Such biweekly separation payments are based upon (i) your annual base salary effective March 31,

As of the Effective Date of this Separation Agreement, Cerner will, with respect to each of your outstanding equity awards as of the date hereof and granted by Cerner to you pursuant to an equity compensation plan approved by Cerner's shareholders and relating to Cerner common stock (each a “Cerner Equity Award”) (i) fully vest each Cerner Equity Award that is an outstanding unvested stock option (and you shall have the earlier of one year from the Effective Date and the balance of the original option term to exercise such option); (ii) fully vest each Cerner Equity Award that is an outstanding unvested time-based Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”); and (iii) fully vest each Cerner Equity Award that is an outstanding unvested Performance Share Unit (“PSU”), including the RSUs and PSUs granted to you on April 29, 2019, assuming a 100% of target level of achievement. Each of the grant instruments for any Cerner Equity Award the vesting or exercise of which is adjusted by this Paragraph 1.C. is hereby deemed amended by the parties upon the Effective Date of this Separation Agreement.

In the event of your death before the completion of the payout of any of the benefits described in Paragraph 1, Cerner will pay the remaining benefits described in Paragraph 1 in a lump sum to your designated Beneficiary separately communicated to Cerner provided that Beneficiary completes and delivers a Form W-9 to Cerner. You may revoke or change this Beneficiary designation at any time by delivering to Cerner a written document signed by you with the attestation of a notary stating that you are revoking or changing the designation, provided that such document is delivered while you are still alive and of sound mind. If your designated Beneficiary does not survive you or if your deaths are simultaneous, this paragraph and designation shall be void and of no effect, and any payments due under Paragraph 1 shall be made to your estate.

YOUR RELEASE OF CLAIMS. On behalf of yourself and your successors, assigns, agents, heirs and descendants, you hereby acquit, release and forever discharge Cerner and its affiliates and subsidiaries, and all of their successors, assigns, officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, shareholders, fiduciaries, attorneys and representatives, whether past or present for all of the foregoing (collectively, the “Cerner Released Parties”) from any and all manner of claims, debts, damages, injuries, judgments, awards, executions, demands, liabilities, obligations, suits, actions and causes of action, whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, accrued or to accrue, direct or indirect, and whether at law or in equity, which you may have against the Cerner Released Parties, including, but not limited to, those arising out of or by reason of your employment by Cerner, or with respect to your departure from employment with Cerner and/or its subsidiaries, or with respect to claims for expenses, salary, incentive payments or equity grants against Cerner.

You understand and agree that you are releasing Cerner and all other Cerner Released Parties from all rights and claims of discrimination relating to age, including all rights and claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (hereinafter referred to as “ADEA”).

Nothing in this Separation Agreement is intended to, or shall, interfere with your rights under federal, state, or local civil rights or employment discrimination laws to file or otherwise institute a charge of discrimination, to participate in a proceeding with any appropriate federal, state, or local government agency enforcing discrimination laws, or to cooperate with any such agency in its investigation, none of which shall constitute a breach of this letter agreement. You shall not, however, be entitled to any relief, recovery, or monies in connection with any such action or investigation brought against Cerner, regardless of who filed or initiated any such complaint, charge, or proceeding. Nothing in this Separation Agreement is intended to, or shall, interfere with your right to file a claim for unemployment benefits (if any), or to file a claim asserting any causes of action which by law you may not legally waive.

Nothing in this Separation Agreement is intended to, or shall, interfere with (1) your rights to indemnification under Cerner’s bylaws (and Cerner agrees to keep in force sufficient directors and officers insurance to protect you against such potential liabilities for a period of three years from the Effective Date). (2) your rights to vested ERISA benefits; and (3) your rights under this Separation Agreement.

CERNER’S RELEASE OF CLAIMS. Cerner, its affiliates and subsidiaries and all of their successors and assigns (collectively, the “Cerner Parties”) hereby acquit, release and forever discharge you and your successors, assigns, agents, heirs and descendants, from any and all manner of claims, debts, damages, injuries, judgments, awards, executions, demands, liabilities, obligations, suits, actions and causes of action that have accrued as of and are known to Cerner on your termination date, whether direct or indirect and whether at law or in equity, which the Cerner Parties may have against you arising out of your employment with Cerner. The Cerner Parties’ release of claims does apply to any and all employment claims brought by Cerner associates or third parties, whether known or unknown to Cerner on your termination date. The Cerner Parties’ release of claims does not apply to claims related to the enforcement of or your failure to comply with this Agreement or your violation of your noncompetition, confidentiality, and non-solicitation obligations.

RETURN OF CERNER PROPERTY. You acknowledge that you will return all Cerner-issued equipment, including, but not limited to, your security card/office key to the building(s) upon your January 10, 2020 termination date. Cerner agrees you will not be required to return your laptop, ipad and cell phone and you may retain those devices as personal property after your January 10, 2020 termination date; however, you agree that you will first work with Cerner to ensure that corporate data is appropriately transferred to Cerner information systems and wiped from the devices and to allow Cerner to preserve potentially relevant data for any pending legal matters. You further

In consideration for the separation payments to be provided under this Separation Agreement, you agree, subject to applicable state law, that for a period of two (2) years following the termination of your employment, you will not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of yourself or on behalf of any other person, entity, or organization, solicit for employment (i) any Cerner associate, or (ii) any employee of a Cerner client company with whom you have had personal interaction within the one year prior to your separation date. For purposes of this Paragraph 7, “solicit” means that you will not affirmatively initiate communications with (i) any Cerner associate, or (ii)any employee of a Cerner client company with whom you have had personal interaction within the one year prior to your separation date, for the purpose of inviting such associate or employee to apply for or consider employment with another person, entity, or organization. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall in no way prohibit job postings of general applicability, provided that they are not specifically targeted at (i) employees of Cerner, or (ii) employees of a Cerner client company with whom you have had personal interaction within the one year prior to your separation date (or from hiring an individual via such a job posting). You further agree that the obligations set forth herein are in lieu of the non-solicit obligation in your Employment Agreement

This Separation Agreement shall become effective after the seven-day revocation period has expired assuming you do not revoke it, but in no event earlier than January 18, 2020 (the “Effective Date”).

NO FURTHER PAYMENTS. You agree that your employment will terminate effective January 10, 2020, and that, after that date, Cerner will owe no additional compensation to you other than: (i) your final paycheck covering the period through January 10, 2020, (ii) any performance-based cash

You will remain eligible to participate in the Cerner Corporation 2018 Performance Compensation Plan (“CPP”) through the last day of the fourth fiscal quarter of 2019. Calculations and payments under the CPP for Q4 2019 shall be governed by the CPP and equal to the actual CPP metrics achieved or not achieved in that quarter.

FORFEITURE AND REIMBURSEMENT. By signing this Separation Agreement, you agree that the promises you have made in it are of a special nature and that any material breach or material violation by you of the terms of this Separation Agreement will result in immediate and irreparable harm to Cerner.

Cerner will also be entitled to all other legal and equitable remedies available to it by law.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Separation Agreement, all payments provided hereunder shall be made in a manner that is intended to comply with Section 409A or an applicable exemption thereto, including the separation pay and short-term deferral exceptions. Any payment provided under this Separation Agreement which is required to be delayed for six months following your separation from service and on account of you being a “specified employee” of Cerner shall be so delayed. For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided under this Separation Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. Notwithstanding

SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Separation Agreement is held to be unenforceable, this Separation Agreement will be deemed amended to the extent necessary to render the otherwise unenforceable provision-and the rest of this Separation Agreement-valid and enforceable. If an arbitrator (or court) declines to amend this Separation Agreement as provided in this paragraph, the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Separation Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which must be enforced as if the offending provision had not been included in this Separation Agreement.

COMPLETE AGREEMENT. This Separation Agreement constitutes the full, complete and entire agreement of the parties related to the separation benefits to which you are entitled. Without limitation,
