Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company, and
separate Indemnity Agreements, provide for the indemnification of each director
and officer of the Company in connection with any claim, action, suit or
proceeding brought or threatened by reason of his position with the Company. In
addition, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("Delaware Law")
permits the Company to indemnify its directors, officers and others against
judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and attorneys' fees resulting from
various types of legal actions or proceedings if the actions of the party being
indemnified meet the standards of conduct specified in the Delaware Law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of
the Company pursuant to the provisions referred to above or otherwise, the
Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes (1) to file, during any
period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to
this registration statement and to include any additional or changed material
information on the plan of distribution; (2) for determining liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, it will treat each post-effective amendment as a new
registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the
securities at that time to be the initial bon fide offering; and (3) it will
file a post- effective amendment to remove from registration any of the
securities which remain unsold at the end of the offering.
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference
in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 ("Act") may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the provisions referred to above or
otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (othe than the payment by the
Company of expenses incurred or paid in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
against the Company in connection with the securities being registered, the
Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

EXHIBIT 4.3
May 17, 1999
In accordance with the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") of
Chemed Corporation (the "Corporation"), you are hereby granted an option to
purchase ____________ shares of the capital stock, par value $1.00 per share, of
the Corporation upon the following terms and conditions.
(1) The purchase price shall be $___________ per share. Payment
thereof shall be made in cash or, subject to the next sentence, by delivery to
the Corporation of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which shall be
valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, or in a combination
of cash and such shares. Your right to pay the purchase price, in whole or in
part, by delivery to the Corporation of shares of capital stock of the
Corporation is expressly subject to temporary or permanent revocation or
withdrawal at any time and from time to time by action of the Board of Directors
of the Corporation without any requirement that advance notice of such
revocation or withdrawal be given to you.
(2) Subject to the provisions of paragraphs (3) and (6), this option is
exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time as follows:
____________ shares on or after November 17, 1999,
____________ shares on or after November 17, 2000,
____________ shares on or after November 17, 2001,
____________ shares on or after November 17, 2002.
Once an installment becomes exercisable, it may be exercised at any time in
whole or in part until the expiration or termination of this option. Neither
this option nor any right hereunder may be assigned or transferred by you,
except by will, the laws of descent and distribution, pursuant to a qualified
Domestic Relations order, or to a permitted transferee. It may be exercised
during your life only by you or by a permitted transferee. Within fifteen (15)
months after your death it may be exercised only by your estate, by a permitted
transferee, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the option by
bequest or inheritance or by reason of your death. At the time of each exercise
of this option, you or the person or persons exercising the option shall, if
requested by the Corporation, give assurances, satisfactory to counsel to the
Corporation, that the shares are being acquired for investment and not with a
view to resale or distribution thereof and assurances in respect of such other
matters as the Corporation may deem desirable to assure compliance with all
applicable legal requirements.
2
(3) This option, to the extent that it shall not have been exercised,
shall terminate when you cease to be an employee of the Corporation or a
Subsidiary, unless you cease to be an employee because of your resignation with
the consent of the Incentive Committee or because of your death, incapacity or
retirement under a retirement plan of the Corporation or a Subsidiary. If you
cease to be an employee because of such resignation, this option shall terminate
upon the expiration of three months after you cease to be an employee, except as
provided in the next sentence. If you cease to be an employee because of your
death, incapacity or retirement under a retirement plan of the Corporation or a
Subsidiary, or if you cease to be an employee because of your resignation with
the consent of the Incentive Committee and die during the three-month period
referred to in the preceding sentence, this option shall terminate fifteen (15)
months after you ceased to be an employee. Where this option is exercised more
than three months after termination of employment, as aforesaid, only those
installments which shall have become exercisable prior to the expiration of
three months after you ceased to be an employee, whether by death or otherwise,
may be exercised. A leave of absence for military or governmental service or for
other purposes shall not, if approved by the Incentive Committee be deemed a
termination of employment within the meaning of this paragraph (3), provided,
however, that this option may not be exercised during any such leave of absence.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (3) or any provision
of the Plan, this option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten
years from the date this option is granted.
(4) The number and class of shares or other securities covered by this
option and the price to be paid therefor shall be subject to adjustment as, and
under the circumstances, provided in Section 8 of the Plan.
(5) This option may be exercised only by serving written notice on the
Secretary or Treasurer of the Corporation. The Corporation shall deliver the
shares to you against payment; provided, however, no shares shall be issued or
transferred pursuant to this option unless and until all legal requirements
applicable to the issuance or transfer of such shares have, in the opinion of
the counsel to the Corporation, been complied with. Any Federal, state or local
withholding taxes applicable to any compensation you may realize by reason of
the exercise of the option or any subsequent disposition of the shares acquired
on exercise shall, upon request, be remitted to the Corporation or the
Subsidiary by which you are employed at the time of exercise or sale, as the
case may be. You shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to stock
actually delivered to you.
(6) If you are or become an employee of a Subsidiary, the Corporation's
obligations hereunder shall be contingent on the approval of the Plan and this
option by the Subsidiary and the Subsidiary's agreement that (a) the Corporation
may administer the Plan on its behalf, and (b) upon the exercise of the option,
it will purchase from the Corporation the shares subject to the exercise at
their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, such shares to be then
transferred by the Subsidiary to the holder of this option upon payment by the
holder of the purchase price to the Subsidiary. Where appropriate,
3
such approval and agreement of the Subsidiary shall be indicated by its
signature below. The obligations of the Subsidiary so undertaken may be waived
by the Corporation.
(7) The Plan is hereby incorporated by reference. Each term which is
defined in the Plan and used in this option shall have the same meaning in this
option as it has in the Plan. This option is granted subject to the Plan and
shall be construed to conform to the Plan.
Very truly yours,
CHEMED CORPORATION

and non-assessable shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to said
Registration Statement.
Sincerely,
/s/ Naomi C. Dallob
