              (iii)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any
unexercisable portion of any Class C Option held by a Holder will become
immediately exercisable in full, solely to the extent then vested pursuant to
Section 8(c)(i) hereof,  in the event that such Holder's employment or service
with the Company or any of its subsidiaries is terminated for any reason;

provided, however, that any such Option shall expire on the 90th day after
--------  -------
termination of the Holder's employment or service if unexercised.

          9.  Manner of Exercise.
              ------------------

          (a) Each Option shall further state the terms and conditions of the
Option (including the conditions to exercisability thereof) and the Option
Price.  An Option may be exercised, subject to this Section 9, for any or all
whole number of shares which have become purchasable under such Option.  To the
extent necessary upon the exercise of an Option, Endo Pharma shall round each
fractional share issuable upon such exercise up to the next whole number.

          (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan
(including the conditions to exercisability thereof), an Option may be exercised
by the Holder during normal business hours on any Business Day, by surrender of
the Option to Endo Pharma at its principal office, accompanied by a
subscription, in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the
order of Endo Pharma, in the amount obtained by multiplying (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock designated in such subscription (up to the amount of
shares which such Holder is entitled to receive at such time upon exercise of
the Option) by (y) the Option Price.

                                       9
<PAGE>

          (c) Each exercise of an Option shall be deemed to have been effected
immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which an
Option shall have been surrendered to Endo Pharma, and at such time the Person
or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be
deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record thereof.

          (d) Endo Pharma at its expense shall deliver to the relevant Holder
(or as such Holder may direct pursuant to the Option) a certificate or
certificates representing shares of the Common Stock so purchased as soon as
reasonably practicable, but in any event within five Business Days, after
receipt of such notice.  Each such certificate shall bear the legend required by
the Employee Stockholders Agreement to the effect that there are restrictions on
the transfer of shares of Common Stock.

          (e) In the event that such exercise is in part only, Endo Pharma shall
deliver a new Option of the same class and tenor, calling in the aggregate on
the face thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of
such shares which such Holder would be entitled to receive at such time upon
exercise of this Option, after giving effect to such recent exercise.

          (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, in no event
may any Option be exercised prior to the time at which the Option becomes
exercisable (as set forth in the Option) or after the expiration of such Option,
and each Option shall terminate upon the terms set forth in Sections 8 and 10
hereof.

          (g) If, at any time, the Committee shall determine, in its sole
discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of
Common Stock upon any securities exchange or under any applicable securities
laws, or the consent or approval of any governmental or self-regulatory agency
or body, is necessary or reasonably desirable as a condition of, or in
connection with, the issue or purchase of the shares of Common Stock under any
Option, such Option may not be exercised in whole or in part unless such
listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been
effected or obtained free of any conditions unacceptable to the Committee.

          10. Expiration of Options.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
              ---------------------
8 above, the Options will expire no later than December 31, 2012; provided,
                                                                  --------
however, that in the event that any shares of Common Stock have been sold to the
-------

                                       10
<PAGE>

public pursuant to an effective registration statement, other than a
registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms under the
Securities Act of 1933, the Options will expire no later than on August 26,
2007. Any outstanding unexercised Option, or portion thereof, shall be
forfeited, whether or not exercisable, upon the expiration of such Option.

          11.  Adjustment of Number of Shares of Common Stock Issuable Upon
               ------------------------------------------------------------
Exercise.  The number and kind of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the
--------
exercise of Options shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

          (a)  Stock Dividends; Stock Splits; Reverse Stock Splits.  In case the
               ---------------------------------------------------
Company shall (i) pay a dividend or make any other distribution with respect to
the common stock of the Company in shares of its capital stock, (ii) subdivide
the outstanding common stock of the Company, or (iii) combine the outstanding
common stock of the Company into a smaller number of shares, the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Options immediately prior
to the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of
such subdivision or combination shall be adjusted so that the Holder of the
Options shall thereafter be entitled to receive the kind and number of shares of
Common Stock or Other Securities of the Company that such Holder would have
owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events
described above, had such Options been exercised immediately prior to the
happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto. An adjustment
made pursuant to this Section 11 shall become effective immediately after the
effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such
event.

          (b)  No Adjustment for Dividends; No Adjustment of Option Price.
               ----------------------------------------------------------
Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11, no adjustment in respect of any
dividends declared and paid on common stock of the Company, or on any other
capital stock of the Company, shall be made during the term of an Option or upon
the exercise of an Option.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Plan, in the event of any adjustments to Options pursuant to this
Section 11, adjustments shall be made solely to the number and kind of
securities purchasable upon the exercise of Options and no adjustments shall be
made to the Option Price.

          (c)  Other Adjustments.  In the event that at any time, as a result
               -----------------
of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 11, the registered Holders shall
become entitled to receive any securities of the Company other than shares of
Common Stock, thereafter the number of such Other Securities so receivable upon
exercise of

                                       11
<PAGE>

the Options shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on
terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the
shares of Common Stock contained in this Section 11.

          (d)  Notice of Adjustment.  Whenever the number of shares of Common
               --------------------
Stock purchasable upon the exercise of an Option is adjusted, as herein
provided, the Company shall give notice to each Holder of such adjustment or
adjustments.

          12.  Purchase Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc.
               -----------------------------------------------

          (a)  In the event of any consolidation of the Company with or merger
of the Company with or into another corporation or in case of any sale, transfer
or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all the assets of the
Company, the Acquiring Person shall execute an agreement that each Holder shall
have the right thereafter (whether or not the Option is then exercisable by its
terms) upon payment of the Option Price in effect immediately prior to such
action to purchase upon exercise of the Option the kind and amount of
securities, cash or other assets which such Holder would have owned or have been
entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale,
transfer or lease had such Option been exercised immediately prior to such
action; provided, however, that no adjustment in respect of dividends, interest
        --------  -------
or other income on or from such shares or other securities and property shall be
made during the term of an Option or upon the exercise of an Option.  The
Company shall mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder, notice
of the execution of any such agreement (including a copy thereof).  Such
agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as
may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. The
provisions of this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive
consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases.  The Acquiring Person shall
mail to Holders a notice describing any supplemental Option Agreement.  In the
event that this Section 12 shall be applicable, the provisions of Section 11(a)
shall not be applicable.

          (b)  In the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the Company
to a third party, whether pursuant to a sale of capital stock of the Company,
merger, consolidation, sale of assets or similar transaction, the Company shall
have the right to compel the Holder of an Option to exercise such Option
(whether or not the Option is then exercisable by its terms) (a "Compelled
Exercise"). In the event that

                                       12
<PAGE>

the Company determines to exercise its right to a Compelled Exercise, it shall
mail to Holders written notice of such event.

          13.  Employee Stockholders Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything in the
               -------------------------------
Plan to the contrary, all shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of
Options shall be subject to all terms and conditions set forth in the Employee
Stockholders Agreement.  As a condition to the exercise of any Option, each
Holder shall be required to execute and deliver to Endo Pharma (i) an executed
copy of the Employee Stockholders Agreement, in the form in effect at the time
of such exercise, if such Holder had not previously done so and (ii) such
written representations and other documents as may be necessary or reasonably
desirable, in the opinion of the Committee, for purposes of compliance with
federal or state securities or other laws.  For purposes of the Employee
Stockholders Agreement, each Holder shall be deemed to be a "Employee
Stockholder."

          14.  Restrictions on Transfer.
               ------------------------

          (a)  Restrictive Legend.  Except as otherwise permitted by this
               ------------------
Section 14, each Option (including each Option issued upon the transfer of any
option) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially
the following form:

     "This Option and any shares acquired upon the exercise of this
     option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
     as amended, and may not be transferred, sold or otherwise
     disposed of except while a registration under such Act is in
     effect or pursuant to an exemption therefrom under such Act and
     in all cases in compliance with all applicable state securities
     laws, and in any event may not be transferred to any party other
     than a Permitted Transferee as defined in this Option."

          (b)  Restrictions on Transfer.  Each Holder, by acceptance of an
               ------------------------
Option, shall acknowledge and agree that such Option may not be sold, assigned,
transferred, exchanged, mortgaged, pledged or granted a security interest in, or
otherwise disposed of or encumbered by or to any party other than by or to a
Permitted Transferee.

          15.  Registration and Transfer of Options, etc.
               -----------------------------------------

                                       13
<PAGE>

          (a)  Option Register; Ownership of Options.  Endo Pharma will keep
               -------------------------------------
at its principal office a register in which Endo Pharma will provide for the
registration of Options and the registration of transfers of Options.  Endo
Pharma may treat the Person in whose name any Option is registered on such
register as the owner thereof for all other purposes, and Endo Pharma shall not
be affected by any notice to the contrary, except that, if and when any Option
is accompanied by an instrument of assignment in a form acceptable to Endo
Pharma, it may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer thereof as the
owner of such Option for all purposes.  Subject to Section 14(b) hereof, an
Option, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new Holder without a new
Option first having been issued.

          (b)  Transfer and Exchange of Options.  Upon surrender of any Option
               --------------------------------
for registration of transfer or for exchange to the Company at its principal
office, the Company at its expense will (subject to compliance with Section
14(b) hereof, if applicable) execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new
Option or Options of the same class and tenor, in the name of such Holder or as
such Holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
direct, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of
shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Option or Options
so surrendered.

          (c)  Replacement of Options.  Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
               ----------------------
satisfactory to Endo Pharma of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any
Option and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of any Option,
upon delivery of an indemnity bond in such reasonable amount as Endo Pharma may
determine (or, at the sole option of Endo Pharma, of an indemnity agreement
reasonably satisfactory to Endo Pharma), or, in the case of any such mutilation,
upon the surrender of such Option for cancellation to Endo Pharma at its
principal office, Endo Pharma at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu
thereof, a new Option of the same class and tenor.

          16.  Rights as Option Holders of Shares.  Neither the Holder of an
               ----------------------------------
Option nor any Permitted Transferees shall have any rights as a stockholder of
the Company (including, without limitation, any right to vote or to receive
dividends or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in respect of any
meeting of stockholders for the election of directors of the Company or any
other matter, or any right whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company (except
for those notices and other matters expressly set forth under the Plan or in the
Option)).  An Option does not impose any obligation on a Holder or any of its
Permitted Transferees to purchase any securities or impose any liabilities on a
Holder as a stockholder of the Company,

                                       14
<PAGE>

whether such obligation or liabilities are asserted by the Company or by
creditors of the Company.

          17.  Withholding.  Endo Pharma shall have the right to require a
               -----------
Holder or other person entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise of Options (or, if the Holder makes an election under Section 83(b) of
the Code, in connection with such grant) under the Plan to pay to Endo Pharma
the amount which Endo Pharma is or will be required to withhold with respect to
the issuance of such shares in order for Endo Pharma or the Company to pay taxes
or to claim an income tax deduction with respect to the issuance of such shares.
In lieu of a portion of such payment equal to the amount of the minimum
statutory tax withholding, Endo Pharma may retain, at the discretion of the
Committee, a sufficient number of such shares (valued at the Fair Market Value
thereof) to cover the amount equal to the minimum statutory tax withholding.  A
Holder, however, may elect to pay to Endo Pharma all or a portion of the total
amount Endo Pharma is required to withhold by tendering shares of Common Stock
with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount Endo Pharma is required to
withhold; provided, however, that such Holder must have owned such tendered
          --------  -------
shares of Common Stock continuously through the date of issuance (or lapse) for
a period of a least six months.  With respect to Class C Options, a Holder may
elect to pay to Endo Pharma all or a portion of the total amount Endo Pharma is
required to withhold by having shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum statutory amount Endo Pharma is required to withhold
withheld by Endo Pharma.  The Holder shall promptly notify Endo Pharma of any
election made pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code.

          18.  Liability.  Endo Pharma, and not the Company, the Board, the
               ---------
Committee, or any member thereof, shall be liable for any and all claims made
against Endo Pharma, the Company, the Board or the Committee in connection with
the Plan or any Option.

          19   Legal Requirements.
               ------------------

          (a)  Endo Pharma shall be responsible and shall pay for any transfer,
revenue or documentary stamps with respect to shares of Common Stock issued upon
the exercise of Options granted under the Plan (other than any transfer tax
applicable to a transfer to a Permitted Transferee which shall be payable by a
Holder).

                                       15
<PAGE>

          (b)  Endo Pharma shall not be required to issue a certificate or
certificates for shares upon the exercise of any Option if such issuance would
result in a violation of any federal or state securities or other laws.  Endo
Pharma agrees to use its reasonable efforts to clear the legal impediment as
soon as possible.

          20   Amendment and Termination of the Plan.  The Committee may at any
               -------------------------------------
time and from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole
or in part.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, suspension, or
termination shall affect adversely any of the rights of any Holder, unless such
amendment suspension or termination is approved by a majority of the members of
the Committee.

          21.  Nonqualified Stock Options.  Options granted hereby shall be
               --------------------------
treated as nonqualified stock options under the Code.

          22.  Effective Date.  The Plan shall take effect on January 1, 2003
               --------------
(the "Effective Date") in the event MorphiDex(R) Approval does not occur on or
prior to December 31, 2002.  If MorphiDex(R) Approval occurs on or prior to
December 31, 2002, the Plan shall be null and of no effect.

          23.  Interpretations.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in the
               ---------------
Plan, the following rules of interpretation apply to the Plan and each Option:
(i) the singular includes the plural and the plural includes the singular; (ii)
"include" and "including" are not limiting and "or" is not exclusive; (iii) a
reference to any agreement or other contract includes permitted supplements and
amendments; (iv) a reference to a law includes any amendment or modification to
such law and any rules or regulations issued thereunder; and (v) a reference to
any person, corporation or other entity includes its permitted successors and
assigns.

          24.  GOVERNING LAW.  THE PLAN AND ANY AND ALL OPTIONS AND OPTION AWARD
               -------------
AGREEMENTS SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THE RIGHTS OF
THE PARTIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT
REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS.
