Dear Jeff:

This letter shall serve to document the agreement between you and Cerner Corporation (“Cerner”) with respect to your new employment arrangement with Cerner, effective November 1, 2019.  This arrangement will be in effect through June 30, 2020, at which time it will be reviewed to mutually determine continued need and effectiveness.  If extended by mutual agreement, it will continue to be reviewed thereafter at least semi-annually.

Beginning November 1, 2019:

1.You will transition to a new position as Executive Senior Advisor focusing primarily on completion of the transition of your current projects and responsibilities, and then taking on such advising or consulting projects as requested from time to time by the Cerner Chief Executive Officer.  It is expected that you will perform a minimum of 60 hours of work for Cerner per fiscal quarter.   

2.As a result of this modified level and scope of responsibility, your new base salary, effective November 1, 2019, will be $100,000 per year to be paid on Cerner’s normal pay dates, less appropriate withholdings and payroll deductions. You will not be eligible to participate in the Cerner Corporation 2018 Performance Compensation Plan (“CPP”) beyond Q3 2019.  Any amounts earned, but not yet paid, under your CPP agreements for Q3 2019 will be paid in accordance with the terms of such agreements.  

3.Given the limited scope of your time and services as Executive Senior Advisor, it is agreed that your outstanding Cerner stock options, performance-based restricted stock unit awards, and time-based restricted stock units that have not vested as of November 1, 2019 will be forfeited and cancelled as of November 1, 2019.  Any outstanding Cerner stock options that have vested as of November 1, 2019, will remain outstanding and exercisable pursuant to your grant agreements and the terms of the Cerner Corporation 2011 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, as long as you remain employed by Cerner and, considering that you are retiring, for a period of 12 months from the date that your employment and role as Executive Senior Advisor terminates.  Each of the unvested grant instruments for any outstanding equity awards granted by Cerner to you are hereby deemed amended by the parties to effect the forfeiture of such unvested equity effective as of November 1, 2019.  Given the limited scope of your time and services as Executive Senior Advisor, you will not be eligible for future stock option or other equity grants.  

4.This letter agreement amends, supplements and is in addition to the terms and conditions set forth in the Employment Agreement you signed with Cerner effective October 30, 1989, as amended (collectively, your “Employment Agreement”). The terms and conditions of your Employment Agreement and your Cerner Mutual Arbitration Agreement dated November 24, 2015 shall remain in full force and effect, except to the extent modified hereby.  Your Cerner Executive Severance Agreement dated effective as of September 11, 2017, shall be terminated and of no further force or effect as of November 1, 2019.  To the extent any terms of this letter agreement conflict with the terms of your Employment Agreement, this letter agreement shall govern.

5.Subject to any premium adjustments based on your part-time status, your eligibility, coverage and benefits under Cerner’s group health plan, dental plan, and vision plan will continue as of November 1, 2019. You will receive a notification in Workday with details regarding any changes in premiums. 

6.Eligibility, continued coverage and benefits under other Cerner benefits plans (e.g., associate stock purchase, flexible spending account, group life, long term care, disability, accidental death, etc.) are governed solely by the terms of those respective plans.  Although you might have certain conversion rights, as a part-time associate you will generally not be eligible for such other benefit plans effective November 1, 2019.

We are very appreciative of the years of dedicated service and contributions you have made to Cerner and look forward to you continuing to provide valuable advise and counseling to Cerner under this modified employment arrangement.  If you are in agreement with the terms of the letter agreement, please execute both copies, returning one to me for Cerner’s records, and keeping one for your personal records.

Sincerely,

/s/ Tracy Platt
Tracy Platt
Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer

RECITALS
		
	A.
	You are the Senior Vice President and President, Cerner Health Ventures of Cerner and have been employed by Cerner since November 30, 2012.  You have been the Senior Vice President and President, Cerner Health Ventures of Cerner since December 29, 2013.

	In consideration for your continuing employment with Cerner, the restricted stock granted to you on September 1, 2017, the potential severance payments and potential acceleration of the vesting of outstanding equity incentive awards described herein, the potential benefits to you in the event of a Change in Control, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which you and Cerner hereby acknowledge, you and Cerner hereby agree to the following supplemental terms and conditions to your Employment Agreement.

		
	E.
	Definitions of capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein can be found in Appendix A.

AGREEMENT
In consideration of the mutual covenants, promises, and obligations set forth herein, the parties agree to amend and supplement your Employment Agreement as follows: 
		
	1.
	PARAGRAPH 2 MODIFICATION.  Paragraph 2 of your Employment Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

2.     EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP; SEVERANCE AND BENEFITS.
		
	A.
	Type.  To the extent permitted by law, your employment relationship with Cerner is “at will,” which means that you may resign from Cerner at any time, for any reason or for no reason at all, and without advance notice (except as described below).  It also means that Cerner may terminate your employment at any time - for any legally permitted reason or for no reason at all and without advance notice, subject to Cerner’s potential obligations to you under Paragraph 2.C below.

		
	B.
	Resignation and Termination.  

		
	1.
	Termination by Cerner.  Cerner may terminate your employment (i) at any time with or without Cause, or (ii) upon your Disability.  Your employment with Cerner shall be deemed automatically terminated upon your death.  Upon a termination of your employment by Cerner with Cause, due to your death or on account of Disability (each an “Ineligible Severance Event”), Cerner shall pay you within thirty (30) days following your last day of employment (x) any accrued but unpaid base salary, (y) any owed reimbursements for unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred by you prior to your termination date, which shall be subject to and paid in accordance with Cerner’s expense reimbursement policy; and (z) such employee benefits (including equity compensation or cash bonuses earned as of the termination date but not yet paid), if any, to which you may be entitled under Cerner's employee benefit plans as of your termination date; provided that, in no event shall you be entitled to any payments in the nature of any other severance or termination payments (such as under Cerner’s Enhanced Severance Pay Plan). Those amounts described in this Paragraph 2.B.1 (x), (y) and (z) are referred to herein collectively as the "Accrued Amounts."  Payment upon termination of your employment by Cerner for any reason other than an Ineligible Severance Event is covered by Paragraph 2.C.  

		
	2.
	Termination by You.  You may resign from your employment with Cerner at any time upon written notice to Cerner of your intention to resign from employment.  Any resignation notice must be submitted to Cerner at least thirty (30) days prior to your intended last day of employment.  Cerner, however, reserves the right either to accelerate your last day of employment or to allow your intended last day of employment to stand.  If you resign with fewer than thirty (30) days’ notice, or if you actually leave Cerner’s employ prior to expiration of the notice period without the permission of Cerner, then you agree that (to the extent permitted by law) no Accrued Amounts from the date you submitted your resignation notice to your last day of employment will be owed or paid to you by Cerner. All other Accrued Amounts will be paid. You may also terminate your employment hereunder upon written notice to Cerner in the event of a Constructive Termination (before a Change in Control) or for Good Reason (after a Change in Control) and, subject to you satisfying your obligations under Paragraph 2.C.3 (Severance Agreement and Release), be entitled to certain severance and benefit compensation as provided in Paragraph 2.C.  

You agree to report to Cerner the identity of your new employer (if any) and the nature of your proposed duties for that employer.    
		
	C.
	Severance and Benefits.  

		
	1.
	Non-Change in Control - Termination by Cerner for other than an Ineligible Severance Event or Resignation following Constructive Termination.  Subject to you satisfying your obligations under Paragraph 2.C.3. (Severance Agreement and Release), if, prior to a Change in Control or at any time after twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, (i) Cerner terminates your employment other than in connection with an Ineligible Severance Event or (ii) you resign from employment following a Constructive Termination, Cerner will within sixty (60) days (or later if required by Code Section 409A) of your termination of employment:

		
	a.
	Pay you your Accrued Amounts; and

		
	b.
	Commence severance payments to you equal to the sum of (i) two (2) year’s base salary (based on your annual base salary at the time of your termination), plus (ii) two (2) times the average annual cash bonus you received from Cerner during the three (3) years preceding the termination of your employment, less (iii) normal tax and payroll deductions.  Such severance pay will be payable pro rata during the twenty-four (24) month severance term on Cerner’s regular paydays; and 

		
	c.
	Commence payments to you having an aggregate value equal to twenty-four (24) times the difference between the monthly COBRA continuation premium cost to cover you and your dependents (to the extent covered under Cerner's health, vision and dental the plans on the date of your termination of employment) under Cerner's health, vision and dental plans in effect as of the date of your termination and the monthly amount you were paying for such coverage at the effective date of your termination. Such payments will be payable pro rata during the twenty-four (24) month severance term on Cerner’s regular paydays. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Cerner making payments under this Paragraph 2.C.1.c would violate the nondiscrimination rules applicable to non-grandfathered plans under the Affordable Care Act or result in the imposition of penalties under the Affordable Care Act, the parties agree to reform this Paragraph 2.C.1.c in a manner as is necessary to comply with the Affordable Care Act; and

		
	d.
	With respect to outstanding equity awards, fully vest and, if applicable pay or deliver immediately, or a later date in conformity with Code Section 409A, any shares or other property relating to any equity incentive awards granted to you under any Cerner equity incentive plans after June 1, 2005.  For purposes of this Paragraph 2.C.1.d, any performance-based award shall become vested or settled assuming an "at-target" level of goal achievement had been attained.

		
	2.
	Change in Control - Termination by Cerner for other than an Ineligible Severance Event or Resignation for Good Reason.  Subject to you satisfying your obligations under Paragraph 2.C.3 (Severance Agreement and Release), if there is a Change in Control of Cerner and within twelve (12) months following the date such Change in Control becomes effective Cerner terminates your employment for any reason other than on account of an Ineligible Severance Event or you resign from employment with Good Reason, then Cerner will, within sixty (60) days (or later if required by Code Section 409A) of your termination of employment:

		
	a.
	Pay you your Accrued Amounts;

		
	b.
	Commence severance payments to you equal to the sum of (i) two (2) years’ base salary (based on your annual base salary at the time of your termination or resignation), plus (ii) two (2) times the average annual cash bonus you received from Cerner during the three (3) years preceding the termination or resignation of your employment, less (iii) normal tax and payroll deductions.  

Such severance pay will be payable in lump sum within sixty (60) days of the effective date of the termination of your employment;  

		
	c.
	Commence payments to you having an aggregate value equal to twenty-four (24) times the difference between the monthly COBRA continuation premium cost to cover you and your dependents (to the extent covered under Cerner's health, vision and dental plans on the date of your termination of employment) under Cerner's health, vision and dental plans in effect as of the date of your termination and the monthly amount you were paying for such coverage at the effective date of your termination. Such payments will be payable pro rata during the twenty-four (24) month severance term on Cerner’s regular paydays. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Cerner's making payments under this Paragraph 2.C.2.c would violate the nondiscrimination rules applicable to non-grandfathered plans under the Affordable Care Act or result in the imposition of penalties under the Affordable Care Act, the parties agree to reform this Paragraph 2.C.2.c in a manner as is necessary to comply with the Affordable Care Act; and

		
	d.
	Fully vest all outstanding unvested equity incentive awards granted to you under any Cerner equity incentive plans after June 1, 2005.  For purposes of this Paragraph 2.C.2.d, any performance-based award shall become vested or settled assuming an "at-target" level of goal achievement had been attained.   

		
	3.
	Severance Agreement and Release.  As a condition to your receiving severance in accordance with this Paragraph 2.C, upon your resignation or the termination of your employment, you agree to promptly execute and not revoke a written severance agreement, which release will be provided to you within ten (10) days of your termination date, containing normal and customary provisions, including but not limited to, a release releasing Cerner from any claims against Cerner related to your employment with Cerner that you might have at the time of or following the termination of your employment, and reasonable and customary representations and warranties.

		
	4.
	Forfeiture and Reimbursement.  Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Executive Severance Agreement, if you breach any confidentiality, non-competition or other material provision in your Employment Agreement following the termination of your employment with Cerner, Cerner’s obligation, if applicable, to deliver severance payments and benefits to you under this Paragraph 2.C, and the vesting of any equity incentive awards described in this Paragraph 2.C, will cease immediately, you will reimburse Cerner the amount of severance payments delivered to you by Cerner prior to such breach by you, and you will forfeit to Cerner all equity incentive awards (or the proceeds of exercised awards) that vested based on or after such termination of your employment and prior to your breach.

		
	5.
	ERISA Claims Review Procedures.  To the extent any severance payments described in this Paragraph 2.C are covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Claims Review Procedures are available from Cerner.

		
	6.
	Compliance with Section 409A.

		
	a.
	General Compliance. This Executive Severance Agreement and any severance payments contemplated to be made hereunder is intended to comply with Section 409A or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and administered in accordance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Executive Severance Agreement, payments provided under this Executive Severance Agreement may only be made upon an event and in a manner that complies with Section 409A or an applicable exemption. Any payments under this Executive Severance Agreement that may be excluded from Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service or as a short-term deferral shall be excluded from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided under this Executive Severance Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. Any payments to be made under this Executive Severance Agreement upon a termination of employment shall only be made upon a "separation from service" under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cerner makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Executive Severance Agreement comply with Section 409A, and in no event shall Cerner be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest, or other expenses that may be incurred by you on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.

		
	b.
	Specified Employees. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Executive Severance Agreement, if any payment or benefit provided to you in connection with your termination of employment is determined to constitute "nonqualified deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A and you are determined to be a "specified employee" as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(b)(i), then such payment or benefit shall not be paid until the first payroll date to occur following the six-month anniversary of the your termination date or, if earlier, on your death (the "Specified Employee Payment Date"). The aggregate of any payments that would otherwise have been paid before the Specified Employee Payment Date shall be paid to you in a lump sum on the Specified Employee Payment Date and thereafter, any remaining payments shall be paid without delay in accordance with their original schedule.

		
	c.
	Reimbursements. To the extent required by Section 409A, each reimbursement or in-kind benefit provided under this Executive Severance Agreement shall be provided in accordance with the following:

		
	i.
	the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during each calendar year cannot affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year;

		
	ii.
	any reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be paid to you on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and

		
	iii.
	any right to reimbursements or in-kind benefits under this Executive Severance Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

		
	D.
	Partial Accelerated Vesting upon a Change in Control.  In connection with a Change in Control, 50% of each outstanding and unvested equity incentive award granted to you under any Cerner equity incentive plan after June 1, 2005 and prior to the date of the Change in Control becomes effective will become vested on the date the Change in Control becomes effective.  The remaining 50% of each such outstanding equity incentive award that has not yet vested will continue to vest according to its vesting schedule (unless your employment is terminated for any reason other than in connection with an Ineligible Severance Event or you resign for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following the date the Change in Control becomes effective, in which case 100% of such award will become vested as provided above in Paragraph 2.C.2; or in the event your employment is terminated for any reason other than in connection with an Ineligible Severance Event or a Constructive Termination at any time after twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, in which case 100% of such award will become vested as provided above in Paragraph 2.C.1).  For purposes of this Paragraph 2.D, any performance-based award which becomes 50% vested upon a Change in Control shall mean that an "at-target" level of goal achievement had been attained with respect to 50% of the award. 

		
	E.
	Modified 280G Carve-Back.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Executive Severance Agreement to the contrary, if on an after-tax basis the aggregate payments and benefits paid pursuant to Paragraph 2.C.2 or Paragraph 2.D would be larger if the portion of such payments and benefits constituting "parachute payments" under Code Section 280G were reduced by the minimum amount necessary to avoid the imposition of the excise tax under Code Section 4999, then such payments and benefits shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to avoid such excise tax.  Any such reduction shall occur in a manner that maximizes your economic position.  In applying this principle, the reduction shall be made in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A, and where two economically equivalent amounts are subject to reduction but payable at different times, such amounts shall be reduced on a pro rata basis but not below zero.  Any determination required under this Paragraph 2.E shall be made in writing in good faith by an accounting firm selected by Cerner, which is reasonably acceptable to you (the “Accountants”).  Cerner and you shall provide the Accountants with such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Paragraph 2.E.  Cerner shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Accountants.

		
	F.
	409(a) Modifications.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Cerner may modify your Employment Agreement and this Executive Severance Agreement from time to time without your consent if Cerner’s legal counsel deems doing so to be advisable to comply with Section 409A of the Code and you agree that any such modifications shall be binding upon you.

		
	2.
	PARAGRAPH 3 MODIFICATION.  The following is added to Paragraph 3 of your Employment Agreement:

Nothing in this paragraph (i) prohibits you from using or disclosing Confidential Information in connection with reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity or attorney in accordance with any whistleblower protection provisions of applicable law or 

regulation including 18 U.S.C. § 1833 or (ii) requires notification or prior approval by Cerner of any reporting described in clause (i). However, any disclosure must be made in accordance with the applicable law or regulation and in a manner that limits-to the furthest extent possible-disclosure of Confidential Information.
		
	3.
	ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND PRIOR AGREEMENTS.

We agree that your Employment Agreement, as amended by this Executive Severance Agreement, otherwise remains in full force and effect.  This Executive Severance Agreement represents your entire agreement with Cerner concerning the subject matter hereof and cancels, terminates and supersedes any of your previous oral or written understandings or agreements with Cerner or with any director, officer or representative of Cerner with respect to the subject matter hereof. Without limitation, the severance benefits and payments eligible to be provided under this Executive Severance Agreement supersede and replace any benefits or payments you might otherwise be eligible to receive under your Employment Agreement, the Cerner Enhanced Severance Pay Plan, any successor thereto, or any other broad-based Cerner severance plan or policy which otherwise would be applicable to you. 
This Cerner Executive Severance Agreement is executed as of this 11 day of September, 2017.

If you are a full-time Associate and Cerner either (i) terminates your employment without Cause and provides less than ten (10) business days notice of such termination, or (ii) accelerates your requested termination date to a date less than ten (10) business days from your notice of voluntary resignation, Cerner will pay you in conjunction with such termination the equivalent of two (2) weeks base salary (exclusive of commissions, advances against commissions, bonus and other non-salary compensation and Associate benefits) less any base salary compensation paid to you for the time you work from the notice of termination or resignation through your actual termination date.

In the event your termination occurs during a period associated with a bonus or incentive compensation plan, any final payments to you as a result of your participation in such plan will be determined by the terms of the plan.

Pursuant to the terms of Cerner's published policies, as may be amended from time to time, Cerner may pay or reimburse you for certain reasonable costs associated with: (i) any relocation required by Cerner, or (ii) Other Assistance Programs in which Cerner provides assistance. In the event that Cerner pays or reimburses you for any relocation costs or costs associated with Other Assistance Programs, you agree to repay such sums to Cerner in accordance with the terms of the policy in effect at the time of the reimbursement or other payment.  You further agree that Cerner may, at its discretion, deduct from your paycheck(s) and any other amounts owed to you by Cerner, any such sums required to be repaid under this provision and that you will repay Cerner any outstanding balance owed within thirty (30) days of your employment termination. Regardless of the duration stated herein, nothing contained in this provision shall create employment for a definite term or otherwise modify the parties "at will" relationship set forth in section 2.8. of this Agreement.

I represent that I have complied with and will continue to comply with all of the provisions  of the Cerner  Associate   Employment Agreement entered into between Cerner Corporation and me on the _______ day of ___________, 20____, ("Employment Agreement”) including without limitation, compliance with the following:

1.    Confidentiality: I have not improperly disclosed or otherwise misused any Confidential Information as defined in my Employment 
Agreement. I understand that upon my termination of employment with Cerner, I am not permitted to take or utilize any Cerner Confidential Information acquired by me in the course of my employment with Cerner and that I will forever maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information as defined in the Employment Agreement.

I certify that as of my termination date, I have returned and/or destroyed (at Cerner's direction} all Confidential Information, which was previously in my possession.

2.    Non-competition: I understand and agree to honor my contractual obligations with respect to non-competition, as specifically set 
forth in my Employment Agreement under section 6 of my Employment Agreement. If I have accepted employment with a Conflicting Organization or if I am pursuing employment with a Conflicting Organization, I have disclosed the noncompete terms found in section 6 to the Conflicting Organization and I have disclosed the name of the Conflicting Organization and my new job responsibilities to Cerner as required under section 2.C.

3.    Non-solicitation: I understand and agree to honor my contractual obligations, as specifically set forth in my Employment Agreement, 
not, on behalf of myself or others, to employ, solicit for employment or otherwise seek to employ or retain any Cerner Associate, or any employee of a Cerner client company, or in any way assist or facilitate any such employment, solicitation or retention effort.

4.    Work Product: I understand and agree to honor my contractual obligations to disclose to Cerner all Work  Product  developed, authored, 
conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by me as  covered  by  my  Employment  Agreement  and to honor the other terms and conditions set forth in section 4.

5.    Cerner Property: I do not have in my possession, nor have I taken with me or failed to return, any Cerner Property as defined in my

6.    Surviving Terms: I understand that, with regard to all provisions of my Employment Agreement relating to, without limitation, Confidential
