ARTICLE II

LOAN

Section 2.1. Terms.

(a) The maximum aggregate principal amount of credit extended by Lender to Borrower under this Agreement (the “Loan”) that will be outstanding at any time is Eight Million and No/100 Dollars ($8,000,000.00) (the “Maximum Loan Amount”).

(b) The Loan shall be in the nature of a revolving line of credit, and shall include sums advanced and other credit extended by Lender to or for the benefit of Borrower from time to time under this Article II (each a “Revolving Credit Loan”) up to the Maximum Loan Amount depending upon the availability in the Borrowing Base, the requests of Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 2.2, and on such other basis as Lender may reasonably determine. The outstanding principal balance of the Loan may fluctuate from time to time, to be reduced by repayments made by Borrower (which may be made without penalty or premium), and to be increased by future Revolving Credit Loans, advances and other extensions of credit to or for the benefit of Borrower, and shall be due and payable in full upon the expiration of the Term. For purposes of this Agreement, any determination as to whether there is availability within the Borrowing Base for advances or extensions of credit shall be made by Lender in its sole discretion and is final and binding upon Borrower.

(c) At Closing, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a promissory note evidencing Borrower’s unconditional obligation to repay Lender for Revolving Credit Loans, advances, and other extensions of credit made under the Loan, in the form of Exhibit A to this Agreement (as amended, modified, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Note”), dated the date of this Agreement, payable to the order of Lender in accordance with the terms thereof. The Note shall bear interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Note from the date of the Note until repaid, with interest payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month, at a rate per annum (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360

days) equal to the Base Rate, provided that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default such rate shall be equal to the Default Rate. Each Revolving Credit Loan, advance and other extension of credit shall be deemed evidenced by the Note, which is deemed incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement by this reference.

(d) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, advances under the Loan shall be made against a borrowing base equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of Qualified Accounts due and owing from any Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtor, Insurer or other Account Debtor (the “Borrowing Base”). Lender, in its sole credit judgment, may further adjust the Borrowing Base by applying percentages (known as “liquidity factors”) to Qualified Accounts by payor class based upon Borrower’s actual recent collection history for each such payor class (i.e., Medicare, Medicaid, commercial insurance, etc.) in a manner consistent with Lender’s underwriting practices and procedures. Such liquidity factors may be adjusted by Lender throughout the Term as warranted by collection histories. Lender shall give Borrower written notice of any such change in the liquidity factors.

(e) Due to potential Medicare program reimbursement liabilities against Borrower, $25,000 will be reserved against the initial Borrowing Base (the “Borrowing Base Reserve”). Thereafter, the Borrowing Base Reserve will be increased by an additional $50,000 on December 1, 2000, March 1, 2001, June 1, 2001 and September 1, 2001, and by $25,000 on December 1, 2001 (so that the total Borrowing Base Reserve as of December 1, 2001 is $250,000). Upon Borrower’s receipt of a notice or notices of Medicare program reimbursement liability, Borrower will immediately provide copies of such notice or notices to Lender and Lender shall have the right, in it sole discretion, to further increase the Borrowing Base Reserve to the extent of any such liabilities. Upon Borrower’s satisfaction of such liabilities, the Borrowing Base Reserve will be decreased to the extent of such satisfaction (but not below $250,000).

Section 2.2. Loan Administration. Borrowings under the Loan shall be as follows:

(a) A request for a Revolving Credit Loan shall be made, or shall be deemed to be made, in the following manner: (i) Borrower may give Lender notice of its intention to borrow, in which notice Borrower shall specify the amount of the proposed borrowing and the proposed borrowing date, not later than 2:00 p.m. Eastern time two (2) Business Days before the proposed borrowing date; provided, however, that no such request may be made at a time when there exists an Event of Default; and (ii) the becoming due of any amount required to be paid under this Agreement, whether as interest or for any other Obligation, shall be deemed irrevocably to be a request for a Revolving Credit Loan on the day following the due date in the

To demonstrate the methodology, the following is an illustration of the application of liquidity factors: If Borrower historically collects 75% of invoiced insurance claims within the eligibility period, the liquidity factor would be 75%, so that availability against such class of Accounts in the aggregate would be equal to Qualified Accounts multiplied by a 75% liquidity factor and then multiplied by the 85% advance rate.

amount required to pay such interest or other Obligation if such was not paid by Borrower on the due date.

(b) Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to disburse the proceeds of each Revolving Credit Loan requested, or deemed to be requested, as follows: (i) the proceeds of each Revolving Credit Loan requested under subsection 2.2(a)(i) shall be disbursed by Lender by wire transfer to such bank account as may be agreed upon by Borrower and Lender from time to time or elsewhere if pursuant to written direction from Borrower; and (ii) the proceeds of each Revolving Credit Loan deemed to be requested under subsection 2.2(a)(ii) shall be disbursed by Lender by way of direct payment of the relevant interest or other Obligation.

(c) All Revolving Credit Loans, advances and other extensions of credit to or for the benefit of Borrower shall constitute one general Obligation of Borrower, and shall be secured by Lender’s lien upon all of the Collateral.

(d) Lender shall enter all Revolving Credit Loans as debits to a loan account in the name of Borrower and shall also record in said loan account all payments made by Borrower on any Obligations and all proceeds of Collateral which are indefeasibly paid to Lender, and may record therein, in accordance with customary accounting practice, other debits and credits, including interest and all charges and expenses properly chargeable to Borrower. All collections into the Concentration Account pursuant to Section 2.3 shall be applied first to fees, costs and expenses due and owing under the Loan Documents, then to interest due and owing under the Loan Documents, and then to principal outstanding with respect to Revolving Credit Loans.

(e) Lender will account to Borrower monthly with a statement of Revolving Credit Loans, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and such accounting rendered by Lender shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower, absent manifest error, unless Lender is notified by Borrower in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days of the date each accounting is mailed to Borrower. Such notice shall be deemed an objection to those items specifically objected to in the notice.

Section 2.3. Collections, Disbursements, Borrowing Availability, and Lockbox Account. Borrower shall maintain a lockbox account (the “Lockbox”) with Bank One Arizona, N.A. (the “Lockbox Bank”), subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and shall execute with the Lockbox Bank a Lockbox Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit B, and such other agreements related to the Lockbox Agreement as Lender may require. Borrower shall ensure that all collections of Accounts are paid directly from Account Debtors into the Lockbox, and that all funds paid into the Lockbox are immediately transferred into a depository account maintained by Lender at Bank One, N.A., or such other financial institution as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, by written notice to Borrowers and the Lockbox Bank (the “Concentration Account”). Lender shall apply, on a daily basis, all funds transferred into the Concentration Account pursuant to this Section 2.3 to reduce the outstanding indebtedness under the Loan (in accordance with Section 2.2(d)), and all future Revolving Credit Loans, advances

and other extensions of credit to be made by Lender under the conditions set forth in this Article II. To the extent that any collections of Accounts or proceeds of other Collateral are not sent directly to the Lockbox but are received by Borrower, such collections shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender and immediately remitted, in the form received, to the Lockbox Bank for transfer to the Concentration Account immediately upon receipt by Borrower. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that its compliance with the terms of this Section 2.3 is essential, and that Lender will suffer immediate and irreparable injury and have no adequate remedy at law, if Borrower, through its acts or omissions, causes or permits Account Debtors to pay other than to the Lockbox Account, or if Borrower fails to immediately deposit collections of Accounts or proceeds of other Collateral in the Lockbox Account as herein required. Upon Borrower’s failure to comply with the terms of this Section 2.3, Lender will be entitled, in addition to exercising any other rights and remedies available to it, to assess a non-compliance fee which shall operate to increase the Base Rate by two percent (2%) per annum during any period of non-compliance, Lender shall be entitled to assess such fee whether or not an Event of Default is declared or otherwise occurs. All funds transferred from the Concentration Account for application to Borrower’s indebtedness to Lender shall be applied to reduce the Loan balance, but for purposes of calculating interest shall be subject to a five (5) Business Day clearance period. If as the result of collections of Accounts pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.3 a credit balance exists with respect to the Concentration Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrower, but shall be available to Borrower at any time or times for so long as no Event of Default, and no event or circumstance which, with notice or the passage of time (or both), would constitute an Event of Default, exists.

Section 2.4. Fees.

(b) For so long as the Loan is available to Borrower, Borrower unconditionally shall pay to Lender a monthly usage fee (the “Usage Fee”) equal to 0.0417% of the average amount by which the Maximum Loan Amount exceeds the average amount of the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans during the preceding month.

(d) Borrower shall pay to Lender all reasonable out-of-pocket audit and appraisal fees in connection with audits and appraisals of Borrower’s books and records and such other matters as Lender shall deem appropriate, which shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of the month following the date of issuance by Lender of a request for payment thereof to Borrower.

(e) Borrower shall pay to Lender, on demand, any and all reasonable fees, costs or expenses which Lender or any participant pays to a bank or other similar institution (including, without limitation, any fees paid by Lender to any participant) arising out of or in connection with (i) the forwarding to Borrower or any other Person on behalf of Borrower, by Lender, of proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans made by Lender to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) the depositing for collection, by Lender or any participant, of any check or item of payment received or delivered to Lender or any participant on account of Obligations.

Section 2.7. Interest Rate Limitation. The parties intend to conform strictly to the applicable usury laws in effect from time to time during the term of the Loan. Accordingly, if any transaction contemplated by this Agreement would be usurious under such laws, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement: (i) the aggregate of all interest that is contracted for, charged, or received under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document shall not exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law (the “Highest Lawful Rate”), and any excess shall be promptly credited to Borrower by Lender (or, to the extent that such consideration shall have been paid, such excess shall be promptly refunded to Borrower by Lender); (ii) neither Borrower nor any other Person now or hereafter liable under this Agreement shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in

excess of the Highest Lawful Rate; and (iii) the effective rate of interest shall be reduced to the Highest Lawful Rate. All sums paid, or agreed to be paid, to Lender for the use, forbearance, and detention of the debt of Borrower to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be allocated throughout the full term of the Note until payment is made in full so that the actual rate of interest does not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate in effect at any particular time during the full term thereof. If at any time the rate of interest under the Note exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate of interest to accrue pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the Base Rate shall not reduce the interest to accrue pursuant to this Agreement below the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest accrued equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if a varying rate per annum equal to the interest rate under the Note had at all times been in effect. If the total amount of interest paid or accrued pursuant to this Agreement under the foregoing provisions is less than the total amount of interest that would have accrued if a varying rate per annum equal to the interest rate under the Note had been in effect, then Borrower agrees to pay to Lender an amount equal to the difference between (x) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect, or (B) the amount of interest that would have accrued if a varying rate per annum equal to the interest rate under the Note had at all times been in effect, and (y) the amount of interest accrued in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.8. Term.

(a) Subject to Lender’s right to cease making Revolving Credit Loans to Borrower upon or after any Event of Default, this Agreement shall be in effect for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date, unless terminated as provided in this Section 2.8 (the “Term”), and this Agreement shall be renewed for one-year periods thereafter upon the mutual written agreement of the parties.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Lender may terminate this Agreement without notice upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(c) Upon at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lender (the “Termination Notice Period”), Borrower may terminate this Agreement after the Closing Date, provided however, at the effective date of any termination, Borrower shall pay to Lender (in addition to the then outstanding principal, accrued interest and other Obligations owing under the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents) as yield maintenance for the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the Termination Fee.

Upon determination that any such term is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance funds to Borrower under this Agreement until the parties to this Agreement amend this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a valid and enforceable manner.

Section 9.6. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, which may be withheld in its sole discretion. Lender may sell, assign,

transfer, or participate any or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without notice to or consent of Borrower.

Section 9.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one instrument.

Section 9.8. Interpretation. No provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be interpreted or construed against any party because that party or its legal representative drafted that provision. The titles of the paragraphs of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement. Any pronoun used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include singular and plural and masculine, feminine and neuter gender as the case may be. The words “herein,” “hereof,’” and “hereunder” shall be deemed to refer to this entire Agreement, except as the context otherwise requires.

Section 9.9. Survival of Terms. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, and in any certificates and other instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by Lender and shall survive the making by Lender of the Loans contemplated by this Agreement and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect until all liabilities and obligations of Borrower to Lender are satisfied in full.

Section 9.10. Release of Lender. For and in consideration of the Loan, Borrower, voluntarily, knowingly, unconditionally, and irrevocably, with specific and express intent, for and on behalf of itself and its agents, attorneys, heirs, successors, and assigns (collectively the “Releasing Parties”) does hereby fully and completely release, acquit and forever discharge Lender, and its successors, assigns, heirs, affiliates, subsidiaries, parent companies, principals, directors, officers, employees, shareholders and agents (hereinafter called the “Lender Parties”); and any other person, firm, business, corporation, insurer, or association which may be responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of the Lender Parties, or who may be liable for the injury or damage resulting therefrom (collectively the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, debts, disputes, damages, claims, obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses and demands of any kind whatsoever, at law or in equity, whether matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, vested or contingent, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or inchoate, known or unknown that the Releasing Parties (or any of them) have, whether now or in the future, (whether directly or indirectly) against the Released Parties or any of them. The Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing release is a material inducement __ Lender’s decision to extend to Borrower the financial accommodations hereunder and has been relied upon by Lender in agreeing to make the Loan.

Section 9.11. Time. Whenever Borrower is required to make any payment or perform any act on a Saturday, Sunday, or a legal holiday under the laws of the State of Maryland (__ other jurisdiction where Borrower is required to make the payment or perform the act), the

payment may be made or the act performed on the next Business Day. Time is of the essence in Borrower’s performance under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents.

Section 9.12. Commissions. The transaction contemplated by this Agreement was brought about by Lender and Borrower acting as principals and without any brokers, agents, or finders being the effective procuring cause. Borrower represents that it has not committed Lender to the payment of any brokerage fee, commission, or charge in connection with this transaction. If any such claim is made on Lender by any broker, finder, or agent or other person. Borrower will indemnify, defend, and hold Lender harmless from and against the claim and will defend any action to recover on that claim, at Borrower’s cost and expense, including Lender’s counsel fees. Borrower further agrees that until any such claim or demand is adjudicated in Lender’s favor, the amount demanded will be deemed a liability of Borrower under this Agreement, secured by the Collateral.

Section 9.13. Third Parties. No lights are intended to be created under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document for the benefit of any third party donee, creditor, or incidental beneficiary of Borrower. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as a delegation to Lender of Borrower’s duty of performance, including without limitation Borrower’s duties under any account or contract in which Lender has a security interest.

Section 9.14. Discharge of Borrower’s Obligations. Lender, in its sole discretion, shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower if Borrower fails to do so, to: (i) obtain insurance covering any of the Collateral as required under this Agreement; (ii) pay for the performance of any of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement; (iii) discharge taxes, liens, security interests, or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral in violation of this Agreement unless Borrower is in good faith with due diligence by appropriate proceedings contesting those items; and (iv) pay for the maintenance and preservation of any of the Collateral. Expenses and advances shall be added to the Loan, until reimbursed to Lender and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any such payments and advances by Lender shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of an Event of Default.

Section 9.15. Information to Participants. Lender may divulge to any participant it may obtain in the Loan, or any portion of the Loan, all information, and furnish to such participant copies of reports, financial statements, certificates, and documents obtained under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 9.16. Indemnity. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender, its partners, officers, agents and employees (collectively, “Indemnitee”) from and against any liability, loss, cost, expense, claim, damage, suit, action or proceeding ever suffered or incurred by Lender (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from Borrower’s failure to observe, perform or discharge any of its covenants, obligations, agreements or duties under this Agreement, or from the breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Article IV of this Agreement. In addition, Borrower shall defend Indemnitee against

and save it harmless from all claims of any Person with respect to the Collateral. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, the obligation of Borrower under this Section 9.16 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.17. Lender Approvals. Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any approval, consent, waiver or satisfaction of Lender with respect to any matter that is the subject of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents may be granted or withheld by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion.

Section 9.17. Choice of Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHERWISE APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. IF ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTE IS COMMENCED BY LENDER IN THE STATE COURTS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND OR IN THE U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND, BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY SUCH ACTION AND TO THE LAYING OF VENUE IN THE STATE OF MARYLAND. ANY PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION SHALL BE DULY SERVED IF MAILED BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 9.4. OR IF SERVED BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Section 9.18. Cooperation in Discovery and Litigation. In any litigation, trial, arbitration or other dispute resolution proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, all directors, officers, employees and agents of Borrower or of its Affiliates shall be deemed to be employees or managing agents of Borrower for purposes of all applicable law or court rules regarding the production of witnesses by notice for testimony (whether in a deposition, at trial or otherwise). Borrower will use all commercially reasonable efforts to produce in any such dispute resolution proceeding, at the time and in the manner requested by Lender, all Persons, documents (whether in tangible, electronic or other form) or other things under its control and relating to the dispute in any jurisdiction that recognizes that (or any similar) distinction.

Section 9.19. Waiver of Trial by Jury. BORROWER HEREBY (A) COVENANTS AND AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY A JURY, AND (B) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, BY BORROWER, AND THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED AND REQUESTED TO SUBMIT THIS

AGREEMENT TO ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE SUBJECT MATTER AND THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, SO AS TO SERVE AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF BORROWER’S WAIVER OF THE RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL, FURTHER, BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER (INCLUDING LENDER’S COUNSEL) HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, TO BORROWER THAT LENDER WILL NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION.
