EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this Amendment) amends our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, originally filed on March 2, 2015 (the Original Filing). We are filing this Amendment to include the information required by Part III and not included in the Original Filing, as we do not intend to file a definitive proxy statement for an annual meeting of stockholders within 120 days of the end of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. In addition, in connection with the filing of this Amendment and pursuant to the rules of the SEC, we are including with this Amendment new certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Accordingly, Item 15 of Part IV has also been amended to reflect the filing of these new certifications.
Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing. The Original Filing continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and we have not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events which occurred at a date subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.
As explained in the Original Filing, on February 27, 2015 (the Closing Date), Mylan N.V. completed the transaction (the Abbott Transaction) by which it acquired Mylan Inc. and Abbott Laboratories (Abbott) non-U.S. developed markets specialty and branded generics business (the Business). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Business Transfer Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 4, 2014, by and among Mylan Inc., New Moon B.V. (which has been renamed Mylan N.V.), Moon of PA Inc., and Abbott, on the Closing Date, Mylan N.V. acquired the Business and Moon of PA Inc. merged with and into Mylan Inc., with Mylan Inc. surviving as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Mylan N.V. (the Merger) and each share of Mylan Inc. common stock issued and outstanding was canceled and automatically converted into and became the right to receive one Mylan N.V. ordinary share. In connection with this transaction, Mylan Inc. and the Business were reorganized under Mylan N.V., a new public company organized in the Netherlands. On February 18, 2015, the Office of Chief Counsel of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a no-action letter to Mylan Inc. and Mylan N.V. that included its views that the Merger constituted a succession for purposes of Rule 12g-3(a) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and that Mylan N.V., as successor to Mylan Inc., is deemed a large accelerated filer for purposes of Exchange Act Rule 12b-2. Mylan Inc. made the Original Filing and is filing this Amendment in accordance with Rule 12g-3(g) of the Exchange Act. As of March 2, 2015, Mylan N.V., and not Mylan Inc., traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol MYL.
As used in this Amendment, unless the context requires otherwise, the Company, Mylan, our, and we mean Mylan Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, NASDAQ means The NASDAQ Stock Market, SEC means the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and GAAP means accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Unless otherwise stated in this Amendment, all disclosures herein are made as of February 26, 2015 and do not reflect events or results subsequent to such date, including the completion of the Abbott Transaction.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Amendment contains forward-looking statements. These statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements about the Abbott Transaction, benefits and synergies of the Abbott Transaction, future opportunities for Mylan or Mylan N.V., and any other statements regarding Mylans or Mylan N.V.s future operations, anticipated business levels, future earnings, planned activities, anticipated growth, market opportunities, strategies, competition, and other expectations and targets for future periods. These may often be identified by the use of words such as will, may, could, should, would, project, believe, anticipate, expect, plan, estimate, forecast, potential, intend, continue, target and variations of these words or comparable words. Because forward-looking statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties, actual future results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: the ability to meet expectations regarding the
i
accounting and tax treatments of the Abbott Transaction; changes in relevant tax and other laws, including but not limited to changes in healthcare and pharmaceutical laws and regulations in the U.S. and abroad; the integration of the Business being more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected; operating costs, customer loss and business disruption (including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees, customers, clients, or suppliers) being greater than expected following the Abbott Transaction; the retention of certain key employees of the Business being difficult; the possibility that Mylan and Mylan N.V. may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in connection with the Abbott Transaction within the expected time-frames or at all and to successfully integrate the Business; expected or targeted future financial and operating performance and results; the capacity to bring new products to market, including but not limited to where Mylan or Mylan N.V. uses its business judgment and decides to manufacture, market, and/or sell products, directly or through third parties, notwithstanding the fact that allegations of patent infringement(s) have not been finally resolved by the courts (i.e., an at-risk launch); success of clinical trials and our ability to execute on new product opportunities; the scope, timing, and outcome of any ongoing legal proceedings and the impact of any such proceedings on financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows; the ability to protect intellectual property and preserve intellectual property rights; the effect of any changes in customer and supplier relationships and customer purchasing patterns; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; changes in third-party relationships; the impacts of competition; changes in the economic and financial conditions of the business of Mylan or Mylan N.V.; the inherent challenges, risks, and costs in identifying, acquiring, and integrating complementary or strategic acquisitions of other companies, products or assets and in achieving anticipated synergies; uncertainties and matters beyond the control of management; uncertainties related to strategic transactions involving Mylan N.V., including the proposed acquisition of Perrigo Company plc; and inherent uncertainties involved in the estimates and judgments used in the preparation of financial statements, and the providing of estimates of financial measures, in accordance with GAAP and related standards or on an adjusted basis. For more detailed information on the risks and uncertainties associated with Mylans business activities, see the risks described in the Original Filing and our and Mylan N.V.s other filings with the SEC. These risks, as well as other risks associated with Mylan, Mylan N.V., the Business, and the Abbott Transaction are also more fully discussed in the Registration Statement (as defined herein) and in the proxy statement Mylan filed with the SEC on December 24, 2014, as well as the prospectus New Moon B.V. (referred to herein as Mylan N.V.) filed with the SEC on December 24, 2014. You can access Mylans and Mylan N.V.s filings with the SEC through the SEC website at www.sec.gov, and Mylan strongly encourages you to do so. Mylan undertakes no obligation to update any statements herein for revisions or changes after the date of this Amendment.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Amendment includes the presentation and discussion of certain financial information that differs from what is reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, return on invested capital, and adjusted operating cash flow, are presented in order to supplement investors and other readers understanding and assessment of Mylans financial performance. Management uses these measures internally for forecasting, budgeting, measuring its operating performance, and incentive-based awards. In addition, primarily due to acquisitions, Mylan believes that an evaluation of its ongoing operations (and comparisons of its current operations with historical and future operations) would be difficult if the disclosure of its financial results were limited to financial measures prepared only in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Mylan believes that including EBITDA and supplemental adjustments applied in presenting adjusted EBITDA pursuant to our credit agreement is appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate Mylans ability to comply with financial debt covenants (which are calculated using a measure similar to adjusted EBITDA) and assess Mylans ability to incur additional indebtedness. Appendix A to this Amendment contains reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Investors and other readers are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures set forth in Appendix A, and investors and other readers should consider non-GAAP measures only as supplements to, not as substitutes for or as superior measures to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Board Education
From time-to-time, the Board or individual Board members participate in Director educational programs.
Board of Directors Leadership Structure
Mylans Board annually elects one of its own members as the Chairman of the Board. Mr. Coury has served as the Chairman of the Board since being elected in May 2009. Based on significant interaction and experience with Mr. Coury, the independent Directors on the Board continue to believe that Mr. Courys extensive knowledge of the industry, Mylans management, businesses and global platform, and the opportunities and challenges anticipated in the future, as well as his proven leadership abilities, vision, and insight, and the continued outstanding performance of the Company, make him the ideal person to lead the Board. Mr. Coury previously served as CEO of the Company from September 2002 to January 2012.
In his capacity as Executive Chairman, Mr. Courys primary responsibilities include providing overall leadership and strategic direction of the Company; providing guidance to the CEO and senior management; coordinating the activities of the Board; overseeing talent management; communicating with shareholders and other stakeholders; strategic business development; and mergers and acquisitions.
Effective January 1, 2012, the Board implemented an enhanced management structure, again electing Mr. Coury as Executive Chairman of the Board (as described above) and appointing Ms. Bresch as CEO, among other changes described in previous public filings.
As of 2012, in her role as CEO, Ms. Breschs primary responsibilities include the day-to-day running and oversight of the Companys global operations, business, and functions; bolstering and enhancing the Companys processes; and developing and implementing a blueprint for an organizational design to help ensure the sustainability of our success into the future.
Although the Board has no fixed policy with respect to the separation of the offices of Chairman of the Board and CEO, the Board strongly believes that its current management structure has proven to be
8
ideal for Mylan at this time, and that it has produced outstanding results for shareholders, as illustrated on pages 13 to 19 of this Amendment. The Board believes that the Company and its shareholders have benefited and continue to benefit from the respective leadership, judgment, vision, experience and performance of the Executive Chairman, Mr. Coury, and the CEO, Ms. Bresch, both of whom share a vision for the Company that is consistent with the Boards philosophy.
This determination is based on, among other factors, Mr. Courys and Ms. Breschs leadership abilities; the performance of the Company; and the Boards deep and unique knowledge of the complexity, size, and dramatic growth of the Company, the Companys businesses, operations, vision, and strategies, the respective talents and capabilities of our fellow Directors and management, and the opportunities and challenges anticipated in the future.
In connection with the enhanced management structure implemented in 2012, the Board also appointed Mr. Piatt as Lead Independent Director based on, among other factors, Mr. Piatts outstanding contributions as a Director of the Company, excellent business judgment, recognized leadership abilities, and independence. The Board believes that this appointment only further enhances the Boards already strong independent oversight of the Company. As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Piatt presides at executive sessions of the Board and at any meetings of the Board where the Chairman is not present, and he has the authority to call meetings of the non-employee Directors. He also serves on the Executive Committee of the Board. In addition, the Lead Independent Director has authority to approve meeting agendas, schedules, and information sent to the Board, and serves as the contact person for shareholders wishing to communicate with the Board and as a liaison between the Chairman and independent Directors.
Our governance structure also provides effective oversight by the Board in the following additional ways:
| ten of the thirteen members of our Board are independent; |
| the Board has established robust Corporate Governance Principles; |
| the Audit, Compensation, Compliance, Finance and G&N Committees are all composed entirely of independent Directors (as defined in the applicable NASDAQ listing standards); |
| the Board and its Committees have unrestricted access to management and can retain, at their discretion and at Company expense, subject matter experts and advisors to consult on any matter brought before the Board or any of its committees; and |
| the Board and its Committees are intimately familiar with the business and management of the Company and collectively met 79 times in 2014. |
Information on the leadership structure of Mylan N.V. can be found in Item 5.02 of the Closing 8-K and the Registration Statement, as well as Mylan N.V.s Articles of Association, Rules for the Board of Directors, and Corporate Governance Principles, which are available on Mylan N.V.s website at http://www.mylan.com/company/corporate-governance.
Board of Directors Risk Oversight
The Boards Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the Companys risk management processes on behalf of the full Board. The Audit Committee focuses on financial reporting risk and oversight of the internal audit function. It receives reports from management at least quarterly regarding, among other matters, the Companys assessment of risks and the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls. The Audit Committee also receives reports from management addressing risks impacting the day-to-day operations of the Company. Mylans internal audit function meets with the Audit Committee on at least a quarterly basis to discuss potential risk or control issues. The Audit Committee reports regularly to the full Board, which also considers the Companys risk profile. The full Board focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Companys general risk management strategy,
9
and also seeks to ensure that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with the Boards risk management expectations. While the Board oversees the Companys overall risk management strategy, management is responsible for the day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibility is a highly effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.
In addition, the Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the Companys compensation risk as discussed further beginning on page 35 of this Amendment under Consideration of Risk in Company Compensation Policies.
Also, the Compliance Committee is responsible for overseeing the Companys corporate compliance program and related policies and controls.
Code of Ethics; Corporate Governance Principles; Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
The Board has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, and Corporate Controller (Code of Ethics). The Board also has adopted Corporate Governance Principles as well as a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all Directors, officers, and employees.
Copies of the Code of Ethics, the Corporate Governance Principles, and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Mylan N.V. are posted on Mylan N.V.s website at http://www.mylan.com/company/corporate-governance. Copies of the Code of Ethics, the Corporate Governance Principles, and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Mylan N.V. are also available in print to shareholders upon request, addressed to Mylan N.V.s Corporate Secretary at Albany Gate, Darkes Lane, Potters Bar, Hertfordshire EN6 1AG, United Kingdom. Mylan N.V. intends to post any amendments to and waivers from the Code of Ethics on its website as identified above.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires all Directors and certain executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of Mylans equity securities to file with the SEC within specified due dates reports of ownership and reports of changes of ownership of Mylan Common Stock and our other equity securities. These persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based on reports and written representations furnished to us by these persons, we believe that all Mylan Directors and relevant executive officers complied with these filing requirements during 2014.

Non-employee Directors are eligible to receive stock options or other grants under the Companys Amended and Restated 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2003 Plan). In April 2014, each non-employee Director was granted an option to purchase 2,974 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $45.72 per share, the closing price per share of the Companys common stock on the date of grant, which option vests on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and 3,609 RSUs, also vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date. As discussed below, in connection with the Abbott Transaction, vesting of the RSUs granted to non-employee Directors in 2014 was accelerated.
In February 2013, the Board adopted stock ownership requirements for non-employee Directors, requiring non-employee Directors to hold shares valued at three times their annual retainer as long as they remain on the Board, and the Board increased this ownership requirement to four times the annual retainer in April 2014. Directors who were Board members when this policy was initially adopted have until January 1, 2018 to comply, while each new Director has five years from his or her election to the Board to achieve this requirement. The policy was adopted to further demonstrate the alignment of Directors interests with shareholders for the duration of their service. All Directors, except for Ms. Dillon, are in compliance with the requirement. Ms. Dillon joined the Board in April 2014, and she has until April 2019 to satisfy these ownership requirements.

Outstanding Five-Year and 2014 Financial and Operating Performance
Outstanding Financial Performance Over the Past Five Years. Mylan has delivered outstanding short-term and long-term growth over the past five years.
$ in millions except per share amounts
* | Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share (adjusted EPS) for all years differ from what is reported under GAAP. See Appendix A for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures. For the years 2010 through 2014, GAAP net earnings (in millions) were $345; $537; $641; $624; and $929, respectively, and GAAP EPS was $0.68; $1.22; $1.52; $1.58; and $2.34, respectively. |
In addition, the Companys Total Shareholder Return (TSR) significantly outperformed both the S&P 500 Index and the S&P 500 Pharmaceuticals Index over the past one, three, and five years.

Continued Strong Financial Performance and Return of Value to Shareholders in 2014. Mylans outstanding performance in 2014 again demonstrated the continued strength and diversity of the Companys global platform. Mylans senior leadership team, supported by Mylans exceptional and dedicated workforce, delivered solid year-over-year growth and record revenues, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS, despite continued delays in product approvals at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Company continued to position itself for future growth by making meaningful progress against its key growth drivers. Notably, 2014 marked an important milestone for EpiPen® Auto-Injector, as it became Mylans first $1 billion product.

$ in millions except per share amounts
* | Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. See Appendix A for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures. GAAP net earnings (in millions) were $624 and $929 for the years 2013 and 2014, respectively. GAAP EPS was $1.58 and $2.34 for the years 2013 and 2014, respectively. |
The Companys continued focus on operational and financial execution in 2014 resulted in the generation of approximately $1.2 billion of adjusted operating cash flows (GAAP cash provided by operating activities in 2014 was $1.0 billion; see Appendix A for reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures).
Mylan also maintained its investment grade credit rating in 2014 from both Standard & Poors and Moodys, the two principal ratings agencies. Mylans sustained commitment to strong balance sheet management, including enhanced financial flexibility, continues to position the Company well to execute on short-term and long-term strategic opportunities.
Additionally, the Companys stock price rose to a then all-time high in 2014 as investors continued to recognize the strength and diversity of Mylans global business, as well as its potential for significant long-term growth.
Key 2014 Operational Accomplishments. 2014 marked another very strong year for Mylan as the Company delivered growth across all regions and business segments, while continuing to make meaningful progress with respect to its key growth drivers. Mylan also further strengthened its balance sheet and enhanced its financial flexibility, positioning the Company for future opportunities and sustainable long-term growth.
Operational highlights from 2014 include:
| EpiPen® Auto-Injector became Mylans first product to reach $1 billion in annual net sales. The product remains the worlds number one dispensed epinephrine auto-injector. |
| Signed a multi-year strategic alliance agreement with Walt Disney Parks and Resorts to enhance access to EpiPen® Auto-Injectors and help increase awareness of anaphylaxis. |
| Received more FDA approvals in 2014 than any other company, including six first-to-file approvals, which helped to fuel the Companys strong financial performance during the year. |
16
| Further expanded Mylans injectables business, which today consists of a global portfolio of more than 230 injectable products across a broad range of dosage forms. |
| Commenced Phase III clinical trials for a generic version of Advair Diskus®, which is indicated for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Mylan anticipates filing its application with the FDA at the end of 2015 and anticipates being the first company to launch an AB-rated product in the United States. |
| Commenced two Phase III clinical trials for Mylans insulin analog to Lantus®. The Company continues to pursue the opportunity to have one of the first interchangeable insulin analogs to Lantus®. |
| Launched the worlds first trastuzumab biosimilar in India. The product is marketed by Mylan under the brand name HertrazTM. Hertraz is indicated for the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer and is available in two strengths, 440 milligrams and 150 milligrams. |
| Selected as a leading supplier of anti-retroviral (ARV) medications for the Global Fund and South African National Department of Health and the South African Government, two of the largest global buyers of ARV medications. |
| Continued expansion of Mylans infectious disease business through partnership with Gilead Sciences for the global distribution of several Hepatitis-C treatments. |
Continued Strong Alignment of CEO Pay with Company Performance in 2014
Compensation in 2014 was once again closely aligned with the outstanding performance noted above.
| Outstanding performance against goals: The Company exceeded each of the performance-based goals set by the Compensation Committee relating to adjusted EPS, global regulatory submissions, and adjusted free cash flow in 2014. As a result, short-term incentive payouts for NEOs were 181% of target for 2014. |
| Strong alignment between realizable pay and performance relative to peers: The total compensation realizable by Mylans CEO over a three-year period is fully aligned with Mylans TSR relative to the Companys peer groups, as shown below. |
17
Alignment of Three-Year CEO Realizable Pay* with TSR Performance
* | Realizable pay includes cumulative salary and short-term incentives paid for the most recent three years, plus current value (as of December 31, 2014) of options and time-based restricted shares/units granted during the most recent three years, plus the current value (as of December 31, 2014) of performance awards earned during the most recent three years, plus change in pension value and all other compensation for the most recent three years. TSR data is from the S&P Research Insight Database. Peer companies in this chart reflect the 2014 peer companies listed on page 35 of this 10-K/A. |
| Strong alignment between CEO total direct compensation and Mylan TSR. The total direct compensation of Mylans CEO (base salary plus short-term incentives and grant date fair value of long-term incentives, other than, for 2014, awards granted in connection with the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program (as defined below)) over the past five years is well aligned with Company stock performance, as shown below: |
18
Strong Shareholder Support and Approval for Compensation Actions
Mylan implemented several important compensation actions in 2014 and early 2015. As described in detail below, among these important actions were the implementation of the One-Time Special Performance-Based Five-Year Realizable Value Incentive Program (the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program) and certain actions taken in connection with the Abbott Transaction. Consistent with Mylans robust shareholder outreach program over the past few years, Mylan approached each of these actions with a view toward the best interests of shareholders, and our shareholders were strongly supportive of these actions. The One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program was described in extensive detail in the Proxy Statement for Mylans 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. At that meeting the advisory proposal on compensation matters received the strong support and approval of Mylans shareholders. In addition, the compensation actions taken in connection with the Abbott Transaction were described in extensive detail in the Proxy Statement for Mylans Special Meeting of Shareholders. At that meeting the advisory proposal on compensation matters relating to the Abbott Transaction received the overwhelming support and approval of Mylans shareholders.
Adoption and Shareholder Approval of One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program for More than 100 Key Employees
The One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program described below was extensively described in the Proxy Statement for Mylans 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. At that meeting the advisory proposal on compensation matters received the strong support and approval of Mylans shareholders.
In 2012, we announced an ambitious financial goal of achieving adjusted EPS of at least $6.00 by the end of 2018, which would represent a more than doubling of our adjusted EPS for fiscal year 2013 ($2.89) and a 16% compound annual growth rate in adjusted EPS over the five-year period from 2013 through 2018. We believe that the accomplishment of this goal has the potential to create significant new value for our shareholders.

One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program
As described in the Proxy Statement for Mylans 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, our Compensation Committee and independent Directors engaged in extensive deliberation and analysis to determine how to further incentivize our talented management to achieve our ambitious adjusted EPS goal and create the significant shareholder value that we expect would follow. Based on that extensive discussion and analysis, as well as consultation with shareholders and leading experts in the field of executive compensation, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors determined in February 2014 that it was in the best interests of the Company and shareholders to provide a special one-time, wholly performance-based supplemental incentive to a broad range of our executive officers and other key employees to further align their interests with those of shareholders and with our key business strategies as they work to achieve this next transformation of Mylan. Accordingly, in February 2014, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors adopted our One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program, pursuant to which we granted more than 100 of those key employees who we believe will be essential to achieving our goals a one-time, performance-based award (the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards). As discussed in more detail in the sections that follow, this innovative new wholly performance-based program is a continuation of our robust pay-for-performance philosophy and is designed to pay out to those employees in full only if both adjusted EPS and our stock price increase significantly from then-current levels, with a five-year cliff-vesting provision. The program is also designed to ensure that there will not be a payout until our shareholders have the opportunity to receive newly created value. In addition, the program caps the maximum value payable to the employees who participate in the program.
In addition to further aligning key employees with shareholders to deliver outstanding performance and exceptional shareholder value, we believe that the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program will help to ensure that we further incentivize, and retain the essential talents and services of, those employees who have driven our outstanding performance and who are critical to ensuring the successful achievement of our long-term goals. The One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards were designed with the following five primary objectives:
Compensation Committee and Board Objectives |
Program Design | |||
1. |
Further Incentivize and Align Executives to Achieve $6.00 Adjusted EPS Goal | 100% Performance Vesting Based on Adjusted EPS Goal. Regardless of Stock Price, There Will be Full Payment Only if Adjusted EPS Goal is Achieved. | ||
2. |
Full Value Realized Only if Stock Price Appreciates Significantly | Regardless of Achievement of Adjusted EPS Goal, Participants Will Realize Full Value of Awards Only if Stock Price Has Reached $73.33 Per Share at Time of Settlement. Participants Will Realize No Value from Awards if Stock Price is Below $53.33 Per Share at Time of Settlement. | ||
3. |
Retention of Key Employees Through 2018 | Five-Year Cliff Vesting | ||
4. |
Expand Program to a Broader Group of Key Employees Critical to Achieving Our Ambitious Goal | More than 100 Participants | ||
5. |
All While Minimizing Share Usage and Maintaining Acceptable Burn Rate | Award Value Capped Stock Appreciation Above $73.33 Has No Effect on Value to Participants. Mix of Award Types (SARs and RSUs) to Mitigate Share Usage and Burn Rate. |
Further Incentivize and Align with Shareholders to Achieve Adjusted EPS Goal. The One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards will vest in full only if we achieve adjusted EPS of at least $6.00 by
20
December 31, 2018. If we do not achieve a minimum adjusted EPS of at least $5.40 (90% of the target of $6.00) by December 31, 2018, the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards will be forfeited (other than in the event of a change in control, as described below). Achievement of the minimum adjusted EPS will result in vesting of only 50% of the awards. However, as noted below, there will be no payment if we achieve adjusted EPS of $6.00, but our stock price does not exceed the required minimum share price.
Retain Employees Through 2018 With Five-Year Cliff Vesting. The One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards are subject to five-year cliff vesting, and provide value to the participants only if they remain with the Company through the end of the five-year performance period, except as specified in an employment agreement, and therefore serve to further advance our goal of retaining our talented executive officers and other key employees through this next transformational period in light of the risks we face as our achievements are increasingly recognized and competitors seek to hire our talented employees. Awards will generally only be payable prior to the end of the five-year performance period if we can achieve both our $6.00 adjusted EPS goal and a stock price of $73.33 per share, which would represent an extraordinary achievement by our leadership team in such a short period of time.
Compensate Executives Only After Shareholders Receive Newly Created Value. The One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards are also tied to driving the Companys stock price upwards, providing full value to the participants only if in addition to achievement of significantly increased adjusted EPS our stock price increases to at least $73.33 per share during the performance period, thereby creating significant new value for shareholders before key employees are paid in full. Even if we achieve in full our $6.00 adjusted EPS goal, the awards will have no value if our stock price does not exceed $53.33 per share at the time of settlement. The minimum stock price of $53.33 per share represents a premium of two dollars above our closing price on the date of grant. When the Compensation Committee first reviewed the proposed structure of the program (including the minimum stock price of $53.33) in October 2013, the minimum stock price represented a premium of more than 30% above the then-current trading price of our common stock.
Expand Program to a Broader Group of Key Employees Critical to Achieving Our Ambitious Goal. The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors believed that it was critical for more than our NEOs to participate in the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program. Mylan has a large and extremely talented workforce, and many of our other employees are essential to achieving our ambitious strategic business goals. As a result, the program has more than 100 participants in multiple jurisdictions around the globe.
Minimize Share Usage and Maintain Acceptable Burn Rate. In adopting the program, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors also gave consideration to striking the appropriate balance between further aligning the incentives of our executive officers and key employees and minimizing potential share dilution and maintaining an acceptable burn rate, in part by placing a cap on the awards potential value and in part by utilizing a mix of different award types (such as stock appreciation rights and performance-vesting restricted stock units) to deliver value to participants in an efficient manner that minimizes the number of outstanding awards and amount of share dilution. One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards have a value that increases solely to the extent our stock price exceeds $53.33 per share, but under the cap, appreciation in our stock price ceases to affect the value of awards if our stock price exceeds $73.33 per share. The cap value represents a premium of $20 per share above the $53.33 minimum stock price. This price level was chosen because it balances our goals of minimizing share usage and maintaining an acceptable burn rate while still creating a powerful incentive to execute on our five-year strategic business plan and to create significant shareholder value. Because of this cap, if all the awards granted to all participants (excluding subsequent grants for new hires) vested in full, the value of such awards would, at most, amount to less than 4% of the potential market capitalization created (relative to the $53.33 minimum stock price), with the other 96% directly benefiting our shareholders, thereby fully aligning participants and shareholders. The Compensation Committee, the independent Directors, and their advisors believe that this amount is a reasonable and fair incentive that is all performance-based, with five-year cliff vesting, and tied to very ambitious goals to provide to our extraordinary and invaluable executive officers and key employees in the event that they meet such challenging goals and create such a
21
substantial amount of value for shareholders. In the event that our leadership team is able to achieve a stock price equal to or greater than the cap of $73.33 prior to the end of the 2018, the number of shares to be received under the program will be locked in based on that stock price realized for shareholders, but payment of the award value to employees will continue to be subject to the requirement that we first achieve at least 90% of our adjusted EPS goal.
Additional Terms. As of immediately prior to a change in control, the awards under the program will automatically be settled in the number of shares of Company common stock (or other consideration paid for shares of Company common stock in the change in control), representing the appreciation in value of our stock price above the minimum stock price (subject to the cap) as of such change in control. Thus, the awards will have no value in a change in control transaction except to the extent that our stock price appreciates above the minimum stock price. As described below, although the Abbott Transaction was potentially a change in control for purposes of the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards, all of the participants in the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program voluntarily executed a one-time waiver of their rights to receive change in control treatment, and the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards continue to remain outstanding subject to their existing terms.
Process for Development and Adoption of the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program
The One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program was developed by the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors through a rigorous, multi-layered process, with the advice of external experts in the field of executive compensation and incentives, including special incentive programs such as this one. Among others, the Board was advised by Meridian Compensation Partners, the Compensation Committees independent advisor, as well as Pay Governance LLC, which was retained specifically to assist on this matter. In addition, in late 2013, members of our Board of Directors and senior management engaged in extensive outreach to shareholders regarding our compensation practices, including in-person meetings with shareholders representing more than 30% of our outstanding shares. In these meetings, we discussed the rationale, context, and importance of implementing such a program, given where Mylan was at the time and our stated future strategic business objectives. Shareholders expressed strong support for the establishment of an incentive plan for a large group of key employees tied to the creation of substantial new shareholder value, particularly the wholly performance-based aspects of the proposed plan and its five-year cliff vesting provision. After taking into account the input from shareholders and our advisors, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors adopted the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program to align key employees with shareholders to achieve our long-term performance goals, retain key employees, and substantially increase shareholder value.
Named Executive Officer Awards
Following adoption of the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors approved grants of awards under the program to each of our NEOs in the form of stock appreciation rights (SARs), with a value linked to both achievement of our long-term performance goals and increases in our stock price, as described above, and contingent upon each NEOs continued employment with the Company through 2018 (except as described below), subject to eligibility for vesting in the event of a change in control.

Extension of Senior Executive Employment Agreements
The extension of Executive Employment Agreements described below was also extensively described in the Proxy Statement for Mylans 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. At that meeting the advisory proposal on compensation matters received the strong support and approval of Mylans shareholders.
Corporate Leadership, Vision, and Performance
The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors believe that, to be successful in achieving both the Companys ambitious five-year strategic business plan, as well as developing strategies for longer-term sustainable growth, we must maintain our strong, talented, dedicated, and unified leadership team, while continuing to attract world-class talent to the Company. The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors carefully and at great length considered, among other factors: the exceptional quality and performance-driven corporate culture that Mr. Coury has fostered and developed during his tenure; the proven effectiveness of Mr. Courys unique and unconventional leadership style and the continued responsiveness of employees and executives around the world to his leadership; the continued outstanding performance of the Company and development of executives under Mr. Courys leadership; Mr. Courys extraordinary focus on building the Company for sustainable, long-term success, including his instrumental role in establishing and optimizing the robust global platform that Mylan enjoys today; identifying strategic and accretive acquisitions; and his focus on identifying new strategies for continued and sustainable long-term growth after 2018. The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors also considered the successful and exceptional strategic execution by Ms. Bresch as she oversees and runs the Company on a day-to-day basis and successfully manages the integration of acquired businesses and companies, and the outstanding performance and results of Mr. Malik as he continues to oversee the Companys vast operations around the world.
Entering 2014, the independent Directors had two years of experience overseeing Mylans proven, successful enhanced management structure, consisting of Mr. Coury as Executive Chairman, Ms. Bresch as CEO, Mr. Malik as President, as well as many other key executives in place. Based on this experience, and the outstanding performance and track record of the leadership team, the independent Directors had further evidence of the wisdom, strength, and effectiveness of this management structure for Mylan, its employees, shareholders, and other stakeholders. The independent Directors recognized the challenges of meeting or exceeding our ambitious five-year strategic business plan, while at the same time pursuing the equally challenging goal of developing a successful vision and strategy for longer-term success and sustainability. The independent Directors carefully considered what leadership structure and personnel based on the current and anticipated future size and complexity of the Company would best serve the interests of the Company, its shareholders, and other stakeholders as the Company executes on these goals. The independent Directors also considered the need for continued leadership focus on operational and execution excellence, the benefits of stability, and the solidarity of the management team around the world, as well as the continued high level of responsiveness of the broader workforce to the leadership team.
23
Based on these considerations, among others, and supported by the performance of the Company over the past decade, the independent Directors extensive individual and collective experience with the Company, their interactions with and oversight of management, and the considerable time spent by the independent Directors observing and evaluating the Companys leadership, including their respective accomplishments, talents, and potential, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and shareholders to maintain the current enhanced leadership structure and to secure the services of Messrs. Coury and Malik and Ms. Bresch through 2018 to lead and oversee the execution towards our stated 2018 target as well as developing the vision and the enhanced platforms, infrastructure, and employee base necessary to promoting sustainable growth into the next decade. Accordingly, in February 2014 the independent Directors and the Compensation Committee approved extensions of the executive employment agreements for Mr. Coury, Ms. Bresch, and Mr. Malik through 2018. Details of those contracts are provided below.
Extension of Mr. Courys Employment Agreement
Mr. Coury has served as our most senior executive, first as Mylans Chief Executive Officer, and currently as Mylans Executive Chairman, for more than a decade. During his tenure as a Mylan executive, Mylans shareholders have benefited from an increase in market capitalization of more than $17 billion through December 31, 2014. In those roles, Mr. Coury has consistently identified new, industry-shaping strategies for our continued and sustainable growth, including his recognition of the importance of transforming Mylan from a U.S.-focused company to a company with a global footprint and his realization of that vision. Mr. Coury has also been a highly effective leader of our key acquisitions, including evaluating, directing, and overseeing our most recent acquisitions of the non-U.S. specialty generics business of Abbott Laboratories, which provided Mylan entry into new high-growth geographic markets, and Agila Specialties, which created a global leader in the injectables category.
As our Executive Chairman since the beginning of 2012, Mr. Coury has continued to be deeply and actively involved in overseeing the executive management team and significant strategies. Mr. Coury has committed, pursuant to his Executive Employment Agreement, to accept explicit responsibility for continuing to lead the strategic direction of the Company, oversee the development of its key executives, and direct and oversee strategy with respect to significant mergers and acquisitions, among other essential duties.
Following the end of each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors evaluate Mr. Courys performance as Executive Chairman, including as to whether he has successfully completed the duties assigned to him under his Executive Employment Agreement. In early 2015, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors performed their review of Mr. Coury with respect to 2014, and found that Mr. Coury continued to perform at an extraordinary level as Executive Chairman, including with respect to his oversight of managements execution of the Companys five-year strategic business plan, his outstanding and effective leadership, his exceptional leadership regarding major merger and acquisition strategies and transactions, including leading, directing, and overseeing the Abbott Transaction, and his continued work on leading the development of business growth strategies through 2018 and beyond, as well as his other responsibilities.
The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors believe that Mr. Coury has continued to meet the extraordinary expectations placed upon him since making him Executive Chairman, and further believe that Mr. Courys continued strong, effective leadership, along with Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik, continued to be critical for Mylan to continue the tremendous growth we have experienced over the last several years. In particular, the independent Directors have charged Mr. Coury with continued oversight of senior managements execution on our $6.00 adjusted EPS goal, continued optimization of the global platforms that were developed and made possible by decisions led by Mr. Coury in prior years, and continued direction and oversight of major merger and acquisition activity, as well as the other responsibilities described in his Executive Employment Agreement. Just as importantly, the independent Directors have instructed Mr. Coury to work simultaneously on business strategies for Mylan beyond 2018 that will continue to transform the Company in ways that enhance shareholder value while continuing to set new standards in health care. In determining the necessary and appropriate means to align, incentivize, and
24
retain Mr. Coury over the term of the extended agreement, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors believed that it was in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to incentivize Mr. Coury to continue to oversee senior managements execution of our five-year strategic business plan and Mylans development of long-range business goals following such five-year period, and to continue executing on the other responsibilities set forth in his Executive Employment Agreement.
The incentive features of Mr. Courys employment agreement extension were designed with four objectives:
Compensation Committee and Board Objectives |
Design Feature | |||
1. |
Further Incentivize and Align Mr. Coury to Lead the Strategic Development of Mylan, Oversee Development of Key Executives, Lead Significant Merger and Acquisition Transactions, and Other Required Duties | Provide an Incentive to Mr. Coury Tied to Completion of Required Duties Under Executive Employment Agreement | ||
2. |
Balance Mr. Courys Focus on 2018 Adjusted EPS Goal and Development of Business Growth Strategies for 2018 and Beyond | Equal Value Allocated to Award under One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program and Incentive Tied to Executive Chairman Duties | ||
3. |
Further Incentivize Exceptional Performance and Align Mr. Coury to Oversee the Achievement of $6.00 Adjusted EPS Goal | Grant an Award Under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program. Award Only Payable in Full if Adjusted EPS Goal is Achieved and Stock Price Has Reached $73.33 at Time of Settlement | ||
4. |
Retention of Mr. Coury as Executive Chairman Through 2018 | Executive Employment Agreement Term Extended Through End of 2018 |
By providing Mr. Coury with an incentive award divided equally between a 50% stock-based component tied to the satisfaction of our $6.00 adjusted EPS goal and our stock price and a 50% cash-based component tied to the satisfaction of Mr. Courys required duties under his Executive Employment Agreement, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors believe that Mr. Coury will be best aligned with shareholders in overseeing execution of our $6.00 adjusted EPS goal and, importantly, incentivized to forego his ability to retire and access his accrued and vested pension and related entitlements to continue his work on our future business strategies. In developing and approving the structure of the incentive award, the Compensation Committee engaged in extensive evaluation and discussion, considered numerous financial analyses, reviewed market precedents, and consulted with its independent consultant, Meridian Compensation Partners, and other independent Directors. The Compensation Committee also noted that the annual value of the cash component of the incentive award is approximately the same as the annual value of the supplemental pension given to Mr. Coury in exchange for his agreement to extend his employment in 2011 and create our enhanced leadership structure, and which was fully earned as of January 1, 2014.
Except as noted below, the terms of the newly extended Executive Employment Agreement with Mr. Coury are substantially the same as Mr. Courys previously effective Executive Employment Agreement. In particular, during the five-year term of this agreement, Mr. Coury will continue to serve as Executive Chairman and receive the same base salary, and is eligible for an annual cash bonus with the same target amount. In addition, in consideration of his agreement to continue to lead the Company through 2018 (and deferring his access to previously accrued benefits), pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Coury received an incentive award consisting of (i) one million SARs under our One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program (described in the previous section of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis), and (ii) the opportunity to earn a $20 million cash payment if Mr. Coury satisfies the requirements specified in his Executive Employment Agreement through at least December 31, 2016.
25
In the event that Mr. Courys employment is terminated without cause or due to death or disability, or Mr. Coury resigns for good reason (each as defined in the extended Executive Employment Agreement), Mr. Courys rights to the incentive award vest. As described below, in connection with the Abbott Transaction Mr. Coury executed a one-time waiver acknowledging that he would not have good reason to terminate his employment with Mylan as a result of the Abbott Transaction.
Extension of Ms. Breschs and Mr. Maliks Employment Agreements
The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors continue to believe that Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik are essential to the Companys ability to realize our five-year strategic business goal and to continue to achieve sustainable growth over the long-term. Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik continue to develop as extraordinarily talented executives with proven track records as they oversee our day-to-day business and our global operations. The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors determined that it was in the best interests of Mylan and shareholders to obtain the benefit of their services through 2018 through the extension of their Executive Employment Agreements.
Except as noted below, the terms of our extended Executive Employment Agreements with Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik are substantially the same as each of their previously effective Executive Employment Agreements. In particular, during the five-year term of these agreements, Ms. Bresch will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Malik will continue to serve as President. Pursuant to the extended agreement with Ms. Bresch, in consideration of her continued excellent execution and leadership, the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors determined to increase Ms. Breschs annual base salary to $1,200,000 for 2014 and her target annual cash bonus was increased to 150%. Pursuant to the extended agreement with Mr. Malik, in consideration of his continued operational excellence and leadership, Mr. Maliks annual base salary was increased to $900,000 for 2014. In addition, Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik received 1,400,000 and 1,200,000 SARs, respectively, under our One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program (described in the previous section of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis). In the event the employment of Ms. Bresch or Mr. Malik was terminated for any reason in calendar year 2014, all of the SARs would have been forfeited. In the event the employment of Ms. Bresch or Mr. Malik is terminated without cause or due to death or disability, or if Ms. Bresch or Mr. Malik resigns for good reason (each as defined in their extended Executive Employment Agreement) in calendar years 2015 or 2016, Ms. Bresch or Mr. Malik will remain eligible to vest in a pro rata portion of the SARs, subject to the achievement of the applicable performance goals, and in the case of such terminations of employment in subsequent periods, Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik will remain eligible to vest in all of the SARs, subject to the achievement of the applicable performance goals.
Treatment of Equity-Based Awards and Certain Individual Agreements in Connection with the Abbott Transaction
The compensation actions described below, which were taken in connection with the Abbott Transaction, were extensively described in the Proxy Statement for Mylans Special Meeting of Shareholders regarding the Abbott Transaction. At that meeting the advisory proposal on compensation matters received the overwhelming support and approval of Mylans shareholders.
The Abbott Transaction had certain implications under the Companys compensation plans and programs and individual arrangements with certain employees (including the NEOs) and also implicated the excise tax under Section 4985 of the Code on the value of certain equity-based awards held by the Directors and NEOs (the Transaction-Related Excise Tax). Section 4985 of the Code imposes the Transaction-Related Excise Tax (15% in 2014 and 2015) on the value of certain equity-based compensation held at any time during the six months before and six months after the closing of certain inversion transactions by individuals who were and/or are directors or executive officers of the parties to the transactions and subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act during the same period. The Transaction-Related Excise Tax applies to all payments (or rights to payment) granted to such persons by the party to the transaction to which the individual provides services and its affiliates in connection with the performance of such services if the value of such payment or right is based on (or determined by reference to) the value (or change in value) of stock in the applicable entity or its affiliates
26
(excluding incentive stock options (ISOs) and holdings in tax-qualified plans), which would include any outstanding (i) unexercised vested or unvested nonqualified stock options or SARs, (ii) unvested restricted stock awards, (iii) unvested restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance-based RSUs (PRSUs), and (iv) other equity compensation, in each case, held by such directors and executive officers during this twelve-month period. However, the Transaction-Related Excise Tax does not apply to (i) any stock option or SAR that is exercised prior to the closing of the inversion transaction if income is recognized under Section 83 of the Code on or before such date with respect to the shares acquired as a result of such exercise and (ii) any other specified equity-based compensation that is exercised, sold, exchanged, distributed, cashed-out, or otherwise paid prior to the closing in a transaction in which income, gain, or loss is recognized in full. Because Mr. Korman retired from the Company effective July 1, 2014, he was not a NEO at the time of the Abbott Transaction and therefore was not subject to the Transaction-Related Excise Tax.
Equity-Based Awards
The Board carefully reviewed the two approaches taken by other issuers in transactions similar to the Abbott Transaction with respect to the Transaction-Related Excise Tax: (i) accelerating the vesting of equity-based awards such that stock options may be exercised, and other equity-based awards are settled, prior to the transaction so that the Transaction-Related Excise Tax does not apply to them or (ii) providing Directors and NEOs with a tax reimbursement payment for the cost of the Transaction-Related Excise Tax. After such review, including consultation with external experts, the Board determined that neither approach alone would be in the interests of Mylan nor accomplish and appropriately balance the objectives of minimizing costs, maintaining proper incentives, and not diminishing the retentive and motivating effect of the NEOs equity awards by depriving them of a substantial portion of the value. In particular, the Board determined that, given the unique terms and structure of the Abbott Transaction, it would be an inefficient use of shareholder resources to provide the Directors and NEOs with a tax reimbursement payment covering all outstanding equity-based awards, especially when some of the covered awards are vested or would vest in the ordinary course in a relatively short period following the Abbott Transaction. As a result, the Board determined to utilize a hybrid of these two approaches that takes into account a variety of factors, including the purpose of the types of equity-based awards held by the Directors and NEOs and the remaining vesting period of the applicable awards.
In reaching this determination, the Board carefully considered the appropriate manner in which to treat the equity-based awards of the Directors and NEOs in connection with the Abbott Transaction and determined that the overall treatment described below served to: (i) minimize cost to the Company; (ii) maintain proper incentives for the affected individuals to remain with the Company and to continue achieving exceptional operating performance, long-term financial objectives, and the creation of shareholder value as they have consistently done in the past; and (iii) ensure that the Directors and NEOs did not bear the burden of the Transaction-Related Excise Tax, which did not apply to other Mylan shareholders and would have deprived them of a substantial portion of the value of their equity-based awards that they hold, when they were critically important to the Companys past success and in negotiating the transformative opportunity for the Company represented by the Abbott Transaction and continue to be critically important to its successful implementation and execution, and our future strategy and performance.
Ordinary Course Annual Equity-Based Awards Other than Stock Options Granted in 2014. The Board determined that the vesting of all unvested stock options, RSUs, and PRSUs granted to Directors and NEOs as part of the Companys ordinary course annual equity compensation program, other than ISOs (which are not subject to the Transaction-Related Excise Tax) and the stock options granted in 2014 (because of their recent grant and, therefore, strong incentive for retention and shareholder value creation), would be accelerated prior to the closing of the Abbott Transaction. The Board believed that this approach was advisable and in the best interests of Mylan because it avoided the expense to the Company of providing a tax reimbursement payment for the Transaction-Related Excise Tax with respect to these awards, which the Board believed the Directors and NEOs would likely have eventually received even absent the Abbott Transaction given the Companys expected future performance.
27
One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program and 2014 Stock Option Grants. As discussed above, in March 2014, the Board granted awards under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program to retain and further align more than 100 key employees with long-term shareholder interests and further motivate them to achieve the Companys ambitious goals of achieving at least $6.00 of adjusted EPS by the end of 2018 and deliver significant additional shareholder value over that period. The awards granted pursuant to the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program provide for the possibility of accelerated vesting upon a change in control, and the Abbott Transaction constituted a potential change in control under the terms of such awards. Due to the critical role of these awards in driving the Company toward its goal of achieving at least $6.00 of adjusted EPS by the end of 2018, the Board determined that it was advisable and in the best interests of the Company to seek one-time waivers of the accelerated vesting of such awards, and Mylan received such a waiver from each of the relevant participants. Accordingly, the vesting of these awards held by NEOs was not accelerated in connection with the Abbott Transaction. In addition, because of their recent grant and, therefore, strong incentive for retention and shareholder value creation, the vesting of stock options granted in 2014 was not accelerated in connection with the Abbott Transaction. Instead, the Board determined that the Directors and NEOs would receive a tax reimbursement payment from Mylan with respect to the Transaction-Related Excise Tax imposed on awards granted under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program and the stock options granted in 2014, so that, on a net after-tax basis, they would be in the same position as if the Transaction-Related Excise Tax had not been imposed. The Board believed that the exceptional and unique nature of this program and the strong incentives inherent in the stock options granted in 2014 warranted the limited cost of the tax reimbursement payment, particularly when viewed in relation to both the anticipated benefits of the Abbott Transaction and, with respect to the awards under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program, the shareholder value that is expected to be created if the goal of achieving adjusted EPS of at least $6.00 by the end of 2018 is achieved. Payment of the excise tax plus tax reimbursement resulted in no unique benefit to the Directors and NEOs but only placed them in the same position as other equity-based award holders after the Abbott Transaction. The Board determined that no director or NEO would receive a tax reimbursement payment for any Transaction-Related Excise Tax imposed on stock options granted prior to 2014 that such director or NEO was able to but choose not to exercise prior to the closing of the Abbott Transaction.
Individual Agreements
As a result of the Abbott Transaction, Mr. Coury would potentially have had good reason to terminate his employment with Mylan under the terms of his amended Executive Employment Agreement and receive severance and other benefits under his employment agreement (including, among other things, the $20 million performance incentive bonus granted thereunder). In addition, each of the NEOs, among other employees, is party to a transition and succession agreement with Mylan. The Abbott Transaction potentially constituted a change in control of Mylan for purposes of the Transition and Succession Agreements with each of the NEOs, which would have entitled each of them, with the exception of Mr. Coury, to enhanced severance and other benefits upon certain qualifying terminations of employment after the Abbott Transaction. Finally, the Abbott Transaction potentially constituted a change in control of Mylan for purposes of the Retirement Benefit Agreements with certain NEOs, which would have entitled Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Malik and Sheehan to accelerated vesting of the benefits under those agreements. The Board determined, however, that, given the unique terms and structure of the Abbott Transaction, among other factors, it was advisable and in the best interests of Mylan to clarify the effect of the Abbott Transaction on the NEOs and seek one-time waivers acknowledging that Mr. Coury would not have good reason to terminate his employment with Mylan as a result of the Abbott Transaction and that the Abbott Transaction would not constitute a change in control for purposes of the Transition and Succession Agreements or the Retirement Benefit Agreements, and Mylan has received such waivers from each of the relevant NEOs. Accordingly, the Abbott Transaction did not trigger, and none of the NEOs were entitled to, severance, change in control payments, early vesting, or other benefits under any individual contract described above as a result of the Abbott Transaction.

2014 Elements of Compensation
In 2014, the NEOs were compensated through base salary, an annual short-term incentive, an annual long-term incentive, the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards, employee benefits, and perquisites. Approximately 81% of annual NEO target compensation was tied to the Companys stock price or the achievement of key financial and operational performance goals, thereby closely aligning compensation with both the success of the Companys business strategy and objectives, as well as the value realized by shareholders. The following graphs show the relative weight of the base salary, target annual short-term incentive, and target annual long-term incentive (based on grant date fair value, and which does not include the value of the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards) components:
Base Salary Compensation
The Compensation Committee considers a variety of factors in deciding base salary, including, among others: individual performance, responsibilities, and expected future performance; Company performance; management structure; marketplace practices; internal equity considerations; and the executives experience, tenure, and leadership. The Compensation Committee also considers what the marketplace would require in terms of the replacement costs to hire a qualified individual to replace an executive, as well as the fact that a new executive would lack the critical knowledge base regarding the Company as compared to the executive he or she would be replacing.
For 2014, the base salaries of Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik increased 9.1% and 5.9%, respectively, reflecting their continued growth and experience in the roles that they assumed in 2012, as well as their performance and leadership, among other factors. For 2014, the base salary of Mr. Mauro increased 4.8%, reflecting his performance and increased role, among other factors. The base salaries of the other NEOs were not changed in 2014.

Short-Term Incentive Compensation
The Companys short-term incentive compensation for its executive officers consists of performance-based annual cash awards that are intended to align the interests of executives and investors by providing incentives based on a set of operational and financial measures critical to the successful execution of the Companys business strategy and which are expected to impact shareholder value.
29
Performance Measures. For 2014, short-term incentives were based on adjusted EPS, global regulatory submissions, and adjusted free cash flow. These measures represent key performance indicators of the current and future strength of our business.
| Adjusted EPS is an important metric for Mylan and its shareholders because earnings are expected to have a direct relationship to the price of the Companys common stock. |
| The global regulatory submissions metric measures the number of filings submitted to global regulatory agencies for new products. This is also an important metric because approval and commercialization of new products yield new revenue sources, are essential for Mylan to remain competitive in a constantly evolving industry, and are therefore fundamental to our short- and long-term strategy for growth. |
| Adjusted free cash flow also is an important metric because it captures the potential impact of all types of business transactions on the generation of adjusted operating cash flow, not merely changes in working capital. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as adjusted operating cash flow less net capital expenditures. |
The Compensation Committee set adjusted EPS and adjusted free cash flow targets at double-digit increases over prior year performance. The Compensation Committee set the global regulatory submissions target based on total submissions in our portfolio as of year end 2014. The following tables show the 2014 threshold, target, and maximum goals and the relative weightings of each metric:

The short-term incentive compensation earned by each of the NEOs for 2014 is set forth in the column entitled Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation in the Summary Compensation Table on page 39 of this 10-K/A. In the case of Mr. Korman, his incentive payout was pro-rated based on his period of active employment with the Company in 2014.
The Compensation Committee has committed to not using its discretion to upwardly adjust short-term incentive award amounts generated by the performance metrics.
30
Long-Term Incentive Compensation
The Compensation Committee believes that the value of long-term incentives should be directly related to the performance of the Companys common stock, as well as other operational and financial measures associated with the growth and success of the Company. The long-term equity grants awarded to the NEOs in 2014 under the 2003 Plan included:
| PRSUs that cliff-vest after a three-year period, assuming specified performance criteria are met and provided that the NEO remains continually employed by the Company; |
| Stock options with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Companys common stock on the date of grant, which ratably vest annually over a three-year period, provided that the NEO remains continually employed by the Company; and |
| RSUs that vest ratably over a three-year period, provided that the NEO remains continually employed by the Company. |
The long-term equity awards described above do not include the One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards, since those awards constitute an exceptional one-time award which is separate and apart from an executives ordinary course annual compensation.
Performance Metrics. For 2013 and continuing in 2014, the Compensation Committee determined to use the TSR of Mylans stock relative to that of peer companies as one of the metrics to which the PRSUs are subject. The other metric designated by the Compensation Committee was Cash Return on Operating Invested Capital, excluding goodwill and intangibles (ROIC). TSR and ROIC are each weighted 50% in the determination of the percentage of PRSUs that can be earned. The Compensation Committee believes that the use of these two metrics provides balance by rewarding the NEOs both for our performance relative to peer companies and for the returns generated by investments in our business. The following tables show the 2014 threshold, target, and maximum goals, and relative weightings.
Metric |
Weighting | Threshold | Target | Maximum | ||||
ROIC |
50% | 34% | 38% | 42% | ||||

50th Percentile of Peer Group |

Opportunity |
N/A | 50% | 100% | 150% |
* | Relative TSR is calculated by comparing the difference between the Companys 30-day trailing average closing common stock price at the beginning of the performance period and the end of the performance period plus any dividends paid during the performance period against the same metric for each company in our life sciences peer group. |
2014 Long-Term Incentive Awards. In 2014, each NEO received a grant of long-term equity awards with a targeted value at grant equal to a percentage of their base salary. The allocation of the award among PRSUs, stock options, and RSUs for each NEO was 60%, 20%, and 20%, respectively, of the NEOs total incentive long-term incentive award. Each PRSU entitles the recipient to a number of shares equal to between 50% and 150% of the target award, depending on actual achievement of the performance metrics outlined above over a three-year period. Achievement of threshold goals results in delivery of shares with respect to 50% of PRSUs granted, achievement of target goals results in delivery of shares with respect to 100% of PRSUs granted, and achievement of maximum goals results in delivery of shares with respect to 150% of PRSUs granted.
In connection with the Abbott Transaction, as described above, vesting of all of the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Awards, other than stock options, held by our NEOs, other than Mr. Korman, were accelerated and none of these awards currently remain outstanding. As discussed above, awards under the
31
One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program were also not accelerated in connection with the Abbott Transaction and remain outstanding.
Timing of Equity Award Grants. The Compensation Committee has historically approved annual equity grants in the first quarter of the fiscal year, which grants were made following the release of year-end audited financial results, with exceptions for new hires, promotions and other special awards, grants or circumstances. There is no exact date for the making of these equity grants each year. The Compensation Committee reviews its equity grant practices from time to time with respect to corporate best practices.
One-Time Special Performance-Based Awards
In addition, in 2014 the NEOs received grants of SARs in connection with the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program. The details of this program, including the awards to the NEOs, are described above.
Other Benefits and Agreements
The Company provides additional benefits to the NEOs in the form of:
| Perquisites |
| Retirement Benefits |
Perquisites. Perquisites include the following:
| Each NEO receives the use of a Company car or a car allowance. The executives are responsible for paying any taxes incurred relating to this perquisite. |
| Our senior executives take an extraordinarily active approach to overseeing and managing our global operations, which necessitates a significant amount of domestic and international travel time due to our diverse set of business centers, manufacturing and other facilities, and many client and vendor locations around the world. Accordingly, the Company owns two aircraft, the purpose of which is to assist in the management of the Companys global platform by providing a more efficient and secure traveling environment, personally and where sensitive business issues may be discussed or reviewed, as well as maximum flexibility to our executives. For reasons of business efficiency and continued security-related concerns (including personal security, especially given the global nature of the Companys business, as well as privacy of business information and communications), we require Mr. Coury and Ms. Bresch to use the Company aircraft for business and personal purposes. During 2014, other executives from time to time also were authorized to have personal use of the corporate aircraft for similar reasons. The Compensation Committee monitors business and personal aircraft usage on a periodic basis. To the extent any travel on the corporate aircraft results in imputed taxable income to a NEO, the Company does not provide gross-up payments to cover the officers personal income tax obligation due to such imputed income. For a summary of how this perquisite is calculated, see footnote (b) to the Summary Compensation Table on page 40 of this 10-K/A. |
Retirement Benefits. The Company has entered into Retirement Benefit Agreements (RBAs) with four of the NEOs Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Coury, Sheehan, and Malik in recognition of their service to the Company, to encourage their retention and to provide a supplemental form of retirement and death benefit. For a detailed description of the RBAs, see the section below entitled Retirement Benefit Agreements beginning on page 46 of this 10-K/A. The Company also maintains a 401(k) Restoration Plan (the Restoration Plan) and an Income Deferral Plan permitting senior level employees to elect to defer the receipt of a portion of their compensation and, in the case of the Restoration Plan, providing matching contributions to employees that make such an election; however, effective April 1, 2013, the
32
Company modified the Restoration Plan so that U.S. employees with an RBA would no longer receive matching contributions under the Restoration Plan.
The Compensation Committee approved an amendment to Mr. Courys RBA in October 2011, in connection with his retention and the enhanced management transition, to provide a retention incentive in his newly-created role as Executive Chairman of the Board. Mr. Courys RBA vested in full on January 1, 2014. On February 24, 2014, the Compensation Committee approved an additional amendment to Mr. Courys RBA to provide a fixed discount rate to be used for purposes of determining the present value of the retirement benefits provided to Mr. Coury pursuant to the RBA, so that the Companys obligation would no longer be subject to variations in the appropriate discount rate. For a detailed description of the RBAs, see the section below entitled Retirement Benefit Agreements on page 46 of this 10-K/A.
When Mr. Malik joined the Company in January 2007, the Company established a nonqualified deferred compensation plan on his behalf. Although the Company no longer contributes to the account, the plan account will be distributed to him upon the Companys termination of Mr. Maliks employment, or upon other qualifying distribution events, such as his retirement, disability, or death, or the Companys termination of the plan.
The Summary Compensation Table includes changes in pension values calculated based on certain actuarial assumptions regarding discount rates. As discussed above, Mr. Courys RBA was amended to fix the discount rate used in determining his pension value. In computing these amounts, we used the same assumptions that were used to determine the expense amounts recognized in our 2014 financial statements. In 2014, the impact of a decrease in the applicable discount rates led to an increase in the present value of accumulated benefits of approximately $0.4 million for Ms. Bresch, less than $0.1 million for Mr. Sheehan, and approximately $0.1 million for Mr. Malik.
As described above, each of the relevant NEOs executed a one-time waiver providing that the Abbott Transaction did not constitute a change in control for purposes of the RBAs.
Employment Agreements. We believe it is important to have employment agreements with our executive officers and other key employees. These agreements memorialize certain key terms of employment, including termination rights and obligations, non-competition and other restrictive covenants, and compensation and perquisites, and we believe thereby enhance the stability and continuity of our employment relationships. Each of the NEOs is party to an Executive Employment Agreement, except for Mr. Korman, who retired from the Company effective July 1, 2014. For a detailed description, see the section below entitled Employment Agreements beginning on page 47 of this 10-K/A. See also pages 23 to 26 of this 10-K/A for a discussion of the 2014 extensions of the Executive Employment Agreements for Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Coury and Malik.
Transition and Succession Agreements. The Company is party to separate Transition and Succession Agreements with each NEO, except for Mr. Korman, who retired from the Company effective July 1, 2014, and certain other officers, with an aim to assuring that the Company will have the officers full attention and dedication to the Company during the pendency of a possible change in control transaction that might optimize shareholder value, and to provide the officer with compensation and benefits in connection with a change in control. These agreements are independent of each such NEOs employment agreement. Subsequent to the execution of these agreements, the Company adopted a policy that no new Transition and Succession Agreements will provide for an excise tax gross up for golden parachute payments. For legal and other considerations, the Transition and Succession Agreements currently in effect and executed prior to the new policy are not subject to that policy. Since implementation of the new policy, no new or amended Transition and Succession Agreements have been executed.
For a detailed description of these Transition and Succession Agreements, see below, under Termination Under Transition and Succession Agreements (Change in Control) on page 51 of this 10-K/A.
33
As described above, each of the relevant executive officers executed a one-time waiver providing that the Abbott Transaction did not constitute a change in control for purposes of the Transition and Succession Agreements.
Compensation Committee Considerations in Evaluating Compensation
Our culture and our success in recent years have depended on our ability to attract and retain talented people in critical roles. The independent Directors believe that the remarkable growth and performance of the Company during the past decade is directly related to the unique leadership of Mr. Coury, Ms. Bresch, and Mr. Malik, and the talents of Mylans other senior executives, as well as Mylans workforce around the world.
The decisions of the Compensation Committee and the independent Directors relating to executive compensation each year reflect a variety of subjective considerations, over and above raw metrics. Our determinations reflect our individual and collective experience and business judgment, and are based on our extensive interactions with, and observations of, management, and our assessment of some or all of the following factors, among others:
| Company performance (relative to peers and budget); |
| Value realized by shareholders; |
| Individual performance and contributions to the success of the Company; |
| Responsibilities of, and future expectations for, the individual; |
| Short, medium, and long-term personnel needs of the Company; |
| The need to reward and retain our uniquely talented NEOs and other key employees; |
| Other qualitative contributions of each executive, including, among others, the actual and potential value and impact of his or her leadership style, strategic vision and execution, talent development, and ability to adapt to and drive the change necessary to our success; and |
| Peer group pay levels and published survey data. |
We consider these and other qualitative and quantitative factors from time-to-time in assessing our compensation philosophy and approach, in addition to using these factors to make individual compensation decisions. The Compensation Committee and the independent Directors believe that, while peer groups may be helpful reference points, they do not substitute for the individual and collective judgment and experience of Directors who are intimately familiar with, among other matters that the Board oversees and opines on, the Company, its business, its strategies, its challenges, its opportunities, and the unique respective talents, contributions, leadership, responsibilities, and future expectations of the executives who drive performance and long-term sustainability.
Peer Groups
While the competitive market for our executives is one factor the Compensation Committee considers when making compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee does not target compensation of NEOs within a specific percentile of any set of peer companies. As noted, we use peer groups as one of many factors considered when determining compensation.
After review and consideration of these factors and consultation with experts in executive compensation, we developed the two peer groups listed below for 2014. The Compensation Committee refers to both peer groups as reference points when evaluating executive pay and performance. As was the
34
case previously, pay is not formulaically tied to a particular percentile of either peer group or the blended group. Instead, those groups are considered as part of the overall mix of subjective, qualitative, and quantitative information considered by the Compensation Committee.
Life Sciences Peer Group
This group consists of companies with revenues ranging from approximately 0.5x2.5x the Companys revenue. Because the generic pharmaceutical market is limited, we include companies in the following GICS industries Pharmaceuticals, Health Care Equipment & Supplies, Biotechnology, and Life Sciences Tools & Services:
Actavis, Inc. | Biogen Idec Inc. | Hospira Inc. | ||
Agilent Technologies Inc. | Boston Scientific Corp | Medtronic Inc. | ||
Allergan Inc. | Celgene Corp. | St Jude Medical Inc. | ||
Amgen Inc. | Covidien Plc | Stryker Corp | ||
Baxter International Inc. | Forest Laboratories | Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. | ||
Becton Dickinson & Co. | Gilead Sciences, Inc. | Zimmer Holdings Inc. |
Pharmaceutical Competitors Peer Group
This group includes companies with substantial generic pharmaceutical portfolios with which we compete for business and talent on a global basis:
Actavis, Inc. | Hospira Inc. | Sanofi-Aventis | ||
Endo Health Solutions | Novartis AG | Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd | ||
Forest Laboratories | Pfizer Inc. |
The Compensation Committee has made changes to the Companys peer group in 2015 to reflect consolidation in the Companys industry and the structure of the Company following the Abbott Transaction.
Role of Compensation Committee, Consultants, and Management
In 2014, the Compensation Committee retained Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC and Pay Governance LLC to provide advice and information regarding the design and implementation of the Companys executive compensation programs. Meridian also provided information to the Compensation Committee regarding regulatory and other technical developments that may be relevant to the Companys executive compensation programs. In addition, Meridian provided the Compensation Committee with competitive market information, analyses, and trends on executive base salary, short-term incentives, long-term incentives, benefits, and perquisites.
The Compensation Committee and management also receive advice from outside counsel including, but not limited to, Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP.
The Compensation Committee also receives input from management; however, decisions on these matters are made solely by the Compensation Committee and/or the independent Directors.
The Compensation Committee performs an annual review of the independence of its outside advisors, consistent with NASDAQ requirements and the Compensation Committee charter.
Consideration of Risk in Company Compensation Policies
Management and the Compensation Committee have considered and discussed the risks inherent in our business and the design of our compensation plans, policies, and programs that are intended to drive the achievement of our business objectives. We believe that the nature of our business, and the material risks we face, are such that the compensation plans, policies, and programs we have put in place are not
35
reasonably likely to give rise to risks that would have a material adverse effect on our business. We believe that the mix and design of the elements of executive compensation do not encourage management to assume excessive risks. Finally, as described in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, our compensation programs and decisions include qualitative factors which we believe restrain the influence that an overly formulaic approach may have on excessive risk taking by management.
Deductibility Cap on Executive Compensation
Section 162(m) of the Code restricts the deductibility for federal income tax purposes of the compensation paid to the Chief Executive Officer and each of the other NEOs (other than our Chief Financial Officer) for any fiscal year to the extent that such compensation for such executive exceeds one million dollars and does not qualify as performance-based compensation as defined under Section 162(m) of the Code. The Compensation Committee generally takes available opportunities to be able to deduct compensation paid to NEOs for federal income tax purposes. The Compensation Committee, however, reserves the right to grant compensation to our executives that is not deductible, including but not limited to when necessary to comply with contractual commitments, or to maintain the flexibility needed to attract talent, promote retention, or recognize and reward desired performance.
Clawback Policy
The Board has approved a clawback policy relating to incentive compensation programs. The provisions of the policy allow Mylan to recoup certain bonus and equity-based incentive compensation gains resulting from specified misconduct that causes the Company to materially restate its financial statements. The Board intends to review and consider updates to this policy from time-to-time. In addition, to the extent that the SEC adopts rules for clawback policies that require changes to our policy, we will revise our policy accordingly.
Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy
The Board has approved a securities trading policy that prohibits Directors and certain executive officers from engaging in any transaction designed to limit or eliminate economic risks associated with the ownership of our equity or debt securities by trading in certain types of hedging instruments relating to any of our securities. Hedging instruments include prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, exchange funds, insurance contracts, short sales, options, puts, calls, or other instruments designed to hedge or offset movements in the price of our stock or debt. The policy also prohibits Directors and certain executive officers from entering into transactions that involve the holding of Mylan securities in margin accounts (other than the cashless exercise of stock options) or the pledging of Mylan equity or debt securities as collateral for loans, with certain exceptions approved by the Compensation Committee if the executive demonstrates that he or she has the continuing financial capacity to repay any underlying loan or potential margin call without resorting to the Company equity or debt securities. To the extent that the SEC adopts rules for anti-hedging and pledging policies that require changes to our policy, we will revise our policy accordingly.
Share Ownership Requirements
The ownership requirements are expressed as a multiple of base salary as follows:
Position |
Ownership Requirement (multiple of base salary) | |
Executive Chairman of the Board |
6x | |
CEO |
6x | |
President |
4x | |
Other NEOs |
3x |
In addition to the NEOs, Mylans stock ownership policy covers approximately 140 of the most senior executives in the Company to promote an ownership culture and stronger alignment with the
36
interests of shareholders among the broader leadership team. Each executive generally has five years from the adoption of the policy to achieve the minimum ownership requirement. Shares actually owned by the executive (including shares held by the executive in the Companys 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan), as well as unvested RSUs and PRSUs count toward compliance with these requirements.
As of December 31, 2014, all of the NEOs were in compliance with these requirements.
37
Compensation Committee Report
We have reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on such review and discussions, we recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Companys Form 10-K/A.

(1) | Represents the grant date fair value of the stock awards granted to the NEO in 2014, 2013, and 2012, as applicable. For information regarding assumptions used in determining such expense, please refer to Note 10 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. |
(2) | Represents the grant date fair value of the option awards granted to the NEO in 2014, 2013, and 2012, as applicable. For 2014, also includes the grant date fair value of SARs granted under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program, which were as follows: $13,202,000 for Ms. Bresch; $11,316,000 for Mr. Malik; $9,430,000 for Mr. Coury; and $2,357,500 for Messrs. Sheehan, Mauro, and Korman. For information regarding assumptions used in determining such expense, please refer to Note 10 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. |
(3) | Represents amounts paid under the Companys non-equity incentive compensation plan. The amount for Mr. Korman is based on actual performance and is pro-rated based on his period of active employment with the Company in 2014. For a discussion of this plan, see the Compensation Discussion and Analysis set forth above. |
(4) | Represents the aggregate change in present value of the applicable NEOs accumulated benefit under his or her respective RBA or the Amended Retirement Benefit Agreement (Amended RBA) for Mr. Coury. The change in Mr. Courys benefit from 2013 to 2014 is the result of Mr. Coury vesting in the remaining one-half of his supplemental retirement benefit under the Amended RBA on January 1, 2014. In computing these amounts, we used the same assumptions that were used to determine the expense amounts recognized in our 2014 financial statements. In 2014, the impact of the change in the applicable federal discount rates led to an increase in the present value of accumulated benefits of approximately $0.4 million for Ms. Bresch, less than $0.1 million for Mr. Sheehan, and approximately $0.1 million for Mr. Malik. For further information concerning the RBAs, see the Pension Benefits for 2014 table set forth below and the discussion under Retirement Benefit Agreements on page 46 of this 10-K/A. |
(5) | Amounts shown in this column are detailed in the chart on the next page. |
39
(6) | In order to show the effect that the year-over-year change in pension value had on total compensation, as determined under applicable SEC rules, we have included an additional column to show total compensation less the change in pension value. The amounts reported in the Total without Changes in Pension Value column differ substantially from the amounts reported in the Total column required under SEC rules and are not a substitute for total compensation. Total without Change in Pension Value represents total compensation, as determined under applicable SEC rules, minus the change in pension value reported in the Changes in Pension Value and Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings column. The change in pension value is subject to many external variables that are not related to Company performance, such as interest rates. Therefore, we believe shareholders may find the accumulated pension benefits in the Pension Benefits for 2014 table on page 45 of this 10-K/A a more useful calculation of the pension benefits provided to the NEOs. |

(a) | In the case of Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Mauro, and Korman, these numbers represent a vehicle allowance. In the case of Mr. Malik, this number represents a vehicle allowance for a portion of 2014 and the cost of a vehicle (based on lease value) and insurance for the remainder of the year. In the case of Mr. Coury, this number represents the cost of a vehicle (based on lease value), insurance, and ancillary expenses associated with such vehicle. |
(b) | Amounts disclosed represent the actual aggregate incremental costs incurred by Mylan associated with the personal use of the Companys aircraft. Incremental costs include annual average hourly fuel and maintenance costs, landing and parking fees, customs and handling charges, passenger catering and ground transportation, crew travel expenses, away from home hanger fees, and other trip-related variable costs. Because the aircraft are used primarily for business travel, incremental costs exclude fixed costs that do not change based on usage, such as pilots salaries, aircraft purchase or lease costs, home-base hangar costs, and certain maintenance fees. Aggregate incremental cost as so determined with respect to personal deadhead flights is allocable to the NEO. In certain instances where there are both business and personal passengers, the incremental costs per hour are pro-rated. |
(c) | Represents a housing allowance afforded to Mr. Malik. For Mr. Korman, this represents the costs associated with his temporary housing in the Pittsburgh area. |
(d) | Expatriate benefits for Mr. Malik represent income taxes paid by the Company in connection with Mr. Maliks expatriate assignment to the United States from India effective January 1, 2012. Specifically, Mr. Malik is responsible for, and has continued to pay taxes equal to those he would have been obligated for had he maintained his principal work location and residence in India rather than having transferred, at the Companys request, to the United States, while the Company has responsibility for all additional taxes, including Mr. Maliks tax obligations on the imputed income associated with the Companys payment of taxes on his behalf. Amounts shown for 2014, 2013, and 2012 for Mr. Malik are net of the Companys estimated tax refunds for each year. Estimated refunds were approximately $1.5 million for 2014, $0.3 million for 2013, and $1.6 million for 2012. Expatriate benefits for Mr. Mauro represent income taxes paid by the Company in connection with certain equity awards held by Mr. Mauro relating to a period when he provided services in Canada. |
(e) | In 2014, amounts disclosed for Ms. Bresch included a matched contribution of $17,500, and a profit sharing contribution from the Company of $9,780. In 2014, such amounts for each of Messrs. Sheehan, Mauro, Coury, and Korman were $17,500 and $10,750, respectively. In 2013, amounts disclosed for Ms. Bresch included the total of a $9,808 matched contribution and $17,500 in Company profit sharing, and for each of Messrs. Sheehan, Coury, and Korman such amounts were $10,200 and |
40
$17,500, respectively. In 2012, amounts disclosed for Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Coury, and Korman included the total of a $10,000 matched contribution of each executive and a $17,150 profit sharing contribution from the Company. Effective April 1, 2013, Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Coury are no longer eligible to receive matching contributions under the Restoration Plan. |
(f) | See pages 45 and 46 of this 10-K/A for further information regarding Restoration Plan contributions. |
(g) | Represents out of pocket medical, vision, health insurance, long-term disability and life insurance retention plan premiums. For Mr. Malik, it also represents employee contributions to the Provident Fund, a statutory plan in India, and a health insurance premium. For Mr. Korman, it also includes consideration for his services as a consultant ($626K) and certain other limited benefits following his retirement, his unused vacation payout ($463K) as well as his life insurance retention plan payout ($336K) and aircraft usage. Also includes: events and memberships; certain security services; life insurance retention plan premium for Heather Bresch and Anthony Mauro; long-term disability premium for Heather Bresch, Harry Korman, Anthony Mauro, John Sheehan and Robert Coury; and executive physical for Heather Bresch and John Sheehan. |

(1) | Vesting of all of the unvested options listed above, other than those at the $55.84 exercise price, ISOs and SARs at the $53.33 exercise price, accelerated as of January 29, 2015 in connection with the Abbott Transaction as described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Vesting dates applicable to the unvested stock options at the $55.84 exercise price for Ms. Bresch, and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, Mauro, and Coury are as follows, in each case subject to continued employment with the Company: one-third of such options vested on March 5, 2015, and the remaining options will vest 50% on each of March 5, 2016 and 2017. Vesting dates applicable to the unvested ISOs for Ms. Bresch, and Messrs. Sheehan, Mauro, and Coury are as follows, in each case subject to continued employment with the Company: ISOs at the $23.44 exercise price vested on February 22, 2015 and ISOs at the $30.90 exercise price will vest on March 6, 2016. Mr. Malik does not hold any ISOs. Subject to applicable employment agreement provisions, following termination of employment, vested stock options will generally remain exercisable for 30 days following termination, except that (i) in the case of termination because of disability, 100% of options become vested and vested options will remain exercisable for two years following termination; (ii) in the case of a termination due to a reduction in force, vested options will remain exercisable for one year following termination; and (iii) in the case of death or retirement, or a participants death within two years following termination because of disability, 100% of options become vested and vested options will remain exercisable for the remainder of the original term. In the case of options granted in 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 to Mr. Coury and in 2013 and 2014 to Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik, following termination of employment without cause or resignation for good reason (as determined pursuant to the applicable employment agreement), 100% of options become vested and vested options will remain exercisable for one year following termination. Vesting conditions applicable to the SARs granted under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program are described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. All of Mr. Kormans unvested options vested on July 1, 2014 in connection with his retirement from the Company, as provided in his award agreements. |
(2) | Vesting of all of the RSUs listed above accelerated as of January 29, 2015 in connection with the Abbott Transaction as described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. In accordance with their terms, all of these awards granted in 2012 would have vested upon a change in control or upon the executive officers retirement from the Company. In the case of awards granted in 2013 and 2014, awards would vest upon either the executive officers retirement from the Company or upon (i) a change in control and (ii) an involuntary termination without cause or a voluntary resignation for good reason occurs within two years following the change in control, unless otherwise specifically determined by the Compensation Committee. In the case of Mr. Courys awards and awards granted in 2013 and 2014 to Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik, the awards would also vest upon the executives termination without cause or resignation for good reason as defined in the applicable employment agreement. Mr. Kormans RSUs were forfeited on July 1, 2014 in connection with his retirement from the Company, as provided in his award agreements, and are therefore not reflected in the table above. |
(3) | The market value of RSUs and PRSUs was calculated using the closing price of the Companys common stock as of December 31, 2014. |
(4) | All of the PRSUs listed above accelerated as of January 29, 2015 in connection with the Abbott Transaction as described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Vesting of such PRSUs was based on the target number of shares subject to such PRSUs, except for the PRSUs granted in 2012, which were vested based on actual performance achieved since the performance period for such PRSUs ended on December 31, 2013. Mr. Kormans PRSUs were forfeited on July 1, 2014 in connection with his retirement from the Company, as provided in his award agreements, and are therefore not reflected in the table above. |

Restoration Plan
The Restoration Plan permits employees (including certain NEOs) who earn compensation in excess of the limits imposed by Section 401(a)(17) of the Code to (i) defer a portion of base salary and bonus compensation, (ii) be credited with a Company matching contribution in respect of deferrals under the Restoration Plan, and (iii) be credited with Company non-elective contributions (to the extent so made by the Company), in each case, to the extent that participants otherwise would be able to defer or be credited with such amounts, as applicable, under the Companys Profit Sharing 401(k) Plan if not for the limits on contributions and deferrals imposed by the Code. Company matching contributions immediately vest and Company profit-sharing contributions are subject to an initial three-year vesting period. Upon a change in control (as defined in the Restoration Plan), a participant will become 100% vested in any
45
unvested portion of his or her matching contributions or non-elective contributions. In connection with the Abbott Transaction, the Board amended the Restoration Plan to provide that the transaction would not be considered a change in control. Distributions of a participants vested account balance will be made in a lump sum within sixty days following a participants separation from service (or such later date as may be required by Section 409A of the Code).
Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Coury are no longer eligible to receive matching contributions under the Restoration Plan.
Retirement Benefit Agreements
In December 2004, the Company entered into an RBA with Mr. Coury. This RBA has been modified from time to time (as defined above, the Amended RBA). Additionally, the Company entered into RBAs with Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik in August 2009, and Mr. Sheehan in February 2011 (together with Mr. Courys Amended RBA, the RBAs). The information below is based upon the RBAs in effect as of December 31, 2014.
Pursuant to the Amended RBA, upon any termination of employment, Mr. Coury is entitled to receive a lump sum retirement benefit (the Retirement Benefit) equal to the present value of a monthly retirement benefit equal to 50% of the sum of his base salary as of December 31, 2011, and the average of the three highest annual cash bonuses paid to Mr. Coury during the five years preceding January 1, 2012, for a period of 15 years, discounted to Mr. Courys current age from 55. As a result of his years of service, Mr. Coury has fully vested in his Retirement Benefit. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended RBA, Mr. Coury is eligible to receive a supplemental retirement benefit equal to 20% of the sum of his base salary as of December 31, 2011 and the average of the three highest annual cash bonuses paid to Mr. Coury in the five years preceding January 1, 2012 (the Supplemental Retirement Benefit). The Supplemental Retirement Benefit vested 50% on January 1, 2013 and 50% on January 1, 2014. In connection with the extension of his employment agreement in 2014, Mr. Courys RBA was amended to fix the discount rate used for purposes of the RBA, so that the Companys obligation would no longer be subject to variations in the appropriate discount rate.
Pursuant to the RBAs of Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Malik, upon retirement following completion of ten or more years of service, each executive would be entitled to receive a lump sum retirement benefit equal to the present value of an annual payment of 20%, 15%, and 15%, respectively, of the sum of their base salary and target annual bonus on the date of retirement, for a period of 15 years, discounted to the executives current age from age 55. Having completed ten years of continuous service as an executive, Ms. Bresch is now vested 100% in her retirement benefit. Mr. Sheehan completed his fifth year of service with the Company on April 1, 2015, and has vested 50% in his retirement benefit, with an additional 10% vesting each year of service for up to five additional years. However, the values presented in this 10-K/A with respect to Mr. Sheehans RBA were determined as of December 31, 2014 and therefore were determined assuming Mr. Sheehan was only 40% vested in his retirement benefit. Mr. Malik has completed eight years of continuous service with the Company, and has vested 80% in his retirement benefit, with an additional 10% of the retirement benefit vesting after each year of service for up to two additional years.
Upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, each executive would become fully vested in his or her retirement benefit and would be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to the net present value of the retirement benefit, further discounted to the executives current age from age 55, as soon as practicable following any subsequent termination of employment. If an executive dies while employed by the Company, the executives beneficiary would be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to the greater of (i) two times the executives current base salary or (ii) the net present value of the retirement benefit. As described above, each of the relevant executive officers executed a one-time waiver providing that the Abbott Transaction did not constitute a change in control for purposes of the RBAs.
Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Maliks RBAs provide that if the executives employment is terminated without cause or for good reason, the executive will receive additional years of service credit
46
corresponding to the applicable severance multiplier under his or her Transition and Succession Agreement.
Each of the RBAs provides that the executive is prohibited for one year following termination from engaging in activities that are competitive with the Companys activities, provided that this provision will have no effect if, after the occurrence of a change in control, the Company refuses, fails, or disputes any payments to be made to the executive under the RBA, whether or not the executive actually receives payment under the RBA.
Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Maliks RBAs provide that during the five-year period following termination, except for any termination occurring following a change in control, the Company may request that the executive provide consulting services for the Company, which services will be reasonable in scope, duration, and frequency, and not to exceed 20 hours per month. The hourly rate for such consulting services will be determined by the parties at the time, but may not be less than $500 per hour, payable monthly. The executive would also be entitled to reimbursement of all out-of pocket expenses incurred in the course of providing these services.
Information concerning the estimated value of benefits under the RBAs assuming retirement as of December 31, 2014 is at Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control on page 48 of this Form 10-K/A.
In 2007, the Company established a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for Mr. Malik, who was then living outside the United States and therefore unable to participate in the Companys 401(k) plan. Although the Company no longer contributes to the account, the plan account will be distributed to Mr. Malik upon the Companys termination of the plan, the termination of Mr. Maliks employment, or other qualifying distribution events, such as his retirement, disability, or death.
Employment Agreements
The Company was party to employment agreements with each of the NEOs in 2014. The information below is based on the employment agreements in effect as of December 31, 2014. For a further description of the employment agreements with Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Malik and Coury, see Extension of Senior Executive Employment Agreements on page 23 of this Form 10-K/A.
Mr. Coury. The Company and Mr. Coury entered into an employment agreement in February 2014, effective January 1, 2014. Mr. Courys employment agreement has a term of five years (through January 1, 2019, unless earlier terminated or extended in accordance with its terms). Pursuant to his employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014, Mr. Coury is entitled to an annual base salary of $1,350,000 and is eligible for an annual performance-based target bonus of at least 125% of base salary which will be payable upon the achievement of the performance targets. Mr. Coury is also entitled to participate in long-term incentive and equity plans of the Company at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and to receive employee benefits and other fringe benefits no less favorable than the benefits to which he was entitled under his original employment agreement. Throughout the term of the agreement and for a period of two years following Mr. Courys termination of employment for any reason, he may not engage in activities that are competitive with the Companys activities and may not solicit the Companys customers or employees.
For a description of the termination provisions of Mr. Courys employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014, please see below, at Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control on page 48 of this Form 10-K/A.
Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, Mauro, and Korman. The Company entered into amended and restated employment agreements with Ms. Bresch and Mr. Malik in February 2014, effective January 1, 2014, entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Sheehan in July 2013, and entered into amended and restated employment agreements with Messrs. Mauro and Korman in October 2011, effective January 1, 2012. In early 2015, the Company took action to extend the
47
term of Mr. Mauros employment agreement. Since Mr. Korman retired from the Company effective July 1, 2014, his amended and restated employment agreement is no longer in effect. Each of these agreements provides for the payment of a minimum base salary of $1,200,000, $650,000, $900,000, and $460,000, with respect to Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, and Mauro, respectively, subject to reduction in the event of similar decreases among the Companys executives in the case of Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Malik, and Mauro. Mr. Kormans agreement provided for the payment of a minimum base salary of $575,000, subject to reduction in the event of similar decreases among the Companys executives. Each employment agreement also provides for, and in the case of Mr. Korman, provided for, the executives eligibility to receive a discretionary bonus and fringe benefits of employment as are customarily provided to senior executives of the Company.
The agreements provide for a target bonus equal to 150%, 100%, 115%, and 75% of base salary with respect to Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, and Mauro, respectively. Mr. Kormans agreement provided for a target bonus equal to 100% of his base salary. Each of Ms. Bresch, Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, and Mauro agreements also provide that throughout the term of the agreement and for a period of one year following the executives termination of employment for any reason, the executive may not engage in activities that are competitive with the Companys activities and may not solicit the Companys customers or employees. Mr. Kormans employment agreement also contained such restrictions, which Mr. Korman will remain subject to until July 1, 2015, the first anniversary of his retirement from the Company.
For a description of the termination provisions under these agreements, please see immediately below, at Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
The following discussion summarizes the termination and change in control-related provisions of the employment agreements, RBAs, and transition and succession agreements entered into between the Company and the applicable NEO and in effect as of December 31, 2014, and termination of employment and change in control provisions under the 2003 Plan. Since Mr. Korman retired from the Company effective July 1, 2014, and was therefore not subject to any such agreement as of December 31, 2014, his former agreements are not described below. The treatment of the One-Time Performance-Based Awards upon a termination of employment is described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. In the discussions that follow, all amounts payable upon termination or change in control that include the value of equity, include the value, if any, attributable to the One-Time Performance-Based Awards.
Termination Under Employment Agreements
Mr. Coury. Under Mr. Courys employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014, if Mr. Courys employment were terminated for any reason, he will be entitled to a payment equal to three times his annual cash compensation (defined as the sum of Mr. Courys base salary as in effect on December 31, 2011, plus the higher of (i) the average annual bonus awarded to Mr. Coury with respect to 2009, 2010, and 2011 or (ii) Mr. Courys 2011 target bonus), and a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance, which would be reduced by Company-provided death benefits in the event of the termination of Mr. Courys employment due to death. Mr. Coury will also be provided with continued health and other benefits and aircraft usage for three years following any such termination of employment, and will be eligible to participate in the Companys Supplemental Health Insurance Plan. In addition, if Mr. Courys employment is terminated without cause or for good reason (each as defined under his employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014), all equity-based awards and Mr. Courys $20 million performance incentive award will fully vest.

Such payments and benefits would be reduced by Company-provided death or disability benefits in the event of termination of Ms. Breschs employment due to death or disability. Pursuant to the applicable individual award agreements, if Ms. Breschs employment is terminated without cause or for good reason, all outstanding equity-based awards granted to Ms. Bresch beginning in 2013 would have fully vested. Pursuant to the terms of Ms. Breschs employment agreement in effect of December 31, 2014, if the term of employment were not extended or renewed, she would have been entitled to the same payments and benefits as if she had been terminated without cause. If the Company had offered to renew Ms. Breschs term of employment on substantially similar terms and conditions, and Ms. Bresch rejected such offer, she would have been entitled to a lump sum payment equal to 12 months continuation of base salary and health benefits at the Companys cost.
If Ms. Breschs employment had been terminated on December 31, 2014, by the Company without cause or by Ms. Bresch for good reason prior to a change in control, she would have been entitled to cash severance and other benefits under her employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014 and equity awards having an estimated aggregate value of $19,631,167.

Pursuant to the applicable individual award agreements, if Mr. Malik were to resign for good reason or be terminated by the Company without cause, all outstanding equity-based awards granted to Mr. Malik beginning in 2013 would have fully vested. Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Maliks employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014, if the terms of employment were not extended or renewed, he would have been entitled to the same payments and benefits as if he had been terminated without cause. If the Company had offered to renew Mr. Maliks term of employment on substantially similar terms and conditions, and Mr. Malik rejected such offer, he would have been entitled to a lump sum payment equal to 12 months continuation of base salary and health benefits at the Companys cost.

Sheehan and Malik had terminated for any reason on December 31, 2014, each of the executives would have been entitled to lump sum payments having the following estimated values under their respective RBAs: (i) in the case of termination by the Company for cause or by the executive without good reason, as defined in the executives employment agreement, $5,658,345; $0; and $2,714,191, respectively; (ii) in the case of a termination by the Company without cause or by the executive for good reason, $5,658,345; $1,638,950; and $3,392,739, respectively; and (iii) in the case of termination because of death or disability, $5,658,345; $2,329,114; and $3,392,739, respectively. If a change in control had occurred on December 31, 2014, each of Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Malik would be entitled upon a simultaneous termination of employment to the benefit the executive would have been entitled to under her or his RBA in the case of termination because of death or disability.
50
As discussed above, in connection with the Abbott Transaction, the executive officers executed a one-time waiver of accelerated vesting of the benefits under their RBAs.
Termination Under Transition and Succession Agreements (Change in Control)
Mr. Coury. Pursuant to Mr. Courys prior employment agreement, Mr. Coury waived his right to the cash severance payments and continuation benefits under his transition and succession agreement dated December 2, 2004, as amended. This waiver does not apply to Mr. Courys right under the transition and succession agreement to receive from the Company a gross-up payment for any excise tax on excess parachute payments and reimbursement of legal fees associated with good faith disputes regarding termination of employment, in seeking benefits under the transition and succession agreement.
Pursuant to Mr. Courys employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014, if a change in control had occurred on December 31, 2014, and Mr. Courys employment had been terminated without cause or for good reason on the same date, then Mr. Coury would not have been entitled to payment of cash severance or continuation benefits under his transition and succession agreement. However, under his employment agreement in effect as of December 31, 2014, he would be entitled to the cash severance and other benefits described above under Employment Agreements. Under his transition and succession agreement, Mr. Coury would also have been entitled to a gross-up payment for any excise tax on excess parachute payments estimated at $22,903,413.
Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, and Mauro. The transition and succession agreements with the other NEOs provide that if the executives employment is terminated other than for cause (including death or disability) or if the executive terminates his or her employment for good reason, in each case prior to a change in control under certain circumstances (such as in the event the termination arose in connection with the change in control) or within two years following the occurrence of a change in control, or, under certain circumstances, for any reason within 90 days following the first anniversary of a change in control, the executive would become entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment, equal to, in the case of Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan and Malik, the higher of (i) the compensation and benefits payable under his or her employment agreement as if the change in control were deemed to be a termination without cause under the employment agreement and (ii) a lump sum severance payment in an amount equal to three times the sum of base salary and highest bonus paid to the executive under the employment agreement or the transition and succession agreement, or, in the case of Mr. Mauro, a lump-sum severance payment in an amount equal to the greater of three times the sum of base salary and the higher cash bonus paid to Mr. Mauro by the Company as reflected on Mr. Mauros W-2 in (a) the tax year immediately preceding the year in which the date of termination occurs or (b) the year in which the change in control occurs. Such payments and benefits would be reduced by Company-provided death or disability benefits in the event of the executives termination due to death or disability. Each executive would additionally be entitled to continuation of health and insurance benefits for a period of three years. The transition and succession agreements for each of these NEOs also provide for a gross-up payment for any excise tax on excess parachute payments.
If a change in control had occurred on December 31, 2014, and the employment of each of Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, and Mauro had been terminated on the same date under circumstances entitling them to payments under their transition and succession agreements, the executives would have been entitled to cash severance and other benefits (which includes the vesting of equity awards and the valuation of other perquisites and are in addition to the Retirement Benefit which they would receive as described above) having an estimated aggregate value as follows: for Ms. Bresch, $39,436,694; for Mr. Sheehan, $15,352,034; for Mr. Malik, $26,001,592; and for Mr. Mauro, $10,956,285. Ms. Bresch and Messrs. Sheehan, Malik, and Mauro would also have been entitled to a gross-up payment for excise taxes estimated at $12,299,039, $5,928,376, $7,661,828, and $3,991,561, respectively.
2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended
The 2003 Plan, as amended, provides that, unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, at the time of a change in control (as defined in the 2003 Plan), (i) each stock option and SAR outstanding
51
will become immediately and fully exercisable, (ii) all restrictions applicable to awards of restricted stock and RSUs will terminate in full, (iii) all performance awards (with certain limited exceptions) will become fully payable at the maximum level, and (iv) all other stock-based awards will become fully vested and payable.
With respect to annual equity awards granted in 2014, except for awards granted under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program, the applicable award agreements contain double trigger vesting provisions that provide for accelerated vesting only if (i) there has been a change in control and (ii) an involuntary termination without cause or a voluntary resignation for good reason occurs within two years following the change in control, unless otherwise specifically determined by the Compensation Committee.
A description of the material terms that apply to stock options, RSUs, PRSUS, and SARs held by the NEOs may be found in the footnotes to the table above entitled Outstanding Equity Awards at the End of 2014. If a change in control had occurred on December 31, 2014, the intrinsic value of vesting equity-based awards held by the NEOs would have equaled approximately: for Mr. Coury, $27,565,293; for Ms. Bresch, $24,829,824; for Mr. Sheehan $8,140,314; for Mr. Malik, $16,206,815; and for Mr. Mauro, $4,883,740.
As discussed above, in connection with the Abbott Transaction, the vesting of all equity-based awards (other than awards granted under the One-Time Special Performance-Based Incentive Program, ISOs and stock options granted in 2014) held by the executive officers (other than Mr. Korman, who retired in July 2014) was accelerated.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of the members of the Compensation Committee during 2014 (Ms. Cameron, Dr. Maroon, Mr. Parrish, and Mr. Piatt) was an officer or employee of the Company, and no executive officer of the Company served on the compensation committee or board of any company that employed any member of the Compensation Committee or the Board.
ITEM 12. | Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters |
Certain information concerning our executive officers is contained in the discussion entitled Equity Compensation Plan Information in Item 12 of Part III of the Original Filing.

(1) | Abbott and its subsidiaries that own ordinary shares of Mylan N.V. are subject to the terms of the Shareholder Agreement (the Shareholder Agreement), dated February 27, 2015, by and among Mylan N.V., Abbott, Laboratoires Fournier S.A.S. (Abbott France), Abbott Established Products Holdings (Gibraltar) Limited (Abbott Gibraltar), and Abbott Investments Luxembourg S.à.r.l. (Abbott Luxembourg and, together with Abbott France and Abbott Gibraltar, the Abbott Subsidiaries). The Shareholder Agreement will terminate when Abbott no longer beneficially owns any of the ordinary shares of Mylan N.V. issued to it in connection with the Abbott Transaction. So long as Abbott beneficially owns at least five percent of the ordinary shares of Mylan N.V., Abbott is required to vote each Mylan N.V. voting security (a) in favor of all those persons nominated and recommended to serve as directors of Mylan N.V.s Board of Directors or any applicable committee thereof and (b) with respect to any other action, proposal, or matter to be voted on by the shareholders of Mylan N.V. (including through action by written consent), in accordance with the recommendation of the Mylan N.V. Board of Directors or any applicable committee thereof. However, Abbott is free to vote at its discretion in connection with any proposal submitted for a vote of the Mylan N.V. shareholders in respect of (a) the issuance of equity securities in connection with any merger, consolidation, or business combination of Mylan N.V., (b) any merger, consolidation, or business combination of Mylan N.V., or (c) the sale of all or substantially all the assets of Mylan N.V., except where such proposal has not been approved or recommended by the Mylan N.V. Board of Directors, in which event Abbott must vote against the proposal. Further information on the Shareholder Agreement can be found in the Registration Statement. |
(2) | Based on Schedule 13D/A filed by Abbott and the Abbott Subsidiaries with the SEC on April 10, 2015 (the Schedule 13D/A), Abbott has sole voting power over 0 shares, shared voting power over 69,750,000 shares, sole dispositive power over 0 shares, and shared dispositive power over 69,750,000 shares; Abbott France has sole voting power, shared voting power, sole dispositive power and shared dispositive power over 0 shares; Abbott Gibraltar has sole voting power over 0 shares, shared voting |

According to Item 4 of the Schedule 13D/A filed by Abbott on April 6, 2015, on March 31, 2015, the Abbott Subsidiaries entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the Underwriting Agreement) with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Goldman Sachs & Co., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein, and Mylan N.V. relating to an underwritten public resale offering by the Abbott Subsidiaries of an aggregate of 35,000,000 ordinary shares of Mylan N.V. (the Offering). The ordinary shares were sold at a price of $56.89125 per ordinary share. This amount represents the $58.35 public offering price per ordinary share, less underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.45875 per ordinary share. The Offering was completed on April 6, 2015. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, Abbott Luxembourg, for no additional consideration, granted the representatives of the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 5,250,000 ordinary shares of Mylan N.V. from Abbott Luxembourg on the same terms. According to Item 4 of the Schedule 13D/A filed by Abbott on April 10, 2015, on April 7, 2015, the representatives of the Underwriters delivered notice of their exercise of the foregoing option in full.

ITEM 13. | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence |
The Board annually reviews certain relationships and related party transactions, with respect to Directors, as part of its assessment of each Directors independence. Based on a review of the transactions between the Company and its Directors and executive officers, their immediate family members, and their affiliated entities, the Company has determined that during 2014, it was a party to the following transactions in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any of the Companys Directors, executive officers, or greater than five percent shareholders, or any of their immediate family members or affiliates, have a direct or indirect material interest:
As previously disclosed, Mylan has engaged Coury Financial Group, LP (CFG), Coury Investment Advisors, Inc. (CIA), and Coury Consulting, L.P. (Coury Consulting), the principals of which are brothers of Robert J. Coury, Executive Chairman, to provide certain services to the Company. CFG, CIA, and Coury Consulting are in the business of providing strategic business consulting and corporate benefits advice and services, among others. Since approximately 1995, CFG and CIA have served as the broker in connection with several of the Companys employee benefit programs. In 2014, CFG and CIA received payments of approximately $575,000 for these services directly from the insurance carriers. Commencing January 1, 2015, the Company modified the arrangement with CFG and CIA to provide for a fixed base fee of $37,500 per month to be paid by the Company for a period of three years, corresponding to the term of agreements negotiated with certain benefit plan carriers and capping payments over that time period. However, where required by law, CFG and CIA will continue to receive commissions directly from certain other benefit plan carriers.
Since approximately 2000, Coury Consulting from time to time has been engaged to provide specialized consulting and advisory services to Mylan. Most recently, Mylan engaged Coury Consulting to provide consulting and advisory services with regard to Mylans Human Resources function as well as certain of the Companys compensation, benefits, and health care related programs. In 2014, the Company paid Coury Consulting $360,000 in fees, and the firm was eligible for an additional performance payment at the end of the then-current 15 month contract term that began on October 1, 2013; in 2015, the Company made a performance payment of $500,000 for that contract term based on, among other factors, exceptional performance and results. The Company amended the agreement with Coury Consulting effective January 1, 2015 at a rate of $40,000 per month for 12 months, with the possibility of another performance payment at the end of the term in the Companys discretion.
John Todd, son of C.B. Todd (a Director of Mylan until April 2014), earned approximately $187,000 in compensation (which includes income recognized from the exercise or vesting of previous years stock options and restricted stock unit bonuses, respectively) for employment by the Companys
54
subsidiary, Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc., as a Senior Manager in 2014. John Todd has been employed by Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. since 1999.
As discussed in the Explanatory Note and Item 13 (Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners) of this Amendment, on February 27, 2015 the Abbott Transaction was completed pursuant to which Mylan N.V. issued 110,000,000 ordinary shares (worth approximately $6.31 billion) to various Abbott affiliates and pursuant to which Abbott became a holder of over 5% of Mylan N.Vs outstanding ordinary shares.
In 2013, the Board approved a related party transactions policy that establishes guidelines for reviewing and approving transactions involving any Director or certain executives in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $25,000; (2) the Company or an affiliate of the Company is a participant; and (3) any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest.
Director Independence
The Board has determined that Ms. Cameron, Judge Cindrich, Ms. Dillon, Mr. Dimick, Ms. Higgins, Mr. Leech, Dr. Maroon, Mr. Parrish, Mr. Piatt, and Dr. Vanderveen are independent Directors under the applicable NASDAQ listing standards. In making these determinations, the Board considered, with respect to: (1) Dr. Maroon, that his daughter has worked for Mylan during one or more of the past several years and (2) Mr. Piatt, that the Company has paid minimal membership costs for several employees and has sponsored events at a facility indirectly owned, in part, by Mr. Piatt. The Board determined that such transactions, relationships or arrangements do not interfere with the exercise of independent judgment by these directors in carrying out their responsibilities as a Director of the Company. In connection with the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Board had determined that Mr. Todd was an independent Director under the applicable NASDAQ listing standards. In making that determination, the Board considered that Mr. Todd had a relative who worked for Mylan as well as his past employment and receipt of accrued benefits and determined that such transactions, relationships or arrangements did not interfere with the exercise of independent judgment by Mr. Todd in carrying out his responsibilities as Director of the Company. Mr. Todd did not stand for re-election at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Mr. Coury, Ms. Bresch, and Mr. Malik are not independent Directors due to their current service as the Companys Executive Chairman, CEO, and President, respectively.
ITEM 14. | Principal Accounting Fees and Services |
Deloitte & Touche LLP served as Mylans independent registered public accounting firm during 2014 and 2013, and no relationship exists other than the usual relationship between independent registered public accounting firm and client. Details about the nature of the services provided by, and the fees the Company paid to, Deloitte & Touche LLP for such services during 2014 and 2013 are set forth below.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy
The Audit Committee has a policy regarding pre-approval of audit, audit-related, tax, and other services that the independent registered public accounting firm may perform for the Company. Under the policy, the Audit Committee must pre-approve on an individual basis any requests for audit, audit-related, tax, and other services not covered by certain services that are pre-approved annually by the Audit Committee. The policy also prohibits the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm for non-audit related financial information systems design and implementation, for certain other services considered to have an impact on independence, and for all services prohibited by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. All services performed by Deloitte & Touche LLP during 2014 and 2013 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with its policy.
