EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between ECLIPSYS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and BRIAN W. COPPLE, an individual (the “Executive”), effective June 23, 2005 (the “Effective Date”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ the Executive, and the Executive desires to be employed by the Company, on the terms set forth herein;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties to this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1 — Employment.

(a) The Company agrees to employ the Executive as its General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer, and the Executive shall have the customary powers, responsibilities and authorities of a General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer and such other powers, responsibilities and authorities as may be delegated to Executive from time to time. In this capacity, the Executive shall report to, and be subject to review and control by, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, provided that at the Company’s discretion the Executive shall report to, and be subject to review and control by, the Chief Administrative Officer of the Company while the individual serving in that capacity as of the date of this Agreement continues in that capacity. The Executive agrees to devote his reasonable best efforts to the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Executive from engaging in charitable and community affairs, from managing any passive investment (i.e., an investment with respect to which the Executive is in no way involved with the management or operation of the entity in which the Executive has invested) made by him in publicly traded equity securities or other property (provided that no such investment may exceed five percent (5%) of the equity of any entity, without the prior approval of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”)) or from serving, as a member of boards of directors or as a trustee of any other corporation, association or entity, to the extent that any of the above activities do not interfere with his ability to discharge his duties hereunder and the subject entity does not directly compete with the Company.

(c) The Executive currently resides in California, and shall not be required to relocate his residence outside of Orange County, California. The Executive’s primary office location will be at the Company’s offices in Orange County, California. The Executive will, however, be expected to spend a sufficient amount of time necessary to execute fully the requirements of his role in the Company’s headquarters, currently located in Boca Raton, Florida.

Section 2 - Term of Employment. The Executive’s term of employment (“Term of Employment”) commenced on May 30, 2005 (the “Commencement Date”) and, subject to the terms hereof, shall terminate on the date that either party terminates the Executive’s employment in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement. Commencing with the Effective Date, Employee’s employment is and shall be governed by this Agreement.

Section 3 - Compensation.

(a) Salary. During the period from the Commencement Date through December 31, 2005 (the “Initial Period”), the Company shall pay the Executive at the annualized rate of $380,000.00 (“Base Salary”), in bi-weekly payments of $14,615.38. Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the ordinary payroll practices of the Company and shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local withholding and reporting requirements. The Executive’s Base Salary shall not be decreased during the Initial Period. During the Term of Employment, the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board shall review, and may, subject to the immediately preceding sentence and subject to Executive’s right to terminate employment for Good Reason pursuant to Section 6(a) as a result of any reduction in Base Salary, adjust the Executive’s Base Salary annually, in accordance with the Company’s customary procedures and practices for reviewing compensation of senior executives. In the event the Base Salary is so adjusted, the adjusted amount shall become the Base Salary for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Bonus Plan. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s executive bonus plan, subject to all the terms and conditions of such plan, as such plan may be modified from time to time, with the actual bonus earned being based on achieving such performance targets and management objectives as may be established by the Chief Executive Officer, the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board each year as contemplated by the bonus plan; provided, however, that the Executive’s annual target bonus (the “Target Bonus”) shall be at least $117,000.00 for calendar 2005. All bonus payments shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local withholding and reporting requirements.

Section 4 - Employee Benefits.

(a) Employee Retirement Benefit Programs, Welfare Benefit Programs, Plans and Practices. The Company shall provide the Executive with coverage during the Term of Employment under any retirement benefit programs, welfare benefit programs, and other compensatory and benefit programs, plans and practices, that the Company makes available to its senior executives, including, but not limited to, its life and short- and long-term disability insurance, hospitalization and major medical insurance, the Company’s 401(k) Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, dental insurance, directors and officers liability insurance, and any other nonqualified compensation program (including deferred compensation or supplemental retirement programs) as in effect from time to time.

(b) Vacation. The Executive shall be entitled to five weeks of paid vacation each calendar year, which shall be taken at such times as are consistent with the Executive’s responsibilities hereunder; provided, however, subject to applicable law, that the Executive shall not be entitled to carry over unused vacation from year to year in an amount exceeding that which the Executive would be entitled to carry over in accordance with the Company’s standard vacation policy as applied to employees of the Executive’s longevity with the Company.

(c) Stock Options and Restricted Stock Grants. The Company has granted to the Executive (1) a non-qualified stock option to purchase 90,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the common stock on Nasdaq on the date of grant and (2) a restricted stock grant of 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, for which the Executive paid an initial price of $.01 per share, both such grants to vest over a period of five years from the Commencement Date (the “Initial Grants”).

(d) Other Benefits. The Executive will be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable expenses in maintaining his professional status, including annual bar and bar association dues, professional publications and continuing legal education expenses. The Executive will also be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred by him for an annual physical examination, to the extent such an examination is not otherwise covered or provided by the health insurance or health benefits provided by the Company to the Executive pursuant to Section 4(a) above.

Section 5 - Expenses. Subject to prevailing Company policy or such guidelines as may be established by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board from time to time, the Company shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in carrying out his duties, including without limitation reasonable travel and housing expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with commuting between his home in California and the Company’s headquarters in Florida or other Company facilities other than any Company facility in Orange County, California.

Section 6 - Termination of Employment.

(a) Termination Without Cause or Termination for Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause (as defined in Section 6(c) hereof), the Executive’s Disability (as defined in Section 6(e) hereof), or the Executive’s death, or if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason (as defined in Section 6(a)(2) hereof), then the Company shall pay the Executive (x) the Accrued Amounts (as defined below) and (y) subject to the following sentence, the Severance Package. The payment of the Severance Package to the Executive under this Section 6(a) shall (i) be contingent upon the execution by the Executive of a general release in favor of the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, provided that if changes or expansions of relevant laws and regulations would result in Exhibit B in the form thereof as of the date of this Agreement failing to achieve the intent thereof as reflected by the form thereof as of the date of this Agreement (the “Initial Intent”), and if it is possible to modify Exhibit B so as to effect the Initial Intent notwithstanding such changes or expansions of relevant laws or regulations, then Exhibit B will be modified to the extent necessary to preserve the Initial Intent (the “Release”) and (ii) constitute the sole remedy of the Executive in the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment in the circumstances set forth in this Section 6(a). Except as expressly provided herein or in another agreement between the Company and the Executive, the Severance Package shall not be subject to any duty to mitigate damages by the Executive, nor any set off or reduction due to the Executive’s post-termination employment, provided such post-termination employment does not contravene any agreement between the Company and the Executive. The Accrued Amounts shall be payable in a lump sum within ten (10) days of termination of employment.

(1) For purposes of this Agreement, the “Accrued Amounts” shall mean the Executive’s Base Salary, any declared but unpaid bonus, any accrued but unused vacation and any other earned but unpaid amounts payable to him hereunder, in each case as accrued through the last day of his actual employment by the Company.

(2) For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment by the Executive for “Good Reason” shall be a termination by the Executive following the occurrence of any of the following events unless the Company has cured as provided below:

(A) Removal from the position of General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer of the Company, except for Cause or following the Executive’s death or Disability;

(B) Any material diminution in the Executive’s duties, responsibilities, authority, reporting or participation in management, except for Cause or following the Executive’s death or Disability;

(C) A reduction in the Base Salary then in effect or a material reduction in the other benefits (other than the Target Bonus) provided to the Executive by the Company;

(D) Any material breach by the Company of this Agreement or any other legal obligation owed by the Company to the Executive;

(E) Failure of any successor of the Company to assume this Agreement as required by Section 11; or

(F) A required relocation of the Executive’s primary residence or a required relocation outside of Orange County, California of his primary office location.

Executive must notify the Company in writing specifically identifying any event constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days after the Executive becomes aware of such event or such event shall not constitute Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement; provided that the Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice to cure the Good Reason event. A termination by the Executive following cure shall not be a termination for Good Reason. A failure of the Executive to notify the Company after the first occurrence of an event constituting Good Reason shall not preclude any subsequent occurrences of such event (or similar event) from constituting Good Reason.

(3) For purposes of this Agreement, “Severance Package” shall mean:

(A) Base Salary continuation for twelve (12) months following the date of termination at the Executive’s annual Base Salary rate in effect on the date of termination, subject to all applicable federal, state and local withholding and reporting requirements. These salary continuation payments shall be paid in accordance with usual Company payroll practices.

(B) A bonus equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Executive’s Target Bonus in effect on the date of termination (but not less than $200,000), payable in equal installments over the twelve (12) month period described in Section 6(a)(3)(A) above, subject to the same withholding and reporting requirements. In addition, to the extent not included in the Accrued Amounts, the Executive shall receive a pro rata bonus for the bonus period during which the date of termination occurs calculated at one hundred percent (100%) of the Target Bonus then in effect, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that the Executive was employed during such bonus term and the denominator of which is 365. Such prorated bonus shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s customary practices for payment of executive bonuses but with no additional performance requirements or contingencies. For purposes of the calculations set forth in this Section 6(a)(3)(B), the Executive’s Target Bonus for calendar 2005 shall be deemed to be $200,000.

(C) For the avoidance of confusion, the parties acknowledge that in the event the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason as a result of a decrease in his Base Salary as contemplated in clause (C) of Section 6(a)(2), then the Base Salary used for purposes of the calculation of the Severance Package shall be the Base Salary in effect immediately prior to such reduction.

(D) The Executive shall be entitled to twelve (12) months of additional vesting of all stock, stock options and other equity-based awards granted to him, other than the Initial Grants and other than any grants that include provisions similar in effect to those provisions included in Section 2 of the Stock Option Agreement entered into between the Executive and the Company on May 30, 2005 (the “Stock Option Agreement”) and Section 3 of the Restricted Stock Agreement entered into between the Executive and the Company on May 30, 2005 (the “Restricted Stock Agreement”). For the avoidance of confusion, it is agreed that the Initial Grants already include provisions designed to effectuate this benefit, which are identified in the prior sentence, and that the Company shall include similar provisions in future grants. In the case of the Initial Grants and any such future grants that include similar provisions, this paragraph (D) is not intended to provide additional benefits beyond those included in such provisions.

(E) Continuation of benefits under any life, group health, and dental insurance benefits substantially similar to those which the Executive (and, if applicable, his family) was receiving immediately prior to termination of employment until the earlier of:

(i) the end of the twelve (12) month period following the date of termination, or

(ii) the date on which the Executive becomes eligible to receive substantially similar benefits under any plan or program of any other employer.

The continuing coverage provided under this Section 6(a)(3)(E) is subject to the availability of such continuation under the terms of the applicable plan documents and all provisions of applicable law, including the requirements of the federal “COBRA” law, 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq. with respect to group health and dental insurance. If the Executive is not eligible for such continued coverage under one of the Company-provided benefit plans noted in this paragraph (E) that he was participating in during his employment, the Company shall pay the Executive the cash equivalent of the cost of replacement insurance for the duration of the applicable period, which payments shall be made pro-rata in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices.

(4) To the extent that this Employment Agreement is treated as a nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”), neither the Company nor the Executive may accelerate the timing of the payments under this Section 6(a) (for example, no part of the Severance Package may be paid in a lump sum at the time of termination) unless such acceleration does not trigger the application of interest and penalty taxes under Section 409A. In addition, to the extent that this Employment Agreement is treated as a nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement within the meaning of Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations to be issued under Section 409A require a delay in the commencement of any payments under the Severance Package due to the Executive’s status as a “specified employee”, the Severance Package payments shall be delayed to the minimum extent and in the minimum amount necessary so as to comply with the Code and any regulations thereunder, and otherwise paid on the schedule set forth in this Section 6(a).

(b) Voluntary Termination by Executive Without Good Reason. If the Executive terminates his employment with the Company without Good Reason, then the Company shall pay the Executive the Accrued Amounts in a lump sum within ten (10) days of termination of employment.

(c) Termination for Cause. If the Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, the Company shall pay the Executive the Accrued Amounts in a lump sum within ten (10) days of termination of employment. As used herein, the term “Cause” shall be limited to:

(1) Executive’s conviction of or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or any other jurisdiction in which the Company conducts business;

(2) Executive’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of his duties that causes material harm to the Company;

(3) Executive’s willful and continued failure to follow the reasonable and lawful instructions of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Board or, if applicable, Chief Administrative Officer;

(4) Executive’s willful and continued neglect of duties (other than any such neglect resulting from incapacity of the Executive due to physical or mental illness); or

(5) a material breach of this Agreement by the Executive;

provided, however, that Cause shall arise under items (2), (3), (4) or (5) only following thirty (30) days written notice thereof from the Company which specifically identifies such misconduct, failure, neglect or breach and only if the Executive continues to engage in or fails to cure such misconduct, failure, neglect or breach during such notice period. During any such notice period, the Executive shall have the right to be heard before the full Board and Cause shall not be deemed to exist without a finding by the Board that Cause exists and has not been cured during the thirty (30) day cure period. A termination by the Company after cure shall not be a termination for Cause. A failure of the Company to notify the Executive after the first occurrence of an event constituting Cause shall not preclude any subsequent occurrences of such event (or similar event) from constituting Cause.

(d) Certain Terminations Following a Change in Control. In the event the Executive’s employment with the Company or its successor terminates under any of the circumstances described in Section 6(a) above within two (2) years after a Change in Control of the Company (as defined below) that occurs during the Term of Employment, then in addition to the Accrued Amounts and the Severance Package, the Executive shall be entitled to immediate vesting of all stock options, restricted stock awards and other equity-based awards granted to him and not otherwise vested. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The provision of the accelerated vesting described in this Section 6(d) (i) shall be contingent upon the execution by the Executive of the Release or a release in another form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Executive and (ii) together with payment of the Accrued Amounts and the Severance Package, shall constitute the sole remedy of the Executive in the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment in the circumstances set forth in this Section 6(d). Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if (q) a Change in Control occurs, (r) the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason within 180 days prior to the date on which the Change in Control occurs, and (s) it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that such termination of employment or events constituting Good Reason (x) was at the request of a third party who has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control or (y) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control, then for all purposes of this Agreement such Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred during the Term of Employment and the termination shall be deemed to have occurred after the Change in Control, so that the Executive is entitled to the vesting provided by this section. It is recognized that options not vested at the time of or as a result of termination of employment are cancelled, and shares of restricted stock not vested at the time of or as a result of termination of employment may be repurchased by the Company within 90 days after termination of employment, and further that following such cancellation or repurchase, the Participant may become entitled to vesting of those cancelled stock options or repurchased shares of restricted stock in connection with a subsequent Change in Control pursuant to this section. In that case, the Company or its successor shall deliver to the Participant the consideration the Participant would have received in the Change in Control for (i) the shares of restricted stock that were repurchased as if those shares had been owned by and fully vested in the Participant at the time of the Change in Control, less an amount equal to the product of $.01 per share and the number of such shares to represent the par value thereof; and (ii) the stock options that were cancelled as though such options had been vested at the time of the Change in Control, to the extent that unexercised vested stock options were cashed out in the Change in Control, and otherwise for a number of shares of the Company’s common stock having a value at the time of the Change in Control equal to the aggregate amount by which those stock options were in-the-money at the time of the Change in Control, using for purposes of this calculation the value of a share of the Company’s common stock in the Change in Control transaction.

(e) Disability. In the event that the Executive suffers a Disability, the Company may, in its discretion, terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall be defined to occur at such time as the Executive becomes eligible to receive benefits under the terms of the Company’s then applicable long-term disability policy, or, in the absence of such policy, shall be defined as a physical or mental disability that prevents the Executive from performing his duties under this Agreement for ninety (90) consecutive days or more, or for an aggregate of one hundred twenty (120) days in any period of twelve (12) months. The Company may only terminate the Executive on account of Disability after giving due consideration to whether reasonable accommodations can be made under which the Executive is able to fulfill his duties under this Agreement. The commencement date and expected duration of any physical or mental condition that prevents the Executive from performing his duties hereunder shall be determined by a medical doctor mutually acceptable to the Executive and the Company. In the event the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company pursuant to this Section 6(e), then the Company shall pay the Executive the Accrued Amounts in a lump sum within ten (10) days of termination of employment. In addition, to the extent not included in the Accrued Amounts, the Executive shall receive a pro rata bonus for the bonus period during which the date of termination pursuant to this Section 6(e) occurs calculated at one hundred percent (100%) of the Target Bonus then in effect, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that the Executive was employed during such bonus term and the denominator of which is 365. Such prorated bonus shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s customary practices for payment of executive bonuses but with no additional performance requirements or contingencies, provided, however, that to the extent that this Employment Agreement is treated as a nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement under Section 409A, the payment of such bonus may not be accelerated by either the Company or the Executive unless such acceleration does not trigger the application of interest and penalty taxes under Section 409A.

(f) Death. In the event of the Executive’s death during the Term of Employment, all obligations of the Company to make any further payments, including the obligation to pay the Accrued Amounts, shall be paid to the Executive’s estate, and in any event all Accrued Amounts shall be paid in a lump sum within ten (10) days of the Executive’s death. In addition, to the extent not included in the Accrued Amounts, the Executive’s estate shall receive a payment or payments reflecting a pro rata bonus for the Executive for the bonus period during which the date of termination pursuant to this Section 6(f) occurs calculated at one hundred percent (100%) of the Target Bonus then in effect, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that the Executive was employed during such bonus term and the denominator of which is 365. Such prorated bonus shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s customary practices for payment of executive bonuses but with no additional performance requirements or contingencies, provided, however, that to the extent that this Employment Agreement is treated as a nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement within the meaning of Section 409A, the payment of such bonus may not be accelerated by either the Company or the Executive unless such acceleration does not trigger the application of interest and penalty taxes under Section 409A.

(g) Payments as Compensable Compensation. Any participation by the Executive in, and any terminating distributions and vested rights under, Company-sponsored retirement or deferred compensation plans, regardless of whether such plans are qualified or nonqualified for tax purposes, shall be governed by the terms of those respective plans.

(h) Executive’s Duty to Provide Materials. Upon the termination of the Term of Employment for any reason, the Executive or his estate shall surrender to the Company all correspondence, letters, files, contracts, mailing lists, customer lists, advertising material, ledgers, supplies, equipment, checks, and all other materials and records of any kind that are the property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, that may be in the Executive’s possession or under his control, including all copies of any of the foregoing. However, Executive may retain and use in his subsequent endeavors his legal files, including copies of contracts, policies, summaries, analyses, and other legal documents prepared during the Term of Employment, provided that in doing so Executive does not breach any duties of confidentiality to the Company and provided further that this does not constitute a waiver by the Company of any conflict of interest or attorney-client privilege to the extent it may apply to any of such materials.

(i) Practice of Law. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, following termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall not impose (i) restrictions or limitations of any kind (other than such restrictions or limitations as may be imposed by the professional ethical rules governing Executive’s conduct as an attorney) upon the right of Executive to practice law, whether as an independent or law-firm attorney or as an employee of any organization, at any time, in any jurisdiction, in any matter, for any client, or (ii) penalties of any kind associated with any such practice of law by Executive.

(j) Loss of Severance.

(1) Subject to paragraph 6(i) above, which limits the scope of the restriction in this paragraph 6(j), but notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if the Executive has a Specified Relationship with a Designated Company at any time during the one-year period following the termination or cessation of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, then the Company shall no longer have any obligation to pay or provide the Executive with any of the Severance Package and the Executive shall be obligated to pay to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the aggregate cost to the Company of the Severance Package previously provided to the Executive by the Company, within ten (10) days of written notice by the Company. Any notice provided by the Company to the Executive pursuant to this Section 6(j)(1) shall specify the amount owed by the Executive.

(2) For these purposes:

(A) “Specified Relationship” with a Designated Company means acting as an owner, partner, officer, director, or employee of, or consultant or lender to, or investor in, that Designated Company, except that ownership of not more than 1% of the outstanding stock of a Designated Company, in and of itself, will not be a Specified Relationship.

(B) “Designated Company” means at any time of determination any of the entities listed on the Current Version of Schedule C, provided that at no time may there be more than ten Designated Companies, and if any version of Schedule C lists more than ten companies, then only the first ten listed, reading left to right, top to bottom, will be Designated Companies pursuant to that schedule. The “Current Version” of Schedule C is the version attached to this Agreement at the date of its execution unless and until Schedule C is modified as set forth in paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(i) or 6(j)(2)(B)(ii) below.

(i) At any time and from time to time from the date hereof until the date seven days following the termination or cessation of Executive’s employment for any reason, but not more than once in any period of 180 days, the Company may, in its discretion, by written notice to Executive, modify the Current Version to include any company or companies that are at that time engaged in any activity that is competitive with the Company’s business, subject to the overall limit of ten, and that modified version of the schedule will then be the Current Version unless and until further modified pursuant to this paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(i) or paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(ii).

(ii) Not more than once in any period of 180 days, the Executive may by written demand require the Company to provide an updated Current Version. In response, within five days of receipt of Executive’s demand, the Company must deliver to the Executive an updated Current Version or ratify in writing the then-existing Current Version. Any such updated Current Version may include, in the Company’s discretion, any company or companies that are at that time engaged in any activity that is competitive with the Company’s business, subject to the overall limit of ten. The Company may elect to deliver an updated Current Version in response to the Executive’s demand even if the Company has modified the schedule in its own discretion within the preceding 180 days, but in any case the Current Version provided by the Company in response to Executive’s demand (whether updated or ratified) will trigger a new 180-day waiting period before the Company may again modify the schedule in its discretion pursuant to paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(i). Any Current Version resulting from the process described in this paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(ii) will be the Current Version unless and until further modified pursuant to this paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(ii) or paragraph 6(j)(2)(B)(i).

(k) Cell Phone Number. In connection with any termination of employment for any reason, the Company will promptly take all steps necessary to transfer back to the Executive his cell phone number, which is being transferred by the Executive to the Company for administrative convenience during his period of employment.

Section 7 – Gross-up Payments.

(a) If the Executive becomes obligated to pay any excise tax on excess parachute payments under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or any similar or successor law or regulation, whether as a result of benefits provided to the Executive under this Agreement or another agreement by or plan of the Company , the Company shall pay an additional amount (the “Gross-Up Payment”) to the Executive at the time specified in the following paragraph. The Gross-Up Payment shall be equal to the amount necessary so that the net amount retained by the Executive, after subtracting the parachute excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any successor statute then in effect (the “Excise Tax”), and after also subtracting all federal, state or local income tax, FICA tax and Excise Tax on the Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the net amount the Executive would have retained if no Excise Tax had been imposed and no Gross-Up Payment had been paid. The amount of the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined in good faith by independent accountants or tax counsel selected by the Company and acceptable to the Executive, who shall apply the following assumptions: (i) the Executive shall be treated as paying federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is made, and (ii) the Executive shall be treated as paying state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate(s) in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is made in the locality of the Executive’s residence as of the effective date of the Executive’s termination or resignation, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that could be obtained from deducting those state and local taxes.

(b) The Gross-Up Payment shall be made within thirty days after the event that triggered the Company’s obligation to provide the benefits upon which taxes as described in this Section 7 are payable (the “Triggering Event”), provided that if the Gross-Up Payment cannot be determined within that time, the Company shall pay the Executive within that time an estimate, determined in good faith by the Company, of the minimum amount of the Gross-Up Payment and shall pay the remainder (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) as soon as the amount can be determined but in no event later than the 60th day after the Triggering Event. If the estimated payment is more than the amount later determined to have been due, the excess (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) shall be repaid by the Executive within five business days after written demand.

(c) If the actual Excise Tax imposed is less than the amount that was taken into account in determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive shall repay at the time that the amount of the reduced Excise Tax is finally determined the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to that reduction (plus the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to the Excise Tax, FICA tax and federal, state and local income tax imposed on the portion of the Gross-Up Payment being repaid by the Executive, to the extent the repayment results in a reduction in or refund of the Excise Tax, FICA tax or federal, state or local income tax), plus interest on the amount of the repayment at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code. If the actual Excise Tax imposed is more than the amount that was taken into account in determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Company shall make an additional gross-up payment in respect of such excess (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) at the time that the amount of the excess is finally determined.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties agree that if the payments under this Section 7 are treated as nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, the parties will negotiate this section in good faith to avoid adverse tax consequences to the Executive.

Section 8 — Other Agreements.

(a) Non-Solicitation; Non-Disclosure, etc. In consideration for the provisions of this Agreement, among other things, the Executive has separately executed a Confidentiality, Non-Disclosure and Developments Agreements (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

(b) No Violation of Other Agreements. The Executive hereby represents that he is not bound by the terms of any agreement with any previous employer or other party to refrain from using or disclosing any trade secret or confidential or proprietary information in the course of his employment with the Company or to refrain from competing, directly or indirectly, with the business of such previous employer or any other party, except for any such agreement that could not reasonably be expected to compromise the Executive’s ability to perform his duties as General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer of the Company. The Executive further represents that, to his knowledge and belief, he has not breached any agreement not to compete or any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by him in confidence or in trust prior to his employment with the Company, and the Executive acknowledges the Company’s desire and direction that he not breach any such agreement in the performance of his services hereunder.

Intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties have executed this Agreement on the date set forth above.

ECLIPSYS CORPORATION

Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement

1. Grant of Option.

This agreement evidences the grant by Eclipsys Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on May 30, 2005 (the “Grant Date”) to Brian W. Copple (the “Participant”), of an option to purchase, in whole or in part, on the terms provided herein, a total of 90,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $.01 par value per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) at $13.60 per Share. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Agreement, this option shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on May 30, 2015 (the “Final Exercise Date”).

It is intended that the option evidenced by this agreement shall not be an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”). Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term “Participant”, as used in this option, shall be deemed to include any person who acquires the right to exercise this option validly under its terms.

This option is granted pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). Determinations made and definitions used in connection with this option by reference to the provisions of the Plan shall be governed by the Plan as it exists on this date.

2. Vesting Schedule.

This option will become exercisable (“vest”) as to 20% of the original number of Shares on May 30, 2006 and as to an additional 1.667% of the original number of Shares at the end of each successive one-month period following May 30, 2006 until the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date. For purposes of this definition, a “one-month period” shall be deemed to be the monthly period ending on the 30th day (or the last day of February) of each consecutive calendar month.

The right of exercise shall be cumulative so that to the extent the option is not exercised in any period to the maximum extent permissible it shall continue to be exercisable, in whole or in part, with respect to all Shares for which it is vested until the earlier of the Final Exercise Date or the termination of this option under Section 3 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in the event the employment of the Participant is terminated under circumstances described in Section 6(a) of the Employment Agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Participant (the “Employment Agreement”), the vested portion of this option shall be determined as if such employment termination occurred one year later and (ii) in the event the employment of the Participant is terminated under circumstances described in Section 6(d) of the Employment Agreement, this option shall become immediately exercisable in full.

3. Exercise of Option.

(a) Form of Exercise. Each election to exercise this option shall be in writing, signed by the Participant in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, and received by the Company at its principal office, accompanied by this agreement, and payment in full. Shares of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of the option evidenced by this Agreement shall be paid for as follows:

(1) in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company;

(2) by (i) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding or (ii) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding;

(3) when the Common Stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), by delivery of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at their fair market value (“Fair Market Value”) as determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), provided (i) such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law, (ii) such Common Stock, if acquired directly from the Company, was owned by the Participant for such minimum period of time, if any, as may be established by the Board in its discretion and (iii) such Common Stock is not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements;

(4) to the extent permitted by applicable law and by the Board, by (i) delivery of a promissory note of the Participant to the Company on terms determined by the Board, or (ii) payment of such other lawful consideration as the Board may determine; or

(5) by any combination of the above permitted forms of payment.

The Participant may purchase less than the number of shares covered hereby, provided that no partial exercise of this option may be for any fractional share.

(b) Continuous Relationship with the Company Required. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, this option may not be exercised unless the Participant, at the time he or she exercises this option, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee, officer or director of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company or any other entity the employees, officers, directors, consultants, or advisors of which are eligible to receive option grants under the Plan (an “Eligible Participant”).

(c) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason, then, except as provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) below, the right to exercise this option shall terminate three months after such cessation (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date), provided that this option shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise this option on the date of such cessation, including any additional vesting as a result of the termination of the Participant’s employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant, prior to the Final Exercise Date, violates the non-competition or confidentiality provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Participant and the Company, the right to exercise this option shall terminate immediately upon written notice to the Participant from the Company describing such violation; provided however, that the Participant’s right to exercise this option shall not terminate pursuant to this sentence if the Participant has cured any such violation within 30 days after such written notice; provided further however, that the Participant shall not have the right to exercise this option during the period between the date of cure by the Participant.

(d) Exercise Period Upon Death or Disability. If the Participant dies or is terminated as a result of a Disability (as defined in the Employment Agreement) prior to the Final Exercise Date while he or she is an Eligible Participant and the Company has not terminated such relationship for Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), this option shall be exercisable, within the period of one year following the date of death or such termination of the Participant, by the Participant (or in the case of death by an authorized transferee), provided that this option shall be exercisable only to the extent that this option was exercisable by the Participant on the date of his or her death or such termination, and further provided that this option shall not be exercisable after the Final Exercise Date.

4. Agreement in Connection with Public Offering.

The Participant agrees, in connection with an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act, (i) not to sell, make short sale of, loan, grant any options for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock held by the Participant (other than those shares included in the offering) without the prior written consent of the Company or the underwriters managing such initial underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities for a period of 90 days from the effective date of such registration statement, and (ii) to execute any agreement reflecting clause (i) above as may be requested by the Company or the managing underwriters at the time of such offering to support the marketing of the offering; provided that this section will only apply if all continuing officers and directors of the Company are also subject to the similar lock-up; and provided further that this section will not prevent sales pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan established by the Participant prior to notice of a lock-up required under this section being delivered to the Participant.

5. Withholding.

No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of this option unless and until the Participant pays to the Company, or makes provision satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any federal, state or local withholding taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of this option.

6. Transferability of Option.

This option may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the Participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the Participant, this option shall be exercisable only by the Participant; except that the Participant may make a gratuitous transfer of this option to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust or family partnership established solely for the benefit of the Participant and/or an immediate family member thereof; provided that, with respect to such proposed transferee, the Company would be eligible to use a Form S-8 for the registration of the sale of the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and provided further that such transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this option .

7. Capital Changes and Business Successions.

It is the purpose of this option to encourage the Participant to work for the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Since, for example, that might require the issuance of a stock dividend or a merger with another corporation, the purpose of this option would not be served if such a stock dividend, merger or similar occurrence would cause the Participant’s rights hereunder to be diluted or terminated and thus be contrary to the Participant’s interest. The Plan contains extensive provisions designed to preserve options at full value in a number of contingencies. Therefore, provisions in the Plan for adjustment with respect to stock subject to options and the related provisions with respect to successors to the business of the Company are hereby made applicable hereunder and are incorporated herein by reference, but such provisions will not supersede the provisions of Section 2 hereof, providing for vesting of this option.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this option to be executed under its corporate seal by its duly authorized officer. This option shall take effect as a sealed instrument.

Restricted Stock Agreement

AGREEMENT made this 30th day of May, 2005, between Eclipsys Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Brian W. Copple (the “Participant”).

For valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Purchase of Shares.

The Company shall issue and sell to the Participant, and the Participant shall purchase from the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, 60,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $.01 par value, of the Company (“Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $0.01 per share. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares shall be paid by the Participant by check payable to the order of the Company or such other method as may be acceptable to the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of payment for the Shares, the Company shall issue the Shares to the Participant and document the issuance by delivering to the Participant one or more certificates in the name of the Participant for that number of Shares purchased by the Participant, or causing the Participant’s ownership of the Shares to be reflected by book entry transfer. The Participant agrees that the Shares shall be subject to the purchase options set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement and the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.

The Shares are granted to the Participant pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). Determinations made and definitions used in connection with the Shares by reference to the provisions of the Plan shall be governed by the Plan as it exists on this date.

2. Purchase Option.

(a) In the event that the Participant ceases to be employed by the Company for any reason or no reason, with or without cause, prior to May 30, 2010, the Company shall have the right and option (the “Purchase Option”) to purchase from the Participant, for a sum of $0.01 per share (the “Option Price”) and in the manner described below, some or all of the Shares that are Unvested Shares (as described in Section 3) as of the date of termination of employment.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, employment with the Company shall include employment with a parent or subsidiary of the Company.

(c) In the event that the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or Disability (as defined in the Employment Agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Participant (the “Employment Agreement”)), the number of the Shares for which the Purchase Option becomes exercisable shall be fifty percent (50%) of the number of Unvested Shares for which the Purchase Option would otherwise be exercisable on the date of termination.

(d) The Company may exercise the Purchase Option by delivering or mailing to the Participant (or his estate), within 90 days after the termination of the employment of the Participant with the Company, a written notice of exercise of the Purchase Option. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares to be purchased. If and to the extent the Purchase Option is not so exercised by the giving of such a notice within such 90-day period, the Purchase Option shall automatically expire and terminate effective upon the expiration of such 90-day period.

(e) Within 10 days after delivery to the Participant of the Company’s notice of the exercise of the Purchase Option pursuant to subsection (d) above, the Participant (or his estate) shall tender to the Company at its principal offices the certificate or certificates representing the Shares which the Company has elected to purchase in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (if certificates for such Unvested Shares have been issued to the Participant), duly endorsed in blank or with duly endorsed stock powers attached thereto, all in form suitable for the transfer of such Shares to the Company. Promptly following its receipt of such certificate or certificates, or concurrently with delivery of the notice of exercise of the Purchase Option if certificates for Unvested Shares have not been issued to the Participant, the Company shall pay to the Participant the aggregate Option Price for such Shares (provided that any delay in making such payment shall not invalidate the Company’s exercise of the Purchase Option with respect to such Shares, but the Company shall not become the owner of any Shares until the Option Price for such Shares is paid).

(f) After the time at which any Shares are required to be delivered to the Company for transfer to the Company pursuant to subsection (e) above, the Company shall not pay any dividend to the Participant on account of such Shares or permit the Participant to exercise any of the privileges or rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, but shall, in so far as permitted by law, treat the Company as the owner of such Shares.

(g) The Option Price may be payable, at the option of the Company, in cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Participant to the Company or in cash (by check) or both.

(h) The Company shall not purchase any fraction of a Share upon exercise of the Purchase Option, and any fraction of a Share resulting from a computation made pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement shall be rounded to the nearest whole Share (with any one-half Share being rounded upward).

(i) The Company may assign its Purchase Option to one or more persons or entities.

3. Vesting.

(a) On any given date, Shares that would be Unvested Shares (as defined below) if the Purchase Option became exercisable on that date will be considered Unvested Shares, and Shares that would not be Unvested Shares on that date will be considered vested Shares. Vested Shares are no longer subject to the Purchase Option or restrictions on transfer pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) “Unvested Shares” means the total number of Shares multiplied by the Applicable Percentage at the Measurement Date. The “Measurement Date” shall be the time the Purchase Option becomes exercisable by the Company; provided, however, that, in the event the employment of the Participant is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause, death or Disability, or by the Participant with Good Reason, as described in Section 6(a) of the Employment Agreement, the Measurement Date shall be the first anniversary of the time the Purchase Option becomes exercisable by the Company. The “Applicable Percentage” shall be (i) 100% for any Measurement Date during the period ending May 30, 2006, (ii) for Measurement Dates during the 48-month period ending May 30, 2010, a percentage equal to (x) 100% less (y) 1.667% for each month having elapsed from the date of this Agreement until the Measurement Date, and (iii) zero for Measurement Dates on or after May 30, 2010. For purposes of this definition, a “month” shall be deemed to be the monthly period ending on the 30th day of each consecutive calendar month (or the last day of February). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the employment of the Participant is terminated in connection with a Change in Control as described in Section 6(d) of the Employment Agreement, the Applicable Percentage shall immediately become zero.

4. Restrictions on Transfer.

The Participant shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, by operation of law or otherwise (collectively “transfer”) any Shares, or any interest therein, that are Unvested Shares, except that the Participant may transfer such Shares (i) to or for the benefit of any spouse, children, parents, uncles, aunts, siblings, grandchildren and any other relatives approved by the Board of Directors (collectively, “Approved Relatives”) or to a trust established solely for the benefit of the Participant and/or Approved Relatives, provided that such Shares shall remain subject to this Agreement (including without limitation the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4 and the Purchase Option) and such permitted transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or (ii) as part of the sale of all or substantially all of the shares of capital stock of the Company (including pursuant to a merger or consolidation), provided that the securities or other property received by the Participant in connection with such transaction shall remain subject to this Agreement.

5. Agreement in Connection with Public Offering.

The Participant agrees, in connection with an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act, (i) not to sell, make short sale of, loan, grant any options for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock held by the Participant (other than those shares included in the offering) without the prior written consent of the Company or the underwriters managing such initial underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities for a period of 90 days from the effective date of such registration statement, and (ii) to execute any agreement reflecting clause (i) above as may be requested by the Company or the managing underwriters at the time of such offering to support the marketing of the offering; provided that this section will only apply if all continuing officers and directors of the Company are also subject to a similar lock-up; and provided further that this section will not prevent sales pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan established by the Participant prior to notice of a lock-up required under this section being delivered to the Participant.

6. [Intentionally deleted]

7. Restrictive Legends.

All certificates representing Unvested Shares shall have affixed thereto legends in substantially the following form, in addition to any other legends that may be required under federal or state securities laws:

“The shares of stock represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on transfer and an option to purchase set forth in a certain Restricted Stock Agreement between the corporation and the registered owner of these shares (or his predecessor in interest), and such Agreement is available for inspection without charge at the office of the Secretary of the corporation.”

The Company will, upon request by the Participant, issue certificates without legends representing Shares that are not Unvested Shares.

8. Acquisition Event. Upon the occurrence of an Acquisition Event (as defined in the Plan), in which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive in respect of such shares any additional shares or new or different shares or securities, cash or other consideration (including, without limitation, a different number of shares of Common Stock)(the “Exchange Consideration”), then the Participant shall be entitled to receive a proportionate share of the Exchange Consideration in exchange for any Shares then owned by the Participant, and the repurchase and other rights of the Company hereunder shall inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor and shall apply to the Exchange Consideration which the Shares were converted into or exchanged for pursuant to such Acquisition Event in the same manner and to the same extent as they applied to the Shares under this Agreement. If, in connection with an Acquisition Event, the Participant in his discretion agrees in writing that a portion of the cash, securities and/or other property received upon the conversion or exchange of the Shares is to be placed into escrow to secure indemnification or similar obligations, the mix between the vested and unvested portion of such cash, securities and/or other property that is placed into escrow shall be the same as the mix between the vested and unvested portion of such cash, securities and/or other property that is not subject to escrow.

9. Withholding Taxes; Section 83(b) Election.

(a) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company has the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to the Participant any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the purchase of the Shares by the Participant or the lapse of the Purchase Option.

(b) The Participant has reviewed with the Participant’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Participant understands that the Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for the Participant’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Participant understands that it may be beneficial in many circumstances to elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased rather than when and as the Company’s Purchase Option expires by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the I.R.S. within 30 days from the date of purchase.

THE PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE PARTICIPANT’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF THE PARTICIPANT REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON THE PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) No Rights to Employment. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the vesting of the Shares pursuant to Section 3 hereof is earned only by continuing service as an employee at the will of the Company (not through the act of being hired or purchasing shares hereunder) or through vesting in connection with certain specified events of termination of employment. The Participant further acknowledges and agrees that the transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth herein do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued engagement as an employee or consultant for the vesting period, for any period, or at all.

(b) Adjustments for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, etc. If there is any stock split-up, stock dividend, stock distribution or other reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company during the term of this Agreement, any and all new, substituted or additional securities to which the Participant is entitled by reason of his ownership of the Unvested Shares shall immediately become Unvested Shares and be subject to the restrictions on transfer and the other provisions of this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Unvested Shares, and the Option Price shall be appropriately adjusted.

(c) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and each other provision of this Agreement shall be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

(d) Waiver. Any provision for the benefit of the Company contained in this Agreement may be waived, either generally or in any particular instance, by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(e) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Participant and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns, subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.

(f) Notice. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or five days after deposit in the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address shown beneath his or its respective signature to this Agreement, or at such other address or addresses as either party shall designate to the other in accordance with this Section 10(f).

(g) Pronouns. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural, and vice versa.

(h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.

(i) Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by both the Company and the Participant.

(j) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any applicable conflicts of laws.

(k) Voting and Other Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to all of the Shares, whether or not they are Unvested Shares, including without limitation the right to vote such Shares and the right to receive all dividends or other distributions with respect to such Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Participant does not file an 83(b) election with respect to the Shares, all dividends with respect to Unvested Shares will be taxable to the Participant as compensation income and will be subject to all applicable withholding taxes.

(l) Participant’s Acknowledgments. The Participant acknowledges that he or she: (i) has read this Agreement; (ii) has been represented in the preparation, negotiation, and execution of this Agreement by legal counsel of the Participant’s own choice or has voluntarily declined to seek such counsel; (iii) understands the terms and consequences of this Agreement; (iv) is fully aware of the legal and binding effect of this Agreement; and (v) understands that the law firm of Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, is acting as counsel to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, and is not acting as counsel for the Participant.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
