3 2. TERMS OF SEVERANCE PROGRAMME 2.1 Statutory Redundancy Employees with 104 weeks or more weeks’ continuous service with the Company are eligible for a statutory redundancy payment. Statutory Redundancy is calculated on the basis of: - a. Two weeks pay for each year of service plus b. One week’s additional pay. Statutory Redundancy is calculated by reference to your continuous years of service and is based on your actual gross weekly wage at the date of your notification of redundancy. There is a statutory ceiling of €600 per week; any excess of this limit is not included in the calculation of your statutory redundancy payment – e.g. if an employee’s basic pay is €650 per week the €600 amount is used. Statutory Payment is based on years of reckonable service. If the total amount of reckonable service is not an exact number of years, the “excess” days are credited as a proportion of a year. Reckonable service includes the following: ❖ All or part of a week an employee is at work ❖ Period of up to 52 consecutive weeks absence due to occupational injury ❖ Period of up to 26 weeks due to illness or non occupational injury ❖ Any authorised absences by the employer which includes holidays, compassionate leave, career break or short-time ❖ Any periods whilst an employee is on protected leave – including maternity, additional maternity leave, parental leave, carer’s leave and adoptive leave.

6 2.3 Notice Periods Your notice period is as stated in your individual contract of employment (e.g., a month for employee’s in Bands 1 to 3 or 3 months notice for employee’s at Associate Director or above). The Minimum Notice & Terms of Employment Act lays down statutory minimum periods of notice which are dependent on an employee’s length of service as follows: Length of Service Notice Period 13 weeks but less than 2 years 1 weeks notice 2 years but less than 5 years 2 weeks notice 5 years but less than 10 years 4 weeks notice 10 years but less than 15 years 6 weeks notice 15 years or more 8 weeks notice You will be entitled to receive the higher of the two notice periods. For example, if you have 2 month’s notice under your contract of employment but have 5 years service with the Company you will be entitled to the 2 month’s notice. Employees are expected to be available for and to work at a minimum 2 weeks of their notice period; however, the Company ultimately reserves the right to make payment in lieu of notice periods in full or part. Where an employee on their own request seeks an earlier release date and the Company agrees to facilitate this, no payments shall be made in lieu of notice period. When monies are paid in lieu of notice the date of termination for Statutory Redundancy purposes is the date in which the minimum notice (identified in the above table), had it been given, would have expired. Notice required under the Redundancy Acts may run concurrently with other notice requirements.

7 3. WHAT HAPPENS TO ALL BENEFITS The following list will advise eligible employees on how each Perrigo benefit will be treated. Please review the following details to ensure you fully understand the status of each benefit that may apply to you. Please Note: Where these benefits continue for a period of time after you have left Perrigo payroll due to being paid in lieu of notice – existing benefits will remain in place until your termination of employment. Pension (including AVCs) Employer contributions to your pension fund will be paid up until the termination of your employment. In addition, employee contributions will also continue to be deducted from your payroll up until your termination date. Upon termination Mercer will send you out a withdrawal statement to your home address within a couple of weeks. This statement will outline all pension options available to you. As your pension entitlement can impact your overall tax liability, with regard to any severance lump sum payment that you may receive, the Company will make arrangements for a representative of Mercer to be on site to provide you with information and advice on the options available to you. Prior to this meeting with Mercer, individual details will be submitted to Mercer to determine pension augmentation options and tax implications. Life Assurance You will continue to have Death in Service Benefit up until your termination date (inclusive of notice period). In addition, Perrigo has arranged to provide you with a special Death in Service Benefit for a period of 6 months from your termination date at the end which the extended cover will automatically lapse. This special Death in Service benefit cover will be based on your salary at the date of leaving and the level of cover will be four times your salary. Please note that where underwriting is in place and terms of cover are less than four times salary these terms will automatically be carried forward into this extended cover. Once the six-month extended cover has been reached you have the option to continue part or all of your death benefit under the scheme however a Statement of Health form and/or medical examination will be required. This option remains available to you for one month after your leaving date. If you wish to continue part or all of your cover after this date, please discuss this with Mercer directly and they can arrange to prepare a quotation for you. We strongly encourage you to ensure that alternative life cover is put in place before the extended period finishes. Disability Benefit/ Permanent Health Insurance You will have Disability Benefit cover up until your termination date (inclusive of notice period). After this period, your cover under the Perrigo plan will cease. Health Insurance Your current health insurance cover will remain in place up until your date of termination.

In addition, any health insurance allowance being paid to you via payroll will cease as of your termination date. If you currently are not paying for health insurance cover via payroll deduction and instead are paying the health insurer directly please ensure that you submit a health insurance allowance claim form along with proof of payment immediately to HR or Payroll in order to claim for any health insurance allowance that may be due to you. This allowance would be processed in your final payroll (subject to applicable withholdings).

9 4. REDUNDANCY TAXATION The following is a general description of the Irish tax consequences of severance payments and is based on Irish tax law in effect at December 2019 This should not be construed as tax advice. The actual tax consequences of a severance payment will depend on an individual’s specific facts and circumstances and you should contact your own tax adviser in this regard. Statutory redundancy and certain ex-gratia lump sums may be subject to favourable tax exemptions and reliefs on termination. Severance packages generally form two parts – Statutory Redundancy and an additional ex-gratia payment that may be made available by an employer. Statutory redundancy payments are exempt from income tax, if due. The current tax rules relating to severance in excess of statutory redundancy are somewhat complex. A brief summary of the main tax exemptions and reliefs available on the additional ex-gratia payment that an employer may provide are outlined below. Employees may also be entitled to claim the highest of the following three tax exemptions, on the additional ex- gratia amount: a) Basic Exemption, or b) Increased Exemption, or c) Standard Capital Superannuation Benefit The tax exemptions relevant to an individual are based on personal circumstances, for example years’ service in the employment, remuneration, pension entitlements. These tax exemptions are calculated using complete years’ service only. The date of termination for tax exemption purposes is the date that the employment actually ceases and the individual leaves the employment. It should be noted that the total exemptions an employee can claim over their lifetime is capped at €200,000. The Increased Exemption is also restricted if the employee claimed any tax exemption other than the Basic Exemption in the last 10 years. a) Basic Exemption: The basic exemption is €10,160 plus €765 for each complete year of service with the Company. If we take the example of a person who joined the Company in December 2001 and leaves the Company in 2013, they would have 11 full years of service, so their basic exemption would be €10,160 plus €765 x 11 = €18,575. b) Increased Exemption: The basic exemption of €10,160, plus €765 for each full year of service can be increased by a further €10,000. The increased exemption is only available to individuals who have not made any claims in respect of a lump sum received in the previous ten tax years.

Photo -- slide11 -- irishseveranceprogrammea011.jpg

10 If you are a member of the Company pension scheme, the increased exemption of €10,000 is reduced by the amount of: • Any tax-free lump sum from the pension scheme to which you may be immediately entitled or • The present day value at the date of leaving employment of any tax-free lump sum which may be receivable from the pension scheme in the future. Employees will have the option of waiving their entitlements to their tax-free lump sum from the Company pension scheme in order to avail of the full €10,000 increased exemption. A waiver form must be signed in this regard. If the lump sum from the pension scheme is more than €10,000 and you do not waive your entitlement to same, you are not due the increased exemption. Revenue approval is required for the Increased Exemption. c) SCSB (Standard Capital Superannuation Benefit): This relief generally applies to those employees who have high earnings and/or long service with the Company. The formula for calculating the SCSB is: A X B / 15 - C Where: A is the average annual remuneration for the last 36 months service to the date of termination B is the number of complete years of service C is the value of any tax-free lump sum received/receivable under the Company approved pension scheme. Because of the interaction of taxation and your pension it is important that you receive independent advice on this. The Company will engage the services of Mercer to provide you with guidance in this area.
