option to purchase shares of common stock of the Company and ii) restricted shares of common stock of the Company in accordance with the Plan. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the Company and Grantee agree as follows: 
  

	I.	OPTION GRANT 

 A.
Grant of Option. The Company hereby grants to Grantee, as a matter of separate inducement and agreement and not in lieu of salary or other compensation for services, a Non-Qualified Stock Option to purchase
             shares of the $.16 2/3 par value common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) at the purchase price of $              per share (the “Option”) exercisable on
the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 B. Term. The term of the Option shall commence upon the date of grant,
                    , and shall expire on
                     (“Expiration Date”). 
 C. Vesting of Option. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Option shall be exercisable by Grantee or his/her personal representative on and after the first anniversary of the date hereof in
cumulative annual installments of one-third of the number of shares covered hereby. 
 D. Effect of Termination of Employment.

 1. If the employment of Grantee by the Company is terminated for Cause, all the rights of Grantee under this Agreement, whether or not
exercisable, shall terminate immediately. 
 2. If the employment of Grantee is terminated for any reason other than for Cause, Retirement,

 3. In the event of Optionee’s Retirement, (i) to the extent that this Option (or portion
hereof) is exercisable as of the date of such Retirement, this Option (or portion hereof) shall be exercisable at any time within two (2) years after the date of Retirement, but in no event beyond the Expiration Date, and only to the extent the
Option (or portion hereof) was exercisable at the date of Retirement, and (ii) to the extent that this Option (or portion hereof) is not exercisable as of the date of such Retirement, this Option (or portion hereof) shall continue to vest and
become exercisable as if the Optionee were continuing to provide services to the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable, and this Option (or portion hereof) shall be exercisable at any time within two (2) years following the date on which this
Option (or portion hereof) becomes vested and exercisable. 
 4. In the event of death or Disability of Grantee while in the employ of the
Company, this Option shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable by Grantee or the person or the persons to whom those rights pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, if appropriate, by the legal
representative of the Grantee or the estate of the Grantee at any time within two (2) years after the date of such death or Disability, regardless of the Expiration Date. 
 5. In the event of a Change in Control, as defined in the Plan, the Option granted in Section I shall become fully vested and immediately exercisable in
its entirety. In addition, Grantee will be permitted to surrender for cancellation within sixty (60) days after a Change in Control, any portion of this Option to the extent not yet exercised and Grantee will be entitled to receive a payment in
an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the greater of (1) the Fair Market Value on the date of surrender of the Shares subject to this Option or portion thereof surrendered, or (2) the Fair Market Value, as Adjusted, of the
Shares subject to this Option or portion thereof surrendered, over (y) the aggregate purchase price for such Shares under this Option or portion thereof surrendered. The form of payment shall be determined by the Committee. In the event
Grantee’s employment with the Company is terminated other than for Cause within three (3) years following a Change in Control, each Option held by the Grantee that was exercisable as of the date of termination of the Grantee’s
employment or service shall remain exercisable for a period ending the earlier of the second anniversary of the termination of the Grantee’s employment or the expiration of the stated term of the Option. 
 E. Exercise of Option.

legal representative as herein provided. Such notice shall state the number of shares to be exercised and shall be signed, or authorized electronically, by Grantee or his/her legal representative, as applicable.

 3. Federal, state and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be collected by the Company in connection with the
exercise of this Option shall be paid pursuant to the Plan by Grantee prior to the delivery of any Common Stock under this Agreement. 
  

	II.	RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT 

 A. Purchase and Sale of Common Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, and in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to Grantee, and Grantee hereby accepts from the
Company                      Shares (“Award”). The purchase price, if any, for the Shares shall be determined by the Committee, but shall
not be less than par value of $.16 2/3 per share. 

 B. Restrictions on Non-Vested Shares. Until such time as the Shares purchased hereunder have vested in accordance with
Section II.C. (Shares which are not vested are referred to herein as “Restricted Stock”), such Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated. In addition, such Restricted Stock
shall be subject to forfeiture in accordance with the provisions of Section II.D. Except for the restrictions provided for in this Section II., Grantee shall have all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock including, but not

vested (“Dividends”). 
 C. Vesting of Shares. 
 1. None of the Restricted Stock shall vest until
                    , the third anniversary of the date hereof, at which time it shall vest in full.

the Restricted Stock and Dividends shall thereafter be immediately transferable and non-forfeitable.

 3. Upon the Restricted Stock becoming vested, such Shares shall be free of all restrictions provided for
in this Section II. 
 D. Forfeiture. Upon the termination of Grantee’s employment with the Company prior to the time the
Restricted Stock has vested pursuant to Section I.C., other than a termination in the event of Grantee’s Retirement, the Restricted Stock and Dividends shall thereupon be forfeited immediately by Grantee. In the event of Grantee’s
Retirement, any Restricted Stock with respect to which restrictions have not lapsed as of the date of Retirement shall continue to vest, in accordance with the original schedule, as if the Grantee were continuing to provide services to the Company
or a Subsidiary, as applicable; provided, however, that the Organization & Compensation Committee of the Company may determine, in its sole discretion, that the restrictions on some or all of such Restricted Stock held by the Grantee as of
the date of Retirement shall immediately lapse. 
 E. Retention of Stock Certificate. Notwithstanding that Grantee has been
awarded the Restricted Stock on the date hereof, the Company has caused all Restricted Stock to be issued in book entry format or under a Certificate representing the Restricted Stock prior to vesting. If a Certificate is issued, it shall bear the
following legend: 
 “The Shares represented by this certificate have been issued pursuant to the terms of the Humana Inc. 2003 Amended
and Restated Stock Incentive Plan and may not be sold, assigned, transferred, discounted, exchanged, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of in any manner except as set forth in the terms of the agreement embodying the award of such
Shares.” 
 Upon the vesting of the Restricted Stock, Grantee shall have the right to receive a Certificate evidencing such vested
stock, shall receive any Dividends and shall have the right to have the legend provided for above removed from the Certificate representing such vested Shares. 
 F. Taxes. Federal, state and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be collected by the Company in connection with the grant or vesting of an Award shall be paid by Grantee
prior to the issuance of a Certificate representing the Shares.
