SCHEDULE 13D
Item 1. Security and Issuer
This statement constitutes Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D relating to the shares of Common Stock, no par value (“Shares”), issued
by Bausch Health Companies Inc. (the “Issuer”), and hereby amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 11, 2021 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D
filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021 and Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021, to furnish the additional information set forth herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have
the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with the following:
The Reporting Persons may be
deemed to be the beneficial owner of, in the aggregate, 34,109,152 Shares, which were purchased by the Reporting Persons for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $422.3 million.
The source of funding for the Shares (including Shares underlying forward contracts) held by the Reporting Persons was the general
working capital of the respective purchasers. The Shares held by the Reporting Persons are held in margin accounts together with other securities. Such margin accounts may from time to time have debit balances. Part of the purchase price of such
Shares was obtained through margin borrowing.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Items 5(a) and (b) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended by replacing them in their entirety with the following:
(a) The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 34,109,152 Shares, representing approximately 9.59% of
the Issuer's outstanding Shares (based on the 355,619,826 Shares outstanding as of February 18, 2021, as disclosed by the Issuer in the Issuer’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020).
(b) Icahn Master has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 14,169,189 Shares. Each of Icahn Offshore, Icahn
Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn has shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Shares. Icahn Partners has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to
19,939,963 Shares. Each of Icahn Onshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn has shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Shares.
Each of Icahn Offshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn, by virtue of their
relationships to Icahn Master (as disclosed in Item 2), may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the “Act”) the Shares which Icahn Master directly
beneficially owns. Each of Icahn Offshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes. Each of Icahn Onshore, Icahn Capital, IPH,
Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn, by virtue of their relationships to Icahn Partners (as disclosed in Item 2), may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act)
the Shares which Icahn Partners directly beneficially owns. Each of Icahn Onshore, Icahn Capital, IPH, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, Icahn Enterprises GP, Beckton and Mr. Icahn disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes.
(c) The following table sets forth all transactions with respect to Shares effected since the Reporting Persons filed Amendment No. 2 to
the Schedule 13D on March 11, 2021. Except as otherwise noted below, all such transactions were purchases of Shares effected in the open market, and the table includes commissions paid in per share prices.

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following:
