have the meanings used in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

offering, (b) Persons will be considered to be acting as a "Group" if they are
owners of a corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation,
reorganization, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar business

      constitutes a felony involving fraud, conversion, misappropriation, or
      embezzlement under the laws of the United States or any political
      subdivision thereof, which conviction has become final and
      non-appealable.

              (c)

            	
              a
      material breach by WellCare or the Corporation of any term of this
      Agreement; or

      continue to provide medical, dental and vision care and life insurance
      benefits to Executive and/or Executive's family at least equal to those

              coverage
      to the extent available under the Corporation's health insurance plans
      (and the Corporation shall reimburse the cost of any premiums for such
      coverage on an after-tax basis).  Any payment or reimbursement
      under this Section 4.3.2(c) that is taxable to Executive or any of his
      family members shall be made (subject to the provisions of such health
      care plans that may require earlier payment) by December 31 of the
      calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive or such
      family member incurred the expense.

            

    

     

    4.3.3                      Termination Due to Death or
Disability.  In the event that Executive's employment is
terminated due to Executive's death or Disability the Corporation shall pay all
Accrued Obligations to Executive or Executive’s estate in a lump sum in cash
within ten (10) days after the Termination Date.

     

    4.3.4                      Waiver and Release
Agreement.  In consideration of the severance payments and
other benefits described in clauses (b) and (c) of Section 4.3.2, to which
severance payments and benefits Executive would not otherwise be entitled, and
as a precondition to Executive becoming entitled to such severance payments and
other benefits under this Agreement, Executive agrees to execute and deliver to
the Corporation within 30 days after the applicable Termination Date a Waiver
and Release Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A without
alteration or addition other than to include the date (the "Release").  If
Executive fails to execute and deliver the Release Agreement within 30 days
after the applicable Termination Date, or if Executive revokes such Release as
provided therein, the Corporation shall have no obligation to provide any of the
severance payments and other benefits described in clauses (b) and (c) of
Section 4.3.2.  The timing of severance payments under clause (b) of
Section 4.3.2 upon Executive's execution and delivery of the Release shall be
further governed by the following provisions (the last date on which such
payments may be made, the "Severance Payment
Deadline"):

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (a)

            	
              In
      any case in which the Release (and the expiration of any revocation rights
      provided therein) could only become effective in a particular tax year of
      Executive, payments conditioned on execution of the release shall be made
      within 10 days after the Release becomes effective and such revocation
      rights have lapsed.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (b)

            	
              In
      any case in which the Release (and the expiration of any revocation rights
      provided therein) could become effective in one of two taxable years of
      Executive depending on when Executive executes and delivers the Release,
      payments conditioned on execution of the Release shall be made within 10
      days after the Release becomes effective and such revocation rights have
      lapsed, but not earlier than the first business day of the later of such
      tax years.

          4.4    Required Delay For Certain
Deferred Compensation and Section 409A.  In the event that any
compensation with respect to Executive's termination is "deferred compensation"
within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder ("Section
409A"), the stock of WellCare, the Corporation or any affiliate is
publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise, and Executive
is determined to be a "specified employee," as defined in Section
409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, payment of such compensation shall be delayed as
required by Section 409A.  Such delay shall last six (6) months from
the date of Executive's termination, except in the event of Executive's
death.  Within thirty (30) days following the end of such six-month
period, or, if earlier, Executive's death, the Corporation will make a catch-up
payment to Executive equal to the total amount of such payments that would have
been made during the six-month period but for this Section 4.4.  Such
catch-up payment shall bear simple interest at the prime rate of interest as
published by the Wall Street Journals' bank survey as of the first day of the
six month period, which such interest shall be paid with the catch-up
payment.  Wherever payments under this Agreement are to be made in
installments, each such installment shall be deemed to be a separate payment for
purposes of Section 409A.

    

     

    4.5           Additional
Payments.

     

    4.5.1                      Gross Up for Excise
Tax.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or
distribution by the Corporation or WellCare to or for the benefit of Executive
(whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional
payments required under this Section 4.5) (a "Payment") would be subject to
the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or if any interest or
penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise
tax, together with any such interest and penalties, being hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then Executive
shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an
amount such that, after payment by Executive of all taxes (including interest or
penalties imposed with respect to such taxes, but not including interest and
penalties imposed by reason of Executive's failure to file timely tax returns or
to pay taxes shown due on such returns and any interest, additions, increases or
penalties unrelated to the Excise Tax or the Gross-Up Payment), including,
without limitation, the  Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment,
Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax
imposed upon the Payment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 4.5.1, in the event the amount of Payments subject to the Excise
Tax exceeds the product (the "Parachute Payment Limit") of
2.99 and Executive's applicable "base amount" (as such term is defined for
purposes of Section 4999

    of the
Code) by less than ten percent (10%) of Executive's base salary, Executive shall
be treated as having waived such rights with respect to Payments designated by
Executive to the extent required such that the aggregate amount of Payments
subject to the Excise Tax is less than the Parachute Payment Limit; provided, however, that to the
extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, the waiver will be
performed in the order in which each dollar of value subject to a Payment
reduces the amount in excess of the Parachute Payment Limit to the greatest
extent.

     

    4.5.2                      Gross-Up
Determinations.  Subject to the provisions of
Section 4.5.3, below, all determinations required to be made under this
Section 4.5, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the
amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving
at such determination, shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm
selected by Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Corporation (the "Accounting Firm"), which shall
provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Corporation and Executive
within fifteen (15) business days of the receipt of notice from Executive that
there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the
Corporation.  All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be
borne solely by the Corporation.  Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined
pursuant to this Section 4.5, shall be paid by the Corporation to Executive
within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's
determination.  If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax
is payable by Executive, it shall furnish Executive with a written opinion that
failure to report the Excise Tax on Executive's applicable federal income tax
return would not result in the imposition of a negligence or similar
penalty.  Any good faith determination by the Accounting Firm shall be
binding upon the Corporation and Executive.  As a result of the
uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the
initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that
Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Corporation should have
been made ("Underpayment"), consistent
with the calculations required to be made hereunder.  In the event
that the Corporation exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 4.5.3,
below, and Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax,
the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has
occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Corporation to
or for the benefit of Executive.

     

    4.5.3                      Claims.  Executive
shall notify the Corporation in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue
Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Corporation of a
Gross-Up Payment.  Such notification shall be given as soon as
practicable but no later than fifteen (15) business days after Executive is
informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Corporation of the
nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be
paid.  Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of
the thirty (30)-day period following the date on which Executive gives such
notice to the Corporation (or such shorter period ending on the date that any
payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due).  If the
Corporation notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period
that it desires to contest such claim, Executive shall:  (a) give the
Corporation any information reasonably requested by the Corporation relating to
such claim, (b) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the
Corporation shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including,
without limitation, accepting

    legal
representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by
the Corporation, (c) cooperate with the Corporation in good faith in order
effectively to contest such claim, and (d) permit the Corporation to participate
in any proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that the
Corporation shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including
additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and
shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any
Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto)
imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and
expenses.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 4.5.3, the Corporation shall control all proceedings taken in
connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any
and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the
taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either
direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the
claim in any permissible manner; and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest
to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Corporation shall
determine; provided
further, however, that if the
Corporation directs Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the
Corporation shall (to the extent permitted by law) advance the amount of such
payment to Executive on an interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold
Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax
(including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to
such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance;
and provided,
further, that
any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the
taxable year of Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed
to be due is limited solely to such contested amount.  Furthermore,
the Corporation's control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect
to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be
entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the
Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

     

    4.5.4                      Refunds.  If,
after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by the Corporation pursuant
to Section 4.5.3, Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with
respect to such claim, Executive shall (subject to the Corporation's complying
with the requirements of said Section 4.5.3) promptly pay to the
Corporation the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or
credited thereon, after taxes applicable thereto).  If, after the
receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by the Corporation pursuant to
Section 4.5.3, a determination is made that Executive shall not be entitled
to any refund with respect to such claim and the Corporation does not notify
Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the
expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination, then such advance shall
be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid; and the amount of such
advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of the Gross-Up Payment
required to be paid.

     

    4.5.5                      Timing of Gross-Up
Payment.  Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section
4.5 that may require earlier payment, any Gross-Up Payment shall be paid to or
for the benefit of Employee by December 31 of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which the Excise Tax is remitted, or, if no Excise Tax is
remitted, by December 31

    of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which there is a final and
nonappealable settlement or other resolution of an audit or litigation relating
to the Excise Tax.

     

    4.6           Non-Exclusivity of
Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit
Executive's continuing or future participation in any plan, program, policy or
practice provided by the Corporation or its subsidiaries and for which Executive
may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as
Executive may have under any other contract or agreement with the Corporation or
its subsidiaries at or subsequent to the Termination Date, which shall be
payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or
agreement, except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

     

    4.7           No Set-Off or
Mitigation.  The Corporation's obligation to make the payments
provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations
hereunder shall not be affected by any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense, or other claim, right or action that the Corporation may have against
Executive or others, except to the extent of the mitigation and setoff
provisions provided for in this Agreement.  In no event shall
Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way
of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of
this Agreement and such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not Executive
obtains other employment.  The Corporation agrees to pay as incurred,
to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses that Executive
may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome
thereof) by the Corporation, Executive or others of the validity or
enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any
guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by
Executive about the amount of any payment pursuant to this Agreement), plus, in
each case, interest on any delayed payment at the applicable federal rate
provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code.

Property.  All records, designs, business plans, financial
statements, customer lists, manuals, memoranda, lists, research and development

business, activities, research and development, Intellectual Property or future
plans of a WellCare Company that is collected by the Executive shall be
delivered promptly to such WellCare Company without request by it upon
termination of Executive's employment.  For purposes of this Section
5.1.2, "Intellectual

secrets, other such rights, and any applications therefor.

     

    5.2           Inventions.  Executive
is hereby retained in a capacity such that Executive's responsibilities may

WellCare Companies.  Executive hereby assigns to the applicable
WellCare Company all rights, title and interest in such contributions and
inventions made or conceived by Executive alone or jointly with others during
the Term that relate to the business of such WellCare Company.  This
assignment shall include (a) the right to file and prosecute patent applications
on such inventions in any and all countries, (b) the patent applications filed
and patents issuing thereon, and (c) the right to obtain copyright, trademark or

WellCare Company's resources that does not relate to the business of any
WellCare Company and does not result from any work performed by Executive for
any WellCare Company.

      WellCare Group for a period in excess of six months; provided, however, that
      the provisions of this clause (b) shall not apply to any member of
      Executive's immediate family;

      Company;

            

    

     

    provided, however, that nothing
in this Section 5.3.1 shall be construed to preclude Executive from making any
investment in the securities of any business enterprise whether or not engaged
in competition with any WellCare Company, to the extent that such securities are
actively traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter
market in the United States or on any foreign securities exchange, but only if
such investment does not exceed two percent (2%) of the outstanding voting
securities of such enterprise, provided that such permitted activity shall not
relieve the Executive from any other provisions of this Agreement.

    

    5.3.2                      Reasonableness.  It
is agreed by the parties that the foregoing covenants in this Section 5.3 impose
a reasonable restraint on Executive in light of the activities and business of
the WellCare Companies on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the
current plans of the WellCare Companies.  Executive acknowledges that
the covenants in this Section 5.3 shall not prevent Executive from earning a
livelihood upon the termination of employment hereunder, but merely prevents
unfair competition with the WellCare Companies for a limited period of
time.

     

    5.3.3                      Severability.  The
covenants in this Section 5.3 are severable and separate, and the
unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any
other covenant.  In the event any court of competent jurisdiction
shall determine that the

    scope,
time or territorial restrictions set forth herein are unreasonable, then it is
the intention of the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest
extent that such court deems reasonable, and this Agreement shall thereby be
reformed.

     

    5.3.4                      Enforcement by the
Corporation not Limited.  All of the covenants in this Section
5.3 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in
this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Executive
against any WellCare Company, whether predicated in this Agreement or otherwise,
shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Corporation or WellCare
of such covenants.

     

    5.4           Breach of Restrictive
Covenants.  The parties agree that a breach or violation of
this Article 5 will result in immediate and irreparable injury and harm to the
innocent party, and that such innocent party shall have, in addition to any and
all remedies of law and other consequences under this Agreement, the right to
seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent
the violation of the obligations hereunder.

     

    ARTICLE

    ARBITRATION

     

    6.1           General.  Except
for an action for equitable relief that is permitted to be sought pursuant to
Section 5.4, any
controversy, dispute, or claim between the parties to this Agreement, including
any claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the formation,
interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement shall be settled
exclusively by arbitration, before a single arbitrator, in accordance with this
Article 6 and the then most applicable rules of the American Arbitration
Association.  Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may
be entered by any state or federal court having jurisdiction
thereof.  Such arbitration shall be administered by the American
Arbitration Association. Arbitration shall be the exclusive remedy for
determining any such dispute, regardless of its
nature.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may in an
appropriate matter apply to a court for provisional relief, including a
temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, on the ground that the
award to which the applicant may be entitled in arbitration may be rendered
ineffectual without provisional relief.  Unless mutually agreed by the
parties otherwise, any arbitration shall take place in Tampa,
Florida.

     

    6.2           Selection of
Arbitrator.  In the event the parties are unable to agree upon
an arbitrator, the parties shall select a single arbitrator from a list of nine
arbitrators drawn by the parties at random from the "Independent" (or "Gold
Card") list of retired judges or, at the option of Executive, from a list of
nine persons (which shall be retired judges or corporate or litigation attorneys
experienced in executive employment agreements) provided by the office of the
American Arbitration Association having jurisdiction over Tampa,
Florida.  If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator from
the list so drawn, then the parties shall each strike names alternately from the
list, with the first to strike being determined by lot.  After each
party has used four strikes, the remaining name on the list shall be the
arbitrator.  If such person is unable to serve for any reason, the
parties shall repeat this process until an arbitrator is selected.

    6.3           Applicability of
Arbitration; Remedial Authority.  This agreement to resolve any
disputes by binding arbitration shall extend to claims against any parent,
subsidiary or affiliate of each party, and, when acting within such capacity,
any officer, director, stockholder, employee or agent of each party, or of any
of the above, and shall apply as well to claims arising out of state and federal
statutes and local ordinances as well as to claims arising under the common
law.  In the event of a dispute subject to this paragraph the parties
shall be entitled to reasonable discovery subject to the discretion of the
arbitrator.  The remedial authority of the arbitrator (which shall
include the right to grant injunctive or other equitable relief) shall be the
same as, but no greater than, would be the remedial power of a court having
jurisdiction over the parties and their dispute.  The arbitrator
shall, upon an appropriate motion, dismiss any claim without an evidentiary
hearing if the party bringing the motion establishes that he or it would be
entitled to summary judgment if the matter had been pursued in court
litigation.  In the event of a conflict between the applicable rules
of the American Arbitration Association and these procedures, the provisions of
these procedures shall govern.

     

    6.4           Fees and
Costs.  Any filing or administrative fees shall be borne
initially by the party requesting arbitration.  The Corporation shall
be responsible for the costs and fees of the
arbitration.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prevailing party in
such arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator, and in any enforcement or
other court proceedings, shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to
reimbursement from the other party for all of the prevailing party's costs
(including but not limited to the arbitrator's compensation), expenses, and
attorneys' fees.

     

    6.5           Award Final and
Binding.  The arbitrator shall render an award and written
opinion, and the award shall be final and binding upon the
parties.  If any of the provisions of this paragraph, or of this
Agreement, are determined to be unlawful or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or
in part, such determination shall not affect the validity of the remainder of
this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be reformed to the extent necessary to
carry out its provisions to the greatest extent possible and to insure that the
resolution of all conflicts between the parties, including those arising out of
statutory claims, shall be resolved by neutral, binding
arbitration.  If a court should find that the arbitration provisions
of this Agreement are not absolutely binding, then the parties intend any
arbitration decision and award to be fully admissible in evidence in any
subsequent action, given great weight by any finder of fact, and treated as
determinative to the maximum extent permitted by law.

    MISCELLANEOUS

     

    7.1           Amendments.  The
provisions of this Agreement may not be waived, altered, amended or repealed in
whole or in part except by the signed written consent of the parties sought to
be bound by such waiver, alteration, amendment or repeal.

     

    7.2           Entire
Agreement.  This Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement, and
any agreements pertaining to the Restricted Stock and the Option constitute the
total and complete agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and thereof and

    supersede
all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements heretofore made, and
there are no other representations, understandings or agreements.

     

    7.3           Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed in one of more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed and original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same
instrument.

     

    7.4           Severability.  Each
term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement shall be viewed as
separate and distinct, and in the event that any such term, covenant, condition
or provision shall be deemed by an arbitrator or a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the court or arbitrator finding
such invalidity or unenforceability shall modify or reform this Agreement to
give as much effect as possible to the terms and provisions of this
Agreement.  Any term or provision which cannot be so modified or
reformed shall be deleted and the remaining terms and provisions shall continue
in full force and effect.

     

    7.5           Waiver or
Delay.  The failure or delay on the part of the Corporation or
Executive to exercise any right or remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall
not operate as a waiver thereof.  A waiver, to be effective, must be
in writing and signed by the party making the waiver.  A written
waiver of default shall not operate as a waiver of any other default or of the
same type of default on a future occasion.

     

    7.6           Successors and
Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to
the benefit of the parties to it and their respective heirs, legal
representatives, successors and assigns, except as otherwise provided
herein.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, benefits,
obligations or duties hereunder may be assigned or transferred by Executive
except by operation of law.  Without the prior written consent of
Executive, this Agreement shall not be assigned by the
Corporation.  The Corporation will require any successor (whether
direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation to assume
expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such succession
had taken place.

     

    7.7           Necessary
Acts.  Each party to this Agreement shall perform any further
acts and execute and deliver any additional agreements, assignments or documents
that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions or to effectuate
the purpose of this Agreement.

     

    7.8           Governing Law. This
Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted, construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

     

    7.9           Notices.  All
notices, requests, demands and other communications to be given under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given on the

    EXHIBIT
A

    

    WAIVER
AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

    

               THIS
WAIVER AND RELEASE AGREEMENT (this "Release") is entered into as
of [TO BE DETERMINED AT TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT] (the "Effective Date"), by Thomas F.
O’Neil III (the "Executive") in consideration
of severance pay and benefits (the "Severance Payment") provided
to the Executive by Comprehensive Health Management, Inc., a Florida corporation
(the "Corporation"),
pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) of Section 4.3.2 of the Employment Agreement by
and between the Corporation and the Executive (the "Employment
Agreement").

     

    

    1.           Waiver
and Release.  Subject to the
last sentence of the first paragraph of this Section 1, the Executive, on his
own behalf and on behalf of his heirs, executors, administrators, attorneys and
assigns, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably releases, waives and forever
discharges the Corporation and each of its affiliates, parents, successors,
predecessors, and the subsidiaries, directors, owners, members, shareholders,
officers, agents, and employees of the Corporation and its affiliates, parents,
successors, predecessors, and subsidiaries (collectively, all of the foregoing
are referred to as the "Employer"), from any and all
causes of action, claims and damages, including attorneys' fees, whether known
or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, presently asserted or otherwise arising
through the date of his signing of this Release, concerning his employment or
separation from employment.  Subject to the last sentence of the first
paragraph of this Section 1, this Release includes, but is not limited to, any
payments, benefits or damages arising under any federal law (including, but not
limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the
Americans with Disabilities Act, Executive Order 11246, the Family and Medical
Leave Act, and the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, each as
amended); any claim arising under any state or local laws, ordinances or
regulations (including, but not limited to, any state or local laws, ordinances
or regulations requiring that advance notice be given of certain workforce
reductions); and any claim arising under any common law principle or public
policy, including, but not limited to, all suits in tort or contract, such as
wrongful termination, defamation, emotional distress, invasion of privacy or
loss of consortium. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Release to
the contrary, this Release does not encompass, and Executive does not release,
waive or discharge, the obligations of WellCare and/or the Corporation (a) to
make the payments and provide the other benefits contemplated by the Employment
Agreement, or (b) under any restricted stock agreement, option agreement or
other agreement pertaining to Executive's equity ownership, or (c) under any
indemnification or similar agreement with Executive.

    

               The
Executive understands that by signing this Release, he is not waiving any claims
or administrative charges which cannot be waived by law.  He is
waiving, however, any right to monetary recovery or individual relief should any
federal, state or local agency (including the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission) pursue

    any claim
on his behalf arising out of or related to his employment with and/or separation
from employment with the Corporation.

    

               The
Executive further agrees without any reservation whatsoever, never to sue the
Employer or become a party to a lawsuit on the basis of any and all claims of
any type lawfully and validly released in this Release.

    

    2.           Acknowledgments.  The Executive is
signing this Release knowingly and voluntarily.  He acknowledges
that:

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (a)

            	
              He
      is hereby advised in writing to consult an attorney before signing this
      Release Agreement;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (b)

            	
              He
      has relied solely on his own judgment and/or that of
      his  attorney regarding the consideration for and the terms of
      this Release and is signing this Release Agreement knowingly and
      voluntarily of his own free will;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (c)

            	
              He
      is not entitled to the Severance Payment unless he agrees to and honors
      the terms of this Release;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (d)

            	
              He
      has been given at least twenty-one (21) calendar days to consider this
      Release, or he or she expressly waives his right to have at least
      twenty-one (21) days to consider
      this Release;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (e)

            	
              He
      may revoke this Release within seven (7) calendar days after signing it by
      submitting a written notice of revocation to the Employer.  He
      further understands that this Release is not effective or enforceable
      until after the seven (7) day period of revocation has expired without
      revocation, and that if he or she revokes this Release within the seven
      (7) day revocation period, he will not receive the Severance
      Payment;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (f)

            	
              He
      has read and understands the Release and further understands that, subject
      to the limitations contained herein, it includes a general release of any
      and all known and unknown, foreseen or unforeseen claims presently
      asserted or otherwise arising through the date of his signing of this
      Release that he may have against the Employer;
  and

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	 	
              (g)

            	
              No
      statements made or conduct by the Employer has in any way coerced or
      unduly influenced him or her to execute this
  Release.

            

    

    

    3.           No
Admission of Liability.  This Release does
not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing on the part of the
Employer, the Employer does not

    

    
      
        
           

        

        
          - 21
-

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    

    admit
there has been any wrongdoing whatsoever against the Executive, and the Employer
expressly denies that any wrongdoing has occurred.

    

    4.           Entire
Agreement.  There are no
other agreements of any nature between the Employer and the Executive with
respect to the matters discussed in this Release Agreement, except as expressly
stated herein, and in signing this Release, the Executive is not relying on any
agreements or representations, except those expressly contained in this
Release.

    

    5.           Execution.  It is not
necessary that the Employer sign this Release following the Executive's full and
complete execution of it for it to become fully effective and
enforceable.

    

    6.           Severability.  If any provision

      THOMAS
F.
O’NEIL
III

       

       

      This RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
(the “Agreement”)
is made and entered into effective as of April 1, 2008, by and between WellCare
Health Plans, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and Thomas F. O’Neil III (the “Grantee”).

       

      RECITALS

       

      In consideration of services to be
rendered by the Grantee and to provide an incentive to the Grantee to remain
with the Company and its Subsidiaries, it is in the best interests of the
Company to make a grant of Restricted Stock to Grantee in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.

       

      NOW, THEREFORE, for and in
consideration of the mutual premises, covenants and agreements contained herein,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound,
hereby agree as follows:

       

      1.           Award of Restricted
Stock.  The Company hereby grants, as of April 1, 2008, the
Grantee’s first day of employment (the “Date of
Grant”), to the Grantee, 50,000 restricted shares of Common Stock
(collectively, the “Restricted
Stock”), which Restricted Stock is and shall be subject to the terms,
provisions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement.  The purchase
price per share of Restricted Stock is $.01 per share (the par value of a
share of Common Stock), which shall be deemed paid by your services to the
Company.  The Restricted Stock is being granted as an “employee
inducement award” within the meaning of Section 303A(8) of the New York Stock
Exchange Listed Company Manual.   As a
condition to entering into this Agreement, and as a condition to the issuance of
the Restricted Stock, the Grantee agrees to be bound by all of the terms and
conditions herein.

       

      2.           Vesting of Restricted
Stock.

       

      (a)            Except
as otherwise provided in Section 3 hereof, the Restricted Stock shall
become vested in equal annual installments on each of April, 2009, 2010, 2011
and 2012 (each such date being a “Vesting
Date”), provided that the Grantee’s employment or service with the
Company and its Subsidiaries continues through and on the applicable Vesting
Date.

       

      (b)            Except
as otherwise provided in Section 3 hereof, there shall be no proportionate
or partial vesting of Restricted Stock in or during the months, days or periods
prior to each Vesting Date, and all vesting of Restricted Stock shall occur only
on the applicable Vesting Date.

       

      3.           Termination of
Employment

       

      (a)             Upon
the termination or cessation of Grantee’s employment with the Company and its
Subsidiaries (the “Date of
Termination”), for any reason whatsoever, any portion of the

       

      
        
           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      Restricted
Stock which is not yet then vested, and which does not then become vested
pursuant to this Section 3, shall automatically and without notice terminate, be
forfeited and become null and void.

       

      (b)             Notwithstanding
Section 3(a), if the Grantee ceases to be a director, officer or employee of, or
to perform other services for, the Company and any Subsidiary, and the Grantee’s
employment was terminated (i) by the Company without Cause or (ii) by the
Grantee for Good Reason, within twelve months after there is a Change in Control
of the Company, then, in each case, the unvested Restricted Stock shall become
immediately vested as of the Date of Termination.

       

      (c)            
Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, in the event that
the Grantee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated on
account of the Grantee’s death or Disability any unvested portion of the
Restricted Stock shall become immediately vested as of the Date of the
Termination.

       

      (d)            Notwithstanding
any other term or provision of this Agreement, the Committee shall be
authorized, in its sole discretion, based upon its review and evaluation of the
performance of the Grantee and of the Company and its Subsidiaries, to
accelerate the vesting of all or any portion of the Restricted Stock under this
Agreement, at such times and upon such terms and conditions as the Committee
shall deem advisable.

       

      4.           Delivery of Restricted
Stock.  The Company shall make a book entry in its stock ledger
for the Restricted Stock registered in the Grantee’s name.  Upon
vesting, certificates for the Restricted Stock will be issued in the name of the
Grantee and shall be delivered to the Grantee’s address on record with the
Company or to such other address as the Grantee may instruct the
Company.  The Company shall retain the right to determine if any stock
certificates issued under the Plan or under this Agreement shall bear a
restrictive legend.

       

      5.           Rights with Respect to
Restricted Stock.

       

       

      (a)            Except

(i) the right to vote such Restricted Stock, (ii) the right to receive
dividends, if any, as may be declared on the Restricted Stock from time to time,
and (iii) the rights available to all holders of shares of Common Stock
upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or dissolution,
stock split-up, stock dividend or recapitalization undertaken by the
Company.

       

      (b)            In
the event that the Committee shall determine that any stock dividend, stock
split, share combination, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange
of shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase Common Stock at a price
substantially below fair market value, or other similar corporate event affects
the Common Stock such that an adjustment is required in the number of shares of
Restricted Stock in order to preserve, or to prevent the enlargement of, the
benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Award,
then the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, and in such manner as the
Committee may deem equitable, adjust any or all of

      the
number and kind of shares of Restricted Stock and/or, if deemed appropriate,
make provision for a cash payment to the Grantee, provided, however, that,
unless the Committee determines otherwise, the number of shares of Restricted
Stock subject to this Award shall always be a whole number.

       

      (c)            Notwithstanding
any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the existence of this
Agreement, or of any outstanding Restricted Stock awarded hereunder, shall not
affect in any manner the right, power or authority of the Company to make,
authorize or consummate: (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalizations,
reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its
business; (ii) any merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar
transaction by or of the Company; (iii) any offer, issue or sale by the
Company of any capital stock of the Company, including any equity or debt
securities, or preferred or preference stock that would rank prior to or on
parity with the Restricted Stock and/or that would include, have or possess
other rights, benefits and/or preferences superior to those that the Restricted
Stock includes, has or possesses, or any warrants, options or rights with
respect to any of the foregoing; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company; (v) any sale, transfer or assignment of all or any part of the
stock, assets or business of the Company; or (vi) any other corporate
transaction, act or proceeding (whether of a similar character or
otherwise).

statutory minimum of all or part of the Grantee’s estimated total federal, state
and local tax obligations associated with the award or vesting of the Restricted
Stock; provided,

depositing with the Company an amount of cash equal to the amount determined by
the Company to be required with respect to any withholding taxes, FICA
contributions or the like under federal, state or local statute, ordinance rule
or regulation in connection with the award or vesting of the Restricted
Stock.  Alternatively, the Company may, in its sole discretion and to
the extent permitted by law, deduct from any payment of any kind otherwise due
to the Grantee any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to
be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.

          - 5

      any
applicable state securities laws and regulations and that such shares of
Restricted Stock cannot be transferred or sold unless subsequently registered
under the 1933 Act, unless an exemption from such registration is available, and
any applicable state securities laws and regulations.  The Grantee

      12.           Miscellaneous.

       

      (a)            No Right to Continued

Restricted Stock hereunder shall not confer, or be construed to confer, upon the
Grantee any right to employment or service, or continued employment or service,
with the Company or any Subsidiary.

       

      (b)            No Limit on Other

plans, agreements and arrangements may be either generally applicable or
applicable only in specific cases or to specific persons.

       

      (c)            Severability.  If
any term or provision of this Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or under any applicable
law, rule or regulation, then such provision shall be construed or deemed
amended to conform to applicable law (or if such provision cannot be so
construed or deemed amended without materially altering the purpose or intent of
this Agreement and the grant of Restricted Stock hereunder, such provision shall
be stricken as to such jurisdiction and the remainder of this Agreement and the

of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary
and the Grantee or any other person.  To the extent that the Grantee
or any other person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any
Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement, such right shall be no greater than the
right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

       

      (e)            Electronic Delivery and
Signatures.  Grantee
hereby consents and agrees to electronic delivery of any proxy materials, annual
reports and other related documents.  If the Company establishes

documents, Grantee hereby consents to such procedures and agrees that his or her
electronic signature is the same as, and shall have the same force and effect
as, his or her manual signature.  Grantee consents and agrees that any

Company to provide administrative services related to the Restricted
Stock.

Breach.  The waiver by any party hereto of the other party’s
prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or
provision of this Agreement shall be effected solely in a writing signed by such
party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or
remedy which he or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the
waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of
such right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach
or violation.
