On January 29, 2015, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of HCA Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), approved an award of stock appreciation rights to the following named executive officers of the Company. Below is the number of stock appreciation rights granted to these individuals on February 4, 2015:

Rights
 

R. Milton Johnson

   Chairman and Chief Executive Officer      156,000   

William B. Rutherford

   Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer      37,000   

Samuel N. Hazen

Jonathan B. Perlin, M.D.

   President – Clinical Services Group and Chief Medical Officer      24,000   

The stock appreciation rights have a base price equal to the closing market price for the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant (February 4, 2015), and expire ten years from the date of grant. The stock appreciation rights granted are time-based, with 25% vesting on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. The stock appreciation rights will be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock. The stock appreciation rights will continue to vest on their normal vesting schedule if assumed in connection with a change in control, as defined in the stock appreciation rights award agreement, provided that any unvested stock appreciation rights will vest immediately if the recipient’s employment is terminated by the successor without cause, by the recipient for good reason or on account of the recipient’s death or disability, each as defined in the stock appreciation rights award agreement. If the successor to a change in control does not assume the stock appreciation rights, any unvested stock appreciation rights will vest upon the change in control. The stock appreciation rights were awarded pursuant to the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan for Key Employees of HCA Holdings, Inc. and its Affiliates, as Amended and Restated (the “Plan”).

The form of stock appreciation rights agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Performance Share Units

On January 29, 2015, the Committee also approved an award of performance share units to the following named executive officers of the Company. Below is the target number of performance share units granted to these individuals on February 4, 2015:

Name

  

Title

   Target
Performance
Share Units
 

R. Milton Johnson

   Chairman and Chief Executive Officer      62,400   

William B. Rutherford

   Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer      14,700   

Samuel N. Hazen

   Chief Operating Officer      23,500   

Jon M. Foster

   President – American Group      9,600   

Jonathan B. Perlin, M.D.

   President – Clinical Services Group and Chief Medical Officer      9,600   

        The performance share units are measured over a three fiscal year performance period. Each performance share unit represents the right to receive, if and to the extent the cumulative earnings per share performance targets covering the three fiscal year performance period are satisfied, a share of the Company’s common stock following completion of the performance period. At the end of the performance period, the performance share units will be distributed (to the extent earned and vested) in shares of the Company’s common stock based upon the level of achievement of the cumulative earnings per share performance targets set for the performance period as determined by the Committee. If the Company fails to meet the threshold performance for the three fiscal year performance period, no performance share units will vest and no payout of Company common stock will be made with respect to the performance period for such performance share units. If the Company’s performance exceeds the target performance, the recipient may receive additional performance share units above the target number, subject to a maximum of 200% of the target award. The performance share units, which were awarded pursuant to the Plan, will be converted into a time-based instrument based on target performance of the Company if assumed in connection with a change in control, as defined in the performance share unit award agreement, as of the date of such change in control. In the event the performance share units have been converted into a time-based instrument, the recipient must remain employed for the remainder of the original three fiscal year performance period in order to receive payment for the performance share units, but payment will be accelerated if the recipient’s employment is terminated by the successor without cause, by the recipient for good reason or on account of the recipient’s death or disability, each as defined in the performance share unit award agreement. If the successor to a change in control does not assume the performance share units, the performance share units will be paid out in connection with the change in control based on the target award. Each recipient’s performance share unit award agreement contains provisions dealing with, among other things, (i) the effect on the award of the termination of the recipient’s service as an employee of the Company whether by retirement, disability, death, or voluntary or involuntary termination; (ii) the performance share units’ transferability; and (iii) the settlement of the performance share units.

The form of performance share unit agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
