For the avoidance of doubt, the Management Incentive Plan may provide for the issuance of Profits Interests directly to Management Purchasers or to a limited liability company or another type of a “pass-through” entity that will hold the Profits Interests for the benefit of Management Purchasers (each such entity, an “Executive Holdco”, and the Plan Member is an Executive Holdco). From time to time after the date hereof, the Board shall have the sole power and discretion to issue Profits Interests directly to a Management Purchaser or to an Executive Holdco. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, the Board shall have sole and complete power and discretion to determine which employees, officers, other service providers or consultants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be offered such interests, the number to be offered and issued to each such Management Purchaser, the purchase price therefor and the terms and conditions of any agreement or other instrument to be entered into reflecting that Management Purchaser’s rights and obligations with respect to an interest. In connection with any approved issuance of interests to a Management Purchaser hereunder (including upon exercise or conversion of any option, warrant or right to acquire such interest), such Management Purchaser shall enter into such other documents and instruments to effect such purchase as are required by the Board. Pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan, (i) the Board has issued to the Plan Member on the date hereof a fully vested membership interest, which is initially labeled the “Grant A Units”, the details of which are set forth on Exhibit E, and (ii) the Plan Member has issued Class A Units to certain individuals which are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in

the Management Incentive Plan and the related award agreements. This membership interest issued to the Plan Member constitutes a “profits interest” (as defined in the last sentence in Section 5.1(b)) and initially represents approximately 3.185% of the profits of the Company as determined by the Grant A Distribution Amount and represents an interest in the profits of the Company that may expand from time to time as determined by the Board in its sole discretion (where each such expansion of the membership interest granted to the Plan Member may be separately labeled as “Grant B Units”, “Grant C Units” and so forth). Such Grant A Units shall terminate on the first date following the date of issuance of the Class A Units on which no Class A Units remaining outstanding. Upon the issuance of any additional Profits Interests to a Management Purchaser or an Executive Holdco or an issuance of awards under any Phantom Plan (other than the Initial Phantom Plan Awards), (i) the Company shall update Exhibit A to reflect that issuance of additional Profits Interests or awards under any Phantom Plan (other than the Initial Phantom Plan Awards) and the resulting dilution of preexisting Units (including, without limitation, Profits Interests, e.g., the Grant A Units), which dilution shall be borne pro rata by all Members based on their Units (and indirectly by the owners of any Executive Holdco (e.g., the owners of the Class A Units)), and (ii) the Board shall amend this Agreement to set forth the consent rights, if any, of the Management Purchasers under this Agreement in their capacity as Members, the rights and obligations, if any, of the Management Purchasers under Article IX and Section 13.6, and any other rights or obligations of the Management Purchasers under this Agreement. The Board is authorized to establish a Phantom Plan substantially consistent with the terms set forth on Exhibit F (such Phantom Plan is referred to as the “Initial Phantom Plan” and the initial awards thereunder of 1,528,000 “Class A Units” is referred to as the “Initial Phantom Plan Awards”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event will the aggregate Profits Interests or other interests in profits issued pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan, any Phantom Plan and any other management incentive plan exceed 7% of the total Units or profits of the Company.

(e) Safe Harbor. Each of the Members agrees that (1) the Company is authorized and directed to elect the Safe Harbor described in the proposed Revenue Procedure contained in the Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-43 (the “Notice”) and (2) the Company and each of its Members (including a Person to whom a Membership Interest is transferred in connection with the performance of services) agrees to comply with all of the requirements of the Safe Harbor described in the proposed Revenue Procedure with respect to all Membership Interests transferred in connection with the performance of services while the election is in effect. Each of the Members and the Company agrees not to report the income tax effects of the Safe Harbor Partnership Interest (as defined in the proposed Revenue Procedure Notice) to the U.S. tax authorities in a manner inconsistent with the requirements of the proposed Revenue Procedure, including the failure to provide appropriate information returns. Each of the Members acknowledges that the Notice contains a proposed Revenue Procedure and that the Notice and Revenue Procedure may undergo changes prior to their finalization.

(f) The obligations of Parent or the Emdeon Members to make certain payments to the Company, EBS LLC and/or the Companies pursuant to Sections 2.14, 6.01(e), 7.01(a) and 9.02 of the Merger Agreement and the obligation of the Company, EBS LLC and/or the Companies to make a payment to Parent or the Emdeon Members pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Merger Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the capital contributions made by the Emdeon Members in respect of their Interests in the Company, but shall not result in the issuance of additional Units to the Emdeon Members; provided, that such adjustments shall not be taken into account in computing the Emdeon Valuation Floor.

ARTICLE IV
ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES

4.1 Profits and Losses.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Profits and Losses (and, to the extent necessary, individual items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit) of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that, after giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 4.2 and 4.3, the Capital Account balance of each Member, immediately after making such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal to (i) the distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 12.3(b) if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Gross Asset Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing such liability), and the net assets of the Company were distributed, in accordance with Section 12.3(b), to the Members immediately after making such allocation, minus (ii) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. For purposes of the allocations determined in accordance with this Section 4.1, the Grant A Distribution Amount shall be computed by assuming that all of the Class A Units then outstanding are vested.

4.2 Section 754 Election.

The Company shall make an election described in Section 754 of the Code for the taxable year in which the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement occur. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code

Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of that adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases the basis of the asset), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in the manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to that Treasury Regulation.

4.3 Regulatory and Curative Allocations; Other Allocations.

(a) Company Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Treasury Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to the portion of that Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during such year that is allocable to the disposition of any Company assets subject to one or more Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Company. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(j)(2)(i). Any Member’s share of any net decrease in Company Minimum Gain shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g). This section is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement except Section 4.3(a), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Fiscal Year, each Member who has a share of the Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease of Member Minimum Gain. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii). Any Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(5). This section is intended to comply with the partner recourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirements in the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulation paragraph (4), (5) or (6) of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Members in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of that Member as quickly as possible.

(d) Gross Income Allocation. If any Member has a deficit Capital Account balance at the end of any Fiscal Year that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount that such Member is obligated to restore and (ii) the amount that the Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and (i)(5), that Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.3(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article IV have been made as if Sections 4.3(c) and 4.3(d) were not in this Agreement.

(e) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Members pro rata in proportion to their Units. The amount of Nonrecourse Deductions for a Fiscal Year shall equal the excess, if any, of the net increase, if any, in the amount of Company Minimum Gain during that Fiscal Year over the aggregate amount of any distributions during that Fiscal Year of proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability that are allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(d).

(f) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). The amount of Member Nonrecourse Deductions with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt for a Fiscal Year equals the excess, if any, of the net increase, if any, in the amount of Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt during that Fiscal Year over the aggregate amount of any distributions during that Fiscal Year to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt to the extent such distributions are from the proceeds of such Member Nonrecourse Debt and are allocable to an increase in Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

(g) Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 4.3(a) through (f) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocation of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member should be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. This Section 4.3(g) is intended to minimize to the extent possible and to the extent necessary any economic distortions which may result from application of the Regulatory Allocations and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(h) Other Special Allocations. (i) The Emdeon Members will be specially allocated (pro rata in proportion to their Units) any compensation deduction described in Section 7.09(d)(ii) of the Merger Agreement, and shall be credited with having contributed cash to the Company to fund the equity compensation to which the deduction relates, but for the avoidance of doubt, no such credit shall be given for purposes of calculating the Emdeon Valuation Floor; (ii) if any tax indemnification payment made to the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(a) of the Merger Agreement relates to a tax payment or underlying adjustment that gives rise to a deduction reportable by the Company for income tax purposes, such deduction shall, solely for tax purposes, be specially allocated to the Emdeon Members (in proportion to their Units); (iii) allocations of income or gain shall be allocated to the Emdeon Members (pro rata in proportion to their Units) in the circumstances described in Section 7.09(f); (iv) if any “Loss” described in Section 9.04(c) of the Merger Agreement gives rise to a deduction reportable by the Company for income tax purposes, such deduction shall, solely for income tax purposes, be allocated to the indemnifying party or its Affiliates as described in said Section 9.04(c); and (v) any income attributable to the payment of the Medifax promissory note pursuant to the Mergers will be allocated among the Members in proportion to their Units. Each Member will fully indemnify the other Members against any taxes attributable to income allocated to the indemnifying Member under this subparagraph (h), notwithstanding any reallocation of such income upon audit or otherwise.

4.4 Allocations for Tax Purposes.

(a) Tax Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.4, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such item is allocated under Sections 4.1 through Section 4.3 hereof.

(b) Contributed Property. Items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members in accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder so as to take account of any variation between the Adjusted Basis and the initial Gross Asset Value of such property. Unless the Members otherwise agree, allocations pursuant to this Section 4.4(b) shall use the “traditional method” as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(b).

(c) Adjustments to Value of Property. In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to subsection (ii) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to that asset shall take into account any variation between the Gross Asset Value of that asset before such adjustment and its Gross Asset Value after such adjustment in the same manner as the variation between Adjusted Basis and Gross Asset Value is taken into account under Section 4.4(a) hereof with respect to contributed property, and such variation shall be allocated in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f).

(d) Recapture of Deductions and Credits. If any “recapture” of deductions or credits previously claimed by the Company is required under the Code upon the sale or other taxable disposition of any Company property, those recaptured deductions or credits shall, to the extent possible, be allocated to the Members pro rata in the same manner that the deductions and credits giving rise to the recapture items were originally allocated using the “first-in, first-out” method of accounting; provided, however, that this Section 4.4(d) shall only affect the characterization of income allocated among the Members for tax purposes.

(e) Limited Application. Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.4 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect or in any way be taken into account in computing any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(f) Allocation of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. All “excess nonrecourse liabilities,” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their pro rata Units.

4.5 Other Allocation Rules.

(a) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article IV and the economic impact of the allocations on the amounts receivable by them under this Agreement. The Members hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article IV in reporting their share of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

(b) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the Board using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

ARTICLE V
DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Amount and Time of Distributions.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 5.1(b) or Section 5.2, and the restrictions set forth in any Indebtedness of the Company, each distribution shall be made to the Members only at such times as the Board shall reasonably determine and they shall be made to (i) the Emdeon Members and Purchaser pro rata in proportion to their respective Units or, (ii) if so determined by the Board in its sole discretion, (x) to the Plan Member in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Grant A Distribution Amount over the aggregate amount of all prior distributions to the Plan Member made pursuant to this Section 5.1 or treated pursuant to this Agreement to be made under Section 12.3(b) and (y) the balance to the other Members pro rata in proportion to their respective Units. It is understood that if the Board does not exercise its sole discretion to distribute a portion of a distribution to the Plan Member in accordance with clause (x) in the first sentence of this Section 5.1(a), then the Grant A

Preference Amount will increase by an amount equal to the foregone distribution as determined in accordance with Exhibit E. The Board may, in its sole discretion, cause the Company to make a distribution solely to the Plan Member to enable the Plan Member to redeem some or all of the Class A Units. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any distributions may be made in cash or in kind, or partly in cash and partly in kind, as determined by the Board. Upon any distribution in kind (including distributions of Marketable Securities), the distribution shall be treated as if the property were sold for its Gross Asset Value, and the proceeds therefor distributed to the Members. The deemed gain or loss on such disposition shall be included in the calculation of Profit and Loss for the period in which the distribution occurred.

(b) It is the intention of the Members that distributions of profits to the Plan Member be limited to the extent necessary so that each of the Grant A Units constitutes a “profits interest”. In furtherance of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Board shall, if necessary, limit distributions of profits to the Plan Member so that such distributions do not exceed the available profits in respect of the Plan Member’s Grant A Units. Available profits shall include the aggregate amount of Profit and unrealized appreciation in all of the assets of the Company between the date of issuance of such Grant A Units and the date of such distribution. In the event that the Plan Member’s distributions and allocations are reduced pursuant to the preceding sentence, an amount equal to such excess distributions shall be treated as instead apportioned to the remaining Members pro rata in accordance with their Units for the related Fiscal Year, and the Board shall make adjustments to future distributions to the Members as promptly as practicable so that the Members receive a distribution equal to the amount they would have received, in each case as if this Section 5.1(b) had not been in effect; provided that any distributions pursuant to this sentence shall be further subject to the provisions of this Section 5.1(b). For purposes of this Agreement, “profits interest” means a right to receive distributions funded solely by profits of the Company generated after the grant in connection with the performance of services, satisfying the requirements as set forth in IRS Revenue Procedures 93-27 and 2001-43, or any future IRS guidance or other authority that supplements or supersedes the foregoing IRS Revenue Procedures.

5.2 Tax Distributions.

(a) During each Fiscal Year or within forty-five (45) days after the end thereof, the Company shall make distributions to each Member pro rata in accordance with their respective Annual Target Tax Distributions. The “Annual Target Tax Distribution” of a Member shall mean the product of (i) the excess of the Company’s total taxable income allocable to the Member in respect of such Fiscal Year over taxable losses allocated to the Member in prior Fiscal Years to the extent such losses have not previously been taken into account to reduce taxable income pursuant to this provision (ignoring partner level Section 754 adjustments except as described in subparagraph (c) below), and (ii) the highest maximum combined marginal federal, state and local income tax rates generally applicable to an individual resident (or, if higher, a corporation resident) in New York City, New York may be subject. Amounts distributed pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be referred to as “Tax Distributions.” Tax Distributions shall be

estimated by the Tax Matters Member on a quarterly basis and to the extent feasible shall be distributed to the Members on a quarterly basis to facilitate the payment of estimated taxes by the Members or their beneficial owners. A final accounting for Tax Distributions shall be made for each taxable year after the Company’s actual taxable income has been determined and (i) any shortfall in the amount of Tax Distributions the Members received for such taxable year based on such final determination shall promptly be distributed to such Members, and (ii) any excess in the amount of Tax Distributions the Members received for such taxable year shall be applied against the subsequent Tax Distributions due to such Members. If Profits Interests are issued to an Executive Holdco, Tax Distributions to such entity shall be computed by treating the Management Purchasers, who are the beneficiaries of or the interest holders in that Executive Holdco, as the Members hereunder. Tax Distributions to a Member (other than Nonrefundable Tax Distributions) shall be offset against and reduce subsequent distributions (other than Tax Distributions) to which a Member would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) In the event of any audit adjustment by a taxing authority which affects the calculation of the Annual Target Tax Distribution for any Fiscal Year, or in the event the Company files an amended return which has such effect, the Annual Target Tax Distribution with respect to such year shall be recalculated by giving effect to such audit adjustment or changes reflected in the amended return, as applicable (and by including therein an additional amount that, when distributed to the Members pursuant to this sentence, will be sufficient to cover any interest or penalties incurred by any of Member or former Member in connection therewith), and the Members and former Members who were Members during the relevant tax year shall be entitled to an additional distribution or shall refund any overpayment required on the basis of such audit recalculated Annual Target Distribution Amount.

(c) Solely for purposes of computing Annual Target Tax Distributions, the Company’s taxable income or loss shall be computed on the basis that the common tax bases of the Company’s assets were adjusted on the Original Effective Date in a manner that corresponds to (i) the Section 743 adjustments of the Purchaser Member in respect of such assets as of the Original Effective Date, divided by (ii) 52%, except to the extent otherwise agreed by Holdco 1, Holdco 2 and the Purchaser. For purposes of this calculation, the deemed increases or decreases in the tax bases of the Company’s assets described in the preceding sentence will be treated in the same manner as the Section 743 adjustments of the Purchaser Member with respect to such assets. For example, if the Purchaser Member receives a partner level amortizable basis adjustment to goodwill of $190 million in respect of their Units on the Original Effective Date, the Company may be treated for purposes of computing Annual Target Tax Distributions as having received a hypothetical common basis adjustment to amortizable goodwill of up to $365 million (190 divided by 0.52) on the Original Effective Date. Notwithstanding the forgoing, to the extent that, as a result of the application of this subparagraph (c), the aggregate Tax Distributions that would otherwise be made to a Management Purchaser (or to an Executive Holdco for the benefit of a Management Purchaser) pursuant to subparagraph (a) above in respect of a Fiscal Year are less than such Management Purchaser’s income tax liability (computed on the basis of the tax rates in subparagraph (a)(ii) above) in

respect of his or her allocable share of the Company’s taxable income for such Fiscal Year, the Tax Distribution to such Person (or to an Executive Holdco for the benefit of such Person) pursuant to subparagraph (a) shall be increased by the amount of the shortfall.

5.3 Distribution Upon Withdrawal.

No withdrawing Member shall be entitled to receive any distribution or the value of such Member’s Interest in the Company as a result of withdrawal from the Company prior to the liquidation of the Company, except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI
MANAGEMENT

6.1 Board of Directors.

(a) Powers. Subject to the Act, Section 6.4 and the delegation of rights and powers provided for herein, the Board shall have the sole right to manage the business and affairs of the Company and shall have all powers and rights necessary, appropriate or advisable to effectuate and carry out the purposes and business of the Company.

(b) Size. Until restructured as provided in Section 6.1(c) below, the Board shall consist of six (6) Directors, subject to Sections 6.1(e) and (f) and subject to reduction in the number of Directors if a Member becomes entitled to appoint fewer than the maximum number of Directors which such Member is entitled to appoint pursuant to Section 6.1(d) below in a situation in which the right to appoint Directors has not been assigned as permitted by this Agreement or is not required to be so assigned.

(c) Restructuring. On or before the two (2) year anniversary of the Original Effective Date, the Members shall restructure the composition of the Board to provide that the Board will consist of seven (7) Directors, with (i) the Emdeon Parties having the right to designate two (2) Directors, (ii) the Purchaser Member Parties having the right to designate two (2) Directors and (iii) the Emdeon Parties and the Purchaser Member Parties having the right to jointly designate three (3) additional Directors who must be Independent Directors (the “Board Restructuring”); provided, that if at any time after the Original Effective Date the Emdeon Parties, on the one hand, or the Purchaser Member Parties, on the other hand, no longer beneficially own at least 25% of the outstanding Units, such parties shall no longer have the right to designate the three (3) additional Directors, and the other parties shall have the sole right to designate such additional Directors (who in any event must be Independent Directors) by delivering a written notice to the other parties. The Members will cooperate and take all actions reasonably necessary (including amending this Agreement) necessary to implement and reflect a Board Restructuring; provided, however, any failure of or deadlock by the Members in reaching agreement on the joint designation of three (3) Independent Directors in connection with the Board Restructuring shall not constitute a dispute subject to judicial resolution and, in such event, the composition of the Board and the rights of the Members

to designate Directors to the Board shall continue as otherwise provided herein. If neither the Emdeon Parties nor the Purchaser Member Parties are entitled to participate in the designation of Independent Directors, then the three (3) Independent Directors may be designated by any Member beneficially owning at least 25% of the outstanding Units, and, if there are more than one such Member, by the agreement of all such Members.

(d) Designation.

(i)

(ii)

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, following the Board Restructuring, the Emdeon Parties and the Purchaser Member Parties shall be entitled to appoint Directors of the Company as provided below (in addition to the Independent Directors the Emdeon Parties and the Purchaser Member Parties designate pursuant to Section 6.1(c)):

	(A)		So long as the Emdeon Parties in the aggregate beneficially own (x) not less than 35% of the outstanding Units, they shall be entitled to appoint two (2) Directors, and (y) not more than 35% but more than 25% of the outstanding Units, they shall be entitled to appoint one (1) Director; and

	(B)		So long as the Purchaser Member Parties in the aggregate beneficially own (x) not less than 35% of the outstanding Units, they shall be entitled to appoint two (2) Directors and (y) not less than 35% but more than 25% of the

outstanding Units, they shall be entitled to appoint one (1) Director.

The initial Director designees of the Emdeon Parties are Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxx and Xxx Xxxxxxx, and the initial Director designees of the Purchaser Member Parties are Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxx. If the Purchaser Member Parties Transfer all or any portion of their Interests in accordance with Article IX hereof, they may assign their right (as a group) to appoint one (1) Director of the Board pursuant to this Section 6.1(d), if and for so long as the transferee beneficially owns, subsequent to such Transfer, at least 25% of the outstanding Units, and their right (as a group) to appoint two (2) Directors of the Board pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) if and for so long as the transferee beneficially owns, subsequent to such Transfer, at least 35% of the outstanding Units. If the Emdeon Parties Transfer all or any portion of their Interests in accordance with Article IX hereof, they may assign their right (as a group) to appoint one (1) Director of the Board pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) if and for so long as the transferee beneficially owns, subsequent to such Transfer, at least 25% of the outstanding Units, and their right (as a group) to appoint two (2) Directors of the Board pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) if and for so long as the transferee beneficially owns, subsequent to such Transfer, at least 35% of the outstanding Units. No Member shall be obligated to assign its rights pursuant to this Section 6.1(d). With respect to any Director other than the initial Directors listed above, a Member shall designate its Director or Directors by delivering to the Company its written statement designating its Director or Directors and setting forth such Director’s or Directors’ business address, telephone number, facsimile number and e-mail address. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(c), the Independent Directors shall be designated by the Emdeon Members and the Purchaser Member delivering to the Company a written statement designating such Independent Directors. Directors shall serve until their resignation or until their successors are designated.

(e) Removal. A Director may be removed at any time, with or without cause, only by the written notice of the Member or Members that designated such Director (or, if such Member or Members no longer have the right to designate such Director, by the other Members), delivered to the Company, demanding such removal and designating the Person who shall fill the position of the removed Director, if any. The Members agree to cooperate fully in connection therewith. The written consent of the Emdeon Parties and the Purchaser Member Parties shall, for so long as such Members are entitled to designate Independent Directors pursuant to clause (d) above (but subject to Section 6.1(c)), be required to remove without cause any of the Independent Directors and an Independent Director only may be removed for cause if a majority of the Directors approve such removal.

(f) Vacancies. If any Director dies or is unwilling or unable to serve as such or is removed from office by the Member or Members that designated such Director, the appropriate Member or Members shall promptly designate a successor to such Director. A Director chosen to fill a vacancy shall be designated by the Member whose previously designated Director shall have been removed or shall have resigned. A reduction pursuant to Section 6.1(c) in the number of Directors that a Member may be entitled to

designate shall not constitute a vacancy on the Board or entitle any Member to otherwise designate a successor to such Director.

(g) Expense Reimbursement. The Company shall reimburse each Director for all necessary and proper costs and expenses (including travel expenses) incurred in connection with such Director’s attendance and participation at meetings of the Board, or any committee thereof. Other than Independent Directors, Directors shall not be entitled to compensation from the Company for their services as Directors.

(h) Votes. Each Director shall have one (1) vote. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Board shall act by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of members of the Board.

(i) Right to Delegate. The Board shall have the power to delegate authority to such committees of Directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives of the Company as it may from time to time deem appropriate. Any delegation to a committee of Directors of authority to take any action must be approved in the same manner as would be required for the Board to approve such action directly. Any committee of Directors must include as a member thereof at least one (1) Director appointed by each Member or Members then entitled to appoint Directors to the Board.

(j) No Liability. A Director, as such, shall not be liable under a judgment, decree or order of court, or in any other manner, for a debt, obligation or Liability of the Company.

(k) Agency. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Director shall be deemed an agent of the Member or Members designating such Director and shall not be deemed an agent or sub-agent of the Company or any other Member.

(l) No Affiliation With Competitors. No Director, whether designated by one or more Members or an Independent Director, may be affiliated with an employee, officer or director of, or engaged in business activities with a competitor of the EBS Business, except for those Directors designated by the Emdeon Parties who may have such affiliations or relationships, or engaged in activities, with Parent or WebMD Health Corp., and their respective Affiliates; provided, that no investment by any Affiliate of a Purchaser Member Party in any competitor of the EBS Business shall be deemed to cause a director to have an affiliation prohibited by this Section 6.1(l) solely due to such investment, and a Director designated by the Purchaser Member Party not otherwise affiliated with such competitor shall not be disqualified solely due to such investment.

(m) Subsidiary Governance. The Board, acting on behalf of the Company, shall designate the directors to comprise the board of directors, managers or other similar governing body of each Subsidiary of the Company, if any such governing bodies shall be established by the Board in its discretion.

6.2 Meetings of the Board.

(a) The Board shall hold regular meetings and shall establish meeting times, dates and places and adopt rules or procedures consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Unless otherwise approved by the Board, each meeting of the Board will be conducted by way of telephone conference call or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. If the Board shall decide that a meeting should be held in person, such meeting shall be held at a site agreed upon by the Board. At such meetings the Board shall transact such business as may properly be brought before the meeting, whether or not notice of such meeting referenced the action taken at such meeting.

(b) Special meetings of the Board may be called by any Director. Written notice of each such meeting shall be given to each Director on the Board in person, by telephone, e-mail, facsimile or similar method (in each such case, notice shall be given at least 48 hours before the time of the meeting) or sent by first-class mail (in which case notice shall be given at least 10 days before the meeting). Each such notice shall state (i) the time, date, and the means of conducting such meeting (which shall be conducted by way of telephone conference call, unless otherwise agreed to by all Directors) and (ii) the purpose of the meeting to be so held. No actions other than those specified in the notice may be considered at any special meeting unless unanimously approved by all the Directors. Any Director may waive notice of any meeting in writing before, at, or after such meeting. The attendance of a Director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when a Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not properly called.

(c) The presence of a majority of the Directors shall constitute a quorum for any meeting of the Board; provided, however, that there must also be present at such meeting all Directors designated by the Emdeon Parties and the Purchaser Member Parties (unless that requirement is waived by the Member then having a right to appoint Directors to the Board); provided further, however, that no Member may cause or fail to cause any of the Directors designated by that Member to attend any meeting of the Board for purposes of asserting the failure of a quorum to be obtained at any such meeting or challenging any action taken at that meeting.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.2, the Board may, without a meeting, take any action that may be taken by the Board under this Agreement if such action is approved by the unanimous written consent of the Directors.

incurred by reason of such Director’s fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or knowing violation of law.

The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that Parent retains the power, and shall have the sole authority,

to pursue payment of any such proceeds notwithstanding that any of the Companies may be entitled to insurance coverage under the Parent Policy or the Business Services Policy.

(d) Power of Attorney. With respect to the Retained Claims, the Company and the Companies have granted Parent a power of attorney substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, which irrevocably appoints Parent and its successors and assigns as the Company’s and the Companies’ true and lawful attorney in fact for (i) the Business Services Policy and (ii) the Parent Policy to the extent any Company is an insured party under such insurance policy, and authorizes Parent to: (A) prepare, file and sign the Company’s and the Companies’ name on any notice, claim, assignment, demand, or similar document under the Business Services Policy and the Parent Policy; (B) receive, open, and dispose of all mail addressed to the Company or the Companies with respect to the Business Services Policy and the Parent Policy; (C) endorse the Company’s or the Companies’ name on any documents or execute on behalf of the Company or the Companies any and all instruments, documents, and the like under the Business Services Policy and the Parent Policy; (D) amend and modify any claims brought under the Business Services Policy; (E) pursue and retain payment of any proceeds or amounts payable under the Business Services Policy and the Parent Policy; (F) do all acts and things reasonably necessary and appropriate in furtherance of any such purposes.

The Company agrees that it does not have the authority or standing to, and agrees not to, and not permit any of the Companies to (i) waive any privilege or (ii) contest a claim of privilege that could be asserted by Parent under Law, or a waiver of any privilege by Parent with respect to the Retained Claims.

7.2 Meetings of the Members.

Meetings of the Members may be called upon the written request of any Member other than the Plan Member. The call shall state the location of the meeting and the nature of the business to be transacted. Written notice of any such meeting shall be given to all Members not less than 5 days nor more than 30 days prior to the date of such meeting. Members may vote in person, by proxy or by telephone at such meeting and may waive advance notice of such meeting; provided, that the Plan Member shall not be entitled to any vote at such meeting with respect to the Grant A Units. Whenever the vote or consent of Members is permitted or required under this Agreement, such vote or consent may be given at a meeting of the Members or may be given in accordance with the procedure prescribed in this Section 7.2.

7.3 Various Capacities.

The Members acknowledge and agree that the Members or their Affiliates will from time to time act in various capacities including as a Member, and as the Tax Matters Member.

7.4 Formation of Newco.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to this Section 7.4, if the Board desires to effect an IPO or either the Emdeon Parties or the Purchaser Member Parties initiate an IPO pursuant to Section 8.2 below, or for any other reason in the discretion of the Board, without any vote or consent of the Members (except as required by the initial paragraph of Section 6.4), the Company and each of the Members hereby agrees that it will, at the expense of the Company, take such action and execute such documents as may reasonably be necessary to effect an IPO of a newly formed corporation (“Newco”) that would own all or a portion of the Units or Interests of the Company. In connection with the IPO, the owners of Purchaser Corp. shall have the right to contribute their respective shares of stock of Purchaser Corp. to Newco in a Section 351 Exchange and the Members shall have the right to contribute all or a portion of their respective Units to Newco in a Section 351 Exchange. If the shares of Purchaser Corp. are contributed in the Section 351 Exchange, the Members and their Affiliates will not permit Purchaser Corp. to be liquidated or merged out of existence, nor will it be permitted to transfer its membership interest in the Company to Newco or one of its Affiliates, in each case, during the two year period following the IPO without the consent of Parent.

(b) In connection with an IPO, the number of shares of Newco that each Member shall be entitled to receive in exchange for its Units shall be determined in accordance with Section 12.3(b) as if such shares were distributed in complete liquidation of the Company. If any Class A Units are unvested at the time of an IPO, then the Board, in its sole discretion, shall determine how many shares of Newco, if any, will be issued to the Plan Member in respect of the Potential Incremental Grant A Distribution Amount determined as of the time of the IPO. The Board shall have the sole discretion to impose any restrictions it determines appropriate on any shares issued to the Plan Member pursuant to the previous sentence and to provide that (and for how) the forfeiture, cancellation or redemption of any shares of Newco issued in respect of the Potential Incremental Grant A Distribution Amount shall accrue solely to Purchaser (and its direct and indirect owners and Purchaser Member Permitted Transferees) and the Emdeon Members (and Emdeon Member Permitted Transferees). For the avoidance of doubt, unless and except to the extent that the Board exercises its sole discretion described in the previous two sentences or in the proviso in the second sentence in Section 7.4(c), no shares of Newco will be issued to the Plan Member in connection with an IPO or thereafter in respect of the portion, if any, of the Potential Incremental Grant A Distribution Amount determined as of the time of the IPO and in accordance with Exhibit E. In lieu of (or in addition to, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) distributing any shares of Newco in respect of any portion of the Potential Incremental Grant A Distribution Amount (if any), the Board may, in its sole discretion, cause the Company to distribute, in accordance with the Management Incentive Plan and the related award agreements, cash and/or create a new equity plan, in each case subject to the terms and conditions that the Board may impose. In that connection, the Board, in its sole discretion, shall determine (w) whether the Plan Member will receive restricted stock, an interest in a new equity plan and/or cash, (x) to the extent the Plan Member will receive shares of restricted stock as described in this Section 7.4, the terms and conditions

of the restrictions with respect thereto and the number of shares to be awarded to the Plan Member, (y) to the extent the Plan Member will receive an interest in such new equity plan, the terms and conditions of such new plan and the size of the interest therein to be awarded to the Plan Member and (z) to the extent the Plan Member will receive cash, the amount of such cash distribution and any restrictions.

(c) Each Member shall have the right to abstain from contributing all or a portion of their respective Units to Newco and, thereby, continue to own such retained Units. Units owned by the Emdeon Parties, the Purchaser Member Parties and the Plan Member after the IPO shall be exchangeable, at the option of the holder, into shares of Newco, where each Unit shall be eligible to be exchanged for the number of shares of Newco that would be received if such Units had been contributed to Newco in connection with the IPO; provided, that the Plan Member shall, at the sole discretion of the Board, be entitled to receive in respect of the Potential Incremental Grant A Distribution Amount (if any), as determined at the time of the IPO, restricted stock, an interest in a new equity plan and/or cash in a manner, and subject to such terms and conditions, consistent with the provisions of Section 7.4(b). Upon the determination by the Board to effectuate an IPO, all Members agree to cooperate in the full and timely implementation of formation of Newco as contemplated by this Section 7.4. Without limiting the foregoing in this Section 7.4, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to structure the IPO in the most tax efficient manner with a view toward tax deferral, preserving long-term capital gain and tacking of holding periods for Units, including by providing for the exchange of Units in the Company for equity interests in a corporation, the assets of which would solely consist of Interests in the Company and by not otherwise changing the structure of the Company. At or prior to any such IPO, the Members will enter into a stockholders agreement or other appropriate agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those contained in Article VIII of this Agreement, and pursuant to which the Company shall provide for the continuance following the IPO of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Members under Article VIII hereof, with all other provisions of this Agreement terminating and being superseded by such shareholders or other agreement.

(b) Limitations on Demand Rights. There shall be no limit to the number of occasions on which any Registration Party may make Demands, including with respect to requests for the filing of a Form S-3 Registration Statement; provided, that a Registration Party shall only be entitled to make a Demand pursuant to this Section 8.2 (i) (A) following the 2^nd anniversary of the Original Effective Date (unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 9.10), but subject to Section 8.2(d), or (B) 180 days following a Public Offering and (ii) in any case, if such Registration Party, together with all other Registration Parties delivering the Demand, are requesting the registration of Capital Stock with an aggregate estimated market value of at least $100 million.

(c) Assignment of Demand Rights. In connection with the Transfer of Registrable Securities to any Person in accordance with Article IX hereof, a Registration Party may assign (i) the right to exercise one Demand pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) with respect to each $100 million in fair market value of consideration received by such Registration Party in such Transfer and (ii) the right to participate in any registration pursuant to the terms of Section 8.3; provided, that in no event shall any such transferee have the right to effect a Demand for a Form S-3 Registration Statement or require management of the Company to participate in any road show pursuant to Section 8.7(p) unless such transferee owns at least 20% of the outstanding Capital Stock. In the event of

any such assignment, references to the Registration Parties in this Section 8.2(a) and in Section 8.4(a) shall be deemed to refer to the relevant transferee, as appropriate. The relevant Registration Party shall give prompt written notice of any such assignment to the Company and the other Stockholders.

(d) Initial Public Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.2, prior to the initial public offering of the Company’s Capital Stock, no Registration Party may demand the registration of Capital Stock pursuant to a Demand unless (i) that Demand Registration would constitute a Qualified IPO and (ii) that Demand Registration would result in a market valuation of the interest in the Company allocable to the Units issued to the Purchaser Member as of the Original Effective Date that meets or exceeds the Purchaser Valuation Floor, if initiated by the Emdeon Member or a market valuation of the interest in the Company allocable to the Units issued to the Emdeon Members as of the Original Effective Date that meets or exceeds the Emdeon Valuation Floor, if initiated by the Purchaser Member.

In connection with any IPO, all unvested Grant A Units shall be exchanged for shares of restricted stock that are subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting and forfeiture) as such Grant A Units.

(e) Company Blackout Rights. With respect to any registration statement filed, or to be filed, pursuant to this Section 8.2, if (A) the Company determines in good faith that such registration would cause the Company to disclose material non-public information which disclosure (x) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not be materially misleading, (y) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing or effectiveness of such registration statement and (z) would be materially detrimental to the Company or would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries and that, as a result of such potential disclosure or interference, it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing or effectiveness of such registration statement at such time, and (B) the Company promptly furnishes to the Selling Holders a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company to that effect, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing or effectiveness for the period necessary, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, provided, that such deferral, together with any other deferral or suspension of the Company’s obligations under Section 8.2 or Section 8.4, shall not be effected for a period of more than ninety (90) days, in the aggregate, for all such deferrals or suspensions over any twelve-month period. The Company shall promptly notify the Selling Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 8.2(b). The Company agrees that, in the event it exercises its rights under this Section 8.2(b), it shall, as promptly as practicable following the expiration of the applicable deferral period, file or update and use its best efforts to cause the effectiveness of, as applicable, the applicable deferred registration statement.

(f) Fulfillment of Registration Obligations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a registration requested pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall not

be deemed to have been effected (i) unless it has become effective, (ii) if after it has become effective such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason other than a misrepresentation or an omission by a Registration Party and, as a result thereof, the Registrable Securities requested to be registered cannot be completely distributed in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the related registration statement; provided, that if such registration is a shelf registration pursuant to Section 8.4, such registration shall be deemed to have been effected if such registration statement remains effective for the period specified in Section 8.4, (iii) if not a shelf registration and the registration does not contemplate an underwritten offering, if it does not remain effective for at least one hundred eighty (180) days (or such shorter period as will terminate when all securities covered by such registration statement have been sold or withdrawn); or if not a shelf registration and such registration statement contemplates an underwritten offering, if it does not remain effective for at least one hundred eighty (180) days plus such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriter or underwriters, a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer or (iv) in the event of an underwritten offering, if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied or waived other than by reason of some wrongful act or omission by a Registration Party.

8.3 Piggyback Registration Rights.

(a) If the Company at any time proposes or is required to register any of its Capital Stock or any other securities under the Securities Act (including pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof), whether or not for sale for its own account, in a manner that would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale for cash to the public under the Securities Act, subject to the last sentence of this Section 8.3(a), it shall at each such time give prompt written notice (the “Piggyback Notice”) to each Stockholder of its intention to do so, which Piggyback Notice shall specify the number and class or classes (or type or types) of Registrable Securities to be registered. Upon the written request of any Stockholder made within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Piggyback Notice by such Person (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of), subject to the other provisions of this Article V, the Company shall effect, in connection with the registration of such Capital Stock or other securities, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register; provided, that in no event shall the Company be required to register pursuant to this Section 8.3 any securities of a class or type other than the classes or types described in the Piggyback Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.3, the Company shall not be required to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 8.3 incidental to the registration of any of its securities on Forms S-4 or S-8 (or any similar or successor form providing for the registration of securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions, exchange offers, subscription offers, dividend reinvestment plans or stock option or other executive or employee benefit or compensation plans) or any other form that would not be available for registration of Registrable Securities.

(b) Determination Not to Effect Registration. If at any time after giving such Piggyback Notice and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration the Company shall determine for any reason (including the withdrawal by any Stockholder exercising a Demand) not to register the securities originally intended to be included in such registration, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Selling Holders and thereupon the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register such Registrable Securities in connection with the registration of securities originally intended to be included in such registration, without prejudice, however, to the right of a Registration Party immediately to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 8.2 (including a shelf registration under Section 8.4) to the extent permitted thereunder.

(c) Cutbacks in Company Offering. If the registration referred to in the first sentence of Section 8.3(a) is to be an underwritten registration on behalf of the Company, and the lead underwriter or managing underwriter advises the Company in writing (with a copy to each Selling Holder) that, in such firm’s good faith view, the number of Other Securities and Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect upon the price, timing or distribution of the offering and sale of the Other Securities and Registrable Securities then contemplated, the Company shall include in such registration:

	(i)		first, all Company Securities; and

	(ii)		second, Registrable Securities and Other Securities that are requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Section 8.3 and the terms of any other agreement providing for registration rights to which the Company is a party that can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, pro rata on the basis of the relative number of such Registrable Securities and Other Securities owned by the Persons seeking such registration.

(d) Cutbacks in Other Offerings. If the registration referred to in the first sentence of Section 8.3(a) is to be an underwritten registration other than on behalf of the Company, and the lead underwriter or managing underwriter advises the Selling Holders in writing (with a copy to the Company) that, in such firm’s good faith view, the number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect upon the price, timing or distribution of the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities and Other Securities then contemplated, the Company shall include in such registration:

(i)

first, the Other Securities held by any holder thereof with a contractual right to include such Other Securities in such registration prior to any other Person; and

(ii)

second, Registrable Securities and Other Securities (other than Company Securities) that are requested to be included in such registration pursuant to Section 8.2, this Section 8.3 and the terms of any agreement providing for registration rights to which the Company is a party that can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, pro rata on the basis of the relative number of such Registrable Securities and Other Securities owned by the Persons seeking such registration.

(e) Expiration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of any Stockholder to include securities of a particular class in a registration pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall expire at such time as all Registrable Securities of such class held by such Stockholder are eligible to be sold to the public pursuant to Rule 144 without limitation as a result of the volume restrictions set forth therein.

8.4 Form S-3 Registration.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 to the contrary, in case the Company shall receive from any Stockholders a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Stockholder or Stockholders, and the Company is then eligible to use Form S-3 for the resale of Registrable Securities, the Company will:

	(i)		promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

	(ii)		promptly effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Stockholder’s or Stockholders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Stockholder or Stockholders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 8.4:

	(A)		if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Stockholders;

	(B)		if the Stockholders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities at an aggregate price to the public (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than $25 million;

	(C)		if the Company shall furnish to the Stockholders a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer or chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board as evidenced by a resolution by the Board, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Stockholder or Stockholders under this Section 8.4; provided, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period;

	(D)		if the Company has, within the six (6) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected one (1) registration on Form S-3 for the Stockholders pursuant to this Section 8.2, provided, that any such registration shall be deemed to have been “effected” if the registration statement relating thereto (A) has become or been declared or ordered effective under the Securities Act, and any of the Registrable Securities of the Registration Party included in such registration have actually been sold thereunder and (B) has remained effective for a period of at least 180 days; or

	(E)		in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.

(b) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered promptly after receipt of the request or requests of the Stockholders (the “Form S-3 Registration Statement”). Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall not be counted as requests for registration effected pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 respectively.

(c) If the Stockholders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request under this Section 8.4 by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 8.4 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in subsection 8.4(a). The underwriter or underwriters will be selected by a majority in interest of the Stockholders participating in such registration and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. In such event, the right of any Stockholder to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Stockholder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Stockholder’s Registrable

Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Stockholders participating in the registration and the Stockholder) to the extent provided herein. All Stockholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in Section 8.7) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.4, if the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Stockholders participating in such underwriting in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Stockholders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated first among all Stockholders thereof, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Stockholder at the time of the filing of the registration statement; provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by Stockholders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall receive from any Stockholders of Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or requests under Section 8.4 that the Company effect a registration statement on Form S-3 that includes only those items and that information that is required to be included in parts I and II of such Form, and does not include any additional or extraneous items of information (e.g. a lengthy description of the Company or the Company’s business) (an “Ordinary S-3 Registration Statement”), then Section 8.4(a)(ii)(D) shall not apply to such Ordinary S-3 Registration Statement request.

8.5 Selection of Underwriters. In the event that any registration pursuant to this Article VIII shall involve, in whole or in part, an underwritten offering, the underwriter or underwriters shall be designated by the Board.

8.6 Withdrawal Rights; Expenses.

(a) A Selling Holder may withdraw all or any part of its Registrable Securities from any registration (including a registration effected pursuant to Section 8.2) by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw at any time. Except in the case of a withdrawal of Registrable Securities made within thirty (30) days of receipt by such Selling Holder of a certificate or notice from the Company that it will defer the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.4(b), the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement for any Commission registration fees incurred by the Company in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities so withdrawn (unless such registration fees can be used in connection with the registration of other securities by the Company, including in connection with a future registration). In the case of a withdrawal prior to the effective date of a registration statement, any Registrable Securities so withdrawn shall be reallocated among the remaining participants in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Except as provided herein, the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses with respect to a particular offering (or proposed offering). Except as provided herein each Selling Holder and the Company shall be responsible for its own fees and expenses of counsel and financial advisors and their internal administrative and similar costs, as well as their respective pro rata shares of underwriters’ commissions and discounts, which shall not constitute Registration Expenses.

8.7 Registration and Qualification. If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this Article VIII, the Company shall as promptly as practicable:

(a) Registration Statement. Prepare and (as soon thereafter as practicable and in any event, no later than sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable period specified in Section 8.2(a) within which requests for registration may be given to the Company) file a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the Registrable Securities to be offered and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable thereafter, and keep such registration statement effective for 180 days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided, that, in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 180-day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for sales of such Registrable Securities, and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Securities Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the SEC as announced from time to time, until the earlier of when (i) the Stockholders have sold all of such Registrable Securities and (ii) the Stockholders may sell all of such Registrable Securities on a single day or pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected Stockholders; furnish to the lead underwriter or underwriters, if any, and to the Selling Holders who have requested that Registrable Securities be covered by such registration statement, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the registration statement, and each amendment thereof, and a copy of any prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto (excluding amendments caused by the filing of a report under the Exchange Act), and use its reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Persons reasonably may on a timely basis propose;

(b) Amendments; Supplements. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be (i) reasonably requested by any Selling Holder (to the extent such request relates to information relating to such Selling Holder), or (ii) necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities until the earlier of (A) such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such registration statement and (B) if a Form S-3 registration, the expiration of the applicable

period specified in Section 8.4(a) and, if not a Form S-3 registration, the applicable period specified in Section 8.2(c); provided, that any such required period provided for in Section 8.4(a) or this 8.7(b) shall be extended for such number of days (x) during any period from and including the date any written notice contemplated by paragraph (f) below is given by the Company until the date on which the Company delivers to the Selling Holders the supplement or amendment contemplated by paragraph (f) below or written notice that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, as the case may be, and (y) during which the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court or by actions taken by the Company pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(ii); provided, further, that the Company will have no obligation to a Selling Holder participating on a “piggyback” basis in a registration statement that has become effective to keep such registration statement effective for a period beyond one hundred twenty (120) days from the effective date of such registration statement. The Company will respond promptly to any comments received from the SEC and request acceleration of effectiveness promptly after it learns that the SEC will not review the registration statement or after it has satisfied comments received from the SEC. With respect to each Free Writing Prospectus or other materials to be included in the Disclosure Package, ensure that no Registrable Securities be sold “by means of” (as defined in Rule 159A(b) under the Securities Act) such Free Writing Prospectus or other materials without the prior written consent of the Stockholders of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, which Free Writing Prospectuses or other materials shall be subject to the review of counsel to such Stockholders, and make all required filings of all Free Writing Prospectuses with the SEC.

8.8 Underwriting; Due Diligence.

(a) If requested by the underwriters for any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration requested under this Article VIII, the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering, which agreement will contain such representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements generally with respect to secondary distributions to the extent relevant, including, without limitation, indemnification and contribution provisions substantially to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 8.9, and agreements as to the provision of opinions of counsel and accountants’ letters to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 8.7(e). The Selling Holders on whose behalf the Registrable Securities are to be distributed by such underwriters shall be parties to any such underwriting agreement, and the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters, shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Selling Holders and the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement shall also be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Selling Holders to the extent applicable. Subject to the following sentence, such underwriting agreement shall also contain such representations and warranties by such Selling Holders and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, when relevant. No Selling Holder shall be required in any such underwriting agreement or related documents to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than customary representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder’s title to Registrable Securities and any written information provided by the Selling Holder to the Company expressly for inclusion in the related registration statement.

(b) In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement registering Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Article VIII, the Company shall make available upon reasonable notice at reasonable times and for reasonable periods for inspection by each Selling Holder, by any managing underwriter or underwriters participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such registration statement, and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any Selling Holder or any managing underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees and the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements to make themselves available to discuss the business of the Company and to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Selling Holders, managing underwriters, attorneys, accountants or agents in connection with such registration statement as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility (subject to entry by each party referred to in this clause (b) into customary confidentiality agreements in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company).

(c) In the case of an underwritten offering requested by the Registration Parties pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.4, the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms for the Registrable Securities of the related underwriting agreement shall be determined by the Selling Holders. In the case of any underwritten offering of securities by the Company pursuant to Section 8.3, such price, discount and other terms shall be determined by the Company, subject to the right of Selling Holders to withdraw their Registrable Securities from the registration pursuant to 8.3(b).

(d) Subject to Section 8.8(a), no Person may participate in an underwritten offering unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreement and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

8.9 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. In the case of each offering of Registrable Securities made pursuant to this Article V, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder, each underwriter of Registrable Securities so offered and each Person, if any, who controls or is alleged to control (within the meaning set forth in the Securities Act) any of the foregoing Persons, the Affiliates of each of the foregoing, and the officers, directors, partners, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), claims and damages, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement by the Company or alleged untrue statement by the

Company of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein) or in the Disclosure Package, or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities prepared by the Company or at its direction, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission by the Company or alleged omission by the Company to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage arises out of or relates to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission, if such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such Person furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Person expressly for inclusion in the registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein), offering memorandum or other offering document, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any such Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities.

(b) Indemnification by Selling Holders. In the case of each offering made pursuant to this Agreement, each Selling Holder, by exercising its registration rights hereunder, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Company, each other Selling Holder and each Person, if any, who controls or is alleged to control (within the meaning set forth in the Securities Act) any of the foregoing, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, and the officers, directors, partners, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), claims and damages to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement made by such Selling Holder of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein) or in the Disclosure Package relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities prepared by the Company or at its direction, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission by such Selling Holder of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement of a material fact occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with, or such material fact is omitted from, information relating to such Selling Holder furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in such registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein) or Disclosure Package, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. The liability of any Selling Holder hereunder shall be several and not joint and in no event shall the liability of any Selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds

received by such Selling Holder under the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c) Indemnification Procedures. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 8.9 shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification promptly after such indemnified party has actual knowledge that a claim is to be made against the indemnified party as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim or litigation resulting therefrom and any related settlement and settlement negotiations, subject to the limitations on settlement set forth below; provided, that counsel for the indemnifying party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the indemnified party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the indemnified party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 8.9, except to the extent the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an indemnified party shall have the right to retain separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel being paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel or if the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action. No indemnified party shall enter into any settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened with respect to which indemnification is or may be sought without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each indemnified party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an indemnifying party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.9 shall for any reason be unavailable (other than in accordance with its terms) to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, liability, cost, claim or damage referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party on the one hand or the indemnified party on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and

opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, cost, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this paragraph (d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this paragraph (d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.9(d) to the contrary, no indemnifying party (other than the Company) shall be required pursuant to this Section 8.9(d) to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such indemnifying party from the sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to which the losses of the indemnified parties relate exceeds the amount of any damages which such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8.9(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in this Section.

(e) Indemnification/Contribution under State Law. Indemnification and contribution similar to that specified in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8.9 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and the Selling Holders and underwriters with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any state law or regulation or governmental authority.

(f) Obligations Not Exclusive. The obligations of the parties under this Section 8.9 shall be in addition to any liability which any party may otherwise have to any other Person.

(g) Survival. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 8.9 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

8.10 Cooperation; Information by Selling Holder.

(a) It shall be a condition of each Selling Holder’s rights under this Article VIII that such Selling Holder cooperate with the Company by entering into any undertakings and taking such other action relating to the conduct of the proposed offering which the Company or the underwriters may reasonably request as being necessary to insure compliance with federal and state securities laws and the rules or other requirements of the NASD or which are otherwise customary and which the Company or the underwriters may reasonably request to effectuate the offering.

(b) Each Selling Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Selling Holder and the distribution proposed by such Selling Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this

Article VIII. The Company shall have the right to exclude from the registration any Selling Holder that does not comply with this Section 8.10.

(c) At such time as an underwriting agreement with respect to a particular underwriting is entered into, the terms of any such underwriting agreement shall govern with respect to the matters set forth therein to the extent inconsistent with this Article VIII; provided, however, that the indemnification provisions of such underwriting agreement as they relate to the Selling Holders are customary for registrations of the type then proposed and provide for indemnification by such Selling Holders only with respect to written information furnished by such Selling Holders.

8.11 Rule 144 and Rule 145. Following a Public Offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that the conditions to the availability of Rule 144 and Rule 145 set forth in paragraph (c) of Rule 144 shall be satisfied. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements. Upon the request of any Stockholder for so long as such information is a necessary element of such Person’s ability to avail itself of Rule 144 or Rule 145, the Company will deliver to such Person (i) a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Person may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Person to sell any such securities without registration.

8.12 Holdback Agreement. Each of the Company and each holder of Registrable Securities (whether or not such Registrable Securities are covered by a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof) agrees, if requested (pursuant to a timely written notice) by the managing underwriter or underwriters in an underwritten offering, not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of the Registrable Securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (except as part of such underwritten offering), during the period beginning ten (10) days prior to, and ending one hundred twenty (120) days after, the closing date of the underwritten offering made pursuant to such registration statement. The foregoing provisions shall not apply to the Company or any other Person if such Person is prevented by applicable statute or regulation from entering into any such agreement; provided, however, that any such Person shall undertake not to effect any public sale or distribution of the class of securities covered by such registration statement (except as part of the underwritten offering) during such period unless it has provided sixty (60) days’ prior written notice of such sale or distribution to the managing underwriter.

8.13 Suspension of Sales. Each Selling Holder participating in a registration agrees that, upon receipt of notice from the Company pursuant to Section 8.7(f), such Selling Holder will discontinue disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 8.7(f), or until advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, as the case may be, and, if so directed by

the Company, such Selling Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities which are current at the time of the receipt of the notice of the event described in Section 8.7(f).

8.14 Third Party Registration Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent the Company from providing registration rights to any other Person on such terms as the Board deems desirable in its sole discretion; provided, that, so long as (i) the Emdeon Parties collectively own at least 50% of the Units (as adjusted for stock splits, the formation of Newco contemplated by Section 7.4 and the like) owned by the Emdeon Members immediately following the Original Effective Date, such registration rights are approved by the Emdeon Members and (ii) the Purchaser Member Parties collectively own at least 50% of the Units (as adjusted for stock splits, the formation of Newco contemplated by Section 7.4 and the like) owned by the Purchaser Member immediately following the Original Effective Date, such registration rights are approved by the Purchaser Member.

ARTICLE IX
TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS

9.1 Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Except as provided in Sections 9.5, 9.6 and 9.7, no Member shall be entitled to Transfer all or any portion of its Interests directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of the Emdeon Members, in connection with Transfers by any Member other than an Emdeon Member, or the Purchaser Member, in connection with Transfers by any Member other than the Purchaser Member, except for Transfers (i) by any Emdeon Member to an Emdeon Permitted Transferee, and (ii) by the Purchaser Member to a Purchaser Member Permitted Transferee or pursuant to Section 9.8 of this Agreement. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.1(a), all or any portion of a Member’s Interests are Transferred in violation of this Section 9.1(a), involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, the Transferee of such Interest (or portion thereof) shall not be admitted to the Company as a Member unless each Member consents in writing to such admission, which consent shall be granted or withheld in each Member’s sole discretion. Any attempted or purported Transfer of all or a portion of a Member’s Interests in violation of this Section 9.1(a) shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever. In the event a Transfer of any Interests causes a termination of the Company for tax purposes under Section 708 of the Code, the transferring Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the other Members (other than the Plan Member) with respect to the net amount of any incremental tax costs resulting from such termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Plan Member be entitled to Transfer, directly or indirectly, any Equity Securities of the Company (including any Grant A Units) without the prior written consent of the Purchaser Member and the Emdeon Members, including, without limitation, any Transfer by way of permitting any member or Management Purchaser of the Plan Member to Transfer Equity Securities or other ownership interests in the Plan Member (or any other

Executive Holdco), other than in accordance with the terms of the Management Incentive Plan of the Company.

(b) In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein contained, including, without limitation, the provisions of this Article IX, in no event may any Transfer or assignment of Interests by any Member be made (i) to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own Interests; (ii) if in the opinion of legal counsel or a qualified tax advisor to the Company such Transfer presents a material risk that such Transfer would cause a termination of the Company for federal or state income tax purposes; (iii) if in the opinion of legal counsel or a qualified tax advisor to the Company such Transfer presents a material risk that such Transfer would cause the Company to cease to be classified as a partnership or to be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code for federal income tax purposes; (iv) other than a Transfer pursuant to Section 9.6, if such Transfer would cause the Company to become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a “party-in-interest” (as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) or a “disqualified person” (as defined in Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code); (v) other than a Transfer pursuant to Section 9.6, if such Transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, cause any portion of the assets of the Company to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to the Plan Asset Regulation or otherwise cause the Company to be subject to regulation under ERISA; (vi) other than a Transfer pursuant to Section 9.6, if such Transfer requires the registration of such Interests pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws; or (vii) if such Transfer subjects the Company to regulation under the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, each as amended.

(c) The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as of the Original Effective Date, for the benefit of the Company and the Emdeon Members, that Purchaser Corp. is a newly-formed entity formed solely to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including the debt financing contemplated thereby) and to enter into this Agreement, and has not engaged, and will not engage, in any other business other than the holding of Interests and all activities related to the exercise of rights and fulfillment of obligations arising under this Agreement and the Merger Agreement.

(d) In any Transfer effected pursuant to this Article IX that would constitute a Sale (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer made pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) or (ii) or Section 9.5), the net proceeds (after giving effect to transaction expenses, indemnification obligations and the like) from such Sale (i) shall be distributed among the Members in a manner consistent with the distribution priority set forth in Section 12.3(b) and (ii) a portion of such proceeds up to the Potential Incremental Grant A Distribution Amount (if any) determined as of the time of such Sale shall be reserved or otherwise set aside in a manner determined by the Board in its sole discretion for the Plan Member and such amount (if any) distributable to the Plan Member no later than 365 days after the closing of such Sale. Any amount so reserved and distributable to the Plan Member shall be forfeited if and to the extent Class A Units are forfeited within such 365-day period (and any forfeited amount shall be distributed to the Emdeon Members and Purchaser pro rata in proportion to their respective Units).

9.2 Notice of Transfer.

Each Member shall, after complying with the provisions of this Agreement, but prior to any Transfer of Interests, give written notice to the Company of such proposed Transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer. The Transferring Member shall be entitled to Transfer such Interests, on the terms set forth in the notice, within sixty (60) days of delivery of the notice.

9.3 Transferee Members.

A Transferee of Interests pursuant to this Article IX (including an Emdeon Permitted Transferee or a Purchaser Member Permitted Transferee, as applicable) shall have the right to become a Member only if (i) the requirements of this Article IX, including Section 9.1 relating to consent of the Members, are met (except for Transfers to Emdeon Permitted Transferees or Purchaser Member Permitted Transferees, as applicable) and except for transfers made in compliance with Sections 9.5, 9.6, 9.7 and 9.8 hereto, which do not require written consent of the Members as provided therein) and this Section 9.3, (ii) such transferee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the remaining Members agreeing to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and assuming all of the Transferor’s then existing and future Liabilities arising under or relating to this Agreement, (iii) such transferee represents that the Transfer was made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations and (iv) the transferor or transferee shall have reimbursed the Company for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) of any Transfer or proposed Transfer of a Member’s Interest, whether or not consummated. Unless agreed to in writing by all Members, the admission of a Member shall not result in the release of the Transferor from any Liability that the Transferor may have to each remaining Member or to the Company under this Agreement or any Related Agreement. Written notice of the admission of a Member shall be sent promptly by the Transferor to each remaining Member and the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.3, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, following a Transfer by (a) one or more Emdeon Members (or a transferee of the type described in this clause (a)) to an Emdeon Permitted Transferee of all or substantially all of their Interests or (b) Purchaser Member (or a transferee of the type included in this clause (b)) to a Purchaser Member Permitted Transferee of all or substantially all of their Interests, such transferee shall succeed to all of the rights of the Emdeon Member, or the Purchaser Member, as applicable, under this Agreement.

9.4 No Transfers to Competitors.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, and so long as the Emdeon Parties continue to beneficially own at least (i) 50% of the Units beneficially held by the Emdeon Members as of the Original Effective Date or (ii) 5% of the outstanding Units, and the Emdeon Members or their Affiliates continue to operate the Parent Business or the WebMD Business, as applicable, then, other than (a) Transfers made with the consent of a majority of the Emdeon Members or the Purchaser Members, as applicable (depending on the party seeking to make a Transfer) or (b) Transfers

pursuant to Section 9.6, no Member may Transfer any Interests (or portions thereof) to any Person (or to any Affiliate thereof) who directly or indirectly competes with the conduct of (A) the EBS Business (B) the Parent Business or (C) the WebMD Business, including any successors of the EBS Business, the Parent Business or the WebMD Business, as applicable, so long as the competitive business as conducted by that successor would have constituted at least 25% of the successor’s revenue on a pro forma basis in the prior fiscal year; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any Emdeon Member may Transfer its Interests (or any portion thereof) to any Emdeon Permitted Transferee that competes with the conduct of the Parent Business or the WebMD Business (or to any Affiliate thereof). The Persons who are deemed to directly or indirectly compete under clause (A), (B) or (C) of this Section 9.4 as of the Original Effective Date are listed on Exhibit D hereto. Emdeon shall update Exhibit D from time to time to reflect the then-current list of Persons deemed to directly or indirectly compete under such clauses, and the Purchaser Member Parties may rely on such updated list for purposes of this Agreement.

9.5 Right of First Offer.

(a) Prior to the Transfer for value of any Interests in the Company by a Purchaser Member Party or a Member (other than an Emdeon Party) who has acquired its interests from a Purchaser Member Party and holds Units equal to at least 5% of the outstanding Units (other than to a Purchaser Member Permitted Transferee) (for purposes of this paragraph (a) and paragraph (b) below, a “Proposed Transfer”), such Member(s) (the “Purchaser Selling Members”) shall give a notice in writing (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Company and the Emdeon Parties setting forth the desire to Transfer, which notice shall include the price and other material terms that the Purchaser Selling Members would be willing to accept. Each such notice shall constitute a binding commitment by the applicable Member to sell the Interest referred to therein as provided in this Section 9.5.

(b) Upon receipt of such Transfer Notice, the Company (acting for purposes of this Section 9.5 upon the decision of the disinterested Directors) will have an option to purchase, in the aggregate, all (but not part) of the Interest described in the Transfer Notice at the price specified in the Transfer Notice. If the Company desires to exercise the option set forth in the preceding sentence, it shall deliver a notice (an “Election Notice”) to the Purchaser Selling Members and the Emdeon Parties within ten (10) days of receipt of the Transfer Notice (the “Election Period”). If the Company does not deliver an Election Notice to the Purchaser Selling Members and the Emdeon Parties within the Election Period, then the Emdeon Parties will have the option to deliver an Election Notice to the Purchaser Selling Members within twenty (20) days after the expiration of the Election Period. Subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.1(b) and 9.4, the Emdeon Parties may assign the right to exercise all or part of the option to purchase Interest described in a particular Transfer Notice to one or more of its Affiliates or other Persons, in which case (i) the Emdeon Parties shall specify the Persons exercising such option and the amount of Interests to be acquired by each such assignee not less than ten (10) days before the consummation of the Proposed Transfer (provided that, in any event, all Interests specified in the relevant Transfer Notice shall be

purchased) and (ii) references to the Emdeon Parties in this Section 9.5 shall be deemed to refer to such assignees as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(c) Prior to the Transfer for value of any Interests in the Company by an Emdeon Party or a Member (other than a Purchaser Member Party) who has acquired its interests from an Emdeon Party and holds Units equal to at least 5% of the outstanding Units (other than to an Emdeon Permitted Transferee) (for purposes of this paragraph (c) and paragraph (d) below, a “Proposed Transfer”), such Member (the “Emdeon Selling Members”) shall give a Transfer Notice to the Company and the Purchaser Member Parties setting forth the desire to Transfer, which notice shall include the price and other material terms and conditions the Emdeon Selling Members would be willing to accept. Each such notice shall constitute a binding commitment by the applicable Member to sell the Interest referred to therein as provided in this Section 9.5.

(d) Upon receipt of such Transfer Notice, the Company (acting for purposes of this Section 9.5 upon the decision of the disinterested Directors) will have an option to purchase, in the aggregate, all (but not part) of the Interest described in the Transfer Notice in each case at the price specified in the Transfer Notice. If the Company desires to exercise the option set forth in the preceding sentence, it shall deliver an Election Notice to the Emdeon Selling Members and the Purchaser Member Parties within the Election Period. If the Company does not deliver an Election Notice before the end of the Election Period, then the Purchaser Member Parties shall have the option to deliver an Election Notice to the Emdeon Selling Members within twenty (20) days after the expiration of the Election Period. Subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.1(b) and 9.4, the Purchaser Member Parties may assign the right to exercise all or part of the option to purchase Interests described in a particular Transfer Notice to one or more of its Affiliates or other Persons, in which case (i) the Purchaser Member Parties shall specify the Persons exercising such option not less than ten (10) days before the consummation of the Proposed Transfer (provided that, in any event, all Interests specified in the relevant Transfer Notice shall be purchased) and (ii) references to the Purchaser Member Parties in this Section 9.5 shall be deemed to refer to such assignees as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(e) If the Company, the Emdeon Parties or the Purchaser Member Parties deliver an Election Notice, then such Members shall be obligated to purchase, and the applicable Member(s) shall be obligated to sell, the Interests described in such Transfer Notice at the cash price and on the other terms indicated in the notice, except that the closing of such purchase and sale shall be held on the tenth business day after the expiration of the Election Period at 9:00 a.m., local time, at the principal executive office of the Company, or at such other time and place as the parties to such purchase and sale may mutually agree.

(f) If a Member that is subject to the transfer restrictions of Section 9.5(a) or (c) has complied with the provisions of this Section 9.5 and no Election Notice is delivered pursuant thereto, such Member may, subject to the provisions of the last sentence of Section 9.1(a) and Section 9.1(b) hereof and compliance with the provisions of Section 9.6 or Section 9.7 hereof, Transfer the Interests described in the Transfer

Notice, but only for consideration consisting solely of cash and/or Marketable Securities and on terms and conditions that are no more favorable in any material respect to the purchaser than those specified in such Transfer Notice; provided, that (i) the restrictions set forth in Section 9.4 (in the case of a Transfer under Section 9.7) and the procedures of Section 9.6 or Section 9.7, as applicable, are met, (ii) the acquiring Person in such Transfer is not an Affiliate of the transferring Member, including, for purposes of the restriction in this Section 9.5(f)(ii), any portfolio company (A) controlled by the Purchaser Member Party or its Affiliates or (B) of which the Purchaser Member Party or its Affiliates beneficially own more than 10% of the Equity Securities, (iii) to the extent the transferring Member will receive Marketable Securities in the transaction, such Marketable Securities are of an issuer having a public market capitalization of at least $300 million, exclusive of the value of any such securities held by Affiliates of that issuer, and (iv) the closing of such Transfer takes place within sixty (60) business days following the termination of the Election Period. In addition, subject to the limitations contained in Section 8.2(a), in connection with any such Transfer, the transferring Member may assign the right to effect Demands and participate in piggyback registrations pursuant to Article VIII hereof. Any election by the Company or a Member not to exercise its rights under this Section 9.5 in any particular instance, shall not constitute a waiver of any rights it may otherwise have under this Agreement in connection with any other proposed Transfer of Interests. For purposes of this Agreement, “Marketable Securities” means any securities that are freely tradeable by the holder thereof on one or more established public markets, including, but not limited to, any securities (A) which are listed or traded on a United States national securities exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market or (B) quoted on an established quotation system within or outside the United States that supports sufficient trading activity and volume to allow for the orderly disposition of such securities by the holders thereof.

(g) At any closing held pursuant to this Section 9.5:

	(i)		The purchase price for the purchase for the relevant securities shall be paid in cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account that is specified in writing by the recipients thereof at least three (3) business days prior to the date of such closing) or by certified or official bank check.

	(ii)		The relevant Members shall deliver all certificates, if any, which represent the Units to be sold at such closing, duly endorsed for transfer with signatures guaranteed, to the purchasers thereof and shall authorize the Company (or the Company’s transfer agent, if any) to record in the Company’s books and records the transfer to such purchasers of the Units and Interests to be sold, including any Units and Interests not evidenced by certificates.

	(iii)		The relevant Members shall take all actions the purchasers shall reasonably request as necessary to vest in the applicable purchasers all Interest being sold, whether in certificated or uncertificated form, free and clear of all Encumbrances of any kind.

(h) The restrictions on Transfer pursuant to this Section 9.5 shall expire upon the occurrence of a Qualified IPO, and a sale pursuant to a Qualified IPO shall not be subject to this Section 9.5.

(a) At any time from and after the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Original Effective Date:

	(i)		the Emdeon Members may (A) cause a sale of the Company (by merger, sale of Interests or otherwise) as long as (x) the Company and the Purchaser Member are first provided the right to acquire the Emdeon Members’ Interest pursuant to Section 9.5 hereof and (y) the aggregate sale price in any such sale of the Company exceeds the greater of (I) the aggregate sale price implied in the Company’s or the Purchaser Member’s offer to the Emdeon Members (if any) pursuant to Section 9.5 and (II) the aggregate sales price implied by the Purchaser Valuation Floor, (B) cause a Refinancing or Recapitalization Transaction by the Company and a pro rata distribution to the Members or a redemption of Units by the Company, provided, that, the Company’s Leverage Ratio after giving effect to the incurrence of the Indebtedness incurred to fund any such Refinancing or Recapitalization Transaction does not exceed the Closing Leverage Ratio, further provided, that the aggregate net proceeds to be distributed to each Member following any such Refinancing or Recapitalization Transaction are not less than an amount equal to 30% of said Member’s Contributed Equity; and

	(ii)		the Purchaser Member may (A) cause a sale of the Company (by merger, sale of Interests or otherwise) as long as (x) the Company and the Emdeon Members are first provided the right to acquire the Purchaser Member’s Interest pursuant to Section 9.5 hereof and (y) the aggregate sale price in any such sale of the Company exceeds the greater of (I) the aggregate sale price implied in the offer (if any) made by the Company or the Emdeon Members to the Purchaser Member and (II) the aggregate sales price implied by the Emdeon Valuation Floor, (B) cause a Refinancing or Recapitalization Transaction by the Company and a pro rata distribution to the Members or a redemption of Units by the Company as long as the Company’s Leverage Ratio after giving effect to the incurrence of the Indebtedness incurred to fund any such Refinancing or Recapitalization Transaction does not exceed the Closing Leverage Ratio, further provided, that the aggregate net proceeds to be distributed to each Member following any such Refinancing or Recapitalization Transaction are not less than an amount equal to 30% of said Member’s Contributed Equity

(the transactions in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 9.6(a) above referred to as the “Drag Along Events”). The Initiating Member shall notify the Emdeon Members or the Purchaser Member, as the case may be, in advance of submitting a Drag-Along Notice in order to determine the Emdeon Valuation Floor or Purchaser Valuation Floor, respectively, for purposes of satisfaction of the conditions in (i)(A)(y) and (ii)(A)(y). Following receipt of such notification, the Emdeon Members or the Purchaser Member shall determine such amount within ten (10) days and submit it to the Initiating Member in writing reasonably setting out the calculation and any relevant assumptions. If the Initiating Member disputes such calculation, the parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any such dispute. If they are unable to resolve all such disputes within fifteen (15) days following submission to the Initiating Member, they shall submit such dispute to Deloitte & Touche LLP (or, if such firm shall decline or is unable to act or is not, at the time of such submission, independent of the Company, Emdeon Member and Purchaser, to another independent accounting firm of international reputation mutually acceptable to Emdeon Member and the Purchaser Member) (either Deloitte & Touche LLP or such other accounting firm being referred to herein as the “Independent Accounting Firm”), which shall, as soon as practicable after such submission, determine and report to the Emdeon Member and the Purchaser Member upon such remaining disputed items, and such report shall be final and binding. The Independent Accounting Firm shall address only those items in dispute. Following the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Original Effective Date the conditions in (i)(A)(y) and (ii)(A)(y) shall only include clause (I) of such condition.

(b) Each Member shall fully cooperate, cause the Company and its officers to fully cooperate (including by participating in management presentations or “road shows”) and cause its designees to the Board to consent to and approve any transaction or agreement approved by the Member initiating a Drag Along Event (the “Initiating Member”) that is reasonably required in order to effectuate any such Drag Along Event. In connection with any such Drag Along Event, the Members shall, if requested by the Initiating Member, be required to (x) waive any dissenters’ rights, appraisal rights or similar rights which such Member may have in connection therewith, (y) provide representations and indemnities with respect to ownership of their Interests in the Company free and clear of all liens and their respective power and authority to enter into and consummate the transaction and (z) provide other representations, warranties and indemnities (and, if necessary, to contribute sale or recapitalization proceeds to an escrow account to secure any such indemnification claims) on a several and pro rata basis with all other Members; provided, however, that the non-Initiating Members will not, unless and to the extent expressly provided in the Management Incentive Plan or any other management incentive or compensation plan binding on a non-Initiating Member, be required to make representations, warranties or indemnifications, other than with respect to their Interests, or to enter into non-competition or similar agreements or take on any other recourse, indemnification obligations or liability, other than with respect to a proportionate holdback, escrow or similar arrangement.

(c) The Initiating Member’s rights under this Section 9.6 shall be exercisable by written notice (a “Drag-Along Notice”) given by the Initiating Member to the Company and each other Member which shall (i) state that all of the Initiating Member’s

Units are to be sold, (ii) state the proposed purchase price per Unit and all other material terms and conditions of such sale (including the identity of the purchaser) and (iii) be accompanied by the written transfer agreement between such Initiating Member and such purchaser. In determining the proposed purchase price per Unit referred to in the foregoing clause (ii), there shall be taken into account any other consideration to be received, directly or indirectly, by the Initiating Member or its Affiliates in connection with or relating to the proposed sale transaction. Upon receipt of a Drag-Along Notice, each other Member shall be obligated to sell all of its Units (including, without limitation, its Profits Interests (including the Grant A Units)) in the case of a sale or redemption (and the corresponding portion of its Interest) upon substantially the same terms and conditions of such transaction (and otherwise take all reasonably necessary actions to cause consummation of the proposed transaction, including voting its Interest in favor of such transaction (if applicable) and becoming a party to the transfer agreement); provided, however, that the net proceeds from the Drag-Along Event shall be distributed among the Members in accordance with Section 12.3(b), except in the event that the Drag-Along Event constitutes a Sale, then in which case, the net proceeds from such Drag-Along Event shall be distributed among the Members in accordance with Section 9.1(d).

(d) The obligations of the Members to sell their Units (including, without limitation, Profits Interests (including the Grant A Units)) pursuant to this Section 9.6 are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

	(i)		each of the Members will receive the same proportion (on a pre-tax basis) of the aggregate consideration from such required sale that such Member would have received if such aggregate consideration had been distributed by the Company to the Members in a dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 12.3(b) (or Section 9.1(d) if applicable); and

	(ii)		any expenses incurred by the Members in connection with such transaction will be borne by the Members pro rata based upon their Units (including, without limitation, Profits Interests (including the Grant A Units)) being sold.

(e) The restrictions on Transfer pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall expire upon the occurrence of a Qualified IPO, and a sale pursuant to a Qualified IPO shall not be subject to this Section 9.6.

(f) At the Purchaser’s election, in connection with any Drag Along Event, the ultimate owners of Purchaser Corp. shall be entitled to sell all of the equity of Purchaser Corp. (and/or the equity of any direct or indirect corporate parent of such Purchaser Corp. whose only asset is the ownership of Purchaser Corp. and is subject to the same restrictions on its business or incurrence of liabilities as Purchaser Corp.) in such transaction in lieu of the Purchaser Member Parties selling all of its Units in such transaction, or where Purchaser Corp. owns Units immediately prior to such transaction, in lieu of Purchaser Corp. selling its Units in such transaction. Any such sale of the

equity of Purchaser Corp. in connection with any Drag Along Event shall be at a price equal to the per-Unit price applicable to the other Members or entities in such transaction multiplied by the number of Units owned by Purchaser Corp.

9.7 Tag-Along Right.

(a) In connection with any Transfer of Interests by an Emdeon Party or a Member (other than a Purchaser Member Party) who has acquired its Interests from an Emdeon Party and holds Units equal to at least 5% of the outstanding Units to one or more Persons that are not Emdeon Permitted Transferee(s), on the one hand, or by a Purchaser Member Party or a Member (other than an Emdeon Party) who has acquired its interests from a Purchaser Member Party and holds Units equal to at least 5% of the outstanding Units to one or more Persons that are not Purchaser Member Permitted Transferee(s), on the other hand (in either case, a “Tag-Along Seller”), (a “Tag-Along Sale Transaction”), each other such Member other than the Plan Member (an “Other Member”) shall have the right to sell a pro rata portion of their Units (based on the proportion that the portion of the Tag-Along Seller’s Units proposed to be transferred bear to the Tag-Along Seller’s total Units) to such third party for the same price per Unit and on the same other terms and conditions as are applicable to the Tag-Along Seller, including, without limitation, that any such Other Member will be required to make the same representations, warranties or indemnifications (and, if necessary, to contribute proceeds to an escrow account to secure any such indemnification claims) on a several and pro rata basis with all other participating Members with respect to its Interests, and to take on any other recourse or liability, as applicable to the Tag-Along Seller in connection with such Tag-Along Sale Transaction (a “Tag-Along Right”); provided, however, that the Other Member will not be required to make representations, warranties or indemnifications with respect to any Purchaser Corp., or to enter into non-competition or similar agreements or take on any other recourse, indemnification obligations or liability, other than with respect to a proportionate holdback, escrow or similar arrangement.

(b) If the Tag-Along Seller wishes to complete a Tag-Along Sale Transaction, the Tag-Along Seller will send a notice to the Other Members (a “Sale Notice”), which Sale Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed Tag-Along Sale Transaction, including, without limitation, the price and material terms thereof. In determining the price for purposes of the foregoing sentence, there shall be taken into account any other consideration to be received, directly or indirectly, by the Tag-Along Seller or its Affiliates in connection with or relating to the Tag-Along Sale Transaction. Each Other Member receiving the Sale Notice will have the right to exercise its Tag-Along Right by written notice (a “Tag-Along Notice”) given by the Other Member to the Tag-Along Seller which shall state the portion of such Member’s Units to be sold. An Other Member must elect to exercise its Tag-Along Right under this Section 9.7(b) by delivering a Tag-Along Notice to the Tag-Along Seller in writing within ten (10) business days of the receipt of a Sale Notice. Upon receipt of a Tag-Along Notice, each such Other Member shall be irrevocably obligated to Transfer a pro rata portion of its Units (and the corresponding portion of its Interest) for a purchase price equal to the purchase price per Unit described in the Sale Notice, and upon the other terms and

conditions of such transaction (and otherwise take all reasonably necessary action to cause consummation of the proposed transaction and becoming a party to the transfer agreement).

(c) If any Other Member elects not to exercise or fails to exercise its Tag-Along Right within ten (10) business days of receipt of the Sale Notice, the Tag-Along Seller may, within 90 days after delivery of the Sale Notice to the Other Members, consummate the Tag-Along Sale Transaction on the terms and conditions described in the Sale Notice and without selling any portion of the Interests held by any Other Member so electing not to or failing to exercise its Tag-Along Right. If the terms and conditions of the Tag-Along Sale Transaction are revised to be more favorable to the Tag-Along Seller than those described in the Sale Notice, the proposed Tag-Along Sale Transaction to be conducted will be considered a separate Tag-Along Sale Transaction and shall be subject to the Tag-Along Right and shall require compliance by the Tag-Along Seller with the procedure described in this Section 9.7.

(d) The restrictions on Transfer pursuant to this Section 9.7 shall expire upon the occurrence of a Qualified IPO, and a sale pursuant to a Qualified IPO shall not be subject to this Section 9.7.

(e) At the Purchaser’s election, in connection with any Tag-Along Sale Transaction, the ultimate owners of Purchaser Corp. shall be entitled to sell equity interests of Purchaser Corp. (and/or the equity of any direct or indirect corporate parent of Purchaser Corp. whose only asset is the ownership of Purchaser Corp. and is subject to the same restrictions on its business or incurrence of liabilities as Purchaser Corp.) in such transaction in lieu of, or in combination with, Purchaser selling Units in such transaction. Any such sale of the equity of Purchaser Corp. in connection with any Tag-Along Sale Transaction shall be at a price equal to the per-Unit price applicable to the other Members or entities in such transaction multiplied by the number of Units owned and to be transferred by Purchaser Corp. If Purchaser elects to sell the interests of Purchaser Corp. in any Tag-Along Transaction, none of the other Members (including any Tag-Along Seller) shall be required to make any representations and warranties, or provide any indemnification with respect to, Purchaser Corp. or any liabilities, transactions or other circumstances arising solely out of or relating to Purchaser Corp.

9.8 Transfers Upon Liquidation of the Financial Investor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX, the Purchaser Member may Transfer all, but not less than all, of its Interest to its members, limited partners or other equity owners (“Purchaser Equity Owners”) in connection with the distribution of the assets or the Equity Securities of the Purchaser Member upon the final termination or liquidation of the Purchaser Member under applicable law, subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.1(b) and Section 9.4. The Interest so Transferred and distributed shall be subject to (i) restrictions on any further Transfers by the Purchaser Equity Owners to any other Person other than an Affiliate (subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.4) and (ii) a “drag-along” right in favor of the Emdeon Members giving them the right to cause all such Purchaser Equity Owners to Transfer all of the

Interest held by them in connection with any Transfer of the Emdeon Member’s Interest to any Person in accordance with this Agreement. The terms and conditions of the restrictions on transfer and drag-along rights referred to in this Section 9.8 shall be in writing and (A) shall be of the type customary and appropriate (1) in application to a limited liability company having a substantial number of minority interest holders and (2) to afford the Emdeon Members with the rights and protections associated with a drag-along right that would not impair the Emdeon Member’s ability to affect a transaction involving a sale of the Interests by causing all such minority interest holders to participate, and sell their interests in, that transaction, (B) such terms and conditions shall be otherwise satisfactory to the Emdeon Members in their sole discretion prior to the effectiveness of any Transfer or Distribution of a Purchaser Member’s Interest to the Purchaser Equity Owners, and (C) this Agreement shall be amended as necessary or desirable in connection therewith.

9.9 Preemptive Rights.

(a) The Company shall not issue, sell or exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange any Units or other Equity Securities of the Company to any Person (collectively, the “Preemptive Securities”) unless, in each case, the Company shall have first offered to sell to each holder of Interests other than the Plan Member (each a “Preemptive Holder”) such Preemptive Holder’s Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities, at a price and on such other terms as shall have been specified by the Company in writing delivered to each such Preemptive Holder (the “Preemptive Offer”), which Preemptive Offer shall by its terms remain open and irrevocable for a period of at least thirty (30) calendar days from the date it is delivered by the Company (the “Preemptive Offer Period”). Each Preemptive Holder may elect to purchase all or any portion of such Preemptive Holder’s Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities as specified in the Preemptive Offer at the price and upon the terms specified therein by delivering written notice of such election to the Company as soon as practical but in any event within the Preemptive Offer Period; provided that if the Company is issuing Equity Securities together as a unit with any debt securities or other Equity Securities, then any Preemptive Holder who elects to purchase the Preemptive Securities pursuant to this Section 9.9 must purchase the same proportionate mix of all of such securities; provided further that if the Company is issuing securities that would entitle the holder thereof to vote, then a Preemptive Holder may elect not to have any voting rights with respect to such securities, and if such election is made, such Preemptive Holder shall not have any voting rights with respect to such securities.

(b) Each Preemptive Holder’s “Preemptive Share” of Preemptive Securities shall be determined as follows: the total number of Preemptive Securities, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the number of Units then held, directly or indirectly, by such Preemptive Holder, and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of Units then held by all Preemptive Holders (including such Preemptive Holder).

(c) Upon the expiration of the Preemptive Offer Period, the Company shall offer to sell to the Preemptive Holders that have elected to purchase all of their

Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities any Preemptive Securities that have not otherwise been acquired by the Preemptive Holders, at the same price and on the same terms as those specified in the Preemptive Offer, and such Preemptive Holders shall have the right to acquire all or any portion of such Preemptive Securities within thirty (30) calendar days following the expiration of the Preemptive Offer Period (such period, the “Preemptive Reoffer Period”).

(d) Upon the expiration of the Preemptive Offer Period or the Preemptive Reoffer Period, as applicable, the Company shall be entitled to sell such Preemptive Securities which the Preemptive Holders have not elected to purchase for a period ending on the later to occur of (i) one hundred twenty (120) calendar days following the expiration of the Preemptive Offer Period or the Preemptive Reoffer Period, as applicable, or (ii) if a definitive agreement to Transfer the Preemptive Securities is entered into by the Company within such one hundred twenty (120) calendar day period, the date on which all applicable approvals and consents of Governmental Entities and other Persons with respect to such proposed Transfer have been obtained and any applicable waiting periods under Law have expired or been terminated, in each case on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Preemptive Holders. Each of the Company and the Members hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain, or to assist the Company or any other Member in promptly obtaining, all of the foregoing approvals and consents and to take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Company or any other Member in connection with such Transfer. Any Preemptive Securities to be sold by the Company following the expiration of such period must be reoffered to the Preemptive Holders pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.9 or if any such agreement to Transfer is terminated.

(e) The provisions of this Section 9.9 shall not apply to the following issuances of Equity Securities:

	(i)		Profits Interests issued pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan or another management incentive or compensation plan;

	(ii)		securities issued by the Company in connection with a Public Offering;

	(iii)		securities issued as consideration in acquisitions or commercial borrowings that are not primarily equity or equity-linked financings; and

	(iv)		a subdivision of Units or Interests, any combination of Units or Interests (including any reverse Unit or Interest split) or any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or conversion of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(f) The preemptive rights granted in this Section 9.9 shall terminate upon the consummation of a Qualified IPO, and a sale pursuant to a Qualified IPO shall not be subject to this Section 9.9.

9.10 Emdeon Change of Control.

In the event of the completion or consummation of an Emdeon Change of Control, the Emdeon Members shall provide written notice thereof to the Purchaser. From and after an election by the Purchaser Member made within sixty (60) days following the later of (i) the date the Purchaser Member becomes aware of the consummation of an Emdeon Change of Control and (ii) its receipt of notice from Emdeon of the consummation of an Emdeon Change of Control, notwithstanding the limitations based on the passage of time in Section 8.2(b) or Section 9.6(a), the Purchaser Member may initiate a Liquidity Event (subject to the other conditions of such Liquidity Event not based on the passage of time) on the terms provided in Article VIII or Section 9.6.

11.5 Withholding Tax Payments and Obligations.

If withholding taxes are paid or required to be paid in respect of payments made to or by the Company, such payments or obligations shall be treated as follows:

(a) If the Company receives proceeds in respect of which a tax has been withheld, the Company shall be treated as having received cash in an amount equal to the amount of such withheld tax, and, for all purposes of this Agreement but subject to Section 11.5(d), each Member shall be treated as having received a distribution pursuant to Section 5.1 equal to the portion of the withholding tax allocable to such Member, as determined by the Board in its discretion

(b) The Company is authorized to withhold from any payment made to, or any distributive share of, a Member any taxes required by law to be withheld.

(c) Neither the Company nor the Board shall be liable for any excess taxes withheld in respect of any Member, and, in the event of overwithholding, a Member’s sole recourse shall be to apply for a refund from the appropriate governmental authority.

(d) Any taxes withheld pursuant to Sections 11.5(a) or (b) shall be treated as if distributed to the relevant Member to the extent an amount equal to such withheld taxes would then be distributable to such Member, and, to the extent in excess of such distributable amounts, as a demand loan payable by the Member to the Company with interest at the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, compounded annually. The Board may, in its discretion, either demand payment of the principal and accrued interest on such demand loan at any time, and enforce payment thereof by legal process, or may withhold from one or more distributions to a Member amounts sufficient to satisfy such Member’s obligations under any such demand loan.

(e) If the Company is required by law to make any payment to a Governmental Entity that is specifically attributable to a Member or a Member’s status as such (including, without limitation, federal withholding taxes, state personal property taxes, and state unincorporated business taxes), then such Member shall indemnify and contribute to the Company in full for the entire amount of taxes paid (plus interest, penalties and related expenses if the failure of the Company to make such payment is due to the fault of the Member) (which payment shall not be deemed a Capital Contribution for purposes of this Agreement). The Board may offset distributions to which a Person is otherwise entitled under this Agreement against such Person’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 11.5.

(f) If the Company, the Board or any of their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, managers and, as determined by the Board in its discretion, consultants or agents, becomes liable as

a result of a failure to withhold and remit taxes in respect of any Member, then such Member shall provide evidence satisfactory to the Board that it has paid the taxes to which the failure to withhold relates and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Board or any of their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, managers and, as determined by the Board in its discretion, consultants or agents, as the case may be, in respect of all taxes, including interest and penalties, and any expenses incurred in any examination, determination, resolution and payment of such liability if the liability for failure to withhold and remit taxes was due to the fault of the Member. The provisions contained in this Section 11.5(f) shall survive the termination of the Company, the termination of this Agreement and the Transfer of any Interest.

(g) In the event that the Company receives a refund of taxes previously withheld by a third party from one or more payments to the Company, the economic benefit of such refund shall be apportioned among the Members in a manner reasonably determined by the Board to offset the prior operation of this Section 11.5 in respect of such withheld taxes.
