corporation (the “Company”), and CCM&D Consulting, L.L.C. (“Consultant”). The
Company desires to retain Consultant as an independent contractor to perform
consulting services for the Company, and Consultant is willing to perform such
services, on terms set forth more fully below. In consideration of the mutual
promises contained herein, the parties hereto (the “Parties”) agree as follows:

1. SERVICES AND COMPENSATION

(a) Consultant shall open no less than 10 new turnkey medical clinics or
facilities per year for Company during the first year of this Contract.
Consultant’s duties shall include securing a location, providing all capital
build-out, as well as providing consulting and marketing for each new facility
(“Services”).

(b) Company shall fund to Consultant up to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100
Dollars ($250,000.00) in accordance with the budget approved by Company and
Consultant for each new facility opened, in accordance with Schedule A attached
hereto and incorporated herein. Company shall make periodic payments based upon
the percentage of completion of the respective items listed in Schedule A. As
each facility opens, Company shall enter into an exclusive management agreement
with Consultant for the operations and management of the facilities.

2. OWNERSHIP Company or an affiliate shall own 100% of each facility. The
facilities will be operated under the name of Union Treatment Center.

3. MANAGEMENT FEE

3.1 AMOUNT OF MANAGEMENT FEE. COMPANY agrees to pay a Management Fee to
CONSULTANT in an amount equal to forty (40%) percent of the aggregate net
operating profit for each clinic opened, if any. Net operating profit shall be
the net revenue received by CONSULTANT less expenses within the operating budget
for each clinic approved by COMPANY and CONSULTANT. The aggregate total
operating profit (or loss) of all of the clinics shall be calculated for each
month, and the Management Fee shall be calculated based on that number Either
party, not more than four times in any twelve month period, upon giving notice
to the other party hereto, shall have the right to inspect the records of
CONSULTANT to ascertain and audit Revenues Collected, COMPANY’S Expenses, and
CONSULTANT’s Expenses, subject to patient confidentiality laws. If the audit or
examination discloses that the Management Fee was incorrectly computed or any
expense improperly classified, the parties shall within twenty (20) days of such
determination reconcile the difference by a cash payment to the applicable
party. In all events, a reconciliation of the preceding year shall occur
following the preparation of annual financial statements.

3.2 PAYMENT OF MANAGEMENT FEE. The Management Fee will be paid in full by the
30th day of the month following each month that management services have been
provided during the Term of this Agreement. Payment of the Management Fee is not
intended to be, and shall not be, interpreted or applied as permitting
CONSULTANT to share in COMPANY’s fees for Professional Services or any other
services, but is acknowledged as the parties’ negotiated agreement as to the
reasonable, fair market value of the support, services, personnel, management,
administration, and other items and services furnished by CONSULTANT under this
Agreement, considering the nature and volume of the services the risks assumed
by CONSULTANT.
