 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS; TERMINATION OF

 Section 6.1 Awards Formula. On or following the Effective Date, each Nonemployee Director shall receive (i) a Restricted Stock Award for
8,000 shares of Common Stock for his or her initial year as a Nonemployee Director, provided that such directorship commences on or after the Effective Date, (ii) a Restricted Stock Award 

  

 3 

 
for 4,000 shares of Common Stock for each year commencing on or after the Effective Date during which he or she continues to serve as a Nonemployee Director
and (iii) in the event that the Chairman of the Board is also a Nonemployee Director, in lieu of any other Restricted Stock Award to be granted hereunder, such director shall receive a Restricted Stock Award for 12,000 shares of Common Stock
for each year he or she serves in such capacity. In an individual’s initial year as a Nonemployee Director, it is intended that he or she shall only receive the Restricted Stock Award referred to in clause (i) above and not both of the
Restricted Stock Awards referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above. 
 Section 6.2 Termination of Nonemployee Director’s
Board Membership. If a Holder’s membership on the Board is terminated pursuant to his or her (i) removal by the Board for Cause, (ii) not being renominated for Board membership for the next succeeding year for Cause,
(iii) being nominated for Board membership for the next succeeding year but not being reelected for Board membership for such year by the Company’s shareholders, or (iv) resignation from the Board within six (6) months of his or
her receipt of the applicable Restricted Stock Award, in any such case, prior to the actual or deemed satisfaction and/or lapse of the Transfer Restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock Award, then such Restricted Stock shall immediately be
canceled, and the Holder (and such Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in and with respect to any such Restricted Stock. In addition, should a Holder die or become Totally
and Permanently Disabled, all of his or her Restricted Stock shall thereupon become fully vested and the Transfer Restrictions applicable to his or her Restricted Stock Award shall immediately be cancelled. 
 Section 6.3 Special Termination Rule. Except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of the applicable Restricted Stock Award Agreement, and
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VI, if a Holder’s status as a Nonemployee Director shall terminate other than for Cause, if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall become an
Employee, or such Holder’s rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as
if such Holder had been an Employee for the entire period during which such Restricted Stock Award or portion thereof had been outstanding. Should the Committee effect such determination with respect to such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan,
such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her employment or Nonemployee Director status had terminated until such time as his or her Employee status shall terminate, in which case his or her Restricted Stock Award, as it may have been reduced in
connection with the Holder’s becoming an Employee, shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2. Should a Holder’s status as an Employee terminate, if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall
again become a Nonemployee Director, such Holder’s rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to the extent determined by the Committee in
its sole discretion, as if such Holder had been a Nonemployee Director, as applicable, for the entire period during which such Restricted Stock Award or portion thereof had been outstanding, and, should the Committee effect such determination with
respect to such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her Employee status had terminated until such time as his or her Nonemployee Director status, as applicable, shall terminate, in which case his or
her Restricted Stock Award shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 TERMS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS 
 Section 7.1 Restriction Period. All Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to a Restriction Period pursuant to which the Transfer Restrictions shall lapse, provided that the Holder shall continue to be a Nonemployee Director, upon
the earlier of (a) the one-year anniversary of the date on which the applicable Restricted Stock Award was made, or (b) the date of the next meeting of the shareholders of the Company at which directors are elected, following the date on
which the applicable Restricted Stock Award was made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder resigns from the Board more than six (6) months after his or her receipt of a Restricted Stock Award, then the Transfer Restrictions shall lapse
with respect to all of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Restricted Stock Award. 
  

 4 

 Section 7.2 Other Terms and Conditions. Common Stock awarded pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award

exercise price of any Option shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date the Option is granted. 
 (ii) Subject to the discretion of the Committee, the term of an Option shall not exceed ten (10) years from the date it is granted.

 (b) A Holder who ceases to be an employee, officer, Director or consultant for any reason shall have such
period of time following cessation of service to exercise any then exercisable Options as is determined by the Committee and set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Options, after which period all such Options shall terminate and be of no
further force or effect. Any Options that are not exercisable at the time a Holder ceases to be an employee, officer, Director or consultant shall terminate at such time and be of no further force or effect. 
 Section 8.2 Method of Exercise. The exercise of an Option shall be made only be delivery of a written notice (in person or by first class mail to
the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s principal executive office) specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased and accompanied by full payment therefore and otherwise in accordance with the Option Agreement pursuant
to which the Option was granted. The exercise price for any shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be paid in full upon such exercise (i) in cash, by check or (ii) at the discretion of the Committee
and upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall approve, by surrender of shares of Common Stock, (iii) subject to prior written approval 

  

 5 

 
of the Committee, by directing the Company to subtract from the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Option, that number of shares of Common Stock
having a Fair Market Value equal to the purchase price (or portion thereof) required to be paid upon such exercise, (iv) solely at a time when the shares of Common Stock are publicly-traded, pursuant to a “cashless exercise” of the
Option pursuant to the establishment of procedures whereby the Holder, by a properly executed written notice, directs (A) an immediate market sale or margin loan respecting all or a part of the shares of Common Stock to which he is entitled
upon exercise pursuant to an extension of credit by the Company to the Holder, (B) the delivery of the shares of Common Stock from the Company directly to a brokerage firm and (C) the delivery of the Option price from sale or margin loan
proceeds from the brokerage firm directly to the Company, or (v) by any combination thereof. Any shares of Common Stock transferred to the Company as payment of the exercise price shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the day preceding
the date of exercise of such Option. If requested by the Committee, the Holder shall deliver the Option Agreement evidencing the Option to the Secretary of the Company who shall endorse thereon a notation of such exercise and return such Option
Agreement to the Holder. 
 Section 8.3 Option Agreements. At the time any Option is granted under this Article VIII, the Company and
the Holder shall enter into an Option Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated hereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.

 ARTICLE IX 
 RECAPITALIZATION OR
REORGANIZATION 
 Section 9.1 Adjustments to Common Stock. The shares with respect to which Options and Restricted Stock Awards
may be granted under the Plan are shares of Common Stock as presently constituted; provided, however, that if, and whenever, prior to the exercise, expiration or distribution to the Holder of an Option or Restricted Stock Award
theretofore granted, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares of Common Stock or the payment of a stock dividend on Common Stock without receipt of consideration by the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock with
respect to which such Option or Restricted Stock Award may thereafter be exercised or satisfied, as applicable, (i) in the event of an increase in the number of outstanding shares, shall be proportionately increased, and the exercise or
purchase price per share shall be proportionately reduced, and (ii) in the event of a reduction in the number of outstanding shares, shall be proportionately reduced, and the exercise or purchase price per share shall be proportionately
increased. 
 Section 9.2 Recapitalization. If the Company recapitalizes or otherwise changes its capital structure, thereafter upon
any exercise or satisfaction, as applicable, of a previously granted Option or Restricted Stock Award, the Holder shall be entitled to receive (or entitled to purchase, if applicable) under such Restricted Stock Award, in lieu of the number of
shares of Common Stock then covered by such Restricted Stock Award, the number and class of shares of stock and securities to which the Holder would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the recapitalization if, immediately prior to such
recapitalization, the Holder had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock then covered by such Restricted Stock Award. 
 Section 9.3 Other Events. In the event of changes to the outstanding Common Stock by reason of recapitalization, reorganization, mergers, consolidations, combinations, exchanges, extraordinary or special cash dividend or other
relevant corporate event or change in capitalization occurring after the date of the grant of any Option or Restricted Stock Award and not otherwise provided for under this Article IX, the Committee shall adjust any or all of (i) the number and
kind of shares of Common Stock subject to such outstanding Options and Restricted Stock Awards, (ii) the exercise or purchase price with respect to such outstanding Options and 

  

 6 

 
Restricted Stock Awards, and/or (iii) make provision for a cash payment to any Holder in an amount equal to the then difference between the exercise
price and the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock. In the event of any such change to the outstanding Common Stock, the aggregate number of shares available under the Plan may be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, the determination of
which shall be conclusive. 
 Section 9.4 Powers Not Affected. The existence of the Plan and the Options and Restricted Stock Awards
granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board or of the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change of the Company’s capital structure or
business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities ahead of or affecting Common Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of
all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding. 
 Section 9.5 No Adjustment for Certain Restricted
Stock Awards. Except as hereinabove expressly provided, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the
exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect previously granted
Options or Restricted Stock Awards, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Options or Restricted Stock Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per share, if
applicable. 
 ARTICLE X 
 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN 
 The Board in its discretion may terminate the Plan at any time with respect to any
shares for which Options or Restricted Stock Awards have not theretofore been granted. The Board shall have the right to alter or amend the Plan or any part hereof from time to time; provided, however, that no change in any Option or
Restricted Stock Award theretofore granted may be made which would materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder without the consent of the Holder. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 11.1 No Right to Option or Restricted Stock Award. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Company nor any action of the Board or the
Committee shall be deemed to give a Nonemployee Director any right to an Option or a Restricted Stock Award except as may be evidenced by an Option Agreement or a Restricted Stock Award Agreement duly executed on behalf of the Company, and then
solely to the extent and on the terms and conditions expressly set forth therein. 
 Section 11.2 No Rights Conferred. Nothing
contained in the Plan shall (i) confer upon any Nonemployee Director any right with respect to continuation of such Nonemployee Director’s membership on the Board, or (ii) interfere in any way with the right of the Board to terminate
a Nonemployee Director’s Board membership at any time. 
 Section 11.3 Other Laws. The Company shall not be obligated to issue
any Common Stock pursuant to any Option or Restricted Stock Award granted under the Plan at any time when the shares covered by such Option or Restricted Stock Award have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and under such other
state and federal laws, rules or regulations as the Company or the Committee deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel of the Company, if there is no exemption from the registration requirements of such laws, rules or regulations
available for the issuance and sale of such shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered, nor shall any cash in lieu of fractional shares be paid. 
  

 7 

 Section 11.4 No Restriction on Corporate Action. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed
to prevent the Company or any Affiliate from taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Affiliate to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Option or
Restricted Stock Award made under the Plan. No Nonemployee Director’s beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any Affiliate as a result of any such action. 
 Section 11.5 Restrictions on Transfer. No Option or Restricted Stock Award under the Plan or any Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Award
Agreement and no rights or interests herein or therein, shall or may be assigned, transferred, sold, exchanged, encumbered, pledged or otherwise hypothecated or disposed of by a Holder except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution, or (ii) by gift to any Family Member of the Holder. 
 Section 11.6 Beneficiary Designations. Each Holder may, from
time to time, name a beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be contingent or successive beneficiaries) for purposes of receiving any amount which is payable in connection with an Option or Restricted Stock Award under the Plan upon or subsequent to
the Holder’s death. Each such beneficiary designation shall serve to revoke all prior beneficiary designations, be in a form prescribed by the Company and be effective solely when filed by the Holder in writing with the Company during the
Holder’s lifetime. In the absence of any such written beneficiary designation, for purposes of the Plan, a Holder’s beneficiary shall be the Holder’s estate. 
 Section 11.7 Rule 16b-3. It is intended that, at any time when the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ,
the Plan and any Option or Restricted Stock Award made to a person subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall meet all of the requirements of Rule 16b-3. If any provision of the Plan or of any such Option or Restricted Stock Award would
disqualify the Plan or such Option or Restricted Stock Award under, or would otherwise not comply with the requirements of, Rule 16b-3, such provision or Option or Restricted Stock Award shall be construed or deemed to have been amended as necessary
to conform to the requirements of Rule 16b-3. 
 Section 11.8 Limits of Liability. Any liability of the Company with respect to an
Option or Restricted Stock Award shall be based solely upon the contractual obligations created under the Plan and the Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, as applicable. Neither the Company nor any member of the Committee shall
have any liability to any party for any action taken or not taken, in good faith, in connection with or under the Plan. 
 Section 11.9
Governing Law. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 Section 11.10 Severability of Provisions. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and
enforced as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included in the Plan.

throughout the Plan are for convenience only and shall not be given legal significance.

 Exhibit 10.3 
 ROTECH HEALTHCARE INC. 
 COMMON STOCK OPTION PLAN 
 FORM OF CEO 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

 INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION 
 THIS AGREEMENT made as of             , by and between Rotech Healthcare Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
             (the “Optionee”). 
 WITNESSETH: 

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Rotech Healthcare Inc. Common Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) for the benefit of a select group of
employees, nonemployee directors and consultants; 
 WHEREAS, due to the Optionee’s position in the Company, the Optionee is eligible
for a grant of stock options under the Plan; and 
 WHEREAS, the Board has authorized the grant to the Optionee of an Incentive Stock Option
under the Plan, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and as hereinafter provided. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises contained herein, the Company and the Optionee hereby agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Definitions. 

 Terms used in this Agreement which
are defined in the Plan shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan. 
  

	 	2.	Grant of Option. 

 Pursuant to the Board’s
authorization, an option to purchase              Shares is hereby granted to the Optionee effective             ,
for an option price per Share equal to $         (the “Option”). The Option is intended by the Board to be an Incentive Stock Option and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted on a basis
consistent with such intent. 
  

	 	3.	Exercise of Option. 

 (a) Exercisability.
Subject to Subsection (b) below and such other applicable conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, all or part of the Option may be exercised prior to its expiration to the extent it has vested; provided, however, that the Option
may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share unless such exercise is with respect to the final installment of stock subject to the Option and a fractional share (or cash in lieu thereof) must be issued to permit the Optionee to exercise completely
such final installment. Any fractional share with respect to which an installment of the Option cannot be exercised because of the limitation contained in the preceding sentence shall remain subject to the Option and shall be available for later
purchase by the Optionee in accordance with the terms hereof. 

 (b) Vesting. The Option shall vest over a period of three (3) years in twelve (12) equal
quarterly installments with vesting deemed to have commenced on                     . In the event of a termination of the Optionee’s
employment without Cause (as defined in the Optionee’s employment agreement with the Company, or the Plan to the extent the Optionee does not have an employment agreement with the Company) within 18 months following a Change in Control, the
entire unvested portion of the Option shall immediately vest as of the effective date of the termination of employment. To the extent the Optionee has an employment agreement with the Company that provides for payments upon a termination of the
Optionee’s employment for Good Reason or upon a No Fault termination (as defined in such employment agreement), then in the event of a termination of the Optionee’s employment for Good Reason or for No Fault within 18 months following a
Change of Control, the entire unvested portion of the Option shall immediately vest as of the effective date of the termination of employment. 
  

	 	4.	Method of Exercising Option. 

 (a) Notice of
Exercise. The Optionee or the Optionee’s representative may exercise the Option by giving written notice to the Company. The notice shall specify the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares for which it is being exercised and
the form of payment. The notice shall be signed by the person exercising the Option. In the event that the Option, or portion thereof, is being exercised by the representative of the Optionee, the notice shall be accompanied by proof (satisfactory
to the Company) of the representative’s right to exercise the Option. The Optionee or the Optionee’s representative shall deliver to the Company, at the time of giving the notice, payment in a form permissible under Section 5 for the
full amount of the Purchase Price. For purposes of this Agreement, “Purchase Price” shall mean the exercise price set forth in Section 2 above multiplied by the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised.

 (b) Issuance of Shares. After receiving a proper notice of exercise, the Company shall cause to be issued a certificate or
certificates for the Shares as to which the Option has been exercised, registered in the name of the person exercising the Option (or in the names of such person and his or her spouse as community property or as joint tenants with right of
survivorship). The Company shall cause such certificate or certificates to be delivered to or upon the order of the person exercising the Option. 
 (c) Withholding Taxes. In the event that the Company determines that it is required to withhold any tax as a result of the exercise of the Option, the Optionee, as a condition to the exercise of the Option, shall make arrangements
satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy all withholding requirements. The Optionee shall also make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy any withholding requirements that may arise in connection with the
vesting or disposition of Shares purchased by exercising the Option. 
  

 2 

	 	5.	Payment For Stock. 

 (a) Cash. All or part of
the Purchase Price may be paid in cash or cash equivalents. 
 (b) Surrender of Stock. All or any part of the Purchase Price may be
paid by surrendering, or attesting to the ownership of, Shares that are already owned by the Optionee. Such Shares shall be surrendered to the Company in good form for transfer and shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date when the
Option is exercised. The Optionee shall not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, Shares in payment of the purchase price if such action would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect
to the Option for financial reporting purposes. 
 (c) Exercise/Sale. All or part of the Purchase Price and any withholding taxes may
be paid by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company. 
 (d) Exercise/Pledge. All or part of the Purchase Price and any withholding taxes may be paid by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company)
of an irrevocable direction to pledge Shares to a securities broker or lender approved by the Company, as security for a loan, and to deliver all or part of the loan proceeds to the Company.

the Optionee’s employment with the Company by reason of death, Disability or retirement on or after the age of 65 of the Optionee, the Option shall expire and terminate on the termination date determined pursuant to Subsection (b) above.

 All or part of the Option may be exercised at any time before its expiration under the preceding sentence by the executors or administrators of the

the Optionee dies, the Option shall expire immediately with respect to the number of Shares for which the Option is not yet exercisable. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any of the provisions set forth herein, the exercise of the Option, or any portion thereof, after termination of the Optionee’s employment with the Company shall be subject to satisfaction of the conditions
precedent that the Optionee not breach or otherwise violate any confidentiality, non-disclosure, non-solicitation, or non-competition covenant contained in the Employment Agreement. In the event of such adjudged breach or violation, any unexercised
portion of the Option, whether vested or not, shall immediately terminate and expire. 
 (f) The Option will cease to qualify for favorable
tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent it is exercised (i) more than three (3) months after the date the Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company for any reason other than death or permanent and total disability

 (g) A transfer of the Optionee’s employment between the Company and any subsidiary of the Company, or between any subsidiaries of the Company, shall
not be deemed to be a termination of the Optionee’s employment for purposes of the Option. 
  

	 	7.	Restrictions on Transfer of Option. 

 This Agreement
and the Option shall not be transferable otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and the Option shall be exercisable, during the Optionee’s lifetime, solely by the Optionee, except on account of the Optionee’s
Disability or death.

	 	8.	Regulation by the Board. 

 This Agreement and the
Option shall be subject to any administrative procedures and rules as the Board shall adopt. All decisions of the Board upon any question arising under the Plan or under this Agreement, shall be conclusive and binding upon the Optionee and any
person or persons to whom any portion of the Option has been transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. 
  

	 	9.	Rights as a Shareholder. 

 The Optionee shall have
no rights as a shareholder with respect to Shares subject to the Option until certificates for Shares are issued to the Optionee. 
  

	 	10.	Reservation of Shares. 

 With respect to the Option,
the Company hereby agrees to at all times reserve for issuance and/or delivery upon payment by the Optionee of the Option price, such number of Shares as shall be required for issuance and/or delivery upon such payment pursuant to the Option.

  

	 	11.	Delivery of Share Certificates. 

 Within a
reasonable time after the exercise of the Option, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Optionee, his or her legal representative or his or her beneficiary, a certificate for the Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option.

  

	 	12.	Amendment. 

 The Board may amend this Agreement at
any time and from time to time; provided, however, that no amendment of this Agreement that would alter or impair any of the Optionee’s rights or obligations with respect to the Option shall be effective without the written consent of the
Optionee (unless such amendment is required in order to cause the Award hereunder to qualify as “performance-based” compensation within the meaning of Section 162 (m) of the Code and applicable interpretive authority thereunder).

  

	 	13.	Capital Changes and Business Successions. 

 It is
the purpose of this Option to encourage the Optionee to work for the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Since, for example, that might require the issuance of a stock dividend or a merger with another corporation, the purpose of
this Option would not be served if such a stock dividend, merger or similar occurrence would cause the Optionee’s rights hereunder to be diluted or terminated and thus be contrary to the Optionee’s interest. Section 3(b) of the Plan
contains extensive provisions designed to preserve options at full value in a number of contingencies. Therefore, provisions in the Plan for adjustment with respect to stock subject to options and the related provisions with respect to successors to
the business of the company are hereby made applicable hereunder and are incorporated herein by reference.

 Nothing in this Stock Option
Agreement, the grant of the Option or in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employment of the Company for any period of specific duration. 
  

	 	15.	Plan Terms. 

 The terms of the Plan are hereby
incorporated herein by reference. 
  

	 	16.	Effective Date of Grant. 

 The Option shall be
effective as of the date first written above. 
  

	 	17.	Optionee Acknowledgment. 

 By executing this
Agreement, the Optionee hereby acknowledges that he has received and read the Plan and this Agreement and that he agrees to be bound by all of the terms of both the Plan and this Agreement.
