1. Description of Organization and Business Operations
The Business
On November 5, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), DocGo Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly known as Motion Acquisition Corp) (prior to the Closing Date, “Motion” and after the Closing Date, “DocGo”), consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Closing”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 8, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Motion Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Motion”), Motion Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Motion (“Merger Sub”), and Ambulnz, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ambulnz”). In connection with the Closing, the registrant changed its name from Motion Acquisition Corp. to DocGo Inc.
As contemplated by the Merger Agreement and as described in Motion’s definitive proxy statement/consent solicitation/prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 14, 2021 (the “Prospectus”), Merger Sub was merged with and into Ambulnz, with Ambulnz continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”). As a result of the Merger, Ambulnz is a wholly-owned subsidiary of DocGo and each share of Series A preferred stock of Ambulnz, no par value (“Ambulnz Preferred Stock”), Class A common stock of Ambulnz, no par value (“Ambulnz Class A Common Stock”), and Class B common stock of Ambulnz, no par value (“Ambulnz Class B Common Stock,” together with Ambulnz Class A Common Stock, “Ambulnz Common Stock”) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a portion of merger consideration issuable as common stock of DocGo, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock”), pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.
In connection with the Business Combination, DocGo raised $158.0 million of net proceeds. This amount was comprised of $43.4 million of cash held in Motion’s trust account from its initial public offering, net of DocGo’s transaction costs and underwriters’ fees of $9.6 million, and $114.6 million of cash in connection with the PIPE Financing. The transaction costs consisted of banking, legal, and other professional fees, which were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.
The Business
DocGo Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a healthcare transportation and mobile health services (“Mobile Health”) company that uses proprietary dispatch and communication technology to provide quality healthcare transportation and healthcare services in major metropolitan cities in the United States and the United Kingdom. Mobile Health performs in-person care directly to patients in the comfort of their homes, workplaces and other non-traditional locations.
Ambulnz, LLC was originally formed in Delaware on June 17, 2015, as a limited liability company. On November 1, 2017, with an effective date of January 1, 2017, Ambulnz converted its legal structure from a limited liability company to a C-corporation and changed its name to Ambulnz, Inc.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by U.S. GAAP.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. Noncontrolling interests (“NCI”) on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements represent a portion of consolidated joint ventures and a variable interest entity in which the Company does not have direct equity ownership. Accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the prior years’ consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Pursuant to the Business Combination, the merger between Motion and Ambulnz, Inc. was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP (the “Reverse Recapitalization”). Under this method of accounting, Motion was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Reverse Recapitalization was treated as the equivalent of Ambulnz, Inc. stock for the net assets of Motion, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Motion are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations prior to the Reverse Recapitalization are those of Ambulnz, Inc. The shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share available for common stockholders, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio (645.1452 to 1) established in the Business Combination. Further, Ambulnz, Inc. was determined to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction, as such, the acquisition is considered a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”) and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of DocGo Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company holds a variable interest in MD1 Medical Care P.C. (“MD1”) which contracts with physicians and other health professionals in order to provide services to the Company. MD1 is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”) since it does not have sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. An enterprise having a controlling financial interest in a VIE must consolidate the VIE if it has both power and benefits—that is, it has (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impacts the VIE’s economic performance (power) and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE (benefits). The Company has the power and rights to control all activities of MD1 and funds and absorbs all losses of the VIE and appropriately consolidates MD1.
Net loss for the VIE was $85,379 as of March 31, 2022. The VIE’s total assets, all of which were current, amounted to $509,769 on March 31, 2022. Total liabilities, all of which were current for the VIE, was $1,020,254 on March 31, 2022. The VIE’s total stockholders’ deficit was $510,485 on March 31, 2022.

TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED)
Foreign Currency
The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of our foreign operation is the respective local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations denominated in local currencies are translated at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date, except for equity accounts which are translated at historical rates. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income are translated at the weighted average rate of exchange during the applicable period. The resulting unrealized cumulative translation adjustment is not material to the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in its financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to revenue recognition related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, stock based compensation, calculations related to the incremental borrowing rate for the Company’s lease agreements, estimates related to ongoing lease terms, software development costs, impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, business combinations, reserve for losses within the Company’s insurance deductibles, income taxes, and deferred income tax. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and actual results, the Company’s future results of operations will be affected.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk
The Company is potentially subject to concentration of credit risk with respect to its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, which the Company attempts to minimize by maintaining cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash with institutions of sound financial quality. At times, cash balances may exceed limits federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial strength of the depository institutions in which the funds are held. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of loss.
Major Customers
The Company has one customer that accounted for approximately 34% of sales and 22% of net accounts receivable, and another customer that accounted for 19% of sales and 17% of net accounts receivable for the period ended March 31, 2022. As of the period ended March 31, 2021, one customer accounted for approximately 26% of sales and 13% of net accounts receivable, and another customer that accounted for 10% of sales and 3% of net accounts receivable. The Company expects to maintain its relationships with these customers.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non- emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to maintain consistency between periods presented. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income or retained earnings.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company maintains most of its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions in the United States. The accounts at financial institutions in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and are in excess of FDIC limits. The Company had cash balances of approximately $1,029,825 and $803,000 with foreign financial institutions on March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Restricted Cash and Insurance Reserves
Cash and cash equivalents subject to contractual restrictions and not readily available are classified as restricted cash in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restricted cash is classified as either a current or non-current asset depending on the restriction period. The Company is required to pledge or otherwise restrict a portion of cash and cash equivalents as collateral for its line of credit, transportation equipment leases and a standby letter of credit as required by its insurance carrier (see Notes 8 and 13).
The Company utilizes a combination of insurance and self-insurance programs, including a wholly-owned captive insurance entity, to provide for the potential liabilities for certain risks, including workers’ compensation, automobile liability, general liability and professional liability. Liabilities associated with the risks that are retained by the Company within its high deductible limits are not discounted and are estimated, in part, by considering claims experience, exposure and severity factors and other actuarial assumptions. The Company has commercial insurance in place for catastrophic claims above its deductible limits.
ARM Insurance, Inc. a Vermont-based wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary of the Company, charges the operating subsidiaries premiums to insure the retained workers’ compensation, automobile liability, general liability and professional liability exposures. Pursuant to Vermont insurance regulations, ARM Insurance, Inc. maintains certain levels of cash and cash equivalents related to its self-insurance exposures.
The Company also maintains certain cash balances related to its insurance programs, which are held in a self-depleting trust and restricted as to withdrawal or use by the Company other than to pay or settle self-insured claims and costs. These amounts are reflected in “Restricted cash” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, provides guidance on the development and disclosure of fair value measurements. Under this accounting guidance, fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
The accounting guidance classifies fair value measurements in one of the following three categories for disclosure purposes:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 prices for similar assets or liabilities that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and values determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.
Fair value measurements discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. For certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and due to seller, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values as it is short term in nature. The notes payable are presented at their carrying value, which based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms, approximates its fair values.

Accounts Receivable
The Company contracts with hospitals, healthcare facilities, businesses, state and local government entities, and insurance providers to transport patients and to provide Mobile Health services at specified rates. Accounts receivable consist of billings for transportation and healthcare services provided to patients. The billings will either be paid or settled on the patient’s behalf by health insurance providers, managed care organizations, treatment facilities, government sponsored programs, businesses, or patients directly. Accounts receivable are net of insurance provider contractual allowances, which are estimated at the time of billing based on contractual terms or other arrangements. Accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with payors and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectability of accounts receivable are recorded in the results of operations for the period in which the estimate is revised. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are offset against the allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company generally does not require collateral for accounts receivable.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. When an item is sold or retired, the costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated, and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. A summary of estimated useful lives is as follows:
Asset Category | Estimated Useful Life | |
Buildings | 39 years | |
Office equipment and furniture | 3 years | |
Vehicles | 5-8 years | |
Medical equipment | 5 years | |
Leasehold improvements | Shorter of useful life of asset or lease term |
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that improve an asset or extend its estimated useful life are capitalized.
Software Development Costs
Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage, maintenance costs and routine updates and enhancements of products are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes software development costs intended for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. Costs incurred in developing the application of its software and costs incurred to upgrade or enhance product functionalities are capitalized when it is probable that the expenses would result in future economic benefits to the Company and the functionalities and enhancements are used for their intended purpose. Capitalized software costs are amortized over its useful life.
Estimated useful life of software development activities are reviewed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that intangible assets may be impaired and adjusted as appropriate to reflect upcoming development activities that may include significant upgrades or enhancements to the existing functionality.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for its business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations (“ASC 805-10”), which requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including NCI, are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill.

(CONTINUED)
Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date and any changes in fair value after the acquisition date are accounted for as measurement-period adjustments. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration resulting from events after the acquisition date, such as earn-outs, are recognized as follows: (1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or (2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. For transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The Company capitalizes acquisition-related costs and fees associated with asset acquisitions and immediately expenses acquisition-related costs and fees associated with business combinations.
The estimated fair value of net assets to be acquired, including the allocation of the fair value to identifiable assets and liabilities, is determined using established valuation techniques. Management uses assumptions based on historical knowledge of the business and projected financial information of the target. These assumptions may vary based on future events, perceptions of different market participants and other factors outside the control of management, and such variations may be significant to estimated values.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of the recorded amount of long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the recorded amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment is assessed when the undiscounted expected future cash flows derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets targeted for disposal are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. For the periods ending March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, management determined that there was no impairment loss required to be recognized for the carrying value of long-lived assets.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, consisting primarily of operating licenses, are not amortized, but are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In assessing the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company makes assumptions regarding the estimated future cash flows, including forecasted revenue growth, projected gross margin and the discount rate to determine the fair value of these assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges against these assets in the reporting period in which the impairment is determined.
The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is one level below the operating segment. The Company has the option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary before performing the one-step quantitative assessment. If as a result of the qualitative assessment, it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative impairment test will be required. Otherwise, no further testing will be required. If a quantitative impairment test is performed, the Company compares the fair values of the applicable reporting units with their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. Estimating the fair value of the reporting units requires significant judgment by management. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, goodwill impairment is recognized.
Any excess in carrying value over the estimated fair value is recorded as impairment loss and charged to the results of operations in the period such determination is made. For the periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, management determined that there was no impairment loss required to be recognized in the carrying value of goodwill or other intangible assets. The Company selected December 31 as its annual testing date.

Line of Credit
The costs associated with the Company’s line of credit are deferred and recognized over the term of the line of credit as interest expense.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to interest rate, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives.
Related Party Transactions
The Company defines related parties as affiliates of the Company, entities for which investments are accounted for by the equity method, trusts for the benefit of employees, principal owners (beneficial owners of more than 10% of the voting interest), management, and members of immediate families of principal owners or management, other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
Related party transactions are recorded within operating expenses in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. For details regarding the related party transactions that occurred during the periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, refer to Note 15.
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), as amended.
To determine revenue recognition for contractual arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify each contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the relevant performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services the Company provides to the customer.
The Company generates revenues from the provision of (1) ambulance and medical transportation services (“Transportation Services”) and (2) Mobile Health services. The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company as the performance obligations are fulfilled, therefore the Company satisfies performance obligations immediately. The Company has utilized the “right to invoice” expedient which allows an entity to recognize revenue in the amount of consideration to which the entity has the right to invoice when the amount that the Company has the right to invoice corresponds directly to the value transferred to the customer. Revenues are recorded net of an estimated contractual allowances for claims subject to contracts with responsible paying entities. The Company estimates contractual allowances at the time of billing based on contractual terms, historical collections, or other arrangements. All transaction prices are fixed and determinable which includes a fixed base rate, fixed mileage rate and an evaluation of historical collections by each payer.
Nature of Our Services
Revenue is primarily derived from:
i. | Transportation Services: These services encompass both emergency response and non-emergency transport services. Non-emergency transport services include ambulance transports and wheelchair transports. Net revenue from transportation services is derived from the transportation of patients based on billings to third party payors and healthcare facilities. |
ii. | Mobile Health Services: These services include services performed at home and offices, COVID-19 testing and vaccinations, and event services which include on-site healthcare support at sporting events and concerts. |

The Company concluded that Transportation Services and any related support activities are a single performance obligation under ASC 606. The transaction price is determined by the fixed rate usage-based fees or fixed fees which are agreed upon in the Company’s executed contracts. For Mobile Health, the performance of the services and any related support activities are a single performance obligation under ASC 606. Mobile Health services are typically billed based on a fixed rate (i.e., time and materials separately or combined) fee structure taking into consideration staff and materials utilized.
As the performance associated with such services is known and quantifiable at the end of a period in which the services occurred (i.e., monthly or quarterly), revenues are typically recognized in the respective period performed. The typical billing cycle for Transportation Services and Mobile Health services is same day to 5 days with payments generally due within 30 days. For Transportation Services, the Company estimates the amount of revenues unbilled at month end and recognizes such amounts as revenue, based on available data and customer history. The Company’s Transportation Services and Mobile Health services each represent a single performance obligation. Therefore, allocation is not necessary as the transaction price (fees) for the services provided is standard and explicitly stated in the contractual fee schedule and/or invoice. The Company monitors and evaluate all contracts on a case-by-case basis to determine if multiple performance obligations are present in a contractual arrangement.
For Transportation Services, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company as the performance obligations are fulfilled, therefore the Company satisfies performance obligations at the same time. For Transportation Services, where the customer pays fixed rate usage-based fees, the actual usage in the period represents the best measure of progress. Generally, for Mobile Health services, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company as the performance obligations are fulfilled, therefore the Company satisfies performance obligations at the same time. For certain Mobile Health services that have a fixed fee arrangement, and the services are provided over time, revenue is recognized over time as the services are provided to the customer.
In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by as follows:

Stock Based Compensation
The Company expenses stock-based compensation over the requisite service period based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the awards. The Company estimates the fair value of stock option grants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. All stock-based compensation costs are recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Earnings per Share
Earnings per share represents the net income attributable to stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock of the Company during the reporting periods. Potential dilutive common stock equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of warrants and the incremental shares issuable upon conversion of stock options. In reporting periods in which the Company has a net loss, the effect is considered anti-dilutive and excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. On March 31, 2021, the Company excluded from its calculation 25,555,492 shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Equity Method Investment
On October 26, 2021, the Company acquired a 50% interest in RND Health Services Inc. (“RND”) for $655,876. The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee but does not exercise control. The Company’s carrying value in the equity method investee is reflected in the caption “Equity method investment” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in value of RND are recorded in “Loss from equity method investment” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company’s judgment regarding its level of influence over the equity method investee includes considering key factors, such as ownership interest, representation on the board of directors, and participation in policy-making decisions.
On November 1, 2021, the Company acquired a 20% interest in National Providers Association, LLC (“NPA”) for $30,000. The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee but does not exercise control. The Company’s carrying value in the equity method investee is reflected in the caption “Equity method investment” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in value of NPA are recorded in “Loss from equity method investment” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company’s judgment regarding its level of influence over the equity method investee includes considering key factors, such as ownership interest, representation on the board of directors, and participation in policy-making decisions. Effective December 21, 2021, three members withdrew from NPA resulting in the remaining two members obtaining the remaining ownership percentage. On December 31, 2021, and March 31, 2022, DocGo owned 50% of NPA.
Under the equity method, the Company’s investment is initially measured at cost and subsequently increased or decreased to recognize the Company’s share of income and losses of the investee, capital contributions and distributions and impairment losses. The Company performs a qualitative assessment annually and recognizes an impairment if there are sufficient indicators that the fair value of the investment is less than carrying value.
Leases
The Company categorizes leases at its inception as either operating or finance leases based on the criteria in FASB ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”). The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach, and has established a Right-of-Use (“ROU”) Asset and a current and non-current lease liability for each lease arrangement identified. The lease liability is recorded at the present value of future lease payments discounted using the discount rate that approximates the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the lease established at the commencement date, and the ROU asset is measured as the lease liability plus any initial direct costs, less any lease incentives received before commencement. The Company recognizes a single lease cost, so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis.
The Company has lease arrangements for vehicles, equipment, and facilities. These leases typically have original terms not exceeding 10 years and, in some cases contain multi-year renewal options, none of which are reasonably certain of exercise. The Company’s lease arrangements may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to combine and account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company has incorporated residual value obligations in leases for which there is such occurrences. Regarding short-term leases, ASC 842-10-25-2 permits an entity to make a policy election not to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases. The Company has elected not to apply the ASC 842 recognition criteria to any leases that qualify as short-term leases.

Income Taxes
Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or the Company’s tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided, if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740. When uncertain tax positions exist, the Company recognizes the tax benefit of tax positions to the extent that the benefit would more likely than not be realized assuming examination by the taxing authority. The determination as to whether the tax benefit will more likely than not be realized is based upon the technical merits of the tax position as well as consideration of the available facts and circumstances. The Company recognizes any interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”), that eliminates accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in Subtopic 310-40 Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. ASU 2022-02 also requires public business entities to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost. This ASU only affects entities that already adopted ASU 2016-13, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company expects that this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity reflect the 2020 shares as if the Merger occurred in 2020.
Prior to the reverse merger, on May 23, 2019, the Series A preferred stock was formed, and 40,000 shares were authorized. Each share of Series A preferred stock was convertible into Class A common stock at a conversion price of $3,000 per share, subject to adjustment as defined in the articles of incorporation.

The Series A preferred stockholders were entitled to a non-cumulative dividend equal to 8% of the original issue price as defined in the agreement when declared by the board of directors.
The holders of the Series A preferred stock had preferential liquidation rights and rank senior to the holders of common stock. If a liquidation were to occur, the holders of the Series A preferred stock would have been paid an amount equal to $3,000 per share, subject to adjustment as defined in the articles of incorporation, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. After the payment of the Series A preferred stockholders, the common stockholders would have been paid out on a pro-rate basis.

12. Stock Based Compensation
Stock Options
In 2021, the Company established the DocGo Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which replaced Ambulnz, Inc’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company reserved 16,607,894 shares of common stock for issuance under the Plan. The Company’s stock options generally vest on various terms based on continuous services over periods ranging from three to five years. The stock options are subject to time vesting requirements through 2031 and are nontransferable. Stock options granted have a maximum contractual term of 10 years. On March 31, 2022, approximately 2.7 million employee stock options on a converted basis had vested.
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Before the Company’s shares of stock were publicly traded, management took the average of several publicly traded companies that were representative of the Company’s size and industry in order to estimate its expected stock volatility. The expected term of the options represented the period of time the instruments are expected to be outstanding. The Company based the risk-free interest rate on the rate payable on the U.S. Treasury securities corresponding to the expected term of the awards at the date of grant. Expected dividend yield was zero based on the fact that the Company had not historically paid and does not intend to pay a dividend in the foreseeable future.
The Company utilized contemporaneous valuations in determining the fair value of its shares at the date of option grants. Prior to the Merger, each valuation utilized both the discounted cash flow and guideline public company methodologies to estimate the fair value of its shares on a non-controlling and marketable basis. The December 31, 2020 valuations also included an approach that took into consideration a pending non-binding letter of intent from Motion Acquisition Corp. The March 11, 2021 valuation report relied solely on the fair value of the Company’s shares implied by the March 8, 2021 Merger Agreement with Motion Acquisition Corp.
A discount for lack of marketability was applied to the non-controlling and marketable fair value estimates determined above. The determination of an appropriate discount for lack of marketability was based on a review of discounts on the sale of restricted shares of publicly traded companies and put-based quantitative methods. Factors that influenced the size of the discount for lack of marketability included (a) the estimated time it would take for a Company stockholder to achieve marketability, and (b) the volatility of the Company’s business.
The following assumptions were used to compute the fair value of the stock option grants during the period ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:
Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
2022 | 2021 | |||||||
Risk-free interest rate | 0.71 | % | 0.06 | % | ||||
Expected term (in years) | 4 | .5 - 2 | ||||||
Volatility | 60 | % | 65 | % | ||||
Dividend yield | 0 | % | 0 | % |
The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity under the Plan for the period ended March 31, 2022:
Options Shares | Weighted Average Exercise Price | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life in Years | Aggregate Intrinsic Value | |||||||||||||
Balance as of, December 31, 2021 | 8,422,972 | $ | 6.21 | 8.77 | $ | 24,706,020 | ||||||||||

Options vested and exercisable at March 31, 2022 | 2,757,391 | $ | 4.04 | 7.05 | $ | 15,040,545 |
The aggregate intrinsic value in the above table is calculated as the difference between fair value of the Company’s common stock price and the exercise price of the stock options. The weighted average grant date fair value per share for stock option grants during the periods ended March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $7.15 and $2.80, respectively. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the total unrecognized compensation related to unvested stock option awards granted was $22,868,377 and $20,792,804, respectively, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.58 years.
Restricted Stock Units
The fair value of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) is determined on the date of grant. The Company records compensation expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for RSUs. The vesting period for employees and members of the Board of Directors ranges from one to four years.

The total grant-date fair value of RSUs granted during the period ended March 31, 2022 was $1,049,999.
For the period ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs of $82,304.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $1,467,949 in unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.4 years.
13. Leases
Operating Leases
The Company is obligated to make rental payments under non-cancellable operating leases for office, dispatch station space, and transportation equipment, expiring at various dates through . Under the terms of the leases, the Company is also obligated for its proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs of the property. The Company is required to hold certain funds in restricted cash and cash equivalents accounts under some of these agreements.
Certain leases for property and transportation equipment contain options to purchase, extend or terminate the lease. Determining the lease term and amount of lease payments to include in the calculation of the right-of-use (ROU) asset and lease obligations for leases containing options requires the use of judgment to determine whether the exercise of an option is reasonably certain and whether the optional period and payments should be included in the calculation of the associated ROU asset and lease obligation. In making such judgment, the Company considers all relevant economic factors that would require whether to exercise or not exercise the option.
The Company’s lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate. Therefore, the Company used a benchmark approach to derive an appropriate imputed discount rate. The Company benchmarked itself against other companies of similar credit ratings and comparable quality and derived imputed rates, which were used to discount its real estate lease liabilities. The Company used estimated borrowing rates of 6% on January 1, 2019, for all leases that commenced prior to that date, for office spaces and transportation equipment.

The Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $440,179 and $10,029 respectively. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was 4.85% and 2.53%.
17. 401(K) Plan
The Company has established a 401(k) plan in January 2022 that qualifies as a deferred compensation arrangement under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. All U.S. employees that complete two months of service with the Company are eligible to participate in the plan. The Company did not make any employer contributions to this plan as of March 31, 2022.
18. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved as a defendant in legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the Company has adequate legal defense on all legal actions, and the results of any such proceedings would not materially impact the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. The Company provides disclosure and records loss contingencies in accordance with the loss contingencies accounting guidance. In accordance with such guidance, the Company establishes accruals for such matters when potential losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the possible loss in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a liability of $1,000,000, which represents an amount for an agreed settlement, under the terms of a memorandum of understanding, of various class-based claims, both actual and potential, under Federal and California State law over a historical period. The settlement is subject to court approval.

19. Risk and Uncertainties
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus (the “COVID-19 Outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 Outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.
The spread of COVID-19 and the related country-wide shutdowns and restrictions have had a mixed impact on the Company’s business. In the ambulance transportation business, which predominantly comprises non-emergency medical transportation, the Company has seen a decline in volumes from historical and expected levels, as elective surgeries and other procedures have been postponed. In some of the Company’s larger markets, such as New York and California, there have been declines in trip volume. In addition, the Company experienced lost revenues associated with sporting, concerts and other events, as those events have been cancelled or have a significantly restricted (or entirely eliminated) the number of permitted attendees.
There are two areas where the Company has experienced positive business impacts from COVID-19. In April and May 2020, the Company participated in an emergency project with Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) in the New York City area. This engagement resulted in incremental transportation revenue. In addition, in response to the need for widespread COVID-19 testing and available Emergency Medical Technicians (“EMT”) and Paramedics, the Company formed a new subsidiary, Rapid Reliable Testing, LLC (“RRT”), with the goal to perform COVID-19 tests at nursing homes, municipal sites, businesses, schools and other venues. RRT is part of the Mobile Health segment.
Medicare Accelerated Payments
Medicare accelerated payments of approximately $2,397,024 were received by the Company in April 2020. Effective October 8, 2020, CMS is no longer accepting new applications for accelerated payments. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to receive additional Medicare accelerated payments. Payments under the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment program are advances that must be repaid. Effective October 1, 2020, the program was amended such that providers are required to repay accelerated payments beginning one year after the payment was issued. After such one-year period, Medicare payments owed to providers will be recouped according to the repayment terms. The repayment terms specify that for the first 11 months after repayment begins, repayment will occur through an automatic recoupment of 25% of Medicare payments otherwise owed to the provider. At the end of the eleven-month period, recoupment will increase to 50% for six months. At the end of the six months (or 29 months from the receipt of the initial accelerated payment), Medicare will issue a letter for full repayment of any remaining balance, as applicable. In such event, if payment is not received within 30 days, interest will accrue at the annual percentage rate of four percent (4%) from the date the letter was issued and will be assessed for each full 30-day period that the balance remains unpaid. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $290,582 and $975,415 of Medicare accelerated payments were reflected within accrued liabilities, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as the Company expects to repay the balance by December 31, 2022. The Company’s estimate of the current liability is a function of historical cash receipts from Medicare and the repayment terms set forth above.

Overview
DocGo, which was originally incorporated in 2015, is a healthcare transportation and mobile services company that uses proprietary dispatch and communication technology to provide quality healthcare transportation and mobile, in-person medical treatment directly to patients in the comfort of their homes, workplaces and other non-traditional locations, in major metropolitan cities in the United States and the United Kingdom.
The Company derives revenue primarily from its two operating segments: Transportation Services and Mobile Health services.
● | Transportation Services: The services offered by this segment encompass both emergency response and non-emergency transport services. Non-emergency transport services include ambulance transports and wheelchair transports. Net revenue from Transportation Services is derived from the transportation of patients based on billings to third party payors and healthcare facilities. |
● | Mobile Health Services: The services offered by this segment include services performed at home and offices, COVID-19 testing, and event services which include on-site healthcare support at sporting events and concerts. |
See Note 10, “Business Segment Information” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding DocGo’s segments.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded net income of $9.4 million, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021.
29
COVID-19
The spread of COVID-19 and the related shutdowns and restrictions have had a mixed impact on our business. In the ambulance transportation business, which comprises of, predominantly, non-emergency medical transport, the Company experienced a decline in transportation volumes versus historical levels, as elective surgeries and other non-emergency surgical procedures were postponed or cancelled. In addition, the Company experienced lost revenue associated with sporting, concerts and other events, as those events were either cancelled or have experienced a significantly restricted number of permitted attendees.
There are two areas where the Company experienced positive business impacts from COVID-19. In April and May 2020, the Company participated in an emergency project with Federal Emergency Management Agency in the New York City area. This engagement resulted in incremental transportation revenue that partially offset some of the lost non-emergency transport revenues. In addition, in response to the need for widespread COVID-19 testing and available EMTs and paramedics, the Company expanded its operations to include Rapid Reliable Testing (“RRT”), with the goal of performing COVID-19 tests at nursing homes, municipal sites, businesses, schools and other venues. RRT is part of the Mobile Health business line. Mobile Health generated approximately $90.1 million in revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $30.6 million in the first quarter of 2021.
During 2020 and the early part of 2021, the Company continued to operate with several back-office employees working remotely. To date, the Company has not witnessed any degradation in productivity from these employees, the large majority of whom have now returned to their respective offices, and our operations have proceeded without major interruption. By early 2021, nearly all remote employees had returned to work in their respective offices and other locations. DocGo also utilized several government programs in 2020 related to the pandemic, receiving approximately $1.0 million in payments through the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund authorized under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act and related legislation as well as various state and local programs, net of amounts that will be repaid to HHS. DocGo also received accelerated Medicare payments of approximately $2.4 million that were required to be repaid beginning in April 2021. Through March 31, 2022, approximately $2.2 million of this advance had been recouped by Medicare.
While it is very difficult to accurately predict the future direction of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the related impact on medical transportation levels, the revenue from the Transportation Services segment during 2021 exceeded that of 2020 by approximately 33%. Since the beginning of 2021, trip volumes in most of our markets have started to return to more normal historical levels. The Company generated, during 2021, COVID-19 testing revenue, including its Mobile Health services segment, above the levels projected, and this persisted in the first quarter of 2022. The Company estimates that COVID-19 testing revenue in the first quarter of 2022 amounted to approximately $38 million. In a broader, strategic sense, the consumer focus on Mobile Health services and the formation of RRT, and its emergence as a significant contributor to overall revenues have accelerated the diversification in the Company’s business by more rapid expansion of the Mobile Health segment.
The Company’s current business plan assumes gradual recovery of industry-wide transportation volumes to historical levels, plus an increased demand for mobile health services, a demand that was accelerated by the pandemic, but which is also being driven by longer-term secular factors, such as the increasing desire on the part of patients to receive treatments outside of traditional settings, such as doctor’s offices and hospitals. However, given the unpredictable, unprecedented, and fluid nature of the pandemic and its economic consequences, we are unable to predict the duration and extent to which the pandemic and its related positive and negative impacts will affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations in future periods.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Our operating results and financial performance are influenced by a variety of factors, including, among others, obtaining operating licenses, acquisitions, conditions in the healthcare transportation and mobile health services markets and economic conditions generally, availability of healthcare professionals, changes in the cost of labor, and production schedules of our suppliers. Some of the more important factors are briefly discussed below. Future revenue growth and improvement in operating results will be largely contingent on DocGo’s ability to penetrate new markets and further penetrate existing markets, which is subject to a number of uncertainties, many of which are beyond DocGo’s control. The COVID-19 pandemic has also significantly impacted DocGo’s business, as discussed above.
30
Operating Licenses
DocGo has historically pursued a strategy of applying for ambulance operating licenses in the states, counties and cities, identified for future new market entry. The approval of a new operating license may take an extended period of time. DocGo reduces this risk through its acquisition strategy by identifying businesses and/or underlying licenses in these new markets that may be for sale.
Acquisitions
Historically, DocGo has pursued an acquisition strategy to obtain ambulance operating licenses from small operators. Future acquisitions may also include larger companies that may help drive revenue, profitability, cash flow and stockholder value. DocGo did not complete any acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2022. During the 12 months ended December 31, 2021, DocGo completed one acquisition, for a purchase price of $2.3 million, which contributed approximately $0.3 million to 2021 revenues. During the 12 months ended December 31, 2020, DocGo completed one acquisition, for a purchase price of $0.8 million, which contributed approximately $0.1 million to 2020 revenues.
Healthcare Services Market
The transportation services market is highly dependent on patients requiring transportation after surgeries and other medical procedures and treatments. During the pandemic, DocGo experienced a decrease in transportation volumes as a result of fewer elective surgeries. However, the Company was able to reallocate assets to locations where demand increased as a result of the pandemic.
Overall Economic Conditions in the Markets In Which We Operate
Economic changes both nationally and locally in our markets may impact our financial performance. Unfavorable changes in demographics, health care coverage of transportation and mobile health services, interest rates, ambulance manufacturing, a weakening of the national economy or of any regional or local economy in which we operate and other factors beyond our control could adversely affect our business.
Trip Volumes and Average Trip Price
A “trip” is defined as an instance where the Company completes the transportation of a patient to a specific destination, for which we are able to charge a fee. This metric does not include instances where a trip is ordered and subsequently either canceled (by the customer) or declined (by the Company). As trip volume represents the most basic unit of transportation service provided by the Company, it is the best measure of the level of demand for the Company’s Transportation Services, and is used by management to monitor and manage the scale of the business.
The average trip price is calculated by dividing the aggregate revenue from completed transports (“trips”) by the total number of transports, and is an important indicator of the effective rate at which the Company is being compensated for its provision of Transportation Services.
Revenues generated from programs under which DocGo is paid a fixed rate for the use of a fully staffed and equipped ambulance do not factor in the trip counts or average trip prices mentioned above.
Our Ability to Control Expenses
We pay close attention to the management of our working capital and operating expenses. Some of our most significant operating expenses are labor costs, medical supplies and vehicle-related costs, such as fuel, maintenance, repair and insurance. Insurance costs include premiums paid for coverage as well as reserves for estimated losses within the Company’s insurance policy deductibles. We employ our proprietary technology to drive improvements in productivity per transport. We regularly analyze our workforce productivity to achieve the optimum, cost-efficient labor mix for our locations.
31
Inflation
Beginning in April 2021, the inflation rate in the US, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has steadily increased. In 2019, the inflation rate was approximately 1.8%, while it dropped to approximately 1.2% in 2020. These data are reported monthly, showing year-over-year changes in prices across a basket of goods and services. For 2021, inflation increased from the 1.4%-2.6% range in the first quarter, to 4.2% in April, and was in the 5.0% area through the end of the third quarter of 2021, before increasing to the 6.0%-7.0% range in the fourth quarter. For the full year, the inflation rate was 4.7% in 2021, the highest annual rate since the 5.4% rate recorded in 1990. The inflation rate continued to increase throughout the first quarter of 2022, reaching approximately 8.5% in March 2022. The increased inflation rate has had an impact on the Company’s expenses in several areas, including wages, fuel and medical and other supplies. This has had the impact of compressing gross profit margins, as the Company is generally unable to pass these higher costs on to its customers, particularly in the short term. Looking to the rest of 2022, we anticipate a moderation of the inflation rate when compared to the first quarter of the year but expect that inflation will remain above the levels seen in the previous 10 years, when the annual inflation rate ranged from 0.1% to 2.4%. If inflation is above the levels that the Company anticipates in 2022, gross margins could be below plan and our business, operating results and cash flows may be adversely affected.
Investing in R&D and Enhancing Our Customer Experience
Our performance is dependent on the investments we make in research and development, including our ability to attract and retain highly skilled research and development personnel. We intend to continually develop and introduce innovative new software services, integrate with third-party products and services, mobile applications and other new offerings. If we fail to innovate and enhance our brand and our products, our market position and revenue will likely be adversely affected.
Regulatory Environment
DocGo is subject to federal, state and local regulations including healthcare and emergency medical services laws and regulations and tax laws and regulations. The Company’s current business plan assumes no material change in these laws and regulations. In the event that any such change occurs, compliance with new laws and regulations may significantly affect the Company’s operations and cost of doing business.
Components of Results of Operations
Our business consists of two reportable segments — Transportation Services and Mobile Health services. The Company evaluates the performance of both segments based primarily on results of its operations. Accordingly, other income and expenses not included in results from operations are only included in the discussion of consolidated results of operations.
Revenue
The Company’s revenue consists of services provided by its ambulance Transportation Services segment and its Mobile Health segment.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of revenue generating wages paid to employees, vehicle insurance costs (including insurance premiums and costs incurred under the insurance deductibles), maintenance, and fuel related to Transportation Services, and laboratory fees, facility rent, medical supplies and subcontractors. We expect cost of revenue to continue to rise in proportion to the expected increase in revenue.
Operating Expenses
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expense consists primarily of salaries, bad debt expense, insurance expense, consultant fees, and professional fees for accounting services. We expect our general and administrative expense to increase as we scale up headcount with the growth of our business, and as a result of operating as a public company, including compliance with SEC rules and regulations, audit, additional insurance expenses, investor relations activities, and other administrative and professional services.
Depreciation and Amortization
DocGo depreciates its assets using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Amortization of intangibles consists of amortization of definite-lived intangible assets over their respective useful lives.
32
Legal and Regulatory
Legal and regulatory expenses include legal fees, consulting fees related to healthcare compliance, claims processing fees and legal settlements.
Technology and Development
Technology and development expense, net of capitalization, consists primarily of cost incurred in the design and development of DocGo’s proprietary technology, third-party software and technologies. We expect technology and development expense to increase in future periods to support our growth, including our intent to continue investing in the optimization, accuracy and reliability of our platform and drive efficiency in our operations. These expenses may vary from period to period as a percentage of revenue, depending primarily upon when we may choose to make more significant investments.
Sales, Advertising and Marketing
Our sales and marketing expenses consist of costs directly associated with our sales and marketing activities, which primarily include sales commissions, marketing programs, trade shows, and promotional materials. We expect that our sales and marketing expenses will continue to increase over time as we increase our marketing activities, grow our domestic and international operations, and continue to build brand awareness.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of interest on our outstanding borrowings under our outstanding notes payable and financing obligations.

Consolidated
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, total revenues were $117.9 million, an increase of $68.2 million, or 137%, from the total revenues recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Transportation Services
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Transportation Services revenue totaled $27.8 million and increased by $8.8 million, or 46%, as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was due to increases in both transportation trip volumes and the average price per trip. Volumes increased by approximately 5%, from 46,012 trips for the three months ended March 31, 2021, to 48,110 trips for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in trip volumes is due to a combination of growth in the customer base in certain core markets and entry into new markets in 2021. Our average trip price increased from $283 in the three months ended March 31, 2021, to $353 in the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in the average trip price in the 2022 period reflects a shift in mix toward higher-priced transports, as well as a shift in the customer (payer) mix towards higher-priced transports. The average trip price also benefited from a 5.1% increase in the average Medicare reimbursement rate for ambulance transports. Transportation Services revenues were also driven higher in the first quarter of 2022 by a 201% increase in revenues generated from programs under which DocGo is paid a daily or hourly “standby” rate for the use of a fully staffed and equipped ambulance, which were driven by new customer acquisition and large new projects. These services do not factor in the trip counts or average trip prices mentioned above.
Mobile Health
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Mobile Health revenue totaled $90.1 million, an increase of $59.4 million, or 194%, as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2021. This significant increase was mainly due to the expansion of the services offered by this segment, particularly with respect to COVID-19 related testing and vaccination and other healthcare services revenues included in the Mobile Health segment. This expansion accelerated through 2021 and into 2022 as the Company increased its customer base and geographic reach, while extending several large customer contracts and introducing a broader range of services.
Cost of Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, total cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased by 117%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, while revenue increased by approximately 137%. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue decreased to 66.2% in the first quarter of 2022 from 72.2% in the first quarter of 2021.
In absolute dollar terms, total cost of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $42.1 million from the levels of the three months ended March 31, 2021. This was primarily attributable to an $11.7 million increase in total compensation, reflecting higher headcount for both the Transportation Services and Mobile Health segments; a $22.6 million increase in subcontracted labor, driven mostly by the Mobile Health segment, where revenue increases outpaced the Company’s ability to service such revenue solely with internal resources, temporarily causing the Company to rely increasingly on subcontracted labor; a $6.5 million increase in medical supplies, due to the purchase of COVID-19 test kits and the need for increased personal protective equipment (PPE) and related supplies, and the increased cost thereof as a result of increased demand during the pandemic; and a $3.2 million increase in vehicle costs, driven by a continued increase in the Company’s vehicle fleet and higher fuel and maintenance costs; and a $2.4 million increase in facilities and other costs of sales, relating to the Company’s increased scale and geographic presence. These items were partially offset by a $4.2 million decrease in lab fees related to COVID-19 testing activity, reflecting lower per-test lab fees, and a shift toward rapid tests.
For the Transportation Services segment, cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) in the three months ended March 31, 2022 amounted to $21.5 million, up $6.8 million, or 46%, from the three months ended March 31, 2021. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was unchanged at 77.3% in both periods, as the impact of higher per-trip prices, increased number of standby contracts (for which we are paid a daily or hourly rate) and the overall increase in revenue was offset by the impact of higher hourly wages in certain markets and increased overtime for field employees, and increased fuel costs, as described above.
For the Mobile Health segment, cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) in the three months ended March 31, 2022 amounted to $56.5 million up 167% from $21.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased to 62.7% from 69.0%, due to the increase in revenues, lower average per-test lab fees and the increased number of higher-margin, hourly-based programs in the first quarter of 2022, which outweighed the increased use of higher cost subcontracted labor and significant increases in medical and general supply costs, as described above.
34
Operating Expenses
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $29.8 million of operating expenses compared to $15.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of 90%. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses declined from 31.6% in the first quarter of 2021 to 25.3% in the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to the significant increase in overall revenues described above, coupled with the semi-fixed nature cost of the corporate infrastructure. The increase of $14.1 million related primarily to a $10.4 million increase in payroll due to investments in and expansion of corporate infrastructure to support the revenue growth; a $0.5 million increase in sales and marketing cost, driven by higher sales commissions and increased marketing activity arising from the expansion of the Mobile Health segment; a $0.8 million increase in travel and entertainment expenses, reflecting both the growth of the overall employee base, as well as increased business development related activities for both the Transportation Services and Mobile Health segments; a $0.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization due to an increase in assets to support revenue growth and capitalized software amortization; a $1.0 million increase in legal, accounting and other professional fees related to increased revenue and related contract generation, Directors and Officers insurance and SEC filing-related costs; a $0.5 million increase in office-related expenses, owing to the Company’s ongoing growth and geographic expansion; a $0.5 million increase in IT infrastructure, driven by the Company’s business and headcount expansion; a $0.5 million increase in bad debt expense, in line with the increase in overall revenues during the period. These were partially offset by a $0.7 million net decline in insurance expenses, reflecting the Company’s new captive insurance program for automobile and workers compensation insurance.
For the Transportation Services segment, operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $15.6 million, up $7.0 million, or 82%, from the three months ended March 31, 2021. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 56.1% from 45.2% in the prior year period, despite the increase in Transportation Services revenues, due to a significant increase in corporate infrastructure, all of which is allocated to the Transportation Services segment. The increased operating expenses, in dollar terms, in the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily reflected higher costs for payroll, travel and entertainment, professional fees and depreciation, as described above.
For the Mobile Health segment, operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $14.2 million, compared to operating expenses of $7.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 15.7% from 23.1% in 2020, despite significant expenditures made in the expansion of services and geographic areas of operation, as well as the buildout of the Mobile Health management infrastructure throughout 2021 and the early part of 2022, due to the faster rate of increase in Mobile Health revenues. The increased operating expenses, in dollar terms, in 2021 were primarily driven by higher costs for payroll, subcontracted labor costs, travel and entertainment, marketing and IT infrastructure, and facilities costs, as described above.
Interest Income/(Expense), Net
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $135,606 of net interest expense compared to $115,009 of interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in net interest expense in the current period reflects an increase in payments made for leased vehicles, as the Company’s fleet expanded. This outweighed the impact of higher interest income in the 2022 period, resulting from an increase in the Company’s cash balances in income-bearing accounts.
Gain/(loss) on Remeasurement of Warrant Liabilities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a loss of $58,749 from the remeasurement of warrant liabilities, The warrants are marked-to-market in each reporting period, and this gain reflects the decline in DocGo’s stock price relative to the beginning of the period. No gain or loss was recorded in relation to the remeasurement of warrant liabilities in the first quarter of 2021.
Gain/(Loss) on Equity Method Investment
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a loss of $83,341 representing its share of the losses incurred by an entity in which the Company has a minority interest, which is accounted for under the equity method. This investment was made in the second half of 2021, and as such, no gain or loss was recorded in relation to an equity method investment in the first quarter of 2021.
35
Income Tax (Expense)/Benefit
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.4 million, compared to an income tax expense of $10,029 in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in income tax expense resulted from the higher level of pretax income as well as state income taxes in jurisdictions the Company entered during the past year.
Noncontrolling Interest
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of approximately $1.3 million, compared to a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increased loss reflected ongoing investments in new markets that were entered into during 2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since inception, DocGo has completed three equity financing transactions that served as the Company’s principal source of liquidity, with minimal debt incurred. Generally, the Company utilized equity raised to finance operations during its development phase, investments in assets, ambulance operating licenses and funding working capital. The Company has also funded these activities through operating cashflows. In November 2021, upon the completion of the merger between Motion Acquisition Corp. and Ambulnz, Inc., the Company received proceeds of approximately $158.1 million, net of transaction expenses. Although the Company generated positive net income in the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating cash flows may not be sufficient to meet immediate obligations arising from current operations. For example, as the business has grown, the Company’s expenditures for human capital and supplies has expanded accordingly, and the timing of the payments for payroll and to associated vendors, compared to the timing of receipts of cash from customers frequently results in the Company using existing cash balances to fund these working capital needs. The Company’s working capital needs depend on many factors, including the overall growth of the company and the various payment terms that are negotiated with customers and vendors. Future capital requirements depend on many factors, including potential acquisitions, our level of investment in technology, and rate of growth in existing and into new markets. The cost of ongoing technology development is another factor that is considered. Capital requirements might also be affected by factors which the Company cannot control, such as interest rates, and other monetary and fiscal policy changes to the manner in which the Company currently operates. Additionally, as the impact of the COVID-19 on the economy and operations evolves, the Company will continuously assess its liquidity needs. If the Company’s growth rate is higher than is currently anticipated, resulting in greater-than-anticipated capital requirements, the Company might need or choose to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings.
Considering the foregoing, DocGo anticipates that existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, future expected cash flows generated from our operations and an available line of credit (as discussed in Note 8, “Line of Credit” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) will be sufficient to satisfy operating requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating activities provided $18.2 million of cash, aided by net income of $9.4 million. Non-cash charges amounted to $4.8 million and included $1.6 million in depreciation of property and equipment and right-of-use assets, $0.6 million from amortization of intangible assets, $1.2 million in bad debt expense primarily related to a provision for potential uncollectible accounts receivable and $1.4 million of stock compensation expense. Changes in assets and liabilities resulted in approximately $4.1 million in additional operating cash flow, as a $1.1 million decrease in accounts receivable, a $2.2 million decrease in other assets and a $3.1 increase in accrued liabilities outweighed the effect of a $1.5 million increase in prepaid expenses and a $0.7 million decline in accounts payable. Operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2022 was aided by collections of large accounts receivable from invoices generated in the fourth quarter of 2021.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, operating activities used $1.4 million of cash and primarily resulted from a net loss of $2.0 million and changes in assets and liabilities, which were partially offset by non-cash charges of $2.7 million. The non-cash items included $0.7 million of bad debt expense primarily related to a provision for potential uncollectible accounts receivable, $1.2 million resulting from the depreciation of property and equipment and right-of-use assets, $0.4 million from amortization of intangible assets, and $0.4 million of stock compensation expense. Changes in assets and liabilities resulted in approximately $2.0 million in negative operating cash flow and were primarily driven by a $7.1 million increase in accounts receivable and a $1.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, which were partially offset by a $6.2 million increase in combined accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Investing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, investing activities used $1.1 million of cash and primarily consisted of the acquisition of property and equipment totaling $0.5 million and the acquisition of intangibles in the amount of $0.6 million to support the ongoing growth of the business.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, investing activities used $1.3 million of cash and primarily consisted of the acquisition of property and equipment totaling $0.8 million and the acquisition of intangibles in the amount of $0.5 million to support growth of new transportation and mobile health markets.
Financing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, financing activities provided $2.5 million of cash, due to $1.0 million in proceeds from the Company’s revolving credit line, $2.1 million in non-controlling interest contributions and $0.4 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options, which were partly offset by $0.6 million in payments on obligations under the terms of finance leases, $0.1 million in repayments of notes payable, a reduction of $0.2 million in amounts due to seller and a $0.1 million of equity cost.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, financing activities used $0.5 million of cash, as noncontrolling interest contributions were outweighed by repayments made on notes payable and finance leases.

Critical Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. Noncontrolling interests (“NCI”) on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements represent the portion of consolidated joint ventures and a variable interest entity in which the Company does not have direct equity ownership. Accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated.
Pursuant to the Business Combination, the merger between Motion and Ambulnz, Inc. was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP (the “Reverse Recapitalization”). Under this method of accounting, Motion was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Reverse Recapitalization was treated as the equivalent of Ambulnz, Inc. stock for the net assets of Motion, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Motion are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations prior to the Reverse Recapitalization are those of Ambulnz, Inc. The shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share available for common stockholders, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio (645.1452 to 1) established in the Business Combination. Further, Ambulnz, Inc. was determined to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction, as such, the acquisition is considered a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”) and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of DocGo Inc and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company holds a variable interest in MD1 Medical Care P.C. (“MD1”), which contracts with physicians and other health professionals in order to provide services to the Company. MD1 is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”) since it does not have sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. An enterprise having a controlling financial interest in a VIE must consolidate the VIE if it has both power and benefits—that is, it has (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impacts the VIE’s economic performance (power) and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE (benefits). The Company has the power and rights to control all activities of MD1 and funds and absorbs all losses of the VIE and appropriately consolidates MD1.
Net loss for the VIE was $85,379 as of March 31, 2022. The VIE’s total assets, all of which were current, amounted to $509,769 on March 31, 2022. Total liabilities, all of which were current for the VIE, was $1,020,254 on March 31, 2022. The VIE’s total stockholders’ deficit was $510,485 on March 31, 2022.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for its business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations (“ASC 805-10”), which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including NCI, are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill.
Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date and any changes in fair value after the acquisition date are accounted for as measurement-period adjustments. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration resulting from events after the acquisition date, such as earn-outs, are recognized as follows: 1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or 2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. For transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The Company capitalizes acquisition-related costs and fees associated with asset acquisitions and immediately expenses acquisition-related costs and fees associated with business combinations.
The estimated fair value of net assets to be acquired, including the allocation of the fair value to identifiable assets and liabilities, is determined using established valuation techniques. Management uses assumptions on the basis of historical knowledge of the business and projected financial information of the target. These assumptions may vary based on future events, perceptions of different market participants and other factors outside the control of management, and such variations may be significant to estimated values.
39
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, consisting primarily of operating licenses, are not amortized, but are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In assessing the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company makes assumptions regarding the estimated future cash flows, including forecasted revenue growth, projected gross margin and the discount rate to determine the fair value of these assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges against these assets in the reporting period in which the impairment is determined.
The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is one level below the operating segment. The Company has the option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary before performing the one-step quantitative assessment. If as a result of the qualitative assessment, it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative impairment test will be required. Otherwise, no further testing will be required. If a quantitative impairment test is performed, the Company compares the fair values of the applicable reporting units with their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. Estimating the fair value of the reporting units requires significant judgment by management. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, goodwill impairment is recognized.
Any excess in carrying value over the estimated fair value is recorded as impairment loss and charged to the results of operations in the period such determination is made. For the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, management determined that there was no impairment loss required to be recognized in the carrying value of goodwill or other intangible assets. The Company selected December 31 as its annual testing date.
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), as amended.
To determine revenue recognition for contractual arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify each contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the relevant performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services the Company provides to the customer.
The Company generates revenues from the provision of (1) ambulance and medical transportation services (“Transportation Services”) and (2) Mobile Health services. The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company as the performance obligations are fulfilled, therefore the Company satisfies performance obligations immediately. The Company has utilized the “right to invoice” expedient which allows an entity to recognize revenue in the amount of consideration to which the entity has the right to invoice when the amount that the Company has the right to invoice corresponds directly to the value transferred to the customer. Revenues are recorded net of an estimated contractual allowances for claims subject to contracts with responsible paying entities. The Company estimates contractual allowances at the time of billing based on contractual terms, historical collections, or other arrangements. All transaction prices are fixed and determinable which includes a fixed base rate, fixed mileage rate and an evaluation of historical collections by each payer.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or its tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided, if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740. When uncertain tax positions exist, the Company recognizes the tax benefit of tax positions to the extent that the benefit would more likely than not be realized assuming examination by the taxing authority. The determination as to whether the tax benefit will more likely than not be realized is based upon the technical merits of the tax position as well as consideration of the available facts and circumstances. The Company recognizes any interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on our management’s evaluation (with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We and other participants in the healthcare industry are subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business. Descriptions of certain legal proceedings to which we are a party are contained in Note 18, “Legal Proceedings” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
From time to time, in the ordinary course of business and like others in our industry, we receive requests for information from government agencies in connection with their regulatory or investigational authority. These requests can include subpoenas or demand letters for documents to assist the government in audits or investigations. We review such requests and notices and take what we believe to be appropriate action. We have been subject to certain requests for information and investigations in the past and could be subject to such requests for information and investigations in the future.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Factors that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations are described in the 2021 Form 10-K. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition and/or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2021 Form 10-K, other than the inflation rate risk discussed below.
Inflation Rate Risk
Beginning in April 2021, the inflation rate in the US, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has steadily increased. In 2019, the inflation rate was approximately 1.8%, while it dropped to approximately 1.2% in 2020. These data are reported monthly, showing year-over-year changes in prices across a basket of goods and services. For 2021, inflation increased from the 1.4%-2.6% range in the first quarter, to 4.2% in April, and was in the 5.0% range through the end of the third quarter of 2021, before increasing to the 6.0%-7.0% range in the fourth quarter. For the full year, the inflation rate was 4.7% in 2021, the highest annual rate since the 5.4% rate recorded in 1990. The inflation rate continued to increase throughout the first quarter of 2022, reaching approximately 8.5% in March 2022. The increased inflation rate has had an impact on the Company’s expenses in several areas, including wages, fuel and medical and other supplies. This has compressed gross profit margins, as the Company is generally unable to pass these higher costs on to its customers, particularly in the short term. Looking to the rest of 2022, we anticipate a moderation of the inflation rate when compared to the first quarter of the year, but expect that inflation will remain above the levels seen in the previous 10 years, when the annual inflation rate ranged from 0.1% to 2.4%. If inflation is above the levels that the Company anticipates in 2022, gross margins could be below plan and our business, operating results and cash flows may be adversely affected.

The Exercise Price may be paid in Common Stock, cash or a combination thereof, including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the Common Stock issuable under the Option, the delivery of previously owned Common Stock, withholding of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of the Option (but only to the extent share withholding is made available to the Participant by the Company), or in such other manners as may be permitted by the Committee.
(d) Fractional shares may not be exercised. Shares of Common Stock will be issued as soon as practical after exercise. Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock during any period when the Company determines that the exercisability of the Option or the delivery of shares of Common Stock hereunder would violate Company policy or any federal, state or other applicable laws.
4. Expiration of Option
The Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable as of the earlier of (i) the Expiration Date set forth in the Grant Notice or (ii) the date specified below in connection with the Participant’s Termination of Employment:
(a) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is as a result of the Participant’s death or Disability, subject to the Participant’s (or the Participant’s personal representative’s) execution and nonrevocation of a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company, (i) the entire Option shall be fully vested and (ii) the Participant may exercise any portion of the Option until the first anniversary of the Termination Date (as defined below).
(b) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is as a result of an Involuntary Termination (as defined below) on or within 24-months following a Change in Control, subject to the Participant’s execution and nonrevocation of a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company, (i) the entire Option shall be fully vested and (ii) the Participant may exercise any portion of the Option until the date that is 90 days following the Termination Date.
(c) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is by the Company for Cause, the entire Option, whether or not then vested and exercisable, shall be immediately forfeited and canceled as of the Termination Date.
(d) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is for any reason other than as set forth in Section 4(a), 4(b), or 4(c), the Participant may exercise any portion of the Option that is vested and exercisable at the time of such Termination of Employment until the date that is 90 days following the Termination Date.
A-2
(e) Any portion of the Option that is not vested and exercisable at the time of a Termination of Employment (after taking into account any accelerated vesting under this Section 4, Section 15 of the Plan or any other agreement between the Participant and the Company) shall be forfeited and canceled as of the Termination Date.
(f) As used in this Section 4:
(i) “Involuntary Termination” means a Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause (and not as a result of death or Disability).
(ii) “Termination Date” means the date of the Participant’s Termination of Employment.
5. Restrictions on Resales of Shares Acquired Pursuant to Option Exercise
The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Common Stock issued as a result of the exercise of the Option, including (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other option holders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.
6. Income Taxes
The Company shall not deliver shares of Common Stock in respect of the exercise of any Option unless and until the Participant has made arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy applicable withholding tax obligations. Unless the Participant pays the withholding tax obligations to the Company by cash or check in connection with the exercise of the Option (including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the Common Stock issuable under the Option), withholding may be effected, at the Company’s election, withholding Common Stock issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option (provided that shares of Common Stock may be withheld only to the extent that such withholding will not result in adverse accounting treatment for the Company). The Participant acknowledges that the Company shall have the right to deduct any taxes required to be withheld by law in connection with the exercise of the Option from any amounts payable by it to the Participant (including future cash wages).
7. Non-Transferability of Option
Except as permitted by the Committee or as permitted under the Plan, the Participant may not assign or transfer the Option to anyone other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and the Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant during his or her lifetime. The Company may cancel the Participant’s Option if the Participant attempts to assign or transfer it in a manner inconsistent with this Section 7.
A-3
8. Other Agreements Superseded`
The Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Covenants Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Option are superseded; provided, however, that the terms of the Covenants Agreement are in addition to and complement (and do not replace or supersede) all other agreements and obligations between the Company and any of its affiliates and the Participant with respect to noncompetition, nonsolicitation and noninterference.
9. Limitation of Interest in Shares Subject to Option
Neither the Participant (individually or as a member of a group) nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Participant shall have any right, title, interest, or privilege in or to any shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Grant Notice or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon exercise of the Option or any part of it. Nothing in the Plan, in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason.
10. No Liability of Company
The Company and any affiliate which is in existence or hereafter comes into existence shall not be liable to the Participant or any other person as to: (a) the non-issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder; and (b) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by the Participant or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Option granted hereunder.
11. General
(a) In the event that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.
(b) The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect. Words in the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, and where appropriate, the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. The use herein of the word “including” following any general statement, term or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation”, “but not limited to”, or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. References herein to any agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof and not prohibited by the Plan or these Standard Terms and Conditions.
A-4
(c) These Standard Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.
(d) These Standard Terms and Conditions shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.
(e) In the event of any conflict between the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Grant Notice and these Standard Terms and Conditions shall control. In the event of any conflict between the Grant Notice and these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Grant Notice shall control.
(f) All questions arising under the Plan or under these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be decided by the Committee in its total and absolute discretion.
12. Electronic Delivery

A-5
EXHIBIT B
COVENANTS AGREEMENT
As a condition to the receipt of the Option grants pursuant to the Grant Notice to which this Covenants Agreement is attached and in consideration of the Participant’s continued employment with the Company, the Participant hereby confirms the Participant’s agreement as follows:
1. General
The Participant’s employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust between the Company and the Participant with respect to confidential information of the Company. This Covenants Agreement is subject to the terms of the Standard Terms and Conditions attached as Exhibit A to the Grant Notice to which this Covenants Agreement is attached; provided however, that in the event of any conflict between the Standard Terms and Conditions and this Covenants Agreement, this Covenants Agreement shall control.
2. Definitions
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the DocGo Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time.
3. COMPETITION
During the term of the Participant’s employment by the Company and for twelve (12) months thereafter, the Participant shall not (except on behalf of the Company) directly or indirectly, whether as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, proprietor, associate, representative, consultant, or in any capacity whatsoever engage in, become financially interested in, be employed by or have any business connection with any other person, corporation, firm, partnership or other entity whatsoever which compete directly with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, throughout the world, in any line of business engaged in (or planned to be engaged in as of the Termination Date) by the Company; provided, however, that anything above to the contrary notwithstanding, the Participant may own, as a passive investor, securities of any publicly-traded competitor corporation, so long as the Participant’s direct holdings in any one such corporation do not, in the aggregate, constitute more than 1% of the voting stock of such corporation.
4. NON-INTERFERENCE
The Participant shall not, during the term of the Participant’s employment by the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, except in the furtherance of the Participant’s duties hereunder, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, (a) solicit, aid or induce any customer of the Company or its subsidiaries to purchase goods or services then sold by the Company or its subsidiaries from another person, firm, corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other person or entity in identifying or soliciting any such customer, (b) solicit, aid or induce any employee, representative or agent of the Company or its subsidiaries to leave such employment or retention or to accept employment with or render services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity unaffiliated with the Company, or hire or retain any such employee, representative or agent, or take any action to materially assist or aid any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in identifying, hiring or soliciting any such employee, representative or agent, or (c) interfere, or aid or induce any other person or entity in interfering, with the relationship between the Company and its subsidiaries and any of their respective vendors, joint venturers or licensors in a material way. An employee, representative or agent shall be deemed covered by this Section 4 while so employed or retained and for a period of six (6) months thereafter.
Exhibit B
Covenants Agreement
5. REFORMATION/MODIFICATION
The covenants in Sections 2 and 3 are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant (or portion thereof) shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant (or portion thereof). If it is determined a court of competent jurisdiction in any state that any restriction in Section 2 or Section 3 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of that state, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the arbitrator or the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that state.
6. REMEDIES
The Participant’s obligations under this Covenants Agreement shall survive termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company for any reason. Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Company and its affiliates as a result of a breach or threatened breach of the covenants set forth in Section 2 and Section 3, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused to the Company and its affiliates for which they would have no other adequate remedy, the Participant acknowledges that a remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach by Executive of Section 2 or Section 3, would be inadequate, and the Participant therefore agrees that the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in case of any such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security. The aforementioned equitable relief shall not be the Company’s or any of its affiliates’ exclusive remedy for a breach but instead shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Company and each of its affiliates at law and equity.
7. CHOICE OF LAW, Jurisdiction and Venue
All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Covenants Agreement will be governed by the law of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. With respect to any claim or dispute related to or arising under this Covenants Agreement, the parties hereby consent to the the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of the state and federal courts (as applicable) located in Delaware.
8. Assignment; Inurement
Neither this Covenants Agreement nor any duties or obligations under this Covenants Agreement may be assigned by the Participant without the prior written consent of the Company. The Participant understands and agrees that the Company may freely assign this Covenants Agreement. This Covenants Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the permitted assigns, successors in interest, personal representatives, estates, heirs, and legatees of each of the parties hereto. Any assignment in violation of this Section 8 shall be null and void.
9. Acknowledgment
PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, IN EXECUTING THE GRANT NOTICE TO WHICH THIS COVENANTS AGREEMENT IS ATTACHED, PARTICIPANT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK THE ADVICE OF INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, AND EMPLOYEE HAS READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL OF THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS COVENANTS AGREEMENT. THIS COVENANTS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AGAINST ANY PARTY BY REASON OF THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION HEREOF.

2021 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
STANDARD
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS
These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to the Options granted pursuant to DocGo Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which are identified as incentive stock options and are evidenced by a Grant Notice or an action of the Committee that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions. In addition to these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Option shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.
1. Terms of Option
DocGo Inc. (the “Company”) has granted to the Participant named in the Grant Notice provided to said Participant herewith (the “Grant Notice”) an Incentive Stock Option (the “Option”) to purchase up to the number of shares of Common Stock at an exercise price per share, each as set forth in the Grant Notice. The Option is subject to the conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, and the Plan. For purposes of these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Grant Notice, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary.
2. INCENTIVE Stock Option
The Option is intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and will be interpreted accordingly. Section 422 of the Code provides, among other things, that the Optionee shall not be taxed upon the exercise of a stock option that qualifies as an incentive stock option provided the Optionee does not dispose of the shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of such option until the later of two years after such option is granted to the Optionee and one year after such option is exercised. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Section 422 of the Code provides that incentive stock options (including, possibly, the Option) shall not be treated as incentive stock options if and to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of shares of Common Stock (determined as of the time of grant) with respect to which such incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its subsidiaries) exceeds $100,000, taking options into account in the order in which they were granted. Thus, if and to the extent that any shares of Common Stock issued under a portion of the Option exceeds the foregoing $100,000 limitation, such shares shall not be treated as issued under an incentive stock option pursuant to Section 422 of the Code.
Exhibit A
Standard Terms and Conditions for
Incentive Stock Options
3. Exercise of Option
(a) The Option shall not be exercisable as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice. After the Grant Date, to the extent not previously exercised, and subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Option shall be exercisable only to the extent it becomes vested, as described in the Grant Notice or the terms of the Plan, to purchase up to that number of shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Grant Notice; provided, that (except as set forth in Section 4(a) below) the Participant remains employed with the Company and does not experience a Termination of Employment. The vesting period and/or exercisability of an Option may be adjusted by the Committee to reflect the decreased level of employment during any period in which the Participant is on an approved leave of absence or is employed on a less than full time basis.
(b) To exercise the Option (or any part thereof), the Participant shall deliver to the Company a “Notice of Exercise” in a form specified by the Committee, specifying the number of whole shares of Common Stock the Participant wishes to purchase and how the Participant’s shares of Common Stock should be registered (in the Participant’s name only or in the Participant’s and the Participant’s spouse’s names as community property or as joint tenants with right of survivorship).
(c) The exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of the Option is set forth in the Grant Notice. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock until the Participant shall have paid the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Common Stock. The Exercise Price may be paid in Common Stock, cash or a combination thereof, including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the Common Stock issuable under the Option, the delivery of previously owned Common Stock, withholding of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of the Option (but only to the extent share withholding is made available to the Participant by the Company), or in such other manners as may be permitted by the Committee.
(d) Fractional shares may not be exercised. Shares of Common Stock will be issued as soon as practical after exercise. Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock during any period when the Company determines that the exercisability of the Option or the delivery of shares of Common Stock hereunder would violate Company policy or any federal, state or other applicable laws.
4. Expiration of Option
The Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable as of the earlier of (i) the Expiration Date set forth in the Grant Notice or (ii) the date specified below in connection with the Participant’s Termination of Employment:
(a) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is as a result of the Participant’s death or Disability, subject to the Participant’s (or the Participant’s personal representative’s) execution and nonrevocation of a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company, (i) the entire Option shall be fully vested and (ii) the Participant may exercise any portion of the Option until the first anniversary of the Termination Date (as defined below).
A-2
(b) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is as a result of an Involuntary Termination (as defined below) on or within 24-months following a Change in Control, subject to the Participant’s execution and nonrevocation of a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company, (i) the entire Option shall be fully vested and (ii) the Participant may exercise any portion of the Option until the date that is 90 days following the Termination Date.
(c) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is by the Company for Cause, the entire Option, whether or not then vested and exercisable, shall be immediately forfeited and canceled as of the Termination Date.
(d) If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is for any reason other than as set forth in Section 4(a), 4(b), or 4(c), the Participant may exercise any portion of the Option that is vested and exercisable at the time of such Termination of Employment until the date that is 90 days following the Termination Date.
(e) Any portion of the Option that is not vested and exercisable at the time of a Termination of Employment (after taking into account any accelerated vesting under this Section 4, Section 15 of the Plan or any other agreement between the Participant and the Company) shall be forfeited and canceled as of the Termination Date.
(f) As used in this Section 4:
(i) “Involuntary Termination” means a Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause (and not as a result of death or Disability).
(ii) “Termination Date” means the date of the Participant’s Termination of Employment.
5. Restrictions on Resales of Shares Acquired Pursuant to Option Exercise
The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Common Stock issued as a result of the exercise of the Option, including (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other option holders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.
6. Income Taxes
The Company shall not deliver shares of Common Stock in respect of the exercise of any Option unless and until the Participant has made arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy applicable withholding tax obligations. Unless the Participant pays the withholding tax obligations to the Company by cash or check in connection with the exercise of the Option (including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the Common Stock issuable under the Option), withholding may be effected, at the Company’s election, withholding Common Stock issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option (provided that shares of Common Stock may be withheld only to the extent that such withholding will not result in adverse accounting treatment for the Company). The Participant acknowledges that the Company shall have the right to deduct any taxes required to be withheld by law in connection with the exercise of the Option from any amounts payable by it to the Participant (including future cash wages).
A-3
7. Non-Transferability of Option
Except as permitted by the Committee or as permitted under the Plan, the Participant may not assign or transfer the Option to anyone other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and the Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant during his or her lifetime. The Company may cancel the Participant’s Option if the Participant attempts to assign or transfer it in a manner inconsistent with this Section 7.
8. Other Agreements Superseded`
The Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Covenants Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Option are superseded; provided, however, that the terms of the Covenants Agreement are in addition to and complement (and do not replace or supersede) all other agreements and obligations between the Company and any of its affiliates and the Participant with respect to noncompetition, nonsolicitation and noninterference.
9. Limitation of Interest in Shares Subject to Option
Neither the Participant (individually or as a member of a group) nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Participant shall have any right, title, interest, or privilege in or to any shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Grant Notice or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon exercise of the Option or any part of it. Nothing in the Plan, in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason.
10. No Liability of Company
The Company and any affiliate which is in existence or hereafter comes into existence shall not be liable to the Participant or any other person as to: (a) the non-issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder; and (b) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by the Participant or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Option granted hereunder.

References herein to any agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof and not prohibited by the Plan or these Standard Terms and Conditions.
(c) These Standard Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.
(d) These Standard Terms and Conditions shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

6. REMEDIES
The Participant’s obligations under this Covenants Agreement shall survive termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company for any reason. Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Company and its affiliates as a result of a breach or threatened breach of the covenants set forth in Section 2 and Section 3, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused to the Company and its affiliates for which they would have no other adequate remedy, the Participant acknowledges that a remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach by Executive of Section 2 or Section 3, would be inadequate, and the Participant therefore agrees that the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in case of any such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security. The aforementioned equitable relief shall not be the Company’s or any of its affiliates’ exclusive remedy for a breach but instead shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Company and each of its affiliates at law and equity.
7. CHOICE OF LAW, Jurisdiction and Venue
All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Covenants Agreement will be governed by the law of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. With respect to any claim or dispute related to or arising under this Covenants Agreement, the parties hereby consent to the the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of the state and federal courts (as applicable) located in Delaware.
8. Assignment; Inurement
Neither this Covenants Agreement nor any duties or obligations under this Covenants Agreement may be assigned by the Participant without the prior written consent of the Company. The Participant understands and agrees that the Company may freely assign this Covenants Agreement. This Covenants Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the permitted assigns, successors in interest, personal representatives, estates, heirs, and legatees of each of the parties hereto. Any assignment in violation of this Section 8 shall be null and void.

DocGo Inc. (the “Company”), pursuant to its 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (as may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Plan”), hereby grants to Holder the number of the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth below, each Restricted Stock Unit being a notional unit representing the right to receive one share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan (the “Restricted Stock Units”). The Restricted Stock Units are subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice and Agreement (this “Award Agreement”), as well as all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, all of which are incorporated herein in their entirety. To the extent that any provisions herein (or portion thereof) conflicts with any provision of the Plan, the Plan shall prevail and control. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan.
Settlement: | Upon vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit, the Company shall settle each Restricted Stock Unit by delivering to Holder one share of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vested as soon as practicable (but not more than thirty (30) days) following each vesting date (the “Original Issuance Date”). The shares of Common Stock issued in respect of the Restricted Stock Units may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Original Issuance Date does not occur (i) during an “open window period” applicable to Holder, (ii) on a date when Holder is permitted to sell shares of Common Stock pursuant to a written plan that meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, as determined by the Company in accordance with the Company’s then-effective policy on trading in Company securities (the “Policy”), or (iii) on a date when Holder is otherwise permitted to sell shares of Common Stock on an established stock exchange or stock market, then such shares will not be delivered on such Original Issuance Date and will instead be delivered on the first business day of the next occurring “open window” period applicable to Holder pursuant to such Policy (regardless of whether Holder has experienced a Termination of Employment at such time) or the next business day when Holder is not prohibited from selling shares of Common Stock on the open market, but in no event later than the later of (x) December 31st of the calendar year in which the Original Issuance Date occurs (that is, the last day of Holder’s taxable year in which the Original Issuance Date occurs), or (y) to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) without penalty, the fifteenth (15th) day of the third calendar month of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Original Issuance Date occurs. |
Termination of Employment: | In the event of Holder’s Termination of Employment for any reason, all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled and forfeited as of the date of such Termination of Employment for no consideration. |
General Unsecured Creditor: | Holder shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company until shares of Common Stock are issued in respect of the Restricted Stock Units. |
Transfer Restrictions: | Holder shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber the Restricted Stock Units before they vest and are settled, and any attempt to sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber the Restricted Stock Units in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void. |
No Rights as a Stockholder: | Neither the Restricted Stock Units nor this Award Agreement shall entitle Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until the shares of Common Stock in respect of the Restricted Stock Units have been issued in settlement thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no dividends (whether in cash or shares of Common Stock) or dividend equivalents shall accrue or be paid with respect to any Restricted Stock Units. |

Restrictive Covenants: | Confidential Information. Holder acknowledges and agrees that the information, observations and data obtained by Holder while employed by the Company or its Affiliates (or by the Person(s) which operated the Company’s business prior to the acquisition thereof by the Company and its Affiliates, if applicable) concerning the business or affairs of the Company or any of its Affiliates (“Confidential Information”) shall be the property of the Company or such Affiliate. Therefore, Holder agrees that Holder shall not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for Holder’s own purposes any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Committee, unless and to the extent that (i) such information becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Holder’s acts or omissions, or (ii) such information is required to be disclosed by law, court order or other legal process; provided, in the case of clause (ii) above, that Holder shall provide the Company with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure of such Confidential Information and cooperate with the Company, at the Company’s expense, in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection of such Confidential Information; provided, further, in the case of clause (ii) above, that Holder shall only disclose such Confidential Information that is explicitly required by applicable law, court order or other legal process, as determined by legal counsel, at the Company’s expense.

During the Restricted Period, Holder shall not directly, or indirectly through another entity, (i) solicit or induce or attempt to solicit or induce any employee of the Company or any Affiliate to leave the employ of the Company or such Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of the Company or any Affiliate at any time from 6 months prior to the date hereof through the Holder’s Termination of Employment, (iii) make any statement or do any act intended to cause existing or potential customers of the Company or any Affiliate to make use of the services or purchase the products of any competitive business or (iv) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any Affiliate to cease doing business with, or materially and adversely change the terms of its business with, the Company or such Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or business relation and the Company or any Affiliate. |

The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan shall be equal to 16,607,894 shares; provided that such number of shares issuable under the Plan will automatically increase on January 1st of each year beginning in 2022 and ending with a final increase on January 1, 2031, in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year (provided that the Board may provide that there will be no January 1st increase in the number of shares issuable for any such year or that the increase in the number of shares issuable for any such year will be a smaller number of shares of Common Stock than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding clause). The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for grant under this Plan and the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards outstanding at the time of any event described in Section 13 shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13. The shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to Awards granted under this Plan may be shares that are authorized and unissued or shares that were reacquired by the Company, including shares purchased in the open market.
(b) Issuance of Shares. For purposes of Section 5(a), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued under this Plan at any time shall equal only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon exercise or settlement of an Award. The aggregate number of shares available for issuance under this Plan at any time shall not be reduced by (i) shares subject to Awards that have been terminated, expired unexercised, forfeited or settled in cash, (ii) shares subject to Awards that have been retained or withheld by the Company in payment or satisfaction of the exercise price, purchase price or tax withholding obligation of an Award, or (iii) shares subject to Awards that otherwise do not result in the issuance of shares in connection with payment or settlement thereof. In addition, shares that have been delivered (either actually or by attestation) to the Company in payment or satisfaction of the exercise price, purchase price or tax withholding obligation of an Award shall be available for issuance under this Plan.
5
(c) Substitute Awards. Substitute Awards shall not reduce the shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan. Additionally, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary, or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines, has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan; provided that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were employees of such acquired or combined company before such acquisition or combination.
(d) Tax Code Limits. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options granted under this Plan shall be equal to 16,607,894, which number shall be calculated and adjusted pursuant to Section 13 only to the extent that such calculation or adjustment will not affect the status of any option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code.
(e) Limits on Awards to Non-Employee Directors. The aggregate dollar value of equity-based (based on the grant date Fair Market Value of equity-based Awards) and cash compensation granted under this Plan or otherwise during any calendar year to any non-employee director shall not exceed $400,000; provided, however, that in the calendar year in which a non-employee director first joins the Board or is first designated as chairman of the Board or lead director, the maximum aggregate dollar value of equity-based and cash compensation granted to the non-employee director may be up to two hundred percent (200%) of the foregoing limit.
6. Administration of the Plan
(a) Administrator of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Board shall fill vacancies on, and from time to time may remove or add members to, the Committee. The Committee shall act pursuant to a majority vote or unanimous written consent. Any power of the Committee may also be exercised by the Board, except to the extent that the grant or exercise of such authority would cause any Award or transaction to become subject to (or lose an exemption under) the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Act. To the extent that any permitted action taken by the Board conflicts with action taken by the Committee, the Board action shall control. To the maximum extent permissible under applicable law, the Committee (or any successor) may by resolution delegate any or all of its authority to one or more subcommittees composed of one or more directors and/or officers of the Company, and any such subcommittee shall be treated as the Committee for all purposes under this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board or the Committee (or any successor) delegates to a subcommittee comprised of one or more officers of the Company (who are not also directors) the authority to grant Awards, the resolution so authorizing such subcommittee shall specify the total number of shares of Common Stock such subcommittee may award pursuant to such delegated authority, and no such subcommittee shall designate any officer serving thereon or any executive officer or non-employee director of the Company as a recipient of any Awards granted under such delegated authority. The Committee hereby delegates to and designates the chief financial officer of the Company (or such other officer with similar authority), and to his or her delegates or designees, the authority to assist the Committee in the day-to-day administration of the Plan and of Awards granted under the Plan, including without limitation those powers set forth in Section 6(b)(iv) through (ix) and to execute agreements evidencing Awards made under this Plan or other documents entered into under this Plan on behalf of the Committee or the Company. The Committee may further designate and delegate to one or more additional officers or employees of the Company or any subsidiary, and/or one or more agents, authority to assist the Committee in any or all aspects of the day-to-day administration of the Plan and/or of Awards granted under the Plan.
6
(b) Powers of Committee. Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall be authorized and empowered to do all things that it determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the administration of this Plan, including, without limitation:
(i) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan and to define terms not otherwise defined herein;
(ii) to determine which persons are Eligible Persons, to which of such Eligible Persons, if any, Awards shall be granted hereunder and the timing of any such Awards;
(iii) to prescribe and amend the terms of the Award Agreements, to grant Awards and determine the terms and conditions thereof;
(iv) to establish and verify the extent of satisfaction of any performance goals or other conditions applicable to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting, exercisability or settlement of any Award;
(v) to prescribe and amend the terms of or form of any document or notice required to be delivered to the Company by Participants under this Plan;
(vi) to determine the extent to which adjustments are required pursuant to Section 13;
(vii) to interpret and construe this Plan, any rules and regulations under this Plan and the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder, and to make exceptions to any such provisions if the Committee, in good faith, determines that it is appropriate to do so;
(viii) to approve corrections in the documentation or administration of any Award; and
(ix) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan.
Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, with respect to any Award that is “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee shall exercise its discretion in a manner that causes such Awards to be compliant with or exempt from the requirements of such Code section. Without limiting the foregoing, unless expressly agreed to in writing by the Participant holding such Award, the Committee shall not take any action with respect to any Award which constitutes (i) a modification of a stock right within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(B) so as to constitute the grant of a new stock right, (ii) an extension of a stock right, including the addition of a feature for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1 (b)(5)(v)(C), or (iii) an impermissible acceleration of a payment date or a subsequent deferral of a stock right subject to Section 409A of the Code within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(E).
The Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, without amendment to the Plan but subject to the limitations otherwise set forth in Section 18, waive or amend the operation of Plan provisions respecting exercise after Termination of Employment. The Committee or any member thereof may, in its sole and absolute discretion and, except as otherwise provided in Section 18, waive, settle or adjust any of the terms of any Award so as to avoid unanticipated consequences or address unanticipated events (including any temporary closure of an applicable stock exchange, disruption of communications or natural catastrophe).
7
(c) Determinations by the Committee. All decisions, determinations and interpretations by the Committee regarding the Plan, any rules and regulations under the Plan and the terms and conditions of or operation of any Award granted hereunder, shall be final and binding on all Participants, beneficiaries, heirs, assigns or other persons holding or claiming rights under the Plan or any Award. The Committee shall consider such factors as it deems relevant, in its sole and absolute discretion, to making such decisions, determinations and interpretations including, without limitation, the recommendations or advice of any officer or other employee of the Company and such attorneys, consultants and accountants as it may select. Members of the Board and members of the Committee acting under the Plan shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the advice of counsel and shall incur no liability except for gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of their duties.
(d) Subsidiary Awards. In the case of a grant of an Award to any Participant employed by a Subsidiary, such grant may, if the Committee so directs, be implemented by the Company issuing any subject shares of Common Stock to the Subsidiary, for such lawful consideration as the Committee may determine, upon the condition or understanding that the Subsidiary will transfer the shares of Common Stock to the Participant in accordance with the terms of the Award specified by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such Award may be issued by and in the name of the Subsidiary and shall be deemed granted on such date as the Committee shall determine.
7. Plan Awards
(a) Terms Set Forth in Award Agreement. Awards may be granted to Eligible Persons as determined by the Committee at any time and from time to time prior to the termination of the Plan. The terms and conditions of each Award shall be set forth in an Award Agreement in a form approved by the Committee for such Award, which Award Agreement may contain such terms and conditions as specified from time to time by the Committee, provided such terms and conditions do not conflict with the Plan. The Award Agreement for any Award (other than Restricted Stock awards) shall include the time or times at or within which and the consideration, if any, for which any shares of Common Stock may be acquired from the Company. The terms of Awards may vary among Participants, and the Plan does not impose upon the Committee any requirement to make Awards subject to uniform terms. Accordingly, the terms of individual Award Agreements may vary.
(b) Performance Criteria. The Committee may establish performance criteria and level of achievement that determine the number of shares of Common Stock, Restricted Stock Units, or cash to be granted, retained, vested, issued or issuable under or in settlement of or the amount payable pursuant to an Award. Such performance-based awards may be identified as “Performance Share,” “Performance Equity,” “Performance Unit” or other such term as chosen by the Committee.
(c) Termination of Employment. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall specify before, at, or after the time of grant of an Award the provisions governing the effect(s) upon an Award of a Participant’s Termination of Employment.
(d) Rights of a Stockholder. A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to shares of Common Stock covered by an Award (including voting rights) until the date the Participant becomes the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to such date, except as provided in Section 10(b) or Section 13 of this Plan or as otherwise provided by the Committee.
8
(e) Minimum Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7(e), no Award shall be granted with terms providing for any right of vesting, exercise or lapse of vesting requirements earlier than a date that is at least one year following the date of grant (or, in the case of vesting based upon performance objectives, exercise and vesting restrictions cannot lapse earlier than the first anniversary measured from the date of the commencement of the period over which performance is measured). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Awards that do not comply with the one year minimum vesting and exercise requirements may be granted: (i) Substitute Awards; (ii) any Awards the Committee may grant up to a maximum of five percent (5%) of the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the Plan (for purposes of counting shares against the five percent (5%) limitation, the share counting rules under Section 5(b) shall apply); and (iii) Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors so long as the Awards provide for a right of exercise or lapse of any vesting obligations no earlier than the next annual stockholder meeting date following the grant date, so long as the next annual stockholder meeting date is at least fifty (50) weeks after the immediately preceding annual stockholder meeting date.
8. Options
(a) Grant, Term and Price. The grant, issuance, retention, vesting and/or settlement of any Option shall occur at such time and be subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee or under criteria established by the Committee, which may include conditions based on continued employment or engagement, passage of time, attainment of age and/or service requirements, and/or satisfaction of performance conditions. The term of an Option shall in no event be greater than ten years; provided, however, the term of an Option (other than an Incentive Stock Option) shall be automatically extended if, at the time of its scheduled expiration, the Participant holding such Option is prohibited by law or the Company’s insider trading policy from exercising the Option, which extension shall expire on the thirtieth (30th) day following the date such prohibition no longer applies. The Committee will establish the price at which Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Option, which, in no event will be less than the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date of grant; provided, however, that the exercise price per share of Common Stock with respect to an Option that is granted as a Substitute Award may be less than the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the date such Option is granted if such exercise price is based on a formula set forth in the terms of the options held by such optionees or in the terms of the agreement providing for such merger or other acquisition that satisfies the requirements of (i) Section 409A of the Code, if such options held by such optionees are not intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, and (ii) Section 424(a) of the Code, if such options held by such optionees are intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. The exercise price of any Option may be paid in cash or such other method as determined by the Committee, including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the shares of Common Stock issuable under an Option, the delivery of previously owned shares of Common Stock or withholding of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise.
(b) No Repricing without Stockholder Approval. Other than in connection with a change in the Company’s capitalization (as described in Section 13), the Committee shall not, without stockholder approval, reduce the exercise price of a previously awarded Option and, at any time when the exercise price of a previously awarded Option is above the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock, the Committee shall not, without stockholder approval, cancel and re-grant or exchange such Option for cash or a new Award with a lower (or no) exercise price.
(c) No Reload Grants. Options shall not be granted under the Plan in consideration for and shall not be conditioned upon the delivery of shares of Common Stock to the Company in payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligation under any other employee stock option.
9
(d) Incentive Stock Options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8, in the case of the grant of an Incentive Stock Option, if the Participant owns stock possessing more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (a “10% Stockholder”), the exercise price of such Option must be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of grant and the Option must expire within a period of not more than five years from the date of grant. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8 to the contrary, options designated as Incentive Stock Options shall not be eligible for treatment under the Code as Incentive Stock Options (and will be deemed to be Nonqualified Stock Options) to the extent that either (a) the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of Common Stock (determined as of the time of grant) with respect to which such Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted, or (b) such Options otherwise remain exercisable but are not exercised within three months (or such other period of time provided in Section 422 of the Code) of separation of service (as determined in accordance with Section 3401(c) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder).
(e) No Stockholder Rights. Participants shall have no voting rights and will have no rights to receive dividends or Dividend Equivalents in respect of an Option or any shares of Common Stock subject to an Option until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.
9. Stock Appreciation Rights
(a) General Terms. The grant, issuance, retention, vesting and/or settlement of any Stock Appreciation Right shall occur at such time and be subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee or under criteria established by the Committee, which may include conditions based on continued employment or engagement, passage of time, attainment of age and/or service requirements, and/or satisfaction of performance conditions. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to Participants from time to time either in tandem with or as a component of Options granted under the Plan (“tandem SARs”) or not in conjunction with other Awards (“freestanding SARs”). Upon exercise of a tandem SAR as to some or all of the shares covered by the grant, the related Option shall be canceled automatically to the extent of the number of shares covered by such exercise. Conversely, if the related Option is exercised as to some or all of the shares covered by the grant, the related tandem SAR, if any, shall be canceled automatically to the extent of the number of shares covered by the Option exercise. Any Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with an Option may be granted at the same time such Option is granted or at any time thereafter before exercise or expiration of such Option, provided that the Fair Market Value of Common Stock on the date of the SAR’s grant is not greater than the exercise price of the related Option. All freestanding SARs shall be granted subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to Options as set forth in Section 8 and all tandem SARs shall have the same exercise price as the Option to which they relate. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 and the immediately preceding sentence, the Committee may impose such other conditions or restrictions on any Stock Appreciation Right as it shall deem appropriate. Stock Appreciation Rights may be settled in Common Stock, cash, Restricted Stock or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.
(b) No Repricing without Stockholder Approval. Other than in connection with a change in the Company’s capitalization (as described in Section 13), the Committee shall not, without stockholder approval, reduce the exercise price of a previously awarded Stock Appreciation Right and, at any time when the exercise price of a previously awarded Stock Appreciation Right is above the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock, the Committee shall not, without stockholder approval, cancel and re-grant or exchange such Stock Appreciation Right for cash or a new Award with a lower (or no) exercise price.
10
(c) No Stockholder Rights. Participants shall have no voting rights and will have no rights to receive dividends or Dividend Equivalents in respect of an Award of Stock Appreciation Rights or any shares of Common Stock subject to an Award of Stock Appreciation Rights until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.
10. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
(a) Vesting and Performance Criteria. The grant, issuance, vesting and/or settlement of any Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall occur at such time and be subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee or under criteria established by the Committee, which may include conditions based on continued employment or engagement, passage of time, attainment of age and/or service requirements, and/or satisfaction of performance conditions. In addition, the Committee shall have the right to grant Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units as the form of payment for grants or rights earned or due under other stockholder-approved compensation plans or arrangements of the Company.
(b) Dividends and Distributions; Dividend Equivalents. Participants in whose name Restricted Stock is granted shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to those shares of Common Stock, unless determined otherwise by the Committee. The Committee will determine whether any such dividends or distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of Restricted Stock and/or subject to the same restrictions on transferability as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were distributed or whether such dividends or distributions will be paid in cash. Any Dividend Equivalents that are granted with respect to any Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be accrued and deferred with respect to such Award and the amount thereof paid and settled upon settlement of the Award of Restricted Stock Units.
(c) Voting Rights. Participants in whose name Restricted Stock Units are granted shall have no voting rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder.
11. Deferral of Payment
The Committee may, in an Award Agreement or otherwise, provide for the deferred delivery of Common Stock or cash upon settlement, vesting or other events with respect to an Award. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event will any election to defer the delivery of Common Stock or any other payment with respect to any Award be allowed if the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the deferral would result in the imposition of the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. No Award shall provide for deferral of compensation that does not comply with Section 409A of the Code. The Company, the Board and the Committee shall have no liability to a Participant, or any other party, if an Award that is intended to be exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A of the Code is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Board or the Committee.
11
12. Conditions and Restrictions Upon Securities Subject to Awards
The Committee may provide that the Common Stock issued upon exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or otherwise subject to or issued under an Award shall be subject to such further agreements, restrictions, conditions or limitations as the Committee in its discretion may specify prior to the exercise of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the grant, vesting or settlement of such Award, including without limitation, conditions on vesting or transferability, forfeiture or repurchase provisions and method of payment for the Common Stock issued upon exercise, vesting or settlement of such Award (including the actual or constructive surrender of Common Stock already owned by the Participant) or payment of taxes arising in connection with an Award. Without limiting the foregoing, such restrictions may address the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Common Stock issued under an Award, including without limitation (i) restrictions under an insider trading policy or pursuant to applicable law, (ii) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by the Participant and holders of other Company equity compensation arrangements, (iii) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers and (iv) provisions requiring Common Stock be sold on the open market or to the Company in order to satisfy tax withholding or other obligations.
13. Adjustment of and Changes in the Stock
(a) The number and kind of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under this Plan (including under any Awards then outstanding), and the number and kind of shares of Common Stock subject to the limits set forth in Section 5 of this Plan, shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee to reflect any reorganization, reclassification, combination of shares, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, dividend or distribution of securities, property or cash (other than regular, quarterly cash dividends), or any other event or transaction that affects the number or kind of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Such adjustment may be designed to comply with Section 424 of the Code or may be designed to treat the shares of Common Stock available under the Plan and subject to Awards as if they were all outstanding on the record date for such event or transaction or to increase the number of such shares of Common Stock to reflect a deemed reinvestment in shares of Common Stock of the amount distributed to the Company’s securityholders. The terms of any outstanding Award shall also be equitably adjusted by the Committee as to price, number or kind of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award, vesting, and other terms to reflect the foregoing events, which adjustments need not be uniform as between different Awards or different types of Awards. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or issuable pursuant to such an adjustment.
(b) In the event there shall be any other change in the number or kind of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or any stock or other securities into which such Common Stock shall have been changed, or for which it shall have been exchanged, by reason of a Change in Control, other merger, consolidation or otherwise, then the Committee shall determine the appropriate and equitable adjustment to be effected, which adjustments need not be uniform between different Awards or different types of Awards. In addition, in the event of such change described in this paragraph, the Committee may accelerate the time or times at which any Award may be exercised, consistent with and as otherwise permitted under Section 409A of the Code, and may provide for cancellation of such accelerated Awards that are not exercised within a time prescribed by the Committee in its sole discretion.
12
(c) Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Award Agreement or another contract, including an employment or services agreement, or under the terms of a transaction constituting a Change in Control, the Committee may provide that any or all of the following shall occur upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment without Cause within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control: (a) in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant shall have the ability to exercise any portion of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right not previously exercisable, (b) in the case of any Award the vesting of which is in whole or in part subject to performance criteria, all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award shall immediately lapse and the Participant shall have the right to receive a payment based on target level achievement or actual performance through a date determined by the Committee, and (c) in the case of outstanding Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units (other than those referenced in subsection (b)), all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award shall immediately lapse. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control in which the acquiring or surviving company in the transaction does not assume or continue outstanding Awards upon the Change in Control, immediately prior to the Change in Control, all Awards that are not assumed or continued shall be treated as follows effective immediately prior to the Change in Control: (a) in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant shall have the ability to exercise such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, including any portion of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right not previously exercisable, (b) in the case of any Award the vesting of which is in whole or in part subject to performance criteria, all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award shall immediately lapse and the Participant shall have the right to receive a payment based on target level achievement or actual performance through a date determined by the Committee, as determined by the Committee, and (c) in the case of outstanding Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units (other than those referenced in subsection (b)), all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award shall immediately lapse. In no event shall any action be taken pursuant to this Section 13(c) that would change the payment or settlement date of an Award in a manner that would result in the imposition of any additional taxes or penalties pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13 to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may provide for the cancellation and cash settlement of all outstanding Awards upon such Change in Control. For the avoidance of doubt, but without limitation of the foregoing, in the case of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other “appreciation” Award whose value is determined by reference to appreciation above an exercise price or base price, the Committee may provide for the cancellation and cash settlement of any such outstanding Award upon a Change in Control in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock upon such Change in Control over the applicable exercise price or base price of such Award multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Award, or if no such excess exists at the time of the Change in Control, such Award may be cancelled upon the Change in Control without any consideration being paid therefor.
(e) The Company shall notify Participants holding Awards subject to any adjustments pursuant to this Section 13 of such adjustment, but (whether or not notice is given) such adjustment shall be effective and binding for all purposes of the Plan.
(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13 to the contrary, an adjustment to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right under this Section 13 shall be made in a manner that will not result in the grant of a new Option or Stock Appreciation Right under Section 409A of the Code.
13
14. Transferability
Each Award may not be sold, transferred for value, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable only by the Participant during his or her lifetime. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) outstanding Options may be exercised following the Participant’s death by the Participant’s beneficiaries or as permitted by the Committee and (ii) a Participant may transfer or assign an Award as a gift to an entity wholly owned by such Participant (an “Assignee Entity”), provided that such Assignee Entity shall be entitled to exercise assigned Options and Stock Appreciation Rights only during lifetime of the assigning Participant (or following the assigning Participant’s death, by the Participant’s beneficiaries or as otherwise permitted by the Committee) and provided further that such Assignee Entity shall not further sell, pledge, transfer, assign or otherwise alienate or hypothecate such Award.
15. Compliance with Laws and Regulations
This Plan, the grant, issuance, vesting, exercise and settlement of Awards hereunder, and the obligation of the Company to sell, issue or deliver shares of Common Stock under such Awards, shall be subject to all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, stock exchange rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental or regulatory agency as may be required. The Company shall not be required to register in a Participant’s name or deliver Common Stock prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of such shares under any foreign, federal, state or local law or any ruling or regulation of any government body which the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable. To the extent the Company is unable to or the Committee deems it infeasible to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares of Common Stock hereunder, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be relieved of any liability with respect to the failure to issue or sell such shares of Common Stock as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. No Option shall be exercisable and no Common Stock shall be issued and/or transferable under any other Award unless a registration statement with respect to the Common Stock underlying such Option is effective and current or the Company has determined, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such registration is unnecessary.
In the event an Award is granted to or held by a Participant who is employed or providing services outside the United States, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, modify the provisions of the Plan or of such Award as they pertain to such individual to comply with applicable foreign law or to recognize differences in local law, currency or tax policy. The Committee may also impose conditions on the grant, issuance, exercise, vesting, settlement or retention of Awards in order to comply with such foreign law and/or to minimize the Company’s obligations with respect to tax equalization for Participants employed outside their home country.
14
16. Withholding
To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, the Committee may and/or a Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise with respect to any Award, or the issuance or sale of any shares of Common Stock. The Company shall not be required to recognize any Participant rights under an Award, to issue shares of Common Stock or to recognize the disposition of such shares of Common Stock until such obligations are satisfied. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, these obligations may or, to the extent required by the Committee, shall be satisfied by the Company withholding cash from any compensation otherwise payable to or for the benefit of a Participant, the Participant directing the Company to withhold a portion of the shares of Common Stock that otherwise would be issued to a Participant under such Award or any other award held by the Participant or by the Participant tendering to the Company cash or shares of Common Stock.
17. Disqualifying Dispositions
Any Participant who shall make a “disposition” (as defined in Section 424 of the Code) of all or any portion of shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within two years from the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option or within one year after the issuance of shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of such Incentive Stock Option shall be required to immediately advise the Company in writing as to the occurrence of the sale and the price realized upon the sale of such shares of Common Stock.
18. Amendment of the Plan or Awards
The Board may amend, alter or discontinue this Plan and the Committee may amend or alter any agreement or other document evidencing an Award made under this Plan but, except as provided pursuant to the provisions of Section 13, no such amendment shall, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company:
(a) increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which Awards may be granted under this Plan;
(b) reduce the price at which Options may be granted below the price provided for in Section 8(a);
(c) reprice outstanding Options or SARs as described in Sections 8(b) and 9(b);
(d) extend the term of this Plan;
(e) change the class of persons eligible to be Participants;
(f) increase the individual maximum limits in Section 5(e); or
(g) otherwise amend the Plan in any manner requiring stockholder approval by law or the rules of any stock exchange or market or quotation system on which the Common Stock is traded, listed or quoted.
No amendment or alteration to the Plan or an Award or Award Agreement shall be made which would materially impair the rights of the holder of an Award, without such holder’s consent, provided that no such consent shall be required if the Committee determines in its sole discretion and prior to the date of any Change in Control that such amendment or alteration either (i) is required or advisable in order for the Company, the Plan or the Award to satisfy any law or regulation or to meet the requirements of or avoid adverse financial accounting consequences under any accounting standard, or (ii) is not reasonably likely to significantly diminish the benefits provided under such Award, or that any such diminishment has been adequately compensated.

19. No Liability of Company
The Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate which is in existence or hereafter comes into existence, the Board and the Committee shall not be liable to a Participant or any other person as to: (a) the non-issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock as to which the Company has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares of Common Stock hereunder; and (b) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person due to the receipt, vesting, exercise or settlement of any Award granted hereunder.
20. Non-Exclusivity of Plan
Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board nor the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or the Committee to adopt such other incentive arrangements as either may deem desirable, including without limitation, the granting of restricted stock, stock options or other equity awards otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.
21. Governing Law
This Plan and any agreements or other documents hereunder shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable federal law. Any reference in this Plan or in the agreement or other document evidencing any Awards to a provision of law or to a rule or regulation shall be deemed to include any successor law, rule or regulation of similar effect or applicability.
22. No Right to Employment, Reelection or Continued Service
Nothing in this Plan or an Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or its Affiliates to terminate any Participant’s employment, service on the Board or service at any time or for any reason not prohibited by law, nor shall this Plan or an Award itself confer upon any Participant any right to continue his or her employment or service for any specified period of time. Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an employment contract with the Company, any Subsidiary and/or its Affiliates. Subject to Sections 4 and 18, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Board without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or its Affiliates.
23. Specified Employee Delay
To the extent any payment under this Plan is considered deferred compensation subject to the restrictions contained in Section 409A of the Code, such payment may not be made to a specified employee (as determined in accordance with a uniform policy adopted by the Company with respect to all arrangements subject to Section 409A of the Code) upon Separation from Service before the date that is six months after the specified employee’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the specified employee’s death). Any payment that would otherwise be made during this period of delay shall be accumulated and paid on the sixth month plus one day following the specified employee’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, as soon as administratively practicable after the specified employee’s death).
16
24. No Liability of Committee Members
No member of the Committee shall be personally liable by reason of any contract or other instrument executed by such member or on his or her behalf in his or her capacity as a member of the Committee nor for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee and each other employee, officer or director of the Company to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be allocated or delegated, against any cost or expense (including counsel fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person’s own fraud or willful bad faith; provided, however, that approval of the Board shall be required for the payment of any amount in settlement of a claim against any such person. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws (as each may be amended from time to time), as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.
25. Severability
If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.
26. Unfunded Plan
The Plan is intended to be an unfunded plan. Participants are and shall at all times be general creditors of the Company with respect to their Awards. If the Committee or the Company chooses to set aside funds in a trust or otherwise for the payment of Awards under the Plan, such funds shall at all times be subject to the claims of the creditors of the Company in the event of its bankruptcy or insolvency.
