The Company, through its Adapt Pharma subsidiaries (collectively, “Adapt”), filed complaints beginning in 2016 against Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd. (“Teva”) for patent infringement, relating to Teva’s abbreviated new drug applications (“ANDAs”) seeking to market generic NARCAN® (naloxone hydrochloride) Nasal Spray 4mg/spray.

The Company intends to appeal the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
