			Section 1.    Grant of Options.
		

		
			(a)    Confirmation of Grant.  The Company hereby evidences and confirms, effective as of the date hereof, its grant to the Associate of Options to purchase the number of shares of Company Common Stock specified on the signature page hereof.  The Options are not intended to be Incentive Stock Options.  This Agreement is entered into pursuant to, and the terms of the Options are subject to, the terms of the Plan.  If there is any inconsistency between this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern.
		

		
			(b)    Option Price.  Each share covered by an Option shall have the Option Price specified on the signature page hereof.
		

		
			Section 2.    Vesting and Exercisability.
		

		
			(a)    Vesting Schedule. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or Section 2(b) of this Agreement, the Options shall become vested in four equal annual installments on each of the first through fourth anniversaries of February 18, 2018, subject to the continuous employment of the Associate with the Company through each applicable vesting date; provided that if, subject to the Associate’s compliance with his obligations under Section 6(g) of the Employment Agreement, the Associate’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of the Associate’s death or Disability (as defined in the Employment Agreement), any Options held by the Associate shall immediately vest as of the effective date of such termination. 
		

		
			(b)    Discretionary Acceleration.  The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the vesting or exercisability of all or a portion of the Options, at any time and from time to time.
		

		
			(c)    Exercise.

			Section 3.    Termination of Options.
		

		
			(a)    Normal Termination Date.  Unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 3(b) or the Plan, the Options shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Normal Termination Date”), if not exercised prior to such date.
		

		
			(b)    Early Termination.  If the Associate’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason, any Options held by the Associate that have not vested before the effective date of such termination of employment (determined without regard to any statutory or deemed or express contractual notice period) or that do not become vested on such date in accordance with Section 2 shall terminate immediately upon such termination of employment (determined without regard to any statutory or deemed or express contractual notice period) and, if the Associate’s employment is terminated for Cause, all Options (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall automatically terminate immediately upon such termination.  All vested Options held by the Associate following the effective date of a termination of employment shall remain exercisable until the first to occur of (i) the one-year anniversary in the case of a termination by reason of the Associate’s death or Disability or a retirement from active service on or after the Associate reaches normal retirement age, or in the event of any other termination of employment, the three-month anniversary of the effective date of the Associate’s termination of employment (determined without regard to any deemed or express statutory or contractual notice period), (ii) the Normal Termination Date or (iii) the cancellation of the Options pursuant to Section 5(a), and if not exercised within such period the Options shall automatically terminate upon the expiration of such period.
		

		
			Section 4.    Manner of Exercise.  Subject to such reasonable administrative regulations as the Administrator may adopt from time to time, the exercise of vested Options by the Associate shall be pursuant to procedures set forth in the Plan or established by the Administrator from time to time and shall include the Associate specifying the proposed date on which the Associate desires to exercise a vested Option (the “Exercise Date”), the number of whole shares with respect to which the Options are being exercised (the “Exercise Shares”) and the aggregate Option Price for such Exercise Shares (the “Exercise Price”) or such other or different requirements as may be imposed by the Company.  Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, (i) on or before the Exercise Date the Associate shall deliver to the Company full payment for the Exercise Shares in United States dollars in cash, or cash equivalents satisfactory to the Company, in an amount equal to the Exercise Price plus any required withholding taxes or other similar taxes, charges or fees (including, if available, pursuant to a broker-assisted cashless exercise program established by the Company whereby the Associate may exercise vested Options by an exercise-and-sell procedure in which the Exercise Price (together with any required withholding taxes or other similar taxes, charges or fees) is obtained from the sale of shares in the public market) and (ii) the Company shall register the issuance of the Exercise Shares on its records (or direct such issuance to be registered by the Company’s transfer agent).  The Company may require the Associate to furnish or execute such other documents as the Company shall reasonably deem necessary (i) to evidence such exercise or (ii) to comply with or satisfy the requirements of the Securities Act, applicable state or non‐U.S. securities laws or any other law.

			Section 5.    Change in Control; Impact of Spin-Off.
		

		
			(a)    Vesting and Cancellation.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 5(b), in the event of a Change in Control, all then-outstanding Options (whether vested or unvested) shall be canceled in exchange for a payment having a value equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the product of the Change in Control Price multiplied by the aggregate number of shares covered by all such Options immediately prior to the Change in Control over (ii) the aggregate Option Price for all such shares, to be paid as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than 30 days following the Change in Control.
		

		
			(b)    Alternative Award.  Notwithstanding Section 5(a), no cancellation, termination, or settlement or other payment shall occur with respect to any Option if the Administrator reasonably determines prior to the Change in Control that the Associate shall receive an Alternative Award meeting the requirements of the Plan; provided,  however, that if this Section 5(b) becomes operative, but the Associate’s employment is terminate by the Company without Cause or the Associate resigns with Good Reason and any such termination occurs between the date a definitive agreement is signed by the Company contemplating transactions which, if consummated, would result in a Change in Control and the date that is twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control, all then outstanding unvested Options shall become immediately vested and exercisable.
		

		
			(c)    Impact of Spin-Off.  Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence of the completion of the spin-off of AHS Holding Company, Inc. (“AHS”) by the Company (the “Spin-Off”), the Associate’s Options shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 4.3 of the Plan such that, upon completion of the Spin-Off, the Associate shall be entitled to an adjusted Award which relates solely to: (i) if, on and immediately following the Spin-Off, the Associate remains employed with the Company (or any Subsidiary thereof following the Spin-Off), the securities of the Company; or (ii) if the Associate, immediately following the Spin-Off, is employed with AHS or any Subsidiary thereof, the securities of AHS.
		

		
			Section 6.    Miscellaneous.
		

		
			(a)    Withholding.  In connection with the exercise of any of the Options as provided in this Award Agreement, the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may require the Associate to remit to the Company an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy any applicable Withholding Taxes that may arise in connection therewith, in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.11 of the Plan; provided, however, that if at such time of exercise, the Associate is prohibited from trading or otherwise selling Shares due to the application of any trading policy of the Company or applicable law, the Company shall withhold Shares that would otherwise be issued to the Associate pursuant to Section 4 above to satisfy the Withholding Taxes, in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.11 that apply to such net settlement of Withholding Taxes.
		

		
			(b)    Incorporation of Forfeiture Provisions.  The Associate acknowledges and agrees that, pursuant to the Plan, he or she shall be subject to the Company’s Clawback Policy and any generally applicable disgorgement or forfeiture provisions set forth in Article XIII of the Plan as of the date of this Agreement or as required by applicable law after the date of this Agreement.
