EX10.25 Restrictive Covenant Agreement

1.Consideration for Agreement. I acknowledge that in connection with my duties and responsibilities at CVS Caremark Corporation or one of its subsidiaries or affiliates, including but not limited to CVS (collectively, the “Corporation”), the Corporation has provided me with certain Confidential Information and/or access to the Corporation’s customers and clients and the opportunity to develop and maintain relationships and goodwill with them. In consideration of my promises in this Agreement, CVS promises to continue to provide me with certain Confidential Information and/or the opportunity to develop and maintain relationships with the Corporation’s customers and clients. In addition, as a condition of, and in consideration of the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) the Corporation granted me on April 2, 2012, I hereby agree with CVS to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

a. Competition. Engaging in “Competition” shall mean providing services to a Competitor of the Corporation (whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant, principal, agent, partner, officer, director, investor, or shareholder, except as a shareholder of less than one percent of a publicly traded company) that: (i) are the same or similar in function or purpose to the services I provided to the Corporation during the last two years of my employment by the Corporation, and/or (ii) will likely result in the disclosure of Confidential Information to a Competitor or the use of Confidential Information on behalf of a Competitor. I agree that if an authorized representative of the Corporation, during my employment or the Non-Competition Period, requests that I identify the company or business to which I will be or am providing services, or with which I will be or am employed, and/or requests that I provide information about the services that I am or will be providing to such entity, I shall provide the Corporation with a written statement detailing the identity of the entity and the nature of the services that I am or will be providing to such entity with sufficient detail to allow the Corporation to independently assess whether I am or will be engaging in Competition during the Non-Competition Period. Such statement shall be delivered to the Corporation’s Chief Human

b. Competitor. A “Competitor” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean any person, corporation or other entity that competes with one or more of the business units of the Corporation. As of the Effective Date, it is understood that the Corporation’s business units include: (i) pharmacy benefits management (“PBM”), including the administration of pharmacy benefits for businesses, government agencies and health plans; mail order pharmacy; specialty pharmacy; and Medicare Part D services; (ii) retail, which includes the sale of prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, beauty products and cosmetics, photo finishing, seasonal merchandise, greeting cards, convenience foods and other product lines that are sold by the Corporation’s retail division; and (iii) retail health care (“MinuteClinic”). It is understood and agreed that PBM Competitors include, but are not limited to, Medco Health Solutions, Inc., Express Scripts, Inc., SXC Health Solutions Corp., and Catalyst, Inc., as well as health plans that provide PBM services that compete with the Corporation’s PBM business. It is also understood and agreed that retail Competitors include, chain drug store companies such as Walgreen Co. and Rite Aid Corporation; mass merchants such as Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and Target Corp.; food/drug combinations such as The Kroger Co. and Supervalu Inc.; and other retailers, including dollar stores, that sell one or more product lines that are sold by the Corporation. It is understood and agreed that MinuteClinic Competitors shall include, but are not limited to, Walgreen’s Take Care Clinics, RediClinic, The Little Clinic, and Target Clinic. A person or entity shall not be considered a PBM Competitor unless it provides products or services that are offered by or compete with the products or services offered by CVS Caremark’s PBM business A person or entity shall not be considered a retail Competitor if such entity derives annual gross revenues from its business in an amount that is less than 5% of the Corporation’s gross revenues from its retail business during its most recently completed fiscal year.

I acknowledge and agree that as of the Effective Date, I have had business dealings and/or have been provided with certain Confidential Information regarding the Corporation’s three business units, and as such acknowledge and agree to this enterprise-wide definition of non-competition that will prevent me from providing services to the Corporation’s PBM, retail and MinuteClinic Competitors during the relevant time period. If, for the two years prior to the end of my employment with the Corporation, I continue to have business dealings and/or be provided with certain Confidential Information regarding the Corporation’s three business units, then engaging in Competition shall continue to include providing services to PBM, retail and MinuteClinic Competitors. However, for example, as per Section 2(a) above, if I had business dealings and/or received Confidential Information regarding only one of the three business units during the last two years of my employment with the Corporation, then engaging in Competition shall be limited to providing services to a Competitor of that business unit. By way of further example, and as per Section 2(a) above, if I worked as an executive in the Corporation’s retail division and oversaw the management of dozens of stores during the two years prior to my termination, engaging in Competition would not include working as the store manager or a staff pharmacist for a retail Competitor, where working in such a position would not likely result in the use or disclosure of Confidential Information.

c. Consulting or Audit Services. “Consulting or Audit Services” shall mean any activity that involves providing audit review or other consulting or advisory services with respect to any relationship between the Corporation and any third party, including but not limited to PBM clients, and that is likely to result in the use or disclosure of Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, providing Consulting or Audit Services shall expressly include, but is not limited to, providing such services for Aon Hewitt, Towers Watson and/or Mercer, in connection with their PBM consulting businesses.

d. Non-Competition Period. The “Non-Competition Period” shall be the period of eighteen (18) months following the termination of my employment with the Corporation for any reason, provided that the Corporation may, in its sole discretion, reduce the length of the Non-Competition Period pursuant to a separation agreement or a written modification to this Agreement signed by me and an authorized representative of the Corporation.

a. During the Non-Solicitation Period, which shall be 18 months following the termination of my employment with the Corporation for any reason, I will not, unless a duly authorized officer of the Corporation gives me written authorization to do so, interfere with the Corporation’s business relationships with a Covered Customer by soliciting or communicating (regardless of who initiates the communication) with a Covered Customer to induce or encourage the Covered Customer to (i) stop doing business or reduce its business with the Corporation, or (ii) buy a product or service that competes with a product or service offered by the Corporation’s PBM business. A “Covered Customer” is a customer (person or entity) of the Corporation’s PBM business with which I had business-related contact or dealings, or about and/or from which I received Confidential Information, during the two years prior to my termination with the Corporation. A Covered Customer does not include a customer that has fully and finally decided to cease doing any business with the Corporation independent of any conduct or communications by me or breach of this Agreement, and that has, in fact, ceased doing any business with the Corporation. Nothing in this Paragraph 3(a) shall prevent me from working as a staff pharmacist or in another retail position wherein I would be providing or selling prescriptions or other products directly to consumers.

b. I also agree that during the Non-Solicitation Period, I will not interfere with the Corporation’s relationship with its Business Partners by soliciting or communicating (regardless of who initiates the communication) with a Business Partner to induce or encourage the Business Partner to stop doing business or reduce its business with the Corporation, unless a duly authorized officer of the Corporation gives me written authorization to do so.

Partner for the Corporation. “Business Partner” means a supplier, manufacturer, broker, hospital, hospital system, and/or pharmaceutical company (person or entity) with whom the Corporation has a business relationship and with which I had business-related contact or dealings, or about which I received Confidential Information, in the two years prior to the termination of my employment with the Corporation. A Business Partner does not include a supplier, manufacturer, broker, hospital, hospital system, and/or pharmaceutical company that has fully and finally decided to terminate its business relationship with the Corporation independent of any conduct or communications by me or breach of this Agreement, and which has, in fact, ceased doing any business with the Corporation.

d. I finally agree that during the Non-Solicitation Period, I will not interfere with the Corporation’s relationship with any employee of the Corporation by: (i) soliciting or communicating with the employee to induce or encourage him or her to leave the Corporation’s employ (regardless of who first initiates the communication); (ii) helping another person or entity evaluate such employee as an employment candidate; or (iii) otherwise helping any person or entity hire an employee away from the Corporation unless a duly authorized officer of the Corporation gives me written authorization to do so. Where required by law, the foregoing restriction will only apply to employees with whom I had material contact or about whom I received Confidential Information within the two years prior to the termination of my employment with the Corporation.

a. Subject to Section 7 below, I will not at any time, whether during or after the termination of my employment, reveal to any person or entity any of the Corporation’s Confidential Information, except as may be appropriately required in the ordinary course of performing my duties as an employee of the Corporation. The Corporation’s Confidential Information includes but is not limited to the following non-public information: trade secrets; computer code generated or developed by the Corporation; software or programs and related documentation; strategic compilations and analysis; strategic processes; business or financial methods, practices and plans; non-public costs and prices; operating margins; marketing, merchandising and selling techniques and information; customer lists; details of customer agreements; pricing arrangements with drug manufacturers, including but not limited to any discounts and/or rebates; pharmacy reimbursement rates; expansion strategies; real estate strategies; operating strategies; sources of supply; employee compensation and benefit plans, patient records; and confidential information of third parties which is given to the Corporation pursuant to an obligation or agreement to keep such information confidential (collectively, “Confidential Information”). I shall keep secret all such matters entrusted to me, and I shall not use or attempt to use any Confidential Information on behalf of any person or entity other than the Corporation, or in any manner which may injure or cause loss or may be calculated to injure or cause loss, whether directly or indirectly, to the Corporation. For employees residing in Connecticut, these restrictions on use or disclosure of Confidential Information will only apply for three (3) years after the end of my employment where information that does not qualify as a trade secret is concerned; however, the restrictions will continue apply to trade secret information for as long as the information at issue remains qualified as a trade secret.

b. Further, I agree that, during my employment, I shall not make, use, or permit to be used, any notes, memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data, documentation or other materials of any nature relating to any matter within the scope of the business of the Corporation or concerning any of its dealings or affairs other than for the benefit of Corporation. I further agree that I shall not, after the termination of my employment, use or permit to be used any such notes, memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data, documentation or other materials. All of the foregoing shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Corporation and, immediately upon the termination of my employment, I shall deliver all of the foregoing, and all copies thereof, to the Corporation at its main office.

5.Ownership and Return of the Corporation’s Property. I agree that on or before my final date of employment with the Corporation I shall return to the Corporation all property of the Corporation in my possession, custody or control, including but not limited to the originals and copies of any information provided to or acquired by me in connection with the performance of my duties for the Corporation, such as files, correspondence, communications, memoranda, e-mails, slides, records, and all other documents, no matter how produced or reproduced, all computer equipment, communication devices (including but not limited to any mobile phone, BlackBerry or other portable digital assistant or device), computer programs and/or files, and all office keys and access cards. It is hereby acknowledged that all of said items are the sole and exclusive property of the Corporation.

a. Inventions Retained and Licensed. I have attached hereto, as Exhibit A, a list describing all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements, and trade secrets which were made by me prior to my employment with the Corporation (collectively referred to as “Prior Inventions”), which belong to me, which relate to the Corporation's proposed business, products or research and development, and which are not assigned to the Corporation hereunder; or, if no such list is attached, I represent that there are no such Prior Inventions. I agree that I will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, any Prior Invention owned by me or in which I have an interest into a Corporation product, process or machine without the Corporation's prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if, in the course of my employment with the Corporation, I incorporate into a Corporation product, process or machine a Prior Invention owned by me or in which I have an interest, the Corporation is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to make, have made, modify, use and sell such Prior Invention as part of or in connection with such product, process or machine.

b. Assignment of Inventions. I agree that I will promptly make full written disclosure to the Corporation, will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of the Corporation, and hereby assign to the Corporation, or its designee, all my right, title, and interest in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, improvements, designs, discoveries, ideas, trademarks or trade secrets, whether or not patentable or registrable under

copyright or similar laws, which I may solely or jointly conceive or develop or reduce to practice, or cause to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice, while in the course of my employment for the corporation during the period of time I am in the employ of the Corporation (collectively referred to as “Inventions”). I further acknowledge that all original works of authorship which are made by me (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the period of my employment with the Corporation and which are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire,” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act and as such are the sole property of the Corporation. I understand and agree that the decision whether or not to commercialize or market any Invention developed by me solely or jointly with others is within the Corporation's sole discretion and for the Corporation's sole benefit and that no royalty will be due to me as a result of the Corporation's efforts to commercialize or market any such Invention.

d. Patent and Copyright Registrations. I agree to assist the Corporation, or its designee, at the Corporation's expense, in every proper way to secure the Corporation's rights in the Inventions and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including, but not limited to, the disclosure to the Corporation of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other instruments which the Corporation shall deem necessary in order to apply for and obtain such rights and in order to assign and convey to the Corporation, its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole and exclusive rights, title and interest in and to such Inventions, and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto. I further agree that my obligation to execute or cause to be executed, when it is in my power to do so, any such instrument or papers shall continue after my employment ends for any reason and/or after the termination of this Agreement. If the Corporation is unable because of my mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason to secure my signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents or copyright registrations covering Inventions or original works of authorship assigned to the Corporation as above, then I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Corporation and its duly authorized officers and agents as my agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in my behalf and stead to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent or copyright registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.

e. Exception to Assignments. I understand that if I am an employee in Illinois, Kansas, North Carolina, Utah or Minnesota, I should refer to Exhibit B (incorporated herein for all purposes) for important limitations on the scope of the provisions of this Agreement concerning assignment of Inventions. I will advise the Corporation promptly in writing of any inventions that I believe meet the criteria in Exhibit B and that are not otherwise disclosed on Exhibit A.

a. In the event that I receive a subpoena, deposition notice, interview request, or other process or order to produce Confidential Information or any other property of the Corporation, I shall promptly: (a) notify the Corporation of the item, document, or information sought by such subpoena, deposition notice, interview request, or other process or order; (b) furnish the Corporation with a copy of said subpoena, deposition notice, interview request, or other process or order; and (c) provide reasonable cooperation with respect to any procedure that the Corporation may initiate to protect Confidential Information or other interests. If the Corporation objects to the subpoena, deposition notice, interview request, process, or order, I shall cooperate to ensure that there shall be no disclosure until the court or other applicable entity has ruled upon the objection, and then only in accordance with the ruling so made. If no such objection is made despite a reasonable opportunity to do so, I shall be entitled to comply with the subpoena, deposition, notice, interview request, or other process or order provided that I have fulfilled the above obligations.

b. I agree to cooperate fully with the Corporation, its affiliates, and their legal counsel in connection with any action, proceeding, or dispute arising out of matters with which I was directly or indirectly involved while serving as an employee of the Corporation, its predecessors, subsidiaries or affiliates. This cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, meeting with, and providing information to, the Corporation and its legal counsel, maintaining the confidentiality of any past or future privileged communications with the Corporation’s legal counsel (outside and in-house), and making myself available to testify truthfully by affidavit, in depositions, or in any other forum on behalf of the Corporation. The Corporation agrees to reimburse me for any reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs associated with my cooperation.

8.Injunctive Relief. I agree that any breach of this Agreement by me will cause irreparable damage to the Corporation and that, in the event of such breach, the Corporation shall have, in addition to any and all remedies of law, the right to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent the violation of my obligations hereunder, and without providing a bond to the extent permitted by the applicable rules of civil procedure.

9.Eligibility for Severance Pay. In the event that the Corporation terminates my employment without Cause (as defined below), the Corporation will offer me a separation agreement in a form provided by the Corporation that will include periodic severance payments in an amount equal to my salary in effect immediately prior to my separation, as well as the opportunity to continue participating in the Corporation’s medical, prescription and dental insurance plans (collectively, the “health benefits”) on the same terms available during my employment, for the duration of the Non-Competition Period. The separation agreement will also include a general release of claims and other standard provisions. The Corporation reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reduce the duration of the Non-Competition Period and the

duration of the corresponding periodic severance payments and continuation of health benefits. For purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall mean that the Corporation, in its sole discretion, has determined that I have: (a) violated the terms of this Agreement; (b) willfully violated the CVS Caremark Code of Conduct or any of the Corporation’s other policies; (c) engaged in dishonest or fraudulent conduct; or (d) willfully engaged in conduct that is detrimental to the Corporation’s reputation. I understand that if I resign my employment with the Corporation, or if I am terminated with Cause, I am not eligible for severance pay, but my obligations under this Agreement are still in full force and effect, including the post-employment restrictions I am agreeing to in Paragraphs 2 and 3 herein. I further understand that nothing in this Agreement shall diminish any right to severance pay that I may have under another written agreement or arrangement with the Corporation. Further, I understand and agree that my entitlement to any severance payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be offset, i.e., decreased, by any severance payment for which I may be eligible pursuant to any other agreement or arrangement with the Corporation.

12.Entire Agreement/No Reliance/No Modifications. This Agreement and any compensation, benefit or equity plan or agreement referred to herein set forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto and fully supersede any and all prior and/or supplemental understandings, whether written or oral, between the parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if I am a party to the CVS Caremark Corporation Change in Control Agreement (the “CIC Agreement”), then I understand that in the event of a Change in Control, as that term is defined in the CIC, Paragraph 2 of this Agreement shall be null and void. I agree and acknowledge that I have not relied on any representations, promises or agreements of any kind in connection with my decision to accept the terms of this Agreement, except for the representations, promises and agreements herein. Any modification to this Agreement must be made in writing and signed by me and the Corporation’s Chief Human Resources Officer or her authorized representative.

14.Severability. The parties hereby agree that each provision herein shall be treated as a separate and independent clause, and the unenforceability of any one clause shall in no way impair the enforceability of any of the other clauses herein. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions of this Agreement are for any reason held to be excessively broad as to scope, activity, duration, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable at law, the parties consent to such provision or provisions being modified or limited by the appropriate judicial body (where allowed by applicable law), so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law.

18.Governing Law; Venue; Headings. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state where I reside at the time this Agreement is provided to me. The exclusive venue for any legal action arising from this Agreement will be the federal and state courts within Rhode Island. I stipulate and consent to Rhode Island courts’ personal jurisdiction over me, and waive my right to object to a Rhode Island court’s jurisdiction. The headings of the sections contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.
