                  25% or more of the combined voting power of the then

                  vote generally in the election of directors (the "Outstanding
                  Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that for
                  purposes of this subsection (1), the following acquisitions
                  shall not constitute a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition

                  by the Corporation, or (v) any acquisition by any corporation
                  pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (i),
                  (ii) and (iii) of subsection (3) of this definition; or

                           (2)      Individuals who, as of the Effective Date,
                  constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any
                  reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board;
                  provided, however, that any individual becoming a director
                  subsequent to the Effective Date whose election, or
                  nomination for election by the Corporation's shareholders,
                  was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the
                  directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be
                  considered as though such individual were a member of the
                  Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such
                  individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a
                  result of an actual or threatened election

                  contest with respect to the election or removal of directors
                  or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or
                  consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

                  consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or
                  substantially all of the assets of the Corporation (a
                  "Business Combination"), in each case, unless, following such
                  Business Combination, (i) all or substantially all of the
                  individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of
                  the Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior

                  indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the
                  then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally
                  in the election of directors of the corporation resulting
                  from such Business Combination (including, without
                  limitation, a corporation which as a result of such
                  transaction owns the Corporation or all or substantially all
                  of the Corporation's assets either directly or through one or
                  more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as
                  their ownership, immediately prior to such Business
                  Combination of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities, and
                  (ii) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such
                  Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related
                  trust) of the Corporation or such corporation resulting from
                  such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or
                  indirectly, 25% or more of the combined voting power of the
                  then outstanding voting securities of such corporation except
                  to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the
                  Business Combination, and (iii) at least a majority of the
                  members of the board of directors of the corporation
                  resulting from such Business Combination were members of the
                  Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial
                  agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such
                  Business Combination.

         mental condition of a Grantee that renders the Grantee incapable of
         performing his customary and usual duties for the Corporation, or any
         medically determinable illness or other physical or mental condition
         resulting from a bodily injury, disease or mental disorder which, in
         the judgment of the Committee, is permanent and continuous in nature.
         The Committee may require such medical or other evidence as it deems
         necessary to judge the nature and permanency of the Grantee's
         condition.

                  "Stock" means the $.01 par value common stock of the
         Corporation and such other securities of the Corporation as may be
         substituted for Stock pursuant to Section 9.

                  "Subsidiary" means any corporation, limited liability
         company, partnership or other entity of which a majority of the
         outstanding voting stock or voting power is beneficially owned
         directly or indirectly by the Corporation.

         3.       Restrictions. The Shares are subject to each of the following
restrictions. "Restricted Shares" mean those Shares which are subject to the
restrictions imposed hereunder which restrictions have not then expired or
terminated. Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, exchanged,
assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered. If the Grantee's
employment with the Corporation or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason
other than as set forth in any of paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4 hereof,
then the Grantee shall forfeit all of the Grantee's right, title and interest
in and to the Restricted Shares as of the date of employment termination.

         The restrictions imposed under this Section shall apply to all shares
of the Corporation's Stock or other securities issued with respect to
Restricted Shares hereunder in connection with any merger, reorganization,
consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend or other change in corporate
structure affecting the common stock of the Corporation.

         4.       Expiration and Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions
imposed under Section 3 will expire or terminate on the earliest to occur of
the following:

                           (a)      As to the Restricted Shares awarded
         hereunder (adjusted proportionately in the event of any change in the
         total numbers of Restricted Shares) at the rate of 1/60 of the
         Restricted Shares on the first day of each calendar month beginning
         February 1, 2000; or

                           (b)      On the first day of the calendar month next
         following the termination of the Grantee's employment with the
         Corporation or any Subsidiary because of his or her death or
         Disability; or


                                     - 3 -
<PAGE>   4

                           (c)      On the effective date of the dissolution or
         liquidation of the Corporation.

         5.       Acceleration of Vesting. Upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control, all restrictions on outstanding Restricted Shares shall lapse;
provided, however that such acceleration will not occur if, in the opinion of
the Corporation's accountants, such acceleration would preclude the use of
"pooling of interest" accounting treatment for a Change in Control transaction
that (i) would otherwise qualify for such accounting treatment, and (ii) is
contingent upon qualifying for such accounting treatment.

         6.       Delivery of Shares. The Shares will be issued in the name of
the Grantee as Restricted Stock and will be held by the Corporation during the
Restricted Period. Stock certificates shall be delivered as soon as practicable
after vesting of the Shares, but may be postponed for such period as may be
required for the Corporation with reasonable diligence to comply if deemed
advisable by the Corporation, with registration requirements under the
Securities Act, listing requirements under the rules of any stock exchange, and
requirements under any other law or regulation applicable to the issuance or
transfer of the Shares. Each certificate for Restricted Shares issued to the
Grantee under this Agreement shall be registered in the name of the Grantee and
shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

         This certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are
subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture and restrictions
against transfer) contained in a Restricted Stock Award Agreement dated January
1, 2000 between the registered owner of the shares represented hereby and
MD2patient, Inc. Release from such terms and conditions shall be made only in
accordance with the provisions of such Agreement, copies of which are on file
in the office of MD2patient, Inc.

         7.       Voting and Dividend Rights. The Grantee, as beneficial owner
of the Shares, shall have full voting and dividend rights with respect to the
Shares during the Restricted Period.

         8.       Restrictions on Transfer and Pledge. The Restricted Shares
may not be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party
other than the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary, or be subject to any
lien, obligation, or liability of the Grantee to any other party other than the
Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary. The Restricted Shares are not assignable
or transferable by the Grantee other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.

         9.       Changes in Capital Structure. In the event a stock dividend is
declared upon the Stock, the shares of Stock then subject to this Agreement
shall be increased proportionately. In the event the Stock shall be changed
into or exchanged for a different number or class of shares of stock or
securities of the Corporation or of another corporation, whether through
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split-up, combination
of shares, merger or consolidation, there shall be substituted for each


                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>   5

such share of Stock then subject to this Agreement the number and class of
shares into which each outstanding share of Stock shall be so exchanged.

         10.      No Right of Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement
shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Corporation or any
Parent or Subsidiary to terminate the Grantee's employment at any time, nor
confer upon the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Corporation
or any Parent or Subsidiary.

         11.      Payment of Taxes.

                  (a)      The Grantee upon issuance of the Shares hereunder,
shall be authorized to make an election to be taxed upon such award under
Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To effect such
election, the Grantee may file an appropriate election with Internal Revenue
Service within thirty (30) days after award of the Shares and otherwise in
accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations.

                  (b)      The Grantee will, no later than the date as of which
any amount related to the Shares first becomes includable in the Grantee's
gross income for federal income tax purposes, pay to the Corporation, or make
other arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any
federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with
respect to such amount. The obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement
will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Corporation, and,
where applicable, its Subsidiaries will, to the extent permitted by law, have
the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due
to the Grantee.

         12.      Amendment. The Committee may amend, modify or terminate this
Agreement without approval of the Grantee; provided, however, that such
amendment, modification or termination shall not, without the Grantee's
consent, reduce or diminish the value of this award determined as if it had
been fully vested on the date of such amendment or termination.

         13.      Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successor
of the Corporation, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

         14.      Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained
in this Agreement are invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions
of this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision had never been included.

         15.      Notice. Notices and communications under this Agreement must
be in writing and either personally delivered or sent by registered or
certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.
Notices to the Corporation must be addressed to:
