Form of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (DaVita Inc. 2020 Incentive Award Plan)

1.Grant of Performance Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to Grantee this award (the “Award”) of the target number of performance-based restricted stock units indicated on the front page (“Performance Stock Units”) under the Plan, subject to adjustment, forfeiture and the other terms and conditions set forth below and in the Plan. This Award represents Grantee’s right to receive shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”), subject to Grantee’s fulfillment of the performance, vesting and other conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2.Performance and Vesting Conditions. The number of Performance Stock Units that may be earned by and for which shares of Common Stock (“Shares”) become issuable to Grantee (the “Earned Units”) shall be based upon the achievement of the performance criteria as reviewed and approved by the Committee (and the independent directors of the Board, as applicable) and reflected in Exhibit B (the “Performance Goals”) over the performance period or periods reflected in Exhibit B (the “Performance Period”) and the remaining terms of this Agreement (the “Vesting Conditions”). The determination by the Committee with respect to the achievement of the Performance Goals shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the end of the applicable Performance Period after all necessary Company information is available.

3.Conversion of Performance Stock Units and Stock Issuance. To the extent that the Committee determines that some or all of the Performance Goals and the Vesting Conditions have been achieved, then as of the Vesting Date or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter (but in any event no later than 60 days following the applicable Vesting Date or the vesting event, subject to Section 12 below and Exhibit B), the Company shall issue the number of Shares issuable to Grantee (the “Shares”), for the Earned Units determined pursuant to the Committee’s determination of the level of achievement of the Performance Goals, subject to Section 6 below.

4.Termination of Employment. Except as set forth in Exhibit B or pursuant to the terms of any written employment agreement between the Grantee and the Company or an Affiliate thereof in effect on the Grant Date, Performance Stock Units will cease vesting upon the date Grantee’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate is terminated for any reason. Upon the date that Grantee ceases being an Employee for any reason other than as expressly contemplated in Exhibit B or pursuant to the terms of any written employment agreement between the Grantee and the Company or an Affiliate thereof in effect on the Grant Date, Grantee will forfeit his/her/their right to any unvested Performance Stock Units.

5.Rights to Shares. Grantee shall not have any rights to the Shares subject to the Award, including without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, unless and until the Shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by or for the benefit of Grantee. The Performance Stock Units shall include a right to Dividend Equivalents equal to the value of any dividends paid on the Common Stock for which the dividend record date occurs between the Grant Date and the date the Performance Stock Units are settled or forfeited. Subject to vesting, each Dividend Equivalent entitles Grantee to receive the equivalent cash value of any such dividends paid on the number of Shares underlying the Performance Stock Units that are outstanding during such period. Dividend Equivalents will be accrued (without interest) and will be subject to the same conditions as the Performance Stock Units to which they are attributable, including, without limitation, the vesting conditions and the provisions governing the time and form of settlement of the Performance Stock Units.

(a)Generally. Grantee is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes under all applicable federal, state, local or other laws or regulations (the “Required Tax Payments”) owed in connection with the Award, regardless of any action the Company or any of its Affiliates takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Award. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable pursuant to the Award. The Company and its Affiliates do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the Award to reduce or eliminate Grantee’s tax liability.

(b)Payment of Withholding Taxes. As a condition precedent to the delivery to the Grantee of any Shares upon vesting of the Award, the Grantee shall satisfy the Required Tax Payments by the Company withholding from the Shares otherwise to be delivered to the Grantee pursuant to the Award a whole number of Shares having a Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the obligation to withhold or pay taxes first arises in connection with the Award (the “Tax Date”), equal to the Required Tax Payments, with the number of Shares withheld rounded up to the nearest whole Share to satisfy the Required Tax Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company (or, in the case of a Grantee subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Committee) may, in its sole discretion, establish alternative methods for the Grantee to satisfy the Required Tax Payments, which may include, without limitation, a cash payment, proceeds from the sale of Shares otherwise issuable to Grantee, or delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of previously owned whole Shares, in each case, having an aggregate value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the Required Tax Payments.

7.Assignment. Grantee’s interest in this Award may not be assigned or alienated, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.

8.Clawback Provision. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Grantee shall be subject to the Company’s Compensation Clawback Policy or other clawback policy adopted by the Company, each as may be amended from time to time (the “Clawback Policy”). The provisions of this Section 8 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to the Company in the event Grantee violates the Policies (as defined herein below), or any laws or regulations.

9.Amendments. The Company may amend the provisions of this Agreement at any time; provided that, an amendment that would adversely affect the Grantee’s rights under this Agreement in a material manner shall be subject to the written consent of the Grantee.

10.Change of Control of the Company. In the event of a Change of Control, the number of Earned Units that are assigned to each Performance Goal issuable shall be determined as specified in the Relative Total Shareholder Return Performance Condition, as set forth in Exhibit B, in the event the Performance Period has not concluded as of the date of such Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Performance Period has concluded on or prior to the date of the Change of Control, then the Earned Units shall vest and be determined based on the achievement of the applicable Performance Goal during the completed Performance Period.

Grantee further agrees that during the Restricted Period, Grantee shall not own, manage, control, operate, invest in, acquire an interest in, or otherwise engage in, act for, or act on behalf of any Person (other than the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates) engaged in any activity that Grantee was responsible for during the last five years of Grantee’s employment with or engagement by the Company in the Restricted Territory where such activity is competitive with the activities carried on by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

Grantee acknowledges that during the Restricted Period, Grantee may be exposed to confidential information and/or trade secrets relating to business areas of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates that are different from and in addition to the areas in which Grantee primarily works for the Company (the “Additional Protected Areas of Business”). As a result, Grantee agrees he/she/they shall not own, manage, control, operate, invest in, acquire an interest in, or otherwise act for, act on behalf, or provide the same or similar services to, any Person that engages in the Additional Protected Areas of Business.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11(a) prohibits Grantee from passively owning not in excess of 2% in the aggregate of any company’s stock or other ownership interests that are publicly traded on any national or regional stock exchange.

For purposes of this Section 11(a), “Restricted Territory” means the territory or territories or other geographic areas in which the Company does business and as to which Grantee provided services or had a material presence or influence, and/or about which Grantee learned confidential information and/or trade secrets. Grantee acknowledges and agrees that, given Grantee’s role at the Company, the geographical limitations and duration of this covenant not to compete are reasonable and appropriate, it being understood that the business of the Company can be, and is, practiced throughout the United States, and that the restrictions set forth herein will not impose any undue hardship on Grantee.

To the extent that the provisions of this Section 11(a) conflict with any other agreement signed by Grantee relating to non-competition, the provisions that are most protective of the Company’s, and any of its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’, interests shall govern.

This Section 11(a) (Non-competition) and the rights and obligations of Company hereunder may be assigned by Company and shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by any such assignee, as well as any of Company’s successors in interest. This Section 11(a) (Non-competition) and the rights and obligations of Grantee hereunder may not be assigned by Grantee, but are binding upon Grantee's heirs, administrators, executors, and personal representatives.]

(b)Non-Solicitation. Grantee agrees that during the term of his/her/their employment and/or service to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and for the one-year period following the termination of his/her/their employment and/or service for any reason (whether voluntary or involuntary), Grantee shall not (i) solicit any of the Company’s, or any of its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’, employees with whom Grantee worked on more than a de minimis basis or whom Grantee directly or indirectly supervised while with the Company to work for any Person; (ii) hire any of the Company’s, or any of its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’, employees with whom Grantee worked on more than a de minimis basis or whom Grantee directly or indirectly supervised while with the Company to work (as an employee or an independent contractor) for any Person; or (iii) take any action that may reasonably result in any of the Company’s, or any of its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’, employees with whom Grantee worked on more than a de minimis basis or whom Grantee directly or indirectly supervised while with the Company going to work (as an employee or an independent contractor) for any Person.

(c)Non-Disclosure. In addition, Grantee agrees not to disclose or use for his/her/their own benefit or purposes or for the benefit or purposes of any Person other than the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, any trade secrets, information, data, or other confidential information relating to customers, development, programs, costs, marketing, trading, investment, sales activities, promotion, credit and financial data, financing methods, plans, or the business and affairs of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (“Information”); provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to (i) Information which is not unique to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) Information which is generally known to the industry or the public other than as a result of Grantee’s breach of this covenant; or (iii) disclosure that is required by any applicable law, rule or regulation. If Grantee receives such a request to produce Information in his/her/their possession, Grantee shall provide the Company reasonable advance notice, in writing, prior to producing said Information, so as to give the Company reasonable time to object to Grantee producing said Information. Grantee also agrees that Grantee will not become employed by or enter into service with any Person other than the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates in which Grantee will be obligated to disclose or use any Information, or where such disclosure would be inevitable because of the nature of the position. Grantee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (1) is made (a) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and (b) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (2) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Disclosures to attorneys, made under seal, or pursuant to court order are also protected in certain circumstances under 18 U.S.C. § 1833.

(d)Protected Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement prohibits or limits Grantee’s ability to file a charge or complaint with any federal, state or local governmental agency or commission, including but not limited to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This Agreement also does not prohibit or limit Grantee’s ability to communicate with any federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (including but not limited to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), or to otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by such an agency or commission (including but not limited to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), including providing documents or other information. Moreover, nothing in this agreement prevents Grantee from discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that Grantee has reason to believe is unlawful.

(e)Remedies. Grantee agrees that any breach of Section [11(a),] 11(b), or 11(c) will result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Company and its affiliates for which damages alone are an inadequate remedy and cannot readily be calculated. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees that the Company and its affiliates shall be entitled to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent any such actual or threatened breach, without posting a bond or other security or limiting other available remedies.

(f)Termination of Agreement. This Agreement and the Award shall terminate effective on the date on which Grantee enters into any activity in breach of Section [11(a),] 11(b), or 11(c). This Agreement and the Award shall also terminate if at any time during Grantee’s employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or within one (1) year after the termination of such employment for any reason (whether voluntary or involuntary), Grantee (i) is convicted of a felony; (ii) has been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction of having committed an act of fraud or dishonesty resulting or intending to result directly or indirectly in personal enrichment at the expense of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; or (iii) is excluded from participating in any federal health care program. In any of the aforementioned cases, in addition to injunctive relief as forth above, the Company may seek an order requiring Grantee to repay the Company any value, gain or other consideration received or realized by Grantee as a result of this Award or any Shares received pursuant to the Award. The provisions of this Section 11(f) are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to the Company in the event Grantee violates the Policies (as defined herein below), or any laws or regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other language in this Agreement, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 11(f) does not supersede or preclude the application or enforceability of Section 8 or the Clawback Policy.

(g)Advice of Counsel. Grantee acknowledges and agrees that Grantee has carefully read and fully understands all of the provisions of this Section 11 and that Grantee has been advised to and/or has obtained representation by counsel in connection with Grantee’s execution of this Agreement.

(h)Governing Law. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 11 shall be construed and regulated under and by the laws of the state where Grantee resides. The parties agree that any and all actions or proceedings to enforce Section 11 shall be brought in the state or federal court where Grantee resides.

12.Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Award are intended to be exempt from or meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, as applicable, and shall be interpreted and construed consistent with that intent and each settlement hereunder shall be considered a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that the right to any issuance of Shares or payment to Grantee hereunder provides for non-qualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the issuance or payment shall be made in accordance with the following:

If Grantee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code on the date of Grantee’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code (the “Separation Date”), then no such issuance of Shares or payment shall be made during the period beginning on the Separation Date and ending on the date that is six months following the Separation Date or, if earlier, on the date of Grantee’s death, if the earlier making of such issuance of Shares or payment would result in tax penalties being imposed on Grantee under Section 409A of the Code. The amount of any issuance of Shares or payment that would otherwise be made during this period shall instead be made on the first business day following the date that is six months following the Separation Date or, if earlier, the date of Grantee’s death. If the Grantee is subject to an employment or other agreement that specifies a time and form of payment that differs from the time and form of payment set forth in Exhibit B, then this Award shall be settled in accordance with such employment or other agreement to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code in a manner permissible under the Plan.

13.Compliance with Policies. It is understood and agreed upon that at all times Grantee will act in full compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures as may be in effect from time to time, including without limitation, the Company’s Code of Conduct, Joint Venture Arrangements Policy,

Medical Director Agreements Compliance Handbook, Acceptance of Gifts Policy and/or credentialing process (collectively, the “Policies”). If Grantee’s conduct, whether related to the Award granted under this Agreement or otherwise, materially violates the requirements of the Policies, as determined by the Committee (with respect to a Grantee that is an “officer” under Section 16 of the Exchange Act) or the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Compliance Officer or Chief Legal Officer (with respect to a Grantee that is not an “officer” under Section 16 of the Exchange Act), then the Company may require Grantee to forfeit any unvested portion of the Award granted under this Agreement and be subject to immediate disciplinary action, up to and including termination. The provisions of this Section 13 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to the Company in the event Grantee violates the Policies or any laws or regulations. If at any time Grantee has questions or concerns about the provisions in this Section 13, or suspects any improper conduct related to the Policies, Grantee should immediately contact his/her/their supervisor or Team Quest. Grantee also may anonymously and confidentially call the Company’s Compliance Hotline.

14.Compliance with Law. No Shares shall be issued and delivered pursuant to this Award unless and until all applicable registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, all applicable listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, and all other requirements of law or of any regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over such issuance and delivery, shall have been complied with. In particular, the Committee may require certain investment (or other) representations and undertakings in connection with the issuance of securities in connection with the Plan and this Award in order to comply with applicable law.

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law, such provision will be applied to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and shall automatically be deemed amended in a manner consistent with its objectives to the extent necessary to conform to any limitations required under applicable law. Furthermore, if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal under any applicable law, such provision shall be null and void to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law, but the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

16.Electronic Delivery and Execution. Grantee will not be able to initiate any stock transactions related to this Award until Grantee has accepted the terms of this Agreement. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to this Award or future awards made under the Plan by electronic means or request Grantee’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, agrees to participate in the Plan through any online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.

Shares issuable under this Agreement will be determined based on the level of performance achieved on specified Performance Goals. Except as set forth in this Exhibit B or the terms of any written employment agreement between the Grantee and the Company or an Affiliate thereof in effect on the Grant Date, vesting in the right to receive the number of shares so determined shall be contingent on Grantee’s continued employment by the Company on the Vesting Date (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be the date on which the Award is earned).

For purposes of this Exhibit, “Cause” shall mean: (i) a material breach by Grantee of his/her/their duties and responsibilities which do not differ in any material respect from the duties and responsibilities of Grantee during the ninety (90) days immediately prior to a Change of Control (other than as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness) which is demonstrably willful and deliberate on Grantee’s part, which is committed in bad faith or without reasonable belief that such breach is in the best interests of the Company and which is not remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from the Company specifying such breach; (ii) willful misconduct or gross negligence which results in material harm to the Company; (iii) the conviction of Grantee of, or a plea of nolo contendere by Grantee to, a felony or other crime involving fraud or dishonesty; or (iv) willful violation of Company policies which results in material harm to the Company.

In the event of a Change of Control, this Award shall automatically vest in its entirety upon the earlier of the following two events: (i) immediately prior to the effective date of a Change of Control if the successor in such Change of Control (the “Acquiror”) fails to effectively assume, convert or replace this Award, or

To be effectively assumed in the Change of Control, the award received in exchange for the Award in connection with a Change of Control: (i) must be of the same type as the Award; (ii) must have a value intended to preserve the value of the Award; (iii) must relate to publicly traded equity securities of the Company (or the Acquiror or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or the Acquiror); and (iv) must have other terms and conditions that are not less favorable to the Grantee than the terms and conditions of the Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change of Control but excluding the Performance Conditions). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the replaced Award may take the form of a continuation of the Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions for effectively assuming the Award

have been satisfied shall be made by the Board, as constituted immediately before the Change of Control, in its sole discretion.

In the event that (i) the Grantee has remained continuously employed with the Company for at least one year from the Grant Date, (ii) the Grantee has satisfied the Rule of 65 (as defined below) at the time of his/her/their termination of employment and such termination of employment is not for Cause, and (iii) the Grantee is an “officer” under Section 16 of the Exchange Act at the time of such termination of employment, then the Award shall vest and shall be settled on its normal Vesting Date; provided, however, that if following the Grantee’s termination of employment under this paragraph, there is a Change of Control and the Award is not effectively assumed, converted or replaced and the Change of Control is a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, then the vested Award shall be settled upon such Change of Control to the extent permitted without adverse tax consequences by Section 409A of the Code, with the number of Shares issuable as determined above under Change of Control Vesting. If the Grantee satisfies the requirements of the preceding sentence but the Grantee’s termination of employment occurs prior to the first anniversary of the Grant Date, then the number of Condition Target PSUs eligible for vesting shall be prorated based on the number of full months from the Grant Date to the Grantee’s termination of employment divided by 12.

“Rule of 65” shall mean that the sum of the Grantee’s age and years of service equals or exceeds 65, with a minimum age of 55 and a minimum of five years of continuous service.

In the event of the Grantee’s death or Disability while employed by the Company and the Grantee is an “officer” under Section 16 of the Exchange Act at the time of such death or Disability, the Condition Target PSUs shall vest and be settled within 60 days following such death or Disability (or, if later and to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code, within 60 days following the conclusion of the Performance Period applicable to the underlying Performance Goals); provided, however, that if the Grantee’s death or Disability occurs following the conclusion of the Performance Period, the Award shall vest based on the achievement of the applicable Performance Goal during such completed Performance Period.

“Disability” shall mean that the Grantee is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.
