AMERICARE under this Agreement shall become non-exclusive and this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, if AMERICARE's exclusive rights become non-exclusive
for failure to meet the Minimum Performance Obligations during Period 1,
Period 2, Period 3 or Period 4 but AMERICARE subsequently meets the
Minimum Performance Obligation before CYBERCARE or INTERNATIONAL have
entered into a written agreement granting a third party similar
non-exclusive rights granted to AMERICARE under this agreement,
AMERICARE's rights under this Agreement shall automatically revert to the
original exclusive rights granted hereunder. If CYBERCARE grants
non-exclusive rights to a third party in accordance with this SECTION 9.3,
such rights shall be granted on terms (including price) no more favorable
than the terms of this Agreement.
-13-

Caregiver Terminals, the Network or any components thereof. CYBERCARE

11. CONSIDERATION.
In consideration of the geographic exclusivity associated with the rights
and licenses granted by CYBERCARE and INTERNATIONAL under this Agreement
as to the Territory, AMERICARE agrees that it will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to secure and close an equity financing in the amount
of at least $30,000,000 U.S. Dollars, within ninety (90) days (the
"Financing Period") following the date of execution of this Agreement.
Upon the closing such financing, AMERICARE will pay to CYBERCARE a fee
(the "GEOGRAPHIC EXCLUSIVITY FEE") in the amount of U.S. $15,000,000 which
shall occur upon the earlier of (a) fifteen (15) days following the date
upon which AMERICARE secures and closes an equity financing, or (b)
promptly upon AMERICARE's First Commercial Operation of The Service in the
Territory. For the avoidance of doubt, "First Commercial Operation of The
Service" shall not include providing demonstrations of the System Units,
Caregiver Terminals or the Service. If AMERICARE shall fail to pay
CYBERCARE the amount described in this SECTION 11 by the 15th day
following the end of the Financing Period, this Agreement shall
automatically terminate, subject to the provisions of SECTION 9.2. The
Parties hereto agree that any contracts and/or payments received pursuant
to agreements entered into prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement
between CYBERCARE and any entity not a party to this Agreement are to be
retained solely by CYBERCARE.
12. ROYALTIES.

INTERNATIONAL under this Agreement, AMERICARE agrees to pay to CYBERCARE
or INTERNATIONAL, commencing promptly upon AMERICARE's First Commercial
Operation of The Service in the Territory and continuing throughout the
term of this Agreement, a royalty in the amount of four percent (4%) of
the Transfer Cost with respect to each System Unit and each Caregiver
Terminal purchased by AMERICARE from CYBERCARE, INTERNATIONAL or any
permitted third party vendor (the "ROYALTY"). AMERICARE shall not owe a
Royalty to CYBERCARE for System Unit or Caregiver Terminal sold by
AMERICARE to the United States Government.
12.2. AMERICARE agrees to keep true and accurate books of account
containing all particulars, which may be necessary for the purpose of
demonstrating the amount of Royalties payable to CYBERCARE and
INTERNATIONAL under this Agreement. AMERICARE further agrees to keep and
provide to CYBERCARE or INTERNATIONAL, at either of such parties' request,
books of account containing all particulars which may be necessary for the
purpose permitting CYBERCARE or INTERNATIONAL, as the case may be, to
comply with any and all applicable reporting obligations under the GTRC
License Agreement. These books of account shall be kept by AMERICARE at
the usual place where its books are kept. Such books shall be retained for
at least three (3) years following the end of the fiscal year to which
they pertain, and shall be available for inspection by an independent
certified public accountant retained by CYBERCARE for the purpose of
substantiating the amount of Royalty payments due to CYBERCARE and/or
INTERNATIONAL. Such inspection shall be (a) subject to the confidentiality
provisions set forth in SECTION 15, (b) conducted no more than once in any
twelve (12) month period, upon reasonable notice to AMERICARE, and (c)
shall not interfere with the daily operations of AMERICARE. CYBERCARE and
INTERNATIONAL shall pay for the services of the independent certified
public accountant unless the independent certified public accountant
determines that AMERICARE has understated the Royalties due to CYBERCARE
or INTERNATIONAL, as the case may be by an amount that is greater than
five percent (5%) of the Royalties due, in which case AMERICARE shall pay
the entire amount charged by the accountant for the accountant's services.
AMERICARE agrees to pay the balance of such Royalties to CYBERCARE or
INTERNATIONAL, as the case may be, within ten (10) business days after
written notice of AMERICARE's understatement. If the inspection reveals
that AMERICARE over paid CYBERCARE or INTERNATIONAL the Royalties due,
CYBERCARE and/or INTERNATIONAL shall repay AMERICARE the amount of the
overpayment within ten (10) business days.
12.3. No later than thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar
quarter, AMERICARE shall pay CYBERCARE or INTERNATIONAL, as applicable,
the Royalties in U.S. Dollars due in connection with each such purchase.
Each Royalty payment shall be accompanied by a written statement,
certified by an officer of AMERICARE, showing the number of System Units
and Caregiver Terminals sold and/or distributed and the computation of
Royalties due.

12.4. AMERICARE shall pay interest on all royalties past due under this
Agreement to CYBERCARE or INTERNATIONAL, as applicable, at a rate of one
and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month, or such lesser amount as may be
required by law. Interest under this subsection shall be computed from the
day on which the royalties are due.
