 9. The third sentence of Section 5(d) is hereby modified by deleting the words “(ii) the Annual Bonus paid to the Executive in the immediately

the Executive’s employment hereunder and by the deadline specified therein and returning it to the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment.” 
  

 2 

 11. Section 5(e) is hereby deleted in it entirety and replaced with the following: 
 “(e) By the Executive for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason if (1) the Executive provides
written notice to the Company setting forth in reasonable detail the condition giving rise to the Good Reason not later than 60 days following the date on which the Executive first obtains knowledge of the occurrence of the condition, (2) the
Company fails to remedy such condition within 30 days (or ten business days in the case of an inadvertent failure as contemplated by clause (ii) below) of receipt of such written notice, and (3) such termination of employment by the
Executive for Good Reason occurs within 30 days of the expiration of the 30 day period referred to in clause (2) above. The following conditions arising without the Executive’s prior written consent shall constitute Good Reason for
termination by the Executive: 
 (i) material diminution, without his consent (not to be unreasonably withheld), in the nature or scope of the
Executive’s responsibilities, duties or authority attendant to the Executive’s position, other than as is materially consistent with the Executive’s assignment to another executive position in accordance with Section 3(a) hereof;
provided, however, that the Company’s failure to continue the Executive’s appointment or election as a director or officer of any of its subsidiaries, a change in reporting relationships resulting from a Change of Control, any diminution
of the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any sale or transfer of equity, property or other assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or, during the first twelve months following a Change of Control, any diminution in
Executive’s title or duties, including but not limited to a change in reporting relationships, whether or not materially consistent with Section 3(a) hereof, shall not constitute “Good Reason”; or 
 (ii) material failure of the Company to provide the Executive the Base Salary in accordance with the terms of Section 4(a) hereof or material breach
by the Company of its obligations pursuant to Section 4(f) hereof in respect of commuting expenses to and from Louisville, Kentucky, excluding in each case an inadvertent failure which is cured within ten business days following notice from the
Executive specifying in detail the nature of such failure; or 
 (iii) Executive is required to relocate his business office to a place more
than 30 miles from both Dallas, Texas and the Company’s existing office in Plano, Texas. 
 In the event of termination in accordance with this
Section 5(e), then the Executive will be entitled to the same pay and benefits he would have been entitled to receive had the Executive been terminated by the Company other than for Cause in accordance with Section 5(d) above; provided
that the Executive satisfies all conditions to such entitlement, including without limitation signing and return of a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder and by the deadline
specified therein and returning it to the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment. In the event of termination hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive under this
Section 5(e) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive and, except for Final Compensation, any obligation of the Company to the Executive hereunder is conditioned upon the Executive signing a timely and effective
Employee Release in accordance with the timing requirements set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.” 
  

 3 

 12. The last sentence of Section 5(g)(i) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following: “In the event of termination hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive under this Section 5(g) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive and, except for Final
Compensation, any obligation of the Company to the Executive hereunder is conditioned upon the Executive signing a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder and by the deadline specified
therein and returning it to the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment.” 
 13. The
following sentence is hereby added after the first sentence of Section 9: “The Company agrees, in consideration of the Executive’s acceptance of the restrictions set forth below, to grant the Executive access to trade secrets and
other Confidential Information of the Company and its Affiliates and to the Company’s valuable business relationships and goodwill.” 
 14. The following sentence is hereby added to Section 23 after the first sentence thereof: “In connection with a Change of Control transaction, the Company and the Principal Subsidiary shall require any successor entity to the
Company or the Principal Subsidiary, as applicable, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.” 
 15. The following is hereby added as a new Section 26: 
 “26. Application of Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code. 
 (a) The compensation, benefits, and other payments described in this Agreement are intended either to
comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the treasury regulations and other guidance issued thereunder, as in effect from time to time, to the extent they are subject to Code Section 409A, or to be exempt from such
requirements, regulations and guidance (where an exemption is available), and shall be construed accordingly. For purposes of Code Section 409A, all references herein to termination of employment or similar terms, when used in a context that
bears upon the payment or timing of payment of any amounts or benefits that constitute or could constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, shall be construed to require a “separation
from service” (as that term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)) from the Company and from all other corporations and trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single “service recipient” with the
Company under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(3). The Company may, but need not, elect in writing, subject to the applicable limitations under Code Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(h) for purposes of determining whether a “separation from service” has occurred. Any such written election shall be deemed part of this Agreement. In addition, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated
as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event may the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.

  

 4 

 (b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if, at the time of the
Executive’s termination of employment with the Company the Executive is a “specified employee” (as hereinafter defined), any and all amounts payable in connection with such separation from service that constitute “nonqualified
deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and that would (but for this sentence) be payable within six months following such separation from service, shall instead be paid in
a lump sum on the first payroll date after the date that follows the Executive’s separation from service by six (6) months, or, if the Executive dies before such payment, within sixty (60) days after the Executive’s death. For
purposes of this Section 26(b), “specified employee” means an individual determined by the Company to be a specified employee as defined in subsection (a)(2)(B)(i) of Code Section 409A. The Company may, but need not, elect in
writing, subject to the applicable limitations under Code Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) for purposes of determining “specified employee” status. Any such
written election shall be deemed part of this Agreement.” 
 16. The Employment Agreement as amended by this Amendment (as so amended,
the “Amended Employment Agreement”) is confirmed as being in full force and effect. The Amended Employment Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes
all prior and current understandings and agreements, whether written or oral. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, which together shall constitute one instrument, and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and
their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns. The Amended Employment Agreement is a Texas contract and shall be construed and enforced under and be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Texas,
without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

 AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
(the “Agreement”) made and entered into in Plano, Texas, by and between LCI Holding Company, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, LifeCare Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Principal Subsidiary”)
with its principal place of business at 5560 Tennyson Parkway, Plano, TX 75024, and Chris Walker, of McKinney, Texas (the “Executive”), effective as of the 15th day of April, 2008 (the “Effective Date”), amending and restating in
its entirety that certain Executive Employment Agreement, dated as of June 22, 1998, by and between LifeCare Management Services, L.L.C., a Louisiana limited liability company (the “LLC”), and the Executive (the “Original
Agreement”). 
 WHEREAS, the LLC and the Executive previously entered into the Original Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Company and Employee wish to amend the terms of the Original Agreement in connection with the continuation of the Executive’s
employment relationship with the Company and its subsidiaries; 
 WHEREAS, the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries are a complex
matter requiring direction and leadership in a variety of arenas, including financial, strategic planning, regulatory, community relations and others; 
 WHEREAS, the Executive is possessed of certain experience and expertise that qualify him to provide the direction and leadership required by the Company and its subsidiaries; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company, its subsidiaries, and its stockholders to enter into this Agreement;
and 
 WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure itself of the continued services of the Executive, and the Executive is willing to be so
employed by the Company, upon the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing
premises and the mutual promises, terms, provisions and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree: 
 1.
Employment. The Original Agreement is hereby amended and restated, and replaced, in its entirety with this Agreement and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to continue the employment of
the Executive and the Executive hereby agrees to continue in the service of the Company and its subsidiaries. 
 2. Term. Subject to
earlier termination as hereafter provided, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall be for a term of twelve (12) months, commencing on the Effective Date, and shall automatically renew thereafter for successive terms of one year each
unless either 

 
party gives notice to the other not less than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the initial or any renewal term that this Agreement shall not
renew, in which event this Agreement shall expire at the end of the then-current term. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, however, in the event of a Change of Control, as hereafter defined, the then-current term hereof shall
be automatically extended as required in order that the remainder of said term shall not be less than twelve (12) months from the date of the Change of Control. The term of this Agreement, as from time to time extended or renewed, is hereafter
referred to as “the term of this Agreement” or “the term hereof.” Any notice of nonrenewal given pursuant to this Section 2 shall be treated for all purposes hereunder, if given by the Company, as a termination other than
for Cause or, if given by the Executive, as a termination for other than Good Reason. 
 3. Capacity and Performance. 
 (a) During the term hereof, the Executive shall serve the Company as its Chief Financial Officer, subject to his appointment by the Board of Directors of
the Company (the “Board”) as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement, or in such other executive position as the Board may designate from time to time. In addition, and without further compensation, the Executive shall
serve as a director and/or officer of one or more of the Company’s subsidiaries (including the Principal Subsidiary) if so elected or appointed from time to time. 
 (b) During the term hereof, the Executive shall be employed by the Company on a full-time basis and shall perform such duties and responsibilities on behalf of the Company and its subsidiaries as may be designated
from time to time by the Board or by its designees. During the term hereof and thereafter, the Company will indemnify the Executive to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law in respect of any action, suit, proceeding or
claim (other than any such action, suit, proceeding, claim or counterclaim initiated by or on behalf of the Executive) to which the Executive is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that the Executive is or was a director or
officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 
 (c) During the term hereof, the Executive shall devote his full business time and his
best efforts, business judgment, skill and knowledge exclusively to the advancement of the business and interests of the Company and its subsidiaries and to the discharge of his duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Executive shall not engage
in any other business activity or serve in any industry, trade, professional, governmental or academic position during the term of this Agreement, except as may be expressly approved in advance by the Board in writing. 
 4. Compensation and Benefits. As compensation for all services performed by the Executive under and during the term hereof and subject to
performance of the Executive’s duties and of the obligations of the Executive to the Company and its subsidiaries, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise: 
 (a) Base Salary. During the term hereof, the Company shall pay the Executive a base salary at the rate of Two Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars ($230,000) per annum, payable in accordance with the payroll
practices of the Company for its executives and subject to adjustment from time to time by the Board, in its sole discretion. Such base salary, as from time to time adjusted, is hereafter referred to as the “Base Salary”. 
  

 -2- 

 (b) Incentive and Bonus Compensation. During each fiscal year completed during the term hereof,
the Executive shall be eligible to earn an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”). The amount of any Annual Bonus earned hereunder shall be determined by the Board based on the achievement of performance objectives by the Executive and/or the
Company for that year, as established by the Board, and shall be payable not later than two and one half months following the end of the fiscal year for which the bonus was earned. The target amount of the Annual Bonus is 60% of Base Salary. Any
compensation paid to the Executive as an Annual Bonus shall be in addition to the Base Salary, but shall be in lieu of participation in any other plan or compensation program, whether cash or equity, that is intended to offer the opportunity for any
incentive, bonus or commission compensation, but excluding for the avoidance of doubt the Executive’s equity participation in accordance with Section 4(c) hereof. 
 (c) Equity Awards. Promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall grant to the Executive, pursuant to the
Company’s equity incentive plan, as from time to time in effect, an option to purchase a total of 96,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) at an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value of
the Common Stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Board, and otherwise on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in such equity incentive plan and as determined by the Board (such option award together with any subsequently
granted option awards, the “Option Awards”). Prior to issuing an Option Award or any shares thereunder to the Executive, the Company may require that the Executive provide such representations regarding the Executive’s sophistication
and investment intent and other such matters as the Company shall determine to be legally required or otherwise appropriate. None of the Company’s securities will be registered under applicable securities laws for the indefinite future and
there will be substantial restrictions on resale imposed by the Company’s corporate charter, the stockholders agreement and applicable law. Option Awards and any shares issued upon exercise of Option Awards shall be subject to the terms of a
stockholders agreement, as from time to time in effect (the “Stockholders Agreement”). 
 (d) Vacations. During the term
hereof, the Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks of vacation per year, to be taken at such times and intervals as shall be determined by the Executive, subject to the reasonable business needs of the Company and such scheduling
procedure as the Company may from time to time require. Vacation shall otherwise be governed by the policies of the Company, as in effect from time to time. 
 (e) Employee Benefit Plans. During the term hereof and subject to any contribution therefor generally required of executives of the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in any and all
Employee Benefit Plans from time to time in effect for executives of the Company generally, except to the extent such plans are duplicative of benefits otherwise provided to the Executive under this Agreement (e.g., severance pay). Such
participation shall be subject to the terms of the applicable plan documents and generally applicable Company policies. The Company may alter, modify, add to or delete its Employee Benefit Plans at any time as it, in its sole judgment, determines to
be appropriate, without recourse by the Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, “Employee Benefit Plan” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 3(3) of ERISA, as amended from time to time. 
  

 -3- 

 (f) Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Executive for all reasonable,
customary and necessary business expenses incurred or paid by the Executive in the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder, subject to any maximum annual limit and other restrictions on such expenses set by the Board and to such
reasonable substantiation and documentation as may be specified by the Company from time to time. Any such reimbursement that would constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”), shall be made, if at all, not later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. 
 5. Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2 hereof, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate prior to the expiration of the term hereof
under the following circumstances: 
 (a) Death. In the event of the Executive’s death during the term hereof, the
Executive’s employment hereunder shall immediately and automatically terminate. In such event, the Company shall pay to the beneficiary designated by the Executive in writing or, if no beneficiary has been so designated by the Executive, to his
estate, (i) the Base Salary earned but not paid through the date of termination, (ii) pay for any vacation time earned but not used through the date of termination, (iii) any bonus compensation awarded for the fiscal year preceding
that in which termination occurs, but unpaid on the date of termination and (iv) any business expenses incurred by the Executive but un-reimbursed on the date of termination, provided that such expenses and required substantiation and
documentation are submitted within sixty (60) days of termination and that such expenses are reimbursable under Company policy (all of the foregoing, “Final Compensation”). In addition, the Company shall pay to the Executive’s
beneficiary designated by the Executive in writing or, if no beneficiary has been so designated by the Executive, to his estate an annual bonus for the fiscal year in which termination occurs, determined by multiplying the target Annual Bonus the
Executive would have been eligible to receive had he continued employment through the last day of the fiscal year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days he was employed during the fiscal year, through the date of termination,
and the denominator of which is 365 (a “Pro-Rated Annual Bonus”). Such Pro-Rated Annual Bonus will be payable at the time annual bonuses are paid to Company executives generally under its executive incentive plan. Further, the Board shall
cause any portion of any Option Awards granted to Executive by the Company in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise that remains unvested on the date of termination hereunder to vest on the date the Executive’s employment terminates
(together, the “Accelerated Awards”). Such Accelerated Awards shall be granted to the Executive’s beneficiary designated by the Executive in writing or, if no beneficiary has been so designated by the Executive, to his estate and
shall otherwise be governed by the terms of the applicable award and plan documents. In the event of termination hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive under this Section 5(a) shall constitute the entire
obligation of the Company to the Executive. 
 (b) Disability. 
 (i) The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder, upon notice to the Executive, in the event that the Executive
becomes disabled 

  

 -4- 

 
through any illness, injury, accident or condition of either a physical or psychological nature and, as a result, is unable to perform substantially all of
his duties and responsibilities hereunder, notwithstanding the provision of any reasonable accommodation, for ninety (90) days during any period of three hundred and sixty-five (365) consecutive calendar days. In the event of such
termination, the Company shall pay the Executive all Final Compensation. In addition, the Company will pay to the Executive a Pro-Rated Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which termination occurs, payable at the time annual bonuses are paid to
Company executives generally under its executive incentive plan or, if later, on the tenth (10th) business day following the later of the
effective date of the release of claims in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Employee Release”) or the date it is received by the Chair of the Board. Further, the Board shall cause any portion of any Option Award granted to
Executive by the Company in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise that remains unvested on the date of termination hereunder (the “Accelerated Option”) to vest on the date the Executive’s employment terminates, and the Executive
may exercise the Accelerated Option as of the date immediately following the later of (i) the effective date of the Employee Release or (ii) the date that the Chair of the Board receives the Employee Release, signed by the Executive.
Except for the payment of Final Compensation, any obligation of the Company to the Executive hereunder, however, is conditioned upon the Executive signing a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of the Executive’s
employment hereunder and by the deadline specified therein, and returning it to the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment. In the event of termination hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts
that may be due the Executive under this Section 5(b) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive. 
 (ii) The Board may designate another employee to act in the Executive’s place during any period of the Executive’s disability. Notwithstanding any such designation, the Executive shall continue to receive the Base Salary in
accordance with Section 4(a) and benefits in accordance with Section 4(e), to the extent permitted by the then-current terms of the applicable benefit plans, until the Executive becomes eligible for disability income benefits under the
Company’s disability income plan or until the termination of his employment, whichever shall first occur. 
 (iii) While
receiving disability income payments under the Company’s disability income plan, the Executive shall not be entitled to receive any Base Salary under Section 4(a) hereof, but shall continue to participate in Company benefit plans in
accordance with Section 4(e) and the terms of such plans, until the termination of his employment. 
 (iv) If any
question shall arise as to whether during any period the Executive is disabled through any illness, injury, accident or condition of either a physical or psychological nature so as to be unable to perform substantially all of his duties and
responsibilities hereunder, the Executive may, and at the request of the Company shall, submit to a medical examination by a physician selected by the Company to whom the Executive or his duly appointed guardian, if any, has no reasonable 

  

 -5- 

 
objection to determine whether the Executive is so disabled and such determination shall for the purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the issue. If
such question shall arise and the Executive shall fail to submit to such medical examination, the Company’s determination of the issue shall be binding on the Executive. 
 (c) By the Company for Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause at any time upon written notice to the
Executive setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such Cause. The following, as determined by the Board in its reasonable judgment, shall constitute Cause for termination: 
 (i) fraud, embezzlement or other material dishonesty with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates; 
 (ii) the Executive’s breach of Section 3(c), 7, 8, 9, 10 or 12 hereof or of any fiduciary duty of loyalty owed to the Company or
any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that with respect to a breach of Section 3(c) hereof, “Cause” shall not exist until the Company delivers to Executive written notice of such breach, specifying the nature of the breach, and
Executive fails to cure such breach within thirty days of delivery of such written notice; or 
 (iii) commission of a felony
or other crime involving moral turpitude. 
 Upon the giving of notice of termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause, the Company
shall have no further obligation to the Executive, other than for Final Compensation. 
 (d) By the Company Other than for Cause. The
Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder other than for Cause at any time upon notice to the Executive. In the event of such termination, in addition to Final Compensation, then until the conclusion of the period of twelve
(12) months following the date of termination (the “Severance Pay Period”), the Company shall pay the Executive the Base Salary at the rate in effect on the date of termination and, subject to any employee contribution applicable to
the Executive on the date of termination, shall continue to contribute to the premium cost of the Executive’s participation in the Company’s group medical and dental plans, provided that the Executive is entitled to continue such
participation under applicable law and plan terms. In addition, the Company shall pay the Executive a bonus (the “Termination Bonus”) equal to the lesser of (i) 60% of the Executive’s Base Salary in effect on the date of
termination, or (ii) the Annual Bonus paid to the Executive in respect of the immediately preceding fiscal year (or if no such Annual Bonus was paid to the Executive in respect of the preceding fiscal year, $0). The Termination Bonus shall be
payable at the time during the Severance Pay Period that annual bonuses are paid to Company executives generally under its executive incentive plan, provided, however, that no Termination Bonus payment shall be made until the later of the effective
date of the Employee Release or the date the Employee Release, signed by the Executive, is received by the Chair of the Board. The Base Salary payment to which the Executive is entitled hereunder shall be payable in accordance with the normal
payroll practices of the Company and will begin at the Company’s next regular payroll period which is at least five business days following the later of the effective date of the Employee Release or the date the Employee Release, signed by the

  

 -6- 

 
Executive, is received by the Chair of the Board, but shall be retroactive to the next business day following the date of termination. In the event of
termination hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive under this Section 5(d) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive and, except for Final Compensation, any obligation of the
Company to the Executive hereunder is conditioned upon the Executive signing a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder and by the deadline specified therein and returning it to the
Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment. 
 (e) By the Executive for Good Reason. The
Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason if (1) the Executive provides written notice to the Company setting forth in reasonable detail the condition giving rise to the Good Reason not later than 60 days following the
date on which the Executive first obtains knowledge of the occurrence of the condition, (2) the Company fails to remedy such condition within 30 days (or ten business days in the case of an inadvertent failure as contemplated by clause
(ii) below) of receipt of such written notice, and (3) such termination of employment by the Executive for Good Reason occurs within 30 days of the expiration of the 30 day period referred to in clause (2) above. The following
conditions arising without the Executive’s prior written consent shall constitute Good Reason for termination by the Executive: 
 (i) material diminution, without his consent (not to be unreasonably withheld), in the nature or scope of the Executive’s responsibilities, duties or authority attendant to the Executive’s position, other than as is materially
consistent with the Executive’s assignment to another executive position in accordance with Section 3(a) hereof; provided, however, that the Company’s failure to continue the Executive’s appointment or election as a director or
officer of any of its subsidiaries, a change in reporting relationships resulting from a Change of Control, any diminution of the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any sale or transfer of equity, property or other assets of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or, during the first twelve months following a Change of Control, any diminution in Executive’s title or duties, including but not limited to a change in reporting relationships, whether or not materially
consistent with Section 3(a) hereof, shall not constitute “Good Reason”; or 
 (ii) material failure of the
Company to provide the Executive the Base Salary in accordance with the terms of Section 4(a) hereof, excluding an inadvertent failure which is cured within ten business days following notice from the Executive specifying in detail the nature
of such failure; or 
 (iii) Executive is required to relocate his business office to a place more than 30 miles from both
Dallas, Texas and the Company’s existing office in Plano, Texas. 
 In the event of termination in accordance with this Section 5(e), then the
Executive will be entitled to the same pay and benefits he would have been entitled to receive had the Executive been terminated by the Company other than for Cause in accordance with Section 5(d) above; provided that the Executive satisfies
all conditions to such entitlement, including without 

  

 -7- 

 
limitation signing and return of a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder and by the
deadline specified therein and returning it to the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment. In the event of termination hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive
under this Section 5(e) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive and, except for Final Compensation, any obligation of the Company to the Executive hereunder is conditioned upon the Executive signing a timely and
effective Employee Release in accordance with the timing requirements set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (f) By the
Executive Other than for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder at any time upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Company. In the event of termination of the Executive pursuant to this Section 5(f), the
Board may elect to waive the period of notice, or any portion thereof, and, if the Board so elects, the Company will pay the Executive his Base Salary for the first thirty (30) days of the notice period (or for any remaining portion of that
period). The Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive, other than for any Final Compensation due to him. 
 (g) Upon a
Change of Control. 
 (i) If a Change of Control occurs hereafter and within twelve months following such Change of
Control, the Company terminates the Executive’s employment other than for Cause or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, then, in lieu of any payments to or on behalf of the Executive under Section 5(d) or
Section 5(e) hereof, and provided that the Executive signs a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of employment, within ten business days following the later of the effective date of the Employee Release or the date the
Employee Release, signed by the Executive, is received by the Chair of the Board, the Company shall pay (A) all Final Compensation; (B) a lump sum payment to the Executive equal to the current annual Base Salary; (C) the full cost of
the Executive’s continued participation in the Company’s group health and dental insurance plans for so long as the Executive remains entitled to continue such participation under applicable law, to a maximum of twelve (12) months;
and (D) a lump sum amount to the Executive equal to the Termination Bonus. In addition, the Board shall cause the Accelerated Option to vest on the date the Executive’s employment terminates, and the Executive may exercise the Accelerated
Option as of the date immediately following the later of (i) the effective date of the Employee Release or (ii) the date that the Chair of the Board receives the Employee Release, signed by the Executive. In the event of termination
hereunder, payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive under this Section 5(g) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive and, except for Final Compensation, any obligation of the Company to
the Executive hereunder is conditioned upon the Executive signing a timely and effective Employee Release following termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder and by the deadline specified therein and returning it to the Company within
thirty (30) calendar days of the date of termination of employment. 
  

 -8- 

 (ii) “Change of Control” means the occurrence hereafter of any of the
following: 
 (1) the sale, lease or transfer (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related
transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any Person other than one or more Permitted Holders; 
 (2) the Board’s adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; 
 (3) the acquisition by (x) any Person (other than one or more Permitted Holders and other than in connection with the initial public
offering of the Company’s Common Stock) or (y) any Persons (other than one or more Permitted Holders and other than in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock) that together (A) are a group
(within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3), Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision) or (B) are acting, for purposes of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities, as a group (within the meaning of Rule
13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision), in a single transaction or in a related series of transactions, by way of merger, consolidation or other business combination or purchase of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, or any successor provision), of more than 50% or more of the total voting power of the Common Stock of the Company (or the surviving company of such merger, consolidation or other business combination transaction,
as applicable); or 
 (4) the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board (or the board of directors of the
surviving company in any merger, consolidation or other business combination transaction) cease to be Continuing Directors. 
 (h)
Post-Agreement Employment. In the event the Executive remains in the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries following termination of this Agreement, by the expiration of the term hereof or otherwise, then such employment shall be at
will. 
 6. Effect of Termination. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply to any termination, whether pursuant to
Section 5 or otherwise. 
 (a) Payment by the Company of any amounts that may be due the Executive, in each case under the applicable
termination provision of Section 5 shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive. The Executive shall promptly give the Company notice of all facts necessary for the Company to determine the amount and duration of its
obligations in connection with any termination pursuant to Section 5(d), 5(e) or 5(g) hereof. 
  

 -9- 

 (b) Except for any right the Executive has to continue participation in the Company’s medical and
dental plans pursuant to COBRA or any successor law, benefits shall terminate pursuant to the terms of the applicable benefit plans based on the date of termination of the Executive’s employment without regard to any continuation of Base Salary
or other payment to the Executive following such date of termination. 
 (c) Provisions of this Agreement shall survive any termination if so
provided herein or if necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of other surviving provisions, including without limitation the obligations of the Executive under Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof. The obligation of the Company to make payments to
or on behalf of the Executive under Section 5(b), 5(d), 5(e) or 5(g) hereof is expressly conditioned upon the Executive’s continued full performance of obligations under Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof. The Executive recognizes that, except as
expressly provided in Section 5(b), 5(d), 5(e) or 5(g), no compensation is earned after termination of employment. 
 7. Confidential
Information. 
 (a) The Executive acknowledges that the Company and its subsidiaries continually develop Confidential Information and that
the Executive may develop Confidential Information for the Company or its subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries promise to provide the Executive with Confidential Information to enable the Executive to perform his duties and
responsibilities hereunder during the course of his employment. The Executive acknowledges that the disclosure of such Confidential Information would be harmful to the Company and its subsidiaries, including without limitation if such Confidential
Information were made known to any Person or entity engaged in business activities that are in competition with the Company and/or its subsidiaries. The Executive will comply with the policies and procedures of the Company for protecting
Confidential Information and shall not disclose to any Person or use, other than as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of his duties and responsibilities to the Company and its subsidiaries, any Confidential Information
obtained by the Executive incident to his employment or other association with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Executive understands that this restriction shall continue to apply after his employment terminates, regardless of the reason
for such termination. 
 (b) All documents, records, tapes and other media of every kind and description relating to the business, present or
otherwise, of the Company or its subsidiaries and any copies, in whole or in part, thereof (the “Documents”), whether or not prepared by the Executive, shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The
Executive shall safeguard all Documents and shall surrender to the Company at the time his employment terminates, or at such earlier time or times as the Board or its designee may specify, all Documents then in the Executive’s possession or
control. 
 8. Assignment of Rights to Intellectual Property. The Executive shall promptly and fully disclose all Intellectual
Property to the Company. The Executive hereby assigns and agrees 

  

 -10- 

 
to assign to the Company (or as otherwise directed by the Company) the Executive’s full right, title and interest in and to all Intellectual Property.
The Executive agrees to execute any and all applications for domestic and foreign patents, copyrights or other proprietary rights and to do such other acts (including without limitation the execution and delivery of instruments of further assurance
or confirmation) requested by the Company to assign the Intellectual Property to the Company and to permit the Company to enforce any patents, copyrights or other proprietary rights to the Intellectual Property. The Executive will not charge the
Company for time spent in complying with these obligations. All copyrightable works that the Executive creates shall be considered “work made for hire”. 
 9. Restricted Activities. The Executive acknowledges the highly competitive nature of the industry in which the Company and its subsidiaries are involved, and agrees that during his employment with the Company,
he will have access to the Confidential Information of the Company and its subsidiaries, will benefit from the Company’s goodwill and will obtain a competitive advantage as to the Company, its subsidiaries, customers and prospective customers
and employees. The Company agrees, in consideration of the Executive’s acceptance of the restrictions set forth below, to grant the Executive access to trade secrets and other Confidential Information of the Company and its Affiliates and to
the Company’s valuable business relationships and goodwill. The Executive agrees that some restrictions on his activities during and after his employment therefore are necessary to protect the goodwill, Confidential Information and other
legitimate interests of the Company and its subsidiaries. 
 (a) While the Executive is employed by the Company and during the twelve
(12) months immediately following termination thereof (in the aggregate, the “Non-Competition Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, partner, investor, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or
otherwise, engage in any business that owns or operates, directly or indirectly, any long-term acute care hospital, including without limitation any facility that meets or intends to meet the requirements in 42 C.F.R. §412.23(e) (or any
successor law, rule or regulation relating to long-term acute care hospitals) to qualify as a long-term care hospital, or undertake any planning for any such business. Specifically, but without limiting the foregoing, the Executive agrees not to
engage in any manner in any activity that is directly or indirectly competitive or potentially competitive with the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries as conducted at any time during the Executive’s employment. Restricted
activity includes without limitation accepting employment or a consulting position with any Person who is, or at any time within twelve (12) months prior to termination of the Executive’s employment has been, an affiliated hospital, a
service provider, or a supplier to the Company or any of its subsidiaries. For the purposes of this Section 9, the business of the Company and its subsidiaries shall include all Services and the Executive’s undertaking shall encompass all
items, products and services that may be used in substitution for Services. 
 (b) The Executive agrees that, during his employment with the
Company, he will not undertake any outside activity, whether or not competitive with the business of the Company or its subsidiaries, that could reasonably give rise to a conflict of interest or otherwise interfere with his duties and obligations to
the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 
  

 -11- 

 (c) The Executive further agrees that during the Non-Competition Period, the Executive will not hire or
attempt to hire any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, assist in such hiring by any Person, encourage any such employee to terminate his or her relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or solicit or encourage any
customer or vendor of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate or diminish its relationship with them, or, in the case of a customer, to conduct with any Person any business or activity which such customer conducts or could conduct with
the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 
 10. Notification Requirement. Until ninety (90) days after the conclusion of the
Non-Competition Period, the Executive shall give notice to the Company of each new business activity he plans to undertake, at least thirty (30) days prior to beginning any such activity. Such notice shall state the name and address of the
Person for whom such activity is undertaken and the nature of the Executive’s business relationship(s) and position(s) with such Person. The Executive shall provide the Company with such other pertinent information concerning such business
activity as the Company may reasonably request in order to determine the Executive’s continued compliance with his obligations under Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof. 
 11. Enforcement of Covenants. The Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read and considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed upon him pursuant to Sections
7, 8 and 9 hereof. The Executive agrees that said restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company and its subsidiaries and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length
of time and geographic area. The Executive further acknowledges that, were he to breach any of the covenants contained in Section 7, 8 or 9 hereof, the damage to the Company and its subsidiaries would be irreparable. The Executive therefore
agrees that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach by the Executive of any of said covenants, without having to post
bond. The parties further agree that, in the event that any provision of Section 7, 8 or 9 hereof shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great a time, too large a
geographic area or too great a range of activities, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. 
 12. Conflicting Agreements. The Executive hereby represents and warrants that the execution of this Agreement and the performance of his obligations hereunder will not breach or be in conflict with any other
agreement to which the Executive is a party or is bound and that the Executive is not now subject to any covenants against competition or similar covenants or any court order or other legal obligation that would affect the performance of his
obligations hereunder. The Executive will not disclose to or use on behalf of the Company any proprietary information of a third party without such party’s consent. 
 13. Certain Expenses. In the event that the Executive brings any Claim against the Company in an action, suit or other proceeding in law or in equity to enforce a right granted to him under this Agreement, and
prevails on any such Claim, resulting in the award of judgment in favor of the Executive on the Claim, the Company, upon demand of the Executive, shall pay all 

  

 -12- 

 
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Executive in pursuing such Claim. In the event the Executive fails to obtain a judgment in his
favor on any Claim, all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Executive in pursuing such Claim shall be paid by the Executive. For the purposes of this Section 13, Claim shall refer to any single claim or count in law or
in equity. 
 14. Definitions. Words or phrases which are initially capitalized or are within quotation marks shall have the meanings
provided in this Section and as provided elsewhere herein. For purposes of this Agreement, the following definitions apply:

unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 18. Waiver. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of either party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this

in all respects by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. 
 26. Application of
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. 
 (a) The compensation, benefits, and other payments described in this Agreement are
intended either to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the treasury regulations and other guidance issued thereunder, as in effect from time to time, to the extent they are subject to Code Section 409A, or to be exempt
from such requirements, regulations and guidance (where an exemption is available), and shall be construed accordingly. For purposes of Code Section 409A, all references herein to termination of employment or similar terms, when used in a
context that bears upon the payment or timing of payment of any amounts or benefits that constitute or could constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, shall be construed to require a
“separation from service” (as that term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)) from the Company and from all other corporations and trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single “service
recipient” with the Company under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(3). The Company may, but need not, elect in writing, subject to the applicable limitations under Code Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed
in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) for purposes of determining whether a “separation from service” has occurred. Any such written election shall be deemed part of this Agreement. In addition, each payment made 

  

 -15- 

 
under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a
right to a series of separate payments. In no event may the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if, at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company the Executive is a “specified employee” (as hereinafter defined), any and all amounts
payable in connection with such separation from service that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and that would (but for this sentence) be
payable within six months following such separation from service, shall instead be paid in a lump sum on the first payroll date after the date that follows the Executive’s separation from service by six (6) months, or, if the Executive
dies before such payment, within sixty (60) days after the Executive’s death. For purposes of this Section 26(b), “specified employee” means an individual determined by the Company to be a specified employee as defined in
subsection (a)(2)(B)(i) of Code Section 409A. The Company may, but need not, elect in writing, subject to the applicable limitations under Code Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(i) for purposes of determining “specified employee” status. Any such written election shall be deemed part of this Agreement.
