THIS AGREEMENT is made as of the Grant Date, by and between Veradigm Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), and [______________] (the participant).

WHEREAS, in recognition of your services to the Company, the Company considers it desirable and in its best interests that the participant be given a proprietary interest in the Company and an incentive to advance the interests of the Company by possessing units that are settled in shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in accordance with the Company’s 2024 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, it is agreed by and between the parties as follows:

Cause. “Cause” shall mean (i) the willful or grossly negligent failure by the participant to perform his or her duties and obligations hereunder in any material respect, other than any such failure resulting from the disability of the participant, (ii) the participant’s conviction of a crime or offense involving the property of the Company, or any crime or offense constituting a felony or involving fraud or moral turpitude; (iii) the participant’s violation of any law, which violation is materially and demonstrably injurious to the operations or reputation of the Company; or (iv) the participant’s material violation of any generally recognized policy of the Company.

Good Reason. “Good Reason” shall mean (i) any significant diminution in the participant’s responsibilities from and after the date of the Change in Control, (ii) any material reduction in the annual salary or target incentive cash compensation of the participant from and after the date of the Change in Control or (iii) any requirement after the date of the Change in Control (or prior thereto in connection with the Change in Control) to relocate to a location that is more than fifty (50) miles from the principal work location of the participant; provided, however, that the occurrence of any such condition shall not constitute Good Reason unless the participant provides written notice to the Company of the existence of such condition not later than 90 days after the initial existence of such condition, and the Company shall have failed to remedy such condition within 30 days after receipt of such notice.

In the event that there is any change in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Company without new consideration to the Company (such as by stock dividends or stock split-ups), then the number of unvested and restricted stock units subject to this Restricted Stock Award shall be adjusted in proportion to such change in issued shares.

If the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined, or be changed into another kind of stock of the Company or into equity securities of another corporation, whether through recapitalization, reorganization, sale, merger, consolidation, etc., the Company shall cause adequate provision to be made whereby the unvested restricted stock units subject to this Agreement shall be adjusted equitably so that the securities received upon vesting shall be the same as if the vesting had occurred immediately prior to such recapitalization, reorganization, sale, merger, consolidation, etc.

It is intended that any amounts payable under this Restricted Stock Unit Award will be exempt from the provisions of Code Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the treasury regulations relating thereto so as not to subject the participant to the payment of interest and tax penalty which may be imposed under Code Section 409A, and each payment hereunder shall be considered a separate payment. In furtherance of this interest, to the extent that any regulations or other guidance issued under Code Section 409A after the date of this Restricted Stock Unit Award would result in the participant being subject to payment of interest and tax penalty under Code Section 409A, the parties agree to amend this Restricted Stock Unit Award in order to bring this Restricted Stock Unit Award into compliance with Code Section 409A. No amount shall be payable pursuant to the termination of the participant’s employment unless such termination constitutes a separation from service under Section 409A. To the extent any amounts payable upon the participant’s separation from service are nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A, and if the participant is at such time a specified employee under Section 409A, then to the extent required under Section 409A payment of such amounts shall be postponed until six (6) months following the date of the participant’s separation from service (or until any earlier date of the participant’s death), upon which date all such postponed amounts shall be paid to the participant in a lump sum, and any remaining payments due shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. The determination of whether the participant is a specified employee shall be made by the Company in accordance with Section 409A.

VERADIGM, INC.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

Investment Representation Statement

Holder:    _____________________

Amount:   _____________________

Date:    _____________________

In connection with the acquisition of restricted stock units with respect to Veradigm, Inc. (the “RSUs”), the undersigned Holder represents to the Company the following:

1. The Holder is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the RSUs and the underlying Common Stock. The Holder is acquiring the RSUs and the underlying Common Stock for investment for the Holder’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

2. The Holder acknowledges and understands that the RSUs and the underlying Common Stock constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Holder’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, the Holder understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if the Holder’s representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold the Common Stock acquired upon vesting of the RSUs for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the underlying Common Stock, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future. The Holder further understands that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Holder further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Common Stock underlying the RSUs. The Holder understands that any certificate or other document or instrument evidencing the Common Stock will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Common Stock unless they are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, and any other legend required under applicable state securities laws.

3. The Holder is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and are available on the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov). The Common Stock may be resold in certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the resale to occur not less than six months after the later of the date the shares were sold by the Company or the date the shares were sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the case of acquisition of the Shares by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who subsequently holds the Shares less than six months and subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Exchange Act); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3) the number of shares being sold during any three month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable.

4. The Holder further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. The Holder understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.

5. The Holder is an “Accredited Investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and certifies that (check all appropriate descriptions that apply):

   The Holder is a natural person whose individual net worth, or joint net worth with his or her spouse or spousal equivalent¹, exceeds $1,000,000. For purposes of the foregoing, “net worth” means the excess of total assets at fair market value (including personal and real property, but excluding the estimated fair market value of a person’s primary home) over total liabilities. Total liabilities excludes any mortgage on the primary home in an amount of up to the home’s estimated fair market value as long as the mortgage was incurred more than 60 days before the Securities are purchased, but includes (i) any mortgage amount in excess of the home’s fair market value and (ii) any mortgage amount that was borrowed during the 60-day period before the closing date for the sale of Securities for the purpose of investing in the Securities.

13

   The Holder is a natural person who had individual income exceeding $200,000 in each of the last two calendar years, and the Holer has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current calendar year. For purposes of the foregoing, “income” means annual adjusted gross income, as reported for federal income tax purposes, plus (i) the amount of any tax-exempt interest income received, (ii) the amount of losses claimed as a limited partner in a limited partnership, (iii) any deduction claimed for depletion, (iv) amounts contributed to an IRA or Keogh retirement plan, (v) alimony paid, and (vi) any amount by which income from long-term capital gains has been reduced in arriving at adjusted gross income pursuant to the provisions of Section 1202 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

   The Holder is a natural person who had joint income with his or her spouse or spousal equivalent exceeding $300,000 in each of the last two calendar years, and the Holder have a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current calendar year. For purposes of the foregoing, “income” has the same meaning as defined in immediately preceding item.

14

Exhibit B

The Restricted Stock Unit Award will become vested on the latest of the dates set forth in Section 1 and Section 2 below (each, a “Vesting Date”), provided that the participant remains continuously employed by the Company or its subsidiaries from the Grant Date through the applicable Vesting Date.

Subject to Section 2, below, the Restricted Stock Unit Award will vest in substantially equal installments as follows:

Notwithstanding the foregoing and except in connection with a Change in Control, the applicable portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award will not vest or become unrestricted until the Company becomes current with its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Additional Condition”). Any portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award that previously failed to vest due to the Company having not satisfied the Additional Condition will vest and become unrestricted upon the satisfaction of the Additional Condition, subject to the participant remaining continuously employed by the Company or its subsidiaries through such date.

The Holder further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. The Holder understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.

5. The Holder is an “Accredited Investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and certifies that (check all appropriate descriptions that apply):

   The Holder is a natural person whose individual net worth, or joint net worth with his or her spouse or spousal equivalent¹, exceeds $1,000,000. For purposes of the foregoing, “net worth” means the excess of total assets at fair market value (including personal and real property, but excluding the estimated fair market value of a person’s primary home) over total liabilities. Total liabilities excludes any mortgage on the primary home in an amount of up to the home’s estimated fair market value as long as the mortgage was incurred more than 60 days before the Securities are purchased, but includes (i) any mortgage amount in excess of the home’s fair market value and (ii) any mortgage amount that was borrowed during the 60-day period before the closing date for the sale of Securities for the purpose of investing in the Securities.

2

   The Holder is a natural person who had individual income exceeding $200,000 in each of the last two calendar years, and the Holer has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current calendar year. For purposes of the foregoing, “income” means annual adjusted gross income, as reported for federal income tax purposes, plus (i) the amount of any tax-exempt interest income received, (ii) the amount of losses claimed as a limited partner in a limited partnership, (iii) any deduction claimed for depletion, (iv) amounts contributed to an IRA or Keogh retirement plan, (v) alimony paid, and (vi) any amount by which income from long-term capital gains has been reduced in arriving at adjusted gross income pursuant to the provisions of Section 1202 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

   The Holder is a natural person who had joint income with his or her spouse or spousal equivalent exceeding $300,000 in each of the last two calendar years, and the Holder have a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current calendar year. For purposes of the foregoing, “income” has the same meaning as defined in immediately preceding item.

Exhibit B

The Restricted Stock Unit Award will become vested on the latest of the dates set forth in each of the Performance-Based Vesting Condition and the Additional Condition described below (each, a “Vesting Date”), provided that the participant remains continuously employed by the Company or its subsidiaries from the Grant Date through the applicable Vesting Date.

Performance-Based Vesting Condition:

Following the end of the Performance Period, the Company’s Compensation Committee will certify the level of the Performance Measure achieved by the Company. The performance-based restricted stock units subject to vesting during the Performance Period will be subject to forfeiture and cancellation by the Company if the Company’s performance during the Performance Period does not meet or exceed the threshold percentile rank of the Performance Measure for the Performance Period. Performance at or above the threshold level will result performance-based restricted stock units becoming vested as set forth below, and shares underlying such vested performance-based restricted stock units shall be distributed following completion of the certification described above.

2. Additional Definitions.

a. “Comparison Group” shall mean the companies that comprise the Russell 3000 Index on the Grant Date, as may be adjusted as described below.

b. “Performance Period” means the three-year period commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Grant Date.

c. “Total Shareholder Return” or “TSR” means total shareholder return as applied to the Company or any company in the Comparison Group, meaning stock price appreciation from the beginning to the end of the Performance Period, plus dividends and distributions made or declared (assuming such dividends or distributions are reinvested in the common stock of the Company or any company in the Comparison Group) during the Performance Period, expressed as a percentage return. Except as modified in Section 4(d), below, for purposes of computing TSR, the stock price at the beginning and end of the Performance Period will be the average price of a share of common stock over the 20 trading days ending on the first or last day of the Performance Period, as applicable, adjusted for changes in capital structure; provided, however,

4

that TSR will be negative one hundred percent (-100%) if a company: (i) files for bankruptcy, reorganization, or liquidation under any chapter of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; (ii) is the subject of an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding that is not dismissed within 30 days; (iii) is the subject of a stockholder approved plan of liquidation or dissolution; or (iv) ceases to conduct substantial business operations.

3. Calculation. For purposes of the award, the number of shares earned will be calculated as follows:

FIRST: For the Company and for each other company in the Comparison Group, determine the TSR for the Performance Period.

SECOND: Rank the TSR values determined in the first step from low to high (with the company having the lowest TSR being ranked number 1, the company with the second lowest TSR ranked number 2, and so on) and determine the Company’s percentile rank based upon its position in the list by dividing the Company’s position by the total number of companies (including the Company) in the Comparison Group and rounding the quotient to the nearest hundredth. For example, if the Company were ranked 60 on the list out of 80 companies (including the Company), its percentile rank would be 75%.

THIRD: Plot the percentile rank for the Company determined in the second step into the appropriate band in the left-hand column of the table below and determine the number of shares earned as a percent of target, which is the figure in the right-hand column of the table below corresponding to that percentile rank.

5

3

4. Rules. The following rules apply to the computation of the number of shares earned:

a. If the Company’s absolute TSR is negative over the Performance Period, payout shall not exceed 100% of target for that Performance Period. If the Company’s percentile rank is greater than or equal to 50 for such Performance Period, then the payout shall be 100%.

b. The minimum earnout is zero and the maximum earnout is 200% of target. There is no minimum number of shares or other consideration that recipient will receive, and no shares will be earned if the percentile rank is 25^th percentile or lower in a Performance Period.

c. For purposes of computing Total Shareholder Return for the Company and each other company in the Comparison Group, the stock price at the beginning and at the end of the Performance Period will, subject to Section 2 of the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, be determined as the 20-day average closing price of the stock on each of the 20 consecutive trading days ending on and including the first or last day of the Performance Period, as applicable.

d. Companies shall be removed from the Comparison Group if they undergo a Specified Corporate Change. A company that is removed from the Comparison Group before the measurement date will not be included at all in the computation of the Performance Measure. A company in the Comparison Group will be deemed to have undergone a “Specified Corporate Change” if it:

The Company shall rely on press releases, public filings, website postings, and other reasonably reliable information available regarding a peer company in making a determination that a Specified Corporate Change has occurred.

Additional Vesting Condition

Notwithstanding the foregoing and except in connection with a Change in Control, the applicable portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award will not vest or become unrestricted until both (i) the Company becomes current with its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Additional Condition”). Any portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award that previously failed to vest due to the Company having not satisfied the Additional Conditions will vest and become unrestricted upon the satisfaction of the Additional Conditions, subject to the participant remaining continuously employed by the Company or its subsidiaries through such date.

All such interpretations, rules, regulations and conditions shall be conclusive and binding on all parties.

The Committee may delegate some or all of its power and authority hereunder to the Board or, subject to applicable law, to a subcommittee of the Board, a member of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or other executive officer of the Company as the Committee deems appropriate; provided, however, that the Committee may not delegate its power and authority to a member of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or other executive officer of the Company with regard to the selection for participation in this Plan of an officer, director or other person subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or decisions concerning the timing, pricing or amount of an award to such an officer, director or other person.

1.4. Eligibility. Participants in this Plan shall consist of such officers, other employees, Non-Employee Directors, independent contractors, and persons expected to become officers, other employees, Non-Employee Directors and independent contractors, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as the Committee in its sole discretion may select from time to time. The Committee’s selection of a person to participate in this Plan at any time shall not require the Committee to select such person to participate in this Plan at any other time. Except as otherwise provided in an Agreement, for purposes of this Plan, references to employment by the Company shall also mean employment by a Subsidiary, and references to employment shall include service as a Non-Employee Director or independent contractor. The Company may determine, in its sole discretion, whether a participant is deemed to be employed during a leave of absence.

1.5. Shares Available. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.7 and to all other limits set forth in this Section 1.5, the number of shares of Common Stock that shall initially be available for all awards under this Plan shall be 5,000,000. The number of shares of Common Stock that remain available for future grants under the Plan shall be reduced by the sum of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that become subject to outstanding options, outstanding Free-Standing SARs, outstanding Stock Awards and outstanding Performance Units denominated in shares of Common Stock, other than Substitute Awards.

To the extent that shares of Common Stock subject to an outstanding option, SAR or stock award granted under this Plan are not issued or delivered by reason of (i) the expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such award (excluding shares subject to an option cancelled upon settlement in shares of a related tandem SAR or shares subject to a tandem SAR cancelled upon exercise of a related option) or (ii) the settlement of such award in cash, then such shares of Common Stock shall again be available under this Plan; provided, however, that shares of Common Stock subject to an award under this Plan shall not again be available under this Plan if such shares are (x) shares that were subject to a stock-settled SAR and were not issued or delivered upon the net settlement of such SAR, (y) shares delivered to or withheld by the Company to pay the purchase price or the withholding taxes related to an outstanding award and (z) shares repurchased by the Company on the open market with the proceeds of an option exercise. The number of shares subject to outstanding awards granted under a Prior Plan that are not issued or delivered pursuant to the terms of such Prior Plan shall not become available under this Plan pursuant to this paragraph and instead shall again be available shares under the applicable Prior Plan. The number of shares of Common Stock available for awards under this Plan shall not be reduced by (i) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Substitute Awards or (ii) available shares under a stockholder approved plan of a company or other entity which was a party to a corporate transaction with the Company (as appropriately adjusted to reflect such corporate transaction) which become subject to awards granted under this Plan (subject to applicable stock exchange requirements). Shares of Common Stock to be delivered under this Plan shall be made available from authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, or authorized and issued shares of Common Stock reacquired and held as treasury shares or otherwise or a combination thereof.

II. STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

2.1 Stock Options. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant options to purchase shares of Common Stock to such eligible persons as may be selected by the Committee. Options may be granted in addition to, or in lieu of, any other compensation payable to officers, other employees, Non-Employee Directors and independent contractors, and in all cases shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem advisable:

(a) Number of Shares and Purchase Price. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to an option and the purchase price per share of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the option shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that the purchase price per share of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of a Nonqualified Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of such option.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an option that is a Substitute Award, the purchase price per share of the shares subject to such option may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant, provided, that the excess of: (a) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute Award is granted) of the shares subject to the Substitute Award, over (b) the aggregate purchase price thereof does not exceed the excess of: (x) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction giving rise to the Substitute Award, such fair market value to be determined by the Committee) of the shares of the predecessor company or other entity that were subject to the grant assumed or substituted for by the Company, over (y) the aggregate purchase price of such shares.

(b) Option Period and Exercisability. The period during which an option may be exercised shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that no option shall be exercised later than seven (7) years after its date of grant. The Committee may, in its discretion, determine that an option is to be granted as a Performance Option and may establish an applicable Performance Period and Performance Measures which shall be satisfied or met as a condition to the grant of such option or to the exercisability of all or a portion of such option. The Committee shall determine whether an option shall become exercisable in cumulative or non-cumulative installments and in part or in full at any time. An exercisable option, or portion thereof, may be exercised only with respect to whole shares of Common Stock.

(c) Method of Exercise. An option may be exercised (i) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of whole shares of Common Stock to be purchased and accompanying such notice with payment therefor in full (or arrangement made for such payment to the Company’s satisfaction) either (A) in cash, (B) by delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the aggregate purchase price payable by reason of such exercise, (C) authorizing the Company to withhold whole shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy such obligation, (D) in cash by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to whom the optionee has submitted an irrevocable notice of exercise or (E) a combination of (A), (B) and (C), in each case to the extent set forth in the Agreement relating to the option, (ii) if applicable, by surrendering to the Company any Tandem SARs which are cancelled by reason of the exercise of the option and (iii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. Any fraction of a share of Common Stock which would be required to pay such purchase price shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash by the optionee. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued and no certificate representing Common Stock shall be delivered until the full purchase price therefor and any withholding taxes thereon, as described in Section 5.5, have been paid (or arrangement made for such payment to the Company’s satisfaction).

2.2 Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant SARs to such eligible persons as may be selected by the Committee. The Agreement relating to an SAR shall specify whether the SAR is a Tandem SAR or a Free-Standing SAR.

SARs shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem advisable:

(a) Number of SARs and Base Price. The number of SARs subject to an award shall be determined by the Committee. The base price of a Tandem SAR shall be the purchase price per share of Common Stock of the related option. The base price of a Free-Standing SAR shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that such base price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of such SAR (or, if earlier, the date of grant of the option for which the SAR is exchanged or substituted).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an SAR that is a Substitute Award, the base price per share of the shares subject to such SAR may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant, provided, that the excess of: (a) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute Award is granted) of the shares subject to the Substitute Award, over (b) the aggregate base price thereof does not exceed the excess of: (x) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction giving rise to the Substitute Award, such fair market value to be determined by the Committee) of the shares of the predecessor company or other entity that were subject to the grant assumed or substituted for by the Company, over (y) the aggregate base price of such shares.

(b) Exercise Period and Exercisability. The period for the exercise of an SAR shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that no SAR shall be exercised later than seven (7) years after its date of grant; and provided further, that no Tandem SAR shall be exercised later than the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture or other termination of the related option. The Committee may, in its discretion, establish Performance Measures which shall be satisfied or met as a condition to the grant of an SAR or to the exercisability of all or a portion of an SAR. The Committee shall determine whether an SAR may be exercised in cumulative or non-cumulative installments and in part or in full at any time. An exercisable SAR, or portion thereof, may be exercised, in the case of a Tandem SAR, only with respect to whole shares of Common Stock and, in the case of a Free-Standing SAR, only with respect to a whole number of SARs. If an SAR is exercised for shares of Restricted Stock, a certificate or certificates representing such Restricted Stock shall be issued in accordance with Section 3.2(c), or such shares shall be transferred to the holder in book entry form with restrictions on the shares duly noted, and the holder of such Restricted Stock shall have such rights of a stockholder of the Company as determined pursuant to Section 3.2(d). Prior to the exercise of a stock-settled SAR, the holder of such SAR shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to such SAR.

(c) Method of Exercise. A Tandem SAR may be exercised (i) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of whole SARs which are being exercised, (ii) by surrendering to the Company any options which are cancelled by reason of the exercise of the Tandem SAR and (iii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. A Free-Standing SAR may be exercised (A) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the whole number of SARs which are being exercised and (B) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued and no certificate representing Common Stock shall be delivered until any withholding taxes thereon, as described in Section 5.5, have been paid (or arrangement made for such payment to the Company’s satisfaction).

2.3 Termination of Employment or Service. All of the terms relating to the exercise, cancellation or other disposition of an option or SAR upon a termination of employment with or service to the Company of the holder of such option or SAR, as the case may be, whether by reason of disability, retirement, death or any other reason, shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable award Agreement. 

2.4 No Repricing. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary and subject to Section 5.7, the Committee shall not (i) reduce the purchase price or base price of any previously granted option or SAR, (ii) cancel any previously granted option or SAR in exchange for another option or SAR with a lower purchase price or base price or (iii) cancel any previously granted option or SAR in exchange for cash or another award if the purchase price of such option or the base price of such SAR exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of such cancellation, in each case other than in connection with a Change in Control, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company.

2.5 Dividend Equivalents. Notwithstanding anything in an Agreement to the contrary, the holder of an option or SAR shall not be entitled to receive dividend equivalents with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such option or SAR.

V. GENERAL

5.1 Effective Date and Term of Plan. This Plan shall become effective on the date that this Plan is approved by the Board (the “Effective Date”) and shall terminate on the ten-year anniversary of the Effective Date, unless terminated earlier by the Board. Termination of this Plan shall not affect the terms or conditions of any award granted prior to termination. Awards hereunder may be made at any time prior to the termination of this Plan.

5.2 Amendments. The Board may amend this Plan as it shall deem advisable; provided, however, that no amendment to the Plan shall be effective without the approval of the Company’s stockholders if (i), subject to any requirement of stockholder approval is required by Section 2.4 or by applicable law, rule or regulation, including any rule of any stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are then traded, or (ii) the Non-Employee Director compensation limit set forth in Section 1.3; provided further, that no amendment may materially impair the rights of a holder of an outstanding award without the consent of such holder.

5.3 Agreement. Each award under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions applicable to such award. An Agreement (or an employment agreement referred to therein) may provide that, or the Committee may, in its sole discretion at any time, take action such that in the event of a termination of employment or service, in the event of a Change in Control or as otherwise determined by the Committee (i) any or all outstanding options and SARs shall become exercisable in part or in full, (ii) all or a portion of the Restriction Period

applicable to any outstanding Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Units shall lapse, (iii) all or a portion of the Performance Period applicable to any outstanding award shall lapse, and (iv) the Performance Measures (if any) applicable to any outstanding award shall be deemed to be satisfied at the target, maximum or any other interim level. No award shall be valid until an Agreement is executed by the Company and, to the extent required by the Company, the recipient of such award and, upon such execution and delivery of the Agreement to the Company within the time period specified by the Company, such award shall be effective as of the effective date set forth in the Agreement.

5.4 Non-Transferability. No award shall be transferable other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to beneficiary designation procedures approved by the Company or, to the extent expressly permitted in the Agreement relating to such award, to the holder’s family members, a trust or entity established by the holder for estate planning purposes or a charitable organization designated by the holder, in each case, without consideration. Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence or the Agreement relating to an award, each award may be exercised or settled during the holder’s lifetime only by the holder or the holder’s legal representative or similar person. Except as permitted by the second preceding sentence, no award may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of any award, such award and all rights thereunder shall immediately become null and void.

5.5 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock or the payment of any cash pursuant to an award made hereunder, payment by the holder of such award of any federal, state, local or other taxes which may be required to be withheld or paid in connection with such award. An Agreement may provide that (a) the Company shall withhold whole shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered to a holder, having an aggregate Fair Market Value determined as of the date the obligation to withhold or pay taxes arises in connection with an award (the “Tax Date”), or withhold an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to a holder, in the amount necessary to satisfy any such obligation or (b) the holder may satisfy any such obligation by any of the following means: (i) a cash payment to the Company, (ii) delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of previously owned whole shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy any such obligation, (iii) authorizing the Company to withhold whole shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, or withhold an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to a holder, in either case equal to the amount necessary to satisfy any such obligation, (iv) in the case of the exercise of an option, a cash payment by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to whom the optionee has submitted an irrevocable notice of exercise or (v) any combination of (i), (ii) and (iii), in each case to the extent set forth in the Agreement relating to the award. Shares of Common Stock to be delivered or withheld may not have an aggregate Fair Market Value in excess of the amount determined by applying the minimum statutory withholding rate (or, if permitted by the Company, such other rate as will not cause adverse accounting consequences under the accounting rules then in effect). Any fraction of a share of Common Stock which would be required to satisfy such an obligation shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash by the holder. 

5.6 Restrictions on Shares. Each award made hereunder shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Company determines that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock subject to such award upon any securities exchange or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the delivery of shares thereunder, such shares shall not be delivered unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or other action shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company may require that certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to any award made hereunder bear a legend indicating that the sale, transfer or other disposition thereof by the holder is prohibited except in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

5.7 Adjustment. In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation or any successor or replacement accounting standard) that causes the per share value of shares of Common Stock to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering or recapitalization through an extraordinary cash dividend, the number and class of securities available under this Plan, the terms of each outstanding option and SAR (including the number and class of securities subject to each outstanding option or SAR and the purchase price or base price per share), the terms of each outstanding Stock Award (including the number and class of securities subject thereto), and the terms of each outstanding Performance Unit (including the number and class of securities subject thereto, if applicable), shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, such adjustments to be made in the case of outstanding options and SARs in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, including a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or partial or complete liquidation of the Company, such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence may be made as determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of participants. In either case, the decision of the Committee regarding any such adjustment shall be final, binding and conclusive.

5.8 Change in Control.

(a) Double-Trigger Vesting. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee pursuant to Section 5.3 or provided in an Agreement or another agreement, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company and a termination of employment or service under circumstances determined by the Board or the Committee and set forth in the Agreement within 24 months following such Change in Control or within three months prior thereto in connection with such Change in Control (i) the outstanding options and SARs shall immediately become exercisable in full or in part, (ii) the Restriction Period applicable to the outstanding Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall lapse in full or in part, (iii) the Performance Period applicable to the outstanding awards shall lapse in full or in part, and (iv) the Performance Measures applicable to the outstanding awards shall be deemed to be satisfied at the target, maximum or any other interim level.

5.9 Deferrals. The Committee may determine that the delivery of shares of Common Stock or the payment of cash, or a combination thereof, upon the settlement of all or a portion of any award made hereunder shall be deferred, or the Committee may, in its sole discretion, approve deferral elections made by holders of awards. Deferrals shall be for such periods and upon such terms as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

5.10 No Right of Participation, Employment or Service. Unless otherwise set forth in an employment agreement, no person shall have any right to participate in this Plan. Neither this Plan nor any award made hereunder shall confer upon any person any right to continued employment by or service with the Company, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company or affect in any manner the right of the Company, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company to terminate the employment or service of any person at any time without liability hereunder.

5.11 Rights as Stockholder. No person shall have any right as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock or other equity security of the Company which is subject to an award hereunder unless and until such person becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares of Common Stock or equity security.

5.12 Designation of Beneficiary. To the extent permitted by the Committee, a holder of an award may file with the Company a written designation of one or more persons as such holder’s beneficiary or beneficiaries (both primary and contingent) in the event of the holder’s death or incapacity. To the extent an outstanding option or SAR granted hereunder is exercisable, such beneficiary or beneficiaries shall be entitled to exercise such option or SAR pursuant to procedures prescribed by the Company. Each beneficiary designation shall become effective only when filed in writing with the Company during the holder’s lifetime on a form prescribed by the Company. The spouse of a married holder domiciled in a community property jurisdiction shall join in any designation of a beneficiary other than such spouse. The filing with the Company of a new beneficiary designation shall cancel all previously filed beneficiary designations. If a holder fails to designate a beneficiary, or if all designated beneficiaries of a holder predecease the holder, then each outstanding award held by such holder, to the extent vested or exercisable, shall be payable to or may be exercised by such holder’s executor, administrator, legal representative or similar person.

5.13 Awards Subject to Clawback. The awards granted under this Plan and any cash payment or shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to such an award are subject to forfeiture, recovery by the Company or other action pursuant to the applicable award Agreement or any clawback or recoupment policy which the Company may adopt from time to time, including without limitation any such policy which the Company may be required to adopt under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and implementing rules and regulations thereunder, or as otherwise required by law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such notice and lapse of time shall not be required with respect to any event or circumstance which is the same or substantially the same as an event or circumstance with respect to which notice and an opportunity to cure has been given within the previous six (6) months. If the Company fails to cure the Good Reason event, then the Executive must terminate his or her employment within sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Cure Period.

(l) “Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon for the termination of the Executive’s employment and the Date of Termination.

(m) “Qualified Termination Event” shall mean (i) outside of the Change in Control Period, a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company other than for Cause, death or Disability or (ii) during the Change in Control Period, (x) a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company other than for Cause, death or Disability or (y) the Executive’s resignation from the Company for Good Reason; provided, however, that if Executive is offered another position with the Company or a Subsidiary at substantially the same or higher base salary and within 50 miles of Executive’s primary office location, and Executive declines to accept such position, the resulting termination of Executive’s employment with the Company shall not be considered a Qualified Termination Event.

(n) “Restrictive Covenants Agreement” shall mean the Inventions and Restrictive Covenant Agreement, Inventions, Arbitration and Restrictive Covenant Agreement or a similar agreement entered into between the Executive and the Company.

(o) “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture or similar entity in which the Company owns, directly or indirectly, an equity interest possessing more than 50% of the combined voting power of the total outstanding equity interests of such entity.

2. Term. Other than during the Change in Control Period, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) may determine at any time that Executive should no longer be eligible for the benefits set forth in this Agreement as a result of a material change in such Executive’s role, resulting in the Executive ceasing to serve as an executive officer of the Company, and, upon such a determination by the Committee, this Agreement shall be terminated for no consideration and such individual shall cease to be eligible to receive the benefits pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that this Agreement is terminated, Executive shall revert to participating in any other severance plan maintained by the Company for which Executive is eligible to participate.

3. Termination Benefits Generally. In the event the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive payment of any Base Salary amounts that have accrued but have not been paid as of the Termination Date and any benefits, including conversion and continuation rights, provided upon termination of employment under the Company’s employee benefit plans and policies (not including any severance, separation pay, or supplemental unemployment benefit plan) in accordance with the terms of such plans and policies (collectively the “Accrued Obligations”), within the time required by law but in no event more than sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination.

4. Termination Not in Connection with a Change in Control. In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company other than for Cause, death or Disability at any time other than during the Change in Control Period, with respect to such Executive, in addition to the Accrued Benefits, subject to his or her execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and related persons and entities (the “Release”), which shall include provisions relating to confidentiality, return of property, and non-disparagement and a reaffirmation of the Restrictive Covenants Agreement and the Release becoming irrevocable, in no event more than sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination, and subject to the Executive complying with this Agreement and the Release, the Company shall:

(a) pay the Executive an amount equal to the sum of (i) one (1) times Executive’s Base Salary (ii) 100% of the Executive’s annual target bonus in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination;

(b) accelerate the vesting of any equity awards held by the Executive that were scheduled to vest in the one-month period immediately following the Date of Termination to become fully vested, exercisable or nonforfeitable as of the Date of Termination and to be distributed in accordance with the underlying equity award agreements, provided that if the performance period applicable to any performance-based equity awards is scheduled to expire on or before the one-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, such award will remain outstanding and shall vest to the extent the underlying performance goals are achieved (for the avoidance of doubt, any unvested equity that was scheduled to vest beyond the one-month period following the Date of Termination will be forfeited); and

(c) if the Executive was participating in the Company’s group health plan immediately prior to the Date of Termination and elects COBRA health continuation, then the Company shall pay to the Executive a monthly cash payment in an amount equal to the monthly employer contribution that the Company would have made to provide health insurance to the Executive if the Executive had remained employed by the Company, based on the premiums as of the Date of Termination, until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months after the Date of Termination and (ii) the date on which the Executive obtains other employment.

4

The amounts payable under Section 4(a) shall be paid out in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice over twelve (12) months after the Date of Termination, with the first payment commencing within sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination; provided, however, that if the 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, the amounts shall be paid in the second calendar year no later than the last day of such 60-day period; provided further, that the initial payment shall include a catch-up payment to cover amounts retroactive to the day immediately following the Date of Termination.

5. Termination in Connection with a Change in Control. In the event a Qualified Termination Event occurs within the Change in Control Period, then with respect to such Executive, in addition to the Accrued Benefits, subject to his or her execution and non-revocation of Release and the Release becoming irrevocable, in no event more than sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination, and subject to the Executive complying with this Agreement and the Release, the Company shall:

(a) pay to the Executive an amount equal to the sum of (i) 100% of Base Salary plus (ii) 100% of the Executive’s annual target bonus in effect immediately prior to the Qualified Termination Event (or the Executive’s target bonus in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, if higher);

(b) accelerate the vesting of 100% of the outstanding and unvested equity awards held by the Executive to immediately become fully vested, exercisable or nonforfeitable as of the Date of Termination and such awards to be distributed in accordance with the underlying equity award agreements; provided, that the performance conditions applicable to any outstanding and unvested equity awards subject to performance conditions will be deemed satisfied at the target level specified in the terms of the applicable award agreement; and

(c) if the Executive was participating in the Company’s group health plan immediately prior to the Date of Termination and elects COBRA health continuation, then the Company shall pay to the Executive a monthly cash payment in an amount equal to the monthly employer contribution that the Company would have made to provide health insurance to the Executive if the Executive had remained employed by the Company, based on the premiums as of the Date of Termination, until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months after the Date of Termination and (ii) the date on which the Executive obtains other employment.

The amounts payable under Section 5(a) shall be paid out in a lump sum within sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination; provided, however, (i) in the event the Date of Termination occurs within three months prior to the Change in Control or (ii) the Change in Control is not a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, then the amount payable under Section 5(a) shall be paid at the time specified with respect to Section 4(a); provided, further, if the 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, the amounts shall be paid in the second calendar year no later than the last day of the 60-day period. For the avoidance of doubt, the severance pay and benefits provided in this Section 5 shall apply in lieu of, and expressly supersede, the provisions of Section 4 and Executive shall not be entitled to the severance pay and benefits under both Sections 4 and 5 hereof.

6. Additional Limitation.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the amount of any compensation, payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, calculated in a manner consistent with Section 280G of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder (the “Aggregate Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Aggregate Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the sum of all of the Aggregate Payments shall be $1.00 less than the amount at which the Executive becomes subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code; provided that such reduction shall only

5

occur if it would result in the Executive receiving a higher After Tax Amount (as defined below) than the Executive would receive if the Aggregate Payments were not subject to such reduction. In the event of such reduction, the Aggregate Payments shall be reduced in the following order, in each case, in reverse chronological order beginning with the Aggregate Payments that are to be paid the furthest in time from consummation of the transaction that is subject to Section 280G of the Code: (i) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code; (ii) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code; (iii) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (iv) non-cash forms of benefits; provided that in the case of all the foregoing Aggregate Payments all amounts or payments that are not subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c) shall be reduced before any amounts that are subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c).

(b) For purposes of this Section 6, the “After Tax Amount” means the amount of the Aggregate Payments less all federal, state, and local income, excise and employment taxes imposed on the Executive as a result of the Executive’s receipt of the Aggregate Payments. For purposes of determining the After Tax Amount, the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of individual taxation in each applicable state and locality, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes (if any) which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes.

(c) The determination as to whether a reduction in the Aggregate Payments shall be made pursuant to Section 6(a) shall be made by the Accounting Firm, which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the Date of Termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably requested by the Company or the Executive. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive.

7. Restrictive Covenants Agreement. As a condition to entering into this Agreement, each Executive shall continue to comply with the terms and conditions contained in the Restrictive Covenants Agreements or similar agreement entered into between the Executive and the Company.

8. Withholding. All payments made by the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to any tax or other amounts required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law.

9. Section 409A.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Company determines that the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes entitled to under this Agreement would be considered deferred compensation subject to the twenty (20) percent additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such payment shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be provided until the date that is the earlier of (i) six (6) months and one (1) day after the Executive’s separation from service, or (ii) the Executive’s death. If any such delayed cash payment is otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six-month period but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule.

6

(b) The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and that all amounts payable hereunder shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent possible, under either the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) or as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4). To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is not exempt from Section 409A of the Code and ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment pursuant to this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended, as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all related rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party.

(c) To the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the Executive’s termination of employment, then such payments or benefits shall be payable only upon the Executive’s “separation from service.” The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). In addition, to the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that a Change in Control does not constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, then the amounts payable under Sections 5(b) and 5(c) shall be paid at the same time as set forth in Section 4(a) and 4(b) to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(d) All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by the Executive during the time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses). Such right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(e) The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

10. Notice and Date of Termination.

(a) Notice of Termination. A termination of the Executive’s employment shall be communicated by Notice of Termination from the Company to the Executive or vice versa in accordance with this Section 10.

(b) Notice to the Company.

12. Benefits and Burdens. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Executive, their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns. In the event of the Executive’s death after a termination of employment but prior to the completion by the Company of all payments due to him or her under this Agreement, the Company shall continue such payments to the Executive’s beneficiary designated in writing to the Company prior to his or her death (or to his or her estate, if the Executive fails to make such designation).

13. Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

14. Waiver. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.

15. Non-Duplication of Benefits and Effect on Other Plans. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the benefits provided hereunder shall be in lieu of any other severance payments and/or benefits provided by the Company, including any such payments and/or benefits pursuant to an employment agreement or offer letter between the Company and the Executive, other than as provided in the Company’s 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time.

16. No Contract of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as giving any Executive any right to be retained in the employ of the Company or shall affect the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

17. Amendment. The parties may amend this Agreement by written agreement between the parties.

18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed under and be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles.

20. Protected Rights.

In the event the Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, the Executive may disclose the trade secret(s) of the Company to his attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the Executive (i) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (ii) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. In accordance with applicable law, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement or any of any policies or agreements of the Company or any affiliate applicable to the Executive (i) impedes the Executive’s right to communicate with the SEC or any other governmental agency about possible violations of federal securities or other laws or regulations or (ii) requires the Executive to provide any prior notice to the Company or its affiliates or obtain their prior approval before engaging in any such communications.

Veradigm Announces Leadership Updates

Tom Langan appointed as interim CEO

Interim CFO Lee Westerfield extends term with Company

CHICAGO – May 28, 2024 – Veradigm Inc. (OTCMKTS: MDRX, the “Company”), a leading provider of healthcare data and technology solutions, today announced that, on June 7, 2024, Tom Langan, the Company’s President and Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), will assume the role of interim Chief Executive Officer (CEO), reporting directly to the Executive Chairman and the Board. Mr. Langan has been a Company leader since 2018 and has more than 25 years of life sciences, payer and data & analytics experience. Interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Lee Westerfield, who joined Veradigm in December 2023 after more than 25 years of experience as a senior financial executive, has agreed to extend his term of service with the Company through December 31, 2024. The current interim CEO, Dr. Yin Ho, will step down following the expiration of her term of service on June 7, 2024. The Company does not plan to make any permanent executive appointments while the separately announced exploration of strategic alternatives is in process.

Executive Chairman of the Board Greg Garrison said, “As President and CCO, Tom understands the Veradigm team, industry and business objectives and will now bring his long-time leadership at Veradigm to bear as interim CEO through the Company’s next chapter. We’re also grateful for Lee’s continued efforts as interim CFO while we look to complete our financial restatements and execute against our long-term business strategy. As a seasoned CFO in sectors undergoing dynamic change, Lee has been a critical leader in helping Veradigm foster and reinforce a strong financial control environment.”

Garrison continued, “On behalf of the entire Board, I want to thank Yin for her commitment to Veradigm throughout this transition period and for her work to define a future where the Company can combine our rich history with new cutting-edge, healthcare-specific AI technology. We are grateful that Yin stepped up to become the interim CEO at a challenging time for the Company, allowing Tom to focus on the day-to-day business. In that role, she advanced Veradigm’s analytical and technology capabilities to further unlock value for our customers, partners and stockholders and help position the Company as a leader in healthcare data intelligence. We wish Yin the best in her next endeavors.”

“I want to offer my sincere thanks to the Veradigm employees, including the team that joined us from ScienceIO,” said Dr. Yin Ho, interim CEO. “During my tenure, we made a bold investment in healthcare-specific AI by acquiring ScienceIO, becoming the first healthcare organization to bring AI in-house in this manner. We are uniquely positioned in the industry to responsibly develop these new capabilities and support the ecosystem of providers, payers and life sciences. Our experience with electronic health records and deep knowledge of clinical workflow set us up to leverage in-house generative AI models to enhance both the clinical experience and the quality of data capture.”

Dr. Ho continued, “As I conclude my service at Veradigm, I am proud of the direction we’ve set. I am confident that Veradigm is well positioned to assume a leadership role in responsibly developing healthcare intelligence products using generative AI models. Additionally, I am excited about the strength of the Veradigm network. I have the utmost confidence in Tom’s leadership to guide the Company in its next chapter.”

Actual results could differ significantly from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, among others: whether the objectives of the review of strategic alternatives will be achieved; the terms, structure, benefits and costs of any strategic transaction that may result from the review of strategic alternatives; the timing of any such strategic transaction and whether any such strategic transaction will be consummated at all; the risk that the review of strategic alternatives and its announcement could have an adverse effect on (a) the ability of the Company to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and stockholders and (b) the Company’s operating results and business generally; the risk that the review of strategic alternatives could divert the attention and time of the Company’s management; the risk of any unexpected costs or expenses resulting from the review; the risk of any litigation relating to the review of strategic alternatives or any strategic transaction that may result therefrom; an increased risk of shareholder activism in connection with the review of strategic alternatives or any transaction that may result therefrom; further material delay in the Company’s financial reporting or ability to hold an annual meeting of stockholders; an inability to timely prepare restated financial statements; unanticipated factors or factors that the Company currently believes will not cause delay; the impacts of the previously disclosed, ongoing independent investigation by the Audit Committee of the Board that relates to the Company’s financial reporting, internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls (the “Audit Committee Investigation”), including on the Company’s remediation efforts and preparation of financial statements or other factors that could cause additional delay or adjustments; the possibility that the ongoing review may identify additional errors and material weaknesses or other deficiencies in the Company’s accounting practices; the likelihood that the control deficiencies identified or that may be identified in the future will result in additional material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting; risks relating to the Company’s voluntary disclosure to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of information concerning the Audit Committee Investigation; risks relating to the putative securities class action lawsuit filed against the Company and any other future litigation or investigation relating to the Audit Committee
