Dear Pete:

Based on our recent discussions, we have mutually agreed to amend the letter agreement between you and the company dated March 4, 2015 (the “Original Letter”). This letter will confirm the terms of the amendment of the Original Letter. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined will have the meaning given to such terms in the Original Letter.

We have agreed that that the Separation Date will be May 31, 2015 except as described below. Your employment with MJN and its affiliates will not be terminated by MJN (or any of its affiliates) prior to May 31, 2015 without Cause.

We will continue to pay you your Salary Continuation Severance in the amount of $177,042 ($50,583.33 per month, pro rated for partial months) over the period ending on June 30, 2015 even though the Separation Date has been changed to May 31, 2015. In addition, there shall be no changes to the commencement date or the payment timing for any payments or benefits under the Original Letter as a result of the change to the Separation Date if, or to the extent that, such payments or benefits are subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Attached are revised Attachments I, IV, V and VI which replace the corresponding attachments to the Original Letter to reflect the change to the Separation Date.
As required by the Original Letter, you will be required to re-sign the general release (Attachment II of the Original Letter).
Except as described herein, all other provisions of the Original Letter, including all Attachments thereto, will remain in effect.
If you have any questions concerning this letter or any of the arrangements surrounding your separation from the company, please feel free to contact me directly. Please indicate your agreement with the terms of this letter as an amendment of the Original Letter (including amendments to the applicable Attachments thereto) by signing below and returning a signed copy of this letter to me prior to May 31, 2015.
Sincerely,
/s/ Ian Ormesher
