by the Texas MDL Court,In re: Texas Opioid Litigation, MDL No. 2018-

federal MDL common benefit fund.

3. The State of Texas and the Texas Political Subdivisions, and their
respective attorneys, agree that all fees — whether contingent, hourly,
fixed or otherwise — owed by the Texas Political Subdivisions shall be
paid out of the National Fund or as otherwise provided for herein to the

District Court of Harris County, Texas pursuant to its past and future

the funds to be deposited in the Texas Opioid Fee and Expense Fund
shall be 9.3925% of the combined Texas Political Subdivision and
Texas Abatement Fund portions of each payment(annual or otherwise)
to the State of Texas for that settlement, plus expenses from the
National Fund, and shall be sought by Texas Political Subdivision
Counsel initially through the National Fund. The Texas Political
Subdivisions' percentage share of fees and expenses from the National
Fund shall be directed to the Texas Opioid Fee and Expense Fund in
the Texas MDL, as soon as is practical, for allocation and distribution
in accordance with the guidelines herein.
5. If the National Fund share to the Texas Political Subdivisions is
insufficient to cover the guaranteed 9.3925%, plus expenses from the
National Fund,per subsection 4, immediately supra, or if payment from
the National Fund is not received within 12 months after the date the
8
first payment is made by the Defendants pursuant to the settlement,then
the Texas Political Subdivisions shall recover up to 12.5% of the Texas
Political Subdivision Share to make up any difference.
6. If the National Fund and the Texas Political Subdivision share are
insufficient to cover the guaranteed 9.3925%, plus expenses from the
National Fund, or if payment from the National Fund is not received
within 12 months after the date the first payment is made by the
Defendants pursuant to the settlement, then the Texas Political
Subdivisions shall recover up to 8.75% of the Abatement Fund Share
to make up any difference. In no event shall the Texas Political
Subdivision share exceed 9.3925% of the combined Texas Political
Subdivision and Texas Abatement Fund portions of any settlement,
plus expenses from the National Fund. In the event that any payment
is received from the National Fund such that the total amount in fees
and expenses exceeds 9.3925%, the Texas Political Subdivisions shall
return any amounts received greater than 9.3925% of the combined
Texas Political Subdivision and Texas Abatement Fund portions to
those respective Funds.
9
7. For each settlement utilizing a National Fund, the Texas Political
Subdivisions need only make one attempt at seeking fees and expenses
there.
8. The total amount of the Texas Opioid Fee and Expense Fund shall be
reduced proportionally, according to the agreed upon allocation of the
Texas Subdivision Fund, for any Texas litigating Political Subdivision
that (1) fails to enter the settlement; and (2) was filed in Texas state
court, and was transferred to the Texas MDL (or removed before or
during transfer to the Texas MDL) as of the execution date of this
Agreement.
D. The Texas Opioid Council and Texas Abatement Fund
The Texas Opioid Council and Texas Abatement Fund is described in detail
at Exhibit A, incorporated herein by reference.
E. Settlement Negotiations
1. The State and Negotiating Committee agree to inform each other in
advance of any negotiations relating to a Texas-only settlement with a
Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participant that includes both the State and
its Political Subdivisions and shall provide each other the opportunity to
participate in all such negotiations. Any Texas-only Settlement agreed to
with the State and Negotiating Committee shall be subject to the approval
10
of a majority of litigating Political Subdivisions. The Parties further agree
to keep each other reasonably informed of all other global settlement
negotiations with Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants and to include
the Negotiating Committee or designees. Neither this provision, nor any
other, shall be construed to state or imply that either the State or the
Negotiating Committee is unauthorized to engage in settlement
negotiations with Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants without prior
consent or contemporaneous participation of the other, or that either party
is entitled to participate as an active or direct participant in settlement
negotiations with the other. Rather, while the State's and Negotiation
Committee's efforts to achieve worthwhile settlements are to be
collaborative, incremental stages need not be so.
2. Any Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) shall be subject to the approval
and jurisdiction of the Texas MDL Court.
3. As this is a Texas-specific effort, the Committee shall be Chaired by the
Attorney General. However, the Attorney General, or his designees, shall
endeavor to coordinate any publicity or other efforts to speak publicly with
the other Committee Members.
4. The State of Texas, the Texas MDL Plaintiff's Steering Committee
representatives, or the Political Subdivision representatives may withdraw
11
from coordinated Settlement discussions detailed in this Section upon 10
business days' written notice to the remaining Committee Members and .1
counsel for any affected Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participant. The
withdrawal of any Member releases the remaining Committee Members
from the restrictions and obligations in this Section.
5. The obligations in this Section shall not affect any Party's right to proceed
with trial or, within 30 days of the date upon which a trial involving that
Party's claims against a specific Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participant
is scheduled to begin, reach a case specific resolution with that particular
Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participant.
F. Amendments
The Parties agree to make such amendments as necessary to implement the
intent of this agreement.
Acknowledgment of Agreement
We, the undersigned, have participated in the drafting of the above Texas
Term Sheet, including consideration based on comments solicited from Political
Subdivisions. This document has been collaboratively drafted to maintain all
individual claims while allowing the State and its Political Subdivisions to cooperate
in exploring all possible means of resolution. Nothing in this agreement binds any
party to any specific outcome. Any resolution under this document will require
12
acceptance by the State of Texas and a majority of the Litigating Political
Subdivisions.
We, the undersigned, hereby accept the STATE OF TEXAS AND TEXAS
POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS' OPIOID ABATEMENT FUND COUNCIL AND
SETTLEMENT ALLOCATION TERM SHEET. We understand that the purpose of
this Texas Term Sheet is to permit collaboration between the State of Texas and
Political Subdivisions to explore and potentially effectuate earlier resolution of the
Opioid Litigation against Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants. We also
understand that an additional purpose is to create an effective means of distributing
any potential settlement funds obtained under this Texas Term Sheet between the
State of Texas and Political Subdivisions in a manner and means that would promote
an effective and meaningful use of the funds in abating the opioid epidemic
throughout Texas.

Settlement Agreement, or any Bankruptcy Settlement for Texas control the authority of
the Council and the Council may not stray outside the bounds of the authority and power
vested by such settlements. Should the Council require legal assistance in determining
their authority, the Council may direct the executive director to seek legal advice from the
Attorney General to clarify the issue.
D. Operation and Expenses
The independent administrator will set aside up to one (1)percent of the settlement funds for the
administration of the Council for reasonable costs and expenses of operating the foregoing duties,
including educational activities.
1. Executive Director
The Comptroller will employ the executive director of the Council and other personnel as
necessary to administer the duties of the Council and carry out the functions of the Council.
The executive director must have at least 10 years of experience in government or public
administration and is classified as a Director V/B30 under the State Auditor's State
Classification. The Comptroller will pay the salaries of the Council employees from the
3
one(1)percent of the settlement funds set aside for the administration of the Council. The
Comptroller will request funds from the Texas Abatement Fund Point of Contact.
2. Travel Reimbursement
A person appointed to the Council is entitled to reimbursement for the travel expenses
incurred in attending Council duties. A member of the Council may be reimbursed for
actual expenses for meals, lodging, transportation, and incidental expenses in accordance
with travel rates set by the federal General Services Administration.
II. Duties/Roles
It is the duty of the Council to determine and approve the opioid abatement strategies and funding
awards.
A. Apprnved Abatement Strategies
The Council will develop the approved Texas list of abatement strategies based on but not limited
to the existing national list of opioid abatement strategies (see attached Appendix A) for
implementing the Texas Abatement Fund.
1. The Council shall only approve strategies which are evidence-informed strategies.
2. The Texas list of abatement strategies must be approved by majority vote. The majority
vote must include a majority from both sides of the statewide members and regional
members in order to be approved,e.g., at least four(4)of six(6)members on each side.
B. Texas Abatement Fund Point of Contact
The Council will determine a single point of contact called the Abatement Fund Point of Contact
(POC) to be established as the sole entity authorized to receive requests for funds and approve
expenditures in Texas and order the release of funds from the Texas Abatement Fund by the
independent administrator. The POC may be an independent third party selected by the Council
with expertise in banking or financial management. The POC will manage the Opioid Council
Bank Account(Account). Upon a vote,the Council will direct the POC to contact the independent
administrator to release funds to the Account. The Account is outside the State Treasury and not
managed by any state or local officials. The POC is responsible for payments to the qualified
entities selected by the Council for abatement fund awards. The POC will submit a monthly
financial statement on the Account to the Council.
C. Auditor
An independent auditor appointed by the Council will perform an audit on the Account on an
annual basis and report its findings, if any, to the Council.
D. Funding Allocation
4
The Council is the sole decision-maker on the funding allocation process of the abatement funds.
The Council will develop the application and award process based on the parameters outlined
below. An entity seeking funds from the Council must apply for funds; no funds will be awarded
without an application. The executive director and personnel may assist the Council in gathering
and compiling the applications for consideration; however, the Council members are the sole
decision-makers of awards and funding determination. The Council will use the following
processes to award funds:
1. Statewide Funds. The Council will consider, adopt and approve the allocation
methodology attached as Exhibit C, based upon population health data and prevalence
of opioid incidences, at the Council's initial meeting. Adoption of such methodology
will allow each Region to customize the approved abatement strategies to fit its
communities' needs. The statewide regional funds will account for seventy-five (75)
percent of the total overall funds, less the one (1) percent administrative expense
described herein.
2. Targeted Funds. Each Region shall reserve twenty-five (25) percent of the overall
funds, for targeted interventions in the specific Region as identified by opioid incidence
data. The Council must approve on an annual basis the uses for the targeted abatement
strategies and applications available to every Region, including education and outreach
programs. Each Region without approved uses for the targeted funds from the Council,
based upon a greater percentage of opioid incidents compared to its population, is
subject to transfer of all or a portion of the targeted funds for that Region for uses based
upon all Regions' targeted funding needs as approved by the Council on an annual basis.
3. Annual Allocation. Statewide regional funds and targeted funds will be allocated on an
annual basis. If a Region lapses its funds, the funds will be reallocated based on all
Regions' funding needs.
E. Appeal Process
The Council will establish an appeal process to permit the applicants for funding (state or
subdivisions) to challenge decisions by the Council-designated point of contact on requests for
funds or expenditures.
1. To challenge a decision by the designated point of contact, the State or a subdivision
must file an appeal with the Council within thirty(30)days of the decision. The Council
then has thirty(30) days to consider and rule on the appeal.
2. If the Council denies the appeal,the party may file an appeal with the state district court
of record where the final opioid judgment or Master Settlement Agreement is filed. The
Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and Rules of Evidence will govern these proceedings.
The Council may request representation from the Attorney General in these proceedings.
5
In making its determination, the state district court shall apply the same clear error
standards contained herein that the Council must follow when rendering its decision.
3. The state district court will make the final decision and the decision is not appealable.
4. Challenges will be limited and subject to penalty if abused.
5. Attorneys' fees and costs are not recoverable in these appeals.
F. Education
The Council may determine that a percentage of the funds in the Abatement Fund from the targeted
funds be used to develop an education and outreach program to provide materials on the
consequences of opioid drug use, prevention and interventions. Any material developed will
include online resources and toolkits for communities.
