by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee. Additionally, the EBITDA targets listed above shall be adjusted to reflect the projected impact of any business combination involving Employer which may occur prior to the vesting event with
such adjustments to be determined by adding to the prospective EBITDA targets the EBITDA of any such business combined with the business of the Employer for the 12 months preceding the acquisition).

Permanent Disability, Employee shall have twelve (12) months from the date of such termination to exercise any vested options held by the Employee. All options granted by this Amendment shall be subject to the terms of the 2003 Employee Stock Option
Plan and the Employee shall enter into a standard stock option agreement containing the foregoing terms and other customary provisions for options issued under the 2003 Stock Option Plan.

| | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



5. Subsection (a) of Section 7 of the Employment
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the current Subsection (a) in its entirety and substituting the following in place of such deleted subsection:



(a) If during the term of this Agreement, Employees employment is terminated (i) by the Employer other than for Cause, as
defined below, or (ii) by the Employee as a result of the occurrence of a Constructive Termination Event, as defined below, which has not been cured by the Employer within 30 days of receipt of written notice from the Employee that such event has
occurred, then upon the occurrence of such event Employer shall pay to the Employee (or the Employees estate in the event of death after termination), as a severance benefit and in complete satisfaction of any and all claims which Employee may
have against Employer or its affiliates, officers, directors or employees as a result of this Agreement or his previous employment by Employer, an amount which is equal to one (1) times Employees Annual Base Salary; provided, however, Employer
shall not be obligated to pay any severance benefit until Employee (or Employees personal representative in the event of Employees death) has delivered to Employer a complete and unconditional release, in form reasonably satisfactory to
Employer, releasing Employer from any and all claims which Employee may have against Employer as a result of any occurrence during Employees employment and including, but not limited to, any claim for wrongful termination (the Employee
Release). The foregoing notwithstanding, the Employee Release shall not release the Employer from any of its post termination obligations under this Agreement or under any employee benefit plan of the Employer. Such severance benefit shall be
paid within ten (10) days following the effective date of such termination. As used in this Agreement:



31

(A) the term Cause means (i) the Employees violation of his fiduciary
duty to the Employer, (ii) gross or willful failure by the Employee to perform the duties of Employees position, (iii) the Employees habitual unexcused absence over an extended period, (iv) embezzlement or misappropriation of Employer
funds by the Employee, or (v) the Employees conviction of a felony;



(B) the term Permanent Disability means the permanent mental or physical inability of the Employee to perform with reasonable accommodation the essential duties of Employees position as existing on
the date of this Agreement which condition causes the Employee to be unable to perform the duties of his office for a period of six months in any twelve-month period.



(C) the term Constructive Termination Event means action by the Employer which is directed at
the Employee specifically and not at all employees generally and which has the effect of significantly reducing the Employees compensation, employment responsibilities, or authority, or the nonpayment by Employer of compensation due and owing
to the Employee under this Agreement, which has not been cured by the Employer within 30 days of receipt of written notice from the Employee that such nonpayment has occurred.



6. Section 8 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended by deleting subsection (a) in its entirety and substituting the
following:



(a) While Employee is
employed and for one (1) year after the termination of Employees employment for any reason, without the written consent of the Employer, Employee shall not either directly or indirectly engage (whether for his own account or as a partner,
joint venturer, employee, consultant, agent, contractor, officer, director or shareholder or otherwise) in any business within the United States which delivers preferred provider organization or claims repricing services on behalf of health care
payors or networks; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit Employee from purchasing and owning securities of a company traded on a national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market with which Employee has
no relationship so long as such ownership does not exceed 2% of the outstanding stock of such company.



7. Section 13 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the address of Employer and substituting the following therefor:
