The number of RSUs. Upon Granted PBRSUs that become “vested” for purposes of this Agreement (which, for the sake of clarity and avoidance of doubt, may be less than or greater than the number of PBRSUs specified above as having been granted on the Grant Date) shall equal the product of (x) the number of the Granted PBRSUs that have satisfied the Time-Based Condition and (y) the percentage level at which the Performance-Based Condition has been satisfied.
(i) The Time-Based Condition shall be satisfied as to equal 1/3rd installments of the Granted PBRSUs on each Vesting of (A) Performance Measurement Date (oras defined below), if applicable(B) the 12-month anniversary of the Performance Measurement Date, an earlier vesting date pursuant to Section 3(band (C) belowthe 24-month anniversary of the Performance Measurement Date (each, which, in such event, shall also be hereinafter referred to as the a “Time-Vesting Date”), the Company shall settle the vested portion of the RSUs and shall therefore, in each case subject to the payment of any taxes pursuant Participant not having ceased to perform services to the Company, except as provided in Section 8(b2(c), issue and deliver prior to the Participant one share of Common Stock for each RSU that vests on such Vesting Date (the “RSU Shares”).

The maximum number of Granted PBRSUs that satisfy the Performance-Based Condition and thus become “vested” cannot exceed [•]% of the date Granted PBRSUs. For each Performance Goal, performance between Threshold and Target or between Target and Maximum will be determined on a pro-rata basis using straight-line interpolation between the Achievement Percentages for the relevant levels of the consummation of the Change in Control Eventperformance. Example: If Cumulative Adjusted EBITDA is $[•], the Participant’s employment or other relationship as an Eligible Participant with Achievement Percentage for Cumulative Adjusted EBITDA is [•]%. If End-to-End RCM Agreement Growth is $[•], the Company or Achievement Percentage for End-to-End RCM Agreement Growth is [•]%. If Modular Sales Revenue is $[•], the Acquiring Corporation Achievement Percentage for Modular Sales Revenue is terminated for Good Reason by [•]%. Accordingly, the Participant or percentage level at which the Performance-Based Condition is terminated without Cause by satisfied, after giving weight to the Company or the Acquiring Corporationdifferent Performance Goals at [•]%, [•]% and [•]%, respectively, is [•]%.
