Notice of Performance Share Grant 
  

									
	 Participant:
	  	[—]
		
	 Company:
	  	WellPoint, Inc.
		
	 Notice:
	  	You have been granted the following award of performance shares of common stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the attached Performance
Share Agreement.
		
	 Plan:
	  	WellPoint Incentive Compensation Plan
		
	 Grant:
	  	 Grant Date: [—]
 Number of Performance Shares: [—]

		
	 Performance Period:
	  	The period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the last Vesting Date is the Performance Period. Subject to achievement of the performance measures described
below, the number of your Performance Shares listed in the “Shares” column, and any related Dividend Equivalents shall vest on the date listed in the “Vesting Date” column. Achievement of the performance measures described below
for the calendar year containing the Grant Date may increase or decrease the total number of Performance Shares covered by the Grant and any related Dividend Equivalents that vest on each Vesting Date.
			
	 	  	Shares	  	Vesting Date
			
	 	  	 	  	 
		
		  	 Achievement of the following performance measures must be approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of WellPoint, Inc. Overall, you will earn between 0% and 225% of the number of Performance Shares originally covered by the Grant. One-half of the total number of Performance Shares, as adjusted for achievement of the performance measures,
will vest on each of the dates listed in the Vesting Date column above. If achievement of any performance measure results in a number of shares awarded that is more or less than 100%, then the number of Dividend Equivalents payable upon each Vesting
Date shall be adjusted accordingly.
  
 For each performance measure in each
table below, a Performance Percentage between 0% and 50% (percentage will be interpolated) of the number of Performance Shares originally covered by the Grant will be calculated.

 
 The formula to determine the total achievement of the performance measures is (a) the
sum of the earned Performance Percentage under Table A plus (b) 50% of (c) the difference of the sum of the earned Performance Percentage under Table B from the sum of the earned Performance Percentage under Table A. The resulting total achievement
percentage is then multiplied by the number of Performance Shares originally covered by the Grant to determine the Performance Shares earned.

 EXHIBIT 10.2 (Q) 
  

 Performance Share Award Agreement 

This Performance Share Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) dated as of the Grant Date (the “Grant Date”) set forth in
the Notice of Performance Share Grant attached as Schedule A hereto (the “Grant Notice”) is made between WellPoint, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Participant set forth in the Grant Notice. The Grant Notice is included in and made
part of this Agreement. 
 1. Performance Period. The Performance Period with respect to the Performance Shares shall be
as set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Performance Period”). The Participant acknowledges that the Performance Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, encumbered, alienated, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of (whether
voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy)). Upon the completion of the applicable portion of the Performance Period and subject to
the performance measure described in the attached Grant Notice, the restrictions set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Performance Shares theretofore subject to such completed Performance Period shall lapse and the Shares covered by the
related portion of the award shall be delivered, except as may be provided in accordance with Section 10 hereof. 
 2.
Ownership. Upon expiration of the applicable portion of the Performance Period and subject to the performance measure described in the attached Grant Notice, the Company shall transfer the Shares covered by the related portion of the award to
the Participant’s account with the Company’s captive broker. 
 3. Termination. 

(a) Retirement. If the Participant’s Termination is due to Retirement (for purposes of this Agreement,
defined as the Participant’s Termination after attaining age fifty-five (55) with at least ten (10) completed years of service), the restrictions upon the Performance Shares shall continue to lapse throughout the Performance Period;
provided, however, that if the Participant’s Termination due to Retirement is during the calendar year of the Grant Date, the Performance Shares shall be forfeited on a pro-rata basis, measured by the number of months in that calendar
year during which the Participant was employed by the Company or an Affiliate (e.g., if the Participant’s Retirement occurs in September, 25% (or
 3/12) of the Performance Shares will be forfeited),
and the Performance Period on the non-forfeited portion of the Performance Shares shall continue to lapse throughout the Performance Period, subject to the performance measure described in the attached Grant Notice.2 

(b) Death and Disability. If the Participant’s Termination is due to death or Disability (for purposes of this Agreement, as
defined in the applicable WellPoint Long-Term Disability Plan), then the Performance Period shall immediately lapse, causing any restrictions which would otherwise remain on the Performance Shares to immediately lapse.3 

(c) Other Terminations. Unless Section 3(d) is applicable, if the Participant’s Termination is by the Company or an
Affiliate or by the Participant for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement, then all Performance Shares for which the Performance Period had not lapsed prior to the date of such Termination shall be immediately forfeited. 

(d) Termination after Change in Control. If after a Change in Control the Participant’s Termination is (i) by the
Company or an Affiliate without Cause (for purposes of this Agreement, defined as a violation of “conduct” as such term is defined in the WellPoint HR Corrective Action Policy and if the Participant participates in the WellPoint, Inc.
Executive Agreement Plan (the “Agreement Plan”), the Key Associate Agreement, or the Key Sales Associate Agreement also as defined in that plan or agreement) or (ii), if the Participant participates in the Agreement Plan, by the
Participant for Good Reason (as defined in the Agreement Plan), then there shall be paid out in cash to the Participant within 30 days following the effective date of the Change in Control the value of the Performance Shares to which the Participant
would have been entitled if performance achieved 100% of the target performance measures as described in the attached Grant Notice.4

 EXHIBIT 10.2 (Q) 
  

 (e) Clawback Provision. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to
the contrary, in the event that the Participant is a non-executive participant in the Agreement Plan or is an Executive (as defined by the Company) at the time of the Participant’s Termination, regardless of whether the Executive is then a
participant in such Agreement Plan, the Performance Shares shall be forfeited if the Participant breaches any provision of Section 3.6 or 3.10 of the Agreement Plan, in which case the Participant shall be subject to the “Return of
Consideration” provision contained in Section 3.7 of the Agreement Plan.5 
 4. Transferability of the Performance Shares. The Participant shall have
the right to appoint any individual or legal entity in writing, on a Designation of Beneficiary form, as his/her beneficiary to receive any Performance Shares (to the extent not previously terminated or forfeited) under this Agreement upon the
Participant’s death. Such designation under this Agreement may be revoked by the Participant at any time and a new beneficiary may be appointed by the Participant by execution and submission to the Company, or its designee, of a revised
Designation of Beneficiary form to this Agreement. In order to be effective, a designation of beneficiary must be completed by the Participant on the Designation of Beneficiary form and received by the Company, or its designee, prior to the date of
the Participant’s death. If the Participant dies without such designation, the Performance Shares will become part of the Participant’s estate. 
 5. Dividend Equivalents. In the event the Company declares a dividend on Shares (as defined in the Plan), for each unvested Performance Share on the dividend payment date, the Participant shall be
credited with a Dividend Equivalent, payable in cash, with a value equal to the value of the declared dividend. The Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to the same restrictions as the unvested Performance Shares to which they relate. No interest
or other earnings shall be credited on the Dividend Equivalents, provided that additional Dividend Equivalents may be awarded or forfeited in the same proportion as the number of Performance Shares determined to be awarded or forfeited based on the
achievement of the performance measures. Subject to continued employment with the Company and Affiliates and, as applicable, achievement of performance measures, the restrictions with respect to the Dividend Equivalents shall lapse at the same time
and in the same proportion as the initial award of Performance Shares. No additional Dividend Equivalents shall be accrued for the benefit of the Participant with respect to record dates occurring prior to, or with respect to record dates occurring
on or after the date, if any, on which the Participant has forfeited the Performance Shares or any Performance Shares have been settled. For any specified employee, any Dividend Equivalents subject to Code Section 409A and payable upon a
termination of employment shall be subject to a six month delay. The Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to all such other provisions set forth herein, and may be used to satisfy any or all obligations for the payment of any tax attributable to
the Dividend Equivalents and/or Performance Shares.6

 6. Taxes and Withholdings. Upon the expiration of the applicable portion of the Performance Period (and delivery of
the underlying Shares), or as of which the value of any Performance Shares first becomes includible in the Participant’s gross income for income tax purposes, the Participant shall satisfy all obligations for the payment of any tax attributable
to the Performance Shares. The Participant shall notify the Company if the Participant wishes to pay the Company in cash, check or with shares of WellPoint common stock already owned for the satisfaction of any taxes of any kind required by law to
be withheld with respect to such Performance Shares. Any such election made by the Participant must be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Committee”), in its sole discretion deems appropriate. If the Participant does not notify the Company in writing at least 14 days prior to the applicable lapse of the Performance Period, the
Committee is authorized to take any such other action as may be necessary or appropriate, as determined by the Committee, to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. Such other actions may include withholding the required amounts from
other compensation payable to the Participant, a sell-to-cover transaction or such other method determined by the Committee, in its discretion.

reference to her Employment Agreement. 


	6 	For awards to Angela F. Braly, this section omits the phrase “for any specified employee” as Ms. Braly is a specified employee under Code
Section 409A.

 EXHIBIT 10.2 (Q) 
  

 7. No Rights as a Shareholder. The Participant shall have no rights of a
shareholder (including, without limitation, dividend and voting rights) with respect to the Performance Shares, for record dates occurring on or after the Grant Date and prior to the date any such Performance Shares vest in accordance with this
Agreement. 
 8. No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the Performance Shares nor any terms contained in this
Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any express or implied right to be retained in the employment or service of the Company or any Affiliate for any period, nor restrict in any way the right of the Company, which right is hereby expressly
reserved, to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that any right to have restrictions on the Performance Shares lapse is earned only by continuing as an employee
of the Company or an Affiliate at the will of the Company or such Affiliate, or satisfaction of any other applicable terms and conditions contained in the Plan and this Agreement, and not through the act of being hired, being granted the Performance
Shares or acquiring Shares hereunder. 
 9. The Plan. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, and to such regulations as may from time to time be adopted by the Committee. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms are as defined in the Plan. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly. The Plan and the prospectus describing the Plan can be found on the Company’s HR
intranet. A paper copy of the Plan and the prospectus shall be provided to the Participant upon the Participant’s written request to the Company at WellPoint, Inc., 120 Monument Circle, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204, Attention: Corporate
Secretary, Shareholder Services Department. 
 10. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. 

(a) The Performance Shares and the obligation of the Company to deliver Shares hereunder shall be subject in all respects to (i) all
applicable Federal and state laws, rules and regulations and (ii) any registration, qualification, approvals or other requirements imposed by any government or regulatory agency or body which the Committee shall, in its discretion, determine to
be necessary or applicable. Moreover, the Company shall not deliver any certificates for Shares to the Participant or any other person pursuant to this Agreement if doing so would be contrary to applicable law. If at any time the Company determines,
in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of Shares upon any national securities exchange or under any state or Federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable, the
Company shall not be required to deliver any certificates for Shares to the Participant or any other person pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained, or
otherwise provided for, free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. 
 (b) The Shares received upon the expiration of
the applicable portion of the Performance Period shall have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). If the Participant is an “affiliate” of the Company, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the
Securities Act (“Rule 144”), the Participant may not sell the Shares received except in compliance with Rule 144. Certificates representing Shares issued to an “affiliate” of the Company may bear a legend setting forth such
restrictions on the disposition or transfer of the Shares as the Company deems appropriate to comply with Federal and state securities laws. 
 (c) If, at any time, the Shares are not registered under the Securities Act, and/or there is no current prospectus in effect under the Securities Act with respect to the Shares, the Participant shall
execute, prior to the delivery of any Shares to the Participant by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, an agreement (in such form as the Company may specify) in which the Participant represents and warrants that the Participant is purchasing or
acquiring the shares acquired under this Agreement for the Participant’s own account, for investment only and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and represents and agrees that any subsequent offer for sale or distribution of
any kind of such Shares shall be made only pursuant to either (i) a registration statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act, which registration statement has become effective and is current with regard to the Shares being offered
or sold, or (ii) a specific exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, but in claiming such exemption the Participant shall, prior to any offer for sale of such Shares, obtain a prior favorable written opinion, in form
and substance satisfactory to the Company, from counsel for or approved by the Company, as to the applicability of such exemption thereto.

 11. Code Section 409A Compliance. Except with respect to Participants who
are Retirement eligible or become Retirement eligible before the calendar year containing the second Vesting Date as shown on the Grant Notice, it is intended that this Agreement meet the short-term deferral exception from Code Section 409A.

in the Company’s records. 
 13. Other Plans. The Participant acknowledges that any income derived from the
Performance Shares shall not affect the Participant’s participation in, or benefits under, any other benefit plan or other contract or arrangement maintained by the Company or any Affiliate. 

14. Recoupment Policy for Incentive Compensation. The Company’s Recoupment Policy for Incentive Compensation, as may be
amended from time to time, shall apply to the Performance Shares, any Shares delivered hereunder and any profits realized on the sale of such Shares to the extent that the Participant is covered by such policy. If the Participant is covered by such
policy, the policy may apply to recoup Performance Shares awarded, any Shares delivered hereunder or profits realized on the sale of such Shares either before, on or after the date on which the Participant becomes subject to such policy.8
