The Option Period shall be any period during which the Sharing Percentage of DHCC and its affiliates in the Company is less than twenty percent (20%).

2. DETERMINATION OF PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price (herein so called) shall be the product determined by multiplying (i) the Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company (hereinafter defined), times (ii) DHCC’s Sharing Percentage; provided, however, that during the first two (2) years following the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall not be less than the price determined in the Assets Valuation ($10,000 per Unit). For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company” shall Mean the fair market value of the Company, as determined in accordance with Section ;4 of this Agreement.

3. EXERCISE OF OPTION TO PURCHASE.

The closing of such sale (the “Call Closing”) shall take place on a mutually acceptable date and time (the “Purchase Date”) (which date shall not be earlier than ninety (90) days and not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date on which the Exercise Notice is delivered). Notwithstanding the delivery by Triad Sub to DHCC of the Exercise Notice, for a period of ninety (90) days following the receipt of the Exercise Notice and provided the Option to Purchase between DHCC and Triad Sub dated the date hereof has not terminated, DHCC shall have the option (pursuant to the Option to Purchase) to purchase additional Units in the Company which would give DHCC and its affiliates a Sharing Percentage of at least twenty

(iv) if subsections (i) through (iii) above are inapplicable and two Valuations are within 10% of one another (i.e., if the higher of such two Valuations is no greater than 1.10 times the lower of such two Valuations), the Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company shall be the average of Such two Valuations;

(v) if subsections (i) through (iv) above are inapplicable and the three Valuation are within 20% of one another (i.e., if each of the highest Valuation and the middle Valuation is no greater than 1.20 times the lowest Valuation), the Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company shall be the average of all three Valuations;

(vi) if subsections (i) through (v) above are inapplicable and two Valuations are within 20% of one another (i.e., if the higher of such two Valuations is no greater than 1.20 times the lower of such two Valuations), the Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company shall be the average of such two Valuations; and

(vii) if subsections (i) through (vi) above are inapplicable, the Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company shall be the average of all three Valuations.

CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

The undersigned, Deaconess Health Care Corporation (“Contributor”), hereby agrees to contribute to Deaconess Hospital Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), $100 in exchange for 100% of the membership interests in the Company (the “Interest”). Contributor understands that the Interest to be issued pursuant to this Contribution Agreement will be issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), in reliance upon the private offering exemption contained in Section 4(2) of the Act and that such reliance is based in part on Contributor’s representation set forth below. For the foregoing reasons and to induce the Company to issue and deliver the Interest to the undersigned, Contributor represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) Contributor has not offered or sold the Interest within the meaning of the Act;

(b) Contributor is acquiring the Interest for its own account for investment, with no present intention of dividing its interest with others or of reselling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion thereof;

(c) Contributor does not have in mind any sale of the Interest either currently or after the passage of a fixed or determinable period of time or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any predetermined event or circumstance;

(d) Contributor has no present or contemplated agreement, undertaking, arrangement, obligation, indebtedness, or commitment providing for, or which is likely to compel, a disposition of the Interest;

(e) Contributor is not aware of any circumstances presently in existence which are likely to prompt a disposition of the Interest in the future;

(f) the Interest was offered to Contributor by the Company through direct communication between Contributor and the Company and not through any advertisement of any kind;

(g) the Company has given Contributor access to (i) all information relating to its capital structure and its business operations and (ii) all additional information which Contributor has felt necessary to evaluate its contemplated purchase of the Interest. In this regard Contributor possesses the financial and business experience in the area in which the Company will be involved to make an informed decision to purchase the Interest;

(h) Contributor has the financial means to bear the economic risk of the investment, which Contributor hereby agrees to make;

(i) Contributor is not itself and none of Contributor’s initial capital contribution described herein and hereafter contributed to the Company arises from an “employee benefit plan” as such term is defined by Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1976, as amended (“ERISA”), whether or not subject to the provision of Title I of ERISA or whether or

not a “plan” as defined by Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and

(j) in the event of a disposition of any of Contributor’s Interest by sale, gift, transfer, pledge or otherwise, Contributor ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to give to the Company prior to such disposition written notice describing the proposed disposition. No such disposition shall be made except in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Limited Liability Company Agreement. No such disposition shall be made unless or until Contributor has furnished to the Company an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the proposed disposition does not require registration pursuant to the Act or any state securities laws.

This Contribution Agreement will also confirm Contributor’s understanding that certificates evidencing the Interest will not be issued.

Contributor understands that (i) the Interest will not be registered under the Act and applicable securities laws; (ii) the Interest must be held indefinitely unless the disposition thereof is registered under the Act and applicable securities laws or an exemption from such registration requirements is available; (iii) the Company is under no obligation and has made no commitment to provide any such registration or to take such steps as are necessary to permit the sale without registration, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act or otherwise; (iv) if the Interest may be disposed of without such registration in reliance on Rule 144 under the Act, such disposition can be made only in limited amounts in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Rule; and (v) if the Rule 144 exemption is not available, compliance with another registration exemption will be required.

Contributor hereby indemnifies and agree to hold the Company and its representatives, managers, officers, employees, and agents harmless from and against any claims, damages, or liability in connection with any transfer of the Interest inconsistent with this Contribution Agreement.
