 Exhibit 10.26 

AMENDED AND RESTATED 

HCIT HOLDINGS, INC. 2009 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

Section 1. Purpose. 
 This plan shall be known as
the “Amended and Restated HCIT Holdings, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan” (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to promote the interests of HCIT Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
its stockholders, and the Company Group by (i) attracting and retaining key officers, employees, and directors of, and consultants to, the Company Group; (ii) motivating such individuals by means of performance-related incentives to
achieve long-range performance goals; (iii) enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company Group; (iv) encouraging ownership of stock in the Company by such individuals; and
(v) linking their compensation to the long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders. With respect to any awards granted under the Plan that are intended to comply with the requirements of “performance-based compensation”
under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Plan shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with such requirements. 
 The Plan represents the successor to
the Amended and Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Plan of Change Healthcare, Inc. (the “2009 Plan”), which plan and certain awards outstanding thereunder were assumed by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated
under the Contribution Agreement entered into by the Company, Change Healthcare Inc. and the other parties thereto dated as of June 28, 2016 (the “Transaction”). 

In connection with the Transaction, the Company assumed the 2009 Plan, the Company assumed certain awards outstanding thereunder, as adjusted for the
Transaction (the “Converted Awards”), and the Company amended and restated the 2009 Plan. The Converted Awards will remain outstanding under the Plan and be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Award
Agreements evidencing such Converted Awards. For the avoidance of doubt, Converted Awards shall not constitute Substitute Awards.

Section 4. Shares Available For Awards. 

4.1 Shares Available. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, the stock to be subject to Awards under the Plan shall be
the Shares of the Company and the number of Shares that may be delivered pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall be 300,000. Subject to, in the case of ISOs, any limitations applicable thereto under the Code, if (a) any Shares are subject to an
Option, SAR, or other Award which for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled without having been fully exercised or satisfied, or are subject to any Restricted Share Award (including any Shares subject to a Participant’s Restricted
Share Award that are repurchased by the Company at the Participant’s cost), Restricted Share Unit Award or other Award granted under the Plan which are forfeited, or (b) any Award based on Shares is settled for cash, expires or otherwise
terminates without the issuance of such Shares, the Shares subject to such Award shall, to the extent of any such expiration, termination, cancellation, forfeiture or cash settlement, be available for delivery in connection with future Awards under
the Plan. If any Shares subject to an Award are not delivered to a Participant because the Award is exercised through a reduction of Shares subject to the Award (i.e., “net exercised”) or an appreciation distribution in respect of a SAR is
paid in Shares, then the number of Shares subject to the Award that are not delivered to the Participant shall remain available for subsequent issuance under the Plan. If any Shares subject to an Award are not delivered to a Participant because such
Shares are withheld in satisfaction of the withholding of taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, or the issuance of Shares under a Restricted Share Award or Restricted Share Unit, the number of Shares
that are not delivered to the Participant shall remain available for subsequent issuance under the Plan. If the exercise price of any Award is satisfied by tendering Shares by the Participant (either by actual delivery or attestation), then the
number of Shares so tendered shall remain available for subsequent issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2 hereof, no Participant may receive Options or SARs under the Plan in
any calendar year that, taken together, relate to more than 1,500,000 Shares.

form of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off,
combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Shares, then
the Committee shall in an equitable and proportionate manner as deemed appropriate by the Committee (and, as applicable, in such manner as is consistent with Sections 162(m), 422 and 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder) either:
(i) adjust any or all of (1) the aggregate number of Shares or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan; (2) the number of Shares
or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards under the Plan, provided that the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number; (3) the grant or
exercise price with respect to any Award under the Plan; and (4) the limits on the number of Shares or Awards that may be granted to Participants under the Plan in any calendar year; (ii) provide for an equivalent award in respect of
securities of the surviving entity of any merger, consolidation or other transaction or event having a similar effect; or (iii) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award. 

4.3 Substitute Awards. Any Shares issued by the Company as Substitute Awards in connection with the assumption or substitution of
outstanding grants from any acquired corporation shall not reduce the Shares available for Awards under the Plan. 
 4.4 Sources of Shares
Deliverable Under Awards. Any Shares delivered pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares or of issued Shares which have been reacquired by the Company. 

Section 5. Eligibility. 
 Any Employee, Director or
Consultant shall be eligible to be designated a Participant; provided, however, that Non-Employee Directors shall only be eligible to receive Awards granted consistent with Section 10. 

Section 6. Stock Options And Stock Appreciation Rights. 

6.1 Grant. Subject to the provisions of the Plan including, without limitation, Section 3.3 above and other applicable legal
requirements, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Participants to whom Options and SARs shall be granted, the number of Shares subject to each Award, the exercise price and the conditions and limitations applicable
to the exercise of each Option and SAR. An Option may be granted with or without a related SAR. A SAR may be granted with or without a related Option. The grant of an Option shall take place when the Committee by resolution, written consent or other
appropriate action determines to grant such Option for a particular number of Shares to a particular Participant at a particular Option Price. The Committee shall have the authority to grant Incentive Stock Options and to grant Non-Qualified Stock Options. In the case of Incentive Stock Options, the terms and conditions of such grants shall be subject to and comply with Section 422 of the Code, as from time to time amended, and any

granted an Option or SAR under this Plan may be granted additional Options or SARs under the Plan if the Committee shall so determine; provided, however, that to the extent the aggregate Fair
Market Value (determined at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which all Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Employee during any calendar year (under all plans described in of
Section 422(d) of the Code of the Employee’s employer corporation and its parent and Subsidiaries) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. 

6.2 Price. The Committee in its sole discretion shall establish the Option Price at the time each Option is granted and the Grant Price at the time each
SAR is granted. Except in the case of Substitute Awards, the Option Price of an Option may not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which the Option is granted on the date of grant of such
Option. In the case of Substitute Awards or Awards granted in connection with an adjustment provided for in Section 4.2 of the Plan in the form of Options, such grants shall have an Option Price per Share that is intended to maintain the
economic value of the Award that was replaced or adjusted, as determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as permitted by the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, the Committee shall not have the power to (i) amend
the terms of previously granted Options or SARs to reduce the Option Price of such Options or the Grant Price of such SARs, or (ii) cancel such Options or SARs and grant substitute Options or SARs with a lower Option Price or Grant Price than
the cancelled Options or SARs, in each case without the approval of the Company’s stockholders. Except with respect to Substitute Awards, SARs may not have a Grant Price less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. 

6.3 Term. Subject to the Committee’s authority under Section 3.1 and the provisions of Section 6.6, each Option and SAR and all rights
and obligations thereunder shall expire on the date determined by the Committee and specified in the Award Agreement. The Committee shall be under no duty to provide terms of like duration for Options or SARs granted under the Plan. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, but subject to the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 6.4, no Option or SAR shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date such Option or SAR was granted. 

6.4 Exercise. 
 Each Option and SAR shall
be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, specify in the applicable Award Agreement or thereafter. The Committee shall have full and complete authority to determine whether an
Option or SAR will be exercisable in full at any time or from time to time during the term of the Option or SAR, or to provide for the exercise thereof in such installments, upon the occurrence of such events and at such times during the term of the
Option or SAR as the Committee may determine. An Award Agreement may provide that the period of time over which an Option, other than an Incentive Stock Option, may be exercised shall be automatically extended if on the scheduled expiration of such
Option, the Participant’s exercise of such Option would violate applicable securities law; provided, however, that during the extended exercise period the Option may only be exercised to the extent the Option was exercisable in accordance with
its terms immediately prior to such scheduled expiration date; provided further, however, that such extended exercise period shall end not later than thirty (30) days after the exercise of such Option first would no longer violate such laws.

 pursuant to Rule 83 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

 

 The Committee may impose such conditions with respect to the exercise of Options, including
without limitation, any relating to the application of federal, state or foreign securities laws or the Code, as it may deem necessary or advisable. The exercise of any Option granted hereunder shall be effective only at such time as the sale of
Shares pursuant to such exercise will not violate any state or federal securities or other laws. 
 An Option or SAR may be exercised in
whole or in part at any time, with respect to whole Shares only, within the period permitted thereunder for the exercise thereof, and shall be exercised by written notice of intent to exercise the Option or SAR, delivered to the Company at its
principal office, and payment in full to the Company at the direction of the Committee of the amount of the Option Price for the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is then being exercised. 

Payment of the Option Price shall be made in (i) cash or cash equivalents, or, (ii) at the discretion of the Committee, by transfer,
either actually or by attestation, to the Company of unencumbered Shares previously acquired by the Participant, valued at the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of exercise (or next succeeding trading date, if the date of exercise is not
a trading date), together with any applicable withholding taxes, such transfer to be upon such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee, (iii) by a combination of (i) or (ii), or (iv) by any other method approved or
accepted by the Committee in its sole discretion, including, if the Committee so determines, (x) a cashless (broker-assisted) exercise that complies with applicable laws or (y) withholding Shares
(net-exercise) otherwise deliverable to the Participant pursuant to the Option having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price. Until the optionee has been issued
the Shares subject to such exercise, he or she shall possess no rights as a stockholder with respect to such Shares. 
 At the
Committee’s discretion, the amount payable to the Participant as a result of the exercise of a SAR may be settled in cash, Shares or a combination of cash and Shares. A fractional Share shall not be deliverable upon the exercise of a SAR but a
cash payment will be made in lieu thereof. 
 6.5 Termination of Employment or Service. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award
Agreement, an Option may be exercised only to the extent that it is then exercisable, and if at all times during the period beginning with the date of granting such Option and ending on the date of exercise of such Option the Participant is an
Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant, and shall terminate immediately upon a termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 6.5 to the contrary, the Committee may determine in its discretion that an Option may be exercised following any such termination of employment, whether or not exercisable at the time of such termination of employment; provided,
however, that in no event may an Option be exercised after the expiration date of such Option specified in the applicable Award Agreement, except as provided in the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 6.4.

 6.6 Ten Percent Stock Rule. Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan, if at the time an Option
is otherwise to be granted pursuant to the Plan, the optionee or rights holder owns directly or indirectly (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) Shares of the Company possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined
voting power of all classes of Stock of the Company or its parent or Subsidiary corporations (within the meaning of Section 422(b)(6) of the Code), then any Incentive Stock Option to be granted to such optionee or rights holder pursuant to the
Plan shall satisfy the requirement of Section 422(c)(5) of the Code, and the Option Price shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares of the Company, and such Option by its terms shall not be
exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date such Option is granted. 
 6.7 Buyout Provisions. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, the Committee may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash, Shares or Restricted Shares an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and communicate to the
Participant at the time that such offer is made. 
 Section 7. Restricted Shares And Restricted Share Units. 

7.1 Grant. 
 Subject to the provisions of
the Plan and other applicable legal requirements, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Participants to whom Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units shall be granted, the number of Restricted Shares and/or the
number of Restricted Share Units to be granted to each Participant, the duration of the period during which, and the conditions under which, the Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units may be forfeited to the Company, and the other terms and
conditions of such Awards. The Restricted Share and Restricted Share Unit Awards shall be evidenced by Award Agreements in such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve, which agreements shall comply with and be subject to the terms and
conditions provided hereunder and any additional terms and conditions established by the Committee that are consistent with the terms of the Plan. 

Each Restricted Share and Restricted Share Unit Award made under the Plan shall be for such number of Shares as shall be determined by the
Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement containing the terms of such Restricted Share or Restricted Share Unit Award. Such agreement shall set forth a period of time during which the grantee must remain in the continuous employment of the
Company in order for the forfeiture and transfer restrictions to lapse. If the Committee so determines, the restrictions may lapse during such restricted period in installments with respect to specified portions of the Shares covered by the
Restricted Share or Restricted Share Unit Award. The Award Agreement may also, in the discretion of the Committee, set forth performance or other conditions that will subject the Shares to forfeiture and transfer restrictions. The Committee may, at
its discretion, waive all or any part of the restrictions applicable to any or all outstanding Restricted Share and Restricted Share Unit Awards.

 7.2 Dividends and Other Distributions. 

Prior to the lapse of any applicable transfer restrictions, Participants holding Restricted Shares shall be credited with any cash dividends
paid with respect to such Restricted Shares while they are so held, unless determined otherwise by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Committee may apply any restrictions to such dividends that the Committee deems appropriate.
Except as set forth in the Award Agreement or otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event (a) of any adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, or (b) any shares or securities are received as a dividend, or an extraordinary
dividend is paid in cash, on Restricted Shares, any new or additional shares or securities or any extraordinary dividends paid in cash received by a Participant on such Restricted Shares shall be subject to the same terms and conditions, including
any transfer restrictions, as relate to the original Restricted Shares. 
 The applicable Award Agreement will specify whether a Participant
will be entitled to receive dividend equivalent rights in respect of Restricted Stock Units at the time of any payment of dividends to stockholders on Shares. If the applicable Award Agreement specifies that a Participant will be entitled to receive
dividend equivalent rights, (i) the amount of any such dividend equivalent right shall equal the amount that would be payable to the Participant as a stockholder in respect of a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units
then credited to the Participant, (ii) any such dividend equivalent right shall be paid in accordance with the Service Recipient’s payroll or payment practices as may be established from time to time and as of the date on which such
dividend would have been payable in respect of outstanding Shares, and (iii) the applicable Award Agreement will specify whether dividend equivalents shall be paid in respect of Restricted Share Units that are not yet vested. 

7.3 Transfer Restrictions on Restricted Shares. At the time of a Restricted Share Award, a certificate representing the number of Shares awarded
thereunder shall be registered in the name of the grantee. Such certificate shall be held by the Company or any custodian appointed by the Company for the account of the grantee subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, and shall bear such a
legend setting forth the restrictions imposed thereon as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide that a Participant’s ownership of Restricted
Shares prior to the lapse of any transfer restrictions or any other applicable restrictions shall, in lieu of such certificates, be evidenced by a “book entry” (i.e., a computerized or manual entry) in the records of the Company or its
designated agent in the name of the Participant who has received such Award, and confirmation and account statements sent to the Participant with respect to such book-entry Shares may bear the restrictive legend referenced in the preceding sentence.
Such records of the Company or such agent shall, absent manifest error, be binding on all Participants who receive Restricted Share Awards evidenced in such manner. The holding of Restricted Shares by the Company or such an escrow holder, or the use
of book entries to evidence the ownership of Restricted Shares, in accordance with this Section 7.3, shall not affect the rights of Participants as owners of the Restricted Shares awarded to them, nor affect the restrictions applicable to such
shares under the Award Agreement or the Plan, including the transfer restrictions.

 7.4 Other Rights of Restricted Stockholders. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award
Agreement, the grantee shall have all other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Shares, including the right to vote such Shares, subject to the following restrictions: (i) the grantee shall not be entitled to delivery of the
stock certificate until the expiration of the restricted period and the fulfillment of any other restrictive conditions set forth in the Award Agreement with respect to such Shares; (ii) none of the Shares may be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during such restricted period or until after the fulfillment of any such other restrictive conditions; and (iii) except as otherwise determined by the Committee at or after grant, all
of the Shares shall be forfeited and all rights of the grantee to such Shares shall terminate, without further obligation on the part of the Company, unless the grantee remains in the continuous employment of the Company for the entire restricted
period in relation to which such Shares were granted and unless any other restrictive conditions relating to the Restricted Share Award are met. 
 7.5
Termination of Restrictions on Restricted Shares. At the end of the restricted period and provided that any other restrictive conditions of the Restricted Share Award are met, or at such earlier time as otherwise determined by the Committee,
all restrictions set forth in the Award Agreement relating to the Restricted Share Award or in the Plan shall lapse as to the restricted Shares subject thereto, and a stock certificate for the appropriate number of Shares, free of the restrictions
and restricted stock legend, shall be delivered to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be (or, in the case of book-entry Shares, such restrictions and restricted stock legend shall be removed from the
confirmation and account statements delivered to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be, in book-entry form). 

7.6 Payment of Restricted Share Units. Each Restricted Share Unit shall have a value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share. Restricted Share Units
shall be paid in cash, Shares, other securities or other property, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, upon the lapse of the restrictions applicable thereto, or otherwise in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement. Except
as otherwise determined by the Committee at or after grant, Restricted Share Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, and all Restricted Share Units and all rights of the grantee to
such Restricted Share Units shall terminate, without further obligation on the part of the Company, unless the grantee remains in continuous employment of the Company for the entire restricted period in relation to which such Restricted Share Units
were granted and unless any other restrictive conditions relating to the Restricted Share Unit Award are met. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall have no rights of a stockholder with
respect to Restricted Share Units. 
 Section 8. Performance Awards. 

8.1 Grant. The Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Participants who shall receive a Performance Award, which shall consist
of a right that is (i) denominated in cash or Shares (including but not limited to Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units), (ii) valued, as determined by the Committee, in accordance with the achievement of such performance goals during
such performance periods as the Committee shall establish, and (iii) payable at such time and in such form as the Committee shall determine.

 8.2 Terms and Conditions. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, the
Committee shall determine the performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any Performance Award and the amount and kind of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any
Performance Award, and may amend specific provisions of the Performance Award; provided, however, that such amendment may not adversely affect existing Performance Awards made within a performance period commencing prior to implementation of the
amendment. 
 8.3 Payment of Performance Awards. Performance Awards may be paid in a lump sum or in installments following the close of the
performance period or, in accordance with the procedures established by the Committee, on a deferred basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its discretion, waive any performance goals and/or other terms and conditions relating to
a Performance Award. A Participant’s rights to any Performance Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of in any manner, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution,
and/or except as the Committee may determine at or after grant. 
 8.4 Termination of Employment or Service. Each Award Agreement shall set forth the
extent to which the Participant shall have the right to retain Performance Awards following such Participant’s termination of employment. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, shall be included in the
applicable Award Agreement, not need be uniform among all such Awards issued pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for the termination of employment. 

Section 9. Other Stock-Based Awards. 
 The Committee
shall have the authority to determine the Participants who shall receive an Other Stock-Based Award, which shall consist of any right that is (i) not an Award described in Sections 6 or 7 above and (ii) an Award of Shares or an Award
denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Shares (including, without limitation, securities convertible into Shares), as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of
the Plan. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Other Stock-Based Award. 

Section 10. Non-Employee Director Awards. 

10.1 The Board may provide that all or a portion of a Non-Employee Director’s annual retainer, meeting fees and/or
other awards or compensation as determined by the Board, be payable (either automatically or at the election of a Non-Employee Director) in the form of Non-Qualified
Stock Options, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units and/or Other Stock-Based Awards, including unrestricted Shares. The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Awards, including the terms and conditions which shall apply upon
a termination of the Non-Employee Director’s service as a member of the Board, and shall have full power and authority in its discretion to administer such Awards, subject to the terms of the Plan and
applicable law.

 10.2 Subject to applicable legal requirements, the Board may also grant Awards to Non-Employee Directors pursuant to the terms of the Plan, including any Award described in Sections 6, 7 or 9 above. 

Section 11. Provisions Applicable To Covered Officers And Performance Awards. 

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, unless the Committee determines that a Performance Award to be granted to a Covered Officer should not
qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m), Performance Awards granted to Covered Officers shall be subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 11. Accordingly, unless otherwise determined
by the Committee, if any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement relating to such an Award does not comply or is inconsistent with Section 162(m), such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to
such requirements, and no provision shall be deemed to confer upon the Committee discretion to increase the amount of compensation otherwise payable to a Covered Officer in connection with any such Award upon the attainment of the performance
criteria established by the Committee. 
 The Committee may grant Performance Awards to Covered Officers based solely upon the attainment of performance
targets related to one or more performance goals selected by the Committee from among the goals specified below. For the purposes of this Section 11, performance goals shall be limited to one or more of the following Company Group, operating
unit, business segment or division financial performance measures: 
 (a) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization;

 (b) operating income or profit; 

(c) operating efficiencies; 
 (d)
return on equity, assets, capital, capital employed or investment; 
 (e) net income; 

(f) earnings (gross, net, pre-tax, after tax or per share); 

(g) utilization; 
 (h) gross or
net profit margins; 
 (i) stock price or total stockholder return; 

(j) customer growth or sales; 

(k) debt reduction;

 (l) revenue; 

(m) market share; 
 (n) strategic
business objectives, consisting of one or more objectives based on meeting specified cost targets, business expansion goals or goals relating to acquisitions or divestitures; or 

(o) any combination thereof. 
 Each goal may be
expressed on an absolute and/or relative basis, may be based on or otherwise employ comparisons based on internal targets, the past performance of the Company or any Subsidiary, any member of the Company Group, or any operating unit, business
segment or division of any member of the Company Group and/or the past or current performance of other companies, and in the case of earnings-based measures, may use or employ comparisons relating to capital, stockholders’ equity and/or Shares
outstanding, or to assets or net assets. The Committee may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under criteria set forth in this Section 11 to exclude any of the following events that occurs during a performance period:
(i) asset write-downs, (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (iii) the effect of changes in tax law, accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) accruals for reorganization
and restructuring programs and (v) any extraordinary non-recurring items as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to stockholders for the applicable year. 
 With respect to any Covered
Officer, the maximum annual number of Shares in respect of which all Performance Awards may be granted under Section 8 of the Plan is 1,500,000 and the maximum amount of all Performance Awards that are settled in cash and that may be granted
under Section 8 of the Plan in any year is $5,000,000. 
 To the extent necessary to comply with Section 162(m), with respect to grants of
Performance Awards, no later than 90 days following the commencement of each performance period (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing, (1) select the performance
goal or goals applicable to the performance period, (2) establish the various targets and bonus amounts which may be earned for such performance period, and (3) specify the relationship between performance goals and targets and the amounts
to be earned by each Covered Officer for such performance period. Following the completion of each performance period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable performance targets have been achieved and the amounts, if any,
payable to Covered Officers for such performance period. In determining the amount earned by a Covered Officer for a given performance period, subject to any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall have the right to reduce (but not increase)
the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant in its sole discretion to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the performance period.

 Section 12. Termination Of Employment. 

The Committee shall have the full power and authority to determine the terms and conditions that shall apply to any Award upon a termination of employment
with a Service Recipient, including a termination by a Service Recipient with or without Cause, by a Participant voluntarily, or by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, and may provide such terms and conditions in the Award Agreement or in
such rules and regulations as it may prescribe. 
 Section 13. Change Of Control. 

13.1 Accelerated Vesting and Payment of Awards. The Committee may, in its discretion, either by the terms of an Award Agreement or by resolution adopted
prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, provide that in the event of a Change of Control, each Option and SAR then outstanding shall be fully exercisable regardless of the exercise schedule otherwise applicable to such Option and/or SAR, and
the Restricted Period shall lapse as to each Restricted Share and each Restricted Share Unit then outstanding. In connection with such a Change of Control, the Committee may, in its discretion, either by the terms of the Award Agreement applicable
to any Award or by resolution adopted prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control, provide that each Option, SAR, Restricted Share, Restricted Share Unit and/or Other Stock-Based Award shall, upon the occurrence of such Change of Control, be
cancelled in exchange for a payment in cash in an amount based on the fair market value of the Shares subject to the Award (less any Exercise or Grant Price) with reference to the Change of Control consideration, which amount may be zero (0) if
applicable. 
 13.2 Performance Awards. The Committee may, in its discretion, either by the terms of an Award Agreement or by resolution adopted prior
to the occurrence of a Change of Control, provide that in the event of a Change of Control, (a) any outstanding Performance Awards relating to performance periods ending prior to the Change of Control which have been earned but not paid shall
become immediately payable, (b) all then-in-progress performance periods for Performance Awards that are outstanding shall end, and either (i) all Participants
shall be deemed to have earned an award equal to the Participant’s target award opportunity for the performance period in question, or (ii) at the Committee’s discretion, the Committee shall determine the extent to which performance
criteria have been met with respect to each such Performance Awards and (c) the Company shall cause to be paid to each Participant such partial or full Performance Awards, in cash, Shares or other property as determined by the Committee, within
thirty (30) days of such Change of Control, based on the Change of Control consideration, which amount may be zero (0) if applicable. 
 13.3 No
Implied Rights; Other Limitations. No Participant shall have any right to prevent the consummation of any of the acts described in Section 4.2 or Section 13.1 affecting the number of Shares available to, or other entitlement of, such
Participant under the Plan or such Participant’s Award. Any actions or determinations of the Committee under this Section 13 need not be uniform as to all outstanding Awards, nor treat all Participants identically. Any changes to Incentive
Stock Options pursuant to this Section 13 shall, unless the Committee determines otherwise, only be effective to the extent such adjustments or changes do not cause a “modification” (within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the
Code) of such Incentive Stock Options or adversely affect the tax status of such Incentive Stock Options.

 13.4 Termination, Amendment, and Modifications of Change of Control Provisions. Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan (but subject to the limitations of Section 14.1 and Section 14.2) or any Award Agreement provision, the provisions of this Section 13 may not be terminated, amended, or modified on or after the date of
a Change of Control to materially impair any Participant’s Award theretofore granted and then outstanding under the Plan without the prior written consent of such Participant. 

Section 14. Amendment And Termination. 
 14.1
Amendments to the Plan. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without
stockholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement for which or with which the Board deems it necessary or desirable to comply. 

14.2 Amendments to Awards. Subject to the restrictions and shareholder approval requirements set forth in Section 6.2, the Committee may waive any
conditions or rights under, amend any terms of or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively; provided that any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance,
cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant or any holder or beneficiary of any Award theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant,
holder or beneficiary. 
 14.3 Adjustments of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Committee is hereby authorized
to make equitable and proportionate adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (and shall make such adjustments for events described in Section 4.2 hereof)
affecting any member of the Company Group, or the financial statements of any member of the Company Group, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles. 

14.4 Section 409A Compliance. No Award (or modification thereof) shall provide for deferral of compensation that does not comply with Section 409A
of the Code unless the Committee, at the time of grant, specifically provides that the Award is not intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if one or more of the payments or
benefits received or to be received by a Participant pursuant to an Award would cause the Participant to incur any additional tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may reform such provision to maintain to the maximum
extent practicable the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A of the Code.

 Section 15. General Provisions. 

15.1 Limited Transferability of Awards. Subject to this Section 15.1, each Award shall be exercisable only by a Participant during the
Participant’s lifetime, or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s legal guardian or representative. No Award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company and its Affiliates; provided that the
designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit Awards other than Incentive Stock Options to be transferred
by a Participant, without consideration, subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt consistent with any applicable Award Agreement to preserve the purposes of the Plan, to: 

(i) any person who is a “family member” of the Participant, as such term is used in the instructions to Form S-8 (collectively, the “Immediate Family Members”); 
 (ii) a trust solely
for the benefit of the Participant and his or her Immediate Family Members; 

(iii) a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or 
shareholders are Persons described in (i) or (ii) above; or 
 (iv) any other
transferee as may be approved by the Committee in its sole discretion or as provided in the applicable Award Agreement; (each transferee described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted
Transferee”); provided that the Participant gives the Committee advance written notice describing the terms and conditions of the proposed transfer and the Committee notifies the Participant in writing that such a transfer would comply
with the requirements of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement. 
 The terms of any Award transferred in accordance with the
immediately preceding Section shall apply to the Permitted Transferee and any reference in the Plan, or in any applicable Award Agreement, to a Participant shall be deemed to refer to the Permitted Transferee, except that (i) Permitted
Transferees shall not be entitled to transfer any Award, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, (ii) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to exercise any transferred Option unless there shall be in effect a
registration statement on an appropriate form covering the Shares to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Option if the Committee determines, consistent with any applicable Award Agreement, that such a registration statement is necessary or
appropriate, (iii) the Committee or the Company shall not be required to provide any notice to a Permitted Transferee, whether or not such notice is or would otherwise have been required to be given to the Participant under the Plan or
otherwise, and (iv) the consequences of the termination of the Participant’s employment by, or services to, the Company or an Affiliate under the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement shall continue to be applied with
respect to the Participant, including, without limitation, that an Option shall be exercisable by the Permitted Transferee only to the extent, and for the periods, specified in the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

 15.2 Dividend Equivalents. In the sole and complete discretion of the Committee, an Award may provide
the Participant with dividends or dividend equivalents, payable in cash, Shares, other securities or other property on a current or deferred basis. All dividend or dividend equivalents which are not paid currently may, at the Committee’s
discretion, accrue interest, be reinvested into additional Shares, or, in the case of dividends or dividend equivalents credited in connection with Performance Awards, be credited as additional Performance Awards and paid to the Participant if and
when, and to the extent that, payment is made pursuant to such Award. The total number of Shares available for grant under Section 4 shall not be reduced to reflect any dividends or dividend equivalents that are reinvested into additional
Shares or credited as Performance Awards. 
 15.3 No Rights to Awards. No Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award, and there is no
obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant. 

15.4 Share Certificates. All certificates for Shares or other securities of the Company or any Affiliate (or, if any such Shares or securities are in
book-entry form, such book-entry balances and confirmation and account statements with respect thereto) delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as
the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any state securities commission or regulatory authority, any stock exchange or other market upon which such Shares or other securities are
then listed, and any applicable Federal or state laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates (or confirmation and account statements for book-entry Shares) to make appropriate reference to such
restrictions. 
 15.5 Tax Withholding. A Participant may be required to pay to the Company or such Person designated by the Company, and the Company
or any Service Recipient shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from any Award, from any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan, or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount
(in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property) of any applicable withholding or other tax-related obligations in respect of an Award, its exercise or any other transaction involving an
Award, or any payment or transfer under an Award or under the Plan and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. The Committee may provide for additional
cash payments to holders of Options to defray or offset any tax arising from the grant, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award. 
 15.6 Withholding or
Tendering Shares. Without limiting the generality of Section 15.5, the Committee may in its discretion permit a Participant to satisfy or arrange to satisfy, in whole or in part, Federal, state, local or foreign tax requirements,
liabilities and obligations incident to an Award, if any, by: (a) electing to have the Company withhold Shares or other property otherwise deliverable to such Participant pursuant to his or her Award in an amount equal to or

  
 23 

  

 The Registrant has requested confidential treatment of this draft registration statement
and associated correspondence 
 pursuant to Rule 83 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

 

 
greater than the minimum applicable amount necessary to satisfy such tax requirements, liabilities and obligations (provided, however, that the amount of any Shares so withheld shall not exceed
the maximum statutory withholding amounts in the Participant’s jurisdiction) and/or (b) tendering to the Company Shares owned by such Participant (or by such Participant and his or her spouse jointly) and purchased or held for the
requisite period of time as may be required to avoid the Company’s or the Affiliates’ incurring an adverse accounting charge, based, in each case, on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the payment date as determined by the Committee.
All such elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. 

15.7 Award Agreements. Each Award hereunder shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall be delivered to the Participant and may specify the
terms and conditions of the Award and any rules applicable thereto. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Plan and any Award Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall prevail. The Committee shall, subject to applicable law, determine the
date an Award is deemed to be granted. The Committee or, except to the extent prohibited under applicable law, its delegate(s) may establish the terms of agreements or other documents evidencing Awards under this Plan and may, but need not, require
as a condition to any such agreement’s or document’s effectiveness that such agreement or document be executed by the Participant, including by electronic signature or other electronic indication of acceptance, and that such Participant
agree to such further terms and conditions as specified in such agreement or document. The grant of an Award under this Plan shall not confer any rights upon the Participant holding such Award other than such terms, and subject to such conditions,
as are specified in this Plan as being applicable to such type of Award (or to all Awards) or as are expressly set forth in the agreement or other document evidencing such Award. 

15.8 No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Affiliate from adopting or continuing
in effect other compensation arrangements, which may, but need not, provide for the grant of Options, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, Other Stock-Based Awards or other types of Awards provided for hereunder. 

15.9 No Right to Employment. The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of any member
of the Company Group or any Service Recipient. Further, a Service Recipient may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement. 

15.10 No Rights as Stockholder. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, no Participant or holder or beneficiary of any
Award shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed under the Plan until such person has become a holder of such Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with each grant of Restricted Shares
hereunder, the applicable Award Agreement shall specify if and to what extent the Participant shall not be entitled to the rights of a stockholder in respect of such Restricted Shares.

 15.11 No Guarantee of Favorable Tax Treatment. Although the Company intends to administer the Plan so
that Awards will be exempt from, or will comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the Company does not warrant that any Award under the Plan will qualify for favorable tax treatment under Section 409A of the Code or any
other provision of federal, state, local or foreign law. The Company shall not be liable to any Participant for any tax, interest, or penalties that Participant might owe as a result of the grant, holding, vesting, exercise, or payment of any Award
under the Plan. 
 15.12 Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and any
Award Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles. 
 15.13
Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award is, or becomes, or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed
applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the
Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. 

15.14 Other Laws. The Committee may refuse to issue or transfer any Shares or other consideration under an Award if, acting in its sole discretion, it
determines that the issuance or transfer of such Shares or such other consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation (including applicable non- U.S. laws or regulations) or entitle the Company to
recover the same under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, and any payment tendered to the Company by a Participant, other holder or beneficiary in connection with the exercise of such Award shall be promptly refunded to the relevant
Participant, holder or beneficiary. 
 15.15 No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust
or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and a Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an
Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate. 
 15.16 No Fractional Shares.
Awards may be granted with respect to whole or fractional Shares under the Plan, provided, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine whether cash, other securities or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional
Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. 
 15.17 Headings. Headings are
given to the sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof.

Section 83(b) of the Code or under a similar provision of law may be made unless expressly permitted by the terms of the applicable Award Agreement or by action of the Committee in writing prior to the making of such election. If a Participant,
in connection with the acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan or otherwise, is expressly permitted to make such election and the Participant makes the election, the Participant shall notify the Company of such election within ten

such duties and services for the Company as may be designated from time to time by the Board. Executive shall use his best and most diligent efforts to promote the interests of the Company and shall devote all of his business time and attention to
his employment under this Agreement; provided, however, that Executive shall be permitted to manage his personal, financial and legal affairs that may from time to time require insubstantial portions of his working time, but would not
singularly or in the aggregate interfere or be inconsistent with his duties and obligations under this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that he will be required to travel in connection with the performance of his duties. 

2. Compensation and Benefits.

designated by the Board) (the “Annual Bonus”). Such Annual Bonus, if any, shall be payable at such time as executive officer bonuses are paid generally so long as Executive remains in the employ of the Company on the payment date.

Company.

employment under this Agreement shall terminate as set forth in Section 4 hereof (the “Employment Period”). Notwithstanding such Employment Period, Executive acknowledges that his employment is for an unspecified duration that

4. Termination. 
 4.1 Termination by the
Company for Cause.

(ii) Executive’s commission of any act of dishonesty or breach of trust in connection with performance of
employment-related duties that is intended to result in the non-de minimis personal enrichment of Executive or that causes or could reasonably be expected to cause (other than immaterial) reputational or

Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2.

(c) the Company shall pay to Executive, in equal installments over the Severance Period , an amount equal to two (2) times Target Bonus,

taxes, equivalent to that portion of the health insurance premium that it would have paid for active employees with similar coverage for a period of 18 months, subject to the provisions of Sections 4.7 and 7.10; 

provided, however, that the continuation of any salary and benefits shall cease on the occurrence of any circumstance or event that would constitute Cause

Company, which notice shall detail the specific basis for such termination, and the Company shall not have cured the basis for such termination within such thirty (30) day period. 

4.6 Liquidated Damages. Executive acknowledges that the payments and benefits under this Section 4 resulting from a termination of
Executive’s employment with the Company are in lieu of any and all claims that Executive may have against the Company (other than benefits under the Company’s employee benefit plans that by their terms survive termination of employment and
benefits under the COBRA, and rights to indemnification under certain indemnification arrangements for officers of the Company), and represent liquidated damages (and not a penalty).

 4.7 Release. Executive acknowledges that he must execute and not revoke a release of
claims in a form provided by the Company within the time period provided in the release (which will end no later than the 58th day after termination of employment) in order to receive the payments
and benefits under this Section 4 resulting from Executive’s separation from service, which release of claims will be provided to Executive during a reasonable period following termination of employment and which will not impose any
obligations and covenants on Executive not already required by this Agreement. Provided that Executive complies with the foregoing sentence, the payments will begin to be processed on the 60th day
following Executive’s separation from service. 
 5. Restrictive Covenants. 

5.1 Trade Secrets and Proprietary Information. Executive acknowledges and agrees to those certain covenants set forth in the Company

(b) Executive, during his employment, shall use his best efforts to disclose to the Board and the General Counsel of the Company in writing or

effectiveness all other prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter. 
 7.3 Amendment;
Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, canceled or discharged, except by written instrument executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision. 

7.4 Binding Effect; Assignment. The rights and obligations of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of any successor of the
Company by reorganization, merger or consolidation, or any assignee of all or substantially all of the Company’s business and properties. The Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates without the consent of Executive. Executive’s rights or obligations under this Agreement may not be assigned by Executive, except that the rights specified in Section 4.2 shall pass upon Executive’s death to
Executive’s executor or administrator. 
 7.5 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only
and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 7.6 Governing Law; Forum. This Agreement shall be construed
in accordance with and governed for all purposes by the laws and public policy (other than conflict of laws principles) of the State of Tennessee applicable to contracts executed and to be wholly performed within such State. Any proceedings arising
out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in the state courts or federal courts in the state of Tennessee and the parties each hereby expressly submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

of this Agreement. 
 7.8 Severability. The parties have carefully reviewed the provisions of this Agreement and agree that they are

jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions of this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by law, remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

 7.9 Withholding Taxes. All payments hereunder shall be subject to any and all
applicable federal, state, local and foreign withholding taxes. 
 7.10 Section 409A. It is intended that
(1) each installment of the payments provided under the Agreement is a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and (2) that the payments
satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A of the Code provided under Treasury Regulations 1.409A-1(b)(4),
1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), and 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, if the Company determines (i) that on the date
Executive’s employment with the Company terminates or at such other times that the Company determines to be relevant, the Executive is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(i)) of the Company and (ii) that any payments to be provided to Executive pursuant to the Agreement are or may become subject to the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code or any
other taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A of the Code if provided at the time otherwise required under the Agreement, then such payments shall be delayed until the date that is six months after the date of Executive’s
“separation from service” (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h)) with the Company, or, if earlier, the date of Executive’s death. Any payments delayed pursuant to this
Section 7.10 shall be made in lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h)),
or, if earlier, the date of Executive’s death. In addition, to the extent that any reimbursement, fringe benefit or other, similar plan or arrangement in which Executive participates during the term of Executive’s employment under this
Agreement or thereafter provides for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, (i) the amount eligible for reimbursement or payment under such plan or arrangement in one calendar year may not
affect the amount eligible for reimbursement or payment in any other calendar year (except that a plan providing medical or health benefits may impose a generally applicable limit on the amount that may be reimbursed or paid), and (ii) subject
to any shorter time periods provided herein or the applicable plans or arrangements, any reimbursement or payment of an expense under such plan or arrangement must be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in
which the expense was incurred. 
 7.11 Attorney Fees. The Company shall pay, during the 2017 calendar year, the reasonable fees and
expenses of legal counsel for Executive (not to exceed $30,000) incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement.
