Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Section 7 of this Agreement, or if not defined herein, the meanings ascribed to such terms in the LLC Agreement (as defined in Section 7 below).

 

WHEREAS, the Company’s Board has adopted a Management Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) designed to provide incentives to such present and future employees, managers, consultants or advisers of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as may be selected in the sole discretion of the Company’s Board (“Participants”) through, among other things, the issuance of the Company’s Management Incentive Units to certain Participants;

 

WHEREAS, Employee is an employee of Employer;

 

WHEREAS, the Plan is intended to qualify under Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 701;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, the Company, on behalf of itself and Employer, desires to issue to Employee, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein [___] Class C-1 Units of the Company, which Class C-1 Units are designated as Management Incentive Units in accordance with Section 3.8 of the LLC Agreement (the “Management Incentive Units”).

 

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 to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Issuance of Management Incentive Units.

 

(a)            Issuance Incentive. Upon the complete execution of this Agreement, the Company will issue the Management Incentive Units to Employee. The Management Incentive Units shall vest in accordance with Section 2 below. The Company will amend and update the Company’s schedule of ownership as attached to the LLC Agreement to reflect the issuance of the Management Incentive Units, and Employee by his/her execution of this Agreement agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement. If Employee is a married individual who resides in a community property state, Employee will deliver to the Company an executed consent and agreement by Employee’s spouse in a form satisfactory to the Company. The initial Participation Threshold applicable to each Management Incentive Unit shall be $[___] per unit, which shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3.8(c) of the LLC Agreement (which includes, without limitation, an increase in the Participation Threshold as a result of Members making additional Capital Contributions to the Company).

 

(b)            83(b) Election. Within 30 days after the issuance by the Company of such Management Incentive Units, Employee will make an effective election with the Internal Revenue Service under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. Employee acknowledges that he or she is responsible for making the proper election with the Internal Revenue Service and is not relying on the Company or Employer to make such an election.

 

 

 

 

(c)            Representations and Warranties. In connection with the receipt of Management Incentive Units, Employee represents and warrants to the Company that:

 

(i)            The Management Incentive Units to be acquired by Employee pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for Employee’s own account and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities laws;

 

(ii)           Employee is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities and Exchange Commission, is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the receipt of the Management Incentive Units;

 

(iii)          Employee is able to bear the economic risk of his/her investment in receipt of the Management Incentive Units for an indefinite period of time because the Management Incentive Units have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available;

 

(iv)          Employee has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the Management Incentive Units;

 

(v)           this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with its terms;

 

(vi)          other than as previously disclosed to the Company, Employee is neither party to, nor bound by, any employment agreement, consulting agreement, noncompetition agreement, nonsolicitation agreement or confidentiality agreement or any other agreement which could impair or interfere with Employee’s obligations hereunder or otherwise to the Company or Employer, or their respective Subsidiaries;

 

(vii)         Employee acknowledges and agrees that there may be additional issuances of equity securities of the Company after the date hereof and the equity interests of Employee may be diluted in connection with any such issuance;

 

(viii)        Employee has had the opportunity to consult Employee’s own tax counsel and financial advisor as to the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Company and Employer have not made any representations regarding such tax consequences or benefits upon which Employee has relied;

 

(ix)          Employee acknowledges that the Management Incentive Units are illiquid and may be illiquid indefinitely; and

 

(x)           Employee is a resident of the State set forth in Employee’s address for notices in Section 8 hereof.

2.             Vesting of the Management Incentive Units.

 

(a)            The Management Incentive Units shall become vested, except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, and further provided that Employee has been providing continuous service as an employee of the Company from the date hereof through the applicable time, as follows:

 

[___]

 

(b)           Subject to Section 4 below and the terms of the LLC Agreement, if Employee’s employment with Employer is terminated for any reason, Employee shall only be entitled to those Management Incentive Units which have vested as of the date of such termination.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, in the event that Employee is terminated for Cause, as determined by the Board in good faith, or violates his/her obligations under Sections 5 or 6 below, all Management Incentive Units, whether vested or unvested, shall, notwithstanding the enforcement or lack thereof of any of Employee’s obligations under Sections 5 or 6 hereof, be forfeited, and Employee will be deemed not to own any Management Incentive Units. For the purposes of this paragraph Cause shall mean (i) Employee’s material breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with the Company; (ii) Executive’s conviction of any felony or any act including moral turpitude, or Executive’s commission of any act of fraud or embezzlement against the Company; (iii) conduct by Executive that brings the Company into public disgrace or disrepute or otherwise publicly injures the integrity, character or reputation of the Company in any material respect as determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion; (iv) Executive’s unauthorized dissemination of information, observations or data concerning the business plans, financial data, referral sources, customers, suppliers, trade secrets, acquisition strategies or other confidential information of the Company; or (v) Executive’s breach of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement or of any restrictive covenants in any other agreement between Employee and the Company.

 

(d)           Upon the occurrence of a Sale of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or equity Transfer and for the benefit of the prospective buyer and its Affiliates, Employee may be required, and Employee hereby agrees, to execute customary noncompetition agreements, nonsolicitation agreements and confidentiality agreements; provided, that (i) the stated terms and conditions of such noncompetition agreements and nonsolicitation agreements shall be on terms that are not more restrictive than as set forth in any existing agreement between Employee, on the one hand, and the Company or its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, and (ii) such agreements shall survive the occurrence of a Sale of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or equity Transfer for a term not to exceed (x) if terminated prior to the occurrence of a Sale of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or equity Transfer, the remaining term of such covenants under an existing agreement and (y) otherwise, one year.

 

(e)            Upon the occurrence of a Sale of the Company 50% of the Time Units which have ‎not yet become vested shall become vested as of the consummation of such Sale of the Company, ‎if, as of the date of such Sale of the Company, Employee is still employed by Employer as of such ‎date.

 

 3 

 

 

(f)            All Management Incentive Units which have become vested hereunder, if any, are collectively referred to herein as the “Vested Management Incentive Units.”

 

3.             Restrictions on Transfer. The holders of Management Incentive Units shall not Transfer any interest in any Management Incentive Units, except pursuant to the provisions of the LLC Agreement.

 

4.             Purchase Option on Employee Units. The provisions of this Section 4 and the LLC Agreement shall apply to all of Employee’s Units in the Company, including the Management Incentive Units, vested and unvested, granted pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Employee Units”).

 

(a)            In the event that Employee’s employment with Employer is terminated, the Company may, within its sole discretion, elect in writing by delivering notice to Employee pursuant to Section 8 hereof, require Employee to sell to the Company and/or its designee the Employee Units set forth in the notice (the “Purchased Units”), which may or may not be all of the Employee Units held by Employee.

 

(b)           The purchase price for the Purchased Units under this Agreement, shall be the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of such Purchased Units as of the date of termination of employment. For the purpose of this Section 4, “Fair Market Value” means, with respect to the Purchased Units, the fair value as of the date of termination determined by the Board in good faith, according to a reasonable and customary methodology approved by the Board, which shall be the final determination of Fair Market Value. For the avoidance of doubt, the Fair Market Value of the Purchased Units will incorporate appropriate discounts for size, control and the fact the Purchased Units are not available on publicly traded markets. The Fair Market Value will also take into account comparable transactions in terms of size and industry (both public and private).

 

(c)            If the purchase option described in Section 4(a) hereof has been exercised, the closing (the “Closing”) of the purchase of any Purchased Units shall occur following the final determination of Fair Market Value as provided in Section 4(b). The Company (or any designee of the Company) shall have the option of making payment of the purchase price in any combination of cash at Closing and/or delivery of a promissory note bearing interest at an annual rate equal to the Base Rate on the date of such purchase and payable in forty-eight (48) equal consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, subject to payment restrictions required by any lender, with the first monthly payment being due on the first day of the calendar month following the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, provided that, in any case, the balance of the purchase price shall be due on or prior to the Sale of the Company. In the event the Company (or its designee) elects to deliver a promissory note at Closing in satisfaction of all or a portion of the purchase price, the Company (or its designee) shall have the option to prepay all or any part of the outstanding principal of any such promissory note at any time without penalty or premium.

 

(d)           At the time of the Closing of any repurchase of the Purchased Units hereunder by the Company, the Employee shall deliver to the Company any assignments or other documents as may be necessary to transfer title to the Purchased Units to the Company, which shall include representations by the Employee that he owns all right, title and interest to the Purchased Units free and clear of any and all liens and encumbrances.

 

 4 

 

 

(e)            In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Section 4 on the one hand and the terms of the LLC Agreement on the other hand, the terms of this Section 4 shall prevail and be given priority, provided, however, that the terms of this Section 4 and the terms of the LLC Agreement are to be taken as mutually explanatory of one another and in the case of ambiguities or discrepancies between such terms, the same shall be explained and interpreted, if possible, in a manner which gives effect to such terms and avoids or minimizes conflicts.

 

5.             Restrictive Covenants.

 

(a)            Confidentiality. During the course of Employee’s affiliation with the Company Group, Employee will learn confidential information on behalf of the Company Group. Employee acknowledges that the Company Group derives considerable economic value from such confidential information being kept secret, and the Company Group has expended significant time, effort and funds to ensure that the confidential information is kept secret. Employee agrees that Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other than in the course of Employee’s assigned duties and for the benefit of the Company Group, either during the period of Employee’s affiliation with the Company Group or at any time thereafter, any confidential business or technical information, trade secrets, or other nonpublic, proprietary or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company Group, any of its subsidiaries, affiliated companies or businesses, or received from third parties subject to a duty on the Company Group’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes, in each case which shall have been obtained by Employee during Employee’s affiliation with the Company Group. The foregoing shall not apply to information that (i) was known to the public prior to its disclosure to Employee; (ii) becomes generally known to the public subsequent to disclosure to Employee through no wrongful act of Employee or any representative of Employee; or (iii) Employee is required to disclose by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that Employee provides the Company Group with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and cooperates with the Company Group at the Company Group’s expense in seeking any protective order or other appropriate protection of such information).

 

(b)           Noncompetition. Employee acknowledges that during the course of Employee’s affiliation with the Company Group (i) Employee performs services of a unique nature for the Company Group that are irreplaceable, and that Employee’s performance of such services to a competing business will result in irreparable harm to the Company Group, (ii) Employee has had and will continue to have access to trade secrets and other confidential information of the Company Group, which, if disclosed, would unfairly and inappropriately assist in competition against the Company Group, (iii) in the course of Employee’s employment or affiliation by a competitor, Employee would inevitably use or disclose such trade secrets and confidential information, (iv) the Company Group has substantial relationships with their customers, strategic partners, the health insurance providers with whom they enter into agreements, patients and patient referral sources (including, but not limited to any health care professional, consultant and any similar type referral sources, collectively, the “Referral Sources”) and Employee has had and will continue to have access to these customers and Referral Sources, (v) Employee will receive specialized training from the Company Group, and (vi) Employee is acquiring an equity interest in the Company in connection with his/her entering into this Agreement. Accordingly, during Employee’s employment with the Company Group and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Employee agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, and whether or not for compensation) or render services to any Competitive Opportunity in any county in the United States that the Company Group where the Company is operating, or has a pending letter of intent or other similar agreement to commence operations. A “Competitive Opportunity” means any business in which the primary purpose is to engage in primary care medicine or the creation and maintenance of an integrated healthcare network of providers which ‎receives or is intended to receive a substantial portion (i.e., in excess of 25%) of its revenue ‎through at-risk Medicare Advantage reimbursements or percentage of premium payments.

 

 5 

 

 

(c)            Nonsolicitation. During Employee’s employment with the Company Group and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Employee agrees that Employee shall not, except in the furtherance of Employee’s duties to the Company Group, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, (i) solicit, aid or induce any individual or entity that is, or was during the twenty-four (24) month period immediately prior to the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company Group for any reason, a customer, strategic partner, health insurance provider, patient or Referral Source of the Company Group to purchase goods or services then sold by the Company Group from another person, firm, corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other persons or entity in identifying or soliciting any such customer, strategic partner, health insurance provider, patient or Referral Source; (ii) solicit, aid or induce any employee, representative or agent of the Company Group to leave such employment or retention or to accept employment with or render services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity unaffiliated with the Company Group or hire or retain any such employee, representative or agent, or take any action to materially assist or aid any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in identifying, hiring or soliciting any such employee, representative or agent; (iii) interfere, or aid or induce any other person or entity in interfering with the relationship between the Company Group and any of its payors, joint venturers, licensors or contractors with whom the Company Group has a contract relating to its at-risk Medicare Advantage business; or (iv) attempt to do any of the foregoing either for Employee’s own purposes or for any third party, including without limitation, by engaging in any of the foregoing with customers, strategic partners, health insurance providers and/or Referral Sources that have referred to the Company Group within the twenty-four (24) month period prior to the termination of Employee’s affiliation with the Company Group, or who have otherwise been a part of an active business development effort such as hosting them for a site visit, conference, dinner or any related activity.

 

(d)            Reasonableness of Covenants. Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 5 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) are appropriate for the consideration provided, are an integral part of this Agreement and but for the Restrictive Covenants, Employer and the Company would not enter into this Agreement and issue the Management Incentive Units to Employee. Employee further agrees that: (i) the Restrictive Covenants impose no undue hardship on Employee and do not preclude Employee from earning a livelihood, nor do they unreasonably impose limitations on Employee's ability to earn a living; and (ii) the terms of the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and narrowly tailored to protect the Company Group's protectable interests in its confidential information and other protectable business relationships, and do not impose any restraint that is greater than is required for the protection of the interests of the Company Group. Employee has carefully read this Agreement and consulted with legal counsel of Employee's choosing regarding its contents, and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Employee by this Agreement.

(e)            Enforcement. Employee agrees and acknowledges that:

 

(i)            If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 5, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that they shall substitute the maximum duration or scope that is reasonable under such circumstances for the stated duration or scope, and that they shall revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum duration or scope permitted by law.

 

(ii)           Because Employee has access to confidential information and customer and other relationships, the parties hereto agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement, including this Section 5. Therefore, Employee agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, including this Section 5, the Company and Employer, their respective Subsidiaries and/or their respective successors shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief without posting a bond or other security.

 

(f)             Survival of Provisions. The obligations contained in Sections 5 and 6 hereof shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment or affiliation with the Company Group and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.

 

6.             Cooperation. Upon the receipt of reasonable notice from the Company (including outside counsel of the Company), Employee agrees that while an employee or affiliated with the Company Group in any capacity and thereafter, Employee will respond and provide information with regard to matters in which Employee has knowledge as a result of his/her involvement with the Company Group, and will provide reasonable assistance to the Company Group in defense of any claims that may be made against the Company Group, and will assist the Company Group in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by the Company Group, to the extent that such claims may relate to the period of Employee’s affiliation with the Company Group (collectively, “Claims”). Employee agrees to promptly inform the Company if Employee becomes aware of any lawsuits involving Claims that may be filed or threatened against the Company or its Affiliates.
