NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

PROVISIONS RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT
1.Employment The Company agrees to employ Executive and she accepts such employment for the period beginning as of the Effective Date and ending upon of her termination of employment pursuant to Section 1(e) hereof (the “Employment Period”).

(a)Duties. During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company and shall have such duties and responsibilities as are typically commensurate with such position. Executive shall have such other powers and perform such other duties as may from time to time reasonably be prescribed by the Chief Executive Officer of HLS (the “HLSCEO”) which are consistent with the position of CEO of the Company, including serving without additional compensation as an officer or director of the Company’s Subsidiaries.  Executive’s authority shall be subject to the power of the HLSCEO to expand such duties, responsibilities and authority and to override actions of Executive.

(b)Reporting and Devotion to Duties. Executive shall report to the HLSCEO, and she shall devote substantially all of her working time and efforts to the business and affairs of the Company and the Subsidiaries; provided, however, that such service does not materially interfere with the provision of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to Homecare Homebase, LLC (“Homecare Homebase”).  The Company explicitly acknowledges that Executive (i) may continue to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Homecare Homebase in a manner consistent with Executive’s past practices, or (ii) may serve as Executive Chairperson of Homecare Homebase in a capacity that does not, in the aggregate, exceed the time commitment in effect for Executive in her role as the Chief Executive Officer of Homecare Homebase immediately prior to the Effective Date; provided, however, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), that such service does not materially interfere with the provision of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company further acknowledges that Executive may serve as a director of Great Lakes Caring LLC, on the board of directors of the Encompass Cares Foundation, and on the board of trustees of Abilene Christian University.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that (y) the provision of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Date is deemed not to materially interfere with the provision of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to Homecare Homebase and (z) the provision of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to Homecare Homebase immediately prior to the Effective Date is deemed not to materially interfere with the provision of Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(c)Compensation. 

(i)Commencing upon the Effective Date and, thereafter, during the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary shall be $347,000 per annum or such higher rate as the Board of Directors of HLS or applicable committee thereof (the “Board”) may designate from time to time, based upon the Company’s achievement of budgetary and other objectives set by the Board (as in effect from time to time, the “Base Salary”). Executive’s Base Salary shall be payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (but no less frequently than monthly) and shall be subject to customary withholding for income tax, social security or other such taxes. Executive’s Base Salary for any partial year will be prorated based upon the number of days elapsed in such year.

(ii)In addition to the Base Salary, Executive shall be eligible for an annual bonus (an “Annual Bonus”) of up to 50% of her Base Salary based upon the Company’s achievement of its annual budget targets to be set by the Board within sixty (60) days of the start of the fiscal year for which such targets will apply.  The Annual Bonus shall be paid by no later than March 1 of the year 

following the year in which it was earned and shall be subject to customary withholding for income tax, social security or other such taxes. Except as provided in Section 1(e), Executive shall receive an Annual Bonus payable for a calendar year only if she is employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries as of the date of payment of the Annual Bonus.

(iii)As of the Effective Date, HLS shall cause HHHH to grant to Executive stock appreciation rights in respect of HHHH common stock on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Annex B to the Rollover Stock Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, and, each year during the Employment Period through the year ending December 31, 2019, Executive shall be entitled to participate in the HLS Amended and Restated 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (or any successor thereto (the “HLS EIP”)) and receive restricted stock in respect of the common stock of HLS on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Annex B  to the Rollover Stock Agreement (collectively, the “Equity Grants”).  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 1(c)(iii) shall prevent HLS from granting (or causing HHHH to grant) Executive such additional equity awards as it may determine from time to time during the Employment Period.

(d)Benefits. In addition to the Base Salary, the Annual Bonus and the Equity Grants payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, she shall be entitled to the following benefits during the Employment Period:

(i)paid time off per Company policy;

(ii)reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive on the Company’s behalf and within the Company’s stated policies and procedures for expense reimbursement, subject to providing appropriate documentation thereof to the Company (including reimbursement for the cost of professional representation and consultation in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement). Such reimbursements will be made within 90 days from the date the expenses are incurred;

(iii)participation in all health, disability, welfare and benefit plans available to the Company’s senior executives, all subject to plan terms and generally applicable Company policies;

(iv)participation in all retirement plans available to the Company’s senior executives; and

(v)any other benefits and perquisites made available to any member of the Company’s senior management team.

(e)Termination.

(i)The Employment Period shall continue for three years commencing on the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”) and shall be automatically renewed for successive one year terms unless the Company or Executive receives written notice from the other at least ninety (90) days prior to the termination of either the Initial Term or a successive term then in effect, unless earlier terminated as provided herein. Executive or the Company may terminate Executive’s employment prior to the end of the term set forth in the preceding sentence, as set forth in this Section 1(e); provided, that written notice to Executive shall be required thirty (30) days prior to termination by the Company without Cause and written notice to the Board shall be required thirty (30) days prior to termination by Executive without Good Reason. The Parties’ rights and duties in the event of a termination of employment will be as set forth below.

(ii)If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause or Executive terminates her employment for Good Reason, the Company will, in lieu of any other payments or benefits hereunder:

(A)continue to pay Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect on the Date of Termination until the date that is twelve months after the Date of Termination in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices (but not less frequently than monthly);

(B)pay to Executive any Annual Bonus for any fiscal year that has ended prior to the Date of Termination, if such Annual Bonus has not yet been paid as of the Date of Termination (payable on the later of the date that annual bonuses are paid generally, in accordance with Section 1(c)(ii) hereof, and the next regular payday following the effective date of the release of claims referenced below in this Section 1(e));

(C)pay to the Executive an amount equal to the amount of the COBRA premium required to continue health coverage for Executive and her dependents under the Company’s group health plan to the extent permitted by the plan (provided that such amount shall not exceed the Company’s cost of coverage prior to termination) until the earliest of (i) the date that is twelve months after the Date of Termination, (ii) the date of commencement of health coverage for the benefit of Executive and her dependents under any other plan, and (iii) the date of Executive’s eligibility for health coverage as a result of her employment with another entity; and

(D)pay to Executive a ratable amount (based on Executive’s Base Salary) with respect to accrued and unused paid time off as of the Date of Termination.
The right to receive the benefits set forth above is expressly conditioned on Executive’s execution and delivery to the Company of a release of claims arising out of Executive’s employment with the Company or termination thereof, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, as of the Date of Termination.  Additionally, if the Executive materially breaches her obligations under Sections 2 or 3 of this Agreement during the period in which the Executive is entitled to such benefits, the Executive no longer shall be entitled to receive such benefits and the Company will have no further obligation to provide such benefits to the Executive. In any event, the Company will reimburse the Executive for any unreimbursed business expenses pursuant to Section 1(d)(ii) of this Agreement.
(iii)If (A) the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause or (B) the Executive terminates her employment without Good Reason, the Company will, in lieu of any other payments or benefits hereunder, pay the Executive’s Base Salary through the Date of Termination, at the rate then in effect, plus reimbursement of business expenses pursuant to Section 1(d)(ii) of this Agreement, without any obligation to pay any other amounts hereunder.

(iv)If the Executive terminates or the Company terminates Executive’s employment because of the Executive’s death or Disability for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days or one hundred eighty (180) total days during any period of three hundred sixty five (365) consecutive days, the Company will, in lieu of any other payments or benefits hereunder, continue to pay the Executive’s Base Salary through the Date of Termination at the rate then in effect, without any obligation to pay any other amounts hereunder in cash or otherwise.

(v)Payments under Section 1(e)(ii) shall be made without regard to Sections 280G or 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), except that if Executive’s total 

after-tax payments would be increased by a reduction of payments or benefits under Section 1(e)(ii), or by the adjustment to the vesting of any equity-based or other awards that would otherwise be an "excess parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, such reduction and/or adjustment shall be made to the extent necessary to maximize Executive’s total after-tax payments.  After-tax payments shall be determined after reduction for federal taxes, including the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code.  The calculations described in this Section 1(e)(v) shall be made by such certified public accounting firm as the Company may designate prior to the applicable change in ownership or effective control, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets, of the applicable corporation under Section 280G of the Code.

2.Confidential Information and Inventions and Patents.
(a)    Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that the information, observations and data obtained by her concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its Affiliates and its and their predecessors during the course of her performance of services for, or employment with, any of the foregoing Persons (whether or not compensated for such services) are the property of the Company and its Affiliates, including information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Company’s business or industry of which Executive becomes aware during such period. Therefore, Executive agrees that she will not (and shall cause each of her Affiliates not to) at any time (whether during or after the Employment Period) disclose to any unauthorized Person or, directly or indirectly, use for her own account, any of such information, observations or data without the Board’s consent, unless and to the extent that the aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a direct or indirect result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act. Executive agrees to deliver to the Company at the termination of her employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company may request in writing (whether during or after the Employment Period), all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents and copies thereof, regardless of the format or media, of the Company and its Affiliates (including, without limitation, all acquisition prospects, lists and contact information) which she may then possess or have under her control, except any information relating to her employment terms and benefits, her performance, or the circumstances of her departure from the Company.
(b)    Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, trade secrets, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) that relate to the Company’s or any of its Affiliates’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and that are conceived, developed, made or reduced to practice by Executive while employed by the Company and its Affiliates or any of its and their predecessors (“Work Product”) belong to the Company or such Affiliate and Executive hereby assigns, and agrees to assign, all of the Work Product to the Company or such Affiliate; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) of the information technology systems and software licenses from Homecare Homebase. Any copyrightable work prepared in whole or in part by Executive in the course of her work for any of the foregoing entities shall be deemed a “work made for hire” under the copyright laws, and the Company or such Affiliate shall own all rights therein. To the extent that any such copyrightable work is not a “work made for hire,” Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign to Company or such Affiliate all right, title and interest, including without limitation, copyright in and to such copyrightable work. Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product and copyrightable work to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm the Company’s or its Affiliate’s ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

3.Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation.

(a)Noncompetition. In further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, she acknowledges that during the course of her employment with the Company and its Affiliates (including, without limitation, any predecessors thereof) she has become familiar with, and during the course of her employment with the Company and its Affiliates she will become familiar with, the Company’s and its Affiliates’ trade secrets and with other Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that her services shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company and its Affiliates and that the Company’s ability to accomplish its purposes and to successfully pursue its business plan and compete in the marketplace depends substantially on the skills and expertise of the Executive. Therefore, and in further consideration of the compensation being paid to the Executive hereunder, she agrees that, during the Noncompete Period (as defined below), she shall not directly or indirectly engage or become interested in, whether as an owner, general partner, member, officer, employee, consultant, director, stockholder or otherwise (other than passive ownership of less than five percent (5%) of any class of securities of an entity, but without otherwise participating in the activities of such entity, whose securities are listed on a national or regional securities exchange or stock market and have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), any business of which the primary activity is the provision of products or services within the Restricted Territory (as defined below) that, as of the Date of Termination, are competitive with, are offered or being developed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, joint ventures or partnerships, including, without limitation, if applicable, any business directly or indirectly engaged in the business of operating or managing a home health practice or the acquisition of companies so engaged. The “Noncompete Period” shall mean the Employment Period and the period beginning on the Date of Termination and ending upon the second anniversary of the Date of Termination. “Restricted Territory” shall mean any state or territory of the United States in which the Company or its Subsidiaries are located or operate, or is in the process of actively planning to conduct or conducting operations, as of the Date of Termination of the Employment Period; provided the foregoing shall not preclude or limit the Executive’s activities relating to Homecare Homebase so long as such activities do not entail the operation of home health agencies in the Restricted Area, or any activities approved by written consent of the Board. Executive acknowledges that the geographic boundaries, scope of prohibited activities and the time duration are reasonable and are no broader than are necessary to protect legitimate business interests.

(b)Nonsolicitation. In addition, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for two years thereafter (the “Nonsolicitation Period”), she shall not (and shall cause all of her Affiliates not to), directly or indirectly through another Person (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire (in any capacity) any Person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the six month period immediately prior to the date on which such hiring would take place (it being conclusively presumed by the Parties so as to avoid any disputes under this Section 3(b) that any such hiring within such six month period is in violation of clause (a) above), (iii) for so long as Executive has any obligations under Section 3(a) above, call on, solicit or service any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in order to induce or attempt to induce such Person to cease doing business with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (including making any negative statements or communications about the Company or any of its Affiliates) or (iv) initiate or engage in any discussions regarding an acquisition of, or Executive’s employment (whether as an employee, an independent contractor or otherwise) by, any businesses in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries within the two (2) year period prior to the Date of Termination has had or is engaged in discussions, or has requested or received information, relating to the acquisition of such business by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. This paragraph shall not preclude or limit the Executive’s activities relating to Homecare Homebase so long 

as such activities do not entail the operation of home health agencies in the Restricted Area, or any activities approved by written consent of the Board.

(c)Enforcement. If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 2 or 3 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum duration, scope and area permitted by law. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to Confidential Information, the Parties agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company or its successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security and without proving damages).

Notwithstanding any other provision with respect to the timing of payments under this Agreement, if, at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment, the Executive is deemed to be a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), and any successor statute, regulation and guidance thereto) of the Company, then only to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, any payments to which the Executive may become entitled under this Agreement as a result of the Executive’s termination of employment which are subject to Section 409A of the Code (and not otherwise exempt from its application) will be withheld until the first business day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination, at which time the Executive shall be paid an aggregate amount equal to six months of payments otherwise due to the Executive under the terms of or a full lump sum if otherwise due. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. Further, notwithstanding anything herein, to the extent that the Executive or the Company reasonably believes that Section 409A of the Code will result in adverse tax consequences to the Executive as a result of this Agreement, then the Executive and the Company shall renegotiate this Agreement in good faith in order to minimize or eliminate such tax consequences and retain the basic after-tax economics of this Agreement for the Executive to the extent reasonably possible.

(n)No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

(o)Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation.  Definitions are equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined, and references to the masculine, feminine or neuter gender include each other gender.

(p)Resolution of Disputes.

(i)Mediation. No Party shall initiate arbitration or other legal proceedings against any other Party arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement, except that any Party may seek injunctive relief at any time. No such arbitration or proceeding shall be initiated in respect of Executive’s employment with the Company or any and all claims that one Party may have against another Party or its Affiliates until thirty (30) days after written notice has been given of the specific nature of any purported claim and the amount of any purported damages. The Parties further agree that if any Party submits the claim to the American Arbitration Association for nonbinding mediation prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, no other Party may institute arbitration or other 

legal proceedings against the claimant Party until the earlier of: (i) completion of nonbinding mediation efforts, or (ii) forty-five (45) days after the date on which the non-claimant Party receives notice of the claimant Party’s claim. The mediation shall be conducted in Dallas, Texas or such other location to which the applicable Parties may agree.

(ii)Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 6(f) or Section 6(p)(iii), any dispute or controversy between or among the Parties, whether arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the breach of this Agreement, or otherwise, shall be settled by arbitration in Dallas, Texas or such other location to which the applicable Parties may agree administered by the American Arbitration Association, with any such dispute or controversy arising under this Agreement being so administered in accordance with its Employment Rules then in effect, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could order or grant, including, without limitation, the issuance of an injunction. Except as necessary in court proceedings to enforce this arbitration provision or an award rendered hereunder, or to obtain interim relief, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company and Executive. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding any choice of law provision included in this Agreement, the United States Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision.

(iii)Enforcement. The Parties agree that the Company and its Affiliates would be damaged irreparably in the event that any provision of Section 2 or 3 of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms or were otherwise breached, and that Executive would be damaged irreparably in the event of certain conduct by the Company and its Affiliates, and that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such nonperformance or breach. Accordingly, the Executive and the Company and its successors and permitted assigns shall be entitled, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent any breach or threatened breach of any of such provisions and to enforce such provisions specifically (without posting a bond or other security). Executive, the Company and its Affiliates agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Texas in any action by the Company to enforce an arbitration award against Executive or to obtain interim injunctive or other relief pending an arbitration decision.

In witness whereof, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective duly authorized officers (as applicable) as of the day and year first written above.

NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT
THIS NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between April Anthony (the “Seller”), on the one hand, and HealthSouth Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”) and HealthSouth Home Health Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (the “Buyer”), on the other, effective as of
the Closing Date, as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of November 23, 2014 by and among the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Seller), the Parent, the Buyer, EHHI Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the other parties thereto (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, certain Shareholders, including the Seller, wish to contribute certain of their Shares to HealthSouth Home Health Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (“HHHH”), in exchange for shares of common stock or other equity securities of HHHH of equal value pursuant to a Rollover Stock Agreement (the “Rollover”);

WHEREAS, immediately following the Rollover, the Shareholders, including the Seller, desire to sell and transfer to the Buyer (a subsidiary of HHHH) all of the Shares not contributed in the Rollover pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, in order to assure that the Buyer receives and retains the full value of the business rights in the Acquired Companies acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the parties desire to set forth in this Agreement certain agreed-upon restrictions on the Seller’s activities; and

WHEREAS, the Seller’s agreement to the restrictions on the Seller’s post-Closing activities contained herein is a material condition of the Buyer’s willingness to enter into the Purchase Agreement and the Rollover Stock Agreement and to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual promises, terms, provisions and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.    Non-Competition.  The Seller agrees that, for a period of five (5) years after the Closing (the “Restriction Period”), the Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall not permit any of the Seller’s controlled Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, either for the Seller or any other Person, engage in, own, operate, manage, control, invest in or participate in any manner, act as a consultant or advisor to, render services for (alone or in association with any Person), or otherwise assist in any manner any Person that engages in or owns, operates, manages, controls, invests in or participates in, the business of (i) providing home healthcare or hospice services

(the “Restricted Services”) or (ii) acquiring companies which provide the Restricted Services (the business of (i) or (ii), a “Competing Business”) anywhere in the United States (the “Restricted Area”); provided that ownership of five percent (5%) or less of any class of securities of a company whose securities are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and listed on any national security exchange shall not be deemed, by itself, to constitute engagement in, ownership, operation, management, control, investment in or participation in a Competing Business.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Seller’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the Amended and Restated Senior Management Agreement by and among the Seller, the Company and the other parties thereto, dated as of the date hereof), then (x) the Restricted Services shall include only those home healthcare or hospice services that are provided by the Acquired Companies as of the date of such Seller’s termination of employment and (y) the Restricted Area shall be reduced to include only those geographic areas where the
Acquired Companies conduct the Competing Business as of the date of such Seller’s termination of employment.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Seller from (a) fulfilling the Seller’s obligations under the Memorandum of Agreement by and between Homecare Homebase, LLC (“HCHB”) and the Seller dated November 25, 2013 or (b) otherwise performing her duties and responsibilities for HCHB, consistent with the nature and scope of such duties and responsibilities immediately prior to the Closing Date.

2.    Non-Solicitation.  The Seller agrees that, during the Restriction Period, the Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of the Seller’s controlled Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, engage, recruit or solicit for employment or engagement, offer employment to, hire, or enter into any independent contractor relationship with, or otherwise seek to influence any relationship with, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, any employee of any Acquired Company as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not prohibit (i) any public advertisement or posting or other form of general solicitation that is not directed at any or all of such employees and/or hiring any such individuals who respond to such general solicitations, (ii) any solicitation, engagement, employment or hiring of, or offer to, any Person who, at the time of such solicitation, engagement, employment, hiring or offer has involuntarily had his or her employment terminated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any solicitation, engagement, employment or hiring of, or offer to, any Person whose employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries terminated for any reason at least six (6) months prior to engaging in any such discussions.  The Seller agrees that, during the Restriction Period, the Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of the Seller’s controlled Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Buyer (A) induce any Person which is a customer of any of the Company or its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date to patronize any Competing Business or (B) request or advise any Person who is a customer or vendor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date to reduce, curtail or cancel any such customer’s or vendor’s business with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is a Subsidiary as of the Closing Date.

3.    Confidentiality.  During the Restriction Period, the Seller shall, and shall cause each of the Seller’s controlled Affiliates and Representatives, to, keep secret and retain in strictest confidence, and shall not, and shall not allow any controlled Affiliate or Representative

to, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, furnish, make available or disclose to any third party, any information relating to the business or affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including information relating to financial statements, client or customer identities, potential clients or customers, employees, suppliers, servicing methods, equipment, programs, strategies and information, analyses, profit margins or other proprietary information (collectively, “Confidential Information”), other than any such Confidential Information which is in the public domain or becomes generally known in the public domain through no wrongful act on the part of the Seller, or any of the Seller’s respective controlled Affiliates or Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions of this Section 3, in the event that the Seller, or any of the Seller’s controlled Affiliates or Representatives, is requested or required by applicable Legal Requirements, regulation, stock exchange rule or legal process (including pursuant to written or oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena or civil investigative demand) to disclose any Confidential Information, the Seller (if and to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) shall notify the Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that the Buyer may seek (at its sole cost) an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 3.  In the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, such Person may disclose the Confidential
Information as so requested or required; provided, however, that such Person shall reasonably cooperate with the Buyer if the Buyer seeks to obtain (at the Buyer’s sole cost) an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the Buyer shall designate.

4.    Enforcement of Covenants.  The Seller acknowledges that the periods of restriction, the geographical areas of restriction and the restraints imposed by the provisions of Section 1, Section 2 and Section 3 are fair and reasonably required for the protection of the Buyer.  If in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, any term or provision of Section 1, Section 2 or Section 3 is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable against the parties as so modified. The Seller agrees and acknowledges that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for breach of the provisions of Section 1, Section 2 and Section 3.

5.    Assignment.  Neither the Buyer nor the Seller may make any assignment of this Agreement or any interest herein, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Buyer and the Seller, their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns.

6.    Severability.  If any portion or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as
to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7.    Waiver.  No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party.  The failure of either party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.
8.    Notices.  All notices, requests, demands, claims and other communications required or permitted to be delivered, given or otherwise provided under this Agreement must be delivered in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Purchase Agreement.

Notices to the Seller shall be sent to:

9.    Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the Seller and by an expressly authorized representative of the Buyer.

purpose of any and all Actions arising in whole or in part out of, related to, based upon or in connection with this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, (b) waives to the extent not 

prohibited by applicable law, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such action brought in one of the above-named courts should be dismissed on grounds of improper venue or forum non conveniens, should be transferred to any court other than one of the above-named courts, or should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any other court other than one of the above-named courts, or that this Agreement or any claims arising in whole or in part out of, related to, based upon, or in connection herewith or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court, (c) agrees not to commence any such Action other than before one of the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such action to any court other than one of the above-named courts (subject in each case to clause (a) of this sentence) whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise, (d) consents to service of process in any such Action in any manner permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware, (e) agrees that service of process made in accordance with clause (d) or made pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement will constitute good and valid service of process in any such Action, and (f) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such Action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (d) or clause (e) does not constitute good and valid service of process.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, a party
may commence an Action in any other court to enforce an order or judgment issued by one of the courts described in the immediately preceding sentence.
