    FOURTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”)
      dated as of August 12, 2021, is by and between Centene Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
      N.A., a national banking association, as trustee.

     

    WHEREAS, the Company has executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture, dated as of October 7, 2020 (the “Base Indenture” and, together with this Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”) providing for the
      issuance from time to time of one or more Series of the Company’s debentures, notes or other debt instruments.

    

    

    WHEREAS, Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture provides for the Company and the Trustee to supplement the Base Indenture without the consent of any Holder
      to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of debentures, notes or other debt instruments of any Series as permitted by the Base Indenture.

    

    

    WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Base Indenture, Centene wishes to provide for the issuance of 2.625% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”), the form, terms and conditions thereof to be set forth as provided in this Supplemental Indenture.

     

    WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Trustee execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture, and all requirements necessary to make this
      Supplemental Indenture a valid, binding and enforceable instrument in accordance with its terms, and to make the Notes, when executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Company, have
      been done and performed, and the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized in all respects.

     

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
      sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

     

    ARTICLE 1

     

    APPLICATION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE AND DEFINITIONS

     

    Section 1.01.  Application of this Supplemental Indenture.

     

    The terms and provisions contained in the Base Indenture will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Supplemental Indenture and the
      Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of the Base Indenture conflicts with the express
      provisions (including the definitions set forth in Sections 1.03 and 1.04) of this Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture will govern and be controlling in respect of the Notes (and only with respect to the Notes). For
      the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any other provision of this Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture and any amendments or modifications to the terms of the Base Indenture made herein are expressly and solely for
      the benefit of the Holders of the Notes (and not for the benefit of any other Series of Notes (as defined in the Base Indenture)). Unless otherwise expressly specified, references in this Supplemental Indenture to specific Article numbers or Section
      numbers refer to Articles and Sections contained in this Supplemental Indenture, and not the Base Indenture or any other document.

    (7)    money market or mutual funds

          converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the Voting Stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction is converted into or exchanged for Voting Stock (other
          than Disqualified Stock) of the surviving or transferee Person constituting a majority of the outstanding shares of such Voting Stock of such surviving or transferee Person (immediately after giving effect to such issuance).

     

    Notwithstanding the above in this definition, the following shall not constitute a Change of Control: a transaction or series of transactions in which
      (x) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (y) the direct or indirect Beneficial Owners of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following such transaction or transactions are

    “Fair Market Value” means the price that would be negotiated in an arm’s-length transaction for cash between a willing seller and a willing and able buyer, neither of which is under any compulsion to complete the

      such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Officers executing such Notes as evidenced by their execution of the Notes.

     

    The certificated Notes shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods or may be produced in any other manner,
      provided that such method is permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which such Notes may be listed, all as determined by the Officers executing such Notes as
      evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

    (2)           the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date) that would be due if
          such Notes matured on the Par Call Date, discounted to such Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points,

     

    plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

    (d)           Any redemption of the Notes may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state
          that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all of such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be
          rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed.

     

    (e)          Other

          than as specifically provided in this Section 3.01, any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 of the Base Indenture.

          Company shall commence the Change of Control Offer by sending by electronic transmission (for Global Notes) or first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of the Notes at such Holder’s address appearing in the Note Register, a
          notice the terms of which shall govern the Change of Control Offer stating:

     

    (1)           that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.03 and Section 4.06, that a Change of Control has occurred and the circumstances and relevant facts regarding the Change of Control;

     

    (2)           the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.06 (the “Offer Amount”), the purchase price set forth
          in Section 4.06 (the “Purchase Price”), the Offer Period and the Change of Control Payment Date (each as defined below);

    (4)           that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest;

     

    (5)           that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

     

    (6)          that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer may elect to have Notes purchased equal to $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 only;

     

    (7)          that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note
          completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice before the close of business on the third Business Day before the Change of
          Control Payment Date;

     

    (8)          that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile
          transmission, letter or electronic transmission setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note (or portions thereof) the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have

    (9)           [Reserved];

     

    (10)         that Holders whose Notes were purchased in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer); and

     

    
      18

      
        

    

    (11)         any other procedures the Holders must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and the procedures that Holders must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof)
          for payment.

     

    (d)          The

          Change of Control Offer shall remain open for a period of at least five (5) Business Days but no more than 60 days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”).  No later than five (5) Business Days (and in any event no later than the 60th day following the Change of Control) after the termination of the Offer Period (the
          “Change of Control Payment Date”), the Company shall purchase the Offer Amount or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in
          response to the Change of Control Offer.  Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.  The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as
          practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

     

    (e)          On

          or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

     

    (1)           accept for payment the Offer Amount of Notes or portions of Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered;

     

    (2)           deposit with the Paying Agent funds in an amount equal to the Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn; and

          and that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.03.

     

    (f)           The Paying Agent (or the Company, if acting as the Paying Agent) shall promptly (but not later than 60 days from the date of the Change of Control) send to each Holder of Notes validly tendered the Purchase Price deposited with the Paying
          Agent by the Company.  In the event that any portion of the Notes surrendered is not purchased by the Company, the Company shall promptly execute and issue a new Note in a principal amount equal to such unpurchased portion of the Note
          surrendered, and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Base Indenture, the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal
          amount to the unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided, however, that each such new
          Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.  Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof.

          such Regular Record Date.

     

    
      19

      
        

    

    (h)          The

          Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the Change of Control Offer.  To
          the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with Section 4.06, this Section 3.03 or any other provisions of the Indenture, the Company shall comply with applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be
          deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 4.06, this Section 3.03 or such other provision by virtue of such compliance.

     

    (i)           If Holders of not less than 90.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Company (or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in
          lieu of the Company as described in Section 4.06(b)) purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party, as the case may be, shall have the right, upon at least 15 but not more than 60
          days prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such initial purchase, to purchase all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such initial purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in the applicable
          Change of Control Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of such second purchase (subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest
          Payment Date falling prior to such second purchase date).

     

    (j)           Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.03, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Base Indenture.

    ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

     

    Section 4.01.  SEC Reports.

     

    (a)          Whether

          or not required, so long as the Notes are outstanding, the Company will file with the SEC (unless the SEC will not accept such filing), within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and deliver to the Trustee within 15 days
          after the filing of the same would be required by the SEC, copies of the quarterly and annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports, if any, which the Company would be required to file with the SEC if subject to the
          reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding that the Company may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, so long as the Notes are outstanding the Company
          will file with the SEC, to the extent permitted, and provide the Trustee with such annual reports and such information, documents and other reports specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the
          SEC’s rules and regulations.  The Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports referred to in this section to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes if the Company has filed such reports with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system or any
          successor system and such reports are publicly available.

     

    
      20

      
        

    

    (b)          Delivery

          of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information
          contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

     

    Section 4.02.  Taxes.

     

    The Company shall pay, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments and governmental levies,
      except such as are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

     

    Section 4.03.  Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

     

    The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or
      take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of the Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
      hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution
      of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

     

    Section 4.04.  Liens.

     

    (a)          The

          Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual Liens of any kind (other than Permitted Liens)
          against or upon any of their respective properties or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, or any proceeds, income or profit therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, to secure any Indebtedness of the Company unless
          prior to, or contemporaneously therewith, the Notes are equally and ratably secured by a Lien on such property, assets, proceeds, income or profit; provided, however, that if such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the Notes, the Lien securing such Indebtedness will be subordinated and junior to the Lien securing the Notes
          with the same relative priority as such Indebtedness has with respect to the Notes.

     

    (b)          Any

          Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.04(a) shall provide by its terms that such Lien should be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien that
          gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes.

     

    (c)          With

          respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted under this Section 4.04 to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such
          Indebtedness.

    Section 4.05.  Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

     

    (a)          The

          Board of Directors of the Company may designate any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default and if that designation otherwise is consistent with the definition of an
          Unrestricted Subsidiary.

     

    (b)          Any

          designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a Board Resolution of the Company giving effect to such designation and an Officers’
          Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions.  If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an
          Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the Indenture.  The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will only be permitted if no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

     

    (c)          Any

          Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall also be deemed an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

     

    Section 4.06.  Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control.

     

    (a)          Upon

          the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall, within 30 days following the date upon which a Change of Control occurred, make an offer (the “Change
            of Control Offer”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3.03.  Each Holder shall have the right to accept such offer and require the Company to repurchase all or any portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000
          in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer at a purchase price, in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”), equal to
          101.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to, but excluding, the Change of Control Payment Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
          record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date falling prior to the Change of Control Payment Date).

     

    (b)          The

          Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in
          compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption of
          all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to the Indenture as provided in Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, unless and until there is a Default in the payment of the Redemption Price on the applicable Redemption Date or the redemption is
          not consummated due to the failure of a condition precedent contained in the applicable redemption notice to be satisfied.  A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control and may be conditional upon the occurrence of a
          Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

          by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with Section 5.01 of the Base Indenture;

          comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the Notes;

     

    (g)          default

          under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is
          Guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that default:

     

    (A)      is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness at its express maturity prior to the expiration of any applicable grace period (a “Payment

            Default”); or

    and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has

    (h)          failure

          by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final non-appealable judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $300.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a
          period of 90 days;

     

    (i)          the

          Company or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of its Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

    (D)      makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

     

    (E)       admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due or otherwise admits its insolvency; and

     

    (j)           a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

     

    (A)      is for relief against the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of its Subsidiaries that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; or

     

    (B)      appoints a receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, liquidator, trustee or custodian of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, when taken together, would constitute a
          Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or

     

    (C)      orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

     

    
      24

      
        

    

    and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 consecutive days.”

     

    Section 5.02.  Acceleration.

     

    Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety with respect to the Notes as follows:

    

    

    “Section 6.02.  Acceleration.

     

    If any Event of Default (other than those of the type described in Section 6.01(i) or (j)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, and the Trustee
      upon the request of Holders of 25.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall, or the Holders of at least 25.0% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes may, declare the principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid
      interest, if any, of all the outstanding Notes, to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a notice of acceleration (the “Acceleration Notice”), and the same shall become immediately due and payable.

     

    In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or (j), the principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, of all
      of the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without any further action or notice on the part of the Trustee or the Holders. Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture.”

    LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

     

    Section 6.01.  Covenant Defeasance.

     

    Section 8.03 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety with respect to the Notes as follows:

    

    

    “Section 8.03.  Covenant Defeasance.

    

    

    Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the
      conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its Obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.04 and 4.06 of the Supplemental Indenture, with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in
      Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”) and each Guarantor, if any, shall be released from all of its Obligations under its Subsidiary
      Guarantee with respect to such covenants in connection with such outstanding Notes and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of
      any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes).  For this purpose, Covenant
      Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of
      any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
      Section 6.01, but, except as specified above in this Section 8.03, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.  If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the
      satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause (d) (with respect to the covenants contained in Section 4.06 of the Supplemental Indenture),
      clause (f) (with respect to the covenants contained in Section 4.04 of the Supplemental Indenture), and clauses (g), (h), (i) and (j) (but in the case of (i) and (j) of Section 6.01, with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only) of Section 6.01.”

      and/or transactions (including any modification to the terms of such transactions) so that the Trustee or any other Paying Agent can determine whether it has tax related obligations under Applicable Law, and (b) that the Trustee and/or any other
      Paying Agent shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments under this Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law for which the Trustee or any other Paying Agent shall not have any liability to the Company
      for its withholding or deduction from payment under this Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law.

    The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”) given pursuant to this
      Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Company shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing
      specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Company whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing.  If the Company elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means
      and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling.  The Company understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual
      sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized
      Officer.  The Company shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Company and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of
      applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Company.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and
      compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction.  The Company agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to
      the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various
      methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Issuer; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its
      transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the
      security procedures.

    2.625% Senior Notes due 2031

     

    Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

     

    1.            Interest.  Centene Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal
          amount of this Note at 2. 625% per annum until maturity.  The Company shall pay interest semi-annually on August 1 and February 1 of each year, commencing February 1, 2022, or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding
          Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”).  Interest shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Notes (or one or more Predecessor
          Notes) or, if no interest has been paid, from August 12, 2021.  The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time at a rate
          that is 1.0% per annum in excess of the interest rate then in effect under the Indenture and this Note; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest
          (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

     

    2.            Method of Payment.  The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the
          close of business on the July 15 or January 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Base Indenture
          with respect to defaulted interest.  The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made
          by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the Note Register; provided, however,
          that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer
          instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent.  Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

     

    3.            Paying Agent and Registrar.  Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Company may change
          any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.  The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

     

    
      A-5

      
        

    

    4.            Indenture.  The Company issued the Notes under the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 12, 2021 (the “Fourth
            Supplemental Indenture”), to the Indenture dated as of October 7, 2020 (the “Base Indenture” and, together with the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), each between the Company and the Trustee.  The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the
          Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms.  To the extent any provision of this Note
          conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

     

    5.            Optional Redemption.

     

    (a)          Prior to May 1, 2031 (the “Par Call Date”), the Notes will be redeemable at any time or from time to time in whole or in part at the Company’s option, upon notice as described in Section 3.03 of the Base
          Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed on that Redemption Date, and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on
          the Notes being redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date) that would be due if such Notes matured on the Par Call Date, discounted to such Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day
          year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

     

    (b)          On

          or after the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable at any time in whole or from time to time in part at the Company’s option, upon notice as described in Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
          principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

     

    (c)          Notwithstanding

          the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on any Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date for the Notes shall be payable on such Interest Payment Dates to the persons who were registered
          Holders of such Notes at the close of business on the applicable record dates.

     

    6.            Mandatory Redemption.

     

    Except as set forth in Section 4.06 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund
      payments with respect to the Notes.

     

    7.            Repurchase at Option of Holder Upon a Change of Control.

     

    Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, Section 3.03 and Section 4.06 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture shall apply to the extent applicable.

     

    
      A-6

      
        

    

    8.            Notice of Redemption.

     

    Notice of redemption shall be sent at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at
      its registered address (or electronically for Global Notes).  Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.  On and after the
      Redemption Date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

     

    9.            Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.  The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.  This Note shall represent the aggregate
          principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed hereon and the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented hereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.  The
          transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture.  The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may
          require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.  The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any
          Note being redeemed in part.  Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest
          Payment Date.

     

    10.          Persons Deemed Owners.  The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

     

    11.          Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.  The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes in accordance with Article 9 of the Base Indenture (as amended by Article 7
          of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture).

     

    12.          [Reserved].

     

    13.          Trustee Dealings with the Company.  Subject to certain limitations, the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with
          the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

     

    14.          No Recourse Against Others.  No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, member, manager or partner of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall
          have any liability for any Obligations of the Company or of the Guarantors, if any, under this Note, the Indenture, any supplemental indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees, if any, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
          Obligations or their creation.  Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.

     

    15.          Authentication.  This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by manual, facsimile or electronic signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

     

    
      A-7

      
        

    

    16.          Abbreviations.  Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint
          tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

     

    17.          CUSIP Numbers.  Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and
          has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders.  No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and
          reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

     

    18.          Governing Law.  THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS NOTE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPALS OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS
        OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

the benefits currently provided by the Company are as follows:

 

1.            Position.
You will be employed by the Company as Head of Finance commencing on May 10, 2021 (your “Start Date”).
You will be expected to comply with and be bound by the Company’s operating policies, procedures and practices that are in effect
during the term of your employment. During the term of your employment with the Company, you agree to devote your best efforts and substantially
all of your business time and attention to your employment duties for the Company.

 

2.            Compensation.
Your starting salary will be $285,000.00 per Year, or in the event of any portion of a year, a pro rata amount of such annual salary,
payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices (with such payroll deductions and withholdings as are required
by law). You will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual bonus plan. Your target bonus will be equal to 25% of
your annual salary.

 

3.            Benefits.
You will be eligible to participate in regular health insurance, and other employee benefit plans
established by the Company for its employees from time to time.

 

Except
as provided below, the Company reserves the right to change or otherwise modify, in its sole discretion, the preceding terms of employment,
as well as any of the terms set forth herein at any time in the future.

 

4.            Confidentiality.
As an employee of the Company, you will have access to certain confidential information of the Company and you may,
during the course of your employment, develop
certain information or inventions that will be the property of the Company. To
protect the interests of the Company, you will need to sign the
Company's standard "Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement" (the “Confidential Information
Agreement”) as a condition of your employment. We wish to impress upon you that we do not want you to,
and we hereby direct you not to, bring
with you any confidential or proprietary material of any former employer or to violate any other obligations you may have to any
former employer. During the period that you render services to the Company, you agree to not engage
in any employment, business or activity that is in any way competitive
with the business or proposed business of the Company. You will disclose to the Company in writing any other gainful employment,
business or activity that you are currently associated with or participate
in that competes with the Company. You will not assist any other person or organization in competing with the Company or in preparing
to engage in competition with the business or proposed business of the Company.

 

    

     

    

 

5.            Equity
Incentives. An equity grant will be made by the board, following the completion of the upcoming SPAC/PIPE transaction. The exact
award will be determined by the Board of Directors or it’s compensation committee at the next regularly scheduled date on which
the Board of Directors of the Company makes equity grants to employees. Any grant of equity and the amount of such equity grant is in
the sole discretion of the Company and its Board of Directors and will be subject to the terms of the applicable equity agreement. The
Company will grant you an option to purchase shares of common stock of the corporation at an exercise price equal to the fair market value
of such shares at the time of the grant (the “Stock Option”). The Stock Option will be subject to the terms
and conditions of the Company’s then-effective Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “Stock Plan”) and an applicable
stock option agreement thereunder. The Stock Option will vest as follows: so long as you remain a full-time employee of the Company: 25%
upon the first anniversary of your start date and in 36 equal monthly increments thereafter, and will automatically vest in full upon
a sale or change of control of the Company. Further details on the Stock Plan and the Stock Option will be provided upon approval of such
grant by the Company's Board of Directors.

 

6.            At
Will Employment. While we look forward to a long and profitable
relationship, should you decide to accept our offer, you will be an at-will employee of the Company, which means the employment relationship
can be terminated by either of us for any reason, at any time, with or without prior notice and with our without cause. Any statements
or representations to the contrary (and, indeed, any statements
contradicting any provision in this letter) should be regarded by you as ineffective. Further, your participation in any equity incentive,
bonus or benefit program is not to be regarded as assuring you of continuing employment for any particular period of time. Any modification
or change in your at will employment status may only occur by way of a written employment agreement signed by you and the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company.

 

7.            Authorization
to Work. On your first day of employment, as required by the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, you will be required
to show us identity and eligibility documents that comply with the law and verify your right to work in the United States. Please
have these documents available on your first day. If you are unable to produce the required documents within three business days of your
start date, your employment will be suspended. Please note, although not required for I-9 purposes, the Company also requires a copy of
your Social Security Card so that we may verify your legal name and Social Security number. Please have your Social Security Card available
on your first day. You will also be asked to acknowledge and indicate your acceptance of certain Company policies and matters relating
to your employment, including, but not limited to: confidentiality, conflicts of interest, and inventions.

 

If you have questions about this
requirement, which applies to U.S. citizens and non-U.S. citizens alike, you may contact our Operations Lead, Lauren Burns..

 

    

     

    

 

8.            Arbitration.
You and the Company shall submit to mandatory and exclusive binding arbitration of any controversy or claim arising out of, or relating
to, this Agreement or any breach hereof, provided, however, that the parties retain their right to, and shall not be prohibited, limited
or in any other way restricted from, seeking or obtaining equitable
relief from a court having jurisdiction over the parties. Such
arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and conducted through the American Arbitration Association in San Francisco,
California, before a single neutral arbitrator,
in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American
Arbitration Association in effect at that time. The parties may conduct only essential discovery prior to the hearing, as defined by the
