to time by the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company or such other officer of the Company or one of its subsidiaries that the CEO in his discretion may from time to time designate (the “Designated Officer,” who shall

Executive is entitled to any such bonus and to determine the amount of the bonus.  The amount of Executive’s bonus may be determined in part based on Executive’s performance with respect to certain goals established by the Company and
attainment by the Company of its planned financial objectives for the bonus period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no bonus is guaranteed to Executive.  Any bonus is subject to the approval of the CEO, Designated Officer, or the
Compensation Committee of the Board, as appropriate.  The Company retains the authority to review, grant, deny or revise any bonus in its sole discretion.  To be eligible to receive a bonus, Executive must remain in employment with the

benefits and incentives which may be in effect from time to time and provided by the Company to employees at levels similar to the Executive.
           3.          Proprietary Information and Inventions.

activities so long as such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder. Executive will not during his employment with the Company publicly disparage the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or their respective
past or present products, officers, directors, employees or agents.
                        4.2          Investments and

publicly traded company.
                        4.3         
 Non-Competition.  During his employment by the Company, except on behalf of the Company, Executive will not directly or indirectly, whether as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, proprietor, associate, representative,

any agreement with any third party except in accordance with an agreement between the Company and any such third party.  During Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive may use, in the performance of his duties, all information
generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to his own and all information which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain.

that such benefits and incentives of all other executive officers of the Company are similarly reduced; (iii) any material diminution of the Executive’s duties and responsibilities, taken as a whole, excluding for this purpose (A) a diminution

benefits other than payment of accrued salary and PTO and such other benefits as expressly required in such event by applicable law or the terms of applicable benefit plans.

 (a)     All determinations required to be made under this Section 7.3, including whether and when any Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment, and the assumptions to be utilized in
arriving at such determinations, shall be made by the Accountants (as defined below), which shall provide Executive and the Company with detailed supporting calculations with respect to such Gross-Up Payment within thirty (30) days of the receipt of
notice from Executive or the Company that Executive has received or will receive a Payment.  For the purposes of this Section 7.3, the “Accountants” shall mean the Company’s independent certified public accounting firm serving
immediately prior to the Change of Control (or other change in ownership or effective control, or change in ownership of a substantial portion of the assets, of a corporation, as defined in Section 280G of the Code) with respect to which such
determination is being made.  In the event that the Accountants are also serving as the accountants, auditors or consultants for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control (or other change in ownership or effective control,
or change in ownership of a substantial portion of the assets, of a corporation, as defined in Section 280G of the Code), the Company shall appoint another nationally recognized independent certified public accounting firm, reasonably acceptable to
Executive, to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the “Accountants” hereunder).  All fees and expenses of the Accountants shall be borne solely by the Company. 

                                     
 (b)     For the purposes of determining whether any of the Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax, such Payments will be treated as “parachute payments” within the
meaning of section 280G of the Code, and all “parachute payments” in excess of the “base amount” (as defined under Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) of Executive shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless and except to
the extent that, in the opinion of the Accountants, such Payments (in whole or in part) either do not constitute “parachute payments” or represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered (within the meaning of section
280G(b)(4) of the Code) in excess of the “base amount,” or such “parachute payments” are otherwise not subject to such Excise Tax.
                                     
 (c)     For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest applicable marginal rate of federal income taxation for the calendar year
in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made and to pay any applicable state and local income taxes at the highest applicable marginal rate of taxation for the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made, net of the maximum reduction in
federal income taxes which could be obtained from the deduction of such state or local taxes if paid in such year (determined without regard to limitations on deductions based upon the amount of Executive’s adjusted gross income); and to have
otherwise allowable deductions for federal, state and local income tax purposes at least equal to those disallowed because of the inclusion of the Gross-Up Payment in Executive’s adjusted gross income.
                                     
 (d)     Any determination by the Accountants shall be binding upon the Company and Executive.  As a result of uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial
determination by the Accountants hereunder, it is possible that the Gross-Up Payment made will have been an amount less than the Company should have paid pursuant to this Section 7.3 (the “Underpayment”).  In the event that the
Company exhausts its
 7.

 
  remedies pursuant to Section 7.3(f) and Executive is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Underpayment shall be
promptly paid by the Company to or for Executive’s benefit.
                                     
 (e)     Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of a Gross-Up Payment.
 Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable after Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid.  Executive
shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which Executive gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes, interest and/or penalties with respect
to such claim is due).  If the Company notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that the Company desires to contest such claim, Executive shall:  (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the
Company relating to such claim; (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, engaging legal representation with respect to such
claim by an attorney selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive; (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim; and (iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to
such claims; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify
Executive for and hold Executive harmless from, on an after-tax basis, any Excise Tax or income, employment or other taxes (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of all related
costs and expenses. 
                                     
 (f)     Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.3, the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at the Company’s sole option, may pursue or forgo any
and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at the Company’s sole option, either direct Executive to pay the amount claimed
and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the
Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify
Executive for and hold Executive harmless from, on an after-tax basis, any Excise Tax or income, employment or other taxes (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed
income with respect to such advance (including as a result of any forgiveness by the Company of such advance); provided, further, that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to the payment of taxes, interest and penalties for
the taxable year of Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due shall be limited solely to such contested amount.  Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to
which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.
 8.

 
                                      
 (g)     The Gross-Up Payments provided for in this Section 7.3 shall be paid to Executive not later than the date upon which the severance benefits payable to Executive under Section 4.3 of Exhibit A, attached
hereto, are due; provided, however, that if the amounts of such Gross-Up Payments cannot be finally determined by the Accountants on or before such day, the Company shall pay to Executive on such day an estimate, as determined in good faith
by the Company, of the minimum amount of such Gross-Up Payments and shall pay the remainder of such Gross-Up Payments (together with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) not later than 30 days after the amount thereof
can be determined by the Accountants.  In the event that the amount of the estimated payments exceeds the amount subsequently determined by the Accountants to have been due to the Executive, such excess shall constitute a loan by the Company to
Executive, payable not later than 30 days after such determination and demand by the Company (together with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code).
           8.          Nonsolicitation.  While employed by the Company, and for one (1) year following the
termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive agrees not to solicit, attempt to solicit, induce, or otherwise cause any employee or independent contractor of the Company to terminate his or her employment or contractual
relationship in order to become an employee or independent contractor to or for Executive or any other person or entity.
           9.          Release.  In exchange for the severance compensation and benefits provided under this
Agreement to which Executive would not otherwise be entitled, Executive shall enter into and execute a release substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Release”) upon Executive’s termination of employment. 
Unless the Release is executed by Executive and delivered to the Company within twenty-one (21) days (forty-five (45) days in the event of a group termination) after the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall
not receive any severance benefits provided under this Agreement, acceleration, if any, of Executive’s Options as provided in this Agreement shall not apply and Executive’s Options in such event may be exercised following the date of
Executive’s termination only to the extent provided under their original terms in accordance with the applicable stock option plan and option agreements.
           10.       General Provisions.
                       10.1          Notices.  Any
notices provided hereunder must be in writing and shall be deemed effective upon personal delivery (including, personal delivery by facsimile transmission) or the third day after mailing by first class mail, to the Company at its primary office
location and to Executive at his address as listed on the Company payroll (which address may be changed by written notice).
                       10.2          Severability. 
Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any
applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, and such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be
 9.

 
  reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction so as to render it valid and enforceable consistent with the intent of the
parties insofar as possible.
                       10.3          Waiver.  If either
party should waive any breach of any provisions of this Agreement, he or it shall not thereby be deemed to have waived any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
                       10.4          Entire
Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, constitute the final, complete, and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between Executive and the Company regarding the
subject matter hereof and supersede any prior agreement, promise, representation, or statement, written or otherwise, between Executive and the Company with regard to this subject matter. This Agreement is entered into without reliance on any
promise, representation, statement or agreement other than those expressly contained or incorporated herein, and it cannot be modified or amended except in a writing signed by Executive and a duly authorized officer of the Company.

                      10.5          Counterparts. 
This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, any one of which need not contain signatures of more than one party, but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement.
                       10.6          Headings.  The
headings of the sections hereof are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof nor to affect the meaning thereof.
                       10.7          Successors and
Assigns.  This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive, the Company and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators, except that Executive may not assign any of
his duties hereunder and he may not assign any of his rights hereunder without the written consent of the Company, which shall not be withheld unreasonably.
                       10.8          Attorneys’
Fees.  If either party hereto brings any action to enforce his or its rights hereunder, the prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover his or its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with
such action. 
                       10.9          Arbitration.  To
provide a mechanism for rapid and economical dispute resolution, Executive and the Company agree that any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action, in law or equity, arising from or relating to this Agreement (including the Release) or its
enforcement, performance, breach, or interpretation, will be resolved, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final, binding, and confidential arbitration held in Orange County, California and conducted by Judicial Arbitration & Mediation
Services/Endispute (“JAMS”), under its then-existing Rules and Procedures.  Nothing in this Section 10.9 or in this Agreement is intended to prevent either Executive or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent
irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration.
 10.

 
                        10.10        Remedies.  Executive’s
duties under Section 8 and the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement shall survive termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.  Executive acknowledges that a remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach
by Executive of the provisions of these sections and the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement would be inadequate, and that such a breach would cause irreparable harm to the Company; and Executive therefore agrees that the
Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in case of any such breach or threatened breach.
                       10.11        Governing Law.  All
questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement will be governed by the law of the State of California as applied to contracts made and to be performed entirely within California.
           In Witness Whereof, the parties have executed this Agreement effective as of the Effective Date above written.

  2.

 
 Exhibit B
 RELEASE AGREEMENT
 I
understand that my position with Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated effective _______________ (the “Separation Date”).  The Company has agreed that if I choose to sign this Release, the Company will,
within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date of this Release,  pay me certain severance benefits (minus the standard withholdings and deductions) pursuant to the terms of the Key Employee Agreement (the “Agreement”) entered into
as of ______________, 2002, between myself and the Company, and any agreements incorporated therein by reference.  I understand that I am not entitled to such severance benefits unless I sign this Release.  I further understand that,
regardless of whether I sign this Release, the Company will pay me all of my accrued salary and paid time off through the Separation Date, to which I am entitled by law.
 In consideration for the
severance benefits I am receiving under the Agreement, I hereby release the Company and its officers, directors, agents, attorneys, employees, shareholders, parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates (“Releasees”) from any and all claims,
liabilities, demands, causes of action, attorneys’ fees, damages, or obligations of every kind and nature, whether they are now known or unknown, arising at any time prior to the date I sign this Release.  This general release includes,
but is not limited to:  all federal and state statutory and common law claims, claims related to my employment or the termination of my employment or related to breach of contract, tort, wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment,
defamation, fraud, wages or benefits, or claims for any form of equity or compensation.  Notwithstanding the release in the preceding sentence, I am not releasing any right of indemnification I may have for any liabilities and costs of defense
(including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from my actions within the course and scope of my employment with the Company.
 In releasing claims unknown to me at present, I
am waiving all rights and benefits under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, and any law or legal principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction:  “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
 If I am forty (40) years of age or
older as of the Separation Date, I acknowledge that I am knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights I may have under the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (“ADEA”).  I also acknowledge
that the consideration given for the waiver in the above paragraph is in addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled.  I have been advised by this writing, as required by the ADEA that:  (a) my waiver and release do not
apply to any claims that may arise after my signing of this Release; (b) I should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release; (c) I have twenty-one (21) days (forty-five (45) days in the event of a group termination) within which to
consider this Release (although I may choose to voluntarily execute this Release earlier); (d) I have seven (7) days following the execution of this release to revoke the Release; and (e) this Release will not be effective until the eighth day after
this Release has been signed both by me and by the Company (“Effective Date”).
 I acknowledge that I remain bound by the Invention Assignment and Confidential Nondisclosure Agreement which I
signed in connection with my employment (“Invention Agreement”) and that the provisions of the Invention Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. In accordance with my existing and continuing obligations under the Invention
Agreement, I have returned to the Company all materials required to be returned pursuant to the Invention Agreement, as well as any other Company property in my possession.  In consideration for the severance benefits I am receiving hereunder,
I agree that I will reasonably cooperate with the Company for ninety (90) days after the Separation Date to assure the smooth transition of pending matters and to answer questions which may arise from

 
  time to time regarding my former duties and responsibilities.  Effective as of the Separation Date, I resign any and all
offices and directorships with the Company and any of its affiliates, and will execute all documents reasonably requested by the Company or its affiliates to effectuate such resignations.  Further, I agree that I will not hereafter disparage
the Company or any of the Releasees, either orally or in writing, to any person or entity.  The Company agrees that its officers and directors will not disparage me, either orally or in writing, to any person or entity.
