ARTICLE V

PURCHASING AGENT; STOCK PURCHASES

The purchase of Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH, as provided herein, shall be the responsibility of the Purchasing Agent, which shall not be an affiliate of any Company. At each time that Director’s Fees (or any portion thereof) are paid, the Trustee shall notify the Purchasing Agent of the amount attributed to the Participants' Deferred Accounts to be invested as soon as practicable after the amounts are determined. The Purchasing Agent shall exercise reasonable care in applying said amount to the purchase of shares of Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH and shall apply said amount promptly after such notification and, in any event, within thirty (30) days after such notification, unless a longer period is necessary to comply with federal securities laws. Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH may be purchased by the Purchasing Agent on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or upon exercise of any conversion privileges or other options with respect to any and all Common Stock held as part by the Trustee. Immediately upon the purchase of Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH, the Purchasing Agent shall notify the Trustee of the amount of funds invested in such Common Stock and the Trustee shall promptly remit said amount to the Purchasing Agent.

Except as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Purchasing Agent shall have no authority over, or responsibility for, the management of the assets of the Plan or any Trust. The Purchasing Agent shall have all powers necessary or appropriate to enable it to properly carry out

its duties in connection with the purchase of Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH pursuant to this Plan, including, but not limited to, the following powers and duties:

(A)

To make, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any and all documents of transfer and conveyance and any and all other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to enable the Purchasing Agent to carry out the powers herein granted;

(B)

To employ suitable agents and counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), subject to the approval of HEALTHSOUTH; and to pay the reasonable expenses and compensation of such agents and counsel; and

(C)

To exercise any conversion privileges or other options with respect to Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH held as a part of the Trust and to make any payments incidental thereto.

Neither the Committee, the Trustee, nor any Company shall have any direct or indirect control or influence over the times when, or the prices at which, the Purchasing Agent may purchase Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH, the amounts of such Common Stock to be purchased, the manner in which such Common Stock is to be purchased, or the selection of a broker or dealer through which purchases may be executed.

Neither the Purchasing Agent, the Committee, the Trustee, nor any Company shall have any responsibility as to the value of Company Stock of HEALTHSOUTH acquired by the Trust and attributable to any Participant's Stock Account.

ARTICLE VI

STOCK ACCOUNTS

After each purchase of Common Stock for the Plan by the Purchasing Agent, the Purchasing Agent will advise the Trustee of the number of shares purchased and of the average cost per share of such Common Stock. The Trustee will then make a bookkeeping charge against each Participant's Deferred Account in the amount of the average cost of the Common Stock to be allocated to the Participant's Stock Account. The accounting for the Stock Accounts shall include full shares and any fractional share interest in a share (to four decimal places).

ARTICLE VII

ASSIGNMENTS

No claim, right, or interest of any Participant under the Plan may be transferred or assigned by voluntary or involuntary act of the Participant or beneficiary hereunder, nor shall they be subject to anticipation, alienation, assignment, garnishment, attachment, receivership, execution, sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, or levy by creditors of the Participant or the Participant's beneficiary hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Cash dividends, if any, payable on the Common Stock attributable to a Participant's Stock Account will be accounted for in such Participant's Deferred Account for reinvestment in Common Stock. Stock dividends and stock splits payable on the Common Stock attributable to a Participant's Stock Account will be accounted for in such Participant's Stock Account.

ARTICLE IX

VOTING RIGHTS

A Participant shall have no rights to vote any stock purchased by the Purchasing Agent and held in his/her Stock Account under the Plan.

ARTICLE X

REPORTS TO PARTICIPANTS

As soon as is practicable following the end of each quarter, or more often at the direction of the Committee, the Committee will send to each Participant a written report of any transactions attributable to such Participant's Deferred Account and Stock Account and of the balance to the credit of such Participant's Deferred Account and Stock Account as of the date of the report.

ARTICLE XI

WITHDRAWAL FROM PLAN

A Participant may stop deferring Director’s Fees to the Plan by giving written notice of withdrawal to the Secretary of the Company. Such withdrawal will be effective on the first day of the calendar year following the date such notice is actually given to the Secretary. Such

withdrawal will not affect the date of payment of any amount deferred prior to the effective date of such withdrawal. A Participant who has withdrawn may re-enter the Plan by submitting a revised Authorization for Participation to the Secretary in accordance with Article II of the Plan, provided such revised Authorization for Participation shall be effective as of the first day of the calendar year following the date the revised Authorization for Participation is actually delivered to the Secretary.

ARTICLE XII

WITHHOLDING

The Company shall make required reporting and withholding of any applicable federal, state or local taxes with respect to benefit distributions under the Plan, and shall pay such amounts to the appropriate taxing authorities. Not withstanding the preceding, to the extent that withholding of such taxes is not required for distributions of stock under the Plan, no such withholding shall be made.

ARTICLE XIII

TIME OF PAYMENT

The payment of deferred balance under the Plan will be made as promptly as practicable after the date the Participant ceases to serve as a Director of HEALTHSOUTH, unless the Participant is subject to the Treasury regulations applicable to “specified employees” under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and any regulations or other guidance issued thereunder, the Company shall pay the deferred balance as promptly as practicable after the date which is six (6) months following the Participant’s separation from service. For this purpose, the term “specified employee” shall have an identification date of December 31.

ARTICLE XIV

TERMINATION OF SERVICE

Participation in the Plan by a Participant shall automatically terminate, without notice, upon termination of the Participant's services for which the Participant receives Director’s Fees, whether

such termination is by reason of resignation, replacement or death. If termination is other than by reason of death, the former Participant shall receive, at the time specified in Article XIII, a certificate for any number of full shares attributable to said Participant's Stock Account and not previously distributed, together with a check for any Fractional Share Amount and any remaining amounts to the balance of his or her Deferred Account. If termination is by reason of death, settlement will be made at the same time and in the same manner but will be made with the Participant's beneficiary or contingent beneficiary designated on such Participant's Authorization for Participation. If the Participant has not so designated a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary, or if the designated beneficiary or contingent beneficiary does not survive the Participant, settlement will be made with the Participant's duly appointed legal representative.

ARTICLE XV

MISCELLANEOUS

The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Delaware.

ARTICLE XVI

EXPENSES

HEALTHSOUTH will bear the cost of administering the Plan, including any transfer taxes incurred in transferring Common Stock held for payment under the Plan to Participants. Expenses which an individual would normally pay upon the purchase of stock from a broker, including any broker's fees, commissions, postage or other transaction costs actually incurred, will be included in the amount charged against the Participant's Deferred Account for the purchase of the Common Stock.

ARTICLE XVII

CHANGE OF CONTROL

Upon a Change of Control, the Common Stock attributable to a Participant’s Deferred Stock Account, any amounts attributable to the Participant’s Deferred Account, and any amounts attributable to the Participant’s Fractional Share Account shall be immediately distributed to the Participant or to his beneficiary. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of a specified employee

(as defined in Article XIII) such amounts shall not be distributed prior to the date that is six months after the date of the Participant’s separation from service with the Company.

ARTICLE XVIII

AMENDMENT, TERMINATION, AND SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN

HEALTHSOUTH reserves the right, by action of the Board, to amend the Plan at any time; provided (i) that no amendment shall affect or diminish any Participant’s right to the deferrals made by such Participant or contributions by the Company prior to the date of such amendment, and (ii) that no amendment shall affect a Participant’s deferral election at any time before January 1 of the calendar year following the year in which such amendment is adopted.

HEALTHSOUTH reserves the right, by action of the Board, to terminate the Plan as of any December 31 on or after the date of such Board action. In the event of such termination, there will be no further Participant deferrals to the Plan. Upon termination of the Plan, the Board may further specify that accounts under the Plan shall be paid to the Participants, provided that: (i) no such payment is made before the earlier of the date that is 12 months after the date of Plan termination or the date the payment would otherwise have been made; (ii) no such payment is made later than the date that is 24 months after the date of Plan termination; and (iii) all other requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(h)(2)(viii)(C) (as it may be amended, or such other regulation or ruling that replaces such section) are met.

ARTICLE XIX

EFFECT OF ILLEGALITY OF PURCHASES OF COMMON STOCK OF HEALTHSOUTH

In the event it is determined by the Board, after obtaining the advice of legal counsel, that purchases of the Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH by the Trust would be prohibited under any federal or state law, then the Committee shall direct that Participant deferrals shall be invested as necessary in such other investments as the Committee determines to be most appropriate under the circumstances, and the accounts of the Participants will be credited with investment earnings in accordance with such investments (and amounts so invested shall not be credited with the returns applicable to amounts invested in HEALTHSOUTH Common Stock). At such time as the Board determines that purchases of Common Stock of HEALTHSOUTH

may again be made legally, such alternate investments shall be liquidated and the proceeds used to purchase Common Stock, and the accounts of the affected Participants shall be credited with appropriate returns thereafter.

ARTICLE XX

NATURE OF COMPANY'S OBLIGATION

The Company's obligations under this Plan shall be an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay benefits in the future. It is the intention of the Company that the Plan shall be unfunded for purposes of federal and state income tax and for purposes of ERISA. The Company shall not be obligated under any circumstances to fund its obligations under this Plan. The Company may, however, as its sole and exclusive option, elect to fund this Plan, in whole or in part. If the Company shall elect to fund the Plan, in whole or in part, the manner of such funding, and the continuance or discontinuance of such funding shall be the sole and exclusive decision of the Company. Any payments to Participant from such a funding source shall be made from a trust, such as one commonly described as a rabbi trust, and shall fully discharge, to the extent thereof, the Company's obligations under the Plan.

Any assets which the Company may acquire or set aside to help cover its financial liabilities under the Plan are and must remain general assets of the Company subject to the claims of its creditors. Neither the Company nor this Plan gives a Participant any beneficial ownership interest in any asset of the Company. All rights of ownership in any such assets are and remain in the Company. Participants in the Plan therefore have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company.
