 EMPLOYMENT TRANSFER MATTERS FOR MEAD JOHNSON EMPLOYEES 
 3.1 Continuation of Employment.

the Separation, Mead Johnson and BMS shall take or cause to be taken such actions as are required under applicable law to accomplish such transfer of employment of such Mead Johnson Employee to the appropriate member of the Mead Johnson Group. Where
applicable law or rules do not provide for the transfer of employment of any Mead Johnson Employee in connection with the Separation, Mead Johnson shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, offer all such Mead Johnson Employees at-will
employment (to the extent permitted by applicable law) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, commencing on the Separation Date. 
  

 18 








 (b) Offers of Employment. To the extent not provided for by operation of law, Mead Johnson shall,
and shall cause its Affiliates to, offer at-will employment (to the extent permitted by applicable law) to the Mead Johnson Employees (including Inactive Mead Johnson Employees who within six months after the Separation Date (or such other period as
may be required by applicable law) become ineligible for continued benefits under the applicable BMS Short-Term Disability Plan and become eligible to return to active status with Mead Johnson), in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement,
at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the Separation Date (or such longer period required by applicable law, applicable collective bargaining agreement, trade union agreement or works council agreement), commencing on the Separation
Date; provided that in the case of Inactive Mead Johnson Employees, such offer shall be effective immediately upon any such Employee’s ability to return to active work. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each offer of employment by
Mead Johnson or its Affiliate to each Mead Johnson Employee shall in each case provide a base salary (or wages) no less favorable than the base salary (or wages) provided to such Mead Johnson Employee immediately prior to the Separation Date. Prior
to the Separation Date, Mead Johnson shall set forth on Subsection 3.1(b) of the Schedules the employee benefits that shall be provided to Mead Johnson Transferred Employees on the Separation Date on a country-by-country basis.

 (c) No Termination of Employment. No provision of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement shall be
construed to create any right, or accelerate entitlement, to any compensation or benefit whatsoever on the part of any Mead Johnson Employee, Mead Johnson Transferred Employee or other future, present or former employee of BMS or Mead Johnson under
any BMS Plan or Mead Johnson Plan or applicable law or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) neither the Separation, nor the termination of the Participating Company status of Mead Johnson or any member of the Mead
Johnson Group is intended to cause any employee to incur a termination of employment; and (ii) no transfer of employment between BMS and Mead Johnson before the Separation Date is intended to be a termination of employment for any purpose
hereunder. The members of the Mead Johnson Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make the offers of employment described in Subsection 3.1(b) on terms and conditions sufficient to avoid statutory severance or similar obligations
under applicable law, except to the extent such severance or similar obligations arise without regard to such terms. 
 (d) Assumption of
Liability; Indemnity. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if applicable law requires a member of the BMS Group to make any payment or provide any benefit to any Mead Johnson Employee in the event no member of
the Mead Johnson Group offers to provide such Mead Johnson Employee with a specified level of compensation or benefits, then Mead Johnson and its Affiliates shall offer to provide such level of compensation or benefits to the extent necessary to
prevent any member of the BMS Group from being so obligated to such Mead Johnson Employee. Mead Johnson shall assume and be solely responsible for all Liabilities with respect to claims made by any Mead Johnson Employee for severance, indemnity or
other termination pay or other benefits (i) relating to or resulting from Mead Johnson’s failure to offer employment to any Mead Johnson Employee (or failure to continue the employment of any Mead Johnson Employee of a Transferred Entity)
or failure to offer or continue employment on terms and conditions which would preclude any claims of constructive dismissal or similar claims under any applicable law or other failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) where such
severance, indemnity or termination 

  

 19 








 
pay or other benefits are required to be paid under applicable law upon the Separation without regard to such terms and conditions or such continuation of
employment or (iii) where such severance, indemnity or termination pay or notice or benefits are required to be paid to a Mead Johnson Employee due to a Mead Johnson Employee’s refusal to accept the offer of employment from the new Mead
Johnson entity. From and after the Separation Date, Mead Johnson shall indemnify and hold harmless BMS and its Affiliates against all losses which BMS may suffer or incur as a result of any claim, action or any proceeding made by any Mead Johnson
Employee against BMS or its Affiliates from and after the Separation Date or arising from any breach of Mead Johnson’s obligations under this Subsection 3.1(d). Mead Johnson shall promptly reimburse BMS for any separation payments
described in this Subsection 3.1(d) that BMS makes. 
 3.2 Acquired Rights Directive. BMS and Mead Johnson acknowledge and agree
that under the provisions implementing the Acquired Rights Directive, each contract of employment between BMS or any other member of the BMS Group and a Foreign Mead Johnson Transferred Employee and, subject to applicable law, any labor or
collective bargaining agreement or works council agreement shall have effect for the Foreign Mead Johnson Transferred Employees employed primarily in Europe as if originally made between Mead Johnson or another member of the Mead Johnson Group and
the Foreign Transferred Employee or between Mead Johnson or another member of the Mead Johnson Group and the other parties to the labor or collective bargaining agreements or works council agreements, as the case may be. 
 3.3 Collective Bargaining and Works Council Agreements. Except as set forth on Section 3.3 of the Schedules, effective as of the
Separation Date, Mead Johnson shall assume any labor or collective bargaining agreements or trade union agreements in effect with respect to any Foreign Mead Johnson Transferred Employee. Where required to do so under applicable law, Mead Johnson
shall also assume any works council agreements in effect with respect to any Foreign Mead Johnson Transferred Employee. 
 3.4 Terms of
Mead Johnson Employment. The annual cash base salary of Mead Johnson Employees and Mead Johnson Transferred Employees as of the Separation Date shall remain the same as or greater than the annual cash base salary that was in place immediately
prior to the Separation Date when the Mead Johnson Employee or Mead Johnson Transferred Employee was employed by a member of the BMS Group, as applicable, and Mead Johnson shall assume all Liabilities arising in accordance with all employment
agreements, supplemental benefit agreements and other agreements entered into between a Mead Johnson Transferred Employee and a member of the BMS Group and shall indemnify and hold harmless BMS and each member of the BMS Group against any such
Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Mead Johnson Employee and Mead Johnson Transferred Employee shall be required at the request of Mead Johnson to execute a new agreement regarding confidential information and proprietary developments
in a form approved by Mead Johnson. In addition, nothing in the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement should be construed to change the at-will status of any of the employees of the BMS Group or the Mead Johnson Group.

 3.5 Employees with Work Visas or Permits; License to Do Business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.1:
(i) Mead Johnson Employees who, on the Separation Date, are employed pursuant to a work or training visa or permit which authorizes 

  

 20 








 
employment only by the a member of the BMS Group shall remain employed by such member of the BMS Group until the visa or permit is amended or a new visa or
permit is granted to authorize employment by a member of the Mead Johnson Group; and (ii) in the event that any Affiliate of Mead Johnson is not licensed to do business in its primary place of business, the Mead Johnson Employees at such place
of business shall remain employed by a member of the BMS Group until such license is granted. At the time such amended or new visa or license to do business is issued, such Mead Johnson Employees shall become employees of a member of the Mead
Johnson Group with substantially similar rights as all other Mead Johnson Employees. During the period from the Separation Date until the amended or new visa or permit or license to do business is issued, such employee shall continue to participate
in BMS Plans and Mead Johnson shall, as and when invoiced by BMS, promptly reimburse BMS for its direct and indirect costs and expenses relating to compensation, employment and benefits.

a base salary (or wages) no less favorable than the base salary (or wages) provided to such Foreign BMS Employee immediately prior to the Separation Date.

intended to cause any employee to incur a termination of employment; and (ii) no transfer of employment between Mead Johnson and BMS before the Separation Date is intended to be a termination of employment for any purpose hereunder. The members
of the BMS Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make the offers of employment described in Subsection 4.1(a) on terms and conditions sufficient to avoid statutory severance or similar obligations under applicable law, except to
the extent such severance or similar obligations arise without regard to such terms. 
  

 21 








 (c) Assumption of Liability; Indemnity. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if applicable law requires a member of the BMS Group to make any payment or provide any benefit to any Foreign BMS Employee in the event no member of the BMS Group offers to provide such Foreign BMS Employee with a specified level of
compensation or benefits, then BMS and its Affiliates shall offer to provide such level of compensation or benefits to the extent necessary to prevent any member of the Mead Johnson Group from being so obligated to such Foreign BMS Employee. BMS
shall assume and be solely responsible for all Liabilities with respect to claims made by any Foreign BMS Employee for severance, indemnity or other termination pay or other benefits (i) relating to or resulting from BMS’s failure to offer

under any applicable law or other failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) where such severance, indemnity or termination pay or other benefits are required to be paid under applicable law upon the Separation without regard to
such terms and conditions or such continuation of employment or (iii) where such severance, indemnity or termination pay or notice or benefits are required to be paid to a Foreign BMS Employee due to a Foreign BMS Employee’s refusal to
accept the offer of employment from the new Mead Johnson entity. From and after the Separation Date, BMS shall indemnify and hold harmless Mead Johnson and its Affiliates against all losses which BMS may suffer or incur as a result of any claim,
action or any proceeding made by any Foreign BMS Employee against BMS or its Affiliates from and after the Separation Date or arising from any breach of BMS’s obligations under this Section 4.1. BMS shall promptly reimburse Mead Johnson
for any separation payments described in this Subsection 4.1(c) that Mead Johnson makes.

member of the Mead Johnson Group shall remain employed by such member of the Mead Johnson Group until the visa or permit is amended or a new visa or permit is granted to authorize employment by a member of the BMS Group; and (ii) in the event
that any Affiliate of BMS is not licensed to do business in its primary place of business, the Foreign BMS Employees at such place of business shall remain employed by a member of the Mead Johnson Group until such license is granted. At the time
