(1) The Pool 1 Maximum Amount of $2,500,000,000 represents the maximum aggregate principal amount in respect of Pool 1 Notes that will be purchased in the Pool 1 Tender Offers. The Pool 2 Maximum Amount of $900,000,000 represents the maximum aggregate principal amount in respect of Pool 2 Notes that will be purchased in the Pool 2 Tender Offers. The Tender Caps can be increased or decreased at Teva’s sole discretion.

(2) Subject to the Total Maximum Amount, the Tender Caps and proration, the principal amount of each series of Notes that is purchased in each of the Offers will be determined in accordance with the applicable acceptance priority level (in numerical priority order) specified in this column.

(3) Excludes accrued and unpaid interest, which also will be paid.

(4) Includes the Early Tender Premium.

The Offers will expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on Wednesday, November 24, 2021, unless extended or earlier terminated (as it may be extended or earlier terminated, the “Expiration Time”). Tenders of Notes may be withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Tuesday, November 9, 2021, but may not be withdrawn thereafter, except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law. Holders of the Notes that are validly tendered and not withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Tuesday, November 9, 2021 (the “Early Tender Time”) and accepted for purchase will receive the applicable “Total Consideration,” which includes an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 or €30.00 per €1,000, as applicable, principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”). Holders of Notes who validly tender their Notes following the Early Tender Time, but at or prior to the Expiration Time, will receive the “Tender Offer Consideration,” namely the applicable Total Consideration minus the applicable Early Tender Premium.

Each Holder whose Notes are tendered and accepted for purchase will receive accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from, and including, the last applicable interest payment date up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date. Teva may, at Teva’s option, elect for the payment of the Total Consideration plus accrued and unpaid interest for Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase to be made following the Early Tender Time but before the Expiration Time (such date, the “Initial Settlement Date”). Teva expects to have an Initial Settlement Date, and assuming that the conditions to the Offers are satisfied or waived, such Initial Settlement Date may be as early as two business days after the Early Tender Time, or Friday, November 12, 2021. Payment of the Tender Offer Consideration plus accrued and unpaid interest for Notes that are validly tendered following the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase, and, if Teva does not elect to have an Initial Settlement Date, payment of the Total Consideration plus accrued and unpaid interest for Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase, will be made promptly following the Expiration Time (such date, the “Final Settlement Date” and, together with the Initial Settlement Date, each a “Settlement Date”). Assuming that the conditions to the Offers are satisfied or waived, Teva expects that the Final Settlement Date will be Monday, November 29, 2021, the second business day after the Expiration Time. No tenders submitted after the Expiration Time will be valid.

The purchase price for Dollar Notes and Euro Notes will be paid in U.S. Dollars and Euros, respectively. To determine whether the Total Maximum Amount and the Tender Caps (defined below) have been reached, we will convert the applicable purchase price payable or nominal amounts (as applicable) with respect to the Euro Notes validly tendered into U.S. Dollars using the applicable exchange rates, as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the Early Tender Time, as reported on the Bloomberg screen page “FXIP” under the heading “FX Rate vs. USD” (or, if such screen is unavailable, a generally recognized source for currency quotations selected by the Dealer Managers with quotes as of a time as close as reasonably possible to the aforementioned).

The amounts of each series of Notes that are purchased will be determined in accordance with the Acceptance Priority Levels specified in the table above and on the cover page of the Offer to Purchase (the “Acceptance Priority Level”), with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 6 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level, provided that we will only accept for purchase Notes with an aggregate purchase price (excluding Accrued Interest) up to the Total Maximum Amount. In addition, no more than $2,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Pool 1 Notes and no more than $900,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Pool 2 Notes will be purchased in the Offers (such aggregate principal amounts, the “Tender Caps”). The Total Maximum Amount and the Tender Caps may be increased or decreased by Teva in its sole discretion.

Subject to the Total Maximum Amount, Tender Caps and the proration arrangements applicable to the Offers, all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or before the Early Tender Time having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted before any Notes tendered at or before the Early Tender Time having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted in the Offers, and all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted before any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted in the Offers. However, even if the Offers are not fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Time, subject to the Total Maximum Amount and the Tender Caps, Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or before the Early Tender Time will be accepted for purchase in priority to other Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time even if such Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time have a higher Acceptance Priority Level than Notes tendered prior to the Early Tender Time.

Acceptances for tenders of Notes of a series may be subject to proration if (a) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series validly tendered and not validly withdrawn is greater than the applicable Tender Cap, or (b) the aggregate purchase price (exclusive of accrued and unpaid interest) for any relevant series of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn would cause the Total Maximum Amount to be exceeded. Furthermore, if the Offers are fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Time, Holders who validly tender Notes following the Early Tender Time will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase.

Teva’s obligation to accept for purchase and to pay for the Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set out in the Offer to Purchase, including the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Transaction. Teva reserves the right to (i) waive any and all conditions to an Offer with respect to one or more series of Notes; (ii) extend or terminate an Offer with respect to one or more series of Notes at any time; (iii) increase or decrease the Total Maximum Amount; (iv) increase or decrease the Tender Caps; or (v) otherwise amend an Offer with respect to one or more series of Notes in any respect, in each case, subject to applicable law and in accordance with the terms set forth in the Offer to Purchase.
