Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 14, 2014, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Jubilant Cadista Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Cadista Pharmaceuticals”), at the request of Jubilant Draximage Inc. (“Draximage”), we extended the maturity date of a $15,000,000 loan (the “Loan”) to Draximage from August 22, 2014 to August 31, 2015.

We had funded the Loan, in the second quarter of our fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, pursuant to a loan agreement, dated August 23, 2013 (the “Loan Agreement”), that Cadista Pharmaceuticals had entered into with Draximage. Jubilant Pharma Ltd., the direct parent of Draximage, reconfirmed its guarantee of the prompt payment and performance, when due, of all obligations of Draximage under the Loan Agreement in connection with the extension of the maturity date of the loan.

Other than the extension of the maturity date to August 31, 2015, the terms of the original Loan Agreement remain unmodified, including that we have the right to demand payment of all or any portion of the principal amount of the Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at any time during the term of the Loan upon 30 days’ prior notice to Draximage.

See “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our Fiscal Year ended March 31, 2014, for a more detailed description of the Loan Agreement.

In accordance with our policy and procedure with respect to the approval of related party transactions, a committee comprised of our independent directors, Messrs. Becker and Seth, reviewed and approved of the extension of the maturity date of the Loan from August 22, 2014 to August 31, 2015.
