WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Team Health Holdings, Inc. Amended and Restated 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which Plan is incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan; and

WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to grant the restricted stock unit award provided for herein (the “RSU Award”) to the Participant pursuant to the Plan and the terms set forth herein.

(a)    Ordinary Vesting; Treatment Upon Certain Terminations of Employment. Subject to the Participant’s continued employment with the Company (“Employment”), the RSUs shall vest and become non-forfeitable with respect to fifty percent (50%) of the RSUs on each of the following dates (the “Scheduled Vesting Dates”): (i) the 2^nd anniversary of the Date of Grant, and (ii) the 3^rd anniversary of the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Participant’s Employment is terminated (x) by the Company without Cause, (y) due to the Participant’s resignation for Good Reason (either of (x) or (y), a “Qualifying Termination”), in each case, prior to a Change in Control, or (z) due to death or Disability at any time prior to either or both of the Scheduled Vesting Dates, then the RSUs shall be deemed to vest on the termination date such that, after taking into account any previously vested portion of the RSU Award, the Participant will have vested in an amount equal to the greater of (A) forty-two percent (42%) of the total number of Shares initially covered by the RSU Award, and (B) the pro-rata portion of the total number of Shares initially covered by the RSU Award calculated based on the portion of the three (3) year vesting period commencing on the Date of Grant and ending on the date of termination, measured on a daily basis.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause,” “Good Reason,” and “Disability” shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the employment agreement by and among the Participant, AmeriTeam Services, LLC, and the Company, dated as of September 2, 2016, as may be amended from time to time (the “Employment Agreement”).

 

(c)    Other Terminations of Employment. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company terminates for any reason other than for the reasons stated in Sections 2(a) or (b) above, all RSUs, to the extent not previously vested, shall be forfeited by the Participant without consideration.

3.    Delivery of Shares Underlying the RSUs. Upon or as soon as practicable following the vesting of RSUs on a Scheduled Vesting Date, a Qualifying Termination or upon a Change in Control Termination, as applicable under Section 2 above, the Company shall deliver to the Participant a number of Shares corresponding to such vested number of RSUs in satisfaction of the Company’s obligations to the Participant in respect of such RSUs. Certificates evidencing the Shares delivered upon settlement of the RSUs as described in the preceding sentence shall be issued by the Company and shall be registered in the Participant’s name on the stock transfer books of the Company promptly after the relevant Share delivery date; and no certificates shall be issued for fractional Shares.

The Participant shall not be entitled to receive any Shares or other payments with respect to forfeited RSUs.

4.     No Rights as a Stockholder Prior to Settlement; Dividend Equivalent Rights.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Participant shall be entitled to receive dividend equivalent payments with respect to outstanding RSUs as described in this Section 4. In the event that the Company pays any cash or in-kind dividends (including dividends paid in Shares) on Shares while the RSUs are outstanding, the Company shall credit to a notional account the cash and in-kind payments that would have been payable on the Shares underlying the RSUs if such Shares would have been outstanding at the time of dividend payment, and then the Company shall pay to the Participant such cash or in‑kind amounts when, and if, such corresponding Shares underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Participant pursuant to Section 3. In the event that the RSUs are forfeited pursuant to Section 2, any corresponding dividend equivalent payment rights shall also be forfeited.

5.     No Right to Continued Employment. The granting of the RSUs evidenced by this Agreement shall impose no obligation on the Company or any Affiliate to continue the Employment of the Participant and shall not lessen or affect the Company’s or its Affiliate’s right to terminate the Employment of such Participant

6.    Transferability. The RSUs shall be subject to transfer restrictions as set forth in Section 15 of the Plan.

7.    Withholding. The Participant may be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate and the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold, any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the RSUs, their grant or vesting or any payment or transfer with
