This Restricted Stock Award Agreement (“Award Agreement”) is made between Exact Sciences Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) and you (“Grantee”).

The Company sponsors the 2019 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).  The Plan and a Prospectus describing the Plan (the “Prospectus”) have been delivered to you.  The Plan is also available upon request (and is publicly filed), and its terms and provisions are incorporated herein by reference.  When used herein, the terms which are defined in the Plan shall have the meanings given to them in the Plan, as modified herein (if applicable).

The Award described in this Award Agreement is for the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock shown above (the “Shares”). You and the Company mutually covenant and agree as follows:

1. The Award of the Shares is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Award Agreement.  You acknowledge having read the Plan and Prospectus and agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Award Agreement. 

2. You agree that, upon request, you will furnish a letter agreement providing that you will not distribute or resell any of said Shares in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that you will indemnify and hold the Company harmless against all liability for any such violation and that you will accept all liability for any such violation.

3. The Shares shall vest in accordance with Exhibit A attached hereto.  Until they become vested, the Shares shall be held by the Company.  Vested Shares shall be delivered to you as soon as practicable following the applicable date of vesting.  In that regard, you agree that you shall comply with (or provide adequate assurance as to future compliance with) all applicable securities laws and income tax laws as determined by the Company as a condition precedent to the delivery of the Shares.  While the Shares are held by the Company, you shall not have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of such Shares or any interest therein.

4. In accordance with Section 10.3 of the Plan, you shall have the right to receive dividends on the Shares and to vote the Shares prior to vesting.

5. You acknowledge and agree that upon your Separation from Service resulting in the forfeiture of any unvested Shares in accordance with paragraph 3 above and Exhibit A attached hereto, (i) your right to vote and to receive cash dividends on, and all other rights, title or interest in, to or with respect to, unvested Shares shall automatically, without further act, terminate and (ii) the unvested Shares shall be returned to the Company. You hereby irrevocably appoint (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the Company as your agent and attorney-in-fact to take any necessary or appropriate action to cause the Shares to be returned to the Company, including without limitation executing and delivering stock powers and instruments of transfer, making endorsements and/or making, initiating or issuing instructions or entitlement orders, all in your name and on your behalf.  You hereby ratify and approve all acts done by the Company as such attorney-in-fact.  Without 

limiting the foregoing, you expressly acknowledge and agree that any transfer agent for the Shares is fully authorized and protected in relying on, and shall incur no liability in acting on, any documents, instruments, endorsements, instructions, orders or communications from the Company in connection with the Shares or the transfer thereof, and that any such transfer agent is a third party beneficiary of this Award Agreement.

6. The existence of this Award shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

7. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to this option or future Awards that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means.  You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.  Any notice which either party hereto may be required or permitted to give to the other shall be in writing and may be delivered personally, by interoffice mail, by fax, by electronic mail or other electronic means, or via a postal service, postage prepaid, to such electronic mail or postal address and directed to such person the Company may notify you of from time to time; and to you at your electronic mail or postal address as shown on the records of the Company from time to time, or at such other electronic mail or postal address as you, by notice to the Company, may designate in writing from time to time.

8. Regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax, payroll tax or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items owed by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the grant of Shares, including the grant and vesting of the Shares, the subsequent sale of such Shares and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award Agreement to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items.  

9.  In the event any provision of this Award Agreement shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Award Agreement, and the Award Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.  This Award Agreement together with any applicable provisions of any service agreement constitute the final understanding between you and the Company regarding the Shares; provided, in the event of any conflict between the terms of a service agreement and this Award Agreement, the terms of the service agreement govern.  Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Shares are superseded. 

10. If any of the Company’s financial statements are required to be restated, the Company may recover all or a portion of this or any other Award made to you under the Plan with respect to any fiscal year of the Company the financial results of which are negatively affected by such restatement.  The amount to be recovered shall be the amount, as determined by the Committee, by which the affected Award exceeds the amount that would have been payable had the financial statements been initially filed as restated.  In no event shall the amount to be recovered by the Company be less than the amount required to be repaid or recovered as a matter of law.  This Award and any other Award, amount or benefit received under the Plan shall be subject to potential cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback or other action in accordance with the terms of any applicable Company clawback policy or any applicable law, as may be in effect from time to time.  You hereby acknowledge and consent to the Company’s application, implementation and enforcement of any applicable Company clawback policy and any provision of applicable law relating to cancellation, recoupment, rescission or payback of compensation that may apply to you, whether adopted prior to or following the date of any Award made to you under the Plan.  The Company may take such actions as may be necessary to effectuate any such policy or applicable law, without further consideration or action. In addition, you acknowledge and agree 

that you are subject to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, which may be found in the Company’s Employee Handbook.  To the extent allowed by applicable law, if it is determined at any time that you have engaged in any transactions involving the Company’s common stock in violation of the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, the Company will be entitled to apply this paragraph 10 to cause the cancellation, recoupment, rescission, or payback of the Award or any amount of benefit received pursuant to the Award.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Award Agreement to be executed by its duly authorized officer, and you have hereunto set your hand, all as of the Grant Date stated above.

If (1) you do not accept your Award Agreement through the online acceptance process within 120 days following the Grant Date (the “Deadline”), and (2) you do not provide written notice to the Company of your rejection of the Award Agreement by the Deadline, then the Company will automatically accept the Award Agreement on your behalf.

Exhibit 4(a)9
DESCRIPTION OF ENTERGY CORPORATION’S SECURITIES
REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
References in this exhibit to “we,” “us,” or “our” are to Entergy Corporation, and does not include our subsidiaries.
As of February 21, 2020, the only security registered by us under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is our common stock, par value $0.01.
The following descriptions of our common stock and the relevant provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws are summaries and are qualified by reference to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws that are filed as exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K to which this is filed as an exhibit. The following also summarizes certain applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) and that summary is qualified by reference to the DGCL.
General
Our authorized capital stock consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. 
Dividend Rights
We will pay dividends on our common stock as determined by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Our ability to pay dividends depends primarily upon the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or distributions or otherwise transfer funds to us. Various financing arrangements, charter provisions and regulatory requirements may impose certain restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to transfer funds to us in the form of cash dividends or distributions, loans or advances.
Voting Rights
Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held by them on all matters submitted to our shareholders. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Unless otherwise required by law, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented at a shareholder meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders. At a meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, directors are elected by a majority of votes cast with respect to such director; provided, however, that, if the number of nominees is greater than the number of directors who will be elected, the nominees receiving a plurality of the votes cast will be elected as directors.
Liquidation Rights
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs, voluntarily or involuntarily, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive the remainder, if any, of our assets after the payment of all our debts and liabilities.

Preemptive Rights
The holders of our common stock do not have a preemptive right to purchase shares of our common stock or securities convertible into such shares nor are they liable for future capital calls or to assessments by us.
Listing
Our common stock is listed under the “ETR” symbol on both the New York Stock Exchange and the NYSE Chicago.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Equiniti Trust Company, doing business as EQ Shareowner Services.
Certain Anti-Takeover Effects 
General. Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the DGCL could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing an acquisition of control of us by means of a tender offer, a proxy fight, open market purchases or otherwise in a transaction not approved by our board of directors. The provisions described below may reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited proposal for the restructuring or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or an unsolicited takeover attempt which is unfair to our shareholders. 
Our board of directors has no present intention to introduce additional measures that might have an anti-takeover effect; however, our board of directors expressly reserves the right to introduce these measures in the future. 
Business Combinations. Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions, including if, prior to such time, the board of directors approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. “Business combinations” include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the “interested stockholder.” Subject to various exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within the prior three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. The restrictions on business combinations with interested stockholders contained in Section 203 do not apply to a corporation whose certificate of incorporation or bylaws contains a provision expressly electing not to be governed by the statute; however, neither our certificate of incorporation nor our bylaws contain a provision electing to “opt-out” of Section 203.
Special Meetings. Pursuant to the DGCL, a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the board of directors or by any other person authorized to do so in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that special meetings of stockholders may only be called by: our board of directors; the Chairman of our board of directors; a majority of the members of the entire Executive Committee of the board of directors; the Chief Executive Officer; or the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting.
Advance Notice Requirements for Shareholder Nominations and Proposals. Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals for annual meetings and the nomination 

of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of our board of directors or a committee of the board of directors. A stockholder who wishes to bring a matter before a meeting must comply with our advance notice requirements and provide us with certain information. Additionally, vacancies and newly created directorships may be filled only by a vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even in the case that such directors may represent less than a quorum.
