SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

This Share Exchange Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (this "Agreement"), dated as of October 1, 2021, is entered into between U.S. NEUROSURGICAL, INC., a Delaware corporation ("USN") and ELITE HEALTH PLAN, INC., a California corporation (the "Company") and all of the Company Shareholders listed on Schedule 1.01 hereto (the “Shareholders”).  The Shareholders, the Company and USN are sometimes referred to herein as the "Parties."  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings given to such terms herein.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, USN, the Company and the Shareholders have agreed to a share-for-share exchange  pursuant to which (i) all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, 400,000 shares of no par value Common Stock  (the "Company Shares"), all of which are owned by the Shareholders, would be exchanged for (ii) 300 shares of newly issued Common Stock, par value $0.01per share, of USN (the "USN Shares"), in a transaction which qualifies as a reorganization and tax free exchange under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Share Exchange”).  In the aggregate, the 300 USN Shares issuable to the Shareholders (the "New USN Shares") will represent fifteen percent (15%) of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of USN as of and immediately after the Closing; and

WHEREAS, the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of USN and the Company have independently determined that it is in the best interests of all of the Parties and their shareholders to execute and effectuate this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE

Section 1.01        Exchange of Company Shares for New USN Shares. At the Closing, each of the Shareholders shall sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to USN the Company Shares set forth on Schedule 1.01 hereto, free and clear of any mortgage, pledge, lien, charge, security interest, claim, community property interest, option, equitable interest, restriction of any kind (including any restriction on use, voting, transfer, receipt of income, or exercise of any other ownership attribute), or other encumbrance (each, an "Encumbrance"), in exchange for the New USN Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances.

Section 1.02        Pre-Closing Capitalization.  Prior to Closing, USN shall take all corporate action and shall obtain all required regulatory approvals to increase the number of shares of authorized common stock to allow for the issuance of the New USN Shares.

4

Section 1.03        Treatment as Reorganization.  For federal income tax purposes, the Share Exchange is intended to constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code, and the parties shall report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement consistent with such intent and shall take no position in any tax filing or legal proceeding inconsistent therewith.  The parties to this Agreement hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

ARTICLE II
CLOSING

Section 2.01        Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place on the business day following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement (other than conditions with respect to actions that the respective parties will take at Closing) or such other date and time as the Parties may mutually determine (the "Closing Date") in the manner as the Parties may mutually agree upon. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed to occur at 12:01 a.m. New York time on the Closing Date.

Section 2.02        Company and Shareholders Deliverables. At the Closing, the Company and the Shareholders shall deliver to USN the following:

(a)          Share certificates evidencing the Company Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers or other instruments of transfer duly executed in blank, with all required share transfer tax stamps affixed thereto.

(b)         A certificate of the Secretary (or other officer) of the Company certifying: (i) that attached thereto are true and complete copies of all resolutions of the board of directors of the Company authorizing the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement, and the other agreements, instruments, and documents required to be delivered in connection with this Agreement or at the Closing (collectively, the "Transaction Documents") to which either the Company and the Shareholders is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and that such resolutions are in full force and effect; (ii) the names, titles, and signatures of the officers of the Company authorized to sign this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; and (iii) that attached thereto are true and complete copies of the governing documents of the Company, including any amendments or restatements thereof, and that such governing documents are in full force and effect.

(c)          Resignations of the directors and officers of the Company, effective as of the Closing Date.

(d)         A certificate of status for the Company from the Secretary of State of the State of California and a certificate of good standing (or its equivalent) for the Company certified by the Secretary of State or similar Governmental Authority of each state where the Company is required to be qualified, registered, or authorized to do business. The term "Governmental Authority" means any federal, state, local, or foreign government or political subdivision thereof, or any agency or instrumentality of such government or political subdivision, or any arbitrator, court, or tribunal of competent jurisdiction.

5

(e)          A certificate pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b) that none of the Shareholders is a foreign person within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the "Code").

Section 2.03        USN Deliverables. At the Closing, USN shall deliver the following to the Shareholders:

(a)          Share certificates evidencing the New USN Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances, or other appropriate evidence of the ownership of the New USN Shares.

(b)         A certificate of the Secretary (or other officer) of USN certifying: (i) that attached thereto are true and complete copies of all resolutions of the board of directors of USN authorizing the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and that such resolutions are in full force and effect; and (ii) the names, titles, and signatures of the officers of USN authorized to sign this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

Section 2.04        Conditions to Closing.  On or before the closing, the Parties will resolve the approximately $167,000 of current obligations on the balance sheet of the Company (the “Current Obligation”), through the exchange of the Current Obligation into equity in the Company or the establishment of other arrangements satisfactory to the parties.  If such obligation is to be exchanged for equity in the Company prior to the closing, Schedule 1.01, the identity of the Shareholders, will be adjusted to include the identity of the obligee of the Current Obligation, and the number of New USN Shares to be issued to the currently listed Shareholder will be reduced to accommodate this modification so that the total number of New USN Shares remains as indicated on Schedule 1.01.  If such obligation is not satisfied prior to the closing, it shall be satisfied after closing by re-allocating, at the direction of the holder of the Current Obligation, a portion of the New USN Shares issued to the Shareholders as provided in Schedule 1.01, with the New USN Shares to be retained by the listed Shareholders reduced pro rata.  The Parties shall mutually agree on the number of New USN Shares to be re-allocated to satisfy the Current Obligation.

Section 2.05        Post-Closing Matters.  The Parties understand that there is currently no public trading market for the shares of Common Stock of USN.  If there is no public trading market for the Common Stock of USN at the end of six (6) months from the Closing Date, the Shareholders may request, by delivering written notice of a majority in interest of the Shareholders, that USN take steps that would provide for a trading market for the New USN Shares.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, should management of USN determine at the time of such request that providing for a trading market for the New USN Shares is impractical, it shall take steps to provide for such trading market a reasonable time thereafter or pursue an alternative transaction that will result in the holders of the New USN Shares owning shares of a publicly-traded company, such as through an exchange of the New USN Shares for the economical equivalent number of shares of USN’s parent company, U.S. NeuroSurgical Holdings, Inc.

If the Company or the Shareholders, or their respective Representatives, are compelled to disclose any information by Governmental Order or Law, such party shall promptly notify USN in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information which is legally required to be disclosed; provided, however, the Company or the Shareholders shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as possible an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.  Following the Closing, it shall be the responsibility of USN to ensure that the confidentiality provisions in place at the time of the Closing are maintained.

14

(c)          The Shareholders acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.02 would give rise to irreparable harm to USN, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by the Shareholders of any such obligations, USN shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, or specific performance (without any requirement to post bond).

(d)          The Shareholders acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.02 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of USN and constitute a material inducement to USN to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
