NOTE 2 – Certain transactions:

The Company has entered into alliances and other arrangements with third parties to acquire rights to products it does not have, to access markets it does not operate in and to otherwise share development costs or business risks. The Company’s most significant agreements of this nature are summarized below.

Alvotech Partnership

In August 2020, Teva entered into an exclusive partnership agreement with biopharmaceutical company Alvotech for the commercialization in the U.S. of five biosimilar product candidates. The initial pipeline for this partnership contains biosimilar candidates addressing multiple therapeutic areas. Under this agreement, Alvotech will be responsible for the development, registration and supply of the biosimilar product candidates and Teva will exclusively commercialize the products in the United States. The agreement includes an upfront payment payable by Teva, which was paid in the third quarter of 2020. Additional development and commercial milestone payments of up to $490 million, as well as royalty payments,

may be

payable by Teva over the next few years. Teva and Alvotech will share profit from the commercialization of the biosimilars.

Eli Lilly and Alder BioPharmaceuticals

In December 2018, Teva entered into an agreement with Eli Lilly, resolving the European Patent Office opposition they had filed against Teva’s AJOVY

patents. The settlement agreement with Lilly also resolved Lilly’s action to revoke the patent protecting AJOVY in the United Kingdom.

On January 8, 2018, Teva signed a global license agreement with Alder BioPharmaceuticals (“Alder”). The agreement validates Teva’s intellectual property and resolves Alder’s opposition to Teva’s European patent with respect to anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antibodies, including the withdrawal of Alder’s appeal before the European Patent Office. Under the terms of the agreement, Alder will receive a non-exclusive license to Teva’s anti-CGRP antibodies patent portfolio to develop, manufacture and commercialize eptinezumab in the United States and worldwide, excluding Japan and Korea. Teva received a

$25

million upfront payment that was recognized as revenue during the first quarter of 2018, and a

$25

million milestone payment in March 2020 that was recognized as revenue in the first quarter of 2020. The agreement stipulates additional development and commercial milestone payments to Teva of up to

$150

million, as well as future royalties.

AUSTEDO

On September 19, 2017, Teva entered into a partnership agreement with Nuvelution Pharma, Inc. (“Nuvelution”) for development of AUSTEDO for the treatment of Tourette syndrome in pediatric patients in the United States. There are no further plans in this indication following clinical trial results received in February 2020, which failed to meet their primary endpoints.

Otsuka

On May 12, 2017, Teva entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“Otsuka”), providing Otsuka with an exclusive license to conduct phase 2 and 3 clinical trials for AJOVY in Japan and, if approved, to commercialize the product in Japan. Otsuka paid Teva an upfront payment of $50

million in consideration for the transaction. Results for these trials were received in January 2020 indicating that primary and secondary endpoints were achieved and that no clinically significant adverse events were observed in subjects. In the third quarter of 2020, Otsuka submitted an application to obtain manufacturing and marketing approval for AJOVY in Japan and, as a result, paid Teva a milestone payment of $15 million. Teva may receive additional milestone payments upon achievement of certain revenue targets. Otsuka will also pay Teva royalties on AJOVY sales in Japan.

Celltrion

In October 2016, Teva and Celltrion, Inc. (“Celltrion”) entered into a collaborative agreement to commercialize TRUXIMA

and HERZUMA

, two biosimilar products for the U.S. and Canadian markets. Teva paid Celltrion

$160

million, of which Teva received an aggregate credit of

$60

million as of September 30, 2020. Teva and Celltrion share the profit from the commercialization of these products. These two products, TRUXIMA and HERZUMA, were approved by the FDA in November and December 2018, respectively and were launched in the United States in November 2019 and March 2020, respectively.

Regeneron

In September 2016, Teva and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Regeneron”) entered into a collaborative agreement to develop and commercialize Regeneron’s pain medication product, fasinumab. Teva and Regeneron share equally in the global commercial rights to this product, as well as ongoing associated R&D costs of approximately $1 billion. Teva made an upfront payment of $250 million to Regeneron in the third quarter of

2016 and additional payments for achievement of development milestones in an aggregate amount of $120 million were paid during 2017 and 2018. The agreement stipulates additional development and commercial milestone payments of up to $2,230 million, as well as future royalties.

Tel-Aviv

Headquarters Lease Agreement

At the end of the third quarter of 2020, after obtaining the right to use the building, Teva began transitioning its corporate headquarters to a consolidated site in Tel-Aviv, Israel. Teva has an operating lease for the office space in Tel Aviv for an initial term of twelve and a half years, with an option for three extensions. Teva estimates that the reasonably certain holding period of the lease for accounting purposes is twelve and a half years. As of September 30, 2020, Teva booked

$74 million as operating lease

right-of-use

and $66 million as operating lease liability.

Assets and Liabilities Held For Sale:

Certain assets of Teva’s business venture in Japan

Teva operates its business in Japan, which is part of Teva’s International Market segment, through a business venture with The Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”), in which Teva owns a 51% stake and Takeda owns the remaining 49%.

During the second quarter of 2020, Teva and Takeda decided to sell the majority of the business venture’s generic and operational assets. The purchase agreement was signed in July 2020 and Teva expects this transaction to close by early 2021. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions.

Teva is accounting for the business venture assets and liabilities to be sold as held for sale and determined that the fair value less cost to sell did not exceed the carrying value, resulting in an impairment charge of $261 million in other assets impairments, restructuring

and

other items recognized in the second quarter of 2020.

Teva determined that the sale of this portion of the Teva-Takeda business venture, whether pending or completed, does not constitute a strategic shift for Teva, and does not and will not have a major effect on its operations and financial results. Accordingly, the operations associated with the transactions are not reported as discontinued operations.

Assets held for sale include the Teva-Takeda business venture assets that are held for sale and other manufacturing assets that are expected to be sold within the next year.

The table below summarizes all Teva assets included as held for sale as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
