WARRANT TO PURCHASE
COMMON STOCK

****<<NO OF SHARES>> Shares
of Common Stock****

 

THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES
THAT, for value received, the investor or registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and
purchase from Searchlight Minerals Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), up to and including the
number of fully paid and nonassessable, restricted shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”)
of the Company set forth above, at the exercise price of $0.30 per share ( the “Warrant Exercise Price”) (and
as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section III hereof), at any time or from time to time from the date first set forth above
(the “Issue Date”) and prior to or upon <<EXPIRATION DATE>> 2019 (the “Expiration Date”),
subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth:

 

I.      Method
of Exercise; Cash Payment; Issuance of New Warrant.

 

A.      Subject
to the provisions of this Warrant, the purchase right represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof, in whole
or in part and from time to time, at the election of the Holder hereof, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and executed) at the principal executive
offices of the Company and accompanied by payment to the Company, by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company, of
an amount equal to the then applicable Warrant Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then being purchased.

 

B.      The
person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing the shares of the Company’s capital stock to be issued
upon exercise of this Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”) shall be deemed to have become the holder(s) of record
of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of, the shares represented thereby (and such shares shall be
deemed to have been issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this Warrant is exercised.
In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall
be delivered to the Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within twenty (20) days after such exercise and, unless
this Warrant has been fully exercised or expired, a new warrant having the same terms as this Warrant and representing the remaining
portion of such shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to the
Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within such 20-day period.

 

II.          Reservation
of Shares. During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all
times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant
a sufficient number of shares of its capital stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

 

    	 

    	 

    

  

III.         Adjustment
of Warrant Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant
and the Warrant Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment to the nearest whole share (one-half and greater being rounded upward)
and nearest cent (one-half cent and greater being rounded upward) from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows.
Each of the adjustments provided by the subsections below shall be deemed separate adjustments and any adjustment of this
Warrant pursuant to one subsection of this Section III shall preclude additional adjustments for the same event or transaction
by the remaining subsections.

 

A.      Reclassification.
In case of any reclassification or change of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (other than a change
in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination)
into the same or a different number or class of securities, the Company shall duly execute and deliver to the Holder of this Warrant
a new warrant (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder of this Warrant), so that the Holder of this Warrant
shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, at a total purchase price not to exceed that payable upon
the exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification
or change by a holder of the number of shares then purchasable under this Warrant. The Company shall deliver such new warrant as
soon as possible and in any event within 20 days after such reclassification or change. Such new warrant shall provide for adjustments
that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section III. The provisions of
this subparagraph (A) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or changes.

 

B.      Stock
Splits or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide
(by stock split) or combine (by reverse stock split) its outstanding shares of capital stock of the class into which this Warrant
is exercisable, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the
case of a combination, effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective and the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision
or decreased in the case of a combination, and in each case to the nearest whole share, effective at the close of business on the
date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. The provisions of this subparagraph (B) shall similarly apply to successive
subdivisions or combinations of outstanding shares of capital stock into which this Warrant is exercisable.

 

C.      Common
Stock Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a dividend with respect
to Common Stock payable in Common Stock, then (i) the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination
of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution (the “Record Date”), to that price determined
by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator
of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and
(B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or
distribution and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted,
to the nearest whole share, from and after the Record Date by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder
immediately prior to such Record Date by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution. The provisions of this subparagraph (C) shall similarly
apply to successive Common Stock dividends by the Company.

IV.          Notice
of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder shall be
adjusted pursuant to Section III above, the Company shall deliver a written notice, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event
requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Warrant Exercise
Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause copies of such notice to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant within twenty (20) days after the
occurrence of the event resulting in such adjustment at such Holder’s last known address in accordance with Section IX hereof.

 

V.            Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares,
the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

 

VI.          Compliance
with Securities Act of 1933; Transfer of Warrant or Shares.

 

A.    Compliance
with Securities Act of 1933. The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, the Warrant Shares
and the capital stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) are being
acquired for investment and that such holder will not offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Securities except under
circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)
and any applicable state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, unless the Warrant Shares being acquired are registered
under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available, the Holder
hereof shall confirm in writing that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward
distribution or resale in violation of the Securities Act and shall confirm such other matters related thereto as may be reasonably
requested by the Company. The Warrant Shares (unless registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws)
shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED
HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD,
OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
ACT OR EVIDENCE SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

 

Such legend shall be removed by the Company,
upon the request of a Holder, at such time as the restrictions on the transfer of the applicable security shall have terminated.

 

B.     Transferability
of the Warrant. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Warrants shall be transferable to any other person with
the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

C.     Method
of Transfer. With respect to any offer, sale, transfer or other disposition of the Securities, the Holder hereof shall prior
to such offer, sale, transfer or other disposition:

 

(i)          surrender
this Warrant or certificate representing Warrant Shares at the principal executive offices of the Company or provide evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant or certificate representing Warrant Shares and an
indemnity agreement reasonable satisfactory to the Company,

 

(ii)         pay
any applicable transfer taxes or establish to the satisfaction of the Company that such taxes have been paid,

 

(iii)        deliver
a written assignment to the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B or appropriate stock power
duly completed and executed prior to transfer, describing briefly the manner thereof, and

 

    	-3-

    	 

    

  

(iv)        deliver
evidence, including a written opinion of such Holder’s counsel if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that
such offer, sale, transfer or other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Securities Act
as then in effect and any applicable state securities law then in effect) of the Securities.

 

As soon as reasonably
practicable after receiving the items set forth above, the Company shall notify the Holder that it may sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of the Securities, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been
made pursuant to this Section VI.C. that the opinion of counsel for the Holder or other evidence is not reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Holder promptly with details of such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Securities may, as to such federal laws, be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities
Act if the Company satisfied the provisions thereof and provided that the Holder shall furnish such information as the Company
may reasonably request to provide a reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate
representing this Warrant or Warrant Shares thus transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective registration
statement) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with applicable
federal and state securities laws, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel to the Holder and to the reasonable satisfaction
of the Company, such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with such laws. Upon any partial transfer of this Warrant,
the Company will issue and deliver to such new holder a new warrant (in form and substance similar to this Warrant) with respect
to the portion transferred and will issue and deliver to the Holder a new warrant (in form and substance similar to this Warrant)
with respect to the portion not transferred as soon as possible and in any event within 20 days after such transfer.

 

VII.         No
Rights as Shareholders; Information. Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant, as such, shall not be entitled
to vote the Warrant Shares or receive dividends on or be deemed the holder of such shares, nor shall anything contained herein
be construed to confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right
to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive notice
of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the shares
of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.

 

VIII.         Modification
and Waiver; Effect of Amendment or Waiver. This Warrant and any provision hereof may be modified, amended, waived, discharged
or terminated only by an instrument in writing, designated as an amendment to this Warrant and executed by a duly authorized officer
of the Company and the Holder of this Warrant. Any waiver or amendment effected in accordance with this Section VIII shall be binding
upon the Holder, each future holder of this Warrant or of any shares purchased under this Warrant (including securities into which
such shares have been converted) and the Company.

 

IX.          Notices.
Any notice, request, communication or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder hereof or the
Company shall be in the manner set forth in the Subscription Agreement between Company and Holder.

 

X.           Reorganizations.
In case of any reorganization of the Company, or in case of the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other legal
entity (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the continuing legal entity) or of the sale of the properties
and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other legal entity (collectively, "Reorganizations"),
each Warrant shall after such Reorganization be exercisable, upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant Certificate,
for the stock or other securities or property (including cash) to which a holder of the number of Common Shares purchasable (at
the time of such Reorganization) upon exercise of such Warrant would have been entitled upon such Reorganization if such Warrant
had been exercised in full immediately prior to such Reorganization; and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth
in this Section X with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of the Warrants shall be appropriately adjusted
so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to any such stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable
upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

    	-4-

    	 

    

  

XI.          Lost
Warrants or Stock Certificates. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of
an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender and cancellation
of such mutilated Warrant or stock certificate, the Company will issue and deliver a new warrant (containing the same terms as
this Warrant) or stock certificate, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant or stock certificate.

 

XII.         Descriptive
Headings. The descriptive headings of the several paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute
a part of this Warrant. The language in this Warrant shall be construed as to its fair meaning without regard to which party drafted
this Warrant.

 

XIII.         Governing
Law. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the
laws of the State of Nevada, without reference to principles governing choice or conflicts of laws.

 

XIV.         Entire
Agreement. This Warrant constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and undertakings of the parties,
whether oral or written, with respect to such subject matter.

 

XV.          No
Impairment. The Company will not, by an voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the
terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in carrying out
all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect
the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against impairment.

 

XVI.         Issue
Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other taxes payable in respect of any issue or delivery of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant that may be imposed under the laws of the United States of America or by any state, political
subdivision or taxing authority of the United States of America; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to pay any tax or taxes that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of any Warrant or certificates
for Common Stock in a name other than that of the registered holder of such Warrant, and no such issue or delivery shall be made
unless and until the person or entity requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or
shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

XVII.         Severability.
In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable in any respect, such provision(s) shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability,
without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant and such invalidity, illegality
or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, which shall remain in full force and effect.

 

XVIII.         Survival
of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations and warranties of the Company and the Holder hereof shall
survive the Issue Date of this Warrant, the exercise or conversion of this Warrant (or any part hereof) or the termination or expiration
of rights hereunder. All agreements of the Company and the Holder hereof contained herein shall survive indefinitely, until by
their respective terms, they are no longer operative.

 

XIX.         Counterparts.
This Warrant may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and all of which together shall constitute
one instrument.

This CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement” or “Severance Agreement”), dated as of the date set forth
below (“Effective Date”) between                      (“Employee”) and Alere Inc. (the “Company”), provides:

encouraged to remain with the Company in the event of a change in corporate structure which results in a Change of Control (as defined below); and 

WHEREAS, Employee wishes to have the protection provided for in this Agreement; and 

WHEREAS, in exchange for such protection, Employee is willing to give to the Company a release of all liability in the form attached hereto.

 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

(v) A finding by two-thirds of the Board of Directors of Employee’s knowing breach of any of Employee’s fiduciary duties to any
company in the Company Group (as defined below) or the Company’s stockholders or making of an intentional misrepresentation or omission which breach, misrepresentation or omission would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on the business, properties, assets, operations, 

 
condition (financial or other) or prospects of any company in the Company Group; 

(vi) Employee’s material and knowing failure to observe or comply with law applicable to the business of the Company as an officer or
employee of the Company which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business relationships, the business, properties, assets, operations, condition (financial or other), or prospects of any company in the Company
Group as determined by a majority of the Board of Directors or; 
 (vii) Employee’s willful gross misconduct relating to the business
of the Company that results in significant harm to the Company or its operation, properties, reputation, goodwill or business relationships as determined by a majority of the Board of Directors. 

Any determination made by the Board of Directors concerning the existence of Cause must be made in good faith and not for
purposes of evading the Company’s obligations hereunder; and a finding of Cause may not be made unless, prior to determining that Cause exists, the Employee shall be given written notice stating in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances
deemed by the Company to constitute Cause, and thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice Employee has failed to cure the facts and circumstances set forth in such notice after having an opportunity to consult with Company’s external

completion of the transaction hold, directly or indirectly, immediately after the transaction, 50% or less of the common equity interest in the surviving corporation in the transaction; or (vi) a change of the majority of the Board of Directors
as a result of a proxy contest, unless the election or nomination of the new directors has been approved by a majority vote of the Board of Directors in office at the time of the proxy contest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the fact that a
transaction or event is defined as a Change of Control for purposes of this Agreement shall not evidence or infer that the transaction or event constitutes a change of control for purposes of, including but not limited to, any
determination or definition of any regulatory or licensing agency, or for determining the duties of the Company’s Board of Directors under Delaware corporate law.

accordance with Company’s regular payroll periods and practices. The first payment to which Employee is entitled will be paid to Employee within a period that shall extend no more than ninety (90) days from the Termination Date so long as
the Release described in Attachment A has been executed and become irrevocable. To the extent that such ninety-day period spans two taxable years of the Employee, upon satisfaction of the Release requirement, payments shall not begin until the

Employee’s COBRA coverage terminates, the Company shall pay to Employee in each such month, within ten (10) days of the first day of such month, an amount equal to the full monthly COBRA premium for such month minus the active employee
monthly cost of such coverage. 
 c. In the event that Employee become entitled to severance payments under Section 3.a.
above, then all outstanding unvested equity-based compensation awards granted to Employee under any Company equity plan prior to the Termination Date shall become exercisable and vested in full, and all restrictions thereon shall lapse,
notwithstanding any vesting schedule or other provisions to the contrary in the agreements evidencing such awards, and the Company and Employee hereby agree that any agreements covering such awards are hereby, and will be deemed to be, amended to
give effect to this provision. In addition to the foregoing, any cash component of any awards granted to Employee under any Company executive incentive plan prior to the Termination Date shall become fully vested and, to the extent not already paid
to Employee, shall be accelerated and payment shall become due and owing to Employee. 

  
 4 

 d. The Company will provide Employee with outplacement support services through
Waldron & Company in the amount of three (3) months of High Impact Career Transition, providing Employee initiates the service within ninety (90) days of the Termination Date. 

e. In the event that Employee become entitled to severance payments under Section 3.a. above, then Employee shall be
released from, and no longer subject to, any non-competition provision contained in any previously signed agreement, and in particular, the provision contained in the Company’s standard form of Nondisclosure, Noncompetition and Developments
Agreement. 
 f. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if (i) Employee is a
“specified employee” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(i), and (ii) any amounts or benefits to be paid to Employee upon termination of employment without Cause or for Good Reason, as defined in this Agreement, do not
qualify for exemption from Section 409A or the delay in payment rule under the short-term deferral exception to deferred compensation of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4), the separation pay plan exception to deferred compensation of Treas. Reg.
§1.409A-1(b)(9), or otherwise, then payments of such amounts that are not exempt from Section 409A of the Code shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, but in no event earlier than the first to occur of (1) the
day after the six-month anniversary of Employee’s termination of employment, or (2) Employee’s death. Any payments delayed pursuant to the prior sentence shall be made in a lump sum, on the first business day after the six-month
anniversary of Employee’s termination of employment. 
 g. The parties hereto agree that the payments provided in
Section 3 hereof are reasonable compensation in light of the Employee’s services rendered to the Company and in consideration of the Employee’s adherence to the terms of this Agreement. Neither party shall contest the payment of such
benefits as constituting an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code. In the event that the Employee becomes entitled to the severance payments and other benefits described in this Section 3
(the “Compensation Payments”) and the Company has determined, based upon the advice of tax counsel selected by the Company’s independent auditors and acceptable to the Employee, that, as a result of such Compensation Payments and any
other benefits or payments required to be taken into account under Code Section 280G(b)(2) (“Parachute Payments”), any of such Parachute Payments must be reported by the Company as “excess parachute payments” and are
therefore not deductible by the Company, the Company shall pay to the Employee an additional amount (the “Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount retained by the Employee, after deduction of any of the tax imposed on the Employee by
Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”) and any Federal, state and local income tax and Excise Tax upon the Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the Parachute Payments determined prior to the application of this paragraph. The
value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Company’s independent auditors. For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Employee shall be deemed to pay Federal income
taxes at the highest marginal rate Federal income taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state and local 

  
 5 

 
income taxes at the highest marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of Employee’s residence on the Termination Date, net of the maximum reduction in Federal income taxes which
could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. In the event that the Excise Tax payable by the Employee is subsequently determined to be less than the amount, if any, taken into account hereunder at the time of termination of the
Employee’s employment, the Employee shall repay to the Company at the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is finally determined the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such reduction plus interest on the amount of
such repayment at the rate provided for in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code (“Repayment Amount”). In the event that the Excise Tax payable by the Employee is determined to exceed the amount, if any, taken into account hereunder at
the time of the termination of the Employee’s employment (including by reason of any payment the existence or amount of which cannot be determined at the time of the Gross-Up Payment), the Company shall make an additional Gross-Up Payment in
respect of such excess (plus any interest and penalty payable with respect to such excess) immediately prior to the time that the amount of such excess is required to be paid by the Employee (“Additional Gross-Up”), such that the net
amount retained by the Employee, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the Parachute Payments and any Federal, state and local income tax and Excise Tax upon the Additional Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the Parachute Payments determined prior
to the application of this paragraph. The obligation to pay any Repayment Amount or Additional Gross-up shall remain in effect under this Agreement for the entire period during which the Employee remains liable for the Excise Tax, including the
period during which any applicable statute of limitation remains open. 
 h. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, neither the time nor the schedule of any payment under this Agreement may be accelerated or subject to a further deferral except as provided in 26 C.F.R. § 1.409A-3
(j) (4). 
 i. Employee does not have any right to make any election regarding the time or form of any payment due under
this Agreement. 
 j. If the Company fails to make any payment under this Agreement, either intentionally or unintentionally,
within the time period specified in this Agreement, but the payment is made within the same calendar year, such payment will be treated as made within the time period specified in the Agreement pursuant to 26 C.F.R.
§ 1.409A-3(d). In addition, if a payment is not made due to a dispute with respect to such payment, the payment may be delayed in accordance with 26 C.F.R. §
1.409A-3(g). 
 k. For purposes of this Agreement, the determination of whether
Employee has terminated employment will be made in accordance with 26 C.F.R. § 1.409A-1(h)(1). 
 l. This Agreement
shall be administered in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and each provision of the Agreement shall be interpreted, to the extent possible, to comply with Section 409A. 

4. Release. In order to receive payments and benefits described in Section 3 after the Termination Date, Employee must execute a
Release in the form attached as Exhibit A and 

  
 6 

 
that Release must become effective. If the Release has not been executed and become irrevocable prior to the end of the 90-day period described in Section 3.a above, then Employee will
forfeit any right to the payments and benefits described in Section 3. 
 5. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees
to hold harmless and indemnify Employee to the fullest extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time. In furtherance of the foregoing indemnification, and without limiting the generality thereof: 

 

	 	a.	Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Employee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section l(a) if, by reason of Employee’s Corporate
Status (as hereinafter defined), the Employee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(a),
Employee shall be indemnified against all Expenses (as hereinafter defined), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by Employee, or on Employee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or
any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Employee acted in good faith and in a manner the Employee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe the Employee’s conduct was unlawful. 

  

	 	b.	Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Employee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 1(b) if, by reason of Employee’s Corporate Status, the Employee
is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(b), Employee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by
the Employee, or on the Employee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding if the Employee acted in good faith and in a manner the Employee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; provided,
however, if applicable law so provides, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Employee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and to
the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall determine that such indemnification may be made. 

  

	 	c.	 Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the
extent that Employee is, by reason of Employee’s Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, she shall be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to
time, against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Employee or on Employee’s behalf in connection therewith. If Employee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or

  
 7 

	 	
more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Employee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Employee or on Employee’s
behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be
deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter. 

  

	 	d.	All agreements and obligations of the Company contained in this Section 5 shall continue during the period Employee is an employee of the Company and shall continue thereafter so long as Employee shall be subject
to any Proceeding by reason of Employee’s Corporate Status, whether or not she is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement. The
indemnification provided by this Section 5 is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to
diminish or abrogate any rights of Employee thereunder. 

  

	 	e.	“Corporate Status” describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person is or was serving at the express written request of the Company. 

  

	 	f.	“Expenses” shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, witness fees, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs,
telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees and all other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating, participating, or being or
preparing to be a witness in a Proceeding, or responding to, or objecting to, a request to provide discovery in any Proceeding. Expenses also shall include Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any Proceeding, including
without limitation the premium, security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersede as bond, or other appeal bond or its equivalent. Expenses, however, shall not include amounts paid in settlement by Employee or the amount of
judgments or fines against Employee. 

  

	 	g.	 “Proceeding” includes any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution mechanism,
investigation, inquiry, administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought by or in the right of the Company or otherwise and whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which Employee
was, is or will be involved as a party or otherwise, by reason of Employee’s Corporate Status, by reason of any 

  
 8 

	 	
action taken by Employee or of any inaction on Employee’s part while acting in Employee’s Corporate Status; in each case whether or not Employee is acting or serving in any such
capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement. 

6. No Obligation to Mitigate Damages; No Effect on Other Contractual Rights. 

a. All compensation and benefits provided to the Employee under this Agreement are in consideration of the Employee’s
services rendered to the Company and of the Employee’s adhering to the terms of this Agreement and the Employee shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment
or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by the Employee as the result of employment by another employer after the Termination Date, or otherwise. 

b. The provisions of this Agreement, and any payment provided for hereunder, shall not reduce any amounts otherwise payable, or
in any way diminish the Employee’s existing rights, or rights which would accrue solely as a result of the passage of time, under any benefit plan, incentive plan, employment agreement or other contract, plan or agreement. 

7. Successors; Binding Agreement. 

a. The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, upon or prior to such succession, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would have been required to perform
it if no such succession had taken place. A copy of such assumption and agreement shall be delivered to Employee promptly after its execution by the successor. Failure of the Company to obtain such agreement, upon or prior to the effectiveness of
any such succession, shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle Employee to benefits from the Company in the same amounts and on the same terms as Employee would be entitled hereunder if Employee terminated Employee’s employment for
Good Reason. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Termination Date. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any
successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Section 5.a or which otherwise becomes bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of law. 

b. This Agreement is personal to Employee and Employee may not assign or delegate any part of Employee’s rights or duties hereunder to
any other person, except that this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee’s legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs and beneficiaries. 

  
 9 

 8. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, to any
person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable
shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

9. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the
meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more identical
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 11.
Waiver. Neither any course of dealing nor any failure or neglect of either party hereto, in any instance, to exercise any right, power or privilege hereunder or under law shall constitute a waiver of such right, power or privilege or
of any other right, power or privilege or of the same right, power or privilege in any other instance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Employee’s continued employment without objection shall not constitute Employee’s
consent to, or a waiver of Employee’s rights with respect to, any circumstances constituting Good Reason, provided that Employee gives notice as required in Section 1.f. All waivers by either party hereto must be contained in a written
instrument signed by the party to be charged therewith. 
 12. Entire Agreement. This instrument constitutes the entire
agreement of the parties in this matter and shall supersede any other agreement between the parties, oral or written, concerning the same subject matter.  

13. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended only by a writing which makes express reference to this Agreement as the subject of such
amendment and which is signed by Employee and the Company. 
 14. Governing Law. In light of Company’s and Employee’s
substantial contacts with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the fact that the Company is headquartered in Massachusetts, the parties’ interests in ensuring that disputes regarding the interpretation, validity and enforceability of this
Agreement are resolved on a uniform basis, and Company’s execution of, and the making of, this Agreement in Massachusetts, the parties agree that: (i) any legal proceeding involving any noncompliance with or breach of the Agreement, or
regarding the interpretation, validity and/or enforceability of the Agreement, shall be filed and conducted exclusively in the state of Massachusetts; and (ii) the Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard for any conflict/choice of law principles.

 Exhibit A 

RELEASE 
 This RELEASE (the

                         (“Employee”) and Alere Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”); 

WHEREAS, the Company and Employee are parties to a Change of Control Severance Agreement dated
                 , 2014 (the “Severance Agreement”), which provides certain protection to Employee in the event of management transition and thereafter and in
the event there is any change in corporate structure which results in a Change of Control of the Company; and, 
 WHEREAS, the execution of
this Release is a condition precedent to, and material inducement to, the Company’s provision of certain payments and benefits under the Severance Agreement; 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1. Mutual Promises. The Company undertakes the obligations contained in the Severance Agreement, which are in addition to any

2. Release of Claims; Agreement Not to File Suit. 

a. Employee, for and on behalf of Employee and Employee’s heirs, beneficiaries, executors, administrators, successors,
assigns and anyone claiming through or under any of the foregoing, agrees to, and does, release and forever discharge the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, each of their shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and
representatives, and its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Released Persons”), from any and all matters, claims, demands, damages, causes of action, debts, liabilities, controversies, judgments and suits of every kind and
nature whatsoever, foreseen or unforeseen, known or unknown, which have arisen or could arise from matters which occurred prior to the date of this Release, which matters include without limitation: (i) the matters covered by the Severance
Agreement and this Release, (ii) Employee’s employment, and/or termination from employment with the Company, and (iii) any claims which might otherwise arise in the future as a result of arrangements or agreements in effect as of the
date of this Release or the continuance of such arrangements and agreements. 
 b. Employee, for and on behalf of Employee
and Employee’s heirs, beneficiaries, executors, administrators, successors, assigns, and anyone claiming through or under any of the foregoing, agrees that Employee will not file or otherwise submit any claim, complaint, arbitration demand, or
action to any court, organization, or judicial forum (nor will Employee permit any person, group of persons, or organization to take such action on Employee’s behalf) against any Company Released Person arising out of any actions or non-actions on the part of any Company Released Person arising before the date of this Release or any action taken after the date of this Release pursuant to the 

  
 12 

 
Severance Agreement. Employee further agrees that in the event that any person or entity should bring such a charge, claim, complaint, or action on Employee’s behalf, Employee hereby waives

releasing any rights she may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, (“ADEA”). Employee also acknowledges that the consideration given for the waiver and release in the Severance Agreement is in addition to
anything of value to which she is would be entitled to without this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that Employee is advised by this writing, as required by the ADEA, that: (a) this waiver and release do not apply to any rights or
claims that may arise after the execution date of this Agreement; (b) Employee has been advised of having had the right to consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement; (c) Employee has twenty-one (21) days to consider
this Agreement (although Employee may choose to voluntarily 

  
 13 

 
execute this Agreement earlier); (d) Employee has seven (7) days following the signing of this Agreement by the parties to revoke the Agreement; and (e) this Agreement shall not be
effective until the date upon which the revocation period has expired, which shall be the eighth day after this Agreement is executed by the Employee. 

5. Severability. If any provision of this Release or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent be held
to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Release and the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of
this Release shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

8. Entire Agreement. This Release and related Severance Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties in this matter and
shall supersede any other agreement between the parties, oral or written, concerning the same subject matter.
