Manager ("Proprietary Information"). "Proprietary Information" includes all
information and any idea which a reasonable person would believe is
confidential, in whatever form, tangible or intangible, pertaining in any manner
to the business of Manager or any subsidiary or affiliate of Manager, unless (a)
the information is or

                                      -21-
<PAGE>
 
becomes publicly known through lawful means, (b) the information was rightfully
in Dental Group's possession or part of its general knowledge prior to the
Effective Date or (c) the information is subsequently disclosed to Dental Group
by a third party without breach of this Agreement and without restriction on its
use. Proprietary Information includes, but is not limited to, any and all
computer programs (whether or nor completed or in use) and any and all operating
manuals or similar materials which constitute the non-medical systems, policies
and procedures, and methods of doing business developed by or for the operation
of facilities managed by Manager. Dental Group acknowledges and agrees that
Manager has a proprietary interest in all such Proprietary Information and that

the trade secret property of Manager. Dental Group hereby waives any and all
right, title and interest in and to such Proprietary Information and agrees to
return all copies thereof and Proprietary Information related thereto to
Manager, at Dental Group's expense, upon the termination of this Agreement.

     Dental Group further acknowledges and agrees that Manager is entitled to
prevent its competitors from obtaining and utilizing its Proprietary
Information. Therefore, Dental Group agrees to hold Manager's Proprietary
Information in strictest confidence and not to disclose it or allow it to be
disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any person or entity other than those
persons or entities who are employed by or affiliated with Manager or Dental
Group, without the prior written consent of Manager. Dental Group shall not,
either during the term of this Agreement, or at any time after the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement, disclose to anyone other than persons or
entities who are employed by or affiliated with Manager or Dental Group any
Proprietary Information obtained by Dental Group from Manager, except as
otherwise required by law.

     10.2  Restrictions on Unfair Competition. Dental Group agrees that during
           ----------------------------------
the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years after termination
of this Agreement Dental Group shall not (a) solicit in any way on behalf of
itself or in conjunction with others for the purpose of providing management
services any dental group being managed by or being or having been solicited by
Manager or any subsidiary, affiliate or successor in interest thereof, and (b)
solicit in any way or make offers of employment to, on behalf of itself or in
conjunction with others, any person employed by Manager or any subsidiary,
affiliate or successor in interest thereof. Dental Group acknowledges and agrees
that these restrictions are reasonable and necessary to protect Manager's
Proprietary Information and to ensure that it will not be subject to unfair
competition.

     10.3  Enforcement. Dental Group agrees to require each independent

Group's obligations under this Agreement, to execute a proprietary information
agreement in the form supplied by or approved by Manager pursuant to which they
agree to abide by the restrictions on Dental Group's activities set forth in
this Article 10. Dental Group acknowledges and agrees that a breach of the
provisions of this Article 10 will result in irreparable harm to Manager which

to secure enforcement thereof, in addition to any of the relief or award to
which Manager may be entitled.
