AMERICAN RENAL HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2011

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

NOTE AMERGER AND PRESENTATION

On March 22, 2010, American Renal Holdings Inc. (ARH or the Company) entered into a Contribution and Merger Agreement (the Merger Agreement) with American Renal
Associates Holdings, Inc. (formerly C.P. Atlas Holdings, Inc., the Parent), American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC (formerly C.P. Atlas Intermediate Holdings, LLC), C.P. Atlas Acquisition Corp., certain of ARHs
stockholders party thereto and Pamlico Capital I, LLC (formerly known as Wachovia Capital Partners GP I, LLC), pursuant to which C.P. Atlas Acquisition Corp. merged with and into ARH (the Merger) and, after which, ARH became the
surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC, which is in turn a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent.

American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC is an entity formed in the Merger and prior to the Merger had no assets or liabilities other than the shares of CP Atlas Acquisition Corp. and its rights
and obligations under and in connection with the Merger Agreement. As a result of the Merger, all of ARHs issued and outstanding capital stock became owned by American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC which is American Renal Holdings
Intermediate Company, LLCs only asset. As such, the consolidated financial statements of American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC are identical to the consolidated financial statements of ARH.

The parties agreed to consummate the Merger, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, for an aggregate
purchase price of $415 million, subject to adjustments for working capital, indebtedness, certain specified liabilities and certain tax savings. The aggregate purchase price of approximately $415 million for the Merger, plus related fees and
expenses, was funded by the equity investment by Centerbridge Capital Partners, L.P. and its affiliates (Centerbridge) as well as from certain members of management and the net proceeds from the offering of $250.0 million of Senior
Secured Notes (the Senior Secured Notes) due 2018 which bear interest at 8.375%. The Merger and the financing transaction described above are collectively referred to herein as the Transactions. See Note D for a summary of
the terms of the Senior Secured Notes.

A reconciliation of the base price to the acquisition-date fair value of consideration
is as follows:



|                                             |  |   |         |  
|-------------------------------------------- |  | - | ------- | -
|Base Price                                   |  | $ | 415,000 |  
|Adjustment for cash and working capital      |  |   | 11,233  |  
|Acquisition-related deferred consideration   |  |   | 17,015  |  
|Post-combination service compensation        |  |   | (4,035  | )
|                                             |  |   |         |  
|Acquisition-date fair value of consideration |  | $ | 439,213 |  
|                                             |  |   |         |  

The Transactions were consummated on May 7, 2010. Although ARH continued as the surviving corporation
and same legal entity after the Merger, the accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented for two periods: predecessor and successor, which relate to the periods preceding the Merger and the period succeeding the Merger, respectively.
The Merger resulted in a new basis of accounting beginning on May 8, 2010 and the financial reporting periods are presented as follows:



| |  |  | The three month period ended March 31, 2011 reflects the successor period, reflecting the Merger of ARH and Parent.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The three month period ended March 31, 2010 reflects the predecessor period. The consolidated financial statements for this predecessor period
have been prepared using the historical basis of accounting for the Company. As a result of the Merger and the associated acquisition accounting, the consolidated financial statements of the successor are not comparable to periods preceding the
Merger.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total fees and expenses related to the Transactions aggregated approximately $28.5 million
consisting of $23.2 million of acquisition costs and $5.3 million of deferred financing costs. Of the $23.2 million, $7.4 million was recognized in the predecessor period ($1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010) and $15.8
million was recognized in the successor period of May 8, 2010 through December 31, 2010.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)

March 31, 2011

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)



The Merger has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, whereby
the purchase price was allocated to the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests based on the estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. The Company has evaluated and allocated the purchase price as the appraisal associated with the
valuation of certain assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests is complete.

The Company calculated the fair value of
its noncontrolling interests not subject to put provisions at the acquisition date using a discounted cash flow approach for interest based on income forecasts for all clinics. The Company utilized a weighted average cost of capital of 13.25%. The
discounted cash flow for each interest was then reduced by discounts for a lack of control and marketability. The lack of control discount applied was estimated at 10% as determined through an analysis of the premiums for control paid in
transactions of similar companies. A discount for lack of marketability of 9% was estimated utilizing the Black-Scholes model. The application of this model was based on the following assumptions: a maturity period of 1 year, a volatility of 22.5%
based on this maturity period for comparable companies, and a risk free rate of 0.38%, which also corresponds with the maturity period.

A reconciliation of the final closing balance sheet of the Predecessor entity (the Predecessor) prior to the effect of the Transactions, including other simultaneous transactions, such as the
repayment of certain indebtedness of the Predecessor and the capital contribution made by the Parent, with the beginning consolidated balance sheet of the Successor entity (the Successor) (after the application of the acquisition method
of accounting) is presented below:

Goodwill in the predecessor entity as of May 7, 2010 was $33,157 of which $8,813 represented payments
made in advance of the Merger to finance a portion of the Mergers consideration.

As a result of the Merger, the Company
has recorded approximately $501.1 million of goodwill. The components of this goodwill are primarily patient relationships and our assembled work force. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Fair Value of Consideration Transferred

At the closing, the Parent made a cash payment to the former shareholders of the Company equal to the sum of the initial purchase price of $217.9 million plus $1.8 million based on an estimated working
capital adjustment and other adjustments in accordance with the Merger Agreement. The final working capital adjustment was settled during the third quarter of fiscal 2010 for an additional payment of $379,000. In addition, at the close, Parent made
a cash payment to an escrow agent for $30.0 million. Based on the conditions of the escrow release, the Company has determined the release of the escrow amount is probable. In July 2010, approximately $2.5 million of this escrow was released and in
March 2011 approximately $26.0 million of this escrow was released.

Of the $217.9 million, approximately $45.3 million was
paid to the Companys holders of stock options. In connection with the Merger, vesting was accelerated for all then outstanding stock options. As a result of this acceleration, the Company determined that approximately $4.1 million of the $45.3
million payment was attributable to post-combination services and, as such, recorded as an expense in the Successor income statement.

The total acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred was estimated at $439.2 million as follows:



|                                                                 |  |   |         | 
|---------------------------------------------------------------- |  | - | ------- | 
|Cash consideration to debtholders                                |  | $ | 63,600  | 
|Cash consideration to Series X redeemable preferred stockholders |  |   | 68,088  | 
|Cash consideration to stockholders                               |  |   | 249,716 | 
|Acquisition-related deferred consideration                       |  |   | 17,015  | 
|Equity consideration to stockholders                             |  |   | 24,089  | 
|Assumed liabilities                                              |  |   | 16,705  | 
|                                                                 |  |   |         | 
|Acquisition-date fair value of consideration                     |  | $ | 439,213 | 
|                                                                 |  |   |         | 

The Companys stockholders are additionally entitled to certain future tax benefits realized as a
result of the Merger. The Company has estimated this amount at $17.0 million for which a liability to the sellers was recognized. As of March 31, 2011, $11.9 million of this liability has been paid while the remainder is expected to be paid in
2011. Any change in the fair value of the acquisition-related consideration subsequent to the acquisition date, including changes from events after the acquisition date will be recognized in earnings in the period the estimated fair value changes.

In connection with the Merger, Parent assumed $16.7 million of liabilities which consisted of $10.1 million of term
loans at the Companys clinics and $6.6 million of Merger-related transaction expenses which Parent settled on behalf of the Company.

consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reports and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared under generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such regulations. However, the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements
for the periods shown. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, including Note B which discusses principles of consolidation and summary of
significant accounting policies. These statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities
and noncontrolling interests and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates include revenue
recognition (contractual allowances) and the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of goodwill and intangibles, fair value of noncontrolling interests, provision for income taxes, stock-based compensation and contingencies. Actual results could
differ from these estimates and actual results are not necessarily indicative of results for the remainder of 2011 or future periods thereafter. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date these unaudited consolidated financial
statements were issued and has included all necessary disclosures.

Segment Information

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for
evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Companys chief decision-maker is a combination of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Operating Officer. The Company views its operations and manages its business as one reportable business segment, theownership and operation of dialysis clinics, all of which are located in the United States.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2011, the Company adopted Accounting Standard Updates (ASU) 2010-24, Health Care Entities (Topic 954): Presentation of Insurance Claims and Related
Insurance Recoveries, which clarifies that a health care entity should not net insurance recoveries against a related claim liability. The adoption had no impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Effective January 1, 2011, we adopted ASU 2010-23, Health Care Entities (Topic 954): Measuring Charity Care
for Disclosure, which prescribes a specific measurement basis of charity care for disclosure. The adoption had no impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE BFAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Certain of the Companys assets and noncontrolling interests are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Financial instruments with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market
exchanges.

Level 2: Financial instruments determined using prices for recently traded
financial instruments with similar underlying terms, as well as directly or indirectly observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3: Financial instruments not actively traded on a market exchange. This category includes
situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs or valuation techniques.

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)



The asset or liability fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is
based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following is a description for the valuation methodologies used for noncontrolling interests measured at fair value. There were no changes in the
methodologies used at March 31, 2011.

The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for
cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company estimates the fair value of the Senior Secured Notes at $263,750 as of March 31, 2011.

Noncontrolling interests subject to put provisionsSee Note C for a discussion of the Companys
methodology for estimating fair value of noncontrolling interest subject to put provisions.

NOTE CNONCONTROLLING INTERESTS SUBJECT TO PUT PROVISIONS

The Company has potential obligations to purchase the noncontrolling interests held by third parties in several of its consolidated
subsidiaries. These obligations are in the form of put provisions and are exercisable at the third-party owners discretion within specified periods as outlined in each specific put provision. If these put provisions were exercised, the Company
would be required to purchase the third-party owners noncontrolling interests at the appraised fair value. In connection with the Transactions, the obligations were recorded based on an appraisal of estimated fair values as of the date of the
acquisition. The appraisal estimated the fair value of the noncontrolling interests subject to these put provisions using a discounted cash flow approach and other factors. The estimated fair values of the noncontrolling interests subject to these
put provisions can also fluctuate. The amount for which noncontrolling interests may ultimately be settled could vary significantly from our current estimates depending upon market conditions including potential purchasers access to the credit
and capital markets, which can impact the level of competition for dialysis and non-dialysis related businesses, the economic performance of these businesses and the restricted marketability of the third-party owners noncontrolling interests.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Companys potential obligations under these put provisions
totaled approximately $35,489 and $35,827, respectively. Additionally, the Company has certain put agreements which are exercisable upon the occurrence of specific events, including third-party members death, disability, bankruptcy,
retirement, or if third-party members are dissolved. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Companys potential additional obligations under these put provisions were approximately $8,501 and $8,409, respectively. The
Companys potential obligations for all of these put provisions are included in noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Senior Secured Notes

In connection with the Transactions, the Company issued $250.0 million of Senior Secured Notes (the Notes) at an offering price of 99.28%. The Notes are secured, subject to certain exceptions,
by (i) all of the Companys capital stock and (ii) substantially all of the assets of our wholly owned subsidiary guarantors. The Notes are guaranteed by the Companys direct parent, C. P. Atlas Intermediate Holdings, LLC and all
of our existing and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The Notes mature on May 15, 2018. Interest is payable semi-annually at 8.375% per annum, commencing November 15, 2010.

On or after May 15, 2015, the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, subject to certain notice periods, at a price equal to
100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. From May 15, 2013 to May 14, 2015, the Company may redeem the Notes at prices ranging from 102.094% to 104.188% of the aggregate principal balance of the
Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to May 15, 2013, the Company has the option to redeem during each 12-month period commencing on the issue date of May 7, 2010 up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes at 103% of
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. In addition, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the Notes before May 15, 2013, with the net cash proceeds from certain equity
offerings at 108.375% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may also redeem some or all of the Notes before May 15, 2013 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount
thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium. Upon a change in control, the Company must offer to purchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest to the
purchase date.

Credit Facility

In connection with the Transactions, the Company entered into a $25.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (the Credit Facility). The Credit Facility expires on May 7, 2015. Borrowings
under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Companys option, either (a) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) the prime rate in effect on such day, (2) the federal funds
effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the Eurodollar rate applicable for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% or

(b) the LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin. The initial applicable margin for borrowings under the Credit Facility is 3.50% with respect to alternate base rate borrowings and 4.50% with
respect to LIBOR borrowings. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Credit Facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee, initially 0.75% per annum, in respect of the unutilized revolving credit
commitments thereunder. The Company is subject to leverage and fixed charge financial covenants under the Credit Facility as set forth below.

We have agreed that we will not permit the Consolidated Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (both as defined in the agreement) Ratio for any 12 month period (last four fiscal quarters) ending during a period
set forth below to be greater than the ratio set forth below opposite such period:

NOTE
EINCOME TAXES

The income tax expense included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income principally
relates to the Companys proportionate share of the pre-tax income of its majority-owned subsidiaries. The Predecessors effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was 27.0% which differed from the statutory
federal rate of 35% primarily due to non-deductible transaction costs and interest expense, including original issue discount related to the Series X Preferred Stock. The Successors effective income tax rate for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 was 4.9%. This rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% principally due to the portion of pre-tax income that is allocable to noncontrolling interests in our majority-owned subsidiaries which are pass-through entities
for income tax purposes.

NOTE FSTOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Predecessor issued stock options and other stock awards to executive management and employees under its stock-based compensation
plans. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recognized $0.2 million of stock-based compensation. A related tax benefit of $0.1 million was recognized for this period.

In connection with the Merger, all unvested options were vested and all outstanding stock options were either converted into the right to
receive the difference between $9.50 and the exercise price of the stock option or were rolled-over into fully vested options in the Successor (Rollover Options). As a result, the Company paid approximately $45.3 million related to the
conversion of stock options of which $3.7 million was recorded as stock-based compensation expense during the period from May 8, 2010 to June 30, 2010 and the remaining $41.6 million was accounted for as part of purchase price of the
Transaction.

In March 2011, the Parent declared and paid a dividend equal to $14.49 per share to holders of the Parents
common stock. In connection with the dividend, the Companys Parent also made a dividend equivalent payment of approximately $2.5 million to holders of Rollover Options which was recorded as an expense in the Companys statement of income.
Additionally, in connection with the dividend, the exercise prices of the outstanding Rollover Options were also adjusted. The adjustment was made at the election of the Board of Directors and was not required to be made under the applicable
predecessor option plan provisions. As such, the adjustment was accounted for as a modification of the stock option which resulted in stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.3 million.

In May 2010, the Parent adopted the C.P. Atlas Holdings, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2010 Plan) under which 1,574,782 shares of
the Parents common stock were reserved for issuance to the Companys employees, directors and consultants. Options granted under the 2010 Plan must be nonstatutory stock options. Stock appreciation rights may also be granted under the
2010 Plan. The Board of Directors determines the period over which options become exercisable; however, such awards generally require that certain performance conditions and service conditions be met before the awards would vest. During the three
months ended March 31, 2011, the Companys Parent granted 32,555 options under the 2010 Plan to the Companys employees at an exercise price of $6.51 per share, all of which were outstanding as of March 31, 2011 and none of which
were vested as of March 31, 2011. Each option vests as follows: 33% over a five year period, dependent upon continued employment with the Company, and 67% upon a liquidity event resulting in a specified return to shareholders. The Company
records stock-based compensation expense only related to the portion of each option attributable to the 33% service period. Accordingly, the recognition of stock-based compensation attributable to the remaining 67% is deferred until the consummation
of a liquidity event.

In connection with the March 2011 dividend, the exercise prices of the outstanding 2010 Plan options
were also adjusted as required under the 2010 Plan. No stock-based compensation was required to be recognized in connection with the modification of these options.

In January 2011, the Parent adopted the C.P. Atlas Holdings, Inc. 2011 Stock Option Plan for Nonemployee Directors (the 2011 Directors Plan) under which 100,000 shares of the Parents common
stock were reserved for issuance to the Companys directors and consultants. Options granted under the 2011 Directors Plan must be nonstatutory stock options. Stock appreciation rights may also be granted under the 2011 Plan. The Board of
Directors determines the period over which options become exercisable; however, such awards generally require that certain performance conditions and service conditions be met before the awards would vest. During the three months ended
March 31, 2011, the Companys Parent granted 16,000 options under the 2011 Directors Plan to members of the Companys Board of Directors at an exercise price of $6.51 per share, all of which were outstanding as of March 31,
2011 and none of which were vested as of March 31, 2011. Each option vests as follows: 33% over a five year period, dependent upon continued employment with the Company, and 67% upon a liquidity event resulting in a specified return to
shareholders. The Company records stock-based compensation expense only related to the portion of each option attributable to the 33% service period. Accordingly, the recognition of stock-based compensation attributable to the remaining 67% is
deferred until the consummation of a liquidity event.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded
$0.2 million in stock-based compensation expense ($0.1 million net of taxes) related to the 2010 Plan and the 2011 Directors Plan. Unrecognized compensation related to time-based options amounted to approximately $3.3 million at March 31,
2011.

The weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair values of 2010 Plan and the
2011 Directors Plan stock options granted in 2011 are as follows:



|                                                                    |  |   |           |  
|------------------------------------------------------------------- |  | - | --------- | -
|Risk-free interest rates                                            |  |   | 2.8       | %
|Expected dividend yield                                             |  |   | 0         | %
|Expected term of option                                             |  |   | 6.5 years |  
|Expected volatility                                                 |  |   | 39        | %
|Weighted-average grant date fair value per share of options granted |  | $ | 2.23      |  

Expected volatility
is based on a selected group of comparable companies volatility over the expected term. Expected life of an option is based on the short-cut method as prescribed by SEC SAB No. 110 as the Company has never granted
performance-based awards and, as such, the Company does not have any historical experience from which to estimate an expected life. The risk-free interest rate represents the implied yields available from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve.
Expected dividend yield is 0% because the Company has not paid dividends in the past, and currently has no known intention to do so in the future. Compensation expense is recognized net of forfeitures.

NOTE GRELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has lease agreements for dialysis clinics with noncontrolling interest members or entities under the control of noncontrolling interest members. The amount of rent expense under these lease
arrangements was approximately $0.6 million for both the predecessor period for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and for the successor period for the three months ended March 31, 2011. In addition, in 2008, the Company sub-leased
space at one of its dialysis clinics to the noncontrolling interest member. Rent income under this sub-lease arrangement, which extends to 2023, was approximately $0.1 million for both the predecessor period for the three months ended March 31,
2010 and for the successor period for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Upon consummation of the Merger, the
Company entered into a management services agreement with Centerbridge. Under this management services agreement, Centerbridge agreed to provide to the Company certain investment banking, management, consulting, and financing planning services on an
ongoing basis. In consideration for these services, the Company will pay Centerbridge, commencing May 7, 2010, an annual advisory services fee (payable quarterly) for each fiscal year from and including fiscal year 2010 of the greater of
(i) an amount equal to the greater of (x) $550,000 and (y) the advisory services fee of the previous fiscal year or (ii) an amount equal to 1.25% of EBITDA, minus a personnel expense deduction, if applicable. During the three
months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded $0.2 million of expense related to this agreement.

In March 2011, the
Parent issued $135.0 million of aggregate Senior Pay-In-Kind Toggle Notes (the PIK Notes) in a private placement. The PIK Notes are due in March 2016 and bear interest at a rate of 9.75% if paid in cash or 10.50% if paid-in-kind. The net proceeds of
the PIK Notes were used to pay a dividend to the equity holders of American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. In addition, the Company made a dividend equivalent payment to certain option holders and modified all outstanding stock options. (See Note F
for further information). The issuance of the PIK Notes did not change any guarantees or obligations of the Company as disclosed herein related to the Notes or the Credit Facility. The Company does not guarantee repayment of the PIK Notes nor do any
of its assets serve as collateral for the PIK Notes.

NOTE HCOMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Healthcare provider revenues may be subject to adjustment as a result of (i) examination by government agencies or contractors, for
which the resolution of any matters raised may take extended periods of time to finalize; (ii) differing interpretations of government regulations by different fiscal intermediaries or regulatory authorities; (iii) differing opinions
regarding a patients medical diagnosis or the medical necessity of service provided; (iv) retroactive applications or interpretations of governmental requirements; and (v) claims for refund from private payors, including as the
result of government actions. Management believes it has recorded adequate provisions to consider potential revenue adjustments.

Professional Liability Coverage

The Company maintains professional
liability insurance coverage on a claims-made basis. Under this type of policy, claims based on occurrences during its term, but reported subsequently, will be uninsured should the policy not be renewed or replaced with

other coverage. Management expects to be able to obtain renewal or other coverage in future periods, and has accrued the estimated cost associated with coverage of past occurrences reported in
subsequent periods.

Litigation

The Company is a defendant in various legal actions in the normal course of business. In the opinion of the Companys management, based in part on the advice of outside counsel, the resolution of
these matters will not have a material effect on the Companys financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Regulatory

The healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state, and local governments. Recently, government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations
concerning possible violations by healthcare providers of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations, which could result in the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed.
Compliance with such laws and regulations are subject to government review and interpretations, as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

Forward-looking statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains
statements that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements that do not concern historical facts are forward-looking statements and include, among other things, statements about our expectations,
beliefs, intentions and/or strategies for the future. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding our future operations, financial condition and prospects, expectations for treatment growth rates, revenue per treatment, expense
growth, levels of the provision for uncollectible accounts receivable, operating income, cash flow, operating cash flow, estimated tax rates, capital expenditures, the development of new centers and center acquisitions, government and commercial
payment rates, revenue estimating risk and the impact of our related level of indebtedness on our financial performance, including earnings per share. These statements involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause
our actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, risks resulting from the regulatory environment in which we operate, economic and market conditions, competitive
activities, other business conditions, accounting estimates, the variability of our cash flows, the concentration of profits generated from commercial payor plans, continued downward pressure on average realized payment rates from commercial payors,
which may result in the loss of revenue or patients, a reduction in the number of patients under higher-paying commercial plans, a reduction in government payment rates or changes to the structure of payments under the Medicare ESRD program or other
government-based programs, changes in pharmaceutical or anemia management practice patterns, payment policies, or pharmaceutical pricing, our ability to maintain contracts with physician medical directors, legal compliance risks, including our
continued compliance with complex government regulations, continued increased competition from large and medium sized dialysis providers that compete directly with us, our ability to complete any acquisitions, mergers or dispositions that we might
be considering or announce, or integrate and successfully operate any business we may acquire and the risk factors set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We base our forward-looking statements on information currently available to us, and
we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of changes in underlying factors, new information, future events or otherwise.

The following should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Merger and Presentation

On March 22, 2010, ARH entered into the
Merger Agreement with American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. (formerly C.P. Atlas Holdings, Inc. (the Parent)), American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC (formerly C.P. Atlas Intermediate Holdings, LLC), C.P. Atlas Acquisition
Corp., certain of ARHs stockholders party thereto and the Sellers Representative pursuant to which ARH agreed that C.P. Atlas Acquisition Corp. merged with and into ARH (the Merger) and, after which, ARH became the surviving
entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of American Renal Holdings Intermediate Company, LLC, which is in turn a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent. The parties agreed to consummate the Merger, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the
Merger Agreement, for an aggregate purchase price of $415 million, subject to adjustments, including, without limitation, for working capital, indebtedness, certain specified liabilities and certain tax savings. ARH agreed that $2.5 million of the
purchase price was to be placed into a third-party escrow account as security for working capital adjustments and that $27.5 million of the purchase price was to be placed into a third-party escrow account as security for indemnification claims.

The aggregate purchase price of approximately $415 million for the Merger, plus related fees and expenses, was funded by the
equity investment by Centerbridge as well as from certain members of management and the net proceeds from the offering of $250.0 million of Senior Secured Notes (the Senior Secured Notes) due 2018 which bear interest at 8.375%. The
Merger and the financing transaction described above are collectively referred to herein as the Transactions.

The
Transactions were consummated on May 7, 2010. Although ARH continued as the surviving corporation and same legal entity after the merger, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations and cash flows are presented for two
periods: predecessor and successor, which relate to the periods preceding the Merger and the period succeeding the Merger, respectively. The Merger resulted in a new basis of accounting beginning on May 8, 2010. The Merger was accounted for
under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests in the Merger were recorded at fair value. As a result of
the Merger and the associated acquisition accounting, the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Successor are not comparable to periods preceding the Merger.

Executive Overview

We are a national provider of kidney dialysis services
for patients suffering from chronic kidney failure, also known as end stage renal disease, or ESRD. As of March 31, 2011, we owned and operated 97 dialysis clinics treating more than 6,800 patients in 18 states and the District of Columbia. Our
operating model is based on shared ownership of our facilities with physicians, known as nephrologists, who specialize in kidney-related diseases in the local market served by the clinic. Each clinic is maintained as a

##### Table of Contents

separate joint venture in which we own a controlling interest and our local nephrologist partners own noncontrolling interests, although during the development stages or under certain
circumstances we may temporarily own up to 100% of the interests of a clinic. The results of operations for all of clinics are currently included in our consolidated financial statements.

We endeavor to provide our nephrologist partners with comprehensive management and operational tools in order to enable them (and other
referring physicians) to focus on providing quality care to patients.

We derive our revenues from providing both outpatient
and inpatient dialysis treatments as well as from ancillary services such as administering dialysis-related pharmaceuticals, but not including services that we outsource to third-party vendors such as lab services. The sources of these revenues are
principally government-based programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Medicare-certified HMO plans as well as commercial insurance plans.

The Competitive Strength of Our JV Model

We operate our clinics exclusively through our JV model, in which we share the ownership and operational responsibility of our dialysis clinics with physicians known as nephrologists who specialize in
kidney-related diseases. In each of our JVs, we own a controlling interest in the clinic and our nephrologist partners own noncontrolling interests. We believe that our exclusive focus on a JV model makes us well-positioned to increase our market
share by attracting nephrologists who are not only interested in our service platform but also want greater clinical autonomy and a potential return on capital investment associated with ownership of a noncontrolling interest in a dialysis clinic.
We believe our JV model best aligns our interests with those of our nephrologist partners and their patients. By owning a portion of the clinics where their patients are treated, our nephrologist partners have a vested stake in the quality,
reputation and performance of the clinics. We believe that this enhances patient and staff satisfaction and retention, clinical outcomes, patient growth, and operational and financial performance.

Clinic Development

We
have experienced significant growth since opening our first clinic in December 2000. Since that date, we have developed 73 new clinics, commonly referred to as de novo clinics. The following chart shows the number of de novo and acquired clinics
over the periods indicated:

Selective recruitment of new nephrologist partners who have an established practice is critical in achieving our growth objectives. We
also believe we enjoy a strong and growing reputation among the nephrologist community, ensuring that nephrologists who contemplate a migration to the shared-ownership model strongly consider us.

We also believe that the return earned by our nephrologist partners on the clinic investment can drive organic growth by enabling our
nephrologist partners to reinvest in their practices, including by adding new nephrologists, which provides us with the opportunity to expand existing clinics, develop new clinics or acquire competing clinics in the same market.

We will continue to incur start-up losses associated with the opening of de novo clinics. It has been our experience that newly
established dialysis centers, although contributing to increased revenues, have adversely affected our results of operations in the short term due to start-up fixed operating expenses and a smaller patient base. We consider new dialysis centers to
be start-up centers through their initial 12 months of operations, or when they achieve consistent profitability, whichever is sooner.

Effect of the Transactions

In connection with the Transactions we incurred
significant additional indebtedness, including $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes and $25.0 million of borrowing availability under our Credit Facility (the New Revolving Credit Facility). As of
March 31, 2011, we had $256.6 million aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding including approximately $6.6 million of third-party debt owed by our clinic subsidiaries. We estimate this additional indebtedness will

result in annualized interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs and discounts, of approximately $23.0 million which is significantly higher than our historical annual
interest expense and which may result in lower net income in future periods.

The following discussion and analysis of our
historical financial condition and results of operations covers periods prior to and after the consummation of the Transactions. After the Transactions, we are highly leveraged. Significant additional liquidity requirements, resulting primarily from
increased interest expense, and other factors related to the Transactions, such as increased amortization of identified intangible assets as a result of the application of acquisition accounting will continue to significantly affect our financial
condition, results of operations and liquidity going forward.

Results of Operations

The following table presents our operating results for the periods indicated, expressed both in dollars and as a percentage of net
operating revenues. Historical results for the successor period during the three months ended March 31, 2011 are compared and discussed in relation to the historical predecessor results during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Net Operating Revenues

Net operating revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $84.7 million, an increase of 18.2% from $71.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in net operating revenues was primarily due to an increase of approximately 19.8% in the number of dialysis treatments, but was partially offset by a 1.0% decrease in the average revenue per
treatment. The increase in treatments resulted principally from non-acquired treatment growth from existing clinics and de novo clinics. Net operating revenues per treatment for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $348, compared with
$353 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in revenues per treatment was primarily due to a change in our commercial payor mix resulting from the relatively high rates of unemployment in the current economic climate. Our net
operating revenues are driven by the number of treatments performed and our average revenues per treatment. The following table summarizes our net operating revenues and net operating revenues per treatment for each of the periods indicated:

The number of
treatments that we performed during the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased by approximately 19.8% over the number of treatments that we performed during the three months ended March 31, 2010. This treatment growth has been driven
by increasing the patient base at our existing clinics, adding new patients through the opening of de novo clinics and the acquisition of existing dialysis clinics in which we acquired a controlling interest. The following table summarizes the
sources of our treatment growth for the period indicated:

Our net operating revenues per treatment are principally driven by our mix of commercial and government (principally Medicare and
Medicaid) payor patients, the mix and amount of physician-prescribed pharmaceuticals, and commercial and government payment rates. We are generally paid more for services provided to patients covered by commercial healthcare plans than we are for
patients covered by Medicare or Medicaid. Patients covered by employer group health plans transition to Medicare coverage after a maximum of 33 months. Medicare payment rates are generally insufficient to cover our total operating expenses allocable
to providing dialysis treatments for Medicare patients, although in some circumstances they are sufficient to cover their patient care costs. As a result, our ability to generate operating earnings is substantially dependent on revenues derived from
commercial payors, some of which pay negotiated payment rates and others of which pay based on our usual and customary fee schedule. Additionally, as a patient transitions from commercial coverage to Medicare coverage, the payment rates typically
decline substantially.

The following table summarizes our net operating revenues and treatments by source for each of the
periods indicated. These numbers are largely driven by the nephrologist partners we choose to partner with and the overall economic environment, particularly unemployment.

Operating Expenses

Patient care costs Patient care costs for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $54.3 million, an
increase of 17.0% from $46.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of treatments. As a percentage of net operating revenues, patient care costs were approximately 64.1%
for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 64.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Patient care costs per treatment for the three months ended March 31,

##### Table of Contents

2011 were $223, compared to $229 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in patient care costs per treatment is primarily due to a decrease in ancillary expenses per
treatment.

General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 were $10.4 million, an increase of 70.4% from $6.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to $2.2 million in increased stock-based compensation, $1.0 million in increased
charitable contributions and $0.7 million in increased personnel expense. As a percentage of net operating revenues, general and administrative costs were approximately 12.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 8.5% for the
three months ended March 31, 2010. General and administrative costs per treatment for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $43, compared to $30 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Depreciation and amortizationDepreciation and amortization expense represents expense attributable to our clinics equipment
and leasehold improvements and amortization of intangible assets. We calculate depreciation and amortization expense using a straight-line method over the assets useful lives. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 was $4.3 million, an increase of 40.7% from $3.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily related to intangible assets acquired as part of the Merger. As a percentage of operating revenues, depreciation and
amortization expense was approximately 5.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to 4.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Provision for uncollectible accountsProvision for uncollectible accounts represents reserves established for amounts for which patients are primarily responsible which we believe will not be
collectible. Provision for uncollectible accounts for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1.3 million, a increase of 10.3% from $1.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Our accounts receivable, net of the bad debt
allowance, represented approximately 62 days of revenues as of March 31, 2011 and approximately 60 days of revenues as of March 31, 2010.

Interest Expense, netInterest expense represents charges for interest associated with our corporate level debt and credit facilities entered into by our dialysis clinics, as well as accumulated
dividends and amortization of discount attributable to our Series X preferred stock during the predecessor period. Interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $5.8 million, an increase of 35.9% from $4.2 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily related to interest related to the Senior Secured Notes.

Income Tax
ExpenseThe provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 represented an effective annualized tax rate of 4.9% compared with 27.0% in 2010. The variation from the statutory federal rate of 35% on our share of pre-tax
income during the three months ended March 31, 2010 is primarily due to nondeductible Series X dividends and discount amortization accumulated during the predecessor period, state taxes and the tax impact of the noncontrolling interest.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests Noncontrolling interests represent the equity interests in
our consolidated entities that we do not own, which is primarily the equity interests of our nephrologist partners in our JV clinics. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $7.5
million, an increase of 20.9% from $6.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the addition of de novo clinics and growth in the earnings of our existing JVs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We own controlling interests in our JV clinics and our nephrologist partners own noncontrolling interests, typically between 25% and 49%. Except as otherwise indicated, the following discussion of our
liquidity and capital resources presents information on a consolidated basis, without giving effect to any noncontrolling interests in our JV clinics.

The increase in our net cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributable to an increase in
net income offset by an increase in accounts receivable. In the successor period, other non-cash and non-operating items are primarily stock-based compensation expense. In the predecessor period, other non-cash and non-operating items are primarily
non-cash Series X preferred stock interest expense.

The increase in our cash used in investing activities is due to an increase in purchases of property and
equipment due to an increase in the number of denovo clinics as compared to the predecessor period and to payments made in connection with clinics acquired in 2010.

The decrease in our cash used by financing activities is primarily due to the payoff of a majority of our
clinic level debt with the Merger in May 2010 which was financed primarily through the Senior Secured Notes, which do not require any principal payments until their maturity in May 2018.

Capital Resources

Our future needs for liquidity will arise primarily from funding the development of new clinics, operating expenses, capital expenditures, payment of the advisory fee and other expenses payable under the
management agreement with Centerbridge and to service our debt, including our New Revolving Credit Facility and the Senior Secured Notes. Our primary sources of liquidity will be funds generated from our operations, short-term borrowing under our
New Revolving Credit Facility and borrowings of long-term debt.

We believe our cash flows from operations, combined with
availability under our New Revolving Credit Facility, provide sufficient liquidity to fund our current obligations, projected working capital requirements and capital spending for a period that includes the next 12 months. If existing cash and cash
generated from operations and borrowings under the New Revolving Credit

Facility are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to obtain additional debt or equity financing. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities,
these securities could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Any financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain required financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our
planned growth efforts, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

As of March 31, 2011 we have
outstanding $256.6 million in aggregate principal amount of indebtedness, with an additional $25.0 million of borrowing capacity available under our New Revolving Credit Facility (not giving effect to any outstanding letters of credit, which would
reduce the amount available under our New Revolving Credit Facility).

Our liquidity requirements will be significant,
primarily due to debt service requirements in connection with the Transactions. In addition, we pay Centerbridge a yearly advisory services fee of the greater of (i) an amount equal to the greater of (x) $550,000 and (y) the amount of
the previous fiscal years advisory fee and (ii) an amount equal to 1.25% of our EBITDA for that fiscal year.

Historically, our principal needs for liquidity have been to fund the development and acquisition of new clinics, to pay our operating
expenses, to fund capital expenditures and to service our debt. Our primary sources of liquidity are funds generated from our operations and from borrowings of long-term debt. Our cash and cash equivalent balances were the following for each period:

At March 31, 2011, our subsidiary level long-term debt, on an aggregated basis, consisted of term
loans, lines of credit and mortgages totaling $6.6 million with maturities ranging from December 2011 to February 2015 and interest rates ranging from 1.80% to 8.67%.

Senior Secured Notes

In connection with the Transactions, we issued $250.0
million of Senior Secured Notes (the notes) at an offering price of 99.28%. The notes are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by (i) all of the our capital stock and (ii) substantially all of our assets of our wholly owned subsidiary
guarantors. The notes are guaranteed by the our direct parent, American Renal Holding Intermediate Company, LLC and all of our existing and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The notes mature on May 15, 2018. Interest is payable
semi-annually at 8.375% per annum, commencing November 15, 2010.

On or after May 15, 2015, we may redeem the
notes at our option, subject to certain notice periods, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes. Prior to May 15, 2013, we have the option to redeem during each 12-month period commencing on the issue date of May 7,
2010 up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes at 103% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. In addition, we may redeem up to 35% of the notes before
May 15, 2013, with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings. We may also redeem some or all of the notes before May 15, 2013 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
to the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium. Upon a change in control, we must offer to purchase the notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest to the purchase date.

New Revolving Credit Facility

In connection with the Transactions, we entered into a $25.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the New Revolving Credit Facility). As of March 31, 2011, there were no borrowings
outstanding under the New Revolving Credit Facility. The New Revolving Credit Facility expires on May 7, 2015. Borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) an alternate base
rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) the prime rate in effect on such day, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the Eurodollar rate applicable for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% or
(b) the LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin. The initial applicable margin for borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility is 3.50% with respect to alternate base rate borrowings and 4.50% with respect to LIBOR borrowings. In addition
to paying interest on outstanding principal under the New Revolving Credit Facility, we are required to pay a commitment fee, initially 0.75% per annum, in respect of the unutilized revolving credit commitments thereunder.

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization and other Adjustments

We believe earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and other adjustments, which we refer to as Adjusted EBITDA,
provides information useful for evaluating our businesses and understanding our operation performance in a manner similar

to management. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to ARH before income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and we further adjust for non-cash charges,
non-recurring charges and pro forma amounts for acquisitions as if they had been consummated on the first day of each period. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends because Adjusted EBITDA excludes the results of decisions
that are outside the control of operating management and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital
investments. In addition, we present Adjusted EBITDA because it is one of the components used in the calculations under the covenants contained in our revolving credit facility. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of operating performance computed in
accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows from operations, or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as measures of profitability or
liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of historical operating results, and we do not mean for it to be predictive of future results of
operations or cash flows. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this item in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that
Adjusted EBITDA:



| |  |  | does not include interest expenseas we have borrowed money for general corporate purposes, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs
and ability to generate profits and cash flows;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | does not include depreciation and amortizationbecause construction and operation of our dialysis clinics requires significant capital
expenditures, depreciation and amortization are a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | does not include stock-based compensation expense;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | does not include certain income tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to income from operations or net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as
an indicator of our operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity.

Covenant Compliance

Under the New Revolving Credit Facility, certain limitations, restrictions and defaults could occur if we are not able to satisfy and remain in compliance with specified financial ratios. We have agreed
that we will not permit the Consolidated Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (both as defined in the agreement) Ratio for any 12 month period (last four fiscal quarters) ending during a period set forth below to be greater than the ratio set forth below
opposite such period:



|                                              |  |       |           |

|December 31, 2014 and thereafter              |  |       | 4.25:1.00 | 

We have also agreed
that we will not permit the Consolidated EBITDA to Fixed Charges (both as defined in the agreement) Ratio for any 12 month period (last four fiscal quarters) ending during a period set forth below to be lower than the ratio set forth below opposite
such period:



|                                              |  |       |           | 
|--------------------------------------------- |  | ----- | --------- | 
|Period                                        |  | Ratio |          
|September 30, 2010 through September 30, 2011 |  |       | 1.80:1.00 | 
|December 31, 2011 through September 30, 2012  |  |       | 1.80:1.00 |

|December 31, 2014 and thereafter              |  |       | 2.50:1.00 | 

The breach of these
covenants could result in a default under the New Revolving Credit Facility and the lenders could elect to declare all amounts borrowed due and payable. As of March 31, 2011, we are in compliance with our covenants.

In determining Consolidated EBITDA, EBITDA is calculated by reference to net income plus
interest and other financing costs, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the agreement is calculated by adjusting EBITDA to exclude unusual items
and other adjustments permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the indentures and the credit facilities. The adjustments made in determining Consolidated EBITDA include those used in determining Adjusted EBITDA, and further include
adjustments for net income attributable to noncontrolling interests with clinic-level debt and other adjustments. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Consolidated EBITDA are appropriate to
provide additional information to investors to demonstrate our ability to comply with the financial covenants of the credit facility. The calculation of Consolidated EBITDA under the New Revolving Credit Facility is as follows (in thousands):

|(5) | Reflects net income attributable to noncontrolling interests at those clinics with $6.6 million of third-party debt as of March 31, 2011. The agreement permits
this adjustment up to the amount of third-party debt that is included in certain coverage and leverage ratios.

|(6) | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, transaction expenses, initial
public offering transaction expenses and specified legal costs. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating
activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for managements discretionary use as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax
payments and debt service requirements. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Companys results as reported under GAAP.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends because Adjusted EBITDA excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of operating management and can differ significantly from company to company depending on
long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA provides more comparability between our predecessor results and our successor results
that reflect acquisition accounting and our new capital structure. Management compensates for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and
trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone.

Consolidated EBITDA (or debt covenant EBITDA) is defined
as Adjusted EBITDA plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interests with clinic-level debt and other adjustments. Consolidated EBITDA, not Adjusted EBITDA, is used in calculating covenant compliance under the agreements governing the New
Revolving Credit Facility. The Company believes that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about items that will impact the calculation of EBITDA that is used to
determine covenant compliance under the agreements governing the New Revolving Credit Facility. Since not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of Consolidated EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of
other companies.

We also have potential acquisition obligations for some of our non-wholly-owned subsidiaries in the form of put provisions, which are
exercisable at our nephrologist partners future discretion within specified periods (time-based puts) or upon the occurrence of certain events (event-based puts) as set forth in each specific put provision. See Note
CNoncontrolling Interests Subject to Put Provisions in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, for discussion of these put provisions. These put obligations are not customary in the
operating agreements with our JV partners. Although no assurance can be given, we do not expect a significant increase in the number of future JV arrangements to contain put provisions.

Since our inception, $16.6 million of time-based obligations have become exercisable by our nephrologist partners, but only $2.6 million
of these puts have been exercised. The following is a summary of the estimated cash obligations in each of the specified years under all time-based puts existing as of March 31, 2011 (in thousands) and reflects the payments that would be made,
assuming (a) all vested puts as of March 31, 2011 are exercised on April 1, 2011 and paid accordingly and (b) all puts exercisable thereafter are exercised as soon as they vest and are paid accordingly.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2011, we adopted Accounting Standard Updates (ASU) 2010-24, Health Care Entities
(Topic 954): Presentation of Insurance Claims and Related Insurance Recoveries, which clarifies that a health care entity should not net insurance recoveries against a related claim liability. The adoption had no impact on our financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Effective January 1, 2011, we adopted ASU 2010-23, Health
Care Entities (Topic 954): Measuring Charity Care for Disclosure, which prescribes a specific measurement basis of charity care for disclosure. The adoption had no impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

A discussion of our critical accounting policies and the related judgments and estimates affecting the preparation of our consolidated financial statements is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe that these accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business, results of operations and financial condition
because they involve significant judgments and estimates

used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires a judgment or accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions
about matters that are highly uncertain, and if different estimates that could have been used, or if changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact our consolidated financial statements.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as of March 31, 2011.

activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Our investments are exposed to market risk due to a fluctuation in interest
rates, which may affect our interest income and the fair market value of our investments. Due to the short-term nature of our investment portfolio, we do not believe an immediate 10% increase in interest rates would have a material effect on the
fair market value of our portfolio, and therefore we do not expect our operating results or cash flows to be materially affected to any degree by a sudden change in market interest rates.

Interest Rate Risk

Our New Revolving Credit Facility contains multiple interest rate options which allow us to choose between a U.S. prime rate based interest rate or a London Interbank Offered Rate based interest rate. As
of March 31, 2011, there were no borrowings under our New Revolving Credit Facility. If we were to draw on it, then we would be subject to changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2011 we did not maintain any interest rate swap
agreements.

Inflation Risk

We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may
not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.



|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

At the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the
Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures in accordance with the Exchange Act requirements. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective for timely identification and review of material information required to be included in the Companys Exchange Act
reports, including this report on Form 10-Q.

There has not been any change in the Companys internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION



|ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
|------- | -----------------

We are subject to a
Decision and Order entered In the Matter of American Renal Associates Inc. and Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc. by the Federal Trade Commission. The Decision and Order was entered in 2007 following a nonpublic, informal investigation by the
Federal Trade Commission into proposed dialysis clinic acquisition activities in Rhode Island and the execution of an Agreement Containing Consent Order by the parties. The Decision and Order prohibits us for a period of ten years from
September 7, 2007, without prior notice to the Federal Trade Commission from: (1) acquiring dialysis clinics located in ZIP codes in and around the cities of Cranston and Warwick, Rhode Island, and/or (2) entering into any contract to
manage or operate dialysis clinics in ZIP codes in and around the cities of Cranston and Warwick. These prohibitions are subject to a number of exceptions that permit us to develop, own, manage or operate de novo dialysis clinics or dialysis
clinics owned or operated as of the date the Decision and Order was entered, or to perform specified services, including offsite laboratory services, bookkeeping services, accounting services, billing services, supply services and purchasing and
logistics services with the adherence to confidentiality requirements. We have complied and intend to continue to comply with the terms of the Decision and Order. We do not believe that compliance with the Decision and Order will have a material
impact on our revenues, earnings or cash flows.

We are also subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of our
business. Some of these matters include professional liability, employee-related matters and inquiries and investigations by governmental agencies regarding our employment practices. While we cannot predict the outcome of these incidental matters,
we believe that any liability arising from them will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.



|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

Investors should carefully
consider the risks described below together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as in Part 1 Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks Relating to Our Business

If the number of patients with
commercial insurance declines, or if the average rates paid by commercial payors decline, our operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.

Commercial payors pay us on terms and at rates that are generally significantly higher than Medicare rates. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we derived approximately 41% of our net
operating revenues from commercial payors, even though these payors were the source of reimbursement for approximately 13% of the treatments performed. Medicare payment rates are generally insufficient to cover our total operating expenses allocable
to providing dialysis treatments for Medicare patients, although in some circumstances they are sufficient to cover their patient care costs. The dialysis services industry is experiencing a growing number of commercial payors seeking to reduce
payment rates and impose limitations on out-of-network access and rates. The downward pressure on commercial payment rates is a result of general conditions in the market, recent and future consolidations among commercial payors, increased focus on
dialysis services and other factors. Decreases in the number of patients covered by commercial plans, reductions in commercial payor rates and decreases in out-of-network rates or increases in restrictions on out-of-network access could result in a
significant decrease in our overall revenues derived from commercial payors.

We are continuously in the process of
negotiating agreements with our commercial payors, who are increasingly aggressive in their negotiations with us. In the event that our continued negotiations result in overall commercial rate reductions in excess of overall commercial rate
increases, the cumulative effect could have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Consolidations have significantly increased the negotiating leverage of commercial payors. Our negotiations with payors are also influenced by
competitive pressures. It is possible that some of our contracted rates with commercial payors may decrease or that we may experience decreases in patient volume as our negotiations with commercial payors continue. In addition to increasing downward
pressure on contracted commercial payor rates, payors have been attempting to impose restrictions and limitations on non-contracted or out-of-network providers. Rates for out-of-network providers are on average higher than rates for in-network
providers. Commercial payors may restructure their benefits to create disincentives for patients to select or remain with out-of-network providers or may decrease payment rates for out-of-network providers. Through our affiliation with dialysis
provider trade organizations, we are resisting attempts to limit access to out-of-network providers through regulatory, legislative and legal means. Because some of our clinics are currently designated as out of network providers for our current
commercial payors, decreases in out-of-network rates and restrictions on out-of-network access combined with decreases in contracted rates could result in a significant decrease in our overall revenue derived from commercial payors. If the average
rates that commercial payors pay us decline significantly, it would have a material adverse effect on our revenues, earnings and cash flows.

Additionally, our revenues are sensitive to the percentage of patients with commercial
insurance coverage. A patients insurance coverage may change for a number of reasons, including as a result of changes in the patients or a family members employment status. Currently, for a patient covered by an employer group
health plan, Medicare generally becomes the primary payor after 33 months, including a 3-month coordination of benefits period. When Medicare becomes the primary payor, the payment rate we receive for that patient shifts from the employer group
health plan rate to the lower Medicare payment rate. If there is a significant reduction in the number of patients under higher-paying commercial plans relative to government-based programs, our revenues, earnings and cash flows would be adversely
affected.

We have seen an increase in the number of patients who have government-based programs as their primary payors which
we believe is largely as a result of the current economic recession which has reduced the percentage of patients covered under commercial insurance plans. To the extent there are sustained or increased job losses in the United States as a result of
current economic conditions, we could experience a decrease in the number of patients under commercial plans. We could also experience a further decrease if changes to the healthcare regulatory system result in fewer patients covered under
commercial plans. In addition, our continued negotiations with commercial payors could result in a decrease in the number of patients under commercial plans to the extent that we cannot reach agreement with commercial payors on rates and other
terms. If there is a significant reduction in the number of patients under higher-paying commercial plans relative to government-based programs that pay at lower rates, it would have a material adverse effect on our revenues, earnings and cash
flows.

Changes in the structure of, and payment rates under, state Medicaid programs and the Medicare ESRD program
could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

We derived approximately 2% of our revenues for
the three months ended March 31, 2011, from patients who have Medicaid as their primary coverage. As state governments face increasing budgetary pressure, they may propose reductions in payment rates, delays in the timing of payments,
limitations on eligibility or other changes to Medicaid programs. Some states have already taken steps to reduce or delay payments. In addition, Medicaid eligibility requirements mandate that citizen enrollees in Medicaid programs provide documented
proof of citizenship. Our revenues, earnings and cash flows could be negatively impacted to the extent that we are not paid by Medicaid or other state programs for services provided to patients who are unable to satisfy the eligibility requirements,
including undocumented patients living in the United States. If state governments reduce the rates paid by Medicaid programs for dialysis and related services, delay the timing of payment for services provided, further limit eligibility for Medicaid
coverage or adopt changes to the Medicaid payment structure which reduces our overall payments from Medicaid, then our revenues, earnings and cash flows could be adversely affected.

On December 17, 2010, the Department of Veterans Affairs published a final rule in which became effective in February 2011 which
materially changed the payment methodology and ultimately the amount paid for dialysis services furnished to veterans in non-VA centers such as ours. In the final rule, the VA adopted the bundled payment system implemented by Medicare and estimated
a reduction of 39% in payments for dialysis services to veterans at non-VA centers. The new VA payment methodology has had a significant negative impact on our net operating revenues and cash flows as a result of the reduction in rates or as a
result of the decrease in the number of VA patients we serve. Given the limited timeframe in which the bundled payment system has been in effect, at this time we cannot predict whether we will be able to reduce our operating costs to a level that
will fully offset any reduction in overall reimbursement for services we provide to VA patients.

During the three months
ended March 31, 2011, we derived approximately 58% of our revenues from reimbursement from federal programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid. Prior to January 2011, the Medicare ESRD program paid us for dialysis treatment services at a single
composite rate for each dialysis treatment, adjusted based upon geography and individual patient characteristics. The composite rate included the supplies used in those treatments, specified laboratory tests and certain pharmaceuticals. This
Medicare ESRD program did not provide for regular percentage increases in the composite rate. Accordingly, the amounts by which we were reimbursed for our services were not adjusted to keep pace with inflation, even if our operating costs, which
include labor and supply costs, increased.

Other services and pharmaceuticals, vitamin D analogs, and iron supplements, were
separately billed. These separately-billable pharmaceuticals include erythropoietin (EPO), a pharmaceutical used to treat anemia, a common complication associated with ESRD.

Beginning in January 2011, Medicare ESRD payments are made under a bundled payment rate which provides for a fixed rate for all goods and
services provided during the dialysis treatment, including laboratory services, the administration of pharmaceuticals and payments for pharmaceuticals such as EPO that were separately billed under the previous methodology. Further the bundled
payment system requires dialysis facilities to provide new services within the payment bundle such as oral vitamin D medications and an expanded list of laboratory tests. Historically these services were separately billable; now the dialysis
facility is at risk for utilization with reimbursement set at a fixed rate. With regard to the expanded list of case-mix adjustors, these are difficult for our dialysis clinics or billing and other systems to document and track which results in an
increased risk in a reduction in the amounts of

##### Table of Contents

the payments that we would otherwise be entitled to receive. The rule also requires the new single bundled payment base rate to be adjusted annually for inflation based upon a market basket
index, less a productivity adjustment, beginning in 2012. Also, beginning in 2012, the rule provides for up to a 2% withholding that can be earned back by facilities that meet certain defined clinical performance standards however, to the extent our
facilities do not fully meet the established benchmarks, we may not earn back all (or any) of the dollars withheld.

Dialysis
providers were given the option to make a one-time election by November 1, 2010 to move fully to the bundled payment system in 2011 or to phase in the payment system over four years, in each case commencing on January 1, 2011. All of our
clinics with the exception of one elected to move fully to the bundled payment system. Given the limited timeframe in which the bundled payment system has been in effect, at this time we cannot predict whether we will be able to reduce our operating
costs to a level that will fully offset any reduction in overall reimbursement for services we provide to Medicare patients. In addition, we experience increases in operating costs that are subject to inflation, such as labor and supply costs,
regardless of whether there is a compensating inflation-based increase in Medicare payment rates or the new bundled payment.

Federal or state healthcare reform laws could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

On March 30, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act that modified the newly enacted
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as the Health Care Reform Act. This culmination of a year-long legislative process will have a significant impact on the health care delivery system. Much of that impact, specifically
as related to dialysis services, is unknown.

The Health Care Reform Act, among other things, sets out a plan for a type of
universal healthcare coverage. A number of states, including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York and Pennsylvania, are also contemplating significant reform of their health insurance markets. Other states have mounted legal
challenges to the implementation of certain aspects of the health care reform bill in their respective states. The Health Care Reform Act, along with possible changes at the state level, will affect both public programs and privately-financed health
insurance arrangements. Both the new federal law and the state proposals increase the number of insured persons by expanding the eligibility levels for public programs and compelling individuals and employers to purchase health coverage. At the same
time, these laws seek to reform the underwriting and marketing practices of health plans. These laws could further increase pricing pressure on existing commercial payors. As a result, commercial payors may likely seek to lower their rates of
reimbursement for the services we provide. The state proposals are still being debated in various legislatures and the legal challenges to the Health Care Reform Act are pending in various courts, including four United States Courts of Appeals.

Given the recent enactment of the Health Care Reform Act, and taking into account proposed state reforms and possible legal
challenges, we cannot predict how our business will be affected by the full implementation of these and future actions. The Health Care Reform Act, in connection with state initiatives, may increase our costs, decrease our revenues, expose us to
expanded liability or require us to revise the ways in which we conduct our business, any of which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

If we fail to adhere to all of the complex federal, state and local government regulations that apply to our business, we could suffer severe consequences and it could adversely affect our operating
results and financial condition.

Our dialysis operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local government
regulations, all of which are subject to change. These government regulations currently relate, among other things, to:



| |  |  | government healthcare program participation requirements and reimbursement for patient services, including Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rules
and regulations;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | federal and state anti-kickback laws, the federal Stark Laws prohibition on physician self-referrals and analogous state physician self-referral
statutes;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | false claims prohibitions for healthcare reimbursement programs and other fraud and abuse laws and regulations, including amendments to the federal
False Claims Act in 2009 and a provision in the Health Care Reform Act extending the federal False Claims Act to include, under certain circumstances, claims based on violations of the federal anti-kickback law;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | federal and state laws regarding record keeping requirements, privacy and security protections applicable to the collection, use and disclosure of
protected health information, security breach notification requirements relating to protected health information, and standards for the exchange of electronic health information, electronic transactions and code sets and unique identifiers for
providers;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | corporate practice of medicine;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | licensing and certification requirements applicable to our dialysis clinics; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | regulation related to health, safety and environmental compliance, including medical waste disposal.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We endeavor to comply with all of the requirements for receiving Medicare and Medicaid payments and to structure all of our relationships
with physicians to comply with state and federal anti-kickback laws, the federal Stark Law and applicable state self-referral laws. However, the laws and regulations in this area are complex and subject to varying interpretations. For example, if a
governmental agency were to challenge the level of compensation that we pay our medical directors, we could be required to change our practices, face criminal or civil penalties, pay substantial fines or otherwise experience a material adverse
effect as a result of a challenge to these arrangements.

Both federal and state government agencies, as well as private
payors, have heightened and coordinated audits and administrative, civil, and criminal enforcement efforts as part of numerous ongoing investigations of healthcare organizations. These investigations relate to a wide variety of topics, including the
following:



| |  |  | cost reporting and billing practices;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | quality of care;
| | - |  | ----------------



| |  |  | financial reporting;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | financial relationships with referral sources; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | medical necessity of services provided.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------

In addition, CMS has increased the frequency and intensity of its certification inspections of dialysis clinics. State and federal governments have increased enforcement efforts and discussions related to
proposed federal and state healthcare reform raise the possibility of significantly increased funding for enforcement of anti-fraud, physician self-referral, and false claims laws against healthcare providers. We may be especially susceptible to
state law regulation risks in states where we have large concentrations of business and in states in which we establish new JVs but in which we may be unfamiliar with the regulatory requirements. For example, we are required to provide substantial
documentation related to the administration of pharmaceuticals, including EPO. To the extent that any of this documentation is found insufficient, we may be required to refund any amounts received from this administration by government or commercial
payors, and be subject to substantial penalties under applicable laws or regulations. In addition, fiscal intermediaries have increased their prepayment and post-payment reviews. Medicare Administrative Contractors are now active in many, but not
all, states and are responsible for performing the functions previously performed by fiscal intermediaries. Medicare has established a network of privately contracted auditors, called Recovery Audit Contractors, or RACs, which will conduct
post-payment reviews to identify improper payments made by Medicare to providers. Each of the four RACs has been assigned to one of the four regional jurisdictions covering the United States. RACs are to be paid on a contingency basis for all
overpayments identified and recovered. If any of these enforcement actions or payment reviews identifies non-compliance or overpayments by us, they could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

The Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rules related to claims submission, licensing requirements, cost reporting, and payment processes
impose complex and extensive requirements upon dialysis providers. A violation or departure from these requirements may result in government audits, lower reimbursements, recoupments or voluntary repayments, and the potential loss of certification.
Further, if any of our operations are found to violate these or other government regulations, we could suffer severe consequences that would have a material adverse effect on our revenues, earnings and cash flows including:



| |  |  | suspension or termination, through exclusion or otherwise, of our participation in government payment programs;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | refunds to the government and third-party payors of amounts received in violation of law or applicable payment program requirements;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of required government certifications or exclusion from government payment programs;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of licenses required to operate healthcare clinics in some of the states in which we operate;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | reductions in payment rates or coverage for dialysis and ancillary services and related pharmaceuticals;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fines, damages or monetary penalties for anti-kickback law violations, federal Stark Law violations, violations of state self-referral and
anti-kickback prohibitions, submission of false claims, civil or criminal liability based on violations of law, or other failures to meet regulatory requirements;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | claims for monetary damages from or on behalf of patients who believe their protected health information has been used or disclosed in violation of
federal or state patient privacy laws, or the imposition of fines and penalties for violations of those laws;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | mandated practice changes that significantly increase operating expenses; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | termination of relationships with medical directors or healthcare providers.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, the Office of Inspector General within the Department of Health and Human
Services and the Department of Justice have, from time to time, undertaken national enforcement initiatives that focus on specific billing practices or other suspected areas of abuse. If such enforcement initiatives are undertaken or if we become
subject to any federal or state audits or investigations we are unable to predict the impact such actions would have on our business, financial position or results of operations. See BusinessGovernment Regulation.

The laws and regulations relating to our operations vary from state to state, and many states prohibit general business corporations, as
we are, from practicing medicine, controlling physicians medical decisions or engaging in some practices such as splitting professional fees with physicians. Possible sanctions for violation of these restrictions include loss of license and
civil and criminal penalties. In addition, agreements between the corporation and the physician may be considered void and unenforceable. We have structured our activities and operations to avoid conflict with state law restrictions on the corporate
practice of medicine, and we have structured all of our corporate and operational agreements to conform to any licensure requirements, fee-splitting and related corporate practice of medicine prohibitions. See BusinessGovernment
Regulation. However, other parties may assert that we are engaged in the corporate practice of medicine or unlawful fee-splitting despite the way we are structured. Were such allegations to be asserted successfully before the appropriate
judicial or administrative forums, we could be subject to adverse judicial or administrative penalties, certain contracts could be determined to be unenforceable and we may be required to restructure our contractual arrangements.

Our attempt to expand through development of de novo clinics or acquisition of existing dialysis clinics entails risks to our
growth, as well as our operating results and financial condition.

We have experienced rapid growth since our
inception. We have grown primarily through the development of de novo dialysis clinics as JVs with nephrologists or nephrologist groups, but we have also grown through the acquisition of existing clinics that we have restructured as JVs. Growth
through development and acquisition places significant demands on our financial and management resources. Inability on our part to address these demands could adversely affect our growth, as well as our operating results and financial condition.

We generally expand by seeking appropriate locations for a dialysis clinic, taking into consideration the potential patient
base, payor types, the availability of a nephrologist to be our medical director and nephrologist partner, and a skilled work force including qualified and cost-effective nursing and technical personnel. The inability to identify suitable locations,
suitable nephrologist partners and workforce personnel for our dialysis clinics could adversely affect our growth as well as our operating results and financial condition.

The cost of developing a de novo dialysis clinic can be expensive and may include costs related to construction, equipment and initial working capital. In general, acquiring an existing dialysis clinic is
more costly than developing a de novo dialysis clinic, but has historically been a faster means for achieving profitability. De novo dialysis clinics are subject to various risks, including risks associated with the availability and terms of
financing for development and securing appropriate licenses. In addition, our de novo clinics may not become cash flow positive or profitable on a timely basis or at all. The inability to develop de novo clinics or acquire existing clinics on
reasonable terms or in a cost-effective manner could adversely affect our growth as well as our operating results and financial condition. There is no assurance that we will be able to continue to successfully expand our business through
establishing de novo clinics, or that de novo clinics will be able to achieve profitability that is consistent with our past results.

Our business strategy includes the selective acquisition of existing dialysis clinics. Businesses we acquire may have unknown or contingent liabilities or liabilities that are in excess of the amounts
that we originally estimated. Although we generally seek indemnification from the sellers of businesses we acquire for matters that are not properly disclosed to us, we may not be successful. In addition, even in cases where we are able to obtain
indemnification, we may be subject to liabilities greater than the contractual limits of our indemnification or the financial resources of the indemnifying party. In the event that we are responsible for liabilities substantially in excess of any
amounts recovered through rights to indemnification, we could suffer severe consequences that could adversely impact our operating results.

If physicians cease referring patients to our dialysis clinics, our revenues would decrease.

Our dialysis services business is dependent upon patients choosing our clinics as the location for their treatments. Patients may select a clinic based, in whole or in part, on the recommendation of their
physician. We believe that physicians and other clinicians typically consider a number of factors when recommending a particular dialysis facility to an ESRD patient, including, but not limited to, the quality of care at a clinic, the competency of
a clinics staff, convenient scheduling, and a clinics location and physical condition. Physicians, including our nephrologist partners who are our medical directors, may change their facility recommendations at any time, which may result
in the transfer of our existing patients to competing clinics, including clinics established by the physicians themselves. Our dialysis care business also depends on recommendations by hospitals, managed care plans and other health



35

##### Table of Contents

care institutions. If a significant number of providers cease referring their patients to our clinics, this would reduce our dialysis care revenue and could materially adversely affect our
overall operations.

Our arrangements with our nephrologist partners and medical directors do not satisfy all the
elements of a safe harbor to the federal anti-kickback statute and certain state anti-kickback laws and as a result may subject us to government scrutiny.

We take great efforts to ensure that our JV arrangements and medical director agreements comply with applicable laws and government regulations or fall within applicable safe harbors. Our business model
is focused exclusively on JVs with nephrologist partners, which we have sought to structure in compliance with the federal anti-kickback statute, the Stark Law, and analogous state anti-kickback and self-referral laws, including the exceptions
applicable to Medicare ESRD services. Many of our JVs with physicians or physician groups also involve the nephrologist partners providing medical director services to those clinics. Under Medicare regulations, each of our dialysis clinics is
required to have an active medical director who is responsible for decision-making in analyzing core processes and patient outcomes and in stimulating a team approach to Continuous Quality Improvement and patient safety. For these services, we
retain a physician on an independent contractor basis at an annual fixed fee to serve as the medical director. In the majority of cases, the medical director is also a nephrologist partner of ours in the particular dialysis clinic in question.

We believe that our relationships with our nephrologist partners, which includes our medical directors, meet most but not all
of the elements of one of the safe harbors to the federal anti-kickback statute and may not meet all of the elements of analogous state safe harbors. Arrangements that do not meet all of the elements of a safe harbor are not prohibited under the
federal anti-kickback statute but are susceptible to government scrutiny. The Office of Inspector General, or OIG, of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has indicated a concern about joint venture arrangements between physicians and
other healthcare providers that may benefit from referrals of patients by those physicians or other business generated between the parties. Accordingly, there is some risk that the OIG or another government agency might investigate our JV
arrangements and medical director contracts. In addition, if physician self-referral laws were to be interpreted differently than they currently are, we may be found to be in violation of such laws. If our arrangements with our medical directors
were investigated and determined to violate the federal anti-kickback statute or analogous state laws, we could be required to restructure these relationships. We could also be subjected to severe monetary consequences that could adversely affect
our operating results and financial condition, including, but not limited to, the repayment of amounts received from Medicare by the offending clinics and the payment of penalties.

If we cannot renew our medical director agreements or enforce the noncompetition agreements with our medical directors, whether due
to regulatory or other reasons, our operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Our medical director contracts are for fixed initial ten-year periods with automatic renewal options. Medical directors have no obligation to extend their agreements with us. We may take actions to
restructure existing relationships or take positions in negotiating extensions of relationships to assure compliance with the safe harbor provisions of the anti-kickback statute, Stark Law and other similar laws. These actions could negatively
impact the decision of physicians to extend their medical director agreements with us or to recommend us to their patients. If the terms of any existing agreement are found to violate applicable laws, we may not be successful in restructuring the
relationship which could lead to the early termination of the agreement, or cause the physician to stop recommending our dialysis clinics to their patients. If a significant number of physicians were to cease recommending our dialysis clinics to
their patients, whether due to regulatory or other reasons, then our revenues, earnings and cash flows would be substantially reduced.

If a medical director agreement terminates, whether before or at the end of its term, it may negatively impact that former medical directors decision to treat his or her patients at one of our
clinics. All of our medical director agreements provide for noncompetition restrictions prohibiting the medical directors from owning an interest in or serving as a medical director of a competing facility within specified geographical areas for
specified periods of time. If we are unable to enforce the noncompetition provisions contained in our medical director agreements, it is possible that these medical directors may choose to provide medical director services for competing providers or
establish their own dialysis clinics in competition with ours.

Delays in state Medicare and Medicaid certification of
our dialysis clinics could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

We are required to obtain
state and federal certification for participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs before we can begin billing for patients treated in our clinics who are enrolled in government-based programs. Due to budgetary pressures, significant delays in
certification have occurred in some states and additional delays may occur in the future. For example, the state of Texas stopped certifying dialysis clinics during a portion of 2009, and the state of California experienced significant delays in
certifying dialysis clinics during 2009. Failures or delays in obtaining certification could cause significant delays in our ability to bill for services provided to patients covered under government programs, cause us to incur write-offs of
investments or accelerate the recognition of lease obligations in the event we have to close clinics or our clinics operating performance deteriorates. This could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

Our business is subject to substantial competition, which could adversely impact our
operating results and financial condition as well as growth.

The development, acquisition and operation of dialysis
clinics is highly competitive. Our competition comes from other dialysis clinics, many of which are owned by much larger public companies, small to mid-sized private companies, acute care hospitals, nursing homes and physician groups. The dialysis
industry is rapidly consolidating, resulting in several large dialysis companies competing with us for the acquisition of existing dialysis clinics and the development of relationships with nephrologists to serve as medical directors for new
clinics. Over the past few years, several dialysis companies, including some of our largest competitors, have adopted a JV model of dialysis clinic ownership resulting in increased competition in the development, acquisition and operation of our JV
dialysis clinics. The addition of competitors using a JV model could adversely affect our growth as well as our operating results and financial condition. Some of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources, more dialysis clinics
and a significantly larger patient base. Some of our competitors may also be able to achieve better economies of scale by asserting leverage against their suppliers and other commercial parties.

Changes in clinical practices relating to EPO, the use and marketing of alternatives to EPO and fluctuation in prices for EPO and
other pharmaceuticals could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition as well as our ability to care for patients.

Changes in clinical practices that result in decreased utilization of prescribed pharmaceuticals or changes in payment rates for those pharmaceuticals could adversely affect our operating results and
financial condition. Since late 2006, there has been significant media discussion and government scrutiny regarding anemia management practices in the United States which has created confusion and concern in the nephrology community. In late 2006,
the House Ways and Means Committee held a hearing on the issue of the utilization of erythropoiesis stimulating agents, or ESAs, which include EPO, and in 2007, the FDA required changes to the labeling of EPO and Aranesp® to include a black box warning, the FDAs strongest form of warning label. The FDA held additional hearings to
revisit these label changes as they apply to ESRD. CMS also reviewed its EPO reimbursement policies and in January 2008, changes to the EPO monitoring policy went into effect which further limited reimbursement and which impacted the prescribing
habits of our physicians and which has in the past and may in the future result in lower pharmaceutical intensities. Most recently, on March 24, 2010, the CMS Medical Evidence Development & Coverage Committee (MEDCAC) met
to examine currently available evidence on the use of erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs), including EPO. MEDCAC is an independent body established to provide guidance and expert advice to CMS on clinical issues. At the meeting,
evidence was presented from current and recently completed clinical studies regarding the effectiveness of use of ESAs to manage anemia in patients who have chronic kidney disease. No policy determinations or recommendations concerning the manner in
which ESAs, such as EPO, are covered or reimbursed under Medicare were made at the meeting, although MEDCAC is empowered to submit future recommendations to CMS following its review of the available evidence. Commercial payors have also increasingly
examined their administration policies for EPO and, in some cases have modified those policies. Further changes in labeling of EPO and other pharmaceuticals in a manner that alters physician practice patterns or accepted clinical practices, changes
in private and government payment criteria, including the introduction of EPO administration policies or the conversion to alternate types of administration of EPO or other pharmaceuticals that result in further decreases in utilization or
reimbursement for EPO and other pharmaceuticals could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, earnings and cash flows.

Amgen Inc. (Amgen) is the sole supplier of EPO. We purchase EPO from Amgen through a group purchasing organization that
negotiates the terms on which we purchase EPO. The available supply of EPO could be delayed or reduced, whether by Amgen itself, through unforeseen circumstances or as a result of excessive demand. In addition, our group purchasing organization may
be unable to negotiate acceptable terms for us to purchase EPO from Amgen, or Amgen may unilaterally decide to increase its price for EPO at any time. If that occurs, we may have no ability on our part to pass any price increases to our payors.
Future changes in the cost of EPO could have a material adverse effect on our earnings and cash flows and ultimately reduce our income. Although our agreements with our group purchasing organization and Amgen for EPO include potential rebates that
depend upon our achievement of certain criteria, we cannot predict whether we will continue to receive rebates for EPO at the levels that we currently receive, or whether we will continue to achieve the same levels of rebates within that structure
as we have historically achieved. Our agreements with our group purchasing organization and Amgen provide for specific rebates off list price based on a combination of factors, including data submission. Factors that could impact our ability to
qualify for rebates provided for in our agreements with our group purchasing organization and Amgen in the future include our ability to track data elements. Failure to meet targets and earn the specified rebates could adversely affect our operating
results and financial condition.

Amgen has developed and obtained FDA approval for Aranesp®, and Roche has developed Mircera®, each of which are pharmaceuticals used to treat anemia that may replace EPO or reduce its use with dialysis patients. Unlike EPO, which is generally administered in
conjunction with each dialysis treatment, Aranesp® and
Mircera® are administered less frequently. If Aranesp®, Mircera® or any future
alternatives to EPO are marketed for the treatment of dialysis patients, we may realize lower margins on the administration of these pharmaceuticals than we currently realize with EPO. A significant increase in the development and use of similar
alternatives to EPO, or a change in drug administration practices, could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Current economic conditions, including the current recession in the United States and the worldwide economic slowdown, as well as further disruptions in the financial markets, could adversely impact
our operating results and financial condition.

The current economic recession in the United States and worldwide
economic slowdown could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Among other things, the potential decline in federal and state revenues that may result from these conditions may create additional pressures to contain or
reduce reimbursements for our services from Medicare, Medicaid and other government sponsored programs. Our business may be particularly sensitive to economic conditions in certain states in which we operate a large number of clinics, such as
Florida, Rhode Island or others. The increased job losses and elevated unemployment rates in the United States resulting from the recession could result in a smaller percentage of patients being covered by commercial payors and a larger percentage
being covered by lower-paying Medicare and Medicaid programs. Employers may also begin to select more restrictive commercial plans with lower reimbursement rates. To the extent that payors are adversely affected by a decline in the economy, we may
experience further pressure on commercial rates, delays in fee collections and a reduction in the amounts we are able to collect. In addition, if the current turmoil in the financial markets continues, interest rates may increase and it could be
more difficult to obtain credit in the future. Any or all of these factors, as well as other consequences of the current economic conditions which currently cannot be anticipated, could adversely impact our operating results and financial condition.

We may be subject to liability claims for damages and other expenses not covered by insurance that could adversely
impact our operating results.

The administration of dialysis services to patients may subject us to litigation and
liability for damages based on an allegation of malpractice, professional negligence in the performance of our treatment and related services, the acts or omissions of our employees, or other matters. Our exposure to this litigation and liability
for damages increases with growth in the number of our clinics and treatments performed. Potential judgments, settlements or costs relating to potential future claims, complaints or lawsuits could result in substantial damages and could subject us
to the incurrence of significant fees and costs. Our insurance may not be sufficient or available to cover these damages, costs or expenses. Our business, profitability and growth prospects could suffer if we face negative publicity or we pay
damages or defense costs in connection with a claim that is outside the scope of any applicable insurance coverage, including claims related to contractual disputes and professional and general liability claims.

Our insurance costs have been increasing substantially over the last several years, and our coverage may not be sufficient to cover
claims and losses.

We maintain a program of insurance coverage against a broad range of risks in our business. In
particular, we maintain professional liability insurance, subject to deductibles. The premiums and deductibles under our insurance program have been increasing over the last several years as a result of general business rate increases. We are unable
to predict further increases in premiums and deductibles, but based on recent experience, we anticipate further increases in this area, which could adversely impact earnings. The liability exposure of operations in the healthcare services industry
has increased, resulting not only in increased premiums, but in limited liability on behalf of the insurance carriers. Our ability to obtain the necessary and sufficient insurance coverage for our operations upon expiration of our insurance policies
may be limited, and sufficient insurance may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. We could be materially and adversely affected by any of the following:



| |  |  | our inability to obtain sufficient insurance for our operations;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the collapse or insolvency of our insurance carriers;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | further increases in premiums and deductibles; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an inability to obtain one or more types of insurance on acceptable terms.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are significant risks associated with estimating the amount of revenues that we recognize that could impact the timing of our
recognition of revenues or have a significant impact on our operating results and financial condition.

There are
significant risks associated with estimating the amount of revenues that we recognize in a reporting period. Ongoing insurance coverage changes, geographic coverage differences, differing interpretations of contract coverage, and other payor issues
complicate the billing and collection process. Determining applicable primary and secondary coverage for an extensive number of



38

##### Table of Contents

patients at any point in time, together with the changes in patient coverage that occur each month, requires complex, resource-intensive processes. Errors in determining the correct coordination
of benefits may result in refunds to payors. Revenues associated with Medicare and Medicaid programs also are subject to estimating risk related to the amounts not paid by the primary government payor that will ultimately be collectible from other
government programs paying secondary coverage, the patients commercial health plan secondary coverage or the patient. Collections, refunds and payor retractions typically continue to occur for up to three years and longer after services are
provided. If our estimates of revenues are materially inaccurate, it could impact the timing of our recognition of revenues and have a significant impact on our operating results and financial condition.

We may be the subject of inquiries by governmental authorities, any of which could result in substantial penalties against us.

From time to time, we may be the subject of inquiries or investigations by governmental authorities. Any negative
findings could result in substantial financial penalties against us, exclusion from future participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and, in some cases, criminal penalties. Further, in many cases the mere existence or announcement of any
such inquiry could have a material adverse effect on our business. While some proceedings against companies in our industry may be filed under seal, we have no notice or knowledge that proceedings have been initiated against us at this time.
Although we cannot predict whether or when proceedings might be initiated or when these matters may be resolved, it is not unusual for these investigations to continue for a considerable period of time. Responding to these investigations can require
substantial management attention and significant legal expense, which could materially adversely affect our operations.

If our key supplier is unable to meet our needs or if we are unable effectively to access new technology it could adversely affect
our operating results and financial condition.

Amgen Inc. is the sole supplier of EPO, the administration of which
makes up a significant portion of our revenues. If this supplier is unable to meet our needs for EPO or EPO alternatives, including in the event of a product recall, and we are not able to find adequate alternative sources, it could adversely affect
our operating results and financial condition.

In addition, the technology related to EPO is subject to new developments that
may result in superior products. If we are not able to access these superior products on a cost-effective basis or if suppliers are not able to fulfill our requirements for products, we could face patient attrition which could adversely affect our
operating results and financial condition.

Material decisions regarding our dialysis clinics may require consent or
trigger rights of our nephrologist partners, and we may be required to purchase the ownership interests of our nephrologist partners or be unable to take actions that we believe are in our best interest.

Our nephrologist partners participate in material strategic and operating decisions we make for our clinics. For example, we generally
must obtain the consent of our nephrologist partners before making any material amendments to the operating agreement for the dialysis clinic or admitting additional members. See BusinessJV Operating Agreements. In addition, some
of our JV operating agreements grant our nephrologist partners rights to require us to purchaseat fair market value or book value depending on the circumstances their ownership interests at certain set times or upon the occurrence of
certain triggering events. Event-based triggers of these rights in various JV operating agreements may include sale of assets, closure of the clinic, acquisitions over a certain dollar amount, failure to make distributions and other events. The
consummation of the Transactions triggered some of these rights of our nephrologist partners, but such rights were waived. Time-based triggers give nephrologist partners at certain of our clinics the option to require us to purchase previously
agreed upon percentages of their ownership interests at certain set dates.

The rights of our nephrologist partners to approve
material decisions could limit our ability to take actions that we believe are in our best interest and the best interest of the dialysis clinic. We may not be able to resolve favorably, or at all, any dispute regarding material decisions with our
nephrologist partners.

The funds required to honor our put obligations may make it difficult for us to meet our other debt
obligations, including borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility and the payments of the notes being exchanged hereby. As a result of the exercise of these rights by nephrologist partners, we may also lose the JV ownership structure in some
of our clinics. As of March 31, 2011, we have recorded liabilities of approximately $35 million for all existing time-based obligations and approximately $9 million for all existing event-based obligations to our nephrologist partners, which
amounts reflect our estimation of fair market value as of March 31, 2011.

Shortages of qualified skilled clinical
personnel, or higher than normal turnover rates, could affect our ability to grow and deliver quality, timely and cost-effective care services.

We depend on qualified nurses and other skilled clinical personnel to provide quality service to patients in our clinics. Competition is intense for qualified nursing, technical staff and nephrologists.
We depend on our ability to attract and retain skilled clinical personnel to support our growth and generate revenues. There is currently a shortage of skilled clinical personnel in many of



39

##### Table of Contents

the markets in which we operate our clinics as well as markets in which we are considering opening new clinics. This nursing shortage may adversely affect our ability to grow or, in some cases,
to replace existing staff, thereby leading to disruptions in our services. In addition, this shortage of skilled clinical personnel and the more stressful working conditions it creates for those remaining in the profession are increasingly viewed as
a threat to patient safety and may trigger the adoption of state and federal laws and regulations intended to reduce that risk. For example, some states have adopted or are considering legislation that would prohibit forced overtime for nurses or
establish mandatory staffing level requirements.

In response to the shortage of skilled clinical personnel, we have increased
and are likely to have to continue to increase our wages and benefits to recruit and retain nurses or to engage contract nurses at a higher expense until we hire permanent staff nurses. We may not be able to increase the rates we charge to offset
increased costs. The shortage of skilled clinical personnel may in the future delay our ability to achieve our operational goals at a dialysis clinic by limiting the number of patients we are able to service. The shortage of skilled clinical
personnel also makes it difficult for us in some markets to reduce personnel expense at our clinics by implementing a reduction in the size of the skilled clinical personnel staff during periods of reduced patient admissions and procedure volumes.
In addition, we believe that retention of skilled clinical personnel is an important factor in a patients decision to continue receiving treatment at one of our clinics. If we are unable to hire skilled clinical personnel when needed, or if we
experience a higher than normal turnover rate for our skilled clinical personnel, our operations and treatment growth will be negatively impacted, which would result in reduced revenues, earnings and cash flows.

Growing numbers of skilled clinical personnel are also joining unions that threaten and sometimes call work stoppages. Currently, none of
our employees belong to a union. Union organizing activities at our clinics could adversely affect our operating costs, our employee relations, productivity, earnings and cash flows.

Because our senior management has been key to our growth and success, we may be adversely affected if we lose any member of our
senior management.

We are highly dependent on our senior management. Although we have employment agreements with our
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer, we do not maintain key man life insurance policies on any of our officers. Because our senior management has contributed greatly to our growth since inception, the
loss of key management personnel or our inability to attract, retain and motivate sufficient members of qualified management or other personnel could have a material adverse effect on us.

We depend on our relationships with our medical directors. Our ability to provide medical services at our facilities would be
impaired and our revenues reduced if we were not able to maintain these relationships.

Our business depends on the
efforts and success of the physicians who are medical directors at our clinics and the strength of our relationships with these physicians. The efforts of our medical directors directly correlate to the patient satisfaction and operating metrics of
our clinics. Our revenues would be reduced if we lost our relationship with one of these key medical directors or group of medical directors. In addition, any failure of these medical directors to maintain the quality of medical care provided or to
otherwise adhere to professional guidelines at our clinics or any damage to the reputation of a key medical director or group of medical directors could damage our reputation, subject us to liability and significantly reduce our revenues.

In addition our ability to attract physicians to enter into JV partnerships with us is essential to the growth of our
business. If we became unable to attract physicians to enter into JV partnerships it would have a material adverse effect on us.

We will be required to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls when we become subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 also requires public companies to have and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements, and have management review the effectiveness of those controls on an annual basis (and, in certain cases, have the independent
auditor attest to the effectiveness of such internal controls). We are required comply with these requirements, and therefore may not have comparable procedures in place as compared to public companies.

We will, to the extent required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, be required to annually complete an evaluation of
our internal controls over financial reporting beginning in 2011. Because we are currently in the process of evaluating our internal controls, we cannot predict the outcome of this testing and our internal controls over financial reporting may not
be effective. If our internal controls are ineffective, our financial results could be adversely affected. We will incur additional expenses and commitment of managements time in connection with these evaluations.

We are indirectly owned and controlled by the Sponsor, and the Sponsors
interests as equity holders may conflict with yours as a creditor.

The Sponsor owns a significant majority of our
parent companys equity and, accordingly, will have the ability to control our policies and operations. As a result, the Sponsor has control over our decisions to enter into any corporate transaction and have the ability to prevent any
transaction that requires the approval of stockholders. In addition, the Sponsor may have an interest in pursuing dispositions, acquisitions, financings or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their equity investments, even
though such transactions might involve risks to us as a company.

The Sponsor may direct us to make significant changes to our
business operations and strategy, including with respect to, among other things, clinic openings and closings, sales of real estate and other assets, employee headcount levels and initiatives to reduce costs and expenses. We cannot provide assurance
that the future business operations of our company will remain broadly in line with our existing operations.

The Sponsor is
also in the business of making investments for their own accounts in companies, and may from time to time acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us. The Sponsor may also pursue acquisition opportunities
that may be complementary to our business and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. So long as investment funds associated with or designated by the Sponsor owns a significant amount of the outstanding shares of
our common stock, the Sponsor will continue to be able to influence or effectively control our decisions.
