2000 Management Incentive Plan (MIP)
Plan Objective
The objective of Coventry Health Care’s (CHC) 2000 Management Incentive Plan (MIP) is to reward employees for their contribution to the achievement of company-wide, business unit, health plan, and team/individual goals.
Plan Year
The plan year will be consistent with CHC's fiscal year, January 1 through December 31, 2000.Eligibility
The CEO of CHC will determine eligible employees prior to the beginning of the plan year. Participants in CHC’s sales incentive plans are not eligible for the MIP. Participants must be actively employed at the time incentive checks are distributed to receive an incentive payment. MIP payouts may be prorated based on hire date or the promotion date of each participant.
Timing of Incentive Payouts
Incentive payouts will be made as soon as possible after the close of the fiscal year and after CHC’s year-end financial results are finalized (approximately, February/March, 2001).

Health Plan Results
The performance of each Health Plan will be based on the achievement of its Plan Contribution and Revenue Growth goals as set forth in the 2000 Budget. The two key goals are weighted as follows:
Incentive Pool Funding
Target incentive pools will be calculated separately for each Health Plan and Corporate. The number of eligible employees, individual incentive targets and each eligible employee’s base pay will determine each budgeted target incentive pool.
Actual funding of incentive pools is based on the results achieved by each Health Plan and the overall performance of Coventry Health Care, Inc.
Health Plan Incentive Pool
Each Health Plan’s incentive pool is funded based on the achievement of its Plan Contribution and Revenue Growth goals. Each Health Plan’s pool will be modified based on the achievement of CHC’s EPS goal. The following chart will be utilized to calculate the final incentive pool for each Health Plan.

Example Incentive Pool Calculation
Example 1: The Health Plan achieves 90% of its Plan Contribution goal, which results in the target incentive pool being decreased to 50% (as determined in the discretion of the Compensation and Benefits Committee) of the budgeted target pool. CHC achieves 95% of its Earnings Per Share Goal, thus modifying the Health Plan’s pool downward by .90. The final incentive pool equals 45% of the budgeted target pool.
Example 2: The Health Plan achieves 120% of its Plan Contribution goal, which results in the target incentive pool being increased to 120% of the budgeted target pool. CHC achieves 130% of its Earnings Per Share Goal, thus modifying the Health Plan’s pool upward by 1.2. The final incentive pool equals 144% of the budgeted target pool.
Corporate Incentive Pool
The corporate incentive pool is funded based on the achievement of CHC's EPS goal.

Individual Incentive Payout Calculation
Individual incentive awards will be determined by the following:Individual incentive awards can vary between 0% and 200% of their incentive target opportunity.
Form of Payment
Amounts < = $10,000 (Net) - 100% paid in cash.
Amounts > $10,000 (Net) – first $10,000 (Net) paid in
cash. Remaining net award will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in CHC stock (valued
at the date of payout or such earlier date as the Compensation and Benefits
Committee may determine), or in such other proportions as the CEO may determine
to be appropriate.
