, X, and XI over the entirety of all Payment Years (but not any single Payment Year) be spent on Opioid Remediation.
2. While disfavored by the Parties, a Settling State or Participating Subdivision listed on Exhibit G may use monies from the Settlement Fund (that have not been restricted by this Agreement solely to future Opioid Remediation) for purposes that do not qualify as Opioid Remediation. If, at any time, a Settling State or a Participating Subdivision listed on Exhibit G uses any monies from the Settlement Fund for a purpose that does not qualify as Opioid Remediation, such Settling State or Participating Subdivision shall identify such amounts and report to the Settlement Fund Administrator and Janssen how such funds were used, including if used to pay attorneys’ fees, investigation costs, litigation costs, or costs related to the operation and enforcement of this Agreement, respectively. It is the intent of the Parties that the reporting under this subsection VI.B.2 shall be available to the public. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) any amounts not identified under this subsection VI.B.2 as used to pay attorneys’ fees, investigation costs, or litigation costs shall be included in the “Compensatory Restitution Amount” for purposes of subsection VI.F and (b) Participating Subdivisions not listed on Exhibit G or Participating Special Districts that receive monies from the Settlement Fund indirectly may only use such monies from the Settlement Fund for purposes that qualify as Opioid Remediation.
30 revised July 30, 2021
C. Allocation of Settlement Fund. The allocation of the Settlement Fund allows for different approaches to be taken in different states, such as through a State-Subdivision Agreement. Given the uniqueness of States and their Subdivisions, Settling States and Participating Subdivisions are encouraged to enter into State-Subdivision Agreements in order to direct the allocation of their portion of the Settlement Fund. As set out below, the Settlement Fund Administrator will make an initial allocation to three (3) state-level sub-funds. The Settlement Fund Administrator will then, for each Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G, apply the terms of this Agreement and any relevant State-Subdivision Agreement, Statutory Trust, Allocation Statute, or voluntary redistribution of funds as set out below before disbursing the funds.
1. Base Payments. The Settlement Fund Administrator will allocate base payments under subsection V.D among the Settling States in proportion to their respective Overall Allocation Percentages. Base payments for each Settling State will then be allocated 15% to its State Fund, 70% to its Abatement Accounts Fund, and 15% to its Subdivision Fund. Amounts may be reallocated and will be distributed as provided in subsection VI.D.
2. Incentive Payments. The Settlement Fund Administrator will treat incentive payments under subsection V.E on a State-specific basis. Incentive payments for which a Settling State is eligible under subsection V.E will be allocated 15% to its State Fund, 70% to its Abatement Accounts Fund, and 15% to its Subdivision Fund. Amounts may be reallocated and will be distributed as provided in subsection VI.D.
3. Application of Adjustments. If a reduction, offset, or suspension under Section IX applies with respect to a Settling State, the reduction, offset, or suspension shall be applied proportionally to all amounts that would otherwise be apportioned and distributed to the State Fund, the Abatement Accounts Fund, and the Subdivision Fund for that State.
4. Settlement Fund Administrator. Prior to the Initial Participation Date, Janssen and the Enforcement Committee will agree to a detailed mechanism consistent with the foregoing for the Settlement Fund Administrator to follow in allocating, apportioning, and distributing payments, which shall be appended hereto as Exhibit L.
5. Settlement Fund Administrator Costs. Any costs and fees associated with or arising out of the duties of the Settlement Fund Administrator as described in Exhibit L with regard to Janssen’s payments to the Settlement Fund shall be paid out of interest accrued on the Settlement Fund and from the Settlement Fund should such interest prove insufficient.
D. Settlement Fund Reallocation and Distribution. As set forth below, within a particular Settling State’s account, amounts contained in the Settlement Fund sub-funds may be reallocated and distributed per a State-Subdivision Agreement or other means. If the 31 revised July 30, 2021
apportionment of amounts is not addressed and controlled under subsections VI.D.1-2, then the default provisions of subsection VI.D.4 apply. It is not necessary that a State- Subdivision Agreement or other means of allocating funds pursuant to subsections VI.D.1-2 address all of the Settlement Fund sub-funds. For example, a Statutory Trust might only address disbursements from a Settling State’s Abatement Accounts Fund.
1. Distribution by State-Subdivision Agreement. If a Settling State has a State- Subdivision Agreement, amounts apportioned to that State’s State Fund, Abatement Accounts Fund, and Subdivision Fund under subsection VI.C shall be reallocated and distributed as provided by that agreement. Any State-Subdivision Agreement entered into after the Preliminary Agreement Date shall be applied only if it requires: (1) that all amounts be used for Opioid Remediation, except as allowed by subsection VI.B.2, and (2) that at least 70% of amounts be used solely for future Opioid Remediation (references to “future Opioid Remediation” include amounts paid to satisfy any future demand by another governmental entity to make a required reimbursement in connection with the past care and treatment of a person related to the Alleged Harms). For a State-Subdivision Agreement to be applied to the relevant portion of an Initial Year Payment or an Annual Payment, notice must be provided to Janssen and the Settlement Fund Administrator at least sixty (60) days prior to the Payment Date.
2. Distribution by Allocation Statute. If a Settling State has an Allocation Statute and/or a Statutory Trust that addresses allocation or distribution of amounts apportioned to such State’s State Fund, Abatement Accounts Fund, and/or Subdivision Fund and that, to the extent any or all such sub-funds are addressed, requires (1) all amounts to be used for Opioid Remediation, except as allowed by subsection VI.B.2, and (2) at least 70% of all amounts to be used solely for future Opioid Remediation, then, to the extent allocation or distribution is addressed, the amounts apportioned to that State’s State Fund, Abatement Accounts Fund, and Subdivision Fund under subsection VI.C shall be allocated and distributed as addressed and provided by the applicable Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust.
For the avoidance of doubt, an Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust need not address all three (3) sub-funds that comprise the Settlement Fund, and if the applicable Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust does not address distribution of all or some of these three (3) sub-funds, the applicable Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust does not replace the default provisions in subsection VI.D.4 of any such unaddressed fund. For example, if an Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust that meets the requirements of this subsection VI.D.2 only addresses funds restricted to abatement, then the default provisions in this Agreement concerning allocation among the three (3) sub-funds comprising the Settlement Fund and the distribution of the State Fund and Subdivision Fund for that State would still apply, while the distribution of the applicable State’s Abatement Accounts Fund would be governed by the qualifying Allocation Statute or Statutory Trust.
3. Voluntary Redistribution. A Settling State may choose to reallocate all or a portion of its State Fund to its Abatement Accounts Fund. A Participating Subdivision listed on Exhibit G may choose to reallocate all or a portion of its 32 revised July 30, 2021
allocation from the Subdivision Fund to the State’s Abatement Accounts Fund or to another Participating Subdivision or Participating Special District. For a voluntary redistribution to be applied to the relevant portion of an Initial Year Payment or an Annual Payment, notice must be provided to the Settling Distributors and the Settlement Fund Administrator at least sixty (60) days prior to the Payment Date.
4. Distribution in the Absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust. If subsections VI.D.1-2 do not apply, amounts apportioned to that State’s State Fund, Abatement Accounts Fund, and Subdivision Fund under subsection VI.C shall be distributed as follows:
a. Amounts apportioned to that State’s State Fund shall be distributed to that State.
b. Amounts apportioned to that State’s Abatement Accounts Fund shall be distributed consistent with subsection VI.E. Each Settling State shall submit to the Settlement Fund Administrator a designation of a lead state agency or other entity to serve as the single point of contact for that Settling State’s funding requests from the Abatement Accounts Fund and other communications with the Settlement Fund Administrator. The designation of an individual entity is for administrative purposes only and such designation shall not limit funding to such entity or even require that such entity receive funds from this Agreement. The designated entity shall be the only entity authorized to request funds from the Settlement Fund Administrator to be disbursed from that Settling State’s Abatement Accounts Fund. If a Settling State has established a Statutory Trust then that Settling State’s single point of contact may direct the Settlement Fund Administrator to release the State’s Abatement Accounts Fund to the Statutory Trust.
c. Amounts apportioned to that State’s Subdivision Fund shall be distributed to Participating Subdivisions in that State listed on Exhibit G per the Subdivision Allocation Percentage listed in Exhibit G. Subsection VII.I shall govern amounts that would otherwise be distributed to Non- Participating Subdivisions listed in Exhibit G.
d. Special Districts shall not be allocated funds from the Subdivision Fund, except through a voluntary redistribution allowed by subsection VI.D.3. A Settling State may allocate funds from its State Fund or Abatement Accounts Fund for Special Districts.
5. Restrictions on Distribution. No amounts may be distributed from the Subdivision Fund contrary to Section VII, i.e., no amounts may be distributed directly to Non- Participating Subdivisions or to Later Participating Subdivisions in excess of what is permissible under subsection VII.E. Amounts allocated to the Subdivision Fund that cannot be distributed by virtue of the preceding sentence shall be distributed 33 revised July 30, 2021
into the sub-account in the Abatement Accounts Fund for the Settling State in which the Subdivision is located, unless those payments are redirected elsewhere by a State-Subdivision Agreement described in subsection VI.D.1 or by an Allocation Statute or a Statutory Trust described in subsection VI.D.2.
E. Provisions Regarding Abatement Accounts Fund.
1. State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, and Statutory Trust Fund Provisions. A State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust may govern the operation and use of amounts in that State’s Abatement Accounts Fund so long as it complies with the requirements of subsection VI.D.1 or VI.D.2 as applicable, and all direct payments to Subdivisions comply with subsections VII.E-H.
2. Absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust.
In the absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust that addresses distribution, the Abatement Accounts Fund will be used solely for future Opioid Remediation and the following shall apply with respect to a Settling State:
a. Regional Remediation.
(1) At least 50% of distributions for remediation from a State’s Abatement Accounts Fund shall be annually allocated and tracked to the regional level. A Settling State may allow the Advisory Committee established pursuant to subsection VI.E.2.d to define its regions and assign regional allocations percentages. Otherwise, a Settling State shall (1) define its initial regions, which shall consist of one (1) or more Subdivisions and which shall be designated by the State agency with primary responsibility for substance abuse disorder services employing, to the maximum extent practical, existing regions established in that State for opioid abuse treatment or other public health purposes; and (2) assign initial regional allocation percentages to the regions based on the Subdivision Allocation Percentages in Exhibit G and an assumption that all Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G will become Participating Subdivisions.
(2) This minimum regional expenditure percentage is calculated on the Settling State’s initial Abatement Accounts Fund allocation and does not include any additional amounts a Settling State has directed to its Abatement Accounts Fund from its State Fund, or any other amounts directed to the fund. A Settling State may dedicate more than 50% of its Abatement Accounts Fund to the regional expenditure and may annually adjust the percentage of its Abatement Accounts Fund dedicated to regional expenditures as long as the percentage remains above the minimum amount. 34 revised July 30, 2021
(3) The Settling State (1) has the authority to adjust the definition of the regions, and (2) may annually revise the percentages allocated to each region to reflect the number of Subdivisions in each region that are Non-Participating Subdivisions.
b. Subdivision Block Grants. Certain Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G shall be eligible to receive regional allocation funds in the form of a block grant for future Opioid Remediation. A Participating Subdivision listed on Exhibit G eligible for block grants is a county or parish (or in the case of States that do not have counties or parishes that function as political subdivisions, a city) that (1) does not contain a Litigating Subdivision or a Later Litigating Subdivision for which it has the authority to end the litigation through a release, bar, or other action; (2) either (i) has a population of 400,000 or more or (ii) in the case of California has a population of 750,000 or more; and (3) has funded or otherwise managed an established health care or treatment infrastructure (e.g., health department or similar agency). Each Subdivision listed on Exhibit G eligible to receive block grants shall be assigned its own region. c. Small States. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection VI.E.2.a, Settling States with populations under four (4) million that do not have existing regions described in subsection VI.E.2.a shall not be required to establish regions. However, such a Settling State that contains one (1) or more Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G eligible for block grants under subsection VI.E.2.b shall be divided regionally so that each block-grant eligible Subdivision listed on Exhibit G is a region and the remainder of the state is a region.
d. Advisory Committee. The Settling State shall designate an Opioid Settlement Remediation Advisory Committee (the “Advisory Committee”) to provide input and recommendations regarding remediation spending from that Settling State’s Abatement Accounts Fund. A Settling State may elect to use an existing advisory committee or similar entity (created outside of a State-Subdivision Agreement or Allocation Statute); provided, however, the Advisory Committee or similar entity shall meet the following requirements:
(1) Written guidelines that establish the formation and composition of the Advisory Committee, terms of service for members,
contingency for removal or resignation of members, a schedule of meetings, and any other administrative details;
(2) Composition that includes at least an equal number of local representatives as state representatives;
(3) A process for receiving input from Subdivisions and other communities regarding how the opioid crisis is affecting their 35 revised July 30, 2021
communities, their abatement needs, and proposals for abatement strategies and responses; and
(4) A process by which Advisory Committee recommendations for expenditures for Opioid Remediation will be made to and considered by the appropriate state agencies.
3. Abatement Accounts Fund Reporting. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall track and assist in the report of remediation disbursements as agreed to among the Parties.
F. Nature of Payment. Janssen, the Settling States, the Participating Subdivisions, and the Participating Special Districts, acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the scope of the Released Claims:
1. Janssen has entered into this Agreement to avoid the delay, expense, inconvenience, and uncertainty of further litigation;
2. The Settling States, the Participating Subdivisions, and the Participating Special Districts sought compensatory restitution (within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A)) as damages for the Alleged Harms allegedly suffered by the Settling States and Participating Subdivisions;
3. By executing this Agreement the Settling States, the Participating Subdivisions, and the Participating Special Districts certify that: (a) the Compensatory Restitution Amount is no greater than the amount, in the aggregate, of the Alleged Harms allegedly suffered by the Settling States and Participating Subdivisions; and (b) the portion of the Compensatory Restitution Amount received by each Settling State or Participating Subdivision is no greater than the amount of the Alleged Harms allegedly suffered by such Settling State or Participating Subdivision;
4. The payment of the Compensatory Restitution Amount by Janssen constitutes, and is paid for, compensatory restitution (within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A)) for alleged damage or harm (as compensation for alleged damage or harm arising out of alleged bodily injury) allegedly caused by Janssen;
5. The Compensatory Restitution Amount is being paid as compensatory restitution (within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 162(f)(2)(A)) in order to restore, in whole or in part, the Settling States and Participating Subdivisions to the same position or condition that they would be in had the Settling States and Participating Subdivisions not suffered the Alleged Harms;
6. For the avoidance of doubt: (a) no portion of the Compensatory Restitution Amount represents reimbursement to any Settling State, Participating Subdivision, Participating Special District, or other person or entity for the costs of any investigation or litigation, (b) the entire Compensatory Restitution Amount 36 revised July 30, 2021
is properly characterized as described in subsection VI.F, and (c) no portion of the Compensatory Restitution Amount constitutes disgorgement or is properly characterized as the payment of statutory or other fines, penalties, punitive damages, other punitive assessments, or attorneys’ fees; and
7. New York, on behalf of all Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and Participating Special Districts (the “Form 1098-F Filer”) shall complete and file Form 1098-F with the Internal Revenue Service on or before February 28 (March 31 if filed electronically) of the year following the calendar year in which the order entering this Agreement becomes binding. On the Form 1098-F, the Form 1098-F Filer shall identify the entire Compensatory Restitution Amount received by the Form 1098-F Filer as remediation/restitution. The Form 1098-F Filer shall also, on or before January 31 of the year following the calendar year in which the order entering this Agreement becomes binding, furnish Copy B of such Form 1098-F (or an acceptable substitute statement) to Janssen.
VII. Participation by Subdivisions and Special Districts A. Notice. No later than fifteen (15) days after the Preliminary Agreement Date, the Settling States, with the cooperation of Janssen, shall send individual written notice of the opportunity to participate in this Agreement and the requirements of participation to all Subdivisions in the Settling States of this Agreement that are (1) Litigating Subdivisions or (2) Non-Litigating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G as eligible to become Participating Subdivisions. Janssen’s share of costs of the written notice to such Subdivisions shall be advanced by Janssen and deducted from its initial settlement payment. Notice shall also be provided simultaneously to counsel of record for Litigating Subdivisions and Non- Litigating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G as eligible to become Participating Subdivisions. The Settling States, with the cooperation of Janssen, will also provide general notice reasonably calculated to alert Non-Litigating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G in the Settling States to this Agreement, the opportunity to participate in it and the requirements for participation. Such notice may include publication and other standard forms of notification, as well as notice to national state and county organizations such as the National Association of Counties and the National League of Cities. The notice will include that the deadline for becoming an Initial Participating Subdivision is the Initial Participation Date. Nothing contained herein shall preclude a Settling State from providing further notice to or otherwise contacting any of its Subdivisions about becoming a Participating Subdivision, including beginning any of the activities described in this paragraph prior to the Preliminary Agreement Date.
B. Requirements for Becoming a Participating Subdivision: Non-Litigating Subdivisions. A Non-Litigating Subdivision in a Settling State that is listed on Exhibit G may become a Participating Subdivision by returning an executed Subdivision Settlement Participation Form specifying (1) that the Subdivision agrees to the terms of this Agreement pertaining to Subdivisions, (2) that the Subdivision releases all Released Claims against all Released Entities, (3) that the Subdivision agrees to use monies it receives, if any, from the Settlement Fund pursuant to the applicable requirements of Section VI, and (4) that the Subdivision submits to the jurisdiction of the court where the Consent Judgment is filed 37 revised July 30, 2021
for purposes limited to that court’s role under the Agreement. The required Subdivision Settlement Participation Form is attached as Exhibit K.
C. Requirements for Becoming a Participating Subdivision: Litigating Subdivisions/Later Litigating Subdivisions. A Litigating Subdivision or Later Litigating Subdivision in a Settling State may become a Participating Subdivision by returning an executed Subdivision Settlement Participation Form to the Settlement Fund Administrator and upon prompt dismissal of its legal action. A Settling State may require each Litigating Subdivision in that State to specify on the Subdivision Settlement Participation Form whether its counsel has waived any contingency fee contract with that Participating Subdivision and intends to seek fees according to Exhibit R. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall provide quarterly reports of this information to the parties organized by Settling State. Except for trials begun before the Initial Participation Date, a Litigating Subdivision or a Later Litigating Subdivision may not become a Participating Subdivision after the completion of opening statements in a trial of a legal action it brought that includes a Released Claim against a Released Entity.
D. Initial Participating Subdivisions. A Subdivision qualifies as an Initial Participating Subdivision if it meets the applicable requirements for becoming a Participating Subdivision set forth in subsections VII.B or VII.C by the Initial Participation Date.
Provided however, all Subdivision Settlement Participation Forms shall be held by the Settlement Fund Administrator until Janssen provides the notice in subsection VIII.B that it intends to proceed with the settlement, at which time the obligations created by such forms become effective.
E. Later Participating Subdivisions. A Subdivision that is not an Initial Participating Subdivision may become a Later Participating Subdivision by meeting the applicable requirements for becoming a Participating Subdivision after the Initial Participation Date and agreeing to be subject to the terms of a State-Subdivision Agreement (if any) or any other structure adopted or applicable pursuant to subsections VI.D or VI.E. The following provisions govern what a Later Participating Subdivision can receive (but do not apply to Initial Participating Subdivisions):
1. A Later Participating Subdivision shall not receive any share of any base or incentive payments paid to the Subdivision Fund that were due before it became a Participating Subdivision.
2. A Later Participating Subdivision that becomes a Participating Subdivision after July 15, 2022 shall receive 75% of the share of future base or incentive payments that it would have received had it become a Later Participating Subdivision before that date (unless the Later Participating Subdivision is subject to subsections VII.E.3 or VII.E.4 below).
3. A Later Participating Subdivision that, after the Initial Participation Date, maintains a lawsuit for a Released Claim(s) against a Released Entity and has judgment entered against it on every such Claim before it became a Participating Subdivision (other than a consensual dismissal with prejudice) shall receive 50% 38 revised July 30, 2021
of the share of future base or incentive payments that it would have received had it become a Later Participating Subdivision prior to such judgment; provided, however, that if the Subdivision appeals the judgment and the judgment is affirmed with finality before the Subdivision becomes a Participating Subdivision, the Subdivision shall not receive any share of any base payment or incentive payment.
4. A Later Participating Subdivision that becomes a Participating Subdivision while a Bar or Case-Specific Resolution involving a different Subdivision exists in its State shall receive 25% of the share of future base or incentive payments that it would have received had it become a Later Participating Subdivision without such Bar or Case-Specific Resolution.
F. No Increase in Payments. Amounts to be received by Later Participating Subdivisions shall not increase the payments due from Janssen.
G. Ineligible Subdivisions. Subdivisions in Non-Settling States and Prior Litigating Subdivisions are not eligible to be Participating Subdivisions.
H. Non-Participating Subdivisions. Non-Participating Subdivisions shall not directly receive any portion of any base or incentive payments, including from the State Fund and direct distributions from the Abatement Accounts Fund; however, a Settling State may choose to fund future Opioid Remediation that indirectly benefits Non-Participating Subdivisions.
I. Unpaid Allocations to Later Participating and Non-Participating Subdivisions. Any base payment and incentive payments allocated pursuant to subsection VI.D to a Later Participating or Non-Participating Subdivision that cannot be paid pursuant to this Section VII, will be allocated to the Abatement Accounts Fund for the Settling State in which the Subdivision is located, unless those payments are redirected elsewhere by a State-Subdivision Agreement or by a Statutory Trust.
J. Requirements for Becoming a Participating Special District: Non-Litigating Special Districts. A Non-Litigating Special District may become a Participating Special District by either executing a release consistent with Section IV or by having its claims extinguished by operation of law or released by a Settling State.
K. Requirements for Becoming a Participating Special District: Litigating Special Districts/Later Litigating Special Districts. A Litigating Special District or Later Litigating Special District in a Settling State may become a Participating Special District by either executing a release consistent with Section IV and upon prompt dismissal of its legal action or by having its claims extinguished by operation of law or released by a Settling State.
L. Initial Participating Special Districts. A Special District qualifies as an Initial Participating Special District if it meets the applicable requirements for becoming a Participating Special District by the Initial Participation Date. 39 revised July 30, 2021
M. Later Participating Special Districts. A Special District that is not an Initial Participating Special District may become a Later Participating Special District by meeting the applicable requirements for becoming a Participating Special District after the Initial Participation Date and agreeing to be subject to the terms of any agreement reached by the applicable Settling State with Initial Participating Special Districts. A Later Participating Special District shall not receive any share of any base or incentive payments paid to the Settlement Fund that were due before it became a Participating Special District.
VIII. Condition to Effectiveness of Agreement and Filing of Consent Judgment A. Determination to Proceed With Settlement. Janssen will determine on or before the Reference Date whether there has been a sufficient resolution of the Claims of the Litigating Subdivisions in the Settling States (through participation under Section VII, Case-Specific Resolution(s), and Bar(s)) to proceed with this Agreement. The determination shall be in the sole discretion of Janssen and may be based on any criteria or factors deemed relevant by Janssen.
B. Notice by Janssen. On or before the Reference Date, Janssen shall inform the Settling States and MDL PEC of its determination pursuant to subsection VIII.A. If Janssen determines to proceed, the Parties will proceed to file the Consent Judgments. If Janssen determines not to proceed, this Agreement will have no further effect and all releases (including those given by Participating Subdivisions) and other commitments or obligations contained herein will be void.
C. Determination of the Participation Tier.
1. On the Reference Date, provided that Janssen determines to proceed with this Agreement, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall determine the Participation Tier. The criteria used to determine the Participation Tier are set forth in Exhibit H. Any disputes as to the determination of the Participation Tier shall be decided by the National Arbitration Panel.
2. The Participation Tier shall be redetermined by the Settlement Fund Administrator annually as of the Payment Date, beginning with Payment Year 1, pursuant to the criteria set forth in Exhibit H.
3. After Payment Year 3, the Participation Tier cannot move higher, unless this restriction is waived by Janssen.
4. In the event that a Participation Tier redetermination moves the Participation Tier higher, and that change is in whole or in part as a result of the post-Reference Date enactment of a Bar and there is later a Revocation Event with respect to that Bar, then on the next Payment Date that is at least one hundred eighty (180) days after the Revocation Event, the Participation Tier shall move down to the Participation Tier that would have applied had the Bar never been enacted, unless the Bar is reinstated or all Subdivisions affected by the Revocation Event become Participating Subdivisions within one hundred eighty (180) days of the 40 revised July 30, 2021
Revocation Event. This is the sole circumstance in which, on a nationwide basis, the Participation Tier can move down.
5. In the event that there is a post-Reference Date Revocation Event with respect to a Bar that was enacted in a Settling State prior to the Reference Date, then, on the next Payment Date that is at least one hundred eighty (180) days after the Revocation Event, unless the Bar is reinstated or all Subdivisions affected by the Revocation Event become Participating Subdivisions within one hundred eighty (180) days of the Revocation Event, the Participation Tier shall decrease – solely for the State in which the Revocation Event occurred – to the Participation Tier commensurate with the percentage of Litigating Subdivisions in that State that are Participating Subdivisions and the percentage of Non-Litigating Subdivisions that are both Primary Subdivisions and Participating Subdivisions, according to the criteria set forth in Exhibit H, except that the calculations shall be performed as to that State alone. For the avoidance of doubt and solely for the calculation in this subparagraph, the Settling States Column of Exhibit H shall play no role. This is the sole circumstance in which one Settling State will have a different Participation Tier than other Settling States.
6. The redetermination of the Participation Tier under subsection VIII.C.2 shall not affect payments already made or suspensions or offsets already applied.
IX. Potential Payment Adjustments
A. Later Litigating Subdivisions.
1. If a Later Litigating Subdivision in a Settling State with a population above 10,000 brings a lawsuit or other legal proceeding against Released Entities asserting Released Claims, Janssen shall, within thirty (30) days of the lawsuit or other legal proceeding being served on Janssen, provide notice of the lawsuit or other legal proceeding to the Settlement Fund Administrator and the Settling State in which the Later Litigating Subdivision sits and provide the Settling State an opportunity to intervene in the lawsuit or other legal proceeding. A Released Entity shall not enter into a settlement with a Later Litigating Subdivision unless the State in which the Later Litigating Subdivision sits consents to such a settlement or unreasonably withholds consent to such a settlement.
2. If no Participation Tier applies and the Later Litigating Subdivision’s lawsuit or other legal proceeding survives a Threshold Motion before Janssen makes its last settlement payment to the Settling State, the following shall apply:
a. Janssen will, from the date of the entry of the order denying the Threshold Motion and so long as the lawsuit or other legal proceeding is pending, be entitled to a suspension of the following payments it would otherwise owe the Settling State in which the Later Litigating Subdivision is located: (1) all remaining incentive payments to the relevant state; and (2) the last two scheduled base payments, if not already paid (the “Suspended Payments”). 41 revised July 30, 2021
b. For each Payment Year that Janssen is entitled to a suspension of payments, the Settlement Fund Administrator shall calculate the Suspended Payments applicable to the next Payment due from Janssen.
The Suspended Payments shall be paid into the Settlement Fund Escrow account.
3. If a Participation Tier applies at the time the Threshold Motion is denied, Janssen will be entitled to a suspension of the following percentages of Suspended Payments depending on the applicable Tier—75% for Tier 1, 50% for Tier 2, 35% for Tier 3, and 25% for Tier 4. Otherwise, the requirements of subsection IX.A.2 apply.
4. If the Released Claim is resolved with finality without requirement of payment by a Released Entity, the placement of any remaining balance of the Suspended Payments into the Settlement Fund Escrow shall cease and the Settlement Fund Administrator shall immediately transfer amounts in the Settlement Fund Escrow on account of the suspension to the Settling State at issue and its Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G. The lawsuit will not cause further suspensions unless the Released Claim is reinstated upon further review, legislative action, or otherwise.
5. If the Released Claim is resolved with finality on terms requiring payment by a Released Entity (e.g., if the lawsuit in which the Released Claim is asserted results in a judgment against Janssen or a settlement with Janssen), the Settlement Fund Administrator will transfer the amounts in the Settlement Fund Escrow on account of the suspension to Janssen necessary to satisfy 75% of the payment obligation of the Released Entity to the relevant Later Litigating Subdivision. The Settlement Fund Administrator shall immediately transfer any remaining balance in the Settlement Fund Escrow on account of the suspension to the Settling State at issue and its Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G. If the amount to be transferred to Janssen exceeds the amounts in the Settlement Fund Escrow on account of the suspension, Janssen shall receive a dollar-for-dollar offset for the excess amount against its obligation to pay any remaining payments that would be apportioned to the Settling State at issue and to its Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G.
B. Settlement Class Resolution Opt Outs. If a Settling State is eligible for Incentive A on the basis of a Settlement Class Resolution, and a Primary Subdivision that opted out of the Settlement Class Resolution maintains a lawsuit asserting a Released Claim against a Released Entity, the following shall apply. If the lawsuit asserting a Released Claim either survives a Threshold Motion or has an unresolved Threshold Motion fewer than sixty (60) days prior to the scheduled start of a trial involving a Released Claim, and is resolved with finality on terms requiring payment by the Released Entity, Janssen shall receive a dollar-for-dollar offset for the amount paid against its obligation to make remaining Incentive A payments that would be apportioned to that State or Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G. For the avoidance of doubt, an offset shall not be 42 revised July 30, 2021
applicable under this subsection if it is applicable under subsection IX.A with respect to the Subdivision at issue.
C. Revoked Bar, Settlement Class Resolution, or Case-Specific Resolution.
1. If Janssen made a payment as a result of the existence of a Bar, Settlement Class Resolution, or Case-Specific Resolution in a Settling State, and that Bar, Settlement Class Resolution, or Case-Specific Resolution is subject to a Revocation Event, Janssen shall receive a dollar-for-dollar offset against its obligation to make remaining payments that would be apportioned to that State or Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G. This offset will be calculated as the dollar amount difference between (1) the total amount of incentive payments paid by Janssen during the time the Bar, Settlement Class Resolution, or Case- Specific Resolution subject to the Revocation Event was in effect, and (2) the total amount of Incentive Payments that would have been due from Janssen during that time without the Bar, Settlement Class Resolution, or Case-Specific Resolution subject to the Revocation Event being in effect. The amount of incentive payments that would have been due, referenced in (2) above, will be calculated based on considering any Subdivision that provides a release within one hundred eighty (180) days after the Revocation Event as having been a Participating Subdivision (in addition to all other Participating Subdivisions) during the time that the Bar, Settlement Class Resolution, or Case-Specific Resolution subject to the Revocation Event was in effect. If a Revocation Event causes a Settling State to no longer qualify for Incentive D, the Settling State shall return to Janssen all payments made under Incentive D.
2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraph 1 above, if a Bar or Case- Specific Resolution is reinstated by the Settling State, either through the same or different means as the initial Bar or Case-Specific Resolution, Janssen’s right to an offset is extinguished and any amounts withheld to offset amounts paid on account of the revoked, rescinded, reversed, or overruled Bar or Case-Specific Resolution shall be returned to the Settling State, less and except any incentive payments that would have been paid during the period in which the Bar or Case- Specific Resolution was revoked, rescinded, reversed, or overruled.
X. Additional Restitution Amount
A. Additional Restitution Amount. Pursuant to the schedule set forth below and subject to the reduction specified in subsection X.B below, Janssen shall pay an Additional Restitution Amount to the Settling States listed in Exhibit N. Such funds shall be paid on the schedule set forth on Exhibit M on the Payment Date for each relevant Payment Year to such Settling States as allocated by the Settlement Fund Administrator pursuant to Exhibit N.
Payment Year 1 $15,384,615.38
Payment Year 2 $26,923,076.92
43 revised July 30, 2021
Payment Year 3 $25,000,000.00
B. Reduction of Additional Restitution Amount. In the event that any Non-Settling State appears on Exhibit N, the amounts owed by Janssen pursuant to this Section X shall be reduced by the allocation set forth on Exhibit N for any such Non-Settling States.
C. Use of Funds. All funds paid as an Additional Restitution Amount shall be part of the Compensatory Restitution Amount, shall be used for Opioid Remediation, except as allowed by subsection VI.B.2, and shall be governed by the same requirements as specified in subsection VI.F.
XI. Plaintiffs’ Attorneys’ Fees and Costs
A. The Agreement on Attorneys’ Fees, Expenses and Costs is set forth in Exhibit R and incorporated herein by reference. The Agreement on the State Outside Counsel Fee Fund and Agreement on the State Cost Fund Administration are set forth in Exhibit U and Exhibit S, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
XII. Enforcement and Dispute Resolution
A. Enforceability. The terms of the Agreement and Consent Judgment applicable to or in a Settling State will be enforceable solely by that Settling State and Janssen. Settling States or Participating Subdivisions shall not have enforcement rights with respect either to the terms of this Agreement that apply only to or in other States or to any Consent Judgment entered into by another Settling State. Participating Subdivisions shall not have enforcement rights against Janssen with respect to the Agreement or any Consent Judgment except as to payments that would be allocated to the Subdivision Fund or Abatement Accounts Fund pursuant to Section VI; provided, however, that each Settling State shall allow Participating Subdivisions in that State to notify it of any perceived violations of the Agreement or Consent Judgment.
B. Jurisdiction. Janssen consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which the Consent Judgment is filed, limited to resolution of disputes identified in subsection XII.F.2 for resolution in the court in which the Consent Judgment is filed.
C. Specific Terms Dispute Resolution.
1. Any dispute that is addressed by the provisions set forth in the Injunctive Relief terms in Exhibit P shall be resolved as provided therein.
2. In the event Janssen believes the 86.5% threshold established in subsection VI.B.1 is not being satisfied, any Party may request that Janssen and the Enforcement Committee meet and confer regarding the use of funds under subsection VI.B.1.
The completion of such meet-and-confer process is a precondition to further action regarding any such dispute. Further action concerning subsection VI.B.1 shall: (i) be limited to Janssen seeking to reduce its Annual Payments by no more than 5% of the difference between the actual amount of Opioid Remediation and the 86.5% threshold established in subsection VI.B.1; (ii) only reduce Annual 44 revised July 30, 2021
Payments to those Settling States and its Participating Subdivisions that are below the 86.5% threshold established in subsection VI.B.1; and (iii) not reduce Annual Payments restricted to future Opioid Remediation.
D. State-Subdivision Enforcement.
1. A Participating Subdivision shall not have enforcement rights against a Settling State in which it is located with respect to the Agreement or any Consent Judgment except: (1) as provided for in a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust with respect to intrastate allocation; or (2) in the absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust, as to allegations that: (a) the Settling State’s use of Abatement Accounts Fund monies were not used for uses similar to or in the nature of those uses contained in Exhibit E; or (b) a Settling State failed to pay funds directly from the Abatement Accounts Fund to a Participating Subdivision eligible to receive a block grant pursuant to subsection VI.E.2.b.
2. A Settling State shall have enforcement rights against a Participating Subdivision located in its territory: (1) as provided for in a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust; or (2) in the absence of a State-Subdivision Agreement, Allocation Statute, or Statutory Trust, as to allegations that the uses of Abatement Accounts Fund monies by Participating Subdivisions listed on Exhibit G were not for uses similar to or in the nature of those uses contained in Exhibit E.
3. As between Settling States and Participating Subdivisions, the above rights are contractual in nature and nothing herein is intended to limit, restrict, change, or alter any other existing rights under law.
E. Subdivision Payment Enforcement. A Participating Subdivision shall have the same right as a Settling State pursuant to subsection XII.F.4.a(4) to seek resolution of any failure by Janssen to make its required base and/or incentive payments in a Payment Year.
F. Other Dispute Resolution Terms.
1. Except as provided in subsection XII.C, the parties to a dispute shall promptly meet and confer in good faith to resolve any dispute. If the parties cannot resolve the dispute informally, and unless otherwise agreed in writing, they shall follow the remaining provisions of this subsection XII.F to resolve the dispute.
2. Except as provided in subsections XII.C and XII.F.4, disputes not resolved informally shall be resolved in either the court that entered the relevant Consent Judgment or, if no Consent Judgment was entered, a state or territorial court with jurisdiction located wherever the seat of state government is located. State court proceedings shall be governed by the rules and procedures of the forum. For the avoidance of doubt, disputes to be resolved in state court include, but are not limited to, the following:
45 revised July 30, 2021
a. disputes concerning whether expenditures qualify for Opioid Remediation; b. disputes between a Settling State and Participating Subdivisions located in such Settling State as provided by subsection XII.D, except to the extent the State-Subdivision Agreement provides for other dispute resolution mechanisms. For the avoidance of doubt, disputes between a Settling State and any Participating Subdivision shall not be considered National Disputes;
c. whether this Agreement and relevant Consent Judgment are binding under state law;
d. the extent of the Attorney General’s or other participating entity’s authority under state law, including the extent of the authority to release claims;
e. whether the requirements of a Bar, a Case-Specific Resolution, State- Specific Finality, Later Litigating Subdivision, Litigating Subdivision, or a Threshold Motion have been met; and
f. all other disputes not specifically identified in subsections XII.C and XII.F.4.
3. Any Party may request that the National Arbitration Panel provide an interpretation of any provision of the settlement that is relevant to the state court determination, and the National Arbitration Panel shall make reasonable best efforts to supply such interpretation within the earlier of thirty (30) days or the time period required by the state court proceedings. Any Party may submit that interpretation to the state court to the extent permitted by, and for such weight provided by, the state court’s rules and procedures. If requested by a Party, the National Arbitration Panel shall request that its interpretation be accepted in the form of an amicus curiae brief, and any attorneys’ fees and costs for preparing any such filing shall be paid for by the requesting Party.
4. National Disputes involving a Settling State, Participating Subdivision, and/or Janssen shall be resolved by a National Arbitration Panel. a. “National Disputes” are disputes that are exceptions to subsection XII.F.2’s presumption of resolution in state courts because they involve issues of interpretation of Agreement terms applicable to all Settling States without reference to a particular State’s law. Disputes between a State and any Participating Subdivisions shall not be considered National Disputes.
National Disputes are limited to the following:
(1) the amount of offset and/or credit attributable to Non-Settling States and Tribes;
(2) issues involving the scope and definition of “Product”; 46 revised July 30, 2021
(3) interpretation and application of the terms “Covered Conduct” and “Released Entities”;
(4) disputes over a given year’s payment or the payment of the Additional Restitution Amount to all Settling States (for the avoidance of doubt, disputes between a Settling State and Janssen over the amounts owed to only that State shall not be considered National Disputes);
(5) questions regarding the performance and/or removal of the Settlement Fund Administrator;
(6) disputes involving liability of successor entities; (7) disputes that require a determination of sufficient Subdivision and Special District participation to qualify for Incentives A, B, C, or D, as well as disputes over qualification for Participation Tiers; (8) disputes that require interpretation of Agreement terms (i) that concretely affect four (4) or more Settling States; and (ii) do not turn on unique definitions and interpretations under State law; and (9) any dispute subject to resolution under subsection XII.F.2 but for which all parties to the dispute agree to arbitration before the National Arbitration Panel under the provisions of this subsection XII.F.4.
b. The “National Arbitration Panel” shall be comprised of three (3) neutral arbitrators. One (1) arbitrator shall be chosen by Janssen, one (1) arbitrator shall be chosen by the Enforcement Committee with due input from Participating Subdivisions, and the third arbitrator shall be agreed upon by the first two (2) arbitrators. The membership of the National Arbitration Panel is intended to remain constant throughout the term of this Agreement, but in the event that replacements are required, the retiring arbitrator shall be replaced by the party that selected him/her. (1) The National Arbitration Panel shall make reasonable best efforts to decide all matters within one hundred eighty (180) days of filing, and in no event shall it take longer than one (1) year. (2) The National Arbitration Panel shall conduct all proceedings in a reasonably streamlined process consistent with an opportunity for the parties to be heard. Issues shall be resolved without the need for live witnesses where feasible, and with a presumption in favor of remote participation to minimize the burdens on the parties. (3) To the extent allowed under state law, a Settling State, Participating Subdivision, and (at any party’s request) the National 47 revised July 30, 2021
Arbitration Panel may certify to an appropriate state court any question of state law. The National Arbitration Panel shall be bound by a final state court determination of such a certified question. The time period for the arbitration shall be tolled during the course of the certification process.
(4) The arbitrators will give due deference to any authoritative interpretation of state law, including any declaratory judgment or similar relief obtained by a Settling State, Participating Subdivision, or Janssen on a state law issue.
(5) The decisions of the National Arbitration Panel shall be binding on Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, Janssen, and the Settlement Fund Administrator. In any proceeding before the National Arbitration Panel involving a dispute between a Settling State and Janssen whose resolution could prejudice the rights of a Participating Subdivision(s) or Participating Special District(s) in that Settling State, such Participating Subdivision(s) or Participating Special District(s) shall be allowed to file a statement of view in the proceeding.
c. Nothing herein shall be construed so as to limit or otherwise restrict a State from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in state court to protect the health, safety, or welfare of its citizens. d. Each party shall bear its own costs in any arbitration or court proceeding arising under this subsection XII.F. The costs for the arbitrators on the National Arbitration Panel shall be divided and paid equally by the disputing sides for each individual dispute, e.g., a dispute between Janssen and Setting States/Participating Subdivisions shall be split 50% by Janssen and 50% by the Settling States/Participating Subdivisions that are parties to the dispute; a dispute between a Settling State and a Participating Subdivision shall be split 50% by the Settling State and 50% by any Participating Subdivisions that are party to the dispute.
5. Prior to initiating an action to enforce pursuant to this subsection XII.F, the complaining party must:
a. Provide written notice to the Enforcement Committee of its complaint, including the provision of the Consent Judgment and/or Agreement that the practice appears to violate, as well as the basis for its interpretation of the disputed provision. The Enforcement Committee shall establish a reasonable process and timeline for obtaining additional information from the involved parties; provided, however, that the date the Enforcement Committee establishes for obtaining additional information from the parties shall not be more than forty-five (45) days following the notice. 48 revised July 30, 2021
The Enforcement Committee may advise the involved parties of its views on the complaint and/or seek to resolve the complaint informally. b. Wait to commence any enforcement action until thirty (30) days after the date that the Enforcement Committee establishes for obtaining additional information from the involved parties.
6. If the parties to a dispute cannot agree on the proper forum for resolution of the dispute under the provisions of subsections XII.F.2 or XII.F.4, a committee comprising the Enforcement Committee and sufficient representatives of Janssen such that the members of the Enforcement Committee have a majority of one (1) member will determine the forum where the dispute will be initiated within twenty-eight (28) days of receiving notification of the dispute relating to the proper forum. The forum identified by such committee shall be the sole forum for determining where the dispute shall be heard, and the committee’s identification of such forum shall not be entitled to deference by the forum selected.
G. No Effect. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted to limit the Settling State’s Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) or investigative subpoena authority, to the extent such authority exists under applicable state law and the CID or investigative subpoena is issued pursuant to such authority, and Janssen reserves all of its rights in connection with a CID or investigative subpoena issued pursuant to such authority.
XIII. Miscellaneous
A. No Admission. Janssen does not admit liability or wrongdoing. Neither this Agreement nor the Consent Judgments shall be considered, construed, or represented to be (1) an admission, concession, or evidence of liability or wrongdoing or (2) a waiver or any limitation of any defense otherwise available to Janssen.
B. Population of Subdivisions. The population figures for Subdivisions shall be the published U.S. Census Bureau’s population estimates for July 1, 2019, released May 2020. These population figures shall remain unchanged during the term of this Agreement.
C. Population of Special Districts. For any purpose in this Agreement in which the population of a Special District is used, other than the use of “Covered Special District”:
(a) School Districts’ population will be measured by the number of students enrolled who are eligible under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (“IDEA”) or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; (b) Health Districts’ and Hospital Districts’ population will be measured at 25% of discharges; and (c) all other Special Districts’ (including Fire Districts’ and Library Districts’) population will be measured at 10% of the population served.
D. Population Associated with Sheriffs. For any purpose in this Agreement in which the population associated with a lawsuit by a sheriff is used, the population will be measured at 20% of the capacity of the jail(s) operated by the sheriff. 49 revised July 30, 2021
E. Tax Reporting and Cooperation.
1. Upon request by Janssen, the Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and Participating Special Districts agree to perform such further acts and to execute and deliver such further documents as may be reasonably necessary for Janssen to establish the statements set forth in subsection VI.E.3 to the satisfaction of their tax advisors, their independent financial auditors, the Internal Revenue Service, or any other governmental authority, including as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.162-21(b)(3)(ii) and any subsequently proposed or finalized relevant regulations or administrative guidance.
2. Without limiting the generality of subsection VI.C.1, each Settling State, Participating Subdivision, and Participating Special District shall cooperate in good faith with Janssen with respect to any tax claim, dispute, investigation, audit, examination, contest, litigation, or other proceeding relating to this Agreement.
3. The Designated State, on behalf of all Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and Participating Special Districts, shall designate one of its officers or employees to act as the “appropriate official” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6050X-1(f)(1)(ii)(B) (the “Appropriate Official”).
4. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Janssen nor the Settling States, Participating Subdivisions, and Participating Special Districts make any warranty or representation to any Settling jurisdiction or Releasor as to the tax consequences of the payment of the Compensatory Restitution Amount (or any portion thereof).
F. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no portion of this Agreement shall provide any rights to, or be enforceable by, any person or entity that is not a Settling State or Released Entity. No Settling State may assign or otherwise convey any right to enforce any provision of this Agreement.
G. Calculation. Any figure or percentage referred to in this Agreement shall be carried to seven decimal places.
H. Construction. None of the Parties and no Participating Subdivision shall be considered to be the drafter of this Agreement or of any of its provisions for the purpose of any statute, case law, or rule of interpretation or construction that would or might cause any provision to be construed against the drafter of this Agreement. The headings of the provisions of this Agreement are not binding and are for reference only and do not limit, expand, or otherwise affect the contents or meaning of this Agreement.
I. Cooperation. Each Party and each Participating Subdivision agrees to use its best efforts and to cooperate with the other Parties and Participating Subdivisions to cause this Agreement and the Consent Judgments to become effective, to obtain all necessary approvals, consents and authorizations, if any, and to execute all documents and to take such other action as may be appropriate in connection herewith. Consistent with the foregoing, each Party and each Participating Subdivision agrees that it will not directly or indirectly assist or encourage any challenge to this Agreement or any Consent Judgment 50 revised July 30, 2021
by any other person, and will support the integrity and enforcement of the terms of this Agreement and the Consent Judgments.
J. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, its exhibits and any other attachments, including the attorneys’ fees and cost agreement in Exhibit R, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between and among the Parties and Participating Subdivisions relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes (1) all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter, whether written or oral and (2) all purportedly contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter.
K. Execution. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by different signatories on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall together be one and the same Agreement.

M. No Prevailing Party. The Parties each agree that they are not the prevailing party in this action, for purposes of any claim for fees, costs, or expenses as prevailing parties arising under common law or under the terms of any statute, because the Parties have reached a good faith settlement. The Parties each further waive any right to challenge or contest the validity of this Agreement on any ground, including, without limitation, that any term is unconstitutional or is preempted by, or in conflict with, any current or future law.
N. Non-Admissibility. The settlement negotiations resulting in this Agreement have been undertaken by the Parties and by certain representatives of the Participating Subdivisions in good faith and for settlement purposes only, and no evidence of negotiations or discussions underlying this Agreement shall be offered or received in evidence in any action or proceeding for any purpose.

R. Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Janssen and its respective successors and assigns.

Provided, however, in the event the modification, amendment, or alteration relates to injunctive relief, interstate allocation between the Settling States, intrastate allocation in a particular Settling State, or fees or costs of Settling States and Participating Subdivisions, then every Settling State and each Participating Subdivision affected by that modification, amendment, or alteration must assent in writing. Provided further that, in the event the modification, amendment, or alteration relates to injunctive relief, then such amendment, modification, or alteration of injunctive relief against Janssen will not be effective unless and until any Consent Judgment is modified by a court of competent jurisdiction, except as otherwise provided by the Injunctive Terms.
T. Termination.
1. Unless otherwise agreed to by Janssen and the Settling State in question, this Agreement and all of its terms (except subsection XIII.N and any other non- admissibility provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect) shall be canceled and terminated with respect to the Settling State, and the Agreement and all orders issued by the courts in the Settling State pursuant to the Agreement shall become null and void and of no effect if one or more of the following conditions applies:
a. A Consent Judgment approving this Agreement without modification of any of the Agreement’s terms has not been entered as to the Settling State by a court of competent jurisdiction on or before one hundred eighty (180) days after the Effective Date; or
b. This Agreement or the Consent Judgment as to that Settling State has been disapproved by a court of competent jurisdiction to which it was presented for approval and/or entry (or, in the event of an appeal from or review of a decision of such a court to approve this Agreement and the Consent Judgment, by the court hearing such appeal or conducting such review), and the time to appeal from such disapproval has expired, or, in the event of an appeal from such disapproval, the appeal has been dismissed or the disapproval has been affirmed by the court of last resort to which such appeal has been taken and such dismissal or disapproval has become no longer subject to further appeal (including, without limitation, review by the United States Supreme Court).
2. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to a Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions for whatever reason pursuant to subsection XIII.T.1, then:
a. An applicable statute of limitation or any similar time requirement (excluding any statute of repose) shall be tolled from the date the Settling State signed this Agreement until the later of the time permitted by applicable law or for one year from the date of such termination, with the effect that Janssen and the Settling State in question shall be in the same 54 revised July 30, 2021
position with respect to the statute of limitation as they were at the time the Settling State filed its action; and
b. Janssen and the Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions in question shall jointly move the relevant court of competent jurisdiction for an order reinstating the actions and claims dismissed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement governing dismissal, with the effect that Janssen and the Settling State and its Participating Subdivisions in question shall be in the same position with respect to those actions and claims as they were at the time the action or claim was stayed or dismissed.
3. Unless Janssen and the Enforcement Committee agree otherwise, this Agreement, with the exception of the Injunctive Relief Terms that have their own provisions on duration, shall terminate as to all Parties as of the Payment Date for Payment Year 9, provided that Janssen has performed its payment obligations under the Agreement as of that date. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, all releases under this Agreement will remain effective despite any termination under this paragraph.
U. Governing Law. Except (1) as otherwise provided in the Agreement or (2) as necessary, in the sole judgment of the National Arbitration Panel, to promote uniformity of interpretation for matters within the scope of the National Arbitration Panel’s authority, this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the respective laws of the Settling State, without regard to the conflict of law rules of such Settling State, that is seeking to enforce the Agreement against Janssen or against which Janssen is seeking enforcement. Notwithstanding any other provision in this subsection on governing law, any disputes relating to the Settlement Fund Escrow shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the law of the state where the escrow agent has its primary place of business.
