  (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

 

  (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the applicable Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Notes or portions of such Notes being repurchased and that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture to the Change of Control Offer and to the repurchase by the Issuer of the applicable Notes pursuant to the Control Payment Offer have been met.

(e) The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations applicable to the repurchase of the Notes. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached the Issuer’s obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Indenture or the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

(f) For purposes of this Section 6.03, the following definitions shall apply:

Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of Parent (or Parent’s Affiliate Transferee) or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of Parent (or Parent’s Affiliate Transferee) is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or (2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Parent (or Parent’s Affiliate Transferee) and the assets of the Subsidiaries of Parent (or Parent’s Affiliate Transferee), taken as a whole, to one or more Persons, other than Parent or a Subsidiary of Parent (or Parent’s Affiliate Transferee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction referenced in clause (1) of this definition will not be deemed to be a Change of Control if (i) Parent becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of a holding company and (ii)(A) the direct or

 

- 12 -


indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of Parent’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction referenced in clause (2) of this definition will not be deemed a Change of Control if (i) Parent becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of a holding company, (ii) the transferee of all or substantially all of Parent’s assets and the assets of Parent’s Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is also a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of such holding company (such transferee, Parent’s “Affiliate Transferee”), (iii) such holding company provides a full and unconditional guarantee of the Notes (whereupon such holding company shall be substituted as “Parent” for the purposes of the Notes and Indenture (without the release of the guarantee of the entity formerly considered to be “Parent”)) and (iv)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of Parent’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Rating Event.

Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s and BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies.

Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and any successor to its ratings agency business.

Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s and S&P, and (2) if either Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Issuer’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Issuer (as certified by a resolution of the Issuer’s Board of Directors) as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be.

Rating Event” means the rating on such series of Notes is lowered by each of the Rating Agencies and such series of Notes is rated below an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period (which 60-day period will be extended so long as the rating of such series of Notes is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies) after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (2) public notice of Parent’s intention to effect a Change of Control; provided, however, that a Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus will not be deemed a Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event) if each Rating Agency making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Issuer’s or the Trustee’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Rating Event).

S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and any successor to its ratings agency business.

Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), as of any date, the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the Board of Directors of such person.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. INTEREST. Perrigo Finance plc, a public limited company organized under the law of Ireland (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 3.500% per annum from and including December 2, 2014 until but excluding maturity. The Issuer shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the date of original issuance; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be June 15, 2015. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of business on June 1 and December 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 3.7 of the Base Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on, and Additional Amounts, if any, payable with respect to, the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose; provided that, at the option of the Issuer, interest on the Notes may be paid by mailing checks for such interest to or upon the written order of the holders thereof at their last address as they shall appear on the Security Register or by wire transfer or other electronic means to Holders of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Securities having wire transfer addresses within the continental United States; provided further that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal, premium, if any, and interest on all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

3. PAYING AGENT AND SECURITY REGISTRAR. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Security Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Security Registrar without notice to the Holders.
