 Exhibit 10.16.1 

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of January 1, 2012, is entered into by and between GRAYMARK HEALTHCARE, INC., an Oklahoma corporation (the
“Company”) and EDWARD M. CARRIERO, JR. (“Executive”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to continue to employ
the Executive and the Executive desires to continue to serve the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, the Executive has served as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer pursuant to the terms and conditions of an employment agreement made effective October 7, 2010 (the “Prior
Employment Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend and restate the Prior Employment Agreement in its
entirety. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants set forth below, the parties hereby agree
as follows: 
 1. Employment. The Company hereby employs the Executive as an employee and the Executive hereby accepts
such employment subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the employment relationships of the Executive with the Company are “at will” and either can terminate this Agreement
with or without cause as provided in this agreement. The Executive acknowledges that the Company operates in Minnesota and Oklahoma City and that he will spend a significant portion of his time in these locations, however, he will not be required to
relocate from his existing residence in Pembroke Pines, Florida. 
 2. Executive’s Duties. Executive is employed on
a full-time basis. Executive will serve as Senior Vice President of Corporate Development of the Company. During the Employment Period, Executive will report directly to the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”). Executive shall perform all
services reasonably required to fully execute the duties and responsibilities associated with the Company and its affiliates. Executive will devote substantially all of his working time, attention and energies (other than absences due to illness or
vacation) to the performance of his duties for the Company. Notwithstanding the above, Executive will be permitted, to the extent such activities do not interfere with the performance by Executive of his duties and responsibilities under this
Agreement or violate this Agreement, to (i) manage Executive’s personal, financial and legal affairs, and (ii) serve on industry, civic or charitable boards or committees. 

3. Executive’s Compensation. 
 (a) Base Salary. During the Employment Period (as defined in Section 4 below), the Company will pay Executive an annual base salary (“Base Salary”) of not less than Two Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($200,000) in approximate equal installments in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices. Executive’s Base Salary may be increased, but not decreased, pursuant to annual review by the Company’s
Compensation Committee. In the event Executive’s Base Salary is increased, the increased amount will then constitute the Base Salary for all purposes of this Agreement. 

 (b) Stock Option Award. Upon execution of the Prior Employment Agreement,
Executive was awarded stock options exercisable for the purchase of Fifty Thousand (50,000) common stock shares of the Company for the closing sale price on the date of grant (or, if not available on that date, the most recently reported
closing sale price) in accordance with the Graymark Healthcare, Inc. 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“Long-Term Incentive Plan”) (or a substitute or successor plan). 
 (c) Benefits. During the Employment Period, Executive (and his spouse and/or dependents to the extent provided in the applicable plans and programs) will be entitled to participate in and be
covered under all the welfare benefit plans or programs maintained by the Company for the benefit of its senior executive officers pursuant to the terms of such plans and programs including, without limitation, all medical, life, hospitalization,
dental, disability, accidental death and dismemberment and travel accident insurance plans and programs. In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive will be eligible to participate in all pension, retirement, savings and other employee
benefit plans and programs maintained from time to time by the Company for the benefit of its senior executive officers. 

(d) Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to at least twenty (20) business days of paid vacation for each calendar year
during the Employment Period. Executive may use his vacation in a reasonable manner based upon the business needs of the Company. Unused vacation days will accrue from year to year without limitation. 

(e) Fringe Benefits. During the Employment Period, the Company will provide Executive with such other fringe benefits as
commensurate with Executive’s position. 
 (f) Reimbursement. Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for
all reasonable expenses, including travel and entertainment, incurred by Executive in the performance of his duties. Executive will maintain records and written receipt as required by the Company policy and reasonably requested by the Company to
substantiate such expenses. 
 4. Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Executive’s
employment may be terminated at any time by GRMH or the Executive with or without cause, subject to the terms and conditions of Sections 4, 5 and 6. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Employment Period” is the period that commences on
the date hereof and ends on the date of termination of this Agreement. 
 (a) Death. Executive’s employment
under this Agreement will terminate upon his death. 
 (b) Disability. If, as a result of Executive’s
incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Executive is substantially unable to perform his duties under this Agreement (with or without reasonable accommodation, as defined under the Americans With Disabilities Act) for an entire period of six
(6) consecutive months, and within thirty (30) days after a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 5(a)) is given after such six (6) month period, and Executive does not return to the substantial performance of his
duties on a full-time basis, the Company has the right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement for “Disability,” and such termination will not be a breach of this Agreement by the Company. 

  
 2 

 (c) Cause. The Company has the right to terminate Executive’s employment
for Cause, and such termination will not be a breach of this Agreement by the Company. “Cause” means termination of employment for one of the following reasons: (i) the conviction of Executive by a federal or state court of competent
jurisdiction or a plea of guilty or no contest to a felony which relates to the Executive’s employment at the Company;; (ii) an act or acts of dishonesty taken by Executive and intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of
Executive at the expense of the Company or any affiliate; or (iii) Executive’s “willful” failure to follow a direct lawful written order from the CEO, within the reasonable scope of Executive’s duties, which failure is not
cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice specifically identifying said failure. For purposes of this Subsection (c), no act or failure to act on Executive’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done or
omitted to be done by Executive, not in good faith and without reasonable belief that Executive’s action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. 
 (d) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment with the Company for “Good Reason.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence without
the written consent of Executive, of one of the events set forth below: 
 (1) a material diminution in the
Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities; 
 (2) the reduction by the Company of Executive’s Base
Salary; 
 (3) any requirement that Executive relocate from his residence in Pembroke Pines, Florida; or 

(4) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of this Agreement. 

The Executive must provide notice to the Company of the existence of one of the conditions described above within ninety (90) days of the
Executive’s discovery of the existence of the condition. The Company has a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Executive to remedy the situation. If the Company fails to remedy the condition, the Executive
may terminate his employment for Good Reason by providing a Notice of Termination to the Company within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the Company’s period to remedy the condition. Termination for Good Reason by the Executive will
not be a breach of this Agreement and will entitle Executive to the Compensation and benefits described in Section 6(a) hereof. 
 (e) Without Cause. The Company has the right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement without Cause by providing Executive with a Notice of Termination, subject to the
obligations set forth in Section 6(a) hereof. 
 (f) Voluntary Termination. Executive may voluntarily
terminate employment with the Company at any time, and if such termination is not for Good Reason, then Executive shall only be entitled to compensation and benefits as described in Section 6(b) hereof. 

5. Termination Procedure. 
 (a) Notice of Termination. Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or by Executive during the Employment Period (other than termination pursuant to
Section 4(a)) will be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party in accordance with Section 10. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice which indicates
the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment. 

  
 3 

 (b) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” shall mean (i) if
Executive’s employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death, (ii) if Executive’s employment is terminated due to Disability pursuant to Section 4(b), thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination (provided
that Executive has not returned to the substantial performance of his duties on a full-time basis during such thirty (30) day period), (iii) if Executive’s employment is terminated for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(d),
the date on which a Notice of Termination provided in accordance with such Section is given or any later date (within thirty (30) days after the giving of such Notice of Termination) set forth in such Notice of Termination, or (iv) if
Executive’s employment is terminated for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination is given or any later date (within thirty (30) days after the giving of such Notice of Termination) set forth in such Notice of
Termination. 
 6. Compensation Upon Termination or During Disability. In the event of Executive’s Disability or
termination of his employment under this Agreement during the Employment Period, the Company will provide Executive with the payments and benefits set forth below. 
 (a) Termination by Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason: 

(i) the Company will pay to Executive within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination in a single lump sum payment
(A) his earned but unpaid Base Salary and accrued vacation pay through the Date of Termination and (B) an amount equal to his then Base Salary less all applicable federal and state payroll tax withholdings (if any); 

(ii) the Company will maintain in full force and effect, for the continued benefit of Executive (and his spouse and/or his
dependents, as applicable) for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Date of Termination, the medical, hospitalization, and dental programs in which Executive (and his spouse and/or his dependents, as applicable) participated
immediately prior to the Date of Termination, at the level in effect and upon substantially the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, contributions required by Executive for such benefits) as existed immediately prior to the Date
of Termination; provided, if Executive (or his spouse) is eligible for Medicare or a similar type of governmental medical benefit, such benefit shall be the primary provider before Company medical benefits are provided. However, if Executive becomes
reemployed with another employer and is eligible to receive medical, hospitalization and dental benefits under another employer-provided plan, the medical, hospitalization and dental benefits described herein shall be secondary to those provided
under such other plan during the applicable period; 
 (iii) the Company will reimburse Executive, pursuant to the
Company’s policy, for reasonable business expenses incurred, but not paid, prior to the Date of Termination; 

(iv) Executive will be entitled to any other rights, compensation and/or benefits as may be due to Executive following such
termination to which he is otherwise entitled in accordance with the terms and provisions of any plans or programs of the Company; and 
 (v) all unvested stock options issued to Executive pursuant to the Long-Term Incentive Plan shall vest immediately prior to the Date of Termination and be exercisable by Executive for one
(1) year after the Termination Date. 

  
 4 

 Provided however, no payment under this Section 6(a) shall be due or payable to Executive after
the Termination Date in the event that Executive shall assert or claim that any part of this Agreement (including but not limited to Sections 8, 9, or 11) is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part. 

(b) Termination by Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the
Company for Cause or by Executive (other than for Good Reason): 
 (i) the Company will pay Executive his earned but
unpaid Base Salary and his accrued vacation pay (to the extent required by law or the Company’s vacation policy) through the Date of Termination, within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination; 

(ii) the Company will reimburse Executive, pursuant to the Company’s policy, for reasonable business expenses incurred, but
not paid, prior to the Date of Termination, unless such termination resulted from a misappropriation of Company funds; and 

(iii) Executive will be entitled to any other rights, compensation and/or benefits as may be due to Executive following termination
to which he is otherwise entitled in accordance with the terms and provisions of any plans or programs of the Company. 

(c) Disability. During any period that Executive fails to perform his duties under this Agreement as a result of incapacity
due to physical or mental illness (“Disability Period”), Executive will continue to receive his full Base Salary set forth in Section 3(a) until his employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4(b). In the event Executive’s
employment is terminated for Disability pursuant to Section 4(b): 
 (i) the Company will (A) pay to Executive
his earned but unpaid Base Salary and accrued vacation pay through the Date of Termination, within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination, and (B) provide Executive with disability benefits pursuant to the terms of the Company’s
disability programs and/or practices, if any; 
 (ii) the Company will reimburse Executive, pursuant to the Company’s
policy, for reasonable business expenses incurred, but not paid, prior to the Date of Termination; and 
 (iii) Executive
will be entitled to any other rights, compensation and/or benefits as may be due to Executive following such termination to which he is otherwise entitled in accordance with the terms and provisions of any plans or programs of the Company.

 (d) Death. If Executive’s employment is terminated by his death, the Company will pay in a lump sum to
Executive’s beneficiary, or personal or legal representatives or estate, as the case may be, Executive’s earned but unpaid Base Salary as of the date of death, accrued vacation and unreimbursed business expenses and amounts due under any
plans, programs or arrangements of the Company through the Date of Termination.

 7. Confidential Information; Non-Solicitation. 

(a) Nondisclosure of Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that it is the policy of the Company to maintain as
secret and confidential (i) all valuable and unique information, (ii) other information heretofore or hereafter acquired by the Company, or any affiliated entity and deemed by it to be confidential, and (iii) information developed or
used by the Company or any affiliated entity relating to the business, operations, employees and customers of the Company or any affiliated entity including, but not limited to, any customer lists or employee information (all such information
described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, other than information which is known to the public or becomes known to the public through no fault of Executive, is hereinafter referred to as “Confidential Information”). The
parties recognize that the services to be performed by Executive pursuant to this Agreement are special and unique and that by reason of his employment by the Company after the date hereof, Executive has acquired and will acquire Confidential
Information. Executive recognizes that all such Confidential Information is the property of the Company. Accordingly, at any time during or after the Employment Period, Executive shall not, except in the proper performance of his duties under this
Agreement, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, disclose to any Person other than the Company, whether or not such Person is a competitor of the Company, and shall use his best efforts to prevent the publication
or disclosure of any Confidential Information obtained by, or which has come to the knowledge of, Executive prior or subsequent to the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may disclose to other Persons, as part of his occupation,
information with respect to the Company or any affiliated entity, which (i) is of a type generally not considered by standards of the healthcare industry to be proprietary, or (ii) is otherwise consented to in writing by the Company.

 (b) Non-Solicitation. Executive shall not, during the Employment Period or for two years following his Date of
Termination (the “Covered Period”), either personally or by or through his agent or by letters, circulars or advertisements and whether for himself or on behalf of any other person, directly or indirectly, seek to persuade any employee,
contractor, customer, vendor or subcontractor of the Company, or any affiliated entity or any person who was an employee, contractor, customer, vendor or subcontractor of the Company or any affiliated entity during the Covered Period, to
discontinue, breach or terminate his or her employment, contract, or relationship with the Company, or such affiliated entity or to become employed or engaged in a business or activities likely to be competitive with the Company, or any affiliated
entity. 
 (c) Obligations of Executive Upon Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason,
Executive shall return to the Company all documents and copies of documents in his possession relating to any Confidential Information including, but not limited to, internal and external business forms, manuals, correspondence, notes and computer
programs, and Executive shall not make or retain any copy or extract of any of the foregoing. In addition, Executive shall resign from all positions held with the Company or any affiliated entities. 

(d) Remedies. Executive acknowledges and understands that Sections 7(a), 7(b) and 7(c) and the other provisions
of this Agreement are of a special and unique nature, the loss of which cannot be adequately compensated for in damages by an action at law, and that the breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement would cause the Company
irreparable harm. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Executive of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining him from such breach. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed
as prohibiting the Company from pursuing, or limiting the Company’s ability to pursue, any other remedies available for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by Executive. The provision of this Agreement relating to arbitration of
disputes shall not be applicable to the Company to the extent it seeks an injunction in any court to restrain Executive from violating Sections 7(a), 7(b) and 7(c) hereof. 

(e) Continuing Operation. Except as specifically provided in this Section 7, the termination of Executive’s
employment or of this Agreement will have no effect on the continuing operation of this Section 7. 

  
 6 

 (f) Additional Related Agreements. Executive agrees to sign and to abide by the
provisions of any additional agreements, policies or requirements of the Company related to the subject of this Section 7 which are in writing and are developed by the Company in the ordinary course of business, provided, however, that
such agreements, policies or requirements do not expand the scope and/or limitations of Section 7. 
 8.
Condition. Executive agrees, if his employment is terminated under circumstances entitling him to payments under Section 6(a) of this Agreement, as a condition precedent to the right to receive the payments set forth under
Section 6(a), he will execute a waiver and release, through which Executive releases the Company and its governing body, from any and all claims which the Executive has or may have, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, other
than as to the right to receive payments as provided in Section 6(a). 
 9. Indemnification and Insurance.
Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company during the term of this Agreement and following any termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever in the same manner as would any other key management employee of the Company
with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to (a) the termination of this Agreement or (b) the termination of employment of Executive. In addition, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of five years following the
termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, Executive shall be covered by a Company held liability insurance policy, with limits no less than those in force during the term of this Agreement, covering acts or omissions occurring prior
to (i) the termination of this Agreement or (ii) the termination of employment of the Executive. 
 10.
Arbitration; Legal Fees and Expenses. The parties agree that Executive’s employment and this Agreement relate to interstate commerce, and that any disputes, claims or controversies between Executive and the Company which may arise out of
or relate to Executive’s employment relationship or this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Any arbitration shall be in accordance with the Rules of the
American Arbitration Association and undertaken pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. Arbitration will be held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma unless the parties mutually agree on another location. The decision of the arbitrator(s) will be enforceable
in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that punitive, liquidated or indirect damages shall not be awarded by the arbitrator(s) unless such damages would have been awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this
agreement to arbitrate, however, shall preclude the Company from obtaining injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting any ongoing breaches by Executive of this Agreement including, without limitation, violations of
Section 7. If any contest or dispute arises between the Company and Executive regarding any provision of this Agreement, the arbitrator shall award to the prevailing party, the reasonable attorney fees, costs and expenses incurred by the
prevailing party in connection with such contest or dispute.

 Exhibit 10.21 
 GRAYMARK HEALTHCARE, INC. 
 CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD AGREEMENT

 This Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of July 1, 2011, by and between Graymark
Healthcare, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (the “Company”), and Jamie Hopping (“Hopping”). 
 1.
Relationship. During the term of this Agreement, Hopping will serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. Hopping will be a non-executive chair and will not have responsibility for day-to-day operations at the
Company, which are reserved for the Chief Executive Officer and the other elected officers. The Company expects Hopping to provide services in her capacity as Chairman of the Board including: (a) providing strategic advice and counsel to the
Chief Executive Officer; (b) provide general advice on best practices in healthcare services industry; (c) provide commercial introductions to the Company in order to assist the Company in expanding sales to hospitals and other healthcare
service providers; (d) providing insight into hospital practices and practices of healthcare service providers; (e) providing those services customarily consistent with the position of Chairman of the Board; and (f) those services
that are described or otherwise consistent with the Company’s by-laws (collectively, the “Services”). Hopping represents that she has the qualifications, the experience and the ability to properly serve as the Company’s
Chairman. Hopping shall use her best efforts to perform the Services such that the results are satisfactory to the Company. Hopping shall devote at such time and attention to performance of the Services as is required to satisfactorily perform such
Services, but shall have no minimum time commitments. 
 2. Fees. The Company shall compensate Hopping with a cash
payment of $10,000 per month. In connection with this Agreement, Hopping acknowledges that the Company has granted Hopping a non-qualified stock option grant covering 175,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Hopping shall not be entitled
to annual grants to non-employee directors of the Company unless specifically authorized by the Board or Compensation Committee thereof. 
 3. Expenses. Hopping shall not be authorized to incur on behalf of the Company any expenses and will be responsible for all expenses incurred while performing the Services unless otherwise
agreed to by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, which consent shall be evidenced in writing for any expenses in excess of $1,000. In addition, Hopping shall be entitled to reimbursement for travel expenses related to attendance in person at
meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company or any committee there on which she sits. As a condition to receipt of reimbursement, Hopping shall be required to submit to the Company reasonable evidence that the amount involved was both
reasonable and necessary to the Services provided under this Agreement. 
 4. Term and Termination. Hopping shall
serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company for a period commencing on July 1, 2011 and terminating on June 30, 2012 or her earlier of death, resignation or removal. The Company may extend the term of this Agreement by
written notice to Hopping. Termination of this Agreement does not have the effect of Hopping’s removal as a director of the Company. 

 Notwithstanding the above, the Hopping may terminate this Agreement at any time upon 60
business days’ written notice. In the event of such termination, Hopping shall be paid through the date of termination. The Company may remove Hopping as Chairman and/or as a director in accordance with the by-laws of the Company then in
effect. 
 Should either party default in the performance of this Agreement or materially breach any of its obligations under
this Agreement, including but not limited to Hopping’s obligation to perform the Services and comply with the Company’s policies and procedures, the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement immediately if the breaching party fails
to cure the breach within 10 business days after having received written notice by the non-breaching party of the breach or default. 
 5. Independent Director. Hopping’s relationship with the Company will be that of an independent director and not that of an employee, consultant or other similar position. Hopping shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or refrain from taking, all actions which will enable Hopping to continue to serve as an independent director of the Company’s Board and as a member of the Audit Committee thereof in accordance with
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Nasdaq Stock Market. 
 6. No Authority to
Bind Company. Hopping acknowledges and agrees that Hopping has no authority to enter into contracts that bind the Company or create obligations on the part of the Company without the prior written authorization of the Company. 

7. Withholding; Indemnification. The Company shall have the right to withhold the applicable withholding taxes for all
compensation paid to Hopping under this Agreement 
 8. Consulting or Other Services for Competitors. Hopping
represents and warrants that Hopping does not presently perform or intend to perform, during the term of the Agreement, consulting or other services for, or engage in or intend to engage in an employment relationship with, companies who businesses
or proposed businesses in any way involve products or services which would be competitive with the Company’s products or services, or those products or services proposed or in development by the Company during the term of the Agreement. If,
however, Hopping decides to do so, Hopping agrees that, in advance of accepting such work, Hopping will promptly notify the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company in writing, specifying the
organization with which Hopping proposes to consult, provide services, or become employed by and to provide information sufficient to allow the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company to determine if
such work would conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the interests of the Company. If the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company determines that such work conflicts with the terms of this
Agreement, the Company reserves the right to terminate this Agreement immediately. In no event shall any of the Services be performed for the Company at the facilities of a third party or using the resources of a third party.

and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
