ARTICLE 4   Incentive Awards

4.1

Objective Performance Goals. The Committee shall establish Performance Objectives for a Performance Period not later than 90 days after the beginning of the Performance Period or by some other date required or permitted under Section 162(m). The Performance Objectives need not be the same for different Performance Periods and for any Performance Period may be stated separately for one or more of the Participants, collectively for the entire group of Participants, or in any combination of the two.

4.2

Performance Evaluation. Within a reasonable time after the close of a Performance Period, the Committee shall determine whether the Performance Objectives established for that Performance Period have been met. If the Performance Objectives established by the Committee have been met, the Committee shall so certify in writing to the extent required by Code Section 162(m).

4.3

Award. If the Committee has made the written certification under Section 4.2 for a Performance Period, each Participant to whom the certification applies shall be eligible for an Award for that Performance Period. The maximum Award for each such Participant shall consist of (a) cash in the amount of $3 million and (b) in lieu of additional cash, 225,000 shares of Common Stock to be paid under Article 9 of the Cigna LTIP. For any Performance Period, however, the Committee shall have the sole and absolute discretion to reduce the amount of, or eliminate entirely, the Award to one or more of the Participants. Payment of all or part of an Award in Common Stock shall be made under and subject to the terms and conditions of the Cigna LTIP and the applicable grant. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, or other subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock that a Participant may receive as an Award under the Plan will be adjusted accordingly. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock are changed or converted into, exchanged or exchangeable for, a different number or kind of shares or other securities of Cigna or of another corporation, by reason of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, reclassification or combination, the Committee shall make an appropriate adjustment in the number and/or kind of shares that may be awarded under this Plan.

4.4

Payment of the Award.

(a)

Payment of an Award in the form of cash or Common Stock shall be made on or before March 15, but no earlier than January 1, of the calendar year following the close of the Performance Period. Cigna Corporation shall issue and deposit any Award in the form of Common Stock into the stock account maintained for the Participant under the Cigna LTIP.

(b)

The Participant may, in accordance with Section 409A, voluntarily defer receipt of an Award in the form of cash or Common Stock under the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan.

(c)

The Employer shall have the right to deduct from any cash Award any applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes and any other amounts that the Employer is required to deduct. Deductions from an Award in the form of Common Stock shall be governed by Section 15.6 of the Cigna LTIP and the terms of the Award.

4.5

Eligibility for Payments.

(a)

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.5, a Participant shall be eligible to receive an Award for a Performance Period only if the Participant is employed by the Company continuously from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date of payment of the Award.

(b)

Under paragraph 4.5(a), a leave of absence that lasts less than three months and that is approved in accordance with applicable Company policies is not a break in continuous employment. In the case of a leave of absence of three months or longer, the Committee shall determine whether the leave of absence constitutes a break in continuous employment.

(c)

If a Participant’s Termination of Employment occurs after the end of a Performance Period but before the Committee pays an Award under Section 4.3, and the Termination of Employment is on account of Retirement, death or Disability, the Committee shall determine whether to make an Award to or on behalf of the Participant under Section 4.3.

ARTICLE 5   Administration

5.1

General Administration. The Plan is to be administered by the Committee, subject to such requirements for review and approval by the Board as the Board may establish. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee is authorized and empowered in its sole discretion to select Participants and to make Awards in such amounts and upon such terms and conditions as it shall determine.

Decisions Binding. All decisions of the Committee concerning this Plan shall be binding on Cigna and its Subsidiaries and their respective boards of directors, and on all Participants and other persons claiming rights under the Plan.

5.5

Section 162(m); Shareholder Approval. Awards under this Plan are intended to satisfy the applicable requirements for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m). It is intended that the Plan be administered, interpreted and construed so that Award payments remain tax deductible to the Company. Any Awards under this Plan shall be contingent upon shareholder approval of the Plan in accordance with Section 162(m) and applicable Treasury regulations.

ARTICLE 6   Amendments; Termination

The Plan may be amended or terminated by the Board or Committee. All amendments to this Plan, including an amendment to terminate the Plan, shall be in writing. An amendment shall not be effective without the prior approval of the shareholders of Cigna Corporation if such approval is necessary to continue to qualify Awards as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m), or otherwise under Internal Revenue Service or SEC regulations, the rules of the New York Stock Exchange or any other applicable law or regulations. Unless otherwise expressly provided by the Board or Committee, no amendment to this Plan shall apply to Awards made before the effective date of the amendment. A Participant’s rights with respect to any Awards made to him may not be abridged by any amendment, modification or termination of the Plan without his individual consent.

ARTICLE 7   Other Provisions

7.1

Duration of the Plan. The Plan shall apply to Awards for Performance Periods beginning after December 31, 2011 and shall remain in effect until all Awards made under this Plan have been paid or forfeited under the terms of this Plan, and all Performance Periods related to Awards made under the Plan have expired.

7.2

Awards Not Assignable. No Award, or any right thereto, shall be assignable or transferable by a Participant except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any other attempted assignment or alienation shall be void and of no force or effect.

7.3

Participant’s Rights. The right of any Participant to receive any Award payments under the provisions of the Plan shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Employer. The Plan shall not create, nor be construed in any manner as having created, any right by a Participant to any Award for a Performance Period because of a Participant’s participation in the Plan for any prior Performance Period, or because the Committee has made a written certification under Section 4.2 of the Plan for the Performance Period.

7.4

Termination of Employment. Cigna and each Subsidiary retain the right to terminate the employment of any employee at any time for any reason or no reason, and an Award is not, and shall not be construed in any manner to be, a waiver of such right.

7.5

Successors. Any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of Cigna’s business or assets, shall assume Cigna’s liabilities under this Plan and perform any duties and responsibilities in the same manner and to the same extent that Cigna would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

7.6

References. All statutory and regulatory references in this Plan include successor provisions.

7.7

Controlling Law. This Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to Pennsylvania conflict of law rules, to the extent not preempted by federal law, which shall otherwise control.
