	1.
	Interest.

Roper Technologies, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum described above (the “Original Interest Rate”). Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from August 28, 2018. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing March 15, 2019. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

		
	2.
	Paying Agent.

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as paying agent. The Issuer may change any paying agent without notice to the Holders.

		
	3.
	Indenture; Defined Terms.

This Note is one of the 3.650% Notes due 2023 issued under the indenture, dated as of August 4, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Issuer and the Trustee, and established pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate, dated August 28, 2018, issued pursuant to Sections 2.01, 2.03 and 2.04 thereof (together, the “Indenture”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture.

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”) as in effect on the date on which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, except for terms as described under the section titled “6. Optional Redemption” (in which case this Note shall govern), the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

		
	4.
	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 thereafter. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Issuer may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof for a period of fifteen (15) days before the mailing of a notice of redemption, nor need the Issuer register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption, in whole or in part.

		
	5.
	Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting together as a single class). Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note.

		
	6.
	Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at its option, at any time or from time to time prior to August 15, 2023 (one month prior to maturity date), on at least 30 days’, but not more than 60 days’, prior notice mailed to the registered address of each Holder of the Notes (any such date of redemption, a “Redemption Date”). The redemption price will be equal to the greater of:

(i)    100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed;

or

(ii)    the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments discounted to the Redemption Date, on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

At any time on or after August 15, 2023 (one month prior to the maturity date), the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. 

Notice of any redemption of Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including any equity offering, an incurrence of indebtedness or a transaction involving a change of control of the Issuer) may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of its obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that such Notes matured on August 15, 2023) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Issuer obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.
“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, appointed by the Issuer. 
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (i) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and their respective affiliates, and their respective successors and (ii) one other nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) as selected by the Issuer.  If any of the foregoing or their affiliates shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Issuer shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Issuer, of the bid and ask prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such Redemption Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Note that would be due after the related Redemption Date but for the redemption (assuming, for this purpose, that such Notes matured on August 15, 2023).  If that Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date 

with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on the Note will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the Note to the Redemption Date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolation (on a day count basis) of the interpolated Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.
On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest. On or before the Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with a paying agent or the Trustee money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, the Notes to be redeemed on that date.
If the Issuer chooses to redeem less than all of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed and in accordance with the procedures of the depositary; or, if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.
No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Issuer has deposited with the paying agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable redemption price.
		
	7.
	Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, unless the Issuer shall have exercised its right pursuant to Section 6 hereof to redeem the Notes, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (in a multiple of $1,000 provided that the remaining principal amount, if any, following such repurchase shall be at least $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof), of such Holder’s Notes (a “Change of Control Offer”) at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be repurchased, to, but excluding, the repurchase date (the “Change of Control Payment”).
Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall cause a notice to be mailed to Holders of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to 

repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of applicable securities laws and regulations in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event.
On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful:
		
	(i)
	accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

		
	(ii)
	deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

		
	(iii)
	deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased by the Issuer.

The paying agent shall promptly mail, to each Holder who properly tendered Notes, the repurchase price for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each such Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. If such third party terminates or defaults its Change of Control Offer, the Issuer shall be required to make a Change of Control Offer treating the date of such terminating or default as though it were the date of the Change of Control Triggering Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.
The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provision of any such securities laws or regulations conflicts with this Section 7, the Issuer shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 7 by virtue of any such conflict.
For purposes of this Section 7, the following terms will be applicable:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following: (1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties or assets and those of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more persons, other than to the Issuer or one of its subsidiaries; (2) the consummation of any transaction including, without limitation, any merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation the result of which is that any person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Issuer’s Voting Stock; (3) the Issuer consolidates with, or merge with or into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Issuer, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Issuer or of such other person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the Issuer’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or (4) the adoption of a plan relating to our liquidation or dissolution. For the purposes of this definition, “person” and “beneficial owner” have the meanings used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.
“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement of the Change of Control or the Issuer’s intention to effect a Change of Control and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control, which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change. Unless at least one Rating Agency is providing a rating for the Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade during that Trigger Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.
“Investment Grade” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s or BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Issuer.
“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and it successors.
“Rating Agencies” means (a) each of Moody’s and S&P; and (b) if any of the Rating Agencies ceases to provide rating services to issuers or investors, and no Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred or is occurring, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act that is selected by the Issuer (as certified by a resolution of the Board of Directors) as a replacement for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be, and that is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and its successors.
“Voting Stock” of any specified person as of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.
		
	8.
	Defaults and Remedies.

If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such Event of Default (voting together as a single class), shall by written notice, require the Issuer to repay immediately the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) affected (voting together as a single class) to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

		
	9.
	Authentication.

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.

		
	10.
	Abbreviations and Defined Terms.

	1.
	Interest.

Roper Technologies, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum described above (the “Original Interest Rate”). Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from August 28, 2018. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing March 15, 2019. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

		
	2.
	Paying Agent.

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as paying agent. The Issuer may change any paying agent without notice to the Holders.

		
	3.
	Indenture; Defined Terms.

This Note is one of the 4.200% Notes due 2028 issued under the indenture, dated as of August 4, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Issuer and the Trustee, and established pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate, dated August 28, 2018, issued pursuant to Sections 2.01, 2.03 and 2.04 thereof (together, the “Indenture”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture.

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”) as in effect on the date on which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, except for terms as described under the section titled “6. Optional Redemption” (in which case this Note shall govern), the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

		
	4.
	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 thereafter. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Issuer may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof for a period of fifteen (15) days before the mailing of a notice of redemption, nor need the Issuer register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption, in whole or in part.

		
	5.
	Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting together as a single class). Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note.

		
	6.
	Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at its option, at any time or from time to time prior to June 15, 2028 (three months prior to maturity date), on at least 30 days’, but not more than 60 days’, prior notice mailed to the registered address of each Holder of the Notes (any such date of redemption, a “Redemption Date”). The redemption price will be equal to the greater of:

(i)    100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed;

or

(ii)    the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments discounted to the Redemption Date, on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

At any time on or after June 15, 2028 (three months prior to the maturity date), the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. 

Notice of any redemption of Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including any equity offering, an incurrence of indebtedness or a transaction involving a change of control of the Issuer) may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of its obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that such Notes matured on June 15, 2028) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Issuer obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.
“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, appointed by the Issuer. 
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (i) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and their respective affiliates, and their respective successors and (ii) one other nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) as selected by the Issuer.  If any of the foregoing or their affiliates shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Issuer shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Issuer, of the bid and ask prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such Redemption Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Note that would be due after the related Redemption Date but for the redemption (assuming, for this purpose, that such Notes matured on June 15, 2028).  If that Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date with 

respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on the Note will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the Note to the Redemption Date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolation (on a day count basis) of the interpolated Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.
On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest. On or before the Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with a paying agent or the Trustee money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, the Notes to be redeemed on that date.
If the Issuer chooses to redeem less than all of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed and in accordance with the procedures of the depositary; or, if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.
No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Issuer has deposited with the paying agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable redemption price.
		
	7.
	Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, unless the Issuer shall have exercised its right pursuant to Section 6 hereof to redeem the Notes, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (in a multiple of $1,000 provided that the remaining principal amount, if any, following such repurchase shall be at least $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof), of such Holder’s Notes (a “Change of Control Offer”) at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be repurchased, to, but excluding, the repurchase date (the “Change of Control Payment”).
Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall cause a notice to be mailed to Holders of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to 

repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of applicable securities laws and regulations in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event.
On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful:
		
	(i)
	accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

		
	(ii)
	deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

		
	(iii)
	deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased by the Issuer.

The paying agent shall promptly mail, to each Holder who properly tendered Notes, the repurchase price for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each such Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. If such third party terminates or defaults its Change of Control Offer, the Issuer shall be required to make a Change of Control Offer treating the date of such terminating or default as though it were the date of the Change of Control Triggering Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.
The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provision of any such securities laws or regulations conflicts with this Section 7, the Issuer shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 7 by virtue of any such conflict.
For purposes of this Section 7, the following terms will be applicable:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following: (1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties or assets and those of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more persons, other than to the Issuer or one of its subsidiaries; (2) the consummation of any transaction including, without limitation, any merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation the result of which is that any person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Issuer’s Voting Stock; (3) the Issuer consolidates with, or merge with or into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Issuer, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Issuer or of such other person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the Issuer’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or (4) the adoption of a plan relating to our liquidation or dissolution. For the purposes of this definition, “person” and “beneficial owner” have the meanings used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.
“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement of the Change of Control or the Issuer’s intention to effect a Change of Control and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control, which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change. Unless at least one Rating Agency is providing a rating for the Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade during that Trigger Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.
“Investment Grade” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s or BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Issuer.
“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and it successors.
“Rating Agencies” means (a) each of Moody’s and S&P; and (b) if any of the Rating Agencies ceases to provide rating services to issuers or investors, and no Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred or is occurring, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act that is selected by the Issuer (as certified by a resolution of the Board of Directors) as a replacement for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be, and that is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and its successors.
“Voting Stock” of any specified person as of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.
		
	8.
	Defaults and Remedies.

If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such Event of Default (voting together as a single class), shall by written notice, require the Issuer to repay immediately the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) affected (voting together as a single class) to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

		
	9.
	Authentication.

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such 

numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

The Performance Shares shall be subject to vesting based on (i) the level of attainment of the performance goals set forth in Exhibit A and (ii) the Participant’s continued Employment, subsection to clauses (d)-(f) below, in each case in accordance with the terms of Exhibit A and this Section 3.  Any Performance Shares that do not vest in accordance with Exhibit A and this Section 3, based on the level of attainment of the performance goals and any continuing Employment requirement, shall be immediately forfeited and returned to the Company for no consideration as of the first to occur of the Regular Vesting Date, the Termination Date, or any Change in Control, without any further action by the Company (the “Forfeiture Restriction”).
(b)Termination of Employment.  Subject to clauses (d) - (f) below, if the Participant incurs a Termination prior to the Regular Vesting Date (as defined on Exhibit A), (i) the Participant’s Performance Shares shall cease vesting as of the Termination Date and (ii) all unvested Performance Shares shall be immediately forfeited and returned to the Company for no consideration as of the Termination Date without any further action by the Company.  
(c)Release from Escrow.  The Performance Shares that vest, and with respect to which the Forfeiture Restriction lapses, in accordance with Exhibit A and this Section 3, shall be released from escrow (if applicable) and delivered to the Participant, subject to collection of applicable Withholding Taxes in accordance with Section 7.  
(d)Death.  If the Participant incurs a Termination due to death, the EPS Target Number of Performance Shares and the RTSR Target Number of Performance Shares, or the number of Converted Restricted Shares (as defined in Exhibit A) to the extent applicable, shall, to the extent not then vested or previously forfeited or cancelled, become fully vested and the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to such vested Performance Shares.  Any Performance Shares that do not vest pursuant to this clause (d) shall immediately be forfeited to the Company by the Participant for no consideration upon the Participant’s death.  
(e)Disability/Retirement.  Subject to clause (f) below, if the Participant incurs a Termination due to Disability or Retirement, the Participant shall continue to vest in the Performance Shares as if the Participant had continued in Employment through the Regular Vesting Date, subject to the attainment of the performance goals set forth in Exhibit A, and subject to the Participant’s compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement and the Participant’s execution, delivery and non-revocation of a waiver and release of claims in favor of the Company and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries in a form prescribed by the Company on or prior to the 60th day following the Termination Date; provided, however, in the case of a Termination due to Retirement, the number of Performance Shares, if any, that shall vest shall be the number of Qualified Performance Shares (as determined in accordance with Exhibit A) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the number of days between and including the first day of the Performance Period and the date the Participant incurs a Termination due to Retirement and the denominator of which is 1095 (the “Retirement Fraction”), rounded up to the nearest whole number.  Subject to clause (f) below, if the Participant incurs a Termination due to Retirement, upon the Regular Vesting Date, the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to the Retirement Fraction of the Qualified Performance Shares, and the Participant will immediately forfeit the remaining unvested Performance Shares to the Company for no consideration.  If the Participant incurs a Termination due to Disability, upon the Regular Vesting Date, the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to the Qualified Performance Shares, and the Participant will immediately forfeit the remaining unvested Performance Shares to the Company for no consideration.    

Exhibit 10.40

(f)Change in Control.  In the event of a Change in Control in which the Performance Shares are not cashed out in accordance with Section 2(b) of the Exhibit A:
(i)if the Participant incurs a Termination by the Service Recipient without Cause (other than due to death or Disability) prior to the Regular Vesting Date, the number of Converted Restricted Shares shall, to the extent not then vested or previously forfeited or cancelled, become fully vested and the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to the Converted Restricted Shares; and
(ii)if the Participant incurs a Termination due to Retirement, the Retirement Fraction of the number of Converted Restricted Shares shall, to the extent not then vested or previously forfeited or cancelled, become fully vested and the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to such portion of the Converted Restricted Shares.  
Any Performance Shares subject to this clause (f) that do not vest pursuant to this clause (f) shall immediately be forfeited to the Company by the Participant for no consideration upon the Participant’s Termination.  
(g)Recapitalization.  Any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including cash paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which is by reason of any Recapitalization distributed with respect to the Performance Shares shall be immediately subject to the Forfeiture Restriction, but only to the extent the Performance Shares are at the time covered by such Forfeiture Restriction.  Appropriate adjustments to reflect such distribution shall be made to the number and/or class of Performance Shares subject to this Agreement and to the Forfeiture Restriction in order to reflect the effect of any such Recapitalization upon the Company’s capital structure.

4.Transfer Restrictions.

(a)Non-Transferability.  The Performance Shares that are subject to the Forfeiture Restriction shall not be transferable by the Participant except to Permitted Transferees in accordance with Section 14(b) of the Plan.  Whenever the word “Participant” is used in any provision of this Agreement under circumstances where the provision should logically be construed to apply to executors, the administrators or the person or persons to whom the Performance Shares may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution in accordance with Section 14 of the Plan, the word “Participant” shall be deemed to include such person or persons.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Plan, no assignment or transfer of the Performance Shares, or of the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall vest in the assignee or transferee any interest or right in this Agreement or the Plan whatsoever, but immediately upon such assignment or transfer the Performance Shares shall be forfeited and returned to the Company for no consideration. 

(b)Transferee Obligations.  Each Permitted Transferee must, as a condition precedent to the validity of a transfer of the Performance Shares, acknowledge in writing to the Company that such person is bound by the provisions of this Agreement and that the transferred Performance Shares are subject to forfeiture to the same extent such shares would be so subject if retained by the Participant.

(c)Restrictive Legend.  The stock certificates for the Performance Shares shall be endorsed with, or in the event the Performance Shares are uncertificated the pertinent book-entry records shall note, a restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth in Section 9(e) of the Plan.

5.Repayment of Proceeds; Clawback Policy.  If a Restrictive Covenant Violation occurs or the Company discovers after a Termination that grounds existed for Cause at the time thereof, then, in addition to any other remedy available (on a non-exclusive basis), (a) the Performance Shares shall be forfeited and returned to the Company for no consideration and/or (b) the Participant shall be required to pay to the Company, within ten (10) business days of the Company’s request to the Participant therefor, an amount equal to the aggregate after-tax proceeds (taking into account all amounts of tax that would be recoverable upon a claim of loss for payment of such proceeds in the year of repayment) the Participant received upon the sale or other disposition of, or distributions in respect of, the Performance Shares.  Any reference in this Agreement to grounds existing for a Termination for Cause shall be determined without regard to any notice period, cure period, or other procedural delay or event required prior to finding of or termination with, Cause.  The Performance Shares and all proceeds thereof shall be subject to the Company’s Clawback Policy (to comply with applicable laws or with the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines or other 

Exhibit 10.40

similar requirements), as in effect from time to time, to the extent the Participant is a director or “officer” as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act.  
6.Restrictive Covenants.

(a)Restrictive Covenants.  To the extent that the Participant is a party to an employment or similar agreement with the Company or one of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries containing non-competition, non-solicitation, non-interference or confidentiality restrictions (or two or more such restrictions), those restrictions and related enforcement provisions under such agreement shall govern and the following provisions of this Section 6 shall not apply. 
(b)Competitive Activity.  To the extent a Participant lives in a jurisdiction where restrictive covenants are void as against public policy, this Section 6(b) shall be considered deleted from and therefore not part of this Agreement.  
(i)The Participant shall be deemed to have engaged in “Competitive Activity” if, during the period commencing on the Date of Grant and ending on the date that is 12 months after the Termination Date (the “Restricted Activity Period”), the Participant, whether on the Participant’s own behalf or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person (as defined below), directly or indirectly, violates any of the following prohibitions: 
(I)    During the Restricted Activity Period, the Participant will not, whether on the Participant’s own behalf or on behalf of or in conjunction with any individual, person, firm, part-nership, joint venture, association, corporation or other business organization, entity or enterprise whatsoever (“Person”), directly or indirectly, solicit or assist in soliciting in competition with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, the business of any client or prospective client:
		
	(1)
	with whom the Participant had personal contact or dealings on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates during the one-year period preceding the Termination Date;

		
	(2)
	with whom employees reporting to the Participant have had personal contact or dealings on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates during the one-year period preceding the Termination Date; or

		
	(3)
	for whom the Participant had direct or indirect responsibility during the one-year period preceding the Termination Date.

		
	(II)
	During the Restricted Activity Period, the Participant will not directly or indirectly:

		
	(1)
	engage in any business that competes with the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, including, but not limited to, providing formulation/dose form technologies and/or contract services to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, over-the-counter and vitamins/minerals/supplements companies related to pre-clinical and clinical development, formulation, analysis, manufacturing and/or packaging and any other technology, product  or service of the type developed, manufactured or sold by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including, without limitation, any other business that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates have plans to engage in as of the Termination Date) in any geographical area where the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates conducts business (a “Competitive Business”);

		
	(2)
	enter the employ of, or render any services to, any Person (or any division or controlled or controlling Affiliate of any Person) who or which engages in a Competitive Business;

		
	(3)
	acquire a financial interest in, or otherwise become actively involved with, any Competitive Business, directly or indirectly, as an individual, partner, shareholder, officer, director, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or

Exhibit 10.40

		
	(4)
	interfere with, or attempt to interfere with, any business relationship (whether formed before, on or after the Date of Grant) between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and any customer, client, supplier, or investor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Participant may, directly or indirectly own, solely as an investment, securities of any Person engaged in any Competitive Business that are publicly traded on a national or regional stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market if the Participant (i) is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such Person and (ii) does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person.  Any such qualifying ownership shall not be deemed to be engaging in Competitive Activity or a Restrictive Covenant Violation for purposes of this Agreement.
(III)    During the Restricted Activity Period, the Participant will not, whether on the Participant’s own behalf or on behalf of or in conjunction with any Person, directly or indirectly:
		
	(1)
	solicit or encourage any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to leave such Employment; or

		
	(2)
	hire any such employee who was employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates as of the Termination Date or who left the employment of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates coincident with, or within six (6) months prior to or after, the Termination Date; provided, however, that this restriction shall cease to apply to any employee who has not been employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates for at least six (6) months.

(IV)    During the Restricted Activity Period, the Participant will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or encourage to cease to work with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates any consultant then under contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates.
(ii)It is expressly understood and agreed that although the Participant and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this Section 6(b) to be reasonable, if a final judicial determination is made by a court of competent jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in this Agreement is an unenforceable restriction against the Participant, the provisions of this Agreement shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such maximum extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be enforceable.  Alternatively, if any court of competent jurisdiction finds that any restriction contained in this Agreement is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained in this Section 6(b).

(c)Confidentiality

(i)The Participant will not at any time (whether during or after the Participant’s Employment) (x) retain or use for the benefit, purposes or account of the Participant or any other Person; or (y) disclose, divulge, reveal, communicate, share, transfer or provide access to any Person outside the Company and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries (other than its professional advisors who are bound by confidentiality obligations), any non-public, proprietary or confidential information --including without limitation trade secrets, know-how, research and development, software, databases, inventions, processes, formulae, technology, designs and other intellectual property, information concerning finances, investments, profits, pricing, costs, products, services, vendors, customers, clients, partners, investors, personnel, compensation, recruiting, training, advertising, sales, marketing, promotions, government and regulatory activities and approvals -- concerning the past, current or future business, activities and operations of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and/

Exhibit 10.40

or any third party that has disclosed or provided any of same to the Company on a confidential basis (“Confidential Information”) without the prior written authorization of the Board.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6(c)(i), “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that (w) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6(c); (x) is already known by the recipient of the disclosed information at the time of disclosure as evidenced by the recipient’s written records, (y) becomes available to the recipient of the disclosed information on a non-confidential basis from a source that is entitled to disclose it on a non-confidential basis, or (z) was or is independently developed by or for the recipient of the information without reference to Confidential Information, as evidenced by the recipient’s written records.

(iii)Except as required by law, the Participant will not disclose to anyone, other than the Participant’s immediate family and legal or financial or tax advisors or lender, each of whom the Participant agrees to instruct not to disclose, the existence or contents of this Agreement (unless this Agreement shall be publicly available as a result of a regulatory filing made by the Company or one of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries); provided, that the Participant may disclose to any prospective future employer the provisions of Section 6 of this Agreement provided such future employer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of such terms.

(iv)Upon Termination, the Participant shall (x) cease and not thereafter commence use of any Confidential Information or intellectual property (including without limitation, any patent, invention, copyright, trade secret, trademark, trade name, logo, domain name or other source indicator) owned or used by the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (y) immediately destroy, delete, or return to the Company, at the Company’s option, all originals and copies in any form or medium (including memoranda, books, papers, plans, computer files, letters and other data) in the Participant’s possession or control (including any of the foregoing stored or located in the Participant’s office, home, laptop or other computer, whether or not Company property) that contain Confidential Information or otherwise relate to the business of the Company or one of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, except that the Participant may retain only those portions of any personal notes, notebooks and diaries that do not contain any Confidential Information; and (z) notify and fully cooperate with the Company regarding the delivery or destruction of any other Confidential Information of which the Participant is or becomes aware.

(d)Equitable Relief.  Notwithstanding the remedies set forth in Section 5 above and notwithstanding any other remedy that would otherwise be available to the Company at law or in equity, the Company and the Participant agree and acknowledge that if an actual or threatened Restrictive Covenant Violation occurs, the Company will be entitled to an injunction and/or other equitable relief restraining the Participant from the Restrictive Covenant Violation without the necessity of posting a bond or proving actual damages.

(e)Permitted Conduct.  Nothing in this Agreement, including clause (c) (Confidentiality), restricts or prohibits the Participant from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, providing confidential information to, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or from filing a claim or assisting with an investigation directly with a self-regulatory authority or a governmental agency or entity, including without limitation the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General (collectively, the “Regulators”), or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of state or federal law or regulation.  This Agreement does not limit the Participant’s right to receive an award from any Regulator that provides awards for providing information relating to a potential violation of law.  The Participant does not need the prior authorization of the Company to engage in conduct protected by this clause, and the Participant does not need to notify the Company that the Participant has engaged in such conduct.  Please take notice that federal law provides criminal and civil immunity to federal and state claims for trade secret misappropriation to an individual who discloses a trade secret to the individual’s attorney, a court, or a governmental official in certain, confidential circumstances that are set forth at 18 U.S.C. §§ 1833(b)(1) and 1833(b)(2), related to the reporting or investigation of a suspected violation of the law, or in connection with a lawsuit for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of the law.  

Exhibit 10.40

7.Withholding of Taxes.  The Company shall have the right to require the Participant to pay to the Company the amount of any Withholding Taxes in respect of the Performance Shares or to take whatever action it deems necessary to protect the interests of the Company in respect of such Withholding Tax liabilities, in accordance with this Section 7.

(a)The Participant may elect to satisfy all or a portion of the obligation set forth in this Section 7 for Withholding Taxes in one or more of the following forms:
(i)in cash or check made payable to the Company; 
(ii)by requesting that the Company withhold from the Performance Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant (in accordance with Section 3) or otherwise cause the Company to record the forfeiture of a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value as of the date on which such obligation for Withholding Taxes arises, not in excess of the amount of such Withholding Taxes determined by using the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates, or such other amount or rate determined by the Company  in its reasonable discretion (the “Share Withholding Method”); or 
(iii)subject to compliance with applicable law and the Company’s Securities Trading Policy as then in effect, from proceeds of a same-day or next-day sale of a portion of the Performance Shares effected by the Company’s designated broker.
(b)In the absence of a full satisfaction of the obligation set forth in this Section 7 within five (5) days of the date when the Forfeiture Restriction shall have lapsed, or such earlier date, if any, when the Company shall be required to have satisfied its obligation under applicable law with respect to Withholding Taxes, the Participant’s acceptance of the Performance Shares and this Agreement shall constitute the Participant’s authorization to the Company’s designated broker to effect the sale contemplated by Section 7(a)(iii) in accordance with this Section 7(b).

8.Notice.  Every notice or other communication relating to this Agreement between the Company and the Participant shall be in writing, and shall be mailed to or delivered to the party for whom it is intended at such address as may from time to time be designated by it in a notice mailed or delivered to the other party as  provided in this Agreement; provided that, unless and until some other address is so designated, all notices or communications by the Participant to the Company shall be mailed or delivered to the Company at its principal executive office, to the attention of the Company’s General Counsel, and all notices or communications by the Company to the Participant may be given to the Participant personally or may be mailed to the Participant at the Participant’s last known address, as reflected in the Company’s records.  Notwithstanding the above, all notices and communications between the Participant and any third-party plan administrator shall be mailed, delivered, transmitted or sent in accordance with the procedures established by such third-party plan administrator and communicated to the Participant from time to time. 

9.No Right to Continued Employment.  Neither the Plan nor this Agreement nor the granting of the Performance Shares that are the subject of this Agreement shall be construed as giving the Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or in any consulting relationship to, the Company or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.  Further, the Company, or, if different, the Service Recipient, may at any time dismiss the Participant or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

10.No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, including but not limited to any advice relating to the application of Code Section 83 to the Performance Shares or compliance with the requirements of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor is the Company making any recommendation regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock.  The Participant is hereby advised to consult with the Participant’s own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

Exhibit 10.40

11.Data Privacy.  The Participant hereby explicitly and without reservation consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Participant’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other Restricted Stock grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Service Recipient, the Company and its other Affiliates or Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

The Participant understands that the Company and the Service Recipient may hold certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Performance Shares or any other entitlement to shares of Common Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  
The Participant understands that Data will be transferred to Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future, which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.  The Participant understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country.  The Participant understands that the Participant may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipient of the Data by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative.  The Participant authorizes the Company, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC and any other possible recipient that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.  The Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan.  The Participant understands that the Participant may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendment to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents in this Section 11, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Participant’s local human resources representative.  Further, the Participant understands that the Participant is providing on a purely voluntary basis the consents described in this Agreement.  If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant later seeks to revoke the Participant’s consent, the Participant’s Employment and career with the Service Recipient will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Performance Shares or other equity awards to the Participant or administer or maintain such awards.  Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.  For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that the Participant may contact the Participant’s local human resources representative.
12.Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and, to the extent permitted, assigns or other Permitted Transferees of the parties to this Agreement. 

13.Waiver and Amendments.  Subject to Section 13(b) of the Plan, the Committee may waive any condition or right under, amend any term of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, this Agreement, prospectively or retroactively (including after the Participant’s Termination); provided that any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of the Participant under this Agreement shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the Participant.  No waiver by either of the parties hereto of their rights hereunder shall be deemed to constitute a waiver with respect to any subsequent occurrence or transaction under this Agreement unless such waiver specifically states that it is to be construed as a continuing waiver. 

14.Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law.  For purposes of litigating any dispute 

Exhibit 10.40

that arises under this grant or this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of federal and state courts located in Somerset County, New Jersey, and hereby waive any objection to proceeding in such jurisdiction, including any objection regarding an inconvenient forum. 

15.Plan. The terms and conditions of the Plan are incorporated in this Agreement by reference.  In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Plan shall govern and control.

16.Electronic Delivery and Acceptance.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any document related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means.  The Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

17.Imposition of Other Requirements.  The Company reserves the right to impose any other requirements on the Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Performance Shares and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Participant to sign any additional agreement or undertaking that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

18.Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws.  The Participant acknowledges that he or she may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws of one or more countries, that may affect his or her ability to acquire or sell shares of Common Stock under the Plan during such times as the Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by applicable laws).  Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company securities trading policy.  The Participant is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable restriction and is advised to consult his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.

19.Entire Agreement; Miscellaneous.  This Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Performance Shares.  This Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan supersede any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Performance Shares.  The headings used in this Agreement, including without limitation Exhibit A, are for convenience only and shall not affect its interpretation.

Exhibit 10.40

Exhibit A to Catalent U.S. Performance Restricted Stock Agreement

1.Vesting.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 3 of the Agreement, provided the Participant has not incurred a Termination on or prior to the Regular Vesting Date, the Performance Shares granted under the Grant Notice to which this Agreement relates shall vest upon the date on which the Committee determines and certifies, as applicable, the attainment level of both the EPS Performance Percentage and the RTSR Performance Percentage (the “Regular Vesting Date”) with respect to the Performance Period set forth in the Grant Notice, in each case, as of the last day of the Performance Period, which determination shall be made no later than the seventy-fifth (75th) day following the end of the Performance Period.  As determined by the Committee, the number of Performance Shares, if any, in which the Participant vests (the “Qualified Performance Shares”) shall be equal to the sum of (a) the product of (i) the EPS Target Number of Performance Shares (as set forth in the Grant Notice) and (ii) the EPS Performance Percentage, plus (b) the product of (i) the RTSR Target Number of Performance Shares (as set forth in the Grant Notice) and (ii) the RTSR Performance Percentage, rounded up to the nearest whole number of Performance Shares.  Upon the Regular Vesting Date, the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to any Performance Shares that vest in accordance with this Exhibit A.  Any Performance Shares that do not become vested in accordance with this Exhibit A (to the extent not previously forfeited pursuant to Section 3 of the Agreement) shall, effective as of the Regular Vesting Date, be forfeited by the Participant without consideration.

2.Change in Control.  Notwithstanding Section 1 of this Exhibit A, the following shall apply in connection with a Change in Control:

(a)In the event of a Change in Control prior to the last day of the Performance Period, to the extent the stock of the acquiring or successor entity is publicly traded and the Performance Shares are assumed, continued or substituted, the Performance Shares shall be converted, immediately prior to the Change in Control, to a number of time-based shares of Restricted Stock equal to the sum of (A) the EPS Target Number of Performance Shares, and (B) either of the following (1) if the Change in Control occurs in the first year of the Performance Period, the RTSR Target Number of Performance Shares, or (2) if the Change in Control occurs after the first year of the Performance Period, a number of Performance Shares that would become eligible to vest based on the attainment level of the Relative Total Shareholder Return Performance Goal calculated as of a shortened Performance Period that ends on the date immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control (the “Converted Restricted Shares”).  The Converted Restricted Shares shall be eligible to vest based on the Participant’s continued Employment through the Regular Vesting Date, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 3 of the Agreement.  Provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to the Regular Vesting Date (except as provided in Section 3 of the Agreement), the Forfeiture Restriction with respect to the Converted Restricted Shares shall lapse upon the Regular Vesting Date.  Any Performance Shares that do not vest as Converted Restricted Shares pursuant to this clause (a), and any Performance Shares that do not covert into Converted Restricted Shares, shall immediately be forfeited to the Company by the Participant for no consideration.

(b)In the event of a Change in Control prior to the last day of the Performance Period, to the extent the acquiring or successor entity does not assume, continue or substitute the Performance Shares or the stock of the acquiring or successor entity is not publicly traded, the Performance Shares shall be replaced with a right to receive, within thirty (30) days following the date of the Change in Control, a cash payment equal to the sum of (i) the product of (A) the Per Share Cash Amount, multiplied by (B) the EPS Target Number of Performance Shares, and (ii) the product of (A) the Per Share Cash Amount, multiplied by (B) either of the following (1) if the Change in Control occurs in the first year of the Performance Period, the RTSR Target Number of Performance Shares, or (2) if the Change in Control occurs after the first year of the Performance Period, a number of Performance Shares that would become eligible to vest based on the attainment of the Relative Total Shareholder Return Performance Goal calculated as of a shortened Performance Period that ends on the date immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control.  The “Per Share Cash Amount” for purposes of this Section 2(b) means an amount equal to the sum of (I) the average of the closing price of the Common Stock for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control and (II) any cash dividend payable on a share of Common Stock during the 20 trading-day period described in the foregoing.

Exhibit 10.40

(c)In the event of a Change in Control on or after the last day of the Performance Period, the Forfeiture Restriction shall lapse with respect to the number of vested Qualified Performance Shares as determined in accordance with Section 1 of this Exhibit A.

(d)Any Performance Shares that do not vest or become Converted Restricted Shares, as applicable, shall immediately be forfeited without any further action by the Company or the Participant and without any payment of consideration therefor.

3.Earning Per Share Performance Goal.  For purposes of this Agreement: 

“Cumulative EPS” means the sum of the EPS for each fiscal year of the Company or portion thereof in the Performance Period.
“Earnings Per Share” or “EPS” for any period means the Company’s “adjusted net income” for such period, as publicly reported by the Company, divided by the average number of fully diluted shares of Common Stock outstanding in such period, as publicly reported by the Company. 
“EPS Performance Percentage” means the percentage as set forth in the below table, representing the performance level of attainment of the Earnings Per Share performance goal set forth in the below table.

4.Relative Total Shareholder Return Performance Goal.  For purpose of this Agreement: 

“Beginning Stock Price” means the average of the closing prices of the Common Stock or the shares of the Peer Group, as applicable, for the 20 trading days ending on the trading date immediately preceding the first day of the Performance Period.
“Ending Stock Price” means the average of the closing prices of the Common Stock or the shares of the Peer Group, as applicable, for the 20 trading days up to and including (if a trading day) the last day of the Performance Period.
“Peer Group” means the companies that comprise the S&P Composite 1500 Health Care Index.  Companies that are members of the index at the beginning of the Performance Period that subsequently cease to be listed in the index as a result of acquisitions, mergers or combinations involving such companies shall be excluded from the Peer Group.  Companies that are members of the index at the beginning of the Performance Period that subsequently file for bankruptcy during the Performance Period shall be treated as worst performers for purposes of the Relative Total Shareholder Return Performance Goal calculation.
“Relative Total Shareholder Return” or “RTSR” means the quotient equal to (i) the Ending Stock Price minus the Beginning Stock Price plus assumed reinvestment as of the ex-dividend date of ordinary and extraordinary cash dividends, if any, paid by the applicable issuer during the Performance Period, divided by (ii) the Beginning Stock Price.  Relative Total Shareholder Return expressed as a formula shall be as follows: 

Exhibit 10.40

	
			
	Relative Total Shareholder Return
	=
	(Ending Stock Price -
Beginning Stock Price +
Assumed Dividend Reinvestment)
Beginning Stock Price

The stock prices and cash dividend payments reflected in the calculation of Total Shareholder Return shall be adjusted to reflect stock splits during the Performance Period, and dividends shall be assumed to be reinvested in the relevant issuer’s shares for purposes of the calculation of Total Shareholder Return. 
“RTSR Performance Percentage” means the percentage as set forth in the below table, representing the performance level of attainment of the Relative Total Shareholder Return Performance Goal set forth in the below table.
