performance of Executive’s responsibilities hereunder. 

  

	 	(c)	Executive shall be subject to and shall abide by each of the Company’s personnel policies applicable and communicated in writing to senior executives. 


 

	3.	Annual Compensation.

	 	(b)	Incentive Compensation. For each fiscal year of the Company ending during the Employment Term, beginning with the 2008 fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible to receive a
target annual cash bonus of 55% of the Base Salary (such target bonus, as may hereafter be increased, the “Target Bonus”) with the opportunity to receive a maximum annual cash bonus of 200% of the Base Salary, as recommended in good faith
by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and approved by the Committee in its sole discretion, if the Company and Executive achieve certain performance targets set by the Committee. Such annual cash bonus (“Incentive 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 the Company’s actual performance for such year relative to the performance goals applicable to Executive, shall be multiplied by a fraction
(A) the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year through 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
incentive awards are payable to other participants. 

 Further, upon Executive’s Disability (irrespective of any

Target Bonus; and 

  

	 	(iv)	the Company shall provide Executive with continued coverage under any health, medical, dental, vision or life insurance program or policy in which Executive was eligible to
participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination for two (2) years following such termination on terms no less favorable to Executive and Executive’s dependents (including with respect to payment for the costs thereof)
than those in effect immediately prior to such termination, which coverage shall become secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which Executive becomes eligible.


  

	 	(e)	Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason Following a Change of Control. If Executive’s employment by the Company shall be terminated by

costs thereof) than those in effect immediately prior to such termination, which coverage shall become 



  

 8 








	 	 
secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer. 


  

	 	(f)	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 Section 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. 

  

	 	(g)	Excise Tax Gross-up. Whether or not Executive becomes entitled to the severance payments, if any of the payments or benefits received or to be received by Executive
(including any payment or benefits received in connection with a Change of Control or Executive’s termination of employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (all such payments and
benefits, excluding the Gross-Up Payment, being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) will be subject to the Excise Tax, the Company shall pay to Executive an additional amount (the “Gross-Up Payment”) such that the
net amount retained by Executive, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the Total Payments and any federal, state and local income and employment taxes and Excise Tax upon the Gross-Up Payment, and after taking into account the phase out of itemized

	 	(iii)	There is consummated a merger or consolidation of the Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company with any other corporation or other entity, other than (A) a
merger or consolidation which results in (i) the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting
securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof), in combination with the ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, at least 60% of the
combined voting power of the securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and (ii) the individuals who comprise the Board immediately prior thereto
constituting immediately thereafter at least a majority of the board of directors of the Company, the entity surviving such merger or consolidation or, if the Company or the entity surviving such merger is then a subsidiary, the ultimate parent
thereof, or (B) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no Person is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company (not

	 	(iv)	 The stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or there is consummated an agreement for the sale or
disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (it being conclusively presumed that any sale or disposition is a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets if the consummation of

an Affiliate of the Company and any other Person), other than a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an entity (A) at least 60% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of

all or substantially all of the assets of the Company immediately following such transaction or series of transactions. 

  

	10.	Section 409A. If any payments or benefits due to Executive hereunder would cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code
(“Section 409A”), such payments or benefits shall be restructured in a manner which does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the
extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, 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 months following Executive’s termination date (or death, if earlier), with interest from the date such
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 .payment would have been made but for the delay in payment required
to avoid the imposition of an additional rate of tax on Executive under Section 409A.

with any other person, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity. Executive agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 12(a) are reasonable and desirable to protect the Confidential Information of the Company, provided, that
solicitation through general advertising not targeted at the Company’s employees or the provision of references shall not constitute a breach of such obligations. 

  

	 	(b)	Covenant Not to Compete. 

  

	 	(i)	 To protect the Confidential Information and other trade secrets of the Company as well as the goodwill and competitive business of the Company, Executive agrees,
during the Employment Term and for a period of twenty-four (24) months after Executive’s cessation of employment with the Company, that Executive will not, 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 



  

 13 








	 	 
party or any business whose products compete (including as described below) in whole or in part with the products (both on market and in development) of the
Company (disregarding any non-pain management products that were not products promoted by the Company during the last three years). 


  

	 	(ii)	For purposes of this Section 12(b), any third party or any business whose products compete includes any entity with which the Company has had a product(s) licensing agreement
during the Employment Term and any entity with which the Company is at the time of termination actively negotiating, and eventually concludes within twelve (12) months of the Employment Term, a commercial agreement. 

  

	 	(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 subsidiaries, 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 subsidiaries. The Company agrees that, during and following the Employment Term, neither the Company nor any director or officer,
will make any statement that disparages Executive or encourages or induces 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 response to a valid subpoena, court order, regulatory request or other judicial, administrative or legal process or otherwise as required by law. 

  

	 	(d)	 Cooperation in Any Investigations and Litigation. Executive agrees that Executive will reasonably cooperate with the Company, and its counsel, in connection
with any investigation, inquiry, administrative proceeding or litigation relating to any matter in which Executive becomes involved or of which Executive has knowledge as a result of Executive’s service with the Company by providing truthful
information. The Company agrees to promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses reasonably incurred by Executive, in connection with Executive’s cooperation pursuant to this Section 12(d). 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 agrees that, in the event Executive is subpoenaed by any person or entity (including, but not limited to, any government
agency) to give testimony (in a deposition, court proceeding or otherwise) which in any way relates to 



  

 14 








	 	 
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 the Company 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 12 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 12 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.


  

	 	(f)	Survive. Executive’s obligations under this Section 12 shall survive the termination of the Employment Term. 

  

	13.	Remedies for Breach of Obligations under Sections 11 or 12 hereof. Executive acknowledges that the Company will suffer irreparable injury, not readily susceptible of
valuation in monetary damages, if Executive breaches Executive’s obligations under Sections 11 or 12 hereof. Accordingly, Executive agrees that the Company 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 11 or 12 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 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. 

  

	14.	Representations and Warranties by Executive. 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.


  

	15.	Miscellaneous. 

  

	 	(a)	Successors and Assigns. 

  

 15 








	 	(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 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. The Company may not assign or delegate any rights or
obligations hereunder except to a successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company. The term “the Company” as used herein shall
include a corporation or other entity acquiring all or substantially all the assets and business of the Company (including this Agreement) whether by operation of law or otherwise. 

  

	 	(ii)	Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable or transferable by Executive, Executive’s beneficiaries or legal representatives, except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal personal representatives. 

  

	 	(b)	Right to Counsel. Executive acknowledges that Executive has had the opportunity to consult with legal counsel of Executive’s choice in connection with the drafting,
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and related employment arrangements. 

  

	 	(c)	Notice. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement (including the Notice of Termination) shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or sent by Certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses last given by each party to the other, provided that all notices to the
Company shall be directed to the attention of the Chief Legal Officer of the Company with a copy to the Chief Executive Officer. All notices and communications shall be deemed to have been received on the date of delivery thereof or on the third
business day after the mailing thereof, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt. 

  

	 	(d)	Indemnification. Executive shall be indemnified by the Company as provided in Company’s by-laws and Certificate of Incorporation. The obligations under this paragraph
shall survive any termination of the Employment Term. 

  

	 	(e)	Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to withhold the amount, if any, of all taxes of any applicable jurisdiction required to be withheld by an employer with respect to
any amount paid to Executive hereunder. The Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall make all determinations as to whether it is obligated to withhold any taxes hereunder and the amount hereof. 

  

	 	(f)	 Release of Claims. The termination benefits described in Sections 8(d) and 8(e) of this Agreement shall be conditioned on Executive delivering to the
Company, a 



  

 16 








	 	 
signed release of claims in the form of Exhibit B hereto within forty-five (45) days or twenty-one (21) days, as may be applicable under the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, following Executive’s termination date, and not revoking Executive’s consent to such release of claims within seven (7) days of such
execution; provided, however, that Executive shall not be required to release any rights Executive may have to be indemnified by the Company under Section 15(d) of this Agreement. 


  

	 	(g)	Modification. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by
Executive and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of
similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreement or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are
not expressly set forth in this Agreement. 

  

	 	(h)	Effect of Other Law. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the terms of this Agreement shall be modified to the extent required to meet the provisions of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Section 409A, or other federal law applicable to the employment arrangements between Executive and the Company. 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 of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Company shall provide economically equivalent payments or benefits to Executive to
the extent permitted by law. 

  

	 	(i)	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. 

  

	 	(j)	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, without
limitation, 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. 

  

	 	(k)	Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions hereof. 

  

 17 








	 	(l)	Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements, if any, understandings and arrangements,
oral or written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

  

	 	(m)	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken
together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement
to be executed by its duly authorized officer and Executive has executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

 EXHIBIT B 
 FORM OF RELEASE AGREEMENT 
 THIS RELEASE AGREEMENT (the “Release”) is made as of this
     day of                     ,         , by and between Ivan Gergel

	1.	 FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of the payments and benefits provided in the Employment Agreement between Executive and the Company dated as of April 1, 2008, (the
“Employment Agreement”), Executive, for himself or herself, his or her successors and assigns, executors and administrators, now and forever hereby releases and discharges the Company, together with all of its past and present parents,
subsidiaries, and affiliates, together with each of their officers, directors, stockholders, partners, employees, agents, representatives and attorneys, and each of their subsidiaries, affiliates, estates, predecessors, successors, and assigns
(hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Releasees”) from any and all rights, claims, charges, actions, causes of action, complaints, sums of money, suits, debts, covenants, contracts, agreements, promises, obligations,
damages, demands or liabilities of every kind whatsoever, in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which Executive or Executive’s executors, administrators, successors or assigns ever had, now has or may
hereafter claim to have by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever; arising from the beginning of time up to the date of the Release: (i) relating in any way to Executive’s employment relationship with the Company or any of the
Releasees, or the termination of Executive’s employment relationship with the Company or any of the Releasees; (ii) arising under or relating to the Employment Agreement; (iii) arising under any federal, local or state statute or
regulation, including, without limitation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Employee

agreement, understanding or promise, written or oral, formal or informal, between the Company and any of the Releasees and Executive; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in the Release shall in any
way diminish or impair: (a) any rights Executive may have, from and after the date the Release is executed, under Sections 8(d) or 8(e) or 12(c) or 12(d) of the Employment Agreement; (b) any rights to indemnification that may exist from
time to time under the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or state law; (c) any rights Executive may have to vested benefits under employee benefit plans or incentive compensation plans of the Company;
(d) Executive’s ability to bring appropriate proceedings to enforce the Release; or (e) any rights or claims Executive may have that cannot be waived under applicable law (collectively, the “Excluded Claims”).
Executive further acknowledges and agrees that, except with respect to Excluded Claims, the Company and the Releasees have fully satisfied any and all obligations whatsoever owed to Executive arising out of Executive’s 



  

 1 








	 	 
employment with the Company or any of the Releasees, and that no further payments or benefits are owed to Executive by the Company or any of the Releasees.



  

	2.	Executive understands and agrees that, except for the Excluded Claims, Executive has knowingly relinquished, waived and forever released any and all rights to any personal recovery
in any action or proceeding that may be commenced on Executive’s behalf arising out of the aforesaid employment relationship or the termination thereof, including, without limitation, claims for backpay, front pay, liquidated damages,
compensatory damages, general damages, special damages, punitive damages, exemplary damages, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees. 

  

	3.	Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has been advised to consult with an attorney of Executive’s choosing prior to signing the Release. Executive understands and
agrees that Executive has the right and has been given the opportunity to review the Release with an attorney of Executive’s choice should Executive so desire. Executive also agrees that Executive has entered into the Release freely and
voluntarily. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Executive has had at least [twenty-one (21)] [forty-five (45)] calendar days to consider the Release, although Executive may sign it sooner if Executive wishes. In addition, once Executive
has signed the Release, Executive shall have seven (7) additional days from the date of execution to revoke Executive’s consent and may do so by writing to:
                    . The Release shall not be effective, and no payments shall be due hereunder, until the eighth (8th) day after Executive
shall have executed the Release and returned it to the Company, assuming that Executive had not revoked Executive’s consent to the Release prior to such date. 

  

	4.	It is understood and agreed by Executive that the payment made to Executive is not to be construed as an admission of any liability whatsoever on the part of the Company or any of
the other Releasees, by whom liability is expressly denied. 

  

	5.	The Release is executed by Executive voluntarily and is not based upon any representations or statements of any kind made by the Company or any of the other Releasees as to the
merits, legal liabilities or value of Executive’s claims. Executive further acknowledges that Executive has had a full and reasonable opportunity to consider the Release and that Executive has not been pressured or in any way coerced into
executing the Release. 

  

	6.	The exclusive venue for any disputes arising hereunder shall be the state or federal courts located in the State of Delaware, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto also agrees that any final and unappealable judgment against a party hereto in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, either within
or outside of the United States. A certified or exemplified copy of such award or judgment shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such award or judgment. 

  

 2 








	7.	The Release and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. If any provision hereof is
unenforceable or is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and this document and its terms shall be construed and enforced as if such unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, the remaining provisions
hereof shall remain in full force and effect, and the court construing the provisions shall add as a part hereof a provision as similar in terms and effect to such unenforceable provision as may be enforceable, in lieu of the unenforceable
provision. 

  

	8.	The Release shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Executive and the Company have executed the Release as of the date and year first written above.
