 (v) Assistant acknowledges and agrees
that the restrictions contained in this Section 4(d) with respect to time, geographical area, and scope of activity are reasonable and do not impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill and other legitimate
business interests of the Company and that Assistant has had the opportunity to review the provisions of this Agreement with his legal counsel. In particular, Assistant agrees and acknowledges that the Company is currently engaging in business and
actively marketing its services and products throughout the Applicable Area, the Company expends significant time and effort developing and protecting the confidentiality of its methods of doing business, technology, Client lists, long term Client
relationships and trade secrets and such methods, technology, Client lists, Client relationships and trade secrets have significant value. However, if, at the time of enforcement of this Section 4(d), a court holds that the duration,
geographical area or scope of activity restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing or impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill and other business interests of the Company, the Parties
agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court will be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum
duration, scope and area permitted by law, in all cases giving effect to the intent of the parties that the restrictions contained herein be given effect to the broadest extent possible. The existence of any claim or cause of action by Assistant
against the Company or any of its affiliates, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, will not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of the provisions of Sections 4(a), (b), (c) or this
Section 4(d), which Sections will be enforceable notwithstanding the existence of any breach by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Assistant will not be prohibited from pursuing such claims or causes of action against the
Company. Assistant consents to the Company notifying any future employer of Assistant of Assistant’s obligations under Sections 4(a), (b), (c) or this Section 4(d) of this Agreement. 

(vi) In the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Assistant of any of the provisions of Sections 4(a), (b), (c) or
this Section 4(d), the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in addition and supplementary to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, will be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a
court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by the Assistant of this
Section 4(d), the Restricted Period will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. 
 (vii) If
either party (A) brings any action or proceeding to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to obtain damages as a result of a breach of this Agreement or to enjoin any breach of this Agreement and (B) prevails in such action or
proceeding, then the non-prevailing party will, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to the prevailing party, reimburse the prevailing party for any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by
the prevailing party in connection with such action or proceeding. 

 5. Assistant’s Representations. Assistant hereby represents and warrants to the Company
that (a) he has entered into this Agreement of his own free will for no consideration other than as referred to herein, (b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Assistant does not and will not conflict with,

applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any action in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction

 10. Complete Agreement. This Agreement
embodies the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties or any of their Subsidiaries, written or oral, which may have related to
the subject matter hereof in any way. Assistant acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement supersedes and preempts any other agreements between ASHI, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries and Assistant or any other entities that Assistant owns
an interest in or is an officer or director of, including but not limited to, (a) that certain Agreement dated as of November 18, 2005 between American Surgical Assistants, Inc. and Assistant (the “Employment Agreement”),
and (b) that certain Service/Consultant Agreement dated as of November 20, 2005 between American Surgical Assistants, Inc., Katy Surgical Assistants, Inc. (“KSI”) and Assistant, as amended (the “Service
Agreement”). In the event that the Service Agreement and the Employment Agreement are not terminated prior to the Effective 

 
Date, Assistant agrees to cause their termination on the Effective Date. Upon the Effective Date, Assistant hereby releases Parent, ASHI, American Surgical Assistants, Inc., the Company, their
Subsidiaries and all of their affiliates and waives any claims or rights the Assistant or KSI may have under the Employment Agreement, the Service Agreement or any other prior or existing agreement or understanding that either of them or their
affiliates have or had with Parent, ASHI, the Company or any of their affiliates or predecessors, including, but not limited to, any claim for any termination fee, severance, bonus or other benefits. 

11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including by facsimile signature pages), each of which is deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement. 
 12. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto
jointly participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their collective mutual intent, this Agreement will be construed as
if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. 
 13. Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Assistant, the Company and their respective heirs, successors and assigns. Assistant may not assign his rights or delegate his duties or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company. On the Effective Date ASHI will succeed to all of the Company’s rights and obligations hereunder and all references herein to the Company still refer to ASHI. The Company may assign
its rights and obligations hereunder (including, without limitation its rights under Section 4(d)), without the consent of, or notice to, Assistant, to any of the Company’s affiliates or to any Person that acquires the Company or
any portion of its business or its assets, in which case all references to the Company will refer to such assignee. 
 14. Choice of Law;
Exclusive Venue. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL ISSUES AND QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
TEXAS, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW RULES OR PROVISIONS (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF TEXAS OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF TEXAS. THE
PARTIES AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES, LEGAL ACTIONS, SUITS AND PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE BROUGHT EXCLUSIVELY IN A FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF THE STATE OF TEXAS (COLLECTIVELY THE
“DESIGNATED COURTS”). EACH PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE DESIGNATED COURTS. NO LEGAL ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY OTHER FORUM. EACH PARTY
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS OF IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION AND ANY OBJECTION WHICH SUCH PARTY MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY DESIGNATED COURT, INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO OBJECT ON THE
BASIS THAT ANY DISPUTE, ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN THE DESIGNATED COURTS HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM OR VENUE. 
 15. Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. THE COMPANY AND ASSISTANT EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS
AGREEMENT IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OTHER SUCH PARTY, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS,

 
TORT CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE. THE COMPANY AND THE ASSISTANT EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION WILL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE
PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER WILL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. 
 16. Business Days. If any time period for giving notice or taking action hereunder expires on a day which is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the state in which the Company’s
chief-executive office is located, the time period shall automatically be extended to the business day immediately following such Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. 
 17. Effective Date. This Agreement will become effective on the Effective Date. If for any reason, the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Date, then this Agreement will not be
effective and will be of no force or effect. 
 18. Withholding. The Company will, when and only to the extent required by law, be
entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing to the Assistant any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) imposed with respect to the Assistant’s compensation or
other payments from the Company or the Assistant’s ownership interest in the Company or its parent (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted
equity). In the event the Company does not make such deductions or withholdings, the Assistant will indemnify and hold harmless the Company for any amounts paid with respect to any such Taxes. 

21. Waiver of Statutory Limitations Periods. Assistant agrees that any claim against the Company relating to the employment relationship between
the Company and the Assistant (including the termination of the employment relationship) must be brought against the Company within 180 days of the event giving rise to the claim, or within the applicable statutory limitations period (whichever
period is shorter), or else Assistant’s claim is forever barred. 
 22. Condition to Seeking Subsequent Employment. Assistant agrees
to show a copy of Sections 4(a), (c), and (d) of this Agreement to any Person with whom Assistant interviews during Assistant’s employment with the Company, or with whom Assistant interviews within twelve
(12) months following the effective date of the termination of Assistant’s employment with the Company. 
 23. Amendment and
Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company and the Assistant, and no course of conduct or course of dealing or failure or delay by any Party hereto in enforcing or
exercising any of the provisions of this Agreement will affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or be deemed to be an implied waiver of any provision of this Agreement.
