RECITALS

The Company desires to offer to the Executive employment on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 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 Executive’s employment shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2. Term. This Agreement will continue in effect from the Effective Date until terminated in accordance with Section 5 hereof. The term of this Agreement is hereafter referred to as “the term of this Agreement” or “the term hereof”.

3. Capacity and Performance.

(a) During the term hereof, the Executive shall be employed by the Company on a full-time basis and shall serve the Company as its President. In such capacity, the Executive shall report to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), and the Executive shall have such duties as are consistent with the Executive’s position and as may from time to time be assigned to the Executive by the Board. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Executive will be in charge of all of the Company’s centers and their employees and for all clinical functions of the Company. The Chief Medical Officer of the Company, the Chief People Officer of the Company, the Chief Technology Officer of the Company, all employees involved in center operations, all sales and marketing employees and all personnel responsible for developing new sites will report to the Executive. The Chief Financial Officer of the Company, the General Counsel of the Company, all employees involved in investor relations and all personnel solely responsible for acquisitions will not report to the Executive. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Executive will take on additional responsibilities and direct reports in his first role of operations, such that, by the end of the Executive’s first nine (9) months of employment, the Executive will have responsibility for the finance, legal, investor relations and mergers and acquisitions functions, including, without limitation, having the related employees report in to the Executive.

(b) During the term hereof, the Executive shall devote substantially all of the Executive’s business time and the Executive’s reasonable best efforts, business judgment, skill and knowledge to the advancement of the business and interests of the Company and its Affiliates (as defined below) and to the discharge of the Executive’s 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, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that the Executive may, without advance consent, participate in charitable activities and passive personal investment activities, provided that such activities do not, individually or in the aggregate, interfere with the performance of the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, are not in conflict with the business interests of the Company or any of its Affiliates and do not violate Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Executive currently serves on the Board of Directors of Kepro and may continue such service subject to the foregoing limitations.

(c) During the term hereof, the Executive shall comply with all of the Company’s written policies, practices and codes of conduct applicable to the Executive’s position and made available to the Executive, as in effect from time to time.

(d) The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Executive must reside within driving distance of the Company’s headquarters in Denver, Colorado during the term hereof.

4. Compensation and Benefits. As compensation for all services performed by the Executive hereunder during the term hereof, and subject to performance of the Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Affiliates, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, the Company shall pay certain compensation and provide certain benefits to the Executive, as follows:

(a) Base Salary. During the term of this Agreement, the Company will pay the Executive an annual base salary commensurate with the Executive’s performance and experience within the compensation philosophy established by the Company; the Executive’s initial annual base salary rate will be $750,000. The Executive will be paid the Executive’s annual base salary in accordance with the normal payroll practices of the Company as in effect from time to time (but no less frequently than monthly); the Executive’s annual base salary, as from time to time adjusted, is hereafter referred to as the “Base Salary”. The Board shall review the Base Salary each year for increase, but shall not decrease the Base Salary.

(b) Annual Bonus Compensation. For each fiscal year of the Company occurring during the term hereof, beginning with the 2022 fiscal year, the Executive shall be eligible, but not entitled, to receive a discretionary annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”), targeted at one hundred percent (100%) of the Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”). The actual amount of the Annual Bonus due for a given fiscal year, if any, will be determined by the Board, acting in good faith and based on the achievement of pre-established performance criteria. The performance criteria shall be established by the Board no later than the sixtieth (60^th) day of the fiscal year and shall be communicated in writing to the Executive within fifteen (15) days of the date on which the Board establishes the performance criteria. Any Annual Bonus earned for a fiscal year shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the Board has received, reviewed and approved the applicable fiscal year’s final audited statements, and in any event no later than December 31^stof the calendar year in which such fiscal year ends. In order to receive the Annual Bonus for any fiscal year, the Executive must be employed by the Company through the last day of the fiscal year to which performance relates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Annual Bonus for the 2022 fiscal year will be prorated, based on the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the 2022 fiscal year, to reflect the Executive’s commencement of employment following the commencement of the 2022 fiscal year.

(c) Incentive Equity Grants under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Board has approved the following grants to the Executive: (i) an award of options (“Options”), with respect to a number of shares of Company common stock equal to the quotient of (A) $10,500,000 and (B) the closing price of a share of Company common stock on November 10, 2021, and (ii) an award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), with respect to a number of shares of Company common stock equal to the quotient of (A) $3,500,000 and (B) the closing price of a share of Company common stock on November 10, 2021. The Option award will be subject to an Option agreement, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto, and the RSU award will be subject to an RSU agreement, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto. Both the Option award and the RSU award will be subject to the InnovAge Holding Corp. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Omnibus Plan”), and any other restrictions and limitations generally applicable to the equity of the Company or otherwise imposed by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive’s entitlement to the foregoing Options and RSUs is subject to the Executive’s commencement of employment on the Effective Date.

(d) One-Time Sign-On Bonus. The Executive will be eligible for a one-time cash payment in the amount of $600,000, payable as soon as administratively possible following the Effective Date, but in no event later than the fourteenth (14^th) day immediately following the Effective Date, provided that either (i) the Executive is still employed with the Company on the payment date or (ii) the Executive’s employment with the Company was terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason (each, as defined below), in each case, prior to the payment date. Should the Executive terminate the Executive’s employment with the Company without Good Reason (and provided, that, such termination is not due to the Executive’s death or Disability (as defined below)), or should the Company terminate the Executive’s employment for Cause, in each case, prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Executive will be required to repay the Sign-On Bonus in full (less any taxes previously withheld).

(e) Paid Time Off. During the term hereof, the Executive shall be entitled to earn four (4) weeks (i.e., twenty (20) days) of paid time off (“PTO”) per annum (in addition to Company holidays), to be taken at such times and intervals as shall be determined by the Executive, subject to the reasonable business needs of the Company. PTO shall otherwise be governed by the policies of the Company, as in effect from time to time.

(f) Employee Benefit Plans. During the term hereof and subject to any contribution therefore generally required of similarly-situated employees of the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in any and all employee benefit plans from time to time in effect for employees of the Company generally (the “Employee Benefit Plans”), except to the extent any Employee Benefit Plan provides for benefits otherwise provided to the Executive hereunder (e.g., a severance pay plan). For the avoidance of doubt, the clause at the end of the preceding sentence shall not preclude the Executive from potentially receiving grants under the Omnibus Plan that are in addition to those specified in Section 4(c) above, in all respects as determined by the Board. Such participation shall be subject to (i) the terms of the applicable Employee Benefit Plan documents, (ii) generally applicable Company policies and (iii) the discretion of the Company or any administrative or other committee provided for under, or contemplated by, such Employee Benefit Plan.

(g) Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Executive for reasonable, customary and appropriate business expenses incurred or paid by the Executive in the performance of the Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder, subject to such reasonable substantiation and documentation and to travel and other policies as may be required by the Company from time to time.

(h) Annual Physical Exam. The Company will pay for an annual physical exam for the Executive.

5. Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits. The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate under the following circumstances:

(a) Death. In the event of the Executive’s death during the term hereof, the date of death shall be the date of termination, and the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive’s designated beneficiary or, if no beneficiary has been designated by the Executive in a notice received by the Company, to the Executive’s estate: (i) any Base Salary earned but not paid through the date of termination, (ii) pay in lieu of any PTO accrued but not used as of the date of termination, (iii) any business expenses incurred by the Executive but unreimbursed as of the date of termination, provided, that, such expenses and required substantiation and documentation are submitted no later than one hundred twenty (120) days following the date of termination, that such expenses are reimbursable under Company policy and that any such expenses subject to Section 5(g)(iv) shall be paid not later than the deadline specified therein, (iv) any Annual Bonus earned but unpaid in respect of the fiscal year completed immediately prior to the date of termination (the “Prior Year Bonus,” and all of the foregoing, payable subject to the timing limitations described herein, “Final Compensation”) and (v) a pro-rata portion of the Executive’s Annual Bonus for the year in which the termination occurs, based on the Executive’s actual performance through the date of such termination and determined in accordance with Section 4(b) hereof, with such proration determined based on the number of days the Executive was employed during the fiscal year in which such termination occurs, payable at the time specified in and in accordance with Section 4(b) hereof (the “Pro-Rata Bonus”). In the event of such termination, the Company shall have no further obligation or liability to the Executive under this Agreement, other than for payment of any Final Compensation and Pro-Rata Bonus due to the Executive. Other than business expenses described in Section 5(a)(iii), Final Compensation shall be paid to the Executive’s designated beneficiary or estate at the time prescribed by applicable law and in all events within thirty (30) days following the date of death.

(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 during the Executive’s employment hereunder 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 the Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder (notwithstanding the provision of any reasonable accommodation exclusive of the leave of absence provided hereunder) for ninety (90) consecutive days, or one hundred and eighty (180) non-consecutive days, during any period of three hundred and sixty-five (365) consecutive calendar days (“Disability”). In the event of such termination, the Company shall have no further obligation or liability to the Executive under this Agreement, other than for payment of any Final Compensation and Pro-Rata Bonus due to the Executive. Other than business expenses described in Section 5(a)(iii), Final Compensation shall be paid to the Executive at the time prescribed by applicable law and in all events within thirty (30) days following the date of termination of employment.

(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 to participate in Employee Benefit Plans in accordance with Section 4(d), to the extent permitted by the then-current terms of the applicable Employee Benefit Plans, until the Executive becomes eligible for disability income benefits under the Company’s disability income plan, if any, or until the termination of the Executive’s employment, whichever shall first occur. If the Executive receives any disability income payments under the Company’s disability income plan, the Base Salary under Section 4(a) shall be reduced by the amount of such disability income.

(iii) If any question shall arise as to whether 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 the Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder, the Executive may, and at the reasonable request of the Company shall, submit to a medical examination by a physician mutually agreed to by the Company and the Executive (or the Executive’s duly appointed guardian, if any), and such determination for the purposes of this Agreement shall be conclusive. 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 delivery of written notice to the Executive. The following, as determined in the Company’s reasonable discretion, shall constitute Cause for termination:

(i) The Executive’s failure to perform the Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company or any of its Affiliates that are consistent with Executive’s title and authorities;

(ii) The Executive’s material breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other written agreement between the Executive and the Company or any of its Affiliates, resulting in material harm to the Company or any of its Affiliates;

(iii) The Executive’s material breach of any fiduciary duty that the Executive has to the Company or any of its Affiliates;

(iv) The Executive’s gross negligence, intentional misconduct or unethical or improper behavior by the Executive resulting in material harm to the business, interests or reputation of the Company or any of its Affiliates;

(v) The Executive’s intentional or willful failure to comply with applicable PACE, Medicare or Medicaid rules or regulations;

(vi) The Executive’s failure to comply with the Company’s Code of Conduct or Corporate Compliance Program;

(vii) The Executive’s commission of a felony or any other crime involving moral turpitude; or

(viii) The Executive’s commission of conduct involving fraud, embezzlement, sexual harassment, material misappropriation of property or other substantial misconduct with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates.

Any termination of the Executive’s employment for bases set forth in clauses (i) - (iii) and (vi) shall not constitute a termination for Cause unless the Company shall have provided written notice to the Executive no later than fifteen (15) days after the Board first obtained actual knowledge of the Executive’s act or omission constituting Cause, setting forth in reasonable detail such acts or omissions, and the Executive shall have failed to cure (to the extent capable of cure) such acts or omissions within fifteen (15) days following receipt of written notice. In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause, the Company shall have no further obligation or liability to the Executive under this Agreement, other than for any Final Compensation (excluding the Prior Year Bonus) due to the Executive. Other than business expenses described in Section 5(a)(iii), Final Compensation shall be paid to the Executive at the time prescribed by applicable law and in all events within thirty (30) days following the date of termination of employment.

(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 thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Executive. If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment other than for Cause after the Effective Date, then in addition to any Final Compensation and Pro-Rata Bonus due to the Executive, the Company will (i) pay to the Executive severance pay, at the same rate as the Base Salary, for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the date of termination of the Executive’s employment, (ii) pay to the Executive an amount equal to two (2) times the Executive’s Target Bonus for the fiscal year in which such termination occurs, in substantially equal installments over the twenty-four (24)-month period following the date of termination of the Executive’s employment (clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Severance Payments”) and (iii) continue to pay, on the Executive’s behalf, the premiums required to be paid for the Executive’s continued participation in the Company’s health care benefit plan, including existing spousal or family health care coverage, if selected, for a period of eighteen (18) months following termination, unless the Executive becomes employed by another company and eligible for coverage under such company’s group health care plans, and in such instance, future payment for the health insurance premiums will cease (the “Healthcare Payments” and, collectively with the Severance Payments and the Pro-Rata Bonus, the “Severance Benefits”). Other than business expenses described in Section 5(a)(iii), Final Compensation shall be paid to the Executive at the time prescribed by applicable law and in all events within thirty (30) days following the date of termination of employment. Any obligation of the Company to provide the Severance Benefits is conditioned, however, on the Executive signing and returning to the Company (without revoking) a timely and effective general release of claims in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Release of Claims”), all of which (including the lapse of the period for revoking the Release of Claims as specified in the Release of Claims) shall have occurred no later than the sixtieth (60^th) day following the date of termination, and on the Executive’s continued compliance with the obligations of the Executive to the Company and its Affiliates that survive termination of the Executive’s employment, including, without limitation, under Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement. Subject to Section 5(g) below, (A) the Severance Payments to which the Executive is entitled hereunder shall be payable in accordance with the normal payroll practices of the Company; (B) the Healthcare Payments shall be paid monthly, and in both cases of (A) and (B), with the first payment, which shall be retroactive to the day immediately following the date on which the Executive’s employment terminated, being due and payable on the Company’s next regular payday for executives that follows the expiration of sixty (60) calendar days from the date on which the Executive’s employment terminates; and (C) the Pro-Rata Bonus will be payable as set forth in Section 5(a)(v) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Healthcare Payments would, in the determination of the Board or its delegate, subject the Executive, the Company or any of its Affiliates to any tax or penalty under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (as amended from time to time, the “ACA”) or Section 105(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 105(h)”), or applicable regulations or guidance issued under the ACA or Section 105(h), the Healthcare Payments shall be treated as taxable payments and be subject to imputed income tax treatment to the extent necessary to eliminate any such adverse consequences under the ACA or Section 105(h).

(e) By the Executive for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Good Reason by providing (1) written notice to the Company, specifying in reasonable detail the condition giving rise to the Good Reason, no later than the thirtieth (30^th) day following the date on which the Executive first learned or should have first learned of that condition, and (2) the Company a period of thirty (30) days in which to remedy the condition in all material respects. The Executive’s termination of employment for Good Reason will be effective on the thirty-first (31^st) calendar day following the expiration of the Company’s period to remedy, if the Company has failed to remedy the condition in all material respects. The following, if occurring without the Executive’s written consent, shall constitute “Good Reason” for termination by the Executive:

(i) a material reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary (unless such reduction affects all similarly situated employees of the Company on a proportionate basis);

(ii) a requirement that the Executive relocate to a location more than fifty (50) miles from the location where the Executive is then providing services (provided, that, a relocation shall not include: (A) the Executive’s travel for business in the course of performing the Executive’s duties for the Company or any of its Affiliates, (B) the Executive working remotely or (C) the Company or any of its Affiliates requiring the Executive to report to the office within the Executive’s principal place of employment (instead of working remotely));

(iii) a material diminution in the nature or scope of the Executive’s duties, authority and/or responsibilities; or

(iv) a material breach by the Company of (A) any of the terms of this Agreement or (B) any other material written agreement between the Company and the Executive.

In the event of termination of the Executive’s employment in accordance with this Section 5(e), the Executive will be entitled to all amounts the Executive would have been entitled to receive had the Executive’s employment been terminated by the Company other than for Cause pursuant to Section 5(d) above, provided, that, the Executive signs and returns (without revoking) a timely and effective Release of Claims as set forth in Section 5(d).

(f) By the Executive without Good Reason. The Executive may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder without Good Reason at any time upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Company. In the event of termination of the Executive’s employment in accordance with 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 the Base Salary for the period so waived. The Company shall also pay the Executive any Final Compensation due to the Executive (other than business expenses described in Section 5(a)(iii)) at the time prescribed by applicable law and in all events within thirty (30) days following the date of the termination of employment.

(g) Timing of Payments and Section 409A.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if, at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment, the Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined below, any and all amounts payable under this Section 5 on account of such separation from service that constitute deferred compensation, and would (but for this provision) be payable within six (6) months following the date of termination, shall instead be paid on the next business day following the expiration of such six (6)-month period or, if earlier, upon the Executive’s death; except (A) with respect to any amounts that do not constitute a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b) (including, without limitation, by reason of the safe harbor set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), as determined by the Company in its reasonable good faith discretion); (B) benefits that qualify as excepted welfare benefits pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5); and (C) other amounts or benefits that are not subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”).

(ii) This Agreement is intended to either comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A, and this Agreement shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intent.

(iii) For purposes of this Agreement and solely to the extent that Section 409A applies to compensation or a benefit, all references to “termination of employment” and correlative phrases shall be construed to require a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations, after giving effect to the presumptions contained therein), and the term “specified employee” means an individual determined by the Company to be a specified employee under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i).

(iv) 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.

(v) Any payment of, or reimbursement for, expenses that would constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be subject to the following additional rules: (A) no reimbursement or payment of any such expense shall affect the Executive’s right to reimbursement or payment of any such expense in any other calendar year; (B) reimbursement or payment of the expense shall be made, if at all, promptly, but not later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and (C) the right to reimbursement or payment shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

(vi) In the event of any change in the payroll schedule of the Company, each installment or payment to be made under this Agreement shall be made (according to such new payroll schedule) within thirty (30) days of the payroll date that would apply pursuant to the payroll schedule in effect on the Effective Date to the extent necessary to avoid a violation of applicable requirements under Section 409A.

(vii) In the event the Company or the Executive determines that any compensation or benefit payable hereunder may violate applicable requirements of Section 409A, the Company and the Executive shall cooperate in good faith to amend this Agreement or take any other actions as are necessary or appropriate for such compensation or benefit to either (A) be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A or (B) comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A; provided, that, no such amendment will be made to the extent it would result in an increased cost to the Company.

(viii) In no event shall the Company have any liability relating to the failure or alleged failure of any payment or benefit under this Agreement to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A.

(h) Exclusive Right to Severance. The Executive agrees that the Severance Benefits to be provided to the Executive in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement are intended to be exclusive. The Executive hereby knowingly and voluntarily waives any right the Executive might otherwise have to participate in or receive payments or benefits under any other plan, program or policy of the Company providing for severance or termination pay or other termination benefits (other than any benefits payable pursuant to a long-term disability or other similar insurance program, which shall be governed by the terms and provisions of the applicable plan or program).

6. Effect of Termination. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply to any termination of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement, whether pursuant to Section 5 or otherwise.

(a) Provision by the Company of Final Compensation, the Pro-Rata Bonus, if any, and the Severance Benefits, if any, that are due to the Executive, in each case, under the applicable termination provisions of Section 5, shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to the Executive under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Options, RSUs, and any other grants held by the Executive under the Omnibus Plan shall be governed by the terms of the Omnibus Plan and the applicable documentation for the Options, the RSUs and/or any other grants.

(b) Except for any right of the Executive to continue group health plan participation in accordance with applicable law, the Executive’s participation in all Employee Benefit Plans shall terminate pursuant to the terms of the applicable Employee Benefit Plan documents based on the date of termination of the Executive’s employment, without regard to any Base Salary for notice waived pursuant to Section 5(e) hereof or to any Severance Benefits or other payment made to or on behalf of the Executive following such termination date.

(c) Provisions of this Agreement shall survive any termination of the Executive’s employment if so provided herein or if necessary or desirable fully 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 provide Severance Benefits hereunder, and the Executive’s right to retain such payments, is expressly conditioned on the Executive’s continued performance in accordance with Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof.

7. Confidential Information.

(a) The Executive acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates continually develop Confidential Information, that the Executive will develop Confidential Information for the Company or its Affiliates and that the Executive will learn of Confidential

Information during the course of the Executive’s employment. The Executive agrees that all Confidential Information which the Executive creates or to which the Executive has access as a result of the Executive’s employment or other associations with the Company or any of its Affiliates since the Effective Date is and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company or its Affiliate, as applicable. The Executive shall comply with the policies and procedures of the Company and its Affiliates for protecting Confidential Information and shall never disclose to any Person (except as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of the Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Affiliates), or use for the Executive’s own benefit or gain or the benefit or gain of any other Person, any Confidential Information obtained by the Executive incident to the Executive’s employment or any other association with the Company or any of its Affiliates. The Executive understands that this restriction shall continue to apply after the Executive’s employment terminates, regardless of the reason for such termination. Further, the Executive agrees to furnish prompt notice to the Company, to the extent permitted by applicable law, of any required disclosure of Confidential Information sought pursuant to subpoena, court order or any other legal process or requirement, and agrees to provide the Company a reasonable opportunity to seek protection of the Confidential Information prior to any such disclosure. The confidentiality obligation under this Section 7 shall not apply to information that has become generally known through no wrongful act on the part of the Executive or any other Person having an obligation of confidentiality to the Company or any of its Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive acknowledges that nothing contained herein limits, restricts or in any other way affects the Executive’s communicating with any governmental agency or entity, or communicating with any official or staff person of a governmental agency or entity, concerning matters relevant to the governmental agency or entity.

(b) All documents, records, tapes and other media of every kind and description relating to the business, present or otherwise, of the Company or any of its Affiliates and any copies or derivatives (including, without limitation, electronic), 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 Affiliates. Except as necessary for the proper performance of the Executive’s regular duties for the Company or as expressly authorized in writing in advance by the Company or its expressly authorized designee, the Executive will not copy any Documents or remove any Documents or copies or derivatives thereof from the premises of the Company. The Executive shall safeguard all Documents and shall surrender to the Company, at the time the Executive’s employment terminates, or at such earlier time or times as the Company or its designee may specify, all Documents and other property of the Company or any of its Affiliates and all documents, records and files of the customers and other Persons with whom the Company or any of its Affiliates does business (collectively, “Third Party Documents” and each individually, a “Third Party Document”) then in the Executive’s possession or control and not accessible by the Company; provided, however, that if a Document or Third-Party Document is on electronic media, the Executive may, in lieu of surrendering the Document or Third-Party Document, provide a copy to the Company on electronic media and delete and overwrite all other electronic media copies thereof. The Executive also agrees that, upon request of any duly authorized officer of the Company, the Executive shall disclose all passwords and passcodes necessary or desirable to enable the Company or any of its Affiliates or the Persons with whom the Company or any of its Affiliates do business to obtain access to the Documents and Third-Party Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Executive may retain the Executive’s personnel and compensation information following the termination of his employment, subject to the confidentiality obligations hereunder.

(c) 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) provides: “An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that—(A) is made—(i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.” Nothing in this Agreement is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b). Accordingly, the parties to this Agreement have the right to disclose in confidence trade secrets to federal, state and local government officials, or to an attorney, for the sole purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. The parties also have the right to disclose trade secrets in a document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, but only if the filing is made under seal and protected from public disclosure.

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 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 (or as otherwise directed by 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 but shall be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith, subject to the Company’s expense reimbursement policies as in effect from time to time. All copyrightable works that the Executive creates shall be considered “work made for hire” and shall, upon creation, be owned exclusively by the Company.

9. Restricted Activities. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that (1) the Executive is an executive or management employee of the Company and is provided access to the Company’s “Trade Secrets,” defined as the whole or any portion or phase of any scientific or technical information, design, process, procedure, formula, improvement, confidential business or financial information, listing of names, addresses or telephone numbers, or other information relating to the Company which is secret and of value, and (2) the following restrictions on the Executive’s activities during and after employment with the Company are necessary to protect the Company’s Trade Secrets and other legitimate interests of the Company and its Affiliates:

(a) Non-Competition. While the Executive is employed by the Company and during the two (2)-year period immediately following termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any or no reason (the “Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, partner, investor, consultant, agent, employee, independent contractor, co-venturer or otherwise, whether with or without compensation, compete with the Business (as defined below), or any portion of the Business, in the United States of America (the “Restricted Area”) or undertake any planning for any business competitive with all or a portion of the Business in the Restricted Area. Specifically, but without limiting the foregoing, the Executive agrees not to work or provide services, in any capacity, whether as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise, whether with or without compensation, to any Person that is engaged in all or any portion of the Business, as conducted or in active planning to be conducted during the Executive’s employment with the Company or, with respect to the portion of the Restricted Period that follows the termination of the Executive’s employment, at the time the Executive’s employment terminates, in the Restricted Area. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall (i) prevent the Executive from providing services to a consulting firm that provides services to any business that competes with the Business, (ii) preclude the Executive from owning up to two percent (2%) of the publicly traded securities of any business or (iii) prevent the Executive from providing services to an entity that contains a business that competes with the Business, provided, that, the Executive is not responsible for (and does not engage or participate in) the day-to-day management, oversight or supervision of such business, and provided, further, that the Executive does not have direct supervision over the individual or individuals who are so responsible for such day-to-day management, oversight or supervision.

(b) Non-Solicitation.

(i) During the Restricted Period, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, (A) solicit or encourage any customer of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate or diminish its relationship with them; or (B) seek to persuade any such customer or prospective customer of the Company or any of its Affiliates to conduct with anyone else any business or activity which such customer or prospective customer conducts or could conduct with the Company or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that these restrictions shall apply (I) only with respect to any Person who is or has been a customer of the Company or any of its Affiliates at any time within the immediately preceding two (2)-year period or whose business has been solicited on behalf of the Company or any of its Affiliates by any of their officers, employees or agents within such two (2)-year period, other than by form letter, blanket mailing or published advertisement, and (II) only if the Executive has performed work for such Person during the Executive’s employment with the Company or one of its Affiliates or been introduced to, or otherwise had contact with, such Person as a result of the Executive’s employment or other associations with the Company or one of its Affiliates or has had access to Confidential Information which would assist in the Executive’s solicitation of such Person. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9(b) to the contrary, the Executive may solicit customers and prospective customers for purposes of providing or selling products or services that do not compete with the Business.

(ii) During the Restricted Period, the Executive will not, and will not assist any other Person to, (A) hire or solicit for hiring any employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates or seek to persuade any employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates to discontinue employment or (B) solicit or encourage any independent contractor providing services to the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate or diminish such independent contractor’s relationship with them. For the purposes of this Agreement, an “employee” or an “independent contractor” of the Company or any of its Affiliates is any Person who was such at any time within the preceding two (2) years.

(c) Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees that the Executive will never disparage or criticize the Company, its Affiliates, their business, their management or their products or services, and that Executive will not otherwise do or say anything that could disrupt the good morale of employees of the Company or any of its Affiliates or harm the interests or reputation of the Company or any of its Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not prevent the Executive from performing the Executive’s duties during the term hereof, as it relates to performance evaluations and the like.

10. Whistleblower Protection. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted so as to impede the Executive (or any other individual) from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including, but not limited to, the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation. The Executive does not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures, and the Executive shall not be required to notify the Company that such reports or disclosures have been made.

11. Enforcement of Covenants. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has carefully read and considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed upon the Executive pursuant to Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof. The Executive agrees without reservation that each of the restraints contained herein is necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the goodwill, Confidential Information and other legitimate interests of the Company and its Affiliates; that each and every one of these restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area; and that these restraints, individually or in the aggregate, will not prevent the Executive from obtaining other suitable employment during the period in which the Executive is bound by them. The Executive further agrees that the Executive will never assert, or permit to be asserted on the Executive’s behalf, in any forum, any position contrary to the foregoing. The Executive further acknowledges that, were the Executive to breach any of the covenants contained in Sections 7, 8 or 9 hereof, the damage to the Company and its Affiliates would be irreparable. The Executive therefore agrees that the Company, in addition and not in the alternative to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled to seek 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 Sections 7, 8 or 9 hereof shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. The Executive agrees that the Restricted Period shall be tolled, and shall not run, during any period of time in which the Executive is in violation of the terms thereof, in order that the Company and its Affiliates shall have all of the agreed-upon temporal protection recited herein. No breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Company, or any other claimed breach of contract or violation of law, or change in the nature or scope of the Executive’s employment relationship with the Company, shall operate to extinguish the Executive’s obligation to comply with Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof. Each of the Company’s Affiliates shall have the right to enforce all of the Executive’s obligations to that Affiliate under this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 7, 8 or 9 hereof.

12. No Conflicting Agreements. The Executive hereby represents and warrants that the execution of this Agreement and the performance of the Executive’s obligations hereunder will not breach or be in conflict with any other agreement to which the Executive is a party or by which the Executive is bound, and that the Executive is not now subject to any covenants against competition or any similar covenants or other obligations to any Person or to any court order, judgment or decree that would affect the performance of the Executive’s 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.

Attachment I

Innovage holding corp.
2021 omnibus INCENTIVE PLAN

Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement

Pursuant to the Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this Option Agreement (this “Agreement”), InnovAge Holding Corp. (the “Company”) has granted you an Award under its 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s Stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the exercise price indicated in your Grant Notice. The Option is granted to you effective as of the date of grant set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Date of Grant”). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement or in the Grant Notice but defined in the Plan will have the same meaning as in the Plan.

If there is any conflict between the terms in this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control. The details of your option (this or your “Option”), in addition to those set forth in the Grant Notice and the Plan, are as follows:

1. Vesting. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your Option will vest as provided in your Grant Notice. Vesting will cease upon your Termination. Upon your Termination, the portion of the Option that is not vested on the date of such Termination will be forfeited at no cost to the Company, and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such underlying shares of Stock.

2. Number of Shares and Exercise Price. The number of shares of Stock subject to your Option and the exercise price per share set forth in your Grant Notice will be adjusted from time to time for capitalization adjustments, as provided in the Plan. Any additional shares that become subject to the Option pursuant to this Section 2, if any, shall be subject, in a manner determined by the Committee, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability and time and manner of delivery as applicable to the other shares covered by your Option. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2, no fractional shares or rights for fractional shares of Stock shall be created pursuant to this Section 2. Any fraction of a share will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

3. Method of Payment. You must pay the full amount of the exercise price for the shares you wish to acquire upon exercise of the Option. You may pay the exercise price in a manner approved by the Committee and in accordance with applicable law, which may include any of the following payment methods: (a) in immediately available funds in U.S. dollars, or by certified or bank cashier’s check, (b) by delivery of shares of Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price, (c) by a broker-assisted cashless exercise in accordance with procedures approved by the Committee, whereby payment of the Option exercise price or tax withholding obligations may be satisfied, in whole or in part, with shares of Stock subject to the Option by delivery of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker (on a form prescribed by the Committee) to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate exercise price and, if applicable, the amount necessary to satisfy the Company’s withholding obligations, or (d) by any other means approved by the Committee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Committee determines that any form of payment available hereunder would be in violation of Section 402 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, such form of payment shall not be available.

4. Whole Shares. You may exercise your Option only for whole shares of Stock.

5. Securities Law Compliance. In no event may you exercise your Option unless the shares of Stock issuable upon exercise are then registered under the Securities Act or, if not registered, the Company has determined that your exercise and the issuance of the shares would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of your Option also must comply with all other applicable laws and regulations governing your Option and the Company’s policies, and you may not exercise any portion of your Option if the Company determines that such exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws, regulations or Company policies, if applicable.

6. Term. You may not exercise your Option before the Date of Grant or after the expiration of the Option’s term. The term of your Option shall expire upon a Termination in accordance with Section 5(f) of the Plan, and such Section 5(f) of the Plan is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, if your employment with Total Community Options, Inc., d/b/a InnovAge (“InnovAge”), is terminated due to your resignation for Good Reason (as defined in that certain Employment Agreement, by and between you and InnovAge), your Option will be treated in accordance with Section 5(f)(1) of the Plan.

7. Exercise.

(a) You may exercise the vested portion of your Option during its term by (i) completing such documents and/or procedures designated by the Company, or a third party designated by the Company, for exercise, and (ii) paying the exercise price and any applicable withholding taxes, together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.

(b) By exercising your Option, you agree that, as a condition to any exercise of your Option, the Company may require you to enter into an arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of (i) the exercise of your Option or (ii) the disposition of shares of Stock acquired upon such exercise.

8. Transferability of Options. Except as set forth in the following sentences, your Option is not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during your life only by you. Upon receiving written permission from the Committee or its duly authorized designee, you may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form approved by the Company and any broker designated by the Company to handle option exercises, designate a third party who, on your death, will thereafter be entitled to exercise this Option and receive the Stock or other consideration resulting from such exercise. In the absence of such a designation, your executor or administrator of your estate will be entitled to exercise this Option and receive, on behalf of your estate, the Stock or other consideration resulting from such exercise

9. Dividends. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your Option with respect to any cash dividend, stock dividend or other distribution that does not result from the adjustment provided in Section 10(a) of the Plan.

10. Restrictive Legends. The shares of Stock issued under your Option shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if applicable, as determined by the Company.

11. Award Not A Service Contract. This Agreement is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment or service.

12. Withholding Obligations.

(a) At the time you exercise your Option, in whole or in part, and at any other time as reasonably requested by the Company in accordance with applicable tax laws, you hereby authorize any required withholding from the shares of Stock issuable to you and/or otherwise agree to make adequate provision in cash for any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or any Affiliate that arise in connection with your exercise (the “Withholding Taxes”). Additionally, the Company or any Affiliate may, in its sole discretion, satisfy all or any portion of the Withholding Taxes obligation relating to your exercise by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) withholding from any compensation otherwise payable to you by the Company; (ii) causing you to tender a cash payment; (iii) permitting or requiring you to enter into a “same day sale” commitment, whereby Withholding Taxes may be satisfied with a portion of the shares of Stock to be delivered in connection with your exercise by delivery of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker (on a form prescribed by the Committee) to sell a portion of the shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company and/or its Affiliates in payment of the amount necessary to satisfy the Withholding Taxes obligation; (iv) withholding shares of Stock from the shares of Stock issued or otherwise issuable to you in connection with the Option with an aggregate Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of exercise) equal to the amount of such Withholding Taxes; provided, that to the extent necessary to qualify for an exemption from application of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, if applicable, such share withholding procedure will be subject to the express prior approval of the Committee; or (v) such other arrangements as are satisfactory to the Committee.

(b) You may not exercise your Option unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, you may not be able to exercise your Option when desired even though your Option is vested, and the Company will have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares of Stock or release such shares of Stock from any escrow provided for herein, if applicable, unless such obligations are satisfied.

(c) In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of shares of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of shares of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligations was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.

13. Tax Consequences. You hereby agree that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities. You will not make any claim against the Company, or any of its officers, directors, employees or Affiliates, related to tax liabilities arising from your Option or your other compensation. In particular, you acknowledge that this Option is exempt from Section 409A of the Code only if the exercise price per share specified in the Grant Notice is at least equal to the “fair market value” per share of the Stock on the Date of Grant, and there is no other impermissible deferral of compensation associated with the Option.

14. Notices. Any notices provided for in your Option or the Plan will be given in writing (including electronically) and will be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this Option by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. By accepting this Option, you consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and 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.

15. Governing Plan Document. Your Option is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your Option, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. If there is any conflict between the provisions of your Option and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will control. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of delaware. Any dispute, controversy or claim between YOU and the Company arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with THE PROVISIONS RELATING TO ARBITRATION SET FORTH IN THe PLAN.

16. Clawback/Recoupment Policy. Your Option (and any compensation paid or shares issued under your Option) is subject to recoupment in accordance with The Xxxx Xxxxx Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any implementing regulations thereunder, any other clawback policy adopted by the Company and any compensation recovery policy otherwise required by applicable law.

17. Other Documents. You hereby acknowledge receipt of and the right to receive a document providing the information required by Rule 428(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act, which includes the Plan prospectus.

18. Effect On Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of this Option will not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries or other similar terms used when calculating your benefits under any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans.

19. Voting Rights. You will not have voting or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares to be issued pursuant to this Option until such shares are issued to you. Upon such issuance, you will obtain full voting and other rights as a stockholder of the Company. Nothing contained in this Option, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, will create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between you and the Company or any other person.

20. Severability. If all or any part of this Agreement or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity will not invalidate any portion of this Agreement or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any Section of this Agreement (or part of such a Section) so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner which will give effect to the terms of such Section or part of a Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.

21. Data Privacy. You explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in Section 20(g) of the Plan (such Section 20(g) of the Plan is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof) by and among, as applicable, the Company, its Affiliates, third-party administrator(s) and other possible recipients for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and Awards and your participation in the Plan. You acknowledge, understand and agree that Data may be transferred to third parties, which will assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.

22. Miscellaneous.

(a) The rights and obligations of the Company under your Option will be transferable to any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder will inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns.

(d) This Agreement will be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

(e) All obligations of the Company under the Plan and this Agreement will be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or other acquisition of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

Attachment I

INNOVAGE HOLDING CORP.
2021 omnibus INCENTIVE PLAN

RSU Agreement

Pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this RSU Agreement (this “Agreement”), InnovAge Holding Corp. (the “Company”) has granted you an Award of Restricted Stock Units under its 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), with respect to the number of shares of Stock indicated in the Grant Notice. Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement or in the Grant Notice but defined in the Plan will have the same meaning as in the Plan.

If there is any conflict between the terms in this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control. The details of your Award of Restricted Stock Units (this or your “Award”), in addition to those set forth in the Grant Notice and the Plan, are as follows:

1. Grant of the Award. This Award represents the right to be issued on a future date one (1) share of Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests on the applicable vesting date(s) (subject to any adjustment under Section ‎3 below) as indicated in the Grant Notice. As of the Date of Grant, the Company will credit to a bookkeeping account maintained by or on behalf of the Company for your benefit (the “Account”) the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award. This Award was granted in consideration of your services to the Company.

2. Vesting. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your Award will vest as provided in your Grant Notice. Vesting will cease upon your Termination. Upon your Termination, the Restricted Stock Units credited to the Account that were not vested on the date of such Termination will be forfeited at no cost to the Company, and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such underlying shares of Stock.

3. Number of Shares. The number of shares of Stock subject to your Award may be adjusted from time to time for capitalization adjustments, as provided in the Plan. Any additional Restricted Stock Units, shares, cash or other property that becomes subject to the Award pursuant to this Section ‎3, if any, shall be subject, in a manner determined by the Committee, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability and time and manner of delivery as applicable to the other Restricted Stock Units covered by your Award. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section ‎3, no fractional shares or rights for fractional shares of Stock shall be created pursuant to this Section ‎3. Any fraction of a share will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

4. Securities Law Compliance. You may not be issued any shares of Stock under your Award unless the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units are then registered under the Securities Act or, if not registered, the Company has determined that such issuance of the shares would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The issuance of shares of Stock must also comply with all other applicable laws and regulations governing the Award and the Company’s policies, and you shall not receive such Stock if the Company determines that such receipt would not be in material compliance with such laws, regulations or Company policies, if applicable.

5. Transfer Restrictions. Prior to the time that shares of Stock have been delivered to you, you may not transfer, pledge, sell or otherwise dispose of this Award or the shares issuable in respect of your Award, except that, upon receiving written permission from the Committee or its duly authorized designee, you may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form approved by the Company, designate a third party who, on your death, will thereafter be entitled to receive the shares issuable in respect of your Award, and in the absence of such a designation, your executor or administrator of your estate will be entitled to receive any Stock or other consideration that vested but was not issued before your death. For example, you may not use shares that may be issued in respect of your Restricted Stock Units as security for a loan. The restrictions on transfer set forth herein will lapse upon delivery to you of shares in respect of your vested Restricted Stock Units.

6. Date of Issuance.

a. The issuance of shares in respect of the Restricted Stock Units is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and will be construed and administered in such a manner. The Company shall issue to you one (1) share of Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests, if any, as soon as practicable following the applicable vesting date(s) (subject to any adjustment under Section ‎3 above) and in any event within thirty (30) days following the vesting date.

b. The form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) shall be determined by the Company.

7. Dividends. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your Award with respect to any cash dividend, stock dividend or other distribution that does not result from the adjustment provided in Section 10(a) of the Plan.

8. Restrictive Legends. The shares of Stock issued under your Award shall be endorsed with appropriate legends, if applicable, as determined by the Company.

9. Award Not a Service Contract. This Agreement is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment or service.

10. Withholding Obligations.

a. On or before the time you receive a distribution of the shares of Stock underlying your Award, and at any other time as reasonably requested by the Company in accordance with applicable tax laws, you hereby authorize any required withholding from the shares of Stock issuable to you and/or otherwise agree to make adequate provision in cash for any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or any Affiliate that arise in connection with your Award (the “Withholding Taxes”). Additionally, the Company or any Affiliate may, in its sole discretion, satisfy all or any portion of the Withholding Taxes obligation relating to your Award by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) withholding from any compensation otherwise payable to you by the Company; (ii) causing you to tender a cash payment; (iii) permitting or requiring you to enter into a “same day sale” commitment, whereby Withholding Taxes may be satisfied with a portion of the shares of Stock to be delivered in connection with your Restricted Stock Units by delivery of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker (on a form prescribed by the Committee) to sell a portion of the shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company and/or its Affiliates in payment of the amount necessary to satisfy the Withholding Taxes obligation; (iv) withholding shares of Stock from the shares of Stock issued or otherwise issuable to you in connection with the Award with an aggregate Fair Market Value (measured as of the date shares of Stock are issued to pursuant to Section ‎6) equal to the amount of such Withholding Taxes; provided, that to the extent necessary to qualify for an exemption from application of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, if applicable, such share withholding procedure will be subject to the express prior approval of the Committee; or (v) such other arrangements as are satisfactory to the Committee.

b. Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any shares of Stock.

c. In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of shares of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of shares of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligations was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.

11. Tax Consequences. You hereby agree that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities. You will not make any claim against the Company, or any of its officers, directors, employees or Affiliates, related to tax liabilities arising from your Award or your other compensation.

Any dispute, controversy or claim between YOU and the Company arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with THE PROVISIONS RELATING TO ARBITRATION SET FORTH IN THe PLAN.

15. Clawback/Recoupment Policy.
