ORDER AMENDING OPINION

The Precedential Opinion which was filed on June 26, 2015 shall be amended with respect to footnote 27 which appears on page 37 of the opinion. The footnote as amended shall read in its entirety:

27. We do not believe that the no-AG agreement was in fact an "exclusive" license. However, since the issue of whether such agreement is an exclusive license is not necessary for our decision here, we will leave its determination for another day.

This amendment does not alter the original filing date of the opinion and the Court’s judgment.

By the Court,

s/ Anthony J. Scirica Circuit Judge Date: September 23, 2015
