Dear Christine,

Omnicell Inc. is pleased to offer you the Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer position reporting to Randall Lipps. Your bi-weekly salary will be $13,076.92, less payroll deductions and all required and authorized withholdings, which is an annual equivalent of $340,000.00. You will be awarded, subject to approval by our Board of Directors (or a committee thereof), an initial equity award, 50% in the form of performance stock units (“PSUs”) and 50% in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”).  The grant will have a fair market value of $2,000,000.00 based upon the value of the shares on the date of grant.  Upon approval, PSUs will become exercisable, when and if a Board-approved performance metric is achieved by Omnicell, measured in March of the subsequent year, and vest over a four year period. RSUs will vest automatically in 6 month intervals beginning on the first to occur after grant; June or December 15.  Note that your grant and its associated vesting is subject to your continued employment with Omnicell and the terms and conditions of the Plan, your underlying grant notice and Omnicell’s standard form of award agreement for similarly-situated employees of Omnicell.
Your target start date for employment is February 22, 2021. Please notify us immediately if that changes.
You will be eligible to participate in the Omnicell 2010 Quarterly Executive Bonus Plan wherein you may receive a bonus in the amount of up to 90% of the base salary paid to you during the quarter, pending Board approval and paid out pursuant to such Bonus Plan terms; provided, among other things, the company's and your personal objectives are met. Please note that participation in the Executive Bonus Plan is at the discretion of Omnicell's Board of Directors and that they reserve the right to make changes to such bonus plan at any time. As a new hire, you are eligible to participate in this bonus program in the first quarter where you are employed as of the 15th calendar day of the 2nd month of the calendar quarter and have approved goals established with the Board of Directors.
Omnicell provides an annual executive perquisite allowance of $6,000.00 which is paid out on a quarterly basis. The quarterly amount may be prorated based on the start date within the quarter. This allowance may be used in your discretion for health club memberships or any other appropriate perquisite, and will not be grossed up for tax purposes. You will also be eligible to participate in Omnicell’s contracted executive financial management services provided by Ayco, a Goldman Sachs Company. Perquisites expenses over and above the allowance will only be reimbursed on an exceptional basis at the discretion of Omnicell.
As an executive officer at Omnicell you are also eligible for change of control benefits set forth in our executive Change of Control Agreement, and are eligible to receive executive officer indemnity protection under our Indemnity Agreement provided separately.
If your employment is terminated without cause you will be eligible to receive severance pay in accordance with Omnicell's then current and published Omnicell’s Amended and Restated Severance Benefit Plan provided you agree to abide by the terms of such plan, including but not limited to agreeing to execute Omnicell's standard waiver and release agreement. Under the current plan your position is offered the equivalent to twelve (12) months' salary at your base rate of pay in effect immediately prior to termination.
As an exempt Executive Vice President, Chief People Officer you will not be eligible to accrue vacation under the accrued vacation policy that the Omnicell offers to certain other employment positions.  Instead, you will be eligible to take reasonable time off with pay under the Company’s nonaccrual vacation policy.  Generally, you will have no set guideline as to how much time off you will be permitted to take; however, “unused” vacation time will not be carried over from one year to the next, nor will any vacation time be paid out upon termination.  You will receive a written policy with detailed information on this program, which the Company believes is the best approach to allow you to take time off yet adequately cover your responsibilities.
