    California

    November 17, 2016


        


        FOR
VALUE RECEIVED the undersigned Apollo Medical Management, Inc., a California corporation (“Maker”) promises
to pay to the order of Liviu Chindris, M.D. (“Payee”), on or before February
18, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”), the principal sum of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($400,000.00) (the
“Loan”), together with interest prior to the Maturity Date, upon the terms set forth in this Promissory Note (this
“Note”).


 


        1.        
Interest.    Interest shall accrue on any principal balance outstanding hereunder from and including
the date hereof at a rate per annum equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum. All computations of interest and fees under this
Note shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days and calculated for the actual days elapsed.


 


        2.        
Repayment. Maker will repay this Loan as to outstanding principal and accrued interest, in full, on the Maturity Date.
In any and all events, the entire remaining balance of this Note is due and payable on the Maturity Date. Acceptance by Payee
of any payment which is less than payment in full of all amounts due and owing at such time shall not constitute a waiver of Payee’s
right to receive payment in full at such or any other time.


 


        
Each payment of principal and interest due under this Note shall be made by Maker to Payee at its offices. All sums paid on this
Note shall be applied first to interest accrued to the date of payment, and then to principal. Each payment due under this Note
shall be made without set-off or counterclaim in immediately available funds on a Business Day not later than 5:00 p.m. California
local time. All sums received after such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. If any payment of principal or
interest under this Note is payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such installment shall be extended to
the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable during such extension of maturity.


 


        
All sums payable hereunder will be payable with attorneys’ fees and costs of collection and without relief from valuation
and appraisement laws. Maker and all endorsers hereof hereby severally waive presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest,
notice of non-payment and all other notices or demands in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, endorsement
or guaranty of this Note, notice of loans made, credit extended, collateral received or delivered, or other action taken in reliance
hereon and all other demands and notices of any description. Further, Maker and all endorsers hereof hereby severally consent
to extensions of time with respect to sums payable hereunder and any collateral for this indebtedness. Maker consents to any extension
or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect
any security interest in such collateral, to the adding or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to
the acceptance of partial payment thereon, and the settlement, compromise or adjustment of any thereof, all in such manner and
at such time as Payee may deem advisable.


 


        3.        
Prepayment. Maker may prepay all or any part of the principal balance of this Note at any time without premium or penalty.


 


        4.        
Events of Default.


 


        (a)       The
occurrence of any of the following events or conditions shall constitute an event of default hereunder (each, an "Event
of Default"):


 


                   (i)
Maker shall fail to make when due any payments on this Note;


 




     1


     


    

 


                   (ii)
any breach of a representation or warranty of Maker contained in this Note which remains uncured after fifteen (15) business days
from the written notice thereof and which breach shall have a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition of Maker
or (B) the ability of Maker to perform under its obligations this Note;


 


                   (iii)
any default in the material observance or performance by Maker of any covenant or agreement contained in this Note which default
remains uncured after fifteen (15) business days after written notice thereof and which default shall have a material adverse
effect on (A) the financial condition of Maker or (B) the ability of Maker to perform under its obligations this Note;


 


                   (iv)
Maker shall: (A) file a voluntary petition or assignment in bankruptcy or a voluntary petition or assignment or answer seeking
liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of his debts, or any other relief under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978,
as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code"), or under any other act or law pertaining to insolvency or debtor relief, whether
State, Federal, or foreign, now or hereafter existing; (B) enter into any agreement indicating consent to, approval of, or acquiescence
in, any such petition or proceeding; (C) apply for or permit the appointment, by consent or acquiescence, of a receiver, custodian
or trustee of all or a substantial part of his property; (D) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (E) be unable or
shall fail to pay his debts generally as such debts become due; and


 


                   (v)
there occurs (A) a filing or issuance against Maker of an involuntary petition in bankruptcy or seeking liquidation, reorganization,
arrangement, readjustment of its debts or any other relief under the Bankruptcy Code, or under any other act or law pertaining
to insolvency or debtor relief, whether State, Federal or foreign, now or hereafter existing; (B) the involuntary appointment
of a receiver, liquidator, custodian or trustee of Maker or for all or a substantial part of his property; or (C) the issuance
of a warrant of attachment, execution or similar process against all or any substantial part of the property of Maker and such

not have been procured, within sixty (60) days from the date of entry thereof.


 


        (b)
Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs under Section 4(a), then the outstanding principal and interest and any other
customary legal and business collection costs under this Note shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived. If any other Event of Default occurs and
is continuing, the holder, by written notice to the Maker, may declare the outstanding principal and interest under this Note
to be immediately due and payable.


 


        (c)
Remedies.


 


                   (i)
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the holder may avail itself of any legal or equitable rights which the Holder may
have at law or in equity or under this Note, including, but not limited to, the right to accelerate the indebtedness due under
this Note as described in Section 4(b). The remedies of the holder as provided herein shall be distinct and cumulative, and may
be pursued singly, successively or together, at the sole discretion of the holder, and may be exercised as often as occasion therefor
shall arise.


 


                   (ii)
Forbearance by holder to exercise its rights with respect to any failure or breach by Maker shall not constitute a waiver of the
right as to the same or any subsequent failure or breach, and no single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall preclude
other or further exercise of the same or any other right or remedy. The holder shall have no duty to exercise any or all of the
rights and remedies herein provided or contemplated. The acceptance by the holder of any payment hereunder that is less than payment
in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any
of the foregoing rights or remedies at that time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such rights or remedies without the express
written consent of the holder.


 


        (d)
Default Rate. After maturity (by acceleration or otherwise) the unpaid balance (both principal and unpaid pre-maturity
interest) shall bear interest at a default rate equal to the lesser of (a) Fifteen percent (15%) over the rate of interest in
effect immediately prior to maturity or (ii) the then maximum legal rate allowed under the laws of the State of California.

overnight delivery service, or by postage prepaid mailing by certified or registered mail with return receipt requested, to the

to the guaranteed overnight delivery service, or three (3) days after mailing certified or registered mail. However, any failure
to give notice in accordance with the terms of this Section will not invalidate such notice if such notice was in fact in writing
