ARTICLE THREE — TERMINATION AND RESIGNATION

Involuntary Termination - Either By The Corporation Without Cause or By The Executive For Good Reason

3.01 If the Executive incurs an involuntary termination from employment with the Corporation on account of a termination by the Corporation without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, then, in addition to any benefits or compensation accrued, earned and due to the Executive but not yet paid as of the date that is designated by the Corporation or the Executive, as applicable, as the last day of the Executive’s employment or term of office with the Corporation (the “Termination Date”), the Executive will be eligible for the severance payments and benefits as described in this Section 3.01; provided that (i) the Executive continues to comply with the Restrictive Covenants (as defined below); and (ii) the Executive executes, and does not revoke, a written waiver and release of all claims, demands and causes of action against the Corporation and related parties in a form prescribed by the Corporation, as limited by Section 3.09 (“Release”):

(a) The Executive will be paid a lump sum severance payment within 60 days of the Executive’s Termination Date, equal to one (1) times the Executive’s base salary (calculated using the Executive’s highest annual base salary in the three years prior to the Executive’s Termination Date) plus one (1) times the Executive’s target level of annual incentive compensation for the year prior to the year in which the Executive’s Termination Date occurs;

(b) The Executive will be entitled to a pro-rated portion of the Executive’s target level of annual incentive compensation for the year in which the Executive’s Termination Date occurs, based on the number of months (rounded to the next highest number for a partial month) of the calendar year elapsed prior to the Executive’s Termination Date and calculated and paid in accordance with the terms of the Corporation’s Short Term Incentive Plan; and

(c) Until the earlier of (i) the end of the one (1) year period following the Executive’s Termination Date, or (ii) the date, or dates, the Executive is eligible to receive benefits under the same type of plan of a subsequent employer (the “Benefit Period”), the Corporation will pay to the Executive a monthly payment on the first payroll date of each month equal to the cost of continued medial and dental coverage for the Executive and the Executive’s covered

dependents under the medical and dental plans of the Corporation less the amount that the Executive would be required to contribute for medical and dental coverage if the Executive were an active employee. These payments will commence on the Corporation’s first payroll date after the Executive’s Termination Date and will continue until the end of the Benefit Period (but not longer than the Benefit Period).

Involuntary Termination By The Corporation For Cause Or Voluntary Resignation Without Good Reason

3.02 If the Executive is involuntarily terminated by the Corporation for Cause or the Executive voluntarily resigns from employment without Good Reason, then the Executive will forfeit the Executive’s right to receive any salary, Short Term Incentive Plan compensation, Equity Compensation Plan compensation or other compensation that has not been fully accrued at the time the Executive’s employment terminates; provided, however, that the Executive will be entitled to receive any benefits or compensation accrued, earned and due to the Executive but not yet paid as of the Executive’s Termination Date.

Death or Disability

3.03 The Executive’s employment will terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death. The Corporation may terminate the Executive’s employment if illness, disease, or physical or mental incapacity render the Executive generally incapable of performing the Executive’s duties or unfit to advance or represent the Corporation on a daily basis for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months and within such twelve (12) months, the Executive fails to produce to the Corporation a medical opinion indicating a reasonable time for the return of the Executive to the full-time assumption of the Executive’s past duties and responsibilities. Nothing herein is intended to circumvent or abridge the Corporation’s short-term disability policy or long-term disability plan. In the event of termination pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.03, the Executive or the Executive’s estate, as applicable, will be entitled to receive any salary, benefits or other amounts accrued, earned and due to the Executive but not yet paid as of the Executive’s Termination Date.

(a) carry on, be engaged in, take part in or be a party to any Competitive Activity, directly or indirectly; or

(b) consult, advise, render services to lend money, guarantee the debts or obligations of or permit the use of his name or any part thereof for any Competitive Activity.

For the purposes of this Section 4.02, a Competitive Activity shall be defined as any business: (i) that competes with or plans to actively compete with the business activities of the Corporation through, but not limited to, the formulation, clinical testing, registration, manufacturing or marketing of specialty pharmaceuticals and/or drug delivery technologies in the therapeutic categories on which the Corporation is focused, which include central nervous system disorders, pain management, cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, and any other

During the continuance of his employment, the Executive shall not (other than solely as a holder of not more than three per cent (3%) of the issued and outstanding voting shares of any public corporation or as a shareholder of the Corporation, without the written approval of the board of directors of the Corporation, directly or indirectly, either individually or in partnership or in conjunction with any person or persons, firm, association, syndicate, company or corporation as principal, agent, director, manager, servant, shareholder or in any other manner whatsoever) carry on or be engaged in or be concerned with or interested in any business or vocation whatsoever which would be reasonably judged to be a Competitive Activity or would impede the Executive in performing his duties as outlined herein.

The Executive may at any time, or from time to time, request the Corporation to advise the Executive in writing whether or not the Corporation considers a specified business to be Competitive Activity. Any such request shall be made by written notice to the Corporation that includes: (i) the name of the specific business unit for which the Executive proposes to provide services; (ii) the name or names of any parent companies of such business unit; (iii) a description of the specific services which the Executive proposes to perform for such business unit; (iv) a statement as to why the Executive believes that the performance of such services will not adversely affect the Corporation’s legitimate interests.

Injunctive Relief

4.05 The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the agreements and covenants in this Article Four are essential to protect the business and goodwill of the Corporation and that a breach by the Executive of the covenants in Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03 and 4.04 hereof could result in irreparable harm to the Corporation for which the Corporation could not be adequately compensated in damages and that, accordingly, the Corporation may have no adequate remedy at law if the Executive breaches such provisions. Consequently, if the Executive breaches any of such provisions, the Corporation shall have, in addition to and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to it under any law or in equity, the right to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach thereof and to have such provisions specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.

Assignment of IP

4.07 The Executive shall disclose to the Corporation any and all Intellectual Property (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) which the Executive may make solely, jointly, or in common with other employees during the term of the Executive’s employment within the Corporation and which relates to the business.

To the extent of any rights the Executive may have with respect to the Intellectual Property which are not assignable, including but not limited to moral rights, the Executive hereby waives same. The Executive will execute and deliver to the Corporation or its successors and assigns, such other and further assignments, instruments and documents as the Corporation from time to time reasonably may request for the purpose of establishing, evidencing,

and enforcing or defending its complete, exclusive, perpetual, and world-wide ownership of all rights, titles, and copyrights, in and to the Intellectual Property, and the Executive constitutes and appoints the Corporation as agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute and deliver such assignments, instruments, documents as Executive may fail to or refuse to execute and deliver, this power and agency being coupled with an interest and being irrevocable.

Each employee, officer and director is a reflection of Biovail, and as such, the activities and actions of every individual within Biovail must be undertaken in accordance with a high standard of ethics and integrity. As such, Biovail expects each employee, officer and director to comply with, and adhere to, these Standards of Business Conduct (the “Standards”).

1. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Employees, officers and directors of Biovail must avoid situations where their private interests could conflict with, or even appear to conflict with, the interests of Biovail and its stockholders.

Conflicts of interest arise when an individual’s position or responsibilities with Biovail present an opportunity for personal gain apart from the normal rewards of employment. They also arise when the private interests of an employee, officer or director are inconsistent with those of Biovail or create conflicting loyalties. Such conflicting loyalties can cause an employee, officer or director to give preference to private interests in situations where corporate responsibilities should come first. Employees, officers and directors must perform the responsibilities of their positions on the basis of what is in the best interests of Biovail and free from the influence of personal considerations and relationships.

In the event that any potential conflict of interest arises, the individual involved must immediately notify his or her immediate supervisor. If such individual is an officer or director of Biovail, the Executive Chairman (“Chairman”), Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the General Counsel, or in the absence of a General Counsel the Vice President, Associate General Counsel (“SLO”) of Biovail must also be immediately notified and no further action may be taken unless authorized in writing by the Chairman and/or the CEO.

While it is not possible to detail every situation where conflicts of interest may arise, the following policies cover the areas that have the greatest potential for conflict:

A. Trading in Biovail Securities and Use of Inside Information

There are numerous laws in Canada and the United States (federal, provincial and state laws), to regulate transactions in corporate securities (stocks and bonds) and the securities industry. Violation of these laws may lead to civil and criminal actions against the individual and Biovail.

i. Any employee, officer, director or other insider or anyone (family member, etc.) who knows of any material information (as defined below) about Biovail that has not been disclosed to the public (commonly known as “insider information”) may not engage in any transaction in Biovail’s securities until such information is disclosed to the public (whether or not there is a formal trading “black out” in place). This rule applies equally to transactions in securities of other companies. In addition, employees, officers and directors must not provide insider information to others (“tippees”) who may trade in either the securities of Biovail or the securities of other companies.

“Material information” is any information relating to the business and affairs of Biovail that would reasonably be expected to result in a change in the market price or value of Biovail’s securities. Generally speaking, material information is a matter to which an average prudent investor should be reasonably informed before a decision is made to buy or sell the security involved. Examples of such information would include annual or quarterly financial results; significant changes in management; significant shifts in operating or financial circumstances, such as major write-offs and changes in earnings projections; borrowing of a significant amount of funds; acquisitions of, or mergers with, other companies; significant new contracts or loss of business; and major new products, services or patents. This list provides examples only; many other matters may be considered material information.

Employees, officers, directors and other insiders who have questions that relate to the sale or purchase of a security under circumstances where these laws and regulations might apply should consult with the SLO, who may refer them to outside legal counsel.

ii. In addition to the prohibition against the use of “insider” information which applies to all employees, officers and directors, the various securities laws that apply in the jurisdiction and countries in which Biovail does business place definite restrictions on the manners in which employees, officers and directors of Biovail, and their family members, their associates, etc., may engage in transactions involving the securities of Biovail. Employees, officers and directors shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations that prohibit or restrict insider trading.

Whenever there is any doubt as to whether any transactions involving Biovail’s securities would violate securities laws, employees, officers and directors should consult the SLO of Biovail. Within the framework of the foregoing policies and laws, the final decision of each employee, officer or director, with respect to securities transactions, must be his or her own.

iii. Employees, officers, directors and other insiders shall maintain the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by Biovail or its customers (except where disclosure is authorized or legally mandated) and shall not, without proper authority, give or release to anyone not employed by Biovail, data or information of a confidential nature concerning Biovail. Disclosure of confidential information can be harmful to Biovail and could be the basis for legal action against Biovail and the individual disclosing the information. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or harmful to Biovail or its customers, if disclosed.

iv. Employees, officers, directors and other insiders shall not acquire any property, security or any business interest that they know Biovail has an interest in acquiring. Moreover, based on such advance information, employees, officers and directors shall not acquire any property, security or business interest for speculation or investment.

v. Employees, officers, directors and other insiders must follow Biovail policies regarding “Blackout Periods” when Biovail’s stock may not be traded. Such policies will be communicated by the SLO from time to time and must be adhered to by all employees, officers and directors.

B. Personal Financial Interest

Employees, officers and directors should avoid any outside financial interests that might influence decisions or actions they have been empowered to make on behalf of Biovail. An employee, officer or director performing duties in conformity with this policy shall not have a financial interest in, indebtedness to, or a personal contract or understanding with any concern with which he or she does business on behalf of Biovail.

i. Employees, officers or directors whose corporate duties bring them into business dealings with an organization in which they, or a member of their family, have a financial interest or to which they, or a member of their family, have any indebtedness, or a business employing a relative or close friend, must immediately notify their immediate supervisor. The employee, officer or director, in turn, cannot complete a transaction on behalf of Biovail with this organization unless properly authorized in writing from their supervisor after full disclosure of the relationship.

ii. An employee, officer or director may not perform work or services, outside the course of their normal employment by Biovail, for an organization doing or seeking to do business with Biovail without appropriate prior written approval of their supervisor or the Board of Directors. An employee, officer or director may rot be a director, officer, partner or consultant of an organization doing or seeking to do business with Biovail, nor may any of them permit their names to be used in any way indicating a business connection with such an organization, without appropriate prior written approval of their supervisor or the Board.

iii. An employee, officer or director shall not accept for himself or herself, or for the benefit of any relative or friend, any payments, loans, services, favors involving more than ordinary social amenity, or gifts of more than nominal value from any organization doing or seeking to do business with Biovail.

iv. The requirement of freedom from conflict of interest applies with equal force to the spouse, children and other close relatives of each employee, officer and director. This policy applies to all employees, officers and directors of Biovail with respect to all of the affairs of Biovail.

v. Employees, officers and directors shall not (a) take for themselves personally opportunities that are discovered through the use of corporate property, information or position; (b) use corporate property information, or position for personal gain; (c) compete with Biovail. Employees, officers and directors owe a duty to Biovail to advance its legitimate interests when the opportunity to do so arises.

vi. Biovail may not make loans to any employee, officer or director.

C. Outside Activities

Employees, officers and directors should avoid outside employment or activities which would impair the effective performances of their responsibilities to Biovail, either because of excessive demands on their time, or because the outside commitments can be contrary to their obligations to Biovail

D. Protection and Proper Use of Biovail’s Assets

All employees, officers and directors should protect Biovail’s assets and ensure their efficient use. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on Biovail’s profitability. All of Biovail’s assets should be used only for legitimate business purposes.

E. Fair Dealing

Each employee, officer and director shall endeavor to deal fairly with Biovail’s customers, suppliers, competitors and employers. None should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair-dealing practice,

2. COMPETITIVE PRACTICES

The management of Biovail firmly believes that fair competition is fundamental to continuation of the free-enterprise system. Biovail complies with, and supports, laws of all countries that prohibit restraints of trade, unfair practices, or abuse of economic power.

Biovail will not enter into arrangements that unlawfully restrict its ability to compete with other businesses, or the ability of any other business organization to compete freely with Biovail. Biovail policy also prohibits employees, officers and directors from entering into, or even discussing, any unlawful arrangement or understanding which may affect its pricing policies, terms upon which its products and services are sold, or which might be construed as dividing customers or sales territories with a competitor.

These principles of fair competition are basic to all Biovail operations. They are integral parts of the following sections that cover Biovail’s dealings with suppliers, customers and public officials.

3. DEALING WITH SUPPLIERS

Biovail is a valuable customer for many suppliers of goods, services and facilities. People who want to do business, or to continue to do business, with Biovail must understand that all purchases by Biovail will be made in accordance with its purchasing policy and exclusively on the basis of price, quality, service and suitability to Biovail’s needs.

A. Reciprocity

Biovail considers reciprocity a harmful practice and a hindrance to assuring purchase of the best available materials or services at the lowest possible prices. It will not be practiced or allowed.

Suppliers of goods and services to Biovail will not be asked to buy goods and services from Biovail in order to become or continue as a supplier.

Biovail will not attempt to influence its suppliers to purchase from customers of Biovail. When Biovail makes purchases it will not favor firms who are customers of Biovail or any of its affiliates.

B. “Kickbacks” and Rebates

Purchases or sales of goods and services by Biovail must not lead to employees, officers or directors, or their families, receiving any type of personal kickbacks or rebates. Employees, officers, directors, and their families, must not accept any form of “under-the-table” payment.

C. Receipt of Gifts and Entertainment

Even when gifts and entertainment are exchanged out of the purest motives of personal friendship, they can be misunderstood. They can appear to be attempts to bribe Biovail’s employees, officers or directors into directing business of Biovail to a particular supplier. To avoid both the reality and the appearance of improper relations with suppliers or potential suppliers, the following standards will apply to the receipt of gifts and entertainment by employees, officers and directors of Biovail:

Gifts

i) Employees, officers and directors arc prohibited from soliciting gifts, gratuities, or any other personal benefit or favor of any kind from suppliers or potential suppliers. Gifts include not only merchandise and products but also personal services, and tickets to theatrical and sports events. Employees, officers and directors should exercise good judgment when accepting unsolicited gifts. Employees, officers and directors are prohibited from accepting gifts of money.

ii) Employees, officers and directors may accept unsolicited non-money gifts provided:

(1) They are items of nominal intrinsic value; or

(2) They are advertising and promotional materials, clearly marked with Biovail or brand names of the giver.

iii) Any gift of more than nominal intrinsic value must be reported to the SLO to determine whether it can be accepted. Some gifts may be perishable so as to make their return impractical. Supervisors can permit acceptance of such gifts, but should require employees, officers and directors to tactfully inform givers that such gifts are discouraged.

iv) In the transaction of some international business, it is lawful and customary for business leaders in some countries to give unsolicited gifts to employees, officers or directors of Biovail. These gifts can be of more than nominal value. Moreover, under the circumstances, returning the gifts or payment for them may constitute an affront to the giver. In such cases, the gift must be reported to the SLO who may permit the retaining of the gifts.

v) In all other instances where gifts cannot be returned or may adversely affect Biovail’s continuing business relationships, the SLO must be notified. They can require employees, officers and directors to transfer ownership of such gifts to Biovail.

Entertainment

i) Employees, officers and directors shall not encourage or solicit entertainment from any individual or company with whom Biovail does business. Entertainment includes, but is not limited to, activities such as dinner parties, theater parties, and sporting events.

ii) From time to time employees, officers and directors may accept unsolicited entertainment, but only under the following conditions:

(1) The entertainment occurs infrequently;

(2) It arises out of the ordinary course of business;

(3) It involves reasonable, not lavish expenditures (the amounts involved should be ones employees, officers and directors are accustomed to normally spending for their own business or personal entertainment); and

(4) The entertainment takes place in settings that also are reasonable, appropriate, and fitting to employees, officers and directors, their hosts, and their business at hand.

4. DEALINGS WITH CUSTOMERS AND POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS

Employees, officers and directors must keep all dealings with customers and potential customers fair and above board. Biovail gets business and keeps it because of the quality of its goods and services. Biovail does not give unethical or illegal rebates, kickbacks, under-the-table payments, or other similar improper favors to customers or their representatives.

The boundary line between ethical and unethical competition, or legal and illegal conduct, is not always well defined, particularly in international activities where differing local laws, custom; and practices come into play. Therefore, the following standards will serve as guides:

a) All employees, officers and directors should make themselves aware of and fully comply with all laws, rules and regulations, whether federal, state, local or foreign, including laws governing relations with customers as well as competitors.

b) All employees, officers and directors engaged in negotiations and contracts with foreign governments, the United States or any political subdivision thereof must

also know and abide by the specific rules and regulations covering relations with such governments and their agencies.

c) Employees, officers and directors may not give gifts to customers except items of nominal value, which fit the legal, normal, and customary pattern of Biovail’s sales efforts for a particular market. Exceptions to this policy can occur in international trades where it can be legal, customary, and appropriate business practice to exchange gifts with customers. Only the CEO can authorize the giving, receiving, or exchanging of such gifts. Any gifts received by employees, officers or directors in such an exchange must be reported to the CEO for determination as to the disposition of the gifts.

d) Entertainment for any customer must fit regular business practices. The place and type of entertainment and the money spent must be reasonable and appropriate.

5. DEALING WITH PUBLIC OFFICIALS

Domestic and foreign laws and regulations require Biovail to be in contact with public officials on a wide variety of matters. Employees, officers and directors who regularly make these contacts have special responsibilities for upholding Biovail’s good name. The following standards relate to these special responsibilities:

a) All employees, officers and directors who contact public officials must be familiar with lobbying laws and public disclosure requirements, particularly those that apply to registrations and filings.

b) No employee shall make any form of payment, direct or indirect, to any public official as an inducement to procuring or keeping business or having a law or regulation enacted, defeated, or violated. This is bribery, pure and simple. It will not be tolerated.

It should be acknowledged that inherent in the current health-care regulatory environment, the definition of “form of payment” may include seemingly trivial gifts and/or favors (e.g. buying lunches, coffee, etc.).

c) When not prohibited by law, employees, officers and directors are allowed to give to public officials gifts where the presentation and acceptance of gifts is an established custom and a normal business practice. All such gifts shall be of reasonable value and the presentation approved in advance by the CEO. Moreover, such gifts must be presented in a manner that clearly identifies Biovail and the occasion that warrants the presentation.

d) Employees, officers and directors are also allowed to give public officials gifts in the form of product models and pictures provided the models and pictures are

part of Biovail’s general marketing and public relations programs (except as noted in clause (b) above).

e) On special ceremonial occasions, officers of Biovail may publicly give gifts of more than nominal value to public institutions and public bodies. Such gifts can commemorate special events or milestones in Biovail’s history.

These may be transmitted through public officials but the gifts are given to the public institutions and public groups they represent, not to the officials personally.

f) From time to time employees, officers and directors may entertain public officials, but only under the following conditions:

i. It is legal and permitted by the entity represented by the official;

ii. The entertainment is not solicited by the public official;

iii. The entertainment occurs infrequently;

iv. It arises out of the ordinary course of business;

v. It does not involve lavish expenditures, considering the circumstances;

vi. The settings and types of entertainment are reasonable, appropriate and fitting to our employees, officers or directors, their guests, and the business at hand.

6. POLITICAL ACTIVITIES AND CONTRIBUTIONS

A. Canada and the United States

Employees, officers and directors who participate in partisan political activities must make every effort to ensure that they do not leave the impression that they speak or act for Biovail.

Biovail encourages its employees, officers and directors to participate in political activities in their own time and at their sole expense. No corporate action, direct or indirect, will be allowed that infringes on the right of any employee individually to decide whether, to whom, and in what amount, they will make personal political contributions. The same is true of volunteer political donations of personal service time, so long as it does not interfere with the working status of employees, officers or directors.

B. Outside Canada and the United States

No employees, officers and directors are permitted to use Biovail’s funds, facilities, or other assets, to support either directly or indirectly any political candidates or political parties,

without advance authorization in writing from their immediate supervisor and the General Counsel. The policy of Biovail is that employees, officers and directors and employees should not participate in political activities in countries of which they are not nationals. However, such persons, of course, are free to participate in political activities in countries of which they are nationals in their own time and at their own expense.

7. DISCLOSURE

Biovail has formed a Disclosure Committee to promote consistent practices aimed at informative, timely and broadly disseminated disclosure of Material Information to the market. external stakeholder groups and employees in accordance with all applicable legal, regulatory and stock-exchange requirements.

It is essential that the Disclosure Committee be fully apprised of all material corporate developments to be able to determine whether there is information that should be publicly disclosed, and what the appropriate timing is for release of that information. In some cases, the Disclosure Committee may determine that the information should remain confidential. If that is the case, the Disclosure Committee will determine how that information will be controlled so that it is not inadvertently released. Therefore any employee who becomes aware of information that he/she believes might be material to Biovail and/or any of its affiliates and subsidiaries he/she should advise their manager or supervisor or a member of the Disclosure Committee. Current membership of the Disclosure Committee is posted on the Biovail.com website.

This applies throughout the year, but is particularly critical when annual or quarterly financial statements and Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) or regulatory filings are being prepared (e.g. regulatory filings, such as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Form 20-F).

8. PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS

Given the importance placed on confidentiality and the appropriate disclosures of information regarding Biovail, it is important for employees, officers and directors to ensure that care be taken with any communication regarding Biovail or its activities outside of Biovail.

A. Designated Spokespersons

Biovail has designated official spokespersons who are authorized to speak on behalf of Biovail, and answer questions from the news media and the investment community, about Biovail and its activities. Employees, officers and directors who have not been designated as spokespersons for Biovail are not permitted to speak on behalf of the Company to the news media or to the investment community.

B. Media or Analyst Inquiries

Any employee who is approached by any person asking for comment on the activities of Biovail must direct any and all such inquiries to a member of the Disclosure Committee or to a member of the Company’s Stakeholder Relations team (Corporate Communications, Investor Relations) so that an appropriate spokesperson can respond to the inquiry on behalf of Biovail.

C. Conferences

The Disclosure Committee should be advised of any request to present at any conference or public meeting. Certain materials prepared for any such presentation may be required to be reviewed by the Company’s Stakeholder Relations group.

D. Electronic Communications

Care must be taken in all instances in the use of e-mail, and other devices (e.g., Blackberry’s) in communications relating to Biovail’s business. While users tend to resort to shorthand communication using these kinds of tools, those communications do form a record of those communications that may be subject to later review and disclosure. A more fulsome policy regarding electronic communications is in place (found in the Human Resources Management System Policy Binder) and should be adhered to by all employees, officers and directors.

E. The Internet

Biovail has instituted policies regarding the use of, and access to the Internet by employees, officers and directors. These policies include a prohibition against anyone participating in any chat rooms dedicated to Biovail or its operations or the industry at large. If any employee, officer or director becomes aware that any such chat room exists, they are asked to report the address of such site to the SLO so that it may be monitored and appropriate action may be taken.

9. EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

Biovail supports the principle that every individual must be accorded an equal opportunity to participate in the free-enterprise system and to develop their ability to achieve their full potential within that system.

There shall be no discrimination against any employee or applicant because of race, religion, color, sex, age, sexual orientation, national or ethnic origin, or disability (as required by law) or any other consideration prohibited by local law. All employees, officers and directors will be treated with equality during their employment without regard to their race, religion, color, sex, age, national or ethnic origin, or physical handicap, in all matters, including employment, upgrading, promotion, transfer, layoff, termination, rates of pay, selection for training and recruitment. Biovail will maintain a work environment free of discriminatory practice of any kind.

No employee shall have any authority to engage in any action or course of conduct or to condone any action or course of conduct by any other person which shall in any manner, directly or indirectly, discriminate or result in discrimination in the course of one’s employment, termination of employment, or any related matter where such discrimination is, directly or indirectly, based upon race, religion, color, sex, age, sexual orientation, national or ethnic origin, disability, or any other consideration prohibited by law.

10. HEALTH, SAFETY, AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

It is Biovail’s policy to pay due regard to the health and safety of its employees, officers, directors and others, and to the state of the environment. There are federal, provincial, state and local workplace safety and environmental laws which through various governmental agencies regulate both physical safety of employees, officers and directors and their exposure to conditions in the workplace. Should you be faced with an environmental health issue or have a concern about workplace safety, you should contact your Health and Safety Committee representative or notify Biovail management immediately.

Many countries and their regional and local governments now have complex legislation to protect the health and safety of employees, or the general public, and to prevent pollution and protect the environment. In case of violation, these laws often provide penalties for both the company involved and its executive personnel. Biovail’s SLO should always be consulted when necessary to understand or comply with such laws.

11. WORK ENVIRONMENT

Employees, officers and directors must treat each other with professional courtesy and respect at all times. Employees, officers and directors shall not subject any other employee to unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors or other verbal or physical conduct which might be construed as sexual in nature, or harass others on the basis of race, disability, gender, sexual orientation or any other consideration prohibited by law. Such conduct may constitute sexual harassment or harassment under federal, provincial and state law and may be the basis for legal action against the offending employee and/or Biovail.

Employees are encouraged to report all conduct that they believe in good faith to be violations of local anti-harassment policies. To the extent permissible under local law the identity of the employees, officers or directors involved will be kept strictly confidential, and will not be revealed by Biovail’s management without the employee’s permission. The alleged harassment will be thoroughly investigated by Biovail and appropriate action will be taken. Biovail has an appropriate policy to protect employees against discrimination or retaliation as a result of such a complaint.

12. INTEGRITY OF RECORDS AND FINANCIAL REPORTS

It is of critical importance that Biovail’s filings with the appropriate regulatory authorities (e.g. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) be accurate and timely. Depending on their position

with Biovail, an employee, officer or director may be called upon to provide necessary information to ensure that Biovail’s public reports are complete, fair and understandable. Biovail expects employees, officers and directors to take this responsibility very seriously and to provide prompt accurate answers to inquiries related to Biovail’s public disclosure requirements.

The integrity of Biovail’s record keeping systems will be respected at all times. Employees, officers and directors are forbidden to use, authorize, or condone the use of “off-the-books” bookkeeping, secret accounts, unrecorded bank accounts, “slush” funds, falsified books, or any other devices that could be utilized to distort records or reports of Biovail’s true operating results and financial conditions or could otherwise result in the improper recordation of funds or transactions.

13. USE OLD AGENTS AND NON-EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

Agents or other non-employees cannot be used to circumvent the law. Employees, officers and directors will not retain agents or other representatives to engage in practices that run contrary to the Standards of Business Conduct or applicable laws.

14. INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS

Employees, officers and directors operating outside of Canada and the United States have a special responsibility to know and obey the laws and regulations of countries where they act for Biovail. Customs vary throughout the world, but all employees, officers and directors must uphold the integrity of Biovail in other nations diligently.

15. STANDARDS OF BUSINESS CONDUCT

A. Initial Distribution

i. Employees, officers and directors designated to receive these Standards will receive their copies immediately alter publication.

vi. Sign the verification and return it to their supervisors who will make it part of employee’s permanent corporate records.

C. Maintaining Compliance

i. Employees, officers and directors have the responsibility to maintain their understanding of the Standards of Business Conduct and for following them.

ii. Supervisors have the responsibility to maintain an awareness on the part of their employees, officers and directors of the importance of their adhering to the Standards of Business Conduct and for reporting deviations to Management.

D. Audits of Compliance

Regular audits of Biovail will include procedures to test compliance with the Standards of Business Conduct.

16. VIOLATIONS OF STANDARDS

Employees, officers and directors must immediately report any violations of the Standards or any violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation. Failure to do so can have serious consequences for the employees, officers or directors and for Biovail.

Employees, officers and directors, should report violations to their supervisors and/or to the Human Resources department and to the SLO or to any secure reporting hotline the company may have contracted with. When in doubt, employees should talk to their supervisors or other appropriate personnel to determine the best course of action in a particular situation.

Supervisors and the Human Resources group have the responsibility to promptly and thoroughly investigate all reports, and to report violations to the SLO.

After a violation is investigated, appropriate action will be taken promptly. Management has the right to determine the appropriate disciplinary action for a violation up to and including termination of employment. All proposed disciplinary action is subject to review by senior Management, Human Resources and the SLO.

Employees, officers and directors should be aware that, in addition to any disciplinary action taken by Biovail, violations of certain Standards may require restitution and may lead to civil or criminal action against individual employees, officers and directors and any corporation involved.

Supervisors have the responsibility of taking remedial steps to correct any operating procedures that may contribute to violations of Standards.

Retaliation in any form against an individual who reports a violation of these Standards of Business Conduct or of any law, rule or regulation in good faith, or who assists in the investigation of a reported violation, is itself a serious violation of this policy. Acts of retaliation will be disciplined appropriately and should be reported immediately to your supervisor or Human Resources.

17. CONTINUANCE OF EXISTING PERSONNEL POLICIES, RULES AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS

Biovail has codified numerous personnel policies, rules and standards of employee performance, which continue in force. These Standards of Business Conduct are intended to supplement and amplify those established personnel policies, rules and standards.

It continues to be the responsibility of all employees to comply with all such policies, rules and performance standards. Additionally, all members of management are to continue making certain that employees reporting to them are made aware of established policies, rules and performance standards and comply with them.

18. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND WAIVER

Biovail will periodically review these Standards of Business Conduct. These Standards may be amended, modified or waived by the Board of Directors and waivers may also be granted by the Nominating & Governance Committee, subject to the disclosure and other provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the rules there under and the applicable rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange/New York Stock Exchange. Employees, officers and directors will be fully informed of any revisions to the Standards of Business Conduct.

Any waiver of these Standards for any employee other than a director or an executive officer, may only be made by the Executive Chairman or the CEO. Any waiver of these Standards for director or an executive officer may he made only the Board of Directors or the Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and will be promptly disclosed to Biovail’s stockholders.
