CIGNA Corporation entered into Deferred Stock Unit Agreements dated August 6, 2003 with Messrs.

these agreements, Mr. Hanway received 300,000 deferred stock units, Mr. Bell received 66,675

Appendix
to Exhibit 10.20

FORM OF AMENDED DEFERRED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

This Amended Deferred Stock Unit Agreement between [XXX] and CIGNA Corporation completely replaces
and supersedes in its entirety the Deferred Stock Unit Agreement between the parties dated August
6, 2003, which was amended as of July 26, 2006. This Agreement is effective as of December 31,
2008.

The purpose of this Agreement is to comply with Internal Revenue Code section 409A and to reflect
the vesting of the Units, which occurred on August 6, 2006.

You and CIGNA, intending to be legally bound and in consideration of the promises in this
Agreement, mutually agree as follows:

	1.	 	Definitions. Under this Agreement, these terms shall have the following meanings:
	 
	(a)	 	“Agreement” – this Amended Deferred Stock Unit Agreement.
	 
	(b)	 	“CIGNA” – CIGNA Corporation, or a successor.
	 
	(c)	 	“Committee” – the People Resources Committee of the Board of Directors of CIGNA Corporation,
or any successor committee.
	 
	(d)	 	“Deferred Plan” – the CIGNA Deferred Compensation Plan of 2005.
	 
	(e)	 	“Payment Date” – if the Payment Event is Separation from Service, the July of the year
following the year of your Separation from Service. If the Payment Event is death, the ninety
(90) day period beginning January 1 of the year following the year of your death.
	 
	(f)	 	“Payment Event” – the earlier of your death or Separation from Service. If your Separation
from Service occurs as a result of your death, then death is considered to be the earlier
event.
	 
	(g)	 	“Separation from Service” – your retirement or other termination of employment, from your
employer or service recipient within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).
For this purpose, the level of reasonably anticipated, permanently reduced bona fide services
that will be treated as a Separation from Service is 30%. Generally, your Separation from
Service occurs when your level of services to CIGNA Corporation and its affiliates is reduced
by 70% or more.

 

 

	(h)	 	“Stock Plan” – the CIGNA Long-Term Incentive Plan, or a successor plan.
	 
	(i)	 	“Units” – the deferred stock units described in paragraph 2.
	 
	(j)	 	“Vesting Date” – August 6, 2006, the date your right to Units vested as a result of the
Committee’s determination that CIGNA had met certain performance goals that would cause the
Units to vest. Such performance goals were approved by the Committee when the Units were
granted.
	 
	2.	 	Deferred Stock Units.
	 
	(a)	 	CIGNA granted you [XXX] on August 6, 2003. The number of Units was adjusted to [XXXX] to
reflect a three-for-one stock split on June 4, 2007.
	 
	(b)	 	Each Unit represents your right to receive, under the terms and conditions described in this
Agreement, payment of:

	 	(1)	 	One share of CIGNA common stock; and
	 
	 	(2)	 	Dividend equivalents on one share of CIGNA common stock as described in
paragraph 4.

3. Deferred Share Issuance. Issuance of the shares described in paragraph 2(b)(1) (except for
those shares that CIGNA issued and withheld to meet tax withholding requirements upon the vesting
of the Units) will be deferred until the Payment Date. CIGNA will issue the shares under Article 9
of the Stock Plan as a grant in lieu of an award under a Qualifying Incentive Plan. This Agreement
is a Qualifying Incentive Plan.

4. Dividend Equivalents. From the Vesting Date until the Payment Date, CIGNA will credit an amount
equal to the dividends CIGNA pays on each share of common stock to your Deferred Plan account for
each vested Unit. CIGNA will pay you these deferred dividend equivalents in a single lump sum on
the Payment Date. During this deferral period CIGNA will also credit (or debit) your Deferred Plan
account with hypothetical earnings (or losses) on the deferred dividend equivalents in accordance
with section 3.4 of the Deferred Plan. CIGNA will base the hypothetical earnings credits (or loss
debits) on the provisions of the Deferred Plan. CIGNA will pay you any accumulated hypothetical
earnings in a single lump sum on the Payment Date.

5. Payments after Your Death. Any payments made under this Agreement after your death shall be
made in a lump sum on the applicable Payment Date to your surviving spouse or, if you have no
surviving spouse, to your estate.

	6.	 	Share Adjustments.
	 
	(a)	 	In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, or other subdivision or combination of CIGNA
common stock, the Committee shall make a proportionate adjustment in the number of shares
under paragraph 2(b)(1) and in the number of shares that form the basis of the dividend
equivalents under paragraph 2(b)(2).
	 
	(b)	 	If the outstanding shares of CIGNA common stock are changed or converted into, exchanged or
exchangeable for, a different number or kind of shares or other securities of CIGNA or of
another corporation, by reason of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, reclassification or

 

 

	 	 	combination (an Event), the Committee shall make an appropriate adjustment in the number
and/or kind of shares under paragraph 2(b)(1) and in the number and/or kind of shares that
form the basis of the dividend equivalents under paragraph 2(b)(2), so that your proportionate
interest under this Agreement shall be maintained as before the Event.

7. Effect of Agreement. This Agreement is not a contract of employment for any specified term, and
nothing in it is intended to change, and it shall not be construed as changing, the nature of your
employment from an at-will relationship. This Agreement is limited to the terms and conditions
that it includes and does not otherwise address your compensation or benefits, your duties and
responsibilities, or any of CIGNA’s rights as employer. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement between you and CIGNA with respect to the matters addressed herein and fully replaces and
supersedes all prior agreements or understandings between them related to such matters.

8. Applicable Law. The Agreement is entered into in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and at all
times and for all purposes shall be interpreted, enforced and governed under its laws without
regard to principles of conflict of laws.

9. Arbitration of Disputes. CIGNA and you agree that any controversy or claim arising out of or
relating to this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the American
Arbitration Association, as modified by CIGNA. Copies of the Arbitration Policy and Rules and
Procedures can be obtained from your Human Resources representative. A legal judgment based upon
the Arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the matter.

10. Successors. CIGNA’s rights and obligations under this Agreement will inure to the benefit of,
and be binding upon, CIGNA’s successors and assigns. Your rights under this Agreement, including
the right to receive CIGNA common stock or any other payment, shall not be assignable or
transferable by you except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any other attempted
assignment or alienation shall be void and of no force or effect.

11. Funding of Payments. CIGNA’s obligations under this Agreement to issue shares and make cash
payments are unfunded and unsecured promises, and shall be considered as such for tax purposes and
for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income and Security Act of 1974. Cash shall be paid when
due out of CIGNA’s general assets.

12. Withholding. You must satisfy any required tax withholding obligation when the Units are paid,
and CIGNA reserves the right to withhold enough shares to cover all or part of any applicable tax
withholding.

13. Changes to Agreement. Any amendment to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both
you and CIGNA.

14. Interpretation. All statutory or regulatory references in this Agreement shall include
successor provisions.

15. Section 409A Compliance. It is intended that this Agreement comply with the requirements of
Internal Revenue Code section 409A and the Agreement shall be so administered and interpreted.exv10w21

your CIGNA personal computer, Blackberry, and cell phone during the period you are a
consultant to CIGNA; following the period of your consultancy (as detailed in the

written permission, (i) disclose any Confidential Information to anyone other than
CIGNA employees who have a need to know the Confidential Information or (ii) use any

whether in public or in private, that disparages in any way CIGNA’s integrity, business
reputation, or performance, or disparages any of CIGNA’s current or former directors,
officers, or employees. It shall not, however, be a violation of this paragraph for
you to make truthful statements (i) when required to do so by a court of law or
arbitrator, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over CIGNA’s
business or by any administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof)
with actual or apparent jurisdiction to order you to divulge, disclose or make

conditions that you must continue to honor. You may exercise vested options only in
accordance with the terms of the plan and grants. Any unexercised and unvested options

	a.	 	You acknowledge that there are various local, state, and federal laws that
prohibit, among other things, employment discrimination on the basis of age, sex, race,
color, national origin, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or veteran status and

(ERISA); 42 U.S.C. Section 1981; the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA); the Fair
Labor Standards Act (FLSA), etc., as each may have been amended, and other state and
local human or civil rights laws, as well as other statutes which regulate employment;
and the common law of contracts and torts. You acknowledge that the Company has not
(i) discriminated against you in contravention of these laws; (ii) breached any
contract with you; (iii) committed any civil wrong (tort) against you; or (iv)
otherwise acted unlawfully toward you.
	 
	 	 	You further acknowledge that the Company has paid and, upon payment of
the amounts provided for in this Agreement, will have paid you: (i) all salary,
wages, bonuses and other compensation that might be due to you; and (ii) all
reimbursable expenses, if any, to which you are entitled.
	 
	b.	 	On behalf of yourself, your heirs, executors, administrators, successors
and assigns, you hereby unconditionally release and discharge CIGNA, the various plan
fiduciaries for the benefit plans maintained by or on behalf of CIGNA, and their
successors, assigns, affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, representatives,
agents and employees (collectively, Released Person) from, except as provided in
paragraph 4.c, all claims (including claims for attorneys’ fees and costs), charges,
actions and causes of action,

4

 

	 	 	demands, damages, and liabilities of any kind or
character, in law or equity, suspected or unsuspected, past or present, that you ever
had, may now have, or may later assert against
any Released Person, arising out of or related to your employment with, or
termination of employment from, the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by law,
this release includes, but is not limited to: (i) claims arising under the ADEA, the
Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Workers’ Adjustment and Retraining
Notification Act, ERISA, FMLA, ADA, FLSA, and any other federal, state, or local law,
including the laws of England and Wales and Spain, prohibiting age, race, color,
gender, creed, religion, sexual preference/orientation, marital status, national
origin, mental or physical disability, veteran status, or any other form of unlawful
discrimination or claim with respect to or arising out of your employment with or
termination from the Company, including wage claims; (ii) claims (whether based on
common law or otherwise) arising out of or related to any contract (whether express
or implied); (iii) claims under any federal, state or local constitutions, statutes,
rules or regulations; (iv) claims (whether based on common law or otherwise) arising
out of any kind of tortious conduct (whether intentional or otherwise) including but
not limited to, wrongful termination, defamation, violation of public policy; and
(v) claims included in, related to, or which could have been included in any
presently pending federal, state or local lawsuit filed by you or on your behalf
against any Released Person, which you agree to immediately dismiss with prejudice.
	 
	 	 	For purposes of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of all
Released Persons, you expressly acknowledge that this release is intended to include
not only claims that are known, anticipated, or disclosed, but also claims that are
unknown, unanticipated, or undisclosed. You are aware that there may be discovery of
claims or facts in addition to or different from those known or believed to be true
with respect to the matters related herein. Nevertheless, it is your intention to
fully, finally, and forever settle and release all such matters, and all claims
related thereto, which now exist, may exist, or heretofore have existed between you
and any Released Person, whether suspected or unsuspected. In furtherance of such
intention, this Agreement shall be and remain in effect as a full and complete
release of all such matters, notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any
additional or different claims or facts relative thereto.
	 
	 	 	You also understand that by signing this Agreement you are giving up any right to
become, and you are promising not to consent to become, a member of any class in a
case in which claims are asserted against any Released Person that are related in any
way to your employment with or termination of employment from the Company, and that
involve events that occurred as of the date you signed this Agreement. If you,
without your prior knowledge and consent, are made a member of a class in any such
proceeding, you will opt out of the class at the first opportunity afforded to you
after learning of your inclusion. In this regard, you will execute, without
objection or delay, an “opt-out” form presented to you either by the court in which
such proceeding is pending or by counsel for any Released Person who is made a
defendant in any such proceeding.

5

 

	c.	 	This Release does not include (and you and the Company are not releasing):

	 	(1)	 	any claims against the Company for promises it is making to you
in this Agreement;
	 
	 	(2)	 	any claims for benefit payments to which the Plan Administrator
determines you are entitled under the terms of any retirement, savings, or other
employee benefit programs in which the Company participates (but your Release
does cover any claims you may make for severance benefits beyond those described
or referred to in this Agreement and any claims for benefits beyond those
provided under the terms of the applicable plan);
	 
	 	(3)	 	any claims covered by workers compensation or other laws that are
not, or may not be, as a matter of law, releasable or waivable;
	 
	 	(4)	 	any rights you have to indemnification under the Company’s (and,
if applicable, any Company affiliate’s) by-laws, directors and officers
liability insurance or this Agreement or any rights you may have to obtain
contribution as permitted by law in the event of entry of judgment against you
as a result of any act or failure to act for which you and any Company
Affiliated Party are jointly liable; and
	 
	 	(5)	 	any claims to which you did not knowingly and voluntarily waive
your rights under the ADEA.

5. No Admission of Wrongdoing. Just because the Company is entering into this Agreement and
paying you money, the Company is not admitting that it (or any Released Person) has done
anything wrong or violated any law, rule, order, policy, procedure, or contract, express or
implied, or otherwise incurred any liability. Similarly, by entering into this Agreement,
you are not admitting that you have done anything wrong or violated any law, rule, order,
policy, procedure, or contract, express or implied, or otherwise incurred any liability.

6. Applicable Law. This Agreement is being made in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It
will be interpreted, enforced and governed under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania (without regard to its conflict of laws principles); provided, however, that
your eligibility for, or the amount of any, employee benefits shall be subject to the terms
of the benefit plans and the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended (ERISA). The parties agree that any claim under this Agreement shall be
brought in, and each party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of an arbitrator
in, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

7. Arbitration. Without in any way affecting the release in paragraph 4, any and all
disagreements, disputes or claims listed below will be resolved exclusively by arbitration
in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. Arbitration will be conducted in accordance with
the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as modified
by Company. Copies of the Arbitration Policy and Rules and Procedures have been provided to

6

 

you. A legal judgment based upon the Arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction over the matter. Each party shall be liable for its own costs and expenses
(including attorneys’ fees). You and the Company agree to arbitrate anything:

	a.	 	related in any way to this Agreement or how it is interpreted or implemented
(including the validity of your ADEA waiver); or
	 
	b.	 	that involves your employment with Company or the termination of that
employment, including any disputes arising under local, state or federal statutes or
common law (if for any reason your release and waiver under paragraph 4 is found to be
unenforceable or inapplicable).

8. Final and Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended to be the complete, entire and
final agreement between you and the Company. It fully replaces all earlier agreements or
understandings; however, it does not replace the terms of any employee benefit plan or terms
included in any stock option or restricted stock grant; provided that the covenants and
provisions in paragraphs 2, 4 and 7 above supersede in their entirety any similar provisions
in any employee benefit plan. Neither you nor the Company has relied upon any other
statement, agreement or contract, written or oral, in deciding to enter into this Agreement.
Any amendment to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both you and the Company.
Any waiver by any person of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only if in
writing, specifically referring to the provision being waived and signed by the person
against whom enforcement of the waiver is being sought. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement shall be effective as to any other provision of this Agreement except to the
extent specifically provided in an effective written waiver. If any provision or portion of
this Agreement (other than paragraph 4 “Acknowledgment and Release of Claims”) is determined
to be invalid or unenforceable in a legal forum with competent jurisdiction to so determine,
the remaining provisions or portions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect
to the fullest extent permitted by law and the invalid or unenforceable provisions or
portions shall be deemed to be reformed so as to give maximum legal effect to the agreements
of the parties contained herein.

9. Your Understanding. By signing this Agreement, you admit and agree that:

	a.	 	You have read this Agreement.
	 
	b.	 	You understand it is legally binding, and you were advised to review it with a
lawyer of your choice.
	 
	c.	 	You have had (or had the opportunity to take) at least 21 calendar days to
discuss this Agreement with a lawyer of your choice before signing it and, if you sign
it before the end of that period, you do so of your own free will and with the full
knowledge that you could have taken the full period.

7

 

	d.	 	You realize and understand that the release covers certain claims, demands, and
causes of action against the Company and any Released Persons relating to your
employment or termination of employment, including those under ADEA.
	 
	e.	 	You understand that the terms of this Agreement are not part of an exit
incentive or other employment termination program being offered to a group or class of
employees.
	 
	f.	 	You are signing this Agreement knowingly, voluntarily and with the full
understanding of its consequences, and you have not been forced or coerced in any way.

10. Revoking the Agreement. You have seven calendar days from the date you sign this
Agreement to revoke and cancel it. To do that, a clear, written cancellation letter, signed
by you, must be received by Kristen Gorodetzer, CIGNA Corporation, 1601 Chestnut Street
TL18K, Philadelphia, PA, 19192 before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the seventh calendar day
following the date you sign this Agreement. The Agreement will have no force and effect
until the end of that seventh day; provided that, during such seven-day period, the Company
shall not be able to revoke this Agreement or cancel it.

11. If Legal Action Is Started by You. You understand and agree that the Company’s main
reason for entering into this Agreement is to avoid lawsuits and other litigation.
Therefore, if any legal action released by this Agreement (other than claims excluded from
the release provisions of this Agreement) is started by you (or by someone else on your
behalf) against any Released Person, you agree to withdraw such proceeding or claim with
prejudice.

If you fail to withdraw such proceeding or claim within 30 days of receipt of written notice
from the Released Person requesting that you withdraw such proceeding or claim (or in the
case of a class action, within 30 days of the later of such request or your being given the
opportunity to opt out), then in addition to any other equitable or legal relief that the
Company may be entitled to:

	a.	 	The Company may withhold or retain all or any portion of the amounts due
hereunder;
	 
	b.	 	You agree to pay back to the Company within 60 days after receipt of written
notice from the Company all the money you receive under paragraph 3 (except
sub-paragraphs 3.a, 3.g and 3.h); and
	 
	c.	 	You agree to pay the Company the reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees it incurs
in defending such action.

You represent that as of Today you have not assigned to any other party, and agree not to
assign, any claim released by you under this Agreement. (If you claim that your release of
ADEA claims was not knowing and voluntary, the Company reserves its right to recover from
you its attorneys’ fees and/or costs in defending that claim, at the conclusion of that
action.)

8

 

 Upon a finding by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator that a release or waiver
of claims provided for by paragraph 4 above is illegal, void or unenforceable, the Company
or you, as the case may be, may require the other party to execute promptly a release that
is legal and enforceable and does not extend to Claims not released under paragraph 4. If
you fail to execute such a release within a reasonable period of time, then this Agreement
shall be null and void from Today on, and any money paid to you by the Company after Today
under paragraph 3 (except sub-paragraphs 3.a, 3.g and 3.h) and not previously returned to
the Company, will be treated as an overpayment. You will have to repay that overpayment to
the Company with interest, compounded annually at the rate of 6%. However, the repayment
provision in this paragraph does not apply to legal actions in which you claim that your
release of ADEA claims was not knowing and voluntary.

This paragraph 11 does not apply to any thing of value given to you for which you actually
performed services and by law you are entitled to receive.

This paragraph 11 is not intended to prevent you from instituting legal action for the sole
purpose of enforcing this Agreement or from filing a charge with, or participating in an
investigation conducted by, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any comparable
state human rights agency; provided however, that you expressly waive and relinquish any
right you might have to recover damages or other relief, whether equitable or legal, in any
such proceeding concerning events or actions that arose on or before the date you signed
this Agreement. You agree to inform the EEOC, any other governmental agency, any court or
any arbitration organization that takes jurisdiction over any matter relating to your
employment or termination of employment that this Agreement constitutes a full and final
settlement by you of all claims released hereunder.

12. Representations. The Company represents and warrants that (a) the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement has been fully and validly authorized by all necessary
corporate action (including, without limitation, by any action required to be taken by the
board of directors of the Company or any affiliate, any committee of such board or any
committee or designee administering the applicable CIGNA plans); (b) the officer signing
this Agreement on behalf of the Company is duly authorized to do so; (c) the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement does not violate any applicable law, regulation,
order, judgment or decree or any agreement, plan or corporate governance document to which
the Company or any affiliate is a party or by which it is bound; and (d) upon execution and
delivery of this Agreement by the parties, it shall be a valid and binding obligation of the
Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

13. Notices. Except as provided below, any notice, request or other communication given in
connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given
(a) when personally delivered to the recipient or (b) provided that a written
acknowledgement of receipt is obtained, three days after being sent by prepaid certified or
registered mail, or two days after being sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier, to the address specified in
this

However, CIGNA and you may deliver any notices or other communications related to any
employee benefit or compensation plans, programs or arrangements in the same manner that
similar communications are delivered to or from other current or former employees, including

14. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding on and inure to the benefit of
the parties and their respective successors, heirs (in your case) and permitted assigns. No
rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred
without your prior written consent, except that such rights or obligations may be assigned
or transferred pursuant to a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the
continuing entity, or a sale, liquidation or other disposition of the assets of the Company,
provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to the Company (or in connection
with a purchase of Company assets, assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the
Company under this Agreement), either contractually or as a matter of law. Your rights or
obligations under this Agreement may not be assigned or transferred by you, without the
Company’s prior written consent, other than your rights to compensation and benefits, which
may be transferred only by will or operation of law or pursuant to the terms of the
applicable plan, program, grant or agreement of CIGNA or the Company. In the event of your
death or a judicial determination of your incompetence, references in this Agreement to you
shall be deemed to refer, where appropriate, to your legal representative, or, where
appropriate, to your beneficiary or beneficiaries.

15. Consulting Arrangement. Recognizing the value of your expertise, the depth of your
knowledge about the Company’s international business, and the critical importance to CIGNA
in maintaining a smooth transition while it searches for a new President of International,
you and the Company agree to enter into a consulting arrangement following your termination
of employment, the terms of which are set forth in a separate agreement titled “Consultancy
Agreement.”

16. Signatures. This Agreement is not effective or binding on either party until fully
signed by both parties.

17. Section 409A Compliance. To the extent that any payments or benefits provided under
this Agreement are subject to Internal Revenue Code section 409A (Code section 409A), this
Agreement shall be administered and interpreted in accordance with Code section 409A with
respect to those payments and benefits.
