 I. INTRODUCTION 

The Gilead Sciences, Inc. Severance Plan (the “Plan”) was originally adopted by the Company effective January 29, 2003, and was subsequently
amended and restated effective January 1, 2005, on May 9, 2006. The Plan was further amended and restated on May 8, 2007 and subsequently amended in February and May 2008 in order to effect the following: (i) bring the Plan into
documentary compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the final Treasury Regulations thereunder and (ii) incorporate certain transitional relief in accordance with (A) Treasury Notice 2005-1, Q&A-19, as modified by the preamble
to the proposed and the final regulations pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, published in the Federal Register on October 4, 2005 and April 17, 2007, respectively, and (B) Treasury Notice 2007-86. This Plan and Summary Plan
Description as so amended and restated effects such full documentary compliance under Section 409A of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations, effective January 1, 2009, and replaces all severance or similar plans or programs of
the Company previously in effect. The Company has no severance or similar plan or program other than this Plan.1 

The May 7, 2008 restatement of the Plan also revised the bonus component of the Severance Pay Benefit formulas in Appendix A, Appendix B and Appendix C
to comply with Revenue Ruling 2008-13. Such amendment was effective as of May 7, 2008. 
 The Plan was further amended on December 15, 2008 to
provide, effective as of January 1, 2009, that (i) the cash severance benefits to which individuals covered by Appendix D may become entitled under the Plan shall be paid in a lump sum and (ii) the COBRA coverage costs that
Participants may incur for the applicable period specified in Appendix A, B, C or D following their termination of employment shall be paid in the form of a lump sum prepayment, subject to the Company’s collection of the applicable withholding
taxes. 
 The Plan was amended on December 14, 2009 to provide, effective as of January 1, 2010, that the bonus component of the severance benefit
formula in effect under Appendix A and Appendix B of the Plan for the covered Participants thereunder whose qualifying termination occurs in a non-change in control situation will no longer calculated by applying the specified multiple in such
situation to a pro-rated portion of their average actual bonus for the three-year or shorter period preceding the fiscal year of their termination but will instead be calculated by applying that multiple to one hundred percent of such average actual
annual bonus. 
   
  

	1 	The Triangle Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Severance Plan remained in effect until January 23, 2004 and provided benefits to employees of Triangle who were involuntarily terminated. 

  
 1 

 The Plan was further amended on January 28, 2010 to limit the class of participants eligible to qualify for
the potential tax gross-up payment under Appendices A through C to the Plan that is designed to cover any excise tax liability they might incur under Section 4999 of the Code in connection with the severance benefits provided to them under the
Plan and to implement a greatest after-tax benefit limitation for participants whose benefits under the Plan may constitute parachute payments under Section 280G of the Code but who are not otherwise eligible for any tax gross-up payment under
the Plan that would cover any resulting tax liability to which they might otherwise become subject under Section 4999 of the Code. 
 The Plan was
further amended on January 26, 2012 to (i) revise the Continuous Service definition with respect to any participant who is reemployed by the Company following an earlier termination of employment with the Company that resulted in his or
her receipt of a severance pay benefit under the Plan so that such individual will not be entitled to any continuous service credit for his or her prior period of employment or service with the Company or for any bridge period between the period of
such prior service and the date of his or her re-employment and (ii) effect certain other clarifying changes to facilitate the administration of the Plan and assure that the Plan continues to comply with
applicable laws and regulations. 
 The Plan was further amended on March 8, 2016 to provide that the Severance Pay Benefit payable to the executive
chair shall be as set forth in Appendix A and that Appendix B covers any executive officer not otherwise covered by Appendix A. In addition, the March 8, 2016 amendment eliminated the potential tax gross-up payment provided to participants who
as of January 28, 2010 were employed in a position with the Company covered under Appendices A through C to the Plan, which gross-up provision was designed to cover any excise tax liability that might be incurred under Section 4999 of the
Code in connection with the severance benefits provided under the Plan, with such amendment being effective on March 8, 2016 except as provided (unless otherwise waived by a participant) in Section VII(b) of the Severance Plan in the event that
during the six months after March 8, 2016 there occurs the public announcement of an event or proposed transaction which would constitute a Change in Control (as such term is defined in the Severance Plan). Upon the effectiveness of the
amendment, a participant in the Severance Plan employed in a position that is covered under Appendices A through C shall be provided the greatest after-tax benefit as provided for under such Appendix. 

The purpose of the Plan is to provide a Severance Pay Benefit to certain Eligible Employees whose employment with the Company terminates under certain
prescribed circumstances. The Company is the Plan Administrator for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the
Code. 
 Capitalized terms used in this Plan shall have the meaning set forth in Section XVII. 

II. COMMENCEMENT OF PARTICIPATION 
 An Eligible Employee shall
commence participation in the Plan upon the later of (i) January 29, 2003 or (ii) his or her date of hire. 
 III. TERMINATION OF
PARTICIPATION 
 A Participant’s participation in the Plan shall terminate upon the occurrence of the earliest of the following: 

 

	(a)	The Participant’s employment terminates without meeting the requirements of Section IV(a)(i)(1). 

  

	(b)	The Participant’s employment terminates with a provision of Section IV(a)(ii) being applicable. 

  

	(c)	The Participant fails to meet the requirements of Section IV(a)(i)(2). 

  

	(d)	The Participant has received a complete distribution of his or her Severance Pay Benefit. 

  
 2 

	(e)	The Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee (other than by reason of termination of his or her employment with the Company). 

  

	(f)	The Plan terminates. 

 IV. SEVERANCE PAY BENEFIT 

 

	(a)	Eligibility for Severance Pay Benefit. 

  

	 	(i)	Subject to Section IV(a)(ii), a Participant shall be eligible for a Severance Pay Benefit only if the Participant meets the requirements of Section IV(a)(i)(1) and Section IV(a)(i)(2). 

 

	 	(1)	The Participant incurs a Separation from Service as a result of an involuntary termination of his or her Employee status by the Company because of a Company-wide or departmental reorganization or a significant
restructuring of the Participant’s job duties; provided, however, that a Participant’s Employee status shall also be deemed to have been involuntarily terminated by the Company if he or she resigns because of (A) a transfer to a new
work location that is more than 50 miles from his or her previous work location, and (B) in the case of a Participant whose Severance Pay Benefit is determined with reference to Appendix A, B or C, a Constructive Termination (as defined in
Section 11(d) of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan) in conjunction with a Change in Control and within the time specified in Appendix A, B or C, as applicable. 

  
 3 

	 	(2)	The Participant executes and delivers to the Company the Release within the time frame prescribed by the Company therein, but in no event later than the forty-fifth (45th) day following his or her Separation from
Service, and the period (if any such period is prescribed by the Company in the Release) for revoking the execution of the Release under the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. § 626(f), expires without the Participant’s
revocation of such Release. A Participant’s failure to comply on a timely basis with such Release requirement shall render such individual ineligible to receive any Separation Pay Benefit under the Plan. 

Under no circumstances shall a Participant be eligible for a Severance Pay Benefit under the Plan if he or she terminates Employee status for the purpose of
accepting employment with the entity that effectuates a Change in Control, its subsidiaries or affiliates. 
  

	 	(ii)	Notwithstanding Section IV(a)(i), a Participant shall be disqualified from receiving a Severance Pay Benefit upon the occurrence of any of the following: 

 

	 	(1)	The Participant voluntarily terminates Employee status for any reason prior to the termination date set by the Company; 

  

	 	(2)	The Participant’s Employee status is terminated by death or for cause (including, without limitation, gross misconduct or dereliction of duty) or for failure to meet performance goals or objectives as determined by
the Company; 

  

	 	(3)	If the Participant is receiving short-term sick leave benefits on the date his or her Employee status terminates, the Participant fails to execute and deliver to the Company, within thirty (30) days after his or
her Separation from Service, a written waiver of any short-term sick leave benefits that might otherwise be payable after such termination of Employee status; 

  

	 	(4)	The Participant terminates Employee status in order to accept employment with an organization that is wholly or partly owned (directly or indirectly) by the Company or an Affiliate; 

 

	 	(5)	The Participant accepts any job with a Buyer or Outsourcing Supplier; 

  

	 	(6)	The Participant is offered full-time employment with a Buyer or Outsourcing Supplier at a new work location 50 miles or less from his or her previous work location with the Company and taking such position would not
result in a reduction in his or her Regular Earnings; 

  
 4 

	 	(7)	Except in the case of a Severance Pay Benefit payable on account of a Change in Control of the Company, the Participant received a severance benefit in connection with an acquisition effected by the Company within 24
months prior to his or her Separation from Service; or 

  

	 	(8)	Except for a Severance Pay Benefit payable on account of a Change in Control of the Company, the Participant has not completed six months of Continuous Service as of the date of his or her termination of Employee
status; provided, however, that, effective May 8, 2007, such service requirement shall not be applicable to Employees who are Vice Presidents or in Grades 21 through 34. 

The business decisions that may result in a Participant qualifying for a Severance Pay Benefit are decisions to be made by the Company in its
sole discretion. In making these decisions, similarly situated organizations, locations, functions, classifications, and/or Participants need not be treated in the same manner. Each Participant remains an employee at will, and the date selected by
the Company to terminate the Participant’s Employee status is within its sole discretion. 
  

	(b)	Amount of Severance Pay Benefit. 

  

	 	(i)	Subject to Section IV(b)(ii), the Severance Pay Benefit payable to a Participant shall be as set forth in the applicable Appendix: 

  

	 	    	Appendix A—The Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer. 

  

	 	    	Appendix B—Executive Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents and any other executive officers not covered by Appendix A. 

  

	 	    	Appendix C—Vice Presidents and Senior Advisors. 

  

	 	    	Appendix D—All Eligible Employees not covered by Appendix A, B, or C. 

  

	 	    	Senior Advisors covered under Appendix C shall only be eligible for a Severance Pay Benefit in connection with a Change in Control. 

  

	 	(ii)	Notwithstanding Section IV(b)(i), the total Severance Pay Benefit otherwise payable to a Participant under the Plan shall be subject to reduction (but not below zero) as follows: 

 

	 	(1)	If a Participant is reemployed by the Company or an Affiliate within the number of weeks after his or her Separation from Service that is equal to the number of weeks taken into consideration in calculating the Regular
Earnings component of his or her Severance Pay Benefit, the total Severance Pay Benefit payable to such Participant shall be reduced to the dollar amount that the Participant’s Regular Earnings would have been for the period from the date of
termination to the date of reemployment. In all cases, the reduced benefit will be based on the Participant’s Regular Earnings used to calculate such Participant’s Severance Pay Benefit under the Plan. A Participant will be considered
“reemployed” under the Plan for purposes of the foregoing repayment provision if he or she is rehired as an Employee or if he or she is retained at a Company facility as or through a contractor for more than a full-time equivalent of more
than 45 work days. 

  
 5 

	 	(2)	If a Participant is employed by a Buyer or Outsourcing Vendor within the number of weeks after his or her Separation from Service that is equal to the number of weeks taken into consideration in calculating the Regular
Earnings component of his or her Severance Pay Benefit, the total Severance Pay Benefit payable to such Participant shall be reduced to the dollar amount that the Participant’s Regular Earnings would have been for the period from the date of
termination to the date of employment with the Buyer or Outsourcing Vendor. 

  

	 	    	Section IV(b)(ii)(2) may be waived in writing by the Company in its sole discretion. 

  

	 	(3)	The Severance Pay Benefit shall be reduced by severance pay or other similar benefits payable under any other plan or policy of the Company or an Affiliate or government required payment (other than unemployment
compensation under United States law), including, but not limited to, any benefit enhancement program adopted as part of a pension plan, but only to the extent the time and form of such alternative payments do not otherwise result in an
impermissible acceleration or deferral under Code Section 409A of the Severance Pay Benefit payable under this Plan. 

  

	 	(4)	The Severance Pay Benefit shall be reduced by any amounts payable pursuant to the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN”) or any other similar federal, state or local statute, but such
reduction shall be effected in a manner that does not otherwise result in an impermissible acceleration or deferral under Code Section 409A of the Severance Pay Benefit payable under this Plan. 

 

	 	(5)	The Severance Pay Benefit shall be reduced by the amount of any indebtedness owed to the Company, but only to the extent such offset would not otherwise contravene any applicable limitations of Code Section 409A.

  

	(c)	Repayment of the Severance Pay Benefit. 

 If the Participant has received payment under the Plan
in excess of the Severance Pay Benefit, as reduced in accordance with Section IV(b)(ii), the Participant must agree as a condition of reemployment that such excess will be repaid to the Company within sixty (60) days after the date his or her
reemployment commences. 
 V. TIME AND FORM OF SEVERANCE PAY BENEFIT 
  

	(a)	 The Severance Pay Benefit (other than the Lump Sum Health Care Payment) for each Participant, other than a Participant whose Severance Pay Benefit is
determined pursuant to Appendix D, shall be paid in equal periodic installments over the total number of weeks taken into account in calculating the Regular Earnings component of the Severance Pay Benefit to which such Participant is entitled.
Except as set forth below, such installments shall be payable over the applicable period on the regularly scheduled pay dates in effect for the Company’s salaried employees, beginning with the first such pay date within the sixty (60)-day
period measured from the date of his or her Separation from Service on which both (A) the Release delivered by the Participant in accordance with Section IV(a)(i)(2) is effective following the expiration of the applicable maximum review and
revocation periods and (B) any waiver required of the Participant pursuant to Section IV(a)(ii)(3) has been delivered on a timely basis to the Company and in the case of such waiver the thirty (30)-day maximum delivery period has expired, or
beginning on such subsequent date thereafter as the Company may determine in its 

  
 6 

	 	
sole discretion, but in no event shall the first such installment be paid later than the last day of such sixty (60)-day period, provided (i) such Release and waiver have each been delivered
to the Company within the required time period following the Participant’s Separation from Service, as set forth in Section IV, (ii) such Release has not been revoked and (iii) should such sixty
(60)-day period measured from the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service extend over two calendar years, then the first such installment of the Severance Pay Benefit shall be paid during the
portion of that sixty (60)-day period that occurs in the second calendar year. 

  

	(b)	For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the Severance Pay Benefit payable pursuant to Section V(a) above shall be deemed to be a series of separate payments, with each installment of the Severance Pay Benefit to
be treated as a separate payment. 

  

	(c)	The Severance Pay Benefit for each Participant whose Severance Pay Benefit is determined pursuant to Appendix D shall be paid in a lump sum on the first regularly scheduled pay date for the Participant’s former job
and location that occurs within the sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of his or her Separation from Service on which both (A) the Release delivered by the Participant in accordance with Section
IV(a)(i)(2) is effective following the expiration of the applicable maximum review and revocation periods and (B) any waiver required of the Participant pursuant to Section IV(a)(ii)(3) has been delivered on a timely basis to the Company and in
the case of such waiver the thirty (30)-day maximum delivery period has expired, or on such subsequent date thereafter as the Company may determine in its sole discretion, but in no event shall such lump sum payment be made later than the last day
of such sixty (60)-day period, provided (i) such Release and waiver have each been delivered to the Company within the required time period following the Participant’s Separation from Service, as set forth in Section IV, (ii) such
Release has not been revoked and (iii) should such sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service extend over two calendar years, then such lump sum payment
shall be made during the portion of that sixty (60)-day period that occurs in the second calendar year. 

  

	(d)	Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section V or any other Section of the Plan, other than Section V(e) and (f) below, no Severance Pay Benefit (or component thereof) that is deemed to constitute
“nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of and subject to Section 409A of the Code shall commence with respect to a Participant until the earlier of (i) the first day of the seventh (7th) month following the
date of such Participant’s Separation from Service or (ii) the date of his or her death, if the Participant is deemed at the time of such Separation from Service to be a Specified Employee and such delayed commencement is
otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2). Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Section V(d), whether they were otherwise payable in
installments or a lump sum, shall be paid in a lump sum to the Participant, and any remaining Severance Pay Benefit shall be paid in accordance with the schedule described in Section V(a) above or in a lump sum to the extent such Severance Pay
Benefit is to be paid pursuant to Section V(c) above. 

  

	(e)	 Notwithstanding Section V(d), should a Participant who is a Specified Employee at the time of his or her Separation from Service become entitled to a
General Severance Pay Benefit prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, then the portion of that Severance Pay Benefit that does not exceed the dollar limit described below and is otherwise scheduled to be paid no later than the last day of
the second calendar year following the calendar year in which his or her Separation from Service occurs will not be subject to any deferred commencement date under Section V(d) and shall be paid to such Participant as it becomes due under Section
V(a), provided and only if such portion qualifies as an involuntary separation pay plan in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations. For purposes of this Section V(e), the applicable

  
 7 

	 	
dollar limitation will be equal to two (2) times the lesser of (A) the Participant’s annualized compensation (based on his or her annual rate of pay for the taxable year preceding
the taxable year of his or her Separation from Service, adjusted to reflect any increase during that taxable year which was expected to continue indefinitely had such Separation from Service not occurred) or (B) the compensation limit under
Section 401(a)(17) of the Code as in effect in the year of the Separation from Service. To the extent the portion of the Severance Pay Benefit to which such Participant would otherwise be entitled under Section V(a) during the deferral period
under Section V(d) exceeds the foregoing dollar limitation, such excess shall be paid in a lump sum upon the expiration of that deferral period, in accordance with the payment delay provisions of Section V(d), and the remainder of the Severance Pay
Benefit (if any) shall be paid in accordance with the schedule described in Section V(a). In no event, however, shall this Section V(e) be applicable to any Severance Pay Benefit (or any portion thereof) which does not qualify as an involuntary
separation pay plan under Section 1.409A-(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations. 

  

	(f)	Section V(d) shall not apply to the lump sum prepayment of COBRA Coverage Costs under Appendix A through D to the extent the dollar amount of that prepayment does not exceed the applicable dollar amount in effect under
Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code for the calendar year in which the Participant’s Separation form Service occurs. 

  

	(g)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no distribution shall be made from the Plan that would constitute an impermissible acceleration of payment as defined in Section 409A(3) of the Code
and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. 

  

	(h)	No interest shall be paid on a Severance Pay Benefit required to be deferred in accordance with the foregoing. 

VI. DEATH OF A PARTICIPANT 
 If a Participant
dies after qualifying for a Severance Pay Benefit but before such benefit is completely paid, the balance of the Severance Pay Benefit shall be paid in a lump sum to the Participant’s Beneficiary not later than the later of
(i) December 31 of the year in which the Participant’s death occurred or (ii) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month following the date of the Participant’s death. 

VII. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 
  

	(a)	General Rule. 

 Although the Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, inasmuch as
future conditions cannot be foreseen, (subject to Sections VII(b) and (c)) the Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time by action of its Board of Directors or by action of a committee or individual(s) acting pursuant to
a valid delegation of authority of the Board of Directors. However, no amendment or termination shall adversely affect the right of a Participant who incurs a Separation from Service prior to the date of such amendment or termination to: 

 

	 	(i)	receive the unpaid balance of any Severance Pay Benefit that has become payable in accordance with the foregoing provisions of the Plan, with such balance to be paid in accordance with the provisions of the Plan in
effect immediately prior to such amendment or termination; or 

  

	 	(ii)	qualify for a Severance Pay Benefit upon the timely execution and delivery of the requisite Release after the date of such amendment or termination. 

  
 8 

	(b)	Restrictions on Amendments. 

 Notwithstanding Section VII(a) of the Plan, and except to the
extent required to comply with applicable law, no termination of the Plan and no amendment described below shall be effective if adopted within six months before or at any time after the public announcement of an event or proposed transaction which
would constitute a Change in Control (as such term is defined prior to such amendment); provided, however, that such an amendment or termination of the Plan may be effected, even if adopted after such a public announcement, if (a) the amendment
or termination is adopted after any plans have been abandoned to cause the event or effect the transaction which, if effected, would have constituted the Change in Control, and the event which would have constituted the Change in Control has not
occurred, and (b) within a period of six months after such adoption, no other event constituting a Change in Control has occurred, and no public announcement of a proposed transaction which would constitute a Change in Control has been made,
unless thereafter any plans to effect the Change in Control have been abandoned and the event which would have constituted the Change in Control has not occurred. 

The amendments prohibited by this Section VII(b) include any amendment which is executed (or would otherwise become effective) at the request
of a third party who effectuates a Change in Control or any amendment which, if adopted and given effect would: 
  

	 	(i)	For any individual who is an Eligible Employee as of the Change in Control, deprive such individual of coverage under the Plan as in effect at the time of such amendment; 

 

	 	(ii)	Limit eligibility for or reduce the amount of any Severance Pay Benefit; or 

  

	 	(iii)	Amend Section VII, IX, or the definitions of the terms “Change in Control” or “Successors and Assigns” in Section XVII of the Plan. 

No person shall take any action that would directly or indirectly have the same effect as any of the prohibited amendments or termination
described in this Section VII(b). 
  

	(c)	No Change in Payment Schedule. 

 Under no circumstances shall any amendment or termination of
the Plan affect or modify the payment schedule in effect for a Participant’s Severance Pay Benefit in a manner which would otherwise result in an impermissible acceleration or deferral of that payment schedule under Code Section 409A. 

 

	(d)	Amendments to Comply with Section 409A of the Code. 

 Notwithstanding any provision of
Section VII to the contrary, the Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify this Plan as may be necessary to ensure the Severance Pay Benefits provided
under this Plan are made in a manner that qualifies for exemption from, or otherwise complies with, Section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that the Company makes no representation that the Severance Pay Benefit provided under this Plan
will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to the Severance Pay Benefits provided under this Plan. 

To the extent there is any ambiguity as to whether any provision of this Plan would otherwise contravene one or more requirements or
limitations of Code Section 409A applicable to the Plan, such provision shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that does not result in a violation of the applicable requirements or limitations of Code Section 409A and the Treasury
Regulations thereunder.

 VIII. NON-ALIENATION OF BENEFITS 

To the full extent permitted by law and except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Severance Pay Benefit shall be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale,
transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be void. 
 IX. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 

The Plan shall be binding upon the Company, its Successors and Assigns. Notwithstanding that the Plan may be binding upon such Successors and Assigns by
operation of law, the Company shall require any Successor or Assign to expressly assume and agree to be bound by the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be if no succession or assignment had taken place.

written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial 90-day period. This notice of extension shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the
Plan Administrator expects to render its decision on the claim for benefits. The claimant shall be permitted to appeal such denial in accordance with the Review Procedure set forth below. 

 

	(c)	Review Panel. 

 The Plan Administrator shall appoint a “Review Panel,” consisting of
three or more individuals who may (but need not) be employees of the Company. The Review Panel shall be the named fiduciary that has the authority to act with respect to any appeal from a denial of benefits. 

  
 11 

	(d)	Requests for a Review. 

 Any person whose claim for benefits is denied in whole or in part, or
such person’s duly authorized representative, may appeal from such denial by submitting a request for a review of the claim to the Review Panel within 60 days after receiving written notice of such denial from the Plan Administrator. A request

representative may submit written comments, documents, records and other information related to the claim. The Review Panel will consider all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the claimant or the claimant’s duly
authorized representative relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The claimant will be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and
copies of all documents, records or other information (all of which must not be privileged) relevant to the benefit claim. The Review Panel may require the claimant to submit such additional facts, documents or other material as it may deem
necessary or appropriate in making its review. 
  

	(e)	Decision on Review. 

 The Review Panel shall act on each request for review and notify the
claimant within 60 days after receipt thereof unless special circumstances require an extension of time, up to an additional 60 days, for processing the request. If such an extension for review is required, written notice of the extension shall be
furnished to the claimant within the initial 60-day period. The Review Panel shall give prompt, written notice of its decision to the claimant and to the Plan Administrator. In the event that the Review Panel confirms the denial of the claim for
benefits, in whole or in part, such notice shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, the specific reasons for such denial, specific references to the Plan provisions on which the decision is based, a statement that

the denial of benefits to do so at the claimant’s own expense. 
  

	(g)	Exhaustion of Remedies. 

 No legal action for benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless
and until the claimant: 
  

	 	(i)	has submitted a written claim for benefits in accordance with Section XII(a); 

  
 12

 XV. STATEMENT OF ERISA RIGHTS 

As a participant in this Plan (which is a welfare plan sponsored by the Company), you are entitled to the following rights and protection under ERISA: 

 

	(a)	Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrator’s office and at other specified locations such as work sites, all Plan documents, collective bargaining agreements and copies of all documents filed by the Plan
with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure of the Employee Benefits Security Administration. 

  

	(b)	Obtain copies of all Plan documents and other Plan information upon written request to the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. 

 

	(c)	In addition to creating rights for Plan Participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people responsible for the operation of the employee benefit Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called “fiduciaries” of
the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan Participants and Beneficiaries. 

  
 13 

	(d)	No one, including your employer, your union, nor any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a Plan benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. If
your claim for a Plan benefit is denied in whole or in part, you must receive a written explanation of the reason for the denial. You have the right to have the claim reviewed and reconsidered. 

 

	(e)	Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request materials from the Plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a federal court. In such a case,
the court may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the Plan Administrator. If you have a
claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or federal court. If it should happen that the Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your
rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay
these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. 

  

	(f)	If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Plan Administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, you should contact the nearest office of the
Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W.,
Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also obtain certain publications about your rights and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Employee Benefits Security Administration.

 17 

	(z)	“Separation from Service” means the Participant’s cessation of Employee status. For purposes of the Plan, a Separation from Service shall be determined in accordance with the following standards:

 A Separation from Service will not be deemed to have occurred if the Participant continues to provide services to one or
more members of the Employer Group (whether as a common-law employee or non-employee consultant or contractor) at an annual rate that amounts to 50% or more of the services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding 36-months of
employment with the Employer Group (or if employed by the Employer Group less than 36 months, such lesser period). 
 A Separation from
Service will be deemed to have occurred if the Participant’s service with the Employer Group (whether as a common-law employee or non-employee consultant or contractor) is permanently reduced to an annual rate that amounts to 20% or less of the
services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding 36 months of employment with the Employer Group (or if employed by the Employer Group less than 36 months, such lesser period). 

If such services are permanently reduced to more than 20% but less than 50% of the average over the prior 36 months (or lesser period), a
Separation from Service may be deemed to occur based on the facts and circumstances, including, but not limited to, whether the Participant is treated as an employee for other purposes, such as participation in employee benefit programs, and whether
the Participant is able to perform services for other unrelated entities. 
 In addition to the foregoing, a Separation from Service will not
be deemed to have occurred while the Participant is on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six months or any longer period for which such Participant’s right to
reemployment with one or more members of the Employer Group is provided either by statute or contract; provided, however, that in the event of a Participant’s leave of absence due to any medically determinable physical or mental
impairment that can be expected to result in death or to last for a continuous period of not less than six (6) months and that causes such individual to be unable to perform his or her duties as an Employee, no Separation from Service shall be
deemed to occur during the first twenty-nine (29) months of such leave. If the period of leave exceeds six (6) months (or twenty-nine (29) months in the event of disability as indicated above) and the Participant’s right to
reemployment is not provided either by statute or contract, then such Participant will be deemed to have a Separation from Service on the first day immediately following the expiration of such six (6)-month or
twenty-nine (29)-month period. 
 This definition of
Separation from Service shall not be interpreted as limiting the right of the Company or any other member of the Employer Group to terminate the employment of an individual while on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, to
the extent permissible under applicable law. 
  

	(aa)	“2004 Equity Incentive Plan” means the Gilead Sciences, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time or any successor to such provision. 

 

	(bb)	“Year of Continuous Service” means the number of days (as defined by the Company in written rules adopted by it from time to time) of Continuous Service, divided by 365. A Participant’s Severance Pay
Benefit calculation shall include both full and any partial Years of Continuous Service.

Section IV(a)(i) in connection with a Separation from Service occurring either within the 24-month period following a Change in Control or within the applicable period, as specified in the definition thereof in Section 11(d) of the 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan, that precedes such Change in Control (the “Change in Control Period”), the Severance Pay Benefit shall be: 
  

	 	1.	Three times annual Regular Earnings plus three times the average of the actual bonuses paid to the Participant (or otherwise earned but deferred in whole in part) under the Company’s annual bonus plan applicable to
the Participant for the three fiscal years (or such fewer number of complete fiscal years of employment) immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Participant’s employment terminates. 

 

	 	2.	A lump sum cash payment (the “Lump Sum Health Care Payment”) in an amount equal to thirty-six (36) times the amount by which (i) the monthly cost that would be payable by the Participant, as
measured as of the date of his or her termination of employment, to obtain continued medical care coverage for the Participant and his or her spouse and eligible dependents under the Company’s employee group health plan, pursuant to their COBRA
rights, at the level in effect for each of them on the date of such termination of employment exceeds (ii) the monthly amount payable at such time by a similarly-situated executive whose employment with the Company has not terminated to obtain
group health care coverage at the same level. The Company shall pay the Lump Sum Health Care Payment to the Participant on the first regularly scheduled pay date for the Participant’s former job and location that occurs within the sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of his or her Separation from Service on which both (A) the Release delivered by the Participant in accordance with Section IV(a)(i)(2) of the Plan is effective following
the expiration of the applicable maximum review and revocation periods and (B) any waiver required of the Participant pursuant to Section IV(a)(ii)(3) of the Plan has been delivered on a timely basis to the Company and in the case of such
waiver the thirty (30)-day maximum delivery period has expired, or on such subsequent date thereafter as the Company may determine in its sole discretion, but in no event shall such payment be made later than
the last day of such sixty (60)-day period, provided (i) such Release and waiver have each been delivered to the Company within the required time period following the Participant’s Separation from Service, as set forth in Section IV,
(ii) such Release has not been revoked and (iii) should such sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service extend over two calendar years, then the Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall be made
during the portion of that sixty (60)-day period that occurs in the second calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall be subject to the deferred payment provisions of Section V(d) of the Plan, to the extent
such payment exceeds the applicable dollar amount under section 402(g)(1)of the Code for the year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs. The Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall constitute taxable income to the Participant and
shall be subject to the Company’s collection of all applicable withholding taxes, and the Participant shall receive only the portion of the Lump Sum Health Care Payment remaining after such withholding taxes have been collected. It shall be the
sole responsibility of the Participant and his or her spouse and eligible dependents to obtain actual COBRA coverage under the Company’s group health care plan. 

  
 20 

	 	3.	Outplacement services for 12 months following the date of Separation from Service. 

  

	 	4.	A Participant shall not be eligible for the additional payment described in this section A.4 of Appendix A unless (i) the Participant was, as of January 28, 2010, employed in a position with the Company that
is covered under Appendices A through C to the Plan, (ii) within six (6) months after March 8, 2016, an event or proposed transaction described in the first sentence of Section VII.(b) of the Plan is publicly announced, and
(iii) the Participant otherwise is entitled to a Severance Pay Benefit pursuant to this section A. With respect to any Participant who is eligible for the additional payment described in this section A.4, the Severance Pay Benefit shall include
an additional payment in an amount such that after payment by the Participant of all taxes (including, without limitation, any income and employment taxes and any interest and penalties imposed thereon) and the excise tax imposed on such additional
payment pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, there remains an amount equal to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code on the Severance Pay Benefit and any other payment in the nature of compensation that constitutes a
“parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code (the “Excise Tax”). All calculations required pursuant to this provision shall be performed by an independent registered public company accounting firm retained by the
Company for such purpose and shall be based on information supplied by the Company and the Participant. For any parachute payments occurring at the time of the Change in Control, the relevant calculations shall be completed within ten
(10) business days after the effective date of such Change in Control, and for any parachute payments attributable to the Participant’s Separation from Service, the calculations shall be completed within ten (10) business days after
the effective date of such Separation from Service. Such calculations shall be conclusive and binding on all interested persons. The additional payment resulting from such calculations shall be made to the Participant within ten (10) business
days following the completion of such calculations or (if later) at the time the related Excise Tax is remitted to the appropriate tax authorities. In the event that the Participant’s actual Excise Tax liability is determined by a Final
Determination to be greater than the Excise Tax liability taken into account for purposes of the additional payment initially made to the Participant pursuant to the preceding provisions of this section A.4, then within forty-five (45) days
following that Final Determination, the Participant shall notify the Company of such determination, and a new Excise Tax calculation based upon that Final Determination shall be made within the next forty-five (45) days. The Company shall make
a supplemental tax gross up payment (as calculated in the same manner as the initial payment hereunder) to the Participant attributable to that excess Excise Tax liability within ten (10) business days following the completion of the applicable
calculations or (if later) at the time such excess tax liability is remitted to the appropriate tax authorities. In the event that the Participant’s actual Excise Tax liability is determined by a Final Determination to be less than the Excise
Tax liability taken into account for purposes of the additional payment made to him or her pursuant to the preceding provisions of this section A.4, then the Participant shall refund to the Company, promptly upon receipt, any federal or state tax
refund attributable to the Excise Tax overpayment. For purposes of this section A.4, a “Final Determination” means an audit adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service that is either (i) agreed to by both the Participant and the
Company (such agreement by the Company to be not unreasonably withheld) or (ii) sustained by a court of competent jurisdiction in a decision with which the Participant and the Company concur or with respect to which the period within which an
appeal may be filed has lapsed without a notice of appeal being filed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the additional payment and any supplemental payments under this section A.4 shall be subject to the hold-back provisions of Section V(d) of the Plan, to the extent those payments relate to any amounts and benefits provided hereunder that constitute parachute payments attributable to the Participant’s
Separation from Service. In addition, such additional payment and any supplemental payments shall in no event be made later than the end of the calendar year that follows the calendar year in which the related taxes are remitted to the appropriate
tax authorities, or such other specified time or schedule that may be permitted under Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 21 

	 	5.	If a Participant is not eligible for the additional payments provided by section A.4 above, then any Severance Pay Benefit to which he or she becomes entitled under the Plan as a result of a Separation from Service
during the Change in Control Period, together with any other payment in the nature of compensation to which he or she may become entitled that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, shall be subject to the
following limitation (the “Benefit Limitation”): 

  

	 	a.	If the parachute value of the Severance Pay Benefit and the other payments, as calculated in accordance with the parachute payment determination and valuation provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the
applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, does not exceed in the aggregate 110% of the safe harbor amount allowable under Section 280G of the Code without triggering a parachute payment under Section 280G(b)(2)(A) of the Code (the
“Safe Harbor Amount”), then the aggregate amount of the Severance Pay Benefit and such other payments shall be reduced to the extent (if any) necessary to assure that they do not exceed the Safe Harbor Amount. 

 

	 	b.	If the parachute value of the Severance Pay Benefit and the other payments, as calculated in accordance with the parachute payment determination and valuation provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the
applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, exceeds in the aggregate 110% of the Safe Harbor Amount, then the Severance Pay Benefit and any other amounts in the nature of a parachute payment under Code Section 280G payable to the Participant
shall be limited to the greater of (x) the Safe Harbor Amount or (y) the amount that yields the Participant the greatest after-tax aggregate amount of such Severance Pay Benefit and other payments due the Participant after
taking into account any excise tax imposed on those amounts under Code Section 4999. 

  

	 	c.	All calculations required under this section A.5 shall be made by an independent registered public accounting firm (the “Auditor”) selected by the Company, and the fees of such Auditor shall be paid by
the Company. Unless the Participant agrees otherwise in writing, the Auditor selected by the Company shall be a nationally recognized United States registered public accounting firm that has not during the two years preceding the date of its
selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company. The required calculations shall be provided to the Participant and the Company within ten (10) business days following the Participant’s Separation from Service during the Change in
Control Period under circumstances entitling the Participant to a Severance Pay Benefit under the Plan and within ten (10) days following the occurrence of any other event triggering a parachute payment for the Participant. 

 

	 	d.	 If a reduction in the payments or benefits constituting a parachute payment under Code Section 280G is required pursuant to the Benefit
Limitation imposed under this section A.5, then such reduction shall be effected in the following order: first, the Participant’s salary and bonus continuation payments under section A.1 of this Appendix A to the Plan shall be reduced (with
such reduction to be applied pro-rata to each such payment and without any change to the payment dates), then the amount of the Participant’s Lump Sum Health Care 

  
 22 

	 	
Payment shall be reduced, and finally any accelerated vesting of the Participant’s equity awards under one or more of the Company’s stock compensation plans, including (without
limitation) the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and any predecessor plans, shall be reduced (based on the amount of the parachute payment calculated for each such award in accordance with the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 280G), with such
reduction to occur in the same chronological order in which those awards were made. 

  

	B.	Severance Pay Benefit. 

 If a Severance Pay Benefit becomes payable under Section IV(a)(i) after
completion of six or more months of Continuous Service in connection with a subsequent Separation from Service occurring at any time other than within the Change in Control Period as defined in paragraph A of the Appendix A, then the Severance Pay
Benefit shall be: 
  

	 	1.	Two times annual Regular Earnings plus two times the average of the actual bonuses paid to the Participant (or otherwise earned but deferred in whole in part) under the Company’s annual bonus plan applicable to the
Participant for the three fiscal years (or such fewer number of complete fiscal years of employment) immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Participant’s employment terminates. 

 

	 	2.	 A lump sum cash payment (the “Lump Sum Health Care Payment”) in an amount equal to twenty-four (24) times the amount by which
(i) the monthly cost that would be payable by the Participant, as measured as of the date of his or her termination of employment, to obtain continued medical care coverage for the Participant and his or her spouse and eligible dependents under
the Company’s employee group health plan, pursuant to their COBRA rights, at the level in effect for each of them on the date of such termination of employment exceeds (ii) the monthly amount payable at such time by a similarly-situated
executive whose employment with the Company has not terminated to obtain group health care coverage at the same level. The Company shall pay the Lump Sum Health Care Payment to the Participant on the first regularly scheduled pay date for the
Participant’s former job and location that occurs within the sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of his or her Separation from Service on which both (A) the Release delivered by the
Participant in accordance with Section IV(a)(i)(2) of the Plan is effective following the expiration of the applicable maximum review and revocation periods and (B) any waiver required of the Participant pursuant to Section IV(a)(ii)(3) of the
Plan has been delivered on a timely basis to the Company and in the case of such waiver the thirty (30)-day maximum delivery period has expired, or on such subsequent date thereafter as the Company may
determine in its sole discretion, or on such subsequent date thereafter as the Company may determine in its sole discretion, but in no event shall such payment be made later than the last day of such sixty (60)-day period, provided (i) such
Release and waiver have each been delivered to the Company within the required time period following the Participant’s Separation from Service, as set forth in Section IV, (ii) such Release has not been revoked and (iii) should such
sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service extend over two calendar years, then the Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall be made during the portion of that sixty (60)-day period that occurs in the
second calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall be subject to the deferred payment provisions of Section V(d) of the Plan, to the extent such payment exceeds the applicable dollar amount under section
402(g)(1) of the Code for the year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs. The Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall constitute taxable income to the Participant and shall be subject to the Company’s collection of all
applicable withholding taxes, and the Participant 

  
 23 

	 	
shall receive only the portion of the Lump Sum Health Care Payment remaining after such withholding taxes have been collected. It shall be the sole responsibility of the Participant and his or
her spouse and eligible dependents to obtain actual COBRA coverage under the Company’s group health care plan. 

  

	 	3.	Outplacement services for 12 months following the date of Separation from Service.

taxes and any interest and penalties imposed thereon) and the excise tax imposed on such additional payment pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, there remains an amount equal to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code
on the Severance Pay Benefit and any other payment in the nature of compensation that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code (the “Excise Tax”). All calculations required pursuant to this provision
shall be performed by an independent registered public company accounting firm retained by the Company for such purpose and shall be based on information supplied by the Company and the Participant. For any parachute payments occurring at the time
of the Change in Control, the relevant calculations shall be completed within ten (10) business days after the effective date of such Change in Control, and for any parachute payments attributable to the Participant’s Separation from
Service, the calculations shall be completed within ten (10) business days after the effective date of such Separation from Service. Such calculations shall be conclusive and binding on all interested persons. The additional payment resulting
from such calculations shall be made to the Participant within ten (10) business days following the completion of such calculations or (if later) at the time the related Excise Tax is remitted to the appropriate tax authorities. In the event
that the Participant’s actual Excise Tax liability is determined by a Final Determination to be greater than the Excise Tax liability taken into account for purposes of the additional payment initially made to the Participant pursuant to the
preceding provisions of this section A.4, then within forty-five (45) days following that Final Determination, the Participant shall notify the Company of such determination, and a new Excise Tax calculation based upon that Final Determination
shall be made within the next forty-five (45) days. The Company shall make a supplemental tax gross up payment (as calculated in the same manner as the initial payment hereunder) to the Participant attributable to that excess Excise Tax
liability within ten (10) business days following the completion of the applicable calculations or (if later) at the time such excess tax liability is remitted to the appropriate tax authorities. In the event that the Participant’s actual
Excise Tax liability is determined by a Final Determination to be less than the Excise Tax liability taken into account for purposes of the additional payment made to him or her pursuant to the preceding provisions of this section A.4, then the
Participant shall refund to the Company, promptly upon receipt, any federal or state tax refund attributable to the Excise Tax overpayment. For purposes of this section A.4, a “Final Determination” means an audit adjustment by the Internal
Revenue Service that is either (i) agreed to by both the Participant and the Company (such agreement by the Company to be not unreasonably withheld) or (ii) sustained by a court of competent jurisdiction in a decision with which the
Participant and the Company concur or with respect to which the period within which an appeal may be filed has lapsed without a notice of appeal being filed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the additional payment and any
supplemental payments under this section A.4 shall be subject to the hold-back provisions of Section V(d) of the Plan, to the extent those payments relate to any amounts and benefits provided hereunder that constitute parachute payments attributable
to the Participant’s Separation from Service. In addition, such additional payment and any supplemental payments shall in no event be made later than the end of the calendar year that follows the calendar year in which the related taxes are
remitted to the appropriate tax authorities, or such other specified time or schedule that may be permitted under Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 31 

	 	5.	A Participant shall only be eligible for the additional payments provided by section A.4 above, if such Participant is, as of January 28, 2010, employed in a position with the Company that is covered under
Appendices A through C to the Plan. If the Participant does not meet such eligibility standard, then any Severance Pay Benefit to which he or she becomes entitled under the Plan as a result of a Separation from Service during the Change in Control
Period, together with any other payment in the nature of compensation to which he or she may become entitled that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, shall be subject to the following limitation (the
“Benefit Limitation”): 

  

	 	a.	If the parachute value of the Severance Pay Benefit and the other payments, as calculated in accordance with the parachute payment determination and valuation provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the
applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, does not exceed in the aggregate 110% of the safe harbor amount allowable under Section 280G of the Code without triggering a parachute payment under Section 280G(b)(2)(A) of the Code (the
“Safe Harbor Amount”), then the aggregate amount of the Severance Pay Benefit and such other payments shall be reduced to the extent (if any) necessary to assure that they do not exceed the Safe Harbor Amount. 

 

	 	b.	If the parachute value of the Severance Pay Benefit and the other payments, as calculated in accordance with the parachute payment determination and valuation provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the
applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, exceeds in the aggregate 110% of the Safe Harbor Amount, then the Severance Pay Benefit and any other amounts in the nature of a parachute payment under Code Section 280G payable to the Participant
shall be limited to the greater of (x) the Safe Harbor Amount or (y) the amount that yields the Participant the greatest after-tax aggregate amount of such Severance Pay Benefit and other payments due the Participant after
taking into account any excise tax imposed on those amounts under Code Section 4999. 

  

	 	c.	All calculations required under this section A.5 shall be made by an independent registered public accounting firm (the “Auditor”) selected by the Company, and the fees of such Auditor shall be paid by
the Company. Unless the Participant agrees otherwise in writing, the Auditor selected by the Company shall be a nationally recognized United States registered public accounting firm that has not during the two years preceding the date of its
selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company. The required calculations shall be provided to the Participant and the Company within ten (10) business days following the Participant’s Separation from Service during the Change in
Control Period under circumstances entitling the Participant to a Severance Pay Benefit under the Plan and within ten (10) days following the occurrence of any other event triggering a parachute payment for the Participant. 

 

	 	d.	 If a reduction in the payments or benefits constituting a parachute payment under Code Section 280G is required pursuant to the Benefit
Limitation imposed under this section A.5, then such reduction shall be effected in the following order: first, the Participant’s salary and bonus continuation payments under section A.1 of this Appendix C to the Plan shall be reduced (with
such reduction to be applied pro-rata to each such payment and without any change to the payment dates), then the amount of the Participant’s Lump Sum Health 

  
 32 

	 	
Care Payment shall be reduced, and finally any accelerated vesting of the Participant’s equity awards under one or more of the Company’s stock compensation plans, including (without
limitation) the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and any predecessor plans, shall be reduced (based on the amount of the parachute payment calculated for each such award in accordance with the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 280G), with such
reduction to occur in the same chronological order in which those awards were made. 

  

	B.	Severance Pay Benefit for Vice Presidents with at least Six Months of Continuous Service. 

 For
Vice Presidents who have completed six or more months of Continuous Service at the time they become eligible for a severance benefit under Section IV (a)(i), if the Severance Pay Benefit becomes payable in connection with a Separation from Service
occurring at any time other than the Change in Control Period as defined in paragraph A of this Appendix C, then the Severance Pay Benefit shall be: 
  

	 	1.	1.0 times annual Regular Earnings. 

  

	 	2.	A lump sum cash payment (the “Lump Sum Health Care Payment”) in an amount equal to twelve (12) times the amount by which (i) the monthly cost that would be payable by the Participant, as

rights, at the level in effect for each of them on the date of such termination of employment exceeds (ii) the monthly amount payable at such time by a similarly-situated executive whose employment with the Company has not terminated to obtain
group health care coverage at the same level. The Company shall pay the Lump Sum Health Care Payment to the Participant on the first regularly scheduled pay date for the Participant’s former job and location that occurs within the sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of his or her Separation from Service on which both (A) the Release delivered by the Participant in accordance with Section IV(a)(i)(2) of the Plan is effective following
the expiration of the applicable maximum review and revocation periods and (B) any waiver required of the Participant pursuant to Section IV(a)(ii)(3) of the Plan has been delivered on a timely basis to the Company and in the case of such
waiver the thirty (30)-day maximum delivery period has expired, or on such subsequent date thereafter as the Company may determine in its sole discretion, but in no event shall such payment be made later than

(ii) such Release has not been revoked and (iii) should such sixty (60)-day period measured from the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service extend over two calendar years, then the Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall be made
during the portion of that sixty (60)-day period that occurs in the second calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall be subject to the deferred payment provisions of Section V(d) of the Plan, to the extent
such payment exceeds the applicable dollar amount under section 402(g)(1) of the Code for the year in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs. The Lump Sum Health Care Payment shall constitute taxable income to the Participant
and shall be subject to the Company’s collection of all applicable withholding taxes, and the Participant shall receive only the portion of the Lump Sum Health Care Payment remaining after such withholding taxes have been collected. It shall be
the sole responsibility of the Participant and his or her spouse and eligible dependents to obtain actual COBRA coverage under the Company’s group health care plan.
