Section V below.

 

  A. Description of Consideration. In consideration for my releases, promises
and representations in this Agreement, and provided that (i) this Agreement
becomes effective in accordance with Section XVI below, (ii) I do not
voluntarily resign my employment prior to the Separation Date as set forth in
Section IV.B, (iii) my employment is not terminated by the Company for Cause
prior to the Separation Date, (iv) I or my legal representative and/or a
representative of my estate re-execute this Agreement following the Separation
Date (and do/does not revoke such re-execution) and (v) I do not materially
breach the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver the following
compensation and benefits (the “Separation Benefits”) to me as follows:

 

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. One Million Five Hundred Seventy Five Thousand dollars ($1,575,000), less
applicable taxes and withholding, paid out in substantially equal monthly
installments over a nine-month period, which installments shall be payable on
the first day of each month, with the first installment payable on the first day
of the calendar month immediately following the Separation Date;

 

  2.

Subject to Section III.A.3 below, an amount equal to the monthly cost of
continuing medical, dental, vision, and Employee Assistance Program (“EAP”)
coverage under the Company’s medical, dental, vision, and EAP programs under the
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) for myself and
my eligible dependents (including my spouse) through the nine month anniversary
following the Separation Date beginning on the first day of the first month
following the Termination Date; provided that (a) as of my Termination Date, I
am covered under a Company plan for such medical, dental, vision, and EAP
coverage (as applicable), and the Company continues to offer such benefit to its
rank-and-file employees who are not covered under a collective bargaining
agreement; (b) with respect to the medical benefits only, if during the
continuation period immediately following my Termination Date the Company ceases
to offer a medical program to its rank-and-file employees who are not covered
under a collective bargaining agreement, the payment during the remainder of the
continuation period shall change to an amount equal to the monthly premium for
equivalent medical insurance coverage;

 

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  and (c) if during the continuation period I become eligible, as a full-time
employee, for group medical, dental, vision, and/or EAP insurance from another
employer, I shall forfeit any such future payments from the Company;

 

  3. In the event payments for continued medical, dental, vision, or EAP
coverage as provided for in Section III.A.2 above or such continued coverage
itself, by reason of change in the applicable law, may, in the Company’s
reasonable view, result in tax or other penalties on the Company, the provisions
of Section III.A.2 above shall terminate and the Company and I shall, in good
faith, negotiate for a substitute provision which does not result in such tax or
other penalties; and

 

  4.

The continued vesting through my Termination Date of my outstanding equity
awards (as set forth in Schedule A, attached hereto) in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the applicable grant notices and agreements, and the
equity plan documents, other than with respect to the performance share awards
discussed in the following sentences. Notwithstanding the foregoing, my
outstanding performance shares granted on March 5, 2014, and March 4, 2015 shall
be eligible to vest in a number of shares equal to the lesser of: (i) the number
of shares earned based on actual achievement of performance criteria through the
end of the applicable performance period; or (ii) the number of shares that
would have vested based on an assumed performance period ending as of
September 1, 2015. In either case, the vesting of these performance shares

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  shall be pro-rated for the portion of the applicable performance period that I
was employed by the Company from the commencement of the applicable performance
period through September 1, 2015. On or before November 1, 2015, the Company
shall deliver to me a written estimate of the performance relating to such
awards through September 1, 2015. Any performance shares so earned shall be
delivered as soon as practicable following the end of the applicable performance
period, but in any event within ninety (90) days following the end of such
period. To the extent permitted under the Express Scripts, Inc. 2011 Long-Term
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), my outstanding performance shares granted on
March 6, 2013 shall be eligible to vest in a number of shares equal to the
number of shares earned based on actual achievement of performance criteria
through the end of the performance period, without pro-ration. Any shares so
earned shall be delivered as soon as practicable following the end of the
performance period, but in any event within ninety (90) days following the end
of such period.

 

  5. In lieu of my cash bonus for the 2015 performance period, a transition
bonus in the amount of Three Hundred Forty Six Thousand Nine Hundred Eighteen
dollars ($346,918) shall be paid to me by the Company between January 1, 2016
and March 15, 2016.

 

  6. The continued vesting through my Termination Date of my accounts under the
Company’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“EDCP”) in accordance with the
terms of the EDCP and the terms of the contributions made by the Company to my
EDCP account.

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The consideration in Sections III.A.1-3 and 5 shall remain due and payable to me
(or to my estate) regardless of my death and/or Disability (as defined in
Article I of the Employment Agreement and incorporated herein by reference). The
effect of my death and/or Disability on the consideration set forth in Section
III.A.4 shall be governed by the terms of the applicable grant notices and
agreements, and the equity plan documents and the consideration set forth in
Section III.A.6 shall be governed by the terms of the EDCP and the terms of the
contributions made by the Company to my EDCP account.

 

  B. Accrued Benefits. In addition to the consideration described above, I
understand that I will be paid the amounts below. I acknowledge that upon
receipt of these amounts, I will have been paid any and all amounts owed to me
by the Company through my Termination Date (defined below), including but not
limited to all wages, salary, overtime pay, vacation pay, bonuses, commissions,
and all other compensation of any nature whatsoever, as well as any business
expenses that I incurred on the Company’s behalf through the Termination Date.

 

  1. Base Salary through the Termination Date;

 

  2. Accrued and unused PTO;

 

  3. Vested amounts under the EDCP, paid out in accordance with the terms of the
plan and the terms of the contributions made by the Company to my EDCP account.

 

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I authorize the Company to withhold from my Separation Benefits or Termination
Benefits (defined below) the appropriate payroll taxes and to offset against my
Separation Benefits or Termination Benefits any advances, loans or amounts I owe
to the Company, to the extent permitted under applicable law. I am not aware of
any amount that I owe the Company.

 

IV. Transition Services.

 

  A. I will continue to be employed by the Company on a part-time basis from the
date of this Agreement through the earlier to occur of: (i) the Separation Date;
(ii) the date that I voluntarily resign my employment in writing in accordance
with Section IV.B; (iii) the date upon which I die or am deemed to have a
Disability or (iv) the date set forth in any written notice of termination by
the Company pursuant to Section IV.B. Such date is referred to herein as the
“Termination Date.”

 

  B. Prior to the Separation Date, the Company may terminate my employment with
or without Cause and I may voluntarily resign my employment for any reason. Such
termination shall be communicated to the other party by written notice in
accordance with Section XVII and such notice shall set forth the effective date
of termination; provided, that the Termination Date shall not be less than
fifteen (15) days after such notice is delivered in the event of my voluntary
termination of employment or a termination of employment by the Company other
than for Cause.

 

  C.

During the Transition Period, the Company, in its sole discretion, may require
me to provide services upon the request of the Chairman of the Board or his
designee on a project-by-project basis. Such services shall equal or exceed
twenty percent (20%) of the services I provided to the Company prior to the date
hereof. I shall

 

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  perform all transition services with a level of skill and care generally
exercised by other similarly situated employees, and in performing such
services, I shall comply fully with all applicable laws and all applicable
policies of the Company. In exchange for the transition services, (i) my Base
Salary shall continue to be paid during the Transition Period in accordance with
the normal payroll practices of the Company and (ii) through the Termination
Date, I shall participate in all Company benefit plans as a regular employee,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Company benefit plans; provided, that
I shall not be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual bonus program for
either the 2015 or 2016 performance period, nor shall I receive any additional
grants of equity awards following the date hereof. It is understood and agreed
that nothing contained herein shall preclude me from pursuing other interests
and opportunities during the Transition Period provided said interests and
opportunities do not materially interfere with my fulfilling my obligations
hereunder, including, but not limited to, Sections IV, V and XI of this
Agreement.

 

  D. In consideration for my releases, promises and representations in this
Agreement, if my employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or
I die or am deemed to have a Disability, in each case, prior to the Separation
Date, the Company shall continue to pay me my Base Salary through the Separation
Date in accordance with the normal payroll practices of the Company (the
“Termination Benefits”); provided, that: (X) this Agreement becomes effective in
accordance with Section XVI below; (Y) I (or my legal representatives/estate)
re-execute this Agreement following the Termination Date and I (or my legal
representatives/estate) do not revoke such consent to such re-execution; and
(Z) I do not materially breach the express terms of this Agreement.

 

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

V. Agreement to Release My Claims. In exchange for the consideration set forth
in Sections III and IV above, I, on behalf of myself and my heirs,
administrators, executors, and assigns, agree to fully and forever give up,
release, remise, discharge and waive all my Claims against the Company for
anything that has occurred from the beginning of time through the Effective Date
(as defined in Section XVI of this Agreement), regardless of whether I am
currently aware of such Claims or not. I have not and will not, for myself or on
behalf of any person, entity or government, bring any federal, state or local
lawsuit, complaint, grievance, or action, judicial or administrative, or make
any other demands against the Company based on my Claims. The consideration I am
receiving is a full and fair payment for the release of my Claims as outlined
here. It is also my intention to release any right to recover damages under
Title VII, ADEA, the OWBPA, the ADA, the Missouri Laws Against Discrimination,
and all other federal, state and local civil rights or other statutes,
regulations, or ordinances. In exchange for the consideration set forth above, I
further agree that in the event any person or entity should bring a charge,
claim, complaint, or action on my behalf, I hereby waive and forfeit any right
to recovery under said claim and will exercise every good faith effort (but will
not be obliged to incur any expense) to have such claim dismissed.

 

   I agree to pay back all monies paid to me in accordance with this Agreement
if I assert a Claim, file a complaint or charge with a government agency, or sue
the Company for any Claim, except as may otherwise be prohibited under ADEA or
the OWBPA. Such repayment will be made within thirty (30) days of my filing of a
complaint, charge, or lawsuit.

 

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with my right to initiate, cooperate,
or participate in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission or any other federal or state regulatory or
law enforcement agency. However, the consideration provided to me in this
Agreement shall be the sole relief provided to me for the Claims that are
released by me herein, and I will not be entitled to recover and agree to waive
any monetary benefits or recovery against the Company in connection with such
Claim without regard to who has brought such claim.

Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict my right under ADEA or the
OWBPA to challenge the validity of this Agreement in a court of law.

This Release does not apply to any rights I may have under workers’ compensation
and unemployment compensation policies or statutes.

 

VI. Substitute Consideration. In the event that the provision or payment of any
Separation Benefits is not permitted under the terms of the Plan, the Company
and I shall, in good faith, negotiate for substitute consideration.

 

VII. Intentionally Omitted.

 

VIII. Resignation. In addition to any other obligations to cooperate with the
Company, I specifically agree to execute and deliver any documents reasonably
requested by the Company in order to effectuate or further evidence my
resignation from any corporate officer, director, or similar positions with the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and any related Boards or
other positions and any other documents or forms reasonably requested by the
Company in connection with the Company’s proxy statement and other public
filings; provided any such documents shall not be deemed to constitute my
resignation as an employee of the Company.

 

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IX. Intentionally Omitted.

 

X. Breach. If I materially breach any of the covenants contained in this
Agreement, I agree that irreparable injury will result to the Company, that the
remedy at law for damages will be inadequate, and that the Company will be
entitled to an injunction and/or other equitable relief to restrain my
continuing breach, to specifically enforce the terms of this Agreement, or to
prevent a breach of any part of this Agreement. In addition, and without
prejudice to any other remedies available in law or equity, I agree that any
consideration paid or promised by the Company in accordance with this Agreement
will be forfeited and/or repaid by me in the event I materially breach any of
the provisions of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the covenants
and obligations contained in Sections IV, V and XI of this Agreement. The
prevailing party shall also be entitled to damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees,
and other costs incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement.

 

XI. Employment Agreement. The terms of the Employment Agreement are hereby
incorporated herein by reference, and, except as specifically superseded or
amended by this Agreement, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, the
parties agree that Articles II, III and IV of the Employment Agreement have been
superseded in their entirety by this Agreement. With respect to the provisions
of Article V of the Employment Agreement, notwithstanding the specific terms of
the Employment Agreement, the “Nonsolicit Period” shall expire on September 1,
2017, and the “Noncompete Period” shall expire on March 1, 2017 (subject in
either case to any applicable tolling periods).

 

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

XII. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance
with the substantive and procedural laws of the State of Missouri regardless of
any principles of conflicts of law. Any action concerning this Agreement shall
be filed in St. Louis County, Missouri or the applicable federal court.

 

XIII. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Schedules hereto sets forth the
entire agreement between me and the Company with respect to the subject matter
hereof and shall supersede all prior negotiations, representations or agreements
relating thereto, whether written or oral. I agree that no promises or
representations have been made to me outside the written terms of this Agreement
to induce me to enter into it. I hereby acknowledge that I am bound by duties of
confidentiality and loyalty to the Company that may arise outside this
Agreement, such as the duties arising from other agreements or common law.

 

XIV. Voluntary and Knowing. I understand and voluntarily execute this Agreement
and assent to its terms, and affirm that my decision to sign this Agreement has
been made freely and without any duress or coercion. I have read this Agreement
carefully and understand all its terms. I have had the opportunity to review
this Agreement with my own attorney, and have been and am hereby again advised
to consult with my own attorney before signing this Agreement. In agreeing to
sign this Agreement, I have not relied on any representations, promises,
agreements, statements or explanations made by the Company or its attorneys in
connection with my decision to accept. This Agreement describes everything that
I have received or will receive for its execution, and I am not relying on any
other promises or representations in deciding whether to execute this Agreement.

 

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

XV. Waiver. I agree that any delay or failure by the Company in enforcing any
provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver in any way of the right
to enforce that particular provision or any other provision.

 

XVI. Execution and Rescission Periods.

 

  A. I understand that I have up to twenty-one (21) calendar days from today,
September 9, 2015, within which to consider and execute this Agreement (which
includes any time spent negotiating this Agreement; any changes made to this
Agreement as a result will not restart the 21-day consideration period). I
understand that I may revoke my execution for a period of seven (7) calendar
days following my execution of this Agreement. To be effective, my revocation
must be in writing and delivered to the Company in accordance with Section XVII.
This Agreement shall not become effective until the eighth day following my
execution of this Agreement (the “Effective Date”). I understand that if I
revoke my execution within the applicable seven (7) calendar-day period, all of
the Company’s obligations to me under this Agreement will immediately cease, the
Company will not be required to provide the consideration set forth in Sections
III and IV of this Agreement and I will be required to return any payment made
to me in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

  B.

In order to be entitled to the consideration set forth in Sections III and IV
hereof, I understand that I must re-execute this Agreement during the twenty-one
(21) calendar day period beginning on the Termination Date. I understand that I
may

 

15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  revoke my re-execution for a period of seven (7) calendar days following my
re-execution of this Agreement. To be effective, my revocation must be in
writing and delivered to the Company in accordance with Section XVII. I
understand that if I do not re-execute this Agreement within the twenty-one
(21) calendar day period or I revoke my re-execution within the applicable seven
(7) calendar-day period, all of the Company’s obligations to me under this
Agreement will immediately cease, the Company will not be required to provide
the consideration set forth in Sections III and IV of this Agreement and I will
be required to return any payment made to me accruing on or after the
Termination Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Neither my not
re-executing this Agreement nor my revocation of my re-execution shall in any
way affect my prior release of claims under this Agreement. By my re-execution
of this Agreement, the release set forth in Section V shall be deemed to cover
any claims which I have, may have had, or thereafter may have existing or
occurring at any time on or before the date on which I re-execute this
Agreement. This second release shall be effective on the eighth day following my
re-execution of this Agreement without revocation.

 

XVII. Notices. All notices or communications to be given or delivered under or
by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been given when delivered personally, mailed by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or sent via a
nationally recognized overnight courier, or sent via facsimile to the recipient.
Such notices or communications shall be sent to the address indicated below:

To the Company:

Express Scripts Holding Company

One Express Way

Saint Louis, MO 63121

Attention: Chief Legal Officer

To me:

 

XVIII. Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
this Agreement to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to be
binding. Such a court shall also have the authority to modify any clause solely
in order to render the provision valid to the maximum extent compatible with
applicable law.

 

XIX.

Section 409A. The intent of the Parties is that payments and benefits under this
Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) to the extent
subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this
Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: (i) if at the time of my
termination of employment with the Company, I am a “specified employee” as
defined in Section 409A and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or
benefits, or portions thereof, otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such
termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or
additional tax under Section 409A, then the Company will defer the commencement
of the payment of any such payments or benefits, or portions thereof, hereunder
(without any reduction in the total amount of such payments or benefits
ultimately paid or provided to me hereunder, and such amount so deferred shall
be subsequently paid with interest as set forth in the Employment Agreement)
until the date that is six (6) months following my termination of employment
with the Company (or the

 

17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A); (ii) if any other payments
of money or other benefits due to me hereunder could cause the application of an
accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or other
benefits, or portions thereof, shall be deferred if deferral will make such
payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A (without any reduction in
the total amount of such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to me
hereunder, and such amount so deferred shall be subsequently paid with interest
as set forth in the Employment Agreement), or otherwise such payment or other
benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined
by the Company that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax;
(iii) to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax
penalties under Section 409A, I shall not be considered to have terminated
employment with the Company for purposes of this Agreement and no payment shall
be due to me under this Agreement until I would be considered to have incurred a
“separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A;
and (iv) each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided to me pursuant to this
Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of
Section 409A. To the extent required to avoid an accelerated or additional tax
under Section 409A, amounts reimbursable to me under this Agreement shall be
paid to me on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the
expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and
in-kind benefits provided to me) during any one year may not effect amounts
reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year.

 

XX. No Admission. Nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute an admission of
wrongdoing by the Company. Neither this Agreement nor any of its terms shall be
used as an admission or introduced as evidence as to any issue of law or fact in
any proceeding, suit or action, other than an action to enforce this Agreement.

 

18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

XXI. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures may be
exchanged by facsimile or email.

 

XXII. Headings and Captions. The headings and captions used throughout this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of
this Agreement.
