7.2 Use or Disclosure of Confidential or Propriety Information: During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, PC shall require, in writing, the PC Representatives to, treat all Confidential Information as confidential and proprietary and shall not, except as may be expressly required by law, (a) disclose Confidential Information, in whole or in part, to any third- party without the prior written consent of Manager; (b) permit the use or appropriation of Confidential Information by any third-party; (c) use or appropriate Confidential Information for any purpose other than the performance of PC’s obligations under this Agreement; or (d) otherwise use or appropriate Confidential Information for their own account, or as an agent, employee, employer, partner director or stockholder of, or in concert with, any person, firm, corporation or other organization.

(a) Except as otherwise approved by the Manager in writing, establish, operate or provide medical or clinical services in an on-line consumer facing setting; provided, however that the foregoing shall not restrict Physician Owner from serving as a shareholder, director, officer or employee of Online Care Network II, PC, Online Care Network III, PC and OCN Physicians, P.C.;

(b) Except as otherwise approved by the Manager in writing, utilize any individual working for Manager or any of its affiliates as an employee, independent contractor, consultant, agent or representative;

(c) Induce or attempt to influence any employee or contractor of Manager or any of its affiliates to terminate its employment or engagement with Manager or such affiliate; provided, however, advertisements for employment in periodicals of general circulation, use of an employment agency or on the internet shall not be considered a violation of this Section 7.3;

(d) Restrict, limit, interfere, induce or influence any Qualified Professional or any other provider of health professional services that has provided services as contemplated hereunder from becoming an employee or independent contractor of Manager or any of its affiliates (if permitted by applicable Law) or of another practice or professional corporation that is managed by Manager or such affiliate; or

(e) Divert or attempt to divert, or solicit or attempt to solicit, any on line healthcare business that is engaged in or operated by any person or entity that controls, is under common control with, is managed by or is administered by Manager or any of its affiliates.

7.4 Restrictions as to PC and PC Representatives: During the Term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years after the termination or expiration of this Agreement (or with respect to a PC Representative who performs executive or management services for PC and is designated in writing by Manager (“Designated PC Representative”), during the term of his or her employment or contractual relationship with PC and for a period of two years after the termination or expiration of his or her employment or contractual relationship with PC), PC shall not and, within the thirty (30) day period following the date on which Manager notifies PC of the Designated PC Representative, PC shall require, in writing, each Designated PC Representative to not, directly or indirectly:

(a) Except as otherwise approved by the Manager in writing, establish, operate or provide medical or clinical services in an on-line setting; provided, however that this Section 7.4(a) does not apply to Designated PC Representatives who are Qualified Professionals;

7.5 Reasonableness of Restrictions: PC hereby acknowledges, on behalf of itself and the PC Representatives, its understanding and agreement that the foregoing provisions in this Article 7 are designed to preserve the goodwill of Manager and its affiliates, the goodwill of PC, the trade secrets of Manager and PC, the valuable confidential business or professional information that otherwise does not qualify as trade secrets, and/or any substantial relationships with specific prospective or existing customers or clients.

7.6 Injunctive Relief; Damages: PC hereby acknowledges, on behalf of itself and the PC Representatives, its understanding and agreement that a violation of this Article 7 will cause irreparable harm to Manager, the exact amount of which will be impossible to ascertain, and for that reason they agree that Manager shall be entitled to seek, without the necessity of showing any actual damage or posting a bond (unless required by Law), from any court of competent jurisdiction temporary or permanent injunctive relief and/or specific performance of this Agreement restraining PC or any person from any act prohibited by this Article 7. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit Manager’s right to recover any other damages or remedies to which it is entitled as a result of a breach of this Article 7 by PC, a PC Representative or any other person. If any one or more of the provisions of this Article 7 or any word, phrase, clause, sentence or other portion of this Article 7 (including, without limitation, the geographical, duration or scope of activity restrictions contained in this Article 7) shall be held to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, such provision or portion of provision shall be modified or deleted in such a manner so as to make this Article 7, as modified, legal and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law.

7.7 Survival: The provisions of this Article 7 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

8.4 No Waiver: The waiver by any party to this Agreement of any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of subsequent breaches. No waiver by any party of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other provision.

8.6 Assignment: Neither PC nor Physician Owner may sell, transfer, assign, delegate or otherwise convey its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Manager. Manager shall have the right to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise convey all or any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, and to delegate or subcontract for the performance of any and all duties and obligations, or portions thereof, required to be performed by Manager as set forth herein, to any affiliate or subsidiary of Manager or to any entity in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of Manager’s assets or in connection with a change of control of Manager.

8.7 Successors and Assigns: Subject to the provisions of this Agreement respecting assignment, the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

8.8 Third Parties: Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any duty to, any standard of care with reference to, or any liability to anyone not a party to this Agreement, and it is not intended that there be any third party beneficiaries hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the PC Indemnified Parties and the Manager Indemnified Parties are intended third- party beneficiaries of Section 8.12 (Indemnification), and shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of such Section as if a party to this Agreement.

8.9 Governing Law: This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of California, and each of the parties hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California with respect to any and all disputes or other matters arising out of or related in any way to this Agreement.

8.10 Severability: Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to require the commission of an act contrary to law, and whenever there is any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the latter shall prevail.

In such event, and in any case in which any provision of this Agreement is determined to be in violation of a statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the affected provision(s) shall be limited only to the extent necessary to bring it within the requirements of the law so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. The other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement, nor the availability of all remedies in law or equity to the parties with respect to such other provisions.

8.11 Contract Modifications for Prospective Legal Events: In the event any state or federal laws or regulations, now existing or enacted or promulgated after the Effective Date of this Agreement, are interpreted by judicial decision, a regulatory agency or legal counsel of both parties in such a manner as to indicate that the structure of this Agreement may be in violation of such laws or regulations, PC and Manager shall reasonably amend this Agreement, to the maximum extent possible, to preserve the underlying economic and financial arrangements between the parties. The parties agree that such amendment may require reorganization of PC or Manager, or both, and may require either or both parties to obtain appropriate regulatory licenses and approvals. In addition, this Agreement is subject to biennial review and amendment by Manager to ensure that the arrangement described in this Agreement is and remains commercially reasonable, as verified by an independent valuation consultant engaged by Manager at its expense.

8.12 Indemnification: PC shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend (by counsel selected by PC in accordance with Section 8.13) Manager, its officers, members, managers, employees and independent contractors (the “PC Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities, losses, interest, damages, costs, fines, penalties or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, whether suit is instituted or not, and, if instituted, whether incurred at any trial or appellate level or post judgment) (“Claims”) threatened or assessed against, levied upon, or collected from any PC Indemnified Parties, whether or not covered by insurance, caused or asserted to have been caused by or as a result of the performance of medical services or any illegal activity, intentional misconduct, negligence or breach of this Agreement by PC, Physician Owner, or any of PC’s agents, employees or subcontractors (including, without limitation, PC Representatives), including, without limitation, any claims asserting medical malpractice. Physician Owner shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend (by counsel selected by Physician Owner in accordance with Section 8.13) Manager, its officers, members, managers, employees and independent contractors (the “PO Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Claims threatened or assessed against, levied upon, or collected from any PC Indemnified Parties, whether or not covered by insurance, caused or asserted to have been caused by or as a result of any illegal activity, intentional misconduct or breach of Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.8, 3.12, 7.1, and 7.3 and Article 8 of this Agreement by Physician Owner. Manager shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend (by counsel selected by Manager in accordance with Section 8.13) PC, its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and subcontractors, and Physician Owner (the “Manager Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Claims threatened or assessed against, levied upon, or collected from any of the Manager Indemnified Parties, whether or not covered by insurance, caused or asserted to have been caused by or as a result of, arising out of, from, or in any way related to, any illegal activity, intentional misconduct, negligence or breach

of this Agreement by Manager; provided, however, with respect to any liabilities incurred by Manager Indemnified Parties relating to or in connection with any proceeding, inquiry or complaint involving Physician Owner by or from any medical licensing board which otherwise may be indemnifiable under this Section 8.12, Manager shall assume only the costs, expenses and fees, including reasonably attorneys’ fees, arising from such proceeding, inquiry or complaint; provided, further, that Manager will not be responsible for any Claim which was caused or asserted to have been caused by or as a result of, arising out of, from, or in any way related to, any direction, request, instruction, action or omission of one or more of the Manager Indemnified Parties. The provisions of this Section 8.12 shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

8.13 Indemnification Procedures. As used herein, an “Indemnified Party” shall refer to a PC Indemnified Party or a Manager Indemnified Party, as applicable, the “Notifying Party” shall refer to the party hereto whose Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification hereby, and the “Indemnifying Party” shall refer to the party hereto obligated to indemnify such Notifying Party’s Indemnified Parties. As a condition precedent to any claim for indemnification under Section 8.12, in the event that any of the Indemnified Parties is made a defendant in or party to any Claim, the Notifying Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt notice thereof. The failure to give such notice shall not affect any Indemnified Party’s ability to seek reimbursement unless, and only to the extent that, such failure has materially and adversely affected the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend successfully a Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to contest and defend such Claim, provided that the Indemnifying Party (i) has a reasonable basis for concluding that such defense may be successful and (ii) diligently contests and defends such Claim. Notice of the intention so to contest and defend shall be given by the Indemnifying Party to the Notifying Party within 15 business days after the Notifying Party’s notice of such Claim (but, in any event, at least five business days prior to the date that an answer to such Claim is due to be filed). Reputable attorneys reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party employed by the Indemnifying Party shall conduct such contest and defense. The Notifying Party shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and expense, to participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of its or their own choosing. If the Notifying Party elects to participate in such defense, the Notifying Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of such defense. Neither the Notifying Party nor the Indemnifying Party may concede, settle or compromise any Claim without the consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (v) the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of the Claim, (w) the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there is a conflict of interest that prevents the Indemnifying Party from adequately representing the Indemnified Party’s interests with respect to the claim, (x) a Claim seeks relief other than the payment of monetary damages, (y) the subject matter of a Claim relates to the ongoing business of the Indemnified Party, which Claim, if decided against the Indemnified Party, would adversely affect the ongoing business or reputation of the Indemnified Party or (z) the Indemnified Party would not be fully indemnified with respect to such Claim, then, in each such case, the Indemnified Party alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Claim in the first instance and the Indemnifying Party must reimburse the Indemnified Party for its reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of outside counsel) for such contest, defense or settlement of such Claim. If the Indemnified Party does not contest, defend or settle such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall then have the right to contest and defend (but not settle) such Claim.

8.14 Amendments Only in Writing: This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any respect whatsoever except by an instrument in writing signed by Manager and PC.

8.15 Counterparts: This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement shall not become effective until it has been executed by all of the parties hereto.

8.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL: THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLE TO WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY AND THAT ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL INSTEAD BE RESOLVED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.17.

8.17 Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of, in connection with, or relating to this Agreement or any breach or alleged breach hereof, the parties shall first meet and confer in an effort to negotiate in good faith a resolution of such dispute, controversy, or claim. All such negotiations shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable federal and state rules of evidence. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute through negotiations within ten (10) days after the written notice delivered, then a party may demand in writing that the matter be submitted to arbitration under the then current rules of arbitration of the American Arbitration Association (or such other arbitration service as may be agreed upon by the Parties). The arbitrator’s decision in such proceeding shall be final and binding, and any party may petition a court of appropriate jurisdiction for the award of the arbitrator to be enforced by the court. Any costs, fees or expenses incident to enforcing the award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting such enforcement. In any mediation or arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Section 8.17, (i) the parties shall endeavor to identify an arbitrator who is knowledgeable in health care matters and the types of transactions described in this Agreement; (ii) the location of the proceeding shall be in New York or another location as mutually agreed upon by the parties; and (iii) unless otherwise determined and directed by the arbitrator, the expenses of the mediation and/or arbitration shall be borne equally by the parties. Nothing contained in this Section 8.17 will limit, prevent or prohibit Manager from immediately exercising its rights under the Direct Transfer Agreement.

EXHIBIT A

BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT

THIS BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into this 25^th day of February, 2013 (“Effective Date”) by and between Online Care Network P.C. (“Covered Entity”) and National Telehealth Network, LLC (“Business Associate”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, in connection with the Business Support Agreement (“Business Support Agreement”) of even date herewith between Covered Entity and Business Associate, Covered Entity may wish to disclose certain information to Business Associate some of which may constitute Protected Health Information (“PHI”);

WHEREAS, Covered Entity and Business Associate intend to protect the privacy and provide for the security of PHI disclosed to Business Associate pursuant to the Business Support Agreement in compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and regulations promulgated thereunder and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively referred to as “HIPAA”) and other applicable laws and regulations as the same may be amended from time to time; and

WHEREAS, the purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the obligations of the Parties in order to satisfy the requirements of HIPAA, including, but not limited to, those related to Business Associates and Business Associate Agreements.

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

A. Definitions. For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings ascribed to them in HIPAA: (1) “Breach”, (2) “Designated Record Set”, (3) “Disclosure”, (4) “Individual”, (5) “Protected Health Information”, (6) “Security Incident”, and (7) “Unsecured PHI”.

B. Stated Purpose for which Business Associate May Use or Disclose PHI. The Parties hereby agree that except as otherwise limited in this Agreement or any law or regulation, Business Associate shall be permitted to use or disclose PHI provided or made available from Covered Entity to perform any function, activity or service for, or on behalf of, Covered Entity as may be requested by Covered Entity provided that such use or disclosure would not violate HIPAA if done by Covered Entity.

A-1

C. Business Associate Obligations. Business Associate covenants and agrees that it shall:

(1) Not use or further disclose PHI other than as permitted or required under this Agreement or as required by applicable law or regulation.

(2) Implement administrative, physical and technical safeguards consistent with HIPAA that reasonably and appropriately protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the electronic PHI that it creates, receives, maintains or transmits on behalf of Covered Entity and to use appropriate safeguards to prevent the use or disclosure of PHI other than as permitted under this Agreement.

(3) Use appropriate safeguards to maintain the security of, and prevent unauthorized access to, Covered Entity’s PHI.

(4) Require any of its agents or subcontractors, or other third parties with which Business Associate does business that are provided PHI or electronic PHI on behalf of Covered Entity, to agree, in writing, to adhere to the same restrictions and conditions on the use and disclosure of PHI that apply to Business Associate under this Agreement.

(5) To the extent Business Associate maintains PHI in a Designated Record Set, upon request of the Covered Entity, make available to Covered Entity or to an individual patient such information as is necessary to fulfill Covered Entity’s or Business Associate’s obligations to provide PHI: (a) pursuant to an Individual’s right to obtain a copy of his or her PHI under 45 C.F.R. § 164.524(a); (b) that may be related to an Individual’s right to amend his or her PHI under 45 C.F.R. § 164.526; and (c) that may be required to provide an accounting of disclosures pursuant to 45 C.F.R. § 164.528. Business Associate shall also, as directed by Covered Entity, incorporate any amendments to PHI into copies of such PHI maintained by Business Associate.

(6) Make available to the Secretary of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) all internal practices, books and records relating to the use and disclosure of PHI received from, or created by, Business Associate on behalf of Covered Entity, for purposes of determining Covered Entity’s or Business Associate’s compliance with federal privacy laws and regulations; provided, however, that Business Associate promptly will notify Covered Entity if it receives such a request. The Parties’ respective rights and obligations under this Section C(6) shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(7) During the term of this Agreement, provide written notification to Covered Entity’s Privacy Officer within a reasonable period of discovery any Breach of Unsecured PHI and/or any actual or suspected use or disclosure of data in violation of any applicable federal or state laws or regulations (collectively “Loss of Unsecured PHI”).

(8) Use and disclose to its subcontractors, agents or other third parties, and request from Covered Entity, only the minimum PHI necessary, as may be further specified in regulations or guidance issued by HHS, to perform or fulfill a specific function required or permitted by this Agreement.

A-2

D. Permitted Uses and Disclosures. Business Associate agrees that it shall not use or disclose PHI in any manner, form, or in any means that is contrary to its obligations under this Agreement or law and/or any applicable regulation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that, pursuant to federal law, Business Associate may:

(1) Use PHI in its possession for its proper management and administration and to fulfill any of its present or future legal responsibilities provided that such uses are permitted under state and federal confidentiality laws.

(2) Disclose PHI in its possession to third parties for the purpose of its proper management and administration or to fulfill any of its present or future legal responsibilities provided that (i) the disclosures are required by law, as provided for in 45 C.F.R. § 164.501, or (ii) Business Associate has received from the third party written assurances that the PHI will be held confidentially, that the PHI will only be used or further disclosed as required by law or for the purpose for which it was disclosed to the third party, and that the third party will notify Business Associate of any instances of which it is aware in which the confidentiality of the information has been breached, as required under 45 C.F.R. § 164.504(e)(4) consistent with Section C.(7) above.

(3) De-identify PHI in accordance with all applicable requirements set forth in HIPAA.

E. Unilateral Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision under the Agreement and pursuant to federal law, Business Associate agrees that this Agreement and the Business Support Agreement may be terminated by Covered Entity in the event that Business Associate has violated a material obligation under this Agreement, law or regulation.

F. Return or Destruction of PHI. Upon termination, cancellation, or expiration of the Agreement, Business Associate shall return to Covered Entity any and all PHI received from, or created by, Business Associate on behalf of Covered Entity that is maintained by Business Associate in any form whatsoever, including any copies or replicas. If returning the PHI to Covered Entity is infeasible, Business Associate shall destroy any and all PHI maintained by Business Associate in any form whatsoever, including any copies or replicas. Destruction shall render PHI unusable, unreadable, and indecipherable to unauthorized individuals. Should the return or destruction of the PHI be determined by Business Associate, in its sole discretion, to be infeasible, the Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement shall extend to the PHI until otherwise indicated by Covered Entity, and any further use or disclosure of the PHI by Business Associate shall be limited to that purpose which renders the return or destruction of the PHI infeasible.

G. HIPPA Omnibus Rule Compliance; Amendment to Comply with Law. The parties acknowledge and agree that HITECH, as implemented by the HIPAA Omnibus Rule (78 Fed. Reg. 5566 (January 25, 2013)) (the “HIPAA Omnibus Rule”) imposes new requirements on business associates and covered entities with respect to privacy, security and breach notification. HITECH provisions applicable to business associates, together with any guidance issued by the

A-3

Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will be collectively referred to as the “HITECH BA Provisions.” The HITECH BA Provisions will apply commencing on September 23, 2013, or such other date as may be specified in the Omnibus Rule, and Business Associate agrees to comply with the HITECH BA Provisions commencing on the applicable effective date. The provisions of HITECH, the Omnibus Rule and the HITECH BA Provisions are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if set forth in this Agreement in their entirety. The Parties acknowledge that state and federal laws relating to electronic data security and privacy are rapidly evolving and that amendment of this Agreement may be required to provide for procedures to ensure compliance with such developments. The Parties agree to take such action as is necessary to comply with the standards of applicable laws relating to the security or confidentiality of PHI. Upon either Party’s request, the other Party agrees to promptly to enter into negotiations concerning the terms of an amendment to this Agreement.

H. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing express or implied in the Agreement is intended to confer, nor shall anything herein confer or be construed to confer, upon any person other than Covered Entity, Business Associate, and their respective successors or assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities whatsoever.

I. Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall expire when all of the PHI provided by Covered Entity to Business Associate is destroyed or returned to Covered Entity pursuant to Section F. The Parties agree that Sections B, C, and D shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be signed and delivered by their duly authorized representatives, as of the Agreement Effective Date.
