The purchase price for the Merger is $60 million in cash plus up to an aggregate of $50 million in earnout payments based on Health Grid achieving certain revenue targets over the next three years (subject to adjustments for net working capital, cash, debt and transaction expenses, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement).
