The Executive's employment with the Corporation may be terminated with or without Cause.

Any termination by the Corporation for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party in accordance with Section 7.4. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (a) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (b) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated and (c) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more than 30 days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Corporation or the Executive to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause or Good Reason shall not waive any right of the Corporation or the Executive, respectively, hereunder or preclude the Corporation or the Executive, respectively, from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Corporation's or the Executive's rights hereunder.
4.5    Date of Termination


“Date of Termination” means (a) if the Executive's employment is terminated by the Corporation for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein, as the case may be, (b) if the Executive's employment is terminated by the Corporation other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Corporation notifies the Executive of such termination and (c) if the Executive's employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be. The Corporation and the Executive shall take all steps necessary (including with regard to any post-termination services by the Executive) to ensure that any termination described in this Section 4.5 constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, 









and the date on which such separation from service takes place shall be the “Date of Termination.”

ARTICLE 5
OBLIGATIONS OF CORPORATION UPON TERMINATION


5.1    Good Reason; Other than for Cause


If the Corporation shall terminate the Executive's employment other than for Cause, or if the Executive shall terminate the Executive's employment for Good Reason: 
		
	(a)
	The Corporation shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Executive in a lump sum in cash the sum of: (i) the Executive's Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination, and (ii) any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”). The Accrued Obligations shall be paid within 30 days after the Date of Termination. 




		
	(b)
	The Corporation shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Executive in a lump sum in cash an amount equal to the Executive's Annual Base salary. Such lump sum payment shall be made within 60 days after the Date of Termination or such later date set forth in section 7.8.




		
	(c)
	To the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Affiliated Group shall pay or provide, or cause to be paid or provided, to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Affiliated Group (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Other Benefits”), in accordance with the terms and normal procedures of each such plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement, based on accrued and vested benefits through the Date of Termination.




		
	(d)
	The Corporation shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Executive in a lump sum 











in cash an amount equal to the Executive's “average annual bonus” (described below). Such payment shall be made within 60 days after the Date of Termination, or such later date set forth in Section 7.8, and shall be in lieu of any annual incentive for the year of termination. For this purpose, average annual bonus means an amount equal to the average of the bonuses earned by the Executive under the Corporation's annual incentive plan for the last two fiscal years prior to the Date of Termination. For purposes of clarity, (i) if the Executive earns a prorated bonus for one or more of the applicable years, the average annual bonus will be calculated using the prorated amount for such year(s), and (ii) if the Executive does not receive a bonus for one or more of the applicable years, the average annual bonus will be calculated using a zero dollar amount for such years).


		
	(e)
	If the Date of Termination occurs within twelve months after the occurrence of a Change in Control, then, in lieu of the amounts described in Sections 5.1(b) and (d) above, the Corporation shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Executive in a lump sum in cash the sum of: (i) the Executive's Annual Base Salary and (ii) the Executive's "target" annual bonus opportunity (as described in Section 3.2). Such lump sum payment shall be made within 60 days after the Date of Termination or such later date set forth in Section 7.8.




If the Executive receives payments and benefits pursuant to this Section 5.1, then the Executive shall not be entitled to any other severance pay or benefits under any severance plan, program or policy of any member of the Affiliated Group, unless otherwise specifically provided therein in a specific reference to this Agreement 
5.2    Death or Disability; Cause; Other than for Good Reason


If the Executive's employment is terminated due to death or Disability or for Cause, or if the Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive other than the obligation to pay to the Executive his Accrued Obligations through the Date of Termination and the Other Benefits, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid or provided. Subject to any withholding required by Section 3.3, all Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with Section 5.1(a) and the Other benefits shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with Section 5.1 (c).
5.3    Release


Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall only be obligated to make the payments under Sections 5.1(b). 5.l(d) and 5.l(e) if: (a) within the 5o-day period after the Date of Termination, the Executive executes a general release, in a form provided by the Corporation, of all current or future claims, known or unknown, against the Affiliated Group, its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents arising on or before the date of the release, including but not limited to all claims arising out of the Executive's employment with the Affiliated Group or the termination of such employment, and (b) the Executive does not revoke the release during the seven-day 









revocation period prescribed by the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, or any similar revocation period, if applicable.  The Corporation shall be obligated to provide such release to the Executive promptly following the Date of Termination.
ARTICLE 6
RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS


6.1    In General


The Executive acknowledges that in the course of his employment he will become familiar with trade secrets and customer lists of and other confidential information concerning the Affiliated Group and that his services have been of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Affiliated Group.
6.2    Confidentiality Undertaking


The Executive confirms that he is bound by the provisions of the Confidentiality Undertaking covenant set out in Schedule B hereto.
6.3    Non-Solicitation


		
	(a)
	During the 12-month period immediately following the Date of Termination, the Executive shall not in any manner, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce or attempt to solicit or induce any employee of any member of the Affiliated Group to quit or abandon his or her employ or to become an officer, agent, employee, partner, director, consultant or independent contractor of the Executive, his affiliates or any other individual or entity.




		
	(b)
	During the 12-month period immediately following the Date of Termination, the Executive shall not in any manner, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce or attempt to solicit or induce, any customer, supplier or licensor of any member of the Affiliated Group to cease doing business with any member of the Affiliated Group, or in any way interfere with the relationships between any customer, supplier or licensor of the Affiliated Group.




6.4    Non-Competition


During the 12-month period immediately following the Date of Termination, the Executive shall not in any manner, directly or indirectly, compete with the business of any member of the Affiliated Group by (a) becoming an officer, agent, employee, partner, director, consultant, independent contractor of a Competitor, or (b) acquiring an ownership interest in a Competitor, provided that the Executive may, for investment purposes, own not more than 1% of the outstanding stock of any class of a Competitor that is listed on a recognized stock exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market in Canada or the United States. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competitor” means any person or entity that engages in the pharmaceutical development and manufacturing outsourcing business in 









Canada, the United States (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico), India or Europe.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6.4 shall not apply if the Executive is terminated by the Corporation other than for Cause.
6.5    Reasonableness and Revision


The Executive agrees and acknowledges that due to the uniqueness of his services and the confidential nature of the information he will possess, the covenants set forth in this Article 6 and Schedule B are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the business interests and goodwill of the Affiliated Group. Moreover, the geographic restriction on competitive activities by the Executive is reasonable, given the global nature of the Affiliated Group's business and the Executive's role in that business.  If, at the time of enforcement of this Article and/or Schedule B, a court or other tribunal holds that the restrictions herein are in whole or in part unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum period or scope reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period or scope and that the court or other tribunal shall be authorized and directed by the parties to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period or scope permitted by law.
6.6    Acknowledgements


The Executive agrees and acknowledges that the promises and obligations made by the Corporation in this Agreement (specifically including, but not limited to, the payments and benefits provided for under Section 5.1(b) and (d) hereof) constitute sufficient consideration for the covenants contained in this Article 6. The Executive further acknowledges that it is not the Affiliated Group's intention to interfere in any way with his employment opportunities, except in such situations where the same conflict with the legitimate business interests of the Affiliated Group. The Executive agrees that he will notify the Corporation in writing if he has, or reasonably should have, any questions regarding the applicability of this Article 6.
6.7    Enforcement


Because the Executive's services are unique and because the Executive has access to Confidential Information and work product, the parties agree that the Affiliated Group will be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of Section 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4 are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached and that money damages will be an inadequate remedy for any such non-performance or breach. Therefore, anyone or more of the members of the Affiliated Group, or their respective successors and assigns, will be entitled. in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent any breach or threatened breach of any of such provisions and to enforce such provisions specifically (without posting a bond or other security). The Executive agrees and acknowledges that he will not assert in any such enforcement action that there is an adequate remedy in damages and that such rights and remedies will be in addition to and not in lieu of any other rights or remedies available to the Affiliated Group at law or in equity.
6.8    Survival











Subject to any limits on applicability contained therein, this Article 6 shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with its terms notwithstanding any expiration or termination of this Agreement.

	(a)
	It is the Corporation's intent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement shall be exempt from the application of, or otherwise comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). Specifically, any taxable benefits or payments provided under this Agreement are intended to be separate payments that qualify for the “short-term deferral” exception to Section 











409A to the maximum extent possible, and to the extent they do not so qualify, are intended to qualify for the involuntary separation pay exceptions to Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. This Agreement shall be construed, administered, and governed in a manner that effects such intent, and the Corporation shall not take any action that would be inconsistent with such intent. Without limiting the foregoing, the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement may not be deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A upon the Executive.
		
	(b)
	If neither the “short-term deferral” or the involuntary separation pay exceptions to Section 409A described above applies to a benefit, payment or reimbursement under this Agreement, then notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, the remaining provisions of this Section 7.8(b) shall apply.




		
	(i)
	If the Executive is a “specified employee,” as determined under the Corporation's policy for identifying specified employees on the Date of Termination, then to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, all payments, benefits or reimbursements paid or provided under this Agreement that constitute a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, that are provided as a result of a “separation from service” within the meaning of section 409A and that would otherwise be paid or provided during the first six months following such Date of Termination shall be accumulated through and paid or provided (together with interest on the delayed amount at the applicable federal rate under Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code in effect on the Date of Termination) within 30 days after the first business day following the six month anniversary of such Date of Termination (or, if the Executive dies during such six-month period, within 30 days after the Executive's death).




		
	(ii)
	To the extent required to comply with Section 409A Code, any reimbursement of expenses pursuant to Section 2.4(b), 2.4(c) or 3.7, that will not be excluded from Executive's income when received is subject to the following requirements: (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement. or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other calendar year; (ii) the reimbursement of the eligible expense must be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.




		
	(c)
	Although the Corporation shall use its best efforts to avoid the imposition of taxation, interest and penalties under section 409A of the Code, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under this Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Affiliated Group nor its directors. officers, employees or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other monetary amounts owed by the Executive or other taxpayer as a result of the Agreement. Any reference in 











this Agreement to Section 409A of the Code will also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with respect to such Section 409A by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.
