(a) In the event that any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted or that any claim or demand shall be asserted by any Person in respect of which payment may be sought under Section 10.2 hereof (regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 10.3) (“Indemnification Claim”), the indemnified party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Indemnification Claim of which it has knowledge which is covered by this indemnity to be forwarded to the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder; provided that the indemnifying party shall have acknowledged in writing to the indemnified party its unqualified obligation to indemnify the indemnified party as provided hereunder; provided, further, that if the indemnifying party is the Sellers, then such indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Indemnification Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a healthcare service plan, other payor, vendor, supplier or customer of the Business, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. If the indemnifying party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, it shall within five (5) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Indemnification Claim so requires) notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so. If the indemnifying party (i) elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, (ii) fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided, (iii) contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agreement or (iv) fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Indemnification, then the indemnified party may pay, compromise, defend against, negotiate or otherwise deal with such Indemnification Claim and obtain indemnification from the indemnifying party for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Indemnification Claim. If the indemnified party defends any Indemnification Claim, then the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for the expenses of defending such Indemnification Claim upon submission of periodic bills. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Indemnification Claim, the indemnified party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party if (i) so requested by the indemnifying party to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any Indemnification Claim. The parties shall fully cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Indemnification Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 10.1) records relating to such Indemnification Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Indemnification Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.4 to the contrary, neither the indemnifying party nor the indemnified party shall, without the written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Indemnification Claim.

(b) After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to an Indemnification Claim hereunder, the indemnified party shall forward to the indemnifying party notice of any sums due and owing by the indemnifying party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter and the indemnifying party shall be required to pay all of the sums so due and owing to the indemnified party by wire transfer of immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice. The parties hereto agree that should an indemnifying party not make full payment of any such obligations within such ten (10) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of the agreement of the indemnifying party or final adjudication to including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to four percent (4%). Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

(c) The failure of the indemnified party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Indemnification Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the indemnifying party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as a result of such failure.

10.5 Effect of Knowledge. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate.

10.6 Other Rights Not Affected. The indemnification rights of the parties under this Article X are independent of, and in addition to, such rights and remedies as the parties may have at Law or in equity or otherwise for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any covenant, agreement or obligation hereunder on the part of any party hereto, including the right to seek specific performance, rescission or restitution, none of which rights or remedies shall be affected or diminished hereby.

10.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The Sellers and the Purchaser agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article X as an adjustment to the purchase price for federal, state, local and foreign income Tax purposes. If, notwithstanding the treatment required by the preceding sentence, any indemnification payment under Article X (including this Section 10.7) is determined to be taxable to the party receiving such payment by any Taxing Authority, the paying party shall also indemnify the party receiving such payment for any Taxes incurred by reason of the receipt of such payment and any expenses incurred by the party receiving such payment in connection with such Taxes (or any asserted deficiency, claim, demand, action, suit, proceeding, judgment or assessment, including the defense or settlement thereof, relating to such Taxes).

ARTICLE XI

TAX MATTERS

11.1 Prorations. The Sellers shall bear all property and ad valorem tax liability with respect to the Company’s assets if the Lien or assessment date arises prior to the Closing Date irrespective of the reporting and payment dates of such Taxes. All other real property taxes, personal property taxes, or ad valorem obligations and similar recurring taxes for taxable periods beginning before, and ending after, the Closing Date, shall be prorated between the Purchaser and the Seller as of 12:01 a.m. pacific standard time on the Closing Date. With respect to Taxes described in this Section 11.2, the Sellers shall timely file all Tax Returns due before the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes and the Purchaser shall prepare and timely file all Tax Returns due after the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes. If one party remits to the appropriate Taxing Authority payment for Taxes, which are subject to proration under this Section 11.2 and such payment includes the other party’s share of such Taxes, such other party shall promptly reimburse the remitting party for its share of such Taxes.

11.2 Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Purchaser and the Sellers shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the assets of the Company as is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, claim for refund or other required or optional filings relating to Tax matters, for the preparation for any Tax audit, for the preparation for any Tax protest, for the prosecution or defense of any suit or other proceeding relating to Tax matters.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall bear their own fees and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each other agreement, document and instrument contemplated by this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

12.2 [Intentionally Omitted.]

12.3 Arbitration. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with, or related to the interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration (“Arbitration”) initiated and administered by and in accordance with the then existing Rules of Practice and Procedures of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”). The Arbitration shall be held in Los Angeles County, California; the exact time and location to be decided by a sole arbitrator selected by mutual agreement of the Parties or in accordance with the then existing Rules of Practice and Procedures of JAMS. The arbitrator shall have the power to grant all legal and equitable remedies provided by California or federal law; provided, however, that said arbitrator shall be bound by applicable statutory and case law in rendering a decision, and provided, further, that said arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive or exemplary damages. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and unreviewable except for those grounds set forth in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1286.2. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, and the award may be judicially enforced. The prevailing Party in any Arbitration hereunder shall be awarded reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert and nonexpert witness fees and costs, and expenses incurred directly or indirectly with said Arbitration, including but not limited to the fees and expenses of the arbitrator and any other expenses of the Arbitration.

12.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the schedules and exhibits hereto, Seller Documents, and Purchaser Documents) represents the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among or between any of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

12.5 Amendment; Waiver; Remedies. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

12.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made and performed in such state.

12.7 Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered to any party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed properly delivered, given and received: (i) if delivered by hand, when delivered; (ii) if sent on a Business Day by facsimile transmission before 5:00 p.m. (recipient’s time) on the day sent by facsimile and receipt is confirmed, when transmitted; (iii) if sent by facsimile transmission or by e-mail of a PDF document on a day other than a Business Day and receipt is confirmed, or if sent by facsimile transmission or by email of a PDF document after 5:00 p.m. (recipient’s time) on the day sent by facsimile or email and receipt is confirmed, on the Business Day following the date on which receipt is confirmed; (iv) if sent by registered, certified or first class mail, the third Business Day after being sent; and (v) if sent by overnight delivery via a national courier service, two Business Days after being delivered to such courier, in each case to the address or facsimile telephone number set forth beneath the name of such party below (or to such other address or facsimile telephone number as such party shall have specified in a written notice given to the other parties hereto):

12.8 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

12.9 Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any person or entity not a party to this Agreement except as provided below. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by either the Sellers or the Purchaser (by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void; provided, however, that the Purchaser may assign this Agreement and any or all rights or obligations hereunder (including the Purchaser’s rights to seek indemnification hereunder) to any Affiliate of the Purchaser.

12.10 Non-Recourse. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of the Purchaser shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the Purchaser under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby.

12.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in PDF format or by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

12.12 Purchaser’s Right of Set Off. The Purchaser may set off any amount to which it may be entitled under this Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate executed in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement against amounts otherwise payable to the Sellers under this Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate executed in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Contingent Purchase Payment. Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of set off will constitute an election of remedies or limit the Purchaser in any way in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.

12.13 Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections contained in this Agreement, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular representation or warranty set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered section or subsection of this Agreement, except to the extent that such information is cross-referenced in another part of the Disclosure Schedule or it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that it is relevant to any part of the Disclosure Schedule. From time to time prior to the Closing, the Sellers and the Company shall have the right to supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered after the delivery of the Disclosure Schedules pursuant to this Agreement. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement, unless the applicable part of the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. The mere listing of a document or other item in, or attachment of a copy thereof to, the Disclosure Schedule will not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement (unless the representation or warranty pertains directly to the existence of the document or other item itself). No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Disclosure Schedule shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule. No disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation occurred or exists. In disclosing the information set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, the Sellers do not waive, and expressly reserves, any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed herein.

12.14 Tax and Government Reimbursement Program Effect. None of the parties (nor such parties’ counsel or accountants) has made or is making in this Agreement any representation to any other party (or such party’s counsel or accountants) concerning any of the Tax or Government Reimbursement Program effects or consequences on the other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party represents that it has obtained, or may obtain, independent advice concerning the Tax and Government Reimbursement Program with respect thereto and upon which it, if so obtained, has solely relied.

12.15 Attorneys’ Fees. The non-prevailing party in any action or proceeding related to this Agreement shall pay to the prevailing party reasonable fees and costs incurred in such proceeding or action, including attorneys’ fees and costs and the fees and costs of experts and consultants. The prevailing party shall be the party who is entitled to recover its costs of suit (as determined by the court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator or mediator), whether or not the action or proceeding proceeds to final judgment or award

12.16 Consent and Waiver. By the execution of this Agreement, each of the Company and the Sellers hereby waives any right it/he has under the Shareholders’ Agreement dated 2/1/2012 between the Company and the Sellers, to buy or to restrict the sale of the Shares. Each of the Company and the Sellers hereby consent to the terms of the transaction for sale of the Shares as contained in this Agreement.
