• Following effectiveness of the Plan, certain Mallinckrodt subsidiaries will remain subject to an agreed-upon operating injunction with respect to the operation of their opioid business. • Resolution of Disputes with theU.S. Department of Justice andOther Governmental Parties Relating to Acthar Gel. Pursuant to the Scheme, on the Effective Date all claims ofU.S. Department of Justice and other governmental parties relating to Acthar Gel against Mallinckrodt are deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full against Mallinckrodt, and Mallinckrodt ceases to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which are then treated in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the settlement that is summarized below: • Mallinckrodt has reached an agreement with theU.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") and other governmental parties to settle a range of litigation matters and disputes relating to Acthar Gel (the "Governmental Acthar Settlement") including a Medicaid lawsuit with theCenters for Medicare and Medicaid Services , a related False Claims Act ("FCA") lawsuit inBoston , and anEastern District ofPennsylvania ("EDPA")FCA lawsuit principally relating to interactions of Acthar Gel's previous owner (Questcor Pharmaceuticals Inc. ) with an independent charitable foundation. Under the Governmental Acthar Settlement, which was conditioned upon Mallinckrodt commencing its chapter 11 proceeding and provides the distributions the applicable claimants will receive under the Plan, Mallinckrodt has agreed to pay$260.0 million to the DOJ and other parties over seven years and reset Acthar Gel's Medicaid rebate calculation as ofJuly 1, 2020 , such that state Medicaid programs will receive 100% rebates on Acthar Gel Medicaid sales, based on current Acthar Gel pricing. Also in connection with the Governmental Acthar Settlement, Mallinckrodt entered into a five-year corporate integrity agreement with theOffice of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services inMarch 2022 . As a result of these agreements, upon effectiveness of the Governmental Acthar Settlement in connection with the effectiveness of the Plan, theU.S. Government will drop its demand for approximately$640 million in retrospective Medicaid rebates for Acthar Gel and agree to dismiss theFCA lawsuit inBoston and the EDPA FCA lawsuit. Similarly, state and territory Attorneys General will also drop related lawsuits. In turn, Mallinckrodt will dismiss its appeal of theU.S. District Court for the District of Columbia's adverse decision in the Medicaid lawsuit, which was filed in theU.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit . • Mallinckrodt has entered into the Governmental Acthar Settlement with the DOJ and other governmental parties solely to move past these litigation matters and disputes and does not make any admission of liability or wrongdoing. • Modification of Mallinckrodt's Senior Secured Term Loans. Upon effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan, lenders holding allowed claims in respect of Mallinckrodt's senior secured term loans dueSeptember 2024 (the "2024 Term Loans") and its senior secured term loans dueFebruary 2025 (the "2025 Term Loans") will receive either (1) their pro rata share of new senior secured term loans in an amount equal to the then-remaining principal amount of such claims bearing interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 5.25% (with respect to the 2024 Term Loan) or LIBOR plus 5.50% (with respect to the 2025 Term Loan), maturing on the earlier ofSeptember 30, 2027 and 5.75 years after effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan and without any financial maintenance covenant, and payment in cash of an exit fee equal to 1.00% of such remaining principal amount or (2) payment in full of such remaining principal amount in cash and payment in cash of an exit fee equal to 0.50% of such remaining principal amount. • Repayment of the Mallinckrodt's Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. Upon effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan, all allowed claims under Mallinckrodt's senior secured revolving credit facility will be paid in full in cash, principally with the proceeds of newly incurred debt. • Reinstatement of Mallinckrodt's 10.00% First Lien Senior Secured Notes Due 2025. Upon effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan, Mallinckrodt's first lien senior secured notes due 2025 will be reinstated at existing rates and maturities as the applicable holders' purported make-whole claims were disallowed. • Modification of Mallinckrodt's 10.00% Second Lien Senior Secured Notes Due 2025. Upon effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan, lenders holding allowed claims in respect of Mallinckrodt's 10.00% second lien senior secured notes due 2025 will receive their pro rata share of new 10.00% second lien senior secured notes due 2025 that will have the same principal amount and other economic terms as the existing second lien senior secured notes. 2

• Restructuring of Mallinckrodt's Guaranteed Unsecured Notes. Upon effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan, holders of allowed claims in respect of Mallinckrodt's 5.75% senior notes due 2022, 5.625% senior notes due 2023 and 5.50% senior notes due 2025 (the "Guaranteed Unsecured Notes") will receive their pro rata share of$375.0 million of new 10.00% second lien senior secured notes due seven years after effectiveness of the Scheme and the Plan and 100% of the new Mallinckrodt ordinary shares, subject to dilution by the warrants described above and Mallinckrodt's management incentive plan. • Resolution of Other Remaining Claims. Pursuant to the Scheme, on the Effective Date, trade claims and other general unsecured claims, including the claims of the holders of the 4.75% senior notes dueApril 2023 , against Mallinckrodt are deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full, and Mallinckrodt ceases to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which are then treated in accordance with the Plan, which provides for the holders of such claims to share in$135.0 million in cash, plus other potential consideration, in accordance with the allocations as prescribed in the Plan. • Cancellation of the Existing Shares. Pursuant to the Scheme, on the Effective Date the members of Mallinckrodt receive no distribution and all of the existing ordinary shares of Mallinckrodt and all rights attaching or relating thereto will be cancelled.
