(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement or as otherwise expressly agreed to in writing between the Parties, (i) effective as of the Effective Time, each of EHP and each other member of the EHP Group shall cease to be a Participating Employer in the EPC Benefit Plans, and (ii) each EHP Employee and former EHP Employee as of the Effective Time shall cease to participate in, be covered by, accrue benefits under, be eligible to contribute to or have any other rights under any EPC Benefit Plan, and EPC and EHP shall take all necessary action to effectuate each such cessation.

Qualified Pension Plans

In an effort to ensure that, to the extent practical, after the Effective Time individuals will have all of their accrued benefits in a single plan, certain actions will be taken with respect to the Retirement Plan of EPC and the EHP Retirement Plan to make appropriate transfers of plan assets and Liabilities.

Section 3.01 Defined Benefit Pension Plans.

(a) After the Effective Time, EPC Participants shall continue to participate in the Retirement Plan of EPC.

(b) EHP (acting directly or through a member of the EHP Group) shall establish a defined benefit pension plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (“EHP Retirement Plan”) to be effective as of the Effective Time to provide pension benefits for the EHP Participants in the Retirement Plan of EPC immediately prior to the Effective Time. After the Effective Time, EHP Participants who participate in the Retirement Plan of EPC shall cease to participate in the Retirement Plan of EPC and shall participate in the EHP Retirement Plan, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of such plan. EHP shall take all necessary steps to have the EHP Retirement Plan accept assets and Liabilities from the Retirement Plan of EPC (based on a good faith actuarial estimate of accrued benefits as of the date set forth on Schedule G for such purpose) representing any benefits accrued by individuals who are EHP Employees and former EHP Employees in accordance with the Allocation Method and whose names are set forth on Schedule G for such purpose (“Transferred Participants”). An initial transfer of assets and Liabilities shall occur on or before the date that is three months after the Effective Time (“Retirement Spin Date”). As soon as practicable after the Retirement Spin Date, EHP shall take all necessary steps to have the EHP Retirement Plan accept assets and Liabilities from the Retirement Plan of EPC based on a final actuarial calculation representing any benefits accrued by Transferred Participants. EHP, on its own behalf and on behalf of all members of the EHP Group, agrees that neither EPC nor the Retirement Plan of EPC shall have any further responsibility with respect to the assets and liabilities that are transferred from the Retirement Plan of EPC to the EHP Retirement Plan. From and after the Effective Time until the Retirement Spin Date, any benefits accrued prior to the Effective Time that

would otherwise be payable to Transferred Participants under the EHP Retirement Plan shall be paid or continue to be paid out of the Retirement Plan of EPC, and the amounts to be transferred to the EHP Retirement Plan shall be reduced by the amount of such payments. After the Retirement Spin Date, any pension benefits that accrued prior to the Effective Time that would have otherwise been payable to the Transferred Participants under the Retirement Plan of EPC shall instead be payable to such Transferred Participants under the EHP Retirement Plan.

(c) The Parties agree that with respect to such transfer, assets and any related earnings or losses shall be determined and transferred from the plan’s trust in accordance with Section 414(l) of the Code, Treasury Regulation Section 1.414(l)-1, Section 208 of ERISA and the assumptions and valuation methodology which the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation would have used under Section 4044 of ERISA as of the Effective Time as determined by the Actuary and set forth in Schedule G.

(d) As of the Effective Time, EHP (acting directly or through a member of the EHP Group) shall cause the EHP Retirement Plan to recognize, to the extent practicable, all existing elections, including beneficiary designations, payment form elections and rights of alternate payees under qualified domestic relations orders with respect to EHP Participants under the Retirement Plan of EPC.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall EHP or the EHP Retirement Plan or any other EHP Benefit Plan assume, accept, or otherwise be responsible for any assets or Liabilities with respect to the ASR Plans on or following the Effective Time. The ASR Plans shall be EPC Benefit Plans before, on and following the Effective Time.

Section 3.02 Defined Contribution Plans.

EHP (acting directly or through a member of the EHP Group) shall establish the EHP SIP which shall be effective as of the Effective Time. EHP shall take all necessary steps for the EHP SIP to accept from the EPC SIP, and EPC shall take all necessary steps for the EPC SIP to directly transfer to the EHP SIP, assets and Liabilities, including participant loans, representing any benefits accrued by individuals who are EHP Participants in the EPC SIP immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Article IV

Non-Qualified Plans

EHP (acting directly or through a member of the EHP Group) shall establish the EHP Excess Benefit Plan effective as of the Effective Time, with terms substantially similar to those under the EPC Excess Benefit Plan.

Section 4.02 Deferred Compensation Plans.

EHP (acting directly or through a member of the EHP Group) shall establish the EHP Deferred Compensation Plan effective as of the Effective Time, with terms substantially similar to those under the EPC Deferred Compensation Plan.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each non-employee director of EPC who is to be assigned to either EHP or EPC after the Effective Time (but not both) shall be given the choice prior to the Effective Time to have any units in the EPC Deferred Compensation Plan stock fund treated as follows: (i) such units reissued as or converted (as applicable) into units relating to the common stock of the company to which such director shall be assigned and otherwise adjusted with the conversion methodology described below in Section 11.02, (ii) each such unit continuing to relate to the number of shares of EPC common stock subject to the unit immediately prior to the Effective Time, and in accordance with the distribution ratio applicable to stockholders generally, the director will be granted additional units that relate to an equal number of shares of EHP common stock, or (iii) such units reissued or converted such that half of the aggregate value of such unit (determined using the conversion methodology described in Section 11.02) is reissued or converted into EPC units and the other half of the aggregate value of such unit is reissued or converted into EHP common stock units, in either case, to be effective upon the Effective Time. Any units in the EPC Deferred Compensation Plan stock fund with respect to any non-employee director of EPC to be assigned to both EPC and EHP after the Effective Time shall be subject to conversion under subsection (ii) or (iii) (but not (i)) above, to be effective upon the Effective Time. Except as provided above, all units reissued or converted as described above shall be governed by substantially the same terms, vesting conditions, and other restrictions that applied to the original awards immediately prior to the Effective Time. Any such units denominated in EPC common stock or EHP common stock will be assumed and settled under the plans of the company for which the director serves as a director following the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each non-employee director of EPC who is to be assigned to both EPC and EHP shall have any units denominated in EPC common stock assumed and settled under the plans of EPC and shall have any units denominated in EHP common stock assumed and settled under the plans of EHP following the Effective Time.

Each EHP Participant who is

a participant in and maintains a flexible spending account for medical or dependent care expenses under an EPC Reimbursement Account Plan shall cease participating in the EPC Reimbursement Account Plans effective as of the Distribution, and shall commence participation in the EHP Reimbursement Account Plans.

As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, EPC shall determine the Aggregate Balance (as defined below) of the assumed EPC Reimbursement Account Plans and notify EHP of the amount of such Aggregate Balance in writing. For purposes of this Section, the term “Aggregate Balance” shall mean, as of the Effective Time, the aggregate amount of contributions that have been made to the EHP Participants’ flexible spending accounts under EPC’s Reimbursement Account Plans for the plan year in which the Distribution Date occurs minus the aggregate amount of reimbursements that have been made from the EHP Participants’ flexible spending accounts under the EPC Reimbursement Account Plan to EHP Participants for the plan year in which the Distribution Date occurs. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event within thirty (30) days after the amount of the Aggregate Balance is determined or such later date as mutually agreed upon by the Parties, EPC shall pay EHP the net Aggregate Balance, if such amount is positive, and EHP shall pay EPC the net Aggregate Balance, if such amount is negative.

Article XI

Incentive Compensation Plans

Section 11.01 Equity Incentive Awards.

This Article XI sets forth obligations and agreements between the Parties with respect to the treatment of outstanding equity incentive awards under the EPC Stock Plans and of outstanding bonus awards as of the Effective Time. The Parties acknowledge that the ability of holders of Equity Awards to (i) receive shares or common stock issued by EPC or EHP upon the vesting of an Equity Award or (ii) direct that shares of common stock be sold upon vesting of an Equity Award may be subject to delays or limitations for administrative reasons during blackout periods imposed by the Parties or applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XI, the number of shares subject to each equity award, and the terms and conditions of settlement of awards, shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

Section 11.02 Treatment of Outstanding Restricted Stock Units.

(a) EPC RSUs which are held by any EPC Employee or former EPC Employee shall be reissued with an adjustment in a manner to reflect the intrinsic value of such award as of the Effective Time, as determined by the Board of Directors of EPC in accordance with the conversion methodology below. The other terms and conditions to which each EPC RSU is subject shall be substantially similar both immediately prior to and following the Effective Time; provided, however, that any performance-based EPC RSU that would otherwise vest in November 2016 based on the achievement of certain performance-criteria will be converted to time-based vesting instead of performance-based vesting in the conversion. In addition, any restricted stock unit, restricted stock equivalent or similar awards which are held by any Non-US EPC Employee or former Non-US EPC Employee (as determined under the Separation Agreement) shall be treated in a manner similar to the foregoing, including that they shall be reissued with an adjustment in a manner to reflect the intrinsic value of such award as of the Effective Time, as determined by the Board of Directors of EPC in accordance with the conversion methodology below or a substantially similar process as would be required under local or other applicable law or otherwise appropriate under such local jurisdiction.

(b) EPC RSUs which are held by an EHP Employee or a former EHP Employee shall be reissued and converted into restricted stock units or equivalents of EHP (“EHP RSUs”) and adjusted in a manner to reflect the intrinsic value of such award as of the Effective Time, as determined by the Board of Directors of EPC in accordance with the conversion methodology below. EHP RSUs shall otherwise be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions after the Effective Time as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding EPC RSUs immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that any performance-based EPC RSU that would otherwise vest in November 2016 based on the achievement of certain performance-criteria will be converted to time-based vesting instead of performance-based vesting in the conversion. In addition, any restricted stock unit, restricted stock equivalent or similar awards which are held by any Non-US EHP Employee or former Non-US EHP Employee (as determined under the Separation Agreement) shall be treated in a manner similar to the foregoing, including that they shall be reissued with an adjustment in a manner to reflect the intrinsic value of such award as of the Effective Time, as determined by the Board of Directors of EPC in accordance with the conversion methodology below or a substantially similar process as would be required under local or other applicable law or otherwise appropriate under such local jurisdiction.

(c) The conversion methodology shall be in accordance with the following. A VWAP of EPC common stock trading “regular-way” on the five (5) Trading Days prior to the Effective Time shall be used to determine the “per share value.” A VWAP of EPC common stock or EHP common stock, as applicable in the conversion, on the five (5) Trading Days after the Effective Time shall be used to determine the “per share conversion value.” The number of shares with respect to which the original award relates shall be multiplied by the “per share value,” with the result divided by the “per share conversion value” to determine the number of shares with respect to which the new award shall relate in converting the original award into the new award.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each non-employee director of EPC who is to be assigned to either EHP or EPC after the Effective Time (but not both) shall be given the choice prior to the Effective Time to have any EPC RSUs treated as follows: (i) such awards

reissued as or converted (as applicable) into awards relating to the common stock of the company to which such director shall be assigned and otherwise adjusted in accordance with the conversion methodology applicable to employee awards, (ii) each such award continuing to relate to the number of shares of EPC common stock subject to the award immediately prior to the Effective Time, and in accordance with the distribution ratio applicable to stockholders generally, the director will be granted additional awards or units that relate to an equal number of shares of EHP common stock, or (iii) such awards reissued or converted such that half of the aggregate value of such award (determined using the conversion methodology above) is reissued or converted into awards relating to EPC common stock and the other half of the aggregate value of such award is reissued or converted into awards relating to EHP common stock, in either case, to be effective upon the Effective Time. Any EPC RSUs with respect to any nonemployee director of EPC to be assigned to both EPC and EHP after the Effective Time shall be subject to conversion under subsection (d)(ii) or (iii) (but not (i)) above, to be effective upon the Effective Time. Except as provided above, all awards reissued or converted as described in this subsection shall be governed by substantially the same terms, vesting conditions and other restrictions that applied to the original awards immediately prior to the Effective Time. Any such awards to be settled in or otherwise based on the value of EPC common stock or EHP common stock will be assumed and settled under the plans of the company for which the director serves as a director following the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each non-employee director of EPC who is to be assigned to both EPC and EHP shall have any awards denominated in EPC common stock assumed and settled under the plans of EPC and shall have any awards denominated in EHP common stock assumed and settled under the plans of EHP following the Effective Time.

Section 11.03 Liabilities for Settlement of Awards.

Except as provided above with respect to non-employee directors or in Section 11.05 regarding Tax Withholding and Reporting for Equity-Based Awards:

(a) EPC shall be responsible for all Liabilities associated with EPC RSUs (regardless of the holder of such awards) share delivery, registration or other obligations related to the settlement of the EPC RSUs, as applicable.

(b) EHP shall be responsible for all Liabilities associated with EHP RSUs (regardless of the holder of such awards) including any share delivery, registration or other obligations related to the settlement or exercise of the EHP RSUs, as applicable.

Section 11.04 SEC Registration.

The Parties mutually agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain effective registration statements with the SEC with respect to the long-term incentive awards described in this Article XI, to the extent any such registration statement is required by applicable Law. EPC shall be responsible for taking all appropriate action to continue to maintain and administer the EPC Stock Plans and the awards granted thereunder so that they comply with applicable Law, including continued compliance with, and qualification under, Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933. EHP shall be responsible for taking all appropriate action (a) to adopt and administer the EHP Incentive Compensation Plan and the awards granted thereunder (including by way of conversion pursuant to this Article XI) so

that it and they comply with applicable Law, including compliance with, and qualification under, Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and (b) to register the shares for issuance under the EHP Incentive Compensation Plan or any other equity-based plan of EHP (including shares acquired by conversion pursuant to this Article XI), including the filing of a registration statement on an appropriate form with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Section 11.05 Tax Reporting and Withholding for Equity-Based Awards.

EPC (or one of its Subsidiaries) will be responsible for all income, payroll or other tax reporting related to income of EPC Employees from equity-based awards, and EHP (or one of its Subsidiaries) will be responsible for all income, payroll or other tax reporting related to income of EHP Employees from equity-based awards. Further, EPC (or one of its Subsidiaries) shall be responsible for remitting applicable tax withholdings for EPC Employees to each applicable taxing authority, and EHP (or one of its Subsidiaries) shall be responsible for remitting applicable tax withholdings for EHP Employees to each applicable taxing authority. EPC and EHP will communicate with each other and with third-party providers to effectuate withholding and remittance of taxes, as well as required tax reporting, in a timely, efficient and appropriate manner.

Section 11.06 Bonus Awards.

EHP Employees participating in any bonus plans maintained by EPC immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue to be eligible to participate in such plans until immediately prior to the Effective Time. The EPC Committee shall determine the amount of the awards payable to such persons under such bonus plans for the bonus period ending as of the Effective Time to the extent consistent with applicable plans, awards and law. EHP shall pay to such EHP Employees the amount of the bonus awards payable under such EPC bonus plans for the bonus period ending as of the Effective Time, with such payments made no later than the 15th day of the third month following the close of EHP’s fiscal year in which such bonus period ends. The determination of whether any portion of a bonus award has been earned will be made based upon the achievement of the applicable performance criteria in accordance with the applicable EPC bonus plan. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, but in any event at such time and in such manner as consistent with applicable law to reflect any desired intent, EHP shall establish a bonus plan with respect to periods following the Effective Time, including a plan covering the period from the Effective Time through September 30, 2015. The EHP Committee shall be responsible for establishing performance metrics, funding, paying and discharging all obligations relating to any bonus awards under such bonus plans maintained by EHP. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, but in any event at such time and in such manner as consistent with applicable law to reflect any desired intent, EPC shall establish a bonus plan with respect to periods following the Effective Time, including a plan covering the period from the Effective Time through September 30, 2015.
