AMENDMENT NO. 2010-01 TO 
 MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT 
 This Amendment Number 2010-01
(“Amendment 2010-01”), effective as of April 15, 2010 (the “Amendment 2010-01 Effective Date”), is between Health Net, Inc. (“Health Net”), and
Cognizant Technology Solutions U.S. Corporation (“Supplier”) (each, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”). This Amendment 2010-01

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, agreements and other undertakings set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions. Defined terms used in this Amendment 2010-01 shall have the same
meaning as in the Agreement unless otherwise specifically defined herein. 
 2. Voided Change Notice. Change Notice 20100037 is deemed void and
of no effect.

which is attached and incorporated into this Amendment.  
 4. Except as amended and modified by this Amendment, all of the terms and
conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the exhibits to Schedule B remain unchanged by, and are not attached to, this Amendment. This Amendment 2010-01 may not be modified except in writing
signed by both parties hereto. This Amendment, the Agreement and exhibits and schedules thereto constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter contained therein and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous
agreements between the parties, whether oral or written, concerning the subject matter contained herein. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
the parties hereto by their duly authorized representatives executed this Amendment 2010-01 to be effective as of the Amendment 2010-01 Effective Date.

 SCHEDULE B 
 SERVICE LEVELS 
  

	1	INTRODUCTION 

 This Schedule B sets forth
the Service Levels that Supplier is required to meet or exceed in performing certain of the Services during the Term. This Schedule also describes (a) the methodology for calculating Service Level Credits that will be provided to Health Net by
Supplier if Supplier fails to meet a Critical Service Level, and (b) the process the Parties will follow to add, modify or delete Service Levels during the Term. 
  

	2	DEFINITIONS 

  

	2.1	Certain Definitions 

  

	 	(a)	“Amount at Risk” has the meaning given in Section 6.2 of the Terms and Conditions. 


 

	 	(b)	“Business Days” mean Monday through Friday (except holidays on which the offices of Health Net, as applicable, are not open for regular
business). Where this Schedule B provides for the addition or subtraction of a Business Day(s), the result will mean the same time of day as the time of an event on the original Business Day (i.e., a Problem that starts at 3:00 p.m. local time on
Monday is resolved by the following Business Day if such Problem is resolved by 3:00 p.m. local time on Tuesday, provided that both Monday and Tuesday are Business Days). 


 

	 	(c)	“Critical Service Level” means those Service Levels that are assigned a Weighting Factor and for which a Service Level Credit is payable in the
event of a Critical Service Level Failure. Critical Service Levels are designated by Health Net in accordance with Section 5.3 of this Schedule B. 

  

	 	(d)	“Critical Service Level Failure” means, with regard to any Critical Service Level, Supplier’s failure to perform at a level that meets the
corresponding Critical Service Level during any particular Measurement Period. 

  

	 	(e)	“Measurement Period” means, for any Service Level, the period of time during which Supplier’s actual performance of the relevant Services
is to be measured against the corresponding Service Level. The Measurement Period for each Service Level is set forth on Exhibit B-1. 

  

	 	(f)	“Pool Percentage Available for Allocation” means *** percentage points. 


 

	 	(g)	“Service Levels” has the meaning given in Section 6.1 of the Terms and Conditions. 


 

	 	(h)	“Service Level Credit” has the meaning provided in Section 4.3(b) of this Schedule B. 


 

	 	(i)	“Service Level Failure” means, with regard to any Service Level, a failure by Supplier to either (i) perform at the level that meets the
corresponding Service Level during any particular Measurement Period, or (ii) to (A) properly monitor or measure any Service Level, or (B) report on the performance for any Service Level in accordance with Section 3.3 below.

	2.2	Other Terms 

 Other terms
used in this Schedule B (or any Exhibit or Attachment to this Schedule B) are either defined in the context in which they are used or are defined elsewhere in this Agreement, and in each case shall have the meanings there indicated. 

 

	3	MEASUREMENT, REPORTING AND SUPPORTING INFORMATION 

  

	3.1	Measurement 

  

	 	(a)	Except as otherwise expressly provided for a particular Service Level in Exhibit B-1, the Measurement Period for each Service Level shall be each calendar month during
the Term. 

  

	 	(b)	Except as otherwise expressly indicated in this Schedule B, all references to time of day in this Schedule B shall refer to Pacific Time (“PT”), and any
reference to “hour” or “hours” shall mean clock hours. 

  

	3.2	Measurement Tools 

  

	 	(a)	Supplier shall measure its performance with respect to each Service Level using the corresponding measurement tools, processes and methodologies identified for such
Service Level in Exhibit B-1, or as specified pursuant to Sections 3.2(c), and 5.2(c)(i) of this Schedule B. 

  

	 	(b)	Supplier shall provide (except as expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement) and utilize the necessary measurement and monitoring tools and procedures required to
measure and report Supplier’s performance of the Services against the applicable Service Levels. Such measurement and monitoring shall permit reporting at a level of detail sufficient to verify compliance with the Service Levels, and will be
subject to verification and review by Health Net. Supplier shall provide Health Net with information and access to such tools and procedures upon request, for purposes of verification. 


 

	 	(c)	If, after the Effective Date, Supplier desires to use a different measurement tool, process or methodology for any Service Level, Supplier shall provide written notice
to Health Net proposing: 

  

	 	(i)	the alternative measurement tool, process or methodology; and 

  

	 	(ii)	any reasonable adjustments to the Service Levels that are necessary to account for any increased or decreased sensitivity that will likely result from use of the
alternative measurement tool, process or methodology. 

 Supplier may utilize such alternative measurement tool,
process or methodology only to the extent such tool, and any associated Service Level adjustments, are approved in

writing by Health Net. 
  

	3.3	Reports and Supporting Information 

  

	 	(a)	Supplier shall deliver the Monthly Performance Report to Health Net in accordance with Section 17.3 of the Terms and Conditions. 


 

	 	(b)	Upon Health Net’s request, Supplier shall provide to Health Net detailed supporting information (including raw performance data) relating to Supplier’s
performance relative to the Service Levels. Such information shall at a minimum include all information that is necessary for Health Net to verify the accuracy of Service Level measurements and reporting, and any other supporting information
requested by Health Net to the extent it is available to Supplier. 

  

	 	(c)	Supplier shall make the reporting and supporting information described in this Section 3.3, available to Health Net both (i) in a form suitable for use on a
personal computer; and (ii) via a secure website; provided, however, that if requested by Health Net, Supplier shall also provide to Health Net “real time” electronic access to performance data (i.e., access to performance data that
reflects performance at the then-present time), to the extent that the agreed-upon measurement tools used to measure performance are capable of providing such access. To the extent that such tools are not capable of providing Health Net with such
“real time” access, Supplier shall promptly provide access to timely data upon Health Net’s request. 

  

	4	SERVICE LEVEL METHODOLOGY 

  

	4.1	General 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to Section 4.2 of this Schedule B, commencing on the Services Commencement Date Supplier shall meet or exceed each of the Service Levels. Service Levels
constitute one means, but not the exclusive means, of measuring Supplier’s performance of its commitment under Section 5.4 of the Terms and Conditions. If a Service Level includes multiple conditions or components (e.g., components (a),
(b) and(c)), then Supplier’s performance must satisfy each and every condition or component (i.e., components (a), (b) and (c)) to achieve the corresponding Service Level. 


 

	 	(b)	If any portion of the Services are to be provided from a business continuity recovery environment, the Service Levels shall continue to apply; except to the extent a
disaster occurring at a Health Net facility prevents Supplier from meeting such Service Levels. 

  

	4.2	Service Level Codes 

 For
each of the Service Levels set forth in Exhibit B-1, a corresponding “Code” has been designated in the “Code” column of the applicable table. The Codes have the following meanings: 

 

	 	(a)	“Code 1” – Code 1 has been assigned to Service Levels for which Health Net believes it has performance data showing that such Service
Levels were achieved by Health Net prior to the Effective Date. Supplier shall meet or exceed each Code 1 Service Level beginning on the Service Commencement Date, subject to the following: 


  
  

					
	Schedule B	 	B -3	 	Health Net/Cognizant Confidential










 Final Execution Version 
  


	 	(i)	During Transition, Supplier shall have the opportunity to review such data. If the Parties agree that such data does not demonstrate a history of compliance with a
particular Code 1 Service Level, they shall (A) first work in good faith to establish a Service Level that both Parties agree is supported by the applicable performance data; and (B) if they are unable to agree upon the Service Level, then
they shall follow the baselining process set forth in Section 5.2(c) to establish the Service Level. 

  

	 	(ii)	The process above shall be applied on an application-by-application basis for the Application Availability, Application Response Time, and On-Time Batch Processing
Service Levels (i.e., Application Availability, Application Response Time, and On-Time Batch Processing for some but not all In-Scope Applications may need to be validated or baselined). 


 

	 	(b)	“Code 2” – Code 2 has been assigned to Service Levels that the Parties agree should be established through the baselining process set forth
in Section 5.2(c). 

  

	 	(c)	“Code 3” – Code 3 has been assigned to the certain Service Levels for which a target has been set that Health Net has not consistently
achieved prior to the Effective Date. The following applies to Code 3 Service Levels: 

  

	 	(i)	Beginning on the Service Commencement Date, Supplier shall meet or exceed the levels of performance achieved by Health Net prior to the Effective Date; and


  

	 	(ii)	Within 60 days of the Service Commencement Date, Supplier shall provide Health Net with a plan for improving the Code 3 Service Levels to meet the target metrics set
for such Service Levels. Upon approval from Health Net, Supplier shall implement the plan and begin meeting the Service Level on the date specified in the plan. 


 

	 	(d)	“Code 4” – Code 4 has been assigned to Service Levels that the Parties agree do not require validation or baselining. Service Provider
shall meet or exceed Code 4 Service Levels beginning on the Service Commencement Date. 

  

	4.3	Failure to Perform 

  

	 	(a)	For each Service Level Failure, Supplier shall (i) investigate, assemble and preserve pertinent information with respect to, and report on the causes of, the
problem, including performing a root cause analysis of the problem; (ii) advise Health Net, as and to the extent requested by Health Net, of the status of remedial efforts being undertaken with respect to such problem; (iii) minimize the
impact of and correct the problem and begin meeting the Service Level; and (iv) take appropriate preventive measures so that the problem does not recur. 


 

	 	(b)	Supplier recognizes that a Critical Service Level Failure may have a material adverse impact on the business and operations of Health Net and that the damage from such
Critical Service Level Failure is not susceptible to precise determination. Accordingly, in the event of a Critical Service Level Failure for reasons other than ***. This Section 4.3(b) shall not limit Health Net’s rights with respect to
the events upon which Health Net may rely as a basis for Health Net’s termination of this Agreement for cause.

 Final Execution Version 
  


	 	(c)	Supplier shall not be relieved for any Service Level Failure caused by a Managed Third Party if such Service Level Failure arises from Supplier’s failure to manage
such Managed Third Parties in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

  

	4.4	Excused Service Level Failures 

 If Supplier fails to meet a Service Level and establishes within two months after such failure that: (a) Health Net’s failure to perform a retained responsibility was the root cause of
Supplier’s failure to meet such Service Level (e.g., providing the required infrastructure to host In-Scope Applications); (b) Supplier would have achieved such Service Level but for such Health Net failure; (c) Supplier used
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform and achieve the Service Level notwithstanding the presence and impact of such Health Net failure; and (d) Supplier is without fault in causing such Health Net failure, then no Service Level Credit
shall be assessed against Supplier for any resulting Service Level Failure, and Supplier shall otherwise be excused from achieving such Service Level for as long as Health Net fails to perform such retained responsibility and Supplier continues to
use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prevent, overcome, or mitigate the adverse effects of such failure to the extent required to achieve the applicable Service Level. Supplier shall not be excused from a failure to achieve a Service Level other
than under this Section 4.4 or as expressly provided in this Agreement. 
  

	4.5	Service Level Credits 

  

	 	(a)	Calculation. For each Critical Service Level Failure, the applicable Service Level Credit referenced in Section 4.3(b) above shall be calculated in
accordance with the following formula: 

  

					
		 	Service Level Credit = A x B	 	
			
	 Where:
	 		 	
			
		 	A = the applicable Weighting Factor; and	 	
		 	B = the Amount at Risk for such calendar month.	 	

  

	 	(b)	Notification. For each Critical Service Level Failure, Supplier shall report such failure to Health Net pursuant to Section 17.3(b) of the Terms and
Conditions and Section 3.3 of this Schedule B. Such report will, at a minimum, (i) identify and describe as a “Critical Service Level Failure” such Critical Service Level Failure, and (ii) calculate the amount of the
corresponding Service Level Credit, calculated pursuant to Section 4.5(a) of this Schedule B, that Health Net may elect pursuant to Section 4.3(b) of this Schedule B. 


 

	 	(c)	Limitations. 

  

	 	(i)	In no event shall the sum of the Weighting Factors for all Critical Service Levels exceed the Pool Percentage Available for Allocation. 


 

	 	(ii)	In no event shall the total amount of Service Level Credits payable by Supplier for Critical Service Level Failures occurring during a calendar month exceed the Amount
at Risk for such calendar month.

 ***. 
  

	5.2	Additions of Service Levels 

 *** 
  

	 	(a)	If Health Net adds a new Service Level for which there is at *** of historical data within the past *** and such data indicates performance that is acceptable to Health
Net, then the Service Level metric shall be the arithmetic mean of the most recent *** of historical data. For example, ***. Such Service Level shall become effective ***, but no earlier than *** after written notice from Health Net.


  

	 	(b)	If Health Net adds a new Service Level for which there is at least *** of historical data within the ***, but such data does not indicate performance that is acceptable
to Health Net, then, upon Health Net’s written request, Supplier will perform an assessment of the root causes of the unacceptable level of historical performance within ***. 


 

	 	(i)	At the end of such *** period, if Health Net reasonably determines that Supplier’s performance is below an acceptable level (e.g., by reference to industry
standards), then ***. 

  

	 	(ii)	At the end of such *** period, if Health Net determines that Supplier’s performance is at an acceptable level, then the Service Level metric shall be determined in
accordance with Section 5.2(a).

Net’s In-Scope Application portfolio (e.g., re-engineering initiatives). 

  

	6	CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SURVEYS 

  

	 	(a)	Within ninety (90) calendar days after the Effective Date or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, Supplier shall develop and propose for the approval of
the Parties a draft customer satisfaction questionnaire (“Satisfaction Survey”) designed to measure the satisfaction of End Users and other third parties who interact with Supplier with Supplier’s provision of the
Services. Following Health Net’s review of the foregoing, Supplier shall incorporate reasonable comments or suggestions of Health Net and shall finalize the Satisfaction Survey and process within sixty (60) calendar days after receiving
Health Net’s comments and suggestions. The final Satisfaction Survey and process shall be subject to the approval of both Parties. Supplier shall periodically update the Satisfaction to reflect New Services or changes to existing Services;
