Fiscal 2022 Business Performance Highlights

• GAAP revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $158.8 million, a 28% increase compared to GAAP revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021, of $123.8 million, and a 7% increase compared to pro forma revenues (assumes full calendar year revenue for businesses acquired during 2021) for the year ended December 31, 2021 of $148.9 million. We deconsolidated Glocal Healthcare Systems Private Limited (“Glocal”), which was included in our Virtual Care Infrastructure segment, effective July 1, 2022; therefore, the financial results of Glocal as of December 31, 2021 and for the period from March 26, 2021 to December 31, 2021, and the period from January 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022 are included in our consolidated financial statements, and the financial results of Glocal as of December 31, 2022 and for the three and six months then ended are not included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

• Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2022 expanded to 44%, compared to GAAP gross margin of 32% and pro forma gross margin of 33% in the comparable year ago period, primarily due to cost of revenues recorded in the Company’s Integrated Care Management segment with no corresponding revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021.

• Year-to-date revenues and gross margin by segment for the year ended December 31, 2022 were as follows:

○ Virtual Care Infrastructure generated $65.0 million of revenues (41% of total revenues), an increase of $28.4 million, with a gross margin of 46%.

○ Services generated $75.8 million of revenues (48% of total revenues), an increase of $20.5 million, with a gross margin of 35%.

○ Integrated Care Management generated $18.0 million of revenues (11% of total revenues), a decrease of $13.9 million, with a gross margin of 76%.

1

• Operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $161.4 million, a 58% improvement compared to operating loss for the comparable year ago period of $380.0 million. This improvement primarily resulted from goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges taken in the year ended December 31, 2022 of $114.1 million due to the recent change in our market valuation and financial performance from our Integrated Care Management and Services segments compared to goodwill impairment charges taken in the year ended December 31, 2021 of $297.9 million from all three segments, partially offset by the deconsolidation of Glocal Healthcare Systems Private Limited in the third quarter of 2022 and higher legal expenses associated with the matter.

• Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $3.3 million, compared to year-to-date GAAP and pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2021 of $(6.5) million and $(4.0) million, respectively.

PROXY STATEMENT FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD DECEMBER 27, 2023

The board of directors (the “Board of Directors” or “Board”) of UpHealth, Inc. is soliciting your proxy for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on December 27, 2023, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Notice”). This Proxy Statement and related materials are first being made available to stockholders on or about December 12, 2023. References in this Proxy Statement to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and “UpHealth” are to UpHealth, Inc., and references to the “Annual Meeting” are to the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. When we refer to UpHealth’s fiscal year, we mean the annual period ending on December 31. This Proxy Statement covers our 2022 fiscal year, which ended on December 31, 2022. When we refer to “in person” attendance and voting at the Annual Meeting, we mean virtual attendance and voting over the Internet during the Annual Meeting (such meaning having been authorized by the Board in accordance with Section 9.5 of our Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”)).

SOLICITATION AND VOTING

Record Date

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on December 4, 2023 will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting and any adjournment thereof. As of the record date, 18,510,320 shares of UpHealth’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), were outstanding and entitled to vote.

Quorum

At least one-third of the 18,510,320 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the record date, or 6,170,107 shares of Common Stock, must be represented at the meeting, either in person or by proxy, to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the meeting. The 170,000 issued shares of Common Stock held by UpHealth as treasury shares (which are not considered as outstanding), as a matter of Delaware law, do not count for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the meeting and are not entitled to be voted. Your shares will be counted towards the quorum if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker or bank) or if you vote in person at the meeting. Withheld votes, abstentions and “broker non-votes” (shares held by a broker or nominee that does not have the authority, either express or discretionary, to vote on a particular matter) will each be counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.

3

Votes Required to Approve Each Proposal

Each share of our Common Stock outstanding on the record date is entitled to one vote on each of the three director nominees and one vote on each other proposal. Shares not present at the meeting will have no effect on any proposal to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, assuming that a quorum is present. The table below summarizes the proposals that will be voted on, the vote required to approve each item and how votes are to be counted:

Proposal	Votes Required	Impact of “Withhold” or “Abstain” Votes	Broker Discretionary Voting Allowed(1)
Proposal No. 1: Election of directors	The plurality of the votes cast. This means that the three director nominees who receive the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected as Class II directors. You may vote “For” or “Withhold” with respect to each director nominee.	None(2)	No(3)
Proposal No. 2: Ratification of BPM LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2023	The affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present and entitled to vote. You may vote “For,” “Against” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal.	None(4)	Yes(5)

(1)
If your shares are held in “street name” by a bank or broker, such bank or broker is required to vote your shares according to your instructions, if provided. If you do not provide specific voting instructions, under NYSE rules governing banks and brokers who submit a proxy card with respect to shares held in “street name,” such banks and brokers have the discretionary authority to vote on routine matters, but not on non-routine matters. A broker non-vote occurs when a bank or broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares and the bank or broker cannot vote the shares at its discretion because the matter is not considered a routine matter under NYSE rules. In tabulating the voting results for any particular proposal, shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered entitled to vote on that proposal.

(2)
A vote that is withheld will be excluded entirely from the vote with respect to the director nominee from which it is withheld and will have the same effect as an abstention. Withheld votes and abstentions will not count as votes “FOR” or “AGAINST” a director, and thus will not affect the outcome of this proposal (assuming that a quorum is present), because directors are elected by plurality voting.

(3)
As this proposal is not considered a routine matter, banks and brokers lack authority to exercise their discretion to vote on this proposal if you do not provide specific voting instructions. If you are a beneficial owner and hold your shares in “street name” in an account at a bank or brokerage firm, it is critical that you cast your vote if you want it to count in this proposal. Accordingly, we encourage you to vote promptly, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting.

(4)
A vote marked as an abstention is not considered a vote cast, and thus will not affect the outcome of this proposal, assuming that a quorum is present.

(5)
As this proposal is considered a routine matter, banks and brokers are permitted to exercise their discretion to vote uninstructed shares on this proposal.

Voting Instructions

If you complete and submit your proxy card or voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will follow your voting instructions. If no choice is indicated on the proxy card, the shares will be voted as the Board recommends on each proposal. Many banks and brokerage firms have a process for their beneficial owners to provide instructions via the Internet. The voting form that you receive from your bank or broker will contain instructions for voting.

Depending on how you hold your shares, you may vote in one of the following ways:

• Stockholders of Record: You may vote by proxy or over the Internet. Please follow the instructions at https://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/UPH2023 to vote over the Internet, or on the paper copy of the proxy card that you received by mail, then sign and return your proxy card in the prepaid envelope. You may also vote in person at the Annual Meeting.

• Beneficial Stockholders: Your bank, broker or other holder of record will provide you with a voting instruction card for you to use to instruct them on how to vote your shares. Check the instructions provided by your bank, broker or other holder of record to see which options are available to you. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your bank, broker or other agent.

4

Votes submitted over the Internet must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 26, 2023. Submitting your proxy over the Internet will not affect your right to vote in person during the Annual Meeting should you decide to attend the Annual Meeting in person.

Revocability of Proxy

If you are a stockholder of record, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close by returning a later-dated proxy card, by voting again over the Internet as more fully detailed in your Notice or proxy card, or by delivering written instructions to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of UpHealth before the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not in and of itself cause your previously voted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request or vote again at the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in an account at a bank, brokerage firm or other agent, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, brokerage firm or other agent, or, if you have obtained a valid proxy from your bank, brokerage firm or other agent giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Solicitation of Proxies

We are soliciting your proxy for the Annual Meeting and will bear the cost of such solicitation process. In addition to soliciting stockholders by mail, we will request banks, brokers and other intermediaries holding shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by others to obtain proxies from the beneficial owners and will reimburse them for their reasonable, out-of-pocket costs. We may use the services of our officers, directors and employees to solicit proxies, personally or by telephone, without additional compensation.

Voting Results

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will report final results on a Form 8-K to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

PROPOSAL NO. 1

 

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

We have a classified Board consisting of three Class I directors, three Class II directors and three Class III directors. At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors are elected for a term of three years to succeed those directors whose terms expire at the annual meeting dates. Following the Annual Meeting, we will have no vacancies on our Board.

The term of the existing Class II directors will expire on the date of this Annual Meeting. Accordingly, three persons are to be elected to serve as Class II directors of the Board at this Annual Meeting. The Board’s nominees for election by the stockholders to those three positions are (1) current independent Class II director, Dr. Raluca Dinu, (2) current Class II director, Mariya Pylypiv, and (3) new independent Class II director nominee, James S. Greene. Each nominee has consented to being named in the proxy materials relating to the Annual Meeting and to serve if elected. Following a request by current Class II director Mr. Nathan Locke to not be renominated for election to the Board, the Board has determined not to renominate Mr. Locke. Mr. Locke’s request to not be renominated is not a result of any disagreements with the Company.

If elected, each nominee will serve as a director until our annual meeting of stockholders in 2026 and until their respective successors are elected and qualified. If any of the nominees declines to serve or becomes unavailable for any reason, or if a vacancy occurs before the election (although we know of no reason to anticipate that this will occur), the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominees as we may designate. The proxies cannot vote for more than three persons.

The three nominees for Class II director receiving the highest number of votes will be elected as Class II directors. A “Withhold” vote will have no effect on the vote.

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the nominees named above.

The names of our directors, including the nominees for Class II directors to be elected at this Annual Meeting, and certain information about them as of December 12, 2023 is set forth below.

The business combination between GIG4 and BigBear.ai Holdings, LLC closed on December 9, 2021, and GIG4 was renamed BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. BigBear.ai moved its listing from Nasdaq to the NYSE, where it is listed under the ticker symbol “BBAI.” Dr. Katz served as the Executive Chairman of GIG4 from its inception until the closing of the business combination with BigBear.ai Holdings, LLC on December 9, 2021, and since then, has continued to serve as a member of the board of directors

Dr. Katz had also been the Chief Executive Officer and President of GIG5 for a short period of time before Dr. Dinu substituted for him as Chief Executive Officer and President in February 2021.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Independence

The Board has determined that, other than Mr. Beck and Drs. Kathuria and Pylypiv, each of the current members and nominees of the Board is an “independent director” for purposes of the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as the term relates to membership on the Board and the various committees of the Board, and which is defined generally as a person other than an executive officer or employee of UpHealth or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of our Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Board Responsibilities and Structure

The Board oversees, counsels, and directs management in the long-term interests of UpHealth and our stockholders. The Board’s responsibilities include:

• selecting, evaluating the performance of, and determining the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers;

• planning for succession with respect to the position of Chief Executive Officer and monitoring management’s succession planning for other executive officers;

• reviewing and approving our major financial objectives and strategic and operating plans, and other significant actions;

• overseeing the conduct of our business and the assessment of our business and other enterprise risks to evaluate whether the business is being properly managed; and

• overseeing the processes for maintaining our integrity with regard to our financial statements and other public disclosures, and compliance with law and ethics.

The Board and its committees met throughout the year on a set schedule, held special meetings, and acted by written consent from time to time as appropriate.

Board Leadership Structure. The Board has leadership in the form of a Chairman of the Board. The Bylaws establish a fixed policy regarding the separation of the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. In accordance with this policy, the Board maintains a separate Chairman of the Board who is not the Chief Executive Officer of UpHealth. The duties of the Chairman of the Board include:

• presiding over all meetings of the Board;

• preparing the agenda for Board meetings in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer and other members of the Board;

• working with the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee to manage the Board’s process for annual director self-assessment and evaluation of the Board and of the Chief Executive Officer;

• general supervision and control of the acquisition and financing activities of the Company; and

• presiding over all meetings of stockholders.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight at UpHealth

One of the Board’s functions is oversight of risk management at UpHealth. “Risk” is inherent in business, and the Board seeks to understand and advise on risk in conjunction with the activities of the Board and the Board’s committees.

12

Defining Risk. The Board and management consider “risk” for these purposes to be the possibility that an undesired event could occur that might adversely affect the achievement of our objectives. Risks vary in many ways, including the ability of UpHealth to anticipate and understand the risk, the types of adverse impacts that could occur if the undesired event occurs, the likelihood that an undesired event and a particular adverse impact would occur, and the ability of UpHealth to control the risk and the potential adverse impacts. Examples of the types of risks faced by UpHealth include:

• macro-economic risks, such as inflation, reductions in economic growth, or recession;

• political risks, such as restrictions on access to markets, confiscatory taxation, or expropriation of assets;

• “event” risks, such as natural disasters; and

• business-specific risks related to strategic position, operational execution, financial structure, legal and regulatory compliance, and corporate governance.

Not all risks can be dealt with in the same way. Some risks may be easily perceived and controllable, and other risks are unknown; some risks can be avoided or mitigated by particular behavior, and some risks are unavoidable as a practical matter. For some risks, the potential adverse impact would be minor, and, as a matter of business judgment, it may not be appropriate to allocate significant resources to avoid the adverse impact; in other cases, the adverse impact could be significant, and it is prudent to expend resources to seek to avoid or mitigate the potential adverse impact. In some cases, a higher degree of risk may be acceptable because of a greater perceived potential for reward. UpHealth engages in numerous activities seeking to align its voluntary risk-taking with company strategy, and understands that its projects and processes may enhance UpHealth’s business interests by encouraging innovation and appropriate levels of risk-taking.

Management is responsible for identifying risk and risk controls related to significant business activities; mapping the risks to company strategy; and developing programs and recommendations to determine the sufficiency of risk identification, the balance of potential risk to potential reward, the appropriate manner in which to control risk, and the support of the programs discussed below and their risk to company strategy. The Board implements its risk oversight responsibilities by having management provide periodic briefing and informational sessions on the significant voluntary and involuntary risks that UpHealth faces and how UpHealth is seeking to control risk if and when appropriate. In some cases, as with risks of new technology and risks related to product acceptance, risk oversight is addressed as part of the full Board’s engagement with the Chief Executive Officer and management. In other cases, a Board committee is responsible for oversight of specific risk topics. For example, the Audit Committee oversees issues related to internal control over financial reporting and significant pending and threatened litigation, and the Compensation Committee oversees risks related to compensation programs, as discussed in greater detail below. The Board had also previously established a Compliance Committee to address healthcare regulatory and other compliance risk issues, but in 2023, the Board dissolved the Compliance Committee as a standalone committee of the Board and instead established a compliance subcommittee of the Audit Committee to fulfill the function previously handled by the Compliance Committee. Presentations and other information for the Board and Board committees generally identify and discuss relevant risk and risk control, and the Board members assess and oversee the risks as a part of their review of the related business, financial, or other activity of UpHealth. The full Board also receives specific reports on enterprise risk management, in which the identification and control of risk are the primary topics of the discussion.

Executive Sessions

UpHealth regularly has executive sessions of the Board where members of management and members of the Board who are employees of the Company are not in attendance. The Chairman of the Board, Dr. Avi S. Katz, has presided at these executive sessions. Any party wishing to make their concerns known to non-management or independent directors of the Board may contact Drs. Katz and Raluca Dinu and Ms. Agnès Rey-Giraud at the following email address: independentdirectors@uphealthinc.com.

Meetings of the Board and Committees

The Board held 22 meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The Board currently has three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. As noted above, in 2022, the Board had a fourth standing committee – a Compliance Committee. During our last fiscal year, each of our incumbent directors attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and all of the committees of the Board on which such director served during that period.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

 

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT

REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of our Board has selected BPM LLP (“BPM”) to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit the consolidated financial statements of UpHealth for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. If not ratified, the Audit Committee will reconsider the selection, although the Audit Committee will not be required to select a different independent registered public accounting firm for UpHealth. Even if the appointment is ratified, our Board may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of UpHealth and its stockholders.

For this Annual Meeting, a representative of BPM is expected to be present, with the opportunity to make a statement if the representative desires to do so, and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Change of Auditors in November 2022

As previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022, on November 9, 2022, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of BPM as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2022, effective immediately. BPM previously served as the independent registered public accounting firm of GigCapital2, Inc., the Company’s legal predecessor (“GigCapital2”), from its inception in March 2019 until June 14, 2021, when BPM was replaced by Plante & Moran, PLLC (“Plante & Moran”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Plante & Moran served as the independent registered public accounting firm of UpHealth Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company’s accounting predecessor (“UpHealth Holdings”), prior to the closing of the Business Combinations (see the section entitled “Change of Auditors in June 2021” below). Plante & Moran, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2021, resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company on November 9, 2022, effective that same day.

The report of Plante & Moran on UpHealth’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the related statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and the subsequent interim period through the date of Plante & Moran’s resignation on November 9, 2022, there were no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) between the Company and Plante & Moran on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Plante & Moran, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and the subsequent interim period through the date of Plante & Moran’s resignation on November 9, 2022, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act), other than for the year ended December 31, 2021, and the quarterly periods ended March 31 and June 30, 2022, respectively, we reported material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting related to: (i) lack of appropriately designed entity-level controls impacting the control environment and monitoring activities to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements; (ii) lack of appropriately designed information technology general controls in the areas of user access and segregation of duties, including controls over the recording of journal entries and safeguarding of assets, related to certain information technology systems that support our financial reporting process; and (iii) lack of appropriately designed and implemented controls over the following: (1) recording of revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers at certain subsidiaries due to errors in our revenue recognition pertaining to the determination of whether a contract exists, the identification of performance obligations, and the timing and amount of revenue to be recognized; (2) completeness of accruals in the purchase to disbursement process and the payroll process at certain subsidiaries; (3) segregation of duties and monitoring controls over the treasury cycle at certain subsidiaries; (4) financial statement close process at certain subsidiaries to ensure the consistent execution, accuracy, and timely review of

19

account reconciliations; and (5) financial statement preparation process that involves the use of a spreadsheet and manually consolidating all subsidiaries. The Audit Committee has discussed the subject matter of each of these “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) with Plante & Moran, and the Company has authorized Plante & Moran to respond fully to the inquiries of the Company’s newly engaged independent registered public accounting firm (as discussed above) concerning the subject matter of each such “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act).

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the subsequent interim period through the date of the Company’s engagement of BPM as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on November 9, 2022, the Company (or its accounting predecessor) did not consult with BPM regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the consolidated financial statements of the Company (or its accounting predecessor), and no written report or oral advice was provided that BPM concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or a “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act).

Change of Auditors in June 2021

As previously reported on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 15, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board approved the appointment of Plante & Moran as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Accordingly, BPM, the independent registered public accounting firm since 2019 of GigCapital2, was informed on June 14, 2021 that it would be replaced by Plante & Moran as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

The report of BPM on GigCapital2’s balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 (as restated) and the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 (as restated), did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such audit report contained explanatory paragraphs in which BPM expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and indicated that the 2020 financial statements had been restated to correct misstatements.

During the year ended December 31, 2020 and the subsequent interim period through the date of BPM’s dismissal on June 14, 2021, there were no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) between the Company and BPM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BPM, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.

During the year ended December 31, 2020 and the subsequent interim period through the date of BPM’s dismissal on June 14, 2021, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act), other than for the year ended December 31, 2020, GigCapital2 reported a material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting related to mistakes in its accounting for warrants issued in connection with a private placement. The Audit Committee of GigCapital2 discussed the subject matter of this “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) with BPM, and the Company authorized BPM to respond fully to the inquiries of Plante & Moran concerning its subject matter.

During the year ended December 31, 2020 and the subsequent interim period through the date of the Company’s appointment of Plante & Moran as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on June 14, 2021, the Company did not consult with Plante & Moran regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the consolidated financial statements of GigCapital2, and no written report or oral advice was provided that Plante & Moran concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or a “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act).

Policy on Board Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of the Independent Auditors

The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent registered public accounting firm.

These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. The Audit Committee has delegated to the Chairman of the Audit Committee the authority to approve permitted services provided that the Chairman reports any decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee currently consists of three directors, each of whom, in the judgment of the Board, is an “independent director” as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE. The Audit Committee acts pursuant to a written charter that has been adopted by the Board. A copy of the charter is available on UpHealth’s website at https://investors.uphealthinc.com/governance/governance-documents/.

The Audit Committee oversees UpHealth’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. The Audit Committee is responsible for retaining UpHealth’s independent registered public accounting firm, evaluating its independence, qualifications and performance, and approving in advance the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm for all audit and non-audit services. Management has the primary responsibility for the consolidated financial statements and the financial reporting process, including internal controls, and procedures designed to insure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. UpHealth’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, BPM, is responsible for expressing an opinion as to the conformity of our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management UpHealth’s audited consolidated financial statements. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed under the rules adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”). In addition, the Audit Committee has met with the independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the overall scope of the independent registered public accounting firm’s audit, the results of its examinations, its evaluations of UpHealth’s internal controls and the overall quality of UpHealth’s financial reporting.

The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to UpHealth’s Board that UpHealth’s audited consolidated financial statements be included in UpHealth’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following discussion and analysis of our executive compensation philosophy, objectives and design, our compensation-setting process, the components of our executive compensation program, and the decisions made for compensation in respect of 2022 for our executive officers should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth below. The discussion in this section contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current considerations and expectations relating to our executive compensation programs and philosophy. As our business and our needs evolve, the actual amount and form of compensation and the compensation programs that we adopt may differ materially from current or planned programs as summarized in this section.

Overview

This section provides an overview of our executive compensation program, including a narrative description of the material factors necessary to understand the information disclosed in the summary compensation table below.

In evaluating our overall executive compensation program and decisions for the 2022 fiscal year, including payouts and awards under our compensation programs, the Compensation Committee considered a number of factors, including the achievement of both strategic enterprise and financial objectives and our position as a high growth, transformational Company. The Compensation Committee makes any determinations as it relates to the payout of the previous year’s compensation programs as well as the adoption of any performance measures for the current fiscal year. This allows the Compensation Committee to have a good understanding of the prior fiscal year financial performance in order to evaluate the performance of our named executive officers (each, an “NEO”) against previously adopted performance measures as well as develop plans and performance metrics based on the annual operating plan for the current fiscal year.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our NEOs were:

Named Executive Officer	Age	Title
Samuel J. Meckey(1)	53	Chief Executive Officer
Dr. Ramesh Balakrishnan(2)	69	President and Chief Strategy Officer
Martin S. A. Beck(3)	57	Chief Financial Officer

(1)
Mr. Meckey served as our Chief Executive Officer and director from July 11, 2022 until October 6, 2023.

(2)
Dr. Balakrishnan served as our President and Chief Strategy Officer from July 2022 until December 30, 2022, when he resigned as an officer of the Company. Following his resignation, Dr. Balakrishnan is available to advise the Company’s Chief Executive Officer as appropriate, although the Company and Dr. Balakrishnan have no agreement with terms for such advisory role. Dr. Balakrishnan previously served as our Chief Executive Officer from the closing of the Business Combinations until July 11, 2022, when he transitioned to the role of President and Chief Strategy Officer. Prior to then, Dr. Balakrishnan served as Co-Chief Executive Officer of UpHealth Holdings from November 2020 until the closing of the Business Combinations, and was also the Chief Executive Officer of Thrasys from its formation by him in March 2002 until the closing of the Business Combinations.

(3)
Mr. Beck served as our Chief Financial Officer from June 9, 2021 until October 6, 2023. On October 5, 2023, the Board appointed Mr. Beck to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective October 6, 2023. On October 9, 2023, the Board appointed Mr. Beck to serve as a Class I director.

During the 2022 fiscal year, we made changes to who are the NEOs from those who were NEOs for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. On July 11, 2022, Mr. Meckey joined the Company as its Chief Executive Officer. That same day, Dr. Balakrishnan transitioned to the role of President and Chief Strategy Officer of the Company. Dr. Balakrishnan served as our President and Chief Strategy Officer until December 30, 2022, when he resigned as an officer of the Company.

In addition, Dr. Al Gatmaitan served as our Chief Operating Officer from the closing of the Business Combinations until January 10, 2022, when he resigned as an officer of the Company. As a result, he was an NEO for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, but not for the 2022 fiscal year. Prior to the closing of the Business Combinations, Dr. Gatmaitan beginning in November 2019 served as the Chief Executive Officer and a board member of UpHealth Services, Inc., which became a subsidiary of UpHealth Holdings following a reorganization in October 2020, and from October 2020 until June 2021 he served as the Co-Chief Executive Officer and a board member of UpHealth Holdings until the closing of the Business Combinations.

During the 2023 fiscal year, further changes were made to who are the NEOs from those who were NEOs for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. On October 6, 2023, the Company notified Samuel J. Meckey that pursuant

23

to a decision made by the Board on October 5, 2023, his service as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company was terminated, effective immediately, and that he would cease to be an employee of the Company effective on October 11, 2023. On October 5, 2023, the Board appointed Martin S. A. Beck, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, to serve as the Chief Executive Officer effective upon the termination of Mr. Meckey as Chief Executive Officer, which role Mr. Beck commenced on October 6, 2023. On October 9, 2023, Mr. Meckey informed the Board that, in accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, he would be resigning from his position as a Class I director of the Company, effective immediately. That same day, the Board appointed Mr. Beck, the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer, to serve as a Class I director.

In addition, on October 9, 2023, the Board determined that Mr. Beck would no longer serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and appointed Jay Jennings, the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer (which role did not make Mr. Jennings the principal accounting officer of the Company as Mr. Beck has previously served as both the principal financial officer and the principal accounting officer), to replace Mr. Beck as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective immediately, and assume the position of both the principal financial officer and the principal accounting officer of the Company.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

UpHealth has developed an executive compensation program that is consistent with the compensation policies and philosophies of the Compensation Committee and the Board, which are designed to align compensation with the Company’s business objectives and the creation of stockholder value, while enabling UpHealth to attract, motivate and retain individuals who contribute to its long-term success. Decisions on the executive compensation program are made by the Compensation Committee.

The objectives of the Company’s executive compensation program are to encourage retention and recruitment of high-performing executives, to motivate employees and align executive interests across the organization and with the Company’s stockholders, to reward sustainable financial performance, accountability and innovation, to create consistence with UpHealth’s strategy and culture (mission, vision and values) and to balance innovation and performance with risk. In setting executive compensation in 2022, the Compensation Committee took into account the Company’s strategy, culture and stage in defining plan feature tradeoffs. The Compensation Committee also looked to manage exceptions to its approach based upon the individual profiles of various members of the Company’s management.

Decisions regarding executive compensation reflect a belief that the executive compensation program must be competitive in order to attract and retain highly competent executive officers as well as include a significant element of “pay for performance.” Total compensation will be comprised of base salary, short-term incentive and long-term incentive. A significant portion of compensation for the members of management of the Company is tied to annual performance objectives. All elements of the compensation are defined in absolute dollar values. Further, the Compensation Committee seeks to tie our executive compensation levels to the compensation practices of our peer companies. The targeted percentile for the total compensation is 50% of the peer group compensation and will be implemented over a 3-year period, to take into account the maturity and evolution of the Company.

Base Salary

Base salaries for our NEOs are established based on the individual’s scope of responsibilities, experience and market factors. The base salary is an annual total cash salary paid over 12 months in equal amounts. The Compensation Committee typically reviews base salaries on an annual basis, referencing peer group and survey data to understand the marketplace for individuals in similar positions. No formulaic base salary increases are provided to our NEOs; however, annual merit increases are provided when the Compensation Committee determines that such increases are warranted in light of national salary increase levels, salary levels within companies in our peer group, individual performance and/or overall Company performance. We pay base salaries to attract, recruit and retain qualified employees. The base salaries for 2022 for our NEOs take into account the initial base amount set forth in the executive’s respective employment agreement or employment offer letter, as applicable, and the scope of the executive’s responsibilities, individual contributions, prior experience and sustained performance.

24

The base salaries of our NEOs for 2022 were as follows:

Executive & Title	2022 Base Salary
Samuel J. Meckey(1)	$520,000
Martin S. A. Beck(2)	$360,000(3)
Dr. Ramesh Balakrishnan(4)	$408,000

(1)
Mr. Meckey served as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company from July 11, 2022 until his termination on October 6, 2023.

(2)
Mr. Beck served as our Chief Financial Officer from June 9, 2021 until October 6, 2023. On October 5, 2023, the Board appointed Mr. Beck to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective October 6, 2023. On October 9, 2023, the Board appointed Mr. Beck to serve as a Class I director.

(3)
Mr. Beck’s base salary was increased during the 2022 fiscal year from $350,000 to $360,000.

(4)
Dr. Balakrishnan resigned from his role as President and Chief Strategy Officer of the Company effective December 30, 2022.

Annual Bonuses

UpHealth uses annual cash incentive bonuses for the NEOs to tie a portion of their compensation to financial and operational objectives achievable within the applicable fiscal year. The annual cash incentive bonus is expressed as a percentage of an individual’s base salary. The Compensation Committee set the performance targets using five financial metrics for the 2022 fiscal year: total revenue; gross margin; adjusted EBITDA; free cash flow; and price per share. Determination of the achievement of the targets is based upon the full year financial results following the completion of the audit of the Company’s financial statements. Following the end of the year, the Compensation Committee determined the extent to which the performance targets were achieved and the amount of the award that is payable to the NEOs. For the NEOs, performance is measured at an aggregated level. Mr. Beck earned a partial bonus for the fiscal year 2022.

For the 2022 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee has added a sixth measurement criteria – the Company’s organizational health index – for purposes of setting the aggregate corporate performance goals for the annual bonus pool. Furthermore, members of management hired prior to October 1 of the fiscal year will have their annual bonuses prorated for their first year from the date of hire.

Equity-Based Awards

UpHealth uses equity-based awards to reward long-term performance of the NEOs. UpHealth believes that providing a meaningful portion of the total compensation package in the form of equity-based awards aligns the incentives of its NEOs with the interests of its stockholders and serves to motivate and retain the individual NEOs. Any awards would be made in accordance with the executive compensation program discussed above. UpHealth is currently using restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to encourage long term performance. Each award of RSUs will be separated into those that vest over time and those which will vest based on performance using, for the 2022 fiscal year, the same performance metrics as are used for determining achievement of the annual cash incentive bonus. For the NEOs, the performance metrics for vesting of RSUs subject to performance were partially achieved in fiscal year 2022.

Other Compensation

UpHealth maintains various employee benefit plans, including medical, dental, life insurance and 401(k) plans, in which the NEOs will participate. It also provides certain perquisites to its named executive officers, subject to the Compensation Committee’s ongoing review.

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Code denies a federal income tax deduction for certain compensation in excess of $1.0 million per year paid to the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, the three other most highly paid executive officers of a publicly traded corporation, and anyone previously subject to Section 162(m) as a covered employee for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 2016. It is the policy of UpHealth to consider the tax impact of its compensation arrangements as one factor, among others, in evaluating and determining the structure, implementation, and amount of awards paid to its executive officers. However, to retain highly skilled executives and remain competitive with other employers, the Compensation Committee may authorize compensation that would not be deductible under Section 162(m) or otherwise if it determines that such compensation is in the best interests of the

25

Company and its stockholders, and maintaining tax deductibility will not be the sole consideration taken into account in determining what compensation arrangements are in our and our stockholders’ best interests. The right to grant compensation that is not deductible is expressly reserved, and UpHealth may do so.

Summary Compensation Table

Mr. Beck is eligible to earn the Retention Bonus subject to satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (i) Mr. Beck’s continued employment with the Company through the earlier of: (A) March 31, 2024, or (B) the applicable date of filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2023 fiscal year (such applicable date, the “Retention Date”), (ii) the Company’s timely submission of all required filings with the SEC prior to the Retention Date, (iii) Mr. Beck’s cooperation and assistance prior to the Retention Date with searching for and identifying a candidate to succeed to Mr. Beck’ position and duties with the Company (“New CFO”) and (iv) if a New CFO is identified by the Company prior to the Retention Date, Mr. Beck cooperates with and reasonably assists the Company in the transition of Mr. Beck’s duties to the New CFO. If Mr. Beck provides written notice to the Company that he will resign from employment on March 31, 2024, the provision of such notification to the Company, by itself, shall not be deemed to constitute a termination of Mr. Beck’s continued employment for purposes of eligibility to earn the Retention Bonus. The period commencing on the effective date of the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement and ending on the Retention Date is the “Retention Period.” Mr. Beck is eligible to earn a pro-rata portion of the Retention Bonus if Mr. Beck resigns for Good Reason (as defined below) during the Retention Period, with such pro-rata portion calculated by reference to the number of days that Mr. Beck was employed during the Retention Period divided by the total number of days in the Retention Period. Additionally, the Retention Bonus will be earned in full upon a Change in Control (as such term is defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement), subject to Mr. Beck’s continued employment with the Company through the closing of the Change in Control. The Retention Bonus will also be earned in full if the Company terminates Mr. Beck’s employment without Cause (as such term is defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) before the Retention Date. If for any reason the Retention Bonus is not earned, in whole or in part, Mr. Beck must repay the entire gross value amount of the unearned portion of the Retention Bonus

30

(the “Repayment Amount”) in cash to the Company no later than 30 days after Mr. Beck is notified in writing that Mr. Beck is required to repay the Company the Repayment Amount. The Company may elect to offset such owed Repayment Amount against Mr. Beck’s final paycheck, any vacation cash out, and any expense reimbursements not previously paid, if applicable and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Additionally, if Mr. Beck fails to timely repay the Repayment Amount to the Company, Mr. Beck is required to reimburse the Company all costs incurred by the Company in connection with collection of the Repayment Amount, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement provides that “Good Reason” for Mr. Beck to terminate his employment shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without his consent: (i) the relocation of Mr. Beck’s primary work location to a point more than 50 miles from Delray Beach, Florida; (ii) a material reduction by the Company of Mr. Beck’s base salary or annual target bonus opportunity, without the written consent of Mr. Beck, as initially set forth in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement or as the same may be increased from time to time pursuant to the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, except for across-the-board salary reductions implemented prior to a Change in Control which are implemented based on the Company’s financial performance and similarly affecting all or substantially all senior management employees of the Company; and (iii) a material breach by the Company of the terms of the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement. Provided, however, that such termination by Mr. Beck shall only be deemed for Good Reason pursuant to the foregoing definition if (i) the Company is given written notice from Mr. Beck within 60 days following the first occurrence of the condition that he considers to constitute Good Reason describing the condition and the Company fails to satisfactorily remedy such condition within 30 days following such written notice, and (ii) Mr. Beck terminates employment within 30 days following the end of the period within which the Company was entitled to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason but failed to do so.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Beck will be eligible to earn performance bonuses in the aggregate target amount of $1,000,000 based on the Company’s performance during the 2023, 2024 and 2025 fiscal years (together, such fiscal years are the “Performance Period”). Mr. Beck is eligible to earn a performance bonus with respect to each fiscal year in the Performance Period (each a “Revenue Bonus”). His target Revenue Bonus amount applicable to each fiscal year within the Performance Period is $333,333.33. The amount of Revenue Bonus eligible to be earned by Mr. Beck for each fiscal year during the Performance Period will be determined based on the applicable level of revenue received by the Company during such fiscal year. The applicable percentage of his Revenue Bonus that is eligible to be earned for each fiscal year within the Performance Period will be determined by reference to the Company’s level of revenue received for the applicable fiscal year as measured against the target revenue performance levels for such fiscal year as determined by the Board, with 100% of the target Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year being paid in the event that the targeted level of revenue is achieved by the Company, 85% of the target Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year being paid in the event that 85% of the targeted level of revenue is achieved by the Company, 125% of the target Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year being paid in the event that 125% of the targeted level of revenue is achieved by the Company, and linear interpolation between these designated performance levels.

The threshold and stretch targeted levels of revenue for each fiscal year within the Performance Period are independent for each fiscal year (i.e., if 85% of the targeted levels of revenue for a fiscal year is attained for such fiscal year and 110% of the targeted levels of revenue for a fiscal year is attained for such fiscal year, with respect to those fiscal years the Revenue Bonus amounts eligible to be earned are $283,333.33 and $366,666.66, respectively). If the Company does not meet the threshold goal of 85% of the targeted levels of revenue for the applicable fiscal year, Mr. Beck is not eligible to earn or receive any Revenue Bonus with respect to such fiscal year. If the Company exceeds 125% of the targeted levels of revenue for the applicable fiscal year, the Revenue Bonus that Mr. Beck is eligible to earn and receive for such fiscal year is 125% of the targeted levels of revenue amount for such fiscal year (i.e., $416,666.66). Whether and to what extent the applicable targeted levels of revenue for a fiscal year was attained for such fiscal year will be determined by the Board in a manner consistent with the amounts reported on the Company’s annual audited financial statements, and its determination will be final and binding on Mr. Beck.

In all cases, Mr. Beck’s eligibility to earn a Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year is subject to Mr. Beck’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable date of payment of such Revenue Bonus. If a Revenue Bonus is eligible to be earned by Mr. Beck for a fiscal year based on performance for such fiscal year, the applicable Revenue Bonus for such fiscal year will be paid to Mr. Beck in the calendar year immediately following the fiscal year with respect to which the targeted levels of revenue were attained. For the Revenue Bonus eligible to be earned based on performance for the 2023 fiscal year, Mr. Beck must also remain employed through the applicable date of

31

filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2023 fiscal year in order for him to be eligible to earn a Revenue Bonus in respect of the 2023 fiscal year; provided, however, that if the Company terminates Mr. Beck’s employment without Cause (as such term is defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) prior to the date of filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2023 fiscal year, Mr. Beck shall be deemed to have earned the applicable amount of Revenue Bonus solely for the 2023 fiscal year, based on Company performance for the 2023 fiscal year, and Mr. Beck shall not be eligible to earn any Revenue Bonus in respect of the 2024 or 2025 fiscal years. If earned, such Revenue Bonus for 2023 will be paid in the first payroll period following the date of filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2023 fiscal year. Any Revenue Bonus earned with respect to Company performance for the 2024 and 2025 fiscal years will be paid no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the fiscal year with respect to which the applicable level of revenue was attained.

In the event there is a Change in Control of the Company which occurs prior to the end of the Performance Period, and subject to Mr. Beck’s continued employment with the Company through the date of such Change in Control, the applicable level of revenue for the remainder of the Performance Period (commencing with the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs) will be deemed to have been attained at the target level upon such Change in Control so that Mr. Beck will instead be entitled to receive the target amount of Revenue Bonus for the remainder of the Performance Period, which will be paid in cash to Mr. Beck no later than fifteen days following such Change in Control. For example, if a Change in Control transaction occurs on June 1, 2024 and Mr. Beck remains employed by the Company on such date, then Mr. Beck will receive a total Revenue Bonus equal to $666,666.66 for the 2024 and 2025 fiscal years ($333,333.33 for 2024 and $333,333.33 for 2025) and regardless of the Company’s actual level of revenue for the 2024 and 2025 fiscal years.

Except for payment of the Revenue Bonus that is triggered in connection with a Change in Control transaction in which case the form of payment shall always be in cash, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle its obligation to pay the Revenue Bonus in cash or in vested shares of the Company’s common stock, to be issued pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, with a then current fair market value equal to the amount of the cash payment, with such Company share value determined in the same manner that the Company calculates such fair market value for tax administration and withholding purposes.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that the terms of the Indemnity Agreement previously entered into by the Company and Mr. Beck, an executed copy of which is attached as an exhibit to the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “Indemnity Agreement”), shall continue to be applicable. To the extent the Indemnity Agreement is not applicable, the following provisions shall apply. The Company covenants and agrees to indemnify Mr. Beck, his heirs and representatives, and hold them harmless, to the fullest extent allowed by governing law, from and in connection with any loss, cost, damage, award, judgment, claim and/or expense, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing, attorneys’ fees and related expenses, in the event Mr. Beck is made or threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, administrative, investigative or otherwise or the provision of any cooperation or assistance hereunder including but not limited to the Litigation Cooperation Requirement (a “Proceeding”), by reason of his acceptance and/or performance of the employment contemplated herein, or that otherwise arises out of or relates to Mr. Beck’s service as an officer or employee of the Company or any affiliate of the Company. Mr. Beck shall have the right to engage, at the Company’s expense, independent counsel in connection with such a Proceeding. The Company agrees to pay all expenses incurred in connection with any such Proceeding (including but not limited to the fees and expenses associated with the engagement of Mr. Beck’s independent counsel) directly to the billing party, when and as incurred, and in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, so as to avoid Mr. Beck having to pay or advance such costs. The Company also agrees to pay all other costs associated with such a Proceeding, including any bond costs, liability award or judgment, together with any costs or accrued interest, directly so as to avoid Mr. Beck having to pay or advance such sums. Mr. Beck shall retain full control of his representation and the decisions affecting his interests in connection with such a Proceeding. In addition, during Mr. Beck’s employment and thereafter, the Company shall provide Mr. Beck with coverage under a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that provides him with coverage on the same basis as is provided for the officers and directors of the Company.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Beck may receive certain severance benefits if he terminates his employment with the Company pursuant to a Qualifying Resignation (as defined below) or a Scheduled Resignation (as defined below). A Qualified Resignation shall occur if (i) Mr. Beck’s resignation is

32

due to a material adverse change in Mr. Beck’s title or a material reduction in Mr. Beck’s duties, authority, or responsibilities relative to the duties, authority, or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction (each a “Resignation Condition”), and (ii) Mr. Beck’s resignation of employment occurs after the Retention Date; provided, however, that such resignation by Mr. Beck shall only be deemed a Qualifying Resignation pursuant to the foregoing definition if (x) the Company is given written notice from Mr. Beck within 60 days following the later of (A) the Retention Date, or (B) the date of occurrence of the condition that he considers to constitute a Resignation Condition describing the Resignation Condition and the Company fails to satisfactorily remedy such Resignation Condition within 30 days following such written notice, and (y) Mr. Beck terminates his employment with the Company within 30 days following the end of the period within which the Company was entitled to remedy the Resignation Condition but failed to do so. A Scheduled Resignation means Mr. Beck’s resignation of employment for any or no reason which meets each of the following criteria; (i) Mr. Beck provides written notice to the Company no later than December 31, 2023 that Mr. Beck will resign from employment on March 31, 2024 (the “Resignation Date”), (ii) Mr. Beck remains employed with the Company through the Resignation Date, and (iii) Mr. Beck resigns from employment with the Company on the Resignation Date. In no event is Mr. Beck’s termination of employment a Scheduled Resignation if Mr. Beck: (i) terminates employment for any reason prior to the Resignation Date, (ii) fails to provide the Company with written notice by December 31, 2023 of Mr. Beck’s intent to resign on the Resignation Date, or (iii) does not resign on the Resignation Date.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Beck may receive certain severance benefits if he terminates his employment for any or no reason with written notice to the Company at any time within 30 days following a Change in Control of the Company. For all purposes of the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, Mr. Beck’s termination of employment for any or no reason within 30 days following a Change in Control of the Company does not mean or include any termination of Mr. Beck by the Company for Cause which occurs during such 30-day period.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that upon any termination of Mr. Beck’s employment the Company shall pay Mr. Beck’s base salary, accrued but unpaid business expenses and accrued and unused vacation benefits earned through the date of termination at the rate in effect at the time of termination (the “Accrued Amounts”), less standard deductions and withholdings.

If the Company terminates Mr. Beck’s employment without Cause or Mr. Beck terminates his employment for Good Reason or due to a Qualifying Resignation or Scheduled Resignation, and a Change in Control Trigger (as defined below) has not occurred, the Company shall pay the Accrued Amounts subject to standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid as a lump sum no later than 30 days after the date of termination. In addition, subject to the limitations stated in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement and upon Mr. Beck’s furnishing to the Company an executed Release (as defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) and Mr. Beck continuing to comply with his obligations pursuant to the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement attached as an exhibit to the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement and entered into by him concurrently with the entry into the CFO Employment Agreement (the “Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement”), and subject to Mr. Beck continuing to satisfy the Litigation Cooperation Requirement, the Company shall provide Mr. Beck with the following severance benefits (a) the equivalent of one times Mr. Beck’s annual base salary in effect at the time of termination, less standard deductions and withholdings, will be paid in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; (b) any Accrued and Unpaid Bonus (as defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) for the prior year, if applicable, will be paid in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; (c) a pro-rated portion of his target bonus amount for the year of termination, as applicable, if any such bonus has been determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee to have been achieved, based on the actually achieved level of performance, in the ordinary course when determinations are made for all officers and employees of the Company based upon the metrics associated with such bonus (the “Bonus Determination Date”) (pro-rated based upon the portion of the calendar year that Mr. Beck was employed by the Company), less standard deductions and withholdings, which pro-rata bonus, if earned, will be paid to Mr. Beck during the calendar year immediately following the year of termination in a single lump sum and within 10 days after the Bonus Determination Date, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; and (d) payment of the premiums for

33

continued coverage under the Company’s medical, dental, life and disability insurance until the earlier of either (i) the end of 12 months following the termination date, or, (ii) the date on which Mr. Beck begins full-time employment with another company or business entity which offers comparable health insurance coverage to Mr. Beck.

If the Company (or its successor) terminates Mr. Beck’s employment without Cause or Mr. Beck terminates his employment for Good Reason or due to a Qualifying Resignation within the period commencing 3 months immediately prior to a Change in Control of the Company and ending 12 months immediately following a Change in Control of the Company (a “Change in Control Trigger”), or within 30 days following a Change in Control of the Company Mr. Beck terminates his employment for any or no reason, Mr. Beck shall receive the Accrued Amounts subject to standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid as a lump sum no later than 30 days after the date of termination. In addition, subject to the limitations stated in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement and upon Mr. Beck’s furnishing to the Company (or its successor) an executed Release, and subject to Mr. Beck continuing to comply with his obligations pursuant to the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, and subject to Mr. Beck continuing to satisfy the Litigation Cooperation Requirement, the Company shall provide Mr. Beck with the following severance benefits (a) the equivalent of one times Mr. Beck’s annual base salary in effect at the time of termination, less standard deductions and withholdings, will be paid in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; (b) an amount equal to one times the target bonus for the year of termination, or if none, one times the last target bonus in effect for Mr. Beck, less standard deductions and withholdings, will be paid to Mr. Beck in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; (c) any Accrued and Unpaid Bonus for the prior year, if applicable, will be paid in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; (d) a pro-rated portion of his target bonus amount for the year of termination, as applicable, if any such bonus has been determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee to have been achieved, based on the actually achieved level of performance, in the ordinary course on the Bonus Determination Date (pro-rated based upon the portion of the calendar year that Mr. Beck was employed by the Company), less standard deductions and withholdings, which pro-rata bonus, if earned, will be paid to Mr. Beck during the calendar year immediately following the year of termination in a single lump sum and within 10 days after the Bonus Determination Date, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; and (e) payment of the premiums for continued coverage under the Company’s medical, dental, life and disability insurance for a period of 12 months following the date of termination.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that, in the event that Mr. Beck’s employment is terminated due to Mr. Beck’s death or Complete Disability (as defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement), the Company will pay Mr. Beck or his estate the Accrued Amounts and any Accrued and Unpaid Bonus for the prior year, if applicable, subject to standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid in a lump sum no later than 30 days after the date of termination.

In addition, in the event that Mr. Beck’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason or due to a Qualifying Resignation or Scheduled Resignation and a Change in Control Trigger has not occurred, or in the event of Mr. Beck’s death or Complete Disability, the vesting of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards (as defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) shall be fully accelerated such that on the effective date of such termination 100% of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards granted to Mr. Beck prior to such termination shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable, if applicable, by Mr. Beck. Furthermore, in the event that Mr. Beck’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason or due to a Qualifying Resignation and a Change in Control Trigger has occurred, or within 30 days following a Change in Control of the Company Mr. Beck terminates his employment for any or no reason, then (i) the vesting of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards shall be fully accelerated such that on the effective date of such termination (or if later, the date of the Change in Control) 100% of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards granted to Mr. Beck prior to such termination shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable, if applicable, by Mr. Beck, and (ii) the vesting of any Performance Equity Awards (as defined in the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) that were granted to Mr. Beck prior to the effective date of the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement will be accelerated at the target performance level. Any such equity vesting acceleration provided under the CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement shall be conditioned upon and subject to Mr. Beck’s satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (i) the delivery by Mr. Beck (or in the event of Mr. Beck’s death, the executor of Mr. Beck’s estate, or

34

in the event of Mr. Beck’s Complete Disability wherein Mr. Beck lacks the capacity to act on his own behalf, Mr. Beck’s legal representative) of an executed Release; (ii) Mr. Beck continuing to comply with his obligations pursuant to the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement; and (iii) Mr. Beck continuing to satisfy the Litigation Cooperation Requirement.

The CFO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement does not make any other substantive changes to the terms and conditions of the CFO Employment Agreement, and to the extent such terms and conditions have been previously stated in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 25, 2021, such descriptions are incorporated by reference herein.

Employment Agreement with Samuel J. Meckey

On May 10, 2022, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Samuel J. Meckey as its Chief Executive Officer, effective as of July 11, 2022 when Mr. Meckey commenced his role as Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO Employment Agreement”). The CEO Employment Agreement provided that Mr. Meckey will receive a base salary at the initial annualized rate of $520,000 per year, subject to standard deductions and withholdings, or such other rate as may be determined from time to time as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee (hereinafter referred to as the “Meckey CEO Base Salary”). In addition, for the period beginning July 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2022, Mr. Meckey will be guaranteed to receive a prorated bonus payment in an amount not less than 100% of the Meckey CEO Base Salary actually earned by Mr. Meckey during 2022 (the “Meckey Initial Bonus”), prorated for the period, provided Mr. Meckey remains employed on the date the Meckey Initial Bonus is paid, subject to the termination provisions of his employment agreement. The CEO Employment Agreement further provided that Mr. Meckey will be eligible for an annual discretionary bonus beginning as of January 1, 2023 (hereinafter referred to as the “Meckey CEO Bonus”) with a target amount of 100% of the Meckey CEO Base Salary, subject to standard deductions and withholdings, based on the Board’s determination, in good faith, as to whether applicable Performance Milestones have been achieved.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 13, 2023, on January 9, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to CEO Employment Agreement, effective as of January 10, 2023 (the “CEO Amendment”). On May 11, 2023, the Board approved an CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement between Mr. Meckey and the Company that amends and restates in its entirety, and replaces, the CEO Employment Agreement and the CEO Amendment (the “CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement”). The Company and Mr. Meckey entered into the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement on May 12, 2023.

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement amends the CEO Employment Agreement so that the right of Mr. Meckey to receive an annual equity grant with a target grant date value of not less than $2,000,000 does not commence until the 2024 fiscal year. The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Meckey is awarded a bonus in the amount of $1,000,000 (the “IGI Bonus”) contingent upon the closing of the Company’s sale of IGI (as defined below) to Belmar (as defined below) and subject to Mr. Meckey’s continued employment with the Company through the date of the IGI Closing (as defined below), which has occurred on May 11, 2023. The IGI Bonus will be paid to Mr. Meckey in cash, less standard deductions and withholdings, no later than fifteen days following the IGI Closing.

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Meckey will be eligible to earn performance bonuses in the aggregate target amount of $1,000,000 based on the Company’s performance during the 2023, 2024 and 2025 fiscal years (together, such fiscal years are the “Performance Period”). Mr. Meckey is eligible to earn a performance bonus with respect to each fiscal year in the Performance Period (each a “Revenue Bonus”). His target Revenue Bonus amount applicable to each fiscal year within the Performance Period is $333,333.33. The amount of Revenue Bonus eligible to be earned by Mr. Meckey for each fiscal year during the Performance Period will be determined based on the applicable level of revenue received by the Company during such fiscal year. The applicable percentage of his Revenue Bonus that is eligible to be earned for each fiscal year within the Performance Period will be determined by reference to the Company’s level of revenue received for the applicable fiscal year as measured against the target revenue performance levels for such fiscal year as determined by the Board; with 100% of the target Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year being paid in the event that the targeted level of revenue is achieved by the Company, 85% of the of the target Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year being paid in the event that 85% of the targeted level of revenue is achieved by the Company, 120% of the of the target Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year being paid in the event that 120% of the targeted level of revenue is achieved by the Company, and linear interpolation between these designated performance levels.

35

The threshold and stretch targeted levels of revenue for each fiscal year within the Performance Period are independent for each fiscal year (i.e., if 85% of the targeted levels of revenue for a fiscal year is attained for such fiscal year and 110% of the targeted levels of revenue for a fiscal year is attained for such fiscal year, with respect to those fiscal years the Revenue Bonus amounts eligible to be earned are $283,333.33 and $366,666.66, respectively). If the Company does not meet the threshold goal of 85% of the targeted levels of revenue for the applicable fiscal year, Mr. Meckey is not eligible to earn or receive any Revenue Bonus with respect to such fiscal year. If the Company exceeds 125% of the targeted levels of revenue for the applicable fiscal year, the Revenue Bonus that Mr. Meckey is eligible to earn and receive for such fiscal year is 125% of the targeted levels of revenue amount for such fiscal year (i.e., $416,666.66). Whether and to what extent the applicable targeted levels of revenue for a fiscal year was attained for such fiscal year will be determined by the Board in a manner consistent with the amounts reported on the Company’s annual audited financial statements, and its determination will be final and binding on Mr. Meckey.

In all cases, Mr. Meckey’s eligibility to earn a Revenue Bonus for a fiscal year is subject to Mr. Meckey’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable date of payment of such Revenue Bonus. If a Revenue Bonus is eligible to be earned by Mr. Meckey for a fiscal year based on performance for such fiscal year, the applicable Revenue Bonus for such fiscal year will be paid to Mr. Meckey in the calendar year immediately following the fiscal year with respect to which the targeted levels of revenue were attained and no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the fiscal year with respect to which the targeted level of revenue was attained.

In the event there is a Change in Control of the Company (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) which occurs prior to the end of the Performance Period, and subject to Mr. Meckey’s continued employment with the Company through the date of such Change in Control, the targeted level of revenue for the remainder of the Performance Period (commencing with the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs) will be deemed to have been attained at the target level upon such Change in Control so that Mr. Meckey will instead be entitled to receive the target amount of Revenue Bonus for the remainder of the Performance Period, which will be paid in cash to Mr. Meckey no later than fifteen days following such Change in Control. For example, if a Change in Control transaction occurs on June 1, 2024 and Mr. Meckey remains employed by the Company on such date, then Mr. Meckey will receive a total Revenue Bonus equal to $666,666.66 for the 2024 and 2025 fiscal years ($333,333.33 for 2024 and $333,333.33 for 2025) and regardless of the Company’s actual level of attainment of the targeted level of revenue for the 2024 and 2025 fiscal years.

Except for payment of the Revenue Bonus that is triggered in connection with a Change in Control transaction in which case the form of payment shall always be in cash, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle its obligation to pay the Revenue Bonus in cash or in vested shares of the Company’s common stock, to be issued pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, with a then current fair market value equal to the amount of the cash payment, with such Company share value determined in the same manner that the Company calculates such fair market value for tax administration and withholding purposes.

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Meckey will be eligible to receive a bonus in the amount of $300,000.00 (the “Share Price Bonus”) if both of the following conditions are met: (i) the Company’s daily weighted average trading price per share during the 30-trading-day period commencing with the date immediately following the date of the Company’s earnings release for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 equals or exceeds a target share price as determined by the Board (the “Share Price Goal”), and (ii) Mr. Meckey remains employed with the Company through the applicable payment date of the Share Price Bonus which shall be no later than March 15, 2024. The Company may, in its sole discretion, settle its obligation to pay the Share Price Bonus in cash or in vested shares of the Company’s common stock, to be issued pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, with a then current fair market value equal to the amount of the cash payment, with such Company share value determined in the same manner that the Company calculates such fair market value for tax administration and withholding purposes.

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that, in the event that the Company terminates Mr. Meckey’s employment without Cause (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) or Mr. Meckey terminates his employment for Good Reason (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) otherwise than in connection with a Change in Control, in addition to what Mr. Meckey is entitled to receive under the CEO Employment Agreement, Mr. Meckey will also receive a pro-rated portion of his Revenue Bonus, if any, for the fiscal year in which Mr. Meckey’s employment terminates, based on the number of days that Mr. Meckey was employed by the Company during such fiscal year and the applicable level of achievement of the Revenue Goal for the year of termination as determined by the Board in

36

accordance with the terms of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (and for the avoidance of doubt, contingent upon achievement of the applicable threshold goal for such fiscal year), less standard deductions and withholdings, which will be paid at the same time as the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement otherwise provides for payment of the Revenue Bonus as if Mr. Meckey had remained employed through the applicable payment date, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement further provides that, if the Share Price Goal was achieved on or prior to the date of Mr. Meckey’s termination of employment, but the Share Price Bonus has not yet been paid, then the Share Price Bonus shall be paid to Mr. Meckey, less standard deductions and withholdings, on the later of (i) March 15, 2024 or (ii) the Release Effective Date (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement), subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that, in the event that the Company terminates Mr. Meckey’s employment without Cause (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) or Mr. Meckey terminates his employment for Good Reason (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) in connection with a Change in Control, in addition to what Mr. Meckey is entitled to receive under the CEO Employment Agreement, any remaining unpaid supplemental compensation that would have been paid to Mr. Meckey had Mr. Meckey continued his employment with the Company through January 1, 2025 shall be paid in a lump sum no later than thirty days after the later of the Release Effective Date or the date of the Change in Control, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, Mr. Meckey will be paid the target amount of Revenue Bonus for the remainder of the Performance Period commencing with the fiscal year that includes that date of Mr. Meckey’s termination of employment which shall be paid in cash, less standard deductions and withholdings, on the later of: (i) the Release Effective Date, or (ii) within the fifteen day period following the Change in Control, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that, if the Share Price Goal was achieved on or prior to the date of Mr. Meckey’s termination of employment, but the Share Price Bonus has not yet been paid, then the Share Price Bonus shall be paid in cash, less standard deductions and withholdings, on the later of: (i) the Release Effective Date, or (ii) within the fifteen day period following the Change in Control, subject to any delay in payment required for purposes of compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that, in the event Mr. Meckey’s employment is terminated as a result of his death or Complete Disability (as such term is defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement), in addition to what Mr. Meckey is entitled to receive under the CEO Employment Agreement, if the IGI Closing occurred on or prior to the date of Mr. Meckey’s termination and the IGI Bonus has not yet been paid to Mr. Meckey, the IGI Bonus shall be paid in cash, less standard deductions and withholdings, to Mr. Meckey or his estate on March 15, 2024. The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement further provides that, if Mr. Meckey’s employment terminates after the last date of any fiscal year within the Performance Period but prior to March 15 of the following year, Mr. Meckey or his estate shall receive the applicable amount of Revenue Bonus for such previously completed year, if any, as determined subject to attainment of the applicable performance goals (and for the avoidance of doubt, contingent upon achievement of the applicable threshold goal for such fiscal year), less standard deductions and withholdings, which will be payable in accordance with the terms of the Revenue Bonus provided in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement as a lump sum to Mr. Meckey or his estate on March 15 of the year immediately following the year of termination of Mr. Meckey’s employment. The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement also provides that, if Mr. Meckey’s employment terminates during any year within the Performance Period, Mr. Meckey or his estate shall also receive a pro-rated portion of his Revenue Bonus for the year of termination, if any, based on the number of days Mr. Meckey was employed during such fiscal year and the Company’s appliable level achievement of the Revenue Goals for the year of termination as determined by the Board in accordance with the terms of the Revenue Bonus provided in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (and for the avoidance of doubt, contingent upon achievement of the applicable threshold goal for such fiscal year) to be paid, less standard deductions and withholdings, as a lump sum to Mr. Meckey or his estate on March 15 of the year immediately following the year of termination of Mr. Meckey’s employment. The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement further provides that, if the Share Price Goal was achieved on or prior to the date of Mr. Meckey’s termination of employment, but the Share Price Bonus has not yet been paid, then the Share Price Bonus shall be paid, less standard deductions and withholdings, to Mr. Meckey or his estate on March 15, 2024.

37

The CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement does not make any other substantive changes to the terms and conditions of the CEO Employment Agreement or the CEO Amendment, and to the extent such terms and conditions have been previously stated in the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on either May 12, 2022 or January 13, 2023, such descriptions are incorporated by reference herein.

Release Agreement with Samuel J. Meckey

On October 6, 2023, the Company notified Samuel J. Meckey that pursuant to a decision made by the Board on October 5, 2023, his service as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company was terminated, effective immediately, and that he would cease to be an employee of the Company effective as of October 11, 2023 (the “Termination Date”). As previously disclosed in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023 filed with the SEC on November 21, 2023, in connection with Mr. Meckey’s termination, on November 17, 2023, the Company and Mr. Meckey entered into a waiver and release of claims (the “Release Agreement”), in accordance with Mr. Meckey’s CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement. The consideration for Mr. Meckey’s agreement to the Release Agreement consists of the severance compensation provided under, and subject to, the terms and conditions of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Release Agreement, provided that Mr. Meckey complies with all obligations set forth in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement that survive termination of his employment as provided therein, Mr. Meckey shall receive the following payments and benefits, subject to applicable tax withholding: (a) an amount equal to $780,000.00, representing 18 months of Mr. Meckey’s base salary, payable in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices over the 18 month period following the Termination Date; (b) an amount equal to $260,000.00, representing Mr. Meckey’s target 2023 bonus amount for the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023, payable on the Company’s first regular payroll date that is not earlier than six months and one day following the Termination Date; (c) contingent upon the Company’s 2023 performance as compared to the 2023 bonus plan performance goals, an amount equal to $146,956.52, representing Mr. Meckey’s target pro-rata 2023 bonus for the period from July 1, 2023 through the Termination Date, which if earned and payable shall be paid to Mr. Meckey on the Company’s first regular payroll date that is not earlier than six months and one day following the Termination Date; (d) contingent upon Mr. Meckey time electing continued coverage under COBRA, the Company will, at its expense, provide Mr. Meckey with the COBRA related benefits specified in and pursuant to the provisions of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with respect to termination without Cause (as defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) or for Good Reason (as defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement) and not in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement); (e) the 430,000 RSUs granted to Mr. Meckey on January 9, 2023 will fully vest upon the Effective Date; (f) an amount equal to $1,062,347.00, payable in a single lump sum on a date selected by the Company which is no later than January 1, 2024; (g) an amount equal to $734,115.00, payable in a single lump sum on January 1, 2025; and (h) contingent upon the Company’s 2023 performance as compared to the target revenue performance levels for fiscal 2023, a pro-rata portion of the performance bonus that Mr. Meckey is eligible to receive with respect to fiscal 2023, calculated pursuant to the provisions of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with respect to termination without Cause or for Good Reason and not in connection with a Change in Control, which if earned and payable shall be paid to Mr. Meckey at the same time as specified in the provisions of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement applicable to revenue performance bonuses as if Mr. Meckey had remained employed through the applicable payment date, and in all cases no later than March 15, 2024; provided, that if Mr. Meckey has not exercised his right to revoke the Release Agreement on or before November 24, 2023 (the seventh day following his execution and delivery thereof), then (1) the payments and benefits described in such clauses (a) and (d) above shall commence on November 25, 2023 (the eighth day following Mr. Meckey’s execution and delivery of the Release Agreement) and all amounts under such clauses (a) and (d) above shall be paid and provided as soon as practicable after November 25, 2023, and (2) notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above (other than as provided in the foregoing clause (1)), any other amounts otherwise scheduled to be paid to Mr. Meckey prior to the effectiveness of the Release Agreement, shall instead accrue and be paid as soon as practicable following the date that is the earlier of (x) Mr. Meckey’s receipt of the amount specified in clause (f) above, or (y) Mr. Meckey’s receipt of the amount payable to him in the event of a Change in Control being consummated within three months of the Termination Date, as described below (such earlier date, the “Effective Date”).

In addition to the payments and benefits described in clauses (a) through (f) of the immediately preceding paragraph, in the event that a Change in Control is consummated within three months of the Termination Date, and provided that

38

Mr. Meckey complies with all obligations set forth in the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement that survive termination of his employment as provided therein (and contingent upon effectiveness of the Release Agreement), the Company and Mr. Meckey have agreed that he shall be entitled to receive all amounts payable pursuant to the provisions of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with respect to termination without Cause or for Good Reason and in connection with a Change in Control, which have not already been paid to Mr. Meckey in accordance with clauses (a) through (f) of the immediately preceding paragraph.

In exchange for and in consideration of the severance benefits provided to Mr. Meckey pursuant to the termination provisions of the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions of such termination provisions in all respects, Mr. Meckey has agreed to a general release of claims in favor of the Company, and upon the effectiveness of the Release Agreement, Mr. Meckey shall have voluntarily released and forever discharged the Company, its affiliated and related entities, its and their respective predecessors, successors and assigns, its and their respective employee benefit plans and fiduciaries of such plans, and the current and former members, managers, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, attorneys, accountants and agents of each of the foregoing in their official and personal capacities (collectively referred to as the “Releasees”) generally from all claims, demands, debts, damages and liabilities of every name and nature, known or unknown (collectively, “Claims”) that, as of the date of the Release Agreement, Mr. Meckey has, ever had, now claims to have or ever claimed to have had against any or all of the Releasees. Such general release of Claims includes, among other things (and without implication of limitation), the release of all Claims: (a) relating to his employment by and termination from employment with the Company, including any Claims of breach of contract, wrongful discharge or violation of public policy; (b) of discrimination or retaliation under federal, state or local law, including, without limitation, Claims of age discrimination or retaliation under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), Claims of disability discrimination or retaliation under the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Claims of discrimination or retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; (c) under the California Family Rights Act, the California Labor Code, the California Workers’ Compensation Act, and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act; (d) under the Minnesota Human Rights Act (provided that Mr. Meckey may rescind the release of claims under such law within 15 calendar days of the execution of the Release Agreement by delivering a written notice of rescission to the Company as provided in the Release Agreement), the Minnesota Equal Pay for Equal Work Law, Minnesota health care worker whistleblower protection laws, the Minnesota family leave law, and Minnesota personnel record access statutes; (e) under any other federal or state statute or constitution or local ordinance; (f) of defamation or other torts; and (g) for damages or other remedies of any sort, including, without limitation, compensatory damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorney’s fees; provided, that the foregoing release shall not affect Mr. Meckey’s rights (i) under the Release Agreement, (ii) to the Accrued Benefit, (iii) to contractual or other legal right to indemnification under any written indemnification agreement with the Company, governance documents of the Company or under applicable law, (iv) to any claim that cannot be waived under applicable law or (iv) under any applicable director and liability insurance policy. Furthermore, Mr. Meckey has agreed not to accept damages of any nature, other equitable or legal remedies for his own benefit or attorney’s fees or costs from any of the Releasees with respect to any Claim released pursuant to the Release Agreement.

In respect of the foregoing general release of Claims, and as a material inducement to the Company to enter into the Release Agreement, Mr. Meckey has represented in the Release Agreement that he has not assigned any Claim to any third party. In addition, Mr. Meckey (i) has represented that, other than the consideration set forth in the Release Agreement, the Company has paid or provided all salary, wages, bonuses, accrued vacation/paid time off, premiums, leaves, housing allowances, relocation costs, interest, severance, outplacement costs, fees, reimbursable expenses, commissions, stock, stock options, vesting and any and all other benefits and compensation due to him, and (ii) has agreed that he is not entitled to any wages, salary, commissions, vacation, equity, bonuses, or any other compensation or benefits from the Company or any of its affiliates, except as is expressly set forth in the Release Agreement.

In addition to the general release of Claims described above, Mr. Meckey has acknowledged and agreed that (a) he is waiving and releasing any rights he may have under the ADEA as of the Effective Date, and such waiver and release is knowing and voluntary (and shall not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA following the Effective Date), and the consideration given for such waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Mr. Meckey was entitled pursuant to the CEO Amended and Restated Employment Agreement; (b) he has been advised in the Release Agreement (i) to consult with legal counsel prior to his execution thereof, (ii) that he has 45 days within which to consider the Release Agreement, (iii) that he has been provided certain information to consider in making the Release Agreement, including the class, unit, or group of individuals covered by the reduction in force applicable to his termination, the eligibility factors for such reduction in force, and the job titles

39

and ages of all individuals who were and were not selected, and (iv) that he may revoke the Release Agreement within 7 days following execution thereof and the Release Agreement shall not be effective until after such revocation period has expired; (c) nothing in the Release Agreement prevents or precludes Mr. Meckey from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of Mr. Meckey’s waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law; (d) by executing and delivering the Release Agreement to the Company in less than the 45-day period described above, Mr. Meckey has freely and voluntarily chosen to waive the time period allotted for considering the Release Agreement; and (e) revocation by Mr. Meckey of the Release Agreement must be accomplished by a written notification received by the Company prior to the eighth day following entry into the Release Agreement. Each of the Company and Mr. Meckey have agreed that any changes to the Release Agreement, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the 45-day period. Mr. Meckey has further agreed that he has been advised to consult with legal counsel and that he is familiar with the principle that a general release does not extend to claims that the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in their favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by them, must have materially affected their settlement with the released party, and Mr. Meckey has agreed to expressly waive any rights he may have to that effect, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect.

The terms of the Release Agreement reaffirm, and incorporate by reference therein, Mr. Meckey’s confidentiality, nondisclosure and nonsolicitation obligations to the Company and/or any affiliate of the Company, including without limitation pursuant to the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, dated May 12, 2023 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) (collectively, the “Ongoing Obligations”). Furthermore, Mr. Meckey has agreed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to keep the negotiations leading to the Release Agreement and the terms of the Release Agreement (“Release-Related Information”) completely confidential (except that Mr. Meckey may disclose Release-Related Information to his spouse, attorney and financial advisors, and to them only if they first agree for the benefit of the Company to keep Release-Related Information confidential); provided, that none of such confidentiality obligations with the respect to the Release-Related Information shall be construed to prevent Mr. Meckey from disclosing Release-Related Information to the extent required by a lawfully issued subpoena or duly issued court order, provided further, that Mr. Meckey provides the Company with advance written notice and a reasonable opportunity to contest such subpoena or court order.

Pursuant to the terms of the Release Agreement, Mr. Meckey has agreed (i) not to make any disparaging, critical or otherwise detrimental statements to any person or entity concerning any Releasee or the products or services of any Releasee and (ii) that he shall not use any Company information that is confidential either under applicable law or the Confidentiality Agreement to which Mr. Meckey had access during the scope of his employment with the Company in order to communicate with or solicit any of the Company’s current or prospective clients; provided, that such nondisparagement obligation shall in no way affect Mr. Meckey’s obligation to testify truthfully in any legal proceeding (nor shall anything contained in the Release Agreement apply to truthful testimony in litigation), and nothing in the Release Agreement limits Mr. Meckey’s ability to file a charge or complaint with any federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (a “Government Agency”), or to communicate with, or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by, any Governmental Agency (including the provision of documents or other information), without notice to the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Release Agreement, if Mr. Meckey files any charge or compliant with any Governmental Agency and it (or any other third party) pursues any claim on his behalf, Mr. Meckey waives any right to monetary or other individualized relief (either individually, or as part of any collective or class action); provided, that nothing contained in the Release Agreement limits any right Mr. Meckey may have to receive a whistleblower award or bounty for information provided to the SEC.

Employment Agreement with Dr. Ramesh Balakrishnan

On October 23, 2021, UpHealth entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Balakrishnan as its Chief Executive Officer. On July 11, 2022, Dr. Ramesh Balakrishnan transitioned out of his prior role as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. On July 31, 2022, Dr. Balakrishnan and the Company entered into an Amendment to the employment agreement, effective as of July 19, 2022 (the “Amendment”), for Dr. Balakrishnan’s new role as President and Chief Strategy Officer of the Company. As provided for in the Amendment, as of July 11, 2022, Dr. Balakrishnan had the title of President and Chief Strategy Officer and the duties and responsibilities commensurate with such position, and reported to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Prior to the Amendment, the employment agreement provided that “Good Reason” for Dr. Balakrishnan to terminate his employment shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without his consent: (i) a material adverse change in Dr. Balakrishnan’s title or a material reduction in Dr. Balakrishnan’s duties, authority, or responsibilities

40

relative to the duties, authority, or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction; (ii) the relocation of Dr. Balakrishnan’s primary work location to a point more than fifty miles from San Francisco, California; (iii) a material reduction by the Company of the Base Salary or annual target Bonus opportunity, without the written consent of Dr. Balakrishnan, as initially set forth in the employment agreement or as the same may be increased from time to time pursuant to the employment agreement, except for across-the-board salary reductions implemented prior to a change in control which are implemented based on the Company’s financial performance and similarly affecting all or substantially all senior management employees of the Company; and (iv) a material breach by the Company of the terms of the employment agreement; provided, however, that such termination by Dr. Balakrishnan of his employment shall only be deemed for Good Reason pursuant to the foregoing definition if (i) the Company is given written notice from Dr. Balakrishnan within sixty days following the first occurrence of the condition that he considers to constitute Good Reason describing the condition and the Company fails to satisfactorily remedy such condition within thirty days following such written notice, and (ii) Dr. Balakrishnan terminates employment within thirty days following the end of the period within which the Company was entitled to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason but failed to do so.

The Amendment adds to the foregoing that, notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to December 31, 2022, by delivery of written notice to the Company, Dr. Balakrishnan also may terminate his employment for any or no reason and without regard to the criteria or process set forth above. In the event of such termination, Dr. Balakrishnan shall be entitled to receive (i) the Base Salary, accrued but unpaid business expenses and accrued and unused vacation benefits earned through the date of termination at the rate in effect at the time of termination and (ii) shall be eligible to receive all compensation, equity, and benefits specified in the employment agreement for a termination for Good Reason, subject to Dr. Balakrishnan furnishing to the Company a Release within the applicable time period set forth therein, but in no event later than forty-five days following termination of employment and permitting such Release to become effective in accordance with its terms, and subject to Dr. Balakrishnan continuing to comply with his obligations pursuant to the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement (included as Exhibit A to the employment agreement).

The Amendment further provides that all other terms and conditions of the employment agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions related to Base Salary, Bonus and Equity Awards and all exhibits thereto, shall continue in full force and effect. The employment agreement provides that Dr. Balakrishnan will receive a base salary at an annual rate of $408,000, subject to increase from time to time as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee, with such base salary to be retroactive to June 9, 2021, as well as that he shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus of 100% of his base salary based on the Board’s determination, in good faith, as to whether applicable Performance Milestones have been achieved. As an inducement to Dr. Balakrishnan’s commencement of employment with the Company, the Board approved on October 20, 2021, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the grant of RSUs pursuant to and subject to the terms of the 2021 Equity Plan. The employment agreement terms provide for at will employment and the employment relationship may be terminated by either Dr. Balakrishnan or UpHealth at any time and for any reason or no reason.

Under his employment agreement, if Dr. Balakrishnan’s employment is terminated by UpHealth without cause or due to his resignation for good reason within twelve (12) months following a change in control subject to his execution of a Release, he will be eligible to receive (a) accrued but unpaid business expenses and vacation benefits, to be paid as a lump sum no later than thirty (30) days after the date of termination, (b) one times his base salary, to be paid as a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, (c) a pro-rated portion of his target bonus amount for the year of termination (or, if there is none and a change in control has occurred, one times the last target bonus in effect for Dr. Balakrishnan), to be paid within ten (10) days after the date the bonus is determined, (d) continued coverage under the Company’s medical, dental, life and disability insurance until the earlier of either (i) the end of twelve (12) months following the termination date, or, (ii) the date on which Dr. Balakrishnan begins full-time employment with another company or business entity which offers comparable health insurance coverage to Dr. Balakrishnan and (e) the vesting of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards will be fully accelerated such that on the effective date of such termination (or if later and a change in control has occurred, the date of the change in control) 100% of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards granted to Dr. Balakrishnan prior to such termination will be fully vested and immediately exercisable, if applicable, by Dr. Balakrishnan.

41

On December 27, 2022, Dr. Balakrishnan informed the Board that he is resigning from his role as President and Chief Strategy Officer of the Company effective December 30, 2022. There are no changes to the severance that Dr. Balakrishnan is entitled to receive upon his resignation pursuant to his employment agreement with the Company, as amended by the Amendment, as described above and as previously disclosed by the Company.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Policy

UpHealth’s Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the Board (or the Audit Committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) UpHealth or any of UpHealth’s subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of UpHealth’s shares of Common Stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

UpHealth’s Audit Committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent UpHealth enters into such transactions. The Audit Committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable to us than terms generally available from an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. No director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he or she is a related party, but that director is required to provide the Audit Committee with all material information concerning the transaction. UpHealth also requires each of UpHealth’s directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

Registration Rights Agreement

On June 5, 2019, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with, among others, GigAcquisitions2, LLC, which is an affiliate of Drs. Avi Katz and Raluca Dinu. The holders of securities that are a party to this agreement are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register their securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders have “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by the Company. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. There will be no penalties associated with delays in registering the securities under the Registration Rights Agreement.

Management Services Agreement

On September 5, 2019, TTC Healthcare, Inc. (“TTC Healthcare”), TTC Healthcare Partners, LLC (“TTC Partners”), and Rewi Enterprises LLC (“Rewi Enterprises”) entered into a Management Services Agreement (the “MSA”). Martin S. A.

Upon completion by TTC Healthcare of any Transaction (as defined in the MSA), Rewi Enterprises was also paid an advisory fee of 3.50% of the Aggregate Gross Consideration (as defined in the MSA). No management fee expenses were incurred for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Employee Relationships

Edna Boone Johnson, who served as the Company’s former Chief Communications and Corporate Marketing Officer from January 4, 2022 until January 6, 2023, is the spouse of Agnès Rey-Giraud, a director of the Company.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and before Ms. Johnson became employed by the Company in her former capacity, she provided investor relations and public relations communication services to the Company on a consulting basis and received 2,862 shares of Common Stock (on a post-Reverse Stock Split (as defined in the Annual Report on Form 10-K) basis). On January 4, 2022, Ms. Johnson entered into a Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with the Company providing for her employment as the Company’s Chief Communications and Corporate Marketing Officer. In this role, Ms. Johnson oversaw the Company’s communications and corporate marketing, inclusive of media relations, brand strategy, corporate social responsibility and digital strategy. The Letter Agreement provided that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, Ms. Johnson would receive aggregate compensation equal to approximately $900,000, consisting of a base salary of $300,000 and an initial equity award (“Initial Equity Award”) of RSUs with an aggregate grant date fair value of $600,000, as well as that she would be eligible receive a discretionary bonus equal to 45% of the base salary, or approximately $135,000 (collectively, the “2022 Compensation”). On January 24, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved the Initial Equity Award of 22,900 RSUs to Ms. Johnson (on a post-Reverse Stock Split basis) and on July 6, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved an additional award of 20,000 RSUs to Ms. Johnson

45

(on a post-Reverse Stock Split basis). In addition, on July 6, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved an award of 9,000 RSUs (on a post-Reverse Stock Split basis). The Letter Agreement provided for at will employment and the employment relationship could be terminated by either Ms. Johnson or the Company at any time and for any reason or no reason. On January 6, 2023, Ms. Johnson’s employment was terminated by the Company without cause. In connection with Ms. Johnson’s termination, on January 9, 2023, the Compensation Committee approved, and the Company and Ms. Johnson entered into, a Separation Agreement and Release, effective as of January 17, 2023 (the “Separation Agreement”). Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, which contains a customary release of claims in favor of the Company, (i) the Company agreed to pay Ms. Johnson a severance payment of $155,000, less applicable withholdings, which is the equivalent of six months of Ms. Johnson’s base salary in effect on the date of termination, to be paid out bi-weekly through normal payroll procedure after January 17, 2023 (the effective date of the Separation Agreement), (ii) the RSUs previously awarded to Ms. Johnson that were not yet vested will continue to be eligible for vesting under the same terms and conditions as provided in the grants for a period of six months from the date of termination, (iii) Ms. Johnson will be eligible for determination of a bonus for 2022 pursuant to the terms of her Letter Agreement and (iv) if Ms. Johnson timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, the Company will pay the health insurance premium beginning on January 17, 2023.

Includes an aggregate of 5,486,550 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by certain stockholders which are directors and/or

47

executive officers (or an affiliate thereof) of UpHealth, identified below (collectively, the “Stockholder Group”), in the amounts set forth below for each member of the Stockholder Group. The aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Stockholder Group constitutes 29.39% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as of the date of this filing.

As previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 20, 2023, on November 16, 2023, the Company agreed to sell 100% of the outstanding equity interests of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cloudbreak Health, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cloudbreak”), to Forest Buyer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”) and an affiliate of GTCR LLC, a leading private equity firm, pursuant to a membership interests purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated November 16, 2023, by and among the Company, Cloudbreak and Buyer (the “Sale” and all of the transactions and agreements contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, collectively, the “Transactions”). The Transactions are expected to close (the “Closing”) on the date that is the third business day following the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions to Closing, but in no event prior to March 15, 2024, unless consented to in writing by the Company and Buyer. The Sale, if and when consummated, will constitute a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company.

In connection and concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, on November 16, 2023, the Stockholder Group entered into a voting and support agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) with the Company and Buyer, pursuant to which the Stockholder Group has agreed, among other things, to vote (i) all of the shares of Common Stock owned of record or beneficially by held by them as of the date of the Voting Agreement and (ii) any additional shares of Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company acquired by the Stockholder Group or any of their respective affiliates prior to the record date for the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held for the purpose of voting to approve the Transactions (the “Stockholder Meeting”), in favor of the approval of the Transactions and against any proposals that would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of the Company or Cloudbreak contained in the Purchase Agreement or result in any condition set forth in the Purchase Agreement not being satisfied or not being fulfilled prior to the Closing. Accordingly, the Voting Agreement relates to, and the agreement by the Stockholder Group to vote in favor of the approval of the Transactions in accordance therewith may result in, a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company.

The Voting Agreement provides that, if any member of the Stockholder Group (i) fails to comply with its obligations to return any proxy card or voting instructions it receives in respect of the Stockholder Meeting in accordance with the Voting Agreement or (ii) otherwise attempts to vote its shares of Common Stock or other securities that are subject to the Voting Agreement, in person or by proxy, in a manner that is inconsistent with its obligations under the Voting Agreement (each, a “Triggering Event”), such member of the Stockholder Group will be deemed, upon and as of the time of such Triggering Event, to irrevocably appoint as its proxy and attorney-in-fact the officers of Buyer, each of them individually, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote such shares in accordance with the Voting Agreement.

The Voting Agreement restricts the ability of the Stockholder Group to transfer or sell shares of Common Stock, subject to certain limited exceptions. The obligations of the Stockholder Group under the Voting Agreement terminate automatically and without further action upon the earliest to occur of: (a) the valid termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) a change in the recommendation of the Board of Directors that the Transactions be approved by the Company’s stockholders in a manner that is adverse to Buyer, as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, (c) written notice of termination of the Voting Agreement by Buyer to the Stockholder Group or by mutual written agreement, (d) the time that the Company has obtained the affirmative vote in favor of the Transactions by the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class in person or by proxy at the Stockholder Meeting, and (e) the Closing.

Each member of the Stockholder Group expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the other members of the Stockholder Group.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our management team and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our Common Stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. These reporting persons are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS AND NOMINATIONS

TO BE PRESENTED AT 2024 ANNUAL MEETING

SEC rules permit stockholders to submit proposals for inclusion in our 2024 proxy statement by satisfying the requirements set forth in Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. These stockholder proposals must be submitted, along with proof of ownership of our stock in accordance with Rule 14a-8(b)(2), to the Secretary at our principal executive offices, located at 14000 S. Military Trail, Suite 203, Delray Beach, Florida 33484, no later than the close of business on August 14, 2024 (120 days prior to the anniversary of this year’s mailing date). If the 2024 annual meeting is held more than 30 days before or after the first anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and send its proxy materials for the 2024 annual meeting, which we deem to be the later of 90 days prior to the 2024 annual meeting or 10 days following the Company’s first public announcement of the date of such meeting. Failure to deliver a proposal in accordance with these procedures may result in it being deemed not timely received.

Submitting a stockholder proposal does not guarantee that we will include it in our 2024 proxy statement. Stockholder proposals that do not meet the requirements set forth above may be excluded from our 2024 proxy statement as provided under Rule 14a-8. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews all stockholder proposals submitted for inclusion in our proxy statements and makes recommendations to the Board for actions on such proposals. For information on qualifications of director nominees considered by our Nominating and Corporate Governance committee, see the “Corporate Governance” section of this Proxy Statement.

Stockholders who intend to present a director nomination or other proposal at an annual meeting must comply with the advance notice provisions contained in our Bylaws, which include delivering notice of such nomination or other proposal to our Secretary at our principal executive offices no earlier than 120 and no later than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting as first specified in the Company’s notice of meeting (without regard to any postponements or adjournments of such meeting after the notice was first given). Based on the Annual Meeting date of December 27, 2023, a stockholder’s notice will be considered timely for the 2024 annual meeting if it is received by our Secretary no earlier than August 29, 2024, and no later than September 28, 2024. However, if the 2024 annual meeting is held more than 30 days before or after the first anniversary of the Annual Meeting, such stockholder’s notice must be delivered to our Secretary by the later of 90 days prior to the 2024 annual meeting or 10 days following the Company’s first public announcement of the date of such meeting. The stockholder’s notice must satisfy the information requirements of Section 3.2 of our Bylaws with respect to each director nomination and Section 2.7 of our Bylaws with respect to each other proposal that such stockholder intends to present at the 2024 annual meeting.

In addition to satisfying the foregoing advance notice requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, the notice given by any stockholder who intends to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must comply with any additional requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act.

We will not entertain any nominations or other proposals at an annual meeting that do not satisfy the advance notice requirements set forth in our Bylaws or the requirements established by the SEC. For nominations or other proposals that are properly submitted and timely filed, if the stockholder does not also comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-4(c)(2) under the Exchange Act, we may exercise discretionary voting under proxies that we solicit to vote in accordance with our best judgment on any such stockholder proposal, provided that we include in our proxy statement advice on the nature of the proposal and how we intend to exercise our voting discretion. To make a

50

submission or request a copy of our Bylaws, stockholders should contact our Secretary at our principal executive offices. Our Bylaws are also available online through the SEC’s EDGAR website as Exhibit 3.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 24, 2022. We strongly encourage stockholders to seek advice from knowledgeable counsel before submitting a nomination or other proposal.

TRANSACTION OF OTHER BUSINESS

At the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board knows of no other business that will be conducted at this Annual Meeting other than as described in this Proxy Statement. If any other matter or matters are properly brought before the meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote the proxy on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

STOCKHOLDERS SHARING THE SAME LAST NAME AND ADDRESS

To reduce the expense of delivering duplicate proxy materials to stockholders who may have more than one account holding UpHealth stock but sharing the same address, we have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, certain stockholders of record who have the same address and last name will receive only one copy of our proxy materials until such time as one or more of these stockholders notifies us that they want to receive separate copies. This procedure reduces duplicate mailings and saves printing costs and postage fees, as well as natural resources. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions.

If you receive a single set of proxy materials as a result of householding, and you would like to have separate copies of our proxy materials mailed to you, please submit a request to our Secretary at our principal executive offices, or call MZ North America, our investor relations consultant, at (203) 741-8811, and we will promptly send you what you have requested. You can also contact MZ North America at the phone number above if you received multiple copies of the proxy materials and would prefer to receive a single copy in the future, or if you would like to opt out of householding for future mailings.

By order of the Board of Directors,

/s/ Dr. Avi S. Katz
