KEENOVA THERAPEUTICS PLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited; in millions, except share data, per share data, and where indicated)

1.Background and Basis of Presentation
Background
Keenova Therapeutics plc and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “Keenova” or “the Company”) is a leading U.S.-focused branded therapeutics company that strives to help patients with rare or unaddressed conditions live happier and healthier lives. Keenova’s rare disease capabilities underpin the Company’s diversified brands portfolio, which is focused across a wide range of therapeutics areas of significant unmet need. These include rheumatology, ophthalmology, nephrology, neurology, pulmonology, orthopedics, urology, and neonatal respiratory critical care.
The Company’s principal executive offices are located at College Business & Technology Park, Cruiserath, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15, Ireland, where certain manufacturing operations are also located. In addition, the Company has locations in the United States (“U.S.”), including manufacturing facilities in Horsham, Pennsylvania; Port Allen, Louisiana; Rye, New York; Cranbury, New Jersey; and Madison, Wisconsin, as well as office facilities in Bridgewater, New Jersey; Malvern, Pennsylvania; Hazelwood, Missouri; Washington, D.C.; and in Tokyo, Japan, among others. The Company also has seven regional service centers in the U.S.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which they own or control more than 50.0% of the voting shares. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, cash flows and financial position have been made. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation and all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement have been included in the results reported.
The results of entities disposed of are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements up to the date of disposal, and where appropriate, these operations have been reported in discontinued operations. Divestitures of product lines and businesses not meeting the criteria for discontinued operations have been reflected in continuing operations.
The fiscal year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP; accordingly these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2026 (“2025 Form 10-K”).
Fiscal Year
The Company historically reported its results based on a “52-53 week” year ending on the last Friday of December. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company approved a change in its fiscal year end from a 52-53-week year ending on the last Friday of December to a calendar year ending on December 31, 2025. Beginning with fiscal 2026, the Company’s fiscal year corresponds to the calendar year from January 1 through December 31.
The number of operating days in the quarterly periods in fiscal year 2026 are different as compared to the 52-53 weeks quarterly periods in fiscal year 2025, which has an impact on the Company’s comparative presentation of period-over-period information. The three months ended March 28, 2025 refers to the thirteen week period ended March 28, 2025 and includes one additional operating day when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the significant accounting policies presented in Note 4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2025 Form 10-K.

2.Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). This ASU requires new financial statement disclosures about the nature, amount, and timing of relevant expense categories underlying income statement expense, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The disclosure updates are required to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of this standard and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal‑Use Software (Subtopic 350‑40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal‑Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). This ASU modernizes the accounting guidance for internal‑use software costs by eliminating references to software development project stages and introducing a principles‑based model that requires capitalization of costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for its intended purpose. This ASU also supersedes existing guidance on website development costs and incorporates that guidance into Subtopic 350‑40. ASU 2025‑06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The standard may be applied prospectively, modified retrospectively, or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its accounting for internal‑use software costs and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270) - Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11). The amendments add to Topic 270 a principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. Rather, the objective of the amendments is to provide clarity on interim reporting requirements. ASU 2025-11 results in a comprehensive list of interim disclosures that are required by GAAP and is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.
No other new accounting pronouncement issued has had, or is expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
3.Business Combination
Business Combination with Endo
On March 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Transaction Agreement (as amended on April 23, 2025) (“Transaction Agreement”) with Endo, Inc. (which has since been converted to Endo LP, “Endo”) and Salvare Merger Sub LLC, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”). On July 31, 2025, pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Endo through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Endo, with Endo continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Business Combination”). For further information, refer to Note 5. Business Combination of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2025 Form 10-K.
The accounting for the Business Combination has not been finalized and further adjustments may be necessary as a result of the Company’s continuing assessment during the measurement period. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company’s assessment of additional information that existed at the acquisition date relating to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in an increase in the fair value of inventory of $2.5 million, an increase in prepaid and other current assets of $2.1 million, and a decrease in accrued and other current liabilities of $2.3 million. As a result, goodwill was reduced by $6.9 million.
4.Divestitures
Par Health Separation
On November 10, 2025, the Company completed the separation (“Separation”) of its Generics and Sterile Injectables businesses into an independent, private company named Par Health Inc. (“Par Health”). As a result of the Separation, the Company no longer retains any ownership interest in Par Health. For further information, refer to Note 6. Divestitures of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2025 Form 10-K.

The financial results of Par Health are classified as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations, for all relevant periods presented. The following table summarizes the financial performance of Par Health for the three months ended March 28, 2025, which reflects the results of the Company’s former Generics business during this time period.

Income under the Par Health TSA was $3.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026 under the provisions of these certain agreements, the Company was owed approximately $9.1 million from Par Health and the Company owed approximately $4.2 million to Par Health, which primarily reflect amounts owed between the parties for certain pass-through costs paid or received by one party on behalf of the other party.
Therakos Divestiture
On November 29, 2024, the Company completed the divestiture of the Company’s Therakos business (“Therakos Divestiture”). The Company recorded $6.2 million for the final working capital settlement for the Therakos Divestiture during the three months ended March 28, 2025. In connection with the Therakos Divestiture, the Company entered into a transition services agreement (the “Therakos TSA”) effective upon closing to provide certain business support services generally for up to 18 months after the closing date or a longer period for certain services. Income under the Therakos TSA was $0.4 million and $3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 28, 2025, respectively. For further information, refer to Note 6.

Costs to fulfill a contract
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total net book value of the devices used in the Company's portfolio of drug-device combination products, which are used in satisfying future performance obligations and reflected in property, plant and equipment, net, on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was $65.8 million and $62.0 million, respectively. The associated depreciation expense recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 28, 2025 was $2.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
6.Income Taxes
The Company recognized an income tax expense of $4.8 million and tax benefit of $1.7 million on losses from continuing operations before income taxes of $108.7 million and $77.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 28, 2025, respectively. This resulted in an effective tax rate of (4.4)% and 2.2%, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the Irish statutory tax rate of 12.5%, predominately due to statutory rate differences across the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, net of valuation allowances, applied to pretax earnings which includes the impacts of inventory step-up and intangible amortization expense. The effective tax rate is also affected by non-deductible expenses, including interest, compensation, and costs associated with the Business Combination, integration, and other related activity.
The Company's unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest, totaled $26.6 million as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two global minimum tax rules, which generally provide for a minimum effective tax rate of 15%, were intended to apply for tax years beginning in 2024. The Company continues to closely monitor developments and evaluate the impact these new rules will have on its tax rate, including eligibility to qualify for certain safe harbors. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 28, 2025, no foreign subsidiary is forecasted to incur a material top-up tax under Pillar Two.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law in the United States. OBBBA includes significant provisions, including the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to
10

the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for depreciation and interest expenses. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. There was not a significant impact to the Company’s income tax expense or effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
7.Loss per Share
The weighted-average number of shares outstanding used in the computations of basic and diluted loss per share were as follows (in millions of shares):
Three Months Ended
March 31,
2026
March 28,
2025
Basic39.6 19.7 
Dilutive impact of restricted share units  
Diluted39.6 19.7 
A net loss cannot be diluted. When a company is in a net loss position, basic and diluted loss per share are the same. If the Company records net income, the denominator of a diluted earnings per share calculation will include both the weighted average number of shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents, if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive. The computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 28, 2025 excluded approximately 1.5 million and 1.7 million, respectively, of common stock equivalents (consisting of stock awards during both periods and contingent value rights during the three months ended March 28, 2025) because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
8.Inventories

The Company assesses the probability of potential liabilities related to such representations, warranties and indemnities and adjusts potential liabilities as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. As of March 31, 2026, the Company believes the likelihood of payment is remote and the fair value of such guarantees is not material.
As of March 31, 2026, there were no material changes in our guarantees or non-indebtedness obligations from those disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K.
13.Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings and Investigations
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including government investigations, environmental matters, product liability matters, patent infringement claims, antitrust matters, securities class action lawsuits, personal injury claims, employment disputes, contractual and other commercial disputes, and other legal proceedings, all in the ordinary course of business, including those described below. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, the Company believes, unless otherwise indicated below, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of any particular matter, or matters that have the same legal or factual issues, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In April 2025, Endo USA received subpoenas from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Consumer Protection Branch seeking documents and information, if any, related to the marketing and promotion of Supprelin® LA from January 2020 through the present, for certain unapproved uses, including transgender care and gender dysphoria. Endo USA is cooperating with the investigation and is in the process of responding to the subpoenas. The Company cannot predict the eventual scope, duration or outcome of the investigation at this time.
U.S. Department of Justice Civil Investigative Demand. In October 2025, Endo received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the U.S. Department of Justice under the False Claims Act seeking documents and information from January 2020 through the present. The CID concerns allegations that (1) Endo violated the False Claims Act by paying kickbacks to induce the purchase of Xiaflex®, in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute and (2) Endo inflated reimbursement rates for Xiaflex® by excluding applicable price concessions from average sales price reports submitted to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Endo is cooperating with the investigation and is in the process of responding to the CID. The Company cannot predict the eventual scope, duration or outcome of this matter at this time.
Securities Litigation
Alta Fundamental. In September 2024, a lawsuit was filed against the Company’s CEO Sigurdur Olafsson, its former CFO Bryan Reasons, the former Chair of the Board Paul Bisaro, its former Chief Strategy and Restructuring Officer Jason Goodson, and its former Global Controller and Chief Investor Relations Officer Daniel Speciale (“Alta Individual Defendants”), in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, captioned Alta Fundamental Advisors, LLC et al. v. Bisaro et al., No. 24-cv-09245. The Alta Fundamental lawsuit generally alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements related to the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, including its financial strength, its ability to timely make certain payments related to the Company’s opioid-related litigation settlement and the risk of additional filings for bankruptcy protection. The lawsuit alleges claims under Sections 10(b), 18(a), and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and the New Jersey Uniform Securities Act, as well as common law fraud and negligent misrepresentation. The Company assumed the obligation to defend and indemnify the Alta Individual Defendants. The lawsuit seeks monetary damages in an unspecified amount. In June 2025, the court granted in part and denied in part the Alta Individual Defendants' motion to dismiss. Certain of the Alta Individual Defendants filed a motion for reconsideration as to the court’s partial denial. In February 2026, the court granted the motion for reconsideration and the Individual Defendants Goodson and Speciale were dismissed from this case. The Alta Individual Defendants who did not file a motion for reconsideration answered the complaint in August 2025. In May 2026, the parties entered into an agreement to resolve all claims on this matter, with the settlement amount to be funded by the Company’s insurance carriers and not material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Endo Bankruptcy
Historically, Endo’s business had been operated by Endo International plc, together with its subsidiaries. On August 16, 2022, Endo International plc, together with certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, filed voluntary petitions for relief under the chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (“Bankruptcy Code,” and such cases, the “Endo Chapter 11 Cases”); certain additional Endo entities filed voluntary petitions for relief under the Bankruptcy Code on May 25, 2023 and May 31, 2023 (together the “Endo Debtors”). On December 19, 2023, the Endo Debtors filed a proposed chapter 11 plan of reorganization (as amended, including on January 5, 2024, January 9, 2024 and March 18, 2024, and including any exhibits and supplements filed with respect thereto, the “Endo Plan”) and related disclosure statement with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (“New York Bankruptcy Court”). The New York Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Endo Plan on March 19, 2024, and the Endo Debtors satisfied all conditions required for the Endo Plan effectiveness on April 23, 2024.
At the Endo Debtors’ request, the New York Bankruptcy Court appointed the Future Claimants' Representative (“FCR”) in the Endo Chapter 11 Cases. As further described in the applicable New York Bankruptcy Court filings, the FCR represents the rights of individuals who may in the future assert one or more personal injury claims against the Endo Debtors or a successor of the Endo Debtors’ businesses relating to the Endo Debtors’ opioid or transvaginal surgical mesh products, but who could not assert such claims in the Endo Chapter 11 Cases because, among other reasons, such individuals were unaware of the alleged injury, had a latent manifestation of the alleged injury or were otherwise unable to assert or incapable of asserting claims based on the alleged injury. Under the Endo Plan and the settlement contemplated thereby, the trust established for the benefit of eligible future claimants assumed liability for all future claims in exchange for Endo’s ongoing obligation to fund such trust. As of March 31, 2026, the Company accrued for loss contingencies of approximately $8.2 million. The liability was assumed in connection with the Business Combination, which is discussed further in Note 3 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Under the Endo Plan, the U.S. Government Economic Settlement provides for payment by Endo of contingent consideration of $25.0 million per year for each calendar year between 2024 and 2028 (capped at $100.0 million in the aggregate) if Endo’s annual EBITDA for the corresponding calendar year exceeds defined baselines (the “EBITDA Outperformance Targets”), as set forth in the U.S. Government Economic Settlement. In accordance with the provisions of the U.S. Government Economic Settlement, in the event Endo acquires or sells assets, such EBITDA Outperformance Targets, as adjusted to reflect the effects of the Business Combination in
14

July 2025 and the Separation in November 2025 shall be adjusted upward or downward dollar for dollar in an amount equal to the EBITDA contribution of such acquired or sold assets. The EBITDA Outperformance Targets for 2024 and 2025 were not met and the Company does not expect to meet the EBITDA Outperformance Targets in any of the fiscal years 2026 through 2028. No payments have been made or accrued for related to the achievement of certain EBITDA Outperformance Targets. Such contingent payments continue to apply after the closing of the Business Combination and the Separation.
Patent Litigation
The Company will continue to vigorously enforce its intellectual property rights relating to its products to prevent the marketing of infringing generic, biosimilar or competing products prior to the expiration of patents covering those products, which, if unsuccessful, could adversely affect the Company's ability to successfully maximize the value of individual products and have an adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In the case of litigation filed against potential generic, biosimilar or competing products to Company's products, those litigation matters can either be settled or the litigation pursued through a trial and any potential appeals of the lower court decision.
Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals Ireland Limited, et al. v. Airgas Therapeutics LLC et al. On December 30, 2022, the Company initiated litigation against Airgas Therapeutics, LLC, Airgas USA LLC, and Air Liquide S.A. (collectively “Airgas”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware following notice from Airgas of its ANDA submission seeking approval from the FDA for a generic version of INOmax® (nitric oxide) gas, for inhalation (“INOmax”). Airgas's ANDA received final approval from the FDA in July 2023, and according to Airgas' counsel, the original ANDA was filed in April 2011. In February 2024, the court entered stipulations of consent for filing of an amended complaint. In March 2024, the court granted Air Liquide S.A.’s motion to dismiss. Airgas Therapeutics, LLC and Airgas USA LLC remain parties to the litigation. In January 2025, the court denied the Company’s motion for preliminary injunction seeking to prevent defendants Airgas Therapeutics LLC and Airgas USA LLC from infringing the Company’s U.S. patents during the pendency of the litigation. The defendants have filed a motion for summary judgment. There was a jury trial in September 2025. At trial, the Company asserted three patents. The Company was seeking monetary and equitable relief. On September 12, 2025, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the Company. The jury found that AirGas willfully infringed the asserted patents. The jury awarded approximately $9.5 million in monetary damages. On October 7, 2025, the court entered judgment that Airgas infringes the asserted patents under 35 U.S.C. §271(e) and will enter final judgment on remedies after considering motions for judgment as a matter of law.
Amitiza Patent Challenges. The Company was granted numerous Japanese patents related to Amitiza. The Company has received notifications of petitions for invalidation trials described below, each of which was filed with the Japan Patent Office (“JPO”) and relates to Amitiza and its use in Japan. The JPO has the authority to determine the validity of each of these patent grants and each of these patent term extension (“PTE”) registration grants. A party may appeal the JPO’s determination to a court of law.
In October 2023, the Company received notification that Sawai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Sawai”) had filed petitions for two invalidation trials against two PTE registrations for JP Patent No. 4332353. In June 2025, the JPO determined that none of the invalidation grounds can stand and concluded that the two PTE registrations for the 24 and 12μg capsules are valid. Sawai has appealed the JPO decision for both PTE registrations. Oral arguments were held in February 2026. A decision was reached on April 9, 2026, dismissing Sawai’s complaints. Sawai did not appeal the decision.
In December 2023, the Company received notification that Sawai had filed a petition for an invalidation trial against JP Patent No. 4332353. The JPO held a hearing in December 2024 relating to Sawai’s challenge of JP Patent No. 4332353, and in May 2025 the JPO issued a decision finding that all of the asserted claims in respect of JP Patent No. 4332353 are valid and will be maintained. Sawai has appealed the JPO's decision to the IP High Court. Initial briefs were filed by all parties and an oral argument was held on April 23, 2026. The court has indicated that a decision is expected on June 23, 2026.
In April 2024, the Company received notification that Sawai had filed petitions for invalidation trials with respect to only the 12µg strength of Amitiza against PTE registrations of three additional patents (JP Patent No. 4786866, JP Patent No. 4852229, and JP Patent No. 4889219). The JPO held a hearing in August 2025 with respect to the three invalidations trials regarding the 12 µg PTE registrations. The JPO has completed their examination and the Company is awaiting the decision from the JPO.
In April 2024, the Company received notification that Sawai had filed a petition for invalidation trial against JP Patent No. 4786866. In December 2025, the JPO issued a Notice of Completion of Examination in the invalidation trial. In February 2026, the JPO issued a decision finding that all of the asserted claims in respect of JP Patent No. 4786866 as amended during the invalidation trial are valid and will be maintained. The decision was not appealed by Sawai, and the deadline to appeal has passed.
In May 2024, the Company received notification that Sawai had filed petitions for invalidation trials with respect to only the 12µg strength of Amitiza against PTE registrations of two additional patents (JP Patent No. 4332316 and JP Patent No. 4684334). An oral hearing was held on March 2, 2026. A decision is expected later this year.
In December 2025, the Company received notification that Towa Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Towa”) had filed petitions for invalidation trials with respect to only the 12µg strength of Amitiza against PTE registrations for JP Patent Nos. 4786866, 4852229, and 4889219. The petitions have been received by the parties, and answers to the petitions are expected to be filed in May 2026. The
15

Company believes that each of these patents and/or PTE registrations is valid, and the Company will vigorously defend these patents and PTE registrations.
In October 2025, the Company intervened in a patent infringement suit filed by Viatris Pharmaceuticals Japan G.K. (“Viatris”) against Sawai, in Osaka District Court, Civil Division, related to certain Japanese patents. Viatris has filed lawsuits against Sawai alleging that Sawai has infringed JP Patent Nos. 4889219 (“the ‘219 patent”) and 4332353 (“the ‘353 patent”). In the lawsuit, Viatris alleges that Sawai has infringed the ‘219 and ‘353 patents by filing an application for marketing approval of a generic drug of Amitiza 24 mcg capsules. Petitions for preliminary injunction have also been filed against Sawai to enjoin them from continuing to infringe the ‘219 and ‘353 patents. The Company has intervened in both lawsuits to support Viatris in their claims against Sawai and to defend the validity of the ‘219 and ‘353 patents. In February 2026, the Osaka District Court ruled on the preliminary injunction cases in favor of Sawai, finding that Sawai does not infringe the ‘219 patent or the ‘353 patent. The Osaka District Court did not rule on the validity of either the ‘219 patent or the ‘353 patent. Viatris appealed the decision, and the Company joined the appeal, but the appeal was later withdrawn. A decision in the patent infringement lawsuits was received on March 3, 2026, finding that Sawai does not infringe the ‘219 patent or the ‘353 patent. Viatris has appealed the decision, and the Company has joined the appeal. On February 16, 2026, the Japanese regulatory authority approved both Towa’s and Sawai’s generic 24 mcg Amitiza products.
Separately, Viatris filed a number of additional proceedings alleging patent infringement against Towa and Sawai in Japan, including petitions to enjoin them from continuing to infringe a number of patents related to the Amitiza 24 mcg capsules. The Company has intervened in the lawsuits to support Viatris in their claims and to defend the validity of the patents. The petitions to enjoin Sawai and Towa from continuing to infringe a number of patents related to the Amitiza 24 mcg capsules have been withdrawn, but the patent infringement cases remain pending.
The outcome of the forgoing proceedings is expected to impact the Company’s sales of Amitiza in Japan.
Other Matters
The Company is a defendant in a number of other pending legal proceedings relating to present and former operations, acquisitions and dispositions. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
SpinCo Liabilities
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Separation Agreement by and between the Company and Par Health, at the effective time of its separation from the Company, Par Health or one of its subsidiaries assumed certain liabilities (whether accrued, contingent or otherwise) relating to, arising out of or resulting from the generic pharmaceuticals (including APIs) and sterile injectables businesses of the Company or certain related assets, including all related pending, threatened and unasserted legal matters (collectively, the “SpinCo Liabilities”). These SpinCo Liabilities include, among others, environmental proceedings, governmental investigations, patent proceedings, commercial disputes, and other litigation. The Company or one of its subsidiaries retained all liabilities (including whether accrued, contingent or otherwise) other than SpinCo Liabilities, including all related pending, threatened and unasserted legal matters (the “Parent Liabilities”). Par Health agreed to indemnify the Company for any liability arising out of or resulting from the SpinCo Liabilities, and the Company agreed to indemnify Par Health for any liability arising out of or resulting from the Parent Liabilities. Items described above are considered to be Parent Liabilities.
Based on the Company’s understanding of the matters to date, the Company does not intend to further report on SpinCo Liabilities, except for the matters described below under the captions “U.S. Attorney's Office Subpoena W.D. Va.” and “Generic Pharmaceutical Antitrust Multi-District Litigation” in which a Keenova entity has been named a party.
U.S. Attorney's Office Subpoena W.D. Va. In August 2023, the Company received a grand jury subpoena from the WDVA USAO. Subsequently, the Company and Par Health received additional grand jury subpoenas from the WDVA USAO, most recently, in December 2025. The subpoenas seek production of certain data and information for the time period from July 17, 2012, to the present, including information and data relating to the controlled substances compliance program of the Company’s former subsidiaries, reporting of suspicious orders for controlled substances, chargebacks and other transactions, financial accounts related to these issues, financial transactions involving prescription drug products, and communications with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. The Company cannot predict the eventual scope, duration or outcome of this matter at this time.
Generic Pharmaceutical Antitrust Multi-District Litigation. In August 2016, a multi-district litigation (“MDL”) was established in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (“EDPA”) relating to allegations of antitrust violations with respect to generic pharmaceutical pricing (“Generic Pricing MDL”). Plaintiffs in the Generic Pricing MDL, captioned In re: Generic Pharmaceuticals Pricing Antitrust Litigation, allege a conspiracy of price-fixing and customer allocation among generic drug manufacturers beginning in or around July 2009. The Generic Pricing MDL includes lawsuits against the Company and dozens of other pharmaceutical companies, including a complaint filed by Attorneys General for 51 States, Territories and the District of Columbia seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief (“AG Litigation”). Since its inception, the Generic Pricing MDL has expanded to encompass dozens of pharmaceutical companies and more than 200 generic pharmaceutical drugs. Although the AG Litigation had been consolidated in the EDPA in the Generic Pricing MDL, a 2022 federal legislative change exempted state antitrust enforcement actions arising under federal antitrust law from MDLs. As a result, the plaintiffs sought and won a remand to the
16

jurisdiction in which the case was filed, the District of Connecticut. As a result of this change and resulting action, the Company filed its answer to the plaintiffs’ amended complaint in the District Court of Connecticut in September 2024. While the Company believes it is not subject to monetary damages in connection with these matters, as a result of its emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and Irish examinership proceedings on June 16, 2022 and vigorously disagrees with the plaintiffs' characterization of the facts and law, the Company is not able to reasonably estimate whether any injunctive relief will be granted, and if granted, whether it will materially impact the Company's financial position or operations. The joint defense group filed joint motions for summary judgment, which have been denied. A number of defendants, including the Company, have filed defendant-specific motions for summary judgment, most of which presently remain pending. In February 2026, the Company’s defendant-specific motion for summary judgment was granted as to the unavailability of monetary relief against the Company, but denied as to the Company’s motion to dismiss the Company. In March 2026, a defendant filed a writ of mandamus to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit challenging the summary judgment ruling allowing the plaintiffs’ overarching conspiracy theory. This writ remains pending. The Company cannot predict the eventual scope, duration or outcome of this matter at this time.
14.Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 — observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — significant other observable inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions.
The following tables provide a summary of the significant assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the end of each period:

Equity securities. Equity securities consist primarily of shares of Silence Therapeutics plc, for which quoted prices are available in an active market; therefore, these investments are classified as Level 1 and are valued based on quoted market prices reported on internationally recognized securities exchanges. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company began to dispose of a portion of its investment in Silence Therapeutics, resulting in a realized gain of approximately $0.1 million. The three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 28, 2025 included unrealized losses of $0.5 million and $6.2 million, respectively, related to the Company’s investments within other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Deferred compensation liabilities. The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan in the U.S., which permitted eligible employees of the Company to defer a portion of their compensation. The plan is currently frozen for employee deferrals. A recordkeeping account is set up for each participant and the participant chooses from a variety of funds for the deemed
17

investment of their accounts. The recordkeeping accounts generally correspond to the funds offered in the Company's U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan and the account balance fluctuates with the investment returns on those funds.
Contingent consideration liability. The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities is determined using unobservable inputs; hence, these instruments represent Level 3 measurements within the above-defined fair value hierarchy. These inputs include the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows, the probability of success (achievement of the contingent event) and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the probability-weighted cash flows. Subsequent to the acquisition date, at each reporting period, the contingent consideration liability is remeasured at current fair value with changes recorded in earnings. The estimates of fair value are uncertain and changes in any of the estimated inputs used as of the date of this report could have resulted in significant adjustments to fair value.

(2) Includes fair value of $3.0 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 classified within accrued and other current liabilities, respectively.
Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values for financial instruments not measured at fair value as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the majority of other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company classifies cash on hand and deposits in banks, including commercial paper, money market accounts and other highly liquid investments it may hold from time to time, with an original maturity of three months or less, as cash and cash equivalents (Level 1). The fair value of restricted cash was equivalent to its carrying value of $140.8 million and $141.1 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (Level 1), respectively. Restricted cash as of March 31, 2026 primarily relates to certain self-insurance related matters of $85.9 million, $22.4 million related to the Mallinckrodt Baker escrow and approximately $32.5 million related to certain bank guarantees, letters of credit, surety bonds, and other collateral arrangements.
The Company's 8.50% Senior Secured Notes due April 2031 are classified as Level 1, as quoted prices are available in an active market for these notes. Since quoted market prices for the Company's Term Loan due April 2031 are not available in an active market, they are classified as Level 2 for purposes of developing an estimate of fair value. Refer to Note 15. Debt of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2025 Form 10-K for further discussion regarding the Company’s debt instruments.

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of accounts receivable. The Company generally does not require collateral from customers.

16.Share-based Compensation
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company granted 0.6 million time-based restricted share-units (“RSUs”) with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $58.3 million, which vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date for executive officers and fully vest on the first anniversary of the grant date for directors, 0.3 million performance-based restricted-share units (“PSUs”), with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $22.6 million, which cliff vest after three years upon achievement of specified financial performance criteria, and 1.0 million PSUs with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $90.0 million, which vest solely upon the occurrence of specified events. Compensation expense for the RSUs and the PSUs tied to financial performance criteria is recognized using the graded attribution method and, for PSUs, gives consideration to the probability of achieving the applicable vesting conditions. With respect to the PSUs that vest solely upon the occurrence of event criteria, no stock‑based compensation expense has been recognized during the period, as the event is not considered probable.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
(In millions, except share data, per share data, and where indicated)
Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 15, 2026 (“2025 Form 10-K”). This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements that are based on management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this Item 2 for important additional information and related considerations.
Fiscal Year
We have historically reported our results based on a “52-53 week” year ending on the last Friday of December. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, we approved a change in our fiscal year end from a 52-53-week year ending on the last Friday of December to a calendar year ending on December 31, 2025. Beginning with fiscal 2026, our fiscal year corresponds to the calendar year from January 1 through December 31.
The number of operating days in the quarterly periods in fiscal year 2026 are different as compared to the 52-53 weeks quarterly periods in fiscal year 2025, which has an impact on our comparative presentation of period over period information. The three months ended March 28, 2025 refer to the thirteen week periods ended March 28, 2025 and includes one additional operating day when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Overview of Business
We are a leading U.S.-focused branded therapeutics company that strives to help patients with rare or unaddressed conditions live happier and healthier lives. Our rare disease capabilities underpin our diversified brands portfolio, which is focused across a wide range of therapeutics areas of significant unmet need. These include rheumatology, ophthalmology, nephrology, neurology, pulmonology, orthopedics, urology, and neonatal respiratory critical care.
On July 31, 2025, we completed our business combination with Endo, Inc. (which has since been converted to Endo LP, “Endo”) (“Business Combination”). Our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect the operating results of Endo following the closing of the Business Combination. Further, following the separation of our Generics and Sterile Injectables businesses into an independent, private company named Par Health, Inc. (“Separation”) on November 10, 2025, our financial statements and accompanying notes have been recast to reflect Par Health’s assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Refer to Note 3. Business Combination and Note 4. Divestitures of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for further information on the Business Combination and the Separation, respectively.
For further information on our business and products, refer to Item 1. Business included within the 2025 Form 10-K.
Financial Highlights
The sections that follow summarize the results of our operations for the periods presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We operate our business in one operating and reportable segment. Accordingly, the discussion that follows focuses on our results of operations, our liquidity and our cash flows on a consolidated basis, with appropriate disaggregation where necessary to provide better insight into our operating performance, such as net sales.
Net sales and loss from continuing operations are as follows:

__________
NM indicates that the percentage change is not meaningful or is greater than 100%.
Net sales from continuing operations of $468.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $261.1 million compared to net sales of $207.2 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025. The increase is driven primarily by the net sales of products acquired from Endo of $206.4 million, coupled with growth in Acthar Gel net sales of $54.1 million, reflecting increased patient demand.

Loss from continuing operations of $113.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $38.2 million when compared to loss from continuing operations of $75.3 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025. This change is driven primarily by higher selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense of $95.7 million, interest expense of $18.4 million and research and development expense of $7.9 million partially offset by higher gross profit of $74.5 million and a change in other income of $15.8 million due to non-recurring losses in the prior period.
See Results of Operations below for further details.

NM indicates that the percentage change is not meaningful or is greater than 100%.
(1)Is or contains products acquired in the Business Combination. Accordingly, there are no comparable net sales for these products in the prior year period.
Acthar Gel net sales increased $54.1 million, or 46.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025. This increase was driven primarily by increased patient demand resulting from commercial investments and execution that increased category awareness and expansion, continued momentum in SelfJect uptake, and improved patient access.

Xiaflex net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $134.4 million, driven by increased demand and price.
INOmax net sales decreased $3.7 million, or 5.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, driven primarily by continued competition in the U.S. from alternative nitric oxide products, which could continue to adversely affect our ability to successfully maximize the value of INOmax and have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Declines in the U.S. are partially offset by volume growth in Japan. Following the successful introduction of the INOmax EVOLVE DS device pilot program in 2024, we remain focused on expanding the multi-year rollout of EVOLVE to U.S. hospitals nationwide in order to help meet the needs of neonatal intensive care patients and healthcare professionals by offering improved automation, which enhances safety features, and a streamlined design that elevates the user experience.
Amitiza net sales increased $1.0 million, or 5.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, driven primarily by increased demand in the U.S., partially offset by declines in Japan due to lower price.
Other Products net sales increased $69.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, driven by sales from products acquired in the Business Combination, including primarily Supprelin LA of $17.7 million, Percocet of $15.1 million, Aveed of $12.8 million, Edex of $9.4 million and Testopel of $9.2 million, coupled with an increase in Terlivaz net sales of $3.2 million, compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, driven by continued improvements in hospital adoptions resulting from ongoing engagement with healthcare providers emphasizing the importance of early patient identification and treatment initiation. Net sales from certain of our Other Products have been and will continue to be negatively impacted by competitive pressures and other factors, which could unfavorably impact future net sales of these products.
License revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 primarily represents royalties on net sales under certain license arrangements acquired in the Business Combination.

Cost of Sales and Operating Expenses
The table below sets forth a comparison of cost of sales and operating expenses for the relevant periods presented. Amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect the inclusion of costs for the Business Combination.

________
NM indicates that the percentage change is not meaningful or is greater than 100%.
Cost of sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $186.6 million compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, driven primarily by higher inventory fair value step up amortization of $112.8 million, higher intangible asset amortization of $45.7 million. The remaining increase is primarily attributable to costs associated with products acquired in the Business Combination of $22.0 million and, to a lesser degree, increased costs related to Acthar driven by increased patient demand and SelfJect uptake.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $95.7 million, or 83.3% compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by increased compensation costs of $32.4 million due to higher headcount as a result of the Business Combination, coupled with higher advertising costs of $25.4 million, and increased third-party professional services costs of $19.7 million, partially offset by lower litigation settlement costs of $3.3 million. The remaining increase reflects higher operating costs across a wide range of spend categories following the Business Combination, including information technology, utilities, insurance, payroll and other taxes, and employee benefits costs, among others. SG&A expense may increase in future periods as a result of changes in the probability assessment or satisfaction of vesting conditions associated with certain equity awards. For example, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, we granted performance‑based equity awards that vest solely upon the occurrence of certain event criteria. While no share‑based compensation expense has been recognized for these awards to date because the event is not considered probable at this time, the occurrence of such an event or a determination that the event becomes probable could result in the recognition of material incremental compensation expense in a future period. The timing and amount of any such expense would depend on the facts and circumstances existing at that time.
Combination, integration, and other related expenses. Combination, integration, and other related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, decreased $0.7 million, or 3.4% compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025. The expenses include legal, financial, other advisory and consulting costs, which primarily relate to shareholder matters, integration planning and execution, and regulatory matters associated with the Business Combination.
Research and development expenses. R&D expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $7.9 million, or 51.6% compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025 driven primarily by investments to advance certain Xiaflex pipeline development programs for potential future indications, including plantar fibromatosis and hammer toe.
Restructuring credits, net. During the three months ended March 28, 2025, we recognized a $2.0 million benefit related to a vendor refund associated with the wind down of production of StrataGraft.

Interest expense. Interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $18.4 million, or 56.4% compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, driven by higher average outstanding debt balances reflecting the assumption of Endo’s outstanding debt obligations in connection with the Business Combination, partially offset by lower coupon interests rates on the assumed debt obligations as compared to the “second-out” senior secured takeback term loans due November 2028 entered into on November 14, 2023 and the “second-out” 14.75% senior secured first lien notes issued on November 14, 2023.
Interest income. Interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $1.3 million, or 31.7% compared to the three months ended March 28, 2025, primarily related to interest received on money market accounts.
Other income (expense), net. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 28, 2025, we recorded other income of $3.9 million and other expense of $11.9 million, respectively. Other income during the three months ended March 31, 2026 primarily reflects $3.5 million of income related to our transition services agreements in connection with the Separation and the sale of the Company’s Therakos business on August 3, 2024 (“Therakos Divestiture”). The three months ended March 28, 2025 included $6.2 million of unrealized losses on equity securities related to our investment in Silence Therapeutics plc and Panbela Therapeutics, Inc., a $6.2 million loss related to the final working capital settlement in connection with the Therakos Divestiture, and a $2.6 million unrealized loss related to changes in fair value of certain derivative assets and liabilities as discussed further in Note 14 of the Notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. These losses were partially offset by $3.0 million of income related to our transition services agreement in connection with the Therakos Divestiture.
Income tax (expense) benefit. We recognized an income tax expense of $4.8 million and tax benefit of $1.7 million on losses from continuing operations before income taxes of $108.7 million and $77.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 28, 2025, respectively. This resulted in an effective tax rate of (4.4)% and 2.2%, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the Irish statutory tax rate of 12.5%, predominately due to statutory rate differences across the jurisdictions in which we operate, net of valuation allowances, applied to pretax earnings which includes the impacts of inventory step-up and intangible amortization expense. The effective tax rate is also affected by non-deductible expenses, including interest, compensation, and costs associated with the Business Combination, integration, and other related activity. See Note 6. Income Taxes of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for further details.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and access to our $400 million revolving credit facility, net of $4.2 million of outstanding standby letters of credit, which remains undrawn at March 31, 2026. Cash and cash equivalents, which primarily consisted of bank deposits and money market accounts, totaled $824.9 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $812.8 million at December 31, 2025. Our principal liquidity requirements include working capital, capital expenditures, principal and interest payments associated with our indebtedness, lease obligations and purchase obligations, and our obligation related to the Acthar Gel-related litigation settlement.
From time to time, we have also completed acquisitions, including licensing agreements, and divestitures, which have significantly affected our liquidity and financial position. Examples of such transactions include the Business Combination and the Separation, completed during fiscal 2025. The net effect of these transactions is expected to result in an increase in future cash flows from operations, which will be used to fund our operations and to make future debt principal and interest payments associated with our increased indebtedness. There can be no assurances that anticipated benefits of the Business Combination and the Separation will be realized fully within expected timeframes or at all, which could materially impact our business, cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.
We have historically generated, and expect to continue to generate, positive cash flows from operations. We expect foreseeable liquidity and capital resource requirements to be met through existing cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows from operations, as well as long-term borrowings if needed. We believe that our sources of liquidity are adequate to fund our operations for the next twelve months and beyond the next twelve months. Our ability to fund our capital needs is impacted by our ongoing ability to generate cash from operations and access to capital markets.
A summary of our cash flows from continuing operations is provided in the following table and described in further detail below:

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $23.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was attributable to a net loss of $113.5 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $183.9 million primarily driven by inventory step-up amortization from
23

acquisitions of $100.2 million coupled with depreciation and amortization of $61.0 million, share-based compensation expense of $11.0 million, inventory provisions of $4.1 million, and deferred income taxes of $3.6 million, partially offset by $47.3 million of net cash outflow from changes in working capital. The change in working capital was primarily driven by a $54.1 million cash outflow related to accounts receivable, net and a $71.9 million cash outflow related to inventory, partially offset by a $66.9 million net cash inflow related to other assets and liabilities.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $23.2 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025 was attributable to a loss from continuing operations of $75.3 million, adjusted for non-cash items of $24.3 million primarily driven by depreciation and amortization of $12.4 million, share-based compensation of $9.0 million, and inventory provisions of $2.6 million, net of changes in deferred income taxes of $9.8 million and $74.2 million of cash inflow from net changes in working capital. The change in working capital was primarily driven by a $28.5 million decrease in inventory, a $12.6 million increase in accounts payable, a $12.7 million net cash inflow from income taxes, and a $20.7 million net cash inflow related to other assets and liabilities.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities of $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by capital expenditures of $10.4 million, which were partially offset by $5.9 million of other investing cash inflows primarily related to proceeds from the sale of shares of Silence Therapeutics. Comparatively, net cash used in investing activities of $10.3 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025 was primarily driven by $10.6 million of capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities of $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily attributable to $3.8 million of debt repayments. Comparatively, net cash used in financing activities of $3.1 million for the three months ended March 28, 2025 was primarily attributable to $1.9 million of deemed share repurchases in connection with the vesting of restricted share units to satisfy minimum statutory tax withholding obligations, and $1.0 million of debt repayments.
Cash Requirements and Sources from Existing Contractual Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026, our material cash requirements from known contractual obligations included debt obligations, legal settlements, lease obligations, purchase obligations and other liabilities reflected on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. See “Cash Requirements and Sources from Existing Contractual Arrangements” in Part II, Item 7 “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information; see also the discussion under “Indebtedness” below for additional information on changes to our long-term debt obligations.
Indebtedness
As of March 31, 2026, total drawn debt principal was $2,477.5 million compared to $2,481.3 million as of December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, the total drawn and undrawn debt principal of existing facilities consists of: (i) an undrawn (net of $4.2 million of outstanding standby letters of credit) revolving credit facility with a maturity date of April 23, 2029 and commitments equal to $400 million, (ii) a term facility with a maturity date of April 23, 2031, with an outstanding principal balance of $1,477.5 million, and (iii) senior secured notes due April 2031 with an outstanding principal balance of $1,000.0 million.
Acthar Gel-Related Settlement
As of March 31, 2026, we have accrued $150.5 million related to our obligation related to the Acthar Gel litigation settlement and we are required to make a $33.7 million payment, inclusive of interest, upon the four-year anniversary of the Acthar Gel-related litigation settlement in June 2026.
Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including governmental investigations, environmental matters, product liability matters, patent infringement claims, antitrust matters, securities class action lawsuits, personal injury claims, employment disputes, contractual and other commercial disputes, and other legal proceedings, in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, we believe, unless otherwise indicated, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of any particular matter, or matters that have the same legal or factual issues, would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Refer to Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for a description of the litigation, legal and administrative proceedings and claims as of March 31, 2026.
Guarantees
In disposing of assets or businesses, we have from time to time provided representations, warranties and indemnities to cover various risks and liabilities, including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to
24

investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities related to periods prior to disposition. We assess the probability of potential liabilities related to such representations, warranties and indemnities and adjust potential liabilities as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. We believe, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolutions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. See Note 19. As of March 31, 2026, there were no material changes in our guarantees or non-indebtedness obligations from those disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K. Refer to Note 19. Guarantees of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2025 Form 10-K for additional information.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026, we had various letters of credit, guarantees, and surety bonds totaling $202.0 million, including approximately $37.5 million related to Par Health. In connection with the Separation, we and Par Health entered into agreements pursuant to which each party is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the removal of the other party and its respective subsidiaries as guarantor of, or obligor for, certain indebtedness and other obligations following the Separation. To the extent we cannot be released from any such guarantee or obligation, Par Health is required to indemnify us for any losses, costs, or exposure arising from such guarantee. Certain of these guarantees require that we maintain cash collateral, which is classified as restricted cash and is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets on our unaudited consolidated balance sheets. There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that are material or reasonably likely to become material to our financial condition or results of operations.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses.
Our critical accounting estimates are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no significant changes to the policies or in the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates used in the critical accounting policies disclosed in our 2025 Form 10-K.
As discussed in our 2025 Form 10-K, as part of our strategic planning process, we periodically evaluate alternatives to enhance shareholder value, including the potential sale of certain assets or businesses. No assets met the criteria for held for sale reporting as of March 31, 2026; however, we are currently pursuing the potential divestiture of the Percocet business. While no assurance can be given that a transaction will be completed, or as to the timing or terms of any such transaction, these strategic initiatives may represent changes in circumstances that could impact the estimated fair values of the related assets. If the estimated fair value of these assets is less than their carrying value, we may be required to record an impairment charge in the future. Any such charge could be material and could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note 2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report for a discussion regarding recently issued accounting standards.

In addition to the above considerations, see the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of our 2025 Form 10-K and subsequent filings with the SEC that identify and describe in more detail the risks and uncertainties to which our businesses are subject. There may be other risks and uncertainties that we are unable to predict at this time or that we currently do not expect to have a material adverse effect on our business.
These forward-looking statements are made as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements other than as required by law. Given these uncertainties, one should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our operations include activities in the U.S. and countries outside of the U.S. These operations expose us to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. We monitor and manage these financial exposures as an integral part of our overall risk management program. We do not utilize derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our variable-rate debt instruments, which bear interest based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus margin. As of March 31, 2026, our outstanding variable rate debt included $1,477.5 million on our term loan facilities. Assuming a one percent increase in the applicable interest rates, in excess of applicable minimum floors, interest expense for fiscal 2026 would increase by approximately $13.7 million.
27

The remaining outstanding debt as of March 31, 2026 is fixed-rate debt. Changes in market interest rates generally affect the fair value of fixed-rate debt, but do not impact earnings or cash flows.
Currency Risk
Certain net sales and costs of our international operations are denominated in the local currency of the respective countries. As such, profits from these subsidiaries may be impacted by fluctuations in the value of these local currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. We also have significant intercompany financing arrangements that may result in gains and losses in our results of operations. In an effort to mitigate the impact of currency exchange rate effects we may hedge certain operational and intercompany transactions; however, our hedging strategies may not fully offset gains and losses recognized in our results of operations.
The unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations is exposed to currency risk from intercompany financing arrangements, which primarily consist of intercompany debt and intercompany cash pooling, where the denominated currency of the transaction differs from the functional currency of one or more of our subsidiaries. The aggregate potential unfavorable impact from a hypothetical 10.0% adverse change in foreign exchange rates was $0.5 million as of March 31, 2026, with all other variables held constant. This hypothetical loss does not reflect any hypothetical benefits that would be derived from hedging activities, including cash holdings in similar foreign currencies, that we have historically utilized to mitigate our exposure to movements in foreign exchange rates.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of that date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 10.1
Keenova Therapeutics plc
2025 Stock and Incentive Plan (“Plan”)

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
OF
RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD
RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD (“Award”) granted on _______, 202__ (the “Grant Date”).
1.Grant of Restricted Units. Keenova Therapeutics plc (the “Company”) has granted you [____] Restricted Units subject to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions and the Plan. The Company will hold the Restricted Units in a bookkeeping account on your behalf until such units become payable or are forfeited or cancelled.
2.Amount and Form of Payment. Each Restricted Unit represents one (1) Ordinary Share and vested Restricted Units will be paid solely in Shares, subject to Section 10. Any Share issued pursuant to a Restricted Unit shall be paid up to its par value on issuance by a subsidiary of the Company or as otherwise determined by the Company.
3.Dividends. Each unvested Restricted Unit will be credited with a Dividend Equivalent Unit (“DEU”) for any cash or stock dividends distributed by the Company on an Ordinary Share. DEUs will be calculated at the same dividend rate paid to other holders of Ordinary Shares and will be adjusted and vest in accordance with the adjustment and vesting provisions applicable to the underlying Restricted Units and shall be paid as of the same date payment for the Restricted Units occurs.
4.Vesting. The Restricted Units shall vest in three equal installments on each of the first three (3) anniversaries of _____ (the “Vesting Commencement Date,” and each such anniversary, a “Vesting Date”), subject to your continued service through the applicable Vesting Date. Payment of vested Restricted Units and associated DEUs shall be made no later than sixty (60) days following the applicable Vesting Date. If your employment terminates before full (100%) vesting, you will forfeit the unvested portion of Restricted Units and associated DEUs. However, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Plan, if your employment terminates due to death, Disability, or a termination by the Company without Cause, Restricted Units and associated DEUs subject to this Award will become vested and shall be paid to the extent set forth in Section 5 or Section 6, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of Section 5.3(a) of the Plan apply to this Award.
5.Disability or Death. If your employment terminates as a result of your death or a Disability, then you will become fully vested in all Restricted Units subject to this Award on the date of your death or Termination of Employment due to Disability. Payment of such vested amounts shall be made within 30 days of your Termination of Employment; provided that you shall not have the right, directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment.
6.Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause. Notwithstanding the vesting provisions described in Section 4, upon your Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause, a number of Restricted Units equal to the product of the number of Restricted Units subject to this Award multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months between the Vesting Commencement Date and your



Termination of Employment and the denominator of which is thirty-six, minus any Restricted Units subject to this Award that previously vested, will become vested as of the effective date of your release of claims in the form provided by the Company (the “Release”) (which Release must become effective and irrevocable within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Employment). Payment of such vested amounts shall be made within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Employment; provided that you shall not have the right, directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment.
If you are party to an employment agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary and such employment agreement provides for benefits on a termination of employment for “Good Reason,” a termination of your employment for Good Reason under such employment agreement shall constitute a termination without Cause for purposes of Section 4 and this Section 6.
7.Change in Control. To the extent not already vested, the Restricted Units will become fully vested on a Change in Control, subject to your continued service through a Change in Control. Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after the Change in Control.
8.Withholdings. Prior to the issuance or delivery of any Shares subject to this Award, the Company may withhold a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value as of such date equal to the amount necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements (e.g., income tax, social insurance, payroll tax and payment on account), as determined in good faith by the Company, provided, however, that prior to withholding Shares, the Company shall give you a reasonable, advance opportunity to elect to satisfy such withholding obligations via making a cash payment to the Company in lieu of having Shares withheld or via such other mechanism as may be agreed by the Company. If, at any time after the Grant Date, you become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Company may be required to withhold or account for applicable tax requirements in the various jurisdictions. Furthermore, if the Shares subject to this Award vest under circumstances where they have not otherwise been fully paid-up in accordance with the requirements of Irish law, the Company or any Subsidiary may require you to pay the par value of each Share which vests hereunder at the time of such vesting. If the Company or any Subsidiary cannot withhold or account for all taxes associated with this Award, or obtain payment of the par value of each Share that vests hereunder, by application of the means described herein, then, by accepting this Award, you agree that you will pay to the Company or any Subsidiary all amounts necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements or the requirement that Shares be issued on a fully paid-up basis and acknowledge that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares subject to this Award or delay such issuance or delivery of the proceeds from the sale of such Shares, if you do not comply with such obligations.
9.Transfer of Award. You may not transfer this Award or any interest in Restricted Units except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to your spouse, or your lineal descendants (whether by blood or adoption) or any trust, family partnership or family limited liability company, the sole beneficiaries, partners or members of which are you, your spouse or your lineal descendants (whether by blood or adoption) (each, a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that, following any such transfer, the Permitted Transferee shall be bound by all of these Terms and Conditions and the Plan, and any such terms and conditions that relate to termination of employment or service shall apply to such Permitted Transferee upon your termination of employment or service. Any other attempt to transfer this Award or any interest in Restricted Units is null and void.
10.Restrictions on Payment of Shares. Payment of Shares for Restricted Units is subject to the conditions that, to the extent required at the time of delivery of such Shares:
2


(i)The Shares covered by this Award will be duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, on a nationally recognized stock exchange; and
(ii)A Registration Statement under the United States Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the Shares will be effective or an exemption from registration will apply.
If there is any registration, qualification, exchange control or other legal requirement imposed upon this Award or the Shares subject to this Award by applicable securities or exchange control laws (including rulings or regulations issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency with jurisdiction over the issuance of this Award or the Shares subject to this Award), the Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares subject to this Award before the Company, in its sole good faith discretion, has determined that either (a) it has satisfied any such requirements or has received the requisite approval from the appropriate governmental agency; or (b) an exemption from such registration or exchange control requirement applies. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you understand that the Company is under no obligation to register this Award or the Shares subject to this Award with any governmental agency or to seek approval from any governmental agency for the issuance or sale of Shares subject to this Award.
11.Disposition of Securities. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you have read and understand the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and are aware of and understand your obligations under United States federal securities laws with respect to trading in the Company’s securities.
12.Governing Terms. The vesting of Restricted Units, the disposition of any Shares received on or after such vesting, and the treatment of any gains received upon such disposition are subject to the terms of the Plan and any rules that the Committee, in its good faith and reasonable discretion, prescribes. The Plan document, as amended from time to time, is incorporated into these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions shall constitute the Award Certificate referred to in the Plan. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms used in these Terms and Conditions are defined in the Plan. If there is any conflict between the terms of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions, these Terms and Conditions shall govern. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge receipt of the Plan, as in effect on the Grant Date.
13.Executive Financial Recoupment Program. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award to the contrary, any Shares issued hereunder, and/or any amount received with respect to any sale of any such Shares, shall be subject to potential cancellation, recovery, repayment, or other action in accordance with the terms of the Company’s policy with respect to its Executive Financial Recoupment Program, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Recoupment Policy”), Section 4.1 of the Plan and applicable securities laws. By accepting this Award, you agree and consent to the Company’s application, implementation, and enforcement of (a) the Recoupment Policy, (b) Section 4.1 of the Plan, and (c) any provision of applicable law relating to the cancellation, recovery, or repayment of compensation under this Award, and expressly agree that the Company may take such actions as are necessary or desirable to effectuate the Recoupment Policy, Section 4.1 of the Plan, any similar policy, or applicable law without further consent or action being required of you. To the extent the terms of this Award and the Recoupment Policy (or similar policy or applicable securities laws) conflict, the terms of such policy shall govern.
14.Personal Data. To comply with applicable law and to administer this Award appropriately, the Company and its agents may accumulate, hold and process your personal data
3


and/or “sensitive personal data” within the meaning of applicable law (“Personal Data”). Personal Data includes, but is not limited to, the information provided to you as part of the grant package and any changes thereto (e.g., details of Restricted Units, including amounts awarded, unvested, or vested), other appropriate personal and financial data about you (e.g., name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, nationality, job title, reason for termination of employment and social security, social insurance or other identification number), and information about your participation in the Plan and Shares obtained under the Plan from time to time. By accepting this Award, you give your explicit consent to your employer’s and the Company’s accumulating, transferring, and processing Personal Data as necessary or appropriate for Plan administration. Your Personal Data will be retained only as long as is necessary to administer your participation in the Plan. If applicable, by accepting this Award, you also give your explicit consent to the Company’s transfer of Personal Data outside the country in which you work or reside and to the United States of America where the same level of data protection laws may not apply as in your home country. The legal persons for whom your Personal Data are intended (and by whom your Personal Data may be transferred, processed or exchanged) include the Company, its Subsidiaries (or former Subsidiaries as are deemed necessary), the outside Plan administrator, their respective agents, and any other person that the Company retains or utilizes for compensation planning or Plan administration purposes. You have the right to request a list of the names and addresses of any potential recipients of your Personal Data and to review and correct your Personal Data by contacting your local Human Resources Representative. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge your understanding that the transfer of the information outlined here is important to Plan administration and that failure to consent to the transmission of such information may limit or prohibit your participation in the Plan. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you are providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis and that, if you do not consent or if you later seek to revoke your consent, it will adversely impact the ability of the Company to administer your Awards but it will not adversely impact your employment status or service with your employer.
15.No Contract of Employment or Promise of Future Grants. By accepting this Award, you agree that you are bound by the terms of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions and acknowledge that this Award is granted in the Company’s sole discretion and is not considered part of any employment contract or your ordinary or expected salary or other compensation for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary. You further agree that this Award, and your Plan participation, do not form, and will not be interpreted as forming, an employment contract or guarantee of employment with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company, in its sole discretion, voluntarily established the Plan and may amend or terminate it at any time pursuant to the terms of the Plan. You understand that the grant of restricted units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of any restricted units, or benefits in lieu of restricted units, even if restricted units have been granted repeatedly in the past and that all decisions with respect to future grants will be in the Company’s sole discretion. By accepting this Award, you also acknowledge that this Award and any gains received hereunder are extraordinary items and are not considered part of your salary or compensation for purposes of any pension or retirement benefits or for purposes of calculating any termination, severance, redundancy, resignation, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, life or accident insurance benefits or similar payments. Neither this Award, nor any gains received hereunder, is intended to replace any pension rights or compensation. If the Company or Subsidiary terminates your employment for any reason, you agree that you will not be entitled to damages or compensation for breach of contract, dismissal (in any circumstances, including unfair dismissal) or compensation for loss of office or otherwise to any sum, Shares, Restricted Units or other benefits to compensate you for the loss or diminution in value of any actual or prospective rights, benefits or expectation under or in relation to the Plan, except as otherwise provided in this Award or the terms of your employment agreement, if any.

16.Limitations. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan grants to you any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the Company or Subsidiary’s right to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, subject to applicable law. Payment of Shares is not secured by a trust, insurance contract or other funding medium, and you do not have any interest in any fund or specific Company or Subsidiary asset by reason of this Award.

These Terms and Conditions may not be modified, altered or changed except by the Committee (or its delegate) in writing and pursuant to the terms of the Plan; provided, however, that the Company has the unilateral authority to amend these Terms and Conditions without your consent to the extent necessary, as determined in its good faith and reasonable discretion, to comply with applicable securities registration or exchange control requirements and to impose additional requirements on this Award or Shares subject to this Award if the Company in good faith reasonably deems it necessary to comply with applicable law and using all reasonable efforts to endeavor not to diminish the intended economic benefits of this Award.
18.Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which will remain in full force and effect. Moreover, if any provision is found to be excessively broad in duration, scope or covered activity, the provision will be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.

To the extent that the Company determines that you would be subject to the additional taxes or penalties imposed on certain nonqualified deferred compensation plans pursuant to Section 409A as a result of any provision of these Terms and Conditions, such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to avoid application of such additional taxes or penalties. The nature of any such amendment shall be determined by the Company.

22.Governing Law. This Award and these Terms and Conditions shall be construed, interpreted and the rights of the parties determined in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
23.Put Right. Provided the Company’s ordinary shares are not listed on a national securities exchange (within the meaning of the U.S. securities laws), during the 90-day period following each of (a) the 90th day following the third (3rd) anniversary of the Grant Date and (b) the 90th day following the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Grant Date (each, a “Put Period”), you will have the option to require the Company (via written notice to the Company (the “Put Notice”)) to repurchase either 50% or 100% of the Shares you receive in settlement of the Restricted Units under this Award (the “Put Shares”), provided that you have not been terminated for Cause; and provided further that your heirs and representatives (if you are incapacitated following Disability) shall have the right to exercise the Put Right in the event of your death or Disability) and your compliance with any applicable restrictive covenants in all material respects through any such purchase date (the “Put Right”). Following your exercise of the Put Right, the Company shall be required to repurchase the Put Shares within 90 days following the Put Notice at a price equal to the Fair Market Value on the date of repurchase; provided that if the Company determines reasonably and in good faith that a Repurchase Prohibition exists, then the Company shall have the right, upon written notice to you, at the Company’s election, to (a) delay the consummation of the repurchase until up to forty-five (45) days following the date that the Company determines in good faith that such Repurchase Prohibition ceases to apply, (b) consummate the repurchase but delay the payment of the purchase price in respect of the Put Shares until the expiration of such forty-five (45) day period or (c) consummate the repurchase but make payment of the purchase price in respect of the Put Shares subject thereto in the form of a promissory note, bearing interest at the prime rate and payable upon the earliest to occur of the Repurchase Prohibition ceasing to apply, the third anniversary of the date of the Put Notice, a Change in Control or an initial public offering of the Company, and containing such other customary terms and conditions as may be determined reasonably and in good faith, by the Company at the direction of the Board. On the date of the Put Notice and no more than fifteen (15) days prior to the purchase date, you shall (i) make the customary representations and warranties in connection with the redemption (if applicable) and sale of the Put Shares, including that you (x) have good and marketable title to the applicable Put Shares and (y) have due power and authority to execute and deliver any documents to sell, transfer, assign and deliver the Put Shares and (ii) transfer the Put Shares subject to the Put Notice to the Company, free and clear of all liens, other than liens in favor of the Company or its affiliates.

2025 Stock and Incentive Plan (“Plan”)
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
OF
PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD
PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD (“Award”) granted on ______, ___ (the “Grant Date”).
1.Grant of Performance Restricted Units. Keenova Therapeutics plc (the “Company”) has granted to you a target number of [____] Performance Restricted Units subject to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions and the Plan. The Company will hold the Performance Restricted Units in a bookkeeping account on your behalf until such units become payable or are forfeited or cancelled.
2.Amount and Form of Payment. Each Performance Restricted Unit represents one (1) Ordinary Share and any Performance Restricted Units that vest pursuant to Section 4 will be paid solely in Shares, subject to Section 10. Notwithstanding anything contrary in the Plan, any fractional Shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share for purposes of payment. Any Share issued pursuant to a Performance Restricted Unit shall be paid up to its par value on issuance by a subsidiary of the Company or as otherwise determined by the Company.
3.Dividends. Each unvested Performance Restricted Unit will be credited with a Dividend Equivalent Unit (“DEU”) for any cash or stock dividends distributed by the Company on an Ordinary Share. DEUs will be calculated at the same dividend rate paid to other holders of Ordinary Shares and will be adjusted and vest in accordance with the adjustment and vesting provisions applicable to the underlying Performance Restricted Units.
4.Vesting.
(i)Except as provided below, Performance Restricted Units, to the extent earned in accordance with the terms of Appendix A, will vest on the last day of the Performance Cycle, including, for the avoidance of doubt, if the last day of the Performance Cycle occurs as a result of a Change in Control, provided that, except as provided herein, you are an Employee on the last day of the Performance Cycle. The target number of Performance Restricted Units specified in these Terms and Conditions shall be adjusted at the end of the Performance Cycle based on the attainment level of achievement for the Performance Cycle (as described in Appendix A). Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after the Committee Certification Date (as defined in Appendix A), but in no event later than March 15 of the year that follows the last day of the Performance Cycle.


(ii)If your employment terminates before the last day of the Performance Cycle, you will forfeit the Performance Restricted Units and associated DEUs. However, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Plan, if your employment terminates due to death, Disability, or a termination by the Company without Cause, Performance Restricted Units and associated DEUs subject to this Award shall, subject to applicable performance achievement, become vested to the extent set forth in Section 5 or 6, as applicable, and such vested amounts shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 or 6, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of Section 5.3(a) of the Plan apply to this Award.
5.    Disability or Death. Notwithstanding the vesting provisions described in Section 4, if your employment terminates as a result of your death or Disability, the Performance Restricted Units will remain outstanding and will be eligible to fully vest, based on actual performance during the Performance Cycle, at the same time and in the same manner as the vesting of performance restricted units held by active employees that are attributable to such Performance Cycle. Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after the Committee Certification Date, but in no event later than March 15 of the year that follows the last day of the Performance Cycle.
6.    Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause. Notwithstanding the vesting provisions described in Section 4, upon the termination of your employment by the Company without Cause that occurs before the end of the Performance Cycle, but subject to your execution of a release of claims in the form provided by the Company (the “Release”) (which Release must become effective and irrevocable within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Employment), you will be eligible to vest in a number of Performance Restricted Units subject to this Award equal to the product of the number of Performance Restricted Units that vest in accordance with Appendix A based on the Company’s actual performance level of the performance goals set forth in Appendix A during the Performance Cycle, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months between the first day of the Performance Cycle and your Termination of Employment and the denominator of which is the full number of months in the Performance Cycle. Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after the Committee Certification Date, but in no event later than March 15 of the year that follows the last day of the Performance Cycle.
If you are party to an employment agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary and such employment agreement provides for benefits on a termination of employment for “Good Reason,” a termination of your employment for Good Reason under such employment agreement shall constitute a termination without Cause for purposes of this Section 6.
7.Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control during the Performance Cycle, the Performance Restricted Units shall immediately vest and become non-forfeitable at the target number of Performance Restricted Units granted hereunder, provided, however, that to the extent performance set forth in Appendix A can be determined as of immediately prior to the Change in Control or a date reasonably proximate thereto, the number of Performance Restricted
2


Units that shall vest shall be the greater of the target number of Performance Restricted Units granted hereunder or the number determined in accordance with Appendix A prior to the Change in Control. Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after the Change in Control.
8.Withholdings. Prior to the issuance or delivery of any Shares subject to this Award, the Company may withhold a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value as of such date equal to the amount necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements (e.g., income tax, social insurance, payroll tax and payment on account), as determined in good faith by the Company provided, however, that prior to withholding Shares, the Company shall give you a reasonable, advance opportunity to elect to satisfy such withholding obligations via making a cash payment to the Company in lieu of having Shares withheld or via such other mechanism as may be agreed by the Company. If, at any time after the Grant Date, you become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Company may be required to withhold or account for applicable tax requirements in the various jurisdictions. Furthermore, if the Shares subject to this Award vest under circumstances where they have not otherwise been fully paid-up in accordance with the requirements of Irish law, the Company or any Subsidiary may require you to pay the par value of each Share which vests hereunder at the time of such vesting. If the Company or any Subsidiary cannot withhold or account for all taxes associated with this Award, or obtain payment of the par value of each Share that vests hereunder, by application of the means described herein, then, by accepting this Award, you agree that you will pay to the Company or any Subsidiary all amounts necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements or the requirement that Shares be issued on a fully paid-up basis and acknowledge that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares subject to this Award or delay such issuance or delivery of the proceeds from the sale of such Shares, if you do not comply with such obligations.
9.Transfer of Award. You may not transfer this Award or any interest in Performance Restricted Units except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to your spouse, or your lineal descendants (whether by blood or adoption) or any trust, family partnership or family limited liability company, the sole beneficiaries, partners or members of which are you, your spouse, or your lineal descendants (whether by blood or adoption) (each, a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that, following any such transfer, the Permitted Transferee shall be bound by all of these Terms and Conditions and the Plan, and any such terms and conditions that relate to termination of employment or service shall apply to such Permitted Transferee upon your termination of employment or service. Any other attempt to transfer this Award or any interest in Performance Restricted Units is null and void.
10.    Restrictions on Payment of Shares. Payment of Shares for Performance Restricted Units is subject to the conditions that, to the extent required at the time of delivery of such Shares:

By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you understand that the Company is under no obligation to register this Award or the Shares subject to this Award with any governmental agency or to seek approval from any governmental agency for the issuance or sale of Shares subject to this Award.

By accepting this Award, you agree and consent to the Company’s application, implementation, and enforcement of (a) the Recoupment Policy, (b) Section 4.1 of the Plan, and (c) any provision of applicable law relating to the cancellation, recovery, or repayment of compensation under this Award, and expressly agree that the Company may take such actions as are necessary or desirable to effectuate the Recoupment Policy, Section 4.1 of the Plan, any similar policy, or applicable law without further consent or action being required of you.

14.    Personal Data. To comply with applicable law and to administer this Award appropriately, the Company and its agents may accumulate, hold and process your personal data
4


and/or “sensitive personal data” within the meaning of applicable law (“Personal Data”). Personal Data includes, but is not limited to, the information provided to you as part of the grant package and any changes thereto (e.g., details of Performance Restricted Units, including amounts awarded, unvested or vested), other appropriate personal and financial data about you (e.g., name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, nationality, job title, reason for termination of employment, and social security, social insurance or other identification number), and information about your participation in the Plan and Shares obtained under the Plan from time to time. By accepting this Award, you give your explicit consent to your employer’s and the Company’s accumulating, transferring, and processing Personal Data as necessary or appropriate for Plan administration. Your Personal Data will be retained only as long as is necessary to administer your participation in the Plan. If applicable, by accepting this Award, you also give your explicit consent to the Company’s transfer of Personal Data outside the country in which you work or reside and to the United States of America where the same level of data protection laws may not apply as in your home country. The legal persons for whom your Personal Data are intended (and by whom your Personal Data may be transferred, processed or exchanged) include the Company, its Subsidiaries (or former Subsidiaries as are deemed necessary), the outside Plan administrator, their respective agents, and any other person that the Company retains or utilizes for compensation planning or Plan administration purposes.

You further agree that this Award, and your Plan participation, do not form, and will not be interpreted as forming, an employment contract or guarantee of employment with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company, in its sole discretion, voluntarily established the Plan and may amend or terminate it at any time pursuant to the terms of the Plan. You understand that the grant of performance restricted units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of any performance restricted units, or benefits in lieu of performance restricted units, even if performance restricted units have been granted repeatedly in the past and that all decisions with respect to future grants will be in the Company’s sole discretion. By accepting this Award, you also acknowledge that this Award and any gains received hereunder are extraordinary items and are not considered part of your salary or compensation for purposes of any pension or retirement benefits or for purposes of calculating any termination, severance, redundancy, resignation, end of service payments, bonuses, long-
5


service awards, life or accident insurance benefits or similar payments. Neither this Award, nor any gains received hereunder, is intended to replace any pension rights or compensation. If the Company or Subsidiary terminates your employment for any reason, you agree that you will not be entitled to damages or compensation for breach of contract, dismissal (in any circumstances, including unfair dismissal) or compensation for loss of office or otherwise to any sum, Shares, Performance Restricted Units or other benefits to compensate you for the loss or diminution in value of any actual or prospective rights, benefits or expectation under or in relation to the Plan, except as otherwise provided in this Award or the terms of your employment agreement, if any.
16.    Limitations. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan grants to you any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the Company or Subsidiary’s right to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, subject to applicable law. Payment of Shares is not secured by a trust, insurance contract or other funding medium, and you do not have any interest in any fund or specific Company or Subsidiary asset by reason of this Award. You have no rights as a stockholder of the Company pursuant to this Award until Shares are actually delivered to you.
17.    Entire Agreement and Amendment. These Terms and Conditions, the Plan, the terms of any employment agreement between you and the Company that specifically reference the treatment of equity awards, and other Company policies specifically referred to herein constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Award. These Terms and Conditions supersede any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award, other than with respect to the terms of any employment agreement between you and the Company that specifically reference the treatment of equity awards. These Terms and Conditions may not be modified, altered or changed except by the Committee (or its delegate) in writing and pursuant to the terms of the Plan; provided, however, that the Company has the unilateral authority to amend these Terms and Conditions without your consent to the extent necessary, as determined in its good faith and reasonable discretion, to comply with applicable securities registration or exchange control requirements and to impose additional requirements on this Award or Shares subject to this Award if the Company in good faith reasonably deems it necessary to comply with applicable law and using all reasonable efforts to endeavor not to diminish the intended economic benefits of this Award.
18.    Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which will remain in full force and effect. Moreover, if any provision is found to be excessively broad in duration, scope or covered activity, the provision will be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.
19.    Waiver. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that a waiver by the Company of any breach by you of a provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not operate or be construed as a waiver by the Company of any other provision of these Terms and Conditions or of a subsequent breach.
20.    Notices. By accepting this Award, you agree to receive documents, notices and any other communications relating to your participation in the Plan in writing by regular mail to
6


your last known address on file with your employer, the Company or Subsidiary or any outside Plan administrator, or by electronic means, including by e-mail, through an online system maintained by any outside Plan administrator, or by a posting on the Company’s intranet website or on an online system or website maintained by any outside Plan administrator.

Section 6.05 By the Executive without Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement and the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time effective upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Company; provided, that the Company may, in its sole discretion, within five (5) days of its receipt of such notice, waive such notice period and accelerate the date of the Executive’s termination to any date that occurs following the Company’s receipt of such notice without changing the characterization of such termination as a resignation, even if such date is prior to the date specified in such notice, and any pay in lieu of such notice period or portion thereof that the Company has so waived is capped at thirty (30) days.




Section 6.06 By the Executive with Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement effective upon written notice to the Company with Good Reason (as defined below).

(b) directly or indirectly solicit or recruit, on the Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Business, the services of, or hire or engage, or interfere with the Company Group’s relationship with, any individual who is (or, at any time during the previous twelve (12) months, was) an employee, independent contractor or director of the Company Group, or solicit any of the Company Group’s then-current employees, independent contractors or directors to terminate services with the Company Group;

(c) directly or indirectly, on the Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Business, recruit or otherwise solicit for a Competing Business, any customer, client, distributor, vendor, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of the Company Group, or encourage or induce any such Person to terminate its arrangement with the Company Group or otherwise change or interfere with its relationship with the Company Group.

The Restricted Period shall be tolled during (and shall be deemed automatically extended by) any period in which the Executive is in violation of any of the provisions of this Section 9.02.

Section 9.03 THE EXECUTIVE REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES THE EXECUTIVE POSSESSES AT THE TIME OF COMMENCEMENT OF EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER ARE SUFFICIENT TO PERMIT THE EXECUTIVE, IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION OF THE EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER, TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD SATISFACTORY TO THE EXECUTIVE WITHOUT VIOLATING ANY PROVISION OF SECTION 8 OR 9 HEREOF, FOR EXAMPLE, BY USING SUCH KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES, OR SOME OF THEM, IN THE SERVICE OF A NON-COMPETITOR.




Section 9.04 Non-Disparagement. The Executive shall not, during the term of the Executive’s employment or at any time thereafter, whether in writing or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage the Company Group, or any current or former directors, officers, or employees of the Company Group, with respect to any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing or orally) statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned parties in an unfavorable light. The Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent Executive from making truthful statements (a) in any legal proceeding or as otherwise required by law, or from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to a governmental agency or entity; (b) when requested by a governmental, regulatory, or similar body or entity; (c) in confidence to a professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional advice; (d) in the course of performing Executive’s duties during the Executive’s term of employment (e.g., performance reviews); or (e) in response to statements, references or characterizations made, directly or indirectly, by the Company Group that are misleading, disparage the Executive, or reflect negatively on the Executive. The Company Group will instruct its executives and Board members not to disparage the Executive to the same extent the Executive is restricted in this Section 9.04.

Section 10. Remedies. It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of any breach of the provisions of Section 8 or 9 of this Agreement, the Company Group shall have the right and remedy, without regard to any other available remedy, to (a) have the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, (b) seek to have issued an injunction restraining any breach or threatened breach without posting of a bond, and (c) seek any and all other remedies available to the Company Group under applicable law; it being understood that any breach of any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 could cause irreparable and material damages to the Company Group (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any loss of the proprietary advantage and trade secrets related to the identity of customers and suppliers), the amount of which cannot be readily determined and as to which the Company Group will not have any adequate remedy at law or in damages. The Executive agrees that any remedy at law for any breach by the Executive of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 would be inadequate, and that the Company Group would be entitled to seek injunctive relief in such a case. If it is ever held that this restriction on the Executive is too onerous and is not necessary for the protection of the Company Group, the Executive agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction may impose such lesser restrictions that may be necessary or appropriate to properly protect the Company Group. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure in one or more instances of the Company Group to insist upon performance of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9, to exercise any right or privilege herein conferred, or the waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 shall not be construed as a subsequent waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect as if no forbearance or waiver had occurred.

Section 11. Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part because of the duration or scope thereof, the Parties hereto agree that said court in making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the Agreement in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.

Section 12. Notices. Any and all notices or other communication required or permitted to be given under any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) upon delivery if personally delivered, (b) three (3) days after deposit if sent by first class registered mail, return receipt requested, (c) one (1) day after deposit if sent by a reputable overnight courier, or (d) upon confirmation if sent by facsimile or email, addressed to the Parties at the addresses set forth below (or at such other address as any Party may specify by notice to all other Parties given as aforesaid):

Each of the Executive and the Company will bear its own legal expenses and will share the arbitration costs equally.

Section 13.10 Representations of Executive; Advice of Counsel.

(a) The Executive represents, warrants, and covenants that as of the Effective Date and the Amendment Date: (i) the Executive has the full right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement and perform the Executive’s obligations hereunder and the Executive’s application for employment with the Company has been truthful and complete, (ii) other than what has been shared with the Company related to Hikma Pharmaceuticals USA Inc., the Executive will not be bound by any agreement that conflicts with or prevents or restricts the full performance of the Executive’s duties and obligations to the Company hereunder during or after the Executive’s employment with the Company, (iii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not result in any breach or violation of, or a default under, any existing obligation, commitment, or agreement to which the Executive is subject, and (iv) the Executive has disclosed to the Company all pending or closed litigations, judgments, or regulatory matters involving the Executive.



(b) Prior to execution of this Agreement, the Executive was advised by the Company of the Executive’s right to seek independent advice from an attorney of the Executive’s own selection regarding this Agreement. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has entered into this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily and with full knowledge and understanding of the provisions of this Agreement after being given the opportunity to consult with counsel. The Executive further represents that in entering into this Agreement, the Executive is not relying on any statements or representations made by any of the Company’s directors, officers, employees, or agents which are not expressly set forth herein, and that the Executive is relying only upon the Executive’s own judgment and any advice provided by the Executive’s attorney.

Section 13.11 Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(a) The Parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder to the extent applicable (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement contravenes Code Section 409A or would cause the Executive to be subject to additional taxes, interest or penalties under Code Section 409A the Executive and the Company shall discuss in good faith modifications to this Agreement in order to mitigate or eliminate such taxes, interest or penalties. In making such modifications the Company and the Executive shall reasonably attempt to maintain the original intent of the applicable provision without contravening the provisions of Code Section 409A to the maximum extent practicable. In no event whatsoever will the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on the Executive under Code Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 13.11(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed on the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period to the Executive in a lump sum with interest during the Delay Period at the prime rate, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(c) With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, to be provided in any other taxable year, provided, that, this clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect, and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.




(d) For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company

Section 13.12 Code Section 280G.

(a) If there is a change of ownership or effective control or change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (a “280G Change in Control”) and any payment or benefit (including payments and benefits pursuant to this Agreement) that the Executive would receive from the Company or otherwise (a “Transaction Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Transaction Payment are paid to the Executive, which of the following two alternative forms of payment would result in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Transaction Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Transaction Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax: (A) payment in full of the entire amount of the Transaction Payment (a “Full Payment”), or (B) payment of only a part of the Transaction Payment so that the Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a “Reduced Payment”, and Executive shall be entitled to payment of whichever amount that shall result in a greater after-tax amount for Executive. For purposes of determining whether to make a Full Payment or a Reduced Payment, the Company shall cause to be taken into account all applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate reasonably applicable to Executive, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes). If a Reduced Payment is made, the reduction in payments and/or benefits will occur in the following order: (1) first, reduction of cash payments, in reverse order of scheduled payment date (or if necessary, to zero), (2) then, reduction of non-cash and non-equity benefits provided to the Executive, on a pro rata basis (or if necessary, to zero) and (3) then, cancellation of the acceleration of vesting of equity award compensation in the reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s equity awards.

(b) Unless the Executive and the Company otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this section shall be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company subject to the approval of the Executive which shall not be unreasonably withheld (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company for all purposes absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any determination by the Accountants under this Section 13.12(b) will take into account the value of any reasonable compensation for services to be rendered by the Executive (or for holding oneself out as available to perform services and refraining from performing services (such as under a covenant not to compete)). The Accountants shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and the Executive as requested by the Company or the Executive. The Executive and the Company shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this section as well as any costs incurred by the Executive with the Accountants for tax planning under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code.

Section 13.13 Recoupment. By executing this Agreement, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the compensation provided under this Agreement is subject to recoupment in accordance with the terms and provisions



of Mallinckrodt’s Executive Financial Recoupment Program as in effect on the Effective Date (the “Recoupment Policy”), attached hereto as Exhibit B, as such Recoupment Policy may be amended by the Board in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 6.8 of the Recoupment Policy.

Exhibit A

RELEASE OF CLAIMS (“Release”)

In connection with the termination of employment of [ · ] (the “Executive”) by [ST Shared Services LLC],4 a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement between Executive and the Company, dated as of [ · ] (the “Employment Agreement”), Executive agrees as follows:
1Release of Claims

In consideration of the payments and benefits described in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (as applicable) of the Employment Agreement (other than Accrued Benefits), to which Executive agrees that Executive is not entitled until and unless Executive executes this Release and it becomes effective in accordance with the terms hereof, Executive, for and on behalf of the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, successors, and assigns, subject to the last sentence of this Section 1, hereby waives and releases any employment, compensation, or benefit-related common law, statutory, or other complaints, claims, charges, or causes of action, both known and unknown, in law or in equity (collectively, the “Claims”), which Executive ever had, now has, or may have against the Company, Mallinckrodt plc, a public company with limited liability incorporated in Ireland, and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, and their equity holders, parents, subsidiaries, successors, assigns, directors, officers, partners, members, managers, employees, trustees (in their official and individual capacities), employee benefit plans and their administrators and fiduciaries (in their official and individual capacities), representatives, or agents, and each of their affiliates, successors, and assigns, (collectively, the “Releasees”) by reason of facts or omissions which have occurred on or prior to the date that Executive signs this Release, including, without limitation, any complaint, charge, or cause of action arising out of Executive’s employment or termination of employment (including failure to provide notice of termination), or any term or condition of that employment, or claim for severance, equity, or equity-based compensation, except as set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (as applicable) of the Employment Agreement, or arising under federal, state, or local laws pertaining to employment, including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA,” a law which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the National Labor Relations Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all as amended, and any other federal, state, and local laws relating to discrimination on the basis of age, sex, or other protected class, all Claims under federal, state, or local laws for express or implied breach of contract, wrongful discharge, defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and any Claims for attorneys’ fees and costs with respect to any of the foregoing.

Executive further agrees that this Release may be pleaded as a full defense to any action, suit, arbitration, or other proceeding covered by the terms hereof which is or may be initiated, prosecuted, or maintained by Executive, Executive’s descendants, dependents, heirs, executors, administrators, or permitted assigns. By signing this Release, Executive acknowledges that Executive intends to waive and release any Claims known or unknown that Executive may have against the Releasees under these and any other laws; provided, that Executive does not waive or release Claims with respect to (i) any rights the Executive may have to enforce the Employment Agreement, (ii) accrued vested benefits or any other benefits remaining due under employee benefit plans of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and applicable law, (iii) any rights to continuation of medical and/or dental coverage in accordance with COBRA, (iv) any claims to coverage under any indemnification agreement or policy or liability insurance arrangement, (v) any rights in vested equity awards and (vi) any other rights that may not be released in accordance with applicable law (collectively, the “Unreleased Claims”).
4 Note to Draft: “Company” to be Mallinckrodt Enterprises LLC for executives for whom that is the employer.





2Proceedings

Executive acknowledges that Executive has not filed any complaint, charge, claim, or proceeding with respect to a Claim, except with respect to an Unreleased Claim, if any, against any of the Releasees before any local, state, or federal agency, court, or other body (each individually a “Proceeding”). Executive represents that Executive is not aware of any basis on which such a Proceeding could reasonably be instituted. Executive (i) acknowledges that Executive will not initiate or cause to be initiated on the Executive’s behalf any Proceeding and will not participate in any Proceeding, in each case, except as required by law and (ii) waives any right Executive may have to benefit in any manner from any relief (whether monetary or otherwise) arising out of any Proceeding, including any Proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”). Further, Executive understands that, by executing this Release, Executive will be limiting the availability of certain remedies that Executive may have against the Company and limiting also the ability of Executive to pursue certain claims against the Releasees. Notwithstanding the above, nothing in Section 1 of this Release shall prevent Executive from (i) initiating or causing to be initiated on the Executive’s behalf any complaint, charge, claim, or proceeding against the Company before any local, state, or federal agency, court, or other body challenging the validity of the waiver of the Executive’s claims under the ADEA contained in Section 1 of this Release (but no other portion of such waiver); or (ii) initiating or participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC.
3Time to Consider

Executive acknowledges that Executive has been advised that Executive has twenty-one (21) days from the date of receipt of this Release to consider all the provisions of this Release and, to the extent Executive signs this Release prior to the expiration of such period, Executive does hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive the remaining portion of such twenty-one (21) day period. EXECUTIVE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS READ THIS RELEASE CAREFULLY, HAS BEEN ADVISED BY THE COMPANY TO, AND HAS IN FACT, CONSULTED AN ATTORNEY, AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS THAT BY SIGNING BELOW EXECUTIVE IS GIVING UP CERTAIN RIGHTS WHICH EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE TO SUE OR ASSERT A CLAIM AGAINST ANY OF THE RELEASEES, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1 OF THIS RELEASE AND THE OTHER PROVISIONS HEREOF. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS NOT BEEN FORCED OR PRESSURED IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER TO SIGN THIS RELEASE, AND EXECUTIVE AGREES TO ALL OF ITS TERMS VOLUNTARILY.
4Revocation

Executive hereby acknowledges and understands that Executive shall have seven (7) days from the date of execution of this Release to revoke this Release (including, without limitation, any and all Claims arising under the ADEA) and that neither the Company nor any other person is obligated to provide any benefits to Executive pursuant to the Employment Agreement until eight (8) days have passed since Executive’s signing of this Release without Executive having revoked this Release, in which event the Company immediately shall arrange and/or pay for any such benefits otherwise attributable to said eight (8) day period, consistent with the terms of the Employment Agreement. If Executive revokes this Release, Executive will be deemed not to have accepted the terms of this Release, and no action will be required of the Company under any section of this Release.
5No Admission




This Release does not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing of any kind by Executive or the Company or any of the Releasees.
6Indemnification

The Executive shall be entitled to indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by law with regard to actions or inactions taken in good faith performance of the Executive’s duties to the Company, and to the extent applicable, the Releasees, during the Executive’s employment and to directors and officers liability insurance coverage in accordance with the Company’s policies that cover officers and directors generally. Such indemnification and coverage shall apply, while potential liability exists, to the same extent as provided to active directors and senior officers.
7General Provisions

A failure of any of the Releasees to insist on strict compliance with any provision of this Release shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision or any other provision hereof. If any provision of this Release is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, and in the event that any provision is determined to be entirely unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable, such that all other provisions of this Release shall remain valid and binding upon Executive and the Releasees.
8Governing Law; Dispute Resolution

This Release shall be construed under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any controversy or claim between the Executive and the Company or any Releasee arising out of or relating to or concerning this Release or any aspect of the Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination of that employment will be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York, New York administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes; provided, however, that with respect to any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to or concerning injunctive relief for the Executive’s breach or purported breach of Section 8 or 9 of the Employment Agreement, the Company will have the right, in addition to any other remedies it may have, to seek specific performance and injunctive relief with a court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to post a bond or other security. Each of the Executive and the Company will bear its own legal expenses and will share the arbitration costs equally.

(b)Death. Executive’s employment shall be terminated as of the date of Executive’s death.
(c)Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause (as defined below), effective as of the date of the Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) that notifies Executive of Executive’s termination for Cause. “Cause” shall mean, for purposes of this Agreement: (i) the continued failure by Executive to substantially perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement (other than any such failure resulting from Disability or other allowable leave of absence); (ii) the criminal felony indictment (or non-U.S. equivalent) of Executive by a court of competent jurisdiction; (iii) the engagement by Executive in misconduct that has caused, or, is reasonably likely to cause, material harm (financial or otherwise) to the Company, including, without limitation (A) the unauthorized disclosure of material secret or Confidential Information (as defined in Section 10(d) below) of the Company or any of its affiliates, (B) the debarment of the Company or any of its affiliates by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or any successor agency (the “FDA”) or any non-U.S. equivalent, or the debarment, suspension or other exclusion of the Company or any of its affiliates by any other governmental authority, or (C) the revocation, suspension or denial of any registration, license, or other governmental authorization of the Company or any of its affiliates, including any registration of the Company or any of its affiliates with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration or any successor agency (the “DEA”) and any registration or marketing authorization of the FDA or any non-U.S. equivalent; (iv) the debarment of Executive by the FDA or the debarment, suspension or other exclusion of Executive by any other governmental authority; (v) the continued material breach by Executive of this Agreement; (vi) any material breach by Executive of a Company policy; (vii) any breach by Executive of a Company policy related to sexual or other types of harassment or abusive conduct; or (viii) Executive making, or being found to have made, a certification relating to the Company’s financial statements and public filings that is known to Executive to be false. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to having Cause for Executive’s termination (other than as described in clauses (ii), (iv) and (vii) above), the Company must deliver a written demand to Executive which specifically identifies the conduct that may provide grounds for Cause within ninety (90) calendar days of the Company’s actual knowledge of such conduct, events or circumstances, and Executive must have failed to cure such conduct (if curable) within thirty (30) days after such demand. References to the Company in subsections (i) through (viii) of this paragraph shall also include affiliates of the Company.
(d)Without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause. The Company shall deliver to Executive a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of Executive’s employment without Cause and the Company shall have the option of terminating Executive’s duties and responsibilities prior to the expiration of such thirty-day notice period, provided the Company pays Base Salary through the end of such notice period.
(e)Good Reason. Executive may terminate employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of Executive’s employment for Good Reason. The Company shall have the option of terminating Executive’s duties and responsibilities prior to the expiration of such thirty-day notice period provided the Company pays Base Salary through the end of such notice period. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means any of the following without Executive’s written consent: (i) a diminution in Executive’s Base Salary, a material diminution in Target Bonus (provided that failure to earn a bonus equal to or in excess of the Target Bonus by reason of failure to achieve applicable performance goals shall not be deemed Good Reason) or material diminution in benefits; (ii) a material diminution of Executive’s position, responsibilities, duties or authorities from those in effect as of the Effective Date; (iii) any change in reporting structure such that Executive is required to report to someone other than the Chief Executive Officer of Endo, the Board or a committee of the Board; (iv) any material breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement (including the material failure to pay any amounts due hereunder when due or the failure of the Company to abide by the requirements of Section 14(a)(i) below with respect to successors or permitted assigns); or (v) the Company requiring Executive to be based at (and regularly commute to) any office or location more than fifty (50) miles from Executive’s primary

7.Notice of Termination. Any purported termination by the Company on one hand, or by Executive on the other hand, shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice that indicates a termination date, the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated. For purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination of Executive’s employment hereunder shall be effective without such Notice of Termination (unless waived by the party entitled to receive such notice).
8.Compensation Upon Termination. Upon termination of Executive’s employment during the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:
(a)Termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive without Good Reason, the Company shall pay Executive:
(i)any accrued and unpaid Base Salary, payable on the next payroll date;
(ii)any Incentive Compensation earned but unpaid in respect of any completed fiscal year preceding the termination date, payable at the time annual incentive compensation is paid to other similarly situated executives;

(iv)any accrued and unpaid vacation pay, payable on the next payroll date;
(v)any previous compensation that Executive had previously deferred (including any interest earned or credited thereon), in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable deferred compensation plans or arrangements then in effect, to the extent vested as of Executive’s termination date, paid pursuant to the terms of such plans or arrangements; and
(vi)any amount or benefit as provided under any benefit plan or program in accordance with the terms thereof (the foregoing items in Sections 8(a)(i) through 8(a)(v) being collectively referred to as the “Accrued Compensation”).
(b)Termination by the Company for Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Disability, the Company shall pay Executive:
(i)the Accrued Compensation;
(ii)an amount equal to the Incentive Compensation that Executive would have been entitled to receive in respect of the fiscal year in which Executive’s termination date occurs, had Executive continued in employment until the end of such fiscal year, which amount, determined based on actual performance for such year relative to the performance goals applicable to Executive (but without any exercise of negative discretion with respect to Executive in excess of that applied to either similarly situated executives of the Company generally or in accordance with the Company’s historical past practice), shall be multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year through the termination date and (B) the denominator of which is 365 (the “Pro-Rata Bonus”) and shall be payable in a lump sum payment at the time such bonus or annual incentive awards are payable to other participants. Further, upon Executive’s Disability (irrespective of any
    4



termination of employment related thereto), the Company shall pay Executive for eighteen (18) consecutive months thereafter regular payments in the amount, if any, by which Executive’s monthly Base Salary exceeds Executive’s monthly Disability insurance benefit; and
(iii)continued coverage for Executive and Executive’s dependents under any health, medical, dental, vision and basic life insurance (but not supplemental life insurance) program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination (as may be amended or replaced by the Company from time to time in the ordinary course), for eighteen (18) months following such termination on the same basis as active employees, which such period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period; provided, however, that (x) the Company may instead, in its discretion, provide substantially similar benefits or payment outside of the Company’s benefit plans if the Company reasonably determines that providing such alternative benefits or payment is appropriate to minimize potential adverse tax consequences and penalties; and (y) the coverage provided hereunder shall become secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which Executive becomes eligible, and it shall be the obligation of Executive to inform the Company if Executive becomes eligible for such subsequent coverage (the “Benefits Continuation”).
(c)Termination By Reason of Death. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, the Company shall pay Executive’s beneficiaries:
(i)the Accrued Compensation;
(ii)the Pro-Rata Bonus; and
(iii)continued coverage for Executive’s dependents under any health, medical, dental, vision and basic life insurance (but not supplemental life insurance) program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination (as may be amended or replaced by the Company from time to time in the ordinary course), for eighteen (18) months following such termination on the same basis as the dependents of active employees, which such period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period.
(d)Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason.

(i)the Accrued Compensation;
(ii)the Pro-Rata Bonus;
(iii)in lieu of any further Base Salary or other compensation and benefits for periods subsequent to the termination date, an amount in cash, which amount shall be payable in a lump sum payment within sixty (60) days following such termination (subject to Section 9(c)), equal to one and one half (1.5) times the sum of (A) Executive’s Base Salary and (B) the Target Bonus; and
(iv)the Benefits Continuation.
(e)No Mitigation. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for under this Section 8 by seeking other employment or otherwise and, except as provided in Sections 8(b)(iii) and 8(d)(iv) above, no such payment shall be offset or reduced by the amount of any compensation or benefits provided to Executive in any subsequent employment. Further, the Company’s obligations to make any payments hereunder shall not be subject to or affected by any set-off, counterclaim or defense which the Company may have against Executive.
9.Certain Tax Treatment.
(a)Golden Parachute Tax. To the extent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement and benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, Executive under any other plan or agreement of the Company or any of its affiliates (such payments or benefits are collectively referred to as the “Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed under Section 4999 of the Code or any successor provision thereto, or any similar tax imposed by state or local law, then Executive may, in Executive’s sole discretion (except as provided herein below) waive the right to receive any payments or distributions (or a portion thereof) by the
    5



Company in the nature of compensation to or for Executive’s benefit if and to the extent necessary so that no Payment to be made or benefit to be provided to Executive shall be subject to the Excise Tax (such reduced amount is hereinafter referred to as the “Limited Payment Amount”), but only if such reduction results in a higher after-tax payment to Executive after taking into account the Excise Tax and any additional taxes (including federal, state and local income taxes, employment, social security and Medicare taxes and all other applicable taxes) Executive would pay if such Payments were not reduced. If so waived, the Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments, to effect the provisions of this Section 9 based upon Section 9(b) below. The determination of the amount of Payments that would be required to be reduced to the Limited Payment Amount pursuant to this Agreement and the amount of such Limited Payment Amount shall be made, at the Company’s expense, by a reputable accounting firm selected by Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determination (the “Determination”), together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation to the Company and Executive within ten (10) days of the date of termination, if applicable, or such other time as specified by mutual agreement of the Company and Executive, and if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive with respect to the Payments, it shall furnish Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to any such Payments. The Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon the Company and Executive, absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 9(a), the Accounting Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and rates, and rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the Code, and other applicable legal authority. In furtherance of the above, to the extent requested by Executive, the Company shall cooperate in good faith in valuing, and the Accounting Firm shall value, services to be provided by Executive (including Executive refraining from performing services pursuant to any covenant not to compete) before, on or after the date of the transaction which causes the application of Section 4999 of the Code, such that payments in respect of such services may be considered to be “reasonable compensation” within the meaning of the regulations under Section 4999 of the Code.
(b)Ordering of Reduction. In the case of a reduction in the Payments pursuant to Section 9(a), the Payments will be reduced in the following order: (i) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) will be reduced (if necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; (iii) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last reduced first, will next be reduced; (iv) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; and (v) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses (ii) or (iv) will be next reduced pro-rata.
(c)Section 409A. The parties intend for the payments and benefits under this Agreement to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code or, if not so exempt, to be paid or provided in a manner which complies with the requirements of such section, and intend that this Agreement shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intention. In the event the Company determines that a payment or benefit under this Agreement may not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, subject to Section 5(a) herein, the Company shall reasonably confer with Executive in order to modify or amend this Agreement to comply with Section 409A of the Code and to do so in a manner to best preserve the economic benefit of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, (i) no amounts shall be paid to Executive under Section 8 of this Agreement until Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code; (ii) amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following Executive’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service (or death, if earlier), with interest for any cash payments so delayed, from the date such cash amounts would otherwise have been paid at the short-term applicable federal rate, compounded semi-annually, as determined under Section 1274 of the Code for the month in which the payment would have been made but for the delay in payment required to avoid the imposition of an additional rate of tax on Executive; (iii) each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separately identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code; (iv) any payments that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise; and (v) amounts reimbursable to Executive under this Agreement shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in-kind benefits provided to Executive) during any one (1) year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year.

Executive understands that if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Executive (x) files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and (y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Agreement, or any other agreement that Executive has with the Company or its affiliates, is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by such section.
(g)Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement or any other agreement that Executive has with the Company or its affiliates to the contrary, Executive shall not be prohibited from reporting possible violations of federal or state law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, legislative body, or any self-regulatory organization, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation, nor is Executive required to notify the Company regarding any such reporting, disclosure or cooperation with the government.

(i)The Company and its affiliates are currently engaged in the business of branded and generic pharmaceuticals, with a focus on product development, clinical development, manufacturing, distribution and sales & marketing. To protect the Confidential Information and other trade secrets of the Company and its affiliates as well as the goodwill and competitive business of the Company and its affiliates, Executive agrees, during the Employment Term and for a period of twelve (12) months after Executive’s cessation of employment with the Company, that Executive will not, unless otherwise agreed to by the Chief Executive Officer of Endo (following approval by the Chair of the Committee), anywhere in the world where, at the time of Executive’s termination of employment, the Company develops, manufactures, distributes, markets or sells its products, except in the course of Executive’s employment hereunder, directly or indirectly manage, operate, control, or participate in the management, operation, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner connected with, lend Executive’s name to, or render services or advice to, any third party or any business whose products or services compete in whole or in part with the products or services (both on the market and in development) material to the Company or any business unit on the termination date that constitutes more than 5% of the Company’s revenue on the termination date (a “Competing Business”); provided, however, that Executive may in any event (x) own up to a 5% passive ownership interest in any public or private entity and (y) serve on the board of any Competing Business that competes with the business of the Company and its affiliates as an immaterial part of its overall business, provided that Executive recuses Executive fully and completely from all matters relating to such business.
(ii)For purposes of this Section 11(b), any third party or any business whose products compete includes any entity with which the Company or its affiliates has had a product(s) licensing agreement during the Employment Term and any entity with which the Company or any of its affiliates is at the time of termination actively negotiating, and eventually concludes within twelve (12) months of the Employment Term, a commercial agreement.
(iii)Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall not be a violation of this Section 11(b), for Executive to provide services to (or engage in activities involving): (A) a subsidiary, division or affiliate of a
    8



Competing Business where such subsidiary, division or affiliate is not engaged in a Competing Business and Executive does not provide services to, or have any responsibilities regarding, the Competing Business; (B) any entity that is, or is a general partner in, or manages or participates in managing, a private or public fund (including a hedge fund) or other investment vehicle, which is engaged in venture capital investments, leveraged buy-outs, investments in public or private companies, other forms of private or alternative equity transactions, or in public equity transactions, and that might make an investment which Executive could not make directly, provided that in connection therewith, Executive does not provide services to, engage in activities involved with, or have any responsibilities regarding a Competing Business; and (C) an affiliate of a Competing Business if Executive does not provide services, directly or indirectly, to such Competing Business and the basis of the affiliation is solely due to common ownership by a private equity or similar investment fund; provided, that, in each case, Executive shall remain bound by all other post-employment obligations under this Agreement including Executive’s obligations under Sections 10, 11(a), 11(c) and 11(d) herein; provided, further, that Executive’s provision of services to (or engagement in activities involving) any entity described in clauses (A) or (B) of this Section 11(b)(iii) shall be subject to the prior approval of the Board.
(c)Nondisparagement. Executive covenants that during and following the Employment Term, Executive will not disparage or encourage or induce others to disparage the Company or its affiliates, together with all of their respective past and present directors and officers, as well as their respective past and present managers, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, attorneys, servants and customers and each of their predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Entities and Persons”); provided, that such limitation shall extend to past and present managers, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, attorneys, servants and customers only in their capacities as such or in respect of their relationship with the Company and its affiliates. The Company shall instruct its officers and directors not to, during and following the Employment Term, make or issue any statement that disparages Executive to any third parties or otherwise encourage or induce others to disparage Executive. The term “disparage” includes, without limitation, comments or statements adversely affecting in any manner (i) the conduct of the business of the Company Entities and Persons or Executive, or (ii) the business reputation of the Company Entities and Persons or Executive. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall prevent either party from providing, or limiting testimony in any judicial, administrative or legal process or otherwise as required by law, prevent either party from engaging in truthful testimony pursuant to any proceeding under this Section 11 or Section 12 below or Section 5 of the Release or prevent Executive from making statements in the course of doing Executive’s normal duties for the Company.
(d)Cooperation in Any Investigations and Litigation; No Cooperation with Non-Governmental Third Parties. During the Employment Term and thereafter, Executive shall provide truthful information and otherwise assist and cooperate with the Company and its affiliates, and its counsel, (i) in connection with any investigation, inquiry, administrative, regulatory or judicial proceedings, or in connection with any dispute or claim of any kind that may be made against, by, or with respect to the Company, as reasonably requested by the Company (including Executive being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are in or may come into Executive’s possession), and (ii) in all matters concerning requests for information about the services or advice Executive provides or provided to the Company during Executive’s employment with the Company, its affiliates and their predecessors. Such cooperation shall be subject to Executive’s business and personal commitments and shall not require Executive to cooperate against Executive’s own legal interests or the legal interests of any future employer of Executive. Executive shall use the Company’s counsel for all matters in connection with this Section 11(d); provided, however, that if there exists an actual conflict of interest between Executive and the Company’s counsel, Executive may retain separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company. The existence of an actual conflict of interest, and whether such conflict may be waived, shall be determined pursuant to the rules of attorney professional conduct and applicable law. The Company agrees to promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses reasonably incurred by Executive, in connection with Executive’s cooperation pursuant to this Section 11(d) (including travel expenses at the level of travel permitted by this Agreement and reasonable attorney fees in the event separate legal counsel for Executive is required due to a conflict of interest). Such reimbursements shall be made as soon as practicable, and in no event later than the calendar year following the year in which the expenses are incurred. Executive also shall not support (financially or otherwise), counsel or assist any attorneys or their clients or any other non-governmental person in the presentation or prosecution of, encourage any non-governmental person to raise, or suggest or recommend to any non-governmental person that such person could or should raise, in each case, any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints against the Company and/or its affiliates that (x) arises out of, or relates to, any period of time on or prior to Executive’s last day of employment with the Company or (y) involves any information Executive learned during Executive’s employment with the Company; provided, that, following the second anniversary of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, such prohibition shall not extend to any such actions taken by Executive on behalf of (A) Executive’s then current employer, (B) any entity with respect to which Executive is then a member of the board of directors or managers (as applicable), or (C) any non-publicly traded entity with respect to which Executive is a 5% or more equity owner (or any affiliate of any such entities
    9



referenced in clauses (A), (B) or (C)). Executive agrees that, in the event Executive is subpoenaed by any person or entity (including any government agency) to give testimony (in a deposition, court proceeding or otherwise) which in any way relates to Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive will, to the extent not legally prohibited from doing so, give prompt notice of such request to the Chief Legal Officer of Endo so that the Company may contest the right of the requesting person or entity to such disclosure before making such disclosure. Nothing in this provision shall require Executive to violate Executive’s obligation to comply with valid legal process.
(e)Blue Pencil. It is the intent and desire of Executive and the Company that the provisions of this Section 11 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 this Section 11 shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such covenant 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.
12.Remedies for Breach of Obligations under Sections 10 or 11 hereof. Executive acknowledges that the Company and its affiliates will suffer irreparable injury, not readily susceptible of valuation in monetary damages, if Executive breaches Executive’s obligations under Sections 10 or 11 hereof. Accordingly, Executive agrees that the Company and its affiliates will be entitled, in addition to any other available remedies, to obtain injunctive relief against any breach or prospective breach by Executive of Executive’s obligations under Sections 10 or 11 hereof in any federal or state court sitting in the State of Delaware or, at the Company’s election, in any other state in which Executive maintains Executive’s principal residence or Executive’s principal place of business. Executive hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of all those courts for the purposes of any actions or proceedings instituted by the Company or its affiliates to obtain that injunctive relief, and Executive agrees that process in any or all of those actions or proceedings may be served by registered mail, addressed to the last address provided by Executive to the Company, or in any other manner authorized by law.

The Base Salary shall be subject to review and increase (but may not decrease, unless the reduction in Base Salary is (a) part of a program approved by the Board of Directors of Mallinckrodt (the “Board”) or its delegate, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (collectively, the “Committee”) that affects all executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer on a consistent basis and (b) no greater than 10% in the aggregate) by the Committee in its sole discretion. References in this Agreement to “Base Salary” shall be deemed to refer to the most recently effective annual base salary, unless otherwise specifically set forth herein.
Section 5.Additional Benefits. In addition to the Base Salary, the Executive shall be entitled to the following additional benefits:
Section 5.01Annual Short-Term Management Incentive Plan. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in an annual short-term management incentive plan established by the Committee (the “STIP”) pursuant to which the Executive will have the opportunity to earn a cash incentive bonus in respect of each year of employment (the “Annual Bonus”), subject to terms established by the Committee from time to time. For fiscal years following 2025, the Executive’s Annual Bonus target shall be 80% of the Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”). The actual Annual Bonus earned by the Executive in respect of a given year, if any, shall be based on performance metrics to be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. The Committee shall determine whether the Executive has met or exceeded the performance metrics in any given year with regard to determining the amount of the Executive’s Annual Bonus. For the avoidance of doubt, except as provided in Section 7.01 through Section 7.04, the Executive’s participation in the STIP and the Executive’s right to earn any cash bonus thereunder shall be subject to the same terms and conditions established by the Committee for other executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

The Inducement Grant shall consist of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that, except as provided in Section 7.01 through 7.04, will vest ratably on each of December 15, 2025, December 15, 2026 and December 15, 2027, subject to the Executive’s continued employment with the Company through such dates. The terms and conditions applicable to the Inducement Grant shall be consistent with those applicable to RSUs issued under the MIP, except as otherwise set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the MIP shall provide for the equitable adjustment of outstanding awards, including the Inducement Award, in the case of any stock split, reverse stock split, dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares, other securities or other property), extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization or similar corporate event. Notwithstanding anything set forth in the MIP, “Cause”, “Change in Control Termination”, “Disability”, and “Good Reason” shall have the meanings set forth herein, to the extent they differ from the definitions set forth in the MIP, with respect to the Inducement Grant and any other awards that may be granted to Executive under the MIP.
(b)For periods following the 2025 fiscal year, the Executive shall receive annual long-term incentive compensation grants which shall have a grant date fair market value of no less than five million dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Annual LTI Awards”).

The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable, necessary, and documented expenses actually incurred by the Executive directly in connection with the business affairs of the Company and the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder, including for travel and hotel expenses incurred in traveling to and working from the Company’s offices, upon presentation of proper receipts or other proof of expenditure and subject to such reasonable guidelines or limitations that are applicable generally to executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer, as provided by the Company from time to time. The Executive shall comply with such reasonable limitations and reporting requirements with respect to such expenses as the Committee may establish from time to time, in each case that are applicable generally to executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer. Except to the extent specifically provided, however, the Executive shall not use Company funds for non-business, non-Company related matters or for personal matters.

The failure of the Executive to submit to a reasonable examination by a physician or physicians reasonably acceptable to the Board within thirty (30) day’s following the Board’s request for such an examination shall act as an estoppel to any objection by the Executive to the determination of Disability by the Board.
Section 6.03By the Company for Cause.

Section 6.05By the Executive without Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement and the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time effective upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Company; provided, that the Company may, in its sole discretion, within five (5) days of its receipt of such notice, waive such notice period and accelerate the date of the Executive’s termination to any date that occurs following the Company’s receipt of such notice without changing the characterization of such termination as a resignation, even if such date is prior to the date specified in such notice, and any pay in lieu of such notice period or portion thereof that the Company has so waived is capped at thirty (30) days.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Executive provides written notice of termination with Good Reason in reliance upon this Section 6.06 (such notice to be provided within thirty (30) business days of the Executive’s knowledge of the occurrence of the events or circumstances constituting Good Reason), the Company shall have the opportunity to cure such circumstances within thirty (30) business days of receipt of such notice. If the Company shall not have cured such event or events giving rise to Good Reason within thirty (30) business days after receipt of written notice from the Executive, the Executive may terminate employment with Good Reason by delivering a resignation letter to the Company within thirty (30) business days following such thirty (30) business day cure period; provided, that if the Executive has not delivered such resignation letter to the Company within such thirty (30) business day period, or has not provided written notice to the Company within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of the events or circumstances constituting Good Reason, the Executive waives the right to terminate employment with Good Reason.

The Executive shall not, during the term of the Executive’s employment or at any time thereafter, whether in writing or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage the Company Group, or any current or former directors, officers, or employees of the Company Group, with respect to any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing or orally) statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned parties in an unfavorable light. The Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent Executive from making truthful statements (a) in any legal proceeding or as otherwise required by law, or from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to a governmental agency or entity; (b) when requested by a governmental, regulatory, or similar body or entity; (c) in confidence to a professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional advice; (d) in the course of performing Executive’s duties during the Executive’s term of employment (e.g., performance reviews); or (e) in response to statements, references or characterizations made, directly or indirectly, by the Company Group that are misleading, disparage the Executive, or reflect negatively on the Executive. The Company Group will instruct its executives and Board members not to disparage the Executive to the same extent the Executive is restricted in this Section 9.04.
Section 10.  Remedies. It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of any breach of the provisions of Section 8 or Section 9 of this Agreement, the Company Group shall have the right and remedy, without regard to any other available remedy, to (a) have the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, (b) seek to have issued an injunction restraining any breach or threatened breach without posting of a bond, and (c) seek any and all other remedies available to the Company Group under applicable law; it being understood that any breach of any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 could cause irreparable and material damages to the Company Group (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any loss of the proprietary advantage and trade secrets related to the identity of customers and suppliers), the amount of which cannot be readily determined and as to which the Company Group will not have any adequate remedy at law or in damages. The Executive agrees that any remedy at law for any breach by the Executive of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 would be inadequate, and that the Company Group would be entitled to seek injunctive relief in such a case. If it is ever held that this restriction on the Executive is too onerous and is not necessary for the protection of the Company Group, the Executive agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction may impose such lesser restrictions that may be necessary or appropriate to properly protect the Company Group. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure in one or more instances of the Company Group to insist upon performance of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9, to exercise any right or privilege herein conferred, or the waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 shall not be construed as a subsequent waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect as if no forbearance or waiver had occurred.

Section 11.  Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision.

Section 12.  Notices. Any and all notices or other communication required or permitted to be given under any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) upon delivery if personally delivered, (b) three (3) days after deposit if sent by first class registered mail, return receipt requested, (c) one (1) day after deposit if sent by a reputable overnight courier, or (d) upon confirmation if sent by facsimile or email, addressed to the Parties at the addresses set forth below (or at such other address as any Party may specify by notice to all other Parties given as aforesaid):

The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has entered into this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily and with full knowledge and understanding of the provisions of this Agreement after being given the opportunity to consult with counsel. The Executive further represents that in entering into this Agreement, the Executive is not relying on any statements or representations made by any of the Company’s directors, officers, employees, or agents which are not expressly set forth herein, and that the Executive is relying only upon the Executive’s own judgment and any advice provided by the Executive’s attorney.
Section 13.11Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:
(a)The Parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder to the extent applicable (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement contravenes Code Section 409A or would cause the Executive to be subject to additional taxes, interest or penalties under Code Section 409A the Executive and the Company shall discuss in good faith modifications to this Agreement in order to mitigate or eliminate such taxes, interest or penalties. In making such modifications the Company and the Executive shall reasonably attempt to maintain the original intent of the applicable provision without contravening the provisions of Code Section 409A to the maximum extent practicable. In no event whatsoever will the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest,
    10


or penalties that may be imposed on the Executive under Code Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.
(b)A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 13.11(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed on the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period to the Executive in a lump sum with interest during the Delay Period at the prime rate, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.
(c)With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, to be provided in any other taxable year, provided, that, this clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect, and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.
(d)For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company
Section 13.12Code Section 280G.
(a)If there is a change of ownership or effective control or change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (a “280G Change in Control”) and any payment or benefit (including payments and benefits pursuant to this Agreement) that the Executive would receive from the Company or otherwise (a “Transaction Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Transaction Payment are paid to the Executive, which of the following two alternative forms of payment would result in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Transaction Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Transaction Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax: (A) payment in full of the entire amount of the Transaction Payment (a “Full Payment”), or (B) payment of only a part of the Transaction Payment so that the Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a “Reduced Payment”, and Executive shall be entitled to payment of whichever amount that shall result in a greater after-tax amount for Executive. For purposes of determining whether to make a Full Payment or a Reduced Payment, the Company shall cause to be taken into account all applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate reasonably applicable to Executive, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes). If a Reduced Payment is made, the reduction in payments and/or benefits will occur in the following order: (1) first, reduction of cash payments, in reverse order of scheduled payment date (or if necessary, to zero), (2) then, reduction of non-cash and non-equity benefits provided to the Executive, on a pro rata basis (or if necessary, to zero) and (3) then, cancellation of the acceleration of vesting of equity award compensation in the reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s equity awards.
(b)Unless the Executive and the Company otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this section shall be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company subject to the approval of the Executive which shall not be unreasonably withheld (the
    11


Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company for all purposes absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any determination by the Accountants under this Section 13.12(b) will take into account the value of any reasonable compensation for services to be rendered by the Executive (or for holding oneself out as available to perform services and refraining from performing services (such as under a covenant not to compete)). The Accountants shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and the Executive as requested by the Company or the Executive. The Executive and the Company shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this section as well as any costs incurred by the Executive with the Accountants for tax planning under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code.
Section 13.13Recoupment. By executing this Agreement, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the compensation provided under this Agreement is subject to recoupment in accordance with the terms and provisions of Mallinckrodt’s Executive Financial Recoupment Program as in effect on the Effective Date (the “Recoupment Policy”), attached hereto as Exhibit B, as such Recoupment Policy may be amended by the Board in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 6.8 of the Recoupment Policy.

Exhibit A
Exhibit A
RELEASE OF CLAIMS (“Release”)
In connection with the termination of employment of Christiana Stamoulis (the “Executive”) by ST Shared Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) pursuant to the Employment Agreement between Executive and the Company, dates as of _________, 2025 (the “Employment Agreement”), Executive agrees as follows:
1.Release of Claims
In consideration of the payments and benefits described in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (as applicable) of the Employment Agreement (other than Accrued Benefits), to which Executive agrees that Executive is not entitled until and unless Executive executes this Release and it becomes effective in accordance with the terms hereof, Executive, for and on behalf of the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, successors, and assigns, subject to the last sentence of this Section 1, hereby waives and releases any employment, compensation, or benefit-related common law, statutory, or other complaints, claims, charges, or causes of action, both known and unknown, in law or in equity (collectively, the “Claims”), which Executive ever had, now has, or may have against the Company, Mallinckrodt plc, a public company with limited liability incorporated in Ireland, and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, and their equity holders, parents, subsidiaries, successors, assigns, directors, officers, partners, members, managers, employees, trustees (in their official and individual capacities), employee benefit plans and their administrators and fiduciaries (in their official and individual capacities), representatives, or agents, and each of their affiliates, successors, and assigns, (collectively, the “Releasees”) by reason of facts or omissions which have occurred on or prior to the date that Executive signs this Release, including, without limitation, any complaint, charge, or cause of action arising out of Executive’s employment or termination of employment (including failure to provide notice of termination), or any term or condition of that employment, or claim for severance, equity, or equity-based compensation, except as set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (as applicable) of the Employment Agreement, or arising under federal, state, or local laws pertaining to employment, including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA,” a law which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the National Labor Relations Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all as amended, and any other federal, state, and local laws relating to discrimination on the basis of age, sex, or other protected class, all Claims under federal, state, or local laws for express or implied breach of contract, wrongful discharge, defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and any Claims for attorneys’ fees and costs with respect to any of the foregoing.
Executive further agrees that this Release may be pleaded as a full defense to any action, suit, arbitration, or other proceeding covered by the terms hereof which is or may be initiated, prosecuted, or maintained by Executive, Executive’s descendants, dependents, heirs, executors, administrators, or permitted assigns. By signing this Release, Executive acknowledges that Executive intends to waive and release any Claims known or unknown that Executive may have against the Releasees under these and any other laws; provided, that Executive does not waive or release Claims with respect to (i) any rights the Executive may have to enforce the Employment Agreement, (ii) accrued vested benefits or any other benefits remaining due under employee benefit plans of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and applicable law, (iii) any rights to continuation of medical and/or dental coverage in accordance with COBRA, (iv) any claims to coverage under any indemnification agreement or policy or liability insurance arrangement, (v) any rights in vested equity awards and (vi) any other rights that may not be released in accordance with applicable law (collectively, the “Unreleased Claims”).
2.Proceedings
Exhibit A – Page 1



Executive acknowledges that Executive has not filed any complaint, charge, claim, or proceeding with respect to a Claim, except with respect to an Unreleased Claim, if any, against any of the Releasees before any local, state, or federal agency, court, or other body (each individually a “Proceeding”). Executive represents that Executive is not aware of any basis on which such a Proceeding could reasonably be instituted. Executive (i) acknowledges that Executive will not initiate or cause to be initiated on the Executive’s behalf any Proceeding and will not participate in any Proceeding, in each case, except as required by law and (ii) waives any right Executive may have to benefit in any manner from any relief (whether monetary or otherwise) arising out of any Proceeding, including any Proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”). Further, Executive understands that, by executing this Release, Executive will be limiting the availability of certain remedies that Executive may have against the Company and limiting also the ability of Executive to pursue certain claims against the Releasees. Notwithstanding the above, nothing in Section 1 of this Release shall prevent Executive from (i) initiating or causing to be initiated on the Executive’s behalf any complaint, charge, claim, or proceeding against the Company before any local, state, or federal agency, court, or other body challenging the validity of the waiver of the Executive’s claims under the ADEA contained in Section 1 of this Release (but no other portion of such waiver); or (ii) initiating or participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC.
3.Time to Consider
Executive acknowledges that Executive has been advised that Executive has twenty-one (21) days from the date of receipt of this Release to consider all the provisions of this Release and, to the extent Executive signs this Release prior to the expiration of such period, Executive does hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive the remaining portion of such twenty-one (21) day period. EXECUTIVE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS READ THIS RELEASE CAREFULLY, HAS BEEN ADVISED BY THE COMPANY TO, AND HAS IN FACT, CONSULTED AN ATTORNEY, AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS THAT BY SIGNING BELOW EXECUTIVE IS GIVING UP CERTAIN RIGHTS WHICH EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE TO SUE OR ASSERT A CLAIM AGAINST ANY OF THE RELEASEES, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1 OF THIS RELEASE AND THE OTHER PROVISIONS HEREOF. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS NOT BEEN FORCED OR PRESSURED IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER TO SIGN THIS RELEASE, AND EXECUTIVE AGREES TO ALL OF ITS TERMS VOLUNTARILY.
4.Revocation
Executive hereby acknowledges and understands that Executive shall have seven (7) days from the date of execution of this Release to revoke this Release (including, without limitation, any and all Claims arising under the ADEA) and that neither the Company nor any other person is obligated to provide any benefits to Executive pursuant to the Employment Agreement until eight (8) days have passed since Executive’s signing of this Release without Executive having revoked this Release, in which event the Company immediately shall arrange and/or pay for any such benefits otherwise attributable to said eight (8) day period, consistent with the terms of the Employment Agreement. If Executive revokes this Release, Executive will be deemed not to have accepted the terms of this Release, and no action will be required of the Company under any section of this Release.
5.No Admission
This Release does not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing of any kind by Executive or the Company or any of the Releasees.
6.Indemnification
The Executive shall be entitled to indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by law with regard to actions or inactions taken in good faith performance of the Executive’s duties to the Company, and to the extent applicable, the Releasees, during the Executive’s employment and to directors and officers liability insurance coverage in accordance with the Company’s policies that cover officers and directors generally. Such indemnification and coverage shall apply, while potential liability exists, to the same extent as provided to active directors and senior officers.
Exhibit A – Page 2



7.General Provisions
A failure of any of the Releasees to insist on strict compliance with any provision of this Release shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision or any other provision hereof. If any provision of this Release is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, and in the event that any provision is determined to be entirely unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable, such that all other provisions of this Release shall remain valid and binding upon Executive and the Releasees.
8.Governing Law; Dispute Resolution
This Release shall be construed under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any controversy or claim between the Executive and the Company or any Releasee arising out of or relating to or concerning this Release or any aspect of the Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination of that employment will be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York, New York administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes; provided, however, that with respect to any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to or concerning injunctive relief for the Executive’s breach or purported breach of Section 8 or Section 9 of the Employment Agreement, the Company will have the right, in addition to any other remedies it may have, to seek specific performance and injunctive relief with a court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to post a bond or other security. Each of the Executive and the Company will bear its own legal expenses and will share the arbitration costs equally.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Executive has hereunto set the Executive’s hand as of the day and year set forth opposite the Executive’s signature below.

    1



practices. The Base Salary shall be subject to review and increase (but may not decrease, unless the reduction in Base Salary is (a) part of a program approved by the Board of Directors of Mallinckrodt (the “Board”) or its delegate, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (collectively, the “Committee”) that affects all executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer on a consistent basis and (b) no greater than 10% in the aggregate) by the Committee in its sole discretion.

Section 5.Additional Benefits. In addition to the Base Salary, the Executive shall be entitled to the following additional benefits:
Section 5.01Annual Short-Term Management Incentive Plan. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in an annual short-term management incentive plan established by the Committee (the “STIP”) pursuant to which the Executive will have the opportunity to earn a cash incentive bonus in respect of each year of employment (the “Annual Bonus”), subject to terms established by the Committee from time to time. The Executive’s Annual Bonus target shall be 75% of the Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”), prorated for partial years of employment. The actual Annual Bonus earned by the Executive in respect of a given year, if any, shall be based on performance metrics to be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. The Committee shall determine whether the Executive has met or exceeded the performance metrics in any given year with regard to determining the amount of the Executive’s Annual Bonus. For the avoidance of doubt, except as provided in Section 7.01 through Section 7.04, the Executive’s participation in the STIP and the Executive’s right to earn any cash bonus thereunder shall be subject to the same terms and conditions established by the Committee for other executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Annual Bonus shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with the STIP and at the same time other executive annual bonuses under the STIP are paid.
Section 5.02Long-Term Incentives. Commencing in the 2026 fiscal year, the Executive shall receive annual long-term incentive compensation grants which shall have a grant date fair market value of no less than three hundred percent (300%) of his then current Base Salary (the “Annual LTI Awards”). Executive’s Annual LTI Awards shall be subject to terms and conditions established by the Committee that are no less favorable than those established for other executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer. Notwithstanding anything set forth in Mallinckrodt’s 2025 Stock and Incentive Plan, or any successor plan thereto (the “Stock Plan”), “Cause”, “Change in Control Termination”, “Disability”, and “Good Reason” shall have the meanings set forth herein, to the extent they differ from the definitions set forth in the Stock Plan, with respect to any awards that may be granted to Executive under the Stock Plan. In 2026 only, Executive shall receive an additional long-term incentive compensation grant which shall have a grant date fair market value of one million dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Forfeited Compensation Inducement Grant”) which will be granted at the same time in 2026 as long-term incentive compensation grants are made to other executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer and shall be subject to terms and conditions established by the Committee that are no less favorable than those established for other executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer.
Section 5.03Sign-On Bonus; Cash Inducement Award.

The Executive shall be entitled to participate in the Company’s health, welfare, and other benefit plans and programs, including vacation, that are in effect for its executive officers from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and such participation in each case shall be on terms and conditions no less favorable than those established for other executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive generally; provided, that such plans may be amended, modified, or terminated at any time so long as Executive is not treated less favorably than executive officers of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer generally. For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive is not entitled to any employment benefits under Irish law and/or the law of any jurisdiction other than the United States, or to the protection of Irish employment legislation and/or employment legislation of any jurisdiction other than the United States as the Executive is not an employee of any member of the Company Group other than the Company.

The Executive may terminate this Agreement and the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time effective upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Company; provided, that the Company may, in its sole discretion, within five (5) days of its receipt of such notice, waive such notice period and accelerate the date of the Executive’s termination to any date that occurs following the Company’s receipt of such notice without changing the characterization of such termination as a resignation, even if such date is prior to the date specified in such notice, and any pay in lieu of such notice period or portion thereof that the Company has so waived is capped at thirty (30) days.
Section 6.06By the Executive with Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement effective upon written notice to the Company with Good Reason (as defined below). Such notice must provide a reasonably detailed explanation of the circumstances constituting Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of one of the following events: (a) the Company, without the Executive’s consent, materially reduces the Executive’s base salary or target annual bonus opportunity, other than a reduction of less than 10% that is made at the same time to the base salary or target annual bonus opportunity, as applicable, of all similarly situated employees; (b) the Company, without the Executive’s written consent, requires the Executive to experience a material diminution in their position, responsibilities, duties or authorities; (c) a material breach by the Company of the Agreement; or (d) a requirement that the Executive report to any other person, position or entity other than the CEO.

If the Company shall not have cured such event or events giving rise to Good Reason within thirty (30) business days after receipt of written notice from the Executive, the Executive may terminate employment with Good Reason by delivering a resignation letter to the Company within thirty (30) business days following such thirty (30) business day cure period; provided, that if the Executive has not delivered such resignation letter to the Company within such thirty (30) business day period, or has not provided written notice to the Company within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of the events or circumstances constituting Good Reason, the Executive waives the right to terminate employment with Good Reason.

Section 9.Restrictions on Activities of the Executive.
Section 9.01Acknowledgments. The Executive and the Company agree that the Executive is being employed hereunder in a key capacity with the Company and that the Company Group is engaged in a highly competitive business and that the success of the Company Group’s business in the marketplace depends upon its good will and reputation for quality and dependability. The Executive and the Company further agree that reasonable limits may be placed on the Executive’s ability to compete against the Company Group as provided herein to the extent that they protect and preserve the legitimate business interests and good will of the Company Group and are reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the covenants contained in this Section 9 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, and shall not amend, modify, abrogate, or otherwise alter any other restrictive covenants by which the Executive is bound pursuant to any other written agreement with the Company Group.
Section 9.02Restrictions. During the Executive’s employment with the Company and during the twelve (12) month period following the date of the Executive’s termination from employment with the Company for any reason (the “Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not:
(a)directly or indirectly engage in, provide services to, have any equity interest in, or manage or operate any individual, firm, corporation, partnership, business or entity (a “Business”) (whether as director, officer, employee, principal, agent, representative, owner, partner, member, security holder, consultant or otherwise) that engages in (either directly or through any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof) any business or activity in any geographic location in which the Company Group engages in, whether through selling, distributing, manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or otherwise, that competes with any of the businesses of the Company Group or any entity owned by the Company Group (a “Competing Business”); provided that a “Competing Business” shall not include (i) hospitals or pharmacies that purchase Company Group products or similar products or (ii) retailers or wholesalers that sell Company Group products or similar products; and provided further, that this Section 9.02(a) shall not apply in the event of Executive’s termination of employment by the Company without Cause or by Executive with Good Reason; provided further, that in the event of Executive’s termination of employment without Good Reason, the Restricted Period for purposes of this Section 9.02(a) shall apply for six (6) months as it pertains to any Competing Business and shall apply for twelve (12) months as it pertains to any entity listed on Exhibit C.
(b)directly or indirectly solicit or recruit, on the Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Business, the services of, or hire or engage, or interfere with the Company Group’s relationship with, any individual who is (or, at any time during the previous twelve (12) months, was) an employee, independent contractor or director of the Company Group, or solicit any of the Company Group’s then-current employees, independent contractors or directors to terminate services with the Company Group;
(c)directly or indirectly, on the Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Business, recruit or otherwise solicit for a Competing Business, any customer, client, distributor, vendor, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of the Company Group, or encourage or induce any such Person to terminate its arrangement with the Company Group or otherwise change or interfere with its relationship with the Company Group.
The Restricted Period shall be tolled during (and shall be deemed automatically extended by) any period in which the Executive is in violation of any of the provisions of this Section 9.02.
    7



Section 9.03THE EXECUTIVE REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES THE EXECUTIVE POSSESSES AT THE TIME OF COMMENCEMENT OF EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER ARE SUFFICIENT TO PERMIT THE EXECUTIVE, IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION OF THE EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER, TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD SATISFACTORY TO THE EXECUTIVE WITHOUT VIOLATING ANY PROVISION OF SECTION 8 OR SECTION 9 HEREOF, FOR EXAMPLE, BY USING SUCH KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES, OR SOME OF THEM, IN THE SERVICE OF A NON-COMPETITOR.
Section 9.04Non-Disparagement. The Executive shall not, during the term of the Executive’s employment or at any time thereafter, whether in writing or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage the Company Group, or any current or former directors, officers, or employees of the Company Group, with respect to any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing or orally) statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned parties in an unfavorable light. The Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent Executive from making truthful statements (a) in any legal proceeding or as otherwise required by law, or from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to a governmental agency or entity; (b) when requested by a governmental, regulatory, or similar body or entity; (c) in confidence to a professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional advice; (d) in the course of performing Executive’s duties during the Executive’s term of employment (e.g., performance reviews); or (e) in response to statements, references or characterizations made, directly or indirectly, by the Company Group that are misleading, disparage the Executive, or reflect negatively on the Executive. The Company Group will instruct its executives and Board members not to disparage the Executive to the same extent the Executive is restricted in this Section 9.04.
Section 10.Remedies. It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of any breach of the provisions of Section 8 or Section 9 of this Agreement, the Company Group shall have the right and remedy, without regard to any other available remedy, to (a) have the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, (b) seek to have issued an injunction restraining any breach or threatened breach without posting of a bond, and (c) seek any and all other remedies available to the Company Group under applicable law; it being understood that any breach of any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 could cause irreparable and material damages to the Company Group (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any loss of the proprietary advantage and trade secrets related to the identity of customers and suppliers), the amount of which cannot be readily determined and as to which the Company Group will not have any adequate remedy at law or in damages. The Executive agrees that any remedy at law for any breach by the Executive of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 would be inadequate, and that the Company Group would be entitled to seek injunctive relief in such a case. If it is ever held that this restriction on the Executive is too onerous and is not necessary for the protection of the Company Group, the Executive agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction may impose such lesser restrictions that may be necessary or appropriate to properly protect the Company Group. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure in one or more instances of the Company Group to insist upon performance of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9, to exercise any right or privilege herein conferred, or the waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9 shall not be construed as a subsequent waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or Section 9, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect as if no forbearance or waiver had occurred.
Section 11.Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision.

Section 13.10Representations of Executive; Advice of Counsel.
(a)The Executive represents, warrants, and covenants that as of the Effective Date: (i) the Executive has the full right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement and perform the Executive’s obligations hereunder and the Executive’s application for employment with the Company has been truthful and complete, (ii) the Executive will not be bound by any agreement that conflicts with or prevents or restricts the full performance of the Executive’s duties and obligations to the Company hereunder during or after the Executive’s employment with the Company, (iii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not result in any breach or violation of, or a default under, any existing obligation, commitment, or agreement to which the Executive is subject, and (iv) the Executive has disclosed to the Company all pending or closed litigations, judgments, or regulatory matters involving the Executive.
(b)Prior to execution of this Agreement, the Executive was advised by the Company of the Executive’s right to seek independent advice from an attorney of the Executive’s own selection regarding this Agreement. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has entered into this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily and with full knowledge and understanding of the provisions of this Agreement after being given the opportunity to consult with counsel. The Executive further represents that in entering into this Agreement, the Executive is not relying on any statements or representations made by any of the Company’s directors, officers, employees, or agents which are not expressly set forth herein, and that the Executive is relying only upon the Executive’s own judgment and any advice provided by the Executive’s attorney.
Section 13.11Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:
(a)The Parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder to the extent applicable (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement contravenes Code Section 409A or would cause the Executive to be subject to additional taxes, interest or penalties under Code Section 409A the Executive and the Company shall discuss in good faith modifications to this Agreement in order to mitigate or eliminate such taxes, interest or penalties. In making such modifications the Company and the Executive shall reasonably attempt to maintain the original intent of the applicable provision without contravening the provisions of Code Section 409A to the maximum extent practicable. In no event whatsoever will the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on the Executive under Code Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.
(b)A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of
    10



the Executive, and (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 13.11(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed on the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period to the Executive in a lump sum with interest during the Delay Period at the prime rate, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.
(c)With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, to be provided in any other taxable year, provided, that, this clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect, and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.
(d)For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company
Section 13.12Code Section 280G.
(a)If there is a change of ownership or effective control or change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (a “280G Change in Control”) and any payment or benefit (including payments and benefits pursuant to this Agreement) that the Executive would receive from the Company or otherwise (a “Transaction Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Transaction Payment are paid to the Executive, which of the following two alternative forms of payment would result in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Transaction Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Transaction Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax: (A) payment in full of the entire amount of the Transaction Payment (a “Full Payment”), or (B) payment of only a part of the Transaction Payment so that the Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a “Reduced Payment”, and Executive shall be entitled to payment of whichever amount that shall result in a greater after-tax amount for Executive. For purposes of determining whether to make a Full Payment or a Reduced Payment, the Company shall cause to be taken into account all applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate reasonably applicable to Executive, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes). If a Reduced Payment is made, the reduction in payments and/or benefits will occur in the following order: (1) first, reduction of cash payments, in reverse order of scheduled payment date (or if necessary, to zero), (2) then, reduction of non-cash and non-equity benefits provided to the Executive, on a pro rata basis (or if necessary, to zero) and (3) then, cancellation of the acceleration of vesting of equity award compensation in the reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s equity awards.
(b)Unless the Executive and the Company otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this section shall be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company subject to the approval of the Executive which shall not be unreasonably withheld (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company for all purposes absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any determination by the Accountants under this Section 13.12(b) will take into account the value of any reasonable compensation for services to be rendered by the Executive (or for holding oneself out as available to perform services and refraining from performing services (such as under a covenant not to compete)). The Accountants shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and the Executive as requested by the Company or the Executive. The Executive and the Company shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this section as well as any costs incurred by the Executive with the Accountants for tax planning under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code.

Section 13.13Recoupment. By executing this Agreement, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the compensation provided under this Agreement is subject to recoupment in accordance with the terms and provisions of Mallinckrodt’s Executive Financial Recoupment Program as in effect on the Effective Date (the “Recoupment Policy”), attached hereto as Exhibit B, as such Recoupment Policy may be amended by the Board in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 6.8 of the Recoupment Policy.

RELEASE OF CLAIMS (“Release”)
In connection with the termination of employment of Dr. Marek Honczarenko (the “Executive”) by ST Shared Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) pursuant to the Employment Agreement between Executive and the Company, dates as of September __, 2025 (the “Employment Agreement”), Executive agrees as follows:
1.Release of Claims
In consideration of the payments and benefits described in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (as applicable) of the Employment Agreement (other than Accrued Benefits), to which Executive agrees that Executive is not entitled until and unless Executive executes this Release and it becomes effective in accordance with the terms hereof, Executive, for and on behalf of the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, successors, and assigns, subject to the last sentence of this Section 1, hereby waives and releases any employment, compensation, or benefit-related common law, statutory, or other complaints, claims, charges, or causes of action, both known and unknown, in law or in equity (collectively, the “Claims”), which Executive ever had, now has, or may have against the Company, Mallinckrodt plc, a public company with limited liability incorporated in Ireland, and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, and their equity holders, parents, subsidiaries, successors, assigns, directors, officers, partners, members, managers, employees, trustees (in their official and individual capacities), employee benefit plans and their administrators and fiduciaries (in their official and individual capacities), representatives, or agents, and each of their affiliates, successors, and assigns, (collectively, the “Releasees”) by reason of facts or omissions which have occurred on or prior to the date that Executive signs this Release, including, without limitation, any complaint, charge, or cause of action arising out of Executive’s employment or termination of employment (including failure to provide notice of termination), or any term or condition of that employment, or claim for severance, equity, or equity-based compensation, except as set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (as applicable) of the Employment Agreement, or arising under federal, state, or local laws pertaining to employment, including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA,” a law which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the National Labor Relations Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all as amended, and any other federal, state, and local laws relating to discrimination on the basis of age, sex, or other protected class, all Claims under federal, state, or local laws for express or implied breach of contract, wrongful discharge, defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and any Claims for attorneys’ fees and costs with respect to any of the foregoing.
Executive further agrees that this Release may be pleaded as a full defense to any action, suit, arbitration, or other proceeding covered by the terms hereof which is or may be initiated, prosecuted, or maintained by Executive, Executive’s descendants, dependents, heirs, executors, administrators, or permitted assigns. By signing this Release, Executive acknowledges that Executive intends to waive and release any Claims known or unknown that Executive may have against the Releasees under these and any other laws; provided, that Executive does not waive or release Claims with respect to (i) any rights the Executive may have to enforce the Employment Agreement, (ii) accrued vested benefits or any other benefits remaining due under employee benefit plans of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and applicable law, (iii) any rights to continuation of medical and/or dental coverage in accordance with COBRA, (iv) any claims to coverage under any indemnification agreement or policy or liability insurance arrangement, (v) any rights in vested equity awards and (vi) any other rights that may not be released in accordance with applicable law (collectively, the “Unreleased  Claims”).

Executive acknowledges that Executive has not filed any complaint, charge, claim, or proceeding with respect to a Claim, except with respect to an Unreleased Claim, if any, against any of the Releasees before any local, state, or federal agency, court, or other body (each individually a “Proceeding”). Executive represents that Executive is not aware of any basis on which such a Proceeding could reasonably be instituted. Executive (i) acknowledges that Executive will not initiate or cause to be initiated on the Executive’s behalf any Proceeding and will not
    Exhibit A – Page 1


participate in any Proceeding, in each case, except as required by law and (ii) waives any right Executive may have to benefit in any manner from any relief (whether monetary or otherwise) arising out of any Proceeding, including any Proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”). Further, Executive understands that, by executing this Release, Executive will be limiting the availability of certain remedies that Executive may have against the Company and limiting also the ability of Executive to pursue certain claims against the Releasees. Notwithstanding the above, nothing in Section 1 of this Release shall prevent Executive from (i) initiating or causing to be initiated on the Executive’s behalf any complaint, charge, claim, or proceeding against the Company before any local, state, or federal agency, court, or other body challenging the validity of the waiver of the Executive’s claims under the ADEA contained in Section 1 of this Release (but no other portion of such waiver); or (ii) initiating or participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC.
3.Time to Consider
Executive acknowledges that Executive has been advised that Executive has twenty-one (21) days from the date of receipt of this Release to consider all the provisions of this Release and, to the extent Executive signs this Release prior to the expiration of such period, Executive does hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive the remaining portion of such twenty-one (21) day period. EXECUTIVE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS READ THIS RELEASE CAREFULLY, HAS BEEN ADVISED BY THE COMPANY TO, AND HAS IN FACT, CONSULTED AN ATTORNEY, AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS THAT BY SIGNING BELOW EXECUTIVE IS GIVING UP CERTAIN RIGHTS WHICH EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE TO SUE OR ASSERT A CLAIM AGAINST ANY OF THE RELEASEES, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1 OF THIS RELEASE AND THE OTHER PROVISIONS HEREOF. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS NOT BEEN FORCED OR PRESSURED IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER TO SIGN THIS RELEASE, AND EXECUTIVE AGREES TO ALL OF ITS TERMS VOLUNTARILY.
4.Revocation
Executive hereby acknowledges and understands that Executive shall have seven (7) days from the date of execution of this Release to revoke this Release (including, without limitation, any and all Claims arising under the ADEA) and that neither the Company nor any other person is obligated to provide any benefits to Executive pursuant to the Employment Agreement until eight (8) days have passed since Executive’s signing of this Release without Executive having revoked this Release, in which event the Company immediately shall arrange and/or pay for any such benefits otherwise attributable to said eight (8) day period, consistent with the terms of the Employment Agreement. If Executive revokes this Release, Executive will be deemed not to have accepted the terms of this Release, and no action will be required of the Company under any section of this Release.
5.No Admission
This Release does not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing of any kind by Executive or the Company or any of the Releasees.
6.Indemnification
The Executive shall be entitled to indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by law with regard to actions or inactions taken in good faith performance of the Executive’s duties to the Company, and to the extent applicable, the Releasees, during the Executive’s employment and to directors and officers liability insurance coverage in accordance with the Company’s policies that cover officers and directors generally. Such indemnification and coverage shall apply, while potential liability exists, to the same extent as provided to active directors and senior officers.
7.General Provisions
A failure of any of the Releasees to insist on strict compliance with any provision of this Release shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision or any other provision hereof. If any provision of this Release is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, and in
    Exhibit A – Page 2


the event that any provision is determined to be entirely unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable, such that all other provisions of this Release shall remain valid and binding upon Executive and the Releasees.
8.Governing Law; Dispute Resolution
This Release shall be construed under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any controversy or claim between the Executive and the Company or any Releasee arising out of or relating to or concerning this Release or any aspect of the Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination of that employment will be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York, New York administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes; provided, however, that with respect to any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to or concerning injunctive relief for the Executive’s breach or purported breach of Section 8 or Section 9 of the Employment Agreement, the Company will have the right, in addition to any other remedies it may have, to seek specific performance and injunctive relief with a court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to post a bond or other security. Each of the Executive and the Company will bear its own legal expenses and will share the arbitration costs equally.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the covenants contained in this Section 9 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, and shall not amend, modify, abrogate, or otherwise alter any other restrictive covenants by which the Executive is bound pursuant to any other written agreement with the Company Group.
Section 9.2Restrictions. During the Executive’s employment with the Company and during the twelve (12) month period following the date of the Executive’s termination from employment with the Company for any reason (the “Restricted Period”; provided that, with respect to clause (a), the Restricted Period shall be reduced to six (6) months following the date of the Executive’s termination from employment with the Company

(a)directly or indirectly engage in, provide services to, have any equity interest in, or manage or operate any individual, firm, corporation, partnership, business or entity (a “Business”) (whether as director, officer, employee, principal, agent, representative, owner, partner, member, security holder, consultant or otherwise) that engages in (either directly or through any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof) any business or activity in any geographic location in which the Company Group engages in, whether through selling, distributing, manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or otherwise, that competes with any of the businesses of the Company Group or any entity owned by the Company Group (a “Competing Business”); provided that a “Competing Business” shall not include (i) hospitals or pharmacies that purchase Company Group products or similar products or (ii) retailers or wholesalers that sell Company Group products or similar products;
(b)directly or indirectly solicit or recruit, on the Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Business, the services of, or hire or engage, or interfere with the Company Group’s relationship with, any individual who is an employee, independent contractor or director of the Company Group, or solicit any of the Company Group’s then-current employees, independent contractors or directors to terminate services with the Company Group;
(c)directly or indirectly, on the Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Business, recruit or otherwise solicit for a Competing Business, any customer, client, distributor, vendor, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of the Company Group, or encourage or induce any such Person to terminate its arrangement with the Company Group or otherwise change or interfere with its relationship with the Company Group.
Section 9.3THE EXECUTIVE REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES THE EXECUTIVE POSSESSES AT THE TIME OF COMMENCEMENT OF EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER ARE SUFFICIENT TO PERMIT THE EXECUTIVE, IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION OF THE EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER, TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD SATISFACTORY TO THE EXECUTIVE WITHOUT VIOLATING ANY PROVISION OF SECTION 8 OR 9 HEREOF, FOR EXAMPLE, BY USING SUCH KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES, OR SOME OF THEM, IN THE SERVICE OF A NON-COMPETITOR.
Section 9.4Non-Disparagement. The Executive shall not, during the term of the Executive’s employment or at any time thereafter, whether in writing or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage the Company Group, or any current or former directors, officers, or employees of the Company Group, with respect to any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing or orally) statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned parties in an unfavorable light. The Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent the Executive from making truthful statements (a) in any legal proceeding or as otherwise required by law, or from reporting possible violations of US federal law or regulation or EU or domestic law to a governmental agency or entity; (b) when requested by a governmental, regulatory, or similar body or entity; (c) in confidence to a professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional advice; (d) in the course of performing Executive’s duties during the Executive’s term of employment (e.g., performance reviews); or (e) in response to statements, references or characterizations made, directly or indirectly, by the Company Group that are misleading, disparage the Executive, or reflect negatively on the Executive. The Company Group will instruct its executives and Board members not to disparage the Executive to the same extent the Executive is restricted in this Section 9.04.
Section 10.Remedies. It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of any breach of the provisions of Section 8 or 9 of this Agreement, the Company Group shall have the right and remedy, without regard to any other available remedy, to (a) have the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, (b) seek to have issued an injunction restraining any breach or threatened breach, and (c) seek any and all other remedies available to the Company Group under applicable law; it being understood that any breach of any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 could cause irreparable and material damages to the Company Group (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any loss of the proprietary advantage and trade secrets related to the identity of customers and suppliers), the amount of which cannot be readily determined and as to which the Company Group will not have any adequate remedy at law or in damages. The Executive agrees that any remedy at law for any breach by the Executive of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 would be inadequate, and that the Company Group would be entitled to seek injunctive relief in such a case. If it is ever held that this restriction on the Executive is too onerous and is not necessary for the protection of the Company Group, the Executive agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction may impose such lesser restrictions that may be necessary or appropriate to properly protect the Company Group. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure in one or more instances of the Company Group to insist
    8



upon performance of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9, to exercise any right or privilege herein conferred, or the waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9 shall not be construed as a subsequent waiver by the Company Group of any breach of any of the covenants or restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 or 9, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect as if no forbearance or waiver had occurred.
Section 11.Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part because of the duration or scope thereof, the Parties hereto agree that said court in making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the Agreement in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.
Section 12.Notices. Any and all notices or other communication required or permitted to be given under any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) upon delivery if personally delivered, (b) three (3) days after deposit if sent by prepaid registered post, return receipt requested, (c) one (1) day after deposit if sent by a reputable overnight courier, or (d) upon confirmation if sent by facsimile or email, addressed to the Parties at the addresses set forth below (or at such other address as any Party may specify by notice to all other Parties given as aforesaid):

The Employment Term and Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated under the circumstances set forth below; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Executive shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of this
    2



Agreement unless Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.
(a)Disability. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment on written notice to Executive after having reasonably established Executive’s Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, Executive will be deemed to have a “Disability” if, as a result of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, Executive is unable to perform the core functions of Executive’s position (with or without reasonable accommodation) or is receiving income replacement benefits for a period of six (6) months or more under the Company’s long-term disability plan. Executive shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits provided for under this Agreement for any period prior to Executive’s termination by reason of Disability during which Executive is unable to work due to a physical or mental infirmity in accordance with the Company’s policies for similarly situated executives.
(b)Death. Executive’s employment shall be terminated as of the date of Executive’s death.
(c)Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause (as defined below), effective as of the date of the Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) that notifies Executive of Executive’s termination for Cause. “Cause” shall mean, for purposes of this Agreement: (i) the continued failure by Executive to use good faith efforts in the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement (other than any such failure resulting from Disability or other allowable leave of absence); (ii) the criminal felony indictment (or non-U.S. equivalent) of Executive by a court of competent jurisdiction; (iii) the engagement by Executive in misconduct that has caused, or, is reasonably likely to cause, material harm (financial or otherwise) to the Company, including, without limitation (A) the unauthorized disclosure of material secret or Confidential Information (as defined in Section 10(d) below) of the Company or any of its affiliates, (B) the debarment of the Company or any of its affiliates by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or any successor agency (the “FDA”) or any non-U.S. equivalent, or the debarment, suspension or other exclusion of the Company or any of its affiliates by any other governmental authority, or (C) the revocation, suspension or denial of any registration, license, or other governmental authorization of the Company or any of its affiliates, including any registration of the Company or any of its affiliates with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration or any successor agency (the “DEA”) and any registration or marketing authorization of the FDA or any non-U.S. equivalent; (iv) the debarment of Executive by the FDA or the debarment, suspension or other exclusion of Executive by any other governmental authority; (v) the continued material breach by Executive of this Agreement; (vi) any material breach by Executive of a Company policy; (vii) any breach by Executive of a Company policy related to sexual or other types of harassment or abusive conduct; or (viii) Executive making, or being found to have made, a certification relating to the Company’s financial statements and public filings that is known to Executive to be false. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to having Cause for Executive’s termination (other than as described in clauses (ii), (iv) and (vii) above), the Company must deliver a written demand to Executive which specifically identifies the conduct that may provide grounds for Cause within ninety (90) calendar days of the Company’s actual knowledge of such conduct, events or circumstances, and Executive must have failed to cure such conduct (if curable) within thirty (30) days after such demand. References to the Company in subsections (i) through (viii) of this paragraph shall also include affiliates of the Company.
(d)Without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause. The Company shall deliver to Executive a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of Executive’s employment without Cause and the Company shall have the option of terminating Executive’s duties and responsibilities prior to the expiration of such thirty-day notice period, provided the Company pays Base Salary through the end of such notice period.
(e)Good Reason. Executive may terminate employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of Executive’s employment for Good Reason. The Company shall have the option of terminating Executive’s duties and responsibilities prior to the expiration of such thirty-day notice period provided the Company pays Base Salary through the end of such notice period. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means any of the following without Executive’s written consent: (i) a diminution in Executive’s Base Salary, a material diminution in Target Bonus (provided that failure to earn a bonus equal to or in excess of the Target Bonus by reason of failure to achieve applicable performance goals shall not be deemed Good Reason) or material diminution in benefits; (ii) a material diminution of Executive’s position, responsibilities, duties or authorities from those in effect as of the Effective Date; (iii) any change in reporting structure such that Executive is required to report to someone other than the Chief Executive Officer of Endo, the Board or a committee of the Board; (iv) any material breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement (including the material failure to pay any amounts due hereunder when due or the failure of the Company to abide by the requirements of Section 14(a)(i) below with respect to successors or permitted assigns); or (v) the Company requiring Executive to be based at (and regularly commute to) any office or location that increases the length of Executive’s commute by
    3



more than fifty (50) miles when compared to the Effective Date. Executive shall provide notice of the existence of the Good Reason condition within ninety (90) days of the date Executive learns of the condition, and the Company shall have a period of thirty (30) days during which it may remedy the condition, and in case of full remedy such condition shall not be deemed to constitute Good Reason hereunder.
(f)Without Good Reason. Executive may voluntarily terminate Executive’s employment without Good Reason by delivering to the Company a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7 below) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of Executive’s employment and the Company shall have the option of terminating Executive’s duties and responsibilities prior to the expiration of such thirty-day notice period provided the Company shall not be obligated to pay any amount through the end of such notice period.
7.Notice of Termination. Any purported termination by the Company on one hand, or by Executive on the other hand, shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice that indicates a termination date, the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated. For purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination of Executive’s employment hereunder shall be effective without such Notice of Termination (unless waived by the party entitled to receive such notice).
8.Compensation Upon Termination. Upon termination of Executive’s employment during the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:
(a)Termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive without Good Reason, the Company shall pay Executive:
(i)any accrued and unpaid Base Salary, payable on the next payroll date;
(ii)any Incentive Compensation earned but unpaid in respect of any completed fiscal year preceding the termination date, payable at the time annual incentive compensation is paid to other similarly situated executives;
(iii)reimbursement for any and all monies advanced or expenses incurred in connection with Executive’s employment for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by Executive on behalf of the Company for the period ending on the termination date, which amount shall be reimbursed within thirty (30) days of the Company’s receipt of proper documentation from Executive;
(iv)any accrued and unpaid vacation pay, payable on the next payroll date;
(v)any previous compensation that Executive had previously deferred (including any interest earned or credited thereon), in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable deferred compensation plans or arrangements then in effect, to the extent vested as of Executive’s termination date, paid pursuant to the terms of such plans or arrangements; and
(vi)any amount or benefit as provided under any benefit plan or program in accordance with the terms thereof (the foregoing items in Sections 8(a)(i) through 8(a)(v) being collectively referred to as the “Accrued Compensation”).
(b)Termination by the Company for Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Disability, the Company shall pay Executive:
(i)the Accrued Compensation;
(ii)an amount equal to the Incentive Compensation that Executive would have been entitled to receive in respect of the fiscal year in which Executive’s termination date occurs, had Executive continued in employment until the end of such fiscal year, which amount, determined based on actual performance for such year relative to the performance goals applicable to Executive (but without any exercise of negative discretion with respect to Executive in excess of that applied to either similarly situated executives of the Company generally or in accordance with the Company’s historical past practice), shall be multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year through the termination date and (B) the denominator of which is 365 (the “Pro-Rata Bonus”) and shall be payable in a lump sum payment at the time such bonus or annual incentive awards are payable to other participants. Further, upon Executive’s Disability (irrespective of any
    4



termination of employment related thereto), the Company shall pay Executive for twenty-four (24) consecutive months thereafter regular payments in the amount, if any, by which Executive’s monthly Base Salary exceeds Executive’s monthly Disability insurance benefit; and
(iii)continued coverage for Executive and Executive’s dependents under any health, medical, dental, vision and basic life insurance (but not supplemental life insurance) program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination (as may be amended or replaced by the Company from time to time in the ordinary course), for twenty-four (24) months following such termination on the same basis as active employees, which such period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period; provided, however, that (x) the Company may instead, in its discretion, provide substantially similar benefits or payment outside of the Company’s benefit plans if the Company reasonably determines that providing such alternative benefits or payment is appropriate to minimize potential adverse tax consequences and penalties; and (y) the coverage provided hereunder shall become secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which Executive becomes eligible, and it shall be the obligation of Executive to inform the Company if Executive becomes eligible for such subsequent coverage (the “Benefits Continuation”).
(c)Termination By Reason of Death. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, the Company shall pay Executive’s beneficiaries:
(i)the Accrued Compensation;
(ii)the Pro-Rata Bonus; and
(iii)continued coverage for Executive’s dependents under any health, medical, dental, vision and basic life insurance (but not supplemental life insurance) program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination (as may be amended or replaced by the Company from time to time in the ordinary course), for twenty-four (24) months following such termination on the same basis as the dependents of active employees, which such period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period.
(d)Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (other than on account of Executive’s Disability or death) or by Executive for Good Reason, then, subject to Section 14(e), the Company shall pay Executive:
(i)the Accrued Compensation;
(ii)the Pro-Rata Bonus;
(iii)in lieu of any further Base Salary or other compensation and benefits for periods subsequent to the termination date, an amount in cash, which amount shall be payable in a lump sum payment within sixty (60) days following such termination (subject to Section 9(c)), equal to two (2) times the sum of (A) Executive’s Base Salary and (B) the Target Bonus; and
(iv)the Benefits Continuation.
(e)No Mitigation. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for under this Section 8 by seeking other employment or otherwise and, except as provided in Sections 8(b)(iii) and 8(d)(iv) above, no such payment shall be offset or reduced by the amount of any compensation or benefits provided to Executive in any subsequent employment. Further, the Company’s obligations to make any payments hereunder shall not be subject to or affected by any setoff, counterclaim or defense which the Company may have against Executive.
9.Certain Tax Treatment.
(a)Golden Parachute Tax. To the extent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement and benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, Executive under any other plan or agreement of the Company or any of its affiliates (such payments or benefits are collectively referred to as the “Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed under Section 4999 of the Code or any successor provision thereto, or any similar tax imposed by state or local law, then Executive may, in Executive’s sole discretion (except as provided herein below) waive the right to receive any payments or distributions (or a portion thereof) by the
    5



Company in the nature of compensation to or for Executive’s benefit if and to the extent necessary so that no Payment to be made or benefit to be provided to Executive shall be subject to the Excise Tax (such reduced amount is hereinafter referred to as the “Limited Payment Amount”), but only if such reduction results in a higher after-tax payment to Executive after taking into account the Excise Tax and any additional taxes (including federal, state and local income taxes, employment, social security and Medicare taxes and all other applicable taxes) Executive would pay if such Payments were not reduced. If so waived, the Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments, to effect the provisions of this Section 9 based upon Section 9(b) below. The determination of the amount of Payments that would be required to be reduced to the Limited Payment Amount pursuant to this Agreement and the amount of such Limited Payment Amount shall be made, at the Company’s expense, by a reputable accounting firm selected by Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determination (the “Determination”), together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation to the Company and Executive within ten (10) days of the date of termination, if applicable, or such other time as specified by mutual agreement of the Company and Executive, and if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive with respect to the Payments, it shall furnish Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to any such Payments. The Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon the Company and Executive, absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 9(a), the Accounting Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and rates, and rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the Code, and other applicable legal authority. In furtherance of the above, to the extent requested by Executive, the Company shall cooperate in good faith in valuing, and the Accounting Firm shall value, services to be provided by Executive (including Executive refraining from performing services pursuant to any covenant not to compete) before, on or after the date of the transaction which causes the application of Section 4999 of the Code, such that payments in respect of such services may be considered to be “reasonable compensation” within the meaning of the regulations under Section 4999 of the Code.
(b)Ordering of Reduction. In the case of a reduction in the Payments pursuant to Section 9(a), the Payments will be reduced in the following order: (i) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) will be reduced (if necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; (iii) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last reduced first, will next be reduced; (iv) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; and (v) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses (ii) or (iv) will be next reduced pro-rata.
(c)Section 409A. The parties intend for the payments and benefits under this Agreement to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code or, if not so exempt, to be paid or provided in a manner which complies with the requirements of such section, and intend that this Agreement shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intention. In the event the Company determines that a payment or benefit under this Agreement may not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, subject to Section 5(a) herein, the Company shall reasonably confer with Executive in order to modify or amend this Agreement to comply with Section 409A of the Code and to do so in a manner to best preserve the economic benefit of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, (i) no amounts shall be paid to Executive under Section 8 of this Agreement until Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code; (ii) amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following Executive’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service (or death, if earlier), with interest for any cash payments so delayed, from the date such cash amounts would otherwise have been paid at the short-term applicable federal rate, compounded semi-annually, as determined under Section 1274 of the Code for the month in which the payment would have been made but for the delay in payment required to avoid the imposition of an additional rate of tax on Executive; (iii) each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separately identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code; (iv) any payments that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise; and (v) amounts reimbursable to Executive under this Agreement shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in-kind benefits provided to Executive) during any one (1) year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year.
10.Records and Confidential Data.
    6



(a)Executive acknowledges that in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties during the Employment Term, the Company or its affiliates will make available to Executive, or Executive will develop and have access to, certain Confidential Information (as defined below) of the Company and its affiliates. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any and all Confidential Information learned or obtained by Executive during the course of Executive’s employment by the Company or otherwise, whether developed by Executive alone or in conjunction with others or otherwise, shall be and is the property of the Company and its affiliates.
(b)During the Employment Term and thereafter, Confidential Information will be kept confidential by Executive, will not be used in any manner that is detrimental to the Company or its affiliates, will not be used other than in connection with Executive’s discharge of Executive’s duties hereunder, and will be safeguarded by Executive from unauthorized disclosure; provided, however, that Confidential Information may be disclosed by Executive (i) to the Company and its affiliates, or to any authorized agent or representative of any of them, (ii) in connection with performing Executive’s duties hereunder, (iii) without limiting Section 10(g) of this Agreement, when required to do so by law or requested by a court, governmental agency, legislative body, arbitrator or other person with apparent jurisdiction to order Executive to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information, provided that Executive, to the extent legally permitted, notifies the Company prior to such disclosure, (iv) in the course of any proceeding under Sections 11 or 12 of this Agreement or Section 6 of the Release, subject to the prior entry of a confidentiality order, or (v) in confidence to an attorney or other professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional advice, so long as such attorney or advisor is subject to confidentiality restrictions no less restrictive than those applicable to Executive hereunder.
(c)On Executive’s last day of employment with the Company, or at such earlier date as requested by the Company, (i) Executive will return to the Company all written Confidential Information that has been provided to, or prepared by, Executive; (ii) at the election of the Company, Executive will return to the Company or destroy all copies of any analyses, compilations, studies or other documents prepared by Executive or for Executive’s use containing or reflecting any Confidential Information; and (iii) Executive will return all Company property. Executive shall deliver to the Company a document certifying Executive’s compliance with this Section 10(c).
(d)For the purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean all confidential and proprietary information of the Company and its affiliates, including:
(i)trade secrets concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its affiliates, product specifications, data, know-how, formulae, compositions, processes, nonpublic patent applications, designs, sketches, photographs, graphs, drawings, samples, inventions and ideas, past, current, and planned research and development, current and planned manufacturing or distribution methods and processes, customer lists, current and anticipated customer requirements, price lists, market studies, business plans, computer software and programs (including object code and source code), computer software and database technologies, systems, structures, and architectures (and related formulae, compositions, processes, improvements, devices, know-how, inventions, discoveries, concepts, ideas, designs, methods and information);
(ii)information concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its affiliates (which includes unpublished financial statements, financial projections and budgets, unpublished and projected sales, capital spending budgets and plans, the names and backgrounds of key personnel, to the extent not publicly known, personnel training and techniques and materials) however documented; and
(iii)notes, analysis, compilations, studies, summaries, and other material prepared by or for the Company or its affiliates containing or based, in whole or in part, on any information included in the foregoing. For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not include and Executive’s obligations shall not extend to (A) information that is generally available to the public, (B) information obtained by Executive other than pursuant to or in connection with this employment, (C) information that is required to be disclosed by law or legal process, and (D) Executive’s rolodex and similar address books, including electronic address books, containing contact information.
(e)Nothing herein or elsewhere shall preclude Executive from retaining and using (i) Executive’s personal papers and other materials of a personal nature, including photographs, contacts, correspondence, personal diaries, and personal files (so long as no such materials are covered by any Company hold order), (ii) documents relating to Executive’s personal entitlements and obligations, and (iii) information that is necessary for Executive’s personal tax purposes.
(f)Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b), Executive understands that Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret of the Company or its affiliates that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either
    7



directly or indirectly, or to Executive’s attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. Executive understands that if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Executive (x) files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and (y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Agreement, or any other agreement that Executive has with the Company or its affiliates, is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by such section.
(g)Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement or any other agreement that Executive has with the Company or its affiliates to the contrary, Executive shall not be prohibited from reporting possible violations of federal or state law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, legislative body, or any self-regulatory organization, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation, nor is Executive required to notify the Company regarding any such reporting, disclosure or cooperation with the government.
11.Covenant Not to Solicit, Not to Compete, Not to Disparage, to Cooperate in Litigation and Not to Cooperate with Non-Governmental Third Parties.
(a)Covenant Not to Solicit. To protect the Confidential Information and other trade secrets of the Company and its affiliates as well as the goodwill and competitive business of the Company and its affiliates, Executive agrees, during the Employment Term and for a period of twelve (12) months after Executive’s cessation of employment with the Company, not to solicit or participate in or assist in any way in the solicitation of any (i) customers or clients of the Company or its affiliates whom Executive first met or about whom learned Confidential Information through Executive’s employment with the Company and (ii) suppliers, employees or agents of the Company or its affiliates. For purposes of this covenant, “solicit” or “solicitation” means directly or indirectly influencing or attempting to influence any customers, clients, suppliers, employees or agents of the Company or its affiliates to cease doing business with, or to reduce the level of business with, the Company and its affiliates or, with respect to employees or exclusive agents, to become employed or engaged by any other person, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity. Executive agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 11(a) are reasonable and desirable to protect the Confidential Information of the Company and its affiliates; provided, that solicitation through general advertising not targeted at the Company’s or its affiliates’ employees or the provision of references shall not constitute a breach of such obligations.
(b)Covenant Not to Compete.
(i)The Company and its affiliates are currently engaged in the business of branded and generic pharmaceuticals, with a focus on product development, clinical development, manufacturing, distribution and sales & marketing. To protect the Confidential Information and other trade secrets of the Company and its affiliates as well as the goodwill and competitive business of the Company and its affiliates, Executive agrees, during the Employment Term and for a period of twelve (12) months after Executive’s cessation of employment with the Company, that Executive will not, unless otherwise agreed to by the Chief Executive Officer of Endo (following approval by the Chair of the Committee), anywhere in the world where, at the time of Executive’s termination of employment, the Company develops, manufactures, distributes, markets or sells its products, except in the course of Executive’s employment hereunder, directly or indirectly manage, operate, control, or participate in the management, operation, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner connected with, lend Executive’s name to, or render services or advice to, any third party or any business whose products or services compete in whole or in part with the products or services (both on the market and in development) material to the Company or any business unit on the termination date that constitutes more than 5% of the Company’s revenue on the termination date (a “Competing Business”); provided, however, that Executive may in any event (x) own up to a 5% passive ownership interest in any public or private entity and (y) serve on the board of any Competing Business that competes with the business of the Company and its affiliates as an immaterial part of its overall business, provided that Executive recuses Executive fully and completely from all matters relating to such business.
(ii)For purposes of this Section 11(b), any third party or any business whose products compete includes any entity with which the Company or its affiliates has had a product(s) licensing agreement during the Employment Term and any entity with which the Company or any of its affiliates is at the time of termination actively negotiating, and eventually concludes within twelve (12) months of the Employment Term, a commercial agreement.
(iii)Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall not be a violation of this Section 11(b), for Executive to provide services to (or engage in activities involving): (A) a subsidiary, division or affiliate of a
    8



Competing Business where such subsidiary, division or affiliate is not engaged in a Competing Business and Executive does not provide services to, or have any responsibilities regarding, the Competing Business; (B) any entity that is, or is a general partner in, or manages or participates in managing, a private or public fund (including a hedge fund) or other investment vehicle, which is engaged in venture capital investments, leveraged buy-outs, investments in public or private companies, other forms of private or alternative equity transactions, or in public equity transactions, and that might make an investment which Executive could not make directly, provided that in connection therewith, Executive does not provide services to, engage in activities involved with, or have any responsibilities regarding a Competing Business; and (C) an affiliate of a Competing Business if Executive does not provide services, directly or indirectly, to such Competing Business and the basis of the affiliation is solely due to common ownership by a private equity or similar investment fund; provided, that, in each case, Executive shall remain bound by all other postemployment obligations under this Agreement including Executive’s obligations under Sections 10, 11(a), 11(c) and 11(d) herein; provided, further, that Executive’s provision of services to (or engagement in activities involving) any entity described in clauses (A) or (B) of this Section 11(b)(iii) shall be subject to the prior approval of the Board.
(c)Nondisparagement. Executive covenants that during and following the Employment Term, Executive will not disparage or encourage or induce others to disparage the Company or its affiliates, together with all of their respective past and present directors and officers, as well as their respective past and present managers, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, attorneys, servants and customers and each of their predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Entities and Persons”); provided, that such limitation shall extend to past and present managers, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, attorneys, servants and customers only in their capacities as such or in respect of their relationship with the Company and its affiliates. The Company shall instruct its officers and directors not to, during and following the Employment Term, make or issue any statement that disparages Executive to any third parties or otherwise encourage or induce others to disparage Executive. The term “disparage” includes, without limitation, comments or statements adversely affecting in any manner (i) the conduct of the business of the Company Entities and Persons or Executive, or (ii) the business reputation of the Company Entities and Persons or Executive. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall prevent either party from providing, or limiting testimony in any judicial, administrative or legal process or otherwise as required by law, prevent either party from engaging in truthful testimony pursuant to any proceeding under this Section 11 or Section 12 below or Section 6 of the Release or prevent Executive from making statements in the course of doing Executive’s normal duties for the Company.
(d)Cooperation in Any Investigations and Litigation; No Cooperation with Non-Governmental Third Parties. During the Employment Term and thereafter, Executive shall provide truthful information and otherwise assist and cooperate with the Company and its affiliates, and its counsel, (i) in connection with any investigation, inquiry, administrative, regulatory or judicial proceedings, or in connection with any dispute or claim of any kind that may be made against, by, or with respect to the Company, as reasonably requested by the Company (including Executive being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are in or may come into Executive’s possession), and (ii) in all matters concerning requests for information about the services or advice Executive provides or provided to the Company during Executive’s employment with the Company, its affiliates and their predecessors. Such cooperation shall be subject to Executive’s business and personal commitments and shall not require Executive to cooperate against Executive’s own legal interests or the legal interests of any future employer of Executive. Executive shall use the Company’s counsel for all matters in connection with this Section 11(d); provided, however, that if there exists an actual conflict of interest between Executive and the Company’s counsel, Executive may retain separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company. The existence of an actual conflict of interest, and whether such conflict may be waived, shall be determined pursuant to the rules of attorney professional conduct and applicable law. The Company agrees to promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses reasonably incurred by Executive, in connection with Executive’s cooperation pursuant to this Section 11(d) (including travel expenses at the level of travel permitted by this Agreement and reasonable attorney fees in the event separate legal counsel for Executive is required due to a conflict of interest). Such reimbursements shall be made as soon as practicable, and in no event later than the calendar year following the year in which the expenses are incurred. Executive also shall not support (financially or otherwise), counsel or assist any attorneys or their clients or any other non-governmental person in the presentation or prosecution of, encourage any non-governmental person to raise, or suggest or recommend to any non-governmental person that such person could or should raise, in each case, any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints against the Company and/or its affiliates that (x) arises out of, or relates to, any period of time on or prior to Executive’s last day of employment with the Company or (y) involves any information Executive learned during Executive’s employment with the Company; provided, that, following the second anniversary of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, such prohibition shall not extend to any such actions taken by Executive on behalf of (A) Executive’s then current employer, (B) any entity with respect to which Executive is then a member of the board of directors or managers (as applicable), or (C) any non-publicly traded entity with respect to which Executive is a 5% or more equity owner (or any affiliate of any such entities

referenced in clauses (A), (B) or (C)). Executive agrees that, in the event Executive is subpoenaed by any person or entity (including any government agency) to give testimony (in a deposition, court proceeding or otherwise) which in any way relates to Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive will, to the extent not legally prohibited from doing so, give prompt notice of such request to the Chief Legal Officer of Endo so that the Company may contest the right of the requesting person or entity to such disclosure before making such disclosure. Nothing in this provision shall require Executive to violate Executive’s obligation to comply with valid legal process.
(e)Blue Pencil. It is the intent and desire of Executive and the Company that the provisions of this Section 11 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 this Section 11 shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such covenant 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.
12.Remedies for Breach of Obligations under Sections 10 or 11 hereof. Executive acknowledges that the Company and its affiliates will suffer irreparable injury, not readily susceptible of valuation in monetary damages, if Executive breaches Executive’s obligations under Sections 10 or 11 hereof. Accordingly, Executive agrees that the Company and its affiliates will be entitled, in addition to any other available remedies, to obtain injunctive relief against any breach or prospective breach by Executive of Executive’s obligations under Sections 10 or 11 hereof in any federal or state court sitting in the State of Delaware or, at the Company’s election, in any other state in which Executive maintains Executive’s principal residence or Executive’s principal place of business. Executive hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of all those courts for the purposes of any actions or proceedings instituted by the Company or its affiliates to obtain that injunctive relief, and Executive agrees that process in any or all of those actions or proceedings may be served by registered mail, addressed to the last address provided by Executive to the Company, or in any other manner authorized by law.
13.Representations and Warranties.
(a)The Company represents and warrants that (i) it is fully authorized by action of the Board (and of any other person or body whose action is required) to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations under it, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it does not violate any applicable law, regulation, order, judgment or decree or any agreement, arrangement, plan or corporate governance document (x) to which it is a party or (y) by which it is bound, and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties, this Agreement shall be its valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.
(b)     Executive represents and warrants to the Company that the execution and delivery by Executive of this Agreement do not, and the performance by Executive of Executive’s obligations hereunder will not, with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both: (a) violate any judgment, writ, injunction, or order of any court, arbitrator, or governmental agency applicable to Executive; or (b) conflict with, result in the breach of any provisions of or the termination of, or constitute a default under, any agreement to which Executive is a party or by which Executive is or may be bound.

(i)This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and permitted assigns and the Company shall require any successor or permitted assign to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place.

(g)Executive Acknowledgement. Executive acknowledges and agrees Executive is subject to the Common Stock Ownership Guidelines for Non-Employee Directors and Executive Management of Endo, Inc., as may be amended from time to time, and that Executive shall be subject to and shall adhere to any compensation clawback and/or recovery policies of the Company applicable to similarly situated executives, which shall apply, as applicable, to any compensation and benefits provided to Executive under this Agreement or in connection with Executive’s employment with the Company, or Executive’s termination therefrom.

Any delay in providing benefits or payments, any failure to provide a benefit or payment, or any repayment of compensation that is required under the preceding sentence shall not in and of itself constitute a breach
    11



of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall provide economically equivalent payments or benefits to Executive to the extent permitted by law.
(j)-Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within such State, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

(k)No Conflicts. Executive represents and warrants to the Company that Executive is not a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement or arrangement (including any license, covenant, or commitment of any nature), or subject to any judgment, decree, or order of any court or administrative agency, that would conflict with or will be in conflict with or in any way preclude, limit or inhibit Executive’s ability to execute this Agreement or to carry out Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Company represents and warrants to Executive that the Company is not a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement or arrangement (including any license, covenant, or commitment of any nature), or subject to any judgment, decree, or order of any court or administrative agency, that would conflict with or will be in conflict with or in any way preclude, limit or inhibit the Company’s ability to execute this Agreement or to carry out the Company’s duties and responsibilities hereunder.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive the Employment Term and any termination of Executive’s employment. Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, the provisions of Sections 10, 11, and 12 shall survive the termination of the Employment Term.
(p)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto and, as of the Effective Date, supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and arrangements, oral or written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, including any employment agreement with Endo, Inc., Endo International plc or any of their respective affiliates.

UNDER THE 2024 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
(EMPLOYEE FORM)
This Stock Award Notice (this “Award Notice”) is being provided to the participant (the “Participant”) by Endo, Inc. (the “Company”) as of the date of grant set forth below (the “Date of Grant”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the version of the Endo, Inc. 2024 Stock Incentive Plan as in effect on the Date of Grant (the “Plan”). Where the context permits, references to the Company shall include any successor to the Company.
Name of Participant:[ ]
Number of Stock Awards:[ ]
Date of Grant:[ ]
Vesting Dates:[ ]
Note, Sections 1 through 24 of this Award Notice reflect general terms and, as applicable, are modified by Section 25 with respect to the laws of any country or jurisdiction where the Participant’s awards are granted.
1.Grant of Stock Awards. The Company hereby grants to the Participant the total number of restricted stock units set forth above (the “Stock Awards”), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Award Notice and the Plan.
2.Form of Payment and Vesting.
(a)The Stock Awards granted hereunder shall vest on the vesting dates set forth above, provided that the Participant is employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries on the applicable vesting date (except as set forth in Section 4 or 5 of this Award Notice or any other individual agreement with the Participant). Unless otherwise provided in an individual agreement with the Participant, or in Section 4 of this Award Notice, if the Participant has a termination of service (including in the event that the Participant Retires), the Stock Awards that are unvested as of the date of such termination shall be forfeited.
(b)The Participant shall be entitled to receive one share of Company Stock in respect of each vested Stock Award as soon as practicable following the applicable vesting date, but no later than the later to occur of (i) the end of the calendar year in which the applicable vesting date occurs and (ii) the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the applicable vesting date (unless modified by an election made by the Participant under any deferral plan established by the Company from time to time).
3.Restrictions. The Stock Awards granted hereunder may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, and shall be subject to a risk of forfeiture until any requirements or restrictions contained in this Award Notice or in the Plan have been otherwise satisfied, terminated or expressly waived by the Company in writing.
4.Termination of Service.
(a)Termination of Service on Account of Death or Disability. Upon termination of the Participant’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries on account of (i) death or (ii) Disability that also constitutes a “disability” within the meaning of Section 409A, in each case, all of the Participant’s unvested Stock Awards as of the date of such termination shall immediately vest.
(b)Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason. Upon termination of the Participant’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Company or its
1


Subsidiaries without Cause, the Stock Awards that are unvested as of the date of such termination shall be forfeited on such termination date, except that, if the Participant’s termination occurs on any date other than a vesting date, a portion of the Participant’s then-unvested Stock Awards shall vest (and be settled in shares of Company Stock in accordance with Section 2 above as if such shares had vested on the first vesting date after the Participant’s termination of service) equal to the number of then-unvested Stock Awards that would have otherwise vested on the first vesting date after the Participant’s termination of service; multiplied by a fraction:
(i)the numerator of which is the number of days that the Participant provided services to the Company and its Subsidiaries (y) beginning on the later of the Date of Grant or, if applicable, the most-recent vesting date prior to the Participant’s termination of service and (z) ending on the Participant’s termination date; and
(ii)the denominator of which is the total number of days (y) beginning on the later of the Date of Grant or, if applicable, the most-recent vesting date prior to the Participant’s termination of service and (z) ending on the first vesting date after the Participant’s termination of service.
If a Participant is a party to an employment agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary and such employment agreement provides for benefits on a termination of employment for “Good Reason,” a termination of the Participant’s employment for Good Reason shall constitute a termination without Cause for purposes of this Section 4(b).
5.Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, if the Stock Awards are not assumed or substituted in connection with such Change in Control, then the Stock Awards shall immediately vest upon the occurrence of the Change in Control.
6.No Shareholder Rights Prior to Delivery. The Participant shall not have any rights of a shareholder (including the right to distributions or dividends) with respect to the Stock Award until shares of Company Stock are delivered pursuant to the terms of this Award Notice.
7.Stock Award Notice Subject to Plan. This Award Notice is made pursuant to all of the provisions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference, and is intended, and shall be interpreted in a manner, to comply therewith. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Award Notice and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern, except as expressly provided herein or therein.
8.No Rights to Continuation of Service. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Notice shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof or shall interfere with or restrict the right of the Company or its shareholders (or of a Subsidiary or its shareholders, as the case may be) to terminate the Participant’s service at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.
9.Tax Withholding.
(a)As a condition to acceptance of any shares of Company Stock in settlement of this Stock Award, you authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including), any sums required to be withheld (or permitted to be withheld in a manner that will not cause adverse accounting consequences for the Company) to satisfy any U.S. federal, state, local and/or foreign tax or social insurance contribution withholding obligations (the “Required Tax Payments”) of the Company, if any, which arise in connection with this Stock Award. If you fail to advance the Required Tax Payments after request by the Company, the Company may, in its discretion, deduct any Required Tax Payments from any amount then or thereafter payable by the Company to you.
(b)You may satisfy your obligation to advance the Required Tax Payments with respect to this Stock Award by any of the following means, subject to Company approval of the availability of any particular means: (i) a cash payment to the Company pursuant to Section 9(a), (ii) delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of previously owned whole shares of Company Stock (which you have held for at least six (6) months prior to the delivery of such Shares or which you purchased on the open market and for which you have good title, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances) having a Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the obligation to withhold or pay taxes first arises in connection with this Stock Award (the “Tax Date”), equal to the Required Tax Payments, (iii) authorizing the Company to withhold from the Shares otherwise to be delivered to you pursuant to this Stock Award, a number of whole shares of Company
2


Stock having a Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, (iv) a cash payment following your sale of (or by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company through which you have sold) a number of shares of Company Stock with respect to which the Required Tax Payments have arisen having a Fair Market Value determined as of the Tax Date equal to the Required Tax Payments, or (v) any combination of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above. Any fraction of a share of Company Stock which would be required to satisfy such an obligation shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash by you. No certificate representing a share of Company Stock shall be delivered until the Required Tax Payments have been satisfied in full.
10.Section 409A Compliance. The Stock Award is intended to comply with Section 409A to the extent subject thereto and shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan or this Award Notice to the contrary, no payment or distribution under this Award Notice that constitutes an item of deferred compensation under Section 409A and becomes payable by reason of the Participant’s termination of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries will be made to the Participant until the Participant’s termination of service constitutes a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A). For purposes of this Award Notice, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A. If the Participant is a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A), then to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, such Participant shall not be entitled to any payments upon a termination of his or her service until the earlier of: (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such Participant’s “separation from service” and (ii) the date of such Participant’s death. Upon the expiration of the applicable waiting period set forth in the preceding sentence, all payments and benefits deferred pursuant to this Section 10 (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single lump sum or in installments in the absence of such deferral) shall be paid to such Participant in a lump sum as soon as practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days, following such expired period, and any remaining payments due under this Award Notice will be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.
11.Governing Law. This Award Notice shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws, and not the laws pertaining to conflicts or choices of laws, of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed wholly within the State of Delaware.
12.Binding on Successors. The terms of this Award Notice shall be binding upon the Participant and upon the Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, transferees, assignees and successors in interest, and upon the Company and its successors and assignees, subject to the terms of the Plan.
13.No Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Award Notice, neither this Award Notice nor any rights granted herein shall be assignable by the Participant.
14.Necessary Acts. The Participant hereby agrees to perform all acts, and to execute and deliver any documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Award Notice, including but not limited to all acts and documents related to compliance with federal and/or state securities and/or tax laws and applicable Irish law.
15.Entire Stock Award Notice. This Award Notice and the Plan contain the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the subject matter hereof.
16.Headings. Headings are used solely for the convenience of the parties and shall not be deemed to be a limitation upon or descriptive of the contents of any such Section.
17.Counterparts. This Award Notice may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.
18.Notices. All notices and other communications under this Award Notice shall be in writing and shall be given by first class mail, certified or registered with return receipt requested, and shall be deemed to have been duly given three days after mailing to the respective parties named below:

WHEREAS, in connection with the business combination between Endo, Inc. and Mallinckrodt plc (which is now known as Keenova Therapeutics plc (“Keenova”)), the portions of your Stock Award and Performance Award that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the business combination were assumed by Keenova and converted into restricted unit awards in respect of Keenova ordinary shares, as described in more detail in that certain Notice of Adjustment of Outstanding Equity Awards dated July 31, 2025 that was previously provided to you;
WHEREAS, your Stock Award and Performance Award are amended by this Amendment #1, effective as of February 24, 2026, as follows:
1.Section 5 of your Stock Award is amended to add the following at the end:
“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent not already vested, the Stock Award will become fully vested on a Change in Control, as such term is defined in the Keenova Therapeutics plc 2025 Stock and Incentive Plan, subject to your continued service through such a Change in Control. Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after such a Change in Control.”
2.Section 5 of your Performance Award is amended in its entirety as follows:

Payment shall be made on or within 30 days after the Change in Control.”
3.Your Stock Award and Performance Award are amended to include the following Put Right. All terms below are as defined in the Keenova Therapeutics plc 2025 Stock and Incentive Plan:
Put Right. Provided the Company’s ordinary shares are not listed on a national securities exchange (within the meaning of the U.S. securities laws), during the 90-day period following each of (a) May 3, 2027 and (b) May 3, 2029 (each, a “Put Period”), you will have the option to require the Company (via written notice to the Company (the “Put Notice”)) to repurchase either 50% or 100% of the Shares you receive in settlement of your Award (the “Put Shares”), provided that you have not been terminated for Cause; and provided further that your heirs and representatives (if you are incapacitated following Disability) shall have the right to exercise the Put Right in the event of your death or Disability) and your compliance with any applicable restrictive covenants in all material respects through any such purchase date (the “Put Right”). Following your exercise of the Put Right, the Company shall be required to repurchase the Put Shares within 90 days following the Put Notice at a price equal to the Fair Market Value on the date of repurchase; provided that if the Company determines reasonably and in good faith that a Repurchase Prohibition exists, then the Company shall have the right, upon written notice to you, at the Company’s election, to (a) delay the consummation of the repurchase until up to forty-five (45) days following the date that the Company determines in good faith that such Repurchase Prohibition ceases to apply, (b) consummate the repurchase but delay the payment of the purchase price in respect of the Put Shares until the expiration of such forty-five (45) day period or (c) consummate the repurchase but make payment of the purchase price in respect of the Put Shares subject thereto in the form of a promissory note, bearing interest at the prime rate and payable upon the earliest to occur of the Repurchase Prohibition ceasing to apply, the third anniversary of the date of the Put

For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Put Right shall not limit your ability to participate in any other Company-sponsored share repurchase programs, subject to the terms and conditions of any such share repurchase programs.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Note, Sections 1 through 24 of this Award Notice reflect general terms and, as applicable, are modified by Section 25 with respect to the laws of any country or jurisdiction where the Participant’s awards are granted.
1.Grant of Performance Awards. The Company hereby grants to the Participant the total number of restricted stock units set forth in the Performance Award Grant Notice (the “Target Award”), 100% of which shall be subject to the performance conditions set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the “Performance Award”). The Performance Award shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Award Notice and the Plan.
2.Form of Payment and Vesting. The restricted stock units underlying the Performance Award shall vest on the Vesting Date in a number of shares of Company Stock equal to the Target Award multiplied by the applicable Payout Multiple (as set forth in Exhibit A), as determined by the Committee (or its designee) as of the Vesting Date in accordance with the performance conditions set forth in Exhibit A, provided that the Participant is providing service to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries on the Vesting Date (other than as is provided by Section 4 of this Award Notice or any other individual agreement with the Participant). Any shares of Company Stock earned and vested in accordance with the prior sentence shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the Vesting Date, but no later than the later to occur of (i) the end of the calendar year in which the Vesting Date occurs and (ii) the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the Vesting Date (unless modified by an election made by the Participant under any deferral plan established by the Company from time to time). Any portion of the Performance Award that could have been earned in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit A that is not earned as of the Vesting Date, as determined by the Committee (or its designee), shall be immediately forfeited.
3.Restrictions. The Performance Award granted hereunder may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, and shall be subject to a risk of forfeiture until any requirements or restrictions contained in this Award Notice or in the Plan have been otherwise satisfied, terminated or expressly waived by the Company in writing.
4.Termination of Service.
(a)Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason. Upon termination of the Participant’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Company or its Subsidiaries without Cause prior to the Vesting Date, a prorated portion of the restricted stock units underlying the Performance Award shall vest on the Vesting Date (and shall be settled in shares of Company Stock in accordance with Section 2 above) in a number of shares of Company Stock equal to the product of (i) the Target Award, (ii) the applicable Payout Multiple (as set forth in Exhibit A), as determined by the Committee (or its designee) as of the Vesting Date in accordance with the performance conditions set forth in Exhibit A, and (iii) a fraction (y) the numerator of which is the number of days of the Participant’s service beginning on the first day of the Performance Period and ending on the termination date and (z) the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period (as defined in Exhibit A). Any portion of the Performance Award that could have been earned in accordance with this Section 4(a) that is not earned as of the date of the Participant’s termination of service shall be immediately forfeited on the date of the Participant’s termination of service. If a Participant is a party to an employment agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary and such employment agreement provides for benefits on a termination of employment for “Good Reason,” a termination of the Participant’s employment for Good Reason shall constitute a termination without Cause for purposes of this Section 4(a).
(b)Unless otherwise provided in an individual agreement with the Participant, or in Section 4 of this Award Notice, if the Participant has a termination of service (including in the event that the Participant Retires), the unvested portion, if any, of the Participant’s Performance Award shall be forfeited as of the date of such termination of service.
5.Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the Vesting Date, if the Performance Award is not assumed or substituted in connection with such

RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD (“Award”) granted on _______, 202__ (the “Grant Date”).
1.Grant of Restricted Units. Mallinckrodt plc (the “Company”) has granted you [____] Restricted Units subject to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions and the Plan. The Company will hold the Restricted Units in a bookkeeping account on your behalf until such units become payable or are forfeited or cancelled.
2.Amount and Form of Payment. Each Restricted Unit represents one (1) Ordinary Share and vested Restricted Units will be paid solely in Shares, subject to Section 10. Any Share issued pursuant to a Restricted Unit shall be paid up to its par value on issuance by a subsidiary of the Company or as otherwise determined by the Company.
3.Dividends. Each unvested Restricted Unit will be credited with a Dividend Equivalent Unit (“DEU”) for any cash or stock dividends distributed by the Company on an Ordinary Share. DEUs will be calculated at the same dividend rate paid to other holders of Ordinary Shares and will be adjusted and vest in accordance with the adjustment and vesting provisions applicable to the underlying Restricted Units and shall be paid as of the same date payment for the Restricted Units occurs.
4.Vesting. The Restricted Units shall vest on the earlier of the first anniversary of _________ (the “Vesting Commencement Date”) and the first regularly scheduled shareholders meeting that occurs after the Grant Date (the earlier of such dates, the “Vesting Date”), subject to your continued service through the Vesting Date. Payment of vested Restricted Units and associated DEUs shall be made no later than sixty (60) days following the Vesting Date. If your service as a Director terminates before full (100%) vesting, you will forfeit the unvested portion of Restricted Units and associated DEUs. However, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Plan, if your service as Director terminates due to death, Disability, or a termination by the Company without Cause, Restricted Units and associated DEUs subject to this Award will become vested and shall be paid to the extent set forth in Section 5 or Section 6, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of Section 5.3(a) of the Plan apply to this Award.
5.Disability or Death. If your service as a Director terminates as a result of your death or a Disability, then you will become fully vested in all Restricted Units subject to this Award on the date of your death or Termination of Directorship due to Disability.

6.Termination of Directorship by the Company without Cause. Notwithstanding the vesting provisions described in Section 4, upon your Termination of Directorship by the Company without Cause, a number of Restricted Units equal to the product of the number of Restricted Units subject to this Award multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months between the Vesting Commencement Date and your Termination of Directorship and the denominator of which is thirty-six, minus any Restricted Units subject to this Award that previously vested, will become vested as of the effective date of your release of claims in the form provided by the Company (the “Release”) (which Release must become effective and irrevocable within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Directorship). Payment of such vested amounts shall be made within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Directorship; provided that you shall not have the right, directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment.
7.Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, if the Restricted Units are not substituted with comparable awards payable in shares of publicly-traded stock after the Change in Control, then the Restricted Units shall become fully vested immediately prior to the Change in Control. Payment of such vested amounts shall be made on or within 30 days; provided that, you shall not have the right,



directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment. If the Restricted Units are substituted with comparable awards payable or redeemable in shares of publicly-traded stock after the Change in Control, the Restricted Units will continue in accordance with the terms hereof, provided that in the event of your Change in Control Termination, your then-unvested Restricted Units will vest in full, subject to your execution of a Release and such Release becoming irrevocable within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Directorship. Payment of such vested amounts shall be made within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Directorship; provided that you shall not have the right, directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment.

If, at any time after the Grant Date, you become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Company may be required to withhold or account for applicable tax requirements in the various jurisdictions. Furthermore, if the Shares subject to this Award vest under circumstances where they have not otherwise been fully paid-up in accordance with the requirements of Irish law, the Company or any Subsidiary may require you to pay the par value of each Share which vests hereunder at the time of such vesting. If the Company or any Subsidiary cannot withhold or account for all taxes associated with this Award, or obtain payment of the par value of each Share that vests hereunder, by application of the means described herein, then, by accepting this Award, you agree that you will pay to the Company or any Subsidiary all amounts necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements or the requirement that Shares be issued on a fully paid-up basis and acknowledge that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares subject to this Award or delay such issuance or delivery of the proceeds from the sale of such Shares, if you do not comply with such obligations.

By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you understand that the Company is under no obligation to register this Award or the



Shares subject to this Award with any governmental agency or to seek approval from any governmental agency for the issuance or sale of Shares subject to this Award.
11.Disposition of Securities. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you have read and understand the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and are aware of and understand your obligations under United States federal securities laws with respect to trading in the Company’s securities.

You further agree that this Award, and your Plan participation, do not form, and will not be interpreted as forming, a service contract or guarantee of service with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company, in its sole discretion, voluntarily established the Plan and may amend or terminate it at any time pursuant to the terms of the Plan. You understand that the grant of restricted units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of any restricted units, or benefits in lieu of restricted units, even if restricted units have been granted repeatedly in the past and that all decisions with respect to future grants will be in the Company’s sole discretion. By accepting this Award, you also acknowledge that this Award and any gains received hereunder are extraordinary items and are not considered part of your compensation for any purpose. Neither this Award,



nor any gains received hereunder, is intended to replace any compensation.

requirements and to impose additional requirements on this Award or Shares subject to this Award if the Company in good faith reasonably deems it necessary to comply with applicable law and using all reasonable efforts to endeavor not to diminish the intended economic benefits of this Award.
18.Severability.

The nature of any such amendment shall be determined by the Company.

You further agree that this Award, and your Plan participation, do not form, and will not be interpreted as forming, an employment contract or guarantee of employment with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company, in its sole discretion, voluntarily established the Plan and may amend or terminate it at any time pursuant to the terms of the Plan. You understand that the grant of restricted units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of any restricted units, or benefits in lieu of restricted units, even if restricted units have been granted repeatedly in the past and that all decisions with respect to future grants will be in the Company’s sole discretion. By accepting this Award, you also acknowledge that this Award and any gains received hereunder are extraordinary items and are not considered part of your salary or compensation for purposes of any pension or retirement benefits or for purposes of calculating any termination, severance, redundancy, resignation, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, life or accident insurance benefits or similar payments. Neither this Award, nor any gains received hereunder, is intended to replace any pension rights or compensation. If the Company or Subsidiary terminates your employment for any reason, you agree that you will not be entitled to damages or compensation for breach of contract, dismissal (in any circumstances, including unfair dismissal) or compensation for loss of office or otherwise to any sum, Shares, Restricted Units or other benefits to compensate you for the loss or diminution in value of any actual or prospective rights, benefits or expectation under or in relation to the Plan, except as otherwise provided in this Award or the terms of your Employment Agreement.
16.Limitations. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan grants to you any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the Company or Subsidiary’s right to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, subject to applicable law. Payment of Shares is not secured by a trust, insurance contract or other funding medium, and you do not have any interest in any fund or specific Company or Subsidiary asset by reason of this Award. You have no rights as a stockholder of the Company pursuant to this Award until Shares are actually delivered to you.

These Terms and Conditions supersede any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award. These Terms and Conditions may not be modified, altered or changed except by the Committee (or its delegate) in writing and pursuant to the terms of the Plan; provided, however, that the Company has the unilateral authority to amend these Terms and Conditions without your consent to the extent necessary, as determined in its good faith and reasonable discretion, to comply with applicable securities registration or exchange control requirements and to impose additional requirements on this Award or Shares subject to this Award if the Company in good faith reasonably deems it necessary to comply with applicable law and using all reasonable efforts to endeavor not to diminish the intended economic benefits of this Award.
18.Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which will remain in full force and effect. Moreover, if any provision is found to be excessively broad in duration, scope or covered activity, the provision will be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.
19.Waiver. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that a waiver by the Company of any breach by you of a provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not operate or be construed as a waiver by the Company of any other provision of these Terms and Conditions or of a subsequent breach.



20.Notices. By accepting this Award, you agree to receive documents, notices and any other communications relating to your participation in the Plan in writing by regular mail to your last known address on file with your employer, the Company or Subsidiary or any outside Plan administrator, or by electronic means, including by e-mail, through an online system maintained by any outside Plan administrator or by a posting on the Company’s intranet website or on an online system or website maintained by any outside Plan administrator.
21.Code Section 409A Compliance. It is intended that these Terms and Conditions comply with Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, these Terms and Conditions will be interpreted and administered to be in compliance with Section 409A. To the extent that the Company determines that you would be subject to the additional taxes or penalties imposed on certain nonqualified deferred compensation plans pursuant to Section 409A as a result of any provision of this Agreement, such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to avoid application of such additional taxes or penalties. The nature of any such amendment shall be determined by the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to these Terms and Conditions during the six-month period immediately following your Termination of Employment will instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary of your Termination of Employment (or your death, if earlier). Each installment of Restricted Stock Units that vests under these Terms and Conditions (if there is more than one installment) will be considered one of a series of separate payments for purposes of Section 409A.
22.Governing Law. This Award and these Terms and Conditions shall be construed, interpreted and the rights of the parties determined in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
23.Acceptance. In order to receive this Award, you must electronically acknowledge and accept on the Company’s designated third party equity administrator’s website the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and these Terms and Conditions.

The Company will hold the Restricted Units in a bookkeeping account on your behalf until such units become payable or are forfeited or cancelled.
2.Amount and Form of Payment. Each Restricted Unit represents one (1) Ordinary Share and vested Restricted Units will be paid solely in Shares, subject to Section 10. Any Share issued pursuant to a Restricted Unit shall be paid up to its par value on issuance by a subsidiary of the Company or as otherwise determined by the Company.
3.Dividends. Each unvested Restricted Unit will be credited with a Dividend Equivalent Unit (“DEU”) for any cash or stock dividends distributed by the Company on an Ordinary Share. DEUs will be calculated at the same dividend rate paid to other holders of Ordinary Shares and will be adjusted and vest in accordance with the adjustment and vesting provisions applicable to the underlying Restricted Units and shall be paid as of the same date payment for the Restricted Units occurs.
4.Vesting. The Restricted Units shall vest in three equal installments on each of the first three (3) anniversaries of February 25, 2026 (the “Vesting Commencement Date” and each such anniversary, a “Vesting Date”), subject to your continued service through the applicable Vesting Date. To the extent not already vested, the Restricted Units will become fully vested on a Change in Control, subject to your continued service through a Change in Control. Payment of vested Restricted Units and associated DEUs shall be made no later than sixty (60) days following the applicable Vesting Date. If your employment terminates before full (100%) vesting, you will forfeit the unvested portion of Restricted Units and associated DEUs. However, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Plan, if your employment terminates due to death, Disability, or a termination by the Company without Cause or by you with Good Reason, Restricted Units and associated DEUs subject to this Award will become vested and shall be paid to the extent set forth in Section 5 or Section 6, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of Section 5.3(a) of the Plan apply to this Award.

If your employment terminates as a result of your death or a Disability, then you will become fully vested in all Restricted Units subject to this Award on the date of your death or Termination of Employment due to Disability. Payment of such vested amounts shall be made within 30 days of your Termination of Employment; provided that you shall not have the right, directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment.

Notwithstanding the vesting provisions described in Section 4, upon your Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause or by you with Good Reason, all of your Restricted Units will become vested as of the effective date of your Release (as defined in the Employment Agreement) provided



such Release becomes irrevocable within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Employment, provided further, however that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the terms of Section 7.02(f) of the Employment Agreement shall apply to the portion of your Restricted Units that do not constitute the Founders Grant. Payment of such vested amounts shall be made within sixty (60) days of your Termination of Employment; provided that you shall not have the right, directly or indirectly, to choose the taxable year of payment.
7.Withholdings. Prior to the issuance or delivery of any Shares subject to this Award, the Company may withhold a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value as of such date equal to the amount necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements (e.g., income tax, social insurance, payroll tax and payment on account), as determined in good faith by the Company, provided, however, that prior to withholding Shares, the Company shall give you a reasonable, advance opportunity to elect to satisfy such withholding obligations via making a cash payment to the Company in lieu of having Shares withheld or via such other mechanism as may be agreed by the Company. If, at any time after the Grant Date, you become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Company may be required to withhold or account for applicable tax requirements in the various jurisdictions. Furthermore, if the Shares subject to this Award vest under circumstances where they have not otherwise been fully paid-up in accordance with the requirements of Irish law, the Company or any Subsidiary may require you to pay the par value of each Share which vests hereunder at the time of such vesting. If the Company or any Subsidiary cannot withhold or account for all taxes associated with this Award, or obtain payment of the par value of each Share that vests hereunder, by application of the means described herein, then, by accepting this Award, you agree that you will pay to the Company or any Subsidiary all amounts necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements or the requirement that Shares be issued on a fully paid-up basis and acknowledge that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares subject to this Award or delay such issuance or delivery of the proceeds from the sale of such Shares, if you do not comply with such obligations.

The Company, in its sole discretion, voluntarily established the Plan and may amend or terminate it at any time pursuant to the terms of the Plan. You understand that the grant of restricted units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of any restricted units, or benefits in lieu of restricted units, even if restricted units have been granted repeatedly in the past and that all decisions with respect to future grants will be in the Company’s sole discretion. By accepting this Award, you also acknowledge that this Award and any gains received hereunder are extraordinary items and are not considered part of your salary or compensation for purposes of any pension or retirement benefits or for purposes of calculating any termination, severance, redundancy, resignation, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, life or accident insurance benefits or similar payments.

16.Limitations. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan grants to you any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the Company or Subsidiary’s right to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, subject to applicable law. Payment of Shares is not secured by a trust, insurance contract or other funding medium, and you do not have any interest in any fund or specific Company or Subsidiary asset by reason of this Award. You have no rights as a stockholder of the Company pursuant to this Award until Shares are actually delivered to you.

Company regarding this Award. These Terms and Conditions supersede any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award, other than with respect to the terms of your Employment Agreement that specifically reference the treatment of equity awards. These Terms and Conditions may not be modified, altered or changed except by the Committee (or its delegate) in writing with your written consent and pursuant to the terms of the Plan; provided, however, that the Company has the unilateral authority to amend these Terms and Conditions without your consent to the extent necessary, as determined in its good faith and reasonable discretion, to comply with applicable securities registration or exchange control requirements and to impose additional requirements on this Award or Shares subject to this Award if the Company in good faith reasonably deems it necessary to comply with applicable law and using all reasonable efforts to endeavor not to diminish the intended economic benefits of this Award.
18.Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which will remain in full force and effect.

Furthermore, if the Shares subject to this Award vest under circumstances where they have not otherwise been fully paid-up in accordance with the requirements of Irish law, the Company or any Subsidiary may require you to pay the par value of each Share which vests hereunder at the time of such vesting. If the Company or any Subsidiary cannot withhold or account for all taxes associated with this Award, or obtain payment of the par value of each Share that vests hereunder, by application of the means described herein, then, by accepting this Award, you agree that you will pay to the Company or any Subsidiary all amounts necessary to satisfy applicable tax requirements or the requirement that Shares be issued on a fully paid-up basis and acknowledge that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver Shares subject to this Award or delay such issuance or delivery of the proceeds from the sale of such Shares, if you do not comply with such obligations.
9.Transfer of Award. You may not transfer this Award or any interest in Performance Restricted Units except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to your spouse, or your lineal descendants (whether by blood or adoption) or any trust, family partnership or family limited liability company, the sole beneficiaries, partners or members of which are you, your spouse, or your lineal descendants (whether by blood or adoption) (each, a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that, following any such transfer, the Permitted Transferee shall be bound by all of these Terms and Conditions and the Plan, and any such terms and conditions that relate to termination of employment or service shall apply to such Permitted Transferee upon your termination of employment or service. Any other attempt to transfer this Award or any interest in Performance Restricted Units is null and void.
10. Adjustments and Buybacks.
(i) In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, reorganization, combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or



other securities, the issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities, or other similar corporate transaction or event, or other returns of value to shareholders not heretofore described, the Committee shall, in its good faith and reasonable discretion, equitably adjust the number and kind of Shares covered by this Award and other relevant provisions to the extent necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be provided by this Award. Any such determinations and adjustments made by the Committee will be binding on all persons.
(ii) In the event the Company initiates any tender offer or broad based repurchase of Shares from shareholders of the Company, then you shall be given a reasonable advance opportunity to elect to receive the consideration received per Share by shareholders in any such tender offer or repurchase (the “Buy-Back Consideration”) for some or all of your Performance Restricted Units which Buy-Back Consideration shall be delivered to you at the same time as Shares would otherwise have been issued to you pursuant to the Performance Restricted Units. The Company shall provide opportunities for the funds to be held in a Rabbi Trust or other similar arrangement in order for you to be able to notionally invest the Buy-Back Consideration in investment alternatives selected by the Company in its sole discretion.
11. Restrictions on Payment of Shares. Payment of Shares for Performance Restricted Units is subject to the conditions that, to the extent required at the time of delivery of such Shares:
(i)The Shares covered by this Award will be duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, on a nationally recognized stock exchange; and
(ii)A Registration Statement under the United States Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the Shares will be effective or an exemption from registration will apply.
If there is any registration, qualification, exchange control or other legal requirement imposed upon this Award or the Shares subject to this Award by applicable securities or exchange control laws (including rulings or regulations issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency with jurisdiction over the issuance of this Award or the Shares subject to this Award), the Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares subject to this Award before the Company, in its sole good faith discretion, has determined that either (a) it has satisfied any such requirements or has received the requisite approval from the appropriate governmental agency; or (b) an exemption from such registration or exchange control requirement applies. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you understand that the Company is under no obligation to register this Award or the Shares subject to this Award with any governmental agency or to seek approval from any governmental agency for the issuance or sale of Shares subject to this Award.
12. Disposition of Securities. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you have read and understand the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and are aware of and understand your obligations under United States federal securities laws with respect to trading in the Company’s securities.
13. Governing Terms. The vesting of Performance Restricted Units, the disposition of any Shares received on or after such vesting, and the treatment of any gains received upon such disposition are subject to the terms of the Plan and any rules that the Committee, in its good faith and reasonable discretion, prescribes. The Plan document, as amended from time to time, is incorporated into these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions shall constitute the Award Certificate referred to in the Plan. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms used in these Terms and Conditions are defined in the Plan. If there is any conflict between the terms of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions, these Terms and Conditions shall govern. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge receipt of the Plan, as in effect on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan, any determination with respect to the character of your Termination of Employment or the breach of any restrictive covenant by you shall be subject to de novo review.
14. Executive Financial Recoupment Program. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award to the contrary, any Shares issued hereunder, and/or any amount received with respect to any sale of any such Shares, shall be subject to potential cancellation, recovery, repayment, or other action in accordance with the terms of the Company’s policy with respect to its Executive Financial Recoupment Program, as it may be amended from time to time, subject to the terms of Section 13.13 of the Employment Agreement (the “Recoupment Policy”), Section 4.1 of the Plan, and applicable securities laws. By accepting this Award, you agree and consent to the Company’s application, implementation, and enforcement of (a) the Recoupment Policy, (b) Section 4.1 of the Plan,



and (c) any provision of applicable law relating to the cancellation, recovery, or repayment of compensation under this Award, and expressly agree that the Company may take such actions as are necessary or desirable to effectuate the Recoupment Policy, Section 4.1 of the Plan, any similar policy, or applicable law without further consent or action being required of you. To the extent the terms of this Award and the Recoupment Policy (or similar policy or applicable securities laws) conflict, the terms of such policy shall govern.
15. Personal Data. To comply with applicable law and to administer this Award appropriately, the Company and its agents may accumulate, hold and process your personal data and/or “sensitive personal data” within the meaning of applicable law (“Personal Data”). Personal Data includes, but is not limited to, the information provided to you as part of the grant package and any changes thereto (e.g., details of Performance Restricted Units, including amounts awarded, unvested or vested), other appropriate personal and financial data about you (e.g., name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, nationality, job title, reason for termination of employment, and social security, social insurance or other identification number), and information about your participation in the Plan and Shares obtained under the Plan from time to time. By accepting this Award, you give your explicit consent to your employer’s and the Company’s accumulating, transferring, and processing Personal Data as necessary or appropriate for Plan administration. Your Personal Data will be retained only as long as is necessary to administer your participation in the Plan. If applicable, by accepting this Award, you also give your explicit consent to the Company’s transfer of Personal Data outside the country in which you work or reside and to the United States of America where the same level of data protection laws may not apply as in your home country. The legal persons for whom your Personal Data are intended (and by whom your Personal Data may be transferred, processed or exchanged) include the Company, its Subsidiaries (or former Subsidiaries as are deemed necessary), the outside Plan administrator, their respective agents, and any other person that the Company retains or utilizes for compensation planning or Plan administration purposes. You have the right to request a list of the names and addresses of any potential recipients of your Personal Data and to review and correct your Personal Data by contacting your local Human Resources Representative. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge your understanding that the transfer of the information outlined here is important to Plan administration and that failure to consent to the transmission of such information may limit or prohibit your participation in the Plan. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that you are providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis and that, if you do not consent or if you later seek to revoke your consent, it will adversely impact the ability of the Company to administer your Awards but it will not adversely impact your employment status or service with your employer.
16. No Contract of Employment or Promise of Future Grants. By accepting this Award, you agree that you are bound by the terms of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions and acknowledge that this Award is granted in the Company’s sole discretion and is not considered part of any employment contract or your ordinary or expected salary or other compensation for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary. You further agree that this Award, and your Plan participation, do not form, and will not be interpreted as forming, an employment contract or guarantee of employment with the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company, in its sole discretion, voluntarily established the Plan and may amend or terminate it at any time pursuant to the terms of the Plan. You understand that the grant of performance restricted units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of any performance restricted units, or benefits in lieu of performance restricted units, even if performance restricted units have been granted repeatedly in the past and that all decisions with respect to future grants will be in the Company’s sole discretion. By accepting this Award, you also acknowledge that this Award and any gains received hereunder are extraordinary items and are not considered part of your salary or compensation for purposes of any pension or retirement benefits or for purposes of calculating any termination, severance, redundancy, resignation, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, life or accident insurance benefits or similar payments. Neither this Award, nor any gains received hereunder, is intended to replace any pension rights or compensation. If the Company or Subsidiary terminates your employment for any reason, you agree that you will not be entitled to damages or compensation for breach of contract, dismissal (in any circumstances, including unfair dismissal) or compensation for loss of office or otherwise to any sum, Shares, Performance Restricted Units or other benefits to compensate you for the loss or diminution in value of any actual or prospective rights, benefits or expectation under or in relation to the Plan, except as otherwise provided in this Award or the terms of your Employment Agreement.
17. Limitations. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan grants to you any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the Company or



Subsidiary’s right to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, subject to applicable law. Payment of Shares is not secured by a trust, insurance contract or other funding medium, and you do not have any interest in any fund or specific Company or Subsidiary asset by reason of this Award. You have no rights as a stockholder of the Company pursuant to this Award until Shares are actually delivered to you.
18. Entire Agreement and Amendment. These Terms and Conditions, the Plan, the terms of the Employment Agreement that specifically reference the treatment of equity awards, and other Company policies specifically referred to herein constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Award. These Terms and Conditions supersede any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award, other than with respect to the terms of the Employment Agreement that specifically reference the treatment of equity awards. These Terms and Conditions may not be modified, altered or changed except by the Committee (or its delegate) in writing with your written consent and pursuant to the terms of the Plan; provided, however, that the Company has the unilateral authority to amend these Terms and Conditions without your consent to the extent necessary, as determined in its good faith and reasonable discretion, to comply with applicable securities registration or exchange control requirements and to impose additional requirements on this Award or Shares subject to this Award if the Company in good faith reasonably deems it necessary to comply with applicable law and using all reasonable efforts to endeavor not to diminish the intended economic benefits of this Award.
19. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which will remain in full force and effect. Moreover, if any provision is found to be excessively broad in duration, scope or covered activity, the provision will be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.
20. Waiver. By accepting this Award, you acknowledge that a waiver by the Company of any breach by you of a provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not operate or be construed as a waiver by the Company of any other provision of these Terms and Conditions or of a subsequent breach.
21. Notices. By accepting this Award, you agree to receive documents, notices and any other communications relating to your participation in the Plan in writing by regular mail to your last known address on file with your employer, the Company or Subsidiary or any outside Plan administrator, or by electronic means, including by e-mail, through an online system maintained by any outside Plan administrator, or by a posting on the Company’s intranet website or on an online system or website maintained by any outside Plan administrator.
22. Code Section 409A Compliance. It is intended that these Terms and Conditions comply with Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, these Terms and Conditions will be interpreted and administered to be in compliance with Section 409A. To the extent that the Company determines that you would be subject to the additional taxes or penalties imposed on certain nonqualified deferred compensation plans pursuant to Section 409A as a result of any provision of these Terms and Conditions, such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to avoid application of such additional taxes or penalties. The nature of any such amendment shall be determined by the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms and Conditions or the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to these Terms and Conditions during the six-month period immediately following your Termination of Employment will instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary of your Termination of Employment (or your death, if earlier).
23. Governing Law. This Award and these Terms and Conditions shall be construed, interpreted and the rights of the parties determined in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
24. Put Right. Provided the Company’s ordinary shares are not listed on a national securities exchange (within the meaning of the U.S. securities laws), during the 90-day period following each of (a) the 90th day following the third (3rd) anniversary of the Grant Date and (b) the 90th day following the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Grant Date (each, a “Put Period”), you will have the option to require the Company (via written notice to the Company (the “Put Notice”)) to repurchase either 50% or 100% of the Shares you receive in settlement of the



Performance Restricted Units under this Award (the “Put Shares”), provided that you have not been terminated for Cause; and provided further that your heirs and representatives (if you are incapacitated following Disability) shall have the right to exercise the Put Right in the event of your death or Disability) and your compliance with any applicable restrictive covenants in all material respects through any such purchase date (the “Put Right”). Following your exercise of the Put Right, the Company shall be required to repurchase the Put Shares within 90 days following the Put Notice at a price equal to the Fair Market Value on the date of repurchase; provided that if the Company determines reasonably and in good faith that a Repurchase Prohibition exists, then the Company shall have the right, upon written notice to you, at the Company’s election, to (a) delay the consummation of the repurchase until up to forty‑five (45) days following the date that the Company determines in good faith that such Repurchase Prohibition ceases to apply, (b) consummate the repurchase but delay the payment of the purchase price in respect of the Put Shares until the expiration of such forty‑five (45) day period or (c) consummate the repurchase but make payment of the purchase price in respect of the Put Shares subject thereto in the form of a promissory note, bearing interest at the prime rate and payable upon the earliest to occur of the Repurchase Prohibition ceasing to apply, the third anniversary of the date of the Put Notice, a Change in Control or an initial public offering of the Company, and containing such other customary terms and conditions as may be determined reasonably and in good faith, by the Company at the direction of the Board and subject to your reasonable agreement. On the date of the Put Notice and no more than fifteen (15) days prior to the purchase date, you shall (i) make the customary representations and warranties in connection with the redemption (if applicable) and sale of the Put Shares, including that you (x) have good and marketable title to the applicable Put Shares and (y) have due power and authority to execute and deliver any documents to sell, transfer, assign and deliver the Put Shares and (ii) transfer the Put Shares subject to the Put Notice to the Company, free and clear of all liens, other than liens in favor of the Company or its affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Put Right shall not limit your ability to participate in any other Company-sponsored share repurchase programs, subject to the terms and conditions of any such share repurchase programs.
25. Acceptance. In order to receive this Award, you must electronically acknowledge and accept on the Company’s designated third party equity administrator’s website the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and these Terms and Conditions. By accepting this Award, you agree to the following: (i) you have carefully read, fully understand and agree to all of the terms and conditions contained in the Plan and these Terms and Conditions; and (ii) you understand and agree the Plan and these Terms and Conditions constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Award, and any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award are replaced and superseded.
