terms of the Plan and this Award, the terms of the Plan shall govern. Any terms not defined herein
shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

* * * * *

1. Rights of the Participant with Respect to the Shares. With respect to the Shares, on
and after the Award Date and until the date or dates on which the Shares vest and the restrictions
with respect to the Shares lapse in accordance with Section 2, 3 or 4, Participant shall have all
of the rights of a shareholder of the Common Stock, including the right to vote the Shares and the
right to receive dividends thereon, unless and until the Shares are forfeited pursuant to Section 4
or 6. The rights of Participant with respect to the Shares shall remain forfeitable at all times
prior to the date or dates on which such rights become vested, and the restrictions with respect to
the Shares lapse, in accordance with Section 2, 3 or 4. Subject to the restrictions and terms of
this Award, after the Shares vest pursuant to Section 2, 3 or 4, Participant shall have all of the
rights of a shareholder of the Common Stock with respect to the Shares (including, without
limitation, the right to vote the Shares and to receive cash dividends).

2. Vesting. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Award, 25% of the Shares shall
vest, and the restrictions with respect to the Shares shall lapse, on each of the first, second,
third and fourth anniversaries of the Award Date if Participant remains continuously employed by
the Company or continues to serve on the Board of Directors of the Company until the respective
vesting dates.

3. Early Vesting Upon Change in Control. Notwithstanding the other vesting provisions
contained in Section 2, but subject to the other terms and conditions set forth herein, upon the
effective date of a Change in Control, all of the Shares shall become immediately and
unconditionally vested and exercisable, and the restrictions with respect to all of the Shares
shall lapse. For purposes of this Award, a “Change in Control” shall mean the sale of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets or any merger, reorganization, or exchange or tender
offer which, in each case, will result in a change in the power to elect 50% or more of the members
of the Board of Directors of the Company.

4. Forfeiture or Early Vesting Upon Termination of Employment.

(a) Termination of Employment Generally. If, prior to vesting of the Shares
pursuant to Section 2 or 3, Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company, or ceases
to serve on the Board of Directors of the Company, for any reason (voluntary or involuntary)
other than death, permanent long-term disability or a termination of employment that results
in severance or separation pay being paid to Participant, then Participant’s rights to all
of the unvested Shares shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited.

(b) Death or Permanent Long-Term Disability. If Participant dies while
employed by the Company or its subsidiaries, or if Participant’s employment by the Company
or its subsidiaries is terminated due to Participant’s failure to return to work as the
result of a permanent long-term disability that renders Participant incapable of performing
his or her duties as determined under the provisions of the Company’s long-term disability
insurance program applicable to Participant, then all unvested Shares shall become
immediately vested, and the restrictions with respect to all of the Shares shall lapse, as
of the date of such long-term disability or death. No transfer by will or the applicable
laws of descent and distribution of any Shares that vest by reason of Participant’s death
shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee shall have been furnished with
written notice of such transfer and a copy of the will or such other evidence as the
committee of the Board of Directors administering the Plan (the “Committee”) may deem
necessary to establish the validity of the transfer.

(c) Severance. If Participant is entitled to severance under the Company’s
severance pay plan as in effect on the date hereof, then the Shares shall continue to vest,
and the restrictions with respect to the Shares shall continue to lapse, for the period of
such severance. If Participant is entitled to severance under an employment agreement
entered into with the Company, then the Shares will continue to vest, and the restrictions
with respect to the Shares shall continue to lapse for the period of such severance that
Participant is eligible to receive as of the date hereof. If Participant is entitled to
separation pay other than under the Company’s severance pay plan or an employment agreement,
then vesting of the Shares, and lapsing of their restrictions, shall continue for the lesser
of (i) the period Participant would have received payments under the severance pay plan as
in effect on the date hereof, had Participant been eligible for such payments; or (ii) the
period of separation pay. In either case, should Participant be paid in a lump sum versus
bi-weekly payments, the Shares shall continue to vest for the time in which severance or
separation pay would have been paid had it been paid bi-weekly.

5. Restriction on Transfer. Until the Shares vest pursuant to Section 2, 3 or 4, the
Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or
encumbered, and no attempt to transfer unvested Shares, whether voluntary or involuntary, by
operation of law or otherwise, shall vest the transferee with any interest or right in or with
respect to the Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant may, in the manner established
by the Committee, designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise the rights of Participant
and receive any property distributable with respect to the Shares upon the death of Participant.

6. Restrictive Covenants. In consideration of the terms of this Award and Participant’s
access to Confidential Information, Participant agrees to the Restrictive Covenants set forth
below. For purposes of these Restrictive Covenants, the “Company” means UnitedHealth Group
Incorporated and all of its subsidiaries and other affiliates. If Participant violates: (i) any
provision of the Restrictive Covenants of this Certificate, or (ii) any provision of the Company’s
Principles of Integrity and Compliance, then (i) all unvested portions of the Shares, together with
any portions of the Shares that vested within one year prior to the termination of Participant’s
employment with the Company or at any time after such termination (the “Forfeited Shares”), shall
become null and void and (ii) Participant shall pay to the Company, upon demand, an amount equal to
(A) the proceeds Participant has received from any sales of Forfeited Shares, and (B) if
Participant still holds all or any part of the Forfeited Shares at the time such Company demand is
made, the aggregate Fair Market Value of such Forfeited Shares as of the date of vesting of such
Forfeited Shares. Furthermore, the Company may seek any other legal or equitable remedy, including
injunctive relief, if Participant violates any of the following Restrictive Covenants. By
accepting this Award, Participant agrees that the restrictions and agreements contained in this
Section 6 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company.

(a) Confidential Information. Participant will be given access to and provided
with sensitive, confidential, proprietary and trade secret information (“Confidential
Information”) in the course of Participant’s employment. Examples of Confidential
Information include: inventions; new product or marketing plans; business strategies and
plans; merger and acquisition targets; financial and pricing information; computer programs,
source codes, models and databases; analytical models; customer lists and information; and
supplier and vendor lists and information. Participant agrees not to disclose or use
Confidential Information, either during or after Participant’s employment with the Company,
except as necessary to perform Participant’s duties or as the Company may consent in
writing.

(b) Non-Solicitation. During Participant’s employment and for two years after the
termination of Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever, Participant may not,
without the Company’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, for Participant or for
any other person or entity, as agent, employee, officer, director, consultant, owner,
principal, partner or shareholder, or in any other individual or representative capacity:

	 	(i)	 	Engage in any business competitive with any Company business
with any person or entity who: (a) was a Company provider or customer within
the 12 months before Participant’s employment termination and, (b) with whom
Participant had contact to further the Company’s business or for whom
Participant performed services, or supervised the provision of services for,
during Participant’s employment.

	 	(ii)	 	Hire, employ, recruit or solicit any Company employee or
consultant.

	 	(iii)	 	Induce or influence any Company employee, consultant, customer
or provider to terminate his, her or its employment or other relationship with
UnitedHealth Group.

	 	(iv)	 	Assist anyone in any of the activities listed above.

(c) Non-Competition. During Participant’s employment and for one year after the
termination of Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever, Participant may not,
without the Company’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, for Participant or for
any other person or entity, as agent, employee, officer, director, consultant, owner,
principal, partner or shareholder, or in any other individual or representative capacity:

	 	(i)	 	Engage or participate in, or in any way render services or
assistance to, any business that competes, directly or indirectly, with any
Company product or service that Participant participated in, engaged in, or had
Confidential Information regarding, during Participant’s employment.

(ii) Assist anyone in any of the activities listed above.

7. Issuance of Shares.

(a) Effective as of the Award Date, the Company shall cause the Shares to be issued in
book-entry form, registered in Participant’s name. The Shares shall be subject to an
appropriate stop-transfer order.

(b) After any of the Shares vest pursuant to Section 2, 3 or 4 and following payment of
the applicable withholding taxes pursuant to Section 9, the Company promptly shall cause the
stop-transfer order to be removed with respect to such vested Shares.

8. Adjustments to Shares.

(a) In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash,
 shares of Common Stock, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split,
reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination,
repurchase or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or other similar
corporate transaction or event affecting the Common Stocks would be reasonably likely to
result in the diminution or enlargement of any of the benefits or potential benefits
intended to be made available under the Award (including, without limitation, the benefits
or potential benefits of provisions relating to the vesting of the Shares), the Committee
shall, in such manner as it shall deem equitable or appropriate in order to prevent such
diminution or enlargement of any such benefits or potential benefits, make adjustments to
the Award, including adjustments in the number and type of Shares Participant would have
received; provided, however, that the number of shares covered by the Award
shall always be a whole number.

(b) Any additional shares of Common Stock, any other securities of the Company and any
other property (except for cash dividends or other cash distributions) distributed with
respect to the Shares prior to the date or dates the Shares vest shall be subject to the
same restrictions, terms and conditions as the Shares and shall be promptly deposited with
the Secretary of the Company or a custodian designated by the Secretary.

(c) Any cash dividends or other cash distributions payable with respect to the Shares
shall be distributed at the same time cash dividends or other cash distributions are
distributed to shareholders of the Company generally.

9. Income Tax Matters.

(a) In order to comply with all applicable federal or state income tax laws or
regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to ensure that all
applicable federal or state payroll, withholding, income or other taxes, which are the sole
and absolute responsibility of Participant, are withheld or collected from Participant.

(b) In accordance with the terms of the Plan, and such rules as may be adopted by the
Committee under the Plan, Participant may elect to satisfy Participant’s federal and state
income tax withholding obligations arising from the receipt of, or the lapse of restrictions
relating to, the Shares, by (i) delivering cash, check (bank check, certified check or
personal check) or money order payable to the Company, (ii) having the Company withhold a
portion of the Shares otherwise to be delivered having a Fair Market Value equal to the
amount of such taxes, or (iii) delivering to the Company shares of Common Stock already
owned by Participant having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such taxes. Any
 shares already owned by Participant referred to in the preceding sentence must have been
owned by Participant for no less than six months prior to the date delivered to the Company
if such shares were acquired upon the exercise of an option or upon the vesting of
restricted stock units or other restricted stock. The Company will not deliver any
fractional Share but will pay, in lieu thereof, the Fair Market Value of such fractional
Share. Participant’s election must be made on or before the date that the amount of tax to
be withheld is determined.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Award does not confer on Participant any right with respect to the continuance
of any relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries, nor will it interfere in any way
with the right of the Company to terminate such relationship at any time.

(b) Neither the Plan nor this Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or
separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate
and Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to
receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be
no greater than the right of any unsecured creditor of the Company or any Affiliate.

(c) The Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares until the requirements of
any federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations or other laws or rules (including
the rules of any securities exchange) as may be determined by the Company to be applicable
are satisfied.

(d) An original record of this Award and all the terms hereof, executed by the Company,
is held on file by the Company. To the extent there is any conflict between the terms
contained in this Award and the terms contained in the original held by the Company, the
terms of the original held by the Company shall control.

(e) If a court or arbitrator decides that any provision of this Certificate is invalid
or overbroad, Participant agrees that the court or arbitrator should narrow such provision
so that it is enforceable or, if narrowing is not possible or permissible, such provision
should be considered severed and the other provisions of this Certificate should be
unaffected.

(f) Participant agrees that (i) legal remedies (money damages) for any breach of the
Restrictive Covenants in this Certificate will be inadequate, (ii) the Company will suffer
immediate and irreparable harm from any such breach, and (iii) the Company will be entitled
to injunctive relief from a court in addition to any legal remedies the Company may seek in
arbitration.

(g) The Restrictive Covenants in this Certificate shall survive forfeiture of the
Shares.EX-10.3

number of shares of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the
“Common Stock”), indicated above in the box labeled “Number of Shares” (the “Shares”). The initial
value of each Share is indicated above in the box labeled “Grant Price.” This Award represents the

the terms and conditions set forth below and in the UnitedHealth Group Incorporated 2002 Stock
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). A copy of the Plan is available upon request. In the event of any
conflict between the terms of the Plan and this Award, the terms of the Plan shall govern. Any
terms not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

* * * * *

1. Rights of the Participant with Respect to the Stock Appreciation Rights.

(a) No Shareholder Rights. The Stock Appreciation Rights granted pursuant to this
Award do not and shall not entitle Participant to any rights of a shareholder of Common Stock prior
to the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Rights and the receipt of the Issued Shares in accordance
with this Award. The rights of Participant with respect to this Award shall remain forfeitable at
all times prior to the date on which such rights become vested in accordance with Section 2, 3 or 4
hereof.

(b) Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights; Issuance of Common Stock. No shares of
Common Stock shall be issued to Participant prior to the date on which the Stock Appreciation
Rights are vested in accordance with Sections 2, 3, or 4, and exercised in accordance with Section
5. Upon exercise of the Stock Appreciation Rights, Participant shall be entitled to receive a
number of Issued Shares for each Vested Share with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Rights
are exercised equal to (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise
over the Grant Price, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise.
The Issued Shares shall be issued in book-entry form, registered in Participant’s name or in the
name of Participant’s legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs, as the case may be. The
Company will not deliver any fractional share of Common Stock but will pay, in lieu thereof, cash
equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional share.

2. Vesting. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Award, the Stock Appreciation
Rights shall vest and may be exercised by Participant with respect to 25% of the Shares on each of
the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Award Date if Participant remains
continuously employed by the Company until the respective vesting dates.

3. Early Vesting Upon Change in Control. Notwithstanding the other vesting provisions
contained in Section 2, but subject to the other terms and conditions set forth herein, upon the
effective date of a Change in Control the Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to all of the
Shares shall become immediately and unconditionally vested and exercisable. For purposes of this
Award, a “Change in Control” shall mean the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s
assets or any merger, reorganization, or exchange or tender offer which, in each case, will result
in a change in the power to elect 50% or more of the members of the Board of Directors of the
Company.

4. Forfeiture or Early Vesting Upon Termination of Employment.

(a) Termination of Employment Generally. If Participant ceases to be an employee of
the Company for any reason (voluntary or involuntary) other than death or permanent long-term
disability, then Participant may at any time within the Exercise Period (as defined below) exercise
the Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to the Vested Shares on the date of the termination.
Participant’s Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to any unvested Shares shall be immediately
and irrevocably forfeited on the date of termination.

(b) Death or Permanent Long-Term Disability. If Participant dies while employed by
the Company or its subsidiaries, or if Participant’s employment by the Company or its subsidiaries
is terminated due to Participant’s failure to return to work as the result of a permanent long-term
disability which renders Participant incapable of performing his or her duties as determined under
the provisions of the Company’s long-term disability insurance program applicable to Participant,
then (i) the Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to any unvested Shares shall immediately vest,
and (ii) Participant (or Participant’s personal representatives, administrators or guardians, as
applicable, or any person or persons to whom the Stock Appreciation Rights are transferred by will
or the applicable laws of descent and distribution) may, at any time within a period of five years
after the Participant’s death or termination of employment due to the Participant’s failure to
return to work as the result of a permanent long-term disability, or for such other longer period
established at the discretion of the Committee or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
exercise the Stock Appreciation Rights to the extent of the full number of Vested Shares.

(c) Severance. If Participant is entitled to severance under the Company’s severance
pay plan as in effect on the date hereof, then the Stock Appreciation Rights shall continue to vest
for the period of such severance that Participant is eligible to receive. If Participant is
entitled to severance under an employment agreement entered into with the Company, then vesting of
the Stock Appreciation Rights shall continue for the period of such severance that Participant is
entitled to receive as of the date hereof. If Participant is entitled to separation pay other than
under the Company’s severance pay plan or an employment agreement, then vesting of the Stock
Appreciation Rights shall continue for the lesser of (i) the period Participant would have received
payments under the severance pay plan as in effect on the date hereof, had Participant been
eligible for such payments or (ii) the period of separation pay. In either case, should
Participant be paid in a lump sum versus bi-weekly payments, the Stock Appreciation Rights shall
continue to vest for the period of time in which severance or separation pay would have been paid
had it been paid bi-weekly.

(d) For purposes of this Award, “Exercise Period” means the greater of (i) a period of three
months after the date of termination of Participant’s employment, (ii) if Participant is entitled
to severance or separation pay, a period of three months after vesting ceases as provided in (c)
above, or (iii) such other longer period established at the discretion of the Committee or the
Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Stock Appreciation Rights shall in no event be exercisable to any extent or by any Person after the
Expiration Date.

5. Method of Exercise. The Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised with respect to
Vested Shares by delivery to the Company of a written notice which shall state that Participant
elects to exercise the Stock Appreciation Rights as to the number of Vested Shares specified in the
notice as of the date specified in the notice.

6. Restriction on Transfer. During Participant’s lifetime, the Stock Appreciation
Rights shall be exercisable only by Participant. Participant may not transfer the Stock
Appreciation Rights except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act or the rules promulgated thereunder. Any attempt to otherwise transfer the
Stock Appreciation Rights shall be void.

7. Termination. The Stock Appreciation Rights granted pursuant to this Award shall
terminate on the earlier to occur of (a) the date indicated above in the box labeled “Expiration
Date” or (b) as provided in Section 4 above.

8. Forfeiture of Stock Appreciation Right. If Participant violates: (a) any
provision of the Restrictive Covenants of this Certificate, or (b) any provision of the Company’s
Principles of Integrity and Compliance, then all unvested portions of the Stock Appreciation
Rights, together with any portions of the Stock Appreciation Rights which vested within one year
prior to the termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or at any time after such
termination (the “Forfeited Shares”), shall become null and void and Participant shall pay to the
Company, upon demand, an amount equal to the difference between the proceeds Participant has
received from any sales of Forfeited Shares; and if Participant still holds all or any part of the
Forfeited Shares at the time such Company demand is made, the aggregate Fair Market Value of such
Forfeited Shares as of the date of vesting of the Forfeited Rights. The paragraph does not
constitute the Company’s exclusive remedy for Participant’s violation of the Restrictive Covenants.
The Company may seek any additional legal or equitable remedy, including injunctive relief, for
any such violation.

property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Common Stock or other
securities of the Company or other similar corporate transaction or event affecting the Common
Stock would be reasonably likely to result in the diminution or enlargement of any of the benefits
or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Award (including, without limitation,
the benefits or potential benefits of provisions relating to the term, vesting or exercisability of
the Stock Appreciation Rights), the Committee shall, in such manner as it shall deem equitable or
