Exhibit 10(m)(ii)

SCHERING-PLOUGH CORPORATION
OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT TEAM INCENTIVE PLAN
(As Amended and Restated Effective June 26, 2006)

1. Plan Objective

The Schering-Plough Corporation Operations Management Team Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (alternatively referred to as the "OMTIP" or the "Plan"), is designed to encourage results-oriented actions on the part of members of the Operations Management Team ("OMT") of Schering-Plough Corporation (the "Company"). The Plan is intended to align closely financial rewards with the achievement of specific performance objectives.

2. Eligibility

All management employees of the Company and its subsidiaries who are members of the OMT are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Administrator (as defined in Section 3 below) may select any other management employees who shall participate in the Plan (the "Participants").

3. Administration

      (a)  The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") with respect to employees who are executives of the Company who are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Section 16 Executives"), and the Plan shall be administered by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company ("CEO") with respect to all other employees. The CEO may delegate his authority to administer the Plan to an individual or other committee. The term "Administrator" shall mean the Committee, as applied to Section 16 Executives, and the CEO or an individual or committee to which authority has been delegated, as applied to all other employees.

      (b)  The Administrator shall have full power and authority to establish the rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to interpret the Plan and those rules and regulations, to select Participants for the Plan, to determine each Participant’s target award, performance goals and final award, to make all factual and other determinations in connection with the Plan, and to take all other actions necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan, including the delegation of such authority or power, where appropriate. Only the Committee shall take the foregoing actions with respect to Section 16 Executives.

      (c)  All powers of the Administrator shall be executed in its sole discretion, in the best interest of the Company, not as a fiduciary, and in keeping with the objectives of the Plan and need not be uniform as to similarly situated individuals. The Administrator’s administration of the Plan, including all such rules and regulations, interpretations, selections, determinations, approvals, decisions, delegations, amendments, terminations and other actions, shall be final and binding on the Company and all employees of the Company, including the Participants and their respective beneficiaries.

4. Target Awards and Performance Goals

      (a)  At the beginning of each plan year designated by the Administrator (a "Plan Year"), the Administrator shall establish for each Participant a target incentive award, which shall be expressed as a dollar amount, a percentage of salary or otherwise. The Administrator shall establish for each Section 16 Executive a maximum award that may be paid for the Plan Year. The maximum award amount for Section 16 Executives will remain fixed for the entire Plan Year and may not be increased based on an increase in salary during the Plan Year or otherwise. The target awards will be based on a number of factors, including but not limited to:

 

Market competitiveness of the position

 

   

 

Job level

 

   

 

Base salary level

 

   

 

Past individual performance

 

   

 

Expected contribution to future Company performance and business impact

      (b)  At the beginning of each Plan Year, the Administrator shall establish for each Participant performance goals that must be met in order for an award to be payable for the Plan Year. The Administrator shall establish in writing (i) the performance goals that must be met, (ii) the threshold, target and maximum amounts that may be paid if the performance goals are met, and (iii) any other conditions that the Administrator deems appropriate and consistent with the Plan and, in the case of Section 16 Executives, the exception for "qualified performance-based compensation" (the "Section 162(m) Exception") under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Administrator shall establish objective performance goals for each Participant related to the Participant’s business unit or the performance of the Company and its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates as a whole, or any combination of the foregoing. The Administrator may also establish subjective performance goals for Participants; provided that, for Section 16 Executives, the subjective performance goals may only be used to reduce, and not increase, the award otherwise payable under the Plan. The Company shall notify each Participant of his or her target award and the performance goals for the Plan Year.

      (c)  The objectively determinable performance goals shall be based on one or more of the following criteria related to the Participant’s business unit or the performance of the Company and its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates as a whole, or any combination of the foregoing: stock price, earnings per share, net earnings, operating or other earnings, profits, revenues, net cash flow, financial return ratios, return on assets, stockholder return, return on equity, growth in assets, unit volume, sales, market share, drug discovery or other scientific goals, pre-clinical or clinical goals, regulatory approvals, or strategic business criteria consisting of one or more objectives based on meeting specified revenue goals, market penetration goals, geographic business expansion goals, cost targets, goals relating to acquisitions or divestitures, or strategic partnerships.

      (d)  For Section 16 Executives, the Administrator must establish the target awards and performance goals no later than the earlier
