Beta shall cause the Beta Bylaws to be amended effective as of the First Merger Effective Time in accordance with Section 5.13 to effect the requirements of this Section 1.6. If, following the Closing, any Continuing Beta Director resigns or is unable to serve for any other reason prior to the first anniversary following the next annual meeting (in each case, a “Removed Designee”), then, in each case, the remaining Continuing Beta Director (if any) shall recommend a replacement for such Removed Designee to the Governance, Compliance and Nominating Committee of the Beta Board, which shall consider such replacement (and, if not approved by such committee, any additional replacements recommended by the remaining Continuing Beta Director) in good faith.

(b) The Merger Consideration issued in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Omega Common Stock formerly held by Omega Parent.

NO SUCH SALE, DISTRIBUTION OR OTHER TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

Section 2.3 Escrowed Shares. In addition to the issuance of Beta Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1, at the First Merger Effective Time, and without any action on the part of any party to this Agreement or any of their respective equity holders, Beta shall issue (or cause to be issued) to Omega Parent, a number of shares of Beta Common Stock equal to (i) the maximum number of shares of Beta Common Stock issuable in respect of the Beta Contingent RSUs, as of the Capitalization Date, which is equal to 7,270,095 shares of Beta Common Stock (as may be adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, exchange, subdivision or combination) multiplied by (ii) 3.878 (as may be adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, exchange, subdivision or combination) (collectively, the “Escrowed Beta Shares”) (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that Beta shall not be required to issue any shares of Beta Common Stock to Omega Parent in the event that the Closing does not occur). Unless and until an Escrowed Beta Share is transferred to Beta and retired as may be required by this Section 2.3, (i) Omega Parent shall be the record owner of such share, entitled to vote and receive any dividends payable in respect thereof and (ii) Omega Parent shall not be entitled to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber in any manner such Escrowed Beta Share and such Escrowed Beta Share shall bear a restrictive legend to that effect (the “Transfer Restriction”) until such Transfer Restriction no longer applies as provided below. At the end of each month following the Closing, Omega Parent shall transfer to Beta for no consideration, and Beta shall immediately retire, a number of Escrowed Beta Shares (rounded up to the nearest whole share of Beta Common Stock) equal to (i) the number of Beta Contingent RSUs (as may be adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, exchange, subdivision or combination) that Expired during the preceding month without having Vested and without being paid or having any shares delivered in respect thereof, multiplied by (ii) 3.878 (as may be adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, exchange, subdivision or combination). At the Closing and at the end of each month following the Closing, the Transfer Restriction (and any related restrictive legend) shall no longer apply to a number of Escrowed Beta Shares (rounded down to the next whole share of Beta Common Stock) equal to (i) the number of Beta Contingent RSUs (as may be adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, exchange, subdivision or combination) that Vested or that were paid or had shares delivered in respect thereof during the preceding month (or in the case of the Closing, prior to the Closing) multiplied by (ii) 3.878 (as may be adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, exchange, subdivision or combination). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of pending or threatened RSU Dispute, Omega Parent shall not be required under this Section 2.3 to transfer nor shall Beta retire any Escrowed Beta Shares that could be expected to no longer be subject to the Transfer Restriction and the disposition of such shares will be resolved in connection with such RSU Dispute being dismissed with prejudice or resolved pursuant to a settlement agreement (that is subject to Section 2.6) or final, non-appealable court order. It being the intent of this provision to protect Omega Parent from dilution as a result of any Beta Contingent RSUs becoming Vested or any shares of Beta Common Stock being issued in respect thereof, in the event that any Escrowed Beta Shares were transferred to Beta for no consideration and retired pursuant to this Section 2.3, and following such transfer an Action related to the Beta Contingent RSUs results in final, non-appealable court order, dismissal with prejudice or settlement (that is subject to Section 2.6) that results in any Beta Contingent Stock becoming Vested or any shares of Beta Common Stock being issued in respect thereof, then Beta shall issue to Omega Parent the number of Beta Common Shares that would have no longer been subject to the Transfer Restriction as a result of such vesting had such Escrowed Beta Shares not been transferred to Beta. For purposes of this Agreement, the term (i) “Beta Contingent RSUs” means shares of Beta Common Stock that are issued in respect of, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Beta RSUs set forth on Section 2.3 of the Beta Disclosure Letter; (ii) “Vested” shall mean, with respect to a Beta Contingent RSU, to vest and become non-forfeitable in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Beta Stock Plans, grant agreement, award agreement and/or other Contract(s) governing the terms of such Beta Contingent RSU; and (iii) “Expired” shall mean, with respect to a Beta Contingent RSU, to expire and no longer be capable of vesting or being converted into Beta Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Beta Stock Plans, grant agreement, award agreement and/or other Contract(s) governing the terms of such Beta Contingent RSU; provided, that, in the event the a court has finally determined that any Beta Contingent RSUs have Vested or Expired or such determination is agreed in a settlement (that is subject to Section 2.6), such determination of such court or settlement shall be final and binding for purposes of determining what is Vested or Expired under this Section 2.3.

Section 2.4 Second Merger Conversion of Capital Stock. At the Second Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of Omega, Omega Parent, Beta, Merger Sub Inc., Merger Sub LLC or the holders of any shares of capital stock of Omega, Omega Parent, Beta or Merger Sub LLC, each share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Merger Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor, and Beta shall become the sole member of the Surviving Company.

Section 2.5 Withholding. None of Beta, Merger Sub Inc., Merger Sub LLC, Omega, Omega Parent, the Surviving Corporation nor the Surviving Company shall be entitled to deduct or withhold or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of shares of Omega Common Stock or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement under this Agreement except to the extent (a) required by (i) applicable Tax Law or (ii) Omega’s failure to deliver the statement described under Section 6.2(e) and (b) any amounts so withheld or deducted are timely paid to the appropriate Governmental Entity; provided, that the parties acknowledge that they do not currently anticipate that any deduction or withholding of U.S. federal income tax will be required in respect of the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of shares of Omega Common Stock (assuming the statement described in Section 6.2(e) is provided); provided, further, that if any such party reasonably believes that any withholding or deduction is required with respect to any consideration otherwise payable to any holder of shares of Omega Common Stock or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, then it shall give written notice to the payee at least five (5) Business Days prior to making such payment (which notice shall include a reference to the applicable provision of Tax Law pursuant to which such withholding or deduction is required and a calculation of the required withholding amount) and it shall provide such payee a reasonable opportunity to provide any applicable certificates, forms or documentation that would reduce or eliminate, and will otherwise reasonably cooperate with the payee and take such steps as payee may reasonably request to reduce or eliminate such withholding or deduction requirement. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and timely paid to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 2.6 RSU Disputes. After the First Merger Effective Time, the Compensation Committee of the Beta Board (the “Compensation Committee”), which shall include one Continuing Beta Director as long as any Continuing Beta Director remains on the Beta Board, shall be responsible (as between the Beta Board and the Compensation Committee) for controlling, on behalf of Beta, the management and disposition of any RSU Dispute, including with respect to the investigation, prosecution, negotiation, resolution or settlement thereof, and all decisions relating thereto, and all actions and inactions with respect to the RSU Dispute shall be made solely by the Compensation Committee with the consent of the Continuing Beta Director that sits on the Compensation Committee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to obtaining the Beta Stockholder Approval and following compliance with this Section 5.2(c), the Beta Board may, if it determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, make an Adverse Recommendation Change (1) in connection with a Superior Proposal or (2) in response to an event, occurrence, development or state of facts or circumstances occurring after the date hereof that was neither known to, or reasonably foreseeable by, the Beta Board prior to the date hereof and does not relate, directly or indirectly, to any Acquisition Proposal; provided, that prior to effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change, (i) Beta shall notify Omega Parent and Omega in writing, at least five (5) Business Days prior to effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change (the “Notice Period”), of its intention to effect such Adverse Recommendation Change (which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for the Adverse Recommendation Change and, if such Adverse Recommendation Change is based upon receipt of a Superior Proposal, shall include the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and the identity of the Person making such Superior Proposal and include copies of the current drafts of all material agreements between such party and the party making such Superior Proposal and any other material documents or agreements that relate to such Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that such notice or the public disclosure by such party of such notice shall not in and of itself constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change)), (ii) during the Notice Period, Beta shall negotiate with Omega Parent and Omega in good faith (to the extent Omega Parent and Omega wish to negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change would no longer reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of such board of directors under applicable Law, and (iii) the Beta Board shall determine, after the close of business on the last day of the Notice Period, in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and after giving effect to any adjustments proposed by the other party in writing during the Notice Period) that failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Beta Board under applicable Law; provided, however, that in the event of any material change to the material terms of such Superior Proposal, Beta shall, in each case, have delivered to Omega Parent and Omega an additional notice consistent with that described in clause (i) above and the Notice Period shall have recommenced (in which case such Notice Period shall be for three (3) Business Days instead of five (5) Business Days).

(d) Beta or Omega, as applicable, shall promptly (and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) notify the other party after it or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives has received any Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer to enter into or seeking to have discussions or negotiations relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal. Such notice to the other party shall indicate the identity of the Person making and include the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal or offer (including a complete copy thereof if in writing and any related documents or correspondence). Following the date hereof, each party shall keep the other party reasonably informed orally and in writing on a current basis (and in any event, no later than one (1) Business Day) of any material developments, discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal including providing a copy of all material documentation (including drafts) or material correspondence with respect thereto and upon the request of such other party shall apprise the other party of the status and details of such Acquisition Proposal. Each party agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not enter into any agreement with any Person subsequent to the date hereof which prohibits such party from providing any information to the other party in accordance with, or from otherwise complying with the terms of, this Section 5.2.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 5.2 shall prohibit Beta or the Beta Board from (i) issuing a “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or taking and disclosing a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the Exchange Act, or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of Beta if, in the good faith judgment of the Beta Board (after consultation with outside counsel), failure to so disclose would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. Any disclosures referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not be deemed to constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change so long as such disclosure (A) includes the Beta Board Recommendation without any modification or qualification thereof or continues the prior recommendation of the Beta Board and (B) does not contain an express Adverse Recommendation Change; provided, that in no event shall this Section 5.2(e) affect either party’s obligations specified in Section 5.2(b).

(f) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Acquisition Proposal” means any proposal, offer, or inquiry from any Person or group of Persons relating to any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of transactions, including any merger, reorganization, share exchange, consolidation, tender offer, exchange offer, stock acquisition, asset acquisition, business combination, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture or similar transaction, (A) of or for assets or businesses of Beta and its Subsidiaries or Omega and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, that generate 20% or more of the net revenues or net income or that represent 20% or more of the consolidated total assets (based on fair market value) of Beta and its Subsidiaries or Omega and its Subsidiaries, respectively, taken as a whole, immediately prior to such transaction or (B) of or for 20% or more of any class of capital stock, other equity security or voting power of Beta or Omega (or any resulting parent company of Beta or Omega), in each case other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(ii) “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide written unsolicited Acquisition Proposal made after the date hereof (with all percentages included in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” increased to 50%), taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of the proposal, the Person making the proposal, all relevant the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, any changes to the terms of this Agreement offered by Omega Parent and Omega in response to such Acquisition Proposal, the anticipated timing, conditions and ability of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal to consummate the transactions contemplated by such Acquisition Proposal (including whether such Person is reasonably likely to have adequate sources of financing or adequate funds to consummate such Acquisition Proposal), that (A) if consummated, would be more favorable to the stockholders of Beta or stockholders of Omega, as applicable, from a financial point of view than the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any adjustment to the terms and conditions thereof proposed in writing by the other party in response to any such Acquisition Proposal) and (B) if accepted, is reasonably likely to be completed on the terms proposed on a timely basis.

Section 5.3 Preparation of Proxy Statement; Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than ten (10) days after the date Omega has provided the Pro Forma Financial Information in a form reasonably satisfactory to Beta, Beta shall (i) prepare (with Omega’s reasonable cooperation) and file with the SEC a proxy statement (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Proxy Statement” ) to be sent to the stockholders of Beta relating to the special meeting of Beta’s stockholders (the “Beta Stockholders Meeting”) to be held to consider the approval of the Beta Share Issuance, the Amended and Restated Beta Charter and the Beta Series A COD Amendment and (ii) in consultation with Omega, set a preliminary record date for the Beta Stockholders Meeting and commence a broker search pursuant to Section 14a 13 of the Exchange Act in connection therewith. As soon as reasonably practical after the date hereof (but in no event later than May 31, 2019 and, solely with respect to the financial statements set forth in clause (ii) of the definition of Pro Forma Financial Information below, if Beta has provided to Omega the Required Bank Information and, if the unaudited consolidated financial statements of either party are required to be included in the Proxy Statement, the Q1 Beta Trial Balance), Omega shall prepare and deliver to Beta (i) the audited consolidated balance sheet of Omega III and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2018, and the related audited consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and shareholder’s equity of Omega and its Subsidiaries, together with all related notes and schedules thereto, accompanied by the reports thereon of Omega’s independent auditors and (ii) unaudited pro forma financial statements for the Surviving Company including footnotes and management discussion and analysis sections, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), that are complaint with applicable Laws for inclusion in the Proxy Statement (clauses (i) and (ii) together, the “Pro Forma Financial Information”); provided, that Beta shall use its reasonable best efforts to, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives to use their reasonable best efforts to, provide to Omega such cooperation and documents as may be reasonably requested by Omega in connection with the preparation of the financial statements set forth in clause (ii) of the definition of Pro Forma Financial Information. Without limiting the foregoing, prior to the Closing, Omega shall use its reasonable best efforts to, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives to use their reasonable best efforts to, provide to Beta such cooperation and documents as may be reasonably requested by Beta in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will be made by Omega or Beta, as applicable, without providing the other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. If at any time prior to the First Merger Effective Time any information relating to Beta or Omega, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Beta or Omega that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Proxy Statement, so that any of such documents would not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall promptly be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required under applicable Law, disseminated to stockholders of Beta. Beta shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve all SEC comments, if any, with respect to the Proxy Statement as promptly as practicable after the receipt thereof.

(b) As promptly as practicable after (x) the 10-day waiting period under Rule 14a-6(a) under the Exchange Act and (y) the date on which the SEC confirms that it has no further comments on the Proxy Statement, Beta shall duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Beta Stockholders Meeting solely for the purpose of obtaining the Beta Stockholder Approval and, if applicable, the advisory vote required by Rule 14a-21(c) under the Exchange Act in connection therewith (and such Beta Stockholders Meeting shall in any event be no later than the twenty-first (21^st) Business Day after (i) the tenth (10^th) day after the preliminary Proxy Statement therefor has been filed with the SEC if by such date the SEC has not informed Beta that it intends to review the Proxy Statement or (ii) if the SEC has, by the tenth (10^th) day after the preliminary Proxy Statement therefor has been filed with the SEC, informed Beta that it intends to review the Proxy Statement, the date on which the SEC confirms that it has no further comments on the Proxy Statement). Beta may postpone or adjourn the Beta Stockholders Meeting solely (i) with the consent of Omega; (ii) (A) due to the absence of a quorum or (B) if Beta has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Beta Common Stock for the Beta Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, to solicit additional proxies; or (iii) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Beta Board has determined in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel is necessary under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by Beta’s stockholders prior to the Beta Stockholders Meeting. Without the prior written consent of Omega, the Beta Stockholder Meeting will not be postponed or adjourned by more than ten (10) days at a time. In no event will the record date of the Beta Stockholder Meeting be changed without Omega’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Beta shall, at the request of Omega, to the extent permitted by Law, adjourn the Beta Stockholders Meeting to a date specified by Omega for the absence of a quorum or if Beta has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Beta Common Stock for the Beta Stockholder Approval. Except in the case of an Adverse Recommendation Change specifically permitted by Section 5.2(b), Beta, through the Beta Board, shall (i) recommend to its stockholders that they adopt this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies to obtain the Beta Stockholder Approval.

Section 5.4 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Omega shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to Beta, Merger Sub Inc., Merger Sub LLC and their respective Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, during the period prior to the First Merger Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, to such books, records, information, properties and personnel regarding Omega and its Subsidiaries as shall be reasonably requested by Beta, Merger Sub Inc. and Merger Sub LLC; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require Omega to disclose any information to the extent such disclosure would contravene applicable Law or result in loss of legal protection, including attorney-client privilege (provided, that Omega shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide as much information as is reasonably practicable in light of such concerns or in such a manner as to not lose such legal protection).

(b) Beta shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to Omega and its Representatives and the Debt Financing Sources reasonable access during normal business hours, during the period prior to the First Merger Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, to such books, records, information, properties and personnel regarding Beta and its Subsidiaries as shall be reasonably requested by Omega; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require Beta to disclose any information to the extent such disclosure would contravene applicable Law or result in loss of legal protection, including attorney-client privilege (provided, that Beta shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide as much information as is reasonably practicable in light of such concerns or in such a manner as to not lose such legal protection).

(c) All such information shall be held confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement between BioScrip Infusion Services, Inc. and Option Care Enterprises, Inc. dated as of September 6, 2018 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

Section 5.5 Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of Beta and Omega agree to use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to accomplish the following: (i) obtain all required consents, approvals or waivers from, or participation in other discussions or negotiations with, third parties, including as required under any Beta Material Contract or Omega Material Contract, (ii) obtain all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, approvals, orders and authorizations from Governmental Entities, make all necessary registrations, declarations and filings and make all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid any Action by, any Governmental Entity, including filings under the HSR Act with the United States Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice, and (iii) execute and deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and fully to carry out the purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that neither Omega nor any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, nor Beta nor any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall commit to the payment of any fee, penalty or other consideration or make any other concession, waiver or amendment under any Contract in connection with obtaining any consent without the prior written consent of Beta, on the one hand, or Omega, on the other hand, (except for any standard fees required in connection with licensing or registrations applications or other filings required to effectuate the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Beta and Omega shall, promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following the date hereof, file with the United States Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice the Notification and Report Form required for the Mergers pursuant to the HSR Act, which Notification and Report Form shall request early termination. Beta and Omega shall furnish to each other party such necessary information and reasonable assistance as such other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing. Subject to applicable Law relating to the exchange of information, Beta and Omega shall each have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult with the other in connection with, all of the information relating to Beta or Omega, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries, that appears in any filing (except for the Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act) made with, or substantive written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing rights, each of Beta and Omega shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Subject to applicable Law and the instructions of any Governmental Entity, Omega and Beta shall keep each other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other substantive written communications received by Omega or Beta, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, from any Governmental Entity and/or third party with respect to such transactions, and, to the extent practicable under the circumstances, shall provide the other party and its counsel with the opportunity to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Subject to the following sentence of Section 5.5(b), Omega and Beta shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, take any and all steps necessary to obtain approval of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement by any Governmental Entity under the HSR Act, including taking all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every legal impediment under the HSR Act that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity so as to enable the parties hereto to consummate the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, including proposing, negotiating, accepting, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, the sale, transfer, license, or other disposition of their Subsidiaries, assets, properties or businesses, the entrance into, or the amendment, modification or termination of, any Contracts or other arrangements, or business practices, and other remedies (each, a “Remedial Action”) in order to obtain such approvals and to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other Law in any suit or other action, arbitration, or litigation, which could otherwise have the effect of delaying beyond the Outside Date or preventing the consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, neither Omega nor Beta nor any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be required to propose, negotiate, accept, commit to, or effect any Remedial Action, the effect of which (i) would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect after the Closing on the combined businesses of Beta and Omega and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, including the overall benefits expected, as of the date of this Agreement, to be derived by the parties from the combination of Beta and Omega via the Mergers and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) would result in the divestiture, sale or disposition of assets, properties or businesses of Bega, Omega or any of their respective Subsidiaries representing $100,000,000 or more of revenue (calculated in accordance with GAAP) of Beta, Omega and their respective Subsidiaries in the aggregate determined as of the trailing twelve (12) month period ended December 31, 2018; provided, that in no event shall Beta or Omega or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates be required to consummate any Remedial Action until immediately prior to the Closing. In addition, Omega and Beta shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, to, defend through litigation on the merits so as to enable the parties to close the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event prior to the Outside Date) any claim asserted in court or an administrative or other tribunal by any antitrust or competition Governmental Entity under the HSR Act in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment, order or decree that could prevent or delay beyond the Outside Date the Closing from occurring; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, such litigation shall in no way limit the obligations of the parties to comply with their other obligations under the terms of this Section 5.5. Omega and Beta shall jointly direct and control any such litigation with counsel of their own choosing. In the event of any conflict between subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 5.5, the provisions of this Section 5.5(b) shall, with respect to the matters addressed in this Section 5.5(b), supersede the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 5.5.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with obtaining any approval or consent from any Person (other than any Governmental Entity) with respect to the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, neither Beta nor Omega nor any of their respective Representatives, shall be obligated to pay or commit to pay to such Person whose approval or consent is being solicited any cash or other consideration, make any accommodation or commitment or incur any liability or other obligation to such Person. Subject to the immediately foregoing sentence, the parties shall cooperate with respect to reasonable accommodations that may be requested or appropriate to obtain such consents.

Section 5.6 Takeover Laws. Omega, Beta, Merger Sub Inc. and Merger Sub LLC shall use their respective best efforts to (a) take no action to cause any Takeover Law to become applicable to this Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby and (b) if any Takeover Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, take all action necessary to ensure that the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such Takeover Law with respect to this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.7 Notification of Certain Matters; Transaction Litigation.

(b) Omega and its Representatives shall give prompt (but no later than one (1) Business Day) notice to Beta, and Beta and its Representatives shall give prompt (but no later than one (1) Business Day) notice to Omega, of any Action commenced or, to such party’s knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving such party or any Subsidiary of Omega or any Subsidiary of Beta, respectively, or any of their respective directors or officers that relates to this Agreement, the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Beta and its Representatives shall give Omega the opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of any Action against Beta and/or its Representatives relating to this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without Omega’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Omega and its Representatives shall give Beta the opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of any Action against Omega and/or its Representatives relating to this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without Beta’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 5.8 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) Beta, Merger Sub Inc. and Merger Sub LLC agree that all rights to indemnification existing in favor of the current or former directors and officers of Omega as provided in the Omega Charter or the Omega Bylaws as in effect on the date of this Agreement for acts or omissions occurring prior to the First Merger Effective Time shall be assumed and performed by the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Company and shall continue in full force and effect until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to any claims against such directors or officers arising out of such acts or omissions, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(b) Prior to the First Merger Effective Time, each of Beta and Omega shall use reasonable best efforts to purchase a “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy with coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable to the insured Persons in the aggregate with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events that occurred before or at the First Merger Effective Time (including in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) than the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Omega or Beta, as applicable, if the cost thereof does not exceed 300% of the last annual premium paid by Omega or Beta, as applicable, for the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Omega or Beta, as applicable, before the date of this Agreement; provided, that if Omega or Beta is unable to so acquire such a “tail” policy then Beta shall cause the Surviving Company to maintain in effect for at least six years after the First Merger Effective Time the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Omega or Beta, as applicable, or policies with coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the insured Persons with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events that occurred before or at the First Merger Effective Time (including in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) so long as Beta or the Surviving Company are not required to pay an aggregate premium in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by Beta for such insurance before the date of this Agreement (such 300% amount being the “Maximum Premium”). If Omega or Beta, as applicable, is unable to obtain the “tail” policy and Beta or the Surviving Company are unable to obtain the insurance described in the prior sentence for an amount less than or equal to the Maximum Premium, then Beta shall cause the Surviving Company to instead obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(c) The provisions of this Section 5.8 shall survive consummation of the Mergers and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified party, his or her heirs and his or her legal representatives.

Each of the parties shall consider and negotiate in good faith such amendments to this Agreement as may be reasonably required to cause the Mergers to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (it being understood that no party will be required to agree to any such amendment).

Each of the Beta Parties and Omega shall use its reasonable best efforts not to, and not permit any controlled Affiliate to, take or cause to be taken any action that would cause to be untrue (or fail to take or cause not to be taken any action which inaction would cause to be untrue) any of the representations made in the tax representation letters described in this Section 5.11(b).

Payment of the Beta Termination Fee shall be made by wire transfer of same-day funds to the accounts designated by Omega Parent (i) on the earliest of the execution of a definitive agreement with respect to, submission to the stockholders of, or consummation of, any transaction contemplated by an Acquisition Proposal, as applicable, in the case of a Beta Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 7.3(c)(i), (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable after termination (and, in any event, within two (2) Business Days thereof), in the case of termination by Omega pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii) or (iii) immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with such termination, in the case of termination by Beta pursuant to Section 7.1(c)(ii).

(e) The Beta Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 7.3(e) and Section 7.3(f) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Omega Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 7.3(b) are not a penalty but rather constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Beta for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) without the agreements contained in this Section 7.3(e) and Section 7.3(f), the parties would not have entered into this Agreement and (iv) subject to the rights of the parties in respect of specific performance pursuant to and solely to the extent provided in Section 8.10, in the event that the Closing does not occur for any reason (whether or not this Agreement is terminated by Beta and the Omega Termination Fee is payable), the maximum aggregate liability of (A) Omega and Omega Parent and (B) the former, current and future holders of equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates (other than Omega and Omega Parent), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of Omega, Omega Parent, the Debt Financing Sources and their respective Affiliates (collectively the Persons in clauses (A) and (B), the “Omega Related Parties”) shall be solely limited to an aggregate amount equal to the Omega Termination Fee to the extent payable, and, in no event shall Beta or any other Person seek, or be entitled, to recover any money or other damages in excess of such amount (including, in each case, for any willful, intentional or knowing breach or other action or inaction) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (and the abandonment or termination thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination or for any breach of, or by virtue of any rights under, any of the foregoing agreements; provided, however, that if Omega, Omega Parent and Omega III shall fail to promptly pay the Omega Termination Fee when required pursuant to Section 7.3(b) and, in order to obtain such payment, Beta commences any Action that results in Omega, Omega III or Omega Parent paying the Omega Termination Fee, Omega shall pay to Beta its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) in connection with such suit and any related costs to enforce its right to receive the Omega Termination Fee, together with interest on such amount at the prime rate of interest reported in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment (collectively, “Beta Collection Costs”).

Article Three

The nature and purpose of the business of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”).

Article Four

Section 1. Authorized Shares. The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is [750,000,000] shares, consisting of two classes as follows:

1. [50,000,000] shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”); and

2. [700,000,000] shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”).

The Preferred Stock and the Common Stock shall have the designations, rights, powers and preferences and the qualifications, restrictions and limitations thereof, if any, set forth below.

Section 2. Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to provide, by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and with respect to each series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the voting powers (if any), designations, powers, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, of the shares of each such series, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The powers (including voting powers), preferences, and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of Preferred Stock and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the approval of the Board of Directors and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in an election of directors, without the separate vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock as a class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

Pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by this Article Four, the Board of Directors created a series of (i) 825,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) by filing the Certificate of Designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Secretary of State”) on March 9, 2015, as amended by that certain Certificate of Amendment filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [___], 2019 (as amended, the “Series A Certificate of Designations”) and (ii) 625,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) by filing the Certificate of Designations of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation with the Secretary of State on June 14, 2016 (the “Series C Certificate of Designations”).

Section 3. Common Stock.

(a) Except as otherwise provided by the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation and subject to the rights of holders of any series of Preferred Stock, all of the voting power of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be vested in the holders of the Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote for each share held by such holder on all matters voted upon by the stockholders of the Corporation; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) or pursuant to the DGCL.

(b) Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, each share of Common Stock shall have the same powers, rights and privileges and shall rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respects as to all matters.

(c) Subject to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock and to the other provisions of applicable law and this Certificate of Incorporation, holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive equally, on a per share basis, such dividends and other distributions in cash, securities or other property of the Corporation if, as and when declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor.

(d) Subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for payment of the Corporation’s debts and any other payments required by law and amounts payable upon shares of Preferred Stock ranking senior to the shares of Common Stock upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding up, if any, the remaining net assets of the Corporation shall be distributed to the holders of shares of Common Stock and the holders of shares of any other class or series ranking equally with the shares of Common Stock upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding up, equally on a per share basis.

Article Five

Section 1. Board of Directors. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.

Section 2. Number of Directors. Subject to any rights of the holders of any class or series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances or otherwise, the number of directors which shall constitute the Board of Directors shall initially be [●] and, thereafter, shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution of the Board.

Section 3. Election and Term of Office. The directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast; provided that, whenever the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation are entitled to elect one or more directors pursuant to the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (including, but not limited to, any duly authorized certificate of designation), such directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by such holders. At each annual meeting of stockholders, each director shall be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, disqualification, resignation or removal. Nothing in this Certificate of Incorporation shall preclude a director from serving consecutive terms. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation (as amended and/or restated the “Bylaws”) shall so provide.

Section 4. Newly-Created Directorships and Vacancies. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and except as otherwise set forth in that certain Director Nomination Agreement between the Corporation and HC Group, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal from office or any other cause may be filled only by resolution of a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and may not be filled in any other manner. A director elected or appointed to fill a vacancy shall serve for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor in office and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. A director elected or appointed to fill a position resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall hold office until the next election of directors and until his or her successor is elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the authorized number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

Section 5. Removal and Resignation of Directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and notwithstanding any other provision of this Certificate of Incorporation, (i) prior to the first date (the “Trigger Date”) on which HC Group Holdings I, LLC (“HC Group”) and its Affiliated Companies (as defined herein) cease to beneficially own (directly or indirectly) 50% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (“Voting Stock”), directors may be removed with or without cause upon the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a single class and (ii) on and after the Trigger Date, directors may be removed with or without cause upon the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66⅔%) of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, at a meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders called for that purpose. Any director may resign at any time upon written notice to the Corporation.

Section 6. Rights of Holders of Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the provisions of this ARTICLE FIVE, whenever the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock shall have the right, voting separately or together with the holders of one or more other series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and newly created directorships and other features of such directorship shall be subject to the rights of such series of Preferred Stock. During any period when the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series, have the right to elect additional directors, then upon commencement and for the duration of the period during which such right continues: (i) the then otherwise total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be increased by such specified number of directors, and the holders of such Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect the additional directors so provided for or fixed pursuant to said provisions, and (ii) each such additional director shall serve until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s right to hold such office terminates pursuant to said provisions, whichever occurs earlier, subject to his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Except as otherwise provided by the Board of Directors in the resolution or resolutions establishing such series, whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to the provisions of such stock, the terms of office of all such additional directors elected by the holders of such stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting from the death, resignation, disqualification or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate (in which case each such director thereupon shall cease to be qualified as, and shall cease to be, a director) and the total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

Section 7. Advance Notice. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws.

Article Six

Section 1. Limitation of Liability.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it now exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader exculpation than permitted prior thereto), no director of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages arising from a breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

(b) Any amendment, repeal or modification of the foregoing paragraph by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or modification with respect to any act, omission or other matter occurring prior to such amendment, repeal or modification.

Article Seven

Section 1. Action by Written Consent. Prior to the Trigger Date, any action which is required or permitted to be taken by the Corporation’s stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of the Corporation’s stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. From and after the Trigger Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Corporation’s stockholders may be taken only at a duly called annual or special meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders and the power of stockholders to consent in writing without a meeting is specifically denied; provided, however, that any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more other such series, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, to the extent expressly so provided the resolutions creating such series of Preferred Stock.

Section 2. Special Meetings of Stockholders. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called only (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board of Directors pursuant to a written resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of the majority of the total number of directors that the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies or (ii) prior to the Trigger Date, by the Chairman of the Board of Directors at the written request of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock in the manner provided for in the Bylaws. Any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of the meeting.

Article Eight

Section 1. Certain Acknowledgments. In recognition and anticipation that (i) certain of the directors, partners, principals, officers, members, managers and/or employees of HC Group or its Affiliated Companies (as defined below) may serve as directors or officers of the Corporation and (ii) HC Group and its Affiliated Companies engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage and/or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage, and (iii) that the Corporation and its Affiliated Companies may engage in material business transactions with HC Group and its Affiliated Companies, and that the Corporation is expected to benefit therefrom, the provisions of this ARTICLE EIGHT are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation as they may involve HC Group and/or its Affiliated Companies and/or their respective directors, partners, principals, officers, members, managers and/or employees, including any of the foregoing who serve as officers or directors of the Corporation (collectively, the “Exempted Persons”), and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its officers, directors and stockholders in connection therewith.

Section 2. Competition and Corporate Opportunities. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Exempted Persons shall have any fiduciary duty to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies, and no Exempted Person shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of any such activities of HC Group, its Affiliated Companies or such Exempted Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation, on behalf of itself and its Affiliated Companies, renounces any interest or expectancy of the Corporation and its Affiliated Companies in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time presented to the Exempted Persons, even if the opportunity is one that the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so, and each Exempted Person shall have no duty to communicate or offer such business opportunity to the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be liable to the Corporation, any of its Affiliated Companies or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director, officer or stockholder of the Corporation solely, by reason of the fact that HC Group, its Affiliated Companies or any such Exempted Person pursues or acquires such business opportunity, sells, assigns, transfers or directs such business opportunity to another person or fails to present such business opportunity, or information regarding such business opportunity, to the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2, the Corporation does not renounce any interest or expectancy it may have in (i) any business opportunity that is expressly offered to any Exempted Person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation, and not in any other capacity, or (ii) any business opportunity that any Exempted Person first learns of in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation.

Section 3. Certain Matters Deemed Not Corporate Opportunities. In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this ARTICLE EIGHT, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to belong to the Corporation if it is a business opportunity the Corporation is not financially able or contractually permitted or legally able to undertake, or that is, from its nature, not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to it or that is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.

Section 4. Amendment of this Article. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, and in addition to any vote required by applicable law, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend or repeal, or to adopt any provision inconsistent with, this ARTICLE EIGHT; provided however, that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, neither the alteration, amendment or repeal of this ARTICLE EIGHT nor the adoption of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this ARTICLE EIGHT shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any Exempted Person for or with respect to any activities or opportunities which such Exempted Person becomes aware prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption.

Section 5. Deemed Notice. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any shares of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this ARTICLE EIGHT.

CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT TO THE

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS
OF
SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK,

PAR VALUE $0.0001 PER SHARE,

BIOSCRIP, INC.

BioScrip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), hereby certifies as follows:

FIRST: The Corporation’s Certificate of Designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Certificate of Designations”), which was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 9, 2015, is hereby amended to add the following new Section 18 thereto:

18 Redemption; Conversion.

(a) Redemption and Conversion at the Option of the Corporation Following Merger. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, immediately following the effectiveness of both the mergers (the “Mergers”) pursuant to and in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended or modified, the “Merger Agreement”), dated [●], by and among the Corporation, Beta Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation, Beta Sub, LLC, a Delaware corporation HC Group Holdings I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and HC Group Holdings II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as amended from time to time), a copy of which shall be maintained by the Secretary of the Corporation and provided to any stockholder of the Corporation without charge upon request (the date of the effectiveness of the Mergers, the “Redemption Date”), without any further action on the part of the Corporation or any stockholder thereof, (i) (A) four one-hundredths (4/100) of each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation on March 9, 2015 then issued and outstanding shall automatically be converted into 2.5226 shares of Common Stock and (B) four one-hundredths (4/100) of each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation on July 29, 2015 then issued and outstanding shall automatically be converted into 2.4138 shares of Common Stock and (ii) the remaining portion of all Series A Preferred Stock (constituting ninety-six one-hundredths (96/100) of each share of Series A Preferred Stock subject to conversion pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i)) shall be redeemed, to the extent of funds lawfully available therefor, for an amount in cash equal to 120% of the Liquidation Preference of such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”), in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 18. In the event the Redemption Date occurs on a date during a Regular Dividend Period, the Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock shall include Accrued Dividends (in addition to all prior Accrued Dividends) calculated in accordance with Section 3(a)(ii) for such partial period through the Redemption Date. For purposes of the conversion and redemption set forth in this Section 18, each share of Series A Preferred Stock held by each holder thereof shall be aggregated with all other shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder. The Corporation shall not be required to issue any fractional shares of Common Stock resulting from the conversion of a holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock as provided hereby, and, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share of Common Stock, the Corporation may pay to the holder thereof cash in amount equal to the fair value (which shall be the last reported sale price of a share of Common Stock on the exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are trading on the most recent day of trading prior to the Redemption Date) of the factional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder.

106

(b) Notice of Redemption and Conversion Following Merger. As promptly as practicable following the effective time of the Mergers, the Corporation shall give notice (or cause notice to be given) to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock of the conversion and redemption on the Redemption Date of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which notice may include a letter of transmittal in such form as the Corporation determines appropriate for the surrender of the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted and redeemed pursuant to this Section 18 in exchange for the shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been converted, and payment of the cash, if any, representing the fair value of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable to a holder following any such conversion and the aggregate Redemption Price for the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed. Such notice shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Any notice mailed as provided in this Section 18(b) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock subject to conversion and redemption as provided in Section 18(a) hereof shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the conversion or redemption of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock or of any other shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted and redeemed. Each notice of redemption and conversion given to a holder shall state the place or places where certificates representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted and redeemed pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof are to be surrendered in exchange for (x) a certificate representing the aggregate number of whole shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been converted pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof and (y) payment of cash in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the aggregate Redemption Price for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock plus (2) the fair value of any fractional shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder as a result of the conversion of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock. If the certificate(s) representing any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the holder thereof shall surrender, in lieu of such certificate(s), an affidavit that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and an indemnity or bond in an amount the Corporation determines to be sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate(s) or the issuance of any new certificate representing the shares of Common Stock into which such shares shall have been converted.

107

(c) Effectiveness of Redemption and Conversion. Notwithstanding that any certificate(s) representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted and redeemed pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof shall not have not been surrendered for cancellation and exchange, (i) from and after the effectiveness of the conversion of a holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the Redemption Date, all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder and so converted shall cease to be outstanding (and shall cease to accrue dividends) and shall be cancelled and retired, and the holder of such shares shall have no further rights with respect to such shares, other than the right to receive the shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been converted pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof (and payment of cash in an amount equal to the fair value of fractional shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder upon such conversion), upon compliance with the terms and conditions of this Section 18, and (ii) from and after the redemption of a holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the Redemption Date, upon the earlier of such time as the Corporation shall have paid or set apart for payment the Redemption Price for such shares, all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder and so redeemed shall cease to be outstanding (and shall cease to accrue dividends) and shall be cancelled and retired, and the holder of such shares shall have no further rights with respect to such shares, other than the right to receive the Redemption Price thereof, without interest, upon compliance with the terms and conditions of this Section 18. At the time of the conversion and redemption provide by Section 18(a), until surrendered as provided herein, any certificate representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to represent only the shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been converted and the right to receive payment of the fair value of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon any such conversion and of the aggregate Redemption Price for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed.

(c) Matters Regarding the Merger Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Section 18 and any other section of this Series A Certificate of Designations, this Section 18 shall prevail. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Series A Certificate of Designations, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall not constitute a Change of Control, a Liquidation Event or a Deemed Liquidation Event for purposes hereof and shall be permitted without any right, consent, notice, entitlement or other procedural requirement arising out of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, except as set forth in this Section 18.

SECOND: The foregoing amendment was duly adopted by (i) the board of directors of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and (ii) the affirmative vote of holders representing not less than (a) a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon and (b) a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, in each case, in accordance with Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Series A Certificate of Designations.
