  Re: Molina Healthcare, Inc. Commitment Letter
    $400,000,000 Senior Bridge Facility

Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have advised Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”, the “Commitment Party” or “we” or “us”) that Molina Healthcare, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower” or “you”), seeks financing to consummate the Transactions (such term and each other capitalized term used but not defined herein having the meanings assigned to them in Annex A hereto and the Term Sheet referred to below). This letter, including the Term Sheet, the Transaction Description attached hereto as Annex A and the Conditions Annex attached hereto as Annex C (the “Conditions Annex”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Commitment Letter”.

1. Commitments. Upon the terms set forth in this Commitment Letter and subject solely to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions expressly set forth in the Conditions Annex, Barclays (in such capacity, the “Initial Lender”) is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide to the Borrower 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bridge Facility (the “Commitment”).

2. Titles and Roles. Barclays, acting alone or through or with affiliates selected by it, will act as bookrunner, lead arranger and syndication agent (in such capacities, collectively, the “Lead Arranger”) in arranging and syndicating the Bridge Facility. Barclays will act as the sole administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Bridge Administrative Agent”) for the Bridge Facility. No additional agents, co-agents, arrangers or bookrunners will be appointed and no other titles will be awarded and no other compensation will be paid (other than compensation expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the fee letter dated the date hereof between the Commitment Party and you (the “Fee Letter”)) unless you and Barclays shall agree in writing; provided that you shall have the right to appoint, within fifteen (15) business days after the date hereof, additional co-managers for the Bridge Facility (any such co-manager, an “Additional Agent”) for up to 50% aggregate economics; it being understood that (i) no additional bookrunners may be appointed, (ii) the commitments of the Initial Lender in respect of the Bridge Facility will be reduced by the amount of the commitments of such Additional Agents and the economics allocated to the Initial Lender in respect of the Bridge Facility will be reduced ratably by the amount of the economics allocated to such Additional Agents, in each case, upon the execution by such Additional Agents of customary joinder documentation (it being understood that each such Additional Agent (or its affiliate) shall assume commitments in respect of the Bridge Facility on a pro rata basis that is equal to the proportion of the economics allocated to such Additional Agent (or its affiliates)) and (iii) after giving effect to any such appointments, the Initial Lender shall be entitled to at least 50% of the economics in respect of the Bridge Facility. It is understood and agreed that Barclays will have the “left”


and “highest” placement in any and all marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Bridge Facility and shall hold the leading role and responsibilities conventionally associated with such placement, including maintaining sole physical books for the Bridge Facility.

3. Conditions to Commitment. The Commitment and undertakings of the Commitment Party hereunder are subject solely to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent set forth in the Conditions Annex.

Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Financing Documentation (as defined in the Conditions Annex) or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (a) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date, shall be (i) such of the representations made by the Seller with respect to the Acquired Assets or its businesses in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you or any of your affiliates have the right (taking into account any applicable cure periods) to terminate your or such affiliate’s obligations under the Acquisition Agreement or otherwise decline to close the Acquisition (in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement) as a result of a breach of any such representations and warranties in the Acquisition Agreement or any such representation or warranty not being accurate (the “Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (ii) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (b) the terms of the Financing Documentation shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in Annex B are satisfied or waived by the Lenders. For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in the Bridge Loan Documentation relating to corporate existence and good standing in such Loan Party’s jurisdiction of organization; power and authority, due authorization, execution and delivery and enforceability, in each case, relating to the Loan Parties’ entering into and performance of the Financing Documentation; enforceability of the Financing Documentation against the Loan Parties; no conflicts with or consents under the Loan Parties’ organizational documents relating to entering into and performance of the Financing Documentation; solvency as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions, with solvency being determined in a manner consistent with Exhibit D to this Commitment Letter) of the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis; Federal Reserve margin regulations; the Investment Company Act; the PATRIOT Act, and not using proceeds in violation of OFAC or FCPA. This paragraph, and the provisions herein, shall be referred to as the “Limited Conditionality Provision”.

4. Syndication.

(a) The Lead Arranger intends and reserves the right, both prior to and after the Closing Date, to secure commitments for the Bridge Facility from a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other entities reasonably acceptable to you (such financial institutions and other entities committing to the Bridge Facility, including the Initial Lender, the “Lenders”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter. Until the earlier of (i) the date that a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) is achieved and (ii) the date that is 60 days following the Closing Date (the “Syndication Date”), you agree to, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause appropriate members of management of the Seller to (to the extent practical and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement), assist the Lead Arranger actively in achieving a syndication of the Bridge Facility that is satisfactory to the Lead Arranger and you. To assist the Lead Arranger in its syndication efforts, you agree that you will, and will cause your representatives and advisors to (to the extent practical and not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement), and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, appropriate members of management of the Seller and its representatives and advisors to, (i) provide promptly to the Commitment Party and the other Lenders upon request all information reasonably requested, and in the case of the Seller, to the extent previously prepared and

(“S&P”), (B) a current public corporate family rating from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moodys”) and (C) a current public rating with respect to the Bridge Facility and the Notes from each of S&P and Moody’s, in each case, prior to the launch of general syndication of the Bridge Facility, and to participate actively in the process of securing such ratings, including having your senior management and, to the extent reasonable and practical, appropriate members of management of the Seller meet with such rating agencies and (vii) your ensuring that prior to the later of the Closing Date and the Syndication Date there will be no competing issues, offerings, placements, arrangements or syndications of debt or equity securities or commercial bank or other credit facilities by or on behalf of you or your subsidiaries being offered, placed or arranged (other than the Bridge Facility, the Notes, the Equity Issuance and the New Credit Agreement (as defined in Annex A) without the written consent of Barclays, unless such issuance, offering, placement, arrangement or syndication could not reasonably be expected to materially impair the syndication of the Bridge Facility (it being understood that indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower and its subsidiaries for capital expenditures and working capital purposes will not materially impair the syndication of the Bridge Facility). For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be required to provide any information to the extent that the provision thereof would violate any attorney-client privilege, law, rule or regulation, or any obligation of confidentiality from a third party binding on you, the Seller (solely with respect to the Acquired Assets) or any of your or its respective affiliates (so long as such confidentiality obligation was not entered into in contemplation of the Transactions); provided that you shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the relevant consents under such obligations of confidentiality to allow for the provision of such information to the extent reasonably requested by the Lead Arranger; provided, further, that you will inform the Lead Arranger, in advance and to the extent legally permitted, that you are withholding any information pursuant to the foregoing. Your obligations under this Commitment Letter to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Seller or members of its management to take (or to refrain from taking) any action shall be subject to any applicable limitation on your rights as set forth in the Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Seller nor any of its affiliates shall be required (A) to prepare, create or provide (unless previously prepared and available prior to the date of the Acquisition Agreement) any financial information or financial statements in respect of Seller, any of its affiliates or the Acquired Assets in connection with the foregoing.

(b) The Lead Arranger and/or one or more of its affiliates will exclusively manage all aspects of the syndication of the Bridge Facility (in consultation with you), including decisions as to the selection and number of potential Lenders to be approached, when they will be approached, whose commitments will be accepted (with your consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), any titles offered to the Lenders and the final allocations of the commitments and any related fees among the Lenders, and the Lead Arranger will exclusively perform all functions and exercise all authority as is customarily performed and exercised in such capacities. Notwithstanding the Lead Arranger’s rights to syndicate the Bridge Facility and receive commitments with respect thereto, unless otherwise agreed to by you, (i) the Initial Lender shall not be relieved or released from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation in the Bridge Facility, including its Commitment, until the initial funding

under the Bridge Facility has occurred on the Closing Date, (ii) no assignment by the Initial Lender shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of the Initial Lender’s Commitment until the initial funding of the Bridge Facility (except to the extent that, only to the extent available on the Closing Date, (x) the Notes are issued and paid for and/or (y) the Equity Issuance occurs, in each case, in lieu of the Bridge Facility or a portion thereof) and (iii) unless you and we agree in writing, the Initial Lender will retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its Commitment in respect of the Bridge Facility, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred. Without limiting your obligations to assist with the syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that the Commitment hereunder is not conditioned upon the commencement or completion of the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Bridge Facility and in no event shall either the successful completion of the syndication of the Bridge Facility or compliance with the Commitment Letter constitute a condition to the availability of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date.

5. Information.

(a) You represent, warrant and covenant that (to the best of your knowledge, insofar as it relates to the Seller and/or the Acquired Assets) (i) all written information and written data (other than the Projections, as defined below, other forward-looking information and information of a general economic or general industry nature) concerning the Borrower, its subsidiaries, the Acquired Assets and any aspect of the Transactions that has been or will be made available to the Commitment Party or the Lenders by you or any of your or their representatives, subsidiaries or affiliates (or on your or their behalf) (the “Information”), when taken as a whole, (x) is, and in the case of Information made available after the date hereof, will be, complete and correct in all material respects and (y) does not, and in the case of Information made available after the date hereof, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) all financial projections concerning the Borrower and its subsidiaries or the Acquired Assets, taking into account the consummation of the Transactions, that have been or will be made available to any of the Commitment Party or the Lenders by you or any of your representatives, subsidiaries or affiliates (or on your or their behalf) (the “Projections”) have been and will be prepared in good faith with a reasonable basis for the assumptions and the conclusions reached therein and on a basis consistent with the Borrower’s and the Seller’s historical financial data (in the case of the Seller, solely as it relates to the Acquired Assets) (it being understood that (w) the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, (x) the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, (y) no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and (z) actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material). You agree that if, at any time prior to the later of the Closing Date and the Syndication Date, you become aware that any of the representations and warranties contained in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement (or use commercially reasonable efforts to supplement, in the case of Information relating to the Seller and/or the Acquired Assets, if previously prepared and available) the Information and the Projections so that such representations are correct in all respects under those circumstances. We will be entitled to use and rely upon, without responsibility to verify independently, the Information and the Projections. You acknowledge that we may share with any of our affiliates (it being understood that such affiliates will be subject to the confidentiality agreements between you and us), and such affiliates may share with the Commitment Party, any information related to you, the Acquired Assets, or any of your subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, in each case, information relating to creditworthiness) and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Costs:

FORM OF SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE

[DATE]

This Solvency Certificate is being executed and delivered pursuant to Section [●] of that certain [●] (the “Credit Agreement”; the terms defined therein being used herein as therein defined).

I, [●], the Chief Financial Officer of Borrower, in such capacity and not in an individual capacity, hereby certify as follows:

 

  1. I am generally familiar with the businesses and assets of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and am duly authorized to execute this Solvency Certificate on behalf of Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement; and

 

  2. as of the date hereof and after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of the indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Transactions, that (i) the sum of the debt and liabilities (subordinated, contingent or otherwise) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, does not exceed the fair value of the assets (at a fair valuation) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (ii) the present fair saleable value of the assets (at a fair valuation) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, on their debts and other liabilities subordinated, contingent or otherwise as they become absolute and matured; (iii) the capital of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not unreasonably small in relation to the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as conducted or contemplated as of the date hereof; and (iv) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, have not incurred and do not intend to incur, or believe that they will incur, debts or other liabilities (including current obligations and contingent liabilities) beyond their ability to pay such debt or other liabilities as they become due (whether at maturity or otherwise). For the purposes hereof, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Solvency Certificate on the date first written above.
