These Terms and Conditions are an important part of your grant of Restricted Stock Units from Cigna Corporation (Cigna). The terms of your Restricted Stock Unit grant are in: (a) the electronic Restricted Stock Unit Grant Agreement above, (b) these Terms and Conditions (including the Addendum), (c) the Covenant Agreement and (d) the Cigna Stock Unit Plan (Plan).

Certain words in this document with first letters capitalized are defined in the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Agreement above, these Terms and Conditions or Article 2 of the Plan. For purposes of these Terms and Conditions, “Employer” means Cigna or a Subsidiary that employs you on the applicable date. This grant is void if you are not an employee of Cigna or a Subsidiary (a Cigna company) on the Grant Date.

1. Restricted Stock Units; Restrictions

Units are subject to certain Restrictions from the grant date until the applicable Payment Date described in paragraph 3. The Restrictions are:

(d) Unless an early vesting exception applies (described in paragraph 3), you will forfeit (lose your right to) your unvested Units and all related rights (including the right to Dividend Equivalent payments) immediately upon your Termination of Employment.

Sections 4.3 and 4.6 of the Plan describe these Restrictions in more detail. In addition to these Restrictions, you must also comply with all the terms and conditions of this grant and the Covenant Agreement

2. Vesting

(a) Except as described in paragraph 2(b) and subject to paragraph 2(c), the Restrictions on the Units will end (your Units will vest) on the applicable Payment Date described in paragraph 3, but only if you remain continuously employed by a Cigna company until the applicable Payment Date and comply with all the terms and conditions of this grant and the Covenant Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph 2(a) and subject to paragraph 2(c), if your Termination of Employment is before an applicable Payment Date:

(1) Your Units will vest upon your Termination of Employment if it is Upon a Change of Control or due to your death or Disability; and

(2) Your Units may vest upon your Termination of Employment if it is due to your Early Retirement or Retirement and if the Committee or its designee (including Cigna’s senior human resources officer) approves the early vesting before your Termination of Employment. If you want to be considered for early vesting when you retire, you must ask your manager or human resources representative far enough in advance of your retirement so there is time to process your request.

Whether there is a Termination Upon a Change of Control for purposes of this Restricted Stock Unit grant is determined by reference to a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan) of the entity issuing this grant (Cigna Corporation) and not by reference to a Change of Control of any predecessor entity of Cigna Corporation.

(c) You must comply in all respects with the terms and conditions of this grant and the Covenant Agreement, including those contained in the Addendum.

(d) If you are resident or employed in a country that is a member of the European Union, the grant of the Units, these Terms and Conditions and the Covenant Agreement are intended to comply with the age discrimination provisions of the EU Equal Treatment Framework Directive, as implemented into local law (the “Age Discrimination Rules”). To the extent a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of these Terms and Conditions and the Covenant Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, under the Age Discrimination Rules, Cigna, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to revise or strike such provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted under local law.

3. Payment

(a) You have [ ] separate Payment Dates under this grant because the Units will vest in [ ] stages: [ ] on the [ ] anniversary of the Grant Date; [ ] on the [ ] anniversary of the Grant Date; and [ ] on the [ ] anniversary of the Grant Date.

(b) Any Units that vest on account of your death will be paid during the 90 day period immediately following your death to your surviving spouse or, if you have no surviving spouse when you die, to your estate unless otherwise provided under applicable law.

4. Dividend Equivalent Rights

(a) Subject to the forfeiture provisions of this paragraph, your right to receive payments for Dividend Equivalent Rights associated with a Unit will vest on the scheduled Payment Date for the Unit described in paragraph 3 (Scheduled Payment Date). If you forfeit a Unit, you will forfeit the right to any Dividend Equivalent Rights payments associated with the Unit. You will also forfeit the right to any Dividend Equivalent Rights payments associated with a Unit if:

(1) you have a Termination of Employment before the Scheduled Payment Date for the Unit (even if the Unit vests under paragraph 2);

(2) the Scheduled Payment Date for the Unit occurs before the Unit vests (because vesting is delayed); or

(3) you are on a leave of absence when the Unit vests.

(b) Cigna or a Subsidiary will make a lump sum cash payment to you for vested Dividend Equivalent Rights within 70 days after the Scheduled Payment Date. The payment will equal (1) the number of Dividend Equivalent Rights that vested on the Scheduled Payment Date multiplied by (2) the amount of any dividends declared by Cigna's Board and paid on one Share as to any dividend record dates that occur between the date of grant and the Scheduled Payment Date. No interest will be paid on any Dividend Equivalent Rights payments. The payments, less applicable taxes withheld, may be included in your regular paycheck or direct deposit.

5. Tax Withholding

(a) Section 8.4 of the Plan shall apply to any Tax-Related Items (as defined below) pertaining to the Units, the Shares issued in settlement of the Units or any Dividend Equivalent Rights that Cigna and/or your Employer are required to withhold under applicable local law. Upon the vesting or

payment of any Unit or part of a Unit, Cigna reserves the right to satisfy any liability for Tax-Related Items by withholding enough newly-issued Shares to cover all or part of the applicable liability for Tax-Related Items.

(b) Regardless of any action Cigna and/or your Employer take with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (Tax-Related Items), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility.

(2)Do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items; and

(3)May be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event.

If your country of residence (and/or your country of employment, if different) requires withholding of Tax-Related Items, Cigna shall satisfy any applicable withholding obligation as described in paragraph 5(a). In the event that withholding in Shares is prohibited or problematic under applicable law or otherwise may trigger adverse consequences to Cigna or your Employer, your Employer may withhold Tax-Related Items required to be withheld in cash from your regular salary and/or wages, or other amounts payable to you. By accepting the Units, you expressly consent to the withholding of applicable Tax-Related Items as provided for hereunder. You agree to pay Cigna or your Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that Cigna or your Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means described above.

17. Insider Trading Laws

By participating in the Plan, you expressly agree to comply with Cigna's Securities Transactions and Insider Trading Policy and any other of its policies regarding insider trading or personal account dealing applicable to you. Further, you expressly acknowledge and agree that, depending on your country of

residence or your broker’s, or where the Shares are listed, you may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market above laws which may affect your ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares, rights to the Shares (e.g., the Units) or rights linked to the value of the Shares, during such times you are considered to have, “inside information” or similar types of information regarding Cigna as defined by the laws or regulations in the applicable country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders you place before you possessed such information. Furthermore, you may be prohibited from (a) disclosing such information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (b) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities (including other employees of Cigna or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates).

20. Addendum

Notwithstanding any provisions of these Terms and Conditions to the contrary, the Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions for your country of residence (and country of employment, if different) set forth in an addendum to these Terms and Conditions (an “Addendum”). Further, if you transfer your residence and/or employment to another country reflected in an Addendum to these Terms and Conditions at the time of transfer, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to you to the extent Cigna determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law, rules and regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the award, the Plan and the Covenant Agreement (or Cigna may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate your transfer). In all circumstances, any applicable Addendum shall constitute part of these Terms and Conditions.

21. Additional Requirements

Cigna reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Units, any Shares acquired pursuant to the Units, and your participation in the Plan, to the extent Cigna determines, in its sole discretion, that such other requirements are necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law, rules and regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the award, the Plan and the Covenant Agreement.
