Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Litigation From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company would accrue a liability for the estimated loss. Because of uncertainties related to claims and litigation, accruals are based on the Company’s best estimates, utilizing all available information. On a periodic basis, as additional information becomes available, or based on specific events such as the outcome of litigation or settlement of claims, the Company may reassess the potential liability related to these matters and may revise these estimates, which could result in material adverse adjustments to the Company’s operating results. At June 30, 2024, there were no potential material losses from claims, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceedings that the Company determined were probable of occurring.

The filing of the lawsuit triggered a stay of FDA approval of the ANDA for up to 30 months in accordance with the U.S. Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (the “Hatch-Waxman Act”). A bench trial is scheduled to begin on July 28, 2025. Government Matters The Company has received a subpoena and civil investigative demands from U.S. state and federal governmental authorities for documents related to VIVITROL.

In August 2023, the NY Southern District Court confirmed the final arbitral award and declined to modify the final award to increase the damages awarded thereunder. In September 2023, Acorda filed a notice of appeal of the NY Southern District Court decision to the Federal Circuit Court, and the Company filed a motion to transfer the appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. In January 2024, the Federal Circuit Court denied without prejudice the Company’s motion to transfer the appeal and instructed the parties to brief the jurisdictional question as part of the merits appeal. Briefing in the Federal Circuit Court is complete, and the matter is pending decision. While the outcome of any of these proceedings cannot be accurately predicted, the Company does not believe the ultimate resolution of any of these existing proceedings would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition. Guarantees In connection with the Separation, the Company entered into an assignment and assumption of lease agreement (the “Assignment”) pursuant to which Alkermes US assigned to Mural US an operating lease for approximately 180,000 square feet of corporate office space, administrative areas and laboratories located at 852 Winter Street in Waltham, Massachusetts (the “852 Winter Street Lease”), which is described in more detail in Note 10, Leases in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Annual Report. Although all of the rights, title and interest in, to and under the 852 Winter Street Lease were transferred to Mural US as of November 15, 2023 pursuant to the Assignment, the Company ratified and reaffirmed for the remainder of the lease term its guarantor obligations in respect of the lease under that certain Guaranty dated as of May 16, 2014. This lease expires in 2026 and includes a tenant option to extend the term for an additional five-year period. Upon completion of the Separation, the Assignment was accounted for as a termination of the original lease and the Company de-recognized the right-of-use asset and lease liability related to the 852 Winter Street Lease. At June 30, 2024, the fair value of the guarantee was not material to the Company.
