Re:

Accretive Health, Inc. — Lock-Up Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that you, as representatives (the “Representatives”), propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement on behalf of the several Underwriters named in Schedule II to such agreement (collectively, the “Underwriters”), with Accretive Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and certain stockholders of the Company named in Schedule I to such agreement (the “Selling Stockholders”) providing for a public offering of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), by the Selling Stockholders (the “Shares”) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

In consideration of the agreement by the Underwriters to offer and sell the Shares, and of other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, during the period beginning on and including the date that the SEC declares the Registration Statement effective (the “Effective Date”) and continuing to and including the date 90 days after the date of the final prospectus covering the public offering of the Shares (the “Prospectus”), the undersigned will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any options or warrants to purchase any shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of Common Stock of the Company, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, owned directly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the SEC (collectively, the “Undersigned’s Shares”). This Lock-Up Agreement shall not apply to (i) the entering into a written trading plan designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), provided that no sales are made pursuant to such trading plan during the restricted period referred to in this Lock-Up Agreement, or (ii) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock of the Company or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the closing of the public offering of the Shares, provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, other than a Form 5, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the restricted period referred to in this Lock-Up Agreement in connection with subsequent sales of shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in such open market transactions.

The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Undersigned’s Shares even if such Shares would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include without limitation any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the Undersigned’s Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Undersigned’s Shares may be transferred (i) to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, (ii) as a bona fide gift or gifts, (iii) to any trust, family limited partnership or family limited liability company for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, (iv) by testate or intestate succession, (v) to its limited partners, members or stockholders, or to any corporation, partnership or other business entity that is its affiliate, or (vi) with the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC on behalf of the Underwriters; provided that in the case of any donation, transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (ii) through (v), (a) each donee, distributee or transferee shall agree to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, (b) any such donation, distribution or transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, and (c) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, other than a Form 5, reporting

a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Company, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the restricted period referred to in this Lock-Up Agreement. For purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, beginning on and including the Effective Date and continuing to and including the date 90 days after the date of the Prospectus, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock of the Company or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not restrict the ability of the undersigned to transfer the Undersigned’s Shares to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, whether pursuant to a right of the Undersigned with respect to the registration of such shares or otherwise.

If:

(1) during the last 17 days of the 90-day restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or

(2) prior to the expiration of the 90-day restricted period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 90-day restricted period;

this Lock-Up Agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event; provided, however, that such extension will not apply if, (i) the safe harbor provided by Rule 139 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is available in the manner contemplated by NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) of the FINRA Manual and (ii) within the 3 business days preceding the 15th calendar day before the last day of the 90-day restricted period, the Company delivers to the Representatives a certificate, signed by the Chief Financial Officer or Chief Executive Officer of the Company, certifying on behalf of the Company that the Company’s shares of Common Stock are “actively traded securities” (as defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act), within the meaning of NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) of the FINRA Manual.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this Lock-Up Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the offering of the Shares. The undersigned further understands that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns, provided, however, that if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective prior to June 30, 2011, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof that survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for, and delivery of, the Shares, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Lock-up Agreement.
