Agreement.
Merger Agreement
On October 26, 2026, RadNet,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “RadNet,” “we,”
and “us”), and Radnet Management, Inc., a California corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company
(“Purchaser”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”)
with OnRad, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“OnRad”), Red Rover Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (the “Surviving Merger Sub”), Javelin Merger Sub, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Surviving Merger Sub (the “First Merger Sub,”
and together with Surviving Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”), and, solely for purposes of the specified provisions
therein, Housatonic IV CF, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, solely in its capacity as the securityholder representative (“Securityholder
Representative”).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (a) First Merger Sub will merge with and into OnRad, with OnRad surviving the
First Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Surviving Merger Sub (the “First Merger”), and (b) immediately
thereafter, OnRad will merge with and into Surviving Merger Sub, with Surviving Merger Sub surviving the Second Merger as a direct wholly
owned subsidiary of Purchaser (the “Second Merger,” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”).
At the closing of the Mergers
(the “Closing”), the holders (the “OnRad Holders”) of OnRad’s common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share (the “OnRad Common Stock”) (including any then outstanding shares of OnRad Common
Stock into which the holders of OnRad’s outstanding preferred stock and warrants have converted in accordance with the Merger Agreement,
but in all cases excluding Dissenting Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) and the holders of Vested Company Options (as defined
in the Merger Agreement) will receive an aggregate of (i) $350,000,000 in cash, subject to customary adjustments for cash, indebtedness,
net working capital and transaction expenses and subject to certain escrow holdbacks, and (ii) 5,000,000 shares (the “Closing
Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “RadNet Common Stock”).
In addition, the OnRad Holders
may also be entitled to an earn-out payment of up to $210,000,000 (the “Earn-Out Amount”) if OnRad achieves
a certain target Post-Closing Annual Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Merger Agreement) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2027.
The Earn-Out Amount may be paid in cash, shares of RadNet Common Stock (the “Earn-Out Shares”) or a combination
thereof subject to certain tax-related requirements.
2
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
the Company has agreed to file prospectus supplements to its automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-291945)
(the “Registration Statement”) to register the resale of the Closing Shares and, if any, the Earn-Out Shares,
within three (3) business days following the Closing and the Earn-Out Amount Determination Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement),
respectively.
The Mergers are expected
to close in early 2027, subject to customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, (i) the making or receipt of certain state
healthcare regulatory filings and approvals; (ii) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the Mergers; (iii) the delivery of the written
consent of OnRad’s stockholders approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder (the “Required
Stockholder Approval”); (iv) David M. Engert, who is currently serving as OnRad’s President and Chief Executive Officer,
remaining employed by OnRad through the Closing and not having revoked, rescinded or repudiated that certain Employment Agreement entered
into between OnRad and Mr. Engert on October 26, 2026, which will become effective at, and is contingent upon, the Closing; (v) the conveyance
of all ownership interests in each of OnRad’s contracted professional entities to a physician designated by Purchaser; and (vi)
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including by either
party if the Mergers have not been consummated by February 23, 2027 (which date automatically extends to June 1, 2027 if the only unsatisfied
closing condition is the receipt of the required governmental and regulatory filings and approvals), and by Purchaser if the Required
Stockholder Approval is not timely delivered. The parties previously filed under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976,
as amended, and the waiting period has expired.
The parties to the Merger
Agreement have made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also contains certain other
customary covenants and agreements.
The foregoing description
of the Merger Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit
2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein. The Merger Agreement and the foregoing description of
such agreement have been included to provide investors and stockholders with information regarding the terms of such agreement. The assertions
embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement are qualified by information in confidential disclosure
schedules delivered by OnRad to Purchaser in connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and
warranties in the Merger Agreement were made as of a specified date, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different
from what might be viewed as material to stockholders, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties to
the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement should not be relied on by any persons as
characterizations of the actual state of facts and circumstances of OnRad or the Company, as applicable, at the time they were made and
investors should consider the information in the Merger Agreement in conjunction with the entirety of the factual disclosure about the
Company in its public reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Information concerning the subject matter of the representations
and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the
Company’s public disclosures.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form
8-K, including the exhibits hereto, includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements, other than statements of historical
fact, included in this Current Report on Form 8-K that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or
anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Terminology such as “could,” “believe,”
“anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “continue,”
“predict,” “potential,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Mergers, the expected timing and completion of
the Mergers, the anticipated benefits of the Mergers, the potential Earn-Out Amount, the expected financial impact of the Mergers on the
Company and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements are based on current plans, estimates, expectations
and assumptions as of the time they are made, are not guarantees of future performance and should not be relied on as predictions of future
events, and there can be no assurance that such estimates, assumptions and expectations will prove to have been correct. These forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally outside the Company's control, and
other factors that could cause the Company’s actual results or financial condition to differ materially from those expressed or
implied by forward-looking statements, including (i) the risk that the conditions to the Closing, including required regulatory approvals,
are not satisfied or waived on a timely basis or at all, and the risk that the Mergers may not be completed on the anticipated terms,
in the anticipated timeframe or at all, (ii) the occurrence of any event that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement,
(iii) the risks and costs associated with the Mergers and integrating OnRad and achieving the anticipated benefits of the Mergers, (iv)
potential disruption to the businesses of the Company and OnRad, including the ability to retain and hire key personnel and to maintain
relationships with customers, suppliers and other business partners, as well as diversion of management’s time and attention from
ordinary course business operations to completion of the Mergers and integration matters, (v) potential litigation or regulatory action
relating to the Mergers, (vi) the effect of the Mergers on the Company’s indebtedness and leverage, credit ratings and liquidity,
(vii) legislative, regulatory and economic developments, including in the healthcare industry, (viii) the effect of the announcement,
pendency or completion of the Mergers on the market price of the RadNet Common Stock, and (ix) the other risks described under “Risk
Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. There may
be additional risks, uncertainties and factors that we do not currently view as material or that are not necessarily known. Please read
the Company’s filings with the SEC, which are available on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov, for a discussion of risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those in such forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. All forward-looking
statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Except as required by law,
the Company undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future results or otherwise.

Purchase Price; Effect on Shares
2.1
Effect of the Mergers on Capital Stock.
(a)
First Merger. At the First Effective Time, as a result of the First Merger and without any action on the part of any Party
or any holder of securities of any Party:
(i)
First Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of First Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the First Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the First Surviving
Corporation.
(ii)
Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective
Time (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any then outstanding shares of Company Common Stock into which Company Warrants and Company
Preferred Stock have converted in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, but in all cases excluding Dissenting Shares) shall be converted
into the right to receive, in each case subject to applicable withholding Taxes, (A) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal
to the Exchange Ratio (the “Per Share Stock Consideration”), (B) a cash amount equal to the sum of the applicable Per
Share Cash Consideration and the Per Share Adjustment Payment (if and to the extent any Per Share Adjustment Payment is due and payable
pursuant to the terms hereof) and (C) the Per Share Earn-Out Amount (if and to the extent any Per Share Earn-Out Amount is due and payable
pursuant to the terms hereof) (the amounts in the foregoing clauses (A) through (C), collectively, the “Per Share Merger Consideration”),
and shall thereupon cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist. Each such share of Company Common Stock formerly
represented by a certificate or that is non-certificated in the form of a book-entry share (in each case, other than Dissenting Shares)
shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration.
(iii)
Cancellation of Dissenting Shares; Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any
Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into the right to receive any portion of the applicable consideration payable or receivable pursuant
to Section 2.1(a)(ii) but shall, by virtue of the First Merger, cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and
shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value
of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL. For the avoidance of doubt, if, after the
First Effective Time, any such holder of Dissenting Shares fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses such right, such Dissenting
Shares will thereupon be treated as if they had been converted into, at the First Effective Time, the right to receive the Per Share Merger
Consideration, without interest, and the Second Surviving Company shall remain liable for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration
for such shares. The Company shall provide to Purchaser prompt notice of any demands for appraisal or purchase received by the Company,
withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments related to such demands served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL and received
by the Company. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Purchaser, or as otherwise required under Section 262
of the DGCL, voluntarily make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any claim or demand
in respect of any Dissenting Shares.
(b)
Second Merger. At the Second Effective Time, as a result of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of any
Party or any holder of securities of any Party, (i) each limited liability company interest of Surviving Merger Sub issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall remain outstanding, all of which limited liability company interests shall be held
by Purchaser and which shall not be affected by the Second Merger and (ii) each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of
the First Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease
to exist, and no consideration shall be paid with respect thereto, such that, immediately following the Second Merger, the Second Surviving
Company shall be a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser.

Treatment of Company Options.
(a)
Treatment of Vested Company Options. As of the First Effective Time, each Company Option (or portion thereof) that (i) is
outstanding as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time, (ii) is vested as of the First Effective Time (including any Company
Option the vesting of which automatically accelerates solely as a result of the First Effective Time) and (iii) is not an Out-of-the-Money
Company Option (each, a “Vested Company Option”) shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of
the Optionholder, be cancelled and shall only entitle such Optionholder to receive (without interest), with respect to each share of Company
Common Stock subject to such Vested Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time (A) an amount in cash equal to the Per
Share Cash Consideration, less the exercise price per share of such Vested Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time
(the “Closing Option Payment Amount”), (B) the Per Share Stock Consideration, (C) an amount in cash equal to the
Per Share Adjustment Payment (if and to the extent any Per Share Adjustment Payment is due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof),
and (D) the Per Share Earn-Out Amount (if and to the extent any Per Share Earn-Out Amount is due and payable pursuant to the terms
hereof), subject, in each case, to the requirements and contingencies set forth in this Agreement and applicable withholding, payroll,
employment, FICA, unemployment, and similar Taxes (which, for purposes of any such Taxes in respect of the Per Share Stock Consideration
and the portion of the Securityholder Representative Expense Amount allocable to a Vested Company Option, shall be satisfied by first
withholding an amount in cash equal to such Taxes from the Closing Option Payment Amount and then, to the extent not otherwise satisfied
from other sources and to the extent required in order to satisfy the full amount of such Taxes, withholding a number of shares of Parent
Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares) having a value based on the Parent
Stock Price equal to the remaining amount of such Taxes).
(b)
Treatment of Unvested Company Options and Out-of-the-Money Company Options. As of the First Effective Time, each Company
Option (or portion thereof) that is not a Vested Company Option shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the
holder, be cancelled without consideration in exchange therefor.
(c)
Board Resolutions and Other Actions. Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company Board shall take, or cause to be taken,
all necessary action under the Company Stock Plan, and shall obtain all such necessary consents, to (i) provide for and give effect to
the treatment of Company Options contemplated by Section 2.2, and (ii) terminate the Company Stock Plan, effective as of the First
Effective Time. Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall provide notice (in a form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser) to
each holder of Company Options outstanding as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time of the treatment of Company Options contemplated
by Section 2.2.

any action on the part of any Party or any other Person, all Company Warrants outstanding as of the Closing Date that are not otherwise

the amount of Net Working Capital as of the Measurement Time (“Closing Net Working Capital”), the amount of Cash as

in the definition of Indebtedness shall be treated as payable and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing) and the amount of
Transaction Costs as of the Measurement Time (“Closing Transaction Costs”), as well as the Closing Cash Consideration
resulting therefrom, in each case, including reasonably detailed calculations and supporting information of the components thereof and
in a manner consistent with the definitions and other applicable provisions hereof. The Purchase Price Adjustment Statement shall be prepared
in accordance with the definitions and other applicable provisions hereof. The Estimated Closing
Statement and the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement shall disregard any financing or refinancing
arrangements entered into at any time by Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.
(b)
After receipt from Purchaser of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement and for the forty-five (45) day period thereafter (the
“Objection Period”), the Securityholder Representative and his authorized representatives shall have the right to have
reasonable access during normal business hours to those employees, accountants and other personnel of Purchaser and the Second Surviving
Company who prepared the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement to discuss Purchaser’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital,
Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Closing Transaction Costs set forth in the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement and to inspect the
books and records and workpapers (including those prepared by advisors and other third parties, subject to the execution of any confidentiality
agreement or similar agreement required by such advisors or third parties) that are reasonably related to the preparation or assessment
of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement. If the Securityholder Representative fails to challenge Purchaser’s determination of
Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness or Closing Transaction Costs by the delivery of a written notice to Purchaser
(the “Objection Notice”) within the Objection Period, the calculations included in the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement
shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes of this Agreement.
(c)
If the Securityholder Representative delivers an Objection Notice to Purchaser upon or prior to the end of the Objection Period,
then Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall attempt to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days from the date of delivery
of the Objection Notice. Any items and amounts not specifically objected to by the Securityholder Representative within the Objection
Notice will be final and binding. If Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative cannot reach agreement within such thirty (30)-day
period (or such longer period as they may mutually agree in writing), then either Purchaser or the Securityholder Representative shall
have the unilateral right to request that the resolution of all unresolved items from the Objection Notice (the “Disputed Items”)
be referred to the Accounting Arbitrator on behalf of both Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative to resolve any remaining disagreements.
For purposes of this Section, the “Accounting Arbitrator” means RSM US LLP or such other independent accounting firm
of recognized national standing in the United States as may be mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative
in writing, in each case on terms that are agreeable to both Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative. If for any reason RSM US
LLP shall not be able to act as the Accounting Arbitrator and Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative cannot mutually agree on
another independent accounting firm of recognized national standing in the United States to serve in such capacity, then the Securityholder
Representative shall deliver to Purchaser a list of three independent accounting firms of recognized national standing in the United States
(other than RSM US LLP) and Purchaser shall select one of such three accounting firms to act as the Accounting Arbitrator.
10
(d)
Each of the Securityholder Representative and Purchaser shall, promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following
the formal engagement of the Accounting Arbitrator, provide the Accounting Arbitrator with a written presentation setting forth its respective
calculations of and assertions regarding the Disputed Items, which presentation cannot assert any amounts, estimates or values for such
Disputed Items that are greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by the Securityholder Representative (in the Objection Notice)
or Purchaser (in the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement) or less than the smallest value claimed by either such party. Each of the Securityholder
Representative and Purchaser will, and will cause their accountants to, cooperate with and assist the Accounting Arbitrator in its calculations
of the Disputed Items (and no other items) and in the review of any such calculations by the Accounting Arbitrator. The Accounting Arbitrator
shall be instructed to, as soon as reasonably possible (but in any event within thirty (30) days following its engagement), deliver to
Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative a written report setting forth its determination with respect to the Disputed Items (such
report, the “Final Adjustment Report”). Each of Purchaser and the Securityholder
Representative shall cooperate with and timely respond to any requests for information from such Accounting Arbitrator. The determination
of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be conclusive, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. The Parties agree that the failure of the
Accounting Arbitrator to strictly conform to any deadline or time period in this Agreement shall not render the determination of the Accounting
Arbitrator invalid and shall not be a basis for seeking to overturn any determination rendered by the Accounting Arbitrator. The Accounting
Arbitrator shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator, shall not conduct an independent investigation and shall base its
determination solely on (i) the written submissions of the parties delivered pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.6(d),
(ii) the definitions of Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Costs set forth in this Agreement, as well as the
Accounting Principles and (iii) the Disputed Items (as determined by the initial submissions actually delivered to the Accounting
Arbitrator pursuant to this Section 2.6(d)). Additionally, the Accounting Arbitrator may not assign a value to any Disputed Item
that is greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by the Securityholder Representative (in the Objection Notice) or Purchaser
(in the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement) or less than the smallest value claimed by either such party. The
costs of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be paid by the Securityholder Representative, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other
hand, in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the Disputed Items in the Post-Closing Adjustment determined
by the Accounting Arbitrator, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values
of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Accounting Arbitrator in the Final Adjustment Report.
(e)
Within four (4) Business Days after Final Net Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness and Final Transaction
Costs are agreed to or any remaining Disputed Items are ultimately resolved pursuant to Sections 2.6(b), 2.6(c) and 2.6(d):
(i)
if the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, then Purchaser shall pay to the Exchange Agent (for the benefit of the Securityholders)
an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified by
the Securityholder Representative and the Securityholder Representative and Purchaser shall submit a joint written instruction directing
the Escrow Agent to release from the Adjustment Escrow Account the Adjustment Escrow Amount to the Exchange Agent to be paid to each Securityholder
in accordance with their Per Share Adjustment Payment; provided that any payments to Employee Optionholders shall be made to the
Second Surviving Company’s payroll account (or such other applicable payroll-related account designated by Purchaser, if applicable)
for the benefit of, and further payment to, the Employee Optionholders on the next applicable regularly scheduled payroll date that is
at least five (5) Business Days following the date of such payment, subject to applicable withholding, payroll, employment, FICA, unemployment,
and similar Taxes;
11
(ii)
if the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, the Securityholder Representative and Purchaser shall submit a joint written
instruction directing the Escrow Agent to distribute to Purchaser an amount equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment
from the Adjustment Escrow Account by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified by Purchaser and if the absolute
value of the Post-Closing Adjustment exceeds the then available funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account, the Securityholders shall, prior
to the date on which the Post-Closing Adjustment payment is due, deposit additional funds in the amount of such deficiency (on a several
but not joint basis based on such Securityholder’s Pro Rata Share) in the Adjustment Escrow Account and the Securityholder Representative
and Purchaser shall submit a joint written instruction directing the Escrow Agent to distribute to Purchaser such additional amount from
the Adjustment Escrow Account by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified by Purchaser; provided, that to
the extent the Securityholders fail to fund any such deficiency in full, Purchaser shall be entitled, at its election and without limiting
any other remedy available to it, to set off the unfunded amount of such deficiency against the Earn-Out Amount, Indemnity Escrow Amount
or any other amounts otherwise payable to the Securityholders under this Agreement. If such absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment
is less than the Adjustment Escrow Amount, Securityholder Representative and Purchaser shall submit a joint written instruction directing
the Escrow Agent to release any remaining amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account (following any distribution to Purchaser) to the Exchange
Agent to be paid to each Securityholder in accordance with their Per Share Adjustment Payment; provided that any payments to Employee
Optionholders shall be made to the Second Surviving Company’s payroll account (or such other applicable payroll-related account
designated by Purchaser, if applicable) for the benefit of, and further payment to, the Employee Optionholders on the next applicable
regularly scheduled payroll date that is at least five (5) Business Days following the date of such payment, subject to applicable withholding,
payroll, employment, FICA, unemployment, and similar Taxes; and
(iii)
if the Post-Closing Adjustment is zero, the Securityholder Representative and Purchaser shall submit a joint written instruction
directing the Escrow Agent to release all amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account to the Exchange Agent to be paid to each Securityholder
in accordance with their Per Share Adjustment Payment; provided that any payments to Employee Optionholders shall be made to the
Second Surviving Company’s payroll account (or such other applicable payroll-related account designated by Purchaser, if applicable)
for the benefit of, and further payment to, the Employee Optionholders on the next applicable regularly scheduled payroll date that is
at least five (5) Business Days following the date of such payment, subject to applicable withholding, payroll, employment, FICA, unemployment,
and similar Taxes.
(f)
The terms “Final Net Working Capital”, “Final Closing Cash”, “Final Closing Indebtedness”
and “Final Transaction Costs” shall mean the definitive Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness
and Closing Transaction Costs, respectively, agreed to by Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative or the definitive Closing Net
Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Closing Transaction Costs, respectively, resulting from the determinations made
by the Accounting Arbitrator.
2.7
Earn-Out Payment.
(a)
Earn-Out Payment. As additional consideration for the Transactions, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid the amount calculated
in accordance with Section 2.7(b) (the “Earn-Out Amount”), for distribution to each Securityholder an amount
equal to their applicable Per Share Earn-Out Amount, as determined in accordance with this Section 2.7 and subject to applicable
withholding, payroll, employment, FICA, unemployment, and similar Taxes. Purchaser may pay (or cause to be paid) the Earn-Out Amount in
cash, shares of Parent Common Stock, or any combination of the foregoing, as determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion (for the avoidance
of doubt, subject to Section 5.14(d)(ii)). For purposes of calculating the number of shares of Parent Common Stock payable as part
of the Earn-Out Amount (including for purposes of calculating the aggregate dollar value of the Earn-Out Amount payable by Purchaser pursuant
to this Agreement), each such share shall be deemed to have a value equal to the Parent VWAP, subject to adjustment in accordance with
Section 2.8(c) with respect to any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock
split), recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment, or other similar transaction taking place between the
expiration of the Earn-Out Period and the applicable payment date, or any stock dividend thereon that is declared with a record date within
said period. In the event the Per Share Earn-Out Amount is paid in a combination of cash and shares of Parent Common Stock, any
applicable withholding, payroll, employment, FICA, unemployment, and similar Taxes in respect of the Parent Common Stock allocable to
a Vested Company Option, shall be satisfied by first withholding an amount in cash equal to such Taxes from the cash portion of the Per
Share Earn-Out Amount and then, to the extent not otherwise satisfied from other sources and to the extent required in order to satisfy
the full amount of such Taxes, withholding a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares)
having a value (as determined using the Earn-Out Payment Date VWAP) equal to the remaining amount of such Taxes.
12
(b)
Determination of Earn-Out Amount. The Earn-Out Amount shall equal the product of (i) fifteen (15) multiplied by (ii) the
lesser of (A) the amount (if any) by which the Post-Closing Annual Adjusted EBITDA exceeds $56,000,000 and (B) $14,000,000. The Post-Closing
Annual Adjusted EBITDA and the Earn-Out Amount shall be calculated in accordance with the definitions, adjustment and calculation principles
attached hereto as Annex C-1 (the “Earn-Out Definitions and Principles”) and the sample Adjusted EBITDA
calculation (based on Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2025) set forth in Annex D hereto (the “Sample Adjusted
EBITDA Calculation”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Post-Closing Annual Adjusted EBITDA is less than $56,000,000, the Earn-Out
Amount shall be zero.
(c)
Earn-Out Statement. Within ninety (90) calendar days following the end of the Earn-Out Period, Purchaser shall prepare and
deliver to the Securityholder Representative a statement (the “Earn-Out Statement”) setting forth in writing Purchaser’s
good faith calculation of (i) the Post-Closing Annual Adjusted EBITDA and (ii) the Earn-Out Amount (if any) resulting therefrom,
prepared in accordance with the Earn-Out Definitions and Principles. If Purchaser’s calculation of the Earn-Out Amount as set forth
in the Earn-Out Statement exceeds zero, Purchaser shall, as promptly as practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days
of delivery of the Earn-Out Statement), pay, or cause to be paid, subject to any claim for set off rights against the Earn-Out Amount
pursuant to this Agreement, the cash and stock amounts comprising such amount in accordance with Section 2.7(f).
(d)
Resolution of Earn-Out Dispute.
(i)
After receipt from Purchaser of the Earn-Out Statement, the Securityholder Representative and its authorized representatives shall
have the right to have reasonable access upon reasonable notice during normal business hours to the relevant personnel and accountants
of Purchaser and the Second Surviving Company to review and discuss Purchaser’s calculation of the Earn-Out Amount set forth in
the Earn-Out Statement and to inspect the books, records, workpapers, and supporting documentation (including those prepared by advisors
or third parties, subject to the execution of any confidentiality agreement or similar agreement required by such advisors or third parties)
that are reasonably related to the preparation or assessment of the Earn-Out Statement. If the Securityholder Representative fails to
challenge Purchaser’s determination of the Earn-Out Amount by delivering a written notice to Purchaser (the “Earn-Out Objection
Notice”) within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Securityholder Representative of the Earn-Out Statement (the “Earn-Out
Objection Period”), the calculations included in the Earn-Out Statement with respect to the Earn-Out Amount shall be final,
conclusive, and binding for all purposes of this Agreement. The Earn-Out Objection Notice shall include the amount in dispute and the
basis for the dispute for each objection, together with reasonably necessary supporting documentation. The Securityholder Representative
shall provide Purchaser and its representatives reasonable access to the personnel and accountants who prepared the Earn-Out Objection
Notice as well as any books, records, workpapers, and supporting documentation that are reasonably related to the preparation or assessment
of the Earn-Out Objection Notice (subject to the execution of any confidentiality agreement or similar agreement required by advisors
or third parties).
(ii)
If the Securityholder Representative delivers an Earn-Out Objection Notice to Purchaser upon or prior to the end of the Earn-Out
Objection Period, then Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall attempt to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days from
the date of delivery of such Earn-Out Objection Notice (or such longer period as they may mutually agree in writing). If Purchaser and
the Securityholder Representative resolve all disputes, the mutually agreed component(s) of the Earn-Out Amount shall be final, conclusive,
and binding for all purposes of this Agreement.
(iii)
If Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative are unable to resolve all disputed items within the agreed period, either Purchaser
or the Securityholder Representative shall have the unilateral right to request that the resolution of all unresolved items from the Earn-Out
Objection Notice, including related or dependent items (the “Disputed Earn-Out Items”) be referred to the Accounting
Arbitrator on behalf of both Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative to resolve any remaining disagreements.
13
(iv)
Each of the Securityholder Representative and Purchaser shall, promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following
the formal engagement of the Accounting Arbitrator, provide the Accounting Arbitrator (copying the other upon submission) with a single
written presentation setting forth its respective calculations of and assertions regarding the applicable Disputed Earn-Out Items, which
presentation cannot assert any amounts, estimates, or values for such Disputed Earn-Out Items that are greater than the greatest value
for such item claimed by the Securityholder Representative (in the applicable Earn-Out Objection Notice) or Purchaser (in the Earn-Out
Statement) or less than the smallest value claimed by either such Party. The Accounting Arbitrator shall make its determination based
solely on (i) the written submissions of the Parties delivered pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.7(d)(iv),
(ii) the definitions of Post-Closing Annual Adjusted EBITDA and all other applicable defined terms in this Agreement, and (iii) the
applicable Disputed Earn-Out Items (as determined by the initial submissions actually delivered to the Accounting Arbitrator). The Accounting
Arbitrator shall not assign a value to any Disputed Earn-Out Item that is greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by the
Securityholder Representative or Purchaser or less than the smallest value claimed by either such Party.
(v)
The Accounting Arbitrator shall deliver a written report setting forth its determination of the applicable Disputed Earn-Out Items
within thirty (30) days of engagement or as soon as practicable thereafter. The Accounting Arbitrator’s determination shall be conclusive,
binding, and non-appealable on all Parties. The costs of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be paid by the Securityholder Representative,
on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the final component(s) of the Earn-Out
Amount determined by the Accounting Arbitrator, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the
relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Accounting Arbitrator together with the determination
of such component(s) of the Earn-Out Amount.
(vi)
Any adjustments to any component(s) of the Earn-Out Amount determined pursuant to this Section 2.7, subject to any
claim for set off rights against the Earn-Out Amount pursuant to this Agreement, shall be paid by Purchaser in accordance with Section
2.7(f), no later than thirteen (13) Trading Days following the final determination of the Earn-Out Amount. Any date on which an Earn-Out
Amount is determined to be due pursuant to this Section 2.7(d)(vi) or the last sentence of Section 2.7(c), an “Earn-Out
Amount Determination Date”.
(e)
Restrictive Covenants.
(i)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not, and Purchaser shall cause the Second Surviving
Company and its and their respective Affiliates not to, take any action, or omit to take any action, the primary purpose or primary intent
of which is to circumvent, reduce, delay, or avoid the payment to the Securityholders of any payments contemplated by this Section 2.7.
(ii)
Without limitation to, and in furtherance of, Section 2.7(e)(i), during the Earn-Out Period, Purchaser shall, and Purchaser
shall cause the Second Surviving Company and its and their respective Affiliates to: (A) maintain the Second Surviving Company and
its Subsidiaries as separate legal entities and maintain books and records of the Second Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries in a manner
reasonably calculated to facilitate the calculation of the Post-Closing Annual Adjusted EBITDA in accordance with the Earn-Out Definitions
and Principles and the Sample Adjusted EBITDA Calculation, and solely to the extent not inconsistent with the Earn-Out Definitions and
Principles and the Sample Adjusted EBITDA Calculation, the Accounting Principles; and (B) operate the Second Surviving Company, its Subsidiaries
and their respective businesses as a separate business unit of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, the day-to-day ordinary course of business
operations of which shall be managed and overseen by the Key Employee (subject to the general oversight of Purchaser’s Chief Executive
Officer and the principles set forth in Annex C-2).
(f)

held by such holders by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts specified by the Exchange Agent pursuant to instructions

At the Closing, the Parties shall appoint Equiniti Trust Company, LLC to act as Exchange
Agent hereunder (the “Exchange Agent”) pursuant to the Exchange Agent Agreement. All fees, costs and expenses
of the Exchange Agent will be paid and borne equally by Purchaser and the Company.
(b)
At or prior to the First Effective Time, (A) Purchaser shall deposit, or shall cause to be

Per Share Stock Consideration payable at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(xi) and Section
5.13(h) (the cash and shares described in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), collectively, the “Exchange Fund”).
The following provisions shall be applicable to (i) the payment of the cash consideration and the delivery of the Per Share Stock Consideration

entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii), (ii) the payment of the cash consideration to
which each Non-Employee Optionholder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.2, and (iii) the delivery of the Per Share Stock

by the Exchange Agent, such shares of Company Common Stock shall
be deemed to be surrendered and canceled against delivery of the Per Share Merger Consideration as

(iii)
No interest shall accrue or be paid on the Per Share Merger Consideration or
any other consideration payable or issuable upon the delivery of the Letter of Transmittal. None of Purchaser, Parent, the Second

After the Closing, any Exchange Fund
Participant will be entitled to look only to the Second Surviving Company for payment of their respective

shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay or deliver the applicable amounts and shares to be
paid or delivered, each as applicable, to such holders for each such holder who has properly completed, duly executed and delivered a
Letter of Transmittal (and, for any holder who delivers a Letter of Transmittal thereafter, within three (3) Business Days following such

The shares of Parent Common Stock issued to the Exchange Agent at the Closing shall be held by the Exchange Agent as nominee for
the benefit of the applicable Exchange Fund Participants and shall not be delivered to any Exchange Fund Participant prior to the filing
of the Closing Prospectus Supplement (other than in accordance with Section 5.13(h)). Immediately following the filing of the Closing
Prospectus Supplement on the date thereof, Parent shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent written instructions
directing the Exchange Agent to deliver, in book-entry form, to each Exchange Fund Participant who has properly completed, duly executed
and delivered a Letter of Transmittal, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock set forth opposite such Exchange Fund Participant’s
name on the Payment Schedule (which instructions may be included in the instruction letter delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(xi),
in which case Parent shall confirm to the Exchange Agent in writing that the Closing Prospectus Supplement has been filed), and Purchaser
shall cause the Exchange Agent to make such delivery of shares of Parent Common Stock to each such Exchange Fund Participant as promptly
as practicable (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days, or, in the case of holders that deliver Letters of Transmittal within
three (3) months following the Closing, seven (7) Business Days) following the later of the filing of the Closing Prospectus Supplement
and the proper delivery of a fully executed Letter of Transmittal in accordance with Section 2.8(b), or otherwise in accordance

be delayed pending the delivery of the shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2.8(b)(vi)(A).
16
(B)
The shares of Parent Common Stock issued to the Exchange Agent at each Earn-Out Amount Determination Date shall be held by the
Exchange Agent as nominee for the benefit of the applicable Exchange Fund Participants and shall not be delivered to any Exchange Fund
Participant prior to the filing of the applicable Earn-Out Prospectus Supplement (other than in accordance with Section 5.13(h)).
Immediately following the filing of the applicable Earn-Out Prospectus Supplement on the date thereof, Parent shall deliver, or cause
to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent written instructions directing the Exchange Agent to deliver, in book-entry form, to each Exchange
Fund Participant who has properly completed, duly executed and delivered a Letter of Transmittal, the number of shares of Parent Common
Stock set forth opposite such Exchange Fund Participant’s name as set forth in writing by the Securityholder Representative, and
Purchaser shall cause the Exchange Agent to make such delivery of shares of Parent Common Stock to each such Exchange Fund Participant
as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days, or in the case of holders that deliver Letters of Transmittal
within three (3) months following the Closing, seven (7) Business Days) following the later of the filing of the Closing Prospectus Supplement
and the proper delivery of a fully executed Letter of Transmittal in accordance with Section 2.8(b), or otherwise in accordance

Determination Date shall not be delayed pending the delivery of the shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2.8(b)(vi)(B).
(c)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:
(i)
If, from the date hereof until the latest date on which any payment is due to any Securityholder
pursuant to this Agreement, the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or
a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, split-up, combination,
exchange of shares, readjustment, or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend thereon shall be declared with a record date within
said period, then the number of shares of Parent Common Stock payable as consideration and any other similarly dependent items, as the
case may be, shall be appropriately adjusted to provide Purchaser and the Stockholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this
Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 2.8(c)(i) shall be construed to permit any Party to take any action
that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.
(ii)
No certificates or scrip representing less than one share of Parent Common Stock shall be
issued pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Stockholder who would otherwise have
been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all Company securities held by such holder)
shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fractional amount multiplied by (i) with respect to
any amounts payable at the Closing or pursuant to Section 2.6(e), the Parent Stock
Price and (ii) with respect to any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.7(f), the Parent VWAP, in each case of clauses (i) and

to any amounts or other consideration required to be paid or issued pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any
Party, any Affiliate of a Party (including the Second Surviving Company and any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing), the Securityholders,
the Exchange Agent, the Escrow Agent and any of their respective agents and representatives (each, a “Withholding Agent”),
as the case may be, shall be entitled to deduct or withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any such amount or other consideration,
the amounts required to be deducted or withheld under the Code, or any provision of any other applicable Laws, and (2) to the extent that

payment under this Agreement or any other applicable Transaction Document and any applicable Affiliate or Withholding Agent (collectively,
the “Payor”) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in good faith with the Person entitled to receive
such payment or, in the case of any payment required to be paid to any Securityholders pursuant to this Agreement, the Securityholder
Representative (in each case, the “Payee”) to eliminate or minimize such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted
under applicable Law; (b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to making any such deduction or withholding (unless such notice is not
reasonably practicable under the circumstances, in which case, the notice shall be provided as soon as reasonably practicable), the applicable
Payor shall provide the Payee with written notice of the intended deduction or withholding, including the legal basis therefor and a calculation
thereof; and (c) as promptly as reasonably practicable after the amount deducted or withheld by the applicable Payor is remitted to a
Governmental Entity, such applicable Payor shall provide the Payee with reasonable evidence of such remittance.

to employees, contractors, consultants, and advisors, in each case, with a valid reason to know the same and subject to a written confidentiality
agreement, and no circumstance or condition exists that would reasonably be expected to result in any of the foregoing. The Company and

(e)
Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has implemented reasonable administrative, physical and technical safeguards sufficient
to protect the Personal Information created, received, maintained and transmitted or otherwise processed by the Company and its Subsidiaries,
as applicable, and such safeguards are sufficient for the size and scope of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the risks posed to such
Personal Information. None of the Company and its Subsidiaries have breached or violated the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability

requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted. Each Merger
Sub is a newly formed entity and does not have any operations or liabilities other than incident to its formation, this Agreement and
the Mergers. Each Merger Sub was formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the Mergers. All of the outstanding equity interests of
First Merger Sub are owned directly by Surviving Merger Sub, and all of the outstanding equity interests of Surviving Merger Sub are owned
directly by Purchaser. There are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments to which any Merger Sub
is a party relating to the issued or unissued equity interests in such Merger Sub or obligating such Merger Sub to grant, issue or sell
any equity interests in such Merger Sub, by sale or otherwise. There are no obligations, contingent or otherwise, of any Merger Sub to
repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any equity interests of such Merger Sub.

it is a party, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the Transactions. This Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents have been duly authorized and executed by Purchaser, Parent and each Merger Sub and are valid and binding agreements of Purchaser,
Parent and each Merger Sub, enforceable against Purchaser, Parent and Merger Subs in accordance with their terms, except as limited by
the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. No vote or consent of the holders of any class or series of share capital or other equity interest
of Purchaser or Parent is necessary to approve this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions (including, for the
avoidance of doubt, the Mergers and the issuance of the shares of Parent Common Stock contemplated by this Agreement).
4.3
Governmental Filings; No Conflicts.
(a)
Other than (i) the filings and/or notices under the HSR Act and (ii) the filing of the Certificates of Merger, no notices, reports,
filings or other approvals are required to be made or effected by Purchaser, Parent or Merger Subs with, nor are any consents, registrations,
approvals, permits or authorizations required to be obtained by Purchaser, Parent or Merger Subs from, any Governmental Entity, in connection
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser, Parent and Merger Subs or the performance of their obligations hereunder.
(b)
The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser, Parent and Merger Subs, the performance of their respective obligations
hereunder and the consummation of the Transactions will not constitute or result in (A) a breach or violation of, or a default under,
the Organizational Documents of Purchaser, Parent or Merger Subs, as applicable; (B) a breach or violation of, or a default under, or
the acceleration of any obligations or the creation of a Lien on the assets of Purchaser, Parent or Merger Subs (with or without notice,

performance of this Agreement and consummation of the Transactions) compliance with the matters referred to in Section 4.3(a),
conflict with, breach or violate any Law applicable to Purchaser, Parent or Merger Subs or by which their respective properties are bound
or affected, except, in the case of clauses (B) or (C) above, for any breach, violation, default, acceleration, creation or change that,
individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be likely to prevent, materially delay or materially impair the consummation of
the Transactions.
4.4
SEC Documents.

Parent has timely filed with or furnished to the SEC all reports, schedules, forms, statements, prospectuses, registration statements
and other documents required to be filed with or furnished to the SEC by Parent since January 1, 2023 (collectively, together with any
exhibits and schedules thereto and other information incorporated therein, the “Parent SEC Documents”).
(b)
As of its filing date (or, if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the date of this Agreement, as of the date of such amended
or superseding filing), (i) the Parent SEC Documents filed or furnished prior to the date of this Agreement complied in all material respects
with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as the case may be, and (ii) each
Parent SEC Document filed or furnished prior to the date of this Agreement did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. No Subsidiary of Parent is required to file or furnish any report, schedule, form, statement, prospectus, registration
statement or other document with the SEC.
45
(c)
Each Parent SEC Document that is a registration statement, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, filed pursuant to the Securities
Act, as of the date such registration statement or amendment became effective, and as of the date of such amendment or supplement, did
not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading in any material respect. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no outstanding or unresolved
comments received from the SEC staff with respect to any of the Parent SEC Documents, and, to the knowledge of Purchaser or Parent, none
of the Parent SEC Documents are subject to ongoing SEC review. Parent is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable listing

to so comply.

Financial Statements”) (i) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved
except as may be noted therein; and (ii) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Parent and its Subsidiaries
on a consolidated basis as at the dates thereof and the results of operations and comprehensive operations, changes in stockholders’
equity and cash flows of Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of the interim
financial statements of Parent, to the absence of notes and normal year-end audit adjustments).

it to consummate the Transactions and satisfy all of its obligations under this Agreement when required to do so pursuant to the terms
hereof, including payment of all amounts due by Purchaser on and after the Closing pursuant to Article II.
4.8
Securities Matters. Purchaser is acquiring, by way of the Mergers, the Equity Interests of the Second Surviving Company
for its own account and without a view to the public distribution or sale of the shares or any interest in such shares. Purchaser has
sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment
in the Equity Interests of the Second Surviving Company, and Purchaser is capable of bearing the economic risks of such investment, including
a complete loss of its investment in the Equity Interests of the Second Surviving Company. Purchaser understands and agrees that it may
not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of the Equity Interests of the Second Surviving Company other than pursuant to
a registered offering in compliance with, or in a transaction exempt from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable
state and foreign securities laws.

shares of Parent Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and free and clear of Liens, and issued in compliance
with all applicable Laws concerning the issuance of securities. Parent has, and at the Closing will have, sufficient authorized but unissued
shares of capital stock to effect the issuance of such shares of Parent Common Stock. None of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued
pursuant to this Agreement will, upon issuance, be subject to any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, or other rights to purchase
the Parent Common Stock (whether in favor of Parent or any other Person) pursuant to any Contract of Parent.

Division of the DOJ a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions.

that it has made its own inquiry and investigation into the Company and its Subsidiaries as it has deemed appropriate in connection with
the Transactions and has had the opportunity to request and receive information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries. Each of Purchaser,
Parent, Surviving Merger Sub and First Merger Sub further acknowledges and agrees that (a) the only representations and warranties made
by the Company or any other Person on its behalf are the representations and warranties made in Article III of this Agreement;
and (b) except as set forth in Article III, any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document,
the Company and any other Person do not make any other representation or warranty of any kind or nature whatsoever, oral or written, express

on any of their behalf, (b) Purchaser’s right to rely upon the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Article
III, any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or (c) any rights or remedies otherwise
expressly provided under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4.12 shall be construed to preclude

delivered pursuant hereto.

Purchaser, Parent or any of their Affiliates (including, on or after the Closing Date, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Managed
Entities) be required to (i) negotiate, commit to or effect, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, lease, license,

this Section 5.3(c) shall restrict Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates from entering into, negotiating, consummating any
other transaction (including any merger, acquisition or disposition) in the ordinary course of its business or otherwise, whether or not
such transaction requires the filing of a notification under the HSR Act or otherwise gives rise to a filing or approval requirement under
any other Antitrust Law.

pursuant to Article VII, upon reasonable advance notice, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and the Managed
Entities to, afford Purchaser and its officers, employees, financing sources, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives
reasonable access, during normal business hours and, to the extent reasonably requested, at other mutually agreeable times, to its properties,
personnel (including senior management), books, contracts, records and other information of the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Managed
Entities as Purchaser may reasonably request for purposes of consummating the Transactions, preparing required regulatory filings, satisfying
the conditions to Closing, or conducting integration planning. The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and the Managed
Entities to, promptly furnish to Purchaser such financial, operational and other information concerning its businesses, assets, liabilities,
operations and personnel as Purchaser may reasonably request, other than any such matters that relate

financial or strategic alternatives thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company, the Company’s
Subsidiaries and the Managed Entities may withhold, redact, or condition access to any information if any of the foregoing determine in
their sole reasonable discretion that providing such access could (i) waive or adversely affect any attorney-client privilege, work product
protection, or other legal privilege or immunity, (ii) result in the disclosure of any Trade Secrets or other confidential or competitively
sensitive information of the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries, the Managed Entities or any of their respective Affiliates, or
(iii) violate applicable Law or any contractual, fiduciary or confidentiality obligation; provided, that the Company shall,
and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries and the Managed Entities to, use commercially reasonable efforts to make alternative disclosure
arrangements that would not jeopardize any applicable legal privilege or Trade Secret protection or contravene any Laws, contracts or
obligation of confidentiality. Purchaser and its representatives shall conduct any activities pursuant to this Section 5.4(a) in
such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the respective business or operations of the Company and/or the Company’s Subsidiaries
and/or the Managed Entities. All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 5.4(a) shall be directed to the individual(s)
designated in writing by the Company, provided that such designation shall not unreasonably delay or impede Purchaser’s exercise
of its rights under this Section 5.4(a). All such information provided pursuant to this Section 5.4(a) shall be governed
by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.
54
(b)
Post-Closing Access. Subject to applicable Law, from and after the Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Second Surviving Company

Entities to (i) retain its books, ledgers, files, reports, plans, operating records and other material documents that are in existence
at the Closing and are required to be retained pursuant to applicable document retention policies or applicable Law (collectively, the
“Records”) for a period of seven years from the Closing Date, and (ii) to the extent reasonably necessary for
the Stockholders to comply with applicable legal, tax or regulatory obligations or to pursue or defend claims relating to their ownership
of Company Capital Stock or Equity Interests in the Managed Entities or their service as current or former directors or officers of the
Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or the Managed Entities, and not for any competitive or other commercial purpose, provide the
Stockholders or their representatives, at the Stockholders’ sole cost and expense, with reasonable access during normal business
hours, upon reasonable advance written notice, and under the supervision of Purchaser’s or the Second Surviving Company’s
personnel, to inspect (and, at the Stockholders’ expense, copy) the Records with respect to periods or occurrences prior to the
Closing Date, provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of Purchaser, the Second
Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser and the
Second Surviving Company may withhold, redact, or condition access to any Records or other information if Purchaser or the Second Surviving
Company, as applicable, determine in its sole reasonable discretion that providing such access could (i) waive or adversely affect any
attorney-client privilege, work product protection, or other legal privilege or immunity, (ii) result in the disclosure of any Trade Secrets
or other confidential or competitively sensitive information of Purchaser, the Second Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates,
or (iii) violate applicable Law or any contractual, fiduciary or confidentiality obligation; provided, that Purchaser and
the Second Surviving Company shall, and shall cause each of the Managed Entities to, use commercially reasonable efforts to make alternative
disclosure arrangements that would not jeopardize any applicable legal privilege or Trade Secret protection or contravene any Laws, contracts
or obligation of confidentiality.
5.5

and Purchaser. Following the issuance of the initial press release, the Parties shall consult with each other in good faith before issuing
any press release or making any public announcement or filing with any third party or Governmental Entity relating to this Agreement or
the Transactions. No Party shall issue any such press release, public announcement or filing without the prior written consent of the
Securityholder Representative, the Company and Purchaser (in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided,
however, that (a) any Party may make disclosures as required by Law (including any applicable stock exchange rules); provided that,
to the extent legally permissible, such Party shall provide the other Parties with prior written notice of such required disclosure, (b)
the Company and its Subsidiaries may make internal communications to their respective employees and communications to customers, suppliers
and other business relationships to the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate the consummation of the Transactions or the operation
of the business following the Closing, (c) Parent may make a press release, public announcement or disclosure regarding the Transactions
to the extent the contents of such release or announcement have previously been released publicly by Parent or Purchaser. For the avoidance
of doubt, from and after the Closing there shall be no restriction on Parent making public statements regarding the operation of the business
of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and no Securityholder that is (or affiliated with) a financial investor shall be prohibited from
providing general information limited to the occurrence of the Transaction in connection with fundraising, marketing, informational or
reporting activities (including current or prospective limited partners).
55
5.6
Employee Matters.
(a)
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.6, Purchaser and the Company agree that during the period commencing
on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary thereof (or such earlier date on which the applicable employee’s employment
terminates), each employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who continues to be employed by Purchaser or its Affiliates (including
the Second Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Managed Entities) after the Closing (a “Continuing Employee”)
will continue to be provided with, except as otherwise determined by the Chief Executive Officer of the Second Surviving Company (to the
extent in accordance with Annex C-2) (i) base salary or base wage that is no less favorable than the base salary or base wage provided
by the Company and its Subsidiaries or the Managed Entities to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the First Effective
Time, (ii) target annual cash bonus opportunities that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the target annual cash bonus opportunities
provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries or Managed Entities to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the First Effective
Time (provided that cash target incentive opportunities of equivalent value will be provided in lieu of equity target incentive opportunities
unless Purchaser otherwise approves in writing), and (iii) other employee and welfare benefits (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt,
equity incentives) that are substantially similar in the aggregate to those provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries or the Managed
Entities to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the First Effective Time.
(b)
Purchaser will cause each employee Benefit Plan or program or service-based policy of Purchaser or its Affiliates (including the
Company and its Subsidiaries) in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate to take into account, for purposes of eligibility,
vesting and benefit accrual (other than benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan and equity vesting) and levels of benefits
thereunder, the pre-Closing service of such employees with the Company and its Subsidiaries (including any predecessors thereto) as if
such service had been performed with Purchaser or its Affiliates; provided, that such crediting of service (i) will only be made
to the extent such Continuing Employee’s pre-Closing service was taken into account under the equivalent Benefit Plan, program,
or service-based policy maintained by the Company pre-Closing; and (ii) does not result in any duplication of benefits.
(c)
Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each employee benefit plan or program that is a group health plan of
Purchaser or its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) in which a Continuing Employee may be eligible to participate
after the Closing (a “New Plan”), to (i) waive, or cause the waiver of, all limitations as to preexisting conditions,
exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements, other than limitations or waiting periods that
are already in effect with respect to such employee and that have not been satisfied as of the Closing under the corresponding Benefit
Plan immediately prior to the Closing; and (ii) provide such employee with credit for any co-payments, deductibles paid and out-of-pocket
expenses incurred, during the portion of the plan year under a corresponding provision of the corresponding Benefit Plan ending on the
date on which participation in the New Plan begins in satisfying any applicable coinsurance, deductible or-out of-pocket requirements
under any such New Plan.
(d)
Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to (i) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any employee of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, any beneficiary or dependent thereof, any collective bargaining representative thereof, or any other Person
that is not a party to this Agreement, (ii) be deemed to constitute the adoption, amendment or modification of any employee benefit
plan, including the Benefit Plans, or limit the right of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any employee
benefit plan, including the Benefit Plans, or (iii) limit the right of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to terminate any employee
at any time and for any reason.
56
5.7
Indemnification; Tail Insurance.
(a)
Purchaser agrees that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities, including advancement of expenses, for acts
or omissions or other matter occurring at or prior to the First Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former director
and officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (in each case, when acting in such capacity), determined as of the Closing (the
“Indemnitees”) as provided in the Organizational Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any indemnification
contract between such directors or officers and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable (in each case, as in effect on,
and, in the case of any indemnification contracts, to the extent made available to Purchaser prior to, the date of this Agreement) shall
survive the Mergers and shall continue in full force and effect. For a period of six (6) years from the First Effective Time, the Second
Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Second Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to, maintain
in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of its (or its predecessor’s)
Organizational Documents as in effect immediately prior to the First Effective Time with respect to acts or omissions or other matters
occurring prior to the First Effective Time and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would
adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnitees; provided that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claim made for
indemnification within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim.
(b)
At the Closing Date, the Second Surviving Company shall obtain, and the Second Surviving Company shall bear all costs of and pay
the premium for, “tail” insurance extensions of (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries’ existing directors’
and officers’ insurance policies and (ii) the Company’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively,
“D&O Insurance”), in each case with an extended claims reporting period or discovery period of at least six years
from and after the Closing from one or more insurance carriers with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s insurance
carrier as of the date of this Agreement with respect to the D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability
that are at least as favorable to the insureds as the Company’s existing policies with respect to actual or alleged acts or omissions
of an insured that are first committed or attempted at or prior to the Closing (including in connection with the Transactions); provided
that the Second Surviving Company shall not be required to spend in respect of such D&O Insurance in excess of 300% of the latest
annual premium of the Company. Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Second Surviving Company to, maintain the D&O Insurance in full
force and effect from and after the Closing Date.
(c)
If the Second Surviving Company or any of its successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person
and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all
of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns
of the Second Surviving Company shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.7.
(d)
The foregoing provisions of this Section 5.7 are intended to be for the benefit of, and from and after the Closing shall
be enforceable by, each Indemnitee, each of which shall be a third party beneficiary of this Section 5.7 and Section 5.9
in connection herewith.
(e)
On or after the Closing Date, the Second Surviving Company shall obtain “tail” insurance extensions of the Company
and its Subsidiaries’ medical malpractice insurance policies set forth in Schedule 5.7(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter
(the “MedMal Tail”), at the direction of Purchaser and with the reasonable cooperation of the Company.
57
5.8
Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Company, on the one hand, and Purchaser and Parent,
on the other hand, shall bear their respective expenses, costs and fees (including attorneys’, auditors’ and financing fees,
if any) in connection with the Transactions, including the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and compliance herewith,
whether or not the Transactions are effected. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall pay directly
or promptly reimburse the Company for amounts paid by or on behalf of the Company in respect of (i) fees in respect of filings made
under the HSR Act, and (ii) the costs and expenses relating to the preparation and filing of the Prospectus Supplements, (b) the Company
shall be responsible for, and shall pay directly or promptly reimburse Purchaser for amounts paid by or on behalf of Purchaser in respect
of (i) the costs and expenses otherwise payable by Purchaser in connection with binding and issuing the R&W Insurance Policy at the
Closing (the “R&W Costs”) and (ii) the costs and expenses of the D&O Insurance, and (c) Purchaser and the Company
shall each be responsible for, and shall pay directly or promptly reimburse the other Party for amounts paid by or on behalf of such other
Party in respect of, fifty percent (50%) of the fees of the Exchange Agent and Escrow Agent.
5.9
Further Assurances. Subject to, and not in limitation of, Section 5.3, until the Closing or earlier termination of
this Agreement, each of the Parties shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such documents and other instruments
and take, or cause to be taken, such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and give
effect to the Transactions.
5.10
R&W Insurance Policy. The R&W Insurance Policy shall expressly waive any claims of subrogation (except in the case
of losses resulting from Fraud with respect to the making of the representations and warranties contained in Article III of this
Agreement (as qualified by the Company Disclosure Letter)) against the Securityholders, the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective employees or Affiliates. None of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates shall terminate or amend, waive, modify or otherwise revise
the R&W Insurance Policy in any manner inconsistent with the foregoing or otherwise adverse to the Securityholders (including, for
the avoidance of doubt, by reducing the scope or amount of coverage, increasing the retention or otherwise making any such termination,
amendment, waiver, modification or revision that would reasonably be expected to increase the Securityholders’ potential indemnification
exposure under Article VIII), without the prior written consent of the Securityholder Representative.
5.11
Obligations of Merger Subs. Merger Subs shall, and Purchaser shall cause Merger Subs to, perform when due its obligations
under this Agreement and consummate the Transactions pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Securityholders as part of the Earn-Out Amount pursuant to this Agreement may be offered and resold by such holders pursuant to the Registration
Statement, subject only to compliance by such holders with applicable securities laws and the delivery of any information reasonably requested
by Parent that is required to be included in the Earn-Out Prospectus Supplement under applicable Law.
(d)

and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on each such Prospectus Supplement (and any amendment or supplement
thereto) prior to filing and shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments of the Company or the Securityholder Representative,
as applicable; provided that such comments are provided to Parent no later than five (5) Business Days of receipt of the draft of such

made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.
60
(e)
Maintenance of Registration; Updates. From the Closing Date until the earlier of (A) six (6) months following the latest
date on which shares of Parent Common Stock may be issued to Securityholders pursuant to this Agreement, (B) the termination of this Agreement
in accordance with its terms, and (C) the date on which all shares of Parent Common Stock issued or may be issuable pursuant to this Agreement
cease to be Registrable Securities, Parent shall maintain the continued effectiveness of the Registration Statement and the availability
of the Prospectus Supplements for the resale of shares of Parent Common Stock, in each case, subject to Parent’s right to suspend
the use of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplements pursuant to Section 5.13(f), including by (i) filing on a

usable for resales of shares of Parent Common Stock, (ii) filing any replacement registration statement if necessary to maintain such
effectiveness, and (iii) complying in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in connection therewith.
(f)
Suspension of Registration Statement. Parent shall have the right at any time, upon written notice to the Securityholder
Representative (with immediate effect), to suspend the use of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus Supplements after effectiveness
and require that the Securityholders immediately cease sales of shares pursuant to any Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement,
in each case, (A) if Parent reasonably determines that continued use of the Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement would require
disclosure of material nonpublic information that Parent has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential and whose disclosure
would reasonably be expected to result in a violation of applicable securities laws, (B) there is a contemplated financing, acquisition,
disposition, corporate reorganization, merger, or other similar transaction or other material event or circumstance affecting Parent or
its securities, or (C) any other event occurs as a result of which the Registration Statement or any Prospectus Supplement, including
any document incorporated by reference therein, contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading
(each, a “Suspension Period”). Parent shall promptly notify the Securityholder Representative of the commencement of
any Suspension Period (without being required to disclose the underlying confidential information). If Parent suspends the use of any
Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement and requires the Securityholders to cease sales of shares pursuant to this Section
5.13(f), Parent shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the termination of the circumstance which entitled Parent to
do so, take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to terminate such suspension and give written notice to the Securityholder Representative
authorizing the Securityholders to resume sales pursuant to such Registration Statement and the applicable Prospectus Supplement. No Suspension
Period shall exceed forty-five (45) consecutive days, and the aggregate duration of all Suspension Periods shall not exceed ninety (90)
days during any twelve (12)-month period. Promptly following the termination of any Suspension Period (and in any event within two (2)
Business Days thereafter), Parent shall notify the Securityholder Representative that resales may resume and shall take all actions reasonably
necessary to permit the prompt resale of the Registrable Securities, including delivering any transfer agent instructions, legal opinions,
officer's certificates or other documentation reasonably required by its transfer agent and removing any restrictive legends or stop-transfer
instructions no longer required under applicable securities Laws.
(g)
Indemnification. Each Securityholder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent and its
directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates from and against any and all Losses arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any information furnished by or on behalf of such Securityholder for inclusion
in the Registration Statement or any Prospectus Supplement, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Losses arise out of or are based upon
any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished to Parent by or on behalf of such Securityholder for use therein.

each Earn-Out Amount Determination Date, any shares of Parent Common Stock issuable as part of the Earn-Out Amount in accordance with

has not been timely filed in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement, Parent shall promptly cause the shares of Parent
Common Stock that were otherwise contemplated to be subject to such Prospectus Supplement to be issued in book-entry form on the date
by which such Prospectus Supplement was required to be filed, subject to any restrictive legends required by applicable Law, and shall
cause such legends to be removed when (A) the applicable Prospectus Supplement has been filed, (B) such shares have been sold pursuant
to Rule 144, (C) such shares are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 without volume limitation or other restrictions on transfer thereunder,
or (D) such shares otherwise become freely transferable under applicable securities Laws, in each case, upon delivery to Parent of such
certifications as Parent may reasonably require to confirm that such legend removal or transfer is appropriate.
(iii)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each applicable holder shall be entitled to receive (A) with respect to any such
shares issuable in connection with the Closing as of the First Effective Time, any dividends or other distributions declared with a record
date occurring on or after the First Effective Time and (B) with respect to any such shares issuable as part of the Earn-Out Amount as

Tax Matters.
(a)
Straddle Periods. For the applicable purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, (i) in the case of
any Taxes that are not described in clause (ii) below, the amount of such Taxes for the Straddle Period that is allocated to the portion
of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount that would be payable if the taxable
period ended at the end of the day on the Closing Date based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing
Date, except that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization
deductions), other than with respect to property acquired or placed in service after the Closing, shall be allocated on a daily basis;
and (ii) in the case of any property or other similar ad valorem Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis, the amount of such Taxes
for the Straddle Period that is allocated to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be the

in the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which shall be the number of calendar
days in such entire Straddle Period.

and its Affiliates shall have the right, in such Person’s sole and absolute discretion, to conduct and control, through counsel
of such Person’s choosing, the defense of any Tax Contest against or with respect to such Person and to settle, adjust, or compromise
any such Tax Contest; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing or Section 8.3(b), with respect to any Tax Contest
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (i) the subject of which Tax Contest would reasonably
be expected to impact (x) the computation of the Final Net Working Capital, the Final Closing Indebtedness or Final Transaction Costs
or (y) the amount of Pre-Closing Tax Refund as finally determined under Section 5.14(e) or (ii) for which a Purchaser Indemnified

Purchaser shall consider in good faith, and (C) not settle, adjust, or compromise such Pre-Closing Tax Contest in a manner that would
reasonably be expected to result in or increase any amount economically borne by any Securityholder without the prior written consent
of the Securityholder Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, further, that
in the event that the Securityholder Representative has consented in writing to any such settlement, adjustment or compromise, such settlement,
adjustment or compromise shall be determinative of the existence and amount of Losses and neither the Securityholder Representative nor
any Securityholder shall have any power or authority to object to the amount of any claim by any Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnity
with respect to such settlement, adjustment or compromise. For the avoidance of doubt, the conduct and control of any Tax Contests shall
be governed solely by the provisions of this Section 5.14(c), and not by the terms of Section 8.3(b).
63
(d)
Intended Tax Treatment.
(i)
After the Closing, if the Mergers and this Agreement satisfy the requirements under applicable Law for the Intended Tax Treatment,
including the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e), the Parties shall file U.S. federal and applicable state and local
income Tax Returns consistently with the Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by or as a result of any (i) change in applicable
Law or (ii) Governmental Entity in connection with or following any Tax Contest. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the
contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except for the covenants expressly set forth in this Section 5.14(d),
none of Purchaser, Parent, Surviving Merger Sub, First Merger Sub, or any other Affiliate or representative of Purchaser makes or provides
any representations, warranties, guarantees, indemnities or covenants to the Company, any Affiliate of the Company, any Securityholder,
the Securityholder Representative or any other Person regarding (A) the Intended Tax Treatment, (B) the Tax treatment of the Mergers or
the Transactions or (C) any of the Tax consequences to the Company, any Affiliate of the Company, any Securityholder or any other Person
of this Agreement, the Mergers or the Transactions. Each of the Company, any Affiliate of the Company, the Securityholder Representative
and any Securityholder agrees and acknowledges that (1) such Person has had an adequate opportunity to review with its own Tax advisors
the Tax treatment and the Tax consequences of this Agreement, the Mergers or the Transactions, (2) such Person must rely solely on its
own advisors and not on any statements or representations by Purchaser, Parent, Surviving Merger Sub, First Merger Sub, or any other Affiliate
or representative of Purchaser, and (3) such Person will be solely responsible for any Taxes imposed on or with respect to such Person
as a result of or in connection with the Transactions. Until the date that is the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date, if the
requirements for the Intended Tax Treatment are otherwise satisfied, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not take any action (or formulate
or adopt any plan to take any action) (I) that would reasonably be expected to prevent the “continuity of business enterprise”
requirement under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(d) from being satisfied (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any transfer permitted
under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(k)) or (II) to effect or permit any liquidation of Purchaser (including any deemed liquidation
of Purchaser for U.S. federal income tax purposes), in each case of clauses (I) and (II), which would reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse impact on the Intended Tax Treatment, except as expressly contemplated under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document (including that this covenant shall not affect the structure of the contemplated transactions or amount or form of the consideration
as contemplated by this Agreement); provided that none of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed to have breached, or shall
have any liability to any Person in respect of, the covenant set forth in this Section 5.14(d)(i) to the extent that any failure of any
requirement under applicable Law for the Intended Tax Treatment to be satisfied is attributable, in whole or in part, to, (x) any action
taken (or plan formulated or adopted) by or on behalf of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Managed Entity at or prior to the
Closing or (y) any action taken (or plan formulated or adopted) by, at the direction of or with the consent of the Securityholder Representative
or the Key Employee, in each case of clauses (x) and (y), whether such action (or plan) operates alone or in combination with any other
action taken (or plan formulated or adopted) by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.
(ii)
The Earn-Out Amount shall be paid in shares of Parent Common Stock to the extent necessary, if possible, so that the Earn-Out Amount
does not cause the “continuity of interest” requirement under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e) in relation to the Intended
Tax Treatment to not be satisfied; provided that, for purposes of computing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock required to be
paid as Earn-Out Amount for purposes of this Section 5.14(d)(ii), the Parties agree that: (1) the minimum proportion of the proprietary
interests in the Company required to be preserved under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e) is forty percent (40%); (2) the Securityholders’
rights to receive the Earn-Out Amount shall not be valued on an estimated basis on the Closing Date, and instead valued as any Earn-Out
Amount becomes actually payable pursuant to Section 2.7; (3) the Per Share Stock Consideration shall be valued using the Parent
Stock Price; and (4) any share of Parent Common Stock to be paid as Earn-Out Amount shall be valued using the Earn-Out Payment Date VWAP. Purchaser
and Securityholder Representative shall cooperate reasonably and in good faith to determine the minimum amount (if any) of the Earn-Out
Amount to be paid in shares of Parent Common Stock in advance of any payment of the Earn-Out Amount consistently with the requirements
of this Section 5.14(d)(ii) and taking into account the Per Share Merger Consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) nothing
in this Section 5.14(d)(ii) shall (A) increase the aggregate Earn-Out Amount payable pursuant to Section 2.7 or (B) alter
the requirement that the aggregate cash portion of any Earn-Out Amount be determined by valuing any shares of Parent Common Stock payable
as part of such Earn-Out Amount using the Parent VWAP and subtracting such aggregate value of the shares of Parent Common Stock from the
Earn-Out Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.7; and (2) after the Earn-Out Amount has been paid with the number
of shares of Parent Common Stock (if any) and the amount of cash (if any) as mutually agreed by the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative
pursuant to this Section 5.14(d)(ii), Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not have any further obligation or liability to any Person
under this Section 5.14(d)(ii).
64
(e)
Any refunds of Taxes (or credits received in lieu of Tax refunds) of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that (i) are received
by Purchaser or its Affiliates after the Closing Date but before December 31, 2027, (ii) were not taken into account in the computation
of the Final Adjustment Amount, (iii) do not arise out of, or relate to, the carryback of any loss, deduction, credit or other Tax attribute
arising in any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing, (iv) are not required to be paid over to any third party
pursuant to any Contract entered into prior to Closing, and (v) are received with respect to Taxes for which the Securityholders would
be responsible pursuant to this Agreement (such refund of Taxes, “Pre-Closing Tax Refunds”), shall be, as reduced by
all Taxes of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates arising as a result thereof and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred
by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates related to such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds, for the account of the Securityholders. Within ten (10)
days after such Pre-Closing Tax Refund is actually received by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (or in the case of a credit in lieu
of tax refunds, within ten (10) days after the date of filing of the Tax Return (other than an estimated Tax Return) upon which such credit
is utilized), Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, the amount required to be paid under this Section 5.14(e) in cash, pursuant
to the same procedure described in Section 2.7(f), mutatis mutandis. To the extent that, prior to the date that is the two
(2) year anniversary of the date a Pre-Closing Tax Refund is paid to the Securityholders pursuant to this Section 5.14(e), a Tax
Contest is initiated with respect to (or otherwise involving) such Pre-Closing Tax Refund, the Securityholders shall repay to Purchaser
(including by offset against any Earn-Out Amount or amounts released or releasable from the Adjustment Escrow Account or the Indemnity
Escrow Account), within ten (10) days after the Securityholder Representative’s receipt of a written request from Purchaser accompanied
by reasonable supporting documentation of such determination and the amount claimed, the amount of such Pre-Closing Tax Refund that is
determined through such Tax Contest to be disallowed or required to be returned or repaid to the applicable Governmental Entity (together
with any applicable interest, penalties, fines and other additions imposed by such Governmental Entity, but excluding any such interest
or penalties to the extent resulting from (i) any breach of this Agreement by Purchaser or its Affiliates or (ii) any failure by Purchaser
or its Affiliates to timely file any Tax Return or pay any amount when due (other than, in each case of the immediately foregoing clauses
(i) and (ii), for the avoidance of doubt, any such breach or failure by the Company prior to the Closing)).
5.15
Exclusivity. During the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Closing or the termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Article VII, the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company’s Subsidiaries, Securityholders,
the Managed Entities and the employees, officers and directors of the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Managed Entities not to, and shall
instruct the Managed Entities and the third-party representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries not to, (i) solicit, initiate or
engage in any inquiries, negotiations or discussions with, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any Person (other
than Purchaser, Merger Subs, their respective Affiliates, and their respective representatives) concerning, any Acquisition Proposal (and
to cease any existing discussions or negotiations or information access with respect thereto) (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate
in any discussions or negotiations regarding an Acquisition Proposal, or furnish to any Person any non-public information or data for
the purpose of facilitating an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that is reasonably likely to lead to any Acquisition
Proposal (in each case other than, in response to an inquiry that did not result from or arise in connection with a breach of this Section
5.15, solely to clarify the terms of this Section 5.15), (iii) enter into any agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding,
letter of intent, term sheet, definitive acquisition agreement, merger agreement, share exchange agreement, consolidation agreement, option
agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement providing for an Acquisition Proposal, or (iv) publicly propose
to do any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in response to an inquiry that did not result from a breach of this Section
5.15, the Company and its representatives may inform the Person making such inquiry of the restrictions contained in this Section
5.15. The Company shall, and shall instruct its Affiliates and representatives to, terminate any existing discussions or negotiations
with any Person (other than Purchaser, Parent, Merger Subs and their respective representatives) regarding an Acquisition Proposal. During
the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article
VII, the Company shall notify Purchaser in writing within 48 hours after receipt by the Company of any Acquisition Proposal.
65
5.16
Notification of Certain Matters. During the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Closing
or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VII, each Party shall give prompt notice to the other Party of any event
which such Party becomes aware of, the occurrence, or non-occurrence of which causes any of the conditions set forth in Article VI
to fail at any time from the date of this Agreement to the First Effective Time.
5.17
Section 280G.
(a)
Parachute Payment Waiver. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain prior to the initiation of
the stockholder approval procedure under Section 5.17(b), a waiver of the right to receive payments that could constitute “parachute
payments” under Section 280G of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder (a “Parachute Payment Waiver”),
in a form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, from each applicable “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section
280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), as determined immediately prior to the initiation of the stockholder approval
procedure under Section 5.17(b), who the Company believes might otherwise receive, have received, or have the right or entitlement
to receive any parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code.
(b)
280G Stockholder Approval. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain stockholder approval as is
required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder so as to render the parachute payment
provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to any and all payments and/or benefits provided pursuant to the Contracts or arrangements
that, in the absence of the executed Parachute Payment Waivers by the affected Persons under Section 5.17(a), might otherwise result,
separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount and/or the provision of any benefit that would not be deductible by reason
of Section 280G of the Code, with such stockholder vote to be obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of Section
280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company shall provide to Purchaser, prior to obtaining any executed
Parachute Payment Waivers, (a) a draft of the form of Parachute Payment Waiver and the documents relating to the stockholder approval
procedure under this Section 5.17(b), including a draft of the disclosure to be provided to the applicable stockholders in accordance
with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of the Treasury Regulations and (b) copies of documentation regarding
the determination of the parachute payments pursuant to the Parachute Payment Waivers, including any applicable calculations prepared
by the Company or the Company’s advisors. The Company shall incorporate any reasonable comments made by Purchaser to the form of
Parachute Payment Waiver and such documents prior to the Company soliciting executed Parachute Payment Waivers and submitting a written
resolution to the applicable stockholders for approval in accordance with this Section 5.17(b), which comments shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser evidence either (i) the requisite stockholder
approval was obtained with respect to any payments or benefits that were subject to the stockholder vote (the “280G Shareholder
Approval”) or (ii) that the 280G Shareholder Approval was not obtained.
5.18
Specified Actions. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, use commercially
reasonable efforts to complete the actions set forth in Schedule 5.18 of the Company Disclosure Letter.
5.19
Medical Malpractice Insurance. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing and the termination of this
Agreement under Article VII, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and the Managed Entities to: (a) keep each medical malpractice
insurance policy listed on Schedule 5.7(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter (the “MedMal Policies”) in full force and
effect, on the same or no less favorable terms to the Company and its Subsidiaries as those in effect on the date of this Agreement (including
coverage limits, retentions and deductibles, scope of coverage, covered persons), (b) not cancel, terminate, allow to lapse, fail to renew,
surrender or reduce coverage under any MedMal Policy, and not amend, modify or waive any term of any MedMal Policy in a manner that would
make it less favorable to the Company and its Subsidiaries than on the date of this Agreement and (c) timely pay all premiums and other
amounts due under each MedMal Policy and otherwise comply in all material respects with its terms.

the Closing by the Company if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser, Parent
or Merger Subs in this Agreement, or any such representation and warranty shall have become untrue after the date of this Agreement, such
that Section 6.3(a) or 6.3(b) would not be satisfied and such breach or condition is not curable or, if curable, is not

prior to the Closing by Purchaser if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company

of any of its directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, legal and financial advisors or other representatives); provided,
however, that (a) no such termination shall relieve any Party of any liability or damages resulting from any willful or intentional breach

(No Other Representations and Warranties), Section 4.12 (Investigation; Non-Reliance), Section 5.8 (Expenses), Article
X (Miscellaneous and General) and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Without limiting
the Company’s rights under any other provision of this Agreement (including the Company’s right to specific performance pursuant
to Section 10.13), the Company may petition a court to award damages in connection with any willful or intentional breach by Purchaser
or Parent of this Agreement, and Purchaser and Parent agree that such damages shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket
costs, but shall include the benefit of the bargain lost by the Company and its stockholders (taking into consideration relevant matters,
including other transaction opportunities and the time value of money). For purposes hereof, a “willful or intentional breach”
shall mean a breach of any material representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement set forth in this Agreement that is a consequence
of an act undertaken or failure to act by the breaching party with the actual knowledge that the taking of such act or failure to act
would cause a breach of this Agreement. The failure of Purchaser or Parent to consummate the Closing for any reason when required pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement and/or to make the payments required under Article I and Article II for any reason when required
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall, in each case, be a willful and intentional breach of this Agreement by it that (i) is not
capable of being cured, (ii) has prevented consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) gives rise to the Company’s
termination right pursuant to Section 7.3.

which supersedes any statute of limitations that would otherwise apply, and no Party shall thereafter assert any claim, cause of action,
right or remedy, or any Action, with respect to such applicable Section of this Article VIII.
(e)
If on or prior to the last day of the applicable survival period for an item set forth in Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(b)
(the “Applicable Survival Period”), a Purchaser Indemnified Party has validly and timely delivered to the Securityholder

then the Applicable Survival Period with respect to such claim shall extend until the Final Determination of such indemnification claim.

by contract, the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such item shall be increased to the extended Applicable Survival Period

(c)

(i)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any amounts indemnifiable pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i)
or Section 8.2(a)(ii), the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue coverage under the

8.3
Claim Procedures.
(a)
In order for a Purchaser Indemnified Party to duly make a valid claim with respect to any of the occurrences specified in Section
8.2(a), the Purchaser Indemnified Party must (promptly, but in no event more than thirty (30) Business Days following the first date
on which such Purchaser Indemnified Party has knowledge of facts, matters or circumstances from which it is reasonably apparent that such
an occurrence is likely to have occurred), provide written notice to the Securityholder Representative, which notice shall set forth (i)
a description in reasonable detail of the occurrence(s) specified in Section 8.2(a) which the Purchaser Indemnified Party alleges
to have occurred, (ii) a description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to such occurrences, the estimated amount of Losses actually
incurred or suffered as the result thereof, and (iii) a description of any other remedy sought in connection therewith, any relevant time
constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”);
provided, that the failure to provide prompt notice shall not release the Securityholders from any of their obligations under this Article
VIII except to the extent and only to the extent the Securityholders are prejudiced by such failure. The Purchaser Indemnified Party
shall cooperate with and provide to the Securityholder Representative such information under the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s control
as the Securityholder Representative may reasonably request for the purposes of determining the validity of the allegations made in the
Claim Notice and shall keep the Securityholder Representative reasonably and promptly informed of factual and procedural developments
in connection therewith. The Securityholder Representative and the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Law) to third parties and to cause all communications among
employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client
or work product privileges.
74
(b)
In the event the Claim Notice results from any Action asserted or threatened against, the Purchaser Indemnified Party by a third
party (a “Third Party Claim”):
(i)
The Purchaser Indemnified Party shall provide the Claim Notice to the Securityholder Representative not later than the 20th
Business Day following the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s receipt of the Third Party Claim, provided, that the failure to provide
prompt notice shall not release the Securityholders from any of their obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent
the Securityholders are prejudiced by such failure.
(ii)
During the period ending on the earlier of the 30th calendar day following the Securityholder Representative’s receipt of
the Claim Notice and the fifth calendar day preceding the date on which an appearance is required to be made before a court, arbitrator
or other tribunal or an answer or similar pleading is required to be filed in a litigation or other proceeding, the Securityholder Representative
shall be entitled to notify the Purchaser Indemnified Party of its election to assume and control the defense of the Third Party Claim,
unless the Purchaser Indemnified Party has determined in good faith (which determination, if reasonably ascertainable at the time, must
be set forth in the Claim Notice delivered to the Securityholder Representative) that (i) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction
or other equitable or non-monetary relief against the Purchaser Indemnified Party (other than injunctive, equitable or non-monetary relief
that is incidental to monetary damages as the primary relief sought), (ii) the Third Party Claim arises in connection with any criminal
matter, (iii) the Losses sought in connection with such Third Party Claim are reasonably likely to exceed the Cap, (iv) involves
any dispute with a payor or customer, or (v) there is a reasonable probability that the Third Party Claim may materially adversely
affect the Purchaser Indemnified Party or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages.
(A)
In the event that the Securityholder Representative is entitled to and duly and timely makes such election, the Securityholder
Representative shall defend the Purchaser Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings and shall have the sole power (as between the Securityholder
Representative and the Purchaser Indemnified Party and their respective Affiliates) to direct and control such defense and the settlement,
arbitration, litigation and appellate strategy relating to the Third Party Claim. The Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled but
not obligated to participate in any such defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing for such purpose; provided, that
the fees and expenses shall be borne by the Purchaser Indemnified Party and shall not be recoverable from the Securityholders under this
Section 8.3. If the Securityholder Representative shall control the defense of any such claim, the Securityholder Representative
shall be entitled to settle such claims; provided that, the Securityholder Representative shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Purchaser Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle, compromise
or offer to settle, compromise or cease to defend such Third Party Claim if such settlement, compromise or cessation would result in (i) any
monetary liability of the Purchaser Indemnified Party that will not be promptly paid or reimbursed by the Securityholders; (ii) the
imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would materially restrict the future activity or conduct of the Purchaser Indemnified
Party or any of its Affiliates; or (iii) a finding or admission of a material violation of Law by the Purchaser Indemnified Party
or any of its Affiliates.
(B)
If the Securityholder Representative is not entitled to or does not duly and timely make such election, the Purchaser Indemnified
Party shall be entitled but not obligated (subject to Section 8.7 (Minimizing and Mitigating Losses)) to notify the Securityholder
Representative of its election to assume and control such defense from the Securityholder Representative, whereupon the Purchaser Indemnified
Party and not the Securityholder Representative shall have the powers described in the first sentence of Section 8.3(b)(ii)(A);
provided that the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s right to be indemnified, defended and held harmless in respect of the Third
Party Claim shall not otherwise be affected by such election; provided, further, that the Purchaser Indemnified Party may
not settle any such matter without the prior written consent of the Securityholder Representative (which shall not unreasonably be withheld,
conditioned or delayed) if the Purchaser Indemnified Party is seeking or will seek indemnification hereunder with respect to such matter.
75
(C)
Purchaser may settle, adjust or compromise any Third Party Claim of which it is entitled to control the defense pursuant to Section
8.3(b)(ii), with or without the consent of the Securityholder Representative; provided, that, without the prior written consent of
the Securityholder Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, no settlement, adjustment,
or compromise of any Third Party Claim shall be determinative of the existence of a claim for indemnification under this Article VIII
or the amount of Losses relating to such claim (and the Securityholders shall accordingly have no obligation to indemnify, defend or hold
harmless any Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect thereof). In the event that the Securityholder Representative has consented in writing
to any such settlement, adjustment or compromise, such settlement, adjustment or compromise shall be determinative of the existence and
amount of Losses and neither the Securityholder Representative nor any Securityholder shall have any power or authority to object to the
amount of any claim by any Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnity with respect to such settlement, adjustment or compromise.
(iii)
The Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Securityholder Representative shall cooperate in order to ensure the proper and adequate
investigation and defense of all Third Party Claims, including by providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant business
records, documents and employees, for purposes of investigation, document production, testimony and otherwise. The Purchaser Indemnified
Party and the Securityholder Representative shall keep each other fully and promptly informed with respect to the status of all Third
Party Claims and shall deliver to each other copies of all material written notices and documents (including court papers) received by
the other that relate to any Third Party Claims. The Person controlling the defense of a Third Party Claim shall in good faith allow the
Securityholder Representative or Purchaser Indemnified Party, as the case may be, to make comments to the materials filed or submitted
in such defense, and shall consider such comments in good faith.
8.4
Losses and Recoveries.
(a)
No Speculative or Punitive Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Securityholder
shall have any liability to a Purchaser Indemnified Party, and no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified, defended
or held harmless, in respect of, and Losses shall not include, any speculative damages, punitive damages or consequential damages (other
than consequential damages that are reasonably foreseeable), except to the extent awarded to a third party in a Third Party Claim pursuant
to a final and non-appealable Order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(b)
Insurance. In calculating the amount of any Loss, the proceeds actually received by the Purchaser Indemnified Party or any
of its Affiliates under any insurance policy or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person,
in each case relating to the matters described in the Claim Notice shall be deducted, less the costs incurred in obtaining such recovery,
and the amount of any deductibles, retentions, retrospective premiums, or any increase in premiums attributable for such recovery, except
to the extent that the adjustment itself would excuse, exclude or limit the coverage of all or part of such Loss. The Purchaser Indemnified
Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover any such insurance or other proceeds from third parties. In the event that,
after having complied with the preceding sentence, a Purchaser Indemnified Party still has any rights against a third party with respect
to any occurrence, claim or Loss that results in a payment by a Securityholder under this Article VIII, such Securityholder shall
be subrogated to such rights to the extent of such payment. Each Purchaser Indemnified Party and Securityholder shall duly execute upon
request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the subrogation and subordination rights detailed herein, and otherwise
cooperate in the prosecution of such claims.
76
(c)
Reimbursement. If a Purchaser Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third party in respect of a Loss after all or
a portion of such Loss has been paid by the Securityholders pursuant to this Article VIII, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall
promptly remit to the Securityholders the excess (if any) of (i) the amount paid by the Securityholders in respect of such Loss,
plus the amount received from the third party in respect thereof, less (ii) the full amount of the Loss, and less (iii)
the costs incurred in obtaining such recovery.
(d)
No Double Recovery. No Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover more than once in respect of the same Loss
(notwithstanding that such Loss may result from more than one of the occurrences specified in Section 8.2(a)).
8.5
Indemnification Payments.
(a)
The Securityholders shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the Purchaser Indemnified Party the amount of any Loss for which it is liable
hereunder, in immediately available funds, to an account specified by the Purchaser Indemnified Party no later than five (5) Business
Days following any Final Determination of the claims set forth in the related Claim Notice.
(b)
In the event that any Loss is incurred or suffered by a Purchaser Indemnified Party in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, and
the Purchaser Indemnified Party elects for such claim to indemnification to be paid in U.S. Dollars, such foreign currency Loss shall
be converted into U.S. Dollars based on the central bank rate in such other country for the conversion of such currency into U.S. Dollars
in effect as of the date of Final Determination of the applicable claim.
(c)
Upon notice specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor, Purchaser and each Securityholder shall have the right to set-off
any amounts owed under this Article VIII against any amounts owed under any other provisions of this Agreement.
(d)
All payments made by a Securityholder to a Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of any claim pursuant to Section 8.2(a)
shall be treated as adjustments to the consideration paid pursuant to the Transactions for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by
applicable Law.
8.6
Indemnity Escrow Account Release.
(a)
No later than the first (1st) Business Day following December 31, 2027, Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall deliver
joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to distribute to the Exchange Agent (for further distribution
to the Securityholders) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) fifty percent (50%) of the Indemnity Escrow Amount less (y) the
sum of (1) all amounts previously distributed to Purchaser Indemnified Parties from the Indemnity Escrow Account and (2) any amounts reasonably
and in good faith estimated by Purchaser to be necessary to satisfy each pending and unresolved claim for indemnification asserted by
a Purchaser Indemnified Party for which a valid Claim Notice has been timely delivered to the Securityholder Representative in accordance
with this Article VIII prior to December 31, 2027.
77
(b)
No later than the first (1st) Business Day following the date that is two (2) years after the Closing Date, Purchaser
and the Securityholder Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to distribute
to the Exchange Agent (for further distribution to the Securityholders) all cash then remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account (together
with any interest and other earnings thereon), less only the amount reasonably and in good faith estimated by Purchaser to be necessary
to satisfy each pending and unresolved claim for indemnification asserted by a Purchaser Indemnified Party for which a valid Claim Notice
has been timely delivered to the Securityholder Representative in accordance with this Article VIII prior to the two (2)-year anniversary
of the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, only the portion of the Indemnity Escrow Account reasonably allocable to each such pending
claim shall continue to be retained, and no amounts shall be retained in excess of the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy such claim.
Within five (5) Business Days following the Final Determination of any such claim, Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall
deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to distribute to the Exchange Agent (for further distribution
to the Securityholders) any portion of the retained amount (together with any interest and other earnings attributable thereto) that is
not required pursuant to such Final Determination to satisfy such claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any amounts payable
pursuant to this Section 8.6 to Employee Optionholders shall be made to the Second Surviving Company’s payroll account (or
such other applicable payroll-related account designated by Purchaser, if applicable) for the benefit of, and further payment to, the
Employee Optionholders on the next applicable regularly scheduled payroll date that is at least five (5) Business Days following the date
of such payment, subject to applicable withholding, payroll, employment, FICA, unemployment, and similar Taxes. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, solely to the extent necessary for compliance with Section 409A of the Code, no portion of any of the foregoing
payments in this Article VIII to Optionholders will be payable to Optionholders following the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing.
8.7
Minimizing and Mitigating Losses. Each Purchaser Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize
and mitigate any indemnifiable Loss (including by taking any reasonable actions requested by the Securityholder Representative), and if
the Purchaser Indemnified Party fails to do so, the Securityholders shall have no liability for any portion of such Loss that reasonably
could have been avoided had the Purchaser Indemnified Party so complied. The costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified
Party in such mitigation efforts shall be considered indemnifiable Losses hereunder, subject to the limitations in this Article VIII.
8.8
Exclusive Remedies. Other than in the case of Fraud or to the extent arising out of the other Transaction Documents, following
the Closing, no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall assert against any Securityholder any claim, cause of action, right or remedy, or any
Action, relating to this Agreement, the Transactions or any instrument delivered in connection herewith or therewith, other than (i) as
set forth in Section 2.6 and Section 2.9, (ii) claims pursuant to Section 5.13(g) and this Article VIII, (iii)
claims pursuant to Section 10.13 and (iv) claims pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.
Following the Closing, the claims and remedies specified in clauses (i) through (iv) of the previous sentence shall constitute the
sole and exclusive rights and remedies available to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any and all Losses or other claims relating
to or arising out of this Agreement, the Transactions and any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith or therewith, and
shall supersede all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity (including any right of rescission), other than in the case
of Fraud.

Securityholder Representative
9.1
Acknowledgement. Housatonic IV CF, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, is hereby appointed as the agent and attorney-in-fact
of the Securityholders as the Securityholder Representative for and on behalf of the Securityholders. Each Securityholder hereby irrevocably
agrees to be bound by all steps, actions and failures to act of the Securityholder Representative in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser, Parent, the Exchange Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon
(without any further inquiry) any action or inaction made by the Securityholder Representative taken on behalf of the Securityholders
in connection with the Transactions. Each Securityholder shall be deemed to have authorized and empowered the Securityholder Representative,
on its behalf and in its name, directly or through one or more designees of the Securityholder Representative, to:
(a)
act for and on behalf of each Securityholder in any and all capacities and to do and perform every act and thing required or permitted
to be done, in the reasonable judgment of the Securityholder Representative, under this Agreement or in connection with the Transactions;
(b)
give and receive all notices or documents or other information or materials given or to be given to or by the Securityholders pursuant
hereto or in connection herewith and to give and receive and accept service of legal process in connection with any suit or proceeding
arising under this Agreement;

the Transactions.

to reimbursement for out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including legal, accounting and other advisors’ fees and expenses, if applicable)
incurred by the Securityholder Representative in performing its duties under this Agreement. In the event that the Securityholder Representative
Expense Amount is insufficient to cover the fees and expenses incurred by the Securityholder Representative in performing its obligations
under this Agreement, each Securityholder shall be obligated to pay a portion of such deficiency in an amount equal to the product of
the aggregate amount of such deficiency multiplied by the quotient of (a) the sum of (i) the number of shares of Company Capital Stock
and (ii) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to Vested Company Options, in each case, held by such Securityholder as
of immediately prior to the First Effective Time; and (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate number of shares of Company Capital Stock and (ii)
the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to Vested Company Options, in each case, issued and outstanding as of immediately
prior to the First Effective Time. Without limiting the foregoing, the Securityholder Representative shall be entitled to deduct any such
fees and expenses in excess of the then-remaining portion of the Securityholder Representative Expense Amount from any amounts payable
to the Securityholders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Securityholder Representative may disburse all or any portion
of the then-remaining Securityholder Representative Expense Amount whenever it chooses and any amount so disbursed shall be disbursed
to the Securityholders in proportion to their respective proportionate share.

This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented by the Parties at any time solely by an instrument in writing signed on
behalf of each of the Parties. To the extent permitted under the DGCL, the approval of the Transactions by the Stockholders shall not
restrict the ability of the board of directors of the Company to cause the Company to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Article

of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if expressly set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of

10.6
Entire Agreement; Confidentiality.
(a)
This Agreement (including any exhibits or annexes hereto), the Company Disclosure Letter, the Exchange Agent Agreement, the Escrow
Agreement, and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings,
representations and warranties both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(b)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party acknowledges and agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate
and be of no further force or effect at and as of the Closing and this Agreement supersedes any provision to the contrary in the Confidentiality
Agreement; provided that irrespective of any such termination of the Confidentiality Agreement at the Closing, Purchaser and Parent shall,
and shall cause their respective Affiliates and representatives to, keep confidential any information concerning the Securityholders furnished
in connection with the Transactions.
10.7
No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in (a) Section 5.7 with respect to the Indemnitees and the insureds
under the D&O Insurance from and after the Closing, (b) Section 10.14 with respect to Prior Company Counsel, (c) Section
10.12 with respect to the Releasees, (d) Article II with respect to the Securityholders, (e) Section 10.15 with respect
to the Non-Recourse Parties, and (f) the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Article VIII, the Parties agree that their respective
representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other Parties, in accordance with and subject
to the terms of this Agreement, and this Agreement is not intended to, and does not confer, upon any Person other than the Parties and
their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns any rights or remedies, express or implied, hereunder, including
without limitation, the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein.
10.8
Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings set forth in Annex A hereto.
10.9
Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision of this Agreement to any Person
or circumstance be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable to any extent: (a) such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, and only
to the extent, of such unenforceability, illegality or prohibition and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law, (b)
such unenforceability, illegality or prohibition in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision as applied
(i) to other Persons or circumstances or (ii) in any other jurisdiction, and (c) such unenforceability, illegality or prohibition shall
not affect or invalidate any other provision of this Agreement.
10.10
Interpretation. The table of contents and headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part
of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement
is made to an Annex, Exhibit, Section or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Annex, Exhibit, Section or Schedule of this Agreement
unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this
Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof”, “herein”,
“hereunder” and words of similar import referring to this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement as a whole
and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The term “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”.
The term “ordinary course of business” shall be understood to include any action reasonably taken or not taken in response
to exigent circumstances. Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business
Days are specified. Whenever any action must be taken hereunder on or by a day that is not a Business Day, then such action may be validly
taken on or by the next day that is a Business Day. The words “shall” and “will” shall be construed
as creating a mandatory obligation. The parties to this Agreement have participated jointly in negotiating and drafting this Agreement.
In the event that an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly
by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship
of any provision of this Agreement.
83
10.11
Assignment. The Parties shall not assign (by operation of law or otherwise) this Agreement or any part hereof without the
prior written consent of the non-assigning Parties and any assignment in violation of this Section 10.11 shall be null and void
ab initio. Any assignment permitted under this Section 10.11 shall not relieve the assigning party of its obligations hereunder.
Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted
successors and assigns. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10.11 shall be construed as precluding subrogation
or assignment to the insurer that issues the R&W Insurance Policy in the case of losses resulting from Fraud with respect to the making
of the representations and warranties contained in Article III of this Agreement (as qualified by the Company Disclosure Letter).
10.12
Release(a). Effective as of the Closing, each of Purchaser and Parent, for itself and its Affiliates and each such Person’s
respective successors, assigns, executors, heirs, officers, directors, managers, partners and employees (each a “Purchaser Releasor”),
hereby irrevocably, knowingly and voluntarily releases, discharges and forever waives and relinquishes all claims, demands, obligations,
liabilities, defenses, affirmative defenses, setoffs, counterclaims, Actions and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, whether
known or unknown, which any of the Purchaser Releasors has, might have or might assert now or in the future, against the Securityholders,
the Company and their respective officers, directors, managers, partners and employees (in each case solely in their capacity as such)
(each, a “Releasee”), arising out of, based upon or resulting from any Contract, transaction, event, circumstance,
action, failure to act or occurrence of any sort or type, whether known or unknown, and that occurred, existed or was taken or permitted
at or prior to the Closing, in each case to the extent arising from or in connection with the ownership or operation of the Company; provided,
that nothing contained in this Section 10.12 shall release, waive, discharge, relinquish or otherwise affect (a) the rights or
obligations of any party to the extent arising out of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or (b) any rights, claims or obligations
of any Purchaser Releasor arising under or relating to any existing commercial Contract between Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries or
Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, including the Company’s engagement of
Purchaser’s eRAD radiology information system and picture archiving and communication system services, in each case whether such
rights, claims or obligations arise prior to, on or after the Closing. Each of Purchaser and Parent, for itself and its Affiliates acknowledges
that it has been informed of, and that Purchaser, Parent or such Affiliate is familiar with, Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State
of California, which provides as follows: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES
NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY
AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.” Each of Purchaser and Parent, for itself and its Affiliates,
hereby waives and relinquishes (x) all rights and benefits such Person has or may have under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State
of California, to the full extent that such Person may lawfully waive all such rights and benefits pertaining to the subject matters of
this Agreement and (y) any similar or comparable protections afforded by any case law or statutes of similar import, whether such laws
are in the United States or elsewhere in the world. It is expressly agreed that the Releasees to whom this Section 10.12 applies
shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 10.12 from and after the Closing and shall be entitled to enforce the releases
and covenants contained herein.
84
10.13
Specific Performance.
(a)
Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the rights of each Party to consummate the Transactions are special, unique and
of extraordinary character and that if for any reason any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their
specific terms or are otherwise breached, immediate and irreparable harm or damage would be caused for which money damages may not be
an adequate remedy. Accordingly, in addition to any other available remedies a Party may have in equity or at law, each Party shall be
entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement and to obtain an injunction restraining any breach or violation
or threatened breach or violation of the provisions of this Agreement in the Chosen Courts without necessity of posting a bond or other
form of security. In the event that any proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no Party shall
allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law.
(b)
To the extent any Party brings a proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement
(other than a proceeding to specifically enforce any provision that expressly survives termination of this Agreement) when expressly available
to such Party pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended to (i) the
twentieth (20) Business Day following the resolution of such proceeding, or (ii) such other time period established by the court
presiding over such proceeding.
10.14
Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representations; Non-Assertion of Attorney-Client Privilege.
(a)
Conflicts of Interest. Each of Purchaser and Parent acknowledges that Sullivan & Cromwell LLP (“Prior Company
Counsel”) has, on or prior to the Closing Date, represented one or more of the Securityholders, the Securityholder Representative,
the Company and its Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and their respective officers, employees and directors (each such Person, other
than the Company and its Subsidiaries, a “Designated Person”) in the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery
of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Transactions and the sale process generally undertaken
in connection therewith (each, an “Existing Representation”), and that, in the event of any post-Closing disputes (x) arising
under or relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (including any matter that may be related to a litigation, claim
or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement) and (y) in which Purchaser, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates (including
the Second Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and one or more Designated Persons, on the other hand, are or may
be adverse to each other (each, a “Post-Closing Matter”), the Designated Persons reasonably anticipate that Prior Company
Counsel will represent them in connection with such matters. Accordingly, from and after the Closing, each of Purchaser, Parent and the
Second Surviving Company hereby (i) waives and shall not assert, and agrees after the Closing to cause its Affiliates to waive and
to not assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation by one or more Prior Company Counsel of one or
more Designated Persons in connection with one or more Post-Closing Matters (the “Post-Closing Representation”), except
to the extent required by court order and (ii) agrees that, in the event that a Post-Closing Matter arises, Prior Company Counsel
may represent one or more Designated Persons in such Post-Closing Matter even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse
to Purchaser, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates (including the Second Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries), and even though
Prior Company Counsel may (A) have represented the Company or its Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute
or (B) be currently representing the Second Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, from and
after the Closing each of Purchaser, Parent and the Second Surviving Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) consents to the
disclosure by Prior Company Counsel, in connection with one or more Post-Closing Representations, to the Designated Persons of any information
to the extent related to such Post-Closing Representations learned by Prior Company Counsel in the course of one or more Existing Representations
and to the extent related to such Existing Representations, whether or not such information is subject to the attorney-client privilege
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Prior Company Counsel’s duty of confidentiality as to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
and whether or not such disclosure is made before or after the Closing.
85
(b)
Attorney-Client Privilege. Each of Purchaser, Parent and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) waives and
shall not assert, and agrees after the Closing to cause its Affiliates to waive and to not assert, any attorney-client privilege, attorney
work-product protection or expectation of client confidence with respect to any communication between any Prior Company Counsel, on the
one hand, and any Designated Person or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand (collectively, the “Pre-Closing
Designated Persons”), or any advice given to any Pre-Closing Designated Person by any Prior Company Counsel, in each case to
the extent occurring under one or more Existing Representations (collectively, “Pre-Closing Privileges”) in connection
with any Post-Closing Representation, it being the intention of the Parties hereto that all rights to such Pre-Closing Privileges, and
all rights to waive or otherwise control such Pre-Closing Privileges, shall be retained by the Securityholders and the Securityholder
Representative, and shall not pass to or be claimed or used by Purchaser, Parent or the Company, except as provided in the last sentence
of this Section 10.14(b). For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.14,
any privilege, work-product protection or expectation of confidence attaching to advice given by Prior Company Counsel or any other counsel
to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the ongoing business, operations, compliance or Tax matters of the Company or its
Subsidiaries (as opposed to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and
the consummation of the Transactions) shall be an asset of the Company, shall not constitute a Pre-Closing Privilege, and shall be retained
and controlled by Purchaser and the Second Surviving Company from and after the Closing. Furthermore, each of Purchaser, Parent and the
Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) acknowledges and agrees that any advice given to or communication with any of the Designated
Persons to the extent related to an Existing Representation or a Post-Closing Representation shall not be subject to any joint privilege
(whether or not the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries also received such advice or communication) and shall be owned solely by
such Designated Persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that from and after the Closing a dispute arises between Purchaser,
Parent or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and a third party other than a Designated Person, on the other hand,
the Company shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) assert to the extent available the Pre-Closing Privileges on behalf of the Designated
Persons to prevent disclosure of Privileged Materials to such third party; provided, however, that such privilege may be
waived only with the prior written consent of the Securityholder Representative (on behalf of the Securityholders), which consent shall
not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.
(c)
Privileged Materials. All such Pre-Closing Privileges, and all books and records and other documents of the Company and
its Subsidiaries to the extent containing any advice or communication that is subject to any Pre-Closing Privilege (“Privileged
Materials”), shall be deemed excluded from the acquisition of the shares of Company Capital Stock. Purchaser hereby agrees not
to use any Privileged Materials existing on the Purchaser’s servers, electronic backup systems, e-mail archives or any other books
and records after the Closing.
(d)
Miscellaneous. Each of Purchaser and Parent hereby acknowledges that it has had the opportunity (including on behalf of
its Affiliates and the Company and its Subsidiaries) to discuss and obtain adequate information concerning the significance and material
risks of, and reasonable available alternatives to, the waivers, permissions and other provisions of this Agreement, including the opportunity
to consult with counsel other than Prior Company Counsel. This Section 10.14 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section
10.14 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative (on
behalf of the Securityholders) and Prior Company Counsel affected thereby.
86
10.15
No Recourse. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any rights of a party at Law or in equity, this Agreement
may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or
related to this Agreement may only be brought against, the parties to this Agreement and to any other Transaction Document and then only
with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein or therein (each, a “Contracting Party”). Except to the extent
a named party to this Agreement, the Exchange Agent Agreement or the Escrow Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations
undertaken by such named party in this Agreement, the Exchange Agent Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, as applicable, and not otherwise),
no former, current or future Affiliate of any Contracting Party (other than another Contracting Party), any former, current or future
director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate, successor or assignee of any
of the foregoing (except to the extent in the capacity as a Contracting Party) (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Parties”),
shall have any liability, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any Action, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other
applicable Law, for any obligations or liabilities of the parties or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, this Agreement;
provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.15 shall limit any liability or other obligation of the parties
for breaches of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. Each Party hereby waives and discharges
any such claim, cause of action, right, remedy and Action, and releases (and agrees to execute and deliver any instrument necessary to
effectuate the release of) each Non-Recourse Party therefrom. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10.15 shall be
construed as limiting the ability of an insured under the R&W Insurance Policy from recovering against the R&W Insurance Policy.
10.16
Guarantee. Parent hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the performance by Purchaser of all of Purchaser’s
covenants and obligations under this Agreement. This guarantee is a guarantee of payment and performance and not merely of collection,
and Parent waives any right to require the Company, the Securityholders or the Securityholder Representative to exhaust other remedies
before proceeding against Parent. The obligations of Parent hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until all such covenants and
obligations of Purchaser have been satisfied in full. Should Purchaser fail to perform any such covenants or obligations when due pursuant
to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent promises to pay on demand the applicable amount that Purchaser
is liable to pay under this Agreement (and to otherwise perform any other obligation to the extent the performance of such obligation
requires actions other than payments). Parent’s obligations under this Section 10.16 shall be in addition to any rights the
Company, the Securityholders and the Securityholder Representative may have under any other agreement.

Section 3.1
Non-Solicitation and No-Hire. Stockholder agrees that, during the Non-Solicit Restricted Period, it will not, and will
cause its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, hire, engage, solicit or induce, or assist another Person to solicit or
induce, any Restricted Employee to resign or otherwise leave the employ of any of the Company Entities or to accept employment with any
other Person unaffiliated with Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company Entities) (whether as an employee, consultant,
or independent contractor). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) generalized advertisements of employment by Stockholder or any of its Affiliates
that are not specifically focused on or targeted at any of the Restricted Employees shall not, solely by way of such generalized advertisement,
constitute a violation by Stockholder of this Section 3.1; and (y) this Section 3.1 will not prohibit Stockholder or any
of its Affiliates from hiring or engaging any Restricted Employee whose employment or engagement with Purchaser and its Affiliates (including
the Company Entities) was terminated following the Closing and who has not been employed or engaged by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates
(including the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Managed Entities) for at least six (6) months prior to such hiring or engagement.
Section 3.2
Non-Interference with Business Relationships. Stockholder agrees that, during the Non-Solicit Restricted Period, it
will not, and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, induce, or encourage any customer, client,
licensee, payer, supplier, vendor, or other business relation of the Company Entities, in each case as of the Closing, to terminate, reduce,
or materially and adversely modify its business relationship with the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company Entities),
or to divert any such business relationship to any Person other than Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company Entities),
or (ii) otherwise interfere with, disrupt, impair, or adversely affect any business relationship between the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates
(including the Company Entities), on the one hand, and any customer, client, licensee, payer, supplier, vendor, or other business relation
of the Company Entities, on the other hand, in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), with respect to the provision of
services competitive with the Restricted Business (as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 3.2
shall prevent or restrict Stockholder from making any business decisions in his or her capacity as an employee or officer of Parent, Purchaser,
the Company Entities, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable (including terminating any customer, client, licensee, payer,
supplier, vendor or other business relation of the Company Entities, or otherwise modifying or amending the terms of any such business
relationship).
Section 3.3
Non-Competition. Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that, during the Restricted Period, it will not, and will cause
its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, (i) establish, own any interest in, engage in, operate, manage, control, participate
in, consult with, render services for (as a director, manager, officer, employee, agent, broker, partner, contractor, consultant or otherwise)
or be or become engaged or involved in any Restricted Business, including by being or becoming an organizer, owner, co-owner, trustee,
promoter, investor, lender, partner, joint venturer, equityholder, officer, director, employee, manager, or in any other capacity engaging
in, owning, managing, operating, rendering services to, or participating in the ownership, management, operation or control of any Restricted
Business; (ii) make any investment (whether equity, debt or otherwise) in any Restricted Business; or (iii) otherwise engage in, or compete
with, all or any portion of any Restricted Business in the Restricted Area. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section
3.3 shall prevent or restrict Stockholder from (i) owning, as a passive investment, five percent (5%) or less of the outstanding shares
of capital stock of a public corporation that is engaged or participates in a Restricted Business, so long as Stockholder is not otherwise
associated with such corporation and does not have the ability to, and does not seek to exercise any, control or otherwise influence the
management or operations of such corporation, (ii) investing in any fund or other investment vehicle in which Stockholder has no discretion
with respect to the investment strategy of such fund, (iii) performing any services for Parent, Purchaser, the Company Entities or any
of their respective Subsidiaries, or (iv) performing services that neither relate to nor assist a Restricted Business in any respect.
5
Section 3.4
Non-Disparagement. Stockholder agrees that, following the Closing through the Restricted Period, Stockholder will not,
and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, disparage or criticize Purchaser, Parent, any of its Affiliates
(including the Company Entities), or any of their respective management, businesses, products or services, or otherwise do or say anything
that would reasonably be expected to materially harm the interests or reputation of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the
Company Entities). This Section 3.4 does not, in any way, restrict or impede Stockholder from complying with any applicable Law
or regulations or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized Governmental Entity; provided that such compliance
does not exceed that required by applicable Law.
Section 3.5
Confidentiality.
(a)
Stockholder agrees that, following the Closing, it will not, and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly,
use Confidential Information or disclose Confidential Information to any Person, except as may be permitted pursuant to Section 3.5(b).
The obligations of Stockholder under this Section 3.5 shall continue, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes
a trade secret under applicable Law, for so long as such information remains a trade secret, and, with respect to all other Confidential
Information, during the Restricted Period (as defined below).
(b)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement prevents at any time (i) the furnishing of any information to any
Governmental Entity, as required by Law, in which circumstance the disclosing party will consult with Purchaser in advance to the extent
practicable and in any event will, to the extent permitted by Law, notify Purchaser as soon as practicable; (ii) in the case of a
Stockholder that is a corporation, limited partnership, limited liability company, investment fund, venture capital fund or other entity,
the furnishing of information relating to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and Transactions to any current or former stockholders,
partners, investors, directors, managers, members, agents, advisors, consultants or representatives that have an economic interest in
Stockholder, current or prospective partner of any partnership or any subsequent partnership under common investment management, or any
limited partner, general partner, member, management company, stockholder, or parent or sister company of Stockholder (or any employee,
advisor, consultant or representative of any of the foregoing), in each case solely to the extent necessary to comply with any fiduciary
or reporting obligations or under Stockholder’s customary investor communications practices to such persons; provided that
any recipient of information pursuant to this clause (ii) is bound by a duty of confidentiality towards Stockholder with respect
to such information; (iii) disclosing information or terms of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document or
any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby as reasonably necessary to enforce or defend against any claim under this Agreement,
the Merger Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, or any other instruments, certificates and other agreements to which Stockholder
is a party; (iv) the furnishing of information to attorneys and other professional advisors, including tax advisors, or representatives
for Stockholder (including the Securityholders’ Representative) or any managers, directors, officers or employees of such Stockholder
or such Stockholder’s controlled Affiliates, in each case that need to know such information in connection with Stockholder’s
financial or tax reporting obligations or the enforcement of Stockholder’s rights under this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or
any other Transaction Document (as applicable); provided that any recipient of information pursuant to this clause (iv)
is bound by a duty of confidentiality towards Stockholder with respect to such information; (v) the disclosure of any information
that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an act or omission by Stockholder (or an act or omission
of a third party at the request of or on behalf of Stockholder); (vi) disclosure of information that is reasonably necessary in connection
with the performance of Stockholder’s duties as an employee of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates and is not otherwise restricted
by any other obligation of confidentiality Stockholder has as such employee; and (vii) the disclosure of information if such disclosure
is consented to in writing by Purchaser prior to such disclosure.
(c)
Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser would be damaged irreparably if any provision of this Section 3.5 were
breached by Stockholder. Accordingly, Stockholder agrees that, in addition to any other remedy available at law or in equity, Purchaser
will be entitled to an injunction to prevent breaches, and to enforce specifically the provisions, of this Section 3.5.
6
Section 3.6
Acknowledgement of Reasonableness. Stockholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) the restrictions set forth in
this Article III are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Purchaser, the Company, and their
respective Affiliates, including the goodwill and Confidential Information of the Company and its Affiliates; (b) Stockholder has received,
or will receive, adequate and valuable consideration for the obligations contained in this Article III in the form of the Per Share
Merger Consideration payable to Stockholder pursuant to the Merger Agreement; (c) the restrictions set forth in this Article III

and (d) Stockholder has had the opportunity to consult with legal counsel regarding the terms and conditions of this Article III.
Article

management or operation of the business and affairs of the Company, or any act, omission, event, or occurrence prior to the Closing relating
to (x) the Company, (y) any Company Securities held by Stockholder, or (z) any rights or interests in any other securities of the Company
(including any Company Options and Company Warrants) including, without limitation, a breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the

or (f) any defenses, affirmative defenses, rights of setoff, counterclaims or similar rights that a Releasor may assert in response to
any Action initiated or claim asserted against such Releasor by any Releasee. It is the intention of Stockholder in executing this release,
and in giving and receiving the consideration called for in the Merger Agreement, that the release contained in this Section 4.1
shall be effective as a full and final accord and satisfaction and general release of and from all matters released hereunder and the
final resolution by Stockholder and the Releasees of all such matters. Stockholder hereby represents to the Releasees that neither Stockholder,
nor its controlled Affiliates or trustees have voluntarily or involuntarily assigned or transferred or purported to assign or transfer

Article
V
REMEDIES
Section 5.1
Specific Performance. Stockholder agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the provisions of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the restrictive covenants set forth in Article III) are not performed by Stockholder
in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction
or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Stockholder and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
The foregoing rights are in addition to and without limitation of any other remedy to which Purchaser may be entitled at law or in equity.
Stockholder further agrees not to assert that a remedy of specific performance is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable
for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. Stockholder hereby waives (a) any defenses
in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate, and (b) any requirement under any
Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. Stockholder further agrees that, by seeking the
remedies provided for in this Section 5.1, Purchaser shall not in any respect waive its right to seek at any time any other form
of relief that may be available to it under this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, or any other Transaction Document (including monetary
damages), in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 5.1 are not available or otherwise are not granted.
Section 5.2
Judicial Modification. If any court of competent jurisdiction shall at any time determine that any of the covenants
contained in Article III or elsewhere in this Agreement exceed the time, geographic area, or scope of activity limitations permitted
by applicable Law, then the court may reduce such limitations to those that such court deems reasonable and enforceable under the circumstances
then existing, and the covenants shall be reformed to cover the maximum time period, geographic area, and scope of activity that may be
enforceable under applicable Law. The parties hereto expressly agree that it is their intention that the covenants set forth in this Agreement
be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, and that the court shall reform, rather than void, any covenant that is
found to be overly broad or otherwise unenforceable. Each covenant set forth in Article III shall be deemed to be a series of separate
covenants, one for each applicable jurisdiction, county, city, state, or other political subdivision in the Restricted Area.
Section 5.3
Third-Party Beneficiary Enforcement Rights. Purchaser’s Affiliates are intended third-party beneficiaries of this
Agreement and shall have the right to enforce the provisions hereof directly against Stockholder. Stockholder’s obligations under
this Agreement shall not be excused, reduced, or otherwise limited by reason of any claimed breach by Purchaser, the Company, or any of
their respective Affiliates of any obligation to Stockholder under this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, or otherwise. Stockholder shall
not circumvent or attempt to circumvent the obligations set forth in this Agreement by taking actions through any new entity, Affiliate,
or other Person that Stockholder would be prohibited from taking directly.

not affect or invalidate any other provision of this Agreement.

· RadNet and ONRAD management will host a conference call and webcast to
discuss the transaction in more detail on Tuesday, October 27
LOS ANGELES, October 26, 2026 — RadNet, Inc. (NASDAQ:
RDNT) (“RadNet” or the “Company”), a national leader in providing high-quality, cost-effective outpatient diagnostic
imaging services and a global developer of digital health solutions, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire ONRAD, Inc. (ONRAD). ONRAD, through its more than 130 contracted radiologists, is a provider of teleradiology and in-hospital
professional radiology staffing services for hospitals, health systems and other diagnostic imaging sites of care. The transaction is
expected to close in early 2027 and is subject to customary regulatory review and closing conditions. Upon closing, ONRAD shareholders
will receive a cash payment of $350 million and 5 million shares of RadNet, Inc. common stock, subject to customary adjustments. In addition,
an earnout of up to $210 million in value will be payable upon achievement of target EBITDA for 2027. The earnout is payable in cash,
RadNet common stock, or a combination thereof, at RadNet’s election.
“This is the next step in building an imaging company with comprehensive
solutions that brings technology, radiology professional services and imaging operations together to address some of healthcare’s
most pressing challenges and needs,” said Dr. Howard Berger, President and CEO of RadNet. “Connecting RadNet’s established
AI-enabled digital health technology and imaging center operational expertise with ONRAD’s teleradiology and professional staffing
solutions unites the capabilities needed to address the entire continuum of diagnostic imaging under one company. The acquisition will
enhance RadNet’s portfolio of solutions for hospitals and health systems, outpatient freestanding centers, urgent care facilities,
freestanding emergency departments and physician offices.”
Dr. Berger continued, “I welcome ONRAD’s executive team,
its contracted radiologists and all other ONRAD team members into the RadNet family. This transaction is a significant additional step
in leading our industry forward and demonstrating the impact that a transformation to workflow solutions in diagnostic imaging can have
in advancing early detection, population health and improved patient outcomes.”

Through its contracted radiologists, ONRAD provides remote teleradiology
final-read interpretations across many healthcare settings and in-hospital professional radiology staffing services, including interventional
radiology, for hospitals and health systems. Upon closing, ONRAD will become the foundation for RadNet’s third reportable operating
segment, Radiology Professional Services. With the addition of this third operating segment, RadNet becomes a comprehensive radiology
services and solutions provider, addressing the imaging continuum across the full range of care settings, including hospitals, freestanding
ambulatory outpatient centers, primary and specialty care physician offices and standalone urgent care and emergency department facilities.
Strategic Rationale
·
Connects
three complementary businesses to provide comprehensive imaging solutions. Combining RadNet outpatient imaging operations and
DeepHealth AI-enabled digital health solutions with the ONRAD radiology professional services platform will bring together comprehensive
expertise in the diagnostic imaging industry within one company. Integrating these capabilities for customers and partners across
all diagnostic imaging settings is expected to create efficiencies, improve patient care and lower costs in an unequaled approach.
·
Expands RadNet into hospital-based radiology. Hospitals and
health systems account for more than 50% of U.S. diagnostic imaging volume.(2) ONRAD will provide RadNet with an established
platform to support in-hospital and remote professional radiology interpretation services while also expanding the RadNet offerings to
its existing joint venture partners.
·
Addresses growing market
demand. U.S. imaging demand growth is outpacing the supply of trained radiologists. With ONRAD, RadNet will be positioned to
further help address this gap by integrating AI-enabled technology with teleradiology and professional staffing services, creating
opportunities to transform workflows, support case prioritization and better match interpretation capacity to demand.
·
Adds a fast-growing,
high-margin capital-light business. ONRAD has demonstrated consistent annual revenue growth between 10% and 20% over the last
several years with Adjusted EBITDA(1) margins exceeding 30%. RadNet believes ONRAD will require very little capital to
maintain and grow organically.
“For 20 years, ONRAD has built long-standing relationships with
hospitals and health systems delivering reliable, high-quality radiology coverage,” said Dave Engert, President and CEO of ONRAD.
“Joining RadNet not only gives us the scale, resources and technology to meet the growing needs of our current and prospective customers,
but it also enables us to offer a unique imaging model that addresses the full continuum of care from outpatient imaging centers to the
acute care environment. The potential to further meet the ever-increasing demand for imaging services along with improving patient outcomes
is what excites me most about our future together.”

materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, including (i) the risk that the conditions to the closing of
the transaction, including required regulatory approvals, are not satisfied or waived on a timely basis or at all, and the risk that the

No Offer or Solicitation
This press release is for informational purposes only and shall not

(1)The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, each from continuing operations and adjusted for losses or gains on the sale of equipment,
other income or loss, debt extinguishments and non-cash equity compensation. Adjusted EBITDA includes equity earnings in unconsolidated
operations and subtracts allocations of earnings to non-controlling interests in subsidiaries, and is adjusted for non-cash or extraordinary
and one-time events taken place during the period.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used as analytical
indicator by RadNet management and the healthcare industry to assess business performance, and is a measure of leverage capacity and ability
to service debt. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded
from Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net income, cash flows generated by operating, investing
or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial
performance or liquidity. As Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is therefore susceptible to varying
methods of calculation, this metric, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The Company’s guidance or target for ONRAD’s addition to
Adjusted EBITDA is also a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or otherwise has been adjusted for non-GAAP adjustment items from the
Company’s GAAP financial statements. When the Company provides guidance or its target for ONRAD’s addition to Adjusted EBITDA,
it does not provide a reconciliation of the GAAP measure as it is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact
of the non-GAAP adjustment items. By their very nature, non-GAAP adjustment items are difficult to anticipate with precision because they
are generally associated with unexpected and unplanned events that impact the Company and its financial results. Therefore, the Company
is unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures without unreasonable efforts.
