Exhibit 10.35

DIRECTOR NOMINATING AGREEMENT

THIS DIRECTOR NOMINATING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of September     , 2014, by and among Civitas Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and NMH Investment, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“NMH Investment”).

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to grant certain director nomination rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock of the Company currently held by NMH Investment, as provided further herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, each intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. Board Nomination Rights.

(a) From and after the date of the consummation of the initial public offering of the common stock of the Company (the “Initial Public Offering”) and until the provisions of this Section 1 cease to be effective and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the NMH Investment Majority Holders shall have the right to nominate persons for election to the Board (each a “Nominee”) as follows:

(i) eight (8) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 40% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class;

(ii) seven (7) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 35% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class;

(iii) six (6) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 30% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class;

(iv) five (5) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 25% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class;

(v) four (4) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 20% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class;

(vi) three (3) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 15% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class;

(vii) two (2) of nine (9) of the directors shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 10% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class; and

(viii) one (1) director shall be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders so long as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates continue to hold Voting Securities representing at least 5% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class.

(b) The authorized number of directors on the Board shall initially be nine (9). For as long as the NMH Investment Majority Holders shall have any nomination rights under this Section 1, the Company shall not take any action to increase or reduce the size of the Board from nine (9) without the written consent of the NMH Investment Majority Holders. If the size of the Board is increased or reduced, then the number of directors the NMH Investment Majority Holders have the right to nominate at each level of ownership set forth in Section 1(a) shall increase or decrease ratably, so that it is equal to the product of (i) a ratio, which is calculated by dividing the number of directors to be nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders specified in the applicable sub-paragraph of Section 1(a) by the total number of directors then serving on the Board, multiplied by (ii) the total number of directors then serving on the Board, rounded up to the next whole number in all cases.

(c) After the NMH Investment Majority Holders cease to have any nominations rights under this Section 1, the Board shall determine the size (i.e., number of Board seats) of the Board in accordance with the Company’s organizational documents.

(d) The representatives designated hereunder by the NMH Investment Majority Holders shall be nominated to serve as a Class I, Class II or Class III director (as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation), as the case may be. The initial term of each Class I, Class II and Class III director shall expire as set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Any director nominated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders hereunder to fill a vacancy on the Board shall be designated as the same class of director as the director whose termination of services as a director created such vacancy.

(e) The Company shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each director in connection with attending the meetings of the Board and any committee thereof.

(f) At every meeting of the Board, or a committee thereof, for which directors are nominated to stand for election by stockholders of the Company, the NMH Investment Majority Holders will have the right to select those persons to be nominated for election to the Board for each Retiring Director that was a prior Nominee of the NMH Investment Majority Holders in accordance with this Section 1.

2

(g) If a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of a Nominee, the NMH Investment Majority Holders shall be entitled to nominate such person’s successors in accordance with this Agreement and the Board, subject to a determination of the Board in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel that such action would not constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties or applicable law, shall fill the vacancy with such successor Nominee.

(h) If a Nominee is not nominated or elected to the Board because of the Nominee’s death, disability, disqualification, withdrawal as a nominee or for other reason is unavailable or unable to serve on the Board, the NMH Investment Majority Holders shall be entitled to nominate promptly another Nominee and the director position for which such Nominee was nominated shall not be filled pending such nomination.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at such time as NMH Investment, Vestar and Vestar’s Affiliates hold Voting Securities representing less than 5% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting Securities, voting as a single class, the rights of NMH Investment under this Section 1 shall terminate automatically and cease to have any further force and effect.

2. Company Obligations.

(a) The Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assure that (i) each Nominee is included in the Board’s slate of nominees for each election of directors and (ii) each Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company or the Board with respect to the election of members of the Board.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to cause to be nominated for election to the Board or recommend to the stockholders the election of any Nominee (i) who fails to submit to the Company on a timely basis such questionnaires as the Company may reasonably require of its directors generally and such other information as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of its filings under the Securities Laws or (ii) if the Board or the Nominating Committee determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that such action would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties, applicable law or the New York Stock Exchange listing requirements or violate the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of either (i) or (ii) above, the Company shall promptly notify the NMH Investment Majority Holders of the occurrence of such event and permit the NMH Investment Majority Holders to provide an alternate Nominee sufficiently in advance of any Board action, meeting of the stockholders called or written action of stockholders with respect to such election of Nominees and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under Section 2(a) with respect to such alternate Nominee (provided that if the Company provides at least 45 days advance notice of the occurrence of any such event such alternative Nominee must be designated by the NMH Investment Majority Holders not less than 30 days in advance of any Board action, notice of meeting of the stockholders or written action

3

of stockholders with respect to such election of Nominees). The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under Section 2(a) with respect to such alternate Nominee, provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to postpone, reschedule or delay any scheduled meeting of the stockholders with respect to such election of Nominees.

(c) At any time a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, resignation or removal of a Nominee, then the Board, or any committee thereof, shall not fill such vacancy until the earliest to occur of (i) the NMH Investment Majority Holders have nominated a successor Nominee and the Board has filled the vacancy and appointed such successor Nominee, (ii) the NMH Investment Majority Holders fail to nominate a successor Nominee within 60 Business Days after receiving notification of the vacancy from the Company, and (iii) the NMH Investment Majority Holders have specifically waived their rights under this Section 2(c).
