Consultant will have no authority to bind the Company to any contractual obligations, whether written, oral or implied. Consultant agrees not to represent or purport to represent Company in any manner whatsoever to any third party. As part of this consulting relationship, Consultant agrees and acknowledges that the following additional restrictive covenants shall apply during the Consulting Period and for the additional period outlined below:

(a)During the Consulting Period and for twelve (12) months after the termination of the Consulting Period for any reason, Consultant will not directly or indirectly, in a competitive capacity within the Territory, own, manage, finance, operate, control or participate in ownership, management, finance, operation or control of, act as an agent, consultant, or be employed with, any Person that is engaged in the Business.

(b)During the Consulting Period and for twenty-four (24) months after the termination of the Consulting Period for any reason, (A) Consultant will not directly or indirectly encourage, solicit, or induce, or attempt to encourage, solicit or induce any then-current employee, agent, contractor or representative of the Company and/or the other Affiliated Companies to terminate such Person’s employment or contractual relationship with the Company or any of the other Affiliated Companies (or devote less than full time efforts to its business), and (B) Consultant will not directly or indirectly hire or attempt to hire: (1) for any competitive position with any competitor any Person who is an employee, agent, contractor or representative of the Company or any of the other Affiliated Companies at such time (or who has been an employee, agent, contractor or representative of the Company or any of the other Affiliated Companies at any time within the preceding year) or (2) for any position with any business any Person who is an employee, agent, contractor or representative of the Company or any of the other Affiliated Companies at such time (or who has been an employee, agent, contractor or representative of the Company or any of the other Affiliated Companies at any time within the preceding year or during the Consulting Period).

(e)Any capitalized term used in this Section 3 and that is not defined in this Section 3 shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Employment Agreement.

4.Separation Consideration. As consideration for the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, and only if this Agreement becomes effective and is not revoked within sixty (60) days of the Resignation Date, Company agrees as follows: (the following is, collectively, the “Separation Consideration”).

(a)Executive is a party to that certain Management Stockholders’ Agreement dated December 7, 2017 by and among BrightSpring, KKR Phoenix Aggregator, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“KKR”), and the other parties identified as Management Stockholders (which includes Executive) (as amended, the “Stockholders Agreement”). For outstanding stock options issued under the 2017 Plan (as defined below): (a) Executive may pay the exercise price by delivering irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell a portion of the shares subject to the stock options sufficient to pay the applicable aggregate exercise price for each grant and to remit any amount equal to such aggregate exercise price to the Company in cash and satisfy any applicable tax liability incurred upon exercise of stock options by delivering irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell a portion of the shares subject to such stock options determined by Company in its discretion to be sufficient to cover the tax withholding obligations of Company and to remit any amount equal to such tax withholding obligations to Company (collectively, “Sell to Cover”), and (b) solely for purposes of the Sell to Cover, the provisions of Section 2(a)(i) of the Stockholders Agreement are waived.

(b)Executive holds vested stock options granted to Executive pursuant to the Amended and Restated Phoenix Parent Holdings Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2017 Plan”) and the grant notice(s) and award agreement(s) issued to Executive thereunder (collectively, with the 2017 Plan, the “2017 Plan Documents”) and the time period for Executive to exercise any stock options that are vested under the 2017 Plan Documents on the Resignation Date shall be amended and extended to end on the last day of their Option Period (as defined in the 2017 Plan Documents). Executive agrees that

Resignation agreement Page 3

all unvested stock options under the 2017 Plan Documents on the Resignation Date are hereby forfeited, terminated and of no further force or effect.

(c)Executive and Company are parties to the letter agreement dated February 10, 2021 (the “Rollover Agreement”) whereby Executive acquired shares of stock in Company (the “Rollover Equity”). The provisions of Section 2(a)(i) of the Stockholders Agreement are waived solely for purposes of allowing Executive to sell up to the difference (if a positive number) between (i) 60% of the Rollover Equity, less (ii) the percentage of Rollover Equity sold on or prior to the Effective Date (the “Remaining Rollover Equity”), in the following percentage: (i) 60% of the Remaining Rollover Equity beginning 90 days after the Effective Date, (ii) 30% of the Remaining Rollover Equity beginning 180 days after the Effective Date and (iii) 10% of the Remaining Rollover Equity beginning 270 days after the Effective Date.

(d)On and after January 17, 2026, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive may request from Company permission for Executive to serve on the board of directors of entities engaged in the Business and if such request is approved by Company then Executive may serve on such board of directors as long as such entity agrees with Company not to solicit or hire management or sales level employees of Company while Executive is so engaged.

The Separation Consideration reflects consideration provided to Executive over and above anything of value to which Executive is already is entitled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive shall be entitled to Executive’s Base Salary through the Resignation Date and such employee benefits, if any, as to which Executive may be entitled under the retirement and health benefit plans of Company according to their terms (the “Accrued Rights”).

5.Treatment of 2024 Equity Grants and Phantom Shares During Consulting Period.

(a)Continued Vesting of Equity. Executive’s resignation shall not constitute a “Termination” under the BrightSpring Health Services, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”). Thus, so long as Executive continues to provide the Consulting Services for the duration of the Consulting Period (or if the Company terminates the Consulting Services prior to January 26, 2027 other than for cause), the unvested stock options and restricted stock units granted to the Executive pursuant to the 2024 Plan and the grant notice(s) and award agreement(s) issued to Executive thereunder (the “2024 Grant Agreements” and together with the 2024 Plan, the “2024 Plan Documents” and, collectively with the 2017 Plan Documents, the “Stock Incentive Plan Documents”) shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest through January 26, 2027 pursuant to their respective terms (such awards, the “Outstanding Equity Grants”). In all cases, any portion of the Outstanding Equity Grants that have not vested as of the last day of the Consulting Period shall be automatically forfeited for no additional consideration, and Executive shall have the full remaining option term to exercise any portion of the Outstanding Equity Grants that have vested as of the last day of the Consulting Period.

(b)Phantom Shares. For purposes of the Phantom Shares that Executive holds in the BrightSpring Health Services Home Health and Hospice business (the “Phantom Shares”), Executive’s provision of the Consulting Services renders him a “contracted consultant” and so the Phantom Shares shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest until the last day of the Consulting Period (or if the Company terminates the Consulting Services prior to January 26, 2027 other than for cause, then through January 26, 2027). In all cases,

Resignation agreement Page 4

any portion of the Phantom Shares that have not vested as of the last day of the Consulting Period shall be automatically cancelled and forfeited for no additional consideration.

6.Tax. The Company will not make any withholdings or deductions, and will issue a Form 1099 to the Executive, with respect to the Consulting Fee. Executive shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to the Consulting Fee and hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Company from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, taxes, fines or penalties sought or recovered by any governmental entity, including but not limited to the Internal Revenue Service or any state taxing authority, arising out of or in connection with the advisory fees.
