                              W I T N E S S E T H:

      WHEREAS, the Company and Executive entered into that certain Employment
Agreement dated as of July 15, 2003 (the "Employment Agreement"), pursuant to
which, among other things, the Company hired the Executive to be one of its
senior officers;

      WHEREAS, the Company and Executive have now agreed to various amendments
to the Employment Agreement;

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements hereafter
set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      1. Amendment of Section 7 of Employment Agreement. Section 7 of the
Employment Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following
new Sections 7 and 7A:

      "7. CHANGE OF CONTROL.

            (a) Definition. A "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have taken
      place if:

                        (i) any person or entity, including a "group" as defined
      in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, other than the
      Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary thereof, or any employee benefit plan
      of the Company or any of its subsidiaries becomes the beneficial owner of
      Company securities having 35% or more of the combined voting power of the
      then outstanding securities of the Company that may be cast for the
      election of directors of the Company (other than as a result of the
      issuance of securities initiated by the Company in the ordinary course of
      business);

                        (ii) individuals who, as of the date of this Amendment,
      were members of the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to
      constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; provided that
      any individual who becomes a director after such date whose election or
      nomination for election by the Company's shareholders was approved by
      two-thirds of the members of the Incumbent Board (other than an election
      or nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in
      connection with an actual or threatened "election contest" relating to the
      election of the

<PAGE>

      directors of the Company (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 under the
      Securities Exchange Act of 1934), "tender offer" (as such term is used in
      Section 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or a proposed
      transaction described in clause (iii) below) shall be deemed to be members
      of the Incumbent Board;

                        (iii) as the result of, or in connection with, any cash
      tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination, sale of
      assets or contested election, or any combination of the foregoing
      transactions, the holders of all the Company's securities entitled to vote
      generally in the election of directors of the Company immediately prior to
      such transaction constitute, following such transaction, less than a
      majority of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities
      of the Company or any successor corporation or entity entitled to vote
      generally in the election of the directors of the Company or such other
      corporation or entity after such transactions; or

                        (iv) the Company sells all or substantially all of the
      assets of the Company.

            (b) Effect of Change of Control. In the event that within one (1)
      year following a Change of Control, the Company terminates Executive
      Without Cause or Executive terminates employment for Good Reason (and for
      purposes of the definition of "Good Reason" as used in this paragraph
      7(b), the following two circumstances shall also constitute Good Reason in
      addition to the three circumstances described in Section 5(d): (i) any
      adverse change by Company in the Executive's position or title in effect
      immediately prior to such Change of Control, whether or not any such
      change has been approved by a majority of the members of the Board; and
      (ii) the assignment to Executive, over his reasonable objection, of any
      duties materially inconsistent with his status immediately prior to such
      Change of Control or a substantial adverse alteration in the nature of his
      responsibilities), Executive shall be entitled to: (i) the payment of
      three (3) times Executive's Base Salary for the year in which such
      termination shall occur; (ii) the payment of three (3) times Executive's
      Annual Bonus for the preceding year; (iii) any unpaid portion of any
      Annual Bonus for prior calendar years, accrued and unpaid vacation pay,
      unreimbursed expenses incurred pursuant to Section 4(a) or (b) and any
      other benefits owed to Executive pursuant to any written employee benefit
      plan or policy of the Company; (iv) the portion of restricted stock that
      is free from restrictions as of the date of termination and the
      acceleration and immediate release of all restrictions from all restricted
      stock grants that are subject to restrictions as of the date of
      termination; and (v) the vested portion of Executive's Stock Options and
      the acceleration and immediate vesting of any unvested portion of
      Executive's Stock Options. Executive shall have two (2) years from the
      date of such termination to exercise all vested Stock Options.

      7A. EXCISE TAX REIMBURSEMENT. In connection with or arising out of a
Change in Control of the Company, in the event Executive shall be subject to the
tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Excise Tax") in respect of any
payment or distribution by the Company or any other person or entity to or for
Executive's benefit, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, or whether prior to or
following any termination of Executive other than Termination for Cause or By
Executive

                                       2

without Good Reason (a "Payment"), the Company shall pay to Executive
an additional amount. The additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment") shall be
equal to the Excise Tax, together with any federal, state and local income tax,
employment tax and any other taxes associated with this payment such that
Executive incurs no out-of-pocket expenses associated with the Excise Tax.
Provided, however, nothing in this Section shall obligate the Company to pay
Executive for any federal, state or local income taxes imposed upon Executive by
virtue of a Payment. For purposes of determining whether any of the Payments
will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax the
following will apply:

            (a) Determination of Parachute Payments. Any payments or benefits
      received or to be received by Executive in connection with a Change in
      Control of the Company or his termination of employment other than by the
      Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason shall be treated as
      "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code,
      and all "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section
      280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the
      opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company's independent auditors and
      acceptable to Executive such other payments or benefits (in whole or in
      part) do not constitute parachute payments, or such excess parachute
      payments (in whole or in part) represent reasonable compensation for
      services actually rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the
      Code, or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax; and

            (b) Valuation of Benefits and Determination of Tax Rates. The value
      of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be
      determined by the Company's independent auditors in accordance with
      proposed, temporary or final regulations under Section 280G(d)(3) and (4)
      of the Code or, in the absence of such regulations, in accordance with the
      principles of Section 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. For purposes of
      determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall be deemed
      to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income
      taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made
      and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation
      in the state and locality of Executive's residence on the date of
      termination of his employment, net of the applicable reduction in federal
      income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and
      local taxes.

            (c) Repayment of Gross-Up by Executive and Possible Additional
      Gross-Up by Company. In the event that the amount of Excise Tax
      attributable to Payments is subsequently determined to be less than the
      amount taken into account hereunder at the time of termination of
      Executive's employment, he shall repay to the Company at the time that the
      amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is finally determined the portion
      of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such reduction (including the
      portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to the Excise Tax, employment
      tax and federal (and state and local) income tax imposed on the Gross-Up
      Payment being repaid by Executive if such repayment results in a reduction
      in Excise Tax and/or a federal (and state and local) income tax deduction)
      plus interest on the amount of such repayment at the rate provided in
      Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code. In the event that the Excise Tax
      attributable to Payments is determined to exceed the amount taken into
      account hereunder at the time of

                                       3
<PAGE>

      the termination of Executive's employment (including by reason of any
      payment the existence or amount of which cannot be determined at the time
      of the Gross-Up Payment), the Company shall make an additional gross-up
      payment in respect of such excess (plus any interest and/or penalties
      payable by Executive with respect to such excess) at the time that the
      amount of such excess is finally determined."

      2. Miscellaneous Provisions.

                  (a) The Employment Agreement is hereby, and shall henceforth
be deemed to be, amended, modified, and supplemented in accordance with the
provisions hereof, and the respective rights, duties, and obligations under the
Employment Agreement shall hereinafter be determined and enforced under the
Employment Agreement, as amended, subject in all respects to such amendments,
modifications, and supplements, and all terms and conditions of this Amendment.

                  (b) Except as expressly set forth in this Amendment, all
agreements, covenants, undertakings, provisions, stipulations, and promises
contained in the Employment Agreement are hereby ratified, readopted, approved,
and confirmed and remain in full force and effect.

                  (c) Except as provided by this Amendment, or unless the
context or use indicates another or different meaning or intent, the words and
terms used in this Amendment shall have the same meaning as in the Employment
Agreement.

                  (d) This Amendment may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but
all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be
duly executed as of the date first above written.

                                 FIRST AMENDMENT
                     TO RETIREMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT

         THIS FIRST AMENDMENT (the "Amendment") to Retirement and Consulting
Agreement between King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Employer") and James R. Lattanzi
("Executive") dated April 1, 2005 (the "Agreement") between Employer and
Executive is dated and effective as of November 4, 2005. All capitalized terms
contained herein that are not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to
them in the Agreement.

         WHEREAS, Employer and Executive desire to extend the terms of the
Executive's provision of consulting services under the terms of the Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions
and covenants contained herein, and intending to be legally sound hereby, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. Employer shall continue to retain Executive and Executive shall
continue to serve as consultant to Employer during the period beginning on the
earlier to expire of the Initial Period and the Remaining Period (whether upon
the exercise by Employer of its rights under Section 2.01(b)(ii) of the
Agreement or otherwise), and ending six (6) months from the date of such
expiration (the "Extension Period"). During the Extension Period, Executive
shall provide such hours of consulting services as may be requested by Employer
in its discretion, provided that the weekly average hours provided during such
period shall not exceed ten (10) hours. During the Extension Period, Executive
shall assist and advise Employer and its employees with respect to matters in
which Executive was involved or had knowledge from his services as an employee
of Employer. In rendering such consulting services, Executive shall report to
the Chief Executive Officer of Employer (the "CEO") or to such other person as
may be designated from time to time by the CEO. Executive shall perform his
services hereunder (1) primarily at the corporate headquarters of Employer in
Bristol, Tennessee, and at Employer's offices in Princeton, New Jersey, (2) from
time to time, at Employers request, at locations related to litigation or other
legal matters involving or affecting Employer or its affiliates and (3) at such
other locations as may be mutually agreed from time to time by Employer and
Executive. Executive acknowledges that his duties and responsibilities hereunder
will require him to travel on business from time to time, and for such purposes
Employer shall make its corporate aircraft reasonably available to Executive.
Any time spent by Executive in connection with such travel shall be credited
against the consulting services Executive is required to provide during the
Extension Period pursuant to this Amendment. Executive may perform his
consulting services hereunder by telephone or email in appropriate circumstances
reasonably acceptable to Employer. Executive shall serve Employer in good faith
and to the best of Executive's abilities in connection with the performance of
his consulting services hereunder.

         2. Section 2.02 of the Agreement shall be amended as follows: (a)
insert the phrase "(iii) during the Extension Period, $[*****]" in the first
sentence immediately following "$[*****]"; and (b) insert the phrase "and the
Extension Period" in the second sentence immediately following "during the
Initial Period".

         3. All terms of the Agreement not modified by the terms of this
Amendment shall remain unchanged and apply to the Executive's provision of
consulting services and the Employer's obligation to make payment for such
services during the Extension Period.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Amendment as of
the date first above written.
