    PURPOSE



 



    1.1 General.  The purpose of the WebMD
    Health Corp. 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as it may be amended
    from time to time, the “Plan”) is to promote the
    success, and enhance the value, of WebMD Health Corp., a
    Delaware Corporation (the “Corporation”), by linking
    the personal interests of its employees, officers, directors and
    consultants to those of Corporation shareholders and by
    providing such persons with an incentive for outstanding
    performance. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility
    to the Corporation in its ability to motivate, attract and
    retain the services of employees, officers, directors and
    consultants upon whose judgment, interest and special effort the
    successful conduct of the Corporation’s operation is
    largely dependent. Accordingly, the Plan permits the grant of
    incentive awards from time to time to selected employees and
    officers, directors and consultants.

    Corporation”) or (y) if applicable, the ultimate
    parent corporation that directly or indirectly has beneficial
    ownership of 100% of the voting securities eligible to elect
    directors of the Surviving Corporation (the “Parent
    Corporation”), is represented by the Corporation Voting

    provided, however, that in no event shall a Change
    of Control be deemed to have occurred so long as
    HLTH Corporation directly or indirectly beneficially owns
    at least 50% of the voting power represented by the securities
    of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to an Award that is
    subject to Section 409A of the Code, and payment or
    settlement of such Award is to be accelerated in connection with

    event set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) will
    constitute a Change of Control for purposes of the Plan and any
    Award Agreement unless such event also constitutes a
    “change in the ownership”, “change in the
    effective control” or “change in the ownership of a

    determines in good faith to be reasonable; provided, however,
    that if the Stock underlying an Award is sold on the same day as
    the date of exercise or settlement or the date on which the
    restrictions lapse applicable to Restricted Stock or similar
    Award through a broker approved by the Corporation, Fair Market
    Value shall be the actual sale price of the Stock in such
    transaction or transactions. With respect to awards granted on

    ADMINISTRATION



 



    4.1 Committee.  The Plan shall be
    administered by a committee (the “Committee”)
    appointed by the Board (which Committee shall consist of two or
    more directors) or, at the discretion of the Board from time to
    time, the Plan may be administered by the Board. It is intended
    that the directors appointed to serve on the Committee shall be
    “non-employee directors” (within the meaning of
    Rule 16b-3
    promulgated under the 1934 Act) and “outside
    directors” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of
    the Code) to the extent that
    Rule 16b-3
    and, if necessary for relief from the limitation under
    Section 162(m) of the Code and such relief is sought by the
    Corporation, Section 162(m) of the Code, respectively, are
    applicable. However, the mere fact that a Committee member shall
    fail to qualify under either of the foregoing requirements shall
    not invalidate (a) any Award made by the Committee which Award
    is otherwise validly made under the Plan or (b) any other
    action taken by the Committee which action is otherwise validly
    taken under the Plan. The members of the Committee shall be
    appointed by, and may be changed at any time and from time to
    time in the discretion of, the Board. During any time that the
    Board is acting as administrator of the Plan, it shall have all
    the powers of the Committee hereunder, and any reference herein
    to the Committee (other than in this Section 4.1) shall
    include the Board.



 



    4.2 Action by the Committee.  For purposes
    of administering the Plan, the following rules of procedure
    shall govern the Committee. A majority of the Committee shall
    constitute a quorum. The acts of a majority of the members
    present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts
    approved unanimously in writing by the members of the Committee
    in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Committee.
    Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely
    or act upon any report or other information furnished to that
    member by any officer or other employee of the Corporation or
    any Parent or Affiliate, the Corporation’s independent
    certified public accountants, or any executive compensation
    consultant or other professional retained by the Corporation to
    assist in the administration of the Plan.



 



    4.3 Authority of Committee.  Except as
    provided below, the Committee has the exclusive power, authority
    and discretion to:



 



    (a) Designate Participants;



 



    (b) Determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to
    each Participant;



 



    (c) Determine the number of Awards to be granted and the
    number of shares of Stock to which an Award will relate;



 



    (d) Determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted
    under the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise
    price, grant price or purchase price, any restrictions or
    limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture
    restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award,
    and accelerations or waivers thereof, based in each case on such
    considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion
    determines;



 



    (e) Accelerate the vesting or lapse of restrictions of any
    outstanding Award, based in each case on such considerations as
    the Committee in its sole discretion determines;



 



    (f) Determine whether, to what extent, and under what
    circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price
    of an Award may be paid in, cash, Stock, other Awards or other
    property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited or surrendered;

    (g) Prescribe the form of each Award Agreement, which need
    not be identical for each Participant, or amend any Award
    Agreement;



 



    (h) Decide all other matters that must be determined in
    connection with an Award;



 



    (i) Establish, adopt or revise any rules and regulations as

    Notwithstanding the foregoing authority, except as provided in
    or pursuant to Article 15, the Committee shall not
    authorize, generally or in specific cases only, for the benefit

    Option or the base price of a Stock Appreciation Right, or in
    the number of shares subject to an Option or Stock Appreciation
    Right granted hereunder by (i) cancellation of an
    outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right and a subsequent

    (ii) amendment to an outstanding Option or Stock
    Appreciation Right, (iii) substitution of an outstanding
    Option or Stock Appreciation Right or (iv) any other action
    that would be deemed to constitute a repricing of such an Award
    under applicable law, in each case, without prior approval of
    the Corporation’s stockholders.



 



    4.4 Delegation of Authority.  To the
    extent not prohibited by applicable laws, rules and regulations,
    the Board or the Committee may, from time to time, delegate some
    or all of its authority under the Plan to a subcommittee or
    subcommittees thereof or to one or more directors or executive
    officers of the Corporation as it deems appropriate under such
    conditions or limitations as it may set at the time of such
    delegation or thereafter, except that neither the Board nor the
    Committee may delegate its authority pursuant to Article 16
    to amend the Plan. For purposes of the Plan, references to the
    Committee shall be deemed to refer to any subcommittee,
    subcommittees, directors or executive officers to whom the Board
    or the Committee delegates authority pursuant to this
    Section 4.4.



 



    4.5 Decisions Binding.  The
    Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted
    under the Plan, any Award Agreement and all decisions and
    determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are
    final, binding and conclusive on all parties.



 




    ARTICLE 5

    



 




    SHARES
    SUBJECT TO THE PLAN



 



    5.1 Number of Shares.  Subject to
    adjustment as provided in Article 15, the aggregate number
    of shares of Stock reserved and available for Awards or which
    may be used to provide a basis of measurement for or to
    determine the value of an Award (such as with a Stock
    Appreciation Right or Performance Share Award) shall be
    15,600,000 shares (the “Maximum Number”). Not
    more than the Maximum Number of shares of Stock shall be granted
    in the form of Incentive Stock Options.



 



    5.2 Lapsed Awards.  To the fullest extent
    permissible under
    Rule 16b-3
    under the 1934 Act and Section 422 of the Code and any
    other applicable laws, rules and regulations, (i) if an
    Award is canceled, terminates, expires, is forfeited or lapses
    for any reason without having been exercised or settled, any
    shares of Stock subject to the Award will be added back into the
    Maximum Number and will again be available for the grant of an
    Award under the Plan and (ii) shares of Stock subject to
    SARs or other Awards settled in cash shall be added back into
    the Maximum Number and will be available for the grant of an
    Award under the Plan. For the sake of clarity, shares tendered
    or withheld to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding
    obligations arising in connection with the exercise or vesting
    of an Award (including in connection with a “net
    exercise” as contemplated by Section 7.1(c)) shall not
    be added back into the Maximum Number and shall not be available
    for further grant.

    distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in
    part, of authorized and unissued Stock, treasury Stock or Stock

    of shares of Stock with respect to one or more Options and/or
    SARs that may be granted during any one calendar year under the
    Plan to any one Participant shall be 412,500 (all of which may
    be granted as Incentive Stock Options); provided,
    however, that in connection with his or her initial
    employment with the Corporation, a Participant may be granted
    Options or SARs with respect to up to an additional
    412,500 shares of Stock (all of which may be granted as
    Incentive Stock Options), which shall not count against the
    foregoing annual limit. The maximum Fair Market Value (measured
    as of the date of grant) of any Awards other than Options and
    SARs that may be received by any one Participant (less any
    consideration paid by the Participant for such Award) during any
    one calendar year under the Plan shall be $5,000,000. The
    maximum number of shares of Stock that may be subject to one or
    more Performance Share Awards (or used to provide a basis of

    7.1 General.  The Committee is authorized
    to grant Options to Participants on the following terms and
    conditions:



 



    (a) Exercise Price.  The exercise price
    per share of Stock under an Option shall be determined by the
    Committee at the time of the grant but in no event shall the
    exercise price be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a
    share of Stock on the date of grant.



 



    (b) Time and Conditions of Exercise.  The
    Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option
    may be exercised in whole or in part, subject to
    Section 7.1(e) and 7.3. The Committee also shall determine
    the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be
    satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised. The
    Committee may waive any exercise provisions at any time in whole
    or in part based upon factors as the Committee may determine in
    its sole discretion so that the Option becomes exerciseable at
    an earlier date.



 



    (c) Payment.  Unless otherwise determined
    by the Committee, the exercise price of an Option may be paid
    (i) in cash, (ii) by actual delivery or attestation to
    ownership of freely transferable shares of stock already owned;
    (iii) by a combination of cash and shares of Stock equal in
    value to the exercise price or (iv) by such other means as
    the Committee, in its discretion, may authorize. In accordance
    with the rules and procedures authorized by the Committee for
    this purpose, an Option may, if the Committee so determines also
    be exercised through either or both of the following: (i) a
    “cashless exercise” procedure authorized by the
    Committee that permits Participants to exercise Options by
    delivering a properly executed exercise notice to the
    Corporation together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to
    a broker to deliver promptly to the Corporation the amount of
    sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay the exercise price and
    the amount of any required tax or other withholding obligations
    or (ii) a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to
    which the Corporation will reduce the number of shares of Stock
    issued upon

    exercise by that number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market
    Value equal to the aggregate exercise price.



 



    (d) Evidence of Grant.  All Options shall
    be evidenced by a written Award Agreement between the
    Corporation and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall
    include such provisions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be
    specified by the Committee.



 



    (e) Exercise Term.  In no event may any
    Option be exercisable for more than ten years from the date of
    its grant.



 



    7.2 Incentive Stock Options.  The terms of
    any Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan must comply
    with the following additional rules:



 



    (a) Lapse of Option.  An Incentive Stock
    Option shall lapse under the earliest of the following
    circumstances; provided, however, that the
    Committee may, prior to the lapse of the Incentive Stock Option
    under the circumstances described in paragraphs (3),
    (4) and (5) below, provide in writing that the Option
    will extend until a later date, but if an Option is exercised
    after the dates specified in paragraphs (3), (4) and
    (5) below, it will automatically become a Non-Qualified
    Stock Option:



 



    (1) The Incentive Stock Option shall lapse as of the option
    expiration date set forth in the Award Agreement.



 



    (2) The Incentive Stock Option shall lapse ten years after
    it is granted, unless an earlier time is set in the Award
    Agreement.



 



    (3) If the Participant terminates employment for any reason
    other than as provided in paragraph (4) or
    (5) below, the Incentive Stock Option shall lapse, unless
    it is previously exercised, three months after the
    Participant’s termination of employment; provided,
    however, that if the Participant’s employment is
    terminated by the Corporation for Cause, the Incentive Stock
    Option shall (to the extent not previously exercised) lapse
    immediately.



 



    (4) If the Participant terminates employment by reason of
    his Disability, the Incentive Stock Option shall lapse, unless
    it is previously exercised, one year after the
    Participant’s termination of employment.



 



    (5) If the Participant dies while employed, or during the
    three-month period described in paragraph (3) or
    during the one-year period described in
    paragraph (4) and before the Option otherwise lapses,
    the Option shall lapse one year after the Participant’s
    death. Upon the Participant’s death, any exercisable
    Incentive Stock Options may be exercised by the
    Participant’s beneficiary, determined in accordance with
    Section 14.5.



 



    Unless the exercisability of the Incentive Stock Option is
    accelerated as provided in Article 14, if a Participant
    exercises an Option after termination of employment, the Option
    may be exercised only with respect to the shares that were
    otherwise vested on the Participant’s termination of
    employment.



 



    (b) Individual Dollar Limitation.  The
    aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time an Award
    is made) of all shares of Stock with respect to which Incentive
    Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any
    calendar year may not exceed $100,000.00.



 



    (c) Ten Percent Owners.  No Incentive
    Stock Option shall be granted to any individual who, at the date
    of grant, owns stock possessing more than ten percent of the
    total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
    Corporation or any Parent or Affiliate unless the exercise price
    per share of such Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market
    Value per share of Stock at the date of grant and the Option
    expires no later than five years after the date of grant.



 



    (d) Expiration of Incentive Stock
    Options.  No Award of an Incentive Stock Option
    may be made pursuant to the Plan after the day immediately prior
    to the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.

    (e) Right to Exercise.  During a
    Participant’s lifetime, an Incentive Stock Option may be
    exercised only by the Participant or, in the case of the
    Participant’s Disability, by the Participant’s
    guardian or legal representative.



 



    (f) Directors.  The Committee may not
    grant an Incentive Stock Option to a non-employee director. The
    Committee may grant an Incentive Stock Option to a director who
    is also an employee of the Corporation or any Parent or
    Affiliate but only in that individual’s position as an
    employee and not as a director.



 



    7.3 Options Granted to Non-employee
    Directors.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options
    granted to Non-Employee Directors under this Article 7
    shall be subject to the following additional terms and
    conditions:



 



    (a) Lapse of Option.  An Option granted to
    a Non-Employee Director under this Article 7 shall lapse
    under the earliest of the following circumstances:



 



    (1) The Option shall lapse as of the option expiration date
    set forth in the Award Agreement.



 



    (2) If the Participant ceases to serve as a member of the
    Board for any reason other than as provided in the proviso to
    this paragraph (2) or in
    paragraph (3) below, the Option shall lapse, unless it
    is previously exercised, (A) in the case of Option grants
    made to Non-Employee Directors after January 27, 2006,
    three years after the Participant’s termination as a member
    of the Board and (B) in the case of Option grants made to
    Non-Employee Directors on or prior to January 27, 2006, on
    the later of
    (x) 51/2
    months following the Participant’s termination as a member
    of the Board of Directors or (y) December 31 of the
    year in which such termination of service occurs; provided,
    however, that if the Participant is removed for cause
    (determined in accordance with the Corporation’s bylaws, as
    amended from time to time), the Option shall (to the extent not
    previously exercised) lapse immediately.



 



    (3) If the Participant ceases to serve as a member of the
    Board by reason of his Disability or death, the Option shall
    lapse, unless it is previously exercised, (A) in the case
    of Option grants made to Non-Employee Directors after
    January 27, 2006, three years after the Participant’s
    termination as a member of the Board and (B) in the case of
    Option grants made to Non-Employee Directors on or prior to
    January 27, 2006,
    141/2
    months following the Participant’s termination as a member
    of the Board of Directors. If the Participant dies during the
    post termination exercise period specified above in
    paragraph (2) or in paragraph (3) and before
    the Option otherwise lapses, the Option shall lapse one year
    after the Participant’s death. Upon the Participant’s
    death, any exercisable Options may be exercised by the
    Participant’s beneficiary, determined in accordance with
    Section 14.5.



 



    If a Participant exercises Options after termination of his
    service on the Board, he may exercise the Options only with
    respect to the shares that were otherwise exercisable on the
    date of termination of his service on the Board. Such exercise
    otherwise shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this
    Article 7.



 



    (b) Acceleration Upon Change of
    Control.  Notwithstanding Section 7.1(b), in
    the event of a Change of Control, each Option granted to a
    Non-Employee Director under this Article 7 that is then
    outstanding immediately prior to such Change of Control shall
    become immediately vested and exercisable in full on the date of
    such Change of Control.

    ARTICLE 13

    



 




    ANNUAL
    AWARDS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS



 



    13.1 Grant of Options.  Each Non-Employee
    Director who is serving in such capacity as of January 1 of each
    year that the Plan is in effect shall be granted a Non-Qualified
    Option to purchase 13,200 shares of Stock, subject to
    adjustment as provided in Article 15. In addition, each
    Non-Employee Director who is serving in such capacity as of the
    effective date of the Initial Public Offering shall be granted a
    Non-Qualified Stock Option to purchase 13,200 shares
    of Stock on such date. Each such date that Options are to be
    granted under this Article 13 is referred to hereinafter as
    a “Grant Date”. In addition, the Committee may, in its
    sole discretion, permit or require each Non-Employee Director to
    receive all or any portion of his or her compensation for
    services as a director in the form of an Award under the Plan
    with such term and conditions as may be determined by the
    Committee in its sole discretion.



 



    If on any Grant Date, shares of Stock are not available under
    the Plan to grant to Non-Employee Directors the full amount of a
    grant contemplated by the immediately preceding paragraph, then
    each Non-Employee Director shall receive an Option (a
    “Reduced Grant”) to purchase shares of Stock in an
    amount




 








    WebMD 2005 Long-Term
    Incentive Plan —

    As Amended and Restated on October 23, 2009

    



 



    Page 11









 







    equal to the number of shares of Stock then available under the
    Plan divided by the number of Non-Employee Directors as of the
    applicable Grant Date. Fractional shares shall be ignored and
    not granted.



 



    If a Reduced Grant has been made and, thereafter, during the
    term of the Plan, additional shares of Stock become available
    for grant, then each person who was a Non-Employee Director both
    on the Grant Date on which the Reduced Grant was made and on the
    date additional shares of Stock become available (a
    “Continuing Non-Employee Director”) shall receive an
    additional Option to purchase shares of Stock. The number of
    newly available shares shall be divided equally among the
    Options granted to the Continuing Non-Employee Directors;
    provided, however, that the aggregate number of
    shares of Stock subject to a Continuing Non-Employee
    Director’s additional Option plus any prior Reduced Grant
    to the Continuing Non-Employee Director on the applicable Grant
    Date shall not exceed 13,200 shares (subject to adjustment
    pursuant to Article 15). If more than one Reduced Grant has
    been made, available Options shall be granted beginning with the
    earliest such Grant Date.



 



    13.2 Option Price.  The option price for
    each Option granted under this Article 13 shall be the Fair
    Market Value on the date of grant of the Option.



 



    13.3 Term.  Each Option granted under this
    Article 13 shall, to the extent not previously exercised,
    terminate and expire on the date ten (10) years after the
    date of grant of the Option, unless earlier terminated as
    provided in Section 13.4.



 



    13.4 Lapse of Option.  An Option granted
    under this Article 13 shall not automatically lapse by
    reason of the Participant ceasing to qualify as a Non-Employee
    Director but remaining as a member of the Board. An Option
    granted under this Article 13 shall lapse under the
    earliest of the following circumstances:



 



    (1) The Option shall lapse ten years after it is granted.



 



    (2) If the Participant ceases to serve as a member of the
    Board for any reason other than as provided in the proviso to
    this paragraph (2) or paragraph (3) below,
    the Option shall lapse, unless it is previously exercised,
    (A) in the case of Option grants made to Non-Employee
    Directors after January 27, 2006, three years after the
    Participant’s termination as a member of the Board and
    (B) in the case of Option grants made to Non-Employee
    Directors on or prior to January 27, 2006, on the later of
    (x) 51/2
    months following the Participant’s termination as a member
    of the Board of Directors or (y) December 31 of the
    year in which such termination of service occurs; provided,
    however, that if the Participant is removed for cause
    (determined in accordance with the Corporation’s bylaws, as
    amended from time to time), the Option shall (to the extent not
    previously exercised) lapse immediately.



 



    (3) If the Participant ceases to serve as a member of the
    Board by reason of his Disability or death, the Option shall
    lapse, unless it is previously exercised, (A) in the case
    of Option grants made to Non-Employee Directors after
    January 27, 2006, three years after the Participant’s
    termination as a member of the Board and (B) in the case of
    Option grants made to Non-Employee Directors on or prior to
    January 27, 2006,
    141/2
    months following the Participant’s termination as a member
    of the Board of Directors.



 



    (4) If the Participant dies during the post termination
    exercise period specified above in paragraph (2) or in
    paragraph (3) and before the Option otherwise lapses,
    the Option shall lapse one year after the Participant’s
    death. Upon the Participant’s death, any exercisable
    Options may be exercised by the Participant’s beneficiary,
    determined in accordance with Section 14.5.



 



    If a Participant exercises Options after termination of his or
    her service on the Board, he or she may exercise the Options
    only with respect to the shares that were otherwise exercisable
    on the date of termination of his service on the Board. Such
    exercise otherwise shall be subject to the terms and conditions
    of this Article 13.

    13.5 Cancellation of Options.  Upon a
    Participant’s termination of service for any reason other
    than death or Disability, all Options that have not vested in
    accordance with the Plan shall be cancelled immediately.



 



    13.6 Exercisability.  Subject to
    Section 13.7, each Option grant under this Article 13
    shall be exercisable as to twenty-five percent (25%) of the
    Option shares on each of the first, second, third and fourth
    anniversaries of the Grant Date, such that the Options will be
    fully exercisable after four years from the Grant Date.



 



    13.7 Acceleration Upon Change of
    Control.  Notwithstanding Section 13.6, in
    the event of a Change of Control, each Option granted under this
    Article 13 that is then outstanding immediately prior to
    such Change of Control shall become immediately exercisable in
    full on the date of such Change in Control.



 



    13.8 Termination of Article 13.  No
    Options shall be granted under this Article 13 after
    January 1, 2015.



 



    13.9 Non-exclusivity.  Nothing in this
    Article 13 shall prohibit the Committee from making
    discretionary Awards to Non-Employee Directors pursuant to the
    other provisions of the Plan before or after January 1,
    2015. Options granted pursuant to this Article 13 shall be
    governed by the provisions of this Article 13 and by other
    provisions of the Plan to the extent not inconsistent with the
    provisions of this Article 13.



 




    ARTICLE 14

    



 




    PROVISIONS
    APPLICABLE TO AWARDS



 



    14.1 Stand-alone, Tandem, and Substitute
    Awards.  Awards granted under the Plan may, in the
    discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in
    addition to, in tandem with, (subject to the last sentence of
    Section 4.3) or in substitution for, any other Award
    granted under the Plan. If an Award is granted in substitution
    for another Award, the Committee may require the surrender of
    such other Award in consideration of the grant of the new Award.
    Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may
    be granted either at the same time as or at a different time
    from the grant of such other Awards.



 



    14.2 Term of Award.  The term of each
    Award shall be for the period as determined by the Committee,
    provided that in no event shall the term of any Incentive
    Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem
    with the Incentive Stock Option exceed a period of ten years
    from the date of its grant (or, if Section 7.2(c) applies,
    five years from the date of its grant).



 



    14.3 Form of Payment for
    Awards.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and any
    applicable law or Award Agreement, payments or transfers to be
    made by the Corporation or a Parent or Affiliate on the grant or
    exercise of an Award may be made in such form as the Committee
    determines at or after the time of grant, including, without
    limitation, cash, Stock, other Awards or other property, or any
    combination thereof, and may be made in a single payment or
    transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in each case
    determined in accordance with rules adopted by, and at the
    discretion of, the Committee.



 



    14.4 Limits on Transfer.  No right or
    interest of a Participant in any unexercised or restricted Award
    may be pledged, encumbered or hypothecated to or in favor of any
    party other than the Corporation or a Parent or Affiliate, or
    shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such
    Participant to any other party other than the Corporation or a
    Parent or Affiliate. No unexercised or restricted Award shall be
    assignable or transferable by a Participant other than by will
    or the laws of descent and distribution or, except in the case
    of an Incentive Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic relations
    order that would satisfy Section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code
    if such Section applied to an Award under the Plan;
    provided, however, that the Committee may (but
    need not) permit other transfers where the Committee concludes
    that such transferability (i) does not result in
    accelerated taxation or other adverse tax consequences,
    (ii) does not cause any Option intended to be an Incentive
    Stock Option to fail to be described in Section 422(b) of
    the Code, and (iii) is otherwise appropriate and desirable,
    taking into account any factors deemed relevant, including,
    without limitation, state or federal tax or securities laws
    applicable to transferable Awards. In furtherance of the
    foregoing, with the consent of

    the Committee or its designee, a Participant may transfer Awards
    to such Participant’s family members or trusts or other
    entities in which the Participant or his or her family members
    hold 50% or more of the voting or beneficial ownership interest
    in such trust or entity for estate planning or other tax
    purpose. Any such permitted transfer shall be subject to such
    conditions as the Committee or its designee may impose and
    compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws.



 



    14.5 Beneficiaries.  Notwithstanding
    Section 14.4, a Participant may, in the manner determined
    by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights
    of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect
    to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary,
    legal guardian, legal representative or other person claiming
    any rights under the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions
    of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the
    Participant, except to the extent the Plan and such Award
    Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions
    deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If no
    beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant,
    payment shall be made to the Participant’s estate. Subject
    to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or
    revoked by a Participant at any time, provided the change
    or revocation is filed with the Committee.



 



    14.6 Stock Certificates.  All Stock
    issuable under the Plan is subject to any stop-transfer orders
    and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or
    advisable to comply with federal or state securities laws, rules
    and regulations and the rules of any national securities
    exchange or automated quotation system on which the Stock is
    listed, quoted or traded. The Committee may place legends on any
    Stock certificate or issue instructions to the transfer agent to
    reference restrictions applicable to the Stock.



 



    14.7 Acceleration Upon Death or
    Disability.  Unless otherwise set forth in an
    Award Agreement, upon the Participant’s death or Disability
    during his employment or service as a director, all outstanding
    Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Awards and
    other Awards in the nature of rights that may be exercised shall
    become fully exercisable and all restrictions on outstanding
    Awards shall lapse. Any Option or Stock Appreciation Rights
    Awards shall thereafter continue or lapse in accordance with the
    other provisions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. To the
    extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to
    exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Section 7.2(b),
    the excess Options shall be deemed to be Non-Qualified Stock
    Options.



 



    14.8 Acceleration of Vesting and Lapse of
    Restrictions.  Subject to Sections 7.3(b) and
    13.7, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, at any time
    (including, without limitation, prior to, coincident with or
    subsequent to a Change of Control) determine that (a) all
    or a portion of a Participant’s Options, Stock Appreciation
    Rights and other Awards in the nature of rights that may be
    exercised shall become fully or partially exercisable, and/or
    (b) all or a part of the restrictions on all or a portion
    of the outstanding Awards shall lapse, in each case, as of such
    date as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, declare;
    provided, however, that, with respect to Awards
    that are subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Committee
    shall not have the authority to accelerate or postpone the
    timing of payment or settlement of an Award in a manner that
    would cause such Award to become subject to the interest and
    penalty provisions under Section 409A of the Code. The
    Committee may discriminate among Participants and among Awards
    granted to a Participant in exercising its discretion pursuant
    to this Section 14.8. All Awards made to Non-Employee
    Directors shall become fully vested and, in the case of Options,
    Stock Appreciation Rights and other Awards in the nature of
    rights that may be exercised, fully exercisable in the event of
    the occurrence of a Change of Control as of the date of such
    Change of Control.



 



    14.9 Other Adjustments.  If (i) an
    Award is accelerated under Sections 7.3(b), 13.7 and/or
    14.8 or (ii) a Change of Control occurs (regardless or
    whether acceleration under Sections 7.3(b), 13.7 and/or
    14.8 occurs), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide
    (a) that the Award will expire after a designated period of
    time after such acceleration or Change of Control, as
    applicable, to the extent not then exercised, (b) that the
    Award will be settled in cash rather than Stock, (c) that
    the Award will be assumed by another party to a transaction
    giving rise to the acceleration or a party to the Change of
    Control, (d) that the Award will otherwise be equitably
    converted or adjusted in connection with such transaction or
    Change of Control, or

    Incentive Plan —

    As Amended and Restated on October 23, 2009

    (e) any combination of the foregoing. The Committee’s
    determination need not be uniform and may be different for
    different Participants whether or not such Participants are
    similarly situated; provided, however, that, with
    respect to Awards that are subject to Section 409A of the
    Code, the Committee shall not have the authority to accelerate
    or postpone the timing of payment or settlement of an Award in a
    manner that would cause such Award to become subject to the
    interest and penalty provisions under Section 409A of the
    Code.



 



    14.10 Performance Goals.  In order to
    preserve the deductibility of an Award under Section 162(m)
    of the Code, the Committee may determine that any Award granted
    pursuant to this Plan to a Participant that is or is expected to
    become a Covered Employee shall be determined solely on the
    basis of (a) the achievement by the Corporation or
    Subsidiary of a specified target return, or target growth in
    return, on equity or assets, (b) the Corporation’s
    stock price, (c) the Corporation’s total shareholder
    return (stock price appreciation plus reinvested dividends)
    relative to a defined comparison group or target over a specific
    performance period, (d) the achievement by the Corporation
    or a Parent or Subsidiary, or a business unit of any such
    entity, of a specified target, or target growth in, net income,
    revenues, earnings per share, earnings before income and taxes,
    and earnings before income, taxes, depreciation and
    amortization, or (e) any combination of the goals set forth
    in (a) through (d) above. If an Award is made on such
    basis, the Committee shall establish goals prior to the
    beginning of the period for which such performance goal relates
    (or such later date as may be permitted under
    Section 162(m) of the Code), and the Committee has the
    right for any reason to reduce (but not increase) the Award,
    notwithstanding the achievement of a specified goal. Any payment
    of an Award granted with performance goals shall be conditioned
    on the written certification of the Committee in each case that
    the performance goals and any other material conditions were
    satisfied.



 



    14.11 Termination of Employment.  Whether
    military, government or other service or other leave of absence
    shall constitute a termination of employment shall be determined
    in each case by the Committee at its discretion, and any
    determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive. A
    termination of employment shall not occur (i) in a
    circumstance in which a Participant transfers from the
    Corporation to one of its Parents or Subsidiaries, transfers
    from a Parent or Affiliate to the Corporation, or transfers from
    one Parent or Affiliate to another Parent or Affiliate, or
    (ii) in the discretion of the Committee as specified at or
    prior to such occurrence, in the case of a split-off, spin-off,
    sale or other disposition of the Participant’s employer
    from the Corporation or any Parent or Affiliate. To the extent
    that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to extend
    beyond three months from the date a Participant is deemed to be
    an employee of the Corporation, a Parent or Affiliate for
    purposes of Section 424(f) of the Code, the Options held by
    such Participant shall be deemed to be Non-Qualified Stock
    Options.



 



    14.12 Loan Provisions.  Subject to
    applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without
    limitation, Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,
    with the consent of the Committee, the Corporation may make,
    guarantee or arrange for a loan or loans to a Participant with
    respect to the exercise of any Option granted under this Plan
    and/or with respect to the payment of the purchase price, if
    any, of any Award granted hereunder and/or with respect to the
    payment by the Participant of any or all federal and/or state
    income taxes due on account of the granting or exercise of any
    Award hereunder. The Committee shall have full authority to
    decide whether to make a loan or loans hereunder and to
    determine the amount, terms and provisions of any such loan(s),
    including the interest rate to be charged in respect of any such
    loan(s), whether the loan(s) are to be made with or without
    recourse against the borrower, the collateral or other security,
    if any, securing the repayment of the loan(s), the terms on
    which the loan(s) are to be repaid and the conditions, if any,
    under which the loan(s) may be forgiven.

    15.1 General.  Upon or in contemplation of
    (a) any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split
    (including a stock split in the form of a stock dividend) or
    reverse stock split, (b) any merger, combination,
    consolidation, or other reorganization, (c) any spin-off,
    split-up, or similar extraordinary dividend distribution

    in respect of the Stock (whether in the form of securities or
    property), (d) any exchange of Stock or other securities of
    the Corporation, or any similar, unusual or extraordinary
    corporate transaction in respect of the Stock, or (e) a
    sale of all or substantially all the business or assets of the
    Corporation as an entirety, then the Committee shall, in such
    manner, to such extent (if any) and at such time as it deems
    appropriate and equitable in the circumstances in order to
    preserve, but not increase, the benefits or potential benefits
    intended to be made available under the Plan or an outstanding
    Award:



 



    (i) proportionately adjust any or all of (A) the
    number and type of shares of Stock (or other securities) that
    thereafter may be made the subject of Awards (including the
    specific share limits, maximums and numbers of shares set forth
    elsewhere in this Plan), (B) the number, amount and type of
    shares of Stock (or other securities or property) subject to any
    or all outstanding Awards, (C) the grant, purchase, or
    exercise price (which term includes the base price of any SAR or
    similar right) of any or all outstanding Awards, (D) the
    securities, cash or other property deliverable upon exercise or
    payment of any outstanding Awards, or (E) the performance
    standards applicable to any outstanding Awards, or



 



    (ii) make provision for a cash payment or for the
    assumption, substitution or exchange of any or all outstanding
    share-based Awards or the cash, securities or property
    deliverable to the holder of any or all outstanding share-based
    Awards, based upon the distribution or consideration payable to
    holders of the Stock upon or in respect of such event.



 



    The Committee may adopt such valuation methodologies for
    outstanding Awards as it deems reasonable in the event of a cash
    or property settlement and, in the case of Options, SARs or
    similar rights, but without limitation on other methodologies,
    may base such settlement solely upon the excess if any of the
    per share amount payable upon or in respect of such event over
    the exercise or base price of the Award. With respect to any
    Award of an Incentive Stock Option, the Committee may make such
    an adjustment that causes the option to cease to qualify as an
    Incentive Stock Option without the consent of the affected
    Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent
    possible, all adjustments shall be made in a manner to avoid:
    (i) an Award that is not already subject to
    Section 409A of the Code from becoming subject to
    Section 409A of the Code; and (ii) the imposition of
    penalties pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.



 



    In any of such events, the Committee may take such action prior
    to such event to the extent that the Committee deems the action
    necessary to permit the Participant to realize the benefits
    intended to be conveyed with respect to the underlying shares in
    the same manner as is or will be available to stockholders
    generally. In the case of any stock split or reverse stock
    split, if no action is taken by the Committee, the proportionate
    adjustments contemplated by clause (i) above shall
    nevertheless be made.



 




    ARTICLE 16

    



 




    AMENDMENT,
    MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION



 



    16.1 Amendment, Modification and
    Termination.  The Board or the Committee may, at
    any time and from time to time, amend, modify or terminate the
    Plan; provided, however, that the Board or the Committee may
    condition any amendment or modification on the approval of
    shareholders of the Corporation if such approval is necessary or
    deemed advisable with respect to tax, securities or other
    applicable laws, policies or regulations.



 



    16.2 Awards Previously Granted.  At any
    time and from time to time, but subject to Section 4.3, the
    Committee may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award
    or Award Agreement without approval of the Participant;
    provided, however, that, subject to the terms of the applicable
    Award Agreement, such amendment, modification or termination
    shall not, without the Participant’s consent, reduce or
    diminish the value of such Award determined as if the Award had
    been exercised, vested, cashed in or otherwise settled on the
    date of such amendment or termination; provided further,
    however, that the original term of any Option may not be
    extended. No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan
    shall adversely affect any Award previously granted under the
    Plan, without the written consent of the Participant.
    Notwithstanding any

    provision herein to the contrary, the Committee shall have broad
    authority to amend the Plan or any outstanding Award under the
    Plan without approval of the Participant to the extent necessary
    or desirable (i) to comply with, or take into account
    changes in or interpretations of, applicable tax laws,
    securities laws, accounting rules and other applicable laws,
    rules and regulations or (ii) to ensure that an Award is
    not subject to interest and penalties under Section 409A of
    the Code.



 




    ARTICLE 17

    



 




    GENERAL
    PROVISIONS



 



    17.1 No Rights to Awards.  No Participant
    or any eligible participant shall have any claim to be granted
    any Award under the Plan, and neither the Corporation nor the
    Committee is obligated to treat Participants or eligible
    participants uniformly.



 



    17.2 No Stockholder Rights.  No Award
    gives the Participant any of the rights of a shareholder of the
    Corporation unless and until shares of Stock are in fact issued
    to such person in connection with the exercise, payment or
    settlement of such Award.



 



    17.3 Withholding.  The Corporation or any
    Subsidiary, Parent or Affiliate shall have the authority and the
    right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit
    to the Corporation, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal,
    state, local and other taxes (including the Participant’s
    FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to
    any taxable event arising as a result of the Plan. With respect
    to withholding required upon any taxable event under the Plan,
    the Committee may, at the time the Award is granted or
    thereafter, require or permit that any such withholding
    requirement be satisfied, in whole or in part, by
    (i) withholding from the Award shares of Stock or
    (ii) delivering shares of Stock that are already owned,
    having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to
    the minimum amount (and not any greater amount) required to be
    withheld for tax purposes, all in accordance with such
    procedures as the Committee establishes. The Corporation or any
    Subsidiary, Parent or Affiliate, as appropriate, shall also have
    the right to deduct from all cash payments made to a Participant
    (whether or not such payment is made in connection with an
    Award) any applicable taxes required to be withheld with respect
    to such payments.



 



    17.4 No Right to Continued
    Service.  Nothing in the Plan or any Award
    Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of
    the Corporation or any Parent or Affiliate to terminate any
    Participant’s employment or status as an officer, director
    or consultant at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any
    right to continue as an employee, officer, director or
    consultant of the Corporation or any Parent or Affiliate. In its
    sole discretion, the Board or the Committee may authorize the
    creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations
    created under the Plan to deliver shares of Stock with respect
    to awards hereunder.



 



    17.5 Unfunded Status of Awards.  The Plan
    is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive and
    deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made
    to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the
    Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any
    rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the
    Corporation or any Parent or Affiliate.



 



    17.6 Indemnification.  To the extent
    allowable under applicable law, each member of the Committee
    shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation from
    any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be imposed upon or
    reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or
    resulting from any claim, action, suit or proceeding to which
    such member may be a party or in which he may be involved by
    reason of any action or failure to act under the Plan and
    against and from any and all amounts paid by such member in
    satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit or proceeding
    against him; provided such member shall give the Corporation an
    opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same
    before such member undertakes to handle and defend it on his or
    her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not
    be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which
    such persons may be entitled under the Corporation’s
    Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or
    otherwise, or any power that the Corporation may have to
    indemnify them or hold such persons harmless.

    17.7 Relationship to Other Benefits.  No
    Award shall constitute salary, recurrent compensation or
    contractual compensation for the year of grant, any later year
    or any other period of time. No payment under the Plan shall be
    taken into account in determining any benefits under any
    pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance,
    welfare or other benefit plan of the Corporation or any Parent
    or Affiliate unless provided otherwise in such other plan.



 



    17.8 Expenses; Application of Funds.  The
    expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the
    Corporation and its Parents or Subsidiaries. The proceeds
    received by the Corporation from the sale of shares of Stock
    pursuant to Awards will be used for general corporate purposes.



 



    17.9 Titles and Headings.  The titles and
    headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of
    reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of
    the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.



 



    17.10 Gender and Number.  Except where
    otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used
    herein also shall include the feminine; the plural shall include
    the singular and the singular shall include the plural.



 



    17.11 Fractional Shares.  No fractional
    shares of Stock shall be issued and the Committee shall
    determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in
    lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares
    shall be eliminated by rounding up or down.



 



    17.12 Government and Other
    Regulations.  The obligation of the Corporation to
    make payment of awards in Stock or otherwise shall be subject to
    all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such
    approvals by government agencies as may be required. To the
    extent that Awards under the Plan are awarded to individuals who
    are domiciled or resident outside of the United States or to
    persons who are domiciled or resident in the United States but
    who are subject to the tax laws of a jurisdiction outside of the
    United States, the Committee may adjust the terms of the Awards
    granted hereunder to such person (i) to comply with the
    laws of such jurisdiction and (ii) to avoid adverse tax
    consequences relating to an Award. The authority granted under
    the previous sentence shall include the discretion for the
    Committee to adopt, on behalf of the Corporation, one or more
    sub-plans applicable to separate classes of Participants who are
    subject to the laws of jurisdictions outside of the United
    States.



 



    17.13 Securities Law Restrictions.  An
    Award may not be exercised or settled and no shares of Stock may
    be issued in connection with an Award unless the issuance of
    such shares of Stock has been registered under the 1933 Act
    and qualified under applicable state “blue sky” laws
    and any applicable foreign securities laws, or the Corporation
    has determined that an exemption from registration and from
    qualification under such state “blue sky” laws is
    available. The Corporation shall be under no obligation to
    register under the 1933 Act, or any state securities act,
    any of the shares of Stock issued in connection with the Plan.
    The shares issued in connection with the Plan may in certain
    circumstances be exempt from registration under the
    1933 Act, and the Corporation may restrict the transfer of
    such shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the
    availability of any such exemption. The Committee may require
    each Participant purchasing or acquiring shares of Stock
    pursuant to an Award under the Plan to represent to and agree
    with the Corporation in writing that such Participant is
    acquiring the shares of Stock for investment purposes and not
    with a view to the distribution thereof. All certificates for
    shares of Stock delivered under the Plan shall be subject to
    such stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the
    Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and
    other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
    any exchange upon which the Stock is then listed, and any
    applicable securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend
    or legends to be put on any such certificates to make
    appropriate reference to such restrictions.



 



    17.14 Satisfaction of
    Obligations.  Subject to applicable law, the
    Corporation may apply any cash, shares of Stock, securities or
    other consideration received upon exercise or settlement of an
    Award to any obligations a Participant owes to the Corporation
    and its Parents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates in connection with




 








    WebMD 2005 Long-Term
    Incentive Plan —

    As Amended and Restated on October 23, 2009

    



 



    Page 18









 







    the Plan or otherwise, including, without limitation, any tax
    obligations or obligations under a currency facility established
    in connection with the Plan.



 



    17.15 Section 409A of the
    Code.  Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of
    the Plan or an Award Agreement, if any provision of the Plan or
    an Award Agreement contravenes the requirements of any
    regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated under
    Section 409A of the Code or could cause an Award to be
    subject to additional taxes, accelerated taxation, interest
    and/or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, such
    provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be modified
    to maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original
    intent of the applicable provision without violating the
    provisions of Section 409A of the Code. Moreover, any
    discretionary authority that the Board or the Committee may have
    pursuant to the Plan shall not be applicable to an Award that is
    subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent such
    discretionary authority will contravene Section 409A of the
    Code or the Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder.



 



    17.16 Governing Law.  To the extent not
    governed by federal law, the Plan and all Award Agreements shall
    be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the
    State of Delaware.



 



    17.17 Additional Provisions.  Each Award
    Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions as the
    Board or the Committee may determine, provided that such
    other terms and conditions are not inconsistent with the
    provisions of this Plan. In the event of any conflict or
    inconsistency between the Plan and an Award Agreement, the Plan
    shall govern and the Award Agreement shall be interpreted to
    minimize or eliminate such conflict or inconsistency. Nothing
    contained in the Plan shall be construed: (a) to prevent the
    Company or any Subsidiary from taking any corporate action,
    whether or not it would have an adverse effect on any Awards
    made under the Plan; or (b) to provide any rights, not otherwise
    provided under applicable law, to any participant, beneficiary
    or other person with respect to the taking of any corporate
    action by the Company or any Subsidiary.
