 7.3. Covenant Not to Compete or Interfere with Business Relationships. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, for a period
of two (2) years after termination of Employee’s employment with the Company Employee shall not engage in any activity competitive with or adverse to the Company or any Related Company described in this Section 7.3. 
 (a) Employee shall not solicit or hire (for Employee or on behalf of a third party) any person who is then, or during the

 7 








 
or a Related Company did any of the following: (A) met with the administration of such prospective client, (B) submitted a response to a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) or other
formal proposal from such prospective client, or (C) made any other written response to a request, solicitation, or initial discussion by or with such prospective client.).

predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of any of the Covenants. The period of time during which Employee is prohibited from engaging in the business practices described in the Covenants shall be
extended by any length of time during which Employee is in breach of the Covenants. The Company and Employee agree that the Covenants are appropriate and reasonable when considered in light of the nature and extent of the business conducted by the
Company. However, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of the Covenants, including without limitation, the specific time period, scope or geographical area, is unreasonable or against public policy, then such Covenants
shall be considered divisible as to time, scope, and geographical area and the maximum time period, scope or geographical area which is determined to be reasonable and not against public policy shall be enforced. 
 7.5 Remedies. The parties agree that if Employee breaches any Covenant, the Company or the Related Companies, as
applicable, will suffer irreparable damages and Employee will receive a benefit for which Employee had not paid. Employee agrees that (i) damages at law will be difficult to measure and an insufficient remedy to the Company or a Related Company
in the event that Employee violates the terms of this Section 7 and (ii) the Company and the Related Companies shall be entitled, upon application to a court of competent

  

 8 








 
jurisdiction, to obtain injunctive relief to enforce the provisions of this Section 7 without the necessity of posting a bond or proving actual damages, which injunctive relief shall
be in addition to any other rights or remedies available to the Company or the Related Companies. No remedy shall be exclusive of any other, and neither application for nor obtaining injunctive or other relief shall preclude any other remedy
available, including money damages and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Employee agrees to pay the Company or the Related Companies all costs and expenses incurred by the Company or the Related Companies relating to the enforcement of the terms of
this Section 7, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, both at trial and in appellate proceedings. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Related Companies are intended beneficiaries of the Covenants and shall have the same rights
and remedies as the Company to enforce the Covenants.

Company materially breaches this Agreement by failing to meet a payment obligation hereunder (as defined below), and Employee is not in breach of this Agreement, then Employee shall no longer be bound by the Covenants. For purposes of this

(30) days following notice from Employee) and (ii) the Company did not have a good faith basis to not pay the disputed payment to Employee. If a good faith dispute does exist regarding any payment obligation, the Company shall only be
deemed to have materially breached this Agreement by failing to meet a payment obligation hereunder if, after the amount to be paid is determined by a trial court of competent jurisdiction, the Company does not pay such amount awarded by such court
within thirty (30) days after the trial court’s decision. 
 8. Inventions and Intellectual Property. Employee
acknowledges that all developments, including, without limitation, inventions, patentable or otherwise, discoveries, improvements, patents, trade secrets, designs, reports, computer software, flow charts and diagrams, procedures, data,
documentation, ideas and writings and applications thereof relating to the present or planned business of the Company or any Related Company that, alone or jointly with others, Employee may conceive, create, make, develop, reduce to practice or

title and interest in and to all such Developments. All related items, including, but not limited to, memoranda, notes, lists, charts, drawings, records, files, computer software, programs, source and programming narratives and other documentation

promptly upon the termination of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing. Any waiver by any party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement
shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. 
 14. Governing Law and Venue and Limitations Period. Tennessee law shall govern the rights and obligations under this Agreement, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that would
require application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. In the event litigation is necessary, such legal action shall be commenced only in a court, of competent jurisdiction in Knox County, Tennessee; litigation commenced other than in Knox

except with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification under this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify Employee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by Employee only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was
authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of Expenses where the undertaking required pursuant to this Agreement, if any, has been
tendered to the Company) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the Tennessee General Corporation Act for the Company to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed but the burden of such defense
shall be on the Company.

 25.2 Expenses. As used in this Section 25, “Expenses”
shall include, without limitation, damages, losses, judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, excise taxes, settlements, costs, attorneys’ fees, accountants’ fees, disbursements and costs of attachment or similar bonds, costs of
investigations, and any expenses of establishing a right to indemnification under this Agreement. 
 25.3
Enforcement. If a claim or request under this Section 25 is not paid by the Company, or on its behalf, within thirty (30) days after a written claim or request has been received by the Company, Employee may at any time thereafter
bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim or request and, if successful in whole or in part, Employee shall also be entitled to be paid the costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, or
prosecuting such suit, together with prejudgment interest. 
 25.4 Partial Indemnification. If Employee is
entitled to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Employee for the portion of such Expenses to which Employee is entitled.

 25.5 Advances of Expenses. Expenses incurred by Employee in connection with any Proceeding shall be
paid by the Company in advance upon Employee’s request that the Company pay such Expenses, but only in the event that Employee shall have delivered in writing to the Company (i) an undertaking to reimburse the Company for Expenses with
respect to which Employee is not entitled to indemnification, and (ii) a statement of his good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company has been met. 
 25.6 Notice of Claim. Employee shall give the Company notice of any claim made against Employee for which
indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement. In addition, Employee shall give the Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Employee’s power and at such times and places as are
convenient for Employee. 
 25.7 Defense of Claim. With respect to any Proceeding (except any criminal or
regulatory Proceeding) as to which Employee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof: (i) the Company will be entitled to participate in such Proceeding at its own expense; (ii) except as otherwise provided below, to the extent it
so desires, the Company will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to Employee, which in the Company’s discretion may be regular counsel to the Company and may be counsel to other officers and directors of the
Company or any subsidiary thereof (Employee also shall have the right to employ his own counsel in such action, suit or Proceeding if Employee reasonably concludes that failure to do so would involve a conflict of interest between the Company and
Employee, and under such circumstances the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.); and (iii) the Company shall not be liable to indemnify Employee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of
any action or claim effected without its written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not settle any action or claim in any manner that would impose any penalty that would not be paid directly or indirectly by the
Company or result in any limitation on, or reporting requirements to third parties by, Employee without Employee’s prior written consent. Neither the Company nor

  

 13 








 
Employee will unreasonably withhold or delay their respective consent to any proposed settlement. A party from which consent to settle is requested shall respond to such request no later than
five (5) days, unless for good cause, but in no event less than thirty (30) days. A party’s response shall either consent or set forth in reasonable detail the basis on which consent is withheld. A party failing to timely respond as
provided herein shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed settlement. 
 25.8 Non-Exclusivity.
The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Section 25 shall not be exclusive of any right that Employee may have or hereafter may acquire
under any statute or certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or any subsidiary thereof, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or trustees or otherwise. 
 26. Compliance With IRC 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of Employee’s termination
of employment with the Company Employee is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits
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 of the Code, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such
payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Employee) until the date that is six months following Employee’s termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date
as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code) and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Employee hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such
payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A of the Code, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner,
determined by the Board, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. The Company shall consult with Employee in good faith regarding the implementation of the provisions of this Section 26; provided that neither the Company nor
any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to Employee with respect to thereto. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a
series of separate payments and references herein to Executive’s termination of employment shall refer to Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. 
 27. Effect of Termination. Any termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company shall automatically be deemed to be a
simultaneous resignation of all other positions and titles the Employee holds with the Company or any of its affiliates, whether as an officer, director, fiduciary, administrator or otherwise.

 EXHIBIT A 
 Employee shall be entitled to participate in a Bonus program based upon the achievement of certain Company goals and objectives as annually determined by the Board of Directors and a portion of the Bonus
may be discretionary. Employee shall be notified of the terms, conditions, and performance measures of the annual bonus plan as approved by the Board of Directors within seventy-five (75) days of the start of the current measurement period for
the Bonus program, which measurement period shall be one (1) fiscal year (the “Measurement Period”). For the bonus plan covering the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, information shall be provided to the participants no later
than July 31, 2006. Specific information to be provided to the Employee in regard to the operation of the bonus program shall include, as applicable, the portion of the bonus which is discretionary, the quantitative earnings targets for the
Company and, if applicable, for an operating area, qualitative performance measures, basis for measurement of performance against targets, and adjustments of eligible bonus pool for over or under performance against targets. For purposes of the
Bonus program, Employee’s eligible bonus pool will be equal to 50% of base salary as of the end of the measurement period of the Bonus program. The Bonus amount paid hereunder, if any, shall be prorated based on the number of months the
Employee worked during the bonus measurement period. Except as specifically provided in Section 6.5 (“Severance Compensation”) of this Agreement, Employee must be employed at the end of the bonus measurement period in order to be
eligible to receive payment of the bonus for such period. Bonus payments, if earned, shall be paid to Employee no later than 75 days following the measurement period for such bonus amounts. The parties specifically acknowledge that the salary and
benefits paid by the Company to Employee pursuant to this agreement shall be deemed expenses when calculating the financial performance measures under the bonus program.
