Delaware corporation ("Allergan") amends and restates in its
entirety the
"Allergan, Inc. Pension Plan (Restated 2003)" and shall be known

1.2 Plan Purpose. The purpose of the Allergan, Inc. Pension Plan
(Restated

provisions of
the Plan, which is to be administered by the Committee for the

specified in
the Plan. The provisions of this Plan document apply generally to
Employees who

Affiliated
Companies on or after January 1, 2005 and the rights and benefits,
if any, of
Employees or Participants whose employment with Allergan or any
Affiliated
Companies terminated prior to January 1, 2005 shall be determined
in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan then in effect unless otherwise
provided herein
and subject to any modification provided herein that may affect the
payment of
benefits under the Plan.
1.4 Amendments to Plan. The Plan has been amended from time to time
since
its Original Effective Date of July 26, 1989 to reflect changes in
the Plan's
operations and applicable law including, but not limited to, the
following:
(a) This Plan document amends the Plan to eliminate the
mandatory
cash-out of Accrued Benefits that do not exceed $5,000 effective
March 28,
2005. The Plan document also incorporates the amendments made under
the
First and Second Amendments to the Plan (Restated 2003).
(b) During the 2002 Plan Year, under election procedures
established
by Allergan, all Employees who are Eligible Employees (as defined
in
Section 2.17(b)) on September 30, 2002 shall be provided with
the
opportunity to make a one-time irrevocable election to either (i)
continue
active participation in the Plan for Plan Years beginning on and
after
January 1, 2003 until their participation is terminated under the
terms of
the Plan or (ii) cease active participation in the Plan for Plan
Years
beginning on and after January 1, 2003 and be eligible to receive
an
allocation equal to 5% of compensation under the Allergan, Inc.
Savings and
Investment Plan as provided under
<PAGE>
and subject to the terms of that plan. Eligible Employees who elect
to
cease active participation in the Plan: (i) shall not be credited
with
Benefit Years after December 31, 2002 but shall continue to be
credited
with Vesting Years as provided under the terms of the Plan and (ii)
shall
be entitled to a monthly pension upon completing five (5) Vesting
Years or
upon reaching the Special Retirement Eligibility Date and
completing one
(1) Vesting Year, the amount of which shall be equal to his or her
Accrued
Benefit determined as of December 31, 2002, at such times and in
such forms
as permitted under the Plan.
(c) In connection with the distribution of the stock of
Advanced
Medical Optics, Inc. ("AMO") by Allergan to its stockholders on
June 29,
2002, (i) AMO Employees (as defined in Section 2.20) shall cease to
be
eligible to participate in the Plan and shall cease to be credited
with
Benefit Years and Vesting Years under the Plan, (ii) AMO Employees
shall
have a nonforfeitable interest in their Accrued Benefits
notwithstanding
Section 5.11, and (iii) the assets attributable to, and the
liabilities
relating to, arising out of, or resulting from the Accrued Benefits
of AMO
Employees shall remain with the Pension Plan and shall be payable
from the
Plan to AMO Employees at such times and in such forms as permitted
under
the Plan.

Plastics facility in Santa Ana, California ("Medical Plastics"),
(i)
Participants whose employment is terminated as a result of the
closure of
Medical Plastics, as determined by the payroll records of the
Sponsor or
any Affiliated Company shall have a nonforfeitable interest in
their
Accrued Benefits notwithstanding Section 5.11 effective as of
their
termination dates, and (ii) the Accrued Benefits of such
Participants shall
be payable from the Plan to such Participants at such times and in
such
forms as permitted under the Plan.
1.5 Plan Qualification. The Plan is an employee benefit plan that
is
intended to qualify under Code Section 401(a) as a qualified
pension plan so as
to assure that the trust created under the Plan is tax exempt
pursuant to Code
Section 501(a). The Plan's last determination letter was issued by
the Internal
Revenue Service on March 7, 2003 with respect to the Allergan, Inc.
Pension Plan
(Restated 2003) and its compliance with the changes to the
qualification
requirements made by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (GATT), the
Uniformed
Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, the Small
Business Job
Protection Act of 1996, the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, the
Internal Revenue
Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, and the Community
Renewal Tax
Relief Act of 2000. It is intended that the Economic Growth and Tax
Relief
Reconciliation Act of 2001 ("EGTRRA") provisions of the Plan are to
be regarded
as good faith compliance with the requirements of EGTRRA and are to
be construed
in accordance with EGTRRA and guidance issued thereunder.

accordance with the
following rules:
(a) The consent of the Participant shall be obtained in writing
within
the 90-day period ending on the Annuity Starting Date. No such
consent
shall be effective with respect to a married Participant unless
the
Participant's spouse consents thereto in writing. Spousal consent
shall not
be required if a married Participant elects a joint and survivor
option
providing for payment of at least 50% of his or her annuity to his
or her
surviving spouse or the Sponsor determines there is no spouse or
the spouse
cannot be located. Neither the consent of the Participant nor
the
Participant's spouse shall be required to the extent the payment
or
commencement of the Participant's pension is required to begin
under
Section 5.8.
(b) Each Participant shall receive in written nontechnical language
a
notice which shall include a general description of the material
features,
and an explanation of the relative values of, the available
optional forms
of benefit. Such notice shall be furnished to the Participant no
less than
30 days and no more than 90 days prior to the Participant's
Annuity
Starting Date; provided, however, the Participant's pension may be
paid or
commence less than 30 days after such notice is furnished if the
notice
clearly informs the Participant that he or she has at least 30 days
after
receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether or not to
elect
the commencement of his or her pension (and, if applicable, an
optional
form of benefit), and the Participant, after receiving the
notice,
affirmatively elects to commence his or her pension.
5.6 Maximum Pension. The largest aggregate annual pension that may
be paid
to any Participant in any Plan Year under the Plan shall be
determined as
follows:
(a) Subject to paragraphs (b) through (d), the largest
aggregate
annual pension that may be paid to any Participant in any Plan
Year, when
added to the pension under any other qualified defined benefit
plan
maintained by the Sponsor or any Affiliated Company, shall not
exceed the
lesser of:
(i) The Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation of $160,000 ($90,000
for Plan Years prior to the 2002 Limitation Year), multiplied by
a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of the
Participant's
years of participation (or a part thereof) in the Plan or, up to
the
Spin-Off Date in the SKB Plan or in the Beckman Instruments,
Inc.
Pension Plan, not in excess of ten, and the denominator of which
is
ten; or
21
<PAGE>
(ii) The Defined Benefit Compensation Limitation of 100% of the
Participant's average annual total cash remuneration from the
Company
in the thirty-six consecutive months which yield the highest
average,
multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of
the
Participant's Vesting Years (or a part thereof) not in excess of
ten
and the denominator of which is ten.
Benefit increases resulting from the increase in the Defined
Benefit
Dollar Limitation and the Defined Benefit Compensation Limitation
under the
Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 shall
apply to
all Employees participating in the Plan who have one (1) Hour of
Service on
or after January 1, 2002.
(b) The limitations set forth in this Section 5.6 shall be
determined
as provided below:
(i) The Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation shall automatically
be
adjusted annually for increases in the cost of living as provided
in
Code Section 415(d). The adjusted limitation shall be effective as
of
January 1st of each calendar year and shall be applicable to
Limitation Years ending with or within that calendar year. Such
new
limitation is incorporated herein by this reference and shall
be
substituted for the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation set forth
in
paragraph (a) above.
(ii) "Cash remuneration" shall mean "compensation" as defined
in
Section 5.12.
(iii) For purposes of this Section, a Participant's pension
shall
be measured as a Single Life Annuity or Qualified Joint and
Survivor
Annuity. A pension benefit shall be treated as a Qualified Joint
and
Survivor Annuity if it meets all of the requirements as defined
in
Section 2.35 except that the periodic payments to the spouse may
be
equal to or greater than 50%, but not more than 100%, of those to
the
Participant.
(iv) A benefit payable in a form other than a Single Life
Annuity
or Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity described in
subparagraph
(iii) above shall be adjusted to the Actuarial Equivalent of a
Straight Life Annuity before applying the limitations of this
Section.
Effective for Limitation Years commencing on or after January 1,
1995,
Actuarial Equivalent for the form of benefit shall be determined
using
(1) the interest rate and mortality table specified in Appendix A
or
(2) 5% interest (or for lump sums or other benefits subject to
Code
Section 417(e)(3), the applicable interest rate under Code
Section
415(b)(2)(E)(ii) as determined as provided in Appendix A) and
the
applicable mortality table under Code Section 415(b)(2)(E)(v),
whichever produces the greater Actuarial Equivalent value.
(v) In addition to other limitations set forth in the Plan and
notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the accrued
benefit,
including the right to any optional benefits provided in the Plan
(and
all other defined benefit plans required to be aggregated with
this
Plan under the provisions of
22
<PAGE>
Code Section 415) shall not increase to an amount in excess of
the
amount permitted under Code Section 415 at any time.
(c) For Limitation Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002,
the
Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation for any Participant shall be
adjusted as
follows:
(i) If a Participant's pension begins prior to age 62, the
Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation applicable to the Participant
at
such earlier age is an annual benefit payable in the form of a
straight life annuity beginning at the earlier age that is the
actuarial equivalent of the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation
applicable to the Participant at age 62 (as adjusted under
paragraph
(a) above, if required). The Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation
applicable at an age prior to age 62 is determined as the lesser
of
(1) the Actuarial Equivalent (at such age) of the Defined
Benefit
Dollar Limitation computed using the factors specified in Section
5.3
or (2) the actuarial equivalent (at such age) of the Defined
Benefit
Dollar Limitation computed using a 5 percent interest rate and
the
applicable mortality table specified in Appendix A to the Plan.
Any
decrease in the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation determined in
accordance with this paragraph (c) shall not reflect a
mortality
decrement if benefits are not forfeited upon the death of the
Participant. If any benefits are forfeited upon death, the full
mortality decrement is taken into account.
(ii) If a Participant's pension begins after age 65, the
Defined
Benefit Dollar Limitation applicable to the Participant at such
later
age is the annual benefit payable in the form of a straight
life
annuity beginning at the later age that is actuarially equivalent
to
the defined benefit dollar limitation applicable to the Participant
at
age 65 (as adjusted under paragraph (a) above, if required).
The
actuarial equivalent of the Defined Benefit Dollar Limitation
applicable at an age after age 65 is determined as (1) the lesser
of
the Actuarial Equivalent (at such age) of the Defined Benefit
Dollar
Limitation computed using the interest rate and mortality table
specified in Appendix A to the Plan or (2) the actuarial
equivalent
(at such age) of the Defin
