          -  No prior chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy or anti-ErbB1/ErbB2 therapy for
             metastatic or recurrent disease (other than neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy). Prior
             hormonal therapy (e.g., tamoxifen, raloxifen or an aromatase inhibitor) for advanced
             or metastatic disease is permitted provided at least 2 weeks have elapsed between the
             completion of the prior therapy and start of study drugs.

          -  Note: Subjects must have documented progressive disease (PD) or be intolerant to
             hormonal therapy. This must be documented in the source documentation.

          -  Prior neoadjuvant therapy and/or adjuvant therapy is permitted.

          -  Note:

          -  (a) Subjects who have received both neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies must have at
             least 6 months between completion of the chemotherapy-component of adjuvant therapy
             and start of study drug(s)

          -  (b) Subjects who have received only adjuvant therapy must have at least 6 months
             between completion of the chemotherapy-component of adjuvant therapy and start of
             study drug(s)

          -  (c) Subjects who have received only neoadjuvant therapy must have at least 6 months
             between completion of neoadjuvant therapy and start of study drug(s)

          -  (d) Subjects who have received trastuzumab or hormonal agents as all or part of
             adjuvant therapy are eligible provided: (1) 2 weeks have elapsed since last dose (2) 6
             months have elapsed between the start of trastuzumab or hormonal therapy and start of
             study drugs.

          -  Radiotherapy prior to initiation of randomized therapy to a limited area (e.g.,
             palliative treatment for painful disease) other than the sole site of measurable and
             assessable disease is allowed however, subjects must have completed treatment at least
             4 weeks prior to starting study drugs, and must have recovered from all
             treatment-related toxicities prior to starting pazopanib and/or lapatinib.

          -  Documented amplification of ErbB2 by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) in
             either the primary or metastatic tumor tissue. Archived tumor tissue must be provided
             for ErbB2 FISH testing by the central laboratory, which will be used to determine
             eligibility.

          -  Note: Subjects that have documented ErbB2 amplification based on prior FISH testing or
             documented ErbB2 overexpression based on prior immunohistochemistry (IHC) with a value
             of 3+ are eligible, however, archived tumor tissue must be provided for confirmation
             by the central laboratory. If the results from prior testing are not confirmed by the
             central laboratory, then the subject can continue to receive study drug(s) at the
             discretion of the investigator, but will be excluded from the statistical analysis.

          -  Archived tumor tissue (paraffin-embedded) must be available to correlate tumor
             response with intra-tumoral genetic changes as well as expression levels of relevant
             biomarkers. Results of biomarkers will not be used to determine subject eligibility
             for the study.
