4.1 Put Option.

(a) Prior to the occurrence of the initial Public Offering, if Executive’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates due to the death of Executive, Executive and Executive’s Permitted Transferees (hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as “Executive’s Group”) shall have the right, subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof, for 180 days following the Termination Date, to sell to the Company (the “Put Right”), and the Company shall be required to purchase (subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof), on one occasion from each member of Executive’s Group, all (but not less than all) of the number of Units then held by Executive’s Group that equals all Units collectively held by Executive’s Group at a price per Unit equal to the Fair Market Value of such Units (measured as of the date that the relevant election to purchase such Units is delivered (the “Valuation Date”)). In order to exercise its rights with respect to the Units pursuant to this Section 4.1(a), Executive’s Group shall also be required to simultaneously exercise any similar rights it may have with respect to any other units of the Company held by Executive’s Group in accordance with the terms of the agreements pursuant to which such other units were acquired from the Company.

(b) If Executive’s Group desires to exercise the Put Right, the members of Executive’s Group shall send one written notice to the Company setting forth such members’ intention to collectively sell all of their Units pursuant to Section 4.1(a), which notice shall include the signature of each member of Executive’s Group. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1, the closing of the purchase shall take place at the principal office of the Company on a date specified by the Company no later than the 30th day after the giving of such notice.

4.2 Call Options.

(i) Termination with Cause. If Executive’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with Cause (or by Executive when grounds exist for a termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with Cause), the purchase price per Unit will be the lesser of (A) Fair Market Value thereof (measured as of the Valuation Date) and (B) Cost; and

(ii) Death. If Executive’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated due to the death of Executive, the purchase price per Unit will be the Fair Market Value thereof (measured as of the Valuation Date).

4.3 Obligation to Sell Several. If there is more than one member of Executive’s Group, the failure of any one member thereof to perform its obligations hereunder shall not excuse or affect the obligations of any other member thereof, and the closing of the purchases from such other members by the Company shall not excuse, or constitute a waiver of its rights against, the defaulting member.

5.1 Prohibition of Purchases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be obligated to purchase any Units at any time pursuant to Section 4, regardless of whether it has delivered a notice of its election to purchase any such Units, to the extent that the purchase of such Units or the payment to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries of a cash dividend or distribution by a Subsidiary of the Company that is necessary to fund such purchase (together with any other purchases of Units pursuant to Section 4 or pursuant to similar provisions in agreements with other employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries of which the Company has at such time been given or has given notice and together with cash dividends and distributions necessary to fund such other purchases) would result in a violation of any law, statute, rule, regulation, policy, order, writ, injunction, decree or judgment promulgated or entered by any federal, state, local or foreign court or governmental authority applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their property. The Company shall, within fifteen days of learning of any such fact, so notify the members of Executive’s Group that it is not obligated to purchase Units hereunder.

5.2 Payment for Units. If at any time the Company elects or is required to purchase any Units pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall pay the purchase price for the Units it purchases (i) first, by the cancellation of any indebtedness, if any, owing from Executive to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (which indebtedness shall be applied pro rata against the proceeds receivable by each member of Executive’s Group receiving consideration in such repurchase) and (ii) then, by the Company’s delivery of a check or wire transfer of immediately available funds for the remainder of the purchase price, if any, against delivery of the certificates or other instruments, if any, representing the Units so purchased, duly endorsed; provided that if (x) any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1 exists or (y) such purchase of Units would result in a Financing Default, in each case which prohibits such cash payment (either directly or indirectly

8

as a result of the prohibition of a related cash dividend or distribution) (each a “Cash Payment Restriction”), the portion of the cash payment so prohibited may be made with respect to the exercise of any Put Right, to the extent such payment is not prohibited, by the Company’s delivery of a junior subordinated promissory note (which shall be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment of any debt outstanding under the senior Financing Agreements and any modifications, renewals, extensions, replacements and refunding of all such indebtedness provided that no dividends, distributions or payments shall be made with respect to the Company’s Class A units prior to payment in full of the Junior Subordinated Note (as defined) of the Company (a “Junior Subordinated Note”) in a principal amount equal to the balance of the purchase price, payable within ten days after the Cash Payment Restriction no longer exists, and bearing interest payable (and compounded to the extent not so paid) as of the last day of each year at the interest rate payable under the senior financing credit facilities of the Company or its Subsidiaries (as applicable) from time to time, and all such accrued and unpaid interest payable on the date of the payment of principal (or, if applicable, the last installment of principal), with payments to be applied in the order of: (A) first to any enforcement costs incurred by Executive or Executive’s Group, (B) second to interest and (C) third to principal (provided that the applicable member of Executive’s Group may reject (by delivery of a written notice at the closing of the purchase and sale) the delivery of a Junior Subordinated Note as the purchase price in the case of Section 4.1(a), in which case the Put Right shall be extended until the 90^th day following delivery of written notice from the Company to Executive’s Group that the Cash Payment Restriction has lapsed, unless the Company agrees to arrange for alternative payment of the applicable purchase price in cash). In the event that a Cash Payment Restriction exists as a result of a Financing Default and the Company or its Subsidiaries is refinancing, modifying, reviewing, extending, replacing or refunding the indebtedness that resulted in the Financing Default then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such refinanced, modified, reviewed, extended, replaced or refunded indebtedness not to include any terms that would result in a Financing Default with respect to the payment for the Units as contemplated herein. The Company shall have the right set forth in clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 5.2 whether or not the member of Executive’s Group selling such Units is an obligor of the Company. The principal of, and accrued interest on, any such Junior Subordinated Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time at the option of the Company. To the extent that the Company is prohibited from paying accrued interest, that is required to be paid on any Junior Subordinated Note prior to maturity, due to the existence of any Cash Payment Restriction, such interest shall be cumulated, compounded calendar quarterly, and accrued until and to the extent that such Cash Payment Restriction no longer exists, at which time such accrued interest shall be immediately paid. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Company may elect to pay the purchase price hereunder in shares or other equity securities of one of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries with a fair market value equal to the applicable purchase price, provided that such Subsidiary promptly repurchases such shares or other equity securities for cash equal to the applicable purchase price or a Junior Subordinated Note (if otherwise permissible hereunder) with a principal amount equal to the applicable purchase price.

6.      Competitive Activity.

provided that the foregoing shall not apply to information that was or becomes generally available to the public prior to, and other than as a result of, disclosure by Executive.

(b) During the period of Executive’s employment and, following termination of such employment for any reason, for 12 months following the date of such termination, (i) Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, enter the employ of, or render any services to, any person, firm or corporation engaged in any business that competes with a material line of business of Holdings or its Subsidiaries (subject to the following provisos, the “Business”) at any time; provided that for periods after the Termination Date, “material line of business” will be determined as of the Termination Date; (ii) Executive shall not engage in the Business on Executive’s own account; (iii) Executive shall not invest in any such Business, directly or indirectly, as an individual, partner, shareholder, principal, member, trustee or similar capacity and (iv) Executive shall not solicit or assist in soliciting in competition with Company in the Business, the business of any then current or prospective client or former customer with whom Executive (or his direct reports) had personal contact or dealings on behalf of the Company; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 1(b) shall be deemed to prohibit (i) Executive’s involvement in any capacity in any health plan, health insurance business or health care financing business, (ii) Executive from acquiring, solely as an investment, up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any public corporation or (iii) Executive’s passive investments in existence as of the date hereof.

(c) During the period of Executive’s employment other than in connection with Executive’s performance of services under the Employment Agreement (or, if applicable, the Services Agreement attached thereto) and, following termination of such employment for any reason, for 24 months following the date of such termination, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly:

(i) solicit or encourage any manager or executive of the Company to leave the employment or engagement of the Company; or

(ii) hire any manager or executive of the Company who was employed by the Company as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company or who left the employment of the Company coincident with, or within one year prior to, the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.

provided, however, that the foregoing clause (i) shall not preclude Executive from (A) making good faith generalized solicitations for employees through advertisements or search firms and hiring any persons through such solicitations if Executive was not aware of such person’s prior employment with the Company; provided, that Executive does not encourage or advise such firm to approach any such employee and such searches are not targeted or focused on the Company’s employees, or (B) responding to or hiring any employee of the Company who contacts Executive at his or her own initiative without any prior direct or indirect encouragement or solicitation from Executive if Executive was not aware of such person’s prior employment with the Company.

(d) If Executive commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of Section 1 hereof, the Company shall have the following rights and remedies:

(i) the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Appendix specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy to the Company; and

(ii) the right and remedy to require Executive to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits (collectively, “Benefits”) derived or received by Executive as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of any of the provisions of this Section 1, and Executive hereby agrees to account for and pay over such Benefits to the Company.

Each of the rights and remedies enumerated above shall be independent of the other, and shall be severally enforceable, and all of such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company under law or in equity.

(e) If any of the covenants contained in Section 1 or any part thereof, hereafter are construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants, which shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.

(f) If any of the covenants contained in Section 1, or any part thereof, are held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the area covered thereby, the

parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or area of such provision and, in its reduced form, said provision shall then be enforceable.

(g) The parties hereto intend to and hereby confer jurisdiction to enforce the covenants contained in Section 1 upon the courts of any state within the geographical scope of such covenants. In the event that the courts of any one or more of such states shall hold such covenants wholly unenforceable by reason of the breadth of such covenants or otherwise, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such determination not bar or in any way affect the Company’s right to the relief provided above in the courts of any other states within the geographical scope of such covenants as to breaches of such covenants in such other respective jurisdictions, the above covenants as they relate to each state being for this purpose severable into diverse and independent covenants.

(h) It is expressly understood and agreed that although Executive and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this Section 1 to be reasonable, if a final judicial determination is made by a court of competent jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in this Appendix A is an unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions of this Appendix A shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such maximum extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be enforceable. Alternatively, if any court of competent jurisdiction finds that any restriction contained in this Appendix A is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained herein.

(i) The period of time during which the provisions of this Appendix shall be in effect shall be extended by the length of time during which Executive is in breach of the terms hereof as determined by any court of competent jurisdiction on the Company’s application for injunctive relief.
