Goldman Sachs performed an analysis of the implied present value of an illustrative future value per share of Apria common stock, which is designed to provide an indication of the present value of a theoretical future value of a company’s equity as a function of such company’s financial multiples. Using the Forecasts, Goldman Sachs first calculated illustrative implied future enterprise values of Apria as of September 30 for each of fiscal years 2021, 2022 and 2023 by applying (x) enterprise value to next-twelve-month (“NTM”) Adjusted EBITDA Less Patient Equipment Capex multiples ranging from 9.5x to 11.5x to (y) the estimated NTM Adjusted EBITDA Less Patient Equipment Capex for the NTM beginning on September 30, 2021, September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The enterprise value to NTM Adjusted EBITDA Less Patient Equipment Capex multiples used in this analysis were derived by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account, among other things, current and historical NTM Adjusted EBITDA Less Patient Equipment Capex multiples for Apria. Goldman Sachs then subtracted the net debt of Apria of $385 million as of September 30, 2021, as provided by management of Apria, from the respective illustrative implied future enterprise values in order to derive a range of illustrative implied future equity values for Apria as of September 30 for each of fiscal years 2021, 2022 and 2023. Goldman Sachs then divided such illustrative implied future equity values by the number of 38.59 million fully-diluted shares of Apria common stock outstanding (using the treasury stock method) as of January 5, 2022, as provided by management of Apria, to derive a range of implied future share prices as of September 30, 2021, September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively. Goldman Sachs then discounted such implied future share prices back to September 30, 2021 using an illustrative discount rate of 8.8%, reflecting an estimate of Apria’s cost of equity. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rate by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for Apria, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. This analysis resulted in a range of implied present values of $29.72 to $37.16 per share of Apria common stock.

B. By adding the underlined and bolded text, and removing the strikethrough text, below from the third paragraph under the heading entitled “Illustrative Discounted Cash Flow Analysis”:

Goldman Sachs derived ranges of illustrative enterprise values for Apria by adding the ranges of present values it derived above. Goldman Sachs then subtracted from the range of illustrative enterprise values it derived for Apria the net debt of Apria of $385 million as of September 30, 2021, as provided by the management of Apria, to derive a range of illustrative equity values for Apria. Goldman Sachs then divided the range of illustrative equity values it derived by the number of 38.59 million fully-diluted shares of Apria common stock outstanding (using the treasury stock method) as of January 5, 2022, as provided by the management of Apria, to derive a range of illustrative present values per share of Apria common stock. Using the Forecasts, and as set forth in the January 7 Presentation, this analysis indicated a range of illustrative present values per share of Apria common stock ranging from $31.74 to $43.99, and using the Corrected Forecasts, this analysis indicated a range of illustrative present values per share of Apria common stock ranging from $32.16 to $44.43.

C. By adding the underlined and bolded text and summary table below from the first paragraph under the heading entitled “Premia Paid Analysis”:

Goldman Sachs reviewed and analyzed, using publicly available information, the acquisition premia for transactions announced during the period from January 2017 through December 2021 that involved the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity of a U.S. public company with an enterprise value of $500,000,000 to $2,000,000,000, including: (i) 60 such transactions for the calendar year 2017, (ii) 57 such transactions for the calendar year 2018, (iii) 42 such transactions for the calendar year 2019, (iv) 36 such transactions for the calendar year 2020 and (v) 55 such transactions for the calendar year 2021. For such period, using publicly available information, Goldman Sachs calculated the median, 25th percentile and 75th percentile premiums of the price paid in these 250 transactions relative to the target’s last

undisturbed closing stock price prior to announcement of the transaction. This analysis indicated a median premium of 16%, a 25th percentile premium of 7% and a 75th percentile premium of 25% during such period. Using this analysis, Goldman Sachs applied a reference range of illustrative premiums of 7% to 25% to the undisturbed closing price per share of Apria common stock of $30.18 as of January 5, 2022, and calculated a range of implied equity values per share of Apria common stock of $32.29 to $37.73 per share of Apria common stock. The following table shows a summary of the results of this review:

Entire Period	Premium toUndisturbed ClosingPrice of $30.18 as ofJanuary 5, 2022
Top Quartile		25	%
Median		16	%
Bottom Quartile		7	%
Calendar Years
2017 Median		16	%
2018 Median		21	%
2019 Median		12	%
2020 Median		11	%
2021 Median		19	%

2. The section of the Proxy Statement entitled “Certain Financial Projections” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Under the caption “Financial Projections”, the table and related footnotes on page 56 of the proxy statement are replaced in their entirety as follows:

Financial Projections(1)

Unlevered Free Cash Flow(4)	$	95		$	85		$	109	$	107

(1) Subsequent to the announcement of the merger, on January 14, 2022, as part of an ongoing process to refine its preliminary budget for 2022, members of Apria’s management identified an error in the amount of depreciation and amortization reflected in the Financial Projections for 2022 through 2024. During the preparation of the Financial Projections, Apria’s management increased the amount of projected Patient Equipment Capex reflected in the Financial Projections for 2022 through 2024 as a result of an expected change in Apria’s equipment leasing and ownership practices; however, a

concomitant increase in depreciation (and decrease in cash taxes) was erroneously not reflected in the Financial Projections. This error does not affect any of the figures reflected above except Unlevered Free Cash Flow for 2022, 2023 and 2024, which would have been $88, $110 and $109, respectively, as a result of the decrease in cash taxes. Because of this error, Goldman Sachs reviewed its financial analyses and, if the correct amount of cash taxes had been taken into account, the discounted cash flow analysis reflected in Goldman Sachs’s financial analyses would have resulted in a range of illustrative present values per share of Apria common stock of $32.16 to $44.43 (rather than $31.74 to $43.99), as more fully described in the section of the proxy statement entitled “The Merger Proposal (Proposal 1)—Opinion of Apria’s Financial Advisor”. Nevertheless, on January 21, 2022, Goldman Sachs confirmed to the Apria Board that, had Goldman Sachs performed its financial analyses using the corrected Financial Projections, there would have been no change to the conclusion set forth in the written opinion of Goldman Sachs.

(2) “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income before the impact of interest income, interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization as well as other non-recurring items typically identified in Apria’s financial statements.

(3) “Patient Equipment Capex” is defined as the patient equipment received less the net book value of dispositions of patient equipment.

(4) “Unlevered Free Cash Flow” is defined as EBIT (which is Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation and amortization), less estimated cash taxes, plus depreciation and amortization, less capital expenditures and other cash flow items. The calculation of Unlevered Free Cash Flow was not expressly included in the Financial Projections but was derived from the Financial Projections and is included for reference.
