Product Liability Litigation. Section 3.10 of the Seller's Disclosure Schedule lists each (a) product liability claim (including any claim based on strict products liability, negligence, other tort theories, breach of express or implied warranty) which has been asserted in writing against the Seller relating to the Phos-Lo Products since January 1, 1993; (b) judgment, order, decree, stipulation or injunction of any Governmental Authority, or any formal investigation conducted by any Governmental Authority and any subpoena in connection therewith, since January 1, 1999 that specifically names the Seller and relates to the Product Line Operations; and (c) action, suit or proceeding by or before any Governmental Authority to which the Seller is or has been a party since January 1, 1999 that relates to the Product Line Operations.

Product Liability Litigation. Silzone Litigation and Insurance Receivables: The Borrower has been sued in various jurisdictions beginning in March 2000 by some patients who received a heart valve product with Silzone coating, which the Borrower stopped selling in January 2000. The Borrower has vigorously defended against the claims that have been asserted and will continue to do so with respect to any remaining claims. The Borrower's outstanding Silzone cases consist of one class action in Ontario that has been appealed by the plaintiffs, one individual case in Ontario and one individual case filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona. In June 2012, the Ontario Court ruled in the Borrower's favor on all nine common class issues in a class action involving Silzone patients, and the case was dismissed. In September 2012, counsel for the class filed an appeal with the Court of Appeal for the Province of Ontario and filed their initial appellate brief on February 28, 2013. The Borrower is scheduled to file its responsive brief in August 2013, and the appeal will likely be heard in November 2013. The individual case in Ontario requests damages in excess of $1 million (claiming unspecified special damages, health care costs and interest) and the individual case in Arizona requests damages in excess of seventy-five thousand dollars. Based on the Borrower’s historical experience, the amount ultimately paid, if any, often does not bear any relationship to the amount claimed. The Borrower has recorded an accrual for probable legal costs, settlements and judgments for Silzone related litigation. The Borrower is not aware of any unasserted claims related to Silzone-coated products. For all Silzone legal costs incurred, the Borrower records insurance receivables for the amounts that it expects to recover based on its assessment of the specific insurance policies, the nature of the claim and the Borrower’s experience with similar claims. The Borrower’s current and final insurance layer for Silzone claims consists of $13 million of remaining coverage with two insurance carriers. To the extent that the Borrower’s future Silzone costs (the material components of which are settlements, judgments, legal fees and other related defense costs) exceed its remaining insurance coverage, the Borrower would be responsible for such costs. The following table summarizes the Borrower’s Silzone legal accrual and related insurance receivable at March 30, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (in millions): Mar...
