EHEALTH, INC.
SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
    This Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is by and between eHealth, Inc. (together with its subsidiary, eHealthInsurance Services, Inc., the “Company”) and Gregg Ratkovic (“Executive”).  
1.At-Will Employment.  Executive and the Company agree that Executive’s employment with Company constitutes “at-will” employment.  Executive and the Company acknowledge that this employment relationship may be terminated at any time, upon written notice to the other party, with or without Cause, at the option either of the Company or Executive.  However, as described in this Agreement, Executive may be entitled to severance benefits depending upon the circumstances of Executive’s termination of employment.  
2.Severance Benefits.
(a)Involuntary Termination Other than for Cause.  If the Company (or any parent or subsidiary of the Company) terminates Executive’s employment for other than “Cause” (as defined herein), and Executive signs and does not revoke a standard release of claims with the Company in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”), then Executive shall receive the following severance benefits from the Company:
(i)Severance Payment.  Executive shall receive continued payment (less applicable withholding taxes) of Executive’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, for a period of six (6) months following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices.
(ii)COBRA.  Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under Title X of the Consolidated Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), Executive shall receive one-hundred percent (100%) Company-paid group health, dental and vision coverage (the “Company-Paid Coverage”). If such coverage included Executive’s dependents immediately prior to the termination, such dependents shall also be covered at Company expense. Company-Paid Coverage shall continue until the earlier of (i) six (6) months following the date of termination, or (ii) the date upon which Executive and his dependents become covered under another employer’s group health, dental and vision plans that provide Executive and his dependents with comparable benefits and levels of coverage (such earlier date, the “COBRA Termination Date”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot provide the Company-Paid Coverage without a substantial risk of violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company shall in lieu thereof provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s (and Executive’s dependents’, as applicable) group health, dental and vision coverage in effect on the date of Executive’s employment termination 
1.

(which amount shall be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), which payments shall be made to Executive regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage and shall end on the COBRA Termination Date.
(b)Involuntary Termination Other than for Cause During the One-Year Period Following a Change in Control.  If the Company (or any parent or subsidiary of the Company) terminates Executive’s employment for other than “Cause” (as defined herein) during the one-year period following a Change in Control, and Executive signs and does not revoke the Release, then in addition to the severance benefits provided in Section 2(a) above, Executive shall receive the following severance benefits from the Company:
(i)Bonus Payment.  Executive shall receive a single lump-sum cash payment (less applicable withholding taxes) in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s then current target annual bonus.
(ii)Equity Award Vesting.  One hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s then outstanding and unvested time-based equity awards (whether stock options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units or otherwise) shall become vested and shall otherwise remain subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable equity incentive plan and the award agreements pursuant to which the time-based equity awards were granted. Executive’s then outstanding and unvested performance-based equity awards, shall vest in accordance with the terms of the applicable equity incentive plan and the award agreements pursuant to which the performance-based equity awards were granted and not pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, all performance-based equity awards, including those where performance goals have been achieved but which remain subject to time-based vesting, shall not be considered time-based awards under the terms of this Agreement and shall be governed by the applicable incentive plan and the award agreements pursuant to which the performance-based equity awards were granted. 
(c)Voluntary Resignation; Termination for Cause; Death or Disability.  If Executive’s employment with the Company terminates (i) voluntarily by Executive (ii) for Cause by the Company, or (iii) due to Executive’s death or Disability (as defined hereunder), then Executive shall not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits except for those (if any) as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans and practices or pursuant to other written agreements with the Company.  
(d)Exclusive Remedy.  The provisions of this Section 2 are intended to be and are Executive’s exclusive rights to severance payments and benefits in the event of termination of service.  The parties hereto agree that nothing herein is intended to result in duplication of severance or any other benefits.
(e)Code Section 409A.
(i)Any amount paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-l(b)(4) of the 
2.

regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code (the “Treasury Regulations”) shall not constitute Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits for purposes of Section 2(e)(ii) below, and consequently shall be paid to Executive promptly following termination as otherwise required by this Agreement.
(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) at the time of Executive’s separation from service (as such term is defined in Section 409A), then the cash severance benefits payable to Executive under this Agreement along with any other severance payments or separation benefits that may be considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits”) that are otherwise due to Executive on or within the six (6) month period following Executive’s separation from service shall accrue during such six (6) month period and shall become payable in a lump sum payment on the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service.  All subsequent payments, if any, shall be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Executive dies following his separation from service but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of his date of separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this Section shall be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death and all other Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits shall be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit.
(iii)Any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A-l(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit (as defined below) shall not constitute Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits for purposes of Section 2(e)(ii) above.  For purposes of this Section 2(e), “Section 409A Limit” will mean the lesser of two (2) times: (i) Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to Executive during the Company’s taxable year preceding the Company’s taxable year of Executive’s termination of employment as determined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-l(b)(9)(iii)(A)(l); or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which Executive’s employment is terminated.
(iv)It is the intent of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder shall be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted to so comply.  The Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A prior to actual payment to Executive.
3.

(v)Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, Executive’s receipt of severance payments and benefits under this Agreement is conditioned upon Executive signing and not revoking the Release and subject to the Release becoming effective within sixty (60) days following Executive’s termination of employment (the “Release Period”).  No severance will be paid or provided unless the Release becomes effective during the Release Period.  Any severance payments to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement shall be paid by the Company to Executive in cash and in full arrears on the date on which the Release becomes effective or such later date as is required to comply with Section 409A; provided however, that if the Release Period straddles two calendar years, the severance payments to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement shall be paid on the latest of (A) the date on which the Release becomes effective, (B) the first business day of the calendar year following the year in which Executive terminates employment with the Company or (C) such later date as is required to comply with Section 409A. 
(vi)With respect to reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided to Executive hereunder (or otherwise) that are not exempt from Section 409A, the following rules shall apply: (A) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during any one of Executive’s taxable years shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit to be provided in any other taxable year, (B) in the case of any reimbursements of eligible expenses, reimbursement shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred and (C) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
3.Golden Parachute Excise Tax Best Results.  If any payment or benefit Executive would receive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount.  The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax.  If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order: (A) cash payments shall be reduced first and in reverse chronological order such that the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced; (B) accelerated vesting of stock awards shall be cancelled/reduced next and in the reverse order of the date of grant for such stock awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted stock awards will be reduced first); and (C) employee benefits shall be reduced last and in reverse 
4.

chronological order such that the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first benefit to be reduced.
The Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm or consulting firm to make the determinations required hereunder and perform the foregoing calculations.  The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting or consulting firm required to be made hereunder.
The accounting or consulting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and Executive within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by the Company or Executive) or such other time as requested by the Company or Executive.  If the accounting or consulting firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish the Company and Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to such Payment.  Any good faith determinations of the accounting or consulting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive.
4.Definition of Terms.  The following terms referred to in this Agreement shall have the following meanings:
(a)Cause.  “Cause” shall mean (i) Executive’s commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement or dishonesty, (ii) Executive’s conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, (iii) Executive’s continued failure to perform lawfully assigned duties for 30 days after receiving written notification from the  Company, (iv) Executive’s unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company, or (v) any other intentional misconduct by Executive that adversely affects the business of the Company in a material manner.

In the event that Developer performs and Client pays for any services without having executed a Schedule or any other written agreement applying to such services, then such services will constitute Work under this Agreement and will be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Developer agrees to deliver final software applications (and all source code and object code related thereto) to Client no later than 3 months after receiving the $5,000 payment, described in Section 5, to commence activities related to the Work described in the Schedule.

2. ACCEPTANCE PROCESS. Unless provided otherwise in the applicable Schedule, Client will have forty-five (45) days following delivery of any Work in which to evaluate the Work and any portion thereof and submit a written notice of acceptance or rejection to Developer, or such other longer time as is reasonable under the circumstances. Client may accept or reject Work based on its failure to conform to any Schedule, specifications or warranties or its being unfit for Client’s intended purpose. No Work shall be deemed accepted absent Client’s written acknowledgement of its acceptance to Developer and shall therefore constitute Developer’s rejection of Work. In the event of Developer’s rejection of any Work, Developer will promptly correct the Work. If Developer fails to correct the Work within fifteen (15) days after notice of rejection or other reasonable period agreed to by the parties, Client may terminate the applicable Work to this Agreement, or the applicable portion thereof, and receive a full refund of amounts paid under such Schedule for the rejected Work.

3. SUBCONTRACTING. Developer may not subcontract the Work or any portion of the Work under this Agreement to any third party (including without limitation any independent contractor) without the prior written consent of Client. In the event that Client consents to the use of a subcontractor, then (a) Developer guarantees the subcontractor’s performance, (b) Developer remains obligated under this Agreement and the applicable Schedule for the performance of the subcontracted Work, notwithstanding Client’s consent to the use of a subcontractor, (c) Developer will, prior to the subcontractor begins to perform any of the subcontracted Work, enter into a written agreement with the subcontractor obligating the subcontractor to comply with Developer’s obligations under this Agreement and the applicable Schedule, (d) Client will have no obligation or liability to the subcontractor under this Agreement or any Schedule or otherwise and the subcontractor will have no rights or remedies against Client under this Agreement or any Schedule or otherwise, and (e) Client will have the right but not the obligation to directly pay the subcontractor for any Work it performs under this Agreement and to offset the amount of such payment against any amounts owed Developer. Developer may not impose on Client a surcharge for any subcontractor fees.

4. CLIENT MATERIALS. For purposes of this Agreement: “Client Materials” means any equipment or other tangible materials, software, documentation, methodologies, know how, processes, techniques, ideas, concepts, technologies, data and/or any other information that are provided by Client to Developer in connection with any Schedule. If Client provides Developer any Client Materials in connection with any Schedule, then Client hereby grants Developer a non-exclusive, personal, non-transferable, non-assignable license to (during the term of such Schedule and subject to any additional terms and conditions in any license or other agreement provided by Client with such Client Materials) internally use, modify and create derivative works of such Client Materials for the sole purpose of, and solely to the extent strictly necessary for, performing the Work under such Schedule. Any modifications, enhancements, and/or derivative works Developer makes of Client Materials will constitute Work assigned to Client under this Agreement. Client retains all right, title and interest in the Client Materials. The Client Materials constitute Client Confidential Information and are subject to Section 7 of this Agreement. Developer assumes the risk of loss, damage, unauthorized access and/or use, theft and/or disappearance of Client Materials in Developer’s care, custody or control. Developer will not remove, alter or obscure any markings identifying Client Materials as Client property or proprietary or confidential to Client. Developer acknowledges that Client Materials consisting of Client software are subject to U.S. export jurisdiction and may be of U.S. origin. Developer agrees to comply with all applicable international and national laws that apply to the Client Materials, including without limitation the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, as well as end-user, end-use and destination restrictions issued by U.S. and other governments.

5. PAYMENT TERMS. Client will pay Developer the fees for the Work in the amount of $5,000 (“Fees”). Client will prepay Developer (i) US$5,000 prior to commencement of Work. Developer will bear sole responsibility for all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of the Work, unless otherwise agreed to in advance and in writing by Client.

5.1 Client Invoice. Developer will invoice Client for all amounts due under this Agreement in accordance with any Schedule, this Agreement or as otherwise agreed upon in writing by the parties. Developer’s invoices will set forth all amounts due from Client to Developer and will contain sufficient detail to allow Client to determine the accuracy of the amount(s) billed. 

5.2 Payment Method. Payments by Client will be made, within Client’s discretion, according to Client’s then-current payment policies or as agreed upon in the applicable Schedule. Client will be entitled to offset any amounts that Developer owes to Client against any amounts Client owes to Developer.

5.3 Disputed Amounts. Client may dispute any payable amount by notice to Developer orally or in writing within sixty (60) calendar days of Client’s receipt of the invoice, which claim of dispute may concern not only the accuracy of the charge itself, but also any claim of deficient services or performance, or any other claim of breach of this Agreement that relates to the specific charges in the invoice. Any partial payment of an invoice will be deemed notice by Client of the disputed amount, unless such partial payment is in accordance with payment terms contained in the applicable Schedule for Work. All disputed amounts that Client subsequently agrees in writing to pay, or that are required to be paid pursuant to a proper court order or award from any mutually submitted arbitration, will be paid on the payment terms set forth in Section 5 above. Payment of an invoice without asserting a dispute is not a waiver of any claim or right. Failure by Client to dispute any invoiced amount within the periods set forth above will not be deemed a waiver of any claims that were unknown to Client at the time.
