AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT
This Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of November 26, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), by and among:
(i) | New Remedy Corp., a Delaware corporation and the successor-in-interest to Remedy Opco (as defined below) (the “Company”); |
(ii) | Remedy Acquisition, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (together with its Permitted Transferees who become party hereto after the Effective Date, the “Lead Investors”); |
(iii) | each of the investors designated as an “Other Investor” on Schedule I hereto and such other Persons who from time to time after the Effective Date become party hereto by executing a Counterpart Signature page hereof in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto or such other form as may be designated by the Board (a “Counterpart Signature Page”) and who are designated by the Board as “Other Investors” (each, and together with its or their Permitted Transferees who become party hereto after the Effective Date, each an “Other Investor” and, collectively the “Other Investors”); and |
(iv) | each of the investors designated as a “Manager” on Schedule I and such other Persons who from time to time after the Effective Date become party hereto by executing a Counterpart Signature Page and who are designated by the Board as “Managers” (each, and together with its or their Permitted Transferees who become party hereto after the Effective Date, “Managers” and together with the Lead Investors and the Other Investors, the “Stockholders”). For the avoidance of doubt, a Stockholder shall be treated as an Other Investor with respect to certain shares of Common Stock (or any class or series thereof) (as defined below) held by such Stockholder as of the Effective Date or subsequently in such capacity, and a Manager with respect to other shares of Common Stock (or any class or series thereof) held by such Stockholder as of the Effective Date or subsequently in such capacity. |
Recitals
1. On January 15, 2019, Remedy Partners, Inc., a Delaware corporation to be converted in connection herewith into a limited liability company named “Remedy Partners, LLC” (“Remedy Opco”), and the Persons who were then stockholders of Remedy Opco entered into the Stockholders’ Agreement of Remedy Opco (the “Predecessor Stockholders’ Agreement”).
2. On the Effective Date, as part of the transactions contemplated by that certain Combination Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2019, by and between Remedy Opco and Cure TopCo, LLC, a Delaware corporation formerly known as Chloe Ox Holdings, LLC (“Cure TopCo”) (the “Combination Agreement”), Remedy Opco assigned the Predecessor Stockholders’ Agreement to the Company and the Company assumed the Predecessor Stockholders’ Agreement from Remedy Opco.
3. In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement, the Majority Lead Investors (as defined below) and the Majority Other Investors (as defined below), each acting pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 11.2 of the Predecessor Stockholders’ Agreement, desire to amend and restate the Predecessor Stockholders’ Agreement to set forth herein their agreements on certain matters relating to, among other things, the governance of the Company and the rights and obligations of the Stockholders.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree that the Predecessor Stockholders’ Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. DEFINITIONS.
1.1. Definitions. Certain terms are used in this Agreement as specifically defined herein. These definitions are set forth or referred to in Section 12 hereof.
2. VOTING AGREEMENT.
2.1. Size of the Board of Directors. Each Stockholder hereby agrees to cast all votes to which such Stockholder is entitled in respect of the Shares, whether at any annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, to fix the initial number of members of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) at seven (7) members as set forth in Section 2.2. below, and subsequently as the members of the Board may be increased or decreased (subject to Sections 7.1.10 and 7.2.1). The number of authorized members of the Board may not be increased or decreased after the Effective Date unless approved by the Majority Lead Investors and a Majority of the Minority Holders.
2.2. Election of Directors. Each Stockholder hereby agrees to cast all votes to which such Stockholder is entitled in respect of the Shares, whether at any annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, to elect to the Board:
2.2.1. A number of persons designated by the Majority Lead Investors to serve as Directors (the “Lead Investor Directors”) such that the Lead Investor Directors constitute a majority of the directors on the Board (there shall initially be four (4) Lead Investor Directors, which persons shall be Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx); and
2
2.2.2. A number of persons designated to serve as Directors (the “Other Investor Directors”) by (A) prior to the date upon which any of the Remedy Founders Group or the LHP Holding Group ceases to beneficially own in the aggregate at least thirty three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Equivalent Shares owned by them on the Effective Date, by a vote of the Remedy Founders (on behalf of the Remedy Founders Group) and LHP Holding (on behalf of the LHP Holding Group), with 50% of such vote held by each of the Remedy Founders Group and the LHP Holding Group, and (B) following the date on which either of the Remedy Founders Group or the LHP Holding Group ceases to beneficially own in the aggregate at least thirty three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Equivalent Shares owned by them on the Effective Date, the holders of at least sixty percent (60%) of the shares of capital stock of the Company (calculated on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) not held by the Lead Investors, such that the number of Other Investor Directors represents a minority of the directors on the Board, but is otherwise proportionate to the ownership of the Other Investors as compared to the Lead Investors (there shall initially be three (3) Other Investor Directors, which persons shall initially be Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxx); provided, that in the event that the size of the Board is decreased and as a result there are less than three (3) Other Investor Directors, the Majority Other Investors shall be entitled to appoint a number of non-voting observers to the Board (each, an “Other Investor Board Observer”) such that the total number of Other Investor Directors when combined with the total number of Other Investor Board Observers is no less than three (3). Each Other Investor Board Observer shall be entitled to receive timely invitations to, and attend, all meetings of the Board and, in this respect, the Company shall give each such Other Investor Board Observer copies of all notices, minutes, consents, and other materials that it provides to its directors at the same time and in the same manner as provided to such directors; provided, however, that such representative shall agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a fiduciary manner with respect to all information so provided; and provided further, that the Company reserves the right to withhold any information and to exclude any Other Investor Board Observer from any meeting or portion thereof if access to such information or attendance at such meeting would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel or result in disclosure of trade secrets or a material conflict of interest.
No Director elected pursuant to this Section 2.2 may be removed from office unless such removal is directed or approved by the affirmative vote of the Persons entitled to designate such Director pursuant to this Section 2.2. If any Director shall cease for any reason to serve as a Director, the vacancy resulting thereby shall be filled by another person selected by the affirmative vote of the Persons entitled to designate such Director pursuant to this Section 2.2.
2.3. Director Expenses. The Company shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Directors (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Lead Investor Directors) and the Other Investor Board Observers in connection with (a) attending the meetings of the Board and all committees thereof, as the case may be, (b) in the case of Directors, attending the meetings of any board of directors, board of managers or similar governing body, as the case may be, of any subsidiary of the Company and all committees thereof, and (c) in the case of Directors, conducting any other Company business.
3
2.4. Significant Transactions. Each Stockholder agrees to cast all votes to which such Stockholder is entitled in respect of the Shares, whether at any annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, in the same proportion as Lead Investor Shares are voted by the Lead Investors (in each case, calculated on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) to approve any sale, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization or any other transaction or series of transactions involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries (or all or any portion of their respective assets) in connection with, or in furtherance of, the exercise by the Majority Lead Investors of their rights under Section 4.2.
2.5. Consent to Amendment. Subject in all events to the terms of this Agreement, each Stockholder agrees to cast all votes to which such Stockholder is entitled in respect of the Shares, whether at any annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, in the same proportion as Lead Investor Shares are voted by the Majority Lead Investors to increase the number of authorized shares of Senior Convertible Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock (or any class or series thereof), as the case may be, to the extent necessary to permit the Company to comply with the provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation; provided, that no such obligation shall apply unless the underlying transaction or amendment is also approved by a Majority of the Minority Holders.
2.6. The Company. The Company agrees not to give effect to any action by any Stockholder or any other Person that is in contravention of this Section 2.
2.7. Period. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2 will expire (a) with respect to Section 2.2.1, on the NMC Release Date, (b) with respect to Section 2.2.2, on the Other Investor Release Date, and (c) with respect to Section 2 in its entirety, on the earlier of (i) the Release Date, (ii) the last date permitted by applicable law and (iii) immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement in connection with an Initial Public Offering (but subject to the consummation of such Initial Public Offering).
3. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. No Stockholder will Transfer any of such Stockholder’s Shares to any other Person except as provided in this Section 3.
3.1. Permitted Transferees.
3.1.1. Estate Planning. Following the delivery to the Company of written notice, any Stockholder who is a natural person may Transfer any or all of such Stockholder’s Shares (a) by gift to, or for the benefit of, any Members of the Immediate Family of such Stockholder, (b) to a trust (or limited liability company, partnership or other estate planning vehicle) for the sole benefit of such Stockholder and/or any Members of the Immediate Family of such Stockholder, or (c) to any other trust (or limited liability company, partnership or other estate planning vehicle) in respect of which such Stockholder serves as trustee (or as managing member, manager, general partner or otherwise, as applicable); provided, that for purposes of subsections (b) or (c) above, the trust instrument governing such trust (or limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement, as applicable) must provide that such Stockholder, as trustee (or managing member, manager, general partner or otherwise, as applicable), must retain control over the voting and disposition of such Shares until the termination of the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement.
4
3.1.2. Upon Death. Upon the death of any Stockholder who is a natural person, such Stockholder’s Shares may be distributed by the will or other instrument taking effect at death of such Stockholder or by applicable laws of descent and distribution to such Stockholder’s estate, executors, administrators and personal representatives, and then to such Stockholder’s heirs, legatees or distributees, whether or not such recipients are Members of the Immediate Family of such Stockholder.
3.1.3. Additional Permitted Transfers by the Lead Investors. Any Lead Investor may Transfer any or all of its Lead Investor Shares (a) to such Lead Investor’s partners, members, managers or stockholders, as applicable, pursuant to a liquidation or winding up of such Lead Investor or otherwise pursuant to a pro rata distribution-in-kind by such Lead Investor, in each case, in accordance with the organizational documents of such Lead Investor, (b) to one or more Affiliates of such Lead Investor, or (c) with the prior written consent of the Majority Other Investors.
3.1.4. Additional Permitted Transfers by Other Investors. Any Other Investor that is an entity may Transfer any or all Shares to such Other Investor’s partners, members, managers or stockholders, as applicable, pursuant to a liquidation or winding up of such Other Investor or otherwise pursuant to a distribution-in-kind by such Other Investor.
Any Shares Transferred in accordance with this Section 3.1 will remain Lead Investor Shares, Other Investor Shares or Management Shares, as the case may be, and will be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Shares. No Transfer shall be permitted under the terms of this Section 3.1, and any Transfer permitted under the terms of this Section 3.1 shall not be effective, unless the transferee of such Shares (each, a “Permitted Transferee”) has delivered to the Company a written acknowledgment and agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such Permitted Transferee will be bound by, and be a party to, this Agreement and the Company Registration Rights Agreement as the holder of Lead Investor Shares, Other Investor Shares and/or Management Shares hereunder, as the case may be and in accordance with the prior sentence; provided, that no Transfer by any Stockholder to a Permitted Transferee will relieve such Stockholder of any of his, her or its obligations under this Agreement. In connection with any Transfer by a Stockholder (other than a Lead Investor) pursuant to Sections 3.1.1, 3.1.2 or 3.1.4, such Stockholder shall provide written notice to the Company of such Transfer not less than ten (10) business days prior to effecting such Transfer, which notice shall state the name and address of each Permitted Transferee to whom such Transfer is proposed to be made, the relationship of such Permitted Transferee to the Transferring Stockholder, and the number of Shares proposed to be Transferred to such Permitted Transferee. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, except in connection with a Drag Along Transaction pursuant to Section 4.2, no Transfer of Shares may be made by any Stockholder to any Person who directly or indirectly competes with the business of the Company, as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Board, without the prior approval of the Board; provided, that no Person shall be deemed to compete with the business of the Company solely by reason of such Person’s ownership of five percent (5%) or less of the voting securities of a publically traded entity that competes with the business of the Company.
5
3.2. Tag-Along, Drag-Along, Major Investor Group Transfers. In addition to Transfers permitted under Section 3.1, and otherwise subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement:
(a) any Lead Investor may Transfer all or any portion of the Lead Investor Shares if such Lead Investor has complied with the “tag along” provisions contained in Section 4.1; provided, that no Lead Investor may Transfer Lead Investor Shares to any such Person hereunder unless such Lead Investor and its Affiliates who directly or indirectly hold Units of Cure TopCo also simultaneously Transfer to such Person the percentage of such Units that is equal to the percentage of the Lead Investor Shares held by the transferring Lead Investor that are being Transferred (and all on substantially the same terms and conditions);
(b) any Lead Investor may Transfer all or any portion of the Lead Investor Shares if the Majority Lead Investors have exercised their “drag along” rights set forth in Section 4.2;
(c) any other Stockholder may Transfer any or all of such Stockholder’s Shares in accordance with the provisions, terms and conditions of Section 4.1, Section 4.2 or Section 4.3;

(e) any Lead Investor may Transfer Shares to the Company pursuant to Section 5.2.4.
Unless otherwise specified in writing by the Board, (i) any Shares Transferred in accordance with Section 4.1 or 4.2 shall immediately and automatically become (and the Prospective Buyer will receive) Other Investor Shares, (ii) any Shares Transferred to any Lead Investor pursuant to Section 4.3 shall thereafter become Lead Investor Shares hereunder and (iii) any Shares Transferred to the Company pursuant to this Agreement will conclusively be deemed thereafter not to be Shares under this Agreement and not to be subject to any of the provisions hereof or entitled to the benefit of any of the provisions hereof, other than any rights pursuant to Section 5 in connection with any reissuance thereof.
3.3. Restrictions on Certain Other Investors that are Entities.
3.3.1. Current Ownership. Each of Remedy Founders, LHP Holding and the Lead Investor, hereby severally, and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company that Schedule II-A (with respect to Remedy Founders), Schedule II-B (with respect to LHP Holding) or Schedule II-B (with respect to Lead Investor), as applicable, contains a list that is true and correct in all material respects of such Person’s shareholders, limited partners or members, as applicable, as of the Effective Date.
6
3.3.2. Beneficial Owners. Each of Remedy Founders and LHP Holding severally, and not jointly, agrees that it will not, from and after the Effective Date, without the approval of the Board (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (a) issue any membership interests or other equity or beneficial interests to any Person that is not a member or other equity or beneficial interest holder of such entity as of the Effective Date or (b) amend, waive, repeal or otherwise alter or modify any provision of its certificate of formation, operating agreement or other organizational document, or other agreement entered into or binding with respect to any Transfer of any such membership interests or other equity or beneficial interests.
3.3.3. No Change of Control. Each of Remedy Founders, LHP Holding and Lead Investor severally, and not jointly, agrees that any rights specific to such Person in this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect upon any direct or indirect change of control of such Person after the Effective Date (for the avoidance of doubt, all obligations of such Person pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in effect).
3.4. Impermissible Transfer. Any attempted Transfer of Shares not permitted under the terms of this Section 3 will be null and void, and the Company will not in any way give effect to any such impermissible Transfer.
3.5. Other Restrictions on Transfer. The restrictions on Transfer contained in this Agreement are in addition to any other restrictions on Transfer to which a Stockholder may be subject, including any restrictions on transfer contained in any equity incentive plan, restricted stock agreement, stock option agreement, stock subscription agreement or other agreement to which such Stockholder is a party or instrument by which such Stockholder has agreed to be bound. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, prior to the consummation of an Initial Public Offering, each Stockholder agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, Transfer any of its Shares: (a) except as permitted under the Securities Act and other applicable federal or state securities or blue sky laws; (b) if such Transfer would cause the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; or (c) if such Transfer would cause the assets of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to be deemed “plan assets” as defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or its accompanying regulations or result in any “prohibited transaction” thereunder involving the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.
3.6. Period. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3 will expire on the earlier of (a) the Release Date and (b) immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement in connection with an Initial Public Offering (but subject to the consummation of such Initial Public Offering).
7
4. INVESTOR TRANSFER RIGHTS; “TAG ALONG” AND “DRAG ALONG” RIGHTS.
4.1. Tag Along. If one or more holders of Lead Investor Shares (each such holder, a “Prospective Selling Investor”) proposes to Sell any such Shares to any Prospective Buyer in a transaction (a) to which the terms of Sections 3.1, 3.2(b) or 3.2(e) do not apply, and (b) in connection with which the Majority Lead Investors have not elected to exercise their “drag along” rights under Section 4.2:
4.1.1. Notice. The Prospective Selling Investors will deliver a written notice (the “Tag Along Notice”) to each other Stockholder holding Senior Convertible Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock (or any class or series thereof) as of the date of the Tag Along Notice (each, a “Tag Along Holder”) at least ten (10) business days prior to such proposed Transfer. The Tag Along Notice must include:
(a) The principal terms of the proposed Sale insofar as it relates to such Shares, including (i) the number and class(es) of the Shares to be purchased from the Prospective Selling Investors, (ii) the fraction, expressed as a percentage, determined by dividing the number of Shares (on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) to be purchased from the Prospective Selling Investors by the total number of Lead Investor Shares (on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) held by the Lead Investors immediately prior to the consummation of such Sale (the “Tag Along Sale Percentage”), (iii) the per share purchase price or the formula by which such price is to be determined and (iv) the name and address of the Prospective Buyer; and
(b) An invitation to each Tag Along Holder to make an offer to include in the proposed Sale to the applicable Prospective Buyer an additional number of Shares held by such Tag Along Holder (not in any event to exceed the Tag Along Sale Percentage of the total number of Shares held by such Tag Along Holder), on the same terms and conditions (subject to Section 4.3), with respect to each Share sold, as the Prospective Selling Investors shall sell each of their Shares.
4.1.2. Exercise. Within ten (10) business days after the effectiveness of the Tag Along Notice, each Tag Along Holder desiring to make an offer to include issued, outstanding and vested Shares in the proposed Sale (each a “Tag Along Participating Seller” and, together with the Prospective Selling Investors, collectively, the “Tag Along Sellers”) shall furnish a written notice (the “Tag Along Offer”) to the Prospective Selling Investors offering to include an additional number of Shares (not in any event to exceed the Tag Along Sale Percentage of the total number of Shares held by such Tag Along Participating Seller) that such Tag Along Participating Seller desires to have included in the proposed Sale. Each Tag Along Holder who does not accept the Prospective Selling Investors’ invitation to make an offer to include Shares in the proposed Sale will be deemed to have waived all rights with respect to such Sale, and the Tag Along Sellers will thereafter be free to sell to the Prospective Buyer, at a per share price no greater than 110% of the per share price set forth in the Tag Along Notice, and on other principal terms that are not materially more favorable to the Tag Along Sellers than those set forth in the Tag Along Notice, without any further obligation to such non-accepting Tag Along Holder.
8
4.1.3. Irrevocable Offer. The offer of each Tag Along Participating Seller contained in his, her or its Tag Along Offer will be irrevocable, and, to the extent such offer is accepted, such Tag Along Participating Seller will be bound and obligated to sell in the proposed Sale on the same terms and conditions, with respect to each Share sold (subject to Section 4.3.3), as the Prospective Selling Investors, up to such number of Shares as such Tag Along Participating Seller shall have specified in his, her or its Tag Along Offer; provided, that if the principal terms of the proposed Sale change with the result that the per share price becomes less than 90% of the per share price set forth in the Tag Along Notice or the other principal terms are materially less favorable to the Tag Along Sellers than those set forth in the Tag Along Notice, then each Tag Along Participating Seller will be permitted to withdraw the offer contained in such Tag Along Participating Seller’s Tag Along Offer and be released from his, her or its obligations thereunder.
4.1.4. Reduction of Shares Sold. The Prospective Selling Investors shall obtain the inclusion in the proposed Sale of the entire number of Shares that each of the Tag Along Sellers requests to have included in the Sale (as evidenced in the case of the Prospective Selling Investors by the Tag Along Notice and in the case of each Tag Along Participating Seller by such Tag Along Participating Seller’s Tag Along Offer). In the event the Prospective Selling Investors are unable to obtain the inclusion of such entire number of Shares in the proposed Sale, the number of Shares to be sold in the proposed Sale will be allocated among the Tag Along Sellers in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of Shares which each Tag Along Seller properly requested to be included in the proposed Sale.
4.1.5. Treatment of Options, Warrants and Convertible Securities. A Tag Along Holder may not include Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities in a Sale of Shares pursuant to this Section 4.1.
4.1.6. Additional Compliance. If prior to consummation, the terms of the proposed Sale change with the result that the per share price to be paid in such proposed Sale becomes greater than 110% of the per share price set forth in the Tag Along Notice or the other principal terms of such proposed Sale are materially more favorable to the Tag Along Sellers than those set forth in the Tag Along Notice, then the Tag Along Notice will be null and void, and a separate Tag Along Notice must be furnished, and the terms and provisions of this Section 4.1 separately complied with, in order to consummate such proposed Sale pursuant to this Section 4.1; provided, that in the case of such a separate Tag Along Notice, the applicable period to which reference is made in Sections 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 will be the greater of (a) five (5) business days and (b) the remaining period under the initial Tag Along Notice for such Sale.
9
4.1.7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.1, no Lead Investor may Transfer Lead Investor Shares to any Person under this Section 4.1 unless such Lead Investor and its Affiliates who directly or indirectly hold Units also simultaneously Transfer to such Person the percentage of such Units that is equal to the percentage of the Lead Investor Shares held by the transferring Lead Investor that are being Transferred (and all on substantially the same terms and conditions).
4.2. Lead Investor Drag Along. Each Stockholder hereby agrees, if requested by the Majority Lead Investors, to Transfer (whether through a direct Sale or Transfer of Shares or indirectly by means of conversion of Shares through a merger or similar transaction) the same percentage of such Stockholder’s Shares, calculated on an as-converted to Common Stock basis (the “Drag Along Sale Percentage”), directly or indirectly, that is proposed to be Transferred by holders of Lead Investor Shares (each such holder, a “Prospective Selling Stockholder”) in a transaction or series of related transactions that (a) would (after giving effect to this Section 4.2) constitute a Change of Control or (b) are otherwise approved by the Majority Other Investors (a “Drag Along Transaction”), in each case, in the manner and on the terms set forth in this Section 4.2.
4.2.1. Exercise. If the Majority Lead Investors elect to exercise their rights under this Section 4.2, the Prospective Selling Stockholder must furnish a written notice (the “Drag Along Notice”) to each other Stockholder. The Drag Along Notice must set forth the principal terms of the proposed Drag Along Transaction insofar as it relates to such Shares including (a) the number and class of Shares to be acquired from the Prospective Selling Stockholders, (b) the Drag Along Sale Percentage, (c) the consideration to be received in the proposed Drag Along Transaction to the extent known at the time of the issuance of the Drag Along Notice and (d) the written commitment of the Majority Lead Investors that it or they will not receive any consideration for such Transfer unless such consideration is offered to the other Stockholders on the same terms and conditions. If the Prospective Selling Stockholders consummate the proposed Drag Along Transaction to which reference is made in the Drag Along Notice, each other Stockholder (each a “Drag Along Participating Seller”, and, together with the Prospective Selling Stockholders, collectively, the “Drag Along Sellers”) shall be bound and obligated to Transfer the Drag Along Sale Percentage of his, her or its Shares in the proposed Drag Along Transaction on the same terms and conditions, with respect to each Share sold, as the Prospective Selling Stockholders shall Transfer their Lead Investor Shares in the Drag Along Transaction (subject to Section 4.4).
4.2.2. Waiver of Appraisal Rights. Each Drag Along Seller agrees not to seek, demand or exercise appraisal, dissenters’ or similar rights under any applicable business corporation statute or other law (including Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) with respect to a transaction subject to this Section 4.2, whether or not such rights are otherwise available.
10
4.2.3. Treatment of Options, Warrants and Convertible Securities. Any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities that are exercisable or become exercisable in connection with a Drag Along Transaction pursuant this Section 4.2 shall be subject to the provisions of the agreements and plan documents pursuant to which such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities were issued, and to the extent that any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities (i) are not exercisable or do not become exercisable in connection with a Drag Along Transaction pursuant this Section 4.2 and (ii) do not terminate in connection with any such Sale pursuant to such agreements and plan documents, then, notwithstanding the provisions of such agreements and plan documents, such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities shall terminate upon such Drag Along Transaction. Subject to the preceding sentence, each Drag Along Participating Seller agrees that to the extent any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities are included in any Transfer of Shares pursuant to this Section 4.2, such Drag Along Participating Seller will be deemed to have exercised, converted or exchanged such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities immediately prior to the closing of such Drag Along Transaction to the extent necessary to Transfer Common Stock to the Prospective Buyer, except to the extent permitted under the terms of any such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security and agreed to by the Prospective Buyer. If any Drag Along Participating Seller Transfers any Option, Warrant or Convertible Security in any Drag Along Transaction pursuant to this Section 4.2, such Drag Along Participating Seller will receive in exchange for each such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security consideration equal to the amount (if greater than zero) determined by multiplying (a) (x) the purchase price per share implied by such Drag Along Transaction of the underlying class or series of Shares into which such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security is exercisable into less (y) the exercise price, if any, per share of such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security by (b) the number of such class or series of Shares issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security (to the extent exercisable, convertible or exchangeable at the time of such Drag Along Transaction), subject to reduction for any tax or other amounts required to be withheld under applicable law.
4.2.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.2, the Majority Lead Investors shall not exercise rights under this Section 4.2, and a transaction shall not be treated as a Drag Along Transaction, unless the Majority Lead Investors and their Affiliates who directly or indirectly hold Units of Cure TopCo also simultaneously exercise an Approved Company Sale under Section 12.2 of the Cure TopCo LLCA with respect to such transaction and sell to the same Person the percentage of such Units that is equal to the Drag Along Sale Percentage (and all on substantially the same terms and conditions).
4.3. Other Investor Drag Along. In the event that the Majority Other Investors desire to Sell all, but not less than all, of the Shares held by such Majority Other Investors (each, a “Prospective Selling Minority Holder”) to the Lead Investors or one or more of their Affiliates, each Stockholder (other than the Lead Investors) shall Transfer (whether through a direct Sale or Transfer of Shares or indirectly by means of conversion of Shares through a merger or similar transaction) all of such Stockholder’s Shares in the manner and on the terms set forth in this Section 4.3 (an “Other Investor Drag Along Transaction”).
11
4.3.1. Exercise. In the event of an Other Investor Drag Along Transaction, the Company shall furnish a written notice (the “Other Investor Drag Along Notice”) to each other Stockholder (other than the Lead Investors). The Other Investor Drag Along Notice shall set forth the principal terms of the proposed Other Investor Drag Along Transaction insofar as it relates to such Shares including (a) the number and class of Shares to be acquired from the Majority Other Investors, and (b) the consideration to be received in the proposed Other Investor Drag Along Transaction to the extent known at the time of the issuance of the Other Investor Drag Along Notice. If the Lead Investors and the Majority Other Investors consummate the proposed Other Investor Drag Along Transaction to which reference is made in the Other Investor Drag Along Notice, each other Stockholder (other than the Lead Investors) (each a “Other Investor Drag Along Participating Seller”, and, together with the Prospective Selling Minority Holders, collectively, the “Other Investor Drag Along Sellers”) shall be bound and obligated to Transfer all, but not less than all, of his, her or its Shares in the proposed Other Investor Drag Along Transaction on the same terms and conditions, with respect to each Share sold, as the Majority Other Investors shall Transfer their Other Investor Shares in the Other Investor Drag Along Transaction (subject to Section 4.4.3).
4.3.2. Waiver of Appraisal Rights. Each Other Investor Drag Along Seller agrees not to seek, demand or exercise appraisal, dissenters’ or similar rights under any applicable business corporation statute or other law (including Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) with respect to a transaction subject to this Section 4.3, whether or not such rights are otherwise available.
4.3.3. Treatment of Options, Warrants and Convertible Securities. Any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities that are exercisable or become exercisable in connection with an Other Investor Drag Along Transaction pursuant this Section 4.3 shall be subject to the provisions of the agreements and plan documents pursuant to which such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities were issued, and to the extent that any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities (i) are not exercisable or do not become exercisable in connection with an Other Investor Drag Along Transaction pursuant this Section 4.3 and (ii) do not terminate in connection with any such Sale pursuant to such agreements and plan documents, then, notwithstanding the provisions of such agreements and plan documents, such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities shall terminate upon such Other Investor Drag Along Transaction. Subject to the preceding sentence, each Other Investor Drag Along Participating Seller agrees that to the extent any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities are included in any Transfer of Shares pursuant to this Section 4.3, such Other Investor Drag Along Participating Seller will be deemed to have exercised, converted or exchanged such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities immediately prior to the closing of such Other Investor Drag Along Transaction to the extent necessary to Transfer Common Stock to the Lead Investors, except to the extent permitted under the terms of any such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security and agreed to by the Lead Investors. If any Other Investor Drag Along Participating Seller Transfers any Option, Warrant or Convertible Security in any Other Investor Drag Along Transaction pursuant to this Section 4.3, such Other Investor Drag Along Participating Seller will receive in exchange for each such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security consideration equal to the amount (if greater than zero) determined by multiplying (a) (x)
12
the purchase price per share of the underlying class or series of Shares into which such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security is exercisable into to be received by the Majority Other Investors in respect of such underlying class or series of Shares in such Other Investor Drag Along Transaction less (y) the exercise price, if any, per share of such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security by (b) the number of shares of such underlying class or series of Shares issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Option, Warrant or Convertible Security (to the extent exercisable, convertible or exchangeable at the time of such Other Investor Drag Along Transaction), subject to reduction for any tax or other amounts required to be withheld under applicable law.
4.4. Miscellaneous. The following provisions apply to any proposed Sale to which Section 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 applies:
4.4.1. Certain Legal Requirements. In the event the consideration to be paid in exchange for Shares in a proposed Sale pursuant to Section 4.1, Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 includes any securities, and the receipt thereof by a Participating Seller would require under applicable law (a) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any Person as a broker or dealer or agent or registrant with respect to such securities where such registration or qualification is not otherwise required for the Sale by the Prospective Selling Investor(s), Prospective Selling Stockholder(s) or Prospective Selling Minority Holder(s), as applicable, or (b) the provision to any Tag Along Seller, Drag Along Seller or Other Investor Drag Along Seller of any additional information regarding the Company or any of its subsidiaries, such securities or the issuer thereof, including by reason of the failure of one or more Stockholders to be an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, such Participating Seller will not have the right to Sell Shares in such proposed Sale. In such event, the Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling Stockholders or Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, as applicable, shall cause to be paid to such Participating Seller in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Shares (in accordance with Section 4.4.5 hereof) which would have otherwise been Sold by such Participating Seller to the Prospective Buyer in the proposed Sale, an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such Shares as of the date such securities would have been issued in exchange for such Shares.
4.4.2. Further Assurances. The Company and each Participating Seller, whether in his, her or its capacity as a Participating Seller, stockholder, officer or director of the Company, or otherwise, will take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or reasonably desirable in order expeditiously to consummate each Transfer or Sale pursuant to Section 4.1, Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 and any related transactions, including executing, acknowledging and delivering consents, assignments, waivers and other documents or instruments; furnishing information and copies of documents; filing applications, reports, returns, filings and other documents or instruments with governmental authorities; complying and agreeing to comply with non-disclosure, exclusive dealing or other preliminary agreements entered into in connection with a proposed Transfer or Sale transaction to which Section 4.1, Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 would apply to the extent the Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling
13
Stockholders or the Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, agree to comply with such arrangements; and otherwise cooperating with the Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling Stockholders or the Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, and the Prospective Buyer; provided, however, that Participating Sellers will be obligated to become liable in respect of any representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities or otherwise to the Prospective Buyer solely to the extent provided in the immediately following sentence; provided, further, that (x) no Participating Seller will be subject to any obligation, arrangement, condition or term of a Drag Along Transaction to which any Lead Investor is not also so subject; and (y) no Stockholder shall be required to enter into any non-competition, employee, customer or other non-solicit or similar restrictive covenant or other business limitation in connection with a Drag Along Transaction to the extent such restrictive covenant or other business limitation is different than the restrictive covenants and other business limitations as set forth in this Agreement and binding on such Stockholder. Each Participating Seller agrees to execute and deliver such agreements as may be reasonably specified by the Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling Stockholders or the Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, to which such Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling Stockholders or Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, will also be party, including agreements to (a) (i) make individual and several representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements as to the unencumbered title to its Shares and the power, authority and legal right to Transfer such Shares and the absence of any Adverse Claim with respect to such Shares, and (ii) be severally liable without limitation as to such individual representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements and (b) be liable (whether by purchase price adjustment, indemnity payments or otherwise) in respect of representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in respect of the Company and its subsidiaries; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of liability described in this clause (b) in connection with any Transfer or Sale of Shares will not exceed the lesser of (i) such Participating Seller’s pro rata portion of any such liability, to be determined in accordance with such Participating Seller’s portion of the total number of Shares (calculated on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) included in such Transfer or Sale and (ii) the proceeds to such Participating Seller in connection with such Transfer or Sale. Each Participating Seller that is not a Major Other Investor hereby constitutes and appoints each of the Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling Stockholders or the Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, or any of them, with full power of substitution, as such Participating Seller’s true and lawful representative and attorney-in-fact, in such Participating Seller’s name, place and stead, to execute and deliver any and all agreements that such Prospective Selling Investor, the Prospective Selling Stockholder or Prospective Selling Minority Holder, as applicable, reasonably believes are consistent with this Section 4.4.2 and such Prospective Selling Investor, the Prospective Selling Stockholder or the Prospective Selling Minority Holder, as applicable, will provide a copy of such agreements to such Participating Seller within five (5) business days of execution; provided, however, that failure to deliver such documents within such time period will not impair or affect the validity of such agreements. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, will continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the subsequent death, incapacity, bankruptcy or dissolution of any Participating Seller.
14
4.4.3. Sale Process. The Lead Investors will, in their sole discretion, decide whether or not to pursue, consummate, postpone or abandon any proposed Transfer or Sale and the terms and conditions thereof. Neither the Lead Investor nor any Participating Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates will have any liability to the Company or to any other holder of Shares arising from, relating to or in connection with the pursuit, consummation, postponement, abandonment or terms and conditions of any proposed Transfer or Sale except to the extent such Lead Investor shall have failed to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.
4.4.4. Expenses.

Any other costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of any or all of the other Tag Along Sellers, Drag Along Sellers or Other Investor Drag Along Sellers in connection with any proposed Sale pursuant to this Section 4 (whether or not consummated) will be borne by such Tag Along Seller(s), Drag Along Seller(s) or Other Investor Drag Along Sellers, provided that in connection with any proposed Transfer or Sale pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall reimburse the Drag Along Sellers (other than the Prospective Selling Investors or the Prospective Selling Stockholders), for the fees and expenses of a single counsel designated by holders of the majority of Shares sold by the Drag Along Sellers in an amount for each such transaction not to exceed $250,000.
4.4.5. Closing. The closing of a Transfer or Sale to which Section 4.1, Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 applies will take place at such time and place as the Prospective Selling Investors, the Prospective Selling Stockholders or the Prospective Selling Minority Holders, as applicable, specify by notice to each Participating Seller. At the closing of such Sale, each Participating Seller will (a) with respect to certificated Shares, deliver the certificates evidencing the Shares to be Sold by such Participating Seller, duly endorsed, or with stock (or equivalent) powers duly endorsed, for transfer with signature guaranteed free and clear of any lien or encumbrance or (b) with respect to uncertificated shares, deliver such transfer documentation as is reasonably requested by the Company and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, in each case, reflecting that the Shares to be Sold are free and clear of any liens or encumbrances and, in each case, with any applicable stock (or equivalent) transfer tax stamps affixed, in exchange for delivery of the applicable consideration.
15
4.4.6. Auction. Any Transfer or Sale of Shares pursuant to Section 4.2 may be structured by the Prospective Selling Investor or the Prospective Selling Stockholder, as applicable, as an auction and may be initiated by the delivery to the Company and the other Stockholders of a written notice that the Prospective Selling Investor or the Prospective Selling Stockholder, as applicable, has elected to initiate an auction sale procedure. The Prospective Selling Investor or the Prospective Selling Stockholder, as applicable, shall be entitled to take all steps reasonably necessary to carry out an auction of the Company and its subsidiaries, including selecting an investment bank to represent the Company and selling Stockholders in the auction, providing confidential information (pursuant to confidentiality agreements), selecting the winning bidder and negotiating the requisite documentation.
4.5. Cure TopCo Drag Along. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Section 12.7 of the Cure TopCo LLCA, the Company is obligated to Transfer its equity securities of Cure TopCo pursuant to Section 12.2 of the Cure TopCo LLCA in connection with an Approved Cure TopCo Sale (or to have Other Investors Transfer Shares instead as contemplated by Sections 12.2 and 12.7 of the Cure TopCo LLCA), and hereby agrees to consent to the Company taking all such action as is required by the Cure TopCo LLCA in connection with an Approved Cure TopCo Sale; provided that such Approved Cure TopCo Sale complies with all applicable requirements of the Cure TopCo LLCA.
4.6. Period. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4 will expire upon the earlier of (a) the Release Date and (b) immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement in connection with an Initial Public Offering (but subject to the consummation of such Initial Public Offering); provided that the terms of Section 4.2.2 and 4.3.2 shall survive such expiration and continue indefinitely.
5. RIGHT OF PARTICIPATION. The Company will not issue or sell any additional shares of any of its capital stock or any securities (including any debt securities) convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of its capital stock, issue or grant any options or warrants for the purchase of, or enter into any agreements providing for the issuance (contingent or otherwise) of, any of its capital stock or any stock or securities (including any debt securities) convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of its capital stock, in each case, to any Stockholder or other Person (each an “Issuance” of “Subject Securities”), except in compliance with the provisions of Section 5.1 or 5.2.
5.1. Right of Participation.
5.1.1. Offer. Not fewer than fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the consummation of an Issuance, the Company will furnish a notice (the “Participation Notice”) to each Stockholder that holds (either individually or together with his, her or its Affiliates) more than one percent (1%) of all Shares then outstanding (the “Participation Offerees”). The Participation Notice will include:
(a) (i) the amount and kind of Subject Securities to be included in the Issuance, (ii) the number of Equivalent Shares represented by such Subject Securities (if applicable), (iii) the percentage of the total number of Equivalent Shares outstanding held by such Participation Offeree as of immediately prior to giving effect to such Issuance (the “Participation
16
Portion”), (iv) the price (including, if applicable, the maximum and minimum Price Per Equivalent Share) per Share (or other applicable unit of the Subject Securities), and (v) the name and address of the Stockholder or other Person to whom the Subject Securities are proposed to be issued (the “Prospective Subscriber”); and
(b) An offer by the Company to issue, at the option of each Participation Offeree, to such Participation Offeree such portion of the Subject Securities to be included in the Issuance as may be requested by such Participation Offeree (not to exceed the Participation Portion of the total amount of Subject Securities to be included in the Issuance), on the same economic terms and conditions, with respect to each unit of Subject Securities issued to the Participation Offerees, as each of the Prospective Subscribers shall be issued units of Subject Securities.
5.1.2. Exercise.
5.1.2.1. General. Each Participation Offeree desiring to accept the offer contained in the Participation Notice must send a written commitment to the Company within twenty (20) calendar days after the effectiveness of the Participation Notice specifying the amount of Subject Securities (not in any event to exceed the Participation Portion of the total amount of Subject Securities to be included in the Issuance) that such Participation Offeree desires to be issued (each a “Participating Buyer”). Each Participation Offeree who has not so accepted such offer will be deemed to have waived all of such Participation Offeree’s rights with respect to the Issuance, and the Company will thereafter be free to issue Subject Securities in the Issuance to the Prospective Subscriber and any Participating Buyers, at a price no less than the minimum price set forth in the Participation Notice and on other principal terms not substantially more favorable to the Prospective Subscriber than those set forth in the Participation Notice, without any further obligation to such non-accepting Participation Offerees. If, prior to consummation, the terms of such proposed Issuance change with the result that the price becomes less than the minimum price set forth in the Participation Notice or the other principal terms are substantially more favorable to the Prospective Subscriber than those set forth in the Participation Notice, a separate Participation Notice must be furnished, and the terms and provisions of this Section 5.1 separately complied with, in order to consummate such Issuance pursuant to this Section 5.1; provided, however, that in the case of such a separate Participation Notice, the applicable period to which reference is made in the first sentence of this Section 5.1.2.1 will be the greater of five (5) business days and the remaining period under the initial Participation Notice for such Sale.
5.1.2.2. Irrevocable Acceptance. The written acceptance of each Participating Buyer will be irrevocable except as provided herein, and each such Participating Buyer will be bound and obligated to acquire in the Issuance on the same terms and conditions, with respect to each unit of Subject Securities issued, as the Prospective Subscriber, such amount of Subject Securities as such Participating Buyer shall have specified in such Participating Buyer’s written commitment.
17
5.1.3. Certain Legal Requirements. In the event that the participation in the Issuance by a Stockholder as a Participating Buyer would require under applicable law (i) the registration or qualification of any Subject Securities or any other securities contemplated to be issued in such Issuance or of any Person as a broker or dealer or agent or issuer with respect to such securities or (ii) the provision to any participant in the Sale of any additional information regarding the Company or the securities (including by reason of the failure of such Participating Buyer to be an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act), such Stockholder will not have the right to participate in the Issuance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the Company will not be under any obligation to effect a registration of such securities under the Securities Act or similar state law.
5.1.4. Further Assurances. Each Participation Offeree and each Stockholder to whom the Shares held by such Participation Offeree were originally issued, will, whether in his, her or its capacity as a Participating Buyer, Stockholder, officer or director of the Company, or otherwise, take or cause to be taken all such reasonable actions as may be necessary in order expeditiously to consummate each Issuance pursuant to this Section 5.1 and any related transactions, including executing, acknowledging and delivering consents, assignments, waivers and other documents or instruments; filing applications, reports, returns, filings and other documents or instruments with governmental authorities; and otherwise cooperating with the Company and the Prospective Subscriber. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each such Participating Buyer and Stockholder agrees to execute and deliver such subscription and other agreements specified by the Company to which the Prospective Subscriber will be party.
5.1.5. Expenses. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the holders of Lead Investor Shares or the Company in connection with any proposed Issuance of Subject Securities (whether or not consummated), including all attorney’s fees and charges, all accounting fees and charges and all finders, brokerage or investment banking fees, charges or commissions, will be paid by the Company. Any other costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of any other Stockholder in connection with such proposed Issuance of Subject Securities (whether or not consummated) will be borne by such Stockholder, provided that in connection with any proposed Issuance of Subject Securities pursuant to this Section 5, the Company shall reimburse the Participating Buyers (other than the holders of Lead Investor Shares) for the fees and expenses of a single counsel designated by holders of the majority of the Subject Securities anticipated to be purchased in such Issuance by the Participating Buyers in an amount for each such transaction not to exceed $250,000.
18
5.1.6. Issuance Process. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide whether or not to pursue, consummate, postpone or abandon any proposed Issuance of Subject Securities. No Participating Buyer or any Affiliate of any Participating Buyer will have any liability to any other holder of Shares arising from, relating to or in connection with the pursuit, consummation, postponement, abandonment or terms and conditions of any proposed Issuance of Subject Securities except to the extent the Company shall have failed to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.
5.1.7. Closing. The closing of an Issuance pursuant to Section 5.1 will take place at such time and place as the Company specifies by notice to each Participating Buyer. At the closing of any Issuance under this Section 5.1.7, the Company will deliver or cause to be delivered to each Participating Buyer, if applicable, the notes, certificates or other instruments evidencing the Subject Securities (and, if applicable, other securities) to be issued to such Participating Buyer, registered in the name of such Participating Buyer or his, her or its designated nominee, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances, against delivery by such Participating Buyer of the applicable consideration.
5.2. Post-Issuance Notice. Notwithstanding the notice requirements of Sections 5.1.1 and 5.1.2, the Company may proceed with any Issuance prior to having complied with the provisions of Section 5.1; provided, that the Company will:
5.2.1. provide to each Stockholder who would have been a Participation Offeree in connection with such Issuance (i) prompt notice of such Issuance and (ii) the Participation Notice described in Section 5.1.1 in which the actual price per Share (or other applicable unit) of Subject Securities (and, if applicable, actual Price Per Equivalent Share) is set forth;
5.2.2. offer to issue to such Stockholder such number of securities of the type issued in the Issuance as may be requested by such holder (not to exceed an amount equal to (i) the Participation Portion that such holder would have been entitled to pursuant to Section 5.1.1 multiplied by the number of Subject Securities included in the Issuance plus (ii) a number of additional securities sufficient to permit such holder to acquire, in total, the same percentage of the aggregate number of all securities included in the relevant Issuances effected pursuant to this Section 5.2 as such holder would have been entitled to acquire had the Company proceeded with the relevant Issuances under Section 5.1.1 rather than pursuant to this Section 5.2) on the same economic terms and conditions with respect to such securities as the subscribers in the Issuance received; and
5.2.3. keep such offer open for a period of twenty (20) calendar days, during which period each such holder may accept such offer by sending a written acceptance to the Company committing to purchase an amount of such securities (not in any event to exceed the Participation Portion that such holder would have been entitled to pursuant to Section 5.1.1 multiplied by the number of Subject Securities included in such issuance).
19
5.2.4. In the event the Company issues Subject Securities pursuant to this Section 5.2, the Company may repurchase the same number (and type) of Subject Securities from the Lead Investors and/or Affiliated Funds (as determined by such Lead Investors and Affiliated Funds) without any other Stockholder having a rights to participate in such Sale pursuant to Section 4.1.
5.3. Excluded Transactions. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 5, the preceding provisions of this Section 5 will not restrict:
5.3.1. any Issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise or conversion of any Senior Convertible Preferred Stock, Common Stock, Warrants, Options or Convertible Securities outstanding on the Effective Date or issued after the Effective Date in compliance with the provisions of this Section 5 (including this Section 5.3.1);
5.3.2. the Issuance of Shares to the Stockholders as part of the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement;
5.3.3. any Issuance pursuant to any stock split, stock combination, stock dividend or similar distribution or recapitalization of outstanding Shares;
5.3.4. any Issuance of an “equity kicker” in connection with the incurrence by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of indebtedness provided by an unaffiliated third party in a bona fide debt financing transaction; and
5.3.5. any Issuance of Shares which the Board, including for this purpose a majority of the Other Investor Directors, has elected not be subject to this Section 5.
5.4. Certain Provisions Applicable to Options, Warrants and Convertible Securities. If the Issuance of Subject Securities would result in any increase in the number of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of any Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities, the number of shares (or Equivalent Shares, if applicable) of Subject Securities (and other securities, if applicable) which the holders of such Options, Warrants or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, are entitled to purchase pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, if any, will be reduced, share for share, by the amount of any such increase.
5.5. Acquired Shares. Any Subject Securities constituting shares of capital stock of the Company acquired by any holder of Shares pursuant to this Section 5 will be deemed for all purposes hereof to be Lead Investor Shares, Other Investor Shares or Management Shares hereunder of like kind with the Shares then held by the acquiring holder (and in the case of any Manager that holds Other Investor Shares, will be deemed for all purposes hereof to be Other Investor Shares).
5.6. Period. The foregoing provisions of this Section 5 will expire on the earlier of (a) the Release Date and (b) immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement in connection with an Initial Public Offering (but subject to the consummation of such Initial Public Offering).
20
6. REORGANIZATIONS
6.1. Reorganization; Recap Drag. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Stockholders acknowledge and agree that in connection only with a Change of Control or the Company’s Initial Public Offering, the Lead Investors shall have the right to cause the Company to effect a recapitalization, reorganization, change of form, an exchange of the capital of the Company into other equity securities, or any similar transaction (a “Reorganization”) that (i) does not involve a Transfer to any Person (other than any Stockholder or a Permitted Transferee of any Stockholder), (ii) that does not result in Disproportionate Adverse Tax Consequences to any of the Stockholders, and (iii) otherwise results in any of the Stockholders holding equity interests with substantially similar economic, governance, priority and other covenants, conditions, rights and privileges as in effect immediately prior to such conversion. “Disproportionate Adverse Tax Consequences” means (1) material and adverse tax consequences to the Stockholders (other than the Lead Investors) or their direct or indirect owners with respect to their Shares as a result of the Reorganization that are disproportionate to the tax consequences to the Lead Investors or their Permitted Transferees or (2) the realization of, or a material risk of the realization of, solely as a result of the Reorganization (including, but not limited to, as a result of (x) direct or indirect ownership of any equity or other assets received or retained by any Stockholder in such Reorganization or (y) a Stockholder becoming responsible for any liability in connection with such Reorganization, but in each case not taking into account any actions by a Stockholder other than participation in such Reorganization pursuant to the terms thereof), any “effectively connected income” within the meaning of Section 864 or 897 of the Code, “unrelated business taxable income” within the meaning of Sections 512 or 514 of the Code, or income derived from the conduct of any commercial activity within the meaning of Section 892 of the Code to any of the Stockholders (other than the Lead Investors) or their indirect or indirect owners; provided, however that it is understood that Disproportionate Adverse Tax Consequences shall be deemed not to arise solely from any right to receive proceeds or amounts (or solely from the actual receipt of proceeds or amounts) pursuant to (A) a “tax receivable agreement” or similar agreement entered into in connection with an initial public offering or (B) a sale or other exit transaction, in each case where all or a portion of such proceeds or other amounts may be directly or indirectly calculated on a substantially equivalent basis for both equity holders in the Company and other direct and indirect equity holders in one or more entities engaged in a trade or business, which calculation may include adjustments for assets and liabilities of such other entities, including tax attributes. The Lead Investors shall not have the right to cause the Company to, and the Company shall not, effect a Reorganization that would result in Disproportionate Adverse Tax Consequences to any of the Stockholders (other than the Lead Investors) without the prior written consent of each of BCV (on behalf of the Xxxx Group), the Remedy Founders (on behalf of the Remedy Founders Group), and LHP Holding (on behalf of the LHP Holding Group). At least fifteen (15) business days prior to effecting any Reorganization, the Company shall provide written notice to each Stockholder (other than the Lead Investors) describing the proposed Reorganization in a reasonably detailed manner sufficient for such Stockholders to assess the intended tax consequences of such Reorganization on such Stockholders. In connection with any Reorganization permitted pursuant to this Section 6.1, the Lead Investors shall have the right to compel all the other Stockholders, and such other Stockholders hereby agree (subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 6.1), to transfer
21
the same percentage of their Shares as, and on the same terms and conditions as applicable to, the Lead Investors (the “Recap Drag”).

8. COVENANTS
8.1. Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. As of the Effective Date, the Company has, and following the Effective Date shall continue to maintain for such periods as the Board in good faith determines, at its expense, insurance in an amount determined in good faith by the Board to be appropriate, on behalf of any person who after the Effective Date is or was a director or officer of the Company, or was a director or officer of Remedy Opco prior to the Effective Date, or is or was serving at the request of the Company, or, prior to the Effective Date, Remedy Opco, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company, against any expense, liability or loss asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in any such capacity, or arising out of such Person’s status as such, subject to customary exclusions. The Company hereby acknowledges that any director, officer or other indemnified person covered by any such indemnity insurance policy (any such Person, a “Covered Indemnitee”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by any of the Lead Investors and certain of their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees (a) that the Company shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to a Covered Indemnitee shall be primary and any obligation of any Fund Indemnitor to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Covered Indemnitee shall be secondary) and (b) the Company irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of a Covered Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which such Covered Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Covered Indemnitee against the Company. The provisions of this Section 8.1 will survive any termination of this Agreement. Any Fund Indemnitor not a party to this Agreement is an express third party beneficiary of this Section 8.1, and is entitled to enforce this Section 8.1 according to its terms to the same extent as if such Fund Indemnitor were a party hereto.
8.2. Confidentiality. Each Stockholder (other than the Lead Investors) agrees that it will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge or use for any purpose, other than to monitor its investment in the Company and its subsidiaries, any confidential information obtained from the Company, unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.2 by such Stockholder or its Affiliates), (b) is or has been independently developed or conceived by such Stockholder without use of the Company’s confidential information or (c) is or has been made known or disclosed to such Stockholder by a third party (other than an Affiliate of such Stockholder) without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have; provided, however, that a Stockholder may disclose confidential information (u) in the course of such Stockholder’s duties as an employee, director or officer of the Company or its subsidiaries, (v) to its attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company, (w) to any prospective purchaser of any Shares from such Stockholder in any Transfer permitted under this Agreement as long as such prospective purchaser agrees prior to such disclosure to be bound by a confidentiality
28
agreement no less favorable to the Company than the provisions of this Section 8.2, (x) to any Affiliate, partner, member or related investment fund of such Stockholder and their respective directors, employees and consultants, in each case in the ordinary course of business, (y) as may be reasonably determined by such Stockholder to be necessary in connection with such Stockholder’s enforcement of its rights in connection with this Agreement or its investment in the Company and its subsidiaries or (z) as may otherwise be required by law or legal, judicial or regulatory process or requested by any regulatory or self-regulatory authority or examiner; provided, that such Stockholder notifies the Company of any required disclosure described in this clause (z); provided, further, however, that the acts and omissions of any Person to whom such Stockholder may disclose confidential information pursuant to clauses (v) through (x) of the preceding proviso will be attributable to such Stockholder for purposes of determining such Stockholder’s compliance with this Section 8.2. Each party hereto acknowledges that the Stockholders or any of their Affiliates and, as applicable, related investment funds may review the business plans and related proprietary information of many enterprises, including enterprises which may have products or services which compete directly or indirectly with those of the Company and its subsidiaries, and may trade in the securities of such enterprises. Subject to Section 8.4, nothing in this Section 8.2 will preclude or in any way restrict the Stockholders or their Affiliates or related investment funds from investing or participating in any particular enterprise, or trading in the securities thereof, whether or not such enterprise has products or services that compete with those of the Company and its subsidiaries.
8.3. Other Business Opportunities. Each Stockholder hereby acknowledges and agrees to the terms set forth in Article Twelfth of the Certificate of Incorporation.
8.4. Stockholder Covenants.
8.4.1. Each Stockholder that at any time holds more than 20,000 shares of Common Stock (including Common Stock issued or issuable on the conversion of the Senior Convertible Preferred Stock) hereby severally and not jointly agrees that it will not, and it will not permit, cause or encourage any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly (i) solicit or hire for employment, or induce or attempt to persuade to terminate or significantly reduce his or her employment relationship with the Company, any of the Restricted Employees (as defined below) or (ii) introduce or assist or otherwise facilitate the introduction of any Restricted Employees to or by any Portfolio Company for purposes of soliciting such person for employment or hire or inducing or attempting to persuade such person to terminate or significantly reduce his or her employment or consulting relationship with the Company, unless such Stockholder receives the approval of the Board to such solicitation or hiring; provided, that any solicitation, engagement or hiring of a Restricted Employee by a Portfolio Company shall not be deemed a violation of this Section 8.4.1 so long as subsection (ii) of this Section 8.4.1 shall not have been violated with respect to such Restricted Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.4.1 shall prohibit (x) any general advertisement or general solicitation that does not specifically target the Restricted Employees, so long as such advertisement or solicitation does not result in a Stockholder or Affiliate of any Stockholder hiring a Restricted Employee or (y) the solicitation and/or hiring of any individual who is no longer and who has not been employed by the Company for nine (9)
29
months prior to the time of such solicitation or hiring. For purposes of this Section 8.4.1, the term “Restricted Employees” means and includes (a) the executive officers and senior employees of Remedy Opco and its subsidiaries listed on Schedule III attached hereto and (b) thereafter from time to time, such other persons as may be hired, appointed or designated as an executive officer or senior employee of Remedy Opco and its subsidiaries; provided, that no such Person shall be deemed a Restricted Employee hereunder until such time as the Company (as approved by the Board) shall have amended Schedule III to include such Person and shall have delivered such updated Schedule III to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 15.2 below.
8.4.2. Each Stockholder specifically listed on Schedule IV attached hereto severally, and not jointly, agrees that he, she or it will not, and it will not authorize, cause or encourage any other Person to, engage, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, operator, shareholder, manager, consultant, strategic partner or employee or otherwise, in any business that provides or manages bundled payment programs for managed care, the government and non-governmental payers, patients and healthcare providers competitive with Remedy Opco and/or its subsidiaries (a “Competing Business”), unless such Stockholder receives the prior approval of the Board to such activity; provided, that nothing in this Section 8.4.2 shall preclude such Stockholder or Affiliate from owning up to five percent (5%) of any Person engaged in a Competing Business if (i) such Competing Business is publicly traded and (ii) such Stockholder does not control or have the power to direct the operation or management of such Competing Business. It is the desire and intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Section 8.4.2 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under the laws and public policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any court determines that any provision of this Section 8.4.2 is unenforceable, such court will have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, or terminate such provision and, in reduced form, such provision shall be enforceable. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the foregoing restrictions shall not be terminated, unless so terminated by a court, but shall be deemed amended to the extent required to render them valid and enforceable, such amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of this Section 8.4.2 in the jurisdiction of the court that has made the adjudication. The restrictions set forth in this Section 8.4.2 shall survive with respect to each Stockholder who is not a Lead Investor for so long as such Stockholder holds any Equivalent Shares.
8.4.3. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 8.4 is invalid, unenforceable or overbroad, each of the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid, enforceable and reasonable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. Each Stockholder recognizes and agrees that immediate irreparable damages for which there is not adequate remedy at law would occur in the event that the provisions of this Section 8.4 are not performed in accordance with the specific terms hereof or are otherwise breached. It is
30
accordingly agreed that in the event of a failure by the Stockholder or their Affiliates to perform their respective obligations under this Section 8.4, the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance through injunctive relief, without the necessity of posting a bond, to prevent breaches of and to enforce specifically the provisions of this Section 8.4 in addition to any other remedy to which Company may be entitled, at law or in equity. Nothing in this Section 8.4 shall be deemed to limit the obligations of any Person under any other agreement to which such Person is party.
8.5. Other Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not (and the Lead Investor shall not permit the Company to), without the prior written consent of each of BCV (on behalf of the Xxxx Group), the Remedy Founders (on behalf of the Remedy Founders Group), and LHP Holding (on behalf of the LHP Holding Group), take any action that would result, solely as a result of such action (including, but not limited to, by reason of such action resulting in (x) direct or indirect ownership by any Stockholder of any equity or other assets or (y) a Stockholder becoming responsible for any liability in connection with such action, but in each case not taking into account any actions by a Stockholder other than actions connected with actions of the Company (such as, for example, accepting a dividend paid by the Company)), in the realization of (or the material risk of realization of) any (1) “effectively connected income” within the meaning of Sections 864 or 897 of the Code, (2) “unrelated business taxable income” within the meaning of Sections 512 or 514 of the Code, or income derived from the conduct of any commercial activity within the meaning of Section 892 of the Code to any of the Other Investors or any of their direct or indirect owners; provided, however that this Section 8.5 does not limit actions that result in the realization of (or the material risk of the realization of) the items listed in clauses (1) or (2) solely to the extent such result (or risk) derives from any right to receive proceeds or amounts (or the actual receipt of proceeds or amounts) pursuant to (A) a “tax receivable agreement” or similar agreement entered into in connection with an initial public offering or (B) a sale or other exit transaction, in each case where all or a portion of such proceeds or other amounts may be directly or indirectly calculated on a substantially equivalent basis for both equity holders in the Company and other direct and indirect equity holders in one or more entities engaged in a trade or business, which calculation may include adjustments for assets and liabilities of such other entities, including tax attributes.
9. REMEDIES.
9.1. Generally. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and the Company and each Stockholder will have all remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise in the event of any breach or violation of this Agreement or any default hereunder by the Company or any Stockholder. The parties acknowledge that breach or threatened breach by a party of any of its obligations under this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm to the other parties, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agree that, in addition to any other remedies that may be available, each of the parties hereto will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations of the other parties hereto and, in addition, to such other equitable remedies (including preliminary or temporary relief) as may be appropriate in the circumstances, without posting a bond or other undertaking.
31
9.2. Deposit. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.1, if any Stockholder, as applicable, fails to deliver to the purchaser thereof the certificate or certificates evidencing Shares to be Sold (or an affidavit of loss and indemnity agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company in the case of a lost certificate), if any, or transfer documentation required to be provided pursuant to Section 4 hereof, as applicable, such purchaser may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, deposit the purchase price (including any promissory note constituting all or any portion thereof) for such Shares with any national bank or trust company having combined capital, surplus and undivided profits in excess of One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) (the “Escrow Agent”) and the Company will cancel on its books the certificate or certificates representing such Shares, if any, and thereupon all of such holder’s rights in and to such Shares will terminate. Thereafter, upon delivery to such purchaser by such holder of the certificate or certificates (or an affidavit of loss and indemnity agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company in the case of a lost certificate) evidencing such Shares or other required transfer documentation for such Shares (in each case, duly endorsed, or with stock powers duly endorsed, for transfer, with signature guaranteed, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances, and with any transfer tax stamps affixed), such purchaser will instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver the purchase price (without any interest) to such holder. Each Stockholder hereby constitutes and appoints each Lead Investor, or any of them, with full power of substitution, as such Stockholder’s true and lawful representative and attorney-in-fact, in such Stockholder’s name, place and stead, to execute and deliver any escrow agreement in reasonable and customary form entered into with respect to such Stockholder in accordance with this Section 9.2, and such Lead Investor will provide a copy of such agreement to such Stockholder within five (5) business days of execution; provided, however, that failure to deliver such documents within such time period will not impair or affect the validity of such agreements. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and will, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the subsequent death, incapacity, bankruptcy or dissolution of any Stockholder.
