STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of January 9, 2020, is made by and among R1 RCM Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), Clearsight Intermediate Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller Blocker”) and Clearsight Group Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in ARTICLE 11 below.
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Seller Blocker owns and, as of the Closing Date, the Seller Blocker will continue to own all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of scheduling.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”);
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Seller owns and, as of the Closing Date, Seller will continue to own all of the issued and outstanding Stock of the Seller Blocker; and
WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser desires to purchase from Seller, and Seller desires to sell to Purchaser, all of the issued and outstanding Stock of the Seller Blocker.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1

PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE STOCK
1.1    Purchase and Sale of Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Seller will sell, assign, transfer and convey to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase and acquire from Seller, all of the Stock, free and clear of all Liens, in exchange for the aggregate payment of the Estimated Purchase Price.
1.2    Purchase Price.
(a)    The “Purchase Price” means an amount equal to (i) the Base Purchase Price, plus (ii) the amount by which Closing Net Working Capital exceeds Target Net Working Capital, minus (iii) the amount by which Target Net Working Capital exceeds Closing Net Working Capital, plus (iv) the amount of Closing Cash, minus (v) the outstanding amount of Closing Indebtedness, minus (vi) the amount of Closing Transaction Expenses, minus (vii) the Adjustment Escrow Amount, plus (viii) the Earn-Out Payments, if and to the extent payable pursuant to Section 1.6.
(b)    No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Seller Blocker shall deliver to Purchaser (i) a certificate (which will be subject to Purchaser’s review and comment and Seller shall consider any such comments in good faith) setting forth the Company’s good faith estimate of (A) the Closing Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), (B) Closing Cash (the “Estimated Cash”), (C) the Closing Indebtedness (the “Estimated

33067829.14



Indebtedness”), (D) the Closing Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”), (E) the Estimated Purchase Price, (F) the Botanist Transaction Expenses that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount (the “Estimated Botanist Transaction Expenses”), and (G) a schedule of Revenue for Existing Customers of the Company, as defined on Schedule 1.6 (such Revenue, the “Existing Customer TTM Revenue” and such estimate, the “Estimated Existing Customer TTM Revenue”); and (ii) such reasonable documentation (including supporting calculations and schedules) used by the Company in connection with the preparation of Estimated Net Working Capital, Estimated Cash, Estimated Indebtedness, Estimated Transaction Expenses, Estimated Botanist Transaction Expenses, Estimated Purchase Price and Estimated Existing Customer TTM Revenue. “Estimated Purchase Price” means an amount equal to (1) the Base Purchase Price, plus (2) the amount, if any, by which Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds Target Net Working Capital, minus (3) the amount, if any, by which Target Net Working Capital exceeds Estimated Net Working Capital, plus (4) the amount of Estimated Cash, minus (5) the amount of Estimated Indebtedness, minus (6) the amount of Estimated Transaction Expenses, minus (7) the Adjustment Escrow Amount.
1.3    The Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely by exchange of electronic signature pages on the second Business Day following full satisfaction or waiver of all of the closing conditions set forth in ARTICLE 2 hereof (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions) or on such other date as is mutually agreeable to Purchaser and Seller; provided, that in no event shall the Closing take place prior to the first Business Day that is at least thirty days after the date hereof without the prior written consent of Purchaser (it being understood that Purchaser may condition such consent to close on an earlier date upon the simultaneous completion of the Debt Financing). The date and time of the Closing are referred to herein as the “Closing Date,” and the Closing will be deemed to have occurred on the open of business on the Closing Date. By mutual agreement of the parties, the Closing may take place by conference call and electronic (i.e., email/pdf) or facsimile exchange of signatures.
1.4    The Closing Transactions. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto shall consummate the following transactions (the “Closing Transactions”) on the Closing Date:
(a)    Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the certificate representing the Stock, duly endorsed in blank for transfer or accompanied by duly a executed stock powers;
(b)    Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller the Estimated Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by Seller (which account(s) shall be designated by Seller to Purchaser in writing at least three (3) Business Days before the Closing Date);
(c)    no fewer than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser the Payoff Letters;
(d)    Purchaser shall repay, or cause to be repaid, on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries, all amounts necessary to discharge fully the then outstanding balance of all Estimated Indebtedness as set forth in the Payoff Letters, by wire transfer of immediately available

2
33067829.14



funds to the account(s) designated by the holders of such Estimated Indebtedness in the Payoff Letters;
(e)    Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, the Adjustment Escrow Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Escrow Agent;
(f)    Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries, all amounts necessary to discharge fully the then-outstanding balance of all Estimated Transaction Expenses and Botanist Transaction Expenses that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the account(s) designated by each Person to whom such Estimated Transaction Expenses or Estimated Botanist Transaction Expenses are to be paid; provided, that any Estimated Transaction Expenses or Estimated Botanist Transaction Expenses treated as wages or other compensation for services to a current or former employee of the Company shall be paid to the Company, which shall pay such amounts, less applicable withholding Taxes, to the applicable recipient through its payroll system on the first payroll date following the Closing Date or, if later for a particular recipient, the first payroll date occurring after any release required to be signed by the recipient in connection with such payment becomes effective by its terms; and
(g)    Purchaser and Seller shall make such other deliveries as are required by ARTICLE 2 thereof.
1.5    Purchase Price Adjustments.
(a)    As promptly as possible, but in any event within 120 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser will deliver to Seller a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of (i) the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Botanist Transaction Expenses (that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount) and Closing Transaction Expenses and a calculation of the Purchase Price (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) and (ii) Existing Customer TTM Revenue (the “Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement”). The Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Botanist Transaction Expenses (that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount) and Closing Transaction Expenses shall each be determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with the definitions set forth in this Agreement and the Agreed Accounting Principles. After delivery of the Preliminary Closing Statement and Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement, Purchaser shall give Seller and its representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to review the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ material books and records and work papers related to the preparation of the Preliminary Closing Statement and Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement for the purpose of assisting Seller in its review thereof. The Seller and its representatives may make reasonable inquiries of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Preliminary Closing Statement and Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement arising in the course of its review thereof, and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such accountants to cooperate with and respond to such inquiries. If Seller has any objections to the Preliminary Closing Statement or the Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a written statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”). If an Objections Statement is not

3
33067829.14



delivered to Purchaser within 45 days after delivery of the Preliminary Closing Statement and the Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement, the Preliminary Closing Statement and the Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable; provided that, in the event the Company or any of its Subsidiaries does not provide any papers or documents reasonably requested by Seller or any of its representatives within five (5) Business Days of request therefor, such 45-day period will be extended by one (1) day for each additional day required for Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to fully respond to such request. The Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections, but if they do not reach a final resolution within 30 days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, Seller and Purchaser shall submit such dispute to Deloitte or such other mutually acceptable dispute resolution firm (the “Dispute Resolution Firm”). Any submissions to the Dispute Resolution Firm must be written and delivered to each party to the dispute. The Dispute Resolution Firm shall consider only those items and amounts which are identified in the Objections Statement as being items which Seller and Purchaser are unable to resolve. The Dispute Resolution Firm shall not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item, or lower than the lowest value of such item, claimed in any notice of disagreement presented to the Dispute Resolution Firm pursuant hereto. The Dispute Resolution Firm’s determination will be based solely on the definitions of Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Transaction Expenses, Botanist Transaction Expenses, the Purchase Price and Existing Customer TTM Revenue (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.5), as applicable, contained herein. The Seller and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Dispute Resolution Firm to resolve all disagreements as soon as practicable and in any event within 30 days after the submission of any dispute. Further, the Dispute Resolution Firm’s determination shall be based solely on the presentations by Purchaser and Seller which are in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The resolution of the dispute by the Dispute Resolution Firm shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto. The costs and expenses of the Dispute Resolution Firm shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party in the presentation to the Dispute Resolution Firm. For example, if Seller submits an Objections Statement for $1,000, and if Purchaser contests only $500 of the amount claimed by Seller, and if the Dispute Resolution Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Seller $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Dispute Resolution Firm will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300/500) to Purchaser and 40% (i.e., 200/500) to Seller. The Preliminary Closing Statement and the Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement shall be revised as appropriate to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 1.5, and, as so revised, such Preliminary Closing Statement and Preliminary Customer TTM Revenue Statement, as applicable, shall be deemed to set forth the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Botanist Transaction Expenses (that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount), Closing Transaction Expenses, the Purchase Price and Existing Customer TTM Revenue (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.5), in each case, for all purposes hereunder.
(b)    Payment of the Purchase Price Adjustment.
(i)    If the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.5(a) above is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price or the Botanist Transaction

4
33067829.14



Expenses (that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount) as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.5(a) above is greater than the Estimated Botanist Transaction Expenses, Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller the amount of such excess.
(ii)    If the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.5(a) above is less than the Estimated Purchase Price or the Botanist Transaction Expenses (that were not included in the Botanist Cash Amount) as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.5(a) above is less than the Estimated Botanist Transaction Expenses, Seller and Purchaser shall (A) first, promptly cause an amount equal to the amount of such shortfall to be paid to Purchaser from the Adjustment Escrow Funds and (B) second, to the extent the amount of such shortfall exceeds the Adjustment Escrow Funds, Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser the amount of such shortfall in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Funds.
(iii)    The Purchaser and/or Seller, as applicable, shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) deliver to the other party any amounts determined pursuant to this Section 1.5(b) to be due by such party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable. Seller and Purchaser shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) deliver joint instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay from the Adjustment Escrow Funds, to an account or accounts designed by Purchaser an amount equal to any amounts determined pursuant to this Section 1.5(b) to be due by Seller to Purchaser. Immediately following payment of any amounts determined pursuant to this Section 1.5(b) to be owing to Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser shall deliver joint instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to Seller all remaining Adjustment Escrow Funds, in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
(c)    The Purchaser and Seller agree that the procedures set forth in this Section 1.5 for resolving disputes with respect to the Preliminary Closing Statement shall be the sole and exclusive method for resolving any such disputes; provided, that this provision shall not prohibit either party from instituting litigation to enforce any final determination of the Purchase Price by the Dispute Resolution Firm pursuant to Section 1.5(a) in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 12.19. It is the intent of the parties to have any final determination of the Purchase Price by the Dispute Resolution Firm proceed in an expeditious manner; however, any deadline or time period contained herein may be extended or modified by the written agreement of Seller and Purchaser, and Seller and Purchaser agree that the failure of the Dispute Resolution Firm to strictly conform to any deadline or time period contained herein shall not be a basis for seeking to overturn any determination rendered by the Dispute Resolution Firm which otherwise conforms to the terms of this Section 1.5.
1.6    Earn-Out Payment.
(a)    Earn-Out Payment. Purchaser shall pay the Earn-Out Payment to Seller as provided in this Section 1.6 if, and only if, the Earn-Out Conditions as set forth on Schedule 1.6 are satisfied in full as of the end of the Earn-Out Period.
(b)    Delivery of Earn-Out Statement; Making of Earn-Out Payment.

5
33067829.14



(i)    Promptly and in any event with sixty (60) days following the end of the Earn-Out Period, Purchaser shall (A) prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Earn-Out Statement”) setting forth a detailed report on and description of whether each of the Earn-Out Conditions have been satisfied and (B) if all of the Earn-Out Conditions have been satisfied, make payment to the Seller of the Earn-Out Payment.
(ii)    After delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, Purchaser shall give Seller reasonable access during normal business hours to review the relevant books and records, work papers and other supporting documentation prepared or reviewed by Purchaser and its representatives in connection with the preparation of the Earn-Out Statement and the determination of the satisfaction of the Earn-Out Conditions and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with and respond to inquiries by Seller in connection with its review of such Earn-Out Statement (including by providing, upon prior written notice, reasonable access to the representatives of Purchaser, during normal business hours, who participated in the preparation of the Earn-Out Statement and the satisfaction of the Earn-Out Conditions).
(c)    Resolution of Disputes. If Seller notifies Purchaser of any objection to the Earn-Out Statement or the determination of whether the Earn-Out Conditions have been satisfied, then Purchaser and Seller shall confer in good faith for a period of up to 30 days following receipt of such notice in an attempt to resolve such dispute. If, after the 30-day period, Purchaser and Seller cannot resolve their dispute, then Purchaser or Seller may initiate a dispute resolution in accordance with Section 1.5(a).
(d)    Earn-Out Covenants. During the Earn-Out Period, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to:
(i)    use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy the Earn-Out Conditions;
(ii)    refrain from taking or omitting to take any action, the primary purpose of which, is to avoid satisfying the Earn-Out Conditions or making the Earn-Out Payment;
(iii)    use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Company and its Subsidiaries have an amount of working capital that is sufficient to operate in a manner consistent with ordinary course and currently planned future operations as of the date of this Agreement; and
(iv)    not offer any discounts, price reductions, credits or other similar incentives (unless applicable credits are included in the Revenue calculation for the Earn-Out Period) in respect of the products and services of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practices applicable to the Company and its Subsidiaries;

6
33067829.14



provided, that, each party hereby agrees that any actions taken by Purchaser, the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with operation of the business of the Company in good faith shall not be considered a breach of this Section 1.6(d).
(e)    In the event Purchaser divests all or substantially all of the business or equity interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the Earn-Out Period, it shall require the acquirer to assume all of the Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 1.6.
1.7    Withholding. Purchaser, the Company, their respective Affiliates, and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, as applicable. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted and paid to the appropriate Tax authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any compensatory amounts payable pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement shall be remitted to the Company, its Subsidiaries, or their applicable payroll agent, as applicable, for payment to the applicable Person through regular payroll procedures, as applicable.

(d)    Purchaser shall not permit or consent, without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, denied or conditioned), to (i) any amendment, supplement or modification to be made to the Debt Commitment Letter if such amendment, supplement or modification would (A) change, expand or impose new conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing from those set forth therein on the date hereof in a manner that could reasonably be expected to materially affect the timely availability of, or the amount of, the Debt Financing, (B) materially delay the funding of the Debt Financing or reasonably be expected to materially impair, delay or prevent availability of all or a material portion of the Debt Financing or the consummation of the Transactions, (C) reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Debt Financing) below the amount necessary to fund the Required Amount (taking into account cash on hand and other available sources of cash) or (D) otherwise materially adversely affect the ability of Purchaser to consummate the Transactions or the timing of the Closing (collectively, the “Restricted Commitment Letter Amendments”), (ii) any waiver of any remedy available to Purchaser under the Debt Commitment Letter (unless such waiver would not be a Restricted Commitment Letter Amendment), or (iii) early termination of the Debt Commitment Letter.
(e)    Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of Seller Blocker, the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, third-party claims, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs

33067829.14



and expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with their cooperation in arranging the Debt Financing and the performance of their respective obligations under this Section 7.6 and the provision of any information utilized in connection therewith (other than with respect to information, including historical information and financial statements, provided by the Company or its Subsidiaries), in each case, other than to the extent any of the foregoing was suffered or incurred as a result of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of this Agreement by, Seller Blocker, the Company and its Subsidiaries or representatives. Purchaser shall, promptly upon request of the Company, reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries (including those of its affiliates and representatives) in connection with the cooperation required by Section 6.6).
ARTICLE 8    

INDEMNIFICATION
8.1    Non-survival of Representations, Warranties and Certain Covenants. Except as otherwise set forth herein, none of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedules and exhibits attached hereto) will survive the Closing, except for (a) those with respect to Indemnified Taxes which shall survive until the date that is 12 months following the Closing Date and (b) those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms require performance after the Closing shall survive in accordance with their terms (the “Surviving Covenants”). Other than with respect to Fraud, none of the Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates, nor any of their respective successors and permitted assigns, heirs, officers, employees, directors, managers, members, partners, stockholders or representatives, will have any Liability whatsoever with respect to any such representations, warranties, covenants or agreements. Nothing in Section 8.1 shall limit or prohibit the ability or rights of Purchaser to pursue recoveries under any representation and warranty insurance policy obtained by Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to bring an Action for Fraud by the Seller or the Company.
8.2    Indemnification. From and after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries) and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) for any and all Losses to the extent arising from, relating to or resulting from (a) Indemnified Taxes and (b) Fraud.
8.3    Limitation on Indemnification Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any claims an Indemnified Party makes under this ARTICLE 8 will be limited as follows:
(a)    Limitation of Losses. Seller shall not be liable to the Indemnified Parties for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) for any Losses that exceed 25% of the consideration received by Seller pursuant to ARTICLE 1.

54
33067829.14



(b)    Losses Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Third-Party Recoveries. All Losses for which any Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE 8 shall be reduced by any amount of insurance proceeds and other third-party recoveries actually received by the Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses, in each case, net of expenses and costs incurred in securing such proceeds or recovery. In the event that any such insurance proceeds or other third-party recoveries that would reduce Losses in accordance with this Agreement are received by an Indemnified Party subsequent to receipt by such Indemnified Party of any indemnification payment hereunder in respect of the claims to which such insurance proceeds or other third-party recoveries relate, the relevant Indemnified Party shall within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such insurance proceeds or other third party recoveries remit the amount of the previously received indemnification payment up to the amount of insurance or other third party recovery, net of expenses and costs incurred in securing such proceeds or recovery; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt in no event shall such Indemnified Party have any obligation to remit to Seller, any portion of such insurance proceeds or other third-party recoveries in excess of the indemnification payment actually received by such Indemnified Party with respect to such claims. Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery for any Losses indemnifiable hereunder under the representations and warranties insurance policy it obtains in connection with this Agreement and the Botanist Purchase Agreement.
(c)    Losses Taken Into Account in Determining Purchase Price. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Losses to the extent included in the calculation of the Purchase Price (as finally determined in accordance with Section 1.5) resulting in a lower Purchase Price than if such Losses had been excluded from such calculation.
(d)    Adjustment to Purchase Price. All amounts paid with respect to indemnification claims under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties hereto for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price (as finally determined in accordance with Section 1.5) unless otherwise required by applicable law.
(e)    Punitive or Exemplary Damages. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification with respect to any Loss for any amounts in respect of punitive or exemplary damages except to the extent paid or owing to a third party.
(f)    Mitigation. In the event of any event or circumstance giving rise to an indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 8.2, Purchaser shall take, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to take, all commercially reasonable measures to mitigate the Losses arising from such breach to the extent required by Delaware Law; provided that the reasonable costs of such mitigation shall be deemed to be Losses for which the Indemnifying Party would have an indemnification obligation under Section 8.2.
8.4    Indemnification Claim Procedures.
(a)    If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) by any Indemnified Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify Seller (the “Indemnifying Party”) and (ii) deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (the “Claim Notice”) (A) describing in reasonable detail the

55
33067829.14



nature of the Action, to the extent then known by such Indemnified Party, (B) including, subject to any restrictions under Law, a copy of all papers served with respect to such Action, (C) including the Indemnified Party’s estimate of the amount of Losses that may arise from such Action (if known and quantifiable by the Indemnified Party), and (D) describing the basis for the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Failure to notify the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Section 8.4(a) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent the defense of such Action is materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such Claim Notice.
(b)    Within thirty (30) days after receipt of an Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party (at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense) may elect to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of any Action subject to any such Indemnification Claim with nationally recognized counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of any Action in accordance with this Section 8.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall nonetheless have the right to employ counsel separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such Action and to participate in such defense, at the Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense; provided that the documented and reasonable costs and expenses of one counsel and local counsel, to the extent necessary, shall be reimbursed reasonably promptly by the Indemnifying Party to the extent that such Indemnified Party has been advised by outside counsel that such Action involves a claim which would be reasonably likely to present a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Indemnified Party) and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party to the extent that (A) the Action relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (B) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to such Action could be detrimental to or injure the reputation or future business prospects of the Indemnified Party (including, with respect to Purchaser, the Business); (C) the Action seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; (D) the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; (E) upon petition by the Indemnified Party an appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim; or (F) the Action relates to or arises in connection with a Material Contract.
(c)    If the Indemnified Party gives the Indemnifying Party a Claim Notice and the Indemnifying Party does not, within thirty (30) days after such Claim Notice is given, (i) give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of the Action subject to such Indemnification Claim and (ii) thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, such Action; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such

56
33067829.14



Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
(d)    The Indemnifying Party shall the have right to settle or compromise any such Action, and each Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the conduct of such defense by the Indemnifying Party and/or the settlement of such Action by the Indemnifying Party (at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense); provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if pursuant to or as a result of such judgment, settlement or compromise, injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnified Party or if such judgment, settlement or compromise does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Action, without prejudice.
(e)    At the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnifying Party and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records, employees and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent legally permissible and reasonably related to the matters to which the applicable Indemnification Claim relates, except in the case of a dispute between the Indemnifying and Indemnified Parties related to such Indemnification Claim. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under the conditions which shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party.
(f)    If Seller is required to indemnify any Indemnified Party pursuant to this ARTICLE 8 (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.3), then Seller promptly, within five (5) Business Days, pay to such Indemnified Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by Purchaser the amount of such indemnifiable Losses.
(g)    In the event of any claim in respect of indemnifiable Losses that do not arise from an Action (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnifying Party and (ii) deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (the “Direct Claim Notice”) (A) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Direct Claim, (B) including the Indemnified Party’s estimate (to the extent known or reasonably quantifiable) of the amount of Losses that may arise from such Direct Claim, and (C) describing the basis for the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Failure to notify an Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Section 8.4(g) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent the defense of such claim is materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such Direct Claim Notice. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Direct Claim Notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim (the “Response Period”). During the Response Period, the Indemnified Party will cooperate in good faith with and assist the Indemnifying Party and its representatives to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and to determine whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall give such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as

57
33067829.14



the Indemnifying Party or any of its representatives may reasonably request in order to complete such investigation and make such determination as to whether any amount is indemnifiable in respect of such Direct Claim as soon as reasonably practicable. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within Response Period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted such claim, in which case, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly, within five (5) Business Days, pay to such Indemnified Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by such Indemnified Party the amount of such indemnifiable Losses.
8.5    Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, (except for (i) disputes under Section 1.5 or Section 1.6, which shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.5 and (ii) claims based on breach of any Surviving Covenant), the Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy against Seller, with respect to any and all claims, causes of action, obligations or liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, whether at law or in equity, granted by statute or otherwise, shall be solely pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE 8.
ARTICLE 9

(b)    by the Purchaser, if there has been a material violation or breach by the Company, the Seller Blocker or Seller of any covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement that has prevented, or would prevent, the satisfaction of any condition to the obligations of the Purchaser at the Closing (treating such time as if it were the Closing for purposes of applying this Section 9.1(b)) and such violation or breach has not been waived by the Purchaser or, if capable of cure, cured by the Company, the Seller Blocker or Seller within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by of written notice thereof from the Purchaser; provided, that the Purchaser is not then in material breach of this Agreement;
(c)    by Seller, if there has been a material violation or breach by the Purchaser of any covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement (including with respect to any failure by Purchaser to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms hereof solely as a result of the Debt Financing Sources being unwilling or unable to provide Debt Financing) that has prevented the satisfaction of any condition to the obligations of the Company and Seller at the Closing (treating such time as if it were the Closing for purposes of applying this Section 9.1(c)) and such violation or breach has not been waived by the Seller or, if capable of cure, cured by Purchaser within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by the Purchaser of written notice thereof by Seller; provided, that the Seller is not then in material breach of this Agreement;

58
33067829.14



(d)    by the Purchaser, if the transactions contemplated hereby have not been consummated on or before May 9, 2020 (the “Outside Date”); provided, that, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d) if the Purchaser’s material breach of this Agreement has prevented the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby;
(e)    by Seller, if the transactions contemplated hereby have not been consummated on or before Outside Date; provided, that Seller shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(e) if the Company’s or Seller’s material breach of this Agreement has prevented the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; or
(f)    by either the Purchaser or Seller if any Governmental Authority issues a judgment, order, decree or other ruling enjoining, or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(f) shall have fully complied with its obligations under Section 6.3 or Section 7.3, as applicable; or
(g)    by Seller if (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 2.1 (other than (A) those conditions that by their nature cannot be satisfied other than at the Closing, but subject to such conditions being satisfied if the Closing would have occurred on such date and (B) those conditions that cannot be satisfied as a result of Purchaser’s breach of this Agreement) have been satisfied as of the Closing Date if the Closing would have occurred pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) Seller has irrevocably confirmed in writing to the Purchaser that Seller is ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on such date of notice (such notice a “Closing Failure Notice”) and (iii) the Purchaser fails to consummate the Closing within two (2) Business Days following such date; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement during the two (2) Business Day period following delivery of a Closing Failure Notice.

9.2    Effect of Termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated by either the Purchaser or Seller as provided above, the provisions of this Agreement shall immediately become void and of no further force and effect (other than the second sentence of Section 6.2, this Section 9.2 and ARTICLE 12 hereof which shall survive the termination of this Agreement), and there shall be no Liability on the part of either the Purchaser and the Company and Seller to one another, except for knowing and willful breaches of the provisions of this Agreement prior to the time of such termination; provided, that, without limiting the right of Seller to bring or maintain any Action specific performance, subject to the terms of, Section 12.13(b), in the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c) or Section 9.1(g), the Liability of the Purchaser upon termination of this Agreement will be exclusively governed by Section 9.3. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of the termination of this Agreement by either the Purchaser or Seller as provided above, the Confidentiality Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement for the term thereof. In no event shall Seller be entitled to seek or obtain any recovery or judgment in excess of the Purchaser Termination Fee against the Financing Sources, including

59
33067829.14



for any type of damage relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether at law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.
9.3    Purchaser Termination Fee.
(a)    In the event that (i) Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to, and in compliance with, Section 9.1(c) or Section 9.1(g) or (ii) Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to, and in compliance with, Section 9.1(d), or Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to, and in compliance with, Section 9.1(e), in either case of this clause (ii), at a time when Seller would have been permitted to terminate this Agreement under Section 9.1(g) and assuming all applicable notices were delivered by Seller (a “Qualified Termination”), then the Purchaser shall pay to Seller, or cause to be paid to Seller, a termination fee of $20,000,000 in cash in immediately available funds (the “Purchaser Termination Fee”) as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event, within five (5) Business Days following the receipt by the Purchaser of Seller’s notice of such termination), it being understood that in no event shall the Purchaser be required to pay the Purchaser Termination Fee on more than one occasion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement but subject to the proviso at the end of this Section 9.3(a), in the event a Qualified Termination occurs, receipt of the Purchaser Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 9.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller, and its Affiliates, against the Purchaser and its Affiliates, the Debt Financing Sources and any other actual or prospective financing sources and any arranger, agent or other representative of the foregoing, or any of the respective direct or indirect, former, current or future, Affiliates, general or limited partners, stockholders, managers, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, advisors or assignees of the foregoing (collectively, the “Purchaser Group Members”) for any Loss suffered as a result of any breach of this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter or the or the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter to be consummated, and upon payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee, no Purchaser Group Member shall have any Liability to Seller or any of its Affiliates, or to any of the representatives of any of the foregoing, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Debt Commitment Letter (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Financing), any breach of this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter or any failure of such transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter to be consummated, in each case, whether based on contract (including under the Debt Commitment Letter or any alternatives thereof contemplated hereby, this Agreement or otherwise), tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any Action, by virtue of any applicable Law or otherwise and whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through any Action by or on behalf of a party hereto or another Person or otherwise; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of Seller to bring or maintain any Action for injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to the extent, and solely to the extent, provided in Section 12.13(b).
(b)    Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto further acknowledges that the payment by Purchaser of the Purchaser Termination Fee is not a penalty, but constitutes liquidated damages in a reasonable

60
33067829.14



amount that will compensate the Seller in the circumstances in which such fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.
(c)    If Purchaser fails to pay the Purchaser Termination Fee when due, Purchaser shall also pay to the Seller all of the Seller’s and its Affiliate’s reasonable, out-of-pocket, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with all Actions to collect such Purchaser Termination Fee, solely to the extent such Purchaser Termination Fee is paid, or ordered or otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order with respect thereto, to be paid, to Seller and to enforce the terms of this Section 9.3.
ARTICLE 10    

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS
10.1    Tax Matters.
(a)    Transfer Taxes. The Purchaser will pay 50%, and Seller will pay 50% of any transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration and real property transfer or gains tax, stamp tax, excise tax, stock transfer tax, or other similar Tax imposed on the Seller Blocker or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), and any penalties or interest with respect to the Transfer Taxes. The Seller agree to cooperate with the Purchaser in the filing of any returns with respect to the Transfer Taxes, including by promptly supplying any information in its possession that is reasonably necessary to complete such returns.
(b)    Tax Return Filing. Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, all Tax Returns of the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries for Pre-Closing Tax Periods the due date of which (taking into account valid extensions of time to file) is after the Closing Date but only if not filed by the Seller Blocker and/or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing; provided that, Purchaser shall cause the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries to, for the taxable period that includes the Closing Date, make an election under Revenue Procedure 2011-29, 2011-18 IRB, to treat 70% of any success-based fees that were paid on behalf of the Seller Blocker or any of its Subsidiaries as an amount that did not facilitate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and therefore treat 70% of such costs as deductible. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with the past procedures and practices and accounting methods of the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries to the extent permitted under applicable law. Purchaser shall submit each such income Tax Return to Seller at least twenty (20) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extensions) for Seller’s review and comment and Purchaser shall consider any reasonable comments of Seller in good faith.
(c)    Cooperation. Purchaser, the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries and Seller shall reasonably cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 10.1 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes and the computation and verification of

61
33067829.14



any amounts paid or payable under this Agreement, inclusive (including any supporting work papers, schedules and documents), in each case with respect to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.
(d)    FIRPTA Certificate. At the Closing, the Seller Blocker will deliver to the Purchaser an affidavit certifying that the Seller Blocker is not, and has not been during the shorter of the periods specified in Section 897(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the Code, a “United States real property holding corporation) for purposes of Section 897 and 1445 of the Code.
(e)    Straddle Periods. In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes of the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries based upon or measured by income, withholding, sales, receipts, or payroll which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the Taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Seller Blocker or any of its Subsidiaries holds a beneficial interest will be deemed to terminate at such time). The amount of Taxes other than Taxes of the Seller Blocker or any of its Subsidiaries based upon or measured by net income or gain for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of the Taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. Any deductions, without duplication and which are deductible for income Tax purposes, attributable to (i) Closing Transaction Expenses or Botanist Transaction Expenses, and (ii) payment of Indebtedness with the Closing Date will be allocated to the Taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on the Closing Date to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(f)    Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements, Tax allocation agreements or similar contracts (other than any such contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business the primary purpose of which is unrelated to Taxes) and all powers of attorney with respect to or involving the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries will be terminated prior to the Closing Date and, after the Closing, the Seller Blocker and its Subsidiaries will not be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.
10.2    Further Assurances. From time to time, as and when requested by any party hereto and at such party’s expense, any other party shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions as such requesting party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
10.3    Release. Effective upon the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself, its direct and indirect equityholders, its Affiliates and its and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Release Parties”), hereby irrevocably waives, acquits, remises, discharges and forever releases each of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from any and all Liabilities and obligations to Seller Release Parties of any kind or nature whatsoever, in each case whether absolute or contingent,

62
33067829.14



liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown, matured or unmatured or determined or determinable, and whether arising under any Law, contract, agreement, arrangement, commitment, undertaking or understanding, whether written or oral (other than this Agreement and any of the other agreements executed and delivered in connection herewith, but, in each case, only to the extent set forth herein or therein) or otherwise at law or in equity, and each of Seller Release Parties hereby agrees that it shall not seek to recover any amounts in connection therewith or thereunder from any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties (except as provided for in this Agreement or any of the other agreements executed and delivered in connection herewith, but, in each case, only to the extent set forth herein or therein).
