the bonus is earned have been released; provided, however, that if calculation of Employee’s Performance Bonus is not administratively practicable due to events beyond the control of Employer, then Employer may delay payment of the Performance
Bonus provided that the payment is made during the first taxable year of Employee in which the calculation of the amount of the payment is administratively practicable.

 

3.     Benefits.

 

3.1.     Expense Reimbursement. Employer shall promptly reimburse Employee for all out-of-pocket

such plans and programs are applicable to other similarly situated employees of Employer.

 

3.3.     Leave Time. During the Employment Period, Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation and
leave days each calendar year in accordance with the leave policies established by Employer from time to time, but in no event less than thirty-eight (38) days per year. Any leave time not used during each fiscal year of Employer may be carried over
into the next year to the extent permitted by Employer policy.
  

3.4     Equity Plans.  During the Employment Period, the Chief Executive Officer of
MEDNAX shall recommend to the Compensation Committee that Employee receive, on an annual basis following the Effective Date, and at the same time as other executive officers of Employer, grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted
stock, deferred stock, bonus stock, awards payable in stock or other forms of stock based award (each an “Equity Award”) pursuant to MEDNAX's Amended and Restated 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended, or any other similar

other executive officers of Employer. Every Equity Award made to Employee shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms of the applicable Equity Plan, and shall be made subject to an award agreement that is consistent
with terms applicable to other executive officers of Employer. Employee shall also be eligible to participate in MEDNAX's non-qualified employee stock purchase plan and any successor plan. Employee acknowledges Employee’s participation in the

or whose election or nomination for election during such Two-Year Period was previously approved as provided in this sentence.

 

5.     Compensation and Benefits Upon Termination.

 

5.1.     Cause. If Employee's employment is terminated for Cause, Employer shall pay Employee’s
Base Salary through the termination date specified in Section 4.1 at the rate in effect at the termination date.
  

5.2.     Disability. In the event of Employee’s Disability, Employee shall continue to receive
Employee’s Base Salary for the first ninety (90) days of Disability. If Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4.2 in connection with Employee’s Disability, Employee shall receive Employee’s monthly
Base Salary for a period of twelve (12) months after the termination date, plus any amounts as may be due under Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.11 and 5.14. Amounts payable under this Section 5.2 are not
intended to be in lieu of benefits under any long-term disability plan Employer may maintain from time to time, but any benefits and payments under any such plan shall offset the payments to be made in the first sentence of this Section, and
Employee’s entitlement to benefits under such plan, if any, shall be determined solely by the plan’s terms.
  

5.3.     Death. Upon Employee's death during the Employment Period, Employer shall pay to the person
or entity designated by Employee in a notice filed with Employer or, if no person is designated, to Employee’s estate any unpaid amounts of Base Salary to the date of Employee's death, plus any amounts as may be due under Sections 5.8,
5.11 and 5.14 below. Any payments Employee's spouse, beneficiaries or estate may be entitled to receive pursuant to any pension plan, employee welfare benefit plan, life insurance policy, or similar plan or policy then maintained by
Employer shall be determined and paid in accordance with the written instruments governing the respective plans and policies. In the event of Employee's death during the Employment Period, Employer shall notify Employee's designee or estate of the
Equity Awards held by Employee and the procedures pursuant to which all vested stock options may be exercised and other Equity Awards may be realized under the terms applicable to such awards.

 

5.4.     Termination by Employer Without Cause. If Employer terminates Employee's employment in
accordance with Section 4.4, then (i) Employer shall pay Employee’s Base Salary through the termination date specified in Section 4.4 at the rate in effect at such termination date, plus any amount due under
Section 5.8 hereof; (ii) Employer shall pay Employee a bonus calculated and paid in accordance with Section 5.11 hereof; (iii) Employer shall continue

 
 
  7
 
 


    
 


 
  
 to
pay Employee’s monthly Base Salary for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the termination date; (iv) within thirty (30) days of the first (1st)  anniversary
of the termination date, Employer shall pay Employee an amount equal to the greater of (A) 1.5 times Employee’s Average Annual Performance Bonus (as defined below) or (B) 1.5 times Employee’s target Performance Bonus amount set forth on
Exhibit B; and (v) if applicable, Employee shall vest into the Equity Awards granted to Employee that are outstanding (the “Accelerated Awards”) as set forth in Section 5.14 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Average Annual Performance Bonus” shall be equal to the average of the percentage of the Performance Bonus target achieved by Employee for the three (3) full calendar years prior to the termination date (or such lesser
period as Employee may have been employed by Employer), and calculated based on Employee’s Base Salary and target Performance Bonus in Employee’s current position.  For illustration purposes, if Employee earned 40%, 100% and 70% of
Employee’s target Performance Bonus in each of the three full calendar years prior to termination, and Employee’s current target Performance Bonus was 100% of Base Salary, and Base Salary was $450,000.00, then Employee’s Average
Annual Performance Bonus would equal $315,000.00. ((40%+ 100% + 70%) / 3 x 100% x $450,000.00 = $315,000.00).     

 

5.5.     Termination by Employee Due to Poor Health. If Employee terminates Employee’s
employment under this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.5 hereof, Employer shall pay to Employee any unpaid amounts of Base Salary to the termination date specified in Section 4.5, plus any disability payments otherwise payable
by or pursuant to plans provided by Employer, plus any amounts as may be due under Sections 5.8, 5.11 and 5.14 below.

 

5.6.     Termination by Employee. If Employee’s employment under this Agreement terminates
pursuant to Section 4.6 hereof, Employer shall pay to Employee any unpaid amounts of Base Salary to the termination date specified in Section 4.6, plus any amounts as may be due under Section 5.8 below. In the event
that the termination date specified by Employer is less than ninety (90) days after the date of Employer's receipt of notice as contemplated by Section 4.6, then Employer shall continue Employee's Base Salary for a period of days equal to
ninety (90) minus the number of days from Employee's notice to the termination date.
  

5.7.     Termination for Good Reason. If Employee’s employment under this Agreement is
terminated pursuant to Section 4.7, then Employer shall (i) pay Employee’s Base Salary through the termination date specified in Section 4.7 at the rate in effect at such termination, plus any amounts as may be due
under Section 5.8 hereof; (ii) continue to pay Employee’s Base Salary for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the termination date; (iii)  pay Employee a bonus calculated and paid in accordance with Section 5.11
hereof; (iv) within ninety (90) days of Employee’s termination date pursuant to Section 4.7, pay Employee, solely in consideration of services rendered by Employee prior to termination, an additional bonus with respect to
Employer’s fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, in an amount equal to the greater of (A) 1.5 times Employee’s Average Annual Performance Bonus or (B) 1.5 times Employee’s target Performance Bonus amount set forth on
Exhibit B; and (v) if applicable, Employee shall vest into the Accelerated Awards as set forth in Section 5.14 hereof.
  

5.8.     Expense Reimbursement. Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable business

  8
 
 


    
 


 
  

5.9.     Continuation of Benefit Plans. Employee shall be entitled to continuation of health, medical,
hospitalization and other similar health insurance programs on the same basis as regular, full-time employees of Employer and their eligible dependents during the period that Employee is receiving Base Salary payments under Section 5 of this
Agreement and, in all cases, as provided by any applicable law. Following such period of continued benefit plan coverage, Employee and each of his eligible dependents shall be entitled to elect for continuation of coverage provided pursuant to
Section 601 et. seq. of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29 USC §1101 (“COBRA”).

 

5.10     Period for Exercising Stock Options After Termination. Except as to incentive stock options
granted in accordance with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), after termination of Employee’s employment under this Agreement for any reason other than pursuant to Section 4.1, Employee shall
be allowed a period of the greater of (i) twenty-four (24) months after termination of Employee under this Agreement or (ii) twelve months from the applicable vesting date during which to exercise any vested options to purchase MEDNAX’s common
stock or vested stock appreciation rights and realize any other Equity Awards that may be granted or made under any Equity Plan; provided, however, that in no event shall the period during which Employee may exercise any vested stock option or
vested stock appreciation right be extended pursuant to this Section 5.10 to a date that is later than the earlier of (i) the latest date upon which the stock right could have expired by its original terms under any circumstances or
(ii) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the original date of grant of the stock right. In all other respects, the terms of the applicable Equity Plan shall control the terms and
conditions of any Equity Awards.
  

5.11.     Performance Bonus.  In the situations described in Sections 5.2, 5.3,
5.4, 5.5 and 5.7, within thirty (30) days following termination of this Agreement, Employee will be paid, solely in consideration of services rendered by Employee prior to termination, a bonus with respect to Employer's
fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, equal to Employee’s target Performance Bonus amount set forth on Exhibit B, multiplied by the number of days in the fiscal year prior to and including the date of termination and divided
by three hundred sixty five (365).
  

5.12.     Section 409A Compliance.

 

(a)     General. It is the intention of both
Employer and Employee that the benefits and rights to which Employee could be entitled in connection with termination of employment comply with Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and other guidance promulgated or issued thereunder
(“Section 409A”), and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with that intention. If Employee or Employer believes, at any time, that any such benefit or right does not so comply, it shall
promptly advise the other and shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights such that they comply with Section 409A of the Code (with the most limited possible economic effect on Employee and on
Employer).

(b)     Distributions on Account of Separation from
Service. If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of Employee’s employment shall be made unless and until Employee incurs a
“separation from service”, within the meaning of Section 409A.
  

(c)     6 Month Delay for Specified Employees.

 

(i)     If Employee is a “specified employee”, then no
payment or benefit that is payable on account of Employee’s “separation from service”, as that term is defined for purposes of Section 409A, shall be made before the date that is six months after Employee’s “separation
from service” (or, if earlier, the date of Employee’s death) if and to the extent that such payment or benefit constitutes deferred compensation (or may be nonqualified deferred compensation) under Section 409A and such deferral is
required to comply with the requirements of Section 409A. Any payment or benefit delayed by reason of the prior sentence shall be paid out or provided in a single lump sum at the end of such required delay period in order to catch up to the
original payment schedule.
  

(ii)     For purposes of this provision, Employee
shall be considered to be a “specified employee” if, at the time of his separation from service, Employee is a “key employee”, within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Code, of Employer (or any person or entity with whom
Employer would be considered a single employer under Section 414(b) or Section 414(c) of the Code) any stock in which is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise.

 

(iii)     Unless otherwise required to comply with
Section 409A, a payment or benefit shall not be deferred pursuant to this provision if:
  

(x)     it is not made on account of
Employee’s “separation from service”, (y)     it is required to be paid no later than within two and a half (2 1⁄2) months after the end of the taxable year of Employee in which the payment or benefit is
no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture”, as that term is defined for purposes of Section 409A, or (z) the payment satisfies the following requirements: (A) it is being paid or provided due to Employer’s termination
of Employee’s employment without Cause as set forth in Section 4.4 hereof or Employee’s termination of employment after a Change in Control for the reasons set forth in Section 4.7 hereof, (B) it does not exceed two (2)
times the lesser of (1) Employee’s annualized compensation from Employer for the calendar year prior to the calendar year in which the termination of Employee’s employment occurs, and (2) the maximum amount of compensation that may be
taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which Employee’s employment terminates, and (C) the payment is required under this Agreement to be paid no later than the last day of the
second calendar year following the calendar year in which Employee incurs a “separation from service”.

(d)     No Acceleration of Payments. Neither Employer
nor Employee, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Section 409A, except in compliance with Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount shall be paid prior to the earliest date
on which it may be paid without violating Section 409A.
  

(e)     Treatment of Each Installment as a Separate
Payment. For purposes of applying the provisions of Section 409A to this Agreement, each separately identified amount to which Employee is entitled under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In addition, to the extent permissible
under Section 409A, any series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

 

(f)     Reimbursements and In-Kind Benefits.

 

(i)     Any reimbursements by Employer to
Employee of any eligible expenses pursuant to Section 3.1 or 5.8 of this Agreement, that are not excludible from Employee’s income for Federal income tax purposes (“Taxable Reimbursements”) shall be made on or
before the last day of the taxable year of Employee following the year in which the expense was incurred.
  

(ii)     The amount of any Taxable Reimbursements,
and the value of any in-kind benefits to be provided to Employee under this Agreement, during any taxable year of Employee shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year of
Employee.
  

(iii)     The right to Taxable Reimbursements, or
in-kind benefits, shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
  

5.13.     Release. Employer shall provide Employee with a general release in the form attached as
Exhibit C (subject to such modifications as Employer may reasonably request) within seven (7) days after Employee’s termination date.  Payments or benefits to which Employee may be entitled pursuant to this Section 5 (other
than any accrued but unpaid Base Salary and employee benefits as of the end of the Employment Period) (the “Severance Amounts”) shall be conditioned upon Employee executing the general release within twenty one (21) days after
receiving it from Employer and the general release becoming irrevocable upon the expiration of seven (7) days following Employee’s execution of it. Payment of the Severance Amounts shall be suspended during the period (the “Suspension
Period”) that begins on Employee’s termination date and ends on the date (“Suspension Termination Date”) that is thirty-five (35) days after Employee’s termination date; provided, however, that this
suspension shall not apply, and Employer shall be required to provide, any continued health insurance coverage that would be required under Section 5.9 hereof during the Suspension Period. If Employee executes the general release and
the general release becomes irrevocable by no later than the Suspension Termination Date, then payment of any Severance Amounts that were suspended pursuant to this provision shall be made in the first payroll period that follows the Suspension
Termination Date, and any Severance Amounts that are payable after the Suspension Termination Date shall be paid at the times provided in Section 5.

5.14.     Vesting of Incentive Awards. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement or
any Equity Plan then maintained by MEDNAX, and in addition to any other payments or benefits provided in this Agreement upon a termination of Employee’s employment, all Equity Awards granted to Employee by MEDNAX prior to termination of
this Agreement shall immediately become fully vested, non-forfeitable, and, if applicable, exercisable, in the event Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.7.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Equity Plans or the Equity Awards, in the event of a Change in Control
immediately following which neither the common stock of MEDNAX nor the common equity of its successor, parent or subsidiary is listed for trading on a national securities exchange (a “Going Private Transaction”), then all unvested
Equity Awards granted to Employee shall be adjusted so that in lieu of Employee’s right to receive shares of common stock of MEDNAX pursuant to the terms of such Equity Awards, Employee shall be entitled to receive, for each share of common
stock of MEDNAX that Employee would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to such Equity Awards, an amount of cash equal to the amount per share of common stock of MEDNAX paid to the shareholders of MEDNAX in such Going Private Transaction, as
determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, in each case consistent with the vesting schedule of such Equity Awards and shall remain subject to the acceleration provisions set forth in this Section 5.14.

 

6.     Successors; Binding Agreement.

 

6.1.     Successors. Employer shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) acquiring a majority of Employer's voting common stock or any other successor to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of Employer to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the
same manner and to the same extent that Employer would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place and Employee hereby consents to any such assignment. In such event, "Employer" shall mean Employer as previously defined and any
successor to its business and/or assets which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Section 6 or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of law. This Section shall
not limit Employee’s ability to terminate this Agreement in the circumstances described in Section 4.7.
  

6.2.     Benefit. This Agreement and all rights of Employee under this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by Employee's personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If Employee should die after the termination date and amounts would have been payable
to Employee under this Agreement if Employee had continued to live, including under Section 5 hereof, then such amounts shall be paid to Employee's devisee, legatee, or other designee or, if there is no such designee, Employee's
estate.
  

7.     Conflicts.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and revokes any and all prior or existing agreements, written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof, and this Agreement shall be solely determinative
of the subject matter hereof.
  
 
  12
 
 


    
 


 
  

8.     Restrictive Covenants; Confidential Information; Work Product; Injunctive Relief.

 

8.1.     No Material Competition. Employer and Employee acknowledge and agree that a strong
relationship and connection exists between Employer and its current and prospective patients, referral sources, and customers as well as the hospitals and healthcare facilities at which it provides professional services. Employer and Employee
further acknowledge and agree that the restrictive covenants described in this Section are designed to enforce, and are ancillary to or part of, the promises contained in this Agreement and are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate
interests of Employer in the following: (1) the use and disclosure of the Confidential Information as described in Section 8.4; (2) the professional development activities described in Section 1.2; and (3) the goodwill of Employer, as
promoted by Employee as provided in Section 1.2. The foregoing listing is by way of example only and shall not be construed to be an exclusive or exhaustive list of such interests. Employee acknowledges that the restrictive covenants set
forth below are of significant value to Employer and were a material inducement to Employer in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that the goodwill and other proprietary interest of Employer will suffer
irreparable and continuing damage in the event Employee enters into competition with Employer in violation of this Section.

 

Therefore, Employee agrees that, except with respect to services performed under this Agreement on behalf of Employer, Employee
shall not, at any time during the Restricted Period (as defined below), for Employee or on behalf of any other person, persons, firm, partnership, corporation or employer, intentionally, knowingly, or willingly participate or engage in or own an
interest in, directly or indirectly, any individual proprietorship, partnership, corporation, joint venture, trust or other form of business entity, whether as an individual proprietor, partner, joint venturer, officer, director, member, employee,
consultant, independent contractor, stockholder, lender, landlord, finder, agent, broker, trustee, or in any manner whatsoever, if such entity or its affiliates is engaged in, directly or indirectly, “Employer’s Business,”
as defined on Exhibit A hereto. Employee acknowledges that, as of the date hereof, Employee’s responsibilities will include matters affecting the businesses of Employer listed on Exhibit A. For purposes of this Section 8, the
“Restricted Period” shall mean the Employment Period plus (i) eighteen (18) months in the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 4.1, and (ii) twenty-four (24) months in the event the Agreement is terminated
for any other reason.
  

8.2.     No Hire. Employee further agrees that Employee shall not, at any time during the
Employment Period and for a period of eighteen (18) months immediately following termination of this Agreement for any reason, for Employee or on behalf of any other person, persons, firm, partnership, corporation or employer, intentionally,
knowingly, or willingly employ, or intentionally, knowingly, or willingly permit any company or business directly or indirectly controlled by Employee to (a) employ or otherwise engage (i) any person who is a then current employee or exclusive
independent contractor of Employer or one of its affiliates, or (ii) any person who was an employee or exclusive independent contractor of Employer or one of its affiliates in the prior six (6) month period, or (b) take any action that would
reasonably be expected to induce an employee or independent contractor of Employer or one of its affiliates to leave his employment or engagement with Employer or one of its affiliates (including without limitation for or on behalf of a subsequent
employer of Employee).
  
 
  13
 
 


    
 


 
  

8.3     Non-Solicitation. Employee further agrees that Employee shall not, at any
time during the Employment Period and for a period of eighteen (18) months immediately following termination of this Agreement for any reason, for Employee or on behalf of any other person, persons, firm, partnership, corporation or employer,
intentionally, knowingly, or willingly solicit or accept business from or take any action that would reasonably be expected to materially interfere with, diminish or impair the valuable relationships that Employer or its affiliates have with (i)
hospitals or other health care facilities with which Employer or its affiliates have contracts to render professional services or otherwise have established relationships, (ii) patients, (iii) referral sources, (iv) vendors, (v) any other clients of
Employer or its affiliates, or (vi) prospective hospitals, patients, referral sources, vendors or clients whose business Employee was aware that Employer or any affiliate of Employer was in the process of soliciting at the time of Employee's
termination (including potential acquisition targets).
  

8.4.     Confidential Information. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Employer shall
provide Employee with access to “Confidential Information.” As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means any and all confidential, proprietary or trade secret information, whether disclosed,
directly or indirectly, verbally, in writing or by any other means in tangible or intangible form, including that which is conceived or developed by Employee, applicable to or in any way related to: (i) patients with whom Employer has a
physician/patient relationship; (ii) the present or future business of Employer; or (iii) the research and development of Employer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Confidential Information includes: (a) the development and
operation of Employer’s medical practices, including information relating to budgeting, staffing needs, marketing, research, hospital relationships, equipment capabilities, and other information concerning such facilities and operations and
specifically including the procedures and business plans developed by Employer for use at the hospitals where Employer conducts its business; (b) contractual arrangements between Employer and insurers or managed care associations or other payors;
(c) the databases of Employer; (d) the clinical and research protocols of Employer, including coding guidelines; (e) the referral sources of Employer; (f) other confidential information of Employer that is not generally known to the public that
gives Employer the opportunity to obtain an advantage over competitors who do not know or use it, including the names, addresses, telephone numbers or special needs of any of its patients, its patient lists, its marketing methods and related data,
lists or other written records used in Employer's business, compensation paid to employees and other terms of employment, accounting ledgers and financial statements, contracts and licenses, business systems, business plan and projections, and
computer programs. The parties agree that, as between them, this Confidential Information constitutes important, material, and confidential trade secrets that affect the successful conduct of Employer's business and its goodwill. Employer
acknowledges that the Confidential Information specifically enumerated above is special and unique information and is not information that would be considered a part of the general knowledge and skill Employee has or might otherwise obtain.

 
  
 14
 
 


    
 


 
  

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information that (i) was known by Employee from a third
party source before disclosure by or on behalf of Employer, (ii) becomes available to Employee from a source other than Employer that is not, to Employee's knowledge, bound by a duty of confidentiality to Employer, (iii) becomes generally available
or known in the industry other than as a result of its disclosure by Employee, or (iv) has been independently developed by Employee and may be disclosed by Employee without breach of this Agreement, provided, in each case, that Employee shall bear
the burden of demonstrating that the information falls under one of the above-described exceptions.
  

Additionally, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement between Employer and
Employee shall prevent Employee from filing a charge, sharing information and communicating in good faith, without prior notice to Employer, with any federal government agency having jurisdiction over Employer or its operations, and cooperating in
any investigation by any such federal government agency; provided, however, that to the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that if such an administrative claim is made, Employee shall not be entitled to recover any individual monetary
relief or other individual remedies thereunder.
  

Employee agrees that the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed Confidential Information for purposes of this Section. Employee shall
keep the terms of this Agreement strictly confidential and will not, without the prior written consent of Employer, disclose the details of this Agreement to any third party in any manner whatsoever in whole or in part, with the exception of
Employee’s representatives (such as tax advisors and attorneys) who need to know such information.
  

Employee agrees that Employee will not at any time, whether during or subsequent to the term of Employee's employment with Employer,
in any fashion, form or manner, unless specifically consented to in writing by Employer, either directly or indirectly, use or divulge, disclose, or communicate to any person, firm or corporation, in any manner whatsoever, any Confidential
Information of any kind, nature, or description, subject to applicable law. The parties agree that any breach by Employee of any term of this Section 8.4 resulting in material harm to MEDNAX or Employer is a material breach of this Agreement and
shall constitute “Cause” for the termination of Employee’s employment hereunder pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof. In the event that Employee is ordered to disclose any Confidential Information, whether in a legal or a regulatory
proceeding or otherwise, Employee shall provide Employer with prompt written notice of such request or order so that Employer may seek to prevent disclosure or, if that cannot be achieved, the entry of a protective order or other appropriate
protective device or procedure in order to assure, to the extent practicable, compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the case of any disclosure required by law, Employee shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information
that Employee is ordered to disclose in a legally binding subpoena, demand or similar order issued pursuant to a legal or regulatory proceeding.

 
 All Confidential
Information, and all equipment, notebooks, documents, memoranda, reports, files, samples, books, correspondence, lists, other written and graphic records, in any media (including electronic or video) containing Confidential Information or relating
to the business of Employer, which Employee shall prepare, use, construct, observe, possess, or control shall be and remain Employer's sole property (collectively "Employer Property"). Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, or
earlier upon Employer's request, Employee shall promptly deliver to Employer all Employer Property, retaining none.
  

  
15
 
 


    
 


 
  

8.5.     Ownership of Work Product.  Employee agrees and acknowledges that (i) all copyrights,
patents, trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights associated with any ideas, concepts, techniques, inventions, processes, or works of authorship developed or created by Employee during the course
of performing work for Employer and any other work product conceived, created, designed, developed or contributed by Employee during the term of this Agreement that relates in any way to Employer's Business (collectively, the “Work
Product”), shall belong exclusively to Employer and shall, to the extent possible, be considered a work made for hire within the meaning of Title 17 of the United States Code. To the extent the Work Product may not be considered a work
made for hire owned exclusively by Employer, Employee hereby assigns to Employer all right, title, and interest worldwide in and to such Work Product at the time of its creation, without any requirement of further consideration. Upon request of
Employer, Employee shall take such further actions and execute such further documents as Employer may deem necessary or desirable to further the purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation separate assignments of all right, title, and
interest in and to all rights of copyright and all right, title, and interest in and to any inventions or patents and any reissues or extensions which may be granted therefore, and in and to any improvements, additions to, or modifications thereto,
which Employee may acquire by invention or otherwise, the same to be held and enjoyed by Employer for its own use and benefit, and for the use and benefit of Employer’s successors and assigns, as fully and as entirely as the same might be held
by Employee had this assignment not been made.
  

8.6.     Clearance Procedure for Proprietary Rights Not Claimed by Employer. In the event that
Employee wishes to create or develop, other than on Employer’s time or using Employer’s resources, anything that may be considered Work Product but to which Employee believes Employee should be entitled to the personal benefit of,
Employee agrees to follow the clearance procedure set forth in this Section. Before beginning any such work, Employee agrees to give Employer advance written notice and provide Employer with a sufficiently detailed written description of the work
under consideration for Employer to make a determination regarding the work. Unless otherwise agreed in a writing signed by Employer prior to receipt, Employer shall have no obligation of confidentiality with respect to such request or description.
Employer will determine in its sole discretion, within thirty (30) days after Employee has fully disclosed such plans to Employer, whether rights in such work will be claimed by Employer. If Employer determines that it does not claim rights in such
work, Employer agrees to so notify Employee in writing and Employee may retain ownership of the work to the extent that such work has been expressly disclosed to Employer. If Employer fails to so notify Employee within such thirty (30) day period,
then Employer shall be deemed to have agreed that such work is not considered Work Product for purposes of this Agreement. Employee agrees to submit for further review any significant improvement, modification, or adaptation that could reasonably be
related to Employer's Business so that it can be determined whether the improvement, modification, or adaptation relates to the business or interests of Employer. Clearance under this procedure does not relieve Employee of the restrictive covenants
set forth in this Section 8.
  
 
  16
 
 


    
 


 
  

8.7.     Non-Disparagement. For a period of ten (10) years after the termination of this Agreement,
Employee will not, directly or indirectly, as an individual or on behalf of a firm, corporation, partnership or other legal entity, intentionally, knowingly, or willingly make any comment that would reasonably be expected to be materially
disparaging or negative to any other person or entity regarding Employer or any of its affiliates, agents, attorneys, employees, officers and directors, Employee’s work conditions or circumstances surrounding Employee’s separation from
Employer or otherwise impugn or criticize the name or reputation of Employer, its affiliates, agents, attorneys, employees, officers or directors, orally or in writing.

 

8.8.     Review by Employee. Employee has carefully read and considered the terms and provisions of
this Section 8, and having done so, agrees that the restrictions set forth in this Section 8 are fair and reasonably required for the protection of the interests of Employer. In the event that any term
or provision set forth in this Section 8 shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties hereto agree that such invalid or unenforceable term(s) or provision(s) may be severed from this Agreement
without, in any manner, affecting the remaining portions hereof. Without limiting other possible remedies available to Employer, Employee agrees that injunctive or other equitable relief will be available to enforce the covenants set forth in this
Section, such relief to be without the necessity of posting a bond. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any part of the covenants set forth in this Section shall be held to be invalid, overbroad, or unenforceable by an arbitration
panel or a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties hereto agree that such invalid, overbroad, or unenforceable provision(s) may be modified or severed from this Agreement without, in any manner, affecting the remaining portions of this
Section 8 (all of which shall remain in full force and effect). In the event that any provision of this Section 8 related to time period or areas of restriction shall be declared by an arbitration panel or a court of competent
jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period, area or activities such arbitration panel or court deems reasonable and enforceable, said time period or areas of restriction shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make the
geographic or temporal restrictions or activities reasonable and enforceable.
  

8.9.     Survival; Notice of Breach and Right to Cure. If Employer reasonably
believes that Employee has breached a provision of this Section 8, Employer shall provide prompt written notice thereof to Employee that explains such reasonably believed breach (the “Alleged Breach”). Employer agrees to work in good
faith with Employee to provide Employee a reasonable opportunity to promptly cure such Alleged Breach. In the event that Employee, acting in good faith, promptly takes actions that would reasonably be expected to cure the Alleged Breach, including,
with respect to a comment made by Employee that Employer reasonably believes is in breach of Section 8.7, by Employee retracting such comment, then Employee shall be deemed not to be in breach of this Section 8 with respect to the Alleged Breach.
Employer and Employee further agree that Employee shall not be deemed to be in breach of any term of Section 8.4 unless such breach results in material harm to MEDNAX or Employer.

 
 The
provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Employee’s employment with Employer. The provisions of this Section 8 shall apply during the time Employee is receiving Disability
payments from Employer as a result of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof. In the event of a breach of this Section 8 by Employee, as finally determined pursuant to Section 11 hereof, Employer
retains the right to terminate any continuing payments to Employee provided for in Section 5 of this Agreement. In the event of a breach of any provisions of this Section 8 by Employee, as finally determined pursuant to Section
11
  
 
  17
 
 


    
 


 
  

hereof, the period for which those provisions would remain in effect shall be extended for a period of time equal to that period
beginning when such breach commenced and ending when the activities constituting such breach shall have been finally terminated, in each case as finally determined pursuant to Section 11 hereof.

 
 The
provisions of this Section 8 are expressly intended to benefit and be enforceable by other affiliated entities of Employer, who are express third party beneficiaries hereof. Employee shall not assist others in engaging in any of the
activities described in the foregoing restrictive covenants.
  

9.     Section 280G.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement to the contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by Employer or its affiliates to Employee or for Employee’s benefit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
otherwise (the “Covered Payments”) constitute parachute payments (the “Parachute Payments”) within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, but for this Section 9, would be subject to the excise tax
imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then prior to
making the Covered Payments, a calculation shall be made comparing (i) the Net Benefit (as defined below) to Employee of the Covered Payments after payment of the Excise Tax to (ii) the Net Benefit to Employee if the Covered Payments are limited to
the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount under (ii) above will the Covered Payments be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of
the Covered Payments is subject to the Excise Tax (that amount, the “Reduced Amount”). “Net Benefit” shall mean the present value of the Covered Payments net of all federal, state, local, foreign income, employment and excise
taxes.
  

(a)     Any such reduction shall be made in
accordance with Section 409A and the following:
  

(i)     the Covered Payments consisting of cash
severance benefits that do not constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be reduced first, in reverse chronological order; and

 

(ii)     all other Covered Payments consisting of
cash payments, and Covered Payments consisting of accelerated vesting of equity based awards to which Treas. Reg. § 1.280G-1 Q/A-24(c) does not apply, and that in either case do not constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to
Section 409A, shall be reduced second, in reverse chronological order;
  

(iii)     all Covered Payments consisting of cash
payments that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be reduced third, in reverse chronological order; and

 
 
  18
 
 


    
 


 
  

(iv)     all Covered Payments consisting of
accelerated vesting of equity-based awards to which Treas. Reg. § 1.280G-1 Q/A-24(c) applies shall be the last Covered Payments to be reduced.

 

(b)     Any determination required under this
Section 9 shall be made in writing in good faith by an independent accounting firm selected by Employer (the “Accountants”). Employer and Employee shall provide the Accountants with such information and documents as
the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 9. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations required by this Section 9, the Accountants may rely on reasonable,
good-faith assumptions and approximations concerning the application of Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code. The Accountants’ determinations shall be final and binding on Employer and Employee. Employer shall be responsible for all fees
and expenses incurred by the Accountants in connection with the calculations required by this Section 9.

 

(c)     It is possible that after the determinations
and selections made pursuant to this Section 9, Employee will receive Covered Payments that are in the aggregate more than the amount intended or required to be provided after application of this Section 9
(“Overpayment”) or less than the amount intended or required to be provided after application of this Section 9 (“Underpayment”).

 

(i)     In the event that: (A) the Accountants
determine, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against either Employer or Employee that the Accountants believe has a high probability of success, that an Overpayment has been made or (B) it is established
pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal Revenue Service proceeding that has been finally and conclusively resolved that an Overpayment has been made, then Employee shall pay any such Overpayment to Employer together with interest
at the applicable federal rate (as defined in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code) from the date of Employee’s receipt of the Overpayment until the date of repayment.

 

(ii)     In the event that: (A) the Accountants,
based upon controlling precedent or substantial authority, determine that an Underpayment has occurred or (B) a court of competent jurisdiction determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment will be paid promptly by Employer to
or for the benefit of Employee together with interest at the applicable federal rate (as defined in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code) from the date the amount should have otherwise been paid to Employee until the payment date.

 

10.     Rabbi Trust Funding. Employer shall, in no event later than five (5) business days immediately
prior to the earlier of (a) a Change in Control or (b) termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.4 or 4.7 hereof (each of the foregoing (a) and (b), a “Funding
Event”), establish one or more rabbi trusts to fulfill the potential severance obligations of Employer that would arise in the event of termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.3,
4.4, 4.5 or 4.7 hereof. Prior to a Funding Event, Employer shall deposit in each such rabbi trust cash in an amount necessary to maintain such rabbi trust with such financial

 
 
  19
 
 


    
 


 
  

institution(s). Upon the first Funding Event to occur after the Effective Date, Employer shall deposit in such rabbi trusts an
aggregate amount of cash reasonably determined by Employer to be an amount sufficient to provide for full payment of all potential severance obligations of Employer that have arisen or would arise as a result of a termination of Employee’s
employment pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.7 hereof, as well as for any other compensation that Employer is contractually obligated as of the date of termination to pay to Employee at a
future date.
  

Each such rabbi trust shall be a U.S.-based grantor trust established consistent with the terms of Revenue Procedure 92-64, 1992-2
C.B. 422 (Aug. 17, 1992) with a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Employee serving as the third-party trustee thereof, under the terms of which the assets of the trust may be used, in the absence of Employer’s insolvency, solely
for purposes of fulfilling Employer’s obligation to make payments to Employee hereunder in the event of termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.7
hereof (in the case termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Sections 4.3 and 4.5, only in the event such termination occurs after a Funding Event). Employer shall be responsible for all reasonable
costs of establishing and maintaining each such rabbi trust and the terms of each such rabbi trust shall be reasonably acceptable to Employee.

 

11.     Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or
any alleged breach hereof shall be finally determined by a single arbitrator, jointly selected by Employee and Employer, provided that if Employee and Employer are unable to agree upon a single arbitrator after reasonable efforts, the arbitrator
shall be an impartial arbitrator selected by the American Arbitration Association. Each party hereto shall share equally the costs of the arbitrator, and the parties agree that the costs of arbitration shall not be subject to reapportionment by the
arbitrator; provided, however, that if following a termination of Employee’s employment that follows a Change in Control or if following a termination of Employee’s employment for Good Reason that follows any person other than Roger J.
Medel commencing service as the senior most executive officer of MEDNAX, Employee seeks arbitration to enforce the terms of this Agreement, Employer shall bear all costs associated with such arbitration, including but not limited to all costs of the
arbitrator, and shall reimburse Employee on a monthly basis for his reasonable legal and other expenses, including all fees, incurred in connection with any such arbitration. The arbitration proceedings shall be held in Sunrise, Florida, unless
otherwise mutually agreed by the parties, and shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitration panel
may be entered and enforced by any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any such arbitration shall be treated as confidential by all parties thereto, except as otherwise provided by law or as otherwise necessary to enforce any judgment or order issued
by the arbitrators.
  

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Employer or Employee shall require immediate injunctive relief, then the party
shall be entitled to seek such relief in any court having jurisdiction, and if the party elects to do so, the other party hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Florida and to the applicable
service of process. Employee and Employer hereby waive and agree not to assert, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim that (i) they are not subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) they are immune from any legal
process issued by such courts and (iii) any litigation or other proceeding commenced in such courts is brought in an inconvenient forum. In the event that either party hereto

 
 
  20
 
 


    
 


 
  

brings suit seeking injunctive relief, the party found to be at fault shall pay all reasonable court costs and attorneys' fees of the
other, whether such costs and fees are incurred in a court of original jurisdiction or one or more courts of appellate jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Employer brings suit against Employee seeking injunctive relief,
Employer agrees to advance all of Employee’s reasonable legal and other expenses, including all fees, incurred by Employee in connection with such action, provided, however, that if Employer ultimately prevails in seeking injunctive relief,
Employee shall reimburse Employer all such advanced legal fees and other expenses.
  

12.     Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Florida without regard to its conflict of laws principles to the extent that such principles would require the application of laws other than the laws of the State of Florida.

 

13.     Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in

14.     Benefits: Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be for the benefit of and binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and, where applicable, assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may not assign the rights or benefits hereunder without the prior
written consent of Employer.
  

15.     Severability.  The invalidity of any one or more of the words, phrases,
sentences, clauses or sections contained in this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining portions of this Agreement or any part thereof, all of which are inserted conditionally on their being valid in law, and, in the event
that any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses or sections contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid word or words, phrase or phrases, sentence or sentences, clause or
clauses, or section or sections had not been inserted. If such invalidity is caused by length of time or size of area, or both, the otherwise invalid provision will be considered to be reduced to a period or area, which would cure such
invalidity.

16.     Waivers.  The waiver by either party hereto of a breach or violation of any term
or provision of this Agreement shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation.
  

17.     Damages.  Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent Employer or
Employee from seeking and recovering from the other damages sustained by either or both of them as a result of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement.

 

18.     No Third Party Beneficiary.  Except as provided in Section 8.9, nothing
expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any person (other than the parties hereto and, in the case of Employee, Employee’s heirs, personal representative(s) and/or legal representative)
any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, have been made by either party with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement which agreements or
representations are not set forth expressly in this Agreement, and this Agreement supersedes any other employment agreement between Employer and Employee.

 EXHIBIT A

 
 BUSINESS OF EMPLOYER

 
 As of the date hereof,
Employer, directly or through its affiliates, provides professional medical services and all aspects of practice management services in medical practice areas that include, but are not limited to, the following (collectively referred to herein as
“Employer’s Business”):
  

(1) Neonatology, including hospital well baby care;

(2) Maternal-Fetal Medicine, including general obstetrics services;

(3) Pediatric Cardiology;
 (4) Pediatric Intensive
Care, including Pediatric Hospitalist Care;
 (5) Newborn hearing screening services;

(6) Pediatric Surgery;
 (7) Pediatric Emergency
Medicine;
 (8) Anesthesiology, critical care medicine and pain management; and

(9) Radiology and Teleradiology.
  

References to Employer’s Business in this Agreement shall include such other medical service lines, practice management services
and other businesses in which Employer is engaged during the Employment Period; provided, that to be considered a part of Employer's Business, Employer must have engaged in such other service line, practice management service or other
business at least six (6) months prior to the termination date of this Agreement. For purposes of this Exhibit A, businesses of Employer shall include the businesses conducted by Employer’s subsidiaries, entities under common control and
affiliates as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such affiliates shall include the professional corporations and associations whose operating results are consolidated with Employer for financial reporting purposes.

 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Employer acknowledges and agrees to the following exceptions and clarifications regarding the scope of Employer's Business.
  

A.     Hospital Services. Employer and Employee acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, Employer does
not currently operate hospitals, hospital systems or universities. Nevertheless, the businesses of hospitals, hospital systems and universities would be the same as Employer’s Business where such hospitals, hospital systems or universities
provide or contract with others to provide some or all of the medical services included in Employer’s Business. Therefore, the parties desire to clarify their intent with respect to the limitations on Employee’s ability to work for or
contract with others to provide services for a hospital, hospital system or university during the Employment Period and during the Restricted Period. Section 8.1 shall not be deemed to restrict Employee’s ability to work for a hospital,
hospital system or university if the hospital, hospital system or university does not provide any of the medical services included in Employer’s Business. Furthermore, even if a hospital, hospital system or university provides medical services
that are included in Employer’s Business, Employee may work for such hospital, hospital system or university if Employee has no direct supervisory responsibility for or

 
 
   
 
 


    
 


 
  

involvement in the hospital’s, hospital system’s or university’s provision of medical services that are
Employer’s Business. For the avoidance of doubt, Employer and Employee agree that if Employee becomes the Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel, or Chief Executive Officer of a hospital system or health system, or other executive officer of
similar level to the foregoing, that Employee shall not be in breach of the provisions of this Agreement. Finally, Employer agrees that Employee may hold direct supervisory responsibility for or be involved in the medical services of a hospital,
hospital system or university that are included in Employer’s Business so long as such hospital, hospital system or university is located at least ten (10) miles from a medical practice owned or operated by Employer or its affiliate. Subject
to paragraph B below, the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to the extent that, after the date hereof, Employer enters into the business of operating a hospital or hospital system.

 

B.     De Minimus Exception. Employer agrees that a medical service line (other than those listed in
items 1 through 9 above), practice management service or other business in which Employer is engaged shall not be considered to be a part of Employer's Business if such medical service line, practice management service or other business constitutes
less than three percent (3%) of Employer's annual revenues.
  

C.     Divested Lines of Service. Employer agrees that any medical service line (including those
listed in items (1) through (9) above), practice management, or other business in which Employer is engaged that is divested pursuant to a disposition, sale of assets or equity, or otherwise after the Effective Date shall not be considered to be a
part of Employer’s Business effective as of the effective date of such divestiture.
  

D.     Certain Ownership Interests.  It shall not be deemed to be a violation of Section
8.1 for Employee to: (i) own, directly or indirectly, one percent (1%) or less of a publicly-traded entity that has a market capitalization of $1 billion or more; (ii) own, directly or indirectly, five percent (5%) or less of a publicly-traded
entity that has a market capitalization of less than $1 billion; or (iii) own, directly or indirectly, less than ten percent (10%) of a privately-held business or company, if Employee is at all times a passive investor with no board representation,
management authority or other special rights to control operations of such business or company.
  

 
  

  
 
 
 


    
 


 
  
 EXHIBIT B

 
 COMPENSATION

 
  

Performance Bonus: Target of One Hundred Percent (100%) of Employee’s Base Salary with a Maximum Bonus potential of Two Hundred Percent
(200%) of Employee’s Base Salary
  

Equity Compensation: Employee’s annual equity compensation grant target amount shall be at least $1,350,000, subject to the approval of
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
  

 
  

 
  

  
 
 
 


    
 


 
  
 EXHIBIT C

FORM OF RELEASE
  

GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS

 

1.     Dominic J. Andreano (“Employee”), for himself and his family, heirs, executors,
administrators, legal representatives and their respective successors and assigns, in exchange for the consideration received pursuant to Section 5.[ ] of that certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2020, by and
between Employee and Employer, to which this release is attached as Exhibit C (the “Employment Agreement”), does hereby release and forever discharge _____________________ (“Employer”), its subsidiaries,
affiliated companies, successors and assigns, and its current or former directors, officers, employees, shareholders or agents in such capacities (collectively with Employer, the “Released Parties”) from any and all actions,
causes of action, suits, controversies, claims and demands whatsoever, for or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, whether known or unknown including, but not limited to, all claims under any applicable laws arising under or in
connection with Employee’s employment or termination thereof, whether for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, tort, breach of express or implied employment contract, wrongful discharge, intentional infliction of emotional distress, or
defamation or injuries incurred on the job or incurred as a result of loss of employment. Employee acknowledges that Employer encouraged him to consult with an attorney of his choosing, and through this General Release of Claims encourages Employee
to consult with his attorney with respect to possible claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”) and that he understands that the ADEA is a Federal statute that, among other things, prohibits discrimination on
the basis of age in employment and employee benefits and benefit plans. Without limiting the generality of the release provided above, Employee expressly waives any and all claims under ADEA that he may have as of the date hereof. Employee further
understands that by signing this General Release of Claims he is in fact waiving, releasing and forever giving up any claim under the ADEA as well as all other laws within the scope of this paragraph 1 that may have existed on or prior to the date
hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph 1 to the contrary, this General Release of Claims shall not apply to (i) any actions to enforce rights to receive any payments or benefits which may be due Employee pursuant to Section 5.[ ]
of the Employment Agreement, or under any of Employer’s employee benefit plans, (ii) any rights or claims that may arise as a result of events occurring after the date this General Release of Claims is executed, (iii) any indemnification
rights Employee may have as a former officer or director of Employer or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, (iv) any claims for benefits under any directors’ and officers’ liability policy maintained by Employer or its subsidiaries
or affiliated companies in accordance with the terms of such policy, and (v) any rights as a holder of equity securities of Employer.

 

2.     Employee represents that he has not filed against the Released Parties any complaints, charges, or
lawsuits arising out of his employment, or any other matter arising on or prior to the date of this General Release of Claims, and covenants and agrees that he will never individually or with any person file, or commence the filing of, any charges,
lawsuits, complaints or proceedings with any governmental agency, or against the Released Parties with respect to any of the matters released by Employee pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof (a “Proceeding”).

 
 
   
 
 


    
 


 
  

3.     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement or any other
agreement between Employer and Employee shall prevent Employee from filing a charge, sharing information and communicating in good faith, without prior notice to Employer, with any federal government agency having jurisdiction over Employer or its
operations, and cooperating in any investigation by any such federal government agency; However, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that if such an administrative claim is made, Employee shall not be entitled to recover any
individual monetary relief or other individual remedies.
  

4.     Employee hereby acknowledges that Employer has informed him that he has up to twenty-one (21) days to
sign this General Release of Claims and he may knowingly and voluntarily waive that twenty-one (21) day period by signing this General Release of Claims earlier. Employee also understands that he shall have seven (7) days following the date on which
he signs this General Release of Claims within which to revoke it by providing a written notice of his revocation to Employer.

 

5.     Employee acknowledges that this General Release of Claims will be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State.

 

6.     Employee acknowledges that he has read this General Release of Claims, that he has been advised that
he should consult with an attorney before he executes this general release of claims, and that he understands all of its terms and executes it voluntarily and with full knowledge of its significance and the consequences thereof.

 

7.     This General Release of Claims shall take effect on the eighth day following Employee’s
execution of this General Release of Claims unless Employee’s written revocation is delivered to Employer within seven (7) days after such execution.
