LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

(ONE YEAR PERFORMANCE CYCLE)

PURSUANT TO THE KING PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

INCENTIVE PLAN

     This Long-Term Performance Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the date set
forth on the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate attached hereto (the “Grant Date”) by
King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) and the individual identified on the Long-Term
Performance Unit Award Certificate (the “Participant”) to grant a Long-Term Performance Unit Award
by the Company to the Participant on the terms and conditions set forth below:

     1. LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARD. 

     As of the Grant Date, subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth herein, the
Company grants and issues to the Participant a Long-Term Performance Unit Award for such number of
Long-Term Performance Units as indicated on the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate (the
“Long-Term Performance Units”) which may be earned during the Performance Cycle as indicated on the
Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate if the Performance Goals set forth on the Long-Term
Performance Unit Award Certificate are met.

     2. GOVERNING PLAN.

     The Long-Term Performance Unit Award shall be granted pursuant to and (except as specifically
set forth herein) subject in all respects to the applicable provisions of the King Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. Incentive Plan (“Plan”), which are incorporated herein by reference. Terms not otherwise
defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

     3. CALCULATION OF EARNED LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNITS. 

     The Committee, in its sole discretion, will determine the number of Long-Term Performance
Units earned by the Participant at the end of the Performance Cycle based on the attainment of the
Performance Goals as set forth on the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate. The number of
shares of Common Stock ultimately earned and paid, if any, for such Long-Term Performance Units
will be determined based on the number of Long-Term Performance Units actually earned and vested as
set forth in Section 4 below, with one share of Common Stock granted to the Participant for every
earned and vested Long-Term Performance Unit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Long-Term
Performance Unit Award Agreement, upon the completion of the Performance Cycle, the Committee may,
in its sole discretion, reduce the number of Long-Term Performance Units that are actually earned
by the Participant, irrespective of whether adherence to the Performance Goals schedule provided in
the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate would have resulted in a greater number of
Long-Term Performance Units having been earned. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee may not
use this discretion following a Change of Control in accordance with Article 11 of the Plan.

Exhibit 1-1

 

     4. VESTING OF LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNITS. 

     Long-Term Performance Units earned will vest as set forth below:

          (a) Provided the Participant has continued employment through the end of the Vesting Period
set forth in the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate, one hundred percent (100%) of the
earned Long-Term Performance Units shall vest on the last day of such Vesting Period; or

          (b) In the event of the Participant’s Separation from Service by reason of death, Disability,
Approved Retirement, Cause or resignation during the Performance Cycle, the vesting, forfeiture and
payment of Long-Term Performance Units shall be determined according to Section 9.2 and Section
13.5 of the Plan, which requires that all payments comply with Section 409A of the Code. The
portion of any Long-Term Performance Units which vest upon one of the events discussed above
pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Plan shall be paid to the Participant as soon as reasonably
practicable, with the payment date determined by the Company in its sole discretion. In the case
of Approved Retirement, the payment due to the Participant under Section 9.2(c)(iii) shall be
calculated as if the target performance for each Long-Term Performance Unit had, in fact, been
achieved.

          (c) In the event of the Participant’s Separation from Service by reason of death, Disability
or Approved Retirement following the completion of the Performance Cycle, but prior to the end of
the Vesting Period, one hundred percent (100%) of the earned Long-Term Performance Units shall vest
and be payable to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable following such Separation from
Service (with the payment date determined by the Company in its sole discretion).

     5. FORM AND TIMING OF PAYMENT. 

     All payments of vested Long-Term Performance Units pursuant to this Agreement will be made in
the form of shares of Common Stock. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, payment will be
made by the Date of Payment set forth in the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate;
provided, however, if, the Participant is a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A of
the Code) then a payment due upon his or her Separation from Service, if required by Section 409A
of the Code, will be made six (6) months after the date of such Separation from Service.

     6. VOTING AND DIVIDEND RIGHTS.

     Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Participant shall not have voting or
any other rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to Long-Term Performance Units. The
Participant will obtain full voting and other rights as a shareholder of the Company upon the
payment of the Long-Term Performance Units in shares of Common Stock as provided in Section 5
above.

     7. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS.

          (a) Tax Matters. The Long-Term Performance Units granted are subject to appropriate
income tax withholding and other deductions required by applicable laws or regulations, and
Participant and his successors will be responsible for all income and other taxes payable as a
result of a payout under the Long-Term Performance Units or otherwise in connection with this
Agreement. The Company will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the
Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary to remit to the Company, the minimum necessary amount
to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to
be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement. The Company
is not required to provide any gross-up or other tax assistance. With respect to withholding
required upon any taxable event arising as a result of the Long-Term Performance Units granted
hereunder, the Company, unless notified otherwise by the Participant in writing within thirty (30)
days prior to the taxable event, will satisfy the tax withholding requirement by withholding shares
of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, equal to the total minimum statutory tax required to be
withheld on the transaction. The Participant agrees to pay to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries
any amount of tax that the Company, its and/or its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold as a
result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means
previously described.

          (b) Independent Advice; No Representations. Participant acknowledges that (i) (s)he
was free to use professional advisors of her/his choice in connection with this Agreement, has
received advice from her/his professional advisors in connection with this Agreement, understands
its meaning and import, and is entering into this Agreement freely and without coercion or duress;
and (ii) (s)he has not received and is not relying upon any advice, representations or assurances
made by or on behalf of the Company or any Company affiliate or any employee of or counsel to the
Company regarding any tax (including the application of Section 409A of the Code) or other effects
or implications of the Long-Term Performance Units or other matters contemplated by this Agreement.

          (c) Value of Long-Term Performance Units. No representations or promises are made to
Participant regarding the value of the Long-Term Performance Units or Company’s business prospects.
Participant acknowledges that information about investment in Company stock, including financial
information and related risks, is contained in Company’s SEC reports which have been made available
for Participant’s review at any time before Participant’s acceptance of this Agreement. Further,
Participant understands that the Company does not provide tax or investment advice and acknowledges
Company’s recommendation that Participant consult with independent specialists regarding such
matters. Sale or other transfer of the Company stock may be limited by and subject to Company
policies as well as applicable securities laws and regulations.

          (d) Adjustment in Capitalization. In the event of an Adjustment Event that is a
merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction, then
the Award pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement shall be deemed to pertain to the securities and
other property, including cash, to which a holder of the number of Long-Term Performance Units
would have been entitled to receive in connection with such Adjustment Event.

3

 

          (e) Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, vesting, forfeiture and payment
shall occur with respect to the Long Term Performance Units in accordance with Article 11 of the
Plan.

          (f) No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement does not confer upon Participant
any right to continue as an employee of the Company or its subsidiary or to any particular
employment tenure, nor does it limit in any way the right of Company or its subsidiary to terminate
Participant’s services to the Company or its subsidiary at any time, with or without cause.

          (g) Nontransferability. Long-Term Performance Units awarded pursuant to this
Agreement may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated (a
“Transfer”) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided in
the Plan. If any Transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, of Long-Term Performance Units is
made, or if any attachment, execution, garnishment, or lien will be issued against or placed upon
the Long-Term Performance Units, the Participant’s right to such Long-Term Performance Units will
be immediately forfeited to the Company, and this Agreement will lapse.

          (h) Approved Retirement. “Approved Retirement” means, with respect to the interpretation of
the Plan and this Agreement, with the express consent of the Company at or before the time of such
Approved Retirement, which consent may be withheld for any or no reason, any voluntary termination
of employment by the Participant after having reached the age of fifty-five (55) years and after
having completed at least fifteen (15) years of continuous employment with the Company.

     8. GENERAL.

          (a) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is personal in its nature and Participant

personally or if deposited in the United States mail, certified or registered, postage prepaid,

from those adjudicated by the court, the application of any other provision of this Agreement, or
the enforceability or invalidity of this Agreement as a whole. If any provision of this Agreement
becomes or is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction by reason of the scope,
extent or duration of its coverage, then such provision shall be deemed amended to the extent
necessary to conform to applicable law so as to be valid and enforceable or, if such provision
cannot be so amended without materially altering the intention of the parties, then such provision
will be stricken and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Agreement. References herein to Sections are references to the referenced Section hereof, unless
otherwise specified.

          (g) Waivers; Amendments. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of

King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) and the individual identified on the Long-Term

     As of the Grant Date, subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth herein, the
Company grants and issues to the Participant a Long-Term Performance Unit Award for such number of
Long-Term Performance Units as indicated on the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate (the

defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

	 	3.	 	CALCULATION OF EARNED LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNITS. 

     The Committee, in its sole discretion, will determine the number of Long-Term Performance
Units earned by the Participant at the end of the Performance Cycle based on the attainment of the
Performance Goals as set forth on the Long-Term Performance Unit Award Certificate. The number of
shares of Common Stock ultimately earned and paid, if any, for such Long-Term Performance Units
will be determined based on the number of Long-Term Performance Units actually earned and vested at
the end of the Performance Cycle as set forth in Section 4 below, with one share of Common Stock
granted to the Participant for every earned and vested Long-Term Performance Unit.

	 	4.	 	VESTING OF LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNITS.

          (a) Provided the Participant has continued employment through the end of the Performance
Cycle, one hundred percent (100%) of the earned Long-Term Performance Units will vest on the last

1

 

          (b) In the event of the Participant’s Separation from Service by reason of death, Disability,
Approved Retirement, Cause or resignation during the Performance Cycle, the vesting, forfeiture and
payment of Long-Term Performance Units shall be determined according to Section 9.2 and Section
13.5 of the Plan, which requires that all payments comply with Section 409A of the Code. The
portion of any Long-Term Performance Units which vest upon one of the events discussed above
pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Plan shall be paid to the Participant as soon as reasonably
practicable, with the payment date determined by the Company in its sole discretion. In the case
of Approved Retirement, the payment due to the Participant under Section 9.2(c)(iii) shall be
calculated as if the target performance for each Long-Term Performance Unit had, in fact, been
achieved.

	 	5.	 	FORM AND TIMING OF PAYMENT.

provided, however, if, the Participant is a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A of
the Code) then a payment due upon his or her Separation from Service, if required by Section 409A
of the Code, will be made six months after the date of such Separation from Service.

	 	6.	 	VOTING AND DIVIDEND RIGHTS.

     Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Participant shall not have voting or

policies as well as applicable securities laws and regulations.

          (d) Adjustment in Capitalization. In the event of an Adjustment Event that is a

other property, including cash, to which a holder of the number of Long-Term Performance Units
would have been entitled to receive in connection with such Adjustment Event.

          (e) Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, vesting, forfeiture and payment
shall occur with respect to the Long Term Performance Units in accordance with Article 11 of the
Plan.

          (f) No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement does not confer upon Participant

employment tenure, nor does it limit in any way the right of Company or its subsidiary to terminate
Participant’s services to the Company or its subsidiary at any time, with or without cause.

          (g) Nontransferability. Long-Term Performance Units awarded pursuant to this
Agreement may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated (a
“Transfer”) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided in
the Plan. If any Transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, of Long-Term Performance Units is
made, or if any attachment, execution, garnishment, or lien will be issued against or placed upon

3

of employment by the Participant after having reached the age of fifty-five (55) years and after
