affecting a participant or the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or in certain other instances specified in the Senior Officer PEP. In addition, in the event the applicable governmental agency adjusts any of the definitions of the
quality of care metrics during the performance period, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the targets, or results, or both, to properly account for such changes, in the Committee&#146;s sole discretion. Awards pursuant to the Senior Officer
PEP are also subject to recovery or adjustment by the Company in certain circumstances in which the operating results on which the payment was based were restated or otherwise adjusted or in the event a participant&#146;s conduct is not in good

encourage outstanding performance from its senior officers. Awards under the Program shall be administered as &#147;Performance-Based Awards&#148; pursuant to the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan for Key Employees of HCA Holdings, Inc. and its Affiliates,
as Amended and Restated (the &#147;2006 Plan&#148;). Subject to applicable law, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect to the Program or any award shall be within the sole discretion of the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of HCA Healthcare, Inc., including any subcommittee formed pursuant to Section&nbsp;3(a) of the 2006 Plan (the &#147;Committee&#148;), may be made at any time and shall be final, conclusive and
binding upon all persons. Designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions made by the Committee with respect to the Program or any Award, including but not limited to the application of the PEP Recoupment Policy, described herein,
need not be uniform and may be made selectively among Participants, whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Participation </B></P>

and such other factors as it may deem appropriate. The targets for the performance criteria shall be determined by the Committee, in its discretion, within the first ninety (90)&nbsp;days of the Fiscal Year. The Committee shall determine and certify
whether and to what extent each performance or other goal has been met prior to the payment of any Award hereunder. A Participant is required to remain employed with the Company through the end of the Fiscal Year in order to have a legally binding
right to the Award. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Awards pursuant to the Program will be paid solely in cash. </P>

subsequent finding that the financial information or performance metrics used by the Committee to determine the amount of the incentive compensation were materially inaccurate, in each case regardless of individual fault. In addition, the Company
may recover any incentive compensation awarded or paid pursuant to this Program based on a Participant&#146;s conduct which is not in good faith and which materially disrupts, damages, impairs or interferes with the business of the Company and its
affiliates. This PEP Recoupment Policy applies to any incentive compensation earned or paid to a Participant pursuant to this Program. Subsequent changes in status, including retirement or termination of employment, do not affect the Company&#146;s
rights to recover compensation under this policy. The Committee will administer this policy and exercise its discretion and business judgment in the fair application of this policy based on the facts and circumstances as it deems relevant in its
sole discretion. More specifically, the Committee shall determine in its discretion any appropriate amounts to recoup, the officers from whom such amounts shall be recouped (which need not be all officers who received the bonus compensation at
issue) and the timing and form of recoupment; provided, that only compensation paid or settled within three years prior to the Committee taking action under this PEP Recoupment Policy shall be subject to recoupment; provided further, that any
recoupment pursuant to clause (i)&nbsp;or (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph shall not exceed the portion of any applicable bonus paid hereunder that is in excess of the amount of performance-based or incentive compensation that would have
been paid or granted based on the actual, restated financial statements or actual level of the applicable financial or performance metrics as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. </P>

by the Company. The Committee will determine, in its sole discretion, the amount, form and timing of any such incremental payments, which shall be no more than the difference between the amount of performance-based compensation that was paid or
