(g)All payments made pursuant to this Section 4H (other than payments to the Accounting Firm) shall be treated by the Evolent Entities, the Seller and the Unitholders as an adjustment to the Total Consideration for all income Tax purposes, unless a final determination (which shall include

the execution of an IRS Form 870-AD or successor form) with respect to such payment causes any such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to the Total Consideration for income Tax purposes.

12CDesignation and Replacement of Representative. The Unitholders and the Seller have agreed that it is desirable to designate the Representative to act on behalf of the Unitholders and the Seller for certain limited purposes, as specified herein. The Unitholders and the Seller have designated WindRose Health Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the initial Representative. The execution of a Letter of Transmittal by a Unitholder and the execution of this Agreement by the Seller shall constitute irrevocable ratification and approval of such designation by such Unitholder or the Seller and authorization of the Representative to serve in such capacity (including to settle any and all disputes with the Evolent Entities and/or Merger Sub under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement), and in each case, shall also constitute a reaffirmation, approval, acceptance and adoption of, and an agreement to comply with and perform, all of the acknowledgments and agreements made by the Representative on behalf of the Unitholders and/or the Seller, as applicable, in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including the Escrow Agreement).

12DAuthority and Rights of Representative; Limitations on Liability.

(a)The Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement and in any other Transaction Document (including the Escrow Agreement). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Unitholder, by delivery of a Letter of Transmittal, and the Seller, by the execution of this Agreement, has designated and appointed the Representative as exclusive agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of each Unitholder and the Seller, as applicable, with full power and authority in each of the Unitholders’ names and for the Seller, to give and receive notices and communications, to agree to, negotiate and enter into, on behalf of each such Unitholder and the Seller, as applicable, amendments, consents and waivers under this Agreement or any Transaction Document entered into by the Company or the Seller, as applicable, pursuant to the terms set forth herein and therein, to make and receive payments on behalf of the

Unitholders and/or the Seller, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms set forth herein, to take such other actions as authorized by this Agreement, including actions in connection with the determination of the Final Consideration, the Earnout Consideration, the defense and/or settlement of any indemnification claims of any Evolent Indemnified Party pursuant to Article 13, to take all actions authorized by the Escrow Agreement, including defending or settling any claims thereunder and releasing and transferring any of the Escrow Funds to Buyer in accordance with the terms set forth therein, and all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Company, the Seller, the Evolent Entities and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on the actions taken by the Representative without independent inquiry into the capacity of the Representative to so act. All actions, notices, communications and determinations by the Representative to carry out such functions shall conclusively be deemed to have been authorized by, and shall be binding upon, the Unitholders and/or the Seller, as applicable. Neither the Representative nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall have any liability to the Company, the Surviving Company, the Seller, the Unitholders with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Representative in such capacity (or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives in connection therewith), except with respect to the Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Representative will at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders; provided, however, that the Representative shall not be required to follow any such direction, and shall be under no obligation to take any action in its capacity as Representative based upon any such direction so long as such action is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Representative (for itself and its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives) shall be entitled to full reimbursement for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Representative in such capacity (or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives in connection therewith), and to full indemnification against any loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as Representative (except for those arising out of the Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims, from the Unitholders and the Seller (including from funds paid to the Representative under this Agreement and/or otherwise received by it in its capacity as Representative, or funds to be distributed to the Unitholders or the Seller under this Agreement at its direction, pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (including under the Escrow Agreement)). In furtherance of the foregoing, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Representative shall have the power and authority to set aside and retain additional funds paid to or received by it, or direct payment of additional funds to be paid to the Unitholders and the Seller as Total Consideration pursuant to this Agreement at Closing or thereafter to satisfy such obligations (including to establish such reserves as the Representative determines in good faith to be appropriate for such costs and expenses that are not then known or determinable). To the extent that the Representative Fund exceeds such expenses, disbursements or advances, the Representative shall distribute such excess amount to the Unitholders and the Seller in accordance with the Allocation Schedule. The relationship created herein is not to be construed as a joint venture or any form of partnership between or among the Representative or any Unitholder or the Seller for any purpose of U.S. federal or state law, including federal or state income Tax purposes. Neither the Representative nor any of its Affiliates owes or shall be deemed to have any fiduciary or other duty to any Unitholder or the Seller.

(b)Each of the Evolent Entities (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates), Merger Sub and the Company acknowledges that the Representative is party to this Agreement solely for

purposes of serving as the “Representative” hereunder and no claim shall be brought by or on behalf of any of Buyer or any other Evolent Entity (including, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries) against the Representative with respect to this Agreement or the agreements or transactions contemplated hereby or any certificate, opinion, instrument or other documents delivered hereunder (with it being understood that any covenant or agreement of or by the “parties” or “each of the parties” shall not be deemed to require performance by, or be an agreement of, the Representative unless performance by the Representative is expressly provided for in such covenant or the Representative expressly so agrees), except to the extent the Representative is a Unitholder, and then only in the Representative’s capacity as a Unitholder.

In addition, for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide the Continuing Company Employees with such other employee benefits that are not less than, in the aggregate, the other benefits received by such Continuing Company Employees at Closing.

(b)Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to credit the Continuing Company Employees for all periods of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates prior to the Closing Date for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not for purposes of benefit accrual) under any welfare or other employee benefit plans adopted or maintained by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on or after the Closing Date (the “New Plans”), provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, subject to the receipt of the consent of any insurer, if necessary, to (i) cause each Continuing Company Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is comparable to the Employee Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Company Employee participated immediately before the Closing Date (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”) and to the extent the Continuing Company Employee satisfied similar requirements under the Old Plans, and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision, disability and/or life benefits to any Company Employee, cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Company Employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent such exclusions or requirements were satisfied or waived under the Old Plans. Further, to the extent commercially reasonable and permitted by the applicable insurer, Buyer

shall cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Company Employee and his or her covered dependents under the Old Plans during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plans ending on the date such Continuing Company Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Company Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(c)As of the Closing Date or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, and to the extent a Continuing Company Employee commences participation in a New Plan that is subject to Section 125 of the Code other than at the beginning of the plan year of such benefit plan, Buyer or its Subsidiary or Affiliate shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assume that portion of any such New Plan subject to Section 125 of the Code that relates to the provision of health flexible spending accounts and dependent care flexible spending accounts, consistent with Situation 2 of IRS Revenue Ruling 2002-32.

(d)The Buyer agrees that it shall utilize, or cause their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to utilize, the standard procedure set forth in IRS Revenue Procedure 2004-53 with respect to wage reporting relating to Covered Company Employees.

(e)This Section 12F shall be binding and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 12F, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 12F. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall be construed or deemed to (i) establish, amend, or modify any Employee Benefit Plan or any “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained or sponsored by Buyer, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates; or (ii) alter or limit the ability of Buyer, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan or any other compensation or benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Closing Date. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 12F shall not create any right in any employee or any other Person to any continued employment with any of Seller, Buyer, or any of the foregoing’s respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever, and shall not interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Buyer, the Surviving Company, their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of any employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.

Buyer, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing), also further covenants and agrees that, as to all communications between McDermott Will & Emery LLP and any of the Company and its Subsidiaries, any member of the Seller Group or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives that relate in any way to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs and shall belong to the Seller Group and shall be controlled by the Representative and will not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company or its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing), and none of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing) will access any such communications or use them in any way. In addition, from and after the Closing, all of the client files and records of or in the possession of McDermott Will & Emery LLP related to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will continue to be property of the Seller Group and controlled by the Representative, and none of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing) will retain any copies of such records or have or seek any access to them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that after the Closing a dispute arises between Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing) and a party other than any member(s) of the Seller Group or any of their Affiliates, then Buyer or any of its Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of such confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that Buyer and any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing) may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Representative (which may be withheld, conditioned or delayed in the sole and unfettered discretion of the Representative). This Section 12F shall not be terminated or modified without the prior written consent of McDermott Will & Emery LLP, it being expressly agreed that McDermott Will & Emery LLP is a third party beneficiary of this Section 12F.

12HExpenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by the Unitholders, the Seller and the Company shall be paid by the Unitholders, the Seller and the Company, and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by the Buyer and Merger Sub shall be paid by Buyer and Merger Sub.

12ICertain Access Provisions.

(a)For a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, Buyer shall preserve and retain, or cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to preserve and retain, all corporate, accounting, Tax, legal, auditing or other books and records of the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the conduct of the business and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date.

(b)After the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to permit the Representative and its representatives to have reasonable access to, and to inspect and copy, all materials referred to in this Section 12H to the extent reasonably necessary for tax reporting purposes; provided that (i) such access does not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Evolent Entities or their Subsidiaries, (ii) such access shall occur in such a manner as Buyer reasonably determines to be appropriate to reasonably protect the confidentiality of such information, including, if reasonably necessary, by requiring the Representative or its representatives to execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement, (iii) all requests for access shall be directed to the officers of Buyer or such other Person as Buyer may designate in writing (including by e-mail) from time to time, and (iv) nothing herein shall require the Evolent Entities to provide access to, or to disclose any information to, the Representative if such access or disclosure (x) would be reasonably expected to be in violation of applicable Legal Requirement or any agreement to which the Evolent Entities or any of their Subsidiaries are bound or (y) would be reasonably expected to jeopardize any attorney-client, work privilege or other privilege.

12JDistributions from the Escrow Agreement. Distributions of the Escrow Funds from the Escrow Account shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Escrow Agreement. Any amount distributable to the Seller and the Unitholders in accordance with this Section 12I shall be released or disbursed to, or as directed by, the Representative, with such amounts, subject to Section 12D(a) hereof, being distributed as a portion of the Additional Consideration to the Seller and the Unitholders as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Units cancelled pursuant to Section 3A(c)), with each such Person entitled to receive its Pro-Rata Share of such Additional Consideration as set forth in the Allocation Schedule.

12KTax Matters.

(a)Tax Returns

(i)The Company or the Blocker, at their sole cost and expense, shall prepare and timely file, or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns in respect of the Company, the Blocker or any Subsidiary that are required to be filed (taking into account any extensions) on or before the Closing Date (a “Seller Prepared Return”), and shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes shown on such Seller Prepared Returns. Such Seller Prepared Returns shall be prepared by treating items on such Seller Prepared Returns in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company, the Blocker or the Subsidiary, as applicable, with respect to such items, except as required by applicable Legal Requirements. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date (or, if earlier, the intended filing date) of any Seller Prepared Return that relates to Income Taxes for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Company or Blocker shall provide a draft of such Tax Return to Buyer for the Buyer’s review and comment. The Company or Blocker shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments made by Buyer with respect to the applicable Seller Prepared Return.

(ii)Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause the Blocker, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries to prepare and timely file all Tax Returns of each such Person due after the Closing Date (the “Buyer Prepared Returns”) and, subject to the right to be indemnified for Tax Losses under Article 13 hereof, timely pay the Taxes due in connection with any Buyer Prepared Return. To the extent that a Buyer Prepared Return relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period, such Tax Return shall be prepared, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, on a basis consistent

with existing procedures and practices and accounting methods, and the conventions provided in Section 12K(b). At least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date (or, if earlier, the intended filing date) of any Buyer Prepared Return that relates to Income Taxes (and such shorter period as is reasonable with respect to any Buyer Prepared Return that does not relate to Income Taxes), for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, Buyer shall provide a draft of such Tax Return to the Representative for the Representative’s review and comment. Buyer shall make any reasonable comments made by the Representative with respect to the applicable Buyer Prepared Return that relates to Income Taxes.

(b)Apportionment. To the extent permissible under applicable Legal Requirements, the parties agree to elect to have each Tax year of the Blocker, the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company to end on the Closing Date (provided, that the Company shall not be required to terminate as a partnership for U.S. federal and applicable state or local income tax purposes) and, if such election is not permitted or required in a jurisdiction with respect to a specific Tax such that the Blocker, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is required to file a Tax Return for a Straddle Period, to utilize the following conventions for determining the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date: (a) in the case of property taxes and other similar Taxes imposed on a periodic basis, the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall equal the Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on (and including) the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period; (b) in the case of all other Taxes (including Income Taxes, sales taxes, employment taxes, and withholding taxes), the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined as if the applicable Person filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes for the portion of the Straddle Period ending as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books methodology;” provided, that with respect to the Income Tax Straddle Periods of the Company, all items of taxable income and deductions and other relevant tax items will be allocated based on an interim closing of the books under Section 1.706-4 of the Treasury Regulations as of the end of the Closing Date and the adoption of the calendar day convention pursuant to Section 1.706-4(c)(1)(i) of the Treasury Regulations. For purposes of clause (b), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion of the Straddle Period as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period. For all purposes of this Agreement, the Parties agree that, to the extent allowed by applicable Legal Requirements by applying a “more likely than not” standard of assurance or otherwise agreed to by the Parties, each of Buyer, Blocker, the Company and its Subsidiaries agrees to report any deductions, expenses, losses or similar items resulting from any Transaction Expenses or any similar payments paid or accrued in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date (“Transaction Deductions”) as begin deductible for Income Tax purposes on or before the Closing Date in the Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date.

(c)Cooperation. Buyer, the Blocker, the Company, and the Representative shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) (i) assist in the preparation and timely filing of any Tax Return of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; (ii) assist in any audit or other legal Proceeding with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (whether or not a Tax Contest) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; (iii) make available any information, records, or other documents relating to any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or of its Subsidiaries (including copies of Tax Returns and related work papers) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; and (iv) provide certificates or forms, and timely execute any Tax

Return, that are necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption from (or reduction in) any Transfer Tax.

(d)Tax Contests.

(i)If any Governmental Entity issues to the Blocker, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (A) a notice of its intent to audit or conduct another legal Proceeding with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of such Person for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period or (B) a notice of deficiency for Taxes for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, in each case including with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Refund (or a subsequent challenge thereto), Buyer shall notify the Representative of its receipt of such communication from the Governmental Entity within ten (10) days of receipt; provided, however, that Buyer’s failure to so notify the Representative shall not limit any of the indemnification obligations of the Unitholders under Section 13A (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such matter). The Company shall control any audit or other legal Proceeding in respect of any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Blocker, the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company (a “Tax Contest”); provided, however, (x) the Representative, at the Unitholders sole cost and expense, shall have the right to control any Tax Contest (including the settlement or resolution thereof) to the extent it relates solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (excluding any Straddle Period); (y) the Representative, at the Unitholders’ sole cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in any Tax Contest it does not control to the extent it relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; and (z) Buyer shall not, and shall not allow the Blocker, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, to settle, resolve, or abandon a Tax Contest (whether or not the Representative controls or participates in such Tax Contest) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period without the prior written consent of the Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned).

(ii)If the Representative elects to control a Tax Contest for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Representative shall notify Buyer of such intent within ten (10) days of receiving notice of the Tax Contest. While it controls a Tax Contest, the Representative shall (A) control such Tax Contest in good faith; (B) keep Buyer reasonably informed regarding the status of such Tax Contest; (C) allow Buyer, the Blocker, the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, to participate in such Tax Contest; and (d) not settle, resolve, or abandon any such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned).

(e)Section 754 Election and Tax Allocation. Buyer and the Unitholders agree that the Company shall make a timely election pursuant to the provisions of Section 754 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (and any corresponding election under state, local income Tax law) (the “Section 754 Election”), in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to adjust the tax basis of the assets of the Company as provided in Section 743 of the Code. Buyer shall prepare and deliver such documents and forms as are required by applicable law for an effective Section 754 Election, including the statement required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.743-1(k)(1) (regarding the effect of the adjustment of the basis of the Company’s assets). The parties shall each file all required Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Section 754 Election. The parties agree that Buyer shall prepare an allocation (“Tax Allocation”) among the Company’s assets in accordance with Section 755 of the Code and the principles set forth on Section 12J(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter and for purposes of (x) determining the applicable adjustment to the tax basis of the Company’s assets and (y) determining the character of each applicable Unitholder’s gain or loss, as the case may be, for U.S. federal income tax purposes in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby. Representative and Buyer shall timely and properly prepare, execute, file and deliver all such documents, forms and other information necessary for Buyer to complete the Tax Allocation. Buyer shall deliver such Tax Allocation to the Representative

within one-hundred twenty (120) days after the final purchase price has been determined. If Representative objects to any item reflected on such Tax Allocation, Representative shall provide notice of such objection to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of receiving such Tax Allocation, and Representative and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to reach agreement on a revised Tax Allocation within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s receipt of such notice of objection. If Representative and Buyer are unable to reach agreement on such a revised Tax Allocation, the matters in dispute shall be submitted to, and promptly resolved by the Accounting Firm in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 4H, mutatis mutandis (provided that the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne one half (1/2) by each of Buyer, on the one hand, and the Unitholders). For avoidance of doubt, any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be consistent with the principles set forth on Section 12J(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter. Buyer and each Unitholder agree to be bound by the Tax Allocation as finally determined and act in accordance therewith in the preparation, filing and audit of any Tax Return (including by attaching the statement required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.743-1(k)(1) to the Company’s U.S. federal income Tax Return for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date, which statement shall set forth the computation of the tax basis adjustment and the allocation thereof in accordance with the Tax Allocation) and to not take any position that is inconsistent with the Tax Allocation unless otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements.

(f)Push Out Election. If, in any taxable year involving a taxable period (or portion thereof) prior to the Closing Date of the Company in which the Company does not elect out under Section 6221 of the Code (a “Reviewed Year”), the IRS makes an adjustment to an item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company (or any partner’s distributive share thereof) that would result in an “imputed underpayment” within the meaning of Section 6225 of the Code for which the Company would have liability (such imputed underpayment, together with any associated interest and penalties, an “Imputed Underpayment”), the Company shall, if permitted under Section 6226 of the Code, timely and properly make the election to “push out” any adjustments to the Unitholders, such that the Company shall not be liable for any Imputed Underpayment resulting from such adjustments.

(g)Transfer Taxes. All federal, state, local, non-U.S. transfer, excise, sales, use, value added, registration, stamp, recording, property and similar Taxes or fees applicable to, imposed upon, or arising out of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement and all related interest and penalties (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid by Buyer.

(h)Post-Closing Actions. None of Buyer or any of its Affiliates shall (or shall cause or permit any other Person to) (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 12K(a), file, amend, re-file or otherwise modify any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date; (ii) make any Tax election (including, but not limited to, an election pursuant to Sections 336 or 338 of the Code) that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date; (iii) file any ruling or request with any taxing authority that relates to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date; or (iv) enter into any voluntary disclosure with any taxing authority regarding any Tax or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date (including any voluntary disclosure with a Taxing Authority with respect to filing Tax Returns or paying Taxes for Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date in a jurisdiction that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries did not previously file a Tax Return or pay Taxes), in each case,

without the prior written consent of the Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); provided, that nothing in this Section 12K(h) shall prohibit the Company from registering for Tax purposes with any Governmental Entity with respect to any tax period beginning after the Closing Date.

(i)Refunds. Any refunds of Taxes with respect to any Taxes attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date that are received by Buyer or Blocker after the Closing Date (any such refund, a “Pre-Closing Tax Refund”), shall be for the account of the Sellers, and Buyer shall pay over to the Seller any such Pre-Closing Tax Refund within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof, net of any reasonable expenses or out-of-pocket costs, including Tax costs, incurred by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company, its Subsidiaries and Blocker after the Closing) as a result of obtaining such Pre-Closing Tax Refund. All such refunds shall be claimed in cash rather than as a credit against future Tax liabilities.

12LR&W Policy. Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Surviving Company to not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, amend, modify or change any term or condition of the R&W Policy in a manner that is materially adverse to Seller or any Unitholder and shall comply in all material respects with the terms thereof.

12MParent Guarantee. Parent hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, guarantees to Seller and Unitholders the full and timely performance of each of Buyer’s and Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement, including for a claim for specific performance pursuant to Section 14Q. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Representative may, in its sole discretion, bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against Parent to enforce this Section 12M regardless of whether any action is brought against Buyer or Merger Sub, or whether Buyer or Merger Sub is joined in any such action.

(a)Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations provided herein, from and after the Closing, each of the Unitholders and the Seller shall, severally in proportion to his, her or its pro rata share of the Total Consideration, and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Evolent Entities, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company and their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, stockholders, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) for, from and against any Losses, arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with:

(v)any fees and expenses incurred in connection herewith by any Unitholder or the Seller, any Indebtedness, Company Expenses and any expenses of the Representative;

(vi)any Fraud of the Company in the making of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 7;

(vii)any Constituent Claims and any inaccuracy in the Allocation Schedule; and

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the right of the Buyer Indemnified Parties to be indemnified, held harmless and reimbursed pursuant to Section 13A is subject to the following limitations and qualifications:

(c)The Unitholder Indemnified Parties shall have no right to recover any amounts under Section 13B(a) unless on or before the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, the Representative notifies Buyer in writing of a claim or breach under Section 13B(a) in the manner set forth in this Article 13; provided, however, that any written notice of any claim or breach with respect to Fundamental Representations, or a claim for indemnification or reimbursement to the extent not arising under Section 13B(a), may be made by the Representative until the six (6) year anniversary of the Closing Date; and, provided further, that claims under Section 13B(b) for any covenants or obligations of the Evolent Entities or Merger Sub contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document that by their nature are required to be performed by or prior to the Closing shall survive until the earlier of the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date or the full performance thereof.

13FDefense of Third Party Claims.

(a)If a third party notifies any Buyer Indemnified Party or Unitholder Indemnified Party (an “Indemnitee”) of any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other party under this Article 13 prior to the applicable time limitation for claims set forth in Section 13E, then the Indemnitee shall notify the Representative (in the case of Buyer Indemnified Parties seeking indemnification) or Buyer (in the case of a Unitholder Indemnified Party seeking indemnification) (each, for purposes of this Article 13, an “Indemnity Administrator”) of the Third Party Claim in writing promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days, after receiving written notice of such Third Party Claim, describing the claim in detail, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof; provided that the failure to so notify the Indemnity Administrator shall not limit the indemnification obligations under this Agreement, unless such Indemnity Administrator is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to so notify.

(b)Any Indemnity Administrator shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim at such Indemnity Administrator’s expense, and at its option shall be entitled to assume, and thereafter conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice that is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. If the Indemnity Administrator assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose at its own expense. If the Indemnity Administrator assumes the defense of any Proceeding, then the Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnity Administrator in such defense and make available to the Indemnity Administrator, at the Indemnity Administrator’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnitee’s

possession or under the Indemnitee’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnity Administrator. The Indemnity Administrator shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or compromise or otherwise acknowledge or admit the validity of any claim or liability unless such entry of judgment, settlement, compromise acknowledgement or admission (i) results in no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person, (ii) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee a release from all liability in respect of such claim and (iii) the sole relief provided is limited to monetary damages.

(c)If the Indemnity Administrator does not assume control of the defense of such claim within thirty (30) days following the Indemnity Administrator’s receipt of notice of such action or claim in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Indemnitee shall have the right to defend such claim in such manner as it may deem reasonably appropriate; provided that the Indemnitee shall not be entitled to consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnity Administrator (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person and the sole relief provided is monetary damages.

(d)Each of the Indemnitee and Indemnity Administrator will (i) keep the other party reasonably informed in all material respects of the status of such Third Party Claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel and (ii) reasonably cooperate and assist each other and their respective counsel in good faith in the review, investigation and defense of any such claim as they may reasonably require of each other, including, but not limited to, making available their respective personnel, and providing such testimony and access to its books and records in connection therewith, in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim.

(e)To the extent that there is an inconsistency between this Section 13F and Section 12J(d) as it relates to a Tax Contest or any other matters relating to Taxes, the provisions of Section 12J(d) shall govern.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) an Indemnitee reasonably determines that it is likely that a Third Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliates in any material respect other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) the Indemnity Administrator is also a Person against whom the Third Party Claim is made and the Indemnitee reasonably determines, based on the advice of outside legal counsel, that joint representation would present a conflict of interest, (iii) the Indemnity Administrator fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnitee of its financial capacity to defend such Third Party Claim and provide indemnification (based on the indemnification limitations in this Agreement) with respect to such Third Party Claim, (iv) the Third Party Claim is by a Material Customer, or (v) the aggregate amount of potential Losses relating to such Third Party Claim are reasonably likely to, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, exceed the then-unused portion of the Cap (in the event that the limitation of the Cap applies to such Third Party Claim and the claim is made pursuant to a breach of Section 13A(a)(i)), the Indemnitee may, by notice to the Indemnity Administrator, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third Party Claim, but the Indemnity Administrator will not be bound by any determination of any Third Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any

compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(g)If the Indemnity Administrator undertakes the defense of a Third Party Claim, then the Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense but shall not be entitled to any reimbursement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnitee, (i) there are legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnitee or (ii) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnitee and the indemnifying party that cannot be waived, the Indemnity Administrator shall be liable for (as Losses hereunder) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one separate counsel to the Indemnitee.

13GDirect Losses. If, after the Closing, an Indemnitee incurs a Loss for which it is entitled to indemnification, other than as a result of a Third Party Claim, such Indemnitee shall provide written notice of such direct Losses to the applicable Indemnity Administrator within the applicable time limits set forth in Section 13E. The notice shall describe the claim or matter in reasonable detail (to the extent known), including the amount of such Losses (estimated if appropriate) that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee, and the method of computation thereof, and contain a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises. If the Indemnity Administrator does not agree to the amount of Losses claimed by the Indemnitee and the parties are not able to resolve such matter in good faith, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to submit such indemnification claim to any court or authority of competent jurisdiction described in Section 14L for determination of the amount of Losses, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement.

13HDetermination of Loss Amount.

(a)The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 13A or Section 13B shall be calculated net of (a) any insurance proceeds actually received covering any of the Loss (excluding the R&W Policy, except to the extent the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to recovery of Loss in excess of the Escrow Funds in relation to a claim in respect of a Fundamental Representation or otherwise pursuant to Sections 13A(a)(ii)-(viii) or Section 13A(b) and also actually receive insurance proceeds from the R&W Policy for such Loss; provided, that for purposes of the R&W Policy, such Loss shall not be reduced), less any costs incurred in recovering such proceeds, and (b) any amounts recovered from other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person which are contained outside of this Agreement), less any costs incurred in recovering such amounts. In the event that insurance or other recovery is received by any Indemnitee with respect to any Loss for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the amount of the insurance or other recovery, less any reasonable and documented costs incurred in recovering such amounts, shall be made promptly to the Indemnity Administrator that made or directed such indemnification payments to such Indemnitee.

(b)For purposes of this Article 13 and for determining (a) whether there exists a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement, and (b) the amount of Losses arising out of, relating to or resulting from a breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of the Company in this Agreement, all “Company Material Adverse Effect”, “in all material respects”, “Buyer Material Adverse Effect” and other materiality qualifications (collectively, “Materiality Qualifiers”) shall be ignored and each such representation and warranty shall be read and interpreted without regard to any Materiality Qualifier.

(c)The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Losses to the extent accounted for in the determination of the Closing Statement (or the components thereof) or the Closing Balance Sheet, as finally determined hereunder, or the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, Company Closing Indebtedness and Company Expenses.

(d)The right to indemnification, reimbursement, or other remedy under this Agreement based on representations, warranties, covenants and obligations contained herein are part of the basis of the bargain contemplated by this Agreement, and such rights shall not be affected, waived, modified, limited or diminished by any (and the parties shall be deemed to have relied on the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement notwithstanding) investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) about, the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation, and regardless of whether such knowledge was obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

13IExclusive Remedy; Escrow Account.

(a)Except for the right of a party hereto to pursue specific performance pursuant to Section 14R (and without limitation of any such right) or for a claim for Losses described in Section 13C(d) or Section 13D(d), the parties acknowledge and agree that, after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this Article 13 and the R&W Policy shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties hereto, the Surviving Company and their respective Affiliates against each other with respect to any claim related to or arising from this Agreement, the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the performance by the parties of their respective obligations hereunder, the transactions contemplated hereby and the facts and circumstances relating and pertaining hereto; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit or restrict any Person who is a party to any agreement entered into at or in connection with the Closing (other than the Escrow Agreement, the remedies under which will be governed by the terms hereof and thereof) to obtain Losses or any other legal or equitable relief from any other Person who is a party to any such agreement in connection with the breach of such agreement by such other Person pursuant to the terms thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the limitations and restrictions (including time for asserting claims) on indemnification set forth in this Article 13 shall affect the rights of Buyer Indemnified Parties to make claims under the R&W Policy, which rights shall be governed solely thereby.

(b)On the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing, to the extent any funds remain in the Escrow Account and there is no notice of a claim from any Buyer Indemnified Party which was timely delivered under Sections 13F or 13G which claim has not yet been resolved, then title to any funds remaining in the Escrow Account shall automatically transfer to the Representative (for the benefit of the Unitholders and the Seller) and Buyer and the Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing promptly to release all remaining funds from the Escrow Account to, or at the direction of, the Representative for credit to the Unitholders and the Seller in accordance with the Allocation Schedule.

13JRight of Setoff. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to Section 13C(e), upon either (i) the mutual agreement of the Representative and Buyer, or (ii) the issuance of a final and non-appealable judgment or order resolving an indemnification claim made by a Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 13, a Buyer Indemnified Party may set off any amount to which it is entitled under this Article 13 against any Earnout Consideration otherwise payable or issuable by the Evolent Entities. Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of set-off

will constitute an election of remedies or limit any Buyer Indemnified Party in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.

13KR&W Policy. The Evolent Entities hereby represent, covenant and agree that the R&W Policy does and will, except for a claim for Losses described in Section 13C(d), expressly exclude any right of subrogation absent fraud (as defined in the R&W Policy) against the Unitholders or the Seller under this Agreement. Following the date hereof, Buyer shall not amend, terminate or otherwise modify the R&W Policy in a manner that would adversely modify or impair the coverage thereunder. Nothing in this Section 13K shall preclude the Buyer from entering into a reasonable settlement with the R&W Insurer of a disputed claim for coverage under the R&W Policy, which settlement shall not modify or expand any obligations of Seller or the Unitholders hereunder. In no event shall the Buyer Indemnified Parties be required to contest any denial of coverage issued by the R&W Insurer, initiate or otherwise pursue any Action against the R&W Insurer or take any action that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect Buyer’s coverage under the R&W Policy.

13LSeller Guarantee. The Seller hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, guarantees to Buyer the full and timely payment by Vital Splitter when due of any obligation of Vital Splitter, in its capacity as a Unitholder, pursuant to this Agreement to the extent the same is required to be paid by Vital Splitter pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations hereof.

14AAmendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended or any provision of this Agreement may be waived; provided that (a) any amendment shall be binding only if such amendment is set forth in a writing executed by the Representative, the Company, Buyer and, prior to the Effective Time, Merger Sub and (b) any waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Representative, the Seller, the Company, Buyer, or, prior to the Closing, Merger Sub only if set forth in a writing executed by such Person; provided further that the Company may waive a provision of this Agreement on behalf of the Seller. No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement shall be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any person under or by reason of this Agreement.

All notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) if personally delivered, on the date delivered, (b) if delivered by express courier service of national standing for next day delivery (with charges prepaid), on the Business Day immediately following the date such delivery is provided to such courier service, (c) if deposited in the United States mail, first-class postage prepaid, on the date delivered, or (d) if delivered by e-mail, provided the relevant computer record indicates a full and successful transmission or no failure message is generated (i) on the date of such transmission, if such transmission is completed at or prior to 5:00 p.m., local time of the recipient party, on the date of such transmission, and (ii) on the next Business Day following the date of transmission, if such transmission is completed after 5:00 p.m., local time of the recipient party, on the date of such transmission.

14NThird-Party Beneficiaries and Obligations. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto (including the Unitholders following the Closing and after delivery of Letters of Transmittal) or their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights, remedies or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, other than sections which are specifically for the benefit of the Unitholders, the Unitholder Parties, the Representative (including any successor thereto), the Seller Group, the Buyer Indemnified Parties, the Unitholder Indemnified Parties, the officers and directors of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and Persons to which Company Expenses are owed, as applicable (including Section 3B, Section 4C, Section 12B, Section 12C, Section 12D, Section 12E, Section 12F, Article 13 and this Section 14N), each of which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby or to be paid thereunder and may be enforced by such Persons.

Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to

waiver by the parties hereto in accordance with this Agreement without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto.

Furthermore, in no event shall this Agreement be deemed to create a partnership or joint venture between the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates, on the other hand, and in no event shall any fiduciary or similar duty be deemed owed by the Company or any of its Affiliates to Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

14QSpecific Performance. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the other party(ies) would be damaged irreparably and would have no adequate remedy of law in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is breached, and that any breach of this Agreement could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages. Accordingly, each party agrees that, in addition to any other right or remedy to which the non-breaching party may be entitled, at law or in equity, the non-breaching party will be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking and without having to prove the inadequacy of any other remedy it may have at law or equity. Each party agrees not to assert (i) that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Legal Requirements or inequitable for any reason or (ii) that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach. The parties hereby further agree that nothing set forth in this Section 14Q shall require any party to institute any Proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any Proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 14Q prior to or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article X (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Proceeding pursuant to this Section 14Q or anything set forth in this Section 14Q restrict or limit the right of the party seeking specific performance to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article X or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.
