AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of August 8, 2005 (this “Agreement”), among Concentra Operating Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“Parent”), Xxxxx Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Occupational Health + Rehabilitation Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Company and Parent have determined to engage in a business combination whereby Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in such merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”);

WHEREAS, in furtherance thereof, the respective Boards of Directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have approved this Agreement and the Merger; and

WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Merger and also to prescribe various conditions to the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger; Effective Time of the Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as hereinafter defined), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). As a part of the Closing, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall cause a certificate of merger, in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company and meeting the requirements of Section 251 of the DGCL (the “Certificate of Merger”), to be properly executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the terms and conditions of the DGCL and shall take all such other and further actions as may be required by any Applicable Law (as hereinafter defined) to make the Merger effective as promptly as practicable. The Merger shall become effective at the time that the Certificate of Merger is accepted for filing by the Secretary of State of Delaware in accordance with the DGCL or at such later date and time as is specified in the Certificate of Merger (such time and date being referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

1.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 9:30 a.m., Dallas, Texas time, on the date that is the last day of the calendar month in which the Stockholders Meeting (as defined herein) is held, unless the parties hereto agree in writing for the Closing to take place on another date. The Closing shall take place after the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with this Agreement) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than any such conditions which by their nature cannot be satisfied until the

Closing Date, which shall be required to be so satisfied or (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law (as hereinafter defined)) waived on the Closing Date) and shall occur at the offices of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx L.L.P. in Dallas, Texas, unless another date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties (such date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day of the year other than (i) any Saturday or Sunday or (ii) any other day on which banks located in the State of New York generally are closed for business, other than the retail depository business.

1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time: (a) Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the Company is sometimes referred to herein as the “Surviving Corporation”); and (b) the name of the Surviving Corporation shall be “Occupational Health + Rehabilitation Inc”. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. At the Effective time, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Company Charter”) and Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”) in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until thereafter amended in accordance with their respective terms and Applicable Law.

1.5 Directors and Officers. From and after the Effective Time, the directors and officers of Merger Sub shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, and such directors and officers shall serve until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and the DGCL.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK

OF THE COMPANY AND MERGER SUB; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

2.1 Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party or the holder of any shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), or capital stock of Merger Sub, the following shall occur:

(a) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of capital stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, so that, after the Effective Time, Parent shall be the indirect holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Surviving Corporation’s common stock.

(b) Capital Stock of the Company. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Company Common Stock cancelled pursuant to the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.1(b) and Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 2.3)) shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as hereinafter defined). All such shares of Company Common Stock, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such certificates in accordance with Section 2.4, without interest. All shares of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury shares or by any of the Subsidiaries shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor. For purposes of this Agreement,

(i) “Merger Consideration” shall be equal to the quotient (rounded to the fifth decimal place) obtained by dividing

(A) an amount equal to

(1) $47,178,675, plus

(2) an amount equal to the aggregate exercise price of all Company Stock Options outstanding as of the Closing to the extent that they both (i) have become vested and exercisable in accordance with their terms at the time of the Closing (including Company Stock Options that vest and become exercisable as a result of the Merger) and (ii) are entitled to receive the Option Consideration pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, plus

(3) Cash on Hand (as calculated in accordance with Section 2.1(d), but in no event more than $2,000,000), less

(4) the amount required to repay all Debt, excluding Capital Leases, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Closing

(B) an amount equal to

(1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, plus

(2) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Company Stock Options described in clause (A)(2) above,

(ii) “Debt” means, without duplication, the aggregate amount of (a) all indebtedness of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries (including the principal amount thereof or, if applicable, the accreted amount thereof and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest

thereon), whether or not represented by bonds, debentures, notes or other securities or similar instruments for borrowed money, (b) all deferred indebtedness of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries for the payment of the purchase price of property or assets, (c) all obligations of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries to pay rent or other payment amounts under a lease of real or personal property that is classified as a Capital Lease, (d) all conditional sale obligations of and all obligations under any title retention agreements of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, (e) any outstanding reimbursement obligation of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries with respect to letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or similar facilities issued for the account of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries pursuant to which the applicable bank or similar entity has paid obligations for which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is required to repay, (f) any payment obligation of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries under any interest rate swap agreement, forward rate agreement, interest rate cap or collar agreement or other financial agreement or arrangement entered into for the purpose of limiting or managing interest rate risks, (g) all indebtedness for borrowed money secured by any Lien existing on property owned by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, whether or not indebtedness secured thereby shall have been assumed, (h) all guaranties, endorsements, assumptions and other contingent obligations of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries in respect of, or to purchase or to otherwise acquire, indebtedness for borrowed money of others the repayment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, (i) all other short-term and long-term liabilities of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries for borrowed money and (j) all premiums, penalties and change of control payments required to be paid or offered in respect of any of the foregoing as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(iii) “Capital Lease” means any obligation of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries to pay rent or any payment amounts under a lease of real or personal property that is required to be classified as a capital lease on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP (as hereinafter defined).

(iv) “Cash on Hand” means all cash and cash equivalents of the Company determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP (including the consideration of all offsets and disbursements as set forth therein) immediately prior to the Closing, and excluding (A) any amounts that would be accrued on the basis of GAAP with respect to future estimated distributions, as of the Effective Time, or are reserved, accrued or otherwise allocable, as of the Effective Time, to the equity holders of the Subsidiaries (other than the Company), but in any event only in accordance with the percentages and to the Persons set forth on Schedule 3.1(a) or Schedule 3.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, (B) any restricted balances, (C) any amounts held in escrow for any reason, (D) the insurance or other proceeds of any casualty loss with respect to any asset of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, and (E) any proceeds of any indemnification settlements.

(c) Impact of Stock Splits, etc. In the event of any change in the Company Common Stock between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, the Merger Consideration to be paid for each share of Company Common Stock as provided in this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change.

(d) Certain Calculations.

(i) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall calculate the amount of the Merger Consideration, including, without limitation, the amount of Debt to be reflected in such determination, but excluding the amount of Cash on Hand (the “Initial Merger Consideration”). If Parent and the Company cannot agree upon the amount of the Initial Merger Consideration on or prior to the Effective Time, then the final Initial Merger Consideration shall be determined by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or, if the parties otherwise mutually agree in writing, any other “big four” national accounting firm or Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP (the “Independent Accountant”). The Independent Accountant’s determination of the final Initial Merger Consideration shall be made within five Business Days of the submission of the dispute to the Independent Accountant and shall be final and binding for all purposes of this Agreement.

(ii) Within five Business Days after the Effective Time, the Stockholder Representative shall deliver to Parent a written certification (the “Certification”) setting forth the amount of Cash on Hand that existed as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately prior to the Effective Time and such Certification shall also include a good faith detailed calculation of such Cash on Hand amount and any other supporting documentation. Parent shall have five Business Days from the date of Parent’s receipt of the Certification to review such Certification. If Parent does not object in a written notice to the Stockholder Representative (the “Objection Notice”) within such five Business Day time period (such Objection Notice to also set forth Parent’s good faith calculation of the amount of the Cash on Hand that existed as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately prior to the Effective Time and any other supporting documentation), the amount of the Cash on Hand set forth in the Certification shall be final and binding for all purposes of this Agreement. The Stockholder Representative and Parent shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any objection to the amount of the Cash on Hand set forth in the Certification. If the Stockholder Representative and Parent resolve such objection to their mutual satisfaction in writing, the final amount of the Cash on Hand shall be as agreed to in writing by the Stockholder Representative and Parent in connection with such resolution. If, by the fifteenth Business Day after the Effective Time, the final amount of Cash on Hand has not been agreed to by the Stockholder Representative and Parent, then the final amount of Cash on Hand shall be determined by the Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant’s determination of the amount of Cash on Hand shall be made within ten Business Days of the submission of the dispute to the Independent Accountant and shall be final and binding for all purposes of this Agreement. The final amount of the Cash on Hand shall be the “Additional Merger Consideration.”

2.2 Treatment of Company Stock Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take such action as may be necessary to cause each option for the purchase of Company Common Stock (a “Company Stock Option”) then outstanding, whether or not exercisable, under each of the Company’s 1993 Stock Plan, the Company’s 1996 Stock Plan or the Company’s 1998 Stock Plan (together, the “Company Stock Plans”), to become (if not then fully exercisable) fully exercisable, except for Company Stock Options held by employees who have been terminated prior to the Effective Time or by holders who have failed to achieve performance standards necessary for the vesting of such Company Stock Options, and each such Company Stock Option that is vested and exercisable shall thereafter represent the right to receive, for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option, an amount in cash

equal to the difference between (i) the Merger Consideration payable in respect of a share of Company Common Stock and (ii) the per share exercise price of such Company Stock Option, but only to the extent such difference is a positive number (such amount in cash as described above being hereinafter referred to as the “Option Consideration”). The parties agree that the cancellation of the Company Stock Options in exchange for the right to receive the Option Consideration pursuant to Section 2.2 and Section 2.4 is a transaction properly allocable to the portion of the Company’s day occurring after the Closing pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) and, consequently, shall be treated for Tax purposes as occurring at the beginning of the day following the Closing and any deductions resulting therefrom are properly reportable on Parent’s consolidated federal income tax return (and any applicable state or local income tax returns). The parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, report consistently with the foregoing for all Tax purposes

2.3 Dissenting Stockholders. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by stockholders who shall have not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who properly shall have demanded appraisal for such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Such stockholders instead shall be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such shares of Company Common Stock held by them in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, except that all Dissenting Shares held by stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have withdrawn or otherwise lost their rights to appraisal of such shares of Company Common Stock under Section 262 of the DGCL shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable, as of the Effective Time, for the right to receive, without any interest thereon, the Merger Consideration upon surrender in the manner provided in Section 2.4 of the Certificate (as hereinafter defined) representing such shares of Company Common Stock. The Company shall give Parent (a) prompt notice of any notice or demand for appraisal or payment for shares of Company Common Stock or attempted withdrawals of such demands received by the Company and (b) the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands or notices.

2.4 Payment for Securities.

(a) Paying Agent. Parent shall deposit with a bank or trust company designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock and Company Stock Options, for payment in accordance with this Article II through the Paying Agent, cash in an amount sufficient to permit payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.1 and the aggregate Option Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.2 (the “Payment Fund”). The portion of the Payment Fund composed of the Initial Merger Consideration shall be deposited with the Paying Agent on the Closing Date. The portion of the Payment Fund composed of the Additional Merger Consideration shall be deposited with the Paying Agent within one Business Day following the determination of the final Cash on Hand pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(ii). The Paying Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.1 and the Option Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.2, in each case, out of the Payment Fund. The Payment Fund shall not be

used for any other purpose; provided, the Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Payment Fund in one or more bank accounts or in high-quality, short-term investments, as directed by Parent, on a daily basis. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to, and shall at all times be the property of, Parent. Parent shall pay all fees and expenses of the Paying Agent.

(b) Payment Procedures.

(i) As soon as reasonably practicable after Parent’s deposit of the Additional Merger Consideration portion of the Payment Fund pursuant to Section 2.4(a) hereof, the Paying Agent shall deliver:

(A) to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”), which holder’s shares of Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1: (x) a customary form of letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company, specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent; and (y) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration; and

(B) to each holder of an outstanding Company Stock Option entitled to receive the Option Consideration: (x) an option surrender agreement (an “Option Surrender Agreement”) that shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A; and (y) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such Company Stock Option in exchange for the Option Consideration.

(ii) Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with the Letter of Transmittal, duly executed, or an “agent’s message” in the case of a book entry transfer, and any other documents reasonably required by Parent or the Paying Agent, (A) the holder of a Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount equal to the product of the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by the surrendered Certificate, and (B) the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.4, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the appropriate amount of Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.1. In no event shall the holder of any such surrendered Certificate be entitled to receive any interest on any cash to be received in the Merger.

(iii) Upon surrender of a Company Stock Option for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with the Option Surrender Agreement, duly executed, and any other documents reasonably required by Parent or the Paying Agent, (A) the holder of the Company Stock Option shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the amount of cash that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2, and (B) the Company Stock Option so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.4, each outstanding Company Stock Option shall be deemed at any time after the

Effective Time to represent for all purposes only the right to receive the Option Consideration. In no event shall the holder of any Company Stock Option be entitled to receive any interest on any cash to be received in the Merger.

(i) All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(ii) The surrender of a Company Stock Option in exchange for the Option Consideration shall be deemed a release of any and all rights the holder had or may have had in respect of such Company Stock Option. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all action necessary (including causing the board of directors of the Company (or any committees thereof) to take such actions as are allowed by the Company Stock Plans) to ensure that, following the Effective Time, no participant in any Company Stock Plan or any other plans, programs or arrangements shall have any right thereunder to acquire or otherwise receive any capital stock of, or other equity or similar interests in, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any affiliate thereof.

(d) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the former stockholders or optionholders of the Company for 270 days after the Effective Time shall be delivered by the Paying Agent to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any stockholders or optionholders of the Company who have not theretofore received the Merger Consideration or Option Consideration to which they are entitled under this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of their claim for such amounts.

5.12 Other Actions. Except as expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall not take or agree or commit to take, nor will it permit any of the Subsidiaries to take or agree to commit to take, any action that is reasonably likely to result in any of the Company’s representations or warranties hereunder being untrue in any material respect.

5.13 Appraisal Rights. The Company shall not settle or compromise any claim for appraisal rights in respect of the Merger without the prior written consent of Parent.

5.14 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and advance expenses to, the individuals who at or prior to the Effective Time were directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) with respect to all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such at any time prior to the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by (i) the Charter Documents as in effect on the date of this Agreement and (ii) any applicable contract as in effect on the date of this Agreement which is disclosed to Parent and a copy of which has been delivered to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.14(a), during the period commencing with the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation jointly and severally shall (i) indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee against and from any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arises out of or pertains to (A) any action or omission or alleged action or omission in such Indemnitee’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (B) any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) pay in advance of the final disposition of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any Indemnitee upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.14(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 5.14(b) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnitees from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 5.14 shall be deemed to grant any right to any Indemnitee that is not permitted to be granted to any director or officer of the Company under the DGCL, assuming for such purposes that the Charter Documents provide for the maximum indemnification permitted by law.

(c) Parent will cause to be maintained for a period of not less than six years from the Effective Time the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ insurance and indemnification policy to the extent that it provides coverage for events occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) for all persons who are directors and officers of the Company on the date of this Agreement and for all former directors and officers of the Company, so long as the annual premium therefor would not be in excess of 150% of the last

annual premium therefor paid prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum Premium”); provided, however, that Parent may, in lieu of maintaining such existing D&O Insurance as provided above, cause coverage to be provided under any policy maintained for the benefit of Parent or any of its affiliates, so long as the terms thereof are no less advantageous to the intended beneficiaries thereof than the existing D&O Insurance. If the existing D&O Insurance expires, is terminated or canceled during such six-year period or cannot be obtained for the Maximum Premium, Parent will use all reasonable efforts to cause to be obtained as much D&O Insurance as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an annualized premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium, on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the covered persons than the existing D&O Insurance. The Company represents to Parent that the last annual premium for the Company’s D&O Insurance was $70,142.

(d) The Indemnitees to whom this Section 5.14 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.14. The provisions of this Section 5.14 are intended to be for the benefit of each Indemnitee, his or her heirs and his or her representatives.

(e) In the event that the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.14.

Such payoff letter shall confirm that payment of the amount specified therein by Parent shall discharge all of the Company’s and each of the Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Capital Source Agreement and that upon receipt of the applicable amount the lenders will release and discharge all Liens granted thereunder. No later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a schedule detailing the aggregate amount (including principal, interest, fees, expenses and other amounts) payable pursuant to any items of Debt (other than the Debt incurred under the Capital Source Agreement) including but not limited to any Debt incurred under any of the Company’s subordinated promissory notes and any Debt incurred in connection with the Company’s previous purchases of occupational health clinics or other assets.

5.16 Delivery of Estimates. Not later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver in writing to Parent the Company’s good faith estimates of the amounts of Cash on Hand and Debt as of the Closing Date and, prior to the Effective Time, shall furnish to Parent such financial reports, information and other documents and evidence as Parent shall reasonably request to enable Parent to evaluate the accuracy of such estimates.

5.17 Repayment of Capital Source Agreement. Simultaneously with the Closing, Parent shall repay and discharge in full the Debt of the Company outstanding under the Capital Source Agreement.

5.18 Stockholder Representative. Xxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx (and any successor appointed by him to act on his behalf or, if he has resigned, refused to serve, or become incapable of serving (whether due to death, disability or otherwise) or has not, in any such event, appointed a successor, any Person appointed by the Company who was an executive officer of the Company prior to the Effective Time) (the “Stockholder Representative”) hereby is appointed, authorized and empowered to act as attorney-in-fact on behalf of the holders of the Company Common Stock and Company Stock Options in connection with, and to facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement, including, but not limited to, all actions to be performed in the negotiation and calculation of the Cash on Hand and the Additional Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(ii) hereof.

Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon the communications of the Stockholder Representative relating to the foregoing as the communications of the holders of the Company Common Stock and Company Stock Options. Neither Parent, Merger Sub nor the Surviving Corporation shall be held liable or accountable in any manner for any act or omission of the Stock Representative in such capacity.

5.19 Employee Matters. Parent agrees to cause the Company to make the payments to be made by the Company as set forth on Schedule 4.1 in the amounts, at such times and on such other terms and conditions, if any, as specifically set forth on Schedule 4.1.

Company shall have tendered to Parent payment in full of the amounts specified in Section 7.2, or a promissory note in the form of Exhibit B in lieu of the cash payment of the Termination Fee specified therein, concurrently with delivery of notice of termination pursuant to this Section 7.1(g).

A terminating party shall provide written notice of termination to the other party specifying the reason for such termination.

7.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement by any party hereto as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of any party hereto except (i) with respect to this Section 7.2, the last sentence of Section 5.2, the penultimate sentence of Section 5.4(b), and Article VIII and (ii) to the extent that such termination results from the breach by a party hereto of any of its representations or warranties or of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, in which case such party shall remain liable for its breach notwithstanding such termination.

(b) (i) If Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(ii) or Section 7.1(c) and prior to such termination, there has been submitted to the Company’s board of directors or stockholders or publicly announced an Acquisition Proposal (other than the Merger) and, within one year of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not such Acquisition Proposal is the same Acquisition Proposal that had been publicly announced prior to termination of this Agreement) is consummated or the Company shall enter into an agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or recommend approval of an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not such Acquisition Proposal is the same Acquisition Proposal that had been publicly announced prior to termination of this Agreement), which Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated (whether or not such consummation occurs within such one year period); or

(ii) If Parent shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(f); or

(iii) If the Company shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(g);

then the Company shall pay to Parent (A) an amount equal to $1,960,000 (the “Termination Fee”), and (B) such amount, not to exceed $250,000 (the “Expense Reimbursement”) as may be required to reimburse Parent and Merger Sub for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by Parent and/or Merger Sub in connection with their due diligence efforts or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, (1) fees, costs and expenses of accountants, escrow agents, legal counsel, financial advisors and other similar advisors, and (2) fees paid to any Governmental Entity. If the Termination Fee and the Expense Reimbursement shall be payable pursuant to subsection (b)(i) of this Section 7.2, the Termination Fee and the Expense Reimbursement shall be paid in same day funds on the date of consummation of an Acquisition Proposal. If the Termination Fee and the Expense Reimbursement shall be payable pursuant to subsection (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) of this Section 7.2, the

Termination Fee and the Expense Reimbursement shall be paid in same day funds no later than one Business Day after the date of termination of this Agreement or, at the election of the Company, the Termination Fee may be paid by the delivery of a duly executed promissory note in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto by the Company to Parent or Parent’s designee and the Expense Reimbursement shall be paid in same day funds, in each case, no later than one Business Day after the date of termination of this Agreement. Any Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement payable under this Agreement shall be paid without reservation of rights or protest and the Company and the Subsidiaries, upon making such payment, shall be deemed to have released and waived any and all rights that any of them may have to recover such amounts.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge that the agreements contained in paragraph (b) of this Section 7.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements, they would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to pay promptly any fee payable by it pursuant to this Section 7.2, then the Company shall pay to Parent or Parent’s designee the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of Parent or Parent’s designee in connection with collecting such fee.

7.3 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with the Merger by the stockholders of the Company, but, after such approval, no amendment shall be made which by law requires further approval by such stockholders without first obtaining such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

7.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party.

Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, to the extent that a party hereto took an action inconsistent herewith or failed to take action consistent herewith or required hereby pursuant to an order or judgment of a court or other competent authority, such party shall not incur any liability or obligation unless such party breached its obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement or did not in good faith seek to resist or object to the imposition or entering of such order or judgment.
