We continue to be dependent on HLTH to provide us with services required by us for the operation of our business
 
Some of the administrative services we require continue to be provided to us by HLTH under a Services Agreement. Under the Services Agreement, HLTH provides us with administrative services, including services relating to payroll, accounting, tax planning and compliance, employee benefit plans, legal matters and information processing. As a result, we are dependent on our relationship with HLTH for these important services. We reimburse HLTH under agreed-upon formulas that allocate to us a portion of HLTH’s aggregate costs related to those services. The Services Agreement is for a term of up to five years from the date of our initial public offering; however, we have the option to terminate these services, in whole or in part, at any time we choose to do so, generally by providing, with respect to specified services or groups of services, 60 days’ notice and, in some cases, paying a termination fee of not more than $30,000 to cover the costs of HLTH relating to the termination.

The costs we are charged under the Services Agreement are not necessarily indicative of the costs that we would incur if we had to provide the services on our own or contract for them with third parties on a stand-alone basis. With respect to most of the services provided under the Services Agreement, we believe that it is likely that it would cost us more to provide them or contract for them on our own because we benefit from economies of scale.
