Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On September 23, 2016, Endo International plc (“Endo”) announced the appointment of Paul V. Campanelli, 54, President, Par Pharmaceutical, as Endo’s President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Campanelli was also appointed to Endo’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as of such date. A copy of Endo’s press release announcing Mr. Campanelli’s appointment is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. A description of Mr. Campanelli’s business background is set forth in Endo’s 2015 Form 10-K, which was filed on February 29, 2016, and which description is incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference. A description of Mr. Campanelli’s familial relationships and transactions requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K are described in the section titled “Review and Approval of Transactions with Related Persons” in Endo’s revised proxy statement for its 2016 annual meeting of shareholders, which was filed on May 5, 2016 and amended on May 27, 2016, which description is incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference.

In connection with Mr. Campanelli’s appointment, Endo Health Solutions Inc. (the “Company”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Endo, entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Campanelli, dated as of September 23, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreement has a term of three years ending on September 23, 2019, unless earlier terminated. Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Campanelli is entitled to continue to receive his current annual base salary of $950,000 and is eligible to receive a target annual cash bonus of 100% of his base salary. On September 26, 2016, Mr. Campanelli received an equity grant of nonqualified stock options valued at $4,000,000 in connection with the execution of the Employment Agreement (the “Initial Options”), which Initial Options vest ratably over a three year period subject to Mr. Campanelli’s continued employment with the Company.

During the term of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Campanelli is also eligible to receive equity-based compensation on an annual basis to be awarded in the sole discretion of the Board’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) (at a level commensurate with his position as Endo’s President and Chief Executive Officer), which may be subject to the achievement of certain performance targets established by the Committee. Mr. Campanelli is also entitled to receive benefits on the same basis as other senior executives. During the term of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Campanelli will continue to be based in Chestnut Ridge, New York and the Company will provide Mr. Campanelli with corporate housing or pay such expenses on his behalf for housing in the vicinity of the Company’s U.S. headquarters in Malvern, Pennsylvania in an amount not to exceed $5,000 per month.

The Employment Agreement also provides that in the event of a termination of Mr. Campanelli’s employment by the Company without Cause or by Mr. Campanelli for Good Reason (as these terms are defined in the Employment Agreement), Mr. Campanelli will be entitled to the following amounts, subject to his execution of a release of claims: a prorated bonus for year of termination (based on actual performance results), severance in an amount equal to two times the sum of his base salary and target bonus,

continuation of medical and life insurance benefits for two years following termination, and accelerated vesting of the Initial Options. If the qualifying termination occurs within twenty-four months following a change in control of Endo, subject to his execution of a release of claims, Mr. Campanelli will be entitled to the same payments and benefits, except severance will be calculated using a multiple of three and his medical and life insurance benefits will continue for three years. Mr. Campanelli may elect to reduce his severance payments to the extent these payments would constitute “excess parachute payments” under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code. Payments upon termination due to death or disability include a prorated bonus for the year of termination (based on actual performance results), continuation of medical and life insurance benefits for Mr. Campanelli and/or his dependents for two years following such termination and, in the event of disability, 24 months of salary continuation offset by disability benefits. If, within ninety days following the expiration of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Campanelli’s employment is terminated by the Company under circumstances that would not have constituted Cause or by Mr. Campanelli under circumstances that would have constituted Good Reason, he will receive a prorated bonus for the year of termination (based on actual performance results), and the termination will be treated as a termination without Cause or for Good Reason for purposes of the Initial Options and any performance-based long-term incentive awards held by Mr. Campanelli as of the date of such termination of employment.

The Employment Agreement also contains a twenty-four month non-solicitation covenant, a twenty-four month non-competition covenant, a non-disparagement covenant and a covenant providing for cooperation by Mr. Campanelli in connection with any investigations and/or litigation.

Mr. Campanelli’s prior agreement with the Company, dated as of September 25, 2015, is superseded by the Employment Agreement. The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the Employment Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

THIS AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) is hereby entered into as of the 23 rd day of September, 2016, by and between Endo Health Solutions Inc. (the “ Company ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Endo International plc (“ Endo ”), and Paul Campanelli (“ Executive ”) (hereinafter collectively referred to as “the parties”).

In consideration of the respective agreements of the parties contained herein, it is agreed as follows:

 

1. Term . The term of this Agreement shall be for the period commencing on September 23, 2016 (the “ Effective Date ”) and ending, subject to earlier termination as set forth in Section 7, on the third anniversary thereof (the “ Employment Term ”).

 

2. Employment . During the Employment Term:

 

  (a) Executive shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Endo and shall be assigned with the customary duties and responsibilities of such position. In addition, as of the Effective Date, Executive shall serve as member of the board of directors of Endo (the “ Board ”). For as long as Executive is the Chief Executive Officer of Endo, Endo shall nominate Executive for re-election to the Board. At the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, Executive shall resign from the Board and the board of directors of any of Endo’s affiliates. Executive shall not receive any compensation in addition to the compensation described in Sections 3, 4 and 5 of this Agreement for serving as a director of Endo or as a director or officer of any of Endo’s affiliates, but shall be covered under the indemnification and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance provisions of Section 15(d) for any such services.

 

  (b) Executive shall report directly to the Board. Executive shall perform the duties, undertake the responsibilities and exercise the authority customarily performed, undertaken and exercised by persons situated in a similar executive capacity.

 

  (c) Executive shall devote substantially full-time attention to the business and affairs of the Company and its affiliates. Executive may (i) serve on corporate civil, charitable or non-profit boards or committees, subject in all cases to the prior approval of the Board and other applicable written policies of the Company and its affiliates as in effect from time to time, and (ii) manage personal and family investments, participate in industry organizations and deliver lectures at educational institutions, so long as no such service or activity unreasonably interferes, individually or in the aggregate, with the performance of his responsibilities hereunder.

  (d) Executive shall be subject to and shall abide by each of the personnel and compliance policies of the Company and its affiliates applicable and communicated in writing to senior executives.

 

  (e) Executive shall provide services at his location in Chestnut Ridge, New York, and will travel to the Company’s U.S. headquarters in Malvern, Pennsylvania and Endo’s headquarters in Ireland to the extent reasonably necessary and appropriate to fulfill his duties.

 

3. Special Equity Compensation . On the first trading day following the Effective Date (the “ Grant Date ”), Executive shall receive a grant of nonqualified stock options (the “ Initial Stock Options ”) under Endo’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan or any successor plan thereto (the “ Plan ”) valued at $4,000,000 using a Black Scholes valuation based on the closing price of Endo’s ordinary shares on the Grant Date with methodology determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “ Committee ”) in its good faith discretion (rounded down to the nearest whole share). The Initial Stock Options shall vest ratably over a three-year period, at a rate of one-third (33  1 ⁄ 3 %) of the total Initial Stock Options on each of the three anniversaries of the Grant Date, provided Executive is employed on such dates by the Company or one of its affiliates. The Initial Stock Options shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and applicable award agreement on terms no less favorable than those provided to other senior executives of the Company.

 

4. Annual Compensation .

 

  (a) Base Salary . The Company agrees to pay or cause to be paid to Executive during the Employment Term a base salary at the rate of $950,000 per annum or such increased amount in accordance with this Section 4(a) (hereinafter referred to as the “ Base Salary ”). Such Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s customary practices applicable to its executives. Such Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually by the Board or by the Committee, and may be increased in the sole discretion of the Committee, but not decreased.

 

  (b)

Incentive Compensation . For each fiscal year of the Company ending during the Employment Term, beginning with the 2017 fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible to receive a target annual cash bonus of 100% of the Base Salary (such target bonus, as may hereafter be increased, the “ Target Bonus ”) with the opportunity to receive a maximum annual cash bonus in accordance with the terms of the applicable annual cash bonus plan as in effect from time to time, subject to the achievement of performance targets set by the Committee. Such annual cash bonus (“ Incentive Compensation ”) shall be paid in no event later than the 15th day of the third month following the end of the taxable year (of the Company or Executive, whichever is later) in which the performance targets have been achieved. If the parties (following good faith negotiation) fail to enter into a new employment agreement following expiration of the Employment Term and Executive terminates his employment within ninety (90) days following expiration of the Employment Term under circumstances that would have

 

2

  constituted Good Reason had such termination occurred during the Employment Term or if, during such 90-day period, the Company terminates Executive’s employment under circumstances that would not have constituted Cause had such termination occurred during the Employment Term, then the Company shall pay Executive a Pro-Rata Bonus (as defined in Section 9(b)(ii) hereof) in a lump sum at the time bonuses are payable to other senior executives of the Company.

 

5. Long-Term Compensation . During the Employment Term, Executive shall be eligible to receive equity-based compensation to be awarded, in the sole discretion of the Committee (at a level commensurate with his position as Chief Executive Officer, as compared to other senior executives of the Company), which may be subject to the achievement of certain performance targets set by the Committee. All such equity-based awards shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable plan and award agreements, and in all cases shall be as determined by the Committee; provided, that, such terms and conditions shall be no less favorable than those provided for other senior executives of the Company. If the parties (following good faith negotiation) fail to enter into a new employment agreement following expiration of the Employment Term and Executive terminates his employment within ninety (90) days following expiration of the Employment Term under circumstances that would have constituted Good Reason had such termination occurred during the Employment Term or if, during such 90-day period, the Company terminates Executive’s employment under circumstances that would not have constituted Cause had such termination occurred during the Employment Term, then such termination of employment shall be treated as a termination of employment for “Good Reason” or without Cause, as applicable, for purposes of the Initial Stock Options and the performance-based restricted stock units held by Executive as of the date of such termination of employment (and such awards shall be treated in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreements).

For purposes of this definition, Cause shall not exist unless written demand is delivered by the Board to Executive which specifically identifies the conduct, events or circumstances that may provide grounds for Cause in reasonable detail within ninety (90) calendar days of the Company’s knowledge of such conduct, events or circumstances. During the thirty (30) day period after receipt of such demand, Executive shall have an opportunity to cure or remedy such conduct, events or circumstances and present his case to the full Board (with the assistance of counsel chosen by Executive) before any termination for Cause is finalized by a vote by at least two-thirds of the independent members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose.

Executive may terminate employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 8 below) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of Executive’s employment for Good Reason. The Company shall have the option of terminating Executive’s duties and responsibilities prior to the expiration of such thirty-day notice period. For purposes of this Agreement, “ Good Reason ” means any of the following: (i) a diminution in Executive’s Base Salary, Target Bonus (provided that in no event shall a failure to earn a bonus equal or in excess of the Target Bonus by reason of failure to achieve applicable performance goals be deemed Good Reason) or a material diminution in benefits; (ii) a material, adverse change to Executive’s position, duties or responsibilities without Executive’s express written consent; (iii) any change in reporting structure such that Executive is required to report to someone other than the Board; (iv) any material breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement (including the material failure to pay any amounts due hereunder when due or the failure of the Company to abide by the requirements of Section 15(a)(i) below with respect to successors or permitted assigns); or (v) the Company requiring Executive to be based at any office or location that increases the length of Executive’s commute by more than fifty (50) miles.

8. Notice of Termination . Any purported termination by the Company or by Executive shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “ Notice of Termination ” shall mean a notice that indicates a termination date, the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated. For purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination of Executive’s employment hereunder shall be effective without such Notice of Termination (unless waived by the party entitled to receive such notice).

 

9. Compensation Upon Termination . Upon termination of Executive’s employment during the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:

 

  (a) Termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason . If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive without Good Reason, the Company shall pay Executive all amounts earned or accrued hereunder through the termination date, including:

 

  (i) any accrued and unpaid Base Salary, payable on the next payroll date;

 

  (ii) any Incentive Compensation earned but unpaid in respect of any completed fiscal year preceding the termination date, payable at the time incentive compensation is paid to other senior executives;

 

  (iii) reimbursement for any and all monies advanced or expenses incurred in connection with Executive’s employment for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by Executive on behalf of the Company for the period ending on the termination date, which amount shall be reimbursed within thirty (30) days of the Company’s receipt of proper documentation from Executive;

 

  (iv) any accrued and unpaid vacation pay, payable on the next payroll date;

 

  (v) any previous compensation that Executive has previously deferred (including any interest earned or credited thereon), in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable deferred compensation plans or arrangements then in effect, to the extent vested as of Executive’s termination date, paid pursuant to the terms of such plans or arrangements; and

 

  (vi) any amount or benefit as provided under any benefit plan or program in accordance with the terms thereof; (the foregoing items in Sections 9(a)(i) through 9(a)(vi) being collectively referred to as the “ Accrued Compensation ”).

 

7

  (b) Termination by the Company for Disability . If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Disability, the Company shall pay Executive:

 

  (i) the Accrued Compensation;

 

  (ii) an amount equal to the Incentive Compensation that Executive would have been entitled to receive in respect of the fiscal year in which Executive’s termination date occurs, had Executive continued in employment until the end of such fiscal year, which amount, determined based on actual performance for such year relative to the performance goals applicable to Executive (but without any exercise of negative discretion with respect to Executive in excess of that applied to either senior executives of the Company generally or in accordance with the Company’s historical past practice), shall be multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year through the termination date and (B) the denominator of which is 365 (the “ Pro-Rata Bonus ”) and shall be payable in a lump sum payment at the time such bonus or incentive awards are payable to other participants. Further, upon Executive’s Disability (irrespective of any termination of employment related thereto), the Company shall pay Executive for twenty-four (24) consecutive months thereafter regular payments in the amount by which the monthly Base Salary exceeds Executive’s monthly Disability insurance benefit; and

 

  (iii) continued coverage for Executive and Executive’s dependents under any health, medical, dental, vision or life insurance program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination, for two (2) years following such termination on the same basis as active employees, which such two year period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period, and which coverage shall become secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which Executive becomes eligible; provided , however , the parties agree to cooperate such that the continued coverage is, to the extent practicable, provided in a manner so as to minimize adverse tax consequences to the Company.

 

  (c) Termination By Reason of Death . If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, the Company shall pay Executive’s beneficiaries:

 

  (i) the Accrued Compensation;

 

  (ii) the Pro-Rata Bonus; and

 

8

  (iii) continued coverage for Executive’s dependents under any health, medical, dental, vision or life insurance program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination, for two (2) years following such termination on terms no less favorable to Executive’s dependents (including with respect to payment for the costs thereof) than those in effect immediately prior to such termination, which such two year period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period.

 

  (d) Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason Other Than in Connection with a Change in Control . If Executive’s employment by the Company shall be terminated by the Company without Cause (other than on account of Executive’s Disability or death) or by Executive for Good Reason, in either case other than where such termination would entitle Executive to the benefits provided in Section 9(e) of this Agreement, then, subject to Section 15(f) of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in this Section 9(d):

 

  (i) the Accrued Compensation;

 

  (ii) the Pro-Rata Bonus;

 

  (iii) in lieu of any further Base Salary or other compensation and benefits for periods subsequent to the termination date, an amount in cash, which amount shall be payable in a lump sum payment within sixty (60) days following such termination (subject to Section 10(c)), equal to two (2) times the sum of (A) Executive’s Base Salary and (B) the Target Bonus;

 

  (iv) accelerated vesting and non-forfeitability, as of the termination date, of the Initial Stock Options, which shall remain exercisable in accordance with their terms; and

 

  (v) continued coverage under any health, medical, dental, vision or life insurance program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination for two (2) years following such termination on the same basis as active employees, which such two year period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period, and which coverage shall become secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which Executive becomes eligible. Notwithstanding the above, in the event such continued coverage, by reason of change in the applicable law, may, in the Company’s reasonable view, result in tax or other penalties on the Company, this provision shall terminate and the parties shall, in good faith, negotiate for a substitute provision that provides substantially similar benefit to Executive but does not result in such tax or other penalties.

 

9

  (e) Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason Following a Change in Control . If Executive’s employment by the Company shall be terminated by the Company without Cause (other than on account of Executive’s Disability or death) or by Executive for Good Reason within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control, then, in lieu of the amounts due under Section 9(d) above and subject to Section 15(f) of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in this Section 9(e):

 

  (i) the Accrued Compensation;

 

  (ii) the Pro-Rata Bonus;

 

  (iii) in lieu of any further Base Salary or other compensation and benefits for periods subsequent to the termination date, an amount in cash, which amount shall be payable in a lump sum payment within sixty (60) days following such termination (subject to Section 10(c)), equal to three (3) times the sum of (A) Executive’s Base Salary and (B) the Target Bonus;

 

  (iv) accelerated vesting and non-forfeitability, as of the termination date, of the Initial Stock Options, which shall remain exercisable in accordance with their terms; and

 

  (v) continued coverage under any health, medical, dental, vision or life insurance program or policy in which Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of Executive’s employment termination for three (3) years following such termination on the same basis as active employees, which such three year period shall run concurrently with the COBRA period, and which coverage shall become secondary to any coverage provided to Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which Executive becomes eligible. Notwithstanding the above, in the event such continued coverage, by reason of change in the applicable law, may, in the Company’s reasonable view, result in tax or other penalties on the Company, this provision shall terminate and the parties shall, in good faith, negotiate for a substitute provision that provides substantially similar benefit to Executive but does not result in such tax or other penalties.

10. Certain Tax Treatment .

 

  (a) Golden Parachute Tax . To the extent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement and benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, Executive under any other plan or agreement of the Company or any of its affiliates (such payments or benefits are collectively referred to as the “ Payments ”) would be subject to the excise tax (the “ Excise Tax ”) imposed under Section 4999 of the Code or any successor provision thereto, or any similar tax imposed by state or local law, then Executive may, in his sole discretion, (except as provided herein below) waive the right to receive any payments or distributions (or a portion thereof) by the Company in the nature of compensation to or for Executive’s benefit if and to the extent necessary so that no Payment to be made or benefit to be provided to Executive shall be subject to the Excise Tax (such reduced amount is hereinafter referred to as the “ Limited Payment Amount ”), but only if such reduction results in a higher after-tax payment to Executive after taking into account the Excise Tax and any additional taxes (including federal, state and local income taxes, employment, social security and Medicare taxes and all other applicable taxes) Executive would pay if such Payments and benefits were not reduced. If so waived, the Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments provided under Section 9, to effect the provisions of this Section 10 based upon Section 10(b) below. The determination of the amount of Payments that would be required to be reduced to the Limited Payment Amount pursuant to this Agreement and the amount of such Limited Payment Amount shall be made, at the Company’s expense, by a reputable accounting firm selected by Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “ Accounting Firm ”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determination (the “ Determination ”), together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation to the Company and Executive within ten (10) days of the date of termination, if applicable, or such other time as specified by mutual agreement of the Company and Executive, and if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive with respect to the Payments, it shall furnish Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to any such Payments. The Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon the Company and Executive, absent manifest error. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 10(a), the Accounting Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and rates, and rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the Code, and other applicable legal authority. In furtherance of the above, to the extent requested by Executive, the Company shall cooperate in good faith in valuing, and the Accounting Firm shall value, services to be provided by Executive (including Executive refraining from performing services pursuant to any covenant not to compete) before, on or after the date of the transaction which causes the application of Section 4999 of the Code, such that payments in respect of such services may be considered to be “reasonable compensation” within the meaning of the regulations under Section 4999 of the Code.

 

11

  (b) Ordering of Reduction . In the case of a reduction in the Payments pursuant to Section 10(a), the Payments will be reduced in the following order: (i) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) will be reduced (if necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; (iii) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last reduced first, will next be reduced; (iv) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; and (v) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses (ii) or (iv) will be next reduced pro-rata.

ENDO NAMES PAUL CAMPANELLI PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Brings Extensive Leadership and Operations Experience in Generics, OTC Drugs and Branded Products

Company Affirms Third Quarter and Full Year 2016 Financial Guidance

DUBLIN – September 23, 2016 – Endo International plc (NASDAQ: ENDP) (TSX: ENL) today announced that its Board of Directors has named Paul V. Campanelli President and Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Campanelli currently serves as President of Endo’s Generic and OTC drugs business, Par Pharmaceutical, which accounts for approximately 60 percent of Endo’s total revenues through the first half of 2016. Campanelli, who will also join Endo’s Board of Directors, succeeds Rajiv De Silva, who has stepped down as President, CEO and a member of the Board.

Campanelli, 54, joined Endo in 2015 following Endo’s acquisition of Par Pharmaceutical, where he had served as Chief Executive Officer since 2012. While CEO of Par, Campanelli built a strong leadership team and an industry-leading generics business. Specifically, during his tenure, Par significantly increased total revenue, acquired JHP Pharmaceuticals and established a presence in the European generics market. Since joining Endo, Campanelli has overseen the Company’s U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals business.

“Given the continued evolution of Endo’s business and Paul’s impressive track record of delivering strong operating results, the Board concluded that Paul is the right leader for Endo at this juncture as we focus on execution and increasing the value of our attractive U.S. Branded, U.S. Generic and International pharmaceutical assets,” stated Roger H. Kimmel, Chairman of the Board of Endo. “Paul has spent a significant portion of his career leading and operating complex generics businesses and overseeing Par’s branded business. The Board believes his experience positions him to drive a broad range of growth initiatives across Endo’s entire portfolio, generating better health outcomes for patients and creating value for Endo’s shareholders.”

“I am very excited to lead Endo at this important time and, together with a strong senior management team, address the challenges of today’s healthcare environment,” said Campanelli. “Endo has differentiated operating businesses that provide diverse products ranging from high-value branded pharmaceuticals to cost-effective generics and is powered by a dedicated global workforce. I look forward to working closely and collaboratively with our leadership team and Endo’s Board to build on our strengths and help position the Company to thrive over the long-term.”

“It has been a pleasure and an honor leading Endo, building a talented management team and working with our dedicated employees over the past three and a half years,” said De Silva. “Now, with an international footprint, one year after the acquisition of Par and with a new President at the helm of our U.S. Branded business, the time is right for me to move on to new professional opportunities. I am working closely with the Board, Paul and the entire senior leadership team to ensure a smooth transition and remain fully committed to Endo’s future success.”

Kimmel added, “On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Rajiv De Silva for his leadership. He played a critical role in assembling valuable assets, establishing a global footprint and in building strong teams, and we wish him all the best in his future endeavors.”

Prior to becoming CEO of Par in 2012, Campanelli served as Chief Operating Officer of Par Pharmaceutical, driving growth in both its branded and generic pharmaceutical businesses. Previously, he held roles of increasing responsibility at Par, including President, Par Generics, and Executive Vice President, Business Development & Licensing for branded and generic products. Campanelli has more than 25 years of experience in the generics and branded pharmaceutical industry.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements,” including, but not limited to, the statements by Messrs. Kimmel, Campanelli and De Silva, as well as Endo’s expected, estimated or anticipated future results. Because forecasts are inherently estimates that cannot be made with precision, Endo’s performance at times differs materially from its estimates and targets, and Endo often does not know what the actual results will be until after the end of the applicable reporting period. Therefore, Endo will not report or comment on its progress during a current quarter except through public announcement. Any statement made by others with respect to progress during a current quarter cannot be attributed to Endo. All forward-looking statements in this press release reflect Endo’s current analysis of existing trends and information and represent Endo’s judgment only as of the date of this press release. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from Endo’s expectations and projections. Risks and uncertainties include, among other things, general industry and market conditions; technological advances and patents attained by competitors; challenges inherent in the research and development and regulatory processes; challenges related to product marketing, such as the unpredictability of market acceptance for new products and/or the acceptance of new indications for such products; inconsistency of treatment results among patients; potential difficulties in manufacturing; general economic conditions; and governmental laws and regulations affecting domestic and foreign operations. Endo expressly disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements except as required by law. Additional information concerning these and other risk factors can be found in Endo’s periodic reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and in Canada on the System for Electronic Data Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”), including current reports on Form 8-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K.
