C. Disclosure of Personal Compensation Information. As an executive officer of the
Company (as such term is defined in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)), information regarding Executives employment arrangements with the Company, including, among other things, the
terms of this Agreement and any stock option agreement, restricted stock agreement, restricted stock unit agreement, performance share agreement and/or severance agreement Executive enters into with the Company from time to time (collectively,

after the date hereof), and the establishment of performance goals under the Companys incentive plans. Executives execution of this Agreement will serve as Executives acknowledgement that Executives Personal Compensation
Information may be publicly disclosed from time to time in filings with the SEC, NYSE or otherwise as required by applicable law.

2.
Adjustments and Changes in Employment Status. Executive understands that the Company reserves the right to make personnel decisions regarding Executives employment, including, but not limited to, decisions regarding any promotion,

For purposes of this Agreement, the capitalized terms Termination and Terminate, shall mean Executives Separation from Service (as defined below) from the Company. A
Separation from Service shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), from time to time and
other publications of the Internal Revenue Service published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin from time to time.

3. Protection of
Proprietary and Confidential Information. Executive agrees that Executives employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust with the Company with respect to Proprietary and Confidential Information (as defined below) of the
Company learned by Executive during Executives employment.

A. Executive agrees not to directly or indirectly use or disclose any of

not to disclose it, except as necessary in carrying out Executives work for such entities consistent with such entities agreements with such third parties, and not to use it for the benefit of anyone other than for such entities or such
third parties consistent with such entities agreements with such third parties.

E. Executives obligations under this

other person or entity that might be in conflict with Executives obligations to the Company under this Agreement, including but not limited to outside employment, sales broker relationships, investments or business activities. Executive
understands and agrees that while employed by the Company Executive is expected to refrain from engaging in any outside activities that might be in conflict with the business interests of the Company. In addition, Executive represents and warrants

involved in any criminal or civil action or legal matter that could affect Executives ability to perform Executives duties hereunder or that may have a negative impact on the Company, its reputation or its operations. Executive agrees,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, to notify the Companys Senior Vice President of Organizational Effectiveness immediately in the event that Executive becomes party to any criminal or civil action or other legal matter in the future
that could have an affect on the foregoing representation.

6. Executive Benefits.

A. Employee Benefit Programs. Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Companys various employee benefit programs and plans in place
from time to time as long as Executive remains employed by the Company and Executive meets the applicable participation requirements. These benefit programs and plans include paid time off (PTO), holidays, group medical, dental,
vision, term life, and short and long term disability insurance and participation in the Companys 401(k) plan, tuition reimbursement plan and deferred compensation plan. The Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates may modify, terminate or
amend any benefit or plan in its discretion, retroactively or prospectively, subject only to applicable law.

B. Required Insurance.
Executive will be covered by workers compensation insurance and state disability insurance, as required by state law.

C.
Financial Counseling Allowance. Executive will be entitled to be reimbursed up to the amount of $5,000 per year for documented costs incurred for personal financial counseling services provided to Executive, including tax preparation, as long
as Executive remains employed by the Company.

D. Incentive Bonus. Executive will be eligible to participate in the Health Net, Inc.
Executive Incentive Plan (EIP) in accordance with the terms of the EIP, which provides Executive with a target opportunity to earn each plan year up to 70% of Executives Base Salary as additional compensation according to
the terms of the EIP. The bonus payment will range



- 4 -



---

from 0% to 200% of target depending upon the actual results achieved, and specific, individually tailored measures will be established by the Company that
must be achieved by Executive in order for Executive to be eligible to receive bonus payments for a given plan year. It is understood that the Committee and the Company will award bonus amounts, if any, as it deems appropriate consistent with the
EIP.

E. Expenses. Subject to and in accordance with the Companys written policies for business and travel expenses, Executive
will receive reimbursement for all business travel and other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Executive in the performance of Executives duties pursuant to this Agreement.

7. Equity Grants.

A. Initial
Equity Grant. As of the Effective Date, Executive will be granted 10,000 performance shares (the Performance Shares) which will vest and become non-forfeitable in accordance with the terms of the performance share agreement
executed in connection with such grant. The Performance Shares granted to Executive will be granted under one of the Companys Long-Term Incentive Plans in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such plan and the
agreement executed in connection with such grant.

B. Future Equity Grants. Any future equity grants made to Executive will be
granted under one of the Companys Long-Term Incentive Plans, and will be subject to the terms of such plan and of the agreement executed in connection with such grant. Any future equity grants to Executive will be made at the discretion of the
Committee.

C. Company Stock Ownership Requirement. In accordance with the Executive Officer Stock Ownership Policy adopted by the
Board of Directors of the Company (the Executive Stock Ownership Policy), Executive is required to own shares of Common Stock of the Company having a value of one times (1x) Executives Base Salary in effect from time to
time pursuant to this Agreement (the Stock Ownership Requirement). The number of shares of Common Stock Executive is required to own will be calculated based on the average NYSE closing price per share of the Companys Common
Stock (as adjusted for stock splits and similar changes to the Common Stock) for the most recently completed fiscal year of the Company.

Using Executives current salary of $397,254 and a stock price of $52.69, which is the average closing price per share of the Companys Common Stock as of December 31, 2007, Executives current stock ownership
requirement is 7,539 (Target Amount). The Target Amount is subject to change from time to time based on (1) changes in the average closing sales price of the Companys Common Stock on an annual basis and (2) any
changes in Executives Base Salary made pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1B of this Agreement. Any shares of Company Common Stock that Executive owns, and any restricted stock units, shares of restricted stock or performance
shares of the Company that Executive owns and have vested count toward the Target Amount. Stock options, unvested restricted stock units, unvested shares of restricted stock, unvested performance shares and shares of Common Stock gifted to others do
not count toward the Target Amount. Under the Executive Stock Ownership Policy, Executive will have until four years from the Effective Date to comply with the Stock Ownership Requirement.

---

The Committee expects that Executive will make reasonable progress toward Executives Stock
Ownership Requirement. Executive will be notified on an annual basis of any changes in Executives Target Amount.

8. Term of
Employment. Executives employment with the Company is at the mutual consent of Executive and the Company. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to guarantee Executives continuing employment with the Company or employment for any
specific length of time. Accordingly, either Executive or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without advance notice and with or without Cause (as defined below). Upon Termination of
Executives employment for any reason, in addition to any other payments that may be payable to Executive hereunder, Executive (or Executives beneficiaries or estate) shall be paid (in each case to the extent not theretofore paid) within
thirty (30) days following Executives date of Termination (or such shorter period that may be required by applicable law): (a) Executives annual Base Salary through such date, (b) accrued but unused PTO,
(c) reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive prior to the Termination date and (d) amounts under any other compensatory plan, arrangement or program payment to which Executive may then be entitled. This Agreement constitutes a final and
fully binding integrated agreement with respect to the at-will nature of the employment relationship.

9. Termination of
Employment/Severance Pay.

A. Termination Without Cause Not Following Change in Control. If Executives employment is
Terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in Section 10(D) below) at any time that is not within two (2) years after a Change in Control (as defined below) of Health Net, Inc., Executive will be entitled

11. Restrictive Covenants.

A. Non-Competition. Executive hereby agrees that, during (i) the six (6)-month period following a Termination of Executives employment with the Company that entitles Executive to receive severance benefits under this
Agreement or a written agreement with or policy of the Company or (ii) the twelve (12)-month period following a Termination of Executives employment with the Company that does not entitle Executive to receive such severance benefits (the
period referred to in either clause (i) or (ii), the Restricted Period), Executive shall not undertake any employment or activity (including, but not limited to, consulting services) with a Competitor (as defined below) in
any geographic area in which the Company or any of its affiliates operate (the Market Area), where the loyal and complete fulfillment of the duties of the competitive employment or activity would call upon Executive to reveal, to
make judgments on or otherwise use or disclose any confidential business information or trade secrets of the business of the Company or any of its affiliates to which Executive had access during Executives employment with the Company. For
purposes of this Section, Competitor shall refer to any health maintenance organization or insurance company that provides managed health care or related services similar to those provided by the Company or any of its affiliates.



- 9 -



---

B. Non-Solicitation. In addition, Executive agrees that, during the applicable Restricted Period
following Termination of Executives employment with the Company, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, interfere with, hire, offer to hire or induce any person, who is or was an employee of the Company or any of its
affiliates at the time of such solicitation, interference, hiring, offering to hire or inducement, to discontinue his/her relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates or to accept employment by, or enter into a business relationship with,
Executive or any other entity or person or (ii) solicit, interfere with or otherwise contact any customer or client of the Company or any of its affiliates.

C. Modification of Restrictions. It is hereby further agreed that if any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the restrictions imposed in this Section 13 are unreasonable (including, but
not limited to, the definition of Market Area or Competitor or the time period during which this provision is applicable), the parties hereto hereby agree to any restrictions that such court would find to be reasonable under the circumstances.

D. Injunction Rights. Executive also acknowledges that the services to be rendered by Executive to the Company are of a special and
unique character, which gives this Agreement a peculiar value to the Company or any of its affiliates, the loss of which may not be reasonably or adequately compensated for by damages in an action at law, and that a material breach or threatened
breach by Executive of any of the provisions contained in this Section 13 will cause the Company or any of its affiliates irreparable injury. Executive therefore agrees that the Company may be entitled, in addition to the remedies set forth
above in this Section 13 and any other right or remedy, to a temporary, preliminary and permanent injunction, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of monetary damages or the posting of any bond or security, enjoining or restraining
Executive from any such violation or threatened violations.

12. Successors; Binding Agreement.

A. Survival Following Merger, Consolidation or Asset Transfer. This Agreement shall not be terminated by any merger or consolidation of the Company
whereby the Company is or is not the surviving or resulting corporation or as a result of any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. In the event of any such merger, consolidation or transfer of assets, the provisions of
this Agreement shall be binding upon the surviving or resulting corporation or the person or entity to which such assets are transferred.

B. Survivors Assumption of Agreement. The Company agrees that concurrently with any merger, consolidation or transfer of assets referred to in this Section 14, it will cause any successor or transferee to unconditionally
assume, by written instrument delivered to Executive (or Executives beneficiary or estate), all of the obligations of the Company hereunder. Failure of the Company to obtain such assumption prior to the effectiveness of any such merger,
consolidation or transfer of assets shall entitle Executive to compensation and other benefits from the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as Executive would be entitled hereunder if Executives employment were Terminated without
Cause. For purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such merger, consolidation or transfer becomes effective shall be deemed the date of Termination.

C. Enforceability. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executives personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators,



- 10 -



---

successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If Executive shall die while any amounts would be payable to Executive hereunder had Executive
continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to such person or persons appointed in writing by Executive to receive such amounts or, if no person is so appointed,
to Executives estate.

13. Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. It is the intention of the Company and Executive
that this Agreement not result in unfavorable tax consequences to Executive under Section 409A of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance promulgated thereunder (Section 409A) and the
Agreement shall be interpreted as to so comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and Executive agree to the provisions set forth in this Section 15 in order to comply with,
or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A.

A. If Executive is a specified employee (as determined under the
Companys Specified Employee Policy, or, in the absence of any policy, within the meaning of Section 409A) with respect to the Company, any non-exempt non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A and otherwise payable
to or in respect of Executive in connection with Executives Termination pursuant to this Agreement shall be delayed until the earliest date upon which such amounts may be paid without being subject to taxation under Section 409A. Any
amount, the payment of benefit of which is delayed by application of the preceding sentence, shall be paid as soon as possible following the expiration of such period.

B. All incentive bonus payments described in Section 7(D) shall be paid to Executive, to the extent earned, in no event later than the last day of the applicable 2-1/2 month period, as such term is
defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i)(A) with respect to such payments treatment as a short-term deferral for purposes of Section 409A.

C. With respect to the Companys reimbursement obligations and provision of in-kind benefits under Sections 6(C) and 6(E) hereof, and the provision
of Benefits to Executive, (i) in no event shall any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits be made or provided later than the last day of Executives taxable year following the taxable year in which the fee or expense was incurred or the
tax payment was made, as applicable, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during Executives taxable year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be
provided, in any other taxable year of Executive, and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv).

D. The Company and Executive agree to cooperate in good faith in an effort to comply with Section 409A. Under no circumstances shall
the Company be responsible for any taxes, penalties, interest or other losses or expenses incurred by the Executive due to any failure to comply with Section 409A. To the extent payments and benefits under this Agreement are subject to
Section 409A, and such payments and benefits do not so comply, the Company shall amend this Agreement, or take such other actions as the Company deems reasonably necessary or appropriate, to comply with Section 409A. If any provision of
the Agreement would cause such payments and benefits to fail to so comply, such provision shall not be effective and shall be null and void with respect to such payments or benefits, and such provision shall otherwise remain in full force and
effect.

14. Company Policies. Executives employment with the Company is subject to the terms and
conditions contained in the Companys Associate Policies located on HR Link, which can be accessed through the Companys intranet site, as in effect from time to time (the Associate Policies), the content of which is
incorporated by reference herein. Executive shall be required to read, understand and comply with the Associate Policies.

15.
Severability. If any term of this Agreement is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected and the parties shall use their best efforts to
find an alternative way to achieve the same result.

16. Integrated Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any prior agreements,
representations or promises of any kind, whether written, oral, express or implied between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matters herein. It constitutes the full, complete and exclusive agreement between Executive and the Company
with respect to the subject matters herein. This Agreement cannot be changed unless in writing, signed by Executive and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (or the Committee, if permitted

and the Company.

17. Waiver. No waiver of any default hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any subsequent default. Failure by
either party to enforce any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, for any length of time or from time to time, shall not be deemed to waive or decrease the rights of such party to insist thereafter upon strict performance by the other party.

18. Notices. All notices and communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given

19. Governing Law. The interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the principle of conflicts of laws. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this Agreement, which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

20.
Survival and Enforcement. Sections 3, 8, 9, 11 and 12 of this Agreement and any rights and remedies arising out of this Agreement shall survive and continue in full force and effect in accordance with the respective terms thereof,
notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or a Termination of Executives employment. The parties agree that the Company would be damaged irreparably in the event any provision of Sections 3, 11 and 12 of this Agreement were not
performed in accordance with its terms or were otherwise breached and that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such nonperformance or breach. Therefore, the Company or its successors or assigns shall be entitled in addition to other
rights and remedies existing in their favor, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent any breach or threatened breach of any of such provisions and to enforce such provisions specifically (without posting a bond or other security).

21. Acknowledgement. Executive acknowledges that Executive has had the opportunity to discuss the content of this Agreement with and obtain advice
from Executives attorney, have had sufficient time to and have carefully read and fully understood all of the provisions of this Agreement, and Executive is knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Agreement. Executive further acknowledges
that Executive is obligated to become familiar with and comply at all times with all written policies of the Company.

EXHIBIT A

[FORM OF SEPARATION AGREEMENT, WAIVER AND RELEASE OF CLAIMS]

This SEPARATION AGREEMENT, WAIVER AND
RELEASE OF CLAIMS (this Separation Agreement and Release) is made and entered into as of the dates set forth on the signature pages hereto by and between Health Net, Inc. and its affiliates and subsidiaries (hereinafter referred
to as the Company) and [EXECUTIVE NAME] (hereinafter referred to as the Executive).

WHEREAS,
the Company and Executive are parties to an Employment Agreement dated as of [DATE] (the Employment Agreement) and are entering into this Separation Agreement and Release as a condition to Executives receipt of a severance
payment thereunder (capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Employment Agreement).

NOW,
THEREFORE, the Company and Executive agree as follows:



|1. | Executives employment with the Company will terminate on [TERM DATE ] (the Termination Date). Upon termination of employment, Executive will not represent
to anyone that he is an employee of the Company and will not say or do anything purporting to bind the Company. Upon Executives termination of employment, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all other positions with the Company, if
any, held by Executive.
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2. | Executives termination of employment with the Company shall be considered a [DESCRIBE TYPE OF TERMINATION]under the Employment Agreement, and Executive is therefore
eligible to receive [DESCRIBE PAYMENTS AND OTHER BENEFITS TO BE RECEIVED (SEVERANCE, BENEFIT CONTINUATION/COBRA, ETC.].
|-- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3. | Executive acknowledges that all unused accrued vacation and unused personal absence time will be paid in Executives final regular paycheck in keeping with the Companys
policy and practice or such shorter time as may be required by applicable law. Executive further acknowledges that no further vacation/paid-time-off or other benefits will accrue after the Termination Date.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4. | Executives participation in all Company employee benefit plans as an active employee shall cease on the Termination Date, and Executive shall not be eligible to make
contributions to or to receive Company matching contributions under the Health Net, Inc. 401(k) Associate Savings Plan, or to make any deferrals pursuant to any deferred compensation plan of the Company after the Termination Date (it being
understood that Executive shall be entitled to all vested benefits accrued as of the date hereof under the Companys 401(k) Savings Plan and any deferred compensation plan). If, immediately prior to the Termination Date, Executive participates
in any Company employee welfare benefit plan, Executives participation in such plan shall continue on the same terms and conditions, including the same co-payment terms, until 11:59 p.m. (Pacific Time) on the last day of the month in which the
Termination Date occurs.

|5. | In partial consideration of the Company providing Executive the payments and benefits set forth above and as a condition to receive such payments and benefits, which Executive
acknowledges he is not otherwise entitled to receive, Executive freely and voluntarily enters into this Separation Agreement and Release and, by signing this Separation Agreement and Release, Executive, on his own behalf and on behalf of his heirs,
beneficiaries, successors, representatives, trustees, administrators and assigns, hereby waives and releases the Company, and each of its past, present and future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, consultants, accountants, attorneys,
agents, managers, insurers, sureties, parent and sister corporations, divisions, subsidiary corporations and entities, partners, joint venturers, affiliates, beneficiaries, successors, representatives and assigns, from any and all claims, demands,
damages, debts, liabilities, controversies, obligations, actions or causes of action of any nature whatsoever, whether based on tort, statute, contract, indemnity, rescission or any other theory of recovery, including but not limited to claims
arising under federal, state or local laws prohibiting discrimination in employment, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Civil Rights Act of 1870, as amended, claims of disability discrimination under the Americans
with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended (ADEA), the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN), or claims growing out of any legal restrictions on the
Companys right to terminate its employees and whether for compensatory, punitive, equitable or other relief, whether known, unknown, suspected or unsuspected, against the Company, including without limitation claims which may have arisen or
may in the future arise in connection with any event which occurred on or before the date of Executives execution of this Separation Agreement and Release. The provisions in this paragraph do not extend to any rights Executive may have to
enforce the terms of this Agreement and are not intended to prohibit Executive from filing a claim for unemployment insurance.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6. | Executive expressly waives any right or claim of right to assert hereafter that any claim, demand, obligation and/or cause of action has, through ignorance, oversight or error, been
omitted from the terms of this Separation Agreement and Release. Executive makes this waiver with full knowledge of his rights and with specific intent to release both his known and unknown claims, and therefore specifically waives the provisions of
Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California or other similar provisions of any other applicable law, which reads as follows:
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the
debtor.

Executive understands and acknowledges the significance and consequence of this Separation Agreement and Release and of such
specific waiver of Section 1542, and expressly agrees that this Agreement shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected claims, demands,
obligations and causes of action herein above specified.



|7. | Executive shall not initiate or cause to be initiated against the Company any compliance review, suit, action, investigation or proceeding of any kind, or
voluntarily participate in same, individually or as a representative, witness or member of a class, under contract,
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | law or regulation, federal, state or local, pertaining to any matter related to his employment with the Company, unless Executive first cooperates in making
his allegations known to the Company for the Company to take corrective action at a time and place designated by the Company. Executive represents and warrants that he has not, to date, initiated (or caused to be initiated) any such review, suit,
action, investigation or proceeding; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7 shall restrict Executives ability to challenge the validity of any release herein of ADEA claims nor to any suit or action brought by
Executive to assert such a challenge. In addition, Executive shall, without further compensation, cooperate with and assist the Company in the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any actual or threatened third party claim, investigation
or proceeding involving the Company or its predecessors or affiliates and arising from or relating to, in whole or in part, Executives employment with the Company or its predecessors or affiliates for which the Company requests
Executives assistance, which cooperation and assistance shall include, but not be limited to, providing testimony and assisting in information and document gathering efforts. In this connection, it is agreed that the Company will use its
reasonable best efforts to assure that any request for such cooperation will not unduly interfere with Executives other material business and personal obligations and commitments.
| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8. | Executive agrees he will return to the Company immediately upon termination any building keys, security passes or other access or identification cards and any Company property that
was in his possession, including but not limited to any documents, credit cards, computer equipment, mobile phones or data files. Executive agrees to clear all expense accounts and pay all amounts owed on any corporate credit cards which the Company
previously issued to Executive, subject to the Companys obligation to reimburse Executive for any properly reimbursable business expenses in accordance with the Companys expense policies and procedures then in effect.
|-- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|9. | Executive shall not, without the Companys written consent by an authorized representative, at any time prior or subsequent to the execution of this Separation Agreement and
Release, disclose, use, remove or copy any confidential, trade secret or proprietary information he acquired during the course of his employment by the Company, including without limitation, any technical, actuarial, economic, financial,
procurement, provider, customer, underwriting, contractual, managerial, marketing or other information of any type that has economic value in the business in which the Company is engaged, but not including any previously published information or
other information generally in the public domain.
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|10. | In addition to any other part or term of this Separation Agreement and Release or the Employment Agreement, Executive agrees that he will not, (a) for a period
of one (1) year from the date of this Agreement, irrespective of the reason for the termination, either directly or indirectly, on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person: (1) make known to any person, firm, corporation or other
entity of any type, the names and addresses of any of the Companys customers, enrollees or providers or any other information pertaining to them; or (2) disrupt, solicit or influence or attempt to solicit, disrupt or influence any of the
Companys customers, providers, vendors, agents or independent contractors with whom the Executive became acquainted during the course of employment or service for the purpose of terminating such a persons or entitys

| | relationship with the Company or causing such a person or entity to associate with a competitor of the Company, and (b) for [a period of one
(1) year] [the six (6) month period] following the Termination Date undertake any employment or activity prohibited by the Employment Agreement. The prohibitions of this paragraph are not intended to deny employment opportunities
within the Executives field of employment but are limited only to those prohibitions necessary to protect the Company from unfair competition. In addition, Executive agrees that, for [a period of one (1) year] [the six (6) month
period]following the Termination Date, he shall not, directly or indirectly solicit, interfere with, hire, offer to hire or induce any person, who is or was an employee of the Company or any of its affiliates at the time of such solicitation,
interference, hiring, offering to hire or inducement, to discontinue his/her relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates or to accept employment by, or enter into a business relationship with, Executive or any other entity or person.

|11. | Executive further agrees that, in exchange for the consideration set forth in Section 2 hereof, Executive shall not make any disparaging comments and/or statements to anyone
either orally or in writing about the Company and/or its employees.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12. | Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an admission of any wrongful act, including but not limited to violation of any contract, express or implied, or any federal, state or
local employment laws or regulations, and nothing contained herein shall be used for any purpose except in proceedings related to the enforcement of this Separation Agreement and Release.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|13. | If any part or term of this Separation Agreement and Release is held invalid or unenforceable by any court or arbitrator, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect in any
way the validity or enforceability of any other part or term of this Separation Agreement and Release. In addition, if any court of competent jurisdiction construes the covenants contained in Section 10 hereof, or any part thereof, to be
unenforceable in any respect, the court may reduce the duration or scope to the extent necessary so that the provision is enforceable, and the provision, as reduced, shall then be enforceable.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|14. | Executive agrees and acknowledges that this Separation Agreement and Release recites all payments and benefits Executive is entitled to receive hereunder and under the Employment
Agreement, and that no other payments or benefits will be asserted or requested by Executive.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|15. | The Executive acknowledges that he has had an opportunity to consult and be represented by counsel of his own choosing in the review of this Separation Agreement and Release, and
that he has been advised by the Company to do so, that the Executive is fully aware of this Separation Agreement and Release and of its legal effect, that the preceding paragraphs recite the sole consideration for this Separation Agreement and
Release, and that Executive enters into this Separation Agreement and Release freely, without coercion, and based on the Executives own judgment and not in reliance upon any representation or promise made by the other party, other than those
contained herein. There may be no modification of the terms of this Separation Agreement and Release except in writing signed by the parties hereto including an appropriately authorized officer of the Company.

supersedes any prior agreements, representations or promises of any kind, whether written, oral, express or implied, with respect to the subject matters herein. This Separation Agreement and Release cannot be changed unless in writing, signed by
Executive and an authorized officer of the Company.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|17. | If there is any dispute between the Company and Executive over the terms or obligations under this Separation Agreement and Release, that dispute shall be resolved by binding
arbitration before a single neutral arbitrator who shall be a retired judge. The arbitration shall proceed in accordance with the then-current rules of the Commercial American Arbitration Association to the extent not inconsistent with this
Separation Agreement and Release. The judgment of the arbitrator shall be final, binding and nonappealable, and may be entered in any state or federal court having jurisdiction thereafter. The arbitrator shall be bound to apply and follow the
applicable state or federal laws in reaching a decision in this matter. Any disagreement regarding whether a dispute is required to be arbitrated pursuant to this Separation Agreement and Release shall be decided by the arbitrator. The Federal

this Separation Agreement and Release.
