 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Item&nbsp;1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Arrangement Agreement </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On
November&nbsp;18, 2013, Patheon Inc., a Canadian corporation (the &#147;<U>Company</U>&#148;), entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the &#147;<U>Arrangement Agreement</U>&#148;) with JLL/Delta Patheon Holdings, L.P., a limited partnership
(&#147;<U>Newco</U>&#148;) under which Patheon would be taken private pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement (the &#147;<U>Arrangement</U>&#148;) under the <I>Canada Business Corporations Act</I>. Newco is sponsored by an entity controlled
by JLL Partners, Inc. (&#147;<U>JLL</U>&#148;) and Koninklijke DSM N.V. (&#147;<U>DSM</U>&#148;). Affiliates of JLL currently own 55.7% of the restricted voting shares of Patheon (the &#147;<U>Restricted Voting Shares</U>&#148;) and all of the
outstanding class I preferred shares, series D of Patheon (the &#147;<U>Preferred Shares</U>&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Arrangement Agreement
contemplates that Newco will acquire, directly or indirectly, all of the Restricted Voting Shares, including those held by affiliates of JLL, for cash consideration of US$9.32 per share (the &#147;<U>Cash Consideration</U>&#148;). In addition, all
of the Preferred Shares will be purchased for nominal consideration and cancelled. The Cash Consideration will be paid in US dollars at closing, and is equivalent to approximately C$9.72 per share (based on the daily noon exchange rate of the Bank
of Canada on November&nbsp;18, 2013), which represents a 64% premium to the closing price of the Restricted Voting Shares on November&nbsp;18, 2013 and a premium of 73% to the volume weighted average trading price of the Restricted Voting Shares on
the TSX over the past 20 trading days. The transaction provides total consideration to shareholders other than JLL affiliates of approximately US$582 million and implies an equity value for Patheon of approximately US$1.4 billion. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As part of the transaction, the limited partners of the JLL-affiliated investment fund that indirectly owns 55.7% of the Restricted Voting
Shares will also receive the same Cash Consideration per Restricted Voting Share as is provided to the minority shareholders of Patheon. The transaction will result in Cash Consideration to all JLL affiliates of approximately US$732 million. As part
of the transaction, the general and limited partners of such investment fund will make indirect investments in Newco of approximately US$60 million and US$50 million, in aggregate, respectively. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with the Arrangement, James C. Mullen, the Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer, has entered into an Option Waiver and
Termination Agreement with the Company pursuant to which 4,000,000 of his issued and outstanding options to purchase Restricted Voting Shares will be voluntarily cancelled immediately prior to the closing of the Arrangement, but subject to the
closing of the Arrangement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The implementation of the Arrangement will be subject to shareholder approval at a special meeting of holders
of Restricted Voting Shares (the &#147;<U>Special Meeting</U>&#148;), which is expected to be held as early as possible in calendar 2014. The transaction will constitute a &#147;business combination&#148; for the purposes of Multilateral Instruments
61-101 &#150; <I>Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions</I>, and the implementation of the Arrangement will be subject to approval by a majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting by holders of Restricted Voting Shares
other than affiliates of JLL and certain members of Patheon&#146;s management (the &#147;<U>Minority Shares</U>&#148;), in addition to approval by 66<SUP STYLE="vertical-align:top">&nbsp;2</SUP>&#8260;<SUB STYLE="vertical-align:bottom">3</SUB>% of
all votes cast at the Special Meeting by holders of Restricted Voting Shares. The transaction is also subject to approval by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, in addition to regulatory approvals and certain closing conditions customary in
transactions of this nature. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The transaction will be financed through a combination of committed debt and equity financing, subject to
the terms of those commitments. The debt financing of US$1.65 billion has been committed by J.P. Morgan, UBS, Jefferies, Morgan Stanley and KeyBank. The equity financing includes an aggregate contribution of US$489 million from entities affiliated
with JLL, certain co-investors and management, as well as DSM&#146;s contribution of its existing pharmaceutical products business. Patheon has also received from affiliates of JLL and DSM a limited guarantee of certain obligations of Newco under
the transaction. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Arrangement Agreement provides for, among other things, a non-solicitation covenant on the part of Patheon (subject
to customary fiduciary out provisions). The Arrangement Agreement also provides Newco with a right to match potential third party proposals received by Patheon. Patheon is permitted to terminate the Arrangement Agreement in certain circumstances,
including to allow Patheon to accept a superior proposal subject to fulfilling certain conditions. Those conditions include the payment to Newco of a termination fee of US$23.64 million under certain circumstances. In addition, Patheon is entitled
to a termination fee from Newco in certain circumstances. Such termination fee is either US$49.26 million or US$24.63 million, depending on the circumstances of termination. </P>

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Arrangement Agreement
On
November 18, 2013, Patheon Inc., a Canadian corporation (the "
Company
"), entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the "
Arrangement Agreement
") with JLL/Delta Patheon Holdings, L.P., a limited partnership
("
Newco
") under which Patheon would be taken private pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement (the "
Arrangement
") under the
Canada Business Corporations Act
. Newco is sponsored by an entity controlled
by JLL Partners, Inc. ("
JLL
") and Koninklijke DSM N.V. ("
DSM
"). Affiliates of JLL currently own 55.7% of the restricted voting shares of Patheon (the "
Restricted Voting Shares
") and all of the
outstanding class I preferred shares, series D of Patheon (the "
Preferred Shares
").
The Arrangement Agreement
contemplates that Newco will acquire, directly or indirectly, all of the Restricted Voting Shares, including those held by affiliates of JLL, for cash consideration of US$9.32 per share (the "
Cash Consideration
"). In addition, all
of the Preferred Shares will be purchased for nominal consideration and cancelled. The Cash Consideration will be paid in US dollars at closing, and is equivalent to approximately C$9.72 per share (based on the daily noon exchange rate of the Bank
of Canada on November 18, 2013), which represents a 64% premium to the closing price of the Restricted Voting Shares on November 18, 2013 and a premium of 73% to the volume weighted average trading price of the Restricted Voting Shares on
the TSX over the past 20 trading days. The transaction provides total consideration to shareholders other than JLL affiliates of approximately US$582 million and implies an equity value for Patheon of approximately US$1.4 billion.
As part of the transaction, the limited partners of the JLL-affiliated investment fund that indirectly owns 55.7% of the Restricted Voting
Shares will also receive the same Cash Consideration per Restricted Voting Share as is provided to the minority shareholders of Patheon. The transaction will result in Cash Consideration to all JLL affiliates of approximately US$732 million. As part
of the transaction, the general and limited partners of such investment fund will make indirect investments in Newco of approximately US$60 million and US$50 million, in aggregate, respectively.
In connection with the Arrangement, James C. Mullen, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, has entered into an Option Waiver and
Termination Agreement with the Company pursuant to which 4,000,000 of his issued and outstanding options to purchase Restricted Voting Shares will be voluntarily cancelled immediately prior to the closing of the Arrangement, but subject to the
closing of the Arrangement.
The implementation of the Arrangement will be subject to shareholder approval at a special meeting of holders
of Restricted Voting Shares (the "
Special Meeting
"), which is expected to be held as early as possible in calendar 2014. The transaction will constitute a "business combination" for the purposes of Multilateral Instruments
61-101 –
Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions
, and the implementation of the Arrangement will be subject to approval by a majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting by holders of Restricted Voting Shares
other than affiliates of JLL and certain members of Patheon's management (the "
Minority Shares
"), in addition to approval by 66
2
⁄
3
% of
all votes cast at the Special Meeting by holders of Restricted Voting Shares. The transaction is also subject to approval by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, in addition to regulatory approvals and certain closing conditions customary in
transactions of this nature.
The transaction will be financed through a combination of committed debt and equity financing, subject to
the terms of those commitments. The debt financing of US$1.65 billion has been committed by J.P. Morgan, UBS, Jefferies, Morgan Stanley and KeyBank. The equity financing includes an aggregate contribution of US$489 million from entities affiliated
with JLL, certain co-investors and management, as well as DSM's contribution of its existing pharmaceutical products business. Patheon has also received from affiliates of JLL and DSM a limited guarantee of certain obligations of Newco under
the transaction.
The Arrangement Agreement provides for, among other things, a non-solicitation covenant on the part of Patheon (subject
to customary fiduciary out provisions). The Arrangement Agreement also provides Newco with a right to match potential third party proposals received by Patheon. Patheon is permitted to terminate the Arrangement Agreement in certain circumstances,
including to allow Patheon to accept a superior proposal subject to fulfilling certain conditions. Those conditions include the payment to Newco of a termination fee of US$23.64 million under certain circumstances. In addition, Patheon is entitled
to a termination fee from Newco in certain circumstances. Such termination fee is either US$49.26 million or US$24.63 million, depending on the circumstances of termination.

The foregoing description of the Arrangement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Arrangement Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated into this report by reference.
The Arrangement Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended
to provide any other factual information about the Company. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Arrangement Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of the specific dates therein, were solely for the
benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the
Arrangement Agreement. The representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the agreement instead of establishing those matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of
materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third party beneficiaries under the Arrangement Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any
descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Newco or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and
warranties may change after the date of the Arrangement Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company's public disclosures.
Voting and Support Agreements
JLL
Patheon Holdings, LLC and all of the directors and executive officers of the Company who hold Restricted Voting Shares have entered into voting and support agreements with the Company and Newco pursuant to which, among other things, they have agreed
to vote, or cause to be voted, Restricted Voting Shares beneficially owned or controlled by such persons in favor of the Arrangement (the "
Voting Agreements
"). As a result, holders of approximately 66.08% of the Restricted Voting
Shares and 20.45% of the Minority Shares have agreed to vote their Restricted Voting Shares in favor of the proposed transaction.
The
Voting Agreements terminate upon the earliest of: (i) mutual agreement; (ii) the date of termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with its terms or (iii) the effective time of the Arrangement.
The foregoing description of the Voting Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting
Agreement, the version entered into by JLL Patheon Holdings, LLC which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein and the form of which for all other parties entering into a Voting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.2
hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
Equity Commitment Letter
Newco has received equity financing commitments for the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement, the aggregate proceeds of which will be
used by Newco to fund a portion of its obligations under the Arrangement Agreement. JLL Partners VI, L.P., JLL Partners Fund V, L.P. and JLL Associates V (Patheon), L.P. have committed to capitalize JLL Patheon Co-Investment Fund, L.P. ("
JLL
Holdco
") with an aggregate equity contribution in an amount of US$310 million, and JLL Holdco has committed to capitalize Newco with an equity contribution in an amount of US$462 million, in each case on or prior to the time specified in
the Arrangement Agreement and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter, dated as of November 18, 2013 (the "
Equity Commitment Letter
"). The Company is also an express third party
beneficiary of the Equity Commitment Letter, subject to the limitations provided for in the Equity Commitment Letter.
The foregoing
description of the Equity Commitment Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Equity Commitment Letter, which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Patheon and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the
solicitation of proxies from the securityholders of Patheon in connection with the proposed transaction. Information about Patheon and its directors and executive officers, including their ownership of Patheon securities, is set forth in the proxy
statement for Patheon's 2013 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders, which was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2013, and on SEDAR in Canada on February 27, 2013, as supplemented by other Patheon filings with the SEC and
Canadian securities regulators. Investors and securityholders may obtain additional information regarding the direct and indirect interests of Patheon and its directors and executive officers in the proposed transaction by reading the proxy
statement and management information circular and other public filings referred to above when it becomes available.
Forward Looking Statements
Certain items in this report may constitute "forward-looking information" or "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws, including statements regarding the proposed transaction, the combined company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, leadership in the contract development and manufacturing
services industry, the expected annual revenues of the combined company, expected timing and benefits of the transaction, the preparation, delivery and availability of a proxy statement and management information circular and other relevant
materials in connection with the proposed transaction, and the holding of a special meeting of certain shareholders of Patheon in the first half of calendar 2014, which forward-looking statements may use forward-looking terminology such as
"may", "will", "expect", "anticipate", "believe", "continue", "potential", or the negative thereof or other variations thereof or comparable terminology. Such forward-looking
statements may include, without limitation, statements regarding the completion of the proposed transaction and other statements that are not historical facts.
These forward-looking statements reflect beliefs and assumptions which are based on Patheon's and Newco's perception of historical
trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. In making these statements, Patheon and Newco have made assumptions with respect to: the proposed
financing of the transaction; the ability of Patheon and Newco to achieve expected synergies and the timing of same; the ability of Patheon and Newco to predict and adapt to changing customer requirements, preferences and spending patterns; the
ability of Patheon and Newco to protect their intellectual property; future capital expenditures, including the amount and nature thereof; trends and developments in the contract development and manufacturing services industry and other sectors of
the economy which are related to these sectors; business strategy and outlook; expansion and growth of business and operations; credit risks; anticipated acquisitions; future results being similar to historical results; expectations related to
future general economic and market conditions; and other matters. Patheon's and Newco's beliefs and assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies regarding
future events and as such, are subject to change. Patheon's beliefs and assumptions may prove to be inaccurate and consequently Patheon's actual results could differ materially from the expectations set out herein.
While such forward-looking statements are expressed by Patheon, as stated in this release, in good faith and believed by Patheon to have a
reasonable basis, they are subject to important risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the possibility that certain assumptions with respect to the proposed transaction could prove to be inaccurate, risks and uncertainties relating
to the transaction and financing thereof, Newco's significant levels of indebtedness as a result of the proposed transaction, Newco's inability to complete the anticipated financing as contemplated by applicable commitment letters prior to
the contractually required time for closing of the proposed transaction or otherwise secure favourable terms for such financing, approval of applicable governmental authorities, required Patheon shareholder approval and necessary court approvals,
the satisfaction or waiver of certain other conditions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, disruptions resulting from the proposed transaction making it more difficult to maintain business relationships, and changes in applicable laws or
regulations, which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed, projected or implied by the forward-looking statements. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, the proposed transaction could be modified,
restructured or may not be completed, and the results or events predicted in these forward-looking statements may differ materially from actual results or events. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, given that
they involve risks and uncertainties. Patheon is not affirming or adopting any statements made by any other person in respect of the proposed transaction and expressly disclaims any intention or
5
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities laws or to
comment on expectations of, or statements made by any other person in respect of the proposed transaction.
Investors should not assume
that any lack of update to a previously issued forward-looking statement constitutes a reaffirmation of that statement. Reliance on forward-looking statements is at an investor's own risk.
