	1.	Purpose. 

 The purpose of this Plan is to strengthen Community Health Systems, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and its Subsidiaries by providing an incentive to its and their employees, officers, consultants and directors and thereby encouraging them to devote their abilities and industry to the success of the
Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ business enterprises. It is intended that this purpose be achieved by extending to employees (including future employees who have received a formal written offer of employment), officers, consultants and
directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries an added long-term incentive for high levels of performance and unusual efforts through the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Non-qualified Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Performance Units,
Performance Shares, Share Awards, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units (as each term is herein defined).

2.5       “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 

2.6       “Cause” means, except as otherwise set forth herein, 

(a)      in the case of an Optionee or Grantee whose employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is
subject to the terms of an employment agreement between such Optionee or Grantee and the Company or Subsidiary, which employment agreement includes a definition of “Cause”, the term “Cause” as used in this Plan or any Agreement

transaction is adverse to the interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and which is engaged in for personal profit or (iv) willful violation of any law, rule or regulation in connection with the performance of duties (other than
traffic violations or similar offenses); provided, however, that following a Change in Control clause (i) of this Section 2.6(b) shall not constitute “Cause.” 

2.7       “Change in Capitalization” means any increase or reduction in the number of
Shares, or any change (including, but not limited to, in the case of a spin-off, dividend or other distribution in respect of Shares, a change in value) in the Shares or exchange of Shares for a different number or kind of shares or other securities

2.8       A “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following, unless
otherwise determined by the Committee in the applicable Agreement or other written agreement approved by the Committee: 

(a)      An acquisition (other than directly from the Company) of any voting securities of the Company
(the “Voting Securities”) by any “Person” (as the term person is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act), immediately after which such Person has “Beneficial Ownership” (within the meaning
of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of more than fifty percent (50%) of the then outstanding Shares or the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding Voting Securities; provided, however, that in
determining whether a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to this Section 2.8(a), Shares or Voting Securities which are acquired in a “Non-Control Acquisition” (as hereinafter defined) shall not constitute an acquisition which
would cause a Change in Control. A “Non-Control Acquisition” shall mean an acquisition by (i) an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a part thereof) maintained by (A) the Company or (B) any corporation or other Person
the majority of the voting power, voting equity securities or equity interest of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (for purposes of this definition, a “Related Entity”), (ii) the Company or any Related Entity, or
(iii) any Person in connection with a “Non-Control Transaction” (as hereinafter defined); 

(b)      The individuals who, as of March 20, 2013, are members of the Board (the “Incumbent
Board”), cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board or, following a Merger (as hereinafter defined) which results in a Parent Corporation (as hereinafter defined), the board of directors of the ultimate
Parent Corporation; provided, however, that if the election, or nomination for election by the Company’s common stockholders, of any new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent Board, such new director shall, for
purposes of this Plan, be considered a member of the Incumbent Board; provided further, however, that no individual shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board if such individual initially assumed office as a result of the actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board (a “Proxy Contest”) including by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle any Proxy Contest; or 

  
 2 

 (c)      The consummation of: 

(i)     A merger, consolidation or reorganization with or into the Company or in which
securities of the Company are issued (a “Merger”), unless such Merger is a “Non-Control Transaction.” A “Non-Control Transaction” shall mean a Merger where: 

(A)      the stockholders of the Company immediately before such Merger own directly or indirectly
immediately following such Merger at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of (x) the corporation resulting from such Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), if fifty percent
(50%) or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Surviving Corporation is not Beneficially Owned, directly or indirectly, by another Person (a “Parent Corporation”), or (y) if there is
one or more than one Parent Corporation, the ultimate Parent Corporation; and 
 (B)      the
individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board immediately prior to the execution of the agreement providing for such Merger constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of (x) the Surviving Corporation, if there
is no Parent Corporation, or (y) if there is one or more than one Parent Corporation, the ultimate Parent Corporation; 

(ii)    A complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or 

(iii)   The sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any
Person (other than a transfer to a Related Entity or under conditions that would constitute a Non-Control Transaction with the disposition of assets being regarded as a Merger for this purpose or the distribution to the Company’s stockholders
of the stock of a Related Entity or any other assets). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to
occur solely because any Person (the “Subject Person”) acquired Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the then outstanding Shares or Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by the
Company which, by reducing the number of Shares or Voting Securities then outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject Persons, provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of
this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by the Company, and after such share acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Shares or Voting Securities which
increases the percentage of the then outstanding Shares or Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur. 

If an Optionee’s or Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause prior to the date of a Change in Control
but the Optionee or Grantee reasonably demonstrates that the termination (A) was at the request of a third party who has indicated an intention or taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a change in control or (B) otherwise arose in
connection with, or in anticipation of, a Change in Control which has been threatened or proposed, such termination shall be deemed to have occurred after a Change in Control for purposes of this Plan provided a Change in Control shall actually have
occurred.

Agreement shall have the meaning set forth in such employment agreement during the period that such employment agreement remains in effect; 

(b)      in the case of an Optionee or Grantee to whom Section 2.13(a) does not apply and who

above, the Fair Market Value shall be the value established by the Board in good faith and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, in accordance with Section 422 of the Code.

or responsibilities as in effect immediately prior thereto; the assignment to the Optionee or Grantee of any duties or responsibilities which, in the Optionee’s or Grantee’s reasonable judgment, are inconsistent with the Optionee’s or
Grantee’s status, title, position or responsibilities; or any removal of the Optionee or Grantee from or failure to reappoint or reelect the Optionee or Grantee to any of such offices or positions, except in connection with the termination of

substantially identical compensation or benefits to the Optionee or Grantee or (B) provide the Optionee or Grantee with compensation and benefits, in the aggregate, at least equal (in terms of benefit levels and/or reward opportunities) to

 5 

 
demonstrates was at the request of a third party who has indicated an intention or has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control, shall constitute Good Reason for purposes

Plan and the number of such Options to be granted, prescribe the terms and conditions (which need not be identical) of each such Option, including the exercise price per Share, the vesting schedule and the duration of each Option, and make any
amendment or modification to any Option Agreement consistent with the terms of the Plan; 

(b)      select those Eligible Individuals to whom Awards shall be granted under the Plan, determine the
number of Shares in respect of which each Award is granted, the terms and conditions (which need not be identical) of each such Award, and make any amendment or modification to any Award Agreement consistent with the terms of the Plan;

 8 

 3.4    The Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the
Company the authority to grant Options or Awards to Eligible Individuals (other than to himself or herself) and/or determine the number of Shares subject to each Option or Award (by resolution that specifies the total number of Shares subject to the
Options or Awards that may be awarded by the officer and the terms of any such Options or Awards, including the exercise price), provided that such delegation is made in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law and with respect to
Options and Awards that are not intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation and that are not made to executive officers of the Company covered by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. 

 

	4.	Shares Subject to the Plan; Grant Limitations. 

 4.1    Shares
Subject to the Plan. The maximum number of Shares that may be made the subject of Options and Awards granted under the Plan is: 

(a)      4,000,000 Shares added to the Plan as a result of the amendment and restatement dated
March 19, 2014; and 
 (b)      8,506,6151
Shares in the Plan, as amended and restated March 20, 2013; 
 (c)      for a total of 12,506,615
Shares. 
 The Company shall reserve for the purposes of the Plan, out of its authorized but unissued Shares or out of Shares held in
the Company’s treasury, or partly out of each, such number of Shares as shall be determined by the Board. Following the approval by the holders of a majority of the securities of the Company entitled to vote thereon, in accordance with the
applicable laws, of the modifications to the Plan approved by the Board on March 20, 2013, no further grants may be made under the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan, but Options and Awards made under the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan shall
remain outstanding in accordance with their terms. 
 4.2    Shares Returned to the Plan. Whenever any
outstanding Option or Award or portion thereof granted pursuant to the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan and outstanding as of March 20, 2013 would have again been available for grant as an Option or Award pursuant to Section 4.3 of the
2000 Stock Option and Award Plan as in effect on March 20, 2013, the number of Shares allocable to the expired, canceled, forfeited, settled or otherwise terminated portion of such Option or Award, determined in accordance with Section 4.3
of the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan, shall be added to the maximum number of Shares available to be granted as Options or Awards granted hereunder, not to exceed 4,803,545 additional Shares 

4.3    Grant Limitations. The following grant limitations shall apply when making Awards pursuant to the
Plan: 
 (a)      When aggregated with Options and Awards granted under the 2000 Stock Option and Award
Plan in any calendar year, no Eligible Individual (other than a Director) may be granted Options in respect of more than 1,000,000 Shares, or Options or Awards in the aggregate in respect of more than 1,000,000 Shares, 

 
  

	1 	Section 4.1(c) of the Plan, as amended and restated on March 20, 2013, stated that 808,799 shares, representing the Shares remaining for issuance under the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended and
restated on March 20, 2013, were being made available for grants under the Plan. The correct number of such shares was subsequently determined to be 806,615. Section 4.1(b) above reflects the correct amount. 

  
 9 

 (b)      When aggregated with Options and Awards granted
under the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan in any calendar year, no Director may be granted Options in respect of more than 100,000 Shares, or Options or Awards in the aggregate in respect of more than 100,000 Shares, 

(c)      The maximum grant date fair value of all Awards granted during any calendar year to a single
Director who is not also an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary shall not exceed $1,000,000, and 

(d)      In no event shall more than an aggregate of 30,000 Shares be issued upon the exercise of
Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan. 
 4.4    Fungible Plan Design. Upon the granting of an
Option or an Award, the number of Shares available under Section 4.1 for the granting of further Options and Awards shall be reduced as follows: 

(a)      In connection with the granting of an Option or an Award, the number of Shares shall be reduced
by the number of Shares in respect of which the Option or Award is granted or denominated. 

(b)      Stock Appreciation Rights to be settled in shares of Common Stock shall be counted in full
against the number of shares available for award under the Plan, regardless of the number of Exercise Gain Shares issued upon settlement of the Stock Appreciation Right. 

(c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards granted in the form of Restricted Stock (including
Restricted Stock Units), Performance Awards (including Shares issued in respect to Performance Awards), and other Awards that are granted as “full value awards” shall reduce the number of shares that may be the subject to Options and
Awards under the Plan by 1.52 Shares for each Share subject to such an Award. 
 4.5    Whenever any outstanding
Option or Award or portion thereof expires, is canceled, is forfeited, or is otherwise terminated for any reason without having been exercised or payment having been made in respect of the Option or Award (or such portion thereof to which the
expiration, forfeiture, or other termination occurs), the Shares allocable to the expired, canceled, forfeited, or otherwise terminated portion of the Option or Award may again be the subject of Options or Awards granted hereunder. With regard to
Awards referred to in Section 4.4(c), for each Share subject to an Award that is cancelled, forfeited, settled in cash or other otherwise terminated as provided in the foregoing sentence, 1.52 Shares may again be the subject of Options or
Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following events shall not result in any increase in Shares available for issuance of Options or Awards under the Plan or such Shares again becoming available for issuance of Options
or Awards: 
 (a)      Withholding of Shares to pay Taxes on any Option or Award, 

(b)      Tendering of Shares to pay for Option exercise prices (i.e., net settlement of Shares), and 

  
 10 

 (c)      The purchase of Shares on the open market as a
result of Option exercises. 
 4.6    Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in no event shall an Option or
Award not subject to performance-based conditions have a vesting schedule resulting in such Option or Award vesting in full prior to the third anniversary of the grant date. For purposes of clarity, this restriction will not prohibit any Option or
Award from having partial vesting dates prior to the third anniversary of the grant date in accordance with a proportionate vesting schedule determined at the discretion of the Committee, so long as such Option or Award does not vest in full prior
to the third anniversary of the grant date. 
  

	5.	Option Grants for Eligible Individuals. 

 5.1    Authority of
Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have full and final authority to select those Eligible Individuals who will receive Options, and the terms and conditions of the grant to such Eligible Individuals shall be
set forth in an Agreement. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Eligible Individuals who are employees of the Company or any Subsidiary. 

5.2    Exercise Price. The purchase price or the manner in which the exercise price is to be determined for
Shares under each Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement; provided, however, that the exercise price per Share under each Non-qualified Stock Option and each Incentive Stock Option shall not be less
than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (110% in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten-Percent Stockholder). 

5.3    Maximum Duration. Options granted hereunder shall be for such term as the Committee shall determine,
provided that an Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted (five (5) years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten-Percent Stockholder) and a
Non-qualified Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted; provided, however, that unless the Committee provides otherwise, an Option (other than an Incentive Stock Option) may, upon
the death of the Optionee prior to the expiration of the Option, be exercised for up to one (1) year following the date of the Optionee’s death even if such period extends beyond ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted. The
Committee may, subsequent to the granting of any Option, extend the term thereof, but in no event shall the term as so extended exceed the maximum term provided for in the preceding sentence. 

5.4    Vesting. Subject to Section 5.10, each Option shall become exercisable in such installments
(which need not be equal) and at such times as may be designated by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement. To the extent not exercised, installments shall accumulate and be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time after becoming
exercisable, but not later than the date the Option expires. The Committee may accelerate the exercisability of any Option or portion thereof at any time. 

5.5    Deferred Delivery of Option Shares. The Committee may, in its discretion, permit Optionees to elect to
defer the issuance of Shares upon the exercise of one or more Non-qualified Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan. The terms and conditions of such deferral shall be determined at the time of the grant of the Option or thereafter and shall be
set forth in the Agreement evidencing the Option. 

  
 11 

 5.6    Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. To the extent
that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of the grant) of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code)
granted under all other plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries (in either case determined without regard to this Section 5.6) are exercisable by an Optionee for the first time during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, such Incentive Stock
Options shall be treated as Non-qualified Stock Options. In applying the limitation in the preceding sentence in the case of multiple Option grants, Options which were intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be treated as Non-qualified Stock
Options according to the order in which they were granted such that the most recently granted Options are first treated as Non-qualified Stock Options. 

5.7    Non-Transferability. No Option shall be transferable by the Optionee otherwise than by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution or, in the case of an Option other than an Incentive Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic relations order (within the meaning of Rule 16a-12 promulgated under the Exchange Act), and an Option shall be exercisable
during the lifetime of such Optionee only by the Optionee or his or her guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may set forth in the Agreement evidencing an Option (other than an Incentive Stock Option), at the
time of grant or thereafter, that the Option may be transferred to members of the Optionee’s immediate family, to trusts solely for the benefit of such immediate family members and to partnerships in which such family members and/or trusts are
the only partners, and for purposes of this Plan, a transferee of an Option shall be deemed to be the Optionee. For this purpose, immediate family means the Optionee’s spouse, parents, children, stepchildren and grandchildren and the spouses of
such parents, children, stepchildren and grandchildren. The terms of an Option shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the beneficiaries, executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Optionee. 

5.8    Method of Exercise. The exercise of an Option shall be made only by a written notice delivered in
person or by mail to the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s principal executive office, specifying the number of Shares to be exercised and, to the extent applicable, accompanied by payment therefor and otherwise in accordance with the
Agreement pursuant to which the Option was granted; provided, however, that Options may not be exercised by an Optionee following a hardship distribution to the Optionee to the extent such exercise is prohibited under the Community Health
Systems, Inc. 401(k) Plan. The exercise price for any Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be paid in either of the following forms (or any combination thereof): (a) cash or (b) the transfer, either actually or by
attestation, to the Company of Shares owned by the Optionee prior to the exercise of the Option, such transfer to be upon such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee or (c) a combination of cash and the transfer of Shares;
provided, however, that the Committee may determine that the exercise price shall be paid only in cash. In addition, Options may be exercised through a registered broker-dealer pursuant to such cashless exercise procedures which are, from
time to time, deemed acceptable by the Committee. Any Shares transferred to the Company as payment of the exercise price under an Option shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the day of exercise of such Option. If requested by the Committee,
the Optionee shall deliver the Agreement evidencing the Option to the Secretary of the Company who shall endorse thereon a notation of such exercise and return such Agreement to the Optionee. No fractional Shares (or cash in lieu thereof) shall be
issued upon exercise of an Option and the number of Shares that may be purchased upon exercise shall be rounded to the nearest number of whole Shares. 

  
 12 

 5.9    Rights of Optionees. No Optionee shall be deemed for any
purpose to be the owner of any Shares subject to any Option unless and until (a) the Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms thereof, (b) the Company shall have issued and delivered Shares to the Optionee, and (c) the
Optionee’s name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such Shares, subject to such terms and
conditions as may be set forth in the applicable Agreement. 
 5.10   Effect of Change in Control.
Section 13(b) shall control the treatment of any Options outstanding at the time of a Change in Control. Any Options that are exercisable as of a Change in Control shall remain exercisable for a period ending not before the earlier of
(x) the six (6) month anniversary of the Change in Control or (y) the expiration of the stated term of the Option. 

5.11   Prohibition of Cashing-Out of Underwater Options. The Committee shall be prohibited from making a cash
payment in cancellation of all or part of an Option with an exercise price in excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the effective date of such cash payment. 
  

	6.	[intentionally omitted]. 

  

	7.	Stock Appreciation Rights. 

 The Committee may in its discretion, either alone or in
connection with the grant of an Option, grant Stock Appreciation Rights in accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Agreement. If granted in connection with an Option, a Stock Appreciation Right shall
cover the same Shares covered by the Option (or such lesser number of Shares as the Committee may determine) and shall, except as provided in this Section 7, be subject to the same terms and conditions as the related Option. 

7.1    Time of Grant. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted (a) at any time if unrelated to an
Option, or (b) if related to an Option, either at the time of grant or at any time thereafter during the term of the Option. 

7.2    Stock Appreciation Right Related to an Option. 

(a)      Exercise. A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with an Option shall be
exercisable at such time or times and only to the extent that the related Option is exercisable, and will not be transferable except to the extent the related Option may be transferable. A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with an
Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable only if the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise exceeds the exercise price specified in the related Incentive Stock Option Agreement. In no event shall a Stock Appreciation Right related
to an Option have a term of greater than ten (10) years. 
 (b)      Amount Payable. Upon
the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right related to an Option, the Grantee shall be entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise of such Stock Appreciation
Right over the per Share exercise price under the related Option, by (ii) the number of Shares as to which such Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any manner the amount payable
with respect to any Stock Appreciation Right by including such a limit in the Agreement evidencing the Stock Appreciation Right at the time it is granted. 

  
 13 

 (c)      Treatment of Related Options and Stock
Appreciation Rights Upon Exercise. Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with an Option, the Option shall be canceled to the extent of the number of Shares as to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised,
and upon the exercise of an Option granted in connection with a Stock Appreciation Right, the Stock Appreciation Right shall be canceled to the extent of the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised or surrendered. 

7.3    Stock Appreciation Right Unrelated to an Option. The Committee may grant to Eligible Individuals Stock
Appreciation Rights unrelated to Options. Stock Appreciation Rights unrelated to Options shall contain such terms and conditions as to exercisability (subject to Section 7.7), vesting and duration as the Committee shall determine, but in no
event shall they have a term of greater than ten (10) years. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right unrelated to an Option, the Grantee shall be entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying (a) the excess of the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the date of exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right over the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Stock Appreciation Right was granted, by (b) the number of Shares as to which the Stock Appreciation Right is being
exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to any Stock Appreciation Right by including such a limit in the Agreement evidencing the Stock Appreciation Right at the time it is
granted. 
 7.4    Non-Transferability. No Stock Appreciation Right shall be transferable by the Grantee
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order (within the meaning of Rule 16a-12 promulgated under the Exchange Act), and such Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable during the
lifetime of such Grantee only by the Grantee or his or her guardian or legal representative. The terms of such Stock Appreciation Right shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the beneficiaries, executors, administrators, heirs and successors of
the Grantee. 
 7.5    Method of Exercise. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercised by a Grantee only
by a written notice delivered in person or by mail to the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s principal executive office, specifying the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. If requested
by the Committee, the Grantee shall deliver the Agreement evidencing the Stock Appreciation Right being exercised and the Agreement evidencing any related Option to the Secretary of the Company who shall endorse thereon a notation of such exercise
and return such Agreement to the Grantee. 
 7.6    Form of Payment. Payment of the amount determined under
Sections 7.2(b) or 7.3 may be made in the discretion of the Committee solely in whole Shares in a number determined at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right, or solely in cash, or in a combination of cash
and Shares. If the Committee decides to make full payment in Shares and the amount payable results in a fractional Share, payment for the fractional Share will be made in cash. 

7.7    Effect of Change in Control. Section 13(b) shall control the treatment of any Stock Appreciation
Rights outstanding at the time of a Change in Control. Any Stock Appreciation Rights that are exercisable as of a Change in Control shall remain exercisable for a period ending not before the earlier of (x) the six (6) month anniversary of
the Change in Control or (y) the expiration of the stated term of the Stock Appreciation Right.

	8.	Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. 

 8.1    Restricted
Stock. The Committee may grant Awards to Eligible Individuals of Restricted Stock, which shall be evidenced by an Agreement between the Company and the Grantee. Each Agreement shall contain such restrictions, terms and conditions as the
Committee may, in its discretion, determine and (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) such Agreements may require that an appropriate legend be placed on Share certificates. Awards of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the terms and
provisions set forth below in this Section 8.1. 
 (a)      Rights of Grantee. Shares of
Restricted Stock granted pursuant to an Award hereunder shall be issued in the name of the Grantee as soon as reasonably practicable after the Award is granted provided that the Grantee has executed an Agreement evidencing the Award, the appropriate
blank stock powers and, in the discretion of the Committee, an escrow agreement and any other documents which the Committee may require as a condition to the issuance of such Shares. If a Grantee shall fail to execute the Agreement evidencing a
Restricted Stock Award, or any documents which the Committee may require within the time period prescribed by the Committee at the time the Award is granted, the Award shall be null and void. At the discretion of the Committee, Shares issued in
connection with a Restricted Stock Award shall be deposited together with the stock powers with an escrow agent (which may be the Company) designated by the Committee. Unless the Committee determines otherwise and as set forth in the Agreement, upon
delivery of the Shares to the escrow agent, the Grantee shall have all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect
to the Shares. 
 (b)      Non-Transferability. Until all restrictions upon the Shares of
Restricted Stock awarded to a Grantee shall have lapsed in the manner set forth in Section 8.1(c), such Shares shall not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and shall not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated. 

(c)      Lapse of Restrictions. 

(1)    Generally. Restrictions upon Shares of Restricted Stock awarded hereunder shall lapse
at such time or times and on such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine. The Agreement evidencing the Award shall set forth any such restrictions. 

(2)    Effect of Change in Control. Section 13(b) shall control the treatment of any
Shares of Restricted Stock then outstanding in the event of a Change in Control. 

(d)      Treatment of Dividends. At the time an Award of Shares of Restricted Stock is granted,
the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the payment to the Grantee of dividends, or a specified portion thereof, declared or paid on such Shares by the Company shall be (a) deferred until the lapsing of the restrictions imposed
upon such Shares and (b) held by the Company for the account of the Grantee until such time. In the event that dividends are to be deferred, the Committee shall determine whether such dividends are to be reinvested in Shares (which shall be
held as additional Shares of Restricted Stock) or held in cash. If deferred dividends are to be held in cash, there may be credited at the end of each year (or portion thereof) interest on the amount of the account at the beginning of the

  
 15 

 
year at a rate per annum as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Payment of deferred dividends in respect of Shares of Restricted Stock (whether held in cash or as additional Shares
of Restricted Stock), together with interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be made upon the lapsing of restrictions imposed on the Shares in respect of which the deferred dividends were paid, and any dividends deferred (together with any interest
accrued thereon) in respect of any Shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited upon the forfeiture of such Shares. 

(e)      Delivery of Shares. Upon the lapse of the restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock, the
Committee shall cause a stock certificate to be delivered to the Grantee with respect to such Shares, free of all restrictions hereunder. 

8.2    Restricted Stock Units. The Committee may grant to Eligible Individuals Awards of Restricted Stock
Units, which shall be evidenced by an Agreement. Each such Agreement shall contain such restrictions, terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine. Awards of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the terms and
provisions set forth below in this Section 8.2. 
 (a)      Payment of Awards. Each
Restricted Stock Unit shall represent the right of a Grantee to receive a payment upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit or on any later date specified by the Committee equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the date the Restricted Stock
Unit was granted, the vesting date or such other date as determined by the Committee at the time the Restricted Stock Unit was granted. The Committee may, at the time a Restricted Stock Unit is granted, provide a limitation on the amount payable in
respect of each Restricted Stock Unit. The Committee may provide for the settlement of Restricted Stock Units in cash or with Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the payment to which the Grantee has become entitled. 

(b)      Effect of Change in Control. Section 13(b) shall control the treatment of any
Restricted Stock Units then outstanding in the event of a Change in Control. 
  

	9.	Performance Awards. 

 9.1      Performance Units.
The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Awards of Performance Units to Eligible Individuals, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Agreement between the Company and the Grantee; provided that, when aggregated with
Performance Awards granted under the 2000 Stock Option and Award Plan in any calendar year, no Eligible Individual may be granted Performance Awards in the aggregate in respect of more than 1,000,000 Shares. Contingent upon the attainment of
specified Performance Objectives within the Performance Cycle, Performance Units represent the right to receive payment as provided in Section 9.1(b) of (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Performance Unit was granted, the
date the Performance Unit became vested or any other date specified by the Committee or (ii) a percentage (which may be more than 100%) of the amount described in clause (i) depending on the level of Performance Objective attainment;
provided, however, that the Committee may at the time a Performance Unit is granted specify a maximum amount payable in respect of a vested Performance Unit. Each Agreement shall specify the number of Performance Units to which it relates,
the Performance Objectives which must be satisfied in order for the Performance Units to vest and the Performance Cycle within which such Performance Objectives must be satisfied. 

  
 16 

 (a)      Vesting and Forfeiture. Subject to Sections
9.3(c) and 9.4, a Grantee shall become vested with respect to the Performance Units to the extent that the Performance Objectives set forth in the Agreement are satisfied for the Performance Cycle. 

(b)      Payment of Awards. Subject to Section 9.3(c), payment to Grantees in respect of
vested Performance Units shall be made as soon as practicable after the last day of the Performance Cycle to which such Award relates unless the Agreement evidencing the Award provides for the deferral of payment, in which event the terms and
conditions of the deferral shall be set forth in the Agreement. Subject to Section 9.4, such payments may be made entirely in Shares valued at their Fair Market Value, entirely in cash, or in such combination of Shares and cash as the Committee
in its discretion shall determine at any time prior to such payment, provided, however, that if the Committee in its discretion determines to make such payment entirely or partially in Shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee must determine
the extent to which such payment will be in Shares of Restricted Stock and the terms of such Restricted Stock at the time the Award is granted. 

9.2    Performance Shares. The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Awards of Performance Shares to
Eligible Individuals, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Agreement between the Company and the Grantee. Each Agreement may require that an appropriate legend be placed on Share certificates. Awards of Performance Shares shall
be subject to the following terms and provisions: 
 (a)      Rights of Grantee. The Committee
shall provide at the time an Award of Performance Shares is made the time or times at which the actual Shares represented by such Award shall be issued in the name of the Grantee; provided, however, that no Performance Shares shall be issued
until the Grantee has executed an Agreement evidencing the Award, the appropriate blank stock powers and, in the discretion of the Committee, an escrow agreement and any other documents which the Committee may require as a condition to the issuance
of such Performance Shares. If a Grantee shall fail to execute the Agreement evidencing an Award of Performance Shares, the appropriate blank stock powers and, in the discretion of the Committee, an escrow agreement and any other documents which the
Committee may require within the time period prescribed by the Committee at the time the Award is granted, the Award shall be null and void. At the discretion of the Committee, Shares issued in connection with an Award of Performance Shares shall be
deposited together with the stock powers with an escrow agent (which may be the Company) designated by the Committee. Except as restricted by the terms of the Agreement, upon delivery of the Shares to the escrow agent, the Grantee shall have, in the
discretion of the Committee, all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect to the Shares. 

(b)      Non-Transferability. Until any restrictions upon the Performance Shares awarded to a
Grantee shall have lapsed in the manner set forth in Section 9.2(c) or 9.4, such Performance Shares shall not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and shall not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated, nor shall they be delivered to the
Grantee. The Committee may also impose such other restrictions and conditions on the Performance Shares, if any, as it deems appropriate. 

(c)      Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to Sections 9.3(c) and 9.4, restrictions upon Performance
Shares awarded hereunder shall lapse and such Performance Shares shall become vested at such time or times and on such terms, conditions and satisfaction of Performance Objectives as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine at the time an
Award is granted. 

  
 17 

 (d)      Treatment of Dividends. At the time the
Award of Performance Shares is granted, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the payment to the Grantee of dividends, or a specified portion thereof, declared or paid on Shares represented by such Award which have been issued by the
Company to the Grantee shall be (i) deferred until the lapsing of the restrictions imposed upon such Performance Shares and (ii) held by the Company for the account of the Grantee until such time. In the event that dividends are to be
deferred, the Committee shall determine whether such dividends are to be reinvested in shares of Stock (which shall be held as additional Performance Shares) or held in cash. If deferred dividends are to be held in cash, there may be credited at the
end of each year (or portion thereof) interest on the amount of the account at the beginning of the year at a rate per annum as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Payment of deferred dividends in respect of Performance Shares (whether
held in cash or in additional Performance Shares), together with interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be made upon the lapsing of restrictions imposed on the Performance Shares in respect of which the deferred dividends were paid, and any
dividends deferred (together with any interest accrued thereon) in respect of any Performance Shares shall be forfeited upon the forfeiture of such Performance Shares. 

(e)      Delivery of Shares. Upon the lapse of the restrictions on Performance Shares awarded
hereunder, the Committee shall cause a stock certificate to be delivered to the Grantee with respect to such Shares, free of all restrictions hereunder. 

9.3    Performance Objectives. 

(a)      Establishment. Performance Objectives for Performance Awards may be expressed in terms of
(i) earnings per Share, (ii) net revenue, (iii) adjusted EBITDA (iv) Share price, (v) pre-tax profits, (vi) net earnings, (vii) return on equity or assets, (viii) operating income, (ix) EBITDA margin,
(x) EBITDA margin improvement, (xi) bad debt expense, (xii) cash receipts, (xiii) uncompensated care expense, (xiv) days in net revenue in net patient accounts receivable, (xv) gross income, (xvi) net income
(before or after taxes), (xvii) cash flow; (xviii) gross profit, (xix) gross profit return on investment, (xx) gross margin return on investment, (xxi) gross margin; (xxii) operating margin, (xxiii) working
capital, (xxiv) earnings before interest and taxes, (xxv) return on capital, (xxvi) return on invested capital, (xxvii) revenue growth, (xxviii) annual recurring revenues, (xxix) recurring revenues, (xxx) total
shareholder return, (xxxi) economic value added, (xxxii) specified objectives with regard to limiting the level of increase in all or a portion of the Company’s bank debt or other long-term or short-term public or private debt or
other similar financial obligations of the Company, which may be calculated net of cash balances and/or other offsets and adjustments as may be established by the Committee in its sole discretion, (xxxiii) reduction in operating expenses, or
(xxxiv) any combination of the foregoing. Performance Objectives may be in respect of the performance of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any of its Divisions or any combination thereof. Performance Objectives may be absolute or relative
(to prior performance of the Company or to the performance of one or more other entities or external indices) and may be expressed in terms of a progression within a specified range. The Performance Objectives with respect to a Performance Cycle
shall be established in writing by the Committee by the earlier of (x) the date on which a quarter of the Performance Cycle has elapsed or (y) the date which is ninety (90) days after the commencement of the Performance Cycle, and in
any event while the performance relating to the Performance Objectives remain substantially uncertain. 

  
 18 

 (b)    Effect of Certain Events. At the time of the granting of
a Performance Award, or at any time thereafter, in either case to the extent permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder without adversely affecting the treatment of the Performance Award as Performance-Based
Compensation, the Committee may provide for the manner in which performance will be measured against the Performance Objectives (or may adjust the Performance Objectives) to reflect the impact of specified corporate transactions, accounting or tax
law changes and other extraordinary or nonrecurring events. 
 (c)    Determination of Performance. Prior
to the vesting, payment, settlement or lapsing of any restrictions with respect to any Performance Award that is intended to constitute Performance-Based Compensation made to a Grantee who is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee
shall certify in writing that the applicable Performance Objectives have been satisfied to the extent necessary for such Award to qualify as Performance Based Compensation. 

9.4      Effect of Change in Control. Section 13(b) shall control the treatment of any
Performance Units then outstanding in the event of a Change in Control. 

9.5      Non-Transferability. Until the vesting of Performance Units or the lapsing of any
restrictions on Performance Shares, as the case may be, such Performance Units or Performance Shares shall not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and shall not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated. 

 

	10.	Share Awards. The Committee may grant a Share Award to any Eligible Individual on such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion. Share Awards may be made as additional compensation for
services rendered by the Eligible Individual or may be in lieu of cash or other compensation to which the Eligible Individual is entitled from the Company. 

  

	11.	Effect of a Termination of Employment. 

 The Agreement evidencing the grant of each
Option and each Award shall set forth the terms and conditions applicable to such Option or Award upon a termination or change in the status of the employment of the Optionee or Grantee by the Company, a Subsidiary or a Division (including a
termination or change by reason of the sale of a Subsidiary or a Division), which shall be as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine at the time the Option or Award is granted or thereafter. 

 

	12.	Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization. 

 (a)    In the event of
a Change in Capitalization, the Committee shall conclusively determine the appropriate adjustments, if any, to (i) the maximum number and class of Shares or other stock or securities with respect to which Options or Awards may be granted under
the Plan, (ii) the number and class of Shares or other stock or securities which are subject to outstanding Options or Awards granted under the Plan and the exercise price therefor, if applicable, and (iii) the Performance Objectives. 

(b)    Any such adjustment in the Shares or other stock or securities (a) subject to outstanding Incentive
Stock Options (including any adjustments in the exercise price) shall be made in such manner as not to constitute a modification as defined by Section 

  
 19 

 
424(h)(3) of the Code and only to the extent permitted by Sections 422 and 424 of the Code or (b) subject to outstanding Options or Awards that are intended to qualify as Performance-Based
Compensation shall be made in such a manner as not to adversely affect the treatment of the Options or Awards as Performance-Based Compensation. In addition, (a) no adjustment to any Option or Award that is not subject to Section 409A of
the Code shall be made in a manner that would subject the Option or Award to Section 409A of the Code and (b) any adjustment to an Option or Award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made only in a manner and to the
extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code. 
 (c)    If, by reason of a Change in Capitalization, a
Grantee of an Award shall be entitled to, or an Optionee shall be entitled to exercise an Option with respect to, new, additional or different shares of stock or securities of the Company or any other corporation, such new, additional or different
shares shall thereupon be subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and performance criteria which were applicable to the Shares subject to the Award or Option, as the case may be, prior to such Change in Capitalization. 

 

	13.	Effect of Certain Transactions; Effect of Change in Control. 

(a)    Effect of Certain Transactions. Subject to Sections 5.10, 7.7, 8.2(b) and 9.4 or as otherwise
provided in an Agreement, in the event of (a) the liquidation or dissolution of the Company or (b) a merger or consolidation of the Company (a “Transaction”), the Plan and the Options and Awards issued hereunder shall continue in
effect in accordance with their respective terms, except that following a Transaction either (i) each outstanding Option or Award shall be treated as provided for in the agreement entered into in connection with the Transaction or (ii) if
not so provided in such agreement, each Optionee and Grantee shall be entitled to receive in respect of each Share subject to any outstanding Options or Awards, as the case may be, upon exercise of any Option or payment or transfer in respect of any
Award, the same number and kind of stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration that each holder of a Share was entitled to receive in the Transaction in respect of a Share; provided, however, that such stock, securities, cash,
property, or other consideration shall remain subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and performance criteria which were applicable to the Options and Awards prior to such Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee may, without
the consent of any Optionee or Grantee, provide for the cancellation of outstanding Awards in connection with a Transaction in exchange for the payment in cash or property equal in value to the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying such Awards,
less, in the case of Options, the aggregate exercise price thereof; provided that Options with an aggregate exercise price that is equal to or in excess of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying such Options may be cancelled
in connection with such Transaction without any consideration being paid in respect thereof. The treatment of any Option or Award as provided in this Section 13(a) shall be conclusively presumed to be appropriate for purposes of
Section 12. 
 (b)    Effect of Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to
the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control, the following provisions of this Section 13(b) shall apply except to the extent an Option or Award Agreement provides for a different treatment (in which case the Option or Award Agreement
shall govern and this Section 13(b) shall not be applicable): 
 (i)    If and to the extent
that outstanding Options or Awards under the Plan (A) are assumed by the successor corporation (or affiliate thereto) or continued or (B) are replaced with equity awards that preserve the existing value of the Options or

  
 20 

 
Awards at the time of the Change in Control and provide for subsequent payout in accordance with a vesting schedule and Performance Objectives, as applicable, that are the same or more favorable
to the Participants than the vesting schedule and Performance Objectives applicable to the Options or Awards, then all such Options or Awards or such substitutes thereof shall remain outstanding and be governed by their respective terms and the
provisions of the Plan, subject to Section 13(b)(iv) below. 
 (ii)    If and to the extent
that outstanding Options or Awards under the Plan are not assumed, continued or replaced in accordance with Section 13(b)(i) above, then upon the Change in Control the following treatment (referred to as “Change-in-Control Treatment”)
shall apply to such Options or Awards: (A) outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall immediately vest and become exercisable; (B) the restrictions and other conditions applicable to outstanding Restricted Shares, Restricted
Stock Units and Stock Awards, including vesting requirements, shall immediately lapse; such Awards shall be free of all restrictions and fully vested; and, with respect to Restricted Stock Units, shall be payable immediately in accordance with their
terms or, if later, as of the earliest permissible date under Code Section 409A; and (C) outstanding Performance Awards granted under the Plan shall immediately vest and shall become immediately payable in accordance with their terms as if
the Performance Objectives have been achieved at the target performance level. 
 (iii)    If and
to the extent that outstanding Options or Awards under the Plan are not assumed, continued or replaced in accordance with Section 13(b)(i) above, then in connection with the application of the Change-in-Control Treatment set forth in
Section 13(b)(ii) above, the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide for cancellation of such outstanding Awards at the time of the Change in Control in which case a payment of cash, property or a combination thereof shall be made to each
such Optionee or Grantee upon the consummation of the Change in Control that is determined by the Board in its sole discretion and that is at least equal to the excess (if any) of the value of the consideration that would be received in such Change
in Control by the holders of the Company’s securities relating to such Options or Awards over the exercise or purchase price (if any) for such Options or Awards (except that, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, such payment
shall be limited as necessary to prevent the Option or Stock Appreciation Right from being subject to the excise tax under Code Section 409A). 

(iv)    If and to the extent that (A) outstanding Options or Awards are assumed, continued or
replaced in accordance with Section 13(b)(i) above and (B) a Optionee’s or Grantee’s employment with, or performance of services for, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or successors is terminated by the Company or such
Subsidiary or successor for any reasons other than Cause or by such Optionee or Grantee for Good Reason, in each case, within the two-year period commencing on the Change in Control, then, as of the date of such Participant’s termination, the
Change-in-Control Treatment set forth in Section 13(b)(ii) above shall apply to all assumed or replaced Options or Awards of such Participant then outstanding. 

(v)    Outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that are assumed, continued or replaced in
accordance with Section 13(b)(i) may be exercised by the Optionee or Grantee in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of such Option or Award as set forth in the applicable Agreement or elsewhere; provided, however, that Options
or Stock Appreciation Rights that become exercisable in accordance with Section 13(b)(iv) may be exercised until the expiration of the original full term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right notwithstanding the other original terms and
conditions of such Award, to the extent allowed without such Option or Stock Appreciation Right becoming subject to the excise tax under Code Section 409A).

	14.	Interpretation. 

 Following the required registration of any equity security of the
Company pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act: 
 (a)    The Plan is intended to comply with Rule 16b-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act and the Committee shall interpret and administer the provisions of the Plan or any Agreement in a manner consistent therewith. Any provisions inconsistent with such Rule shall be inoperative and shall not affect
the validity of the Plan. 
 (b)    Unless otherwise expressly stated in the relevant Agreement, each Option,
Stock Appreciation Right and Performance Award granted under the Plan is intended to be Performance-Based Compensation. The Committee shall not be entitled to exercise any discretion otherwise authorized hereunder with respect to such Options or
Awards if the ability to exercise such discretion or the exercise of such discretion itself would cause the compensation attributable to such Options or Awards to fail to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation. 

(c)    To the extent that any legal requirement of Section 16 of the Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of
the Code as set forth in the Plan ceases to be required under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of the Code, that Plan provision shall cease to apply. 

 

	15.	Termination and Amendment of the Plan or Modification of Options and Awards. 

15.1      Plan Amendment or Termination. The Plan shall terminate on the day preceding the tenth
anniversary of the date of its most recent adoption by the Board and no Option or Award may be granted thereafter. The Board may sooner terminate the Plan and the Board may at any time and from time to time amend, modify or suspend the Plan;
provided, however, that: 
 (a)    no such amendment, modification, suspension or termination shall impair
or adversely alter any Options or Awards theretofore granted under the Plan, except with the written consent of the Optionee or Grantee, nor shall any amendment, modification, suspension or termination deprive any Optionee or Grantee of any Shares
which he or she may have acquired through or as a result of the Plan; and 
 (b)    to the extent necessary under
any applicable law, regulation or exchange requirement no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company in accordance with applicable law, regulation or exchange requirement. 

15.2      Modification of Options and Awards. No modification of an Option or Award shall adversely
alter or impair any rights or obligations under the Option or Award without the written consent of the Optionee or Grantee, as the case may be. 

15.3      No Repricing of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee shall have no
authority to make any adjustment (other than in connection with a stock dividend, recapitalization or other transaction where an adjustment is permitted or required under the 

  
 22 

 
terms of the Plan) or amendment, and no such adjustment or amendment shall be made, that reduces or would have the effect of reducing the exercise price of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right
previously granted under the Plan, whether through amendment, cancellation or replacement grants, or other means (including without limitation the buyout for cash of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right that has a fair market value that is less
than the strike price for said Option or Stock Appreciation Right), unless the Company’s stockholders shall have approved such adjustment or amendment. 
  

	16.	Non-Exclusivity of the Plan. 

 The adoption of the Plan by the Board shall not be
construed as amending, modifying or rescinding any previously approved incentive arrangement or as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation,
the granting of stock options otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases. 
  

	17.	Limitation of Liability. 

 As illustrative of the limitations of liability of the
Company, but not intended to be exhaustive thereof, nothing in the Plan shall be construed to: 
 (a)    give any
person any right to be granted an Option or Award other than at the sole discretion of the Committee; 

(b)    give any person any rights whatsoever with respect to Shares except as specifically provided in the Plan;

 (c)    limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any person
at any time; or 
 (d)    be evidence of any agreement or understanding, expressed or implied, that the Company
will employ any person at any particular rate of compensation or for any particular period of time. 
  

	18.	Regulations and Other Approvals; Governing Law. 

18.1      Except as to matters of federal law, the Plan and the rights of all persons claiming hereunder
shall be construed and determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles thereof. 

18.2      The obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Shares with respect to Options and Awards
granted under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including all applicable federal and state securities laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or
appropriate by the Committee. 
 18.3      The Board may make such changes as may be necessary or
appropriate to comply with the rules and regulations of any government authority, or to obtain for Eligible Individuals granted Incentive Stock Options the tax benefits under the applicable provisions of the Code and regulations promulgated
thereunder. 

  
 23 

 18.4      Each Option and Award is subject to the requirement
that, if at any time the Committee determines, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of Shares issuable pursuant to the Plan is required by any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or
approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant of an Option or Award or the issuance of Shares, no Options or Awards shall be granted or payment made or Shares issued, in
whole or in part, unless listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions as acceptable to the Committee. 

18.5      Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or any Agreement to the contrary, in the event
that the disposition of Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then current registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and is not otherwise exempt from such registration,
such Shares shall be restricted against transfer to the extent required by the Securities Act and Rule 144 or other regulations thereunder. The Committee may require any individual receiving Shares pursuant to an Option or Award granted under the
Plan, as a condition precedent to receipt of such Shares, to represent and warrant to the Company in writing that the Shares acquired by such individual are acquired without a view to any distribution thereof and will not be sold or transferred
other than pursuant to an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption applicable under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The certificates evidencing any such Shares shall
be appropriately amended or have an appropriate legend placed thereon to reflect their status as restricted securities as aforesaid. 

18.6      Compliance With Section 409A. All Options and Awards granted under the plan are
intended either not to be subject to Section 409A of the Code or, if subject to Section 409A of the Code, to be administered, operated and construed in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and any guidance issued thereunder.
Notwithstanding this or any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may amend the Plan or any Option or Award granted hereunder in any manner, or take any other action, that it determines, in its sole discretion, is necessary,
appropriate or advisable to cause the Plan or any Option or Award granted hereunder to comply with Section 409A and any guidance issued thereunder. Any such action, once taken, shall be deemed to be effective from the earliest date necessary to
avoid a violation of Section 409A and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all Eligible Individuals and other individuals having or claiming any right or interest under the Plan. 

 

	19.	Miscellaneous. 

 19.1      Multiple Agreements. The
terms of each Option or Award may differ from other Options or Awards granted under the Plan at the same time or at some other time. The Committee may also grant more than one Option or Award to a given Eligible Individual during the term of the
Plan, either in addition to, or in substitution for, one or more Options or Awards previously granted to that Eligible Individual. 

19.2      Beneficiary Designation. Each Optionee or Grantee may, from time to time, name one or
more individuals (each, a “Beneficiary”) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid or who may exercise any rights of the Optionee or Grantee under any Option or Award granted under the Plan in the event of the Optionee’s or
Grantee’s death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit or exercises such Option. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Optionee or Grantee, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be
effective only when filed by the Optionee or Grantee in writing with 

  
 24 

 
the Company during the Optionee’s or Grantee’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Optionee’s or Grantee’s death and rights to
be exercised following the Optionee’s or Grantee’s death shall be paid to or exercised by the Optionee’s or Grantee’s estate. 
  

	19.3	Withholding of Taxes. 

 (a)    At such times as an Optionee
or Grantee recognizes taxable income in connection with the receipt of Shares or cash hereunder (a “Taxable Event”), the Optionee or Grantee shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the federal, state and local income taxes and other
amounts as may be required by law to be withheld by the Company in connection with the Taxable Event (the “Withholding Taxes”) prior to the issuance, or release from escrow, of such Shares or the payment of such cash. The Company shall
have the right to deduct from any payment of cash to an Optionee or Grantee an amount equal to the Withholding Taxes in satisfaction of the obligation to pay Withholding Taxes. The Committee may provide in an Agreement evidencing an Option or Award
at the time of grant or thereafter that the Optionee or Grantee, in satisfaction of the obligation to pay Withholding Taxes to the Company, may elect to have withheld a portion of the Shares issuable to him or her pursuant to the Option or Award
having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Withholding Taxes. In the event Shares are withheld by the Company to satisfy any obligation to pay Withholding Taxes, such Shares shall be retired and cancelled and shall not thereafter be
available to grant an Option or Award with respect thereto. 
 (b)    If an Optionee makes a disposition, within
the meaning of Section 424(c) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, of any Share or Shares issued to such Optionee pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within the two-year period commencing on the day after the
date of the grant or within the one-year period commencing on the day after the date of transfer of such Share or Shares to the Optionee pursuant to such exercise, the Optionee shall, within ten (10) days of such disposition, notify the Company
thereof, by delivery of written notice to the Company at its principal executive office. 

19.4      Effective Date. The effective date of this Plan shall be March 19, 2014, subject
only to the approval by the holders of a majority of the securities of the Company entitled to vote thereon, in accordance with the applicable laws, within twelve (12) months of the adoption of the Plan by the Board.

subsidiaries with the performance of the Funds (as defined below), by linking a portion of their compensation to Incentive Fees (as defined below) generated by such Funds. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as creating an express or implied

Group on each applicable Incentive Fee Payment Date, determined and payable in accordance with Section 5 of the Plan. For purposes of clarity, a new Bonus Pool for a Fund shall be established with respect to each applicable Incentive Fee

 (k) “Incentive Fees” with respect to a Fund shall mean the product of (x) the
aggregate percentage ownership of third party investors of the Fund (based on their percentage ownership interest in the Fund as of the Incentive Fee Calculation Date) and (y) all incentive fee or promote (or equivalent) amounts paid or
distributed in cash to the Company Group in its direct or indirect capacity as investment manager, general partner or managing member of the Fund that are in excess of distributions payable to the Company Group in respect of its or its
affiliates’ percentage interest (whether as general partner, limited partner or member) in the Fund’s capital on the Incentive Fee Calculation Date; provided, however, that Incentive Fees shall not include (i) management
fees, whether or not payable as a distribution by the Fund, payable to the Company Group that are based on a fixed percentage of a Fund’s capital, capital commitments, net asset value or similar amount (i.e., “management
fees”), (ii) dividends, distributions and/or interest earned on investments in preferred stock or debt securities of the Funds, (iii) fees paid to the Company Group in its capacity as investment advisor to investment companies
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and (iv) any other fees payable by a Fund to the Company Group or its affiliates in respect of services provided to the Fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the

applicable Bonus Determination Date divided by (b) the aggregate number of Units allocable with respect to such Fund, as of the applicable Bonus Determination Date, as determined by the Committee. For avoidance of doubt, the
Per-Unit Value shall account for any adjustment approved by the Committee to issue or re-issue or allocate or re-allocate unallocated or forfeited Units.

Participants or other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries that may become Participants under the Plan. 
 3.
Administration. The Committee shall have the sole discretionary power and authority to interpret the provisions of this Plan and make all decisions and exercise all rights of the Company with respect to the Plan, including, without
limitation, the sole discretion to (a) select Participants under the Plan, (b) determine the Funds subject to the Plan and the total number of Units that may be granted with respect to each such Fund, (c) determine the Funds and

deem advisable; to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any award of Units (including related Award Letters); to make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the Plan; to decide all disputes arising in
connection with the Plan; and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. All decisions and interpretations of the Committee shall be binding on all persons, including the Company and Participants. 

4. Eligibility. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may from time to time select as Participants one or more officers or employees
of the Company or its subsidiaries. 
 5. Determination of Bonus Pool; Payment of Bonuses. 

(a) On each Bonus Determination Date, the Company shall establish a Bonus Pool with respect to the applicable Fund. For avoidance of doubt, a
Participant must be continuously employed by the Company or one of its affiliates through the Bonus Determination Date applicable to a Bonus Pool to be eligible to be paid any Bonus related to such Bonus Pool. 

  
 3 

 (b) Bonuses hereunder for a Participant who is not a Senior Executive as of the applicable Bonus
Determination Date shall be paid to the Participant in a lump-sum in cash as soon as practicable on or following the applicable Bonus Determination Date, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the Plan Year that
includes the applicable Bonus Determination Date, subject to the Participant’s continuous employment through the applicable Bonus Determination Date. 

(c) Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, bonuses payable hereunder for a Participant who is a Senior Executive as of the applicable
Bonus Determination Date (i) shall be payable in any combination of the following (as determined by the Committee in its discretion): (A) shares of restricted common stock of the Company (“Restricted Stock”), (B) restricted

Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership dated as of June 3, 2011, as amended from time-to-time (the “Partnership Agreement”), and the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, having the rights, powers, privileges,
restrictions, qualifications and limitations determined by the Committee, in each case (X) as determined in the Committee’s discretion, (Y) having an aggregate grant date fair value equal to at least 50 percent of the applicable
Bonus, and (Z) with the risk of forfeiture expiring in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the Participant’s continuous employment with the Company or one of its subsidiaries through
each such anniversary date, and (ii) the remainder of such Bonus shall be paid to the Participant in a lump-sum in cash in accordance with the payment schedule set forth in Section 5(b), above, subject, in each case, to the
Participant’s continuous employment through the applicable Bonus Determination Date and in the case of the grant of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or LTIP Units pursuant to clause (i) above, also to the Participant’s
continuous employment through the grant date. Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Committee in its discretion may determine with respect to any Bonus payable hereunder to allow a Participant who is a Senior Executive as of the
applicable Bonus Determination Date to elect to receive a greater percentage (up to 100%) than that provided in clause (i) above in the form of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or LTIP Units, with a corresponding reduction in the
portion of such Bonus payable in cash pursuant to clause (ii) above (equal to the grant date fair value of the amount of Bonus paid pursuant to clause (i) greater than 50% of the applicable Bonus) subject to such rules and conditions
established by the Company with respect to such election or any such Bonus (as applicable). Any Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit or LTIP Unit grants made to Participants who are Senior Executives pursuant to this section shall be granted
under and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable stock incentive plan of the Company and any award agreement(s) thereunder. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Participant receive aggregate Bonuses under the Plan with respect
to any one Plan Year in excess of the Participant’s total compensation (which, for purposes of this section shall include base salary, bonus(es) and equity compensation (the value of which shall be determined based on the grant date fair value
of any such award computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 or any successor provision), but shall exclude (x) Bonuses paid under this Plan and (y) awards granted or paid to the Participant under the Company’s Outperformance
Plan) from the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates with respect to the two most recently completed full calendar years (or, if a Participant has not been employed by the Company or its subsidiary for two full years, the Participant’s
total compensation for such shorter period multiplied by a fraction (i) the 

  
 4 

 
numerator of which is 730 and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of days the Participant has been employed by the Company or its subsidiary through the last date of the applicable
Plan Year). 
 6. Termination of Employment. Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Participant’s Award Letter or the
Plan, including but not limited to Section 5 above, upon a Participant’s termination of employment for any reason, the Participant shall forfeit all Units granted hereunder and any right to receive any Bonus with respect to such Units
without payment of consideration therefor. 
 7. Nature of Units. The Units granted under this Plan shall be used solely as a device
for the measurement and determination of certain amounts to be paid to each Participant as provided herein and such Units shall not constitute or be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind or as stock options or other form of equity or
security of the Company, the Company Group, any Fund or any other entity. A Participant shall have only those rights set forth in this Plan and the Participant’s Award Letter with respect to Units granted to such Participant and shall have no
ownership rights in the Company, the Company Group, any Fund or any other entity by virtue of having been granted Units. Any benefits which become payable hereunder shall be paid from the general assets of the Company. 

8. Section 409A. The provisions regarding all payments to be made hereunder shall be interpreted in such a manner that all such
payments either comply with Section 409A of the Code or are exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code as “short-term deferrals” as described in Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any amounts payable
hereunder are determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, such amounts shall be subject to such additional rules and requirements as specified by the Committee from
time to time in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code and the payment of any such amounts may not be accelerated or delayed except to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code. The Company makes no representation or warranty
and shall have no liability to any Participant or any other person if any payments under any provisions of this Plan are determined to constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code that are subject to the 20 percent additional
tax under Section 409A of the Code. 
 9. Amendment or Termination of Plan. Except as otherwise provided herein (including,
without limitation, the Committee’s ability to discontinue the Plan or any Fund’s inclusion in the Plan with respect to any Plan Year), the Committee may amend or terminate this Plan at any time or from time to time; provided,
however, that, no such amendment shall in any material adverse way affect the rights of a Participant with respect to any Units prior to the date of amendment or termination without the written consent of such affected Participant. 

10. Limitation of Liability. Subject to its obligation to make payments as provided for hereunder, neither the Company, nor any person
acting on its behalf shall be liable for any act performed or the failure to perform any act with respect to this Plan, except in the event that there has been a judicial determination of willful misconduct on the part of the Company or such person.
The Company is not under any obligation to fund any of the payments required to be made hereunder in advance of their actual payment or to establish any reserves with respect to this Plan. 

  
 5 

 11. Miscellaneous. 

(a) No Contract for Continuing Services. This Plan shall not be construed as creating any contract for continued services between the
Company, any Company Group entity or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates and any Participant and nothing herein contained shall give any Participant the right to be retained as an employee of the Company, and Company Group entity or any of their
subsidiaries or affiliates. 
 (b) No Transfers. A Participant’s rights in an interest under the Plan or with respect to any
Unit may not be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred. 
 (c) Unfunded Plan. The Plan shall be unfunded and shall not create (or be
construed to create) a trust or separate fund. Likewise, the Plan shall not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and any Participant. To the extent that any Participant holds any rights by
virtue of an award under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 

(d) Governing Law. The Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the state of California, without regard
to principles of conflict of laws of such state. 
 (e) Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all payments
hereunder any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payments. 
 (f) Effect on Other Plans. Nothing in this Plan
shall be construed to limit the rights of Participants under the Company’s benefit plans, programs or policies. 
 (g) Benefits and
Burdens. This Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Participants, their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns. 

(h) Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Plan shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of
competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Plan, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and
provision of this Plan shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 (i) Waiver. No waiver of any
provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Plan, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Plan, shall not
prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach. 
 (j) Notices. Any
notices, requests, demands, and other communications provided for by this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered in person or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to a Participant at the last address the Participant
has filed in writing with the Company, or to the Company at their main office, attention of the Committee.
