Executive Compensation Recovery Policy

 

In the event of a restatement of Hospira’s published financial results, the
Committee will review the facts and circumstance that led to the restatement. 
If the Committee determines that any bonus, equity-based award or other
compensation was made to a current or former executive officer based on the
original financial statements, the Committee may at its discretion, but in no
case later than 60 months of such restatement, adjust such compensation
negatively or positively.  The committee may seek to recover from such executive
officer the part of any bonus, equity-based award or other compensation that was
paid based upon the financial performance in the published financial statements
that was subsequently restated.

 

In exercising its discretion, the Committee shall consider and weigh all factors
that it deems appropriate and relevant, such as the degree to which the
restatement was material as measured by the injury suffered by Hospira and its
shareholders due to the restatement, the degree to which the restatement is due
to misconduct or malfeasance and the degree to which the executive officer was
involved in misconduct or malfeasance.  The decision of the Committee may be the
same for all executive officers or may vary among the executive officers, but in
any event shall be final and binding on all executive officers.

 

In the case of cash compensation, if the amount of the payment would have been
lower than the amount actually awarded had the financial results been properly
reported, the Committee may require repayment of all or any portion of a payment
that was calculated based upon the achievement of the financial results that
were subsequently restated.

 

In the case of equity-based compensation, if the amount realized by the
executive officer (i.e., from the exercise of stock options or the granting of
stock based upon the vesting of performance share units) would have been lower
had the financial results been properly reported, the Committee may require
payment of all or any portion of the gains realized by the executive officer
that resulted from the financial results that were subsequently restated.  For
stock options,  “gain realized” shall be the excess of the “fair market value”
of the shares on the date of exercise, as determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion,  over the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares
purchased.  For performance share units, “gain realized” shall be the “fair
market value” of the shares on the date they are deemed vested, as determined by
the Committee in its sole discretion, multiplied by the number of shares
actually distributed to the executive officer, reduced by any taxes paid in
countries other than the United States, to the extent that such taxes are not
otherwise eligible for refund from the taxing authorities.

 

In the event that the executive officer does not repay any sums required by the
Committee due to any restatement of the financial results, the Committee may
pursue such legal remedies as may be appropriate to recoup any such sums that
the individual fails to repay as required by the Committee under this Policy
regardless of whether the affected individual is still employed by Hospira.  In
addition to all other available remedies, the Committee may set off the amount
owed by any such executive officer against any amount or award that would
otherwise be granted by Hospira to the executive officer, reduce any future
compensation or benefit to such executive officer or any combination thereof.

 

For purposes of this Policy, the term “executive officer” means any individual:
designated by the Company as an “officer” for purposes of Section 16 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or elected a corporate officer of Hospira by
its Board of Directors, but not including assistant officers.  This Policy shall
apply to all published financial statements, including those published prior to
its adoption and shall apply to individuals who were executive officers during
the periods covered by the published financial statement regardless of whether
such individual is still employed by Hospira at such time as the published
financial statements are restated or at such time as the Committee seeks to
adjust any previously paid compensation under this Policy.
