 Exhibit 10.35 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made as of this 28th day of August , 2009, by and between LIFECARE MANAGEMENT
SERVICES, L.L.C., a Louisiana limited liability company (“LifeCare”), and Erik C. Pahl (“Employee”). LifeCare and Employee are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the
“Parties.” 
 RECITALS: 
 LifeCare desires to employ Employee as the General Counsel for LifeCare Management Services, LLC, and the Parties desire to set forth the terms and conditions of Employee’s employment with
LifeCare. This agreement is intended to supersede any prior understanding or agreements, whether written or oral, concerning Employee’s employment with LifeCare, LifeCare Holdings, Inc. (“Parent”), or any of their respective
subsidiaries or affiliates. 
 AGREEMENT: 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

  

	1.	EMPLOYMENT. LifeCare hereby employs Employee to devote his personal services to the business and affairs of
LifeCare, and Employee hereby accepts such employment, on the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement. 

  

	 	1.1.	Duties. Employee’s title and position shall be General Counsel. Employee’s duties will be those customarily performed by persons acting in that
capacity and those that may be designated by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors of LifeCare (the “Board”) consistent with the title and position of a General Counsel. 

  

	 	1.2.	Full-Time Employee. Employee shall devote his full time (except for reasonable vacation time and absence for any disability), attention, and best efforts to the
performance of his duties described in Article 1.1. Employee may, however, engage in civic, charitable, professional or trade activities and National Guard activities so long as those activities do not interfere with the performance of his
duties under this Agreement. 

  

	2.	TERM. The term of Employee’s employment under this Agreement (the “Term”) shall be as
follows: 

  

	 	2.1.	Initial Term. The initial term shall commence on the date of this Agreement and end at 11:59:59 p.m., Central Time, on the day preceding the first anniversary of
the date of this Agreement unless (i) terminated earlier pursuant to Article 5.1 or (ii) extended pursuant to Article 2.2. 

  

	 	2.2.	 Extended Term. Upon the expiration of the initial term described in Article 2.1, or of any subsequent extended term described in this
Article 2.2, the one-year

	 	 
term shall be extended, without the need for any action by either Party, for an additional consecutive year, unless either Party gives notice to the other, at least 90 days before the expiration
date, that the notifying Party does not wish to extend the term. If such a notice is timely given, the Term will expire at the end of the initial term or renewal term in effect at the time of that notice. 

  

	3.	COMPENSATION. As compensation for the services rendered by Employee under this Agreement, LifeCare shall,
during the Term, pay or provide Employee during the Term the following: 

  

	 	3.1.	Base Salary. LifeCare shall pay Employee during the Term a base salary equal to $ 225,000.00 per annum, payable in arrears, in accordance with
LifeCare’s regular and routine payroll dates, or at such intervals as may otherwise be agreed upon by the Parties, and in accordance with any other payroll procedures of LifeCare. Base salary shall be prorated (on a daily basis) in accordance
with applicable federal and state law for any partial payroll period of employment under this Agreement. The amount of base salary may be increased from time to time at the sole discretion of the Board. 

  

	 	3.2.	Bonus Compensation. During each fiscal year completed during the Term, Employee shall be eligible to receive additional cash compensation as a bonus, incentive
or other similar payment in accordance with the Senior Vice President position in LifeCare’s management incentive plan. The additional cash compensation, however, is not guaranteed and is dependent upon both (i) achieving predefined goals
for the fiscal year as determined by and in the sole discretion of the Board and (ii) the discretion of the Board in awarding the bonus, regardless of whether the predefined goals were achieved. The amount or amounts of cash compensation which
Employee potentially may earn by that participation will be determined by the Board (or a committee or other persons appointed by the Board to administer that plan) and will be payable to the Employee not later than two and one-half months following
the end of the fiscal year for which the bonus was earned. Employee must be currently employed by LifeCare at the time that bonuses are distributed to receive any bonus compensation. Employee will not receive a bonus following termination of
employment for any reason. To the extent that the terms and conditions of any written bonus or retention plan in which Employee participates conflict with the terms and provisions of this Article 3.2, the terms of such written bonus or
retention plan shall control. 

 Sign-On Bonus. A $25,000.00 sign-on bonus shall be due and payable to
Employee after completing one year of employment with LifeCare 
  

	 	3.3.	Savings and Retirement Plans. Employee shall be eligible to participate in any executive savings, deferred compensation, retirement or pension, or death benefit
plan adopted by LifeCare for its executives having positions similar to Employee’s position and in effect during the Term. The extent to which Employee may participate in any such plan will be determined by the Board (or a committee or other
persons appointed by the Board to administer that plan) in its sole discretion. 

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	2	  	

	 	3.4.	Welfare Benefit Plans. Employee shall be eligible to participate in any life insurance, medical, dental, and hospitalization insurance, disability insurance
benefit, or other similar employee welfare benefit plan or program adopted by LifeCare covering its employees generally or its executives having positions similar to Employee’s position and in effect during the Term. 

 

	 	3.5.	Paid Time Off. Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation or time off (“EPTO”) per fiscal year of LifeCare, in accordance with LifeCare’s
EPTO policies, practices, and procedures. Such EPTO shall, however, be prorated in any fiscal year during which Employee is employed under this Agreement for less than the entire fiscal year, in accordance with the number of days in that fiscal year
during which Employee is so employed. 

  

	 	3.6.	Tax Withholding. LifeCare may deduct from any compensation or other amount payable to Employee under this Agreement (including under Article 5) social
security (FICA) taxes and all federal, state, municipal, and other taxes or governmental charges as may, in LifeCare’s judgment, be required. 

  

	 	3.7.	Participation in Compensation and Benefit Plans. Employee’s participation during the Term in any or all of the plans or programs adopted by LifeCare
described in Articles 3.2 through 3.5 (“Compensation and Benefit Plans”) will be subject to the terms and conditions of those Compensation and Benefit Plans as they now exist or may hereafter be adopted, amended, restated, or
discontinued by LifeCare, including the satisfaction of all applicable eligibility requirements and vesting provisions of those Compensation and Benefit Plans. LifeCare shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue any or all of the
Compensation and Benefit Plans that now exist or are hereafter adopted. To the extent that Employee is eligible to participate in any Compensation and Benefit Plan existing on the date of this Agreement for which a plan description or plan materials
are available, LifeCare has provided to Employee, and Employee hereby acknowledges receipt of, a copy of the correct and complete written plan description or plan materials distributed to participants or prospective participants.

  

	4.	EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. During the Term, Employee may incur, and shall be reimbursed by
LifeCare for, reasonable, ordinary and necessary, and documented business expenses to the extent that Employee complies with, and reimbursement is permitted by, LifeCare’s policies, practices, and procedures. Any such reimbursement that would
constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) shall be made, if at all, not later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in
which the expense was incurred. 

  

	5.	EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION. The Parties’ respective rights and obligations
upon termination of employment are, as follows: 

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	3	  	

	 	5.1.	Expiration or Termination Generally. Upon the expiration of the Term, or if Employee’s employment under this Agreement terminates for any reason, LifeCare
shall pay or provide Employee the following: 

  

	 	5.1.1.	Any base salary earned by, but not yet paid to, Employee through the effective date of termination of employment (the “Termination Date”);

  

	 	5.1.2.	All benefits, or (at LifeCare’s option) the cash equivalent of all benefits, that have been earned by or vested in, and are payable to, Employee under, and subject
to the terms (including all eligibility requirements) of, the Compensation and Benefit Plans in which Employee participated through the Termination Date; 

  

	 	5.1.3.	All reimbursable expenses due, but not yet paid, to Employee as of the Termination Date under Article 4; and 

 The amount of base salary due under Article 5.1.1 shall be paid no later than the thirty (30) business days after the Termination
Date or as otherwise required by law; the amounts or benefits due under Article 5.1.2 shall be paid or provided in accordance with the terms of the Compensation and Benefit Plans under which such amounts or benefits are due to Employee; and
the amounts due under Article 5.1.3 shall be paid in accordance with the terms of LifeCare’s policies, practices, and procedures regarding reimbursable expenses. Except as expressly provided below in this Article 5, upon paying or
providing Employee the preceding amounts or benefits, LifeCare shall have no further obligation or liability under this Agreement for base salary or any other cash compensation or for any benefits under any of the Compensation and Benefit Plans.

 In this Agreement, the “Termination Date” shall be (i) the date of expiration of the Term, (ii) the
date of Employee’s death, (iii) the third business day after the date on which LifeCare gives notice of termination because of Disability, or (iv) the date of termination specified in any other notice of termination, whether for Cause
(as defined below) or without Cause, or if not specified in the notice of termination, the date that notice of termination is given. 
 In this Agreement, “Disability” means Employee’s permanent and total disability, which shall be deemed to exist if he is unable reasonably to perform his duties under this Agreement because of any medically
determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in imminent death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for at least 90 consecutive days. Any disability shall be determined in good faith by the Board or an
authorized committee or representative thereof (“Representative”), in its sole and absolute discretion, upon receipt of competent medical advice from a qualified physician selected by or acceptable to the Board or its
Representative. Employee shall, if there is any question about his Disability, submit to a physical examination by a qualified physician selected by the Board or its Representative and with respect to whom Employee has no reasonable material
objection. 
  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	4	  	

 In this Agreement, “Cause” means any of the following:
(i) Employee’s failure to substantially perform his duties under this Agreement, other than any such failure resulting from his Disability; (ii) Employee’s engaging in any action which, or omitting to engage in any action the
omission of which, has been, is, or can reasonably expected to be substantially injurious (monetarily or otherwise) to LifeCare or its business or reputation; (iii) Employee’s performance of any act or omission constituting dishonesty that
results, directly or indirectly, in gain or enrichment of Employee or his family or affiliates at the expense of LifeCare; or (iv) any breach by Employee of any obligation under any of Articles 6, 7, 8, and 9. Whether an event or
circumstance constituting Cause exists will be determined in good faith by the Board or its Representative. 
  

	 	5.2.	Termination Without Cause, Upon Death or Disability, or Upon Expiration of the Term Resulting from Nonrenewal by LifeCare. If (i) Employee’s employment
is terminated by death; by LifeCare because of Disability; or by LifeCare without Cause or (ii) the Term of this Agreement expires pursuant to a notice sent from LifeCare to Employee in accordance with Article 2.2 indicating that
LifeCare does not wish the Term of this Agreement to be extended, then Employee (or his legal representative, estate or heirs) shall be entitled to receive from LifeCare, as liquidated damages, the continued payment of Employee’s base salary,
at the annual rate in effect at the Termination Date, for the six (6) consecutive months immediately after the Termination Date (the “Severance Payments”). The Severance Payments shall be (i) paid at LifeCare’s
regular and routine payroll dates, or at such intervals as may otherwise be agreed upon by the Parties, and in accordance with any other payroll procedures of LifeCare, and (ii) in addition to the amounts or benefits to which Employee is
entitled under Article 5.1 and any rights or remedies Employee may have under the Compensation and Benefit Plans. The Severance Payments will commence on LifeCare’s next regular payday that is at least five (5) business days
following the later of the effective date of the Release Agreement (as defined below) and the date LifeCare receives the executed Release Agreement, and the first Severance Payment shall be retroactive to the day following the Termination Agreement.
The Severance Payments shall not be deemed the continuation of Employee’s employment for any purpose. 

  

	 	5.3.	Conditions to Severance Payments. Except as provided below in this Article 5.3, none of the Severance Payments will be subject to reduction as the result
of future compensation earned or received by Employee (including by self-employment), and Employee shall have no duty to mitigate his damages. The Severance Payments shall, however, be conditioned upon: 

  

	 	5.3.1.	LifeCare’s receipt of a timely and effective Release of Claims executed and performed by Employee (or his legal representative, estate or heirs) ins substantially
the form of Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Release Agreement”) following termination of employment hereunder and by the deadline specified therein, and returning it to LifeCare within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of
termination of employment; and 

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	5	  	

	 	5.3.2.	The compliance by Employee (or his legal representative, estate, or heirs) with Articles 6, 7, 8, and 9 after the Termination Date as specified in those
Articles, as well as with the Release Agreement. For purposes of Articles 6, 7, 8 and 9, the term “LifeCare” shall be deemed to include LifeCare, LifeCare Holdings, Inc. and any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.

  

	 	5.4	(a) the compensation, benefits, and other payment described in this Agreement are intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the treasury
regulations and other guidance issued thereunder, as in effect from time to time, to the extent they are subject to Code Section 409A, or to be exempt from such requirements, regulations and guidance (where an exemption is available), and shall
be construed accordingly. For purposes of Code Section 409A, all references herein to termination of employment or similar terms, when used in a context that bears upon the payment or timing of payment of any amounts or benefits that constitute
or could constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, shall be construed to require a “separation from service” (as that term is defined in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(h), from LifeCare and from all other corporations and trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single “service recipient” with LifeCare under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(3). LifeCare
may, but need not, elect in writing, subject to the applicable limitations under Code Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) for purposes of determining whether a
“separation of service” has occurred. Any such written election shall be deemed part of this Agreement. In addition, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment
payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event may Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment 

 (b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if, at the time of the Employee’s termination of employment with
LifeCare the Employee is a “specified employee” (as hereinafter defined), any and all amounts payable in connection with such separation from service that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Code Section
409A, as determined by LifeCare in its sole discretion, and that would (but for this sentence) be payable within six months following such separation from service, shall instead be paid a lump sum on the first payroll date after the date that
follows the Employee’s separation from service by six (6) months, or, if the Employee dies before such payment, within sixty (60) days after Employee’s death. For purposes of this Section, “specified employee” means an
individual determined by LifeCare to be a specified employee as defined in subsection (a)(2)(B)(i) of Code Section 409A. LifeCare may, but need not elect in writing, subject to the applicable

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	6	  	

 
limitations under Code Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) for purposes of determining “specified employee”
status. Any such written election shall be deemed part of this Agreement. 
 LifeCare may reduce the amount of or discontinue the
Severance Payments to be made to Employee (or his legal representative, estate, or heirs) if, and LifeCare shall be entitled to a return of amounts of the Severance Payments made to the extent that, there is or has been any violation of any of
Articles 6, 7, 8, and 9 or of the Release Agreement. 
  

	6.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. LifeCare shall provide to Employee, during the Term, access to
various trade secrets, confidential information, and proprietary information of LifeCare (which, in this Article 6 as well as in Articles 7, 8, and 9, shall include LifeCare’s subsidiaries and affiliates) which are valuable and
unique to LifeCare (“Confidential Information”). Employee shall not, either while in the employ of LifeCare or at any time thereafter, (i) use any of the Confidential Information, or (ii) disclose any of the Confidential
Information to any person not an employee of LifeCare or not engaged to render services to LifeCare, except (in either case) to perform his duties under this Agreement or otherwise with LifeCare’s prior written consent. Nothing in this
Article 6 shall preclude Employee from the use or disclosure of information generally known to the public or not considered confidential by LifeCare or from any disclosure to the extent required by law or court order (though Employee must
give LifeCare prior notice of any such required disclosure and must cooperate with any reasonable requests of LifeCare to obtain a protective order regarding, or to narrow the scope of, the Confidential Information required to be disclosed). All
files, records, documents, information, data, and similar items relating to the business or affairs of LifeCare, whether prepared by Employee or otherwise coming into his possession, shall remain the exclusive property of LifeCare and shall not be
removed from the premises from LifeCare, except in the ordinary course of business as part of Employee’s performance of his duties under this Agreement, and (in any event) shall be promptly returned or delivered to LifeCare (without
Employee’s retaining any copies) upon the expiration of the Term or termination of employment under this Agreement. 

  

	7.	 NONCOMPETITION. Employee acknowledges that, in addition to his access to and possession of
Confidential Information, during the Term he will acquire valuable experience and special training regarding LifeCare’s business and that the knowledge, experience, and training he will acquire would enable him to injure LifeCare if he were to
engage in any business that is competitive with the business of LifeCare. LifeCare agrees, in consideration of the Employee’s acceptance of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, to grant the Employee access to trade secret and other
Confidential Information of LifeCare and to LifeCare’s valuable business relations and goodwill. Therefore, Employee shall not, at any time during the Term and for the twelve (12) consecutive months immediately after the Termination Date,
directly or indirectly (as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, shareholder, officer, director, or manager or in any other individual or representative capacity), engage, invest, or participate in (i) any long-term
acute care hospital business that is in direct competition with the business of LifeCare within a thirty (30) mile radius of any long-term acute care

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	7	  	

	 	 
hospital facility operated by LifeCare or its affiliates, subsidiaries or operating entities, or (ii) within 30 miles of any other healthcare business operated by LifeCare at the time of
Employee’s Termination Date. (Employee shall not be prohibited, however, from owning, as a passive investor, less than five percent of the publicly traded stock of any corporation engaged in a business competitive with that of LifeCare.)
Employee represents that the enforcement of the restriction in this Article 7 would not be unduly burdensome to Employee and that, in order to induce LifeCare to enter into this Agreement (which contains various benefits to Employee and
obligations of LifeCare with respect to Employee’s employment), Employee is willing and able to compete after the Termination Date in other geographical areas not prohibited by this Article 7. The Parties agree that the restrictions in
this Article 7 regarding scope of activity, duration, and geographic area are reasonable; however, if any court should determine that any of those restrictions is unenforceable, that restriction shall not thereby be terminated, but shall be
deemed amended to the extent required to render it enforceable. 

  

	8.	NONSOLICITATION. Employee shall not, at any time within the twelve (12) consecutive months immediately
after the Termination Date, either directly or indirectly: 

  

	 	8.1.	Disclose Contact Information. Make known to any person the names and addresses, or other contact information, of any of the customers, suppliers, or other
persons having significant business relationships with LifeCare within the health care industry, so that such person could affect, or attempt to affect, any of those relationships to the detriment of LifeCare; or 

  

	 	8.2.	Solicit Employees. Directly or indirectly solicit, recruit, or hire, or attempt to solicit, recruit, or hire, any individual who was an employee or consultant of
LifeCare during the last six (6) months of Employee’s employment, or in any other manner attempt to induce any individual who was an employee or consultant of LifeCare during the last six (6) months of Employee’s employment to
leave the employ of LifeCare or cease his or her consulting or similar business relationship with LifeCare. 

  

	9.	DEVELOPMENTS. Employee shall promptly disclose to LifeCare all inventions, discoveries, improvements,
processes, formulas, ideas, know-how, methods, research, compositions, and other developments, whether or not patentable or copyrightable, that Employee, by himself or in conjunction with any other person, conceives, makes, develops, or acquires
during the Term which (i) are or relate to the properties, assets, or existing or contemplated business or research activities of LifeCare, (ii) are suggested by, arise out of, or result from, directly or indirectly, Employee’s
association with LifeCare, or (iii) arise out of or result from, directly or indirectly, the use of LifeCare’s time, labor, materials, facilities, or other resources (“Developments”). 

 Employee hereby assigns, transfers, and conveys to LifeCare, and hereby agrees to assign, transfer, and convey to LifeCare during or after
the Term, all of his right and title to and interest in all Developments. Employee shall, from time to time upon the request of LifeCare during or after the Term, execute and deliver any and all instruments and documents and take any and all other
actions which, in the judgment of LifeCare or its

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	8	  	

 
counsel, are or may be necessary or desirable to document any such assignment, transfer, and conveyance to LifeCare or to enable LifeCare to file and process applications for, and to acquire,
maintain, and enforce, any and all patents, trademarks, registrations, or copyrights with respect to any of the Developments, or to obtain any extension, validation, re-issue, continuance, or renewal of any such patent, trademark, registration, or
copyright. LifeCare will be responsible for the preparation of any such instrument or document and for the implementation of any such proceedings and will reimburse Employee for all reasonable expenses incurred by him in complying with this
Article 9. 
  

	10.	CERTAIN REMEDIES. Any breach or violation by Employee of any of Articles 6, 7, 8, and 9
shall entitle LifeCare, as a matter of right, to an injunction issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, restraining any further or continued breach or violation, or to specific performance requiring the compliance with Employee’s
covenants. This right to an injunction or other equitable relief shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies to which LifeCare may be entitled. The existence of any claim or cause of action of Employee against LifeCare, or any
subsidiary or affiliate of LifeCare, whether based on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by LifeCare of Employee’s covenants in any of Articles 6, 7, 8, and 9. The covenants in Articles 6,
7, 8, and 9 and in this Article 10 shall survive the expiration or termination of Employee’s employment under this Agreement. 

  

	11.	AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by both parties. Such signed
instruments shall state the effective date of the amendment. 

  

	12.	BINDING AGREEMENT; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.
This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, LifeCare and Employee and their respective legal representatives, heirs, executors, administrators, and successors and assigns (as permitted by this Article 12),
including any successor to LifeCare by merger, consolidation, or reorganization and any other person that acquires all or substantially all of the business and assets of LifeCare. LifeCare shall have the right, without the need for any consent from
Employee, to assign its rights, benefits, remedies, and obligations under this Agreement to one or more other persons. The rights, benefits, remedies, and obligations of Employee under this Agreement are personal to Employee, however, and may not be
assigned or delegated by him; except that this shall not preclude (i) Employee from designating one or more beneficiaries to receive any amount or benefit that may be paid or provided after Employee’s death or (ii) the legal
representative of Employee’s estate from assigning any right or benefit under this Agreement to the person or persons entitled thereto under Employee’s will or the laws of intestacy applicable to Employee’s estate, as the case may be.

  

	13.	CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS. In this Agreement, (i) “person”
means an individual or any corporation, partnership, trust, unincorporated association, limited liability company, or other legal entity, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary, or other capacity, and any government, court, or governmental
agency, (ii) “include” and “including” do not signify any limitation, (iii) “Article” means any Article of this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, (iv) an
“affiliate” means any other person or entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with that person, and (v) “business day” means any Monday through Friday, other than any
such weekday on which the executive offices of LifeCare are closed. 

  

					
	EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT	  	9	  	

	14.	CODE OF CONDUCT. Employee shall adhere to, and conduct all of its activities
pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with, LifeCare’s Code of Conduct (a copy of which has been provided to, and reviewed by, Employee), which is a part of LifeCare’s Corporate Compliance Program. Employee agrees that all information
related to LifeCare’s Corporate Compliance Program constitutes confidential information and Employee shall protect, to the extent permitted by law, the confidential nature of such information. 

  

	15.	COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

  

	16.	ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement (together with any exhibits attached hereto) constitutes the
entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties, and there are no
warranties, representations or other agreements between the parties in connection with the subject matter hereof except as specifically set forth herein. No changes in or additions to this Agreement shall be recognized unless incorporated herein by
amendment, as provided herein, such amendment(s) to become effective on the date stipulated in such amendment(s). 

  

	17.	FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party shall be liable or be deemed in breach of this Agreement for any
failure or delay of performance which results, directly or indirectly, from acts of God, civil or military authority, public disturbance, accidents, fires, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of either party. 

 

	18.	GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; CONSENT TO
JURISDICTION. This Agreement, and the rights, remedies, obligations, and duties of the parties under this Agreement, shall be governed by, construed in accordance with and enforced under the laws
of the State of Texas, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws of such state. Venue for such action shall be proper in Collin County. The parties irrevocably (i) submit to the foregoing exclusive jurisdiction,
(ii) agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts, (iii) waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient or inappropriate forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding, and (iv) waive any defense based on lack of personal jurisdiction of any such purpose. 

  

	19.	HEADINGS. The headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and are not to be considered in
the interpretation of this Agreement. They shall not in any way limit the scope or modify the substance or context of any sections or articles of this Agreement.

	21.	NO RULE OF CONSTRUCTION. The parties acknowledge that this
Agreement was initially prepared by LifeCare solely as a convenience and that all parties and their counsel hereto have read and fully negotiated all the language used in this Agreement. The parties acknowledge that because all parties had an
opportunity for their counsel to participate in negotiating and drafting this Agreement, no rule of construction shall apply to this Agreement that construes ambiguous or unclear language in favor of or against any party.

other party shall be in writing and shall be either (i) personally delivered, (ii) mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, or (iii) delivered by overnight express delivery service or

OF the benefits to be provided me in connection with the termination of my employment, as set forth in the employment agreement between me,
                        , and LifeCare Management Services, L.L.C. dated as of
                         (the “Agreement”), which are conditioned on my signing this Release of Claims and to which I
am not otherwise entitled, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I, on my own behalf and on behalf of my heirs, executors, administrators, beneficiaries, representatives and
assigns, and all others connected with or claiming through me, hereby release and forever discharge LifeCare and all of its affiliates (as that term is defined in the Agreement) and all of their respective past, present and future direct and
indirect officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, employees, agents, general and limited partners, members, managers, joint venturers, representatives, successors and assigns, and all others connected with any of them, both individually and in
their official capacities, from any and all causes of action, rights and claims of any type or description, known or unknown, which I have had in the past, now have, or might now have, through the date of my signing of this Release of Claims, in any
way resulting from, arising out of or connected with my employment by LifeCare or any of its affiliates or the termination of that employment or pursuant to any federal, state or local law, regulation or other requirement (including without
limitation Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the fair employment practices laws of the state or states in which I have been employed by LifeCare or any of
its affiliates, each as amended from time to time). 
 Excluded from the scope of this Release of Claims is any claim arising
under the terms of the Agreement after the effective date of this Release of Claim. 
 In signing this Release of Claims, I
acknowledge my understanding that I may not sign it prior to the termination of my employment, but that I may consider the terms of this Release of Claims for up to twenty-one (21) days (or such longer period as LifeCare may specify) from the
later of the date my employment with LifeCare terminates or the date I receive this Release of Claims. I also acknowledge that I am advised by LifeCare and its affiliates to seek the advice of an attorney prior to signing this Release of Claims;
that I have had sufficient time to consider this Release of Claims and to consult with an attorney, if I wished to do so, or to consult with any other person of my choosing before signing; and that I am signing this Release of Claims voluntarily and
with a full understanding of its terms. 
 [Remainder of Page Intentionally Left Blank] 

 I further acknowledge that, in signing this Release of Claims, I have not relied on any promises or
representations, express or implied, that are not set forth expressly in this Release of Claims or the Agreement. I understand that I may revoke this Release of Claims at any time within seven (7) days of the date of my signing by written
notice to the Chair of the Board at its principal place of business and that this Release of Claims will take effect only upon the expiration of such seven-day revocation period and only if I have not timely revoked it.
