Executive shall report to the CEO, the Board, the Board of Directors of the Company or any committee of any such board. Executive shall devote substantially all of his working time and efforts to the business and affairs of the Company, and Executive shall not serve on any corporate, industry or civic boards or committees without the prior consent of the Board; provided

Executive shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in obtaining such insurance by submitting to reasonable physical examinations, by supplying all information reasonably required by any insurance carrier, and by executing all necessary documents reasonably required by any insurance carrier. Executive shall incur no financial obligation by executing any required document, and shall have no interest in any such policy.

(h) Reimbursement for Relocation Expenses. Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred during the Term in connection with Executive’s relocation from Princeton, New Jersey to Long Island, New York, which reasonable and necessary expenses shall be subject to the terms of the Company’s relocation policy, attached hereto as Exhibit E.

Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company or Executive, as applicable, without any breach of this Agreement under the following circumstances:

(a) Circumstances.

(i) Death. Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon Executive’s death.

Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or by Executive under this Section 3 (other than termination pursuant to paragraph (a)(i)) shall be communicated by a written notice to the other party hereto (i) indicating the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) setting forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, and (iii) specifying a Date of Termination which, if submitted by Executive, shall be at least thirty (30) days following the date of such notice (a “Notice of Termination”); provided, however, that in the event that Executive delivers a Notice of Termination to the Company, the Company may, in its sole discretion, change the Date of Termination to any date that occurs following the date of Company’s receipt of such Notice of Termination and is prior to the date specified in such Notice of Termination. A Notice of Termination submitted by the Company may provide for a Date of Termination on the date Executive receives the Notice of Termination, or any date thereafter elected by the Company in its sole discretion, but not more than thirty (30) days after the giving of the notice without the Executive’s prior written consent. The failure by either Party hereunder to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause or Good Reason (as applicable) shall not waive any right of such Party or preclude such Party from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing such Party’s rights hereunder.

(c) Company Obligations upon Termination (including due to death and Disability). Upon termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to any of the circumstances listed in Section 3, Executive (or Executive’s estate) shall be entitled to receive the sum of: (i) the portion of Executive’s Annual Base Salary earned through the Date of Termination, but not yet paid to Executive within thirty (30) days of termination; (ii) any accrued vacation owed to Executive under the Company’s vacation policy within thirty (30) days of termination; (iii) any expenses owed to Executive pursuant to Section 2(g) in accordance with such section; (iv) except in the case of a termination by the Company for Cause, the bonus earned for any completed fiscal year at the time it would otherwise have been paid if Executive continued to be employed (including as to any deferrals); and (v) any amount accrued and arising from Executive’s participation in, or benefits accrued under any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements, which amounts shall be payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of such employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements (collectively, the “Company Arrangements”). Except as otherwise expressly required by law (e.g., COBRA) or as specifically provided herein, all of Executive’s rights to salary, severance, benefits, bonuses and other amounts hereunder (if any) shall cease upon the termination of Executive’s employment hereunder. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason, Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy with regard to the nonequity compensation for

services shall be to receive the severance payments and benefits described in this Section 3(c) or Section 4, as applicable. The foregoing shall not limit any of Executive’s rights with regard to equity (which shall be controlled by the relevant plan and grants) or any rights to indemnification, advancement of legal fees, and coverage under directors and officers liability insurance.

(d) Deemed Resignation. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all offices and directorships, if any, then held with the Company or any of its Affiliates.

If Executive’s employment shall terminate without Cause pursuant to Section 3(a)(iv), pursuant to Section 3(a)(v) due to Executive’s resignation for Good Reason, or pursuant to Section 3(a)(vii) due to non-extension of the Term by the Company, then, subject to Executive signing on or before the 50th day following Executive’s Separation from Service (as defined below), and not revoking, a release of claims in the form attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement, and Executive’s continued compliance with Sections 5 and 6 up to the date of any such payment, subject to Section 11(l) hereof, Executive shall receive, in addition to payments and benefits set forth in Section 3(c), (1) an amount in cash equal to the Annual Base Salary of Executive as of the Date of Termination, payable in the form of salary continuation payments in regular installments over the twelve (12) month period following the date of Executive’s Date of Termination in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, and (2) provided that any termination of Executive’s employment occurs on or after April 1st of the fiscal year of employment termination, a pro rata bonus for such fiscal year of employment termination based on the terms of the management bonus plan for such fiscal year and paid when it would otherwise have been paid if the Executive continued to be employed (including as to any deferrals) but in no event shall it be paid later than March 15th of the fiscal year immediately following such fiscal year of employment termination.

(c) Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of Sections 5 through 9 and Section 11 will survive the termination of Executive’s employment and the expiration or termination of the Term.

5. Competition. Executive acknowledges that the Company will provide Executive with access to its Confidential Information (as defined below). In consideration for the rights provided to Executive as set forth in this Agreement and the Company’s provision of Confidential Information to Executive, the Company and Executive agree to the following provisions against

unfair competition, which Executive acknowledges represent a fair balance of the Company’s rights to protect its business and Executive’s right to pursue employment:

(a) Executive shall not, at any time during the Restriction Period, directly or indirectly engage in, have any equity interest in or manage or operate any person, firm, corporation, partnership or business (whether as director, officer, employee, agent, representative, partner, security holder, consultant or otherwise) that engages in any business which competes with any part of any material portion of the Business (as defined below) of the Company. Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding equity interest in any entity that is publicly traded, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such entity. The parties acknowledge that retail outlet companies shall not be deemed competitive with the Company unless their primary business is selling products competitive with those of the Company. “Materiality” for purposes of this paragraph will be measured only at the time of Executive’s Date of Termination, provided that, if it is intended at such time for the Company to (i) acquire another entity, such target entity shall also be considered in the determination, or (ii) to enter into any other business, such other business shall also be considered in the determination so long as the Company has taken any substantial steps in furtherance of such business during the Term.

(b) Executive shall not, at any time during the Restriction Period, except in the good faith performance of his duties with the Company, directly or indirectly, recruit or otherwise solicit or induce any employee, customer, other than a customer with regard to matters that are not competitive under Section 5(a), or supplier of the Company (i) to terminate its employment or arrangement with the Company, or (ii) to otherwise change its relationship with the Company. Executive shall not, at any time during the Restriction Period, directly or indirectly, either for Executive or for any other person or entity, (x) solicit any employee of the Company to terminate his or her employment with the Company, (y) employ any such individual during his or her employment with the Company and for a period of six months after such individual terminates his or her employment with the Company or (z) solicit any vendor or business affiliate of the Company to cease to do business with the Company. The foregoing shall not be violated by general advertising not specifically targeted at the prohibited group or by providing upon request of an employee or a former employee a reference to any entity with which Executive is not affiliated so long as Executive is not initially identifying the individual to said entity.

(c) In the event the terms of this Section 5 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, it will be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable, over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable, or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such action.

(d) As used in this Section 5, (i) the term “Company” shall include the Parent, the Company and the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, (ii) the term “Business” shall mean the business of the Company and shall include, without limitation, the manufacturing, marketing and/or retailing of vitamins, minerals and health supplements throughout the world as such business may be expanded or altered by the Company during the Term, provided, however, that

the term “Business” shall not include any business of the Company materially entered into after the Executive’s termination of employment so long as the Company has not taken any substantial steps in furtherance of such business during the Term; and (iii) the term “Restriction Period” shall mean the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Date of Termination.

(e) Each of the Parties hereto agrees that at no time during Executive’s employment by the Company or at any time within the eighteen-month period thereafter shall such Party (which, in the case of the Company and Parent, shall mean their officers and the members of the Board and Board of Directors of the Company) make, or cause or assist any other person to make, with intent to damage, any public statement or other public communication which impugns or attacks, or is otherwise critical, in any material respect, of, the reputation, business or character of the other party (including, in the case of Parent, any of its directors or officers). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the Company, Parent, Executive or any other person from (i) responding to incorrect, disparaging or derogatory public statements to the extent necessary to correct or refute such public statements, or (ii) making any truthful statement (A) to the extent necessary in connection with any litigation, arbitration or mediation involving this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the enforcement of this Agreement, (B) to the extent required by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction or authority to order or require such person to disclose or make accessible such information, or (C) that is a normal comparative statement in the context of advertising, promotion or solicitation of customers, without reference to Executive’s prior relationship with the Company or Parent.

(f) Executive represents that Executive’s employment by the Company does not and will not breach any agreement with any former employer, including any non-compete agreement or any agreement to keep in confidence or refrain from using information acquired by Executive prior to Executive’s employment by the Company. During Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive agrees that Executive will not violate any non-solicitation agreements Executive entered into with any former employer or improperly make use of, or disclose, any information or trade secrets of any former employer or other third party, nor will Executive bring onto the premises of the Company or use any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or other third party, in violation of any lawful agreements with that former employer or third party. The Company represents that it will not require or request Executive to breach any agreement with any former employer as to non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality or restrictions of similar nature that it is made aware of by Executive.

6. Nondisclosure of Proprietary Information.

(a) Except in connection with the good faith performance of Executive’s duties hereunder or pursuant to Sections 6(c) and (e), Executive shall, in perpetuity, maintain in confidence and shall not directly, indirectly or otherwise, use, disseminate, disclose or publish, or use for Executive’s benefit or the benefit of any person, firm, corporation or other entity any confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of or relating to the Company (including, without limitation, business plans, business strategies and methods, acquisition targets, intellectual property in the form of patents, trademarks and copyrights and applications therefor, ideas, inventions, works, discoveries, improvements, information, documents, formulae,

practices, processes, methods, developments, source code, modifications, technology, techniques, data, programs, other know-how or materials, owned, developed or possessed by the Company, whether in tangible or intangible form, information with respect to the Company’s operations, processes, products, inventions, business practices, finances, principals, vendors, suppliers, customers, potential customers, marketing methods, costs, prices, contractual relationships, regulatory status, prospects and compensation paid to employees or other terms of employment) (collectively, the “Confidential Information”), or deliver to any person, firm, corporation or other entity any document, record, notebook, computer program or similar repository of or containing any such Confidential Information. The Parties hereby stipulate and agree that, as between them, any item of Confidential Information is important, material and confidential and affects the successful conduct of the businesses of the Company (and any successor or assignee of the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information that has been published in a form generally available to the public prior to the date Executive proposes to disclose or use such information, provided, that such publishing of the Confidential Information shall not have resulted from Executive directly or indirectly breaching Executive’s obligations under this Section 6(a) or any other similar provision by which Executive is bound. For the purposes of the previous sentence, Confidential Information will not be deemed to have been published or otherwise disclosed merely because individual portions of the information have been separately published, but only if all material features comprising such information have been published in combination.

(b) Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all correspondence, drawings, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports, programs, plans, proposals, financial documents, or any other documents or property of the Company or concerning the Company’s customers, business plans, marketing strategies, products, property or processes. Executive may retain and utilize his rolodex and similar address books (hard copy or electronic) containing only contact information.

(c) Executive may respond to a lawful and valid subpoena or other legal process but (i) shall give the Company prompt notice thereof, (ii) upon request of the Company, shall make available to the Company and its counsel the documents and other information sought, as much in advance of the due date thereof as reasonably possible, and (iii) shall reasonably assist such counsel at the Company’s expense in resisting or otherwise responding to such process.

(d) As used in this Section 6 and Section 7, the term “Company” shall include the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and the Parent.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Executive from (i) disclosing information and documents when required by law, subpoena or court order (subject to the requirements of Section 6(c) above), (ii) disclosing information and documents to Executive’s attorney or tax adviser for the purpose of securing legal or tax advice or to governmental taxing authorities, (iii) disclosing Executive’s post-employment restrictions in this Agreement or elsewhere in confidence to any potential new employer, or (iv) retaining, at any time, Executive’s personal correspondence, Executive’s personal contacts and documents related to Executive’s own personal benefits, entitlements and obligations.

(f) No equity plan or grant or other arrangement shall have any restrictive covenants or forfeiture provisions applicable to Executive that relate to the same type of limitations that are covered by Sections 5 and 6 hereof that are any broader than the related provisions in Sections 5 and 6.

7. Inventions.

All rights to discoveries, inventions, improvements and innovations (including all data and records pertaining thereto) related to the business of the Company, whether or not patentable, copyrightable, registrable as a trademark, or reduced to writing, that Executive may discover, invent or originate during the Term, either alone or with others and whether or not during working hours or by the use of the facilities of the Company (“Inventions”), shall be the exclusive property of the Company. Executive shall promptly disclose all Inventions to the Company, shall execute at the request of the Company, and at its expense, any assignments or other documents the Company may deem reasonably necessary to protect or perfect its rights therein, and shall reasonably assist the Company, upon reasonable request and at the Company’s expense, in obtaining, defending and enforcing the Company’s rights therein. Executive hereby appoints the Company as Executive’s attorney-in-fact to execute on Executive’s behalf any assignments or other documents reasonably deemed necessary by the Company to protect or perfect its rights to any Inventions.

8. Injunctive Relief.

It is recognized and acknowledged by Executive that a breach of the covenants contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7 will cause irreparable damage to the Company and its goodwill, the exact amount of which will be difficult or impossible to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7, in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief.

9. Assignment and Successors.

The Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any successor to all or substantially all of the business or the assets of the Company (by merger or otherwise), and may assign or encumber this Agreement and its rights hereunder as security for indebtedness of the Company and its Affiliates, provided that the assignee delivers to Executive a written assumption of the obligations hereunder. The Company’s rights and obligations may not otherwise be assigned hereunder. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, Parent, Executive and their respective successors, assigns, personnel and legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees, as applicable. None of Executive’s rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred by Executive, other than Executive’s rights to payments hereunder, which may be transferred only by will or operation of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall be entitled, to the extent permitted under applicable law and applicable Company Arrangements, to select and change a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive compensation hereunder following Executive’s death by giving written notice thereof to the Company.

10. Certain Definitions.

(a) Affiliate. “Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such Person where “control” shall have the meaning given such term under Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; provided, that, with respect to the Company, “Affiliate” shall not include any Principal Stockholder or any portfolio companies of the relevant Principal Stockholder.

(g) No Inconsistent Actions. The Parties hereto shall not voluntarily undertake or fail to undertake any action or course of action inconsistent with the provisions or essential intent of this Agreement. Furthermore, it is the intent of the Parties hereto to act in a fair and reasonable manner with respect to the interpretation and application of the provisions of this Agreement.

(h) Construction. This Agreement shall be deemed drafted equally by all the Parties. Its language shall be construed as a whole and according to its fair meaning. Any presumption or principle that the language is to be construed against any Party shall not apply. The headings in this Agreement are only for convenience and are not intended to affect construction or interpretation. Any references to paragraphs, subparagraphs, sections or subsections are to those parts of this Agreement, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary. Also, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary, (a) the plural includes the singular and the singular includes the plural; (b) “and” and “or” are each used both conjunctively and disjunctively; (c) “any,” “all,” “each,” or “every” means “any and all,” and “each and every”; (d) “includes” and “including” are each “without limitation”; (e) “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other similar compounds of the word “here” refer to the entire Agreement and not to any particular paragraph, subparagraph, section or subsection; and (f) all pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural as the identity of the entities or persons referred to may require.

(i) Arbitration. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration, conducted before an arbitrator in New York, New York, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitration award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Company or Executive shall be entitled to seek a restraining order or

injunction in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent any continuation of any violation of the provisions of Section 5, 6 or 7 of the Agreement, as applicable, and the Company, Parent and Executive hereby consent that such restraining order or injunction may be granted without requiring the Company to post a bond. Only individuals who are (a) lawyers engaged full-time in the practice of law, as in-house counsel, as a judge or as a professor of law; and (b) on the AAA register of arbitrators shall be selected as an arbitrator. Within twenty (20) days of the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, the arbitrator shall prepare written findings of fact and conclusions of law.

(j) Enforcement. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the Term, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a portion of this Agreement; and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.

(k) Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement any federal, state, local or foreign withholding or other taxes or charges which the Company is required to withhold. The Company shall be entitled to rely on an opinion of counsel if any questions as to the amount or requirement of withholding shall arise.

(l) Section 409A.

(i) General. The intent of the Parties is that the payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”) and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith.

(ii) Separation from Service. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement that is designated under this Agreement as payable upon Executive’s termination of employment shall be payable only upon Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from Service”) and, except

as provided below, any such compensation or benefits shall not be paid, or, in the case of installments, shall not commence payment, until the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s Separation from Service. Any installment payments that would have been made to Executive during the sixty (60) day period immediately following Executive’s Separation from Service but for the preceding sentence shall be paid to Executive on the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s Separation from Service and the remaining payments shall be made as provided in this Agreement.

(iii) Specified Employee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is deemed by the Company at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such portion of Executive’s benefits shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the first business day following the expiration of the applicable Section 409A period, all payments deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive (or to Executive’s estate or beneficiaries), and any remaining payments due to Executive under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. Any tax gross up payment, within the meaning of Section 409A, provided for in this Agreement shall be made by the end of the Executive’s taxable year next following the Executive’s taxable year in which the Executive remits the related taxes, provided that, Executive provides the Company with a reimbursement request reasonably promptly following the date such tax is due.

(iv) Expense Reimbursements. To the extent that any reimbursements under this Agreement are subject to Section 409A, any such reimbursements payable to Executive shall be paid to Executive no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred; provided, that Executive submits Executive’s reimbursement request reasonably promptly following the date the expense is incurred, the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, during one taxable year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year; provided however, that the foregoing shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect. Executive’s right to reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(v) Installments. Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement, including without limitation any salary continuation payments that are payable on Company payroll dates, shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment as permitted under Section 409A. To the extent any deferred compensation is intended to comply with and be subject to Section 409A (as opposed to any exception thereto), the Company may accelerate any such

deferred compensation as long as such acceleration would not result in additional tax or interest pursuant to Section 409A and as long as such acceleration is permitted by Section 409A. The decision as to when to make any payment within any specified time period shall solely be that of the Company.

(m) Indemnification. Executive shall receive indemnification protection pursuant to the indemnification agreements attached hereto as Exhibits C and D.

(n) No Mitigation; No Offset. The Executive shall not be required to seek other employment or otherwise mitigate the amount of any payments to be made by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. The payments provided pursuant to this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer after the Date of Termination or otherwise. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the Executive or others.

(o) Joint and Several Liability. The Company and the Parent shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations of each hereunder.

12. Section 280G

(a) So long as the Company is described in Section 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii)(I) of the Code, if any payment or benefit (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), to the Executive or for the Executive’s benefit paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in connection with, or arising out of, the Executive’s employment with the Company or a change in ownership or effective control of the Company or of a substantial portion of its assets, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then, to the extent, if any, Executive elects to waive the right to receive such payments or benefits unless shareholder approval is obtained in accordance with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prepare and deliver to its stockholders the disclosure required by Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code with respect to the Payments and to obtain the approval of the Company’s stockholders in accordance with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulation codified at 26 C.F.R. §1.280G-1.

(b) In the event that (i) the Executive is entitled to receive any payments or benefits, whether payable, distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, that constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) the net after tax amount of such payments, after the Executive has paid all taxes due thereon (including, without limitation, taxes due under Section 4999 of the Code) is less than the net after-tax amount of all such payments and benefits otherwise due to the Executive in the aggregate, if such aggregate payments and benefits were reduced to an amount equal to 2.99 times the Executive’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code), then the aggregate amount of such payments and benefits payable to Executive shall be reduced to an amount that will equal 2.99 times the Executive’s base amount. To the extent such aggregate parachute payment amounts are required to be so reduced, the parachute payment

amounts due to the Executive (but no non -parachute payment amounts) shall be reduced in the following order: (i) payments and benefits due under Section 4 of this Agreement shall be reduced (if necessary, to zero) with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity fully valued (or only reduced by a present value factor) for purpose of the calculation to be made under Section 280G calculation of the Code for purposes of this Section 12 (the “280G Calculation”) in reverse order of when payable; and (iii) payments and benefits due in respect of any options or stock appreciation rights with regard to Common Stock or equity securities valued under the 280G Calculation based on time of vesting shall be reduced in an order that is most beneficial to the Executive.

(c) The determinations to be made with respect to this Section 12 shall be made by a certified public accounting firm designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive. The Company shall be responsible for all charges of the Accountant.

(d) In the event that the Internal Revenue Service or court ultimately makes a determination that the excess parachute payments or the base amount is an amount other than as determined initially, an appropriate adjustment shall be made with regard to Section 12(a) or (b) above, as applicable to reflect the final determination and the resulting impact.

(e) The provisions of Sections 12(b), (c) and (d) shall override provisions as to cutback below the 2.99 level in any equity plan or grant or any other arrangement.

13. Employee Acknowledgement.

Executive acknowledges that Executive has read and understands this Agreement, is fully aware of its legal effect, has not acted in reliance upon any representations or promises made by the Company other than those contained in writing herein, and has entered into this Agreement freely based on Executive’s own judgment.

(i) If, within the 12-month period following the date of a Change in Control, the Optionee becomes entitled to receive severance payments pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Employment Agreement and Optionee executes and does not revoke any release agreement that is required under the Employment Agreement, any and all unvested Time Options shall become fully vested.

(ii) Any and all unvested Time Options shall become fully vested at the effective time of the first Liquidity Event.

(c) Discretionary Vesting. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the vesting of any outstanding unvested portion of the Time Options that does not otherwise vest pursuant to this Section 2.1.

Section 2.2 Vesting and Exercisability of Performance Options.

(a) Performance Based Vesting. If, as of the effective date of the first Liquidity Event, the Administrator determines that the Internal Rate of Return is between 20% and 25%, then, so long as the Optionee remains continuously in service as a Service Provider through the date of such Liquidity Event, the portion of the Performance Options which shall be entitled to vest, at the effective time of such Liquidity Event, shall be as follows:

(c) The Optionee shall make appropriate arrangements for the payment to the Company (or its Subsidiaries, as applicable) of all amounts which the Company (or its Subsidiary, as applicable) is required to withhold under applicable law in connection with the exercise of the Option. With the consent of the Administrator and subject to any applicable legal conditions or restrictions, the Company shall, upon the Optionee’s request, withhold from the Shares otherwise issuable to the Optionee upon the exercise of the Option (or any portion thereof) a number of whole Shares having a Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the minimum of tax required to be withheld by law (or such lower amount as may be necessary to avoid adverse accounting). Any adverse consequences to the Optionee arising in connection with the Share withholding procedure set forth in the preceding sentence shall be the sole responsibility of the Optionee.

ARTICLE III.
OTHER PROVISIONS

Section 3.1 Optionee Representation; Not a Contract of Service. The Optionee hereby represents that the Optionee’s execution of this Agreement and participation in the Plan is voluntary and that the Optionee has in no way been induced to enter into this Agreement in exchange for or as a requirement of the expectation of service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue as a Service Provider, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company or its Subsidiaries, which are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge the Optionee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause, except pursuant to an employment or consulting agreement executed by and between the Company and the Optionee and approved by the Board.

Section 3.2 Shares Subject to Plan and Stockholders Agreement; Restrictions on the Transfer of Options and Common Stock. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 3.2, the Optionee acknowledges that this Option and any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option are subject to the terms of the Plan and the Stockholders Agreement including, without limitation, the terms and conditions set forth on Appendix B attached hereto and including, without limitation, the restrictions set forth in Sections 5.6 and 5.7 of the Plan.

A-6

of such sections will automatically vest at the effective time of such Corporate Event and the Optionee shall be provided with no less than fifteen (15) days advance notice that the applicable portion of the Option may be exercised at the effective time of such Corporate Event, (ii) where the Plan states that the Administrator may act in its “sole discretion,” the Administrator agrees that it shall act in good faith to the extent any such action will adversely affect the Option and the Administrator shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that its actions do not result in adverse tax consequences to the Optionee under Section 409A of the Code; (iii) Section 8.4 of the Plan shall not apply to Optionee; and (iv) all disputes regarding this Option shall be subject to the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 11(i) of the Employment Agreement and shall be subject to a de novo standard of review, unless the dispute relates to a matter that requires Administrator discretion (e.g., equitable adjustment of outstanding Options pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan, determination of Fair Market Value, etc.), in which case the decision shall be subject to an arbitrary and capricious standard of review.

Section 3.3 Construction. This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 3.4 Conformity to Securities Laws. The Optionee acknowledges that the Plan is intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any and all regulations and rules promulgated thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation Rule 16b-3. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan, the Stockholders Agreement and this Agreement shall be administered, and the Option is granted and may be exercised, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

Section 3.5 Amendment, Suspension and Termination. The Option may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Administrator or the Board, provided that, except as provided by Section 8.1 of the Plan, neither the amendment, modification, suspension nor termination of this Agreement (including the Grant Notice) shall, without the consent of the Optionee, impair any rights or obligations under the Option.

Section 3.6 Data Privacy Consent. As a condition of the Option grant, the Optionee explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this paragraph by and among, as applicable, the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Optionee’s participation in the Plan. The Optionee understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates hold certain personal information about the Optionee, including the Optionee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all restricted stock or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Optionee’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan (the “Data”). The Optionee further understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan, and that the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates may each further transfer the Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.

APPENDIX B TO STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

Additional Terms and Conditions

1. Tag-Along Rights.

(a) In the event that, at any time prior to the date on which the Company becomes a Publicly Listed Company, the Carlyle Shareholders propose to Transfer shares of Common Stock to a Third Party Purchaser (other than Transfers of shares to any affiliate of any Carlyle Shareholders, to any partner, member or shareholder of any Carlyle Shareholder upon liquidation of such Carlyle Shareholder or to any officer, employee, consultant, strategic investor or advisor of the Company or its affiliates), in a single Transfer or a series of related Transfers, then Optionee shall have the right (the “Tag-Along Right”) to require that the proposed Third Party Purchaser purchase from Optionee up to the number of whole Restricted Shares (including any Restricted Shares issuable in respect of all Vested Options held by Optionee whether or not exercised and including any options that vest as a result of the consummation of the Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser) equal to the number derived by multiplying (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock that the proposed Third Party Purchaser has agreed or committed to purchase, by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Restricted Shares (including any Restricted Shares issuable in respect of all Vested Options held by Optionee whether or not exercised and including any options that vest as a result of the consummation of the Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser) owned by Optionee, and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned by all Carlyle Shareholders and all other holders of Common Stock who have exercised a Tag-Along Right similar to the rights granted to Optionee in this Section 1 (the “Other Holders”) (including any Restricted Shares issuable in respect of all Vested Options held by Optionee and the Other Holders whether or not exercised and including any options that vest as a result of the consummation of the Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser); provided, that, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the ratio of Restricted Shares to Vested Options that may be sold by Optionee pursuant to the Tag-Along Right shall be equal to the ratio of Restricted Shares to Vested Options held by Optionee. The intent of this computation is to accord to Optionee the right to sell the same percentage of his or her holdings of Common Stock as the Carlyle Shareholders are entitled to sell in such a transaction, with such percentage being applied equally to the number of Restricted Shares and the number of Vested Options held by Optionee and the Other Holders. Any Restricted Shares purchased from Optionee pursuant to this Section 1 shall be purchased at the same price per share of Common Stock and upon the same terms and conditions as such proposed Transfer by the selling Carlyle Shareholder(s); provided that the Carlyle Shareholders or their Affiliates may be granted rights to participate on the board of directors of any successor or acquiror of the Company or any governance rights with respect thereto that are not given to Optionee. As used herein, “Publicly Listed Company” shall mean that the Company or its Successor (i) is required to file periodic reports pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and (ii) the Common Stock is listed on one or more National Securities Exchanges (within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) or is quoted on NASDAQ or a successor quotation system.

(b) The Carlyle Shareholder(s) shall notify Optionee in writing in the event such Carlyle Shareholder(s) propose to make a Transfer or series of related Transfers giving rise to the Tag-Along Right at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which such Carlyle Shareholder(s) expect to consummate such Transfer (the “Sale Notice”), which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock which the Third Party Purchaser intends to purchase in such Transfer. The Tag-Along Right may be exercised by Optionee by delivery of a written notice to the Carlyle Shareholders (the “Tag-Along Notice”) within ten (10) days following receipt of the Sale Notice from such Carlyle Shareholder(s). The Tag-Along Notice shall state the number of Restricted Shares and Vested Options that Optionee propose to include in such Transfer to the proposed Third Party Purchaser (not to exceed the number as determined above). In the event that the proposed Third Party Purchaser does not purchase

A-11

the specified number of Restricted Shares and Vested Options from Optionee on the same terms and conditions as specified in the Sale Notice, then the Carlyle Shareholder(s) shall not be permitted to sell any shares of Common Stock to the proposed Third Party Purchaser unless the Carlyle Shareholder(s) purchase from Optionee such specified number of Restricted Shares and Vested Options on the same terms and conditions as specified in such Sale Notice.

(c) At the closing of the Transfer to any Third Party Purchaser pursuant to this Section 1, the Third Party Purchaser shall remit to Optionee the consideration for the total sales price of the Common Stock and/or Vested Options held by Optionee sold pursuant hereto minus the aggregate exercise price of any Vested Options being Transferred by Optionee to the Third Party Purchaser, against delivery by Optionee of certificates for such Common Stock, duly endorsed for Transfer or with duly executed stock powers, and an instrument evidencing the transfer or the cancellation of the Vested Options subject to the Tag-Along Right reasonably requested by the Company, and the compliance by Optionee with any other conditions to closing generally applicable to the Carlyle Shareholder(s) and all other holders of Common Stock selling shares in such transaction. To the extent required by the terms and conditions generally applicable to the Carlyle Shareholder(s) and all other holders of Common Stock selling shares in such transaction, any portion of the consideration payable to Optionee may be escrowed or otherwise held back.

(d) The terms of Section 4 of the Stockholders Agreement shall apply to any transaction or series of related transactions that give rise to a Tag-Along Right and shall be incorporated by reference herein.

(e) Notwithstanding the forgoing in no event shall the Third Party Terms provide that (i) any shareholder (including any Management Shareholder and any Carlyle Shareholder) will be liable for the breach of any representation and warranty made by any other shareholder with respect to the title to the securities being sold by such other shareholder or any other representations and warranties to the extent they relate solely to any other shareholder and not the Company or its subsidiaries (e.g. due authorization, enforceability, no conflicts), the liability for which shall be several and not joint or (ii) any shareholder shall have any liability in excess of the aggregate consideration received by such shareholder in the transaction or series of related transactions giving rise to the Bring-Along Right.

2. Piggyback Registration Rights.

(a) The Company will promptly notify Optionee in writing (a “Registration Notice”) in the event that the Company proposes to effect a registration of shares of Common Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (a “Proposed Registration”) in a proposed public offering registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 in which any Carlyle Shareholder is selling any shares of Common Stock (a “Public Offering”). If, within 15 days of the receipt by Optionee of the Registration Notice (the “Registration Deadline”), the Company receives a written request from Optionee (a “Registration Request”) to register Registrable Shares (as defined below) held by Optionee (which request shall be irrevocable unless otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by Optionee and the Company), the Registrable Shares subject to the Registration Request shall, subject to subsection (b) of this Section 2, be included in the Proposed Registration and sold as part of such offering as provided in this Section 2. Any Registrable Shares included in such Public Offering in accordance with this Section 2 shall not be subject to Section 1 of the Stockholders Agreement and, upon consummation of the Public Offering shall no longer be Restricted Shares subject to the Stockholders Agreement or this Letter Agreement. For purposes hereof, “Registrable Shares” shall mean Restricted Shares of Common Stock held by Optionee or a transferee (including, shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any Vested Options) other than Restricted Shares that (i) were sold to Optionee or Optionee’s transferee pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) were sold in a transaction exempt from the

A-12

registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof (including transactions under Rule 144, or a successor thereto, promulgated under the Securities Act) so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the consummation of such sale, or (iii) after termination of Optionee’s employment with the Company, that can be sold within ninety (90) days in the manner described in clause (ii) above.

(b) The maximum number of Registrable Shares which will be registered pursuant to a timely Registration Request will be the product of the Registration Fraction (as defined below) and the number of Restricted Shares (including any Restricted Shares issuable in respect of all Vested Options held by Optionee whether or not exercised and including any options that vest as a result of the consummation of the Public Offering) held by Optionee plus the number of Registrable Shares which were excluded in prior underwritings pursuant to the first proviso hereafter (and not thereafter sold in a subsequent offering as a result of this catch-up provision); provided, however, in the event that the lead underwriter with respect to such Proposed Registration determines in good faith that the inclusion of such Registrable Shares by Optionee in the Public Offering will adversely effect the success of such Public Offering, the Company may by written notice to Optionee exclude from such Proposed Registrations some or all of the Registrable Shares and further provided that if such adverse effect is based only on the number of securities being offered by all participants in the offering (and not the previous proviso), the reduction of Optionee’s Registrable Shares to be registered shall be proportional to the reduction on the Registrable Shares of the Carlyle Shareholders being reduced. For purposes hereof, the “Registration Fraction” with respect to a Public Offering is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Carlyle Shareholders which are registered in such Public Offering, and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Carlyle Shareholders. Accordingly, if no shares of Common Stock owned by the Carlyle Shareholders are included in the Proposed Registration or the Public Offering, the Company will not be required to include any of Optionee’s shares in the Proposed Registration or the Public Offering.

(c) Upon delivering a Registration Request, Optionee will, if requested by the Company, execute and deliver a custody agreement and power of attorney in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to the Registrable Shares to be registered pursuant to this Section 2.

(d) Notwithstanding, the foregoing, Optionee will not be entitled to include any Registrable Shares in any Proposed Registration, unless Optionee agrees to enter into an underwriters agreement and lock-up requested by the lead underwriter(s) in connection with such Proposed Registration.

(e) In the event that the Company enters into any agreement with the Carlyle Shareholder(s) pursuant to which the Company and the Carlyle Shareholder(s) agree to indemnify each other with respect any information included in the registration statement with respect to any Public Offering, the Company shall offer to enter into an agreement with Optionee that provides indemnification to and from him or her to the same extent as the Carlyle Shareholder(s). The Company represents and warrants that it has not entered into any such agreement as of the date hereof. In no event shall Optionee be required to pay any expenses in connection with any Public Offering in which he or she participates except to the extent the Carlyle Shareholder(s) participating in such Public Offering are required to pay such expenses and in no event shall Optionee be required to bear more than his or her pro rata share of such expenses (based upon the number of shares sold in such Public Offering).

(f) This Section 2 and Section 5 of the Stockholders Agreement shall terminate at such time as Optionee ceases to have any Registrable Shares or unexercised options to acquire Common Stock that could become Registrable Shares upon exercise thereof. Section 5 of the Stockholders

A-13

Agreement shall also terminate with respect to any Public Offering that is consummated more than 90 days after the Termination of Employment.

3. Determination of Fair Market Value.

(a) If Optionee disagrees with the determination of Fair Market Value by the Board of Directors with respect to Optionee’s Restricted Shares or Vested Options for the purposes of Section 2 of the Stockholders Agreement, then Optionee shall, within ten (10) business days of receiving notice of such determination, provide written notice thereof to the Company. In the event any such notice of disagreement is timely provided, Optionee and the Board of Directors shall negotiate in good faith for a period of fifteen (15) business days (or such longer period as Optionee may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the determination. If Optionee and the Board of Directors are unable to resolve such disagreements during such period, then the determination of Fair Market Value shall be made by a nationally recognized investment bank or other appraiser (the “Appraiser”) reasonably acceptable to both Optionee and the Company.

(b) In determining the Fair Market Value (i) the Appraiser will give due regard to the then consolidated assets, liabilities, contingencies, earnings and prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries and any other factors deemed relevant by such Appraiser, using accepted valuation practices, (ii) such Appraiser will assume that all securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company (other than those the Appraiser determines in good faith are likely never to be converted because of their exercise or conversion price) have been converted, exchanged or exercised immediately prior to the valuation date and (iii) no minority discount or discount for lack of marketability shall be applied to the value of any Common Stock.

(c) The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, (x) cooperate with the Appraiser in connection with such appraisal and (y) provide the Appraiser and its representatives with access to all of the Company’s records, financial data and employees and representatives in order to enable the Appraiser to make its determination. The fees and expenses of such Appraiser shall be paid one-half by Optionee and one-half by the Company. The determination of such Appraiser shall be final, conclusive and binding on Optionee and the Company and, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 11(i) of Optionee’s employment agreement, dated as of the date hereof, shall not apply to such determination.

4. Amendments. The Company shall not, without Optionee’s prior written consent, amend the Stockholders Agreement (other than the joinder of other Management Stockholders as parties thereto) unless (i) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect Optionee’s rights thereunder and hereunder, or (ii) Optionee consents to such amendment in writing, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

5. Incorporation by Reference. Subsections (c), (d), (f), (g), (h), (k) and (m) of Section 7 of the Stockholders Agreement are incorporated by reference herein.

6. Miscellaneous. This Appendix B shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. Optionee may not assign the terms under this Appendix B or any of his or her rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company.

Section 4. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, and without limiting the rights of Indemnitee under any other provision hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to the extent that (i) Indemnitee is a party to (or a participant in) any Proceeding, (ii) the Company is not permitted by applicable law to indemnify Indemnitee with respect to any claim brought in such proceeding if such claim is asserted successfully against Indemnitee and (iii) Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise (including settlement thereof), as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, then the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Liabilities and Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter.

(b) to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of this Agreement that increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors.

C-4

Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding, and such advancement shall be made no later than ten (10) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any and all Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. The Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking providing that the Indemnitee undertakes to repay such advances if and to the extent that it is ultimately determined in a decision by a court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be taken that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

Section 8. Procedure for Notification and Defense of Claim.

(a) Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing of any Proceeding with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof. The written notification to the Company shall include a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding. To obtain indemnification and/or advancement of Expenses under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request therefor, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding. Any delay or failure by Indemnitee to notify the Company hereunder will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay or failure in so notifying the Company shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification or advancement of Expenses, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has made such a request.

(b) In the event Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification and/or advancement of Expenses with respect to any Proceeding, Indemnitee may, at Indemnitee’s option, (i) retain counsel selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to represent Indemnitee with respect to such Proceeding, at the sole expense of the Company, or (ii) have the Company assume the defense of Indemnitee in such Proceeding, in which case the Company shall assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel selected by the Company and approved by Indemnitee (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) within ten (10) days of the Company’s receipt of written notice of Indemnitee’s election to cause the Company to do so. If the Company is required to assume the defense of any such Proceeding, it shall engage legal counsel for such defense, and the Company shall be solely responsible for all fees and expenses of such legal counsel and otherwise of such defense. Such legal counsel may represent both Indemnitee and the Company (and/or any other party or parties entitled to be indemnified by the Company with respect to such matter) unless, in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel to Indemnitee, there is an actual or potential conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company (or any other such party or parties) or there are legal defenses available to Indemnitee that are not available to the Company (or any such other party or parties). Notwithstanding either party’s assumption of responsibility for defense of a Proceeding, each party shall have the right to engage separate counsel at its own expense. The party having responsibility for defense of a Proceeding shall provide the other party and its counsel with all copies of pleadings and material correspondence relating to the Proceeding. Indemnitee and the

C-5

Company shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of any Proceeding with respect to which indemnification is sought hereunder, regardless of whether the Company or Indemnitee assumes the defense thereof. Indemnitee may not settle or compromise any Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company may not, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, effect any settlement of any Proceeding against Indemnitee or which potentially or actually imposes any cost, liability, exposure or burden on Indemnitee.

Section 9. Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification.

(a) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 8(a), the Company shall advance all reasonable fees and expenses necessary to defend against a Claim pursuant to the undertaking set forth in Section 7 hereof. if any determination by the Company is required by applicable law with respect to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification, such determination shall be made (i) if Indemnitee shall request such determination be made by Independent Counsel, by Independent Counsel, and (ii) in all other circumstances, in any manner permitted by the DGCL, subject to Section 9(c). Any decision that a determination is required by law, and any such determination, shall be made within forty-five (45) days after receipt of Indemnitee’s written request for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. The Company will not deny any written request for indemnification hereunder by Indemnitee unless an adverse determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification described in this Section 9(a) has been made. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto. The Company shall be bound by and shall have no right to challenge a favorable determination of Indemnitee’s entitlements.

(b) In the event any determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, (i) the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Company within ten (10) days of the Submission Date (the cost of each such counsel to be paid by the Company), (ii) the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and (iii) Indemnitee may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company Indemnitee’s written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If a written objection is so made by Indemnitee, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court of competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is without merit. If no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to before the later of (i) thirty (30) days after the later of submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof (the “Submission Date”) and (ii) ten (10) days after the

C-6

final disposition of the Proceeding, each of the Company and Indemnitee shall select a law firm or member of a law firm meeting the qualifications to serve as Independent Counsel, and such law firms or members of law firms shall select the Independent Counsel. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 11(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding; provided that, in absence of any such determination with respect to such Proceeding, the Company shall pay Liabilities and advance Expenses with respect to such Proceeding the Company had determined the Indemnitee to be entitled to indemnification and advancement of Expenses with respect to such Proceeding.

Section 10. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.

(a) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 8(a) of this Agreement, and the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure of the Company (including by its directors or independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its directors or independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

(b) if the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 9 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefore, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional fifteen (15) days, if (i) the determination is to be made by Independent Counsel and Indemnitee objects to the Company’s selection of Independent Counsel and (ii) the Independent Counsel ultimately selected requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto.

(c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

C-7

(d) Effect of Settlement. To the greatest extent permitted by law, settlement of any Proceeding without any finding of responsibility, wrongdoing or guilt on the part of the Indemnitee with respect to claims asserted in such Proceeding shall constitute a conclusive determination that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to such Proceeding.

(e) Reliance as Safe Harbor. For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers, employees, boards (or committees thereof) of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel or other advisors (including financial advisors and accountants) for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert or adviser selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. The provisions of this Section 10(e) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

(f) Actions of Others. The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

Section 11. Remedies of Indemnitee.

(a) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 9(a) of this Agreement within forty-five (45) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 4 or 5 or the second to last sentence of Section 9(a) of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore, (v) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 2, 3 or 6 of this Agreement is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vi) in the event that the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other action or Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification and/or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at Indemnitee’s option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration.

(b) In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 9(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 11 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 11 the Company shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.

C-8

(c) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 9(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 11, absent a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

(d) The Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 11 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. It is the intent of the Company that the Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee hereunder. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, such Expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement, any other agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company as now or hereafter in effect, or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of Expenses or insurance recovery, as the case may be.

Section 12. Non-exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation.

(a) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws and/or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

(b) The Company hereby acknowledges that Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of Expenses and/or insurance provided by one or more Persons with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity). The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Company shall be the indemnitor of first resort with respect to any Proceeding, Expense, Liability or matter that is the subject of the Indemnity Obligations, (ii) the Company shall be primarily liable for all Indemnification Obligations and any indemnification afforded to Indemnitee in respect of any Proceeding, Expense, Liability or matter that is the subject of Indemnity Obligations, whether created by law, organizational or constituent documents, contract (including this Agreement) or otherwise, (iii) any obligation of any other Persons with whom or

C-9

which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) to indemnify Indemnitee and/or advance Expenses to lndemnitee in respect of any proceeding shall be secondary to the obligations of the Company hereunder, (iv) the Company shall be required to indemnify Indemnitee and advance Expenses to Indemnitee hereunder to the fullest extent provided herein without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, any Sponsor Entity) or insurer of any such Person and (v) the Company irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases (1) any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) from any claim of contribution, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification, or any other recovery of any kind in respect of amounts paid by the Company hereunder; and (2) any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Indemnitee against any Sponsor Entity (or former Sponsor Entity), whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Sponsor Entity (or former Sponsor Entity), directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right. In the event any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) or their insurers advances or extinguishes any liability or loss which is the subject of any Indemnity Obligation owed by the Company or payable under any insurance policy provided under this Agreement, the payor shall have a right of subrogation against the Company or its insurer or insurers for all amounts so paid which would otherwise be payable by the Company or its insurer or insurers under this Agreement. In no event will payment of an Indemnity Obligation of the Company under this Agreement by any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) or their insurers affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or shift primary liability for any Indemnity Obligation to any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity). Any indemnification and/or insurance or advancement of Expenses provided by any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) with respect to any liability arising as a result of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status or capacity as an officer or director of any Person is specifically in excess over any Indemnity Obligation of the Company or any valid and collectible insurance (including but not limited to any malpractice insurance or professional errors and omissions insurance) provided by the Company under this Agreement, and any obligation to provide indemnification and/or insurance or advance Expenses of any other Person with whom or which Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) shall be reduced by any amount that Indemnitee collects from the Company as an indemnification payment or advancement of Expenses pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise which such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, employee or agent under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.

(d) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall not be subrogated to and hereby waives any rights to be subrogated to any rights of recovery of Indemnitee,

C-10

including rights of indemnification provided to Indemnitee from any other person or entity with whom Indemnitee may be associated (including, without limitation, any Sponsor Entity) as well as any rights to contribution that might otherwise exist; provided, however, that the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of any such payment of all rights of recovery of Indemnitee under insurance policies of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any and all Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed.

Section 8. Procedure for Notification and Defense of Claim.

(b) In the event Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification and/or advancement of Expenses with respect to any Proceeding, Indemnitee may, at Indemnitee’s option, (i) retain counsel selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to represent Indemnitee with respect to such Proceeding, at the . sole expense of the Company, or (ii) have the Company assume the defense of Indemnitee in such Proceeding, in which case the Company shall assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel selected by the Company and approved by Indemnitee (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) within ten (10) days of the Company’s receipt of written notice of Indemnitee’s election to cause the Company to do so. If the Company is required to assume the defense of any such Proceeding, it shall engage legal counsel for such defense, and the Company shall be solely responsible for all fees and expenses of such legal counsel and otherwise of such defense. Such legal counsel may represent both Indemnitee and the Company (and/or any other party or parties entitled to be indemnified by the Company with respect to such matter) unless, in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel to Indemnitee, there is an actual or potential conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company (or any other such party or parties) or there are legal defenses available to Indemnitee that are not available to the Company (or any such other party or parties). Notwithstanding either party’s assumption of responsibility for

D-5

defense of a Proceeding, each party shall have the right to engage separate counsel at its own expense. The party having responsibility for defense of a Proceeding shall provide the other party and its counsel with all copies of pleadings and material correspondence relating to the Proceeding. Indemnitee and the Company shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of any Proceeding with respect to which indemnification is sought hereunder, regardless of whether the Company or Indemnitee assumes the defense thereof.

The Company may not, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, effect any settlement of any Proceeding against Indemnitee or which potentially or actually imposes any cost, liability, exposure or burden on Indemnitee.

Any costs or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. The Company will not deny any written request for indemnification hereunder by Indemnitee unless an adverse determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification described in this Section 9(a) has been made. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto. The Company shall be bound by and shall have no right to challenge a favorable determination of Indemnitee’s entitlements.

Relocation Policy for NBTY

Purpose

This policy is designed to facilitate the accomplishment of NBTY’s Mission by helping prospective and current associates support the Company’s goals and objectives most effectively by deploying their skills, talents and efforts where the Company believes such capabilities can have the most favorable impact.

This policy achieves that stated purpose by providing reasonable and market-competitive incentives to associates that will minimize or eliminate costs they might otherwise incur as a consequence of taking on the challenge of a new assignment in a different geographical location for their family.

************************************************************

NBTY Associate/Approved Executive Relocation Package

I. Eligibility

This program will be made available to any NBTY associate relocating at the Company’s request to a new worksite that is fifty (50) miles further from his or her current home than the current home is to the current office. For example, the associate now lives 5 miles from the current worksite so the new worksite must be at least 55 miles from the associates current home.

It may also be offered to newly hired NBTY associates who reside more than 50 miles from their initial, NBTY work-site and are approved for such consideration by the Company’s CEO or Sr. Vice President of Human Resources.

No relocation benefits will be paid to an associate reassigned to a different work location at his or her own request, when the Company is not asking or requiring the associate in question to transfer from his or her present work site.

II. Expenses Covered by the NBTY Associate/Approved Executive Relocation Package

1. Reimbursement of expenses incurred to professionally pack, ship and unpack furniture, household goods and other personal property, using a service supplier authorized by NBTY’s Vice-President of Purchasing. Arrangements for such action must be coordinated with the Company’s Human Resources Department and will require certification of sufficient insurance by each service supplier involved that would cover the full loss exposure associated with this course of action.

2. The Company will reimburse reasonable (e.g. “coach class”) travel and lodging expenses incurred by the associate and all members of his/her immediate family for the following trips:

E-1

a. Two (2) house hunting visits to the new location, involving no more than a combined total of seven (7) overnights in a hotel arranged by NBTY’s Travel Department, as well as reasonable meal expenses associated with each trip of this nature.

b. The final trip actually relocating the associate and his/her immediate family from his/her former residence to the area near his/her new work site assigned by the Company.

c. Additional house hunting visits to the new location or any more than seven (7) overnights during the course of all such visits will require approval from the Company’s Vice President of Human Resources, Sr. Vice President of Human Resources or CEO.

3. The Company will reimburse reasonable expenses incurred by the associate for temporary lodging arranged by the NBTY relocation vendor, as well as storage of personal property, through a period of up to sixty (60) days, as required. The nature of expenses covered by this consideration will parallel those approved by the Company for ordinary business travel.

In addition, the Company will reimburse reasonable expenses incurred by the associate for visits “back home” every other weekend during this transition period of temporary lodging.

Additional temporary lodging related expenses, such as for a duration beyond this sixty day limit, will require approval from the Company’s Vice President of Human Resources, Sr. Vice President of Human Resources or CEO.

4. Renters

a. Reimbursement of any clearly documented costs incurred by breaking a lease, as the result of a move initiated by the Company…but only to the extent of avoiding duplicate housing expense for that associate covering the same time period.

b. Reimbursement of any “Finders Fee” paid to a real estate broker or rental property agent. Expenses reimbursed under this category will be capped at $ 3,000.

5. Homeowners

a. Real Estate commissions paid on the sale of a home up to 4% of its sale price. Maximum reimbursement will be limited to $100,000.00. In addition, as with every other item in this policy, this consideration will be subject to the limits set forth in Paragraph V - Total Package Limitations.

b. Normal, non-recurring closing costs and legal fees incurred to sell a home in the area from which the associate is moving.

E-2

c. Mortgage application fees that are required as a minimum condition to secure a home loan. Loan origination fees (points) will not be reimbursed unless they are required as the minimal local standard to secure a loan.

d. Normal, non-recurring closing costs and legal fees incurred to purchase a home in the area to which the associate is now being assigned by the Company.

III. Exceptional Items

A fully taxable, lump-sum, gross payment equal to one (1) month’s base salary, to a maximum of $ 40,000. These funds may be used by the associate to facilitate and expedite his family’s relocation and unlike all other aspects of this program; payments made under this provision need not be supported by specific receipts but will, instead, be considered a “Miscellaneous Relocation Allowance” that will be issued within 30 days from the date when the associate establishes a permanent domicile in his/her new location.

IV. Extraordinary Payments

No reimbursements under this policy may be authorized for the purpose of covering any of the items listed below unless specifically authorized by the Company’s CEO or Sr. Vice President of Human Resources:

a. Losses incurred in the sale of a home (e.g. lump sums, such as “Equity Loss Reimbursement” or “Underwater Mortgage Buyout”

b. Additional monthly costs anticipated as the result of a shift from a lower cost-of-living area to a higher cost-of-living area (e.g. periodic “Housing Cost Differential”)

V. Total Package Value

In addition to the limitations outlined for various aspects of this policy, any package exceeding a potential gross value of $50,000 or 50% of the associate’s annual base salary (whichever is greater) shall require approval by the Company’s CEO or Sr. Vice President of Human Resources.

VI. Ineligible Considerations

a. No aspect of this policy may be applied to have the Company purchase or lease property owned by a current or prospective associate.

b. No aspect of this policy may be applied to cover optional “points” paid in order to secure a lower mortgage interest rate.

c. No aspect of this policy may be applied to cover items more properly considered a “Transfer of Assets”, such as “Oil in the tank”, “Pre-paid property insurance”, “Pre-paid Real Estate taxes”, “Advanced Escrow Accruals”, etc.

E-3

d. The Company will not take on the financial or logistical responsibility to relocate personal items of premium value, such as wine cellar contents, fine jewelry, coins that have a fair market value in excess of their face value, cash, securities, etc.

e. Relocation expenses incurred for moves that do not meet the requirement of 50 miles.

VII. Tax Considerations

a. All payments made in line with this policy will fully conform to all laws and regulations of the appropriate jurisdictions involved, as determined by the Tax Department and Payroll Departments of the Company.

b. All taxable payments made in line with this policy and approved by the designated, appropriate level of authority will be “grossed-up” once, in order to minimize the Federal, State/Provincial and Local tax liabilities imposed on the associate as a result of such payments. This gross up consideration does not apply to the exceptional items payment in III.

c. Any and all tax liability triggered by such “gross-up” payments will be the sole and exclusive responsibility of the associate in question.

VIII. In the event that the associate Voluntarily Quits or is Discharged for Cause within one (1) year from his/her date of hire by NBTY, all consideration provided by application of this policy will be repaid in full by the associate in accordance with the language of an Agreement drawn-up by the NBTY Legal Department, which the associate will execute as a necessary condition for his/her original receipt of this Relocation Package consideration.
