 (d) During the Term, Employee shall not be engaged in any business activity
which, in the reasonable judgment of the CEO and the Board, conflicts with Employee’s duties hereunder, whether or not such activity is pursued for pecuniary advantage.

(b) Bonus Plans/Incentive Compensation Programs. In addition to Base Salary, during the Term, Employee shall be
eligible to participate in any bonus plans or incentive compensation programs, if any, as may be in effect from time to time, at a level consistent with his position and with the Company’s then current policies and practices
(“Bonus”). 
 (c) Benefits. 

(i) During the Term, Employee also shall be entitled to participate in all fringe benefits, if any, as may be in effect
from time to time which are generally available to the Company’s senior executive officers, and such other fringe benefits as the Board and/or Compensation Committee shall deem appropriate, subject to eligibility requirements thereof

(5) years. Such life insurance shall be in the amount of $900,000. Employee shall be the owner of the term life insurance policy obtained by the Company, and shall have the absolute right to designate the beneficiaries thereunder. The premiums

paragraph, purchase the amount of insurance, if any, that can be purchased at a cost substantially equivalent to the cost of obtaining such insurance for a healthy individual of Employee’s age and gender.

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the provisions of Sections 7, 8
and 9 shall survive the end of the Term and/or the termination of Employee’s employment hereunder for any reason, and shall remain in full force and effect thereafter. 

6. Payments Upon Termination and Change in Control. 

(a) Termination for Cause. In the event Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated for Cause, all of
Employee’s rights to his Base Salary, Benefits and Bonus, if any, shall immediately terminate as of the date of such termination, except that Employee shall be entitled to any earned and unpaid portion of his Base Salary and accrued Benefits up
to the date of termination, less all deductions or offsets for amounts owed by Employee to the Company. Employee shall not be entitled to any Bonus, prorated or otherwise. The Company shall have no further obligations to Employee under the
Agreement. 
 (b) Termination Due to Death or Disability. In the event Employee’s
employment hereunder is terminated due to his death or Disability, all of Employee’s rights to his Base Salary, Benefits and Bonus, if any, shall immediately terminate as of the date of such termination, except that Employee (or, in the event

date of termination less all deductions or offsets for amounts owed by Employee to the Company, and any accrued Bonus prorated through the date of termination. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Company stock option or stock incentive plan,
should Employee’s death occur within one (1) year following his termination for Disability, but prior to his exercise of any options vested at the date of termination, Employee’s estate shall be entitled to exercise Employee’s
options for (i) the remainder of the one (1) year period, or (ii) if earlier, until the earlier of (A) the latest date upon which the option could have expired by its original terms under any circumstances or (B) the
10th anniversary of the original date of grant of the
option. The foregoing clause (ii) shall apply to the extent needed to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). The Company shall have no further obligations to
Employee under the Agreement. 
 (c) Termination By Company Without Cause or By Employee
For Good Reason. If the Company terminates Employee’s employment other than for Cause or the occurrence of Employee’s death or Disability, or if Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason, or if Employee’s employment with
the Company terminates at the end of the Term because the Company and Employee have not entered into either an extension of this Agreement or a new employment agreement, Employee shall be entitled to receive and the Company shall pay a severance
benefit in the gross amount of one and one half
(1 1/2 ) times his Base Salary in effect at the time of such termination
in a lump sum payment minus appropriate tax and other withholdings (so long as Employee is not in material breach of this Agreement) (“Severance Payment”) on the sixtieth (60th) day following such termination (“Payment Date”), provided that (i) prior to the Payment Date the
Employee executes and delivers to the Company a General Release of all claims relating to his employment and termination from employment in a form provided by the Company (which General Release shall not affect any rights the Employee may have under
COBRA or under any vested award previously issued to Employee by the Company under any Company benefit plan), (ii) on or prior to the Payment Date, such General Release is not revoked, and (iii) as of the Payment Date, the Employee is not
in material breach of this

Agreement. The Employee understands that if the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence are not met, he shall not be entitled to the Severance Payment under this section. The Company shall
have no further obligations to Employee under this Agreement. 
 (d) Termination By Employee For Other Than
Good Reason. In the event Employee terminates his employment for other than Good Reason during the Term, all of Employee’s rights to his Base Salary, Benefits and Bonus, if any, shall immediately terminate as of the date of termination,
except that Employee shall be entitled to any earned and unpaid portion of his Base Salary and accrued Benefits up to the date of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to any Bonus, prorated or otherwise. The Company shall have no further
obligations to Employee under the Agreement. 
 (e) Payment Upon Change in Control. Notwithstanding any
other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if a “Change in Control” of the Company (as defined herein), shall occur during the Term, and prior to the 24 month anniversary of the consummation date of the Change in Control
(A) the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause, (B) Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason, in lieu of any other amounts payable under this Agreement, or (C) this Agreement expires by its terms and the
Company does not offer to renew this Agreement for an additional term to expire no earlier than the 24 month anniversary of the consummation date of the Change in Control, Employee shall receive a lump sum payment equal to two (2) times
Employee’s average annual W-2 compensation from the Company for the most recent five (5) taxable years ending before the date on which the Change in Control occurs (or such portion of such period during which Employee performed personal
services for the Company); provided, however, that if such lump sum payment, either alone or together with other payments or benefits, either cash or non-cash, that Employee has the right to receive from the Company, including, but not
limited to, accelerated vesting or payment of any deferred compensation, options, stock appreciation rights or any benefits payable to Employee under any plan for the benefit of employees, which would constitute an “excess parachute
payment” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code), then such lump sum payment or other benefit shall be reduced to the largest amount that will not result in receipt by Employee of a parachute payment (“Change in Control
Payment”). The Change in Control Payment will be paid to Employee within ten (10) days of his termination of employment following the Change in Control as provided above. A Change in Control will have no other effect on this Agreement
which will remain in full force and effect. 
 (i) Definition of Change in Control. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall mean an event or events, in which:

capacity as an employee hereunder, Employee will not, at any time, except with the express prior written consent of the Board, directly or indirectly, disclose, communicate or divulge to any Person or entity, or use for the benefit of any Person or

communicate, disparaging or derogatory statements or opinions about the Company or its Affiliates, including but not limited to, disparaging or derogatory statements or opinions about the Company’s or its Affiliates’ management, products
or services, to any third party. It shall not be a breach of this section for Employee to testify truthfully in any judicial or administrative proceeding or to make statements or allegations in legal filings that are based on Employee’s
reasonable belief and are not made in bad faith. The Company will not, at any time publish or communicate, disparaging or derogatory statements or opinions about the Employee, including but not limited to, disparaging or derogatory statements or

 (f)
Enforcement. Employee acknowledges that the covenants and agreements of this Section 7 (“Covenants”) herein are of a special and unique character, which give them peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be reasonably or
adequately compensated for in an action at law. Employee further acknowledges that any breach or threat of breach by him of any of the Covenants will result in irreparable injury to the Company for which money damages could not be adequate to
compensate the Company. Therefore, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies which the Company may have at law or in equity, to have an injunction issued by any
competent court enjoining and restraining Employee and/or all other Persons involved therein from committing a breach or continuing such breach. The remedies granted to the Company in this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to remedies
otherwise available to the Company at law or in equity. The Covenants contained in this Section 7 are independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action which Employee or any such other
Person may have against the Company shall not constitute a defense or bar to the enforcement of any of the Covenants. If the Company is obliged to resort to litigation to enforce any of the Covenants which has a fixed term, then such term shall be
extended for a period of time equal to the period during which a material breach of such Covenant was occurring, beginning on the date of a final court order (without further right of appeal) holding that such a material breach occurred, or, if
later, the last day of the original fixed term of such Covenant. 
 (g) Acknowledgements. Employee
expressly acknowledges that the Covenants are a material part of the consideration bargained for by the Company, and, without the agreement of Employee to be bound by the Covenants, the Company would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement.
Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Business of the Company and its services are highly competitive, and that the Covenants contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business
interests. In addition, Employee acknowledges that in the event his employment with the Company terminates, he will still be able to earn a livelihood without violating this Agreement, and that the Covenants contained in this Section 7 are
material conditions to his employment and continued employment with the Company. 
 (h) Scope. If any
portion of any Covenant or its application is construed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the remaining portions and their application shall not be affected thereby, and shall be enforceable without regard thereto. If any of the
Covenants is 

  
 Page 10 of 15
Pages 

 
determined to be unenforceable because of its scope, duration, geographical area or similar factor, then the court or other trier of fact making such determination shall modify, reduce or limit
such scope, duration, area or other factor, and enforce such Covenant to the extent it believes is lawful and appropriate. 
 (i) Business of the Company. The term “Business of the Company”, as used herein, shall mean the provision by the Company or its Affiliates of social services, counseling, client
monitoring and mentoring, substance abuse treatment and counseling, school support services, case management and foster care services to children, adults and families in community based settings such as a client’s home, school or workplace,
intake, assessment and referral, case management and network management services to governmental agencies and provider networks, educational tutoring, job readiness and private parole or probation, non-emergency medical transportation and any other
business in which the Company or its Affiliates were actually engaged or planning to be engaged during the Term. 

(j) Costs, Expenses in the Event of Breach. In the event that Employee breaches or attempts to breach the Covenants
contained in this Section 7, the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from Employee for all costs and expenses associated with any successful action to enforce any of the Covenants contained in Section 7, including but not limited to
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation. Should the Company file an action against Employee relating to a breach of the Covenants contained in Section 7, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Employee did not
breach any of those Covenants, Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company of all costs and expenses associated with defending against such action asserting a breach, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. 

8. Section 409A of the Code. 

(a) Amounts payable under this Agreement are intended either to be exempt from the rules of Section 409A of the Code
or to satisfy those rules and shall be construed accordingly. The Company shall not be liable to Employee with respect to any Agreement-related adverse tax consequences arising under Section 409A or other provision of the Code. 

(b) If any provision of this Agreement contravenes any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated under Code
Section 409A or could cause an amount payable hereunder to be subject to the interest and penalties under Code Section 409A, such provision of the Agreement shall be deemed automatically modified to maintain, to the maximum extent
practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for
the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this
Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean Separation from Service. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined for purposes of Code Section 409A), no payment shall be
made under Section 6(c) or 6(e) hereof prior to the six-month anniversary of Employee’s separation of service to the extent such six-month delay in payment is required to comply with Code Section 409A. To the extent that this
Section 8(c) 

  
 Page 11 of 15
Pages 

 
applies to any Severance Payment under Section 6(c) hereof, and the actions described in this sentence do not cause adverse tax consequences to be imposed under the Code, the Company shall,
as soon as practicable following Employee’s termination of employment, and after Employee executes and does not revoke the General Release of all claims as referenced in Section 6(c), deposit an amount equal to the gross amount of such
Severance Payment into an irrevocable Rabbi Trust in the form prescribed by Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 92-64. Such Rabbi Trust shall be established and maintained by the Company, at its own expense, pending the distribution of such
amount to Employee under this Agreement. The Trustee shall be a financial institution selected by the Company, and the Trustee shall invest all amounts deposited therein with the purpose of preserving the Trust principal. All principal and income
from the Rabbi Trust shall be paid to Employee on the first day following the six-month anniversary of Employee’s separation from service. The Trustee shall withhold or cause to be withheld all withholding taxes as may be required by applicable
law. 
 9. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Indulgences, Etc. Neither the failure, nor any delay, on the part of either party to exercise any right,
remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same, or of any other right, remedy,
power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective
unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver. 
 (b) Controlling
Law; Consent to Arbitration; Service of Process. 
 (i) This Agreement and all questions relating to its
validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement (including, without limitation, provisions concerning limitations of actions), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona (notwithstanding any
conflict-of-laws doctrines of such state or other jurisdiction to the contrary), and without the aid of any canon, custom or rule of law requiring construction against the draftsman. 

(ii) Except to the extent provided for in Section 7 above (relating to injunctive relief and other equitable
remedies), the Company and Employee agree that any claim, dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement, or otherwise in connection with Employee’s employment by the Company or termination of his employment
(including, without limitation, any such claim, dispute or controversy arising under any federal, state or local statute, regulation or ordinance or any of the Company’s employee benefit plans, policies or programs) shall be resolved solely and
exclusively by binding, confidential, arbitration. The arbitration shall be held in Tucson, Arizona (or at such other location as shall be mutually agreed by the parties). The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the National Rules for
the Resolution of Employment Disputes (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“the AAA”) in effect at the time of the arbitration, except that the arbitrator shall be selected by alternatively striking from a list
of five arbitrators supplied by the 

  
 Page 12 of 15

AAA. All fees and expenses of the arbitration, including a transcript if either requests, shall be borne equally by the parties, however, all costs for the services of the arbitrator shall be
borne solely by the Company. Each party is responsible for the fees and expenses of its own attorneys, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of proofs and post-hearing briefs (unless the party prevails on a claim for which
attorney’s fees are recoverable under law). In rendering a decision, the arbitrator shall apply all legal principles and standards that would govern if the dispute were being heard in court. This includes the availability of all remedies that
the parties could obtain in court. In addition, all statutes of limitation and defenses that would be applicable in court, will apply to the arbitration proceeding. The decision of the arbitrator shall be set forth in writing, and be binding and
conclusive on all parties. Any action to enforce or vacate the arbitrator’s award shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, if applicable, and otherwise by applicable state law. If either the Company or Employee improperly pursues any
claim, dispute or controversy against the other in a proceeding other than the arbitration provided for herein, the responding party shall be entitled to dismissal or injunctive relief regarding such action and recovery of all costs, losses and
attorney’s fees related to such action. 
 (iii) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process
being served in any suit, action or proceeding of any nature, by the mailing of a copy thereof by registered or certified first-class mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to them at their respective addresses set forth in
Section 9(c) hereof. Each of parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all claims of error by reason of any such service pursuant to the terms hereof (but does not waive any right to assert
lack of subject matter jurisdiction) and agrees that such service (A) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding and (B) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be
taken and held to be valid personal service. 
 (iv) Nothing in this Section 9(b) shall affect the right of
any party hereto to serve process in any manner permitted by law or affect the right of any party to bring proceedings against any other party in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions. 

(c) Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given, made and received only when delivered (personally, by courier service such as Federal Express, or by other messenger) or when deposited in the United States mails, registered or

 WHEREAS, the Company and Employee desire to
amend and restate the employment agreement upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the facts, mutual promises, and covenants contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1. Employment and Term. The Company hereby agrees to employ Employee and Employee hereby agrees
to work in the employ of the Company, for the period commencing on March 22, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), and if not previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, ending at the close of business on the third
(3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the
“Term”), and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 5 below. 
 2. Office and Duties.  
 (a) During the Term,
Employee shall serve as Executive Vice President and General Counsel of the Company (collectively, the “GC”), and shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO”), and be subject to the CEO’s
supervision, control and direction. Employee shall also serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as may be requested from time to time. 

(b) In his capacity as GC of the Company, Employee shall have such authority, perform such duties, discharge such
responsibilities and render such services as are customary to, and consistent with his position, subject to the authority and direction of CEO, and shall perform such additional duties and responsibilities as may be from time to time assigned to him
by the CEO and the Board. 
 (c) During the Term, Employee shall render his services diligently, faithfully and
to the best of his ability, and shall devote substantially all of his working time, energy, skill and best efforts to the performance of his duties hereunder, in a manner that will further the business and interests of the Company.

 (d) During the Term, Employee shall not be engaged in any business activity
which, in the reasonable judgment of the CEO and the Board, conflicts with Employee’s duties hereunder, whether or not such activity is pursued for pecuniary advantage. 

3. Compensation. 
 (a) Base Salary. In consideration of the services rendered by Employee to the Company during the Term, Employee shall receive an annual base salary of Four Hundred and Seven Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($407,000.00) (“Base Salary”), payable in equal periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices in effect from time to time. During the Term, Employee’s Base Salary shall be reviewed at
least annually by the CEO and the Board and/or a committee of the Board which has been delegated responsibility for employee compensation matters (such committee to be referred to herein as the “Compensation Committee”) in accordance with
the compensation policies and guidelines of the Company, and may be modified as a result of such review at the sole discretion of the Board and/or the Compensation Committee. 

(b) Bonus Plans/Incentive Compensation Programs. In addition to Base Salary, during the Term, Employee shall be
eligible to participate in any bonus plans or incentive compensation programs, if any, as may be in effect from time to time, at a level consistent with his position and with the Company’s then current policies and practices
(“Bonus”). 
 (c) Benefits. 

(i) During the Term, Employee also shall be entitled to participate in all fringe benefits, if any, as may be in effect
from time to time which are generally available to the Company’s senior executive officers, and such other fringe benefits as the Board and/or Compensation Committee shall deem appropriate, subject to eligibility requirements thereof
(collectively, the “Benefits”). 
 (ii) During the Term, in addition to the foregoing Benefits, the
Company shall, subject to the terms hereof, use its reasonable efforts to procure (if such term insurance is not already in effect on the date of this Agreement ) and maintain term life insurance on the life of Employee for a period of five
(5) years. Such life insurance shall be in the amount of $810,000. Employee shall be the owner of the term life insurance policy obtained by the Company, and shall have the absolute right to designate the beneficiaries thereunder. The premiums
in respect of such policy shall be paid by the Company for the shorter of (i) the period of five (5) years commencing on the later of (a) the date of this Agreement or (b) the date the insurance goes into effect or (ii) the
period Employee is employed by the Company hereunder; premiums in respect thereof shall thereafter be paid by Employee. 
 Employee agrees to submit to any physical examination required by the insurer of any such policy, and will otherwise cooperate with the Company in connection with any life insurance on Employee’s
life the Company may wish to obtain, provided, however, that the results of any such physical examination shall

Pages 

 
not be shared with the Company or used in any way in connection with Employee’s employment other than the procurement of insurance pursuant to this Subsection. In the event Employee is
determined to be suffering from a congenital defect or other illness or condition which would preclude the Company from obtaining the insurance referred to in the preceding paragraph at a cost substantially equivalent to the cost of obtaining such
insurance for a healthy individual of Employee’s age and gender, the Company shall, in lieu of purchasing the insurance in the amount set forth in the preceding paragraph, purchase the amount of insurance, if any, that can be purchased at a
cost substantially equivalent to the cost of obtaining such insurance for a healthy individual of Employee’s age and gender. 
 (d) Vacation. During the Term, Employee shall be entitled to the number of paid vacation days in each calendar year as determined by the Company from time to time for its senior executive officers.
Vacation days which are not used during any calendar year may not be accrued or carried-over to the next year, nor shall Employee be entitled to compensation for unused vacation days. 

(e) Business Expenses. During the Term, the Company shall pay or reimburse Employee for all reasonable expenses
incurred or paid by Employee in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder, upon timely presentation of expense statements or vouchers and such other information as the Company may reasonably require and in accordance with the generally
applicable policies and practices of the Company. The Company shall pay for one (1) round trip ticket per week from San Diego, California to Tucson, Arizona, if required, plus approved living expenses while working in Tucson, Arizona, including
a rental automobile, and temporary housing, and approved travel and entertainment expenses. 
 (f)
Withholding. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to such withholding taxes as may be required by any applicable law. 
 4. Representations of Employee. Employee represents to the Company that: (a) there are no restrictions, agreements or understandings whatsoever to which Employee is a party that would prevent,
or make unlawful, his execution of this Agreement and his employment hereunder; (b) his execution of this Agreement and his employment hereunder shall not constitute a breach of any contract, agreement or understanding, oral or written, to
which he is a party, or by which he is bound; and (c) he is of full capacity, free and able to execute this Agreement and to enter into this Agreement with the Company. 

5. Termination. This Agreement and Employee’s employment hereunder shall continue until terminated as provided

related organizations, including any entity managed by the Company (collectively referred to as “Affiliates”), or is indicted, convicted of, or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony; or

misconduct and that results, in either case, in material economic harm to the Company or its Affiliates; or 

(iii) Employee materially breaches any provision of this Agreement (including but not limited to the restrictive
covenants contained in Paragraph 7 below) or breaches any fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty owed to the Company or its Affiliates, and such breach continues uncured for a period 10 days after written notice from the Company to the Employee
specifying the failure, refusal, or violation and the Company’s intention to terminate this Agreement for Cause; or 
 (iv) Employee engages in conduct tending to bring the Company or its Affiliates into public disgrace; or 
 (v) Employee repeatedly neglects or refuses to perform his duties or responsibilities as directed by the CEO, the Board or any executive committee established by the Board, or violates any express
direction of any lawful rule or regulation established by the Company or the Board or any committee established by the Board which is consistent with the scope of Employee’s duties under this Agreement, and such failure, refusal, or violation
continues uncured for a period 10 days after written notice from the Company to Employee specifying the failure, refusal, or violation and the Company’s intention to terminate this Agreement for Cause; or

 (b) Termination upon Death/Termination by Company upon Disability of
Employee. The Employee’s employment will terminate upon his death. The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment hereunder at any time upon the Disability of Employee. The term,

not less than one hundred fifty (150) consecutive days or for an aggregate of one hundred eighty (180) days during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months. Periods where Employee can perform the essential functions of his job
with a reasonable accommodation shall not be included in the determination of a Disability hereunder. During any period of Disability, Employee agrees to submit to reasonable medical examinations upon the reasonable request, and at the expense, of
the Company. 
 (c) Termination By Company Without Cause. The Company shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement and Employee’s employment hereunder at any time without Cause and/or without the occurrence of Employee’s death or Disability upon thirty (30) days written notice to Employee. The effective date of such termination
shall be after the completion of the thirty (30) day notice period. 
 (d) Termination By Employee For
Good Reason. Employee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and his employment hereunder at any time during the Term for “Good Reason” upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the Company’s Board. The effective

 (e) Termination by Employee for Other than Good Reason. If Employee
shall desire to terminate his employment hereunder for other than Good Reason, he shall first give the Company not less than forty five (45) days prior written notice of termination. Upon a termination of Employee’s employment with the
Company under this Section 5(e), the effective date of termination shall be the date set forth in employee’s resignation notice (assuming such date is in compliance with the notice provisions of this Section 5(e)) or an earlier date
after the Company’s receipt of such notice as determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, but not earlier than the date on which the Company learned of Employee’s decision to terminate his employment for other than Good Reason.

 (f) Notice of Termination. Any termination, except for death, pursuant to this Section 5 shall be
communicated by a Notice of Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice which shall indicate those specific termination provisions in this Agreement relied upon and which sets forth in
reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Employee’s employment under the provisions so indicated. The Notice of Termination shall also set forth that Employee’s employment is
terminated and be delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth herein, the provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 shall survive the end of the Term and/or the termination of Employee’s employment hereunder for any reason, and shall remain in full force and effect thereafter. 

6. Payments Upon Termination and Change in Control. 

(a) Termination for Cause. In the event Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated for Cause, all of
Employee’s rights to his Base Salary, Benefits and Bonus, if any, shall immediately terminate as of the date of such termination, except that Employee shall be entitled to any earned and unpaid portion of his Base Salary and accrued Benefits up
to the date of termination, less all deductions or offsets for amounts owed by Employee to the Company. Employee shall not be entitled to any Bonus, prorated or otherwise. The Company shall have no further obligations to Employee under the
Agreement. 
 (b) Termination Due to Death or Disability. In the event Employee’s
employment hereunder is terminated due to his death or Disability, all of Employee’s rights to his Base Salary, Benefits and Bonus, if any, shall immediately terminate as of the date of such termination, except that Employee (or, in the event
that Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated due to Employee’s death, Employee’s heirs, personal representatives or estate) shall be entitled to any earned and unpaid portion of his Base Salary and accrued Benefits up to the
date of termination less all deductions or offsets for amounts owed by Employee to the Company, and any accrued Bonus prorated through the date of termination. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Company stock option or stock incentive plan,
should Employee’s death occur within one (1) year following his termination for Disability, but prior to his exercise of any options vested at the date of termination, Employee’s estate shall be entitled to exercise Employee’s
options for (i) the remainder of the one (1) year period, or (ii) if earlier, until the earlier of (A) the latest date upon which the option could have expired by its original terms under any circumstances or (B) the
10th anniversary of the original date of grant of the
option. The foregoing clause (ii) shall apply to the extent needed to avoid adverse tax consequences under 

  
 Page 6 of 16
Pages 

 
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). The Company shall have no further obligations to Employee under the Agreement. 

(c) Termination By Company Without Cause or By Employee For Good Reason. If the Company
terminates Employee’s employment other than for Cause or the occurrence of Employee’s death or Disability, or if Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason, or if Employee’s employment with the Company terminates at the end of
the Term because the Company and Employee have not entered into either an extension of this Agreement or a new employment agreement, Employee shall be entitled to receive and the Company shall pay a severance benefit in the gross amount of one and
one half (1 1/2) times his Base Salary in effect at the time of such
termination in a lump sum payment minus appropriate tax and other withholdings (so long as Employee is not in material breach of this Agreement) (“Severance Payment”) on the sixtieth (60th) day following such termination (“Payment Date”),
provided that (i) prior to the Payment Date the Employee executes and delivers to the Company, a General Release of all claims relating to his employment and termination from employment in a form provided by the Company (which General Release
shall not affect any rights the Employee may have under COBRA or under any vested award previously issued to Employee by the Company under any Company benefit plan), (ii) on or prior to the Payment Date, such General Release is not revoked, and
(iii) as of the Payment Date, the Employee is not in material breach of this Agreement. The Employee understands that if the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence are not met, he shall not be entitled to the Severance Payment under
this section. The Company shall have no further obligations to Employee under this Agreement. 
 (d)
Termination By Employee For Other Than Good Reason. In the event Employee terminates his employment for other than Good Reason during the Term, all of Employee’s rights to his Base Salary, Benefits and Bonus, if any, shall immediately
terminate as of the date of termination, except that Employee shall be entitled to any earned and unpaid portion of his Base Salary and accrued Benefits up to the date of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to any Bonus, prorated or
otherwise. The Company shall have no further obligations to Employee under the Agreement. 
 (e) Payment Upon
Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if a “Change in Control” of the Company (as defined herein), shall occur during the Term, and prior to the 24 month anniversary of the
consummation date of the Change in Control (A) the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause, (B) Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason, in lieu of any other amounts payable under this Agreement, or
(C) this Agreement expires by its terms and the Company does not offer to renew this Agreement for an additional term to expire no earlier than the 24 month anniversary of the consummation date of the Change in Control, Employee shall receive a
lump sum payment equal to two (2) times Employee’s average annual W-2 compensation from the Company for the most recent five (5) taxable years ending before the date on which the Change in Control occurs (or such portion of such
period during which Employee performed personal services for the Company); provided, however, that if such lump sum payment, either alone or together with other payments or benefits, either cash or non-cash, that Employee has the right
to receive from the Company, including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting or payment of any deferred compensation, options, stock appreciation rights or any benefits payable to Employee under any plan for the benefit of employees, which would
constitute an “excess parachute 

  
 Page 7 of 16
Pages 

 
payment” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code), then such lump sum payment or other benefit shall be reduced to the largest amount that will not result in receipt by Employee of a
parachute payment (“Change in Control Payment”). The Change in Control Payment will be paid to Employee within ten (10) days of his termination of employment following the Change in Control as provided above. A Change in Control will
have no other effect on this Agreement which will remain in full force and effect. 
 (i) Definition of
Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall mean an event or events, in which: 
 (A) any “person” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) (other than (i) the Company, (ii) any
subsidiary of the Company, (iii) any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company, or (iv) any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of
the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company), is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), together with all affiliates and Associates (as

then outstanding securities; 
 (B) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other
company, other than (i) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting
securities of the surviving entity), in combination with the ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, at least 65% of the combined voting power of
the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or (ii) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) after
which no “person” (with the method of determining “beneficial ownership” used in clause (A) of this definition) owns more than 25% of the combined voting power of the securities of the Company or the surviving entity of
such merger or consolidation; 
 (C) during any period of two consecutive years individuals who at the beginning

capacity as an employee hereunder, Employee will not, at any time, except with the express prior written consent of the Board, directly or indirectly, disclose, communicate or divulge to any Person or entity, or use for the benefit of any Person or

product development, research, know-how, policies, financial information, financial condition, business strategies and plans and other information of the Company or its Affiliates which is not
generally available to the public and which has been developed or acquired by the Company or its Affiliates with considerable effort and expense. Upon the expiration or termination of Employee’s employment under this Agreement, Employee shall
immediately deliver to the Company all memoranda, books, papers, letters, and other data (whether in written form or computer stored), and all copies of same, which were made by Employee or otherwise came into his possession or under his control at
any time prior to the expiration or termination of his employment under this Agreement, and which in any way relate to the Business of the Company as conducted or as planned to be conducted by the Company or its Affiliates on the date of the
expiration or termination. 
 (d) Intellectual Property. Employee will promptly communicate to the
Company, in writing when requested, all software, designs, techniques, concepts, methods and ideas, other technical information, marketing strategies and other ideas and creations pertaining to the Business of the Company which are conceived or
developed by Employee alone or with others, at any time (during or after business hours) while Employee is employed by the Company or its Affiliates. Employee acknowledges that all of those ideas and creations are inventions and works for hire, and
will be the Company’s exclusive property. Employee will sign any documents which the Company deems necessary to confirm its ownership of those ideas and creations, and Employee will cooperate with the Company in order to allow the Company to
take full advantage of those ideas and creations. 
 (e) Non-Disparagement. Employee will not, at any time

Employee’s reasonable belief and are not made in bad faith. The Company will not, at any time publish or communicate, disparaging or derogatory statements or opinions about the Employee, including but not limited to, disparaging or derogatory
statements or opinions about the Employee’s management, to any third party. It shall not be a breach of this section for a representative of the Company to testify truthfully in any judicial or administrative proceeding or to make statements or
allegations in legal filings that are based on his or her reasonable belief and are not made in bad faith. 
 (f)
Enforcement. Employee acknowledges that the covenants and agreements of this Section 7 (the “Covenants”) herein are of a special and unique character, which give them peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be reasonably or
adequately compensated for in an action at law. Employee further acknowledges that any breach or threat of breach by him of any of the Covenants will result in irreparable injury to the Company for which money damages could not be adequate to
compensate the Company. Therefore, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies which the Company may have at law or in equity, to have an injunction issued by any
competent court enjoining and restraining Employee and/or all other Persons involved therein from committing a breach or continuing such breach. The remedies granted to the Company in this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to remedies
otherwise available to the Company at 

  
 Page 10 of 16
Pages 

 
law or in equity. The Covenants contained in this Section 7 are independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action which Employee or any
such other Person may have against the Company shall not constitute a defense or bar to the enforcement of any of the Covenants. If the Company is obliged to resort to litigation to enforce any of the Covenants which has a fixed term, then such term
shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during which a material breach of such Covenant was occurring, beginning on the date of a final court order (without further right of appeal) holding that such a material breach occurred,
or, if later, the last day of the original fixed term of such Covenant. 
 (g) Acknowledgements. Employee
expressly acknowledges that the Covenants are a material part of the consideration bargained for by the Company, and, without the agreement of Employee to be bound by the Covenants, the Company would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement.
Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Business of the Company and its services are highly competitive, and that the Covenants contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business
interests. In addition, Employee acknowledges that in the event his employment with the Company terminates, he will still be able to earn a livelihood without violating this Agreement, and that the Covenants contained in this Section 7 are
material conditions to his employment and continued employment with the Company. 
 (h) Scope. If any
portion of any Covenant or its application is construed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the remaining portions and their application shall not be affected thereby, and shall be enforceable without regard thereto. If any of the
Covenants is determined to be unenforceable because of its scope, duration, geographical area or similar factor, then the court or other trier of fact making such determination shall modify, reduce or limit such scope, duration, area or other
factor, and enforce such Covenant to the extent it believes is lawful and appropriate. 
 (i) Business of the
Company. The term “Business of the Company”, as used herein, shall mean the provision by the Company or its Affiliates of social services, counseling, client monitoring and mentoring, substance abuse treatment and counseling, school
support services, case management and foster care services to children, adults and families in community based settings such as a client’s home, school or workplace, intake, assessment and referral, case management and network management
services to governmental agencies and provider networks, educational tutoring, job readiness and private parole or probation, non-emergency medical transportation and any other business in which the Company or its Affiliates were actually engaged or
planning to be engaged during the Term. 
 (j) Costs, Expenses in the Event of Breach. In the event that
Employee breaches or attempts to breach the Covenants contained in this Section 7, the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from Employee for all costs and expenses associated with any successful action to enforce any of the Covenants
contained in Section 7, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation. Should the Company file an action against Employee relating to a breach of the Covenants contained in Section 7, and a court of
competent jurisdiction determines that Employee did not breach any of those Covenants, Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company of all costs and expenses associated with defending against such action asserting a breach, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

 8. Section 409A of the Code.  

(a) Amounts payable under this Agreement are intended either to be exempt from the rules of Section 409A of the Code
or to satisfy those rules and shall be construed accordingly. The Company shall not be liable to Employee with respect to any Agreement-related adverse tax consequences arising under Section 409A or other provision of the Code. 

(b) If any provision of this Agreement contravenes any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated under Code
Section 409A or could cause an amount payable hereunder to be subject to the interest and penalties under Code Section 409A, such provision of the Agreement shall be deemed automatically modified to maintain, to the maximum extent
practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for
the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this
Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean Separation from Service. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined for purposes of Code Section 409A), no payment shall be
made under Section 6(c) or 6(e) hereof prior to the six-month anniversary of Employee’s separation of service to the extent such six-month delay in payment is required to comply with Code Section 409A. To the extent that this
Section 8(c) applies to any Severance Payment under Section 6(c) hereof , and the actions described in this sentence do not cause adverse tax consequences to be imposed under the Code, the Company shall, as soon as practicable following
Employee’s termination of employment, and after Employee executes and does not revoke the General Release of all claims as referenced in Section 6(c), deposit an amount equal to the gross amount of such Severance Payment into an
irrevocable Rabbi Trust in the form prescribed by Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 92-64. Such Rabbi Trust shall be established and maintained by the Company, at its own expense, pending the distribution of such amount to Employee under
this Agreement. The Trustee shall be a financial institution selected by the Company, and the Trustee shall invest all amounts deposited therein with the purpose of preserving the Trust principal. All principal and income from the Rabbi Trust shall
be paid to Employee on the first day following the six-month anniversary of Employee’s separation from service. The Trustee shall withhold or cause to be withheld all withholding taxes as may be required by applicable law. 

9. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Indulgences, Etc. Neither the failure, nor any delay, on the part of either party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same, or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with
respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

 (b) Controlling Law; Consent to Arbitration; Service of Process. 

(i) This Agreement and all questions relating to its validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement (including,
without limitation, provisions concerning limitations of actions), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona (notwithstanding any conflict-of-laws doctrines of such state or other jurisdiction to the
contrary), and without the aid of any canon, custom or rule of law requiring construction against the draftsman. 
 (ii) Except to the extent provided for in Section 7 above (relating to injunctive relief and other equitable remedies), the Company and Employee agree that any claim, dispute or controversy arising
under or in connection with this Agreement, or otherwise in connection with Employee’s employment by the Company or termination of his employment (including, without limitation, any such claim, dispute or controversy arising under any federal,
state or local statute, regulation or ordinance or any of the Company’s employee benefit plans, policies or programs) shall be resolved solely and exclusively by binding, confidential, arbitration. The arbitration shall be held in Tucson,
Arizona (or at such other location as shall be mutually agreed by the parties). The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration
Association (“the AAA”) in effect at the time of the arbitration, except that the arbitrator shall be selected by alternatively striking from a list of five arbitrators supplied by the AAA. All fees and expenses of the arbitration,
including a transcript if either requests, shall be borne equally by the parties, however, all costs for the services of the arbitrator shall be borne solely by the Company. Each party is responsible for the fees and expenses of its own attorneys,
experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of proofs and post-hearing briefs (unless the party prevails on a claim for which attorney’s fees are recoverable under law). In rendering a decision, the arbitrator shall apply all legal
principles and standards that would govern if the dispute were being heard in court. This includes the availability of all remedies that the parties could obtain in court. In addition, all statutes of limitation and defenses that would be applicable
in court, will apply to the arbitration proceeding. The decision of the arbitrator shall be set forth in writing, and be binding and conclusive on all parties. Any action to enforce or vacate the arbitrator’s award shall be governed by the
Federal Arbitration Act, if applicable, and otherwise by applicable state law. If either the Company or Employee improperly pursues any claim, dispute or controversy against the other in a proceeding other than the arbitration provided for herein,
the responding party shall be entitled to dismissal or injunctive relief regarding such action and recovery of all costs, losses and attorney’s fees related to such action. 

(iii) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process being served in

any right to assert lack of subject matter jurisdiction) and agrees that such service (A) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding and (B) shall, to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service. 
 (iv) Nothing in this Section 9(b)
shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any manner permitted by law or affect the right of any party to bring proceedings against any other party in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions. 

(c) Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given, made and received only when delivered (personally, by courier service such as Federal Express, or by other messenger) or when deposited in the United States mails, registered or
