place of business at 4955 Orange Drive, Davie, Florida 33314, and Larry Rosenthal (“Executive”), of
Weston, Florida.

WHEREAS, on May 31, 2002 (“Effective Date”), Company and Executive entered into an Employment
Agreement to better assure the Company of the continued services of Executive for the period
provided in that Agreement;

WHEREAS, that Agreement is scheduled to expire in May 2005, and the Company desires to retain
the services of Executive beyond May 2005, and Executive is willing to continue to serve in the
employ of Company, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter provided.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto
hereby agree as follows:

employ of Company, upon the terms and conditions herein provided. For purposes of this Agreement,
the term “Company” shall mean and include Andrx Corporation and any of its subsidiaries, whether

authorized officers. As President, Executive’s direct responsibilities, and reports, shall include
research and development (including analytical research), generic sales and marketing and business
development for the Company. Executive shall report directly to the Company’s Chief Executive
Officer or President. Executive also agrees to serve, if elected, as an officer and director of
any subsidiary of Company without additional compensation. For purposes of this Agreement, the
term “subsidiary” shall mean any corporation in which Company owns at least a majority of that
corporation’s voting stock and at least a majority of each class of that corporation’s nonvoting
stock.

(A) Term. Executive’s employment shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for
a period of forty-eight (48) calendar months thereafter (“Initial Term”), unless sooner terminated,
as provided in Paragraph 6 hereof. In the event Company and Executive agree that Executive should
continue in the employ of Company after the end of the Initial Term, such continued employment
shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided by the
parties in writing, and shall thereafter expire upon one hundred eighty (180) days written notice
by Company to Executive, upon ninety (90) days notice by Executive to Company or as otherwise
provided in Paragraph 6 (including the Initial Term, the “Employment Term”).

(B) Duties. Executive shall devote his full time, attention, skill and best efforts to the
faithful performance of his duties to Company. Executive shall not engage in any other business or
occupation without Company’s written consent; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall
prohibit Executive from making passive or personal investments, provided such investments do not
result in an undisclosed conflict of interest between Executive and Company. Executive
acknowledges that he shall travel as reasonably required around the United States and abroad in
connection with his employment.

4. Compensation.

(A) Base Compensation. For all services rendered by Executive in any capacity during his
employment under this Agreement, including, without limitation, services as an executive, officer,
director, or member of any committee of Company, Company, commencing with the twelve (12) month

the rate of Three Hundred Seventy Five Thousand ($375,000.00) Dollars per year, which shall be
subject to upward adjustment on an annual basis.

(B) Fringe Compensation. In addition to the foregoing, during each year of employment
hereunder, Company shall provide Executive with the following:

account (“vouchers”) of such expenditures in such detail as may reasonably be required by Company.

(4) Vacation. Four (4) weeks of vacation with full pay each 12-month period during the term
of this Agreement, at such times as shall be mutually agreed upon by Executive and the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer or President.

(5) Professional Development. Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all fees,
reasonable travel and other expenses incurred in connection with attendance at seminars and

country club memberships, pension or profit sharing plan, stock purchase plan, stock option plan,
restricted stock plan, group life insurance plan, hospitalization insurance plan, medical services
plan, or any other plan of Company now, heretofore or hereafter existing for the benefit of
Executive, and other senior executives or officers generally. However, in lieu of receiving
reimbursement for expenses related to relocating to Florida pursuant to the Company’s relocation
policy, Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses relating to his and his wife’s
personal travel between Florida and their former home in Pennsylvania and other related items,
including a gross-up for taxes related thereto.

5. Key-Man Insurance. At any time during the term of this Agreement, Company shall have the
right to insure the life of Executive for the sole benefit of Company, in such amounts, and with
such terms, as it may determine. All premiums payable thereon shall be the obligation of Company.
Executive shall have no interest in any such policy, but shall cooperate with Company in taking out
such insurance by submitting to physical examinations, by supplying all information required by the
insurance company, and by executing all necessary documents, provided that no financial obligation
is imposed upon Executive by any such documents.

reflected in Section 2, or (ii) there shall occur any material breach by Company of any material
provision of this Agreement which shall remain uncured for a period of thirty (30) days following

time during the Employment Term, there is a “Change in Control of Company” (as hereinafter
defined), Executive shall, in the exercise of his sole discretion and upon the provision of written
notice to Company within eighteen (18) months after the date of such event, be entitled to
terminate his employment hereunder as of the date of provision of such written notice, and Company
shall in such event pay severance compensation following the Termination Date as set forth in
Section 7. As used herein, a “Change in Control of Company” shall be deemed to have occurred if

benefit plan of Company or any subsidiary of Company, (B) a corporation owned, directly or
indirectly, by the stockholders of Company in substantially the proportions as their ownership of
Company, (C) Company or any subsidiary of Company, or (D) Executive, together with all Affiliates
and Associates of Executive, is or becomes the Beneficial Owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Company representing
40% of more of the combined voting power of Company’s then outstanding securities, such person
being hereinafter referred to as an Acquiring Person; (ii) individuals who, on the date hereof, are
Continuing Directors shall cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Company’s Board of
Directors (“Board”); or (iii) the stockholders of Company approve a merger of consolidation of

least 80% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders or Company approve
a plan of complete liquidation of Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by Company of
all or substantially all of Company’s assets. For purposes of this Section, the term “Continuing
Director” shall mean (1) any member of the Board, while such person is a member of the Board, who
was a member of the Board prior to the date of this Agreement, or (2) any person who subsequently
becomes a member of the Board, while such person is a member of the Board (excluding an Acquiring
Person or a representative of any Acquiring Person), if such person’s nomination for election or
election to the Board is recommended or approved by a majority of the Continuing Directors.

7. Severance Compensation. In the event Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by the
Company pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, or by Executive pursuant to Section 6(c) or 6(e) hereof,
the Company shall (w) pay Executive a lump sum payment (the “Severance Payment”) of two (2) times
the highest annual salary and annual bonus amounts Executive received during the preceding three
years (less applicable income taxes), within thirty (30) days of such written notice, (x) continue
to pay and provide Executive with one year of health and dental insurance coverage (as reflected in
Section 4(B)(2) above) for a period of at least 12 months, (y) vest in full any installments of
shares under stock option agreements, stock, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and
all other awards granted to executive between Company and Executive which, but for this agreement,
would not yet be exercisable or vested on such date, and allow Executive to exercise said benefit,
in full, for the entire remaining period specified in such agreements (but in no event for a period
less than 3 months following such termination), and (z) pay an additional amount representing a
gross-up of any federal and state and local income tax liability arising from any amounts payable
pursuant to this Agreement which are considered to be a “parachute payment” under Internal Revenue
Code §280G and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

8. Confidential Information. Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the list of
Company’s customers, as it may exist from time to time, its financial data, and its future plans
and its trade secrets are valuable, special and unique assets of the Company. At no time will
Executive disclose any such list or information, or any part thereof to any person, firm,
corporation, association or other entity for any unauthorized reason or purpose whatsoever. In the
event of a breach or threatened breach by Executive of the provisions of this Paragraph, Company
shall notify Executive, in writing, of the nature of his breach of the provisions hereof, and if
such breach is repeated and continuing, shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Executive
from disclosing, in whole or in part, such list or information, or from rendering any services to
any person, firm, corporation, association or other entity to whom such list or information, in
whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed. Nothing herein shall be
construed as prohibiting Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach
or threatened breach, including recovery of damages from Executive.

9. No Duty to Mitigate; Set-off. The Company agrees that if the Executive’s employment is
terminated during the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall not be required to seek other
employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the Executive by the Company
pursuant to this Agreement. Further, the amount of the Severance Compensation provided for in this
Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive or benefit provided to
the Executive as the result of employment by another employer or otherwise. Except as otherwise
