On December 21, 2016, Endo International plc (“Endo”) announced that Susan Hall has decided to terminate her employment by Endo to pursue other opportunities. Effective as of December 21, 2016, Ms. Hall will cease serving as Executive Vice President, Chief Scientific Officer and Global Head of Research & Development and Quality, following which time she will serve as Strategic Advisor for Branded Pharmaceuticals until her last day of employment on March 31, 2017 (the “Termination Date”). A copy of Endo’s press release announcing Ms. Hall’s departure is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
In connection with Ms. Hall’s departure, Endo Health Solutions Inc. (the “Company”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Endo, entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release with Ms. Hall, dated as of December 21, 2016 (the “Separation Agreement”). Under the Separation Agreement, subject to Ms. Hall executing and not revoking a release of claims, Ms. Hall will be entitled to the following payments and benefits: a prorated 2017 bonus (based on actual results), severance in an amount equal to two times the sum of her base salary and target bonus, continued medical and life insurance benefits for two years following the Termination Date, reasonable expenses incurred by Ms. Hall for the transportation of her personal items from Dublin, Ireland, reimbursement for tax preparation services in respect of 2016 and 2017, and reimbursement for certain termination costs. In addition, Ms. Hall’s outstanding equity awards will be treated in accordance with the applicable equity plans and award agreements. Under the Separation Agreement, Ms. Hall has agreed to serve as a consultant to the Company for six months following the Termination Date, for which she will receive an aggregate amount equal to $250,000, payable in equal monthly installments. The Separation Agreement includes a provision concerning indemnification and covenants not to solicit, not to compete, not to disparage and to cooperate with Endo and its affiliates.
