     This Executive Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is dated as of February 24, 2010, by and

RECITALS:




     WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ Executive as Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer as of the Effective Date (defined below), but may be interested in utilizing
Executive in other capacities, in order to avail itself of Executive’s skills and abilities in
light of the Company’s business needs;



     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual obligations of the parties
contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the Company and Executive agree as follows:



     1. Employment of Executive; Best Efforts. The Company agrees to employ Executive,

anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Third Anniversary”).



     3. Performance of Duties; Best Efforts. During the term of this Agreement, Executive
shall devote his full working time and attention to the business and affairs of Mylan and the
performance of his duties hereunder, serve Mylan faithfully and to the best of his ability, and use

connection with his employment in accordance with the reasonable direction of the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, commensurate with the activities of his position. During the term of this
Agreement, Executive agrees to promptly and fully disclose to Mylan, and not to divert to
Executive’s own use or benefit or the use or benefit of others, any business opportunities
involving any existing or prospective line of business, supplier, product or activity of Mylan or
any business opportunities which otherwise should rightfully be afforded to Mylan.



     4. Executive’s Compensation. Executive’s compensation shall include the following:



     (a) Annual Base Salary. The Executive’s annual base salary (the “Annual Base
Salary”) shall be Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000), payable in accordance with the Company’s
normal payroll practices for its executive officers. The Annual Base



 









 




Salary may be increased from time to time at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors of the Company, any other committee authorized by the Board of Directors or
any officer having authority over executive compensation.




     (b) Annual Bonus. Executive shall have an annual discretionary bonus opportunity of
one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s then-current Annual Base Salary, to be paid upon
satisfaction of certain criteria established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors, or by any other committee or officer having authority over executive compensation. Such
bonus shall be paid no later than March 15th of the year following the year in which the
annual award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.



     (c) Non-Qualified Stock Options. On the Effective Date, Executive shall receive
non-qualified stock options to purchase 80,000 shares of Mylan common stock under the 2003

applicable RSU award instrument.



     (e) Fringe Benefits and Expense Reimbursement. The Executive shall receive benefits
and perquisites of employment similar to those as have been customarily provided to the Company’s
other executive officers including but not limited to, health insurance coverage, short-term
disability benefits and twenty (20) vacation days, in each case in accordance with the plan
documents or policies that govern such benefits. The Company shall reimburse Executive for all
ordinary and necessary business expenses in accordance with established Company policy and
procedures.



     5. Confidentiality. Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the business
interests of the Company and its subsidiaries, parents and affiliates (collectively the “Mylan
Companies”) require a confidential relationship between the Company and Executive and the fullest
protection and confidential treatment of the financial data, customer information, supplier
information, market information, marketing and/or promotional techniques and methods, pricing
information, purchase information, sales policies, employee lists, policy and procedure
information, records, advertising information, computer records, trade secrets, know how, plans and
programs, sources of



2









 




supply, and other knowledge of the business of the Mylan Companies (all of which are
hereinafter jointly termed “Confidential Information”) which have or may in whole or in part be
conceived, learned or obtained by Executive in the course of Executive’s employment with the
Company. Accordingly, Executive agrees to keep secret and treat as confidential all Confidential
Information whether or not copyrightable or patentable, and agrees not to use or aid others in
learning of or using any Confidential Information except in the ordinary course of business and in
furtherance of the Company’s interests. During the term of this Agreement and at all times
thereafter, except insofar as is necessary disclosure consistent with the Company’s business
interests:




     (a) Executive will not, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information to
anyone outside the Mylan Companies;



     (b) Executive will not make copies of or otherwise disclose the contents of documents
containing or constituting Confidential Information;



     (c) As to documents which are delivered to Executive or which are made available to him as a
necessary part of the working relationships and duties of Executive within the business of the
Company, Executive will treat such documents confidentially and will treat such documents as
proprietary and confidential, not to be reproduced, disclosed or used without appropriate authority
of the Company;



     (d) Executive will not advise others that the information and/or know how included in
Confidential Information is known to or used by the Company; and



     (e) Executive will not in any manner disclose or use Confidential Information for Executive’s
own account and will not aid, assist or abet others in the use of Confidential Information for
their account or benefit, or for the account or benefit of any person or entity other than the
Company.


The obligations set forth in this paragraph are in addition to any other agreements the Executive
may have with the Company and any and all rights the Company may have under state or federal
statutes or common law.




     6. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. Executive agrees that for a period ending
one (1) year after termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason:



     (a) Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether for himself or for any other person,
company, corporation or other entity be or become associated in any way (including but not limited
to the association set forth in i-vii of this subsection) with any business or organization which
is directly or indirectly engaged in the research, development, manufacture, production, marketing,
promotion or sale of any product the same as or similar to those of the Mylan Companies, or which
competes or intends to compete in any line of business with the Mylan Companies within North
America. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may during the period in which this paragraph



3









 




is in effect own stock or other interests in corporations or other entities that engage in
businesses the same or substantially similar to those engaged in by the Mylan Companies, provided
that Executive does not, directly or indirectly (including without limitation as the result of
ownership or control of another corporation or other entity), individually or as part of a group
(as that term is defined in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) (i) control or have the ability to control the
corporation or other entity, (ii) provide to the corporation or entity, whether as an Executive,
consultant or otherwise, advice or consultation, (iii) provide to the corporation or entity any
confidential or proprietary information regarding the Mylan Companies or its businesses or
regarding the conduct of businesses similar to those of the Mylan Companies, (iv) hold or have the
right by contract or arrangement or understanding with other parties to hold a position on the
board of directors or other governing body of the corporation or entity or have the right by
contract or arrangement or understanding with other parties to elect one or more persons to any
such position, (v) hold a position as an officer of the corporation or entity, (vi) have the
purpose to change or influence the control of the corporation or entity (other than solely by the
voting of his shares or ownership interest) or (vii) have a business or other relationship, by
contract or otherwise, with the corporation or entity other than as a passive investor in it;
provided, however, that Executive may vote his shares or ownership interest in such manner as he
chooses provided that such action does not otherwise violate the prohibitions set forth in this
sentence.




     (b) Executive will not, either directly or indirectly, either for himself or for any other
person, partnership, firm, company, corporation or other entity, contact, solicit, divert, or take
away any of the customers or suppliers of the Mylan Companies.



     (c) Executive will not solicit, entice or otherwise induce any employee of the Mylan
Companies to leave the employ of the Mylan Companies for any reason whatsoever; nor will Executive
directly or indirectly aid, assist or abet any other person or entity in soliciting or hiring any
employee of the Mylan Companies, nor will Executive otherwise interfere with any contractual or
other business relationships between the Mylan Companies and its employees.



     7. Severability. Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that any section
or sub-section of this Agreement is unenforceable because one or all of them are vague or overly
broad, the parties agree that this Agreement may and shall be enforced to the maximum extent
permitted by law. It is the intent of the parties that each section and sub-section of this
Agreement be a separate and distinct promise and that unenforceability of any one subsection shall
have no effect on the enforceability of another.



     8. Injunctive Relief. The parties agree that in the event of Executive’s violation
of Sections 5 and/or 6 of this Agreement or any subsection thereunder, that the damage to the
Company will be irreparable and that money damages will be difficult or impossible to ascertain.
Accordingly, in addition to whatever other remedies the Company may have at law or in equity,
Executive recognizes and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to



4









 




a temporary restraining order and a temporary and permanent injunction enjoining and
prohibiting any acts not permissible pursuant to this Agreement. Executive agrees that should
either party seek to enforce or determine its rights because of an act of Executive which the
Company believes to be in contravention of Sections 5 and/or 6 of this Agreement or any subsection
thereunder, the duration of the restrictions imposed thereby shall be extended for a time period
equal to the period necessary to obtain judicial enforcement of the Company’s rights.




     9. Termination of Employment.



     (a) Resignation. (i) Executive may resign from employment at any time upon 90 days
written notice to the Chief Executive Officer. During the 90-day notice period Executive will
continue to perform duties and abide by all other terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Additionally, Executive will use his best efforts to effect a smooth and effective transition to
whoever will replace Executive. Mylan reserves the right to accelerate the effective date of
Executive’s resignation, provided that Executive shall receive Executive’s salary and benefits
through the 90-day period. (ii) If Executive resigns without “Good Reason” (as defined below),
Mylan shall have no liability to Executive under this Agreement other than that the Company shall
pay Executive’s wages and benefits through the effective date of Executive’s resignation.
Executive, however, will continue to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement that survive
termination of employment. For purposes of this Agreement “Good Reason” shall mean: (a) a
reduction of Executive’s annual base salary below the Annual Base Salary stipulated in this
Agreement, unless other executive officers of the Company are required to accept a similar
reduction; or (b) the assignment of duties to the Executive which are inconsistent with those of an
executive officer. (iii) If Executive resigns with Good Reason and complies in all respects with
his obligations hereunder, Mylan will pay Executive a lump sum amount equal to his then-current
annual Base Salary, plus an amount equal to the bonus that Executive would have been entitled to
receive for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs, pro rated based on the portion of such
year during which Executive was employed by the Company. Subject to Section 9(h), such payment
will be made within 30 days following Executive’s termination of employment. Mylan shall also pay
the cost of continuing Executive’s health insurance benefits for the 12 months following his
separation from the Company; provided, however, that in the case of health insurance continuation,
Mylan’s obligation to provide health insurance benefits shall end at such time as Executive obtains
health insurance benefits through another employer or otherwise in connection with rendering
services for a third party. Executive will continue to be bound by all provisions of this
Agreement that survive termination of employment.



     (b) Termination for Cause. If Mylan determines to terminate Executive’s employment
during the term of this Agreement for Cause, as defined herein, the Company shall have no liability
to Executive other than to pay Executive’s wages and benefits through the effective date of
Executive’s termination. Executive, however, will continue to be bound by all provisions of this
Agreement that survive termination of employment. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall
mean: (i) Executive’s



5









 




willful and gross misconduct with respect to the business or affairs of any of the Mylan
Companies; (ii) Executive’s insubordination, gross neglect of duties, dishonesty or deliberate
disregard of any material rule or policy of any of the Mylan Companies; (iii) Executive’s
conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude; or (iv) Executive’s conviction of any felony.




     (c) Termination Without Cause. If Mylan discharges Executive without Cause, Mylan
will pay a lump sum amount equal to his then-current annual Base Salary, plus a pro rata bonus
equal to the bonus that Executive would have been entitled to receive for the fiscal year in which
the termination occurs. Subject to Section 9(h), such payment will be made within 30 days
following Executive’s termination of employment. Mylan shall also pay the cost of continuing
Executive’s health insurance benefits (including, as applicable, those benefits that cover eligible
members of his immediate family) for the 12 months following such termination without Cause;
provided, however, that in the case of health insurance continuation, Mylan’s obligation to provide
health insurance benefits shall end at such time as Executive obtains health insurance benefits
through another employer or otherwise in connection with rendering services for a third party.
Executive will continue to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement that survive termination of
employment.



     (d) Death or Incapacity. The employment of Executive shall automatically terminate
upon Executive’s death or upon the occurrence of a disability that renders Executive incapable of
performing the essential functions of his position within the meaning of the Americans With
Disabilities Act of 1990. For all purposes of this Agreement, any such termination shall be
treated in the same manner as a termination without Cause, as described in Section 9(c) above, and
Executive, or Executive’s estate, as applicable, shall receive all consideration, compensation and
benefits that would be due and payable to Executive for a termination without Cause, provided,
however, that such consideration, compensation and benefits shall be reduced by any death or
disability benefits (as applicable) that the Executive or his estate or beneficiaries (as
applicable) are entitled to pursuant to plans or arrangements of the Company.



     (e) Extension or Renewal. This Agreement may be extended or renewed upon mutual
written agreement of the parties. Unless this Agreement has sooner been terminated for any of the
reasons stated in Section 9(a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Agreement, and further provided that
Executive would otherwise be physically and mentally able to perform the essential functions of
Executive’s position at such time, with or without reasonable accommodation, the parties shall
endeavor to commence renewal or extension discussions 30 days prior to the Third Anniversary.



     If by the Third Anniversary the Company has not made an offer to Executive for continued
employment with the Company beyond such date, Executive’s employment shall terminate as of such
date, and the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum amount equal to his then-current annual Base
Salary, which amount shall be paid within 30 days following Executive’s separation from the Company
(subject to Section 9(h)) below), and Executive’s health insurance benefits shall be continued for
12 months at the Company’s



6









 




cost; provided, however, that in the case of health insurance continuation, the Company’s
obligation to provide health insurance benefits shall end at such time as Executive, at his option,
voluntarily obtains heath insurance benefits.




     (f) Return of Company Property. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment for
any reason, Executive shall immediately return to Mylan all records, memoranda, files, notes,
papers, correspondence, reports, documents, books, diskettes, hard drives, electronic files, and
all copies or abstracts thereof that Executive has concerning any or all of the Mylan Companies’
business. Executive shall also immediately return all keys, identification cards or badges and
other company property.



     (g) No Duty to Mitigate. There shall be no requirement on the part of Executive to
seek other employment or otherwise mitigate damages in order to be entitled to the full amount of
any payments and benefits to which Executive is otherwise entitled under any contract and the
amount of such payments and benefits shall not be reduced by any compensation or benefits received
by Executive from other employment.



     (h) Conditions to Payment and Acceleration; Section 409A of the Code. The intent of
the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum
extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance
therewith. 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, Executive
shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of this
Agreement and no payments shall be due to Executive under Section 9 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. For purposes of this Agreement, each amount to be paid or
benefit to be provided shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section
409A of the Code, and any payments described in Section 9 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. To the extent required in order to avoid
accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, 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 termination of employment shall
instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following Executive’s
termination of employment (or death, if earlier). To the extent required to avoid an accelerated
or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, 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 year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided
in any subsequent year; provided, however, that with respect to any reimbursements
for any taxes which Executive would become entitled to under the terms of the Agreement, the
payment of such



7









 




reimbursements shall be made by the Company no later than the end of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which Executive remits the related taxes.




     10. Indemnification. The Company shall maintain D&O liability coverage pursuant to
which Executive shall be a covered insured. Executive shall receive indemnification in accordance
with the Company’s Bylaws in effect as of the date of this Agreement. Such indemnification shall
be contractual in nature and shall remain in effect notwithstanding any future change to the
Company’s Bylaws.



     To the extent not otherwise limited by the Company’s Bylaws in effect as of the date of this
Agreement, in the event that Executive is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is
involved in any action, suit or proceeding, (including those brought by or in the right of the
Company) whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (“proceeding”), by reason of the
fact that he is or was an officer, employee or agent of or is or was serving the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company or another
corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with
respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an
official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving
as a director, officer, employee or agent, Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Company to the fullest extent authorized by law against all expenses, liabilities and losses
(including attorneys fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to
be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by Executive in connection therewith. Such
right shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Company expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however,
that the payment of such expenses incurred by Executive in his capacity as a director or officer
(and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by Executive while a director or
officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the
final disposition of such proceeding will be made only upon delivery to the Company of an
undertaking, by or on behalf of Executive, to repay all amounts to Company so advanced if it should
be determined ultimately that Executive is not entitled to be indemnified under this section or
otherwise.



     Promptly after receipt by Executive of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding for which Executive may be entitled to be indemnified, Executive shall notify the
Company in writing of the commencement thereof (but the failure to notify the Company shall not
relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 10 unless and to the extent that
it has been prejudiced in a material respect by such failure or from the forfeiture of substantial
rights and defenses). If any such action, suit or proceeding is brought against Executive and he
notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company will be entitled to participate
therein, and, to the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to Executive promptly after
receiving the aforesaid notice from Executive, to assume the defense thereof with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Executive, which may be the same counsel as counsel to the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall have the right to employ his own counsel in any such
case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of



8









 




Executive unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by
the Company, (ii) the Company shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to Executive
to take charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable time after notice of commencement
of the action or (iii) Executive shall have reasonably concluded, after consultation with counsel
to Executive, that a conflict of interest exists which makes representation by counsel chosen by
the Company not advisable (in which case the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense
of such action on behalf of Executive), in any of which events such fees and expenses of one
additional counsel shall be borne by the Company. Anything in this Section 9 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim or action effected
without its written consent.




     11. Other Agreements. The rights and obligations contained in this Agreement are in
addition to and not in place of any rights or obligations contained in any other agreements between
the Executive and the Company.



     12. Notices. All notices hereunder to the parties hereto shall be in writing sent by
certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and by fax, addressed to the respective
parties at the following addresses:



	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	If to the Company:
	 	Mylan Inc.
	 

	 	 	 	1500 Corporate Drive
	 

	 	 	 	Canonsburg, Pennsylvania 15317
	 

	 	 	 	Attention: Chief Executive Officer
	 
	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	If to Executive:
	 	at the most recent address on record at the Company.





Either party may, by written notice complying with the requirements of this section, specify
another or different person or address for the purpose of notification hereunder. All notices shall
be deemed to have been given and received on the day a fax is sent or, if mailed only, on the third
business day following such mailing.




     13. Withholding. All payments required to be made by the Company hereunder to
Executive or his dependents, beneficiaries, or estate will be subject to the withholding of such
amounts relating to tax and/or other payroll deductions as may be required by law.



     14. Modification and Waiver. This Agreement may not be changed or terminated rally,
nor shall any change, termination or attempted waiver of any of the provisions contained in this
Agreement be binding unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the same is sought to
be enforced, nor shall this section itself by waived verbally. This Agreement may be amended only
by a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the parties hereto.



9









 





     15. Construction of Agreement. This Agreement and all of its provisions were subject
to negotiation and shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against another
party regardless of which party drafted any particular provision.



     16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all of its provisions, rights and
obligations shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the Company’s
successors and assigns. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company to any person, firm or
corporation which shall become the owner of substantially all of the assets of the Company or which
shall succeed to the business of the Company; provided, however, that in the event of any such
assignment the Company shall obtain an instrument in writing from the assignee in which such
assignee assumes the obligations of the Company hereunder and shall deliver an executed copy
thereof to Executive. No right or interest to or in any payments or benefits hereunder shall be
assignable by Executive; provided, however, that this provision shall not preclude him from
designating one or more beneficiaries to receive any amount that may be payable after his death and
shall not preclude the legal representative of his estate from assigning any right hereunder to the
person or persons entitled thereto under his will or, in the case of intestacy, to the person or
persons entitled thereto under the laws of intestacy applicable to his estate. The term
“beneficiaries” as used in this Agreement shall mean a beneficiary or beneficiary or beneficiaries
so designated to receive any such amount, or if no beneficiary has been so designated, the legal
representative of the Executive’s estate. No right, benefit, or interest hereunder, shall be
subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, hypothecation,
or set-off in respect of any claim, debt, or obligation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or
similar process, or assignment by operation of law. Any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to
effect any action specified in the immediately preceding sentence shall, to the full extent
permitted by law, be null, void, and of no effect.



     17. Choice of Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced
according to, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be governed in all respects by,
the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, or the breach hereof, including a claim for injunctive relief, or any
claim which, in any way arises out of or relates to, Executive’s employment with the Company or the
termination of said employment, including but not limited to statutory claims for discrimination,
shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the then current rules of the American
Arbitration Association respecting employment disputes except that the parties shall be entitled to
engage in all forms of discovery permitted under the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure (as such
rules may be in effect from time to time). The hearing of any such dispute will be held in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and the losing party shall bear the costs, expenses and counsel fees of
such proceeding. Executive and Company agree for themselves, their, employees, successors and
assigns and their accountants, attorneys and experts that any arbitration hereunder will be held in
complete confidence and, without the other party’s prior written consent, will not be disclosed, in
whole or in part, to any other person or entity except as may be required by law. The decision of
the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on all



10









 




parties. Executive and the Company expressly consent to the jurisdiction of any such
arbitrator over them.




     18. Non-Disparagement. During the term hereof and thereafter, Executive agrees to
refrain from any disparaging statements, including but not limited to statements that amount to
libel or slander, about any of the Mylan Companies and/or any of their respective employees,
officers, or directors.



     19. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for
convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect the interpretation of any of the terms or
conditions of this Agreement.



     20. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
