Allergan Golden Parachute
Allergan CEO Davis Pyott may have a very soft landing if the Activas
acquisition of Allergan is completed. Actavis announced that after the
merger was complete, it planned to replace most of Allergan's
executives. In Pyott's case,
if he were fired after the merger, he would receive $89 million in cash
and stock for equity rewards that have yet to vest, $9.91 million in
cash, and $2 million in accrued pension and health benefits, for a total
payout of over $100 million!
