WHEREAS, the Company wishes to grant Holder an option (the “Option”) to purchase shares of its common stock, par value $.0033 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Grant and Signature Page, this Agreement and the Amendment and Restatement of The 2001 Incentive Award Plan of Actavis Inc., as amended from time to time (the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement, the “Plan”); and

WHEREAS, it has been determined that it would be to the advantage and best interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant Holder the Option as an inducement to enter into or remain in the service of the Company or its Subsidiaries and as an incentive for increased efforts during such service.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

GRANT OF OPTION

Section 1.1 - Grant of Option and Purchase Price.  The Company grants to Holder the option to purchase any part or all of an aggregate of that many shares of Common Stock as set forth on the Notice of Grant and Signature Page hereto, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The per share purchase price of the shares of Common Stock covered by the Option shall be as set forth on the Notice of Grant and Signature Page hereto, without commission or other charge.

Section 1.2 - Consideration to Company.  In consideration of the granting of this Option by the Company, Holder agrees to render faithful and efficient services to the Company or a Subsidiary, with such duties and responsibilities as the Company shall from time to time prescribe, for a period of at least one (1) year from the date this Option is granted. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon Holder any right to continue in the employ or engagement of the Company or any Subsidiary, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the engagement with Holder at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.

ARTICLE II

PERIOD OF EXERCISABILITY

Section 2.1 - Exercisability.  Subject to Section 2.2, Section 4.5 and the terms of any written agreement between the Company and Holder relating to the exercisability of the Option, the Option shall become exercisable as set forth in the Notice of Grant and Signature Page hereto. No portion of the Option which is unexercisable at Termination of Employment shall thereafter become exercisable. Each such installment which becomes exercisable pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall remain exercisable until it becomes unexercisable under Section 2.2 or the Plan.

(i)          The expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option was granted;

(ii)          Except in the case of Holder’s disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) or as set forth in Sections 2.2(a)(iv) and (v), the expiration of three (3) months from the date of Holder’s Termination of Employment, unless Holder dies within said three month period;

(iii)         In the case of Holder’s disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), the expiration of one (1) year from the date of Holder’s Termination of Employment by reason of Holder’s disability;

(iv)         The expiration of one (1) year from the date of Holder’s death; or

(b)       If, upon Holder’s Termination of Employment, Holder has completed five or more years of continuous service with the Company or a Subsidiary, subsection (a) shall not apply, and the Option may not be exercised to any extent by anyone after the first to occur of the following events:

(i)          The expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option was granted; or

(ii)         The expiration of two (2) years from the date of Holder’s Termination of Employment.

Holder further acknowledges that the rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking options into account in the order in which they were granted. For purposes of these rules, the Fair Market Value of stock shall be determined as of the time the option with respect to such stock is granted.

OTHER PROVISIONS

Section 4.1 – Administration.  The Administrator shall have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement, and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith, to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules and to amend this Agreement provided that the rights or obligations of Holder are not affected adversely.
