7.Restricted Activities.

7.1 Preliminary Statement. Executive acknowledges that by virtue of Executive’s duties under this Agreement, Executive shall become aware of sensitive and confidential information of the Company, and shall develop contacts and relationships which Executive otherwise would not have had access to or developed. Executive further acknowledges



that such information and relationships would give Executive an unfair competitive advantage should Executive compete with the Company. Executive further acknowledges that Executive may also become aware of certain confidential information relating to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (each, a “Related Company” and collectively, the “Related Companies”) and will develop certain contacts and relationships with clients or customers of the Company or a Related Company which would give Executive an unfair competitive advantage if Executive should compete with the Company or any such Related Company. Accordingly, Executive agrees that Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether alone or as a partner, officer, director, investor, employee, agent, member or shareholder of any other entity or corporation (other than the Company or any of the Related Companies), without the prior written consent of the Company, violate any of the covenants (the “Covenants”) set forth in this Section 7.

7.2 Covenant Not to Divulge Confidential Information. During the term of Executive’s employment with the Company, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and after termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board, (i) use any Confidential Information of or concerning the Company or the Related Companies except for the Company’s or a Related Company’s benefit or (ii) disclose or divulge to any third party any Confidential Information relating to the Company or the Related Companies, except for the Company’s or a Related Company’s benefit or as otherwise required by law. “Confidential Information” shall mean information concerning the Company or any Related Company. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Confidential Information shall not include (a) any information that is, or becomes, generally available to the public (unless such availability occurs as a result of the Executive’s breach of any portion of this Section 7.2), (b) any information that is lawfully acquired by Executive from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation or any information that is independently developed by or on behalf of Executive without use of Confidential Information.

7.3 Covenant Not to Compete or Interfere with Business Relationships. During the term of Executive’s employment with the Company, and continuing until the end of the Severance Period (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not engage in the following activities:

a.Executive shall not, within the Restricted Geographic Area, engage in any activity competitive with the Company or any Related Company. “Restricted Geographic Area” shall mean any state in which the Company or any Related Company is providing management services to, or operating, a medical practice as of the termination date of Executive’s employment under this Agreement.

b.Executive shall not solicit or hire (for Executive or on behalf of a third party) any person who is then, or within one hundred eighty (180) days prior to termination of this Agreement was, an employee, service provider, or contractor (including, without limitation, any Contract Physicians) of the Company or any Related Company; provided, however, that that the general solicitation by the Executive conducted, directly or indirectly, in newspapers, trade journals, the Internet, or by any similar media shall not be deemed to be an attempt to induce, attempt to induce, or attempt to hire any officer, manager, director, or employee of any member of the Company or any Related Company or cause any such person to leave the employ of any member of the Company or any Related Company or otherwise interfere with any relationship



between any such person and any member of the Company or any Related Company in contravention of, or be deemed to otherwise violate, this Section 7.3. “Contract Physicians” shall include those physicians with whom the Company or any Related Company then has a contract, or which have actively been recruited by the Company or any Related Company within one hundred eighty (180) days prior to termination of this Agreement.

c.Executive shall not induce or attempt to induce any person or entity doing business with the Company or any Related Company, to terminate such relationship, or engage in any other activity detrimental to Company or any Related Company.

d.Executive shall not, within the Restricted Geographic Area, be employed by nor have any financial relationship (except as the holder of not more than one percent (1%) of the outstanding stock of a publicly held company) with any entity which directly or indirectly performs any competitive activity which Executive is individually prohibited from performing under the terms of this Agreement (a “Competing Entity”).

e.Notwithstanding the restrictions specified in this Section 7, nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit Executive from owning, solely as a passive investment, the securities of an entity which are not publicly traded provided that such entity is not engaged in a principal business of providing physician services to patients.

7.4 Construction. The Covenants are essential elements of this Agreement. The period of time during which Executive is prohibited from engaging in the business practices described in any Covenant shall be extended by any length of time during which Executive is in breach of such Covenant. The Company and Executive agree that the Covenants are appropriate and reasonable when considered in light of the nature and extent of the business conducted by the Company. However, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of the Covenants, including without limitation, the specific time period, scope or geographical area, is unreasonable or against public policy, then such Covenants shall be considered divisible as to time, scope, and geographic area and the maximum time period, scope or geographic area which is determined to be reasonable and not against public policy shall be enforced.

7.5 Remedies. The parties agree that if Executive breaches any Covenant, the Company or the Related Companies, as applicable, may suffer irreparable damages. Executive agrees that (i) damages at law will be difficult to measure and an insufficient remedy to the Company or a Related Company in the event that Executive violates the terms of this Section 7 and (ii) the Company and the Related Companies shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to enforce the provisions of this Section 7 without proving actual damages, which injunctive relief shall be in addition to any other rights or remedies available to the Company or the Related Companies. No remedy shall be exclusive of any other, and neither application for nor obtaining injunctive or other relief shall preclude any other remedy available, including money damages. The non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party all of its all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred relating to the enforcement of the terms of this Section 7, associated with litigation, including, if any, in appellate proceedings. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Related Companies are intended beneficiaries of the Covenants



and shall have the same rights and remedies as the Company to enforce the Covenants.

8.Inventions and Intellectual Property. Executive acknowledges that all developments, including, without limitation, inventions, patentable or otherwise, discoveries, improvements, patents, trade secrets, designs, reports, computer software, flow charts and diagrams, procedures, data, documentation, ideas and writings and applications thereof relating to the present or planned business of the Company or any Related Company that, alone or jointly with others, Executive may conceive, create, make, develop, reduce to practice or acquire during the term of this Agreement in connection with Executive’s performance of his duties under this Agreement (collectively, the “Developments”) are works made for hire and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and Executive hereby assigns to the Company all of Executive’s right, title and interest in and to all such Developments. All related items, including, but not limited to, memoranda, notes, lists, charts, drawings, records, files, computer software, programs, source and programming narratives and other documentation (and all copies thereof) made or compiled by Executive, or made available to Executive, concerning the business or planned business of the Company or any Related Company shall be the property of the Company and shall be delivered to the Company promptly upon the termination of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.Death. If Executive dies before the date on which all amounts owing to the Executive hereunder are paid in full, the Company shall pay to Executive’s estate (or such other recipient as designated from time to time by Executive in writing) such remaining amounts when and as such amounts were otherwise payable to Executive. After receiving the payments provided under this Section 9, Executive and Executive’s estate shall have no further rights against the Company for Compensation under this Agreement.

10.Assignment and Binding Effect. Executive may not sell, assign, transfer, or otherwise convey any of Executive’s rights or delegate any of Executive’s duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective legal successors, permitted assigns, heirs, representatives and beneficiaries.

11.Entire Agreement and Modification. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersedes all existing agreements between them concerning such subject matter, and may be modified only by a written instrument duly executed by both parties.

12.Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing. Any waiver by any party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement.

To the extent of any compliance issues or ambiguous terms, this Agreement shall be construed in such a manner so as to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC” or “Code”), and the rules set forth in this Section 23(a) shall apply with respect to any payments that may be subject to Section 409A of the Code notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.

b. Timing of Payments. Notwithstanding the applicable provisions of this Agreement regarding the timing of payments, any payment due hereunder which is contingent upon receipt of the Release described in Section 6.5 shall be made, if at all, in accordance with this Section 23(b), and only if Executive has delivered to the Company a properly executed Release for which all legally mandated revocation rights of the Executive have expired prior to the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of termination. Any such payment shall be made after receipt of such executed and irrevocable Release within such sixty (60) period, unless otherwise scheduled to be made after such period pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, if the sixty (60) day period for such payments begins in one taxable year of Executive and ends in a second taxable year of Executive, any payments otherwise payable within such sixty (60) day period will be made in the second taxable year. Any payments due after such sixty (60) period shall be payable in accordance with their regularly scheduled payment date. All payments hereunder are subject to any required delay pursuant to Section 23(c), if applicable.

c.Specified Executive” Delay in Payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Executive) until the date that is six months following Executive’s termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code) and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Executive hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of



the Code, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A of the Code, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Board, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. The Company shall consult with Executive in good faith regarding the implementation of the provisions of this Section 23; provided that neither the Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to Executive with respect thereto. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and references herein to Executive’s termination of employment shall refer to Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of the default provisions of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h).

d. Expenses; In-Kind Benefits. To the extent that reimbursements or other in- kind benefits under this Agreement constitute nonqualified deferred compensation, (i) all expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive, (ii) any right to reimbursement or in- kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.
