(4) For purposes of this Agreement, “Competitor” shall mean any Person which engages or is preparing to engage, in whole or in part, in the design, development, manufacture, marketing or sale of any products or services which compete directly with a product or service which, during the 12 months prior to the termination of this Agreement and your employment hereunder for any reason, the DRAXIS Group marketed or at the time of termination of this Agreement and your employment hereunder, is then preparing to market.

(5) For purpose of this Agreement, “Person” shall include individuals, partnerships, associations, trusts, unincorporated organizations and corporations.

(b) Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition

(1) You acknowledge that the pharmaceutical and over-the-counter drug industries are highly competitive businesses. You are a key executive of DRAXIS, and as a result of your senior position, you confirm that you have acquired extensive background in and knowledge of the DRAXIS Group’s business and the pharmaceutical and over-the-counter drug industries in which the DRAXIS Group operates. You further acknowledge that the DRAXIS Group develops and markets its products on a North American and European basis. More particularly, the DRAXIS Group develops products in Canada and in the eastern part of the United States comprising the states of Connecticut, Florida, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Vermont, Virginia, and West Virginia [hereinafter referred to as the “Territory”]. Accordingly, you agree that in the course of your employment with DRAXIS, and thereafter for a period of one year you shall not, without the prior written authorization of the Chairman of the Board whether as principal, as agent, or as an employee of, or in partnership, or association with any other Person, in any manner whatsoever directly or indirectly:

(i)		become employed by or associated or affiliated with any Competitor of the DRAXIS Group in the Territory in a function dealing with a product or service, which during the twelve-month period immediately prior to the termination of this Agreement and your employment hereunder, for any reason, competed directly with a product or service of the DRAXIS Group;
(ii)		seek to employ or encourage others to employ or otherwise engage employees, agents or subcontractors of the DRAXIS Group (who are employees, agents or subcontractors on the date this Agreement terminated) or seek to in any way disrupt their business relationship with the DRAXIS Group;
(iii)		obtain by any means whatsoever the business of any Person who at the time of the termination of this Agreement and your employment hereunder, was a customer of the DRAXIS Group, if to obtain such business may result in a reduction of that Person’s business with the DRAXIS Group;
(iv)		approach any Person who at the time of the termination of this Agreement and your employment hereunder was a customer of the DRAXIS Group with the intention of soliciting or enticing the business of that Person away from the DRAXIS Group.

(c) Reasonableness

You agree that the obligations set out in Sections 14(a) and (b) together with your other obligations under this Agreement are reasonably necessary for the protection of the DRAXIS Group’s proprietary and business interests and you expressly agree that:

(i)		the scope of each of the covenants set out in Sections 14(a) and (b) above are in all respects, and in particular, in respect of Territory, time and subject matter, necessary and reasonable;
(ii)		given your general knowledge and experience, the obligations contained in this Agreement will not preclude you from becoming gainfully employed with other employers who are not Competitors following termination of this Agreement and your employment hereunder for any reason;
(iii)		your agreement to Sections 14(a) and (b) is a key incentive to DRAXIS formalizing the current terms and conditions of your employment.

(d) Breach of Agreement

You also recognize that any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by you will result in material damage to the DRAXIS Group, although it may be difficult for the DRAXIS Group to establish the monetary value of such damage. You therefore agree that the DRAXIS Group shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedies available to it, in a court of appropriate jurisdiction in the event of any breach or threatened breach by you of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

D. a lump sum equal to three (3) times the prorated portion of the DRSP Amount to the Date of Termination if the Date of Termination is prior to December 31 (for example: if the Date of Termination is February 28^th, you would be entitled to the DRSP Amount owed for the previous year, if not already paid, and three (3) times the prorated portion of the DRSP Amount for the period of January 1^st to February 28^th);

Further, the payment referred to in Section 15(c) (1) (C) above, is inclusive of all statutory payments, including statutory termination and severance, which may be owed to you following termination.

The amounts paid to you pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to all required deductions.

For the purposes of this Agreement, a Change of Control shall be deemed to occur in the following circumstances.

In the event that at any date following the date of signature hereof:

(i) the acquisition by any persons acting jointly or in concert (as determined by the Securities Act (Ontario)), whether directly or indirectly, of voting securities of the Corporation which, together with all other voting securities of the Corporation held by such persons, constitute in the aggregate more than 20% of all outstanding voting securities of the Corporation;

If DRAXIS and you are unable to agree on the designation of a qualified medical doctor to make such determination, then each party shall designate a medical doctor who, together, shall agree upon a third qualified medical doctor to make such determination. The decision of the third medical doctor shall be binding on DRAXIS and you. You consent to submit to such examination as may be required by any such medical doctor or doctors.

If your employment ceases pursuant to this Section, you shall be entitled to receive a total amount equivalent to eighteen (18) months of your then current Base Salary, commencing on the date upon which the Notice of Cessation is delivered and payable in 36 regular payments equivalent to your regular semi-monthly Base Salary on the regular DRAXIS pay days.

period. Notwithstanding the cessation of your employment pursuant to this Section, you shall be entitled to retain and exercise, within a period of 6 months following the Notice of Cessation, all stock options which have vested or accrued during your employment with DRAXIS.

Unless the Board of Directors of DRAXIS otherwise determines, you shall return to DRAXIS all stock options granted to you during your employment with DRAXIS which have not vested as of the date you cease to be an employee of DRAXIS and/ or the DRAXIS Group.

(g) No Further Notice or Compensation

Upon termination of your employment under this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to any further grants of stock options nor shall you be entitled to any further participation in any other incentive plan of the DRAXIS Group other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement. For all purposes, “termination of your employment” and “termination date” shall be the final day of employment with DRAXIS, and shall not be deemed to include any period during which you may be entitled to statutory notice, statutory termination pay or any contractual or statutory notice period and in particular, shall not be deemed to include the notice period identified above.
