SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

This SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Effective Date”), by and between Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the holder of the Note (as defined below) set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Holder”).

A. The Holder is the registered holder of a 10% Senior Subordinated Callable Convertible Promissory Note dated October 16, 2009 in the original principal amount set forth on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Original Note”) issued by the Company in its offering of units (the “Units”) consisting of notes substantially similar to the Original Note and warrants to purchase common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”). The Company’s offering of Units was made pursuant to a Confidential Private Placement Memorandum dated September 23, 2009 (the “Memorandum”), a copy of which was provided to the Holder prior to its purchase of Units. The Original Note was subsequently amended by an Amendment to Senior Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note of Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., dated October 29, 2012, between the Company and the Holder (the “Amendment” and, together with the Original Note, the “Note”).

B. On or about October 18, 2013, the Company delivered to the Holder a notice of redemption of the Note pursuant to the terms set forth in the Memorandum. The redemption notice stated that the Company was exercising its right to redeem the Note on December 17, 2013 at a redemption price of 102% of the principal amount of the Note plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

C. Although the Memorandum contains terms giving the Company the right to redeem the Note, the Note does not contain any right of redemption, and the Holder disputes the Company’s right to redeem the Note.

D. The Company and Holder have agreed to settle and resolve all such claims, differences and disagreements regarding the redemption of the Note to avoid further expense, inconvenience and distraction.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements, representations, warranties, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto, each intending to be bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. Redemption and/or Conversion of Note. The parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in consideration for the Holder’s execution and delivery hereof, the Company agrees, on the Effective Date, to redeem all or part of the principal and accrued interest of the Note for cash and/or to convert all or part of the principal and accrued interest of the Note into shares of Common Stock, in each case in the respective amounts set forth on Exhibit A hereto. The Holder irrevocably and unconditionally elects to redeem and/or convert the Note on the Effective Date as set forth on Exhibit A hereto and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) On or before the Effective Date, the Holder shall deliver to the Company (i) the original Note, or (ii) if the Note is not in the Holder’s possession or control, an original Affidavit of Loss and Indemnity Agreement in the form provided by the Company.

(c) On the Effective Date, the Company shall, as applicable, deliver to the Holder the redemption amount and/or instruct its transfer agent to prepare a stock certificate evidencing the Holder’s record ownership of the shares of Common Stock into which the Note is converted as set forth on Exhibit A hereto.

2. Release.

(a) Release by Holder. The Holder hereby absolutely, forever and fully, generally and specifically, unconditionally and irrevocably releases, acquits, and forever discharges the Company and each of its agents, employees, independent contractors, representatives, partners, managers, members, owners, shareholders, officers, directors, attorneys, insurers, affiliates, assigns, predecessors and successors (collectively, the “Company Releasees”), of and from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, damages, costs, expenses and compensation of every kind (“Claims”), including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and costs of any kind or nature, known or unknown, which the Holder heretofore had, owned, held or claimed to have, own or hold against any of the Company Releasees, or at any time now or in the future have, own, hold or claim to have, own or hold against any of the Company Releasees; provided, however, this Agreement does not discharge any obligations or any breach of any representations or warranties of the Company under or contained in this Agreement or any Claims arising from or relating to the Holder’s ownership of or transactions relating to any securities of the Company other than the Note.

(b) Section 1542. The Holder acknowledges that in the event that at any time after the Effective Date any injury, loss or damage is sustained in connection with any matter released in this Section 2 or any matter set forth elsewhere in this Agreement which is not now known or suspected, or in the event that the loss or damage now known has consequences or results not known or suspected, this Agreement shall nevertheless constitute a full and final release as to the parties and matters herein released, and this release shall apply to and include all such unknown or unsuspected consequences or results. The Holder has read and has been carefully advised by its attorneys of the contents of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

The Holder has read and has been carefully advised by its attorneys of the contents of Section 1542. The Holder hereby expressly, unconditionally and irrevocably waives any and all rights and benefits under said Section 1542.

3. Assumption of Risk. The Holder does hereby expressly assume the risk of any mistake of fact, or that the true facts might be other or different from facts now known or believed to exist. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that it is aware that it may hereafter discover claims in relation to the matters referred to in this Agreement, presently unknown or unsuspected, or facts in addition to or different from those which it now knows or believes to be true. Nevertheless, it is the Holder’s intention, by executing this Agreement, to fully, finally and forever settle and release all such matters, and all claims related thereto. In furtherance of such intention, the release given herein shall be and remain in effect as a full and complete release of such matters, notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any such additional or different claims or facts relative thereto by the Holder.

4. Advice of Counsel/Investigation of All Facts/Voluntary Settlement. The Holder has had the opportunity to seek the advice of legal counsel prior to the Effective Date. The Holder represents and warrants that it has read and understood this Agreement. The Holder hereby executes this Agreement voluntarily and with full knowledge of its significance, and with the express intention of effecting the extinguishment of any and all obligations and claims arising out of or connected with the matters specified herein. The Holder has investigated the facts pertaining to the settlement and this Agreement and all matters pertaining thereto as deemed necessary by such party. The Holder has entered into this Agreement in the total absence of any fraud, mistake, duress, coercion, or undue influence and after careful thought and reflection upon this Agreement and the documents referred to herein; and accordingly, by signing this document and the documents referred to herein, the Holder signifies that it has been read with full understanding, agreement and acceptance. This Agreement is entered into with the intent of effectuating the extinguishment of the claims released hereunder.

5. Covenant Not to Sue. The Holder covenants and agrees never to commence, prosecute, join, aid or participate in any way (except as may be required by subpoena or court order), or cause to be commenced or prosecuted against any Company Releasee, any action or legal proceeding based in whole or in part upon the matters released in this Agreement. This Agreement may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to any action or other proceeding, and/or as a basis for abatement of, or injunction against, such action or other proceeding.

6. Representations and Warranties. The Holder represents and warrants to the Company:
