with the restrictive covenants in Sections 11 and 12; provided that vesting will cease upon your Termination of Service (except as set forth below in Section 1(b) through (d)), and any unvested portion of your Option will be forfeited (and, in the case of your Termination of Service for Cause, the vested portion of your Option will also be forfeited).

(b)Vesting Acceleration Upon Termination of Service due to Death or Disability. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of your Termination of Service due to your death or Disability, then any unvested portion of your Option will vest on the date of your Termination of Service.

(c)Vesting Acceleration Upon Termination of Service without Cause or for Good Reason in Connection with a Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of your Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason, in either case, within twelve (12) months following a Change of Control (or during the six month period prior to a Change of Control if such Termination of Service was in contemplation of, and directly related to, the Change of Control), then any portion of your Option that was not cancelled in connection with such Change of Control in exchange for a cash payment will vest on the date of your Termination of Service, conditioned on you delivering to the Company, and failing to revoke, a signed release of claims acceptable to the Company within fifty-five (55) days following the date of your Termination of Service and you complying with the restrictive covenants in Sections 11 and 12.

(d)Vesting Acceleration Upon Termination of Service due to Retirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of your Termination of Service due to your Retirement (as defined below), then any unvested portion of your Option will vest on the date of your Termination of Service; provided that you have been employed by the Company for at least twelve (12) months following the Grant Date (provided, however, that, in the event your Termination of Service occurs as a result of the entity for which you are employed ceasing to qualify as a Subsidiary prior to the twelve (12)-month anniversary of the Grant Date, the requirement to be employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries for at least twelve (12) months following the Grant Date shall not apply and one-third (1/3) of the Options will vest as of the date of such Termination of Service) and conditioned on you complying with the restrictive covenants in Sections 11 and 12. Unless otherwise defined in your employment or service agreement, “Retirement” means your Termination of Service on or after the date on which you attain age 55 and your age plus your years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries total at least 65, and you have not otherwise been terminated for Cause (and your Retirement has not occurred at a time when grounds for a Termination of Service for Cause exist).

(e)Termination of Service. For purposes of this Agreement, “Termination of Service” means the cessation of your employment relationship such that you are no longer an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the transfer of your employment from the Company to a Subsidiary, from a Subsidiary to the Company, from one Subsidiary to another Subsidiary or, unless the Committee determines otherwise, the cessation of employee status but the continuation of the performance of services for the Company or a Subsidiary as a director or consultant shall not be deemed a cessation of service that would constitute a Termination of Service; provided, further, that a Termination of Service shall be deemed to occur if you are employed by, or performing services for, a Subsidiary when such Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary, unless your employment or service continues with the Company or another Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent this Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code (and not exempt therefrom), a Termination of Service occurs when you experience a Separation of Service.

2.Number of Shares and Exercise Price. The number of Common Shares subject to your Option and your exercise price per share referenced above may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with Section 6(e) of the Plan.

3.Method of Payment. Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon exercise of all or any part of your Option. You may elect to make payment of the exercise price of your Option in cash or by check or in any other manner permitted by the Company or set forth above, which may include one or more of the following:

(a)Bank draft or money order payable to the Company.

(b)Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Shares are publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that, prior to the issuance of Common Shares, results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

(c)Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Shares are publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, by delivery to the Company (either by actual delivery or attestation) of already-owned Common Shares either that you have held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company’s reported earnings (generally six (6) months) or that you did not acquire, directly or indirectly from the Company, that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, and that are valued at Market Price on the date of exercise. “Delivery” for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the Company at the time you exercise your Option, shall include delivery to the Company of your attestation of ownership of such Common Shares in a form approved by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not exercise your Option by tender to the Company of Common Shares to the extent such tender would violate the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s stock.

(d)By a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of Common Shares issued upon exercise of your Option by the largest whole number of Common Shares with a Market Price that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; provided, however, that the Company shall accept a cash or other payment from you to the extent of any remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price not satisfied by such reduction in the number of whole Common Shares to be issued; provided further, however, that Common Shares will no longer be outstanding under your Option and will not be exercisable thereafter to the extent that (i) Common Shares are used to pay the exercise price pursuant to the “net exercise,” (ii) Common Shares are delivered to you as a result of such exercise, and (iii) Common Shares are withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations.

4.Whole Shares. You may exercise your Option only for whole Common Shares.

5.Securities Law Compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, you may not exercise your Option unless the Common Shares issuable upon such exercise are then registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or if such Common Shares are not then so registered the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of your Option must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing your Option, and you may not exercise your Option if the Company determines that such exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

6.Term. You may not exercise your Option before it becomes vested and exercisable or after the expiration of its term. The term of your Option commences on the Grant Date and, except as provided otherwise in Section 7(a) of the Plan, expires upon the earliest of the following:

(a)the Expiration Date indicated above;

(b)your Termination of Service, in the event of your Termination of Service by the Company for Cause;

(c)three (3) months following your Termination of Service by the Company without Cause;

(d)six (6) months following your Termination of Service by the Company due to your death or Disability, or upon the expiration of your employment term following a notice of non-renewal of your employment or service agreement by the Company;

(e)two (2) years following your Termination of Service due to your Retirement; or

(f)three (3) months following your Termination of Service for any reason other than those specifically enumerated in this Section 6; provided, however, that (i) if, during any part of the three (3) month, six (6) month or two (2) year periods set forth in Section 6(c), (d) or (e), respectively, your Option is not exercisable solely because of the condition set forth in Section 5, your Option shall not expire until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable for an aggregate period of three (3) months, six (6) months or two (2) years after your Termination of Service, as applicable (provided that in no event shall your Option be exercisable at any time following the Expiration Date).

7.Exercise. You may exercise the vested portion of your Option during its term by delivering a notice (in a form designated by the Company) together with the exercise price to the Company’s Plan administrator, or to such other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours, together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.

8.Transferability.

(a)Restrictions on Transfer. Your Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during your lifetime only by you; provided, however, that the Board may, in its sole discretion, permit you to transfer your Option in a manner consistent with applicable tax and securities laws upon your request.

(b)Domestic Relations Orders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, your Option may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order.

(c)Beneficiary Designation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form provided by or otherwise satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise your Option.

9.Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, at the election of the Committee in its discretion, your Option shall either be (i) cancelled in exchange for a payment in cash, securities, rights and/or other property, in an amount equal to the value of the Option, which shall be determined by reference to (A) in the case of any merger transaction, the

consideration received by holders of Common Shares in the transaction constituting the Change of Control or (B) in the case of any other event that constitutes a Change of Control, the Market Price of a Common Share on the date such Change of Control occurs (in each case, minus the applicable exercise price per Common Share) or (ii) converted into an option in respect of the common stock of the acquiring or surviving entity (or its parent) (in a merger or otherwise) on the basis of the relative values of such stock and the Common Shares at the time of the Change of Control; provided that clause (ii) shall only be applicable if the common stock of the acquiring or surviving entity (or its parent), as applicable, is publicly traded on an established securities market on the date on which such Change of Control is effected.

10.Disclosure and Ownership of Intellectual Property.

(a)Company Intellectual Property. You acknowledge and agree that any intellectual property, including, without limitation, works, materials, inventions, invention disclosures, invention registrations, patent rights, trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade dress, logos, domain names, copyrights, design rights, mask works, software, apparatus, technology, data, trade secrets, know-how and all other intellectual property and proprietary rights recognized by any applicable law of any jurisdiction, that you create, discover, conceive, reduce to practice, develop or acquire during the course of your employment, either alone or jointly with others, (i) using any equipment, supplies, facilities, trade secrets, know-how or other Confidential Information of the Company or any of its affiliates, (ii) that results from any work performed for the Company or any of its affiliates and/or (iii) that otherwise relates to the Company’s or any of its affiliates’ business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development (collectively, “Company Intellectual Property”) is and shall remain the exclusive property of the Company or the affiliate of the Company, as applicable, that is your employer (the “Employer”) whether registered or otherwise exploited or not.

12.Covenant Not to Solicit, Not to Compete and Not to Disparage. In consideration of the Options issued to you pursuant to this Agreement, you agree to be bound by the covenants of non-solicitation, non-competition and non-disparagement set forth in this Section 12.

(a)Covenant Not to Solicit. To protect the Confidential Information and other trade secrets of the Company and its affiliates, you agree, during your employment and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter (or, if greater, the period set forth in your employment or service agreement) not to solicit, hire or participate in or assist in any way in the solicitation or hire of any employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries during the 6-month period preceding such action). For purposes of this covenant, “solicit” or “solicitation” means directly or indirectly influencing or attempting to influence employees of the Company to become employed with any other person, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity. You agree that the covenants contained in this Section 12(a) are reasonable and desirable to protect the Confidential Information of the Company and its affiliates, provided that solicitation through general advertising or the provision of references shall not constitute a breach of such obligations.

(b)Covenant Not to Compete. To protect the Confidential Information and other trade secrets of the Company and its affiliates, you agree, during the period of your employment and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter (or, if greater, the period set forth in your employment or service agreement), not to engage in Prohibited Activities (as defined below) in any country in which the Company or its affiliates conduct business, or plan to conduct business, during the period of your employment. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Prohibited Activities” means directly or indirectly engaging as an owner, employee, consultant or agent of any entity that derives more than 10% of its consolidated revenue from the development, manufacturing, marketing and/or distribution (directly or indirectly) of branded or generic prescription or non-prescription pharmaceuticals or medical devices for treatments in the fields of neurology, dermatology, gastroenterology, ophthalmology or dentistry; provided that Prohibited Activities shall not mean (i) your investment in securities of a publicly-traded company equal to less than five (5%) percent of such company’s outstanding voting securities or (ii) serving as a member of a board of directors of a company provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, you comply with the obligations set forth in Sections 11 and 12(a) of this Agreement. You agree that the covenants contained in this Section 12(b) are reasonable and desirable to protect the Confidential Information of the Company and its affiliates.

(c)Non-Disparagement Covenant. You agree not to make written or oral statements about the Company or its affiliates or their directors, executive officers or non-executive officer employees that are negative or disparaging. The Company and its affiliates shall not, and the Company and its affiliates shall instruct their directors and executive officers to not, make written or oral statements about you that are negative or disparaging. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude you, the Company and its affiliates, and the Company’s or any of its affiliate’s directors and executive officers from communicating or testifying truthfully to the extent required by law to any federal, state, provincial or local governmental agency or in response to a subpoena to testify issued by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d)Your obligations under this Section 12 shall survive your Termination of Service.

13.Severability of Restrictive Covenants. It is the intent and desire of you and the Company that the restrictive provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies as applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provision of Section 11 or 12 shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be amended, without any action on the part of either party hereto, to delete therefrom the portion so determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such deletion to apply only with respect to the operation of such covenant in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made. Any provision of Section 11 or 12 (or part of such a Section) so declared to be unlawful or invalid will, if possible, be construed in a manner that will give effect to the terms of such Section or part of such Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.

14.Remedies for Breach of Obligations Under Sections 11 and 12. You acknowledge that the Company will suffer irreparable injury, not readily susceptible of valuation in monetary damages, if you breach any obligation under Sections 11 or 12. Accordingly, you agree that the Company will be entitled, in addition to any other available remedies, to obtain preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or prospective breach by you of your obligations under Sections 11 or 12. Without limiting other forms of relief available to Company, in the event of your breach of any of your obligations under Sections 11 or 12, your Award will be forfeited for no consideration and, if payment in respect of your Award has been made, you will be obligated to return the proceeds to the Company. You agree that process in any or all of those actions or proceedings may be served by registered mail, addressed to the last address provided by you to the Company, or in any other manner authorized by law.

15.Clawback. This Agreement is subject to Section 11 of the Plan and any policy the Company adopts regarding the recovery of incentive compensation and any additional clawback provisions as required by law and applicable listing rules.

16.Option not a Service Contract. Your Option is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in your Option will be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the service of the Company or an affiliate, or on the part of the Company or an affiliate to continue such service. In addition, nothing in your Option will obligate the Company or an affiliate, their respective shareholders, boards of directors or employees to continue any relationship that you might have as an employee of the Company or an affiliate.

17.Common Share Ownership Requirements. You agree to comply with, and be subject to the terms of, any Common Share ownership requirements adopted by the Company applicable to you, which shall be on the same terms as similarly situated executives of the Company.

18.Withholding Obligations.

(a)At the time you exercise your Option, in whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a “cashless exercise” pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company, if any, which arise in connection with the exercise of your Option.

(b)The Company shall withhold from fully vested Common Shares otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of your Option a number of whole Common Shares having a Market Price, determined by the Company as of the date of exercise, equal to an amount up to the maximum amount of tax that can be withheld by law (or such other amount as may be permitted by applicable law and accounting standards). Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection with such share withholding procedure shall be your sole responsibility.

19.Notices. Any notices provided for in your Option or the Plan shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon your receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.

20.Headings. The headings of the Sections in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part of this Agreement or to affect the meaning of this Agreement.

21.Amendment. Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict the Committee’s (or its applicable delegate’s) ability to exercise its discretionary authority pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan; provided, however, that no such action may, without your consent, adversely affect your rights under your Option. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board (or appropriate committee thereof) reserves the right to change, by written notice to you, the provisions of this Agreement in any way it may deem necessary or advisable to carry out the purpose of the grant as a result of any change in applicable laws or regulations or any future law, regulation, ruling, or judicial decision; provided that any such change will be applicable only to rights relating to that portion of the Award which is then subject to restrictions as provided herein.

22.Miscellaneous.

(b)You agree upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary or desirable in the sole determination of the Company to carry out the purposes or intent of your Option.

(c)You acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed your Option in its entirety, have had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing and accepting your Option and fully understand all provisions of your Option. This Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any other agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof (including, without limitation, the provisions in your employment letter with respect thereto).

(d)This Agreement will be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

(e)All obligations of the Company under the Plan and this Agreement will be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

23.Governing Plan Document. Your Option is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your Option, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of your Option and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control; provided, however, for avoidance of doubt, terms contained in the Agreement but not in the Plan shall not constitute a conflict and such terms in the Agreement shall control. The Committee will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules.
