Exhibit 10.1

EXECUTION VERSION

     AMENDED & RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT dated as of December 31, 2011 (the “Effective
Date”), by and between HENRY SCHEIN, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and STANLEY M.
BERGMAN (“Bergman”).

     WHEREAS, Bergman is currently Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer
of the Company, and Bergman and the Company previously had entered into an Amended and Restated
Employment Agreement dated as of December 31, 2008, as subsequently amended by amendment dated as
of June 30, 2011 (the “Prior Agreement”);

     WHEREAS, the Company recognizes that Bergman has made substantial contributions to the success
of the Company over a long period of time and desires to assure the Company of Bergman’s continued
service and Bergman desires to continue to perform services for the Company; and

     WHEREAS, Bergman and the Company wish to amend and restate the Prior Agreement in the form set
forth below.

     In consideration of the agreements herein after set forth, the Company and Bergman agree as
follows:

     1. EMPLOYMENT

     1.1 CAPACITY; DUTIES. The Company hereby continues to employ Bergman as the Company’s
Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer. Bergman shall have general
supervision over the business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries, shall report and be
responsible only to, and subject to the supervision of, the Board of Directors of the Company (the
“Board of Directors”), and shall have powers and authority superior to those of any other officer
or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Board of Directors may with Bergman’s
consent, which consent may be withheld in his reasonable discretion, confer the title of President
upon another person without any diminution in the compensation or benefits payable to Bergman
hereunder. Subject to Section 6(b), Bergman may serve on the board of directors of any other
corporation, or may be involved in civic or charitable activities and may manage his personal
investments, so long as such service does not interfere with his duties to the Company or its
subsidiaries and such other corporation is not a supplier or customer of the Company and does not
engage in any business that is competitive with the business of the Company. Bergman accepts the
employment described herein and agrees to devote his full business time and effort thereto, and to
perform those duties normally attributable to the positions for which he is employed hereunder.

     1.2 EMPLOYMENT PERIOD. Bergman’s employment shall be for the period (the “Employment Period”)
commencing on the Effective Date, and ending on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2016, as such date
may be extended as provided below, or (ii) the date on which Bergman’s employment is terminated
earlier pursuant to Section 4. The Employment Period may be extended by the Company for successive
one-year periods by giving Bergman notice (an “Extension Notice”) at least six months prior to the
date that the then applicable Employment Period is to expire. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, the Employment Period shall not be

 

 

extended if Bergman, within 90 days after any Extension Notice is given, advises the Company
that he chooses not to extend the Employment Period. The date on which the Employment Period is
scheduled to expire pursuant to whichever shall be the later of the date set forth in clause (i)
above or the extended date as provided above is hereinafter referred to as the “Employment
Expiration Date.”

     2. COMPENSATION

     2.1 BASE SALARY. During the Employment Period, as compensation for Bergman’s employment
hereunder, Bergman shall receive a base salary at the rate of $1,180,000 per annum, payable in
accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices for its senior executive officers from time
to time in effect. The base salary may be increased by such amounts and at such times as shall be
determined by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
“Compensation Committee”) from time to time, in its sole discretion. (The base salary, as it may
be increased from time to time, is hereinafter referred to as the “Base Salary.”)

     2.2 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. During the Employment Period, Bergman shall be eligible to
receive, in addition to his Base Salary, incentive compensation (“Incentive Compensation”) as
follows: with respect to each year during the Employment Period, the Compensation Committee shall,
after consultation with Bergman, establish a target annual Incentive Compensation opportunity for
Bergman, to be expressed as a percentage of the Base Salary for such year, and performance criteria
consistent with such performance-based criteria as are applicable to other Company senior
management. All Incentive Compensation shall be paid as soon as practicable after the amount of
such compensation has been finally determined, and in all events during the calendar year
immediately following the calendar year with respect to which the Incentive Compensation was
earned.

     2.3 ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION. Nothing contained herein shall limit or otherwise restrict the
Board of Directors from granting to Bergman at any time and from time to time such additional
compensation as may be recommended from time to time by the Compensation Committee.

     2.4 EXPENSES. The Company shall promptly reimburse Bergman for all expenses reasonably
incurred by him in the performance of his duties under this Agreement in accordance with the
Company’s general policies and practices for senior executive officers in effect from time to time;
provided that in no event shall any such reimbursement be made later than the later of (i) the
15th day of the third month following the end of the calendar year in which the
applicable expense is incurred or (ii) the 15th day of the third month following the end
of the fiscal year in which the applicable expense is incurred.

     3. BENEFITS

     3.1 BENEFITS. During the Employment Period, Bergman shall be entitled to participate in all
benefit, welfare, perquisite, equity and other similar plans, policies and programs, in accordance
with the terms as are generally provided from time to time by the Company for its senior management
employees and for which Bergman is eligible. Unless

2

 

Bergman’s employment shall have been terminated for Cause (in the manner and as defined in
Section 4.3), during the period commencing immediately after Bergman’s termination of employment
for any reason and continuing (x) as to Bergman, for the life of Bergman, and (y) as to Bergman’s
spouse, for the life of his spouse, the Company shall continue the participation of Bergman and his
spouse in all health and medical benefit plans, policies and programs in effect from time to time
with respect to the senior executive officers of the Company and their families generally (at the
same levels and at the same cost, if any, as provided to the senior executive officers of the
Company generally immediately prior to his date of termination). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event the plan under which Bergman and his spouse were receiving health benefits immediately
prior to Bergman’s date of termination is not fully-insured or would trigger excise taxes or other
penalties on the Company if provided to Bergman and/or his spouse after Bergman’s date of
termination, then the Company shall either (A) provide health coverage to Bergman and his spouse
pursuant to a fully-insured replacement policy or (B) in lieu of such health coverage pay Bergman
(or to his spouse, as applicable, in the event of his death) annual cash payments equal to the cost
to Bergman (and/or his spouse) to obtain a replacement policy (i.e., the premium costs), as
determined on the termination date (adjusted for increase in the cost-of-living index, as defined
in Treasury regulation § 1.401(a)(9)-6, Q&A-14(b)(2)); in either case for the remaining lives of
Bergman and his spouse. In all cases, the annual cash payments described above (if applicable),
will be paid on each anniversary of Bergman’s date of termination, commencing with the one-year
anniversary of such date.

     3.2 VACATION. During each calendar year during the Employment Period, Bergman shall be
entitled to four weeks of vacation and such other number of personal days generally afforded to
senior executive officers of the Company.

     3.3 AUTOMOBILE. During the Employment Period, the Company shall provide Bergman with first
priority, non-exclusive use of a car and driver on the same basis as immediately prior to the
Effective Date. At Bergman’s option, the Company shall provide Bergman with the use of a new
automobile during the Employment Period, similarly equipped to that last provided to him under the
Prior Agreement, and shall pay the costs of fuel, maintenance, repairs and insurance. If Bergman’s
employment hereunder is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in Section 4.3), by the
Company choosing not to extend the Employment Period, upon Bergman’s Disability, by Bergman for
Good Reason pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(i), or by Bergman voluntarily pursuant to Section
4.1(c)(ii), the Company shall continue the arrangements in effect immediately prior to his
termination of employment until the second anniversary of Bergman’s date of termination. If
Bergman’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, by the Company choosing not to
extend the Employment Period, or by Bergman for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4.l(c)(i), in any
such case within two years after the date of a Change in Control, the Company shall continue the
transportation arrangements in effect immediately prior to his termination of employment until the
last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which Bergman’s date of
termination occurs, and (ii) shall pay on the second anniversary of Bergman’s date of termination a
lump sum in cash equal to the value of the applicable benefits specified in the prior sentence for
the period from the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year on which the
termination date occurs until the third anniversary of his date of termination.

3

 

     3.4 CONVERSION OF BENEFITS. During the Employment Period, Bergman shall be entitled to the
same conversion privileges (including but not limited to cash conversions) with regard to the
Company’s benefit plans, policies and programs in which Bergman is entitled to participate under
Section 3.1 as may be generally offered from time to time by the Company to its senior executive
officers; provided that in the event of a cash conversion, the payment of such cash conversion
shall be made no later than the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month following
the end of the calendar year in which the benefit is offered to senior executive officers or (ii)
the 15th day of the third month following the end of the fiscal year in which the
benefit is offered to senior executive officers.

     4. TERMINATION

     4.1 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Bergman’s employment (and the Employment Period) shall
terminate prior to the Employment Expiration Date upon the occurrence of any of the following
events:

          (a) upon Bergman’s death or Bergman’s Disability (pursuant to Section 4.2); or

          (b) (i) by action of the Company for Cause; or (ii) by action of the Board of Directors
without Cause upon 90 days’ prior written notice to Bergman; or

          (c) by Bergman (i) following the occurrence of an event that constitutes Good Reason,
as hereinafter defined, or (ii) voluntarily upon 180 days prior written notice to the
Company.

     A “Change in Control” shall be deemed to occur upon any of the following:

     (A) acquisition of “beneficial ownership” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”)) by any one “person” (as such term
is defined in Section 3(a)(9) of the Act) or by any two or more persons deemed to be one “person”
(as used in Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Act)(each referred to as a “Person”) excluding the
Company, any subsidiary of the Company and any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the
Company or any subsidiary of the Company (including any trustee of any such plan acting in his or
its capacity as trustee), of 33% or more of the combined total voting power of the then-outstanding
voting securities of the Company (the “Outstanding Voting Securities”) without the prior express
approval of the Board of Directors;

     (B) acquisition of “beneficial ownership” by any Person excluding the Company, any subsidiary
of the Company and any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company (including any trustee of any such plan acting in his or its capacity as
trustee), of more than 50% of the combined total voting power of the then Outstanding Voting
Securities;

     (C) directors elected to the Board of Directors over any 24-month period (except in the case
of a Change in Control referred to in Section 5.4(c), a twelve-month period) not nominated by the
Company’s Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee (or a committee of the Board of Directors
performing functions substantially similar to such committee) represent

4

 

30% (except in the case of a Change in Control referred to in Section 5.4(c), a majority) or
more of the total number of directors constituting the Board of Directors at the beginning of the
period, (or such nomination results from an actual or threatened proxy contest);

     (D) any merger, consolidation or other corporate combination of the Company (a “Transaction”),
other than (i) a Transaction involving only the Company and one or more of its subsidiaries, or
(ii) a Transaction immediately following which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to
the Transaction continue to be the beneficial owners of securities of the resulting entity
representing more than 50% of the voting power in the resulting entity, in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of Outstanding Voting Securities immediately prior to the
Transaction; and

     (E) upon the sale of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company, other
than (i) a distribution to stockholders, or (ii) a sale immediately following which the
stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the sale are the beneficial owners of securities
of the purchasing entity representing more than 50% of the voting power in the purchasing entity,
in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Outstanding Voting Securities
immediately prior to the Transaction.

Solely for purposes of Section 5.4(c), no Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred unless
the circumstances of such Change in Control would be treated as having resulted in the occurrence
of a “change in control event” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-3(i)(5)(i).

     A “Good Reason” event shall have occurred upon the taking of any of the following actions,
without Bergman’s written consent; provided that a Good Reason event shall not be deemed to have
occurred unless Bergman shall have given written notice to the Company specifying the Good Reason
event within 90 days of the occurrence of such event:

	 	(a)	 	a material reduction or material adverse change in Bergman’s responsibilities,
duties, positions or authority, as provided in the Agreement, including, the failure to
appoint Bergman to, or to continue Bergman in, any position to which he is required to
be appointed under this Agreement.
	 
	 	(b)	 	any failure by the Company to provide the compensation, or any failure by the
Company to provide the material benefits, agreed to be provided under this Agreement;
provided, however, that any reduction in benefits generally applicable
to senior management employees shall not constitute Good Reason;
	 
	 	(c)	 	any change in location of the Company’s principal executive offices outside of
the New York metropolitan area (which shall consist solely of New York City, Long
Island and any other location within 35 miles of the Company’s current principal
executive offices);
	 
	 	(d)	 	any failure of the Company to obtain the express assumption of this Agreement
as provided in Section 9(a) or 9(b), unless such assumption occurs by operation of law;

5

 

provided, however, that (i) a “Good Reason” event will not include acts which are
cured by the Company within 30 days from receipt by it of a written notice from Bergman identifying
in reasonable detail the act or acts constituting “Good Reason,” and (ii) if the Company has failed
to cure as provided above, a “Good Reason” event will not exist unless Bergman has thereafter given
notice of termination for Good Reason within 30 days after the earlier of the expiration of the
30-day cure period or the Company’s notice to Bergman that it will not cure such Good Reason event.

     4.2 DISABILITY. If, by reason of physical or mental disability, Bergman (i) is unable to
carry out the material duties he has agreed to carry out under this Agreement for more than 180
days in any twelve-month period or (ii) is expected to be unable to carry out his duties for such
period as certified by a Licensed Physician (“Disability”), the Employment Period shall terminate
hereunder. A “Licensed Physician” shall be any qualified physician licensed to practice medicine
in the State of New York as shall be mutually agreed by the Company and Bergman (or his
representatives), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Bergman shall submit
to an examination by a physician for purposes of the preceding provisions upon the request of the
Board of Directors. During any period of Disability prior to such termination, Bergman shall
continue to receive all compensation and other benefits provided herein as if he had not been
disabled at the time, in the amounts and in the manner provided herein, provided that the Company
shall be entitled to a credit against such amounts with regard to the amount, if any, paid to
Bergman for such period under any disability plan of the Company.

     4.3 CAUSE. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall be limited to (i) action or
omission by Bergman involving willful malfeasance or willful misconduct having a material adverse
effect on the Company (whether economically or as to reputation), (ii) Bergman being convicted of,
or pleading NOLO CONTENDERE to, a felony (other than resulting from a traffic violation or like
event) or being convicted of any other crime involving intentional dishonesty or fraud, (iii) any
other action by Bergman constituting a material breach of Section 6 of this Agreement which is not
cured within 30 days after notice from the Company. In the case of (i) above, no act or omission
by Bergman shall be considered willful if it is done or omitted in good faith and with a reasonable
belief that it was in the best interests of the Company. Termination by the Company for Cause
pursuant to (i) or (iii) above will not be effective unless the Board of Directors has voted to
terminate Bergman for Cause at a meeting of the Board of Directors called for such purpose after
Bergman has been afforded at least three days notice of the meeting and an opportunity to be heard
at a meeting of the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the Board of
Directors may suspend Bergman with pay and benefits pending such Board of Directors meeting.

     5. CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION

     5.1 DEATH. If Bergman’s employment hereunder is terminated by reason of Bergman’s death, the
Company shall have no further obligation to Bergman under this Agreement except that Bergman’s
heirs or estate shall be paid those obligations accrued hereunder to the date of his death,
consisting only of (a) Bergman’s unpaid Base Salary to the extent unpaid through the date of
termination, (b) the annual Incentive Compensation due to Bergman, if any, for the last full fiscal
year of the Company ending prior to the date of termination (if not previously paid), (c) the
product of (i) the annual Incentive Compensation

6

 

payable to Bergman for the fiscal year of the Company (based on the actual achievement of the
specified goals) in which Bergman’s date of termination occurs multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year during which Bergman was employed by
the Company, and the denominator of which is 365, (d) any accrued and unpaid vacation pay, and (e)
to the extent permitted under this Agreement, any other amounts or benefits owing to Bergman or his
beneficiaries under the then applicable benefit plans, policies and programs of the Company. (All
amounts determined pursuant to the provisions of clauses (a) through (e) above are hereinafter
referred to as “Accrued Obligations”.) Unless otherwise required by any benefit plan qualified
under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (any such plan
hereinafter referred to as a “Qualified Plan”), the Accrued Obligations described in clauses (a),
(b), (d) and (e) above shall be paid to Bergman’s estate or designated beneficiaries, as the case
may be, in a lump sum (to the extent such obligations are able to be paid in a lump sum, under the
terms of the plan for which such obligation arose) in cash within 15 business days after the date
of Bergman’s death, and, otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or
applicable law. The Accrued Obligation described in clause (c) above shall be paid in a lump sum
to Bergman’s estate or designated beneficiaries, as the case may be, at the time specified in the
last sentence of Section 2.2. Nothing in this Section 5.1 shall be deemed to affect the right of
Bergman’s spouse to receive the applicable benefits referred to in Section 3.1.

     5.2 COMPANY TERMINATION FOR CAUSE; RESIGNATION OTHER THAN FOR GOOD REASON; BERGMAN
NON-RENEWAL. If Bergman’s employment hereunder is terminated by the Company for Cause, by Bergman
voluntarily pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(ii), or by Bergman by non-renewal pursuant to Section 1.2,
the Company shall have no further obligation to Bergman under this Agreement, except that, unless
otherwise required by any Qualified Plan, Bergman shall be paid all Accrued Obligations to the date
of termination (other than the obligations specified in clauses (b) and (c) of Section 5.1) in a
lump sum (to the extent such obligations are able to be paid, under the terms of the plan for which
such obligation arose, in a lump sum) in cash within 15 business days after the date of
termination, and, otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or applicable law.
Bergman shall not be entitled to receive the amounts specified in clauses (b) and (c) of Section
5.1. Nothing in this Section 5.2 shall be deemed to affect the right of Bergman or his spouse, as
applicable, to receive the applicable benefits referred to in Sections 3.1, 3.3 and 5.5, unless
Bergman’s employment has been terminated by the Company for Cause.

     5.3 COMPANY TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR DUE TO DISABILITY; RESIGNATION FOLLOWING GOOD REASON;
COMPANY NON-RENEWAL. Subject to Section 5.4(c), if Bergman’s employment hereunder is terminated
due to Disability pursuant to Section 4.2 or by the Company without Cause, or by Bergman for Good
Reason pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(i) above, or if the Company at any time chooses not to extend or
not to continue to extend the Employment Period, in each case prior to the occurrence of a Change
in Control, the Company shall have no further obligation to Bergman under this Agreement except
that:

          (a) Unless otherwise required by any Qualified Plan, Bergman shall be paid the Accrued
Obligations to the date of termination (other than the obligations specified in clauses (b)
and (c) of Section 5.1) in a lump sum (to the extent such obligations are able to be paid in
a lump sum, under the terms of the plan for which such

7

 

obligation arose) in cash within 15 business days after the date of termination, and,
otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or applicable law; provided,
that the obligations specified in clauses (b) and (c) of Section 5.1 shall be paid in a lump
sum in cash at the time specified in the last sentence of Section 2.2.

          (b) Bergman shall be paid, as severance pay, on the day immediately following the
six-month anniversary of his date of termination:

	 	(i)	 	in a lump sum in cash, an amount
equal to 200% of Bergman’s then annual Base Salary plus, in a
lump sum in cash, an amount equal to 200% of Bergman’s average
annual Incentive Compensation recommended by the Compensation
Committee to be paid or payable with respect to the immediately
preceding three fiscal years of the Company ending prior to the
date of termination; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	in a lump sum in cash, an amount
equal to the Make-Up Pension Payment (as defined below). For
purposes of this Agreement, the “Make-Up Pension Payment” shall
mean with respect to each “pension plan” (as such term is
defined in Section 3(2)(A) of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended) of the Company (or its
subsidiaries) in which Bergman participated or had a benefit
under at the date of termination, the value of the excess of (A)
the fully vested value of the benefit to him under such plan,
assuming additional credit for service for all purposes under
such plan for the period from the date of termination through
the Employment Expiration Date (the “Remaining Term”),
continuation of Bergman’s Base Salary for the Remaining Term,
and that there are no earnings on plan funds in defined
contribution type plans for any period after the date of
termination, over (B) Bergman’s vested accrued benefits pursuant
to the provisions of each respective plan on the date of
termination. (For purposes of calculating the Make-Up Pension
Payment, the value of the excess shall be calculated using a
discount rate equal to the applicable federal rate (as defined
in Code Section 1274) in effect on the date of termination of
employment and no other actuarial assumptions). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, for purposes of any termination of employment
occurring during the Employment Period, the “Remaining Term”
under this clause (ii) shall mean the period from the date of
termination through the immediately succeeding December 31.

8

 

          (c) Nothing in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed to affect the right of Bergman or his
spouse, as applicable, to receive the applicable benefits referred to in Sections 3.1, 3.3
and 5.5.

          (d) With respect to an amount due to Bergman pursuant to Section 5.3(b)(i), the Company
shall be entitled to a credit against such amount with regard to the amount, if any, payable
to Bergman for such period under any disability plan of the Company.

     5.4 TERMINATION OF EXECUTIVE IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL. If Bergman’s employment
is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Bergman for Good Reason pursuant to Section
4.1(c)(i) within two years following a Change in Control, the Company shall have no further
obligation to Bergman under this Agreement except that:

          (a) Unless otherwise required by any Qualified Plan, Bergman shall be paid all Accrued
Obligations (other than the obligations specified in clauses (b) and (c) of Section 5.1) to
the date of termination in a lump sum (to the extent such obligations are able to be paid in
a lump sum, under the terms of the plan for which such obligation arose) in cash within 15
business days after the date of termination and, otherwise, in accordance with the terms of
the applicable plan or applicable law; provided, that the obligations specified in clauses
(b) and (c) of Section 5.1 shall be paid in a lump sum in cash at the time specified in the
last sentence of Section 2.2.

          (b) Bergman shall be paid, as severance pay, on the day immediately following the
six-month anniversary of his date of termination:

	 	(i)	 	in a lump sum in cash, an amount
equal to 300% of Bergman’s then annual Base Salary plus, in a
lump sum in cash, an amount equal to 300% of Bergman’s annual
Incentive Compensation recommended by the Compensation Committee
to be paid or payable with respect to whichever of the
immediately preceding two fiscal years of the Company ending
prior to the date of termination was higher; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	in a lump sum in cash, an amount
equal to the Make-Up Pension Payment (as defined above).

          (c) In the event Bergman’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (i)
within 90 days prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, or (ii) after the first
public announcement of the pendency of a Change in Control (but on or prior to a Change in
Control), Bergman shall be paid, as additional severance pay, on the day immediately
following the later of the six-month anniversary of his date of termination and the date of
the occurrence of the Change in Control, a lump sum cash amount equal to the sum of:

9

 

	 	(i)	 	the excess, if any, of (A) 300%
of Bergman’s annual Base Salary at the rate in effect
immediately preceding such termination of employment, plus 300%
of Bergman’s annual Incentive Compensation recommended by the
Compensation Committee to be paid or payable with respect to
whichever of the immediately preceding two fiscal years of the
Company ending prior to the date of termination was higher, over
(B) the amount paid or payable to Bergman pursuant to Section
5.3(b)(i) (whether or not such amount has then been paid); and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the excess, if any, of (A) the
aggregate per share cash consideration, and the fair market
value on such date of the aggregate per share non-cash
consideration, paid or payable to the Company’s common
stockholders in the transaction which is the basis for the
Change in Control, (or if no such consideration was then
payable, the last trading price of the Company’s common stock on
the day immediately preceding the date of the event that
resulted in the occurrence of the Change in Control), over (B)
the strike price per share that would have been required to be
paid in order to exercise each tranche of unvested options that
expired at the time of Bergman’s prior termination of
employment, times the number of shares of Common Stock covered
by each such tranche (such calculation to be performed
separately for each tranche with a different strike price, and
the aggregate amounts so calculated being the amount required to
be paid under this clause (ii)).

The amounts provided for under this Section 5.4(c) are in addition to, and not in lieu of,
the amounts provided for under Section 5.3.

          (d) Nothing in this Section 5.4 shall be deemed to affect the right of Bergman or his
spouse, as applicable, to receive the applicable benefits referred to in Sections 3.1, 3.3
and 5.5.

          (e) In the event that Bergman shall become entitled to the payments and/or benefits
provided by this Section 5.4 or any other amounts (whether pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, including Section 5.3, or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the
Company) (collectively the “Company Payments”) and such Company Payments will be subject to
the tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or any similar tax that may
hereafter be imposed), then the Company Payments shall be either (A) delivered in full or
(B) delivered as to such lesser extent, as would result in no portion of such amounts being
subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing results in the receipt by Bergman on a
net after-tax basis of the greatest amount, notwithstanding that all of some of the amounts
may be taxable under Code Section 4999. If a reduction is to occur pursuant to clause (B)
of the prior

10

 

sentence,unless an alternative election is permitted by, and does not result in taxation under,
Code Section 409A and timely elected by Bergman, the Company Payments shall be cutback to an
amount that would not give rise to any Excise Tax by reducing payments and benefits in the
following order: (1) accelerated vesting of restricted stock awards, to the extent
applicable; (2) accelerated vesting of stock options, to the extent applicable; (3) payments
under Section 5.4(b)(i) or 5.4(c)(i) hereof, as applicable; (4) payments under Section
5.4(b)(ii) hereof, if applicable; and (5) continued health insurance under Section 3.1
hereof.

          (f) For purposes of determining whether any of the Company Payments will be subject to
the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax, (i) the Company Payments shall be treated
as “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and all
“parachute payments” in excess of the “base amount” (as defined under Section 280G(b)(3) of
the Code) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless and except to the extent
that, in the written opinion (at the substantial authority level) of the Company’s
independent certified public accountants appointed prior to any change in ownership (as
defined under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) or tax counsel selected by such accountants
(the “Accountants”) such Company Payments (in whole or in part) either do not constitute
“parachute payments,” represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered
within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in excess of the “base amount” or are
otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax, and (ii) the value of any non-cash benefits or any
deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Accountants in accordance with the
principles of Section 280G of the Code.

          (g) For purposes of determining whether clause (A) or clause (B) of Section 5.4(e)
applies to the amount of the Company Payments, Bergman’s actual marginal rate of federal
income taxation in the calendar year in which the Company Payments are to paid shall be used
and the actual marginal rate of taxation in the state and locality of Bergman’s residence
for the calendar year in which the Company Payments are to be made shall be used, net of the
maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such
state and local taxes if paid in such year, after taking into account the limitation on the
deductibility of itemized deductions, including such state and local taxes under Section 68
of the Code.

     5.5 OFFICE SUPPORT. If Bergman’s employment hereunder is terminated by the Company without
Cause (as defined in Section 4.3), by the Company choosing not to extend the Employment Period,
upon Bergman’s Disability, by Bergman for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(i), or by Bergman
voluntarily pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(ii), prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, then
the Company (i) shall provide Bergman, at the Company’s cost, an office comparable to that used by
him prior to his termination and related office support (including making available the services of
one executive assistant) until the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year
in which Bergman’s date of termination occurs and (ii) shall pay on the second anniversary of
Bergman’s date of termination a lump sum in cash equal to the value of the office and related
office support specified above (including the costs of one executive assistant) for the period from
the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year on which date of termination
occurs until the third

11

 

anniversary of his date of termination. If Bergman’s employment hereunder has been terminated
by the Company choosing not to extend the Employment Period, upon Bergman’s Disability, by Bergman
for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4.l(c)(i), or by Bergman voluntarily pursuant to Section
4.1(c)(ii), on or after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company (i) shall provide
Bergman such office and related office support (including making available the services of one
executive assistant) until the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year in
which Bergman’s date of termination occurs and (ii) shall pay on the second anniversary of
Bergman’s date of termination a lump sum in cash equal to the value of the office and related
office support specified above (including the costs of one executive assistant) for the period from
the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year on which date of termination
occurs until the fourth anniversary of his date of termination.

     5.6 VESTING OF OPTIONS, ETC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement
between the Company and Bergman, upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control” as such term is
defined in Section 4.1, any and all options held by Bergman (or his assignees, if assignment is
permissible) to purchase Company capital stock, to the extent not theretofore vested, shall be
fully vested and, with respect to any and all shares of stock theretofore issued to Bergman bearing
restrictions on transfer imposed by the Company, such restrictions shall thereupon lapse.

     6. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, NON-COMPETITION, ETC.

          (a) (i) Both during and after the Employment Period, Bergman shall hold in a fiduciary
capacity for the benefit of the Company and shall not, without the prior written consent of
the Company, communicate or divulge (other than in the regular course of the Company’s
business), to anyone other than the Company, its subsidiaries and those designated by it,
any confidential or proprietary information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or
any of its subsidiaries, or to any of their respective businesses, obtained by Bergman
before or during the Employment Period except to the extent (A) disclosure is made during
the Employment Period by Bergman in the course of his duties hereunder and Bergman
reasonably determines in good faith that it is in the best interest of the Company to do so,
(B) Bergman is compelled pursuant to an order of a court or other body having jurisdiction
over such matter to do so (in which case the Company shall be given prompt written notice of
such intention to divulge not less than five days prior to such disclosure or such shorter
period as the circumstances may reasonably require) or (C) such information, knowledge or
data is or becomes public knowledge or is or becomes generally known within the Company’s
industry other than through improper disclosure by Bergman.

	 	(ii)	 	Bergman acknowledges and agrees
that the whole interest in any invention, improvement,
confidential information, copyright, design, plan, drawing or
data, including all worldwide rights to copyrights or any other
intellectual property rights (collectively, the “Rights”)
arising out of or resulting from Bergman’s performance of his
duties during the Employment Period shall be the sole and
exclusive property of the Company. Bergman undertakes (at the

12

 

	 	 	 	expense of the Company) to execute any document or do any
reasonably necessary act to enable the Company to obtain or
to assist the Company in obtaining any Rights. Bergman
hereby irrevocably appoints the Company to be his
attorney-in-fact to execute in his name and on his behalf any
instrument required and take any actions reasonably necessary
for the purpose of giving to the Company the full benefit of
the provisions of this subsection; provided,
however, that the Company shall notify Bergman prior
to executing any such instruments or taking any such actions.

          (b) Bergman will not (other than on behalf of the Company) directly or indirectly,
during the Employment Period and thereafter until the end of the “Restricted Period,” as an
individual proprietor, partner, stockholder, officer, employee, director, joint venturer,
investor, lender, or in any other capacity whatsoever (other than as the holder of not more
than one percent (1%) of the total outstanding stock of a publicly held company other than
Schein Pharmaceutical, Inc., (x) engage in any activity competitive with a material segment
of the business of the Company, or (y) recruit, solicit or induce any employee or employees
of the Company (other than his personal administrative assistant) to terminate their
employment with, or otherwise cease their relationship with, the Company. The “Restricted
Period” shall end (A) one year after termination of employment if termination is due to a
termination by the Company without Cause, by Bergman for Good Reason pursuant to Section
4.1(c)(i), or because of Bergman’s Disability (such one-year period may be extended for an
additional year at the Company’s option; provided, however, that upon making
such election which shall be made no less than 180 days prior to the expiration of such
one-year period, the Company shall pay Bergman on the day immediately following the
six-month anniversary of his date of termination, a lump sum cash amount equal to 100% of
his Base Salary (as of the date of such termination)), or (B) upon the later of the second
anniversary of the expiration of the Employment Period and the Employment Expiration Date,
if such termination is due to a termination by the Company for Cause or by Bergman
voluntarily pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(ii).

          (c) If any restriction set forth in Section 6(b) is found by any court of competent
jurisdiction or arbitrator to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of
time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be
interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities or
geographic area as to which it may be enforceable.

          (d) The restrictions contained in Sections 6(a) and (b) are necessary for the
protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by Bergman to be
reasonable to such purpose. Bergman acknowledges and agrees that money damages would not
adequately compensate the Company for any breach of Sections 6(a) or 6(b) and will cause the
Company substantial and irreparable damage and therefore, in the event of any such breach,
in addition to such other remedies which may be available, the Company shall have the right
to seek specific performance and injunctive relief.

13

 

     7. NO MITIGATION; NO SET-OFF

     The Company agrees that if Bergman’s employment with the Company is terminated prior to the
Employment Expiration Date for any reason whatsoever, Bergman is not required to seek other
employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to Bergman by the Company
pursuant to this Agreement. Further, the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement
shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by Bergman as the result of employment by another
employer or otherwise; and the amount of any benefit provided for in this Agreement (other than the
health and medical benefits to the extent provided for in Section 3.1) shall not be reduced by any
benefit provided to Bergman as the result of employment by another employer or otherwise. The
Company’s obligations to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform
its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, or other
similar right which the Company may have against Bergman.

     8. LEGAL FEES

     If the Company fails to timely make any payment due hereunder and Bergman seeks to collect
such amounts or negotiate a settlement, and either (i) reaches a settlement for any part or all of
the payments provided for hereunder, or (ii) successfully enforces the terms of this Agreement,
through litigation or arbitration, by or through a lawyer, the Company shall advance all reasonable
costs of such collection or enforcement, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements and
other fees and expenses which Bergman may incur, promptly after submission of documentation
reasonably acceptable to the Company in respect of such costs and expenses. All amounts paid by
the Company shall promptly be refunded to the Company if and when a court of competent jurisdiction
finds that the Company is entitled to have such sums refunded or if a settlement is reached which
is insubstantial compared to the damages that were requested. The Company shall pay or reimburse
Bergman for all reasonable legal fees incurred by him in connection with the negotiation and
execution of this Agreement; provided that such payment or reimbursement shall be paid promptly and
in no event later than the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month following the
end of the calendar year in which the legal fees are incurred or (ii) the 15th day of
the third month following the end of the fiscal year in which the legal fees are incurred.

     9. SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT

          (a) Unless otherwise resulting by operation of law, the Company shall require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to
all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company to expressly assume and
agree in writing to perform this Agreement in the same manner, and to the same extent that
the Company would be required to perform it if no such transaction had taken place. As used
in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any
successor to its business or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this
Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.

14

 

          (b) The Company may not assign this Agreement except in connection with, and to the
acquiror of, all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, provided
such acquiror expressly assumes and agrees in writing to perform this Agreement as provided
in Section 9(a).

          (c) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Bergman and his
personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs,
distributees, devisees and legatees; provided, however, that this Agreement
may not be assigned by Bergman.

          (d) The parties agree that, in addition to the persons or entities referred to in
Section 9(c) above, who shall be third party beneficiaries of the entire Agreement in the
event of Bergman’s death or Disability, Bergman’s spouse is a third party beneficiary of
Section 3.1 and, to the extent that the events described therein would cause her to be
entitled to the benefit of rights granted to her under Section 3.1, or any provision of
Section 5, she shall have the right to enforce such provisions as fully as if she were a
party to this Agreement.

     10. MISCELLANEOUS

          (b) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by court of competent jurisdiction to
be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, including, without limitation, under any provision of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended from time to time, such provision shall be
construed and enforced as if it had been more narrowly drawn so as not to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable and such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall have no
effect upon and shall not impair the enforceability of any other provision of this
Agreement.

          (c) No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged except by a
waiver, modification or discharge in writing signed by Bergman and such officer as may be

from, Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder
(collectively “Code Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement (or of any award of
compensation, including equity compensation or benefits) shall be construed in a manner
consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not guarantee any particular tax treatment
and the Company shall have no liability with regard to any failure to comply with Code
Section 409A. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes
of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits,
which are subject to Code Section 409A, upon or following a termination of employment unless
such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A
(and the guidance issued thereunder) and, for purposes of any such provision of this
Agreement,

16

 

references to a “resignation,” “termination,” “termination of employment,” “retirement” or like
terms shall mean separation from service.

          (i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Bergman agrees that incentive
compensation, as defined under of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection

(“Dodd-Frank”), payable to Bergman under the Company’s bonus plans, this Agreement or any
other plan, arrangement or program established or maintained by the Company shall be subject
to any clawback policy adopted or implemented by the Company in respect of Dodd-Frank, or in
respect of any other applicable law or regulation.

Exhibit 10.2

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

PURSUANT TO THE

HENRY SCHEIN, INC. 1994 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

(AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE AS OF MARCH 27, 2007)

     THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) made as of November 15, 2011 (the “Grant Date”),
by and between Henry Schein, Inc. (the “Company”) and Stanley M. Bergman (the “Participant”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Henry Schein, Inc. 1994 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended
and restated effective as of March 27, 2007), as amended from time to time, a copy of which is on
file with the Company’s Corporate Human Resources Department and is available for Participant to
review upon request at reasonable intervals as determined by the Company (the “Plan”), which is
administered by a Committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”); and

          WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9 of the Plan, the Committee may grant Restricted Stock Units to
Key Employees under the Plan; and

          WHEREAS, the Participant is a Key Employee of the Company.

          NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units.  Subject to the restrictions and other
conditions set forth herein, the Committee has authorized this grant of [________________]
Restricted Stock Units to the Participant on the Grant Date.

2.
Vesting and Payment.

               (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, the Restricted Stock Units awarded under
this Agreement shall not vest unless and until (i) the Committee determines and certifies that the
performance goals determined by the Committee in writing and communicated to the Participant as of
the Grant Date (the “Performance Goals”) have been satisfied with respect to the five year period
beginning on the first day of the fiscal year of the Company commencing after the Grant Date, and
(ii) December 31, 2016. The date on which both (i) and (ii) have been attained shall be the
“Vesting Date”. It is intended that the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder constitute a
“performance-based award” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code and, accordingly, any such
determination shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.
Except as set forth in Sections 2(c) and 2(d), if the Performance Goals are not satisfied in
accordance with Section 2(a)(i), the Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Agreement shall be
forfeited. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but except as set forth in Sections
2(b), 2(c), 2(d) and 2(e), the Participant must be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary at the
times the Performance Goals are satisfied and on the Vesting Date.

               (b) Retirement. In the event of the Participant’s Retirement prior to the Vesting
Date, a pro-rata portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest, subject to achievement of the
Performance Goals to the date of Retirement (such date referred to herein as a “Pro-rata Vesting
Date”). The remaining Restricted Stock Units (i.e., any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested
on the Pro-Rata Vesting Date) shall continue to vest in accordance with Section 2(a) following the
Participant’s Retirement, subject to the Participant’s compliance with the restrictive covenants
set forth in Section 6 of the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated as of December 31,
2011, between the Company and the Participant (the “Employment Agreement”) through the Vesting
Date. If the Participant breaches such restrictive covenants prior to the Vesting Date, the
remaining Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited. Further, the remaining Restricted Stock
Units shall be forfeited if the Performance Goals described in Section 2(a)(i) are not achieved by
December 31, 2016. For purposes of this Section 2(b), the Participant shall qualify for
“Retirement” only if the Participant and the Company mutually agree to the Participant’s Retirement
and the Participant’s Retirement date.

               (c) Death or Disability. In the event of the Participant’s death (prior to a
Termination of Employment or following Retirement as described in Section 2(b) or a Termination of
Employment as described in Section 2(e)) or Disability (prior to a Termination of Employment), the
Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on such death or Disability, without regard to
achievement of the Performance Goals described in Section 2(a)(i). For purposes of this Agreement,
“Disability” means that the Participant is disabled within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(C)(i)
or (ii).

               (d) Change of Control. In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment
for any reason, other than for Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), within the two year
period following a Change of Control, the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested upon the
Participant’s Termination of Employment (the “Change of Control Vesting Date”), without regard to
achievement of the Performance Goals described in Section 2(a)(i). For purposes of this Agreement,
a “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of a Section 409A Change of Control (as defined in
Section 3). In the event of a Change of Control occurring on or after the Participant’s Retirement
or Termination of Employment without Cause or for Good Reason, and on or before December 31, 2016,
the remaining Restricted Stock Units (i.e., any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested on the
applicable Pro Rata Vesting Date) shall become fully vested upon the Change of Control, without
regard to achievement of the Performance Goals described in Section 2(a)(i)

               (e) Termination of Employment without Cause or for Good Reason. In the event the
Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good
Reason (as such terms are defined on the Employment Agreement), a pro-rata portion of the
Restricted Stock Units shall vest, subject to achievement of the Performance Goals to the date of
Termination of Employment (such date referred to herein as a “Pro-rata Vesting Date”). The
remaining Restricted Stock Units (i.e., any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested on the
Pro-Rata Vesting Date) shall continue to vest in accordance with Section 2(a) following the
Participant’s Termination of Employment. The remaining Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited
if the Performance Goals described in Section 2(a)(i) are not achieved by December 31, 2016.

               (f) Payment. The Participant shall be entitled to receive one share of Common Stock
with respect to one vested Restricted Stock Unit. The Participant shall be paid one share of
Common Stock with respect to each vested Restricted Stock Unit within thirty (30) days of the
Vesting Date; except that:

               (i) in the event of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s estate shall be paid within
thirty (30) days of the Participant’s death;

               (ii) in the event of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant shall be paid within thirty
(30) days of Disability;

               (iii) in the event of a Change of Control Vesting Date, the Participant shall be paid within
thirty (30) days of the Change of Control Vesting Date;

               (iv) in the event of the Participant’s Retirement, the Participant shall be paid (A) with
respect to the pro-rata portion of Restricted Stock Units vested on his Retirement, on the six
month anniversary of the Pro-rata Vesting Date, and (B) with respect to the remaining Restricted
Stock Units, subject to compliance with Section 2(b), within thirty (30) days of the Vesting Date;

               (v) in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment without Cause or Termination
of Employment for Good Reason, the Participant shall be paid (A) with respect to the pro-rata
portion of Restricted Stock Units vested on his date of Termination of Employment, on the six

1

 

month anniversary of the Pro-rata Vesting Date, and (B) with respect to the remaining
Restricted Stock Units, within thirty (30) days of the Vesting Date;

               (vi) in the event of non-renewal of the Employment Agreement, the Participant shall be paid
within thirty (30) days of the Vesting Date.

3. Change of Control Definition. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Section 409A
Change of Control” shall have the meaning set forth in Appendix A, attached hereto; provided, that,
no event shall constitute a “Change of Control” for purposes of this Agreement unless such event
also qualifies as a “change in control event” for purposes of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5).

4. Termination. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2(b), (c),(d) and (e), all
unvested Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited on the Participant’s Termination of Employment.

5. Dividend Equivalents. Cash dividends on Shares shall be credited to a dividend
book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each Restricted Stock Unit granted
to the Participant, provided that such cash dividends shall not be deemed to be reinvested in
Shares and will be held uninvested and without interest. The Participant’s right to receive any
such cash dividends shall vest if and when the related Restricted Stock Unit vests, and such cash
dividends shall be paid in cash to the Participant if and when the related Restricted Stock Unit is
paid to the Participant. Stock dividends on Shares shall be credited to a dividend book entry
account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each Restricted Stock Unit granted to the
Participant. The Participant’s right to receive any such stock dividends shall vest if and when
the related Restricted Stock Unit vests, and such stock dividends shall be paid in stock to the
Participant if and when the related Restricted Stock Unit is paid to the Participant.

6. Rights as a Stockholder. The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder
with respect to any Shares covered by any Restricted Stock Unit unless and until the Participant
has become the holder of record of the Shares, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in
cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any such Shares, except as
otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement or the Plan.

7. Provisions of Plan Control. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, conditions
and provisions of the Plan, including, without limitation, the amendment provisions thereof, and to
such rules, regulations and interpretations relating to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee
and as may be in effect from time to time. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference.
Capitalized terms in this Agreement that are not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning as
set forth in the Plan. If and to the extent that this Agreement conflicts or is inconsistent with
the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall
be deemed to be modified accordingly. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements between the
Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.

8. Amendment.The Board or the Committee may amend, suspend or terminate this
Agreement subject to the terms of the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no
modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless in
writing and signed by the party against whom it is sought to be enforced.

10.
No Obligation to Continue Employment. This Agreement is not an agreement of
employment. This Agreement does not guarantee that the Company or its Subsidiaries will employ or
retain, or to continue to, employ or retain the Participant during the entire, or any portion of
the, term of this Agreement, including but not limited to any period during which the Restricted
Stock Unit is outstanding, nor does it modify in any respect the Company or its Subsidiary’s right
to terminate the Participant’s employment or modify the Participant’s compensation, except to the
extent provided in the Participant’s Employment Agreement.

11. Legend. The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable

12. Securities Representations.The grant of the Restricted Stock Units and issuance of
Shares upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to, and in compliance with, all
applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign securities law. No Shares may be issued
hereunder if the issuance of such Shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal,
state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock
exchange or market system upon which the Shares may then be listed. As a condition to the
settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any
qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence compliance with any applicable law
or regulation.

          The Shares are being issued to the Participant and this Agreement is being made by the Company
in reliance upon the following express representations and warranties of the Participant. The
Participant acknowledges, represents and warrants that:

               (a) He or she has been advised that he or she may be an “affiliate” within the meaning of Rule
144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and in this connection the Company is
relying in part on his or her representations set forth in this section.

               (b) If he or she is deemed an affiliate within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Act, the Shares
must be held indefinitely unless an exemption from any applicable resale restrictions is available
or the Company files an additional registration statement (or a “re-offer prospectus”) with regard
to such Shares and the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares (or to file a
“re-offer prospectus”).

               (c) If he or she is deemed an affiliate within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Act, he or she
understands that the exemption from registration under Rule 144 will not be available unless (i) a
public trading market then exists for the Common Stock of the Company, (ii) adequate information
concerning the Company is then available to the public, and (iii) other terms and conditions of
Rule 144 or any exemption therefrom are complied with; and that any sale of the Shares may be made
only in limited amounts in accordance with such terms and conditions.

13. Transfer of Personal Data. The Participant authorizes, agrees and unambiguously
consents to the transmission by the Company of any personal data information related to the
Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Agreement, for legitimate business purposes (including,
without limitation, the administration of the Plan) out of the Participant’s home country and
including to countries with less data protection than the data protection provided by the
Participant’s home country. This authorization/consent is freely given by the Participant.

14. Section 409A. Any provisions in this Agreement providing for the payment of “nonqualified deferred
compensation” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury regulations thereunder) to
the Participant are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and this
Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. Neither party individually or in
combination may accelerate or defer the timing of the payment of any such nonqualified deferred
compensation, except in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and this Agreement, and no amount
shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it is permitted to be paid under Section 409A of
the Code and this Agreement. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional
tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Participant as a result of Section 409A of the
Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Any amounts payable
hereunder that satisfy the short-term deferral exception in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4) shall not
be subject to Section 409A of the Code. Whenever a payment under this Agreement may be paid within
a specified period, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the
Company’s sole discretion.

15. Miscellaneous. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

(regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable New York principles of conflict
of laws).

               (b) This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which taken together
shall constitute one contract.

               (c) The failure of any party hereto at any time to require performance by another party of any
provision of this Agreement shall not affect the right of such party to require performance of that
provision, and any waiver by any party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not
be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, a waiver of the
provision itself, or a waiver of any right under this Agreement.

first set forth above.

Appendix A

This is Appendix A to the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement Pursuant to the Henry Schein, Inc.
1994 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended and restated effective as of March 27, 2007) (the “RSU
Agreement”). For purposes of Section 3 of the RSU Agreement, a “Section 409A Change of Control”
shall be deemed to have occurred upon:

(i) an acquisition by any Person of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Act) of (A) 50% or more of the then outstanding Shares or (B) 33% or more of
the total combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of HSI entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding HSI Voting Securities”); excluding,
however, the following: (w) any acquisition directly from the Company, other than an acquisition by
virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege unless the security being so converted was itself
acquired directly from the Company, (x) any acquisition by the Company, (y) any acquisition by an
employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or (z) any
acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a reorganization, merger, consolidation or similar
corporate transaction (in each case, a “Corporate Transaction”), if, pursuant to such Corporate
Transaction, the conditions described in clauses (A), (B) and (C) of paragraph (iii) below are
satisfied; or

(ii) within any 12-month period beginning on or after the date of the RSU Agreement, the
individuals who constitute the Board immediately before the beginning of such period (the Board as
of the date hereof shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason
to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided that for purposes of this Subsection any
individual who becomes a member of the Board subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or
nomination for election by HSI’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of
those individuals who are members of the Board and who are also members of the Incumbent Board (or
deemed to be such pursuant to this proviso) shall be considered as though such individual were a
member of the Incumbent Board; but, provided further, that any such individual whose initial
assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such
terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Act) or other actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board
shall not be so considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or

(iii) the consummation of a Corporate Transaction or, if consummation of such Corporate Transaction
is subject to the consent of any government or governmental agency, the obtaining of such consent
(either explicitly or implicitly by consummation); excluding, however, such a Corporate Transaction
pursuant to which (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who are the
beneficial owners, respectively, of the outstanding Shares and Outstanding HSI Voting Securities
immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more
than 60% of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from
such Corporate Transaction and the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of
such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, of the outstanding
Shares and Outstanding HSI Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person (other than the
Company, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or the corporation resulting
from such Corporate Transaction and any Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such
Corporate Transaction, directly or indirectly, 33% or more of the outstanding Shares or Outstanding
HSI Voting Securities, as the case may be, will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, 33% or
more of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from
such Corporate Transaction or the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of such
corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors and (C) individuals who were
members of the Incumbent Board will constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of
directors of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction; or

(iv) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company;
excluding, however, such sale or other disposition to a corporation with respect to which,
following such sale or other disposition, (x) more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding
shares of common stock of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding
voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors will
be then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals
and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the outstanding Common Stock and
Outstanding HSI Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in
substantially the same proportion as their ownership, immediately prior to such sale or other
disposition, of the outstanding Common Stock and Outstanding HSI Voting Securities, as the case may
be, (y) no Person (other than the Company and any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the
Company or such corporation and any Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such sale or
other disposition, directly or indirectly, 33% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or
Outstanding HSI Voting Securities, as the case may be) will beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, 33% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such
corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such
corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors and (z) individuals who were
members of the Incumbent Board will constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of
directors of such corporation.

(v) No event set forth herein shall constitute a “Section 409A Change of Control” unless such event
also qualifies as a “change in control event” for purposes of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5).
Accordingly, the definition of “Section 409A Change of Control” set forth herein shall be limited,
construed and interpreted in accordance with Section 409A and the regulations issued thereunder.
